2012.10 - 2012.11	20%	«TimeReg 2»
Antares Gruppen AS (nå i Acando)
Fagansvarlig, prosjektpådriver, ledet team for utviklings- og løsningsarkitektur.

Beskrivelse: Antares' internutvikla applikasjoner for timeregistrering og fakturering mistet driftsstøtte og burde flyttes ut fra egen tjener.

Som fagansvarlig ble Tommy pådriver for å flytte TimeReg til en skybasert plattform i en micro-service basert løsningsarkitektur. Han evaluerte flere skyplattformer og igangsatte spesifikasjons- og arkitekturarbeidet som satte rammene for prosjekter som skulle gjøre dette på en måte som bygde kompetanse internt.
Resulterte i gjennomføring av flere prosjekt der man stegvis flytta den interne applikasjonen ut til flere mindre som kjørte på Heroku PaaS skytjener med REST seg imellom.

Teknologi: Heroku, Java, REST.

Hovedoppgaver og ansvar: Lede arkitekturgruppa og initiere prosjektene.

A rebuttal to my friend Rob Steuteville's recent post.
Pierre L'Enfant created the physical framework for a resilient, dynamic, and sometimes disorienting city—now the hidden celestrial meaning behind the patterns is finally revealed.
New deco mixed-use building in Pasadena broke a community log jam with distinctive and lovable design that responds to its surroundings.
In an area that once suffered in-city freeway blight, this mixed-use housing project creates a beautiful urban streetwall with modern sensibility.
The timeless and artful Plaza La Reina, a new hotel in a transit-oriented Los Angeles neighborhood, shows the impact of a building on a city.
The great Yale lecturer had an impact on movements that are changing the face of communities in the US and beyond.
A bungalow court consists of a series of small, detached structures, providing multiple units arranged to define a shared court—an important community-enhancing space.
With a mix of local stores below apartments that provide "eyes on the square," shade trees, and places to sit, a European-style neighborhood square is a place where everyone belongs.


We've heard it from a bunch of people, and lacking a board showing your stories progression towards completion has always bothered us too. Now, we've got the first version of one live up on the site. To use it, go to one of your iterations and click the "Scrum Board" link on the right. You should see something like the screenshot below.
You can drag stories into columns to set their status. The three buttons in the upper right determine how much of the story to show in the board.
Along with this update, a few other things were pushed out.
When you filter iterations, there's a count of how many stories are found.
Now, you can only drag stories from the edges, this way you can select, copy, and paste text from them easily.
Big iterations should load a lot faster now.
We're properly serving all our static media from a CDN, so it should get to you faster. Should lead to a faster page load.

Армянская филантропическая семинария — образовательное учреждение армянской общины индийского города Калькутта. Старейшая школа города.

История
Армянская филантропическая семинария была учреждена в Калькутте в 1821 году по инициативе Аствацатура Мурадханяна и Мнацакана Варданяна. На сегодняшний день семинария является старейшим образовательным учреждением города, которым руководит иеромонах Армянской Апостольской Церкви Хорен Ованнисян.

2 апреля 2011 года семинария отметила своё 190-летие, в связи с чем там состоялось мероприятие, на котором присутствовали ученики и преподаватели учебного заведения. В ходе этого мероприятия был показан материал об армяно-индийских отношениях, а также презентовано ежегодное издание, где представлены события, которые произошли в жизни армянской общины и семинарии за прошедший год.

Today, 23rd September 2015, thousands of mourners gathered for the funeral of murdered teenager Hadil Salah Hashlamoun. The teenager was brutally gunned down in cold blood by an Israeli soldier at a military check point.
Tensions were high as Hadil's body was taken from Al Hussein Mosque, through the streets of al-Khalil. Thousands paid their respects to the fallen martyr, and joined her final journey as she was taken to her final resting place.
The promising student who had been passing peacefully through a checkpoint early on Tuesday morning is believed to have been shot several times. Eye witnesses state that an Israeli soldier approached her and began shouting at her in Hebrew, which she was unable to understand, it is at this point that she was shot dead.
The teenagers funeral passed off peacefully, as per the wishes of her devastated family. After the funeral, a demonstration was organised later in the day at Bab iz-Zawwiya and attacked by occupying Israeli military firing hundreds of stun-grenades, tear gas and rubber coated steel bullets into the crowd. Several injuries were reported.


+ This is so much less hacky than the old C-style comments!
+ It is helpful to contrast the comment command (which is a proper ircII command) from the #-comment.
+ #-comments are discarded by [[load]] and do not become part of the script when it is run.
+ #-comments __do not__ support multi-line comments (as above), and they end at the end of the line.
+ This means that comment commands are parsed each time they are encountered, which means you don't want to use them inside of aliases (they would slow the alias name).
+ The standard [[load]]er supports C /* */ multi-line comments, but that is for backwards compatability.
+ They should not be used in new code. Use the examples above instead.


State Rep. Luis Arroyo's bill to require sewer-camera inspections is yet another effort to increase the costs to our state residents via wasteful inspections merely to serve a special-interest group, in this case his plumber constituency ("Real estate groups aim to flush sewer-cam bill," March 17).
"This is to protect homeowners," he says. Give me a break! Isn't it enough that I have to pay $150 annually to have a licensed plumber come to my home and spend seven minutes (or less) to tell me my backflow preventer is functioning properly? As a former title closer with over 9,000 real estate closings to my credit, I can tell you that not once have I heard of a closing impeded by a clogged or damaged sewer line. The arguments for such nonsense are as exaggerated as those for backflow preventers.
Instead of adding needless government procedure and costs to everyday activities, shouldn't Arroyo be focused on addressing unfunded pensions, corruption, fraud, waste, nepotism, education deficiencies, crime and other, more virtuous pursuits?
I was very pleased to see Crain's story ("Blue Cross launches new partnerships with Presence Health, Alexian Brothers," March 17). This is a very positive development for residents and businesses that pay the majority of health insurance premiums for their employees.
The "triple aim" of improved health, higher-quality health care and lower costs was the mantra of the Governor's Office of Health Innovation and Transformation, which I directed until recently. This office was established to lead the state government, health care providers and insurers to implement the innovations necessary to achieve these aims. The extremely high cost of health care coupled with challenging health needs of our population is galvanizing attention to how we pay for health care, how it's delivered, and the importance of improving the overall health of people and their communities.
Establishing integrated delivery systems where primary care providers, specialists, hospitals, nursing homes and community providers are all linked through a single coordinated system of care supported by electronic health records that can be shared with approved providers when the information is needed is a critical step toward the triple aim. These coordinated systems are a step toward the integrated delivery goal.
We still have a long way to go to improve our overall health status measured by life expectancy, infant and maternal mortality, immunization rates, chronic disease and ill health, and reducing alarming disparities in health that affect minorities disproportionately, which population and public health measures can accomplish. Improving health and the effectiveness of health care will lower costs responsibly. Actuaries predicted Illinois Medicaid savings in the hundreds of millions of dollars.
Hopefully, the new administration will maintain the momentum of the 80-stakeholder Alliance for Health Innovation Plan, which sought savings through integrated delivery systems, enhanced public health measures, workforce changes, payment reforms, special attention to people with specific needs, and enhanced access to real-time data for clinical decision-making and resource allocation.
Blue Cross, North Shore, Alexian Brothers, Presence and Kane County IPA should be applauded for this important development. This road map can be followed by other insurers so all health care providers are incentivized and held accountable for high-quality, cost-effective care by all payers.
A long journey lies ahead, but this is an important step in the right direction.

The module is aimed at introducing basic design concepts that are associated with simple engineering components and structures. These fundamental calculations form the basis of designs that must be applied to various structural and machine configurations so that they can be able to operate safely and effectively as per the specified requirements.
The module further describes the engineering design process and the criteria that must be followed when applying the fundamental principles of engineering knowledge in the design of standard machine components and structures.
The module forms an elementary part of design, a subject that is critical to practising mechanical engineering. It addresses factors of safety and lays robust foundation for more complex and advanced designs that are covered in subsequent design modules. It provides students with exposure to logical and detailed design analysis and an understanding of solving common technical problems by synthesis.There will be a combination of lectures, that will include interactive elements, and class tests. Tutorials will be based on individual work and assignment will require group work. All outcomes will be assessed by means assignments, class tests and a final examination.

1 Nebuchadnezzar the king to all the peoples, nations, and men of every language that live in all the earth: May your peace abound!
2 It has seemed good to me to declare the signs and wonders which the Most High God has done for me.
3 How great are His signs And how mighty are His wonders! His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom And His dominion is from generation to generation.
4 I, Nebuchadnezzar, was at ease in my house and flourishing in my palace.
5 I saw a dream and it made me fearful; and these fantasies as I lay on my bed and the visions in my mind kept alarming me.
6 So I gave orders to bring into my presence all the wise men of Babylon, that they might make known to me the interpretation of the dream.
7 Then the magicians, the conjurers, the Chaldeans and the diviners came in and I related the dream to them, but they could not make its interpretation known to me.
9 O Belteshazzar, chief of the magicians, since I know that a spirit of the holy gods is in you and no mystery baffles you, tell me the visions of my dream which I have seen, along with its interpretation.
10 Now these were the visions in my mind as I lay on my bed: I was looking, and behold, there was a tree in the midst of the earth and its height was great.
11 The tree grew large and became strong And its height reached to the sky, And it was visible to the end of the whole earth.
12 Its foliage was beautiful and its fruit abundant, And in it was food for all. The beasts of the field found shade under it, And the birds of the sky dwelt in its branches, And all living creatures fed themselves from it.
13 I was looking in the visions in my mind as I lay on my bed, and behold, an angelic watcher, a holy one, descended from heaven.
14 He shouted out and spoke as follows: Chop down the tree and cut off its branches, Strip off its foliage and scatter its fruit; Let the beasts flee from under it And the birds from its branches.
15 Yet leave the stump with its roots in the ground, But with a band of iron and bronze around it In the new grass of the field; And let him be drenched with the dew of heaven, And let him share with the beasts in the grass of the earth.
16 Let his mind be changed from that of a man And let a beast's mind be given to him, And let seven periods of time pass over him.
17 This sentence is by the decree of the angelic watchers And the decision is a command of the holy ones, In order that the living may know That the Most High is ruler over the realm of mankind, And bestows it on whom He wishes And sets over it the lowliest of men."
19 Then Daniel, whose name is Belteshazzar, was appalled for a while as his thoughts alarmed him. The king responded and said, `Belteshazzar, do not let the dream or its interpretation alarm you.' Belteshazzar replied, `My lord, if only the dream applied to those who hate you and its interpretation to your adversaries!
22 it is you, O king; for you have become great and grown strong, and your majesty has become great and reached to the sky and your dominion to the end of the earth.
23 In that the king saw an angelic watcher, a holy one, descending from heaven and saying, Chop down the tree and destroy it; yet leave the stump with its roots in the ground, but with a band of iron and bronze around it in the new grass of the field, and let him be drenched with the dew of heaven, and let him share with the beasts of the field until seven periods of time pass over him,"
25 that you be driven away from mankind and your dwelling place be with the beasts of the field, and you be given grass to eat like cattle and be drenched with the dew of heaven; and seven periods of time will pass over you, until you recognize that the Most High is ruler over the realm of mankind and bestows it on whomever He wishes.
26 And in that it was commanded to leave the stump with the roots of the tree, your kingdom will be assured to you after you recognize that it is Heaven that rules.
1 Now it came about after this that Absalom provided for himself a chariot and horses and fifty men as runners before him.
2 Absalom used to rise early and stand beside the way to the gate; and when any man had a suit to come to the king for judgment, Absalom would call to him and say, From what city are you?" And he would say, Your servant is from one of the tribes of Israel."
3 Then Absalom would say to him, See, your claims are good and right, but no man listens to you on the part of the king."
4 Moreover, Absalom would say, Oh that one would appoint me judge in the land, then every man who has any suit or cause could come to me and I would give him justice."
5 And when a man came near to prostrate himself before him, he would put out his hand and take hold of him and kiss him.
6 In this manner Absalom dealt with all Israel who came to the king for judgment; so Absalom stole away the hearts of the men of Israel.
7 Now it came about at the end of forty years that Absalom said to the king, Please let me go and pay my vow which I have vowed to the LORD, in Hebron.
8 For your servant vowed a vow while I was living at Geshur in Aram, saying, `If the LORD shall indeed bring me back to Jerusalem, then I will serve the LORD.'"
9 The king said to him, Go in peace." So he arose and went to Hebron.
10 But Absalom sent spies throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, As soon as you hear the sound of the trumpet, then you shall say, `Absalom is king in Hebron.'"
11 Then two hundred men went with Absalom from Jerusalem, who were invited and went innocently, and they did not know anything.
12 And Absalom sent for Ahithophel the Gilonite, David's counselor, from his city Giloh, while he was offering the sacrifices. And the conspiracy was strong, for the people increased continually with Absalom.
13 Then a messenger came to David, saying, The hearts of the men of Israel are with Absalom."
14 David said to all his servants who were with him at Jerusalem, Arise and let us flee, for otherwise none of us will escape from Absalom. Go in haste, or he will overtake us quickly and bring down calamity on us and strike the city with the edge of the sword."
15 Then the king's servants said to the king, Behold, your servants are ready to do whatever my lord the king chooses."
16 So the king went out and all his household with him. But the king left ten concubines to keep the house.
17 The king went out and all the people with him, and they stopped at the last house.
18 Now all his servants passed on beside him, all the Cherethites, all the Pelethites and all the Gittites, six hundred men who had come with him from Gath, passed on before the king.
19 Then the king said to Ittai the Gittite, Why will you also go with us? Return and remain with the king, for you are a foreigner and also an exile; return to your own place.
20 You came only yesterday, and shall I today make you wander with us, while I go where I will? Return and take back your brothers; mercy and truth be with you."
21 But Ittai answered the king and said, As the LORD lives, and as my lord the king lives, surely wherever my lord the king may be, whether for death or for life, there also your servant will be."
22 Therefore David said to Ittai, Go and pass over." So Ittai the Gittite passed over with all his men and all the little ones who were with him.
23 While all the country was weeping with a loud voice, all the people passed over. The king also passed over the brook Kidron, and all the people passed over toward the way of the wilderness.
24 Now behold, Zadok also came, and all the Levites with him carrying the ark of the covenant of God. And they set down the ark of God, and Abiathar came up until all the people had finished passing from the city.
25 The king said to Zadok, Return the ark of God to the city. If I find favor in the sight of the LORD, then He will bring me back again and show me both it and His habitation.
26 But if He should say thus, `I have no delight in you,' behold, here I am, let Him do to me as seems good to Him."
27 The king said also to Zadok the priest, Are you not a seer? Return to the city in peace and your two sons with you, your son Ahimaaz and Jonathan the son of Abiathar.
28 See, I am going to wait at the fords of the wilderness until word comes from you to inform me."
29 Therefore Zadok and Abiathar returned the ark of God to Jerusalem and remained there.
30 And David went up the ascent of the Mount of Olives, and wept as he went, and his head was covered and he walked barefoot. Then all the people who were with him each covered his head and went up weeping as they went.
31 Now someone told David, saying, Ahithophel is among the conspirators with Absalom." And David said, O LORD, I pray, make the counsel of Ahithophel foolishness."
32 It happened as David was coming to the summit, where God was worshiped, that behold, Hushai the Archite met him with his coat torn and dust on his head.
33 David said to him, If you pass over with me, then you will be a burden to me.
34 But if you return to the city, and say to Absalom, `I will be your servant, O king; as I have been your father's servant in time past, so I will now be your servant,' then you can thwart the counsel of Ahithophel for me.
35 Are not Zadok and Abiathar the priests with you there? So it shall be that whatever you hear from the king's house, you shall report to Zadok and Abiathar the priests.
36 Behold their two sons are with them there, Ahimaaz, Zadok's son and Jonathan, Abiathar's son; and by them you shall send me everything that you hear."
37 So Hushai, David's friend, came into the city, and Absalom came into Jerusalem.
1 Now when David had passed a little beyond the summit, behold, Ziba the servant of Mephibosheth met him with a couple of saddled donkeys, and on them were two hundred loaves of bread, a hundred clusters of raisins, a hundred summer fruits, and a jug of wine.
2 The king said to Ziba, Why do you have these?" And Ziba said, The donkeys are for the king's household to ride, and the bread and summer fruit for the young men to eat, and the wine, for whoever is faint in the wilderness to drink."
3 Then the king said, And where is your master's son?" And Ziba said to the king, Behold, he is staying in Jerusalem, for he said, `Today the house of Israel will restore the kingdom of my father to me.'"
4 So the king said to Ziba, Behold, all that belongs to Mephibosheth is yours." And Ziba said, I prostrate myself; let me find favor in your sight, O my lord, the king!"
5 When King David came to Bahurim, behold, there came out from there a man of the family of the house of Saul whose name was Shimei, the son of Gera; he came out cursing continually as he came.
6 He threw stones at David and at all the servants of King David; and all the people and all the mighty men were at his right hand and at his left.
7 Thus Shimei said when he cursed, Get out, get out, you man of bloodshed, and worthless fellow!
8 The LORD has returned upon you all the bloodshed of the house of Saul, in whose place you have reigned; and the LORD has given the kingdom into the hand of your son Absalom. And behold, you are taken in your own evil, for you are a man of bloodshed!"
9 Then Abishai the son of Zeruiah said to the king, Why should this dead dog curse my lord the king? Let me go over now and cut off his head."
10 But the king said, What have I to do with you, O sons of Zeruiah? If he curses, and if the LORD has told him, `Curse David,' then who shall say, `Why have you done so?'"
11 Then David said to Abishai and to all his servants, Behold, my son who came out from me seeks my life; how much more now this Benjamite? Let him alone and let him curse, for the LORD has told him.
12 Perhaps the LORD will look on my affliction and return good to me instead of his cursing this day."
13 So David and his men went on the way; and Shimei went along on the hillside parallel with him and as he went he cursed and cast stones and threw dust at him.
14 The king and all the people who were with him arrived weary and he refreshed himself there.
15 Then Absalom and all the people, the men of Israel, entered Jerusalem, and Ahithophel with him.
16 Now it came about when Hushai the Archite, David's friend, came to Absalom, that Hushai said to Absalom, Long live the king! Long live the king!"
17 Absalom said to Hushai, Is this your loyalty to your friend? Why did you not go with your friend?"
18 Then Hushai said to Absalom, No! For whom the LORD, this people, and all the men of Israel have chosen, his I will be, and with him I will remain.
19 Besides, whom should I serve? Should I not serve in the presence of his son? As I have served in your father's presence, so I will be in your presence."
20 Then Absalom said to Ahithophel, Give your advice. What shall we do?"
21 Ahithophel said to Absalom, Go in to your father's concubines, whom he has left to keep the house; then all Israel will hear that you have made yourself odious to your father. The hands of all who are with you will also be strengthened."
22 So they pitched a tent for Absalom on the roof, and Absalom went in to his father's concubines in the sight of all Israel.
23 The advice of Ahithophel, which he gave in those days, was as if one inquired of the word of God; so was all the advice of Ahithophel regarded by both David and Absalom.
1 Furthermore, Ahithophel said to Absalom, Please let me choose 12,000 men that I may arise and pursue David tonight.
3 and I will bring back all the people to you. The return of everyone depends on the man you seek; then all the people will be at peace."
4 So the plan pleased Absalom and all the elders of Israel.
5 Then Absalom said, Now call Hushai the Archite also, and let us hear what he has to say."
6 When Hushai had come to Absalom, Absalom said to him, Ahithophel has spoken thus. Shall we carry out his plan? If not, you speak."
7 So Hushai said to Absalom, This time the advice that Ahithophel has given is not good."
8 Moreover, Hushai said, You know your father and his men, that they are mighty men and they are fierce, like a bear robbed of her cubs in the field. And your father is an expert in warfare, and will not spend the night with the people.
10 And even the one who is valiant, whose heart is like the heart of a lion, will completely lose heart; for all Israel knows that your father is a mighty man and those who are with him are valiant men.
11 But I counsel that all Israel be surely gathered to you, from Dan even to Beersheba, as the sand that is by the sea in abundance, and that you personally go into battle.
12 So we shall come to him in one of the places where he can be found, and we will fall on him as the dew falls on the ground; and of him and of all the men who are with him, not even one will be left.
13 If he withdraws into a city, then all Israel shall bring ropes to that city, and we will drag it into the valley until not even a small stone is found there."
14 Then Absalom and all the men of Israel said, The counsel of Hushai the Archite is better than the counsel of Ahithophel." For the LORD had ordained to thwart the good counsel of Ahithophel, so that the LORD might bring calamity on Absalom.
15 Then Hushai said to Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, This is what Ahithophel counseled Absalom and the elders of Israel, and this is what I have counseled.
16 Now therefore, send quickly and tell David, saying, `Do not spend the night at the fords of the wilderness, but by all means cross over, or else the king and all the people who are with him will be destroyed.'"
17 Now Jonathan and Ahimaaz were staying at En-rogel, and a maidservant would go and tell them, and they would go and tell King David, for they could not be seen entering the city.
18 But a lad did see them and told Absalom; so the two of them departed quickly and came to the house of a man in Bahurim, who had a well in his courtyard, and they went down into it.
19 And the woman took a covering and spread it over the well's mouth and scattered grain on it, so that nothing was known.
20 Then Absalom's servants came to the woman at the house and said, Where are Ahimaaz and Jonathan?" And the woman said to them, They have crossed the brook of water." And when they searched and could not find them, they returned to Jerusalem.
21 It came about after they had departed that they came up out of the well and went and told King David; and they said to David, Arise and cross over the water quickly for thus Ahithophel has counseled against you."
22 Then David and all the people who were with him arose and crossed the Jordan; and by dawn not even one remained who had not crossed the Jordan.
24 Then David came to Mahanaim. And Absalom crossed the Jordan, he and all the men of Israel with him.
25 Absalom set Amasa over the army in place of Joab. Now Amasa was the son of a man whose name was Ithra the Israelite, who went in to Abigail the daughter of Nahash, sister of Zeruiah, Joab's mother.
26 And Israel and Absalom camped in the land of Gilead.
29 honey, curds, sheep, and cheese of the herd, for David and for the people who were with him, to eat; for they said, The people are hungry and weary and thirsty in the wilderness."

A fundamental change to the way people can bank, manage and spend their money in the digital world is under way.A change in the law and the start of the Open Banking system means people can allow businesses, other than their bank, to access their financial data.Organisers say this has the potential for consumers to get better deals, such as cheaper overdrafts, and to speed up the switching process.But warnings over fraud risks have already been issued.As part of the same legislation, surcharges for payments made by credit card, debit card, or other payment systems such as PayPal will be banned.How it worksTraditionally, banks have held all our information about our past transactions and spending habits.A change in UK law now means that banks and building societies must allow regulated businesses access to a customer's financial data, but only if the customer has given their permission. The bank can only block access if it suspects fraud or unauthorised access.The UK's Open Banking system should ensure that such access is given by the UK's nine biggest current account providers in a secure way, and without the need for customers to reveal their online banking login details or passwords.
Analysts and regulators expect consumer behaviour to change steadily over time.Surveys have suggested that most customers are reluctant to give out too much information about themselves.Only firms which are regulated and registered on a directory will be allowed to take part in Open Banking. However, NatWest, one of the banks ordered to be ready for the new system, has warned that fraudsters could mimic these firms to trick people into giving them access to their accounts.Such a fraud could leave consumers at risk of losing their money.New financial service providers are also expected to be targeted by hackers, although they must prove their robustness to regulators.Gareth Shaw, of consumer group Which?, said: "Open banking has the potential to offer consumers more control of their finances and boost choice but it also comes with potential risks around data privacy and security."Regulators and industry must ensure that customers are properly protected from data breaches and scams, which is vital if consumers are to use these services with confidence and trust."If a mistake is made by a regulated service using Open Banking, such as money going missing from an account, then a consumer should be compensated by their bank. If the fault is with a third party, then the bank must make a claim to that business.Card surcharge banThe changes surrounding access to financial data have been introduced as the EU's second payment services directive comes into force in the UK.The same legislation will bring an end to the extra cost added on at the end of the process of buying something online, such as a flight ticket, when using a credit or debit card, or being hit with a surcharge when using a card in a small shop. Card surcharges: Is this finally the end?The Treasury estimates that surcharging cost British consumers a collective £166m in 2015.The legislation also means bank and building society customers will have the right to a free, monthly, paper bank statement.


Both of these generate a lot of log data, like the one in the attached screenshot, so I am wondering if it's ok to turn these off since pfSense is not directly on the Internet?
All traffic is blocked & logged by WAN by default. That setting will also block private networks from accessing any NATs you may have configured. Either ignore the noise. or create your own block rule and set it to not log.
That is multicast noise most likely from your router it self, ie that 192.168.1.1, which seems odd that is being block by the ULA rule fc00::/7 ?
If you do not want the noise, and your behind a nat.. Then either turn off logging of those rules.. Or create rules that specifically block the noise but don't log it.

Infertility means not being able to get pregnant after one year of trying (or six months if a woman is 35 or older). Women who can get pregnant but are unable to stay pregnant may also be infertile. About 10 percent of women (6.1 million) in the United States ages 15-44 have difficulty getting pregnant or staying pregnant, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
CCTs have been more thoroughly evaluated for nutrition outcomes, particularly in Latin American countries. They were associated with improvements in women's knowledge of health and nutrition, as well as their self-esteem, participation in social networks, control over resources, and decision-making power (5, 202). Although intrahousehold allocation for women is not clear, CCTs increased household food expenditure and were associated with improved household dietary diversity, including increased household consumption of animal protein, fruits, and vegetables, and reduced consumption of staples and grains (14, 192, 202). There was also some evidence that household expenditure on fats and sweets also increased significantly (202). However, these findings were not consistent and some evaluations showed no significant increase (14, 202, 203). Despite this, in Mexico, there was evidence that in-kind and cash transfer programs resulted in excess weight gain in women who were not underweight (5, 93). This warrants future research given the burden of overweight and obesity among women.

Popular belief says if you really want to make a big change, focus on one new healthy habit at a time. But Stanford University School of Medicine researchers say working on your diet and fitness simultaneously may put the odds of reaching both goals more in your favor. They followed four groups of people: The first zoned in on their diets before adding exercise months later, the second did the opposite, the third focused on both at once, and the last made no changes. Those who doubled up were most likely to work out 150 minutes a week and get up to nine servings of fruits and veggies daily while keeping their calories from saturated fat at 10 percent or less of their total intake.
As women, many of us are prone to neglecting our own dietary needs. You may feel you're too busy to eat right, used to putting the needs of your family first, or trying to adhere to an extreme diet that leaves you short on vital nutrients and feeling cranky, hungry, and low on energy. Women's specific needs are often neglected by dietary research, too. Studies tend to rely on male subjects whose hormone levels are more stable and predictable, thus sometimes making the results irrelevant or even misleading to women's needs. All this can add up to serious shortfalls in your daily nutrition.
Integrated health care, which integrates curative and preventive interventions, can improve nutrition outcomes for women across the life course through improved access to counseling, vaccinations, and screening and treatment of illnesses (103–107). Access to primary health care positively contributed to the prevention, diagnosis, and management of both communicable and noncommunicable disease (108). Distribution of insecticide-treated bed nets, condoms, screening and testing for disease, and delivery of medical treatments were often associated with integrated health initiatives and improved health and nutrition outcomes (13, 109). Access to health care was associated with the delivery of nutrition-specific interventions to manage pregnancy-induced hypertension, diabetes, pre-eclampsia, and hemorrhage (106, 107, 110). However, some studies showed that integrated services increased knowledge, but did not result in changes in health or nutrition outcomes (103). In addition, in many settings, quality of care was inadequate (107) and incorrect diagnoses and treatments were common (111).
Of the few studies evaluating nutrition education interventions for women and adolescent girls who were overweight and obese, many were "facility-based" and involved delivery platforms such as health clinics (13, 22), worksites (30), and schools (26, 27, 29). Delivery platforms targeting women and adolescents who were undernourished similarly involved facility-based settings (13), but also included community outreach (16, 28), home visits, community kitchens (15, 28), and text messaging platforms (32). Such community-based platforms could provide additional opportunities for the delivery of nutrition education interventions addressing overweight, obesity, and associated noncommunicable disease in the future.
Native to East Asia, soybeans have been a major source of protein for people in Asia for more than 5,000 years. Soybeans are high in protein (more than any other legume) and fiber, low in carbohydrates and are nutrient-dense. Soybeans contain substances called phytoestrogens, which can significantly lower your "bad" LDL cholesterol and raise your "good" HDL cholesterol.
You should eat a healthful, well-balanced diet during pregnancy. However, you should avoid certain foods, including raw or undercooked fish, poultry and meat; raw or partially cooked eggs or foods containing raw eggs; unpasteurized juices; raw sprouts; unpasteurized milk products; and some soft cheeses (cream cheese is OK). Avoid deli meats and frankfurters unless they have been reheated to steaming hot before eating. To prevent food-borne illnesses, take the following precautions:
"Nuts are a great source of protein and monounsaturated fatty acids," says Hincman, as well as much needed vitamin E. Examples of great choices include walnuts, almonds, and hazelnuts. Nuts are also very calorie-dense, however, so you need only a palmful for good nutrition and to feel satisfied — just one-half ounce of nuts is considered equivalent to one ounce of a typical protein choices, like chicken or beef. Hincman suggests extending the volume in a serving of nuts by adding in raisins or dried cranberries.
In addition to death occurring in pregnancy and childbirth, pregnancy can result in many non-fatal health problems including obstetrical fistulae, ectopic pregnancy, preterm labor, gestational diabetes, hyperemesis gravidarum, hypertensive states including preeclampsia, and anemia.[34] Globally, complications of pregnancy vastly outway maternal deaths, with an estimated 9.5 million cases of pregnancy-related illness and 1.4 million near-misses (survival from severe life-threatening complications). Complications of pregnancy may be physical, mental, economic and social. It is estimated that 10–20 million women will develop physical or mental disability every year, resulting from complications of pregnancy or inadequate care.[39] Consequently, international agencies have developed standards for obstetric care.[52]
Nutrition education interventions were often implemented in conjunction with other programs, and it was difficult to identify the effects of nutrition education alone. In addition, many studies reported on one-on-one counseling and group education, and it was not possible to differentiate the impact. The effects of nutrition education were often greater when combined with other resource-based interventions, such as micronutrient supplementation (31, 32), home gardening (28), food supplementation (33), and water provision (22). For nutrition education programs targeting mothers, those who were more educated or of higher socioeconomic status more often translated the intervention to nutritional outcomes (33). This suggests that the effectiveness of nutrition education might relate to individuals' ability to access resources and implement information received.
The mission of Student Health and Counseling Services is to enhance the physical and mental health of students in order to help them achieve academic success, personal development and lifelong wellness by providing an integrated program of quality, accessible, cost sensitive and confidential healthcare services, tailored to their unique and diverse needs and to assist the University community, through consultation and education, to develop a healthy campus environment consistent with UC Davis "Principles of Community".
Fats contain both saturated and unsaturated (monounsaturated and polyunsaturated) fatty acids. Saturated fat raises blood cholesterol more than unsaturated fat, which may even help lower harmful cholesterol. Reducing saturated fat (most comes from meat, dairy and bakery products) to less than seven percent of total daily calories may help you reduce your cholesterol level. Whenever possible, replace saturated fat with monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats.
Some fat is an important part of your diet; fat is part of every cell. It maintains skin and hair; stores and transports fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E and K; keeps you warm; and protects your internal organs. It even helps your mental processes—not surprising given that fat comprises about 60 percent of your brain. But many women consume too much fat. The American Heart Association (AHA) recommends that you keep your total fat intake between 25 and 35 percent of your total calories.
Osteoporosis ranks sixth amongst chronic diseases of women in the United States, with an overall prevalence of 18%, and a much higher rate involving the femur, neck or lumbar spine amongst women (16%) than men (4%), over the age of 50 (Gronowski and Schindler, Table IV).[6][7][128] Osteoporosis is a risk factor for bone fracture and about 20% of senior citizens who sustain a hip fracture die within a year.[6] [129] The gender gap is largely the result of the reduction of estrogen levels in women following the menopause. Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) has been shown to reduce this risk by 25–30%,[130] and was a common reason for prescribing it during the 1980s and 1990s. However the Women's Health Initiative (WHI) study that demonstrated that the risks of HRT outweighed the benefits[131] has since led to a decline in HRT usage.

A healthy vegetarian diet falls within the guidelines offered by the USDA. However, meat, fish and poultry are major sources of iron, zinc and B vitamins, so pay special attention to these nutrients. Vegans (those who eat only plant-based food) may want to consider vitamin and mineral supplements; make sure you consume sufficient quantities of protein, vitamin B12, vitamin D and calcium. You can obtain what you need from non-animal sources. For instance:
"It was a privilege to have taken the course with you. Already, I have used the cueing methods on 2 clients. I have also taken the initiative to ask one of my post-natal client today about her birthing journey and she was so open and excited to share with me. It struck me that usually nobody asks them about it as more attention is focused on the baby."
Women who seek out a women's only club are usually looking for something different. They want the privacy of an all-women environment. They also want the attention they get from women who understand the unique fitness needs of other women and are especially patient and understanding with those who haven't had much experience with fitness in their lives.
It doesn't matter how many pushups you can do in a minute if you're not doing a single one correctly. "There is no point in performing any exercise without proper form," says Stokes, who recommends thinking in terms of progression: Perfect your technique, then later add weight and/or speed. This is especially important if your workout calls for performing "as many reps as possible" during a set amount of time. Choose quality over quantity, and you can stay injury-free.
It's full of health, diet, fitness, and inspiring articles. My first issue was 142 pages of wonderfully educational and motivating articles with clear pictures. It's easy to highlight the articles to read. This magazine is ideal for people that are interested in women's health covering all kinds of topics ranging from nutrition to working out and from meditating to parenting. It also includes ads for the latest in skincare products, makeup, gear, and food, which I like so that I know what to shop for. When I need motivated and inspired or need to refocus, this is the magazine I choose!
Aggressive and early treatment of constipation can prevent painful complications from the condition, including hemorrhoids, anal fissures, ulcerations of the colon, bowel obstruction, and rectal prolapse. Start with lifestyle changes—such as adding more fiber to the diet, drinking enough water, and regular exercise. Used wisely, medications also can be very helpful. (Locked) More »

Last week on Love & Hip Hop Atlanta, Karlie Redd held a ridiculous "friendtervention" and this week, a particular cast member needs an intervention as soon as possible.
In one of the episodes warmer moments, the show opens up with Shawne gathering all of Jessica's "friends" together for a gender reveal party. The only one that wasn't there was Karlie Redd who decided to not to attend because of the fallout from being in Sierra's business.
To fill in her void, Mimi's ex Melissa was on hand just because her hairstyle had her looking like the third member of Kriss Kross.
Anyway, Jessica finally made her way to the party and was greeted by everyone who didn't know she was pregnant. Shawne surprises her by bringing out her mom and dad. Now it's time for the secret everyone knew already, Shawne throws the mini-basketball at the rim, and it explodes in pink dust revealing the couple is expecting a daughter. We are so happy for the couple.

5 An Application of Coupled Media in Acoustic Filters
Acoustic filters are used in many devices such as mufflers, noise control materials (absorptive and reactive), and loudspeaker systems to name a few. Although the waves in simple (single-medium) acoustic filters usually travel in gases such as air and carbon-monoxide (in the case of automobile mufflers) or in materials such as fiberglass, polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) film, or polyethylene (Saran Wrap), there are also filters that couple two or three distinct media together to achieve a desired acoustic response. General information about basic acoustic filter design can be perused at the following wikibook page Acoustic Filter Design & Implementation. The focus of this article will be on acoustic filters that use multilayer air/polymer film-coupled media as its acoustic medium for sound waves to propagate through; concluding with an example of how these filters can be used to detect and extrapolate audio frequency information in high-frequency "carrier" waves that carry an audio signal. However, before getting into these specific type of acoustic filters, we need to briefly discuss how sound waves interact with the medium(media) in which it travels and how these factors can play a role when designing acoustic filters.
Changes in Media Properties Due to Sound Wave Characteristics[edit]
As with any system being designed, the filter response characteristics of an acoustic filter are tailored based on the frequency spectrum of the input signal and the desired output. The input signal may be infrasonic (frequencies below human hearing), sonic (frequencies within human hearing range), or ultrasonic (frequencies above human hearing range). In addition to the frequency content of the input signal, the density, and, thus, the characteristic impedance of the medium (media) being used in the acoustic filter must also be taken into account. In general, the characteristic impedance Z 0 {\displaystyle Z_{0}\,} for a particular medium is expressed as...
Z 0 = ± ρ 0 c {\displaystyle Z_{0}=\pm \rho _{0}c\,} ( P a ⋅ s / m ) {\displaystyle (Pa\cdot s/m)}
{\displaystyle \pm \rho _{0}\,}
= (equilibrium) density of medium
{\displaystyle (kg/m^{3})\,}
{\displaystyle c\,}
= speed of sound in medium
{\displaystyle (m/s)\,}
The characteristic impedance is important because this value simultaneously gives an idea of how fast or slow particles will travel as well as how much mass is "weighting down" the particles in the medium (per unit area or volume) when they are excited by a sound source. The speed in which sound travels in the medium needs to be taken into consideration because this factor can ultimately affect the time response of the filter (i.e. the output of the filter may not radiate or attentuate sound fast or slow enough if not designed properly). The intensity I A {\displaystyle I_{A}\,} of a sound wave is expressed as...
I A = 1 T ∫ 0 T p u d t = ± P 2 2 ρ 0 c {\displaystyle I_{A}={\frac {1}{T}}\int _{0}^{T}pu\quad dt=\pm {\frac {P^{2}}{2\rho _{0}c}}\,} ( W / m 2 ) {\displaystyle (W/m^{2})\,} .
I A {\displaystyle I_{A}\,} is interpreted as the (time-averaged) rate of energy transmission of a sound wave through a unit area normal to the direction of propagation, and this parameter is also an important factor in acoustic filter design because the characteristic properties of the given medium can change relative to intensity of the sound wave traveling through it. In other words, the reaction of the particles (atoms or molecules) that make up the medium will respond differently when the intensity of the sound wave is very high or very small relative to the size of the control area (i.e. dimensions of the filter, in this case). Other properties such as the elasticity and mean propagation velocity (of a sound wave) can change in the acoustic medium as well, but focusing on frequency, impedance, and/or intensity in the design process usually takes care of these other parameters because most of them will inevitably be dependent on the aforementioned properties of the medium.
Why Coupled Acoustic Media in Acoustic Filters?[edit]
In acoustic transducers, media coupling is employed in acoustic transducers to either increase or decrease the impedance of the transducer, and, thus, control the intensity and speed of the signal acting on the transducer while converting the incident wave, or initial excitation sound wave, from one form of energy to another (e.g. converting acoustic energy to electrical energy). Specifically, the impedance of the transducer is augmented by inserting a solid structure (not necessarily rigid) between the transducer and the initial propagation medium (e.g. air). The reflective properties of the inserted medium is exploited to either increase or decrease the intensity and propagation speed of the incident sound wave. It is the ability to alter, and to some extent, control, the impedance of a propagation medium by (periodically) inserting (a) solid structure(s) such as thin, flexible films in the original medium (air) and its ability to concomitantly alter the frequency response of the original medium that makes use of multilayer media in acoustic filters attractive. The reflection factor and transmission factor R ^ {\displaystyle {\hat {R}}\,} and T ^ {\displaystyle {\hat {T}}\,} , respectively, between two media, expressed as...
R ^ = p r e s s u r e o f r e f l e c t e d p o r t i o n o f i n c i d e n t w a v e p r e s s u r e o f i n c i d e n t w a v e = ρ c − Z i n ρ c + Z i n {\displaystyle {\hat {R}}={\frac {pressure\ of\ reflected\ portion\ of\ incident\ wave}{pressure\ of\ incident\ wave}}={\frac {\rho c-Z_{in}}{\rho c+Z_{in}}}\,}
T ^ = p r e s s u r e o f t r a n s m i t t e d p o r t i o n o f i n c i d e n t w a v e p r e s s u r e o f i n c i d e n t w a v e = 1 + R ^ {\displaystyle {\hat {T}}={\frac {pressure\ of\ transmitted\ portion\ of\ incident\ wave}{pressure\ of\ incident\ wave}}=1+{\hat {R}}\,} ,
are the tangible values that tell how much of the incident wave is being reflected from and transmitted through the junction where the media meet. Note that Z i n {\displaystyle Z_{in}\,} is the (total) input impedance seen by the incident sound wave upon just entering an air-solid acoustic media layer. In the case of multiple air-columns as shown in Fig. 2, Z i n {\displaystyle Z_{in}\,} is the aggregate impedance of each air-column layer seen by the incident wave at the input. Below in Fig. 1, a simple illustration explains what happens when an incident sound wave propagating in medium (1) and comes in contact with medium (2) at the junction of the both media (x=0), where the sound waves are represented by vectors.
As mentioned above, an example of three such successive air-solid acoustic media layers is shown in Fig. 2 and the electroacoustic equivalent circuit for Fig. 2 is shown in Fig. 3 where L = ρ s h s {\displaystyle L=\rho _{s}h_{s}\,} = (density of solid material)(thickness of solid material) = unit-area (or volume) mass, Z = ρ c = {\displaystyle Z=\rho c=\,} characteristic acoustic impedance of medium, and β = k = ω / c = {\displaystyle \beta =k=\omega /c=\,} wavenumber. Note that in the case of a multilayer, coupled acoustic medium in an acoustic filter, the impedance of each air-solid section is calculated by using the following general purpose impedance ratio equation (also referred to as transfer matrices)...
Z a Z 0 = ( Z b Z 0 ) + j tan  ( k d ) 1 + j ( Z b Z 0 ) tan  ( k d ) {\displaystyle {\frac {Z_{a}}{Z_{0}}}={\frac {\left({\frac {Z_{b}}{Z_{0}}}\right)+j\ \tan(kd)}{1+j\ \left({\frac {Z_{b}}{Z_{0}}}\right)\tan(kd)}}\,}
where Z b {\displaystyle Z_{b}\,} is the (known) impedance at the edge of the solid of an air-solid layer (on the right) and Z a {\displaystyle Z_{a}\,} is the (unknown) impedance at the edge of the air column of an air-solid layer.
Effects of High-Intensity, Ultrasonic Waves in Acoustic Media in Audio Frequency Spectrum[edit]
When an ultrasonic wave is used as a carrier to transmit audio frequencies, three audio effects are associated with extrapolating the audio frequency information from the carrier wave: (a) beating effects, (b) parametric array effects, and (c) radiation pressure.
Beating occurs when two ultrasonic waves with distinct frequencies f 1 {\displaystyle f_{1}\,} and f 2 {\displaystyle f_{2}\,} propagate in the same direction, resulting in amplitude variations which consequently make the audio signal information go in and out of phase, or "beat", at a frequency of f 1 − f 2 {\displaystyle f_{1}-f_{2}\,} .
Parametric array effects occur when the intensity of an ultrasonic wave is so high in a particular medium that the high displacements of particles (atoms) per wave cycle changes properties of that medium so that it influences parameters like elasticity, density, propagation velocity, etc. in a non-linear fashion. The results of parametric array effects on modulated, high-intensity, ultrasonic waves in a particular medium (or coupled media) is the generation and propagation of audio frequency waves (not necessarily present in the original audio information) that are generated in a manner similar to the nonlinear process of amplitude demodulation commonly inherent in diode circuits (when diodes are forward biased).
Another audio effect that arises from high-intensity ultrasonic beams of sound is a static (DC) pressure called radiation pressure. Radiation pressure is similar to parametric array effects in that amplitude variations in the signal give rise to audible frequencies via amplitude demodulation. However, unlike parametric array effects, radiation pressure fluctuations that generate audible signals from amplitude demodulation can occur due to any low-frequency modulation and not just from pressure fluctuations occurring at the modulation frequency ω M {\displaystyle \omega _{M}\,} or beating frequency f 1 − f 2 {\displaystyle f_{1}-f_{2}\,} .
An Application of Coupled Media in Acoustic Filters[edit]
Figs. 1 - 3 were all from a research paper entitled New Type of Acoustics Filter Using Periodic Polymer Layers for Measuring Audio Signal Components Excited by Amplitude-Modulated High_Intensity Ultrasonic Waves submitted to the Audio Engineering Society (AES) by Minoru Todo, Primary Innovator at Measurement Specialties, Inc., in the October 2005 edition of the AES Journal. Figs. 4 and 5 below, also from this paper, are illustrations of test setups referred to in this paper. Specifically, Fig. 4 is a test setup used to measure the transmission (of an incident ultrasonic sound wave) through the acoustic filter described by Figs. 1 and 2. Fig. 5 is a block diagram of the test setup used for measuring radiation pressure, one of the audio effects mentioned in the previous section. It turns out that out of all of the audio effects mentioned in the previous section that are caused by high-intensity ultrasonic waves propagating in a medium, sound waves produced from radiated pressure are the hardest to detect when microphones and preamplifiers are used in the detection/receiver system. Although nonlinear noise artifacts occur due to overloading of the preamplifier present in the detection/receiver system, the bulk of the nonlinear noise comes from the inherent nonlinear noise properties of microphones. This is true because all microphones, even specialized measurement microphones designed for audio spectrum measurements that have sensitivity well beyond the threshold of hearing, have nonlinearities artifacts that (periodically) increase in magnitude with respect to increase at ultrasonic frequencies. These nonlinearities essentially mask the radiation pressure generated because the magnitude of these nonlinearities are orders of magnitude greater than the radiation pressure. The acoustic (low-pass) filter referred to in this paper was designed in order to filter out the "detrimental" ultrasonic wave that was inducing high nonlinear noise artifacts in the measurement microphones. The high-intensity, ultrasonic wave was producing radiation pressure (which is audible) within the initial acoustic medium (i.e. air). By filtering out the ultrasonic wave, the measurement microphone would only detect the audible radiation pressure that the ultrasonic wave was producing in air. Acoustic filters like these could possibly be used to detect/receive any high-intensity, ultrasonic signal that may carry audio information which may need to be extrapolated with an acceptable level of fidelity.

Facebook is launching a slimmed down version of Messenger for people with budget Android phones
Sam Shead
Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg.
Facebook is launching a slimmed down version of its popular Messenger app for people with Android smartphones in emerging markets.
The chat app, known as Messenger Lite, is aimed at people who possess older and slower phones that aren't capable of running all the latest Messenger features, due to storage limitations or network issues.
The basic app, announced via Facebook's Newsroom on Sunday, is also designed to work well in parts of the world that experience slower internet speeds than those in the US and other developed countries.
"Furthering our goal to empower people all over the world to stay connected, today we're launching a new app called Messenger Lite, a standalone version of Messenger for Android," wrote Tom Mulcahy, Engineering Manager for Messenger Lite, in the news update.
"Messenger Lite is a slimmed down version of Messenger that offers the core features of Messenger for markets with slower than average internet speeds and a prevalence of basic Android smartphones. With Messenger Lite, people are able to quickly and easily send text, photos and links to anyone using Messenger or Messenger Lite."
The Messenger Lite app is less than 10MB meaning "it's fast to install and quick to start up," according to Mulcahy.
Mulcahy added: "It includes Messenger's core experiences such as messaging, sending and receiving photos and links, and receiving stickers. Messenger Lite uses the same bolt logo as Messenger, but with colours reversed. The bolt is blue with a white chat bubble background."
The app is initially being rolled out to in Kenya, Tunisia, Malaysia, Sri Lanka, and Venezuela, with more countries planned for the coming months.
Along with Facebook-owned Whatsapp, Messenger is one of the most widely used chat platforms in the world, boasting over a billion users.

Jose Lima,37,Former Major League Baseball All-Star Pitcher,Dead Today From A Heart Attack…Fans Shocked!!!
Lima was 89-102 in 13 seasons with the Detroit Tigers, Houston Astros, Kansas City Royals, Los Angeles Dodgers and New York Mets.
He was selected to the All-Star Game with Houston in 1999, when he won a career-high 21 games.
In 2004, Jose played for the Los Angeles Dodgers, where the Dominican-born right-hander endeared himself to the L.A. fans when he sang the National Anthem prior to a home game at Dodger Stadium in 2004 and performed with his band at the Dodgers' annual Viva Los Dodgers celebration.
He had recently rejoined the Dodger's organization within the past month, and was preparing to set-up some youth outreach programs for the children of Los Angeles.

From Willful Ignorance through Cognitive Dissonance to "Could I Be Wrong?"
On April 12, 2009 By Jeff FenskeIn Demons in Christians?, Doctrines of Demons?, Lying
From: 1984USA.com
Willful Ignorance, Cognitive Dissonance, & The Kubler-Ross Model
In the diagram above, the decision block labeled "COULD I BE WRONG?" is the kingpin of advancing forward in consciousness and knowledge.
The $64,000 question is "Will somebody ask that question of themselves?"
WILLFULLY IGNORANT: A large consortium of people are, as Biblically mentioned, Willfully Ignorant. They actively exert force and pressure to remain in a condition of being uninformed or unaware, willfully. What is stupefying is that they exert more energy and waste more time to remain in this state than it takes to become informed and aware of what's going on in the first place.
COGNITIVE DISSONANCE: Cognitive dissonance is a psychological state that describes the uncomfortable feeling when a person begins to understand that something the person believes to be true is, in fact, not true. Cognitive dissonance is often associated with the tendency for people to resist information that they don't want to think about, because if they did it would create uncomfort, and perhaps require them to act in ways that depart from their comfortable habits. They usually have at least partial awareness of the information, without having moved to full acceptance of it, and are thus in a state of denial about it. This "irrational inability to incorporate rational information" is perhaps the most common perception of cognitive dissonance.
THE KUBLER-ROSS MODEL: This model was introduced by Elisabeth Kübler-Ross in her 1969 book "On Death and Dying". The stages have become well-known as the "Five Stages of Grief". Kübler-Ross originally applied these stages to any form of catastrophic personal loss (job, income, freedom). They can also be applied to the process of "coming to grip with reality" in accepting devastating truth. Kübler-Ross also claimed these steps do not necessarily come in the order noted below, nor are all steps experienced by all people, though she stated a person will always experience at least two.
The stages are:
1. Denial: "It can't be happening."
2. Anger: "Why me? It's not fair."
3. Bargaining: "Just let me live to see my children graduate."
4. Depression: "I'm so sad, why bother with anything?"
5. Acceptance: "It's going to be OK."
Are You Mentally Ready To Learn The Truth?
If you can't make a conscious effort to overcome your mental programming, you cannot leave the little circle of "those who are fooled all the time."
SPIRAL OF SILENCE: People tend to remain silent when they feel that their views are in the minority — Neumann wondered WHY the GERMANS SUPPORTED WRONG POLITICAL OPINIONS that led to national defeat, humiliation and ruin in the 1930s-1940s
Willful Ignorance: Actively Resisting the Truth and Truth-tellers
WordPower: BEWARE, in the LAST DAYS People Will Be WILLINGLY IGNORANT
Psychologists Explain 911 Denial: Fear, Pride, Exceptionalism… (Why aren't most people willing to even look at what the Bible really says about who goes to heaven — the most important issue?!)
[Willfully ignorant] Dr. Doug Rokke: People won't acknowledge what the US has really done because the foundation for everything they've believed and what they've trusted literally collapses…
Baruch: "Not only is DECEPTION of the church possible, it WAS PROPHESIED TO HAPPEN!" — Jesus said "IN THE LAST DAYS THE MAJORITY WILL BE DECEIVED, take heed that it doesn't happen to you" — "FALSE TEACHERS are actually SPEAKING SPELLS with the words of their FALSE DOCTRINES!"
The Protestant Reformers Were Frauds: By their Fruits You Will Know Them — Martin Luther was a false teacher, a racist, a persecutor and a murderer! John Calvin was a false teacher, a deranged tyrant, a persecutor and a murderer!

The third installment of Website Magazine's immensely popular series on link building tactics and techniques (review the Basic Link Building and Intermediary Link Building Tactics before proceeding) focuses on advanced methods to increase inbound link counts. But the more time you spend promoting your website, the more you find there are not actually any advanced link building methods -- no silver bullets to catapult you to top of search rankings. If you're disappointed, don't be. Consider the realization a major step in your link building education. All is not lost. Don't lose your composure; what we need is to think creatively.
Advanced link building requires you fear nothing (e.g. rebukes from others) and are willing to sacrifice everything (the efficacy of the brand) if they (the advanced methods) don't work out (i.e. penalties) when leveraging available opportunities to build links. That being said, we actually need to go beyond just being creative with link building efforts. We need to completely redefine the link building box we're thinking outside of.
Remember that link building is a moving target, because search engines change their algorithm frequently, that it is a long term process, and there is no silver bullet. Moving forward all the while with traditional link building will yield the best results. As in life, there are no shortcuts – so don't expect them.
However, I've tapped my creative reserve and personal experience to share a few solid ideas you may have never thought of to build links. Some might consider these link building options gray hat (or even black hat, depending), but they do work and that is reason enough to consider them. In the end you'll find that the best, most creative link building efforts have yet to be discovered.
eBay – The Ideal Link Building Platform: eBay is consistently ranked as one of the most highly trafficked sites on the Web. When looking for link partners, we should obviously pursue those with the most traffic, as we know they get indexed quickly and have a lot of traffic. As a result of profiling such high-profile sites, most products (especially those in competitive niches) receive a lot of user attention. The way to use eBay as a link-building platform is to actually have something to sell. (Of course, right?) One idea might be to develop an eBook about some aspect of your business (if you sell baby blankets, an ebook might be "Thirty Great Gift Ideas for New Moms"), and list it for sale on eBay. While you may not generate thousands of sales, you might generate a few, and with a content-rich description complete with links, of course, you will generate exposure for your product and eventually find a few additional inbound links – especially if people really like it. Repeat the process fifty times and you could see how this might influence the SERPs, not to mention others who might purchase your ebook and reference it on their own site.
Become a New Media Socialite: While the links found within comments from Flickr are of the no-follow variety, many believe that even if the links are no-followed, they continue to provide some value to your SEO campaign and in the end, still carry with them the ability to drive traffic. When I suggest becoming a Flickr socialite, what I really mean is to leverage Flickr (and other social media sharing sites like YouTube or any related site that allows commenting) to build an audience while sharing links to your site. You can do that by establishing a group on the network, search for photos or videos related to the keyword and website being optimized, and then let those who have posted photos or video know that you've added their photo to your group by commenting. Linking to your own profile will certainly raise awareness of your group, but take it a step further and develop a landing page on your site for your Flickr group and mask your URL in the invitation you post on other people profiles. It's a roundabout way or generating links, but it works. Find those photos or videos that are semi-popular and you'll receive a great deal of exposure for your comment and in turn for your website.
Remember, these are just two ideas you can use to build links. While some may consider them advanced, others will not. I've intentionally left off the truly black hat techniques like referral spamming and the like, as I honestly believe we reap what we sow. The best course of action in your link-building campaign, as I have said before, is to use the methods you know work, pursue those opportunities relentlessly and get creative with how others will link to you. In the end, advanced link-building techniques are what you make them.


Located just northwest of the Gerudo Tower.
The shrine is hidden and you won't be able to detect it with your Sheikah Slate.
The shrine here is an uncharted shrine, located northwest of the Gerudo Tower. From the tower travel northwest and you'll see a plateau sticking up from the ground. Just to the northwest of that, there is a valley much lower down and there is a pedestal on the ground.
Around the pedestal that are piles of Luminous Stone. Hit the stone with a sword and and collect some of the blue stone. Drop a Luminous Stone and it will open up the entrance to the shrine.
Look to the left and you'll find a series of blocks. Use a bomb to blow them up and head on to the next room. There is a platform that will occasionally pop up, launching whatever is on top of it. Much higher up there is a cage with a crystal switch behind it. Place a bomb on the platform, and it will launch up into the air. Detonate the bomb when it is next to the cage, causing it to hit the switch and open a door in the previous room. Before progressing, check out the area in the back to find a treasure chest that contains a Silver Rupee.
Back in the first room, the door to the next area is now open. There is another similar puzzle here, but this time the platform does not move automatically. Instead, there is a crystal switch behind the large block. Hitting the crystal switch will cause the platform to rise and fall.
Place a spherical bomb by the crystal switch in the back, but do not detonate it yet. Place a square block on the platform in the front. Step away and then detonate the spherical bomb, launching the square block in the air. When it is near the cage, detonate it to hit the crystal switch, opening the door in the previous room.
Run ahead to the next room and you'll see that there are two large catapults, one on each side. Right in between then on the higher platform there is a cage that has a crystal switch. Now this puzzle can be a little odd, is the launching pads are not always consistent.
First you want to put a square bomb onto one of the launching pads and sending it up. The goal is for it to land and stop right within the cage, next to the crystal switch. It might take a few tries, but you'll eventually get it in there. Next you want to put a spherical bomb on the launching pad. This one, due to its roundness will not land in the cage, or at least not most of the time. Instead it will launch over the cage, going back and forth between the two launching pads.
Turn back to where you entered the room and you'll see there are two rectangular platforms. Stand on one of them and then detonate the square bomb, causing the pillars to rise. Then move to the middle area, right by the closed gate. Look back at the puzzle and the spherical bomb is still being passed from launching pad to launching pad. You want to detonate it right when it is above the crystal switch. Doing so will cause the switch to activate, opening up the nearby gate.
Run over and speak with the monk, Sho Dantu. He will reward you with a spirit orb.

Rhea Chakraborty will return to work in 2021, says Filmmaker Rumi Jaffery
Team Udayavani, Jan 2, 2021, 1:22 PM IST
Mumbai: Rhea Chakraborty, who spent almost one month in Mumbai's Byculla jail will make Bollywood comeback in 2021,says director Rumi Jaffery.
In a recent interview, Jaffery said that it has been a traumatic year for Rhea Chakraborty, who was arrested by NCB in a drug case linked to Sushant Singh Rajput's death case.
Jaffery said, " She will get back to work early next year. I met Rhea recently. She was quiet and withdrawn and I can't blame her after what she has gone through. Once the dust settles I am sure Rhea has a lot to say"
"Can you imagine any girl from well-to-do middle-class family spending a month in jail? It has crushed her morale completely," he added. Rumi further said she'll resume work from next year.
Rhea Chakraborty's boyfriend and actor Sushant Singh Rajput was found dead in his Mumbai residence on June 14, 2020. Sushant's family filed a complaint against her and others for abetment to suicide. She was arrested by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) for alleged consumption and possession of drugs. Rhea was granted bail on Oct 7
