I just had to let you all know! Today, while quickly washing up after eating dinner, I poured some Dawn liquid detergent onto one of two frying pans I was cleaning. The liquid poured out of the container and landed on the large frying pan. As I set the bottle back on the counter, I looked back at the frying pan to see the detergent had formed the shape of a perfect blue heart. Unfortunately, my hands were moving so quickly I didn't have a chance to stop and admire this beautiful blue heart, an unexpected work of art, as long as I would have liked. At times, these "tiny treasures" are fleeting while at other times they linger.
Stay tuned for upcoming stories of "tiny treasures" both past and future. I see them as signs of comfort from the angels. Is my son, his angel, reaching out to me with comfort, hope and love?
Hugs and hope to all bereaved parents.

Sufis Denied Legal Rights, Refuse to Appear Before Court
Written by Admin on July 19, 2018 . Posted in NEWS
The persecution of religious minorities in Iran- The Dervishes Gonabadi arrested
On Monday, September 16th, Sepideh Moradi, and Shokufeh Yadollahi, two Iranian Sufi women, both refused to appear in court to respond to charges resulting from protests on February 19th by Iran's Gonabadi Sufi in northern Tehran. Their refusal was in protest of the denial of defense counsel for Sufi prisoners and the failure on the part of prison authorities to observe due process of law.
Sepideh Moradi was summoned to the 15th Branch of the Revolutionary Court of Tehran by Judge Salavati on July 14, 2018. Declaring that Sufi prisoners have been denied their legal right to attorneys, she refused to appear in court.
Sepideh Moradi and Shokoufeh Yadollahi are two of a total of eleven Sufi, or Dervish, women who have been detained in Qarchak (Shahr-e Ray) Prison since February of this year. The women were participants in an anti-government protest by the country's Gonabadi Dervishes in Tehran.
When suppressive forces arrived, the protest grew into a violent confrontation between the demonstrators and security forces, and a number of Sufi protesters were arrested. The women were beaten severely when they were arrested and were interrogated late into the night, verbally abused, and threatened.
Sepideh Moradi and Shokoufeh Yadollahi went on a hunger strike beginning on Monday, June 11th, to protest their treatment by guards at the prison.
Two other members of the Sufi Gonabadi Order who were arrested, Mohammad Karimaei and Sekhavat Salimi, also refused to appear in court in protest.
Mohammad Karimaei, who is currently being held at the Great Tehran Penitentiary, cited the questions submitted by the Revolutionary Court as examples of inquisition. In refusing to appear in court, he declared that he is protesting his denial to legal representation and the court's failure to comply with its own legal procedures in the handling of his case.
Sekhavat Salimi refused to appear before the court, saying that, "[s]ince no questions are asked except for ideological questions at the revolutionary court and there is not a lawyer advocating our legal rights, so I do not attend court."
The February 19th protest was sparked by the arrest of Nematollah Riahi, a member of the Gonabadi Dervish community, the day before. Protesters gathered in front of Police Station 102 on Pasdaran Avenue in northern Tehran to demonstrate. Clashes occurred after security forces arrived to suppress the protesters. The Dervishes said that the police provoked the violence and posted photos from the night of men with bandaged and bloodied faces from security forces. At least 300 Sufis were arrested.
Another Sufi arrested during the February 19th protests, 51-year-old bus driver Mohammad Salas, was executed by the regime on June 18th after a sham trial, despite international pleas from human rights groups, including Amnesty International. Salas was tortured and coerced into a confession that he later retracted, denied a lawyer, and convicted despite evidence that he was arrested before the crime he was convicted for occurred.
The persecution of religious minorities in Iran is part of the regime's repressive measures to intimidate the public and has nothing to do with Islam. That's why from the outset, one of the major areas, where the main opposition to the regime – the MEK– has been focusing on, has been to expose the anti-Islamic treatment of the religious minorities under the guize of Islam.
The political platform of the MEK includes several key values that are diametrically opposed to the situation currently unfolding for the Sufi community in Iran. Some of these values are:
Religion and State: The Iranian regime has a long history of oppressing Sufis and other religious minorities. The MEK condemns discrimination against the followers of any religion or denomination.
Judicial System: The MEK believes in the rule of law and justice. A modern judicial system will be based on the principles of presumption of innocence, the right to defense, effective judicial protection and the right to be tried in a public court. Judges will have total independence. The mullahs' Sharia law will be abolished.
Human Rights: The MEK is committed to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and international covenant and conventions, including the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, the Convention against Torture, and the Convention on the Elimination of all Forms of Discrimination against Women.
Death Penalty: The MEK is committed to the abolition of the death penalty.

Can gutter get clogged with standard IG2™ micro mesh installed over it?
It would have to be an extreme situation. Not even grain of sand comes through standard IG2™ micro mesh with its 0.0041 inch (0.1mm) opening size holes. However some dirt, such as dust does come through. Now, whether gutter will get clogged under installed IG2™ micro mesh or not, it will depend on whether running water inside of that gutter will periodically flush that gutter clean to avoid clogging. This is the nature, and it applies to every gutter guard. The bigger the opening the more dirt may get through, so more running water is needed to periodically flush the gutter. Under installed standard IG2™ micro mesh, it is practically impossible to reach big enough dirt accumulation to clog the gutter.
Can standard IG2™ micro mesh itself get clogged?
1. Under roof high flow areas, this is why IG2™ High-Flow-Area mesh is designed to handle those areas. Many types of asphalt shingles do release some kind of tar, which clogs IG2�s micro pores. According to our constant research data since early 2005 it happens only at high flow areas. IG2™ High-Flow-Area mesh does not have this problem.
2. Under thick yellow Loblolly Pine pollen, this covers everything, home, car and even pets. It also affects IG2™ performance. This pollen can be easily removed from IG2™ by power washing. Garden hose with narrow stream nozzle also does a fairly dissent cleaning job, however brushing is not effective. When you have such pine on your yard consider power washing IG2™ every 2-3 years.
Does IG2™ High-Flow-Area mesh protect gutter from clogging?
IG2™ High-Flow-Area mesh is specifically designed to be installed under high-flow areas. It has 10 times larger holes then standard IG2™ micro mesh. Those holes are still very small; however more dirt can get through. Since it is installed only under small high flow areas, that "high flow" has no problem to constantly flash and clean the gutter there.
Does IG2™ High-Flow-Area mesh itself get clogged?
There are some chances. Some very narrow particles may slightly stick into larger IG2™ High-Flow-Area holes. This increases the chance to get enough of stocked in the mesh particles to block the whole area. The worst what we�ve seen so far are very short (approximately 1" long) pine needles falling in pairs. We have such situation on at least one of our projects (installed in spring of 2008) with lots of such needles, and no problems so far. In such situation, we�d suggest to even further increase mesh angle, to minimize chances for anything to stay on it.
How IG2™ deals with potential system clogging by leaves or debris accumulating on top of it? Will leaves or debris remain on IG2™?
This will depend on the angle of installed IG2™. The larger the micro mesh angle, the less chances for accumulations. Overflows due to too large mesh angle are not an issue as long as IG2�s installer is able to slow enough the speed of running water. In most cases water can be slowed down to manageable speed. However you may not like appearance of too much visible bright stainless steel micro mesh. For optimum performance follow provided installation instruction.
Does IG2™ (with its tiny micro holes) handle larger volumes of running water?
Yes! Even standard IG2™ micro mesh can handle large volume of running water as long as it�s installer is able to slow rushing water down–and in most cases it can be slowed down to manageable speed.
What is bad about IG2™?
We�d say...not easy to install. You must be able to reset position of existing gutters. You must be able to handle long rolled material (remember, IG2™ is designed to be near seamless). And you must pay attention to details. You cannot just "snap" it in and expect it to work. No, it will not work that way. IG2™ can handle even very challenging large valleys, but especially in such areas it must be installed precisely according to provided installation instruction.
How IG2™ performs during winter?
• IG2™ does not contribute to any "ice backups", and it does not prevent any "ice backups".
• IG2™ does not cause any icicle buildup on the back of the gutter (next to the roof).
• We've noticed a slight increase of icicles on the gutter�s outside edge, compared to gutters without any gutter protection. This appears to be limited to the first few days after a snow fall. Several days later–once gutters without gutter protection become filled with ice–there is no difference between gutters with or without IG2™.
If icicles are a concern, consider installing an electric heating cable right under the IG2™ mesh. This will enhance water drainage in freezing weather and help prevent icicles from forming.
Ironically no, when InvisiGuard™ was established we did not have IG2™ yet. The name was chosen in early stages of the original IG development.
How about IG2™ at wood roof, such as cedar shake roof?
Not recommended. So far we have not quite good results with IG2™ installed at older cedar shakes. Older roof's wood (such as cedar shake) releases some kind of wood lint. When is wet outside this lint stays on top of IG2's micro mesh in form of mud somehow blocking water entry. When it dries, it stays on the gutter in form of light plaster. Strong wind can remove it, but not always you have a strong wind. We stopped installing IG2™ at cedar shake roofs.
If there are no restricted trees we do recommend using original IG and IG2™ combination on such projects: IG goes over gutters with expected higher water flow running through them, IG2™ goes over gutters located under small (narrow) roof areas, with expected very little water running through them.
How about IG2™ at other types of roof...such as metal, slate or tile?
Keep in mind that water runs much faster on slippery roofs, so you need to take in consideration, that even in not so high flow areas you may need to proceed as high flow areas. It will work as long as you slow speed of running water.
How about IG2™ at flat roof?
You can install it, but keep in mind that water on flat roofs very often creates "rivers", so such larger "river's" exits must be treated as high flow areas.

Q: Swift/Xcode - How to set developer environment config I would like to implement configs dependent on environment in my iOS project and I'm thinking how should I do this.
Things to cover that come to my mind:

*

*Some consts that I use in my classes - I'm using some in development and other on production.

*Additional Info.plist key in development (so HTTP urls could work), don't want this on production

I wouldn't want to change it every time I deploy to production.
So I found two ways:

*

*Where to set environmental variables in iOS?
But it's an old thread and kinda non-friendly.

*https://collectiveidea.com/blog/archives/2014/10/01/simple-cocoa-configuration-using-swift-structures
Which looks very clean to use inside the code project but I think it's not possible to implement this inside Info.plist, or is it? And is it possible to include struct dev extension file only in development environment (so it won't load on production)? I would like to have it in the git repository so I don't have to manually send it to other developers.
Also, where should I put the "environment switch"? Is there some fancy way to place it inside the project (but in the way that does not affect production) or I have to add add it to "Edit scheme > environment variables"?
Would appreciate any help with that :)

A: I think you want to create a separate development environment and production environment in Xcode. Set variables separately for both development environment and production environment.
You can manage this in Xcode elegantly by creating two separate targets, one for development and another for production.
I have not explained thoroughly in this answer, because app coda has a very nice tutorial on how to manage development and production build. Please go to this tutorial by App Coda, and follow the steps as mentioned in the turorial. Hope it helps.

Sõru () je malý rybářský přístav v estonském kraji Hiiumaa, samosprávně patřící do obce Emmaste. Vesnice se rozkládá na jižním pobřeží ostrova Hiiumaa na pobřeží průlivu Soela väin. Žije zde  obyvatel.

Historie
První písemné zmínky o vesnici pod názvem Zorvell pocházejí z roku 1453. V roce 1565 je vesnice označována jako Sorroe.

Ve vesnici byla kaple. Kostel byl postaven už v době před 16. stoletím. V roce 1690 stavitel Erasmus Jacobsson Bloedysel postavil nový kostel, který byl používán až do 19. století, kdy byl v roce 1867 postaven nový kostel ve vesnici Emmaste. V roce 2011 žilo ve vesnici 10 obyvatel.

Přístav
Krátce před vypuknutím první světové války byl v Sõru malý přístav. V době okupace Sovětským svazem a v období druhé světové války mělo pobřeží velký strategický význam, Rudá armáda v blízkém Tohvri vybudovala pobřežní obranu a lidé z vesnice museli opustit své domovy.

Od roku 1996 bylo obnoveno trajektové spojení s přístavem Triigi na ostrově Saaremaa. V přístavu Sõru může kotvit až 35 lodí (o délce 40 m, ponor do 3 m).

Muzeum
V Sõru se nachází muzeum se stálou expozicí historie regionu a námořní plavby v Baltském moři. Pod širým nebem je nejvýznamnější část expozice–plachetnice Alar, ve které se také konají v letním období koncerty. Plachetnice byla postavena v letech 1937–1939. Německým Wehrmachtem byla odvlečena do Hamburku. Poslední dánský vlastník Arnold Türi ji vrátil v roce 1998. Dnes (2019) se loď jmenuje Ernst Jaakson.

Canadian group-buying Web site Buytopia.ca has scooped up six of its rivals during a round of acquisitions spanning the last year.
Starting in May 2012, Buytopia began acquiring smaller competitors and it has now taken over PriceDodger.com, Bargoonz.com, GoBabu.com, IndulgeLiving.com, GaggleUp.com and Dealivery.com. These sites will be shifting their deals and customer databases to Buytopia.
While Buytopia co-founder Anatoliy Melnichuk wouldn't divulge the exact amounts Buytopia paid for the acquisitions, he says his company bought some of its acquisitions for cash, while others will get compensation based on their performance. With these new acquisitions, Buytopia is now up by 800,000 users, bringing its total number of users to about two million, he says. It has another two potential acquisitions in the works.
Group buying sites, which leverage the buying power of several consumers to get cheaper deals on brands, products and services, make up a relatively new industry. With major powerhouse GroupOn Inc. bursting onto the scene in 2008, and the group buying market rapidly mushrooming in 2010, a lot of startups were eager to jump on the bandwagon. Yet that's now changing as the market becomes less crowded and more consolidated among major players, Melnichuk says.
Many of the acquired companies were the ones who approached Buytopia first because they were ready to exit the market, Melnichuk adds. He believes that for a company to succeed in the deals industry, it has to have three ingredients – strong technology in the form of the company's website; an excellent sales team that can make deals with local vendors and bigger brands; and a way to acquire new users in a cost-efficient way.
It's also very expensive for smaller group-buying sites to strike up deals with local merchants, says Albert Bitton, president of the Canadian Deals Association. The association tracks online discounts, offers, rebates, and special offers. He views Buytopia's acquisitions as a great sign for the deals industry in Canada, ranking it as the number six deals site behind GroupOn, TeamBuy Inc., WagJag, Tuango Inc., and LivingSocial Inc.
Right now, Bitton believes there are really only a few key players in an industry that once had about 150 companies in the group buying space. Now there might be about 30 to 40 left in the country, with 15 or 20 being big enough to remain relevant, he says.
Bitton says he expects to see even more consolidation in the future, with the number of major players in Canada's deals industry shrinking even further as more mergers and acquisitions come into play. TeamBuy and Dealfind are a good example of that trend, merging in January to lure in more consumers and to cut costs.
He adds that in two years, the whole group buying landscape might look significantly different, switching over from providing local offers to discounted products instead.
Melnichuk doesn't agree. While Buytopia does offer discounted products, he says his company's mainstays will still be offers specific to different cities, though he expects Buytopia may shift to a 50/50 split between offering discounted products and local offers.
He also expects regional, smaller brands to stick around. After all, with a site as well-known as GroupOn, a major caveat for small restaurants or businesses looking to set up a deal is that they will never appear on GroupOn's front pages or as a featured deal. That means less business for them – so a lack of visibility on such a big site might encourage them to turn to smaller group buying sites to get their names out there.
And while Melnichuk concedes the market is no longer sprawling, he says it is still growing and still profitable. People often believe the group buying industry is doomed because they hear of some of GroupOn's financial woes. Yet Buytopia was built using a lean investment of just $45,000, or $15,000 coming from each of its three co-founders, and it is in the black, he says.

Q: Add Text to Field Programmatically (On Button Click) I would like to know how to add text to a field (Edit text in particular) upon pressing a button? My button is on the same activity as the field if that makes any difference. I have tried append() insert() and setText() methods to insert the text to the field (it is stored in a String object on the java activity file). Nothing happens at all when I use any of the methods.
My current code is
public void method1(View view) {
String string = ("text");
EditText editor = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.myEditor);
editor.setText(string);
}

My XML
<Button onClick = "method1"
Text = "text"
Layout_height = "wrap_content"
Layout_width = "match_parent"/>

I want to do something like
   This
question, but I want to insert text to the field, not create extra textviews/views.

A: Hi try to add your method in your xml inside you Button Tag Like This.Here method1 is your function name.add attribute  android:onClick="method1" inside your button you can see below

Will have to see the xml if this not issue


Gentee enables objects to do new operations using the existing operators (=, ==, +=, +, *, <, == etc.). Moreover, the statement priority keeps permanent. The operation processing is executed with the help of special function-operators which include the keyword operator. Then you should specify the result type, the operator represented by characters and one or two parameters which are subject to the operation (either unary or binary). The parameters type coincides with the operands type, thus the parameters will contain the operand values. If the operation is considered to be binary, the first parameter represents the left operand and the second parameter represents the right one. Operands can have different types. If the result of the operation is a new object ( for example, adding ) then you must use result attribute. Also, you can define alias attribute if you need that.
If you want to describe comparison operators for your type then you can take only ==, < and > operators . Operators !=, >=, <= may not be described and are compiled to ==, < and > automatically.

U.S. Official: Navy Fires At Radar Sites In Yemen After Navy Destroyer Was Targeted
By Merrit Kennedy
The USS Mason conducts maneuvers as part of a exercise in the Gulf of Oman last month.
Updated 11:15 p.m. ET with official reporting hits on radar sites
A U.S. official says the Navy has destroyed three radar locations in Yemen after missiles were fired at a U.S. destroyer off the Yemeni coast.
The official says:
"Earlier this evening (9 p.m. EDT / 4 a.m. local time in Yemen), the destroyer USS Nitze launched Tomahawk cruise missiles targeting three coastal radar sites in in Yemen along the Red Sea coast, north of the Bab-el-Mandeb strait. Initial assessments indicate that all three targets were destroyed.
"Destroying these radar sites will degrade their ability to track and target ships in the future. These radars were active during previous attacks and attempted attacks on ships in the Red Sea, including last week's attack on the USA-flagged vessel "Swift-2", and during attempted attacks on USS Mason and other ships as recently as today.
"The three radar sites were in remote areas, where there was little risk of civilian casualties or collateral damage. ...
"All of these are in Houthi-controlled territory."
Our original post:
The Pentagon says that a missile has been fired at U.S. Navy destroyer USS Mason off the coast of Yemen — for the second time in four days.
"At least one missile" originated from Houthi-controlled territory near the Red Sea port city of al-Hudaydah, Pentagon press secretary Peter Cook said in a statement to NPR's Tom Bowman.
"The ship employed defensive countermeasures, and the missile did not reach the USS Mason," the statement reads. "There was no damage to the ship or its crew." He adds that the ship employed "defensive countermeasures," without elaborating.
Over the weekend, the USS Mason was targeted by two anti-ship missiles launched from Yemen's shore, as Tom reported. It happened as the ship was sailing through a narrow strait between Djibouti and Yemen called Bab al-Mandeb. The highly strategic area is the entrance to the Red Sea, which then links to the Suez Canal — a waterway crucial to global trade.
Yemen's Shiite Houthi rebels, who are backed by Iran, have controlled the capital, Sanaa, since late 2014. A Saudi-led, U.S.-backed coalition supports Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi — Yemen's internationally recognized, exiled leader. The coalition has been launching airstrikes since March 2015, aimed at pushing the rebels back into their northern stronghold.
The missiles fired Sunday "were variants of the so-called Silkworm missile ... a type of coastal defense cruise missile Iran is known to use," as The Associated Press reported.
The war has caused devastating casualties across the country. The U.N. estimates that at least 10,000 people have been killed during the conflict — and as NPR's Jackie Northam reports, nearly half of them are civilians.
It's not clear how the U.S. plans to respond. "Those who threaten our forces should know that U.S. commanders retain the right to defend their ships, and we will respond to this threat at the appropriate time and in the appropriate manner," Cook's statement reads.
As Tom reported, "the Pentagon has declined to say whether it is tracing the attacks and planning a retaliatory strike, but it did say on Tuesday that attackers of U.S. warships did so 'at their peril.' "
This comes as the U.S. is reviewing its involvement in the conflict, following a deadly airstrike at a funeral over the weekend that killed at least 140 people, as Jackie reported. She added:
"Saudi Arabia initially denied any involvement in Saturday's attack, which it called regrettable and painful. The kingdom later said it would launch an investigation, but did not admit responsibility."
Democratic Sen. Chris Murphy of Connecticut described the U.S. role in the conflict to Jackie: "The United States provides the bombs. We provide the refueling planes in midair. We provide the intel."
"I think it's safe to say that this bombing campaign in Yemen could not happen without the United States," he added.


I myself have had my battles with Starbucks. It's a difficult habit to break (though after writing this column, I'm going to give it a try). I can tell you this, though, both from my experience and from that of others: When you break the coffee habit, you will feel your own power and energy and be in touch with your own natural energetic rhythms. You may even find that a caffeine-free existence is a great boost to your weight-loss efforts.
An estimated 85 percent of Americans drink coffee, tea or soft drinks. However sadly, most of them are unaware or simply ignore the fact that there is a downside to caffeine consumption. High doses of caffeine can cause anxiety, dizziness, headache and can also interfere with normal sleep. It has also been said that too much caffeine results in an increase in smoking, especially for young women between 18-22. And of course, it leads to weight gain. Therefore, if you want to maintain good health and are planning to shed a few pounds, it is best to restrict the intake of caffeine in your dieting menu.
And — it's not good for weight loss.
There are two basic reasons coffee is a problem for the person trying to lose weight. (It's no bargain for the person who isn't either, by the way). The first reason is psychological, the second physiological.
Coffee fits neatly into the receptors for a brain chemical known as adenosine, which is partly responsible for calming you down. By interrupting the activity of adenosine, coffee makes you feel awake and wired. You may think that's a good thing, but consider that virtually every study of PMS has implicated caffeine as a major culprit. The added stimulation and nervousness from the coffee makes you feel edgy at exactly the time that feeling calm would be a blessing. such as magnesium, potassium and sodium and uses up a fair amount of vitamin B1. Not only that, the coffee plant itself is a virtual repository for toxins such as pesticides and other harmful chemicals. (If you still insist on drinking it after reading this article, consider buying organic). And it can raise blood pressure and interfere with sleep.
One of the best reasons to give up coffee comes from my colleague, Dr. Barry Sears, who points out that if you are "running on empty," getting your "energy" from artificial stimulants like caffeine, you never really get to understand the effect your food is having on you. You never know whether your food is producing energy and alertness or tiredness and fatigue. You're masking the effects of your eating style with an overpowering stimulant. And that's keeping you from valuable knowledge about what foods work for you and what foods you ought to stay away from.
And when blood sugar levels are high, large amounts of insulin (which regulates your blood sugar levels) are dumped into your blood stream. Now, what can insulin do with the excess glucose (sugar)? The easiest thing for insulin to do is to store it in your body as fat.
What can you do if you cannot simply live without coffee? You can attempt to restrict caffeine if you are dieting. Do not take more than 2 mugs every day. Avoid eating carbs with coffee. You must also exercise for at least 3-4 days every week to burn those extra calories. Regularly walk for at least 30-40 minutes.
Before we build or modify our own diet let's divide the major diets into 4 groups and examine how they feel about coffee. There are other diets and there are diets that fit into multiple categories. This overview is not meant to be complete and is only intended to serve as a starting point to building a coffee-friendly diet.
The low-fat/high-carb diet includes the Pritkin Diet, Dean Orish's diet, and countless others. Because coffee is fat-free, this diet is the most coffee friendly. However one of the reasons fat-free diets sometimes fail is the belief that removing the fat makes one immune to excess calories. A mocha made with fat-free milk may be without fat, but it is loaded with sugars and is calorically dense. If you like the sweeter coffee choices, be aware that although the drink may be fat-free you can jeopardize your diet with too many empty calories.
Most people fail to calculate the amount of fat and calories found in many drinks featured at a coffee shop. They may be packing on the pounds without realizing that their morning double latte is what is causing most of it. They may be paying attention to the foods they eat but many drinks you can get from a coffee shop will have plenty of calories in them.
It is possible to have the best of both worlds though. Since most coffee shops offer plenty of selection you don t have to struggle too much to get something that can meet your needs. As the staff behind the counter what they would recommend if you are having trouble figuring it out on your own.
One of the easiest ways to choose something that is low in fat and low in calories is to simply switch to regular coffee. This may be quite a change if you have been enjoying flavored drinks and cappuccino each morning for quite some time. You don t want to get regular coffee though and then load it up with flavors, creamer, and sugar. That is going to defeat what you are attempting to accomplish.
You will find though that many coffee shops offer delicious premium coffee. It is going to be much better than what you can make on your own at home. They may have some specialty blends they offer as well so you can get some variety. Ask about low fat creamers and sugar substitutes so that you can still have something that tastes good to drink. Very few people enjoy their coffee plain.
There are plenty of options for you so don t get stuck on just one. If you try one type of coffee to cut calories and it doesn t meet your standards, try another one. You may struggle initially because these drinks don t taste as sweet as what you have become accustomed to. However, it a short span of time you will get used to the change and even start to enjoy it.
How many times a day do you order a drink from a coffee shop? You may find you need to cut out a few of those stops each day. It can become quite a habit if you have a coffee shop in walking distance of your home or your office. Even if you are drinking low fat or low calorie drinks, the number of them will certainly add up rapidly.
The size of the cups of your coffee need to be taken into consideration as well. You will notice that most coffee shops offer several sizes for your convenience. Cutting back one size can really make a difference over the course of a week and a month. Some people like to go with the bigger size as it is only a few cents more but do you really need it?
If you aren t sure what all is going into the drinks you order at a coffee shop, take the time to ask. Be respectful though and don t do this during a busy rush time of the day for them. This will affect their ability to serve other customers waiting in line. Going to the coffee shop is very common but make sure you are making good choices there if you are concerned about your weight.


Interested in becoming a hero for wildlife? Looking for a second career? Consider wildlife conservation! There is no job more rewarding, challenging or interesting. Here are some tips and tricks to consider for your job in the field of wildlife conservation. Perhaps it can help you find your dream career? Remember though, It's not just a job, it's a lifestyle!
Whether you pursue formal or informal education, it is important that you are educated, well-rounded, open minded, passionate and enthusiastic about wildlife and conservation. If you have access to formal education, study hard and get good grades. However, it is important to note that a degree alone will not make you a wildlife conservationist. The definition of a wildlife conservationist is a person who advocates or acts for the protection and preservation of wildlife and their habitat. There are many fields that can benefit wildlife – not just scientists! For example, lawyers have won court cases that secured legal protection of wildlife, journalists have uncovered and shared many threats to wildlife, educators teach people about wildlife and law enforcement protects wildlife in the wild! Despite your current or future path, many professions can be tailored toward wildlife conservation.
Wildlife conservationists work with a diversity of species, cultures and in many different environments around the globe. Prepare for this and spend your free time gathering experiences, absorb information you are passionate about, and travel as much as possible. Life experience can become job experience.
Also, it is rare that you will land your "dream job" first. Volunteering or working low paying jobs may be what you need to do in order to have the qualifications required to move forward in your career. The more experience you have, the more desirable you will be for hire. Love reptiles? Work with fish. Love mammals? Take a job with birds. Diversify your skill set and challenge yourself. Sometimes when you work with another taxa, you will learn considerably more by crossing into a new field of study.
There's a saying, "It's not what you know. It's who you know." This can be very true. Wildlife conservation is a competitive field and there are many educated and experienced individuals who are already out there looking for jobs. Therefore, networking is truly key. Travel to conferences, keep in touch with people you meet, attend events, learn people's names, be respectful and be a responsible person to work with. Always be positive, smile, and laugh. It will take you places.
Now that you have those things in mind, it's time to apply for a job! Below is a list of jobs, internships and leadership programs that have been useful for the Save The Snakes Team. Hopefully they can be of use to you. Good luck!
This article was created by Save The Snakes Executive Director Michael Starkey. This list was complied by Michael and colleagues in the field of wildlife conservation. Should we add something to the list? Let us know!


What do you look for in a language textbook? It depends on whether you have a teacher or are going it alone, on the degree to which you have been exposed to the language and on which skills you want to acquire and how you will use them. But it also depends on the language itself. If it is one with a relatively simple verb but a difficult noun, for example, the textbook's coverage should reflect this fact. Agood textbook should alert you to intricacies of communication, such as how politeness is encoded, and to the minute culturally specific differences between synonyms.
All this should be presented in an order conducive to easy digestion, and exemplified with dialogues and texts that are idiomatic and commensurate with the lexico-grammar being treated.
This textbook passes these tests with ease. It should work well as an introduction to the study of Hungarian whether used as the primary textbook in a language course or by an autodidact. What is more, the idiosyncrasies of Hungarian grammar are presented, and vocabulary is sensibly sampled, against a rich background of cultural, historical and political detail.
Each chapter includes "cultural notes", covering topics from how to tell the men's from the ladies' room to short selections from poets such as Endre Ady. Realia, such as photographs of landmarks and tram tickets, are not overused, complementing and setting off the grammar and vocabulary.
Back matter includes appendices with tables of verb and noun inflection, answers to 113 exercises, grammatical and topic indexes, and Hungarian-English and English-Hungarian vocabularies. The accompanying cassettes/CDs are invaluable for a clear idea of pronunciation.
This textbook offers an unusual feature: a continuous narrative, with a cast of characters and the threads of a story of fresh romance and the rekindling of past love. Love is the theme that unites this work, from television listings to the love-stricken males "Mike" and "Mr Newman", each of whom suffers a medical crisis - an occasion to introduce, seamlessly, imperatives and terms for body parts. An infectious love for the Hungarian language and culture, coupled with a sense of humour, suffuses the book.
Daniel Abondolo is senior lecturer in Hungarian studies, School of Slavonic and East European Studies, University College London.

Tunica County Sheriff's Office taking back unwanted prescription drugs October 26 at Sheriff's Office
Tunica, Miss. - On Saturday, October 26, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. the Tunica County Sheriff's Office and the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration will give the public its 18th opportunity in nine years to prevent pill abuse and theft by ridding their homes of potentially dangerous expired, unused and unwanted prescription drugs. Bring your pills for disposal to the Sheriff's Office at 5126 Old Mhoon Landing Road in Tunica, Mississippi 38676. (Sites cannot accept liquids, needles or sharps, only pills or patches.) The service is free and anonymous, no questions asked.
Last fall Americans turned in nearly 469 tons (more than 937,000 pounds) of prescription drugs at nearly 6,300 sites operated by the DEA and almost 5,000 of its state and local law enforcement partners. Overall, in its 17 previous Take Back events, DEA and its partners have taken in more than 11.8 million pounds-approximately 5,900 tons-of pills.
This initiative addresses a vital public safety and public health issue. Medicines that languish in home cabinets are highly susceptible to diversion, misuse and abuse. Rates of prescription drug abuse in the United States are alarmingly high, as are the number of accidental poisonings and overdoses due to these drugs. The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration's National Survey on Drug Use and Health shows year after year that the majority of misused and abused prescription drugs are obtained from family and friends, including someone else's medication being stolen from the home medicine cabinet. In addition, Americans are now advised that their usual methods for disposing of unused medicines-flushing them down the toilet or throwing them in the trash-both pose potential safety and health hazards.

It's OK for troops and veterans to not be OK
'I do think that there are a lot of people that are trying to white-knuckle it right now.'
By Jeff Schogol | Published Sep 4, 2021 9:00 AM

(U.S. Marine Corps photo by Staff Sgt. Victor Mancilla).
At the risk of stating the obvious: Things are awful.
The Taliban's victory in Afghanistan is a true shot to the gut for troops and veterans who have fought there over the past 20 years. The apocalyptic evacuation was especially terrible for the troops in Kabul who spent days with crowds of Afghans trying desperately to get into Hamid Karzai International Airport. In at least one case, an Afghan man handed his baby to a Marine, who lifted the infant over the razor wire to safety.
Add to that the ongoing surge of the Delta variant of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). Hospitals around the country are swamped with COVID-19 patients, leading to an acute shortage of intensive care unit beds. At least one veteran died of a preventable disease because his gallstones could not be treated in time.
To pile on, Hurricane Ida has drowned the Gulf Coast and Mid-Atlantic while wildfires continue to roll through the West like the Romans through Carthage. Climate change has perhaps guaranteed that National Guardsmen will be responding to once-in-a-lifetime natural disasters every week.
And the New York Mets find new and innovative ways to suck, but as a Phillies fan I can cackle with grim satisfaction.

To all service members and veterans who are having a hard time right now: Please don't try to suck it up rather than reaching out for help. There's no reason why you should have to tough out pain. Even the Spartans understood the concept of trauma and sought ways to heal warriors afflicted by it.
This has been a distressing time not just for Afghanistan veterans, but for others who have served in the military during the Global War on Terrorism and other conflicts, said former Army Capt. Meaghan Mobbs, who recently completed her doctorate in clinical psychology at Columbia University.
There has been a marked increase in calls to the Veterans Crisis Line, more veterans are seeking help at Department of Veterans Affairs clinics, and nonprofit groups that help veterans are seeing a surge in demand for care, Mobbs said.
"So, I don't think you have to be there to find it extraordinarily distressing, and I do think that there are a lot of people that are trying to white-knuckle it right now," Mobbs said.
The fact that the U.S. government was not able to evacuate all of the Americans from Afghanistan was a severe blow for troops and veterans, who have been instilled with the belief that the military will never leave anyone behind, she said.

The White House and Pentagon's overly optimistic statements about the situation on the ground in Afghanistan prior to the fall of Kabul also made it difficult for troops and their families to know what to believe, Mobbs said.
Mobbs said she has spoken with the spouses of troops who deployed to Afghanistan, who were not emotionally prepared by military leaders for the potential dangers that the evacuation mission could involve.
"They didn't think there was going to be a threat on the ground," Mobbs said. "That wasn't conveyed to them. Obviously, the situation on the ground could change, but as they were getting activated and coming home to grab their gear and saying goodbye to their families, there wasn't the feeling that they've felt in the past when they've been activated: this is a potentially dangerous situation."
"Maybe the command didn't know," she continued. "That's always a possibility, and so there wasn't the ability to prepare those families. But I think a lot of families were caught very blindsided by the realization that this was as tenuous a situation as it actually was."
The American Psychiatric Association recently announced that it is critical for service members to have access to mental health resources in light of the fall of Afghanistan, which may trigger a wide range of emotions including anger and concerns for those who could not be evacuated in time.

"We also recommend that anyone impacted by these recent events connect with friends and support systems and seek professional help if needed, because talking about a traumatic experience can be very beneficial to mental health," the association announced in an Aug. 25 statement. "When complex feelings are left unaddressed, they can manifest into stress, anxiety and at times more serious mental disorders."
Some symptoms of depression that service members and veterans should look out for include fatigue, having trouble sleeping or sleeping way too much, feeling worthless or guilty, having difficulty concentrating or making decisions, and an increase in hand-wringing, pacing, and other "purposeless physical activity," according to the association.
The Defense Department offers troops, veterans, and family members a range of mental health resources including the Psychological Health Resource Center, which is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week; the Military Crisis Line; and the Real Warriors Campaign.
The Department of Veterans Affairs has also launched Reach Out, a new campaign to let veterans know about how they can get mental healthcare as the 20th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks approaches.
Additionally, Task & Purpose Social Media Editor Kyle Gunn, a Marine veteran who served in Afghanistan, has compiled a list of organizations to help troops and veterans who are struggling, including Military OneSource's peer-to-peer support and confidential specialty consultations.

One of the charities that Kyle listed is Give An Hour, which I can strongly recommend. After my father died, I was a mess. My good friend referred me to Give An Hour, where I was finally able to speak with a social worker who helped me get back on my feet.
I still regularly talk to a therapist, and I can assure you it helps when it feels like the world is ending. I don't know if it's related to Afghanistan at all, but I feel like I haven't been able to do a blessed thing right all week.
On Thursday, I felt as hapless as Abu Hajaar, the imbecilic Islamic State group fighter, whose awful fighting skills were showcased in a 2016 helmet camera video posted by Vice. (He also inspired a meme.)
Just to reiterate: It is not abnormal or atypical to be feeling bad right now. Those who have served in Afghanistan and their families have been wounded by the sudden collapse of the Afghan government and security forces.
There is nothing heroic about suffering in silence. Pain cannot be treated by self medicating with alcohol and pills. Left untreated, depression can destroy marriages, careers, and lives.
