What I Learned After 6 Months of Seed Cycling
by Jessica Rich August 11, 2021
In a recent post I touted the benefits of seed cycling, which involves eating a combination of seeds that naturally mimic estrogen and progesterone as a way to control menstrual cycles and hormonal changes. Like with most alternative solutions I cover—and because my own cycle decided to go rouge recently—I decided to try it for myself.
Here's what I learned.
Seed cycling got me back on track. I've almost always had a regular cycle, but it recently got so out of whack that I had trouble keeping track of it. I was either a week early or 4 days late every month—and there was no rhyme or reason to it as far as I could tell. But after a month or two of eating 1-2 teaspoons daily of ground pumpkin and flax seeds (during the follicular phase of my cycle) and 1-2 teaspoons daily of ground sesame and sunflower seeds (during the luteal phase), I'm happy to report that my cycle is back on track. Six months in, and things are still on schedule. I'm truly amazed.
Seed cycling reduced my beach-ball bloat. As any woman in her 40s can attest, there are days when you feel like yourself and days when you feel like an inflated beach ball. Bloating is no joke, it's super uncomfortable, and it's almost impossible to debloat once it kicks in. This started happening to me pretty frequently every month, again with no rhyme or reason. But after about 2 months of seed cycling, my beach-ball belly decreased drastically. I'll admit that bloating still does happen, but now it's much less frequent—and less drastic.
Seed cycling was easy to incorporate. I bought ground, raw, organic, unsalted, and unroasted seeds on Amazon; stored each in a sealed, labeled jar; and found a dedicated, easy-to-reach spot for them in the refrigerator to make sure I stuck to the routine and made it a habit. I set daily reminders on my phone until I no longer needed them. I either ate them directly from the spoon with a glass of water or added them to smoothies.
Seed cycling made me rethink breakfast. While these seeds mimic estrogen and progesterone to balance hormone levels naturally, that's not all they do. All four seeds are rich in vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, healthy fats, protein, and fiber that support both brain and gut health. Because these are calorie-dense foods as well, I've simply made them part of my morning breakfast. It's a great way to get these nutrients first thing in the morning.
Seed cycling worked better than I could have predicted—and I have no intention of giving it up, especially as I inch ever closer to perimenopause. If you're experiencing hormonal changes, irregular periods, bloating, or other intense period-related symptoms like I was, I encourage you to give seed cycling a (natural) shot!

Definition - What does Pascal mean?
Pascal is a procedural programming language that supports structured programming and data structures to encourage good programming practices. Pascal was originally developed in 1970 by Niklaus Wirth and is named after the famous French mathematician Blaise Pascal.
While Pascal is a reliable and efficient programming language, it is mainly used to teach programming techniques. In fact, it is the first language that many programmers learn. There are commercial versions of Pascal that are used, but in general, most developers favor Java, C#, C, C++, etc.
Pascal uses control structures with reserved words which include if, then, else, while, etc. It also supports data structures and abstractions like records, pointers, type definitions, sets and enumeration. Similar to any other object-oriented programming language, Pascal also has special program structures and control statements. They start with the keyword "program" followed by the main block holding the begin and end statements. Data types permit a range of values a variable can hold and are capable of storing and defining a set of operations that can be performed on the data type. Predefined data types supported by Pascal are integer, real, char and Boolean. Pascal has certain unique types like the set type, and user-defined types are defined from other types using the type declaration.


Becoming a culturally responsive classroom is hard. To help you along your journey, here is your guide to exploring and respecting the cultural backgrounds of your students while also using diversity as an asset. If you take our advice, you will have a culturally responsive classroom in no time.
Gather a wide base of knowledge about other cultures. This is one of the most critical steps that you as a teacher must take in order to educate students in a culturally responsive way. If you're an educator, or you're aspiring to become one, you'd better become familiar with the cultural values, traditions, communication styles, learning preferences, contributions to society, and relationship patterns of their future students.
Don't just limit yourself to book learning. Granted, you can get some of the education you need by simply reading about cultural diversity. But there is something to be said for genuine interaction and discourse with members of students' cultures.
Use your knowledge to understand your students better. Yes, it's true that book knowledge about diverse cultural groups can come in handy when you're designing lesson plans and educational materials. But taking it one step further, you can often interpret your students' attitudes and behaviors a lot better if you know more about the cultures they belong to.
Avoid stereotyping. This is a big problem that often comes when you are beginning to learn about other cultures. And at first glance, it does seem difficult to apply knowledge about culturally-influenced thoughts and behaviors to the classroom without falling into the traps of over-generalization and stereotyping.
But in order to avoid these problems, your next step is to engage in a rigorous examination of the general cultural practices of their students. This is the beginning of the personal dimension of culturally responsive pedagogy: learning about the specifics of students' cultural backgrounds and how those cultural patterns and beliefs can be most positively expressed in a real classroom setting.
View each student's culture as a dynamic and individualized concept. Remember this: a person's culture represents the sum of many spheres of influence, including context within history, gender, age, religion, family relationships, group memberships, cultural beliefs and practices, historical context, and level of education. Therefore, to avoid stereotyping, the educator must view each student as possessing a personalized culture instead of as a member of a homogenous group.
A bit intimidating? It may seem so at first. However, in practice, there are a variety of methods that can be employed to learn more about a student's cultural heritage and identity. Read on to Step 6 for some tips on this.
Use classroom assignments as a primary window into your students' beliefs. Writing assignments can play a significant role in gathering information about student thought patterns and tendencies. Interviews with family members, assignments asking students to write about learning experiences that occur outside of school, and assignments involving family stories and traditions all can play a significant role in discovering information about a students' cultural heritage. Students' parents can often be solicited as sources of useful personal information and visiting the neighborhoods where diverse students live can help give educators an idea about the level of social support present and the types of challenges that the student might face outside of the classroom.
Get your students' names right. It may sound simple enough, but a teacher who does not take the time to even know the names of his or her students, exactly as they should be pronounced, shows a basic lack of respect for those students. Teachers should learn the proper pronunciation of student names and express interest in the etymology of interesting and diverse names.
Encourage students to learn about each other. Teachers should have their students research and share information about their ethnic background as a means of fostering a trusting relationship with both fellow classmates. Students are encouraged to analyze and celebrate differences in traditions, beliefs, and social behaviors. It is of note that this task helps European-American students realize that their beliefs and traditions constitute a culture as well, which is a necessary breakthrough in the development of a truly culturally responsive classroom.
Give students a voice. Another important requirement for creating a nurturing environment for students is reducing the power differential between the instructor and students. Students in an authoritarian classroom may sometimes display negative behaviors as a result of a perceived sense of social injustice; in the culturally diverse classroom, the teacher thus acts more like a facilitator than an instructor. Providing students with questionnaires about what they find to be interesting or important provides them with a measure of power over what they get to learn and provides them with greater intrinsic motivation and connectedness to the material. Allowing students to bring in their own reading material and present it to the class provides them with an opportunity to both interact with and share stories, thoughts, and ideas that are important to their cultural and social perspective.
Be aware of language constraints. In traditional classrooms, students who are not native English speakers often feel marginalized, lost, and pressured into discarding their original language in favor of English. In a culturally responsive classroom, diversity of language is celebrated and the level of instructional materials provided to non-native speakers is tailored to their level of English fluency. Accompanying materials should be provided in the student's primary language and the student should be encouraged to master English.
Hand out praise accordingly. High expectations for student performance form the core of the motivational techniques used in culturally responsive instruction. Given that culturally responsive instruction is a student-centered philosophy, it should come as no surprise that expectations for achievement are determined and assigned individually for each student. Students don't receive lavish praise for simple tasks but do receive praise in proportion to their accomplishments. When expectations are not met then encouragement is the primary emotional currency used by the educator. If a student is not completing her work, then one should engage the student positively and help guide the student toward explaining how to complete the initial steps that need to be done to complete a given assignment or task. Once the student has successfully performed the initial steps for successful learning it will boost his sense of efficacy and help facilitate future learning attempts.
While popular among educators in traditional classrooms, reward systems should be considered with caution in a culturally responsive setting. Reward systems can sometimes be useful for convincing unmotivated students to perform tasks in order to get a reward (and hopefully learn something in the process) but they have the undesirable long-term side effect of diminishing intrinsic motivation for learning. This effect is particularly strong for students who were already intrinsically motivated to learn before shifting their focus toward earning rewards. Given that one of the prime goals of culturally responsive instruction is to motivate students to become active participants in their learning, caution and forethought should be used before deciding to introduce a reward system into the equation.
A culturally response, student-centered classroom should never alienate any one student, but should bring all the different backgrounds together in a blended format. Teachers should develop their own strategies, as well as take cues from their students to make a culturally responsive classroom succeed.
Teachers: knock down your own biases first. For many teachers, who hail from a middle-class European-American background, a common side effect of being raised in that dominant Euro-American culture is the self-perception that "I'm an American; I don't have a culture." This is actually untrue—European-American culture simply dominates social and behavioral norms and policies to such an extent that those who grow up immersed in it can be entirely unaware of the realities of other cultures.
Fortunately, initial cultural biases can be overcome via hard work and reflection. The necessary element for discarding pre-existing biases is a willingness to go through a process of rigorous self-appraisal in order to learn what needs to be changed to teach in a culturally responsive fashion. A good way to start this process is by writing down reflections about family history, upbringing, and interpersonal relationship styles and how one's experience may differ from the experience of a person raised in a different culture.
Eventually the focus of this reflection must turn toward one's ideas about and racism and bias. The culturally responsive educator should reflect on the fears, stereotypes, and biases that they have about individuals that are different from them. Once the educator can recognize that their own personal tastes are not objectively better than those favored by other cultures, they can begin to investigate and appreciate the traditions and values of those cultures.
Now take a deeper look into the cultures of your students. It's easy to be superficial and fall into the twin traps of over generalization and stereotyping when learning about the different cultures of your students. What is important to keep in mind is that each student's culture is dynamic and individualized.
A person's culture represents the sum of many spheres of influence, including context within history, gender, age, religion, family relationships, group memberships, cultural beliefs and practices, historical context, and level of education. To avoid stereotyping, the educator must view each student as possessing a personalized culture instead of as a member of a homogenous group. At first blush this may appear to be a daunting task, but in practice there are a variety of methods that can be employed to learn more about a student's cultural heritage and identity.
For example, classroom assignments can provide a primary window into a student's cultural beliefs. Writing assignments can play a significant role in gathering information about student thought patterns and tendencies. Interviews with family members, assignments asking students to write about learning experiences that occur outside of school, and assignments involving family stories and traditions all can play a significant role in unearthing information about a students' cultural heritage. Students' parents can often be solicited as sources of useful personal information and visiting the neighborhoods where diverse students live can help give educators an idea about the level of social support present and the types of challenges that the student might face outside of the classroom.
Consider how cultural differences might affect academic performance. A person's culture and upbringing has a profound effect on how they see the world and how they process information. This fact was discussed by Richard Nisbett in his work, The Geography of Thought: How Asians and Westerners Think Differently. Nisbett worked with psychologists in Japan and China and determined that the holistic way of viewing the world typical of many students from those countries differed from that of their American counterparts, who tended to view the world in parts or distinct classes of objects that could each be defined by a set of rules.

It's always interesting to see which fitness-related stories get picked up by the mainstream media. Often it's negative reports about fad diets, body-shaming and extreme workouts unattainable by mere mortals – after all, who doesn't like to tut-tut and roll their eyes at these misguided souls?
It's always good, therefore, to see more positive stories getting noticed. Recently, reports on 'augmented fitness' and 'entertrainment' have been gaining traction, in part due to the large crowds they are drawing. Kayla Itsines, a fitness instructor and PT from Adelaide, has been attracting thousands of devoted fans to her fitness tours at venues around the world, due in part to her legion of over 5 million Instagram followers. Sydney, meanwhile, recently saw the BUF Girls Bootcamp teaming up with a radio station to deliver what it describes as a 'fun and immersive fitness experience' to hundreds of women.
No strangers to mass fitness participation, the team at Les Mills have also embraced the concept of immersive fitness. As the company's Immersive Product Manager, Chris Richardson, explains; 'the trick is to actively engage the people attending our facilities by providing an environment that heightens the senses, creates the desire to repeat the experience and, most importantly, encourages them to share it with others.' Les Mills is using technology to do this in its audio-visual cycle class, THE TRIP.
What these differing options have in common is their delivery of inspiring experiences that take the chore out of working out and put the fun and community in. The fact is, many people do not enjoy exercising enough to make time to do it. The concept of distracting participants from the hard work by making fitness fun may not be new – but, evidently, there are always new ways to achieve it. Are you ready to get immersive?

Graham Goble knows it's a long way there, so Little River Band recruits John Farnham for the trip
ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED IN THE GEORGIA STRAIGHT, OCT. 14, 1983
When, after releasing six albums, a group loses both its original lead singer and lead guitarist, there's a good chance a large number of longtime fans will be next to go. But that shouldn't be the case with the Little River Band, for as Vancouver audiences witnessed this week at the Orpheum Theatre, the group's recent personnel changes have only helped strengthen them.
When guitarist David Briggs and vocalist Glenn Shorrock left LRB, the band was faced with quite a challenge. But they rose to the occasion by recruiting talented Aussie axeman Stephen Housden and dynamic singer John Farnham–the result being that the group's lovely harmonies and meticulous arrangements have never sounded better.
The group's seventh LP, The Net, on which Farnham and Housden make their vinyl debut, has already produced one hit with the soulful power-pop tune "We Two". And the sextet have just released the funky "You're Driving Me Out of My Mind" as the second single.
Before their Vancouver appearance I spoke to guitarist/vocalist Graham Goble–the writer of such hits as "It's a Long Way There", "Reminiscing", and "The Night Owls"–over the phone from Grand Forks, North Dakota. I asked him about the recently separated band members, the new ones, and The Net.
Why did Glenn Shorrock leave the Little River Band after the recording of the Time Exposure album?
Well, we just got to the point in our career where we didn't want to work together anymore. We'd been together six, seven years, and it was just time for him to go his own way. We also had personality problems and musical differences.
Were you sad to see him go?
Naw. I mean, I like Glenn very much as a person, but it just wasn't working out creatively. So it was best for everybody that he left.
What's he doing now?
He's got a solo album out, just released on Capitol.
Have you heard it?
Yeah, it's good.
How did you happen to find John Farnham, your current lead vocalist?
Well, I produced an album for John in 1981, and working with him then was a great experience. John has been very big star in Australia for many, many years, so he's well known to everyone.
How do Glenn and John differ as singers?
Glenn's more of a straight rock singer and pop vocalist, whereas John's a much more versatile singer. He's got a lot more capability and facility in his voice. And overall he's just a more dynamic performer, I believe.
Glenn Shorrock composed some of Little River Band's most popular songs–"Help Is On Its Way" and "Cool Change". Do you expect John Farnham will become an active member of the group's songwriting team?
Well, no–John's not the writer that Glenn was. But he has written a couple of songs that are very good. So it's not beyond possibility that John could write a hit for us.
I wanted to ask you about the little track of your new album. What exactly is "the net"?
The net's the computer age. And it's not so much a negative thing; it's more of a warning, I guess. Actually, it's a statement of fact–that the computer age is fast removing jobs and taking over the control of our existence. It's just a statement of what's happened to society today.
I really like the new album. It's got a funky feel to it that I don't think the previous albums really had.
No, well we've gone deliberately for that. And with the new lead guitarist as well, it's a natural thing that we should have a change in sound.
Speaking of your new guitarist, Stephen Housden, who did you find him?
Well Stephen was playing in his own band, and they did a backup for us on an Australian tour. We just got to know him and were very impressed with his playing.
Australia has really come into its own as a sort of spawning ground for world-class groups. Do you have any theories as to why it happened so fast down there?
Well, I think it's timing. I think that it's the situation where for many years we've had a lot of great acts down in Australia that just–for whatever reasons–have not had the avenue to get them to the international market. It's just finally happened that acts from Australia are getting a good listen to now. We've had a couple of real good acts that have put it all together with some good songs and got out.
Which bands or artists do you enjoy listening to in your spare time?
Well, I don't listen a lot in my spare time, but of the recent people I like the Eurythmics. And I like Michael Jackson. But I spend most of my time listening to older product. I don't like a lot of the new records that are out.
Which older stuff do you mean?
Oh, everything from Frank Sinatra, Abba… And just great songs from the past, not any particular act. Going right back, I have a very wide taste in music.
Who were your biggest musical influences when you were starting out?
Well, I think that all of us were of the age where the Beatles were a big influence on all of us. A lot of the English acts were, and in the seventies we got on to more of the American acts.
When you mentioned Michael Jackson and the Eurythmics it reminded me of videos. Does the Little River Band have any videos out?
No, we don't have anything on the same level as that. On our very next album we will be doing videos. The video thing has really exploded very quickly, and on the last album we didn't really have the time to organize our videos. So we didn't have any.
The Little River Band seems to me to be a band without an image–like there's no gimmicks and things. Do you think video can bring a band's message across without sensationalizing it?
I think it's a very very important part of the industry today. I mean, what it's done for Men at Work and Michael Jackson is very obvious. It's something that virtually goes hand in hand with the release of new products now. It's got to that point where you virtually have to have a video.
The Little River Band's first big hit, a song you wrote, was called "It's a Long Way There". Has it been?
Well life is, isn't it. Yeah, I mean this is our twelfth Americans tour, and the career is still sort of on the upward swing. You see, the industry has changed a great deal since 1976, when we started. And we have had to reassess ourselves and relook at our approach to music. And because of this, the change in the band's sound that was evident on The Net is going to be even more so. We have added a permanent keyboard player to the band now, David Hirschfelder, and we are going to be a lot more keyboard-oriented on the next album–as is most of the new music.

About Daughters of the King
Have a Listen!
Daughters of the King were formed in June 2016, and began by ust a few teenage girls meeting together regularly to sing. Since that time, they have evolved to become the ensemble they are today. Their primary goal is to use their God-given gift of singing and music to bless others.
Over the years, DOTK has performed at many events including festivals, eisteddfods, nursing homes, community fates and fairs, work functions, Christmas parties, birthdays and weddings. Some of their performance highlights include placing first at the Dandenong Festival of Music and Art for Youth in 2007, Mordiallic Eisteddfoc in 2007, the Inaugural South Eastern Arts Festival in 2010, and West Gippsland Eisteddfod in 2013, 2014, 2016 and 2019. They were also awarded the perpetual trophy for the 'Most Promising Choir' at the West Gippsland Eisteddfod in 2013 and 2014.
Other highlights include their 10th anniversaty concert, celebrated in 2016 (with alumni of the choir) and releasing their first album 'Good Company' in 2017.
In 2017, DOTK Chamber singers was birthed which provided an opportunity for girls over the age of 13 to sing more challenging repertoire and extend their musical knowledge and understanding. This also provided leadership opportunities for the girls as the Student Conductor Program commenced in 2019.
They are hoping to release their second album in 2021.

easyMoney is not a cash savings account.
The easyMoney platform matches carefully selected property professionals looking to borrow short term finance (3-24 months) for business purposes, backed against UK property, with investors looking to invest.
The easyMoney senior team has many years of experience in property and property lending and undertakes rigorous due diligence on all borrowers and the properties against which your money is lent.
All investments contain an element of risk and we have broken them down for a better understanding.
The target return is the interest rate we are currently targeting to achieve on loans in a portfolio. There will typically be periods during which your money will be held in cash before we are able to fully allocate it to loans (known as "cash drag"). This can happen both when you invest initially and once a loan is repaid and we need to re-invest the proceeds. The actual rate of return you receive will be lower than the loan interest rate where cash drag occurs. The actual rate of return will also be adversely affected if for example there are any defaults, if there is a fall in the value of the property or if you have to pay tax on the interest you receive. Any changes to the current target rates will be advertised on our website.
We reserve the right to close any offer and to launch a new offer at any time. Returns are subject to change from time to time, entirely at our discretion. Any new products or changes to existing products will be displayed on our website.
If you do not wish to re-lend your money on new advertised product terms, as amended from time to time, you must remember to switch off your auto invest button to avoid your monies being automatically invested on the new product terms.
On development loans, we lend a maximum of (1) 75% of the initial value of the property, plus (2) 100% of construction costs. Total lending under (1) and (2) (including all interest, fees and other costs) is capped at 70% of the anticipated Gross Development Value (namely the price that the valuer anticipates the developed property will sell for).
Valuations are generally undertaken by a Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyor's (RICS) valuer. Valuations are the valuer's opinion of the value at date of valuation and are subject to change over time. If the value of a property against which you have lent falls, the borrower may find it harder to sell or refinance the property.
Bridge loans lend against the initial value of the property. Any building or development works generally have to be paid for by the property owner.
Property development loans can potentially carry more risk than bridge loans because you are reliant on the developer, his project manager, contractors and other professionals to undertake the construction diligently and expeditiously. Unforeseen problems and changes in circumstances can also occur during the construction and sales process which could potentially result in their being insufficient monies to repay the loan. A professional monitoring surveyor is appointed to make regular site visits during the construction process and is responsible for identifying and reporting on any potential issues as they occur.
easyMoney undertakes detailed due diligence before entering into any loan on your behalf, but if for any reason a loan becomes non-performing, we will work with the borrower to recover any missed interest payments. If necessary, as a last resort we will commence repossession proceedings in order to sell the property. If the property is not in a completed state, it may be necessary for easyMoney to take over and complete the development in order to maximise the return. This may take some months.
Your interest and capital are not guaranteed and there could be a shortfall if for any reason there is a delay in investing funds into underlying loans or the property is sold for less than the outstanding sums owed as a result of fraud, property market fall, erroneous valuation, non-delivery of development milestones etc. Your investment is not covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS).
Sometimes, for various reasons, underlying borrowers can be late in paying their monthly interest. In this event we may, at our discretion, pay interest to investors on behalf of the underlying borrower for up to two months. If two monthly payments are missed by the borrower, then easyMoney will categorise the loan as being in default. We will work with the borrower to recover any missed payments and to obtain repayment of the loan. As a last resort we will repossess and sell the property.
We shall use our reasonable endeavours to diversify your portfolio of loans. We do this by selling part of your initial loan portfolio and re-investing into new loans coming onto the platform over time. The diversification level may change from time to time according to the number of loans available and their performance. The diversification process may take a period of months to achieve. Until then, your money will be concentrated in a smaller number of loans, meaning that the impact of any individual non-performing loan on your overall investment will be greater. You can view your loan portfolio and any cash held on your 'My Portfolio' page.
The management of any conflict of interest is important to us. In order to have a pool of loans available for Regular, IFISA and Pensions investors ("platform investors") we have arrangements in place with a number of established professional investors to underwrite loans. As these investors typically provide larger sums on a medium to long-term basis, they receive a higher interest rate than platform investors. We make sure that no platform investor gets priority over any other platform investor based on any factor other than the time at which they place their investment.
Any money waiting to be allocated to loans will be held within segregated client accounts at NatWest and, if NatWest were to become insolvent during this period, your cash would be covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) until it is invested.

They are said to have pay, it doesn't really say they were paid.
Also the mujahideen were also said to have been paid for fighting the Russians, even invited to the White House...
The "liberated" Afghan nation couldn't pay either, so no more mujahideen, now becomes taliban
Screwed left, right and centre
That's a fair point, and I know these are religious extremists , but they have to be paid something, how can they support their family's if they aren't paid.
Is this what you were talking about when you said the US was also offering bounties, because I knew about this.

This is another big piece of bad news before election time.
Is it? I haven't been able to find any pieces that are claiming a spike in casualties that might be related to this mercenary scheme. I keep telling you guys... the media don't have the power they did in 2016. The sheer volume of frantic, negative reporting that very often is short on factual basis has burned the credibility of the media. Trump may need a miracle to win but I've learned to never count him out.
If the civil unrest that is being fomented by Marxist BLM continues or expands, especially if Biden continues to be a no-show, enough Americans may be keen to have ANYONE who is trying to impose law and order. Time will tell.

Yes I know that these lists exist, but most of these people are criminals, and I understand that the word criminal can certainly be interpreted differently by different people. While I do not know for certain that there are classified lists of people who the United States will pay money for their capture, if the lists are classified it kinda defeats the purpose of putting a bounty on them. Unless there are special organizations that have access to that classified information so that they can hunt them, now I am not saying that isn't possible, but I really know nothing about it and I have never heard it until you just brought it.

Duncan there are 36 countries currently supporting the US Mission in Afghanistan, if they all are being targeted you would not see a spike in numbers, because when Soldiers are killed only US, UK, and German forces are reported by our media. I have never seen reports of casualties from any of the other countries supporting the US Mission. I also do not think this situation is made up by the media for the sole intent of discrediting President Trump. I believe that Putin cant be trusted and neither can his Security Forces. I believe they did this for the sole purpose of disrupting negotiations between the US and the Taliban, it has already been proven that the Russians were suppling weapons to the Taliban, so this isn't a far stretch from that.
If it wasn't true, the White House would be openly denying it, but they are not, they are only saying that President Trump and VP Pence were never briefed about any of it. Now if you believe that something of this nature would not have been brought to the Presidents attention, I have Some Ocean Front Property in Arizona I will sell you for pennies on the dollar. My only question is why didn't they report this to our Allies, the reason I say this is because the UK said they just learned about it like everyone else when this news story broke. I also don't understand why if this information was gathered in March, why no action was taken concerning Russia's involvement, I mean something like this can not be allowed to go unanswered, like it has. This makes our President and our country look very weak.
Now to your question about spikes in Casualties, this can be answered very easily our soldiers are better than those Camel Riding b******* in Afghanistan in all respects. We have better security, both Arial and Ground so there is no proof they haven't tried, and also you can count deaths from IED's which have taken the lives of some of our soldiers recently. I suspect over the next week things will become more clear, now one thing I did not mention, is where the information came from. The information was obtained by the Interrogation of Captured Taliban Insurgents, and from other criminals that support the Taliban. This is published in some of the links I provided in the OP.
Here is a link that show's all Troop Numbers that are currently supporting the US Mission in Afghanistan listed by their country of origin and dated Jun 2020.

@Captain Risky @and thenBreaking news this morning, it is being reported that the Taliban are being paid bounties to kill Coalition Soldiers in Afghanistan. The Coalition consists of Soldiers from many countries see the link listed below. A Russian military unit secretly sought to offer rewards to Taliban-linked militants to incentivize them to hunt and kill coalition forces in Afghanistan as the Trump administration engaged in peace talks to end the nearly two-decade long war, U.S. intelligence officials have reportedly concluded. President Trump and other intelligence officials on the National Security Council reportedly discussed the matter in a meeting in late March, where they weighed a series of potential responses. However, no formal steps have been made, the Times reported. ( Note --- President Trump and Vice President Pence say they were not Briefed on this Situation )
Some officials theorized the efforts could be to destabilize the West or take revenge for pro-Syria forces being killed when advancing on an American outpost in 2018, or keep the U.S. tied up in a war in Afghanistan by thwarting peace talks, according to the Times. The Kremlin has not officially commented on the reports, saying that they will do so if they see the U.S. make accusations. The Department of Defense and CIA declined to comment on the Times story. NSC and the State Department also declined to comment. The officials described the intelligence to the Times as a "closely held secret," but the small group with knowledge of the covert attack expanded this week after the British government, which was also targeted, was briefed on the matter.
The officials also told the Times they are unclear how high up orders went in the Russian government, but said it appears to be part of Russia's military intelligence agency, the G.R.U., known as Unit 29155.This unit reportedly is filled with highly experienced military officials, some dating back to the Soviet Union days, and their actions tend to be more violent than actions like cyberattacks. The unit is believed to be behind the poisoning of Sergei Skripal, a former G.R.U. officer who defected. Skripal and his daughter were poisoned with a nerve agent in England in 2018.
According to NATO, there are 15,937 Coalition Soldiers in Afghanistan as of June 2020, of which 8,000 are American Soldiers, 1300 are German Soldiers, 950 are UK Soldiers, along with Soldiers from many other Nations.
Below is the Breaking News outlining Russia's involvement in putting bounties on the head of Coalition Soldiers in Afghanistan:

Here is a link that identifies the Coalition forces currently in Afghanistan as of June 2020 according to NATO:
https://www.nato.int/nato_static_fl2014/assets/pdf/2020/6/pdf/2020-06-RSM-Placemat.pdf
Several countries have proxy wars in Syria including the UK, USA, France, Russia, Iran, and Saudi Arabia. I dont get why people are so astonished to find out that the Russians have been funding one in Afghanistan. It goes both ways because we arent exactly innocent when it comes to indulging in this game ourselves.
I also dont get why Trump is under criticism for not tackling the Russian influence with the Taliban because there is pretty much nothing he could do about it. Those who think NATO is supreme have already been shown up once when Russia took the Crimea and there was nothing we could do about that either. Russia is a powerful country, it acts in its own national interest and that includes taking measures to secure its own geopolitical interest.
Sanctions on Russia wont work, the crux of its economy is oil and gas which unfortunately most EU countries cannot do without. Bearing in mind the Russians also have problems with Islamic terrorism it would have made more sense to bring them onboard during the War on Terror. Turning them into a partner rather than opponent would have got the job done a lot sooner too.
When the EU backed the coup in Ukraine favouring the pro-EU side they overlooked at how the Russian naval base in the Crimea is strategically important to Russia. Losing that base would have meant the loss of access to the Mediterranean. Instead of the annexation of Crimea the EU should have dropped its military superiority complex and said we will let Russia keep its Crimean naval base along with access to it.

Don't really see you point, how does this make the Taliban look good, and how do you know that some of the recent US Deaths were not part of this bounty program.
It shows us that taliban are acting on behalf of Russia and if Russians stop funding them, they will stop attacking usa, taliban are innocent people who are being misled by Russians, this kind of argument could be made so that usa could continue negotiations with the terrorists and then even pay taliban not to attack usa soldiers, kind of protection money.

Just a couple of points... Trump is going to be attacked by the global media no matter what decision he takes, that's a given. As to it making our country look weak, with the level of preparedness at all time highs, our adversaries aren't going to be lining up to attack us.
I've mentioned how I think he should respond. What would your response be?
Biden Criticizes Trump for not action on the situation of the Bounties placed on US Troops by Russia,
Someone should ask Joe, how would you respond? I mean, he wants to sit in the big chair so he should answer some questions, too. I'm really not concerned with the politics around this. A couple of years ago, our Air Force killed between 200 and 400 Russian mercenaries in Syria. THAT was a humiliation for Putin. That little man is always going to bide his time until he can sink the knife DEEP when it looks like someone disrespected him. I guess I just don't see this petty action by Russia as being worthy of risking a wider conflict that could potentially go nuclear. You pick your battles.

Yes, but was the head of the USSR sucking up to the current American presidents while the USSR was at war against mujaheddin, supported by the US?
The question is not if the current fights in Afghanistan are more or less fair than they were, the question is why is current American president either willing to act like he didn't know Russia is at proxy war with the US in Afghanistan, either really didn't know. As it is usual with Trump, it's impossible to tell which option is worse.

But the timing of this Russian interference in Afghanistan to turn attention of the blatant internal conflict in the Us is incredible !
It wasn't Russian statement that they're paying bounty for American heads, it's info collected by American intelligence. So it is the fact, Russia's paying for American heads. No, it's not shocking. Their money, their problem. The shocking part is that the president of the US is trying to drag Russia into G7, while knowing they're directly responsible for more motivated killings of Americans (and allies). It's equally or even more shocking that there's the possibility Trump was oblivious of that information.

Q: SQLite Query with Python 1 I have generated a list and able to generate the result:
l = [2, 3, 5, 2009 ]

cur1 = cur.execute('SELECT * from table where + or '.join(('Code = ' + str(n) for n in l)))

However, I want to put in another query in the same statement as follows:
cur1 = cur.execute('SELECT * from table where '
**'Timestamp in (select max(timestamp) from table)'**
+ ' or '.join(('Code = ' + str(n) for n in l)))

but generated
 sqlite3.OperationalError: near "Code": syntax error.

Please kindly advise how I can fit Timestamp statement into the first statement in order to focus on the query result which I want.

A: Your first was false and the second is of course false too.
>>> 'SELECT * from table where + or '.join(('Code = ' + str(n) for n in l))
>>> 'Code = 2SELECT * from table where + or Code = 3SELECT * from table where + or Code = 5SELECT * from table where + or Code = 2009'

It's not a valid SQL statement.
SQLite SELECT equal to one of two values
The right query statement should be:
SELECT * FROM table WHERE Code in ('2', '3', '5', '2009')

You will get it with:
cur.execute('SELECT * FROM table WHERE Code in ?', str(tuple(str(i) for i in l)))

Now you can use the same parameter for your second statement.
P/S: There is a better solution, but i don't have SQLite database to check it.

Why do Indians refrain from touching books,papers & money with feet?
Why are We Forbidden from touching Books, Papers and Money with our Feet ?
O Goddess Saraswati, the giver of Boons and fulfill-er of wishes, I prostrate to You before starting my studies. May you always fulfill me?
Indians consider knowledge, very sacred and divine and are thus very conscious when touching books or anything that contains knowledge. For Hindus, Goddess Saraswathi is the Goddess of learning and they pray to her for academic as well as spiritual knowledge. Indians also believe that she bestows clarity of thought and nobility of ideas on them. They thus pray to her to gain knowledge, dispassion, devotion and prosperity.
May Saraswathi, the Goddess of knowledge, who is ever praised by the wise, who have mastered the scriptures, who is the embodiment of the Vedas ( or the consort of Lord Brahma ), live on the tip of my tongue.
Why are We Forbidden from touching Books or Papers with our Feet ?
Indians are forbidden from touching Books with their feet because books provide them with knowledge. If by accident, a book or a paper gets touched by your feet, it is a mark of disrespect and touching it in manner of praying is like apologizing to the book as well as the deity. One of the most fundamental features of Hinduism, is personification. Hinduism personifies virtually every aspect of life. The wind is not just air blowing from high pressure to low pressure. It is a god, Vayudeva. The sun is not just a great nuclear reaction in space. It is the sun god, Suryadeva. Similarly, the rain is a god, the moon is a god, all the planets are gods and every other aspect of reality is subject to personification. Therefore, all things of learning: papers, books, musical instruments, pens, typewriters and even computers can be seen as an aspects of the Goddess of learning, Saraswati Devi.
Why are We Forbidden from touching Money with our Feet ?
In the 21st century, money has become everything. The sole purpose of our survival has now become money. We can't eat,drink or even bathe properly if we don't have money.This is the reason why touching money with feet is considered disrespectful. Same can be said for gold, since the only viable currency in the ancient and medieval times was gold and gold coins.
Why are We Forbidden from touching People with our Feet ?
Not just touching, Indians are not allowed to even point their feet towards any person.The reason for this is very simple. Our feet are very unclean. The dirt on our feet makes it bad to touch anyone with our feet. The reason why Indians are prohibited from even pointing their feet to any person is that it gives a very bad impression to the person. It shows that you do not have any respect for that person. According to the Indian tradition and culture, It is bad manners to do it.

Last evening our church had the privilege of shining the the light of Christ on our street corner during the annual "trick or treat" night here in the city. It was a wonderful blessing to sing songs about Jesus Christ as many people paraded by. The children and several of the adults had the fun of handing out packets with a gospel cd, tracts, toy etc to the other children coming down the street. Many people smiled and wave while the occasional person was reluctant to give us his "blessing".
One person suggested that we are ruining it for the children. As I thought about that I found myself asking this question, "so how where we ruining it for the children?" Sure we were there singing, but up and down the streets of Altoona were others who had stereos outside playing their music, lots of it being heinous sounds of supposed tortured ghosts in chains. We weren't rebuking people, and even more, our faces weren't disguised by some frightening mast and so the children actually were seeing bright smiling faces! Some of the costumes that I saw going by were enough to strike fear in an adults heart, much less a child's heart! So, tell me, how where we ruining if for the children? Well, we weren't meeting the status quo for the evening and by our actions we were rebuking the darkness of this world. You see, the prince of this world want us to just accept this holiday as normal when he knows that if he can just get us to enter into the celebrations he has another string around us in the web that he is weaving. But this is just a "thing for the children" many people say, buy I beg to disagree. Look around, are children the only ones who celebrate this holiday? No! the adults are very involved and a honest look at the costumes and Halloween parties reveal that this holiday is nothing more than an excuse to sin! Here is an article to read where Brother Edwin Eby digs into the history of Halloween.

Cellphone Garage Door Opener February 29, These days, we use our cell phones for everything and always seem to have them near. They seem to have morphed from a simple communication tool to an electronic swiss army knife, capable of just about anything, some useful and some kind of pointless. One seemingly very convenient application we've found is to set up your phone as a garage door opener. There are actually a few different ways this can be undertaken, so we thought we'd walk you through a few of the most popular set-ups just to get you started.
New Opener with Built-in WiFi If you're looking to revamp your garage or you're starting from scratch, new garage door openers are commonly being made with built-in WiFi all ready to be set up to use with your cell phone, or even a computer or tablet.

Add-on WiFi Receiver If you're not quite up for installing an entire new system, you can buy an add-on receiver that can connect to your existing model. They will hook up with your home internet and work similar to the built-ins with long distance control and cell phone applications.
These DIY receivers generally only require connecting a few wires then syncing with your router. An excellent choice if your somewhat electronically inclined and looking to save a few bucks. Bluetooth Receiver The final option we've found is the simple Bluetooth receiver.
Hook everything up, though, create an account at the AssureLink Web site, tie it into your new Craftsman garage door opener, and you've just set up an incredibly cool smart home device, a whisper quiet belt-drive system that lets you monitor your garage door from anywhere and gives you the control to open or close it from your mobile device.
