On September 12, 2019, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs held the 20th promotion event presenting Chinese provinces, autonomous regions, and cities under the theme of "China in the New Era: Innovative Hunan Embracing the World" at the Blue Hall of the Ministry. State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi delivered a speech. Secretary of Hunan Provincial Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Du Jiahao addressed the event, and Governor of the People's Government of Hunan Province Xu Dazhe gave the presentation. More than 500 people including Secretary of the CPC Committee of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Qi Yu, diplomatic envoys in China from over 130 countries, representatives from international organizations in China, delegates from industrial and commercial sectors, Chinese and foreign experts, scholars as well as journalists were present.
Wang Yi said, Hunan has always had a unique position in the magnificent development process of the Chinese nation. It is the cradle of the Chinese revolution and is the home of Comrade Mao Zedong, the main founder of the People's Republic of China, as well as a large number of devoted revolutionaries including three marshals and six generals who fought for the founding of the country. Hunan people have made immortal contributions to the founding of the People's Republic of China and the national liberation. Hunan, an epitome of reform and opening up, implements the strategy of innovation-led opening up and rising, strives to build a new highland for inland to open up and actively responds to the Belt and Road Initiative. All these efforts have enabled Hunan to embrace a new round of important opportunities for opening up. Furthermore, Hunan serves as a model of poverty alleviation. In 2013, General Secretary Xi Jinping put forward the important concept of "targeted poverty alleviation" for the first time in Shibadong village of west Hunan. Poverty alleviation in Hunan has thus entered the fast lane. Academician Yuan Longping has made scientific and technological achievements in cultivating super hybrid rice in Hunan, which has not only benefited the Chinese people, but also made important contributions to global poverty alleviation and sustainable development.
Wang Yi pointed out, under the strong leadership of the CPC, China has accomplished what took developed countries hundreds of years to accomplish within a short span of several decades, creating an unprecedented miracle of development in the world history. China's achievements in the past seventy years have proved that China has chosen the right path. No matter how many difficulties and obstacles are there on our road ahead, the Chinese people will unswervingly follow the road of socialism with Chinese characteristics under the leadership of the CPC. Any external disturbance or containment cannot shake our confidence and courage, let alone block the historical trend of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. China's achievements in the past seventy years have proved that China's development presents the world with opportunities. China has always adhered to peaceful development, mutual benefit and win-win results and committed itself to common development with all countries on the basis of mutual respect, equality and mutual benefit on the international stage.
Wang Yi stressed, at present, the world is undergoing profound changes unseen in a century with various global challenges on the rise. Under such circumstances, no country can stay immune on its own. All countries need more than ever before to strengthen communication and coordination, respect each other's development path, make the pie of mutually beneficial cooperation bigger, jointly safeguard international equity and justice, firmly safeguard multilateralism and continuously promote the democratization of international relations. China stands ready to make positive contributions to this end.
Du Jiahao mainly introduced the innovation and opening up in Hunan. He expressed, Hunan has, according to the instructions of General Secretary Xi Jinping, proposed to implement the strategy of innovation-led opening up and rising and let innovation and opening up drive Hunan's economic and social development. Hunan insists on promoting comprehensive innovation in all fields with scientific and technological innovation as the focus, actively promotes the establishment of an innovative province, and accelerates the construction of a new system of innovative economy. Hunan actively integrates itself into the world and advances higher-quality opening up. Xu Dazhe introduced the historic changes Hunan has realized by tapping its geographical advantages and the achievements in building Hunan into a province strong in economy, science and education, culture, ecology and opening up. People from all walks of life at home and abroad are welcome to compose a concerto of innovation and opening up for a better tomorrow.
Philippine Ambassador to China Jose Santiago Sta. Romana and Ugandan Ambassador to China Crispus Kiyonga delivered speeches respectively. They spoke highly of the great achievements the People's Republic of China has made for the past seventy years since its founding, gave full recognition to the achievements of Hunan's innovative development, introduced the close contact and cooperation between Hunan and their countries and expressed the willingness to continuously deepen exchanges and cooperation with Hunan in agriculture, construction machinery, infrastructure construction, tourism and other fields to share development opportunities.
Prior to the promotion event, the People's Government of Hunan Province held a talkfest for multinationals.

WP changed format of my pictures? – Why??
I just discovered that in some of my posts the size of the pictures has changed without that I did anything. Now it looks quite ugly…
I tried to undo the changes by manuelly checking the settings of the pictures, but they pretend to be in the right size, but nevertheless they don't have the correct size in the blog…
I don't now how long this is like that, but it seems to affect quite a lot of my articles :-(
Anyone an idea?
The blog I need help with is brevlada.wordpress.com.
To give you a meaning what I am talking about:
The picture size is 100% although it should be 90%:
The first picture is far too large, the second one is vertical format instead of horizontal format and it contains just a part of the picture:
I've tagged this thread to have it moved to the themes forum since it looks like staff have done some tweaking and either the images are now presented at the wrong size, or the caption background/border area has been tweaked and made smaller.
Thank you.
What I found out by now is that my own code – i.e. the one that I am editing in my dashboard – is not effected. It looks like this:
[caption id="attachment_1655" align="aligncenter" width="405" caption="Auf solchen Wegen könnte ich stundenlang wandern... Und das beste: es geht bergauf...!"][/caption]
The resulting code however changes the numbers:

Auf solchen Wegen könnte ich stundenlang wandern... Und das beste: es geht bergauf...!

The size of the image has been changed from 405 px width to 450 px width.
It sounds like the same problem that I'm having. I just logged on and noticed that when you go to any of my post that pictures are all huge. I had them down to a size I wanted but now they are all full size for some reason. It must be another bug in the system because this happened before like a couple of months ago.
Here is one of my post as you can see with the size being out of whack it now looks awful.
I am having the same problem. Many of my photos are showing up 100% even though the code says they are sized smaller.
Its weird because I just went to edit and it looks the way it is suppose to there but for whatever reason it comes out huge the way the public sees it.
All fixed. This was the combination of a new feature meant to help show images as wide as they can be (in proper context), especially when switching themes, and a WordPress bug we've had fixed in WP 3.3.
The issue is that your images still had the size-full css class, despite having been resized down via HTML attributes (whether you had typed the values or used the image editing/embedding tools in the editor).
We just had to run a script on your site to get that all fixed up. You can now see your images displayed exactly as you had intended. :)
My page is still broken. Can you fix mine, please? http://jellomoldmistress.com/
awesomebarnhart and victoriabelanger, you're all fixed up now.
Thank you!
I am having the same problem. Photos are showing up much smaller than coded. http://kissmyspatula.com/. Thanks.
Thank you very much for the quick help! Now my blog is just the way it should be again.
(And I got more traffic than usual during the last few hours :-))
Can you please help me? About half of my photos are super large and making everything look funky too.
Have the same problem.
@all: You won't have such problems if you take care to upload images presized to the right dimensions instead of letting WP do the downsizing. For example, the latest image in http://jellomoldmistress.com/ is 4416px wide, resolution 300dpi. Resizing issues and bugs aside, there's no point uploading such huge files when the theme of that blog displays them at 550px maximum and when browsers use resolution 72: you're simply wasting your storage space and increasing the loading time of your pages.
kissmyspatula and afpulp, you're all fixed up now.
helar, what is the URL of the blog you're having trouble with?
@maxmanx It still is not rendering correctly. Can you please help?
Working now. Thank you @maxmanx!
You're welcome!
The topic 'WP changed format of my pictures? – Why??' is closed to new replies.

N.D. California Dismisses VPPA Class Action Against Netflix
On 8/17/12, the North District of California granted Netflix's motion to dismiss a class action alleging that the company violated the Video Privacy Protection Act ("VPPA") and California Civil Code § 1799.3(a) by displaying a list of recently viewed and intended-to-be-viewed videos on users' TV screens while other individuals were also present and able to view the users' screens. (Mollet v. Netflix, Inc., No. 5:11–CV–01629–EJD)
Plaintiffs claimed that some subscribers access Netflix's Internet video streaming service through a "Netflix Ready Device" (such as a video game console, a DVD or Blu-ray player, an Internet-ready TV, or a set-top box), which can then be used to stream Netflix video content to users' TVs. The plaintiffs alleged that once configured, the device allowed anyone who accessed the device or anyone (such as family members in the same home) watching the same screen to which the device was attached to see lists of the subscriber's recently watched video titles, tagged titles for later viewing, and other custom-generated lists of content. The plaintiffs argued that such unrestricted display of each of these lists on a subscriber's TV violated the VPPA and § 1799.3, both of which prohibit video tape/rental service providers from disclosing personally identifiable information ("PII") concerning any consumer to any person other than that consumer. Under the statutes, PII includes information identifying the types of video content or services obtained by an individual.
The court granted the motion to dismiss for two reasons. First, the court agreed with Netflix that the disclosures of video content were made to the subscribers themselves in accordance with the statutes. The court explained that because during the initial set-up of a Netflix Ready Device each plaintiff had to log into his account and affirmatively agree to couple the device with the account, the plaintiffs themselves authorized their devices to access their accounts, and also authorized other members of their households to view their TV screens. The court emphasized a provision in Netflix's privacy policy informing users that they have the responsibility to keep their account information private, and if they share their accounts or devices with other people, they take full responsibility for such actions. If the plaintiffs did not want their video lists to be disclosed to other members of their households, the court noted that they could have restricted access to their devices.
Second, the court agreed with Netflix that any third-party disclosures were not made knowingly under the VPPA or willingly under § 1799.3. Although plaintiffs alleged that Netflix knew that some of its subscribers sometimes accessed their devices in the presence of other people, the court held that it was unable to draw a reasonable inference from the complaint that Netflix knew that people other than the plaintiffs were present when the devices displayed PII on any individual occasion. Instead, the court concluded that those circumstances were necessarily outside of Netflix's control or potential knowledge when it sent information to the devices.

Do you ever think to yourself, "I brush my teeth, I try to remember to floss, nothing hurts, so why do I need to see the dentist?" If you do have that thought, don't worry—you're not alone. However, you really should see the dentist. Oral healthcare is not a do-it-yourself activity. With family dentistry at Carlisle Family and Cosmetic Dentistry in Carlisle, PA, you can be certain that you are properly caring for your and your family's oral health and smiles.
Family Dentistry: Preventing Problems, Maintaining Smiles
As your family dentist, Dr. Thomas Neslund focuses on preventing oral health problems before you even notice any symptoms. That's why we'd like to see you and your family at least twice a year for dental checkups. With regularly scheduled checkups, we can more easily monitor your oral health and be on the lookout for any changes, even the most subtle of changes.
At these checkups, our dental hygienists will clean your teeth, gently remove any visible plaque, examine your gums, and check for tooth decay. Sometimes, dental x-rays may be necessary to pinpoint spots of decay that are invisible to the naked eye. If we do find a cavity, then Dr. Neslund fills it with a tooth-colored composite resin to maintain the natural appearance of your smile.
Family Dentistry for Kids, Too
Starting at around three years old, children should start coming to see Dr. Neslund at Carlisle Family and Cosmetic Dentistry. With an early start, your children will become accustomed to regular dental checkups and will be more likely to continue this good habit. While your children still have their baby teeth, we will examine their teeth and gums, gently clean their teeth and possibly take x-rays. And we may apply a fluoride treatment to protect their teeth from cavities. Once their permanent teeth erupt, we'll apply dental sealants to your children's deeply grooved molars an added layer of protection against cavities.
Schedule an Appointment Today
So, do you need to see the dentist? Then call the office of Carlisle Family and Cosmetic Dentistry in Carlisle, PA. We also serve families from Mechanicsburg, Camp Hill, Boiling Springs, Shippensburg and the surrounding communities.

Cities, Streets & Lights
In this series, I wanted to capture the vibrancy and colour of life in cities. This series was shot over a period of 2 years and with a variety of cameras: from one that was on loan to me when I could not afford one of my own, to my now most treasured film camera. Most of these images were taken in Norwood where I have lived in and around for a decade. Most of the other images are of Johannesburg with a couple from 'out of town' that have a certain charm and meaning and found themselves included: the irony of the boat in Jackpot, Uniondale; the beautiful aspiration of the steeple in Spire – those are urban too but they serve as opposites to the sprawling centres typified by Johannesburg. These are a meditation on place and what meaning we give to the places we find ourselves in. A notable change, one that I am overjoyed to have documented, is that the building in Newtown in Market Cold Storage is now painted a blinding red. How cities affect us, how they change under our radar and how we don't stop to notice anything anymore, these are the things this series tries to highlight. 10 x 15 inches, Limited Editions (as listed below), archival print on Epson Premium Luster paper. Editions: Jackpot, Uniondale - edition of 20 Market Cold Storage, Newtown - edition of 10 Bridge, Newtown - edition of 16 Joburg Skyline & the Corner - edition of 20 Highway #1 - edition of 10 Grant Ave at Dusk - edition of 15 Grant Ave #3_2 - edition of 15 Grant Ave #2 - edition of 15 Grant Ave #1 - edition of 15 Church Spire - edition of 16 Carwash, Westdene - edition of 15 High-rise, Braamfontien - edition of 20 Abandoned House, Houghton - edition of 6 - SOLD OUT

Monochromatic Looks
Sometimes you just want to stick with one color outfit and that's ok. A monochromatic look can be a great change and is very fashion forward if you do it the right way.
Monochromatic looks can include different shades of one color as this gives your look a little variety and is more interesting.
But don't shy away from wearing that one color, you love, from head to toe. Just add a pop of color in your accessories to break it up a bit. As always have fun with it!

"I think the one thing that's been the most surprising and the biggest benefit of being with Pete and Jill in this program… is realizing just how MUCH of a business college is. It doesn't land that way to the average person because we're expected to go to school and get an education.
I work in the Financial markets and so I understand that the average person will never consistently beat the market without a professional who has quicker access to information and whose job is to pay attention to every pattern and detail. Pete and Jill are my 'college professionals' who have given my family an edge we wouldn't have otherwise even known existed."

Saw a car I liked online. Salesman Gil was assigned to work with me. Gill answered all my questions and worked with my below average credit score. I drove away in a car that exceeded my expectations at an affordable payment. The manager on duty was also very professional and great to work with. Thanks Walser!
Matt Newman was great to work with, friendly and helpful. He has very easy to contact and work with. He has very knowledgeable! Highly recommend!
Helpful and knowledgeable staff.
I am over the Top Happy with my sales person Andrew Guinn and my New to me vehicle!! This was my first time purchasing a vehicle at a larger dealership. Andrew explained the car buying process at Walser, found vehicle in my price range and showed me a number of options.. I appreciate his knowledge, honesty and his patience while I made my decision. There was no pressure to buy from Andrew or the Walser Honda Team.THANK YOU!!
Andrew was great! He answered all of my many questions throughly and had great knowledge of the CR-Vs I was looking at. I would refer anyone I know to him to purchase a car. Brycen on the finance team was also wonderful. I love my new CR-V! Great overall experience with Walser Honda.
Despite not having an appointment to come in and do a test drive yesterday Gil Vargas did not hold that against us. Gil was very welcoming and showed us around the dealership. He was remarkably helpful, professional and knowledgeable. He took the time to ask about what my needs were in a vehicle and what my budget was then offered suggestions. I am by no means an easy customer and I threw A LOT of questions his way which Gil handled with a great deal of patience and humor. He kept us laughing and at ease even though I was ...
Ray Vogel was the best to work with. He made the car leasing experience easy and simple
Heather Briggs is the best! She is very respectful and always pleasant to deal with. If Walser Honda looses her it will be a sad day. She needs a raise ASAP.
Love it
Every experience we have ever had at Walser Honda has been amazing. After our first purchase there we decided that they were our people for cars. Three CRVs later (all positive upgrades!) and we still say the same!

The context:
You want to create a worker thread. Before the main thread goes on, you want to ensure that the worker thread starts.
Using a boost::barrier seems like a good idea.
It would look like:
class Worker { public: Worker() : thread_() { } void run(boost::barrier &barrier) { // init barrier.wait(); // work } void start() { boost::barrier ready(2); thread_ = std::thread(&Worker::run, this, std::ref(ready)); ready.wait(); } private: std::thread thread_; };
A problem occurs with this code when the following sequence appears:
- Main: calls start()
- Main start() creates thread
- start() waits on ready barrier
- Worker starts in run()
- Worker run() waits on ready barrier
Since it is the second call to barrier wait(), both threads are now free to execute. Note that there might still be something to do in the barrier wait() call on each side.
If Main gets the CPU,
- barrier wait() call ends
- start() method ends
- ready barrier is destroyed
Later, Worker wants to continue but the barrier wait() call is now referring to a dead barrier.
The solution: put the barrier in a shared_ptr. This ensures that it will only be destroyed when it is not needed anymore.
class Worker { public: Worker() : thread_() { } void run(std::shared_ptr<boost::barrier> barrier) { // init barrier->wait(); barrier.reset(); // work } void start() { std::shared_ptr<boost::barrier> ready = std::make_shared<boost::barrier>(2); thread_ = std::thread(&Worker::run, this, ready); ready->wait(); } private: std::thread thread_; };
Thanks to my colleague Christophe Bourez for enlighting us on this issue.

Amid strains in the marriage of former Bihar chief minister Lalu Prasad Yadav's son Tej Pratap Yadav, an 11-day puja was performed at the Maa Vindhyavasini Devi temple here, a priest said Friday.
Lalu Yadav's family members have immense faith in the goddess enshrined there and have been frequent visitors to the temple in eastern Uttar Pradesh, bordering Bihar, said priest Raj Mishra.
The priest said he performed the 'havan puja' for them so that they can overcome their current problems.
"A havan puja was held for 11 days to please the 'grah nakshatra' and for peace in the entire family," Mishra said.
He said he talked over the phone with Tej Pratap Yadav, who asked him to pray to the goddess. Yadav could not be contacted to confirm this.
"I have been talking to him and the family all through, ever since the present problems surfaced. We held special prayers to the goddess for the entire family to overcome them," the priest said.
Mishra said he got the puja conducted by 11 priests and the 'purnahuti', marking the end of the prayers, was performed on Thursday night.
Tej Pratap Yadav, a former Bihar minister who has been in the news for his failing marriage, Friday said he is currently in Haridwar.
He told a tv channel that he would not return home until his family backs his decision to divorce his wife of six months.
The Rashtriya Janata Dal leader was seen Saturday in Bodh Gaya, where he had checked in at a hotel after meeting his ailing father at a hospital in Ranchi.
Lalu Prasad Yadav is learnt to have been upset over his elder son's decision to seek divorce.
The former chief minister is serving sentences in a number of fodder scam cases. At present, he is lodged at a hospital in Ranchi on medical grounds.
Tej Pratap Yadav and Aishwarya Rai — daughter of RJD MLA Chandrika Rai and grandchild of former Bihar chief minister Daroga Prasad Rai — had married on May 12.
"Our differences are irreconcilable. I had said this to my parents before the marriage was solemnised. But nobody listened to me then and nobody is listening to me now," the former Bihar minister has said.

Not really a proper top 10 listing, this is just a selection of (mostly) named pioneering aircraft and/ or famous flyers as a theme for a shelf display of diecast model aircraft.
In the beginning, there was Orville and Wilbur Wright - whose Wright flyer made history at
Kitty Hawk
in 1903. The diecast model I have is by Corgi, part of the toy company's
celebratory '100 Years of Flight' range. It is only a small version, with a
wingspan of approx. 11 cm, and the not-to-scale detail is merely satisfactory,
with clear plastic 'windows' supporting the wing struts so the model isn't too
fragile. Still, it's a starter for this decidedly modest collection.
The second pioneer is Louis Bleriot, whose 'Bleriot XI' mono-plane was, in 1909, first to cross the
A year earlier than Earhart's 1932 flight, Amy Johnson set a record time flying from
Designed to be fast, the de Havilland DH-88 Comet was built for the MacRobertson (
air race in 1934. Flown by C.W.A. Scott and Tom Campbell Black, the striking
red version of the plane, named 'Grosvenor House', won the race. London-to-Melbourne
The Comet model by Oxford Diecast (a 'Black Magic' version is also available) comes in 1:72 scale, with a very shiny red finish.
The next choice for a famous pilot is a cheat, really. James 'Biggles' Bigglesworth is a fictional hero of WW1, and his Sopwith Camel bi-plane makes a fine addition to this collection. The diecast model is produced by Amercom in 1:72 scale. Apart from a 1960s TV series, the only screen adventure for this archetypal British hero is sci-fi movie Biggles: Adventures In Time (1986), starring Neil Dickson.
Since we have Biggles, it would be churlish to neglect his airborne opponent, Manfred von Richthofen, the 'Red Baron', and so I have a placeholder model of his Fokker Dr.1 tri-plane. It's a smaller scale diecast made by Lledo, and I'm not sure if the green and red colouring (see below) is authentic. German movie The Red Baron (2008) celebrates his career but, of course, makes him the hero of the war.
Representing flying aces of WW2, there's legendary RAF pilot Douglas Bader, whose Supermarine Spitfire is a 1:72 scale model in Corgi's low-cost Warbirds range.
This is a well-made diecast, but it lacks the detachable undercarriage of the other Spitfire in my collection, an unarmed reconnaissance version in blue (below), also made by Corgi in 1:72 scale.

For small businesses, marketing is a key concern and finding the time, resources and tools to properly promote yourself can be a never-ending struggle.
Thankfully, the last decade has seen a sea change in the way we interact with the online world. With connection speeds growing and the ever-increasing proliferation of internet-capable devices, more people than ever are routinely turning to the web as part of their purchasing process.
This changing behaviour has opened the floodgates for small businesses looking to attract leads through a process commonly referred to as inbound marketing. But how does this new discipline work and what are the best ways for SMEs to take advantage of the opportunities presented by the web?

Please note later than ususal start time: 5:15 pm
Abstract: In the course of the 'human rights revolution' of the late twentieth century, some cases of repression and resistance became icons of the struggle for individual rights—dissent in the Soviet bloc, opposition to Latin American military dictatorships, the fight against Apartheid. But why did these instances garner such broad international attention? An answer, this presentation argues, had not only to do with the degree of repression in those cases but also with how they resonated with the ideas and values of international supporters and with the latter's attempts to shape the emergent global language of human rights. The presentation's focus is on how two such iconic cases—the Polish Solidarity movement and the human rights movement in Chile—featured in different mid-1980s human rights discourses. Reconstructing debates held at the level of the UN, the Nobel Prize Committee or the international labor movement, the presentation will characterize Poland and Chile as "contested icons"—powerful symbols unto which various Western actors tried to project their competing understandings of human rights. But while the presentation shows how Poland and Chile became the subject of a global politics of human rights it will also demonstrate how Polish and Chilean activists skillfully used the moral authority of their movements to strike symbolic alliances and thus keep international attention focused on their countries.

Even before Pakistan closed its border to NATO and US military supply trucks – following a US incursion that killed 24 Pakistani soldiers – the US military had begun the painstaking effort of reducing its reliance on Pakistan to supply its forces in Afghanistan.
In 2009, the US military received 90 percent of its non-military supplies – food, fuel, toiletries, etc. – through the Pakistani port city of Karachi. Tens of thousands of shipping containers were then trucked up through the Pakistani border towns of Chaman and Landi Kotal into Afghanistan. Today, the US military has shifted as much as 40 percent of its overall logistics supply up to a Northern Distribution Network, coming through Russia and several other former Soviet republics. The Pentagon hopes to increase that overall traffic to 75 percent by the end of this year. The Pakistani shutdown could speed up that process.
Costs along the Northern route are almost double that of the Pakistan route, according to a story on Firstpost.com. But the Northern route is still cheaper than air drops, which cost the US military as much as $14,000 per ton.
The Northern route relies on a number of former Soviet nations with pro-Western sentiments – Latvia, Estonia, and Lithuania on the Baltic Sea, and Georgia on the Black Sea – as the initial landing spot for the US military's supplies. On the Latvian route, cargo is carried by truck and train through Russia, and then trucked onward through Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan before entering Afghanistan at the border post of Termez. The Georgian route avoids Russia, crossing into Azerbaijan, crossing the Caspian Sea into Kazakhstan, and then down through Uzbekistan before reaching Afghanistan.
Officially, Pakistan has voiced its frustration at the amount of US military materiel that is shipped across its territory into Afghanistan, but Pakistan also receives millions of dollars in tariff revenues for the use of its ports and roads. American military's surge and drawdown of forces in Afghanistan mean that America's logistics needs have also surged as much as 200 percent and 300 percent. Now much of that tariff revenue will be diverted up to Latvia, Russia, Kazakhstan, Georgia, Azerbaijan, and Uzbekistan. Pakistan's government and its many transport firms stand to lose $100 million a year from the US military's shift to a northern route.
Even if the US military was entirely reliant on Pakistan for its logistics train, the US Army, by policy, maintains a 45-day supply of fuel on the ground in Afghanistan, Pentagon spokesmen say. This means that US troops on the ground would be able to continue their operations, and remain insulated from the logistics or diplomatic problems that are endemic to Pakistan.
In contrast to the US military, NATO is much more reliant on Pakistan for its supply network, continuing to receive 60 percent of its supplies through Karachi. Presumably, NATO planners will shift their supply chain north as well, although the US government has signed agreements over the past year to do so, and NATO – which was created to put the Soviet Union out of business – has not.

For law offices to deal with the enrollment procedure all alone and accomplish the best outcomes, they more often than not have to utilize a selecting division. Be that as it may, while some law offices handle their own enrolling, different firms spare cash by depending on lawful situation administrations for their staffing needs. In the event that your law office right now requires staffing, it won't be elusive a legitimate staffing administration. In any case, finding the best legitimate staffing administration is another matter. Since most expansive law offices reliably encounter staffing needs, finding a world class legitimate situation benefit that offers an assortment of staffing on a progressing premise ought to get need among a law office's staffing concerns. Underneath, we list four qualities that characterize a first class lawful administrations organization as far as staffing.
Proficient Expertise
Similarly as doctors don't really direct doctor position administrations, nor are legitimate situation benefits fundamentally administered by lawyers and paralegals. Be that as it may, with a specific end goal to have knowledge into the requirements of specific law offices, it just bodes well that veteran legitimate experts would deal with a lawful administrations supplier. While having a scholastic information of the lawful business might be adequate to give equipped staffing, the experiential learning that originates from being a honing lawyer or paralegal gives of understanding that staffing organizations keep running by business experts wear not have.
Beat level Clients
On the off chance that your law office is in the top level of its practice zones, it just bodes well to counsel with a lawful administration that has a customer rundown whose qualifications coordinate your own. As anybody in the legitimate proficient surely understands, there is a major distinction between lawful faculty that have the correct certifications and lawful work force that can make an interpretation of those qualifications into top execution. By contracting a legitimate specialist organization whose customer list bespeaks fabulousness, your odds of sitting idle talking potential representatives that don't meet your standard of perfection is essentially diminished.
Broad Screening Process
While the thought is to contract a man with the aptitude, you additionally need to contract somebody that has the correct identity. While a lawyer with a solipsistic attitude may make phenomenal grain for the normal wrongdoing film, contracting such a lawyer could genuinely trade off your association's spirit, cause key colleagues to look for business somewhere else and make your firm contend inside itself rather than against different firms. Putting lawful staff through a broad screening process adds up to more than checking their qualifications and past work execution; it additionally implies assessing them as individuals. All together for new representatives to adjust with your law office's way of life, they require more than the correct resume; they require the correct identity.
As an enrollment counselor, I've seen what isolates amazing legitimate arrangement administrations shape unremarkable ones. The great legitimate administrations are overseen by lawful experts and consequently comprehend that potential workers' office has more than to do with their expert record; it additionally manages whether they can perform at the level that a law office requires, and regardless of whether their identity adjusts with a law office's way of life.

Artist Edition: Be Like Water
Inspiration comes from many things, at any time. It could be a person, an object, a sunset. And sometimes you're on Facebook and catch a glimpse of a Bruce Lee interview you haven't seen in years. For ChrisRWK's — and his latest Artist Edition Water Tower, Be Like Water — inspiration came during a rainy day. As the drops came down, the light came on, and what came out what this beautiful, one-of-a-kind tower, which features Chris's signature robot...drenched in water.
Model Kit Style: Medium Water Tower
Medium Used: Acrylic Paint & Markers
Hometown: Staten Island, New York
Chris's works frequently reveal everyday musings and people one would pass on the street without looking or thinking about twice. These images also aid Chris in the creation of a visual language comprised of his own iconographic imagery. Through the repetition of this imagery, Chris strives to familiarize his viewers with the language he has constructed. Chris believes that the notions within his pieces serve as a backbone to the many stories created by the onlooker when he or she is viewing the work.
In 2001 Chris set in motion RobotsWillKill.com, an arts site dedicated to community and exposure for artists/media often disregarded by the mainstream art world.

My Top 10 Inspirational Travel Photographs
Next Stop: Galway, Ireland
~ Day 3 ~
Oh what an Irish night that was… For those that were there that night in Derry… Well, it's our little secret! Lets just say too many Irish named shots (I.e. Irish car bomb, Irish flag, etc.)! But boy! What a night!
We woke up… Not feeling that greatest but still up and out by 9am! I was sad to leave the Paddy's palace hostel in Derry, because it was the first hostel that felt warm and at home. The staff was cheerful and nice, with Christmas decorations all around, a constant fireplace going and a cute cat. It was fantastic.
Check it out here.
We embarked on a long bus ride to a city that I have been most looking forward to: Galway.
With Shawnie, our Irish bus driver, singing some good ole Irish tunes to get over our morning hangover, we drove through the enchanting Sligo! On the way through, we visited the sacred grave of Ireland's national poet: Nobel Laureate WB Yates.
Afterwards, we continued on driving through the vast archeological and cultural richness of Ireland's North West Coast.
As we had a 4 hour bus ride, not including the two stops on the way, we all slept. Well… Tried too. We had a family with two kids on the bus, among many young, wild, party, adolescents, who were probably well rested and bored. So the bus driver put on an Irish kids film about horses… Basically, I've never heard so many loud and unnecessary sound effects in my life… Even the music eliciting from my headphones couldn't drown the noises coming from this headache-inducing movie. I did manage to get 20 mins of sleep; so that's cool.
We finally arrived at our hostel in Galway (Sleepzone) and I slept in a 12 person room. Besides the unfortunate amount of people I had to sleep in a room with, the hostel was amazing! The staff again were very nice, and the place is beautiful! It doesn't even look like a hostel! Even better!
Eventually, Freya and I hit the city center in Galway, where we went to the Christmas market, then Eyre Center (where I got my Christmas jumper at Penny's, aka Primark of Ireland) and ventured to Shop street. You can imagine what was on this street. Loads and loads of little shops! Galway is known for there Claddagh rings, which basically is a heart, in front of two hands, in front of a crown. The heart is for love, hands are for friendship, and the crown is for loyalty. Many locals buy these rings and give them to the ones they love or a great friend. They are very symbolic and Freya ended up getting one of them!
After shopping, we walked around Galway at night and headed back to the hostel to get ready for dinner with the rest of the Paddy Wagoneers! We went to this cool Irish pub called Skeffs and had dinner and strawberry daiquiri's. We ventured to another local Irish pub (The Quays) with live Irish music, which was really awesome! Reminds me of my favourite Irish pub back home!
That night in Galway was the last night we will be with our other Paddy Wagoneers, as they are all on a 6 day tour of Ireland and Freya and I are on the 10 day tour and continuing to stay in Galway for 3 nights. It was extremely sad to see our new friends go.
We've made some amazing friendships on this tour and I wish we could spend more days traveling with them in Ireland.
Next Stop: Belfast, Northern Ireland
So begins my 10 day tour of Ireland!
~ Day 1 ~
With Paddy Wagon Tours (which I highly recommend taking if you really want see a lot in Ireland in a short amount of time) we started our day by driving to Belfast, which is actually in Northern Ireland and the only part of Ireland that is sectioned off and part of the UK. Ireland is its own country with euros as their currency, while Northern Ireland is part of the United Kingdom and uses pounds. This is a bit of a hassle to carry both euros and pounds, but its interesting at the same time. Not only is currency the only thing that separates Northern Ireland from Ireland, but also the road markings and signs. It's interesting to note that driving in Ireland, you will have yellow lines on the left side of the road, where all of a sudden, when you enter Northern Ireland, the line turns white; indicating that you are now in a different country. There isn't really a border or border patrol to enter each country, so that saves you the hassle of talking to the typically scary and intimidating officers at a country's border.
At the start of our tour, we stopped in Drogheda to see the preserved head of St. Oliver Plunkett (death: 1681) in St. Peter's Cathedral. It felt extremely eerie to see an actual head right near theater of the cathedral and I felt weird talking a picture of it, but I did. You know it's going to be a good day when you start your morning with a viewing of a preserved dead man's head. Afterwards, we stopped at a really beautiful cemetery called Monasterboice.
On our drive to Belfast, we had one of the most cheerful, spontaneous and enthusiastic tour guide who sang Irish songs that some people knew, but most people didn't. He would tell us all about the stories and interesting myths of Ireland and we would all laugh when he said a word that ended in "-th" because the Irish don't pronounce "-th" and just pronounce the "-t". For example, the say three as "tree" or say thirty as "terty". It's quite humorous fun.
Once we arrived, we all took a Black Taxi Tour around Belfast. This tour option is the cheapest and best way to get around the city. The Black Taxi Tour is the most recommended thing to do in Belfast, and it only costed £8 for each person to get driven around all the unique places of Belfast and told of all the history and events that have taken place around the city.
Even though it's the 21st century, there is still religious conflict and riots in Belfast. There have been bombings, gun fires, murders, and distress between the Catholics and Protestants, who a mainly separated from each other in the own encased communities. Literally, there are walls that have been there for decades separating the Catholics and Protestants within the city. You would never have a Protestant living within the Catholic walls, and vice versa.
They have gates within each enclosed community and come Saturday night at 11:59, the gates close for 24 hours. For the entire Sunday, nobody is to leave or enter the gates because it is God's day. Only one gate is left open for security and evacuation reasons, but still, I could not believe that this is going on in Northern Ireland. There is a peace wall in between the two religious communities with colourful political murals and graffiti where visitors can leave messages of peace and hope for the people of Belfast.
After the Black Taxi tour, we all went to the Christmas market. After we all got hot drinks and Christmas goodies, we began our walk around the city. Some people went to the Titanic museum, but it was beyond my money budget (plus I've already been to a lot of titanic museums). On the walk around the city, we saw the city centre, city hall, Albert clock, and Europia (the most bombed hotel in Europe).
Across from the hotel was a convenient store that sold something surprising and amazing: Tim Hortons. This was the only place in Ireland and in the UK where I saw Tim Hortons being sold. Tim Hortons is a very Canadian novelty and seeing Timmy's in another country made me feel like I was back home again in Canada. I miss my Tim Hortons.
In the evening, all the paddy wagoners went out for dinner at an Irish pub and had a great time getting to know everyone. The hostel we stayed at was the sketchiest hostel I've ever stayed at. Barely any of keys would work and one room had to get the door broken into, because the none of the keys would work. I also had these guys knocking on the window in the middle of the night asking me to let them in, because they forgot their key. We were told not to let anyone from the outside in, because the last time some foolish tourist did that…
The outcome was horrific.
Important travel tip:
Bring Earplugs. They were literally a godsend with people knocking on the nearby window and the restless noises of 11 other people in your 12 person room. Perks of staying at a hostel for cheap.
Overall, Belfast was full of surprises, turmoil, history, and even beauty. If you are one for religious and political conflicts or the history surrounding it, check out Belfast, because although it's the 21st century, it seems like they still live in the 19th or 20th century. It's quite an interesting and unique city.

St. Patrick's Day in IRELAND!
St. Patrick's Day in Ireland has always been a
"must thing" to do on my bucket list, and for 2013, I was able to cross this experience off my bucket list with a Guinness in my hand, and an irish crowd cheering on a great day in Dublin!
Back home at my university, there is a tradition that we do on St. Patrick's Day. This tradition begins with a pancake kegger that commences early in the morning, and consists of a glorious amount of green-coloured pancakes (sometimes shaped like four-leaf clovers if you're lucky), and lots of green-coloured beer. This is our breakfast for St. Patrick's Day.
Sounds grand doesn't it?
This year, we brought this tradition to Dublin and we began operation "pancake kegger" at 10am on the morning of St. Patrick's Day. What made the day even better was the fact that we had so many people from my university back home at this pancake kegger, including my best friend Savannah, who you may recall from my trip to Oktoberfest in Germany this past year. Last year, Savannah and I celebrated St. Patrick's Day together in Canada, and this year we were able to spend the green-filled day in Ireland together. It's now our yearly tradition!
LET THE PANCAKE KEGGER COMMENCE! Sorry, got a bit too excited there…
Ireland ran out of green food colouring, so none of our pancakes were green, but we decided to just add extra chocolate chips in them, and oh boy… were they delicious! Savannah made the best pancakes I have ever had! They also went down amazingly with beer and wine. This was a great start to the morning!
After a few shots here, and a couple of fake tattoo's there, we all made our way to the St. Patrick's Day Parade! As I walked through Trinity College to get to parade, all I could think about was "Wow, you're celebrating St. Patrick's Day in Ireland… I'm so lucky to be here and alive".
Once we got to the parade, all you can see is 50 shades of green throughout the enormous crowd. I don't think I've ever seen this many people jam-packed together in a street, let alone Dublin, in my life. Everyone had big smiles on their faces and eager to see the parade! I don't really remember much of the parade – all I can remember is feeling the energy of the crowd and how amazing it was to be in this moment with my friends talking, drinking, singing, etc.
Here's what Savannah captured of the parade:
After the 2 hour-long parade, we headed back to my friend's place where we either continued to drink, eat or nap (as you do mid-way through St. Patrick's day). Afterwards, we all got refreshed, and started to get ready to hit the city nightlife hard. Savannah, Jenn and I ended up touring the streets of Dublin for a bit and then ended up in this irish pub called "The Duke" with barely any tourists, and had the real authentic irish experience! It's great that I have a friend whose a local in Dublin and knows where the best places to go!
In the end, silly drunk Ryan thought to further this irish experience he would try some irish whiskey… Ryan had been drinking since 10am and finishing the night off with whisky was a no-no. Silly Ryan. Oh well! Overall, Ryan and Savannah had an amazing time in Dublin and had a spectacle St. Patrick's Day in Ireland. There's something I can finally cross off my bucketlist! I recommend that anyone and everyone who has thought about celebrating St. Patrick's Day in Ireland…. DO IT! It was one of the best days of my life! If I were to come back for St. Patrick's Day again, I would definitely go to a smaller city/town in Ireland, such as Cork or Galway, because there would be less tourists, and more irish locals that would be willing to show tourists a good time!
Until next time….
Check out my bucketlist!

Next Stop: Aran Islands, Ireland
Planning a trip to Ireland for a few days or even a week or two? I highly recommend taking an intensive and well-worth tour of Ireland with Paddywagon Tours. I personally recommend that it is the best (and often quickest) way to see as much as Ireland as possible in your travels.
On my 4th day in Ireland, I got the amazing opportunity while staying Galway to travel to the Aran Islands, which are among the many hidden gems of Ireland.
My best friend from Canada visited her family in Ireland in the summer of 2012, and told me about the Aran Islands, and said it was a MUST SEE. She was absolutely right. It's not part of a lot of tours in Ireland, so if you are traveling Ireland independently, make sure this is on your list to see. (Directions on how to get there will be explained below)
The Aran Islands constitute of three islands situated at the mouth of Galway Bay, on the west coast of Ireland. The islands from west to east are named: Inishmore, Inishmaan, and Inisheer.
Inishmore is the largest island and the one I was told to visit. You will have to take a coach from Galway to the docks outside of Galway where you get a boat ride to the Aran Islands. There are travel companies in Galway that offer this coach+boat ride deal to the Aran Islands, so it should be no problem getting there. When I arrived to Inishmore, there only seemed to be one bus tour awaiting for tourists to arrive. Because I went during the winter time (extremely low season), there was only 3 tourists on the whole entire island. It was absolutely deserted and we had the whole island by ourselves to explore. It was so surreal and amazing.
In terms of getting around the Island, there are bikes for hire (great option during nice weather/summer time, but beware that it is extremely hilly and exhausting), as well as cheap bus tours. I took a bus tour of the Island with a local who spoke very interesting english, and fluent Irish. He even had a leprechaun dangling from his front mirror. He was full of knowledge and taught us about the island and its history.
The island is constructed of limestone, and by this, I mean there are hundreds and thousands of limestone walls around the fields. The island was entirely made of limestone and almost inhabitable, but with hard work and dedication from the Irish locals, they gathered great amounts of limestone and constructed unaccountable amount of walls around the entire island. It was miraculous to see in person. I don't think I've seen anything like it.
On the tour, we were dropped off at Dun Aengus for about two hours to explore an ancient stone fort, with an amazing view of the coast, as well as shop and eat in the little village. The nature walk to the ancient stone fort was beautiful and relaxing. This ancient stone fort was my favourite site on the island, because of the spectacular view. Be careful along the edge of the cliff because there are extremely strong winds and no guard or rail to protect you from falling over the edge. This does offer some amazing photography opportunities however. If you don't believe me, then take a look at the view from the edge of the cliff.
The island is completed isolated and you get that feel when you drive around the island. It almost feels like the inhabitants are still living in the 1930's. Many of the houses on the Aran Islands are thatched homes, which are so interesting to see and learn about. Here is an image of one of the thatched homes.
Driving along the coast of the island was also amazing to do. The island is just as green as you would expect Ireland to be (besides the innumerable amount of stone
and walls). I spent the remainder of the day checking out all the little shops that offer homemade clothing by the local inhabitants, as well as the famous Aran sweaters.
I ended the day if a chill visit to one of the local pubs and, of course, a fresh pint of Guinness. The server even put a four-leaf clover on the top of my Guinness (as they often do this for tourists) and this made my day.
Overall, I had an amazing day on the Aran Islands, and it was something different to see. A place I had not expected, and still one of my favourite, and most relaxing places I've travelled too. If you do get a chance, it would be interesting to go during a high-peak seasons for tourists, like the Spring or Summer.
Also, make sure you finish the day off with a pint of Guinness!
Directions on how to get there: Find a tourist agency in Galway and look for a package deal on getting to the Aran Island Ferries. This service operates a year round service, but offer limited ferry rides, so do get there early. All the ferries are passenger only, thus, no car ferries are available. Make sure you set a full day to visit the Aran Islands, and please let me know what you thought of the islands if you do plan to visit 🙂

Is Moving Insurance Right for You
Moving itself is quite a hectic process and you need to spend money on it to make it smooth. If you miss on the insurance coverage of moving items then the entire process can turn into a terrible experience. While moving, several things are transferred at one time and during the course there remains every possibility of some of the items being damaged, lost or theft. Moving insurance protects you against such loss so that you can recover the loss in case of any damage, theft or accident. In most cases, moving is done in a safe manner, but the insurance coverage at least provides you the mental satisfaction, which is much needed in this stressful relocation process. Therefore, moving insurance is definitely right for you.
Finding moving insurance
Various sources provide moving insurance services. In most cases, people look out for such service with their moving companies. As per law, all the providers of relocation services are liable to a certain extent to pay for the damages and loss of moving items that take place during the process of relocation. In case, you have not appointed a moving company and rented a truck for self relocation, then also the truck rental companies are bound by certain legal aspects of insurance.
Additional insurance package
Nowadays, most of the movers are coming up with a wide range of insurance coverage for the relocation. These services are offered as add on benefits and the movers are charging an extra cost for these insurance packages.
Agreement with homeowner's policies
In some cases, the moving and transferring responsibility of the items falls under the homeowner's policies. So you can check whether your policy includes such a provision or not. This will save your money as you are not needed to separately invest into a moving insurance policy. If your homeowner's policy does not include such a clause, then you can easily get a new policy with such features. However, make sure the kind of coverage your homeowner's policy will provide if you suffer any loss of relocation items.
Third party provider
If you choose not to opt for your mover or homeowner's policy for moving insurance, then you can always work with a third-party insurance company in this regard. There are many such companies that provide a wide range of insurance coverage for relocation and you will definitely find a suitable for your requirement. Make a good research on such companies and decide the best provider according to the type of coverage you receive and the cost.
Mental relief
Peace of mind is what you need in this process of relocation. When you are assured that all your moving items are insured and you will get the coverage for losses during the transit, if any, then you automatically get mental relief and enjoy the whole event of relocation.
If you are looking for moving insurance services in Las Vegas, then you can contact us – Move On Moving. We provide a wide range of moving insurance and relocation services.

The idea was, by giving myself a something of a hobby to-do list, I'd actually get some hobbying done.
Or, at least, that I'd manage to accomplish more than I'd done the year before when I hadn't made a list.
Unfortunately, that list didn't do much to help me. In fact, that list was pretty much exactly this list. I'm sure that one can use the excuse that life got in the way, as life tends to find ways to do, but nonetheless it left me with quite a pile of stuff to sort, glue and paint and not a single bit of hobbying actually accomplished.
This year, however, I'd like to actually start completing some of the various hobby projects I've got laying around. I've got, literally, a room full of little plastic men (and women, beasts and armament if we want to be entirely inclusive) from various armies that I'd thought were good ideas at some point in time and they deserve to be assembled, converted, painted and see the field of battle.
In fact, I've also got some fields of battle that need to be painted and played on lest they feel neglected and unwanted and unloved, but I digress.
Therefore, be it resolved that I will complete all of the following armies -- in their entirety -- before I buy anything else.*
- The Iron Men of the Mechanicum (1000pts.)
Yes, this army is Iron Man themed. No, I don't care if you don't like me mixing geek genres.
1x Magos Dominus (a 'Tony Stark-flavored' Ferrus Manus conversion)
6x Thallax
3x Castellax Battle Automata
3x Castellax Battle Automata
Additional units I've already purchased which can be used to expand this force: 3x Thallax, 5x Myrmidon Destructors (a unit of converted Iron Hands Gorgon Terminators), 1x Thanatar Siege Automata, and 1x Questoris Knight Magaera.
- The Tau (500pts. / 750pts.)
I have a paint scheme in mind for this army, but no fluff because, well, I haven't dug that far into their background or whatnot. I've just always thought they looked cool.
1x Cadre Fireblade
{ 6x Fire Warriors}
3x XV8 Crisis Battlesuits
3x Stealth Shas'ui Battlesuits
1x Pirahna
2x Tetra
1x XV104 Broadside
Additional units I've already purchased which can be used to expand this force: 1x Pirahna (Forgeworld variant).
- The Night Lords (750pts.)
This is a Vampire Counts-flavored version of the Night Lords. Think something along the lines of the Night Lords fleeing into the Warp, a chapter settling a dark, sunless planet and thereupon discovering that there are scarier things in the night than they themselves.
Before you protest, in W40K lore, there are such things as Vampires. Imagine what they could do if they managed to infiltrate a (fallen) legion of the Astartes ...
1x Chaos Lord with Jump Pack
20x Chaos Cultists
20x Chaos Cultists
5x Raptors / Warp Talons
6x Raptors / Warp Talons
1x Heldrake
Additional units I've already purchased which can be used to expand this force: 1x Knight Titan.
- The Carcharadons Astra (1,500pts.)
This army is intended to be more fluffy than uber-competitive. That said, I'd still like it to kill things.
1x Tyberos the Red Wake
5x Assault Terminators
5x Assault Terminators
{ 5x Assault Terminators }
{ 5x Assault Terminators }
7x Scout Squad (Snipers)
5x Scout Squad (in transport with Shotguns)
5x Scout Squad (in transport with Shotguns)
Additional units I've already purchased which can be used to expand this force: 1x Contemptor Dreadnought, and 1x Leviathan Dreadnought.
Doing the math, there really aren't a large number of models there to paint though, obviously, some a larger significantly larger than others. With any sort of efficiency, I should easily be able to complete this in a matter of months. Not later than the end of April, I'm sure.
To get it to the standard I'd like them to be, however, and taking into account the fact that there will never be the sort of time I imagine there to be to actually complete this list, I'll double that estimate and say that I hope to have this done by the beginning of August.
So, what will I ever do to fill the rest of my year ... ?
Oh, there are things. But, I'll have to write about those more later.
(* - This 'no more buying' ban, obviously, does not include the units or individual bits necessary to complete those armies. As it is, for example, I'm actually about three units short of filling out those lists as they stand so the ban would not apply to those units. And, if inspiration strikes, I may throw the ban out entirely ... )

Incredible visuals and engaging adventure make for a fun watch! Marvel at the beautiful west American landscape and dream for just a little bit about what it would be like to be a cowboy. Also touches on land for public/private use, and how the animals who live there might be better managed. Worth a watch!
Journey of a lifetime for these young men. It also brings attention to the ever growing problem of land space to feed both horse and cattle. Touching at times and the music is awesome and fitting.
Great movie, you really get to know these guys, their love for each other and the horses, and their struggles to separate at the end of their 3,000 mile journey on horseback through some of the most challenging and beautiful terrain in the world....
very interesting dynamics between the 4 men and the men and the horses. Val and his song add a special touch. unreliable maps and gps readings present some tough challenges.
but what to do about the 50,000 wild horses in holding pens???
Very good. Will make you laugh and cry.
