These remedies have been used for ages but the advent of technology in the recent times has resulted in flourishment and growth of herbal joint and muscle support supplements. Nowadays, more and more people are beginning to realize the benefits of herbal cure and are beginning to adopt it in their lives.
Importance of Musculoskeletal system:
Muscles, bones and ligaments broadly comprise the musculoskeletal system. While there are other organs which complete the musculoskeletal system, these three are the key ones. The body's musculoskeletal system allows humans to perform all sorts of physical activities. The brain does give the order, but it is this system that executes to make the body work physically. This is why it is so important to get healthy joints, muscles and bones.
The complete frame of the body is made of bones. Two separate bones meet to form a joint at different body parts, including knees, wrists, elbows, etc. At the joints, ligaments are responsible for holding the two separate bones together. Bones are moved by muscles for making the joint work. So, when the joints, muscles and bones work in a synchronized manner, the body performs all kinds of action painlessly and smoothly. Herbal muscle and bone supplements ensure exactly that.
Musculoskeletal system of the body is under continuous pressure. There are several factors which cause strain to this system and too much strain can wear the system out. Herbal muscle and bone supplements keep this system strong so that an individual can stay physically active and agile. They also improve joint flexibility, so are great to get healthy joints.
Freeflex capsules:
Freeflex capsule is a highly recommended herbal bone and joint support pills known to improve bone and muscle strength while also ensuring joint flexibility. It is a completely natural product with powerful herbal ingredients such as Ashwagandha, Guggul, Suranjan, Asthisanghar, Chobchini, Godanti Hadtal and Rasna extract.
All these herbs offer various benefits, including improving blood circulation, enhancing nutrient absorption rate, purifying blood and also fighting against diseases like Arthritis, Gout and Rheumatism. This herbal supplement keeps the musculoskeletal system completely healthy and sound. For those wishing to get healthy joints, muscles and bones, this product must certainly be given a try.
Factors leading to weak muscles and bones:
Some causes of weak bones include deficiency of crucial vitamins and minerals, unhealthy lifestyle, poor diet, excessive level of acid, certain, infections, dysfunctional liver and kidney, higher toxicity level in the body and poor digestion. These causes also result in immobile joints.
Even diseases like Rheumatism and Arthritis deteriorate bones and joints. Aside from these, even something as natural as aging results in weaker organs. Herbal muscle and bone supplements fight with all these causes to make sure that the bones and joints function just the way they should.

Robert's Pick: I'll admit, my interesting in brawlers has waned in the recent years. Long ago, I loved taking control of Cody, Mike, Billy, Jimmy, or any character with those stereotypically American names and beating the crap out of anyone within reach, regardless of whether they were on-screen or not. But a lack of innovation, changed me from pugnacious justice seeker to a dispirited pacifist.
But lately, I've been spending time with Penny-Punching Princess which mixed melee-based combat with capitalism. In execution, it's a simple brawler. Beyond the two-button fighting system, the game will have you spinning the stick on your right Joy-Con, in an effort to squeeze coin from unconscious foes. When things get too tough, the game permit players to spend their in-game currency to bride foes, traps or even pay the God of Money to rain down boulders. It's delightfully offbeat, simple and challenging and allows me to toss money around haphazardly, so it also works as a vicarious pursuit. This week you can squander your income on much worse things than on Penny-Punching Princess.
Matt's Pick (Editor, DigitallyDownloaded): Otome visual novels have taken us back to the era of the Shinsengumi (Hakuoki) and the time where Yoshiwara was at its peak (The Men of Yoshiwara). With The Charming Empire we're going to get something even more modern; the era of Japan just a decade or two before all hell breaks loose with World War 2.
I'll admit that the Taisho era is not a part of Japanese history I'm too familiar with, so I'm quite keen on seeing how this otome visual novel, from D3 Publisher, puts a spin on it. Given the quality of The Men of Yoshiwara – also a D3 production – I've got no doubt that I'll get a real kick out of this one too… and be inspired to learn something about yet another period of Japan's long history that I'm less familiar with than I should be.
I'm going to cheat a bit on this one game recommendation and mention a second game, too. Fakku – a specialist adults-only manga and games publisher – is releasing the first game localisation that it has taken on itself – Honey Select Unlimited. I have no idea if Honey Select will turn out to be a good game – I would be surprised if it does, but it's a notable release for having the most insanely in-depth character creator in a video game ever.
The very idea of being able to create people in such fidelity in a video game – especially an adult video game (and especially one with VR support, no less), is one that opens up such a sociological can of worms that it's going to be fascinating to play Honey Select, and then pick apart all that it means. So I'm not technically recommending Honey Select here, but what I am saying is that it's perhaps the most interesting game release we've seen in the year to date.
Zack's Pick (Senior Editor, RPG Site): While I am still in the process of covering it for my outlet, I can't deny how drawn I am to Long Gone Days, an independent RPG about a dystopian world that is currently in the midst of all-out war. The bleak storytelling is supplemented by gameplay mechanics that include meaningful NPC interaction, on-foot exploration, and turn-based combat.
On that last point, this is not your traditional system where you're simply choosing actions from a menu and waiting for a dice roll. Instead, after you decide to attack, you are then able to aim at certain spots of an enemy's body. This isn't an easy decision, either. You may want to get that headshot, but there's a greater chance the enemy will evade the attack. On the other hand, if you go for the body, you will likely be successful in inflicting damage, but it won't deal a whole lot.
There is also a story where your choices, whether during conversations and certain sequences, actually matter to the way in which the plot unfolds. I am still collecting my thoughts, but right now, I am enjoying both the world and the gameplay hooks Long Gone Days is presenting to me. In what is a relatively light week for game releases, you should consider giving this one a look.
Jeremy's Pick: Every once in a while, I feel pretty okay making a pick-of-the-week not because of my personal knowledge of the lore or background of a game, but rather just for "reasons." This week, my pick is Reverie for the PS Vita, and my "reasons" are: First, developer Rainbite Limited decided to release this as a Vita-exclusive title, and I'm all about showing support for that kind of boldness. And second, the soundtrack to Reverie is being released on vinyl record through merch-house The Yetee, and because my hobby of collecting game music on vinyl is out of control, I have no choice but to buy both of these things sight-unseen and pleasantly marinate in my ridiculous penchant for outdated forms of entertainment. This week Reverie is a perfect storm for that, and I'm running with it. And so should you.
Ryan's Pick: My clear choice for this week is Reverie for the PS Vita. First and foremost, I love my PS Vita – it's a wondrous console. I love that Rainbite made the conscious choice to continue to support the Vita. Reverie gives many nods to a lot of games that I love, and most importantly, it's weird. Maybe it's because I'm weird myself, but I always have had a penchant for playing games with a weird premise, characters, or art style. Just ask Robert, he knows my love for Chuck-D-Head in Decap Attack. Many moons and idioms ago I too thought that a washing machine monster would be a formidable boss, so I tip my cap to Rainbite for making such a thing into a reality. I'm very excited for this one, and again, really happy to see support for the Vita.

Use These Scientific Ways to Slow Down Your Memory Decline
Dec 08
'Fitness' is the most recent buzzword in town! Being fit is a craze and passion among youth and even aged alike. Finding fitness freaks in every nook and corner of modern cities is a common phenomenon all across the globe. Magazines, health & fitness websites, colleagues, friends, and social media – you will find endless discussions about ways to be physically fit. However, what we are lacking is the realization of need and availability of knowledge and sources to keeping your brain healthy.
Brain health is equally important as physical health; including crucial mental functions such as planning, memorising and reasoning. As we age, our brain cells impair and memory lapses. But, ageing is not the only cause of a cognitive decline. Although genes contribute to mental health, lifestyle habits are also critical. Mental sickness or depression symptoms are not new to the modern lifestyle. According to a recent study, approximately 41% of the world population is suffering from some kind of slow but disastrous memory loss symptoms.
A significant change in lifestyle habits can slow down your cognition decline
- Be physically active to trigger endorphins
You don't have to be an athlete and join a gym to lift dumbbells to keep your brain healthy. A 30-minute daily brisk walk can attenuate the risk of mental diseases like dementia and Alzheimer's. It boosts proteins and endorphins, which lift your mood and communication.
- Mental exercises to boost cognitive skills
Playing games, reading, socialising and travelling are intrinsic to stimulate brain cells. Some brain games and puzzles improve multitasking skills and problem-solving skills. Read as much as you can whether it's a newspaper or a fiction or nonfiction. The more you read, the lower the risk of cognitive impairment. Interaction with people is also paramount to keep your brain healthy as you think logically while communication.
- Find ways to manage stress
You should meditate to control stress and stay equanimous in tough circumstances. When you're stressed, cortisol hormone sprouts up and damages brain cells. Relaxation therapies like yoga and meditation can improve your memory and lighten up your mood.
- Healthy Diet
Eat healthy to stay healthy! Your food should be nutritious enough so that your body can assimilate all nutrients required for its better functions. Omega fats are highly recommended to people to improve cognitive function. Eat whole grain food, herbal food, and fruits and vegetables to avoid the risk of inflammation of brain cells.
There is no right time to start living 'more healthily'. You should start as you feel to manage your life in healthy ways. You can take control of your longevity with exercise, healthy eating, and stress management.

Session 16: Awareness and Preparedness in Integrative Risk Management
Distrust of Tsunami Vertical Evacuation Buildings
1Earth Observatory of Singapore, Nanyang Technological University; 2Climate Policy Group, ETH Zürich; 3International Centre for Aceh and Indian Ocean Studies, Aceh, Indonesia; 4Faculty of Statistics, Syiah Kuala University, Banda Aceh, Indonesia
Along the subduction zones of the world (including the Pacific Ring of Fire), tsunamis may strike coastlines within 15-30 minutes following an earthquake. For cities in flat, coastal areas, tsunami vertical evacuation (TVE) buildings or artificial mounds may provide the only means of escape for many coastal residents. However, the effectiveness of TVE structures depends on societal trust, an issue that has not been researched. Our study focuses on nearby residents' (n=200) trust in TVE buildings during a strong earthquake and spontaneous mass evacuation on 11-April-2012 in Banda Aceh, Indonesia.
This earthquake did not produce a tsunami, but the population had previously experienced the devastating 2004 tsunami. Several TVE buildings had been built in coastal areas of Banda Aceh city during the post-2004 reconstruction. We find that most people who evacuated did not evacuate to the nearby TVE buildings in 2012 and do not intend to do so in a future evacuation, instead preferring to evacuate horizontally to inland destinations. Most people doubt that the TVE buildings are strong and tall enough to withstand a tsunami; the fact that the 2004 tsunami caused near-total destruction in these areas may be the most important reason for this. Demographic factors, disaster experience, and risk perceptions do not substantively differ between those who prefer to evacuate to the TVE building and those who prefer to evacuate inland. People would be more likely to evacuate to a TVE building if it were the village mosque, and if it had available food, water, and medicine. Research on these issues in other locations with TVE structures would make an important contribution toward making TVE structures more effective.
Disaster Management Awareness Program in Medical Schools in Nepal: An Inclusive and Comprehensive Approach to Build Community Resilience
Shree birendra Hospital, Nepal
Nepal is a South Asian country extremely vulnerable to natural disasters such as floods, landslides, fire, drought, earthquakes and epidemics killing hundreds of people each year. Unstable government, difficult terrain, variable climatic conditions, active tectonic processes, unplanned settlement, poor construction practices, dense and increasing population, poor socioeconomic conditions and low literacy rates are the compounding factors.
The devastating Gorkha earthquake 2015 revealed many pitfalls. Lack of comprehensive disaster management education and community awareness were identified as the crucial factors. Medical personnel have a pivotal role during the whole spectrum of the disaster namely: response, relief and rehabilitation phases.
A comprehensive educational disaster program tailor made for Nepalese context would be very beneficial to build the community resilience. Disaster management awareness program in medical schools in Nepal is such a program to educate the young professionals, aware the community as a first responder and build a network of disaster management agencies.
The module consists of small group interactive session of eight lectures delivered by subject matter experts to fourth year medical students divided into six groups. The lectures focuses on introduction to disasters, complex crisis situation, vulnerable groups identification and their social inclusion, personal safety, structural and functional components, National disaster management framework, humanitarian clusters and disaster preparedness.
The pilot project is currently running in the Nepal Army Institute of Health Sciences (NAIHS) in Kathmandu Nepal. In the next academic session the project will be implemented in other medical institutions of Nepal. This is a joint project of Nepalese Army and office of the defense cooperation United States. The project will evaluate the students prior to the course, at the end of the course and after five years to assess the implementation of their knowledge.

Integrating Partners and Resources to Enhance Community Preparedness
National Association of County and City Health Officials, United States of America
The National Association of County and City Health Officials (NACCHO) represents the United States' 2800 local health departments, working to help mitigate, respond and recover from all types of disasters. We engage with health departments of all sizes and with various forms of governance ranging from decentralized local government to centralized state governments. NACCHO also works with federal partners, including Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Department of Homeland Security, to assist in the development, practical application and execution of best practices to address a spectrum of public health security threats.
Faced with staff shortages and budget cuts, LHDs are expected to protect their communities with limited resources. This presentation will outline three ways in which NACCHO has worked to assist LHDs in this work by identifying previously underutilized community resources that local communities can tap into. First, we have leveraged existing infrastructure to expand local surge capabilities. Second, we have cultivated community partnerships to provide access to networks of resources. Thirdly, we have developed social media tools that complement existing strategies and increase local capacity. The goal of these projects has been to increase capacity for preparedness and response while limiting the burden on local health departments and surge on healthcare facilities during a catastrophic event.
Any type of mass casualty event will result in large numbers of people being sick or injured, and needing care. With this high demand comes a surge on medical facilities, causing emergency departments, clinics and medical offices to become crowded. Crowding leads to delays in seeing providers so patients experience a delay in receiving information and appropriate treatment. These projects were designed with this scenario in mind. To strengthen local capacity to respond to an event, we have used innovative approaches, integration and collaboration as described below.

Key Design Components of an International Field Course on Hazards and Disaster Risk Reduction
University of Waterloo, Canada
One of the most effective learning approaches for the study of hazards and disaster risk reduction is the immersive and experiential "field course". This presentation outlines some of the key design components used in a recent joint undergraduate/graduate field course held over a 3 week period on the island of Java, Indonesia. The goal of this presentation is to assist other educators in designing effective field-based courses exploring the hazards and disasters theme. Numerous field course outlines were consulted, and pedagogical materials on field course design were consulted before key elements were selected. These key elements included: pairing with local academics to facilitate field course logistics, employment of full-time local assistants/translators who were 'embedded' in the course, allowing students to select and design their own research topic within the broad 'hazards and disaster risk reduction' umbrella, and using field course sites as a backdrop for student-led field presentations. One additional and important design element involved pre-trip student fundraising to support an Indonesian organization working with vulnerable and hazard-affected individuals, and the reasoning behind this course element will be explained in this presentation.

Role of Women in Energy Conservation: Exploring Link between Energy Conservation and Women Economic Empowerment
National Defence University,, Pakistan
Energy conservation takes to decrease energy supply and demand gap. Mostly energy conservation strategies highlight the energy conservation by emphasizing efficient energy technologies; while ignoring the efficiency in contact to socio-economic construct of energy utility. Referred to social construct of energy conservation implies the ability and willingness to reduce energy consumption or using less energy for a constant service. Economic empowerment implies to make and act upon economic decisions. The enhanced level of women economic empowerment may promote energy care in the society. This study is to explore the link between energy conservation and women economic empowerment and to assess the energy conservation trend among the economically empowered women. The study utilizes Focused Delphi to describe the link between energy conservation and women economic empowerment by using the concepts of linkage, possibility of practice and intensity of practice in three rounds. Exploratory Delphi to measure about the manifestation for energy conservation among economically empowered women by using the concepts of drivers and activities for energy conservation. The energy conservation trends found positive 63.25% and negative 26.75% in economically empowered women, positive 43.75% and negative 45% in not economically empowered women. The study is contribution to organize civil society to manage the energy demand for sustainable development.

Iran Disaster Risk Reduction, an Institutional Debate
1Chancellor of Shakhes Pajouh Engineering and Research Institute of Natural Hazards, Isfahan, Iran; 2Vice Chancellor of Shakhes Pajouh Engineering and Research Institute of Natural Hazards, Isfahan, Iran; 3Researcher of Shakhes Pajouh Engineering and Research Institute of Natural Hazards, Isfahan, Iran
Iran is a Middle Eastern country located within the Caspian Sea and the Persian Gulf region. Disasters have affected the communities, economy and environment of Iran. The organization of crisis management established to reduce disaster risks in Iran and research institutions such as Shakhes Pajouh are building capacities and doing integrated research on disaster risk reduction.
People and the environment are increasingly suffering from the effects of natural disasters. Iran is a land of world's third largest natural disasters. 10 natural disasters in Iran for the period 1900 to 2013 are presented in this paper. The aims of this investigation are to characterize disasters and their effects on the Iranian communities as well as introducing relevant institutions for reducing risks and doing integrated research on disaster risk reduction.
Iran is exposed to many types of disasters. Drought, floods and earthquakes affected too many people and caused considerable economic damage costs. Geo-tectonic position, climate change, greenhouse gas emission and lack of stable buildings for earthquake resistance are the major reasons for increasing natural hazards in Iran.
The strategies adapted to organize the process of crisis and risk management in Iran are:
1) Establishment of 9 specialized committees for disaster risk reduction management in 1990 to 2000
2) Establishment of aids and life-saving project in 2003
3) Establishment of the supreme council of crisis and risk management with the leadership of the president of Iran in 2007
4) Establishment of the organization of crisis and risk management in 2007
Shakhes Pajouh as the first private research institute of natural disaster reduction engineering in Iran was established in 2001 and has been progressing very fast. It offers Ph. D. and MSc. courses by research and is actively involved with integrated study and research on disaster risk reduction.
Disaster Risk Reduction of Environmental Impacts from Mining (Case Study: The Laashotor Mines of Isfahan, Iran)
1Shakhes Pajouh Engineering and Research Institute of Natural Hazards, Iran, Islamic Republic of; 2Shakhes Pajouh Engineering and Research Institute of Natural Hazards, Iran, Islamic Republic of
Mining refers to all the methods that used for accessing to mineral materials. Destruction and changing natural landscape, waste piles, making holes and extreme changes in the primitive form of nature, the subsiding of the earth, acceleration in evasion process, road construction and change in natural land forms, destruction and annihilated of underground water aquifer result of destruction of ground's layers and state, demolition of earth and vegetation, released of poisonous substances, drainage acid mines, melting factories, noise, dust, industrial minerals and environmental effects are geomorphological and environmental consequences of mining. The purpose of this study is to examine environmental effects of mining on the landscape and residences, risk reduction of environmental impacts from mining and estimating the amount of destruction and threat which are the results of exploiting of mines with effect of different factors in from work of three scenario maintenance and landscape management, maintenance and natural resources management, determining suitable location for mineral and also effects of these activities on Baharestan city that is located near the Lashootor mines. So, we consider two methods, first-hand data from questionnaires collected from residencies and analyzed with statistical methods and second-hand data which are collected from satellite and analyzed with several index making decision methods. This study is descriptive-analytical and is done in field. In this study AHP, TOPSIS and VIKOR is used to display a space model for destruction geomorphological landscape for area in which mines exploit. Eight norms for destruction landscape and six mineral location was identified in Lashootor mines. We weighted norms with the use of AHP in three scenario and ranked the areas with the use of TOPSIS and showed different priorities of mining location. Finally six areas were given priorities considering landscape destruction, natural source destruction and suitable location for mining.

It seems to me that our villain seems to have a lot more character- and even genius- to him now that Patchwork Champions is no longer a webcomic. Okay, so his plans against the antiheroes didn't exactly pan out, and his fourth and fifth phases involved running and dying…
But on the other hand, He made a giant maze out of time and space warping materials, and apparently put a massive death fortress in the air to nuke anyone it felt like. He may still be quirky and somewhat hopeless, but his actual capabilities are showing up too, highlighted in a way that they certainly weren't before.
However, I can't decide whether this is because he and his craziness get to be described in more detail now, or because he (as he said) doesn't have to pull punches against the antiheroes.
Anyone else notice this or have comments to make on it?

Simple mouth care can prevent infections. This quick video shows how to care for someone by giving them simple mouth care.
An early indication of bacteria in the mouth is bad breath. Saliva helps kill the bacteria that normally live in our mouths and prevents them from spreading.
If your immunity is low or your mouth is dry (for example when using oxygen or not drinking enough water) it is harder to kill those bacteria. So keeping the mouth moist is important.
Anyone can help- neighbours, friends, spouses, or children. But remember- you need to look after yourself and your own back. If a bed is low, kneel with one leg on the bed when you bed over the person so you protect yourself.
- Buy mouth swaps from the chemist.
- Open the packet and remove mouth swab
- Dip in a glass of water until it is moist
- Rub the swab around the mouth, teeth, gums, and tongue
- Swab the mouth 3 times a day
- Use lip balm three times a day for dry lips.
- Encourage drinking water to help with dry mouth.
Anyone can do it! Here are some more videos for you to watch with practical tips about how to care at home.

It will cause many health problems to you. When you work for long time follow these healthy ways to avoid sleep.

Caffeine makes your mind active and avoids the sleep.

4. Stay in Brightness
People tend to fall asleep more when they stay in low light. So it is required for you to work in proper light. Few people like to work in low light and after working some time they feel sleepiness. When working in day time ensure that proper natural light is available. If there is not proper natural light then turn on extra light bulbs.
5. Switch between Multiple Tasks
In 7 healthy ways to avoid sleep the next way is to switch between multiple tasks. If you work consistently on one task your mind becomes slow after some time. When you change your task mind becomes fully active to set and accept the new task. So, if you have to avoid sleep and work for long time then you should keep switching between multiple tasks.
6. Talk with other Person
Starting a conversation with other person is good way to stay awake. When you feel sleepiness talk with your co-worker, you can also chat with someone if you are working alone. When you start talking in the middle of your work, you mind becomes active. It is a good way to avoid sleep and feel fresh.
7. Walk in Middle
Walking is good way to diverse your mind and stay awake for long time. It is also good for your health. Sitting and working for long time encourages fat gaining and related diseases.

Kindergarten Teachers
So I read online a mum is traumatised because her baby is refusing to go to school, reason is not the usual, has not adjusted to school but it's because the teacher beat up the child why? She refused to sleep during nap time. After being extremely exasperated by a teacher I don't know, I went on to read the comments and it seems like a trend in lots of kindergartens. So day 1 of school the teacher gives instructions after lunch that all the kids should sleep, your child doesn't sleep and so teacher gives a chapa so she can sleep!
Now dear Kindergarten teachers, I am not sure I should address teacher or owners of the school, well all you who work at a kindergarten, it is pure wrong to beat a child because they did not sleep, and especially on the first day of school. Some of these children, a) Do not sleep during the day and so this whole day sleeping is a new concept for them. b) Do not know how to sleep in a lit room so you damp them in a room with windows wide open, they will most probably gaze. c) Sleep in their own room, on their own bed by themselves, now all over a sudden they have to sleep with 20 other babies. d) Only know how to sleep with their dolls at hand and guess what?mum did not pack the doll to school.
The reasons could be endless.
Please give them a break.
I remember Mugi's first day of school, sleeping with all the light in the room was such a new concept for him, by day 3 he was happy to sleep because all his friends were sleeping. I remember being shocked when the teacher said that he sleeps during the day, and it's because he had learned that after lunch everyone sleeps.
I have listened to Caroline Mutoko talk about our education system and sad that even at kindergarten level in 2017, a teacher doesn't know that they should learn a child first, that all the children are not the same. That you can't declare toilet time for all your 20+ children and beat the one who says she doesn't need to go to the toilet. That you still don't know that they can be choosy with their foods but with a little talk they will get to eat what you serve them.
It is already a new concept for them, to leave their parents at home and be in this strange place the whole day for the first time and you welcome them with a chapa, of course they will hate school, parents will transfer their children you will lose business. The problem with most kindergartens is we think just because someone has children can mind and teach, teaching is a passion, a love that is brewed from deep within and expressed through the tender hands and words of the teacher.
You are setting the baseline for these children, do it right!
I am not saying do not discipline, but guess what, not sleeping during the day has never killed anybody, they will eventually copy their friends and sleep, just don't expect that to be day one or even week one. They can actually just lay on the flimsy mattress you placed on the floor and wait for the 1 hour to be over. Don't get hang up on they have to do what everyone else is doing. If you don't know by now that you are working with individuals and not a group of sheep then you really have no business being in that class in the first place.
Parents, if your baby is being beaten for not sleeping, please 'raise hell' with the admin. Really, teachers need to be kept accountable if the education system in this country is going to change and guess what, it starts right from kindergarten level. Children at this age hardly forget and that teacher who beat your child, will be forever the 'bad teacher' who beat me because I was not sleepy.
If we are going to raise confident children who question the status quo and do not settle for flimsy reason to corruption and injustice, then we need to empower them from an ealry age. If your teachers only allow the children to regugitate what they teach then dear kindergarten owner, it's time to change those teachers.
If you want an exact replica of what you plant, please go do farming, a maize seed will alway produce maize.
Happy Parenting

Victoria Park Station is a rapid transit station and bus terminal operated by the Toronto Transit Commission in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Located at 777 Victoria Park Avenue, the station is situated one block north of Danforth Avenue on the east side of Victoria Park Avenue.
Station description
The main entrance is on the east side of Victoria Park Avenue just north of the signalized intersection of the bus terminal roadway. Northwest, through the concourse, is the main fare line and collector's booth. North of the booth, there is a walkway connecting to the Crescent Town pedestrian bridge. Passengers may use stairs, escalators, and elevators to access the subway platforms in the paid area of the concourse. An automated entrance to the paid concourse is located at the southeast area of the station. The original white ceramic tiles on the walls have largely been replaced by dark grey porcelain tiles and light grey glass mosaic tiles on the pillars. Red accents are added with glazing and mosaic tiling in specific areas. The bus terminal is located on the south side of the paid area concourse. The outdoor "L" shaped terminal wraps around a parking lot and passenger pick-up and drop-off. Buses enter at Denton Avenue and exit onto Victoria Park Avenue. There are six bus bays that are lined by a canopy and have glass shelters placed at regular intervals.
The subway platforms are of the typical Bloor-Danforth style, and retains the original white ceramic tiled walls with black trim and lettering. Windows have been added at certain points as part of the station's modernization. Some of the engraved station names on the walls have been cut off by these windows. This will be rectified once the appropriate tiles are sourced. The final design will have the station name printed in white on black panels as has been used in some locations along the walls.
Victoria Park's original bus terminal shared its design with Islington's bus terminal. It was elevated on a rectangular concrete podium and had six bays each separated by a wall and covered by a curved roof. In December 2006, the Commission approved the conceptual design for the Victoria Park Bus Terminal Replacement Project.[1] The original bus terminal and the bus roadway ramp was demolished in 2009 to make way for the current street level terminal. It was open to the public in May 2010, though initially planned for late 2009.
At its June 13, 2007 meeting, the Commission approved the implementation of the green roof elements on a pilot project basis.[2] It has been installed over the station building and the bus terminal canopy. From 2007 through to 2008, the station design, finishes, and art was presented to the public for review. Other new features include a new northern pedestrian walkway, windows on the north wall of the subway platform, full access for wheelchairs, and an east automatic entrance.
Public art
Part of the station modernization is the art installation by Aniko Meszaros titled "Roots". The skylights within the canopy of the bus terminal have stainless steel, filigree panels with root patterns traced around images of the globe. Sunlight casts their shadows on the platform below. At the subway platforms, the word "community" is engraved into the wall at regular intervals in different languages layered on top of a root pattern. The walls adjacent to the stairways have a tree theme which extends from the concourse level to platform level.

New research digs into the behaviors — both obvious and subtle — that may put you at risk of falling victim to cybercrime involving Trojans, viruses, and malware.
"People who show signs of low self-control are the ones we found more susceptible to malware attacks," says Tomas Holt, professor of criminal justice at Michigan State University and lead author of the research. "An individual's characteristics are critical in studying how cybercrime perseveres, particularly the person's impulsiveness and the activities that they engage in while online that have the greatest impact on their risk."

Basmati price free fall has farmers counting losses
With the state and the Central governments failing to check the fall in basmati prices — rates have dipped over 50% from Rs 4,000 a quintal in 2013 to Rs 2,000 this season — the crop, once touted as a route to breaking the water-guzzling cycle of wheat and paddy, has left the producers knee-deep in losses that mount up to Rs 7,000 an acre.punjab Updated: Jan 05, 2016 23:06 IST
With the state and the Central governments failing to check the fall in basmati prices — rates have dipped over 50% from Rs 4,000 a quintal in 2013 to Rs 2,000 this season — the crop, once touted as a route to breaking the water-guzzling cycle of wheat and paddy, has left the producers knee-deep in losses that mount up to Rs 7,000 an acre.
Consider the case of Roop Singh, a farmer from Deon village, Bathinda.
"I hired 35 acres at between Rs 40,000 and Rs 47,000 per acre. On 18 acres, I sowed basmati. The average yield was 16 quintal per acre. I have sold the produce at rates ranging between Rs 2,100 and Rs 2,240 per quintal, meaning earnings of just around Rs 33,000 an acre against the rent of Rs 40,000 — a loss of Rs 7,000 an acre. This is without the cost of my labour and other inputs like electricity, water etc," he says, adding that he had transported his produce from Bathinda to Kotkapura, 55-km away, expecting better rates. This is not an isolated case.
The same story of unsustainable losses, especially in basmati, is repeated by farmers across the region.
"I sowed basmati on 10 acres and stored it for over two months, expecting a better price. Finally, I sold it for Rs 2,230 a quintal on Tuesday and earned Rs 35,000 per acre. This does not even cover the land rent. Paddy, on the other hand, fetched Rs 40,000 per acre," says Naib Singh, a farmer from Lande village, Moga, who also transported his produce to the Kotkapura grain market.
Trade speaks it mind
"Neither the state, nor the Centre has intervened to stop the free fall in basmati prices even as the production has fallen by more than 38%. This season, only 24 lakh tonne has arrived in grain markets against 32 lakh tonne last season. The governments have left both farmers as well as basmati millers to fend for themselves," claimed Ashish Kathuria, general secretary, Punjab Basmati Manufactures Association.
"The government wants diversification, but has failed to support basmati, the only hope for this to happen," he claimed.
'Basmati or fine paddy variety'
Bhartiya Kisan Union, (Sidhupore-Ekta) president Jagjeet Singh Dallewal, said, "Basmati growers have been cheated. The Centre has a pro-trader approach and is allowing exploitation of farmers. For a short while, basmati prices were allowed to increase to Rs 3,000 per quintal. When farmers brought the produce to market, prices dipped. The government is also exploiting farmers. For instance, Basmati 1509 is being bought by it at just Rs 1,450 per quintal on the pretext that it is a superfine variety of paddy. If it is a paddy variety, why were the farmers allowed to sow it as basmati?"
Official version
"Private millers are procuring basmati. The prices have increased from around Rs 1,500 a quintal to around Rs 2,500 a quintal now. The fluctuation is because of many reasons — including international market, demand and supply and area under the crop," said Faridkot mandi officer Kulbir Singh Matta.

Implementing the CWP
The CWP is an area-based programme that is established in a defined local area, called a site. Sites are usually wards or municipal area and need formal support from relevant local government structures.
The programme is managed at national level with support from provinces, and implementation is done at local level. The Department of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs (COGTA) handles overall management and contracting.
Implementing Agents (IAs) contracted by CoGTA roll out the programme at a local level in partnership with local municipalities. The IA is appointed to develop the site, provide financial, logistics and project management, while building local capacity through partnerships with local non-governmental organisations (NGO) and community-based organisations (CBOs).
These Implementing Agents also work with the community and other stakeholders to identify 'useful work' that will benefit the community as a whole. Useful work can be described as the nature of work that contributes to a public good, that is, the improvement of living conditions and the quality of life of the residents of these communities.
Community involvement
The CWP uses community participation to identify 'useful work' and priorities. This is usually done through ward committees or local development forums. By adopting a community development approach, the CWP has demonstrated that it is possible to:
- Significantly expand service delivery in poor communities through the use of appropriate and effective community development and community participation strategies.
- Improve the day-to-day lives of vulnerable, poor and marginalised communities by helping to organise activities that communities feel are meaningful for them.
- Empower communities to address their core problems and meet basic needs while restoring the pride of communities in their environment.
Useful work
The work performed in the CWP must be 'useful work'. It must improve the quality of life in poor communities by helping to create and maintain community assets and develop services. This work is identified and prioritised through participatory processes, in ward committees or other agreed upon local development forums. CWP specific Local Reference Committees (LRCs) who are representative of community formations have been established to provide advice and ensure that key stakeholders within the municipality and sector departments are working with the Implementing Agents in supporting programme implementation.
This has required innovative community development approaches, which the CWP has enabled. In practice, the work performed is multi-sectoral, and typically includes a mix of activities such as home-based care, mapping orphans and vulnerable children, food gardens, environmental services, and the creation and maintenance of community assets such as parks, ECD Centres, water tanks and roads. Community participation and support has transformed feelings of despair into those of hope. There are indications that the programme is improving peoples' lives.
Funding the CWP
The CWP is funded from the national budget. Wages have been set at R86 a day for ordinary participants and R113 a day for supervisors, based on the wage-contribution approved in the national budget for the non-state sector of EPWP. Wages are paid directly into workers' bank accounts.
The CWP prioritises labour-intensive activities and 70% of the money at site level goes to the workers in the form of wages. This ratio requires partnerships with other players to co-resource or co-fund activities with high material inputs or introduces innovative nature of work activities.
Non-wage budget covers, Tools and Materials, Protective clothing, Training & Technical Support, and Project Management.

A Victorian teenager who sliced her neck open after falling onto a VB stubby has told of the terrifying moment she thought she was going to die.
Kaitlyn was dancing on the kitchen table at her home in Central Victoria during an Australia Day party on Friday.
Attempting to jump onto a mate's back, she fell and landed on the beer bottle which then pierced her neck.
Fighting back tears, the teen told 9NEWS she "thought she was going die, (it was) pretty scary".
"The hole in my neck was like a big hole… I just remember my throat opening up," she recalled.
Bleeding heavily, the 19-year-old's friends attempted first aid, before she was rushed to Maryborough Hospital and given urgent treatment.
She was eventually taken to the Royal Melbourne Hospital where she underwent surgery.
Doctors removed glass from her throat, and she was given 12 stitches.
"Everyone kept telling me how lucky I was because it was just a few millimetres away from getting the main artery, and me just dying on the spot," she said.
Kaitlyn's mother said, "alcohol is dangerous...she's gotta live with this now. But it could have been somebody else she could have hurt."
Kaitlyn said she'll be laying off the booze for a while as she recovers from her ordeal.

REITs have ascended too far from their fundamentals -DJ US Real Estate Index has outpaced S&P 500 index by more than 50% during a time when their macro and fundamental outlook pale compared to that of the broad market. There is no "deal" to be had here! What you are witnessing is momentum trading, not fundamental value.
S&P 500 increased 62.0% between March 9, 2009 and December 9, 2009, while the DJ US Real estate index increased by 96.2% over the same period. With many tribulations still plaguing the US REIT sector, the valuations appear quite stretched.
The ascending REIT index is again creating the potential for another upheaval similar to that witnessed after the Lehman debacle. The DJ US Real estate index which was at 228.91 on September 15, 2008 has reached at 171.6 as of December 9, 2009.

I have a computer (WinXP SP3 installed) that works also as a small server for two games, www server and I am using BitComet as well. Since I want to play on it as well while downloading from BitComet and running two servers - I plan to get second internet connection - one for P2P application and another for playing/hosting.
Is it possible to setup Windows to run applications of one user using one connection and second user on another connection? So, for instance, when I run game server as user "gserv" it will use first NIC (and gateway) , and user "BitCom" will use second NIC (and second gateway)?...
You can set the computer up with two connections and manually switch over from one to the other. One you cannot do is use both connections simultaneously. Windows will always use the first gateway it finds and ignore any others.
I know that if I , for instance, start downloading a file with my browser/ftp client, then switch default gateway, download will still go through first connection (any new browser window, though, will use second).
So, technically it is possible to use both at once, though Windows cant assign it automatically.
Maybe external application can do it?... I am trying to block one network on personal firewall for some applications and see how is it working...
You need a router that has two WAN connections and supports Load Balancing. I think only high end Cisco routers are capable of this. Might want to google for routers that support load balancing.
As for this....
"Is it possible to setup Windows to run applications of one user using one connection and second user on another connection?"
You can setup Virtual Machines and two NICs which you can bind them to two different Gateways. This would be the cheapest route. Just run one server on your main computer and the other on the Virtual Machine...

Death's Door by James Benn (Soho Crime, 2012) is the seventh title in a compulsively readable historical series set during World War II. Billy Boyle is a member of a tight-knit Boston Irish family who, having lost a brother during World War I, decided to pull some strings when Billy's draft number comes up for the next war. One of his mother's cousins is married to an Army general and the family finagles an appointment for Billy to his staff, congratulating themselves that he will sit the war out in safety in Washington, DC. When the cousin, General Dwight Eisenhower, is appointed Commander of the European Forces and moves to London, Billy finds himself on the front lines of the war in the kind of danger his family hoped to avoid.
His previous experience as a detective on the Boston Police Force stands him in good stead in the military and he becomes General Eisenhower's unofficial investigator and troubleshooter, traveling all over Europe. In this story an American monsignor serving the Vatican has been stabbed and Billy is assigned the task of finding out why and by whom. The local police found a Jewish refugee near the body and turned him over to the Nazis, closing the case. The monsignor had influential friends in the United States who are not convinced the answer was that simple.
First Billy and his sidekick Lieutenant Piotr "Kaz" Kazimierz have to be smuggled into the Holy City, crossing German-held territory, and then they have to negotiate their way among the dizzying number of political and national factions within the Vatican to identify the killer, then they have to find their way back out. Complicating the task is the knowledge that Billy's war-time girlfriend has been captured by the Germans and he's been ordered not to try to find her for fear of disrupting undercover operations.
This book is as much of a historical snapshot of the last months of the war before the Vatican was liberated by the Allies as it is a mystery. It describes the complex and tenuous status of the Pope and everyone in the Vatican in authoritative detail. While in theory the Vatican City was neutral, it was also completely surrounded by the German army who could easily overrun the Papal State, so it was essential for the continuation of the Vatican for them to placate the Nazis. In the meantime many members of the Catholic Church hid Jews and refugees at great personal risk to themselves and to the Church. The Pope and his most senior officials walked a dangerous tightrope every day, appearing to follow the rules set down by the Germans while helping the thousands of refugees who made their way into the Holy City. The book also highlights clearly the lack of solidarity among the German allies, who joined Hitler for many reasons, not necessarily because they admired him.
This is a fine historical series, easily balancing academic detail and mystery plot without sacrificing sound characterization and engaging writing.

As NY Brings Credit Bureaus To Heel, CFPB Arbitration Study Paves Way Toward New Protections
Two big consumer stories so far this week offer hope to consumers victimized by credit bureau errors and, more generally, by an inability to take credit bureaus, credit card companies, banks or payday lenders to court when harmed. On Monday, New York's Attorney General Eric Schneiderman signed a groundbreaking agreement with the Big Three credit bureaus, Equifax, Trans Union and Experian. Then today, the CFPB released a report finding that consumers are harmed by small-print forced arbitration clauses in credit card and other contracts that allow firms to break the law with impunity, as the clauses immunize them from legal action by harmed consumers. The CFPB will hold a webcast public hearing at 11am Eastern time today Tuesday to discuss the report's findings. The findings of the report allow the bureau, by law, to pursue new rules to protect consumers.
Big Story #1: More On The Importance of the Settlement With the Credit Bureaus:
The settlement is important because the firms, as I told Bloomberg: "have become gatekeepers to economic and employment success in the U.S." The action is expected to greatly improve the accuracy of mistaken-ridden credit reports that harm consumers seeking credit or jobs. Forcing credit bureaus to do a better job is also important because, as CFPB director Rich Corday has pointed out on a number of occasions, credit reporting is a dead-end market where consumers have no choices. You can pick your friends and you can pick your bank, but you cannot pick your credit bureau. You cannot vote with your feet when a credit bureau makes a mistake and ignores your efforts to fix it.
The settlement requires the bureaus to have humans verify the results of reinvestigations of certain disputes; the normal practice has been that computers at a furnisher (creditor or debt collector) share summarized codes with the bureau's computers. But as I pointed out to CNBC: "They're just verifying sameness, not correctness," —which is what can keep wrong information on the report."
The settlement also delays reporting of alleged unpaid medical debt by 180 days, since so much medical debt, often for small amounts, is merely the result of impatient, fast-on-the-trigger hospitals and doctors selling unpaid consumer bills to sloppy and often unscrupulous debt buyer firms before slow-on-the-draw insurance companies have sorted out and paid claims. The CFPB has found that false medical debt claims litter credit reports; further, leading credit score firm FICO, among others, has determined that medical debt is not a legitimate indicator of creditworthiness. A recent CFPB study points out problems with medical debt reporting in detail.
We've been fighting the credit bureau wars for 25 years. One of our early 1990s reports, part of our "Nightmare On Credit Street" series that helped lead to hard-fought 1996 reforms, was based on consumer complaints to the FTC. It focused on the very issue that may finally be solved by this enforcement action: the credit bureaus routinely take the word of creditors in disputes but ignore consumers. As we noted in that report, "Consumers are outraged that the credit bureau says: "Item remains, confirmed by source." They want to to know: "Who is this source?" Our latest 2013 report, "Big Credit Bureaus, Big Mistakes," based on complaints to the CFPB, confirmed that serious problems still exist.
We urged Congress to pass upgrades to credit reporting law in 1996 to require the credit bureaus and those "sources" (generally creditors or debt collectors) to improve accuracy but the credit bureaus ignored it, so we helped pass another law in 2003, and they ignored that one, too, so in 2010, we fought to give the new CFPB broad authority over credit bureaus, including the ability to "examine" them-- essentially to look inside their previously black-box operations. A 2012 CFPB study detailed endemic problems at the credit bureaus and led to a key concession: the bureaus agreed to send furnishers all supporting documentation for a consumer's dispute. Previously, they had only sent the codes. (Apparently, the bureaus have only just now learned that email allows file attachments.) CFPB bulletin explains. (pdf) The CFPB's work has formed the foundation for this important New York enforcement action.
General Schneiderman's action is a big victory in the credit bureau wars, but we'll remain vigilant and we'll keep pushing. Expect further action by other leading state Attorneys General and both the CFPB and the FTC.
Big Story #2: Why the CFPB Arbitration Study Could Lead to A Fairer Marketplace:
Today, the CFPB released a report finding that consumers are harmed by small-print forced arbitration clauses in credit card and other contracts that allow firms to break the law with impunity, as the clauses immunize them from legal action by harmed consumers. The CFPB will hold a webcast public hearing at 11am Eastern time today Tuesday to discuss the report's findings. The findings of the report allow the bureau, by law, to pursue new rules to protect consumers. Highlights from the CFPB release accompanying the comprehensive 728-page pdf report available here (html):
"[A]rbitration agreements restrict consumers' relief for disputes with financial service providers by limiting class actions. The report found that, in the consumer finance markets studied, very few consumers individually seek relief through arbitration or the federal courts, while millions of consumers are eligible for relief each year through class action settlements. The Bureau's report also found that more than 75 percent of consumers surveyed did not know whether they were subject to an arbitration clause in their agreements with their financial service providers, and fewer than 7 percent of those covered by arbitration clauses realized that the clauses restricted their ability to sue in court."
Here is a shorter 4-page pdf CFPB fact sheet on the report. Excerpt from the prepared remarks of CFPB director Rich Cordray at the hearing today:
"In discussing these findings, it is important to bear in mind that when it comes to consumer finance, arbitration clauses are contained in standard-form contracts, where the terms are not subject to negotiation. Like the other terms of most contracts for consumer financial products or services, they are essentially "take-it-or-leave-it" propositions. Consumers may open a new account or procure a new product without being aware of what the contract says or without fully understanding its implications. As part of the study we are releasing today, we looked at arbitration clauses in at least six different consumer finance markets."
As the director's remarks point out, the problem is with pre-dispute arbitration, forced onto consumers. No one opposes arbitration agreements entered into after a dispute is arisen. But boilerplate arbitration clauses in take-it-or-leave-it contracts affect financial contracts, cell phone and health insurance contracts and even nursing home contracts. Anticipated CFPB action will be a huge step toward reform that will make markets work better.
The idea of the CFPB needs no defense, only more defenders.

With the amount of online shopping orders skyrocketing over the past few years, it's being reported that many eCommerce warehouses are having a tough time with hiring enough employees. The rate of labor costs rising up to $12.15 per worker per hour in conjuncture with the uptick in online shopping is impacting warehouse operations.
According to Warehouse Mobile Solutions' CEO Tim Hoj, retailers and logistics companies everywhere are rapidly opening up new locations which is also causing a struggle in finding enough new employees to fulfill consumer demand. Currently, the Bureau of Labor Statistics' data is showing that the one million warehouse workers will double by the year 2020.
To help fill these spots, there's the possibility that warehouse automation efforts will also see an increase over the next few years.
