I flew from Dubai to Amman. It was easy to take the shuttle bus from the airport to the bus station. Once there I began my endless fight with Jordanian taxi drivers. Even the locals call them "mafia". Dubai was all big and shiny – Amman is all box-shaped sand-coloured buildings. I stayed at a hotel one block from the Roman Theatre. I think the hotel was built about the same time, but it was clean and the staff were pleasant, so I was fine.
I spent a couple of days just walking around the little streets and enjoying the souks. Amman has some pretty steep hills so walking was usually a workout. I felt very safe. As the sun goes down and the temperatures cool off, the city heats up. Vendors pile their products everywhere and the pressure to "Come and look" increases. I went to a huge fruit and veggie market. Some vendors had loudspeakers announcing what they sold, others just yelled. It was chaos at its finest. I tried to buy a couple of bananas, but they wanted to charge me $6.
I planned to go to Jerash for a day. It is a small city within an hour from Amman. It has incredible Roman ruins. I took the local bus and spent about 5 hours just wandering around the very large site. I loved standing in the seating area of the chariot racing track. I am sure it was the site of lots of excitement in its day. Many of the ruins were very well preserved. It could be improved if someone cleaned up the garbage and the endless cigarette butts. Walking back to catch the bus, I took a wrong turn. I ended up on a little street. An old man had a tarp spread out under an olive tree, and he was up a ladder knocking the olives down. His wife was giving him directions. They did not speak English, but she got their young son who was able to tell me how to get to the bus.
The day I was leaving I got packed and checked out of my hotel. As the hotel was on a very steep hill I planned to flag a taxi in front of my hotel. There was NO traffic. I walked down the hill to a big main street – and there was no traffic there either. The street was all blocked off as there was a marathon in progress. I asked a police officer where I could catch a taxi and he pointed and said "5 minutes". He certainly must walk faster than I do – it was about 3 kms. Once again I was so happy my backpack weighs so little.
Jordan is not a budget destination. As a Western tourist, I am used to paying more than locals in poorer countries. I felt this was taken to an extreme in Jordan. A bus trip that cost me 7.5 JD ($10) cost a local $2. By the time I left the country I felt most locals considered me a walking ATM. The price difference in much poorer countries has always been much less.

Radio Metal recently conducted an interview with singer Charlotte Wessels of Dutch symphonic metallers DELAIN. A couple of excerpts from the chat follow below.
Radio Metal: Your guitar player, Timo Somers, will not join you on this tour. He will be replaced by current DORO and former AFTER FOREVER guitarist Bas Maas. What brought about this situation?
Charlotte: Timo is really busy with a lot of musical projects. When he auditioned for the position of guitarist for DELAIN, we already knew that music was really in his blood. He has so many projects going on, and he was really busy. We were wondering how we could think of a solution that would provide everybody space. We were actually thinking about having two guitarists joining us when Bas Maas came along. There were enthusiastic about the possibility of filling the job together. It's not really a thing that you would automatically go for, but when we saw the option of having these two very talented guitarists who were willing to take the responsibility, we thought it might be a very good idea. We're curious to see how it turns out and to have Bas on stage with us for the first time.
Radio Metal: Unfortunately, we haven't heard the [new DELAIN] album ["We Are The Others"] yet, but there were a couple of extracts in various videos you posted on line, especially in the tour trailer. These tracks sound particularly heavy, and some of the titles are quite aggressive: "Hit Me With Your Best Shot", "Where Is The Blood", etc. Does this album mark a change of direction for DELAIN?
Charlotte: These questions are very difficult to answer for me. Usually, it's more the public than ourselves that decides whether or not it's going in a certain direction. What I can say is that, lyrically, I've been trying not to avoid anything, like aggressive things or lyrics that I would normally think should be a bit more subtle. I've been looking for the limits, like: "How far can you express yourself without crossing certain borders?" Musically, you mentioned it was quite heavy. I think it has to do with… I mean, there are very different songs on the record. Some songs are actually much more poppy, and others are more heavy. It really goes in a lot of directions. But I feel that it does portray one identity. I think we also owe that to Tripod, our production team, and Jacob Hellner, who's worked with RAMMSTEIN and APOCALYPTICA. He's worked very much with the band, on just the groove of the band. When you listen to this album, there's a little less orchestration going on. It's a little bit more straightforward, with drums and guitars, more in your face. This is what I really like about it, and what I think makes even the poppier songs still more intense, in a way. Everything is real and right there.
Radio Metal: The change seems to be very important — compared to "Lucidity", at least, perhaps not to "April Rain"…
Charlotte: I can imagine. In a band, you feel like you naturally evolve to a certain state, because there are years that you just spend writing songs. Of course, the audience doesn't see the whole process. They see one spot of the process, which is called "Lucidity", one spot called "April Rain", and then "We Are The Others". They don't get to know what happened in between, and how some choices don't come from a sudden desire to do something else, but were naturally created.
Radio Metal: "We Are The Others" is DELAIN's third studio album. It was probably too early before to talk about a live album, but are you starting to think about it now?
Charlotte: (long pause) It's not the first thing on my mind. We've recorded some live tracks and mixed them properly, so we've actually got some decent quality live songs ready. Maybe one day we'll do it, and of course, it will be great to have it. But I just really like to create new music more. These days, you can see every live gig on YouTube. I can imagine it would be nice to have something, because I like listening to live tracks of other bands, but to me, it's not the most exciting thing. I'm more thinking about album number four already!

Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Robert Kohl but I go by Rob. In my past life I was a son of a PADI instructor and a saturation bell diver by the early age of 22. I've been down to 720' and have over 30 years of exploring what our Earths' waters have to offer. Now my life goal is to show others the power of the sea.
I'm starting this blog to help empower others to be able to experience the other two thirds of our planet like I've been able to. I hope to do this by providing you with a blueprint of your path to the sea no matter your level, through ongoing discussion, knowledge sharing and critically thinking about everything there is to know about all levels of diving, paddling and swimming.
I also want to provide the resources, on all levels, that will allow you to get out on (or in) the water and enjoy it. It's a great feeling. Whether it is kayaking, paddleboarding or swimming, this blog will cover it all.

Septal Perforation repair with revision rhinoplasty
The most common cause of a septal perforation is previous nasal surgery with or without rhinoplasty. Patients who see me for revision rhinoplasty may require a septal perforation repair at the same time.
Depending on the size of the perforation, it may be possible to close it during revision rhinoplasty. This may require ear fascia or ear cartilage during the procedure.
Revision rhinoplasty is a complex procedure which is only made more difficult with a need for septal perforation repair. Both of these procedures should be tackled by an experienced and skillful rhinoplasty doctor.

Balloon sinus surgery
Patients who have recurrent sinus infections and are seeking sinus surgery in addition to rhinoplasty or sinus surgery alone may have heard of balloon sinuplasty or balloon sinus surgery. This is where a small balloon is used to fracture the small thin bone at the opening between the sinus and the nose widening this opening and allowing mucus to exit into the nose more easily. This therefore helps prevent further and more extensive sinus infections.
Balloon sinuplasty is an excellent option for those patients who have recurrent sinus infections but don't have significant findings on their CT scan. Balloon sinuplasty can easily be done at the same time as rhinoplasty or revision rhinoplasty.

Rhinoplasty for the crooked nose
Rhinoplasty for a crooked nose is one of the more difficult noses to fix. This is due to multiple reasons. One is if there are facial asymmetries. It is difficult to create a perfectly straight nose on a face that is not symmetric. 97% of us have facial asymmetries so we can only get so straight.
Additionally, cartilage has memory. If the nose is perfectly straight on the operating table (or as straight as the facial assymetries allow), one cannot control the wound healing process. Despite placing certain sutures, grafts, fracturing the bones, and a cast, the cartilage may want to move back towards its original position and lose some correction. Patients must understand that their nose may stay perfectly straight, but have to agree to at least having a straightER nose long term.

Rhinoplasty and turbinate reduction
During rhinoplasty, a turbinate reduction is frequently performed at the same time. The turbinates are structures that moisten the air as it passes through the nose. They can also become quite swollen during an allergy attack and lead to significant congestion, post nasal drip and obstruction.
With inferior turbinate reduction, the lateral aspect and bone of the turbinate is removed leaving the medial mucus producing size. This way, the turbinate can still function but will not be able to swell as much with allergies.
It is important not to over-resect the turbinates as they are critical to preventing a dry nose and creating "turbulent" flow of air in the nose to give the air time to be warmed and humidified.
Dr. Funk is a rhinoplasty expert in Houston, TX.

Congrats and well done! You are making such great progress!
Thank you! I was so excited this morning, couldn't believe it at first because I had been wobbling up and down on the scales for a week at least, but my insides got their act together and my weight dropped down to the expected number today. Happy times!
Brilliant, congratulations!! :-)

"Non MC methods" usually refer to deterministic methods that provides some quick approximation of the posterior distribution. Historically, a proeminent non-MC method is the well-known Laplace's approximation, but other methods such as Variational Bayes and Expectation-Propagations have emerged reccently in Machine Learning. All these methods are introduced very clearly in e.g. Chris Bishop's book (not available on-line). One issue with these fast approximations is that it is often not easy to assess the approximation error.
Laplace's approximation
Note that the term "Laplace's approximation" may refer to slightly different things; in machine learning, the most common meaning is that of a way to compute a Gaussian distribution that approximates the posterior distribution, while in Statistics it usually refers to a way to approximate certain posterior moments; see the classical paper of Tierney and Kadane (1986) for the latter. Of course in both cases it amounts to do some Taylor expansion of the log posterior density around the mode.
- Wikipedia has an entry on LA as a general method for approximating integrals, but with few details specific to Statistics.
- David McKay's book has a small Chapter on LA.
- See also the slides by Ryan Guerra and Sargur Srihari.
INLA (Integrated nested Laplace Approximation) is turbo-charged version of LA that have shown excellent performance (i.e. very small approximation error) when applied to models based on a latent GMRF (Gaussian Markov random field). The main paper on INLA is here, but one may also get started by browsing the r-inla package web-site, which includes in particular an introduction to INLA and the models it can process.
Variational Bayes
- Wikipedia has a rather long entry on VB.
- A tutorial by Fox and Roberts can be found here.
- The following paper is not a review, but it explains VB in a very nice way, which might be more approachable to Statisticians not familiar with ML terminology: Faes, C., Ormerod J.T. and Wand M.P. (2011); preprint, paper in JASA.
Expectation Propagation
EP (Minka, 2004) is a relatively new non-MC method; a good introduction is the paper Expectation Propagation for Exponential Families by Matthias Seeger. Thomas Minka has useful webpages on his own EP papers and a roadmap to research using EP.

Plastic Man: The Artful Life of Jerry Ross Barrish
Jerry Barrish was the product of an environment that little appreciated the finer arts, much less the wildness of modern art. His hardworking, San Francisco Jewish relatives were boxing enthusiasts vaguely connected to the mob. It was these connections that got him started in the bail bonds business. Then he broke the mold, becoming the bailout guy for radical sixties protestors. Inspired by the times, he went further afield, delving into art collecting, and then launching himself as a filmmaker and sculptor. Barrish's long and circuitous route as an artist always on the verge, rubbing shoulders with the successful and celebrated, while never quite breaking through, is the dramatic tale told by Plastic Man. It finds him at a seeming artistic standstill about 25 years ago, living next to a trash-strewn beach in Pacifica, California. Creative by necessity, he begins collecting the detritus — especially the plastic — and assembling it into whimsical, evocative, poignant human and animal figures. Barrish reassembles his life as a sculptor but hits another snag — the art world approves the imagination but scorns the material. Barrish's beloved plastic won't do for the world of commercial galleries. Yet, by the end of Plastic Man the artist finds his vindication, and the immeasurable pleasure of wide visibility, in a public commission for the troubled, low-income Hunter's Point neighborhood nearby where he works — a 15-foot horn player constructed from the forms of a disassembled gun.

So, I mentioned a couple of times in the previous posts that my friend's birthday was coming up. I picked some restaurants for the dinner, and the birthday girl chose one, which was Siena. When I called them and asked if we can bring some cake with us, a lady, who answered the phone, said not allowed due to the health/sanitary concern. I understood their point of view. While I was discussing with my friends what we wanted to do, either change the restaurant, or no cake to bring but order at the restaurant or go somewhere else for dessert, I got a returning call from the lady, saying we can bring cake but they will charge $2.50 per person. Anyways, I made a reservation online at the end. 😀
Siena Restaurant is at lively South Granville, a couple blocks away from Broadway. They are a casual Italian restaurant where can serve maybe 40 people.
We were a group of five, and two boys decided to go for Prix Fixe, three course meal, and the rest of us, girls went for antipasti to share and ordered each entree.
Antipasti (for two)
(Asparagus Salad, Smoked Salmon, Olives, Salmon Mousse, Sopresetta, Orzo Salad, Roasted Garlic, Focaccia, Lentil-Pepper Salad)
This antipasti was enough to share with three people. We even offered to the others, who ordered Prix Fixe, to have some. I, personally, liked asparagus salad and salmon mousse. As we shared with everybody, we asked extra focaccia.
Appy from Prix Fixe, Baby Arugula Salad
(Limoncello Vinaigrette, Parmesan)
Linguine con Vongole
(Clams steamed in White Wine, Garlic and Olive Oil)
The birthday girl was so happy to have this. Actually, the reason why she decided to go to this restaurant was the picture of vongole on their website! 🙂 And, you know what? It tasted great!
Spaghettini alla Puttanesca
(Tomato, Chili, Garlic, Anchovies, Olives, Capers)
The other girl friend went for this, and she said it was salty. I tasted, and I thought the saltiness came from olives.
Seared Scallops on Pesto Risotto
(Qualicum Bay Scallops, Oven-dried Tomatoes)
This was what I ordered. The first bite of the risotto made me think. The second bite made me ask my friends to try. For the third bite, I asked salt, because it was so bland. Although the server brought salt, the owner or manager came and offered to make a new one. The scallop was perfect, though. Yes, the risotto was fine at the second time.
Entree from Prix Fixe, Grilled Flat Iron Steak
(Salsa Verde, Roasted Fingerlings, Arugula, Parmesan)
Collin ordered this one. He said it would have been better if arugula didn't hide steak.
Entree from Prix Fixe, Braised Lamb Ravioli
(Citrus Gremolata, Brown Butter, Pecorino)
The other boy friend ordered and loved this one. Yet, he wished there were more ravioli in the plate. 🙂
Dessert from Prix Fixe, Vanilla Gelato with Balsamic Fig Syrup
(Almond Thyme Biscotti)
Dessert from Prix Fixe, Chocolate Hazel Torte
(Orange Caramel)
And, the birthday girl received a glass of complimentary sherry (?) from the restaurant.
Dessert from a bakery cafe we brought in.
I won't reveal where those are from now. (Well, you must have known!) Look forward the next post.
Anyways, even though we were five of us, they didn't charge the fee $2.50 per person for five, maybe because two of us ordered their dessert with Prix Fixe.

Do you know someone who has had a blood cancer? Chances are, if you do, they may have been helped by the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. One person is diagnosed every three minutes with blood cancer. Another 171,550 are expected to be diagnosed in 2016 according to the Leukemia-Lymphoma Society.
Christina Szilvassy, campaign assistant for Pennies for Patients, says the society began in 1949. Its mission is to find a cure for blood cancer. It supports families and patients fighting cancer by assisting them with co-pays and travel programs.
Pennies for Patients began to involve more of the community and reach students. "This year we have 500 plus schools participating," says Szilvassy. Schools can register to commit to a fundraiser coin drive. Szilvassy also says schools participate in walk-a-thons, dollar days, movie nights, dodge ball games and online fundraising. The money is used for patient services and research.
Kids can help someone who has blood cancer by getting involved in the Pennies for Patients Program, says Szilvassy. You can find out more at Lls.org.

The project integrated computer science and archaeological approaches in an investigation of the subterranean medieval charnel chapel of Holy Trinity church in Rothwell (Northamptonshire), which houses one of only two remaining in situ medieval ossuaries in England. The chapel, which was constructed during the 13th century, houses disinterred human skeletal remains radiocarbon dated to the 13th-15th and 18th-19th centuries. While medieval charnelling was a European-wide phenomenon, evidence has largely been lost in England following the early 16th-century Reformation, and Rothwell is the most complete surviving example of a charnel chapel with in situ medieval remains. Recent research within the Department of Archaeology has suggested that these charnel structures served a much more complex liturgical role than merely permitting the clearance of overly-full graveyards (which has long been presumed to be their prosaic role); they also provided places of pilgrimage and were the focus of intercessory devotion, where the faithful could pray for the souls of the departed whilst in the physical presence of their corporeal remains. Rothwell charnel chapel is, hence, a site of major international significance, but analysis of the site is hampered by issues of access and preservation. The proposed project has four principal aims:

1. to develop analysis of the hitherto largely unstudied medieval charnel chapel by collecting digital records of the charnel deposit and their environment;

2. to enhance interpretation of the manner in which the ossuary was utilized in the medieval period, through digital capturing of the spatial arrangements within the chapel, and the range of medieval vantage points into the chapel;

3. to present this fragile, and largely inaccessible (due to narrow stair access, now blocked medieval windows and cramped internal space), heritage resource to the public in a sustainable manner; and

4. to facilitate preservation of the ossuary, which is in a fragile state, in the form of digital preservation in situ.

A Leica ScanStation P20 3D scanner was used to capture a 3D point cloud of the charnel chapel. Seventeen scans were taken at different locations and registered (using Leica Cyclone) to produce a model containing 60 million points. This data set is supplied in the following formats:

E57 file format – Oss_E57.e57

.ptx file format – Ossuary_PTX.ptx

Initial work was done (see publications) to convert the point cloud into a 3D virtual reality model of the space. A simplified (decimated) mesh containing approx. 3.5 million faces is available in .obj format as mesh.zip (which contains mesh.obj, mesh.mtl, and eight supporting texture files: tex_0.jpg to tex_7.jpg).

When I awoke this morning, it was 51 degrees Fahrenheit. For Central Florida, that is more than just a little chilly. Really. If you are on the beach in Florida and have to use your beach blanket as outer wear, you know the autumn-winter season has finally arrived. At least for a while.
My other sign that the autumn-winter season is here occurs tomorrow night (Oct. 31). ABC will air the animated classic, "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown." Yes, I admit it; the animated Peanuts' crew is one of my favorite seasonal barometers.
Every year we see Linus write a letter to the Great Pumpkin. He believes the Great Pumpkin will visit on Halloween and reward the good little boys and girls with treats and gifts. In expressing his belief, Linus encounters a little conflict, beginning with the mailbox. He can't reach it. His sister Lucy won't help him. With his own resources, he finds a creative way to drop his letter in the box.
He shares his excitement but it seems no one really believes him. Everyone tries to dissuade him from going to the pumpkin patch to wait for the Great Pumpkin. His sister threatens him and Charlie Brown's dog, Snoopy, laughs at him. Holding firm to his belief, he goes to the pumpkin patch anyway and waits. He is so strong in his belief, he convinces little Sally to wait with him. They wait. They wait some more. Sally decides to leave. Linus, true to his belief, stays and promises to put a good word in for her.
For those who do not know the ending, I am not giving it away. You will have to watch the movie.
I wonder if cartoonist Charles Schulz knew what a great philosopher and teacher he was when he created this story. This simple children's film provides a profound message of holding on to one's belief and persevering in one's mission. Linus does not let the doubters — with their snickers and threats — deter him. Nothing sways him.
A simple, childlike faith. That's the real gift.
Movie still from "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown" by Charles Schulz.

I really enjoyed photographing the intricacies of Canterbury when I visited for the first time back in January. So I decided to extend the project to cities ( and admittedly yes, some towns) on the South Coast. At the beginning of the year I set myself the task of exploring more of the British Isles, I'm using photography as my guide, helping me enjoy some of the less-scenic locations I've visited.
Let me know anywhere you've visited in the UK and would recommend, I think Scotland is next on my list. I'm still editing the thousands of photos I took in Iceland am keeping my Instagram updated @madisonbeachphotos and slowly getting round to updating my website http://www.madisonbeach.com.

I am going to walk here the dimensions of the word love and the assumptions that I have created of the word "Love", and how it is that I have been living it, and then I will proceed with the application of forgiveness over the assumption, the definition and I will redefine the word to live it as a true expression of life.
Today I asked to a girl if she would like to be my girlfriend, and obviously the answer was no, because I actually don´t know her, therefore it was obvious that the answer was going to be no, I mean, I would be scared if she answered yes, because it would be like "fuck", now what the heck am I going to do? lol. But being honest, I didn't thought about it when I did it, I was just like, immerse in the energetic emotional reaction when telling to this girl that I was attracted to her and that I wanted her to be my girlfriend, and I mean, I already knew that the answer was going to be no, but, you know, when you are a clown, you have your smile in the face, painted for everyone to see it, you try to smile as much as you can, but you always know within yourself that is fake.
What I mean bu this, is that I had a reaction towards her answer, the sensation is quite well known by everyone, the sensation of not being good enough, and I begun to think about it, and I also tried to create like this perception of superiority within me to elevate my ego, you know, is like when you go to the bathroom and you say to yourself, "but look at this, I mean, I am a great clown and I look so nice and so cool with these clothes and the makeup and whatever…", and what I was trying to understand is, why is it that I have become so obsessed for getting a relationship? why is it that I am thinking all the time about it and I mean, if I am really aware that the thoughts are not real and that it is only program, why is it that I am following them when I think about getting a relationship?
I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to react to my own thoughts in fear, when I experience the desire of getting a relationship, because when I experience the desire as the thoughts in my mind, is like I begin to move as quickly as possible to get sure of not loosing the energetic charge, therefore I see that when I asked this girl I was actually reacting in far to the experience of desire, fear of loosing the energetic experience within me, that I wanted to intensify and control, through controlling the relationship and the experience within me "apparently", not realizing that I was already controlled by my own desire, and within that I see that love is actually fear, love is the disguise of fear
I guess that the first relationship with the word love comes from my relationship towards my mother, as that was my first relationship with another human being and she was the first person with who I used and related that word.
Therefore I learned that word and I didn't understood what it meant in the beginning, and the way that I established my relationship towards my mother that comes from the very definition that I placed in such words, because it is through the definition of the word that I established a relationship with my mother, for example: I love my mother.
What is interesting and that I didn't consider before is the fact that every action that I did towards my mother and every action that she did towards me, became part of the definition of the word love, and how I established my relationships towards other people come also from the acceptance of such definition within myself and how I project it into the world.
My first assumption of the word love: What I am experiencing with only pronouncing the word love, is a positive energy within my stomach, and with that comes the idea that the word is something that is good, because it makes me feel that way, it makes me feel good.
I have multiple pictures of persons that I met in my life, the definitions that I have placed over such relationships, the total definition of the word love, and it is inevitable to also remember the conflicts and the mistakes that I made or the things for which I blame those people, and it is inevitable to think that the relationships of all of this definitions of hate, or blame, or anger, also comes from the definition of the word love, because I have expected from others, such manifestation as that definition and when I don't have it, I create this multiple manifestations of hate, anger, blame, sadness and so on, then the very existence of love is dependent of an emotion that sustains such construct, which is the emotion of fear, I mean, that is where the fear of loosing relationships manifest.
I forgive myself for not accepting and allowing myself to realize that my fear of loosing relationships is actually fear of loosing the energetic emotional charge, and the creation of other experiences is the justification that I placed to not stop the energetic emotional experience, because it is really quite absurd when one allows oneself to hear the justifications that one say to oneself, it is like: "what the fuck am I saying?" I mean it is really unnecessary to make a drama around of a situation that is quite absurd
I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to ask to this girl if she wanted to be my girlfriend so that I were able to have the energetic emotional experience within me of love
I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to say I love you to my mother so that I were able to maintain her happy with me, because that is what she wanted to hear from me and I had to say it back to her to maintain her happy
I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to use the word love, because I knew that I were able to manipulate the people with such word, because I knew that it means something special in the mind of the people and then I did is that I tried to manipulate the symbol within my ind, and the mind of others so that I were able to get the energetic emotional charge as the thoughts of what I want, need and desire
I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to feel as if I don´t have any value if someone don´t love me or appreciate me, and that apparently I require of someone to love me and to appreciate me, to be able to love myself and to appreciate myself
I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to want other people to love me and to appreciate me, so that I am able to ove and appreciate myself because now apparently "I worth something"
I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to desire to have a relationship because by having a relationship apparently now I own something and I have something that is of value and worth
I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to want to go into a relationship to have control of the energetic experience within me that I apparently am able to own by owning a relationship or owning someone that allows me to have and experience the energy that I want.
Love is energy, and that energy is the same energy that my mother needed and required to be able to fulfill her personality of being a mother, because apparently, when her personality was not supported, she stopped being a good mother and I was a "bad son" and you know, there is no practical movement of that experience of love, only the sustaining of personalities, and this is amazing in regards to the point of relationships, because as I said, I remember the things that I did wrong or where is it that "I fucked it up", because it is through such memories and relationships that I begun to form and mold the way in which I would talk with the people and approach the people, everything to have that point of desire fulfilled, and you know, manipulation – control, I justified my participation in such bullshit to have my fucking relationship experience.
I forgive myself for allowing myself to fear to make the same mistakes that I did on previous relationships because I have wanted to manipulate the result and the outcome of new relationships through creating this point of fear to apparently prevent myself of making the same mistakes
I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to believe that by using fear I was going to protect myself from doing the same mistakes, because I didn't really saw the person, I was just looking for my energetic experience of love and so on, and therefore what happened was that I disregard completely the other being by thinking that they are exactly the same in every way.
I will continue on the same blog
Till the next joke…

The next generation
Okay, so everyone's been impressed by now by how much Obama inspired youthful activism in the 2008 election cycle. In making our movie, "What's the Matter with Kansas?" we spent a fair amount of time with young conservative activists who were equally impressive. So check out this kid at last week's Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC.) He's profiled in today's New York Times.
Whether you find his speech substantive or not, it's amazing to see such poise in someone so young. We've seen this consistently: conservatives seem to beat the pants off of liberals (or at least Democrats) when it comes to having the courage of their convictions.


text: Pharmaceutical Copywriter By Sandy Baker A career as a pharmaceutical copywriter can be rewarding and provide regular work, if you have what it takes. Just as other copywriting careers help to sell products and services, the pharmaceutical counterpart is helping drug companies to sell their products. This includes anything from over-the-counter medications to herbal remedies and even prescription medications. Pharmaceutical Copywriter Careers In this particular industry, the pharmaceutical copywriter who is experienced and skilled will find a good number of jobs available to them. Because there is not as much competition in this field as in others, more openings are available. Even in economic downturns, these companies need to promote their products and in turn, positions here may be available. Related Articles Becoming a Freelance Copywriter Copywriter Job Description Freelance Copywriter Rates Many pharmaceutical copywriter positions are work-from-home positions. Many of them are also independent contractor positions, where you will work for the company on a per-project basis, and not as an employee. Some larger companies do employ these individuals to handle marketing campaigns, online campaigns and print publications on a regular basis. These are often full time jobs for those who have a proven background in the industry. Freelancers in a pharmaceutical copywriter position can make up to $100 an hour or more, depending on experience. Many start at $45 an hour. For those working full time, most make up to $75 an hour. There is room for promotion within companies. Many who do work with a company on a full-time basis may be able to move up to management positions and make considerably more per hour. Rates vary depending on location, the company and the amount of experience the copywriter has. What the Job Entails The day-to-day job of a pharmaceutical copywriter involves taking a pharmaceutical product and finding a creative and unique way to deliver a message regarding it. Often, these projects are information based, providing the public with information about what the drug is or what it does. Yet, it is up to the copywriter to take a rather dull subject and breathe life into it. The job often entails finding a way to make something that's boring, interesting. The job includes a wide range of activities. The copywriter must: fully understand the product being written about understand the benefits of the product know the risks of taking the product interview and write about patient experiences with the product speak with doctors regarding the use of the product investigate claims against the drug write sales copy for the company assist in marketing campaigns in all forms work hand in hand with the company's executives to sell the product in a way that works for them. These are only some of the day-to-day jobs of a full time copywriter in this field. Expect the company you work with to set specific goals and work requirements for you, as each position is different. Finding a Job as a Pharmaceutical Copywriter Regardless of if you are looking for a full time job as a copywriter or would like to work freelance, finding a job will be the most challenging aspect. Be sure you have the qualifications needed, which often includes some copywriting experience, a degree in marketing or similar qualifications. Many of these jobs are available online. Freelance copywriters can find employment advertised through various online forums. Using job boards and freelance web sites can hrlp an individual with qualifications to find the specific employment they are looking for. SimplyHired.com provides copywriting positions in the pharmaceutical genre specifically. These are full time and part time positions, both employment and freelance, as they are available. Yahoo! Careers also provides regular listings for copywriters in this field. Consider signing up for their free alerting service to let you know when positions are open. Monster.com is one of the largest resources for both freelance and full time employment positions. They regularly have a list of pharmaceutical copywriter, medical copywriter and junior/senior positions available in this field. Finding employment within this field often requires regular searching. For those who will be telecommuting, having experience and contacts with local pharmaceutical companies can also be helpful.

|Import of vehicles should be restricted
|Tuesday, 23 September 2008
Traffic congestion tackled
Participants of different walks of life in a discussion Saturday urged the government to ban the import of transports for private use in the country to ease the problem of traffic congestion in the capital. They also proposed to keep the roads of the capital free from any obstacles by restricting the movement of private transports and parking of vehicles on the city roads. The tough demand for banning the import of transports was made following a surge in their imports. The city dwellers are facing the severest ever traffic jam in the capital this year. One of the major causes of this situation is that on an average 50 new vehicles are coming to the street everyday worsening the crisis. 25 thousand small vehicles have been imported over the last eight months through the Chittagong Port where over 5 thousand vehicles are awaiting clearance. One thousand more vehicles are expected to reach the port before the Eid. This huge inflow of imported vehicles are resulting from the relaxation of the import policy by the commerce ministry. Moreover, at least five thousand more CNG auto rickshaws along with some new taxicabs are set to come to the streets of the capital soon. This continued influx of small vehicles to the streets of Dhaka and Chittagong are sure to aggravate the traffic congestion in these two cities and make movement of the pedestrians difficult. Traffic congestion is a major problem gripping the people in the capital city as this kills huge time of them everyday. This problem is becoming complicated as the city is growing fast, the pressure of commuters is mounting on the roads and the number of vehicles is increasing. Lack of well-planned efforts by the successive governments to ease the traffic congestions in the city has aggravated the crisis. The government is planning to implement the Strategic Transport Plan for ensuring an integrated, efficient and disciplined transport system in and around Dhaka. But its implementation will take a long. Meanwhile, the traffic congestion in the city has reached an unbearable stage and it should be resolved immediately. For this, activities between DCC and traffic department should be integrated, traffic rules should be implemented strictly , and violators of the rules should be seriously dealt with.

The Mark Cooper era begins with a loss but there were a lot of positive points to take from the game.
Whilst we`re still looking for that elusive first away win in the Championship and although we`re rooted to the bottom of the Championship with a gap developing between us and those clear of the relegation zone, Cooper will know that on another day we could have at the very minimum taken a share of the spoils.
The starting eleven had a familiar look to it apart from the defence. Cooper had obviously decided that his best four would include New boys Griffiths, Bennett and the seemingly out of favour Lee along with Zakuani.
The home side got off to the better start, in front of a crowd in excess of 25,000 with Camara looking the most likely to open the scoring. Posh were restricted to one long range effort from Boyd before Ched Evans crashed a shot against the bar that bounced down, whether it was over the line or not I`ll let you all decide.
Posh looked as if they`d got to half time all score but the dangerous Camara was to have the last laugh. With three minutes to go to the break Ward and Walker combined to provide a chance for Evans, Lewis saved the initial shot but couldn`t stop Camara from netting the rebound.
Returning for the second half Posh got stuck in and a Griffiths ball into Boyd should have at least resulted in making their keeper work. Instead Boyd couldn`t connect and things were to get worse for our record consecutive appearance maker when he was to miss a penalty.
It came after Davies had upended Mackail-Smith in the box and the miss was to prove costly. Posh continued to push forward but couldn`t capitalise on their good approach work by applying the finishing touches in the box.
Another defeat, we`re still bottom but we`ll be there next Saturday, at London Road, when Middlesbrough pitch up, won`t we?
Sheffield United 1 Posh 0

I finally got my hot sticks to work! I just wasn't leaving them in long enough I think. But any way, they give amazing curl, the exact same as if you slept in rollers over night.
blouse gap
shorts thrifted
shoes urbanog
purse from my trip to italy
The work out kick is still going strong. I've only skipped one day of The 30 Day Shred, but it was because I wasn't feeling well, so I think that's ok. I also tried doing the workout video and running yesterday, whew that was rough, but I made it!
I hope you all are having a fantastic Wednesday!
