What shapes an individual and builds their character is how well an individual is able to cope, what they learn from that experience. I believe the strength of a person and their character is truly seen when you are able to observe first hand how that person is able to grow from an experience whether it is a blessing or a tragedy. The world in its entirety, every single living creature on this earth has undergone some form of tribulation or impediment. They have all had to fight for something, while every incident may not be equally as challenging. Nonetheless, put simply things happen and that's life. I believe that it is the rise after you fall that truly counts because everyone is going to fall at some point or another that is inevitable. If everyone went through life being harsh, bitter, cold people because of bad experiences what would the world be like? Everyone would be unwilling to help one another. We live in an interdependent community; we need each other and depend on one another for survival. My parents instilled in me as a young child to always help if you can. I have always be eager to help anyone in any dilemma if I was capable.
I never knew he existed; he had the most beautiful light brown caramel skin, dark thick wavy hair, and gorgeous big brown eyes with prettier eye lashes than mine. He wore glasses right up to his nose with a strap around the back of his neck to secure them in place when he jumped up and screamed in excitement. This usually happened whenever an iphone was in his hand. His mannerisms were very particular; he never liked to wear socks or shoes and he had a tendency of walking on his tippy toes. His name is Caleb and he is five years old. He is my younger cousin who was recently diagnosed as being Autistic. Caleb was born prematurely, seventeen weeks early. He spent the first five and a half months of his NICU in the NICQ and the first year of his birth consistently in and out of the hospital. He came home on oxygen, unable to fully breathe on his own at that time. He had surgery for NEC that removed over half of his small intestines. He attends a private charter school, in addition to behavioral and speech therapy several times a week. I wondered so many things about Caleb when I first met him. What happened during his mother's pregnancy that caused him to be born so prematurely? Would he ever be normal? What exactly is Autism and what causes someone to be born with this condition? Can Caleb out grow it and will he have a normal life?

Internet Fraudster Bags Six Months + Photo
Justice I. M Sani of the Federal High Court sitting in Port Harcourt, Rivers State has convicted and sentenced Uchenna Samuel Nwosu (a.ka. Jackson Mendez) to six months imprisonment for internet fraud, impersonation and obtaining the sum of $500 (Five Hundred American Dollars) from an American, Carmen Alvarez, under false pretence.
Nwosu was arraigned by the Economic And Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Port Harcourt's Zonal Office on April 11, 2019 on three-count charges bordering on internet fraud, impersonation and obtaining under false pretences contrary to Section 6 of the Advance Fee Fraud and Other Related Offences Act, 2006 and punishable under section 1(3) of the same Act.
One of the count read: "That you UCHENMNA SAMUEL NWOSU (alias Jackson mendez) on or about February 2019, in Port Harcourt, Rivers State within the jurisdiction of this Honourable Court had in your possession (your email address: [email protected]) documents containing false pretence which you knew or ought to know contains false pretence and thereby committed an offence or an attempt to commit an offence contrary to section 6 of the Advance Fee Fraud and Other Related Offences Act 2006 and punishable under section 1 (3) of the same Act".
Nwosu originally pleaded "not guilty" to the charges but later changed his plea to "guilty".
Based on his changed plea, Prosecuting counsel, Barrister Samuel Chime prayed the court to convict him accordingly.
Justice Sani convicted and sentenced him to six months imprisonment on each of the three – count charges. The sentence however runs concurrently. The court also ordered Nwosu to restitute the $500 he collected from his victim. Also, the court ruled that a laptop, Lenovo T410, recovered from him should be forfeited to the Federal Government.
Nwosu's journey to prison began when he was arrested along Liberty Drive, Woji, Port Harcourt, for his involvement in online dating scam. Specifically, he impersonated an American soldier in Syria to defraud Carmen Alvarez, an American lady of $500, being a part-payment of $2,350 he requested from her in an online chat.

"Systematic torture," Sheriff, friends weigh in on West Yellowstone boy's death
Gallatin County Sheriff's Office
James Hurley
By: Cody Boyer - MTN News
BOZEMAN — Three people are behind bars, charged with beating and torturing a 12-year-old boy to death.
12-year-old James Alex Hurley's grandparents, Patricia Batts and James Sasser Jr., are now behind bars at the Gallatin County Detention Center. Hurley's 14-year-old uncle, James Sasser III, is in Billings but also on a $500,000 bond.
Prosecutors said multiple times Thursday morning that they are behind the "systematic torture" that led to Hurley's death.
"I'm devastated," says a woman identifying herself as a past friend of Patricia Batts. "I'm mortified. I'm disgusted to my core."
Charges of deliberate homicide by accountability are what the 12-year-old boy's grandparents, Patricia Batts and James Sasser Jr., now face -- along with his 14-year-old uncle.
Although she wants to remain anonymous, the news rocked one of Batt's close friends.
"Before it was confirmed to me, personally, that it was them, that these were...this was my friend that did this, I couldn't help but go to what this was like for him and how scared he must have been," says the woman.
Torture was a word used more than once by Gallatin County Deputy Attorney Bjorn Boyer.
"I believe the systematic torture and beatings are perpetrated on the victim in this case that led to his death," Boyer said.
The extent of the harm done to Hurley's is part of a series of crimes that Gallatin County Sheriff Brian Gootkin says is the worst he's seen in his career.
"The preliminary report from Doctor Prasher was blunt force trauma to the back of James' head," Gootkin said. "There are rumors flying around that James had committed suicide. That is absolutely not true. There's no evidence to support that. As a matter of fact, we have three people in custody for the exact opposite."
Court documents reveal a horrific timeline. Detectives found Hurley to be covered with injuries, having lived with Batts and Sasser for about two years.
After Hurley's father passed away in 2018, his mother tried to call, with documents showing Batts blocked her from reaching him. Batts' friend says there was a breaking point.
"I knew something was wrong and I encouraged her repeatedly to get him some help and have him put somewhere and she just really expressed that she just did not like him," says the woman.
Investigators found places in the home where large amounts of blood were cleaned with vinegar. Then, they found videos.
"She (Batts) is on a lot of the videos that show the torture to this young boy," Boyer says. "She's in the videos seen strangling the boy."
"I trusted this woman," says the anonymous source. "I've known her since 2008. I'm just reeling. I'm devastated for this little boy."
Batts now is held on a $750,000 bond, while Sasser Jr. is held on $500,000, along with Hurley's uncle. Each could face up to life in prison, something my source says is an answer at a steep cost.
"Everyone involved needs to go...be put somewhere where they can't hurt anybody like this again," says the woman. "I was shocked when she did that. There wasn't any concern. It was like I think she knew because I kept expressing concern for him and him needing help."
James Sasser III is being held now over in Billings and as stated before could face adult charges.
"We don't have a juvenile facility in this county so when we do charge somebody with a juvenile, we have to take them someplace," Gootkin said. "We took him to Billings as of yesterday so he'll be there until his court hearings."
In court, the prosecutor says he kicked James Hurley several times in the head.
Meanwhile, counselors and a crisis team from Gallatin County are being made available for students at West Yellowstone schools, where Hurley attended until Batts and Sasser pulled him from class in September of 2019.
"West Yellowstone is a small community and something like this really rocks it so we just want to make sure that we get everybody the help that they need," Gootkin said. "It's my understanding that CPS was not involved until we got involved and I can't tell you how long this has been happening. That's a part of the investigation."
Sheriff Gootkin says this case is still heavily under investigation, with more revelations likely to come.

View on Wipro Emerald Torch.
It very good in appearances. So far it's power full battery and LED are concerned it will fulfill my requirements as I am cope.
It is not cost effective, simply ok.
Very smaller size than expected one.
Product does not have much quality with respect to this cost (Rs.549). Especially the charging port/pin is too bad(same like Chinese mosquito bat). Other-than that, It is ok.
Q:can it charge by power?
Q:is it ok for agricultural purposes?
A:No. But there are 2 signals. Red & Green. I presume Red is for incomplete, and Green is for charge complete.

Gadamer's Hermeneutics
Altaf Hossain
The Proceedings of the Twenty-First World Congress of Philosophy 11:69-78 (2007)
Hermeneutics, in its phenomenological mode, has become one of the dominating issues in contemporary philosophical discours. Hans-Georg Gadamer, the leading exponent of phenomenological hermeneutics, develops his theory in his monumental work Truth and Method1, by regarding hermeneutics as an exploration of both the archaeology of human understanding and constitutive role of language in experience. In this paper, we have presented a brief exposition of Gadamer's views, giving an emphasis on how human understanding of objects inevitably mingles with its traditions or prejudices. Following Gadamer, we also have offered a systematic account of the role of language upon our overall understanding and building of an impersonal criterion of the truth and meaning of experiences. And finally we have critically examined Habermas* critique of Gadamer's failure to see language as a camouflage of domination of stronger experiences and the fact that the history of understanding is systematically distorted by this domination

Delvon Mattingly completes his master's degree in epidemiology at the end of the summer. He was one of the first graduates of the School of Public Health and Information Sciences bachelor's degree program. An opportunity to take part in the Cancer Education Program (CEP) during the summer of 2016 opened him to new research possibilities. UofL News spoke with Mattingly about that experience and his future plans.
UofL News: How has the CEP program contributed to your goals?
Delvon Mattingly: One of my long-term goals is to obtain a PhD and continue improving public health via research and advocacy. The CEP represented one of my first experiences conducting a real secondary data analysis with the help of brilliant mentors. Prior to enrolling in the CEP, I had limited introductory knowledge of public health and epidemiology through my undergraduate coursework. I graduated with a BS in Public Health from UofL a few weeks before the CEP began. This program exposed me not only to the world of epidemiological research, but also cancer research. The experience helped alleviate my doubts about pursing a graduate degree in a heavily research-oriented discipline.
UofL News: Who was your mentor in the CEP program?
Delvon Mattingly: My CEP mentor was Dr. Richard Baumgartner. I also worked with Dr. Kathy Baumgartner and Dr. Stephanie Boone in the Department of Epidemiology and Population Health at the School of Public Health and Information Sciences. I also would like to acknowledge Dr. Rachel Neal in the Department of Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences, who informed me about the program and encouraged me to apply.
UofL News: When did you decide to pursue the health sciences?
Delvon Mattingly: I've always wanted to pursue a career in a health-related discipline. I grew up witnessing my family, close friends and members of my communities struggle with chronic illness, on top of dealing with socioeconomic disadvantages. I played the aspiring doctor role until I discovered public health, which I didn't know much about at the time.
I often refer to my introduction to public health as serendipitous. The year I moved back to Louisville from attending Western Kentucky University was the same year UofL launched an undergraduate public health program. I decided to give the program a shot, and transferred from WKU to UofL. As it turned out, I fell in love with public health. I was among the program's first graduating class, and I learned a lot from UofL's incredible faculty.
I expect to complete a MS degree in epidemiology at the end of this summer. I'll defend my thesis sometime in the next couple of months.
Delvon Mattingly: I'm attending the University of Michigan this fall for a PhD in Epidemiology. I will conduct research at the Center for Social Epidemiology and Population Health with Dr. Nancy Fleischer as my primary mentor. My research interests focus on social determinants of health and health disparities in vulnerable populations, both in the United States and globally.
I want to conduct research that integrates a multi-faceted approach to understanding health inequalities in populations including racial/ethnic minority groups and the LGBTQ community. The hope is to promote efforts and advocacy toward eliminating these disparities and improving overall population health.
I also have an interest in life course epidemiology, cancer epidemiology and the epidemiology of substance use — including tobacco use. At the moment, I work with the American Heart Association Tobacco Regulatory and Addiction Center (A-TRAC) and Green Heart Louisville.
UofL News: What advice would you give to someone considering UofL's Cancer Education Program?
Delvon Mattingly: I would tell them the CEP is a fulfilling experience and to take advantage of networking opportunities with the many mentors and peers with similar research interests. Although I went into the program with no background in cancer research experience, it is a great way to get your foot in the door. Every participating student works on a variety of cancer-related research projects with different mentors. It was fascinating to see my peers' completed research projects at the undergraduate symposium and Research!Louisville events.

1918 Court: Wife unlawfully sells husband's furniture
Published: 12:30 Saturday 01 September 2018
At the Scarborough County Court, Tom Kidd, 9, Stephenson's Buildings, High Street, Bridlington, a private in the Army Veterinary Corps, claimed £100 from Albert Edward Harland and Sons, auctioneers, Scarborough. Plaintiff alleged that in or about the month of July, 1917, the defendant was in possession of his household furniture at No.5, Spring Bank, and that when in January, 1918, he demanded their return, defendant refused to deliver them up, stating that he had sold them by auction several months previously.
Mr WJ Stuart appeared for plaintiff and Mr JB Black for the defendant.
Mr Stuart said the plaintiff's case was that defendant bought the furniture from plaintiff's wife and then subsequently sold it on his own behalf. Plaintiff's case was that his wife had no authority to sell. The facts of the case were, to a certain extent, of a very distressing nature. Plaintiff joined the Army in November, 1914, and lived at Bridlington in North View Terrace. Up to that time the relations between Mr and Mrs Kidd were perfectly happy in every respect. Plaintiff went out in Egypt, Salonica, and Palestine until January, 1918, when, owing to certain facts which came to his knowledge of a domestic character he got special leave and came to make enquiries. Since he came home he had been in hospital suffering from malaria.
His Honour: When did he come home?
Mr Stuart: He came home in January of last year. Up to about May, 1917, there was regular correspondence between husband and wife, but after May, 1917, Mrs Kidd did not hear anything for some months. As a matter of fact plaintiff had been in hospital and he thought that letters had probably miscarried. Subsequently, later in the summer, he got a letter from his wife asking for his forgiveness. He did not know why she wanted it, and this was the first intimation that plaintiff had that anything was wrong. Plaintiff found out that his wife had removed from 3, North View Terrace, to another house in Bridlington, in Nelson Street. While there Mrs Kidd got under the influence of another man, who was a stranger to Bridlington. He reported himself as a discharged soldier and got Mrs Kidd's sympathy in that way. At all events about July, 1917, he persuaded Mrs Kidd to leave Bridlington and come to Scarborough. Mrs Kidd came over to Scarborough about that time and made enquiries about a house and got into communication with the defendant with respect to a house. She gave the name of Mrs Rodwell this being the name of the man he had referred to. Mr Harland ultimately intimated that she could have the house No.5, Spring Bank, Scarborough, and the household furniture was removed from Bridlington there. After they had been in Scarborough about a week Rodwell persuaded Mrs Kidd to sell the furniture and Mr Harland bought it for £50. The money was made payable by cheque made payable to "Mrs Rodwell". Mrs Kidd gave Rodwell £40 of it and kept £10 for herself. Rodwell then left for the West Riding and promised to let Mrs Kidd have his address, which he whenever did. Plaintiff, before he went into the army was in the employ of Mr Major Wilson, auctioneer, of Bridlington, and he bought the furniture gradually at sales. He said that it would be impossible to replace the furniture for £100.
Mr Stuart then read correspondence, and submitted that it was quite clear that however innocent Mr Harland might be Mrs Kidd had no authority to dispose of this furniture, and therefore Mr Harland must return the furniture or compensate the plaintiff for the deprivation of it. Defendant's good faith had nothing to do with it. It was a question whether he had got a title to it.
In reply to His Honour, Mr Black said the defendant said that all the facts had not been revealed in the statement.
Evidence was then called in support of Mr Stuart's statement. Plaintiff, in cross-examination, said he did not know that his wife had any furniture at all. She had none when he went into the army,
Mr Purdon, auctioneer, Bridlington, gave expert evidence with regard to the value of the furniture.
Mrs Kidd was called, and on remark by Mr Black that there might be proceedings elsewhere, his Honour warned her that she need not answer questions which might incriminate her in a charge of theft.
Mrs Kidd, in giving evidence, said all the furniture belonged to her husband and she had no authority from him to sell it. She changed some of the furniture with Mr Wentworth when she went from North View Terrace to Nelson Street.
Cross-examined by Mr Black: She told Mr Harland that Mr Rodwell was working in the Army Canteen Stores, and that they were going to stay for some months. It was Rodwell who said that the furniture was witness's and she did not deny it. She signed a receipt and declaration which stated that the goods were her own property.
Mr Harland was ordered to pay £85 and costs.

So a few days have past and today I finally got on the bike fully set up.
Last night with Warren's direction :) I installed the forks from HenryDorsetCase. Some mucking about making tools, and then breaking tools ended the night with the forks on, but I wasn't 100% happy that everything was torqued up properly.
Also, after some discussion with Warren, I discovered I didn't have the necessary tools to install the rear shock.
So I made the decision to ride carefully into town in the morning, and get assistance.
So this morning I dropped the hornet and the ohlins shock into Honda Hamilton.
I did a quick flick over the divi just to see if there was a big difference or not.

Q: Aggregate strings in descending order in a PostgreSQL query In addition to the question How to concatenate strings of a string field in a PostgreSQL 'group by' query?
How can I sort employee in descending order?
I am using PostgreSQL 8.4 which doesn't support string_agg(). I've tried to use the following, but it isn't supported:
array_to_string(array_agg(employee ORDER BY employee DESC), ',')

I'd appreciate any hint to the right answer.

A: In PostgreSQL 9.0 or later you can order elements inside aggregate functions:
SELECT company_id, string_agg(employee, ', ' ORDER BY company_id DESC)::text
FROM   tbl
GROUP  BY 1;

Neither string_agg() nor that ORDER BY are available for PostgreSQL 8.4. You have to pre-order values to be aggregated. Use a subselect or CTE (pg 8.4+) for that:
SELECT company_id, array_to_string(array_agg(employee), ', ')
FROM  (SELECT * FROM tbl ORDER BY company_id, employee DESC) x
GROUP  BY 1;

I order by company_id in addition as that should speed up the subsequent aggregation.
Less elegant, but faster. (Still true for Postgres 14.)
See:

*Concatenate multiple result rows of one column into one, group by another column

*Alternatives to array_agg()?

Lead Story
Pesticide, the last resort
V. SRIDHAR
Published : Jul 02, 2004 00:00 IST
Name: Reddy Ranga Rao Age: 45 Village: Velpuru Mandal: Thanaku District: West Godavari Date of death: May 23, 2004
REDDY RANGA RAO was an agricultural worker until about seven years ago, when he started leasing land and became a "cultivator". He still had no land, but at least he had others working for him on land in Velpuru, in the heart of the Green Revolution region. The village appears prosperous. Some of the houses are palatial. Bullock-drawn ploughs are passe here. But Reddy Ranga Rao committed suicide on May 23 by consuming pesticide.
Reddy Ranga Rao started cultivation by growing paddy. Two years later he attempted to grow sugarcane. He suffered severe losses as rodents destroyed the entire crop. His wife, Ramalakshmi (40), said that the failure of the crop was disastrous because sugarcane needed more investment than paddy. "The loss we suffered then continues to burden us now in the form of outstanding loans," she said.
Although he shifted back to paddy cultivation, he never recovered from the setback, which led to mounting debts. Ramalakshmi said the last rabi season yielded only 15 bags of paddy, compared to the normal yield of 25 bags an acre (each bag of 75 kg). The rent for the land was 30 bags an acre (for two seasons). Ramalakshmi said that the decline in output was mainly because Reddy Ranga Rao could not buy pesticides and fertilizers in adequate quantity and at the appropriate time. Reddy Ranga Rao not only had to contend with a poor crop but also had to manage the daunting task of procuring paddy to pay the rent.
Both husband and wife were agricultural workers before they were married. "We took the lease only because we thought that cultivation would be better than agricultural work," said Ramalakshmi. Moreover, the fact that very little employment was available during the rainy season prompted them to lease the land from an influential family in Thanaku, which owns a rice mill in the town. A middleman in the village fixed the "deal". Ramalakshmi said the landlord lent money for inputs such as seeds, pesticides and fertilizers. The family also used to borrow from moneylenders.
Ramalakshmi said the family never really recovered from the "sugarcane shock" it received five years ago. Reddy Ranga Rao borrowed Rs.50,000 before the last kharif season. Part of the money was meant to repay existing debts and the remaining was to be invested in the crop. Part of the Rs.50,000 came from the rice mill owner, but substantial amounts were also drawn from an "iron shop" owner and a worker who had headed for Singapore. The interest on the loans was 24 per cent. At the time of his death Reddy Ranga Rao owed Rs.15,000 to the rice miller, about Rs.60,000 to various moneylenders, and 60 bags of paddy to the landlord.
The landlord cancelled the lease after his death. Reddy Ranga Rao used to work as a servant in a landlord's house when he was a boy of about 15. He was paid about 25 bags of paddy annually as wages. He performed various tasks for the landlord, which included grazing cattle and doing household work. His wife said that he "managed' to quit this work and became an agricultural worker. "Life as an agricultural worker did not seem risk-laden when we leased land for cultivation," said Ramalakshmi.
Ten days before he committed suicide, Reddy Ranga Rao told his wife that "he had no hope of a good crop". On May 19 he returned home late, sat on the cot, played with his nine-month-old granddaughter and then complained of uneasiness. He was taken to a private hospital in Thanaku and, after three days there, was taken to the government hospital.
Reddy Ranga Rao died on May 23. The Mandal Revenue Officer visited the family on May 23 and the Joint Collector the following day. Ramalakshmi said they expressed their sympathies but did not promise anything. But the moneylenders came immediately after his death and asked for the repayment of loans. She promised them that she would pay them if she received any assistance from the government. Significantly, Ramalakshmi said that the frequency of the visits by the moneylenders had come down noticeably in the weeks before the elections. But she said the visits became more frequent after the elections, although they were not unduly aggressive. Ramalakshmi said that she did not know whether the moneylenders came more often after the elections because they feared that the new government would waive the loans of farmers. She said: "I do not know tenancy laws, but I wish there is some way out of the mooza vani kowlu system (oral tenancy, one in which the tenant has no registered rights to the land that he/she is cultivating)."

I have several articles that talk about how to watch movie online, Hulu, BBC iPlayer they offer the best quality movies, but they lack choice, only a few movies available. If you are not lived in US, UK these two countries you have to do some special ways to watch them. On internet, we have many ways to watch movie even new one, but it depends on where the source come from, some quality are good, some are bad.
Today, I would like to tell you about a website that lets you watch movie for free. Cuevana is a website that based on Argentina, the main language is Spanish, also can switch to English. It offers a Firefox add-on that allows you to stream videos from several file hosting services, like Megavideo, Hotfile, File Factory. Before you watch movie you have installed a Firefox add-on "Cuevana Stream", after that, restart Firefox you can go to Cuevana, choose a movie that you want to watch. Choose a file hosting service, it will automatically load a media player, some file hosting site require waiting time and more clicks.
If you have high speed internet accessing, the streaming seems very stable, you can watch whole movie without interrupt. By the way, Cuevana also lets you watch TV show, and live TV program that comes from South American countries.

Wall Fund Amputee Vet Tells Iraq War Story, 'Thankful For Everything' – WATCH
January 9, 2019 Jeff Rainforth Jeff Rainforth, News, Video 0
On September 11, 2004, three years to the day after the 9/11 terror attacks, a 107mm rocket screamed out of the sky and changed Senior Airman Kolfage's life forever. Kolfage was at Balad Air Base, Iraq on his second deployment when he woke up after working a night shift. He left his barracks to get some water, and as he was walking, the base came under attack. The first rocket landed 3 feet from Airman Kolfage. There was a deafening roar, and in an instant, both of Kolfage's legs & his right hand were gone.
Kolfage joined the Air Force after the September 11th, 2001 attacks on America that took almost 3000 lives. He wanted to serve so that an attack like that would never happen again. Kolfage was originally stationed at Camp Arifjan, Kuwait. When the call came for 13 Airmen to go to Balad, Iraq, 350 volunteered. Brian wasn't chosen. Kolfage desperately wanted to get in the fight, so he jokingly told one of the newer men on his base who was selected that he would probably get hit by a rocket & lose his legs. The guy had a kid back home so he changed his mind & Brian took his place. Two weeks later, Kolfage would be hit by the rocket.

The Daily Caller caught up to Brian for an interview. Kolfage explains what happened that fateful day, and how he never let it get him down.
Via Daily Caller:
"The Purple Heart recipient who started the GoFundMe page to fund President Donald Trump's border wall shared his story with The Daily Caller.
Brian Kolfage, a U.S. Air Force Security Forces senior airman, talked about his life-changing injury that occurred when his airbase fell under rocket attack while he was deployed in Iraq in 2004.
RELATED: Triple-Amputee Vet Just Issued Statement On Wall Fund – It's Happening!
Kolfage lost an arm and two legs, but hasn't let his injuries get in the way of his life – so much so, you can catch him snowboarding, scuba diving, water skiing and now raising money for Trump's border wall."
To get an idea what it's like to have a 107mm rocket explode near you, here's a short video. In the video, you can hear warning sirens before the rocket lands. When the rocket landed near Kolfage, there was no warning.
In an interview with Warrior SOS, Kolfage explained how his injuries changed his life, and how he didn't let it get him down:
"Before my injuries I was a little arrogant, and cocky sometimes. If you would have told me I was going to lose my legs and hand the next day I would have told you that I'd rather be dead, and swore by it! But once it happened my body went into survival mode, and I had no control. My entire way of thinking changed instantly, and I didn't care. In fact, when I was laying on the ground bleeding to death I told my friend Cortez that "I knew my legs are gone. I don't care. Just get me home. . . ."
All my family was pretty shocked, as you could imagine. The Air Force sent chaplains, the whole nine yards. They were preparing for my death, and none of the docs were too optimistic.
On September 11, 2004, one thing didn't go my way that day. But a million other things did. My life is great. I have a beautiful wife, family, dogs, bought a house on my own, finish my degree in architecture next year, what couldn't be good about this?"
I've known Kolfage for several years and worked with him on a few of his projects. Not once has he felt sorry for himself, or wanted pity. He's one of the most outgoing, positive people I know, despite losing his legs & arm. He's a hard charger who when he sets his mind to do something, he does it. There is no "fail" with him. There is only "overcome & succeed." He's a true inspiration to veterans, and millions of Americans.
Here's Brian's "Alive Day" video. "Alive Days" are where wounded veterans & others celebrate cheating death. This is a must watch if you've never seen it. If you don't tear up, there might be something wrong with you.

Who is the biggest rock-star in comics history? Jim Lee? Are you kidding me? Stan Lee? Influential, yes, but there's nothing rock about him! Rob Liefeld? Hell no! I've included his name purely for laffos! Jack Kirby? Look, Jack Kirby is awesome but he's not ROCK. (He's the King of Comics). Folks, the biggest rockstar in comics is absolutely, 100% Kevin Eastman.
Back in 1984 he co-created the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (with buddy Peter Laird), was able to turn a self-published, black and white, funny animal book into a squazillion dollar empire, he married and divorced a Penthouse Pet of the Year, became totally badass (see picture) (he also has crazy tattoos along his forearms which grant him demon flight), and he became the publisher and editor of the world's most bitchin' dark fantasy/science-fiction/erotica magazine: Heavy Metal.
Worship with me at his altar, after the jump! (NSFW for barely-clothed, booby fantasy art).
Let me tell you about how I was first exposed to Heavy Metal magazine. It was the heady year of 1994 and I was all about comics. I was drawing comics (I even had a briefly published comics) and I wanted to be a rockstar just like Kevin Eastman. My whole life was comics. And I had one of those like-minded friends (like I'm sure we've all had) who was a better artist than me, had better taste than me, and exposed me to most of the comics I grew to love. (He also introduced me to punk!). And he made me feel like if I wasn't buying and reading Heavy Metal then I was not only missing out, but didn't know shit about comics.
And he was right, to an extent, because it certainly broadened my exposure to a whole heap of magnificent artists that I'd never even heard of in my very narrow comics world. And not just American artists, but a whole slew of European artists as well. I discovered Serpieri, Manara, Suydam, Royo, Altuna - I could go on forever. The writing wasn't always great, but the art was beautiful and the stories were unique. And there were a lot of boobs. Seriously. Like a billion boobs. Even the boobs had boobs. And they'd insert speech bubbles (containing moans) over the really filthy bits.
I only read it for a year or two, and then I kind of balked at the highish prices. But I should totally get back into it now. Because Heavy Metal (and, of course, Kevin Eastman), totally rock!
So to celebrate Metal Monday how about we take a quick look at some of the crazy covers over the years. These are all nabbed from the hard-working folks at the Heavy Metal Magazine Fan Page who have fastidiously collected a complete run of covers and contents for every single issue ever released. Check them out for more info on the world's best armoured-tits magazine. And check out Kevin Eastman Studios too because the legend himself is taking commissions! I am seriously considering shelling out (guffaw) for a kickass Rapheal!
Boobs? Check. Midgets? Check. Mechanical pterodactyl? Absolutely! This cover was Zack Synder before Zack Snyder was Zack Synder!
This cover showcases Serpieri's brilliantly detailed, sexy, hard-sci-fi series Druuna. It was partly serialised in Heavy Metal but the full works is about eight albums worth (and uncensored). I actually tracked it down and bought it a couple of years ago because it was by far the best thing I read in these pages. If you google image search "Druuna" you will probably explode!
This combines the best of both worlds! A brilliant idea. Unless you attack her right-side.
Padme Amidala has never looked better!
This is a travel brochure for Hell.
Somebody gets to panel-beat the nipples.
And this is the current issue, which sends the clear message that not much has changed since 1994 and I can probably jump back on board without missing a beat. Guffaw.
Wasn't Robert Rodriguez talking about gathering cult directors to make another multi-story Heavy Metal movie? Holy crap that would be cool!
Bless you Kevin Eastman!

I used to (and still do) hate comics that have gorgeously painted covers, and then traditional ink and digital colour interiors. Superhero comics sometime do this, as does most of the Vertigo range. It always felt like they were saying "the cover is what the book is supposed to look like, but we can't afford to produce it like that, so here's some crappy drawings and you can imagine the rest".
Heavy Metal always blew me away because the interiors were just as lush as the wrapping. And you know, the boobies and things.

Одіон Ігало (,  19 червня 1989, Лагос) — нігерійський футболіст, нападник клубу «Аль-Шабаб».

Клубна кар'єра
Вихованець футбольної школи клубу «Прайм». Звідти 2006 року він перейшов в «Юліус Бергер», в якому провів 10 матчів і забив 5 голів у Прем'єр-лізі Нігерії.

Влітку 2007 року футболіст перейшов у норвезьку команду «Люн». 16 вересня 2007 року він дебютував у складі «Люна» в матчі чемпіонату Норвегії з «Вікінгом». Гра завершилась поразкою команди Ігало 2:3, при цьому нігерієць забив один з м'ячів своєї команди. Всього Одіон провів у норвезькому клубі 10 місяців, провівши 20 ігор і забивши 9 голів у чемпіонаті.

30 червня 2008 року Ігало був куплений італійським «Удінезе», що заплатив за трансфер форварда 1,9 млн. євро. Одіон вперше вийшов у складі «Удіне» 25 січня 2009 року в матчі проти «Палермо»; в тому ж сезоні, 31 травня, він забив свій перший і єдиний м'яч за клуб, вразивши ворота «Кальярі».

Не пробившись до основи «зебр», 24 серпня 2009 року Ігало разом з низкою інших гравців був відданий в оренду в іспанську «Гранаду», що виступала в Сегунді Б. Тут Одіон за сезон забив 16 голів у 26 матчах, ставши найкращим бомбардиром клубу, і допоміг команді зайняти перше місце та вийти до Сегунди.

Влітку 2010 року Одіон на правах оренди перейшов в італійську «Чезену». 17 жовтня він дебютував у складі команди в матчі серії А проти «Парми» (1:1), проте знову в Італії закріпитись не зумів, зігравши до кінця року лише 3 матчі в чемпіонаті і 1 в національному кубку.

Через це вже на початку 2011 року гравця знову відправили в оренду до «Гранади», якій він в тому ж сезоні допоміг вперше за останні 35 років повернутись до Ла Ліги, де і виступав з командою до літа 2014 року.

29 липня 2014 року Ігало був орендований на сезон англійським «Вотфордом», який вже 24 жовтня повністю викупив контракт гравця. Всього за сезон 2014/15 він забив 20 голів у 35 матчах і допоміг команді зайняти друге місце у Чемпіоншипі та вийти до Прем'єр-ліги. У першому сезоні у елітному англійському дивізіоні з клубом з Вотфорда він забив 15 голів у 37 матчах і став найкращим бомбардиром команди, а у грудні 2015 року Ігало був визнаний гравцем місяця англійської Прем'єр-ліги.

12 серпня 2016 року Ігало підписав новий п'ятирічний контракт з клубом, але наступного сезону він забив тільки один гол у 18 матчах чемпіонату, через що 31 січня 2017 року нігерієць був проданий клуб китайської Суперліги «Чанчунь Ятай» за 20 мільйонів фунтів стерлінгів. За два сезони відіграв за чанчунську команду 55 матчів в національному чемпіонаті, забивши 36 голів, але за підсумками сезону 2018 року його команда покинула Суперлігу. 14 лютого 2019 року перейшов в «Шанхай Шеньхуа», де провів наступний сезон і став володарем Кубка Китаю.

31 січня 2020 року Ігало повернувся до англійської Прем'єр-ліги, приєднавшись до «Манчестер Юнайтед» на правах оренди до кінця сезону. Тим самим він став першим нігерійським гравцем і лише сьомим африканцем, який приєднався до клубу. Після того, як цей крок був підтверджений, Ігало заявив, що він погодився на зниження зарплати, щоб цей трансфер відбувся, назвавши це «мрією» приєднатися до клубу, який він довго підтримував. Одіон вирішив грати за «червоних дияволів» під номером 25, який раніше носив перший і найдовший за тривалістю виступів африканський футболіст «Манчестер Юнайтед», Квінтон Форчун. Однак присутність Іггало у першій команді на перших порах була заблокована, як запобіжний захід через побоювання щодо китайського коронавірусу. В результаті за «Юнайтед» нігерієць дебютував 17 лютого в матчі Прем'єр-ліги проти «Челсі» (2:0), вийшовши на заміну на 90 хвилині замість Антоні Марсьяля. Таким чином Ігало став першим нігерійцем, який зіграв за МЮ.

26 січня 2021 року Ігало опублікував прощальне повідомлення в соціальних мережах напередодні свого неминучого від'їзду з Манчестер Юнайтед наприкінці місяця. "Манчестер Юнайтед" підтвердив від'їзд Ігало наступного дня.

Виступи за збірні
2009 року залучався до складу молодіжної збірної Нігерії, разом з якою був учасником молодіжного чемпіонату світу в Єгипті, де нігерійці дійшли до 1/8 фіналу. Всього на молодіжному рівні зіграв у 3 офіційних матчах.

25 березня 2015 року дебютував в офіційних матчах у складі національної збірної Нігерії в товариській грі проти збірної Уганди (0:1).

У складі збірної був учасником чемпіонату світу 2018 року у Росії.

Ігало забив сім голів у кваліфікаційній кампанії Кубка африканських націй 2019 року, найбільше за будь-якого іншого гравця відбору, і допомогти Нігерії пройти до фінального турніру. Влітку 2019 року Одіон був викликаний до складу своєї національної збірної на Кубок африканських націй в Єгипті, де теж був основним нападником і зіграв в усіх матчах своєї команди. У першому матчі проти Бурунді він забив гол, а його команда перемогла 1:0. У матчі 1/8 фіналу проти Камеруну забив два м'ячі на 19-й і 63-й хвилинах, а його збірна перемогла 3:2 і вийшла до чвертьфіналу. У півфінальному матчі проти Алжиру на 72-й хвилині відзначився голом з пенальті, проте його команда поступилася 1:2 і позбулася права виступати у фіналі. Тим не менш команді вдалося обіграти Туніс (1:0) у матчі за 3-тє місце та здобути бронзові нагороди. Після цієї гри Ігало оголосив про завершення кар'єри у збірній. Всього провів у формі головної команди країни 35 матчів, забивши 16 голи.

Making is Connecting David Gauntlett DIY, media, book, textile
In Making is Connecting, David Gauntlett argues that through making things, people engage with the world and create connections with each other. Both online and offline, we see that people want to make their mark on the world, and to make connections. During the previous century, the production of culture became dominated by professional elite producers. But today, a vast array of people are making and sharing their own ideas, videos, and other creative material online, as well as engaging in real-world crafts, art projects, and hands-on experiences. Gauntlett argues that we are seeing a shift from a 'sit-back-and-be-told culture' to a 'making-and-doing culture'. People are rejecting traditional teaching and television, and making their own learning and entertainment instead. Drawing on evidence from psychology, politics, philosophy, and economics, he shows how this shift is necessary and essential for the happiness and survival of modern societies.

Pitti Immagine Filati n.66 (Florence, 27 & 29 January 2010) is coming to an end with figures and opinions from buyers and exhibitors that display optimism about a recovery over the next few months. Just a few hours before the event closed its doors at the Fortezza da Basso, early forecasts of the final attendance figures showed that Pitti Immagine Filati was attended by almost 4,000 buyers (versus 3,900 in January 2009), a 2% increase in overall attendance. It appears that the number of Italian buyers increased by 4.5%, whereas foreign attendance figures remained at the same levels recorded for the last edition. There was a rise in the number of buyers from the United States, Russia, Holland, Switzerland, Turkey, China, Hong Kong and South Korea, whilst the figures were less positive for Germany, the United Kingdom and Japan.
Public Fashion Orchestra, Network Ideologies Alexandra Von Feldmann fashion house, fashion, intelligent clothes, buy, sell
The "Public Fashion Orchestra" is a fashion house which sells intelligent clothes and their behaviours. All clothes of this brand are networked with each other and when in range are able to share designs and eventually other data; the fashion designer is able to feed new designs and behaviours into the system. The clothes do not only receive, transmit, transform and show the data, they also remember and thereby limit it: once the clothes are "full", they cannot participate in the network anymore unless you get rid of their data manually: do the laundry!

Every object has a skin. Thick or thin, smooth or rough, porous or impermeable, the skin is the line between the hidden inside and the outside we experience. Skin: Surface, Substance, and Design presents products, furniture, fashion, architecture, and media that are expanding the limits of what we understand as surface. Reflecting the convergence of natural and artificial life, this provocative and stimulating book shows how enhanced and simulated skins appear everywhere in our contemporary world. Designers today manipulate the relationship between the inside and outside of objects, garments, and buildings, creating skins that both reveal and conceal, skins that have depth and complexity as well as their own behaviors and identities.

Unravel: the SIGGRAPH2006 Fashion Show presents a runway show of innovative and experimental works in computational and conceptual couture, fashion with a social agenda, science-inspired form, and new technologies of material fabrication. Unravel brings together the work of designers and artists from the US, Canada, Europe, and Asia who are seeking to redefine the notion of 'wearable.' In the increasingly mobile nature of contemporary life, it has become important to contemplate how the devices we carry and the garments we wear converge into a 'secondary skin' which function as an extension of ourselves, in both ability and perception. By using fashion, a medium which has always been associated with self-expression and personal identity, these designers seek to demonstrate how the use (or misuse) of technology and its modes of production have the power to stimulate, delight, and inspire in ways as yet untapped in the fashion world. Gone are the stereotypical bulky cyborg devices; what emerged are garments of beauty, subtlety and elegance in form. Some bring to light important social issues — redefining our notions of personal space, networked environments, and issues of privacy and protection. Others relish in pure delight, reminding us how technology also has the power to enhance our personal relationships and celebrate fantasy and play as part of the human condition.

Futuristic sea vessel could explore indefinitely
If you've ever wondered why anyone spends money searching the stars when 95 per cent of the ocean remains unexplored, or if you've ever coveted a Bond-villain-style underwater hideout, this hypothetical vessel straight out of science fiction is for you.
The SeaOrbiter, which would purportedly be "the only vessel in the world allowing 24-hour exploration on long-term missions of the open sea and the abyss", is the brainchild of French architect and underwater-habitat-builder Jacques Rougerie. Among other things, it would discover new species of sea creature, scour the seabed for lost civilisations and wrecks and presumably become the immediate roosting place for dozens of seabirds.
Inspired by underwater structures of the 70s and 80s, as well as Jules Verne's novel Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea, the SeaOrbiter would, according to its website, function as a mobile home for its 18 to 22 crew, a scientific exploration platform, laboratory and a space simulator for astronauts.
It would be 190 feet tall, run on a mixture of solar and wind power to be almost self-sustaining and provide ample vantage points and facilities to observe life above and below the waves.
A diving drone is included in the designs which would be able to monitor wildlife and seabed remotely at a depth of up to 6000 metres.
The SeaOrbiter would also contain a garage to house submersibles and other equipment and devices to be deployed directly into the sea. It even has a silent mode to avoid disrupting underwater ecosystems.
The project apparently has supporters in high places, with Prince Albert of Monaco and Former NASA administrator Dan Goldin listed as ambassadors, and its development has taken Rougerie the better part of a decade. Yet the Sea Observer is still to be funded.
Following a failed crowd-sourcing attempt earlier this year on French site KissKissBankBank (the campaign raised $466 thousand), Rougerie is currently looking elsewhere for the estimated $48 million it will cost to launch his dream vessel.

Edinburgh has won eight Beautiful Scotland awards.
The prestigious Beautiful Scotland awards are organised by Keep Scotland Beautiful and the competition looks at cleanliness, sustainability and diversity as well as horticulture.
Judges visited Edinburgh on 5 August 2010 and examined floral displays, sustainable development and biodiversity initiatives. They also looked at environmental quality (for example the absence of litter, dog fouling, graffiti, fly-posting and weeds); and community involvement.
It was announced this week that the City of Edinburgh won the City Award, along with a silver gilt medal certificate in the city category; Hailesland Park were presented with the Permanent Landscaping Award as well as a silver gilt medal certificate in the flatted community category.
Another flatted community, Wheatfield Backgreen Association, picked up the Jim MurdieTrophy for Sustainability and a silver gilt medal certificate.
Restalrig and Lochend House went home with a silver gilt medal certificate in the flatted community category and, last but not least, Prestonfield were presented with a bronze medal certificate in the urban community category.
Five local communities within the City of Edinburgh were competing with 73 from across Scotland in the 2010 Beautiful Scotland Awards.
"We are delighted that Edinburgh has picked up eight prestigious awards from Keep Scotland Beautiful, which will help in maintaining Edinburgh 's reputation as a cleaner, greener and attractive city.
"I would like to say a big 'thank you' to all the local community groups who have worked hard to successfully transform their local environments. These volunteers help ensure the city is a great place to live and visit, where locals and visitors alike are able to enjoy clean, sustainable and stunning surroundings."
"Beautiful Scotland celebrates the communities which are working to improve and enhance their local areas through environmental education, recycling, and encouraging litter-free environments as well as horticulture.
"These awards presented today go some way to recognising all the hard work that volunteers and local authorities put in throughout the year to ensure that visitors and local community members are able to enjoy clean, sustainable and beautiful surroundings."
A selection of Edinburgh 's winning communities will also be entered into the Britain in Bloom final.
Beautiful Scotland judges, said: " Edinburgh meets the challenge of its enormous visitor numbers with a blend of determination and innovation. High standards of perennial horticultural display, aided by links with the Edinburgh Botanic Garden , make the city an example of varied and interesting sustainable planting. The city should pride itself on the participation of schools in the Green Flag and Eco-School programmes, as well as its other fine eco educational programmes and initiatives such as in Holyrood Park ."
Beautiful Scotland judges, said: " Hailesland Park can only be described as a complete community landscape designed and maintained by the community. This wonderful area with planted beds full of colour and texture set within and around a series of themed gardens is both unexpected and a delight."
Beautiful Scotland judges, said: "This is a true community project that has been running for five years now. The garden overall has evolved with a type of synergy that professionals seldom achieve. It has all the key elements for success, obvious connecting paths, generous social space, hub gathering areas, and regular organised activities. We cannot fault this garden or the group's efforts. They have been doing so well without any advice that we don't want to give any in case this special garden looses its flavour!"
Beautiful Scotland judges, said: "The landscaped areas and manicured gardens that embrace and surround these two high rise dwellings is a joy to behold, and is a testament to the group's hard and continued work over a long period, as well as the vision they have for this area. These gardens and adjacent areas have transformed the whole area, not just in terms of the visual experience you get but also knowing that it is potentially changing the cultural view of those who live within the area."
Beautiful Scotland judges, said: "The Prestonfield group has a long tradition of working in their area. The war memorial is an important focal point in the community and the work of the group here and the beds by the community centre provide welcome colour. There are a number of attractive private gardens."

from Sunday 11th to Saturday 24th October and any single journey is just £1.
Whether you're travelling from the Ridgeway shops to the City, from Lakeside Drive in Ernesettle to the Train Station, from Asda in Estover to Mutley Plain or from Southway Shops to the City Centre (and all the places in between!) any single journey is only £1!
Terms and conditions: The £1 single flat fare is only available on the new ugobus services 12, 13, 15 and 17 and is applicable for adults and children. Standard fares apply on all other ugobus and First services in Plymouth. Offer available 11th - 24th October inclusive.
The one pound flat fare is a good deal which I am sure will be welcomed by many passengers on the new services. I know several people were looking forward to the 15 to Derriford although from my own home to Derriford on the 50 is only 80P. It also makes we wonder how many people will catch the 7 between Derriford and the City Centre while the 15 is so much cheaper. I guess we will also see something similar for the first week or so of the new Citybus 5 service later in the month.
