The power to seek out product critiques earlier than on-line buying could be very helpful for internet buyers.

Nevertheless, there are several types of evaluations out there and a few product evaluations are extra helpful than others. This text will talk about product critiques which could be discovered instantly on the web retailers web site in addition to product critiques which could be discovered on web sites devoted to compiling product evaluations.

These evaluations sometimes fall into two classes and embrace shopper product critiques and product evaluations provided in phrases for compensation. Shoppers who're utilizing these evaluations to collect details about a product ought to proceed with warning to make sure they perceive what sort of critiques are being provided on the web site.
Shopper critiques are sometimes the most effective useful resource for shoppers who need to study extra a few product. This consists of critiques which come from others who've bought and used the product in query. These critiques are often utterly candid and supply nice perception into the shape and performance of the product. Internet buyers who discover nearly all of shoppers are glad with a specific product could also be reassured they've chosen a top quality product. Conversely internet buyers how persistently discover destructive evaluations of a specific product might want to think about buying a special merchandise.
On-line retailers additionally typically function critiques on their web site from reviewers who've been compensated to offer a assessment. When a retailer compensates a person to make a assessment it's often essential to disclose this info as a result of the evaluation might are likely to price the product extra favorably than they might in the event that they weren't compensated to take action.

Shoppers are suggested to think about these opinions rigorously particularly when there are numerous critiques out there which appear to be in settlement relating to the standard of the product. Nevertheless, when there are just a few evaluations obtainable it may be rather more troublesome for the buyer to formulate his personal opinion of the product based mostly on these evaluations posted on the web site. Shoppers are additionally suggested to disregard evaluations which differ considerably from nearly all of the opposite assessment posted. These evaluations could also be mistakenly referring to the improper product or might exhibit an anomaly. For instance if nearly all of evaluations are overwhelmingly constructive however one or two critiques are unfavorable it's usually acceptable to disregard the destructive critiques so long as the corporate promoting the product is respected and there are sufficient constructive evaluations obtainable to persuade the consumer the product is worth it.

What's your culture? Explore these 12 vital attributes
To understand the values and beliefs that pervade your organization, ask employees to weigh in on these key elements of their work experience. The results can be affirming or jarring.
An organization's culture consists of the values, beliefs, attitudes and behaviors that employees share and use daily.
An organization's culture reflects and affects how employees describe where they work, how they understand the business and how they see themselves as part of the organization. Culture is also a driver of decisions, actions and, ultimately, the overall performance of the organization.
How would employees describe the culture of your organization?
Some common positive assessments are:
- This is a fun place to work.
- We are results oriented.
- Everyone here cares about each other.
- This is a great place to learn and grow.
- Negative descriptions exist, too:
- You can't speak up without fear of retribution.
- I don't feel trusted to do my job.
- We work in silos.
- I don't see how my work contributes to the overall goals of the company.
Cultures develop organically or are created through deliberate, consistent planning and action. Leaders at the best organizations understand their culture and take careful steps to manage and promote it. One way they manage their culture is to gather feedback from employees to see how aligned they are with the current and/or desired culture.
A good way to do this is to define the desired cultural attributes and measure them through an employee survey.
Here are 12 attributes to evaluate your organization culture:
1. Respect/fairness
2. Trust/integrity
3. Change/adaptability
4. Results orientation
5. Teamwork
6. Employee engagement
7. Responsibility/accountability
8. Learning opportunities
9. Meaning/purpose
10. Communication
11. Decision making
12. Goals/strategy
Each includes three to five items that detail the attribute and provide insight into how the culture works. Once you have your survey results, decide which attributes you want to keep, and develop a strategy to eliminate those that are toxic. This is the first step to getting employees aligned with a culture that will drive success.
Have more attributes to add to the list? Please share in the comments.

The Scope of the Charge - S.14
Persons, including corporations, partnerships, trustees and bodies of persons carrying on any trade, profession or business in Hong Kong are chargeable to tax on all profits (excluding profits arising from the sale of capital assets) arising in or derived from Hong Kong from such trade, profession or business. There is therefore no distinction made between residents and non-residents. A resident may therefore derive profits from abroad without suffering tax; conversely, a non-resident may suffer tax on profits arising in Hong Kong. The question of whether a business is carried on in Hong Kong and whether profits are derived from Hong Kong is largely one of fact, however some guidance on the principles applied can be found in cases which have been considered by the Hong Kong Courts and the Privy Council. No tax is levied on profits arising abroad, even if they are remitted to Hong Kong.
If a person sells his flat or any property as part of a scheme of profit-making, it will be regarded as a business and he is required to pay tax on any profit he may make.
Profits Tax Return (B.I.R. 51 or B.I.R. 52 or B.I.R. 54)
If you carry on a trade, profession or business in the form of a corporation, partnership business or if a non-resident person is chargeable to profits tax in your name, you must complete all items in the following profits tax returns (if applicable) to report the profits tax liability:
Profits Tax Return - Corporations (B.I.R. 51)
Profits Tax Return - Persons Other Than Corporations (B.I.R. 52)
Profits Tax Return - In Respect Of Non-Resident Persons (B.I.R. 54)
Failure to Submit Tax Return
In all cases if you cannot lodge a tax return by the due date or the extended due date, estimated assessment will be issued and you may be required to pay more tax. You may also be subject to penalty proceedings which include payment of penalty, or even prosecuted.
Profits Tax Return
If you carry on a trade, profession or business in form of a corporation, partnership business or if a non-resident person is chargeable to profits tax in your name, you should complete the profits tax return and file it to the Inland Revenue Department (IRD) by the due date.
Who Should File
Newly Registered Business
Generally, a newly registered business will receive its first profits tax return some 18 months after the date of commencement of business or the date of incorporation.
Continuing Business
Annual Bulk Issue of ReturnsThe annual exercise to issue profits tax returns in bulk takes place on the first working day of April each year.
Business Not Required to Submit Return
AnnuallyIt is the practice of IRD not to call for the annual submission of profits tax returns in instances where the trade, profession or business carried on does not give rise to assessable profits or where the trade, profession or business has not commenced or has ceased and not recommenced. However, upon receipt of a profits tax return which may be issued from time to time in the course of reviewing your future tax potential, the requirement to lodge the return form must still be complied with.
When to File
Normal Filing Time
Generally, profits tax return should be filed within 1 month from the date of issue. The compliance date of submission is specified on page 1 of the profits tax return.
Block Extension Scheme for Lodgement of Tax Returns
If you make up your annual accounts for the trade, profession or business after 30 November and your tax representative has duly applied for an extension to file your profits tax return under the Block Extension Scheme, the due date is normally extended.
Our Tax Services
We offer an efficient service to ensure agreement of a company's profits/income tax liability as early as possible. This reduces compliance costs, interest, penalties, and also ensures a company can budget accurately for the payment of its tax liabilities. Furthermore, we also offer technical advice and support in the following areas:

Books are always in the background of my life, but in 2015, with the arrival of Leo, they were pushed a little farher into the background. In comparing my list of reads from 2015 to 2014, this year is a much shorter list. Although I'm always reading through 3 or 4 books at a time, this year I went through them slower. With the exhaustion a baby brings, I frequently fell asleep with the pages open.
Leo also influenced the type of books I read. Unsurprisingly, you'll find books about birth and parenting on my list this year, but I realized another theme within my choices in 2015 - books about nature, particularly by women. If you've been following this blog, that shouldn't surprise you. Of course, the books on our shelves say a lot about us.
So here is a reflection of me this past year, in books.
The Invention of Wings - Sue Monk Kidd
My favorite novel of the year, by one of my favorite authors. Sue Monk Kidd managed to discover an incredible true story about two sisters from Charleston - Sarah and Angelina Grimke - who became 2 of the first American abolitionists. She brilliantly brings to life Sarah's upbringing in an aristocratic Southern family and parallels it with the story of Handful, the slave girl given to Sarah on her 11th birthday. This is a treasure of a novel and those who I've recommended it to have come back to tell me how much they loved it, too.
Womanly Art of Breastfeeding - Diane Weisseinger and Diana West
This has been my breastfeeding bible since Leo came along. From La Leche League, a well-known organization and well-trusted source for breastfeeding women, it takes the anxiety out of your nursing relationship and allows you to simply trust yourself and the bond with your baby.
The Moral Imagination - John Paul Lederach
One of my favorite books I've read about peacebuilding by a professor in one of the best-known Peace Studies programs in the world. It avoids all the dryness of overly-academic books and, in fact, I found it speaking to me on a profound spiritual and personal growth level.
Pilgrim at Tinker Creek - Annie Dillard (as an audiobook)
Annie Dillard's writing was the perfect antidote to Kampala traffic. I listened to her words opening entire worlds within nature and it took me out of the city and into a spectacular universe - the simple creek near her home. Her descriptions of stalking muskrats, the lives of praying mantis, and the overlooked worlds of insects, flora, and fauna manage to take you to an unexpected philosophical place, but don't let that scare you. Beauty and wonder are interwoven into every paragraph and you'll find yourself viewing the world around you in a new and fantastic way.
The Art of Communicating - Thicht Naht Hahn
Communication is an essential part of our life and one that can often be the root of division or the beginning of reconciliation. The renowned Vietnamese peace activist inspires his readers how to build peace at the most interpersonal levels with simple, but meaningful insights.
Tao Te Ching - Lao Tzu
I read at least one passage from this treasure in bed each night for a month and often I would poke Eric to see if he was still awake, to share with him the profound lessons in such a simple book. The Tao, also known as "the Way," is grounded in simplicity and can guide your heart to embrace the wisdom of paradox, among so many other lessons.
The Engaged Spiritual Life - Donald Rothberg
How is a "big" (international, global, cross-cultural) peace connected to a "little" (personal) peace? This is a question I've asked myself often and this book gives practical ways to answer that. For practitioners of social justice work, it guides us in ensuring that we emulate the very peace we want to bring into the world and provides practices to nurture that peace within ourselves.
The River Why - David James Duncan
Given to me by a friend after publishing my book list from last year, this novel surprised me in its humor, depth, and beauty. I never imagined I would enjoy a book about fishing, but I quickly came to love the main character and enjoyed following his path through life, fishing on The River Why in Oregon, and discovering meaning, purpose, and love.
Other books I enjoyed this year:
Prodigal Summer - Barbara Kingsolver
A Girl of the Limberlost - Gene Stratton Porter
Leo the African - Amin Maalouf
The Mermaid Chair - Sue Monk Kidd
The Power of Now - Eckhart Tolle
The Conscious Heart - Gay Hendricks and Kathlyn Hendricks
The Gift of Being Yourself - David Benner
The Sacred Balance - David Suzuki and Amanda McConnell
Ina May's Guide to Childbirth - Ina May Gaskin
Attached at the Heart - Barbara Nicholson and Lysa Parker
The Tao of Motherhood - Vimala McClure
Goddesses in Every Woman - Jean Shinoda Bolen
Of Woman Born - Adrienne Riche
Yes Please - Amy Poehler
Freckles - Gene Stratton Porter

Perhaps one of the most overlooked, yet ultra-important ingredients for running a successful chiropractic practice is to surround yourself with the "right" people, especially the ones you work with everyday.
And please do not underestimate the value of not only interviewing and selecting who you feel is the best person for every available position in your chiropractic practice, but also to have the desire and know-how to work diligently in an attempt to shape them into your "A" Team.
It is simply not good enough to hire a "nice' person, who shows up every day, does his or her job fairly well, then goes home and starts all over again the next day. Rather, the idea is to hire right, terminate quickly if a mistake has been made, and spend an extraordinary amount of time in two areas -- Training and Accountability.
Training does not mean that a senior employee haphazardly trains a new employee and the owner is devoid of responsibilities. It means that the boss takes a large part in the training, training and training again philosophy which is the cornerstone of creating a fully engaged, knowledgeable and caring employee. One who is desirous of being part of a team who believes in the leadership and the purpose of chiropractic.
The "boss" trains the employee on the intangible aspects of the chiropractic practice, such as its purpose, mission and vision. Additionally expectation management should be utilized. This is to insure that all employees have the clarity as to what is expected from them and what you can, in turn expect back in the way of performance.
The owner/leader should also play a huge part in interactive training and should have regular rehearsals pertaining to office concepts and policies, as well as the phrases and sentences used by all members of the team.
What matters is that training is viewed as a never-ending process and I will even be bold enough to state that, in my opinion, it takes two full years to thoroughly train an employee and turn them into a true para-professional.
Second to training comes Accountability – an easy to understand word, but an area that is weak in almost every business I have studied. Being accountable comes from being sufficiently trained so you feel confident.
I know a CEO who is particularly adroit in holding his Administrative Team accountable. At the end of each week every one is required shoot him an email telling him what they have accomplished that week, how their department is doing, what needs to be accomplished and any ideas that can contribute to making things better.
He knows what is going on at all times and uses this information to report back to the entire team during Team Meetings. These emails are collected and used during periodic employee reviews.
So Training and Accountability are key ingredients that all leaders utilize to build their team, avoid the staleness of rogue repetition, and engage everyone in the process of constant and never-ending improvement. There should never be a time when the boss or anyone in the support team is not improving themselves.
Clean up these two areas and most assuredly your chiropractic practice will run more smoothly and efficiently. The only caveat, of course, is that the doctor or owner of the practice must exhibit the characteristics of leadership, be strong, decisive and organized so that the staff respects the leader and is willing to act accordingly.
Lastly, when you think all of the above is accomplished – take a deep breath and train again!

History is a funny thing. Not quite a century ago New York's Catholic Governor Al Smith lost the 1927 presidential election by a landslide, partly because of his religion and the canard, "He will bring the pope to America."
Since then we've have nine papal visits, including a couple of refueling stops — one by Pope Paul VI, seven by Pope John Paul II and one by Pope Benedict XVI. Now we are about to have our 10th, which will be Pope Francis.
Coming for the September World Meeting of Families, he will be the second reigning pontiff to visit Philadelphia, providing he gets through the security gauntlet.
In honor of this truly significant event, many of the city's civic institutions and museums are hosting special displays to honor this visit.
One of the most important of these is an exhibit by the National Constitution Center, "Religious Liberty and the Founding of America," which through assembled documents explores the development of the concept of Freedom of Religion as it developed in the 13 original colonies, beginning with "Religious Liberty in Colonial America," continuing with "Religious Liberty in the Constitution," and "The Legacy of Religious Liberty."
In honor of the visit by Pope Francis, "We decided to make religious liberty the theme for the entire fall," said Jeffrey Rosen, president and CEO of the National Constitution Center.
The exhibit runs from Aug. 21 through Jan. 3, 2016.
One of the paradoxes is that many of the early settlers, for example the Puritans in Massachusetts, came to America to be free to worship God according to the tenets of their own faith but banned or persecuted those with different beliefs.
"Nine of the original 13 colonies had established churches," Rosen said. "Many of them levied taxes to support the church, some only allowed members to hold public office. Some believers — Catholics, Baptists, Jews — faced discrimination. We have early charters that preached religious freedom but barred non-Protestants from holding office."
Generally speaking, the only two colonies that practiced freedom of religion up to the Revolutionary War without interruption were Pennsylvania and Rhode Island, although in Pennsylvania the Charter of Privileges of 1741 protected anyone who believed in a monotheistic religion but limited public office to those who believed in Jesus Christ. This exception may not have been enforced.
Colonial Virginia did have a test oath for office, which included a denial of Catholic doctrine, and among the signers of this was a young George Washington.
"That document is displayed next to George Mason's inspiring Virginia Declaration of Rights, which inspired both Jefferson's Declaration of Independence and Madison's Bill of Rights," Rosen said.
Mason's Declaration of Rights, dated June 12, 1776, states "That religion, or the duty which we owe to our CREATOR and the manner of discharging it, can be directed only by reason and conviction, not by force or violence; and therefore all men are equally entitled to the free exercise of religion, according to the dictates of conscience; and that it is the mutual duty of all to practice Christian forbearance, love and charity towards each other."
Another important document that was a precursor to the religion clause of the Bill of Rights was the New York Constitution, passed in 1777 and also part of the exhibit. It was the first example of a freedom of religion clause after the colonies declared independence, which is also part of the display, according to Rosen.
In this document it is stated, "this convention doth further, in the name and by the authority of the good people of this State, ordain, determine, and declare, that the free exercise and enjoyment of religious profession and worship, without discrimination or preference, shall forever hereafter be allowed, within this State, to all mankind: Provided, that the liberty of conscience, hereby granted, shall not be so construed as to excuse acts of licentiousness, or justify practices inconsistent with the peace or safety of this State."
Which of course, leads us to the greatest document of them all, which is also displayed. This is the Constitution of the United States, effective 1789, with its lofty amended Bill of Rights added in 1791, essentially authored by James Madison. Amendment I states, "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof …."
Technically, Rosen notes, this did not ban religious discrimination throughout the country. It only banned the federal government from passing discriminating laws, although the several states did follow suit in their own constitutions and eventually the 14th amendment gave the federal government greater enforcement powers to supersede state laws.
As noted, as a young man George Washington did sign a discriminatory test oath necessary for public office, but as president, his actions displayed absolute agreement with freedom of religion.
There are two letters from Washington in the display. One is a response to a congratulatory letter from the Catholic community in which he wrote, "All that conduct themselves worthily are entitled to equal protection by the Federal Government …."
In a letter to the Jewish community, he wrote, "The Government gives to bigotry no sanction," and with biblical allusion to Micah 4:4, "Everyone shall sit in safety under his own vine and fig tree. There shall be none to make him afraid."
Today, when people choose to cite the First Amendment to the Constitution, they often as not refer to Thomas Jefferson's interpretation as "a wall of separation between Church and State," meaning there should be no interaction whatsoever between the two.
It is questionable how many of Jefferson's contemporaries would accept that meaning. Both George Washington and his successor John Adams proclaimed a day of prayer in thanksgiving or reparation to God. Thomas Jefferson, the third president, refused to do so citing in an 1802 explanation to the Baptists in Danbury "the wall of separation" raised by the First Amendment.
But Jefferson was succeeded in the presidency by James Madison, the prime author of the Bill of Rights. In 1812 after a petition by both Houses of Congress, in a proclamation Madison wrote, "I do therefore recommend the third Thursday in August next as a convenient day to be set apart for the devout purposes of rendering the Sovereign of the Universe and the Benefactor of Mankind the public homage due to His holy attributes .…"
While good people may quibble over the exact meaning of phrases, beyond doubt the United States Constitution with its Bill of Rights including the religious freedom clause has been emulated by many countries around the world.
In a sense this fundamental freedom was officially recognized by the Roman Catholic Church through the Vatican II document Dignitatis Humanae promulgated by Pope Paul IV on Dec. 7, 1965: "2. This Vatican Council declares that the human person has a right to religious freedom. This freedom means that all men are to be immune from coercion on the part of individuals or of social groups and of any human power, in such wise that no one be forced to act in a manner contrary to his own beliefs, whether privately or publicly, whether alone or in association with others, within due limits."
It is appropriate that the National Constitution Center's religious liberty display coincides with the visit to Philadelphia by Pope Francis, although this is not the only reason for the exhibit. It also honors the October visit to Philadelphia of the Dalai Lama, the exiled spiritual leader of Tibet who will receive the annual Freedom Medal. It is a reminder that real religious freedom is not yet universally practiced.

There is no such thing as "religious liberty" You are obligation to submit to God and no other gods beside HIM.

It was very relaxing to listen to them sing, and after they'd performed we all had a chance to join in. Hannah led us in singing some rounds and it was great to hear everyone joining in.

One of the worst parts of holding an American passport, besides FATCA rules that impede financial privacy and freedom overseas in general, and the obligation to pay income taxes on worldwide income, is traveling among hostiles. I am not just talking about travel within Arab countries or places like Central America, Venezuela, Cuba, Russia and China where Americans are targets for kidnapping or being brutally killed. I am specifically talking about offshore tax havens like Singapore, Mauritius, Guernsey, Bermuda, Cook Islands and Andorra.
Earlier this year, the United States government literally flexed its muscled against the last country in this list and smashed Banca Privada d'Andorra by asserting that the bank had ties to money laundering. To avoid international exposure, local regulators took over the bank and has spent four or five months sorting out the "dirty" from "clean" accounts, the latter to be transferred by year end to a new bank called Vall Banc. In the meantime, all account holder assets have been frozen, excepting only small withdrawals under strict monthly limits.
I recently interviewed a Banca Privada d'Andorra bank official (in person) that told me how every offshore bank in Andorra and presumably the world is under high alert, worried that the same thing might happen to them. According to my source, so far no one has lost their money but the hassle, intrusion and loss of sovereignty for the tiny country of Andorra are significant.
Most of Andorra's economy is financial tourism, with skiing a distant second. The Andorran case showed that the United States government can literally bring a bank or country to its knees at will, regardless of local politics. If the bank does not play by American rules it will be punished. We saw the same thing happen in Chile when FATCA was rammed down the throat of the Chilean banking system this year, violating Chilean privacy laws and making Americans second class citizens in terms of financial and banking rights.
Andorran banks see the hypocrisy in all of this rhetoric and action. The official mentioned to me that America has its Delaware and Nevada corporate havens and yet has demonstrated that it simply will not leave fiscal paradises elsewhere in the world alone. Who made the USA the banking watchdog of the world anyway? Does might make right?
Now, American passport holders have to face more than just extra scrutiny in normally friendly places around the world. They will also have to work to avoid local and commercial scorn by going on record to distance themselves from the evil feudal policies of the United States government.
Americans looking to place assets overseas need not worry about problems with Banca Privada d'Andorra, however, since, according to this article, one of the sanctions sought by and granted to the United States is that this bank will not be allowed to open accounts for American companies. Moreover, those that already have accounts will be placed under heightened vigilance and scrutiny. How pleasant! Still want to hang on to that American passport? Still happy that "Big Brother" is there watching out for your "best" interests?
For years I have suggested that expats coming to Chile not use Chile as a place to leave the bulk of their cash and assets, other than for gold storage and for its fantastic tax-advantaged life insurance products. For most financial holdings, offshore jurisdictions should be sought out instead. Places like Andorra were particularly interesting because all bank representatives speak Spanish and Andorran banks will open accounts using legal and company documents set up in Chile. Now all of that has come into question. Maybe it will be best to bring more assets to Chile and store physical gold in safe deposit boxes rather than risk using an offshore bank that will possibly be the next victim of United States government foreign policy,
One other bit of food for thought. As I left the interview and drove back over to Spain (there are videos on You Tube showing the border stations), I found that its customs agents are standing with the USA by becoming particularly ruthless toward anyone that looks like they might have visited a bank in Andorra, doing car and personal strip searches, scouting for cash and trying to make trumped up cases that people with Andorran bank accounts are really money laundering. In fact, I can think of few other countries with more pernicious, mean-spirited and nasty border police than Spain has, close behind the United States in characteristic thuggery and power-trip mentality–so common in the "land of the free" ever since the Waco, Texas massacre in early 1993.
Bottom line: if you are an American citizen that thinks your assets are "safe" in an offshore jurisdiction, think again. Not only do you need a Plan B country, you need a Plan B offshore bank. Diversification is important. If Andorra is not safe, then neither are Singapore, Panama, Jersey or Mauritius.

Our bodies are ready...
One project we have been working on, is ourselves. While this is not a project to complete in one week, it's a project that we struggle to continue EACH week. We recently started working with a personal trainer, approximately four weeks ago. Jen is a fantastic trainer, truly motivational and positive. She comes to our house three times a week, for an hour each visit. We feel as though this is our best chance at success. Actually we should say, we feel that SHE is our best chance at success.
We are not skinny people, nor do we want to be skinny. You all know us. We have spent our life doing the yo-yo dieting. Up. Down. Only to repeat that cycle over and over. There comes a time when you just have to say enough is enough. We would like to get to that point, and maybe we're close. But we're not sure we're actually at that point of...enough is enough! We know we need to make changes, that's obvious. So we make changes as we go each week. More water, less soda. One meal for breakfast versus two. A sandwich minus the bread. It would be easy to say, just follow this eating plan. Putting that eating plan into action and successfully following it, after years of avoiding it, is more difficult. So we do what we can. Whatever we are doing, today, to improve our lives, is better than 4 weeks ago or even a day ago.
They say you always want what you don't have. So what are the things we want? We want to live long, healthy, and purposeful lives. Very similar, we are sure, to what many of our readers strive to achieve. Are we there yet or are we at least striving to be there? The answer to that question is easy - no, we are not there yet, however what we are doing is going day by day, to make sure we are STRIVING to be there…one day!

The 2001 Myakka Skunk Ape Photographs
In mid-February of 2001, a number of newspapers in Florida began publishing stories of an unnamed woman who had seen an unusual ape-like entity stealing apples off of her back porch, near the Myakka River in Sarasota County. Apparently exasperated by the intrusions of this unusually nosy animal, she finally sent a letter, including photographs of the creature, to the local sheriff's office.
According to a column written by Steve Otto of the Tampa Tribune, the letter, in part, read:
Enclosed please find some pictures I took. . . . My husband thinks it is an orangutan. Is someone missing an orangutan?
It is in a crouching position in the middle of standing up from where it was sitting. It froze as soon as the flash went off. . . . I heard the orangutan walk off into the brushes.
I judge it as being about six and a half to seven feet tall. As soon as I realized how close it was, I got back to the house.
It had an awful smell that lasted well after it had left my yard. The orangutan was making deep `woomp' noises.
For two nights prior, it had been taking apples that my daughter brought down from up north off our back porch. It only came back one more night after that and took some apples that my husband left out in order to get a better look at it.
We got a dog back there now, and, as far as I can tell, it hasn't been back.
I don't want any fuss or people with guns traipsing around behind our house. At the very least, this animal belongs in a place like Busch Gardens.
Why haven't people been told that an animal this size is loose? . . . Please look after this situation. I don't want my backyard to turn into someone else's circus.
Cryptozoologist Loren Coleman had the photographs analyzed, and the creature captured on film had some structural similarities to an orangutan; although Coleman doesn't necessarily believe that it is one.
"Concurrent with my thinking, Tony Scheuhamme, a biologist with the Canadian Wildlife Service, pointed out some features on a good photograph of an orangutan by Denise McQuillen," wrote Coleman in his blog. "This is not to say the Myakka photographs are of an orangutan, but it certainly assists in identifying features that are found on a known anthropoid that appear to exist on this one too."
Not every cryptozoologist agreed on the veracity of the pictured skunk ape, and researcher Bobbie Short used her website Bigfoot Encounters as a platform to express her disbelief.
"...more than three veteran sasquatch investigators in Florida have investigated and determined that the Myakka photograph was a masked individual in a baggy-leg costume and deemed a hoax. The imagination of creative cryptozoology writers ran away with themselves on this one, it's wishful thinking, wholly a misidentification, a hoax, call it what you like -- there is no mysterious Myakka creature in Florida, there are no fossil records of apes in Florida. Apes are quadrupeds while the bigfoot aka sasquatch or skunk ape is a biped, classifying it a homin not a pongid. Even if there were feral or escaped apes from primate facilities or circuses managing to live off the fruitless Everglades, they are not related to Florida's hominoid upright walking, hairy creature," wrote Short.
"In addition, a May 2006 letter from Mitsuko Choden, primate specialist in Japan revealed the Myakka ape is a costume familiar to them in assorted colors, with plastic teeth molded in the fashion of the great apes. She went on to say the subject in the Myakka photograph expressed no body, arm or leg definition that would lend itself to the great apes."
And yet there are many who believe that the creature in question could be the legendary skunk ape. Skunk ape sightings aren't even that unusual in the area, as it turns out. In an article from 2014, the Sarasota Herald-Tribune reported that there had been at least a dozen sightings of the cryptid around the Myakka River from the 1960s into the 1980s. Sightings in the area continue to this day, and so, too, persists the mystery of the Myakka skunk ape photos.

Leaf Miners/
I like the crazy patterns leaf miners make in the leaves. The traces are made by larvae, mostly of flies or moths, that live between the top and bottom surfaces of the leaf, eating their way around the interior in different ways until they eventually are ready to transform. By the plant species involved and the pattern left by the larvae you can mostly identify which the species. I've recorded mines on sugar snap peas, chard and aquilegia; also on weeds such as sow thistles, herb bennett & willowherb. Mostly they're fairly harmless, though I'm not so happy about the damage to my chard - not that I can do much about it, if I don't want to use insecticide.

What is Love?
That's a good question. Ask yourself, what does love mean to you? You might love your family, your pets, your friends, your stuff. But have you ever fallen in love with another person? To fall in love, is to fall face first into a deep unknown – open up your heart and offer it to another person, so that they can pick it up and drop it off, easily. But having love and falling in love are interpreted entirely differently.
Anthropologist Helen Fisher describes love as "a drive." By that default, love is just as essential as food, water and shelter. We do not stop looking for love until we are full, so to speak. Most of us find love in others before we find love in ourselves. Some of us find love in ourselves and then share it with other people. A lot of us believe love can transcend dimensions; we believe love is the answer for everything and we believe love overcomes hate.
Ask yourself, what do you really mean when you tell your family you love them, when you tell a partner you love them or when you say you love yourself?
For the most part, no one really "knows" what love really is, but we can ascribe qualities, associate feelings and say "I love you" to those most important to us. However, love is not earned, never guaranteed, nor are you entitled to it. While love is universal, it is not always reciprocated, nor valued. This is why it is especially important to know what you want, before you go looking for love – better yet, before it finds you.

Restaurant Review : Global Chaos, FortPosted in : Restaurant Review on by : Disha Khurana Tags: Mumbai, Mumbai local, Restaurant review
The Fort area in Mumbai has been special to most of us for various reasons, most may say its special because of the Kala Ghoda festival but for me its special as it was Fort where I traveled every single day for my 1st job. So, when I got an invite to try the new fine restaurant that had opened in the next building where my 1st office was, I simply had to check it out.
After a traffic jam drive I reached Global Chaos on a Saturday afternoon for some good food & drinks to catch up with an old friend. We girls started off with a glass of Rose Wine & White Wine Sangria & ordered in for a few appetizers requesting them to serve us small portions. In soups, we tried the Shellfish Bisque & the Tandoori Murgh Shorba & both were great specially the Tandoori Murgh Shorba, it is something I could have every single day without a doubt.
In appetizers, we tried the Kokami Jhinga in Coconut Shell, Pulled Chicken Sliders, Baked Brie & the Middle Eastern Kibbeh. The Pulled Chicken Sliders were perfect bite sized & the coloured buns were super soft, even the coleslaw was refreshing & not too creamy. The Middle Easter Midn Kibbeh which in simpler terms was like a minced mutton seekh kebab again was beautifully flavoured but I wished it was a little juicier than it was. Even the Kokami Jhinga was a let-down as it was too salty & over cooked resulting into some hard-chewy prawns. I absolutely loved the Baked Brie that came along with some garlic bread, it was goey, cheesy & brilliant.
After some good chit chat we moved on to the mains & a few more drinks to go along with the meal & settled for the South African Chicken Bunny Chow, Prawns on Champagne Mustard Sauce on a bed of Spicy Aglio Olio Spaghetti & Black Pepper Chicken. The Black Pepper Chicken came with a chicken breast stuffed with sautéed mushrooms with veggies & some butter tossed spatzel on the side with a beautiful black pepper sauce drizzled over it. This was my 1st time trying spatzel & I quite enjoyed the complete dish. The South African Chicken Bunny Chow had some great robust flavours coming through every bite, I did like it but not as much as I enjoyed the other two. Out of all the 3, the star dish was the Prawns on Champagne Mustard Sauce on a bed of Spicy Aglio Olio Spaghetti. The Aglio Olio Spagetti was perfectly cooked but king size prawns being moist & juicy & that champagne mustard sauce was lip-smacking good.
From the drinks, I tried the Orange Caprioska which I didn't like as the balance was totally off even after fixing it twice thus I finally settled for the Thai Grasshopper from the mocktails. Totally loved this one & definitely recommended. I got to try a sip of their Cosmopolitan & I was glad to realize they made their basic drinks quite well.
By now we both were stuffed, but you got to complete your meal with desserts specially when they have brilliant things on their menu. So, we tried the Hazelnut Crème Brulee & the Chocolate Lava Cake. The Hazelnut Crème Brulee tasted great but the texture seemed like it was overdone but I completely fell in love with the chocolate lava cake, oh so good! Highly Recommended.
Overall it's a great place with the classy ambience to go for a nice date or dine with your family. The things you must try are –
- Tandoori Murgh Shorba
- Pulled Chicken Sliders
- Baked Brie
- Prawns on Champagne Mustard Sauce on a bed of Spicy Aglio Olio Spaghetti
- Thai Grasshopper (mocktail)
- Chocolate Lava Cake

Know Your Options when You Have a Severely Damaged Vehicle
To be involved in a car accident is one thing that we people will encounter at some point in our lives and regardless if this is a small or a large, still, chances of having your car being damaged too much that it will not be advisable to bring it back on road will be possible. So in case that the damage of the vehicle is just too much for you to consider having it repaired, then the next scenario will most likely be that you will just want to sell it to a scrap car buyer and get whatever it is that you could from the wrecked vehicle.
In the event that you are planning on selling it after the incident, then you are on the right track since we will be discussing more about the various things that you could choose to incorporate just so you will be able to get back on the road in the soonest means possible.
In the event that you have finally decided to sell your car instead of getting it repaired, then you will surely benefit if you choose to sell it to scrap car buyers to salvage as much money out of it before deciding to buy a new one. Salvaging the vehicle will then help you pay less when getting a new vehicle since you could choose to add it up as a down payment to achieve a lesser monthly bill. The amount of money you will get from the scrap car buyer will significantly depend on a range of things and some of which include the severity of the damage, and the make and model of the vehicle, as well as the engine.
There also are other instances where people will just prefer to pay up the price just to get the car fixed instead of sending it right away to the scrap car buyer. As long as price of the repair is concerned, there will be a ton of things that needs to be checked and this will rely on the severity of the damage so in case the overall price to get it repaired is somewhere between being able to afford it and almost being able, then there is no hard going for it, as long as this is what benefits you at the end of the day. The decision on whether or not the vehicle will be repaired or sold depends on the owner's decision. In a sense, people could choose to have the vehicle repaired instead if the item has a sentimental value in it, otherwise, selling it will most likely be beneficial.
You could choose doing a part exchange since there are dealers you could find that have such program for people like you. Keep in mind that if you do choose to consider such, then chances are best that you should opt to proceed with caution for you to be well aware of the ins and outs that you need to know about.

A Royal Marine imprisoned for shooting an injured Taliban fighter has won his appeal against his conviction.
Five judges announced the decision at the Court Marshall Appeal Court in London, overturning the murder conviction of Sergeant Alexander Blackman, also known as 'Marine A'.
Sgt Blackman's legal team had submitted fresh psychiatric evidence, claiming it proved he acted with diminished responsibility. Three distinguished psychiatrists said he was suffering a mental illness at the time of the killing, and should therefore have his murder conviction quashed and substituted for a verdict of manslaughter.
Speaking for the Crown, however, Richard Whittam QC said that although there was no evidence to the contrary of Sgt Blackman having a mental illness, the issue "did not cause what happened".
The judges ruled in Sgt Blackman's favour, however.
Speaking before Wednesday's verdict, Sgt Blackman's wife Claire told The Telegraph she and her husband were "cautiously optimistic".
"This time it's very hard for him. Particularly a lot of lads are saying 'You are going home, you are going home', and he's saying 'Hang on, it's not a foregone conclusion'."
She added: "He hasn't wanted to jinx anything. I guess he's thought about what he might take with him, but he's not gone so far as to pack a bag."
After the verdict, she said now hopes for a "significant reduction" in her husband's sentence.

NEW YORK: Edelman has hired Marie-Claire Barker as global chief talent officer.
Barker's first day will be July 23 at Edelman's New York offices and she will report to global COO Matthew Harrington.
Barker replaces former global chief human resources officer Nigel Miller, who will now focus on employee engagement for clients, explained Edelman global marketing director John Blodgett.
Blodgett described Barker's position as a "newly envisioned role" at Edelman, and in addition to handling traditional HR executive duties, the agency will be tapping into Barker's deep experience in tech, media, and creative talent recruiting.
Per her LinkedIn profile, Barker was most recently global chief talent officer at Wavemaker, a WPP media, content, and technology agency. Prior to that she worked at Ogilvy, first as VP of worldwide HR for OgilvyOne, and then as chief talent officer for Ogilvy & Mather Worldwide. Before joining the agency world, Barker was HR director at Virgin Media Business.
In a statement announcing her hire, Harrington said Barker's recruiting experience fits well with where Edelman is headed.
"Edelman continues its evolution to be an integrated communications marketing firm with subject-matter expertise in new areas like data analytics, paid media, C-suite advisory, and digital transformation," he said. "[Barker's] expertise in developing talent will guide not only how we evolve our recruitment strategies to attract the right individuals in these areas, but also will be key to ensuring we maintain a culture of entrepreneurial spirit and creativity."
Currently, there are more than 150 HR employees at Edelman. However, Blodgett said that number could change as Barker works with Edelman management and clients to accommodate the expanding mission of the agency.

Mimecast offers a number of ways to manage users and groups. The steps below describe how to best leverage the available features.
Step 1: Adding Your Internal Email Domains
Before users can be created you will need to add your organizations internal email domains to Mimecast. When your account was originally provisioned at least 1 internal domain would have already been added.
Please see the Email Domains guide to learn about adding and managing Mimecast Internal Domains.
Step 2: Setting Up your Directory Synchronization
Once all of your internal email domains have been added you can sync users and groups from Active Directory to Mimecast. This allows you to automate user and group management, and optionally add user attributes to Mimecast users that can be used to apply policies, or in Stationery layouts.
There are 2 options available for Active Directory sync:
LDAP Active Directory Synchronization
Using an inbound LDAP(S) connection, Active Directory users and groups are automatically synchronized to Mimecast.
This requires a firewall change to allow connectivity from Mimecast to your Domain Controllers.
Active Directory Synchronization using the Mimecast Synchronization Engine
Using the Mimecast Synchronization Engine and a secure outbound connection from your internal network, Active Directory users and groups are securely and automatically synchronized to Mimecast.
Step 3: Setting Up Additional Sign In Options for Mimecast Applications
All Mimecast applications allow users to sign in using a Mimecast Cloud password. To allow users to sign in to Mimecast applications using their Active Directory password there are a number of options available. See below for details:
|Mimecast Application
|Administration Console
|Mimecast Personal Portal
|Secure Messaging Portal (internal users)
|Mimecast for Outlook
|Mimecast for Mac
|Mimecast Mobile
Domain (Same Sign-On)
- A user provides their primary email address and password to the application.
- The Administration Console, Mimecast Personal Portal, and the Secure Messaging Portal require the user to enter these details each time the user accesses the application.
- Mimecast for Outlook, Mimecast for Mac, and Mimecast Mobile only require the user to enter these details the first time they use the application and then again each time the user' s password changes.
- Behind the scenes Mimecast contacts Active Directory to verify the user.
Active Directory can be contacted using 3 different methods to verify a user's credentials:
|Directory Connector
|If you are using LDAP Directory Sync the same connection is re-used to verify users credentials over LDAP.
|Learn More
|Using a secure HTTPS connection a users credentials are verified using the ADFS WStrust endpoint.
|Learn More
|Exchange Web Services (EWS)
|Using a secure HTTPS connection a users credentials are verified using Basic Authentication against the Exchange EWS endpoint.
|Learn More
Integrated Windows Authentication (IWA) for Mimecast for Outlook
- Using this method users are never prompted to enter their credentials
- Mimecast for Outlook automatically detects the user's primary email address and uses Integrated Windows Authentication to authenticate the user.

Up to 100 million NFC phones will ship this year, says NXP
NXP Semiconductors, the company that helped Google integrate NFC into Anroid 2.3, is predicting that between 40 million and 100 million NFC-enabled mobile phones will ship this year, according to IntoMobile.
"Every time we talk to our friends at Google, they tell us to double the numbers for the Android expectations," NXP CEO Rick Clemmer told IntoMobile. "If the low end happens, maybe it doesn't get to be greater than 40 or 45 million units this year. If, in fact, Google's right and we should double everything, then the numbers are closer to a hundred."
Clemmer added that after a low-key first half of 2011, NFC is set to "ramp rapidly" once the first NFC-embedded devices start shipping later in the year.

Cars 3/
Definitely the best of the three films!
Even though the overall story was somewhat depressing, the writing team made a lot of smart decisions that kept the film moving and gave it a more light-hearted feel.
The ending was a real treat and one I hope y'all will really enjoy. I don't know if there will be any more films in this franchise but if this is it, I'd say they did a great job wrapping up the story. The little ones in the audience at my theater would certainly agree with me!

USA Gymnastics has filed a voluntary petition for protection under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. USAG posted the news in a press release along with a post outlining frequently asked questions.
In a press briefing following the announcement, Kathryn Carson, chairman of the USAG board, said, "We are not liquidating and we are not looking to close our doors. We absolutely will continue as a not for profit organization serving the sport."
USAG stressed that they are filing for bankruptcy to expedite resolution of Larry Nassar survivors' claims. They also stated that besides the 100 lawsuits from over 350 survivors, the organization is financially sound.
"We owe it to the survivors to resolve, fully and finally, claims based on the horrific acts of the past and, through this process, seek to expedite resolution and help them move forward,"
USAG also stated in the press briefing that the filing will stop the proceeding of the USOC's decertification procedure from moving forward. In order for the USOC to proceed, they would need to go to bankruptcy court to get permission.
The search for a new USAG CEO is still underway.
USA Gymnastics press release below:
INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. 5, 2018 -- USA Gymnastics today filed a voluntary petition for protection under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Indiana. This filing will enable USA Gymnastics to continue to support its athletes, to fully operate and meet its responsibilities to the entire membership and to expeditiously resolve the claims made by the survivors of sexual abuse perpetrated by Larry Nassar.
"We owe it to the survivors to resolve, fully and finally, claims based on the horrific acts of the past and, through this process, seek to expedite resolution and help them move forward," said Kathryn Carson, who was recently elected chair of the USA Gymnastics Board of Directors. "Our sport is safer and stronger thanks to the bravery of these women. The Chapter 11 filing and the expedited resolution of these claims are critical first steps in rebuilding the community's trust.
"At the same time, the filing will allow us to continue the important work of supporting our outstanding gymnasts at all levels, including the current and next generation of Olympic hopefuls," continued Carson. "Since joining the Board last June, I have been inspired by the commitment of our members -- the administrators, judges, coaches and club owners -- who work daily to foster a safe, positive and encouraging environment where thousands of young people can learn gymnastics and life skills, compete and pursue their dreams.
"We are moving forward with our plans to strengthen our organization to further support the work of our members and gymnasts," said Carson. "We have made significant progress in implementing safety initiatives and are in the process of searching for a new CEO who has the experience to build a leadership team that will restore confidence in USA Gymnastics, and set and execute a clear vision for a successful future."
The survivors' claims against USA Gymnastics are covered by insurance previously purchased by USA Gymnastics, and the amount of available insurance proceeds available is not affected by the Chapter 11 filing. Apart from these insurance proceeds, USA Gymnastics has no other significant assets that could be used to pay claims. USA Gymnastics believes that the Bankruptcy Court is the best forum in which to implement appropriate procedures to equitably determine and allocate the insurance proceeds among claimants, allowing compensation to survivors to proceed more quickly than litigation filed in multiple courts around the country.
By staying all pending actions against USA Gymnastics, the Chapter 11 filing also allows USA Gymnastics to work with the United States Olympic Committee to determine the best path forward for the sport of gymnastics. "We look forward to future conversations with the USOC to demonstrate our commitment at all levels to strengthening the organization and making gymnastics the best it can be for athletes at all levels," said Carson. "USA Gymnastics will continue with its day-to-day operations of directing and managing the sport's business and implementing initiatives that put the safety and well-being of the athletes at the forefront."
"All of us have the same goal of making meaningful changes for the benefit of our athletes and all members," said Carson. "While considerable change has been made, substantial work still remains. We will continue to prioritize athletes' safety and well-being and acting in the best interests of the greater gymnastics community.
Carson is one of eight independent and seven membership directors who were elected to a newly created Board of Directors in June 2018. The membership directors include representation for the competitive gymnastics disciplines, athletes and affiliated organizations.

Here is our selection of electric grinders. New for us is the sweet little Bodum Bistro, bottom left, at $110. We decided to carry these with metal, not plastic, bodies, in copper or silver color. Plastic housing models are cheaper but look cheap! The Bodum comes with a 2-year guarantee. We still have a few of the Cuisinart grinders, at $65. These are fine for everything but espresso grind. Then there is our great home standby, the Baratza Encore. I recently visited the coffee lab at U California, Davis, where these things are used by several classes a day (1500 students a year!); they don't break down.
And we now have a very cool (hot) new device, also from Bodum. It's called the ePebo vacuum pot; it does that magic of creating a vacuum in the top vessel, then drawing water up from the bottom, which then falls back down through ground coffee to make a really smooth drink. The beauty of the ePebo is that it has its own electric base–no external source of heat needed. So you can take it right to a table and make coffee in front of your guests–impress them no end! Or you can relax with the thing in your kitchen for yourself alone. $180, and we'll throw in a bag of coffee.
Brew as if you life depended on it. Maybe–see my posts on coffee and health–it does.

REMINDER: The #1 thing you can do to support the site is share the articles!
Karma is a pretty straightforward concept (that and an awesome concept for a TV show that ended way too soon). To put it in terms so insultingly simple they'll probably get a Tibetan monk to break his vows of silence and call us "jerkholes," Karma boils down to: do bad things and bad things will happen to you.
Of course, as we all know, that's not how life works. Bad people get away with doing bad stuff all the time. But there are times when they don't, and those are the times that really make you believe in Karma Clause, handing out justice to the real jerkholes out there with his feet and fists, like when:
A Pint-Sized Jewish Strongman Beat Up A Bunch Of Nazis
As hard as it is to believe, if you were an American wanting to hurt some Nazis in 1939, there really weren't that many options available to you. Sure, back then, Hitler had already started WWII by invading Poland, but America didn't join the war until 1941 because up until then, all the horrible stuff was happening to Europeans, and therefore didn't count. However, there was one outlet for all Yankee Doodles suffering from Punchnazi withdrawal: the American Nazi Party, which, yes, was a thing that existed.
At one point, they hung a "No Jews Allowed" sign on their New York headquarters, which turned out to be unfortunate for them when Yoselle Greenstein, a Polish-Jew, happened to walk past it. Needless to say, he wasn't a fan of the sign, so he took it down and tore it up. That's when the American Nazis came out with the offer of acquainting the man with the local hospital ward. Instead, they learned a valuable lesson about the importance of staying up to date on the carnival trades.
When the American Nazis descended on the man, he calmly proceeded to beat them all to a bloody pulp. Little surprise, considering that at the time, he'd been one of the most accomplished strongmen in America.
"WAKE UP! (wake up) GRABYOURBRUSHANDPUTALITTLEMAKEUP!"
Back then, Greenstein was known as the Mighty Atom, a famous circus performer who could chew chains, crap out nails, drive them through metal sheets with his bare hands, and even BITE THROUGH THEM. Hopefully he cleaned them up first. That is double impressive for a man who measured 5' 4" and barely weighed 140 pounds. Basically, he was the original Ant Man: a walking bullet made from bones and flesh. Bones and flesh that he drove into the noses and ribs of the attacking Nazis, sending a lot of them to the hospital.
At Greenstein's trial (he still committed property damage), most of the recipients of his fists of fury were too hurt to appear in court. Thankfully, when the judge heard they'd been Nazis, he dismissed the whole case, because no matter the time and place, it should never be illegal to punch Nazis in their stupid, rat faces.
A Pensioner In His 70s Destroyed An Armed Burglar's Face
When Gregory McCalium broke into the house of an elderly pensioner in Oxford, he had two things on him: a knife and a fairly high BAC. At 8 AM in the morning. That last part shouldn't be all that surprising, because if you're the type of guy who robs old people at knife-point, your life has probably gone off the rails in many other ways. In any case, while McCalium might have entered the residence of one Frank Corti with booze breath and reddish eyes, he left with a black eye and a swollen, purple lip.
McCalium's first mistake was trying to burgle a pensioner's house in the morning, when Frank Corti, 72 at the time, was probably awake for more than 3 hours. His second mistake was choosing the house of an ex Royal Engineer and a retired boxer to boot. And all that army and pugilism training came rushing back to Corti as soon as he saw the knife in the burglar's hand.
By his own account, the pensioner instinctively dodged the blade and then delivered two punches to McCalium's face, hitting his eye and mouth. That's all it took for him to go down like a sack of booze-soaked potatoes. Him being drunk probably made it easier for Corti to knock the punk out, but there was definitely a lot of power behind his punches, seeing as on his arrest photo, McCalium kinda looks like he had just started applying Thanos make-up while gargling tar.
A Father And Son Duo Protected Their Home From 30 Thugs, Using Kung Fu
Life in rural China isn't easy. There, the communist government technically owns all the land, and if they tell you that your house has been chosen as a site for, say, a monument of the local politician tea-bagging your mom, all you get to say in the matter is: "How much time do I have to pack?" Except if you're Shen Jianzhong. When basically the same thing happened to him, all he said was "Bite me." With his fists.
Shen and his family used to live in Bazhou, near Beijing, when a local Communist Party official announced that he would build an apartment complex on his land, and that Shen would maybe get a new house somewhere else. "We'll see" was the general tone of those promises. Naturally, Shen refused to move so the official organized a gang of 30 thugs to go to his house and punch-change his mind. Shen's wife answered the door, so she was the one to get attacked first. But then, from the thugs' perspective, a blur came from out of nowhere, and several of them were suddenly staring at the ground with blood gushing from their faces.
Here's a video of the aftermath, and before you dive into the moronic comments made by people who didn't read the actual story (linked in the first paragraph -- here's another), keep in mind that this incident eventually forced him to flee his home.
When Shen's wife was attacked, he and his 18 year old son rushed to fight the thugs with honest to god Bruce Lee kung fu. Shen has reportedly been practicing Jeet Kune Do for more than 20 years and is in fantastic shape, what with holding the world record for most roller push-ups in a minute. Together with his son, also a martial arts fan, they descended on the mob and knocked seven of them to the ground, handing out naps like candy on Halloween. Appropriate because near the end, the guys who got the worst of it looked a little bit like zombies.
Now, Shen did not fight all 30 of the thugs, but his martial art prowess was enough to scare off the rest of the attackers, because people who agree to threaten innocent families with violence are rarely the brave, self-sacrificing kind.
Two MMA Fighters In Drag Took Out A Group Of Drunk Jerkholes
In 2009, two rampaging asswipes from Wales were bothering people on a busy street when they spotted two men in drag attending their friend's bachelor party. That's when something inside them snapped. They saw two men wearing wigs and dresses, and their sobriety-impaired brains quickly did the drunk-jerkhole math of: skirt + penis = waaagh!
To call what happened next a "fight" would be really stretching the definition of the word. It was more of a crash course in minding your own business delivered by, as the police later determined, two professional cage fighters.
The first guy in drag quickly delivered some well-placed punches to the yobs bothering him, instantly knocking them to the ground. While they were down, his friend joined in with a few perfectly-executed hits of his own, as if to remind the two human punching bags that, going forward, not getting up was probably their best course of action.
Only stopping to pick up the clutch they dropped during the encounter, the two MMA fighters then set off on their merry way. And they all lived happily ever after. Except for the "attackers," who were left wheezing, coughing, and nearly puking out their pummeled intestines.
Andrew Jackson Beat His Would-Be Assassin Nearly To Death
Richard Lawrence was the first person to ever try to assassinate a U.S. president, and he failed so hard that on Wikipedia his name is now and forever followed by "failed assassin." But when you get down to it, we should really be calling him an "unlucky assassin," given how his attempt on Andrew Jackson's life went down.
Now, it's fair to say that Jackson did some things in his life that made a lot of people want to kill him. Lawrence wasn't one of them. Although we can't be sure what was definitely wrong with him, he 100% suffered from some mental ailment and believed that America owned him money. And that, apparently, if he shot Jackson, $20 bills would just magically geyser forth from his body instead of blood. Truly, his plan was foolproof. Too bad for him that it also wasn't water-proof.
On the day of the attack, Lawrence waited for Jackson to leave the funeral of a congressman when he emerged from behind a column and fired at the president. The gun misfired. Being more prepared than a Scout on Adderall, Lawrence then produced a SECOND pistol. It also misfired. A later investigation discovered that the rainy weather had gotten moisture into the guns, causing them to malfunction at just the right time. Or wrong time, from Lawrence's perspective.
"Sorry, Mr. Jackson. I am for real."
By then, bystanders and security started to restrain the assassin when Jackson decided that he also wanted a piece of that action. So, he started beating on Lawrence with his cane, which we can only assume he affectionately nicknamed "Ol' Beaty." (Sorry, no video this time.) By some accounts, things escalated so much that people eventually had to pull the 67 year old Jackson off Lawrence before the president beat the man to death. Damn, maybe we should have put his face on baseball bats instead of money.

Written by Michael Sutherland, Web Services Librarian
The library will be open limited hours this coming Saturday and Sunday from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. and will be closed in observance of the Martin Luther King, Jr. Holiday on Monday, January 19th.
Martin Luther King, Jr. Day is a federal holiday marking the birthday of Martin Luther King, Jr., a Baptist minister and civil rights leader dedicated to the principles of nonviolence. The campaign for a federal holiday in King's honor began soon after his assassination in 1968. President Ronald Reagan signed the holiday into law in 1983, and it was first observed three years later. It is now officially observed on the third Monday of January each year, which is around the time of King's birthdate, January 15th and serves multiple purposes: It celebrates the total legacy of Dr. King; focuses on the issue of civil rights; highlights the use of nonviolence to promote change; and calls people into service.
Dr. King is arguably one of the most quotable speakers of the the 20th century. Many people know or are aware of the "I have a Dream" speech given on June 11, 1963 during the "March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom". When Dr. King was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1964, at the time the youngest recipient to ever win at the age of 35, his acceptance speech in Norway included the famous statement "I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality. That is why right, temporarily defeated, is stronger than evil triumphant."
The Calvin T. Ryan Library has several resources for those interested in studying Dr. King – online biographies covering the life and works of Dr. King include:
- Biography Reference Bank – provides online biographies and lists of additional works by or about Dr. King.
- American National Biography Online
- Credo Reference
