Armand Morin, self-Made multimillionaire, is one of the most well known Internet marketers in the world today. Last year alone, Armand Morin has spoken in front of and personally trained well over 200,000 people.
PersuasionX is an exclusive 3-day seminar where Armand Morin openly shares his personal sales techniques.
These subtle (but powerful) persuasion strategies were responsible for generating Armand over $12 million in sales during the last two years – all from 90 minute presentations.
The best part is that students who have also used these same techniques have also had tremendous success.
All they did was tweak a few minor things but the results were dramatic…
One person went from selling zero one week to $82,000 the next. Another person had a similar story because he went from zero to $74,000 shortly afterwards.
One of the first stories was from someone who got advice BEFORE his presentation and then sold $75,000 during his next presentation.
This event is NOT for everyone.
If you have no intention of speaking from stage, then it's definitely not for you.
If you don't plan on hosting a teleseminar in the next year, this isn't for you.
If you aren't someone who plans on selling any kind of product or service in the next year, don't click the link below.
However if you want to learn the powerful techniques to help you win over any audience and dramatically improve your sales, then reserve your seat now.
NOTE: Armand Morin now teaches online, join his training here.

Canberra, AAP – The federal government has vowed to push ahead with its higher education reforms despite leading universities warning they will withdraw support if it's too compromised.
The Group of Eight leading universities says it is concerned the Senate will not accept deregulation of university fees, and that the original intention of reforms has been lost because of a series of compromises by Education Minister Christopher Pyne to win over hostile crossbench senators.
Any package passed by the Senate would be so highly watered down that it could no longer be acceptable.
'We support deregulation as an alternative model – that isn't going to happen in this Senate,' the group's chief executive Vicki Thomson told AAP on Tuesday.
'In the absence of any solution we need to press the reset button and have a review of the sector.'
Ms Thomson said a new review of university and research funding should be de-politicised to remove the political animosity towards deregulation.
However, Mr Pyne has rejected that proposal, arguing the sector has already faced 33 reviews since 1950.
'Another is not a substitute for action,' a spokesman for the minister told AAP in a statement.
The government had the right policy for higher education.
'And we will continue to press it,' the spokesman said.
The reforms could head back to the Senate for a third time during the winter sitting period, after being rejected twice by the upper house.
Independent senator Nick Xenophon, who voted against the bill both times, said the government should heed the calls for another review as an alternative to its 'radical' deregulation reforms.
'Obviously I didn't teach (Mr Pyne) negotiation skills very well – I apologise to the Australian people for that,' he told ABC radio, a reference to his days as Mr Pyne's tutor.

- Stay open-minded – As a new Rastafari, it is important to stay open-minded. There are many people, books, and much history to learn from. Never assume you "know all there is to know" about Rastafari…this is the point where you may stop learning.
- Rastafari is not a religion – Never Refer to Rastafari as a Religion. Rasta refers to Rastafari as "a faith" "a Livity " a meditation" "a spirituality" "a way of Life" but never a Religion. Religion is of man, Rastafari comes from Jah.
- Accept your self as Growing – Rastafari is something you will embrace your whole life. The more you love Jah, and his creations, the more his heart grows in yours. Know that to "grow" as a Rasta, is a beautiful process. accept it, embrace it, and enjoy it…continuously.
- Love Jah! – Just love Jah and all things will fall into place through him. Jah is love!
- Love The African Image African woman, African man, African child, are all beauties of Rastafari. Rasta knows the first man and woman were created in Ethiopia Africa. We see beauty in the image of the African human.
- Listen to "Rastafari Reggae Music" – Rastafari only listen to Rastafari Reggae music. Why? We know this music is clean…and…we can here the word of Jah in this music. You too should listen to "Jah" music.
Know you are being Tested!
– As soon as you embrace the Rastafari Livity you notice yourself being "tested"…left, right and center. It's just that Satan is "vex" because you have chosen to live in truth and walk in the light of Jah. its normal, keep trodding on the high rod. Jah is there.

Love & Blessings to All. King Selassie I.

About Book
Book Description
There were heroic lives and deaths before and after, but none quite like Socrates'. He did not die by sword or spear, braving all to defend home and country, but as a condemned criminal, swallowing a painless dose of poison. And yet Socrates' death in 399 BCE has figured large in our world ever since, shaping how we think about heroism and celebrity, religion and family life, state control and individual freedom, the distance of intellectual life from daily activity--many of the key coordinates of Western culture. In this book Emily Wilson analyzes the enormous and enduring power the trial and death of Socrates has exerted over the Western imagination.
Beginning with the accounts of contemporaries like Aristophanes, Xenophon, and, above all, Plato, the book offers a comprehensive look at the death of Socrates as both a historical event and a controversial cultural ideal. Wilson shows how Socrates' death--more than his character, actions, or philosophical beliefs--has played an essential role in his story. She considers literary, philosophical, and artistic works--by Cicero, Erasmus, Milton, Voltaire, Hegel, and Brecht, among others--that used the death of Socrates to discuss power, politics, religion, the life of the mind, and the good life. As highly readable as it is deeply learned, her book combines vivid descriptions, critical insights, and breadth of research to explore how Socrates' death--especially his seeming ability to control it--has mattered so much, for so long, to so many different people.
About the Author
Emily Wilson is Assistant Professor of Classical Studies, University of Pennsylvania. She is the author of Mocked with Death: Tragic Overliving from Sophocles to Milton.

Larry was a dear friend to me and many others at Parkdale High School in Riverdale , MD , where I taught with him in the early 70's - a wild and pivotal time saturated with joyous memories.
The photos of him, his quirky smile, gentle eyes, bring tears to mine...May you rest in peace old comrade!
Larry was a loyal friend and fellow artist since he moved to San Jose 20 years ago to work at Bellarmine. He came into the gallery where I worked, volunteered immediately and ended up being President of the Board. He was the nicest, kindest, sweetest friend I could have. I will remember the good times, how hard we worked, and our friendship. I will miss him forever & never forget him.
Larry and I were very close in the 1970s. He was a man of great creativity. He always hoped to touch the truth with his art. I know he will be missed by many.
Today, April 30, is Larry's Birthday. If God has a refrigerator, Larry's picture is on it.

Nothing is sexier on a man than these…
There are many things that women find attractive in men – confidence, leader among men, sexy jaw lines, bulging biceps, hard-rock abs, a cute smile and gorgeous eyes. But according to science, there is one thing that acutely triggers every woman's most basic instinct when looking for the perfect mate– the musk of men.
Over time, we have refined our senses and have embraced the scents we most desire in men. All these fragrances are available in all leading department stores in the Philippines.
Here, we share the Top 9 Sexiest Male Fragrances of all time, and the men who wear them.
- Bvlgari Man Black Cologne
Bold and charismatic, this evocative scent was inspired by the myth of the Vulcan, god of the Earth, but perfectly suits the modern man.
Vulcan is known to harness the power of fire to dominate his enemies and the same time use its energy to fertilize. And if Greek Mythology is to be believed, Vulcan is rumored to have impregnated at least 3 goddesses and is the father of Jupiter. Master perfumer, Albert Morillas call this "the scent of burning water", magmatic and powerful. Have Jonathan Rhys-Meyers commanding presence in every project management meeting, go through your day like a brilliant burst of fire, and most of all have that energy to get the goddess.

While everything for the conference has been going well, I have had to deal with some personal issues lately. After a rather hectic week with my husband out of town and me playing the part of a single parent, I sent my daughter to Grandma's house on Friday night, which is never hard to do; both for me to have some time to myself and for her to get spoiled by Grandma. I went to book club, had a fantastic time with amazing, creative, interesting women, and then came home and listened to the messages from calls I had missed.
I have a house that I used to live in but it's now a rental and my tenant had called and left a message that the house was flooded. Totally flooded. I'm not talking a little, but a lot, where the floors are ruined and need to be replaced. So this weekend I had to file a claim with my insurance. This, just after an auto claim three weeks ago for an accident I was in by the way.
I relate this to the conference by realizing that there are always going to be kinks in the plan. We as women and mothers have a lot to juggle and sometimes it gets overwhelming, sometimes we feel no support but most of the time for me personally, the support is there when I open myself up to it. For this particular weekend, my neighbor had a fresh supply of friends with kids at his house that kept my daughter busy and my brain occupied, he took his son and Delilah for a walk so I could file my claim without interruptions. My mom spent more time with Delilah and came by the next day to take me to lunch and talk about the house. The women who are my tenants were so helpful and calm and willing to leave the house and do what they had to do to make this as smooth as possible not only for them, but for me as well. There were also the multitude of people on Facebook, whose comments helped keep me from losing it. And of course my husband, away on his first vacation alone in a long time, his calm reassurance that everything will be fine.
And I have another thought… Had this happened on any other evening, rather than this one that I spent with women that I respect and cherish, who inspire me, who uplift me, I may have reacted differently. Instead of getting all worked up about the damage, the cost, the hassel, I just accepted it. I was feeling too good to let much get to me and for that I'm grateful. It is about support and community. It's about surrounding yourself with people who make you feel good and letting them hold the umbrella over your head when that little black rain cloud won't stop following you around.
Now, I must get back to work and get this thing off the ground!!
Let's find answers to most popular questions about the matter. Some medicaments are generally used to treat divers types of bacteria, such as pneumonia and infections of the ear.

In a case that went all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court, Child Evangelism Fellowship argued that they were entitled to operate in public schools because they are running a social and moral enrichment program akin to Scouting.
Much to the dismay of church-state watchdogs, a majority of the Court agreed, but to call Good News Clubs moral enrichment by secular standards or to liken it to Scouting, is a stretch. Despite evangelical influences in the Boy Scouts, scouting programs to a large degree emphasize virtues that are prized across both secular and religious wisdom traditions. Good News Clubs teach dark, divisive and potentially traumatic doctrines that are unique to fundamentalist forms of Christianity.
And they teach them on public school property, thanks to a disastrous Supreme Court decision. The fact that they're on school property of course deceives children into thinking they're part of school, and thus teaching the truth.
The Good News Club curriculum is filled with over 5,000 references to sin and thousands more to obedience, punishment, and hell. It stresses Old Testament narratives of a retributive God who must punish sin, warns children that they will suffer an eternity in hell if they refuse to believe, and stresses complete obedience as the supreme value. Good News Club tells children as young as preschoolers that they have "dark" and "sinful" hearts, were born that way, and "deserve to die" and "go to hell."
That stinks on church property. It's absolutely appalling on public school property.
For perhaps the first time, this summer Good News Across America will face organized opposition. As volunteers step up preparations for the Portland blitz, a coalition called Protect Portland Children is stepping up outreach to local media, parents, child advocates and school administrators. Protect Portland Children says they mean no disrespect for local churches and volunteers. Rather, they hope to "spread the word that the Good News Club's extreme teachings can be psychologically harmful to children" and that Child Evangelism Fellowship "is now targeting Portland with a major recruiting campaign." "One of our goals is to help the next city they target and to make this a national conversation," says member Kaye Schmitt.
Protect Portland Children points to the investigative expose by journalist Katherine Stewart, author of The Good News Club,. Like Seattle's Lederer, Stewart dug deeper after witnessing Child Evangelism in action at her daughter's school. And they are taking tips from Cernyar, whose website Intrinsic Dignity examines legal precedents related to use of public facilities, providing guidelines and models for parents and administrators who oppose religious bullying in public schools. Despite the Supreme Court ruling, Cernyar urges parents and district administrators to push back: "It is possible for a school district to regulate its forum to protect its students from psychologically and emotionally harmful after-class activities."
I hope that's true.

I am a size 0-2, Small, 26 in Jeans and 8 in Shoes.
I work with various photographers but my favorites are Felicia Lasala and Alexandra Gibbs. I shoot my Instagram photos and vides on a Canon G7x.
I created Damsel in Dior in September 2011.
My #1 piece of advice to people who want to blog is to start a blog. Start writing, compiling images and getting your thoughts down. You can worry about the aesthetic later. The branding and overall idea for a blog is the hardest part. I would also suggest taking a Photoshop class {or Illustrator, InDesign, etc…} to help polish your graphic design skills and invest in a nice{ish} camera. Images are everything and so is having original content. What is original content? An example of "original content" are my "What I Want Wednesday" posts. This is an editorial series I created and design all of the graphics myself. I would also suggest getting connected in social networks such as IFB and attending conferences such as ALT Summit {which I went to starting out}, Create&Cultivate and LuckyFABB. Also, commenting on other blogs and engaging with other bloggers is a great way to network and build friendships inside the blogging community. E-mail blogger friends and ask if they'd be interested in collaborating to help spread the love.
I truly wish I had an easy answer for this one other than this: It wasn't easy and it still isn't easy. I suppose sticking to the formula that you have to treat your blog as a business is helpful. Create an editorial calendar and stick to it so that your readers know what to expect. Engaging with fellow bloggers and making friends definitely helps so that you both promote each other. I also suggest consistency. Be consistent with your content, how often you post, what time of day you post {this goes across the board from blog to all of your social media channels}. Growing your readership takes a lot of time, patience and persistence but if you are dedicated, hard working and create unique and original material, the readers will come.
I use affiliates such as RewardStyle & ShopStyle that provide me with special links to use in my posts. In return, I may receive a small commission {a percentage of the sales}. Not all of the products I post on this blog are linked with affiliate sites and the program 100% positively does NOT affect what I choose to put on the blog. Occasionally, I will work with brands and companies and do a sponsored blog post or fun video, however I will not post about anything that I wouldn't otherwise post about {for free}. I indicate all sponsored stories at the bottom of the post. You can read more about this in my "Policies" section.
I use Yvonne for color and Joseph for cut, both are at MeCHE salon in Beverly Hills, CA. I absolutely hate getting my hair done so, as I'm sure you've noticed, I usually let my roots grow in until it's on the verge of ridiculousness.
I am so very lucky to have something to do every day that I cannot wait to wake up and do. Blogging is a combination of all of my passions: photography, style, computers, graphics and most of all, writing. It's a never ending obsession that I am blessed to be able to call my career. The absolute best part about blogging is when I hear from readers, brands and fellow bloggers, because if it weren't for them, Damsel in Dior would not exist.
The misconception that it's "easy" and having people judge that this is what I treat as my full time job. It's also difficult on days when I just want to go make-up less and throw on a t-shirt and sweats and not have my picture taken…but those days seldom exist. It's a good problem to have. Oh, let's not leave out the fact that I do not love anonymous haters? If you have something to say, say it to my face. I put myself out there 100%. It's the most cowardly act with people sit behind their computers, anonymously spewing hate.
I create all of my graphics within blog posts using Adobe Photoshop. The incredibly amazing and talented team at Exsite in Toronto developed my site.

Life Path Number 4
" Sometimes with people I know, they're playing the hunky action guy and there's resistance to them coming out because it's so connected to straight masculinity. There's a plastic kind of movie star who has a very short shelf with very small kind of ambition. I see that but I still don't agree with it."
Alan Cumming is a Scottish character actor, author, and activist who has appeared in numerous films, television shows and plays, and is best known for his film roles in Emma, GoldenEye, the Spy Kids trilogy, and X2: X-Men United.
He was born on Wednesday January 27th 1965, in Aberfeldy, Perthshire, Scotland.
Alan Cumming is practical, down to earth with strong ideas about right and wrong. He is orderly and organized, systematic and controlled. Decisive and methodical Alan is employing a step by step rational approach to problems solving, and once committed - he does not give up easily!
Cumming is not one for "get rich quick" schemes. Seeking to establish a solid foundation, Alan Cumming would rather use hard work and long hours to build a business or career. Precise, tenacious and persevering, he has great potential for success, but only after putting out effort and overcoming the limitations he so often encounters. Justice and honesty are sacred to Alan. He is reliable and dependable, a cornerstone in the community.
Though not an idealist, Alan Cumming is willing to work for a better world in a realistic way. However, he can be rigid in his ideas and sometimes too quick in judging his fellow man. He is loyal to those he loves and works well with others. It is important that while being part of a team Cumming has his own responsibility and well-defined task; he performs better when his responsibilities are not overlapping with those of others. Alan Cumming has to be careful not to be bossy and rude. He possesses rare discipline and perseverance and not everyone can keep up with him.
Alan can handle money carefully and likes the security of a nest egg.
Cumming's love of work often leads him into a career early in life. Because of his methodical nature Alan can easily become rigid and stuck in convention. He can also be overly cautious when changes are necessary, this can cause him to miss opportunities that present themselves. Alan Cumming must cultivate flexibility in his character. He is well suited for marriage and often becomes a responsible loving parent. However, anything that violates Alan's profound sense of order, such as separation or divorce can be a shattering experience for him. Alan Cumming easily becomes obsessed and even vengeful, seeking his own definition of justice.
Alan is courageous and a true survivor. He is a builder and the foundation of any enterprise. His hard work and practical, traditional values pay off to provide Alan Cumming with the rewards he seeks and deserves.
You and Alan
About Alan's Life Path number
If ever there was a single moment of total transformation, it was actually the moment of Alan Cumming's birth. In that instant, Alan stepped through a door in time into a new reality - the reality of human life.

I am thinking that this is enough of the bones of the piece. I am enjoying this composition with the body back in the scene and the hand and glass coming out at you. Something different.
It always fascinates me how the background base colour impacts the colours I add.
Well we have gotten rid of the shadow across the face, more to the mouth, and added some life.
The nails need to change, while I like that they draw your attention, me thinks it's too much… need to think about what to dow with the background. Feel it needs something, but not to take away with or compete with the character!
Also need to add some texture, mark making drawing on top of the paint.
Here is the finished piece. I think the background adds enough to the composition. The viewer can read it well enough. Have added mark making, more details to the fingers and a fresh manicure! Introducing "For You"

New Report Features for Seall Passage Planner
Maritime software specialist Jargoon announced that its Seall Passage Planner will now include a color coded risk assessment report feature.
The smart e-navigation software is designed to overlay multiple vital data such as AIO or Navarea warnings directly on top of ENCs in order to give a wide range of navigational information to the mariner prior to/during a voyage. In addition, Seall Passage Planner produces a unique color coded risk assessment report.
All risks in the report are identified and highlighted in the geographical order that they occur. This means that the mariner can proceed along the planned course line. The color code gives clearer classification of the various risk types as each color represents a specific hazard. This report can be directly printed off as a hard copy and can be used as a part of the Seall passage planner note book.
"Handling the prepared data correctly is undoubtedly important as it directly links to mariners' safety and the sea environment further. However, the amount of data that the mariner utilizes in each voyage is enormous. Seall Passage Planner not only assists the officer in complying with the regulations optimally by going through built-in checklists but also enhances the risk assessment procedure in order to avoid accidents. We believe that this unique feature of Seall Passage Planner will be a great solution to back of bridge system to complement your ECDIS," said Jargoon's CEO Des Neill.
The following options are available to be listed in the risk report
- VTS(Vessel Traffic System),
- Environmental,
- Nav Warnings
- Mobile drilling Rig

Andrew Deale Quick Money App Software Review – Is It a Scam
What is Quick Money App software?
Quick Money App is a video-oriented internet marketing training and software program by Andrew Deale. With his Quick Money App system and associated software, Andrew claims he is going to how he's able to pull in $1,600 per day on autopilot — by exploiting a market that's 200 times bigger than Google or Facebook combined put together and using affiliate marketing (promoting other people's products or services and making a commission on each sale). He goes on to say that it works for both novice (don't need any experience) and more seasoned marketers, that it works instantly, and that you don't need any money to get started. All you need to do is put in some information, click the mouse 3 times, and the software does everything else for you.
Is Quick Money App software a scam?
Andrew Deale's Quick Money App system and software is a scam. The Quick Money app program is just plain confusing and unfinished. The reason I say this is because it teaches you bits and pieces of internet marketing, but it doesn't teach you a defined business model. In order words, I wasn't sure if I was supposed to be learning. It starts out teaching you how to set up a blog, but they don't teach you how to write content or get traffic. Then, out of nowhere, the guy starts talking about how you can outsource stuff for an e-book like you're going to be selling your own e-book or something – weird. That information is incomplete, too. I was left scratching my head. Beyond that, the "bonus" section and member's area is littered with more crappy up-sells!
My Personal Recommendation
Rather than wasting your money on Andrew Deale's Quick Money App software program — one that will leave you scratching your head and that bombards you with up-sells with the sole purpose of getting your hard-earned money and leaving you nothing to show it for it, I suggest you check out Unstoppable Affiliate by Andrew Hansen and Josh Stanton. It's a comprehensive program (no software) that teaches you a legitimate methodology — from start to finish — for generating real affiliate commissions that will put cash into bank account. More importantly, you're taught by two real marketers with great reputations who provide top-notch support. Click the link below to learn more.

The Baseball Codes: Beanballs, Sign Stealing, and Bench-Clearing Brawls: The Unwritten Rules of America's Pastime (MP3 CD)
Staff Reviews
One of the best insider baseball books I've ever read. Based on interviews with hundreds of players from the last 50 years of baseball, along with great historical anecdotes, The Baseball Codes reveals the unseen game: what offenses cause a pitcher to intentionally hit a batter; what recourse that batter has; what's ok and what's not ok when it comes to stealing signs; how to properly celebrate an accomplishment without earning the ire of the opposing team; what actually constitutes "running up the score"; what is proper decorum for a rookie in the clubhouse. Best of all, the authors are both local, so many of the tales involve the Giants.— kpr
Everyone knows that baseball is a game of intricate regulations, but it turns out to be even more complicated than we realize. What truly governs the Major League game is a set of unwritten rules--some of which are openly discussed, and some of which only a minority of players are aware. In The Baseball Codes, old-timers and all-time greats share their insights into the game's most hallowed and least known traditions. For the learned and the casual baseball fan alike, the result is illuminating and thoroughly entertaining. At the heart of The Baseball Codes are incredible and often hilarious stories. Tales involving national heroes and notorious headhunters--Mickey Mantle, Willie Mays, Bob Gibson, and Don Drysdale, to name a few-- reveal a century-long series of confrontations over respect, honor, and the soul of the game. With The Baseball Codes, we see the game as it is actually played, through the eyes of the players on the field. With rollicking stories from the past and new perspectives on baseball's informal rulebook, this collection of unwritten rules is a must for every baseball fan.

You may have heard the term Beta Carotene in association with healthy foods and benefits. But just what is it and why is it important to include rich sources of Beta Carotene in your everyday diet?
Beta Carotene is a carotenoid found in colorful fruits and vegetables that are common in the American diet. Although typically associated with yellow and orange vegetables, Beta Carotene rich foods can be found in white, red and pink hues as well.
The reason that many healthy diets include foods that are rich in beta carotene is because of the many benefits that it provides.
1. As a provitamin A compound, Beta Carotene, when consumed can be easily converted into retinol, an active form of vitamin A.
2. A powerful antioxidant, Beta Carotene protects the body from cancer-causing free radicals.
3. Strengthens the body's immune system. Eating foods rich in Beta Carotene will keep you from getting sick as easily.
4. Promotes cell regeneration to prevent disease.
5. May help to protect the reproductive system. Though not fully determined, it is believed that Beta Carotene aids in the protection of the female reproduction organs.
Good sources of Beta Carotene include:
Sweet potatoes, Carrots, Squash, Tomatoes, Peaches, Papaya, Mangoes, Bell Peppers, Spinach, Kale, Broccoli, and Turnips
Although no specific disease is linked to a Beta Carotene deficiency, tissue damage as the result of a diet low in Vitamin A can lead to disease. Even if you eat a well balanced diet, there are certain lifestyles that affect Beta Carotene levels, these include:
• Smoking depletes Beta Carotene levels, so if you must smoke, make sure your diet is rich in fruits and vegetables. Vitamin supplements for beta carotene should be taken with caution, and you should consult your physician about the use of beta carotene supplements while smoking.
• Drinking alcohol, especially to excess has been found to cause low beta carotene levels.
• Eating margarine has been found to cause lower levels of beta carotene.
• A diet low in fruits and vegetables. If you don't eat these foods, you will have low levels of Beta Carotene.
• Certain medications lower Beta Carotene levels. Always read medication information and consult your physician if you have any concerns. Be sure to continue your medication as recommended by your doctor.
• Health conditions such as problems with heart, pancreas, liver or bladder.
Many of my recipes include healthy sources of Beta Carotene. If you are interested in trying some of these mouth-watering meals, check out my recipes in the Healthy Cooking category of the Members Only section.

Kim Hyun Joong and Choi once again tried and failed to reach an agreement.
Choi's legal rep argued, "There are four causes for our damages suit: the pregnancy, assault, and miscarriage, which all occurred around May of 2014; [Kim Hyun Joong's] duty to pay the penalty; false charges of fraud and blackmail which were acquitted; and compensation for inflicting emotional distress."
Kim Hyun Joong's legal rep rebutted, "Choi's damages suit is without sound basis. We demand the restoration of 600 million KRW (~ $520,000 USD) for the damages suffered from [Choi's] blackmail. We demand the 600 million KRW as [Choi] divulged [Kim Hyun Joong's] assualt when she had agreed not to. Because he is a celebrity, my client suffered a considerable amount of damage due to articles published in the media."
SEE ALSO: Kim Hyun Joong shows love for his pups on Instagram
Choi's lawyer, upon hearing Kim Hyun Joong's lawyer's argument that everything Choi claims about the pregnancy, assault, and miscarriage are fabricated, stated, "That's an overstatement. It's a shame that [Kim Hyun Joong] is using the X-ray Choi received to disprove her pregnancy. Kim Hyun Joong's lawyer is trying, through numerous press releases and interviews, to subject Choi to national censure. He tells her that he won't 'give her a single penny' even with a major label backing him and even though he will spend millions for a law firm. This serves to destroy Choi's reputation and character."
Kim Hyun Joong's lawyer argued back, "Choi only makes statements on the circumstance and fails to provide any detailed, scientific proof. Because the defendant is celebrity, he only suffers damages the more he appears in the media. We only took part in interviews because we felt pressured by the plaintiff. My client's reputation was directly affected because of the false claims that [Choi] suffered a miscarriage for her second pregnancy from assault and that she lived with him. Further, [Kim Hyun Joong's] private life was infringed upon due to the exposure of text messages between him and the plaintiff."

If you are on the verge of finalizing a home loan, a big dilemma that you might be facing is whether to opt for a floating or a fixed rate of interest. Since a home loan is a long term debt obligation, even a slight difference in the interest rate translates into a big sum of money. Hence it is usually a tough decision to make. You need to understand the fundamental difference between these options and weigh the pros and cons of each before taking a final decision.
What is Fixed Interest Rate?
The fixed interest rate on the home loan remains same for the entire tenure of the loan. It is not affected by market fluctuations. The equal instalments remain constant throughout the loan term. In the early part of the loan tenure a major component of the EMI goes into servicing the interest and the principal is serviced in the later part. These days fixed interest loans are not really fixed for the entire tenure. Banks reserve the right to change the rates after every 5 years or so.
When opting for a fixed rate is a better option?
What is Floating Interest Rate?
Floating home loan interest rate is tied to a base rate and a floating component is added. It is dependent on the market economics. Depending upon whether the base rate is revised upward or downward the floating interest rate is also revised at periodic intervals.
When opting for a floating rate is a better option?
Keep an eye on the macroeconomic indicators like inflation and interest rate movements and monitor the RBI's policy to gain some insight into the future interest rate cycle. Also analyse your personal needs to decide which option suits you the best. Compare the home loan from different institutions and understand the various parameters in detail before making a final choice.

Around 10 billion kilograms of coffee a year is grown, roasted and ground to make over 2 billion cups of coffee every day around the world. That's a lot of coffee, and just as much coffee grounds! What happens to it all?
Community composting systems could be hugely successful for urban market gardens and city farms. Oyster mushrooms are also successfully grown on used coffee grounds - urban mushroom farm, then use it again as mushroom compost.
Coffee grounds are like a slow release fertiliser but they need composting first for the plants to really make use of them. Coffee grounds are high in nitrogen - similar to grass clippings. This makes them a 'green' ingredient in your compost bin to balance high carbon ingredients.
|I add coffee grounds regularly into my worm farm, along with paper, fruit, veg and other biodegradable items. The funnel is Hugh's ingenious idea for harvesting worms - check out our clip about this on https://youtu.be/SU9ezKWec0M

If you have ever had sinus issues, you have felt the difficulties of getting through the winter. When over-the-counter medications fail in treating sinus issues, many people turn to home remedies. Today, we are sharing a lesser known method: the Lymphatic Drainage Self Massage!
So what is a lymphatic massage? According to the Mayo Clinic, it is a massage method that encourages the "flow of lymph fluid" throughout our lymphatic system.
According to licensed massage therapist Heather Wibbles, if applied properly, it only takes several minutes of gently applied pressure on the right spots to ease your sinus issues.
Source:MassageByHeather.com – Heather Wibbels, LMT
Disclaimer: do not perform lymphatic massage if you are demonstrating one of the following symptoms:
- Fever, acute infection, early onset of inflammatory disease
- Circulatory system problems, especially thrombosis
- Cardiac issues such as heart disease, acute angina pectoris or coronary thrombosis
- Active bleeding, internal or external
- Active malignant cancers, undiagnosed lumps, or tumors whose origins have not been determined by your physician
- High-risk pregnancy or late term pregnancy with complications
If you don't have any of these symptoms, you are good to go. Keep in mind, though, that the lymphatic drainage massage does not require any strength. Heather compares the pressure you need to use to the pressure level you would use to roll a coin across a tabletop. In other words: don't press too hard!
You'll be focusing on four areas to clear your sinuses, all four are spots where fluids settle close to the skin: your head, your neck, around your ears, and the back of your neck.
1. Find the Venus angle
Take your ring finger on each hand, and place them on each side of your collarbone, one on either side of the notch in your throat at the center of your collarbone. Then slide your hands up over the collar bone to the soft tissue of your neck. Lightly and slowly start to pump, with one pump every one to two seconds, or slower. Do 50 to 100 pumps, and you'll start to feel the fluids move. You may feel like you need to clear your throat; that's totally normal!
2. Move to the side of your neck
Place the top parts of your palms on either side of your neck, and use the surface of your palms and fingers to pull straight down, along the big muscle in your neck. Repeat about 50 times. You'll start to feel the fluid beginning to drain from your ears!

3. Move to the back of your neck
Cup your hands together, again using the top part of your palm and fingers. Place your cupped hands on the back of your neck, and again pull downwards about 50 times.
4. Finish up
Put your hands into the Star Trek "Live long and prosper" salute— i.e. in a V-shape, with your pointer and middle finger forming one side, and your ring and pinky finger forming the other side. Put your ears in the bottom of each V, between the middle and ring fingers. Pull downward toward the bottom of your cheek, about 50 times.
5. Repeat the massages in reverse order: back of the neck, side of the neck, and finishing near your collarbone at the Venus angle
Check out the video for the full demonstration by massage professional Heather Wibbels.

For those of you who don't have the time for a full massage daily, there is a quicker routine recommended by massage therapist Amber Lynn Vitale. Here are the steps:
1. Start at your eyebrows. Push up under the brow bone with your fingers or thumbs while sitting at a table, leaning forward to apply pressure.
2. Move to the middle of and slightly above your eyebrow. Apply pressure to the little divot there as long as needed.
3. Move to the far edge of your eyebrows. Do not go out as far as your temple, but find the slight indentation before it. Press and hold, or move your fingers in small circles.
4. Move to the top of your nostrils on the sides of your nose. This spot should be where your cheekbone meets your nasal bone. Press, again while sitting at a table and leaning forward on your elbows.
5. Move slightly down, below your nostrils now, to another indentation, and then out to the middle of your cheekbone. Press up.
Follow the in-depth instructions in the video below.

So you want to start your own design company. Whether you are on the brink of garment greatness or in search of ways to turn your small idea into a grand one, design guru jeffstaple of Staple Design is here to offer guidance on all of your clothing brand needs through his Skillshare project A Staple of Branding: How to Start Your Fashion Company, which kicks off today.
We caught up with the Staple Design founder to get his top three tips for launching a successful line and to find out what he's looking for when choosing the three finalists for an exclusive one-on-one workshop at the Staple studio in New York.
Read his gems below:
1. Originality
"There are a lot of clothing lines out there and a lot of brands. How are you able to bring something that is different and unique to the fold? The first way you have to do that is you have to be a student of the game. You don't know what's new unless you know what's out there. If it comes from you specifically it is going to automatically be original."
2. Authenticity
"Be true to yourself. Just because you have surveyed the entire world of fashion and figured out that there is this one thing that no one is doing, it doesn't mean you should do it. There might be a reason no one is doing that. If you are able to balance what you are passionately into and what is different with what's out there, then you've got something. But don't just think, 'Oh, no one's doing gothic cathedral leather with neon stripes.' No one is going to buy that."
3. Scalability
"Does your brand have the ability to go beyond one T-shirt or six T-shirts? Can it become a collection? Can Vogue write an article about your brand and put it on the cover and make it scale? If the Barneys buyer walks in, can they make a purchase that they can represent in a store? Can different age groups and different demographics wear your brand? It's really easy to create a hot T-shirt line that everyone is talking about for three months. But how do you do it for ten years? That intention has to start from the very beginning. Can I scale this company? Can I scale this idea?"

Open-Source Learning Management with Moodle
Moodle comes with 15 themes that change the look of a Moodle Web site, and you can switch themes directly from the Configuration panel. It's easy to create new themes, too. Each theme is contained in a subdirectory of the main theme directory. To create a custom theme, copy one of the existing theme folders and give it a new name. The folder for each theme contains certain standard files, such as config.php and styles.php. The easiest way to change the look of the theme is to tweak the file styles.php, which modifies the Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) used for that theme. Want to add a logo at the top of the page? Customize header.html. Any new subdirectory in the main theme folder automatically appears in the Configuration panel for themes. No special installation step is required.
Moodle's world-wide popularity—1,900 registered sites from 90 countries at last count—could be attributed to the fact that it is available in 40 different languages, from Afrikaans to Turkish. Similar to the plugin arrangement for themes, each language pack is a subdirectory in the lang directory. Switching languages is done easily through the Web control panel for languages. But, Moodle takes flexibility a step further by making it possible for an administrator to change all the phrases used in a language pack. For example, if you want to change the word "courses" to "classes" throughout the Moodle site, it can be changed once in the language pack. The terms in the language pack can be edited directly from the Web-based configuration panel.
The standard package of Moodle comes with over 15 modules for various activities, such as discussion forums, chats, assignments, journals, quizzes and surveys. Additional optional modules are available on the Moodle Web site. Installing a module usually involves copying the module's files into a subdirectory under the mod directory. Some modules come with related language files that need to be copied over to the appropriate subdirectory under the lang directory, depending on which language pack you are using. Using the configuration panel, it is possible to delete a module or change its default settings.
The Web control panel also allows the administrator to set up automated backups. Options control what is archived in the backup file and when. For example, you can omit large log files from being included in the backup. Teachers can make backups of courses, too. A backup without user data can be used to set up a course for the next semester. The backup file is in XML format, meaning your data is never locked in a proprietary format and you maintain control over your own data.
The Moodle Developers Manual lays out the development goals of the project:
Moodle should run on the widest variety of platforms.
Moodle should be easy to install, learn and modify.
It should be easy to upgrade from one version to the next.
It should be modular to allow for growth.
It should be able to be used in conjunction with other systems.
In our experience, the Moodle project has managed to stay true to these objectives even as it evolves rapidly. The quick pace of development is apparent in the frequent releases. For example, Moodle users had expressed interest in an integrated calendar, a feature that Moodle lacked. In January 2004, Moodle users and developers started discussing what calendaring features were needed and how they should be implemented. A few months later, the May 2004 release included an integrated calendar.
An often-repeated criticism of open-source software is it is only for IT experts and is too difficult for basic users to install and use. Yet, over 66% of Moodle users who responded to a Moodle survey identified themselves as teachers, on-line learning researchers or educational administrators.
Managing an LMS can be a complex task. What we like about Moodle is it does not hide this complexity. Its detailed on-line help, examples and sensible defaults assist the user in installing, administering and using the LMS. The greatest strength of Moodle is the community that has grown around the project. Both developers and users participate in Moodle's active discussion forums, sharing tips, posting code snippets, helping new users, sharing resources and debating new ideas. Moodle's low cost, flexibility and ease of use helps bring LMS technology within the reach of those with limited technical and financial resources. Moodle is a fine example of how and why open source works.

FSBO (For Sale By Owner) sellers cannot negotiate the best sales deal because of the following reasons:
- Most sellers, being emotionally attached to their house, consider the value of their home as being much higher than it really is. This usually results in either no sale at all or a sale for much below market value, and neither option is good for the seller.
- Without the education and experience of a Realtor, most sellers are not familiar with the "big picture" of the real estate market and its values. This is a skill that is exercised through daily exposure to the market and it only gets better with time.
- Sellers are not attune to buyers and do not know or understand their wants or needs. This is due to the fact that buyers do not feel comfortable speaking frankly about the home in front of the seller or the seller is not realistic regarding what the buyer may be looking for. Sometimes sellers do not know how to be objective and put themselves in the shoes of the buyers. For example, just because the home had enough room for their two kids doesn't mean that the buyer would have enough room for their two kids. Everyone leads a different life!
- FSBO sellers must negotiate personally with the buyers, getting involved on an emotional level, rather than treating the home sale as a business transaction.
- Sellers are inexperienced in solving complex requirements for mortgage lending procedures or solving glitches, such as low appraisals.
- The sellers who personally accept deposits may spend the funds, rather than securing with a neutral party. No accountability can be dangerous!
- FSBO sellers are at high risk of lawsuits because they are not familiar with legal forms, real estate laws, and requirements, nor do they understand the seriousness of what could take place if they do not dot all of their I's and cross all of their T's.
A word to the wise...
