Finally, A proper title has been developed that takes place on the all to unstable continent of Africa.
Being Africans ourselves means that our experience of FarCry 2 was always going to be different to those who have never had the chance to see Africa with their own two eyes. Ubisoft Montreal took on a monster of a task when they decided to base such a massive shooter in the African Bush.
So the question is, how does it stack up as a shooter and do the locals approve at their attempt to recreate our massive backyard.
T.I.A (This is Africa)
As previously mentioned, Far Cry 2 is based in Africa, a setting that we are all too familiar with. Spend nothing less than a few minutes in the game and you will easily start to see that a hell of a lot of effort has been put into the setting. If you want Africa, then that's what you can expect.
Be it the sounds of familiar birds in the trees, the sunset over the veld or the banter of the Afrikaans mercenaries in the guard posts, you are going to be amazed at exactly how much detail has been added into this game to make it feel like a true African experience, the environment nearly steals the show entirely.
This game is absolutely massive and will have you romping through savannah, deserts, jungle and woodlands spread over fifty square kilometers of pure African landscape. It's like visiting the Kruger National Park, except with guns, lots of guns.
The Devil wears Khaki
The entire story behind Far Cry 2 is fairly simple. You are a mercenary from another land who has been sent to Africa to hunt down an arms dealer called the Jackal. The Jackal is profiting heavily by supplying both sides and in doing so, is helping the killing and bloodshed continue. Upon arriving in Africa, you contract malaria, which forces you to constantly have to look out for medicine to prevent you from meeting your untimely fate. You will run into two major factions in the game and it will be up to you to play them against each other so that you can complete your objective.
Although the story is fairly different, you wouldn't be wrong to think that this game will you give you a lot the same feeling you got when watching Blood Diamond.
Gooi n bietjie backup okie
The game includes quite a few mercenaries from all over the world. When you begin, you choose which of them you want to be. The ones that you do not choose still populate the world allowing you to interact with them, do missions and become your buddies.
The buddy system works as follows. One of the characters will become your 'best buddy', who will help you with missions by giving you easier methods or alternate approaches. Your second best buddy is the one who bails you out when you get into trouble. If you get 'killed' in battle and your second best buddy is available, they will come and pull you out of the mess you have made and help you clear out the enemies in the area.
Be warned though, any of your buddies get hurt and you are unable to heal them or choose to put them out of their misery then they can die, for good.
Locked and loaded
When it comes down to gameplay, Far Cry 2 is a true shooter at it's core. The type of shooter that's weapons feel so solid and the action so intense that it reminds of those good old days when gaming meant nothing but playing FPS games on your PC.
If you are still wondering what type of game Far Cry 2 is, then let me explain. On the most basic level, this game is a sandbox FPS shooter. It feels as if it is the culmination of a few different games that you have already played and at the same time, something unique. Although I don't like comparing one game to another, there are a few titles that popped into my mind whilst playing. Imagine taking Grand Theft Auto, mixing it together with a pinch of Assassin's Creed, one tablespoon of The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion and then mixing it together with a cup of Crysis.
There is something that I need to explain about this game though and I suggest that if you are interested in this game then you pay attention. Far Cry 2 is not about the amazing story, it's not about meeting interesting people and finding loot. This game may come across as a sort of role playing game, but as I said earlier, this game is a die-hard shooter through and through. Buy it if you like shooting at things, a lot, because you will be.
The Great Trek
While you will do many missions, the truth is that most of them involve the following formula. Get mission, travel somewhere, kill anything that moves. At first I felt slightly disappointed with the "samey" feeling of all the missions but slowly over time, I started to realise why the game was created the way it was.
While I am not a fan of developers relying too much on their tech-wizardy to make a game feel fun, it is the exact reason why Far Cry 2 is a real treat to any shooter fan. The varied landscapes of the African continent as well as the full day/night cycles, dynamic weather, amazing fire propagation and arsenal of weapons are everything in this game. I realised that I didn't really mind that so many missions were similar, the sheer difference that the locations and environmental differences made meant that every single repetitive mission played out in a completely different way.
The fact that there are just so many different ways to approach missions means that the game never truly feels like it is stagnating. You can try the stealth approach, using silenced MP5's and long range dart rifles. Not your thing? How about bringing the fight straight to the suckers with grenade launchers, automatic rifles, RPG's and a ton of molotov cocktails.
Make a choice and face the consequences
It really is up to you. The action can get so incredibly intense as the AI cleverly move to flank you and catch you off guard more than you would expect. On the other hand, the first time you manage to silently take out an entire guard post without attracting any attention or alerting any other soldiers, you will feel a deep sense of pride and accomplishment.
I say it again, Far Cry 2 is a shooter, put into a setting that allows you to play as much as you want and experiment with different ways to accomplish goals. With such a huge setting and so many main and side mission to do, you are looking at more than 50 hours to complete the game. So if you are looking for a fun shooter that you can pick up and play for a long time to come, here it is.
Multiplayer and the Map Editor
The game also features full multiplayer modes that include deathmatch, team deathmatch as well as few others that resemble capture the flag and a pretty interesting mode that is essentially a mixture of 'Protect the VIP" and "Take and Hold". While the multiplayer is quite a lot of fun and plays fairly similarly to the formula seen in the Call of Duty franchise, it does come across as quite obvious that the single player game was the main focus of the developers.
Locals will be happy to know that the netcode on Far Cry 2's multiplayer is very similar to Bad Company, meaning that you can join international games and still enjoy a basically lag free game. Bonus!
But wait, there's more. The map editor. If you haven't already read about the map editor in the countless amounts of Far Cry 2 previews available, including ours, available > here, then let me give you a quick run through.
Ubisoft Montreal has managed to make an incredibly simple to use map editor that ships standard with every version of the game. The controls are simple and require no techy knowledge to use. All of the elements in the map editor are taken straight from the disc, which means that they can be easily shared over Xbox Live and PSN because of their small file size because essentially all that other players will be doing will be downloading the configuration settings and placement info.
The map editor really gives the ability to create, or even recreate levels easily. Jump into a multiplayer game that has a custom map and you will be asked if you want to download it. Say yes and you will have it in a minute or so and can jump straight in. At the end of the map, you can rate it if you want and then decide to keep it or dump it. It really is quite spectacular and could very well be the reason that a lot of people keep going back to the multiplayer. At the time of writing, I have already seen remade versions of COD4's undergrowth, Quake III levels as well as a very lame attempt at Gears of War's Gridlock.
My African Dream
What you get at the end of the day is an incredibly huge, immersive, action packed and absolutely gorgeous looking shooter.
With smooth and stunning visuals, amazing sound and the fact that you will never ever leave the first person view, you really will feel like it is you standing under a tree in the African veld, stinking like something that died a few days prior.
Gameplay: 8.5/10 [Solid as a rock. You can almost feel the gun firing in your hand] Presentation: 9/10 [ A truly magnificent setting, amazing visuals and aesthetics all round] Sound: 9.5/10 [ "Skiet daai Bliksem!" Arguably one of the most impressive elements in the game] Value: 9/10 [ 50+ hour campaign, Multiplayer and a Map Editor. Well worth your money ]
Overall: 9/10 [A solid shooter wrapped in a magnificent setting]

We asked folks in our community what they marked as an important moment in their journey that helped them connect with their empathy for animals and go veg.
Everyone has a different story, including you, and we hope that their words help motivate you to take the next step in your journey and stick with it!
Kristin Robinson
I had been eating really minimal amounts of meat before this simply because I didn't like the taste. But, this last summer, I became more and more exposed to vegan environmentalists. I watched a video, by Hannah Shaw, discussing her work in kitten rescue and why society treats farm animals so differently from companion animals. This suddenly made me realize that I had been passively consuming meat my whole life without considering how much I truly loved these animals I had eaten. I sobbed for the horrors that these animals go through every day and what I had done to them. I vowed to go vegan immediately.
Jessica Burks
I was a vegetarian for many years, and I was drawn to veganism when I learned that cows, like all mammals, only produce milk in response to pregnancy. (I grew up thinking that cows just made milk—because that's what cows were "for.") As a very passionate feminist, I was motivated to go from vegetarian to vegan because of my strong belief in body autonomy—I don't believe that animals bodies exist to produce dairy and egg products, and I believe that it is a gross violation of animals' rights to have their bodies used and exploited for profit.
Jenell Holden
I watched the movie Year of the Dog.
Lucia Skinner De Gregorio
In my studies—which revolved around gender, feminism, and sexuality—I explored the nature of hierarchies. The idea really resonated with me that the foundation upon which hierarchies are altogether built is the idea that the human species is inherently more valuable than any and all other life. It so happened that as I was exploring this realization, I was diving deeper into the intricacies of intimacy as they evolve in one's relationship to an animal companion, my dog Mona. It became quickly apparent to me that I could no longer reconcile my authentic and wholehearted love for her with my consumption of and disrespect for other nonhuman life. The peace of mind that follows taking the steps toward a more compassionate life is a beautiful thing. I've been meat-free for two years and vegan for a year and a half, and have never looked back.
Tenaya Egbert
My mother told me what meat really is, and that I had a vegetarian uncle. I decided that night to push my meatballs to the side of my plate and become the first vegetarian in my family or school. I was 5.
I would be an adult before I learned the truth of how animals are treated to produce milk and eggs.
Rae Hermeier
Initially, when I became vegan, it was for health reasons. I was overweight, and a person I follow on YouTube ate a vegan diet six days a week to help her stay healthy, so I thought I'd give it a shot. I ended up losing about 60 pounds total over a couple of years! During that time, I was eating plant-based during the week, and eating animal products on the weekends. But as I researched recipes and vegan videos on YouTube, I started coming across videos on animal welfare. I remember specifically watching one called "Farm to Fridge" and I remember being so horrified at the treatment of the animals (especially the pigs really got to me), that I decided I couldn't ever eat animal products again. I already didn't have any animal products at home, I only ate them when I went out to eat, so it was actually a fairly simple transition for me.
Abraham Rowe
I think for me, while I'd been interested in veganism long before this, I worked at a farm sanctuary during the school year and summer in college and realized how amazing so many animals are!
Shannon Kimball
After attempting to reason with me for a few months my girlfriend Lisa, who I married, showed me pictures of a goat on a farm in Mexico getting surgery without painkillers. The people were reaching into the laceration they created. The goat was immobilized and held up by metal bars so if he passed out from the pain he wouldn't collapse or otherwise move too much. I hadn't realized before just how low in regard animals were held. I started to understand at that point that when animals are viewed as commodities, profit margins would always pose a challenge to proper care or even common decency. I didn't know it was this bad. Once we read Peter Singer's Animal Liberation I started doing my part to remove the profit motive that leads people to harm animals in the first place by working my way toward a plant-based diet and the rest is history, along with that leather jacket.
Suzy Sorensen
A vegetarian friend invited me along to a PETA seminar here in the Cities (nearly 20 years ago). That first opened my eyes to what happens to animals and the choices I can make to reduce suffering. That's where I connected with CAA! My "aha moment" was very shortly after that. We were visiting friends in Florida and happened to be there for lobster season: a few days when scuba diving for lobsters is allowed. Essentially, a hunting season. I was able to catch a lobster (the guilt is as present today as it was then). When we got to the dock, the idea was to twist the animal in half, separating head (thrown away) from tail (the desirable part to eat). I could not, would not ever do that. That was it. If I couldn't kill an animal to eat it, I would not have someone else do it for me and pretend that was ok. That up-close experience with an animal headed for the plate made compassionate eating immediate, personal, and real to me. I sometimes say a lobster changed my life! And I'm grateful.
Maya Ulrich
I was drawn to veganism because of its environmental sustainability. I knew I wanted to do as much as I could to reduce my carbon footprint, and I love animals!
Susan Hoppe
I came to vegan through health but realizing how we treat animals, as food, or as pack animals or doing tricks to please us has always been on my mind. As a child, I was brought to the circus. When animals came out a snap of the whip almost made me cry. I kept asking if I could see the animals after and I was taken back and there they were, tethered and in tiny cages. I thought about our family dog, who did sit and lay and shake but had a much larger area to live. I didn't know who trained our dog, as I was very young. However, I don't eat lions, tigers, bears or dogs, so I happily munched on whatever my mother served us, hot dogs, hamburgers, meat, meat, meat.
As an adult, I watched a show about a normal family pig farm. In this show, they actually talked to a scientist who talked about how they genetically modified pig muscles to go from pink, to white and back to pink. That show turned me off of pigs. My SO at the time told me if I knew how my food was treated I wouldn't be able to eat anything. I didn't realize at the time that my SO was so correct. This was before GMO stuff.
After I gave up pig, I got cancer, and all meat tasted bad. I stopped eating eggs, and finally, let go of cheese. Now I eat plant-based and live vegan.
Yash Patel
I was attending the University of Minnesota for undergrad. One of my friends recently went vegan and I was already vegetarian primarily for environmental reasons. My friend for months was talking to me about their moral reasons for going vegan. They were doing this again at an event called sustunes, an event with environmentally focused student groups. I thought their arguments were compelling but also seemed to put them in the back of my mind once our conversations were over. After the event was over, some friends and I were roaming around the Saint Paul campus late at night. The Saint Paul campus has a lot of farm animals since the agriculture majors utilize them. Still being young and hooligans we decided to hop over the fence around where the cows were kept to get a closer look. Looking at the cows through these metal bars they were kept behind was a different feeling than ever before. I didn't just see an 'animal' anymore, I saw a living being.
Karrie Vrabel
There were many moments as a young child of not understanding why herbivores were hunted. I always loved animals but the first vegetarian that I knew was my first H.S. boyfriend and Morrissey. Knowing they existed created a path of dedication for me. It was definitely frowned upon in my Wisconsin German family. Living in alignment with my values is the best decision I've ever made.
Tamra Falk
I was reading Diet for A New America and realized I could not nourish myself with the suffering of others.
Godan Nambudiripad
This is a story my father told me. He was sitting near his mother one evening. A mosquito landed on his arm and started what it does. My father whacked it with his other hand. Then his mother, my grandmother, asked him: "Son, why don't you let that small mosquito have a drop of your blood. It needs food too."
Kara Barr
It wasn't a singular moment but happened over time. I chose to reduce meat/dairy for health reasons after watching Forks Over Knives. I had always thought that it was sad that we had to kill animals for our food, but I truly thought it was necessary for our survival, so I didn't think much about it. The less meat and dairy I ate, the more and more aware I became to animal suffering. I think that when you're consuming animals, you have to have a level of cognitive dissonance so that you can keep going about your day. For me, it was important to FIRST reduce my intake of meat/dairy before my brain would allow me to realize the atrocities of the animal industry.
Abbigail Feola
One change came for me when I was looking up information online, and learned that the dairy and egg industries also kill the animals they use. One moment was when my dog died, and my sadness over her illness and death didn't make sense to me in the context of my eating so many animal products. My emotions felt inconsistent.
Elizabeth Mann
When I was about four years old and I experienced the first death of a close family member. I realized that all of the meat I had been eating meant that animals had to die like my grandfather, for no reason! It took me another 14 years to turn this moment into a commitment to becoming vegan!
Amy Lenien
I was vegetarian for over ten years, thinking I wasn't harming animals. When I said in an online forum "I don't eat any'thing' with a face," a blunt online vegan told me about the victims of the dairy and egg industries. I went vegan immediately.
I began rescuing abandoned chickens soon after. I have five companion chickens, volunteer at Rooster Redemption, and Chicken Run Rescue.
Liz Pearson
I received a Speciesism leaflet from a CAA volunteer at the Cat Video Festival. I've been a cat advocate for years, and all the sudden I felt like a hypocrite. How could I care more about one species than another? That pushed me to start adopting a plant-based diet.
Theresa Zingery
My aha moment came when I became a vegetarian. I was in the Peace Corps and was walking to and from my activities past a market where the animals were alive when I went there in the morning and when I walked past on the way home their dead carcasses were hanging up with fleas on them. It brought home that the food that I used to eat which was sanitized for me in a cellophane package from the store was actually from an animal that lived and had feelings. This was supported by readings I did like Diet for a New America which had a huge impact in the new context.
Sheri Olson
There were two things that started the process. I've always loved animals and had been very involved helping with a pet rescue when I owned my bookstore. One of my staff members one day made a comment (she was vegetarian) something about that she was surprised that I still ate meat considering my love for animals. I think we were looking at vegetarian/vegan cookbooks or something. I didn't really understand the comment at the time, but it stuck with me. Then a little while later I was watching one of my favorite TV show's, Bones with vegan Emily Deschanel. They had an episode on there where they talked about how baby chicks had the ends of their beaks cut off so they wouldn't peck each other to death when they were in such confined quarters when they were being raised to be killed. I couldn't get that image out of my head. I had already stopped eating pork a while back and now I couldn't eat chicken. Shortly after that, I made the decision to go vegetarian. At the time, I just didn't think I could ever give up eggs and cheese. After about two weeks of being vegetarian, I knew I had to be vegan for the animals. I went vegan a month after that. That was 4 1/2 years ago. I could never go back to eating animals. I heard someone say once, that we are eating an animal for the pleasure of one meal and they have given their entire life. That thought haunts me. When people ask why I am vegan I show them my tattoo – For the Animals.

Who we are
Commercial Water is a high-purity water treatment company that serves the medical, commercial, and industrial business communities of greater Kansas City. Our clients are diverse and range from hospital ICU's to high-tech manufacturing and chemical manufacture.
We began in March 2003 out of a desire to provide honest and forthright business dealings with customers coupled with unrivaled customer service. The company underwent an expansion in 2009 and installed an ion-exchange regeneration plant at our Northtown, Kansas City facility, giving us more control over the timing of our service and quality of our resin.
How we have evolved
For more than 10 years, Commercial Water has met the needs for on-site water treatment by using a variety of methods, including carbon-bed filtration, ion-exchange purification, reverse-osmosis, ultraviolet light sanitation, and water softening. The company gives customized service to each account based on in-coming water quality and the specific product water they require. Our reputation for reliability has won a loyal base of customers. These customers' word-of-mouth endorsements have created a steady upward growth trend for the company and a personally satisfying place to work for its owners and team members.
One word used to define Commercial Water is "Integrity." Integrity sets us apart from other small businesses in that it is our guiding principle to treat others as we wish to be treated. It means doing the little extra things that may be overlooked by the customer, but which are important to doing each job right. We provide a decidedly "human" element to the esoteric realm of commercial and industrial water treatment by solving problems for people and deriving real satisfaction from providing solutions.
What does integrity mean to us?
We take ownership over the entirety of each job. Doing so reflects Commercial Water's degree of commitment to doing what is right. Although the average customer will not have the hawkish standards we exercise, the job must not only function optimally, but it must also look good. The plumbing and equipment must be level and precise. Our standards dictate the customers' complete satisfaction with their water system, which to us includes all the subtle markers of a job done by professionals.
Delivering just the water you need
Along the same lines, we practice integrity with forthright pricing when bidding a new job. Commercial Water practices common sense when "sizing" the system so the customer achieves the right water flow rate and water quality without paying for more than they need. We know that if the system is sized correctly, the customer will experience fewer problems with their water system. They can avoid the expense of future service calls and capital expenses to upgrade an inadequate system. Conversely, the customer can also avoid the expense and inefficiency of operating an oversized system. Fewer dollars will be spent with Commercial Water, but we feel that our reputation for trustworthiness will win repeat business in the future.

How can library address information be added to the hold delete letter?
- Article Type: Q&A
- Product: Aleph
- Product Version: 20
How can library address information be added to the hold delete letter?
The form ./xxxnn/form_lng/hold-delete-letter.xsl by default already contains sublibrary address information.
Additional Information
The following setup should enable the printout of sublibrary address information.
These are the default definitions
a) form ./form_lng/hold-delete-letter.xsl contains a reference to funcs.xls and the template sublib-address
<xsl:include href="funcs.xsl"/>
Note: funcs.xsl contains the templates
<xsl:template name="section-01">
<xsl:call-template name="sublib-address"/>
b) ./form_lng/funcs.xsl contains a reference to table funcs-address.xsl
<xsl:include href="funcs-address.xsl"/>
c) ./form_lng/funcs-address.xsl contains the actual definition of the address
<xsl:template name="sublib-address">

<xsl:call-template name="table-start-row"/>	<xsl:value-of select="//sub-library-address-1-occ1"/>	<xsl:call-template name="table-end-row"/>
The address information is being taken from
a) ./xxx50/tab/tab_sub_library_address.lng
(lng = language, e.g. 'eng', depending on the language of the patron)
b) if the above table is not present in the tab directory of the ADM library, the system will look for this file in ./alephe/tab
Which address is taken for the form is defined in ./xxx50/tab/form_sub_library_address
Example of ./xxx50/tab/form_sub_library_address
hold-delete-letter-s 2
hold-delete-letter 2
In the example the hold-delete-letter will take address type 2 of the relevant sublibrary of table tab_sub_library_address.lng ( (defined in col. 2)
Example of tab_sub_library_address.eng for sublibrary MEDUC.

Omer Aziz wrote an essay critical of Sam Harris, so Harris decided to use his podcast to cross-examine Aziz. Aziz agreed and subjected himself to a 4 hour scolding. Then, Harris decided he wasn't going to post the podcast.
So I accepted his offer and every onerous condition that came with it. Once again, all the terms were set by him: I would have to read the essay word for word, he could stop me whenever he wanted, I could not record the talk, and Harris reserved the right not to air it if it was "boring"—a standard to be defined only by him, and only after the fact.
A few weeks later, I was surprised then to find the following email in my inbox:
I just listened to our recorded conversation, and I'm sorry to say that I can't release it as a podcast. Even if I took the time to edit it, I wouldn't be doing either of us any favors putting it out there. The conversation fails in every way — but, most crucially, it fails to be interesting.
Better luck next time…
The self-righteous salutation at the end was the richest part of this otherwise self-serving note. Exactly who was Sam Harris protecting in this flagrant and sanctimonious act of expurgation? Certainly not me. Certainly not his listeners. He was protecting himself, because what he said in those four hours was as extreme and belligerent and ignorant as anything he has ever written.

ATP SYDNEY and AUCKLAND: Marcos Baghdatis wins in Sydney, David Ferrer and Feliciano Lopez upset in Auckland
by RONNIE REAR | VIEW 3212
The last two ATP tournaments in Sydney and Auckland before the Australian Open are moving towards their business end. Both tournaments have seen some dramatic moments and Wednesday's action was no different. Here's a quick recap: ATP Sydney Second Round Eighth seed Marcel Granollers was upset by Dan Evans.
He was the only seed who was upset in the day's play. Fifth seed Philipp Kohlschreiber defeated Australian wild card Jordan Thompson and Andrey Kuznetsov reached the quarter-finals when Alex de Minaur retired before the start of the second set.
At the time of his retirement, de Minaur had lost the first set to the Russian 2-6. Fourth seed Pablo Carreno Busta defeated Mischa Zverev and fifth seed Viktor Troicki defeated Paolo Lorenzi. Gilles Muller, the sixth seed also advanced to the quarter-finals.
World no. 8 Dominic Thiem also reached the quarter-finals defeating Portuguese qualifier Gastao Elias. ATP Auckland Second Round David Ferrer, the defending champion and third seed, was upset in the second round by Robin Haase, who overcame a one-set deficit to play in the quarters.
Ferrer's countryman Feliciano Lopez also forfeited his place in the tournament having needed to withdraw from the tournament with a back injury. Lopez pulling out of the tournament gave Jeremy Chardy a place in the quarters.
Eighth seed Marcos Baghdatis defeated German qualifier Dustin Brown. In the match between two Americans, fourth seed Jack Sock defeated qualifier Ryan Harrison. Second seed John Isner defeated Malek Jaziri and seventh seed Steve Johnson defeated Yen-Hsun Lu.

How do you cope when it feels as if life is throwing too much at you at once?
We can often feel pulled in so many directions that it makes it difficult to handle one thing much less the avalanche of issues headed towards us.
How our minds chose to respond to the growing list of problems dictates the quality of our lives and our happiness levels during these intense times, so it's well worth learning a few steps for making this as manageable as possible.
How did we get here?
When life becomes unmanageable and you just want to hide under a rock someplace, you are experiencing stress and overwhelm.
Overwhelm is the side effect of PRESSURE.
One or both of the following is happening during overwhelm.
- One: Your mind is pressuring you to do something, or
- Two: Someone outside of you is pressuring you to do something.
We think the uncontrollable circumstances outside of us are creating the overwhelm when in reality it is our pressure creating thoughts about the circumstances outside of us that is creating the overwhelm.
If you are stressed to the max, let's dedicate the next 5 days to turning things around.
DAY 1: Press pause and rescue yourself from the chaos.
- Stop what you are doing, thinking, planning, etc.. and shift your focus over the next 3 days to one of relief and relaxation. Let it all go.
This first step maybe the most challenging for most of you, but you will need to slow the momentum of the overwhelm and begin to recover by pressing pause on life for the next 3 days. You will need this time to recover from the negative effects the overwhelm has created in your body, mind, spirit, and life.
DAY 2: Allow relaxation and recovery time.
- Do three things today that feel easy or that bring relaxation to your body.
As you shift your focus to things that bring you relief, comfort, and relaxation, you may continue to struggle with the concept of ease.
It is important to go easy on yourself.
You and your body have been through a lot. I promise the world will go on without you in it for another two days.
DAY 3: Allow ease into your life.
- Begin with the space you spend the most amount of time in and reclaim this space as your Calm Container.
- Minimize and organize the items in this space. No clutter please. Remember your outer space is a reflection of what is going on and being allowed to intrude upon your inner space or your mind.
This will take focus, practice, and consistency, but begin letting your mind know, that from here on out, you are creating a calm container around your life. This calm container will only consist of things that bring ease, simplicity, and joy to your life.
DAY 4: Adopt the "No Pressure" mentality.
Train yourself to recognize the signs of pressure and overwhelm creeping back into your life.
- Can you recognize when your mind is beginning to make "big deals" or complicate things?
- Can you recognize when others are placing unnecessary pressure on you?
DAY 5: Know your Calm Container boundaries.
Learn to protect and prevent your "Calm Container" boundaries from pressure intruders.
Identify everything and every thought that creates pressure in your life and begin the important process of eliminating them from your calm container. Think back to your most recent experience with overwhelm.
- Can you trace it back to where it began?
- Were you creating the pressure or was the pressure being created by another person?
- Were you managing your calm container and allowing ease in?
- Did you say yes when in reality you did not have the time or resources necessary to take on a new idea or responsibility?
If you would benefit from "The 5 Day Calm" Guided Meditations or would love to learn more techniques for living a life free from unnecessary stress and pressure, check out The 5 Day Calm You2 Masterclass here.

LAST year, Illustrado Magazine released an issue featuring 100 of the hottest Filipino designers around the globe.
This lifestyle-community magazine published in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, acknowledged the names of Michael Cinco, Furne One and Ezra Santos, who were dubbed as the "Fashion's Holy Trinity," which is not surprising as these fashion designers are well-known for their works and the fact that they have dressed countless Filipino celebrities and Hollywood stars.
Cagayan de Oro City, where several talented artists are born, won't let itself be left behind as Kagay-anon-born Jugger Onate makes herself and her glamorous designs known in the global stage.
Blue-blooded designer
Began as a creative kid with a knack for design, Onate developed her talent through simply draping fabrics and turning them into dresses for her cousins and playmates.
"It has always been my lifelong dream and passion to become a fashion designer. I am an artist myself, creativity runs through my veins," Onate, in an exclusive interview with SunStar Cagayan de Oro, said.
However, it was in grade school to high school that Onate, like a true blue-blooded Atenean, harnessed her skills to the fullest.
"Being an Atenean means you are to push your full potential as a young person. In college, I have pushed my full talent potential by starting doing dresses for my classmates and teachers, and friends. I have monetized my talent and my passion for fashion by opening up my own atelier thereby expanding from dresses to uniforms," she said.
In fact, it was Onate's design that the Xavier University students are wearing to this day.
A graduate with degree in Bachelor of Science in Business Management, Onate shared that she did not have any formal education in fashion design until she got to travel to Europe and did short and intensive courses in fashion.
"I have just signed up for another short course in Fashion at the University of Arts in London, College of Fashion. Plus I do constant research and bought many fashion books that most fashion schools abroad are using. Self-taught is what I call it," she said.
From Cagayan de Oro to abroad
In 2009, Onate went out of country and worked in Abu Dhabi for a prominent fashion house for four years where she learned more on the couture process.
In late 2011, she moved to Bahrain where she got to develop more of her talent and expanded her horizon through working on dresses for royalties and the affluent. She is still in Bahrain at present and establishing her own brand.
Onate had done a number of fashion shows in Cagayan de Oro, from bridal exhibitions to pageantry and mall shows. She was also one of the pioneer members in establishing the Oro Fashion Designers Guild. She also participated in fashion shows while working in Abu Dhabi.
At present a Bahrain-based fashion designer, Onate recently unveiled her latest couture collection for a solo fashion show in Dallas Texas and will be doing two more shows in Houston and Beaumont.
Her collections and inspirations
Her fashion aesthetics has always been couture, Onate said.
"The craftsmanship and details the designer puts into his work to turn into a masterpiece is just so unbelievable. It makes me proud to make pieces that you work hard, not to mention, the ingenuity and number of hours you put yourself to it," she added.
Looking at her designs, one would think that Jugger Onate's works "could be minimalistic but mostly couture" if you have an eye for detail.
Details have a strong impact to the dresses and Onate's have "bold" details in its silhouettes and fabrics.
Onate shared that her designs came from several inspirations, the first being the woman's sense of style and femininity that she got from her mother, sister and the women around her.
And as she got to travel as lot in Europe, her world on fashion design continue to open. The people, the architecture, arts and culture, and the sense of order amongst chaos, it inspired her a lot.
"I have traveled most of Europe, and each city has something that gives or leaves me, a fashion inspiration," Onate said.
A Kagay-anon among the great fashion designers
Honored, happy and proud, Onate said as she recall her emotions when she received a message from the editors of Illustrado Magazine that she is in the list of the 100 hottest Filipino designers around the globe.
"I mean there are thousands of talented fashion designers all over and to be included in the list of just 100, it's surreal, and it's also glorious," Onate said.
"You are in the hallmarks of the present great fashion designers the likes of Michael Cinco, Furne One, and so many others who have achieved fashion greatness.
Designers whom you have looked up to for inspiration," she added.
For Onate, it is something that she can share not just for her family but also to all the Kagay-anons and Filipinos all over the world.
And to all the aspiring Filipino fashion designers, her message is:
"Reach for your dreams! Know what you want and know how to get it. Equip yourself with knowledge through fashion education and or research. Learning always happens everyday. And work hard for it," Onate said.
Onate will be opening her line in the United States on a venture alongside a fellow Kagay-anon and her mentor Jil Lasaca and Carlo Vargas who have been instrumental in bringing her couture line. She also has a lineup of fashion shows in the US that will run through September to November of this year.

Nacap is pleased to have executed a contract with APA Group for the Yamarna Gas Pipeline (YGP) project in December 2017.
APA will design, build, own and operate the pipeline and the 45 MW gas-fired power station, at a total construction cost of around $180 million.
The YGP project involves construction of a 198-kilometre DN150 natural gas high pressure pipeline to be built east of Laverton in Western Australia, running from a connection point off the existing Eastern Goldfields Gas Pipeline to the new Gruyere gold mine project site. Also included are high pressure pipeline and facilities, including pipeline offtake and isolation, main line valve, filtration, metering, heating and pressure control to control and measure gas delivery suitable for the requirements of the mine site.
Works commenced in January 2018 with mobilising and establishing a 200 person camp, with the balance of the field pipeline works commencing February 2018. A high production spread of plant will perform these works over the course of only 4 months and we expect to complete the works by the end of the June 2018 quarter.

Ten Reasons
Hire An Artist
Susan Stamper Brown, 1/4/2011 [
111th Congress: So Long, Farewell, Auf Wiedersehen, Good Bye
111th Congress:'So Long, Farewell, Auf Wiedersehen, Good Bye'
By Susan Stamper Brown
Oh, the irony of poetic justice. Every once in a while it happens.In the Bible story of Esther, Jew hater Haman was hung on the same gallows he'd originally set up to hang Queen Esther's Jewish uncle. In the Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade movie, the Nazi double agent who claimed to 'believe' in the grail, but secretly loved the swastika, fell to her death after greedily reaching for the grail.
After November midterms, it seemed poetic justice had struck again when the worst Congress in modern day history who has made an art form out of kicking the American people where it hurts was itself booted out of power -- until it became apparent it takes more than losing an election for those with selective hearing to get the message.
Albeit the Democrats were booted because Americans grew weary from being ignored by elected officials, Democratic leaders ignored the election results and continued their march forward in lockstep purveying the message that they may have lost a battle, but will not lose their war.
Give them credit for their determination, but it's time to get real. Gallop awarded the 111th Congress a final record low 13 percent approval rating.It is hard to imagine any Congress who has done so much with so little support, and alienated so many.And the audacity of one such member - Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid -- who published a press release listing the legislative triumphs of the 111th Congress as if it would be read at his own Academy Awards show: Obamacare, the $814 billion stimulus bill and the grand finale, (drumroll please) the 1924-page, $1.2 trillion omnibus spending (yes, spending) bill to mention a few.
In the end, the 111th Congress attained record debt in record time. Hear Hear. The spending only stopped because the clock ran out.Hence, and incidentally not mentioned in Reid's press release, the Democrats netted the largest net loss (since 1933) of 63 seats, not to include blue state governorships turning red in droves -- even the blueberry stained state of Maine.
Adding insult to injury during her exit interviews, unabashed and without apology, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi landed her own version of a spinning back kick when she said she would do it all over again in the same way given the opportunity. It doesn't matter what we want, Big Brother (or Sister) knows best.Period.It's that same mentality that has hijacked the Democratic Party for the last decade and the American people and the economy for several years.And it's not going away until the Democrats remove the Progressives in 2012 -- or the party implodes.
111th Congress, tentatively we bid Thee 'so long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, good bye,' as we also cast a close and watchful eye on those still within the Democratic Party who refuse to work for us but rather work tocontinue pursuit of their egalitarian cradle to coffin dream of complete government dependence.

The 3 River Cruises You Must Take This Spring
Cruise Line & Cruise Ship American Queen Steamboat Company Barry Kaufman February 21, 2017
Let's face it; there's really no bad time to get out on a river cruise.
Fall has its charms, allowing you to wind past verdant fields being tinged by the season with the golden hues of autumn. In winter, the Christmas markets of Europe beg to be explored, and you won't find a better way to do so than from the water. Yet, summer—blessed summer—warms the breezes that you take in from the bow, as you watch the world glide gracefully by.
Let's not forget the bountiful charms of spring: that season when the rolling river fed by melting snow on peaks far away seems to drift you somewhere magical around every bend.
If the gently rising mercury has you itching to get out and explore, we've gathered a few river cruises you must take this spring.
American Queen Steamboat Company's Antebellum South
The American south in spring. If there is a better place to be at a better time, we've yet to find it. Summer's heat can make any excursion an exercise in heat endurance, and winter's chill means you may as well be up north, freezing with all the Yankees.
Come here in spring, however, and you'll find the enchantment of an absolutely perfect clime for rolling down the mighty Mississippi, seeing the Spanish moss lazily twist in the wind.
American Queen Steamboat Company is offering excursions from Memphis to New Orleans and back again on a trip called Antebellum South.
Depending on the itinerary of your particular trip, you'll tour graceful Southern ports like Natchez, Vicksburg and Baton Rouge, delighting in that famed Dixie hospitality and the grandeur of serene plantation homes.
Explore Portugal's Rivers of Gold with Viking River Cruise
When you're talking river cruising, there's nowhere like Europe. The continent practically invented this style of travel and still does it with an old-world elegance that can't be duplicated.
Viking River Cruises does it with style all its own. There are almost too many cruises and itineraries to choose from, but allow us to indulge in some springtime vision boarding and put the spotlight on the company's exquisite Rivers of Gold journey through Portugal.
READ MORE: The 3 Best Places for Spring Break (If You Hate Spring Breakers)
Starting off in the majestic city of Lisbon, you'll get a chance to experience a city whose renown as a cultural hotspot is beautifully showcased in spring, before heading off the explore the famed wine country of the Douro Valley.
Two Ways to Discover Myanmar with AmaWaterways
A destination quietly gaining fame for its breathtaking river cruises is Myanmar, and this spring AmaWaterways is offering a pair of fantastic itineraries to take it all in.
Golden Treasures of Myanmar begins in Pyay, taking 10 days on a leisurely trip down the Irrawaddy with stops at monasteries and villages along the way, spending a full day in Bagan and giving you a chance to see the world from atop Mt. Popa. The tour disembarks in "the golden city" of Mandalay.
On Hidden Wonders of Myanmar, you'll begin your journey at Mandalay and carry on down the river, spending 14 days exploring the sacred sites and markets on your way back toward Pyay for an in-depth visit before continuing to Yangon.
There are so many ways to get out and explore the world's rivers this spring. We've suggested a mere handful compared to the endless possibilities that await.
Get out there and find yours.

This news can fit into curricula in several ways, in several courses: Insects have already evolved in response to climate shifts due to global warming.
The Boston Globe has a series on global warming, and a recent article detailed how mosquitoes on the Maine frontier have already changed their breeding seasons in response to warming weather.
A mosquito that can barely fly is one of only five known species that scientists say have already evolved because of global warming. The unobtrusive mosquito's story illustrates a sobering consequence of climate change: The species best suited to adapting may not be the ones people want to survive.
Such news enhances biology studies of genetics and insects, geography studies of climate, animal dispersal patterns and disease and pest ranges (a subject more technically known as biogeography), and the articles lend urgency to studies of how governments react to natural crises, a topic suitable for government classes, economics, and U.S. and world history.

Another exciting announcement! This year's Warp Zone Art Show will include the fantastic "Cello Fortress" by Joost van Donge, a unique game experience combining games and a live music performance.
A cellist defends a fortress by improvising on his cello. Melodies control the guns, dissonant notes activate the flamethrowers. Players from the audience use game controllers to steer their tanks and attack the fortress. The cellist plays live music, while at the same time controlling the game to be a fun challenge for the players. Cello Fortress is an innovative experiment that blends concert and game.
Joost van Dongen is known for his previous game Proun, and as lead programmer and co-founder of Ronimo Games, the studio behind the hit downloadable games Awesomenauts, Swords & Soldiers and De Blob. Joost regularly writes about creating games on his development blog.

The adorable House-Mouse Designs® from Ellen Jareckie are some of the sweetest images and today's stamps are great project makers for valentines, wedding or just to say I love you like Kristine Reynolds accordion album.
Debi Hammons combined Vertical Heart stencil with Shower Of Love for an added cascade of hearts that look wonderful together.
The teamwork of Amanda and Muzzy create a sweet message for this stenciled Valentine's Day card also designed by Debi Hammons.
And if you are into stamping for Valentine's Day why not stamp the perfect puckers, too. Now wouldn't that be a cute image for a scrapbook layout on getting ready for a wedding or prom.
Now let's see some fantastic designer projects to end this week on a sweet note.

Fulbright Program Selects Mysore for Research Fellowship
The Fulbright program aims to increase mutual understanding between the people of the United States and of other countries through an international educational exchange program.
ARDMORE, Okla. — Noble Research Institute professor and principal investigator Kiran Mysore, Ph.D., has been selected for a Fulbright-Nehru Academic and Professional Excellence Fellowship.
Mysore will travel to the University of Agricultural Science in Bangalore, India, to study how plants respond to multiple stresses, such as disease and drought, at one time.
Summers in India are similar to those in the Southern Great Plains, where heat, drought and disease are common problems for farmers and ranchers. Scientists in India are leading experts in their research to determine a plant's ability to handle drought conditions.
At the Noble Research Institute, Mysore's team works to find disease resistance genes in plants to help reduce crop plant losses. Diseases cause significant losses in food production.
Plants that grow with less water and greater disease resistance are vital to keep the agriculture sector productive.
"I'm honored for this opportunity as I get to return to my home university and work with their scientists. I've hosted visiting scientists from this university in my laboratory. Now, I get the opportunity to learn from them."
- Kiran Mysore, Ph.D., professor
"We congratulate Kiran on this remarkable opportunity to expand his research expertise across the world. The Noble Research Institute's plant science is designed to spur discovery that will benefit farmers and ranchers by developing stronger forage varieties."
- Michael Udvardi, Ph.D., chief scientific officer
Noble Research Institute, LLC (www.noble.org) is an independent nonprofit agricultural research organization dedicated to delivering solutions to great agricultural challenges. Headquartered in Ardmore, Oklahoma, the Noble Research Institute conducts fundamental, translational and applied research; offers no-cost consultation and education to farmers, ranchers and land managers; operates seven research and demonstration farms; and educates students of all ages about science and agriculture. The Noble Research Institute was founded by Lloyd Noble, an Oklahoma oilman and philanthropist, in 1945 as The Samuel Roberts Noble Foundation to advance agriculture and land stewardship.

Perfect Pati 5th October 2018 Written Episode Update: Pushkar reaches late
Perfect Pati 5th October 2018 Written Episode, Written Update on TellyUpdates.com
The Episode starts with everyone worrying that Pushkar didn't come. Rajshri asks Ashwin not to worry. Ashwin worries and thinks is history repeating itself. Vidhi worries and says I can't let Ashwin's trust break down. She leaves and hears the people talking. Rajshri says how did Pushkar get so late, don't think much, this marriage will happen today for sure. Ashwin says I know you are right, but marriage mahurat is passing by, call Pushkar once. Randhir says we also worry for him, maybe his car broke down, maybe he didn't get time to charge his phone. Rajshri prays. Vidhi looks for Pushkar. She sits somewhere and cries. Nivedita worries for Vidhi. Ashwin says Vidhi isn't answering. The girl says Vidhi's phone is here. Nivedita says she may do anything wrong. Ashwin asks her not to say this. He says I chose this alliance, if anything happens to her, I won't forgive myself. Maasa says nothing will happen to her, lets talk to Pushkar and know the matter, Vidhi is educated, she won't do anything wrong. Nivedita cries.
Ashwin says I will find her. A guy asks what are you doing in bridal dress. Vidhi sees him and gets back. He gives her water. She refuses. He says have it. She drinks water. He asks are you bride. She says no, I m running away in bridal dress. He sits there. He says what are you doing here. She says we are strangers, its better we don't talk. He says we are here, I know you and we can talk, we have no enmity. She asks are you mad. He smiles and says yes, I m a stranger, I can say you are in some problem, you can tell me. She asks why shall I tell you. He says it means there is a problem, I m a student and try to learn lessons of life. She asks is this happening right with me. He says you change when you can't change the situation, maybe you get a reason to smile. She says you can't imagine what happened with me. He says if bride runs away, it would mean the bride isn't willing, or groom didn't reach mandap, I got it right, sorry.
She says its easy to give advice, its tough to bear this pain, I have gone through this twice, you think this is a joke. He says its about you, not me, I m just trying to give you courage. She says my belief is breaking. He says I understand your pain, you are not alone, this pain is part of every life, reason can be different, but pain is same. Rangeela waits for Vidhi and beats pandit. Maasa says where did Pushkar go and why. She gets Rangeela's call and asks him to have patience. She says baraat reached, but Pushkar didn't reach. Rangeela says great, I will come there and marry Vidhi. She says Vidhi isn't here, our work can't happen. He asks where did she go. She says I don't know, I will call you when needed. Bela asks how will my work happen. Maasa says don't worry, let me know the matter. Bela asks do they know your plan and got away to marry.
Maasa says no, Pushkar's family is here. I will get you married today, lock door and sit here. The guy asks when did you last cry. Vidhi says when I lost my parents. He asks did you get them back, did your pain get less. She says no. He says time heals everything, this pain is with you and gave you courage, it made you fight with life. She says my groom didn't reach mandap today. He asks why, he broke your trust, why, maybe you get the answer or not, your family will be worried for you, you should go home and relieve them, you have family to support, who knows your groom reached, if he doesn't reach, at least you will be with your family. She says your words gave me courage, I will pray for you. He thanks her. She says don't thank, it ends relation, we don't have enmity between us. He says good luck and smiles. They leave. Vidhi comes home and gets shocked seeing Pushkar. Pushkar sees her.

Epigenetics & chromatin 20160216
DNA methylation is one way to encode epigenetic information and plays a crucial role in regulating gene expression during embryonic development. DNA methylation marks are established by the DNA methyltransferases and, recently, a mechanism for active DNA demethylation has emerged involving the ten-eleven translocator proteins and thymine DNA glycosylase (TDG). However, so far it is not clear how these enzymes are recruited to, and regulate DNA methylation at, specific genomic loci. A number of s ...[more]

Cognitive Accessibility at W3C
About Accessibility for People with Cognitive and Learning Disabilities
Cognitive and learning disabilities impact how people process information. For example, they can affect people's perception, memory, language, attention, problem solving, and comprehension. Terminology for categories and conditions varies, and includes intellectual disabilities, developmental disabilities; attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism, dementia, dyslexia, and more.
Technology provides opportunities for people to interact with content and to process information in ways that are more usable to them. For example, people can:
- navigate web content using different strategies
- access information in text, audio, or other formats
- change the presentation of the content according to their individual needs or preferences
There are many things that designers and developers can do to:
- avoid accessibility barriers that exclude people from using their products
- optimize the user experience of people with cognitive and learning disabilities
Specific examples of cognitive and learning disabilities and of accessibility barriers are in this section of "How People with Disabilities Use the Web: Diverse Abilities and Barriers": Cognitive and learning.
Cognitive Accessibility in W3C Standards
Existing and developing standards from the W3C Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) address many aspects of cognitive accessibility. For example, Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) includes requirements that address cognitive accessibility. The requirements (called "success criteria") are in these and other guidelines:
- Guideline 1.3 Adaptable: Create content that can be presented in different ways (for example simpler layout) without losing information or structure.
- Guideline 2.2 Enough Time: Provide users enough time to read and use content.
- Guideline 2.4 Navigable: Provide ways to help users navigate, find content, and determine where they are.
- Guideline 3.1 Readable: Make text content readable and understandable.
- Guideline 3.2 Predictable: Make Web pages appear and operate in predictable ways.
- Guideline 3.3 Input Assistance: Help users avoid and correct mistakes.
Additional guidance on cognitive accessibility is include in the WCAG Understanding documents and Techniques, including Advisory Techniques. These documents are introduced in a section of the WCAG Overview: What is in the WCAG 2 Documents.
Additional Support for Cognitive Accessibility
Some cognitive accessibility user needs are not addressed in existing W3C standards.
W3C is actively working to provide additional guidance on cognitive accessibility, including:
- developing "supplemental guidance" beyond what fits into accessibility standards now
- developing additional requirements to be included in WCAG 2.2 and addressed by WCAG 3.0
- developing standards for personalization, which is a key aspect of cognitive accessibility
The following draft document is open for review: Making Content Usable for People with Cognitive and Learning Disabilities.
Cognitive Accessibility Work at W3C
Current work on cognitive accessibility at W3C WAI is mostly focused in the following Task Forces under the Accessibility Guidelines Working Group (AG WG) and the Accessible Platform Architectures (APA) Working Group:
- Cognitive and Learning Disabilities Accessibility Task Force (COGA)— Resources in development are listed in the COGA wiki main page.
- Personalization Task Force— Resources in development are introduced in the Personalization Overview.
Get Updates, Get Involved
To get notices of opportunities for review and comment on WAI documents, see Get WAI News.
Opportunities for contributing to cognitive accessibility and other WAI work are introduced in Participating in WAI.
If you would like to be more involved in the Task Force work, please send information about your interests and time availability:
- For the Cognitive and Learning Disabilities Accessibility Task Force (COGA), e-mail Task Force Facilitator Lisa Seeman and W3C Staff (firstname.lastname@example.com).
- For the Personalization Task Force, e-mail Task Force Facilitators Lisa Seeman and Charles LaPierre, and W3C Staff (email@example.com).
