An unconventional Monte, and a fine aged cigar. With some 7+ years on these sticks, they've matured into something quite special. Of familiar medium-full bodied strength, yet of a decidedly different profile, this smoke exhibits full on coffee bean and sweet leather notes all the way through. A musty, spicy quality emerges gradually as the cigar progresses, forming the backbone of the profile heading into the finish. Am getting on really with these, and there's plenty of potential still. Fantastic straight out the box. ~

President John Mahama is wondering whether New Patriotic Party (NPP) presidential candidate Nana Akufo-Addo has advisors.
Mahama's comment stems from the fact that the NPP flagbearer is going round promising to offer fertilizer subsidies to cocoa farmers if voted into power.
According to Mahama, government is currently offering such inputs to cocoa farmers free of charge hence Nana's promise is needless.
Speaking at a durbar at Apagya in the New Edubiase constituency of the Ashanti region, President Mahama said government has deliberately introduced policies and schemes aimed at encouraging cocoa famers to increase their productivity. "Four years ago, we made it a priority to roll out policies to make cocoa farming very profitable to encourage more farmers in order to increase production.
"Thus, we started giving out inputs such as fertilizers to the farmer free of charge. I know for a fact that cocoa farmers here in New Edubiase have also benefited from these inputs such as fertilizers."
He added: "I was listening to someone (Nana Addo) days back and he was promising to subsidize fertilizer if voted for to become President. Then I asked, so doesn't this man have advisors to inform him fertilizers are already been given out free of charge to cocoa farmers?"
"We used to subsidize fertilizers for cocoa farmers, but since John Mahama became President, they are given out free of charge. This means he (Nana Addo) doesn't even know what is happening in the cocoa sector.
"He is now promising to subsidize fertilizers for cocoa farmers, something we are already giving out for free. So is he going to now make the farmers pay?"
Mahama is on a four-day tour of the Ashanti region ahead of the December polls.

Mumbai cop's son can finally study indoors again
Day after mid-day report about BMC razing three shanties in Andheri, forcing policeman's son to study for exams amid ruins of his home, civic body gave the three families keys of new flats
A day after mid-day's report about the BMC razing three shanties in Andheri (East), forcing a policeman's son to study for his Master's exams amid the ruins of his home, the civic body gave the three families possession letters and keys of flats in Andheri (West) yesterday.
Vidyadhar Jadhav and his wife with the key (circled) and possession letter of their new flat
While the cop said he was grateful to mid-day for helping him and the other families get the flats, he said he would be filing a case against cops from the Andheri police station and the BMC for the way they carried out the demolition.
mid-day's report on Monday
mid-day had reported on Monday how the BMC had razed three shanties in Manjrekar Wadi on N S Phadke Road (near Bisleri Junction) in Andheri (East) on November 29, forcing the families of Sahar police station's Head Constable Vidyadhar Jadhav, his brother Santosh and one Anil Parab to live on the road since then.
The BMC had taken the action, meant to help widen the road, despite the matter being in court and without allotting other flats to the affected families. Jadhav's son, Vikas, whose Master of Computer Appli-cation exams are on, has been studying under streetlights since then, trying to cope both with the loss of his house and the dozens of mosquitoes around him. After the family moves into the new flat, he can finally study indoors again.
BMC officials called Jadhav and members of the other families yesterday and gave them possession letters and keys to three flats in Andheri (West) that they had been shown, and had liked, earlier. Jadhav said the officers, who had taken his home away and been rude to him so far, also asked if he needed help in shifting and cleaning the house.
Jadhav, however, refused saying he would do all that after the court hearing, which is slated for today (Wednesday) "I am very happy and satisfied with the flat and thankful to mid-day for helping me get it. I will attend the court hearing on Wednesday and then proceed to my new house, where my family and I will conduct a Ganesh pooja," said Jadhav.
The head constable, however, added that he was still seething from the way the BMC and Andheri police officials had acted and at the injustice meted out to him and his family. "Everything could have been done properly. The BMC could have allotted us the flats earlier, waited for the court hearing and demolished the shanties after we got a chance to remove our belongings.
My family and I have suffered enormous mental pressure and torture. Only we know how we stayed on the road for so many nights," Jadhav said. "I will be filing a case against the BMC and the cops who did this to me. I'm still surprised that the police officers did not help me even though I've been a policeman for 25 years," he added.

As the season changes, everything gets in tune with the new season. Clothing, mood and one can probably say, everything changes with the season. By everything, this includes your skin care routine too. When the winter season hits, your skin starts drying out faster because of the drop in temperature and indoor heating.
Having to wear dry skin is uncomfortable. It is itchy and sometimes flaking. There are some people that experience extremely dry skin and inflammation happens. This can point to a skin condition called eczema. So come winter how can you avoid getting dry skin? Here are some tips.
Preventing Dry Skin in Winter
- Arm your skin with a potent moisturiser!
It may be time to go out and shop for a new moisturiser. Sure the lotions and creams that you lather on your skin for the summer season, do wonders to your skin but come winter time, they might not be able to keep your skin well-hydrated anymore. The best moisturiser to use is one that is hydrating and if possible oil-based.
- Recommended Moisturiser
The Moroccan Argan oil is an excellent choice in moisturisers. It comes with Vitamin E, essential fatty acids and Sterols which all have potent moisturising properties. Sterols itself have the ability to lock in moisture in the skin as it provides a thin coat of layer on the skin's surface therefore preventing water in the skin from evaporating. Because of the nutrients in the oil, it can keep the skin hydrated no matter what the season may be. The plant sterols in the oil allow it to get absorbed easily in the skin as plant sterols and human sterols have striking similarities. This just means that the oil will not clog the pores so it's safe to use even on your face.
- Amp your moisturising habits!
You may need to moisturise more than twice a day come winter time. Because of your exposure to very cold temperatures outside and then coming indoors with indoor heating right after, your skin will easily dry out. The best thing to do is bring a small bottle of moisturiser in your purse so you can rehydrate your skin anytime you need to. Moisturise your hands after being in contact with water and right after stepping out of the shower. Before going to bed, give your skin some good moisturising loving.
- Drink enough fluids.
Your moisturiser alone is not enough to ensure that your skin is well-hydrated. You also need to keep your body well-hydrated. A well-hydrated body will lead to a well-moisturised skin. Drink at least 8 glasses of water every day. Instead of drinking soda and other sweetened drinks, drink tea. Tea is loaded with antioxidants which would help protect the skin from the damaging effects of free radicals. Soups would also help keep your body hydrated.
- Load up on fruits and vegetables
Numerous fruits and vegetables have high water content which would help keep your body including the skin well-hydrated. Pumpkins, watermelons, grapes and strawberries are great for your skin!
Share these tips to your family, friends and loved ones so come winter time they won't have to suffer from dry skin!

ANKARA, May 27 (Reuters) – The European Union and Turkey held constructive talks on the conditions for granting visa-free travel for Turks, and EU experts will visit Ankara next week to work on removing the last obstacles, the European Commission's vice-president said on Friday.
Frans Timmermans said on Twitter after talks with Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu and EU Affairs Minister Omer Celik that they shared a "joint determination to overcome last remaining obstacles to visa liberalisation".
Brussels has promised Turks visa-free travel into Europe in return for stopping the flow of illegal migrants to the bloc, after more than a million entered the EU from Turkey last year. While Europe is desperate for the deal to work, it also insists Ankara meet 72 criteria, including narrowing the scope of its broad anti-terrorism laws to meet European standards.
Rights groups and some European officials say Turkey uses the laws to stifle dissent, prosecuting academics and journalists for expressing peaceful opinions, while President Tayyip Erdogan says Turkey needs its legislation to fight Kurdish insurgents and Islamic State.
The disagreement has threatened the future of the migrant deal and put pressure on Ankara's relationship with the bloc. Erdogan, who spearheaded Turkey's drive for EU candidacy, has threatened it could go its own way if Europe failed to agree.
Turkish foreign ministry officials confirmed that officials from Ankara would meet with their European counterparts next week to determine a roadmap on visa liberalisation.
Wrangling over the anti-terrorism law has cast doubt on whether the end-June target date for the visa deal can still be met. Officials and diplomats told Reuters the deadline looked likely to be missed, and German Chancellor Angela Merkel said after talks with Erdogan this week that it may take longer but she was confident both sides would stick to the migrant pact.
Other sticking points remain, including over a data protection law and the creation of an independent data protection authority.
Keeping the migration accord on track is a key priority for several EU member states, especially the bloc's biggest power, Germany, which took in most of the 1.3 million refugees and migrants who reached Europe last year.

Right. So I've gone and done the whole Magic Monkey thing of journeying to the West. What do I do next? I look for a place to stay of course! Months prior to coming here, HRH and I had already begun surveying the rental market. We knew that we'd be paying an arm and a leg, competing with students of nearby University of Western Australia for a place to stay near enough to HRH's new workplace. We'd set ourselves a budget, bearing in mind we'd need money for food, furniture and to service our existing mortgages because last I checked, I didn't have a spare organ to sell.
But browsing the for-rent pages of Perth over the internet is very different to actually being here in person yourself. For one, some, not all, real estate agents will get back to you on your voice-message enquiry about listed properties. Don't even think about emailing them because as I've discovered, email is so last century; no one checks their email anymore. Or if they do, no one responds. You have to be here in Perth, in person, to hound them!
But don't hound them too much. That's what I did when I applied for my first property here: I called every hour on the hour because I was DESPERATE to have a lease in order to enrol Amanda into school. I don't know about elsewhere but schools in Perth's affluent Western Suburbs only take children in their predetermined Local Intake Area (LIA). So if your place falls outside the boundaries of the LIA, they might take your child on a case-by-case basis but be warned: if enrolments go above the school's desired number of students, your child will be asked to leave!
When HRH was told this, he said, "That's fine. If we ever move out of the area, we'd be going back to Brisbane anyway."
After we failed to get the first property we applied for – a 6 year old minimalist shoebox zoned to a school where my child might get put into a class with students a grade down from her, a split class, as the school has inadequate students for that year to form another class – I decided to go for a much older property in another Western Suburb. I figured mother's maxim of "old man's honey and young man's slave" must also apply to real estate so I applied for a property that looked like a dog's breakfast in photos. Frankly, it was my third, if not fourth choice.
However, I'm pleased to tell you it was the right choice because for a start, my realtor is approachable and easy-going, instead of one of those manicured, stilettoed and power-suit wearing people who get pissed off just because you haven't given them a full 24 hours to check with the owner of the property – as though you need a full 24 hours when presented with applicants as good as us: mature, employed, non- smoking, home-owners. This other area I've ended up renting in also has significantly more amenities than the first one so the rejection turned out be a blessing in disguise.
We spent the first 3 days of moving into our new home for the year, getting a DIY degree from IKEA, putting together our sofa, table and 5 dining chairs. I called Telstra on the fourth day to connect our home phone and broadband since we still have an account with them. They gave me a 3-week waiting period for the home phone and a 4-week waiting period for the broadband. When HRH called to ask them if they can speed up either, Telstra said they can't, not even by a couple of days.
So it's back to the middle ages for us, with no home phone, no broadband (I'm using the facilities of a cyber cafe), no fridge, no washing machine, no TV…The upside of this is that Amanda's been doing 6 to 7 pages of the Naplan workbook we bought her for her birthday, daily, instead of dumbing down herself with television like she used to after school in Brisbane. I've been reading pages from the Weekend Australian to her, stories meant for a learned audience, about change in the world, coming Australian state and general elections, the odd recipe about vine-ripened tomatoes. We've been bonding – the only way a parent and child can – through old-fashioned conversation. I'd say the whole experience of going without technology, due to circumstance in our new home of Perth, has been good, but for having to save 16 $1 coins for the Laundrobar across the street.That gets partially fixed today with the delivery of our new fridge and washing machine from www.appliancesonline.com.au after lunch today. Which reminds me, I really must be home to open the door for the delivery man. Until next time…

While going through and versioning old projects I had to import a fairly large project (6-7 subfolders, hundreds of files). Never mind that they weren't under version control, they were on a windows machine, and I work via SMB mounts.
Not that I would expect many people to get hung up on this. Editing windows files on a mac apple will sometimes generate a '._text.txt' for a modified 'text.txt' file (apple double files).
This shows as an invisible file on the SMB mount. Since I did a straight import, all '._*' files were included in the repository. However '_.' is an illegal file name for a windows machine. So when I tried to
svn co or
svn up I got the following error on other windows machines.
svn: In directory 'sesame/Images' svn: Can't open file 'sesame/images/.svn/tmp/text-base/._sesame_50.jpg.svn-base': No such file or directory
Notice the error mentions a file with a '._' prefix. On a windows box I discovered '._' is not part of a valid file name. After removing all of the '._' files from the repository everything works great. Moral of the story: use
global-ignores to skip over '._*' files.

I have couple of friends with new babies and since I nursed my now 4.5 year old until she was 2, I get many questions about nursing.
Well, luckily I write and so I had my old notes and articles from 3 years ago, which I decided to post here, and hopefully their may be useful is some way to other new moms as well as to my friends 🙂
My daughter gave up her pacifier before she was 1, on her own. At one time, desperate to get her to sleep through the night without nursing, I tried to give her the pacifier, but she absolutely refused. Also around 1 she gave up a bottle and only used sippy cups.
She never developed any attachments to an object. I read somewhere that if you wean a baby too early, they find a substitute in a form of some sort of an object such as toy, blanket, bottle, pacifier etc. Apparently they miss human connection, closeness that nursing provides and that "thing", that object that they choose is an attempt to replace what they are missing. So they develop an attachment to an object. It sounded sad to me, so I was happy to notice that there was in fact a difference between my oldest and my youngest. While my oldest daughter nursed only until she was 10 month, she did get desperately attached to a toy fish (that we still, 14 years later, have), yet my youngest, had no preference for any "thing" whatsoever.
Here is what Dr. Sears has to say about extended breastfeeding:
Science is on your side. I have read many medical journals with articles proving the long-term health benefits of breastfeeding. The incidence of many illnesses, both childhood and adult, are lowered by breastfeeding — diabetes, heart disease, and central nervous system degenerative disorders (such as multiple sclerosis) to name a few. The most fascinating studies show that the longer and more frequently a mom nurses her baby, the smarter her child is likely to become. The brain grows more during the first two years of life than any other time, nearly tripling in size from birth to two years of age. It's clearly a crucial time for brain development, and the intellectual advantage breastfed babies enjoy is attributed to the "smart fats" unique to mom's breast milk (namely, omega-3 fatty acid, also known as DHA). From head to toe, babies who breastfeed for extended periods of time are healthier overall. They tend to have leaner bodies with less risk of obesity. They also have improved vision, since the eye is similar to the brain in regards to nervous tissue. They have better hearing due to a lower incidence of ear infections. Their dental health is generally good, since the natural sucking action of the breastfed infant helps incoming teeth align properly. Intestinal health is also much better than those of non-breastfed babies, as breast milk is easier to digest, reducing spit-up, reflux, and constipation. A toddler's immune system functions much better since breastmilk contains an immunoglobulin (IGA) which coats the lining of the intestines, which helps prevent germs from penetrating through. Even the skin of these babies is smoother and more supple.
I tried to avoid nursing outside of the house. I would breastfeed the little one at home before and after she slept/napped, as well as at night. When she took two naps, she'd nurse at waking up in the morning, then before and after each nap, then before bed and 2-3 times at night. We have gone through few months when she'd wake up every 2-2.5 hours to nurse. … but about that in another post.
Good luck, enjoy and take care of yourself, because you are your baby's source of everything, great nutrients, loving motherly energy – in those moments of nursing you two are one again, just like when the baby was in your belly – feel the connection, cherish it.
To your health,

Making the Dean's List is an astute goal for college students. Only the top percentage of students (based on academic performance) make the cut, and an even smaller proportion of those stay on the list throughout their education.
The requirements for making the Dean's List varies depending on the institution you attend, but it typically requires students to keep a high grade point average. Here are a few tools to get (and keep) your name on the Dean's List at your school.
Organization could save the world
Organization may seem like a tedious concept to adopt, but it will make a difference. Admittedly, organization probably cannot save the world, but it will save your education.
College can be an overwhelmingly busy time in your life, and it can get pretty hard to keep all your due dates and obligations in order. Get a planner, and use it.
Be ridiculously organized. The act of organizing your notes and things will help you to build a more significant connection to the material.
Take advantage of every moment
The hustle and bustle of college life leaves little time for chill. To make a more efficient use of every moment, drag your textbooks along. When you have some downtime, read and study.
The doctor's office makes you wait, so study. When you can obtain audiobooks, it is even more convenient to bring your studies along for the ride.
Do not hesitate to ask questions
In life and in college, it pays to ask questions. The old saying still stands true, "No question is a stupid question." Probing your professor for more information will not only help you gain a more thorough grasp on the material, it will get you participation points with the teacher.
Professors award students that actively engage themselves in learning. Typically, participation is even a part of your overall grade.
Learn how you learn best
Everyone has their own style of learning. Some of us learn best by hearing the material. Some people are visual learners, and some of us need to physically interact with something to get the point.
Whatever the case may be, you should learn your learning style. There are plenty of different quizzes online to test your way of learning. Take advantage of those free tools, and use the information they provide to your advantage when you study.
Show up to every class session
Attendance is crucial. If you are not in class, you will miss something. That is a certainty. Also, some professors award perfect attendance with a pass on the final exam.
They hold the belief that if you participate in every single meeting, then you most likely learned the material to the highest degree. Capitalize on the attendance perks. You will not be sorry.

Yea. I have a poetic side of me.
The other day we had a short conversation and it went something like this.
"So Barbrathepoet, how did you start poetry?"
"Oh I cannot tell, I just think that somehow, for some people, it comes naturally."
"Really? How?"
"Umm….I don't know by the way. All I do is unleash from the cauldron of my mind and voila! Stuff come out!"
"Sounds exciting!"
"I'm not too sure. I cannot judge myself. I think I'm amazing yes, but its the readers who can say more, no?"
"You're absolutely right. Lets see what they think."
"And they better not be saying those words."
"Which words?"
"Those words. You know, 'Me I…'. Its soo Kenyan!"
"Yea I know!"
"Okay, we better stop."
Oh… what a talk!
You be the judge. Here lies my poetry. At Wamathai.com. Great website with great stuff. Have a looksie!

If you want to make your wedding day truly personal, and keep that vintage feel, think about making your centre-pieces scent-sational by adding your own, handmade candle – complete with your own signature scent featuring all the smells you and your beau love!
I made a vintage tea cup soya candle (pictured above) at The Make Lounge in Islington, London. For a paltry £29 I got to learn not only how to make scented soya candles at home but also how and which essential oils blend well together to create my perfect scent. And they let me choose a vintage tea cup and saucer to my liking, especially for my candle.
The helpful handouts provided on the day – and also by email – mean that I can start making more candles at home.
It's really quick and fairly cheap to make your own scented candles at home so if you're on a tight budget for your big day but still want a personal touch, this is definitely worth exploring.
If you're worried about having a fragrance which may be too overpowering, you can colour your candles instead and leave out the fragranced oils, to still add a personal impact to your centre-pieces or table decorations. Otherwise, opt for delicate scents to blend into a subtle but heavenly perfumed candle.
Alternatively, why not give out mini versions of your handmade scented candles as wedding favours instead? Make them reminders of your day by incorporating scents that feature in your overall wedding theme… Like the fragrance of the main flower in your wedding bouquet or button holes; the flavours of your wedding cake, like vanilla, lemon or chocolate; or you could even opt for reflecting your location so if you're having a spring wedding, you can add the smell of freshly cut grass!
You only need a few drops of fragranced oils per candle & synthetic oils are stronger and cheaper than many essential oils so buying and mixing a batch for your wedding need not be costly.
I've already seen some beautiful vintage cups and saucers in my local charity shops, all priced fairly cheaply (you can even pick up a full tea set with 6 – 8 cups, sugar bowl & tea pot for under £20!). If tea cups aren't your thing, go for vintage glass bowls or mini vases – anything as long as it's heat proof!
In case you're wondering, my scented candle contains a blend of vanilla, geranium and grapefruit oils. I won't reveal the exact amounts – hey, it's my signature scent after all – but needless to say it smells heavenly, and reflects me in every way 😉

Theocracy in Democracy
by Alan Allegra
12/06/2011 / Politics
Recently, a pastor publicly inferred that Christianity should be a qualification for the presidency. Last spring, a Christian radio station publicized a rapture that never came. Churches protest military funerals, pastors preach, "God d*** America," and ministers burn religious books. We don't riot in the streets and behead our enemies, but sometimes, we should just keep our mouths shut.
There is fervent debate over the place of religion in politics. Truth is, everyone's religious beliefs color his life. What you believe (or don't believe) about a god or gods dictates your worldview. It is impossible to separate religion from any aspect of life, including politics.
In America's self-professed tolerant society, it seems Christianity is the least-tolerated religion. I wonder if it isn't because we parade our erroneous understanding of our teachings before the world instead of "rightly dividing the word of truth" (2 Timothy 2:15). So many churches are conforming to the world, combating the world, and cuddling up to the world, that we turn off the world instead of testifying to the world.
One great error of church teaching today is that we are called to transform individuals, society, and the world. Some denominations teach that we will usher in a perfect world by social and political action, disguised as gospel action. Others believe we should withdraw from the world and let it go to hell. Both extremes miss the mark.
The bible teaches that man has chosen to rebel against his Creator, plunging the world into the curse of sin (Romans 8:20). One need only study history, science, and sociology, to see this truthand the world is not becoming a more idyllic place. Government overstepped its God-given role to protect its citizens and has become an obstacle to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. It, too, suffers the consequences of sin.
Solely believing in God does not qualify anyone for public office, no more than any religion, non-religion or ethnicity makes any candidate perfect. King David of Israel was a man after God's own heart, yet he didn't fare well with Bathsheba, bringing disgrace to his family and trouble to the nation (2 Samuel 12).
Is there a solution to the nation's problems? Are we doomed to circle the drain of destruction, drowning in our own defilement? The answer Christians should proclaim is, "No!" That answer involves Christians in politics, but not just contemporary politics.
We are not called to change the world; we are called to warn and prepare people for the world to come. "The world is passing away, and also its lusts; but the one who does the will of God lives forever" (1 John 2:17). Jesus proclaims, "My kingdom is not of this world" (John 18:36). John, beholding the future, says, "Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away" (Revelation 21:1).
We are called to show compassion, bless our fellow travelers, and give until it hurts. We are not called to rule this world, condemn it, or make it better. We are called to call people to Christ for forgiveness of sins and citizenship in the coming kingdom, where "God shall wipe away all tears and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away" (Revelation 21:4). We make disciples of all nations, not just Americans or Republicans.
Should we refuse our responsibilities and rights as US citizens? No (Romans 13). Nor should we disregard our duties as citizens of heaven (Philippians 3:20), for which we are ambassadors (2 Corinthians 5:20).
Christians, we can get involved in politics, but remember: God is the Eternal Frontrunner!

If you want to participate in Halloween, then you are supposed to wear a good costume. The selection of the costume is all about your thoughts and your personality. For kids, especially girls, they usually like a fancy costume, no matter what kind of event you are hosting. The fancy costumes are available all over the world. Even people that spend their days lifting concrete will partake in the festivities of Halloween. And if they are a father or mother, they will undoubtedly dress their kids up to participate as well. Not only in the traditional market, but the online market is also full of fancy costumes and dresses for the children. Giving a custom costume to your children is the better way by which you can reward your children and make them happy. For the children, these costumes are the symbol of emotional and social happiness. The value of the fancy dress costumes for the children is as under:
- These costumes are always fun and exciting to wear. It shows the simple way by which you can change your girl to a fair doll or any other character.
- Costumes can be a source of entertainment for the children for more than 3 to 4 hours, especially when the children are playing by their own.
- Buying the best costume for your children strengthen your relationship. It is also a best way by which you can make your kid confident. For an example, if you have a shy kid, then you can encourage him to speak or act confidently behind the costume. By doing so, you will be encouraging your kid to be brave and confident.
- Costumes help the children to forgot about their own personality and they tend to act like what costume they are wearing like if a girl is wearing costume of Cinderella, then she will act like shy doll. So the children start featuring them as the costume character.
- If many children wear related costumes or make a theme then you can also make a play while wearing costumes. In some cases, some children love to have their birthday parties with a special theme. For this, all the children have to wear special, but similar costumes.
Costumes show the creativity of the person wearing it. For an example, if you have an artistic personality then it will be the best way to express your ideas and emotions too.

The Surface Pro has proven to be a tough act to follow. Microsoft has been the two-in-one standard bearer for the past several years, as successive generations of Surface Pro became the default idea of what a Windows tablet/laptop hybrid should be. But it's also been a hard idea to move away from, and the changes in the last few versions of the Surface Pro have been almost imperceptible, in both design and performance.
As if to remind us that this is indeed a new model, Microsoft has ditched the last couple of years of just calling this device Surface Pro and gone back to numbered versions, naming this the Surface Pro 6 ($1,199 at Amazon) (I had honestly lost count by this point).
That's a good thing, because at least from the outside, it would appear that not much else at all has changed about the Surface Pro aside from its low-key new matte black color option. The Surface Pro 6 still has a screen bezel that's on this thick side, unlike many modern laptops, tablets and hybrids that are shaving screen borders down. It still sits awkwardly on the knee (or lap), and it still includes only minimal ports, without even the increasingly popular USB-C.
Still the best little touches
At the same time, it also still has the best-engineered kickstand I've found in a tablet, capable of nearly (but not quite) 180 degrees of stable articulation. It still has a 3:2 aspect ratio on its 12.3-inch high-res display, which is great for reading and working on documents, thanks to more vertical headroom than the average laptop.
It also still supports the best clip-on keyboard in the (short) history of clip-on Windows tablet keyboards. But yes, before you ask, the keyboard still doesn't come included in the box, and it's still a major extra expense. The Pro covers are $159 for the blue, gray or burgundy versions, but fortunately only $129 (£124/AU$199) for the black version that matches the new black color option.
The stylus, which Microsoft calls the Surface Pen, is unchanged, although also available in black, and it's among the best drawing and sketching tools for PC users outside of a full pro-level Wacom setup (and maybe even better in some cases). That's an extra $99/£99/AU$139, but it'll work on any product in the Surface line.
Surface Pro 6 configurations run from $899 to $2,299, depending on RAM, storage and processor options. Starting prices are £879 in the UK and AU$1,349 in Australia. But even the most expensive one arrives with only a naked slate in the box, no keyboard or pen (despite the fact that almost all of the marketing around Surface Pro involves seeing it matched with the keyboard and often the $99 add-on stylus). Likewise, the new black color is only available on a step-up $1,199 configuration with 256GB of internal storage (£1,149 or AU$1,849). That's an extra $300 for an additional 128GB of SSD space, which feels steep.

CEO Comments
"Group sales in the quarter increased 8% year-over-year and 32% sequentially mainly driven by a strong development in mobile broadband" says Hans Vestberg, President and CEO of Ericsson (NASDAQ:ERIC). "Sales in the quarter for comparable units, adjusted for currency and hedging, increased 7% year-over-year. Adjusted cash flow in the quarter was strong at SEK 16.2 (13.6) b. and SEK 29.8 (28.7) b. for the full year.
Sales growth returned during the second half of the year and cash conversion for the full year amounted to 112%. Net income 2010 increased 172% to SEK 11.2 (4.1) b. mainly due to improvements in earnings in Sony Ericsson and less restructuring charges. The Board of Directors proposes a dividend for 2010 of SEK 2.25 (2.00).
Sales in Networks increased 14% year-over-year and 40% sequentially, primarily driven by increased demand for mobile broadband and investments in 2G expansions in China. While the supply of components has normalized during the quarter, we are still not fully meeting the increased demand on certain mobile broadband products.
Global Services sales decreased -1% year-over-year and increased 20% sequentially. The year-over-year decline is a result of lower levels of network rollout following the industry wide component shortage earlier in the year as well as a negative impact from a strong SEK. Managed services grew 5% year-over-year and with 16 contracts signed in the quarter, the positive business momentum remains unchanged. Multimedia sales recovered and grew 3% year-over-year and 50% sequentially with positive development within revenue management.
2010 marks the first year of 4G/LTE and we have established a clear lead in this area. Our strategy to strengthen our position in key markets such as the US and Korea as well as increased footprint in the ongoing network modernization has also been successful during the year. Although network modernization projects, along with the 3G rollouts in India, puts initial pressure on gross margin these projects are important parts of our efforts to strengthen our platform for continued long-term growth and profitability.
In 2010, mobile broadband subscriptions increased 30% to approximately 500 million, still only representing some 10% of total mobile subscriptions. We expect the strong uptake for mobile broadband to continue in 2011, with number of mobile broadband subscriptions expected to double and hit one billion already this year. This will be driven by more smartphone devices, including entry level smartphones as well as tablets. Mobile data traffic is forecasted to almost double annually over the coming years. We are well positioned to support our customers in meeting the changing consumer behavior," concludes Hans Vestberg.

In continuing my review of the Iñárritu/Arriaga trilogy, I come to Amores Perros. I watched 21 Grams first, so I was coming into this movie expecting much of the same. In some respect, Amores Perros is very much like 21 Grams; however, there are important differences. This movie, unlike its soon-to-be-sequel, doesn't spare any punches. It is a graphic, brutal, and downright realistic look at Mexico City from the perspective of three troubled individuals. Unlike 21 Grams, however, the characters in this movie are very separated; they are a lot less connected. In fact, the only time they are really connected is in the one car accident that represents the convergence of the stories. The idea is that this one event affects the lives of all three main characters, some more directly than others. The idea certainly does work.
Amores Perros is in Spanish, so you will be reading subtitles. The cast is all-Spanish, as well, so there are no notables to mention. The actors do, however, perform quite well. Everyone is believable in their role, and they convey the emotions necessary to make one connect with the stories. The entire movie is very raw, and the performances make it work. It is also important to note that, despite a few flashbacks, the movie is told in chronological order, unlike 21 Grams. The first story is about Octavio, a man who is in love with his brother's wife. Octavio uses his dog's ability to fight in underworld dogfights to raise enough money for he and his sister-in-law to skip town; however, he gets caught up with the wrong crowd and after the car accident everything turns bad. The second is about Valeria, a beautiful model who recently moved in with a magazine editor that left his wife and kids to be with her. Their happy story gets ugly quick as Valeria hurts her leg — this ends her modelling career, and complicates her obviously shallow relationship. The final story is about El Chivo, an ex-terrorist who is now a hitman and also a dog-lover. He gets involved in the affairs of others, but eventually learns that he wants to get to know his daughter that hasn't known him since he went to prison for his terrorist past. Many critics dislike the second story, but I felt it was just as good as the rest; I would even put it above El Chivo's. Octavio's, however, is the clear winner in terms of emotion and story; it is just the most moving.
The aforementioned dogfights are particularly brutal and may deter some viewers. Also, the stories are a lot less connected than I was hoping (considering 21 Grams' characters are tightly interwoven). The movie is also quite long, clocking in at more than 2.5 hours. The story rarely lags, but the pacing is a bit off. One can't help but realize that Octavio's story is a lot more fast-paced. Beyond that, Octavio's story is overall better than the rest by a large margin. When watching the movie, Octavio's story almost sets the bar too high, setting up the following stories to fail. They do not fail, however, but they are relatively weak compared with that first story. Still, Amores Perros represents a wild look at Mexico City's diverse characters and portrays a powerful set of emotions. Just like 21 Grams, this will have you thinking for many nights afterwards. If you can get past the brutal dogfights, there is really no reason not to give this a chance. It is a staple for Spanish movies in America and truly represents something powerful.

And also for Doctor.
Daisy is an only child; an oddity at a time when large families were the norm. She's a bright and imaginative girl, taking after her grandmother Amy in many ways, and cherished by her extended family.
Daisy's War looks at the experience of family members left to manage the farms during World War I, with so many of the men away. In the next book (still a work-in-progress), the family faces the challenge of the 1918 Influenza Pandemic, which in a two month period killed almost half as many New Zealanders as the four years of the war had done.
Daisy has dreams even larger than her grandmother's: she wants to be a doctor. In early 20th century New Zealand this is a large ambition, but Daisy is determined.
She's inspired by tales of woman doctors, including that of Margaret Cruickshank, who was New Zealand's first registered woman doctor.
Dr Cruickshank worked in the town of Waimate, in practice with a Dr Barclay. When the epidemic struck Waimate, Dr Barclay was still away on active service, and Margaret was managing the practice on her own. Her driver fell ill, but she continued to travel the district, by horse and gig or by bicycle, doing what she could for the sick. She even milked cows for some of her patients, in households where there was no one else to help.
By the time she caught influenza herself, her strength had been badly depleted. She died on 28 November 1918. The town of Waimate had a marble statue put up in her honour, inscribed with:
The Beloved Physician
Faithful unto Death
|Jock Phillips. 'Memorials and monuments - Civilian memorials, 1900–1945', Te Ara - the Encyclopedia of New Zealand

text: Organic dutched/alkalized cocoa powder is an unsweetened powder produced by the grinding of cocoa beans and fat extraction resulting in cocoa butter. The cocoa is considered to be alkalized or "dutched" due to its production process which balances the PH of the cocoa powder giving it a less acidic and milder flavor. This dutched/alkalized version has a darker, almost reddish color and a mild, yet assertive, taste without overpowering other remaining ingredients. It is a great choice for cooking and baking due to its higher solubility rather than natural cocoa, since most of the fat has been removed. This product is ideal for vegans since there are no genetically modified organisms (NON-GMO), animal by-products or chemicals. The dutched/alkalized organic cocoa provides consumers with energy-boosting nutrients loaded with minerals such as magnesium, calcium and potassium which will make for a great health ingredient.

Breastfeeding in the workplace, in practice, can mean several things.
For some employees who live close to their workplace, breastfeeding may mean going home or going to a nearby nursery to feed their child. Alternatively it may mean a relative or child minder bringing the child to the workplace to be fed. In most cases it is likely to mean the employee will express milk which she will then store in a cool place. The expressed milk will then be used to feed the baby from a bottle. Expressing milk usually requires the use of either an electric or manual pump. The pump and bottles must be sterile in order to avoid contaminating the milk so it's vital that the woman has access to clean, hygienic facilities to express milk.

What's All This About Grace?
- Undeserved
- Impossible to earn
- Outrageously extravagant
We were God's enemies. This is expressed in hostility against him, or presumption that we are fine without him or just indifference towards him. While we are like this, God makes the first and greatest move towards us. In love he sent His Son to be our rescuer. The action taken is one of 'grace'.
Jesus lived the life we should have lived, and died the death we deserved to die. Because of the cross and resurrection of Jesus we can now fully rely on Him to give us forgiveness for our past, His continuing presence for today and a great hope as we face eternity.
Can you see why we called the church 'Grace'?

How To Configure PPPoE Services On MikroTik Router.
PPPoE (Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet) is one of the exceptional services in MikroTik Router. It is often used as an extension of the standard Point to Point Protocol (PPP). The difference between them is expressed when data is being transmitted. PPPoE is Ethernet based, unlike serial modem connection. PPPoE is a client-server protocol that means PPPoE client (IP devices such as Desktop, Laptop, wireless Router etc.) will request for IP information to PPPoE server providing security information (username and password) and PPPoE server will provide IP information by matching that security information.
PPPoE services are very important for extensive user management, network management and accounting benefits to ISPs and network administrators. PPPoE is used mainly by ISPs to control client connections for xDSL and cable modems as well as plain Ethernet networks. PPPoE is now most popularly used in local ISP Company because local ISP user can so easily be maintained with this service. So, this in this tutorial we going to show how to maintain ISP clients by configuring and setting up a PPPoE server in MikroTik Router.
ISP Setup with PPPoE Configuration
As a system administrator of an ISP company, we take into considerations various offered bandwidth packages such as 512kbps connection, 1Mbps connection, 2Mbps connection and so on actually we don't give the 512kbps, this because the end user will end up complaining and even disconnect from the service. In other for us to be on the safe side we always take out time to explain to our ccustomers the various packages and the anticipated number of users.
Now when a bandwidth like this is being offered users of these packages can so easily maintain with MikroTik PPPoE service.
So in this tutorial will take it step bit after another, for better understanding of the setup.
We will take a scenario where a MikroTik router WAN port (ether 1) is connected to internet and LAN port ether 2, where we will setup the PPPoE server will be connected to a distribution switch.
PPPoE end user such like : PC, Laptop, Tablet and Wireless Router, will be connected to the PPPoE server through this distribution switch.
This is the basic of mikrotik PPPoE.
But in this network if you want to use multiple Ethernet ports for your LAN, maybe because your building an enterprise network that will be pretty cool, but you have to create MikroTik Bridge virtual interface for accumulating multiple interfaces into a single interface and then configure PPPoE server in that virtual interface.
You will notice that there are two end setups and configurations for PPPoE service.
1. PPPoE server configuration in MikroTik Router
2. PPPoE client configuration
So for us to fully integrate a PPPoE service in our network, the first configuration we need to do is the PPPoE server in MikroTik router. and then will move to have to configure various PPPoE clients.
Generally here an Internet Service Providing company, we are offering different packages depending on bandwidth like I said. But I think that It is always better and common to maintain client bandwidth with MikroTik Queues service even you want to work like an expert in using PPPoE service. Specially I'll recommend you to use MikroTik PCQ service which I will explained in my coming tutorials about ISP bandwidth management with MikroTik PCQ to maintain your different bandwidth packages. Now we'll use PPPoE server only for assigning different IP Block's IP to different clients according to their bandwidth packages. For example, our proposed IP blocks for different bandwidth packages will be like below.
512kbps client will get 22.214.171.124/24 block IP
1Mbps client will get 220.127.116.11/24 block IP
2Mbps client will get 18.104.22.168/24 block IP
So, now we will configure our PPPoE server like that when a user purchase 512kbps connection, he/she will get a 184.108.40.206/24 block IP with his username and password. Similarly, when a user will purchase 1Mbps connection, he/she will get a 220.127.116.11/24 block IP and a 2Mbps user will get a 220.127.116.11/24 block IP.
we will start the setup by adopting the following steps
basic configuration
IP Pool configuration
PPPoE server configuration
PPP profile configuration
PPP secrets (username and password) configuration
I. Basic Configuration.
Login to your winbox, go to IP > Addresses and then click on add new button (PLUS Sign). New Address window will appear now.
In this window, put your WAN address that you have got from ISP company in Address field and choose ether1 or your WAN interface that like from Interface drop-down menu and then click Apply and OK button. WAN address will be assigned successfully.
Again, click on add new button (PLUS Sign) and put your LAN address (in this article, I am using 18.104.22.168/24) in Address field and then choose your LAN interface from Interface drop-down menu. Now click Apply and OK button. LAN address will be assigned successfully.
Now go to IP > DNS menu. DNS Settings window will appear. In this window, put DNS server address that you have got from ISP Company or you can use Google's public DNS IP (220.127.116.11) in Servers input box. You can put secondary DNS server IP by clicking add new value button located after the Servers input box. Optionally, you can turn your MikroTik router as a DNS server. Turning your MikroTik router as a DNS server is a better idea, I think. Because if you use public DNS server in your network, every DNS request of your user will consume your paid bandwidth. But if you turn MikroTik router as a DNS sever, your user will get DNS solution from MikroTik router without consuming your paid bandwidth. So, if you want to turn MikroTik as a DNS server, click the Allow Remote Requests check box and click Apply and OK button. Your MikroTik router is now a DNS server. All MikroTik IP addresses can now be used as a DNS server IP including WAN IP which is a public IP and problem will arise here. If anyone outside of your LAN uses your WAN IP as a DNS IP, your MikroTik will be happy by serving him/her DNS solution consuming your paid bandwidth. So, for stopping DNS request from outside of your LAN, you should apply a firewall rule that will drop all DNS requests coming from your WAN interface (in this article, ether1). For this, go to IP > Firewall menu and click on add new button (+ Sign). New Firewall Rule window will appear now. Under General tab, choose Chain: input, Protocol: udp, Dst. Port: 53 and In. Interface: ether1.
Now choose Action: drop from Action Tab and click Apply and OK button. Create another similar rule for TCP connection. Click on add new button (+ Sign) again and choose Chain: input, Protocol: tcp, Dst.Port: 53 and In. Interface: ether1 and then choose Action
drop under Action tab and click Apply and OK button. Now your MikroTik DNS server is safe from outside of your LAN.
Go to IP > Routes menu for setting Gateway. From Route list window, click on add new button (PLUS). New Route window will appear now. Put your gateway address that you have got from your ISP in Gateway input field and click Apply and OK button. MikroTik default gateway will be assigned now.
The next we will do it to create NAT rule so that your LAN user can access internet through your router. To do this, go to IP > Firewall menu and click on NAT tab.
Now click on add new button (PLUS Sign). Choose Chain: srcnat and Address: 188.8.131.52/16 under General tab and choose Action: masquerade from Action tab and then click OK button.
II. IP Pool Configuration.
In this setup and configuration, we are creating three IP Pools because we working t three offered packages and our user will get different IP block IP according to their package purchase.
Go to IP > Pool menu and click on add new button (PLUS Sign).
New IP Pool window will appear now. Put Name: 512kbps_Pool and Addresses: 22.214.171.124-126.96.36.199 in New IP Pool window and click Apply and OK button. When a user will purchase a 512kbps connection, they will get an IP from this IP address range. Note that address range excludes the first IP because it will be used as a Gateway address.
Similarly, create another two new IP Pool named as 1Mbps_Pool and 2Mbps_Pool and Address range will be 18.104.22.168-184.108.40.206 and 220.127.116.11-18.104.22.168 accordingly.
III. PPPoE Server Configuration
Now we have done the initial configurations, let us then configure our PPPoE server in MikroTik router which seems to be our first assignment.
Click on PPP menu item from left menu of the mikrotik winbox. PPP window will appear now. Click on red +SIGN and choose PPPoE Server. If you want, you can change your interface name or keep it default. Click on Apply and OK button.
Now click on PPPoE Servers tab and then click + Sign. New PPPoE Service window will appear now. In this window, put your PPPoE server name (techsfair.com server) depending on you.
Now choose your LAN interface where PPPoE server will be created from Interface drop-down menu, probably ether1.
If you create bridge interface, your bridge interface will be available in this list. So, choose bridge interface if you want to create PPPoE server in your bridge interface.
Click on One Session Per Host If you left it blank, multiple host/devices can be connected with the same username and password.
At the bottom of this window, you can see there are 4 authentication methods. Here only select PAP, and unselect all others. Now click Apply and OK.
IV. PPP Profile Configuration
Now we will create three profiles that will be used by our clients for getting IP addresses.
Open PPP window by clicking PPP menu from MikroTik menu bar and then click on Profiles tab.
click on add new button (PLUS Sign). New PPP Profile window will pop up.
In New PPP Profile window, put your profile name as you want in Name For simplicity, I am using 512kbps_Connection. Now put Local Address: 22.214.171.124 and choose 512kbps_Pool from Remote Address drop-down menu.
Note that Local Address is the gateway address of this IP block which not included in 512kbps_Pool. So, when a 512kbps user will connect to this profile, they will get an IP from 512kbps_Pool and his/her gateway will be 188.8.131.52 that means this IP is one of the MikroTik IPs.
At the bottom of this window, put MikroTik IP that you have used for Local Address (for this profile: 18.104.22.168) as DNS Server because we have turned our MikroTik router as a DNS server. Optionally, you can put another DNS server IP that you have got from your ISP or Google's public DNS 126.96.36.199 by clicking add new value button located after DNS Server input box.
Now click Apply and OK button.
Similarly, create another two profiles for 1Mbps connection and 2Mbps connection. In this case, put 184.108.40.206 and 126.96.36.199 as Local Address and choose 1Mbps_Pool and 2Mbps_Pool for Remote Address.
V. PPP Secret Configuration
Now we will create means of authentication which is username and password of a client by which they will be connected to our network.
To do that we will click on PPP window and click on Secrets New PPP Secret window will appear now.
Put the username of any client in the Name input box and put password in Password input box. Note that username and password are necessary when any client will be connecting from their workstation phones, Tablets, PC, Laptop, wireless Router and so on).
The next thing Is for us to choose the type of service Bandwidth we are offering, to do that click on the pppoe from Service drop-down list and choose profile for this user from Profile drop-down list.
If the customer purchased a 512kbps connection, choose 512kbps_Connection profile or choose the option according to the connection type of this user.
So next in our tutorials we will check out how to set up PPPoE on the client side.

The current chaos in our lives includes a pandemic that has put over twenty million people out of work and the seemingly unceasing killing of Black people by police. But last week, we saw glimmers of hope for a better future.
Penn v. New York Methodist Hospital, No. 16-474 (2d Cir., Mar. 7, 2018); EEOC v. R.G. &. G.R. Harris Funeral Homes, No. 16-2424 (6th Cir. Mar. 7, 2018)
This week, two U.S. Courts of Appeals publish decisions about whether religiously-oriented employers were exempt from Title VII owing to alleged religious-liberty rights: a Methodist hospital wins in the Second Circuit, while a funeral home loses in the Sixth Circuit.
Franchina v. Providence Fire Dep't, No. 16-2401 (1st Cir. Jan. 25, 2018)
In the First Circuit, a woman lieutenant successfully defends a Title VII award of $545,000 for front pay and $161,000 for emotional damages. The exhaustive 60-page opinion addresses the admissibility of harassment outside of the workplace, application of the sex-plus theory where the "plus" factor is sexual orientation, and the degree of proof necessary for front-pay relief.
Moving Backwards: Trans Military Service
Co-Written by Outten & Golden LLP Paralegal Toby Rae Irving
In the six months since his inauguration, President Trump and his cabinet have been pushing forward to fulfill his myriad of campaign promises, with mixed success. Two days ago it became evident, however, that his continuity from the campaign ends with his supposed support of the LGBTQ community. Members of the trans community face challenges and lack of legal protection around the primary concerns of most Americans: employment, housing, and healthcare. Instead of addressing these issues central to daily life, President Trump has, once again, rolled the clocks backward on rights for trans people by banning transgender people from serving in the military. The President cited concerns around medical costs and "disruption."

A Hard-Won Victory: Seventh Circuit Finds Civil Rights Act Protects LGBTQ Workers
Those of us in the LGBTQ community will never forget June 26, 2015, the day that the Supreme Court issued its decision in Obergefell v. Hodges, holding that the fundamental right to marry is guaranteed to same-sex couples by the fourteenth Amendment of the United States Constitution. Obergefell represented acceptance of the notion that we and our relationships deserve, as Justice Kennedy stated, "equal dignity in the eyes of the law."
Hively v. Ivy Tech Community College, No. 15-1720 (7th Cir. Apr. 4, 2017) (en banc)
This decision was an instant sensation in the news and social media: Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 held to protect employees from discrimination because of sexual orientation (and, presumably, gender identity as well). Digging into the majority and separate opinions, we can trace different possible outcomes when this question inevitably reaches the U.S. Supreme Court.
Expansions in LGBTQ Employees' Rights and Benefits
Major shifts in gender equality jurisprudence in recent years have led to expanded rights and benefits for LGBTQ employees. The Section devoted two panels at the Section Conference to the rapidly developing areas of anti-discrimination law, employee benefits, and sexual orientation and gender identity in the workplace. The scope of civil rights protections for LGBTQ employees under Title VII generated the most discussion in the wake of the Supreme Court's decision in Obergefell v. Hodges (2015) and the EEOC's decision in Baldwin v. forx (EEOC 2015). In Obergefell, the Court held that the 14th Amendment guarantees all couples, straight or gay, the fundamental right to marry under a due process analysis, although Justice Kennedy noted that the ruling derived in part from the Equal Protection clause.
EEOC Rules Sexual Orientation-Based Discrimination is Sex Discrimination Under Title VII
Last Thursday, the EEOC issued a groundbreaking decision that held, in clear and unequivocal language, that claims of discrimination based on sexual orientation implicitly state a claim of sex discrimination under Title VII. See Complainant v. Foxx, EEOC DOC 0120133080, 2015 WL 4397641, at *10 (July 16, 2015). This decision comes on the heels of the Supreme Court's landmark decision granting same-sex couples the right to marry under the Fourteenth Amendment. Obergefell v. Hodges, 135 S. Ct. 2584, 2608 (2015).

Mercedes' AMG expansion inevitably will involve making its highfalutin' DTM-series hardware more available to the world's motoring rich. Building 100 of the supercars at a clip can't possibly satisfy demand for the DTM cars' particular blend of reckless abandon and German refinement. Thus, the next CLK DTM will reportedly come in higher quantity, with a new, less conspicuous design (no, officer, I was not going 225 mph. You must have me confused with someone else). Horsepower will match the first, limited edition CLK DTM, at around 600, with hints from management of a turbocharger tacked on the 6.3-liter V8 for an extra measure of insanity.
