Just as I was deciding that I would need to man the other vehicles to get some security out, I heard the chatter of machine-gun fire coming from the west side of the compound, followed by the popping of M-4s. Just as its predecessor has been a hallmark of military instruction, The Defense of Jisr al-Doreaa will draw the road map for counterinsurgency in the postmodern world. I stumbled across this book while looking to replace my copy of Swinton's The Defence of Duffer's Drift which I appeared to have misplaced over the years. When Forethoughts men fired their weapons the enemy died, when the enemy fired at them they died, when he adjusted his tactical defense, it caused the enemy to react, and in order to keep the locals from speaking to Boer commandos, he basically locked them up so they couldnt provide information to the commandos. From the lessons they learned during multiple tours of duty in Iraq, two American veterans have penned The Defense of Jisr al-Doreaa, an instructional parable of counterinsurgency that addresses the myriad of difficulties associated with war in the postmodern era. Military leaders today face a myriad of complex situation on the battlefield. Security is the number one priority.
And very useful to the arm chair generals community. Just as its predecessor has been a hallmark of military instruction, The Defense of Jisr al-Doreaa will draw the road map for counterinsurgency in the postmodern world.

As I war-gamed a valiant firefight in my head, I was brought back to the task at hand by Red 2, my senior scout. My ears were ringing; everything seemed to be moving in slow motion: dirt, rocks, sand, concrete, and ash were pelting me.
The Defense of Jisr Al-Doreaa is very similar to Swinton's work, but set in the modern counter-insurgency setting of Iraq. Cavalry where he controlled the densely populated and volatile Adhamiyah region in the heart of Baghdad. The days of a dug-in tank defense were over.

Wrestler Navid Afkari could have been representing Iran in Tokyo this week. Instead they hang him.
'If I am executed, I want you to know that an innocent person, even though he tried and fought with all his strength to be heard, was executed.'
Navid Afkari was a wrestling champion in Iran and his success in his country's No1 sport made him a hero.
But in 2018, Afkari was arrested after taking part in widespread protests against the Iranian regime.
He said he was tortured into confessing to murder and Amnesty International said his trial was 'grossly unfair.'
Donald Trump and major sporting powers tried to intervene but Afkari was hanged last September, aged 27.
Now, his name is used as focal point for those continuing their resistance against Iran's rulers.
READ THE ARTICLE HERE
In a voice recording that leaked from his jail, Afkari said: 'If I am executed, I want you to know that an innocent person, even though he tried and fought with all his strength to be heard, was executed.'
jJohn Bellamy Comments:
Any country that takes gay men to the top of tall buildings and throw them to their deaths JUST BECAUSE THEY ARE GAY - is a country stuck in the middle ages of ignorance perpetrated by the unbalanced religious views held by those in power and nothing - NOTHING - will deter them from spreading hatefilled misinterpretations of the Koran and where lies and bullshit and misinformation are taken as gospel if spoken by the right leader, and blindly, followers follow without question. Maybe back in the middle ages the UK was much the same. The ignorant masses followed the Bishops and Cardinals and mass murdered tens of thousands over the centuries and all at the behest of the church.
And all supposedly in God's name.
OUTSTANDING how a religion can instill murder, torture and all sorts of murderous acts against their fellow man and for why - because they said something that is considered against Islam or Mohamed or even Allah as if these dead prophets are not man enough to take a little ribbing - and those who are murdered for being an oponent of the
regime or simply someone having an opinion and voicing it, as well as the gay man, and all this is so desperately tragic.
It annoys when I see these fucked up opionated faggots in London and Brighton lording it up and showing off and bragging and - generally - offering a vile attitude of gay men and the arrogance, the attitude SUCKS - and when you look at the murder and torure that is still going on around the world, our job is not done by any means and we must never be complacent - as look at how fast things reverted backwards under Trump. It can happen. The tide can turn.
Opinions warped by disassociated minds determined to destroy. Mass murder is just a thought away.
So pray for this man and others like him still suffering at the hands of the ignorant religious madmen in various countries - gagging for attention and determined to stamp out the evil they see with a different even worse form of evil, and one they cannot see is evil at all which actually makes it - EVEN MORE UNGODLY AND EVIL and these men call themselves Holy Men, Preachers, Clerics, Mullahs and yet spew evil rhetoric against anything and everything including women in their own country and the male dominated society, made up of little boys - rules and murders and threatens and more - and it so saddens me and makes me so very greatful I was born in the UK as I would have been long executed by now had I been born in Iran.
The LGBTQ war is far from over guys. Time to wake up and realise how lucky we are in the UK and stop your fucking moaning and cut out to arrogant fucked up attitude. You are very very lucky. Time now to help others.

Q: Mocking private field of a class I have the following field in my class
@Resource(name = "lobIdCancellationNodeMap")
private Map<String, List<String>> lobIdCancellationNodeMap;

After this line we have directly accessed this field lobIdCancellationNodeMap
I am not able to set value for this using Mockito, and there is no construtor available which can set this value.
This is how it is used
lobIdCancellationNodeMap.get(lobId)

I am not allowed to change implementation class

A: While I agree with the notes by other users that it seems wrong to be testing something that isn't public-facing, I do have some sympathy for the "I am not allowed to change implementation class" situation.
The @Resource annotation is designed to be used to have the application inject an instance at runtime. I would suggest you set up your tests with a context that is similar to that of your application at runtime. This way, this class will have its resource injected.
Failing that, you could probably use Reflection to set the value to the value you require.

A: I have solved this problem by using ReflectionTestUtils class provided by spring framework using this you can set any field of the class irrespective of its access modifier.
ReflectionTestUtils.setField(mapper, "lobIdCancellationNodeMap", lobIdCancellationNodeMap);

When upgrading to 3.0 the Modern subtheme will be the default one. If you want to change it back to the Classic subtheme, goto the Apperance -> Theme Settings -> General tab and change the subtheme to Classic in the dropdown menu.
Please note that this issue only applies if you had made any custom Typography changes in the Adsense Pro Ultimate 2.0 theme settings.
With the release of the 3.0 version of the Adsense Pro Ultimate theme came the new subtheme functionality included in the theme. Because each subtheme now stores its own Typegraphy settings in the database, earlier Typegraphy settings cannot be transferred to the 3.0 version.
So if you had any custom changes in 2.0 in the Appearance -> Theme Settings -> Typegraphy tab, these must be re-entered in the 3.0 version AFTER that you have selected the Classic subtheme as subtheme. This because that the Modern subtheme is the default subtheme.
Goto Appearance -> Theme Settings -> Adsense and you will see the settings in the screenshot below.
The first group of options let you enable/disable different ad units.
After the first group of options comes each ad unit. Here you can add or change the code for the Header Link Unit, the Sidebar Ad Unit and the Incontent Ad Unit. The code for each banner is found on your Google Adsense page and then you copy and paste it in.
Please note that the recommended ad sizes are indicated in parenthesis after the ad unit name, like for instance 468px (width) x 15px (height) for the Header Link Unit. But you can of course experiment with own sizes aswell.

Q: Cordova File Transfer creates the empty file then stops I have an object with file data I generate in a function that's structured like this:
fileData[0]['location'] = "/path/to/save/to/"
fileData[0][0] = "http://fileurl.com"
fileData[1]['location'] = "/path/to/save/to/"
fileData[1][0] = "http://fileurl.com"
fileData[2]['location'] = "/path/to/save/to/"
fileData[2][0] = "http://fileurl.com"
...

There's about 188 in total right now.
I run a second function that I pass the object to that starts from the bottom up, extracts the location, creates the directory, then passes data to a function to process the download. Once the download is complete it's supposed to remove the current item from the object, send the object back to the previous function and repeat until the object is empty.
function startDownload(fs, instlData) {
    delete instlData.__proto__;
    var currentLoc = getObjSize(instlData) - 1;
    var fileUrl = instlData[currentLoc][0];
    var fileLoc = instlData[currentLoc]['location'];

    var fileName = fileUrl.substring(fileUrl.lastIndexOf("/") + 1);
    var filePath = fs.winpath + fileLoc + '/';

    fs.root.getDirectory("/" + fileLoc, { create: true }, function (dirEntry) {

        downloadFile(fileUrl, filePath, fileName, fs, instlData, currentLoc);

    }, function (err) { console.log(err); });

}

function downloadFile(fileUrl, filePath, fileName, fs, instlData, currentLoc) {
    var fileLoc = filePath + fileName;

    $cordovaFileTransfer.download(encodeURI(fileUrl), fileLoc, {}, true)
    .then(function (result) {
        console.log('success');
        console.log(instlData);
        delete instlData[currentLoc];
        startDownload(fs, instlData);
    }, function (err) {
        console.log('error');
        console.log(instlData);
        console.log(err);
        delete instlData[currentLoc];
        startDownload(fs, instlData)
    }, function (progress) {
        console.log('process');
        console.log(progress);
    });
}

}, false);
I'm running everything on deviceready per the docs. I've ran console.log() on the variables and all the urls are correct.
fs.root.getDirectory("/" + fileLoc, { create: true }, function (dirEntry) creates the directory as expected and $cordovaFileTransfer.download(encodeURI(fileUrl), fileLoc, {}, true) creates the empty placeholder file but it's never written to. As a matter of fact, nothing happens. No error, not process log, nothing. It doesn't even iterate to the next item... just stops.
If I provide anything that's not a URL (such as just removing "http://" from the file url) it will iterate through all the items, create all the placeholders, and create all the directories. Obviously the file is empty because it's not a valid url.
I even tried the test file in the ngCordova example (http://cdn.wall-pix.net/albums/art-space/00030109.jpg)

Freedom to Annoy
January 25, 2018 PeterCatherine Deneuve, current events, human rights, sexuality
How often it happens that social attitudes swing like a pendulum from one extreme to another. The child who was spanked, chooses not to spank their offspring — making a statement against their parents. An industry that produces miniskirts one year puts out maxi-dresses the next. Mens suits favor wide lapels one year and narrow lapels the next. The child who lived in a home with scant resources is want to live as extravagant a life as possible. Trends do keep us on our toes.
From time to time I have chosen to write about male/female relations. I seems bizarre to me that men treat 1/2 of the human population as if they were some kind of undesirable minority to be victimized and taken advantage of. For those of you who don't know, I spend the better part of 5 years in my photo studio shooting discreet nudes. Surely, if there is a circumstance where the possibility of treating another human insensitively exists, it's going to be while one party is fully clothed and the other party isn't wearing a stitch. To say that I was extremely careful about how I dealt with my models — male and female — would be an understatement.
Consequently, the question: "how do you treat other people sensitively" has great meaning to me. I took extraordinary steps to make sure that the women & men I was working with felt comfortable in what could be a very uncomfortable situation. I think I succeeded because I'm still friends with most of my former models. But I have to say that after having been in that situation I am befuddled by some of the things I see and hear in public discourse.
At the end of this blog I am reposting a letter was published January 9, 2018 in Le Monde. I apologize for the translation, it's by Google and there are some choppy bits — but I wanted to use it to illustrate a point. I should mention as well,that Catherine Deneuve — who was a signatory to the original letter has since apologized to women who have suffered the humiliation and violation of rape. In her apology she was quick to note that her apology was to women who had been through these things — and not to anyone else. I think that is a point well made.
Subsequent to Deneuve's apology none other than Brigitte Bardot has called out the #METOO movement:
"Veteran French actress Brigitte Bardot has dismissed actresses who have commented on sexual harassment via the #MeToo movement as "hypocritical". The star was asked in an interview with French magazine Paris Match what she thought of actresses denouncing harassment in the film industry. "In the vast majority of cases they are being hypocritical, ridiculous, uninteresting," the 83-year-old said. "There are many actresses who flirt with producers in order to get a role." She added: "Then, in order to be talked about, they will say they have been harassed. In reality, rather than benefiting them, it harms them." "
— BBC News January 18, 2018
The fact that there is disagreement among women — particularly women who are in an industry that is particularly prone to harassment makes the point I want to think about this morning.
I suppose it was predictable the letter would produce a violent reaction — both supporters of #metoo and opponents of #metoo — because the "thing" about trending movements is that too often people don't listen to what is being said, or even have an idea of what the movement is really all about.
Instead they react from their gut to snippets out of context. Or to their imagination of what they think the another party is saying — never having actually listened to an opposing point of view and given it some thought. On a fundamental level huge public statements aren't what it takes to make lasting change. They are soundbites. And too many people make their public statements to gain a little notoriety for themselves that has nothing to do with the topic on which they are commenting — no more than flirting to get a role is seen as anything wrong when that is just sort of the inverse of sexual harassment.
But what bothers me is that the real problem is ignored because of all the public posturing. Sexual harassment in the workplace is but the tip of the mistreatment-of-women iceberg.
There are a lot of marriages (and affairs) that begin in the workplace. I'm not sure there will ever be a way of stopping flirting in the workplace. Drawing a proscribed line around clumsy flirtation in the name of stopping sexual harassment is doomed to failure. The instinct to procreate isn't going to be stifled that easily. We tried (in this country) to ban alcohol and we all know how that turned out. Banning behavior aimed at the propagation of the species isn't going to be any more successful. Men and women can be very clumsy about flirtation; I know I was for most of my life — probably still am.
But it's abuse we are talking about, right? Stepping over the line. It ought to be obvious that you don't go around putting your hands on people — I would never touch a model in the studio — and yet in a social setting, among people I've known for years a hug, or a pat on the shoulder/hand are so much a part of the culture I have been part of that I wonder what I would do if I was 20 instead of 68. Of course you can ask. Or you can watch the other person's eyes and demeanor for clues as to whether your friendliness is welcome or not. I've been in enough situations to know that women can telegraph the fact that you're overstepping their comfort zone without saying a word.
Personally, I have no idea why a woman would choose to wear something to work that exposes most of her cleavage, or a dress with a hem that's nearly up to her hoo-ha. I'm a guy, I was accustomed to going to work in long trousers, a long sleeve shirt, a tie, dress shoes, socks and a suit coat or sport coat. To me that was "business dress." For my gender. I never paid a lot of attention to other men — they too were covered to the hilt, as it were, with clothing. Women, not so much.
Most of my working life I was not in an office setting. For a few years I did spend my working hours in an office, and I can guarantee that all the men, myself included, spent more time looking at women than men. Typically they offered more interesting viewing: to be blunt — they showed off more. And no one on this earth can tell me that women are not aware of the fact that regardless of what they say about who they dress for men, they are aware of the reaction they produce. Much of the time they are glad to reap the results: after all, it's always ladies night at the bar, not gentleman' night, now isn't it? Often, women aren't afraid to use their looks to their advantage. So innocent protests about whether it should matter what someone is wearing are blatantly dishonest. If you know people are going to treat you differently because of how you dress, then dressing that way isn't as irrelevant as you'd like to make it sound. You can't both garner the benefits and complain about the consequences at the same time.
My point is simply this. You can go ahead and do whatever you want whenever you want. That's your free choice. And people — men and women — are supposed to behave in a respectful manner and not to abuse you — male or female, young or old, rich or poor. But I'll bet that many women will be careful to park in a well lit part of the parking structure; and that there are parts of town they may not frequent; they will avoid certain employees in the company who freak them out…. and yet they truly believe that it's a good idea to wear things that they can predict will draw attention to themselves. If in fact drawing attention to themselves is not the reason. It seems to me that's not a very smart move because not everyone is always going to do what they are supposed to. Doesn't it make a little bit of sense to be prudent in one's decisions?
The Le Monde letter makes the point that you can't outlaw the right to annoy someone. Human behavior is not always logical/rational/well thought out. We all do things that we ought not, from time to time. From speeding in an automobile to skipping ahead in a queue, failing to own up to the incorrect change a cashier gave you, or shoplifting something for kicks — humans just do stupid stuff from time to time. Guys are going to annoy women; just as women are going to annoy guys — often for very different reasons but the fact is the net result is the same. Yeah — it's wrong. But does anyone really think that they are going to push public behavior to the point that an occasional annoyance doesn't occur? Or to think that every annoyance deserves legal punishment?
I should not have to say this, but you realize I am not talking about illegal activity. I'm not encouraging sexual harassment — that is wrong, all the time, every time. But I do think there's a difference between harassment and stupid behavior. As a guy who grew up as the odd duck in his social group I'm here to say that embarrassing oneself in public isn't all that hard to do. I have long said I am Socially Obtuse. I don't alway see the social cues others seem to be aware of. So I can understand how people make mistakes that they certainly don't intend the way they are taken; in many areas of life — not just how you treat men or women.
One point I thought the letter made was that everything that happens does not make a person a victim. Most of the time we have no problem recognizing the difference between playful interchange and sexual harassment. Sometimes it doesn't even reach the level of flirting — sometimes people are just being clever or witty — not everything is the world relates to your genitals.
I wish there were more public discussion about what people want in the workplace. Censored stories about events from years ago aren't particularly helpful. Yes, equal pay in the workplace is a real goal. Fair treatment is a fair goal. But I'm not sure that the person who calls everyone of the opposite sex sweetie is "harassing" anyone — they are being inappropriate. And as someone who has been socially obtuse all my lifetime I understand that inappropriate happens. Some inappropriate behavior you're going to effectively change; but I doubt very much you'll ever wipe it out — no more than you'll wipe out idioms from the English Language or dialects. A part of our behavior IS idiom. We all say and do things that don't mean the dictionary definition of the words we use.
We have been retired for 6 years now. For 20 years before that I was either self-employed or working outside an office setting with any significant number of women. At the time Peggy would come home with information from her place of employment about sensitivity training, and equal rights in the workplace and on more than one occasion we talked about the difficulty in knowing what is expected or forbidden. It seemed as if the metaphorical goalposts kept moving — and that was as an outside observer who was not in the situation. Would I have understood better if I was in the situation? I have no idea. But it's not a new situation and it's not going to go away any time soon.
I'm glad people are talking about the proverbial elephants in the room. It helps to acknowledge them. How to deal with the elephant once you have acknowledged it's existence may not be easy, but you'll never accomplish anything until you say, "Oh Look — there's an elephant!"
Here is the article/letter:
"We defend the freedom to annoy, essential to sexual freedom"
In an article in "World", a group of 100 women, Catherine Millet, Ingrid Caven and Catherine Deneuve, affirms its rejection of a feminism that expresses "hatred of men."
Rape is a crime. But insistent or awkward flirting is not a crime, nor is gallantry macho aggression.
Following the Weinstein case a legitimate awareness of sexual violence exerted on women occurred, especially in the workplace, where some men abuse their power. It was necessary. But this speech today release turns into its opposite: we are talking intimate as it should, to silence the angry, and those who refuse to comply with such injunctions are regarded as traitors and accomplices!
Now this is the own of Puritanism than to borrow, on behalf of an alleged general good, the arguments of women's protection and empowerment for better chain them to an eternal status of victims, poor little things under the influence of demons male chauvinists, like old times of witchcraft.
Accusations and indictments
Indeed, #metoo resulted in the press and on social networks accusations a campaign and put in charge of public individuals that unintentionally leaves them the option or respond or defend themselves, have been exactly on the same plane as sex offenders. This summary justice already has its victims, men punished in the exercise of their profession, forced to resign, etc., while they were only fault that he hit one knee, tried to steal a kiss, spoke of things "intimate" during a business dinner or to have sent messages of a sexual nature to a woman for whom the attraction was not mutual.
This fever to send the "pigs" to slaughter, far from helping women empower themselves, actually serves the interests of the enemies of sexual freedom, religious extremists, the worst reactionaries and those who believe in the name of a substantial conception of good and Victorian morality that goes with it, that women are beings "apart", children in adult face, demanding to be protected.
In front, the men were ordered to beat their breasts and find, deep in their retrospective consciousness, "inappropriate behavior" they could have had here are ten, twenty or thirty years, and they should repent. The public confession, the incursion of self-appointed attorneys in the private sphere, that which installs as a climate of totalitarian society.
The wave of purification seems to know no limits. Here we censor a nude by Egon Schiele on a poster; here called the withdrawal of a painting by Balthus museum on the grounds that it would be an apology for pedophilia; in the confusion of the man and the work, asked the prohibition of retrospective Roman Polanski at the Cinematheque and obtain the postponement of that devoted to Jean-Claude Brisseau. A university considers the film Blow Up, Michelangelo Antonioni, "misogynist" and "unacceptable." In light of this revisionism, John Ford ( The Searchers ) and even Nicolas Poussin ( The Rape of the Sabine women ) do not lead off.
Already, publishers are asking some of us to make our male characters less "sexist", talking about sex and love with less excess or to ensure that the "trauma of the female characters" are more apparent! At the edge of ridiculous is legislation in Sweden that wants to impose an explicit notification by any party for sexual consent! Another effort and two adults who will want to sleep together should first check via an "app" on their phone a document in which practices they accept and reject those they will be properly listed.
Indispensable freedom to offend
The philosopher Ruwen Ogien defended freedom of offending essential to artistic creation. Similarly, we defend freedom to annoy, essential to sexual freedom. Today we are sufficiently informed to admit that the sexual drive is inherently offensive and wild, but we are also clear-sighted enough not to confuse awkward flirting and sexual assault.
Especially, we are aware that the human person is not monolithic: a woman can, in one day, lead a professional team and enjoy being sexual object of a man without being a "slut" or a vile accomplice of patriarchy. It can ensure that her salary is equal to that of a man, but does not feel traumatized forever by a shoe in the subway. A single incident can be considered either an expression of great sexual misery or as a non-event.
As women, we do not identify with this brand of feminism, beyond denouncing abuse of power, which takes the face of a hatred of men and sexuality. We believe that the freedom to say " no" to sexual proposal does not go without the freedom to annoy. And we think you need to know to answer this freedom to annoy other than retreating into the role of prey.
For those of us who choose to have children, we feel it is better to raise our girls so that they are sufficiently informed and aware in order to live full lives without being intimidated or guilty.
An accidental touch to a woman's body does not necessarily offend their dignity and should not, if they are hard sometimes necessarily make her a perpetual victim. For we are not reducible to our body. Our inner freedom is inviolable. And this freedom we cherish is not without risks and without responsibilities.


AR# 9309: PROM - Are the XC18V00 and XC1700 PROMs pin-compatible?
PROM - Are the XC18V00 and XC1700 PROMs pin-compatible?
Are the XC18V00, XC17S00, and XC1700 PROMs pin-compatible?
Given the same package footprint, the devices are pin-compatible, with the exception of the PC20 package.
For example, you can prototype with an XC18V04 PC44 ISP PROM, then replace this with a one-time-programmable (OTP) XC1704L PC44 PROM during production.
However, the reverse is not true. For example, you cannot replace a 1700 PROM with an 18V00, as the 18V00 has pins that must be driven that the 1700 does not have, such as extra VCC, GND, and VCCO pins. Please see the respective data sheets for details.


Find what e-mail aliases are and how they operate as part of your hosting account.
Making an email alias means setting up an e-mail address that shares the same mailbox as a completely different address for both the inbound as well as the outgoing e-mails. For instance, you're able to create an e-mail address sales@domain.com and it will be linked to its own mailbox. Then, you can make an alias support@domain.com, that can make use of the mailbox of sales@ and will not use a mailbox of its own. If you check your emails, you will see e-mails sent to either one of the two email addresses in one place, which can be far more convenient in some circumstances since you will not have to log in and out of different mailboxes using webmail or set up numerous email addresses in an email application. This option is frequently used as a substitute for forwarding e-mail messages from one e-mail address to another if multiple email addresses are mentioned for contact on a site.
With every single cloud web hosting plan we offer, it's possible to make tens or even hundreds of aliases for any mailbox you have created in the account. The process is quite simple you'll be able to create or remove aliases with just a few mouse clicks via our in-house made Hepsia Hosting Control Panel. This function will save you time because it will be more convenient to take care of the e-mails from different e-mail addresses that you use or that can be listed on your web site in a single place. Any time you reply, the other side will get an email from the alias, not coming from the main address linked to the mailbox. You'll be able to combine this option with e-mail filters or e-mail forwarding if you need a copy of some kinds of messages both in the original mailbox as well as in other separate email addresses.
Adding aliases to any of your email addresses is a piece of cake when you've got a semi-dedicated server package with our company and your e-mails are handled on our end. You can make or delete an alias through the Emails section of the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel, which is provided with each account. You can even have a lot of aliases, if you decide to manage a business, for example, every single worker can have their very own email, but all e-mails sent to them can be seen by everyone in a single mailbox. In this way, managing the e-mail communication with customers is less time-consuming and a lot more synchronized. When some of the e-mails need to get to other departments as well, it is possible to combine working with aliases together with our email forwarding option.

One could literally fill pages and write an epic on the virtually infinite number of accolades and awards the students and alumni have brought to this department over its recent years.
The department boasts the set of most brilliant students in the entire university. Graduates from this department have been regularly receiving various prestigious awards.
Since its transformation into a fully-fledged engineering department in December 2014, the department has then experienced a dramatic turn of events when some of its students stood up and initiated the culture of competitive robotics and projects.
EEE, DU always fosters a bright bunch of athletes, who train hard and help keep the name of the department shining. Winning the Championship trophy for five consecutive seasons in interdepartmental basketball competition is such an example.
The Department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering always provides its members with, in addition to regular academic activities, enormous opportunities to get themselves involved in different cocurricular activities throughout the year. Involvement and participation in different club activities is such an opportunity.
The department's own club, Electrical and Electronics Club (EEC), is the trademark student-run organization under the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, University of Dhaka. The club aims to provide a platform for the students who aim to stretch their academic knowledge beyond the classroom and apply it pragmatically to real world situations through interactions and brainstorming; "a complementary nourishment of the modern era".
Since its establishment in 2004, the club has been regularly organizing programming contests, circuit contests, workshops and seminars assisting the students to graduate as competent engineers and researchers and apply their knowledge practically.
There are also several groups, e.g., EEE Sports Group, EEE Cultural Group, etc, who are organizing different sports and cultural events throughout the year.
Also, the University of Dhaka has a number of clubs and societies, e.g, DU Research Society, DU Science Society, DU Photographic Society, Badhan, and so on, where the students of this department participate regularly.
The Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering provides a number of scholarship opportunities to the students of the department based on their academic performances and financial status.
Also, numerous merit-based financial support programs are available in the field of Engineering, both within and outside the University of Dhaka. EEE students frequently apply for and are often awarded with these scholarships and fellowships to offset educational costs associated with tuition and living.
"I am a student of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, University of Dhaka." – a wonderful statement that makes us proud. In fact, there are many reasons to believe it.
EEE, DU boasts the set of most brilliant students in the entire university. Graduates from this department have been regularly receiving various prestigious awards for their outstanding academic performances.
EEE, DU had always had a competitive spirit. Team Orion Gladiators (consisting of 49th and 50th Batch students) from EEE, DU have won Champion's/Runner's Up awards in a number of competitions recently.
EEE, DU hasn't just remained within national borders, but embraced globalization. Students from this department have traveled to China to visit the Huawei headquarters in China as a part of their "Seeds for the Future Program" in 2015 and 2016. Many students from our Department are currently studying in different well known Universities around the world acquiring their higher degrees.


We all know the stories. The princess falls in love with the prince. He rescues the damsel in distress from the tower or the dragon or the wicked queen … or anything at all really. The plot in many fairy tales relies on a woman in trouble needing a brave, strong man to rescue her.
I loved Disney as a child, and I still do, but it is clear that stories such as Snow White and Sleeping Beauty are based on gender stereotypes. They show children that women spend their time looking pretty, cooking and cleaning and that women need a man to look after them. These ideals are old-fashioned and outdated. I personally would feel uncomfortable teaching these values to children – boys or girls.
Luckily, Disney has clearly seen that their female characters were weak and helpless and their new films feature strong female characters. Tangled, which tells Disney's story of Rapunzel, was released in 2010. Rapunzel is an intelligent and creative 18 year old who asks a man to help her to visit the kingdom. Although he is helping her, she also helps and saves him. She uses her intelligence and people skills to save him from a group of criminals, and she uses her magic (perhaps a symbol for special talents) to heal him when he is hurt.
Disney's award winning film Frozen was released in 2013. Based on Hans Christian Anderson's story The Snow Queen, it tells of a young girl, Elsa. Elsa can make it snow and turn water to ice. When she starts an eternal winter, it is her sister, Anna, who decides to save the kingdom. When Anna's heart is frozen, an act of true love is needed to save her. We immediately think of true love's kiss. In the end, the act of true love which saves Anna is her decision to give up her life for Elsa.
The females in these stories are intelligent, brave and adventurous. They are better role models for young girls and show children that girls can be heroes too. Disney's choice to show strong, independent females working together with men shows the progress which has been made in gender equality. Hopefully, through efforts such as this, the idea that a man always rescues the woman will not be passed on to future generations.
Who are your favourite strong, independent female leads from film or fiction? Why?
My first pick is Hermione! She is so brave in all the movies she acted, not just Harry Potter. And from Disney I would pick Judy from Zootopia, because her determination to solve a case which wasn't solved in two weeks to solve it in just two days... it's just amazing. And of course, who can beat Mulan when it comes to bravery?
She actually has courage and is kind.
Repunzel, she is brave , intelligent, and confident, not relying on man at all.
My favourite female lead is Elizabeth Bennet from Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen.She is truly strong, independent and witty.I like Lalita even more in the Indian film adaption of the same book,called 'Bride & Prejudice'. It is a great film which has the same plot but with a cross country setting.A must watch for every one!
Beatrice "Tris" Prior from Divergent. she's an example for me of how to show people what you can do no matter from where you belong or what you look or seem like.
I like tris very much. Do u like Tobias?
Hermione and Ginny from Harry Potter are my pick. As they are selected as Gryffindors, they must be somehow brave, strong and adventurous.
Mulan is a great example! She is brave and stong-willled (determined), and she shows herself to be just as capable as any man. I like that through her the men in the film learn to look at women differently and see her as a leader. Although this is a film, it shows the difference one woman can make when she uses her full potential.
These are some gret examples! Hermione is one of my favourite too - I think that without her intelligence, Harry would have had a lot more problems. She's also a great role model as she shows the importance of learning instead of focusing on being popular.
Yes, I totally accept the fact. Hmm, I really wish Hermione existed for real.Just as you said, it was Hermione's brains that helped Harry figure out most of the stuff, (I mean everything) specially the deathly hallows.

Situated near the northern limits of the California Current oceanographic zone, and within the territorial boundaries of the Kwakiutl District Council, the Anne Vallée Ecological Reserve at Triangle Island supports the largest and most diverse seabird colony in British Columbia. Triangle is the outermost of the Scott Islands Group, lying some 45 km off the northwestern tip of Vancouver Island, and 10 km west of its nearest neighbour, Sartine Island. This island complex consists of a roughly triangular-shaped main island, plus a smaller island (Puffin Rock) joined to it only at low tide; there are also several small, associated offshore rocks. Triangle is part of the Scott Islands Provincial Park, and has been designated an Important Bird Area. In addition, it will soon lie within the Scott Islands Marine Wildlife Area, being designated under the Canada Wildlife Act primarily to protect critical habitat for the millions of seabirds that depend on these waters throughout the year.
Triangle Island has a cool, moist climate, characterized by moderate annual precipitation (mostly rain), frequent fog, and strong winds. The winds occasionally reach hurricane force. These environmental conditions inhibit trees from growing on the island, but soils rich in nutrients and heavily fertilized by birds create ideal conditions for growth of low-lying vegetation: salmonberry fluorishes, and other common species include Pacific crabapple, tufted-hairgrass, salal, and a variety of ferns.
As with its terrestrial habitat, the nearshore waters around Triangle Island teem with life, including many species of shellfish, crabs, urchins, sponges, and an abundance of fish. The terrestrial invertebrate fauna remains largely unstudied, apart from brief, pioneering surveys by researchers from the British Columbia Provincial Museum – now the Royal British Columbia Museum – in the 1950s.
Few terrestrial mammals inhabit Triangle, the only native species being Keen's mice and Townsend's voles. In addition, domestic rabbits were introduced by lighthouse keepers in the early 1900's, and are now well established. Triangle provides important mating and pupping sites for two species of marine mammals – harbour seals and Steller's sea lions – and a third, the California sea lion, may also mate and pup in small numbers. The Steller's sea lion rookery at Triangle Island is the largest in Canada, and in the aftermath of alarming population declines in parts of Alaska in recent decades, is now the second largest in the world. In addition, a few immature male elephant seals loaf on the island's beaches every summer, and sea otters and a variety of cetaceans, including grey and humpback whales, orcas, and Pacific white-sided dolphins, can occasionally be seen passing by within sight of the island.
Triangle Island is home to many species of breeding birds, including Northwestern Crows, Common Ravens, Fox and Song sparrows, Winter Wrens and Orange-crowned Warblers. Many other species of birds, including a variety of shorebirds, visit the island on their spring and fall migrations. Among shorebirds, Triangle supports only a breeding population of Black Oystercatchers. The island also supports several nesting pairs of Bald Eagles and Peregrine Falcons, top predators that must find life on the island easy.
But it is the seabirds, 12 breeding species in all, that numerically dominate the avifauna of Triangle Island. The island supports a very large population of Cassin's Auklets (possibly 50% of the world population!), British Columbia's largest colonies of Tufted Puffins and Common Murres, and a sizable population of Rhinoceros Auklets. Triangle's other breeding seabirds include Pelagic Cormorants, Leach's and Fork-tailed Storm-petrels, Glaucous-winged Gulls, Pigeon Guillemots, and several more. It is the presence of such large, internationally significant seabird populations that bring researchers from the Centre for Wildlife Ecology to Triangle Island every spring.
Among the species of particular interest to us are:
Cassin's Auklet: This is a small (175 g), nocturnal, burrow-nesting member of the family Alcidae. It lays a single white egg, which the parents take turns incubating for about 38 days. After it hatches, both parents usually return once each night to feed zooplankton to the chick (mainly copepods and euphausiids, plus some larval fish), which they carry in a special throat pouch that develops for this purpose prior to the breeding season. At about 45 days of age, the chick leaves the burrow to begin an independent life at sea (i.e., it "fledges"). Triangle Island supports about 500,000 breeding pairs of Cassin's Auklets.
Rhinoceros Auklet: This unusual member of the Alcidae is actually a puffin, not an auklet. It is medium sized (525 g), nocturnal, nests in burrows and feeds mainly on fish. It too lays a single white egg, which is incubated in turn by both parents for about 45 days. Like Cassin's Auklet chicks, Rhinoceros Auklet chicks are usually fed once each night by each parent – one billful of small fish, which might include Pacific sandlance, Pacific saury, and even some young Pacific salmon – until it fledges at about 55 days of age. Triangle supports about 40,000 breeding pairs of Rhinoceros Auklets.
Tufted Puffin: A large (780 g) species of Alcidae, this is perhaps the most ornate and beautiful member of the family. Unlike Cassin's and Rhinoceros auklets, Tufted Puffins have a diurnal pattern of activity on the colony, but like their smaller relatives, they too nest in earthen burrows in which the female lays a single white egg. Both parents incubate in turn for about 45 days, then each delivers a billfull of food to the chick once to several times per day. Interestingly, while the adults themselves feed mainly on large zooplankton, they feed small forage fish such as sandlance to the chick. The chick fledges after 40 days or more in the burrow. Triangle Island supports about 30,000 breeding pairs of Tufted Puffins.
Common Murre: Social and engaging, this largest species of Alcidae (1 kg) nests shoulder-to-shoulder on open cliff ledges, forming the densest breeding aggregations of any bird (in some situation, up to 75 pairs or more per square metre!). The female lays a single egg that varies in colour from off-white to brilliant green-blue, and is marked with scribbles and rings and blotches, signals that the adult birds use to help them recognize their own egg. The egg hatches after about 33 days of incubation. Because they nest in the open, rather than in crevices or burrows as most other alcids do, one adult murre must remain with the chick to brood and protect it at all times. The off-duty parent delivers single fish several times per day. Murres, and their close relative the Razorbill (an Atlantic species), are unusual in that the chick remains at the breeding site for only about three weeks, at which time it departs to sea, having attained less than one quarter its final adult weight. While mother remains at the colony, father accompanies the chick to sea and continues to feed it for up to 2 months, enabling the chick completes its development. Triangle Island supports about 4,000 breeding pairs of Common Murres.
Remote, steep-sided, and frequently battered by harsh weather and rough seas, Triangle Island was never inhabited year-round by First Nations' peoples. It was visited in summer, however, because the island and its surrounding waters support a rich diversity of life, and provided skilled people with excellent opportunities to hunt and gather food. A testament to the importance of Triangle Island to its seasonal inhabitants, there is a large midden on the island that contains the bones of many species of marine mammals and birds (including Short-tailed Albatrosses!), as well as seashells of all kinds. The Tlatlasikwala First Nation is considered to be the "Gatekeeper" of all the Scott Islands, including Triangle.
Much later, a lighthouse was erected on the island, with construction completed in 1910. However, life and lightkeeping at Triangle proved nearly impossible. In fact, the top of the island is so high, and so frequently lost in fog, that the light often was not even visible to boats from the sea! A badly failed project, the lighthouse remained active for only ten years before being dismantled.
Currently, Triangle Island is designated as an Ecological Reserve by British Columbia's provincial government, and human visitation is strictly regulated: permission from the provincial Ministry of Water, Land, and Air Protection is required before any person can set foot on the island. Crews from the Centre for Wildlife Ecology visit the island and conduct their research under permit from the provincial and federal governments, and provide annual reports on their activities at Triangle Island.
Following up on surveys by researchers from the British Columbia Museum in the 1950s, in the 1970s the Canadian Wildlife Service began integrated studies of Triangle Island's seabirds. This research was led initially by CWS Research Scientist Kees Vermeer, who conducted pioneering studies of seabird breeding biology on Triangle. Later, in the 1980s, CWS biologists Gary Kaiser, Michael Rodway and Moira Lemon led field crews that carried out the enormously difficult task of determining the size of Triangle's seabird populations (in fact, they estimated the size of seabird populations in the entire province!). These studies, along with those of University of British Columbia PhD student Anne Vallée and Simon Fraser University MSc student Doug Bertram in the 1980s, provide a critical baseline of information against which results of research later carried out by the Centre for Wildlife Ecology can be compared.
The existence of this baseline was one of the main reasons why, in 1994, the CWE's Fred Cooke and Ian Jones selected Triangle Island as the site at which to establish a long-term seabird research and monitoring program. Following Ian's departure in 1995 to a research chair position at Memorial University with the Atlantic Cooperative Wildlife Ecology Research Network (the Atlantic counterpart to the CWE), Doug Bertram returned to lead the Triangle Island program. When Doug left in 2001 to head up the Marbled Murrelet Recovery Team as a biologist with the Canadian Wildlife Service, Mark Hipfner became Scientific Director of the Triangle program.
4. Centre for Wildlife Ecology research at Triangle Island
Ultimately, the main objective of the core research program at Triangle Island is to provide the information necessary to enable the Canadian Wildlife Service to achieve its long-term conservation objectives for marine birds. These goals are outlined in The Management Plan for Seabird Conservation, Pacific and Yukon Region (2002), which details the conservation threats and issues judged to be top concerns for marine birds in the Pacific and Yukon Region: (1) lack of formal protection for breeding colonies and critical marine habitat; (2) climate change; (3) seabird bycatch; (4) oil pollution; (5) forest exploitation; and (6) introduced mammalian predators.
Our core research program at Triangle Island addresses a number of these issues, either directly or indirectly; some others are not relevant to Triangle, which has neither forests nor introduced predators (and we take careful steps to prevent introductions!). It is also already formally protected as an Ecological Reserve.
Three research projects – one completed in 2002, one ongoing since the 1970s, and one that we began only recently, in 2002 – illustrate some of the ways in which research conducted by the Centre for Wildlife Ecology assists the Canadian Wildlife Service in achieving its conservation objectives for marine birds:
(i) Lack of formal protection for critical marine habitat
In the late 1990s, the Canadian Wildlife Service put forward the Scott Islands Group Marine Area for designation under the Canada Wildlife Act, thus demonstrating its commitment to marine conservation. The Scott Islands Marine Wildlife Area is being created primarily to protect key habitat, such as foraging habitat, for the huge numbers of seabirds that use these waters throughout the year. However, a critical information gap became apparent early in the process: What are the foraging ranges of seabirds that breed on the Scott Islands? And more specifically, where do they forage?
To answer these questions, researchers from the Centre for Wildlife Ecology placed radio transmitters on Cassin's Auklets breeding at Triangle Island during the chick-rearing periods of 1999, 2000, and 2001. By flying transects in fixed-wing aircraft, they were able to locate the radioed birds at sea. The same techniques were used to locate foraging areas of Rhinoceros Auklets breeding on Triangle in 2002.
What did we find? In 1999 and 2000, radioed Cassin's Auklets were detected mainly 50-75 km southwest of Triangle, off the continental shelf break and over very deep water, in association with dense concentrations of Neocalanus copepods. In 2001, they foraged at similar distances but in that year to the north and west of Triangle, and again over deep water. In 2002, radioed Rhinoceros Auklets foraged mainly up to 80 km to the north of Triangle, on the shelf in waters just over 100 m deep, where they likely were obtaining forage fish such as Pacific saury.
The important thing to note is that, without information on foraging ranges and foraging locations, the original boundaries proposed for the Scott Islands MWA were too small to encompass these important areas. But provided with information on foraging ranges and locations by CWE researchers, CWS biologists were able to draw up biologically relevant boundaries for the MWA. The process leading to the designation of the Scott Islands Marine Wildlife Area is scheduled to conclude by spring 2004.
Ocean temperatures vary both in the short-term (within and among years), and the long term (over periods of many decades), dramatically affecting marine ecosystem processes. For example, in the California Current, ocean temperatures increased through most of the second half of the 20th century, peaking in the mid-to-late 1990s. This warming had a marked effect on ecosystem functions, such that production of zooplankton in this oceanographic zone declined by 80% over this period! As events occurring at low trophic levels generally cascade through to upper levels, it is not surprising that populations of some California Current seabirds, notably Cassin's Auklets, declined in the closing decades of the 20th century. These observations pose some interesting questions: What biological mechanisms link environmental variability (such as warm ocean temperatures) to seabird demographic processes? And what are the consequences for seabirds in BC?
From the outset, a major focus of the CWE's Triangle Island research program has been to assess the ecological and demographic responses of seabirds to ocean climate variability. This information, which builds on research conducted by CWS in the 1970s and 1980s, will be vital to understanding how seabird populations might respond to long-term, anthropogenic climate change. We also expect that the results will be widely applicable to other areas and to a variety of marine wildlife.
Our approach to this issue has been to monitor inter-annual variation in vital rates (adult survival and breeding success), variation in adult body condition, and variation in nestling diets and growth. In addition, we are investigating whether adult birds feed at different trophic levels in years in which ocean climate differs, using stable isotopes analysis, a relatively new research technique, and investigating the consequences of this variation. We are also conducting experimental studies on the roles of food availability and adult quality in driving seasonal trends in breeding performance (thought to be a key indicator of environmental conditions), and studies of the responses of important forage fish prey, particularly Pacific sandlance and Pacific saury, to ocean climate variability. Much of the CWE research has been done in association with biological oceanographers from Canada's Department of Fisheries and Oceans. We hope that these studies, and others, will provide us with a novel perspective on ecosystem processes and how they affect marine birds and other wildlife.
What have we found? During the period 1994-2003, breeding success (here measured as "fledgling production", the mean mass of fledged chick produced per egg laid) of both Cassin's and Rhinoceros auklets was lower in years with higher ocean temperatures. The birds were affected at all stages of breeding: in warm years, females were less likely to lay eggs, those that did were less likely to hatch their eggs, fewer of the chicks survived to fledge, and the few chicks that did fledge were light in mass (which does not bode well for subsequent survival). Ocean climate seems to influence the abundance and availability of important prey such as Neocalanus copepods for Cassin's Auklets, and Pacific sandlance for species such as Common Murres, Tufted Puffins, and Rhinoceros Auklets, that usually feed their chicks on fish. Not only that, but there was evidence that survival of adult Cassin's Auklets from one year to the next was very low during the second half of the 1990s, which was the warmest period.
Interestingly, we now have evidence that the Cassin's Auklet population at Triangle is recovering since the switch back to a colder ocean regime in 1999. With reproductive success having improved since then, in recent years we have been capturing more birds overall (note that the mean number caught per night banding session in 2003 approached levels from the mid-1990s), and especially more young birds (those with brown eyes), at our night banding stations. Do these trends reflect normal population fluctuations for the species, perhaps driven by large-scale oceanographic processes like the Pacific Decadal Oscillation, or were the declines in the late 1990s anomalous? To answer questions like that, we need information gathered across many, many years.
While this research mainly focuses on Cassin's and Rhinoceros auklets, we also monitor key demographic parameters for Pelagic Cormorants, Leach's Storm-petrels, Glaucous-winged Gulls, Black Oystercatchers, Tufted Puffins, and Common Murres. By monitoring the breeding activities of a variety of species, and species that feed at a variety of trophic levels, we hope to obtain a comprehensive understanding of the relationship between seabird biology and the marine environment. To that end, we are also involved in collaborative ventures with other researchers along the Pacific coast.
(iii) Seabird bycatch and oiling
Recent analyses indicate that the Common Murre is one of the species most often killed as a result of fisheries bycatch and chronic oiling in waters off the British Columbia coast. This has raised concerns about the population-level effects of this mortality, still basically unquantified, on murres in the P&Y Region. And we know that numbers in neighbouring Washington State have been declining for at least the last decade, with high rates of bycatch possibly contributing to the declines.
More than 95% of all murres that breed in BC have historically bred in the immediate vicinity of Triangle Island (the majority on Puffin Rock), so the population status of Common Murres at Triangle is essentially equivalent to their status in the entire Region. Therefore, an obvious question arises: What is the population status of Common Murres at Triangle Island, and elsewhere in BC? And if the population is declining, is anthropogenic mortality due to bycatch and/or oiling an important factor?
To answer this question, we began a demographic study of Common Murres at Triangle Island in 2002, and have been monitoring annual variation in vital rates (adult survival and breeding success), as well as chick diets and growth rates. In addition, in summer 2003 we resurveyed all murre breeding sites around Triangle Island, and made comparisons with results of a 1989 survey conducted by CWE graduate Dr. Michael Rodway.
What have we found? Results of the 2003 survey suggest that Common Murres have abandoned satellite colonies at Castle Rock and Murre Rock, and now are breeding at much higher densities on the main colony at Puffin Rock. However, numbers in 2003 were down about 25% overall from 1989. Interestingly, conditions for breeding, as judged by adult mass dynamics, reproductive success, and chick growth rates, appear to be very favourable for murres at Triangle. If that is the case, any population declines may well be being driven by factors operating outside the breeding season.
We will continue to monitor the situation at Triangle, and in collaboration with partners, hope to undertake a complete survey of all historical murre colonies in the P&Y Region in 2004 (including Triangle again). Once we have the information we require, we will be in a situation to make informed and appropriate recommendations, if required.
(b) Graduate students, past and present
Obtaining rigorous, relevant, reliable and resource-efficient scientific information to enable the Canadian Wildlife Service to achieve its conservation objectives for marine birds is a key objective of the Centre for Wildlife Ecology's research program at Triangle Island. A second, related, and equally important objective is to provide opportunities for high quality graduate student research, be it pure or applied.
Over the 10 years of the CWE's Triangle Island program, 4 graduate students have obtained MSc degrees from Simon Fraser University based on research conducted at Triangle. Two others are in the process of completing their degrees. The abstracts to theses that have been completed can be obtained by following the links; information on ongoing theses is also available. A broad range of research topics have been addressed, and this and the high quality of their theses testify to the high quality of students who have conducted graduate research at Triangle.

Over the years, the CWE research program at Triangle Island has been funded by the Baillie Foundation, the Canadian Wildlife Service, the Climate Change Action Fund, the Important Bird Areas Community Action Fund, the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration, the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada, the Nestucca Trust Fund, Simon Fraser University, the Science Horizons Program of Environment Canada, the Vancouver Foundation, and the World Wildlife Fund Canada.
We thank the many people, far too numerous to mention – volunteers, contractors, graduate students and others – whose dedication in the field has been primarily responsible for the success of the program over the years. We also thank everyone who has provided invaluable logistical support of our field camp at Triangle Island: the Canadian Coast Guard, especially the officers and crews of the vessels Sir Wilfred Laurier, Bartlett, and Narwhal, as well as helicopter pilots and crews; staff of British Columbia Parks, especially Martin Duick, Ian Maclellan, Rik Simmons and Linda Phillips; Bob Percheski of Cooper Air; and the staff at West Coast Helicopters. And lastly, we are deeply indebted to Judy Higham, Joanne Harrington, Barb Sherman, and Connie Smith for their indefatiguable support of our field camp and research activities from back home in Vancouver.

Note: The first portion of this piece is written by me. The second portion is written by our new co-writer, Mercedes May.
There's no such thing as a definite portrait of the autism spectrum, but the way it is represented on film ends up having another effect upon how we are seen as people. The most important aspect about listening to how media can speak to a single person on the spectrum for one portrait can already say a lot for how the outside world would respond. But sometimes there's much more that we'll end up seeing in one specific form of media that we know others may not be able to see under our own eyes. But as human beings, we all have a specific response to something that we feel so strongly about – whether it be in the positive or the negative. I think that even in my own love of cinema as a whole should be indicative of how I respond to the way I see the world turning itself around me, because for myself – it has been my gateway.
Take a look at a film like Being There, for example. This is a film about a simple gardener who learned everything about the world that he possibly could through watching the television. But when he went outside to see the world as it is, his simple utterances all about gardening end up being interpreted as philosophical statements about the state of the world around oneself. Sometimes, I think to myself about how Peter Sellers's character, Chance the Gardener, feels like – being overwhelmed by the circumstances around himself, only resorting to what it is that makes him most comfortable; that being the garden. Chance doesn't let the outside's perception of him ever deter him from being the sort of person that he is, perhaps it could be a means of suppressing bad thoughts? I can't bring myself to ever think that someone who knows so much about one specific field of interest would really be dumb, but I feel that's what makes this movie as great as it is.
But how I have this sort of a response to one film that covers an experience that I find to be so resonant with me will also have another effect on how I view another film. Of course, film is perhaps the one thing that I feel most passionate about in my lifetime for I've always wanted to be a filmmaker since my early teens and my own discovery of more films only continues to push me forward through my life – but the way I take it is that it helps me recognize stigma all the more and sometimes I think that happens to be frightening. I wrote once in a blog entry that I don't ever want to be thought of as being under the same light as I Am Sam or Forrest Gump, because these two are also films that explicitly show their characters as being part of a similar spectrum regarding their own mental health and because of such, they reinforce societal stereotypes about such people – something that I don't think in the slightest to be okay. And when these images are reinforced, there's always that fear on the inside that people won't be listening to what I want to say because they paint that image of autistic individuals as being dumb.
Yet I kept moving. I kept moving because I knew that if I remained vocal enough, I would be able to get people to listen in on what I have to say about my own experience. We, as human beings, always have a certain response to the films that we watch that is driven by our own emotions and they end up becoming the key to forming a greater understanding of what it is that we are like as individuals. This response isn't something only limited to films, but other forms of media – and it's an important factor as to what makes us human beings the way that we are. I've always believed that different forms of media and our response to them would have a lot to say about what we are as people, just as the way we listen to other perspectives about such do. We choose to understand something one way because of one specific lens we have regarding how we look at the world, but sometimes I wonder who will be there to listen to the way I see things happening around me. Some have said I was hysterical, others have just outright dismissed my point of view – but I remained vocal because I knew there were other people who wanted to listen.
I think to myself that maybe there's still a glimmer of hope for people like myself. The only way you can really share your own experiences is to speak of them from your own point of view, because no one else will be doing that for yourself. Like Roger Ebert said of the movies, they are a machine that generates empathy from the public, and it's a sentiment that I wholeheartedly agree with – for the stories being told can open our eyes to look at a world from another lens and that's what I find to be the most beautiful thing about films. It doesn't matter what sort of film it may be, but only one person can speak about how they affected you the way they did, and that's yourself. And from my experience, I find that it's still important that we talk about and listen to how portrayals of mental health play a big role in our lives – whether it be the explicit or the implicit. What I know people like us would want is for others to listen, and see the world that we do, maybe even temporarily.
The experiences of autistic people are all utterly different, no one autistic person is the same as another. Yet, there will always be one concrete thing that connects us all: passion. Our interests allow us a haven from our usual worries, responsibilities, and reality, and while that is a universal occurrence, the way interests inhabit an autistic person is a distinct experience – and one I am very grateful to have.
I cannot recall a single moment in my life that I wasn't completely invested in one of my many, everchanging passions. When I was younger that passion manifested itself in a common interest for girls of the same age: Bratz. Every day, without question, I would come home from school and watch it. If I wasn't watching the show, I was watching one of the films, or playing one of the PlayStation 2 games, or dressing up the dolls. I had Bratz everything; from lunch boxes, to towels, to hair bands, if it had Bratz on it, I wanted it.
It also introduced me to the first character I remember relating to, Yasmin. She had brown eyes, and brown hair, she cared about animals and the environment, and as far as five-year-old me was concerned, we were one and the same.
That is something I have always been drawn to, whether it be in books, television shows, films, paintings. Somebody I can see myself in. It can be difficult, as an autistic person, to consume so much media and see such little representation. For the few canon autistic characters that exist, I relate to an absolute zero. They become caricatures rather than actual human beings, devoid of any personality or meaning besides stereotype. But I could name an endless amount of characters I see as autistic coded, who are allowed to exist out of stereotypes, whose media I can enjoy more than I usually would.
When my interest inevitably wanes and I find a new one, I have an uncontrollable craving to indulge in every piece of media surrounding that interest. To absorb every piece of information that is possible, as fast as I can. It becomes all I want to talk about, to think about, to do, and anything that is not in any way related to my interest becomes an unnecessary chore. While this passion fuels me, it also creates a new feeling of insecurity, and fear. To voice my love for this newfound preoccupation would be to subject myself to becoming something I dread. I could talk about my interest once in a week and still it would feel too much. As if I could palpably feel people becoming agitated with my new obsession, that it is weird someone should be so invested. That my love of something is somewhat of a burden to witness. And thus, I never truly express everything I feel towards the art I love. Some small percentage is locked away and ignored, for though I cannot imagine not connecting to art specifically as an autistic person, for some reason I feel it should be my goal.
That part of me fades just a little bit more every time my passions change, however, and I still resist succumbing to it. My connection to the art I enjoy is the biggest part of me and of my life. Without it, I think I would be a mere shell of a person.
My passions have shaped me into the person I am, and I'm sure they will continue to do so. They have gifted me so much happiness and knowledge over the years and I can only hope that continues. My interests have changed. My interests will continue to change. But the unique experience I have with my interests will not.

6 things you should know about personal loans.
Personal loans are very important and are good options when you need mostly cash for a specific purpose. Before you get this personal loans, there are very many factors that you have to consider when you are determining the type of loan which is very right for you. One can get a business loan and use it to start or improve a business. Also you can get personal loans and you can use them to do very many things that you need. As mentioned earlier, there 6 things that you should know them and they are concerned about personal loans. These things are described below.
1.How these personal loans work?
These loans are the instalment loans. Instalment loans are the ones that a person should borrow a fixed amount of money and pay the money back while that amount of money accrues some interest in monthly instalments of the life of that particular loan. The life of this loan is approximately 12 months to 84 months. Another important thing that you should know is that once you have paid this loan in full, this account gets closed and if you may need for more money you can apply again.
2.The types of personal loans that are available.
One should know the types of the loans that are available. We have two types of loans; secured and unsecured loans. Secured loans are the loans whereby a person must give a property as a collateral. In case you don't pay the money, that property will be owned by the loan lenders. While unsecured loans are the loans that one does not give a property for collateral. By knowing this, a person will have a choice to decide on the type of loan to take.
3.Personal loans vs. other lending options.
Personal loans can provide cash that one needs for variety of situations. If someone has a good credit transfer, you may qualify for a balance transfer card that has a zero percent introductory. Read more.
4.Impact of personal loans on credit scores.
One should make sure that the personal loan is again repaid in order to avoid bad credits. If one requests for a loan and you are given, try to ensure that you maintain the badcredit.
5.The interest rates and other fees.
Before you borrow the loan, make sure that you know interest rates and the fees that may be given to you if you don't follow the rules and the regulations pertained. Your interest rates vary with the amount of money that one borrows. The higher the money borrowed the higher the interest rate. There are some fees that may incur even when processing the loan, so you must also be very keen to know them.
6.Where to get the personal loans.
As usual, banks are the first places that will come into your mind when you think to get a loan. But this is not only the case, there are very many places where you can get personal money from, they include; online lenders, customer finance companies, credit unions and others.
When it comes to owning a business and being in charge of the finances, you must stay alert, and dedicate yourself to learning and doing more for your business. Staying on top of everything when it comes to owning a business is the key to success. Studies have shown that in the United States, the majority of businesses fail within the first two years. The climate in the United States, especially when it comes to business is one that favors businesses that know how to change and grow based on the world around them. And with the fast paced world of business in the United States, you'll find that many fail to keep up with the demands If you want your business to succeed.
The first thing you should do when it comes to a business and growing your business is to do research. Not every piece of information that you come across will help you grow your business, but some will, and keeping those in mind while you work is the way to success. You also want to use your critical thinking skills and think about what ways that you can use advice for other uses. This is critical when it comes to running a business, and it's something that you want to make sure that you have a handle on before you make any huge business decisions. When it comes to running a business, certain decisions can make or break you, so be sure to do your research first, and if you have to, consider hiring business consultants. By concentrating on the way your business works instead of smaller things when it comes to your business, you'll be much more likely to see a difference when it comes to revenue and saving money. Tons of businesses make the wrong decisions when it comes to saving money, and it's all about having that sweet spot between saving money and keeping revenue streams coming, so concentrating on the whole of your decisions will do a lot to give your business a kick in the right direction.
The next thing you'll want to concentrate on when it comes to your business is saving in smaller areas. Every business should have a budget, and a bookkeeper or accountant so that you know exactly when and where to spend money. A ton of your business decisions will be entirely up to you, so knowing when and where to save money is a great asset to your company. There are things, however, that can be saved on. Travelling is a huge business expense that many companies take for granted. Instead of spending a ton of money, find ways to save more when you travel. This is especially important in the early days of your business. If you want to go to a conference, let's say, then you should also concentrate on ways that you can save on these meetings. When it comes to travelling, instead of staying in the heart of New York City, instead stay in New Jersey at Bally's Atlantic City, and save a ton on your hotel room. You can also opt for taking just one bag on your travels when you'll be going by plane so that you don't have to check a bag, and pay an extra fee.
Truly, there were lots of finance products that are available in all market in order to help the business owners. If you look out finance on your business, just relax and do not put yourself in a hurry. Just consider the possible alternatives in more detail as well as choose the one that is right for you and your business.
Business loan will provide financial aid on business of different sizes. It is an ideal for any business owners at this time who need more funding in order to enhance and or expand with their business. When you need a loan on your business, then you must have to adopt a strategic approach. Cautious planning were necessary in ensuring success to obtain business loans.
This is a term loan with a scheduled principal and interest repayment program. The loan will provides an access to any funds upfront that can be utilized for funding on a long-term business investment which will expand on the capacity on your business, like, purchasing a new business or even buying equipment. A fully drawn on advance loans are mostly secured through a registered mortgage over a residential or commercial property or a business asset.
A short-term loan can provide short-term funding needs for your business. You can take out a short-term loan if you want to take an advantage on a fast, financial opportunity and/or helping you in getting out for a financial money flow crisis. The loan can offers an exact sum advance as well as it requires certain periodical interest fee that you have to pay for. Short-term loans typically require to provide for a security.
If you decide to expand your business operations and will take benefits from potential and possible tax advantages, which you should try to consider in taking out your business equipment financing, as these finance arrangement will allow you to purchase, lease or hire a new vehicle or specialized equipment. Information about tax advantages can be obtained by clicking here.
The aim of establishing to an overdraft form of facility is then to provide a working capital to your business for a short-term, prior on receiving an income. Overdraft facilities must not be utilized for capital purchase or long-term financing needs. The overdraft is a normal trading account facility for your business, whereby those lender and or credit provider may permit you on using or withdrawing more than what you have on any trading account.
Line of the credit can provide an access to any funds through allowing you in drawing out your account balance until an approved limit is up. The business loans are designed as a long-term debt facility and are usually secured by a registered mortgage over a property.
