For the longest time, fans of Harry Potter have been clamouring for a return to Hogwarts in a video game. There used to be a time when we'd get regular video games coinciding with the release of a new film, and those games ranged from good to pretty terrible. Ultimately, those games were bound by short production times in order to launch with the release of a new movie. Since then, we've gotten a god awful mobile game that was plagued with microtransactions that seriously angered the fandom. Now, it seems that there may be a ray of light in the future as leaked footage of an apparent game has surfaced online.
Now, this footage is by no means official, so take all of this with a grain of salt, but it should be worth mentioning that Warner Bros. have since had the clips removed from YouTube for copyright reasons, which has only increased speculation that the game is real as WB owns the property rights for the Potterverse outside of the books. That includes the films, the Fantastic Beasts spinoffs, video games and theme parks. They could also be protecting their intellectual property, and all this is a fake, but it doesn't seem to be the case. Another interesting point is that Avalanche Software was hiring for a job that fits this bill some time ago and that WB also owns that studio, so the pieces are starting to fit.
Harry Potter And Sorcerer's Stone (Two-Disc Special Edition) (Blu-ray) from Warner Bros.
The footage was uploaded to Reddit on Monday night by a user named "VapeThisBro" (sigh), who was part of a survey in regards to the game. But he snuck his camera in and was able to film the footage and left before he had to sign an NDA, so he states. BBC journalist Lizo Mzimba stated that the footage is real according to his sources as he knows of an unannounced Harry Potter RPG in the works.
There's also a synopsis for the game, which was filled with typos so I'll just paraphrase for your benefit. The game takes place in the 19th century and sees you playing as your own unique character that you get to create. You're a new student to Hogwarts, who only got accepted in the fifth year. This is due to you being a particularly rare type of witch or wizard, one who can "track and identify remnants of ancient magic". But starting your wizarding education in your fifth year is something completely unknown to us Potter fans, so why this is happening is very much a mystery and one I really want to know the answer to. I've embedded the footage below as a gif so you may have to restart the clip to see it from the beginning.
The game will also be an open world RPG, and thus you'll be able to explore the castle, the grounds and Hogsmeade village at your leisure, along with any secret areas unknown to fans of the books and movies. It looks like there is quite a bit of destruction within the environments and you can use magic to repair certain sections in order to progress through the world. You team up with Professor Fig (Charms professor maybe?) as you learn potions and spells, meets creatures, fight dark wizards, goblins and monsters for the "Fate of the wizarding world." It also sounds like there will be eight different gaming classes, so it seems like there will be some flexibility with how you play the game. You also get to chose your house and chose whether to play as good or evil student, which also sounds very interesting. I like that this isn't a traditional linear Harry Potter game, as the video game adaptations, but one that seems to be filled with choice and consequence as you mould your own character.
All of this sounds extremely promising to be honest. Back when I was a writer for Moviepilot, I wrote a piece detailing how cool it would be to have an open world RPG set within the Potter universe. My initial pitch was that the game could perhaps take place between the 40s and 50s, away from the events of either film series. Having the action take place in the 1800s is, in my opinion, an even better idea as it further detaches itself from the established stories and gives us a whole new period in history to explore the wizarding world. Which admittedly, will look pretty similar to its big screen counterparts as there are no modern devices in the wizarding world.
I hope the game will take some gameplay cues from the Bully game from Rockstar, as I also stated in my previous writings. I found that Bully captured perfectly what it's like to go to school while simultaneously embarking on your own quest. Even more, fun though was playing hooky and not going to classes and simply wandering the school grounds and the neighbouring town across the bridge. The seasons shifted as the game went on and thus, you really felt like you were living in a tangible place. That's what I'd want it to feel like going to Hogwarts. I don't want it to feel like a Wizarding World museum, with all the sights and sounds, but a real place that I can live in and interact with.
Personally, I'm really excited about this and hope WB put out an official statement and footage soon to confirm that this is all happening or not. Until that happens, why not check out our latest on the Alien franchise and what you should be watching in anticipation for Red Dead Redemption II.

Totally awesome videos … again
Yeah I know Usain Bolt got criticism for dancing and celebrating before he even crossed the finish line of his 100 meter dash but dammit, the man can run.
Kathy Griffin is so wrong yet so right.
Chris Rock is talking about racism and making me bust a gut from laughing.
Dave Chappelle is talking about racial differences. I was reminded of this today when my friend mentioned giving her kids "grape drink."
Here's a very rare tape of Anne Sexton reading "Her Kind"
This is a recording of Sylvia Plath reading "Daddy" with a video of photos over the audio. Her voice sounds like my stereotypical "Snotty girl" voice. That amuses me greatly. For some reason, I always thought she had a higher pitched voice.
This is the Benjamin Button trailer. I'm going to go see this which is why you got some videos instead of an actual written entry.

Joint Support & Pain Relief
The joints are points in the body where bones come together, providing the body with its complex movements. Joint health is a critical part of maintaining those movements throughout life. As we age, the tissues that maintain our joint strength and capacity begins to degenerate. Ensuring that your joints receive all the nutrients they need to maintain good health is fundamental to the health of your joints later in life.
Osteoarthritis is a very common form of arthritis. Wear and tear on the joints focuses on the cartilage. Osteoarthritis is made more serious by age-related degeneration. Rheumatoid arthritis is another major joint health concern. An inflammatory immune disorder, rheumatoid arthritis damages cartilage and joints and severely limits mobility.

It Burns
If it is insanity that makes the fire so enticing to the hand,
The evidence of stubbornness is in the multitude of burns.
Why was the lesson not learned at the first whiff of char?
What compelled me to dare and dare again?
You could interpret it as punishment
That this bird will no longer visit your windowsill.
No gradual detachment, just the growing ache of distance
And the knowledge that this shoe will be forever dropping.
Complete severance after years of tentative trust
Left me with a lust for your blood.
Longing to crush every part of you,
To match our mangled selves and settle.
The anxiety about you is at rest now
And I have no need to see you destroyed.
The sickness in me still strokes the shiny patches,
Remembering the heat.

So it isn't enough to ban marriage at the federal level, and then ban marriage at the state level, Kansas is trying to ban domestic partner registries as well. I tell you, this is nothing less than the way the Nazis treated the Jews in Germany in the 1930s. They slowly voted them out, and then look what they did to them. Now I am just waiting for the KrystalNacht to occur in a number of states.
What are these so-called legislators trying to do? Do they want to wipe us out, maybe set up a concentration camp and starve and torture and gas all of us? That is what it will come to if we keep letting them take away any rights we have left.
Here is a picture of the budding Hitler of Kansas, Lance Kinzer, a Republican (no surprise there):
And this is no big surprise, he just received an award from the Eagle Forum, another anti-gay hate group. And for what? His work "in the battle for God, Home and Country."
Here is what his website has to say on the issue of domestic partnership registries:
PREEMPTION OF LOCAL DOMESTIC PARTNERSHIP ORDINANCES – On Thursday Rep. Kinzer also appeared before the House Federal & State Affairs Committee on HB 2299 which would prohibit local government entities from establishing domestic partnership registries. Such registries would be contrary to the traditional practice of governing domestic relations via state laws of general applicability. Furthermore, implementation of domestic partnership registries at the local level could set up legal challenges to the 2005 marriage amendment which was passed by an overwhelming majority of Kansas voters.
You can read his 'testimony' about his proposed bill here. If you don't want to read that load of crap, here is his last paragraph:
I think an honest assessment of these types of questions leads to the conclusion that domestic partnership registries can have only two purposes. First, they can serve as mechanisms to convey legal rights approximating marriage. To the extent they do so, at least in Kansas, they run contrary to the clearly established will of the people embedded in our Constitution. Second, they can serve as pure political statements designed to allow a particular community to stake out its position in a broader cultural dispute. While it can be argued that this is not all bad, any possible benefit must be weighed against the dangers attendant to setting a precedent in favor of local development of domestic relations law. Again, this is a recipe for our law in this area to develop via judicial decree rather then via the legislative process. The net result may well be an erosion or hollowing out of the marriage amendment. Indeed, I do not think it at all unlikely that this is exactly when some proponents of the Lawrence ordinance have in mind.
An honest assessment? A domestic partnership really does nothing, and it certainly does not give the rights of marriage. This guy is a liar. Doug and I have been registered partners in Ann Arbor MI since 1994 and in Berkeley since 1996. We got nothing out of that except a piece of paper (which we certainly appreciated from these cities, but it gave us no benefits of marriage at all).
His email is email@example.com.
I encourage everyone to send him an email. I'm going to send him one today.

A Special Delivery with Shoulder Dystocia
You want your baby entering the world in pristine condition, but Shoulder Dystocia can cause all sorts of issue for the child and the mother. SD occurs during labor when the baby's shoulders get stuck as they pass through the birth canal. This can be extremely dangerous because the baby can sustain injuries to their arms or shoulders, the baby's brain could be deprived of oxygen...resulting in brain damage, and the mother's tissues (such as cervix, uterus, or vagina) could tear, causing excessive bleeding.
Don't Have a Hernia, Man
Have you ever had part of your intestines or other tissues bulge through your abdominal wall? Just reading that sentence feels painful. Luckily if this happens, you are likely diagnosed with a hernia, and a doctor fixes it with simple surgery. In most cases, they install surgical mesh that provides support for the weakened tissue. This mesh can be made of animal tissue, which degrades over time while your body naturally heals itself, or synthetic material that acts as a permanent reinforcement to keep the hernia from reappearing. Unfortunately the mesh can be faulty in some cases and result in further pain, infection, recurrence, obstruction (intestinal blockage), or perforation (a hole in nearby tissue or organs).
How your pharmacy lets you know of a medication recall
Pharmaceutical research and the prescription of medications for what ails a patient is big business in the United States. Each year millions of Americans suffering from a variety of conditions are prescribed drugs to treat what ails them. While they help many of them recover from an illness or manage a chronic health condition, you may wonder what role your pharmacy plays it getting you information about unsafe medications.
New truckers threaten to increase truck crash rates in the U.S.
Tractor-trailers are critical to getting products to the market in the United States. While any time you see a big rig crash, it seems catastrophic, the industry as a whole has gotten a lot safer in the past years than it was a little more than a decade ago.

The Legal Profession Unit of Study is a mandatory `Priestley 11' subject. We critically examine issues relevant to lawyers' role in society: professionalism, lawyers' conduct, lawyers' ethical obligations and choices, and the regulation of legal services. We examine the nature of legal professionalism and its inherent relationship with ethics, values and morals, as well as its relationship with commerce. We explore the shifting profile of the profession, the response of the profession to these demographic changes, and the major cultural and economic forces that operate on legal professionalism and regulation of the profession. From that base we analyse access to justice issues, different notions of lawyering, the structure of the legal profession, and diverse theoretical views and models of regulation. We move on to consider the lawyer-client relationship and strategies to facilitate equality and effective communication in the delivery of legal services. Finally, we examine lawyers' duties to clients and the Court, and the ways in which the rules and principles of confidentiality and conflicts of interest affect the advice and representation lawyers provide for clients. This unit of study requires your active participation in class discussion, and your critical reflection on the issues raised throughout the semester.
2x2hr seminars/week for 10 weeks (daytime stream), 1x3hr seminar/wk for 13 weeks (evening stream)

Federal court bans Florida stem cell company from treating patients, including spinal cord injuryPrint | Email
A federal court ordered that Sunrise, Fla.-based regenerative medicine companies US Stem Cell Clinic and US Stem Cell stop providing stem cell treatments to patients, according to the U.S. Department of Justice.
Four insights:
1. The U.S. alleges the defendants — Chief Scientific Officer Kristin Comella, PhD, for US Stem Cell Clinic and US Stem Cell — advertised "stromal vascular fraction" products as stem-cell based treatments for conditions such as spinal cord injuries, stroke and brain injury among others.
2. The defendants made the claims without FDA approval, according to the complaint.
3. A district judge ruled that the SVF products must adhere to the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act.
4. The Court entered a permanent injunction banning the defendants from selling or providing the products without FDA approval.
"We are committed to continuing to pursue actions against those who put patients in harm's way by marketing unapproved stem cell products that skirt FDA's regulations and federal law," said Acting FDA Commissioner Ned Sharpless, MD.

BAGHDAD, The leader of the National Wisdom Movement Ammar al-Hakim discussed with the former Speaker of the House of Representatives Salim al-Jubouri the formation of the next government.
"The two sides also discussed the principle of reform, which we consider to be a responsibility of solidarity and partnership among all," a statement by the Wisdom Information Office said.
" He stressed the importance of supporting Prime Minister-designate Adel Abdul-Mahdi, stressing also "the importance of removing Iraq from regional and international political disputes and focus on providing services and achieve the aspirations of the Iraqi people."
He also renewed his "vision of the Reform and Reconstruction Coalition as the result of a reformist vision that takes priority and opens up to all in the interest of Iraq."
Al-Hakim appreciated the role of Al-Jubouri "in the presidency of parliament for the previous session in a high national spirit and his keenness to legislate and approve the important laws."

Late goal denies Nailsea Town all three points
PUBLISHED: 11:07 10 January 2018 | UPDATED: 11:07 10 January 2018
A goal three minutes from time, denied Nailsea United all three points against visitors Ilminster Town.
Nailsea United 2
Ilminster Town 2
Nailsea United entertained Ilminster Town, although the pitch was perfectly playable it was obvious that any short passes could cause either team a problem.
United had the early play and took the lead on five minutes. Ross Probert brought the ball out of the defence before playing a perfectly weighted pass taking out two visiting defenders to find Adam Marsden, who in turn played an accurate ball into the middle where Sam Olsen made no mistake to slot the ball home.
The visitors then began to assert themselves with centre back Lee Cook making a timely tackle as the Ilminster forward prepared to strike. Immediately Nailsea retaliated when good closing down by Olsen gave him the opportunity to slip the ball to Luke Penberthy who surged forward before releasing a shot which beat the Ilminster keeper just inside the far post to double his side's lead.
Ilminster began a period of sustained pressure as they tried to get into the game. This was rewarded on 34 minutes when the referee adjudged a Nailsea defender to foul inside the area. The resultant penalty was duly converted, although keeper Owen Adamson dived the right way.
Two minutes into the second half Olsen had a half-chance but his effort was saved easily. With 70 minutes on the clock, Ben Pratt tried his luck following a corner but his shot was wide.
It was then the turn of Penberthy who fastened onto a long clearance but fired wide. Ilminster then began to look the more dangerous side with United taking off Joe Sharps to be replaced by the more experienced Liam Lester to repel the visitors' attacks.
A good move with an exchange of passes between Probert and Penberthy cut open the Ilminster defence, but the latter just failed to make contact with the final pass from Probert.
With four minutes remaining Nailsea were awarded a free kick 25 yards from goal. Although Rob Brown made good contact the low shot went the wrong side of the post.
Finally, the Ilminster pressure was rewarded when they scored the equaliser three minutes from time when the United defence failed to clear the ball.
Although United were disappointed to let a two-goal lead go this was probably a fair result as the visitors had the better of the second half. Nailsea remain in seventh place in the league following a run of undefeated matches.
On Saturday, the first team are without a fixture. The Reserves are at home to Tunley Athletic with a 2pm start.
Congratulations to the B side as they go back to the top of the league with a 3-0 win over Kewstoke Lions. The B side are home On Saturday, hosting Shipham in a 2pm kick-off.
A word of praise also for the young Colts side who picked up a point away to Clevedon United A in sharing six goals.

Posted: March 17th, 2015 | By: Stacy Jones
Beginning in August 2015, the Wake Forest University School of Law will offer an American Bar Association-approved Two-Year Juris Doctor (J.D.) for International Lawyers. Wake Forest is the first law school in North Carolina to offer this degree, which is specifically designed for lawyers educated outside of the United States who are interested in gaining expertise in American law.
Graduates are eligible to take any state bar exam along with all other J.D. graduates. Admitted foreign law graduates receive one year of law school credit based on their legal education in their home countries.
Associate Dean of International Affairs Richard Schneider says, "Wake Forest Law recognizes that while many foreign law graduates come to the U.S. to earn an LL.M. degree, some foreign law graduates, however, want to come to the U.S. to earn a J.D. degree. They might consider a J.D. degree to be essential for their home law job market, or they may have ideas of staying in the United States to practice law."
Interim Dean of Wake Forest Law Suzanne Reynolds ('77) praises the new degree opportunity. "Since every lawyer's experience is increasingly global, the presence of more international J.D. students at Wake Forest enhances the study of law for everyone at our school."
Santiago Herrera Hall ('17) is from Argentina and an incoming Two-Year JD student in fall 2015 and cites the collegial atmosphere that pervades the law school and the wide variety of upper-class courses offered at Wake Forest as playing an important role in his decision. "It also helped the fact that the law school is located in Winston-Salem, N.C., a friendly and incredibly welcoming, vibrant city with a remarkable sense of community. I also feel I can have an impact in both Wake Forest Law and Winston-Salem," says Hall.
Hall adds about the decision to chose Wake Forest Law, "The staff sincerely cared about helping me make the right decision. They patiently addressed each and every concern I had, and helped me assess whether Wake Forest was the best fit considering my background and career plans—instead of just 'selling' and deal with whatever concerns you later. This last was very important during the decision-making process and helped me understand Wake Forest's character and culture."
Maria Travers ('17) is from Nicaragua and chose Wake Forest because of the school environment and the resources the university provides its students, with priority to the availability that professors have for any academic concern. "The classes are small and the faculty and staff are very welcoming. Wake Forest Law will give me the opportunity to gain the fundamental knowledge of law to be a humanitarian legal professional, which will be crucial to my career," states Travers.
Shuo Li ('17), also in the incoming fall 2015 class, cites reasons for furthering her legal education at Wake Forest. "I finished my legal education in China in one of the best Chinese law schools and after completing a one-year LLM program in the U.S., I found out that I still want to get more from the American legal educational system – just one year is not enough. Wake Forest University School of Law is giving me the chance to continue my legal education, and its good reputation and faculty make me feel that this is the law school I want to join."
Visit the website for admissions requirements and details at http://twoyearjd.law.wfu.edu/
Wake Forest Law's International Programs also include the Master of Laws in American Law (LL.M.), S.J.D., Visiting International Researcher, and Study Abroad programs in London, Venice, Vienna and Nicaragua.
In addition to the JD and the Master of Studies in Law, the law school also offers the following dual degrees: the JD/M Div, the JD/MA in Religion, the JD/MA in Bioethics and the JD/MBA in conjunction with the university's School of Business.

Are you experiencing any pain?
On this week's episode of The Tales from the Mind Boat Podcast I talk all about pain. When asked by my Dentist after the last I came in if I have had any pain since the last time we spoke, I thought about how maybe we should ask each other that more often. Pain can come in many forms and maybe we need to think about it some more. Not just within our own life but those less fortunate around us.

Confession Monday1
January 21, 2013 by Melissa
All right, I feel terrible about admitting this, sort of, but here goes: I'm not loving the whole thousand questions a day thrown at me by my three year old thing. I do love aspects of it: imparting knowledge, teaching her the whys of the world. Everyone knows that stereotypical exchange between parent and child and I was, I thought, prepared for it and even excited about it. It's just that there are times when I think Lucy asks "why?" or "how come?" out of habit instead of intent. That's when I get frustrated. "BECAUSE I JUST EXPLAINED IT ALL IN MINUTE DETAIL!" When I'm fairly certain I've explained it all fully, she then asks, again, why. Ugh. Weren't you listening to me? For example, the other day, as I was buckling Lucy in to her car seat, she asked why we have to do that. Good question, right? I answered that it keeps us safe by keeping us still. Why? Again, good question, so I touched on accidents and that seatbelts keep us from getting hurt. Why? Again, by keeping us still. We don't want to get hurt, do we? Why? Because it doesn't feel good to get hurt. It, in fact, hurts so we want to stay safe. Why? GGRRRRrrrrrr….
She usually asks good follow up questions and great conversations have been sparked by her curiousity but there are these times when she's tired or whatever and just talks out of impulse. It really drives me crazy and I've had a few times when I've had to apologize to her over my groans or glares. I know several Moms who get driven just as insane but aren't with their kids all day so I feel a little better about my seemingly low level of tolerance. I just wasn't prepared for the near constant pop quiz that my life has become. I mean, I had to try to explain the mechanics of a fuse box to her the other day. When is she going to ask why the sky is blue? I'm prepared for that one but that's not what she wants to know, of course.
Yet another parenting expectation woefully underreported on…

ZCZC MIATCDEP2 ALL TTAA00 KNHC DDHHMM Tropical Storm Tara Discussion Number 4 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP222018 400 AM CDT Mon Oct 15 2018 The satellite presentation of the tropical cyclone has improved somewhat overnight, with convection continuing to burst over the western and northwestern portions of the circulation. The center is slightly more embedded within the southeastern portion of the cold cloud tops, but easterly shear continues to restrict convection over the eastern portion of the system. A couple of ASCAT passes around 0400 UTC were helpful in locating the center of the cyclone and both indicated peak winds of 25 to 30 kt to the west of the center. Dvorak classifications at 0600 UTC were T2.5 (35 kt) from both SAB and TAFB, and given the increase in organization, the system has been upgraded to a 35-kt tropical storm. The nineteenth named storm of the 2018 eastern North Pacific hurricane season. Recent microwave imagery and the ASCAT data show that Tara has not moved much, and the initial motion estimate is stationary for this advisory. Although the tropical storm is located within an area of weak steering currents and little overall motion is expected during the next couple of days, the track guidance has become much more divergent this cycle. The GFS and UKMET models have trended northward and now bring Tara near the southwestern coast of Mexico within the next day or so. On the other hand, the ECMWF takes Tara southeastward and southward away from the coast. The various consensus aids have trended northward in the short-term, and the new NHC track forecast has been nudged in that direction through 36 hours, but it is not as far north as the GFS, GFS ensemble mean, and UKMET models. After 48 hours, a ridge is forecast to build westward across central Mexico, which should cause Tara to turn west-northwestward at a slightly faster forward speed. Given the spread in the guidance and its recent trends, the track forecast is of low confidence. The intensity forecast is also very challenging and of low confidence this morning. Tara is expected to remain under the influence of easterly shear during the next day or two. The shear, however, is not expected to be strong enough to prevent gradual strengthening. After that time, the intensity forecast depends on how close to the coast the cyclone moves. If Tara gets too close to southwestern Mexico, the small cyclone is likely to weaken. If it stays offshore, however, the shear is forecast to decrease which should allow for additional strengthening. Since the NHC track forecast keeps Tara offshore, it calls for gradual strengthening through 72 hours, but it is not as aggressive as before since most of the guidance is lower than before. Increasing southwesterly shear by days 4 and 5 should lead to weakening, and although the NHC forecast keeps Tara a tropical storm trough the period, most of the global models weaken and dissipate the system by the end of the week. Due to the uncertainties in the track forecast, the government of Mexico has issued a Tropical Storm Watch for a portion of the coast of southwest Mexico. Regardless of how close Tara tracks to southwestern Mexico, heavy rainfall will be the primary threat along the coast of southwestern Mexico due to the system's slow motion, and life-threatening flash flooding will be possible in mountainous areas. FORECAST POSITIONS AND MAX WINDS INIT 15/0900Z 17.5N 104.2W 35 KT 40 MPH 12H 15/1800Z 17.8N 104.4W 40 KT 45 MPH 24H 16/0600Z 17.9N 104.5W 45 KT 50 MPH 36H 16/1800Z 17.9N 104.7W 45 KT 50 MPH 48H 17/0600Z 18.0N 105.3W 50 KT 60 MPH 72H 18/0600Z 18.3N 106.5W 55 KT 65 MPH 96H 19/0600Z 19.0N 108.0W 50 KT 60 MPH 120H 20/0600Z 19.0N 108.0W 45 KT 50 MPH $$ Forecaster Brown NNNN

& the above applies to me really well.
I don't know about you guys but I am a person who has a very strong sense of smell.
That's why I always dread taking the public transport or being stuck in the lift with someone who doesn't use a deodorant because my nose is very sensitive to smell. There was once I even told SX to go home and change because his shirt had this "not dried" smell that is really bad. You know, when you do laundry and if you don't let your clothes be under the sun long enough, there will be this funky smell and it will linger on your clothes until the next wash. I hate that smell.
So back to my point, there was even a time where I started spritzing my room every night with my perfume because I wanted it to smell nice.
So when Palai D'or approached me to try out their essential oils, I was super pleased and agreed immediately.

Documents Required for Passport
Seneca, the Roman Stoic philosopher, statesman and dramatist once said, "Travel and change of place impart new vigor to the mind."
The passport is an official document, issued by government of a country to its citizens, which makes you eligible to travel to foreign countries. It is an important identity proof which substantiates your citizenship.
You travel to make memories, spend quality time with your family/friends, take a business trip or go meet someone, either in your own country or somewhere abroad. If you are travelling abroad, then you must carry your passport with you, however you will not need your passport if you are travelling within your own country.
You should apply for a passport well in advance if you have to travel out of the country. The passport, once issued, is usually valid for 10 years, after which you have to re-apply for the same. There are a specific set of documents that you need to submit as address and age proof for the issuance of passport.
Documents Required
You can submit any one of the official records from the following list of valid documents:
- Proof Of Present Address
- Aadhaar Card
- Rent Agreement
- Electricity bill
- Telephone (landline or postpaid mobile bill)
- Election Commission Photo ID card
- Certificate from Employer of reputed companies on letterhead
- Income Tax Assessment Order
- Photo Passbook of running Bank Account (Scheduled Public Sector Banks, Scheduled Private Sector Indian Banks and Regional Rural Banks only)
- Proof of Gas Connection
- Spouse's passport copy (First and last page including family details mentioning applicant's name as spouse of the passport holder), (provided the applicant's present address matches the address mentioned in the spouse's passport)
- Parent's passport copy, in case of minors(First and last page)
- Water Bill
- Proof Of Date Of Birth
- Birth Certificate issued by the Registrar of Births and Deaths or the Municipal Corporation or any other prescribed authority, whosoever has been empowered under the Registration of Birth and Deaths Act, 1969 to register the birth of a child born in India

- PAN Card issued by the Income Tax Department
- Driving License issued by the Transport department of concerned state Government
- Transfer/School leaving/Matriculation Certificate issued by the school last attended/recognized educational board
- Policy Bond issued by the Public Life Insurance Corporations/Companies having the DOB of the holder of the insurance policy
- Copy of an extract of the service record of the applicant (only in respect of Government servants) or the Pay Pension Order (in respect of retired Government Servants), duly attested/certified by the officer/in-charge of the Administration of the concerned Ministry/Department of the applicant
- Election Photo Identity Card (EPIC) issued by the Election Commission of India
- A declaration given by the Head of the Orphanage/Child Care Home on their official letterhead of the organization confirming the DOB of the applicant
These documents are the same for adults, senior citizens as well as minors (below 18 years of age). The only exception in case of minors is, you will have to submit a declaration affirming the particulars furnished in the application about the minor as per Annexure D. Also adults (above 18 years of age and below 65 years) will have to declare if they belong to Non-ECR (Emigration Check Required) category, for which a few more documents will have to be submitted by you. You can get the complete list of documents on the Passport Seva portal.
Besides the above mentioned set of records, you might need to submit a few additional documents in special cases such as:
- If you are a minor and were born through surrogacy, then in addition to the previously mentioned documents you will have to submit a declaration affirming the particulars furnished in the application about the minor as per Annexure I.
- If you are an adult and an employee of a government/PSU/statutory body, then you will have to provide Identity Certificate in original as per Annexure A.
- If you are a senior citizen and a retired government official, then you will be required to submit the pension payment order along with address proof and age proof.
We recommend that you check Passport Seva, an online portal established by Ministry of External Affairs, Government of India to get the complete details of the documents required for the application of passport.
While keeping these points in mind, it is best advised that you also get travel insurance when making your travel plans, as it can take care of your financial needs and cover you in case you lose/damage your passport in an unfamiliar country.

Answers to Questions
1. In view of sharply declining state appropriations, what steps should Penn State be taking to secure its financial future?
It is a scary thought, but the idea of privatizing the University will likely be upon us before we would expect it. It is the job of the Trustees to be prepared with the answers about privatization when that time comes. I am sure that many advocacy and lobbying groups have worked with their networks to raise every penny they can, but it's time to start looking towards other grant campaigns and corporate sponsors. The following steps could be considered to address securing Penn State's financial future:
- Reevaluate our current corporate agreements to see if we can restructure them for additional funding.
- Appeal to new advocacy groups and highlight the great steps the University is making among its research and development components.
- Send more lobbyists to Harrisburg and Washington.
The dollar-per-student ratio that Penn State receives compared to Pitt and Temple is demeaning. In order to stay atop the academic echelon, Pennsylvania legislators need to provide more financial support to Penn State.
2. The rising cost of tuition nationally is making college less affordable for many students. Outline the steps you believe Penn State should be taking to address the issue.
The economy has affected everyone in this country in various ways. Everyone has been forced to cut corners, students and parents of students alike. This drop in higher education financing should not force the University to decrease entrance standards; rather we should be steering our academic standards to recruit top-tier professors and students.
Pursuing the endeavors listed above to help keep the cost of tuition affordable, but now is not the time to cut corners on academic standards. The University should seek to increase endowments to provide scholarship opportunities for students who seek the excellent education opportunities at Penn State. Striving to secure Penn State's financial future includes the need to focus on supporting excellent students of all economic levels in their pursuit of higher education.
3. What form should Penn State's land-grant mission take in the 21st century?
The current strategic plan outlines the mission of the University and how to carry it out until 2014. In only a few months, that mission will need to be addressed to push Penn State into the next decade and the Board and faculty alike need to break down the present strategic plan point-by-point and rewrite the plan for 2020. In doing so, Penn State will be able to remain in the forefront of the nation's education and research institutions. A quick review of the present plan, with ideas facing forward:
- Recruit academically successful students from across the country and the world to enhance student success.
- Employ world-class faculty to further advance academic and research excellence.
- Increase research opportunities for graduate and undergraduate students to realize Penn State's place as a Global University.
- Promote Schreyer's Honor's College as an affordable Ivy League alternative and endorse other top-tier academic colleges and programs to maintain access, affordability and enhance diversity.
- Expand four-year degree offerings at Commonwealth campuses to serve the People of the Commonwealth and beyond.
- Continue to reach out to large technological companies to provide technology to expand access and opportunities for students and faculty.
- Appeal to benefactors, legislators, research grants and donors in order to control costs and generate more efficient ways of earning and spending revenue.

Tis the season…. to have a Happy Holiday Mailing
The holiday season is approaching… fast. Halloween seems to mark the beginning of the holidays these days, though I started seeing aisles of decorations and specialty gifts in the stores at least a month ago.
I love the holidays. Besides the warm memories that have been with me since childhood, I love the friendliness and optimism that naturally bubbles up in people at this time of year. It's an opportunity to connect and reconnect with the people in our lives and let them know how much we appreciate them.
And there is the one jarring note in the holiday music: Sending cards to our list of customers, associates, and friends to wish them well. Sending a personal message to our network is a wonderful way to celebrate the season, yes. But adding what if often a time consuming task to already busy end-of-year activities can be more of a burden than a joy.
Many companies lighten the burden by getting pre-printed cards that simply need to be stamped and addressed. They give up the personal touch out of necessity; better to send an automated and impersonal card than no card at all.
Wouldn't it be great to retain the personal part of the mailing without losing the efficiency of automation? It can be done. We have a service that lets you put together your own card, message and even signature, and then creates and mails them to your list. You get to keep the personal connection and you get to ditch the burden of the manual mailing. What a great way to lose that jarring note in the music, and enjoy the season to the full!

The most important skill that we can ever give to developing children is the confidence that they can think and do things and take responsibility for themselves.
During a visit to Winchester a few months ago, a strange structure was being built in the grounds, at the same time as scaffolding was being put up around one end of the building. The size and shape of the structure made it look like an alternative for services during the summer months, while work was being done. In reality, it was the topping for the scaffolding structure, to go over the roof, to enable that to be completely renovated. The complete scaffolding was enabling a safe and close examination of problems in the roof. Of course, when the original building was put up, scaffolding was timber. Health and Safety were not of concern. Scaffolding holds nothing up, other structures, like buttresses do that.
An interesting reflection, perhaps, that the erection of the scaffolding within the work programme would have been subject to a detailed project plan, scaffolding the elements so that everything was done on time. The link between project planning and planning for learning, has always, to me, been self-evident.
In the beginning was the baby, dependent on surrounding adults and older siblings for survival, for food, for warmth and the comforts of a safe, dry home.
Gradually, with these basic needs available, the baby grows, begins to move about, to become aware of their surroundings, to take an interest, to find and develop muscles that one day will enable them to stand and to walk and to begin a broader exploration of the world. It is with encouragement, praise, demonstrations of pleasure, from the adults to the baby/toddler that encourages them to repeat things, to get a little better, so that the praise and pleasures are repeated. It is a mutual process. Parents notice the small and sometimes larger changes, especially with the first born, as each milestone is ticked off, which is comforting. For the parents of children whose development is not in line with expectation, worry may well replace positivity, anxiety sometimes leading to negativity.
With guidance and support, being shown how to do things, "coached" along the way to get better the child begins to do things for themselves, by developing a self-awareness, so that they begin to talk and explain simply their needs and effective toilet training enables the child to independently take on that task. Before starting school, to undress and dress is important, especially for the teacher, who does not want to have to undress and dress thirty under-fives in order to do physical activity.
The first half of my teaching career was with large classes and no teaching assistant. I am not going to bang the drum for the past, but, as teachers, the lack of additional adult meant that we had to be self-sufficient and find methodologies for challenging and supporting all the children, across all subjects. The use of the integrated day supported that need, as children were often taught in small groups within the class. The development of independence was encouraged, within challenging tasks tailored to the needs of each group, some of which were collaborative, so that discussion underpinned decision making.
"Scaffolding" was provided largely by selecting appropriate models, for example using Dienes' multibase for exemplifying and solving mathematical problems. Storyboarding supported writing. Sharing good outcomes, with displays of children's work, both showed the possibilities and also created a pleasant working environment. It was my workshop for the year too.
Scaffolding, as a notion, appeared on my professional compass around 1986, with the arrival of the National Writing Project. This took off locally and the majority of schools joined the project, to good effect, as the writing process was stripped apart and put back together, within the already existing creative contexts. It enables structures to be created that sought to emphasise certain aspects of writing and to break away from the beginning, middle, end that had become the norm. Used across all subjects, scaffolds allowed drafting and redrafting to a purpose, always with an intended audience in mind. It was ok to stop at the first draft for some writing, to avoid overload.
The Overhead Projector (OHP), with the advent of the school photocopier, was useful to share and scaffold next learning steps.
Class and personal books were regularly created, to showcase outcomes.
The employment of Teaching Assistants has created interesting new dynamics within classrooms, in that, apart from the needs of the children, the additional adult(s) has/have to be allocated to tasks that are worthwhile for them as well as the children. This relatively new dynamic has the potential to debilitate the teacher, in that an over-reliance on additional adults can cause a form of panic if they are not present. I know that it is an area where schools are conscious of the need to explore TA deployment. It is important to be able to show the added value as a result of having additional adults at extra cost. Some teachers see the deployment of the TA as their approach to differentiation. If the tasking is not appropriate, this is unlikely to be the case.
It is essential to ensure that tasks accomplished with the support of the teacher, a teaching assistant, or through following a set scheme of instructions, can be checked through independent challenge. Without independence, the child can get to performance with ill-formed skills, so cannot fulfil the new task.
Let them stand and get strong. What they can do for themselves, let them do for themselves.
Learning to let go can be a hard decision for a parent or a teacher.
Post script
If you have an interest in trees, as I have, you will know that there have been several schools of thought about whether and how to stake young trees. There is a school of thought that trees grow stronger without stakes to hold the trunks; that the swaying in the wind actually enables the tree to ensure it develops its strength. Tall and thin may not enable long term survival.

I am creating a module that has a page that is intended to be a viewer for a certain kind of content. The content itself is a Drupal Book viewer meant to behave like an epub reader. Basically I want this page to be a stand-alone, theme-independent, full-screen "player."
To achieve this effect, I don't want to load the usual long list of CSS and JS files, including those from the current theme as well as any from modules that I am not interested in using. I want the page to load only those JS and CSS files that are required for basic Drupal functionality -- e.g. I want Behaviors to work and a few other things, such as overlays.
My question is, what are considered to be the essential JS and CSS files? I realize I can find a way to just dump a list of all files by module. But I am looking for information on importance. I realize this is a little vague and that there are probably a lot of answers that begin with "It depends ..." However, there must be some items that are more fundamental than others.
I am working in Drupal 7 and using hook_js_alter() and hook_css_alter() to remove (unset) items, and a preprocess function to add items.

GARDNER — Sacred Heart Church, the city's oldest Catholic church that closed in 2015, has recently been sold to the Coptic Orthodox Church, a Christian denomination that has its roots in Egypt.
According to Annunciation Parish Pastor Stephen Lundrigan, Sacred Heart Church, located at 166 Cross St., was sold for $290,000, with the deal closing on Sept. 18.
The original church building was erected in 1874 and subsequently burned down in 1887. A subsequent church building, the one that stands to this day, opened in 1893.
Lundrigan spoke about the sale helping with the parish's efforts to pay off its debts and renovate its properties still in use at a time when the parish is working to "open back up" and be an "available option for people to engage their faith."
"It's enriching this parish. It's assisting us. We have an aging population. We're looking toward the future," he said. "We're trying to be a lively, contributing member to the faith of this community."
Father Samuel Hanna, a priest with the St. Mark Coptic Orthodox Church of Boston, spoke about his congregation's purchase of the Sacred Heart Church property in Gardner.
St. Mark Coptic Orthodox Church of Boston has several churches in Massachusetts that are east of Gardner, and also a church in Nashua, New Hampshire.
Hanna said there has been an increase in Copts moving to communities along Route 2, saying there are now about 45 families in the Gardner area, but those families up until now haven't had a Coptic church that is within a close driving distance.
This increase is tied to what is going on in Egypt, where the Copts are a religious minority in a country that is Muslim-majority, leading to hostility and even violent attacks against them.
"The Coptic Orthodox Church are Christians from Egypt. With all of our latest, unfortunately, persecution, there has been a large wave of migrants over the last few years," Hanna said.
"For them to go to church as Christians, from a country where there is a lot of persecution, their church is a big part of their identity."
Since the acquisition of the Sacred Heart property, Hanna said, the Coptic Orthodox Church has started to hold services there on Sundays, and there are plans to do some renovations to the building moving forward.
Prior to the sale, he said Copts in Gardner were attending Annunciation Parish's Holy Rosary Church on Nichols Street, and also Faith Lutheran Church on Green Street.
He expressed gratitude to those churches for being a welcoming presence, and said the Coptic Orthodox Church is "very excited" to now open its own place of worship in this area.
"Slowly, the people are coming together and hopefully it becomes a home to anyone who is seeking Jesus Christ," he said.
The origins of the Coptic Orthodox Church in Egypt go all the way back to the first century A.D. when Gospel writer St. Mark came to the region to evangelize.
Hanna said "we're a very traditional church" that represents "an ancient faith in the modern world."
For the Catholic community in Gardner, the sale of Sacred Heart Church further crystallizes the merger that formed the Annunciation Parish in 2015.
Previously, the churches of Sacred Heart, Saint Joseph's on Pleasant Street, Holy Rosary on Nichols Street and Holy Spirit on Lovewell Street were all separate parishes.
The merger led to the closure of Sacred Heart and Saint Joseph's, while Holy Rosary and Holy Spirit have remained open, together forming the Annunciation Parish.
The merger of the churches followed the merger of Gardner's two Catholic schools, Sacred Heart and Holy Rosary, to form Holy Family Academy in 2014, which serves preschool through eighth grade.
The Sacred Heart School building, located on Lynde Street, was closed as part of that process, while the Holy Rosary School building on Nichols Street (located right next to the church) has remained open under the new Holy Family Academy name.
In 2016, the former Sacred Heart School property was sold to Chair City Church for $479,000, creating a new home for Chair City Church (which had been holding services at the Gardner Cinemas) after renovations to the building were made.
Earlier this year, Saint Joseph's Church was sold to Mission Street Church for $450,000, another example of a Gardner-based church buying one of the closed Catholic churches to create a new home for itself.
With all those closed buildings now sold, Lundrigan said it makes Annunciation Parish more viable because the parish no longer has to "shoulder the costs of those other properties" and is better positioned to save for the future and hopefully grow.
While he talked about those closed buildings as having a "sentimental and emotional value," the situation has a silver lining.
"It was a consolation to the people that the churches will be used again for the worship of God," he said.

Vineyard Wind, a New Bedford-based company already developing one large wind farm off the south coast of Martha's Vineyard, was one of three companies that won the right to develop additional wind farms in a highly competitive auction of federal waters Friday.
The three companies each bid $135 million for the right to lease one of three areas totaling 390,000 acres in federal waters located some 20 miles off the Vineyard shoreline. The 132,370-acre area for which Vineyard Wind won the bid is the farthest offshore.
Vineyard Wind is a partnership between Avangrid Renewables and the Danish company Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners. Vineyard Wind itself has a partnership agreement with Vineyard Power, the Island-based energy cooperative, which provides local assistance and seeks to ensure the Island community benefits from wind projects in the region.
"We are really excited that our partners won another offshore lease," said Richard Andre, president of Vineyard Power. "Our partnership is strong, and they are committed to listening to local communities."
Other winning bidders Friday were Equinor Wind U.S. LLC, and Mayflower Wind LLC. Eleven companies competed in the bidding process over two days.
The total of $405 million for the three lots is nearly 10 times the previous bidding record for offshore waters, federal officials said.
By comparison, Vineyard Power and then partner MV Offshore bid $167,000 for a provisional lease for 166,886 acres a few miles closer to shore just three years ago.
Federal energy officials say the record bids signal a strong and growing market for wind energy.
"With bold leadership, faster, streamlined environmental reviews, and a lot of hard work with our states and fishermen, we've given the wind industry the confidence to think and bid big," U.S. Secretary of the Interior Ryan Zinke said in a press release.
The winning developers will have nearly six years to test conditions and develop a construction plan. If the proposed wind farm passes a federal environmental review, then the developer will have a term of 33 years to build and operate the energy production facility.
The boom in wind farm development was created in part by state laws requiring energy distributors to purchase renewable energy.
A 2016 law passed by the state legislature and signed by Gov. Charlie Baker requires utility company to purchase 1,600 megawatts of alternative energy over the next decade.
If fully developed, the lots auctioned Friday could support 4.1 gigawatts of electricity, enough to power approximately 1.5 million homes.

First Man Review – Lights, Camera, LIFTOFF!
Thanks to our friends at Allied Integrated Marketing we were able to take part in and review the Oct 8th, FirstMan VIP Pre-Screening at Atlanta's Regal Atlantic Station. This event included a post-screening Q&A with none other than the film's director, Damien Chazelle and star, Ryan Gosling. Yes- You read that correctly – RYAN GOSLING!!!
Our AMT Insiders were able to capture the live Q&A and have included a link here for your viewing pleasure (disregard our iPhone quality). We loved the fact that a NASA official was the moderator!
Describing the moon landing, Damien spills that the dirty secret is that "space" is actually in Atlanta at Tyler Perry Studios, one of the first films to shoot there while they were still constructing the soundstages, and the moon at a nearby quarry. They didn't want to use a lot of green screens or digital effects so they needed a big open space to recreate the epic scenes and make it feel more like a documentary. They even got to deal with Atlanta's epic snow/ice storms but took it in stride. Big shoutout by Damien to the Atlanta film crew! Thanks, man!
Regal is offering 14,000 free tickets for military personnel for the first screenings on Thursday evening, October 11th! Click image for participating theatres near you.
