Love in the Time of Dating Apps
February 10, 2016
Hang on for a minute...we're trying to find some more stories you might like.
Email This Story
At one point in time, online dating was seen as a last ditch effort only utilized by the lonely and desperate. Now, as we sit on the cusp of 2016, we can get anything essential online—clothes, food, and, most notably, a date.
Internet dating has been gaining popularity since the first dating site, Match.com, was launched in 1995. At the time of its creation, online dating was regarded warily, a service that only those who were desperate for companionship used. However, after garnering public acceptance with the Tom Hanks film You've Got Mail in 1998, online dating sites began to get heavier foot traffic, and now, more than one third of U.S. marriages begin with online dating, according to a study from the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences conducted in 2013.
It's become more and more common to meet a significant other, or even a hookup, through dating websites and, more recently, dating apps. Most popular among the millennial crowd is Tinder, an app created in 2011, which gained half a million users in 2013 after marketing to the college crowd. According to Dating Site Reviews, 1.5 million in-person dates stem from Tinder each week; more than half of those make it to a second date.
Given this information, it'd be interesting to see why anyone wouldn't be in full support of this new wave of dating, especially on college campuses. Dating apps give those who suffer from social anxiety the same chance as those social butterflies to find love—or at least a decent hookup. Using an app to find a potential date on campus is a good way to figure out who's eligible; if nothing else, it's a good way to meet new people and make new friends.
Dating apps force you to go outside of your comfort zone while simultaneously allowing you to keep your guard up for as long as you want. Approaching someone you find attractive can, arguably, be the most nerve-wracking aspect of dating. Through a dating app, this part can be done with a swipe to the right and a simple message. You don't have to worry if the person you're messaging is interested in you—the fact that you matched up in the first place is the first indicator that, barring any personality conflicts, the two of you are at least mildly interested in each other in a non-platonic way.
The best part about these dating apps is that, if after a few days spent talking through text, you decide you don't feel particularly comfortable meeting in person, you don't have to. You always have the choice to say no, and no is always a complete sentence; you don't have to offer an explanation to why you chose not to meet up for coffee.
Most importantly, dating apps feed into how lazy we are. We want love—or sex—and we want it now! So rather than heading to the bar where you'll have to down four shots before working up the nerve to talk to guy in the white shirt, you can do so from the comfort of your own bed as you eat pizza and watch Netflix.
Of course, using dating apps on campus does have the potential to put you in a possibly awkward position; at any given moment, you can bump into a person you've swiped right on but haven't yet spoken to. If he catches your eye, prepare for a few moments of timidly smiling and playing with your hair as you hope he thinks you look even prettier in person that you do in the pictures you painstakingly made a pro and con list to choose. Even worse, there's the possibility of bumping into the guy or girl you did start talking to, but promptly blocked after he or she started spewing sexually suggestive comments that you were less than comfortable with. Expect a few shuffling moments where eye contacted is averted as you reach around him to grab a packet of Splenda—because god forbid you ask him to pass it to you.
Safety is always a factor to consider when meeting someone for the first time, especially a person you met through an app. Meeting someone from a dating app who goes to your university has its perks: it allows you to ask around about this person, find out some more information about him or her, and see if some of the identifying information she or he listed on the app lines up. Of course, if you are planning to meet someone you met on a dating app, be smart about it. Meet him in a public place, and make sure your friends know where you're going. The chances of anything happen are slim, and meeting someone new for the first time is exciting, especially when you're not exactly sure how things will turn out. One date could lead to another, which can lead to another—but through the excitement, always make your well being a priority. Never let the prospect of something great overshadow the importance of keeping yourself safe.
Despite the awkward encounters that dating apps pose, and those few and far between dangers, they prove to be more helpful than they do harmful. They are perfect for the shy and the socially awkward, and they allow their users to move at a pace that he or she is comfortable with.

Micron Constructing New Cleanroom For 3D NAND Fabrication R&D In Singapore
Subject: General Tech | April 9, 2018 - 11:20 PM | Tim Verry
Tagged: micron, manufacturing, IMFT NAND, flash memory, fab, cleanroom, 64-Layer, 3d nand
Micron Technologies recently began construction on a multi-billion-dollar cleanroom facility for research and development of its 3D NAND technologies. The new facility is being built adjacent to Micron's existing NAND fabrication complex at 1 North Coast Drive where Micron invested $4 Billion to expand in 2016. Micron did not disclose its exact investment in the new cleanroom space except to say that it was a multi-billion-dollar project.
Micron's expanded 300mm 3D NAND manufacturing complex is part of its NAND Center of Excellence, and the new facility that is under construction will expand the company's ability to increase its research and development efforts and allow Micron to push "even more intricate designs" according to Sanjay Mehrotra (Micron President and CEO). for its 3D flash memory. The new facility will be staffed by the new hires which will mainly be engineers and technicians specializing in 3D NAND manufacturing and will include as many as 600 fresh graduates.
Construction of the new manufacturing and cleanroom space is slated for completion in mid-2019 with initial wafer output by the fourth quarter of next year. Unfortunately, this facility is not intended to add additional wafer capacity (at least at this time) so those hoping for increased supply of NAND chips and cheaper SSDs will have to keep waiting. Rather, this facility is going to be used for R&D and its manufacturing will be used to produce more advanced flash and experiment with new manufacturing methods for increasingly complicated stacked and denser die designs instead of beefing up supply of its current memory chips that are being used in current products.
Satellite view of Micron's existing 300mm NAND fabrication facility in northern Singapore.
Along with the new 3D NAND facility, Micron will be adding 1,000 new jobs to its existing workforce in Singapore of 7,500 over the next five years per a deal with Singapore's Economic Development Board. Business Times and Channel News Asia note that over the past 20 years Micron has invested heavily in Singapore – north of $20 billion.
I am glad to see Micron pushing forward with its 3D NAND especially following the breakup with Intel wherein the two companies have decided to complete the development of third generation 3D NAND together and then to develop 3D NAND independently. Interestingly, Intel and Micron did not totally dissolve the IMFT joint venture as they will continue collaborating on 3D XPoint at the fab in Lehi, Utah which according to Intel is now entirely focused on XPoint memory. That was something I was curious about when first reading of the breakup early this year and happened to come across when writing this story. That press release notes that Intel and Micron are currently producing second generation 64-layer IMFT flash and developing higher density third generation flash which is slated for production next year (after which Micron and Intel will go their separate ways on NAND), so this may be a major reason for Micron building out new multi-billion-dollar fab space for NAND R&D.
Introduction, Specifications and Packaging
Samsung launched their 850 line of SSDs in mid-2014 (over three years ago now). The line evolved significantly over time, with the additions of PRO and EVO models, capacity expansions reaching up to 4TB, and a later silent migration to 64-layer V-NAND. Samsung certainly got their money's worth out of the 850 name, but it is now time to move onto something newer:
Of note above is a significantly higher endurance rating as compared to the 850 Series products, along with an update to a new 'MJX' controller, which accounts for a slight performance bump across the board. Not mentioned here is the addition of queued TRIM, which is more of a carryover from the enterprise / Linux systems (Windows 10 does not queue its TRIM commands).
Aside from some updated specs and the new name, packaging remains very much the same.
Read on for our review of the Samsung 860 PRO and EVO SSDs (in multiple capacities!)

FMS 2017: Samsung Announces QLC V-NAND, 16TB NGSFF SSD, Z-SSD V2, Key Value

As is typically the case for Flash Memory Summit, the Samsung keynote was chock full of goodies:
Samsung kicked off by stating there are a good 5 years of revisions left in store for their V-NAND line, each with a corresponding increase in speed and capacity.
While V-NAND V4 was 64-layer TLC, V5 is a move to QLC, bringing per die capacity to 1Tbit (128 GB per die).
If you were to stack 32 of these new V5 dies per package, and do so in a large enough 2.5" housing, that brings the maximum capacity of such a device to a whopping 128TB!
Samsung also discussed a V2 of their Z-NAND, moving from SLC to MLC while only adding 2-3 us of latency per request. Z-NAND is basically a quicker version of NAND flash designed to compete with 3D XPoint.
M.2 SSDs started life with the working title of NGFF. Fed up with the limitations of this client-intended form factor for the enterprise, Samsung is pushing a slightly larger NGSFF form factor that supports higher capacities per device. Samsung claimed a PM983 NGSFF SSD will hold 16TB, a 1U chassis full of the same 576TB, and a 2U chassis pushing that figure to 1.15PB.
Last up is 'Key Value'. This approach allows the flash to be accessed more directly by the application layer, enabling more efficient use of the flash and therefore higher overall performance.
There were more points brought up that we will be covering later on, but for now here is the full press release that went out during the keynote: (after the break)
A new challenger appears; Toshiba's XG5 is hot on Samsung's heels
Subject: Storage | July 24, 2017 - 05:01 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: toshiba, ssd, ocz, NVMe, nand, M.2, XG5, BiCS, 64-Layer
We first saw Toshiba's XG5 M.2 SSD at Computex this year but as of yet we have not had a chance to review it. The Tech Report on the other hand did get their mitts on the 512GB model of this drive and they put it through its paces in this review right here. Their results show a drive that beats OCZs' RD400 across the board and is impinging on Samsung's 960 Pro and EVO, though they are not quite there yet. The next generation will improve on performance which should spur Samsung to new heights with their next NVMe product. At the start of the article is some history on the current state of Toshiba which is worth checking out if you are not familiar with what is going on there.
"Toshiba's XG5 NVMe SSD is shipping to the company's OEM partners now. We run it through our test suite to see if the company's newfangled 64-layer BiCS NAND helps it compete with the best in the business."

We first heard about the Toshiba XG5 1TB NVMe SSD at Computex, with its 64 layer BiCS flash and stated read speeds of 3GB/s, writes just over 2 GB/s. Today Kitguru published a review of the new drive, including ATTO results which match and even exceed the advertised read and write speeds. Their real world test involved copying 30GB of movies off of a 512GB Samsung 950 Pro to the XG5, only Samsung's new 960 lineup and the OCZ RD400 were able to beat Toshiba's new SSD. Read more in their full review, right here.
"The Toshiba XG5 1TB NVMe SSD contains Toshiba's newest 3D 64-Layer BiCS memory and our report will examine Toshiba's newest memory, as well as their newest NVMe controller to go along with it."

Introduction, Specifications and Packaging
Today Intel is launching a new line of client SSDs - the SSD 545S Series. These are simple, 2.5" SATA parts that aim to offer good performance at an economical price point. Low-cost SSDs is not typically Intel's strong suit, mainly because they are extremely rigorous on their design and testing, but the ramping up of IMFT 3D NAND, now entering its second generation stacked to 64-layers, should finally help them get the cost/GB down to levels previously enjoyed by other manufacturers.
Intel and Micron jointly announced 3D NAND just over two years ago, and a year ago we talked about the next IMFT capacity bump coming as a 'double' move. Well, that's only partially happening today. The 545S line will carry the new IMFT 64-layer flash, but the capacity per die remains the same 256Gbit (32GB) as the previous generation parts. The dies will be smaller, meaning more can fit on a wafer, which drives down production costs, but the larger 512Gbit dies won't be coming until later on (and in a different product line - Intel told us they do not intend to mix die types within the same lines as we've seen Samsung do in the past).
There are no surprises here, though I am happy to see a 'sustained sequential performance' specification stated by an SSD maker, and I'm happier to see Intel claiming such a high figure for sustained writes (implying this is the TLC writing speed as the SLC cache would be exhausted in sustained writes).
I'm also happy to see sensical endurance specs for once. We've previously seen oddly non-scaling figures in prior SSD releases from multiple companies. Clearly stating a specific TBW 'per 128GB' makes a lot of sense here, and the number itself isn't that bad, either.
Simplified packaging from Intel here, apparently to help further reduce shipping costs.
Computex 2017: Toshiba Launches XG5 NVMe Client SSD With 64-Layer BiCS Flash
Subject: Storage | May 30, 2017 - 09:00 AM | Allyn Malventano
Tagged: toshiba, ssd, ocz, NVMe, nand, M.2, computex 2017, BiCS, 64-Layer
Last night we saw WD launch the first client SSDs with 64-layer NAND Flash, but recall that WD/SanDisk is in partnership with Toshiba to produce this new gen 3 BiCS memory, which means Toshiba is also launching their own product wrapped around this new high-density flash:
Enter the Toshiba XG5. It is certainly coming on strong here, as evidenced by the specs:
Unlike the WD/SanDisk launch, the BiCS flash on this Toshiba variant sits behind an NVMe SSD controller, with stated read speeds at 3GB/s and writes just over 2 GB/s. We don't yet have random performance figures, but we expect it to certainly be no slouch given the expected performance of this newest generation of flash memory. Let's take a quick look at some of the high points there:
Alright, so we have the typical things you'd expect, like better power efficiency and higher endurance, but there is a significant entry there under the performance category - 1-shot, full sequence programming. This is a big deal, since writing to flash memory is typically done in stages, with successive program cycles nudging cell voltages closer to their targets with each pass. This takes time and is one of the main things holding back the write speeds of NAND flash. This new BiCS is claimed to be able to successfully write in a single program cycle, which should translate to noticeable improvements in write latency.
Another thing helping with writes is that the XG5 will have its BiCS flash operating in a hybrid mode, meaning these are TLC SSDs with an SLC cache. We do not have confirmed cache sizes to report, but it's a safe bet that they will be similar to competing products.
We don't yet have pricing info, but we do know that the initial capacity offerings will start with 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB offerings. The XG5 is launching in the OEM channel in the second half of 2017. While this one is an OEM product, remember that OCZ is Toshiba's brand for client SSDs, so there's a possibility we may see a retail variant appear under that name in the future.
FMS 2016: Samsung To Announce 64-Layer 4th Gen V-NAND, 32TB 2.5" SSD

At a huge press event like Flash Memory Summit, being in the right place at the right time (and with the right camera), matters greatly. I'll just let a picture say a thousand words for me here:
..now this picture has been corrected for extreme parallax and was taken in far from ideal conditions, but you get the point. Samsung's keynote is coming up later today, and I have a hunch this will be a big part of what they present. We did know 64-Layer was coming, as it was mentioned in Samsung's last earnings announcement, but confirmation is nice.
*edit* now that the press conference has taken place, here are a few relevant slides:
With 48-Layer V-NAND announced last year (and still rolling out), it's good to see Samsung pushing hard into higher capacity dies. 64-Layer enables 512Gbits (64GB) per die, and 100MB/s per die maximum throughput means even lower capacity SSDs should offer impressive sequentials.

64-Layer is Samsung's 4th generation of V-NAND. We've seen 48-Layer and 32-Layer, but few know that 24-Layer was a thing (but was mainly in limited enterprise parts).
We will know more shortly, but for now, dream of even higher capacity SSDs :)
*edit* and this just happened:
*additional edit* - here's a better picture taken after the keynote:
The 32TB model in their 2.5" form factor displaces last years 16TB model. The drive itself is essentially identical, but the flash packages now contain 64-layer dies, doubling the available capacity of the device.

Reply To: Need encouragement…17 weeks into treatment and still so bad!
Home › The Candida Forum › Candida Questions › Need encouragement…17 weeks into treatment and still so bad! › Reply To: Need encouragement…17 weeks into treatment and still so bad!
I was diagnosed with seborrheic dermatitis 5 years ago, but as it was quite mild, I managed to control it with creams and, of course, I have never heard of Candida at that time. Seb dermatitis has always been my main symptom. It has become much worse over years. My lab results confirmed that I have a very high candida infestation, that's when my living hell started. I was on a strict forum diet for 4 months, but I didn't have much progress due to severe die-off mainly affecting my face skin. I could only tolerate small doses of relatively week probiotics, I couldn't drink kefir at all and antifungals made me look like walking dead with raw meat face. It has never been this bad in my life. It was awfully itchy and was pretty much all over my face, t-zone, forehead, eyebrows, eyelids, cheeks, neck, chest and my back.
I couldn't leave the house for weeks, so I've decided to stick to the diet and probiotics and leave all antifungals out until I get better, because even though I have candida in my life I also have full-time job and part-time study, so I needed my "face" to make my living.
What helped me a lot were Chinese herbs. I found a Chinese herbalist who gave me mixture of dry herbs which I had to simmer for 30 min twice a day and drink after. The taste and the smell of those herbs are absolutely disgusting, but after almost two months of drinking it I barely have any flare-ups. I still get random itchy spots on my skin now and then especially after increasing the dose of probiotics or herbs, but all my "raw skin" patches and "sand paper" skin have gone. This herbalist has also mentioned that people with skin problems caused by candida tend to release the toxins through their skin, while herbs are working the way so your body starts getting rid of them through your stool. Which is true, they make you go to toilet quite often. I was told not to take any antifungals as herbs themselves have antifungals properties.
I know it won't cure Candida completely, but at least now my body is ready for stronger antifungals. I have recently started taking Saccharomyces boulardii and I am drinking a pint of kefir daily without any problems, which means I am getting better.
I am still on a diet, but I was advised by few doctors to eat fruit with low GI, as they are needed for immune system, they all are talking about a very low mucosa immune system of those who suffer with yeast overgrowth which apparently allows fungi to settle on us easily. I tried to eat a bit of blueberries and green apples, but I get sort of hives after them, so no more experiments with fruit for me for time being.
And yes, I feel very isolated all the time, no work drinks, no parties, no meals out. I'm always paranoid people are judging my face. I become a mirror addict and always thinking about my face, even when it looks decent. But I refuse to give up. I will get cured one day no matter how long it will take.

We have been through a very dry period; five months without significant rain. This week heavy rain has been forecast but on our patch it seems to elude. Some rain has fallen, and that has been wonderful, so that there is a faint greening in the dust out front and the tanks are filled. Even more exciting is to see that winter bare is
being replaced by the kiss of Spring

When glass in windows is subjected to double glazing to prevent heat from escaping, the result is thermally insulated and energy efficient windows. At Impala Glass Industries, Kenya, low emissivity or low-e glass is a combination of toughened safety glass, wide spacer bars, argon fill sealed units and low-E coatings which absorbs the heat from the inside of the building and radiates it onto the colder outside surface, where it is lost. This low-e coating actually reflects the heat back into your room. Filling the gap between the glass panes with a low-conductivity gas such as argon improves window performance by reducing conductive and convective heat transfers.
At Impala we manufacture eco-friendly, double glazed glass for windows, doors, conservatories and rooflights which is ideal to help keep the heat in, save money on energy bills and play your role to protect the depleting ozone layer.
Engineers, architects and designers prefer Impala's eco-friendly double glazed low-e glass for homes and offices, as well as buildings with a high proportion of windows or glass doors, especially north or east facing windows.
Soreduce the amount of energy lost through your windows by up to 75%! The smarter, eco-friendlier and cost-efficient option is always Impala Glass Industries' double glazed glass units. To view our complete range of glass products log onto impala.co.ke.

The Phase 3 clinical trial followed more than 600 patients split into two groups: one that was given Keytruda with a standard chemotherapy treatment and a control group that only received the chemotherapy.
Cancer patients should be given immunotherapy as the first line of treatment following the results of "game-changing" trials, charities say.
Two thirds were given immunotherapy drugs combined with chemotherapy while...
Medical experts have already been using immunotherapy to treat different types of cancers.
"Non-small cell lung cancer is actually the leading cause of cancer death in the world even though it's not the most common cancer", said Dr. Leena Gandhi, lead investigator of the study and director of the thoracic medical oncology program at Perlmutter Cancer Center at NYU Langone Health.
"It's a big deal", Dr. Roy Herbst, head of medical oncology at the Yale Cancer Center, told Shots.
The idea of turning the immune system against cancer got a big boost over the last few days, with a trio of studies showing the approach's effectiveness against lung cancer.
But trials over the last five years have repeatedly shown more uses for immune therapy in lung cancer, and the new research confirms that almost all lung cancer patients will now receive immune therapy, said Patrick Forde, the first author on one of the studies and a lung cancer specialist at Johns Hopkins Medical.
Another rival, Genentech, recently announced that its checkpoint inhibitor, Tecentriq, improved survival in a study similar to the one testing Keytruda. Herbst compares it with inflammation around a cut, which marshals the immune system into action, only in this case the wound being targeted is debris from dead cancer cells.
Immuno-chemotherapy combo extends lung cancer victim's survival period, says the latest comprehensive study.
Scientists who werent involved in the study agreed that it was highly significant. Patients with those mutations (called EGFR and ALK) were not included in this study, and instead were referred to treatment with the drugs that target their mutation.
Results of the study are expected to change how 70,000 patients are treated each year in the United States whose lung cancer has already spread by the time it is found, according to AP.
Results were discussed Monday at an American Association for Cancer Research conference in Chicago and published by the New England Journal of Medicine. "A matter of months, not years", she said.
The hope is that such early treatment, when the patient is still quite healthy, will train their immune system to keep fighting off the cancer long-term, Forde said. The estimated proportion of patients in the combination therapy group who were alive and whose disease had not gotten worse at a year was about 34 percent, about double the proportion for the chemo-only group.
"What we look at in these trials is overall survival - how long patients live - and we look at a number called the median survival - how long 50% of patients live", said Gomez.
And for those with neither a lot of mutations nor a lot of immune cells, chemotherapy plus Keytruda seems to be the best choice, he said.
For non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer patients, median survival with chemotherapy alone is somewhere around 11 or 12 months, he said.
The median time until cancer worsened was about 7 months on the immunotherapy drugs versus 5.5 months for chemo.

Please reply with your favorite position in the subject heading line so I know that you are real. long distance relationship? ? Long distance relationships are so much better than regular relationships honestly. You actually fall in love with every single part of this person. Hearing their voice every day becomes so much more special than in regular relationships. It's not all about the stuff,it's not about all the stuff everyone has now. You get to know this person better than anyone you ever could in person. Yeah it sucks not being able to hold them and kiss them and be with them,but when that time comes you it so much more because you know what it's like not have to have that. This is what I'm seeking! I'm from the knoxville area and while I have dated here I haven't found what I wanted. On a suggestion from friends I am seeking outside my general area. I'm excited for the possibilities of what may happen. A little about me: im single white female. I'm x years old and have a job that I love. I spend my weekends either spending time with my family and friends. I try to fill up my weekends doing things that I love. However,I do enjoy some down time at home. My family and friends mean the world to me and truly are solid ground when I feel I'm falling. I have a sassy sense of humor. I'm comfortable talking about anything and can make people feel at ease. I work hard for what I have but I definitely do know how to have fun! I believe we are all looking for that perfect connection. The connection that is not only ,because that's so common these days. But the mental and emotional connection. The 'full package' if you will,a love that is a partnership of xxx unique people. People who bring out the very best in each other. Who know that even though they are wonderful as individuals,they are even better together! This is something I'm truly seeking! I'm seeking someone older. I typiy go for someone in the range. Please have a good career and stability,etc. I offer these things and I feel it's only fair that the man brings the same to the table. Also,someone who is attracted to a smaller bbw if you will. Even though I dislike that phrase. Please capture my attention with your response. This does not mean that I need to several pictures of you ! I know I'm asking for a lot of someone from a ad. However,I have confidence that there is at least xxx guy out there seeking the same.

Here are some tips and training videos that I have found helpful. I have appreciated them as both a pet care professional and pet owner!
**I am not a professional trainer. Training a dog, especially an individual that deals with fear, takes infinite time and patience! The people in these videos are professional trainers and behaviorists. If you have a dog that exhibits behavior that can compromise his physical or psychological well being or the safety of others, we recommend consulting with a professional trainer or animal behaviorist. We at Rubs and Walkies have worked with and recommend positive reinforcement training only!**
In this video, Patricia McConnell, Ph.D. illustrates a technique I have used when another dog (that is off leash) has approached me and my dogs . It is one of the methods I will use to keep your dog(s) safe when on a walk!
Does your dog pull on a walks? Here is something that
will help. I use the easy walk harness and absolutely love it. In my experience it has proven more effective than choke or pinch collars.
If you are interested in the gentle leader here is an effective, yet gentle way to introduce it to your dog. Jean Donaldson uses desensitization and targeting to get her dog conditioned to actually enjoy wearing it!
Help with getting your dog to walk on a loose leash from Victoria Stillwell!
Positive Reinforcement with Victoria Stillwell :)
In this video, the trainer changes a Pitt Bull's negative emotional response to a vacuum cleaner (counter conditioning). Daisy is initially VERY afraid, until she realized that a vacuum cleaner means good things happen for her and there is nothing to fear. This is a great example of positive reward training!
This video is similar to the Pitt Bull and the vacuum, but deals with a dog that is reactive towards other dogs while on a leash. Our male Italian Greyhound experiences barrier frustration and exhibits aggressive behavior due to his fear. Although, we do not use the gentle leader, this is another great example of effective positive reinforcement training!

I was listening to NPR recently and heard a pastor in Maryland talking about protecting marriage (aka, keeping gay marriages illegal). His stance on the issue was that our country established the separation of Church and State so that the government was not allowed to invade the Church, which arguably has already happened since we fly the American flag on our pulpits. When studying British history, we can see that this was a reality which led to the separation being necessary. It's not bad to keep government out of religion so that there is no use of religion to control the people.
The issue at stake here is that there is a longer history of the Church and the State's relationship in mainland Europe and it is not one that only experienced the Government's takeover of the Church. The vice-versa that was also realized in the rest of Europe was a heavy reality of the Church controlling the State in mainland Europe for much of the time from the day that Constantine legalized Christianity for the Roman Empire to the time of the Reformation and even to more recent history in the Western world.
The truth of the matter is that separation of Church and State comes from enlightenment models that saw both realities. Our nation's concepts are based on this model. This is not much different from the Early Church and the New Testament. The believers of this early time were caught between the Jews, who did not take kindly to hearing that a human was divine or that the Messiah had been killed, and the Romans, who did not like new religions because they could be a sign of rebellion against the Empire. In this setting, Christians attempted to gain acceptance by the Empire and convince Jews and pagans to join their religion without using legal power. From that analysis, we can see that the Christian faith can exist in a very pluralistic setting, even to the point of being a minority.
One might assume that this means God must exit politics. This is not true. God is very interactive in humanity. Therefore, he must be interactive with politics. With that said, it also does not mean the Church should take over politics in a legal sense. The example of homosexuality is one that is commonly used in the legal setting. We must remember that the Church exists to baptize and make disciples (Matt. 28:18-20). This verse is explicitly missional, but it is not militant. Note the order in which disciples are made. First they are baptized (brought into the faith) and then taught the ways of God. This order has been reversed by those who wish to use law to legislate the moral practices (and I only mean ones that more neutrally affect the world). The consensual practices taken by people must be allowed to be judged by Christ and not human law when they do not necessarily affect the well-being of non-consenting parties. This is paralleled by the fact that the early church existed in a very pagan society that viewed the sexual relationships between men as proper. Though Scriptures are very adamant that Christians do not take part in these acts, it recognizes the order of conversion followed by being taught and then following the commands of God. They did not teach the vice-versa practice being implemented today by the Religious Right.
One might now quote Tony Evans, a preacher who holds my respect, in saying, "Separating God from politics is like separating God from history." That point is good. There are many things that we should do that influence and inspire politics. One might also make the point that if God must be in politics, then we should vote for the party that most reflects the Scriptural values. To those people, we should say that they are right in saying that, but the reality is that no party has completely fulfilled Scripture. Even Pastor Evans has said that "God does not fully align himself with any of man's kingdoms."
The main point here is to be careful in who you preach to vote for, whether Republican or Democrat. Both are accountable to God and His judgment. And we must be careful judging those who vote differently from us. And we must not take the pluralism as a threat, but as an opportunity to convince others that our God is great, mighty, and worth following. It will take some hard work to convince some like Muslims, Homosexuals, Atheists, and others, but it will be worth their true belief and submission to God and much better than forced submission without belief, which is not salvation, but legalism.
Below is a slide show of some people who have made comments on politics and religion that are important. They are very thought provoking. Let the messages sink in and challenge this election day.

Is an Annuity right for you?
A deferred annuity from United Heritage Life Insurance Company, is designed to allow you to accumulate funds for retirement and enjoy the benefits of tax deferral. Saving for retirement is crucial, and making sure your resources last throughout your lifetime is just as important. Annuities can do both by helping you save for retirement and by offering you a guaranteed stream of income you cannot outlive. Annuities are long-term contracts. Annuities are the only financial planning tool that can help you save and provide you with a variety of payout options, including an income that is guaranteed for the rest of your life, no matter how long you live.
United Heritage offers:
Tax Deferred Annuities
Tax deferred annuities are specially designed for retirement savings. It is a contract between you and the insurance company for a guaranteed interest bearing policy with guaranteed income options. The insurance company credits interest earnings on your premium, and you don't pay taxes on the interest earnings until you make a withdrawal from your annuity or begin receiving regularly scheduled income from your annuity.
Single Premium Immediate Annuity
Single Premium Immediate Annuity is a contract between you and United Heritage Life Insurance Company. By paying a single sum of money to United Heritage, you are guaranteed to receive a series of payments over a specified period of time, or for the rest of your life. Once your contract is issued, your payments are guaranteed for the duration of your contract. Contracts can be for a fixed period of time, or for the life of the annuitant(s).Contact us for an agent in your area

Finding time to continue her writing in the midst of raising her family, Shields once described herself as ''the mother who typed.'', she often wrote about the lives of women and their experience of the domestic, everyday realities which make up a life.
She is perhaps best known for her 1993 novel The Stone Diaries, which won the U.S. Pulitzer Prize for Fiction as well as the Governor General's Award in Canada. There is an Orkney connection within the novel as one of the characters returns to his birthplace in Orkney from Canada after his wife leaves him.
Sadly Carol Shields died in 2003, she had written 10 novels, 3 collections of stories and 3 volumes of poetry. Her daughter Anne Giardini is also a writer. Giardini has contributed to the National Post as a columnist, and has published two novels, The Sad Truth About Happiness and Advice for Italian Boys.
We also have The Sad Truth About Happiness in stock if you want to see if/how Giardini's writing has been influenced by her mother's literary legacy.

Resistance. In an actual transformer the primary as well secondary winding possess some resistance due to which some voltage drop takes place in them.
Magnetic leakage. Magnetic flux cannot be confined into a desired path. The greater portion of the flux (i.e., the mutual flux) remains confined to the core and links both the windings but a small portion, called the leakage flux, completes its path through the air surrounding the coils. As shown in Fig. 22 each of the winding is associated with a leakage flux. Since the path of the leakage flux is
largely in air the leakage flux and the voltage induced by it vary linearly with the current. The primary leahage flux varies linearly with the primary current and the secondary leakage flux varies linearly with the secondary current. The effect of primary leakage may be simulated by assigning to the primary a leakage inductance (equal to primary leakage flux per ampere of primary current). The
reactance corresponding to this primary leakage inductance (i.e. 21Πf × primary leakage inductance) is known as primary leakage reactance X1. Similarly the effect of secondary leakage flux may be simulated by a secondary leakage inductance and the corresponding leakage reactance X2.
The terminal voltage V1 applied to the primary must have a component jI1 X1 to balance the primary leakage e.m.f. Similarly V2 i.e. the output voltage from secondary will be less than the induced e.m.f. E2 by a component jI2 X2 to account for the secondary leakage flux.
A transformer with winding resistance and magnetic leakage is equivalent to an idea transformer (having no resistance and leakage resistance) having resistive and inductive coil connected in series with each winding as shown in Fig. 23.

Relevant life insurance: Smart returns, tax savings
February 28, 2018
As a well aware, web Savvy specialist, you ought to be aware of the requirement of the life insurance policy you need in order to safeguard your family's financial life. Nowadays, the conditions of the Income Tax Act offer you provisions below which you are able to purchase life insurance policy create returns and save taxation also. A number of Individuals today search for insurance programs on the internet and zero in on a life insurance program that is providing best yields, at present. Is that the ideal strategy? Well, it is fine to investigate and come to understand more about the greatest possible life insurance program.
However, here is your trap. A lot of individuals just put all the insurance money into a single policy. Some insurance brokers can recommend you to do this. They could show you an internet account of a few of the customers who has established returns to the tune of Rs 25 40 percent annually. Beware these are largely fake accounts that are utilized to mislead customers. Alas, many insurance companies fall into the snare. People Today buy life Insurance policies with a premium amount of up to Rs 1 – 1.5 lakh and anticipate that this can bring fantastic returns.
It is not advisable at all. You have to spread your risks and receive various kinds of policies. Since section 80C of the Income Tax Act provides for tax deductions up to Rs 1.5 lakh, it is possible to readily purchase a number of coverage's. Below are a few helpful methods to increase your insurance premiums.
Get A mixture of private and public sector insurance firms: Public sector insurance companies are famous for their great claim compensation ratios. At precisely the exact same time, they have a notorious picture of generating very low levels of returns. Do not be shocked when an LIC policy gets less than 4 5 percent returns annually. Assuming that you are a young professional at the era between 25 40 decades, you can purchase a coverage of not greater than 25 percent of your complete insurance corpus. If You have Got a Conventional P11D Benefit in Kind and Life Insurance plan in the public sector undertaking, you should prefer minimal allocation to bond funds. You are able to devote some 5 percent in bonds and remainder in equity based capital. You can go for a mixture Of blue chip and mid cap funds. This approach automatically balances your dangers and creates outstanding returns in the long term.

New Life For Medicare
The patient is still critical. The Medicare trust fund is still hemorrhaging money. But the insolvency date, at 2001 two years ago and 2008 last year, has now been rolled back to 2015.
Health and Human Services Secretary Donna Shalala said "In the last two years, we have extended the life of the trust fund by a full 14 years and cut the actuarial deficit by 66 percent."
Shalala also said that Social Security's insolvency date has also been pushed back, by two years, to 2034.
It's the economy that's come to the rescue. Low unemployment has meant more workers are contributing to the programs. Low inflation has meant smaller cost-of-living benefit increases and cheaper healthcare costs.
Social Security is the largest federal benefit program, sending checks to 44 million Americans. In addition to payments to retirees, Social Security makes payments to the disabled and the survivors of workers who die young.
Because most members of the huge Baby Boom generation - people born from 1946 through 1964 - are still working, Social Security now collects more payroll taxes than are needed to pay benefits to current retirees. The surpluses are invested in government bonds.
The program will not need to start cashing in those investments until 2014, a year later than estimated in 1998, trustees said. At that time, Baby Boomers will have begun retiring. It's projected that the taxes paid by those left in the work force will not cover Baby Boomers' benefits.
"This really is a remarkable transformation we have had," said Treasury Secretary Robert Rubin.
It is the second consecutive year that stronger-than-expected economic growth has added new years of life to the retirement programs.
Some experts speculate the good news will make lawmakers contemplating changes to Social Security and Medicare feel less pressure to rush into any dramatic changes.
President Clinton and Republicans in Congress have pledged to try to make changes aimed at strengthening both programs this year.
So far, however, little agreement exists about how best to do that. Among the options: adding more money from government surpluses or from tax increases; trimming benefits; raising the retirement age; or partially privatizing the programs.
But analysts say the problems are still there and facing up to them is inevitable.
Gail Fosler of the Conference Board said, "It's like the train that's headed towards you in the tunnel slowing down, but it's still headed in the same direction."
Everyone agrees reform is needed. The debate is over how to do it. As the health secretary put it today, we may have more time, but we don't have a minute to waste.

Internet veterans are well-versed in the arts of what listicles are, they are almost everywhere with some humorous, some deadly, and even some shocking stories. However, while some listicles may be great to read. Others can be harmful to either you as a person or the device you are surfing on.
1. How listicles can destroy your computer
Now when we are talking about listicles, we are not referring to numbered articles, such as this one. We mean the articles, which contain information such as "49 Moms That Are Way Cooler Than You". There is no doubt you know about them, but what you may not know, is that often, such pages are packed with malicious software, that is just itching to hack into your computer and share all your passwords with the world, or even worse.

You can see more pics HERE. I love wearing headbands, especially to work. I'm a nurse & at work I have to wear my hair up. I have a lot of hair & I get a headache after it's up for a while (I work 13 hour shifts). For me headbands help with the pressure when I have a ponytail or bun. It holds some of the weight underneath the ponytail so all the weight isn't in one spot & pulling the front of my hair back. It also helps hide those annoying "baby hairs" on the top that frizz up in the rainy or humidity. Plus, it's a hot little accessory! I also do embroidery so if you would like a personalized headband, a certain design or certain color combos you can't find let me know. Visit my website http://www.jtstitches.com/. Have a great week!

August 2005
© 2005 by Bret S. Beall
If you've read my previous décor columns, you already know the winner of the battle alluded to in the title. So why am I revisiting the idea? For three reasons: 1) to remind readers of the purpose of décor by providing anecdotes in support of my Senses of Living® philosophy, and 2) to offer tangible examples of what you can easily do to follow the Senses of Living® décor concept, and 3) to introduce the concept of proportion of color in interior décor. Please, read on.
I clearly believe that décor should be the backdrop of our lives, not the focus. This is counter to what you will encounter in most decorating books, on most decorating shows, and from most décor consultants. This approach is about establishing your own identity, and using your décor to enhance that identity, rather than allowing décor to take on an identity of its own.
How do we accomplish enhancing individuality rather than dominating or overwhelming individuality? Essentially, the most important thing to do is to think intentionally about the use of a room. Is the room used for multiple purposes, or is it a single purpose room? Is it used for solo inhabitation, or for enhancing relationships? Is it part of the main pedestrian "track," or is it off in a low-traffic area?
In general, I like to use neutrals as the backdrop for any room. By "neutrals," I mean tans, beiges, taupes, whites, off-whites, creams, pale yellows, and that ilk. I know designers who would read this and say, "Oh my! He's AFRAID of color." On the contrary, I love color, and believe in using it to make a room comfortable, rather than making the room overwhelming; in other words, I believe in using color in proportion! I have dined in too many dining rooms painted deep red to purportedly "enhance hunger"; that doesn't work, as I find myself feeling closed in (so do others). I have cooked in too many clients' kitchens painted a bright yellow, orange or robin's egg blue, this time under the guise of "adding excitement"; instead, in a room where it is important to focus on food prep, all of the bright color can be distracting (at least to me, and I think to most people if they are honest with themselves). I've been in too many living rooms that were done in a single family of colors to create an "effect"; unfortunately, the effect was one of feeling like I might disrupt the designer's "effect," and thus I felt uncomfortable.
I've also been in a lot of places that use neutrals properly, and this creates so many opportunities. I have seen neutral rooms so calm and beautiful that I never wanted to leave. I've seen neutral rooms accessorized in a way to stimulate conversation and energize me. I've seen neutral rooms that are warm and welcoming, and THAT is the perhaps the most important goal: Make your guests feel good!
I was originally going to call this column "Au Naturel," to suggest decorating "in the natural way." However, based on what I am writing, that column would have been hypocritical. I see so many designers who use the term "natural" to imply "neutral," and in the process refer to "earth tones" and "inspirations from nature." Well, as an evolutionary biologist, I know that every single color and tone can be found in nature, so these designers are actually offering meaningless advice. Or is it?
Designers would be far more accurate if they used "inspired by nature" to refer to the relative proportions of neutral tones to brilliant color. Neutrals are far more common in nature than brighter hues, and this can truly be a great guideline for interior decorating. Yes, here's the take home message: Proportion of neutrals to color is the key!
Truly, proportion is the key to all aspects of décor, but right now I'm dealing only with color. However, if I'm proposing a neutral backdrop, where does the color come in? I actually hinted at the answer above: accessorizing! Of course, I don't mean going out and buying any ol' color-laden accessories. No, to produce a life-enhancing décor, it is crucial to accessorize with your own personal treasures and prizes. Everyone has some key belongings that s/he wants to display, and if one has a neutral background, these personal belongings will coordinate with the overall room. Be warned, though: there is one more element that must be considered.
A room will really "pop" if you have a theme. A theme will guide your selection of color, and therefore, accessories. A theme can be the function of the room, or it could be something related to time period or ethnicity or architectural/décor style. Let me give you some examples. I do a lot of decorating based on ethnicity; my bedroom is painted basically a pale yellow with white accents, but most of the accessories are pan-Asian art, artifacts, wall-hangings and carpets in shades of blue with red and gold highlights, creating both a relaxing ambience when it's time to go to bed, and an energizing one when it's time to get up … in other words, it enhances my life. In one décor consultation, I was asked what to do with a guest bedroom that had Prairie Style furniture; because it was a bedroom, I didn't want to get too carried away, but I did encourage the owners to paint one wall in "redwood" or "Cherokee red," a color popular with Frank Lloyd Wright, the founder of Prairie Style; the one wall would enhance the room without dominating it. In yet another consultation, the client wanted a room in which to invite clients for reiki and other health treatments; I encouraged him to clear out all extraneous items (they were storing exercise equipment in this therapy room, and there was a particularly startling poster on the wall), and to paint the walls a deep violet to create a dark, womb-like, nurturing environment that would remove distractions and encourage the full experience of the treatment. Using function or ethnicity to guide proportion is key to producing a balanced room.
You'll note in the examples above that there are two examples where I recommended using wall colors that aren't neutrals. Please also note that these two examples, a guest bedroom that was intermittently used, and a therapy room with a single function, are both examples of the single-use rooms I mentioned above as sites where I would consider violating my neutral backdrop rule. Specifically, if you aren't seeking multifunctionality, you can pick a particular color palette that best supports a single function. In addition to the two examples given, this could also be done in a bathroom (yes, there are multiple functions, but they are all tied together). It could be a home office; again, many operations are done in a home office, but they are related to one another, so use a color that you believe enhances those operations … and only you can determine that.
There's one more concept I need to discuss in the context of neutrality: Do your own thing, and when you do it, be sure it is truly YOUR own thing, and not someone else's. Just because you saw it on a TV show doesn't make it right. Just because you saw it on the cover of, or inside, a design or architectural magazine doesn't make it right. No, if you truly like it, DO IT. Don't let anyone tell you what you should do or be!
Décor should reflect you. It should reflect your life history. It should reflect your travels. It should reflect your ancestry. It should reflect your dreams, goals and desires. Décor should do all of these things … if you want them to! Seriously, I've provided you with some guidelines … just don't use all of the guidelines in one single room … please!
Proportion is an important concept in décor that I will be revisiting in future columns. Meanwhile, let me know if I can help you with these guidelines. The goal is to create a comfortable, life-enhancing environment using décor and design. I work by offering suggestions and creating multiple options. If you need some suggestions and options, you can contact me at 773.508.9208 or email me.

Monday's game update brought in 2018's Spring Fayre and introduced some big changes, including making all of the attractions free. With this big change we decided to tweak the XP rates accordingly for the unlimited availability.
Be making the following changes with a hotfix:
1. We're vastly improving the chance of a cosmetic drop2. The cosmetic drop rates were actually the same as they were last year. With the removal of the token system however, it's clear that cosmetics weren't appearing often enough to feel rewarding in this new event format.
We'll be increasing the following skill activities:
1. Cooking – 50%2. Mining – 100%3. Hunter – 100%4. Prayer – 50%5. Strength – 50%6. Agility – 50%7. Ranged – 50%
This is still lower than last year's XP rates, as last year required fayre attraction tokens to participate in. As a result the XP then was a little more generous
Quests, Challenges and Achievements
If you destroy certain objects during Pieces of Hate at a specific point in the quest you're now able to reclaim them.
Corrected some disjointed body parts on the Dominion Tower Barrelchest.
Prevented the player from equipping the Barrelchest disguise in Pieces of Hate on certain tiles so prevent falling through a wall.
Resolved an issue where you could not reclaim plunder from the chest within Cabin fever if you somehow had not deposited 5 pieces within Bill Teach's chest.
Hope we can soon enjoy the OSRS with improved connectivity. And please buy RS 2007 gold cheap with 5% off code: rs2hot on our site.
We hope you enjoy!

The most common aspiration of people who practice Yoga is to obtain both
physical and mental health

this tool
will let you know your BMR. This index calculates calories considering these values as your height, age, weight, gender and activity level. You can learn more about the BMR here
While Western medicine can be described as a science of disease and treatment,
Yoga is the science of health
. The continuous practice of Yoga prevents a lot of diseases, improves heart effectiveness, and help calm the nervous system. Yoga practice has also been known to regulate gastrointestinal functions, normalize endocrine function, develop eye-hand coordination, improve sleep, reduce weight, improve sexual life and many other benefits.
is possibly one of the very few techniques which
work all the internal organs and glands of the body
during certain Asanas in a thorough way including those that hardly get externally stimulated during our entire lifetime, Yoga has a profound effect on the circulation ensuring the optimum blood supply to various parts of the body removing toxins. Also, Yoga enhance proper alignment of postures, helps keep the muscles in the correct position for each Asana. However, the most beneficial health benefits provided by Yoga are the
balance and amalgamation of mind, body, and soul

Many people who start practising Yoga in their older years realize that they feel better that they did in their early years, it is probed that Yoga delay ageing.
When a person's mind, soul and body become restricted, the body slowly becomes unhealthy; as a result the body and mind have to work harder in order to compensate and this can lead to illness and uneasiness. Someone who practices Yoga regularly can
prevent a lot of health problems and diseases
, Yoga is used for reduce stress, treating insomnia, multiple sclerosis, anxiety disorders, high blood pleasure, depression and other diseases in the mind and body.
