What is self love? It's been bandied about as a catchy tagline by the health and wellness press for quite some time now. But what does it even mean?
I believe self love is best described by the dictionary definition : "regard for one's own well-being and happiness (chiefly considered as a desirable rather than narcissistic characteristic)". It sounds really weird to spend time focusing on one's own happiness; maybe appearing a little selfish. But it isn't. Practicing effective self love means you then have the increased mental and emotional capacity to extend that love and wellbeing to those around you. Now that's special.
Each person's idea of self love is different based on their own set of circumstances and lifestyle. I don't do it enough (my better half is much more in tune; he meditates, enjoys yoga as well as reading and listening to music in his limited downtime). It goes without saying that decent nutrition and exercise play a big part in my self love but I really appreciate a lovely long soak in the bath as well as naps at the weekend to recharge my batteries.
Spend a little time during the day reading, listening to or watching material that uplifts you and maybe teaches you a thing or two.
Take a long bath, or practise a relaxing beauty regime. It's a great way to unwind at the end of a long day. Once in a while a lovely glass of red wine helps destress too :).
If your day isn't going the way you want it to, then take one small step towards something positive to breathe positivity into your week. Good ideas for this are to schedule time with friends, get into a new hobby or think about ways to grow your career. Or book a vacation, that always helps!
5-10 minutes of laughter in the middle of your day can make a massive difference. I love comedy podcasts that I listen to every day on my phone. Also my kids and dog make my laugh every day without fail.
You can certainly get an Amen, since we are commanded to "love your brother as you love yourself" which means you have to "love yourself" first, otherwise love for "your brother" will be deficient.
This post is so timely for me. Thank you. This stuff is so simple, yet many of us have a hard time fitting in these valuable practices. Some see it as selfish but you can't save a person from drowning if you yourself can seem to stay above water.
I plan to start today by setting aside time each day for breathing, meditation, stretching, and other relaxing activities.

OXFORD, Ohio -- The Ohio football team (6-4, 4-2 MAC) battled back in the second half but could not overcome a 21-point halftime deficit, falling to Mid-American Conference archrival Miami (4-6-, 4-2 MAC), 30-28, tonight in the Battle of the Bricks at Yager Stadium.
The loss snapped a three-game winning streak for the Bobcats.
Redshirt senior running back A.J. Ouellette (Covington, Ohio) ran for a career-high 168 yards on 15 attempts for Ohio, averaging 11.2 yards per carry. Ouellette posted his second 100-yard performance in the last three games and 11th of his career, with the latter ranking as the seventh-most in program history.
Junior quarterback Nathan Rourke (Oakville, Ontario, Canada) went 16-of-27 for 163 yards and two touchdown passes. Redshirt senior wide receiver Papi White (Seminole, Okla.) caught a team-high five passes for a team-high 44 yards and hauled in a touchdown reception -- his team-high eighth of the season. Redshirt senior wide receiver Andrew Meyer (Canal Winchester, Ohio) caught three passes for 34 yards and tallied his fourth touchdown reception in the last six games.
Ohio scored on its opening drive for the second game in a row, jumping out to a quick 7-0 lead. The Bobcats picked up all 74 of their yards on the ground, with a season-long run of 58 yards by Ouellette setting Ohio up with a 1st-and-goal at the Miami seven yard line. Three plays later, redshirt senior running back Maleek Irons (Chilliwack, British Columbia, Canada) ran it into the end zone from three yards out to put the Bobcats in front. Irons scored his career-high seventh touchdown of the year.
The RedHawks responded with a touchdown on their first drive of the contest. Redshirt senior quarterback Gus Ragland completed passes on back-to-back third downs to help Miami move the ball to the Ohio three. He found redshirt junior Luke Mayock for a gain of 33 yard on 3rd-and-4, then completed a 17-yard pass to Mayock on 3rd-and-11. On the next play, redshirt senior running back Alonzo Smith scored a three-yard rushing touchdown to help Miami even the score.
Miami took a 14-7 lead with 11:12 left in the second quarter, engineering a 12-play, 71-yard drive that ended with redshirt senior running back Kenny Young running it in from 16 yards out. An 18-yard completion from Ragland to redshirt senior wide receiver Jack Sorenson helped set up the score.
After forcing the Bobcats to punt, the RedHawks extended their lead to 21-7. Ragland threw a 12-yard touchdown pass to Mayock to cap off an eight-play, 66-yard drive.
On Ohio's next drive, Rourke completed a 23-yard pass to redshirt freshman wide receiver Isiah Cox (Jasper, Ala.), but redshirt senior linebacker Brad Koening forced a fumble that was recovered by junior linebacker Myles Reid, who returned it 13 yards to give Miami the ball at the Ohio 48. Ragland then completed passes of 19 yards to redshirt junior tight end Nate Becker and 21 yards to Young to set up an eight-yard touchdown run by Smith and helping the RedHawks take a 28-7 lead into halftime.
After its opening drive of the game, Ohio was limited to just 69 yards the rest of the first half.
After the two teams traded punts on the first two drives of the second half, the Ohio defense came up with a big play. Redshirt sophomore linebacker Jared Dorsa (Kings Mills, Ohio) intercepted Ragland and returned the pick three yards to give Ohio possession at the Miami 46. A nine-yard pass from Rourke to Odom and a 10-yard run by Irons gave the Bobcats a first down at the Miami 27. On 2nd-and-20, Rourke ran for a gain of 12 yards, then picked up six more yards on third down to set up a 4th-and-2 from the 19. Ohio went for it, and Rourke found White for a gain of 10 to give the Bobcats a fresh set of downs. On 3rd-and-goal, Rourke spotted White in the corner of the end zone, who came down with a spectacular juggling touchdown reception to make it a two-score game. The touchdown catch marked the 18th of White's career, which tied him with LaVon Brazill (18; 2007-11) for third-most in program history.
The Bobcats forced the RedHawks to punt again on the next drive. A 46-yard run by Ouellette on the first play of Ohio's ensuing drive put the ball on the Miami 25. The drive stalled though, and redshirt junior kicker Louie Zervos (Tarpon Springs, Fla.) came on to attempt a 29-yard field goal. His try missed wide left however, allowing Miami to maintain a 28-14 lead with just over 14 minutes to go.
Ohio's defense clamped down on Miami's next drive and forced the RedHawks to punt it away once again. Redshirt junior punter Kyle Kramer could not cleanly get the punt off, though, and Dorsa blocked the attempted kick. Redshirt sophomore linebacker Dylan Conner (Fort Wayne, Ind.) was there to scoop up the loose ball and return it 28 yards for a touchdown to make it a seven-point contest. The Bobcats turned a blocked punt into a touchdown return for the second week in a row.
The Bobcats forced Miami to punt yet again on the next drive, but this time Kramer produced a 47-yard punt that went out of bounds at the Ohio one-yard line. Ohio was unable to get out of the shadow of its own end zone, and Rourke was flushed out of the pocket and forced to step out of the end zone by Miami junior defensive lineman Doug Costin, which resulted in a safety that allowed the RedHawks to extend their lead to 30-21 with just under six minutes remaining.
The RedHawks punted again on the ensuing drive. The Bobcats then marched 80 yards in seven plays and 2:16, with passes of 13 yards to Meyer and 22 yards to White by Rourke moving the ball to the Miami 38. Two plays later, a personal foul penalty on Miami redshirt sophomore linebacker Cam Turner advanced the ball 15 more yards. Rourke then hit Meyer for an 18-yard touchdown two plays later to help make it a two-point game with 2:22 to go.
Miami recovered an onside kick attempt by redshirt junior punter/kicker Michael Farkas (Mishawaka, Ind.) but gave the ball back to the Bobcats with 30 seconds left. Rourke completed a 19-yard pass to Ouellette to set up a Hail Mary attempt by redshirt junior quarterback Quinton Maxwell (Rayville, Mo.) from Ohio's 45 yard line, but his desperation heave was off the mark and the game ended with a two-point loss for the Bobcats.
Defensively, Ohio was led by redshirt senior safety Kylan Nelson (Lexington, Ky.) and senior linebacker Evan Croutch (Youngstown, Ohio), who each finished with nine total tackles to tie for the team lead. Croutch recorded two sacks. Redshirt junior safety Javon Hagan (Jacksonville, Fla.) recorded eight total tackles. In addition to his interception and blocked punt, Dorsa recorded seven total tackles.
Ragland finished 20-of-32 for 199 yards, a touchdown and an interception for Miami. Smith ran for 94 yards on 20 attempts and scored two rushing touchdowns. Young ran for 37 yards and a touchdown on seven touches and also caught a team-high seven passes for a team-high 67 yards for the RedHawks.
Ohio returns to Peden Stadium next Wednesday (Nov. 14) to host Buffalo. The contest will kickoff at 7 p.m. and will be nationally televised on ESPN2. It will be Faculty & Staff Night at Peden Stadium, with Ohio University faculty and staff members receiving free admission to the game.

Giants look to maintain high level of play in NFC East
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. – Joe Judge strongly believes his team is improving as it prepares to play a game that could improbably move them closer to serious contention for the NFC East title.
The Giants have won two of their last four games, beating the Washington Football team by a combined four points, including a 23-20 triumph yesterday in FedExField. Between the two triumphs, they lost to Philadelphia and Tampa Bay by one and two points, respectively. And just before that quartet of games began, they fell in Dallas on a final-play field goal.
On Sunday, the 2-7 Giants will host a rematch against the division-leading 3-4-1 Eagles, against whom they had an 11-point lead with five minutes remaining on Oct. 22.
"There is no reason we can't continue to play at a high level," Judge said on a Zoom call Monday. "I love the improvement we're seeing. The young guys are really coming along. There are a lot of encouraging things we're seeing from the guys that are rookies or new guys to this program, and we're getting a lot of production from a lot of guys."
The group includes a sizeable group of rookies making important and consistent contributions – offensive linemen Andrew Thomas, Shane Lemieux and Matt Peart; nickel corner Darnay Holmes; linebackers Cam Brown, Carter Coughlin, TJ Brunson and Tae Crowder (who has been on injured reserve since scoring the deciding touchdown in the first Washington game); wide receiver Austin Mack (Giants season-long 50-yard catch yesterday); and cornerback Madre Harper (who recovered a fumble that set up a touchdown).
"I think there's a lot of clips in these last few games that you can see that we can say this is the style we want to play as an offense, defense and special teams moving forward," Judge said. "That doesn't mean the game plan is exactly the same. We want to keep making sure we have an emphasis in terms of ball security, number one, limiting penalties and knocking mental errors off the plate. I like the way we're playing aggressively on offense. I like the tempo we're playing with. That's not always going to be part of the game plan. Sometimes we may slow it down. I like the last few games, our ability to work some tempo. I like how we're running the ball and that's setting up some plays down the field in the passing game. I like how we're covering kicks right now. We've been able to make plays in the return game, as well. That's shown up in the last few weeks. We're definitely improving in that area.
"Defensively, I see a lot of improvement with the situations, whether it be third down, red area or two-minute. That's improvement. That's something we've placed an emphasis with our team that we have to continue to improve on. We've seen a lot of really good players, good offenses in the first part of the season. We have to keep on improving, as we keep on going through because they're going to keep on getting better and better."

In a normal season, a team that has played more than half of its games and won only two of them would not be contenders for a division crown. But this is no ordinary season in the NFC East, where the Eagles spent their bye week perched in first place with a 3-4-1 record. The Giants, who have been close in almost every game but defeated only Washington, can take a big step toward the top when they host the Eagles.
"It's definitely strange," said leading tackler and defensive captain Blake Martinez. "But the NFL is crazy. Anyone can beat anyone. Anyone can be in it at any time. You just kind of go with it week by week, make the improvements necessary and see how kind of the dice falls. It's one of those situations where you see what we've been through this whole season, and to know that we still have a shot and we still have the opportunity right in front of us to do what we need to do, it's an awesome feeling. As a competitor, you love it."
"Obviously, it's a big game," guard Kevin Zeitler said. "We know where we're at, we know where the division is at. Every win in the division is a big thing."
Especially when you're 2-7 and still running the race.
*Wide receiver Golden Tate returned to the team today. He did not travel to Washington and was inactive for the game.
"He was back in there with us today, working," Judge said. "We're not going to have the players in the building tomorrow, but they'll be able to come in to work out. Then Wednesday, we'll be on the field for practice, so he'll definitely be out there practicing with us. Like all of our players, we're going to have plans for these guys within the game plan. If you're asking me specifically about him being active for the game, I would anticipate Golden being active. I have no reason to believe he wouldn't be active at this point. But we're going to go through this week and kind of see how everything goes with everybody on the team and see where everything lays out."
*The Giants must make decisions on some players who are on their practice squad and injured reserve.
Running back Alfred Morris, who rushed for 67 yards yesterday, has been added to the roster with "standard elevations" each of the last two weeks. That is the limit on such moves for each player. Morris reverted to the practice squad today. If the Giants want to suit him up again, they must sign him to the 53-man roster.
Guard Chad Slade has been added to roster from the practice squad three times, the last two as a COVID-19 replacement for Will Hernandez. The Giants have one free move remaining with him.
Slade played three snaps yesterday, his first regular-season action since Dec. 31, 2017, when he started at right guard for the Houston Texans at Indianapolis.
*The players on injured reserve who are candidates to return to the field are safety Xavier McKinney, the second-round draft choice who has been sidelined all season with a foot injury, and linebackers Tae Crowder and Oshane Ximines. When they begin practicing, it begins a 21-day period during which the Giants must activate them or keep them on I.R. for the remainder of the season.
"We'll approach a lot of different things this week in terms of our roster with a lot of different players," Judge said. "Over these next few weeks, we expect several guys to have the opportunity. We don't know where they are physically yet. We start their clocks off the I.R., they will be coming off the clocks on I.R., so we have to check and see what our total roster is in terms of that. There's a lot of things with that that are going to factor in."
McKinney underwent surgery after he was injured in training camp. He has attended meetings all season but has yet to step on the field. Might he this week?
"That's still up in the air," Judge said. "I don't know if we will necessarily see him this week. He was on the field the other day running with the trainers. I haven't had much of a chance with my own eyes to really get my eyes on him. I know he's making a lot of progress. I'm getting positive reports on him. We have until Wednesday. He'll be with the trainers tomorrow, and that may shed a little bit more light on it for us. Based on how we practice Wednesday, if we go full tilt or some kind of an abbreviated walk thru, or short fundamentals practice, we haven't decided yet. That may affect whether or not we start his clock on that day or not."
Another factor in these decisions is the Giants' bye week is after the game against Philadelphia.
"With Oshane and Tae, they are very similar to X-man (McKinney)," Judge said. "We have to figure out where they're at physically and when do we want to start their clock. All of them have made a lot of progress. Some are a little bit closer than others. I want to see where they're at. The biggest thing I'd say at this point is because you have the bye week coming up next week, we want to be very calculated when we start their clock, that 21-day window. If you start it too early and then you lose another week with the bye week anyway, it may set them back. There's a benefit of getting them going with us right away, getting their legs back under them, get them back playing football. There's also a benefit of holding a little bit knowing you have the bye week next week and there's really no advantage to getting them to a game next week anyway. There's a couple different avenues we can take with these guys. I want to see where they're at physically. We talked this morning with the trainers and basically said, 'Hey look, tomorrow we have to have some answers to at least help us make a better decision.'"
*Finally, Hernandez remains on the Reserve/COVID-19 list.
"In terms of Will coming off the COVID list, I have to check with Ronnie (Barnes, the senior vice president of medical services) with some of the specifics. I know he has started some of the ramp up stuff from what I understand talking to Ronnie this morning. The one thing I want to make sure is we are fair with with Will is this guy has missed two games, that's a lot of football he's missed. We have to be fair to him to get him his conditioning back and get him back on the field moving around. It's not like this guy has spent the last two weeks lifting weights and running, doing individual drills in his back yard. This guy has been quarantined and fighting a virus. We have to make sure when we get him back, we give him a chance that he's able to get out there and play a full 60 minutes healthy. Also, make sure he gets some reps on the field to account for some of that lost time and kind of sharpen him back up for some of the movement he is going to see inside at that guard position."

Everything we know so far about Amazon Prime Exclusive series Laakhon Mein Ek season 2
The web series is created by stand-up comedian and writer Biswa Kalyan Rath
Over the past couple of years, the entertainment industry has seen the interest of the audience shift to content that has a very solid storyline and carries meaning, rather than opting to watch another masala film that requires you to leave your brains out of the theatre. One such show that provoked us to think was Laakhon Mein Ek, which was released in 2017. The show, created and written by Biswa Kalyan Rath, told us the story of 15-year-old Akash (Ritwik Sahore) from Raipur, who is pressurized by his parents to attend IIT coaching classes in Visakhapatnam. Not only did it resonate with the struggles of the students who are forced to achieve their parent's dreams, but also gave us an insider view of the punishing world of IIT, accompanied by bullying and being in a constant mind-numbing rat race.
Everything we know about Laakhon Mein Ek Season 2 -
And now, the show is back with season two. And this time, based on what the teaser video seems to indicate, the show focusses on women empowerment. This video, that released on Tuesday, features Taapsee Pannu, who recites a monologue on how courage is always associated with men, and even in our common language, all we have left to the women are words of profanity. As she does that, she then introduces the Laakhon Mein Ek season two.
Laakhon Mein Ek Season 2 Cast & Plot -
The second season's main protagonist will be Dr Shreya, played by Shweta Tripathi. Shweta Tripathi was previously seen in movies like Haraamkh0r and Masaan. She has also appeared in other web series like The Trip, Mirzapur, Made in Heaven and TVF Tripling.
The description of the video states that Shreya goes to a village called Sitlapur for a cataract camp, but the people living there "don't believe in government-aided health care due to the lack of proper medical supplies and dirty politics and the medical staff isn't the dream team one would want where one's health is concerned". Like seen in season one, we will see whether Dr Shreya is able to stick out despite the odds or not. The show is set to release on April 12, 2019. Just like season one, Laakhon Mein Ek season two will also see Biswa playing a role in the series.
However, it should be noted that Laakhon Mein Ek season two is not an Amazon Prime original, as it has been made by Only Much Louder (OML). The company has an ongoing deal with Prime Video for an annual slate of stand-up comedy specials, and hence this will be an Amazon Exclusive.
Alongside Laakhon Mein Ek, Biswa Kalyan Rath has further been associated with Amazon Prime Video for not just his stand-up special Biswa Mast Aadmi, but also for Comicstaan. We are now left to see what magic he brings to the screen with season two of his show.

ARAMID is a synthetic fibre that is produced by spinning a solid fibre from solution. The initial preparation of the polymer is generally achieved by a chemical reaction between the amine group and a carboxylic acid halide group.
Manmade protein fibers are produced by dissolving proteins like casein from milk, soya bean protein, and zein from corn in diluted alkali and forcing these solutions through a spinneret into an acid-formaldehyde coagulating bath.
Certain natural cellulose fibers are treated and re-produced for specific purposes. The famous fibers such as Viscose Rayon, Acetate etc. are produced by processing various natural polymers.
Fibres have traditionally been used in all cultures of the world to meet basic requirements of clothing, storage, building material, and for items of daily use such as ropes and fishing nets.


Scholars of administrative law focus overwhelmingly on lawsuits to review federal government action while assuming that, if plaintiffs win such lawsuits, the government will do what the courts say. But in fact, the federal government's compliance with court orders is imperfect and fraught, especially with orders compelling the government to act affirmatively. Through an examination of thousands of opinions (especially of district courts), docket sheets, briefs, and other filings, plus archival research and interviews, this Article provides the first general assessment of how federal courts handle the federal government's disobedience. The Article makes four conclusions. First, the federal judiciary is willing to issue contempt findings against agencies and officials. Second, while several federal judges believe they can (and have tried to) attach sanctions (fines and imprisonment) to these findings, the higher courts have exhibited a virtually complete unwillingness to allow sanctions, at times swooping down at the eleventh hour to rescue an agency from incurring a budget-straining fine or its top official from being thrown in jail. Third, the higher courts, even as they unfailingly thwart sanctions in all but a few minor instances, have bent over backward to avoid making pronouncements that sanctions are categorically unavailable, deliberately keeping the sanctions issue in a state of low salience and at least nominal legal uncertainty. Fourth, even though contempt findings are practically devoid of sanctions, they have a shaming effect that gives them substantial if imperfect deterrent power.


The first time I saw Ada Dahli was at the Blackout Party back in August. The weather was a bit chilly, she was sitting on the street and playing her acoustic guitar, there were only a few people around her. I sat down next to her on the ground, closed my eyes and listened to her tremendous voice for about a half an hour. Few days after, I had the opportunity to watch her band The Pallbearers at Silver Dollar Room and they literally rocked the stage! As I was very impressed by their live performance and dearly fond of great music, I started stalking them.
To save you from the troubles of stalking; Ada Dahli & The Pallbearers is formed by Ada Dahli (vocal, guitarist), Marlon Chaplin (guitar, piano, vocal), Charlie Crenshaw (bass) and Galen Pelley (drums). The band was founded back in 2011, since then they have been playing at various venues in Toronto. In August, they announced on their Facebook page that they were going to play at Not My Dog in the month of September. I brought it up to the table in deary music's weekly meetings. Mustafa instantly suggested on covering their show as he already knew about the band.
On the gig day, we arrived to the venue pretty early that's why we had the opportunity to meet the band members in person. They let us capture some shots before the show. According to the Facebook event, the gig was supposed to start at 10 pm but we were told that they were not going to play until 11.45 pm. It was quite challenging but we hanged in there! We grabbed few drinks and listened to previous performances.
They took the stage around 11.45 pm as they promised. They started the first set with "Where Are You", continued with "Mama", "Down in the Hole (Tom Waits cover)", "Lord Knows", "Keep in Mind", "Hotel Yorba (the White Stripes cover)", "Yeller Dream" and ended with "Island". The first song, "Where Are You" is a slow tempo song of their own with candid and clever lyrics as most of their songs are very well written with beautiful folk-blues tunes. But overall we liked their song "Mama" the best; it has really great guitar riffs which would definitely wreak your chest out and feast your ears if you'd been there! Beside slow tempo songs, they also played high tempo songs such as "Hotel Yorba" of White Stripes as everyone knows the song. Everyone at the room sang and dance with the band.
After a half an hour break, they started the second set with "What is Life" which made people move along with the music, they continued with Long Black Veil (Lefty Frizzell cover), "Every Girl Is My Jolene", "Motherless Child (Barbecue Bob cover), "Bound To Pack It Up (the White Stripes cover)", "Gambler's Woes" and "Long Way Down". As you may realized they very much like playing White Stripes, well, who doesn't like them? The most important point is they are pretty good at playing cover songs. We believe that it is not a very easy skill to build . In general, the audience tends to compare the band's performance with the original piece which could be quite challenging for most of the musicians but Ada Dahli & The Pallbearers play cover songs very well; almost blow them away. During the second set the crowd crawled with delight while Ada was singing "Every Girl Is My Jolene". Overall, the performance was really soulful and mesmerizing. Moreover, the band members are so approachable and humble. You'll probably end up grabbing drinks with them after the show. If you are curious about their live performance, check our video out! You may also want to take a look at their Facebook page. Their music is totally worth listening!

Walking around the mall, at schools, or even downtown Wall Street Plaza, a noted Orlando trend is unkept eyebrows. That is correct. Orlandoans are trending unkept, untamed, ungroomed eyebrows. If the price of professional waxing is not friendly with purse strings, a free alternative is tweezing.
Tweezing requires daily maintenance to combat strays that sprout overnight. Missing one day can lead to unmanagable brows. How many people consciously think, "I want to look like Bert fromSesame Street." Brows are not as scary or difficult to maintain as one may think. If you need assistance shaping them, follow the below tips.
Hold a straight line from the base of your nose to the corner of your eye. You can use a pencil, straw, scotch tape, or anything that can give you a straight edge. Whatever falls on the outside of the pencil should be removed.
Hold a straight line on the outside of the nose, vertically up towards the forehead. Anything between both brows, above the nose, that falls within the vertical lines of both sides should be removed.
Stick with the natural brow line! Otherwise, you may be stuck with strange, unintended facial expressions.
If you pluck a little too much, you can fill the area with brow pencils. It is best to try a few colors to see which works best with your skin tone. For example, although you may have black brows, it may be better for you to use a dark brown brow pencil. Mac Cosmetics(located at the Florida Mall and Mall at Millenia, and in some major department stores) carries a brow gel that looks like mascara. This product is amazing! They also have a brow wax which is used to smooth down the brows.
Is the perfect red pout on its way out?


The Common Cuckoo is a nest-parasitic bird declining in certain breeding populations across the UK. It has been unclear why some populations are declining at greater rates than others.
The Common Cuckoo is declining in certain breeding populations across the UK. Population decline is linked to choice of migratory route shows a new study (Photo: Locaguapa). Press photo.
A new study, conducted in collaboration with researchers from Center for Macroecology, Climate and Evolution at the University of Copenhagen, found that birds from declining breeding populations are more likely to migrate to winter breeding grounds in central Africa along a Western route (via Spain) than along an Eastern route (via Italy and the Balkans).
The reseachers recorded a higher mortality along the shorter, western route and showed that this higher mortality occurred prior to reaching the Sahara desert, suggesting that birds may have encountered challenging drought conditions in Spain.
These findings, published in Nature Communications, demonstrate that routes taken during migrations can influence population success at breeding sites. Considering how conditions at stopover sites contribute to mortality during migration is critical to predicting future success of the cuckoo and other migratory birds, the authors suggest.
In the study, lead by the British Trust for Ornithology, the researchers used geolocators to track 42 male Common Cuckoos from the rapidly declining UK population during 56 autumn migrations in 2011-2014. They monitored the birds mortality during migration.

Visit the Steinfeld Monastery, with its three characteristic towers, situated on a hill ridge in the North Eifel. Its origins date back to the time of Henry I (919-936). The monastery basilica was built from 1142-1150 as one of the earliest German vaulted churches of the Premonstratensians. Inside the late Gothic vault paintings by the painter Hubert von Aachen and a rich Baroque interior have been well- preserved. The basilica is world famous for its unique Koenig organ from 1727 and the mortal remains of St Hermann Josef. Today pilgrims place apples on his table tomb.
After secularisation in 1802 the monastery was used for secular purposes until it was taken over by the order of the Divine Saviour in 1923. Today it is home to the Steinfeld Monastery Academy, seminar rooms and guest house, in addition to a grammar school. The monastery as an entire complex is one of the best preserved monastic monuments of the Rhineland, and is directly situated on the premium hiking trail EifelSteig.

Excellent little cafe 10 minutes drive from the Cliffs of Moher. A pleasant surprise to find Single Origin beans served here with a barista who knows what to do with them. Been hard to find good coffee in Ireland but these guys are helping to buck that trend.


Now that the NFL season has officially ended, #DraftTwitter is in full effect. There is no shortage of opinions on which players should go where, as film-grinders and number-crunchers let you know their favorite prospects. And this is all happening weeks before the NFL combine and months before the NFL draft. Even if you take a numbers-based approach to draft prospect evaluation, you still have find the most relevant stats and how much to weigh them.
In an attempt to do just that, I created a logistic regression model to predict wide receiver success, before the NFL combine and draft. Therefore, we can use the model today to judge 2016 prospects, and then update the model as more information becomes available in the coming months.
There are many different ways to measure success. You could have a fantasy-point threshold, or total career stats like receiving yards. At this time of year, we're ultimately concerned with success for our dynasty rookie picks. I measured success as having one top-24 scoring season (PPR) in the first three years in the NFL. If a wide receiver has one top-24 early in his career, his market value is probably high enough at that point to make a profit on your initial rookie draft investment.
Armed with 15 years of college and NFL wide receiver data, I trained the model on 254 wide receivers to enter in the NFL from 2000 to 2013 (I didn't go through 2015 in order to have three years of NFL experience). Then, I tested the model on another randomly chosen 136 prospects to make sure that the model had true predictive power.
All four variables were found to be significant in the model, with a younger draft age, higher career market share, and more receiving touchdowns all being indicators of future success. Interestingly, fewer receptions per game is a positive in the model, likely because the model prefers receivers who accumulated yards and touchdowns through efficiency, not just high volume.
These four variables do a remarkable job predicting whether a wide receiver prospect will have a top-24 season in his first three years. The model correctly predicted that a wide receiver prospect in the test set would be a success or failure 80.9 percent of the time.
Remember, this model doesn't incorporate any data from the NFL combine, and more importantly, the NFL draft. Draft position is clear one of the most important variables for predicting prospect success. That said, our model was only slightly less successful at predicting success than draft position (38.5 percent versus 42.3 percent).
Here are the top-15 "success" scores from the 2000-2013 data set.
The "Predict" column gives the model score (between 1 and 0) for each prospect indicating the likelihood of a top-24 PPR season in a prospects first three years, and the "Top 24" column indicates whether or not the receiver actually had a top-24 PPR year in his first three seasons. Draft position is listed in the table only for reference; it was not part of the model.
It should come as no surprise that our model favors some top-5 NFL draft picks, like Larry Fitzgerald and Calvin Johnson, who combine a younger age, dominant career market share, and touchdown-scoring prowess.
Since our model only is concerned with production and age, second- and third-round picks like Chris Henry and Antonio Bryant score just as high as top-5 picks, despite the fact that both had their draft position negatively affected by off-the-field issues.
It might surprise some to see Hakeem Nicks so high on the list, but he had incredibly strong college production at a young age. Nicks initially carried that through to the NFL, but mounting injuries turned the once promising star into a replacement-level player.
Our model likes did a great job of finding successful players who were in the 20-50 draft position range, like Dez Bryant, DeAndre Hopkins and Demaryius Thomas. The success rate for picks in this range is much lower than for our model, and there were some very early NFL draft selections that our model didn't look kindly upon (Tavon Austin only has a predict score of 0.09).
Now that we have our pre-combine, pre-draft model for predicting success in place, in the next article I will apply the model to 2016's wide receiver draft class.
In the meantime, below is a sortable database that you can explore and see how all the receivers who entered the NFL from 2000-2013 fared in the model.

Giving Bataeños the healthcare services they deserve
Published on Monday, 28 December 2020
Located at the southern tip of Bataan Province, Mariveles is home to the Freeport Area of Bataan (FAB). In 2018, it was the second richest municipality in the Philippines, according to a Commission on the Audit report. Job-seekers from other provinces flock to the area.
A fifth of Bataan's population lives in Mariveles, making it the most populous of the province's 11 municipalities and one city. Yet health services for its residents used to be limited to those provided by the rural health unit, barangay health stations, private clinics, and the Mariveles Mental Health Hospital. The nearest hospital was over an hour's drive away in Balanga City.
Ria (name withheld upon request), a long-time Mariveles resident and whose husband works in a FAB locator, recalls how she had to fight for space in a packed bus to get to the Bataan General Hospital and Medical Center (BGHMC) in Balanga City, where she gave birth to her first-born in 2019. Each two-way trip that included tricycle rides would cost her almost P200, which for Ria was "too much, especially since we're on a tight budget."
White elephant to white knight
Governor Albert Garcia acknowledged the deficiency, saying in a February 2018 interview with ZFF, "There are RHUs (rural health units), lying-in clinics but no hospital so when an accident occurs, they still need to bring the victim to Balanga. Plus, the Freeport is there, the workers, the population, so it needs a functioning hospital," then he added, "That is why by hook or by crook this year (2018), the hospital will open" referring to the then-unused hospital, which had its roots to the vision of the governor's late father.
As a congressman in 2011, Enrique Garcia introduced a bill to build a Mariveles hospital, which led to remodeling and then a retrofitting in 2017 of an existing building that stood idle since, earning it the monicker Mariveles Display Hospital.
ZFF and Bataan LGU join hands in COVID-19 fight

But the Mariveles District Hospital (MDH) would finally open in September 2018. It rendered out-patient and emergency services. And once it opened, its progress was fast.
In August 2019, it was licensed to operate as an infirmary. In March 2020, it was upgraded to a licensed Level 1 hospital just two weeks after it was designated a COVID-19 referral hospital.
It has discharged the province's youngest COVID-19 patient (3 years old) and the oldest couple (80 years old).

Tracing infected and looking after their welfare
Ria was among MDH's COVID-19 patients. She was exposed to a friend who had the virus. She was immediately tracked, tested in the RHU, and picked by MDH personnel after results showed she was positive. At the MDH emergency room, hospital personnel explained the tests and treatment she would be undergoing. For Ria, everything happened quickly, efficiently.
Thanks to ZFF's interventions, the provincial government had the proper protocols in place.
"Our added knowledge because of our partnership helped us to cope better with the pandemic," Garcia said during the governors' learning forum last June 30.
For Ria, the two-week hospital stay was made easier by the health workers.
"I gained another family there," said Ria, who praised her doctors and nurses for their patience, courtesy, and genuine service. "You can feel they were there to serve and not merely work."
From her first day until her discharge, Ria did not have to shell out money. "I had my medicines. I was fed on time. They gave me masks and soap for handwashing. Upon my discharge, I did not have to pay for anything. Plus, when I was discharged, they gave me a set of easy-to-understand tips to avoid COVID-19."
Fortunately, too for Ria, she did not suffer any discrimination when she returned home. The same cannot be said of MDH health staff, who were not welcome in their neighborhoods. So the Mariveles government and community responded. The local government opened a dormitory for the staff. Community members gave them meals and comfort food like milk tea. A FAB locator manufactured face masks for the health front-liners.
Service delivery network
Thankfully, too, its health service delivery network (SDN) has finally improved. MDH chief Dr. Hector Santos, who also oversees the Orani District Hospital, said the functional SDN has made it easier to refer and track all patients and not just those with COVID-19.
Governor Garcia said likewise, "There is that highly elusive service delivery network during normal times when it was a challenge for all LGUs to cooperate toward an efficient SDN. Because there was a crisis, and with help from our partners, we were able to integrate this health system that is now addressing our COVID response."
Bataan's proximity to Metro Manila contributed to its numerous COVID-19 cases. Acting swiftly and decisively to the crisis, however, has kept the pandemic manageable.

Political Change Roils Inland Empire
Originally posted at Capitol Weekly.
By Samantha Gallegos.
California Republicans face tossups in areas of the state that for years were considered strongholds and easy wins for GOP contenders. The reason: demographics.
"What that they say about history, you know, if you don't remember it you're doomed to repeat it," Rod Pacheco, a former Riverside County district attorney and former member of the state Assembly, where he served as as Republican leader. "The Inland Empire is going through a history lesson."
The demographic changes have been dramatic. Whites, for example, who were 43.5 percent of the electorate in northwestern Riverside in 2000, will be less than 24 percent in two years.
"All these people started coming in, and they liked that small town character so they adopted that culture," Pacheco said. "They didn't bring L.A.'s culture to Riverside… they adopted the culture in the area, and that small town culture is a non-partisan culture."
Voting data expert Paul Mitchell says a recent trend throughout California has been the migration from major cities, like Los Angeles, into places like Riverside-San Bernardino counties.
The nation's greatest county-to-county population movement in recent years has been from L.A. County to the Inland Empire, the Riverside-San Bernardino areas, according to U.S. Census Bureau data targeting the 2005-2010 American Community Survey.
Nearly 18,000 people migrated from L.A. to Riverside County, and that county saw roughly another 5,000 new residents from San Bernardino. That's about 23,000 new residents, from just those two counties in five-years. The largest movement of people from one county to another in the entire nation was from L.A. to San Bernardino, an estimated 44,020 people in total.
Many residents, Mitchell said, moved for lifestyle reasons like more affordable housing.
The result: changes in community priorities and electorate preferences for the Inland Empire. But the Riverside area, Pacheco said, has never been committed to voting along party lines.
Voting trends in Riverside are unique in the state. The area is characteristically non-partisan and Mitchell says it's also distinct for consecutively electing African Americans — with Cheryl Brown (D-San Bernardino) replacing Assembly member Wilmer Amin Carter in 2012 — despite lacking a significant African American population.
Republican voter registration in Riverside has less of an edge than it once did, dropping about 7 percent from 2000 to 2012, despite the population explosion and a nearly 10 percent gain in registered voters in the county overall (58.88 percent to 68.53 percent).
"It's the only district in the state that's repeatedly elected an African American that doesn't have a known, regular African American population, like the Compton or Oakland areas," Mitchell said.
Even though most of the rural south in California is considered conservative, shifting populations and a new set of district lines could be putting the once predictable Inland Empire seats in tossup territory. Both state parties are taking note, as the New Year brings new opportunities to gain legislative seats.
At the same time the population move occurred, there was a shift in voter registration.
The GOP still stands as the primary voice for the region in the state Assembly, with only two Democrats claiming seats out of the seven districts representing Riverside, according to the county registrar's office.
State Republican Party Leader Jim Brulte said both parties need to be cognitive of the impact of the changing populace on future elections, in ways they didn't have to in the past.
"You know, candidates didn't really have to work hard in those days, other than in the primaries," Brulte said about his days running for legislative office in the early to late '90s. "There are more competitive seats in the Riverside and San Bernardino counties today than there were prior to the last redistricting, and that's something both sides have to work hard to get votes, not just Republicans."
Redistricting's ripple effect
"Both the San Bernardino and Riverside Democratic Parties have been focused on trying to shift citizens of this area [politically] for a long time, and they've finally got the raw demographic percentages necessary to pull it off," said John Longville, a longtime San Bernardino resident and former Democratic Assembly member serving from 1998-2004. "And of course with the new [reapportionment] lines as well — that had an additional effect."
Responsibility for drawing district lines every 10 years is now in the hands of a voter-approved Citizen's Commission, born out of a 2008 act removing from Legislature the power of defining the state's U.S. congressional, State Senate, Assembly and Board of Equalization districts.
"All this kind of synergy created more Republican dominance. All that started to change in these last elections … the two-decade run of Republicans through the Inland Empire has ended and we've reverted back to the '70s and '80s, and again we can point to reapportionment and the consonance of changing demographics."
Pacheco, an Inland Empire resident since 1965 and a player in reapportionment in 2001, said drawing new lines in the past was the reason for shifting party representation.
"In the '70s and '80s, Democrats kind of ruled the roost, got elected all over the place. Then in the very early '90s, the population shift contemporaneously connected with the change in reapportionment," Pacheco said this caused the population to change party affiliation.
"All this kind of synergy created more Republican dominance. All that started to change in these last elections… the two-decade run of Republicans through the Inland Empire has ended and we've reverted back to the '70s and '80s, and again we can point to reapportionment and the consonance of changing demographics."
Pacheco said Democratic groups throughout the state tried to influence the new independent commission in shaping districts in 2011, but Republicans did not.
"Maybe it was because they were just used to just… simply drawing them," he said. "So they drew the seats… and low and behold in 2012, all of a sudden what were once solid Republican seats became challenged Republican seats."
Not only were lines in the area being redrawn, the Inland Empire itself was changing because of population movements and an economic crisis that lead the public to favor a Democratic solution.
Groups in the state are also seeking to make the State Republican Party more inclusive. GROW Elect, a political action committee designed to put Latino Republican candidates in public office, has already been successful in helping to elect several candidates at the local level, the group's President and CEO Ruben Barrales said.
"The population had gone from moderate to conservative Republicans, to moderate…to some degree liberal Democrats," Pacheco said. "So, you saw Democrat office holders all of a sudden springing up all over the place—Raul Ruiz who beat Marry Bono, Jose Medina who is in the State Assembly representing a portion of the seat I used to represent, Richard Roth in the State Senate."
Party adjustment
"The Republicans in the Legislature are a more diverse group after this last election than they were prior to the elections," Brulte said. "[That's] the result of Republicans recognizing they have to do a better job of going out and talking to everybody… recruiting candidates who reflect the neighborhoods in which they're running."
New districts are expected to provide some security for some conservative candidates in next year's state senatorial elections. The California Target Book, an almanac of California politics, claims the 28th seat as safe for Republicans.
The group also has its sights set on promoting legislative candidates in 2014, like former Assemblywoman Bonnie Garcia's campaign in the upcoming election for the 28th senatorial district, which currently leads in money raised by nearly $5,000.
But redistricting didn't prove itself to be beneficial for seventh-term incumbent Mary Bono Mack in her bid for a Riverside congressional district. In last year's election, Bono Mack lost to Democrat Raul Ruiz by more than 12,000 votes, despite outspending him more than $450,000.
The changing demographics of the region might explain Ruiz's victory.
According to household information assessed by Political Data Inc., nearly twice as many Riverside County Latinos in the November 2013 election voted Democrat than Republican, or about 120,000 votes.
It's becoming increasingly rewarding for Inland Empire candidates to appeal to the Hispanic and Latino groups. "Melissa Melendez, who has a Latina surname — she's actually not Latina herself but she has a Latina surname — she benefited from Latino votes in her district," Mitchell said of the Republican Assembly member representing parts of Western Riverside. "That included a lot of [Latinos] who had moved there from L.A… who had moved to her district and then impacted that race."
Around the time these groups were coming to the Inland Empire from L.A. in droves, the so-called Great Recession hit. The new population, Pacheco said, was expected to lean toward Democratic during these time because the party's message was better in tough economic times.
"Somebody preaching the message of government needs to help those who need help… running against somebody who is saying people need to pull themselves up by their own boot straps. Well, who are those people going to vote for?" he said. "The Democratic message played better in tough economic times than the Republican message did."
Though the nation's economy is recovering and California now boasts a $2.4 billion budget surplus, the first in nearly a decade, the electorate hasn't yet recovered.
"The Inland Empire is still depressed financially… I still live there, it's still tough times out there," Pacheco said. "I don't think 2014 is going to help Republicans in the slightest. I don't see it as a good year, it's going to be more of the same."

InterView Magazine October 30th 2018 : The Immortal Joan Collins Finds Her Way In A New Age..
THE IMMORTAL JOAN COLLINS FINDS HER WAY IN A NEW AGE
Photography Bella Newman
Describing Joan Collins is one of the few instances in Hollywood where using the word "immortal" is not a cliché. The self-proclaimed working actor has been in the game for nearly three-quarters of a century, and has resurfaced this year onAmerican Horror Story: Apocalypse as Evie Gallant, a wealthy nuclear war survivor who looks plucked from Collins's days playing the soap opera villain Alexis Carrington on Dynasty. Collins has not been seen outdoors without a statement shoulder since the Reagan administration, but as she explains to the fashion designer and filmmaker Tom Ford, she is not one to follow the herd. The two dear friends got together to discuss everything but their respective stories about Gina Lollobrigida.
TOM FORD: Joan, I've seen you on American Horror Story and, my god, you're spectacular.
JOAN COLLINS: Really?
FORD: Your lines are perfectly delivered, and who knew how great you would look in black latex?
COLLINS: I have to say, when I looked through the crack in the door and saw that scene being performed, the look of shock on my face was not acting.
FORD: You have such a great sense of style, and you've become an icon. How did you find your style? How did you become "Joan Collins the public persona"?
COLLINS: Well, my mother had seven or eight sisters, and everybody was very concerned about how they looked—my mother always had daytime clothes as well as evening wear. At one point, I even wanted to be a designer, and I would design clothes for my aunts. We all had dressmakers at the time, because in the 1950s and '60s the clothes in the shops were awful. Then, when Dynasty started, Nolan Miller said, "I think we're going to put you in this little tweed suit with a pussycat bow." I said, "No way! Do you know what Pierre Cardin and Yves Saint Laurent are doing in Paris right now? They're doing nipped-in waists and big shoulders. They're doing big hair, big earrings." That's what I wanted to do. So I talked to Aaron Spelling, and he said, "Well, that's not how our leading ladies work in TV"—because he did Charlie's Angels when they were all in little silk shirts and pants.
FORD: Right.
COLLINS: But he said, "I think it's right for Alexis." So Nolan and I had carte blanche. I loved the '80s, and I still love the clothes. I won't wear anything unless it's got a full shoulder, or off-the-shoulder. I'm not the jeans-and-t-shirt type. Particularly torn jeans; I think that's disgusting. Someone once said to me, "I bet you never wear track pants." Well, of course, I do. There was a picture of me taken on set a couple of weeks ago with a white wig, an anorak, and track pants. I'm drinking a coffee. But I really like looking my best. I also went through a bohemian stage, wanting to look like Juliette Gréco.
FORD: It was a chic bohemian phase. I've seen those pictures. You know, I feel lucky to have been one of the last generations of children who were raised in a time when we had to put on a jacket and tie to take a plane. My mother wouldn't answer the door without lipstick. So I admire you.
COLLINS: You know, if every actress in Hollywood wants to go around in torn jeans looking like they haven't bothered—except that they've bothered a lot—then I don't want to follow the herd.
FORD: You might not want to answer this, but what do you think of this new body type of having butt implants and these gigantic busts with tiny waists?
COLLINS: I find it bizarre, but every generation has its ideal woman, doesn't it? Venus de Milo had a tummy.
FORD: Yes, but that was real. Now they have these implants. We're maybe in a post-human phase where you can just create yourself to be whatever object you want to be.
COLLINS: I do wonder when I see those girls with cement put in their derrières what they are going to look like when they're 60 or 70 years old.
FORD: I know.
COLLINS: It has to fall!
FORD: Do you follow anyone on Instagram?
COLLINS: Only close friends. I should follow you!
FORD: I have a fake Instagram name. Of course, there is a "Tom Ford" Instagram account, but it's purely corporate. Then I have a fake name that I use to be an Instagram voyeur.
COLLINS: That's very clever. I only post anodyne pictures. I refuse to post anything political. About two years ago I tweeted, "Mrs. May, our prime minister, made an inspiring speech last night." I got such hate mail. That's when I decided I would never say anything controversial again.
FORD: It's dangerous.
COLLINS: It is.
FORD: Another danger subject these days is #MeToo.
COLLINS: I don't know if you have ever read any of my autobiographies, but there were a lot of #MeToo situations in there. At 18, I was drugged and raped by a man I went on to marry. I had never seen a man's penis. I had only looked at a statue of Michelangelo's and thought, "What's that?"
FORD: It's very small on Michelangelo's statue. I never really quite got that.
COLLINS: The #MeToo movement is very empowering to Western women, but I wonder what is being done for women in other parts of the world.
TOM FORD:
WHAT'S THE SECRET TO A GREAT MARRIAGE?
JOAN COLLINS:
SEPARATE BATHROOMS.
FORD: Something I wanted to ask you, Joan—because I find you absolutely daring—is where does your fearlessness come from?
COLLINS: Maybe it comes from being a Blitz baby. I have vague recollections of Mummy and Daddy taking us down to the air-raid shelter at Edgware Road. My mother was terrified, because they'd see the bombs falling, but none of it really bothered me.
FORD: I admire that fearlessness in every way.
COLLINS: Well, when you get to a certain age, there's really nothing to be scared of anymore. No one has ever said the word "fearless" to me before, but I suppose in a way I am. When they asked me to do American Horror Story, I thought it was marvelous. I didn't know who I was going to play or what I was going to do, and I suppose few actors would go into a project without knowing who their character is.
FORD: I think of you as an incredible wit—the things that come out of your mouth at a dinner table are always incredible. Were you involved in writing some of your own lines in American Horror Story?
COLLINS: I did change one line, when I'm sitting at the table and say, "Well, when I was having dinner with Gina Lollobrigida…" It was not originally Gina Lollobrigida—it was another actress that people hadn't really heard of who was not so relevant. I won't say the other one's name, but I just thought "Gina Lollobrigida" was so wonderful-sounding.
FORD: Next time we see each other privately, I'll tell you a story about Gina Lollobrigida.
COLLINS: I'll tell you one as well! By the way, did you watch The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story?
FORD: Absolutely. And, of course, I knew Gianni. I was on the Concorde with him the day before that all happened. This might sound like a silly question, but is stardom different now than it was in another time?
COLLINS: It used to be totally different! I really became famous when I came to Fox. I was already famous in England, as a pinup girl and a glamour girl—I was always featured with a dress cut down to my navel. But when I came to Hollywood, they put the full publicity machine on me. They inundated the papers and magazines with pictures of me in bathing suits and sexy little outfits. I think I did become sort of famous then, but that fame deteriorated very fast. I never thought of myself as a star, nor did I ever want to be a star.
FORD: Really?
COLLINS: I consider myself a working actor.
FORD: It's so interesting to hear you say that, because I think of you as a star.
COLLINS: I don't go with the trappings of stardom. I do my own hair, my own makeup. I style myself. I don't have any Tom Ford clothes right now.
FORD: Joan! That is easy to remedy!
COLLINS: Maybe one day I will.
FORD: You just have to come for a fitting.
COLLINS: I will, but I don't like the connotations of stardom. I did a picture at Fox with Jayne Mansfield, and she was the true star. She was followed by hairdressers, her publicist, she had an entourage, and she loved it every time anybody came on the set and took a picture of her. She would just glow and stick out that chest and really go for it. I liked Jayne, she was fun. But I know from my father, who was an agent, that being a star doesn't last. The only person who has really managed to do it is Streisand, I think. She's the only person who's been a star for, what, 50, 60 years?
FORD: And she doesn't work very often.
COLLINS: I don't think she needs to.
FORD: You and Percy [Gibson] have been together for 16 years, and you seem to have a wonderful marriage. Every time we have dinner with you, I walk away thinking, "Wow, that's a great couple."
COLLINS: Thank you.
FORD: I know you've had five marriages.
COLLINS: Yes.
FORD: So what's the secret to a great marriage?
COLLINS: Separate bathrooms.
FORD: If you can afford separate bathrooms, yes.
COLLINS: I think the actual secret is a certain amount of mystery. I don't think one should know everything about the other. I met Percy in 2000. I liked him, and then like turned to love, and love turned to lust. But lust doesn't last. As we all know, you wear yourself out.
FORD: Apparently proper lovemaking with foreplay burns 400 calories per hour.
COLLINS: Oh, really?
FORD: I investigated that. It's the same as skiing.
COLLINS: Well, I don't like skiing. I'd rather sit in a nice fur hat, sipping a cappuccino or a martini.
FORD: Is there anything we don't know about you that you think people should know?
COLLINS: I like to watch Access Hollywood at night.

Are we really so polarised?
Curated on Posted on November 15, 2021 November 16, 2021 by Stefaan Verhulst
Article by Dominic Packer and Jay Van Bavel: "In 2020, the match-making website OkCupid asked 5 million hopeful daters around the world: "Could you date someone who has strong political opinions that are the opposite of yours?" Sixty per cent said no, up from 53% a year before.
Scholars used to worry that societies might not be polarised enough. Without clear differences between political parties, they thought, citizens lack choices, and important issues don't get deeply debated. Now this notion seems rather quaint as countries have fractured along political lines, reflected in everything from dating preferences to where people choose to live.
Sign up to our Inside Saturday newsletter for an exclusive behind the scenes look at the making of the magazine's biggest features, as well as a curated list of our weekly highlights.
Just how stark has political polarisation become? Well, it depends on where you live and how you look at it. When social psychologists study relations between groups, they often find that whereas people like their own groups a great deal, they have fairly neutral feelings towards out-groups: "They're fine, but we're great!" This pattern used to describe relations between Democrats and Republicans in the US. In 1980, partisans reported feeling warm towards members of their own party and neutral towards people on the other side. However, while levels of in-party warmth have remained stable since then, feelings towards the out-party have plummeted.
The dynamics are similar in the UK, where the Brexit vote was deeply divisive. A 2019 study revealed that while UK citizens were not particularly identified with political parties, they held strong identities as remainers or leavers. Their perceptions were sharply partisan, with each side regarding its supporters as intelligent and honest, while viewing the other as selfish and close-minded. The consequences of hating political out-groups are many and varied. It can lead people to support corrupt politicians, because losing to the other side seems unbearable. It can make compromise impossible even when you have common political ground. In a pandemic, it can even lead people to disregard advice from health experts if they are embraced by opposing partisans.
The negativity that people feel towards political opponents is known to scientists as affective polarisation. It is emotional and identity-driven – "us" versus "them". Importantly, this is distinct from another form of division known as ideological polarisation, which refers to differences in policy preferences. So do we disagree about the actual issues as much as our feelings about each other suggest?
Despite large differences in opinion between politicians and activists from different parties, there is often less polarisation among regular voters on matters of policy. When pushed for their thoughts about specific ideas or initiatives, citizens with different political affiliations often turn out to agree more than they disagree (or at least the differences are not as stark as they imagine).
More in Common, a research consortiumthat explores the drivers of social fracturing and polarisation, reports on areas of agreement between groups in societies. In the UK, for example, they have found that majorities of people across the political spectrum view hate speech as a problem, are proud of the NHS, and are concerned about climate change and inequality…(More)".

I couldn't fault food and it was delivered earlier than estimated time. All in all I was very happy.
Always great food and fast delivery! I love the Panang chicken and my partner loves the peanut beef satay sticks! Great place overall.
Delivery was more than 30mins late. Not often are they late but this time yes they were.
Fantastic Thai meals, speedy delivery.
Great price tasty food delivered fast!
The Tod Kra Tiam (beef and garlic) is superb!
Love the food here, consistent & fast!
Food was delicious. Delivery was a bit before the ETA provided. Will order from them again!
Best Thai in the Penrith area!
Firstly they forgot our pad Thai, I don't know wether it is on purpose just to see who does not call back so make a bit of extra money just by forgetting one or two orders a night. Quick to send it, We were not impressed, all the dishes were nothing WOW! I still have them in my fridge ready to be tossed out. Whole pad Thai,half pad Thai, and another dish that not really liked by Us Thai food lovers. Stick to Stir Crazy, waste of $50 something dollars.
Delivery was late with no apology. The soft drink was frozen. The sauces were knocked over in the bag. Not impressed will not be ordering from this place again.
Food was amazing although the delivery was very disappointing. The restaurant somehow had the wrong address.
Best Thai in the area! Regular customer!
Good food, delivered on time, great taste.
I've been a customer for many years, still great tasting great value Thai food.
I love this place, been eating here for years. Pick up is so quick, food is always on point! Cheaper than a lot of thai places and better in quality. Staying a loyal customer for sure.
Delivered hot enough to eat. Thanks. Prawn chilli meal was beautiful. Red curry chicken was very disappointing. It tasted like the chicken was cooked separately and then thrown into the sauce and sent off for delivery. It was bland. The sauce itself was great. We ate that and threw out all the chicken pieces. If I order again I will make sure it is a vegetable red curry. Actually. I won't order anything but prawn or vegetarian from now on to avoid disappointment.
I was really disappointed with the food I received. The entrees were bland and soggy, the main (satay beef) was watery and flavourless. I also ordered steamed rice and it was gluggy. Even more annoying was the fact that I had to wait 90 minutes for my order. If it wasn't so late by the time it arrived, I would have taken it back to get a refund and gone and got an alternative dinner.
Good food, nice & hot with fast delivery. Would recommend this restaurant .
Came right on time and the food was as good as the last time. Fantastic would highly recommend to anyone that likes Thai food.
Was lucky though that she called me because they sent her to house number 16 instead of 18 and we'd obviously already paid online so it was also lucky those neighbours weren't home to take our food haha.
Impressive and will order from there again.
Thank you Eat Now for your timely delivery and Three Junction.
This was the first time I ordered home delivery from Three Junction Thai. I chose this Thai restaurant based on the great reviews I read before ordering. The food was delivered within a decent time frame. The delivery driver was lovely and polite. The food was still hot and very well priced. The food was delicious and over exceded my expectations for home delivered food. I also made a request while ordering online to leave out an ingredient from one of the dishes, and they did exactly what I requested, which is great to know, especially if you have food allergies. Will definately order from this restaurant again. Thank you!
this has to be the best Thai restaurant outside Thailand. I have been going here for the past 20 years and tried many others but keep coming back. The food quality it is the best and at realistic prices. You cant go past this place for Thai food in the Penrith area.
Stir-fried rice noodles with chilli, basil, and vegetables.
Barbecued pork mixed with salad "Thai style"
