Have you try start in safe mode?
Have you already thought this is about a HDD issue? HDD bad sector issues are very common (a PC tech is telling you). Do a short test with the appropriate software before trying anything else, you know, the substratum (i.e. hdd surface and sectors) should be healthy otherwise you are facing data corruption inevitably.
Btw do a short RAM test, just to be sure.
safe mode i cant use cos there is no option F8 like on windows 7
i dont try this ram test....
anyway so no any tool for fix boot or something ?
start/run msconfig
boot tab & select Safe Boot
SafeBoot ON
@echo off
bcdedit /set safeboot Minimal
shutdown -r -f -t 0
SafeBoot OFF
@echo off
bcdedit /deletevalue safeboot
shutdown -r -f -t 0
*edit* upssssss, ... on reread i see that you posted "OS only restarting"
try the command after boot from disk "repair your computer"
@echo off
bcdedit /set safeboot Minimal
shutdown -r -f -t 0
@echo off
bcdedit /deletevalue safeboot
shutdown -r -f -t 0
ok friend but if also this not working ? and pc still not boot and always restarting ?
Go to bios and disable:
-safe boot (if you have it activated)
-disable UEFI bios (read motherboard manual), probably just need to change from "UEFI" to "legacy bios"
After that, restart and spam F8 key until you have no finger
If this still no work, press the reset key (from tower) and again spam F8.

As expected, Microsoft has officially announced the next addition of its Surface model of portable computers, it's a new tablet aimed at the more budget conscious market that the Surface Pro simply cannot hope to serve.
Dubbed Surface Go, a 10-inch device which may need a handful of accessories in order to achieve its potential. Starting at $399 price-tag, the all-new Surface Go tablet has 9.6-by-6.9-by-0.3 inches dimensions and weighs just 1.2 pounds. By all means, the new Microsoft's Surface gadget is something to look at right now.
Specifications-wise, the Surface Go ships with a 10-inch PixelSense Display, out with 64GB of eMMC storage drive and 4GB of RAM memory at the entry $400 point. However, anyone wanting a little more oomph can hand over $549 in order to get 128GB of SSD storage and 8GB of RAM which may also make this offering a more capable device.
So, there are two models which both are WiFi-only, still has an LTE version of the Surface Go available, though. They will not make the launch date of August 2nd. The same goes for a high-end 256GB version of the hardware, too, albeit everything else is available for pre-order now.
Connectivity on the Surface Go offers USB-C ports for both charging and network access, something that may be an issue for some.
Starting price of the Surface Go is relatively expensive, and it goes with the accessories as well, which will see the overall purchase price grow. While the Type Cover starts at $99 but will increase to $129 for anyone who wants "laptop-class typing," that's something you will apparently get them keys with around 1mm of physical travel.
Meet the new Surface Go! No matter which os the two keyboards you choose, they will be available in multiple colors with colored pointing devices also available to match at $35 apiece. Want a Surface Pen? It's another $99 buyout, so all in you're going to know exactly how much you're willing to spend before picking one of these things hands-on.
All of the Surface Go machines ship with Windows 10 S software installed. But only apps downloaded from the Microsoft Store can be used, are you forcing? However, a free upgrade to a standard Windows 10 installation is also available, should that be required.
Indeed, the Surface Go might be one of the most interesting releases this year and cannot wait to see how well it stacks up and compete with the entry-level 9.7-inch iPad.

"Sitting in his office between a sculpture of a penis and a pile of pornographic magazines, psychiatrist Ng Man-lun says he is on a mission to elevate sex to the realm of art and culture.
The Hong Kong professor, who says the magazines are officially teaching tools but "sometimes for my own entertainment", is behind the territory's first sex festival and hopes the week-long event will break down taboos on the issue.
Known here as Doctor Sex, Ng says he hopes the Sex Cultural Festival that kicks off on Sunday will change the way people in Hong Kong view the subject.
Putting sex at the bottom of their list of priorities and having the wrong attitude about sex are partly to blame, Ng says.
"Some people think sex is for making babies. They don't think about how to satisfy their partners or even themselves, what methods to take, the frequency and realise the relationship between sex and love," he says.
"I put sex as the number one priority in my life. It can improve your life, makes you happier, gives you more energy. Money is not that important if your wife leaves you or your kids run away," he says." [Read the full article
And indeed, the Hong Kong people need Dr Ng's love - Durex's recent survey discovered they only get it on 78 times a year, compared with over a 100 times a year on average. Looks like there's a lot to learn. Check our better sex books if you're interested in expanding your naughty horizons…
As well as having 25 million condoms donated by the Brazilian government during the Carnival season, San Paulo and Salvador revellers will be able to be extra sweet to any one they smooch with a new germ-killing mouthspray. "Serial kissers at Brazil's racy Carnival parades can now swap saliva with even more revellers thanks to a mouth spray designed to fight germs, just one of many weird products companies have launched to profit from traditionally libidinous revelry.
The spray was launched by a local company for Carnival celebrations this weekend in Salvador, the heart of Brazil's African culture, and Sao Paulo, its biggest city. French kissing among strangers is rife during Carnival.
Its slogan was "Kiss a lot, kiss pleasurably, kiss safe." "[Read the full story at Reuters].

Sounds like Sex And The City is having a significant impact on the women of China, if this column at Asian Sex Gazette is to believed. The exploits of Carrie, Samantha, et al - especially that episode where Charlotte turns into a recluse after discovering the Jessica Rabbit Vibrator - have become immensely popular in the People's Republic, and now Chinese women want to know where how they can "feed the rabbit" as well…
And now some good news for our American friends:
iBuzz, the iPod sex toy that has already caused a buzz in The New York Times, Harper's Index and Wired.com, will be launched in the US on 24 February - the birthday of Apple boss Steve Jobs.
Already a best-seller in Europe iBuzz, from makers Love Labs, is the music-activated orgasm machine that can be connected to any iPod, MP3 player or music source. And when it drops into Steve's mailbox on Friday, never will anyone have been so excited to hear the song "Happy Birthday to you!".
How does it work? iBuzz has a bullet that vibrates in time to the music and when the volume is turned up, the vibrations get stronger. It is supplied with his-and-hers ring and stimulator, white iPod-style wires to connect to a music source, and a headphone splitter so users can listen to their music while enjoying the vibrations. If you don't have an MP3 player handy, the iBuzz can be used as a stand-alone vibrator thanks to its seven vibration patterns.
Clip the iBuzz onto your belt and slip the bullet into your pocket (or elsewhere) for proof of how a good bassline can produce euphoria in even the most out-of-touch music heads. Monday morning's journey into work never seemed so appealing…
No MP3 player? No worries - the iBuzz still works on its own without music. Just turn on and enjoy the seven amazing vibration patterns. Better still, it is discreet, stylish and easy to use anywhere. The iBuzz - which songs will push your buttons?
iBuzz will ship across the US from 24 February, the birthday of Apple boss Steve Jobs.
Pre-order now at ibuzzusa.com. iBuzz costs $59.99 plus $7.50 shipping.
And of course, if you live in dear old Blighty or in tres continental Europe, you can buy it from the original iBuzz UK website.
NB: iBuzz is not endorsed by Apple Computer, Inc. iPod is a registered trademark of Apple Computer, Inc.
One of the most gloriously extravagant and worth-every-penny toys Ms Lovehoney has in her treasure trove is Je Joue, the ultimate personal massager. We talked about its supreme pulsating loveliness a few days ago, but in the meantime, Mr qDot at tech-sex-toys blog Slashdong who doesn't even have the right bits to enjoy Je Joue is still mightily impressed with it.

Jewellry, watches, phones - they're all passe if you want to stand out from the crowd with something really bling. What you actually need to be Queen Bling is a Le Lynx Titanium Vibrator, a truly sumptuous vibe that's crafted in one of the shiniest metals known to man and comes in an exquisite leopard print and velvet-lined box.

What more could you want?
Yale University has been experimenting with some new ways to educate its students about the joy of sex and better ways to have healthy, safe sex. They've not been shy in being broadminded, and while it's caused some controversy, such open-mindedness can only be a Good Thing. The Guardian reveals all:
Welcome to Sex Week at Yale, a biennial celebration that has become one of the most provocative campus events in the country.
Organizers say Sex Week gets students talking about sex in a way that's more relevant than middle-school film strips, more honest than movies and television, and more fun than requisite college health lectures.
"To get people's attention, we do have to do things a little risque and a little different than other sex education programs," said junior Dain Lewis, who was inspired to direct Sex Week 2006 after attending the 2004 event.
Yale's event, which ends Saturday, includes lectures from dating specialists, a sex therapist and a discussion of homosexuality with a former Roman Catholic priest. More provocative sessions include a panel of porn stars and stripping lessons from a Playboy Channel hostess.
Critics say Sex Week is just the latest act of debauchery at colleges in recent years: Students started sex columns. Vassar and others created erotica journals. Harvard launched H-Bomb, a magazine featuring suggestive pictures of undergraduates. Washington University in St. Louis offered a sex-themed week with orgasm seminars and condom telegrams.
If you're looking for some easy to understand information about safe sex and what sex toys are best for you, take a look at the Lovehoney Buying Guides for a whole bunch of different subjects to explore.
Ananova: "The 'heart' symbol used to represent love is actually based on the shape of female buttocks, according to a scientist.
Pscychologist Galdino Pranzarone, who studied the origins of Valentine's Day, says the symbol is inspired by a woman's bottom as seen from the rear.
Prof Pranzarone, of Roanoke College in Salem, Virginia, told Discovery News that he analyzed "essential literary and speculative evidence from mythology and secondary sources."" [Read the full story]

Saturday was a busy day devoted to 3 meetings regarding vision care. Dr. John Jarstad, the LDS Vision Specialist was in Seoul, Korea to present his research at an international Ophthalmology conference. He flew into Jakarta to attend a special dinner for his good friend Dr. TD, so we made use of his availability while he was here.
We started off with a meeting with CBM, a German NGO involved in worldwide vision care. They have a full time staff here in Indonesia and we met with Matthew to see if there were any ways for LDSC to partner with a larger, vision NGO rather than with individual universities. While our partnership with Gadja Madah University in Jogja is a good one, could we cast a wider net with CBM? Good question – we'll see.
After that, we met with Dr. Suhardjo and Prysillia from GMU at the Shangri-La Hotel, where the dinner was to be held. (Wow – the Shangri-La is about a fancy a hotel as can be found anywhere in the world.)
We have a project with these folks to provide a special teaching microscope to the Opth. School, and also to provide funds for eyeglasses for poor children in the area. Since Dr. Jarstad was in town (and Dr. Suhardjo was to attend the dinner as well), we thought it would be good to have a face-to-face meeting to discuss the 2017 project.
Dr. S and Prysillia had taken the train from Jogja (a 10-hour trip) and arrived just before our meeting. After our 1.5 hour meeting, they said they could not stay for the dinner and were taking the train 10 hours back to Jogja. Such dedication…..
Dr. Jarstad was here to attend the dinner for LDS Charities to honor Dr.Tjahjono D. Gondhowiardjo (Dr. TD!) for his work in establishing the Indonesia Eye Bank (Bank Mata).
Dr. TD and Dr. Jarstad are very good friends and have known each other for almost 25 years and go way back. we kept Dr. Jarstad's attendance a surprise and Dr. TD was totally shocked when he saw Dr. J!
LDSC is working with Bank Mata to try and have people sign up to donate their corneas when they die. But donating corneas (or any organ) is VERY unusual in Indonesia and culturally, there is a lot to overcome. Muslims are not quite sure how they feel about it (there is no rule against it) but it's new and many people feel like they SHOULD be against it because it sounds morbid. Or, another objection has been "it's God's will that someone is blind – so who are we to interfere with God's will?" Well, that's easy to say until it's them or a family member that needs a simple cornea transplant so they can see! There are only 50 donated corneas per year in Indonesia – so they buy most of the corneas from Sri Lanka and India. Sad they only get 50 a year when the demand is approximately 100,000 per year. So we are trying to help – for example, the American Embassy is having a blood drive on Feb 14 and is allowing us to set up a Bank Mata table to try and have people sign up! There are many LDS members who work at the embassy so they helped us talk to right people!
The dinner was outstanding with about 90 people attending. Dr. Jarstad spoke, as did Elder Meredith (Area Authority from Singapore). Subandriyo spoke and talked about a "King in ancient times who thanked the people for feeding him when he was hungry, visiting him when he was in prison, and clothing him when he was naked. And they asked when they had done these things and the King answered 'when you have done it unto the least of these my brethren, you have done it unto me'. Sounds familiar! Dr. TD does a lot of charity surgery as well as his promotion of the Bank Mata, so this award is very well-deserved!

Amazon Prime Day has now become a staple of the British retailing calendar. But does all this attention on the retailing giant mean that others are losing out? Maru/edr look at Agile Survey Platform real-time results from the day to explore the wider impact on retail.
Since it made its way from across the pond three years ago, Amazon Prime Day has grown in popularity in the UK. Results released from the retailer suggest an increase in sales by as much as 60 per cent compared to last year.
Maru/edr's on-the-day Agile research platform revealed that event awareness is at an all-time high – 80 per cent of the consumers surveyed said that they had heard of Amazon Prime Day. Prime day trade peaked at 538,650 transactions an hour. Us Brits bought 45,000 pairs of headphones, 52,000 new kitchen items, 62,000 skincare products and 66,000 makeup items.
But are all these purchases at the expense of the British retailer?
The Halo effect
Perhaps surprising for some, our survey results revealed that all the talk surrounding Amazon Prime Day is having a positive impact on retailers.
While the sale day generates some impressive trading figures for Amazon, 72 per cent of the UK population have not purchased on Prime Day before yet over half (53 per cent) went online during the day to browse with other retailers with 11 per cent of those making a purchase. It all leads us to believe that despite the hype, advertising and awareness focused solely on Amazon, the rest of the British retail industry is benefitting too.
Making the most the opportunity
Luckily for retailers, Amazon Prime Day sits nicely within the British retail calendar and ties in with the traditional Summer sales period – it means that retailers do not need to invest in new strategies or realign calendars.
Instead, however, they need to focus on their digital experience. Given that the day is driven by the biggest online retailer, it's no surprise that Amazon Prime Day is a completely digital retail revolution. Amazon is working hard to encourage people online during a 24 hour period and it is up to retailers to ensure that their digital customer experience is the very best it can be if they're going to make the most of the opportunity.
Excelling online
Having analysed the digital retail market since 1999, we know what good looks like at Maru/edr.
Our exclusive research last year revealed that exceptional digital experiences are driven by four key factors – product, service, ease and fulfilment. Perform well in all four of these areas and on-the-day satisfaction more than doubles. But fail to perform in any area, and satisfaction drops to below 50 per cent.
And our years of experience have told us that satisfaction is important – it's a key indicator of repeat visits and loyalty both of which have a fundamental impact on the bottom line.
It means that measuring the online experience is more important than ever before – by measuring the things that matter the most, retailers can make better, more informed action and improvements and not only make their digital customer experience the very best it can be but make the most of the opportunities out there.

Dear bregaynay:
I'm an American citizen, I was born in this country to my american citizen mother, I work, go to school, own a house and pay taxes. My school tuition is paid for by the money that I earn working full time, that same full time job allows me to pay for my food, health care and mortgage. All this things more than rectify my status as an American. Yet, because of the color of my skin, when I cross the Border patrol checkpoints (N of Tombstone and N of Nogales), I am subject to multiple interrogations, asked to step out of my car in the middle of the night, while my children are asleep in the back of the car. This has happened multiple times, and I understand that these agents are only doing their job, enforcing the law, trying to prevent drugs and illegal immigrants to come into our country. Because of this, I comply with their requests, but what I will not have, is this same scenarios happening in my city, I refuse to be stopped while driving my kids to school, going to work or simply taking my kids to the park.
That won't happen some people say, officers are not allowed to stop people based solely on their race or color of their skin, it is written on SB1070! Well then I ask you, if this law is based on federal laws, and those laws are enforced by Border Patrol agents, in the manner described above, how will police officers enforce it any differently. I have traveled with my blond, blue eyed husband, no questions asked to him, it is me the big brown eyed, brown hair, tan skinned woman that gets asked all the questions about my citizenship status.
The federal law is being enforced, for I have experienced it in my time living in Southern Arizona, what is not being enforced is the laws that prevent employers from hiring people that are here illegally. NO JOBS, No reason to stay, NO AMERICAN demand for drugs, no reason to smuggle. SB 1070 does a good job at spending my tax payer dollars in a game of catch and release that doesn't do AZ any good, throw them out today, they'll be back tomorrow, give them an all expenses paid trip back to their country, they'll be back. As long as there is some american business (Wo)man willing to hire them, they'll be back.
I'll tell you who is more important, those of us who are citizens of this country,and that happen to have similarities in the way we look to those that come to this country illegally. SB1070 infringes on my rights as a citizen to travel freely around my state without the annoyance of being pulled over, while driving my american car, to show my papers.

Silverbridge attempted burglary 'an attack on entire community'
February 22, 2016
The attempted robbery of a shop in Silverbridge for the second time in recent weeks has been condemned by Councillor Barra Ó Muirí who described it as "an attack on the entire community".
Donnelly's supermarket was targeted around 3.30am on Monday last by raiders who rammed a vehicle against the front shutters of the premises in a fruitless attempt to gain entry. The business has just finished repairing damage caused by an almost identical incident last month.
Less than an hour later, around 4.25am, thieves gained entry to a Spar supermarket on Millvale Road in Bessbrook from where the raiders made off with a quantity of cigarettes. Again a vehicle was used to ram the front shutters of the shop.
Police are investigating a link to the two incidents and have appealed for information.
Councillor Ó Muirí said the criminals responsible are "a stain on the good name of south Armagh".
"There has been a catalogue of attempted robberies in south Armagh over the past 12 months, a concerted effort to disrupt, steal, injure and intimidate, with this being the second attempted robbery at Donnelly's shop," he said.
"Given the tragic history of the property at Donnelly's, local feelings are running high that these criminals are targeting the shop."
Urging people to be vigilant, he added: "I would encourage everyone to watch out for unusual behaviour, or strange cars at night time, and to pass all relevant information on to the authorities."
His party colleague Megan Fearon MLA added: "The south Armagh community will stand up to these thugs just as we've stood up to every attack on this area. I would urge anyone with information about this incident to contact the PSNI and help make our communities safer."


text: A mechanistic model of annular flow with evaporating liquid film has been developed using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The model is employing a separate solver with two-dimensional conservation equations to predict propagation of a thin boiling liquid film on solid walls. The liquid film model is coupled to a solver of three-dimensional conservation equations describing the gas core, which is assumed to contain a saturated mixture of vapor and liquid droplets. Both the Eulerian-Eulerian and the Eulerian-Lagrangian approach are used to describe the droplet and vapor motion in the gas core. All the major interaction phenomena between the liquid film and the gas core flow have been accounted for, including the liquid film evaporation as well as the droplet deposition and entrainment. The resultant unified framework for annular flow has been applied to the steam-water flow with conditions typical for a Boiling Water Reactor (BWR). The simulation results for the liquid film flow rate show good agreement with the experimental data, with the potential to predict the dryout occurrence based on criteria of critical film thickness or critical film flow rate.

Ansarullah (Ahmadiyya)
The topic of this article may not meet Wikipedia's general notability guideline. (May 2012)
| Part of a series on:
Distinct views
|Ahmadiyya portal
Ansarullah (Arabic: انصار الله; Helpers [in the cause] of Allah) is an auxiliary organization of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community for men of age 40 and over.[1][2] The name "Ansarullah" is an Arabic expression meaning "helpers of Allah." It is taken from a verse of the Holy Qur'an, "And when Jesus perceived their disbelief, he said, 'Who will be my helpers in the cause of Allah?' The disciples answered, 'We are the helpers of Allah. We have believed in Allah. And bear thou witness that we are obedient" (Āle`Imrān [Chapter 3]: Verse 53). Historically, the name refers to the residents of Medina who welcomed and granted asylum to Muhammad and the migrating Muslims after Hijrah (see Ansar (Islam)).
All Ahmadi Muslims who are forty years of age or over comprise the general body of 'Ansarullah.' Majlis Ansarullah, like the main body of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community – to which it is subordinate – is a non-political, religious and spiritual organization.
Aims and objectives
The aim of the organization is to promote the moral and spiritual training of its members resulting in a Godly, righteous, responsible and just society, true both to God and His creatures. The aims and objectives of the organization are reflected in the pledge, which every member has to make and recite in every formal meeting. These aims are:
- To organize all male Ahmadi Muslims over the age of forty years in the Silsila Aliya Ahmadiyya (Ahmadiyya Muslim Community).
- To inculcate the following amongst its members:
- The love of Allah.
- The spirit to promote and propagate the teachings of Islam.
- Exhort to preach Islam and serve mankind.
- The spiritual and moral training of children.
- The spirit of protecting the institution of Khilafat.
- The spirit of placing collective interests above individual interests.
- To remain a purely religious organization with no political interest whatsoever.

Investing.com - The U.S. dollar eased but remained close to five-month highs against a currency basket on Wednesday after a surge in U.S. government bond yields gave fresh impetus to a dollar rally that had lost momentum last week.
The U.S. dollar index, which measures the greenback's strength against a basket of six major currencies, dipped 0.11% to 93.05 by 03:45 AM ET (07:45 AM GMT), within close reach of Wednesday's five month peaks of 93.35.
The dollar jumped higher on Tuesday after a U.S. retail sales report indicated that consumer spending is on track to rebound after a soft patch in the first quarter, boosting expectations for continued economic growth.
The dollar was also boosted by the surge in U.S. Treasury yields following the report, as traders continued to price in a faster pace of rate hikes by the Federal Reserve this year.
The yield on 10-year U.S. Treasury notes rose as high as 3.095%, the highest level since August 2011. Bond yields move inversely to prices. The yield subsequently came off that level and was last at 3.067%.
Yields have climbing higher since the Fed said on at its May meeting that inflation is moving closer to its 2% target. The Fed raised rates in March and projected two more rate hikes this year, although many investors see three hikes as possible.
The dollar slipped lower against the yen, with USD/JPY losing 0.15% to trade at 110.14 after hitting 110.45 on Tuesday; the most since February 2.
The yen showed little reaction to news that Japan's economy contracted by a larger than forecast 0.6% in the first quarter, amid declines in investment and consumption and weaker export growth.
The euro was a touch higher, with EUR/USD edging up 0.13% to 1.1853, having fallen to 1.1815 overnight, its weakest since December 22.
The pound was almost unchanged for the day, with GBP/USD last at 1.3506 after hitting a five-month low of 1.3450 on Tuesday.
The Australian dollar pushed higher, with AUD/USD rising 0.23% to 0.7489 after ending the previous day down 0.77%.
The New Zealand dollar also gained ground, with NZD/USD climbing 0.39% to 0.6886 after reaching a five-month low of 0.6849 overnight.

I've thought of taking a picture of myself before I head off to the twins because I get ready for bed before I leave my house. So I wear flannel pajama bottoms, a long sleeve thermal shirt, throw on my giant jacket and rain or snow boots, depending on the whether. Really, I look dashing.
You may think I look a bit cuter when I go to work at the hotel. But sadly my uniform has morphed into corduroys, a sweater, and clogs. Clogs. Yesterday, because the hotel is shut down for the month of April, I wore old jeans, a sweatshirt, a fleece jacket, and my sister's Bogs. A perfect image of a Vermont farm girl.
So what did I wear Wednesday? Unfortunately I've been terribly sick since I returned home from my vacation so today I decided to not move from my bed and maybe I will magically recover. So I am wearing my UNH hospitality shirt (shout out to Christine!) and sweat pants. Pretty, eh?
When I was in Copenhagen I went out and did some errands with my brother, when he stepped into the bank I told him I'd wait outside. We were on the busiest street in Denmark - the busiest street for bikes that is - so it was people watching central. So many beautiful people in perfect outfits rode by on their cute, vintage looking bikes. I was in awe, a little jealous, and remembering fondly how I used to look on my adorable bike with its wicker basket, and my perfect outfits.
When I moved back to Vermont after living in Europe for over a year, I tried to maintain my style. But it was difficult. It was cold, the icy roads and parking lots made it impossible to wear heels. Dresses became out of the question after only a few weeks. Now that the snow has finally melted the mud prevents me from wearing anything but rubber boots. So I've fallen into the easy, "I don't care how I look" life of a northern Vermonter. In the beginning it kind of felt good, knowing I could wear anything and wouldn't be looked at with an unkind eye. I wore jeans I would never be seen in in Copenhagen. I wore hideous wool sweaters just because I knew it would keep more warm. I stopped caring.
But now I miss it. I miss my cute outfits. I have a pile of heels that go untouched. I yearn for last year when I was flitting around London in dresses and stilettos. But if I wore anything like that here, people would think I'm crazy. "Are you dressing up for the cows?" Sigh.
Just a month to go before I move back to a city!
Until then, old jeans and rubber boots.

The Silence of the Lambs
Strangely enough some elements of the plot have lost their shock value, its a shame when cannibalism and skinning people become cultural norms this movie will perhaps fail entirely to amaze, but until then it's easily one of the top 25 movies of all time. Jodie Foster's character is one of the best female characters I've seen in years, and of course Hannibal Lecter is an outstanding villain. What really makes this film stand out is the scenes between them, of which there are only 3 or 4, which have perhaps the best male/female interactions in the history of film. Lecter is only in about 20 minutes of the film, yet still deservedly won best actor, to give you an idea of how dominant his performance was. I'm still slightly partial to Heath Ledger's Joker, Anton Chigurh from No Country for Old Men, and Daniel Plainview from There Will Be Blood, but ultimately if I hadn't known what was going to happen I would probably have picked Lecter as my favorite villain I'd seen on film.
The general inter-connectivity of the film is also quite outstanding, Lecter says something to Clarice, every little thing is then portrayed in some reflective form in another scene, though this is essentially only told through camerawork. Lecter insinuates that Clarice was promiscuous, so when she arrives in West Virginia she's suddenly surrounded by 12-15 cops from the state of her birth and sort of wades around nervously throughout the scene. This is but one example, there are so many others. The major scenes of the film play out through foreshadowing with the camera as well, simply pay attention to where the camera focuses and it isn't terribly difficult to find out what will happen next. I obviously knew Lecter survived due to seeing the sequel, I just wasn't sure how but I spotted it fairly quickly.
If this film has a weakness it is that the secondary villain isn't nearly as impressive as Hannibal Lecter, though he does have one hilarious voice, and not being as grand as Lecter is hardly a severe criticism. It is somewhat unfortunate that the director seems to have dissipated since this film was released, but I guess everyone can't be as consistent as Christopher Nolan. The sequel(s) and the prequel are both far outclassed by this, though Hopkins once again delivers an outstanding performance.
Final Grade: 9.5/10

If you and your spouse plan to divorce soon, you may have many disagreements about your home, cars, and other valuables. You may even argue and disagree about obtaining custody of your children. But unlike the material things in your life, you shouldn't fight over your children. The constant altercations could affect your kids' mental, physical, and emotional health in ways you couldn't imagine. Here are reasons to leave your children out of your custody disagreements and what you can do instead.
How Can Your Disagreements Affect Your Children?
Children have the unique ability to soak in almost everything they see and hear. This gift allows children to learn about the world around them. But sometimes, children see and hear things that can negatively impact their lives, including arguments.
You and your divorcing spouse may each want full custody of your children. However, your children may actually benefit from having both parents in their lives. If your kids are old enough to express their feelings, they may have already made it clear about their needs and wants. If you or your divorcing spouse ignores the pleas of your children, it could cause chaos and strife in their lives. Some kids can act out or turn to substance abuse to help them get through their parents' divorce.
It's less stressful on your kids if you and your spouse come to an agreement that works best for them.
How Can You Settle Your Problems Amicably?
You can find common ground with the other parent through mediation. Mediation allows both parents to sit down and voice their concerns and opinions in a peaceful environment. A mediator or divorce attorney will supervise the meeting and help each party come to an amicable or mutual agreement. If problems still arise during the meeting, an attorney or mediator will suggest solutions for them.
It's important to be realistic and fair during the mediation phase of your divorce. Unless the other parent is abusive to your children, they still have rights to see and care for them. Once you get through the mediation phase, you and the other parent can develop a custody agreement that benefits your children.
You and the other parent should maintain the agreement as much as possible. If things do change in the future, consult with a divorce or child custody lawyer immediately. You don't want to confuse or alienate your children.
For more details about solving your custody problems, contact a divorce lawyer right away. Your children's future depends on it.Share

What is your teaching philosophy?
I believe that the student, rather than the subject, is the center of the learning experience. I don't plan to lean on a textbook and inundate students with something they might not be able to understand. I'm most interested in figuring out my student's approach to learning and working around that. I do not have a one-size-fits-all approach to my lessons.
What might you do in a typical first session with a student?
After introducing myself, I would ask the students a little about who they are and what they like. I would try to assess what they tend to focus on in conversation and use that as a foundation for how to design future lessons. I would establish some background on the subject at hand, and then lightly quiz them on topics tangential to the subject, so I can see where their strengths and weaknesses are and what I should begin working on with them. I would be prepared with some sort of material (a printout, a pamphlet, link to a video, etc.) for them to go over by themselves in preparation for our next lesson.
How can you help a student become an independent learner?
I would utilize some sort of external media for them to critically engage with and help them develop the skills to do this on their own. Some students, for example, learn better by reading in short sessions rather than long passages in one sitting. Some students learn more successfully by hands-on interaction rather than text reading. I hope to find what the student engages with most and help them apply those same principles to anything they might encounter in a classroom.
How would you help a student stay motivated?
I hope to encourage motivation by helping students set realistic goals while maintaining a flexible timetable, so that if a student does not meet expectations, we can adjust accordingly.
If a student has difficulty learning a skill or concept, what would you do?
I would try to come up with relatable examples that would allow the student to demonstrate and learn the skill dynamically. If It's proving particularly difficult to understand, I'll try to bring in as many related concepts as I can to place the subject in a broader context.
How do you help students who are struggling with reading comprehension?
I would help students break down passages into smaller components in order to analyze and recognize patterns in the text. Once the style of the text is assessed, it becomes easier to relate component concepts to each other as they reappear and transform throughout the passage.
What strategies have you found to be most successful when you start to work with a student?
I've found it important to get a reference for the particular skills and interests of the student. I like to let them first tell me what they already know, or what they already believe that they know, about the subject, and what they've found both the easiest and most difficult parts to learn were.
How would you help a student get excited/engaged with a subject that they are struggling in?
I would try to relate it to a subject they're already excited about. If a student can incorporate a new piece of information into an existing mental framework and make it useful to them, they're much more likely to want to know more and actively pursue the subject.
What techniques would you use to be sure that a student understands the material?
I would want to quiz them at frequent intervals to make sure they understand what we've covered, and if not, I'll be sure to slow down a bit until we've mastered it. I would also want them to demonstrate that they can apply and independently reproduce what they've learned rather than parrot what they've heard without taking it in.
How do you build a student's confidence in a subject?
By taking time out to appreciate progress made, and to make sure they understand how much what they've learned was built on the foundation of what they already knew.
How do you evaluate a student's needs?
I would ask them directly what they lack confidence in within a subject and try to understand why there's a gap in comprehension. The student is the best authority on their needs.
How do you adapt your tutoring to the student's needs?
I like to check in often about how they feel the tutoring is going, and if there's anything they feel I could do to help them in any way.

Kroger vs. Giant Eagle: the ultimate Bexley grocery showdown
Last week, I traveled to both the Kroger and Giant Eagle grocery stores near campus. I took notes on four different categories: service, cleanliness, parking and selection, and then gave both the stores an overall grade.
For the service category, I stood in an aisle with a worker already present. I then proceeded to search through a certain part of the aisle while looking confused, in hopes that the employee would ask if I needed assistance.
For cleanliness, I checked out debris on the floors and organization in the aisles, including products that were placed in the wrong section.
Although parking isn't an issue for some students, I drove to both of these locations, so I will also be reviewing that as well.
The selection category will include the range of product options and prices of these objects.
Finally, I will note any additional comments or things I noticed on the trip.
Service: Very friendly workers, and I had two of them come up to me asking if I needed any assistance.
Cleanliness: Had the occasional loose paper on the ground but seemed to have quite a few misplaced items.
Parking: Definitely the bigger parking lot of the two. I didn't have a problem finding a spot, and getting in and out wasn't difficult either.
Selection: Many options and cheap prices. I bought a bag of Kroger's generic brand tortilla chips for $1.49, which is very manageable for even the poorest of college students. As far as produce goes, Kroger offers both organic and regular options, allowing for the prospective buyer to choose how much money they would be willing to spend on fruits and vegetables.
Additional comments: I decided to check out with the self-checkout at both places, but during my Kroger visit the machine didn't give me my change. Of course, this isn't necessarily Kroger's fault exactly. However, they should still maintain proper care of their machines.
Overall grade: B
Giant Eagle Market District
Service: During my time there, I had many employees pass me while I was searching for products, but not one stopped.
Cleanliness: Floors were a lot cleaner and more organized than Kroger, but they still had a few items that weren't in the right location.
Parking: Very small parking lot and very hard to get in and out of. I had to sit for quite a while before I could pull out onto East Main Street. This may be less of a concern for students, though, because it is within a manageable walking distance from campus.
Selection: Not as many different products offered in a variety of brands. I ended up paying $4.99 for a small container of salsa, which would have cost me $2. 49 at Kroger. As I walked through the produce section, I also noticed a large amount of organic items.
Additional comments: Being a Starbucks lover, I really enjoy getting something before I start shopping, which could also be considered a con. I understand that there isn't much space for Giant Eagle to expand in Bexley, but sometimes having to walk up those stairs to the second floor when carrying a heavy load can be quite exhausting. Another important thing to add is that generally speaking, Giant Eagle's generic brand is more expensive than Kroger's.
Overall grade: C
Both Kroger and Giant Eagle do their job well in supplying products to the community. For any students looking to save money at either of these places, I would recommend getting their rewards card.
For the Giant Eagle Advantage card you get fuel points and coupons loaded straight to their app. The Kroger Plus card also offers fuel points and can earn you some very good discounts without having to coupon.

A year ago we lost the greatest plant collector I have known: Jim Archibald succumbed still in his sixties to cancer. Just as Horace erected his monuments in poetry, a plant collector leaves graceful footprints in our gardens through the wonderful plants he introduces: my gardens are positively cluttered with Archibaldiana. I have a special weakness for a dozen or more Turkish Salvia that have somehow escaped Plant Select (I know, we have S. daghestanica, but that was a Zetterlund collection). Chief among these is this lovely lavender cloudburst: Salvia cyanescens which I have treasured since the early 1980's, here photographed in front of the Succulent house at Denver Botanic Gardens where it is now reblooming (a wonderful trait in a plant). I scattered seed of this at my girlfriend, Jan Fahs', house and there hundreds--nay thousands--of plants of this salvia have made a virtual groundcover. I filled a garbage bag with their crispy (and intensely aromatic) seedheads a few weeks ago: very gratifying.
Here you can see the silky rosette of foliage. It looks for all the world like some sort of sexy gesneriad: a strangely delicate texture for a plant that thrives on heat and drought. I have grown this in several unwatered gardens where it thrives.
If you email me your snail mail address I will be happy to send you a plump packet of seed of this Turkish treasure: firstname.lastname@example.com. You will not regret it...a memento not merely of me, but of that Scottish prince of plant collectors, may his memory be eternal.
I regret however, I will not have enough seed to share of this gem (yet another Archibaldian Turkish salvia): Salvia pisidica really must get into Plant Select before too many more years. It is one of the most scrumptious and wonderful of garden plants and should be in every temperate garden (at least those blessed to be situated in steppe climates)....
This is a glimpse of an especially fine spread of Salvia pisidica in Mike Kintgen's gem of a garden I photographed in June.
There must be some compensation as one strolls through life being reminded of a friend through the plants he gave you, or (more accurately in this case) the plants you grew from seed he gathered. I summon the trim beard and the Edinburgh burr quite often, and the nasal tonalities of that extraordinary presence that shaped--still shapes--so many of my garden views. Our gardens gradually become repositories of these memories, and the very flowers are celebrations not just of their intrinsic beauty, but the associations surrounding, emanating and buzzing around them, sweet as their fragrance or sonorous as the busy bees.

In describing Bahá'í elections, Shoghi Effendi, through a letter written on his behalf, conveyed:
When called upon to vote in a Bahá'í election, believers should be aware that they are carrying out a sacred task unique to this Dispensation. They should approach this duty in a prayerful attitude, seeking divine guidance and confirmation. As Shoghi Effendi has advised, "they must turn completely to God, and with a purity of motive, a freedom of spirit and a sanctity of heart, participate in the elections." Through their wholehearted embrace of the Bahá'í electoral process, the believers will witness, day by day, a greater contrast between the emerging institutions of the Bahá'í Administrative Order and the decaying social order around them. In this increasing distinction will be seen the promise of the glory of the World Order of Bahá'u'lláh--the System destined to fulfil the highest expectations of humanity.

The 5 elements of actual physical fitness are often applied in our university devices, health clubs and fitness centers to gauge how good a form we are certainly in. The 5 elements that make up full fitness are:
Full fitness can be outlined by how perfectly the overall body performs in each and every a single of the elements of actual physical fitness as a entire. It is not more than enough to be in a position to bench push your overall body bodyweight. You also require to decide how perfectly you can take care of managing a mile etc.
A nearer appear at the unique elements:
Cardiovascular endurance is the capacity of the heart and lungs to get the job done alongside one another to supply the necessary oxygen and gasoline to the overall body for the duration of sustained workloads. Examples would be jogging, cycling and swimming. The Cooper Operate is applied most often to check cardiovascular endurance.
Muscular toughness is the amount of pressure a muscle can create. Examples would be the bench push, leg push or bicep curl. The force up check is most often applied to check muscular toughness.
Muscular endurance is the capacity of the muscle mass to accomplish constant without the need of fatiguing. Examples would be cycling, phase machines and elliptical machines. The sit up check is most often applied to check muscular endurance.
Overall flexibility is the capacity of each and every joint to transfer as a result of the obtainable vary of movement for a certain joint. Examples would be stretching unique muscle mass or the capacity to accomplish particular purposeful actions these types of as the lunge. The sit and access check is most often applied to check adaptability.
Physique composition is the amount of unwanted fat mass in comparison to lean muscle mass, bone and organs. This can be measured utilizing underwater weighing, Skinfold readings, and bioelectrical impedance. Underwater weighing is regarded the "gold common" for overall body unwanted fat measurement, on the other hand since of the dimensions and price of the machines necessary really couple of spots are established up to do this form of measurement.
Why the require for actual physical fitness screening?
As said previously the 5 elements of actual physical fitness signify how fit and healthy the overall body is as a entire. When you have the battery of checks executed you will receive facts on the certain areas you designed require to get the job done in. A really certain target oriented fitness system can be made from the check battery.
If overall body composition is of (greater unwanted fat in comparison to muscle mass) there are several health similar diseases and ailments you have a greater probability of contracting. It is crucial to incorporate healthy having behavior with your physical exercise system.
If you scored small on the cardiovascular check you would have a greater probability of getting at hazard for heart similar ailments and would not do perfectly with activities that need for a longer period situations to entire. You would take part in points these types of as extended bike rides, swimming and jogging for extended periods of time to right this part.

Location: Redmond
General contractor: Exxel Pacific
Owner/developer: Redmond 158th LLC
Primary designer: GGLO
Allez is a 147-unit residential and retail development in downtown Redmond.
The site is situated adjacent to the Sammamish River, atop Redmond's shallow groundwater aquifer, making erosion-control and dewatering planning critical. By working closely with its consultants, Exxel was able to implement an effective dewatering system with minimal cost to its client.
Surface water was collected and treated in settlement tanks prior to discharge to sewer structures. Site water discharge was also connected to an air-entrainment system to increase oxygen levels prior to discharge into the Sammamish River.
Due to the project's design, proper fall protection was a challenge for the project team. Rolling scaffold towers and the construction of a large "dance floor" scaffold provided a safe work platform.
The project had no time-loss or recordable injuries. One worker did suffer a heart attack, but the project team was well-prepared and worked perfectly in notifying local EMTs. The fire department captain said that he had never seen such a well-planned and executed response, and that he was certain that was reason for the worker's survival. The worker is doing well today.
All of the project's completion dates and goals were met, including occupancies, tenant move-in commitments and Built Green three-star certification. Through monitored budget controls, Exxel was also able to return over $300,000 in savings to the owner.
Allez was also honored as the winner of a 2014 Built Green Hammer Award and was a finalist for NAIOP development of the year.

10 Reasons to Be a Bull, From a Stock Market Bear.
10 Reasons to Be a Bull, From a Stock Market Bear
Published: Friday, 15 Jun 2012 | 11:27 AM ET Text Size
By: Jeff Cox
CNBC.com Senior Writer
Finding reasons not to like the current stock market doesn't take much work, as the faltering U.S. economy, European debt crisis and looming fiscal cliff makes the job pretty easy.
But devising a list to be bullish — after one dismisses the usual "stocks are cheap" and "best house in a bad neighborhood" platitudes — takes some work, especially if your natural inclination is that the market is heading lower.
Nicholas Colas, the ConvergEx chief market strategist and principal wordsmith — his daily research notes are quite likely the most colorful on Wall Street — showed Friday that he's up to the task.
While qualifying that "I personally sympathize with the bearish outlook" for stocks, Colas composed a David Letterman-style Top 10 list that makes a cogent case for the other side.
"For the numerous potential macro dangers that make asset managers go all deer-in-the-headlights, there are some positive fundamentals out there," he said. "Most reside in the U.S. economy, but a few live further afield."
The list:
10. Corporations are managing risk and doing more with less. Yes, a form of the "stocks are cheap" argument, but with acknowledgement that a pullback in earnings would still leave companies in solid shape profit-wise.
9. Consumer confidence is still high. Friday's numbers indicated that consumer sentiment is beginning to wane, but remains strong.
8. Gas prices are trending lower. Sure, $3.52 a gallon is still high, but it's 20 cents lower than last month.
7. Forget Facebook, the capital markets are still open "if highly selective." The social network's initial public offering was a flop, but other deals, including Thursday's Felda Global Ventures $3.1 billion IPO, are raising cash.
6. Mortgage rates still falling. Home borrowing rates at record lows are dragging the industry off its bottom.
5. Mom-and-pop investors are making money, but with bonds. While we've been bemoaning all those fund flows out of equities and into fixed income, it's worked out well for the retail crowd, which now has money it can use to buy stocks.
4. The "Self-Correcting Election." Colas sees the presidential race between President Obama and Mitt Romney as a win-win: If Romney wins, the market gets a market-friendly president; if Obama wins it's because the economy has recovered sufficiently to justify his re-election.
3. China is OK, at worst. Despite the talk about a hard-landing, that would still entail 7.5 percent or so growth. Not bad.
2. Lots of Bears. High levels of market sentiment in either direction are generally considered contrarian signals. The mass of doubters indicates that market still has room to rise.
And…the top reason for being bullish:
1. "The end of the world only happens once — Monday probably isn't the day."
Through recessions and depressions, flashes and crashes, we seem to persevere. "For all the well-publicized challenges facing markets and investors, financial Armageddon is still an unlikely occurrence," Colas writes. "And even if it does happen, what are the chances you really have enough gold coins, freeze-dried food and double-aught buckshot anyway?
"It is OK to prepare for disasters; just make sure you plan for success as well."

|Udena Vatthu:The story cycle of King Udena,in many respects the most interesting of all the stories of the Dhammapada Commentary (DhA,i.161-231).
It consists of six stories of diverse origin and character,dealing with the fortunes of the king,his three queen-consorts and his treasurer.
Only two of the stories are really concerned with Udena,the rest being introduced by familiar literary devices.Versions of each of the six stories occur in the writings of Buddhaghosa,indicating that they go back to a common source.
Parallels to one or more stories are also to be found in the Divyāvadāna,the Kathāsaritsāgara and other Sanskrit collections and in the Tibetan Kandjur.
For an analysis of the cycle and its parallels see Burlinghame,Bud.Legends,i.,pp.51 and 62ff.

BMW's 3 Series is the quintessential sports sedan. Despite more and stronger competition from Mercedes, Audi, Infiniti and even Cadillac, the 3 remains the target they are all shooting for. Over the years and ongoing model generations, the 3 Series has evolved by offering just about any body style that buyers may want, including sedan, coupe, wagon, convertible and hatchback. To better compete against Audi's A4 Quattro's, BMW makes the all-wheel-drive xi models, the 325xi (in sedan or wagon) and the 330xi (sedan only).
The xi's use a version of the all-wheel drive system that's in the X5, with power split 38% front and 62% rear. In slippery conditions, power is diverted to the wheels with the greatest traction through a version of BMW's Dynamic Stability Control system, known as DSC-X. Both 5-speed manual and 5-speed automatic transmissions are available in the xi models. Most importantly, the 330xi has the same excellent 3-liter engine that's in the 330i, which delivers 225hp and does it in a linear and butter-smooth fashion. It's simply one of the best (maybe the best) 6-cylinder engine on the market today. The extra hardware in the 330xi we tested adds an extra 198-lbs in weight compared to the standard 330i, at 3,483-lbs. With that extra weight, the 330xi takes a half-second longer to get to 60mph, at 6.9-seconds vs. 6.4-seconds in the 330i. The higher ride height of the 330xi also makes it stand almost an inch taller than the 330i.

Hello, Lotus Land (and lotusland, if that's where you're at)
Since I've been working with Notes (starting with 4.x) I've learned so much from those who have contributed to forums (notes.net) and maintained blogs (way too many to list). The knowledge-sharing community has been an invaluable resource in my learning and development over the years, but never more so than with the XPages learning curve.
I used to write a lot of articles in the days of Lotus Advisor and answer questions for the original incarnation of SearchDomino.com, but haven't published anything recently. So, with plenty of inspiration from my prolific colleagues (currently at PSC and previously at GBS), I think it's time for me to resume contributing back to the community.
I've got a stash of XPages Tips and Tricks that I've learned and documented for myself, so I'm looking forward to using this outlet to share them and, hopefully, help shorten the learning curve a bit for others.
Please follow along and let me hear your feedback!

Tax reform: taking away benefits of 401(k) retirement account?
Posted on 10/24/2017
In news over the weekend, there is said to be a provision in the Republican tax reform draft that will severely reduce the amount an individual can contribute to his or her 401(k) retirement account on a tax-free basis. The reasons behind this proposal are a bit complicated and the results are dependent on individuals' tax situations as well as the growth rate of their retirement accounts.
What it apparently boils down to is 401(k) plans put the tax benefit up front by enabling taxpayers to reduce their current tax rates. But when the funds are withdrawn, they are fully taxable at the taxpayer's then-existing tax rate. This "future" tax exemption is felt by some to be preferable because most taxpayers will be in a lower tax bracket then than they are today.
The proposal reportedly being considered by the Republican leadership in the House would limit the amount 401(k) retirement account holders can contribute on a tax-free basis. The limit is said to be $2,400. Current law allows these retirement account holders to contribute up to $18,000 if you're under 50. If you're over 50, you can make an additional catch-up contribution of as much as $6,000, for a total of up to $24,000.
President Trump tweeted Monday morning that "there will be no change in the current 401(k) rules on the tax-favored treatment of 401(k) retirement accounts."
Tax deductions for 401(k) contributions cost the Treasury about $115 billion a year.
