Moses Suli's journey has not been simple. (Mark Evans)
Tragic story behind Suli's stumble
by Paul Crawley
1st Mar 2018 8:10 PM
MOSES Suli was in his mid-teens when he found his father dead on the garage floor.
The youngest of five boys with a young sister who grew up in Fairfield, Suli arrived home alone when he discovered his father had suffered a heart attack during a weights workout.
Suli tried desperately to revive him but is said to still suffer personal guilt for not being able to do more.
It sounds completely heartless to tell this story a day after the richest teenager in NRL history was sensationally sacked from his second club in just 27 days.
Just as it sounds callous to reveal that one of his brother's was diagnosed with a brain tumour last year as the then 18-year-old was struggling to come to terms with his rapid rise in the NRL.
And that during his final two years at Westfield Sports High, Suli never once played footy with the kids at school because he had stress fractures in his back followed by a serious syndesmosis ankle injury.

DOGGONE: Bulldogs show Suli the door
It limited his playing time to two under 20 Holden Cup appearances before he was signed on a lucrative $1.3 million contract over three years.
People ask: how could a kid with the world at his feet squander such a wonderful opportunity?
"What people don't understand is that there is a lot of good about this kid," a friend close to Suli during his teenage years told The Daily Telegraph, opening up to put some balance and perspective to what has been a vicious fallout.
There is no doubting the teenager's talent. (Gregg Porteous)
"I think to myself, bloody hell, if half of you had to go through the same shit as this kid has you might think differently.
"I'm not saying he doesn't have some issues he has to deal with. And he has to be the one who admits to that.
"But all I am seeing at the moment from the outside is that there are a lot of people with opinions who don't know the true story.
"Moses' mum was left to bring up five boys and a daughter. You can imagine what it was like for them.
"So yeah, the story is never told. But there is always an underlying issue."
Wests Tigers coach Ivan Cleary knows what Suli has been through. (Justin Brierty)
Canterbury chairman Lynne Anderson could not be contacted but Ivan Cleary conceded at Thursday's Wests Tigers' season launch his club could not have done more to help Suli deal with his problems: "No, I don't feel sorry for him."
While that might sound tough, anyone who knows Cleary as an NRL coach and as a father understands that he would have done everything in his power to find a solution.
There just wasn't a solution at this point in time.
Respected NRL wellbeing and education manager Paul Heponstall added that while it was understandable to feel sympathy for Suli: "Ivan is probably right.
"Sometimes you learn more from pain, don't you?
"As a dad, you hate to see your kids feel pain. But you know they have to feel some pain to learn.
"I have a young fella next to me in the car, he is in a wheelchair. And I am thinking, he lives resilience every single day."
And there is the fame and fortune. While some can handle it, most don't.
"Every case is so individual and it is very hard to try and come up with a blanket solution for everything," Heponstall said.
"All I know with my wellbeing hat on is very few young kids play first grade without some repercussions later on.
"When you get things too early I don't think there is an appreciation as much of having to have worked for it."
Suli met with his manager Mario Tartak on Thursday and said he still wanted to play rugby league. The question will be when he is ready.
"I agree, he has to show someone that he wants it bad enough for those people to be able to help him," his friend said.
"But right now he needs to be treated as a 19-year-old. Not as a superstar.
"That's what people need to understand."

Monday was my first real day living in my new home in Park Slope, Brooklyn, and I wanted to celebrate with a nice homely dinner. Having seen a recipe on the lovely blog A Cup Of Jo promising "the best roast chicken you'll ever have" I figured it was worth a try, even if it was a bit hyperbolic.
The photos alone had me dreaming of a slap-up but chic provençal dinner: the smell of herbs, linen napkins, a barely dressed green salad and a crisp white wine to complement some succulent chicken. In the event it was rather less frenchy-chic and I wasn't even close to having those aromas wafting from the oven when the boy arrived home from work. But there's a lot to be said for having someone playing ukulele while you're getting dinner ready, and for aching-bright orange and pink Brooklyn sunsets, and you know what? It really was the best roast chicken I've ever made.
Usually I would stuff a chook because stuffing is magical, obviously. But the simple herb, lemon and garlic filling smelled divine immediately, and the flavour really permeated the meat. The recipe called for culinary lavender as well, which I would have loved to use, but I didn't find any. I did find some pretentious and adorable tiny rainbow potatoes at Whole Foods and they roasted perfectly, along with some carrots.
Rinse the chicken and pat it completely dry with paper towel. Rub it down with the butter. The closer your butter to room temperature, the easier this will be. Seems obvious but that didn't stop me from making a mess of my chook's skin with too-hard butter!
Cut the lemon in half, peel and crush the garlic cloves (just squish them with a big knife, get the aroma going), and place these along with 3 sprigs of rosemary and 5 sprigs of thyme into the cavity of the chicken. You're then supposed to use kitchen string to truss the legs together so it's all held tightly inside. I forgot to get string and thus we found ourselves trying to tie the legs together with fine string pilfered from an old kite, which ended up snapping in the heat of the oven anyway. But it all worked out fine. The lesson being, no need for stressing about trussing if you haven't got the right gear.
Sprinkle a tablespoon each of chopped rosemary, thyme, marjoram and lavender (if you have it) over the butter-massaged chicken skin. Season well with salt and pepper.
Let the chook sit and come to room temperature while you preheat the oven (and your roasting dish) to 450 F (230 C).
When the oven reaches the right heat, put the chicken into the roasting dish breast side up and cook for 45 minutes to an hour. If you have a meat thermometer, the bird is cooked when it reads 165 F at the thickest part of the meat. We didn't have one but managed to fluke a perfectly cooked chook with a shade under an hour in the oven – it was about 3.5lb (1.5kg). I put in the tiny potatoes and carrots (all just scrubbed, skins still on, doused in a little olive oil and salt) when the chicken had been cooking for a half hour, and turned them after 15 minutes.
Insanely easy, insanely impressive. Give it a try some time.


Abstract A plethora of fundamentalist Christian literature emerged in the 1970s and 1980s as a retort to growing feminist ideology. Fundamentalist Christian authors today still adhere to perceived Biblical roles of womanhood. Subsequently, women are being told that God created them to be wives, mothers and subservient partners to their husbands. It is no wonder that feminism is strongly opposed by prolific fundamentalist Christian authors, such as Jerry Falwell, James Dobson and Tim LaHaya. Feminism is believed to undermine God's plan for the patriarchal family structure, in which husband is the head. Therefore, the obedience and subservience of wives to their husbands is a common theme found throughout fundamentalist Christian literature. It is the intent of fundamentalist Christianity to keep women as wives and mothers, despite the contributions feminism has made to expanding the rights, roles and definition of the female gender. The following thesis attempts to show how these fundamentalist beliefs undermine a woman's ability for identity and self-determination.

Best alternatives to Poco X3 on Amazon in 2023
Jazib Zaman March 22, 2021
Design by Saad Khalid/Amazon
Released sometime around September 2020, the Xiaomi Poco X3 shot itself onto the budget phone scene to become one of the most compelling and feature-rich phones under £200 ($275). With a 120Hz Dot Display, 64MP Quad-Camera setup, the commendable Qualcomm Snapdragon 732G (yes, that's 5G connectivity), and more insane features, the Poco X3 is more kitted out than the iPhone 12. But, there's one blistering problem, i.e., the Poco X3 isn't available in the US or many other countries around the world! So, what if you're looking for phone options best alternatives to Poco X3 with similar features and at a similar price point? There are hundreds of great budget phones to pick from on Amazon, and it can be quite difficult to pick which offers the right blend of affordability and features. That's why we at TechEngage have compiled this roundup of the best alternatives to the Poco X3 for 2023 on Amazon.
Best Poco X3 alternatives on Amazon:
1. Google Pixel 4a
2. OnePlus Nord N10 5G
3. Moto G Stylus
4. Realme 6 Pro
Phenomenal Camera
Just one camera (not that I think that's a negative)
60Hz Display
With the Pixel 4a, Google has taken an entirely different direction from Chinese manufacturer Xiaomi with their Poco X3. The Pixel and the Poco are polar opposites. Whilst the Poco X3 is all about impressive specs with 120Hz and Quad-Cameras and fancy "gamer" features, the Pixel 4a is more understated and simpler. So, why compare these two phones? That's because I prefer Google's direction over Xiaomi.
To understand the Pixel 4a is to recognize why it exists: that camera. Hands down, even after being out for nearly a year now, easily takes better photos than any other camera under $700, and it achieves that with only one camera. Google has put its focus into refining its absolutely stellar image processing and tuning its trusty camera sensor to bring the best images around. Photos were taken on the Pixel 4a wipe the floor with the Poco X3, and it achieves it with only a 12.2MP sensor.
HDR+ makes your photos look better by automatically adjusting for color and lighting. You can even take photos of the Milky Way. All it takes is one tap in Night Sight mode. This isn't just marketing guff; low-light performance on this camera is seriously impressive. Capture beautiful portraits where the background fades into an artful blur for a DSLR-quality look. The AI-enhanced portrait mode still destroys even the iPhone 12's portrait mode, and the Pixel 4a doesn't even have a depth sensor!
The display is a big and beautiful OLED panel with a resolution of 2340 × 1080. Whilst it only has a 60Hz refresh rate, I think most people would appreciate the true blacks and vibrant colors of the 4a's display over the 120Hz technically impressive IPS panel. As it's made by Google, you're forgoing the usual bloated Android skins here, and you're in for a smooth experience and guaranteed day one updates to the latest versions of Android for up to three years.
Less is more with this device, and I, for once, find Google's direction refreshing. If you're a camera nerd who loves taking photos, you'll absolutely adore the Google Pixel 4a, and starting at $490.47, it's a heck of a good deal.
IPS, not OLED
Average camera performance
As the lower-cost younger brother of the self-proclaimed revolutionary flagship killer, the OnePlus Nord, the OnePlus Nord N10 continues that same trend of flagship build quality and experiences but at a rock-bottom price. The Nord N10 is also the first Nord phone to come to the US, making it extra special as OnePlus's first American foray into the budget market since the original OnePlus One.
As one of the cheapest 5G phones on the market, the OnePlus N10 5G knocks it out of the park with its fluid 90Hz IPS panel front and center. Unlike its older brother, the EU, the Nord, the Nord N10 doesn't feature an OLED screen, and whilst we would have preferred the deep colors of an OLED display, a high refresh rate panel is very nice to have.
Upgrade to the next stage of mobile technology, OnePlus Nord N10 5G packs an ultra-fast punch. Stay connected and enjoy the digital world without the long load times. With a 30W fast charger, Warp Charge 3T gives you insane battery charge time, which is handy as the battery life is a little less than other phones on this list.
The 64MP main camera sounds technically impressive, the lack of serious camera sensor tuning and OnePlus's average image processing software, images that come out of the N10 are fine, just that – fine. Unlike the 4a's magnificent camera, the pictures from this won't blow you away, but they'll do for most people.
As with all the other choices with multi-camera setups, there's not much point in the other cameras. The 8MP UltraWide camera could be useful if you need to get a large subject in the shot, but images from that are a little on the soft side. The 2MP macro camera is just straight garbage town, it's terrible, and the 2MP monochrome camera is useless and exists only so that OnePlus can claim that they have a quad-camera setup. I will keep complaining until budget phone makers get it into their heads: there's no point having awful cameras; just take them out and lower your price!
Despite this, the OnePlus Nord N10 at $189.61 is a fantastic value and one of the best budget phones out there. If you're looking for a reliable phone at $300, it's hard to do better than the Nord N10 5G, and it certainly gives the Poco X3 a run for its money.
Phablet with Great Stylus
48MP Camera
2 Day Battery Life
No 5G
Motorola's Moto G was, back in the day, the ultimate mid-range phone bringing together great hardware and great software. With their latest installment in the G-series, Motorola has kept to that ethos to deliver a simple but effective phablet for the masses.
This premium feeling phone's biggest selling point is, of course, its S-Pen-level responsive stylus. Get more out of your phone with the built-in stylus that gives you more precise control over the content on your phone, transforming the way you interact with your device. You can jot notes, send drawings to your friends, crop and zoom with pinpoint precision, and more!
With a high-resolution 48MP camera, you can take some clear but vibrant photos that won't degrade when you want to punch in to get that right shot. With the macro lens, you can get super close to subjects, perfect for taking photos of small subjects. If you want to capture a whole scene or group photo, you can get everything in frame with the 117° ultra-wide action camera.
Though, if I'm completely honest, the story is the same here as it is with any budget phone that decides to use a multi-camera setup for marketing value. If you want to take decent photos, it's the main 48MP shooter you'll be using. Any photo out of those other lenses is bound to be hot garbage, and I wish Motorola, out of all manufacturers, had the courage to give us just one really good camera and use the waste money saved to give us a 90/120Hz display or 5G.
Powered by the Snapdragon 678 Octa-Core processor and 4 GB of RAM, this phone is plenty fast for everyday use. If you're throwing intensive apps at it or leave loads of apps running in the background, it might hiccup, and it doesn't compare to 700 or 800 series chips; it's good enough for most people.
With a price of , the Moto G Stylus comes right around the price range of the Poco X3 if it were sold in the US. Whilst it doesn't match the sheer feature set of the X3, this phone is still great for anyone who misses their old Moto. The G Stylus shows Motorola still has it when it comes to budget phones.
90Hz Screen
Great selfie camera
Two out of the three cameras are useless
Not much difference between this and the cheaper Realme 6
Not OLED
Another technically impressive budget phone from Realme, the Realme 6 Pro, is a phone that ticks all the boxes and offers a fantastic user experience for not a lot of money. With a whopping 90Hz screen, 5G connectivity, and more, Realme really wants us to believe this is a flagship phone for a dirt-cheap price… and you know what, they're right.
Capable of producing 90fps, the 90Hz display has a 50% higher refresh rate when compared to a conventional 60Hz display, resulting in a seamless and smooth visual experience with every swipe of the screen. With a 16.6cm big display and a superb screen-to-body ratio, the Realme 6 Pro brings you a supreme visual experience.
We love to see the high refresh rate display, but a bigger upgrade would have been to use an OLED display. 90Hz is great to make everything feel buttery smooth, but we at TechEngage would always prefer the true blacks and colors of an OLED.
With a dual front-facing camera set up, the selfies on this phone are incredible. They're detailed and warm and great for use with Snapchat or sharing on your Instagram page. The ultra-wide sacrifices sharpness and quality to get more people in the photo, a worthy tradeoff for group selfies. On the back, the 48MP main camera churns out some good photos, with great color and detail. The other cameras, on the other hand… oh boy, no.
Look – there is no reason to have four cameras on the back of your phone, especially at this price range. It's just sunk cash, and I wish they gutted these extra lenses in favor of an OLED display or a faster CPU. The UltraWide is a grainy, soft mess, whereas the macro lens has less detail than a Picasso painting! No-one in their right mind would use any camera other than the main camera on this phone, and it irritates me why, especially at this price point, Realme would waste precious resources on terrible cameras that exist only to please marketing.
But, overall, the Realme 6 Pro is very similar to the Poco X3 in clinching onto the crown of the best budget phone, making its place in the best alternatives to Poco X3. The Snapdragon 730G performs decently well, launching apps and whizzing through Realme UI decently well. With a list price of $509.00, this phone is an affordable budget phone that ticks so many boxes. As a like-for-like alternative, the Realme 6 Pro is your best bet if you're looking for a phone like the Poco X3.
As a fine alternative to Poco X3, Realme 6 Pro has everything to satisfy the needs when it comes to a 90Hz OLED display and a 48MP promising the main camera on the back. Moreover, if you are ready to settle on a few trade-offs, then Moto G with a sleeky stylus is another finest choice; while in terms of price and camera, Google Pixel 4a stands apart from the entire list of the best alternatives to Poco X3.

Cleaning out my closet is a scary task. I tend to hold on to things much longer than I should; allow my drawers and racks turn into a chaotic mess that no, mom, I am not too proud of; and inevitably end up going down memory lane, which takes up time I do not have. Despite getting the jitters every time I cleanse a piece of clothing from my life, I also experience an extreme high once the cleansing actually starts. I get everything must go! energy, and the next thing you know, I have no pants. It's a slippery slope, my friends, and clearly I cannot be trusted to clean out my closet all on my own. That's where Tradesy comes in.
Tradesy is a peer-to-peer marketplace (meaning you can both buy and sell) for women's luxury fashion, but it also has a new concierge service that, when I first heard about, felt like it was concocted for me and my obstructive organizational ways. This service is essentially your one-stop shop for expert assistance while purging, organizing, and selling or donating your clothing. How it works is this: Two concierge stylists come to your home and help you with the aforementioned tasks. Two strangers in my apartment going through my hell hole of a closet? No, thank you. But also, by all means, have at it. I signed up and haven't been happier about a decision in a long time.
In an effort to avoid as much embarrassment as possible, I naturally pre-cleaned as much of my closet. When the two (adorable and extremely friendly, might I add) stylists came over for my service, they laughed at me as I walked them through my piles of T-shirts, denim, dresses, outerwear, and knitwear, as I essentially just did a large portion of what they came over to do for them. Or at least, I thought I had. It wasn't until they pulled out their own clothing rack, took all (yes, all) of my clothes out of my closet, rehung every item, and made me go through everything section by section that I realized the work here had only just begun.
A little background knowledge on these Tradesy concierge stylists: "The Tradesy Closet Concierge Stylists are a group of highly vetted professionals from design schools, fashion houses, and beyond. Items collected by stylists for resale will be sold on Tradesy. This program offers not only a high-touch, personalized service, but it also offers women the opportunity to make the most out of the items they resell. The tiered commission structure is the lowest in the industry, enabling women to make up to twice as much as with other resellers."
Oh, yeah, and they take everything away and sell it for you. No there's no catch, as these girls really do all the nitty-gritty for you, but they teach you invaluable closet organizational skills along the way. Long story short, after this experience, I was left 9 huge bags of clothes lighter, a pristine-looking closet, and closet organization tips that will stay with me forever.
Read on below as my stylists, Jacquelyn Beaulieu and Maggie Boynton, in addition to Kamini Rangappan Lane, chief marketing officer of Tradesy, spill their expert tips and tricks for ensuring you clean out your closet to the best of your ability every time. Some of them you might already practice, but I can promise you that most of these tips rocked my world, and I hope they rock yours too.
If you haven't worn it in the past two years, it's time for it to go.
Hang on to pieces you can style in multiple ways.

The Russian Radical
Chris Matthew Sciabarra
$39.95 Paperback Edition
$39.95 | Paperback Edition
17 b&w illustrations
"Brilliant and pathbreaking. . . . Much more could be written in praise and in critique of Russian Radical because it is one of those rare books from which a reader raises her head every few pages and wonders, "Do I agree?" These are the books in life that make a wonderful intellectual difference because they inspire thought on a fundamental level."—Wendy McElroy, The Journal of Ayn Rand Studies
Author of The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged, Ayn Rand (1905–1982) is one of the most widely read philosophers of the twentieth century. Yet, despite the sale of over thirty million copies of her works, there have been few serious scholarly examinations of her thought. Ayn Rand: The Russian Radical provides a comprehensive analysis of the intellectual roots and philosophy of this controversial thinker.
It has been nearly twenty years since the original publication of Chris Sciabarra's Ayn Rand: The Russian Radical. Those years have witnessed an explosive increase in Rand sightings across the social landscape: in books on philosophy, politics, and culture; in film and literature; and in contemporary American politics, from the rise of the Tea Party to recent presidential campaigns. During this time Sciabarra continued to work toward the reclamation of the dialectical method in the service of a radical libertarian politics, culminating in his book Total Freedom: Toward a Dialectical Libertarianism (Penn State, 2000).
In this new edition of Ayn Rand, Chris Sciabarra adds two chapters that present in-depth analysis of the most complete transcripts to date documenting Rand's education at Petrograd State University. A new preface places the book in the context of Sciabarra's own research and the recent expansion of interest in Rand's philosophy. Finally, this edition includes a postscript that answers a recent critic of Sciabarra's historical work on Rand. Shoshana Milgram, Rand's biographer, has tried to cast doubt on Rand's own recollections of having studied with the famous Russian philosopher N. O. Lossky. Sciabarra shows that Milgram's analysis fails to cast doubt on Rand's recollections—or on Sciabarra's historical thesis.
Chris Matthew Sciabarra received his Ph.D. in political philosophy, theory, and method in the Department of Politics at New York University. He is the author of Total Freedom: Toward a Dialectical Libertarianism (Penn State, 2000) and co-editor, with Mimi Reisel Gladstein, of Feminist Interpretations of Ayn Rand (Penn State, 1999). He is also one of the editors of the Journal of Ayn Rand Studies.

Appendix I: The Rand Transcript (1999)
Appendix II: The Rand Transcript, Revisited (2005)
Appendix III: A Challenge to Russian Radical—and Ayn Rand (2013)
Nearly twenty years ago, Ayn Rand: The Russian Radical was published. In its wake came much controversy and discussion, which greatly influenced the course of my research in subsequent years. In 1999, I co-edited, with Mimi Reisel Gladstein, Feminist Interpretations of Ayn Rand, part of the Pennsylvania State University Press series on Re-Reading the Canon, which now includes nearly three-dozen volumes, each devoted to a major thinker in the Western philosophic tradition, from Plato and Aristotle to Foucault and Arendt. In that same year, I became a founding co-editor of the Journal of Ayn Rand Studies, a biannual interdisciplinary scholarly journal on Ayn Rand and her times that, in its first twelve volumes, published over 250 articles by over 130 authors. In 2013, the journal began a new collaboration with the Pennsylvania State University Press that will greatly expand its academic visibility and electronic accessibility.
It therefore gives me great pleasure to see that two essays first published in the Journal of Ayn Rand Studies—"The Rand Transcript" (1999c) and "The Rand Transcript, Revisited" (2005b)—have made their way into the pages of the second, expanded edition of this book, providing a more complete record of the fascinating historical details of Rand's education from 1921 to 1924 at what was then Petrograd State University.
In publishing the second edition of any book written two decades ago, an author might be tempted to change this or that formulation or phrase to render more accurately its meaning or to eliminate the occasional error of fact. I have kept such revisions to a minimum; the only extensively revised section is an expanded discussion in chapter 12 of Rand's foreign policy views, relevant to a post-9/11 generation, under the subheading "The Welfare-Warfare State." Nevertheless, part of the charm of seeing a second edition of this book published now is being able to leave the original work largely untouched and to place it in a broader, clarifying context that itself could not have been apparent when it was first published.
My own Rand research activities over these years are merely one small part of an explosive increase in Rand sightings across the social landscape: in books on biography, literature, philosophy, politics, and culture; film; and contemporary American politics, from the Tea Party to the presidential election.
Even President Barack Obama, in his November 2012 Rolling Stone interview, acknowledges having read Ayn Rand:
Ayn Rand is one of those things that a lot of us, when we were 17 or 18 and feeling misunderstood, we'd pick up. Then, as we get older, we realize that a world in which we're only thinking about ourselves and not thinking about anybody else, in which we're considering the entire project of developing ourselves as more important than our relationships to other people and making sure that everybody else has opportunity—that that's a pretty narrow vision. It's not one that, I think, describes what's best in America. (In Brinkley 2012)
The bulk of this book predates the president's assessment, and yet it is, in significant ways, a response to assessments of that kind. First and foremost, it is a statement of the inherent radicalism of Rand's approach. Her radicalism speaks not to the alleged "narrow vision" but to the broad totality of social relationships that must be transformed as a means of resolving a host of social problems. Rand saw each of these social problems as related to others, constituting—and being constituted by—an overarching system of statism that she opposed.
My work takes its cue from Rand, and other thinkers in both the libertarian tradition, such as Ludwig von Mises, F. A. Hayek, and Murray N. Rothbard, and the dialectical tradition, such as Aristotle, G. W. F. Hegel, Karl Marx, and Bertell Ollman. From these disparate influences, I have constructed the framework for a "dialectical libertarianism" as the only fundamental alternative to that overarching system of statism. In this book, I identify Rand as a key theorist in the evolution of a "dialectical libertarian" political project.
The essence of a dialectical method is that it is "the art of context-keeping." More specifically, it emphasizes the need to understand any object of study or any social problem by grasping the larger context within which it is embedded, so as to trace its myriad—and often reciprocal—causes and effects. The larger context must be viewed in terms that are both systemic and historical.
Systemically, dialectics demands that we trace the relationships among seemingly disparate objects of study or among disparate social problems so as to understand how these objects and problems relate to one another—and to the larger system they constitute and that shapes them. Historically, dialectics demands that we trace the development of these relationships over time—that is, that we understand each object of study or each social problem through its past, present, and potential future manifestations.
This attention to context is the central reason why a dialectical approach has often been connected to a radical politics. To be radical is to "go to the root." Going to the "root" of a social problem requires understanding how it came about. Tracing how problems are situated within a larger system over time is, simultaneously, a step toward resolving those problems and overturning and revolutionizing the system that generates them.
The three books in my "Dialectics and Liberty trilogy"—of which Ayn Rand: The Russian Radical is the second part—seek to reclaim dialectical method from its one-sided use in Marxist thought, in particular, by clarifying its basic nature and placing it in the service of a radical libertarianism.
The first book in my trilogy is Marx, Hayek, and Utopia, which I published in 1995 with the State University of New York Press. It drew parallels between Karl Marx, the theoretician of communism, and F. A. Hayek, the Austrian "free market" economist, by highlighting their surprisingly convergent critiques of utopianism and their mutual appreciation of context in defining the meaning of political radicalism.
Ayn Rand: The Russian Radical, the second book in the trilogy, details the approach of a bona fide dialectical thinker in the radical libertarian tradition, who advocated the analysis of social problems and social solutions across three distinctive, and mutually supportive, levels of generality—the personal, the cultural, and the structural (see especially "The Radical Rand," part 3 of the current work).
The third book and final part of the trilogy, Total Freedom: Toward a Dialectical Libertarianism, was published in 2000 by the Pennsylvania State University Press. It offers a rereading of the history of dialectical thinking, a redefinition of dialectics as indispensable to any defense of human liberty and as a tool to critique those aspects of modern libertarianism that are decidedly undialectical and, hence, dangerously utopian in their implications.
That my trilogy places libertarian thinkers within a larger dialectical tradition has been resisted by some of my left-wing colleagues, who view Marxism as having a monopoly on dialectical analysis, and some of my right-wing colleagues, who are aghast to see anybody connect a libertarian politics to a method that they decry as "Marxist," and hence anathema to the project for liberty.
Ironically, both the left-wing and right-wing folks who object to my characterization of a dialectical libertarian alternative commit what Rand would have called "the fallacy of the frozen abstraction." For Rand, this "consists of substituting some one particular concrete for the wider abstract class to which it belongs." Thus, the left-wing and right-wing critics both freeze and reduce the concept of dialectical method to the subcategory of one of its major historical applications (i.e., Marxism). They both exclude another significant subcategory from that concept, whether to protect the favored subcategory (as do some conservatives, libertarians, and Objectivists) or the concept itself (as do the leftists). Ultimately, they both characterize dialectics as essentially Marxist. It is as if any other variety of dialectics does not or cannot exist. In each case, the coupling of dialectics and libertarianism is denied. The left-wing dialecticians don't want to besmirch "their" methodology by acknowledging its presence in libertarian thinking, while the right-wing proponents of liberty don't want to sully their ideology with a "Marxist" methodology.
But as I have demonstrated in my trilogy, especially in Total Freedom, it is Aristotle, not Hegel or Marx, who is the "fountainhead" of a genuinely dialectical approach to social inquiry. Ultimately, my work bolsters Rand's self-image as an essentially Aristotelian and radical thinker. In doing so, my work challenges our notion of what it means to be Aristotelian—and radical.
I am cognizant that my use of the word "dialectics" to describe the "art of context-keeping"—as a vital aspect of Rand's approach to both analyzing problems and proposing highly original, often startling solutions—is controversial. My hypothesis—in this book and in the two additional essays that now apear as appendices I and II of this expanded second edition—that Rand learned this method from her Russian teachers has generated as much controversy. Rand named N. O. Lossky as her first philosophy professor. Questions of the potential methodological impact on Rand that Lossky and her other Russian teachers may have had, and the potential discrepancies between Rand's own recollections with regard to Lossky and the historical record, were all first raised in Russian Radical. These issues, nearly twenty years after they were raised, have resulted in Rand's prospective "authorized" biographer arguing that Rand's recollections were mistaken. In my view, however, this turn in historical interpretation is itself deeply problematic. I discuss these issues in a new essay, which appears as appendix III, "A Challenge to Russian Radical—and Ayn Rand."
I am genuinely excited that the Pennsylvania State University Press has enabled me to practice what I dialectically preach: placing Russian Radical and its cousins in the larger context both of my research on Rand and of my Dialectics and Liberty trilogy enables me to present readers with a clearer sense of what I have hoped to accomplish.
Thanks to all those who have made this ongoing adventure possible.

I have CML. Now what?
If you take Iclusig/Ponatinib, the World Health Organization has issued a medical product alert warning that counterfeit versions of Iclusig (Ponatinib) have been identified in Turkey, Argentina and Switzerland, and also sold on the internet.
These versions do not contain any of the CML drug ponatinib, but only low quantities of paracetamol – which will not have any effect in treating CML.
The counterfeit packs contain the batch numbers PR072875 (45mg tablets) and 25A19E09 (15mg tablets).
No original product has been produced by the manufacturers Incyte/Takeda that carries those batch numbers – so products with those two batch numbers are certainly fake.
So far, the manufacturer and the authorities are not aware of any additional counterfeit ponatinib products bearing different batch numbers, so if you are taking Ponatinib with other batch numbers than those listed above there is no need for concern. Paladin, which distributes Iclusig in Canada, has been notified.
As always, it's important to make sure you are getting your CML medication from reliable sources that can vouch for authenticity.
If you happen to come across the batch numbers above, contact your doctor immediately, and please let us know so that we can track the presence of these fake products in Canada.
You know how, when you heard those three letters for the first time and all you could think of was dying? And you thought for sure you could hear your world crashing into a thousand pieces around you? And the pain that pierced the core of your being when you realized that things were never. going. to. be. the. same?
But then that special person came along – that nurse, that friend, the neighbour you hardly knew, the guy at the grocery store – who says or does that one thing, or a bunch of things that make a such a difference to you that you find the strength you need to start picking up the pieces, to heal your pain, to move forward, even if it's just a little.
We want to know more about them. We want to meet them: your Extraordinary someone. The person who changed everything in your world.
Join us for our conference kick-off event – the Evening of the Extraordinary, recognizing people who make a difference to someone with CML. Come celebrate with us!!
What are you doing on Sept 22?

Listening on line here. (http://sports.espn.go.com/espnradio/show?showId=scottvanpeltshow) Just announced Few is coming up next.
1. Making shots was a key to the two wins at the WCC tournament.
2. Expected both WCC tournament games to be grinders, Zag defense prevented that and the Zags were able to get up and down.
3. Memphis was a thumping on a national stage. Factors, Memphis is a very good basketball team, should be a #1 seed. GU had come off 3 high emotional games (SMC, USD and UP). Only had time for a walk through after Portland before Memphis, could tell in locker room that team wasn't fired up enough to take on Memphis.
4. SMC, feel like they're good enough to be in the tournament and win a game, but their pre-season scheduling has hurt them.
5. Speculation about jobs next year, Pac-10 jobs that might be attractive: "I don't want it to distract our guys at all." Try to everything possible now to keep the team from being distracted. Few just blocks it out and tries not to think about it.
Scott: GU has all the makings of a team that could make a two, maybe three, weekend run in the NCAA tournament.
I felt a little sick when he didn't flat out shoot down the talk about other coaching jobs like he has in the past.
Basically everything that was said on Doug Gottlieb's radio show, with the exception of how hard it is dragging kids around in Vegas. I hate hearing about the ideas of Few going to other places. He's the perfect fit for Gonzaga. Seeing someone else in that seat would just be too weird.
I hope Few stays, but if he opts for elsewhere, does he take some his current coaching crew with him ?
Side note: When Ray G. came to town, many on this board thought he filled a missing ingredient in re: a defensive tactician. I wonder if he'll get another shot at a head coaching gig in the off season ?
Me too. But the call of the question seemed to address more the possible distraction that the all 'Few-to-Arizona' or 'Few-to-Oregon' can have on him and the team rather than whether he was truly interested in any of those jobs. But you're right; he didn't give his well-practiced "don't mess with happy" answer.
Re: "not being fired up enough"
I wonder if this observation was gleaned with hindsight or if he tried to rally the troops in the locker room and it didn't work. Let's hope it's a learning experience for all.
The risk of his leaving has increased substantially.
It is logical to assume that, should he leave to a place that could lure him, the staff would be cratered. Would it not?
Really? What has caused the risk to increase at all? Not following.
I'm pretty sure that it's in Leon Rice's contract that he would become the head coach if Mark Few leaves. I obviously hope Few stays, but the program would be in very good hands if Rice took over.
I remember the year it really looked grim for the program: Few was interviewed and offered the UW job, Rice was interviewing at Montana, and Grier was interviewing at Boise State. That all worked out real well for us in the end.
Boise State should have hired Grier.
I think you guys are reading way too much into the radio thing. Its the same stuff every year for about 9 years now.
I had a dream last night that I was playing ball at the gym, and at the same time watching espnnews. On tv the head story was Mark Few abruptly leaves Gonzaga before its first tournament game.His replacement was a short gray haired man from Europe. Few did not leave for Oregon, did not leave for Arizona, he just left without saying anything to anyone... strange... maybe I should switch pillows?
Its the same stuff every year for about 9 years now.
Identical? No. There are a lot of considerations, naturally, but several this year are markedly different. Gonzaga has its work cut out.
I think Few keeps that's option open "just enough" when he speaks in public in order to make sure that GU continues to show him that he's "wanted and loved", so to speak. I think Few is always looking to improve every year and if he thinks that GU is willing to sit back, relax, and not work at things like he wants to, then maybe it would be time for him to look other places. And if he said, "I'm not leaving GU ever" it's possible that GU could respond negatively and not support Few and the team in the way it has up to now.
I totally agree with your logic. It's definitely a smart move to keep from getting pigeonholed in his current job. What he said just seemed to have a tone different from comments he's made in the past. Personally, I don't see Arizona as a job that should be able to lure him away. Yes, it's in a power conference, but I would want the position to simmer for a while befoer going there. That way, you don't immediately come in under the pressure to live up to the Lute Olsen standard. It's partly what happened to Kevin O'Neill.
People read way way too much into every word Few says when asked about other jobs. No matter what his answer would have been people on here would have been over-analyzing it. Hey, did you hear Few say that "In no terms, would I ever leave GU for another coaching position" Don't you know that he's only saying that because it's tourney time and he wants to keep his team focused? Everyone knows that he's leaving for AZ! Or else he wouldn't have been so direct. It's a ploy. We all know it. Jeesh, enough already.
What???? Lothar's leaving his job? Say it ain't so! Oh no, what are we all going to do? Will you still be able to post in the Foo? Please please say yes.
I think Few saw what happened to Monson and understands the pressure of other leagues. Few would have to go into a program and rebuild from the bottom. He would have to compete with some great pac10 coaches. If he wasn't successful he would be out of a job putting a lot of pressure on his family. I just feel like Few is happy were he is. Spokane is a great place to raise a family and GU built him a new gym. I really believe GU would try and counter an offer the best they could. GU is simply a special place and the relationships go deep. I think Few would be crazy to leave for more money. Gonzaga has a team that could go deep and I think if we play aggressive we can play with anyone in the tournament. Why take a risk with Zona when you have Gonzaga. If you fall short Mark do you really want to end up coaching a Cal State school the rest of your career?

The Hamburg Public Library dates to 1886, when the first library was established in the local high school. An 1890 fire destroyed the library, but the community stepped to the plate with money and book donations to rebuild the collection. By 1915, a permanent library space was desired, and Mayor Richards wrote Andrew Carnegie requesting a grant for a new facility. The following year, a $9,000 grant was awarded, and the new library was dedicated in June 1919.

I recently read the book, The Crowning venture by Hafidha Saadia Mian. I shared some pages on my Instagram stories and it gathered some interest. And as I love reading and talking about books, I decided to share quick bits from books I read, love and recommend.
This book basically revolves around the memorisation of the Qur'an. I prefer to say Journey with the Qur'an. Read my full review here.
Memorising the Qur'an is a deeper way of relating to it than just reading. We all reach a point where we want more. We don't get the Iman high we used to get when reciting the Qur'an. Imagine the same words passing through your heart, over and over again. It would clean it somehow.
Memorizing the Qur'an is not an all-or-nothing venture. It is continually striving to build and keep a relationship with the Book of Allah.
Perfection like the Qur'an is a journey and not a destination. I cannot sit on the sidelines and be perfect. I need to continually put in efforts and strive. Every effort counts. One doesn't just start perfectly.
Memorizing the Quran would make me better. I don't have to attain a particular level of spirituality or faith before I start my journey to memorization of the Qur'an.
Approach memorization in a relaxed manner. The journey should lead to love, peace and contentment. There should be no stress.
I would recommend this book to every Muslim woman, then I would recommend the book to every Muslim man.
Have you read the book? What were some of your takeaways?

What antifvirus do you have? Chdck if you can allow Growtopia somewhere.
I don't know what the hell that antivirus software is. But try changing the settings if it has one.
I figured out how to fix it.
The antivirus says that it's a threat, but instead of clicking ok or cancel, there should be another option that's more hidden that says "More" or something like that.

Q: Error # 0x89731706 while trying to deploy an application to a Windows CE device I have an application that I created a while ago for some unknown portable device (by portable I mean pocket pc and such). I finally got the device I needed, which is a MC3000 from Motorola, which runs on Windows CE 5.0 instead of Windows Mobile, which I initially developed for. When I try to deploy the solution, I get 0x89731706 from the "Device Connectivity Component" file. I tried cleaning the solution and restart it in case it was still hooked up on the emulator.
I created a deployment project for the application and it seems that there is something missing (it tells me "Cannot find 'x' or one of its components...)
I already developed applications for MC9090 and I never even had something close to this as a problem (except when the device was unplugged of course)
Does anybody knows the answer to this?

A: After some search, I found out that it's simply because the device itself doesn't have much space, so I had to give it more ROM instead of RAM to even install the framework.
A rather hollow victory because now it has pretty much no more ram...

A: As this answer is in the first results from Google when searching for this error, I think that this may be helpful for someone looking for a different answer, as the accepted one didn't work for me.
We have a .NET CF 3.5 project for Windows Mobile 5 PocketPC in VS2008, and were getting this error.
The problem was that everyone in the team had disabled UAC except the user of the computer that was throwing the error, and also forgot to run VS2008 as Administrator. As soon as we ran VS2008 as Administrator, the problem was gone.
Hope this helps to someone looking for a different answer.

A: I had also this problem. I have been looking for a long time. Then, I founded this link: http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.php?493399-RESOLVED-NET-CF20-Error-Connect-to-device-failed
This solution worked for me.
I restarted my device.

Q: Exchange EWS API - Get CalendarEvent from Appointment Currently I've a bit of code we're using to retrieve the calendar for a mailbox address (specifically a mailbox for a Room contact) for the whole day:
        var attendees = new List<AttendeeInfo> {
            new AttendeeInfo {
                SmtpAddress = emailAddress,
                AttendeeType = MeetingAttendeeType.Room
            }
        };

        var start = currentDate.Date.ToUniversalTime();
        var results = this._Service.GetUserAvailability(attendees, new TimeWindow(start, start.AddHours(24)), AvailabilityData.FreeBusy);

        var availability = results.AttendeesAvailability[0].CalendarEvents;
        // Do some manipulation across the events…

This is all working fine, I'm now coming to a point where I need to be able to add meetings onto the mailbox, using the following:
        var meeting = new Appointment(this._Service) {
            Subject = subject,
            Start = startDate,
            End = endDate
        };

        if (null != roomToUse) {
            meeting.Location = roomToUse.Name;
            meeting.Resources.Add(roomToUse.EmailAddress);
        }

        var organiser = meeting.RequiredAttendees.Add(this._User);
        // Save the meeting to the Calendar folder and send the meeting request.
        meeting.Save(
            new FolderId(WellKnownFolderName.Calendar, organiser.Address),
            SendInvitationsMode.SendOnlyToAll
        );

Which also works fine, however what I need to do now is get the CalendarEvent for the new Appointment, to return the same bits of information in the same structure (because CalendarEvent does some things like turning the subject into [Organiser First Name] [Organiser Last Name] [Subject], which we're  internally handling breaking back out into the name and subject.
I could just duplicate that bit of logic, but seems a bit unreliable, ideally I'd just like to re-use the same class.
So my next thought was to re-get the availability for the mailbox, and just loop it to find the correct CalendarEvent, however I can't see a reliable way to correctly identify which CalendarEvent is the same as the one I've just made. I could go off the start and end date/times, checking against the subject, but that seems a bit brittle.
The new meeting does have an Id saved against it, and so does the CalendarEventDetails on each CalendarEvent, however (after converting the new ID IdFormat.EwsId to IdFormat.HexEntryId) the two do not match up, so I'm presuming that's not the correct way to go about it.
Is there a better way to achieve this? Either by switching away from GetUserAvailability to something which returns Appointments, however (and it was a while since I wrote that bit of code) I remember it not being that simple to get all the appointments for a given day (but more than happy to be showed otherwise).

A:

The EntryId that is returned in the CalendarEventDetails is the Id of the current appointment in the Mailbox you have queried. When you say doesn't match up it doesn't make sense (eg it returning current data from the target mailbox if you have an Id stored that maybe out of date or referring to a different object or mailbox eg the Id you get from the Meeting Room Mailbox won't match the Appointment created in the Organizer mailbox you need to use the Meeting GOID and search in that instance).

Your querying exactly the same data no matter which operation (eg using FindItems to query the calendar directly) you use so again this doesn't make logical sense to me.

What does that is not EWS this is a feature of Meeting Room Mailboxes that will replace the subject of the an appointment with the Organiser name for security reasons. This can be disabled on a Meeting Mailbox using Set-CalendarProcessing -AddOrganizerToSubject https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd335046(v=exchg.160).aspx

Conradin
Conradin or Conrad the Younger (March 25, 1252 - October 29, 1268), duke of Swabia, titular king of Jerusalem and Sicily, son of the German king Conrad IV, and of Elizabeth, daughter of Otto II duke of Bavaria, was born at Wolfstein in Bavaria. Having lost his father in 1254 he grew up at the court of his uncle and guardian, Louis II, duke of Bavaria.
We know little of his appearance and character except that he was "beautiful as Absalom, and spoke good Latin." Although his father had entrusted him to the guardianship of the church, Pope Innocent IV pursued Conradin with relentless hatred and attempted to bestow the kingdom of Sicily on a foreign prince. Innocent's successor, Pope Alexander IV, continued this policy, offered the Hohenstaufen lands in Germany to Alfonso X, king of Castile, and forbade Conradin's election as king of the Romans.
Having assumed the title of king of Jerusalem and Sicily, Conradin took possession of the duchy of Swabia in 1262, and remained for some time in his dukedom. Conradin's first invitation to Italy came from the Guelphs of Florence, who asked him to take arms against Manfred, who had been crowned king of Sicily in 1258. Louis refused this invitation on his nephew's behalf, but after Manfred's fall in 1266 envoys from the Ghibelline cities came to Bavaria and urged Conradin to come and free Italy. Pledging his lands, he crossed the Alps and issued a manifesto at Verona setting forth his claim on Sicily.
Notwithstanding the defection of his uncle Louis and of other companions who returned to Germany, the threatenings of Pope Clement IV, and lack of funds, his cause seemed to prosper. Proclaiming him king of Sicily, his partisans both in the north and south of Italy took up arms; Rome received his envoy with enthusiasm; and the young king himself received welcomes at Pavia and Pisa. In November 1267 the Church excommunicated him; but his fleet won a victory over that of Charles, duke of Anjou, who had taken possession of Sicily on Manfred's death; and in July 1268 Conradin himself met with immense enthusiasm at Rome.
Having strengthened his forces, he marched towards Lucera to join the Saracens. On August 23, 1268 he encountered the troops of Charles at Tagliacozzo, but the eagerness of his soldiers to obtain plunder gave the victory to the French. Escaping from the field of battle, Conradin reached Rome, but acting on advice to leave the city he proceeded to Astura, where he was seized and handed over to Charles of Anjou. At Naples he was tried as a traitor, and on October 29, 1268 was beheaded with his friend and companion Frederick of Baden, titular duke of Austria.
With Conradin's death the legitimate Hohenstaufen line became extinct. His remains, with those of Frederick of Baden, lie in the church of the monastery of Santa Maria del Carmine at Naples, founded by his mother for the good of his soul; and here in 1847 Maximilian, crown prince of Bavaria, erected a marble statue by Thorwaldsen to his memory. In the great 14th century Manesse manuscript, a collection of medieval German lyrics, preserved at Heidelberg, there appear two songs written by Conradin, and his fate has formed the subject of several dramas.

Carl Honoré is a Canadian journalist who wrote the internationally best-selling book about the Slow Movement: In Praise of Slowness: How A Worldwide Movement Is Challenging the Cult of Speed (2005).
A loose and international effort by the harried and haggard to decelerate the pace of their lives, the Slow Movement spans everything from telecommunications (slow email) and health care (slow medicine) to diet (slow food) and public space (slow cities).
In Praise of Slowness plots the lineage of our speed-obsessed society. While it recognizes the difficulty of slowing down, it also highlights the successes of everyday people around the world who have found ways of doing it. Honoré traces his 'aha' moment to his son's bedtime, when Honore would race through storybooks -- skipping pages, reading portions of paragraphs -- to move things along. (He's since reformed.)
In 2008, he came out with a new book, Under Pressure: Rescuing Our Children from the Culture of Hyper-Parenting, which promotes a more relaxed and more hands-off technique for raising and educating children: slow parenting.
Honoré was born in Scotland, but considers Edmonton his hometown. After he graduated from Edinburgh University with degrees in History and Italian, he worked with street children in Brazil, which inspired him to take up journalism. Since 1991, he has reported from all over Europe and South America, spending three years as a correspondent in Buenos Aires. His work has appeared in publications including the Economist, Observer, American Way, National Post, Globe and Mail, Houston Chronicle, and the Miami Herald.

Integrity Management Writer began in 2004 as a company dedicated to finding documentation solutions that would simplify regulatory compliance for the oil and gas industry. To that end, we developed tools that would put operators back in control of their own programs, enabling them to tailor their processes and procedures, without the need for costly consultants.
As we grew, we developed procedural templates that could be used across the industry–from transmission, distribution, drilling (both onshore and offshore) to asset integrity management. Again and again, we have seen companies large and small improve their performance and reduce their costs by implementing consistent, repeatable procedures.


I just came across a great article in Kolkata's Anandabazar Patrika in which the writer has cited a nice story.
The story goes like this: When the moon voyagers led by Neil Armstrong were rehearsing their space journey in a desert of western America in 1969, they met a man who belonged to the indigenous community of that country.
The indigenous man asked them: "Why are you going to the moon of all places? Moon is the abode of God!" The astronauts tried to convince him about the new discovery that the human race was about to make, but he wasn't very convinced. He requested them to take a message from him to God. If they met God on the moon, they should pass on his message to Him. They agreed and he gave them his message.
I can clearly see where this man was coming from. He belonged to a Native American tribe and had known and experienced how all their lands were occupied by foreign settlers, and how settlers had hunted down both humans and other species in order to be successful in their occupation.
When I try to browse through the history of us, humans, since the beginning, it is indeed mired with our history of occupation and destruction, it is our history of killing other species and razing nature to the ground in order to "develop" our living conditions. To us, it has always been about our survival -- and in order to sustain it, we destroyed anything that came in our path.
The narratives that we have been glorifying since the invention of telling tales only reflect our greed for expansion.
As the world's fantastic resources were unfolding before us, we thought those resources were unending. We thought other species mustn't get a hold of those resources, we thought all of it was ours as we started calling ourselves "homo sapiens" (the wise man).
In the beginning, in ancient times, as ignorant men, we noticed that nature was mightier than us and we started bowing to nature as our God and thought that all those resources were God's blessings for us, and we (and only we) had the right to exploit them.
After thousands of years of ceaseless exploitation of those resources, as wise men, we thought we should no longer remain slaves of that nature, rather, we must conquer it and bring it to its knees.
With that "wise" thinking, we began to invent tools in order make nature submissive to us, to kill species that didn't surrender to our desires, wipe out civilizations that couldn't serve our interests. And then the genocidal instincts crept into our psyche.
We engaged those "most" in felling trees, in filling up rivers and waterbodies, in slicing up the hills and mountains, in grabbing lands, in erecting sky-high buildings to replace mountains, and in firing bullets against each other.
After all this thirst for newer discoveries, after all these adventures, after all this thirst for blood, we the "human God" saw there was nothing else to achieve as the mightiest force on Earth, and we became depressed.
That depression, perhaps, led us to invent an international day for protecting the Earth's environment.
We perform all the rituals to observe the day in utter helplessness, knowing fully well that it is possible to reverse the condition, but we aren't capable of accomplishing the reversal.
Now, our godliness is failing in all corners of the Earth which we had conquered with our valiant boldness and we did not spare an inch in our mad run for exploitation. Now, our oceans are filled up with garbage that we create, our lands are infested with the poison that we invent, our rivers run dry or are busy consuming excreta, which too is corrupted by the food adulterated by thousands of chemicals, millions of people across the world are still starving, and the last outposts of forests are about to disappear.
We, the human God, don't know where to go from here, and we're depressed -- not because we want to find our way back to the nature God, but because there's nothing more to occupy.


Living with schizophrenia, I've experienced all manner of delusions about the way I think things are, and the way they actually are. Delusions signal a break with reality and, no matter how seemingly insignificant they may be, delusions should immediately be addressed with a mental health professional. Delusions are almost always ridiculous iterations of reality. They are skewed perspectives on the way things actually are, and they can arise in any number of situations. Coming to terms with the ridiculousness of your delusions is a process of awareness, then unpacking and analyzing the delusion — testing it against reality. Finally, you have to accept the delusion for what it is: a strange construct of your mind.
I have had many delusions the strongest and most prevalent one has been the notion that people are emotionally assaulting me somehow, either with words or judgments. I'm afraid, almost constantly, that people are making fun of me.
Through therapy, I've recently begun becoming aware of the persistence of this delusion, and learning to recognize when it is happening. Just the other day, I was walking down the street past a CrossFit studio, and I had the belief that the people inside were making fun of how fat I am. Surely this is ridiculous, but the thought overtook me and I was lost in a spiral of self-doubt before I was able to stop myself and say, "Ok, Mike, this is a delusion." Somehow, the buried words of my therapist, stating that this was step one to coming to terms with things, came to the forefront of my mind. I'm still working on being mindful and aware of the things that careen through my head and, like everything else, it's a long process. I stopped myself though, and I made myself aware that what I was thinking as I passed that fitness studio was a delusion. That alone took a great deal of fire out of the situation and made me realize that some things only exist in my head.
This notion, that certain realities exist only your head, is something you have to wrap your otherwise conscious mind around if you struggle with delusions. It's not something that "normal people" have to do. Most of the time, people are able to trust their intuitions, but that isn't the case when you live with schizophrenia because your intuitions lie to you and make you think things that aren't based in reality. Realizing that is a huge step in terms of recovery because it opens the window for mindfulness.
As I walked away from that gym and became aware that what I was thinking was a delusion, I began to unpack the thought and analyze it for what it was. It was simply some insecurity coming to the surface through a function of a messed up brain. The thought that I was being mocked caused me a great deal of stress in the moment but, once I acknowledged that the source was insecurity, something many people deal with every day, the delusion began to lose its power. Everyone has insecurities, everyone has anxieties that they don't express and everyone worries about what other people think of them. Most of the time, people don't get the fight-or-flight response due to these thoughts, but it was simply an insecurity and it was a normal operating procedure for me. I realized that there's nothing overtly wrong with the way I look and for people to laugh about how fat I am would mean that our society is severely messed up. This was just a delusion triggered by childhood insecurity and bullying I had experienced as a kid. There seemed to be little power left in that paranoia, but I still had a trick in my bag to deal with the lasting effects of such a seemingly shocking encounter.
That trick is acceptance. I had to accept that my mind does strange things sometimes and there's not a lot I can do about it, outside of what I'm already doing in recovery: taking my meds, working on myself, and going to therapy. My mind is messed up, it does things I don't like sometimes and it tells me things that aren't true. It seems like I have to reaccept this fact every time I come up against a situation where I face paranoia and delusions. While I know innately that the things my mind is telling me aren't based in reality, that doesn't make them stop. Even if the people in that gym were making fun of me, it wouldn't have been the end of the world, and it would be their problem for being insecure enough to try to bring someone down a peg. In either situation, it isn't my fault and it isn't my problem. Yes, I'm a big guy but people stopped making fun of people for that in grade school, and I don't have to be afraid of that anymore.
The delusion was a ridiculous function of my mind and my insecurities. It wasn't based in fact. Most of my delusions are ridiculous and sometimes they're so far out of the scope of reality that I wonder how I even arrived at those notions. Either way, it's not my fault when it happens. I just need to be aware, be analytical, and be accepting of things for how they truly are and I'll be alright. I think that's true for anyone.


My name is Heather and I'm a terrible blogger.
This year I'm going to attempt post-a-day 2014, just as I did in 2012.
2013 was quite the year. Lessons, growth, change, discovery. Graduation from college with my bachelor's degree. Getting into my first choice criminology grad program. Moving out of and away, far away, from my parents' home and my home town. Those were the broad marking points of 2013. Many little moments in and of each.
I don't fully have my plans for 2014 written out yet. Hopefully these will come within the week. Expect pictures, quotes, progress updates, and hopefully a bit more focus as the weeks go by.


Leading up to Wanted: Weapons of Fate's thoroughly anticipated release, Grin Barcelona has released yet another video of in-game footage. This one details how one curves bullets, something we could only describe in our preview of the game published two weeks ago.
For the most part, the video explains itself, but I wanted to point out a few details. Right at the beginning, you see Wesley smashing an enemy's head in with his knee. This is one of the many different close quarter combat moves in the game, and, take it from me, they all look that vicious. Second, almost every time the video shows curving bullets, they explode on contact. This only happens when Wesley has equipped a weapon that fires several rounds at once. With regular pistols, you're only going to get that slow mo sequence (see :21- 0:22) if you get a head shot. Lastly, at 0:32, you get a good look at what blind fire–one of my favorite details about Wanted–looks like. Notice how the camera is brought up close, and you can't see where you are shooting: you're really firing blind. I love how the proximity of the camera to the player adds realism and intensity to an already exciting atmosphere.
At this point, the game is looking like it might turn out much better than most other movie-inspired games. We can't wait to get our hands on the full version.


Customers have had enough of rising water and sewerage bills and rising water company profits said the Ofwat National Customer Council (ONCC).
When Ian Byatt, director general of water services, resets price limits in 1999 they will want to see their bills falling in real terms.
'Bills for electricity, gas and telecoms are already falling in real terms. Why not for water too? Although the regulator moderated price increases at the last review, many customers' bills are still rising in real terms.
'In the absence of a healthy dose of competition in the water industry, ONCC looks to the regulator to take the toughest action possible, to the extent that his statutory duties allow, to get water bills down - and to see that they stay down.
'ONCC would like to see an immediate and substantial cut in average bills in 2000-01 and thereafter average bills kept to below the rate of inflation.
'Since privatisation, customers have seen above inflation increases in their bills to pay for the large investment programme which has put water quality at its highest level in history and has led to substantial improvements in environmental quality standards.
'In my view, water companies have rewarded their shareholders handsomely but have treated their customers much more mean- spiritedly. Customers have had enough of big profits and rising dividends and, at best, being handed back the small change.
The council made its comments on the day that Ian Byatt published his objectives and the timetable for the next Periodic Review, which will be completed in December 1999.
In some regions companies may suggest that they must invest in additional resources, and that higher bills will be required to ensure that they are able to maintain domestic supplies in future. That would not be acceptable to customers while leakage remains high.
Surrey CC's new leader has admitted the council has not done enough in the past to ensure it is financially sustainable.
As the internet becomes our default option for shopping, forward-thinking councils are trying to encapsulate a new sense of purpose and place for town centres struggling with the rising tide of empty shopfronts.


Lamborghini is an Italian sports car manufacturer and luxury brand. The company was founded in 1963 and remains one of the most coveted car makes in the world. They launched their first fragrance, Lamborghini Pour Homme, in 1999.
When Ferruccio Lamborghini started the company in the early 60's it was with one simple goal; to create the fastest and most refined sports car in Italy. By this time Ferrucio was already an industrial magnate. He had a simple upbringing in a family of grape farmers and made his fortune by constructing tractors. A born tinkerer, he loved buying cars and taking them apart and while in the army he became known for his skill with a wrench. When Ferrari became well known for their sports cars in the late 50's, Lamborghini was impressed but soon became convinced he could create a better car using technologies he had developed for his tractor company. He saw Ferraris as too noisy and not resilient enough, essentially a racing car that was not meant to be driven around on regular roads. Using his own tractor parts, Lamborghini set about manufacturing his own luxury car, a so-called Gran Turismo, a high-performing type of sports car capable of long trips on all kinds of roads. The Lamborghini Miura P400 was the brand's first major success and remains a classic car. Lamborghini has since gone on to become one of the major luxury car manufacturers in the world and the name is synonymous with high performance and the utmost quality. Aside from the legendary Miura, some of their most well-known models include Murcielago, Diablo and Aventador.
The first Lamborghini fragrance for men was the elegantly spicy and aromatic Lamborghini Pour Homme. The scent comes in a fetching bottle reminiscent of the brand's classic cars and the scent itself is a mix of citrus fruit, pepper, juniper, coriander and sage on a base of pinewood and orris root. Other notable examples of Lamborghini cologne are Overall (2004), a citric aromatic in a stopwatch-themed bottle and Lamborghini Classico (2013), a blend of passion fruit, lemon, herbs and lavender on a woody benzoin base. Lamborghini aftershave and fragrances are sometimes released under the name Tonino Lamborghini.


By AGENCE FRANCE PRESSE, Accra, Ghana, Aug 25 – Former United Nations secretary general Kofi Annan will receive a state funeral and burial in Ghana on September 13, the Ghanaian president said on Friday, calling it "a major event for our country".
The announcement was made by President Nana Akufo-Addo following a meeting with Annan's family in Accra.
"Kofi Annan was one of the most illustrious people of this generation. He was like an elderly brother," Akufo-Addo said.
"It's going to be a major event for our country… I expect many leaders to be present," he said, adding that he would be buried in Accra's new military cemetery.
Born in Kumasi, the capital city of Ghana's Ashanti region, Annan devoted four decades of his working life to the UN and was the first chief from sub-Saharan Africa.
Following his death in Switzerland, where he lived not far from the UN European headquarters in Geneva, Akufo-Addo announced a week of mourning for "one of our greatest compatriots".


The one-minute-and-a-half sneak peek shows the desert region of Agrabah and the Cave of Wonders, the mysterious realm where the titular hero finds the lamp containing a wish-granting genie, known in folklore as a djinn.
The remake of Disney's 1992 hit loosely based on the ancient Arabic collection of folk tales "One Thousand and One Nights" will be directed by Guy Ritchie, who also helmed the Sherlock Holmes trilogy and the 2017 adaptation of the legend of King Arthur.
The surprise release has received some warm applause from fans of the original.
The casting of Mena Massoud, a Canadian actor born in Egypt, to play the lead role of Aladdin has been praised. Another actor of middle-eastern descent, Marwan Kenzari, has been tapped to play the villain Jafar.
Will Smith will take the role of Genie, who was originally voiced by late comedian Robin Williams in the 1992 version and its sequel.
The selection of English actress Naomi Scott however has been surrounded by controversy, with many accusing the film's producers of 'whitewashing' the role for not choosing an actress with middle-eastern or Arabic descent and tanning their performers so as to make them look more suited for their roles.
The 2010 adaptation of the "Prince Persia" video game series was criticized for casting Caucasian actors despite being set in the ancient Persian empire.
The 1992 animated feature received widespread acclaim, with critics lauding it for its animation and soundtrack alike. It won two Academy Awards in music: Best Score and Best Original Song for "A Whole New World," which featured the voice of Filipina musical actress Lea Salonga.
It was also one of the biggest commercial successes in the early days of Disney's venture into the big screen, earning more than $500 million on a budget of just $28 million.
It was followed up by two direct-to-video sequels: "Aladdin: The Return of Jafar" in 1994 and "Aladdin and the King of Thieves" in 1996 but neither release was able to recreate the first movie's success.
A Broadway adaptation staged in 2011 also received critical acclaim and was nominated for a Tony Award.
"Aladdin" which is expected to premiere in May 2019 will join the lineup of live-action remakes of Disney Pictures' classic animated features.
Among the new project's biggest hits is 2017's "Beauty and the Beast," which became the 14th highest-grossing film of all-time after getting more than $1.2 billion worldwide.
