How to Start Your Very own Development Organization
Personnel ought to be skilled to recognize and appraise drop dangers and be completely knowledgeable of how to regulate publicity to such dangers as properly as know how to use tumble security equipment effectively.
Development consists of massive quantity of manpower and enormous investments of dollars. The employees at a development internet site threat their lives operating at fantastic heights, with dangerous resources, harmful elements, significant tools, less than tunnels, etcetera. Hence, construction is related with high sum of possibility for income and lives. A slight negligence or bad fortune on element of the worker or owner could confirm too pricey. It may guide to a massive fiscal decline. These unfortunate gatherings need applications, which can bail the company out of the circumstance. Here arises the need of 'Construction Insurance', the threat management software, customised particularly for the development market. Development insurance policies is like any other insurance, which is utilized to defend the different functions associated with construction approach.
A thorough building insurance policies plan handles all the bills that might take place owing to house injury or personal injuries at the building web-site. This insurance not only includes the firm proprietor, but also staff, staff, tenants, sub-contractors, sole proprietors and small business partners.
Importance of development insurance coverage
As talked about higher than, building requires use of weighty gear, components, labour, etc. and is more inclined to incidents. Since the enterprise stands liable for any incident on the development web-site, it is the company operator or the contractor that ought to pay out for the health-related treatment method expenses of the wounded or payment to the people, in circumstance of dying of the worker.

Recommend botulism... Only a small amount is needed to kill someone, it takes 24 hours to test for in hospital, and it's impossible to be targeted for murder. It's also reasonably quick at killing someone. Not that I'm psycho; my newspaper had a story about NZ Milk having a Botulism scare for baby products. Turned out to be all BS precautionary steps, thankfully.

I was wondering the same- this FML needs a follow up!

I recommend watching a few episodes of Dexter. Then, the guy will think he's in control with his perfect set of tools. When he goes to commit the crime BAM who's in control now bitches? Dexter of course (in this case the OP).

@36. Sorry you got downvoted. I was thinking exactly the same thing.
cakefete2 | 30
If only it were that simple. Not to bash the police, because generally they do their best, but they wouldn't be able to do anything. Unless there is irrefutable proof that the guy was going to act on it or was in the commission of the crime, their hands would be tied. They can enforce a law one broken, prevention usually involves civil rights being trampled.
GinaWater95 | 8
The men in blue will not save the day. They just clean up the mess.
dannnngthatsux | 19
Civil rights being trampled aren't very high on the list anymore. Just be sure that you in no way are a threat to their well being. The courts over and over (SCOTUS especially) have been saying even if there was no threat, a perceived threat, I.e. 'can't see your hands', is enough for justifiable homicide. Better not to chance it.

I don't think a reaction would be worth being an accessory to a murder.

I would have called the police. You can never take things like that too lightly.
Right. If it really seemed like he wasn't joking, then I definitely would have gotten his name from his credit card receipt and called the police. At worst, he really was just joking, but at best you're saving someone's life.

most people that intend to buy murder equipment pay cash.
Zebediabolical | 36
Yes. Yes we do. And we buy our equipment months in advance. Nothing screams GUILTY like showing up on CCTV at home depot buying chicken wire, cement and cinder blocks just before a significant other dissapears.
RedPillSucks | 30
Dexter? Is that you?
If this guy is dumb enough to ask a sales clerk for advice on his "hypothetical" murder, I'm guessing he's also dumb enough to pay by card.
salic77 | 11
You're the reason the police can't defend the people who really need help because they come to your "aid" when there wasn't any threat and now you've just successfully wasted the pd'a time, money, and endangered someone's life. You also just caused a bit of grief for a person who was merely awkward at conversation. You need to commit yourself to a hospital before you fuck anything up for anyone.
Dillyduzit | 23
You need to calm down, friend.
#106, are you aware that you can make non-emergency reports? As in, you can call or go to your local police station and file a report (which costs no money and endangers 0 lives, and consumes only minimal time from someone whose job is to receive reports anyway). I'm not saying the cashier should have called 911 on the spot. This was obvious to anyone with half a brain.

I would've started looking for hidden cameras. This almost sounds like a "What Would You Do?" scenario.

Be an expert salesman! Start quoting movie plots involving use of tools. Be completely joking with it, and give him gory details. I had customers in the past like that, and they end up making decent sales! One time a customer asked "Give me a freezer that can hold lots of meat!" So I showed him around... There was a trailer for a horror showing on display screens. We discussed that we could "cut up and fit approximately 5 children in this model" etc. Joking that way make me an awesome commission!
graceinsheepwear | 33
5 dead children freezer capacity? Gruesome. You're lucky that joke didn't go over badly. I'd be afraid to throw that out to a stranger, even jokingly.
Simplyeatapples | 15
What if the guy actually took it seriously and stored children he kidnapped off the streets. That could be the reason you made the sell...

Ben Mbala chose to continue and play for La Salle when the Green Archers secure their crown in the forthcoming Araw ng Dabaw Invitational basketball tournament instead of trying out for the Cameroon National Team.
SBP (Samahang Basketball ng Pilipinas) board of trustee's member, Glenn Escandor, on Tuesday disclosed that the forceful 6-7 Cameroonian will come back to play for defending champion The Royal Mandaya Hotel-City Mayor's Office DLSU Green Archers.
Ben Mbala who was a main factor in La Salle's title win at the just concluded UAAP wars, was recently reported to have received a call up for Cameroon national team duty. However, the godfather of La Salle basketball team, Danding Cojuangco was able to persuade Mbala to remain with DLSU.
The Araw ng Dabaw Invitational Basketball tournament is endorsed by the SBP.

'Significant', 'subversive' and 'a little gem' were among the words used to describe a new book on reconciliation by two clergymen – one a Church of Ireland Rector, the other a Roman Catholic priest – which has been launched in Derry-Londonderry.
'Forgiveness Remembers' was co-written by Fr Paul Farren and Archdeacon Robert Miller whose parishes adjoin one another on the edge of the Bogside. It was launched by the Republic's Minister for Foreign Affairs, Simon Coveney, and the author and peace-builder, Tony Macaulay, at an event in St Mary's College. The Britannia Concert Band, of which Archdeacon Miller is a member, helped provide entertainment at the event.
The book was born out of the friendship between its authors and explores the road which, they say, "has the potential to lead us out of the darkness of hate into the light of peace". Its chapters draw from the personal experiences of the authors and their communities, and focus on hate, pity, compassion, forgiveness, grace, peace and hope.
Archdeacon Miller says encounter and relationship are at the book's heart. "It isn't long but it has a depth that we hope will refresh those who are weary of carrying the burden of 'unforgiveness'. Forgiveness cannot be hurried, so be gentle with yourself on the journey."
Fr Farren says: "In the reality that we live in today, the often painful journey of forgiveness is the only key to a future of freedom and peace."
Minister Coveney revealed at the book launch that he had read the book on the road from Stormont, where a session of inter-party talks had earlier broken up acrimoniously and without agreement. "You mightn't realise it," he said, "but what you have achieved here [in Derry-Londonderry] in the last 20 years or so is an inspiration to so many other countries who are struggling to find a way of helping communities to live with each other.
"Of course, the divisions in NI run deep," Mr Coveney said, "and the political parties are trying to create an environment that can create grey areas between those divisions, and then expand those grey areas so that they become encounters – positive ones – that are challenging, that are difficult, but that create outcomes for a new generation that can write a very different story for Northern Ireland."
The Minister hoped the book would be a source of encouragement to people. "I think that [in terms of] the kind of aspiration and hope and determination that we need to have together for this city, this country, this island – both countries on this island – this book is a little gem in terms of helping people to think a little bit deeper about why they're not able to come up to the challenges that they're trying to face, and maybe help them to redouble their efforts and start again, to move through the journey that they need to do to find a much better place and to find their own peace of mind."
Author and peace-builder Tony Macaulay told the audience of 150 people that 'Forgiveness Remembers' contained profound messages and offered important and inspiring words about the path to peace. Why, he wondered – in the midst of all the political talks, and the latest crises and deadlines here – was there so little talk of forgiveness? It was a concept that went to the very heart of the pain of a society emerging from conflict, he said. "Is it too hard, is it too religious, is it too ambitious, or too complex, or too personal to talk about forgiveness. Perhaps if forgiveness moved towards the centre stage in our peace process we might be able to take a leap forward to become a truly peaceful and integrated society."
Mr Macaulay said the churchmen's cross-denominational collaboration was, in itself, a model and an inspiration for reconciliation in this divided society.
The Bishop of Derry, Dr Donal McKeown, told the audience that the story we told about the past influenced, to a huge extent, the condition and possibilities of the future. "This subversive book is radical and liberating because it enables us to tell a different story of the past, to say we're not its prisoners, that we can be architects of our future."
Bishop Ken Good said there were many treasures in the book but that its main treasures were its two authors. "The two of you, as leaders of the church, are modelling something that is worthwhile." Bishop Good said 'Forgiveness Remembers' was an accessible, significant and important volume for Northern Ireland.
Forgiveness Remembers, ISBN: 978-1-909728-67-7, by Paul Farren and Robert Miller, is published by Instant Apostle and is available from bookshops and on-line retailers. 128pp, £6.99.

Special Operations Forces Training,
Khmelnytskyi, Ukraine, January 2016
"Last week, I had the pleasure of joining Maj. Gen. Gregory J. Lengyel, Commander of U.S. Special Operations Command Europe (SOCEUR), on his trip to Khmelnytskyi, where U.S. forces from the 10th Special Forces Group are training Ukrainian special operations forces as part of the Joint Multinational Training Group – Ukraine.
I welcomed the chance to hear from Deputy Minister of Defense Dolgov and Ukrainian Special Operations Forces Commander Major General Luniov on the status of Ukraine's special operations reform efforts, and to witness first-hand the classroom and field training U.S. and Allied special operations forces are providing Ukrainian special forces to enhance Ukraine's capability to defend itself in the face of relentless Russian aggression.

What I saw on my trip reaffirmed my confidence that the Ukrainian military is committed to moving forward with the process of reform — moving toward European institutions, a NATO-standard military, a NATO-standard special forces capability. We're very proud that the United States is part of that project.
I hope you'll take a few minutes to watch some of my trip highlights here."

The title of this post is intentionally provocatory, and should be read as "Will Intel acquire MIPS? If I was Intel, I would".
There is some speculation around the fact that Intel could try to acquire one of the two leading FPGA companies: a 30 percent premium would put Altera at approximately $8.5 billion and Xilinx at $8.7 billion.
But if I was at Intel, I would definitively try to enter again the embedded (and mobile) RISC market, where Intel was already years ago with the ARM-based XScale line of products that was then sold to Marvell in 2006.
That move stopped the flow of royalties from Intel to ARM, but the ARM architecture and microarchitecture still have a huge base of licensees due to the advantage of a minimal power consumption required by mobile devices, against with x86 cannot (still) compete.
Just to provide some numbers: the power consumption of a generic ARM core is around 300 mW, while the lowest power Atom is around ten times that.
And the market shows that a lot of microprocessors for mobile phones will be sold over the next few years.
Then, could Intel buy ARM now? The market capitalization of ARM Holdings is around 4 billions, and that's still a huge amount of money even for Intel.
Why don't buy MIPS instead? Their shares declined from a maximum (in year 2000) of 80$ to just 4$, so the market capitalization of MIPS Technologies is just around 200 millions, and this would be a very cheap purchase for the Intel giant.
And finally consider that currently MIPS lacks a CEO; and it wouldn't ever need one if it becomes a group inside Intel Corp.

A cruise control system which is capable of predicting and reacting to another car cutting into a motorist's lane using a smoother braking action is being launched by Honda.
The Intelligent Adaptive Cruise Control (i-ACC) system will be first introduced in the new European CR-V and takes a step forward from the traditional Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) system.
It is based on extensive real-world research of typical European driving styles.
The position of other vehicles on the road is picked up by the i-ACC using a camera and radar.
At this point, an algorithm is applied which calculates the likelihood of vehicles in neighbouring lanes cutting in.
Due to the way that traditional ACC systems work, by keeping a pre-selected longitudinal velocity and maintaining a safe distance to the car in front, braking movements tend to be stronger than with i-ACC.
The chances of a car cutting in are predicted by up to five seconds beforehand by the new i-ACC system, Honda said, meaning that any braking action tends to be smoother and much less stressful for the driver.

Global water tariffs continue upward trend

A 6.8% rise in global water tariffs masks significant changes in the way local authorities calculate their rates. David Zetland gets behind the numbers.
Global water tariffs rose by an average of 6.8% between July 2010 and July 2011 at constant exchange rates. The average combined water and wastewater tariff in the 308 major cities represented in GWI's 2011 Water Tariff Survey is $2.03/m3. This sum is calculated by taking the bill for a household using 15m3 a month, and then dividing the total by 15 to enable a comparison between different charging structures.
Among the 271 cities for which we have data for both 2010 and 2011, the city with the biggest increase in water prices is Memphis, USA (up 80% due to the costs of complying with clean water regulations).
At the other end of the scale, prices fell by the most in Tbilisi, Georgia (down 76% due to a move to volumetric metering that lowered prices for average users).
Tbilisi is the latest in a series of Eastern European cities to move from a system where no one has a meter to universal metering. The new metered rate for our benchmark 15m3/month household is significantly below the old non-metered rate, although the nonmetered rate had been subject to a large hike to incentivise people to sign up for a meter.
On the wastewater side, the price of collection and treatment increased by 115% per cubic metre in Memphis (see above). Meanwhile in Houston, USA, wastewater tariffs fell by 42% for our "average user". Although most blocks went up slightly in the latter city, the one applicable to our "average user" has fallen considerably owing to the differing data capture parameters.
Auckland, New Zealand, is the city with the biggest decrease in water tariffs (down 36.3%) that is not due to a change in the tariff structure affecting our "average user". The change ref lects the fact that Watercare Services took over the region's water and wastewater services on 1st November 2010, and subsequently introduced a standardised metropolitan water tariff with effect from 1st July 2011. A new schedule of wastewater charges will take much longer to implement, Watercare has warned.
There are also signs that sub-Saharan Africa is taking tariff reform seriously: Addis Ababa implemented its first rate hike since May 2007. Although it was a relatively major rise (24%), the city still has one of the lowest water prices in the survey in US dollar terms.
Residential water is free in Cork, Dublin, Belfast, and Ashgabat. The fact that water is free in Cork and Dublin increases pressure on government finances, and the ongoing financial crisis in Ireland may have the effect of forcing those prices to rise above zero sooner rather than later.
Dollarised wastewater collection and treatment tariffs in the 248 cities for which we have data range from a high of $5.68/m3 in Aarhus (Denmark) to zero.
An examination of combined tariffs reveals that the most expensive city for turning on the tap or f lushing the toilet is Aarhus, at just over $10.00/m3. Of the 29 cities with a combined tariff of more than $5.00/m3, two are in the Caribbean, three are in the US, four are in Australia, and 25 are in northern and western Europe.
Several cities have split out wastewater charges more explicitly than before this year (e.g. Oslo, Nantes, Aarhus and Nice). This gives the appearance of a big fall in water tariffs (which dropped by 59% in Oslo, for example), although the overall combined tariff remains comparable.
The countries with the most cities in the survey (USA with 27, China with 25 and India with 17) show significant domestic variation. The minimum, median and maximum prices per cubic metre of water are $0.53, $1.13 and $3.14 in the US, $0.17, $0.35 and $0.59 in China, and $0.05, $0.11 and $0.28 in India, respectively. There may be many reasons why prices vary within one country, but the lesson is clear: no country has "average" water prices.
We have water tariff data for 308 cities and wastewater tariffs for 248 cities. The most common rate structure in the survey is increasing block rates (151 cities), followed by linear rates (141 cities), decreasing block rates (9 cities) and fixed charges (7 cities). The correlation within water-wastewater price pairs is 67% (a 100% correlation would mean that water and wastewater prices moved in the same direction and at the same rate).
Correlation is more likely to be low when water and wastewater services are provided by different organisations, when one system or the other is subject to costly expansion or renovation, or when tariffs are fixed for one system but volumetric in the other. It's not uncommon to see wastewater costs recovered through water tariffs, but that structure is excluded from the 248 tariff pairs we have used to calculate this correlation.
In addition, tariff structure methodologies often ref lect unique local conditions. While many Latin American cities set tariffs based on household income, for example, prices in Israel depend on the water provider and block limits on the number of people in each household. In the French cities of Toulouse and Nice, meanwhile, the tariffs are calculated on the basis of postcodes.
The Turkish cities of Istanbul and Adana have a system whereby the tariff changes every month in line with inf lation. This methodology was implemented in the last year; previous rate adjustments had been less frequent. Additionally, Istanbul restructured its block limits in January 2011, leading to an above-inf lation year-on-year rise for our benchmark household.
Tariffs vary for three main reasons. First, the cost of supplying water services varies with local labour rates, the age and condition of infrastructure, the rate of infrastructure maintenance and replacement, local policies on water pricing, and water scarcity. Labour costs generally rise with GDP, but they are also affected by over- or under-staffing, public versus private operation, union or civil servant status, and other factors. Infrastructure conditions vary with system age and size, service mandates, management changes, and the ebb and f low of financing.
Local policies often keep water prices below the cost of service; the resulting financing gap is sometimes made up by cash transfers or increasing debt, but they can also result in future reductions in operation and maintenance expenditures.
Water scarcity can affect prices by forcing a utility to spend more money on expensive marginal sources of drinking water (including desalination and wastewater reuse) or by reducing the volume of water available to customers, which means that the price per unit of water sold has to rise so that total revenues cover (mostly fixed) total costs. It is difficult to know if or how these factors affect water and wastewater prices, but their variety suggests that policies create a range of effects.
Socially speaking
We have continued our reporting of social tariffs this year, although these do not represent the only way to help poorer people buy water: some governments give direct income support that is used to pay for water that is sold at its normal price. The social tariff data thus represent our best shot at a complex topic.
The full survey spreadsheet, complete with details of tariff structures and social tariffs, will be available to download from the GWI website at www.globalwaterintel. com within the next month. GWI subscribers will receive an email advising them when the spreadsheet has been uploaded; they will then be able to access the data via their usual GWI login.

Threat of Radical Islam
Is Radical Islam and Shariah Law a threat to our U.S Constitution and way of life?
There is a saying that we must consider. "The greatest advantage an enemy can have over you is to make you believe he does not exist." Islam is a governmental theocracy. Islam affects the First Amendment with its rights to freedom of speech and freedom of religion.
NOTE: Islam is not compatible with the US Constitution in a nation of laws.
Political correctness, ignorance, subversive activity…has allowed Islam to take a foothold in all levels of American society. In other words "Westerners" especially our American University students have been purposely dumbed down to the dangers presently facing our nation…even by many in governmental leadership in many states and our nation.
Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it:
Sharia law will not recognize nor is compatible with the U.S. Constitution. The Muslim Brotherhood (Terrorist Organization according to Holy Land Foundation Trial) are occupying positions in the highest levels of government including homeland security. This is not some type of conspiracy theory. It is a reality. Even the current refugee crisis in our open borders is allowing non-vetted individuals into our nation who carry the ideology of radical Islam. You might say this is America's Trojan horse…penetrating all levels of government thanks to the leniency of he Obama administration.
You must study history and see the motive behind the religion of Islam. Many are saying that Europe is already lost (by 2020) because of what we can call population Jihad. The results of the election of 2016 has given our nation a short reprieve. America must make some tough choices. True Americans must study and investigate what Islam stands for and represents looking at the past history.
Historical Look at Islam
University students in America as well as the majority of the American population have been duped in correctly understanding Islam and what it really is. American universities are occupied territory!
WE ARE NOT SAYING ALL MUSLIMS ARE BAD PEOPLE! Many in Islam are ignorant of their own religion just as many Christians are ignorant of Christianity. We call them blind followers. Many follow Islam out of fear!

The black and white pin on Phil Jackson's lapel was small, but carried a big message. It read: "Hoops for St. Jude."
It could easily have said: "Hoops for George Karl."
Jackson has joined a group of players and the Denver coach in their fight against cancer, a disease Karl is battling. The Nuggets coach recently disclosed that he has throat cancer and Jackson holds a long-standing affinity for the personable Karl.
"George, we've been rivals for a long time," Jackson said Tuesday. "He actually took over in Albany, New York after I left the Albany Patroons, a couple years later. He's coached in a many different spots that are kind of similar to what I've done. I went from my home in Flathead (Montana) to watch his team in Great Falls when he was a CBA coach, coaching in the Finals of the CBA one year.
"He was wearing a powder blue tux with a white ruffled shirt."
George Karl's son, Coby, also was born in Great Falls, connecting more dots between the two veteran coaches.
The Hoops for St. Jude program began as a small fundraiser, when Minnesota Timberwolves rookie Kevin Love agreed to sponsor an internet auction of 60 rookie jerseys to benefit St. Jude Hospital. All 30 NBA teams supported St. Jude and the auction raised more than $26,000.
Since then, more NBA stars have gotten involved in a more direct way – by making a donation for every point they score throughout the season in support of St. Jude. Pau Gasol, Shane Battier, Rudy Gay, Danny Granger, Steve Blake, and Love have pledged to donate to St. Jude for every point they score this NBA season.

Just feeling a little "square" today.
Square in the best sense.
I always like to push peoples expectations of what things mean
Music today by a group that does the same musically. They are Squarepusher which I can only describe as electro-glitchy-bleep-pop. Hows that for a description? Undoubtedly many of you will not last 1 minute into this video. And if it is the first thing you see today please don't watch it until after you're fully awake! It WILL do you harm. There! A challenge and a warning. Hows that? 🙂
Squarepusher – DARK STEERING from their 2012 album UFABULUM
Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend.

A leading Roman Catholic Bishop of Arundel and Brighton, Kieran Conry has resigned after his shame affair with a 43-year-old married parishioner. The 63-year-old who confessed on Saturday Sept 27 of being unfaithful says 'I'm so glad my affair secret is out.'
'It has been difficult keeping the secret,. 'In some respects I feel very calm. It is liberating. It is a relief. I have been very careful not to make sexual morality a priority [in his sermons]. I don't think it got in the way of my job, I don't think people would say I have been a bad bishop. But I can't defend myself. I did wrong. Full stop,' he tells Mail.
In a handwritten love letter dated earlier this month, he wrote to the 43-year-old woman: 'It's all right to say that [your husband] did bad things, but you knew that he didn't love you. You know (I hope) that I did. And I did, and do.' The letter was signed: 'your K xxxxxx.' He however denied that they had a sexual relationship, although he admitted she had stayed at his house in Pease Pottage, West Sussex.
Conry is also been accused of a second affair with a married parishioner 20 years his junior, who spent at least three nights at his home. Meanwhile, the woman's husband threatens to sue church bosses who he claimed knew of the affair for years.

A Guide in Choosing the Best VPN Services
If you are new to VPN services you will really find out yourself having overloaded with information. The terms used cannot just be found and understood in a second. So you must read this article and find out how to choose the best VPN for you. Remember that in choosing a VPN technology you must always consider where you will be using the service either at home, at school, at work, or for your personal use. Cost, security, and reliability must be there all the time.
Now, ask yourself "Why do I need VPN"? In this way you will be guided with the features a VPN service offers. If you have determined where to use it, then read through the following lines on what do you need to consider in choosing from those VPN services.
Bandwidth Factors. It is always wise to choose an unlimited bandwidth. If it is an unlimited bandwidth, ask the provider for the cost. Some provider's offers unlimited but it has monthly charges. Take a look on your budget if you can reach it. If not, there are VPN services that offer bundle programs. Check the programs before buying the service.
Classes of VPN Connection. Make sure that the connection used is fast like PPTP and L2TP/IPSec. Talking about security consider OPENVPN. If you are more on privacy, chose VPN services that use OPENVPN as their connection. On the other hand, if it is more of personal use or home use, check services with PPTP and L2TP/IPSec since it is more into speed.
Security Provided. Read the terms and conditions. This section is often rejected by most of us. What we are more into is the drive to use the system immediately. But we do not even know what the restrictions the service provides. Do not click "Accept" if you were not able to understand the terms given. This will affect the level of security in the future.
Money Back Feature. There are trial services given by some of the VPN services. Well, if you will need to try it first, then why not? When service fails the first few days then get your money and sign up to other service. Do not waste your time to a VPN service which is not what you are looking for.
Provides Reliable and Cheaper Monthly Costs. The most important factor you must consider is when you subscribed to the service, try to evaluate if you are happy. When you're happy with the service you will not get extra and unwanted charges every month. Do not waste your money into something unreliable. Check the web if there are bad reviews with that certain VPN provider so you will have a glimpse of what they will do to you. Some will use lower introductory price but when your monthly bill comes is, you might see a triple charge from the service provider.
Those were few factors to look into when choosing the BEST VPN service. You need to go deeper on what the VPN services offer before making any decisions.

The iFit Cuisine Spiral Slicer is another addition to my "must have" list of items for everyone's kitchen, and it's one of my personal favorites to use. Vegetables twist down through those blades with ease, and there's no catching. You know how you use some of those spiral cutters and you have to pull your vegetable back out and start all over again…well, not with this one. It's Smooth and simple. It's extremely easy to use, and the cleanup is fantastic!
It also comes with a small brush that will help get into those little areas that are razor sharp! Yay! No more cutting the fingers for the dishwasher (ssh, don't tell anyone, it's my husband) around here! The cleaning brush is a brilliant idea. I really am a fan of the iFit Cuisine Spiral Slicer!
iFit Cuisine Spiral Slicer
Besides the iFit Cuisine Spiral Slicer is one of my favorite kitchen gadgets, it's also one of the healthiest ways to substitute those high carb noodles and also disguise those vegetables and sneak them in on your family! Spiral cutting is now fun around here! I use it on summer squash and zucchini, cucumbers, carrots, radishes, and many other wonderful fresh vegetables. This would be a wonderful gift for all those veggies lovers, or anyone for that matter wanting a healthier outlook on what and how they eat. I would recommend anyone and everyone to get the iFit Cuisine Spiral Slicer and start twisting up your vegetables.
From my kitchen to yours,
Disclosure: I received one or more of the products mentioned above in exchange for review from Giveaway Service website. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.
Head on over to the iFit Cuisine, their official website to find you can find out more about the Spiral Slicer and their other products.
Two of these images was provided by iFit Cuisine, with permission. The other was taken right in my kitchen.
How do you serve up your noodles in disguise? Please share below…

Maid for DisciplineTuesday, December 4, 2012
Maid for Discipline
We had such a good response for our photo-story of young Kali Redmond, the lazy maid that was severely punished, that we have decided that you should see the film as soon as possible. Kali is given one of the hardest hand spankings we have done which turns her poor cheeks scarlet followed by a particularly nasty hairbrush onto her naked bottom. Being a Scot we decided that she should then get a severe dose of the Scottish 3-tail tawse on her bare buttocks, making her knees buckle.

Jack U To Perform NYE Show at Madison Square Garden
Although New Years may be months away, rumors of Jack U performing a legendary New Year's Eve show have now been confirmed; Jack U will be hosting an 18+ event at Madison Square Garden. The LiveNation ticket site confirmed the rumors with a page devoted to the event.
After the cancellation of the third day of New York's Electric Zoo, and a surgence of pop-up parties throughout NYC, the duo promised their undeniable return to the city. That promise has been held true with the announcement of this epic New Year's Eve bash.
The Diplo and Skrillex collaboration will take MSG by storm on Wednesday December 31st, at 9pm EDT. This upcoming Thursday at 2pm EST, presale tickets will drop for the highly anticipated NYE event. Keep an eye out for more details, presale tickets, and more here.
EDIT: LiveNation appears to have taken down the link to the ticket site. We are unsure if the site was not supposed to be live yet, or if someone made a mistake of posting something on their site that wasn't true. We will update you with more information when it is available!

So me and my boyfriend have been together for a while. we both are madly in love and have planned for the future. future home, kids, etc. Funny thing is, is he's been the one to be the first to bring these things up. Well about two months ago, I asked if we were going to move in before getting married or vise-versa, he said he'd been researching that topic for a while (I had no idea at the time) and said he would prefer we get married before. he's going to boot camp for four years come next year and I asked if we would possible be engaged before he left. he said "shh. don't ruin my plans" (granted I wasn't being serious just being a brat) but anyways. recently he's been acting different. more attentive, more clingy and touchy even around his friends. I'm not complaining. but he had a lot saved up month ago and now he's pretty much living off he's two weeks pay and has to wait next week for his next paycheck. Here's the thing, he hasn't bought anything expensive aside from food but that wouldn't make him go broke. before he wouldn't have a problem discussing money with me and now he's so secretive. so I guess my question is, was he serious about the whole engagement thing? and is there anyway to know for sure without flat out asking him?
Is there anyway to know without flat out asking?
Have an opinion?
What Guys Said 1
Nope. If you really love him, trust him and let the universe do it's whole day to day thing. based on the few clues you gave, it sounds like he could be planning a special day for you just before leaving. One where he might present you with a ring. Don't work yourself up about it because you never know what the future holds and you could be reading into things. If I were you, I would just spend as much of your energy as possible enjoying every minute of him now without worrying about it because you might not get to see him very much for a long time.
Don't work yourself up and miss out on the short time that is left before he goes. relax, and enjoy him.00|00|0

SEE ALSO: EXO share blissful moments from their trip to Dubai
The music video for "Lotto" hit 3 million viewers in less than a day, the track snagged an all-kill, and the 3rd repackaged album featuring the song is what awarded EXO the triple millionaire crown. However, the EXO members shared they were surprised by the success.
In a recent interview, the boys commented on their recent all-kill, saying, "It's a song that's a different genre than what we've shown you so far, so honestly, we didn't expect a #1. That's why we waited until 1AM after the song release to look at the chart, and we were happy and surprised to see it at #1. We sincerely thank EXO-L and everyone who loves our music. Please look forward to our performances."
They added, "We felt once again how much people love EXO, and we feel that much burdened. We'll do our best to repay you with music."

This weekend's wicked weather was no match for carnival.
Thousands of revelers turned out to Sun Life Stadium Sunday to experience South Florida's take on the age-old tradition.
Despite the drizzle, the annual parade of masquerade bands…. with its dancers in sequined costumes and feathered headdresses, steel bands and 18-wheelers blasting infectious soca music…..did not disappoint.
"I love the music, the people," said Rose Paul, 19, of Fort Lauderdale, but originally from Haiti. She spent months preparing. She wore an intricate banana-yellow costume decorated with gold sequins and tropical flowers. Grapes and leaves flowed from her dark hair.
"Rain never stops carnival," said Jazmine Reyner, a 21-year-old Miamian originally from Nicaragua.
Carnival originated hundreds of years ago in Italy as a pre-Lent festival. It now takes place around the world.
In the past, Miami-Dade and Broward held individual carnivals, sometimes on the same day. But for the past three years, organizers have opted for a joint celebration called Miami Broward One Carnival.
The South Florida festival is the last stop on the Caribbean carnival circuit, which starts in Trinidad and Tobago and swings through London, Toronto and New York.
The local carnival got off to a bass-pumping start Saturday with SocaFest, an all-night party devoted to the fast-paced Caribbean style of music.
But for many, the highlight of the weekend was Sunday's parade.
Hundreds of dancers took part, many wearing the colors of their home countries. They followed two dozen floats through the streets of Miami Gardens before making a grand entrance into Sun Life Stadium, where parade judges and spectators waited.
Destiny Mintey, 6, was awed by the beautiful women with long, false eyelashes and glittering skin who sashayed before her.
"The best thing is the costumes," the first-grader said. "They are really pretty."
More than anything else, Sunday was a celebration of diverse cultures.
Among the countries represented: the Bahamas, Belize, Guyana, Haiti, Jamaica, Puerto Rico, Trinidad and Tobago, the United States and the Virgin Islands.
There was even a group of 50 young adults from Denmark.
Yes, Denmark.
"We're here on a field trip," Christian Petri, 20, said. "We saw that this was happening and thought it would be a good way to experience Miami."
True to the spirit of the day, the Danish students came in costume. They wore matching light brown guayabera shirts and white fedoras festooned with long feathers and sequins.
Said Petri: "There is definitely nothing like this in Denmark."
Early Sunday, it seemed the weather would not cooperate.
A heavy downpour delayed the start of the parade. When the rain stopped, it was sizzling hot.
The revelers hardly noticed.
Nickole Moretta, 74, strolled down the street in a glittering bra top and a skirt made from colorful, mismatched fabrics.
A carnival veteran, Moretta nearly missed this year's celebration.
"Less than a year ago, she had a torn aorta," said her son, local radio personality Mohamed Moretta. "She had to have heart surgery."
"I was dead for five minutes," the mother interjected, her hips swaying to the music, her finger pointing to the long scar on her chest.
But Nickole Moretta recovered in time for this year's event. "I never miss carnival," she said.

The difference between being honest & being rude.
Thank you for being rude.
I'd like to start this hub by thanking someone for being rude to me as it prompted me to consider why some people appear to take pride in being rude (or "honest" as they call it). Rather than brood over what they said I've decided to use it as motivation to share some of the techniques I train regarding how to give feedback appropriately and demonstrate that it's perfectly possible to be honest and assertive without being rude.
Don't sit on my laptop!
Don't do it!
Many of us are pretty good at telling people not to do things. "Don't sit there", "Don't talk over me in meetings" and so on, and we don't understand why it doesn't have the desired results. Why don't they just stop doing whatever it is? Can't they see how much it's annoying us?
Well the answer is no, they probably can't see how much it's annoying you, mainly because they can't read your mind. You also haven't mentioned anything about what you do want, so until mankind invents telepathy we're going to have to tell them.
Put simply we need to explain a little more aboout just what the problem is and why it's annoying us so much and what we'd like them to do instead. We also need to "own the feedback" which means not being afraid to describe how it's impacting on us.
Some Useful Books
Love this book - light hearted and easy to read.
OK, so how do I do that?
I'm very glad you asked. Just follow these 3 simple steps:
Explain the problem.
Describe how it's impacting on you.
Let them know what you'd prefer instead.
No, it doesn't suit a neat little acronym I'm afraid but it does work, for example:
"John, when you interrupt me during meetings it prevents me getting to the point as quickly as I'd like, I'd really appreciate it if next time you've got something to say you could wait until I'm done speaking."
Of course how you say this will be important too - no good hissing it through clenched teeth or delivering it with an air of sarcasm,
Time it right.
Timing is everything.
If you're in the middle of an argument, or either of you is emotionally charged then this is less likely to work. Ideally you need address the issue at a neutral time when you've got the opportunity to discuss things rather more rationally.
And if you're wondering how to calm things when faced with someone who's "kicking off" then remember to remain calm yourself and try to ask questions rather than tell someone exactly what you think. Calmly saying "Can I ask why you're raising your voice?" generally gets you further than yelling "stop yelling at me!" (Why should they stop yelling at you when you're yelling at them?)
There's no magic wand.
Sadly there is no magic formula I can give you that will work perfectly 100% of the time, however the techniques I've briefly described above will help if you need to give feedback to another individual and wish to do so in a balanced and appropriate manner.
It's important to deliver any feedback with absolute respect for the individual concerned, as I've already mentioned, none of us are mind readers so have no idea as to exactly why the individual is behaving in the way they are.
But what if they're rude to me?
If someone is rude to you then remind yourself that you cannot control their behviours but you can control how you respond to them and, as Eleanor Roosevelt famously said "No one can make you feel inferior without your consent."
Why did that person feel the need to be so rude to me? I've no idea, but I like to think I've done something a little positive thanks to their input.
I hate rude editors I had to put a hub editor. In they place.
Great advice! It seems we have forgotten manners in our society and I love your reminder!
What excellent advice. This was really good to read. I am so bad about letting people run all over me.
Beth, you have written on my pet subject!As I am a sensitive person (so rude people say I am) I have tried different approaches to rudeness but none work too well for me. I found the best way to show up anothers rudeness to go into 'silent mood' myself. It works,with the other party noticing the mood swing. I refuse to lower myself to the same level as one with a 'sharp' tongue.
Thanks for the info Beth!
Thanks for the interesting hub. It has some very practical advice I am anxious to try with some very rude, excuse me, honest person I know too!
I am reading this laughing. Why? It it hits home! I have a rude, er, "honest", friend and I am so done with her "honesty". So the laugh is one of "you nailed it for me".
I'm glad I am not the only one seeing this. :-)
Great hub, short, sweet, and informative. Yes, keeping it positive is so good, and can be a daily challenge to grow to where it becomes second nature to step back and think about how we can phrase our needs for the best results.
Thanks for the tips. :0)
Came across your hub. Nice writing. For me, there is a thin line when comes to being honest and many times, people mistaken it as rude. Using the right words might be your best and always think before you act. Being too straight forward isn't good for both parties :)
Keep up your writing and thanks for sharing.

text: I have a neighbor kid I was thinking of taking out this season just to pick up trash and run a 21" mower. He is 15 years old and has nothing to do all summer so I was thinking of giving him a shot to making a little money over the summer. I was going to pay him 6 $ an hour but not make him work like a dog either. If he works out I could pay him more money next season. What's your take on this idea? Legally or whatever? Tim

Oh my goodness! My heart breaks for you and everything you are going through! Do they have any idea what put you into cardiac arrest?
At many hospital ICU's you can ask for a privacy screen to be brought to you to use while pumping. I've used it my self when I was held at the hospital for a time. I know that if you could do that one thing, it might put your mind at ease a little bit. ICU nurses are tough. I'm so so so sorry, but I am so glad you are OK.

Patient Reviews for Ramez Habib MD FACS
Dr. Habib and staff are amazing! My daughter has such a fear of doctors, but Dr. Habib made her feel at ease, and she actually looks forward to visiting his office. The best part is that we are always seen at the time of our appointment. I've never had to wait! I highly recommend ENT and Allergy Associates.

Patient Reviews for Ramez Habib MD FACS
I went today and saw Dr. Ramez Habib because of dizziness. He was able to confirm that I have a mild case and gave me an exercise to do. He was extremely professional, he took the time to explain what was going on with me and why it was happening. He helped explain what the next steps could be if this doesn't go away. He is awesome and I'm so glad that I found him! I also found the staff to be extremely helpful and kind.

Patient Reviews for Ramez Habib MD FACS
Dr. Ramez Habib is extremely professional, curteous, and friendly. He listens to my questions and vows to get to the source of the problem. He is concerned for my symptoms and stresses, and together, he has helped me tremendously in solving my ENT problems. I trust him and feel very comfortable with his expertise. I would highly recommend Dr. Ramez Habib to anyone who needs a wonderful ENT doctor.

Patient Reviews for Ramez Habib MD FACS
Dr. Habib, my otolarynxologist (ear, nose and throat) at ENT Allergy in Park Slope, Brooklyn, NY is a pro who shines with very wonderful patient relationships. He is very friendly, pleasant and informative and never hesitates to answer any questions you, as a patient, might have. He doesn't talk down to you but treats his patients as equals in the doctor/patient relationship. Highly recommended. By the way, the entire staff at ENT earns my high marks as well: from the receptionists to the professional aides - they make you feel welcome and comfortable. I'm very happy with the efficient and professional way this office is run.

I've been to him twice. I thought I was losing my hearing, but after a thorough exam, he cleaned my ears and said I was fine...which I was. No problems since. I think he's very into his work.

RUSH: I want to take you back to this program on November 3rd of 2008. This is the day before Barack Obama was elected. November 4, 2008 was Election Day. I listen to this and I actually get sick. Cookie will give me the sound bites of all the things that I said prior to Obama being elected, after he was elected and before he was immaculated. And in all the predictions I've made before he was nominated, before he was elected, before he was inaugurated, they've all been true. Every damn one of them has come true, and it just makes me sick. Honestly, folks. Listen to this. November 3rd, 2008, as I was desperately trying to get the country to understand what was at stake.
RUSH: "Several new weapons systems will be slashed and older weapons retired. The military cutbacks have been a central feature of Obama's policies since 2009," when he was immaculated into office. "According to former Defense Secretary Robert Gates, in his recently published book Duty, since entering office, the president has worked to cut US defenses in order to use the funds for domestic programs," like food stamps. However, that's just the practical on-the-surface result. The motivation for this is what is hideous, the reason for doing this. It isn't just to transfer the expenditures from defense to social and create dependence and keep Democrats in power.
There's something more hideous to this, folks. And it is what it is. And it is about reducing the power and the glory of the United States, because in the minds of these collective leftists, it was never warranted. It was never deserved. We were the problem in the world. We and our military were the focus of evil. We imposed ourselves on free people. And we took their resources, like their oil, and we took their diamonds, and we took their minerals, and we took everything to make ourselves a superpower and made them poor. We didn't pay them for what we stole, in essence. It's time that we were cut down to size.

Ambient storytelling is brought up constantly when one talks about the affect of mythos and world-building in fiction. For a narrative to be immersive, the storied vision requires layering and textured detailing of the seemingly irrelevant, so the illusion of malleable reality can be made more effective.

Ghost in the Shell & The Post-World Human | Identity & Self in a Cyber-Network
Duality: a simple but demonstratively cardinal term. The expressionistic properties of 'duality' alone can already form the metaphorical backbone of the most impressionable citings of physics, philosophy, mythology and visual arts in human history. Balance in its purest form constitutes two opposing beings; physical or otherwise, keeping each other in check. Gravity and mass, good and evil, light and dark. Man and machine.
Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid: Brainstorm | Watching People Watch Anime
Opening remarks: I originally intended this piece to be a particularly academic-driven one…digging deep into the likes of Mark Lochrie & Paul Coulton's article on shared viewing experiences or 'Social TV' and 'Second Screen Devices', and Alice E. Marwick's paper on 'Imagined Audiences and Context Collapse in Microblogging'. Elements of these studies are still retained in the final product, but I decided to keep discussion more centred on Dragon Maid and my own experiences in watching it…and ultimately deciding that it is an absolute new favourite.
The Undine That Guides Me | Aria's First Evergreen Ballad and the Undercurrents of its Melody
There is a sense of idyllic rhythm that Aria exerts when one allows him or herself to engage with its cinematic heartbeat. It's obvious: everything has its own rhythm, its own footprint, when it makes contact with another existing entity. If one takes this idea far enough, existence is just another way to visualise and define relationships. And creating rhythm is but another expression for finding uniquity.
Your Name | Kimi no Na wa: Interpreting Progress in Gender and Rule-breaking
(All plugs are pulled. Full spoiling ahead.)
Your Name | Kimi no Na wa (I will be referring to the film via. the former title from now on) is essentially about progress through violation. The film is readily clear on that account, and certainly enough for any number of viewing audiences to immediately identify that about its cinematic delivery.
Best of Summer 2016: When Amanchu Shines, it's Blinding | Final Reflections
I don't really have an absolute favourite show last season. I mean, if we were speaking in MAL scoring terms, nothing I finished in the Summer season I would score above a 7, if not the hypothetical 7.75/10.
Granted, I started but never finished Mob Psycho 100 (I know, I should. I will. Eventually.) I also never finished Sweetness and Lightning, and that's a show that tugged at my heartstrings numerous times in just three episodes.
BUT. Moments. There are moments in shows that spoke volumes to me, whether its on a immediate emotional level, or on a more…philosophical and worldview level.
Grimgar & Re:Zero | Genre's Arbitrary Formulas And Narratives That Challenge Them
Note: Spoilers for both Grimgar and Re:Zero are aplenty.
I appreciated Grimgar Of Fantasy and Ash after watching it to completion recently as a semi-marathon. For the most part, its character studies and the evident focus on atmosphere and a sense of place; rather than the much more often tread adventure fantasy with a clearly defined end goal of saving the world, has given the series a muted presence that ironically made its voice project louder amongst all the background noise. Similar things can be said about Re:Zero, now that it has finished its prolific rampage across the fandom's collective stream of consciousness…though the reasons behind its highly resonant dual-season run were in complete contrast to Grimgar, as it projects its agenda of social commentary with unrelenting shamelessness and sincerity. In the end, while both series has no doubt invited significant viewership, and inevitable controversy on their respective handling of narrative delivery, I found myself once again standing right in the middle of the crossfire: appreciating what both shows have so admirably achieved, while also contemplating about their various failings.

If you have a) any knowledge of moe and slice of life, b) a love for moe and slice of life, c) an intense hatred for moe and slice of life, or d) read enough of my posts to notice a common pattern in subject matters, then you would be aware of the basic recipe for success of such shows: the construction of a world that's charming and relaxing, and a cast of characters who are teeth-rottingly adorable.
The Genius of Sound! Euphonium: Kakedasu Monaka OVA | The Magic in Interactions
Perhaps the best way to describe Kyoto Animation's venture with Hibike! Euphonium is by literally contradicting myself: it is a work of complex simplicity. The emotional dissonance that exists, when a large group of individuals come together is typical of the atmosphere that you may find in a musical ensemble. Long story short, this OVA works as an alternate perspective provider on the emotional climax towards the latter end of the series, and it does it superbly.

The Spark of a Photographer
There's a general consensus, that photographs are just fragments of frozen time and moments, nothing more. We take them on a whim, hoping to save a split second of amazement or amusement, and in a world where social media and smartphones rule societies, it seems that the significance of photographs are becoming less…intimate.
In reality, there exists an almost…interdimensional relationship between a photo, its subject and the photographer: there's a REASON WHY a photo was taken and WHY this particular subject was chosen, framed and shot. These actions acuminate from personal emotions and attachments between the documenter and the documented. Photographs that are…truly wonderful are those that had managed to capture a fragment of heartfelt fervour when the shutter button was pushed…or where a moment of preciousness fluttering through the air was captured permanently onto a single, perfect image.
