I have gone on and on about this topic in particular for the better part of 5 years and see so many different arguments on both sides that made me want to talk about this again on this newly revised blog. First I am a proponent of doing the right thing and that being said when I talk to different companies about what their focus is around DR it is not focused on tape. When I talk to companies and CIOs about long-term retention of data, tape comes up for storage of data offsite but then gets pushed to the side when mentioning things like object storage with WORM technology and geo-redundancy at pennies per GB. Now I know that there are awesome stories about how data was recovered from tapes from the 60s and 70s like the Apollo 11, 12 and 14 missions from a donated IBM 729 Mark V tape drive but still think that all the money, research and testing that went into how these tapes were written to and cared for are the keys to how this recovery was possible. Now flip to current date and the cost of doing this in today’s IT environment is more hassle than it’s worth. New technology does not always trump the old way of doing things but there is a point at which you need to evaluate how we treat and store data. If tape is an absolute must, then I ask why and is it because of the safety of storing this data in an offsite vault for long-term archival or is it more compliance? If I store data on disk and it is enterprise disk packed into an appliance that uses a battery backed up RAID controller with sufficient cache that can replicate to an offsite location that is also then replicated again for a triple down on how many times the data is stored and in different regions, would you feel safe about storing your data on disk? If I then have the ability to fail over and leverage this solution in an HA (High Availability) fashion with automation of where the data is being backed up to (in other words, if one site appliance fails the other picks up with little to know configuration change), would you consider moving away from tape? How about cost… Triple down on data sounds costly but with the right solution it can be very cost-effective. Take a hybrid approach to managing this data where you own ½ the solution fully on site with offsite public cloud options where I can leverage economies of scale at a low monthly cost. Or even build your own private cloud with cost effective appliances getting the cost down below tape and offsite storage of tape while giving you the speed of disk and ultrafast recovery times improving IT efficiencies. Couple either of these options and more with object based geo replicated storage and we now have a way to store long-term data at pennies per GB and have your data safe for decades. Ok, ok… I’ve gone on and on about disk based solutions but what about tape. Well tape is not dead, not yet at least. I know I use one right now as a coaster… Well all joking aside, tape is not dead and there are several folks who would agree with me on this. Check out the Storage Expert’s LinkedIn group and search for tape is dead. You’ll find quite a few different views and all valid, well most of them anyway. The key thing here is do the right thing for your organization, look at all the facts (don’t listen to the FUD), line up the costs, and make the informed decision .vs. sticking with a technology just because you have always done it that way. In summary, tape is not dead and will not go away for my guess another decade or so but it is slowly going away from what most people use this technology for. Think archive of government data… well there I go saying government and we all know the motto “if it ain’t broke fix it till it is” but this is a viable solution for tape. For now tape is still going to remain in the market but for how long one can only guess. ← What does Hyper-Converged mean to me?

distracted and will get more done. No more restlessness and nervous energy. – Breaks every once in a while are invaluable. Say once an hour. It is best to get up and move about to loosen up the joints. – Get some sunshine outside at lunch. SLEEP WELL to Be Productive The sleep equation is very straightforward: poor sleep equals low productivity. Conversely, adequate sleep brings better judgment, brilliant decision-making skills and faster reaction times. Final result? A wholesome executive who will break long-standing productivity records, one after another. 79. Relax in Bed to Fall Asleep As soon as you jump into bed, try to inhale through your nose for about 4 seconds. You then slowly exhale out via your mouth for 7 -8 seconds. Do it for 5-10 minutes. This breathing activity engages your abdominal and chest muscles easing tension and puts your mind in a relaxed state, eventually nudging it to sleep. Check: 6 More Ways to Sleep Better Even If Your Stress Is Eating You Alive 80. Stay Away From the Artificial Blue Light at Night If you are not aware of it, the light emitted by your favorite, must-useore could be “stealing” your sleep. This light is technically called artificial blue light. It’s because this lighting confuses your natural sleep-wake cycle by creating an impression of daytime during the night. Our advice? Stay away from these devices for at least one hour before going to bed. You will experience sound sleep and wake up refreshed and pumped up for a new workday. Read: How Blue Light Affects Your Sleep. 81. Use Melatonin Supplements Melatonin is a hormone that induces sleep. But, sometimes, your schedule is in disarray or your body doesn’t produce enough of it to help you get those coveted Z’s. Fortunately, melatonin is readily available as a supplement and can fill in the gap. Please read our melatonin for sleep post to learn how these godsent supplements work. Rest Well Before a Busy Business Day With Melatonin! 82. Experience Daylight to Sleep Well at Night Exposing yourself to natural light during the day is one of the best ways to kick insomnia to the curb. According to one study, doing so helped participants fall asleep 83% faster. In another study, older adults who enjoyed 2 hours of daylight would out sleep those who didn’t by 2 hours besides lifting their sleep efficiency to 80%. Lesson? Sunlight is your buddy! Get Another 19 Simple Sleeping Tips That Will Make You Sleep Like a Baby 83. Never, Ever Work Before Bedtime Some of us are sometimes overwhelmed and carry work home. Ooh, please stop. When you take assignments home and plug away at them, falling asleep becomes an uphill task because your work worries are still fresh in your mind. Moreover, the aforementioned blue light effects are still stalking your body. Please believe me. Resisting the temptation to bring tasks home will make you a better executive (and person) in the long term. Read: Bad Sleeping Habits That You Must Shun 84. Test Yourself for Sleep Apnea Sleep apnea is yet another sleep disorder that can be potentially serious. The question is: could sleep apnea be dampening your efforts to sleep like a log? Well, you can tell by testing yourself for symptoms. 1. Do you struggle with your breath while sleeping (it repeatedly stops and starts)? 2. Do you snore loudly? 3. Do you wake up feeling drained even after oversleeping? Well, you could have sleep apnea if you have any of these symptoms. A visit to a Health Care Professional(HCP) would be recommended in this case. The HCP may give you a suitable sleep apnea testing device and assess your breathing and/or blood oxygen level to confirm. Either way, don’t panic since numerous natural sleep apnea remedies exist. You should soon be sleeping well and waking up raring to go. EAT HEALTHY to Increase Productivity Our bodies are like finely-tuned machines; and as we all know, most machines need fuel. For our bodies, this fuel comes from what you eat. For this reason, you must observe a proper dietary routine. Scientific studies have shown that some foods can potentially upgrade your brain capacity and critical thinking function. We also know that certain nutrients influence you and can strengthen our problem solving ability. The bottom line: the answer to the question of how to be productive could lie in tweaking your eating habits. Start with the following: 85. Never, Ever, Skip Breakfast Breakfast is essential for supplying the brain with the energy it needs for sustained concentration and problem-solving during work. Make it a habit to take a healthy executive breakfast to improve your productivity and stay alert all day long. The elements of a healthy executive breakfast include proteins, fiber, complex carbs and healthy fats. Take a Look at Our Healthy Breakfast Proposals! 86. If You Don’t Have Time for a Normal Breakfast, Drink It! Work is unpredictable and sometimes it’s practically impossible to spare time to enjoy a heavy breakfast. Yet, you don’t want to ignore your early morning meal because skipping your breakfast limits your energy levels. This is the time to take a liquid breakfast. The good news is that, for example, a green smoothie will still supply all the nutrients you need to get your day going and increase productivity. Have a look at our 5 Quick and Easy Energy Drinks Proposals for a healthy breakfast. 87. Add Salmon, Leafy Greens and Avocados into Your Diet We all understand that processed starches, such as sugary cereals, aren’t the ideal fuel sources. Foods like avocado, on the other hand, balance your sugar levels, so you retain your mental edge through the day. Likewise, salmon positively impacts your mental health because of its omega-3 ingredient. Lastly, leafy greens supplement your vitamin K reserves in your brain and help your cognitive functioning. Overall, these foods help revamp your memory, focus and cognitive performance. Find Oud More Foods That Keep You Focused and Productive 88. Put Sugar-Free Chewing Gum in Your Pocket Chewing sugar-free gum provides you a brain boost, thereby boosting your productivity. Indeed, you’re likely to attain faster reaction time since chewing pumps more blood to the brain. 89. Avoid Fast Food and Highly Processed Food at Night Back to processed foods. I know that they’re tempting, butburritos and tacos, soup, cookies, cakes and their ilk shouldn’t be on your dinner plate. Otherwise, you’ll rise up feeling sluggish and mentally foggy. Of course, you can guess how the rest of the day will pan out. By contrast, healthy night eating gives you a good morning and helps your productivity. Here’s the deal: We have compiled some healthy night-time food ideas for you to try. Eat Healthy at Night to Have Energy in the Morning! 90. Create a Simple and Healthy Executive Lunch to Increase Productivity Yes, we often really struggle after lunch! Do you know why your mind unfailingly enters into a lull after lunchtime? Well, it’s mainly because the food you eat for lunch redirects blood from your mind to aid the digestion process. Shifting to lighter healthier) lunches could solve this early-afternoon sleepiness. For example, a single-serve pack of tuna contains 12 grams of protein along with omega-3 fatty acids plus vitamin D. It would be thus very intelligent to store packets of tuna at your desk. Also, stock broth-based soups that are low in sodium and contain combination of beans, carrots, spinach and other vegetables to add protein and fiber.

No, this post isn't some rant about why vendor prefixes are bad for the industry, and it isn't about me declaring a blanket boycott. I'm just done writing them myself because I now have tools that do the task for me. Tangentially, Prepros now has a pro version, which is only $19 and adds a few handy features, including live refresh for all file types, multi-device testing, remote inspect, etcetera. Really, for that price, it is worth it to upgrade to pro just to support the project, even if the added features aren't something you particularly need. I haven't found any documentation on how to inlcude the prefixing… I found the option in the project settings, but how do you format the comma separated list for different browsers? I tried putting ie8, ff, safari, chrome in the input field, restared, reloaded but havent seen any effect so far. @Rasmus, All you need to do is check the "Auto Prefix CSS" box in the SASS Options tab. Then, when your SASS file compiles, it should automatically spit out prefixes wherever necessary in your CSS. Super easy.

Swaffham set to share £230,000 district council funding Swaffham is set to receive a share of £230,000 of district council funding to help enhance and promote the town. The cash will be allocated to a Market Towns Initiative developed by Breckland Council officials, after the scheme was backed by the authority’s ruling cabinet on Monday. The scheme is intended to fund projects that will improve the economic, social and cultural offering of the district’s five main towns. The initiative has already helped to pay for improved signage around town centres, enhanced flower beds, and community Christmas events. The exact amount that will be allocated to Swaffham is not yet clear. A report published ahead of the meeting said the council was not proposing to divide the funding between the towns. It insisted a “district-wide approach” was needed to ensure the greatest value for money. But Paul Claussen, the authority’s executive member for place, said afterwards: “Market towns are a key feature of the local landscape and play an important role in our district’s economy. “As is the case in many parts of the country, Breckland’s high streets and town centres are facing real challenges, such as competition from out-of-town shopping centres, nearby cities, and online shopping. “I’m pleased to see considerable funding being put behind this initiative and a commitment for Breckland to work with its partners to further promote and protect our market towns.”

PP John Prettie and K Gilbert Howie at meetings again in the near future. We are missing their smiling faces! Thank you to K Stew and PLG Linda van Aalst for offering to take Builder notes. Have you returned your club survey yet? The Builder for January 5th, 2017 K Paul Matthies and PP Gord Harris greeted 18 Kiwanians and 2 guests at our luncheon held at the Best Western Inn on the Bay. We were pleased to welcome a prospective new member, Tim Sobie along with our speaker, Lance Thurston CEO of the Grey Bruce Health Services. President Susan Davey asked PP Andrew Drury to lead us in the Objects of Kiwanis. K Ted Horton was the fortunate lucky number draw winner. Kiwanian John Cottrill introduced our speaker, Lance Thurston. CEO Lance gave us a very informative talk about the current status of Grey Bruce Health Services (GBHS), present day challenges, and future needs. Their annual budget is 185 million dollars. GBHS is projecting a $17 million deficit by the end of 20/20 unless the means are found to turn things around. An additional stress is the fact that 75% of management and 50% nursing staff are due to retire within the next five years. GBHS CEO Lance Thurston The Owen Sound Hospital has reduced the number of beds from 400 to 160 and is utilizing the space for other hospital services. The GBHS Board is hoping to have solutions to their deficit problems by the end of March 2017. The Province does not fund the capital needs of hospitals and in Grey Bruce alone the needs are $10 million annually and this is growing.  The gap for capital renewal is a constant financial pressure. K John Cottrill thanked Lance on behalf of our club. President Susan led the club in a moment of silence for Kiwanis Stu Luckhardt, who had passed away earlier this week. K Stu was a 23 year member of our club. He enjoyed volunteering with the club for many years before ill health made that impossible. We also remember PLG John Hamilton's wife Barrie Kiwanian Shirley who succumbed this week as well. K Russ Pierson read a letter addressed to our Club from Santa expressing thanks for our Christmas contributions to the community. We were able to support Santa's efforts for several local families who received a bounty of gifts for parents and children alike. Thank you to a very special lady for doing this each year! Happy Days! Happy Dollars! K Jim McManaman got over his Christmas tree task by enjoying his new Jetta and travelling to visit relatives in Halifax over the holidays. K John Cottrill also chose Nova Scotia for his trip. PPPE Don Sweatman gladly paid a toonie to stay home and have relatives visit Karen and him instead. PP Paul Strimas paid two toonies to announce his 6th grandchild, a boy. PP Andy Drury was pleased to donate to our coffers as he announced his engagement to Karen Conley.

But rather than letting another day slide by without acknowledgment, Bill and Wendy try to rectify the situation by calling the listener’s daughter. Plus, a family in south suburban Lynwood made a surprising discovery Saturday night when they returned home and found a helicopter wheel hanging from their ceiling. Yikes.

With a Security Awareness Startup, everyone in your organization gets interactive insight into awareness in the area of IT security. In addition, employees already become aware during the process of which behaviors are essential (the so-called key security behaviors) in order to successfully minimize the risk of data leaks. tools for changing awareness and behavior by means of modes of communication. In 2017, the Dutch Data Protection Authority (AP) received more than 9,000 reports of data leaks. The actual number is probably much higher. Many of these data leaks can be traced back to erroneous actions or lack of knowledge on the part of employees. Because of the need for faster access to company data and more intensive exchange of data with external parties, data management processes are more complex and less transparent for employees, making them more vulnerable to data leaks. When an organization is hit by a data leak due to faulty use, hacking, malware or ransomware, the consequences are huge. The most important item of damage may not be merely the data recovery costs but there is also damage to reputation, loss of productivity, fines and the loss of customers. Phishing email test: a phishing email is sent to (a segment of) your employees, which we use to monitor whether they click on the ‘malicious’ link. Awareness focal points: based on the results and best practice knowledge, focal points will be jointly determined. Employee workshops: we organize a maximum of 5 (remote) workshops in which, among other things, Traxion discusses the focal points with a maximum of 15 employees at a time, for example by presenting dilemmas. Identifying and translating key security behaviors: from the results of the workshops, Traxion distils company-specific and critical security behaviors. These so-called key security behaviors are then translated in such a way that they can easily be used in all kinds of communications. Traxion continuously supports organizations in keeping their employees’ data protection awareness up to date and increasing it. The solution par excellence for organizations that understand that optimal data protection is an interplay among people, business processes and technology. Traxion can offer you a security awareness on-call subscription which allows you to determine yourself which elements you wish to purchase and at what point in time. With the ‘pay what you use’ management contract, you have insight into how much has already been used and what you can still call upon. You can adjust this the whole year through and it guarantees that you always receive and use the latest best practice knowledge, focused on the contemporaneous threats prevailing.

Vlad Gansingen -. Isaychev prevailed when getting the better of a six-strong breakaway group in a dash for the finish after a day's raced staged in continuous rain. This was the 26-year-old's first stage victory in his fifth season. He was part of a group that broke away from the peloton after eight kilometres. They quickly pushed clear with a 10-minute cushion and remained clear for the entire stage. Business Directory </s> Gallo Images There is a new chant starting to swell from the hearts of Stormers fans at Newlands. And it’s all because of a blockbuster feature called Siya Kolisi. But now Kolisi has added another few bars to the music at Newlands. Kolisi has been a hit at Newlands ever since he came on for Schalk Burger in the first match of the season against the Hurricanes. In that match, he scored a try from a lineout drive, and from there, it has been all good times for the 21-year-old. In every match he has driven players back with his huge hits, and it has taken at least two men to bring him down when he has ball-in-hand. And then there was that fantastic inside offload to set up Bryan Habana’s sensational try against the Bulls at Loftus. The Stormers fans just love it, and during the last few matches at Newlands, a chant of “Koli-i-i-i-si” has broken out whenever he touches the ball. “Yes, I do hear it and it gives me goosebumps! It motivates me to play harder and run harder,” Kolisi told the Cape Times this week ahead of tomorrow’s Super Rugby semi-final against the Sharks. Playoffs rugby is invariably tight, with defence, goal-kicking and good discipline the key factors. The Stormers have had the best defence in Super Rugby for the last three seasons, so they will be confident of being able to keep out a rampant Shark attack, led by Springbok wing JP Pietersen. Fleck, though, feels that the Stormers have some of their own big guns on attack, and that, coupled with the superb defence, could be a lethal combination for the Cape side. “These games are tight – it’s all about parity upfront, and which defence holds out the most. We are tough to beat at home and our defence has served us so well. But it’s a game of few opportunities in a semi-final, and we definitely have that X-factor in the backline who can pounce on opportunities,” he said. “We know that we have that at our disposal, and we are very confident in knowing that we can score tries when needed. We put defences under pressure, and we are going to have to do that against the Sharks defence, which I thought was brilliant against the Reds. We know that we have a very strong defence, but that defence should also allow us a few opportunities on attack.” Now all we can do is wait to see whether they will be chanting in Cape Town or New Zealand next week ...

Kelli, is a girl from Los Angeles, who should be studying law at UCLA, instead she cashes out her tuition and her living expenses to pursue a serious career in dance and hide it from her family who live probably somewhere in the midwest. Her father's friend's son is getting married in a traditional Indian wedding in India. You def get a sense both families are pretty upper middle class. Kelli begrudgingly goes with her parents and younger sister. Once she arrives to India, she is met with the groom's family, whose daughter is her age and who she danced with back in the states and is definitely raised Indian-American. As wedding starts to begin, she meets a handsome Indian man who is there to entertain guests and choreograph dance shows. Later in the movie we find he comes from a small rural village in India. He came to India to pursue his dreams to be a part of the Bollywood dance industry. He has 100% support from his family, living paycheck by paycheck and has nothing to lose, meanwhile Kelli is someone who has a lot to lose: her family (especially their approval) and the possibility of failure. Law school in the back of her mind, is obviously the mature alternative. So what is this girl to do? This is where their romance gets interesting, this strange meeting of two unlikely people and this is why this dance movie isn't really just a dance movie. I was in middle school when "Save The Last Dance" came out and that was a fun classic. This movie has a little bit of Linklater's "Before Sunrise", "West Side Story" and "Romeo+ Juliet" ... I really liked the film.. I didn't read up much on the film but thinking back I found it special. It's different and it takes you to the beautiful country of India which I indeed will visit after seeing this film. I encourage anyone with an open mind and heart to watch this one.

The first task was to audio/video monitor two partially underwater caves. The two sites are remote and hard to reach both by land and by sea. This surveillance has scientific aims. The third task was a data collection about the "use of the sea". The managers were interested in understanding the habits of commercial operators (mostly scuba centers and small fishing gears) in the area. Communication infrastructures are poor (poor cell phone network coverage outside the village). Sea-bottom is sandy in the area, with depths ranging from 0 to -250m in the area. The area is beautiful and has frequent Cetacean and Turtle sightings. A standard survey was conducted prior to any feasibility study. Digital mapping data were acquired. After several tests we decided to offer the installation of two special videocameras in the caves, linked to a base station via a long distance wireless ethernet link. The video signal is digitized using a vieo server and then loaded over the ethernet link. A few bounces are necessary to reach the lighthouse from the monitored positions and from there the municipal office, at the end. At the office the video streams are received and possibily recorded when necessary. The lighthouse as seen by one of the monitored caves. The network shown as an animated image. At the lighthouse were installed two motorized PTZ cameras, the ethernet radio link was relayed and the acoustic monitoring system was prepared.

Superstar Rajinikanth was reportedly hospitalized for a day (February 22), Chennai. Reported as a 'routine health check-up', the Enthiran actor was seen leaving the hospital later in the day after being admitted early in the morning. Looks like all his frequent travel to Malaysia and other places, as a part of his shooting for upcoming flick Kabali, had drained substantial amount of energy, leaving the sexagenarian in a spot of bother. But the biggest superstar of South India is expected to resume work after resting for a couple of weeks, as advised by the well-known nephrologist, Dr. Ravichandran, according to a report. By the second week of March, the 65 year-old-actor will join the sets of Shankar's 2.O (Enthiran 2) to feature in the important fight sequence, that will have him locking horns with Akshay Kumar. Rajinikanth is also expected to finish dubbing for Kabali, which is now in its post-production stage. The Pa Ranjith directorial may release in the month of May.

The Giant of Discouragement (2 of 5) by Jeff Schreve A story is told about the Devil. The Devil was having a yard sale. He had his tools on display. He had a high price on pride, on arrogance, on laziness, on envy and jealousy and bitterness. He had one tool that had a sign that said, "Not for sale." They asked the Devil, "What is up with that? Why is that tool not for sale?" He said, "That is my chief tool. That is my number one tool. I can't get rid of that one. That is the tool called discouragement. With that tool I can pry open a person's heart and do most anything I want to do."

Add the bulgur to cold water, bring to a boil, and then down to a simmer. Simmer in a covered pan for 12-15 minutes. I love to cook it so that it pops out, a little like popcorn, and is very moist like oatmeal. After it is cooked thoroughly, add the dried fruit, seeds, and nuts…however much you want. A handful of each, perhaps. It’s your recipe now. Add spices if you want. Then, put it in a cute little bowl and drizzle it with plenty o’ syrup. I must admit I used honey, but brown rice syrup, corn syrup, or maple syrup would all work very well. Serve hot! Leftovers can be refrigerated, preferably without the syrup on top. Eat leftovers within a couple days. Yum.

13 is a taboo table number in the restaurant world. But considering their location (street no.13), Snask decided to work with the owner to capitalize on this quirk throughout their brand. While their interior design is clean and warm, their mark has an intentionally stark and almost hollow, minimalist aesthetic. Their use of a monochromatic palette and uncanny, creepy illustrations also gives them a uniquely dark tone to their brand language to the point where it borders surrealism. That said, what makes this establishment shine is the contrast of the dark brand language and the surprisingly colorful dishes served. By going full monochromatic with their visuals, the restaurant is able to really put a spotlight on their ingredients which brings a very human warmth back into the overall atmosphere. A rare and interesting visual treat for sure. Bord 13 Brand & Identity System by Snask.

BOXING: NICK Leahy demonstrated his potential in the ring once again after recording a victory on his second outing for Leamington-based Fitzpatrick Boxing Club. The young boxer travelled down to South East London to face London Dynamo’s Paul Easter and the bout got off to a fast start with both fighters looking to stamp their authority in the opening round. Leahy caught his opponent with a left hand that saw him stumble and the referee administered a count of eight. The bout then resumed with both men back to work and once again Leahy landed the cleaner shots which rocked his opponent once more and another count was given. It was not surprise to see Easter’s corner throw in the towel and withdraw their man during the break. “This was a polished and assured performance from Nick in only his second bout, but he is listening and learning,” said coach Derek Fitzpatrick. Also making the trip to the capital was Mike Dobson who was making his debut for Fitzpatrick ABC against fellow Dynamo boxer Dan Tyler in what proved to be one of the best bouts of the evening. Dobson put his superior skill set against Tyler’s strength and determination but it was the London boxer who was crowned winner. “This was a baptism of fire in the competition ring,” said Fitzpatrick. “But there are so many positive to be taken from Mike’s display.

Top photo: Milo Yiannopoulos speaks at a press conference, on Tuesday, February 21, 2017. Photo by Mary Altaffer AP/Press Association Images Milo Yiannopoulos has a secret he's spent his whole life trying to conceal. It's not his recently uncovered defense of child abuse—a video where he dismisses the "arbitrary and oppressive idea of consent"—which is now rapidly destroying his career, leading to his resignation from Breitbart and the cancelation of both his keynote speech at the conservative CPAC conference and his book with Simon & Schuster. It's not his terrible book of poetry (some lines, from a poem titled "Psychosis Manifest": "My suffering / enables the serpent"). He spends every waking second trying to hide this fact. It's why an adult man who used to dress exactly like the awkward tech journalist he was now swans around in costumes ranging from "Poochie the dog" to "scene-filler from Triumph of the Will." He needs to keep it up forever, because as soon as he stops, people will realize there's nothing to see. Listen to what Milo actually says, beyond all the teenage showiness about how many cocks he's sucked and how great his clothes are. For a brief moment, just after half the world heard him say that "y," he really was everything he claimed to be. And look where that got him. Audiences are fine with racism or misogyny; people were prepared to forgive him for throwing a big online tantrum over a film he didn't like; plenty of stuffy columnists didn't mind him encouraging American college students to inform the immigration authorities on any suspiciously Mexican-seeming classmates. And so he lost his book deal, and his big speech, and his Breitbart post, and he'll probably lose much more besides. For a college to invite a fascist to its campus might just be free expression, but nobody wants to open its doors to someone who thinks the idea of consent is "arbitrary and oppressive." Milo's fanboys—and there are a lot of them, even now, these sad scrawny men whose hairs jostle with pimples across an always strangely damp face—usually have two lines of argument when it comes to their hero. First, he's just trolling. Second, and closely related, any criticism of the man just gives him more attention: iIf it weren't for all the outrage, he'd still be just another sad dweeb reviewing pencils for the Telegraph, and every time you make fun of his flimsy pretensions, you're just helping him get more famous and feeding the vast churning mill of his ego. One of those strange journalistic codes—the same ones that require the redtops to describe any sexual act as a "romp" and the New York Times to mangle all its headlines into syntactic dog food—demands that no newspaper describe Milo Yiannopoulos as anything other than a "provocateur." He's not. Milo has no sense for irony whatsoever; he's far too vain for the long, patient game of saying anything other than what he thinks. Look at his old columns for the Catholic Herald—since deleted, but nothing on the internet is ever really gone forever—and it's all drearily familiar: Protesters are bad, the left are bullies, the media is biased, everyone's mean to me—and they're all delivered without a moment of deftness or play and in the grim throttled tones of any moldering and moribund conservative hack. The second line is at least a little more interesting, if only because the left has somehow been suckered into it. There's a strange taboo that's grown around Milo: Don't write about him—don't even say his name—because every time you do he grows stronger. Milo's supporters tell us that the left created him by disliking him, and we glibly nod along. But what really created him was an American public that treats a private-school accent as if it were mind-control wizardry, and members of a Conservative Establishment so intellectually famished that they'd promote an acrylic-painted mannequin doing its best Hitchens impression as their greatest living mind. There's no point trying to ignore Milo now that he's here; it'd be like a TV station only deciding to stop giving free airtime to Donald Trump once he's already pissing triumphantly from the White House balcony. But it's getting harder to pretend that any mention of Milo's name is only driving his book sales, now that his book is no longer a going concern. Paying attention to Milo—not just lazily agreeing with him that he's ever so daring and ever so dangerous, but really paying attention—has worked. Milo is fading fast: He's with us now but not for long. And soon he can go back to being what he always was: another bloviating dunce obsessed with his own importance, one more whiny voice in the vast chorus of the dull.

Limited Edition Final Fantasy VII Remake Themed Wristwatch Will Cost Up To $2,500 To Own Feb 02, 2020 Kevin J. Kessler 0 comments 330 The good news on this is that people who did not pre-order through Square Enix can still get their hands on this watch. The bad news is, it’s going to cost you a lot more than the game’s signature Gil currency. The watch in question will run you somewhere in the neighborhood of $2,500, plus tax. It is manufactured by Seiko Instruments, and features a case made of stainless steel with a mirrored finish. The watch also has a blue sapphire glass crown that is meant to be inspired by the game’s Materia system. Materia is how the characters in Final Fantasy VII use magical abilities. This is going to be a hard item to get your hands on, as there will be only 77 pieces made per region. Each one comes in a special case and is described as an ideal “centerpiece of anyone’s collection for years to come.” The images of the watch that have been shared are little more than prototypes, with the actual product running the risk of looking different from what was originally shown.

How far do you have to travel every day to reach your office and back home? Whatever the answer, it is not the distance that you travel which affects health, say doctors. Instead, some other factors like the time you take to travel, the mode of travelling and the posture during travel will influence your health. There are many factors on the road that affect your state of `being healthy’ -- the windings routes, undulating surface of the roads, potholes, road humps, etc to name a few. The swaying of the body during journey, the sudden jerks that you are subjected to while going through a bumpy road -- all these may lead to spinal injuries, doctors say. Researchers in Bangalorspondylitis-affected people among the working population who travel through the city roads. Those who travel in autorickshaw and two-wheelers stand a good chance of being affected by spondylitis. These vehicles have only poor shock absorbers, so there is a higher possibility to be hurt while going through bumpy roads. `` I had to travel about one hour to reach my office and the rough travel contributed to back pain and spondylitis. I had to go for a spondylitis ayurvedic treatment three months back. The doctors there asked me to travel in a bus and stand all the way to my office so that the pressure and injury to the spine is only minimal,’’ says Sheela Balagopal, a bank employee in Bangalore.So make sure that you have the right posture during your travel and try to avoid jerks as far as possible.

I really don’t care what they’re called. I just know they’re super yummy! All you need for this homemade candy are Bugles, peanut butter, and microwave dipping chocolate. That’s it! Just fill the Bugles with peanut butter, dip in melted chocolate, and cool. If you prefer a sweeter filling, you can use my Buckeyes peanut butter candy filling inside the Bugles.

[…] Value of Grit Greetings Folks, I ran across this blog post by Joe Abercrombie (I always mentally finish his name with "and Finch"). He tackles the […]. Well said Joe. I and lot of others lean more towards gritty fantasy nowadays mainly because we don’t like being treated like idiots. I don’t think it’s because people have become more cynical, it’s due to the environment that we all live in today, like you say. Back in the 80’s and before, people thought differently, there was a need for the all singing, dancing, happy go lucky hero that prevailed against a great evil that didn’t do anything worse than fart in the face of freedom. There was the cold war, so there was always a bad guy out there, afterwoulds, the Gulf war and before then WW2. The media plays a big part too, back then things were a lot more black and white I suppose, there was only usually one or two points of view. The internet, social media, news channels etc let people know everything (well, that we know about). Religion too has had an effect. Back in the 80’s, 70’s etc a lot of the population went to church, sunday school and so forth. Today, as we have become more culturaly diverse and our attitudes towards life, death, science have changed, we are more aware of the grey area around what is seen as good or evil. I would argue that fantasy has not become more gritty as such, just that it more accurately reflects the world we live in. To say that fantasy has become more gritty is to say that the world has become more gritty which isn’t the case, it has always been dark and morally ambiguous. We are just more aware today. All the critiques of ‘gritty fantasy’ need to open their eyes and look at the world. If they want shiny, pretty unrealistic books, then they should read Tinkerbell and Mickey Mouse and stop talking out of their backsides. I’m glad there are authors like you out there Joe, for I can read something without being patronised and read something I can believe in. For me, honesty is the key 🙂 My only objection to “grit” is the word itself. Grit is, as a previous poster said, quite bad in lettuce, or any other food, leading to an overwhelming need to spit. It’s a terrain type, the odd slimy sand mixed into shell roads, the measure of abrasiveness on a sheet of sandpaper. The word has become almost a pejorative itself, and through almost constant overuse of late is in threat of becoming cliché. I’ve seen several uses of the word “grimdark” above. Dunno if I

For just under two years now, a Multitek model 2040XP2 firewood processor has been a key performer for GWP. The Multitek is the first that GWP has ever owned, and it has met all the expectations that Greg had for it after he watched it in action at a trade show. For starters, he explained, it is a "very reliable machine." "I was raised on a farm with my grandparents," said Greg. "Cutting firewood with a chain saw, cutting by hand" was part of life, he explained. "I liked the blood, sweat, rattlesnakes. I just loved being in the woods." The day-to-day at GWP is very satisfying to Greg. "The sense of accomplishment of growing a business" is great, he said. But what he likes best, he explained, is the "social interaction with customers and vendors."

I would have to say my parent’s family holiday home on the east coast of South Africa. It is a small part of the world called San Lameer which has a wonderful golf course, amazing wild life and the warm Indian Ocean. It brings back years of family memories and holidays and is always my happy place. Typical South African male I am most passionate about sport. The biggest sport would be Rugby (Union). A huge Springbok (South Africans nation team) and Lion (The provincial club from Johannesburg) fan. I am a fan of most sports including Football and most recently the NFL. I also play sport, but as I am getting older this is getting less and less. Most I can do now is go for a good run or a round of golf. I have learnt the important of an acquisition to a business. This was something which I had never done before and it was great to be the finance lead of one such acquisition Your favourite memory involving tea: Family tea time at 4pm. I come from a traditional English home and nothing beats 4pm tea. Usually warm afternoons in the swimming pool with mom calling us in for tea. Rooibos is a fan favourite tea in South Africa. The most memorable experience from your career so far: I would have to mention two experiences. The first would be my work across central Africa. Such an amazing experience to visit different countries and learn from different cultures. The second would be the acquisition of Pukka. I was the project lead and it was by far my biggest learning experience. I hope to be able to improve and learn as a finance partner. I also hope I can spend time getting to know the Pepsi culture and make sure I take the positive from both Unilever and Pepsi into my future career.

April 15, 2011 General Legal"only" t. BabyBarista's Law and Peace Launches Soon April 11, 2011 Book Reviews I was most honoured to receive, last week, a review copy of the latest work of one of the grandfathers of legal blogging. Written by accomplished legal author, Tim Kevan, "Law and Peace" will hit bookshelves, both physical and virtual, on 3 May 2011. Having just started reading it, I can report very promising signs so far. I hope it will be as enjoyable as Tim's first masterpiece, BabyBarista and the Art of War, which was first given to me by a friend at my former law firm as a piece of inspiration for legal blogging. I look forward to reporting back more on this book, but for the meantime, I'll leave you with some intriguing blurb and reviews of Tim's other works. WardblawG Mentioned in UK Blawg Roundup #6 I am delighted to have been mentioned in the sixth installation of the UK Blawg Roundup, as written by Brian Inkster of The Time Blawg. In a thoroughly comprehensive review, Brian travels back in time to discuss the early days of UK law blogging (the past), considers the current status (the present) and looks at what is to come (the future)blogging, not just blawging.

Yesterday, eyebrows, "eyeboos". This morning, juice, "doos". She really watches our mouths sometimes and tries to mimic the sounds. She also said her first 2 word phrase a week or so ago ... daddy hum. She was asking me if Daddy was home or coming home or something. Since then, she constantly points out Dada in pictures and any sound we hear, especially at the front door, she says "da da!" She's definitely missing him when he's not here now instead of only being aware of him when he's here. She also does a high pitched "mee" for meow and "oof" for woof. She's had a low grade temp at night on and off this month. I'm hoping it's just been a few little bugs in a row. Maybe the camping trips didn't help. Maybe taking her to the gym daycare in the mornings sometimes (her temp's always down then and she seems fine) wasn't helping her get all the way better either. We went to the doc on Tuesday and turns out she has a sore throat. We've laid low this week. The last two days, she's also had 3 poopy diapers (it's usually 1 or 2 max) and they've been a bit softer with undigested food. Her fever's continued to be up between 100.3-100.6 each night since Tuesday and back down in the morning. The doctor has me keeping a record of her evening temp for 3 weeks so we can see if it's just related to the sickness right now or something else going on. So, a little worried in general about all this, but we'll just wait and see for now. Cam's Aunt Patti sent a huge box of books for Reagan and Aunt Bethany knitted an adorable dress that Uncle Danny brought along with a Dr. Suess book that she loves too. Here she is in the dress checking out her new cool stack of books. She really loves the one where you slide the wheel to find the baby animal to match the mama animal. We lost a bit of sleep the first night in Tahoe, waking up every few seconds to make sure she didn't need another layer or to put her hat back on her (still) bald head. We had plans for 2 nights in Tahoe but decided there was no sense losing sleep again ... we knew she could sleep fine in the tent and we'd already done everything we planned to do - gondola at Squaw for dinner with a view, hiking part of the trail to Mt. Tallac, and a buffet dinner at the top of Harrah's Casino in South Lake Tahoe - but I like buffets! Notice a lot of eating and a little hiking in our plans ... and I wonder why I can't drop the rest of the weight!! Here, we stopped hiking to let Reagan have some fun... little rock climber Good morning ... this fun jumpy bed is still here! Anyway, on Angel Island, our view was fantastic and it was really wild to look at San Francsisco and both bridges and Alcatraz while we sat at a camp site roughing it. We saw tons of Deer (or as Reagan calls them, "Dee") and they were so much less skiddish than usual since they don't have any predators on the island. We also saw lots of birds (Reagan flaps her arms for them). Since Reagan wasn't willing to be in the hiking backpack that long, Cam stayed at camp while she napped in the tent and my Dad and I hiked to the top ... even greater view. It took about 45 min to go up and 30/35 to come back down. Hiking up to camp from the Ferry dropoff point (Ayala Cove) My Dad at the top, Tiburon in the background Our site View of SF from our site (enlarge this or you can't really see SF in background) (it was really cool at night all lit up) Reagan's make-shift high chair ... she only lasted a couple minutes like this, but it was funny :-) Morning hike down to the beach (where we saw a lovely sea lion carcass washed up on shore ... that smelled good!). "So, we sit on this like a chair, huh Grandpa?" Took her a while to go down for a nap, but checking out the iPod & making a few calls on my cell wore her out. As soon as she realized this water spicket was here, it was non-stop "hand-washing" time Heading home ... with less stuff, so we were able to squeeze Reagan into a bike trailer and all ride our bikes down to the ferry. Sooo much faster than the walk up! Here's the happy camper: Ferry ride back to Tiburon Reagan zonks from a tiring weekend Still zonked through half our lunch at Cheesecake Factory We also encountered the "smart" racoons, as the ranger put it with a smirk. We put our food in the food locker thinking it was there to keep food safe ... ya know, like the bear lockers do at yosemite, right? wrong!! They managed to pull 5 bananas, 2 apples, 3 peaches, and 6 hot dog buns through the 1/4 inch gap at the bottom of the food locker door! I am not joking. It certaintly wasn't an easy task ... they obviously struggled based on the insane sounds we heard ... a half shrieky, half growly, really frustrated/mad sound ... we could have swore a pack of lions were fighting outside our tent. We finally heard my Dad unzip his tent (he later told us he sat and contemplated this for a while though) ... and good thing, cause we weren't going out there! :-) ... and he yelled and threw a couple rocks to scare them away. He only saw one racoon ... found it had chewed into the baggie holding the dish sponge. So, he wedged the food locker door shut at the top with a thick stick. There. Now they won't be able to get anything. Ha! That was before the afforementioned feast. After enjoying our bunless hotdogs for lunch the next day, we meant business the second night. They were trying to get serious too... approaching our campsight before it was even dark! One of them was really daring and would come within 10 feet of us. Holy crap, this is war! We wedged a tent stake in the food locker door, wedged a huge log against the front doors so they couldn't be pulled open at all - no 1/4 inch gap this time! - and we didn't store anything on the bottom shelf this time... oh and my Dad rounded up an arsenal of rocks to throw to scare them off. We never heard a peep and everything was untouched in the morning. Ha, we won! Posted by Camelot Blog at 11:16 PM 2 comments: Labels: out and about, vacation Happy Birthday to me! Cam got me an iPod nano, an arm pouch so I can run with it, and a wireless pedometer that tells you your progress on your ipod, both visually and audibly - calories, distance, pace. Then, when you sync with your computer, it logs your workout data and tracks it for you over time. So cool and definitely helping in the motivation department for running! Last weekend, we camped in Tahoe as a practice run for our upcoming Angel Island trip. I'm falling asleep at the computer, so I'll blog separately about that later... oh, and all the chatting Reagan's been up to too. Posted by Camelot Blog at 10:59 PM No comments: She repeated this back to me several times when I said we were going home to see Dada. Posted by Camelot Blog at 7:02 PM No comments: We've been able to discern a word from the strange new language Reagan speaks! She's also started calling us by name and Dada is even Daddy sometimes. She also seems to heading in the direction of weaning from nursing ... which would be good, I was really hoping she'd do it on her own ... I didn't want to force it on her, but was starting to lay down some deadlines in my mind ... 18 mos... 2 yrs ... I wasn't sure. We've been down to 4 times/day (morning, nap 1, nap 2, and bedtime) for a while now and she's almost 100% down to 1 nap a day, so by default, that took it down to 3 times/day (morning, nap, bedtime). Today, however, a real sign that it's becoming less important and needed ... when I was feeding her before her nap, she sat up after maybe 1 minute - literally just over the time it took me to sing Rock-a-by Baby - and put her hand to the side of her face (her sign for "sleepy") while saying "dat" in a long drawn out, tired sort of tone. I promptly stood up, walked her over to her crib while saying night, night, love you, give mama a kiss (she did), have a good sleepy, etc and she did her usual ... sat there, stuck her passy in her mouth ... paused a minute ... then laid down and snuggled teddy bear. and that was it! She really did just want to go to sleep and didn't need to nurse... Crazy!

Change is coming to beauty, including everything from circular systems and AI influencers to value-focused brand strategies and personalization—all with the consumer and climate front-and-center. 1. Beauty Goes Circular During the recent Luxe Pack Monaco event, one name kept popping up over and over in discussions with packaging suppliers: Ellen MacArthur. The retired English sailor isn’t yet a household name, but the foundation that bears her name has become the defining force in the circular economy concept. “” the organization’s site explainsa. “ Whilen materials and sourcing, the Ellen MacArthur circular economy concept is notably process- and design-driven. In fact, during the 2019 Luxe Pack Monaco show, one packaging supplier noted, “We cannot rely on 350 million [Americans] to individually figure out recycling. What we need are better systems, processes and technologies.” A sobering report from May 2019 from National Public Radio’s Morning Editionb feature. In the report, Harrison examines the clamshell packaging encasing a head of lettuce a grocer’s aisle. The shell features the numeral 1 inside a triangle, signaling that the design comprises polyethylene terephthalate (PET). Reporter Rebecca Davis notes that many American consumers incorrectly believe the numeric designations on packaging signal recyclability, when in fact they merely designate the resins contained within. Therefore, a bottle with a “1” designation may be recyclable, while a clamshell made of the same material may not be. Not to mention the particular requirements of local municipal recycling programs. For instance, Henkel’s European group has introduced the EasyD4R-Evaluation tool, which quickly assesses the recyclability of packag e, allowing designers to optimize material combinations by composition and individual weight proportions of components such as basic materials, closures, labels, colors, etc. Meanwhile, L’Oréal to supply the beauty giant with its ultra-pure recycled polypropylene (UPRP), which is produced from technology that utilizes waste polypropylene—often disposed of in landfills—to produce virgin-like polypropylene. PureCycle is establishing a U.S. facility where it will have capacity to recycle 119 million pounds of polypropylene. It is currently evaluating European sites for a second plant. The move was in support of L’Oréal’s Sharing Beauty With All program forall of its new products. In 2018, 79% of new or renovated products had an improved social or environmental profile, per the company. “For L’Oréal, the agreement” says Philippe Thuvien, vice president, packaging and development, L’Oréal Group. “L’Oréal’s ambition is that, by 2025, 50% of the plastics used in our packaging will either be bio-sourced or of recycled origin, which encompasses all plastic types, polypropylene being a major milestone.” Eastman is also focused on the circular economy. In October 2019, the company was honored at Luxe Pack Monaco in the initiative category for its circular economy system. The recognition came as the company presented the next generation of its engineering bioplastic, Tre-va, and its new line of Cristal Reve-l copolyesters, which contain PCR material. The latest Tre-va generation retains its aesthetic and performance qualities but now comprises

First Draft Perfection Syndrome (FDPS) is chronic among "high performing" and "ambitious" high schoolers, those tracked early into gifted and accelerated programs, but can appear within any student population. The causes of this ailment are manifold, but can ultimately be traced back to one root: frequent exposure to "high-stakes" writing environments. I am of the rather unpopular belief that the top ten percent of our student population stagnates, on average, as much or more so than the bottom ten percent. The reason we don't notice is because the evidence for this is in many ways obfuscated by arbitrary "ceilings" placed on high-performing students through the "far left" column of traditional writing rubrics. In short, "honors-level" students learn early in their academic careers what constitutes "A-level" writing, and in turn perpetually write to that level, rarely venturing outside the safety of that assumed paradigm. The fact that these students continue to receive high grades on their writing speaks less to their growth than it does to their systemic conformity and survival instincts. Why attempt something new, they rightfully rationalize, when this safe approach has garnered them the grades they desire? Avoid high-stakes first drafts. While one could reasonably entertain the argument of a few exceptions here, namely timed-writing in AP or standardized test preparation (another post, Matt, another post for another day), presenting first-draft writing as a "high-stakes" assessment is, in both the short- and long-term, a dangerous and philosophically compromising practice. Safe writing is, more often than not, bad writing, as torturous to write as it is to grade. By presenting the concept of drafting as one of many steps along the way to quality writing, we encourage an attitude of risk-taking in an historically risk-averse approach. Tangentially, we reinforce several "soft skills" such as perseverance, pride in craft, and developing a growth mindset. Reward "Functional Failure." Challenge "Fear of Failure." And not just in a motivational poster, lip-service sort of way. Give substantial credit for attempting a skill. Operating under a skill-based model, I give a full seventy percent of the credit for attempting (and, essentially, failing at) a skill. The student's worst (read: first) draft is only thirty percent away from full credit. Getting on the board with that "failure credit" can often serve as catalyst for genuine skill development. Assign Fewer Papers. If our goal is to improve our students' writing abilities, it is counterintuitive to have them write ten different papers, one draft apiece. We know that writing instruction must be recursive and reflective, but we often feel beholden to the flipping of the school calendar. If you must assess a different strand of skills (reading comprehension, for example) through writing, try to do so without assessing the writing skills incorporated. The National Writing Project's Kristen Hawley Turner refers to this as the difference between "tuxedo writing" and "pajama writing." My sophomores only have three required papers: an argumentative paper, literary criticism, and personal/creative narrative paper; yet they're doing as much (if not more) writing due to the expectation of multiple revisions than when I assigned a paper at the end of every class novel. Present Revision as an Essential Step, not a "Bonus Opportunity." When I had subscribed to the one-and-done, high-stakes first submission approach, I often offered the opportunity of revision for a recovery of some points to those students who received low grades. I don't do this anymore, for several reasons: it implies revision is a secondary path for poor writers; it assumes that high-scoring submissions cannot be improved; most tragically, it creates an even broader schism between "good" and "bad" students. Revision must be presented (at the very least) as a step as essential to the process as the initial writing itself, and for all students. To paraphrase English education guru Heather Rocco, genuine differentiation means that we meet every student where they are and push them to be a little better. Allow Students Genuine Choice in Topics. Not every (or, I'd make the argument, any) paper needs to be "superglued" to a course text; all argumentative papers need not focus on the same issue or event. Not to belabor the point, but if our goal is the development of writing skills that are applicable beyond the limits of our class content, it shouldn't matter what topics students are writing about. From personal experience, grading a hundred papers on the significance of Holden's red hunting hat wasn't exactly a sublime experience, and I found myself frequently factoring the validity of their literary interpretations into their writing skills. This generates "fuzzy grades" (which will be discussed in a later post) and is in my opinion the primary cause of evaluative ambiguity in the English classroom. "Genuine choice" does not mean "choose from a list"; it suggests an organic decision framed by the student and potentially reinforced, narrowed, or clarified by the teacher. Providing too much in the way of prompting eir own claim, purpose, or mission for their writing.

Something many new keepers get dismayed or worried about is their tarantula’s tendency to lose hairs on their abdomen, leading them to ask why their spider has developed a bald spot. Tarantulas bald because they either lose urticating hairs or continually rub against something abrasive. Some New World tarantulas can develop a bald spot on their abdomen because this is where their patch of urticating hairs is located. They kick these hairs in an attempt to defend themselves whenever they are feeling cornered or provoked. The more often they kick the hairs away the more apparent the bald spot will become, and it won’t fill back in again until they molt. What are the hairs on a tarantula called? Can all tarantulas develop a bald abdomen? Why does a tarantula kick hairs? Do urticating hairs contain venom? Can you stop a New World tarantula from kicking hairs? Is a bald spot harmful to a tarantula? Will a tarantula always have a bald spot on top of their abdomen? Final Thoughts on Hair Flicking Tarantulas don’t have hair, they have setae. However, in this post, I’ll be referring to them as hairs because it’s far more common to come across people asking questions about “urticating hairs” versus “urticating setae.” The area where a tarantula typically becomes bald is where their patch of urticating hairs is located, which is correctly referred to as urticatious setae or urticating setae. Any tarantula can develop a tiny bald patch underneath their abdomen if the abdomen is constantly dragging because they were overfed to the point of being obese. However, not all tarantulas can develop a bald patch on the top of the abdomen. Not all tarantulas have urticating hairs, and only the species that have abdominal urticating setae will have the ability to develop a bald abdomen due to the loss of urticating hairs (there are five different types of urticating hairs that can be found on the abdomen). Old World tarantulas do not have urticating hairs. With a few exceptions, almost all New World tarantulas have these defensive hairs. This is what the paper, The Urticating Hairs of Theraphosid Spiders published by the American Museum of Natural History, says about urticating hairs being found outside of New World tarantulas (pg 4): “Urticating hairs appear to be restricted to New World representatives of the theraphosid subfamilies Ischnocolinae, Grammostolinae, Theraphosinae, and Aviculariinae, but do not occur on every species. So far as we can determine there is nothing to suggest that urticating hairs are found outside the New World and certainly none was present on the extensive material we examined.” Some examples of NW genera that lack urticating hairs include Psalmopoeus, Dolichothele, and Tapinauchenius. Notice how the aforementioned genera contain species that are known to be teleporters or to have a feisty temperament? This is usually the tradeoff when a tarantula lacks the line of defense that urticating hairs provide. The genus Avicularia possesses urticating hairs, but they don’t flick them. Urticating hairs are intended to be a deterrent for predators. A tarantula will employ them when they feel threatened, which may translate into when they are being handled, if they are accidentally breathed on, manipulated with a paintbrush, being rehoused, or if they are startled during spot cleaning. New World tarantulas also use their urticating hairs as protection against predators while they are molting. They will lay down a molting mat of thick webbing and kick a bunch of hairs onto it so that they are surrounded by a dense patch of them. This is one of the reasons why many keepers use gloves and a mask to perform cage maintenance for NW specimens. The urticating hairs on a tarantula do not contain venom or any other chemical toxin to create the irritation. The hairs are barbed and highly irritating to mammalian mucous membranes and skin. There are different types of hair structures, and each one has a varying configuration and size of these barbs. While there are multiple types of urticating hairs present across tarantulas, the irritation that they all cause is due to the mechanical damage that they create and the subsequent allergic reaction a person may experience. People who are sensitive to them are reacting to the proteins found in the structure of the hairs, not to a chemical that is on the hairs. Some species, like those found in the genus Theraphosa, are known to produce particularly strong reactions. Over time, it’s possible that you may become more sensitive to urticating hairs if you regularly interact with New World tarantulas. This is why I always recommend wearing protection (such as gloves, long sleeves, safety glasses, and a mask) during cage maintenance and any interactions. You cannot completely stop a tarantula from kicking urticating hairs. However, you can minimize the things that provoke them into kicking. For example, if your tarantula is primarily kicking hairs because you are attempting to handle them, then this is a good indication that you should stop doing that. I personally try to keep interactions with my tarantulas to a minimum because I feel that it is best for the spider. This means that I wait to do any cage maintenance until they are in their burrow or under their hide. I also make sure that I remove any live feeders after 24 hours because I have seen my tarantulas flick hairs at crickets that become too much of a nuisance. Usually, this is enough to keep most of them from developing bald abdomens. Unfortunately, some specimens will still startle easily and begin kicking the moment the lid is disturbed. You can’t avoid this. Kicking urticating hairs is a completely normal behavior for New World tarantulas. It is not harmful for them to have a bald spot, and even though it is unsightly, it doesn’t mean that anything is wrong with the spider. However, if the bald spot is due to repeated friction because the tarantula is constantly rubbing on something, then you should take the time to double check that there’s nothing sharp or overly abrasive in the enclosure. Although it may seem like your NW tarantula has a perpetual bald spot, they really don’t. Every time the tarantula molts, the new exoskeleton will have a complete patch of urticating hairs. How long it will take for the tarantula to make their abdomen bald again will vary between individuals. The haggard appearance that some New World terrestrials take on because of their predisposition to flicking hairs is a deterrent for some keepers, leading them to prefer species that lack urticating hairs as a defense. Some specimens are more prone to hair flicking than others, and will immediately begin kicking after they harden up from a molt. For example, my Aphonopelma chalcodes and my Grammostola pulchra almost never flick hairs, so their abdomens don’t end up looking scruffy and bald between molts. In comparison, all of the Aphonopelma marxi that I have will readily flick hair if I start opening the enclosure. My Chromatopelma cyaneopubescens are prolific hair flickers – I rarely see them with a fully covered abdomen. Don’t let hair flicking deter you from keeping popular New World species! Just know that it’s perfectly normal for them to not always look as pretty as they did right after a fresh molt, and make sure you keep yourself safe by minimizing your exposure to the hairs.

November 01, 2005|By TRUDY RUBIN PHILADELPHIA -- The suspense is finally over. The case against f, is much bigger than who outed CIA operative Valerie Plame. It lays bare the White House determination to discredit anyone who punched holes in its rationale for war. The Plame case, in which Mr. Libby is charged with lying to FBI agents and the grand jury by telling them he learned Ms. Plame's name from the press, is a bizarre tale of White House pettiness with enormous ramifications. Ms. Plame apparently was targeted to get back ad White House claims about Iraq's prewar nuclear program. For this reason, she was considered "fair game," in the immortal phrase of President Bush's close aide, Karl Rove, who remains under investigation in the case. To reprise: In February 2002, the CIA dispatched Mr. Wilson to Niger. His task: to investigate the story that Niger had sold uranium to Iraq in the 1990s. The White House wanted to use the Niger story to buttress its casam. Mr. Wilson reported back to the CIA that he doubted any uranium had been sold to Iraq. Independent of his report, the CIA and the State Department repeated on Niger, including British intelligence. In October 2002, CIA Director George J. Tenet warned the president off referring to African uranium in a speech. Yet Mr. Bush cited the Niger claim in his 2003 State of the Union address. By March 2003, the documents on which the Niger charges were based were revealed to be crude forgeries, passed to the CIA by foreign sources. Post-invasion controversy grew over whether theused specious evidence. In May 2003, Mr. Wilson fueled the controversy with leaks to the media about his trip to Niger. On July 6, he published an op-ed in The New York Times . Shortly after it ran, the administration admitted the uranium claims had been mistaken. Then came the retaliation against Mr. Wilson. administration officials" told him that Ms. Plame was behind Mr. Wilson's trip to Niger. The implication was that Mr. Wilson's trip was a case of nepotism. The point of the Plame affair is that a CIA operative was outed to get even with her husband. Special prosecutor Patrick J. Fitzgerald is apparently unable to prove that White House officials knew Ms. Plame was an undercover spy, which could make her outing a criminal offense. It's hard to believe Mr. Libby didn't get this information when he queried the CIA about the Wilsons. It's also hard to believe Vice President Dick Cheney didn't learn Ms. Plame's status when he discussed her with Mr. Tenet in June 2003 and then with Mr. Libby. Mr. Fitzgerald stressed at a news conference Friday that Mr. Libby's alleged perjury has thwarted discovery of which officials did leak Ms. Plame's status. The whole Plame affair is about White House reluctance to provide accurate information on issues linked to the Iraq war. There was plenty of evidence that the Niger uranium story was false before the 2003 State of the Union address. But the White House didn't want or seek to know it. The FBI has yet to complete its investigation into the Niger forgeries. The charges against Mr. Libby imply that the White House is still stonewalling in the Plame case. But, as with the Niger forgeries, the truth is bound to come outaddress is [email protected].

Kitty Foil, a tiny teen actress who had taken one too many trips to the bathroom to “powder her nose,” starts to bemoan how she’s been “box blocked,” which, if you don’t know, is like “cock blocking but with girls.” And, as any multitasking New York woman would, Froelich’s also working on a sequel for Mercury in Retrograde.

I think the check needs to be a bit more thorough: we need to also check all the elements of the list are `np.ndarray` (or at least the first one), according to the warning at least. I added a check for the first element, but here are my thoughts about it: Iterating through the full list doesn't seem helpful - what would you do if half of the list is `List` and the other half is `np.array`? It would still be more efficient to call `np.array` in such a case. It's the same thing for checking just the first element, but at least the check doesn't have the cost of iterating through the full list. Therefore, I think that it's fine to always pass the list to `np.array` without checking it. already fixed on master.

Norman Baker is spending a lot more time with his music these days and thoroughly enjoying it, having closed the door on elected office after 28 years. Every week he presents two shows on nearby Seahaven FM. The first, Anything Goes, covers jazz, blues, western swing, pop, well anything really, between 1920 and 2015. This is also syndicated to Uckfield FM. The second, The Hidden 60s, broadcasts great tracks from that decade that somehow you may have missed. He is looking forward to being back on Rocket FM. Norman’s band, The Reform Club, is presently gigging, and had a new album, Never Yesterday, out in January. This follows his EP, Animal Countdown, out last year. He has also recently released a new book, Against the Grain (Biteback Publishing). Playing The Blues Sunday 23rd October, 9pm – 11pm Sit back and enjoy two hours of the best blues music, from the 1930s onwards. A mixture of acoustic and electric, British and American, with the odd esoteric track thrown in from around the world. Warning: much of this will be on well-loved vinyl so be prepared for the odd snap, crackle and pop

Another straight soldier does gay things in this week’s solo by Active Duty. Logan Lane plays with his own cock and ass in that great session. When the meeting is over Dirk leaves the space for a bit so Logan Lane can get settled. Logan takes all his garments off and sits in the seat where he snatches some lube and begins stroking his limp dick. It doesn’t take Logan long to that enormous cock pleasant and hard and once it is Dirk returns and instructs him to bounce on the bed and keep stroking his trooper meat. His hand slides constantly here and there his stone hard shaft and soon enough Dirk is guiding him to twist that ass over and spread that tight ass of his. Logan Lane has his legs spread and he pulls his ass open uncovering his tight virgin hole. His balls hang as he gradually strokes his dick and once Dirk has had enough of the view he guides him to get settled on the bed so he can give that nut a chance to out. Logan has been hanging tight for this and his balls are full and once he kicks back on the bed his nut comes impacting out everywhere. This guy has some thick cum and void balls which leads him to the showers.

"I heard loud screeching," said Terry Carr, a Walmart employee. "Glass was everywhere. The only thing I could think of was like someone doing a terrorist act." Yright? According to President Trump, every new story and development involving his team’s contacts with Russia is nothing more than a “total witch hunt.” “The Democrats are overplaying their hand,” he said in a statement last night reacting to. “They lost the election and now they have lost their grip on reality.” But who has the firmer grasp on reality — the Trump White House or those who are waving their arms that something here doesn’t seem right? “” USA Today writes. “Emails released tosummer.” "Well, I am," Brady responded. "I don'tomre's a lot of great quarterbacks. There was when I grew up, there are now. The fact that I'm still playing, I love being that. I don't need people to tell me that 'man, you're such and such, or you're better than this.' "I'm happy to see many women sharing certain pastoral responsibilities in accompanying persons, families and groups, and in theological reflection," Francis said, "and I've voiced hope that spaces for a feminine presence that's more capillary and incisive in the church will be enlarged." At this point it's natural to ask: How is it possible to grow the effective presence [of women] in so many ambits of public life, in the world of work and in the venues where the most important decisions are adopted, and at the same time maintain a presence and a preferential attention, which is extremely special, in and for the family? The negotiations have gone on for hours or months or years. A deal is at hand. And now, the other side mentions for the first time that the approval of some previously unremarked person is required, or there is no deal. Could you have prepared for this?Do you have options at this point?Are you, perhaps, the negotiator making the dread announcement that you must respond to a higher power before a deal’s a deal? Your case is complicated; it involves specialized knowledge, and without some help, the judge probably won’t understand it and the jury certainly won’t. Furthermore, your chances of negotiating a settlement depend on getting some degree of shared understanding with the other side of what the facts are. So you’ve hired your expert, and the other side has hired its expert—and now the experts themselves are locked in combat. Could you avoid this next time?In the meantime, what do you do now?

Shuffle up and deal, because the World Series of Poker is coming to a city near you. Or, more specifically, right into your very own home with "Tournament of Champions," Activision's latest entry in the next-gen poker wars. Featuring the most top professionals ever in one game, inside tips and strategies from Chris "Jesus" Ferguson, and a new digimask option that enables Xbox Live Vision Cam owners to map their likeness onto a custom character, "Tournament of Champions" may just be the most comprehensive poker title on the market. But is it really worth the $40 price tag when Xbox Live is offering their own version of the popular table game for only ten bucks? The pace of the single-player is brutally slow, and though the tutorial doesn't tell you this, searching through the menu screen will reveal an option to speed up gameplay, as well as activate the ability to skip through AI decision making. And let me just tell you that it's well worth it. Unfortunately, the AI system isn't quite as impressive the one that was highlighted in this year's other major title, "Stacked." The computer players are overly aggressive, which leads to them winning more hands on lucky flop draws. Equally upsetting is that the pro players seem to follow the same pattern, and while the likeness of the characters is there, their playing style is not. So are you really playing with the pros? Still, "Tournament of Champions" shouldn't be completely discounted for these problems. The game is great at delivering a solid poker experience, and when it comes down to it, isn't that what fans really want?

Red Rocks - Rugs - Riches Text and Photos by Howard Sheldon As the early morning sun is absorbed by the red rocks of Sedona, a warm glow is spread throughout the small city. The surrealower colors compose a symphony of nature around every corner. The rust-red color of the landscape, the burble of Oak Creek, the red penstemon, the yellow daisies, the pale-pink wild lilies mingled with golden poppies along the roadside are an exquisite assault on the five senses. It's little wonder that the awe-inspiring views surrounding Sedona stir reverent feelings in its visitors. If you arrive in Sedona via Highway 179, you will be visually awestruck by Bell Rock on the north side of the road. Bell Rock and Cathedral Rock are two popularly photographed features of Sedona's red rocks. US Highway 89A, through Oak Creek Canyon, was Arizona's first designated scenic highway and was named by Rand-McNallBefore you are dangerously distracted by the beautiful scenery, pull over! There are many areas along the highways to get off the road and park. Get the camera or your phone out and record your trip. Take your time getting your pictures or videos. There have been numerous fender-benders due to drivers being distracted by the beautiful scenery. It can be deadly to drive and canvass nature's wonders at the same time. Sedona contains an assortment of artists, crafts ts, world-class resorts, mansions, museums and a myriad of art galleries and gift shops. Travelers from all over the world in brightly colored clothes with cameras around their necks file up and down the streets and walkways with armloads of newly acquired treasures. Just listen, and you can hear the chatter of foreign tongues on the streets, in the gift shops and restaurants. There is one detail that you may find frustrating while shopping in Sedona. It's the lack of adequate parking. The number of daily visitors well exceeds the number of available parking spaces. Bring good walking shoes! At an altitude of 4500 feet, Sedona misses the searing heat of the lower deserts and receives an occasional dusting of snow in the winter. The beauty and climate of the area make sightseeing, hiking, golf, tennis, horseback riding and jeep-touring year-round activities. However, what is now a bustling tourist attraction and artistic community was something much different at the turn-of-the-century(It incorporated as a city.) Their home was on Oak Creek where highways 89A and 179 now intersect. Their restored home is on the grounds of the Los Abrigados Resort and Spa. You can actually spend the night in the "Stone House," the Schnebly's original home, for a small fortune. If they were alive to see today's Sedona, they would not recognize the town they founded. Sedona has much to offer for the enjoyment of so many different people. There are endless opportunities for gift shopping. There are enough diverse recreational activities to satisfy any nature lover, old or young. There are numerous places to find solitude. Sedona will unlock powerful creative energies and stimulate your imagination. As the sun tracks across Sedona's Navajo-turquoise-blue skies, the ageless mountains, spires, boulders, trees and occasional intermittent waterfalls that surround it will display more colors than any ambitious rainbow. The red rocks of Sedona have a song all their own. Hear their song, join in their chorus. Once Sedona is in your heart it stays there. Some call it "Red Rock Fever.". . Enjoy your sojourn. Red Rock State Park ­ Sedona, Arizona just 5 miles west of Sedona off Highway 89A on the Lower Red Rock Loop Road. A wide variety of special programs are available for school groups and private groups; the picnic areas and classrooms may be reserved for public or private functions.

Home/Page to Stage/You've Produced a Reading, Now What? It's after a reading of your play, and you may be faced with many notes of things said by actors and audience members. There may be a mix of comments both positive and negative. Some comments may confuse you completely—you're not even sure into which category they fit. How do you process that feedback and what do you do with it all? Step Two: Filter. Sorting through all the comments and questions about your play to decipher which things really are helpful and can improve your work is the key to getting the most out of a reading. Aunt Bessie's comment about one actor's nasal quality is irrelevant and has nothing to do with your writing. So, discard any comments such as these. After you finish your re-writes, have another reading with a mix of people who have heard the earlier version and those who are completely new listeners to your work. This will give you multiple perspectives on the piece. Those who have heard a previous reading can let you know if the new version works more fluidly than the last one. New listeners can bring a fresh perspective without the bias of having heard another version. Once you have gone through a few readings and re-writes of a work and get it to a place with which you are happy, then you can begin submitting the work to theatres and contests.

1914 Brunswick Avenue #1b | Charlotte, NC 28207 | 704.910.2055 The Roller Coaster of Self-Esteem By Marlea Leary, LCSWDecember 3, 2017Counseling, Self-Esteem How are you feeling about yourself today? Many of us experience a daily roller coaster of the highs and lows of may change on any given day, depending on an interaction with our spouse, child, co-worker or friend. Our feelings of worth and success may vary dramatically depending on the number on the scale or the amount of money in our bank account. We may struggle with our self esteem for days, weeks, or months at a time, if we have experienced a recent conflict, crisis or loss. Those days can feel very dark and full of doubt and judgement. From a very young age, many of us are taught that high self-esteem is important. As children, we are encouraged to do our very best in every activity, whether it be school, sports or the role we play in our families or other relationships. This mindset carries on into adulthood. We should be confident in all our endeavors and if we fall down, then we should get back up, shake it off and keep going. But what about the days we just can’t shake it? The answer is self-compassion. This concept was developed by Dr. Kristin Neff, PhD. Her book, Self Compassion, is an excellent resource about this topicparts. First, self-kindness. Even when we are struggling to find our purpose and worth, we can be kind to ourselves and give ourselves whatever we need and deserve. If we are having a bad day, ake a choice to be kind to ourselves. Self-kindness may be having a cup of tea, taking a bath, enjoying a sunset or allowing ourselves just to sit and be still. Secondly, self-compassion also recognizes common humanity. We are not alone. We have all struggled and suffered in one way or another. We can stop comparing ourselves to others and we don’t have to feel a hardship. It is easier to get through obstacles when we know we are not alone in our journey. Lastly, Dr. Neff encourages mindfulness. In practicing mindfulness, we focus less on critiquing our negative thoughts, feelings and experiences. Instead of pushing those sad, angry or guilty feelings away, we can simply observe them without judgement. Self-compassion is a gift you can give yourself today. You don’t have to change your circumstances or mindset to embrace it. You will feel better if you offer yourself compassion instead of judging yourself for feeling depressed, anxious or hopeless. At Isaiah Counseling & Wellness, our therapists can help you explore these inner though your own self-compassion. No really, my man… how are you? Summer…Fun or Stress?!?

Expressway through A Building - Gate Tower, Osaka Image from Flickr is by Théo La Photo Image from Flickr is by Daniel Rubio Image from Panoramio is by ttakehara Highway running through a building is a not a very common feature of highway engineering. Such occurrences are rare and are usually due to compromise between landowners and the highway authorities specially in the congested areas where the demand for for office/residential space is high and where highways are equally essential for faster and safer movement of the traffic. In 1983 the company owning a depilated building and the appurtenant land wanted to construct a new commercial complex on the spot but the city authorities had plans to use the land as expressway area. Ultimately after five years of negotiation the present solution was arrived at, to the satisfaction of all and the building was completed in 1992.

Steve Berman is driving,” she added, with a photo of the vice chairman of Interscope Records behind the wheel. In the Insta post, Del Rey herself can be seen handing out the icy treat.

Everyone has been asking for an update on the adoption, and the truth is there's just not much that's changed since my last "adoption post". I've continued to update the timeline to the right as any baby milestones have been completed. So here all that is in paragraph form! We have completed our parent training which we were allowed to do online so we could finish it as quickly as possible. We had our last visit with our social worker for our home study, which was the home visit. It went really well and the highlight was probably Miller asking the social worker if she'd like to smell our dog's bed!I have NO IDEA where that came from other than she and her brother must hold each other down and force the other one to smell it when I'm not looking. Miller kept insisting and finally our social worker had say, "um, no thank you!" That child! And what a hamster wheel it is!Know how you feel. Praying things will speed up for you....... Thank you for the update Maggie. The FBI is very slow...we are praying with you for God's timing in this. Just can't WAIT!

Yes, spying on your competitors for backlink search is a great idea. In fact, it’s among my top featured and use-proven tricks in the sphere of the Search Engine Optimization. I mean you can simply use your competitor’s backlinks at your own ranking advantage. Using a wise combination of free tools you are always free to benefit from the advanced backlink search and check for standing out of the competition, no matter how tight it could actually be. Who knew that running a competitive backlink search could be so efficient? Most commonly, I’m using this strategy on every new online project, first and foremost. Well, let’s have it - competitor backlink search doesn’t need any learn spinning or too sophisticated software tools. In fact, it would be perfect even for those guys still new to the process of link building, as well as the very concept of SEO. As a result, you are going to benefit from the best backlinks of your top 10 market opponents all leading the way to your own lucky website. And here we are finally coming to the point - competitor backlink search and analysis itself. For that moment your main list of backlinks is most likely to become pretty bulky. That’s why you should have a double check to make sure you are going to pick out only the best samples for achieving their maximum efficient performance. That way, pay attention and figure which backlinks are just indexed by Google, and which ones have got a certain PR value with them. Of course, the latter ones would be a number one priority for our backlink search. At the same time, note that merely anything indexed in Google must be good enough to be linked to your web pages. That way, I’ve got four use-proven methods to complete your competitor backlink search and analysis. Here they are, in brief: Now it’s time to reproduce the backlinks of your competitors to your own web pages. All you need here is to work persistently on each single link at a time. Delve into the process of your competitors’ link building and open each backlink in the Internet browser. That way, you will understand in what way each market opponent earned his best backlinks. Should it be a blog comment, you will just have to post a new comment of your own. In case it’s a forum post, you will have to pass the registration and simply join the current discussion. Sometimes it might as well be a guest blogging post, so you will have to send the email and invest some time in submitting a new guest post of yours. Simply go through this “list of replica, ” and you will get an overall understanding of the process.

APA style:I have put Jung's depth psychology in dialogue with Patanjali's yoga philosophy in an attempt to form a bridge between dualistic and nondualistic models, which may lead us to integrate contemporary science within a holistic picture of our Being in this world. Patanjali appears to rely upon a well thought out metaphysical schematic, which can be abstracted from his text, the Yoga Sutras (YS). Two key terms to understand in Patanjali yoga are purusa, pure consciousness, and prakriti, nature or psycho-physical being and its source. Mind for Patanjali is a part of prakriti, as is anything phenomenal, whether subtle or gross. When read through a nondual lens purusa and prakriti are seen as distinguishable, separable but not separate. Dualism in Classical Yoga is falsifiable: the dualities are expository and used for the process of, and means to, realignment or yogic union. [1] In Patanjali's world pure consciousness, is the fundamental ontological reality, which is self-illuminating (YS 4.19, 4.22), singular (YS 2.25, 4.34), eternal (YS 2.5), and absolute (YS 4.18). [2] Patanjali uses the terms perceiver (drastr) and seeing (drs) interchangeably with pure consciousness throughout his work, implying an equation between these terms. The methodology in Patanjali's text revolves around, and resolves to, a crucial discernment between two orientations of consciousness. For Patanjali there is a discernable difference between pure consciousness abiding in its true essential nature (YS 1.3), and consciousness when it is not resting there but rather assuming the modifications of the mind and its contents (YS 1.4). Another way to say this would be that for Patanjali there is a distinct difference between our experience of ontic reality and our experience of epistemic states. I like to use an exercise to elucidate this point further. Think for a moment about standing in front of a window. When you are standing in place A, you are at a certain angle and the light is just so, whereupon no reflection of yourself comes back to distort that which you are perceiving. If you move just a hair, and stand in place B, the angle changes and your reflection comes into the frame obstructing the clear view. When pure consciousness is known or embodied in experience, it looks directly through a lens of perception without reflection, akin to standing in place A at the window. All distortions are removed from the lens and clarity of perception ensues. Epistemic states are psychological in nature, they occur in the reflection of the mind. Reflected consciousness is not pure consciousness though, just as moonlight is not sunlight. If you can imagine living in a cave and only exiting at night you would have no idea it was the light of the sun illuminating the moon. When we are entrenched in orientation B our perception of the world is similar. We have no understanding about the relationship between pure consciousness and reflected consciousness. Patanjali's methodology aims at getting our minds to exit the cave for good. Although both Jung and Patanjali attempt to ground their work in the direct experience of life, and guide us towards wholeness, looking at Jung through the lens of nonduality, wholeness appears beyond reach. Jung believes that God, the collective unconscious, or the Self can never be known directly. Comprehension comes about through objects of experience. Furthermore, for Jung, "." [4] On the other hand, Patanjali's yoga soteriology aims to lead one to kaivalya. Patanjali's kaivalya is unveiled when the mind is stilled and all objects are removed from the horizon of our awareness. While kaivalya is most often understood as liberation, Indian philosophical scholar Sthaneshwar Timalsina clarified that, "This term does not convey the same semantic resonance as moksa, which literally means liberation. The term kevala, having the suffic valac in the meaning svartha (itself or oneself) from the base ka, is basically 'to rest upon oneself'." [5] Resting upon oneself, or one's-own-ness, allows us to directly experience nondualism and the totality of our true nature. Any kind of splitting or binding influences cease and the tormenting effects of the opposites comes to rest. Jung recognized yoga's ability to "create a psychological disposition" which allows for prajna, while acknowledging how the West, "finds itself in a real dilemma" because of its "h." [6] Jung stated, with regard to the mind body problem, "The ay." [6] Jung works toward a nondual vision throughout his career. For example, through the lens of alchemy, which was highly influential to his work, Jung entertained the "inner unity, or experience of unity" expressed by mystics "in the idea of the unio mystica." [7] In his collaborative work with theoretical physicist Wolfgang Pauli, they "coarisey to which they cannot be reduced to and to which direct empirical access is impossible." [8] Although Jung never proved empiric consciousness to be a unity, his legacy aims in that direction. Although Jung doesn't make any concise statements, or theories, about the mind heart connection as Patanjali does in YS 3.34, Jung does speak throughout his texts on feeling and affect and researches love alongside religious factors and symbols of transformation. In reference to how love appears in Christianity Jung stated, Accordingly, love would seem to be no trifling thing: it is God himself. But, on the other hand, "love" is an extreme example of anthropomorphism and, together with hunger, the immemorial psychic driving-force of humanity. It is, psychologically considered, a function of relationship on the one hand and a feeling-toned psychic condition on the other, which as we have seen, practically coincides with the God-image. [12] Coming to terms with the feeling-value of psychic contents, in addition to their intellectual value, "is an indispensable prerequisite for wholeness," according to Jung. [13] The value of our emotional and affective life is woven throughout his work. In reference to alchemy Jung noted, "The a." [14] Furthermore Jung emphasized that "the purely intellectual attitude must be abandoned." [15] Revisioning and understanding our intellectual life and heart center are two strong bonds between depth psychology and Classical Yog Although he repeatedly denied any metaphysical or ontological claims, Jung's depth psychology hypothesized an unconscious agent, which we can never know directly. Jung's assumption, that we can think and act without a metaphysical premise, indicates his alliance, or attempt to be compliant, with the materialist science worldview. Empirical science rests on the foundation that we can formulate our worldview by means of researching phenomena, without any metaphysical implications. As British-born philosopher Alan Watts noted in direct reference to Jung, "Unconscious metaphysics tend to be bad metaphysics." [8] Although not explicitly stated in his theory, for Jung the unconscious is ontically real. [19] In addition to the disagreement on the ontological nature of the unconscious, there are other notable differences between Jung and Patanjali's models. For instance, in Jung's world ego-consciousness has evolved out of the unconscious, which, once again, for Jung is ontically real. For Jung, it is the ego, a center in the psyche of each individual, which is the seat of consciousness. "Consciousness is inconceivable without an ego," Jung says, because in his view, "i." [20] Because the ego is ontically false in Patanjali's world, the ego concept can be completely deconstructed (YS 3.47). For Patanjali, ego, like mind, is a content of consciousness. Realization of the ontic reality of pure consciousness comes through discriminating consciousness from the contents of consciousness. This is not to say that we do not need instruments of perception to be in the world. The mind itself is not the issue. It is how we understand those instruments, and identify with them, that is all-important. Patanjali understands pure consciousness to be self-illuminating, eternal, and absolute, with the human mind and body as instruments of perception, or vehicles for consciousness. Pure consciousness isn't transforming in Patanjali's work: Movement is acknowledged as the evolution of the fundamental attributes (gunas) of nature (prakriti), in particular their smallest expression, anu. The slight movement of anu appears to take on a transformation of consciousness. This is the crucial discernment that Patanjali is asking practitioners of yoga to make. Again, with no unconscious, acitti, Patanjali points to avidya, absence of vision, or lack of knowledge, to explain dualistic and constrained worldly life. If one does not experience nonduality, it is not because one is unconscious: our vision is blocked by phenomena, thereby inhibiting and/or distorting the view. Remove the inhibition and the view clears. Phenomenal consciousness comes to rest as pure consciousness. To state this in a different way entirely, instead of focusing on the way things appear, we are able to be at rest with the way things are, whereupon we have clarity of perception and act in total alignment with our true nature. Once again it is evident that Patanjali is crystal clear in regards to a crucial discernment between psychological experience and ontological reality. Patanjali explained, explicitly, what one experiences through the subject object worldview, and he never resorted to modeling this processing of contents in terms of conscious and unconscious. It is Jung's assertion of an unconscious that notably sets him apart from Patanjali. By comparing Jung and Patanjali, it appears that a model devoid of pure consciousness, coupled with an ego that can never completely dissolve, alongside a Judeo-Christian God that does not consult with his own omniscience essentially resolves to a human species that is superior to pure consciousness and nature herself. If Patanjali's model is correct, the unconscious may be the Achilles heel of Jung's overall vision. In order to elucidate the foundational differences between Jung and Patanjali further, I'd like to suggest an exercise. Imagine yourself standing in front of a mirror. You will see only a partial reflection of yourself. Depending upon the angle with which you stand in front of the mirror, different aspects of you, different phenomena, will be illuminated, reflected, able to be perceived. Now imagine you and a friend standing in front of the same mirror, and both of you changing your angles and looking at your own reflections, and the reflection of the other. Again, depending on the angle that each of you takes, some phenomena will be able to be perceived by one or both, and some phenomena will not be able to be perceived by either. The mutual process of shared experience from the perspective of the mundane human mind is like this: an eternal dance of phenomena that are reflected and observed, or stripped from view. Stripped from view does not mean they are not there, or from the perspective of Patanjali yoga, that they are unconscious. It means they are not perceived, or reflected through a particular angle or lens of perception. Accepting this metaphorical view, it becomes clear that what Jung calls the unconscious is not actually unconscious at all but a form of veiled phenomenal consciousness. Comparing this to Patanjali's model where obscured phenomenal consciousness is already fully aligned with the light of never-collapsing pure consciousness resolves to seeing Jung's whole model as resting on a very shaky foundation, or false view. In other words, Jung's model rests on the presupposition that the ego and the unconscious are real. While Jung acknowledges and emphasizes the teleological function of the psyche and synchronicity, both of which are in alignment with Patanjali's yoga psychology, Jung's focus is on discovering the unity of psyche and matter, not the unveiling of the nondual nature of pure consciousness and nature. The focus of Patanjali's methodology focuses on the latter. Pure consciousness through Patanjali's lens can be seen as both pervasive, and continuously in harmony with reflective consciousness from orientation A (YS 2.21, 4.24); Even without our understanding or reflected knowledge of the process when we are in orientation B. Just as the sun is continuously in harmony with the light of its reflection off the earth and the moon regardless if we are existing only in the cave. We do not understand the nature of light when our perception is off, but that doesn't change the nature of light. Hence why from the perspective of yogic alignment ontic reality outweighs epistemic states. In contradistinction to Jung, synchronicity and the union of psyche and soma are not researched but known to Patanjali. Patanjali informs us that we will understand synchronicity and nonduality too, once we have obtained the knowledge born of discrimination (YS 3.54, 4.23). That is to say, looking through a yogic lens, when we are within orientation B, focused on the plane of intellectuality (vijnanamaya), engrossed in the modifications of the mind (citta vritti), we search for the true reflection in various ways. Hence Jung's search for the unity of psyche and matter, can be seen to reside in Patanjali's orientation B. Although Jung seeks a unifying model throughout his career, for Jung ego-consciousness and the resultant subject/object distinction remain steadfast. For Jung pure consciousness was impossible to know or experience: he thought pure consciousness was an idea which signified that Eastern intuition had overreached itself. [23] He believed that any practices aimed at fully releasing egoic attachments would lead one to unconsciousness. Jung began to formulate the theory of synchronicity after many decades of engagement with the paranormal. In Jung's world, synchronicity is a formal factor in nature, which is "the meaningful coincidence of an absolutely natural product with a human idea apparently independent of it." [24] In addition to "meaningful coincidence" Jung also describle." Synchronistic phenomena appear meaningfully related, but not causally so. Jung explained, of pby a r t d I ds must have far-reaching consequences. [25] Jung's work with the complicated phenomena of synchronicity was never completed. Contemporary Jungian analyst David Tresan has noted that Jung's synchronicity "signaled an incomplete picture of reality and serves as the goad to discovering a fuller one." [26] Because all information resides undivided and whole, there is no subject standing in relation to an object ontically. Duality only appears psychologically through the psychological splitting of opposites. Using the analogy of the sun and moon, we can talk about day and night, but ultimately they are not distinct. Borderless, one flows effortlessly into the next. Coupled with the mechanism of manifestation, or unity of modification, in Classical Yoga the modifications of the mind are always known due to the eternal and absolute nature of their master, purusa. Seeing can be veiled but it cannot be blinded. No matter how we attempt to dissect the physical world through discrete observation at the level of our human awareness, it is still one indivisible All Knowing. Fully. Conscious. Whole. Once this is experientially understood, in Patanjali's world any form of objectifying phenomena becomes unsatisfactory, as it is known to be inhibitory. Epistemic states dissolve into ontic reality. Dualistic psychological experience comes to rest and Being is understood through embodiment. With Jung and Patanjali's ideas of synchronicity in mind, theoretical physicist Juan Maldacena's holographic vision becomes interesting to explore. If the Upanishadic tradition is correct, and pure consciousness is the ontological reality, then from this perspective, reality can be envisioned more like a holograph than the 3D world we are used to imagining it as. Using a holographic model as a heuristic devise can aid our understanding not only of synchronicity but also allows us to envision how "pure consciousness can be everywhere, and everywhere the same, yet ignorance can be somewhere and somehow." [29] The reflection we see of ourselves is vital to the vision we have of ourselves and our world. In order to transform into the next level of our potentiality, I believe we must see ourselves in new ways. Looking closely at the work of Jung and Patanjali helps us understand the differences between dualistic and nondualistic notions of our world and has the potential to stimulate us to contemplate our orientation. If we are able to perceive the world both dualistically and nondualistically, through which lens does it feel most comfortable in our lived experience of Being? Where can we find rest, harmony, joy and peace? Through re-visioning the relationship between our dualistic and nondualistic models, reorienting to, and aligning with pure consciousness, it is possible we may uncover deeper insights into how we might better live our lives.

ts. The formulae to calculate the control limits differ for each type of control chart so producing control charts requires specialist software and/or a skilled data analyst. The control limits are sometimes marked 3 sigma. Sometimes we wish to compare among sites (hospitals, health boards or countries), rather than across time. In such cases control charts (X-bar & S, P or U) with the locations (or subgroup/site sizes) on the horizontal axis, rather than time points, can be used. These are commonly ordered in ascending size of site (subgroup). The control limits are wider for small sites/subgroups and narrower for larger sites.

But how much are we, being the average citizens, aware of the specifics, so that we may pass on the relevant information among our fellow investors, not blind panic. 2. What is Buyer’s Credit? 3. How has the fraud been detected? A partnership of firms, Diamond R US, Solar exports and Stellar diamonds have requested Punjab National Bank on January 16th 2018, for Buyer’s credit to make payments to their overseas suppliers, with a set of relevant import documents.nd his uncle Mehul Chinubhai Chokshi were the partners in the above said firms. As these firms had no amount whatsoever sanctioned to their name from PNB, the bankers requested them to furnish at least a 100% cash margin to issue the LoU for raising the Buyer’s credit. But he Buyer’s credit facility since the past 6 years without providing the cash margins. However, PNB has found that their own bank records fail to corroborate this. Upon further investigation, the bank officials have d the said LoUs in the past without following the procedures for approvals. It has been discovered that the employees back then have transmitted the SWIFT instructions t the overseas branches of Indian banks to raise the firms with Buyer’s credit but deliberately haven’t made a bank record of these transactions to avoid being caught. The complaint also states that the funds raised in this manner for the payment of Import bills have never been used for the same purpose in most cases. As per the FIR filed, five of the SWIFT messages (Sstructions) were issued to the one branch of Allahabad Bank and three branches of Axis Bank in Hong Kong. 4. What is Indemnity? INDEMNITY simply means, security against loss or damages. The act defines it as a contract in which one party guarentees to save the other party from a or by the action of any other person. In the case of PNB vs Nirav Modi, the fraudulent transaction which was initiated on behalf of the bank now implies that PNB has agreed to indemnify the overseas Indian banks of any losses that may occur due to the liability of Buyer’s credit provided to Nirav Modi’s firms under the guarantee of PNB. Although Nirav Modi’s firms have been paying off these loans over time the fraud charges are on the key aspect that the Buyer’s credit has been authorized without a cash margin (basically, like approving a loan without a collateral). It is also important to be note that the indemnity in this scenario is non-funded, which indirectly derives monetary benefits through the guarantee of the bank. The monetary equivalents of the entire Buyer’s credit generated through such a guarantee accrued by Nirav Modi’s firms would sum up to USD 1.77 billion (approximately) as on date. These are the reasons why these transactions haven’t been red-flagged over these six years, until the officials looked into the history of the undocumented SWIFT transactions. It is a common misconception that whenever banks faces the brunt of fraud, it immediately alarms the depositors and panics them with regards to their funds stashed within the banks. This is not the case always, for instance, in PNB vs Nirav Modi scenario. Following the fraudulent charges, the firms assets have already been seized and the balance pay outs would be have to be drawn from the market cap of the PNB. Even more so, the only way to improve the economic models ranging from individual households to entire nations is to see how they stand the test of time and such failures. Therefore, as much as it is

a Restoration lady of quality, David Grimm's Measure for Pleasure delights in being overdressed, which unfortunately means that you, like a Restoration rake, have to strip away some of its outer layers of verbal frippery before you can enjoy it. You may notice as you toss them away that some of the frills are prettily embroidered, and what awaits you underneath is a chillingly modern darkness of spirit, but don't let that stop you. You're contemporary enough, after all, to cope with a writer who, even at his smiliest, proffers a sensibility as grim as his name. The story, all seduction schemes and disguises, may be Restoration in spirit, but its charming resolution is out of 18th-century sentimental comedy, with an especially heavy assist from Beaumarchais. The difficulty is that, whenever Grimm's writing gets genuinely powerful, his bleak modernity shows through both the mock archness and the mock warmth. The characters' negativity evokes Strindberg and Beckett more readily than Congreve and Sheridan. Additionally, the kind of giggly undergraduate double entendres in which Grimm delightsnaming the hero Dick so that the heroine can shout, "I love Dick!" and suchlikeis far from the plain talk that wowed the pit in Charles II's theatergoing days, when only hypocrites and adulterous wives stooped to euphemism. Still, Grimm's power and his verbal gifts are both strongly evident, and Peter Dubois's rompy production (like the text, too self-consciously arch at times) keeps his dramaturgic balls in the air, thanks especially to Anita Yavich's gaudily saucy costumes and to a fine cast, with five genuinely first-rate performances: Michael Stuhlbarg as a tormented servant and masquerading fop, Suzanne Bertish as an ego-maddened great lady, Susan Blommaert as a secretly sex-mad Puritan, Euan Morton as a boy whore turned ladies' maid (yes, all this and Gay Pride lectures too!), and Emily Swallow as the most pertly wicked of good-girl ingenues. With this much talent on display, seeing underneath the frills should be easy enough.

I'd rather be a comma than a fullstop Lovely Lund But summer in Sweden is best for putting your feet up. We spent a weekend cycling in the surrounding country-side, passing through farms, villages and forests. The beach is only 7km away, so cycling there is on the agenda for the coming weekend. And if you’re lucky, you’ll be invited to a Kräftskiva, a traditional crayfish party. (At least, it’s officially about the crayfish; it’s actually about the schnapps.) We settled into Lund surprisingly easily. While most grocery labels, television programmes, bus signs and restaurant menus (and washing machine instructions) are in Swedish, most people speak fluent English, and are happy to help. Apart from a greater selection of fish (try the smoked herring), supermarkets would look very familiar to South Africans. (Oddly, chicken is not very popular.) Drinking is a favourite past-time, especially now that the students have returned. (Stellenbosch students would feel right at home: all first-years wear pretpakkies during their introductory week.) And somehow the Swedes remind me of South Africa in the early 1990s: I can’t exactly put my finger on it, but this ad which currently airs on Swedish TV provides a clue. Of course, there are also differences. As one of the ten safest countries in the world, security is less of a worry. Sweden hopes to move to a cashless society so credit cards are preferred everywhere; don’t expect to buy tickets on the bus, for example. Bicycles are ubiquitous and there is an excellent cycling infrastructure, which means you can find your way easily across town. This also means that there are nearly no cars in the centre of town and there’s a general unwillingness to use vehicles when other modes of transport are available. (A vision of a future Stellenbosch?) And because wages are so high, any labour that can be substituted by technology is: supermarkets have self check-out lanes, there are no petrol attendants and don’t expect to be frequently interrupted by attentive restaurant waiters. You’ll also pay for that beer, sir: the average bar charges about five times what you would pay for a Heineken in South Africa. (But you can buy good-quality South African wine at a relatively inexpensive price at Systembolaget, which feels more like an upmarket pharmacy than a liquor shop.

I am not the least surprised to see you comparing Sweden to SA – it is not the first time! That said, after my own travels to Denmark and Sweden, I can definitely share many of your sentiments. On a more touristy note, I highly recommend that you go to the Louisiana Modern Art Museum in Copenhagen, if you haven’t yet been there. It is the first place I will return too when I go back to Copenhagen. That said, I am big on museums, however their modern art is more accessible than the likes of the Tate Modern for instance. It’s about 20 minutes by train outside of central Copenhagen. Buy a ticket at the central station, it worked out (albeit two years ago) a tad cheaper. August 29, 2013 at 09:5.

I served in January by being a prayer warrior for my family during my grandfather's last days after he had a stroke and was in hospice care. I knew there was not much I could do to prolong his life but praying for strength and peace for my grandma was the least I could do to serve my family. My grandpa went home to be with the Lord on 12/31/12 and my later thanked me for praying for her and that she felt like the Lord gave her tremendous peace. Serve. That is one thing I have been focusing on this year. How can I serve others in the Lord's name to glorify Him? Awesome word for this year! </s> 806559-401 Nike Zoom Rival M 8Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG Men's Shoe 555088-103 White/Varsity RedWolf Grey/Cool Grey/Volt/Black Nike 880845-002 Special Price $89.97 </s> BlizzCon Is Expected To Be A Blast The dive into Legion is going to be a very personal one because developers will show footage of the new zones in the game, how they create and breathe life into their most epic characters, how the lore develops and where it is going, etc. The truth is that World of Warcraft’s most solid advantage is the lore and how much it makes people empathize with the characters in the story. And let’s not forget Overwatch. Overwatch is Blizzard’s new shooter, a brand new game, with no correlation to the other Blizzard ones, that seems very promising in terms of gameplay, visuals and competition. We expect to find out more about the game’s lore, where the heroes are coming from. We are also probably going to see some kind of patch notes to see how the mechanics of the game developStart a roofing business by following these 9 essential steps: You’ve discovered the perfect business idea and you’re ready to take the final step to start it. There’s more to starting a small business than simply signing it. You’ll need to register the company, obtain permits and get licenses. Each step is essential to running the business properly. To make sure you’ll be able to sustain yourself for the long term, create a written business plan that details your plans for the future. Even if you’re just planning on repairing or replacing a few shingles on your roof, a business plan can be an excellent way to assess your short-term and long-term cash flow. A solid projection of future financial income will help you choose a roofing business with the right balance of predictability and stability. Here are a few more tips for planning your business’s financial future: Think carefully about the type of materials you plan to use for your roofing company. Will you be offering either asphalt shingles, metal roofing, slate shakes, or wood shingles? If you’re planning on doing any kind of contracting work on residential roofs, be sure you know what kind of warranty you will be getting as well as the length of time you’ll have to carry the warranty. Find out how much of a deductible you’ll be required to pay before being paid your actual costs. Keep in mind that contracting work does not include all roofing services. For instance, asphalt shingle replacement isn’t included in a general contractor’s repertoire. On the other hand, an experienced roofing company will know where to get roof replacement quotes from different roofing manufacturers and installers, including asphalt shingle manufacturers. A good contractor will also have a list of roofing products and a detailed estimate of all work to be done for a one-time cost or an hourly rate. Make sure you find this out when interviewing potential roofers, so you don’t wind up paying more for a roof replacement than the roofer initially told you was going to cost. Your final consideration when choosing which roofing company to hire is whether or not you need liability insurance and/or compensation insurance. Both of these are required by law in every state and are designed to protect you in case someone is injured while working on or using your roof. Whether you’re using cheap shingle material or expensive slate tile, both materials could potentially fall and injure

MobaPhoto is a simple, free of achieving simple editing operations on images: resizing, brightness and contrast adjustments, cropare, rotate, remove red eye, rename etc. Another interesting feature is to create a gallery of your favorite images. The main advantage of this program is the ease of use. MobaPhoto is a photo editing software extremely easy to use, it is recommended program ECEE beginners and those who want to quickly edit images. Honestly, I don't like Dan either. These "endless" tutorials made by him are not in line with the notion of tutorial. As for the sound, he better not talk anymore. Saying these things I hope I did not upset anyone . Dan is a professional, you like it or not is another matter. Skill and experience of our colleague can not be questioned, Dan proved that the series of tutorials dedicated to the program Gimp, OpenOffice.org, Blender, etc. KeePass. Dan does not avoid difficult topics to attack, is a man who likes to discover, not what is easy to get to, do exactly what he likes, is original. Opinions like that would be good to keep them for you, you were not a diplomat, even you were totally devoid of common sense. I do not think that walking down the street to go to people to tell them how ugly or beautiful are, there are things in life you have to keep for us. I like how Dan does his job, makes for fun and it shows. Mircea SITMA, your gesture, give evidence of disrespect. This is a private proprietary, in your opinion, you express it in the street to get the rights you are entitled to: health, education, infrastructure, higher living standards bun.Dan great tutorials do not matter as long as they are long are interesting. If you do not like do not look. Mircea wanted to hurt and did… so easily you can hurt a man! But enough with the Tanar.Te expect Mircea Dan! Very good tutorial Dane. I made a slideshow presented by Dan's schedule but I have a problem my site was blocked when I want to upload Slideshow.Cum unlock page? 1.Multumesc for this tutorial. 2. I would like, if possible, a tutorial for "Tunngle". I have clicknet and I can't log in to any game using "tunngle. Keep up the good work, because you do a great job! I install the Office suite in which I also have "Microsoft Office Picture Manager" which is enough for me to edit without too much pretension and because I like to keep my PC clean, I limit myself to that. My opinion is that any tutorial is helpful, as long as you learn something new and useful software el.Sunt good enough that many users have not even heard mostly their fault, because they are lazy and do not seek, but simply because some are not promoted enough. MobaPhoto (along with many others) is the kind of "scooter" program - it helps you get from point A to point B, without consuming too much, without wasting time in traffic jams, but also without reaching 200 per hour with a full trunk . From the category of "heavy" programs, obviously, all Photoshop remains basic. It's still GIMP, but I still can't find the time to seriously study this program. Speaking of GIMP, it's perfectly true that Dan has done an excellent job with those tutorials (and others). Nowadays hardly find people to spend their free time and energy explaining to others what and how. Regarding the comment Mircea, you and you may not. You're right, because not chosen the happiest expression gave the impression of aggression and personal attacks. But you are not entitled for the following reason: Mircea Dan did not make any stupid or disabled or incompetent, nor the said injurat.A do not like him because he's tutorials are very long and the sound is weaker than in tutorials Christ (at least that I've read, maybe i wrote something else and I've edited the comment). did not say anything about physical or Dan's professionalism. Cristi, on the street you don't go to tell someone that it's beautiful or ugly, for the simple reason that it doesn't ask your opinion. But here .. "Don't forget" .You can't ask people to express their opinion only if it's good, and if someone tells you that you're doing tutorials that are too long and sounds weaker, slap their face. Finally, do not lengthen more, I said what I had to say. Further enhanced tutorials! suggestions, complaints, additions to the program, not how long, and not as one who speaks them, nor should anyone afford to make a complaint to that person, it's a site where you pay and tell Thanks so much data that you presented, too bad you do not understand the logic. I like long tutorials that explain in detail why and how! So will these tutorials. To comprehend everyone. And let's not pay so much attention to these mediocre ones who give their opinion without even being able to understand what a TUTORIAL is. The world is full of superficial people like Mircea. And he went through the school like on VIDEOTUTORIAL… fast fast… and chose ales cacophonies. DIXIT. you're right in the last part, it's honest, that you can not say it's great if you do not. I hope I did not offend anyone with this comment. A simple program folosit.Mulţumesc.

Stress has become a part of our life in today’s world. Millions or perhaps billions of people live under stressful condition. While many of us consider stress to be a mental ailment, it is not so. Stress can have serious implications on all spheres; emotional, mental as well as physical. Stomach pain due to stress is not uncommon. Perhaps at least 30 to 50% of people, who live under stressful condition, may feel its effect in their stomach. Panic, anxiety and other stressful conditions can interfere with the nervous system of the body. Stress can disturb normal functioning of stomach and intestine producing symptoms such as stomach cramps, indigestion, diarrhea and inflammatory bowel disorder. How Stress Causes Stomach Pain? This type of stomach pain due to stress is also called functional gastrointestinal disorder. There is no organic reason such as infection or cancer etc found in such cases. Our body has complex network of nerves. It begins from the brain and reaches to almost all the body part. The intestinal nervous system helps the food to get digested and to expel the remnant waste from the body. The neurons direct the muscles of intestine to contract and break down the food. It becomes easy for the nutrients to get absorbed from the intestinal wall. However, stress can interfere with normal mechanism of digestion. When a person is under stress, the brain releases hormones and chemicals to fight or fly the situation. This hormones and chemicals enter the digestive system and increase the intestinal motility causing conditions such as diarrhea and stomach pain. On the other way round, if the nervous system slows down the digestive process and resources all the internal energy to fight stress, it may give rise to constipation and stomach pain. Symptoms Of Stomach Pain Due To Stress How To Relieve Stomach Pain From Stress? If the stomach pain and well as other symptoms are caused exceptionally due to stress, the logical therapy is to focus on how to reduce stress. There are several ways that can help. Exercise: exercising daily greatly relieves stress level. Any form of exercise may help. Simple walking for 45 minutes, or cycling for 20 minutes or swimming, cardiovascular exercise all increase the release of feel good hormones in the body and thus the person feels better. Sleep: insomnia is one of the reasons for increase in stress. Sleep regularly for at least 7 hours. This will allow you to reduce your stress level. Good to communicate: when you are stressed, talk to your friend or family member about your worries. This will help to lighten your feelings and at the same time by discussing, you may find a way to deal the stressful situation. Some relaxation techniques such as aromatherapy, massage and deep breathing also help to alleviate stress and related stomach pain.

ician professional medical activities, hospital and group affiliations, and practice specialties are collected each year. (e.g.s), generally do not contain individual patient identifiers and thus may not be linkable to patient registries, but nevertheless provide valuable insight into the makeup of the registry's target population. This is particularly true for data from nationally representative surveys, such as AHRQ's Health Care Utilization Project (H-CUP) Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS) and the suite of (NHAMCS)The discussion below focuses on logistical and data issues to consider when incorporating data from other sources. Chapter 11 fully explores dfor registries. The importance of patient identifiers for linking to secondary data sources cannot be overstated. Multiple patient identifiers should be used, and primary data for these identifiers should not be entered into the registry unless the identifying information is complete and clear. While an SSN is very useful, high-quality probabilistic linkages can be made to secondary data sources using various combinations of such information as name (last, middle initial, and first), date of birth, and gender. For example, the NDI will make possible matches when at least one of seven matching conditions is met (e.g., one matching condition is “exact month and day of birth, first name, and last name”). However, the degree of success in such probabilistic and deterministic matching generally is enhanced by having many identifiers to facilitate matching. As noted earlier, the various types of data (e.g., personal history, adverse events, hospitalization, and drug use) have to be linked through a common identifier. A discussion of both statistical and privacy issues in linkage is provided in Chapter 16, and a discussion of managing patient identity across systems is provided in Chapter 17registry may need to accept and link data sets from more than one outside organization. Each institution contributing data to the registry will have unique requirements for patient data, access, privacy, and duration of use. While having identical agreements with all institutions would be ideal, this may not always be possible from a practical perspective. Yet all registries have resource constraints, and decisions about including certain institutions have to be determined based on the resources available in order to negotiate specialized agreements or to maintain specialized requirements. Agreements should be coordinated as much as possible so that the function of the registry is not greatly impaired by variability among agreements. All organizations participating in the registry should have a common understanding of the rules regarding access to the data. Although exceptions can be made, it should be agreed that access to data will be based on independent assessment of research protocols and that participating organizations will not have individual veto power over access. An example of the need for regular communication is a situation that arose with the United States Renal Data System a few years ago. The United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) changed the coding for donor type in their transplant records. This resulted in an apparent 100-percent loss of living donors in a calendar year. The change was not conveyed
