Taken from his Under the Banyan Tree and Other Stories collection the story is narrated in the third person by an unnamed narrator and after reading the story the reader realises that Narayan may be exploring the theme of judgement. The hermit is continually judging the woman in the house opposite in a negative way. Basing his opinion of her on the amount of men who come to her home on a daily basis. Though the hermit can’t prove it he considers that the woman’s house is a house of ill-repute and as such she should not be allowed to live on the same street as him. This may be important as the hermit is not showing any charity to the woman though he himself is a religious man. If anything he is thinking only of his own discomfort rather than how desperate the woman herself may be living the lifestyle she is living. At no stage in the story does the hermit attempt to make a connection with the woman and to discover what her real story may be. If anything the hermit is working off assumptions when it comes to how he interprets the woman.
It is however interesting that the hermit does eventually pity the old woman when he thinks more about her life and sees her closer when she offers him some food. A charitable act that in many ways may upset the hermit as

Remember, men like to keep it simple. In order for a man to want to commit to you, he needs to feel that you will simplify his life, while adding to his happiness.
In other words, keep the drama to a minimum. Although some men may not be ready to make a full commitment to a woman within the first month or two months dating her, it does not mean they cannot fall in love and be excited to get married to the woman of their dreams.
Men have no clue how they truly feel about a woman in the long-term until they become brave enough to get to know a woman beyond her looks and the physical pleasures she can offer.
In other words, you have just as much of a shot to land your dream man than any other woman. To make yourself as attractive as possible to the man of your dreams, you need to give him the right impression about you from the start. Do not chase him.

This is a discussion concerning men and women as they pray and prophesy. The discussion does not concern men and women in their everyday activities of life nor how they ordinarily appear in public, but only how they appear as they pray or prophesy. It may be true, as some contend, that women of Paul's day wen appearing in public always wore a veil, but this is not the subject the apostle discusses in these verses!

Hence, any reference to what men and women did or did not do in their ordinary activities of life is completely beside the point and a reference to such is not pertinent to the issue. This passage discusses worship-life, not every-day life.

This question was posed recently on one of the forums I am on, and I thought I would share my response here.
The question, in paraphrase, cited the fact that Gorean FW are constrained by "chains" of their station, forcing them to hide their true selves, as opposed to slaves, who, not only are not so constrained, but, in fact, MUST be completely open.
I think much depends on whether one is referring to the FW of the books, or those in real life. If the former, then, certainly, the majority of them wear, perhaps, the heaviest of chains.. Those of the denial of their true nature.
They are forbidden to show any nuance of "slave-like behaviour", lest they be fully enslaved. That may work in the fiction, but in reality, it is absurd! The FW of the books are, in their way, no more "free" than the average Earth woman!
You see, I agree with the idea that, in each woman, there is some slave and some free woman. Of course, how much of each is going to vary widely from woman to woman, but I do think that the vast majority of (straight) women will joyfully kneel before the right man, if only behind closed doors.
That does not mean, however, (contrary to what the books seem to suggest, within the stories) that ALL women are cut out for slavery. In fact, I maintain that most are absolutely NOT! Despite the romantic ideal, where, time and time again,

But why do Russian women look for a husband abroad if they are pretty and clever, well-educated, have successful career in their country? Let’s try to understand this tendency from the point of view of a Russian woman.
Why do Russian Brides look for a love abroad?
A lot of people can firmly say that Russian woman is sitting on dating sites online because she simply wants to meet a rich foreigner and to move to his country in order not to work, simply to say that she wants an easy life. Why does not she want to marry with a man from her country? Why does she want to move, to change the place of living? She is a successful woman here, maybe she has a child or she has never been married. Only try to meet your love in your country. But there are a lot of reasons why Russian single lady wants to go abroad. She understands that the children will be born abroad and will be automatically the citizens of that country but Russian men do not think over this question.
Russian men, as a rule, do not appreciate Russian ladies. They are used to see our women beautiful and pretty, to have two

When someone claims that the Torah’s laws may drive them to suicide, does this threat to life constitute piku’ach nefesh that overrides the law? These are complex questions that I do not claim competency to answer. I will offer a few sources for thought.
Ran and pseudo-Rashi explain that R. Shimon cursed the man and his children to die. Rosh explains differently that R. Shimon cursed the man as a widow’s son (i.e. fatherless), because he seems to have had no positive role model on how to interact with others. The contemporary scholar, Rav Moshe Zuriel (Leket Peirushei Aggadah, ad loc.) suggests very simply that R. Shimon was saying that he would not budge — he would remain in his place for decades, even after the man and his children died, rather than compromise on this issue.
Why was R. Shimon so stubborn? Why didn’t he follow R. Yehudah’s path of prioritizing a marriage’s well-being over the respect of a Torah leader? I suggest that the two agreed in principle and disagreed in application. The issue is simple: any mischievous man could use vows to manipulatively embarrass rabbis. If it becomes a trend, it would make a circus out of communal leadership, draining their time and the respect others have for them.
R. Shimon took this as a guiding principle. He would not allow leadership to collapse in this way. In contrast, R. Yehudah distinguished between one-off cases and a trend. If one person does it,

But rather than acknowledge this as a good thing, the LGBTQ editor for ThinkProgress, Zack Ford, says that the woman should have just let the man rob her because Ford personally finds self-defense with a gun to be offensive.
In a series of now-deleted tweets he shared on Twitter, Ford lamented the fact that the woman in question didn’t “let” Laavion Goings Jr. steal her belongings – because had she done so, then Goings might still be alive. Not only that, but Ford also claimed in another corresponding tweet that conservatives were “thrilled” that the woman shot Goings, seeing as how they love firearms so much.
“Conservatives are thrilled a woman with a concealed-carry permit shot and killed a 19-year-old would-be mugger,” were Ford’s exact words. “That’s not how justice works. The penalty for theft is not death, nor do we want it to be,” he added, insinuating that self-defense is somehow akin to the criminal justice system, overriding lesser penalties for theft as they might be handed down to a guilty party in a court of law.
Instead of stopping this tirade and deleting such nonsense, Ford went on with even more tweets propelling the life of Goings above that of the woman who he might have murdered, had she not taken care of him before he acted on his felonious impulses.

Immediately after the man and woman ate the forbidden fruit, their eyes were opened so that they felt shame about being naked. Therefore, they “sewed fig leaves together and made loincloths for themselves” (3:7). But this initial effort at making clothing was doomed to fail. Loincloths made from flimsy leaves would hardly work to cover the men and women and protect them from the elements of the newly broken world. So God intervened, making “garments of skins” for the first couple and clothing them. This clothing would be much more effective and resilient than a skirt of leaves.

There are other more important things that the church today do not know or care about. Nevertheless it should certainly not be completely ignored.

I read Consequences a while ago. I found it so depressing I had trouble judging whether it was good or not. (I know it was good, the internet tells me so, it was just so sad.) Last week I read Thank Heaven Fasting.
Thank Heaven Fasting is the story of Monica Ingram. When the book starts she is just about to "come out" in society with all that implies.
"She could never, looking backwards, remember a time when she had not known that a woman's failure or success in life depended entirely upon whether or not she succeeded in getting a husband."
Really, that sums up the whole book right there. Monica knows she needs to find a husband, her mother knows it. Everyone knows that is the whole purpose of the rounds of balls and visits. The girls have been groomed from childhood to catch a man. They are taught to make the best of themselves, to look interested but not too desperate, and most of all to never do anything that might damage their reputation because then no man would look at them.
Monica falls in love with the wrong man and commits the sin of kissing him at a party. The book then becomes a story of quiet desperation. Monica returns to society the next season but she never is as successful again. With each succeeding year,

Or do they think that only if they wear revealing outfits will heroes and directors give them opportunities?' So asked famous Indian singer SP Balasubrahmanyam last week.
He sang the popular hit song Dil Deewana from the Bollywood film Maine Pyar Kiya (1989), and has won multiple awards throughout his career. None of which makes it any surprise that the above, widely-quoted comment came from a man.

Sonam Kapoor, Rakhi Sawant, Deepika Padukone, and several other actresses constantly find themselves being told to 'respect Indian culture' and 'dress decently'. This trend of people playing the morality police with show business professionals who have to maintain a certain image and glamour, reveals something running deeper in Indian society.

Autogynephilia refers to a man’s sexual arousal at the thought of himself as a woman, and is considered a type of transsexual gender dysphoria. The term can be thought of in contrast to autoandrophilia, which refers to a woman's sexual arousal at the thought of being a man. There is a distinction within the classification of autogynephiliacs between heterosexual and homosexual desire.
Autogynephilia is also referred to as Blanchard’s transsexualism typology, or Blanchard’s autogynephilia theory (BAT).
Transvestic autogynephilia: When a man is sexually stimulated by the thought or act of wearing traditionally feminine clothing.
Behavioural autogenephilia: When a man is sexually stimulated by the thought or act of doing something thought of as traditionally feminine.
Physiologic autogynephilia: When a man is sexually stimulated by the thought or fantasy of having bodily functions specific to females.
Anatomic Autogynephilia: When a man is sexually stimulated by the thought or fantasy of having a female body, or parts of one.
Autogynephilia is typically associated with gender identity disorder, although it is not necessarily the same disorder.

At a time when gender dynamics need a serious re-looking, it's important for men to understand that looking a certain way isn't the ONLY thing that women want from them.
1. Never questioning a woman's attire.
What you want to wear should be your choice entirely. A real man would never have a problem and would never dictate what a woman should wear.
2. Respecting her career as much as he respects his own.
Now that women are at par with men when it comes to their careers, it's high time men understand and respect her professional goals and ambitions.
3. Not being afraid to express emotions.
Men are always told to hide their tears and keep their emotions to themselves. However, women appreciate men who can express their emotions freely.
And no, crying doesn't make you any less of a man!

One of incidents was caught on video.
Houston attorney, Michelle Fraga, is one of three candidates in the Republican Primary running for the bench in the 295th Civil District Court.
"I was shocked. I think we expect more from our judicial races," Fraga said.
The video, captured on a security camera at Northstar Auto Group, a car dealership on the North Freeway, shows, from many angles, a man walking up to the large 4-by-8 foot campaign sign, forcibly ripping it down, and leaving with it.
Fraga said she does not recognize the man seen on the video.
"He was delivering food next door," Jimmy Vitela, the dealership's own said.
Vitela, a friend of Fraga's, said he investigated the incident and procured video from a neighboring business which revealed the license plate of the car the man was driving.
The car is registered to woman who lives on the eastside.
That woman's husband pointed to their daughter's boyfriend.
Fraga said Friday she will contact the police.
Texas state law specifically prohibits tampering or unauthorized removal of campaign signs with jail time of to one year and a fine of up to $2,500.

If that is the way you think, go and ask a woman directly what does he think about it?
The worst thing that a woman expects from a man is pretension. Don’t pretend to be what you are not in reality. Whether you are good looking or not is something that a woman will surely consider but not more than your personality. What matters more to them is how you hold yourself, whether you can be a good partner or not, which does not depend on your look. If you are confident and carry yourself well there can be nothing more attractive. When you find someone who had an unsuccessful date just ask her what the reason was and you will come to know that the reason was behavioral.

Where can I find this discussion in the Ohr Sameach?
If the sender (husband) is very sick can the Shliach (messenger) give the Get?
If the sender (husband) became a Shoteh after making a Shliach to write a Get for his (husband's) wife?
If the husband died - the Shliach definitely can't give it.
If Shliach used his own paper (Klaf) is it a kosher Get?
If one makes a Shliach to sell his Chometz, does it suffice if the Shliach is Makne (transfers ownership) of the Metaltelin (movable objects) Agav (in conjunction with) his own Karka (field), instead of the owners Karka?
Can a husband make a Shliach to be Maifer (nullify) his wife's vows (if only the Shliach heard the vows)?
If a woman makes a Shliach to receive her Kedushin, does the husband-to-be have to have the woman's consent (to get married to her) when giving over the Kedushin to the Shliach or does it suffice

Retrieved Text: Ever wonder where a novelist gets his or her ideas from? How can it be possible to write a novel about something no one else has thought of? The answer is as varied as the people that ask.
My latest Work in Progress did not start out as a "novel" but only a novel idea. That "new" idea began with the two most important words in the English language to a writer. "What if?"
W​hen I am inspired by a concept I'd like to write about, what I do NOT do is think I'm going to write a novel about it.
For example, I found a song on YouTube about an Eshet Chayil--the Proverbs 31 woman.
That YouTube video got me to thinking, and I haven't stopped thinking about it.
Some of those verses in Proverbs lean to an interpretation in English that the woman is a slave to her husband and children. Nothing could be further from the the truth, however. Jewish men do not sing praises to slaves every Shabbat. Children do not rise up and call a slave blessed.
This is a woman who is the C.E.O. of her home. She delegates responsibilities, and authority. She directs her husband and children. Since most women have outside employment, delegation becomes even more important. But, the number one feature of an eshet chayil is her devotion to Adonai Eloheinu, our Creator.
Eshet Chayil is more precious than rubies. Her husband obeys her (if he's smart) because she does him good all the days of his life. Without her, life could overwhelm him.

Retrieved Text: The majority of men and women are in perpetual quest for eternal love because they simply believe in it. They are cradled since childhood by fairy tales that draw a magic picture of love and happiness. With adolescence, romanticism is born, fed by novels with rose water. One grows up with a stereotype of perfect, unshakable love that nothing can destroy. It is very beautiful ! But often we are caught by the harsh reality of life. Love is not always perfect and eternal.
The woman, through her desire to succeed in her life as a couple and to maintain this love so dear to her heart, tends to do too well and to be too perfect. Yet, she sees her man leaving her. We often ask ourselves the question, why? Generally, when a man falls in love with a woman, he gives himself body and soul. Notwithstanding the cliché that a man is an unsatisfied hunter and an adventurer, it is difficult for him to break an affair or a marriage. But if he does, it's for specific reasons.
When talking about a good and perfect woman, we often refer to the image of a gentle, caring and kind woman. However, there is another type of woman who, in addition to being a good wife, a good lover, a good mother, is a demanding woman who calls for the eternal gratitude of all that she undertakes and who always wants being right and the last word in all situations, thus jeopardizing his relationship.

The importance of Transfer Pricing Bylaws lies in the necessity to implement and enforce the Arm’s Length Principle on transactions between related persons or persons under common control as if they were conducted between independent persons.
The arm’s length principle must be the basis for pricing all transactions between related persons or persons under common control. The Bylaws defines the Arm’s Length Principle as: “where conditions are made or imposed between two or more related persons in their commercial or financial relations which differ from those which would be made between unrelated persons, then any profits which would, but for those conditions, have accrued to one of such Related Persons, but, by reasons of those conditions, have not so accrued, may be included in the profits of that person and taxed accordingly”.
The Bylaws address situations in which the conditions made or imposed between two or more related persons in their commercial or financial relations differ from those made between independent persons if the same transaction took place. For income tax purposes, the income that would have been accrued if the conditions imposed were the same as those which would be made between independent persons should be included in the tax base of the related persons.

According to a resident, the crisis started when two rival cult groups engaged themselves in a supremacy battle around the Welfare Quarters area of the town which later snowballed into a clash between the vigilantes, leading to the death of no fewer than three persons.
He said: “They have turned Welfare Quarters into a den of arms and it is unfortunate that our law enforcement agencies are turning a blind eye and not doing anything about it.
“Yesterday the cult groups in the area engaged each other in a bloody fight that left three persons dead, many injured while several families fled their homes for fear of being killed by the arms wielding young men.

Remember, men like to keep it simple. In order for a man to want to commit to you, he needs to feel that you will simplify his life, while adding to his happiness.
In other words, keep the drama to a minimum. Although some men may not be ready to make a full commitment to a woman within the first month or two months dating her, it does not mean they cannot fall in love and be excited to get married to the woman of their dreams.
Men have no clue how they truly feel about a woman in the long-term until they become brave enough to get to know a woman beyond her looks and the physical pleasures she can offer.
In other words, you have just as much of a shot to land your dream man than any other woman. To make yourself as attractive as possible to the man of your dreams, you need to give him the right impression about you from the start. Do not chase him.
Men want to know as they continue to give more of themselves to a woman that they can keep her happy in the long term. Until a man feels great about himself and what he can offer to a woman, he does not want her to have high expectations of him. He doesn’t want her to fall

You probably know that Russian ladies are very beautiful and lovely women but also they are open-hearted, tolerant and womanly. Unfortunately, we cannot say the same about Western ladies. This is one of the reasons why foreigners look for a Russian bride. But why do Russian women look for a husband abroad if they are pretty and clever, well-educated, have successful career in their country? Let’s try to understand this tendency from the point of view of a Russian woman.
Why do Russian Brides look for a love abroad?
A lot of people can firmly say that Russian woman is sitting on dating sites online because she simply wants to meet a rich foreigner and to move to his country in order not to work, simply to say that she wants an easy life. Why does not she want to marry with a man from her country? Why does she want to move, to change the place of living? She is a successful woman here, maybe she has a child or she has never been married. Only try to meet your love in your country. But there are a lot of reasons why Russian single lady wants to go abroad. She understands that the children will be born abroad and will be automatically the citizens of that country but Russian men do not think over this question.

They can't distinguish what a woman likes from what she doesn't, they feel everything a man does should be what satisfies a woman.

For a man who desires to be real and responsible, it's no big deal for him to learn what are the things that would bring joy between himself and his spouse. These things are little but much and expensive for a man who has no clue on what to do to make his wife happy.

3. SHE CAN BE DISRESPECTFUL WITH HER MOUTH WHEN SHE DEMANDS RESPECT. It can come off as verbal abuse at times and although it’s not acceptable, she does not want to be your mother. She does not want to raise a man. She gets frustrated because at this age, she expects a man to know what needs to be done around the home and in the relationship. A strong man is patient and understanding. He will put her in check if she gets out of pocket, but he respects her feelings and can handle her sharpness.
4. SHE KNOWS HER WORTH AND WILL ACCEPT NOTHING LESS. She has high standards that a weak man will find difficult to meet. Nothing will seem good enough and because of that he will seek validation from a woman with lower standards. A strong man is always willing to grow and go above

When a feminine woman is allowed to be feminine, her level of desire (sexual and otherwise) increases dramatically for the man she is with. This is because she is allowing herself to be a cherished, protected, woman who can relax, feel safe, and trust her man.
So in the courtship process a man shows his masculinity through paying for meals (I am a strong provider, if you bear children and become vulnerable, I will protect you ). A man shows his masculinity by hunting more efficiently than other men (as the initiator, strategist in conquering her heart, the LEADER) that beats out other opponents (showing that you can protect and provide should a threat to your family's safety appear.) If he plans the dates and has plans for his life-- he is a man with direction and deep purpose, which makes him stable and capable of deeply loving you as the woman. A man wandering aimlessly to find his purpose is often not yet ready for long term commitment.
This happens in nature as well....let's talk physiology: you have the egg in the woman's womb ready to be claimed and impregnated by the sperm than beats out all the others. Almost every female client of mine that comes to me DEEPLY LONGS for STRONG masculine energy in a man. It is something so

Women offer unsolicited advice and give direction, and men usually don’t take advice very well. The woman thinks she is just trying to help, but the man thinks she doesn’t trust him to make the right decision.
Men are visual creatures; once an image is in their head, it’s hard to get it out. Women are more inclined to remember emotions or how something made them feel.
Lord, I want to be a woman of wisdom and understanding. Help me comprehend why men are the way they are and how I can improve in my communication and friendships. Amen.
Now as a woman, I can completely agree with this. This is all we are ever trying to do when it comes to helping our men. The other day, me and my man were having a conversation about this exact thing. Giving advice to each other is something we do but sometimes it is not always received well, not just on one end but both. We came to the conclusion that it all comes down to the way we think.

For whatever reason(s), the woman he invites has conveyed the idea that she is – for lack of a better term – quite expensive. There is something of value to her that a man finds appealing. It may be her independence or her ability to be at ease. Whatever it is, she is someone that he is drawn toward.
Maintaining your value means you maintain your mystery. Don’t give more to him than he does to you. You are the one who determines your value, not him. Sometimes you have to reinforce that belief by creating distance. One of the worst things you can do is to act strong and independent for the first few dates and then become emotionally dependent on him for ALL of your happiness. Men can’t handle that kind of responsibility.
From a man’s perspective, this goes hand in hand with your Value. Women who are easy to please are those who appreciate a man’s efforts, even when those efforts leave a woman lacking. This doesn’t mean you should lie and say you like something when you really despise it, rather it means to acknowledge his effort to make you happy. Believe me, he’ll notice that you were merely appreciative and not thrilled. If, however, you are annoyed, he’ll notice that too, but he won’t have much incentive to do a better job next

The most common reason why is because the man is not present. Men spend a lot of time working, watching TV, going out with friends, playing games… This is not a had behavior, because they can still manage to be good fathers that support their family. However, if they don’t pay enough attention to their partner, she could feel neglected and she might even leave.
Here is what every man needs to know, to keep a woman by his side, happy and satisfied.
Simply, you don’t own her soul. Maybe you win her on the first date, but that doesn’t’ mean you should stop there. Be there for her every day, every moment. Talk to your woman about what matters to her and to feel that you’re listening to her.
Women don’t want absent-minded men, especially in your intimate moments. She wants to feel your passion. Show her that she still arouses you. If you’ve lost it, find out the reason. Once it will be discovered, you will definitely feel alive again. And, she will stay!
Try to listen to your wife. Ask her, what is on her mind. Try to notice things. Look at her deeply. If she asks what you’re doing, just tell her: “I’m looking into you. I want to see you deeply. I’m curious about who you are. After all these years I still want to know who you

Bonus question: Translate the passage into natural English.
Bonus: For an entire hour, the man debated whether to go to the bookstore or the library. By the time he finally decided, he was already getting hungry so he ended up going to a restaurant.
Thank you locksleyu, these are really helpful!

"The couple does not have any child and therefore the woman was as independent as the man to work and maintain herself," Additional Sessions Judge (ASJ) Anuradha Shukla Bhardwaj said, dismissing the appeal of the woman, a resident of Delhi, who had challenged the order of a magisterial court which had also denied her relief on similar grounds.
The court rejected the woman's plea relying on judgements of the Delhi High Court in which it had held that when husband and wife have equal educational qualifications, both must take care of themselves.
"In view of the judgements the High Court of Delhi where it has been held that wherever the wife is capable to work and had been working, she shall not be considered dependent upon the husband for her survival. There is no apparent error in the order of trial court," the sessions court said.
The woman had approached the court seeking maintenance from her estranged husband.
In her appeal, the woman said that she was dependent upon her estranged husband for her livelihood and claimed that the trial court had committed an error in concluding that she was capable to work, so cannot be granted maintenance.

A) Whether or not a woman should work outside the home is a struggle for many couples and families. The Bible does have instructions regarding the role of women. In Titus 2:3-4, Paul gives these instructions as to how a young married woman is to be trained by older women: “…train the younger women to love their husbands and children, to be self-controlled and pure, to be busy at home, to be kind, and to be subject to their husbands so that no one will malign the Word of God.” In this passage, the Bible is clear that when children are in the picture, that is where the young woman’s responsibility lies. The older women are to teach the younger women and to live lives that glorify God. Keeping these responsibilities in mind, an older woman’s time can be spent at the Lord’s leading and her discretion.
Proverbs 31 speaks of “a wife of noble character.” Starting at verse 11, the writer praises this woman as one who does everything in her power to care for her family. She works hard to keep her house and her family in order. Verses 16, 18, 24, and 25 show that she is so industrious that she also moonlights with a cottage industry that provides additional income for her family.

Individualism works, ethically, because we can draw a line of separation between individuals. It's possible to benefit one individual without doing so at the expense of another; individual rights provide a legal structure that makes such results not merely possible but reliable. We are not forced to trade off benefits to one individual against injuries to another. And what makes collectivism evil is that it does force such tradeoffs on us.
But if ever there was a case of collectivism in human existence, it's in the relationship between a pregnant woman and her unborn child. The fetus cannot be neutral with respect to the woman carrying it; its very existence alters her hormones, her entire physiology, and her emotional state. Even if the woman wants to be pregnant, it's all too possible, despite the achievements of medicine, for situations to arise where a benefit to the fetus entails harm to the mother, or vice versa, and where it's necessary to decide which benefit is more important. Trying to sort this out by applying the concept of individual rights just doesn't work.
And there's only one decision maker there: the pregnant woman. The fetus lacks sufficient rationality, purposefulness, and self-awareness to make choices. The pregnant woman has to decide where her priorities are. Some pregnant women will choose to take terrifying risks for the chance to have a child, and that's

So, goes the argument, since woman was taken from man she is therefore derivative and subordinate. However, Phyllis Trible in her classic work God and the Rhetoric of Sexuality has a humorous and very good argument against such reasoning. She very insightfully recognizes that the same language is used in the relationship between the man (ha-‘adam) and the ground (ha-‘adama). Man was taken from the ground (cf. Gen 3:19, 2:7).
So, even though man was taken from the ground that doesn’t mean that man is subordinate to or inferior to the ground, actually the opposite is the case. “By strict analogy, then, the line “this shall be called ‘issa [woman] because from ‘is [man] was taken this” would mean not the subordination of the woman to the man but rather superiority to him” (101). I love it!
If we wanted to take the language strictly then the woman is superior to the man. Trible does say that superiority is not at issue so she is not arguing for woman’s superiority but she does do a good job of dismantling an argument for male supremacy in this text. Bravo Phyllis, bravo. I found this very thoughtful and helpful.

In our legal legislation there is no suchconcepts like a decree (maternity leave). Every woman who is preparing to become a mother, the state provides a time interval for childbirth. In accounting practice, it is called a hospital. A rest is provided depending on many factors.
Immediately after graduation, the woman has the rightgo on leave to care for the child. At the same time, it is necessary to submit the necessary documents to the employer. For this time students may be granted academic leave for pregnancy and childbirth at will.
How long does maternity leave last? There is no unambiguous answer to this question. It all depends on the number of children expected and the region in which the woman lives.

The 24-year-old woman, who lives in the 1600 block of 10th Street NE, was arrested at 2:30 p.m. on a misdemeanor charge of endangering children, the jail records said. She was jailed and then released less than five hours later after posting a $1,000 bond.

The unlovely lines that come to the American woman’s face before age has had time to make any material inroad upon her beauty are one of the curses of the American habit of hurry.
I was watching a group of shoppers in an F street shop a few afternoons ago. There was not a relaxed muscle in any single face in the group. The mouths were drawn in straight, unlovely lines — the corner muscles were pulled into wrinkles, and the muscles around the eyes were contracted, causing deep vertical lines between the eyes. Across the foreheads ran corrugated lines, the result of tensely-elevated brows.
And I should not judge that there was a woman in the group whose years numbered more than thirty-five!
The face of the Parisienne woman preserves none of this tenseness, no matter where she goes nor what she does, as a consequence of which she does not lose her grip on youth and beauty until she is quite an old woman.

Women moisturise for several reasons. Mainly they moisturise because they want to look their best. Applying moisturiser every day will keep their skin looking soft and smooth, and is all part of their daily beauty routine. It is the same reason why they put on eyeliner and lipstick, and why they like to look after their hair. Women like to look their best, and applying moisturiser every day is just another part of that.
However, moisturising is also important for the health of a woman’s skin. Daily washing strips the skin of its oils, and without applying a moisturiser the skin would be very dry and become cracked and unhealthy.
Looking at the main reason why women moisturise, this gives us a clue as to why many men don’t like to moisturise. They associate it with the whole feminine beauty regime, so just as they wouldn’t want to apply eyeliner or lipstick they also don’t want to appear girly by applying moisturiser.

However, you and I both know all too well that it is essentially this piece of paper that gets you the call back — or not. And that’s why here I offer you tips on how to maximize your chance of getting noticed. Making a good first impression is the first step!
1. Have irrelevant part-time jobs from high school listed.
Think about it: does your SAT score or AP scores really matter once you’re in college? No.
Similarly, recruiters aren’t interested in how many jobs you had in high school; they only want to know what transferable skills you have.
2. Have spelling errors, typos or incorrect grammar, especially if the position you are applying for requires attentiveness to detail (or you wrote somewhere on your resume or cover letter that you are “detail-oriented“).
Check you didn’t mix up “possess” and “posses,” “madame” and “madam,” “manager” and “manger,” etc. as auto-correct will not correct them! Typos and spelling errors are apparently the #1 pet peeve of hiring managers.

EDIT: Whoops, yes, "co to za kstałt". Dziękuję!
That was probably "Co to za kształt?"
Co to jest = What is it?, so "What is X" - asking for definitions.
Like: Co to jest "kwadrat"? = What is "a square"?

It’s great to know what the forecast is, right? But trust us, the forecast can change a lot. Take Hurricane Irma, for example. Most models had the storm tracking over Miami and eastern Florida thanks to a system coming from the gulf. That system was supposed to push the storm east. However, the timing wasn’t perfect and there was nothing to push Irma east. Instead, she hit western Florida and the Keys hard, and residents only had about 24 hours to prepare.
Thankfully, Floridians are seasoned hurricane experts, so most people on the west coast we’re also ready. But this is just one example of how quickly weather conditions can change during severe weather events. Having real-time information means knowing up to the minute

One of my only quips with Weather Underground (Wunderweather) is its radar detection. If you go to the screen with radar, either online or on the mobile app, it seems to always buffer and doesn't go that far into the future. The main reason I usually want to see radar (living in SW Colorado) is to see storms coming through, or what type of precip will happen, which the weather forecast will offer, but the radar won't show that well.
I love wunderweather and use it both personally and professionally. I will say I like its interface and ease of use, but if you're going SOLELY on correct weather patterns, I would use a different service, like NOAA.

Retrieved Text: Weather forecasting has come a long way in recent years, but there are some forecasts that you just can't trust.
Finding a weather forecast is easier than ever these days. Open up a mobile app, go online, turn on the TV, read the newspaper or listen to the radio and you'll find a weather forecast. If you're enthusiastic enough, you can even access weather models online and have a go at producing a forecast yourself.
However, despite the exceptional advancements in forecasting during recent years, there are still some firm limitations on how far ahead we can accurately predict the weather.
Day-to-day weather forecasts come from powerful supercomputers that run complex mathematical models to predict how the atmosphere will change during the next few days. These models, which are called Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) models, sift through millions of real-life observations and solve complex mathematical equations to predict how the atmosphere will change in the near-future.
Today's NWP models give us a pretty good idea of what the weather will be like, at any location on Earth, during the next few days. Their accuracy starts to wane beyond four days into the future and looking out more than a week becomes more of a rough guide than a discreet forecast.
When you start to look at what the weather might be like beyond the next fortnight, NWP models are unreliable and forecasters start to look at something else: climatology and climate models.
Climatology refers to what type of weather a location typically experiences at a given time of year based on its

We made your journey even shorter as we’ve already gathered the weather station accuracy numbers on most of the units we’ve reviewed here at wxobservation.com. They can be found on each individual station’s review page. As you will likely notice very quickly when looking through our reviews, it’s common for the best home weather stations to also be some of the most accurate.
By purchasing high quality components from proven brands like the ones we’ve reviewed on this site, you’ll find they are more reliable and more accurate than cheaper models. Spending a few extra bucks now could save you from buying add-on after add-on later trying to make your home weather station more accurate through aftermarket components. Some of the low-end weather stations use very light weight, cheap plastic components that might not make it through some tough storms. Once the anemometer gets bent or the sensors damaged, it’ll be even less accurate than before.
These are a good rule of thumb for what you can expect out of the best home weather stations.

Retrieved Text: Think about what you know about weather patterns and weather reports. What do you think causes weather?
I think weather is maybe caused by how the Earth revolves around the sun in a way because since it moves around it, since the sun shines in different places on Earth at different times it could cause it to change.
I claim weather is caused by many ways, for example like condensation, precipitation, evaporation, ect. With condensation it is when water vapor turns into liquid. When there is precipitation it is rain, snow, sleet, hail, ect. With evaporation its when liquid turns into water vapor and goes into the atmosphere.
I think that air masses, cold fronts, warm fronts, and varying amounts of pressure in the atmosphere causes weather to change. I claim this because when two air masses collide it causes bad weather. When a cold front comes it brings cold and stormy weather. When a warm front comes it brings warm and fair weather. Low pressure produces condensation which creates clouds and high pressure does not produce clouds so there is fair weather and no precipitation.
I claim that the water cycle is a huge factor in what causes weather. My evidence is when there is warm weather, the water is going to evaporate. Then the water will condensate and form clouds. When the temperature is colder and there are clouds, there will most likely be precipitation.
I think weather depends on the atmosphere and the sun because weather is in the atmosphere and the sun can make it hot and

Currently on Mars NASA has land based weather stations on the rovers and a few satellites orbiting the planet that help to predict the weather. They also use Earth based telescopes to look at the Martian atmosphere similar to what an orbiting satellite would . These resources provide information about what the weather is like on the surface and what the weather looks like from space but there is little information from inside the atmosphere. Having a device that can fly through the atmosphere and collect data would enable scientists to generate more accurate models of the weather on Mars.Another use for these devices could be to get aerial photographs of the planet, which could help to determine possible sites for future exploration. Also the Martian air could be collected and analyzed to determine its composition and whether there could be any airborne signs of life. The research presented in this thesis is a first step towards designing a device to fly on Mars and take weather data. A lifting type is selected and through test flights on Earth the design is modified until a workable platform for flight testing is achieved. Once it is determined, the design is scaled to be able to fly in the Martian atmosphere.

Although meteorology is a complicated science, just looking at the clouds can tell us much about the upcoming weather. Observing and identifying cloud types is a great way to get kids outside, help them hone their prediction-making skills, and even learn some Latin!
Most of us are familiar with various types of clouds, like the big dark ones that build up before a thunderstorm, or the puffy ones that float by on a sunny day. However, you may not know their Latin influenced names like Cumulonimbus or Cumulus. Although the multi-syllabic names may seem daunting, they are actually pretty easy to break down and understand.
Most cloud names come from just a few Latin roots. Cumulus means “heap” and are the fluffy, puffy clouds we see on a nice day. Cirrus means “curl of hair” and are the thin wispy clouds you see high in the sky before a storm arrives. Stratus are the blanket-like clouds that cover the sky on an overcast day, and Nimbus are dark rainy clouds.
Once you’ve learned these roots you can easily combine them to make one of those big cloud names like Cumulonimbus (puffy, dark storm clouds) and Cirrostratus (wispy clouds that blanket the entire sky).

In-wall speakers can be mounted on a variety of flat wall surfaces and provide excellent sound for home theater applications, as well as whole house audio. Typically rectangular in shape (although OSD does offer square models), in-wall speakers take up far less space than traditional box speakers and wires are neatly concealed behind the wall. Wall speakers can even be painted to match a room décor—a favorite feature among interior decorators. Most in-wall speakers use the wall cavity as their enclosure or cabinet; however, boxes can be purchased for new home construction projects that create a solid, resonant-free enclosure. In-wall speakers come with special screws (called dog ears) that flip out and secure to the drywall (or other wall surfaces), a nearby stud, or a special frame attached to the studs. Custom installation frames (brackets) can also be purchased for a more secure fit or for lighter wall materials that require more support. In wall speakers are often categorized by the size of the woofer, not the size of the speaker itself, so a 6½” in-wall speaker has a 6½ woofer.
What Is An In-Ceiling Speaker?
In-ceiling speakers are very similar to in-wall speakers in form and function except that they are round in shape and slightly smaller in size. In-ceiling speakers are usually a little lighter and less noticeable than in-wall speakers, and like in-wall speakers, come with dog ears and can be mounted in either a ceiling or a wall.

Whether you are fitting four new speakers, or just adding an extra pair to your existing system, the choice is vast. Below are some old speakers and fader controls from Pioneer. A TS-VX700 is a surface-mounted wedge-type rear speaker. B TS-R800 mounts into the rear parcel shelf. C TS-X30 is a surface-mounted rear speaker. D TS-1612 flush-mounted speaker for use in front or rear locations. E AD-940 fader control. F UD-780A fader control.
Conversely, if the speakers are fitted at the front of the car - and they are usually low down in the door panels - the sound in the back can be muffled by the seats.
The solution to this problem is to fit a four-speaker system, with two speakers mounted in the front and two in the rear.
For the front of the car you will probably find that the door panels are the best, if not the only, location available, though some cars have speaker positions built into each side of the dash.
In the rear of the car you can again mount the speakers in the doors (or the side panels on a two-door car), or on or under the parcel shelf.

This guide helps to explain the speaker positioning options for the various speaker numbers and combinations. We have another guide which helps to explain the various surround sound formats.
We are always happy to offer advice, and regularly assess room layouts and speaker positioning for our customers.
Good old fashioned stereo – still the format most used for Radio and Music, after all we only have two ears!
For a high quality system, the stereo speakers will tend to vanish with a full 3D soundstage presented in front of the listener. This works only when all of the components used are phase-linear, meaning that all of the frequencies arrive at your ear at the same time, and in phase with each other. Our ears are very sensitive to the phase of an audio signal, and the brain uses the phase and timing to determine where a sound is coming from.
Adding a Sub to a stereo pair of speakers brings you to 2.1. This format has been largely dismissed by HiFi aficionados, as the timing (phase again) between the sub and stereo pair has to be accurate for it to sound good. This format should not be discounted, as it means that you can

Horn Speakers reproduce very high frequencies. There are two parts to a Horn Speaker. The horn itself is the visible part that looks a little bit like a giant funnel. The horn driver is bolted onto the back of the horn and actually produces the sound.
There are two types of horn driver, Piezo based horns are relatively cheap and compression horns are comparatively more expensive. The only major difference is the volume (measured in dB Sound Pressure Level SPL). Piezo horns cannot produce high SPL and are easily blown while compression drivers are capable of producing ear splitting loud Sound Pressure Levels.
Horn speakers are extremely directional so you can only hear the high frequencies where you point the speaker. They also require very little power to produce very high SPL's.
Mid range speakers are usually small speakers (from 5" up to 15" in size) that produce the frequencies below those that a horn can efficiently produce and above the frequencies of a Sub Woofer (120Hz upwards). They are usually a traditional speaker design. Mid range speakers are moderately directional and the higher the quality of the speaker cabinet, the more directional the mid range frequencies will be. Mid range speakers require a moderate amount of power to produce high SPL's.

If the amp makes 220W into 4 ohms, it will make roughly 1/2 that at 8 ohms (say 110W for this discussion) this is well within the speaker and amps capability so no smoke will be released.
If you connect two of those speakers to one amp channel each speaker will draw 110W and consume the 220W capability of the amp.

Sound Solutions was awarded the contract to redo the entire sound system for the pool, public areas, workout room and aerobics area at the Walnut Grove Community Centre in the Township of Langley.
The decade-old sound system had numerous problems, mostly exasperated by a hostile pool environment. Chlorine and moisture will shorten the life of sound system equipment if not carefully chosen to suit the installation.
The workout and aerobics areas had two sound system racks with an AM/FM tuner, a cassette deck and a CD player, along with associated controls.

The rotary controls on the preamplifier were intermittent, and sound would cut in and out at random in both the workout and aerobics areas. Finally, the wireless headset mics were falling apart due to heavy use, and reception of the mic was intermittent and noisy.

The greater the distance the more it impacts performance. This is why ceiling speakers tend to work best with TV’s that are mounted high on the wall. This reduces the distance between the two. Projector screens work perfectly with ceiling speakers.
In-wall speakers on the other hand are best suited for the front wall around the TV display. There is no denying they add to the aesthetic beauty of a room however from a performance point of view, they truly shine when placed on the front wall. This is the best choice for audio/video lockup. The user is properly positioned to face the dispersion patterns of the speakers.
No matter which speaker you chose, insulation must be kept in mind at all times. Ceiling speakers and in-wall speakers need

Stock cabinets are typically produced in two inch increments. In some simple kitchen layouts such as a great L shaped kitchen you may lay cabinets out with little problem. But what do you perform when you are fitting cabinets among two walls? Well in this situatio the cabinet dealer can supply you with filler pieces to consider any large gaps that could eventually occur by using cabinets that are built within two inch increments. These storage filler pieces can be slice to fit the remaining gap comparatively well. The main disadvantage with stock kitchen cabinets is the aforementioned incremental sizing nevertheless also the quality. Although as with anything the lower to core range priced stock cabinets are typically made from thinner supplies and have economy hardware just like cabinet door hinges and drawer slides. There are a few advantages with using stock cabinetry the first one that comes to mind is cost. Since stock cabinets happen to be mass produced they can be quite affordable. An additional is speed, in most cases sellers have access to larger warehouses where the cabinets are stored, and you may have your stock cupboard order within a few short weeks or in some cases times.

As a certified financial planner I specialize in working with entrepreneurs, from startup through exit, on their financial planning to help them realize their hopes, dreams & goals.

This is why People Talking About This (PTAT) is the ultimate metric on Facebook.
Now, if you ask any marketer to choose between People Talking About This and the number of fans they have, or to choose between People Talking About This and the number of people they reach, any honest Facebook marketer will admit that they fantasize about millions of people sharing their content. And while they might brag about reach to their boss, they certainly don’t fantasize about it.
Why do marketers brag about reach?
If brands ultimately care about people talking about them on Facebook, why is there such an emphasis on increasing reach and fans? Especially because increasing reach and fans doesn’t lead to an increase in virality.
Maybe overvaluing reach and fan quantity is a carryover from pre-social marketing practices: impressions, eyeballs, exposure, etc.

In any case, your biggest problem is not the other big recruitment firm. The real issue is getting the attention of your clients.
Your potential clients are going to your competition because they know how to get their attention.

From this we can get an idea of what people are talking about when they say they are using gamification to engage people, or increase engagement. They are generally looking to get people to participate in activities. That tends to be the key goal for most gamification, participation.
So here is the thing. When people play a game, they play because they want to play. They participate because it is their desire to participate and be involved. When people use a gamified system, it is very often not their desire that drives entry, but the desire of whoever set the system up. This is a really important distinction.

I recently attended an event with a speaker in the front of the room sharing what we had all come to hear, but the two ladies in front of me were talking to each other so loudly that I couldn’t hear the speaker. What made it even worse was that the event was mainly for kids and they were chaperoning a group of students.

B2B Telemarketing and lead generating after all, has a very different dynamic than that of B2C. However, it is still difficult to get right. Getting it right has a lot to do with the decision-maker.
Someone you’ve never heard of says ‘Hi, how are you doing today?’ Seriously??
They speak too quickly, rattling off a tonne of information leaving you feeling like you don’t know who they are, what they do or why they rang you.
They assume you’re dying to spend money with them. They assume you’re a complete idiot and they’re here to save the day.They get a bit shirty when you close the call insisting you are not interested.

By far the most effective use of your Telemarketing time is having good quality data. Data you can rely on to be clean and up-to-date. Data that you can closely target your audience with. This means that you know that you are going to be talking to the right person in the right industry about what you do.

Good talking is CLEAR. Make certain that people can understand what you’re saying, and don’t just have a “snowy picture” of it. You need to describe things well. You need to make sure that you aren’t confusing your listener!
Good talking is SPECIFIC. Sending a message effectively means giving your listener all the necessary information. Don’t be vague or general when you talk. Include details that can help the other person know exactly what you’re talking about.
Good talking is HONEST. For your message to do the most good, it needs to be honest. Don’t say something you really don’t think or feel, or that doesn’t match the facts.
Good talking is TACTFUL. Being tactful means being kind. You have to think about others feelings before you speak. You do want to be direct, clear, specific, and honest with them. But you don’t want to say things accidentally or on purpose that will hurt them unnecessarily. Words can hurt.

In order to try to retain information long term, we must move it from our short-term memory to our long-term memory. One of the best ways to do that is through repetition. The more we review information, and the sooner we review once we initially learn it, the more reinforced that information is in our long-term memory.
The first step in being able to review is to take notes when you are originally learning the information. Students who do not take notes in class in the first place will not be able to recall all of the information covered in order to best review.
Taking notes during lectures is a skill, just like riding a bike. If you have never taken notes while someone else is speaking before, it’s important to know that you will not be an expert at it right away.

Given all the press around the Flipped Classroom, Khan Academy, and Ted-Ed, long overdue discussions around the use of lectures in the classroom have evolved. Educators are questioning when, how, and what types of lectures best serve and address student learning.
Along with this development, research is being conducted with students about how they want to be taught and what they learn via a lecture model of education. For example, according to “Learn Now, Lecture Later,” a new report released by CDW-G, only 23% of students are satisfied with the way the teachers spend their class time.
Along with surveying students about their preferences, educators are examining best classroom practices. Eric Mazur, a Harvard Physics professor, has been promoting the removal of lectures from the college classroom.
This is part of a movement as Physicists Seek To Lose The Lecture As Teaching Tool, and Mazur has become a type of ambassador for losing the lecture in higher education settings.
At an educational technology conference, Building Learning Communities (BLC) conference, Harvard University physics professor Eric Mazur used a simple experiment to drive home his point that lecturing is an outdated—and largely ineffective—strategy for imparting knowledge. He participants to think of a skill they were good at, then explain how they mastered this skill. While the responses from the crowd varied—some cited practice or experience, while others said trial and error—no one answered “lecture,” Mazur noted wryly.

Scrolling through Facebook and Twitter, we can often forget just how useful a lecture can actually be. But, with a few tips you’ll soon be on your way to getting the most out of your lectures, and you might find that you actually enjoy them!
Prepare in advance – Often, many lecturers put their slides or handouts online in advance, giving you a great opportunity to prepare. At the very least, you’re likely to know what topic will be covered. Either way, doing a little bit of background research before your lecture will enable you to remain more focused, as you won’t be sat there thinking what on earth does this mean?!
If you’ve got a long day ahead of you, bring snacks – Keeping hydrated and having energy throughout the day is incredibly important for your concentration. Drink plenty of water, and take some healthy snacks with you so that your energy levels don’t drop. Plus, what’s worse than hearing your stomach rumble in a quiet lecture theatre?!
Sit in a good position – Studies show that sitting in the middle of a lecture theatre, at the front, can significantly increase how much information you take in. This way, you’ll be forced to pay attention as you’ll be right in the lecturer’s eye line!

He began by asking: "How many of you are really serious about being writers?" All hands shot up. "Well, why the hell aren't you all home writing?" And he walked out.
Other versions say he sat down. Whatever he did, that was the end of the lecture.

For one excuse, I know that once I am actually facing the computer screen, time will slip by and the next thing, ten hours will have passed. No laundry done, no dishes washed, no plants watered—you get the picture. But if I were to do all that first, when would I write?
And then, there are all those enticing webinars and web packages on writing, all those how-to-make-money-writing web offers (and how easy it is to make money writing!) for which, of course, there are fees up to nearly $200.

Many know Delphi for the sacred Oracle a priestess who sat on a tripod in the sanctuary of Apollo, making utterances that were later interpreted and used by important people from all over the ancient world. However, in his lecture he created a spectacular vision including every aspect of the details of this ancient town of Delphi down to music competitions, theatres, the Delphic games, how the Romans couldn’t resist the temptation of making their mark in the Sanctuary of Apollo and many more aspects.

How does Sales for a lecture agency differ from other marketplaces?
Bill Hart: Sales doesn’t differ much industry to industry. The most important thing is understanding your customer’s goals, their challenges, and what success looks like for them. You must know your offering completely and how it fits with their needs. Helping them succeed remains constant.

To take effective notes, you should prepare for the lecture or reading. You should think about what you want to know, what the lecture or material is about, and how it is relevant to your own work.
If you are preparing for a lecture, you can start by reading your module handbook to find out what the lecture will be about and what the learning outcomes are. Make sure that you familiarise yourself with new ideas, terms or language by consulting recommended texts. Your tutor may have recommended some preparatory reading, and Wikipedia can also be helpful for an overview of unfamiliar topics. Consider how the lecture material relates to your assignments and identify the key points that you need to note down.
It might also help to review your notes from previous lectures so you can make connections between each lecture.
If you are preparing to read texts, ask yourself what you need to get from your reading. Do you need an overview, case studies and examples, definitions, or ideas and evidence to support your own argument?

Move around the room while you speak. Don’t stand at the board and lecture. If students know exactly where you stand at all times they can hide from you and whisper without being seen. Walk in between the rows of desks. Check for understanding constantly by asking random students questions about what you are covering. If students know that at any point they could be called on to answer a question they are more likely to pay attention. If a group of students is talking during your instruction move over to that side of the room. Be sure to ask one of those students a question on what you just said. If the talking/disrespecting is really bad you will need to stop the lecture entirely, but in most cases it can be stopped by following these steps.
Some teachers are more tolerant of talking during class. A student of yours could be used to classes where quiet private off task conversations are allowed or ignored.

There are men who sometimes think about their wife being with previous lovers and it generates strong, unpleasant, unhappy feelings within them. For some men, it’s so strong that it “hurts” or even makes them “sick”.
The word we use for these feelings is “jealous”.
However, here’s what a man needs to know…he must first “do” something in order to “feel” jealous. Specifically, HE MUST USE HIS MIND AGAINST HIMSELF! He must use his mind in a non-useful way.
Knowing that what’s important to a woman is how the man in her life makes her feel about herself and him, there’s no way a man dwelling on these non-useful scenarios can make his wife feel good about herself or him.
And so, she will eventually leave. That’s why she left all those previous lovers too.
What she doesn’t want is some guy who’s stuck in the past and dwelling upon the other men that she’s been with. What she doesn’t want is some guy who is a “project” that she has to try to “hold together” so he doesn’t “fall apart”. What she doesn’t want is a guy who’s constantly drowning in self-pity that she constantly has to “rescue”.
She wants a man with love in his heart – not jealousy – because she wants to be loved. She wants a man who desires her – not who’s thinking about her and men she’s been with before – because she wants a lover. She wants a strong, secure man – not some mental and emotional weakling

Executive producer Avi Arad hopes to shepherd another series of films for "The Amazing Spider-Man."
As the man in charge of Spider-Man’s Hollywood destiny, producer Avi Arad knows better than most that with great power comes great responsibility.
In the wake of director Sam Raimi’s popular trilogy of “Spider-Man” films starring Tobey Maguire and produced for Columbia Pictures by Arad, a decision was made to re-launch the franchise less than a decade after it first came to the screen with this week's "Amazing Spider-Man." Arad – the former CEO of Toy Biz who became the chief creative officer of Marvel Comics and later Marvel Studios from 2002 to 2007 before exiting to start his own production company – stayed at the web-head’s executive helm, handing the creative reigns over to director Marc Webb and his team and helping him land the new leads Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone.
Arad tells PopcornBiz about why the new team was the right one to weave Spider-Man’s next cinematic yarn, and just how far ahead the new franchise has been planned.

it will be more like a Tom Clancy-thriller, with Iron Man fighting real world villians.
The source also claims that Black said he’ll be writing the script, and that it will have no Marvel superhero crossovers. Of course the reality of that will be decided in the weeks leading up to the release, which is when Marvel seems to throw in their cameos (Thor and Captain America cameos were just recently shot).

If you’re like me, waking up in the morning can be challenging. Hearing my loud alarm go off in the AM sometimes scares me to death and other times I can’t hear it at all. So how can this problem be solved? There’s an app for that!
Sleep Cycle is a Swiss-made iPhone app that offers a new approach to the way we wake up. During the night, we drift back and forth between light and deep sleep cycles; the key to feeling rested and relaxed is to wake up during the light sleep phase. The Sleep Cycle App claims to be able to help you do just that.
Placed under your pillow, Sleep Cycle uses a sensor called accelerometer that lets your mobile device track your movements throughout the night. Since your movement during sleep varies between the different stages of sleep, Sleep Cycle is able to track what stage of sleep you are in. As you approach the light sleep phase it will gently wake you up. It even lets you use your own mp3 music as a wake up tune. Just remember to charge your phone during the night as the app is constantly working and may drain your battery.
Do you use Sleep Cycle already – tell us how well it works for you.

If you are looking for a way to make sure your employees are clocking in and out for their breaks, you can do this in the Settings section of your Timestation. One of the main purposes of this question is to add a column to the breaks report helping you remain compliant with GDPR.
Previously, on the Timestation, the only way to record that an employee had taken their break was to turn on “Allow employees to clock out for breaks”. This would give employees the option to clock out for their break and clock back in at the end of it. However, workers often forget to record their break times.
There is now another setting to turn the breaks question on or off!

Only top-5 nationally ranked University of Arkansas and the University of Texas, which received votes in the most recent coaches poll, are ranked higher than SMU.
The American’s women’s teams will start the day with a 6,000-meter race at 11 a.m. Then the men’s teams will run an 8,000-meter race at 11:50 a.m.
The Temple News asked several American Athletic Conference coaches about Thursday’s race and how they’re preparing their teams for the course.
The race will be at The Golf Course at Audubon Park, which has never been used for a cross country meet of this significance before, Tulane coach Eric Peterson said, making its debut special for the conference championships.
“It’s a beautiful park, and just like all of New Orleans it’s very flat and there aren’t many hills,” Peterson added.

After signing a one-year deal following a season-ending injury to rookie Derrius Guice, Peterson carried the ball more than he had since 2015 and racked up 1,042 yards to go along with seven rushing touchdowns. In doing so, the 33-year-old Peterson became the oldest 1,000-yard rusher since the 1980s, when former Redskins great John Riggins accomplished the feat in 1984.
But in talking with Redskins.com on Monday afternoon, shortly after re-signing a multi-year deal with the team, Peterson downplayed last year's gaudy totals.
"I feel like last year was just a decent season, like for me in my mind," Peterson said. "People were like, 'Wow, you did incredible, you had 1,000 yards.' And I'm like, 'Man, I should have had 15, 16 hundred yards.'"
Peterson has never felt like he's had something to prove, though he admitted it has felt that way recently based on some people believing that he's too old to produce like a featured back. Well, Peterson silenced those doubters to the tune of 4.2 yards per carry on 251 rushing attempts, and he cannot wait to build on that success in what should be a loaded backfield in 2019.
"Just coming back and being able to produce and help this team win a championship," Peterson said when asked about what he's focused on entering the upcoming season. "Be a great leader, not only by how I work but vocally as well. Just come in and have a way better season than I had last

Peterson has not fought since losing to Errol “The Truth” Spence (25-0, 21KOs). The fight was stopped in the 7th round of that bout when his corner threw in the towel. He stayed in the pocket too much and tried to bang with “The Boogeyman”, and it cost him big. He took a beating. After such a long layoff, where is he mentally? How much ring rust will he have? Can he still compete at the top level of the welterweight division? Is he going to put himself back in the mix or become a gatekeeper at 147lbs? A lot of questions to be answered. This is a classic 50-50 toss up fight. If Peterson stays out of the pocket, utilizes his height and reach to his advantage, and boxes, rather than trying to brawl… he could win this fight. My biggest worry is that he took too much time off, but I hope I’m wrong.
In the other corner, Lipinets is coming off a majority decision victory over welterweight journeyman Erick Bone (22-6, 10KOs). It was his first fight at 147, and this fight a good step up in competition to gauge where he is at. Peterson did have the long layoff but he is still a quality opponent at 147lbs.

The result is that any serious reflection on Peterson by his followers is avoided. Although there are plenty of examples where Peterson’s views are misrepresented, this does not mean that every form of thorough questioning is an invalid critique or a misrepresentation. However, many of his followers take his words as the absolute truth, and him as an all-knowing guide. For a lot of Peterson’s followers, no form of doubt seems allowed.

Speaking to reporters at the NFL meetings on Tuesday, Giants coach Ben McAdoo said he doesn’t see why Smith, 26, can’t someday take over for Manning, 36.

"There's a couple guys that's been kind of hesitant to come up and hit me, so I've been hitting the ground a couple times and lowering my shoulder thinking I'm about to take on contact," Peterson said Wednesday, addressing reporters for the first time in two months.

Adrian Peterson, the star running back for the Minnesota Vikings, was indicted on charges of reckless or negligent injury to a child and won't play this weekend.
Reports emerged on Friday afternoon that Peterson had been charged in Montgomery County in Texas, northwest of Houston for beating the child with a "switch," or a tree branch that's been stripped of leaves. The Montgomery County Sheriff's Office released a statement two hours later that a warrant had been issued for Peterson's arrest, and images of the boy's welts surfaced online.
Rusty Hardin, Peterson's attorney, released a statement confirming the indictment and calling Peterson "a loving parent who used his judgment as a parent to discipline his son" shortly after the news broke.
TMZ reported that the alleged victim is a male child from Minnesota who was visiting Peterson in Texas in May. Peterson is one of the most popular and high-profile players in the NFL. He was named NFL MVP in 2008 and led the league in rushing in 2008 and 2012.

It is always fascinating to watch someone become an object of intense admiration, creating not just fans but "followers." The example I can think of before Jordan Peterson is Ayn Rand. Both figures not only caught the rapt attention of a percentage of the public but have done so with ideas.
And a type of charisma, of course! It takes some charisma to be in the business of selling ideas on topics as easily-avoided by mainstream media as morality!
This helps explain an interesting challenge Peterson got from podcast host Joe Rogan. (At nine minutes in you can view this discussion here.) Rogan, a major fan of Peterson, asked why Peterson recommends that men become "monsters," as Hitler also gets described by Peterson as a "monster." Rogan would like a distinction to be made between when Peterson condemns being a "monster" and when he is recommending being a "monster." Peterson seems a bit taken aback by this request, but finally responds that the difference is that you do not want to become a monster "accidentally."
Is this helpful? Rogan does not seem convinced, and I imagine listeners cannot follow with any understanding, either.
These are the not the kind of concepts that are used in contemporary accounts of morality, even though the topic "how to be" receives intense scrutiny in research from multiple fields.
Of course, the public is not interested in reading academic studies or research. So a lot can be gained by avoiding this

Father: Wait, wait, wait. Where are you going?

Daughter: Mom said I could take the car to school this morning, and ...

Father: Hold on here. I've prepared a few rules regarding the use of the motor vehicles in this house.

Daughter: Like what?

Father: Let me get my notes here.

Daughter: Dad! That looks like a book? Mom, Dad's being mean to me.

Father: Okay, let me get my reading glasses here. Okay, here we are. Rule number one: No driving with friends for the first six months.

Daughter: What?

Father: Teenagers often lack the judgment to drive responsibly, especially when several teenagers are involved. I mean they speed, they joyride, they cruise around town way past midnight.

Daughter: But that's not me! Do I really need this lecture? This is such a drag!

Father: Furthermore, who really needs a car when a pair of shoes will work? I mean, life was different when I was your age. In fact, I used to walk to school ...

Daughter: Yeah, yeah. I know. Both ways uphill in ten feet of snow. I've heard this story many times.

Father: Yeah. Oh, where were we? Oh yes. Rule number two: You always must wear your seat belt and obey the rules of the road.

Daughter: Duh. I wasn't born yesterday.

Father: Okay, rule number three: You can't drive long distances at night because you might get drowsy and drive off the road. But driving to the movie theater is fine.

Daughter: But the movie theater is right across the street from our house.

Father: Exactly, so you can just park in the driveway and walk there.

Daughter: Mom! Dad's being unreasonable.

Father: And rule number four: You should never use a cell phone while driving. That could cause an accident.

Daughter: But YOU do.

Father: That's different.

Daughter: How's it different? You even need my help to turn your cell phone on.

However, one Howland High School student hopes that raising awareness about drugs will help prevent those numbers from increasing.
Junior Lindsey Shrodek launched an awareness campaign at the beginning of the year as part of service project through Girl Scouts. Her efforts to not only raise awareness, but also construct the Howland Hope Garden outside of the high school gymnasium entrance has earned her the Girl Scout’s highest honor, the Gold Award.
Through her research, Shrodek learned that some people who struggle with drug addiction also struggle to cope, which is why they turn to drugs. In an effort to showcase other methods of coping, Shrodek decided to set up informational booths at school events and sell rocks that people could paint. When people would purchase Promise Rocks, Shrodek would engage in a conversation with them and share information about drug addiction and treatment. The money raised from the sale of the rocks has allowed Shrodek to purchase plants for the Howland Hope Garden, statues with inspirational sayings and 11 lanterns to represent each student who has died. There is also a mailbox in the garden that is full of information about treatment services available in Trumbull County.
In June, Shrodek will be recognized for her work and awarded her Gold Award.

However, I can remember that magic. Being a little girl and searching my living room for eggs. Eggs that I had colored and decorated the night before. I can remember getting my Easter basket and being so excited to see what treats were waiting for me. It was a fun time. I can't wait doing that for Max!

It starts with the interest of a girl with you and curiosity. On this basis, you can gradually build a lasting appeal with each woman. Awakening of this interest and curiosity; Here are some tips that can help you.
Trust is the only mandatory feature you need to attract a woman. And women can immediately see if you have confidence in yourself or not, simply by looking at body language. For example, if you consider yourself “small” in your environment, women will see you as a lack of trust. The first step in dressing a girl is to make sure that there is a body language. Keep the body moving in peace and control. Be big Do not be afraid to occupy space and need space around you. If it is difficult because you feel nervousness or discomfort, breath slowly and deeply, focusing on the feelings of the body (do you feel your feet?). It helps to relax and naturally develop a certain body language.
Every girl wants to laugh. And there is no better time to prove that you have this ability than at the beginning of the conversation. Make the girl laugh earlier and help him relax and talk to you.

Suddenly the crowd erupts in a unified, deafening cheer; the background noise being Bec and her band shuffling atop the meagre stage.

Independent: a sovereign state. 4. Excellent. If you use this correct definition, then yes, God is sovereign.

The first step in setting up Caller ID Routing is to decide where you want to route the call. You need to do this step first because the destination you want to route to needs to be created before you create the Caller ID routing rule.
If the destination already exists or doesn't need to be created (e.g. routing to an outside number), you can skip to step 2.
In this example we are going to set up a Caller ID Routing rule for "Anonymous" callers. Since we don't want to be bothered by spam or telemarketer calls, we are just going to play a "SIT" or disconnect tone and end the call. To do this we first need to create an "Announcement mailbox". This lets us upload our disconnect tone for us to use in the Caller ID Routing.
To learn how to create an "Announcement Mailbox" see the article below.

The equation has many solutions, but all of them satisfy the constraint that the variables x1 through x4 must encode possible initial conditions and evolution histories for rule 110. If one fills in fixed values for x1, x2 and x3, then only one value for x4 is ever possible—corresponding to the evolution history of rule 110 for x3 steps starting from a width x1 initial condition given by the digit sequence of x2. In general any statement about the possible behavior of rule 110 can be encoded as a statement in arithmetic about solutions to the equation. So for example if one fills in values for x1, x2 and x4, but not x3, then the statement that the equation has no solution for any x3 corresponds to a statement that rule 110 can never exhibit certain behavior, even after any number of steps. But the universality of rule 110 implies that such statements must in general be undecidable. So from this it follows that in at least some instances the axioms of arithmetic can never be used to give a finite proof of whether or not the statement is true. The construction shown here can be viewed as providing a simple proof of Gödel's Theorem on the existence of unprovable statements in arithmetic.

I’ve taken an excerpt from my book, Practical Salesforce.com Development Without Code, and updated it for what I intend to be a helpful blog post for workflow developers / administrators.
The one thing you’re guaranteed to find in every active instance of Salesforce is interaction. It is a given that your users will add, edit, and/or remove data from your org on a regular basis. Consider these updates to Salesforce as the first step in your automation efforts . The second step is making Salesforce do what you want based on that initial user interaction with no further manual activity from users. In this post, we’ll examine how to make that happen with workflow rules.
Workflow rules look for a particular state of specific data (your criteria).
The workflow rules “fire” (i.e., become active) if the state of the data satisfies the configured criteria.
The workflow rules trigger designated, automated actions to occur.
Through this process, your organization has taken an additional step forward using process automation. Whether you use workflow rules to notify a colleague that further action is needed or you update a field to reflect the current state of data, you have ensured that some desired action will happen and you did it all with a small, one-time investment of your cerebral efforts as opposed to an ongoing, manual activity.

Explanation: Identifier is a simple name given to any constant, variable, signal, entity, port or a subprogram. A name must begin with alphabetic letter. It may contain alphanumeric characters and underscore sign. Reserved words of VHDL can’t be used as identifiers.
2. What is the use of shift operators?
Explanation: Shift operators are used to shifting of data. These operators were introduced in the VHDL93.
3. What is the “SLL” operator?
Explanation: SLL is a shift operator used to shift bits of the operand to one left position and fills the rightmost position with zero. Shift Left Logical(SLL) operator will shift the bits logically. For example, we had data 0100 in the operand, then after applying SLL, we will get 1000.
Explanation: SLL and SRL operators can shift the operands of vector type. It may be BIT_VECTOR type or STD_LOGIC_VECTOR type. The left operand is shifted towards left or right depending on the operator with number of shifts represented by right operand which always must be an INTEGER type.
5. Refer to the code given below, what should be the output of the identifier ‘y’ and ‘z’?
Explanation: SRL operator will shift the operand towards right and SLL will shift the same towards left. All the left bits will be filled with zero in SRL operation and in SLL right bits will be filled with zero. Therefore, y must be x shifted towards right with 2 positions.
Explanation: SRA and SLA expands to Shift Right Arithmetically and Shift Left Arithmetically

The PHP Data Objects (PDO) defines a lightweight interface for accessing databases in PHP. It provides a data-access abstraction layer for working with databases in PHP. It defines consistent API for working with various database systems.
The PDO represents a connection between PHP and a database server. The PDOStatement represents a prepared statement and, after the statement is executed, an associated result set. The PDOException represents an error raised by PDO.
In this tutorial, we work with MySQL database.
These SQL commands create a countries table.
The PDO query() executes an SQL statement in a single function call, returning the result set (if any) returned by the statement.
The example returns the version of MySQL.
These variables are used to create a connection string to the database. The dsn is the Data Source Name, which contains the information required to connect to the database.
A new PDO object is created. We pass the constructor the data source name and the user name and password. The PDO class represents a connection between PHP and a database server.
The query() method executes an SQL statement in a single function call. It returns the result set.
The PDO statement's fetch() method fetches the next row from a result set. In our case it is a version of MySQL.

The existing threshold in the monitor and the number of consecutive failures in the alert rules are moved to new CRITICAL level thresholds created in the monitor. There will be as many CRITICAL level thresholds created in the monitor as there were distinct numbers of consecutive failures in the existing alert rules.
All alert rules are updated to be mapped to the newly created CRITICAL thresholds. Each alert rule is mapped to the threshold with the same number of consecutive failures as it was in the alert rule before migration.
Alert rules will trigger and alerts will be sent whenever the threshold the rule is linked to is violated.
These are legacy alert rules. You can change them from threshold based to state based by mapping them to the CRITICAL or WARNING state of the monitor instead of the specific thresholds that they are tied to.
Once changed to state based the rule can’t be rolled back to threshold based.
Example: before migration to Alerts 2.0 the user had 5 alert rules in his Drive monitor, 2 of which were set to alert upon 1 failure, 2 were set to alert upon 2 failures, and 1 was set to alert upon 3 failures. There were thus three distinct numbers of failures in the monitor’s alert rules: 1, 2 and 3.

There is also a printable text version to download, and an inspiring video reading of this prayer.
For in him (Christ) all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him".
• Christ created ALL things. (Col 1:18) Hence Christ is not a created being, as Christ created everything. He also can not be an angel or archangel as these are all beings created by God. He can only be God Himself. Furthermore, Christ is of one being (or "consubstantial") with the Father. This has scriptural resonance when we consider that Christ says of His relationship with the Father "I and the Father are One" (John 10:30, NIV) and God is often recorded as acting in the plural in the Old Testament, for example, in Genesis 1:26 God says "Let us make man in our image". The confession of this creed explicitly refutes the claims of Arianism, a view popularised by Arius in around AD 300 that the Father is pre-eminent over the Son, and that Christ is a created being.

For example, a confidence level of 95 percent means that the result of an action will probably meet expectations 95 percent of the time. When physicists search for a signal of the Higgs boson, they select particle collisions with observed characteristics similar to those a Higgs production would feature. The result of this data selection will always include background events, i.e. ones which did not involve a Higgs boson decay, but are anyway individually undistinguishable from the signal. The existence of the Higgs boson would however increase the number of selected events, so one may compare the number of selected events with the predicted yield from known backgrounds alone, to make a statistical statement about the Higgs production rate. If the number of observed events is close to the background prediction, then one can rule out a sizable contribution from the Higgs boson decay signal, which would have created an excess of events. Given a signal rate and a background prediction, one can compute the probability that a total number of events smaller or equal to the ones observed is seen. Signal rates for which the probability would be smaller than 5% are then said to be "excluded at 95% confidence level". Note that the choice of 95% as a division line between what is allowed or excluded by the data is arbitrary, and has merely historical justification.

However, it may be convenient to assign an annotation to your data points and then calculate format values based on the annotation. This is where the id field is useful—this field does not directly impact the way the data point is displayed, but tags it with a string which you can use in rule blocks.
In the first example, I'll show you how to dynamically format tiles.

For example, this set of rules applies different formatting to elements with id LINE, SINE, SIMPLE and OTHER. For LINE elements, fill color is set to green, but LINE1 and LINE2 elements have an additional stroke_color condition.

You hear it all of the time on television court shows “Objection! Hearsay!” But what exactly is hearsay? Hearsay is evidence in court that is a statement made out of court being offered for the truth of the matter asserted. The statement rests upon the credibility of the person who made the out-of-court statement.
Hearsay evidence is not admissible because there is no way for the opposing party to cross-examine the person who made the statement out of court. Cross-examination is one of the most important tenants of receiving a fair trial.
The rule barring hearsay includes oral statements, written statements and even nonverbal conduct or communication. An example of non-verbal conduct from an actual Virginia Supreme Court case is the police asking a defendant's wife to bring them the shirt he was wearing when he came home. If the wife brought a shirt in but said nothing, her act is inadmissible because it is like a declaration that the defendant was wearing that particular shirt.

Paul played some music during that night’s Savasana and I’ve been trying to find it ever since. It was acoustic guitar. It sounded almost Native American, but maybe not.

Dominic understands how domestic violence can traumatize children.
As Christmas nears, he wants to help children hurt by violence in the home. He’s holding a blanket drive for children who’ve had to flee their homes.
Through Wednesday, Dominic is asking people to drop off a blanket at the Whittier Middle School on Route 26 in Poland, or at Buy the Fire on Route 26 in Oxford, a store his grandfather owns.
He’s collecting blankets because a few years ago he met a scared little boy at a shelter. The boy and his mother had to leave their home in the middle of the night with only the clothes they were wearing.
It was nearly Christmas. Dominic asked the boy what he would like.
“‘I miss my blankie!'” the boy answered.
Children exposed to domestic violence often grow up and become victims or abusers themselves, because they’ve been conditioned to think violence is normal, research shows. Dominic is breaking that cycle – and then some.

Are you afraid of being abandoned? Are you emotionally overwhelmed?
It may seem like an odd question to ask you to take a quiz to see if you are indeed a fatherless daughter. I get it, but unfortunately fatherlessness is such a silent epidemic in this world that many daughters simply have no idea that the pain of losing the emotional connection of their father yields them in the fatherless daughter category. We are taught by society to just get over it and get on with our lives. This is not the message we should be internalizing. Fatherlessness is a life long journey which grows and changes as you do.
If you answered at least 3 of the quiz questions as “yes” you are a fatherless daughter. The definition of a fatherless daughter is the loss of the emotional father-daughter bond due to, but not limited to: death, divorce, incarceration, abuse, addiction, and/or abandonment.

Salamualaikum. This matter relates to a family who I know very well and I want to help them as much as possible in this matter. It's a family of 6; 1 son (eldest) and 3 daughters. The mum was away to visit her parents for about 8 days. And every night the dad would come home and make sure that the kids are all sleeping fine. He kissed them, said goodnight and then went to his own room to sleep.
The son slept in his own room and the 3 daughters shared a large room between them. So, one of the nights, the dad came home late and the children were sleeping, so as usual, he checked up on the kids before he went to bed. However, he must have come back from a gathering with a group of people, and he may have consumed alcohol before he came home.
So the eldest daughter (21) claims that the father lied down next to her that night when he came home. She claims that the father tried to touch her inappropriately. She was awake and stopped the father instantly. The daughter claims her father tried to go under her top but the daughter instantly stopped it. Then the father left to go to his room to sleep.

My partner, soon to be husband has a step daughter. She is 44 years old with three kids and divorced. We are about to get married and she has not asked us anything about the wedding. She is perfectly amiable and likes me but why is she not asking?
It's possible that she has reservations about marriage if her own has ended in divorce. If it's only a recent split, then she might feel sad talking to other people about their big day if it brings memories of her own wedding day, given what's happened.
She may be happy for you and her father in her own way but she might be protecting herself by not bringing up the subject.
If you feel you have to know why she hasn't spoken to you about the wedding, perhaps you could talk to her about it. Or you could ask her for some help with something just to spark her interest.
Another possibility is that she is busy adjusting to her new single life, looking after the children and figuring things out. Maybe she is so preoccupied with that side of things that she has put the wedding to the back of her mind.
It could be that she is finding it difficult to come to terms with her father marrying someone other than her mother and is trying to deal with it the best she can without upsetting anyone. Or she simply might no longer have an interest in weddings and marriage

Looking to explain how that photo came to be, Mackintosh took to Becky Mack's Blog of Mild Chaos to explain himself.

Etta James’ classic hit “At Last” is still the most popular choice for first dance songs, followed closely by the Elvis hit “Can’t Help Falling in Love with You.” “What a Wonderful World” is not only still a popular first dance song, it’s also a popular Mother/Son dance song. “Butterfly Kisses” and “Unforgettable” are still dominating the Father/Daughter dance.
The only place where there does seem to be some movement is in the “wedding party intro” song. Classic dance songs like “Celebration” and “We Are Family” are being edged out primarily by the Black Eyed Peas various dance anthems. But, even with those songs there isn’t much variation.
If you’re looking for a first dance song that isn’t a cliché, think about what makes music personal to you. Don’t worry as much about meaning and think more about events in your life. My husband and I chose “Sewanee River” for our first song! Why? Well, believe it or not, it was the first song we ever danced to together.

At that time, the old man was famous for being a skilled carpenter; some people even said that he was the most skilled carpenter! His daughter is called Citra. She had a beautiful voice like no other.
Every time she started singing, everyone stopped to listen, even the singing birds on the branches had to stop to enjoy her voice … Not only that, the voice of Citra also had the miraculous healing ability. People across southern Spain often came to ask her to sing whenever there were diseases.
One stormy night, someone knocked on the door of the wooden house! They opened the door. Standing at the threshold was a miserable old woman, drenched in ragged clothes. The old woman was cold, nearly unable to stand.

The next morning, when the old woman was healthier, she told Citra that her grandchild was dying from a weird disease that no healers can cure. “That’s why an elderly woman as me had to travel for months to come here to meet you, dear Citra, just to beg you to save my grandchild.” And the old woman sat for hours telling Citra about her grandchild.

1. Don’t panic. The LON is designed to give you a chance to respond to a grievance that has been filed against you. It does not necessarily mean that the State Bar believes that the grievance is well founded. Nor does it mean that the State Bar believes you have committed a disciplinary violation. The Grievance Committee, similar to a court considering a motion to dismiss, asks the lawyer to respond to any allegation that, if proven, would constitute a violation of the Rules of Professional Conduct.
2. Don’t ignore the LON. Although you should not panic, you should take it seriously and respond within the indicated timeframe or request an extension of time to respond from the assigned deputy counsel in the State Bar’s Office of Counsel. A surprising number of attorneys make the mistake of failing to respond. Failure to respond is itself grounds for imposition of discipline. See N.C. R. Prof’l Cond. Rule 8.1(b). The Grievance Committee typically issues a public reprimand for failure to respond to a LON, even if it turns out there is no merit to the underlying grievance.
3. Seek Counsel. You can seek the assistance of counsel if you believe it would help you in responding to the LON.

Microsoft sued Goldah, Changsha Xunyou Network Technology Co., Hunan Yigiyou Technology Co., and other Chinese defendants, alleging that they were trafficking in stolen Microsoft account credentials. Microsoft obtained a temporary restraining order and then a preliminary injunction. The defendants then moved to dismiss, arguing insufficient service of process. The court had authorized service by email under FRCP 4(f)(3); there was no indication that the defendants’ addresses were unknown.
Somewhat bizarrely, the defendants framed their motion as a motion under FRCP 60. The judge recognized that this was wrong, as no judgment had entered, and it instead treated the motion as a motion for reconsideration of the decision under FRCP 4(f)(3). This seems again to miss the mark: the motion was really one to dismiss under FRCP 12(b)(4). But in any event, the substantive question was clear: had the court erred by allowing service of process by email?
The Hague Convention did not govern Microsoft’s form of service because Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 4(f) does not require conformance with the Hague Convention. … Because Rule 4(f)(3) authorizes service that does not conform with the Hague Convention, service under Rule 4(f)(3) is permissible so long as it “is not prohibited by international agreement. … This Court’s May 19, 2017 order, which authorized service on Defendants “by registered electronic mail to the unique email addresses used by Defendants,” was consistent with Rule 4(f)(3).

What does the Notice-and-Comment and Why Does it Matter?
The Department of Education issues regulations, which are requirements with which all schools that receive federal funding must comply. Like laws, these regulations are legally binding. The Department of Education will soon be soliciting public input on its new proposed regulations through “notice and comment.” The Department is legally required to respond to the input it receives from people like us through notice and comment when it issues its final regulations next year. If the Department has not sufficiently responded to our comments, if the Department cannot properly explain its reasoning, or if the regulations themselves violate Title IX, a court can strike down the Department’s regulations.
That makes our voices powerful.
Because courts can strike down regulations that don’t adequately respond to our comments, writing a detailed comment is an important way for all of us — students, parents, teachers, advocates, concerned citizens — to influence the Department of Education.

What is interesting about the cases is that this Rule has been in place for a number years and that there appears to be no remedy for continuing violations. Because the cases are criminal, violations don't matter unless prejudicial, i.e., some reason to think that the papers were altered or forged while in police possession. I understand that it would be a bit much to dismiss the criminal charges. I am alright with that. But, like prosecutorial misconduct, the Court saying something is a violation and then doing nothing about it makes it hard to take the Rule seriously.

Held: The claimant's brief will be treated on the basis of its substance, therefore it is deemed a motion for summary judgment. Since it does not comply with the Court rule governing such motion, and since claimant has submitted no admissible evidence to support the facts he outlines in his brief, the motion is denied.
Pro Se. A party appearing and representing himself or herself must comply with Court rules.
Summary Judgment: Motion for Summary Judgment. A motion for summary judgment which does not cite to admissible evidence and which is not supported by admissible evidence must be denied summarily.

Retrieved Text: I have compared books to their movie versions a few times on this blog, and of course that topic comes up pretty often in conversation. The universal conclusion that I hear from everyone is “the book is [almost] always better than the movie”. Although I agree with their sentiment, I don’t actually think that it’s true. Here’s my explanation.
It is true that when a movie adapts a book, it’s almost always a disappointment compared to the original. But it’s also pretty common for people to write novelizations of movies. No one ever says “Yeah, Back to the Future was a good movie. But the book was so much better!” I remember, as a kid, finding a book version of Ghostbusters years before seeing the movie, but even though I read it first there was never any doubt that the movie was better. These days, movies often have comic adaptations instead of prose novels, but no one is talking about how the graphic novel of Django Unchained is the real masterpiece.
Your first reaction is probably to dismiss those examples by saying that those books don’t count. We don’t take novelizations of movies seriously. But that’s my point. We don’t take them seriously because the movie came first. Instead of saying “the book is always better”, we should be saying “the original is always better”.
Every medium has its own strengths and weaknesses, and almost no good works are going to translate easily into another medium. When someone tries, they’re likely to be hobbled by the need to “feel

The case of the day is Sbarro, Inc. v. Tukdan Holdings, Ltd. (N.Y. Sup. Ct. 2011). The underlying facts are not clear from the decision. Sbarro sued Tukdan Holdings, an Israeli firm, and Werner, who lived in Israel. Sbarro effected service in two ways: by registered mail, and by personal service in Israel according to Israeli law. Tukdan and Werner moved to dismiss for insufficient service of process. The court denied the motion. On the question of service by mail, it followed the majority view, which is that Article 10(a)’s reference to “sending” documents by postal channels is a reference to service of process. Because Israel had not made a reservation under Article 10(a), and because (presumably, though the court does not spell it out) service by mail was permissible under New York law, the service by mail was proper.
It has been suggested that the word ‘permits’ in article 19 should be read to mean ‘does not prohibit.’ This would be a poor standard, however. State service of process statutes, for example, which omit mail service provisions certainly do not ‘permit’ such service. But under the proposed test such a statute could possibly be interpreted as ‘not prohibiting’ mail service because of a lack of any specific provision denying its use. In light of the original purpose of article 19, courts should narrowly construe it and only allow the use of alternative service methods which foreign law specifically authorizes. Courts should not risk infringing upon the sovereignty

The SEC has approved rule changes that will increase the number of cases to be heard by a single arbitrator and severely limit the number of pre-hearing motions to dismiss filed.
New Rule 12401/13401 raises the amount in controversy to be heard by a single arbitrator from $25,000 to $100,000.1 Under the current rules, a single arbitrator is appointed to hear claims of $25,000 or less. A single arbitrator is also allowed to hear claims of up to $50,000 unless one of the parties request that the claim be heard by a three-arbitrator panel in its initial pleading. The new rules mandate that a single arbitrator be appointed to hear claims of $100,000 or less. These claims may be heard by a three-arbitrator panel only if both parties agree to the arrangement in writing. As a practical matter, this means that customer claims of $100,000 will be heard by a single public, chair-qualified arbitrator.
Other recently approved amendments to the Code, which go into effect February 23, 2009, significantly reduce the tools in a respondent’s defense arsenal.2 Simply stated, these amendments severely limit the available grounds for making pre-hearing dispositive motions to dismiss and impose significant penalties on any unsuccessful moving party.

Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 8(a) specifically states that “[r]elief in the alternative or of several different types may be demanded.” The practical effect of this rule is that plaintiffs are not required, when litigation begins, to choose the particular basket into which they will put all their argument eggs. Plaintiffs can plead, for example, that the defendant breached the contract between the parties. In the alternative, the facts could very well develop in a way to show that while a contract did not exist between the parties, facts to support a claim for negligent misrepresentation are present. So as a completely separate basis for recovery, Rule 8(a) allows plaintiffs to plead recovery under negligent misrepresentation. Or, as a third alternative, that the facts may end up supporting neither of these legal theories but may provide a right to recover for the defendant’s failure to comply with a statutory requirement regarding disclosure of material information relating to a benefit claim. What is very clear under FRCP 8(a) is that plaintiffs are not required to choose which of these theories to rely on to the exclusion of other possible theories before carrying out any investigation in the litigation .

Ending a conversation effectively isn’t rocket science. However, there are some things to keep in mind that will help you navigate what can sometimes be a bit of a sticky situation.

Mastering the art of the full stop raises the skill level of writing and its authority, and it’s the singular skill we should have fully down if we seek to create compelling work.
As language is ever evolving, so does our use of punctuation and the way we view its transient purpose. A full-stop at the end of a sentence in the middle of a text conversation now indicates possible hostility from the writer, whereas before its only intention was to show the end of a thought. Rather, a singular space or send of a message indicates the release of a sentence and the beginning of a new one, or the inclusion of an emoji at the end as its concluding particle.
The full stop offers the reader relief, allowing them to close the circle of meaning and take a mental breath. Full stops also give writing its rhythm. They come in different places, cutting off short and long groups of words, varying the cadences – those drops in pitch at the sentence’s end which signal that the sentence, and the sentiment, are done.
Variation is what creates a story rather than a conversation, and what creates the possibility of craft. More than just knowing how to string fancy words together to create pretty-sounding sentences, a writer must know when and how to stop. That way, the most important bits

It was sort of a mellow and intellectual conversation about what Affirmative Action is meant to do, an analysis as to whether it does accomplish that goal and whether we are better off without it. The conversation was mostly based in the larger context of the American education system, how it fails to give the same opportunities to every child and parent and how Affirmative action seems to be a poor fix so late in the game. We had a couple of people share their personal stories which I thought was really nice. Some were about immigrating here very young and struggling to succeed and get the resources to make it through the system, one was about the stigma that comes with Affirmative action and how it can cause the racial tensions it is meant to assuage.

For a 44-year-old California woman who was hit by a car last year, engine trouble was not just an annoying inconvenience -- it was deadly.
The woman was presumably having issues with her car and pulled to the side of the road and parked. She was standing outside her vehicle when she was struck by an oncoming car. The car then continued down the road without stopping to check on the woman's condition or determine if she needed assistance, according to police reports.
The woman was taken by air ambulance to a California hospital. Unfortunately, her injuries were too severe to respond successfully to treatment. The woman died while in the hospital.
Police later located the man thought responsible for the fatal collision. He was charged with causing and then leaving the accident, to which he pleaded no contest. He received a sentence of almost one year in jail, followed by three years probation.
Although a resolution of the man's criminal charges has now been reached in a California courtroom, his legal battles concerning the woman he hit by a car may not yet be over.

BREMERTON — Emergency personnel avoided serious injury Thursday night when a 25-year-old man's vehicle plowed into a police car as medics were responding to an aid call on 11th Street.
The man, who was employed by the U.S. Navy and stationed at Naval Base Kitsap-Bangor, was suspected of driving under the influence and was turned over to military authorities, according to a State Patrol spokeswoman.
The incident began at about 8:30 p.m. when a Bremerton Police officer pulled over a vehicle on 11th Street near Roosevelt Avenue and discovered the elderly female driver was experiencing a medical issue, according to a police news release. The officer activated the lights on his patrol car and positioned his vehicle to shield the woman's car from traffic.
Crews from Bremerton Fire & Rescue and Olympic Ambulance responded to the scene. While medics were preparing to use a gurney to remove the woman from her vehicle, an officer observed a Honda accelerate onto 11th Street from Naval Avenue. The officer called out a warning to emergency personnel, anticipating a crash.
As firefighters dove out of the way, the Honda slammed into the patrol car and pushed it for 15 feet, pinning the gurney between the patrol car and the woman's vehicle. An Olympic Ambulance attendant was struck by the gurney and narrowly avoided being pinned between the gurney and the woman's vehicle.
The driver of the Honda was escorted from his vehicle. State Patrol found the man to have a blood-alcohol content of nearly three times the legal limit,

Police believe the man, 47-year-old Bill Veikoso, became lodged under the truck when he was struck somewhere on Borges Lane near Agnes Court in north Vallejo. The woman drove about three-quarters of a mile before she stopped at her home, Nichelini said.
"When she went to investigate when she got home, she realized there was an older gentleman under her car who had died," Nichelini said.

A 23-year-old North Carolina man accused of killing three people in a car crash is now on trial. The fatal accident occurred in 2009, when the suspect collided with another vehicle as he traveled down a state highway. Two individuals in the second vehicle, a 45-year-old mother and her 2-year-old daughter, died in the crash. Also killed was a 13-year-old passenger in the suspect's car.
Police claim the suspect and a 47-year-old acquaintance were racing at the time of the accident, with witnesses saying they saw both vehicles traveling between 70 mph and 100 mph. Investigators reportedly determined that the suspect's car was moving at 83 mpg when it struck the other vehicle.
Following the accident, both suspects were charged with three charges of second-degree murder. If convicted, the suspects would face eight to more than 30 years of jail time for each charge. Prosecutors discussed possible plea bargains for both suspects, but never made a formal offer. The man's bail was set at $45,000, while his acquaintance's was initially set at $3 million. While she was not directly involved in the crash, she reportedly has 15 speeding convictions on her record. Her bail was later decreased to $900,000.

Blame it on the so-called 'pink tax,' where products aimed at women cost more than similar ones designed for men.
The so-called "Pink Tax" is neither pink nor a tax. Rather, it's alleged gender-based price discrimination that critics say consumers face when buying items aimed at girls or women vs. almost identical goods that are gender-neutral or designed for males.
What's the big deal about paying a few extra pennies for a shirt or a razor? Experts say the problem is that over a lifetime, the pink tax can cost female shoppers thousands of dollars.
The pink tax often also extends to charging female buyers more for cars, haircuts and dry cleaning. In fact, just about the only exception is car insurance, where women typically pay less than men due to statistically lower accident rates.
Clothing for girls cost 4% more than similar items for boys.
Rep. Jackie Speier, (D-Calif.) introduced a bill in 2016 designed to end the pink tax and gender discrimination in pricing nationwide, but it failed to pass. She plans to reintroduce it in the future. And among individual states or localities, California banned gender-based price discrimination for services in 1995, followed by similar legislation Massachusetts, Washington, D.C., and some Virginia counties.

The woman's body was discovered at about 7:30 one morning, though, it is believed the crash that killed her happened about 90 minutes earlier. Tips from the public led to the man's arrest.
Police said the woman probably was looking in trash cans for recyclables, which she redeemed for money to help pay for her daughter's costs to attend Los Angeles City College. The man, police said, might not have known he hit the woman. A review of security video recorded nearby showed that the man got out of his car, looked for damage, then left the scene. Her body was underneath the trash bins and the debris that had been displaced.
Police said rainy weather could have caused the crash.
The woman is survived by her husband of 38 years, as well as three children and a grandson.
"She loved her grandson," her son told NBC4. "He's 5 … and unfortunately he's asking for her right now."
The woman's contributions to her family undoubtedly were far greater than the money she collected from recyclables, and her family deserves, at a minimum, compensation for her funeral expenses.

”She was dancing around naked in the flat,” a source close to the investigation revealed to daily Aftonbladet.
The 67-year-old man had been reported missing in September this year and early on in the investigation police had contacted the woman who denied knowing the man's whereabouts.
The man and the woman knew each other and were known to spend time together.
Upon contacting the woman for a second round of questioning recently, however, police came across a macabre find in the woman's living room.
Police found the man tucked up on the woman's sofa. Forensic analysis subsequently revealed that he had likely been dead for several months and his body was in an advanced stage of putrefaction.
Despite there being no indications at this point that the woman was responsible for the man's death, she was arrested on account of being in the flat with the corpse.
An autopsy to determine the cause of death was performed on Tuesday and after the preliminary results came in from the National Board of Forensic Medicine (Rättsmedicinalverket, RMV), the woman was released.
”This is probably not a murder. The woman is sick and it is just very tragic,” said Lars Lundin of the South Stockholm police to Aftonbladet prior to the release.

It works by removing eggs from a woman's body. The eggs are then mixed with sperm to make embryos. The embryos are then put back in the woman's body. In vitro fertilization (IVF) is the most common and effective type of ART.
ART procedures sometimes use donor eggs, donor sperm, or previously frozen embryos. It may also involve a surrogate or gestational carrier. A surrogate is a woman who becomes pregnant with sperm from the male partner of the couple. A gestational carrier becomes pregnant with an egg from the female partner and the sperm from the male partner.
The most common complication of ART is a multiple pregnancy. It can be prevented or minimized by limiting the number of embryos that are put into the woman's body.

The thing is, what exactly are we talking about? What is engagement.
However, looking up engage is a far more satisfying experience.
From this we can get an idea of what people are talking about when they say they are using gamification to engage people, or increase engagement. They are generally looking to get people to participate in activities. That tends to be the key goal for most gamification, participation.
So here is the thing. When people play a game, they play because they want to play. They participate because it is their desire to participate and be involved. When people use a gamified system, it is very often not their desire that drives entry, but the desire of whoever set the system up. This is a really important distinction.

Get a conversation going with a shy guy. One of the most annoying and frustrating thing is to end up liking someone who hesitate to converse with you even when they know you like them.

Case in point: I get my nails done at a salon that has only Asian women working there. They all speak English, this I know because they speak to me in English. So I know they can all speak it. But when they speak to each other, it is in their language, and sometimes they laugh and just keep talking and talking, and I can’t help but think “maybe they are talking about me?” Maybe I am just being a little self-conscious, but it’s rude!
It reminds me of that Seinfeld episode where Elaine gets her nails done and swears the ladies there are talking about her, so she gets George’s father, who understands their language, to come on an appointment with her. Turns out, they ARE talking about her and having a good time doing it!
Maybe I’m just a little paranoid…. but when I see them look at me from the corner of their eyes, and then a few remarks go flying in their language, along with a few smiles or chuckles… well, what’s one to think?? We all know women can be so caddy! YES, we can!!

There are the boilerplate words like “they,” “them” and “those people.” But there are also more localized varieties like "Hoosier," “north county” and even historical oddities such as “scrubby Dutch.” In St. Louis, coded conversations about race and class often start with a single question that permeates a divided region: "Where did you go to school?"
This episode of We Live Here is all about talking about race without actually talking about race.
Now that we've looked at the jigsaw puzzle of St. Louis County, we consider the children. In a place where people from different backgrounds — and especially different races — seldom live next to each other, we ask the question: What does that mean for kids?

Move around the room while you speak. Don’t stand at the board and lecture. If students know exactly where you stand at all times they can hide from you and whisper without being seen. Walk in between the rows of desks. Check for understanding constantly by asking random students questions about what you are covering. If students know that at any point they could be called on to answer a question they are more likely to pay attention. If a group of students is talking during your instruction move over to that side of the room. Be sure to ask one of those students a question on what you just said. If the talking/disrespecting is really bad you will need to stop the lecture entirely, but in most cases it can be stopped by following these steps.
Some teachers are more tolerant of talking during class. A student of yours could be used to classes where quiet private off task conversations are allowed or ignored. Let the class know that when you are instructing you do not want any private conversations. Tell the students that if they have a question they can raise their hand. If not, there is no reason to be talking. Being clear about your rules and stating

We suggest that people start with our R&R classes. They are a perfect combination of very slow movement, and stillness. Feel free to stay with R&R classes forever (some of our most experienced yogis take these classes on a regular basis) or once you are more comfortable, talk to your teacher about what you are looking for in your practice. If it’s more movement, they may suggest a Vinyasa or Power class. Looking for more stillness or restoration? They might encourage you to try a Yin or Restorative class.

By traveling to some new places, you will easily learn to make new friends out of the stranger and thereby you can get more comfortable talking to strange people then.
Better at conversation: As mentioned earlier, the traveling not online makes you comfortable talking to the strangers, else this also makes you better at it also. And after talking to the people all the time, the repetitive question will become quite boring. You can start to even bore yourself. After that, you do not care about where the people are from, and where they are really going, how long they have been looking to travel, and many more common questions.
More confident: This is the most important element on traveling to new places. instead of talking to strange people and having better conversation to all people, travel will also helps you to boost your confidence level. this is made possible because, if you have visited one place in certain area. one can come to one conclusion about the place and if the time happens to come to same place, you can confidently move in that place without others help.

Remember, you’re always talking to one little buckaroo.
When Fred Rogers of “Mr. Rogers” fame was starting out, he asked children’s TV cowboy show personality Gabby Hayes how he managed to create a personal connection with children even when he was speaking to millions of them at the same time. He responded by saying that he always remembered that he was really just talking to one little buckaroo.
Think about this. Too often, when people speak in public, they say things like “I’m sure all of you are wondering…” But there is no all of me, there is only me.
So we have to start by understanding that while our message may have to appeal to millions of people, it does so one person at a time. Which means your message needs to be very direct and tailored to a specific audience mindset.
Part of achieving this kind of directness is stylistic. In a speech, or TV appearance, looking directly at the person you’re addressing (like Mr. Rogers did) goes a long way towards building trust and establishing a personal connection. It’s not a coincidence that the idea of “being evasive” is used to describe someone who’s hiding the truth—they’re literally looking away, or using complicated phrases that evade understanding.
Another way to talk with just one buckaroo is to speak and write to them based on a deep understanding of where they are. Usually the “where they are” aspect is about someone’s belief system,which

Your child may think waiting for his turn to talk lasts an eternity (even if it's only three minutes). And his impatience may cause him to insert himself into the conversation.
While you can't expect your preschooler to sit quietly through an hour long tale, teaching kids not to interrupt is an important social skill. Children who understand how to politely enter into a conversation—instead of talking over people—will likely be more successful in developing and maintaining relationships.
Kids often interrupt adult conversations because they’re bored. If you’re talking to someone else about adult topics and your child isn’t involved in the conversation, he may frequently interrupt as an attempt to amuse himself and gain attention.
Sometimes kids struggle to wait their turn to talk because they’re impulsive. They may tend to just blurt things out without even noticing that other people are talking. As a result, they may tend to talk over people rather than wait their turn until they learn better impulse control.
There are also kids who just don’t recognize social graces. They may be completely oblivious to the fact that asking you a question while you’re talking to someone else is rude. They may require some education and coaching to help them learn to avoid interrupting when others are talking.

Buses in Cornwall and SD&G are cancelled today as the region is expected to get another blast of winter; Environment Canada’s calling for 30 to 40 centimetres of snow to touch down in the region by tomorrow.
They’ve got a Winter Storm Warning out for the region as it stands right now. They say snow, which could be heavy a times, will likely start this afternoon and linger on until tomorrow afternoon. Because of the wind, you could see some blowing snow which could make it very hard to see at times.
This is expected to have a major impact on travel, so you’re being asked to postpone any trips you don’t need to take. If you do have to hit the road, Environment Canada is encouraging you to have an emergency kit and cell phone with you, and to let people know where you’re going.

Kevin Wilkin was disappointed to see today&apos;s FA Trophy replay postponed for a second time.
Wrexham were due to travel to Gateshead today for their third round replay, with the initial idea if the game was to be postponed would be to try again 24 hours later on the Wednesday.
However, with the conditions and the forecast taken into account, the match has now been rescheduled for Saturday at the International Stadium.
Before the postponement Wrexham could have been facing one of four teams this Saturday.
Should the trophy tie have taken place and Wrexham progressed they would have faced the winners of either Dartford or Halifax on Saturday – on the condition their replay survived the weather. If the game had been pushed back to Saturday, or if Wrexham were knocked out by Gateshead, then Wilkin’s men would have travelled to take on Nuneaton in a scheduled Vanarama Conference clash.
Hardly ideal preparation for a club, and Wilkin was glad to see the fixture list confirmed, even if it is likely to throw up more headaches over the coming few weeks.
“With the game being off tomorrow it is not ideal,” said Wilkin. “Everyone is having to hover around and with calling it off so late we have to drag everyone in training this afternoon.

The Reds seek out their first win of the season, after losing to both Port Vale and Cheltenham.
Connolly believes the team is getting there but they need to be more consistent.
"We need to be consistent, we can't start a game slowly and can't be 1-0 or 2-0 down in the first half and then fighting to come back in the second half, which we have done.

Here are some of the forecasters thoughts on this significant event.
Northern 2/3rd's Of New Mexico.
As the arctic cold front races southward down the eastern plains tomorrow, it will dam up against the central mountain chain of the state. It looks like this is going to be one of those rare occasions to where not only are these areas facing a potentially damaging gap high wind event, (strong northeasterly-easterly winds pushes westward through the mountain passes) but also a over-topping high wind event as well.
The depth of the arctic air should be deep enough by around sunset tomorrow evening to over-top the Sandia and Manznao mountains, and spill down the western slopes into the northeastern heights of Albuquerque and nearby areas. These winds have the potential to reach speeds of 70 mph, and could very well produce some damage. As these powerful wind gusts spill over the tops of the mountains, they will blow snow off of the mountain tops and into the northeast heights of Albuquerque.
A High Wind Warning is now in effect for the Central Mountain Chain,

Then this evening I was messing around with watercolour pencils. The first thing is abstract, sort of inspired by the stained glass I saw in a funeral parlour in a Netflix sitcom we’re currently watching, called The Kominsky Method, starring Alan Arkin and Michael Douglas. Phew.
For years (yes, YEARS), I’ve been thinking about creating a something involving a spoon carved from wood, some coloured stones and the representation in some way of a liquid in which the stones sit and which seems to spill from the bowl of the spoon. In my mind, the spoon has been a ladle. To do this would require a piece of wood with a very distinctive shape. So, now, I’m thinking of a much simpler spoon, flatter and easier to do. Here’s a very rough representation of my current plan.

First of all, my grandfather is doing well; they removed his gall bladder yesterday and he'll be fine once he's recovered. He should be out of the hospital this weekend. My mom went and spent yesterday and last night with them and she's coming back this afternoon.

I’m sure that you can see and hear them very clearly in your mind’s eye. You can probably see them on stage delivering a talk and feel their presence and connection.
Being a good speaker is something that many can do, being a great speaker requires some more skill but being an inspirational speaker is something that many aspire and few achieve.
Just because people are great coaches and mentors they aren’t necessarily inspirational speakers, it’s a completely different pace to coaching. There will of course be times when its appropriate for a speaker to drop their voice or pause for effect but questions should be left to the end not just questions from the audience but asking questions of the audience as people will disengage to think about the response and either miss a bit of the talk or take time to re-engage and connect.
Inspirational speakers dare to shine, they show up and they play big, and that’s because you can’t give if you are playing small. Playing small is denying your audience access to knowledge and information that you have and they deserve to know and understand.

Then I realized the issue!! They were talking about the “aggressive” or what I call “adventure” surround mixes made popular by Elliot Scheiner, Steve Wilson and others. These are prevalent in highly produced pop and rock music where the multitracks are separated and any track is liable to show up in the surrounds; very strong full-range discrete guitar, drums, piano, vocals, or any other part of the mix is a candidate. This makes huge demands on the surround speakers, and has made ineligible the small to medium sized surrounds (satellites, often of a different manufacturer) used in home theater, where demands are more ambient and less full-range, like foley effects (bullets and spaceships whizzing overhead).
Guess what? This hefty requirement, usually voted down by things like space, budget and spousal acceptance, is NOT at all a requirement to begin enjoying all the incredible benefits of the “other” type of surround mixing, that is the natural “acoustic” or “ambient” mixes that are present in classical, world and jazz multichannel music presented at NativeDSD.com.

PA design takes some skills you are talking about a permanent club install. I would recommend asking around on www.diyaudio.com. You also need to tell us a whole lot more about the types of acts that will be in your club. Are you going to just play dance music? Will you need to be able to patch in bands mixers?

your best bet is to hit the local shop and test out different sound systems in the store, from various distances it would also help if we knew what type of acts are going to be gigging and if its a permanent setup or not.
Personally I'd rather use lots of smaller speakers than a handful of large ones; the reason being, you can get much more even coverage at a higher level of quality, and the "it's too loud over there" problem tends not to rear its head. It depends on the size of the space though, obviously the larger the main room is, the more you're going to be relying on bounced sound waves

Yes, the word 'the.' You heard it many times in the audio from the movie.
English speakers use this word for several reasons – some of which we will discuss in this program.
Today, we will show you how Americans use 'the' in everyday speech, writing, and even in the arts, such as literature or movies.
But first, we need to give you a few definitions.
Articles are words that go before nouns. They tell if the noun is general or specific.
When an article is specific, it is called a definite article. The word 'the' is a definite article.
English speakers use 'the' when both the speaker and the listener know what is being referred to. They can have this shared understanding for any number of reasons.
Sometimes the noun is already known, for example. Sometimes the speakers are referring to nouns that are unique. At other times, the situation makes it clear what the noun refers to.
One of the main reasons Americans use the word 'the' when they are speaking is because the noun being referred to is clearly understood. The noun could be something seen or heard in an area

Many guys put on a simple selfie in a T-shirt.
If you have to take pictures yourself, it means that you are strange and you do not have any friends. A woman may even be afraid that you will do something to her.
An attractive guy does not take photos of himself (or rather does not upload them to the internet) only friends make him on a common exit, party, etc.
You have to be really packed and handsome guy to look masculine in a T-shirt. It’s not like that in most guys. The guys in the T-shirt look childish. A woman does not want a boy but a man. I want to feel feminine with him and brag to him in front of my friends. 20 years old in T-shirt definitely does not meet her assumptions.

According to the reading, this woman had the attire of a harlot, which was gaudy and flaunting to set off her beauty so that she might trap the unwary, void of understanding (Prov. 7:7). Perhaps she was painted like Jezebel or she may even have gone with her shoulders and bosom bare—showing “just the right amount of cleavage” for appeal. She does not seem to be a common harlot; because she was, according to her own testimony, a married woman, and kept house (Pro. 7:19). Whether her claims were true or false, they were calculated to prevent any suspicion that her lovers were cohabiting with a common harlot. Either way we see she was subtle of heart. In stark contrast, purity of heart will show itself in modesty which becomes women professing godliness; however, this woman had no semblance of purity (1 Tim. 2:10).
Common harlots were seen sitting in some open place with a covering over the faces, or having a veil of a peculiar kind on the face and head—probably to conceal their identities. The veil appears to be accepted evidence of such women (Gen. 38:14-19). No doubt, in Solomon’s time, they had other distinctions. In all other countries, and in all times, the apparel they wore testified against them. Like the Sodomites, they declared their sin and did not hide it.

Silent Witness [Season 20] | I'm was so happy this was back! I first discovered this series a few years ago and binge watched it from season one right up to the current season which was on TV as I thought it was amazing.
The Level [Season 1] | This was on just before Christmas and immediately feel in love with the programme. It ended on a big cliffhanger too so I really cannot wait for the next season.
The Missing [Season 2] | I haven't actually seen season one, but I watched season two before Christmas when it was on BBC 1 and I loved it. The twists and turns really had me questioning everything and I really loved the show.
Ghost Adventures [Season 13] | If you follow me on twitter then you know how much I adore this programme. I have done for years and it's something I really look forward to each week when it is on. Sadly,

I've lost the number of times people say this to me, especially when they haven't seen me for a few weeks. Do people have a mental image of me being fat? How do they describe me? 'you know the chubby one that needs to lose weight?
A woman at school said to me today I'd lost so much weight that it really suited me. I told her straight, I haven't lost any weight, But she was adamant that I had, that I had been so much bigger last time she saw me. She was right, I was wrong....No other explanation.
I'm 5ft 7in and weigh 11 stone, yep quite heavy and you'd think I'd need to lose weight, but not really.
I do prefer to wear baggy clothes, loose fitting, especially in this heat, but that doesn't mean I'm covering up my fat.
I wear a size 10-12 on the lower half and a 14-16 on the top half.
So I decided to take some pictures of my fatness so I can take comparative shots next time I'm told I've lost weight.
Front and side images clothed, as appears naturally and as appears when I readjust the waist band on my jeans...i.e.pull them up.
I bought these jeans from Fat Face in November 2010 in a size 10.
I'm glad someone else has a bigger top half than bottom half and it's not just me!
I shall look out for updated pictures and give you my opinion as to weight loss.

Ideally he would like to plug the HDD into his computer (easy access to power points etc) and then initiate a backup sequentially from the other 3 computers. To allow this to happen the USB HDD must be shared. So far no problem, it works.
However, when he turns off his computer and then turns it on again the sharing permissions are lost for the USB HDD. Apart from his computer, the other 3 can't find the path, because the USB HDD isn't shared anymore.
My question is "Is there any way that a removable USB device can be permanently shared?"
does it keep the share?
Look to see if IPC$ is running, if not shares will not stay.
Also, is this an admin share? If so, the systems that I have looked at after SP2 have ADMIN$ disabled. It has this exact effect.

SARASOTA, FL, November 14, 2018 /24-7PressRelease/ — When it comes to choosing a hunting guide you typically base your decision off of the knowledge and skill they can provide to help you make your claim. Simply put, Tom Walker rises above the norm and puts on a show that you will remember the rest of your life. Tom’s freakish knowledge and physical ability in the woods leaves him in a position of consistently redefining the hunting experience.
Between backwoods performance, and mainstream television on A&E’s hit show American Hoggers – Tom Walker has proven time and again that it doesn’t matter who he’s with, or what he’s hunting – he simply gets it done with style and excitement. This holds true so much to the point that he was named one of the toughest guides on the planet according to Field & Stream along with additional mentions from Realtree, and the NRA. Of course we can’t forget his tips for bowhunting 1000-pound alligators. The question is how, and why?
It all starts in the small town of Mulliken, Michigan where Tom grew up. With a rich outdoors environment Tom was drawn to the sport of hunting from a young age, and it acted as his outlet for mental stability in a town where there wasn’t much to do for a young boy. Over the years his passion grew as did his skill-set and

During the 2014 MIT Sloan Sports Analytics Conference in Boston, Jonathan Kraft - President of the New England Patriots - was discussing where Tom Brady (the famed quarterback who was drafted 199th overall) would be drafted today. Although he is a top-tier QB, Kraft suggested that Brady, even today, would not be a high-draft pick. Technological advancements in scouting aside, Tom Brady has something that is not easily analyzed, but is critical to leadership and performance - 'the intangibles'.
Kraft did not share what the intangibles were. But we can assume they are connected to both leadership and performance practices. Brady has a vision. He is driven to realize that vision on the playing field, in the locker-room, and when out of the stadium. He knows ultimately what he is working for and is dedicated - compelled - to live out that vision. He does so by building synergistic relationships with his coaches and teammates. While watching the Patriots under Brady's command, you can tell they are in flow. He is confident in his abilities, while knowing he can strategically improve. And he is masterful at balancing reflection with action. Brady purposefully pauses and intentionally acts. When off the field, he is able to find a quiet space (often internal) to recollect, reassess, and reengage. And then is able to deliver, through methodical, on-field play.
What other 'intangibles' does Brady - or other greats from any sport - have that we can learn from?

Seducing a girl using NLP is an art on her own. Although if you have a deep knowledge of NLP , seduction is a simple process. It has been suggested that the use of NLP for seduction is not ethical, and that we should not use "mind control" to attract a woman but this is a lie.
The reality is that everyone who tries to seduce someone is using some form of mind control, whether they know it or not. When you buy flowers and use cologne you are manipulating the other person, even when you have dinner with someone you have much deeper psychological connections and are ways of mind control.
Why buy flowers is mind control?
It is not just the fact that women associate "the gift of flowers" with the arrival of man. She also associates the pleasant smell of flowers with man. Unlike most senses, smell goes directly to our limbic system that stores memory and is responsible for emotions.
The man is essentially saying "Here is a flower, BANG, now when you remember me, you will remember a pleasant smell and excitement upon receiving them." Even if the woman does not consciously associate this, her subconscious is 100% aware of that association.
For that reason, the first impression is so important, because if a woman has associated an idea of you in her mind, it is very difficult to reverse it. That’s why it's important to clarify that NLP can help you, but you can not

And let's also say that a particular man expresses a desire to work on starting a relationship with a particular woman. He tells us that this is what he's after. He's going to ask her out on a date. It's his own application of the abstract productive work to his individual, concrete life. Now we might consider how such a purpose relates to his motivation. Why did he pick this goal, and why does he work toward achieving it? As Rand suggested, is it because of his "basic premises and values"? If so, this man could have any number of different reasons for pursuing a relationship with the woman. Which is why we would need to understand his premises and values before we could really understand why he chose that purpose in the first place. Now, let's suppose we are that man. (Women, feel free to reverse the sexes in the example.) Why are we acting toward achieving this particular purpose? Let's say we think the woman is smart and attractive, a fairly standard reason for asking someone out. But why are we pursuing a smart and

As a champion for the equal rights of women in all aspects of life – from work, to social circumstances, to dating – I think it’s only fair to say that the roles of women in the dating world have changed, and should have changed since the days of courtship that I’ve only seen in movies that took place in the 1950s.
So, how have dating roles changed for women?
Women can (gasp) ask men on dates.
We don’t have to just stand back and wait for a guy to come to us with a dozen roses to invite us to dinner. No…we can be bold. If we are interested in a man, it’s more socially acceptable for us to say it. We don’t have to make the first move, but there’s no unwritten rule saying not to. It’s all about the circumstance — and about what a woman is comfortable with.
Women have different lives and goals than the previous generation’s women.
Today, it’s the norm for a woman to go to work – and it’s not as unusual as it once was for a woman to not want children. We want to focus on our careers. We’re getting married later in life. We’re priding ourselves on our collective education. Dating, with the chance of

Or live in the south. Southerners seem to have cornered the market on hospitality. But, for the rest of us, who live anywhere north of Texas or are not blessed with a warm, friendly disposition, perhaps these basic tips will help us be hospitable.
1. Remember, it begins at the door. Make people feel welcome when they arrive. And since you want to be sincere about it, I would recommend not letting people in your house that you aren’t truly glad to have. Or learn to fake it. In a genuine way.
2. Be confident. Trust that you can throw a party that others will enjoy. Come up with a good plan and then make it happen. Along the way, don’t sweat the details. If the vegetables sit in the steamer too long and are overcooked, which happened to us recently, smile, apologize and move on. Mushy vegetables hardly qualify as a crisis. And if someone is sitting at your table that is upset by the vegetables, make a note not to invite them back.

Let’s try to understand this tendency from the point of view of a Russian woman.

Why Are Younger Men Older Women Relationships Too Popular Today?
The very first answer that usually pops into anyone’s mind is that to do with the financial benefits that the younger men receive from these older women.
Younger men seeking older women are far from innocent or nave and clearly understand that such relationships can lead to their financial gain. This is due to the fact that older women are usually already financially stable and tend to ‘mother’ the younger men by taking care of most of their financial needs. In addition, it has been noted that younger men seek older women because they will escape most of the financial responsibilities that they will have to bear when dating a younger, less financially stable woman. For example, on older woman will settle the bill after a fancy dinner while the younger woman will expect the man, much as tradition and culture, to settle it.
Another reason that has been suggested is the fact that advancements in cosmetic technology has ensures that beauty and health facilities effectively help women keep in excellent physical condition. Older women keep fit by attending the gym regularly and usually use cosmetic surgery to ensure that their beauty does not fade away with age and effectively maintain their youthful appearance.

Our bodies are physically designed to invite, but we are also designed to invite relationally.
The Physical Invitation: God was very intentional as He created man and woman that their bodies would fit together perfectly, in perfect union, coming together into something beautiful and soul-bonding. Our world has done much to skew our vision of this beautiful bond and make it something less than it is. Our world has also done much to discourage women from inviting her man to be with her. Shame from experiences past including abuse and promiscuity. Comparison to images real and imagined that fill a man's mind. Inadequacy felt from discouraging words shared during intimate moments. Inadequacy felt from never learning what it means to truly invite.
Do any of these describe you? They have all described me at some moment in time. What I am learning is that Shame, Comparison and Inadequacy are nothing compared to the richness of an invitation that is met with Love, Tenderness and yes, a bit of Excitement.
The Relational Invitation: As scary as it is to invite our man physically, I imagine most women have as much (or more) fear bound up in inviting a man into their souls. Inviting him into our soul requires a softness and tenderness that relinquishes control of the grip we have on the door to our heart. Admittedly, there are times I can relax, let go and

The 45-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of felonious assault, according to police reports. Formal charges have not been filed in the case.
The incident happened about 3 a.m. Thursday at an apartment building on Lorain Avenue near West 94th Street.
The man told police he, his 62-year-old girlfriend and a third person sat down to eat a dinner of lasagna and garlic bread and things "got out of hand," according to police reports.
Both were drinking, and the woman was being loud and wouldn't stop talking, the man told police. He told police he asked the woman "over and over" to go to bed or to quiet down, according to police reports.
The man told police the woman threw several objects at him. He told police he threw a pack of cigarettes at her, then grabbed the next object he could find to throw, police reports say. He told police he didn't realize it was a knife until after he threw it, police said.
The woman's dress turned red with blood, he said, according to police reports.
He looked at the woman's wound and saw that the knife had sliced her stomach to the point that her intestines were sticking out, the police reports say.

They think that these western men should give them these gifts as a way of expressing their love. When they do not get the gifts, they take it as a sign that the man does not love them as much as he says that he does.
In the west, I have noticed that men tend to be a bit more thirty. They want to hold onto their money. They want to save up what they are earning so that they have some security. As a result, they tend to think that Ukrainian women have a false idea about the value of money. They think that Ukrainian women do not respect it or know how to use it. This is not true. What they are really seeing is just the culture difference. People in Ukraine tend to spend their money, using it all up to have a good time and to get the things that they want.

Don’t jump to conclusions and really hone in on the observable information about her husband’s behavior– in general and in connection with his friend. What does she see when she honestly looks at the facts?
Outbursts and emotional eruptions often come from feeling afraid (of losing the relationship or of being betrayed)and unsupported. When our reader recognizes that she’s jealous of the time and attention her husband is giving his friend, she can take a deep breath and ask herself what she needs right now.
She can become her biggest ally in not just calming down, but in choosing to create a trusting and healthy relationship as well. For her, this might mean finding out whether there’s any proof to support her suspicions and, if there is, to decide what she’ll stay in or leave her marriage.
If there is no proof, being her own biggest ally might mean that this woman gets clearer about why her husband’s friendship feels threatening to her and then make some changes in how she thinks and acts.

I am wondering if you have any advice on trying to move a friendship into something more romantic.
This wonderful girl came to work for my company and ever since she walked in the door I have thought she was absolutely amazing. We share many similarities in our interests, sense of humor, and professional aspirations. In the year that we have worked together we have become friends, spending time with other groups of colleagues as well as with each other’s friends in groups, but we have kept our one-on-one alone time very limited.
I never pursued a romantic relationship with her since we work together, and she reports to me in a number of instances. But now? The situation is changing. We’re both leaving our current company and moving on to separate jobs.
I would love to move things in a more romantic direction, but I have the age old dilemma of risking the friendship. How do I approach this situation with the possibility of preserving a friendship should I get rejected?
Good call on keeping things strictly friendly with this lady thus far. It is all kinds of complicated (and often forbidden) to get involved with a subordinate. Waiting it out was the right thing to do.

Recently I had the chance to chat with a woman who had been married for 46 years. I asked her what was the key to their longevity in marriage; She simply told me commitment throughout the good and the bad.
I followed up and told her that my generation doesn’t necessarily love by that rule anymore. There seems to be universal encouragement telling us to obey the impulse to jump ship anytime we feel uncomfortable, unsure, bored, unstimulated, or tired in a relationship. Here in 2015 we choose to walk away from things that present themselves to be too much of a challenge for our willpower, or our patience. Everything has to bring instant gratification and if it doesn’t then we don’t want it anymore. This isn’t only observable in relationships but also in our day-to-day routines. In college, classes are dropped and majors are changed after one bad grade or one bad test; in friendships people are left behind after one passionate disagreement; and even with employment people will quit after one bad experience. Many people in my generation lack the ability to remain steadfast in their efforts, while staring in the face of tough circumstance.
I have no doubt that today’s relationships continue to be a series of short-lived pleasures, because we live in a culture that doesn’t know commitment past dark times. My highest recommendation to any young

Called “hotel attachment” this simple change in behavior by travelers not only offered the promise of corporate travel program savings, it also improved traveler safety and security and was far more convenient for travelers.
BFFs on the go. Our first “Better Together” campaign (above) featured a cheeky sendup of the enduring friendship and ubiquitous presence of “Air” and “Hotel” to grab travelers’ attention. It quickly became the quirky nudge millennial business travelers and road warriors needed to make the switch and book all their business travel arrangements at the same time. Based on the success from the first campaign, Spyglass was asked to do a refresh. The follow-up campaign (below) featured “Air” and “Hotel” on the go, using corny stock photography for humor, and proved to be another rousing success.
Winning the numbers game. The “Better Together” campaigns achieved 119% performance over goal, generating a rise in attachment by a whopping 10% in year one. In the process it helped CWT’s clients capture larger-than-expected savings.

You can add to finished soup any suitable fresh herbs, crackers or croutons, bread slices, nuts, or top them with favorite condiments and sauces.
For some ideas, "Mexican Style" Cream of Tomato soup is made with added onion, garlic and cooked chicken to the pot, with sour cream and cilantro for garnish. The famous French Onion Soup is generally dished out with a chunk of toast or crouton inside and topped with a thick layer of white cheese (mozzarella, gruyere, swiss, etc) which is put under the broiler before serving.

1. In a large soup pot, simmer oil, onion, and celery. Cook over low heat for 5 to 10 minutes to develop more sweetness in the onion.
2. Add garlic and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Turn up the heat to medium and add the peppers and carrots. Cook another 1 to 2 minutes and add the spices. Stir and cook until fragrant—another minute or so.
3. Add tomatoes and stock, and simmer for 15 minutes. Add beans and chard and simmer for another 5 minutes or until the beans are cooked. (If using cooked cubed meat such as chicken or turkey, add at this time.) Adjust seasonings with salt and pepper as needed.
As the main course this soup is perfect, but be sure that you add other items for adults to eat so that they won’t be underfed. A nice starter salad with a vinaigrette dressing is appetizing before the soup. You might also try adding meat to the soup as an option for those who are not vegetarian. Or grill up some chicken, fish, beef or sausage kabobs and place them on separate plates for those who are interested in making the meal a little more hearty.

Restaurants in big cities in Jiangsu province, Zhejiang province and Shanghai all took “Haimen mutton in stewed soup” as their signature dish.
Mutton in stewed soup is made with elaboration by the white goat of Haimen and is one of the most well known dishes of Nantong. Many complete mutton chops (about half of a goat) are put into big soup pot (a big wooden cask is put above the pot, together known as called “connector”). The mutton soup is milky white and mellow; after mutton is thoroughly cooked, bones are removed. The compacted meat can be used both as cold dish (like cold-cut mutton or lamb cake), or served as semi-products for hot dishes (like braised mutton, twice-cooked mutton), or soup dish (mutton and bean vermicelli soup, clear mutton soup). If cooked into hot dish or soup dish, the ingredients should be original mutton soup without additionally adding clear water.

In fact, the recipe calls for an entire bunch of cilantro! Whereas cilantro is often used to finish a dish, here part of it is tossed in near the beginning to infuse the broth while the rest is added before serving to give it a final fresh herby punch. Since this is a chicken-and-cheese soup, traditionally you would dump in 4 to 6 ounces of cheese and let it dissolve into the soup shortly before serving. However, other recipes for Chupe Criollo advised against adding a bunch of cheese to the soup unless the entire pot will be eaten the same day it is cooked. The problem being that the cheese collects at the bottom of the soup pot in a large lump. I decided to serve the cheese on the side, and have it available to top off the soup instead of melt in it. Even if that’s not entirely authentic, I can assure you that this is an extremely delicious soup and a great introduction to South American cooking.

Whether to cook the rice first depends on your recipe, when you want to add the rice and the variety of rice you are using. Ultimately, you want the rice to be done but not cooked so long that it turns your soup into a gummy concoction.
If you have cooked rice on hand, add it to soup toward the end of cooking. Simply throw it in when the soup is almost done, usually when the soup is turned down to just a simmer. Allow the rice to cook just long enough to warm it up. The longer you cook the already-cooked rice, the more moist and gummy the rice may become; you want it to retain its firmer texture.
If you prepare a big pot of soup and do not have any cooked rice on hand, throw uncooked grains into the soup when it is at a rolling boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and allow the rice to cook just until it's tender. Immediately remove the pan from the stove top after the rice reaches the right consistency. Again, cooking the rice too long can give it an unappealing texture.
Different rice varieties require varying amounts of liquid and cooking times. Make sure the soup has enough liquid to effectively cook the rice. Cook the rice for as long as the variety requires; find this information on the product packaging. Keep in mind the texture you are aiming for. Brown

After reading the Honestly Healthy cookbook this was one of the recipes that had stuck in my mind as something I have got to make! So a couple of nights ago my friend and I did just that, but with a few tweaks…we made it in a blender.
Having one of these high power blenders means that you can make raw soup (yes they are hot!) but blending ensuring that the heat stays below 47degrees and therefore does not spoil the nutrients in the vegetables.
….I admit that the soup we made was not fully raw as we cooked off the onions and spices first, this step seemed important for flavour. We added our cooked onions and spice mix to raw tomatoes (we added a few extra for taste) , coconut milk (we added 2:1 coconut to water ratio) and fresh lime & tamari.
We then blended this for 8 minutes and topped with fresh coriander.

Pea and Ham Soup was a Rick Stein recipe from a Delicious Magazine. It uses a cheap and easy to find veggie - the frozen pea! The ham hock is also a budget ingredient and by boiling it up in stock imparts the fabulous flavour. The meat doesn't go to waste and is chopped up and added to the thick green soup. The soup was delicious with the salt and smokiness of the ham balancing against the fresh pea flavour.
I've never cooked with Jerusalem Artichoke before so I decided to try it out in a soup. Jerusalem Artichoke wasn't exactly as budget an ingredient, with the soup requiring 3 packets of it. They didn't even have enough at the fruit and veggie store. My hubbie was a bit apprehensive after noticing it's similarity to ginger - one of the only foods he can't stomach!

It makes perfect sense if you think about it.
Strawberries, with their awe-inspiring color, intoxicating aroma, and sweet and fruity beauty; they clearly represent a "Yes." And we'll just go ahead and tell you what else definitely doesn't represent a "No," and that's the almond. These blistered California almonds... "YES". And what of the poppy seed, with its delicate, crunchy, diminutive demeanor and potently nutty flavor; does this angel of a seed not deserve a "Yes?" Rhetorical. This is such a wonderful, and frankly, surprising medley of flavors that all we could keep shouting at each other was, "Yes Yes Yes!" So you can see how this all comes together.

You’ve probably had that experience before, sitting over coffee with someone where the conversation is so riveting that time melts away and you leave stimulated, your brain swirling with thoughts and ideas. The creative energy generates so many new ideas that you have to write them down and decide where you might begin, where you might take an action or share a new thought with others.
You’ve probably had the other experience too. The one where the conversation isn’t two-way. The tone is negative, self-serving, or unproductive. You might have been in a place where you gave up trying to participate, or worse…you were fearful to bring your ideas to light.
It’s true. Human beings transform through conversation with others, and meaningful discourse that generates creative ideas, new ways of thinking and acceptance are what we crave. We want to be heard and seen. And most of us lack the skills for productive conflict.

An example of a dry text is the one which does not give a girl any sort of thrill or excitement. Similarly, the text that seems so logical is not interesting at all.

Retrieved Text: One of the trickiest things about managing an open source project is getting people to be thoughtful about which forum they choose for different kinds of communications. It's tricky partly because it's not immediately obvious that it matters. During any given conversation, the participants are mostly concerned with what the people involved are saying, and won't usually stop to think about whether or not the forum itself gives others who might want to take part the opportunity to do so.
For example, a real-time forum like IRC is terrific for quick questions, for opportunistic synchronization of work, for reminding someone of something they promised to do, etc. But it's not a good forum for making decisions that affect the whole project, because the people who take part in a conversation in IRC are just whoever happened to be in the channel at that moment — it's very dependent on work schedules, time zones, etc. On the other hand, the development mailing list is a great place for making formal project-wide decisions, since every interested party will have an opportunity to see and respond to the relevant posts, even though it's not as well-suited to quick, real-time interactions as IRC is.
Another example comes up frequently in bug tracker usage, especially in the last few years as bug trackers have become so well integrated with email. Sometimes people will be drawn into a discussion in a bug ticket and because they simply see project-related emails coming in to their email client, they treat the discussion as though it's happening

First of all, let us see the full-forms of this word.
Both of these phrases are completely opposite of each other and your misinterpretation can change the whole direction of the conversation. So be careful.
As the name itself explains, ‘‘hate my life’’ is an expression used by the people to exaggerate the negative emotions and aspects/events that are taking place in their lives at the present.
‘Hate my life’ (HML) is the complete opposite of Love My life (LML). Although this can be a little overstating the events in one’s life but is used by the people anyways. This also helps them to get a little sense of relief as they share their thoughts with the other person.

Furthermore, relationships that are built in the space can be vital to the success of a business.
More significantly, though, is the fact your coworking space can be a place where much creativity is born, especially if the space is designed to encourage it. The social and often affable atmosphere makes it a place where professionals feel comfortable with letting their hair down.

Of the many office designs, the coworking space provides your business with the foundation for being creative by providing workspace in a more relaxed environment.

Most of us probably did not get to sit in a hammock above a beach and just relax for a few days.
So, how do you engage with your team as they are beginning to feel the “end of summer blues” too?
One tip is to give them something to look forward to for the rest of the year! What does this actually look like?
We’d suggest taking 30 minutes over the next week or two to meet with each team member.
Begin by asking engaging questions about them.
How are they doing? What are they enjoying about their job? Why? What would they like to do more of? What are they passionate about?
As they are talking, really listen to what they are saying and seek to understand more of who they are and where they are coming from.
At the end of your time together, decide on one thing that they can do as a result of this conversation.
This won’t necessarily take away the blues of another summer that has slipped away but it probably will give each team member something to look forward to in the weeks to come!

Wood or metal? Classic or contemporary? Statement-making thick or barely there minimalist?

My wife and I face this decision now and again when we decide to frame something important - a new photo of our children or a piece of art we've found.
Frames matter. Here's another angle to framing. It's about how conversations get framed, especially conversations about communities.
Perhaps a visit to fictitious Midville can illustrate the point. Think of Midville as an average community. It could be a town or a neighborhood; its residents are good folks - folks who care about where they live.
When they gather at the corner coffee shop, the beauty parlor, at their kids' soccer games or even virtually in the online discussion board, midvillebabble.com, they talk about what's going on in the community.

In October 1899, twenty-two year-old Frankie Baker, of St. Louis, shot her seventeen year-old boyfriend, Allen Britt, after he returned home from a dancing contest. He had won a slow-dancing prize with Nellie Bly, the song’s ‘other woman’. Britt died from his wounds a few days later. That same year a song called ‘Frankie Killed Allen’ appeared, and in 1912, the song - more or less - took on its current form as ‘Frankie and Johnnie’. It has been performed and recorded by a vast and somewhat eclectic array of artists - Lead Belly, Bob Dylan, Doc Watson, Merle Haggard, Elvis Presley, Sammy Davis Jnr and Gene Vincent, to name but a few. The YouTube video will give you some ideas about what you can do to spice up the song’s otherwise rather bland chords.

Translation:The man sees a woman.
Why is there a t at end of woman?
That's the accusative case marker. The woman is the direct object of "see" (she's the thing being seen) and nő is in the accusative case as nőt to mark that.
A bit like in English we would say "I see him" and not "I see he" -- the "him" has to be in the objective case as the direct object.
Could you translate this as "The man looks at the woman"?
No. "look" and "see" are different words in English, just as "néz" and "lát" in Hungarian.
How about "The man watches a woman?"
Not really. Lát is the more passive 'seeing'. 'To watch' would be better translated with néz or figyel.
Could I also say, "Egy no"t a férfi lát" and "A férfi egy no"t lát", and if so, would these be different nuances of the same idea?
Yes, either is possible. You can also go full circle and add "Egy nőt lát a férfi." And a couple more.
A férfi lát egy nőt. - Pretty neutral. If you put a bit vocal emphasis on "a férfi", it gets focus on the fact that the man is doing the seeing, not anybody else.
Egy nőt a férfi lát. - Same as above, but a bit more uncommon, since the topic here, "a woman", is indefinite. You can use it if the topic of the talk has been about women in general.

One of the most discussed elements was the decision-making process between doing what is right and doing what is necessary. First-person role-playing game Family Man looks to take a close look at that aspect through the lens of the 2008 financial crisis.
Normally I shy away from the low-polygon look of a lot of 3D indie games (though there are always exceptions), but the trailer and the premise behind Family Man have me intrigued. Following the descent from a decent job to a less desirable one to a life of crime could be a poignant commentary on the world today. I'm mostly curious to see how developer Blue Button Games handles player choice; branching pathways and multiple endings are advertised, so it could be interesting to see what happens to those who don't go down the path of murder-for-hire.

An unhinged man pulled open the back door of a WPIX news van and slapped the cell phone out of a reporter’s hand in Queens Wednesday, then tried to run him over with an SUV, according to video footage obtained by the Daily News and sources familiar with the incident.
Suddenly, a man walked up to the back of the van and pulled open the back door, while a startled Benavides recorded him with his cell phone camera, sources said.
“Dude, what are you doing, what are you doing?” Benavides says.

THE WOMANIZER. THE LOVER. THE CONTROLLER. THE PEACEMAKER. THE PEOPLE-PLEASER. THE CONFUSED ONE. INDECISIVE. THE TEACHER. THE WOBBLER. THE PACK MULE. SENSITIVE ONE.
The purpose of our man-brands -- to identify, then claim ownership and then seek to understand why we choose these positions and posturing as men. Not so much only as men, but as people -- with a specific gender-orientation. Be strong (at least appear strong). Don't show emotion. Anger is okay but not fear (though we're often fearful). We want to love but showing loving gestures could be a sign of weakness. We want to be gentle and tender but we've had little or no guidance or training on how to do this.
We are where we are...the sum total of all the man-beliefs we've learned and then empowered. But we come to understand we can change our beliefs...and thus change our man-brands.

Remember, men like to keep it simple. In order for a man to want to commit to you, he needs to feel that you will simplify his life, while adding to his happiness.
In other words, keep the drama to a minimum. Although some men may not be ready to make a full commitment to a woman within the first month or two months dating her, it does not mean they cannot fall in love and be excited to get married to the woman of their dreams.
Men have no clue how they truly feel about a woman in the long-term until they become brave enough to get to know a woman beyond her looks and the physical pleasures she can offer.
In other words, you have just as much of a shot to land your dream man than any other woman. To make yourself as attractive as possible to the man of your dreams, you need to give him the right impression about you from the start. Do not chase him.

For a man who desires to be real and responsible, it's no big deal for him to learn what are the things that would bring joy between himself and his spouse. These things are little but much and expensive for a man who has no clue on what to do to make his wife happy.

The most common reason why is because the man is not present. Men spend a lot of time working, watching TV, going out with friends, playing games… This is not a had behavior, because they can still manage to be good fathers that support their family. However, if they don’t pay enough attention to their partner, she could feel neglected and she might even leave.
Here is what every man needs to know, to keep a woman by his side, happy and satisfied.
Simply, you don’t own her soul. Maybe you win her on the first date, but that doesn’t’ mean you should stop there. Be there for her every day, every moment. Talk to your woman about what matters to her and to feel that you’re listening to her.
Women don’t want absent-minded men, especially in your intimate moments. She wants to feel your passion. Show her that she still arouses you. If you’ve lost it, find out the reason. Once it will be discovered, you will definitely feel alive again. And, she will stay!
Try to listen to your wife. Ask her, what is on her mind. Try to notice things. Look at her deeply. If she asks what you’re doing, just tell her: “I’m looking into you. I want to see you deeply. I’m curious about who you are. After all these years I still want to know who you

What is the fun when your husband or boyfriend thinks and feels the way you do? It would be like looking into a mirror, knowing exactly what to expect next.
Now lets see what goes on in a man's mind. Did you know that a man is less complicated than what he actually seems. What do men want? Very simple, they need a sense of security (like most women) and the feel that they can trust you completely. They love taking care of women, to the extent of pampering their manliness. On the same level they look up to women who are confident and emotionally strong (when I say strong, I don't mean overpowering or over bearing).

I know I promised the Santa Reindeer pattern would be released for December, but life keeps getting in the way of it being done! Finally, I decided yesterday to help things along a little. My husband usually washes the dishes in the evening after I've gone to bed. Yesterday, I washed them myself (big belly in the way and all) so he could use the time in the evening to work on the pattern. The plan worked great for a time... he was working away at the formatting, while I was putting the last of the decorations on our tree. Then we heard a *bang* outside the house. Well, the students around here have a habit of setting off firecrackers around exam-time, so we didn't even blink. Then, about a minute later, an even louder *bang* with a bright flash, and the power went out! The transformer just down the block had exploded, and the power line was actually on fire! Crazy, eh?
So, without any electricity for the rest of the evening, obviously the pattern wasn't finished. Thankfully, the Quebec Hydro people managed to fix the lines temporarily, so we didn't wake up to a frozen apartment. They replaced the power lines this morning, so hopefully such excitement won't be happening again. I realized one thing though: we should own a flashlight!

"Today's my last day," said Joseph DeRoach, who has helped children cross at the corner of 18th and Turner streets near the Cathedral of St. Catharine school since 1976. "My eyesight's going bad, and I'm going to quit."
In 1982 the Allentown solicitor discovered that DeRoach was 19 years past the retirement age of 70. The center-city man, who sold Dutch Masters cigars for 20 years, was nearly fired.
"I didn't do anything about it at first," said DeRoach. "My friends called up City Hall. I don't know how they handled it, and I didn't think it was my business to get mixed up in it. It was all straightened out, though. I don't know how."
His friends' efforts paid off. Council amended the city's ordinance on retirement, allowing part-time workers to remain in their positions past 70. "I did the job the way it was supposed to be done," he said. "They had no business firing me."
For nearly 10 years, DeRoach stood on the corner of 18th and Turner streets from 8:30 to 9:30 every morning and from 2:15 to 3:15 every weekday afternoon. He made $10.30 a day. But yesterday, he stood on the corner for the last time. As children ran from the school at the start of Christmas vacation, about 50 kids didn't forget DeRoach. They walked to the corner, surrounded the 92-year old man and sang "Santa Claus is Coming to Town." DeRoach

When she called police because her 22-year-old son, Elijah, had become agitated during a holiday dinner, Neketa Roberts of Albany explained that he suffered from mental illness.
Despite the advance notice, police didn't handle the situation well, according to her account.
"One of the officers told my son, 'You need to calm down before I Tase you,' " Roberts said, referring to the use of a Taser, a brand of stun gun.
Roberts and her family told the cop he was out of line. Luckily, her son — who is 5 feet 9, 215 pounds, strong and sometimes difficult to control — was able to regain his composure. But the police officer's approach may well have exacerbated the young man's anxiety instead. The officer later told Roberts that he used the Taser threat "as a scare tactic" to get her son to obey him.
So we have an officer facing a man in mental health crisis, a man with known psychological and developmental disabilities. The officer's plan - verbally threaten to tase him until he calmed down.
And if he didn't calm down, what then? Does he tase him? If that enrages rather than sedates him (as is often the case with people in mental health crisis, as they process stimuli in distinct ways),

The ad – which, spoiler alert: WILL GIVE YOU GOOSE BUMPS is full of scenes of men um, not being their best selves, and then switches to a montage of men and boys doing the right thing over, and over, and over. It speaks of change, because, honestly? Gillette is right in inferring that what’s been acceptable behavior in society for men and boys for centuries is really not ok.

Everyone needs a mediator, or so it seems.
Nowhere is the need greater than in our relationship with God. A mediator is someone who can represent both sides in an estranged relationship.
Jesus qualifies because he is God and man at the same time.
Fully God and fully man.
Because he shares our humanity, he represents us before the Father.
Because he is God incarnate, he can bear the burden of our sins.
Note that there is “one mediator” and only one between God and man. No one else can do what Jesus does. He “stands in the gap” between God and man, making peace by the blood of the cross.
When God called for Adam after the Fall, the guilty head of the human race hid because of his shame. But now we do not shrink from God, sinners though we are, because Jesus our mediator has opened the way to the Father.

This is the most basic one: a present continuous verb. The subject in the sentence is "man" and "is walking" tells us what he is doing right now. If you see an -ing verb after a be verb (am, is, are, was, were), it is probably a continuous verb.
Another name for continuous verbs is progressive verbs. Continuous and progressive are the same.
The walking man lives with my friend Paul.
The man walking across the street lives with my friend Paul.
In both of these sentences, walking works like an adjective, not a verb. Walking describes the man, and the verb in the sentence is lives. When an -ing verb describes a noun, we call it a participial adjective. Participial adjectives can come before or after the noun, but it is more common to put them after the noun.
Read a little more about participial adjectives here.
In this sentence, we have a subject: the man. We have a verb: likes . What is the -ing verb here? It's the thing that the man likes. What does he like? Walking. Walking is the object of like. What are some other things you can like? Sports, travel, English. All nouns. Object of verbs are nouns, so walking is acting as a noun here.

However if you’re looking for high-end audio that also supports digital assistants, you’ll be pleased to learn (your bank account might disagree) that Bang & Olufsen has announced that its Beosound 1 and Beosound 2 speakers have recently been updated where they will now come with Google Assistant integration.
The Beosound 1 and 2 speakers aren’t new products but the company is now shipping them with Google Assistant integration, giving them a “smarter” and more modern update. Basically what it means is that these speakers will now have the same functionality as you would expect from other Google Assistant-enabled devices, like the Google Home, and will be capable of doing everything Google Assistant can do.
The update to the speakers will also see Bang & Olufsen introduce four buttons on the top of the speaker which users can assign to their favorite tasks, such as streaming from a particular radio station, quick access to your favorite playlist, and more. As expect from Bang & Olufsen, these speakers do not come cheap and are priced at $1,750 for the Beosound 1, and $2,250 for the Beosound 2, and both speakers are expected to be available mid-September and early October respectively.

Wireless home theater speakers are a way of avoiding the need to have cables running all the way around your room in a multi-speaker setup. In most cases, only the rear speakers will be set-up wirelessly. When choosing speakers, you will need to consider whether to buy add-on units or a complete new speaker and receiver system.
It's important to note that, despite the name, wireless home theater speakers can actually have more cables than standard speaker systems. This is because each speaker requires some form of power. This can either be through a built-in amplifier, which must be connected to a power socket, or through an external amplifier, which is wired to both the power socket and the speaker. This means that it's usually possible to avoid lengthy cable runs by using wireless home theater speakers, but there can still be a lot of cabling involved, particularly if power outlets are not conveniently located for your chosen speaker sites. There are a few systems that are powered by batteries, but the performance is likely to be less impressive.
You will need to decide if you want to have all speakers be wireless, or merely some of them. In many rooms, somebody who wants to cut down on trailing wires may find that there is no problem with wired speakers at the front and center and that they only need wireless options for the rear speakers. The main advantage of doing it this way is that the costs are

Mounted speakers: There are a variety of speakers that can be attached to the house or porch. These speakers are weatherproof and come on a swivel mount to direct the sound down. Our preference on the high end is Bose 251 Wall Mount Outdoor Environmental Speakers and for a mid-range speaker the Polk Atrium 5 series.
Rock speakers: For those who want to hide their sound in the garden, rock speakers or environmental speakers are very popular. The Niles Audio rock speaker delivers years of worry free use in all types of weather conditions and sounds fabulous. Another style of garden speaker (and Lew’s personal favorite) is the Bose Free Space Environmental Speaker.

anything like a jbl ms-8, arc dsp/dxe, audison bit series. something with an AUX input that will give you the ability to control what the sound is doing, and control the amps. it just depends on how indepth you wanna get. you can get an amp to run speakers and run the headphone jack of the ipod to the amp. or you could get a JBL ms-8 and power your speakers with that and use the AUX input for the ipod, or use a mix of all the above.

This will allow the signal to reach each speaker in about the same instant. I say "about" because there are variations in the wire which could cause the signal to reach one speaker slightly (fractions of a fraction of a second) before the other. By making the two lengths equal, you ensure that this delay remains tiny and unnoticeable.
The two front speakers should be the same distance from the audience as the center channel. Doing this will ensure that the sound will travel from each speaker to the audience in the same amount of time and reduce the chances of their being a noticeable delay between what takes place on screen to when you hear it. Each of the front speakers should also be positioned an equal distance from the TV on either side.

There are several options available when dealing with Amplifiers!
A Mono Amplifier is probably the type we sell the most of, due to the effect most people are trying to accomplish. These are most common if you are powering just a Subwoofer. Do you already have a Subwoofer and you just need to match it up? If this is the case we would need to know the RMS Watts and impedance on the Subs to properly complete your system.
2- Channel Amplifiers are great for Powering a pair of speakers, these have a great use in Vehicle with rear speakers or seats. For example a Regular Cab truck.
3-Channel Amplifiers are like having two Amplifiers in one. Generally you are able to run a Subwoofer as well as a set of speakers off these amps.
If you are looking for something versatile and capable of powering an entire speaker system in a vehicle look to a 4-Channel Amplifier.

Though common sense would dictate that both should be used as needed, the reality is that there might arise certain situations where using one particular type might make more sense both cost-wise and from a feasibility point of view over its counterpart.
Today’s post will shed some light on these situations and what in-wall and in-ceiling speakers are good for. People who are looking to build a home theatre system would find this information particularly useful.
Let’s take ceiling speakers first. They are dependent on distance from the TV. If you’re TV set is on the ground, the distance from the TV to the ceiling speaker is a key factor. The greater the distance the more it impacts performance. This is why ceiling speakers tend to work best with TV’s that are mounted high on the wall. This reduces the distance between the two. Projector screens work perfectly with ceiling speakers.
In-wall speakers on the other hand are best suited for the front wall around the TV display. There is no denying they add to the aesthetic beauty of a room however from a performance point of view, they truly shine when placed on the front wall. This is the best choice for audio/video lockup. The user is properly positioned to face the dispersion patterns of the speakers.

Where use of the multiple speaker terminals is an advantage, is if you have twin stereo amps (or 4 mono-blocks) with an external cross-over to direct bass to the woofers & treble to the tweeters – now that’s serious stuff! This is not so much Bi-wiring, but Bi-Amping.

But what was even more surprising, I learned, was that China is turning out about 20 million English speakers a year, and according to a British Council report quoted by Backman, there are currently 176.7 million schoolchildren and adults studying English in China.

Well, these Smart Speakers claim to be able to answer all these vital questions. According to tech advisors NPR, 1 in 6 Americans (which is 16% or 39 million people) own a smart speaker. About 7% of Americans bought their smart speaker between Black Friday and the end of 2017. Many companies have made Smart Speakers, including: Google, Amazon and Apple. These companies have made these speakers to help people around the house. Some of the features of these devices are: playing music, turning on smart lights and they can even tell jokes.
In a recent study carried out by the BBC, 3 Smart Speakers (Homepod, Alexa and Google Home) were asked a series of random questions. I have compiled a few of the most surprising answers that the Smart Speakers replied with.
When asked, How long has Theresa May been Prime Minister? Alexa was able to give the correct answer. Another astonishing reply was that both Google Home and Alexa were able to correctly tell people the quickest way to get to work. In my opinion, the most shocking answer reply was that Alexa and Google Home were both able to correctly give the current leader in Formula 1 racing. These responses show that these Smart Speakers are all

It was on a Sunday afternoon. It happened unexpectedly, was pretty rough, but didn’t hurt as badly as I was originally thinking it would.
I’ve had my first (very minor) accident with my road bike.
A boy, maybe 8 years old or so, was day-dreaming on the cycle path and, even though I kept as much to the right as possible, he very slightly bumped into me. Or rather barely touched me, as I steered into the gravel on the side to avoid a head-on collision.
I fell, the boy didn’t. Nothing bad happened though. Chain came off. Some blood on one of my fingers. That’s all. I wasn’t really upset or mad at all. In fact, I even apologized (though I had already slowed down considerably and it really wasn’t my fault). But the boy’s father insisted that it was the boy’s fault and that he should look where he’s cycling. I think the father was even a bit suprised that I didn’t get upset, but I didn’t feel like it.

By now, you'd have to be in a coma not to have heard the account of the Belgian man who was diagnosed as being "brain dead" for 23 years, but was recently found by doctors to have normal brain function and who further claims that he had been conscious through the entire period. He's now communicating via a special keyboard and thus is able to finally share his heartbreaking story with the world.
I saw a televised report of this story this morning on a national news show, and what I saw was a "facilitator" using the man's finger to type on a keyboard. I was puzzled about a minor detail: how does she know what he wants to type? The "facilitator" is said to be specially trained to detect - and interpret - faint movements by the subject, and translate them into coherent communications. This is a wonderful skill to possess...if indeed it actually exists.
James Randi thinks it's a "cruel farce," and lays out his impassioned case against "Facilitated Communication," of which, he says, this is simply the most recent example.

By now, you'd have to be in a coma not to have heard the account of the Belgian man who was diagnosed as being "brain dead" for 23 years, but was recently found by doctors to have normal brain function and who further claims that he had been conscious through the entire period. He's now communicating via a special keyboard and thus is able to finally share his heartbreaking story with the world.
I saw a televised report of this story this morning on a national news show, and what I saw was a "facilitator" using the man's finger to type on a keyboard. I was puzzled about a minor detail: how does she know what he wants to type? The "facilitator" is said to be specially trained to detect - and interpret - faint movements by the subject, and translate them into coherent communications. This is a wonderful skill to possess...if indeed it actually exists.
James Randi thinks it's a "cruel farce," and lays out his impassioned case against "Facilitated Communication," of which, he says, this is simply the most recent example.

Sean Murray, managing director of No Man's Sky developer Hello Games, has said the studio's upcoming sandbox space game is ideal for virtual reality.
"I think it's perfect fit for virtual reality," he said in a new interview with GameSpot.
When presented with the idea that No Man's Sky could be the game that sells PlayStation VR to PS4 owners, Murray said the ability to fully immerse yourself in galactic exploration was a childhood dream.
"I think that No Man's Sky, which is this infinite computer generated universe, and PlayStation VR, which is a headset that you put on and enter a VR space is like, it's like you've asked me when I was five what the future would look like."

But where did Gary Davis get his skills? Most blues guitar players have a kind of natural aptitude that comes up when they are very young, and they either borrow a simple guitar or they make their own out of a cigar box.
However, you can only go so far this way - even innate brilliance needs encouragement and direction. It was said that by the time he was 33, he was 'scared of no guitar player!' He did have a lot of respect for certain players though - Broonzy ('nobody could swing it like Bill'), Blind Blake ('he was sportin' guitar player') and most of all Blind Willie Walker.
Unlike Davis and Fuller, Walker was blind from birth, which might partly explain his almost supernatural skill on the guitar. It's not certain exactly when, but Davis had contact with Walker who must have had a big influence on his playing - he learned songs like Make Believe Stunt and Cincinatti Slow Drag from him.
Tragically for us, Walker was a very obscure person, probably making a living in his local area playing for parties and other events. he only cut two sides - Dupree Blues, and old standard story telling blues song in the style of Frankie and Johnny, and South Carolina Rag.

RING FINGER: This is the fourth finger and is located between the middle finger and the little finger. Its name comes from ancient Greece where it was believed that you had a vein that connected this finger directly to the heart, so lovers chose to put a ring on this finger as a token of love.

Taken from his Under the Banyan Tree and Other Stories collection the story is narrated in the third person by an unnamed narrator and after reading the story the reader realises that Narayan may be exploring the theme of judgement. The hermit is continually judging the woman in the house opposite in a negative way. Basing his opinion of her on the amount of men who come to her home on a daily basis. Though the hermit can’t prove it he considers that the woman’s house is a house of ill-repute and as such she should not be allowed to live on the same street as him. This may be important as the hermit is not showing any charity to the woman though he himself is a religious man. If anything he is thinking only of his own discomfort rather than how desperate the woman herself may be living the lifestyle she is living. At no stage in the story does the hermit attempt to make a connection with the woman and to discover what her real story may be. If anything the hermit is working off assumptions when it comes to how he interprets the woman.
It is however interesting that the hermit does eventually pity the old woman when he thinks more about her life and sees her closer when she offers him some food. A charitable act that in many ways may upset the hermit as

According to a report out of China, that’s exactly what happened to one woman when a colleague was able to easily unlock her iPhone X on multiple attempts. The woman was reportedly able to get a refund, but Apple didn’t exactly make it easy.
First, she called Apple’s help line to explain the issue, but her request was ignored. So she headed to a nearby Apple Store with her colleague to demonstrate the bug in person. At that point, the report says Apple offered a refund, which the woman used to buy a new iPhone X. But when the same thing happened again she took the device back for a second refund.
Speaking to HuffPost, an Apple spokesperson said they couldn’t confirm the news. However, they did suggest that the two women may have used the iPhone X’s passcode training to trick it into recognizing two different faces. Then again, maybe it really was a Face ID glitch.
Either way, the lesson seems to be that if Face ID doesn’t work you can probably get a refund on your iPhone from Apple, but you’ll have to be able to prove it in person at your local Apple Store first.

Proverbs describes her as a woman who is both public and powerful — calling out in the streets, teaching the (presumably male) child who is being addressed by Proverbs, and even declaring her presence with God during creation. As a distinctly feminine image claiming an intimate relationship with God, she is a particularly attractive target for feminist analysis. At the same time, she sits within a strongly patriarchal text, within a frame narrative of a father educating his son.

1. Don’t tell God how to answer your prayers. When Mary goes to Jesus to tell Him about the situation, all she does is present the problem to Him. “They have no wine” (v 2). That’s it. She doesn’t ask Him to do anything. She doesn’t suggest a way for Him to remedy it. She doesn’t give her own opinion at all. All she does is present the problem to the Son of God.
2. Don’t get discouraged if He doesn’t answer right away. At first Jesus seems to mildly rebuke her. “Woman, what does this have to do with me? My hour has not yet come” (v 4). Mary is undeterred. She doesn’t argue with Him or plead her cause. She doesn’t get mad or impatient. In fact, the Bible doesn’t record that she even responds to Jesus’ statement directly.
3. Don’t second-guess His answer. After Jesus’ somewhat ambiguous response, Mary tells the servants, “Do whatever He tells you.” She’s presented the problem, and she trusts that Jesus will do what needs to be done. She doesn’t know how He’ll fix the problem, but she knows He will.

On perhaps no issue has the question of what can or cannot be debated been more sharply contested than that of transgenderism. How should society, and the law, look upon people who were born male but see themselves as female? Trying to answer that question has led to bitter confrontations between trans activists, determined to secure full rights for trans people, and “gender critical” feminists worried that the notion of what it is to be a woman is being transformed to the detriment of women’s rights.
In Britain, the government’s consultation on proposed changes to the Gender Recognition Act ended last month. At its heart was the question of whether trans people can decide for themselves what should be their legally defined gender.
For trans people, the freedom to define themselves is vital. To question, as many feminists do, whether a trans woman is “really a woman” is, activists insist, to threaten the individual’s identity. It does irreparable harm by subjecting trans people to mental trauma and giving succour to violent bigots. “I deeply resent the idea that my identity gets to be ‘debated’ in the first place,” wrote the American activist Jennifer Finney Boylan.

A: Well, since relationships in which both people are controlling are so common in our culture, there is plenty of hope that the relationship will survive. The question is how good of a relationship will it be eve if it does survive.
You and the woman you are dating both need to learn to overcome your fears of abandonment (focusing on if the relationship will last…) and instead learn to focus on caring about what the other person wants, communicating your own wants clearly, and effective problem-solving. All of these factors are more about how good the relationship is while it lasts, and that’s far more important than how the relationship will end.
I’d suggest that you attend some of the excellent couple’s workshops offered by social service agencies, individual therapists, and some churches. They usually focus on communication and cooperation. If she isn’t willing to attend, contact the leaders of these programs and ask them about attending on your own or acquiring the same skills in some other way.

This expansive depiction of the haystacks at Montfoucault is somewhat reminiscent of previous landscapes at Pontoise in that it includes a broad view of the fields among the surrounding hills. The striking difference is that the Pontoise paintings included the houses of L’Hermitage. This painting is totally agricultural, showing only fields against a heavily wooded area, which emphasizes its total isolation.
Our eyes are immediately drawn to the large haystacks in the center front, anchored at the right by a large tree, whose tall branches lead the eye upward into the billowy clouds and bright azure sky. Another haystack to the right forms what is practically an isosceles triangle, making the composition symmetrical and providing a sense of stability.
The strength of the sunlight, evident in the golden grain scattered across the field, is intensified by the long lavender shadows in the lower left, which suggest the coming sunset. The palette takes a slice from the color wheel, advancing from yellow-gold in the foreground to the lush green of the tree and the forest in the background to the deep azure blue of the sky. The progression is interrupted only by the painterly clouds whose puffiness sets up a rhythm in the sky contrasting the solidity of the triangle below.

Until recently, celiac disease was thought to be rare in the United States. However over the past ten years, the reported prevalence has increased from 1 in 4600 persons to 1 in 133 persons. The latest estimate makes the prevalence comparable to the prevalence in Europe, where the disease is considered to be common.
Celiac disease is a chronic illness occurring in genetically susceptible persons resulting in inflammatory changes in the upper small bowel as a consequence of intolerance to the gliadin in ingested wheat, rye, and barley. Fortunately, celiac disease can be effectively managed by strict adherence to a gluten free diet. However, dietary management can be quite challenging.
The present descriptive, correlational research study included 156 adults self-reporting a diagnosis of celiac disease. The purpose of this study was to examine factors and perceived causes that interfere with adherence to a gluten free diet, to identify coping strategies, and to examine the relationship between coping strategies and quality of life. The theoretical framework was a combination of two theoretical models: 1) Lazarus model of stress and 2) the model of behavioral self-regulation by Carver and Sheier. Instruments used were the Demographic Information and Health and Diet History Questionnaire, the Psychological General Well-Being Index, and the Brief COPE.
Results from the study indicated that problems outside the home, especially in restaurants and the expense of gluten free foods are factors that interfere with dietary adherence. A moderate

I use the Social Relations Model to partition the variance into several sets of measurements including group, individual (both actor and partner), and relationship variance. For many of the variables under study, we might think that there would be more variance at the individual level than at the level of the relationship. Among the domains reviewed was liking (both romantic and non-romantic), personality (Big Five, anxiety, attachment, and religious models), and behavior (self-disclosure, and social support, aggression). Just using the median across the nine domains, relationship explains nearly a third of the variance and it is the largest or tied as largest source of variance in 8 of the 9 domains. Relationships are a dominant source of variance.
Why is it then that we focus so little on relationships? The reasons are in part cultural, linguistic, statistical, and theoretical.
Finally, I discussed how we might understand how to study or understand why there is such a great deal of relationship variance. I outlined three different approaches: The first is that behavior and perceptions are determined by factors that vary at the level of the relationship. For instance, it might be we like people more if we interact with them more. Rate of interaction is a relational variable. So within this approach we look for factors that explain relationship variance. The second is more theoretically interesting. It examines the fit or match between

In fact, some observers hope that rising levels of cohabitation will minimize or eliminate existing differences between the two. Yet a study in Norway, where cohabitation and marriage are treated as near equals—and where the former is more commonplace than the latter among adults under 35—found less support for cohabitation being like marriage than the researchers anticipated.
Looking at a sample of nearly 2,500 respondents under age 59 to the first wave (2002–03) of the Norwegian Life Course, Aging, and Generation study, the researchers explored how four categories of married couples and cohabitants fared against three measures of well-being commonly used in marital research. While they did not uncover large disparities as have other studies, differences across the four types of couples (never-married cohabitants, previously married cohabitants, first-time married couples, and remarried couples) were significant for the relationship quality index (p<.05), relationship satisfaction (p<.01), and life satisfaction (p<.001). Even as the effect sizes were small, the differences were due in all cases to never-married cohabitants reporting lower scores than the three other couple categories. The similarities of the other three couple categories are reflected in, for example, formerly married cohabitants reporting the same levels of well-being as married persons (whether in their first or subsequent marriages).

Description: The issue of different forms of employment in Sweden has become particularly relevant in recent years. One of the most important reasons is the situation for the ever-increasing proportion of persons with a foreign background. The share of individuals employed is significantly lower among people with a foreign background than for those with a Swedish background. Differences in employment rates between persons with foreign and Swedish backgrounds contribute to socioeconomic inequality which, in turn, can contribute to increased segregation. Self-employment in the form of private companies or limited companies without employees can be an alternative to being an employee and may be of particular interest to persons with a foreign background in terms of their employment. The driving forces behind starting and running a business can be very different depending upon a number of factors. These factors can among other things be connected to either positive or negative individual motives, differing market conditions, or incentives carried out by government or institutions. Much of the focus of this paper is on the various driving forces that can contribute to the decision to start and run a small business, especially for people with a foreign background.

Falling in love is about meeting someone, and realizing a “chemistry” with that person. In love, all you want to do is to be with the person to feel his or her presence. There exists interest, curiosity and need. This is a time of exploration and fun. Sometimes it is also a time of anxiety of being with someone new. These emotions make us feel fresh and somewhat alive.

In several respects, the heart of what Dallas Willard is carrying out, and of what he is commending, accords with the claims of covenant epistemology. Covenant epistemology claims that all knowing is relational knowing, and the better we are at cultivating the knowing as an interpersonal relationship, the better we will be at knowing. This is true of knowing rose bushes or carpentry. It’s obviously true of knowing persons, though we always seem to need to be reminded to treat persons as persons. Covenant epistemology also means we should see knowing persons and knowing rosebushes as working the same way, in many respects—interpersonally. It takes challenging the presumed distinction between knowing rose bushes and knowing persons to make us better at both. Knowing God, of course, is knowing a person of the most unique sort.

The first term implies a wedding between to faiths, hence between two religions; as secular Jews we try to avoid using this term. More suitable is the latter term: intermarriage as it is a neutral term. But we would like to call it Intercultural marriages. We prefer the use of the world culture because we do not think that culture can be neutral, or neutralized. A person's culture is also his or hers national affiliation, sense of belonging, identity. One of the composites of each culture is religion. A union between two persons of different cultures is a new creation, but it can not be indifferent to each culture. Identities have to find their proper place in a union like this.
Intercultural marriages are between two persons, one belonging to the Jewish culture that decides to form a binding commitment with a person outside of the Jewish culture.

The Christian doctrine of the Trinity is easily one of the most mysterious, and least understood Christian doctrines. The pat Christian-y answer to someone who doesn't understand the Trinity is simply, "God is three-in-one... One God, three persons."
Sometimes people try to explain how God is three-in-one by using water as an illustration. "Water," they say "can be ice, vapor or liquid... but it's still water."
Or they'll show an egg and explain that there's a shell, a white and the yellow center, but the thing is still an egg. For the life of me, I don't know how that one works, exactly. But still, it's still widely used.
The fact of the matter is that the doctrine of the Trinity is hard to understand and even harder to describe. None of our feeble words seem to really do it justice.
Father... Son... Spirit.... this is the way the Church has come to understand the tri-unity of God.
And for a lot of people, this seems strange. Many non-Christians struggle with this understanding of God, and Christians don't do a very good job of explaining it. After all, it is mysterious and odd.
The fact of the matter is that Christians muddle up this whole Trinity thing pretty well---even with our best words and images.

what's the relationship between the output current limit and input current limit of LTM8055?
"The maximum output current depends upon the input voltage. Higher input voltages yield higher maximum output current."
why? just because of the more input power with higher Vin?
the largest output current is 8.5A, so what's the largest input current of the module? is still 8.5A?
"Bear in mind that the maximum output current is limited by junction temperature, the relationship between the input and output voltage magnitude and other factors."
how can I design the current limit with the voltages not listed on the datasheet's graphs? like Vin=9V, Vout=10V, Iout=7.5A.
is there any formulas to calculate this precisely?
all the conditions I mentioned above regardless of the CTL, Rsense, etc.
The current is limited by the internal components ability to handle the current when operating in lower input voltages.
At lower input voltages more specifically when the converter is operating at boost mode (Higher Vout than Vin) the inductor would need to handle higher current peaks to maintain a certain output load compared when it is operating in buck mode (Higher Vin than Vout).

Sixty-four persons with SZ (mean age= 40.8, SD = 10.3 years) and 61 healthy controls (mean age=43.5, SD=11.2 years) completed the Hopkins Verbal Learning Test, BriefVisuospatial Memory Test, and brain magnetic resonance imaging. Voxel-based morphometry was used to quantify group differences in regional gray matter volume (GMV) and correlate regional GMV with memory test performance in persons with SZ. The SZ group performed worse than healthy controls on learning and delayed recall measures of both tests. Group differences were larger for verbal than visual learning and memory. Compared to healthy controls, patients with SZ showed reduced GMV in frontal, temporal and limbic lobes bilaterally, as well as the thalamus. Pearson correlations of GMV with cognitive performance revealed an unexpected pattern of hemispheric lateralization for verbal and visual memory, that learning and delayed recall did not correlate distinctly with frontal and temporal lobe volumes, and that most brain regions in which GMV correlated with cognitive performance differed from those that distinguished the two groups. Persons with SZ differ from healthy adults in both memory test performance and regional GMV. However, the minimal overlap between regions of reduced GMV that distinguish between groups and those that correlate with memory performance suggests that coarse neuroanatomic abnormalities in persons with SZ do not fully explain their impairment of learning and memory.

They hypothesized that the greater the level of commitment between two people in a relationship, the greater the chance that they would have some sort of relationship after the breakup.
The researchers assumed for the sake of analysis that commitment is a result of three things: satisfaction in the relationship, feeling that the alternatives to being in that relationship are less attractive than being in it, and having already invested in it. These three factors form what's known in the literature as the "Investment Model" of relationships. The researchers found that the more of these three factors participants claimed to feel before the split, the more likely those participants were to be close to their partner after a breakup. It's worth mentioning that the average amount of time that had passed between the breakup and the research collection was about four months.
Other older research has found that the more time couples spend together, the longer it takes them to move on, and the more likely they are to try to get back together.
The bottom line: it looks like there's a sunk cost effect at play; the more commitment that went in to a relationship, the more likely we are to hang on to it in some way, even after it ends. Whether or not that's a rational thing to do - well, that's an article for another day.

For most, love is no doubt a feeling, an emotional response to something we desire or like. It can be a football team, a car, a pizza, or a woman. But for Christians, this definition is not just inadequate, it is blasphemous. For us love is bound up with the character of Almighty God, especially in the supreme act of sending His only Begotten Son. All love must be boxed in by this definition. That means for us love is primarily sacrifice; a willingness to give up so others might have. Greater love as no man than this to lay down his life for his friends (John 15:13). But moderns love is about what we want and what we get. If we love this girl then we will gladly abandon wife and children for her. For the modern, greater love has no man than this, to get what he wants no matter who gets hurt. So love must be boxed in by God’s character. Here is my attempt to do that.

Michael Bloomberg’s’ failed gun control organizations Moms Demand and Everytown, claimed Virginia’s gun laws were to blame for the violence.
“The complications of such policies are on display today in Charlottesville as white supremacists openly carry loaded guns. Not only does this make the job of law enforcement more difficult by blurring the lines of lawful gun owners and those intent on doing harm, but it also drives intimidation and fear,” Everytown said in a statement.
Funny, since no guns were used in any crimes and the police were told to “stand down” by the left-wing mayor of Charlottesville, Wes Bellamy.
So, while the violence seemed to get out of control, the cops stood there and did nothing because that’s what they were told to do.
As hate crimes also appear to be on the rise, it remains far too easy for hateful people – even those convicted of certain hate crimes – to obtain guns. Under federal law, many hate crime convictions do not currently make someone ineligible for gun ownership,” the Everytown statement said.
“With public attention on what is happening in Charlottesville, it’s important to understand the troubling reality of open-carry and what happens when guns fall into hate-filled hands.

On perhaps no issue has the question of what can or cannot be debated been more sharply contested than that of transgenderism. How should society, and the law, look upon people who were born male but see themselves as female? Trying to answer that question has led to bitter confrontations between trans activists, determined to secure full rights for trans people, and “gender critical” feminists worried that the notion of what it is to be a woman is being transformed to the detriment of women’s rights.
In Britain, the government’s consultation on proposed changes to the Gender Recognition Act ended last month. At its heart was the question of whether trans people can decide for themselves what should be their legally defined gender.
For trans people, the freedom to define themselves is vital. To question, as many feminists do, whether a trans woman is “really a woman” is, activists insist, to threaten the individual’s identity. It does irreparable harm by subjecting trans people to mental trauma and giving succour to violent bigots. “I deeply resent the idea that my identity gets to be ‘debated’ in the first place,” wrote the American activist Jennifer Finney Boylan.

It also comes as news broke late Wednesday of the resignation of the forest preserve officer who was seen on the video seeming to ignore the woman’s calls for assistance.
Trybus is currently facing charges of misdemeanor assault and misdemeanor disorderly conduct, but on Wednesday, Cook County Commissioner Jesus “Chuy” Garcia, D-Chicago, released a statement calling on the Cook County state’s attorney to lodge stiffer charges.
“A charge for simple assault or disorderly conduct is not sufficient, this incident must be investigated and charged as a hate crime,” Garcia said in a statement.

But soon, writes Reuters, the annoyingly assertive Roman warriors will truly be a thing of the past. In a move aimed at protecting tourists, Rome has banned centurions.
At first glance, modern-day centurions have little in common with their ancient forebears. They are most often spotted near historically significant sites throughout Rome, pulling rickshaws or posing with tourists. Today, anyone with a costume can become a Roman centurion, but it was harder to gain the title in ancient Rome. Known for their elaborate ranks and political power, ancient centurions were military officers who enforced discipline among the greater army. Discipline isn't the strong suit of contemporary centurions, however, who are known for harassing and even attacking tourists.
Officials claim that it's necessary to rid Rome of centurions to protect visitors from such aggressive sales tactics, writes Reuters. The move comes in anticipation of the Jubilee of Mercy, a year-long Catholic event that is expected to bring millions of pilgrims to Rome.
But the Eternal City's historical impersonators won't go down without a fight. Centurions, many of whom hail from poorer areas of Rome, argue that the ban will cast them into Italy's growing ranks of unemployed workers. Reuters reports that one centurion even scaled the walls of the Colosseum to protest the order—a move that also raised questions about city-wide safety.

The Via Appia Antica, old Appian Way Road, was the major road of the ancient Roman Empire. It's now a regional park, Parco Regionale Dell'Appia Antica, and there are several catacombs to visit.
From Rome, take bus 118 or 218 to get to the catacombs of San Callisto, the largest and most impressive of the catacombs. From there you can walk or bike along the ancient road, lined with tombs and churches. A beautiful place for lunch on Via Appia Antica is the Cecilia Metella Restaurant, especially when it is nice and you can sit on the patio or pack a picnic. Sunday is the best day to go when much of the Appian Way is closed to traffic.
The ruins of the ancient Roman port of Ostia Antica are well worth a visit.

Why do many who come to Rome like Trastevere? The location is just across the river from the major archaeological monuments of Ancient Rome. The narrow, cobbled streets are loaded with charm and outside the major squares the area can be quite quiet at night. Trastevere seems like a small village (with a large percentage of people who eat out), yet you're smack in the historic center of Rome.
The popularity of Trastevere is magnified by the number of places to eat and drink. Our favorites are marked on the map.
Click or tap the map markers to find out more about these attractions. The map is zoomed in to take in the part of Trastevere that tourists generally inhabit.
Trastevere, a large district second in size to Monte, Rione I, takes up the left bank of the Tiber south of the Borgo (see a map of Rome's Neightborhoods). There are 7 bridges that access Trastevere from central Rome. Trastevere's northern section consists of the Gianicolo, or as we call it, Janiculum, a hill that features some of the best views of Rome.

These beggars—the legit and not-so-legit—raise a question for me that the Canaanite woman in Matthew raises for Jesus. Paul raises the same question by speaking the Word to the Gentiles in Romans.

I've never encountered this phrase before and can't find a definition online, though it is itself used in Wordsmyth's definition of "smirk".
Does anyone have a clear definition of the phrase?
"Knowing" (definition 2b, Merriam-Webster), as an adjective, means that the person so described has inside information - one can give a "knowing look", a "knowing smile", etc.
To be "offensively knowing" means to give the impression of knowing a person's guilty secrets, and taking advantage of that knowledge to assert a higher level of intimacy or social status than would otherwise be acceptable (or pleasant).
A man who knows that a woman is having an affair might become "offensively knowing" and take liberties with her that he otherwise wouldn't dare to; a waiter or cabdriver who knows that his customer is doing something illegal might become "offensively knowing" and demand a higher tip (or give worse service) than usual.
I would read it as that he took offensive after knowing this fact. It's a bit convoluted but I think the meaning is clear. Nothing wrong with an original coupling of words.

The saying that women are tough creatures to fathom applies to men as well. What makes a man fall in love can have no definite answer as the factors vary from person to person.

To make a man fall in love, you have to follow the rules of attraction. That does not mean you spend your whole time concentrating on your face and body. While men are attracted to physical beauty, that does not last long. The truth is that men look for something beyond physical features.

Often as performers, as artists who perform and reveal to an audience, we are misunderstood in that we are attention seekers. There is a huge difference between "I want attention" and "Please pay attention". These are two difference conversations.
This goes on to how we approach the work, the opportunity, the task at hand. Does our conversation move inward and say "what do I do to develop this fully and reveal it?" or does it deflect the self and say "if I do this who will notice me?"
There is an enormous difference between "I want to reveal the work/the character/the process through my talent" and "look at me! watch me! see me!".

The Mediation Service is being set up with support from the Kirby Laing Foundation who are funding initial costs to ensure the service meets the needs of those requesting help.
If you are dealing with tension and difference then you are probably entering into a place of conflict. If this is getting beyond your skill set and experience to deal with then you may need help. Mediation can take many forms, from two-party mediation through to large group reconciliation processes.
Please see below for details about how Bridge Builders might be able to help.
Our general approach We focus on helping people to address their hurts, identify key issues, build their own agreements for the future, and find an opening for God’s work of reconciliation.
This approach holds together problem-solving and healing – attending to practicalities but also acknowledging that conflicts grow from unmet needs and emotional tension. We call this approach conflict transformation.
If we are unable to lead the mediation ourselves, we will ask one of our Mediation Partners to take the lead, possibly working with one of our new graduates from the Mediating Interpersonal Conflicts course.

If flows like water, sometimes fast sometimes slow. Sometimes it eddies and looks like there’s no place to go. It can’t be stopped, for long, and it can’t be forced, for long. It just flows, whether we’re part of it or not.
Conversation is what ‘separates’ us from other living organisms. At least, our own technology of conversation does. It started with language, and after the awkward evolution of mass media, has blossomed with the adoption of the web.
But really, if we look a little deeper we can see conversation is what life is all about. Our bodies are bundles of conversation among physical processes. Our environment is an extraordinarily rich and dynamic web of conversations. Everything is conversation.
And so, in a way, I am really a set of conversations, a participant in many more, and an observer of ‘others’. But really, it’s all just conversation flowing.
Sometimes it’s nice to sit on the shore and watch it go. Sometimes it’s nice to get naked and dive in. Whatever I do, and however it happens, it’s nice to know it’s all a part of this great conversation we we call humanity.

It's tricky partly because it's not immediately obvious that it matters. During any given conversation, the participants are mostly concerned with what the people involved are saying, and won't usually stop to think about whether or not the forum itself gives others who might want to take part the opportunity to do so.
For example, a real-time forum like IRC is terrific for quick questions, for opportunistic synchronization of work, for reminding someone of something they promised to do, etc. But it's not a good forum for making decisions that affect the whole project, because the people who take part in a conversation in IRC are just whoever happened to be in the channel at that moment — it's very dependent on work schedules, time zones, etc. On the other hand, the development mailing list is a great place for making formal project-wide decisions, since every interested party will have an opportunity to see and respond to the relevant posts, even though it's not as well-suited to quick, real-time interactions as IRC is.
Another example comes up frequently in bug tracker usage, especially in the last few years as bug trackers have become so well integrated with email. Sometimes people will be drawn into a discussion in a bug ticket and because they simply see project-related emails coming in to their email client, they treat the discussion as though it's happening

So grab the chance to explain your business, or idea, in a way that is clear and compelling.
Sounds easy, yet this is where otherwise excellent entrepreneurs make a big mistake. They are not prepared and simply ramble on in every direction. Think about it, can you tell me about your concept in a way that I will really understand and allow me to be excited about joining you as a business partner or Investor?

Its 1986 edition says the following in its introduction to the solemnity of Christ the King: "It is vital for any organization to have capable leadership.... That is why we test candidates on their leadership capabilities ... and only if they are honest people do we elect them."
Knowing all controversies we have experienced with our leaders today, whether candidates for office, officials under investigation or elected leaders under indictment, this statement is rather humorous. The fact is that we are willing to choose leaders with very poor backgrounds. Sometimes we are surprised to find out about a politician&apos;s past, but sometimes we know about a questionable past, and we elect the individual anyway.
or business leaders? Occasionally, as it is today, the primary discussion should not be about leaders themselves. Our reflection should be about ourselves. Who are the people we allow to lead us and why do we make the choices we do? Whom do we allow to form us, shape us and guide us? On this solemnity of Christ the King we would do well to ponder to whom — or to what — we have entrusted our souls and why.

We do not know Judas’ vocation, but we do know that he betrayed Jesus (Matthew 10:4, 26:25, 27:3; Mark 14:10; Luke 22:48; John 6:71, 12:4, 13:2, 18:2, and 18:5). Thomas was the one who doubted Jesus (John 20:24-28). It is amazing how little we know about most of the disciples.
The message and the emphasis of the gospels was about Jesus Christ and not the apostles. Therefore, we know very little about them. What is even more interesting is that we know very little about Jesus’ childhood and youth. But that was the custom at the time of Jesus Christ. In those days, they judged the character of a man by the last few years of a man’s life and how he died. If he was a truly great man, they might record his birth. This is exactly what happened for Jesus. His birth, the last 3-4 years of His life, and His death were recorded. That is what the ancients would have wanted to know.

Even if one does not understand what the Bible says, it is good to have a basic faith that is willing to take whatever it says. That, of course, has led to many misunderstandings, but it is far better for a man to have faith in what he understands about the Bible, even if he misunderstands it, than for one to not even believe what he thinks the Bible says. The first one can be taught, and will do better when he learns better. The second one may be taught, but if he did not do what he thought the Bible taught in the first place, he is usually not willing to do what he learns anew.
Paul is a good illustration of the point. He misunderstood what God’s will was. But he was very much concerned about doing it. God can use a man like that, and use him mightily! But if Paul had not cared about these peculiar people whom he thought were blaspheming God, and cared enough about God’s will to try to get rid of them in accordance with what he thought was God’s will, God could scarcely have found any use for him if he had been dragged into the Kingdom.

If you heard a story about a young, handsome and quite marvellous man, who after a sudden fall from the top of the stairs ended up dead and was discovered to wear a mask, what would you think? Under the mask his real, old face was revealed, covered with awfulblisters. The ladies didn't know how to react. His death deprived them a love of their life, but also saved them from being foolish with anold man. They asked themselves why he had worn the mask but couldn't find the answer.
In the concept magazine of Livraison, this story was the beginning of an issue about hidden faces and secrets. What do we have to hide and how do we hide it? Or is the mask a way to show the world how we see ourselves?

Do you mistakenly believe you know your man well? Take my quick quiz to find out how well you do – or don't!
I'm frequently privy to the reasons why relationships fall apart, or at least witness them as they go through bumpy patches. A common complaint I hear is, "I thought I knew him," or "he's not the man I thought he was!"
Why do so many women come unstuck with this issue - thinking a man's one thing and then being surprised he isn't? What happens is we transfer our own emotions and beliefs onto our significant other. In believing that we know ourselves, we think we know them. This includes our likes and dislikes, and importantly, our relationship expectations, etc. We heap these things on to him when he may be thinking very differently. Such "transference" prevents us seeing the reality of who our partner really is.
We're all guilty of this to varying degrees and of course men do it too. However I think we women are more prone to this. You might think you know your partner but do you really? Answer the following questions honestly to find out.
7/ Do you get frustrated when you two argue?
C/ Think he's a "moody so-and-so"
You're not psychic but you understand and respect his differences. You don't jump to conclusions about what he may be thinking. Your relationships will be happier because you want to see his side of things.

Most of you reading this are married. Did you marry a Ladies Man, a Man's Man, or the man of your dreams? Hopefully, you married the man and while it is good to discern character and integrity, do you have him trapped in your dreamworld man. But what about the men?

The apostle Paul is still speaking about his spiritual experience. But commentators are divided as to whether he is speaking about his present experience, or his experience prior to his conversion. Is it Paul the Christian, or Saul the Pharisee speaking? Most Reformed commentators believe that Paul is speaking about his Christian experience. But there are a few such as J.

They ask, for example, how could Paul say that he is “sold under sin” (v. 14) if he is speaking of himself as a believer? Remember how Elijah condemned Ahab for “[selling himself] to work evil in the sight of the LORD” (1 Kgs 21:20)?

But Churchill still captures the neurosis, panic and sexual surreality that underlie Shawn's startling vision of New Yorkers at play.
The format is simple. Lewis and Annette are throwing a party high above the city. But their guests by-pass the usual chit-chat to reveal their fears, fantasies and weird predilections. Solitary Samantha repels a sexual boarder by announcing that she's drunk wine made from sperm. Cool Kristin likes to swathe herself and her sexual partner in a burning jelly. Meanwhile, businessman Tony launches matter-of-factly into a detailed account of his unassuageable lusts and Grant, a seemingly asexual therapist, casually describes his sadistic group experiments and acknowledges the universality of paedophiliac desire.
So what is Shawn telling us? His father was the New Yorker's most famous editor, and I often feel that, in his early plays, Shawn was trying to get behind that magazine's decorous formality and expose the narcissistic strangeness and sexual obsessiveness of the real New York.

We don't understand a word but the sound of French in song makes us weak at the elbows. Alison stalked the the lady in the stripey dress and demanded to buy all their CDs, we think it weirded her out a bit.
But the reason we were here was to see the headline act, Shawn's penultimate music idol, Laetitia Sadier, playing with her most amazing band, Laetitia Sadier Source Ensemble. It's a minor exaggeration to say that Shawn travelled from Sydney to Paris just for this gig - his only regret is being too shy to speak to Laetitica at the merch table. As Bobby says in The Sopranos - "Shyness, it's a curse".

But the event planner and caterer with Creative Edge Parties was enjoying a relaxing night with friends in the fall of 2011 when he spotted Shawn Lisle. "We were seated at the same table," he says. "Before we sat I remember saying to a friend, 'Who is that?!'" George started seeing Shawn, a graphic designer at Intermix, regularly while meeting with friends. The pair became official in the winter of 2012, and George popped the question five years later.
The Manhattan-based duo jetted off to Palm Springs, California, for a chic destination wedding on March 25, 2017. Close family and friends attended the intimate celebration, including Shawn's relatives from Seattle and George's family from upstate New York. Mid-century modern touches, desert tones, ideal weather, and classic disco music created an unforgettable night at the Dinah Shore Palm Springs Estate (432 Hermosa) for the grooms and their 50 guests.
George and Shawn printed used vintage Palm Springs postcards as their save-the-dates. Shawn then created the invitations to resemble a fashion show invite, complete with tasteful nods to the ceremony aesthetic. A palm tree motif was printed on metallic paper as a nod to some of the day's own glimmering elements. The front of the invite, which featured white ink on black matte paper, also showcased the wedding's clean and modern vibe.

My music is not about religion in any way, shape, or form, but that of a hard road that takes us into the heart of a man named Jesus, that has impacted this world (and me) more than any other man in the face of history.

Shawn Lane had the best combination of incredible speed and beautiful, melodic phrasing I've ever heard. I feel very lucky to have known and taken lessons from him. Some of my fondest memories in the late 80's and early 90's were spent in his studio, which was just a back bedroom in his Grandmother's house. He tracked some magic in that small room! When I first met him he was playing a Holmes Mississippi Bluesmaster amp, Westbury tube overdrive, and a couple of Boss pedals. His cabinet was mic'd up in the closet and pedals were on the floor in front of his mixer. I distinctly remember going over to Shawn's house right after he'd gotten his Gjika preamp and power amp. His Holmes rig sounded fantastic, but nowhere near as good as the Gjika. I'd never heard an amp like Gjika and have heard countless amps since then but to this day have not heard another like it.
If you are looking at this, I will assume you know exactly what it is and how amazing this amp is. If not, just listen to Shawn's guitar tone on "Grey Pianos Flying" from the Powers Of Ten album or his cover of Jimi Hendrix's "Peace In Mississippi" which he recorded in the early 90's but released later on The Tri-Tone Fascination. You'll get a good sense of what this amp can do.

In case you don't remember (after all, it was over three years ago), the whole thing went down when Shawn posted a screenshot of a group text between himself, Jacob, and a few other celebs including Jack Gilinksy and Aaron Carpenter. It turns out that Jacob's number was visible in the chat, making it pretty tempting for all of Shawn's fans to send the musician a text themselves.
When he realized his mistake, Shawn deleted the tweet and acknowledged his error, writing: "Yea I leaked his number, it was a stupid accident. Sorry, I don't need to be told I'm stupid." For the record, no one is perfect, and this kind of thing could happen to anyone — celebrity or not. But it's always a good idea to double check anything you post on the internet, as Shawn learned the hard way.
Fortunately, Jacob himself wasn't too upset — and he's still laughing about it three years later. Jacob took to Twitter yesterday (August 8) to wish Shawn a happy birthday and playfully remind him of his blunder in the process. "Happy birthday to one of the most genuine and talented people out there, this will never fail to make me laugh," Jacob wrote, quoting Shawn's 2014 tweet with the addition of several laughing-crying emojis.

Shawn: Yeah. My leg still hurts from the last incident.

Norman: Hey, he's just a playful little beast.

Shawn: Right.

Norman: Hey, he likes to bark a little, and his bark is worse than his bite.

Shawn: Oh yeah.

Norman: Just feed him a can of dog food a day, and make sure he has plenty of water in his dish. [Oh] And then, take him for a walk around the block.

Shawn: Well, how about if I just throw a Frisbee over the fence to give him some exercise? Wouldn't that work?

Norman: Ah, and then, he likes to watch the 3:00 soap opera on Channel 4 [What?] ... and brush his teeth after you give you some doggie treats around 4:00.

Shawn: Man, you really pamper your dog.

Norman: And, then brush his fur for about twenty minutes. He tends to shed this time of year. [Ah, what?] And then scratch him around the ears. Otherwise, he feels neglected.

Shawn: Is that it?

Norman: Well, and then there's Claws.

Shawn: Claws? Who's Claws.

Norman: Oh, he's the cat we adopted from the animal shelter, but he's a little temperamental.

Shawn: What do you mean "temperamental"?

Norman: Well, he has mood swings [Mood swings?], but he's been doing better since he's been going to the animal therapist.

Shawn: A therapist?

Norman: So, be sure to feed him a half cup of cat food two times a day [What? A therapist ...], and don't forget to put out (on) some soft classical music during his nap time at 2:40 p.m. But don't let him out of the house because he might run away and chase the neighbor's dog.

Shawn: You have some high-maintenance animals.

Norman: Not really. And, don't forget to change the cat litter daily, or he might have an accident on the carpet. [Oh, great.] And finally, there's Buttercup.

Shawn: Buttercup? Who's Buttercu ...? I'm afraid to ask.

Commonly referred to as the Old Siamese cats they were known as Wichien-Maat in Thailand which means “moon diamond” or “diamonds and gold”. There is some controversy over the true nature of the Thai cat.
The controversy surrounding the Thai cat is that they are not a pure breed. Many consider them to be the old Siamese. The changes between the Modern Western Siamese and the new Thai cat took place, when the British brought the Thai cat to the UK with the expressed purpose of breeding a more appealing cat strictly for the purpose of showing.
This creates more of dilemma to an already difficult situation. In 2007, the Thai cat breed was created and appeared under the, “New Breed,” category.

Shape - The Balinese cat has a medium-sized frame and long, thin limbs. The paws are relatively small when compared to the rest of the body. Despite their thinness, the Balinese cat has well-defined muscles, and is surprisingly heavy when lifted. The head of a Balinese cat is wedge shaped, with a long neck and large ears.
The eyes - The eyes of a Balinese cat are deep blue and slightly slanted inward. They should be bright and clear, and have the same color as a sapphire. If the cat's eyes are not blue, then it is not a full Balinese, but may be a cross.
Fur - The Balinese cat should have silky soft fur that is slightly longer than your average short-haired cat. In fact, it is often classified as a medium-haired cat. This cat has only one layer of fur, not two, and it clings very closely to the body. The fur of a Balinese tends to be very glossy.

In arguments with such people when you defend the reality of real objective empirical truths, you will frequently find such people immediately appealing to various weird phenomena in quantum mechanics to defend themselves. “Doesn’t quantum mechanics prove that there is no objective truth?,” they might say.
The use (or, rather, abuse) of quantum theory in this manner is deeply mistaken and fallacious, however, for the simple reason that what is true for, and actually does happen in, the infinitesimally small world of quantum mechanics need not be true at all for large objects in the macroscopic world in which human beings live. Let us take one example: abuse of quantum mechanics in attempts to dismiss the laws of logic.
For example, in the Schrödinger’s cat thought experiment, a cat is imagined as being both alive and dead simultaneously, because it is imagined as being in a state of quantum superposition.
Now, if it were true that a cat could naturally be in such a state, wouldn’t this disprove the Law of Noncontradiction, the law of logic that one cannot assert as true at the same time (1) a proposition p and (2) its negation (¬p) (or, that is to say, one cannot assert p ∧ ¬p without fatal self-contradiction)?

No reason people have to choose one over the other.
Pet owners tend to be passionate about the animals they share their homes and lives with, and that's natural. Our pets become part of our families over time. When it comes to dogs and cats, many pet owners develop strong opinions about which make better companions, and also about why one is "better" than the other. Some people's opinions on the matter are so extreme that the debates between "dog people" and "cat people" can get ugly and mean spirited at times. Some who self-identify as "cat people" will argue that dogs are dirty, needy creatures that aren't as smart as cats. Some "dog people" seem to feel cats are indifferent and unfriendly, and not as engaging as their canine companions. Both sides of this debate occasionally project these tendencies onto the humans they're arguing with, promoting the idea that people who prefer dogs are dumber than people who prefer cats, for instance. On the other side, we have a mean societal stereotype about an unmarried woman beyond a certain age being a "crazy cat lady." I feel that the type of person who really hates either cats or dogs, and who believes his choice is superior, is proving more about his own screwed up personality than pointing to any hard evidence about the nature of these animals.

This graphic should be a summary of our projects. When I initially started this assignment, I felt that the overall theme of my problem was how to effectively share news via photos. Part of that efficacy is not only the photo itself, but the commentary that accompanies it. It can be hard sometimes to adopt out a cat that, while we know is a wonderful cat, may not show as well to potential adopters. I’ve mentioned this several times with Sarah, Tinsel, and Tinker and Bell.
So, I had Visual Precis part one. I used Sarah as my reference kitty, because I’ve known her her whole life, all 9 months of it. The tidbits that I included in my precis are all true. They don’t exactly conflict with each other, and they’re all true, but they can affect how a potential volunteer or adopter may feel about interacting with that organization.
I know the assignment is to be a visual representation, yet I felt that I couldn’t not include text. That might actually be a point of the exercise; we’re very reliant on text to tell a story as a society. However, my point is that how we communicate a message with word choice is important.

There are actually many different issues that you need to know about in regards to cat health, and one of the first is worms. Worms are one of the most common ailments in cats, and even if your cat does not have them yet, you want to use preventive measures so that you can keep them from getting worms as best you can.
This means going to your veterinarian and asking about the different medications that you can get which will prevent your cat from getting worms, and you usually have to give this medication to your cat once or twice a week.
Another important issue in regards to cat health is that of their diet, and although it may seem as though all cats are the same and that thus the issue of diet is not all that important, you should know that it really is.
In fact, each different breed of cat has their own recommended diet, and this is important because this will affect their weight and thus their health overall.
If you are unsure of what diet you should be giving to your cat, then again you should make sure to make an appointment with your veterinarian so that you can discuss with them what type of food

Retrieved Text: Cat memory works in much the same way as memory in any animal. Past experiences or events can be stored in the neural connections that make up an animal's brain. When information is perceived by the animal through the use of the sensory organs, electrical signals are transmitted via the nerves to the brain, allowing the animal to incorporate the information in calculating actions. Once encoded into the brain, this information can be stored in the neurons that make up the brain. The exact mechanism by which specific memories are stored in the brain is not yet known, but there are some widely accepted theories.
The first theory as to how memories are stored in the brain of a cat is that specific neurons are assigned to specific memories, which would mean that there is one cell in your cat's brain that activates when the cat sees you, and another cell that activates when the cat sees its food bowl. In fact, if the specific neuron theory holds true, your cat not only has a cell specifically adjusted to respond to his food bowl, but another cell for each other bowl the cat has ever seen.
This theory has not been conclusively disproven, but many experts consider it a little simplistic. Some people point to the fact that cats can still form new memories after they stop forming new neurons as evidence against the specific neuron theory, but this inconsistency can possibly be explained if neurons could change the stimulus that they respond to, or respond to multiple

Older cats can find trips to the cattery stressful and upsetting, so it's important to take steps to make sure your kitty is as safe and comfortable as possible. Choose a cattery that's licensed and adheres to local regulations, and visit beforehand if you can - this will give you the best idea of whether or not it's right for your cat.
Australia is a nation of pet lovers, with cats considered to be a true member of the family by most. While the feline friend can often be front and centre in daily activities at home, there are times throughout the year when you need to take a break from them. Human beings need pampering as well and this frequently calls for a long holiday away to recharge. Quite a conundrum for cat owners, who may not know where to start when it comes to boarding their pets.
How Do Cats Feel About Spending Time In The Cattery?
Any cat owner who has gone away for the weekend, taken a holiday or needed to attend a residential business trip has probably, at some point, considered a cattery. Cats are home-loving creatures, though, and time in an unfamiliar environment can stress them out. So how do they really feel about it, and what can you do to help the experience go more smoothly for them? The main thing your cat feels is a sense of insecurity from being cut adrift from its territory.

It didn’t take me too long to convince Mark we needed Pippa in our lives, so here are my arguments in case you or your significant other need a little convincing you need to adopt a cat.
They make the cutest sounds. Their purrs are just the most satisfying sound ever. And have you seen their little paws?
Okay, but that was the obvious one, of course. If that alone is not enough to convince you, read on.
They’re perfectly capable of entertaining themselves. Of course, all pets do require some attention. Especially when you adopt a kitten, you need to spend (a lot of) time with them. In the first weeks, you can’t leave them alone for too long. However, a grown cat can stay home alone for a while. Which makes a cat the perfect pet for workaholics and people who like to go out.
And even though it is an option to walk your cat, you don’t have to! No late night walks through darkness and rain, but cuddling on the couch, snuggled up under a blanket!
Of course, not every cat, especially when you choose to adopt from a shelter, loves to cuddle (right away). Some need a little time. However, most cats love to cuddle and take naps in your lap. They’re also a perfect replacement for your hot

When it comes to "My Cat from Hell," I'm not sure "best" is the word I would use to describe the reality show, but boy oh boy is it something to behold. CBSPhilly reported Thursday that cats from two local animal shelters will be given "pawsitivity" training by the show's host, Jackson Galaxy, whose name is as outlandish and unbelievable as the show itself.
Two Philadelphia animal rescue groups have been chosen to take part in a special positive-reinforcement training program aimed at making shelter cats more adoptable.

The magpie is not afraid of the fox. Every time the fox starts making a move towards the magpie, the magpie lets the cub get within a few feet and then flaps off a little way.

Eventually the fox gives up and lies down on the lawn – and at that point the magpie circles round behind the fox and starts pecking his tail (or remarkably close to it). This magpie is, essentially, teasing the fox.
At this point, Lardy Cat saunters out of the cat flap (Small Cat had been watching the proceedings with what I suspect was an air of feline bemusement). The fox backs off a bit — thinking the cat’s after him — but the cat has eyes only for the magpie.

Cats and humans may not look much alike, but remember, both are mammals. Therefore, there are a number of diseases, disorders, and other medical conditions found in humans that are also found in cats. One such disease is diabetes. If you believe that your cat may have diabetes, it is important to talk to your cat's vet as soon as possible so that your cat can get the right medical treatment needed.
There are two types of diabetes in cats, just like in humans. Type 1 diabetes is caused by the insufficient production of insulin in the cat's body. Type 2 diabetes, on the other hand, is when a cat develops an intolerance for handling the insulin. In both cases, diabetes can develop in cats of any age, but it is more common for cats that are old, male, or obese. There is what is known as secondary diabetes as well, in which a drug or disease causes diabetes, sometimes forever and sometimes for a certain period of time.
When caring for your cat, there are symptoms you can see that point to your cat having diabetes. These symptoms include excess thirst, vomiting, loss of appetite, weakness, loss of weight, breathing abnormalities, and unhealthy skin and coat. Your vet can then test your cat's blood sugar levels and urine sugar levels. Both tests are needed, as temporary blood sugar levels may be high in cats that are stressed or nervous.

By letting a loose cat and an off-leash dog meet each other in an open room for the first time, you are probably setting up both animals to fail. Instead, plan ahead and take your time.
If you’re thinking of getting a cat for your dog or a dog for your cat, it’s important to consider both animals’ personalities. It may be helpful to look for a companion that has already been exposed to the other species in the past.
If a dog attempts to aggressively chase, pin, pick up or otherwise “manhandle” any cat, it is best to not even consider getting a cat — or at least to proceed with caution. Additionally, a dog who growls, lunges at or obsessively barks at a cat would probably do best in a cat-free environment. Likewise, a cat who growls, swats at, runs from or hides from dogs would probably prefer to not live with a dog.
If a dog loves chasing things, then a fearful, shy cat who runs away probably wouldn’t be the best choice, as it could trigger the dog to chase. Similarly, an energetic cat who runs and pounces would fall into this same category. A better match here would be a calm, confident cat who will not run (in fear or play).
If a dog plays roughly, it is best to avoid kittens or elderly cats who can easily be hurt.

Firstly, in the network, this color is often called "Scottish chinchilla", which is not entirely true: it is correct to speak simply "chinchilla", since this color is also found in other breeds, not only Scottish cats.
Secondly, the chinchilla in the usual sense now is any cat of a silver shaded color. This is also not true. The true "chinchilla" is a cat of color ns 12, whose tip of each covering hair is colored in the main color only for 1/8 of the length of the hair.
Thirdly, often the true chinchilla is confused with another color - ns 11. Representatives of this color have hair tips, painted in the main color for 1/3 of the length of the hair. Ie the painted tips are much longer. Animals of this color look much darker, their color is brighter, while the chinchillas have a white peroberative undercoat. This color is correctly called "shaded", not "chinchilla".

The unusual cross became popular among breeders in the late 1990s and The International Cat Association (TICA) accepted the cat as a new registered breed in 2001 and as a ‘championship breed’ in 2012. Savannah is an extraordinary breed with exotic look of wild cat but personality and care of a domestic cat.
In April 1986, Judee Frank crossbred a male Serval, belonging to Suzi Woods, with a domestic Siamese cat to produce the first Savannah. After a decade, in 1996, Patrick Kelley and Joyce Sroufe wrote the original version of the Savannah breed standard and presented it to the board of TICA. In 2001, the board accepted the breed for registration.
The development of the breed has not been without its growing pains. One of the complications of crossing two different species was that males for the first several generations bred away from the Serval were sterile, so it took many years before breeders were able to produce fertile males. Once this happened, the ability to create a cat who looked more and more like a Serval became exponentially easier.
When the breed first started out it was very difficult to keep much of the Serval look because of all the outcrosses that were required until fertile males finally became available. Today, one can see fourth, fifth, sixth, and even more remote generations removed from the Serval who are able to rival the beauty and exotic looks of the early generation
