Learn How To Tackle With Symptoms Of Athlete's Foot While You Take The Necessary Precautions
Athlete's foot is a situation that manifests itself because of an infection by a fungus. The infection may be a part of you if you keep your feet soaked in water for a long time or it might become a part of you if you wear a pair of shoes that are not very comfortable.
As a consequence of the infection, you are sure to discover some sensations of itching and burning in the feet, particularly in the spaces between the toes. The soles of the feet are also likely to get these sensations. There are bound to be some blisters on the feet, and these blisters are bound to itch.
There are different parts of the feet that can be affected by this condition. There are several different ways in which athlete's feet can be treated using natural products. They are going to deliver a permanent relief from all the symptoms, you can be sure.
To begin with, prepare a solution of water and Epsom salt. Add some vinegar to this. The solution thus prepared is aimed at giving relief from all the symptoms of athlete' feet. The solution does soothe the skin as it lowers the intensity of the symptoms.
Simply rub the affected foot with a cotton-wool dabbed in the solution prepared above and apply it to the affected area. Repeat the process every time before you go to bed, and when you arise in the morning. Continue doing so for about a fortnight.
Anyone afflicted with athlete's feet is not supposed to share his or her shoes with anyone else or the infection can spread to others. There may be a sensation of burning, while it may be accompanied by itching and even some pain.

Kansas City...a winter wonderland
Big storm today in Kansas City. So big that they had to shut down schools, business... you name it. After a cozy day inside I took my toy point and shoot plus a crappy tripod and off to the snowy streets. It was really cold outside, so cold that I had to change the batteries twice in my little toy camera. I am amazed of what I've got with such a small one.
Anyway, I toned the images to the way I felt out there. Cold, cold, cold! It was pitch dark so each exposure ranged from 1 to several seconds, and that's where the tripod helped. Would have liked to have some more live subjects but I guess everybody and everything was under a thick layer of snow or behind a nice warmed electrical blanket. Really, no cats, squirrels or even bunnies were to be found. If this would have been in Bucharest I'm pretty sure you'd see at least one shot with a hoard of stray dogs chasing me :)
Some really fun shots with Vivienne on a white seamless coming up. Toy, toy and stay warm

Obama: DREAMers are 'Americans, just like us'
One day after a Republican-led change to dismantle President Obama's executive actions on immigration failed in Congress, a group of young undocumented immigrants gathered in the Oval Office to deliver a message: The fight is not over.President Obama on Wednesday met with six DREAMers – undocumented immigrants brought to the U.S. as children – to hear their stories and put a human face to a set of unilateral actions that together, are set to benefit as many as 5 million people currently living in the U.S.
"I don't think there is anybody in America who had a chance to talk to these six young people – or the DREAMers all across the country – who wouldn't find it in their heart to say these kids are Americans just like us and they belong here," Obama said.
The gathering at the White House comes just one day after the GOP failed to curtail the president's executive actions. House Republicans targeted the measures by tacking on toxic amendments to legislation for crucial funding to the Department of Homeland Security. As expected, the strategy failed to out-match a Democratic filibuster in the Senate, teeing up a battle over funding for homeland security operations before resources run out on Feb. 27.
RELATED: Democrats block GOP bill that would gut executive actions on immigration
The president strongly reiterated that he would not sign any legislation designed to rollback his own executive actions and chided Republicans for putting national security funding in jeopardy.
"There's no logic to that position – particularly for Republicans who claim they are interested in strong border security – why would you cut off your nose despite your face by defunding the very operations that are involved in making sure we've got strong border security," Obama said.
The DREAMers in attendance represented an array of young people who have already benefited from the president Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program. Some were unaware of their undocumented status until they attempted to apply for college; others were brought into the U.S. before they could even walk.
Maria Praeli, born in Peru and brought to the U.S. at the age of five, said after the meeting that advocates were undeterred by GOP-led efforts to gut the DACA program that has helped nearly 600,000 young DREAMers like herself.
RELATED: GOPer: Got measles? Blame 'aliens'
"This is our victory and we're going to defend this victory no matter who threatens it," she said outside of the White House Wednesday. "We are here, the DREAMers are not going away and we are going to continue to fight for our community as we have done in the past and as we will do in the future."
Blanca Gamez said she told President Obama about how DACA changed her life. As a young undocumented college graduate at the University of Nevada Las Vegas in 2012, she had a degree yet no real job prospects.
"I was graduating with a political science degree, I wanted to be in politics," she recalled to reporters Wednesday. "Unfortunately nine silly little numbers pushed that away from me, pushed away my dreams."
Now years later and with the DACA program in place, Gamez has two-bachelors degrees and is starting law school in the fall.

Under the latest Five-Year Plan, China should have some 58 GWe of nuclear generating capacity in operation by 2020, up from the current capacity of almost 27 GWe. In addition, a further 30 GWe of nuclear capacity will be under construction by 2020.
The 13th Five Year Plan also calls for the construction of a demonstration as well as a large commercial scale reprocessing plant to be accelerated. China National Nuclear Corporation (CNNC) and France's Areva signed an agreement in November 2007 to assess the feasibility of setting up an 800 tonne per year reprocessing plant for used fuel in China.
The latest Five-Year Plan also calls for construction of Phase III of the Tianwan plant in Jiangsu province to be accelerated. The State Council gave its approval for Tianwan units 5 and 6 – featuring 1080 MWe ACPR1000 reactors – in December. Tianwan units 1 to 4 are Russian-supplied VVER reactors.
The plan also calls for the preparation for construction of inland nuclear power plant

Saddam Hussein used similar phraseology the day the 1991 Gulf War began, he said the 'mother of all battles' had begun. We all know what happened to him right after. This is a lot of bluster from leaders of Iran
July 22 (UPI) -- Iran president on Sunday warned President Donald Trump that threatening to block oil exports will lead to the "mother of all wars."
"Mr Trump! We are the honest men who have throughout history guaranteed the safety of this region's waterways," Hassan Rouhani told Trump in a televised speech. "Do not play with the lion's tail, it will bring regret."
Trump is reimposing sanctions on Iran after deciding to pull out of the 2015 international deal to prevent Tehran from developing nuclear weapons. With the sanctions, Iran's oil exports could fall by as much as two-thirds by the end of the year, Sky News reported.
Originally Trump demanded all other countries to stop buying its crude by November but now he says the United States may grant waivers to some allies heavily particularly reliant on Iranian supplies.

How do we explain the growth in oil and natural gas supply in the US from tight formations and shale. What we see happening today in the natural gas is not a bubble— it is the remnant of the bubble that burst in the Great Recession as record high prices for natural gas in the run-up to 2008 created the demand for more supply. The worry then was that there was not enough gas to meet demand without importing it as LNG from the same wacky countries that sold us oil. High priced LNG was expected to eat our lunch the same way high prices oil imports were doing. Remember all those LNG regas terminals that got built anticipating that LNG import wave that never materialized?
There is a different story in oil. Oil prices were always global while natural gas prices were regional since before LNG little of it was globally traded. LNG was just like air conditioning—it changed everything.
Oil is priced based upon the global market expectation of the marginal price of the swing productive capacity. Since OPEC was formed that meant that Saudi Arabia as the world's largest producer of oil and the only producer able to swing the level of production up or down effectively exercised market pricing power.
Cutting back swing oil production in the Arab oil boycott and related market crises in the 1970's gave us long gasoline lines, spiking prices, inflation and rising tempers. On the other hand, when Saudi Arabia sees its interests aligned with the US (such as times tensions with Iran heat up) it can dial up the swing production levels, ease the market perception of supply disruption and send prices down.
Our dynamic energy political economy from the 1970's till the Great Recession. What changed?
- The great recession reduced demand for energy and many other things.
- Lower demand meant lower prices for energy and many other things.
- Energy efficiency combined with the recession encouraged consumers to buy more efficient cars, appliances, etc to 'lock in savings', insure against inflation to come. Zero interest rates and cash rebates and driving in the HOV lane all helped car sales.
- The Prius Effect: We bought more efficient cars, etc but we 'pocketed the savings' and drove more, used more, etc.
- Producers see increased sales of cars, recovery of housing prices, etc and think–time to produce more oil & gas. Meanwhile technology from directional drilling and hydraulic fracturing means we can produce more gas & oil at home and need to import less. Supply increases
- Producers drill for oil and get gas so they market gas. Others drill for gas and get liquids so they market liquids. Congestion in the pipelines is caused by more production onshore in the shale at a faster rate than new infrastructure construction can catch up. Congestion in the US leads to the Brent-WTI price spread to reflect the market discount of US production holding back supply growth.
- Politics happen: Keystone XL pipeline becomes an anti-fossil fuels environmental rallying cry. Fracking is blasphemed in movies made by politically correct but clueless Hollywood stars. The House says drill baby drill while the Senate says no way.
- Supply keeps growing from the shale revolution. Barnett,Eagle Ford, Marcellus, Bakken are unqualified successes. By 2011 the US is the world's largest producer of natural gas; forget LNG imports we want to export LNG—first new export terminal goes on line in 2017. By 2016 the US will be the world's largest producer of oil. Oil imports are dropping likely to bottom out at 35-45% down from the 75% +/-. The US is the World's Energy Super Power. This reality really sucks for the environmentalists and anti-fossil fuel crowd. The rest of us are cheering.
- The Obama Administration starts piling on regulation after regulation to assuage the wrath of its environmental base. They never met a regulation they did not like. Meanwhile supply keeps booming. Regulatory challenges in court meet with partial success. Electoral results in 2010 and hoped for results in 2014 and 2016 could create a more energy friendly Wash DC.
- I saved the best for last in my top ten list—-GHG emissions in the US went down and continue to fall despite the shale boom. The climate science is not as settled as Al Gore told us since global temps refuse to rise as politicians had told us they would. The good news is NYC will not be under water from rising seas—the bad news is neither with Washington DC.
There ends my rant! Damn that felt good.

Digital CertificatesA Digital Certificate is normally used in tandem with SSL. A Digital Certificate is a document which gives your customers the assurance that your Web Site is legitimately yours and not an impostor's. A Digital Certificate will also provide you with a legal basis for transactions on the Internet.
The Secure Server (httpsd) you order from Blue Reef has a Digital Certificate embedded in the binary. This certificate contains information about who owns the certificate (company name, domain name, contact address, etc) as well as information about the issuing authority (Thawte, VeriSign, etc). Because the certificate is embedded in the web server binary, you can only support one Digital Certificate per Virtual Server.

Her tendencies to my hands touching her change me on enough to talk her over onto her back and consume her pussy throughout again. Diverted, I barely detect Brenda quietly falling down the bed.

Then, he wipes his mouth on his sleeve. Furrowing his brows, he kicks the clear package out the passenger window. A spectacular, contemptuous look extends across his experience, extreme it with disgust. Opening yet another beer, he chugs down nearly all of it. Learning the silhouettes while they move in front of the living room windows, he waits, his brain rolling and festering with intoxicated thoughts.

While marijuana has been legal for medical use since 1996, California has come into a new age of legal adult-use aka "recreational" use over the past two years. Retail stores and dispensaries have sprouted up all over the city with more than 1,700 to choose from. So whether you're into vaping after work, old-school blunts by the beach, or snacking on edibles while watching Jelle's Marble Runs videos on Youtube, there's at least one store for you.
Pro tip: Most shops do offer delivery, as well, but if you've never actually visited a dispensary, you owe it to yourself to get the in-person experience at least once.
Please Don't Hang Up: The Best Things to See, Eat, and Do in Seattle, WA
West Hollywood, Downtown, Beverly Hills
Unlike the head shops of the past, hidden behind records and incense, there's no missing MedMen's neon-lit storefront and sleek signature look. Yes, you're stepping into the self-proclaimed "Apple Store of cannabis" -- just know that with the fancy touch screens and weed Genius Bar, you'll likely see Apple Store prices. The cannabis chain specializes in diverse strains and high-end offerings, as well as edible and topical options -- bonus points for pet-friendly drops and gift-worthy items like kush bath bombs.
The Farmacy Westwood
The Farmacy is a recreational cannabis boutique that carries over 150 designer products, but it also offers medical patients a 10% discount off their first purchase. School stressing you out? UCLA staff and students (with valid UCLA ID and medical referral) receive a 10% discount as well. Even if you're just shopping for adult-use cannabis, don't worry: regular customers can join the dispensary's 420 rewards program to earn gifts and discounts.
Rose Buds
Have friends visiting from out of town? Rose Buds, located near Pasadena City College, is the place to bring them, since recreational customers 21+ with ID (out of state accepted!) can shop here without any medical recommendation. First-time patients receive five house joints and one top-shelf joint, and as an added bonus, you can actually get FTP deals for your first TWO visits. With over 100 extracts and almost 200 edibles on offer, this place has much more than buds.
Greenwolf LA
Los Feliz
Located right on Los Feliz Boulevard, Greenwolf LA is arguably one of the best shops on the east side; from vegan edibles to CBD-infused honey bear bottles, this place almost feels like the Whole Foods of dispensaries. This is also one of the only recreational shops in LA that carries actual seeds for home growth, which for $80-100 isn't too bad if you have a green thumb/the space to do your own growing.
The Pottery
An airy, minimalist decor gives The Pottery a modern day apothecary vibe, fitting for your purchase of an extremely helpful medicine -- and even "recreational" tokers benefit from the medical effects of marijuana from anti-inflammatory properties to anxiety reduction. In the interest of providing Earth-grown pharmaceuticals, you'll find display cases of premium flower such as Bloom Farms' Do Si Do, THC Design's Purple Punch, and Pearl Pharma's Kosher White Truffle. The Pottery also delivers to a considerable section of the city with no additional fees.
Silver Lake
California Caregivers Alliance has been around for over a decade, although it's now accepting recreational customers -- and first time visitors can enjoy 10% off after taxes! Tucked into the second floor of a strip mall, this little shop can get pretty packed at times, but if you're willing to wait a few minutes for your turn, a friendly staff is waiting to walk you through their reasonable selection of strains, edibles, vapes, and other products. There are daily specials, which is always a welcome treat, and on Sundays there's a prize wheel you can join in on with a donation -- who doesn't love a prize wheel?
OG Top Shop
South LA
If you have a major sweet tooth, get ready to load up on edibles from the OG Top Shop; the place is stocked with everything from candies like Gummies and Sour Belts to baked goods like cookies, brownies, and krispy treats. They also have great convenience items like a vast selection of pre-rolls; it's 2018, and you shouldn't have to roll your own joints if you don't want to. The place opens daily at 8am and regularly runs customer appreciation events -- just don't forget to hit the ATM, this shop is cash only.
Studio City
Open daily from 6am to 10pm (including holidays), WHTC just might be the most accessible dispensary yet. Winner of 2016 High Times Cannabis Cup, this is shop excels in both options and education; from the informative website to the informed staff, WHTC strives to help you buy what's best for you. The shop offers a 5% discount to veterans, seniors, and medical marijuana patients with disabilities, and daily deals for medical patients; while recreational customers are accepted, keep in mind that the daily deals are for medical patients only. Though there's a limited number of flower strains on offer, WHTC's fully stocked with extracts and concentrates, including the Dosist pens that are sold out at most shops.
City Compassionate Caregivers
You'd be hard-pressed to find a friendlier, more inviting atmosphere amongst budtenders than at City Compassionate Caregivers who've been cultivating some of LA's top greens for 20+ years. The operation has been known to collaborate with weed royalty like the Wu-Tang Clan, Cypress Hill, and Snoop Dogg. Speaking of the D-o-double-gizzle, Caregivers uses Snoop's Premium Nutrients on a number of plants in their on-site double-decker grow facility. Be sure to pick up some fire flower from The Cure Company, whose Glazed Apricot Gelato strain is sure to make for a relaxed stroll through Arts District afterward.
Arts District
Sometimes it's hard to get off your couch -- luckily, DTPG offers FREE delivery anywhere from Glendale to East LA. They also have daily deals, and are currently offering 25% off vapes and concentrates. DTPG carries one of the biggest selections of Hybrid strains, as well as a well-stocked edible selection that including a variety of candies, oils, and medicated pet treats.
Bonafide Collective
With top-shelf deals for first time buyers, Bonafide makes their customer value clear at the outset. The floor-to-ceiling product selection will have you wanting to try something new every time, and you definitely should; don't hesitate to ask for a recommendation, as the budtenders are helpful and friendly. Bonafide prides itself on a research-based menu, so you can expect a wide variety of lab-tested strains, extracts, and powerful edibles here.
Zen Noho
North Hollywood
Last year, Leafly rated Zen Noho the No. 2 best dispensary in LA, and the shop is still hitting just as hard these days. You'll find something for everyone, from CBD to edibles, but the shop is cash only -- however, there is an ATM on site. Zen Noho offers monthly specials on flower, concentrates, and pens; follow their Facebook to keep up with the sales.
Cornerstone Research Collective
Eagle Rock
Located across from the Eagle Rock Plaza, Cornerstone feels like a boutique retail experience that's fueled by medical education. The store is "research-based," and one of the best places to ask any question you might have; there's even a blog that focuses on cannabis benefits, with article topics that touch on everything from MS pain management to creativity to strain science. If you're in the dark about what you need or the best canna product to tackle your issue, this is a very informative place to shop.
Located on Cahuenga and Sunset, this shop is in squarely the heart of Hollywood, and while it's cash-only, there's a much-needed ATM on site. MMD is loaded with flower, concentrates, and a great selection of edibles and infused drinks, and also gives a 10% discount to people who live or work nearby! After your pickup, head across the way to Amoeba for some music and movies -- it's basically a 4/20 one-stop shopping trip.
Los Angeles Kush
East LA, Echo Park
Los Angeles Kush is a bargain hunter's green dream -- to wit, every Tuesday at their Echo Park location is both Terp Tuesday with 15% off all vape cartridges AND Taco Tuesday meaning two free tacos with any purchase. There aren't too many places that both give you the munchies and satisfy them within a 10-foot radius. Shop hours are ridiculously convenient, running from 7am to 10pm seven days a week, making it all that much easier to scratch an itch for San Fernando Valley OG or Cherry Zkittles.
Green Goddess Collective
Green Goddess is a boutique dispensary just a scooter ride's distance from the neighborhoods' iconic beachwalk and canals. Scootering along with a goodie bag of calming tinctures and bath bath bombs, without a care in the world, seems like a pretty ideal way to spend 4/20. The dispensary houses a wide variety of oil, kief, hash, vapes, wax, balms, and Buddha's Dream Cannabis Oil made using Canadian engineer Rick Simpson's method.
Buddha Company
With what might just be the best deal yet, Buddha Company is covering the new 2018 taxes for customers to help them acclimate to the new regulations. Yes, while many shops are passing these high taxes on to the customer, leaving some patients more sour than Diesel, Buddha is opting to front the costs. They also have first timer perks for both medical and recreational customers.
Maywood, Beverly Grove
While Cookies does sell more than just edibles -- namely a solidly curated lineup of clean, high-octane flower and wax -- let's take a second to appreciate the wonders on their dosed baked goods menu from Venice Cookie Company. The 100mg bags, with a trusty 10mg per cookie, come in varieties like The Hippie (vegan-friendly trail mix, granola, peanut butter, and dried cherries), The Chipster (chocolate chips, cranberries, and sea salt) and the incredibly well-balanced CBD Churros. This growing dispensary franchise is the brainchild of recording artist/marijuana mogul Berner, who has applied the same meticulous standards to cultivating herb as he has to his dank-as-hell street wear.
King Kush Collective
South LA
King Kush is known for its customer appreciation days, which can easily turn into huge parties. The shop offers multiple freebies for first-timers, including joints and gift bags with small donations, and you can join the VIP Text Message List by texting "KING ME" to 800-516-1357, and stay up to date with rotating deals and events.
East LA
Located on the fourth floor of the building (with stunning views of the city), TLC is a legit boutique, featuring a variety of cannabis products, as well as a Show Grow Room and a Jungle Boys Apparel section. Budtenders are on-hand to help you decide, but TLC also features an "Express Line" if you already know what you want -- this can be useful when you want to be in and out, but other customers have a ton of questions.
Hollywood High Grade
Hollywood High Grade on Santa Monica offers free gift bags to all new patients; the shop also has different deals every day of the week, and on Fridays you can choose from all of them! Like most dispensaries, HHG has a vast Indica selection, but there's a surprisingly healthy selection of Sativa and Hybrids, as well.
Zen Healing
West Hollywood
They've been around since 2003, and have plenty of loyal customers. It's a welcoming space with free parking, and they consider Sunday their patient appreciation days, on which they offer compassion to those who cannot afford their medication. They also offer a military discount. They carry a decent selection of flowers, plus edibles, vapes, topicals, drinks, and cooking aids -- like weed hot sauce and olive oil.

Practical Engine Airflow Performance Theory and Applications by John Boechtel (CarTech Books)
- Free Shipping
- Veteran Owned
- Secure Shopping
- Satisfaction Guaranteed
Practical Engine Airflow: Performance Theory and Applications is an important tome for understanding the principles of how air affects your engines.
Engine airflow performance impacts your intake, cylinders, heads and exhaust system. It is critical to your engine�s power and anyone that chooses to work on their engine needs to comprehend the dynamics and physics behind it.
Now, before you let words like �dynamics� and �physics� scare you off, this book tackles these processes in layman�s terms. Within these pages are the building blocks on specific procedures for applying practical and simplified principles to managing and unlocking your engine�s potential. The author covers V-8s, V-6s and imported 4-cylinder engines. You�ll learn about:
- Atmospheric pressure
- Air density
- Fuel consumption
- Air motion
- Boundary layers
- Intake flow port capacity
- Obstructions
- Air velocity
- Pressure changes
A level of skill isn�t really required. Whether you�re a seasoned engine builder or someone that tinkers in the driveway, understanding the fundamentals of engine airflow performance found in Practical Engine Airflow: Performance Theory and Applications will only make you a better craftsman.
While this is a book that�s best read cover to cover, the chapter breakdown lets you easily find what you need. You�ve got Airflow Basics, Combustion Chambers, Intake Manifold and more. Within each chapter, there�s a thorough study of airflow in relation to carburetors, throttle bodies, plenum characteristics, exhaust flow tuning and flow benching. You�ll get the basics for dealing with pressure changes, torque peak RPM, lift-to-diameter ratios, mixture conditioning and wave tuning. There are details about finding the software program to best suit your purposes.
If you don�t know why your valve size is critical to turning air through cylinders with the smoothest flow or how the throttling device regulates engine speed and power output that varies air delivery, it�s time to learn more about engine airflow performance. Author John Baechtel is a former editor at Hot Rod and Car Craft. He�s also a founder of the Westech Performance Group�s engine dyno-testing facility. He�s put over three decades of experience with high performance engines into Practical Engine Airflow: Performance Theory and Applications, as well as manuals like Performance Automotive Engine Math and Competition Engine Building.

Today I am writing about a very basic process in the Android Community, i.e. Decompiling & Recompiling Android apps using the infamous Apktool software. I will cover all the steps like downloadng,installation , usage & minor troubleshooting.
What the heck is this thing & Why should I do it?
Android apps as you get them are standard "apk" files like angry_birds.apk . Now if you have been playing around XDA website , you must have come across minor or major guides of modding your status bar/launcher/home page or even commonly available apps. Such modding/theming steps cannot be done on the apk file directly. You need to be able to play with the source code of an app in order to go around with much of the editing process.At this point, apktool comes into picture. It's a simple tool which takes up a apk file and decompiles (=converts apk back to its source code) the app. Later after required edits , it also has the capability to recompile(=builds apk file from source code) the apps.
Where to get this awesome tool ?
This tool is currently maintained by xda member ibotpeaches who constantly updates it and provides new versions with required patches(bug-fixes).
Head over to here ,Scroll down to below and download the latest apktool version from there.It would look something like the picture below.
Now all you need is a computer running windows and a usable mind !!!
- Download the latest apktool version from above given link and rename it to apktool.jar
- Now download this zip file from here.It contains the other resources for apktool installation.
- Create a new folder and give it any name like " Apktool ". Put the apktool.jar file here.
- Extract the files from downloaded zip and move them along with the apktool.jar in the new folder so that it looks like the image below.
Installation Complete !
Usage :
Part – 1 Installing Framework (Needs to be done once . To be redone only if you are working with files from other device)
Before you can start with decompiling apk files , you need some files from your phone so that apktool can function properly.
The following files are needed
|SystemUI.apk (optional)
|/system/app or /system/priv-app
Now for some manufacturers (Sony, Samsung , HTC etc) you need their specific files . For eg. for Samsung you need the twframework-res.apk file too. The best way of doing this is to copy any other apk files in the /system/framework folder and keep them along with the above files.
In order to get these files from the phone , you can either use a file manager like ES File Explorer or you can use ADB.If you don't know what ADB is, I will cover it in one of my tutorials.
Let's begin
- After you get these files keep them in the folder you made .
- Now in that folder, hold down shift key and click Right-Mouse button.You will get a menu like the picture below.
- Click on "Open command window here" and you will get a command prompt screen.
- Now type the following :
apktool if framework-res.apk
and press enter.(if= install framework)
- Similarly keep typing this for each file you copied from your phone (framework.jar etc) and each time keep replacing framework-res.apk with the name of the file.
- After this you are done with part-1 and you can delete the files you copied from device from the apktool folder.
Part – 2 Decompiling
This process is pretty easy.
- Copy paste the apk file you wish to decompile in the apktool folder.
- Now type in
apktool d filename.apk
- And tadaa , you will get the decompiled apk files in the folder named "filename"
- Similarly, you can decompile almost every apk file.
Part – 3 Recompiling
- Now you have made changes and you wish to build the apk back.
- Suppose that the decompiled files exist in the folder named "filename"
- Then type
apktool b filename
(b= build the apk)
- This will build the apk and name it file.apk located in filename/dist folder.
Part – 4 Signing the APK
Android has a certain security feature which requires the app to be digitally signed in order to be installed.Without this you will see "App not installed" error message while installing the app.
- To sign a app named file.apk use this command,
java -jar signapk.jar certificate.pem key.pk8 file.apk file-signed.apk ( can be whatever name you give to your apk )
This will create a new apk called file-signed.apk which is ready to be installed to a device.
Now you are free to use apktool to mod/theme apps in the way you want.For any questions just comment below.
Have a Good Day !

Nick Leuck
Property Manager
What's your background?
Mechanical Engineering, Energy Sector
Why did you choose to work with Atlas Real Estate Group?
Atlas provides me with the freedom and flexibility for me to adjust my schedule to spend time with my family. I also knew three people already working at Atlas before I joined so I knew I would be working with great colleagues in a great environment.
What is the greatest challenge you see in real estate and how do you work towards overcoming it?
The landlord/tenant relationship too often seems to be two-sided. I'd like to bridge that relationship and have everyone on the same side. I think the best way to do this is to make sure everyone is well informed and each party sees the other's perspective.
What is at the top of your bucket list?
I've been lucky to visit so many locations in this country and outside of it. But the world's just too big to explore in one life time. That being said, I'd like to see as much of it I can. High on the list are visits to Alaska, SE Asia, Japan, Eastern Africa, New Zealand, Patagonia with a return trip to the Dolomites.
What is the greatest advice you've ever received?
You never know what struggles people are battling in their life at the moment so try not to judge, be respectful, and remember that we are all on the same world together.
What recreational activities do you enjoy?
Trail running, climbing, biking, camping, backpacking, exploring, traveling
Where is your favorite place in Colorado?
Just about anywhere above tree line or where there's a good trail. Still so much to explore but probably Telluride is my favorite town at the moment; the San Juans are a beautiful mountain range.

Advent is a season observed as a time of expectant waiting and preparation for the celebration of the Nativity of Jesus at Christmas. The term is an anglicized version of the Latin word adventus, meaning "coming".
Advent is the beginning of the liturgical year and commences on Advent Sunday, the fourth Sunday before December 25.
The season of Advent anticipates the coming of Christ from two different perspectives. The season offers the opportunity to share in the ancient longing for the coming of the Messiah, and to be alert for his Second Coming.
In addition to the blessing of the Advent wreath each Sunday this year we have planned several special events to mark the season of preparation for the miracle of Christmas.
Sunday, December 8. The regular services will feature a children's time and we especially invite families with children to attend.
Sunday, December 22. A special luncheon will be served following the morning services. Everyone is invited to join in a time of carol singing and munching on Christmas pastries and other goodies.

Removing the Veil
The Black Church was called out of mainstream Western Christianity as the moral compass for Christian thinking and teachings requiring it to have a succinct theology with which to subscribe as the reasons for its collective existence. It is not just a social movement nor an aberration but a religious calling within an unjust society for social change intended to be both redemptive and reformative. It is meant to define a relationship with God as God intends for humanity rising out of the immoral practices of slavery. Practices in which certain parts of humanity were even denied an equal creation status in the church. If Christianity could not embrace all of humanity seeking a faith practice within its churches, something was wrong.
Yet at risk is possibly the future of the Black Church if it can not deliver on the understanding of its calling, its purpose and necessity for growth in membership. We witness the increasing superfluous, elaborate and evangelic practices for prosperity over and above worship.
It must be made clear that we (the Black Church) have a historical relationship with God dating back to the start of humanity in Africa being representative of the initial dark skinned humans. An understanding which is not a theory or concept/idea but God for Whom there is no other definition other than Creator. Black Theology is a first theology. An important factor of worship in the Black Church needs to be brevity in its theological understanding for clarity to grasp God's message at large. The goal is to renew the insights to a God consciousness for our interactions with one another.
Too many millenials particularly male describe the Black Church as a white man's religion and as being overly emotional and charismatic but not as addressing their needs. Some increasingly refer to is as a business and not a place of worship rejecting and declining to attend worship services. Why? When the ecclesiology of the Black Church implies or defines it as having been "called out of" the so called white man's religion which had in history denied their foreparents equality in worship. It's calling into existence was for the purpose of social change to address the needs of a people both religiously blinded and socially denied. It is suppose to be addressing these needs to encourage their participation as followers of Biblical teachings. What do we say to this?
The Black Church having been called into existence "called out of" does have doctrines, polity, order of worship even articles of faith but does not have a universal theology to explain and/or define its purpose in God legitimizing a relationship with God. What is our Biblical Theology? What is our relationship with God as pertains to our having been called into existence in America. What something ought the Black Church be doing in America over against the backdrop of race, racism, segregation, bigotry, discrimination, inequality, voting rights challenges, injustices and the abuses of law enforcement.
How should we "Tow the Line" rather than masquerading as just a church and not legitimizing our worship of God as mainstream religion. Are we a chosen people in America promoting redemptive and reformational qualities for social change? If the Black Church has a purpose and/or calling, what is its theology universally?
The Black Church should be viewed as mainstream as any other with a documented Black Theology (first theology) and not be marginalized religiously if considered at all with the prospect of declining into nonexistence.
I am seeking dialogue leading up to the construction of a subscribed theology on Christianity to be utilized by the Black Church universally defining purpose and calling as agents for social change regardless of the nuance of one's denominational standing. Your comments and participation are welcomed here and by email contact on the website.

DANIELSON - The Platt Tech football team showed up to its Friday night game against Quinebaug Valley at 5:40 p.m. - about 20 minutes before the 6 p.m. scheduled kickoff.
Football teams usually arrive at least an hour or more before kickoff to stretch and prepare. The Panthers cited traffic as a reason for the late arrival from their 90-minute trip, causing a 15-minute delay to the starting time. Once the game started, Platt Tech provided very little traffic around Quinebaug Valley's wide-open wideout Jamie Talbot.
Talbot caught touchdown passes of 34, 35 and 39 yards in the first half from Josh Dodd when Quinebaug rolled to a 26-0 lead en route to a 42-0 victory on homecoming night to improve to 2-3.
Dodd passed for a season-high six touchdowns. He finished 11 of 18 for 242 yards. On the season through five games, Dodd has thrown for over 1,300 yards with 20 touchdown passes.
"Jamie and I have a good connection going," Dodd said. "We dissected their defense and schemes looking at film and we knew what we could get tonight."
Talbot set the tone early with a 50-yard kickoff return. On the Pride's second play, Dodd lofted a 34-yard TD pass down the right side to his go-top receiver for a 6-0 lead. Late in the first, Dodd connected with Dodd again for a 35-yard touchdown up the left sideline.
Platt Tech (0-5) drove inside the Quinebaug 20 early in the second quarter only to turn it over on downs on its only sustained drive. The Panthers struggled to block the Pride. Jaylen Brinson, Adrien Casciano, Anthony Navedo and Dylan Manni registered sacks, and Platt Tech quarterback Joe Calzone fumbled twice and saw a shot-gun snap sail over his head for an 18-yard loss in the first half.
Quinebaug busted the game open in the second quarter. Dodd tossed a 39-yard TD pass to Talbot for their third scoring strike and a 18-0 lead with 9:03 left. Dodd flicked a screen pass to back Nicholas Thomasson, who weaved left and right upfield for a 31-yard TD pass with two minutes left. Dodd ran in for two points to make it, 26-0.
Talbot caught four passes for 133 yards in the half.
Dodd tacked on a 46-yard TD pass to back Matt Fitzpatrick on a swing pass in the backfield. Fitzpatrick ran untouched up the left sideline for the score. He was not hit until he was six yards deep in the end zone, resulting in a Platt Tech personal foul and disqualification penalty.
Dodd stayed in the game late and threw a 15-yard TD pass to Casciano with 5:33 left. Dodd passed the two points to Jeff Reed for a 42-0 lead.
"I love playing in this offense," Dodd said. "Quinebaug has always been a ground and pound team under coach Joe Asermelly but he's given us the green light. Jamie is so fast. There isn't a cornerback in this league that can cover him."
Quinebaug Valley passing attack too much for Platt Tech

It's been a thunderous week. As I write this late on Wednesday, there's rolling thunder and cloudbursts overhead, and that's pretty what was going on this time last week, too. For those who think that the vagabond life is all sunshine and blue skies like this:
Sometimes, it's more like this:
The two photos above were taken 2 hours apart on the same day. It's definitely been a weird weather summer in the east!
I spent a lovely three days at Locust Lake State Park in central Pennsylvania. The lake is small but beautiful and the walking path that circumnavigates it includes some lovely views as well as a walk across the earthen dam that keeps the water in the lake.
Between rainstorms, it was hot and humid. How hot? How humid? This is a great blue heron sticking his tongue out, trying to get cool on Saturday. I couldn't figure out what was wrong with the bird, I'd never seen a heron with mouth agape. Luckily for me, the ranger was snapping photos, too, so I asked her. She's a heron expert and explained that a gaping mouth and flapping wings are the only ways the heron has to cool down. I felt for the bird. My mouth was agape, too!
Sunday morning, bright and early, I headed back to what has become one of my favorite spots, Gettysburg. I was here a year ago and realized a brief day trip wasn't going to cut it, so I went back for 4 days this time. I've done my homework over the last year, so I knew the big points of the battle and could appreciate what I was looking at and the monuments I saw.
In the photo above (and the cover photo, a more panoramic view), I am standing where the Confederate Army started their attack on July 3, 1863. That tall spire in the distance marks the Union Army line up on Cemetery Ridge. Between those two points was hellfire and death, the battle of Gettysburg. (I'm working on a longer post about Gettysburg, so consider this the preview photo.)
And to go from serious to silly, I met my friend Peg for lunch today and we did a tour of the Utz potato chip factory in Hanover. Yes, we got to see exactly how chips are made. I saw more chips in one room than I think I've eaten in my entire life! It was fun, though, and I got a free bag of chips at the end, too.
Meanwhile, back at the trailer, I'm fighting an ongoing issue with my trailer brake controller where the wireless remote in the car randomly connects to the controller on the trailer, or not. My dad, the car mechanic, and QA engineers I've worked with have taught me well: I methodically eliminated this, and that, and the other thing over the last few days. Finally called the manufacturer's tech support line, and they literally said "wow, we have never seen one of our units act that way before!" Awesome being the first 🙁 So they are sending my brother a new one and next week when we meet up, I'll test it out and see if the unit itself has been the cause of my brake woes. Fingers crossed it is, and I can see the end of this little issue.
The dogmas of the quiet past are inadequate to the stormy present. The occasion is piled high with difficulty and we must rise with the occasion. As our case is new, so we must think anew, and act anew.
Abraham Lincoln, December 1, 1862

It would be interesting to delve into where Eko Atlantic City stands in the grand scheme of things. How does it compare to its neighbours? Beginning with the context of the subject matter; Lagos has four urban and cosmopolitan centres. These are: Lagos Island, Victoria Island, Ikoyi and Lekki, in no particular order. These centres feature commercial and residential mixes in various proportions. Lagos Island and Victoria Island are more commercial (Relatively speaking) than Ikoyi and Lekki. However, centres are not simply a function of affluence, supply, demand, value and other property related attributes. More importantly centres are a reflection of urban processes and services.
Accordingly, one should not perceive Eko Atlantic City as merely an economic annex or a competitive new realm or alternative. Fundamentally, Eko Atlantic City does not contain the same attributes (processes and services) as any of its neighbouring centres. When we look at the subject of urban consolidation, density, growth and even investment, it is important to note that the production of these qualities is a reflection on the inbuilt processes of any environment.
The Limitation of High Rise growth in Lagos
If we explored the topic of 'High Rise' utilization in Lagos for example, we find some interesting observations.
Anthony Nkem Ede of Convenant University, identified some key parameters that inhibit the proliferation of the High Rise Typology. Some of these include: poor high rise construction regulation and maintenance, self generation of power and water, lack of domestic expertise for high rise buildings, external fire fighting poor response and a lack of structural integrity checks.
Eko Atlantic City essentially addresses all these inhibitors. The video above highlights just how efficient and widespread services will be within the city. Services will be modern, subterranean, efficient and accessible to all developments within the city. Therefore inefficiencies in service provision will not amplify the cost of new builds or the ongoing costs of existing ones. Furthermore the maintenance and protection of such buildings will be more easily be attainable, through more coherent, thorough and applied regulations and services.
Organization & Confidence
This is not only a factor on operation, but also a factor on investment. Investment is hinged on sustainability and confidence. Eko Atlantic City presents a climate that generates confidence and efficiency. Ongoing costs will be lower, but growth will also be higher. Additionally, in Eko Atlantic City we see better organization. Improved organization with the formation of identifiable and modern companies such as Eko Development Company, South Energyx, Eko Pearl Nigeria and Satellite Oil & Gas International Limited. These companies are modern entities with International affiliates, consultants and expertise. Therefore not only is the possibility of growth, more easily attainable in Eko Atlantic City, but the skilled workforce required to deliver such complex projects are widely available.
As mentioned previously, one of the key problems that has stalled the growth of the high rise typology in Lagos is infrastructural in nature. Even by African standards, Nigeria is recognized as having an abysmal electrical consumption rate per capita (National Kwh per capita). Nigeria also has a low percentage of urban piped water access, particularly trailing behind all other countries in the list above, with the exception of Angola.
Where Lagos and Nigeria are doing quite well, is however in economic terms. The growth rate of Nigeria is well above global and African averages and ahead of that of Kenya, Angola, South Africa and Egypt for the projected period of 2015-2019. The ROI is also quite high in Nigeria and one of the key elements of this can be found in rental yields. The prime yield in Lagos for example, is only significantly lower than Luanda in the list above. Lagos is the economic heartbeat of Nigeria, but it should be noted that as a percentage of national population, other centres in Africa such as Luanda, Cairo, Abidjan and Nairobi are more crucial centres for their respective countries. Therefore these cities represent a disproportionate manifestation of their respective nation's urban output.
Built Environment
One cannot or should not have an intellectual discussion about high rise proliferation, without considering the physical aspects. In real terms, Lagos needs high rise constructions. It has the highest density among the major Metropolitan areas in Africa, according to many list. In this list above that we compiled, it trails only slightly behind Abidjan. Urban density is high and thus land prices are extremely costly in many places. High rises are necessitated by its physical reality.
Structural Framework
Naturally, Lagos trails behind the South Africa centres due to their enhanced infrastructural systems and the ease of conducting business in Africa's most industrialized nation. However, it is a little puzzling that Lagos trails behind the East African centres of Nairobi and Dar es Salaam. One explanation could be found in the historical significance of these two centres, another appropriate finding however lies in the improved service provisions of these East African cities and also in the structural framework of Dar es Salaam (Tanzania).
The Unit TItles Act of 2008 (Tanzania) is more comprehensive and less restrictive than Nigeria's Land Use Act (2004), i.e. the LUA. These acts, effectively allow individual owners to own part of a building (unit). This can also be described as a strata title. Giving ownership to multiple owners, allows the synthesis of service provision and fuels the growth of dense developments, via multiple investors. The difference between Tanzania and Nigeria however, is in the level of restrictiveness. For example in Tanzania the entitlement of unit ownership can also extend to common areas within a building (such as lifts, lobbies, driveways), whereas in Nigeria, owners are not entitled to interest over these areas. Consequently we see a market in Tanzania that is easier to invest in and operate in and this is to an extent a factor in dense urban growth.
Historical Legacy and Future Anticipation
When considering the historical legacy of Lagos; as perhaps the only notable city in Africa to "Abandon" the imprint of its traditional CBD - the lack of structure and organization in Lagos is amplified even further. Victoria Island, Ikoyi and Lekki do not have a history of commercial organization and direction and thus, this also restricts the growth of densification. The Lagos State Government itself has zoned many areas of these communities and in such areas, development is restricted to 15 Floors or even below. Other Africa centres do have parallel urban districts to rival their historic centres, such as Westlands in Nairobi or Sandton in Johannesburg. However these areas have not emerged to the detriment of the historical cores, as is the case in Lagos.
Lagos is a city that is restricted by its past; the failure to consolidate on the gains of Lagos Island, but it is also hanging in the balance of the Eko Atlantic phenomenon. Densification is heading the way of Eko Atlantic City and it is believed that a lot of investors are anticipating the area as the prime choice for future expansion.
Eko Atlantic City offers everything that is restricted in Lagos Island, Victoria Island and other centres. It also offers improved organization and infrastructural provision. It will be Lagos's immediate answer to urban densification. Within 10 years, we project that Lagos should rise to the top 3 in Africa in High Rise frequency.

The Last Thing She Told Me – Linda Green
The Last Thing She Told Me – Linda Green
Delighted to bring an early review for the ebook release of The Last Thing She Told Me (Quercus Books) by Linda Green. The ebook is released today (26th July) with the book being issued March 2019. This is the story of the families and secrets that come to life and then a grisly discovery.
This is basically a death bed confession story of a family that clearly had their problems. Nicola is sitting by the bedside of her grandmother who is close to dying. But what happens next completely takes Nicola's breath away. Her grandmother whispers some words and then slips away. But it is those words that will shape the entire storyline. "There are babies at the bottom of the garden". What on earth was her grandmother saying.
Nicola decides she is not going to rest until she investigates further and then a grim discovery. Her mum wants her to leave things alone and that spooks Nicola. Now the police have arrived and the story takes a sinister turn for the worst. Nicola's mum now severs ties with her. Why? What could possibly have been going on in that house? The neighbourhood is full of quiet talk of all sorts of terrible stories.
Nicola is not the sort of person to leave things as they are and she knows she must get to the bottom of the story. But now she is being threatened but she does not know who is threatening her. These are dangerous moments for her and her own family. The past may hold the key to the story and this is where Nicola must delve into. There are so many questions and the answers must be found.
There are a number of twists and turns along the way and some may surprise you. Some of the story-line was a little predictable but overall I found this to be a really enjoyable and at times absorbing.
384 Pages.
Thank you to Milly Reid at Quercus Books for the review copy of The Last Thing She Told Me by Linda Green.
The Last Thing She Told Me by Linda Green was published by Quercus Books and was published via an early eBook on 26th July 2018.
The Things We Thought We Knew by Mahsuda Snaith – eBook cover Re-launch
I am delighted to share Mahsuda Snaith's debut novel The Things We Thought We Knew and is being re-launched with a new eBook cover. A story of a young Bengali woman is who confined to bed with chronic pain since an accident some years previous. Here she now reflects on the past.
Ravine has not left her bed in the last decade, confined to the council flat in Leicester since her best friend Marianne disappeared. She has just celebrated her 18th birthday and with a bleak future ahead of her, she cannot leave the flat because she is in so much pain her mother as you can imagine is desperate for her daughter to try and make an effort 'Will you at least try' are the words from her mother. There is a sense that coming through the story that Ravine is using the pain as she is not in any hurry to make any effort. Her mother gives her a notebook to use as a pain dairy and then we journey back through the years as Ravine uses the diary to open her heart about her best friend Marianne and her disappearance. What really happened that day? As Ravine writes the reader is pulled into an intriguing journey and a story on an affecting friendship. It is clear that Ravine is hiding from the outside world even scared and hiding beneath the duvet provides her with security.
An intriguing coming of age story that will keep the reader guessing as to what really happened to Ravine's best friend. This outstanding debut novel has some great characters that are so believable that weave through the story. With Mahsuda Snaith writing the initial novel when she was only sixteen. Impressive writing from a new and exciting author. From here I look forward to future books from Mahsuda Snaith.
Thank you to Thomas Hill at Transworld for the opportunity to share the new cover for Mahsuda Snaith and The Things We Thought We Knew in eBook.
