A powerful coastal storm with strong winds and heavy rain will impact the East Coast beginning later this weekend, potentially resulting in tree damage, power outages and flooding. A significant wind event is possible Sunday or Monday according to the National Weather Service. One of the ingredients for this coastal storm is a powerful jet stream disturbance sweeping through the eastern states this weekend that
will help induce the formation of a strong low-pressure system near or off the mid-Atlantic and Northeast coastline. This storm system will also receive an injection of moisture and energy from Tropical Depression Eighteen in the western Caribbean. The National Weather Service office in Boston noted in its Saturday morning discussion that this is an unusual and truly strong, potentially dangerous storm system for late October. READ MORE

The Dowsing Divining RadiesthesiaDowsing - Divining Radiesthesia can be a phrase, which was coined in 1920 by the French abbot Alexis Bouly and it originates from the Latin phrase "Radius" (ray) and with the Greek term " Aisthesis" (sensation).
The diviner is the person, who can perception, via a pendulum, biotensor or dowsing rod, the vibrations of impulses and also the radiations emitted from items, men and women, animals, grounds, and the like……
In historic times the word Dowsing was employed only for the research of springs of h2o or metals as gold. Then The person realised that the radiations had been emitted, not just by drinking water and metals, and also by Just about every method of life.
Then individuals realised that, this resonance among the inorganic content plus the intellect of person, could have been extensible to any field. Right here The main reason for selecting the phrase Divining as definition to point the review with the waves and vibrations, which have been emitted from each element.
THE DIVINING/DOWSING SO Will be the Research For your Lookup OF WAVES AND VIBRATIONS, Which can be EMITTED FROM Every single Factor.
As earlier mentioned-claimed, the leading divining Doing the job applications, which the diviner can use for virtually any look for, are pendulums product of crystal, Wooden or metallic, biotensor, and dowsing rods. They are really made use of as assistance to detect the vibrations and radiations emitted from Each individual element and person.
We will see that the Divining has got a multiplicity of uses.
The divining phenomena have in fact an explanation vendre sa voiture à une casse of the Actual physical get: Just about every matter, with the dwelling persons to your inorganic substance, emits radiations, each on diverse wavelengths.
Then the diviner, by means of his divining faculties (They will be created by divining graphics as well as by some specific tactics as we are going to see During this distribution), will be able to perception these wavelengths or normal radiations to discover the presence of what he is looking for: illnesses inside of somebody, the medication, therapy or the more appropriate therapeutic method for the treatment of an ailment and for that holistic care, water, gold, disappeared things, any analysis on fields, autos, Aside from to devise Energetic radionics types for every vibrational use.
So it can be done to try and do take a look at and prognosis on:
physic issues for any issue, Any mechanical motor For almost any installation, To locate missing points, man or woman animals, Alimentary intolerance for folks, animals, To test any therapies for virtually any sorts of curative technique for individual, plants, animals, Any geopatia inside of an properties and ground, The look for of h2o wells, petroleum, minerals, depth of the ground, Archaeological and Historical lookups, How to rearrange and to orient matters and household furniture within houses, places of work, for generating the space healthy inside of a vibrational way, etc, To test the balanced colors for whitewashing walls of residences, places of work, and so forth, To check which crops are more suitable for gardens, residences, offices, rooms in general, To check the more sensible choice for any arguments, the abilities as well as the Expert handle, of Business office, of home extra ideal, the sport vendre sa voiture à un particulier observe, spiritual self-discipline, To test and job the better geometric sorts for creating a wholesome household... at the tip everything which regards your concrete possibilities for your "existing" on the whole, remembering always with the moral procedures which have been expanded in this distribution devoid of creating While using the time a kind of dependence, if you Earlier have obtained smaller outcomes.

Visiting Scholar Diane Favro to lecture Feb. 29
calendar icon24 Feb 2016Lincoln, Neb.--Diane Favro will present the next lecture of the Hixson-Lied Visiting Artists & Scholars Lecture Series on Monday, Feb. 29 at 7:30 p.m. in Richards Hall Rm. 15 on the University of Nebraska–Lincoln city campus. The lecture is free and open to the public.
Her lecture on Roman archaeology, titled "Marble Parades: Celebrating Materiality in Augustan Rome" is sponsored by the Hixson-Lied Endowment, Department of Art and Art History and the Lincoln-Omaha Society of the Archaeological Institute of America. She will discuss how the Emperor Augustus celebrated the architectural transformation of Rome by means of celebratory parades.
The Roman emperor Augustus boasted he transformed Rome from a city of brick to one of marble. Cut into crisply fitted ashlar blocks and sparkling monolithic columns, this heavy, expensive stone conveyed strength, endurance, economic success and cultural sophistication. Yet it wasn't just the medium that was the message. Emulating the paths and audience attraction of Roman Triumphal processions, the lengthy parades transporting huge stones to building sites in Rome reinforced a calculated propaganda.
Favro is Professor of Architecture and Urban Design and Associate Dean of the UCLA School of Arts and Architecture. Her research explores the urbanism of ancient Rome, archaeological historiography, women in architecture and new technologies in humanistic research.
She has written on subjects ranging from Armenian architectural symbolism to urban armatures in Roman Asia Minor and depictions of women architects in American advertising. A new major work is Roman Architecture and Urbanism (Cambridge University Press) co-authored with Fikret Yegül.
As a founder of the UCLA CVRLab and the UCLA Experiential Technologies Center, Favro was an early adopter of 3-D, real-time digital modeling for historical research, receiving large grants (NEH, NSF, Intel) for such pioneering, award-winning projects as the Digital Roman Forum and Digital Karnak. She was President of the national Society of Architectural Historians (2002-04) and a Resident at the American Academy in Rome (2014).
Her current work applies the techniques of procedural modeling and BIM (Building Information Modeling) to the interrogation of historical buildings and urban environments.
The Hixson-Lied Visiting Artists & Scholars Lecture Series is underwritten by the Hixson-Lied Endowment, with additional support from other sources. The program brings notable artists, scholars and designers to UNL's Department of Art and Art History, enhancing the education of students and enriching the culture of the state by providing a way for Nebraskans to interact with luminaries in the fields of art, art history and design.
Richards Hall is located at Stadium Drive and T sts. For more information, contact the Department of Art and Art History at (402) 472-5522.

WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) — Elizabeth Warren is no threat to Hillary Clinton in 2016, says Democratic strategist David Axelrod.
Axelrod told conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt on Wednesday: "I don't think [Warren] would beat [Clinton] … Hillary is probably as well-positioned within her own party as any open-seat candidate has been in our lifetime." Clinton has not declared her intention to run for the Democratic nomination for president in 2016 but is widely expected to run. And Warren, a Democratic senator from Massachusetts, has said she has no interest in running. But as the Huffington Post notes, Warren's statements haven't stopped grassroots activists from trying to persuade her to challenge Clinton.
Run, Warren, run: Warren may insist she's not running, but the progressive alliance working to draft her into the 2016 race for the White House says 79% of early-primary Democratic voters want her to. USA Today reports on a poll of 800 likely Democratic caucus goers and primary voters in Iowa and New Hampshire that shows support for Warren's economic positions. For example, 97% agree with the senator's desire to cut student-loan rates, and 84% agree with her objections to the Trans-Pacific Partnership. The online survey by YouGov was sponsored by MoveOn.org and Democracy for America, which have offices in Iowa and New Hampshire working to build support for a Warren candidacy.
Amash's 'no' on Keystone: Just one House Republican voted "no" on Wednesday on a bill that would approve construction of the Keystone XL oil pipeline: Justin Amash of Michigan. The bill was sent to the White House after passing the House and is expected to be vetoed by President Obama. Amash's problem with the bill, as the New Republic writes: that Congress shouldn't exempt a single corporation from the usual regulations and review steps that apply to private projects. Here is the congressman on the subject:
#KXL bill combines cronyism—exempting one company from laws—w/ new sections empowering EPA & fed gov on local energy efficiency. I voted no.— Justin Amash (@justinamash) February 11, 2015
Food-stamp fight: The Wall Street Journal writes that House Republicans are laying the groundwork for a revision of the food-stamp program, after its sharp expansion during the recession. The effort will kick off on Feb. 25, when the House Agriculture Committee holds the first of several hearings scheduled this year on food stamps, formally known as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. Committee Chairman Mike Conaway, a Texas Republican, said it is too early to talk about specific changes. But critics, according to the Journal, cite a need for tighter eligibility requirements.
New attack on IRS: Congressional Republicans have a new line of attack on the Internal Revenue Service. On Wednesday, they accused the agency of seizing the assets of innocent small businesses, charges that added to a steady stream of criticism of the tax agency and its leadership. Lawmakers made the assertions during a hearing before a House Ways and Means subcommittee, reports the Hill. IRS Commissioner John Koskinen said he would apologize to anyone who was not treated fairly. But he said the agency isn't solely responsible for determining which businesses to bring cases against. It takes a U.S. attorney and a federal judge to find probable cause, he said.

Turn the fresh flavors of a Greek salad into a warm dish for cold winter nights. I like to make a large batch, freeze them, then simply drop them into simmering water for dinner in about five minutes! —Carla Mendres, Winnipeg, Manitoba
Total TimePrep: 45 min. Cook: 5 min./batch
Makes4 dozen
- 10 ounces (about 12 cups) fresh baby spinach
- 1/2 cup finely chopped roasted sweet red peppers

- 2 to 3 teaspoons dried oregano
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour

My Review
Mar 26, 2017
The taste of these was delicious! We served them drizzled lightly with olive oil and that worked well. Mine did have a minor problem with sticking in the pan a bit when I cooked them, and I didn't have enough filling for all 48 ravioli. In retrospect I may have gone with too generous of tablespoonfuls and I'll go for a more scant filling in the future.

Polish leader sparks outcry with 'benevolent masters' claim
- Image 1 of 2
- Image 2 of 2
WARSAW, Poland – The leader of Poland's ruling party is facing accusations that he used offensive and divisive language when he said that members of his ruling party are "benevolent masters."
Jaroslaw Kaczynski made his comments Wednesday as he argued in parliament that his ruling Law and Justice party has behaved better during its time in power than the previous governing party, Civic Platform.
He said: "We are benevolent masters because we are masters, unlike some others."
The language evoked a time when Polish society was divided between serfs and their masters, or lords.
Civic Platform leader Grzegorz Schetyna said Kaczynski's words carried the "worst historical connections," implying notions of "a nation of masters and a master race."

Impatient Russian driver tries and fails to jump off ferry
An impatient Russian driver who wanted to be the first one off a ferry has crashed into the water after trying to jump his car to shore.
Instead of waiting the 20 seconds it would have taken for a ferry to dock in Crimea, the driver reportedly announced to fellow passengers he would be first off the ship before accelerating over the ramp.
Video taken on September 16 shows the car race over the edge of the safety barrier before plumping into the water below.
Apart from a bruised ego, the driver suffered only minor injuries.

First published in French in 1808 and translated into English two years later under the title An Enquiry Concerning the Intellectual and Moral Faculties, and Literature of the Negroes, this book was a touchstone for nineteenth-century abolitionists in England and the United States. Written by Abbe Henri Gregoire (1750-1831), it argued vigorously against assumptions of black inferiority and in favor of the humanity, equality, and cultural achievements of people of African heritage. His treatise summarized most of the available written thought on race up to that time. A leading activist in the French Revolution, Gregoire reflected in his arguments the spirit of "libertie, egalite, and fraternite" and anticipated twentieth-century race inquiry and theory. Although influential in its time, the first translation of Gregoire's work was incomplete and flawed. This new edition presents a fresh, accurate, and complete text of this key document in the history of Western racial thought. The book includes a substantial biography of Gregoire and analysis of the historical context in which he wrote and the impact of his work.

About the Author
Professor emeritus of French at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, Thomas Cassirer is coeditor of Ousmane Sembene: Dialogues with Critics and Writers (University of Massachusetts Press, 1993). Jean Fracois Briere is associate professor in the Department of French Studies at SUNY, Albany. his most recent book is Les Francais (Prentice-Hall, 1995).
What People are Saying About This
This book is of extraordinary importance and deserves even more attention than it has received from historians of racial thought and of Anglo-American abolitionism. Gregoire presents answers to most of the arguments for innate racial inferiority, even those usually associated with a later period, and also transmits doctrines and beliefs that would later be taken up by black nationalists and Afrocentrists. This new, authoritative translation will be of great use to scholars in a variety of fields and will be eminently suitable for classroom use.

We went on a little walk behind our house to see if we could find any butterflies. Sadly we didn't find any but the little one found many other interesting things to play with. She is so all girl but loves sticks and rocks and bugs and to play outdoors. The cap is a favorite because, as she said to me the other day, girls can love caps too, not only boys!

Disaster and Vulnerability
On the positive side, there are the people working to improve the lives of those around them, people working in organisations, often small and under funded organisations, also some people working on their own. There are so many ideas and initiatives and some people have the motivation to put them into effect and the determination to keep at it. And this despite the fact that much needed support can be a long time coming.
On the negative side, I have heard of politicians, police and others in positions of power abusing their positions. The results are all around us, millions starving, millions with curable diseases, millions more facing starvation and disease; and a handful of very rich people in big cars who appear on TV every evening to promise to make everything better and to blame something or someone else, lest anyone think they may have been responsible.
A recent haunting image on TV was that of a child scraping the remains of ugali off a big pot and eating it. There is a shortage of food in some areas, partly blamed on the post election violence, climate irregularities and various other things. But it has been known for a long time that famine is not just due to a shortage of food. Some of the food imported to alleviate the shortage just disappeared; some farmers are holding on to their stocks because the shortage of food may well continue, etc. This has all been building up and, like all disasters, it has multiple causes.
But one of the most awful things I have seen, perhaps in my whole life, is the film of the Molo fire, taken by someone on their mobile phone. In fact, it was less a matter of what you could see in the film and more a matter of what you could hear: people screaming and shouting, close by and far away. There were harrowing accounts in newspapers of the things people did to alleviate their suffering. I was so moved by them that the sight of a dead body (killed in a road traffic accident, yesterday) lying on the side of the road had little impact. It only made me think of the blackened bundles that marked the place where some people burned beyond recognition near Molo.
Incidentally, Molo is one of the places that suffered very badly during the post election violence of last year. If you drive through Molo Junction, you will see many charred remains of houses and premises and blackened squares and rectangles that were once buildings. There are still rows of tents nearby to house some of the many people displaced in the violence. But areas scarred by multiple problems are not rare, they are the norm. They are the areas where the most vulnerable people live.
One politician, George Saitoti, Minister for Internal Security, said publicly that the people who got burned had learned a lesson. Lucy Kibaki, the wife of the president, asked how people could have learned a lesson if they are dead. But another question is, who most needed to learn a lesson? The government is aware of the problems with the country's roads and emergency services, in particular. This is not the first disaster caused by such neglect, nor is it the first time that the ability to react to disaster was hampered for the same reasons.
The remark reminds me of a woman interviewed a few months ago because she had written a book about HIV with a provocative title, The Wisdom of Whores. She concluded that there are serious HIV epidemics in some countries because some people do stupid things. But she's wrong; people in all countries do inadvisable and risky things.
It's risky to have unprotected sex with someone you don't know, even with someone you do know. And it's risky to siphon petrol from a crashed tanker. But many people know they are taking risks, so it's pointless to tell them, especially if you don't offer them an alternative. If you need money, you will consider even the riskiest ways of getting it and the same may go for any other opportunity that arises.
In Kenya there currently crises (and scandals) relating to food, water, fuel, energy, health and many other things. But none of them are new. There have been warnings about all these issues for decades. Fires like the ones in Nakumatt and Molo and the lack of resilience that followed them can be traced to cutbacks at least as long ago as the 1980s, before many of the people who died were even born. The country's health problems relate to similar cutbacks.
In contrast, all the politicians and many other powerful people around today were also around in the 1980s. It is they who should have learned lessons. Perhaps they, including George Saitoti, didn't learn lessons because they are not the ones who have suffered any of the painful consequences?
Saitoti shouldn't be sacked because he could have prevented those two terrible incidents of last week but because he and his colleagues have spent several decades refusing to put in place the conditions under which accidents like that do not happen. He and his colleagues have failed to improve access to health, education, infrastructure and other social benefits and thus created a population of highly vulnerable people.

Your post clearly is NOT about HIV, hence my comment... Watching Kenyan politics is like watching kids at play--they argue and argue and in the end resolve nothing. You have a bunch of "corruptocrats"--as they've been tagged by an American right-wing columnist--ruining a once-promising nation, and yet those of us outside government who have ideas about how to do things better are unable to do anything about it. "Vote out the scoundrels," someone might shout, but as we saw last year, elections don't work either.

You're right, it's not about HIV. But HIV is importantly related to other surrounding circumstances, such as gender relations, economics, politics, education, health, infrastructure and many other things. You could say that HIV is not just about HIV, really.
As for ruining a once promising nation, US policy towards Kenya is based on Kenya's long time support of the US during the cold war and the present 'war on terror'. Sadly, Kenyan politicians are very well connected.

Siacoin Mining 9800gt – The Affluence Network: Everybody Wins
We would like to thank you for coming to our site in looking for "Siacoin Mining 9800gt" online. Bitcoin is the main cryptocurrency of the net: a digital money standard by which all other coins are compared to. Cryptocurrencies are distributed, global, and decentralized. Unlike conventional fiat currencies, there is no authorities, banks, or any regulatory agencies. Therefore, it really is more immune to crazy inflation and corrupt banks. The advantages of using cryptocurrencies as your method of transacting cash online outweigh the protection and privacy risks. Security and seclusion can easily be reached by just being bright, and following some basic guidelines. You wouldn't put your whole bank ledger online for the word to see, but my nature, your cryptocurrency ledger is publicized. This can be fixed by removing any identity of possession from the wallets and thereby keeping you anonymous. Just a fraction of bitcoins issued so far are available on the exchange markets. Bitcoin markets are competitive, which means the price a bitcoin will rise or fall depending on supply and demand. Many people hoard them for long term savings and investment. This restricts the number of bitcoins that are actually circulating in the exchanges. Moreover, new bitcoins will continue to be issued for decades to come. Hence, even the most diligent buyer couldn't purchase all present bitcoins. This scenario is just not to suggest that markets will not be vulnerable to price manipulation, yet there is no requirement for big amounts of money to move market prices up or down. The smallest occasions on the planet market can affect the price of Bitcoin, This can make Bitcoin and any other cryptocurrency volatile. This mining action validates and records the transactions across the whole network. So if you are trying to do something prohibited, it isn't wise because everything is recorded in the public register for the rest of the world to see eternally. Since one of the earliest forms of earning money is in cash lending, it is a fact you could do that with cryptocurrency. Most of the giving websites currently focus on Bitcoin, many of these websites you happen to be demanded fill in a captcha after a specific period of time and are rewarded with a small quantity of coins for seeing them. It is possible to visit the www.cryptofunds.co site to locate some lists of of these websites to tap into the currency of your choice. Unlike forex, stocks and options, etc., altcoin markets have very different dynamics. New ones are constantly popping up which means they do not have a lot of market data and historical view for you to backtest against. Most altcoins have somewhat inferior liquidity as well and it is hard to come up with a reasonable investment strategy. Cryptocurrency is freeing individuals to transact money and do business on their terms. Each user can send and receive payments in an identical way, but they also be a part of more sophisticated smart contracts. Multiple signatures enable a transaction to be supported by the network, but where a particular number of a defined group of people consent to sign the deal, blockchain technology makes this possible. This enables advanced dispute arbitration services to be developed in the foreseeable future. These services could enable a third party to approve or reject a transaction in the event of disagreement between the other parties without checking their money. Unlike cash and other payment systems, the blockchain consistently leaves public evidence a transaction occurred. This can be potentially used within an appeal against businesses with deceptive practices.
Siacoin Mining 9800gt – How to Secure Your Retirement: The Affluence Network
Mining cryptocurrencies is how new coins are placed into circulation. Because there is no government control and crypto coins are digital, they cannot be printed or minted to create more. The mining process is what creates more of the coin. It may be useful to think about the mining as joining a lottery group, the pros and cons are just the same. Mining crypto coins means you will get to keep the total benefits of your efforts, but this reduces your chances of being successful. Instead, joining a pool means that, overall, members will have a much higher potential for solving a block, but the benefit will be divided between all members of the pool, predicated on the amount of "shares" won.
If you are thinking of going it alone, it's worth noting the software configuration for solo mining can be more complex than with a pool, and beginners would be likely better take the latter path. This option also creates a steady stream of earnings, even if each payment is small compared to totally block the benefit. In the case of the fully functioning cryptocurrency, it may even be dealt as being a thing. Proponents of cryptocurrencies announce this sort of personal income is not handled by way of a central banking system and is not thus susceptible to the whims of its inflation. Because there are a minimal number of items, this coinis benefit is founded on market forces, permitting homeowners to business over cryptocurrency exchanges. The sweetness of the cryptocurrencies is the fact that fraud was proved an impossibility: due to the nature of the process in which it is transacted. All purchases on the crypto-currency blockchain are permanent. After youare paid, you get paid. This isn't anything short-term where your customers can challenge or desire a discounts, or employ dishonest sleight of hand. In practice, most professionals will be a good idea to make use of a transaction processor, due to the permanent nature of crypto-currency dealings, you have to make sure that security is challenging. With any form of crypto-currency may it be a bitcoin, ether, litecoin, or the numerous other altcoins, thieves and hackers may potentially access your personal recommendations and so grab your money. Sadly, you probably can never get it back. It's quite crucial for you really to adopt some excellent secure and safe procedures when coping with any cryptocurrency. Doing so may guard you from all of these damaging events. Cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, LiteCoin, Ether, The Affluence Network, and many others have already been designed as a non-fiat currency. In other words, its backers assert that there's "real" worth, even through there is absolutely no physical representation of that worth. The worth rises due to computing power, that's, is the only way to create new coins distributed by allocating CPU electricity via computer programs called miners. Miners create a block after a period of time which is worth an ever decreasing amount of currency or some kind of reward so that you can ensure the shortfall. Each coin consists of many smaller units. For Bitcoin, each unit is called a satoshi. Operations that take place during mining are just to authenticate other trades, such that both creates and authenticates itself, a simple and elegant alternative, which can be among the appealing aspects of the coin. The individual who has mined the coin holds the address, and transfers it into a value is provided by another address, which is a "wallet" file saved on a computer. The blockchain is where the public record of trades dwells.
The fact that there's little evidence of any increase in using virtual money as a currency may be the reason there are minimal attempts to control it. The reason for this could be merely that the market is too small for cryptocurrencies to warrant any regulatory effort. It's also possible the regulators simply do not comprehend the technology and its implications, awaiting any developments to act. Here is the trendiest thing about cryptocurrencies; they don't physically exist anywhere, not even on a hard drive. When you take a look at a particular address for a wallet featuring a cryptocurrency, there is no digital information held in it, like in the exact same manner a bank could hold dollars in a bank account. It's only a representation of worth, but there isn't any actual tangible form of that worth. Cryptocurrency wallets may not be seized or immobilized or audited by the banks and the law. They would not have spending limits and withdrawal restrictions imposed on them. No one but the owner of the crypto wallet can decide how their wealth will be managed. When searching on the internet forSiacoin Mining 9800gt, there are many things to consider.

Siacoin Mining 9800gt: Everybody Wins: The Affluence Network
The physical Internet backbone that carries information between the various nodes of the network has become the work of several companies called Internet service providers (ISPs), including companies that provide long-distance pipelines, occasionally at the international level, regional local conduit, which ultimately links in families and businesses. The physical connection to the Internet can only happen through one of these ISPs, players like amount 3, Cogent, and IBM AT&T. Each ISP operates its own network. Internet service providers Exchange IXPs, owned or private companies, and occasionally by Governments, make for each of these networks to be interconnected or to transfer messages across the network. Many ISPs have agreements with suppliers of physical Internet backbone providers to offer Internet service over their networks for "last mile"-consumers and businesses who need to get Internet connectivity. Internet protocols, followed by everyone in the network causes it to be possible for the information to stream without interruption, in the appropriate place at the right time.
While none of these organizations "owns" the Internet collectively these companies decide how it functions, and established rules and standards that everyone stays. Contracts and legal framework that underlies all that's happening to determine how things work and what happens if something bad happens. To get a domain name, for instance, one needs permission from a Registrar, which has a contract with ICANN. To connect to the Internet, your ISP must be physical contracts with providers of Internet backbone services, and suppliers have contracts with IXPs from the Internet backbone to attach to and with her. Concern over security problems? A working group is formed to work with the problem and the alternative developed and deployed is in the interest of all parties. If the Internet is down, you have someone to phone to get it repaired. If the difficulty is from your ISP, they in turn have contracts set up and service level agreements, which regulate the manner in which these problems are resolved.
The benefit of cryptocurrency is that it uses blockchain technology. The network of nodes the make up the blockchain isn't regulated by any centered company. No one can tell the miners to upgrade, speed up, slow down, stop or do anything. And that's something that as a devoted supporter badge of honour, and is identical to the way the Internet functions. But as you understand now, public Internet governance, normalities and rules that regulate how it works present built-in difficulties to an individual. Blockchain technology has none of that. For most users of cryptocurrencies it is not crucial to understand how the process works in and of itself, but it's basically crucial that you understand that there's a procedure for mining to create virtual currency. Unlike currencies as we know them today where Governments and banks can only choose to print endless numbers (I am not saying they are doing so, only one point), cryptocurrencies to be managed by users using a mining program, which solves the advanced algorithms to release blocks of currencies that can enter into circulation. You have probably seen this often where you typically spread the nice word about crypto. "It is not unstable? What goes on when the price crashes? " to date, many POS programs offers free transformation of fiat, improving some problem, but before volatility cryptocurrencies is addressed, a lot of people is likely to be unwilling to keep any. We need to find a way to fight the volatility that is inherent in cryptocurrencies. Ethereum is an incredible cryptocurrency platform, however, if growth is too fast, there may be some issues. If the platform is adopted fast, Ethereum requests could increase dramatically, and at a rate that exceeds the rate with which the miners can create new coins. Under a situation like this, the whole stage of Ethereum could become destabilized due to the increasing costs of running distributed applications. In turn, this could dampen interest Ethereum stage and ether. Instability of demand for ether may result in a negative change in the economic parameters of an Ethereum based company that could result in company being unable to continue to run or to stop operation. Lots of people would rather use a money deflation, particularly those who need to save. Despite the criticism and skepticism, a cryptocurrency coin may be better suited for some uses than others. Monetary solitude, for example, is excellent for political activists, but more debatable as it pertains to political campaign funding. We need a steady cryptocurrency for use in trade; in case you are living paycheck to paycheck, it would happen within your riches, with the rest earmarked for other currencies.

I'd like to believe that everyone has a list of guilty pleasure songs that would be very embarrassing if your iPod randomly shuffles to. For me, it's the musicals. I'm definitely not a die hard "New York Musical" collector, but I do have a fair amount of musical albums. Whenever one of the songs pop up on my shuffle, I usually shamefully skip past it; as if the person next to me might be able to hear the jaunty tune slipping out from my headphones.
Sometimes I throw caution to the wind and quietly revel in the random musical ditty, enjoying the fact that no one knows what I am listening to.
There are moments however when a particular musical theatre masterpiece will come on and I will proudly blast it (in my headphones), pitying the people around me who can't match this moment with this great song.
This morning as I walked along the canal, my iPod surprised me with none other than "The Circle of Life". That song is never unwanted for me. As I passed the flowing water and reeds rustling in the wind I thought, "Well done iPod, well done."
And as I turned the corner, after realizing how long my peaceful walk had taken me, my iPod rewarded me with PYT to enjoy as I hurried down the busy street to the train station. Mr. Jackson finished his song just in time for me to watch the train that I needed to be on, pull away from the station.
Next song, wise iPod shuffle?

It is three decades since the pride of Hartlepoool sailed to the town.
Today marks the 30th anniversary of the return of the HMS Trincomalee, now the mainstay of the town's Historic Quay and its National Museum of the Royal Navy.
Looking at her now, it is hard to remember just how sorry a state she was in when she returned to her homeport to be restored by a painstaking team of experts.
Then known as TS Foudroyant (the name she had been given after being decommissioned from naval service in 1897), she had been used as a training ship before the decision was taken to restore her.
Before she could be moved, a number of surveys had to be carried out and these deemed the hull unsafe for towing. The ship would have to be placed on a floating barge called the Goliath Pacific and brought up to the River Tees.
She arrived in the Tees on July 29, 1987, after which she was taken off the barge and towed to Hartlepool, to be restored and conserved by the same team that had previously restored HMS Warrior.
It took several years for the restoration to actually start as funds had to be raised and it had to be decided where she would go afterwards.
It was finally agreed she would remain in Hartlepool and restoration began in 1990, with initial funding from the Teesside Development Corporation and Hartlepool Borough Council, later followed by Heritage Lottery Funding. It was completed in 2001.
Hartlepool borough council leader Coun Christopher Akers-Belcher paid tribute to the dedicated team of experts who had restored her, saying: "I am hugely proud that a team of local people restored HMS Trincomalee here in Hartlepool and that the oldest warship afloat in Europe is now proudly on display in our town. HMS Trincomalee is now at the centre of the National Museum of the Royal Navy in Hartlepool which is helping to establish the town as a key tourist destination. HMS Trincomalee is something special and is enjoyed by people young and old and I am confident she will continue to be enjoyed by many generations to come."
Hartlepool MP Mike Hill is delighted the 'Trinc' is here: "The Trincomalee is such an important asset for the town, now only in terms of tourism, but a sense of pride in our ship-building history," he said,
"I am proud as MP to have such a marvellous piece of Britain's navel heritage in our town."

why do people keep comparing Vampire Weekend to the Strokes?
where in gods name are people getting that?
more successful than they should be
little bit boring ?
correct answer
both Vampire Weekend and Is This It are a pair of effortlessly glorious records, full of single-worthy songs that would spread glee in any indie club.
Both had lots of hype. Both lived up to the hype. Both sold loads in the UK but not as much over there. Both from New York.
cos is you mixed graceland with
is this it you would get whatever the vampire weekend album is called - strokes/ television??? whuh
Example of bands with good singles and debuts
but are bound to get shitter and shitter?
i'm mainly talking about
musical comparisons, and not many of these responses are addressing that. both of them being fom the same city, for example, is completely irrelevant. fountains of wayne are from new york, doesn't mean their compared to the strokes
Well done on picking up on 1/6th of my points.
PS. Are you really that bothered?
Both bands
clearly think that they are a lot better than they really are and both put in minimal effort and sound so soulless
yes it bothers me
it's like comparing the stooges to paul simon
easy answer.
Both are very simple catchy songs played with bass and guitar and drums.
They play quite short pop songs.
The drums are really simple.
The guitars are tight and intricate with lots of downward strumming.
They're both from New York.
The production is really similair.
The production is really similar?
Both massively hyped NYC bands
that few people can admit aren't actually all that?
music journos make lazy comparisons

Quench not the Spirit;
Definitions for 1-thessalonians 5 :19
Clarke's Commentary on 1-thessalonians 5 :19
Quench not the Spirit - The Holy Spirit is represented as a fire, because it is his province to enlighten and quicken the soul; and to purge, purify, and refine it. This Spirit is represented as being quenched when any act is done, word spoken, or temper indulged, contrary to its dictates. It is the Spirit of love, and therefore anger, malice, revenge, or any unkind or unholy temper, will quench it so that it will withdraw its influences; and then the heart is left in a state of hardness and darkness. It has been observed that fire may be quenched as well by heaping earth on it as by throwing water on it; and so the love of the world will as effectually grieve and quench the Spirit as any ordinary act of transgression.
Every genuine Christian is made a partaker of the Spirit of God; and he who has not the spirit of Christ is none of his. It cannot be the miraculous gifts of the Spirit which the apostle means, for these were given to few, and not always; for even apostles could not work miracles when they pleased; but the direction in the text is general, and refers to a gift of which they were generally partakers.
Barnes's Commentary on 1-thessalonians 5 :19
Quench not the Spirit - This language is taken from the way of putting out a fire, and the sense is, we are not to extinguish the influences of the Holy Spirit in our hearts. Possibly there may be an allusion here to fire on an altar, which was to be kept constantly burning. This fire may have been regarded as emblematic of devotion, and as denoting that that devotion was never to become extinct. The Holy Spirit is the source of true devotion, and hence the enkindlings of piety in the heart, by the Spirit, are never to be quenched. Fire may be put out by pouring on water; or by covering it with any incombustible substance; or by neglecting to supply fuel. If it is to be made to burn, it must be nourished with proper care and attention. The Holy Spirit, in his influences on the soul, is here compared with fire that might be made to burn more intensely, or that might be extinguished.
In a similar manner the apostle gives this direction to Timothy, "I put thee in remembrance that thou stir up ἀναζωπυρεῖν anazōpurein, kindle up, cause to burn) the gift of God;" 2 Timothy 1:6. Anything that will tend to damp the ardor of piety in the soul; to chill our feelings; to render us cold and lifeless in the service of God, may be regarded as "quenching the Spirit." Neglect of cultivating the Christian graces, or of prayer, of the Bible, of the sanctuary, of a careful watchfulness over the heart, will do it. Worldliness, vanity, levity, ambition, pride, the love of dress, or indulgence in an improper train of thought, will do it. It is a great rule in religion that all the piety which there is in the soul is the fair result of culture. A man has no more religion than he intends to have; he has no graces of the Spirit which he does not seek; he has no deadness to the world which is not the object of his sincere desire, and which he does not aim to have. Any one, if he will, may make elevated attainments in the divine life; or he may make his religion merely a religion of form, and know little of its power and its consolations.
Wesley's Commentary on 1-thessalonians 5 :19
5:19 Quench not the Spirit - Wherever it is, it burns; it flames in holy love, in joy, prayer, thanksgiving. O quench it not, damp it not in yourself or others, either by neglecting to do good, or by doing evil!

An arrest by Salt Lake County Sheriff's deputies brought the house down over the weekend or at least the ceiling.
While deputies were trying to arrest two wanted men hiding in an attic, the ceiling collapsed, sending two men and a police K9 dog tumbling to the ground eight feet below. A deputy was able to grab a support beam to prevent himself from falling.
"I've never seen anything like this. It was just incredible," said Salt Lake County Sheriff's deputy Shane Manwaring, who was part of the squad that entered the house as backup after the ceiling fell.
The men didn't just fall through a hole in the ceiling, but rather the entire ceiling collapsed, he said.
Early Sunday, detectives received information that a man wanted for investigation of drug distribution was at a house near 5600 West and 5300 South, Manwaring said. Deputies doing surveillance on the home were able to confirm the wanted man was inside.
As the deputies were waiting for backup officers to arrive, two men who walked out of the house through the back door were detained for questioning. Based on the information gathered from the detained men, deputies learned there were 20 to 30 more people in the house, Manwaring said, and the man they wanted was possibly armed with a Tech-9 handgun.
Additional backup from all over the valley, including other agencies, was called to the scene. Once the house was surrounded, a deputy pulled into the driveway with his patrol car and used the vehicle's public-address system to call to the people inside the house to come out one-by-one.
Nearly 30 people came out, but not the man they were originally looking for, Manwaring said. After numerous repeated warnings were issued to come out or they would send a police K9 dog in, deputies made good on their threat.
The dog cleared the entire house, with the exception of a crawl space in the attic, without finding the man. A deputy lifted the dog into the attic where he found two people hiding, including the wanted man.
The K9 dog tried dragging one of the people out and ended up tearing off his shoe, Manwaring said. The man also received several bite marks on the leg.
The second man tried to sink low into the insulation so as not to be seen, and he also tried to fight off the dog with his leg. A deputy told the man he would call the dog off if he crawled toward him, Manwaring said.
The man and the dog were in the process of returning to the handler when the entire roof gave way without warning. Both men and the dog dropped to the ground.
Kody Sinfield, 26, was booked into the Salt Lake County Jail for investigation of drug distribution and other warrants. The second man in the attic, Joshua Hartvixen, 23, was booked for investigation of assaulting a police dog and obstruction of justice.
The K9 dog was not seriously injured.

Poor little Lulu was supposed to graduate from "toddler bridge group" to "pre-K" today, but when I saw her lying on the couch doing nothing, I knew things had gone south. Her temperature was 102.4 and she was hot to the touch.
Tessa has come down with sinus misery, and by late this afternoon, I could barely swallow. This whole house is laid low, man. Can someone out there be effortlessly witty and delightful in my stead today?

English professor Emma Grant has always done everything just the way her minister father told her she should -- a respectable marriage, a teaching job at a good college, and plans for the requisite two children. Life was prodigiously good, as her favorite author Jane Austen might say, until the day Emma finds her husband in bed with another woman. Suddenly, all her romantic notions a la Austen are exposed for the foolish dreams they are.Here is my review:
Denied tenure in the wake of the scandal and left penniless by the ensuing divorce, Emma packs up what few worldly possessions she has left and heads to England on a quest to find the missing letters of Jane Austen. Locating the elusive letters, however, isn't as straightforward as Emma hoped. The owner of the letters proves coy about her prize possessions, sending Emma on a series of Austen-related tasks that bring her closer and closer to the truth, but the sudden reappearance of Emma's first love makes everything more complicated.
In the end, Emma learns that doing the right thing has very little to do with other people's expectations and everything to do with her own beliefs. Laced with fictional excerpts from the missing letters, Jane Austen Ruined My Life is the story of a woman betrayed who uncovers the deeper meaning of loyalty.
The title and cover of this book really drew me in, I thought it would be something fun and light to read. In the end I thought it was pretty good. Not great but I didn't hate it. I'm not much of a Jane Austen fan, I never read any of her books (although most of them are on my list for this year) but I have seen the movies. This book is about a professors that knows everything about her life so it was kind of interesting to get a little of that personal information.
This book also has a small amount of mystery as the main character runs around England finding clues to piece together more information about Jane Austen. It also has a little romance on the side, which I always enjoy.
What this book really did was make me crave to go to England, it has always been a dream of mine and the details in this book made me wish to go even more.

2016 Toyota Mirai: Paving the hydrogen highway
Toyota's Fuel Cell Vehicle, which was unveiled at the Tokyo Motor Show last year, now has a name: Mirai, which means "future" in Japanese. This new production model lays out Toyota's vision for hydrogen as the future fuel for automobiles. The Mirai is a midsize 4-door sedan said to have a range of 300 miles on a single tank of compressed hydrogen. Designed to be fun to drive, Mirai's fuel cell stack produces 153 horsepower enabling it to reach 60 mph in about nine seconds. It's also expected to be as quiet as a Lexus hybrid. An interesting feature of the Mirai is that in the event of an emergency, the car can serve as a generator. There's an outlet in the trunk for that purpose, and the Mirai can power appliances in a home for up to a week.
It takes about five minutes to fill the tank, and the only emission from the fuel cell is water vapor. Toyota is helping companies that are developing the hydrogen infrastructure, so the number of refueling stations will continue to increase.
High style
One of the biggest standout features of the 2016 Toyota Mirai is its styling. When the Prius arrived in the U.S., the reason for its looks was twofold: functional necessity, plus the goal of making the Prius look unlike anything else on the road. The Mirai uses a similar mix of form and function. The front end's shape helps draw in air. Both the roof and underbody ensure air flows smoothly over and under the car, improving aerodynamics. And you can't confuse the Mirai for any other car out there.
Also: The Class of 2016 -- New Vehicles Ready to Roll
That mix of form and function is also apparent inside. Along the top of the dash there's a widescreen showcasing several key pieces of information, including range, speed and the "Ready" indicator that indicates the car is running. For one section of the display, you can toggle through different screens by using buttons on the steering wheel. The most useful is the power/regeneration screen, which is similar to the one you'd find in a Prius. As your eyes move down the center stack, there are unique swooping flourishes that break up the black dash. The car's shifter is nearly identical to the Prius. Below that is the climate control, which doesn't use knobs or buttons. There are two sliders, one for the driver and one for the passenger. You run your finger along the slider to raise or lower the temperature. Despite some similar components, this isn't a Prius interior; it's more luxurious. The dash and doors use generous amounts of soft-touch materials, the seats are covered in exceptionally soft leather and there are carbon fiber accents.
24/7 support
The 2016 Mirai will come with concierge service that is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Three years of Toyota Care maintenance and 24-hour roadside assistance are included, and the warranty on the fuel cell components is for 8 years/100,000 miles. On sale first next month in Japan, Mirai sales roll out in regionally in the U.S. a year from now with about 200 units in California, followed by the Northeast in 2016 as production ramps up. Shoppers will have a choice of buying or leasing the $57,500 Mirai. Toyota expects most customers will opt for the $499 per month for 36 months lease plan. However, that price is before incentives, which could bring the price down to under $45,000.

There are two ways to think of a creative, freelance lifestyle: one is to work all the time and never do anything else until you wear yourself down into a dry little nub, or to accept that you inhabit a creative realm where the more variety you have, the more it all feeds your work. And sometimes it just feeds you.
Sort of like gardening, growing your own food, or. . .feeding sourdough starter! I got the idea back on April 10 to make my own starter. I don't know why, just because. That's as valid a reason as any to try something new. I never liked the really sour sourdough bread, so this seemed contrary, but I was intrigued with the idea of starting my own living culture and keeping it going.
It's May 16 now, just over a month, and my starter is going strong. It has yielded one terrific loaf of bread, waffles, and a fantastic pizza dough. This week will be more bread. I'm a convert and hope to have my starter continue for many years. The thing I like best is the flavor. Though it's called sourdough, there is a range of flavors you can create, and they aren't necessarily "sour" — and that's part of the fun. I have truly never had pizza dough or waffles, etc that were so delicious.
I started here for my starter (no, sorry, KA, you don't need to buy it), using King Arthur's instructions for making starter, and they worked just fine. After the 6 days, I continued with the starter much in the way I write a book, I played it by ear. After it went in the fridge, I watched it and see when it stopped bubbling, or got liquidy, and then I would just feed it. As is my way, I didn't keep my starter to an external schedule, I just feed it when it seems to need feeding (or when I need more).
I've found an enormous number of resources online for sourdough. You could drive yourself nuts trying to conform to the rigorous routines some folks like to follow (to each their own), but I like things easy and intuitive. For me, sourdough is more like art, not science, more play than work. I'm always kind of puzzled by how difficult people make this sound.
Never mind the people who make too many rules. I've read things like "You can only ever use the flour you start with" to feed your starter. Not so, I started with organic wheat flour, and I use white flour most of the time, but I still throw some wheat in there from time to time. I might try some rye at a different point, we'll see. I rarely drain off the "hooch" — liquid that can accumulate — for no other reason than it didn't occur to me. Turns out you can, or you don't have to, it's all up to you. Isn't that the best? (Guess what? This is largely true with writing as well.)
So, anyway, the waffles I made this weekend were things of beauty. I had to freeze the leftovers so I didn't eat them all. You can find the recipe at Serious Eats.
What I liked best about this recipe is that there's no sponge, no overnight proofing. As they point out, you are just using the starter for flavor, and the baking powder provides the rise — which is fine by me because I like breakfast with no fuss. I think this recipe would probably work well for pancakes, too, and now, I just had the idea to try it in a German pancake one of these days….
I did go the more "pure sourdough" route with my first loaf of bread, though, and used only the starter for a rise. It came out perfect, and so delicious using this recipe from the Food.com.
I would make it again. I still followed my instincts (I almost never follow a recipe exactly). I did two rises (one in the bowl, one on a tray), instead of one, and I baked it freeform instead of in a pan.
This recipe also used a lot of starter. I've been reading more about breads, and it appears you can use much less starter, particularly if you 1) warm it up and feed it a bit the day before or 2) wait longer for it to proof.
I also had to proof my dough in the oven because the house was cold, but it worked fine — I turned on the warm setting for a minute, shut the oven off, and then just put the bowl in there with a towel over it. But while I'll make this one of our go-to sourdough recipes, I definitely want to try others. Still, this was easy-peasy, which is my favorite kind of recipe.
Because of my preference for more experimental and less rigid thinking about things like baking (well, about most everything, except commas..and quotation marks), I prefer stress-free routes to such activities. What's the point of making hobbies too stressful?
So, with that in mind, I found two websites that have a lot of information, but that also encourage more experimentation and fun. One is The Spendid Table recipe/discussion about making bread. This is good information, I think, because it's clear this person also comes at it from a creative approach. You take your cues from the starter, from the day you happen to be in, etc when you bake. You come at it from a responsive rather than a rigid mindset.
The other is the Cultures for Health website, which is about all things that require home fermentation, and it has oodles of recipes and articles about sourdough. They also have a nice mix of technical "why this is what it is" articles, but encourage play and improvisation.
And play and improvisation have to be the cornerstones of a freelance, creative life, wouldn't you agree?

An outer layer of paint can make a destination memorable. Jaipur, India is known as the Pink City because of the dusty rose-colored buildings that make up its historical center. Santorini is known for its white buildings against the brilliant blue sea, and the colonial towns of Mexico for their bright multicolored rows of buildings.
In Berlin, rather than a color or set of colors, the decorative theme that lingers in your mind is the collective scrawl of anyone who can get their hands on a can of spray paint.
The combination of abandoned spaces, drab boxy buildings, decades of formidable history, and an outspoken population that seems to both struggle with and thrive on its city's reputation of being poor have all contributed to Berlin becoming one of the most graffiti-heavy places in the world:

There is a deliberate compromise on the special status of Jammu and Kashmir.Every-time when there is a deliberate attempt on the special status of restive Jammu and Kashmir State, a political calamity hits the State. Mainstream political parties including both the ruling coalition partner PDP and the opposition led by NC, separatist leadership, civil society, traders and other pressure groups are on the same page to safeguard JK's special status that has come under threat after inimical forces to the state taking legal course have launched fresh assaults on the sensitive Article 35-A. Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti said that the special powers enjoyed by the citizens of the state (J&K) need to be protected. Now senior PDP Minister and Government Spokesman Nayeem Akhter has said that his party (PDP) won't allow any tinkering with article 35 A governing property rights act in the state, article 370 granting special status to the state and Chief Minister has been given assurances by none else than Prime Minister Narendra Modi during the meeting between the two leaders in the Prime Minister's office two days back. Earlier the CM had lambasted the parties for creating "confusion" over the issues cropping uo for the State government. She evinced against the crusade set out to get the better of Article 35-A and Article 370, the two Constitutional (Indian Constitution) provisions that guarantee the special status. "if the Article is tinkered with there will be no one to hold the tricolor in the state. Some right-wing groups while taking exception to her bold statement even challenged the CM to give it a try." Nevertheless, the consensus on defending the provisions (Articles) has evolved at short notice; in just couple of days leaders of all shades have come out strongly to defend the status of the state. National Conference President Farooq Abdullah as an ally took it to the next level by daring New Delhi to try scrapping Article 35-A. Hurriyat Conference Chairman Syed Ali Geelani also cautioned New Delhi on carrying out "nefarious designs" in J&K. He said that the people of the state won't allow anyone to alter or interfere with the integrity and special status of the state. Traders' body had already offered its support and on Wednesday All Parties Sikh Coordination Committee joined hands to defend the provisions. That leaves a minority or fringe as a proponent of abrogating the Articles. There is a danger lurking in the state about fault lines being established and made permanent to divide the opinions, interests and the people for petty political gains.

Learning The "Secrets" of Businesses
If the topic is about a totally physical makeover, very few people are willing to dispel myths even today. From beginning during the early years of childhood – watching how to prep your mom's or your sister's hair or nails, or their and face – it eventually affects you as you grow into adulthood. Truly, the time-tested practices and methods on how to keep the female countenance as comely and young as possible is passed down through the ages over the years.

Though in general, always making sure that you look beautiful at all times gives joy to the spectators, produces a positive flow of vitality and energy, and definitely proves that you hold yourself in high self-esteem.
If you are more anxious about committing style and beauty errors, then how can you become more seasoned and eventually a pro if you will not allow yourself to make mistakes? This is very important if you are thinking of becoming a reseller of beauty and fashionable products in the market, you must know what works and what does not.
As such, what needs to be asked is the question, what is beautiful and stylish for the person?
There are those people who, at the end of the day, would definite style and beauty as that of the certain characteristics of the individual that gives delight as much as pique the interests of the others around him, particularly in this day and age. More so with the innovations brought about by the internet, the more that it has become easier and effortless to be up-to-date with the latest trends in beauty and fashion. To this day, magazines, journals, beauty sites, and even e-commerce outlets have provided an avenue for reseller as well as buyers alike to be a source of information on the latest tips and current trends.
Indeed, beauty and that unique style of the individual are essential perspectives in today's general public. Admittedly, just about anyone gets a kick out of the chance to entertain, be admired, noticed and stand out from the crowd because of their very own uniqueness in excellent style and beauty. Whenever possible, grab your fashionable friend, colleague or family member that has proven herself, time and again, that she has a great taste in shopping to go out and walk around malls and shops with you. Chances are they will help you find the right items quickly by getting directly to the point and telling you what you need to buy.

Zits and now, cellulite? That's preposterous! Yes, cellulite is the slight bulge you see on your thighs, hips, buttocks and abdomen. Some called it the "orange-peel"; it commonly affects adolescent and adult women. And, it is downright unsightly! I mean, how are you going to boast of your slim body if cellulite is in sight?
Cellulite is not harmful. It is simply unattractive dimpled-fat-lump that most women wish to be rid of. Cellulite is commonly found in body parts with fat reserves such as thighs, hips, and buttocks. What happens is that the tissues connecting the fats to the muscles change their positioning between layers of various tissues. Called septa, the connective tissues may stretch, break down or pull tight. Under this condition, the fat bulges out near to the skin surface and bam, cellulite! It can happen to anyone regardless of age, gender, and body size.
Here are the 3 grades of cellulite.
There are some theories that can perhaps explain its occurrence:
Lose some kilos:
A healthy diet:
Surgical and lasering treatment:
If you're looking to remove cellulite, consult a dermatologist. Here are some options you can take to remove cellulite.
Take caution if you plan to use alternatives such as cellulite creams as they may not be effective. Some common ones are:
There are no proven studies to prove their efficacy. They usually contain a mixture of ingredients such as vitamins, minerals, herbal extracts and antioxidants that are said to improve cellulite. When used, it can cause skin rashes or allergic reactions in some people.
This involves injection of substances such as enzymes, vitamins, and amino acids into the tissues below the skin. It may bring slight improvement to cellulite. But it can also cause infection or swelling.
This form of treatment offers temporary effects and do not remove cellulite.

World cricket woke up stronger on Monday morning. Not just because it had witnessed
a pulsating game of one-day cricket between Sri Lanka and Australia in Dambulla –
a rarity for such a formulaic version of the game – but because an ancient spirit
of the game was awoken in the fierce heat of battle. Sportsmanship, an endangered
concept in all modern day sport, blessed international cricket.
Australia had lost a flurry of wickets, slipping from 148 for 1 to 190 for 4. But
with Andrew Symonds and Adam Gilchrist at the crease and Michael Bevan, finisher extraordinaire,
still padded and waiting in the wings, Australia were odds on winners, needing a modest
56 at a run-a-ball with six wickets to spare. Kumar Dharmasena was pinging down his
flat off-breaks and Symonds edged an attempted pull onto his pads. Both bowler and
wicketkeeper appealed instantaneously and Peter Manuel raised his finger. Sri Lanka
had struck a crucial blow.
Symonds was shocked but kept his cool and walked. Gilcrhist, the non-striker, was
equally appalled, his reaction tight-roping the definition of dissent. Sri Lanka celebrated
in a huddle but they knew it was not out. "It was an obvious nick to most of us and
it was awkward for a moment," said Marvan Atapattu, Sri Lanka's one-day captain. "I
mean …it was not a bump ball or something like that. We did not really know
what to do."
But seconds after raising his finger, doubt had spread across Manuel's face. He consulted
first with Billy Bowden, his eccentric but cool-headed partner, and then turned to
Atapattu. "He told me that he believed that he had made a mistake and that he wanted
to call Symonds (now over half way back to the pavilion) back. He asked me whether
I would have a problem with that and I said no. It was obvious to us he [Symonds]
had hit the ball and this is a game after all – we have to look after its spirit.
We were all happy with the decision."
What goes around comes around, they say, and perhaps it was Gilchrist who sowed the
sporting seed when he walked during the 2003 World Cup semi-final against Sri Lanka,
a remarkable decision that was greeted with stony silence upon his return to the dressing
room. Now Atapattu has followed up with a return gesture, which in turn presents us
with an intriguing possibility: will the players of both teams now play the rest of
the series as graciously and fairly? [CricInfo]
