Are WWE to blame? You be the judge!
David J Diaz December 20, 2021
As a collector of professional wrestling DVDs since 2001 it was rather earth shattering to read that WWE will stop releasing DVDs after Survivor Series 2021.
I have pretty much kept my cards close to my chest on this topic but I truly believe that as sad as the news for collectors or serious collectors rather, WWE and some fans have only got themselves to blame. Once I finish explaining how I started collecting and the thrill of it, I will explain why towards the end BUT first let me explain how I became a collector.
Going back to 1985 and the foundation of Coliseum Video, WWE would really put a lot of thought as to what they would add to their "tapes" and it is evident on many of the earlier Coliseum Videos and even later that they were packed with hidden gems which hadn't seen the light of day in many years. They were a treat for those who were fortunate and able to purchase them, they were pretty pricey but the content within them made them worth every penny and to this day go for high prices.
Due to the nature of these gems if you will is how I watched the Main Event to the first ever WrestleMania between Hulk Hogan and Mr T vs 'Rowdy' Roddy Piper and 'Mr Wonderful' Paul Orndorff. It was on the WrestleMania's Greatest Matches VHS which my Father bought my brother and I. The other matches on this tape were the NFL / WWF Battle Royal from WrestleMania II, The British Bulldogs & Tito Santana vs The Hart Foundation & Danny Davis from WrestleMania III and The Honky Tonk Man defending his Intercontinental Championship vs Brutus 'The Barber' Beefcake at WrestleMania IV. The tape is hosted by former NoDQ.com interviewee Sean Mooney.
I didn't have many Coliseum Videos growing up but over the years I have been able to obtain and watch more of these gems and they truly are fantastic.
The rise of DVD came into the fray in 1999 and WWE would follow suit and started releasing some new documentaries (They were also available on VHS). The first two releases were WrestleMania XV & Hell Yeah.
Looking back at the advent of the DVD releases, they were some fantastic releases and it made us the fans see the Superstars in a different light, they were being themselves. Some more than others though, admittedly. It was great and refreshing to have some content in what was then the highest of resolutions.
On my 13th birthday in 2001, I got my first ever WWE DVD as a present from my brother. Royal Rumble 2001 and what an initial first one to have. The PPV in itself is a classic and admittedly after watching it a few times, it left me wanting more and rightfully so. I remember making a pact with my brother though that we would ONLY purchase the PPV's that we weren't be able to watch. Sky Box Office was too expensive for us and then we proceeded to purchase the WrestleMania's too as we already had the first 15 on VHS.
As the years went by and thanks to the always amazing WWE Tagged Classics our collection grew and to this day luckily I still maintain that collection.
What is the point I am trying to make? Two reasons.
1. After a while it seemed WWE became very lazy with their releases and weren't too bothered about what they included as the bonus content. Some documentaries in recent memory are fantastic and even some from when the releases were hot are also grand BUT it is more of a case of WWE not following up on Volumes. They released a WWE Unreleased DVD with many rare matches from 1986-1995 in 2017. That set was a good treat and included some amazing rare encounters that we probably didn't know existed! As mentioned above, it is sad we will never get a second volume.
2. WWE Network – What does the WWE Network have to do with this? A LOT if I'm honest. I remember once the Network launched in February 2014, I knew of many fans who sold their collections and that amazed me. Everytime I would mention maybe to one that I was going to watch say for example the Eddie Guerrero DVD from 2004, they'd say oh but that's on the Network and yes I am sure it is on there but owning it as physical media is more symbolic as it is yours to keep forever!
Now with the news that Survivor Series 2021 will be the last official release by WWE Home Video in North America, it remains to be seen what happens to future releases in Europe. We should hear more about this in the new year or maybe before if we're lucky.
There is nothing like having a WWE or better yet a Professional Wrestling Blu Ray / DVD Collection and I am glad to have a rather extensive one.
Word to the wise to long time collectors.. DO NOT sell your collections!

Casa Kwantes bases itself around the clients' desire for seclusion and privacy, whilst having a maximum of daylight and open living spaces. From the road, the bare brick wall offers only a partial glimpse into the property and family life through an opening of the white brickwork façade – a subtle indented entrance leading into an initially dark and enclosed entrance hall. In contrast, the reverse of the property completely opens up to the south with curved windows following the entire winding façade wrapped around a central olive tree.
The 480m2 private home designed by MVRDV has a distinct night-daytime separation. It is located in the west of Rotterdam area on a corner plot of the site of an old hospital. On entering through a curved indent in an otherwise flat and mysterious façade with Celosia brickwork detail, visitors are led into the entrance hall. Stepping into the property, it suddenly opens into the well-lit living spaces of its curved and fluid interior. This continuous wall also serves as an entrance to the garage and staircase. The living room and library take up the rest of the space, wrapped around a curvaceous and carved out courtyard that frames the focal point of the house, the tree. The living room's backbone is a long fitted closet of wood hiding all domestic functions including the basement, entrance, guest toilet, kitchen cabinets and pantry. The flooring from inside continues outside and essentially turns the courtyard into an extension of the house i.e. as an exterior room. There is a small basement for extra storage, and in addition, a sun trap patio at the bottom of the garden which provides an extra paved barbecue space for Dutch summer days.
In order to maintain a responsible environmental footprint, the house has discreetly installed a ground source heat pump, heat exchange system and a roof with solar panels. The solar panels compensate for energy lost from the house's glazing producing enough energy for it to run entirely on electricity. Casa Kwantes has the potential to become entirely self-sufficient. The living spaces absorb the most sunlight yet for summer months, they have sun shading due to floors cantilevering out slightly. The design process of the home closely followed MVRDV's commitment to working closely with clients throughout. With almost daily communications, the end result comes as close to a tailor-made home as possible.
When balancing municipality requirements for a retro style architecture, the home became a contemporary take on 1930s modernism with its long, cream, shallow brickwork, full-height glazing, and the contrasting integration of the flat and fluid, open and enclosed, flexible and defined. As the newly built homes in the vicinity are more vernacular in their modernist approach, this variation on a more avant-garde architecture has the been subject of discussions with the municipality.

USC hopes Colorado matchup is the start of a run that leads to Pac-12 title game
USC coach Clay Helton talks to an official during the first half of a game against Texas on Sept. 15.
(Eric Gay / Associated Press)
By J. Brady McColloughStaff Writer
Thursday night, the USC athletic department's official Twitter account attempted to set the stage for the weekend:
"Coming out of the bye," @USC_Athletics said, "the Trojans have 7 games remaining this season, starting with Saturday's showdown against undefeated Colorado."
Funny, but the school's starting quarterback and head coach had a different number in their heads earlier in the week.
"Now we're back for an eight-week run," JT Daniels said.
Just in case, to make sure the crowd assembled around him didn't think he miscounted, Daniels added a minute later, "I feel really ready for the next eight weeks."
And Clay Helton, in discussing Daniels having rested his arm during the week off, asserted that "we have eight games here. This will probably be the most balls he's thrown in his entire life in a season."
Daniels and Helton, the two men under the most pressure Saturday for USC, didn't need to say more than that to make their point about the expectation against the Buffaloes, ranked No. 19 and 5-0 on the season. They expect to win, take control of the Pac-12 South race and get to play in that eighth game, the Pac-12 championship Nov. 30 in Santa Clara.
And why wouldn't they be confident? Sure, the only consistent component to this USC season thus far has been its uneven nature. If something goes well for the Trojans, the safe bet is to assume disaster is around the corner, and vice versa. But the fact remains that USC is 18-0 at the Coliseum under Helton, who is 14-1 against the South Division since taking over as interim head coach in 2015.
The Trojans also derive confidence from the schedule they've faced thus far. USC's opponents are a combined 19-9. Texas has surged to the No. 9 ranking in the nation, and Stanford and Washington State sit just on the edge of the top 25.
In comparison, Colorado has stayed unbeaten by playing opponents who have a combined 6-21 record.
"One of the beauties of having our schedule is you always have to be in a playoff, championship mentality," Helton said, "and it makes you ready for these games. It doesn't matter if it's Stanford, Texas, a Washington State, on the road versus an Arizona, every game just feels like it's the Super Bowl, and our kids are used to that now. Now you're coming in and playing for first place."
A USC loss would be potentially debilitating. The Buffaloes would then have a two-game lead with the head-to-head tiebreak, leaving the Trojans with no margin for error the rest of the way and putting them in a position of needing Colorado to lose at least three times down the stretch.
This Colorado team appears capable of coming into the Coliseum and sending Helton's program reeling. Quarterback Steven Montez is tied for the lead nationally in completion percentage at 75.2 and is ninth in passer rating. He can hand the ball off to Travon McMillian, a graduate transfer from Virginia Tech, who is fourth in the Pac-12 with 105.6 yards rushing per game. Montez has the ultimate gift in being able to throw to Laviska Shenault, who leads the nation with 10 receptions and 141.6 receiving yards per game.
That USC's defense may have to play against this offense without senior inside linebacker Cameron Smith, who has two times as many tackles as any other Trojan with 47, is worrisome. Helton said Thursday that Smith is "50-50 at best" with a mild hamstring strain.
But fellow senior linebacker Porter Gustin said USC has the right mentality to get the job done.
"We have a lot to prove and we know that," Gustin said. "We feel that way, and I think everybody is playing with a chip on their shoulder. We just haven't come together as a team and been able to play a full game yet. Them being ranked is great, but either way we're coming out this week ready to play."
If USC can do that, the Trojans believe it will be them playing an "eighth" game and not the Buffaloes.
"At the end of the day, that's what we're playing for," USC cornerback Isaiah Langley said. "So every South game is going to be for the championship. Whether we like it or not, everyone's going to come in here and try to kick our butts. That's their championship. We look forward to playing our opponents."

"The most important thing is to campaign": The battle for Welfare Vice-President
The Welfare Vice-President (WVP) is responsible for ensuring that VUWSA provides an appropriate and diverse range of welfare-based services to members and students. This year, two candidates are running for this role: Summer Wick-Featonby and Beth Paterson.
Summer Wick-Featonby, a third-year student studying Politics, History, and English Literature, is running for the WVP role because she "wants to have an impact on student welfare and make a difference." While also running for the Equity Officer and Wellbeing and Sustainability Officer roles, Summer told Salient she "would probably prefer this role as it would give [her] more of an opportunity to have a direct role in running [projects like] Stress Free Study Week."
Although she does not have any experience on the VUWSA Executive, Summer believes that it is important to have new people and viewpoints within VUWSA.
"I have lived in a molding damp flat and have struggled with mental health issues, and university hasn't necessarily helped me with that. So I think I bring my personal experiences to the table."
Beth Paterson is in her fourth year of a Law and Ecology degree, and has been the VUWSA Wellbeing and Sustainability Officer in 2017. "After a year in the same role you feel like you want another challenge, another step up," she said. "I think I'm ready for some more institutional responsibility."
While Summer saw her "fresh viewpoint" as an asset, Beth has publicly endorsed the policies of fellow Executive members running for candidacy, including presidential candidate Marlon Drake. When asked if she was "running on a ticket" in the election, she said, "No. On a personal level, [Marlon and I] share similar ideas and come from similar places. It made sense for the mental health policy because we've been in the same kind of conversations with the counselling staff. We came to the same conclusion on our own. It would make more sense to show that we share this vision, so regardless of who is elected, both of us are committed to making it happen."
Summer and Beth both consider mental health the most pertinent issue for the WVP role.
Summer wants to "increase the amount of counsellors" available through Mauri Ora, although was unable to comment on the financial details of this policy. "The most important thing is to campaign and just make people aware because mental health is such a big issue right now. […] It doesn't have to cost money, it's more just getting the message out there. Similar with Thursdays in Black, it's making people aware that's the most important thing, and then you worry about money later on."
Beth is seeking structural changes to the services available.
"We can't just keep asking for more funding for counselling each year, because we did that this year and got one more counsellor and it's still not enough."
She proposed a "support student" system, where students are trained through Mauri Ora to provide over-the-phone assistance to students experiencing academic stress.
"They maybe need a letter to support an extension or something like that. Then they can carry on with their lives, and it will free up the counselling resource for people who are in serious distress or who need more than one appointment."
When asked whether students would be qualified to complete this role, Beth was confident that the training provided would be extensive, and that safeguards would be in place.
"The student [staff member] would listen, empathise, direct them to practical services if they need to, but not take on emotional labour. It's important to keep that protection of both the person who needs help and students who have their own stresses in life."
Summer and Beth had slightly different views on what VUWSA's overall role should be. For Summer, VUWSA should be about representing students and campaigning for student issues. "Who else would run these campaigns, like Fairer Fares? […] You don't just want the Vice-Chancellor to be the only person representing students. "
For Beth, VUWSA requires balance between being advocates for students, and providing services.
"VUWSA is an independent organisation, even though we have some funding overlap. It's important not to lose that independence."

Your own butler and chef are just the beginning.
Get claustrophobic on planes? Eithad, the United Arab Emirates' national carrier, has just the spot for you – that is, if you're able to pay up $38,000 each way.
Not to be confused with the plane with king-sized beds that is reportedly in the works, this cabin features a 32-inch flat-screen TV, leather double sofa, en-suite shower, and double bed – a first for a commercial plane. A Savoy-trained butler is all yours for the duration of the flight, while a private chef will prepare the meals of your choice. According to a press release, a private concierge can "provide access to a range of services, from a last-minute booking at a top London restaurant, tickets for a Broadway show, to the purchase of a rare blue diamond." Swanky.
If you're anything like us, you're probably thinking, "Who can afford this sh*t?" To which we answer: Enough people to make this a profitable endeavor for Etihad, who first introduced the service on its Abu Dhabi-London Heathrow route in December 2014. $32K tickets have continued to sell since the New York-Abu Dhabi route was introduced in December; daily New York-Mumbai service was added this Sunday.
For now — or rather, for the rest of us — we'll take a vodka, straight, with our economy seats.


LINCOLN CITY, Oregon, February 18, 2013 (ENS) – Japanese environmentalists concerned about marine debris scattered across the Pacific by the March 2011 earthquake and tsunami came to Lincoln City on the weekend to coordinate with Oregon residents and help clean Oregon beaches.
As if to greet them, a barnacle-encrusted, battered fishing boat from Japan washed up on the Oregon shore five miles to the south just a few days before the Japanese delegation arrived. After Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife scientists examined it for invasive species, the one-ton boat was hauled to a local landfill.
Tsunami debris began showing up on beaches in Hawaii and from Alaska to California last year. Two large docks have washed ashore, one last August in Oregon about 20 miles south of Lincoln City, and the other on Washington's Olympic Peninsula last December. Many smaller pieces of debris from squid fishing lights to bits of plastic have made their way across the ocean.
The Japanese visitors and their Oregon counterparts held a beach cleanup Friday in the resort town of Lincoln City and a day-long Marine Debris Public Workshop Saturday that drew state and local officials and cleanup volunteers of all ages.
Oregon First Lady Cylvia Hayes welcomed the Japanese group and said their visit is important to her and to the people of Oregon.
Hayes is founder and CEO of 3EStrategies, an environmental consulting firm. In the role of First Lady, she and "life partner" Governor John Kitzhaber have done several trade missions to Japan.
Over the next year or two, an even greater wave of tsunami debris is expected to wash up on the Oregon coast.
Speaking at the workshop, Junichiro Noguchi, a technical official from Japan's Ministry of the Environment, said about five million tons of debris entered the ocean after the tsunami. Some 3.5 million tons of that debris has settled into the sea bed near Japan, while the remaining 1.5 million tons is drifting in the ocean.
The Japan Environmental Action Network, a nongovernmental organization, coordinated the visit to Oregon. Through this visit, JEAN and the other participating Japanese organizations want to share information about their disaster recovery efforts with U.S. audiences and do research on the tsunami debris showing up on North American shores.
JEAN's Azysa Jihuna said since 1990 the group has been working to solve the marine litter problem by providing information to the national government and Japanese society. To help solve the ocean's garbage problem, we appeal to the public in the spring and fall to take part in coastal cleanup activities, Jihuna said.
General Mike Caldwell, director of Oregon's Office of Emergency Management, heads the Oregon Tsunami Debris Task Force, charged with incident preparedness and response, public safety, cleanup, and public outreach to address marine debris affecting Oregon's coastline.
The task force includes representatives of State Police, Parks, Environmental Quality, Fish and Wildlife, Public Health, Transportation and the Marine Board, as well as local and tribal governments, state legislators, community organizations, and federal agencies.
The task force has partnered with 211info, a nonprofit phone hotline, to expand coverage for coastal communities to get information on and report issues related to marine debris. People can dial 2-1-1 and can also call 1-800-SAFE-NET (1-800-723-3638) to access resources and information.

Atlanta rally focuses on changing pot possession laws ahead of City Council vote
By Leon Stafford | Atlanta Journal-Constitution | September 29, 2017
Photo by Leon Stafford/AJC
Supporters of Atlanta City Council legislation to reduce fines and eliminate jail time for possession of small amounts of marijuana rallied Friday in hopes of putting pressure on leaders to approve the initiative on Monday.
More than 50 supporters of Atlanta City Councilman Kwanza Hall's legislation gathered at the Atlanta Detention Center to decry marijuana possession laws that they say are used mostly to incarcerate African Americans.
"While blacks and whites use marijuana at the same rates in the country, these laws disproportionately fall on African Americans," said Andrea Young, executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union of Georgia and daughter of civil rights icon Andrew Young.
"We're spending billions of dollars in racially discriminatory law enforcement," she said, "(and) taking away law enforcement resources that could actually be spent to keep our communities safe."
Between 2014 and 2016, 92 percent of those arrested for possession were African American and 85 percent were male, according to the Racial Justice Action Center in East Point.
The Atlanta City Council is expected to vote on Hall's legislation on Monday. Hall, who is running for mayor of Atlanta, is seeking to reduce the penalty for possession of an ounce or less of marijuana from the current $1,000 fine to a ticket of $75. Jail time would be eliminated under the proposal for possession of an ounce or less instead of the up to six months under current guidelines.
This is the second time Hall has sought Council approval of the new guidelines. The proposal stalled last spring after questions were raised about buy-in from the Atlanta Police Department and the city's judicial branchas well as concerns it could send the wrong signal to marijuana users.
Hall and others said arrests for small amounts of marijuana have a detrimental impact on citizens, including job loss, inability to rent an apartment and denial of applications to some universities.
"This jail and other jails are the gateway to a life of crime and it ruins people's lives," Hall said. "And we can do better as a city."

Yes, we added some more new hardware. To insure that nothing got lost we had to perform a full database backup.
This backup required copying over 70gig of data from one machine to another and this required a complete database shutdown.
Now this step took longer than expected but that wasn't all, installing the new hardware took longer than expected.
The good news? We now have new servers for both the web server and the database server PLUS backup equipment for both servers. The old equipment has been recycled into massive file servers and backup servers so we haven't wasted anything.
The hope is that all these upgrades over the past couple weeks will improve over all system performance and reliability. With all the traffic we have been seeing lately, the old database server and web server have been getting pushed to their limits. We now have some breathing room again.

Flexin' in her Complexion: Bullied girl a messenger of hope
In this Dec. 19, 2018 photo, social media personality Kheris Rogers poses for a portrait in Los Angeles. Rogers launched her own fashion line with T-shirts sporting, "Flexin' in My Complexion," along with backpacks reading "The Miseducation of Melanin" and other apparel and accessories.

Kheris Rogers was in the first grade. She was in a predominantly white private school. It was in Los Angeles. She felt the bite of racism among her peers. She was being bullied because of her dark skin. She tearfully kept it to herself. Eventually, she turned to her older sister, Taylor Pollard. And she switched to a more diverse school. There, colorism among fellow African-American students surprised and confused her.
Her young sister's self-esteem was bruised. Then Taylor inadvertently launched Kheris to social media fame in 2017. She posted a photo of the girl on Twitter. She was dressed up for a fashion show. She used their beloved grandmother's down-home words for a hashtag: "Flexininhercomplexion."
Soon, Kheris had her own Twitter and Instagram accounts (@KherisPoppin). She was posting photo shoots of herself that she and Taylor created. Her own fashion line followed. This included T-shirts sporting her tagline, "Flexin' in My Complexion." Then came backpacks reading "The Miseducation of Melanin." She also created other apparel and accessories.
Lupita Nyong'o posted a photo of herself wearing a black version of the shirt with bright yellow letters. She was supporting Kheris. Whoopi Goldberg sported one while attending the Rodarte show. That was at New York Fashion Week in September. Alicia Keys lauded her black girl magic.
While the words of her tormenters no longer sting, they haven't been forgotten. The behavior wasn't restricted to children, either.
"The kids would always call me names," said Kheris, now 12. She spoke with The Associated Press in an interview. "They would always tease me for my dark-skin complexion. They used to call me dead roach and say I've been in the oven too long. When I really knew I was being bullied because of my color was when my teacher handed me a black crayon instead of a brown crayon to draw our portraits for parent conferences."
Taylor is 24 and is now Kheris' manager. She suspected something was amiss and Kheris finally told her family.
"I had no friends. I was only invited to one of the birthday parties that they had. Everybody else was invited and I wasn't," Kheris recalled.
Now in middle school, things are more than just a little looking up.
Kheris was chosen as one of Teen Vogue's "21 Under 21" inspiring girls and femmes of 2018 and attended the magazine's teen summit. She was picked by LeBron James as one of 16 people to help mark his 16th shoe release with Nike, modeling in ads for the company. She's been featured in a spread in Essence magazine. She walked the runway of "America's Next Top Model" after Tyra Banks learned of her plight.
She has shown her own line in Harlem during New York Fashion Week. And she hasn't hit the eighth grade yet.
Julee Wilson, fashion and beauty director for Essence magazine, called support for Kheris "both an honor and responsibility."
She added: "To stand in the face of society's narrow beauty standards isn't an easy task, and she's doing it with an incredible amount of grace. We can't wait to see how Kheris pushes the 'Flexin' in My Complexion movement forward in the future. There's no doubt in our minds that she'll continue to remind the world that Black is incredibly beautiful."
Her mom Erika Pollard is a social worker. She said Kheris travels the country speaking at conferences about empowerment.
"As a parent, of course, you know, it was heartbreaking, but it made us stronger," she said of the rough years. "It pulled us together as a family because it's something that we had to conquer together. Now she's making a positive difference within her community, which I'm so proud of at such a young age."
Kheris said she now considers her life a mission.
"Flexin' in My Complexion isn't just about me," she said. "It's about every brown, dark, freckled, fair-skinned person who wants to tell the world, 'I am more than just the color of skin.'"
She hopes to spread her message across the world.
"I want to be a spokesperson for racism and colorism (issues)," she said.
Kheris now has lots of friends as a seventh-grader and knows exactly how to handle bullies: "Back off because I'm flexin' in my complexion and it doesn't matter what you think about me. It matters what I think about myself."

CRITICAL THINKING QUESTION
If you created a slogan for an anti-bullying message, what would it be and why?

"We are all equal and we are worth the same" we are equal regardless of sex, race, religion, social status and any other personal aspect we are all equal and we are worth the same. We should not discriminate against someone because of their appearance because sometimes we only judge and we do not give ourselves the time to know that person.
Angel R1
"As you laugh at me, others laugh at you for me"
because: as you laugh at my shortcomings others laugh at you without me realizing yours
Nicolas S-mag
The message that I would give is that we are all the same no matter the social class or the skin color. we must respect others so that they respect us all we are human the same species and we must understand it.
Jaqueline V-mag
Humiliating someone does not make you strong and powerful.
it only makes you miserable.
I would put that phrase because it gives a clear message and because it is true that feeling superior to someone else is to pretend that life is so sad that you have
Guadalupe C-mag
"the difference makes us equal" if we focus on knowing people by their thoughts, feelings, the world would be different, there would be no discrimination, nor abuse. We have to educate our children with values ??so that they respect their peers, regardless of their skin color.
Blanca A-mag
3/30/2019 - 12:05 a.m.
as long as there is a light on the road you have to follow.
there is always someone who can help you, you just have to communicate and not be quiet
Dassaed S-mag
If I create a slogan, it will be to support people of all ages who suffer from racism and discrimination, because when they suffer this type of abuse it is the people who suffer from inside that can get depressed and sometimes take their own lives, the intention of the slogan would be to encourage people and make them strong in the face of adversity. WE ARE ALL EQUAL, TOGETHER WE ARE STRONGER.
Nicolas A-mag
no to discrimination kheris has been a great example, because despite all the ridicule and mistreatment by her colleagues, she knew ha to vatue herself and aceept herself as she is, thanks to great people who supported her since they knew her story.
Erick A-mag
"What you invest is what you harvest". People need to realize that they should treat others how they would like to be treated but yet they give less expecting more. Bullies tend to bully because of their insecurities, making others more insecure about themselves.
Azucena B-mag
the slogan that I would use would be this "they ignore you and they laugh at you and in the end you win" the slogan refers to that even if they make you feel bad and you suffer bullyng, the only person who can finish with that, is yourself, The power to stop being afraid is yours

"I have a surprise for you," said Julio, our brown-skinned guide at Hotel Titilaka in the Highlands region of Peru. The motor boat we were riding in was approaching Uros, a community of more than 70 floating islands, on Lake Titicaca. The boat docked beside one of these tiny islands made from totora reeds. When we disembarked Julio cautioned us to walk carefully on the crunchy, undulating strands.
Julio's passion for his ancestry helped us understand why the upscale Hotel Titilaka, situated in a remote rural area overlooking the world's highest navigable lake (12,500 feet altitude), considers sharing experiences as important as pampering guests.
When Peruvian developer Ignacio Masias purchased an existing hotel on a private peninsula jutting into Lake Titicaca, he decided to enlarge the rooms, add walls of windows to take advantage of spectacular scenery, and provide included excursions, airport transfers, meals, and drinks--altogether marketed as The Andean Experience. The renovated hotel, opened in May 2008, has seen remarkable success catering to families, adventure-seekers, and couples looking for a secluded, romantic destination.
Native people make up most of the staff.
Once guests arrive at this tranquil oasis, they are catered to by gracious staff, about half of whom were hired from local communities. Eighteen large, contemporary rooms feature earthy colors that connect guests with the natural environment of Lake Titicaca. Indulgences include heated floors, spa bathrooms with oversized tubs and massage showers, indoor chaises with gorgeous lake views (perfect for napping), comfortable king-sized beds, spacious double vanities, and complimentary stocked minibar.
In addition to views of stunning mountain and lake scenery, it was the opportunity to learn about cultures built on ancient traditions that brought us to Peru's high plateau. Lake Titicaca is more than just a large body of water: It combines history (considered the birthplace of the Inca civilization), nature (birdwatcher's paradise), geography (terraced farmlands running to the base of the mountains), and mountainous topography (key component of the Andes).
The day before our excursion to Uros we had spent the morning on Taquile Island visiting with indigenous Quechua people who live a traditional farming lifestyle, completely detached from the rest of the world. Excursions such as these revolve around local culture and allow the hotel to promote economic development of nearby communities.
Sure, guests savor breathtaking scenery and impeccable service at this intimate resort, but more important is observing living history and appreciating natural resources of the region. Blending the two is a mission that Hotel Titilaka does well.

Above is the main code sample!
My question is that: As i click the button, the socket will fail to received message forever.
And the case occur in IE6 only.
If you never click the button , the socket ( message function ) will always running right.

Is Bing Good Enough to Replace Google Search?
It's getting late, but it's not too late for some last-minute gift shopping.

What's the Best Mac OS for Your iBook, PowerBook, or MacBook?
Last week, Gadgets Page's Michael Moncur posted Alternatives to Apple's Aluminum Keyboard, a column about his search for a replacement for his iMac's original keyboard, which had bitten the dust – more specifically, too many food crumbs from meals eaten at his workstation.
2007: The notebook computer is a sublime invention. I prefer working on notebooks even though mine are mostly used as desktop substitute machines, but road trips make you even more profoundly appreciate the genius of the laptop.
The new MacBook Pros and MacBooks run hot – almost hot enough to fry eggs. Indeed, Apple no longer advertises its portable computers as laptops, presumably fearing product liability lawsuits should someone singe their thighs.
I'm a big fan of the optical mouse known simply as The Mouse. It was originally sold by MacMice and is now being marketed directly by its maker, the Chwang Yi Company.* By whatever name, it's one of the the smoothest, slickest, most comfortable conventional computer mice I've ever used.
Has 'the Best Keyboard Apple Ever Made' Been Resurrected?
I didn't always shun Microsoft software. Indeed, for half of my decade as a Mac user, Microsoft Word (first version 4, then version 5.1) was the application I used most in those pre-Internet years.
2000: Last week, Lee Dye of the Los Angeles Times reported on a research project by Ghassan Jabbour, an assistant research professor in the optical sciences department at the University of Arizona in Tucson, whose team is developing thin computer display screens so flexible that they can be folded and tucked away in your pocket.

Hot prospect already broken
The advance hype on Grigor Dimitrov of Bulgaria is gold standard.
Former Roger Federer coach Peter Lundgren says the 18-year-old is even better than Fed was at that age. He won two junior Grand Slams last year, and ha's been getting some ATP Tour wild cards, posting up some good results, and is currently ranked No. 326 – and climbing.
But here's where we worry.
Look at his knees. Already wrapped up. That means tendonitis, most likely. And it doesn't ever really go away.

I am now able to alleviate the fears of parents regarding genetic diseases by answering their questions in the light of my newly acquired knowledge.
I would also like to mention that it was fascinating to learn about many genetic disorders. Many of disorders are negative mutations however I was very surprised when we discuss about sickle cell anemia and malaria resistance. I came from East Africa, as a result realizing the connection between sickle cell anemia and malaria made more sense to me as I grew up hearing a lot of sickle cell anemia and malaria issues. I was amazed when I got to know why sickle cell is more prevalent in East Africa and African decent individuals in general. I learnt that the explanation for the high prevalence of sickle cell disease in Africa is because patients heterozygotes for the sickle cell gene are protected against the danger of dying of malaria while patients who don't have sickle cell gene die from the lethal effects of malaria. (Ana Ferreira, et al., 2004). It is interesting to learn that the coexistence of sickle cell disease and malaria in Africa is evolutionarily linked.

Q: Matlab composite 'if' statement not giving expected result While writing a program for equation (5) from this paper http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1992PASJ...44..493K,

I think I have made some mistake (below). I don't know how to include the 'or' from the equation.
    if alpha_sgp<alpha<=(alpha_sgp-180)
        if p<=180-t
          P=p+t;
        else %p>180-t
          P=p+t-180;
        end
    elseif alpha<=alpha_sgp | (alpha_sgp-180)<alpha
        if p>=t
          P=p-t;
        else %p<t
          P=p-t+180;
        end
    end

Any help will be much appreciated.

A: I think there is a problem with your statement:
if alpha_sgp<alpha<=(alpha_sgp-180)

While this is syntactically correct in Matlab, it's not doing what you think it is.
Simple example:
a=1;b=2;c=3;
disp(a<b<c)

Will return 1 (true). BUT
disp(a<c<b)

Will ALSO return 1. This has to do with order of operations, and the fact that a sub-expression of the type a<b will be evaluated (to 1), before the result is compared to c. Thus
a<b<c

Is equivalent to
(a<b) < c

Is equivalent to
If ( (a < b) & (1 < c)) | ( (a >= b ) & (0 < c) )

What you actually want as your first line is
(alpha_sgp<alpha) & (alpha<=(alpha_sgp-180))

Quite apart from making sure that you do the conversions from degrees to radians right, etc. I recommend that you stick to radians - using the built in pi - rather than working in degrees, and having to use functions like sind instead of sin.
Also - you make a curious comment about "not knowing how to include for" - when there is no for, just an or in the equation. Could this be a typo on your part?
Finally - note that the second set of conditions are basically the inverse of the first - when (alpha_sgp < alpha) & (alpha <= (alpha_sgp-180)) is false, then the converse is true. So in implementing your formula, you can replace the whole elseif line with just else.
Feel free to comment if you need further clarification.

Q: Get videos specific to a user from search result I'm using the Google.Apis.Youtube.v3 plugin in .NET MVC.
var service = _youTubeService.GetYouTubeService;
var searchReq = service.Search.List("snippet");
searchReq.ChannelId = "exampleIdGoesHere"; // search this channel
searchReq.Q = "acoustic"; // search term

var model = new YouTubeViewModel {
    Data = searchReq.Execute().Items
}

return View(model);

In my view, my goal is to embed the videos. But so far, the only relevant information I can get are the search result's title and description. The items, each being a SearchResult object, is not exactly a Video - which I'm looking for.
Two questions:
- How do you retrieve videos that are from a specific user only (using the .NET plugin)?
- How do you get the video information such as URL, for embedding purposes?

A: To get all videos for a specific channel using v3 you'll need to to do the following steps.

*

*Get the channel uploads Playlist Id.  You get get this using the Channels list call

*Then get a list of videos in the uploads playlist using the playlistItems call
From there you can create the video url using the "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=" + video.Id


Www.digitalplayspace.com - Office Space App Secrets. An animation is defined like an visual shift in a scene related to time. The visual shift in the spectacle is not only connected to the shift in the career of this thing, but also using its contour, color, transparency, structure and texture.

Anime, largely from Japan, exhibits itself for being quite a bit further and very well thought-out in plot and character improvement than all those of cartoons.
If you were being to ask many individuals what their favourite productions have been without doubt each individual would have their unique individual lists. You'd probably be amazed at the variety of animated ones that may be involved. So if who at any time reported that cartoons are for youths? They're something that touches the hearts in the youthful and old for either gender.
