Attitude of Caregivers of the Patient with Schizophrenia
Background: The caregivers can make a substantial influence on the patients in the process of becoming healthy again. The present study was aimed to assess the severity of schizophrenia, and its relation with their caregiver's attitude. Methods: One hundred patients (male=50, female=50) with schizophrenia were recruited from psychiatry wards of different hospitals of Faisalabad though purposive sampling technique and their 100 caregivers were taken as sample. It was a correlational study carried out in 2017–18. Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale was used to assess the intensity of schizophrenic symptoms and Family Attitude Scale was used to estimate the attitude of the caregivers towards their schizophrenic patients. Results: There was significant positive relationship between positive symptoms of schizophrenia and critical attitude of the caregivers. The critical attitude of caregivers emerged as strong predictor for symptoms of schizophrenia and accounted for 23% and 30% variance respectively in the negative and positive symptoms of schizophrenic patients. Conclusion: The critical and negative attitude of relatives especially of primary caregivers can increase the severity of symptoms of patients with schizophrenia. The findings of the current study might be helpful for the caregivers and the health professionals to get acquainted with the issue of critical attitude and its impact on intensity of schizophrenic symptoms.

text: The Jumeira Mosque was built on the basis of the architectural tradition of the Fatima Dynasty in the Middle Ages. It can be regarded as a brilliant model of modern Islamic architecture. Here we can feel the glory of the Fatima Dynasty in the Middle Ages. This is the only mosque in Dubai that welcomes non-Muslim visitors (six days a week). Women wear headscarves during the visit. As one of Dubai's most beautiful landmarks, Jumeirah Mosque is built entirely of white stone. Its towering double spires complement the giant central dome. The mosque is large enough to accommodate up to 1,200 pilgrims. After the night falls, the whole mosque is shrouded by soft lights, highlighting its ingenious artistic design style and the beauty of holiness and elegance.

Border Imagination: Integration and Disintegration
Border Studies have introduced theories, historical studies, political investigations, and cultural production exploring the lived Border experience on both sides of the Mexican and USA divide. There have been shared communications amongst scholars on both sides of the Border and concomitant to those dialogues have been shared stories of family, community, etc. However, the stories with all their similarities have multiple perspectives due to different starting points of many writers and investigators. On the border they're multiple viewpoints that are more than "us versus them." These many viewpoints are bridged through the rich cultural production taking place in Mexico and the United States.
With the imagination one can span the centuries of history that separate and unite two countries and their tumultuous politics. Art bridges borders without having to resort to passports and official crossing stations. Literature reflects reality of communities that extend beyond borders because of a shared language, culture and religion. The revolving integration of disintegration of people taking place in communities along the border can be explored in its cultural production. Becoming and unbecoming who we see ourselves to be and how we conduct ourselves is a personal and community "revolution" that cannot and should not be stopped.
- Spanish American Studies

Step 7
Copy the debug.keystore file from your .android folder and paste into your JDK bin Folder. On my machine, it is this:
C:\\Program Files\\Java\\jdk1.7.0_79
Step 8
Open the command prompt. You can find it at Start Menu > All Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt.
Step 9
Copy the following code and paste it into a text editor like notepad or sticky-notes.
"C:\\Program Files\\Java\\jdk1.7.0_79\\bin\\keytool.exe" -exportcert -alias androiddebugkey -keystore "C:\\Users\\Kendra.android\\debug.keystore" | "C:\\openssl\\bin\\openssl.exe" sha1 -binary | "C:\\openssl\\bin\\openssl.exe" base64
Step 10
Make sure that you replace my paths, with the paths that you have. Your "jdk1.7.0_79" may be different and your username (where "Kendra" is in the script) is probably different.
Step 11
Copy your script and paste it into your Command Prompt. You will need to right click and select paste since you cannot use your keyboard shortcuts.
Step 12
Hit the Enter key on your keyboard.
Your Command Prompt should spit out some letters and numbers on the next line. Now check your Unity 5 project. The error saying that your key should be gone. If it is gone, you are good to go.
If your Unity project is still displaying an error, it is probably something along the line of OpenSSL not found. You will need to add the OpenSSL directory to your path. Continue on.

" We all live under the same sky, but we don't all have the same horizon" ~ Konrad Adenauer
Arts in the Parks was one of the featured events this past weekend in Steamboat Springs, CO. Judging by the attendance, I would say it was a great success. I enjoyed it all!
I was so happy to see the return of photographer, Kenny Tong! http://www.kennytong.com/ Once again, in my opinion, his photography was a real standout! It seems to me, his images are of places in China, where no ordinary man walks. It is no wonder that his forays into the hidden paradises of China, to capture exquisite scenery, last 2-3 months each year.
This year at Arts in the Park, I had my son Marc, a recent film student graduate by my side. Kenny's professional life started in the film industry. He was able to share some of his experiences with my son, and some of the reasons why he traded in his craft of filmmaking for a career in still photography, which he finds so fulfilling.
Keep up the great work, Kenny. I was glad to see on the Events calendar of your website www.kennytong.com that you will be sharing your art with the communities of Boulder and Carbondale, Colorado over the next few weeks.
Thanks for the well wishes to Marc, as he ponders what is ahead on the horizon for him and as he establishes his life as a filmmaker.

Math is seen as the realm of logic and rationality, but even so there is a lot of trickiness in the number world! From quick ways to do arithmetic to various statistical anomalies, these are 25 Easy Arithmetic Tricks You Can Start Using Right Now!
Last Updated on
Multiply by 5
To do this quickly, divide by 2 and then multiply by 10
Multiply by 4
This may seem obvious but to do this in your head, just double twice. Some people do this intuitively and others don't.
Hailstone numbers
Start with a random number. If it is even then divide by 2. If it is odd, multiply by 3 and add 1. If you keep going you will find that no matter where you started you will eventually hit 1. Like hailstones, the number will go up, and inevitably come back down. This is an example with 7:
7, 22, 11, 34, 17, 52, 26, 13, 40, 20, 10, 5, 16, 8, 4, 2, 1
Multiple of 3
Your math teacher may never have told you this but you can check if a number is a multiple of 3 simply by checking whether the sum of its digits is a multiple of 3.
You can't just put 10% back
If your boss ever tells you that he is going to cut your salary by 10% but let you work 10% more to make up for it, don't do it! Let's say you made $10 per hour. 10% off would be $9 per hour. Adding 10% back would be $9.90. Be careful what the percentage refers to!

It's Bernie Sanders versus Joe Biden. Or Biden versus Elizabeth Warren. Or Sanders versus Warren, when she isn't busy brutalizing Pete Buttigieg.
Nearing the top of a presidential main marked by its lack of acrimony, the four-candidate pile-up in Iowa is forcing campaigns to change their phrases of engagement in pursuit of even incremental advantages.
The reluctance to brawl is now a vestige of the past. In its place is spray of bullets in each course.
In a standard campaign, stated Howard Dean, the former Vermont governor who ran unsuccessfully for president in 2004, "You get to be the frontrunner, then everyone else makes positive you get taken down."
The difference this yr, he stated, is that "everyone's the frontrunner."
The rancor has resulted in a brand new round of hand-wringing by Democrats afraid of weakening the celebration ahead of the overall election — and by progressives scared of weakening their standing towards more average Democrats in the main.
Citing their alarm over the current sniping between the Sanders and Warren presidential campaigns, the liberal grassroots group Democracy for America implored the 2 to work collectively and cease attacking each other — unlikely, as a new rift opened over a CNN report that Sanders had advised Warren privately in 2018 that he did not consider a lady might win the presidency in 2020.
After Sanders' marketing campaign disputed the account, Warren appeared to verify it, saying in a prepared assertion that Sanders "disagreed" together with her belief that a lady might win.
"Progressives will win in 2020, however only if we don't let the company wing or Trump divide us," Democracy for America stated Monday in a tweet.
On the eve of the last debate earlier than the Iowa caucuses, comparable considerations have been evident on extra centrist floor as properly. William Owen, a Democratic Nationwide Committee member from Tennessee who has endorsed Biden, stated Monday that he is "significantly fearful" about celebration unity after the first marketing campaign.
"I feel the candidates should concentrate and focus their attention on the actual drawback, and that's Donald Trump," he stated, "not criticize one another."
But Democrats are notoriously worrisome — concerning the quality of their candidates, about fundraising, concerning the electoral power of Trump. And bellicosity is just not uncommon within the last stretch of a campaign.
In reality, it was not the skirmishing itself, however the scattershot nature of the hostilities, that marked a new turn in the race. Outlined until lately by an rare collection of one-on-one confrontations, the competition is now turning into a melee.
Three weeks before the state's caucuses, 4 Democrats are operating inside 5 proportion points of one another in Iowa, in accordance with the newest Des Moines Register/Mediacom/CNN survey. Behind them, an entire swath of candidates is polling under the state's viability threshold — each with supporters to offer the frontrunners on caucus day.
Sen. Cory Booker's departure from the race on Monday opened one other small nicely of help to remaining contenders. As well as, ideological lanes that when appeared more likely to outline much of the main's conflict stay blurred, increasing each candidates' pool of potential targets.
"We're in a stage the place individuals are in a civilized world say that they're highlighting distinction, which is a well mannered approach of saying attacking the stuffing out of one another," stated Philippe Reines, a longtime Hillary Clinton confidant.
The new, multi-directional high quality of the marketing campaign got here into focus in current days. First, Sanders intensified his criticisms of Biden, chastising him for his 2002 vote for the struggle in Iraq and on problems with Social Safety and chapter protections. The Sanders campaign believes it might draw some older, working-class voters from the former vice chairman's ranks of supporters.
Then, over the weekend, POLITICO reported on a script that Sanders' campaign produced for volunteers confronting supporters not solely of Biden, but in addition Warren and Buttigieg. Warren supporters, in accordance with the script, might be advised she is the candidate of "highly-educated, more affluent people who are going to point out up and vote Democratic no matter what" and that "she's bringing no new bases into the Democratic Get together." Sanders' marketing campaign went after Buttigieg for his lack of help amongst black voters and younger individuals.
On Sunday, Warren shot again, saying she was "dissatisfied" that Sanders was "sending his volunteers out to trash me." But in a jab at Sanders' final presidential campaign, she warned the social gathering couldn't abide a repeat of "the influence of the factionalism in 2016."
Left unsaid was Warren's own willingness to criticize her rivals. Just last month, she lit into Buttigieg for "a fundraiser that was held in a wine cave filled with crystals and served $900 a bottle wine," touching off the "wine cave" cycle of the campaign.
The back-and-forth-and-back again delighted Republicans, together with inside the White House, the place Trump advised in a tweet on Monday that Sanders was criticizing Warren as a result of "everyone is aware of her campaign is lifeless and need her potential voters."
With Warren "very indignant at Bernie," he teased, "Do I see a feud brewing?"
The aggressions and mini-aggressions are poised to realize new air on Tuesday night time, when the candidates debate in Des Moines. But there's danger in attacking too sharply. Kamala Harris and Julián Castro, who've both dropped out of the race, did not take pleasure in sustained bumps after issuing withering critiques of their rivals in previous debates.
Intra-party assaults, stated Gary Hart, the previous Colorado senator and two-time presidential candidate, "are never productive and only provide fodder to the opposite aspect."
"Individuals are uninterested in this," Hart stated in an e-mail, including that he regretted criticisms of former Vice President Walter Mondale within the Democratic main in 1984, when Mondale went on to lose in a 49-state landslide. "However it seems to be what the new era of 'strategists' promote by means of justifying their excessive retainers. Tearing the opponent down not often if ever adds followers to oneself."
In the 2004 campaign, a feud between Dean and Dick Gephardt was credited partially with John Kerry's surge to a surprise victory in Iowa. Dean stated Monday that "when you could have a multi-candidate race and individuals are ripping one another apart, then it hurts the ripper and the rip-ee."
Nonetheless, he stated, this yr, "The trustworthy fact is, I feel the candidates have been pretty mild with one another."
For a late-stage campaign, Dean stated, "This is commonplace."

A voice from the past whispers in my ear, Brethren, keep your powder dry.
From the way it looks the barrel should not need to be pulled unless you want to have a US made MSG90/ PSG1 trunion installed instead of a trunion extension. Personally I would not pull the barrel unless I was going to replace it. If it shoots good then I would just add the extension so the forearm is correctly supported. As they say.... "If it aint broke don't fix it".
I just sold a spare IGF US made PSG1/ MSG90 trunnion extension to another member last October.

Overall, I'm feeling prety solid about this. The charging handle will be replaced by a US made one for compliance, and also because the current one looks like a solid blob of black bubble-gum.

It looks like you have a really good start for your clone build. Now it just depends on how far you want to go with it.
You could add the receiver rails, silent bolt close, PSG 1 lower, PSG 1 trigger group and PSG 1 stock. Which would make an awesome clone but it would also be really expensive.
A much more affordable route would be to just build more of a precision Hk91 rather than a true PSG clone. Send a HK91 lower and trigger group to Williams trigger specialties for either his standard set trigger or his SG1 style set trigger and add a Mag Pul PRS2 stock. It will probably be a pretty accurate rifle either way.
I can not tell for sure just by looking which barrel you have. However, if your upper was put together around the time those receivers were imported there is a real possibility that might be an Urbach barrel (There may be some people on here that can tell from the photos). There were not many parts for PSG 1 and MSG 90 clone builds until fairly recently (The last 10 years or so). Back in the day there weren't very many PSG1 clone barrels to get and sometimes you had to wait a very long time to get one. Of course I guess it could just be a custom heavy barrel that someone had made but finding someone that can flute the chamber of an HK barrel is not an easy thing.
Thanks for the tip on the barrel, I will go down the internet wormhole and research that.
Case in point: there were SR9's on Gunbroker recently that had PSG1 trigger groups, stocks and so on. They sat around for awhile at the $3500 level and finally sold. Market price for all the PSG parts and furniture would have fetched probably $2000. So $1500 for an SR9 barreled receiver? Kind of a steal from that perspective.
Own: HK91, SP5k, G36k, HK416, P30L, 2x P8, P8A1, USP SD, USP9, USP9 FDE
Future: SP5? Assuming I can find an honest seller.
FWIW - I have a correct Dyer MSG90A1 on an hk receiver - was a labor of love that took me years to find all the parts including bolt carrier group and Hensoldt etc. has forward assist, free floated front site, and uses an Urbach barrel from when Murray was still cranking them out. I love the gun, it is very accurate but it was very expensive to build over 10 years ago. No idea what it would cost now, but it probably is crazy money.
If you think you have a decent barrel there then I say it is worth it to go with correct factory lower, trigger and stock which can be parted and sold separately and will hold their value. I would not bother with the rest of the more expensive permanent upgrades. You will still have a good, fun shooter and you can get your money out when you decide you have had enough. My $0.02.

McDermott-Chiyoda ink Cameron LNG incentives deal
McDermott International and its joint venture member Chiyoda have reached an agreement with Cameron LNG related to the construction of its LNG liquefaction project in Louisiana.
The agreement provides the opportunity for incentive bonus payments for achieving construction and commissioning milestones on specified dates for Trains 2 and 3, McDermott said in a statement on Friday.
The deal also aligns the start dates for any schedule-related liquidated damages to be consistent with the current schedule and fully aligns and strengthens the commitment of CCJV to complete the project in accordance with the current schedule.
The favorable financial impact of the agreement is incorporated in McDermott's previously issued guidance for 2019.
Since the initial award in 2014, McDermott and Chiyoda have provided the engineering, procurement and construction for the Cameron LNG project.
The project includes three liquefaction trains with a projected export capacity of more than 12 million tonnes per annum of LNG, or approximately 1.7 billion cubic feet per day.
As previously disclosed, the project was approximately 90 percent complete as of the end of the first quarter of 2019.
In its statement, Sempra Energy reminded that the commissioning of Train 1 at Cameron LNG continues to advance, and the first commissioning cargo was shipped from the facility earlier this year.
Consistent with previously disclosed timing, Train 2 and Train 3 are expected to begin producing liquefied natural gas (LNG) in the first quarter of 2020 and second quarter 2020, respectively.

Arrive on Monday, leave 11 days later on Friday. Program will provide a culture of family and an approach of ongoing support to solve life's problems. Dr. Hazen-Els is a licensed mental health therapist and will address mental health issues, spiritual issues, etc. David Els has a teaching degree, and MBA and has been in the construction business for 40 years. He was raised in a family that built a community and employed, as well as trained many individuals to become successful in their trades. The program is customized to the needs of the Veteran. Karen will be on site every day and available for individual sessions, however therapy can happen anywhere..in the kitchen preparing a meal, in the yard, walking the dogs, etc. David Els will be on site daily to address vocational interests. There will be a daily list of projects and tasks to be accomplished, demonstrating the importance of keeping oneself busy, while enabling veterans to recognize the importance of such a practice. Each person will leave with a plan and a phone number. We are family.
We have located a 4 1/2 acre farm in Littleton, NC. We are in the process of finding partners to help us procure the property and do light remodeling to prepare for our 8 Veterans and up to 6 dogs. We trust that God will prepare us for the path. Our goal is to run our first 10 day program the first part of June 2018.
We will keep our partners and interested parties notified thru the website, facebook, instagram and twitter as to the process of our plan. I can't wait to say, we've got the farm and we are partnering with our community to begin being a part of the solution in healing our Veterans.

The observation of the Jewish festival called Hanukkah includes the lighting of candles for 8 consecutive days. It's a time of celebrating the miracle of the Temple oil lasting 8 days during a time of crisis in the 2nd century BC. The story is preserved in the book of I Maccabees. This Jewish holiday alluded to in the Gospels (John 10, mentioned as the Festival of Dedication) just ended.
Recently, a very small pottery sherd with a menorah scratched on it was found in Jerusalem. While the potsherd found has nothing to do with Hanukkah, the sketching of this 7-branch candelabra on it communicates to us just how important the menorah was in the days of the 2nd Temple period.
This potsherd was found in the Temple Mount Sifting Project. This "sifting project" is an attempt to salvage some of the thousands of tons of ancient debris that was illegally discarded from the Temple Mount by the Wakf Islamic Trust in 1999. 300+ truckloads of this precious debris were dumped into the Kidron Valley over the course of several years. Spear-headed by Gabriel Barkay and others, these piles of debris were then taken to the Mt. of Olives where it is carefully sifted in hopes of at least finding something significant from the days of both the 1st and 2nd Temple.
In the video below Dr. Barkay, the leading scholar on Jerusalem archaeology, discusses this very interesting find. "Gaby" (as he is referred to even today) was my "Jerusalem Archeology" professor for one year (1981-82) while studying at Jerusalem University College (formerly called the Institute of Holyland Studies). From an archaeologist's point of view, he shares much detail about the sherd. He dates it to the Roman Period, most likely to the Byzantine or Late Roman period (324-640 AD).
While the potsherd is quite small (and could have been easily missed while digging), it sheds light on this Jewish cultural centerpiece.
Here is the video:

The Big Diabetes Lie
GLP-1 inhibits glucagon secretion (32,33). In type 2 diabetes, excessive glucagon secretion in relation to the plasma glucose aggravates fasting hyperglycemia by stimulating hepatic glucose output (34). Exogenous administration of GLP-1 in type 2 diabetic patients leads to a significant suppression of glucagon secretion together with a normalization in fasting plasma glucose (29). The counterregulatory response of glucagon secretion in hypoglycemia is unaffected by GLP-1 administration (35). GLP-1-based therapies will therefore not bear an intrinsic risk for hypoglycemia (36).
Concerning gastrointestinal functions, GLP-1 slows gastric emptying and inhibits gastric acid secretion (18). In the central nervous system, GLP-1 acts as a neurotransmitter in the hypothalamus and stimulates satiety directly (37). Continuous GLP-1 application over 6 weeks in type 2 diabetic patients produced significant weight loss due to reduced food intake and increased satiety (37,38). Whether the effects of GLP-1 on satiety in humans are mainly mediated by the retardation of gastric emptying through a feedback loop or are centrally mediated is not completely clear yet (39,40).
In animal studies as well as in vitro studies including studies with human islets GLP-1 causes an increase of beta cell mass. This increase is explained by a stimulation of islet cell neogenesis (41-43) from precursor cells as well as an inhibition of apoptosis of beta cells (42,44). In man, the effect of GLP-1 on the beta cell mass cannot easily be quantified, but indirect measures of beta cell function have shown an improvement after GLP-1 application (45). in vitro, in isolated human islets, GLP-1 improves insulin secretion and islet cell morphology (46).

All you need is a proper diet of fresh fruits and vegetables and get plenty of exercise and you'll be fine. Ever heard those words from your doctor? If that's all heshe recommends then you're missing out an important ingredient for health that he's not telling you.

Background: There is a high medical need for a well tolerated parenteral form of a broad spectrum antifungal forthe treatment of severe deep mycoses of hospitalized patients. Current antifungal agents available for parenteral use have limitations in antifungal spectrum and safety, respectively. RO0094815 (1) is a new triazole with a broad antifungal spectrum. However, its low water solubility (<0.1μg/mL) restricts its use to the oral route.
Methods: To improve its water solubility, a series of prodrugs were synthesized to generate the active drug (1) by hydrolysis in plasma followed by intramolecular rearrangement of an intermediate (3). The physicochemical properties and conversion rates in rat, monkey and human plasma of the prodrugs have been studied.
Results: Among all prodrugs, RO0098557 (2), a triazolium salt type prodrug of 1 was selected because it has a high water solubility (>1g/mL) and sufficient chemical stability for parenteral use. 2 was quickly and stoichiometrically converted into 1 in human plasma (T1/2 = < 1 min).
Conclusions: The triazolium prodrug exhibits high water solubility, chemical stability, and fast and quantitative bioconversion to the active drug and has therefore, the appropriate profile for a new parenteral antifungal agent.

Colors are an integral part of our lives. The colors found in nature are important to us because we have adapted to survive in nature!
In the modern concept, manipulation of colors to get a desired effect is believed to be both subjective and technical. Basically, the multitude of colors we see are divided into groups:
Primary colors (colors in their own right; they cannot be made by mixing other colors) — red, yellow and blue;
Secondary colors (colors we get by mixing the primary colors) — green, purple, orange, etc.; and
Tertiary colors (colors we get by mixing the primary and secondary colors).
And the main bands of colors are six: red, orange, yellow, green, blue and violet, and according to Sir Issac Newton, (1642-1747) mathematician and physicist and one of the eminent scientific intellects of all time, there are seven colors: red, orange, yellow, green, indigo and violet. But the popular pattern with which an artist creates an ever-lasting colorful impression holds up to a set of twelve colors: black, grey, white, pink, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, brown and azure.
An expert on colors stated that: Colors by themselves are not a fundamental property of light but are often related to the physiological response of the eye to light. The color of an object depends on both the physics of the object in its environment and the characteristic of the perceiving eye and brain. It is believed that the human eye can distinguish thousands of different colors – shades, hues and tints! Most humans have three types of color receptors, the organs that receive colors and transmit them to the brain, but many animals, such as some species of spiders, some marsupials, birds, reptiles and several types of fish, and some human females, have four types!
It is interesting to know that a person's perception of the color of any object depends not only on the spectrum of light reflecting from its surface but also on a number of contextual cues so that the color is perceived as relatively constant. This effect is known as "color constancy". For example, when we think of milk, we think of it in 'white' color, but not in any other color; when we think of blood, we think of it in 'red', but never in black, blue or green though there are some animals whose blood is other than red; when we think of a leaf of a plant, we see it in green in our mind's eye. Just because we are now able to define color and give it a colorful terminology, it does not mean that the concept and use of color are new phenomena. And in the present modern societies, color is in every aspect of life in general – just try to imagine how difficult it would be to have all 'white' toothbrushes in a family of four, they can never know which is whose, and how hard it would be for you to find your own car in a parking-lot when all the cars are painted 'black'! In nature, the animals have mastered the art of camouflage by having colors or by changing their colors to suit their surroundings, and some animals are with bright body colors, usually yellow and red, to warn their predators that they are toxic and so should be avoided.
The colors the first people (according to the records available, between 40,000 and 10,000 years B.C.) used mostly were: red, black and white. The Magdalenian painters, the people who were supposed to have lived between 18,000 and 10,000 years B.C. and drawn pictures of animals on the faces of rocks in the open, and on the floors, walls and ceilings of the caves in several places across Europe, used yellow and brown. By using crude methods and raw materials – minerals found in the earth, water rich in calcium, vegetables and animal oils – these cave painters of Magdalenian were able to produce awesome "polychrome art"!
Though there has never been an undisputed explanation for the purpose of drawing these paintings, one very strong explanation we all must agree to is that 'art' is a form of expression and man needs to express his thoughts in one form or through one medium or the other;
Colors have been an integral part of the human societies since prehistoric times. From stone-age man, cave man, man in ancient civilizations to the present computer-man, all have been influenced by colors and all have used colors in their everyday life.
The man in primitive societies used color for war-paint (drawing colorful designs on their face and body in order to frighten the enemy and also to show off their status), for decorating the deities, shrines, idols, totems; the man in the medieval societies used color for their clothes, for decorating their dwellings, and more importantly, for representing themselves in other social activities, such as war, sport, traditional ceremonies, etc. Though there has been no agreement on the purpose of drawing these cave paintings, the time period and the material used among the experts, almost every eminent historian and art critic opines that the awesome colorful cave art was thought-provoking and probably this art later became the 'father of religion'!
The eye receives the light reflected from the surface of an object and sends it to the brain which then acts or reacts by creating impulses depending on the 'color' the light brings in, which, in turn, control the person's or animal's behavior. It is like we smile at a smiling baby but turn away from or wince at a crying baby. The same way, studies have shown that people react in different ways to different colors. [This assumption may also depend upon the culture, time period and religious aspects.] It is a proven fact that when we see items of food in red color, we tend to get hungry faster and drool more than when we see food in pale colors.
Some of the most common colors and the methods (positive and negative)' they generate in people and animals are:
Positive: solid, intelligence, modesty, practicality, maturity
Negative: old age, obsolete, rusty
Positive: mystery, secrecy, tradition
Negative: fear, evil, death, mourning
Positive: power, calmness, success, trustworthiness {the most common and most liked color}
Positive: earth and nature, simplicity, seriousness
Negative: drab, uninteresting
Positive: harmony, health and healing, nature, prosperity, money
Negative: greed, jealousy
Positive: affordability, fun, youth, creativity, celebration
Positive: royalty, justice, fantasy and dream, luxury, wealth
Positive: excitement, action, adventure, love, passion, food
Negative: danger, death, caution, anger, hunger
Positive: simplicity, cleanliness, innocence, purity, peacefulness
Negative: death, mourning (in certain cultures)
Positive: cheerfulness, playfulness, curiosity, amusement, intellect
Negative: flashy, carelessness, harmful {the most difficult color for the eye}
Positive: femininity, flamboyance, openness, friendliness
Negative: carefree, demanding attention
Colors & Computers:
People who work with colors in their profession or occupation should have some basic knowledge of the science of colors and color combination, and how colors influence the moods of people and animals.
Colors change to different shades and hues depending on the material they are projected (printed) on. A certain color may look pale when it is used on a piece of cloth that absorbs liquids, and the same color looks bright when it is used on a glossy paper, and yet looks with a different hue when used on a plastic sheet. And a color combination made on the computer screen may not be the same when printed on a paper – it is not that it changes into a different color, but gives out a different shade or hue.
To gain mastery over the use of color combination, an artist, painter or logo design team or logo designer must have some basic knowledge of the dynamics and terminology of the color and color combination. Some of them are as follows:
"Chromatics" – the study of colors physiologically; "color psychology" – the study of identifying the effects of color on human emotions and activities; "chromatic therapy" – using color psychology scientifically ('chromatic therapy' is used as a form of alternative medicine attributed to various Eastern traditions); "color theory" – the art of color mixing and the visual impact of color combination; "color code" – a system for displaying information using different colors; "color contrast"; "optical illusion" – a condition in which the eye (the perception of color or vision) is manipulated into believing something that is not there or something that is not what it actually is; and so on.
Colors and Website Design:
When it comes to web-designing on computers, designers had been encouraged to stick to the 'web-safe' colors which were a set 216 colors (colors with their shades and hues) commonly used. Therefore only 22 colors can be considered "really safe" colors to use in web-designing because they are relatively consistent.
A logo design is the most repeated and frequently displayed symbol of a business, and "color" plays a major part in creating a logo design.
A common mistake committed by many entrepreneurs is using more colors in their logo designs. Each color creates a single message or association. So if you are using 5 colors in your logos or brands, it will deliver 5 different messages. Unfortunately, consumers cannot handle that much perception.
The first thing you should consider in finding the appropriate color is your competitors. It is not wise to copy the color scheme of the leading brands for it will create an impression that you're just a second-rate version.
Also, pay attention to the demographics of your market such as gender, age and culture. A trendy neon green might appeal to youngsters but painful to look at for your average grandmas and grandpas. In a way, it sets the limitation of the color you can use.
For more information about this topic I suggest you pay a visit to our other blog posts for it offers a comprehensive discussion of the dos and don'ts of colors and logo structures and what it all means.

if you feel that it's not getting warmer then you are not aware about Global Warming and Green House Gases. every citizen in the world knows the reason why our climate drastically change for the last 20 years. and it's all because of all the pollutants man contributes to the ozone layer that protects Earth from the harmful rays from the sun. yes, as the day, weeks, months, years goes by...climate will climb up to even 34 for the next 10 years if man will continue to emit carbon house gases.

M&U launches apprenticeship video with Taylor Wimpey! Now taking apprentice applications
Mitchell & Urwin, a Yorkshire-based stone and brickwork company, has released a new video timed to National Apprentice Week (5 – 9 March 2018) to encourage more young people into becoming bricklayers. The company is also taking applications for its award-winning Apprentice Academy programme, the deadline for which is 30 April 2018.
Over the last three years, Mitchell & Urwin has taken on 49 apprentices, roughly 25% of its workforce. An additional 10% of the site workforce serves as mentors to the young recruits. This programme of investment resulted in the company winning the national CITB Apprentice SME Employer Award 2017. It plans to continue this growth in 2018, starting with its new recruitment video.
The company hopes the video, made in collaboration with Taylor Wimpey, one of the UK's leading house builders, will help shift the stereotypical perception of bricklayers by including on the ground feedback from some of its current apprentices.
'For young people who prefer to work outdoors rather than in an office, bricklaying can be an immensely rewarding career. Financially, it's also more lucrative than many people expect. And with a nationwide building skills shortage, it's far easier to be assured of a job,' explains Richard Urwin, founder of Mitchell & Urwin.
Urwin, who started as a bricklayer aged 17, is proof of where a bricklaying apprenticeship can take you, as his company is now the largest brick and stonework provider in Yorkshire.
'University fees and a shortage of jobs once they leave, are forcing many young people to looking at alternatives. Apprentice programmes like ours help school leavers learn a valuable trade and earn a living while they get their qualification. The huge sense of achievement they get after building someone's home is an added bonus,' says Urwin.
Could you become a Mitchell & Urwin Apprentice bricklayer?
- you love to work outdoors
- you like to see the results of your hard work at the end of each day
- you want each day to be different
- you like to feel pride in the work you do
- you're driven, committed and passionate
- you're a team player with good communication skills
- you have achieved A to C grades in English and Maths
- you want to have great earning potential
- you potentially want a stepping stone into a bigger role in the building industry
- working 39 hours a week
- you live in Yorkshire (all of the Mitchell & Urwin build sites are in Yorkshire)
The M&U Apprentice programme includes:
- up to a four-year apprentice framework
- on-site bricklaying experience while attending college on a day or block release programme
- apprentices can join straight from school, midway through college or once their course is completed
- they are paired with an apprentice partner – their first two-and-one gang
- they have a dedicated mentor who will work side by side with them for unparalleled levels of continuity and support
- branded work clothing and tools of the trade
- ongoing group training sessions covering issues like safety
- weekly wages based on minimum wage for their age
- the offer of a permanent role with Mitchell & Urwin or at a client
- the opportunity to fulfil their ambition to become a site manager, quantity surveyor or architect for those who show the aptitude
Anyone interested in applying to the Academy should send their CV to email@example.com or visit www.mitchellandurwin.com/training for more information. To watch the video, go to https://youtu.be/kiL4tdjL5cY

VIRTUAL Sessions
At Breaking Barre, we offer a large selection of studio sessions that can effectively serve as your entire fitness program or supplement other types of fitness. We offer strength, cardio and restoration sessions. Find a workout that works for you.
Our most popular session fuses ballet, yoga and Pilates postures with both small and large-range-of-motion exercises using a neutral spine for maximum safety. You'll use your body weight, hand and ankle weights, light props and the barre to target muscles in your arms, legs, seat, abs, chest and back and then engage in static, passive and dynamic stretching. We encourage each individual to modify postures and focus on developing a mind-body connection. Our method burns fat, builds long, lean muscle, strengthens joints and improves flexibility. (Sticky socks are recommended for this session.)
Think Classic Barre, but shorter and slightly more intense. You'll perform many of the same strength-building exercises and stretches to achieve a complete full-body workout in just 40 minutes. (Sticky socks are recommended for this session.)
This session incorporates Classic Barre elements with an emphasis on ballet postures and graceful movements designed to tone long, lean muscle. You don't need to be a ballerina to participate, but you'll feel like one afterward! (Ballet shoes or ballet socks are recommended for this session.)

This session requires some yoga experience and is not intended for a beginner. (Bare feet or sticky socks are recommended for this session.)
hatha flow yoga
This session provides an arc shaped format, beginning and ending with pranayama (breathing) and mindful relaxation. In between, a balance of time in asana (postures) and flow is incorporated to build strength. An abundance of stretching is scattered throughout the session to counter strength-building components. Challenge yourself to find that mind-body connection, and leave feeling re-energized mentally and physically. Poses are safe and effective for all fitness and experience levels. (Bare feet or sticky socks are recommended for this session.)
Roll Restore Release
Keep your body ageless and agile with a Roll Restore Release class!
