For human beings, it is completely normal and natural to become comfortable with the norm. It is about safety and security, and even your old wallpaper, carpets or wall lights can make you feel at peace in your own home. However, just because you are comfortable, that doesn't mean you shouldn't try something new. It could be that the industrial wall lights that you have had for years, or the carpet that you love so much really do need to be refreshed – even changed completely. Fashions change, and unless you are going for a completely retro or vintage style, you won't want old lighting – it's time to update your look.
And of course sometimes, after a while, things wear out. Carpets can become threadbare and even lighting might not work in the way it once did. When this happens, the only alternative in many cases is to buy new. But rather than feeling regretful, you should think of this as a new opportunity to try something different. A new kind of lighting scheme can brighten up your home in more ways than one. It can even refresh a space at minimal cost if you don't presently have the time or the money to redecorate.
An industrial wall sconce light might be the very thing that makes a big difference in your home. If you need advice, don't hesitate to get in touch on 01580 712805 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.

Usually, high maintenance women get a bad reputation. We have been called stuck up, uptight, crazy, opinionated and most men are intimidated by us. Why is that? It is mainly because we know what we want and will not stop until we get it.
My girlfriend and I was having a discussion about "High Maintenance vs. Down To Earth Women". Her theory was that, one could not be down to earth and high maintenance. My rebuttal was that they are not one in the same. I consider myself to be very high maintenance and down to earth. We went through the below exercise and turns out you can be high maintenance and down to earth:
You know the old saying, 'Birds of a feather flock together."? This is true of high maintenance women.
Do the majority of your friends care about their appearance? Do you have special days set aside when you get manicures, pedicures or hit the salon? When Drake came out with "Fancy" was that your national anthem? Nails done, hair done, everything did?
If you have answered yes to one or all of the above questions then you my dear are high maintenance!
- High maintenance women love to look good. They take pride in what they wear and it's not just to be noticed. It is because they genuinely want to look good for themselves. Many women like to dress nice to attract men and when they get a man, they let themselves go. A high maintenance women dresses up for herself. Just because she has a man does not mean that taking care of herself goes out the window. She looks and dresses nice because it is apart of who she is. It is ingrained in her DNA.
- She is not afraid to express her true feelings or tell it like it is. If something is bothering her, she lets you know. High maintenance women tend to have a high self esteem and look for perfection. If there is a problem, she will either try to fix it or scream it from the hills.
- All of her girlfriends have very similar attributes. They are either smart, sexy or dress to kill. When you get them all together, they are a force to be reckoned with. Think the ladies from Girlfriends or Sex and The City.
- As in her appearance, she is very serious about her goals and career. She does not drop everything she is doing for a man or anyone. She understands her true worth and any guy that wants or deserves her will understand the same or can wait!
- Her standards are high, when it comes to relationships and friendships. She knows what she wants in a man and never settles for the first guy that says "I love you" or "Hello". With a truly high maintenance women, the guy has to work to gain her love and trust...and he is never 100% sure because she runs a tight ship. Friends are high on the priority list and loyalty is the main criteria. She has no time for nonsense or drama since she is mostly focus on achieving her goals. The first sign of "You said and I said" or arguments...you can expect her to call you less or be missing in action.
- She may seem aloof, cold or made of stone but this is not her intention. She is really down to earth and friendly (once you get to know her). She does not give affection and praise to just anyone. When she gives a compliment, you know it's genuine! She is the friend that you can always run to when you want her honest opinion.
Of course, not all high maintenance women meet the above criteria to a T (tee)...but they come close.
Here are some shows of high maintenance women that I love!
So tell me....Are you high maintenance?

H&F Council have a thing about developers, and this wednesday will see a final planning application decision which will affect the future look of Goldhawk Road for those that live in Brackenbury. The industrial estate stands to be redeveloped by London & Newcastle into a dense mix of housing and commercial units which will sweep the existing small and thriving companies off the estate. None of these companies wants to leave. The Council seem not too fussed about the impact this would have on existing residents, who are up in arms and running a campaign to save their neighbourhood.
One resident commented "The estate is surrounded by a residential area. Traffic, parking stress, noise, light pollution, security problems, intrusion - this redevelopment package has got everything. And it would mean the loss of a light industrial estate which nurtured JC Decaux and is currently home to Innocent Drinks and The Soundhouse, one of the capital's busiest recording studios,"
In fact at this meeting last week it did seem a bit bizarre that we were hearing about how Thames Water were trying to stop people being flooded with sewage in eactly this area yet this development would be connecting lots more people to a system that is unable to cope with the strain already on it. Several residents cited this planning application specifically as an example of the council putting profits before people.
The council are quite clear that they want the redevelopment to go ahead and accordingly planning officers have given their masters the recommendation they wanted. Residents are dead set against it however, and commissioned Patrick Clarkson QC to advise them. His advice to residents, the summary of which I have printed below, is pretty devastating. He states that the proposed development is not in accordance with planning policy, is in detriment to the local area and "should not be allowed". Surely this can't now be nodded through? At the very least it looks like it needs more thinking about if not abandoning altogether if even some of this advice is accurate. Given the QC in question is one of the top planning lawyers in the UK its fair to assume what he says is indeed accurate.
The meeting will be this wednesday at 7pm, Hammersmith Town Hall. Report to follow.
Patrick Clarkson QC's advice:
Density: the application scheme is overdeveloped and too dense, creating substandard accommodation. The density is not endorsed by the London Plan, contrary to the assertion in the LBHF PAC Report.
Land Use: the Estate is not a brownfield site (ref PPS3), contrary to the assertion in the LBHF PAC Report. The existing use provides 3500sq m (including mezzanine floors) fully serviced commercial space housing successful businesses employing over 180 persons, including Innocent Drinks, who have been on the Estate since the firm began, and Soundhouse Ltd, who have been on the Estate for over 20 years in high quality sound recording studios used by the BBC and film companies.
The application scheme provides 2003 sq m commercial space, of lower quality commercial standard in every respect, being in a residential setting, no street frontage, limited parking, and wholly unsuitable for the type of entrepreneurial business operations currently thriving on the site.
Design: the proposals ignore Council and London Plan policies iterated in many sources requiring developments adjacent to conservation areas to protect, preserve and enhance both the conservation area and the existing neighbourhood; irrespective of visual style, the bulk massing, the scale and the street layout is quite alien to the Brackenbury area.
Amenity: no children's play area is provided, without cause which might allow financial contribution in lieu . The proposed Home Zone recreation and play area provides for the access and turning area for delivery vehicles and is unsafe for children.
Conclusion: the application contravenes planning policy and is detrimental to the neighbourhood and should not be allowed.

"Uncle Danny?" Daniel Lyme turned his head to see his oldest niece standing in the doorway, amazed all over again by how much she'd grown in the six years he'd been gone, serving in the war.
Sitting up, he patted the couch beside him invitingly. "What is it, Jane?"
"I was looking through Aunt Linda's photo album," the seven-year-old told him as she scrambled up to sit close beside him. "And I found this picture."
Daniel looked at the picture she meant and felt his heart clench in his broad chest. A black-and-white version of himself stood in the middle, curly brown hair falling into his eyes. On his right stood his girlfriend at the time, Linda Trent (now Johnson), long pale blonde hair pulled back into a careful style that had been all the rage at the time. On his left stood his best friend and Linda's twin brother, Thomas Trent, wavy sandy brown hair refusing to stay slicked down, no matter how hard he tried. Clearing his throat, he asked, "Why are you pointing out this picture?"
"Who's the other man with you and Aunt Linda?" Jane asked curiously. "I recognize the other people in the photos, but I don't recognize him."
He gazed at the image for a long moment. It was the last one they'd taken together before heading off to England to help: he and Thomas as pilots and Linda as a nurse. Daniel took a deep breath. "He's Linda's twin brother. He went with me to England in '39 to serve in their Eagle Squadron."
"Why didn't he come back with you after V-E Day?" she inquired innocently. "Did he die?"
Blinking back tears, he explained gently. "We don't know. He was shot down behind enemy lines and we never heard from him again."
"Until now, that is," Linda commented from the bedroom doorway.
Uncle and niece looked up from the photo album to see Linda standing there, pale blonde hair cut in a practical bob now. While Jane scrambled down from the couch to greet her adopted aunt with a hug, Daniel slowly got to his feet, staring at the man standing beside Linda. Thomas Trent looked as if he'd aged more than six years, thinner than Daniel could ever remember him being. He smiled hesitantly at his childhood friend. "Hello, Dan."
"Tom?" Daniel whispered, making an abortive move with his missing left arm for the arm of the couch beside him. He sat back down with a thump, too shocked and overwhelmed to remain standing.
As his best friend moved further into the room, Daniel noticed for the first time that Thomas was leaning on a cane. "I'm no ghost, Dan. May I join you?"
"Please do." The taller man managed a relieved joyful smile as he drank in the sight of his shorter, more slender friend.
Neither man noticed that Linda and Jane had left, closing the bedroom door behind them, as Thomas finished crossing the room and sank down onto the couch beside Daniel with a relieved sigh. "I barely managed to get away from my family to come see you."
"Do we have Linda to thank for your visit?" Daniel asked with a wry smile, hesitantly resting his remaining arm across the back of the couch behind Thomas' slim shoulders.
Leaning back against the muscular arm, Thomas nodded. "Yes, and my brother-in-law."
"I'll be sure to thank them when I see them next," he murmured, curling his arm around the slender shoulders.
Thomas let out a deep sigh as he leaned into Daniel's warm bulk. "You do that."
"I missed you so much, Tom," he whispered, his arm tightening around the smaller man.
Much to his pleasure and delight, Thomas pressed even closer to Daniel. "I missed you, too, Dan."
"May I kiss you?" He almost wanted to take the words back the moment they were out, but he was too interested in the answer.
Tilting his head back, Thomas met Daniel's hopeful brown eyes with tearful blue ones. "Please do."
When their lips met, Daniel felt as if he was finally home again. They didn't pull apart until the need for oxygen necessitated it. "Merry Christmas, Dan."
"Merry Christmas, Tom."
I'm a 27-year-old hopeful author who's been writing since I was a wee mite of a thing with no real idea of what made a good story 'good'. I feel fanfic has helped me immensely with my original story-writing and I hope that it will continue to help me as I continue to work towards my goal of being a published author.

Many students strive to get a full ride academic scholarship. A full ride scholarship will cover the cost of tuition, room and board and possibly books. The competition for a full ride academic scholarship is stiff. It is important to plan and work for the scholarship from the time you enter high school. It is a competition of extracurricular activities in attention to the class load, grades and test scores.
Plan your schedule to include higher weighted academic classes such as honors and advanced placement classes. These classes receive more points in a weighted GPA and will increase your chances of getting an academic scholarship.
Study and get the best grades that you can. Tutoring may pay off if it raises your grade point average. Attending study sessions and completing extra credit can also help.
Participate in several extracurricular activities. Colleges look for well-rounded individuals to award full-ride academic scholarships to. The National Honor Society, Key Club and sports teams gives you the opportunity to round out your application.
Prepare for the SAT or ACT. The score you get on this test weighs heavily on your chance at a full ride academic scholarship. A test preparation course can help you to do your best to receive a full ride academic scholarship.
Ask teachers for letters of recommendation. These letters make a big difference when comparing two similar candidates. Build good relationships with your teachers each year to help you receive good letters of recommendation.
Apply for the full ride academic scholarships at the university you will be attending. Additionally, you can look for full ride academic scholarships online and apply for them.
Be sure to apply for other scholarships as well, since the competition for full ride scholarships is so fierce.
Many universities have an interview process before awarding a full ride academic scholarship. Prepare for the interview by practicing with a teacher or mentor. Confidence in an interview is essential to making a good impression.

The paddock in Melbourne was quiet yesterday but the sun was shining and everyone seemed keen to get the season going. I laughed somewhat when Renault used a surfing theme to launch the new (crème anglaise) colour scheme because, in the lounge at Charles de Gaulle en route to Melbourne, Cyril Abiteboul and I had a discussion about surfing and I see now that he was teasing me gently – without me even realising I was being teased. Well, good for him. Still, I get to tease teams as well… Today (Australian time) is the day Aston Martin announces its plans in F1. Yes, there still are some. Manufacturer power in F1 grows – but only a tiny little bit. Don't expect anything with Force India. It is not happening with them. That idea went up in smoke along with Vijay Mallya's trousers. Still, it was never a great marketing fit.
Aston Martin is James Bond.
Mallya? The name's Bond. Junk Bond.

My personal view on anime, as it is become a visible media niche in the world. Just like any other media, it has its share of pukes and good ones....this is my view on it. Whimsical? Informative? Overly serious? Too silly? Why the hell am I still watching anime? Thoughts like this runs through my mind here.

Malaysian Animation: PASPERA, Malaysiia at War 2057
Animation is not bad but voice acting is...erm, bad. Like, the voice actors were too bored to say the lines or something. And they don't try very hard to get into the character either. I wonder how the jet fighters can maneuver without the tails too.
This vid was made in celebration for Malaysia's National Day every 31st August, this particular clip was shown in 2008.

Two days later I'm still thinking of what I heard Juan Salinas talking about. Getting this portrait of him reflects a lot of what I heard.
I love the song of the mockingbird,
Bird of four hundred voices,
I love the color of the jadestone
And the intoxicating scent of flowers,
But more than all I love my brother, man.

They Belong
Last night I was feverishly putting the finishing touches on some teacher gifts for the boys' "village". I had 18, yes, EIGHTEEN, fantastic people to write thank you's to, buy gifts for, and thank for a job well done.
As I was shaking a hand cramp out from using a hole punch to do some gift card magic (I NEED to stay off Pinterest), I saw a notification on my phone that Jean, who blogs at Stimeyland, had written a new post. I decided to take a wee little break from my sweatshop (seriously, I did say "feverishly") and read her post. My heart sank. I wanted to cry. I wanted to scream. It was as if I had ripped a scab off of a fresh wound. You can read the post here. (And if you're not well acquainted with her blog, I suggest you read some more…she writes some great stuff.)
Her son, and a couple of other kiddos who are in a segregated classroom because their learning styles are a smidge different from the average John Q. Student, were not included on a 5th grade "graduate" bulletin board. It took NINE weeks to get said kiddos on the board. And this was only after one of the other moms had raised her voice and then, in an act of awesomeness, took a picture of the three excluded kids and posted that sucker on the board.
Just this week, we experienced something similar…and you know what, it hurts. The boys' last day of school is today. Earlier in the week, the boys got their long-awaited yearbooks. I know, I know…yearbooks in elementary school….but they are really well done, and this year we could personalize 2 pages for our children. So, of course, I had to buy TWO yearbooks. Clever, PTO, clever!!!
The first thing Tate did when he got home from school was rip the yearbook from his folder. He shredded the plastic off of that sucker faster than I could say, "hang on!". Looking at pictures of his friends is highly motivating for him. It always has been. He opened to the front 2 pages that I personalized. He carefully looked at each picture. The impulsivity that we usually see was gone. He was calm. He was smiling–from ear to ear. He was touching each picture of him and his classmates. He was in his happy place.
After perusing his personalized pictures, Tate wanted to see his class picture. Who wouldn't? Now, I don't know if all districts are like this, but in ours, the self-contained classrooms do not get their own pictures in the school year book. Privacy and all that jazz. (I, personally, don't care, but I get it…) Tate went to the general education class that he pushes into. There he found his beaming face from September. He also found the 3 other kiddos who push into that classroom with him. He wanted to know where his other friends were. I told him to turn to the next page.
We turned the page…. And the 4 other children from his classroom were not in there!!!!! Three of them made the candid photos on the other side of the spread, but there are 4 children in second grade who did.not.get.into.the.yearbook. I kept looking. I checked Jake's yearbook. They weren't in there either. It was totally an oversight..and NO ONE CAUGHT IT. And insult to injury?! The group photo from a class party (every class has one group photo on the candid page) doesn't include the 4 kiddos, either. Tate's class does…but this one didn't. (I was not on the Yearbook committee…but I have now offered my services as a proofreader and copy editor…I kind of did that before I decided to quit my outside job.)
I am hurt. We're all about "inclusion", and yet, it is very clear that sometimes, we don't belong. Do you know how that feels? Chances are that everyone does…and it really stinks. I know it was human error and oversight..but seriously…FOUR SECOND GRADERS WERE LEFT OUT OF THE YEARBOOK..and that's not right. They belong, dammit. They belong, they are a part of that school, and they should be in that yearbook. They spend 10 months, give or take, with these other children. They eat lunch beside them. They play dodgeball in gym with them. Some even participate in science or math with them. And to leave them out of the yearbook is total, utter, garbage.
I also sent a letter to the Yearbook chair to let her know. I copied Tate's fantastic teacher. Know what? She was never asked to review the yearbook. Not once. And you know what? She would have caught this and made sure it was fixed…because she knows. She knows how fantastic each and every one of these kids are..and the special qualities that they bring to the table, so to speak.
There was an apology issued. The yearbook chair sent an email out to the teachers, and copied me on it. Tate's teacher asked if she would send an apology to the families affected, and the yearbook chair did that too. The apology helps…and I am now a sitting member on the yearbook committee, so that should help…but for right now? It is fresh and it stings.
Simply: They belong. We need to be respectful of all of our school community. Every.single.one.

There are three simple but insightful reasons why homeownership is important according to houselogic.com.
Historically, home owners' net worth has ranged from 31 to 46 times that of renters.
A fixed-rate mortgage might not change for 15 to 30 years; rent typically increases 3% per year.
Every home purchased pumps $60,000 into the economy. Wow! What a great reason to purchase a home today! Not to mention historically low interest rates at or below 4%!
If you have been thinking about purchasing a home call me today at 918-906-9525 or visit my website at http://www.wheredreamscomehome.com/and set up your profile page. I will contact you quickly and help you get started with the process.

With higher numbers of customers using their smartphones to access product information online whilst shopping in stores, the retail industry is changing rapidly.
Irrespective of the market niche, brick-and-mortar retailers and brands are struggling to keep up with the accelerating pace of change. Unfortunately, not all of them succeed.
To help, marketing experts have analysed the causes of retail marketing fails and reached an interesting conclusion: lack of marketing consistency is one of the reasons why retailers and brands are unable to attract enough customers in order to reach their goals.
Over the years, marketing consistency has become an essential element to any brand's growth and longevity. In a nutshell, consistency can help a company build a seamless and personalised customer experience, which will eventually lead to improved customer satisfaction and higher conversion rates, at no extra cost.
A new research study substantiates the advantages of marketing consistency, specifying that a consistent message can increase purchase intent by 90 percent and improve brand perception by 68 percent.
Conversely, an inconsistent marketing strategy that communicates contradictory messages is likely to cause confusion, with "a negative impact" on the overall customer experience, in-store sales, and bottom lines.
As an experienced marketing professional, Leon Edwards, Managing Director at DisplayMode, also confirms the importance of marketing consistency for a positive omni-channel retailing experience.
From a marketing perspective, however, consistency isn't only about placing customers in the centre of your retail marketing strategy and using multiple channels to interact with them on a regular basis; it's also about ensuring consistency in what you're saying.
As Leon Edwards has recently explained, marketing consistency, at its most basic level, consists in replicating "what we see online, or in magazines, or on TV with what's in store".
For the best results, it's very important to achieve consistency across every area of your business, including:
In addition to all these, delivering shoppers a more superior omni-channel experience is possible only if the company adopts a holistic approach to the overall shopping journey. A holistic approach involves a seamless integration of all the communication channels, sales channels, and devices people typically use to make purchases in-store. This will allow any company to provide a more straightforward and personalised shopping experience, at a local level.
One essential yet often overlooked aspect relating to marketing consistency is remarketing.
Although remarketing has become one of the fundamentals for building a successful online business, "that constant reminder is a great thing brands and retailers don't do in stores or offline", according to Leon Edwards.
But when it comes to retail marketing strategies, retailers and brands should go beyond binary thinking approaches. In order to set itself apart from the competition, a company needs a combination of multiple online and offline marketing tactics.
Therefore, the key takeaway here is: by integrating different online and offline marketing concepts and activities, and adapting to the latest digital demands, a brick-and-mortar retailer or brand will be able to achieve end-to-end marketing consistency across all channels, remain relevant in today's fast-paced, hyper-connected digital world, and deliver a more satisfying in-store experience.
Another point worth mentioning is that brick-and-mortar retailers and brands can use advances in technology, such as QR codes and beacons, to effectively respond to evolving expectations and offer a more cohesive shopping journey.
Take, for example, an online retailer that emails a promotional offer to drive potential customers to its website. The people who click on the link included in the email are taken to a specific page where they can benefit from the offer.
As surprising as it may seem, a retailer or brand can do a similar thing in-store. Let's assume that a customer wants to buy a new pair of football boots in a sports shop. Using POS interactive displays integrated with beacon technology and synchronised with other devices, the retailer could track what the customer is looking at and provide additional information or product alternatives. Also, this technology allows the retailer to identify when the person is in close proximity to certain aisles and send him or her different messages with product information or special offers.
Thanks to rapidly evolving technologies, physical stores might soon be able to link the information collected in-store with customer accounts. Then, based on individual preferences, not only could brick-and-mortar retailers and brands ensure that "each customer remains in touch with certain products further down the line", according to Leon Edwards. They would be able to achieve true marketing consistency as well, in both form and content.
To learn more about how the implementation of certain retail marketing initiatives, such as the POS displays we provide at DisplayMode, can help you build a unified brand identity and deliver coherent, harmonious, and meaningful customer experiences across all channels, please don't hesitate to contact us with any questions you may have.

Advances in modern medicine in recent years have resulted in a remarkable increase in the number of human infants who survive a premature birth. Many of these infants undergo stressful perinatal and prenatal experiences, and require special care and attention in order for their physical and mental development to be optimal. If that goal is to be met, care-givers need to receive feedback from the infants, indicating how they are affected by treatment and stimulation. In this study, preterm infants displayed behavioral differentiation of various tactile stimuli. A number of behaviors are highlighted, which are indicative of physiological integration of environmental stimuli, and which can be used by care-givers as guides in their interaction with the infants.

Traces of Racial Exception: Racializing Israeli Settler Colonialism
By Ronit Lentin (Bloomsbury Academic, 2018).
Book launch speech, 19 October 2018, Trinity College Dublin
Sponsored by the MPhil in Race, Ethnicity and Conflict, and Academics for Palestine, and launched by Professor Neve Gordon, School of Law, Queen Mary College London.
Much has changed since I finished the book, including the IDF wanton massacre of unarmed protesters in the Gaza Great March of Return as of March 2018, leading, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health and the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, to murdering 209 unarmed protesters (including 41 children, 2 journalists and 3 paramedics) and injuring more than 22,500 (of whom over 5,500 with live ammunition); the threatened demolition of the unrecognised Bedouin village Khan al Akhmar; the arrest and subsequent release of the Palestinian teenager Ahed Tamimi; the imprisonment and subsequent release of the Palestinian poet Dareen Tatour; the lynching of three Palestinian citizens on a beach in Israel; and above all, the passage of the racist 2018 Nation State Bill. However, you can never put a final full stop when writing about the Palestine present, as things are getting worse daily, just when you think that they cannot get any worse…
In this talk I outline briefly my choice to use the lens of race to analyse Israel's permanent war against the Palestinians. I prefer not to use the hackneyed terms 'Israel/Palestine' or 'Palestine/Israel' – because such coupling masks unequal power. Nor do I call this war 'the Israeli-Palestinian conflict'. This is not a conflict but rather colonization, and to analyse colonization you need to use the lens of race, as argued by the late theorist of settler colonialism Patrick Wolfe in his posthumous 2016 book Traces of History: Elementary Structures of Race: "race is colonialism speaking, in idioms whose diversity reflects the variety of unequal relationships into which Europeans have co-opted conquered populations."
In March 2016 IDF medic Elor Azaria shot to death Abdel al-Fattah al-Sharif, an unarmed Palestinian, minutes after soldiers shot, wounded and 'neutralized' him for attempting to stab an Israeli soldier, while he was lying on the ground unable to move. Azaria was charged with murder, later transmuted to manslaughter.
Al Sharif was one of 181 Palestinian 'terror suspects' extra-judicially executed between October 2015 and March 2016. The killing was supported by 65 per cent of Israeli Jews; 67 per cent supported pardoning Azaria, who was backed by Netanyahu, Lieberman, and other public figures, and by thousands of Israeli demonstrators shouting 'death to the Arabs'. Azaria is far from unique: of 186 IDF criminal investigations in 2015, only four led to indictments. Azaria was tried only because he was filmed by the Palestinian cameraman 'Imad Abu Shamsiyeh, who received many death threats after the video went viral.
Azaria was given a lenient jail sentence of 18 months, leading Palestinian Knesset member Jamal Zahalka to call Israel a 'democracy of guns.' Having served half of his sentence, Azaria is feted as a national hero … But as Neve Gordon writes, Azaria 'is in no way an aberration of Israel's colonial project, but rather a clear symptom of its very structure'.
The Azaria case illustrates the centrality of race to Israel's permanent war against Palestine. First, the ease with which a Jewish Israeli soldier can extra-judicially execute an unarmed helpless Palestinian illustrates the racialization and dehumanization of Palestinians by Israeli Jews, whose white Jewish supremacy parallels their sense of victimhood. Second, Azaria being an Arab (Mizrahi) Jew demonstrates the racialization of Arab Jews in Israel's complex racial reality. According to Israeli sociologist Yehouda Shenhav, Azaria's trial would have gone differently had he been Ashkenazi: 'The Mizrahi is not one of us – we are more moral, better. The trial expresses superiority disguised as morality'. Third, Azaria's conviction heightened Israelis' sense of victimhood, the other side of the settler colonial race coin – colonizers on the one hand, eternal victims on the other, a lethal cocktail.

When you have lost custody of your children, you must prove to the court that your situation has changed to regain custody of them. Judges are hesitant to move children from parent to parent unless there is a compelling reason to do so, such as a drastic change in circumstance for one of the parents. If your children are in foster care, the same situation applies: You must prove that you are now a fit parent. The court usually requires that the parent seeking custody writes a letter explaining his or her change in circumstances.
The Introduction
Begin the letter by typing your address, without your name. Remember to type include the date, "The Honorable (first and last name of the judge)," the court's name and the court's address on subsequent lines. Skip another line and type "Dear Judge (last name)" followed by a colon.
State Your Case
State your name, case or docket number, and that you are seeking to regain custody of your children. Provide the names and ages of the children. For example, "My name is Maureen McCoy; my case number is 765F. I am writing to request that I regain custody of my two minor children, Carrie McCoy, age 7, and Sean McCoy, age 13."
Describe What's Changed
Detail the reasons why your circumstances have changed. For example, if your children were removed from your custody due to a drug problem, state the date you completed rehab, how long you have been clean, and any other positive steps you have taken to make your life better.
Request a Hearing
Request a hearing to evaluate your suitability for regaining custody. State that you are willing to cooperate with the court on any conditions that it sees fit to place on you, such as a home visit or that you submit to regular drug testing, for example.
Closing the Letter and Things to Remember
Thank the judge for his or her time. Provide your telephone number and e-mail address in case the judge needs to contact you in regard to your case. Close the letter by typing "Sincerely," and skip three line spaces. Type your full name. Print the letter and sign your name above your typed name in blue or black ink.
Remember to retain a copy of the letter for your records. Mail the original via registered mail so you have confirmation of the date and time the court received your letter.

The Midland Drive project is a $9 million project with the Utah Department of Transportation Region 1. The project consists of 1.25 miles of urban reconstruction, and Portland Cement Concrete Pavement. The project began in December of 2014 and is scheduled to be complete at the end of this year.
Major challenges early in the project were replacing water lines for 3 different organizations, along with significant 3rd party utility work by 4 utility companies.
Being an urban street, public involvement and maintaining access to homes and businesses has added to the complexity.
When complete, this section of Midland Drive will have 2 lanes in each direction, center turn lanes, shoulders and bike lanes, along with curb, gutter and sidewalk.
Project Manager is Betty Purdie, and Construction Manager is Derek Harames

text: If you thought "I Kissed a Girl" was kinky, check out this cute satire of Katy Perry's hit song, which is done in an "elderly remix" by Venetian Princess, aka YouTube star Jodie-Amy Rivera. In this version, the girl in question is a denture-crème-cemented, liver spotted dinosaur who's definitely legal, if not necessarily breathing. Generations proceed to mingle with a wacky abandon that makes The Reader look positively banal by comparison. This clip has been up for ages–in fact, it's gotten over 14 million hits–but I'm old and do things very slowly now. In fact, I still haven't kissed a girl!

Hi, serendipityguy! We don't have a timeline to share, but Samsung is currently working on an Oreo update for the S7E. Once that's complete, we'll test it, then there may be a little kink-ironing-out, and after that's complete the update will be pushed. You can follow along with the process on our Software updates page!

LOL... According to your own support page, T-Mobile isn't even working on an upgrade, for the 7 Edge.... There's an "agreement" to look at it, but nothing more.....

Hey there, winnt64! If you visit the Software Updates page and click on the S7E, it should take you here: Samsung Galaxy S7 edge: Updated to Android 8.0 -- this means that the agreement to update is complete and now the manufacturer (in this case, Samsung) is in the process of creating an update for the device. Once they're done, we'll test it, and then if fixes are necessary, the manufacturer will complete those. On the Software Updates page, if you scroll down past the device images, you'll see an outline of the process for an update's completion. You're correct to say that T-Mobile isn't working on the update -- we don't complete them, the manufacturer does -- but it is being worked on by Samsung.

I agree with Marissa (tmo_marissa) and it was not that hard to find that the s7 or s7 edge page that says it is complete, and to wait for release. So many threads for Oreo, it is almost sickening to just go to forums and Oreo this and Oreo that. Samsung is full of them too, and they are just mostly asking the same question on different threads. Why can't people just be patient? I know it is taking a long time but harassing does not make it faster. Be happy your getting updates at all.

Today's post is probably some of the busiest nail art I've done in a while. While I prefer simple/clean looking nail art, I wanted to get some more practice in with acrylic paints. And... well... I just love Halloween manis ;)
Colors Used: KBShimmer - Eclipse, Painted Polish - Drunk on Holo, Candied Apple Polish - Starch and Lilacs, Acrylic Paints
There's a lot going on here! Let me start with my inspiration hahaha. I've been trying to think outside the box with my Halloween manis this year. I want to challenge myself to try other things. After 3 years of Frankenstein's... he needs a little rest :P
So I thought what about a bubbling cauldron? I'm loving bubble art right now! Then the classic Shakespearean witches chant popped into my head. "Double, double, toil and trouble. Fire burn and cauldron bubble!" I was sold. A witch mani it would be!
I did this in stages because I had very limited time on my hands (ha!). I stared with my base colors (2 coats for each), top coated and went to work. I woke up the next day and started on my design with acrylic paint. I need more practice with letters *sigh*. But I do love the way the witch and cauldron came out :D
Hmmm... what other Halloween things bubble? Lol I'm a little obsessed!
I hope you like it! Like I said, I know it's busy but sometimes that's a good thing right? ;)
Until next time!

Today's post comes out of necessity for me to get something off of my chest. There is so much talk in the media about what it means to be skinny and even a definition of "fat." We are seeing "fat-shaming" and now, "skinny shaming" left and right – wherever we turn. So, when should we be happy with the body we have? Once we are happy, do we stop trying to make it better?
This is a guest post from Tiffany.
The truth of the matter is, you have to be happy in the skin you are in at the moment to make any improvements in the future. As most of you know, I had a baby 10.5 months ago and my auto-immune disease has spiraled out of control since then. I'm in a good place as far as my body goes (at least I think so), but I'm not that super teeny size I used to be. Guess what – I don't care! I'm happy with the effort that I have been putting in, the way I have been eating. and can honestly say that I am getting stronger each day – physically and mentally. I fit in most of my clothes (with the exception of those super tiny ones) and I have found the balance that I need to ensure I am taking care of my family while also taking care of myself.
(I was that person… I used to laugh at the people that said I didn't understand what it was like to have a kid, when I didn't have one, but now I understand! Especially at this age, there is very little time to yourself and it's a triumph if you actually cook something to eat and GET to eat it!)
So… does that mean that I won't work hard to get myself to the next level? Absolutely not! Life is a constant state of change and why not change for the better? I am a real woman, a real mother, a real wife and a real member of society. My life has to reflect that. Your life should reflect the person you are and the person you want to be – not reflect what you do or don't see in the mirror. That will come.
Understand that YOU are constantly evolving. Love the process. Love each and every step.

Back in 2005, LCD Soundsystem released 45:33, a 45-minute, 33-second-long, continuous piece of endlessly mutating space-disco. Nike commissioned the album-length track for a utilitarian purpose: it was supposed to soundtrack a jog. Since then, Nike has commissioned similar running mixes from folks like De La Soul and A-Trak, but no one has, thus far, been able to approach 45:33's dizzy heights.
When I interviewed LCD frontman James Murphy a few years back, he had this to say about the piece: "A company like [Nike] is pretty brand-heavy, and I thought maybe it wouldn't fit in with that. But they totally put it out, and I'm very, very proud of it. It's one of my favorite things I've ever made. I'm as proud or more proud of it than anything I've ever made."
Since 2005, 45:33 has taken on a life of its own, not least because Murphy turned part of it into the backing track for the Sound of Silver highlight "Someone Great". Originally an iTunes exclusive, DFA released 45:33 on CD and vinyl in 2007.
On September 14, the same label, in conjunction with Parlophone, will release a full album's worth of 45:33 remixes called, appropriately enough, 45:33 Remixes. Dance music titans like Prins Thomas and Pilooski will contribute. Before the release date, DFA will release the individual remixes as a series of 12" singles. Tracklist below.
Meanwhile, LCD Soundsystem are currently working on their third official full-length, which can't come soon enough.
45:33 Remixes:
01 Runaway Remix
02 Prince Language Remix
03 Prins Thomas Diskomiks Remix
04 Theo Parrish's Space Cadet Remix
05 Trus' Me Remix
06 Padded Cell Remix
07 Pilooski Remix
08 Riley Reinhold Remix

Students simulate the process a surveyor would use to measure the width of a river by measuring length on one side of the river and angles formed by various reference points.
Students use the RIVER data in Cabri™ Jr. to investigate the scenario of a team building a bridge over a river. Students work as a team to find some ideas on ways to measure the width indirectly without crossing the river.
Students will use points to represent stakes, and will draw a triangle between two stakes on one side of the river and a rock on the far side. They should see that the triangle is a not a right triangle, and they will not be able to use the Pythagorean Theorem.
Students move forward to prove the Law of Sines using the LAWSINES data in Cabri Jr.® Students will relate the lengths of the sides of a triangle to its angles.
