Life is tough if you find you got it all and you're not satisfied
People try to lead you astray
But I ain't gonna fall for the games that they play
I know of the danger
I'm foolin' with strangers.
You are my one temptation
You are the one I've no resistance to.
You give me the thrill that I'm addicted to.
You're my one temptation.
You can look
You can touch
Nothing is free if you pay too much
When there's talk on the street
And the pressure is hot to want more than you got.
I don't hear what they're saying
Day out and day in.
Nobody knows you are my one temptation
You give me a thrill that I'm addicted to.
Nothing ever happens till you show your face around
Can't let you see that you turn my world around.
My love lines grow and get too strong to say no.

Hard outer casing surrounding a somewhat fleshy substance which seems to be sufficient in satiating appetite. When extracted correctly the remaining shell creates a useful vessel.
I have identified this to be a bumpy gourd. It's interesting that David mentions it's sufficient to satiate an appetite, could it be Elizabeth that he was testing the food for?
Gourds are possibly the first domesticated plant species with fossilised specimens found at archaeological sites dating from as early as 13,000 BC. They have had numerous uses throughout history, including as tools, musical instruments, objects of art, film, and food.
As well as a food source this could also be a link to creation and flood mythology.
Fuxi and Nüwa, according to the Classic of Mountains and Seas were the original humans who lived on the mythological Kunlun Mountain (Huashan).
One myth says they set up two separated piles of fire, and the fire eventually became one. Under the fire, they decided to become husband and wife. Fuxi and Nüwa used clay to create offsprings, and with the divine power they made the clay figures come to life. These clay figures were the earliest human beings.
This myth has several variations, but the outline describes a great flood which destroyed all the humans all over the world except a pair of brother and sister, or aunt and nephew. Both were forced to be married in order to repopulate the world.
One version stated that their children were ordinary humans, while the others said it was a lump of meat, gourd, melon, or grindstone; after they opened, cut, or destroyed it, humans emerged.

Henley Passport Index 2023: India's Climbs by 2 Spot
By venkat.narayanan January 12, 2023 Updated: January 12, 2023 Politics News No Comments4 Mins Read
The Henley Passport Index ranks based on the number of countries and territories their holders can visit visa-free. The index is based on data from the International Air Transport Association (IATA), which maintains the world's largest and most comprehensive database of travel information. The highest-ranking passport on the index typically grants its holders access to the most destinations without a visa, while the lowest-ranking passport grants access to the fewest destinations. The ranking is updated in real-time throughout the year, as visa-waiver agreements are signed, or countries introduce or lift visa requirements.
Originally created by Dr. Christian H. Kaelin who is the chairman of Henley and partners, (an immigration consultancy in London) the rankings and positions are based on data from the International Air Transport Association (IATA). IATA is accountable for holding the largest and most accurate database of travelers. It was launched in 2006 and includes ranking of 199 passports and 227 travel destinations.

The Henley Index is widely cited as one of the most reputable and reliable passport rankings available. The ranking list is determined by the number of countries a passport holder can enter visa-free, or with visa on arrival. The citizens of country who can access the most number of countries, given that criteria would be number one in the index.
India's position on the index:
A traveler can now travel to 59 destinations across the globe with an Indian passport Image source: Bayut.com
Indian has improved its position by 2 spots this year. The Indian passport is now ranked 85th on the Henley index for the year 2023. Mauritian and Uzbekistan passports is as powerful as India's. An Indian passport holder can travel visa-free or get visa on arrival for 59 destinations. India was 84th, 85th and 87th respectively in 2020,2021,2022.
India's Spot in Henley's Index ( Image source: Henley Global)
Traveling to visa-free countries let's Indian passport holders visit a country without going through the hassle of applying for a visa. Travelers wouldn't need to make plans weeks in advance and are free to go where they want. This lets the travelers go to new, unusual destinations if it didn't require a visa.
Countries where Indians can visit without a visa or get visa on arrival include Barbados, Bhutan, Fiji, Haiti, Indonesia, Jamaica, Macao, Nepal, Qatar, Serbia, Thailand, Tunisia, Zimbabwe etc. Image source: Bayut.com
According to Henley's index, India's rank is somewhat mediocre. Despite being the fifth largest economy, it's passport holders can only access 59 destinations worldwide. This accounts to only 6.7% of global GDP.
Global Rankings and the most travel friendly:

Japan retains its top spot as the most favorable for travelers in 2023. It allows visa-free entry to 193 destinations across the globe. This is the fifth consecutive year that the country tops the charts. Singapore and South Korea jointly hold the second place. Passport holders can travel up to 192 destinations. Germany and Spain account for the third position. Both German or Spain passport holders can travel up to 190 destinations visa-free or with visa on arrival. European countries like Italy, Finland, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Austria, Denmark, Sweden etc. follow Germany and Spain.
United Kingdom holds the 6th position along with France, Ireland and Portugal. A person with an UK passport can travel up to 187 destinations. United States is 7th on the index with its holding visa- free access to 186 destinations. New Zealand also is 7th on the list. Australia is 8th on the list with 185 destinations.
Trio of Asian countries i.e., Japan, Singapore and South Korea offers their passport holders and travelers greater travel freedom than any other countries to various destinations across the globe. This is most- likely due to opening up of Asian- Pacific region post Covid.
Indian ranks 85th on the list. While it's neighbor Pakistan ranks 106th on the list with only 32 destinations and Afghanistan ranks 109th with a mere 27 destinations.
However, these numbers are subject to change as countries often update their visa policies, so it's always a good idea to check the most recent version of the index for the most accurate information.

Be Prepared for Presidential Primary Election Day Tuesday, March 10
March 9, 2020 - The Presidential Primary Election is Tuesday, March 10, and city polling places will be open 7 a.m.–8 p.m. on Election Day. Registered voters in line by 8 p.m. will be eligible to vote. To locate your ward and/or polling place, go online to the Michigan Voter Information web page at www.michigan.gov/vote.
More information can be found on the elections website, www.a2gov.org/elections, and questions about elections in Ann Arbor may be directed to the Ann Arbor City Clerk's office at 734.794.6140, cityclerk@a2gov.org or in person on the second floor of Larcom City Hall, 301 E. Huron St. On-street or lot parking is located on Ann Street, east of Fifth Avenue.
The city clerk's office is asking for the public's patience as in-person Election Day voter registration and no-reason absentee voting are being implemented. As a result, over-the-counter services, such as licensing and permits, will not take place on Monday and Tuesday, March 9 and 10, due to the anticipated high volume of voter registration and absentee ballot requests. The city clerk's office instead instructs the public to use the drop box at the front counter and adds that any paperwork dropped off during these two days will be processed beginning again on Wednesday, March 11.
A special note for voters who have already cast their absentee ballots: Voters have the right to "spoil" their absentee ballot for any reason and request a new one until 4 p.m. on Monday, March 9. In order to receive a new ballot, voters must sign a written request.
Voter registration
Check your voter registration status, absentee ballot status and view sample ballots at the online Michigan voter information center: www.michigan.gov/vote.
Those who wish register to vote in the Presidential Primary can still do so in person at the Ann Arbor City Clerk's office with proof of residency.
Voter registration may occur up until 8 p.m. on Election Day, Tuesday, March 10.
Presidential primary ballot types
Any Michigan registered voter can participate in the primary. However, by law, voters must make their Presidential Primary ballot selection in writing by completing the application to vote on Election Day, or on the absent voter ballot application if voting absentee. There are three ballot options available:
A Democratic Presidential Primary ballot.
A Republican Presidential Primary ballot.
A ballot without Presidential Primary.
Absentee voting
Why wait until Election Day to vote? And why wait in line at your polling place to vote on Election Day? Absentee ballots are now available to all voters, with no reason required! Here's how to vote absentee:
Voters must first turn in an application for an absentee ballot; applications are still being accepted in person at the city clerk's office until 4 p.m. Monday, March 9.
You can visit the city clerk's office to fill out an application, or you can go to the application online (www.michigan.gov/documents/sos/AVApp_535884_7.pdf) to print and fill it out and bring it to the city clerk's office.
Once completed, all absentee ballots must be returned to the city clerk's office or the locked ballot boxes in the Larcom City Hall lobby by 8 p.m. on Election Day.
More information can be found on the city's "voting" web page at www.a2gov.org/departments/city-clerk/Elections/Pages/Voting.aspx.
Election Day line tracker
Voters who choose not to vote absentee can check the number of people waiting in line at their city polling places and view estimated wait times before they head to the polls. Line counts and projected wait times will be reported in real time by the election inspectors at each polling place. Find the Election Day line tracker at www.a2gov.org/departments/city-clerk/Elections/Pages/Line-Tracker.aspx. The line tracker also includes images of each polling place as well as links to maps and directions.
I voted!
Just like voters at polling places can show their participation with an "I voted" sticker, absentee voters will also have a way to proudly display their civic pride. "I voted, #A2Votes" digital badges can be found on the city website on Election Day to upload to their social media account(s). Digital badges are available not only in English, but also several of the other languages spoken in the Ann Arbor community. Go to www.a2gov.org/elections and select on the "A2 votes" tab. Be sure to use #A2Votes when posting!
Voters looking for the perfect backdrop to help showcase their participation need look no further than their polling place. Whether returning an absentee ballot at Larcom City Hall on Election Day, or voting at a precinct, voters can pause for an "I voted" selfie. Special "I voted, #A2Votes" posters will be featured at polling places; and there will even be an "I voted, #A2Votes" banner in the first floor lobby of Larcom City Hall.
Voter tips and ward and precinct polling-location information:
Don't forget to bring your photo ID to vote. Voters who do not have acceptable photo ID will be required to sign an affidavit in order to vote.
All Ann Arbor polling places are accessible to persons with disabilities.
New permanent polling place locations:
Ward 1, Precincts 1 and 12 (1-1 and 1-12) — Relocated back to Michigan Union.
Ward 1, Precinct 4 (1-4) — Relocated to Larcom City Hall, 301 E. Huron St. This is the new permanent location for voters previously assigned to vote at Precinct 1-4 at Second Baptist Church.

Climate-related security risks make international headlines
Article by Breakthrough: National Centre for Climate Restoration
In May 2019, Breakthrough released a new policy paper - Existential climate-related security risk: A scenario approach.
This latest publication was co-written by Breakthrough Research Director, David Spratt, and the former Chair of the Australian Coal Association, Ian Dunlop, and features a powerful endorsement from Admiral Chris Barrie, AC RAN Retired, former Chief of the Australian Defence Force.
With the threat of climate consequences now reaching existential levels, a new approach to climate risk assessment is required. Through a 2050 scenario analysis, this paper examines the projected climate-related security threats if urgent action is not implemented within the next decade.
The paper provides an eye-opening reality check that captured significant international media attention over the last week. Its analysis of the fate of civilisation, if we continue along a path of inaction, made worldwide headlines in articles from Aljazeera, USA Today, New Scientist, Asia Times, The Guardian, Vice, and many more.
Access the full policy paper here or download other recent publications below. You can also hear more from Admiral Chris Barrie, along with other former Australian defence officials, security experts, and prominent political and business leaders, in Part One of Breakthrough's new documentary series, HOME FRONT.

Take a walk around Singapore's only conservation housing estate with our volunteer guides to explore its pre-war and post-war architecture and learn about the intriguing people and stories associated with this charming and picturesque neighbourhood. This tour includes an exclusive visit to Singapore's first communal civilian air raid shelter in a residential estate which saved many lives during World War II.
Site 1: The Origin and Development of Tiong Bahru
The Tiong Bahru Market is home to popular hawker stalls.
The quaint neighbourhood of Tiong Bahru – known for its elegant 1930s-1950s art deco residential blocks and its network of trendy cafes and popular hawker stalls – comfortably straddles both the past and present.
The estate started out as a lowland swamp. In 1859, the Tiong Lama cemetery (located in and around the present-day Singapore General Hospital compound) was moved to Tiong Bahru. This development is captured in the estate's name – tiong means die in Hokkien while baru means new in Malay. The cemetery housed the remains of members of the Cantonese and Hakka communities in Singapore. The area was also home to villagers of Kampong Tiong Bahru.
Over time, the lack of infrastructure resulted in sanitation problems. In the 1920s, the Singapore Improvement Trust (SIT) stepped in. It worked to redevelop the land and build new homes. It was the first public housing estate ever spearheaded by the SIT. Tiong Bahru's burial grounds were exhumed and slums were cleared before building works began in the late 1930s. The first wave of homes comprised 28 council flats and four shops. These were completed in 1936. In the following years, the SIT built even more flats. By 1941, records indicate that the area was home to 784 flats, 54 tenements, 33 shops. It also housed 6,000 occupants. Due to steep rental rates, the estate grew to be occupied by wealthier individuals and families as well as the mistresses of rich men.
During the war, the estate suffered some damage. The chaos wreaked by the Japanese across the island affected livelihoods and changed the fate of many. By the end of the war, a more diverse group of residents – such as middle-income families – had moved into Tiong Bahru.
In 1954, the SIT added another 1,258 flats to Tiong Bahru. These four storey post-war flats were popular among locals due to planners' considerate incorporation of communal green and open spaces. A community centre and polyclinic also rose in the estate to serve the growing residential population in Tiong Bahru.
Today, the value of Tiong Bahru's flats has soared due in part to their aesthetic merits as well as their historical roots.
Site 2: Bird Corner and Former Hu Lu Temple

Bird Corner
At the intersection of Seng Poh Road and Tiong Bahru Road today lies a bird corner that was set up in the early 1980s. The bird corner was set up by the owner of a traditional coffee shop, Wah Heng, that was located at on the ground floor of the current Link Hotel.
The bird corner drew in throngs of bird owners who showed off their birds, listened to their calls and songs, and socialised with one another. However, the bird corner at Wah Heng was not the original bird corner at the intersection. Across the road, on a plot of land now occupied by Nostalgia Hotel, stood a popular pet bird shop that drew many tourists and curious onlookers to it. The popularity of the shop and its hanging bird cages inspired Wah Heng's owner to erect his own bird corner.
A number of bird singing competitions were held at the corner, including one sponsored by Dutch airline KLM. Popular American jazz flutist Herbie Mann also visited the corner in 1984 and performed to the accompaniment of bird songs.
Former Hu Lu Temple
葫芦庙 (Hu Lu Miao, "Gourd Temple" in Chinese) stood next to the pet bird shop. The temple was informally named after a bright red gourd-shaped temple located just outside the temple. The temple's genuine name was 威镇庙 (Wei Zhen Miao, "Temple of Awe" in Chinese).
According to two stone tablets in the temple, the temple was founded in 1909 by migrants from Nan'an, a county China's Fujian province. The temple was built on land donated by Lim Chwee Chian (1864 to 1923), a merchant and chairman of the Ee Hoe Hean Club for wealthy businessmen.
The temple was frequented by residents in the area, and was demolished in 2006 after it was sold by its owners. Nostalgia Hotel stands in its place today.
Site 3: Graves of Tan Tock Seng, Chua Seah Neo and Wuing Neo
Tan Tock Seng's grave located in Outram Road.
Tan Tock Seng was a prominent businessman and philanthropist, and is considered among Singapore's most important pioneers. He was born in Malacca in 1798, and moved to Singapore in 1819, not long after the British arrived.
Tan was a Hokkien, and knew how to speak English. He had good relations with European businessmen, and had a partnership with John Horrocks Whitehead, a trader from Shaw, Whitehead & Co. Tan's immense wealth was credited largely to joint land speculation between Whitehead and himself.
More than 20 hectares of land at the site of the former Tanjong Pagar Railway Station belonged to Tan, who also owned a plot of land that stretched from Connaught Drive to High Street and Tank Road. Together with his brother, Tan Oo Loong, he also owned a nutmeg plantation.
Among the buildings and institutions that Tan donated to was a hospital that was named after him. He contributed to the construction of a Chinese Pauper's Hospital on top of Pearl's Hill in 1844, after seeing the plight of the locals. The hospital was completed three years later but stood empty for another two years, owing to a lack of funds to employ staff and equip the hospital. It admitted its first patients in 1849, and moved to the junction of Serangoon Road and Balestier Road in 1861. Tan Tock Seng Hospital shifted again in 1903 to its current location off Moulmein Road.
Tan passed away in 1850 and was buried in an unknown location. In 1882, his son Tan Kim Ching (1829 to 1892) buried his wife Chua Seah Neo at this Outram Road site. It is believed that Tan Kim Ching exhumed his father's remains and reinterred them at the same location. Wuing Neo, Tan Kim Ching's daughter-in-law, was also buried at the site in 1882.
Site 4: Outram Precinct
The area around Outram Road was formally a military area. The 35th Regiment of the Madras Native Infantry built their barracks at the junction of Jalan Bukit Merah and Outram Road in 1827. Many of the soldiers in the regiment were Sepoys – Indian soldiers hired by the East India Company. The area became known as Sepoy Lines.
In the 1860s, the Sepoys moved to Tanglin Barracks in the Dempsey area. Singapore General Hospital relocated to Sepoy Lines in 1873, occupying some of the buildings that formerly house the Sepoys.
ーSite 3A: Institute of Health
Located in the Outram Precinct, The Institute of Health (IOH) was a joint venture between the government, the University of Malaya and the City Council of Singapore. The building in Outram Road was opened on 23 April 1958, and housed the School Medical and Dental Services headquarters, the University of Malaya's Department of Social Medicine and Public Health, and the City Council's Maternity and Child Welfare Centre.
ーSite 3B: Former Outram Prison and Outram Park Complex
A civilian prison was built at the bottom of Pearl's Hill in 1847. Located in the Outram Precinct, the prison was aptly named Pearl's Hill Prison, and confined debtors who failed to pay their fines. In 1882, HM (His/Her Majesty's) Criminal Jail was built next to the civilian prison for those convicted of more serious crimes. The two prisons were brought under one institution, and named Outram Prison. It served as Singapore's main prison until Changi Prison was opened in 1936.
Outram Prison remained operational until 1968 when it was demolished for Outram Park Complex to be erected.
Outram Park Complex was a modern mixed-use complex and featured apartment built above podium blocks that housed shops and offices. The complex had escalators, lifts and multi-storey car parks. It had a good reputation among shoppers, and housed Hong Kong's Chancellor Department Store's first overseas branch. The complex was demolished in 2003.
ーSite 3C: Coroner's Court
Located in the Outram Precinct, the Coroner's Court building was completed in 1956 and functioned as Singapore's Coroner's Court until 1975 when the court was moved to the main Subordinate Courts complex in Havelock Road in 1975. Previously, the Coroner's Court occupied different locations over the years.
Singapore's first Coroner was Andrew Farquhar (1802 to 1829). He was appointed on 17 December 1827. The Coroner first operated in the Medical Department of the General Hospital, until 1848. A small room was then made available to the Coroner at the Police Court on South Bridge Road. On 1 May 1928, a purpose-built Coroner's Court was completed at the Police Court building.
Site 5: Monkey God Temple

One of over ten monkey god idols in the temple.
齐天宫 ("Tiong Bahru Qi Tian Gong" in Chinese) moved to its current location at 44 Eng Hoon Street in 1938. The temple, popularly known as the Tiong Bahru Monkey God Temple, was founded in 1920 in a small attap hut.
The temple is dedicated to 孙悟空 ("Sun Wukong" in Chinese), the monkey king in Wu Chen-en's Journey to the West novel. It contains more than ten statues of the monkey god, with one more almost a century old. Qi Tian Gong's temples claim that the temple was the very first in Singapore dedicated to the monkey god. Today, there are over 40 temples in Singapore that worship the monkey god.
On the 16th day of the eighth lunar month, Sun Wukong's birthday, special rituals take place at the temple. Temple mediums go into a trance and bless new idols, altars and offices. Mediums are whipped, pierced, and climb ladders to prove that they have been possessed by the monkey god.
Site 6: Architecture of Tiong Bahru

The Singapore Improvement Trust (SIT) was tasked with developing the Tiong Bahru area after it failed to sell the land by tender over a five-year period in the 1930s because of a recession. Architect Alfred G. Church was in charge of designing the Tiong Bahru area between 1936 and 1941.
Many of his designs were a modified form of the Streamline Moderne style, which was a late offshoot of the Art Deco movement. The style was largely influenced by technology and modern travel, and incorporated design features that were characteristic of automobiles, trains and aeroplanes. Streamlined and aerodynamic lines were often seen on the buildings.
The buildings in Tiong Bahru have clean, curved shapes and rounded corners with horizontal and vertical lines. Nautical elements like porthole windows and stainless steel railings are also found on the buildings. The Streamline Moderne style is rarely found in housing projects, and the architectural value of those in Tiong Bahru prompted the Urban Redevelopment Authority to gazette 20 blocks in the area for conservation in 2003.
Site 7: Tiong Bahru Community Center
The centre has undergone multiple facelifts but residents remain at the heart of its outreach efforts.
Singapore's first community centre can trace its roots back to the late 1940s and early 1950s.
The idea for a community centre stemmed from former Tiong Bahru residents eager to rebuild after World War II. The idea was to build a communal hall and provide recreational amenities such as a basketball court, football field and badminton courts for residents.
Originally costing $20,000 to construct, the centre proved to be a worthy investment. Apart from recreational activities, it grew to serve the community in other ways and was able to offer assistance for matters such as funerals.
Over the years, residents grew fond of it. They popped in to watch films together, participate in night classes and take part in community events such as dances on the weekend.
To keep it relevant to the dynamic Tiong Bahru community, the community centre has undergone five major facelifts since it was first constructed.

Although Tiong Bahru had green spaces between its blocks, no garden was officially planned until 1972. The space that Seng Poh Garden occupies today was an open grassy area that residents used for their morning exercise and gatherings.
Sarawak-born sculptor Lim Nang Seng (1916 to 1987) was tasked to design a sculpture for the garden. Over a two-week period, he sculpted a 1.2 metre tall sculpture in an Orchard Road car park. Lim chose an abstract design for the sculpture, depicting a girl performing a joyful harvest dance.
The concrete sculpture was unveiled by then Minister for Interior and Defence Lim Kim San (1916 to 2006), and drew mixed reactions from residents. While some loved it, others thought it was too abstract, and looked like a swan about to take flight.

Block 78 is the largest block of flats in Tiong Bahru, and is bounded by four streets. Apart from its unique shape, the block features Singapore's first purpose-built public air raid shelter in a public housing project.
The block was built between 1939 and 1940, just after Singapore's earliest air raid shelters had been built between 1936 and 1937. On 28 June 1939, the Singapore Improvement Trust announced that an air raid shelter would be incorporated into the block's design.
The ground floor of Block 78 is a mix of residences and shops, and houses Hua Bee, one of Tiong Bahru's oldest coffee shops. The coffee shop was established in the 1940s, and served bread, eggs, fishball noodles and drinks. It is also known for its bulletproof coffee, or black coffee served with a slice of butter.
Site 10: Design of Tiong Bahru Flats
Tiong Bahru's architecture continues to draw people to the neighbourhood.
Apart from Art Deco and Streamline Moderne, Tiong Bahru also hosts the sleek internationalism architectural style which developed in the 1920s and 1930s. This style is known for its practical and stripped back design.
The men behind the estate's international style residential blocks located at Lim Liak Road and along Seng Poh Road were Singapore Improvement Trust (SIT) architects and planners Lincoln Page and Robert FN Kan.
The duo used simple, clean lines. To avoid appearing too mechanical and boxy, they incorporated portholes and curved external staircases to provide some relief to the eye.
Some design features of Singapore's characteristic shophouse styles were also folded into the interiors and exteriors of these blocks. For instance, Page and Kan added airwells to kitchens as well as five-footways.

Kraft Foods is infiltrating the growing snack bar category for the first time with a new line of Jell-O brand bars called Dessert Delights.
Northfield-based Kraft has extended Jell-O well beyond its initial role as a gelatin and into refrigerated desserts, puddings and baking mixes. But the new line of individual snack bars is the megabrand's first foray into the booming handheld snacks arena, a $1.2-billion market.
"The snack bar industry has seen double-digit growth, and with Jell-O's strong brand name, the move into this category is seen as positive for Kraft," says Ann Gurkin, an analyst with Davenport & Co. in Richmond, Va.
Jell-O Dessert Delights, cakelike crusts topped with a choice of cheesecake, lemon or chocolate fudge pudding fillings, will be launched in June in six markets — among them Chicago, Dallas and New York — that Kraft found had particularly high incidences of snacking on sweets. Kraft will assess a possible national rollout.
"We're positioning Dessert Delights as a rich and satisfying taste of your favorite dessert in a bar that's ready to enjoy anytime, anywhere," said Kimberly Shells, brand manager for Dessert Delights.
Unlike the bulk of Jell-O products, which are all family-oriented, Dessert Delights will be targeted strictly to adults.
An estimated $10-million ad campaign will run on television from Aug. 5 through the end of October and in regional issues of women's magazines from August through November. The ads will focus on communicating the taste and indulgence of the new products as well as their convenience, "the top two reasons that consumers choose a snack," Ms. Shells said. Newspaper inserts, point-of-purchase materials and kraftfoods.com's special Jell-O area will also support the launch.
The trend toward convenient, no-preparation snacks has fueled the snack and granola bar category, which grew 12.6% in grocery stores, drugstores and mass merchandisers for the 52 weeks ended Feb. 27, according to Information Resources Inc. of Chicago.
Kraft earlier this year acknowledged that growth with its acquisition of Balance Bar Co. Nestlé SA followed suit with its purchase of PowerBar, and Quaker Oats Co. recently introduced a line of Gatorade-branded snack bars.
Kellogg Co. of Battle Creek, Mich., leads the category with sales for its Nutri-Grain and Rice Krispies Treats brands, up 10.6% to $338 million for the 52 weeks ended Feb. 27, according to IRI. Chicago's Quaker Oats is No. 2, with sales for its Quaker Chewy Granola Bars and Fruit & Oatmeal bars growing 15.1% to $209 million.

Sip and learn: Wine clubs mix socializing, education
Anne Schamberg
Special to the Journal Sentinel
Take a book group and subtract the books. What have you got?
A wine club, of course.
Instead of gathering to enjoy a glass of wine while discussing the latest bestseller — the formula for many book groups — wine lovers gather to swirl, taste and talk about their favorite beverage.
By checking in with local wine merchants, who act as ready reference for the oenophiles, it was discovered that there are a surprising number of these fruit-of-the-vine interest groups in the Milwaukee area.
There is, for instance a group of women wine professionals who blend tasting with networking. And there's a fun-loving band of neighbors in Waukesha. Most gather in homes, but one coterie meets at All Purpose restaurant in Milwaukee.
Donna McGinnis and her husband, Mark (and, yes, he was formerly chief meteorologist at WDJT-TV) are among four couples in Waukesha who have been getting together for wine tastings since 2006.
"We wanted to do something a little different. We wanted to socialize and we wanted to learn more about wine," she said, adding that the tastings rotate from house to house with the hosts picking the theme.
After more than a decade, she says they're still going strong: "We've met 40 times and no shortage of themes."
They've done classic topics like Pinot Noir from various regions and a sampling of wines from France.
But things often get more creative. One time it was wines made by famous people; so their beverages were fashioned by — or in the name of — Francis Ford Coppola, the Rolling Stones and Bon Jovi.
Another time it was high-low night, conducted as a blind tasting. Each couple brought a bottle under $10 and then a similar wine that cost around $30. The idea was to see which bottles came out on top.
Mike Dutell, who with wife Kim participates in the group, remembered that three of of the four higher-priced bottles won, but one inexpensive red blend bested its more expensive cousin.
General ground rules for the tastings, which are scheduled every two to three months, specify that each couple brings two bottles of wine, with a $40 limit for the two bottles.
"As we've gotten a little older and have a little more money, we occasionally go over that limit," he said.
The discussion is about the nuances of the wine, but not to the point of geekiness.
"We are wine enthusiasts, none of us is an oenophile," he laughed.
In recent years, group members have begun using Vivino, a popular wine app that allows them to keep track of label photographs, tasting notes and reviews from other users.
When it comes to food: "Each couple brings an hors d'oeuvre. We're a lot less structured about food than wine."
In Wauwatosa, Ron Thomas and husband Bobby Kewan are part of a similarly structured group of three men and five women — "three couples and two singles who act as a team," as Thomas describes it.
They gather quarterly in each other's homes. Hosts pick the theme — a recent one was Cabernet from France, Chile and California — and also provide tasting sheets.
"Every couple brings two bottles of wine, one bottle that's under $25 and one bottle over $25," explained Thomas. "And very often the tastings are blind, so you don't know what wine it is and you don't know who brought it."
For help with wine selection, Thomas turns to the "the knowledgeable people" at beverage shops such as Ray's in Wauwatosa, Wine Cellar in Elm Grove and Thief Wine at the Milwaukee Public Market.
The group often tries the weekly specials at these shops, "wines that cost $10, $11 — or even $7.99. We don't turn our back on inexpensive wines. None of us are that wealthy," he said.
And there's plenty of food. Each couple brings a dish to pass, usually something that pairs with the wines.
One group that has struck a good balance between education and fun is the "Milwaukee Women of Wine," as they call themselves.
"It includes women currently in the wine trade or who were in the past," according to Erin Grace, who spoke about this group that was formed about five years ago.
Grace is co-manager of Select Sellars, a wine distributor based in New Glarus. Other members of the gang, "which keeps growing," include women who work in retail and wholesale wine sales, as well as the likes of Sabina Magyar, proprietor of the soon-to-open Village Cheese Shop in Wauwatosa, and Sarah Nelson, co-owner of Ruby Tap, also in Wauwatosa.
"The idea is to have some camaraderie and share knowledge — and, of course, to gossip about the business," Grace said.
She added that "in a business where upper management is still mostly male, there's not always a lot of opportunity for mentorship. This is an opportunity for the younger women to hang around and be friendly with veterans."
Each person brings a bottle "and a little information about their wine," she said. "And we try not to choose wines in our own portfolios — at least I do."
These pros have poured themselves Loire Valley wines, Anderson Valley Pinot Noir and most recently, Austrian wines. (Bet you haven't tasted Veyder-Malberg Gruner Veltliner Hochrain or Hirsch Riesling Heilegenstein.)
At the once-a-month weeknight meetings, everyone helps the host with food, bringing whatever they have time to make or are "inspired" to make, said Grace, noting that it's "amazing how it just seems to work out."
In summer, they invite their families for a backyard party where they sample the new vintage of rosés. During the busy holiday season, the group gets together less often.
"Sometimes our meetings are wonky and sometimes we just relax and have fun," Grace said.
At AP restaurant in Milwaukee's Walker's Point, you might catch sight of a bunch of people intently swirling and sniffing.
Les Huisman, a wine sales representative for wholesaler Vino Veritas, co-founded this group with Alex Stewart, a wine enthusiast but not an industry professional. The two met a few years ago at a tasting at Waterford Wine Co., 1327 E. Brady St.
Their quarterly AP gatherings usually have between four and 10 participants. "We just invite people we know and sometimes Justin joins us," Huisman said, referring to AP owner Justin Anthony.
You might want to think twice before angling to get on the invite list: "We're not all geeks, but when people who are a little less intense about wine show up, their eyes are likely to glaze over."
Esoteric themes are the rule. High-altitude reds, over-the-hill bottles and wines from France's Jura region, to name a few.
The bottles come from stores, personal cellars and "being in the business, I have access to some allocated stuff," he said.
And, yes, when it's time to head home: "There's usually always Uber involved."
Milwaukee-area oral surgeon Philip Hawkins modeled the formally structured "Oenophile Study Group" on dental specialist study groups, calling them "get-togethers for the purpose of continuing education."
According to Hawkins, they get things started with "white wine and a little socializing — about 15 to 20 minutes," and then the host, who picks the topic, gives a 20- to 30-minute PowerPoint presentation with images and maps of the region being studied, information about the grapes and a look at the producers of the wines.
The host comes up with the wines — with a total limit of $300 — and the snacks.
"We try to keep it fairly structured so it doesn't turn into a wine drinking occasion," he said, noting that they actually have by-laws.
"It's a group of like-minded people, so they all take the same approach, treating it as a semi-distinguished occasion, with a goal of becoming smarter about wines."
The compulsive dentist, as he deems himself, says that after the presentation "we relax and socialize and enjoy a legitimate glass of wine — maybe the one liked best."
It's an all-male group of about seven or eight, most from Elm Grove and Lake Country, that meets six to seven times a year. Spouses are invited to two events a year, a holiday party at a restaurant and a summer party at a lake.
Matt Ploetz is an information technology guy and at 39 the youngest member in the group.
"There are not a lot of people my age who are into wine," he said, adding that for his demographic "wine is the last frontier — after beer and cocktails."
He notes that "because everyone has to drive home, pours are kept reasonable, about 2 ounces. So it's 2 or 2 ½ glasses — maybe 3 — total, but that's over the course of the evening with food. We cork up what doesn't get drunk."
What does he get out of it?
His sentiment was heard again and again: "It's really about fellowship with people who enjoy wine."
Starting your own club
If you think you might want to start an informal wine club, here are a few tips from folks whose groups are already up and running:
Have proper wine tasting glasses. They should be stemmed glasses big enough to allow for swirling the wine. Many people like to have glasses of different sizes for different wines, but basic, medium-size glasses with a capacity of about 13 ounces will do for both reds and whites.
Serve food with the wine. As Ron Thomas notes, "You can't just drink — you need to have food to absorb the alcohol."
Establish economic parameters. "It doesn't work to have someone willing to spend $75 on a bottle while someone else in the group is financially constrained," said Thomas.
No need to focus only high-end wines. There are plenty of interesting, reasonably priced choices.
Chose a theme for each meeting. Button it down with Napa Valley Cabs or be daring with something like high-altitude reds.
"Go deep into one grape or across multiple grapes — and try wines in various price ranges," suggested Matt Ploetz.
Expand your horizons. "Try everything," says Kim Dutell from the Waukesha group. "I was always a sweet wine drinker, but I've really broadened my palate."
Learn the basics of wine tasting. Get a book or watch a video so you know how to taste like a pro.
Stick to a schedule. Donna McGinnis says her group "stays on schedule — arrives on time and, for the most part, keeps the focus on discussing the wines."

Prosecutors Pass The Buck in 'Boss' Case Stating Police Need to Arrest Him First
Public prosecutors now insist they cannot proceed with the indictment of Red Bull scion Vorayuth "Boss" Yoovidhya on drug charges for allegedly having cocaine in his system during the 2012 hit-and-run case, saying they are duty-bound to wait until police actually arrest him and bring him to trial.
Prayuth Petchkhun, the deputy spokesman of the Office of the Attorney-General (OAG), updated the media on Wednesday on the OAG's progress in handling the high-profile case.
Prayuth Petchkhun, the deputy spokesman of the Office of the Attorney-General, updates the media on Wednesday on the progress in handling the Red Bull heir case.
The pursuit of justice in the case, which claimed the life of police officer Wichian Klanprasert, resumed in September after the OAG decided to indict Vorayuth on two charges, reckless driving causing death, and cocaine use, citing fresh evidence and new witnesses.
Previously, the OAG, specifically, deputy attorney-general Nate Naksuk and Ittiporn Kaewthip, deputy director-general of the Department of Criminal Litigation, had decided to drop the reckless driving charge against Vorayuth, a move which sparked public outrage.
A panel headed by a former member of the National Anti-Corruption Commission, Vicha Mahakun, later urged Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha to revive the case, as it found evidence of intervention by officials, law enforcement agencies, prosecutors, lawyers and witnesses.
It is the responsibility of the police to track down Vorayuth before public prosecutors can forward his case for trial, said Mr Petchkhun.
Meanwhile, Watcharapol Prasarnrajkit, chairman of the National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC), said the NACC is still examining the Vicha-led panel's report.
A source, however, said the NACC has started working with the Anti-Money Laundering Office to determine if there had been payments made to people linked to the mishandling of the Red Bull scion case.

With all of the really cool gadgets and gizmos that we are surrounded by each year at CES, it's nice to sometimes take a step back and get a good feel for the technology behind the products. We had the pleasure of taking a few minutes to speak with a company that provides that technology to many industry leaders.
The tech and sensors are constantly improving; it's these changes, as well as consumer usage over time, that drives them to keep their sensors versatile enough to go into a wide variety of products. They provide their technology to a wide variety of different companies like Bose, LG and Sony to name just a few.
Their Biometrics Lab puts their customers' products through a series of rigorous tests. These tests include using the sensors on a variety of different people to insure that a wide range of skin tones, body types, and age ranges report accurate information. This validates real-world accuracy for their clients and for consumers.

Safeguarding is everyone's business
The Parochial Church Council (PCC) of St Peter's Birstall takes its responsibility to protect and safeguard the welfare of children and vulnerable adults seriously. The PCC adopted the Diocese of Leeds Safeguarding Policy at its meeting on 13th May 2019 (see the associated statement from the PCC).

Here is an introduction to Safeguarding from our PSO.
Every person has a value and dignity which comes directly from the creation of male and female in God's own image and likeness. Christians see this potential as fulfilled by God's re-creation of us in Christ. Among other things, this implies a duty to value all people as bearing the image of God and therefore to protect them from harm and abuse. When we are concerned about safeguarding, therefore, we are following Christ's teaching by loving our neighbour as ourselves.
There are many areas of abuse that we are safeguarding against, which can be categorised into the following: physical, sexual, financial, emotional and spiritual.
I am the church Safeguarding Officer for St Peter's and it is my duty to act, if it is suspected that anyone is being abused. There are also some Safeguarding Friends who are people that have volunteered to lead activities and groups in church, who can listen to any concerns that may arise. These people will seek help for those in need by confidentially discussing the problem in order to find the best way forward. Safeguarding is everyone's business, so you can seek help if you suspect that anyone is suffering from abuse. There is a list of contacts on the poster in Fellowship Area of the church for your use, if necessary.
For everyone's protection, those who are in charge of groups of children and vulnerable adults at St Peters must be DBS checked to prove they haven't been convicted of any crime which bars them from being responsible leaders. Those who assist with these groups are required to sign a self disclosure document in which they confirm that they haven't been convicted of any such crimes. However, if someone hasn't a clear police record, that doesn't necessarily bar them from volunteering in church but their responsibilities will be limited and they will have support.
If you have any questions about safeguarding, please don't hesitate to ask.
We will continue to be a welcoming and caring church community for all people.
The Diocese of Leeds provides training in Safeguarding. If you would like more information please contact Sue Lawson, or the Diocese directly.
Further information can be found in the 'Promoting a Safer Church' policy booklet produced by the Church of England House of Bishops. You can also download our 'Promoting a Safer Church' policy poster here.

We forget to decide on best quality simply target the appearance. It is a fact if the look will get people to who notice feeling happy. We can't neglect the material too, will we?

What does it take to get the job? And what does the job mean to you, in dollars and cents? The bottom line is unknowable. Is it the annual salary you get just going from college to career? Is it the sum total of every job you ever have? The truth is, this is your million dollar opportunity – and a phone interview is often where it starts. Many companies will opt for a phone interview before meeting candidates face-to-face, so you must be prepared for this part of the process from the day you start your search. Ideally, a few sessions with a great Interview Coach will prepare you better than anything else. But here are 3 quick tips to help you get a good start, just in case an opportunity comes up on day 1 of your search.
#1. Have your 30-second commercial fully prepared, as well as your strengths and weaknesses. Then, put a mirror on the wall in front of you or on the desk so you can see yourself during the interview. SMILE! Believe me, people can hear a smile through the telephone – and no one wants to hire someone who doesn't have a great attitude.
#2. If you are nervous, walk around with the phone to your ear. This will help to release some nervous energy. One of my most nervous coaching clients used a headset and paced around her office during the interview. She said that this helped her concentrate and released her nervous energy so it did not come through her voice on the phone.
#3. Practice, practice, practice! Nothing takes the place of a great Interview Coach, but practicing interviewing over the telephone with your friends and family is at least a starting point. Set up a time and ask them to comment on your voice and speech qualities as you answer mock questions you provide them beforehand. Why not record the interview and play it back for yourself? You can use a web-based service to accomplish this easily, like www.freeconferencecall.com.
A word of caution: Be 100% sure you keep a list of the names and titles of everyone you speak with. You need to send a thank you to each one of them. If you don't want to ask a potential employer how to spell his or her name, call back and ask the receptionist for the correct spelling. Before you hang up, ask about the next step in the process.
(For more information on this, please see questions to ask the employer in my book, "Job Interview Skills 101").

Column #075. First published in the St. Cloud Times Oct. 22, 2013
Shining through the dark clouds of the demoralizing news out of Washington this month was a story that captivated the world, especially young people.
I refer, of course, to Malala Yousafzai, now 16, who a year ago was the target of a Pakistani Taliban assassination attempt and was this year a nominee for the Nobel Peace Prize. When Brian Williams, on "NBC Nightly News," discussed with reporter Kate Snow the reaction to the prize's going instead to the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons, Snow said that her 8-year-old daughter had excitedly asked, on waking that morning, "Did she get it?"
I'm not throwing brickbats at the Nobel committee. It chose a worthy winner, an organization with a particularly sensitive job right now of monitoring the Syrian stockpile of chemical weapons. No, what is significant about this story is that Snow's daughter asked about Malala Yousafzai, not Miley Cyrus.
'Adolescence'
As I was thinking about what the fascination with Malala might mean, I read a fresh and provocative column in the Star Tribune (Oct. 12), "Let's give adolescents a chance to grow up," by Ted Kolderie, who works on education policy redesign at the Center for Policy Studies in St. Paul.
Kolderie begins: "It's hard to absorb a new idea. So it will take time for us all to see the problem that 'adolescence' has become." Notice: not "the problem that adolescents have become," but how we think about the teenage years.
Fifty years ago, French scholar Philippe Ariès, in "Centuries of Childhood," demonstrated that "childhood," unknown as a concept in the Middle Ages, was an invention of the upper classes in the 16th and 17th centuries and didn't permeate thought until the 20th century.
The invention of "childhood" has been a blessing. Not so much "adolescence," Kolderie suggests; he calls it "the artificial extension of childhood past puberty."
Kolderie offers this catalog of unfortunate consequences of "adolescence": We deny young people serious responsibilities, keep them out of real work, give them virtually no contact with adults and tell them they have no function except to be schooled (and marketed to). In the process, we diminish them and shortchange ourselves.
Brain imaging shows that the prefrontal cortex, where controlling impulses and planning ahead are concentrated, is still in development in adolescents. Nevertheless, there is no good reason to treat adolescence as an extension of childhood more than as a foreshadowing of adulthood.
And this is where Malala helps point the way.
She nearly lost her life because of her bold and public insistence that girls deserve to be educated every bit as much as boys. Now living in England, she continues to speak out, even to the U.N. General Assembly, despite continuing Taliban threats. It is enormously encouraging to see her emerging as a role model, supplanting a narcissistic media invention like Cyrus.
Local kids working hard for change
And this leads to right here and right now, to a section of St. Cloud Area Community Priority 2: "Empower youth in the community, identify and reduce barriers to recreation, learning, service, and leadership roles for youth."
The young people are already out there ahead of us. About 400 students from Apollo, Technical, Cathedral, Sauk Rapids and Sartell high schools, North and South junior highs, Kennedy Community School and St. John's Prep attended the We Day event Oct. 8 in St. Paul.
As reported in the Oct. 14 Times, Jennifer Day, a teacher and We Act coordinator at Tech, said the most surprising part about We Day was the students' reactions when they returned. They weren't talking about the performances by famous musicians; they were more excited about ways to get involved.
There are all sorts of practical things we older folks can do too, starting with the way we think. We needn't be "surprised" when young people want to get involved; we should expect it. When you ponder adolescence and what it means and how it works, let Malala come to mind.


BETHLEHEM (Ma'an) -- The government of Germany announced, on Wednesday, a contribution of an additional support of €8.4 million to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) food program in the besieged Gaza Strip.
The German representative Office in Ramallah said in a statement that the €8.4 million contribution was provided to UNRWA's food program in Gaza.
The newly added contribution increases Germany's total of funds for the food program to €16 million for 2018.
Bernd Kuebart, German Representative in Ramallah, said in a statement that "the funds will help meet the urgent humanitarian needs of Palestine Refugees in Gaza who are dependent on UNRWA's support."

Q: Devise confirmation token can't be blank I am trying to modify the User sign up through these Devise direction, but an issue seems to lurk within the form and possibly routes.rb.
To sign up, a user inputs their email.

Welcome <%= @resource.email %>!

You can confirm your account email through the link below:

The error (using binding.pry)

     @messages={:confirmation_token=>["can't be blank"], :email=>[], :password=>[], :remember_me=>[]}>
    [2] pry(#<ConfirmationsController>)>

The user gets as far as the http://localhost:3000/users/confirmation?confirmation_token=JNXxGzLsZjBTQ-9b-cGz where they can enter a password.  The hidden field confirmation token matches the one sent with the confirmation email but it seems the confirmations controller is not updating the database properly.   Once they select to confirm the form they then receive the error.  Any suggestions?

A: The parameter structure is:
{
   "user"=>{
       "password"=>"[FILTERED]",
       "password_confirmation"=>"[FILTERED]",
       "confirmation_token"=>"JNXxGzLsZjBTQ-9b-cGz"
    }
}

So when you read the confirmation_token params, you could't use
params[:confirmation_token]

but
params[:user][:confirmation_token]

A: This solutions lies within the directions from Devise.
Using "For Rails 3/4 & Devise 3.1+", one must use the update and show methods and the protected methods within "For Rails 3/4 & Devise 2.x-3.0" to get this to work.
Solution, combine "For Rails 3/4 & Devise 3.1+" and "For Rails 3/4 & Devise 2.x-3.0" ConfirmaitonsControllers
But why?
  # app/controllers/confirmations_controller.rb
  class ConfirmationsController < Devise::ConfirmationsController
    # Remove the first skip_before_filter (:require_no_authentication) if you
    # don't want to enable logged users to access the confirmation page.

    skip_before_filter :authenticate_user!

Just install info below. Rebooted OK so far.
I just done the computer in my signature and it all went without issues.
The recommended choice for a stable system which one is? I personally installed the 4.9.75.antix2 kernel without any reboot problems, but I wanted to know if in the future to upgrade the kernel just an apt-get dist-upgrade or install the kernel as now?
Install the kernel as now is what I gather from this thread.
Consult /var/lib/dkms/virtualbox-guest/5.1.30/build/make.log for more information.
Makefile:942: "Cannot use CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION=y, please install libelf-dev, libelf-devel or elfutils-libelf-devel"
I aint sweating virtual box or dkms as I never use it.
: If you wanna avoid my dkms/virtual box errors. Do a dist-upgrade before the kernel install.
I just dist-upgraded and guess what? Virtual box and dkms was in the dist-upgrade.
This reply was modified 1 year, 3 months ago by rokytnji.
just an apt-get dist-upgrade or install the kernel as now?
Based on my (infrequent dist-upgrade) experience, I replied "No"… and nobody followed up to dispute that answer.
~~ IOW, per the docs, "apt dist-upgrade" does not exist, should not be recognized.
Second, I tested, and confirmed that "apt dist-upgrade" is, in fact, recognized on my untweaked antiX17 system.
is something I really dont want to miss in antix.
This reply was modified 1 year, 3 months ago by caprea.
caprea, I agree and am entirely content with the status quo.
I checked all the /etc/apt conf+preferences files and, except for autoremove rules, didn't find anything mentioning kernel package handling.
The "like in many other distros" behavior… I don't know what mechanism those other distros employ to achieve "auto" kernel upgrade.
This reply was modified 1 year, 3 months ago by skidoo.
Other distros do it by keeping the exact same deb file name.
If we were upgrading the existing 4.10.5 kernel to a bugfix 4.10.5, it would make sense to have this auto-install with a dist-upgrade.
However, the kernels now offered are different and it is up to the user to decide.
Anyway, anti, thanks for the clarification.
regarding to this statement "Unfortunately, I have not been able to patch the 4.10-5 kernel (antiX-17 default) or the 4.4 version (antiX-16 series). ", I would much appreciate a "how to" document listed here on antix website on how to upgrade the kernel manually for antix 17 default and antix 16.
How do I make 4.9.75 my default kernel at boot?
I don't see any menu.lst and control center lists a lot of options but where to add the new kernel for boot?
I CAN choose 4.9.75 at boot manually – and it works.
But I would like to have 4.9.75 as default kernel.
Right now. I am plodding along on my IBM T23. Finally got 17 installed. Posting this post on my better Dell Laptop. Because of non sse2 cpu on my T23 and I can't seem to log in yet on this forum with it with Dillo or Netsurf yet. Firefox and SeaMonkey are useless on it. Keeps crashing at 100% cpu. Anyhows.
When done with my Kernel install on the T23. I will reboot and boot into 4.9.75 and open synaptic and un-install kernel 4.10. Let it update grub. Done. Now 4.9 is at the top of the list. I see no reason to keep a 4.10 kernel and header I won't boot into.
Working with this IBM T23 laptop in todays world is like watching paint dry. Here is hoping qupzilla bails me out on that laptop and logging into this forum. WordPress uses java and cookies. I have cookies enabled in Dillo. But WordPress don't seem to care . Oh well. Back to the grind stone.

System Restore is one of those programs that can be a life-saver when you've been the unfortunate recipient of unstable software, a badly timed power outage, or a damaging thunderstorm. System Restore records important documents, settings, and preferences on your computer at a certain point in time. If the unthinkable happens and your computer files are damaged or inaccessible, you can use System Restore to put your computer back the way it was before the data was lost.
It's good to get into the habit of creating a system checkpoint (called a restore point) anytime you're preparing to add new software that you've downloaded from the Internet or anything else that you suspect might make your computer unstable. If anything goes wrong with the installation or the program causes a conflict, you can restore your computer to the point just before you began the installation.
Note: System Restore automatically adds restore points to your computer daily and before you install device drivers, automatic updates, unsigned drivers, and some applications.
Click Start, and choose All Programs.
Point to Accessories, then point to System Tools, and then choose System Restore.
When the program begins, choose Create a restore point and click Next.
Enter a description of the restore point (such as "Starting fresh 2005") and click Create. After a few seconds, the program will tell you the date, time, and description of the new restore point.
Click Close to exit System Restore.

At PromoAffiliates, We work with social media influencers and bloggers of all different types. Every time a new person uses your promo code you get paid. The amount is different for every campaign but PromoAffiliates will always make sure you have the highest commission possible. Our Uber codes will pay you $3 for every new user! If you do the math you can see that you can easy make a lot of money from just one Instagram post or YouTube video. I'll be showing example below.
All of our campaigns rely on a sort of supercharged word of mouth because influencers and bloggers communicate to a lot of people on their platforms. Word of mouth is a fundamental principle in marketing. Wikipedia brings up storytelling as an example of oral communication that is real or made up. Though we want all of your content to based in reality, our world demands fiction. We don't just crave good drama and storytelling, we need it. It's a form of escape to go to the movies!
An important part of every affiliate program is to have a popular blog or website getting promo codes out to their readers. People are very trusting of popular blogs and also sites and will try what they suggest. Especially if they Google something and it leads them to a site or blog. This is called inbound marketing. Readers will take the advice of the site that the Google search led to. This is a whole article in itself but this is where search engine optimization comes in. SEO is where tactics are performed to increase the ranking of a site to rise closer to the number one search result spot on Google.
As of 2013, Bloomberg had announced that Fancy has raised about $53 million in funding. This brings the companies overall valuation to about $600 million. Then a couple years later in February of 2015, Fancy was able to raise another $20 million Series D strategic funding. This was led by Mexico's Carlos slim Domit and the CCC holding company. Also, it turns out that Fancy had a parent company known by the name of Thingd. Thing'd stood for "Thing daemon". Fancy was thought up of for the purpose of creating an invitation only photo blog.
