Khan was associated as a brand when he had advertised for Campa Cola,[120] Limca Soft drink,[121] Hero Honda bikes[122] and Double Bull shirts[123] well before he entered the film Industry. Even after he became a superstar, he never showed interest in promoting himself as a brand, but he was signed for Thums Up in 2002 and continued until its contract was over. Later Akshay Kumar replaced Khan. Later he was the brand ambassador of the soft drink Mountain Dew with whom he ended the contract in December 2010,[124] and now he is once again promoting Thums Up. [125][126] He has also become the brand ambassador for the travel website, Yatra.com, which also made him a shareholder. [127] He is also the face of the History Channel and the new brand ambassador for Suzuki motorcycles,[128] Previously he endorsed Red Tape Shoes,[129] and now he is endorsing Relaxo Hawaii. [130] Khan is also the brand ambassador of the detergent brand Wheel. [131] He has also appeared for Chlormint, a brand of gum, with his brother Sohail Khan. The actor has also done a jewellery brand, Sangini with Kareena Kapoor. [132] Apart from innerwear brand Dixcy Scott and tablet BlackBerry Playbook, Britannia' s Tiger biscuits is the latest endorsement of Salman. [133] He is also the face of Ranbaxy' s Revital, replacing Yuvraj Singh. [134] Apart from these brands, he also has Rotomac Pen and SF Sonic Batteries endorsements. [135] Now Khan has been roped in as the brand ambassador of Dubai-based fashion label Splash,[136] and has been also signed as the brand ambassador for Astral Poly Technik Ltd, the leading manufacturers of plumbing and drainage systems in the country. [137] Khan is also the brand ambassador of civic body Bombay Municipal Corporation's (BMC) drive against open defecation in Mumbai,[138] and has been also signed by the Security and Surveillance brand, CP PLUS as their CCTV ambassador. [139] Khan is now the second Ambassador along with Amitabh Bachchan for ‘Emami Healthy & Tasty’, ‘Himani Best Choice’ and ‘Rasoi’, apart from ‘Bake Magic’. [140]
that worries me... it really confuses me; am i just hanging around the wrong people? do i cause something in people to suddenly turn violent and absurd and senseless? do i just draw people to me who have these inclinations, somewhere hidden down inside? and if so, what do i do to stop it? what do i possibly change to stop something so bizarre? it's like, i can know a person for a couple hours or a couple weeks, and one night they're suddenly throwing bottles at a person or full-on chasing a stranger around threatening to kill them... how does a person loose it so completelly? is it just the alchahol? how can alchohol distrort a person so badly? does a person have to already be distorted somehow, for alchohol to do that to them? or other drugs? and then at times they don't remember it afterwards.. or can't understand how that overcame them, or are apologizing profusely... i can't understand why that happens either, but it means i can't really trust them anymore... right? that i can't really feel ok being around them... right? it's all so perplexing... so troubling...

We never liked the concept of UDIDs since the beginning indeed. Really bad decision from Apple. fishy thingie. so the big question: why exposing this personal data? well we have learnt it seems quite clear nobody pays attention if you just come and say 'hey, FBI is using your device details and info and who the fuck knows what the hell are they experimenting with that', well sorry, but nobody will care. FBI will, as usual, deny or ignore this uncomfortable thingie and everybody will forget the whole thing at amazing speed. so next option, we could have released mail and a very small extract of the data. some people would eventually pick up the issue but well, lets be honest, that will be ephemeral too.
Already somewhat lanky as a 205-pound competitor, the 6-foot-3 Hamman may now make full use of his frame in his new division.Standing before him at UFC 140 is Cyprus native Constantinos Philippou , who enters the cage after squeaking by Jorge Rivera in August. His light heavyweight aspirations now likely exhausted, can Hamman take care of business and make a move toward middleweight relevance?

Thanks for the support guys. Sorry guys, no meltdown in progress. I'm fine, and honestly I'm perfectly content with what I was able to accomplish playing T:A. I wasn't asked to join new merger, I can only imagine because a significant portion of my team was very embarrassed about our comms being streamed. (The video everyone was laughing at). We had a big fight about it, and I basically told everyone who was freaking out if they didn't want the community making fun of their comms, they should probably have better comms and stop freaking out like **ing asperg patients. I told a few players that because they were having nervous breakdowns over the comms being streamed that I lost respect for them individually, because quite frankly I felt like they were being little ***es about it. I was in the wrong, I admit that, but it wasn't intentional and the reactions were just overboard for me. I could tell there wasn't any coming back from it, and I'm fine with that.It was a good ride while it lasted, but lets be realistic here T:A is going nowhere, so being on a dominant team simply to secure easy money isn't much of a realistic goal anymore. I may end up joining another team, because I do still moderately enjoy the game, but I may end up just walking away.Either way, the blow isn't as huge to me as some of you probably think it was. If I was ditched for consistently horrible performances that's one thing, but several people didn't want to play with me anymore because we just didn't get a long and that is all there is to it. Fire was correct, we have been fighting pretty regularly over the last month, even a win at times felt like a loss. It wasn't very fun. Anyone calling "zoid" is just taking the convenient opportunity to lash out and troll me, but I assure you it had nothing to do with my ability. Even just general communication was fine, I'm not really that hard to get along with in normal scenarios, it's not like I'm Darkstrand or something.To the defense of our team, that stream wasn't a proper representation of how we normally act or of our actual ability, in fighting had really torn us apart at that point, and a number of other issues that weren't related to the stream at all.
In southern France, more than 20 billion dollars are being spent on trying to make a first-of-its-kind nuclear reactor, a special steel cauldron where top scientists from countries including India hope to generate clean nuclear energy by fusing atoms, a process similar to what happens on the sun.This is till date world's largest scientific project ever to be undertaken. The reactor will weigh about 23,000 tons - as much as three Eiffel Towers. Some 80,000 kilometres of special super conducting wires will be used.The International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) brings together India, China, South Korea, USA, Japan, Russia and the European Union as scientists see if they can jointly harness the power of the Sun by literally confining it in a steel bottle. The head of ITER, Dr. Osamu Motojima, points out that together these entities "represent half the world's population and account for two-third of the global economic might. "Nuclear plants today generate power by splitting the atoms and in doing so they produce large quantities of radioactive waste that can be dangerous for hundreds of years and has to be handled with extreme care. In contrast, 'fusion energy' generates power by joining two atoms into one; the usual raw material is hydrogen; and the waste generated will largely be either helium, a benign noble gas, or water.That's why fusion energy is sometimes referred to as 'evergreen atomic energy'. According to Dr. Ravi Grover, head of the Indian delegation at ITER, 'fusion is inherently safe, there is no danger of an uncontrolled chain reaction and fears of a nuclear explosion are negligible, producing almost no long lived radioactive waste'.Within the massive steel frame, gas will be heated to over 150 million degrees and it will be confined to a limited space. Using giant magnets, some atoms will then be forced to fuse together releasing huge amounts of heat which can then be directed to run turbines to generate electricity.
Soviet Union In the aftermath of the 1917 Revolution, the Soviet Union went through a period of very informal divorces that could be obtained just by one spouse announcing the divorce. Moscow reported 5,000 divorce petitions in the first few months after the change. The rules for marriage and divorce were relaxed even further after 1926, when the divorced spouse was sometimes notified by letter (or postcard). Mass confusion reportedly ensued over who was married or divorced - and may not have been helped by the slow and inefficient postal service. During Stalin's regime, the informal family law was dramatically revoked. Divorce became difficult and expensive to obtain until the divorce law was again liberalized after 1968 following Stalin's death. Spain In 1981 the government of Spain legalized divorce. United States In 1701 the state of Maryland in the United States declared divorce legal. In 1949-50, South Carolina declared divorce legal. In 1970 the state of Alabama in the United States legalized the no-fault divorce.

This will train your body to tap stored fat and will improve your physiology for alpine climbing. Additionally, this type of training helps numb the mind to the monkish aspects of alpine climbing.The best form of intervals for the alpinist are hill repeats. This work out can easily be duplicated on a gym stair stepper. Begin warming up by running easily for 15 minutes. Run steeply uphill for 90 seconds as fast as possible. Jog back down hill (or re-set stair stepper) for 3 1/2 minutes to recover. Repeat 6 - 9 times. Warm down by running easily for 15 minutes. : One to two hour run/bike/hike at an elevated heart rate. You should be pushing hard the entire workout and not be able to hold a conversation.The goals for the resistance workouts are to improve core strength and work the antagonist muscle groups that climbing does not directly work, as well as targeting muscle groups directly involved in climbing. Include exercises that engage the core as well as working the primary groups. E.g. overhead dumbbell press or dumbbell bench press while sitting/lying on an exercise ball will cause the muscles balancing the core to fire.Generally do three sets of each exercise for 10-12 repetitions, working to near failure. Upper body and core can be worked three times a week, legs can be worked fewer because of the running/biking/hiking you are already doing. : squats, lunges, wall sit for time with dumbbells: Planks, ball crunches, hanging-twisting knee lifts: Pull ups, dips, push-ups, bent over dumbbell row, dumbbell overhead press, dumbbell bench pressAs the body weight exercises become too easy add time (planks, wall sits) or increased resistance. For pushups elevate your feet. For pull ups hang weight from your climbing harness.The indoor climbing gym can be a welcome distraction from the training regimen as well as being a great way to work some of the climbing specific muscles. Some gyms allow users to practice dry-tooling and some even have artificial ice to climb. These gyms become an attractive option as winter approaches and can duplicate some of the technical aspects of alpine climbing.Many climbers favor Crossfit for resistance work, but beware the hype. You still need to train long to climb long. "There ain't nothing wrong with being a little cold now and then, and nothing wrong with being a little wet. But there's a whole lot wrong with being cold AND wet!
The third Vedanga, Niruktam, describes certain fundamental root words used in the Vedas. Classification of words into groups of synonyms is an example. For instance, approximately a hundred and twenty synonyms for water are given in Niruktam. The fourth Vedanga, Chandas, describes the formation of sentences in metrical form. Unlike English which used a very limited number of metres (basically four), Sanskrit offers about two dozen Vedic metres and innumerable conventional metres. The remaining two Vedangas, Kalpa and Jyothisha deal with space and time. The letters of Sanskrit Sanskrit comprises fifty one letters or aksharas. In other languages, we refer to the letters of the alphabet of the language. We know that the word alphabet is derived from the names of the first two letters of Greek. The term alphabet has no other meaning except to denote the set of letters in the language. In contrast, the word "akshara" in Sanskrit denotes something fundamental and significant. One of the direct meanings of the word is that it denotes the set of letters of Sanskrit from the first to the last. The word also means that the sound of the letter does not ever get destroyed and thus signifies the eternal quality of the sound of the letters. The consequence of this meaning is that the sound of a word is essentially the sounds of the aksharas in the word, a concept which will help simplify text to speech applications with computers. There are two aspects of non destruction in the above explanation. The first one refers to the phonetic characteristics of the language, i.e., in any word, the aksharas retain their sound. The second aspect of non destruction, amazingly, is that the aksharas retain their individual meanings as well! To give an example, the word "guru" consisting of the aksharas "gu" and "ru" stands for a teacher- one who dispels darkness (ignorance) of the the mind (person). "gu" means darkness and "ru" means the act of removal. Now, aren't we beginning to see something very interesting? The popular Sanskrit language is based on root syllables and words. Unlike the other languages of the world, every word in Sanskrit is derived from a root. It is a well accepted fact that all Indo-European languages have a common origin.
I ended up using a simple 3 layer FCN that gave a 95.7% accuracy with Inception vectors and using dot product for a merge strategy. Not quite as good as the XGBoost classifier, but quite close.Finally, I decided to merge the two approaches. For the vectorization, I chose a pre-trained Inception network with its classification head removed. Input to this network would be images, and I would use the Keras ImageDataGenerator to augment my dataset, using the mechanism I described in my previous post . I decided to keep all the pre-trained weights fixed. For the classification head, I decided to start with the FCN I trained in the previous step and fine tune its weights during training. The code for that is in the 08-holidays-siamese-finetune notebook Unfortunately, this did not give me the stellar results I was hoping for, my best result was about 88% accuracy in similarity prediction. In retrospect, it may make sense to experiment with a simpler pre-trained model such as VGG and fine tune some of the later layer weights instead of keeping them all frozen. There is also a possibility that my final network is not getting the benefits of a fine tuned model from the previous steps. One symptom is that the accuracy after the first epoch is only around 0.6 - I would have expected it to be higher with a well trained model. In another project where a similar thing happened, a colleague discovered that I was doing extra normalization with ImageDataGenerator that I hadn't been doing with the vectorization step - this doesn't seem to be the case here though.Overall, I got the best results from the transfer learning approach, with Inception vectors, dot product merge strategy and XGBoost classifier. Nice thing about transfer learning is that it is relatively cheap in terms of resources compared to the fine tuning or even the from-scratch training approach. While XGBoost does take some time to train, you can do the whole thing on your laptop. This is also true if you replace the XGBoost classifier with an FCN. You can also do inline Image Augmentation (i.e, without augmenting and saving) using the Keras ImageDataGenerator if you use the random_transform call.
The fact that I could take my dog for a run with the Walky Dog successfully, only minutes after hooking her up to it says a great deal about the stability and safety of the product. I was totally amazed. You need to go on short rides until you get used to how much and when your dog is likely to pull and be on guard for that, but once you understand the vigilance required you will be set to go. I felt very much in control, and I could tell she enjoyed the kind of exercise she was getting. You need to be prepared for possible distractions. I feel I must remain vigilant at all times and make sure I am sharing this exercise experience with my dog and not just riding mindlessly along.Namaste, Tiffany""I wanted to drop you a line and say i received my order today . I attached the pole to the bike seat in like 3 min and hooked my dog to it. I walked him once down the street jumped on and started peddling away. Wow the dog followed along like he was made to do it. I just found this dog about a week ago a 300 dollar trip to the vet and several baths later and he is good as new. This is a full grown German Shepard with absolutely no training what soever. he does not even walk on a leash. but this product works . I am so impressed i had to email you and thank you for a great product. I live in Arlington Texas if anyone ever wants to see this thing in action have them contact me and i would be happy to let them check it out. thank you for a great product that really does what is says it does.Steve""the WalkyDog did great for a 2.5 mile road jaunt from trail end to trail head for 2 dogs. Jane's owner forgot her leash so I used JD's short lead in conjunction with the WalkyDog. Worked perfectly. I was leary that it'd spin the leash on the seatpost with 2 dogs pulling, but it didn't budge. Amazing.Several active dog friends were excited about both products. Hopefully word will spread.Best,Thad""Hi Scott!Just wanted to say a big thanks for sending me the WalkyDog. I just got it the day before yesterday....tried it yesterday afternoon. Works great! Thanks so very much!
Articles ‎ > ‎ 2011-2012 Report on 150 RPG Crowdfunding Projects Part 1: The Big Picture This survey looks at 150 crowdfunding projects from websites such as Kickstarter and Indiegogo that focus on role playing game related material. The bulk of the projects were found through a forum thread on RPG.net, though a few came from other sources on the internet. They cover a time period from April 2011 to April 2012. Why do a survey of RPG related material? There is a growing body of excellent advice on how to run crowdfunding drives, however the advice is looking at the entire catalog of material on places like Kickstarter. The average numbers cited in these existing articles and blog posts draw on too many different categories that are unrelated to the role playing games hobby. Performing a survey of projects that focus on the RPG market gives more clarity on how this particular funding niche behaves. As an example, the Kickstarter website cites that the average pledge is around $70, but for this survey the average backing was $46.51. That difference, among others, is important for RPG authors who are planning their crowdfunding campaign. Broad Overview of Survey Total Backers 16,763 Total Goals $646,712.00 Total Raised $834,920.00 (+29% more than goals) Total Updates 1476 (9.84 per project) Total Videos 108 (72%) Total Images 76 (51%) Total Industry 78 (52%) Total FAQs 60 (40%) Average raised per Backer $46.51 Definitions Backers: The total number of backings for the project. Goal: The funding goal for the project. Raised: The amount of funding raised for the project. Updates: The number of updates that the author gave for the project. Video: The project had a video as part of the presentation. Image: The project either had a main image as part of the video, and/or had additional images attached to the project Industry: This represents projects which denote some indication that the authors of the project have some established connection to the RPG publishing industry, either with a large publisher, or who have a previously established catalog of material that they sell in the market. This survey factor was much more subjective in gathering data. FAQ: The project had a FAQ attached to it.
If you believe in freedom, justice and equality for ALL people regardless of race, gender, ethnicity, culture or class, then there are real opportunities for you to play a part. The BDS movement is growing internationally as more people become informed and choose to participate. Just by staying informed, by reading and sharing information, we are able to balance the control of the media that has for too long skewed this situation into one of seemingly epic proportions. In actual fact, it is very simple, and can be dealt with in any number of ways, starting with awareness and education and a willingness to act.Don’t believe that you have no power to change a situation. The only way to defeat paralysis is to move, and whether you are twitching a finger or punching a fist, that movement is breaking that paralysis. More than ever, from the Occupy Movement to the Arab Spring to Wikileaks, people are taking the power back. When it comes to human rights, a victory for one is a victory for all.RESPECT to you for this interview, and to all of you who took the time to read it.Neil CoppenPlaywright, Director083 781 14589
This passage caused a lot of interest and speculation, but for nine years, from 2005-2014, it appeared to be the last update we would have to work with. The specific passage cited from this entry is “the appetite of nothing expands over the world”, but in its wider context it shows a bigger picture. During those years, that passage was applied to everything from the Protein Delicacies scandal to Jamyl Sarum and The Other to the Seyllin Incident and the birth of wormholes , but CCP never explicitly tied it to anything in the game or in lore to substantiate whether this prophecy was fulfilled by any known event. Finally intrailer, some hints were revealed. The trailer quoted these words, highlighting the Stain region nebula and showing the player-built stargates of CCP’s long-term future vision. Somehow, the storyline behind the new gates appeared likely to be directly tied to the Prophecy of Macaper.Perhaps the most controversial prophecy is the fifth event: “the little brother makes the final sorrowful steps home; he is not welcome.” The controversy comes in that there are many entities who could be considered “little brother”, and many potential locations for “home”. Theories have come and gone over the last decade. One of the first theories was that this would be the return of Khanid II , the first Amarrian to refuse killing himself after a succession trial. Probably the most common belief was that this was a description of the modern population of New Eden and the capsuleers returning to Earth some day in the future (which also dovetails nicely with the seventh event). Finally during the run-up to the Incursion release, it was believed by some that this might refer to Sansha Kuvakei, returning to New Eden from exile in Stain to wreak havoc upon the empires. But more recently, as the Sleeper lore has begun to resurface, and particularly since the Caroline’s Star event , some ( including me ) have come to believe that Little Brother might be one of the Jovian sub-races or bloodlines. CCP then fed fuel to this controversy by doing something they had not done in 9 years – they explicitly linked the Prophecy of Macaper to a game event or item. Last week, CCP teased images of portions of the new Drifter battleship, saving the most interesting visual for last, which they posted on the EVE Online Now site … with the Little Brother quote attached .

Quantifying Reproducibility We focus on an article that describes a method that lends itself to workflow representation, since others can, in principle, use the same exact procedures [4]. The article describes a computational pipeline that, as applied, maps all putative FDA and European drugs to possible protein receptors within a given proteome; Mycobacterium tuberculosis (TB) in the paper under study. Mapping is limited to the accessible structural proteome of experimental structures and high quality homology models. Mapping is performed using a binding site comparison algorithm which compares the binding site of the drug bound to a primary protein receptor to potential binding sites found on every available protein in a given proteome. Docking of the drug to the off-target protein is used to further validate the predicted binding. The study uses data from the RCSB Protein Data Bank (PDB [33]) and Modbase [34]. The resultant “drugome” established multiple receptors to which a given drug can bind and multiple drugs that could bind to a given receptor. As such it is a putative map of possible drug repositioning strategies in treating a given condition caused by a pathogen. Although the article focuses on Mycobacterium tuberculosis (TB), according to the article’s abstract: “… the methodology may be applied to other pathogens of interest with results improving as more of their structural proteomes are determined through the continued efforts of structural biology/genomics.” That is, the methodology is likely to be repeated for other organisms and/or repeated in the same organism as more drugs become available and/or more of the structural proteome becomes available. The original work did not use a workflow system; instead the computational steps were run separately and manually. The original work was done over a period of two years, with different authors having different degrees of participation in the design and the programming aspects of the study. There is a TB Drugome project site where many details about the work can be found [35]. The original article was used to challenge participants at the first Beyond the PDF workshop [21]. The workshop attracted participants interested in bettering the communication and comprehension of science. The challenge was to apply the tools they had developed to illustrate their value on a given piece of science to which, as far as possible, all lab notes, raw data, software, drafts of the paper etc. where made available.
Outside the beer hall in Hanoi, under a tree festooned with Christmas lights, a stout elderly woman in billowy striped pants presided, with a cleaver, over a little stand that served roasted dog. Bourdain was relaxing nearby with Dinh Hoang Linh, a sweet-tempered Vietnamese bureaucrat who has been a close friend of his since 2000, when Linh was Bourdain’s government minder on his first trip to Hanoi. Over the years, the recipe for Bourdain’s show has subtly changed. When he first went to Asia, he joked that he was going to eat “monkey brains and poisonous blowfish gizzards.” At a restaurant in Vietnam called Flavors of the Forest, he was treated to a delicacy in which the proprietor grabs a writhing cobra, unzips its belly with a pair of scissors, yanks out its still beating heart, and drops it into a small ceramic bowl. “Cheers,” Bourdain said, before knocking it back like an oyster. If, in subsequent seasons, Bourdain has eaten some other appalling things—bear bile in Vietnam, bull’s-penis soup in Malaysia, the unwashed rectum of a warthog in Namibia—he is careful to distance himself from any suggestion that he trucks in gag-reflex entertainment. When he was getting started, a degree of sensationalism was “exactly the cost of doing business,” he told me, adding, “I’m not going to sneer at it. Whatever gets you across the river.” (He noted, diplomatically, that the Travel Channel currently has a show, “Bizarre Foods,” devoted to that kind of thing.) He has never eaten dog. When I pointed out the dog-hawker in our midst, he said, “I’m not doing it just because it’s there anymore.” Now, when he’s presented with such offerings, his first question is whether it is a regular feature of the culture. “Had I found myself as the unwitting guest of honor in a farmhouse on the Mekong Delta where a family, unbeknownst to me, has prepared their very best, and I’m the guest of honor, and all of the neighbors are watching . . . I’m going to eat the fucking dog,” he said. “On the hierarchy of offenses, offending my host—often a very poor one, who is giving me the very best, and for whom face is very important in the community—for me to refuse would be embarrassing. So I will eat the dog.” Bourdain has softened in other ways.
Pricke and parboyle them, and put them in a quart of claret wine into a Pipkin, halfe an ounce of sugar, a good quantitie of Barberryes, Spinage, and a Fagot of sweet Hearbes, boyld Turnups, and Carrots sliced, and put them into the Pipkin, and boyle them well together: then take strong broth, Vergis, and the yolkes of two or three new layd Egges: straine them, and put them into the Pipkin.
And then there was, after 1972, a feeling of grim dismay about American party politics, a new kind of cynicism, and even a new kind of political reporting, drunk with anti-establishment swagger. “It was just before midnight when I left Cambridge and headed north on U.S. 93 toward Manchester—driving one of those big green rented Auto/Stick Cougars,” Hunter S. Thompson wrote, in “Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail ’72,” about travelling north to report on the New Hampshire primary, “running late, as usual: left hand on the wheel and the other on the radio dial, seeking music, and a glass of iced Wild Turkey spilling into my crotch on every turn.” (My worry, on the drive, was whether I’d remembered to put the lasagna in the oven for my kids.) The year 1972 is even taken, sometimes, as not only the end of the fifth party system but the end of the two-party system altogether. “The Party’s Over” was the title that the political columnist David Broder gave to a polemic published in 1972, which was also the year that a despairing Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr., wrote the introduction to a four-volume “History of U.S. Political Parties,” in which he declared, of the system, “Its prospects have rarely appeared more clouded than they do today.” No one’s ever published volume five. “You’re such a romantic.” Less convincingly, some scholars have suggested that the sixth party system began in 1980. “Without parties there can be no organized and coherent politics,” the Committee for Party Renewal, a bipartisan group of political scientists, proclaimed that year, just before the Reagan revolution realized what Goldwater had only promised, and cable guys began knocking on American doors. Reagan, the Great Communicator, led the G.O.P. at the dawn of a new era of political communication. The F.C.C. abandoned the Fairness Doctrine in 1987, leading to the creation of a new breed of partisan political communicators. “The Rush Limbaugh Show” was heard nationally for the first time in 1988. A fair argument can be made for the significance of 1996, too. That was the start of the first Web browser—during his campaign, Bob Dole famously provided voters with his Web site, but gave them the wrong address—and the first year of Fox News and MSNBC, which were equally keen to animate the party base. A new party system, a new age of news.
Guinea said on Monday a cooler carrying a stolen blood sample infected with the deadly Ebola virus, stolen en route to a test centre, was unlikely ever to be found.A gang of robbers held up a taxi last week near the town of Kissidougou which was transporting the sample from central Kankan prefecture to southern Gueckedou, around 265 kilometres (165 miles) away. "We are confident of not being able to find this cooler. With the media attention around the case, we are confident that the bandits would have got rid of it," said Fode Tass Sylla, spokesman for the government's Ebola response unit.Tass said the virus would not have survived in the sample, although studies have shown that it can last in fluids for several weeks if it is not kept in direct sunlight.Guinea authorities have appealed to the robbers to return the sample, taken from a patient's mouth shortly after they died.The incident has spread alarm over the safety of transporting samples of the highly virulent pathogen, which is estimated to kill around 70 percent of those it infects. "Most of the samples collected in Guinea in recent times come to us via public transport," said Sakoba Keita, the minister in charge of the government's Ebola response in Guinea. "We triple-package the samples and tape them up three times before putting them in the coolers. This sample was taken from the mouth of a victim in Kankan in Upper Guinea before his funeral. "Ebola, which has killed around 5,500 people in Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea, is spread through contact with infected bodily fluids. "We regret this act because it represents a real danger to the population. It is a biological product considered dangerous by the (World Health Organization)," Keita added.He said that if the sample had been thrown away somewhere with direct access to sunlight, the virus would not last for more than a week and could not become airborne. "The real risk is that other people touch the cooler and have contact with the liquid," he added. "In the meantime, we have asked the police to help us ensure that such a case never happens again."
Rather than replacing the goods immediately, Beadle put the money aside, expecting it to increase in value. But the bills instead depreciated. As it gradually became clear that his cash would not regain its former worth, Beadle was "thrown into a state little better than dispair." In the economically turbulent period of the Revolution and its aftermath, the tight-fisted merchant had learned painfully that "wealth could take to itself wings and fly away: Notwithstanding all his vigilance. "(23)With his estate diminished by the unfavorable fluctuations in paper currency, Beadle "adopted a plan of the most rigid family economy," while at the same time trying to maintain "the outward appearance of his former affluence." He also turned toward gloomy reflections and speculations, many of them recorded in his private writings. Beadle was a proud man, determined to avoid the "mortification" of poverty and dependence. He raged against the indignity of his reduced circumstances. It seemed inconceivable to him that a man who had "once lived well, meant well and done well" should fall "into poverty" and submit "to be laughed at." As one who considered himself "above the common mould," Beadle had no intention of falling so low. He was convinced that every man had a right to take his own life; indeed, he thought suicide "the height of heroism." Surely, he reasoned, God would not punish a man for being impatient to meet his deity. Beadle also believed that the right of self-destruction extended to offspring, although he had doubts about the propriety of killing his wife. (24)The merchant's grim speculations were facilitated by his religious and philosophical beliefs. He rejected the notion of "future punishment" as "inconsistent with the goodness of God"; thus he could be confident that his family would face a happy fate after death. Further, his deism entailed a behavioral determinism that made the very concept of sin meaningless. Man, he argued, was a "perfect machine," incapable of any action except as operated upon by some "superior power." A tyrant drenching the world in blood, the killing of his family, the destruction of a fly - all were equally determined by "the hand of heaven" and none, consequently, was blameworthy. "I really think there never was any thing done wrong in the world," he concluded, "but believe that all is right. "(25)Beadle wrestled with the idea of killing himself and his family over a period of three years.
On Thursday Texas A&M announced sophomore starting quarterback Kyle Allen will transfer.This is something that came across my desk earlier this afternoon and I've spent a couple of hours thinking about the ramifications of the former five-star quarterback and Aggie starter leaving A&M after two seasons.Out of respect for Kyle, I didn't break the news because he needed to be prepared for the onslaught that was going to come when Sumlin and A&M eventually put out the official, carefully worded and clean and sanitary press release.Here's the bottom line truth: the Aggies lost a quarterback today that we'll probably see slinging passes in the National Football League in two or three years. More importantly, they lost a guy who probably would have stayed on campus had there been any degree of certainty regarding the direction of the A&M offense or the status of his position coach, an assistant who spent two years recruiting him and also happens to remain on board as the offensive coordinator.This doesn't have to do with Kyler Murray or the fact that Allen was caught in the middle of a back-and-forth battle between two very talented and very decorated young quarterbacks. In my opinion, it has everything to do with instability on that side of the ball and Allen doing what he believed was best for his future.Look, we all assumed that the very real possibility existed that either Allen or Murray would transfer following this season. Even if Allen reclaiming the starting job led to a flicker of hope that Kyle would stay on board and Murray would see how baseball went this spring before re-evaluating where he stood in the pecking order, the reality was that one of the two were likely to leave.The guy walking out the door, as it turns out, just so happens to be the most proven and experienced signal-caller on the Aggie roster and, truth be told, the one who was most likely to nab the starting job in 2016 with Murray spending the spring on the diamond for Rob Childress' potential College World Series squad.There's no way to spin nor sugarcoat the Ags losing Allen, folks, and quite frankly, I have neither the desire nor inclination to do so.The fact is, the situation at quarterback has been handled poorly from the start and came to a head this afternoon.
In particular, the following deficiencies were noted for April: To date we have failed to give complete initiative to the action of a pair capitalizing on the speed of modern equipment. To date we have not eliminated the tactical forms of action based on the older I-16 and I-153 type equipment. Regiment commanders are not assimilating the experience of the aerial battles that have been conducted, by which the war teaches us ... Radio communications are the basis of command and control of combat, but to date the flight crews of 16th and 57th GIAP have not acknowledged that fact. Many extraneous conversations and chatter occur during flight, which interfere with the group leader�s ability to supervise the combat and listen to the vectoring station. [TsAMO, RF, 9 GIAD Archive, collection 1, folder 18, page 3] At the same time, it must be said that a whole series of measures were undertaken in the division to analyze mistakes, and develop and implement new methods of fighting. To expect the instantaneous employment of new tactical decisions would have been thoughtless. Just the same, at the end of May the tone in the analyses of battles was changing; notations were appearing regarding sensible tactical intervals of pairs before the attack, regarding immediate initiative of group commanders at the decisive moments of the engagement. But by this time half of the regiment�s aircraft were at the PARM, and the remaining were going down in fierce battles. One of the most important sources by which one can judge the combat employment of the Spitfires is the testimonials of the pilots themselves about this aircraft. There is hardly a better person to characterize this equipment than a pilot who had to fight in it. Although during Soviet times it was customary to remain silent or curse aviation equipment delivered by Lend-lease, the memoirs of Anatoliy Ivanov, a pilot of 57th GIAP, contain the following description of this aircraft: The Spitfire was a simple aircraft that permitted significant mistakes in the techniques of piloting. The I-16 was much more demanding. The Spitfire had a radio, not a great radio, but a radio nonetheless. The singular superiority of the Spitfire was the fact that it was very light and, because of its thrust-to-weight ratio, was a good climber. This supported reliable vertical maneuver. However the greatest deficiency was the fact that the weapons were spread out along the wings.

For just as is the food which is received, such is the health which results. In fine, although mad pleasures are no pleasures, nevertheless let these things be taken as they are, and it still remains the case that, whatever their nature may be, and whatever the measure of enjoyment yielded by the boasts of riches, and the inflation of honors, and the spendthrift pleasures of the taverns, and the contests of the theatres, and the impurity of fornications, and the pruriency of the baths, they are all things of which one little fever deprives us, while, even from those who still survive, it takes away the whole false happiness of their life. Then there remains only a void and wounded conscience, destined to apprehend that God as a Judge whom it refused to have as a Father, and destined also to find a severe Lord in Him whom it scorned to seek and love as a tender Father. But you, inasmuch as you seek that true rest which is promised to Christians after this life, will taste the same sweet and pleasant rest even here among the bitterest troubles of this life, if you continue to love the commandments of Him who has promised the same. For quickly will you feel that the fruits of righteousness are sweeter than those of unrighteousness, and that a man finds a more genuine and pleasurable joy in the possession of a good conscience in the midst of troubles than in that of an evil conscience in the midst of delights. For you have not come to be united to the Church of God with the idea of seeking from it any temporal advantage.

I was using the method from Kroogr's technique, simply crossing my eyes or diverging them depending on which part of the string I wanted to look at, sort of in a pre-determined way. DO NOT DO THIS! What you have to do is LOOK AT the bead you want to look at, just flick your eyes up to a bead,you can check to see if both eyes have ended up at the same point, and if they are both equally visible etc. But keep your mental focus on the bead, not your eyes. In real life you don't want to be walking around consciously converging your eyes at objects and adjusting depending on whether you see double, so you also do not want to practice like that.When you start using Vivid Vision, just play the game. Don't focus on your eyes and try to make them converge at the thing you want to look at, don't try to achieve perfect fusion, don't do anything like that. Just play the game, your vision will improve, your binocular ability will improve, and eventually you will realise you are able to look at exactly what you want to look at, you'll see depth, and you will feel more present in the environment.Note on Vivid Vision release date: I have been talking with Tuan from Vivid Vision. I'd previously mentioned that the home version should be released around the same time as Rift CV1. Unfortunately he has told me it is delayed until the end of this year. I've put out a mini-VT game for the Rift and Leap Motion, which you can find on the Reddit subs /r/amblyopia and /r/strabismus. That may be helpful to you if you cannot wait until the end of the year to start VT with the Rift.I should be able to update to the new runtime if any of you need it. Let me know in one of the threads on Reddit or PM me.
There is no other way to put it - they are the stars of the show and they know it. There is something to be said about young superstars and their egos, as both Faker and Uzi hold themselves in very high regard. Though they are certainly justified in doing so, an inflated ego can have its drawbacks as Tabe is reportedly the only support in China capable of 'taming' Uzi. With all respect to Tabe, he has done a magnificent job of cultivating a relationship with his AD carry in the laning phase, while shifting gears as games progress to start fights for his team.Uzi's champion pool mirrors Piglet's, with two games on Caitlyn and Vayne and single games on Corki and Ezreal. Like Piglet, his most dangerous champion is Caitlyn, tearing fights apart while being untouchable in the backline. His Vayne play against OMG earned him many fans, and pacifying Doublelift fans who bemoaned the lack of exciting Vayne plays at Worlds. Tabe, boasting that he would pick Annie whenever possible, has delivered on his promise, picking her twice (against four bans), while Sona and Lulu have also been picked twice. Every team that has decided not to ban Annie against Tabe has lost to the Dark Child, and SKT T1 may respect Tabe enough to ban out the initating support.This bottom lane has a lot of potential for action. Both PoohManDu and Tabe understand the flow of the lane and will always seize good opportunities, though at the same time are capable of being caught out and punished for overaggression. Piglet and Uzi combine seamless teamfighting with aggressive laning, and with their egos being as large as they are, one will certainly go home humbled. This match-up represents the best that Korea has to offer against the best that China has to offer, and if the underdogs Royal Club are to win, it will certainly be here.
lettuce leaves Instructions Peanut Butter Sweet Potato Lentil Patties Wash, dry and peel the sweet potatoes. Cut them into cubes, trying to make sure that the cubes are equal in size so that they get roasted at the same pace. Add in around 2 teaspoons of oil and coat the sweet potatoes with oil. Do not add too much oil, just enough to cover the cubes. Preheat your oven to 425 F degrees. Transfer the cubed sweet potatoes onto a baking tray in a single layer and bake at 425 F degrees for 20-25 minutes or till the sweet potatoes are soft and nice. Set aside. Take 1/2 cup of chana dal and wash it. Transfer the washed lentil to a pan, add enough water and let it cook on medium heat for around 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, remove the lentil from the pan and rinse it. The lentil will be soft by now and that's exactly what we want. [You will end up with more than 3/4 cup cooked lentil here, you can use the remaining in some other recipe.] Transfer the cooked lentil and roasted sweet potatoes to a food processor. Pulse to get a smooth mixture. The lentils will not get completely crushed and that's fine, that is what we want. To this mixture now add cayenne pepper powder, salt, cumin powder, coriander powder, garam masala powder, chat masala and mix till well combined. Add Mighty Maple Peanut Butter to the mixture and mix till well combined. Now take a pan and add 1 teaspoon of oil to it. Once the oil is hot, add chopped onions. Saute the onions on medium heat till they start turning light golden brown in color. Remove from heat at this point. Add the sauteed onions along with chopped cilantro and bread crumbs to the sweet potato-lentil mixture and mix till well combined. Add sriracha sauce and mix. Divide the mixture into 4-5 equal parts and roll each part into a round. Press between the palm of your hands to form patties. You can get more patties if you make smaller one, these were really big. Heat your grill pan on medium heat and apply 1-2 teaspoons of oil on it. Once hot place the patties on the grill pan. Once one side is cooked, flip to cook the other side till both sides have grill lines on them. Repeat with all the other patties and set aside.
http://i.imgur.com/fL9oa9G.jpg TL;DR - Testing profitability pools with 1 card on each in hopes of finding the most profitable of them all!Hi all,I'm a small-time miner who's recently discovered profitability pools. Thus far, I've been using Middlecoin, and have had some great days in the past. My biggest (for ~3.2 MHashes) was ~0.118 BTC, and that was sometime in Dec.Although MiddleCoin has been good to me, the ~4% fees are discouraging. Because of this, I've been searching for someone who's really done some side-by-side testing of the various profitability pools, but so far have only really found opinions, and never any proper tests of identical rigs being split between them for a good chunk of time, at the same time, and tracking the difference.The profitability pools I've heard of: (please comment and let me know about any I've missed! )-MiddleCoin-LTCRabbit-MultiPool-UltimateCoinPool-SwitcherCoin-HashCows-HashBros-WafflePool-TradeMyBit-CoinSolver-CleverMining-CoinMineBeing that I only have 1 rig and a laptop, I'm going to attempt to test with a single 7950 card on each of 4 different profitability pools.They are:(for your monitoring pleasure, pls no donations to these.ProfitTest0 - UltimateCoinPool - http://bitref.com/1NCAe4j6gxtAiEEJVeyaus7nmfCbE2gPZ6 ProfitTest1 - SwitcherCoin - http://bitref.com/1GQMbYRxSNpG4WFz6BqzB5WqGDfapR4WWd ProfitTest2 - MultiPool - http://bitref.com/1APTjt8vR3QU7ubLddXVacWBJMqeVGnG7C ProfitTest3 - MiddleCoin - http://bitref.com/1QEbYHbh8bBvhTGEoNLYnAAWexXpfprSK1 MiddleCoin automatically pays out in BTC, so it was easy enough. The other three however, I needed to create a Cryptsy account for each (requiring an e-mail address for each), and manually configure each supported coin with addresses from Cryptsy into the pools configurations, and setup auto-sell in Cryptsy.I'll likely have to babysit each of these Cryptsy accounts, and it'll take a few days to start seeing the results in the BTC wallets, but I'll do my best to start them at the same time, stop them at the same time, and push balances out to wallets at the same time.I should note a few things here:-I wanted to include Hash Bros, but unfortunately their site was down at the time I was setting all of this up.-Although the cards are identical, and are OC'd with all of the same settings, there is a bit of a variance -- they generally range from 655-675 KHashes each (with card 0 being the lowest usually)-For Cryptsy's auto-sell, I chose the 3rd option - 'Sell at 2nd highest sell bid' (highest price).-I set configurable difficulties in pools to 256-Auto-withdraw thresholds I did the minimums without incurring additional fees-I'd love to do more pools, but unfortunately I'm just a lowly 1-rig miner with <2 BTC.
That those gunslingers, those manly, virile, straight-shooting cowboys would always ask the girls for a ‘French,’ what we doctors call fellatio, what you call ‘oh that.’” Notice the date. Note also the cowboys, likewise deprived of female company for long stretches. Now that we know about Blowjob Mountain, or whatever the hell it’s called, I think I can score one for my original theory.
This core, phosphate-independent network is significantly enriched with reactions within primary metabolic pathways such as amino acid biosynthesis, pyruvate metabolism, glyoxylate/dicarboxylate, and the TCA cycle, as well as intermediary metabolic pathways such as C5-branched dibasic metabolism ( Figure 1 B, Fisher's exact test, Bejamini-Hochberg procedure, FDR < 0.05; Table S2 C). Further analysis showed significant enrichment for metabolites/reactions involved in various carbon fixation pathways, including the dicarboxylate-hydroxybutyrate cycle, the hydroxypropionate bi-cycle, and the reductive TCA cycle ( Table S2 D), which has been previously proposed as a primitive carbon fixation pathway in ancient autotrophs (). Enrichment for reactions involved in heterotrophic carbon utilization was also observed within pathways for one-carbon (serine pathway) and two-carbon assimilation (Krebs cycle, methylaspartate, and glyoxylate cycle) ( Table S2 D). In addition to a diverse central carbon metabolism, half of the proteinogenic amino acids (G, A, D, N, E, Q, S, T, C, and H) are producible, representing six of the ten amino acids observed in the Miller-Urey experiment (). In this network, building upon a core carbon, energy and nitrogen metabolism, hydrogen sulfide enables the production of sulfur-containing heterogeneous peptides like glutathione, as well as thioester derivatives like S-formyl and S-succinyl glutathione. Intermediates in the degradation and biosynthesis of more complex biomolecules are also observed; 5,6-dihydrouracil is an oxidized catabolic product of uracil and pyrrole is the basic building block for complex heterocyclic aromatic rings like heme ( Figure 1 A). Thus, we report the existence of a phosphate-independent core metabolic network reachable from simple putative prebiotic compounds.
ince 2010, UK Uncut has facilitated direct actions involving tens of thousands across Britain in acts of civil disobedience. These actions have targeted the public spending cuts executed by the coalition government that came to power that year, alongside actions against corporations that are making massive profits while not paying taxes. The anti-cuts group recently mobilized a nationwide action called “Roadblocks for Justice” that focused specifically on cuts to legal aid, which is the state support for legal services that ensure citizens are provided equality before the law. England’s most senior family judge, Sir James Munby, has expressed dismay about the British government’s plans to remove legal aid to defendants in serious family cases. As an example, the civil rights law firm, Tooks Chambers, is soon to close down, and a senior lawyer at the firm asserts this happened because of government’s cuts so far to legal aid. With more still to come. Last Saturday, October 5, the street outside the Royal Courts of Justice was brought to a standstill. Activists against disability cuts, many in wheelchairs, locked themselves together. Supporters of UK Uncut and others opposing austerity occupied the other carriageway with a samba band providing the beat. They looked on as police interrupted those performing street theater. “This road block represents the U.K. government, who is blocking people’s rights and access to justice,” explained Anna Walker, a UK Uncut supporter. “We decided this would highlight the impact of the legal aid cuts that will particularly affect disabled people, migrants and the homeless. The vulnerable in society are being denied a path to justice, so we wanted a straight-up piece of civil disobedience to reject their policies.” Gordon Linch, participating with Disabled People Against Cuts (DPAC), added: “Without legal aid, you cannot challenge the cuts. The government are doing this to shut up the voice of these people. If it was not for legal aid, the Stephen Lawrence and Mark Duggan families would not have been able to correct the injustices they faced as two key examples.” The injustice of these cases is famous in Britain, though perhaps less so abroad. Stephen Lawrence was murdered in 1993, and only years later the British justice system found that the Metropolitan Police had mishandled the case due to institutional racism. Mark Duggan was shot by police officers in a taxi in North London in August of 2011, which sparked riots across the country.
These changes seek to even out Stukov's level 1 talents, notably leaving only Poppin' Pustules unchanged. Spine Launcher's slow duration is a significant upgrade. If Stukov is perfectly stutter stepped, he only stops for 0.1875 seconds while the 20% slow effectively costs the enemy hero he targets 0.2 seconds of movement. Now the slow will effectively cost Stukov's target 0.3 seconds. Base movespeed is 4.3984 meters per second, so Stukov goes from gaining ~0.055 meters per basic attack (With perfect stutter stepping) to gaining ~0.5 meters, an 800% increase in movespeed differential when kiting.The quest Fetid Touch is now significantly easier to complete. The earlier "checkpoint" completion at 15 hits rather than 20 makes the next half of the quest easier by reducing the cooldown, meaning you can find more opportunities to land Weighted Pustule.Growing Infestation now increases the cooldown of Lurking Arm from 8 seconds to 12, or from 1.5 seconds to 5.5 seconds with It Hungers at level 7.One Good Spread is now easier to benefit from, becoming relevant on 3 lane maps that go 1-3-1 lane setup rather than just maps with a 4-1 lane setup (Whether due to having 2 lanes or using a 4 man rotation between 2 lanes + a solo laner). Although the mana refund change keeps this talent in line with the base Healing Pathogen mana cost increase, but is still not the reason to pick this talent.Vigorous Reuptake's bonus Bio-kill switch healing was decreased from 250 hp to 200 hp, making One Good Spread more competitive comparitively. One Good Spread provides an early power spike, while Vigorous Reuptake represents an investment in late game healing.I will note that Biotic Armor and Top Off did not see any changes. Biotic Armor is probably fine as is, but Top Off is just an awful talent and should apply to all allies affected by Healing Pathogen, not just the initial target.Pox Populi lost the last 2 ticks of healing, reducing it from 240 additional healing to 160. This is probably intended to even out talent power, as the Pox Populi simply offered too much additional healing given the ease of use relative to the other 16 talents.Controlled Chaos is no longer a downgrade. Previously, with the small push distance and the 40 second charge cooldown (Plus the 3 second internal cooldown [ICD]), Controlled Chaos actually made Flailing Swipe worse. Full charges now takes 90 seconds instead of 120.
Mercs aren't as important as other maps because the objectives don't take enemy heroes away from their lanes. They're decent if you can get them to push with a turn-in spider wave, but I wouldn't go out of your way to grab these on this map. The boss on this map is far back in a choke point with a cyclone knockback, making him a huge trap if the enemy team is observant. Don't go for it unless the other team is down a couple of heroes or they're all busy defending spiders (that last part is still risky, though). The very small number of merc camps on this map make non-hero damage even less important. The small upper level also means mobility (creep speed, Nydus, etc.) are also less valuable.I findbetter here than on other maps. With only 2 lanes, there's a good chance your team will push well into a wall before it's time to go into the mines. Downing a tower or two can let your golem stay alive a lot longer and probably finish a keep. It's also hard to stay on creep on this level with so much running in and out of the mines. The creep also gets cleared a lot due to only having 2 lanes where the fights take place. That said, I still won't take it unless I know my team is going to push hard in my lane.You (and the larger portion of your team) should go to the lane your golem will push to try to get him an advantage. You're great at pushing back heroes and this is the lane where you will probably.Whenever you're going in the mines, drop a creep at the entrance and then every intersection you pass. Knowing when the enemies are coming in for a counter in the mines is very important. You have no escapes, so be very careful about getting caught solo in the mines. Unless you left a really strong trail of creep, you probably won't get away if you're engaged with no peel.On the first few golems, the small camps give a lot more skulls than killing the golem and with a lot less effort. Don't go for the golem first, even though Zagara's good at that.Grab your giants after mines. They can do really good damage against the enemy's golem.
Contextual Uncertainty. As already suggested, in ordinary conversational settings hundreds of objects are in view, rather than three or four, many of them plausible referents. A theory stipulating that all such context-appropriate alternatives are stored, awaiting cross-situational disambiguation, grows less appealing as their number increases. That is, constraints on memory for past contexts may be a more severely limiting factor in natural learning than appears in stripped down laboratory demonstrations. Far more troublesomely, simulating “context” using repeated identical images seriously distorts reality, for learners hear the word dog not always and only in the presence of some dog (or dog-image) frozen in time and place, but in the presence of different dogs doing different things—and sometimes in the absence of any dog . Hence, even with perfect memory, one may never settle on a single correct meaning as exposures accumulate. Because words are uttered from time to time absent their referents, the number of available hypotheses could actually increase across contexts, posing a principled conundrum for statistical learning machinery. A collateral possibility is that learners may have implicit means for distinguishing between more and less useful contexts, discarding some input without its entering into the search for meaning (16). Our first aim in the present experiments will be to understand the extent to which statistical-accrual procedures, demonstrable for small fixed sets of word-image pairings, scale up to the multiply ambiguous contexts in which vocabulary is acquired. Evaluating the Models. Although the models usually proposed for laboratory word-learning findings are information-accrual based, their major computational assumptions have not been tested behaviorally, but simply taken for granted. In outline, these schemes propose that for each learning instance, all concepts known to the learner are cross-tabulated with the word. If the situation is interpreted as supporting certain pairings, those associations are strengthened (e.g., hearing “moop” in the presence of Fig. 1B leads to simultaneous strengthening of the moop-shoe and moop-chair associations, among others). Later encounters with moop in other contexts lead to additional associative updates. As this theory implies, even when each learning instance is low in informativity (because any of the objects on the screen could be the referent of moop), learners gradually reach consensus by tracking and retaining all observed pairings, with the strongest associate chosen at the end. However, no time-course data are provided for learning across instances that might validate these assumptions.
Apparently the two sides have agreed on most issues discussed, including the holding of elections in six months under the auspices of a Palestinian Authority/Fatah-Hamas unity government headed by Mr. Abbas.The implementation (according to this report in today's Jerusalem Post) of such a unity government will take place five weeks from now.Issues they haven't agreed upon include the future of Hamas's armed wing which the militia created following its total seizure of the Gaza Strip in 2007.Al Jazeera has also quoted the Hamas Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh saying that, "The current phase is the phase of implementing what was signed in the past, not making dialogues to reach new understandings," before adding that, "We are in the final hours. "Fatah's Azzam al-Ahmad echoed these sentiments, he said he is happy that Fatah and Hamas are taking firm steps to "end the ugly split." More about Netanyahu, Fatah, Hamas Netanyahu Fatah Hamas
First of all, ensure your significant other has a retirement account of her own that is funded as well as yours is. This will both make life easier if you split up, and give her a safety net if something happens to you than if you have all of the retirement savings. I don't know how your country manages pensions or retirement accounts, but figure out how to get her into something that is as close to equal to yours as possible. Make sure both of you have similar quality credit histories. You should both have credit cards in your own names (or be true joint owners of the accounts, not just authorized users, where that is possible), and both be on the mortgage/etc. when possible. This is a common issue for women whose spouse dies young and who have no credit history. (Thanks @KateGregory for reminding me on this one) Beyond that, work out how much your budget allows for in spending money for the two of you, and split that equally. This spending money (i.e., "fun money" or money you can do whatever you like with) is what is fundamentally important in terms of financial independence: if you control most of the extra money, then you're the one who ultimately has control over much (vacations, eating out, etc.) and things will be strained. This money should be equal - whether it is literally apportioned directly (each of you has 200 a month in an account) or simply budgeted for with a common account is up to you, whatever works best for your personal habits; separate accounts works well for many here to keep things honest. When that money is accounted for, whatever it is, split the rest of the bills up so that she pays some of them from her income. If she wants to be independent, some of that is being in the habit of paying bills on time. One of you paying all of the bills is not optimal since it means the other will not build good habits. For example, my wife pays the warehouse club credit card and the cell phone bill, while I pay the gas/electric utilities. Whatever doesn't go to spending money and doesn't go to the bills she's personally responsible for or you're responsible for (from your paycheck) should go to a joint account.
For example, a 6BX7 has an rp of 1300 ohms and it is rare for any pentode to have an rp of less than 50k; in fact, most are closer to being ideal current sources, i.e. near infinite rp. This low rp of triode is a great boon, when the circuit is a Grounded Cathode amplifier and the load is a plate resistor. But in a transformer loaded SE amplifier, the low rp now proves to be a detriment to low noise operation.
Really, the only shame here is that it's not a longer engagement, as most people aren't going to have time to go see a movie on a Thursday night. What only makes matters worse is that The Godfather was originally released on March 24, 1972 and this year March 24 falls on a Saturday. I suppose they just want to keep as many theaters open for The Hunger Games as possible. In addition to being the year that The Dark Knight Rises, The Avengers, The Hobbit and Skyfall come out, 2012 has some very special anniversaries. As we previously reported , Paramount Pictures, founded in 1912, is celebrating its centennial, but one of the company's greatest films has a big birthday this year. The Godfather, released in 1972, is now 40 years old and that isn't going unnoticed.Paramount has announced that on March 1st - a.k.a. this Thursday - 55 Cinemark XD auditoriums around the country will be showing Francis Ford Coppola’s restored version of The Godfather. According to the press release, the film has been "meticulously restored using 5.1 digital surround sound and re-mastered using state-of-the-art technology." Continuing the celebration, Cinemark theaters will also be showing The Godfather Part II on XD screens, though that won't come until April 19th.Said Cinemark VP of Marketing and Communication James Meredith, ""There is no greater iconic film than The Godfather. It has set the standard for story-telling, launched a generation of great actors, and provided movie-goers an unparalleled experience." The year it was released The Godfather won three Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Actor (Marlon Brando) and Best Adapted Screenplay. Since its release the film has made nearly $250 million at the global box office and is considered by most to be one of the greatest films of all time.Really, the only shame here is that it's not a longer engagement, as most people aren't going to have time to go see a movie on a Thursday night.

In November, a family of three will lose $29 a month when the SNAP per person benefit allotment is cut as the federal government eliminates stimulus measures instituted in the immediate aftermath of recession. Five million people will be entirely cut off from SNAP benefits if limits in eligibility are imposed under plans to cut the program that emerged during discussion of the new Farm Bill this summer.
For this year's incarnation of this signature challenge, the drivers each have to navigate a 1992 Buick Roadmaster station wagon through an obstacle course. A partially-open plexiglas tank containing 200 litres (53 US gal) of water is mounted on the roof and any less-than-smooth driving will lead to a soaking for the driver and their nominator. Even Andrew is unable to carry out the course perfectly, losing 20 litres (5.3 US gal) in his demonstration. Tyler is up first and his sharp, erratic braking leads to him losing 185 litres (49 US gal), setting the bar very low. Daniella gets off to a terrible start, crashing through the barrier at the end of the initial straight and losing a lot of water, though she does a little better in the rest of her run, losing 110 litres (29 US gal). Lou requires two attempts on the initial straight after suffering a panic attack on her first go and then has to be guided by Andrew for much of her run. While she loses less than Tyler, with 120 litres (32 US gal), she takes by far the longest to complete the challenge. Krystal ends up quitting the challenge after only driving a few car lengths, during which she still gets soaked thanks to erratic acceleration and sharp braking. Diana drives too hastily during her run, causing her to lose 150 litres (40 US gal). Mike has one of the better runs so far, losing slightly over 100 litres (26 US gal), but his slow response times still prove a major issue. Amrinder, whom Akash is unable to accompany in this challenge due to an old back injury, has a less-than-enthusiastic Tim in the car with him. Despite Amrinder committing a major blunder when he makes a wrong turn and nearly leaves the course, causing him and Tim to get soaked when he is forced to brake, he still has the best performance for the second challenge in a row, losing 80 litres (21 US gal). Mustang Challenge: The Eye of the Needle: For this challenge, which has been present in every season of the show so far, the drivers each have to navigate the car at a fixed 70 km/h through five arches at staggered positions. Diana, who is forced to drive with no distractions, passes with ease.
That case was also dismissed.- There it was told that there could possibly be any form of incitement that urges others to commit criminal acts, such as committing murder, but it is not at all the case in this case, says Gisela Sjövall.When it comes to, for example, the swastika, it has been established that the symbol is in itself an expression of hate of Jews. It is not impossible that the IS-logo could eventually get the same status, says Gisela Sjövall.- So far we have not come. It might change in ten years, she says.Comment below.
Three people were killed on Friday in grenade attacks on police in Burundi where nearly 600 people have been arrested during protests and a clash sparked by the president's bid to stay in power.The director general of police, General Andre Ndayambaje told AFP two officers were killed and one was wounded in the attack in Kamenge district of the capital Bujumbura, while a local resident said a civilian also lost his life and two others were wounded.A similar attack in the centre of the capital of the small central African nation wounded three policemen, the general said.A senior police officer, who requested anonymity, said "It is clear that the demonstrators launched the simultaneous attacks". "If they want war, they will get war," he said.A Burundian analyst was more cautious, saying the attacks could have been the work of protesters but could also be being manipulated to "give credit to the official theory of an armed demonstration".The political unrest erupted after the ruling CNDD-FDD party last weekend designated President Pierre Nkurunziza as its candidate in the next presidential election, which is due to be held on June 26.Opposition figures and rights groups say Nkurunziza's attempt to stand for a third consecutive term violates the constitution as well as a peace deal that ended a civil war in 2006.The United Nations voiced alarm over the political crisis, saying Nkurunziza's government was engaged in a brutal crackdown but "will not succeed in quashing dissent".Social media has been blocked and radio stations have been shut down.The protesters announced a two-day truce but warned they would return to the streets on Monday unless Nkurunziza backs down.Sporadic clashes continued in parts of Bujumbura on Friday, witnesses said, while hundreds of university students - whose student lodgings have been closed by the government - have been camping outside the US embassy, saying they want protection.According to the Burundian Red Cross, at least seven people have died and 66 others have been wounded in nearly a week of clashes between police and protesters in the capital. Medical sources say many have suffered gunshot wounds since Sunday.Police spokesman Pierre Nkurikiye told AFP that 577 arrests have been made, with nearly 250 cases sent for prosecution and 150 undergoing questioning.
Just around noon on Sunday, 4th of May 2014 while my senior citizen mom and brother (person with disability) headed out to Makati, a group of 4 females and 1 male broke into our house. Their movements were captured by one of our CCTV’s that was hidden from plain sight. We could tell that they were pros at this as they managed to remove and also steal the three other units installed inside our house. So we are not able to obtain footage from those, but hopefully, the video on this one is enough to find these criminals. The culprits were all dressed up casually and acting normally to avoid any suspicion. Neighbors even thought they were our “balikbayan” relatives because of all their big bags they took out of the house! Those were our things! With all their tactics and strategies really just shows that they knew what they were doing and have probably done this before! From knocking on doors first to check if anyone is home, going in and out of the gate side entry so neighbors will think they have been in and belong there, and especially pretending everything was normal. They really acted calmly and like professionals. It took them less than hour, around fifty-four minutes to loot our place, taking and stealing all our precious possessions from watches, jewelries, mobile phones, wireless devices, personal vaults, cameras, sneakers, sandals, perfumes, electronics like iPads, MacBook pro, xoom tablet, medicines, and even our food inside the fridge! The first thief on the video, the guy, managed to get in by jumping through the fence and force-opened the back door of our kitchen using a wrench. After the guy was able to get in, he opened the main door for the four female criminals to get in and the looting party began. Here’s the video for you to see below and the images of the five repulsive individuals. I hope for every Filipino to share this story and to help identify the perpetrators for their evil deeds. It happened to my family, it can happen to anyone and it is just a matter of time till we finally catch them, with your help! Please spread the word on this!
Newly redesigned flexible rubber fingers gently feed brittle paint with ease, while the interior of the loader is designed with smooth surfaces to prevent breakage from paint turbulence.The Spire III Drive system is 35% smaller and integrated into a newly designed captured raceway that allows the Spire III to feed faster and more consistent than ever while still being able to feed the worst paintballs imaginable without skipping a beat.The Spire III comes standard with a larger Smart Spring Ramp that helps feed at a variety of angles, while also interfacing with the Spire III Reload Indicator to alert you when you’re low on paint.With the new Hinged Shell Technology, the easiest loader to disassemble and put back together again just got even easier. Access to everything in the Spire III, from changing batteries to changing the speed feed or cleaning the loader can be done in seconds.Not only can the Spire be disassembled in seconds, but now the tray and raceway itself on the Spire III can be disassembled for easy cleaning or service without using any tools.The Spire III flexible fingers are co-molded to a quick release ring making their removal for cleaning or maintenance easier.The Spire III Drive is attached by a smooth magnetic surface on the top of the drive, making it easier to remove and install.By integrating the backshell directly into the top shell, the Spire III has fewer parts to worry about while still retaining it’s unique style characteristics.Between a smaller, lighter Spire Drive and upgraded paint detection to prevent over-spinning, the Spire III is able to use less power while feeding. Additionally, the LEDs are automatically dimmed to conserve 50% more power after a few seconds of inactivity. Battery-conscious players can also turn on an ultra-low battery mode which saves even more power. This is especially useful if your batteries are low and you can't find replacements in a pinch.The Spire III lid can be replaced with the best speedfeed in paintball in seconds. The newly updated Spire CrownSF II features toolless quick change removable fingers.
Gigabyte already has a wide portfolio when it comes to graphics cards but that didn’t stop them from teasing yet another model. The new card is going to belong to the AORUS line again, and goes by the name "GeForce GTX 1080 Ti AORUS Waterforce Xtreme Edition".The Waterforce Xtreme Edition from Gigabyte has been equipped with an all-in-one cooler and usually there is a reference PCB on these cards from Gigabyte. Unlike other models based on an all-in-one cooler, the GTX 1080 Ti Waterforce Xtreme Edition uses a copper waterblock for the GPU and the memory modules. On top of that there is an aluminum heatsink, connected via a heatpipe to the main block, that covers other parts of the card as well.While the GTX 1080 Ti Founders Edition works at 1480MHz/1582MHz Core/Boost frequencies, the Gigabyte GTX 1080 Ti Waterforce Xtreme Edition is clocked at 1632MHz/1746MHz Core/Boost. Due to the capable cooler and the factory overclock, the Gigabyte GTX 1080 Ti Waterforce Xtreme Edition should provide excellent gaming performance.Since all the latest Gigabyte Aorus products have been equipped with an armada of LEDs for RGB lighting, also on this graphics card there are several LEDs on both sides of the PCB. According to the vendor the GTX 1080 Ti AORUS Waterforce Xtreme Edition comes with premium-grade chokes and capacitors for increased lifespan. In the case of the connectors, the card packs a whopping six outputs, including three DisplayPorts, a dual-link DVI-D connector, two HDMI ports on the I/O plate and another HDMI port on the front of the board. Like all Pascal cards the GTX 1080 Ti Waterforce Xtreme Edition can send the monitor signal to up to four displays simultaneously. When the VR mode is enabled, the front-facing HDMI port is active and the DVI-D port is disabled.So far Gigabyte has not revealed any details on pricing and availability regarding their GTX 1080 Ti Waterforce Xtreme Edition graphics card, but a Twitter post suggests that the card should become available July 7th.Source: Techreport
Three weeks earlier, NK deliberately tested a medium-range missile during the visit of Japan's prime minister Shinzo Abe to the White House. The U.S., aware of the NK provocations, is holding the joint military exercise between the U.S. and South Korea, known as Foal Eagle. This involves 320,000 troops, highly advanced firepower, and aircraft including the F-35 Lightning II fighter. But though NK considers this as preparation for a pre-emptive strike for a future invasion, for the U.S. it is a defensive operation. The defense is being enhanced by the beginning of deployment of THAAD (Terminal High Altitude Area Defense) an anti-missile defense system, being emplaced in South Korea. The system is supposed to be completely deployed by the end of 2017. China is opposed to this system, arguing that it is destroying the regional security balance, and that it might be THAAD's main target, a contention denied by the U.S. Unfortunately, at this moment South Korea is engulfed in a political crisis due to the decision of the Constitutional Court to uphold the impeachment of its President Park Geun-hye and ordered her removal from office as a result of charges of corruption and cronyism on behalf of a friend who pressured companies, including Samsung, to give millions to foundations she controlled. Park is the first South Korean president to be forced from office, though not the first to be impeached. China may be the key, since it has influence over Pyongyang. The country is unhappy with the NK missile and nuclear tests. It has advocated denuclearization of the Korean peninsula and has called for United Nations sanctions against NK. It has already in February 2017 suspended coal imports from NK. China's foreign minister, Wany Yi, sensing the danger to his country, calls for NK to suspend its nuclear program while the U.S. and South Korea should end their military exercises. Irrespective of the troubling trade issue between the U.S. and China the present impasse is an opportunity to consider some kind of political rapprochement together with Japan in order to remove the NK threat. President Trump has an opportunity for decisive action and his first international triumph.

And, at the worst points, they tricked me into believing they were competitive and proceeded to lose every game – without the luxury of their own first round pick.It’s been tough. I once described the Leafs as being able to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. I don’t know how I’ve managed to keep going.But then something funny happened as I was eulogizing my faith. The Leafs scored a goal. And then they scored another goal. I was slowly being drawn back in. I was wary that this was a trick, but by the time the Leafs scored their goalie interference goal I was jumping up and down and yelling at the refs for disallowing that goal. I was back.That called-back goal was the best thing to happen to this Leafs’ season. The Leafs haven’t won a game since Colton Orr blatantly interfered with the Panthers’ goalie and caused a minor stir across the league. The Karma Police definitely went after the Leafs hard for that. The Leafs scored a referee assisted win and they would pay for their transgressions.And then the losing streak happened. Three weeks later we’re at this moment in time and the Leafs get a goal called back on a dubious call. Alright, that’s it, we’re even. The Universe can stop fucking us over.The entire game I worried that the Leafs would blow their lead and I would have to post my depressing piece about how I no longer cared about the Leafs. Thankfully, I won’t have to.This is my 100th post here and I was working on something a little longer and exciting to celebrate, but the Leafs don’t turn their season around every night. And they certainly don’t restore the faith in their long-suffering fan base every night.I consider myself a loyal man. I pride myself on my willingness to forgive. I try to stay level throughout a tumultuous season. But even I was at my breaking point. I already pushed the panic button on the Leafs’ season in Florida last week and I was ready to admit that all was lost tonight. When I’m about ready to say it’s enough, it means it’s pretty bad.But tonight changed everything. It’s only one win and the Leafs still need to fight the whole season just to sneak into the playoffs, but, once again, there’s hope.

Fortunately, in the process of doing so, Isome of the best. I dropped them a note, explained the opportunity, and they signed on. Pretty soon, we had in our arsenal not only a super-fast CPU miner, but also a great little GPU miner.The beauty of having both was that it reduced our cost basis by a factor of two. While the GPU miner wasn't all that much faster than a CPU miner, due to the way pricing on the spot market often works out, you can rent a machine with a GPU for a similar price to one that only has a CPU. So within a few weeks, we were able to mine on both the GPU and CPU at the same time.Which was fortunate, because that rock-in-my-guts May 28th incident rolled around sooner than I'd have ever guessed.From what I can back-patch of it, my contact checked with another developer to see if there was room to further optimize my code on a contract basis. I don't know the details of that contact, so I won't speculate, but something somewhere wentwrong, and the other developer incorporated my optimizations into an open source release. Overnight, our edge started to disappear.I gave up sleep for another night and eked out one last 5% performance boost to my code, but now we were really depending on having fast GPU code and on minimizing mining cost. We all spent some time benchmarking and running price/performance analyses about the types of instances available at Amazon, and reduced the cost a little through that. But then we got the GPU miner done, and, bogglingly, found ourselves back in business!Things continued well for a week or two, until on June 4, another GPU developer, Claymore, released his own GPU miner -- but it targeted only AMD GPUs, and Amazon's were Nvidia. It was also more than 2x slower than ours -- three cheers for fast code. We held our breath waiting for an onslaught of new miners, but it never came. My best guess is that the newness of the Cryptonote software, as well as some difficulty getting it running because of a lot of dependencies on Boost and other libraries, scared a lot of people off and kept the technical barriers to entry high.In the end, our game continued into-- almost two months of mining at an advantage large enough to make a profit on Amazon.
This one was one of the hardest to write. I wrote page after page after page, revision after revision trying to get a LOT of information into a very small space. You see, I feel that Twilight is something special in a great many ways (even more than Pinkie). And I struggled for a while trying to figure out what I would call her "true" element as I had for the others and I considered just calling it "magic" and being done with it.However, after thinking about it, I realized that if there is such a thing as magic in this world or theirs, love is the only possible answer. Using this as a base, I described everything Twilight is from the perspective that she is practically bursting with love and just looking for ponies to share it with.Let's be honest, most of us can see ourselves in these ponies and, for me, the one I identify most with is Twilight. Smart, talented, modest (ok maybe not that one, but I'm realistic! ), socially awkward and unable to easily form friendships, but earnest to learn, help and teach. Twilight, though a work of fiction, is like a kindred spirit to me, kind of like the little sister I never had. I laugh at her frustrations, I cheer for her accomplishments, and I hurt when she sad, scared, or upset (Lesson Zero was really awesome, but hard for me too).I guess to me, Twilight represents to me how amazing love is. How is it that us bronies can feel such strong devotion and affection to the world that Lauren and Hasbro created for us and all the ponies within it? Why is it that I know the deep sadness Celestia must feel knowing that the ponies she loves will someday be gone? The answer is love. Maybe it's love for a fantasy; an idea, but what's wrong with that? I'm in love with the idea that there really could be a world where love is the rule and kindness the norm. After all, friendship is magic, but love is even greater.EDIT: Holy shit! My man card just self ignited and burned to ashes. Ah well... who needs it anyway?EDIT 2: Yes, I know I'm biased, but I tried to tone it down to keep it fair. Some of this is naturally going to be focused on Twilight, but she IS the main character with a special destiny so, meh.
This case isn't available in America, which means that there are virtually no reviews or build logs online, in English or otherwise. I found a few, either in the C10 (the QB One's sister) or in the QB One, but none of them answered the question I was asking.Would the Nepton fit?According to the Sharkoon website the answer is no. With fans, the Nepton 240m radiator hits 52mm. The QB One only allows for radiators of 50mm. Eventually I came to the end of my final placement and final assignment. I was tired of getting home and working until dinner, so I decided I would do something else, build a new PC (sort of).I ordered the QB One from Amazon (good old Prime) and this Friday I set about dismantling Ruby (the 380t) and transferring components into this new case.Already it looks so small.The first step was to open up the QB One, and like the SG13, it is pretty much just a frame. There is a power cord included so that the PSU can be mounted at the front, and that is very neatly tidied away and cable tied before sale. That certainly made my life easier.Now when I first built my PC I did so with the help of a friend, and although I had changed the RAM and drives since then, I had never done a full-blown build by myself. That and the whole flat is carpeted, so I was a little nervous. Equipped with an anti-static wrist strap I first removed everything from the 380t. It was relatively simple, big the case may be, but it's lovely to work in.That done, I began to transfer components into the QB One. Oddly enough I had no problems popping the I/O shield into place, it snapped in satisfyingly and without a fight. There will be no baptism of blood for the Black Opal.Clearly not baptising the case was a mistake, my PSU (a Superflower HX750W semi-modular) wouldn't fit! that is the last time I trust Overclockers specifications. I knew I was taking the risk in truth. Superflower themselves listed the PSU as 165mm long, but the 380t should only fit 160mm. Overclockers listed it as 145mm, right on the limit for the QB One. I wagered that Superflower was factoring in the length of the modular connectors as well.

When you wear a sarong or some other drape, some nude people may start to feel uncomfortable, then also reach for a sarong. Please support the central mission of Naked Club... to be naked! You may wear some body adornment as long as it does not cover parts of your body normally considered part of "nakedness". Guys please do not be a "shirt-cocker" - if the sun is too strong wear sunscreen or stay in the shade.5. WRIST BANDS - All attendees will wear an issued wrist band throughout the event to identify that they are fully paid and registered. It is an attractive dark tan rubber bracelet.6. PHOTO ID - Upon arrival, Lupin Lodge requires all visitors to present photo ID, complete Lupin's registration form, and submit to and pass a " Megan's Law " online background check. You will also check in with our event coordinator and receive your wrist band. The check-in kiosk will likely be set up on the main lawn.Several inspiring individuals are coming to perform, help and conduct workshops but we're still looking for more ideas and leaders for this event, and certainly for future events as well. Booked leaders and performers attend for free and are paid an honorarium. Please get in touch with me (Nomad) if you want to propose something.- The initial crew of Naked Club elves will arrive and start preparing for the event.- Attendees may opt to arrive on this day to set up their camping spot. An evening dinner and event will be planned for anyone who has arrived at this point.Activities will start early in the morning and continue non-stop through the day including the evening. If you want to be part of the full Bodyfest experience, camp another night so you can stay up late.- Morning Yoga class and more activities will continue for part of the day.If you are only able come for part of the event, eg. only Saturday, it is completely OK.There is plenty of parking at Lupin Lodge. Detailed driving directions will be provided once you are fully confirmed to attend. If you do not have a car let us know and we will try to get you carpooled (but don't wait until a week before - we'll be too busy to deal with that).
In a 2006 High Court of Justice case that dealt with a similar prohibition that froze the ability of Palestinian citizens of Israel to apply for family reunification with spouses from the OPT, the majority of judges opined that every person has the constitutional right to a family life “from the perspective of the geographic location of the family unit, which they have chosen for themselves,” but rejected the petition against the prohibition on the basis of security considerations. [121] Based on a review of “dozens of requests involving residency in the West Bank” since Israel imposed the freeze of the population registry, the Israeli rights group B’Tselem found that Israeli authorities “refused in specific cases to delineate the threat to security if the request [for family reunification] were approved.”[122] Instead, the state attorney’s office has cited “the outbreak of hostilities in September 2000” and “the breakdown that occurred in the relationship between Israel and the Palestinian Authority” as sufficient justifications for the policy according to which “applications for family unification are not being handled by the Israeli side.”[123] However, according to the Israeli military, relations had significantly improved by June 2007, after Fatah formed an emergency Palestinian government in the West Bank in response to Hamas’s takeover of Gaza. With the establishment of the new Palestinian government, the relations between the Civil Administration in Judea and Samaria and the local Palestinian security forces were renewed and reinforced, both in the civilian and security spheres, and working relations continue to exist for the benefit of regional development, addressing the needs of local citizens in various civilian matters and also for coordinating between the Palestinian security forces and the I.D.F. [124] As discussed below, with the exception of a quota of family reunification requests granted between 2007 and 2008, and a quota of address change requests processed in 2011, Israel has continued to refuse to make changes to the population registry after 2007. The state has also argued that the issue was a political matter relating to Israel’s ties with the PA, over which the court lacked jurisdiction. The state later adduced, as further support for this argument, Israel’s decision to sever all ties with the Palestinian Authority after elections in 2006 brought Hamas to power in the Palestinian government, which at that time administered parts of both the West Bank and Gaza.

I too am an adopted child from India. I came to America when I was three and a half. I was born in Bombay almost 28 years ago. Watching the video brought back memories of how I wanted to fit in. Since I was a little girl, I've always felt that I am white with brown skin and I still feel that way today. I got teased a lot because I had brown skin and my parents had white. I felt so out of place growing up socially. I look back at all the teasing, and the insecurity and realized that I was a fortunate child even though I got the cruelty from others. I am very lucky and very grateful for my adoption. I can't imagine who I would be if I wasn't adopted. If I grew up in India, I probably wouldn't have the luxuries and education that I have now. I think my biological mother did me a great service. I never blamed her for abandoning me. I am more grateful that she did. I was blessed to go into a family that could give me all the care and love. I can't ask for better parents. I was raised like I was biologically their own. How could I blame someone for giving me this life? I look at my adoption as my second chance of life. I am curious about my biological parents, but I have never felt the urge to find them. If I did, I have no information to go by. I was left on the steps of the orphanage right when I was born with no information. I have always had curiosities of what traits I got, medical history, biological siblings, etc.If I went back to India, I would feel so out of place. I would like to see the orphanage that I was in both in Bombay and Delhi. 27 years later, I don't know if anyone would remember me. I too would have doubts if I encountered someone. It is like the girls said, "The woman may just have wanted to feel good about herself because she made a child's life better." I see my friends having babies and remembering stories about their first walk, words, what they were like etc., and I have no information. I feel left out that I can't go by stories when I was baby/toddler.
"The rumpus, ignited by a few eco-activists and fuelled by a mad BBC bureaucracy, has demonstrated the sort of foot-stamping insistence on orthodoxy not seen during peacetime since Oliver Cromwell's Commonwealth in the 17th century. ""I don't consider myself a climate change sceptic," Letts says. "Like, I suspect, the majority of the population, I don't know what to think about global warming . "Letts said he received a long document from the BBC Trust, condemning him for a "serious" breach of BBC rules. "I was accused of having shown disrespect to climate change." Letts said. The BBC Trust said Letts was not impartial on his program (in other words, his creative perspective on global warming had offended its most ardent followers). The BBC Trust said that they had agreed before the program was launched, that Letts was never to bring up the subject of climate change Letts writes, "Er, hang on, chaps. No one ever told me that. Why on earth would independent journalists accept such a stricture?" [Emphasis added]And that's exactly what is happening. Some immeasurable theory is being turned into a religion that must be believed no matter what. It's these kinds of forceful, Orwellian tactics that make people more skeptical about the theory of global warming and any agenda that is behind it.

Dabu's aunt Er Lu grabs a load of fresh leaves and uses her hands to toss them in a massive wood-fired wok. The tea sizzles and sputters, giving off aromas of wilted greens, caramel, and incense. “She's cooking the leaves for longer than usual,” Dabu says, “to drive out some of the extra humidity. “This time of year, with this much rain, all bets are off,” Dabu goes on, explaining that too much rainfall means there's no guarantee the tea will be any good, and too much moisture in the air means it takes extra skill to dry it properly. “You really have to know how to work with the leaves.” Getting this step right is crucial for good pu-erh. You have to cook the leaves enough to break them down and drive away moisture, but not so much that you completely shut off the enzymes that cause oxidation, as you would if you were making green tea. Processed properly, the tea will slowly oxidize and ferment after it's dried, transforming over the years and decades from a sprightly green into an earthy brown with layers of dried fruit, leather, petrichor. Over time, the fresh top notes of the tea fade into something deeper, almost medicinal. Brackish bitterness becomes a mellow sweetness that lingers in your throat. The brew turns silky in the mouth and its warmth slinks through your body. It's rib-sticking. It's this capacity for aging that's made pu-erh such an object of desire, that's driven prices up a thousandfold over the past couple of decades. Some old-school drinkers in Hong Kong won't even touch the stuff until it's been aged for 10 to 30 years—anything younger is too green, they'll say, too rough on the stomach. The weird thing is, in Yunnan, almost no one ages their tea. Until the pu-erh rush of the past few decades, most locals didn't even know you could age pu-erh. Ask producers today if they have any interest in the stuff and they mostly respond with a shrug. “I prefer tea that's bitter first, then hits you with sweetness later,” one tells me. “Aged pu-erh is only sweet.”

To see the Nikonov in person is an experience in itself. The gun is so far-out and unexpected you find yourself searching for an answer or explanation. You can guess from the visual clues that it’s Russian. The gun is totally utilitarian; its external shape is simply what happened when they covered up the machine that hides within. The AN-94 has no aesthetically pleasing lines – it’s disproportionate and bulky. Any exposed steel surfaces are simply painted black. All surfaces inside and out are crude. There is no polishing and there are no high-performance surface coatings. The weapon is roughly machined steel and plastic casting. The majority of the exterior is heavy polymer molded around a steel skeleton. There are areas inside and out where the skeleton protrudes from the polymer to serve as guide rails and other working surfaces. The construction is similar to the ubiquitous polymer-framed pistol of today. The receiver and forearm are molded as a single unit for simplicity and strength. The Nikonov’s shape does however resemble an AK. The molded top cover is shaped like the AK’s stamped sheet metal top cover. The magazine latch is nearly identical to the AK. The grip’s shape is similar to the AK, but is nearly vertical as the trigger pulls slightly downward rather than swinging up and rearward. The charge handle’s location is where you’d find that of the AK. The side folding stock is basic; made of hollow plastic with a compartment for a cleaning kit. The stock is notably longer than a typical AK stock, so the rifle is a better fit for a larger shooter. The stock folds and locks to the right side of the gun so it does not interfere with the optics mount, but does interfere with operation of the bolt and trigger. The Nikonov will use any magazine intended for the AK-74. One point of interest is the orientation of the magazine; it’s positioned approximately 10 degrees away from vertical, hanging off to the right side of the rifle. The magazine’s unusual position is required to allow for the unique internal workings. The front sight is a post protected by a “TV view” window with night sight ears protruding from the top of the protective hoop. The rear sight is a 5 position rotary aperture, calibrated for 2, 4, 5, 6, and 7 hundred meters.
Even on nice modern ~PCs, actually getting double-precision can be tricky - it's not enough to just write "double" in C - that would be far too simple! Bruce Dawson has a nice round-up of the (extensive) problems - this article is guaranteed to surprise even very experienced coders, so you should read it: https://randomascii.wordpress.com/2012/03/21/intermediate-floating-point-precision/ But let's say you went through all that build agony to get them working, and accepted the speed hit. Really you haven't solved the problem, you've just brushed it under the carpet. Doubles have exactly the same weaknesses as any floating-point representation - variable precision and catastrophic cancellation. All you've done is shuffle the problems into a corner, stuck your fingers in your ears and yelled "lalalalalala". They'll still come back to bite you, and because it's double precision, it'll be even rarer and even harder to track down. And in exchange you've hurt your execution speed and caused build problems. ''Fix it!'' So what's the alternative? Good old fixed-point numbers. They're an old-school technique from before the days of 68881 and 80x87 coprocessors. They're simply integers that you treat as if at some defined place in them is a decimal point - usually expressed as something like "24.8" - which means a 32-bit integer that represents a real-world value with 24 bits of whole value and 8 bits of fraction. So for example the real number X would be represented as the integer (int)(X*256) with appropriate rounding. For general maths, fixed point sounds like a real pain - and I'm not going to lie, it is. I've written raytracers in fixed-point maths, and the constant management of precision really sucks - even with good macro libraries. Float32 is a huge improvement in usability for 99% of maths code. But for absolute position and absolute time, fixed-point works really well. All you ever do with these is subtract one position from another (to produce a float32 delta), or add a (float32) delta to a position. You almost never need to do maths like multiply two positions together - that doesn't even "mean" anything. 64-bit fixed-point integers are supported on pretty much every platform. Even if they're not natively supported, they're easily emulated with things like add-with-carry instructions (and those platforms will have awful float64 support anyway). And fixed-point representations have completely reliable precision.
Russell appears in Sheila Jeffreys’s new book, “Gender Hurts: A Feminist Analysis of the Politics of Transgenderism.” Jeffreys, who is sixty-six, has short silver hair and a weathered face. She has taught at the University of Melbourne for twenty-three years, but she grew up in London, and has been described as the Andrea Dworkin of the U.K. She has written nine previous books, all of which focus on the sexual subjugation of women, whether through rape, incest, pornography, prostitution, or Western beauty norms. Like Dworkin, she is viewed as a heroine by a cadre of like-minded admirers and as a zealot by others. In 2005, in an admiring feature in the Guardian, Julie Bindel wrote, “Jeffreys sees sexuality as the basis of the oppression of women by men, in much the same way as Marx saw capitalism as the scourge of the working class. This unwavering belief has made her many enemies. Postmodern theorist Judith Halberstam once said, ‘If Sheila Jeffreys did not exist, Camille Paglia would have had to invent her.’ ” In eight brisk chapters (half of them written with Jeffreys’s former Ph.D. student Lorene Gottschalk), “Gender Hurts” offers Jeffreys’s first full-length treatment of transgenderism. Ordinarily, Jeffreys told me, she would launch the publication of a new book with an event at the university, but this time campus security warned against it. She has also taken her name off her office door. She gave a talk in London this month, but it was invitation-only. In the book, Jeffreys calls detransitioners like Russell “survivors,” and cites them as evidence that transgenderism isn’t immutable and thus doesn’t warrant radical medical intervention. (She considers gender-reassignment surgery a form of mutilation.) “The phenomenon of regret undermines the idea that there exists a particular kind of person who is genuinely and essentially transgender and can be identified accurately by psychiatrists,” she writes. “It is radically destabilising to the transgender project.” She cites as further evidence the case of Bradley Cooper, who, in 2011, at the age of seventeen, became Britain’s youngest gender-reassignment patient, then publicly regretted his transition the next year and returned to living as a boy. Jeffreys is especially alarmed by doctors in Europe, Australia, and the United States who treat transgender children with puberty-delaying drugs, which prevent them from developing unwanted secondary sex characteristics and can result in sterilization.
"Since riparian rights of indigenous people are covered under UN laws, the ICJ has the mandate to entertain the SYL case the on the request of the people directly", he said.He informed that ICJ was the principal judicial organ of the United Nations which had adjudicated several disputes between the parties from the around world relating to the water rights. The most recent cases decided by the ICJ include Chile vs. Bolivia (2016) and Costa Rica vs. Nicaragua (2015) added he.

The situation around the Debalcevo encirclement by February 11th.1. By February 11th the AFU couldn't unblock the encircled group in the area of Debalcevo. I think that now it is quite possible to separate the Svetlodarsk group of the enemy and the Debalcevo group as two different operational factors.A significant chunk of the M-103 road is subject to shelling by the NAF artillery and mortars in the area of Logvinovo where the NAF started to fortify the positions, the road may also be subjected to action by the armor and to automatic fire.Additional control is provided by sabotage/reconnaissance groups that pop-up towards the road on various locations. In addition, the NAF are mining the area around the road. Under these conditions the communication between the Debalcevo and the Svetlodarsk groups of the enemy is impossible and the cauldron has indeed happened: the massive artillery shelling and the counter-attacks by the infantry and armor encountered the fire control by the NAF and the front attained positional features, which implies a catastrophe for the Debalcevo group. Of course there are certain difficulties for us here too, the enemy, having failed with unblocking the pocket, hammers our positions using artillery, which makes the work on fortifying the lid of this cauldron more difficult. But these are just annoying difficulties.The process of fortifying the NAF positions under Debalcevo.2. By yesterday the signs of disintegration of the military command already became evident (the officers simply flee) and also the reduction of the artillery fire intensity (the enemy started to conserve ammunition). The naziguard units, the MIA, and the AFU units with a high proportion of conscripts will lose morale faster than the other units and this will lead to the increase of the POW flow. The defense will hold on highly motivated punitive troops (not including "Donbass") and the seasoned AFU units, which demonstrated fairly high defensive resilience during January fighting. Actually, it is them who will form the skeleton of the resistance in the pocket. It is not worth underestimating the enemy: in those places where the defense is held by seasoned units with sufficient motivation, we will continue to suffer certain losses, although of course if politics won't intervene, then the enemy resistance will eventually be crushed. http://voicesevas.ru/maps/9754-karta-boevyh-deystviy-v-novorossii-za-11-fevralya-ot-novorus.html — the scalable version3.
On Thursday at 10 A.M. There will be many cheering, and there will be some who fear. Both these emotions are useful, but not too much of either. We are undertaking the most tremendous move ever made by LABOR in this country, a move which will lead--NO ONE KNOWS WHERE! We do not need hysteria. We need the iron march of labor. LABOR WILL FEED THE PEOPLE. Twelve great kitchens have been offered, and from them food will be distributed by the provision trades at low cost to all. LABOR WILL CARE FOR THE BABIES AND THE SICK. The milk- wagon drivers and the laundry drivers are arranging plans for supplying milk to babies, invalids, and hospitals, and taking care of the cleaning of linen for hospitals. LABOR WILL PRESERVE ORDER. The strike committee is arranging for guards, and it is expected that the stopping of the cars will keep people at home. A few hot-headed enthusiasts have complained that strikers only should be fed, and the general public left to endure severe discomfort. Aside from the in-humanitarian character of such suggestions, let them get this straight: NOT THE WITHDRAWAL OF LABOR POWER, BUT THE POWER OF THE STRIKERS TO MANAGE WILL WIN THIS STRIKE. What does Mr. Piez of the Shipping Board care about the closing down of Seattle’s shipyards, or even of all the industries of the northwest? Will it not merely strengthen the yards at Hog Island, in which he is more interested? When the shipyard owners of Seattle were on the point of agreeing with the workers, it was Mr. Piez who wired them that, if they so agreed he would not let them have steel. Whether this is camouflage we have no means of knowing but we do know that the great eastern combinations of capitalists could afford to offer privately to Mr. Skinner, Mr. Ames, and Mr. Duthie a few millions apiece in eastern shipyard stock, RATHER THAN LET THE WORKERS WIN. The closing down of Seattle’s industries, as a MERE SHUTDOWN, will not affect these eastern gentlemen much. They could let the whole northwest go to pieces, as far as money alone is concerned. But, the closing down of the capitalistically controlled industries of Seattle, while the workers organize to feed the people, to care for the babies and the sick, to preserve order--this will move them, for this looks too much like the taking over of power by the workers.

: When you were devising the series, what challenges did you have in building up this version of the Superman universe? : I couldn’t say there were any particular challenges. It was fun. Nobody was telling me what I could or couldn’t do with the characters. I didn’t have to worry about upsetting continuity or annoying people who care about stuff like that. I don’t have a lot of old comics, so my knowledge of Superman was based on memory, some tattered “70s books from the remains of my teenage collection, a bunch of DC “Best Of…” reprint editions and two brilliant little handbooks – “Superman in Action Comics” Volumes 1 and 2 – which reprint every singlecover from 1938 to 1988. I read various accounts of Superman’s creation and development as a brand. I read every Superman story and watched every Superman movie I could lay my hands on, from the Golden Age to the present day. From the Socialist scrapper Superman of the Depression years, through the Super–Cop of the 40s, the mythic Hyper–Dad of the 50s and 60s, the questioning, liberal Superman of the early 70s, the bland “superhero” of the late 70s, the confident yuppie of the 80s, the over–compensating Chippendale Superman of the 90s etc. I read takes on Superman by Mark Waid, Mark Millar, Geoff Johns, Denny O’Neil, Jeph Loeb, Alan Moore, Paul Dini and Alex Ross, Joe Casey, Steve Seagle, Garth Ennis, Jim Steranko and many others. I looked at the Fleischer cartoons, the Chris Reeve movies and the animated series, and read Alvin Schwartz’s (he wrote the first ever Bizarro story among many others) fascinating book – “An Unlikely Prophet” – where he talks about his notion of Superman as a tulpa, (a Tibetan word for a living thought form which has an independent existence beyond its creator) and claims he actually met the Man of Steel in the back of a taxi. I immersed myself in Superman and I tried to find in all of these very diverse approaches the essential “Superman–ness” that powered the engine. I then extracted, purified and refined that essence and drained it into’s tank, recreating characters as my own dream versions, without the baggage of strict continuity. In the end, I saw Superman not as a superhero or even a science fiction character, but as a story of Everyman. We’re all Superman in our own adventures.
His eyes were pits of flame, and they glared at me with what I now saw was overwhelming hatred. The machine droned detestably.“You think those floundering things wiped out the servants? Fool, they are harmless! But the servantsgone, aren’t they? You tried to stop me; you discouraged me when I needed every drop of encouragement I could get; you were afraid of the cosmic truth, you damned coward, but now I’ve got you! What swept up the servants? What made them scream so loud? . . . Don’t know, eh? You’ll know soon enough! Look at me—listen to what I say—do you suppose there are really any such things as time and magnitude? Do you fancy there are such things as form or matter? I tell you, I have struck depths that your little brain can’t picture! I have seen beyond the bounds of infinity and drawn down daemons from the stars. . . . I have harnessed the shadows that stride from world to world to sow death and madness. . . . Space belongs to me, do you hear? Things are hunting me now—the things that devour and dissolve—but I know how to elude them. It is you they will get, as they got the servants. Stirring, dear sir? I told you it was dangerous to move. I have saved you so far by telling you to keep still—saved you to see more sights and to listen to me. If you had moved, they would have been at you long ago. Don’t worry, they won’tyou. They didn’t hurt the servants—it wasthat made the poor devils scream so. My pets are not pretty, for they come out of places where aesthetic standards are—Disintegration is quite painless, I assure you—butI almost saw them, but I knew how to stop. You are not curious? I always knew you were no scientist! Trembling, eh? Trembling with anxiety to see the ultimate things I have discovered? Why don’t you move, then? Tired? Well, don’t worry, my friend,. . . . Look! Look, curse you, look! . . . It’s just over your left shoulder. . . .”What remains to be told is very brief, and may be familiar to you from the newspaper accounts. The police heard a shot in the old Tillinghast house and found us there—Tillinghast dead and me unconscious.
Key oil figures were distorted by US pressure, says whistleblower The world is much closer to running out of oil than official estimates admit, according to a whistleblower at the International Energy Agency who claims it has been deliberately underplaying a looming shortage for fear of triggering panic buying. The senior official claims the US has played an influential role in encouraging the watchdog to underplay the rate of decline from existing oil fields while overplaying the chances of finding new reserves. The allegations raise serious questions about the accuracy of the organisation's latest World Energy Outlook on oil demand and supply to be published tomorrow – which is used by the British and many other governments to help guide their wider energy and climate change policies. In particular they question the prediction in the last World Economic Outlook, believed to be repeated again this year, that oil production can be raised from its current level of 83m barrels a day to 105m barrels. External critics have frequently argued that this cannot be substantiated by firm evidence and say the world has already passed its peak in oil production. Now the "peak oil" theory is gaining support at the heart of the global energy establishment. "The IEA in 2005 was predicting oil supplies could rise as high as 120m barrels a day by 2030 although it was forced to reduce this gradually to 116m and then 105m last year," said the IEA source, who was unwilling to be identified for fear of reprisals inside the industry. "The 120m figure always was nonsense but even today's number is much higher than can be justified and the IEA knows this. "Many inside the organisation believe that maintaining oil supplies at even 90m to 95m barrels a day would be impossible but there are fears that panic could spread on the financial markets if the figures were brought down further. And the Americans fear the end of oil supremacy because it would threaten their power over access to oil resources," he added. A second senior IEA source, who has now left but was also unwilling to give his name, said a key rule at the organisation was that it was "imperative not to anger the Americans" but the fact was that there was not as much oil in the world as had been admitted. "We have [already] entered the 'peak oil' zone. I think that the situation is really bad," he added.
The group was largely pulled together by Frank Barnett, Dan McMichael (Dick [Richard Mellon] Scaife’s man), Mike Joyce (Olin Foundation), Les Lenkowsky (Smith Richardson Foundation) plus Leonard Sussman and Leo Cherne of Freedom House. A number of others including Roy Godson have also participated. ” [Everything above in parentheses is in the original]. @s6 Elsewhere, Raymond described Cherne and Godson as the coordinators of this group. Frank Barnett was the director of the Bush family’s National Strategy Information Center, for which Godson was the Washington, D.C. director. Barnett had been the project director of the Smith Richardson Foundation prior to being assigned to that post. The Smith Richardson Foundation has sunk millions of dollars into the Iran-Contra projects. Some Smith Richardson grantees, receiving money since the establishment of the National Security Council’s “private steering committee” (according to the foundation’s annual reports) include the following: Freedom House. This was formed by Leo Cherne, business partner of CIA Director William Casey. Cherne oversaw Walter Raymond’s “private donor’s committee.” National Strategy Information Center, founded in 1962 by Casey, Cherne and the Bush family (see Chapter 4). Thus, when an item appeared in a daily newspaper, supporting the Contras, or attacking their opponents–calling them “extremists,” etc.–it is likely to have been planted by the U.S. government, by the George Bush-NSC “private donors”’ apparatus. March 17, 1983: Professional assassinations manager Felix I. Rodriguez met with Bush aide Donald P. Gregg, officially and secretly, at the White House. Gregg then recommended to National Security Council adviser Robert “ Bud ” McFarlane a plan for El Salvador-based military attacks on a target area of Central American nations including Nicaragua. Gregg’s March 17, 1983 memo to McFarlane said: “ The attached plan, written in March of last year, grew out of two experiences: “–Anti-Vietcong operations run under my direction in III Corps Vietnam from 1970-1972. These operations [see below], based on … a small elite force … produced very favorable results. “–Rudy Enders, who is now in charge of what is left of the para-military capability of the CIA, went to El Salvador in 1981 to do a survey and develop plans for effective anti-guerrilla operations. He came back and endorsed the attached plan. (I should add that Enders and Felix Rodriguez, who wrote the attached plan, both worked for me in Vietnam and carried out the actual operations outlined above.) “This plan encountered opposition and skepticism from the U.S. military….
A $4 million lawsuit has been filed against the Kappa Alpha Psi fraternity, its Baltimore Alumni Chapter and five of its leaders on accusations that they allowed and participated in hazing, despite Maryland's anti-hazing laws.Dedric Rogers, Kenneth Pough, Jose Biaz, Tyree Williams, Mark Briggs, their fraternity and the Baltimore Alumni Chapter have all been accused in a civil lawsuit by Johnny Powell II, a former fraternity pledge, of hazing, false imprisonment, negligence and gross negligence.A cease-and-desist order has been placed against the Baltimore Alumni Chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi.Powell was a junior at the time of the hazing and played varsity volleyball at Stevenson University. Officials said Powell had been trying to start a chapter of the Kappa Alpha Psi fraternity at Stevenson and was pledging through Coppin State University to do so.The lawsuit was filed Tuesday in Prince George's County because the victim's lawyers said the hazing occurred during the nights and early mornings between February and March 2013 at Rogers' Fort Washington house during the spring membership intake process.According to the lawsuit, four of the five men punched, hit, slapped, caned and paddled Powell and three other pledges if they didn't run errands or do certain exercises correctly. The lawsuit alleged that Rogers forced Powell to stand in a bucket of ice water while he and other members poured salt in it. It also says the defendants made Powell drink alcohol, they poured it on him and they poured garlic powder in his mouth.The lawsuit states Biaz twisted a cork bottle opener into the victim's hand as he was made to recite information, the lawsuit said, and Powell was forced to do pushups with pointy bottle caps under his hands.Powell hospitalized, threatenedPowell's lawyer, Jimmy Bell, said the Stevenson student wanted to quit but was threatened that the hazing would get worse for the other three men pledging with him if he did so. Powell was eventually admitted for a five-day stay at Franklin Square Hospital for injuries he suffered due to the abuse.Bell claimed that Powell's aunt called campus security at Coppin, but they "blew her off." Powell returned to Stevenson and contacted officials there. He got an apology from Pough after reporting the abuse.
Jumpers tend to idealize what will happen after they step off the bridge. “Suicidal people have transformation fantasies and are prone to magical thinking, like children and psychotics,” Dr. Lanny Berman, the executive director of the American Association of Suicidology, says. “Jumpers are drawn to the Golden Gate because they believe it’s a gateway to another place. They think that life will slow down in those final seconds, and then they’ll hit the water cleanly, like a high diver.” In the four-second fall from the bridge, survivors say, time does seem to slow. On her way down in 1979, Ann McGuire said to herself, “I must be about to hit,” three times. But the impact is not clean: the coroner’s usual verdict, suicide caused by “multiple blunt-force injuries,” euphemizes the devastation. Many people don’t look down first, and so those who jump from the north end of the bridge hit the land instead of the water they saw farther out. Jumpers who hit the water do so at about seventy-five miles an hour and with a force of fifteen thousand pounds per square inch. Eighty-five per cent of them suffer broken ribs, which rip inward and tear through the spleen, the lungs, and the heart. Vertebrae snap, and the liver often ruptures. “It’s as if someone took an eggbeater to the organs of the body and ground everything up,” Ron Wilton, a Coast Guard officer, once observed. Those who survive the impact usually die soon afterward. If they go straight in, they plunge so deeply into the water—which reaches a depth of three hundred and fifty feet—that they drown. (The rare survivors always hit feet first, and at a slight angle.) A number of bodies become trapped in the eddies stirred by the bridge’s massive stone piers, and sometimes wash up as far away as the Farallon Islands, about thirty miles off. These corpses suffer from “severe marine depredation”—shark attacks and, particularly, the attentions of crabs, which feed on the eyeballs first, then the loose flesh of the cheeks. Already this year, two bodies have vanished entirely.
I thought surely a researcher of your experience would easily get to the bottom of this and see that the allegations made in the smear campaigns were not only false but well planned out to possibly derail this book project. I can’t say how completely disappointed I was to receive your email the next morning not only pulling out of the project but also using a single Google search with the key words used in the slander campaign as your basis for “research”. This Google search only brought up the existing hit piece I referenced in our early email exchanges I had warned you about. My admiration of your research skills and integrity were challenged in that moment. I was crushed and humiliated but I accepted it and responded with maturity and sensitivity regarding the issue and also your needs to be removed from any mention of this book. I had no interest in making any public mention about this as I knew your reasoning to pull out was most likely about dodging a very ugly bullet regarding the slander pieces being put out. I knew by not saying anything it would make me look worse in the public eye but it felt out of integrity to bring you into this any further so I chose to leave it…….. Until I saw your continued stance publicly that felt to me very misleading. I also am witnessing your statements causing a great divide in our community. This is why I am writing this open letter now. I will close this letter with some very simple questions I think would serve to clarify this situation. 1. Were you ever in communication with myself regarding your interest in being a part of a collaborative book involving Corey Goode, William Tompkins, Dr. Salla and Dr. Wood? 2. Did you loose interest in this project because of the recent hit pieces put out about myself and others mentioned above? 3. Did you ever feel threatened, manipulated or intimidated by the “Journalist” behind the attacks or by any other source? 4. Out of the topics I shared with you in privacy regarding the content of this book, “a case for the secret space program”, why do you think their has been such an organized effort to derail this project? My hope is that this public query will serve to soften the infighting going on in this moment around the subject.
For those of us that worship at the altar of science, this serves as a welcome reminder that science is only as good as those conducting it. Bias is omnipresent and omnidirectional and it is something we must always be vigilant against. For instance, cited in the open letter is the fact that the APA previously stated as a matter of policy that violent games should see a reduced exposure to children and that the APA had already made recommendations to the gaming industry about exactly how violence should be portrayed in games, specifically suggesting that real-world consequences should be visited upon violent actors in digital media.In other words, as the letter states, the APA task force essentially reached the conclusion that the APA's previous work and recommendations were on point, using a hand-picked team comprised of researchers perfectly biased to reach just that conclusion. Adding to the letter's concern over some of the sloppy methodology for drawing the task force's conclusions is the kind of simple real-world analysis of data that has me wondering just how any of this made it past the APA's review to begin with.In other words, at the exact moment that the APA suggests violence and video games are linked, and at the exact moment that violent video games have exploded in popularity and dissemination, violence amongst youth (and the general public) is. One would think that if a link existed, we might see some evidence of it outside of ham-fisted studies utilizing questionable methodologies.But, alas, this is the way of things. And you should expect this to continue, probably right up to the point when most of the research of this issue is being done by a generation in which gaming was prevalent in their youth. Then the studies will likely show something more interesting than a self-created echo-chamber of moral outrage.
If the case is won, this could make the final penalty for Monsanto upwards of $7.5 billion.Monsanto has indicated that it plans to continue collecting fees and charging taxes until the courts issue their final ruling on the matter. But this ruling is not expected to be issued until 2014, which means it will be business as usual for Monsanto.

Someone sends me a suggestion, and they say “This would be really good” and I don’t like it, I don’t want to do it myself, I say “Make it yourself. Make it yourself and if it’s good, we’ll put it in.”It’s open source. Anybody can go online and download the GH modules, look at my code, they can reupload it themselves, they can change what I did. Like, it’s there, it’s available for people to do that. So I think it’ll keep growing, and I think there’s a lot more things that we can do, but I just can’t afford it.In fact, I’ve got bills to pay, and I’ve pretty much been working on this full time. And you could say “Yeah, well why don’t you just work on this in your free time?” Well, I don’t know what I’m gonna be doing. And I mean, I am gonna have to keep updating logos and so. That’s already free time spoken for, because I get a lot of logo submissions, constantly. Yeah, I think that’s just the main challenge, finding a way to pay my bills but keep improving it and working on it, and I just don’t think it’s possible.A: Well, I don’t really feel like GH does have any competitors. Like, there’s the Proleague interface, but they don’t let anyone else use it, so it’s no tike it’s a real competitor. And I mean, I dunno if what they’re doing really makes sense on a grander scale. Like everyone goes “Why didn’t you implement logos the same way PL does, we like that so much better.” And I’m like “Proleague only has to support 8 teams. And they can tell those 8 teams exactly what to do with their logos when they submit them.” I have to deal with 250 teams, so my system has to be a lithe bit more versatile. So that’s that.But as far as competitors? Like, MIT Overseer, that would have been a competitor, but it doesn’t make a huge amount of sense to try and topple GH at the moment. It’s not like they’re going to make lots of money off of it or something. What makes sense is when you’re trying to create tools is to find the best way to get the most people to use them.

Laws in the city already attempt to ban all outdoor meals from groups, like Food Not Bombs, which serve up to half of the city’s 1,000 homeless people. Another notorious law literally bans even the giving of a cookie to any member of the “public” without a city permit. According to the manager for the City’s Human Services Division, “[…] groups [that] continue to sponsor these [feeding] programs [run] counter to the policy that the City has been trying to promote.” #10 Flagstaff, AZ Soon anyone camping or sleeping in a car or in public within the Flagstaff city limits may be subject to trespassing and camping violations, totaling up to $2,500 in fines and six months in jail time. The current ordinance’s wording only allows prosecution of people arrested in city parks. City Attorney Patricia Boomsma supports the new, stricter ordinance, because “[…] prosecutors need to prosecute the person actually doing the camping.” The proposed ordinance aims to eliminate litter, human waste, and illicit campfires. According to Flagstaff chief of police, J.T. McCann, the ordinance is intended to promote public safety. However, local service providers, such as Stephanie Boardman of Hope Cottage, believe these ordinances are counter-productive, especially to the domestic violence victims that Hope Cottage takes in. Boardman said, “A lot of them are embarrassed to go to shelters. They just want their freedom. You penalize the people in crisis because 10, 15, 20 people are really causing an upheaval.” While Flagstaff law enforcement officials have written 162 citations for camping, all charges were dropped because camping is not yet illegal in the city. #11 San Francisco, CA After responding to complaints of homeless people loitering outside the San Francisco Public Library, the police decided to provide homeless individuals, unhappy living in the city, with one-way bus tickets. The plan would “reunite them with loved ones for the holidays.” The Police Department recommended coordination with the bus companies and local businesses to fund tickets, along with boxed lunches. L.S. Wilson, coordinator for the Coalition on Homelessness, believed that such a plan would only give the police an opportunity to harass homeless people. “If they need a one-way ticket out of here and they can get it, good, but it’s saying they can’t come back.
Effective with the second quarter of 2013 and on a prospective basis, wireless machine-to-machine (M2M) subscribers have been removed from the subscriber base to align with emerging industry practice. Cumulative subscriber connections include an April 1, 2013 opening balance adjustment to remove approximately 76,000 M2M subscribers. Effective with the fourth quarter of 2013, and on a prospective basis, we have adjusted postpaid wireless subscribers to remove Mike(R) subscribers, as we have ceased marketing the Mike product and started to turn down the iDEN network. Cumulative subscriber connections include an October 1, 2013 adjustment to remove from the postpaid wireless subscriber base approximately 94,000 Mike subscribers, representing those who, in our judgment, are unlikely to migrate to our new services.

By changing the behavior of the restoring force we can define the properties of the object. A weak force will result in a rubbery or stretchy material, a strong force will give a rigid or solid material.APC takes a unique approach when it comes to rotation. Most physics engines will determine the torque based on center of mass and body topology. In APC the total mass and the center of mass. There is in fact only one aggregate value used, the total torque of all interacting particles. The torque is averaged and applied to a global angular velocity for the body. This angular velocity is then applied to all join vectors in the next frame, resulting in stable rotation of the body.All the weird and wonderful things you can do in APC are derived from these principles. « Last Edit: June 09, 2018, 06:54:43 PM by AaronB » Logged Aaron's Particle Space
Vihari Poddar, wife of textile tycoon Abhishek Poddar, director of Siyaram Silk Mills, was arrested on Thursday for trying to smuggle in jewellery worth Rs. 2.35 crore.VihariPoddar, who is managing director of the Singapore-based Vihari Jewels Pvt Ltd, was detained at Mumbai's Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport on Tuesday night after she landed from a Singapore flight.According to the Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (DRI) officials, Vihari was passing through the green channel with the undeclared diamond-studded gold jewellery, which she has stuffed inside her underclothes.The official told that Vihari's arrest was a part of the joint operation of DRI and the Directorate of Vigilance. Following Vihari's detention, the agencies also carried out search in her shops at the Grand Hyatt hotel in Santacruz and recovered more jewellery worth Rs. 4 crore.During interrogation, Vihari has also confessed to have made about ten such trips in the past and having smuggled gold and diamond jewellery.A metropolitan magistrate court on Thursday remanded Vihari to 14-days judicial custody.According to sources, two jewellery shops owned by Vihari Sheth have been sealed following the haul. The Department of Revenue Intelligence (DRI) officials were aided by the air intelligence unit in uncovering the smuggled articles.A graduate gemology diploma holder from California-based Gemological Institute of America, Vihari married with Abhishek Poddar, director of Siyaram Silk Mills on May 4, 2011.Her father, an influential businessman in Singapore, also owns shops at the Far East Shopping Centre on Orchard Road, a high-profile shopping enclave and tourist hub in Singapore.The case is quite similar to the arrest of socialite Sheetal Mafatlal, who was held in 2009 for travelling with undeclared jewellery. The president of Mafatlal Luxury had been arrested under the Indian Customs Act after the recovery of jewellery worth over Rs 1 crore from her.
My wife. Was diagnosed with cancer when she was forty years old. She beat it. Every day every day. She lives with it except. Every pain. Every knew something going on somewhere it's coming back. Is this cancer to have it again is gonna kill me it is time to get take me away from my children. Speaking of which children. Both have preexisting conditions from birth when cardiac when thyroid. You have the Ian. The single greatest threats to my family. In the entire world. You are the reason I stay up at night. You are the reason that I can't sleep. What happens if I lose my job I'm very fortunate there I have a really good job and I really good health insurance and we could all be a bit have. Peace of mind. But now my wife. Every day. Is wondering if she's get a get cancer is it happening now. But what about now. Now also has to contend with what my husband loses his job. If I lose my job we could. Next up fourth the Oprah. We can't afford to get private insurance we get it from my employer. If I lose that good spot if I lose my dog on a Monday if I'm lucky enough to find its but to think which never happens. They want not have insurance ready for me I would not be eligible for three to six months. If by lapse might coverage within 63 days. Suddenly. I'm and a high risk pool. My preexisting conditions which I don't give a (%expletive) about build up to me come out to me I don't care but you came after mind. Why the you came after kids. I have sympathy for your mother. I have sympathy for your daughter. You did not learn the lessons they were trying to teach you because if it's quite a few days. It can put its. Bid. Good luck didn't drink.

Of the populations that don't do it's. You did it. That's bad it's correct when he said that you brought it back from death. Ryan said its debt trump said its debt. And you said no. I got a better idea.
Also Denmark was always a good country, but it started winning a lot of medals with the NoA/mTw team in 2007. Two great years for the Danes. Obviously 2008, the mTw year, with 8 medals. And 2010 with 9 medals, still thanks to a really strong mTw squad, but also with medals from Ravens and Full Gaming.4.Germany (9-12-20 : 41)With Sweden, Germany is the only country that won medals every year of CS. The best year for the Germans was 2008 with 8 medals, thanks to the great mousesports team and a pretty good ALTERNATE squad. Otherwise, it's really spread on all the years, showing that no German team really dominated for a long time, gathering tons of medals in one year. And oddly, almost half of Germany's medals are made of bronze. Some are more serious than others about 3rd place finals...5.Ukraine (9-11-13 : 33)That is a young country on the scene. Ukraine had to wait 2007 to earn its first medal, a bronze at WCG. And then it started for good. Obviously Na'Vi contributed a lot to that total : 20 medals won during 2010+2011. 2010 was the best year with 11 medals, Ukraine being the only country (with Sweden of course) to reach a double digits number during just one year.6.Norway (8-6-6 : 20)And now an old country. It almost seems that Ukraine replaced Norway on the CS map, because the last year when Norway won a medal was 2007, the year Ukraine got its first. Until 2006, Norway was the 2nd best country title-wise. And you can also add that XeqtR, DarK and elemeNt won a lot of medals for Sweden teams, which doesn't count on that ranking. Best year : 2005 with 7 medals, 3 titles, team9, Catch-Gamer, NoA. And after 2007, blank.7.USA (6-8-9 : 23)Almost the same story here. 4th country medal-wise until 2006. Pretty consistent throughout the years. coL, 3D, Rival. ESWC, WCG and CPL titles. And then CGS came in 2007 and USA got a neat 0-0-0 that year. Then the Americains managed to grab some more medals thanks to EG and coL. But 2011 was a blank year again and it looks like it's definitive that time. Anyway USA is the first non-european country in the list, it remembers us that CS used to be a big USA vs Europe thing in the early days.8.Brazil (6-2-3 : 11)The Brazilians prefer the gold.
Through a last-minute partnership between the Humane Society of the United States and The Pegasus Foundation, the Cape Wildlife Center will not close on Nov. 18 as previously announced. The Barnstable-based facility will remain open in a limited capacity until March 1 to offer emergency and rehabilitation treatment to animals in need, the HSUS and Pegasus Foundation announced Friday . The foundation is an animal-welfare-focused charity partially supported by advocate and philanthropist Barbara Birdsey. The extension will also allow the center and other agencies to develop a long-term plan to continue servicing Cape animals.

Maybe that changes starting today,” Wayne Pacelle, president and CEO of the HSUS, said in a statement. Pacelle said the center’s operations budget is between $700,000-$750,000 and it receives about $100,000 in donations, the Cape Cod Times reported . The Cape Wildlife Center treats around 1,500 animals, ranging from birds and fowl to otters and foxes, each year and is the only wildlife rehab center on the Cape. Wild Care in Eastham treats small animals and birds. Related Articles Humane Society Moving shelters OSPCA raids Humane Society Humane Society raided
But for me, music is about expressing the unexpressable, and as I get older, man, what I feel the need to express becomes less and less poignant to others. It’s a shame. When people are like, “Nothing you’ve done is as good as you did when you were younger.” And I’m like, “You may be right.” But what I’m doing now is exactly what I feel like I should be doing. So what do you do? Do you go write a fucking pop song and cash in and then spend the rest of your life thinking, “I could have stuck to my guns but instead I sucked a cock…”
