So, what does this have to with insulin? Well, insulin is a fat storage hormone and a sugar storage hormone. The more insulin that's around the more sugar will get turned into fat and the more cells will store fat and the fatter you will be. So the brain makes you eat; it especially compels you eat sugar and fat, and today our sources of sugar and fat are endless and ..
One of the fundamental building blocks of the Bright Side Philosophy is the notion of simplicity. As Albert Einstein said, "everything should be made as simple as possible…". Einstein also said "A little knowledge is a dangerous thing and so is a lot!" . It's very easy to get carried away with the minutia and specifics and the nanoscopic details of the human body, and its biology and chemistry and that's why this whole health and healing business seems so complicated. When it comes to weight loss there are 8 zillion strategies and formulas and programs and pills that you can take to lose weight and I'm sure that some of them work. But in the interests of keeping Professor Einstein happy and making things as simple as possible, I'm going to give you my take, the Bright Side take, the simple take on weight loss, which will carve pounds off of off the large majority of people who want to lose weight. If you want to do Jenny Craig or Weight Watchers or Nutragenics or Slimgenics whatever, have at it, but you don't need to.
OK, so the major focal points when it comes to weight loss is body fat, and that's what we're really need to be talking about when we talk about weight loss.
In other words, we don't need to be focusing so much on the numbers on the scale as much as how much extra body fat we're carrying. The reason that's important is because fat is produced via biochemical reactions and once we start looking in this direction, now we can start to target some biochemistry.
The old way of looking at weight loss is called "Calories IN and Calories OUT". And I want everyone to understand something Calories IN and Calories OUT is just bad science. A calorie is a measurement of heat, a unit of heat. The Calories In and Calories Out theory says if you put heat in the body it will get burned and what does not get burned will get stored as fat. The problem with this theory is that it does not take into account the different biochemical mechanism that is involved in turning something into fat. The Calories IN Calories OUT was first developed in the late 19th century and it's based on steam engine science where you but fuel in and it get's burnt. It's very primitive, crude science. Today we know there are key hormone players in this whole weight loss game. And by addressing these hormonal players and their biochemical correlates we can really start to address body weight and more importantly body fat.
Perhaps the most important role is played by the hormone insulin. One of the cool things about looking for elevated insulin is that an increase in the levels of this vital hormone always announces itself. Insulin is a loud-mouth and when insulin chemistry is off, you will know it. And, the classic sign of elevated insulin levels is body fat. Anyone interested in this whole insulin body fat connection should read a book by Gary Taubes called "Good Calories Bad Calories". He has another book called "Why We Get Fat". In both of these books he breaks down in a simple layman's term way (he's a not a chemist he's a sociologist) this whole insulin body fat thing down really well. Taubes presents clear and compelling evidence that THE key to dropping weight/body fat is lowering insulin.
So, how do you lower insulin? Well, it's the simplest thing in the world to do, but it's also the hardest. You know why that is? It's because we all have mental problems. I kind of kidding, but I'm not. Because weight problems may not be caused by mental problems in the traditional sense, but they are caused by are brain problems. That's right. Body fat, weight gain issues begin in the brain this is the most important thing to recognize if we are going to get control over our Great Weight State. Now what do I mean by a brain problem? You see, the brain is programmed to keep the body surviving, and that's it in a nutshell. Our brain is operating under survival conditions. As if our survival is somehow at stake. As if calories are scarce and as if a famine is ion the way.
In terms of body weight the brain is programmed to put on pounds and keep the body eating if it thinks the body's starving. It is constantly reading the blood to see what the situation is in the rest of the body. And one of the things it's reading is protein, specifically it's reading for the levels of the amino acid tryptophan. When the brain senses there is not enough protein (via tryptophan), it will send the owner out for food, and specifically high energy food like fat and sugar. In fact you can't eat enough fat and sugar if you're brain thinks you're starving. Here's another problem with the brain. You know how silly people look when they dress like it was two or three decade as before, like really old hippies that still think it's the sixties? Well, you're brain is kind of like those silly old hippies with the bald heads except for a ratty little pony-tail in the back, except your brain isn't living 40 or 50 years in the past. Your cranial computer is actually living 50-100 thousand years in the past. It thinks from a biological standpoint that you are in the great grasslands of Africa with abundant or not-so-abundant game that you can eat and that can eat you. Now, leaving aside the fact for a moment that this kind of mentality doesn't seem a very nice place to live from, the real salient issue is that this kind of mentality is wreaking havoc on our health in general and or weight in specific.
Under conditions of (perceived) nutrient deficiency, your brain will be sending you on a one pointed hunt for sugar and fat. And then you know what it does? It STORES it and because the brain thinks its Africa and you're starving or that there is a famine on the way.
So, what does this have to with insulin? Well, insulin is a fat storage hormone and a sugar storage hormone. The more insulin that's around the more sugar will get turned into fat and the more cells will store fat and the fatter you will be. So the brain makes you eat; it especially compels you eat sugar and fat, and today our sources of sugar and fat are endless and everywhere, another factoid the brain is blissfully unaware of.
OK, so you can see here this brain problem first, WHICH IS WHY DIETS FAIL!!! You have to override the brain's survival mechanism, which is really a shortcut. The brain doesn't process things with choice if it doesn't have to. Just another reason why the brain is a dumbass.
How do you override the brains anti-starvation, Must Eat signaling? Well, stay tuned. We're gonna save that info for our next post!

Burundi: Education and job creation
Education and job creation
Life for marginalised groups in rural Burundi is tough. Orphans, widows, teenagers and minority tribespeople are all among those who are most vulnerable in their communities. While 83,000 in Burundi are still living with HIV/Aids, that number is, thankfully, declining. This is in part because of the efforts of groups such as our partners, who have a network of community educators visiting and speaking with villages about the risks and prevention.
Crossroads' partner in Burundi is creating training and job opportunities for vulnerable people groups, as well as educating orphans and teaching communities about HIV prevention. Our shipment will help them expand and continue these programmes.
Potential impact:
2,000 reached through HIV and other education workshops
50 youth training in computer centre
500 orphans and widows supported with necessities and healthcare
Thousands offered free health check-ups and tests
Shipment includes:
Computers for youth training centre
Clothing and blankets for orphans and widows
Medical supplies and equipment for free clinics
Appliances and furniture to support HIV education
When Mahuwa talks to women about HIV/Aids and sexual violence, she's speaking from tragic experience. Mahuwa was once working as a prostitute, trying desperately to support her child when she was raped and fell pregnant to her attacker. Now, instead of working in the sex industry, she supports her family by teaching women in her community about their rights, and how to prevent HIV/Aids.
This shipment will include office equipment and furniture to help train and employ more women like Mahuwa as community peer educators.
When Fabrice (above) was just a little boy, every member of his family was killed in Burundi's civil violence. Left alone in the world, Fabrice was driven out of his home and on to the streets. Like many young Burundian boys in his situation, Fabrice was drawn into the conflict and became a combat soldier, but he always longed to return to school for the education that he had missed out on. Thankfully, Crossroads' partner was working in his area and met Fabrice. They enrolled him into school and covered the costs of his education. Fabrice graduated form 6 just last year!
This shipment will help train 50 youth like Fabrice in computer skills so that they have a better chance at a job after finishing school. Crossroads' shipment will include computers for their centre.

Yeclano Deportivo is een Spaanse voetbalclub uit Yecla, opgericht in 2004. Ze komt sinds seizoen 2019/20 uit in de Segunda División B. De ploeg kan gezien worden als de opvolger van de in 2004 failliet gegane ploeg Yeclano CF. De ploeg speelt zijn thuiswedstrijden in Estadio de La Constitución.

Op het einde van het seizoen 2019-2020 kon de ploeg zich, met een mooie vierde plaats voor de eerste keer in haar geschiedenis voor de eindronde naar het professioneel voetbal kwalificeren. Door de coronapandemie werden de rondes in één wedstrijd op neutraal terrein in en rond Marbella gespeeld.  In de eerste ronde bleek Cultural Leonesa veel te sterk tijdens een wedstrijd, die met 4-1 verloren ging.

A new study has shown that more and more homeowners in places like London are opting to rent out their properties.
The Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) reported that there was a significant increase in instructions to let property in the first quarter of 2008.
It explained that owners experiencing difficulty selling their properties have instead decided to rent them out and take advantage of rising yields.
The findings suggest that there might have been an increase in the number of houses to rent in London and other areas of the country.
According to RICS, demand for family homes and flats increased during the quarter, as rising house prices stopped many from getting onto the property ladder.
"Some would-be sellers are retreating from selling and letting or re-letting their properties as they wait for mortgage lenders to offer buyers more favourable lending criteria," explained RICS spokesperson James Scott-Lee.
"While transaction numbers in the sales market are weak, many are taking advantage of rising rents and yields in the private lettings sector."

Professor: On Giving Tuesday, spread the wealth, don't concentrate it
This is a column by John A. Tures, a professor of political science at LaGrange College.
Americans have been very generous on Giving Tuesday. However, they often give money to where everyone else gives money, mostly because they may not know about other options to help. But with a little more research, you can spread the wealth, giving to those who need it just a little more.
In 2018, Americans gave away nearly a half-trillion dollars, according to Giving USA. But most of it went to 150 charities, even though there are more than 1.6 million nonprofits.
It's the same for schools. According to MarketWatch, 20 elite universities serve less than 2% of all students yet rake in about a third of the donations. They've got the organizational setup to grab more while making them bigger, which increases their funding operations. It's a lot more like college football, where the Davids don't stand a chance against the Goliaths.
But maybe you want a little more bang for your buck, so to speak. The Ivy League schools aren't constructing enough buildings to have your name on it, and there are only so many endowed chairs. But what if you can give to one of those David schools?
Seek out schools to help that are high need. For example, though I teach at a small private college, many of our students are Pell-eligible with a number of those classified as high need. With all the spots at the large research 1 universities mostly taken by those who can afford to prepare for a spot at a cheaper university, they're turning to the small schools hoping to take advantage of the small faculty-to-student ratio and undergraduate research opportunities.
Is it worth it? At a pre-pandemic conference, a colleague bragged about his school's impressive list of speakers.
"Who is speaking at your college?" he asked.
So, I regaled him with tales of speakers who prosecuted terrorists, testified before Congress, overcame disabilities to win awards and won big legal judgments.
"How did you get them all to agree to speak at your school?" he said, clearly impressed.
"They're all graduates of our college," I replied.
I let our students know from the beginning that they have a great opportunity to succeed — if they'll take advantage of the opportunity. We find all kinds of ways of giving them a top experience on a budget. My students know to expect a Days Inn when we travel to a conference in Savannah or might stay at a youth hostel in Washington, D.C., when they tour the Holocaust Memorial Museum and National Museum of African American History and Culture, and won't get to travel abroad without the generous donations that make those trips possible.
We can do a lot with a little — but we can do even more that can help more students, from Servant Scholars to undergraduate research to putting on religious services to science experiments to internships. To help a small college not on the list that everyone gives to, you'd be a big fish in a small pond. But more than just the recognition, you'd get to see what keeps me where I am: watching students learn new skills, present scholarly material and perform on the stage, field or in the studio, and realizing that you played a part in that student's development. It's a moment worthy of a charming Christmas movie.

Spring is officially here and to celebrate I created this papercut design incorporating blossom from our local trees. We had our first official walk without our coats on, yes it was that warm on the forest! Here's to the lighter evenings and longer days.... and more paper cutting!


The Brion Cemetery was designed by Carlo Scarpa. Extension is an exploration of the original design with the added design of an extension for a museum of the site and culture of the area. The model of the Brion Cemetery was a project done in partnership. The Extension project itself was an individual response on the analysis of the site.
The program includes a visitor center, archives, offices, interior gallery and exterior gallery. Because of the size of the program requirements, the new design needed to be strategically located outside the existing limits of the site.
The extension accentuates the axis that was the original access path and an important part of Scarpa's design. The new deisgn bridges over the main axis and aligns itself with the built-in views and shifts made by Scarpa.

Home Essays Polygamy
Topics: Polygamy, Family, United Arab Emirates Pages: 5 (3022 words) Published: October 31, 2014
Introduction Polygamy, the practice where one husband has many wives, is a hotly debated topic in the world. This practice can be found in many parts of the world, especially in North Africa as well as in the Middle East. In the latter area, there are many instances of polygamy and this habit has been researched by many scholars, especially from the point of view that this practice has bad effects on the women and children who are in these families. Many research papers call for this practice to be abolished due to its ill-effects and many calls are made on legal and religious experts to take a strong stand against it as women suffer through this practice. This essay will try to explain the different aspects of polygamy with reference to Bedouin polygamous marriages (Abu Rabia, 2011). What is polygamy Polygamy is a practice that is open to widespread misunderstandings. It is the practice which is defined as a relationship between one husband and multiple wives. It is neither exclusively Western nor non-Western and it has been practiced by some Hindus, Mormons, Muslims, and other cultural and religious groups throughout the world (Al-Krenawi Slonim-Nevo, 2006). Polygamous marriage is common in the Middle East, Africa, Asia, and the Pacific Islands . It also occurs in Europe, North America, and other Western Societies. Correct, accurate and current statistics on the prevalence of polygamy around the world are not available as all cases are not reported or recorded. In African countries, estimates range from 20 to 50 of all marriages. There are higher rates reported among less educated husbands and wives. It is very prevalent among Muslims, and among rural residents. In recent years, there has been a significant increase in the rates of polygamy among highly educated men who can afford a second wife. It was estimated in 2006 that in Muslim countries, 212 of all married men live in polygamous families. The most common number of wives per Muslim Arab man is two. The trend in polygamy has varied between different Arab countries. In some, the practice has declined, while in others the phenomenon increased, and in yet others have remained stable (Al-Krenawi Slonim-Nevo, 2006). The Law and Polygamy Abu Rabia (2008) argues that it is not an easy topic to address in terms of the law. This is especially so with reference to the problem of polygamous marriages in the Naqab desert area. According to her, there are many factors involved which make it a difficult issue to settle just in terms of the law. The law of 1977 classifies polygamy in the area as a crime punishable by imprisonment. However, it is not enforced among the Arab Bedouin as a result of so-called cultural sensitivity. Due to the law not being strictly applied, men get away with polygamy (Abu Rabia, 2011). Opponents of polygamy argue that it is done selectively in view of other harsh treatments of the Palestine people. It seems as if the authorities allow this habit in order to maintain good relations with the tribal leadership at the expense of the Arab Bedouin women. Polygamy and the Islamic (Sharia) system Polygamy is embodied in Islam as a religion. A man is accordingly permitted to marry up to four wives (Koran, Sura 4, Chapter 3). Islam permits this only if some criteria are met a man may not have more than four wives at any time he must have the appropriate economic means to provide equally for more than one woman he should also pay attention to and care for all women equally (Al-Krenawi Slonim-Nevo, 2006). Sharia religious system controls issues of marriage and divorce among Muslims. The system allows polygamous marriages under certain circumstances. It is argued that these marriages could have been performed by an official mazuun (Islamic notary).This highlights the discrimination against women and the favouring of mens rights according to Bedouin customs (Abu Rabia, 2008 Abu Rabia,2011). Suffering of Women in Polygamous marriages The women in these marriages...

Polygamy Essay
...Is Polygamy Socially Acceptable? The reality TV show Sister Wives follows the lives of a polygamist family of 22. The husband, Cody Brown, has 4 wives: Meri, Janelle, Christine, and the latest addition Robyn. The number of polygamists in North America, estimated at 50,000 or more, is doubling every decade. Polygamy by definition is a marriage that includes more than two partners. When a man is married to more than one woman at the same time it is called polygany and when a woman is married to more than one man at the same time it is called polyandry. Polygamy is not a new practice, in fact it has been going on for centuries. However, with recent growing publicity from shows like Sister Wives, more and more people are becoming aware of its' existence. Polygamy to most people might seem foreign and strange but there can be benefits from having sister wives. Provided they get along, the sister wives have lifelong friends that they can trust and depend on. Women who grew up with no other siblings can, in a way, see what it's like to have sisters. Another plus is they never have to worry about hiring a babysitter because many times there are at least two other woman in the family to take care of their children. If one wife doesn't feel like cooking dinner one night, she has three other wives to get it done for her. One of the wives on the show, Meri, has one daughter but is no longer able to have children so having her...
...Lauren Furlong October 9, 2008 EN 209:50 Dr. Oty Agbajoh-Laoye In a culture where infant mortality is outrageously high and the average woman has fifteen children, most of whom do not survive, polygamy has been practiced to not only show a man's wealth, but also to assure the continuation of the man's family name. Polygamy is represented in many cultures. African culture has a history of polygamy which can be shown through books such as "The Joys of Motherhood". Women that are victims of polygamy can face many positive and negative effects that this lifestyle can present but obey their families because of tradition. In the common African community, life is hard and women have long seen the advantages of having co-wives to help share the burden. This allowed a distribution of labor, in which there were more women to build the family home, which is considered a female responsibility, and other work. It also eased the burden of child bearing, as each wife was not carrying the burden of the family procreation alone. Few women wanted to be a lone wife in a marriage, given the multiple burdens society and tradition would require of her. According to an African newspaper who took a recent poll, 45 percent of poll takers say having more than one wife is a great idea.Women, also being in the position of being held responsible for the sex of their children, risked being returned to their parents for not...
...Polygamy, a tradition needed to be changed Nno! Kwenu! The body of Egwugwu, I salute you. The reason why were are her in the ilo is for the discussion of a very gruesome tradition. I am here to address the current issue of shortage of women for men like me in the village for marriage. There is a particular tradition practiced in our village which has ruined many lives of men like me in the village and such men who don't have a wife are considered to be efulefu, and there is no doubt about that that the tradition should be changed. The tradition that has caused all these misery in the lives of many men in the Igbo village is that of Polygamy which is why many people do not have their companions and others have more than one, decreasing the respect given to each of them. Polygamy is a very cruel tradition which should be banned and is being removed off from other parts of the world too. By banning this tradition, each man could have a wife to look after him and for the moral support of a person and also the respect given to each woman would be increased, also due to Polygamy many men who have been forced to marry more than one woman get stuck in economic crisis which eventually leads the family to an end. Also through this I personally would be benefitted as I would have a wife who would take care of me and help in every step of my life and would have increased respect in the society and also through my marriage I...
One Wife, Two Wife, Three Wife, More? Should Polygamy be Acceptable in Today's Society? Essay
...Wife, Three Wife, More? Should Polygamy be Acceptable in Today's Society? In today's society, we have a variety of family dynamics. Who is to say what is normal? Although there are laws to abide by, those laws do not always fit how a family defines itself. We think of a typical family as having one father, one mother, and perhaps a couple of children, but now we are coming to terms with more alternative lifestyles. A single mother or father can raise a child without persecution. As a nation, we are slowly accepting same-sex partners raising children. Even Bi-racial families are more accepted in today's society than in the past. So why is it that many people see polygamy as wrong? While not everyone will agree with this lifestyle, polygamy should be considered a viable form of family life. Polygamy is the state or practice of having more than one spouse simultaneously. It is practiced within many cultures. While the term means plural, that does not mean to wed more than one spouse legally. Even though it is illegal in all 50 states, most polygamists will wed their first spouse and either have common law marriages or spiritual marriage ceremonies. In the early 1830s, historians speculated that Joseph Smith, founder of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, began directing the members of his church to practice polygamy (White 453). In 1862, Congress passed what is known as "the Manifesto,"...
Polygamy and Its Misogynistic Effects Essay
...any representations or warranties with respect to the translations. Polygamy a Burning Issue The debate surrounding the issue polygamy is highly fervent, impassioned and ideologically charged. Sarcastically, it might be said, 'If marriage to a woman civilizes a man it follows that the more women a man marries, the more civilized he becomes.' This is the world of polygamy. Polygamy explores abundant debates concerning the practice of plural matrimonial, including spousal abuse, child abuse, legal and religious issues, and the possibility of finding love and meaning beyond traditional unions. Introduction to Polygamy: At IssueThe question of whether polygamy is a feasible substitute lifestyle has recently re-emerged in some societies. For many the idea of faithfulness as a virtue would vanish overnight were polygamy to become a law of the land. It's a question of personal freedom, while for others it is an issue of morals, of right and wrong. In 1862, the U.S. outlawed polygamy; it was likened to or treated like slavery. But polygamists were still able to thrive in remote communities all through many western states and that they did; many were and are part of the Fundamentalist Church of Latter-day Saints (FDLS). They have been responsible for profuse social chaos: physical abuse, incest, child-marriage, tax evasion, welfare fraud. The local authorities have a...
Polygamy vs. Monogamy Essay
...In our society monogamous relationships are what we find common. But in other cultures or societies they believe differently. For example: Polygamy. Polygamy refers to a type of marriage where there is going to be more than one spouse, but most of the time this is going to mean more than one wife (University of Montreal). These two types of marriages are the typical heterosexual marriage arrangements that exist in the world today. For most people in other countries a monogamous marriage is the norm while the traditional African and Muslim cultures favor the polygamous setting. Once a woman marries in to a polygamous family the man may already have married two, three, or four other women. He has probably already had children with the other women, so really the "new" wife that will be marrying the man could already have a family of twelve, thirteen, or more by the time they tie the knot. A polygamy ceremony is performed in a "Sealing Room," a room that has an altar in the center of it and has kneeling cushions on each side. At the head of the altar there are two seats for the "Witnesses," their signatures will appear on the temple's marriage certificate (Belien). Others attending the ceremony stand about the room on either side of the altar. The Officiator who performs the sealing stands at the head of the altar. A monogamous ceremony is similar. The bride walks down the aisle, stands (instead of kneeling) in front of the groom,...
Original Marriage Polygamy Essay
...Once referred to as the "original marriage" Polygamy is now an alternative lifestyle lived by many, but is it right? There are multiple countries around the world that believe that this is in fact an applicable way of living. The Origins of polygamy are extremely vast and are practiced all over the world. However, in the United States it is illegal, yet there are many knowing individuals who still partake in this style of living. It is reported that "there are 40,000 people living in polygamous families or communities across the Western region of the U.S" (Scharnberg & Brachear, 2006). Should these people be prosecuted? Or are we as Americans pre judging a lifestyle that we know nothing about? In this paper, I will discuss what polygamy is, the controversies surrounding polygamy in the United States, and how polygamy emerged and extended through various cultures and religions globally. In addition, I will further explain if it is still practiced, and if so, is it accepted and acknowledged by their creed. Polygamy consists of three forms; they are polygyny, polyandry, and group marriage. Polygyny is the practice of having more than one wife at the same time. This was the original name for polygamy during the ninetieth century, it later became known as polygamy. The second form is polyandry which is the act of having many husbands at more than one time. Of the...

Tapping into innovation
Through a new effort called the Technology Acceleration Program (TAP), Missouri S&T is providing seed money for commercially viable research projects in an attempt to move technology out of the laboratory and into the marketplace. It's doing so by reinvesting the university's earnings from patents.
Keith Strassner. (Photo by B.A. Rupert)
"So many great ideas end up languishing in the laboratory" due to a lack of "proof of concept" funding, says Keith Strassner, Chem'79, director of technology transfer and economic development. TAP is designed to "bridge the commercialization gap" and allow researchers to further refine promising ideas.
"We're focusing on those ideas that we are pursuing patent protection for, but for which we don't yet have a licensee," he says.
For the first year of the new program, Missouri S&T earmarked $75,000 in royalty income and solicited proposals for funding of three projects of up to $25,000 each. "We wanted to know from the researchers, 'What are you going to do to make the project more marketable?'"
The university received six proposals and funded three.
"These are projects where the researchers need to develop more data to support their idea, build a prototype or otherwise push their technology further toward commercialization," Strassner says.
One of the TAP-funded projects will help a researcher develop a prototype for an energy-efficient water heating system, while another will help a researcher gather data on a new specialty glass that could be used to re-grow bone and soft tissue. The third project involves the development of computerized "smart" sensor technology to monitor bridges for cracks or other defects before they grow into larger problems.
Missouri S&T's licensing income last year was around $400,000, and about 22 percent of that — or roughly $89,000 — will go to the technology transfer program to continue the TAP effort.
While other universities provide seed funding for similar commercialization efforts, Strassner says Missouri S&T is unique in its approach of reinvesting royalty income.
"We think it's the right thing to do — to take the money from one invention and invest it in the next one," he says.

A Woman Is Her Own Temple
By Pihu Yadav, November 21st 2016
http://tcat.tc/2gcVyfD
Thomas Kelley
From the age of the Mahabharata and the Ramayana, women have been looked down upon. They were counted in and treated like sudras (the lowest caste the Indian hierarchy), they weren't even allowed to read the holy books. Our own wives and daughters treated like they did not belong. Our own mothers, who gave us the beautiful gift of life were accused of a sinful birth. What was it all for? Even as we have come a long way beyond those periods, have we grown enough to look past all of it? Accept our female counterparts just for who they are?
I happen to find out about how the women of that age were mistreated through a lot of quotes, surprisingly, through quotes from Hindu scriptures.
Is this what has smeared the minds of men of the 21st century? Is this the reason that men, by default, have accepted that women are objects of their belongingness? I suppose, yes.
Sage Ashtavakra said, "Women can never be their own mistresses. This is the opinion of the Creator himself, that a woman never deserves to be independent There is not a single woman in the three worlds that deserves to be regarded as the mistress of her own self. The father protects her while she is a maiden. The husband protects her while she is in youth. Sons protect her when she is aged.Women can never be independent as long as they live. The Mahabharata Anusasana Parva, Section XX"
It makes me sad, to read such words from a culture that is so celebrated. I used to take pride in being a part of it, being a Hindu.
These words only let me down, to think that the status hasn't changed a tiny bit from millions of years ago, to now.
Question yourselves, what kind of protection was it when the Pandavas had to bet on their own wife after they lost everything and watched as Dushasana disrobed her? What kind of protection is it now, when a man comes home drunk and beats the life out of his wife? Until today, I was never in favour of writing about women; I never thought that, for a feminist, it was okay to write about women only. Now, I know why they do it; why women are in need of such attention. They deserve it. When the scriptures have done so well in sculpting a submissive image for women, it is time for us to change that.
Lord Indra himself has said, "The mind of woman cannot be disciplined; she has very little intelligence." – Rig Veda 8.33.17
We've had women like Cleopatra, Jane Austen, Queen Victoria, Florence Nightingale, Mirabai, Marie Curie, Helen Keller, Rani Lakshmibai, Annie Besant, Mother Teresa, Indira Gandhi, Anne Frank, Wangari Maathai, Benazir Bhutto, Oprah Winfrey, Princess Diana, Joan Kathleen Rowling, Malala Yousafzai and Queen Elizabeth II in our history; women who've made history.
I would have named a few and used etcetera, but I wanted us to remember each one of them, of the immeasurable efforts they have shown towards the society. The queens in our history did not, for a second, flinch and give up. They ruled just as fine as any king would have, and we call them of little intelligence.
Women have been accused of speaking untruth, debarred from the study of Vedas, are said to be false in behaviour and labelled as seducers. No wonder they blame a victim for her own rape in the 21st century. She does not have equal rights as another man of her status and is paid less for the same post. They want to keep her buried and forget that the extent of this might be the possibility that their sons might never be born to continue this tradition of theirs – to disrespect women.
Ansuya (Rishi Atri's wife) said to Sita, "A woman is impure by her very birth; but she attains a happy state by serving her lord (husband)"- Tulasi Ramayana Aranya Kanda, 5 A-B
Women pitting against women. Accepting their own miseries as their fate is bad enough. The Lords managed to imprint this on their minds that all these women were, were worshippers to their husbands. Nowhere is it mentioned of how a man should treat his wife, of how he should respect her as she does him, of how he should love her and care for her after everything she does for him. The only job of a husband is to earn for the family and sit like and idol when he gets home.
Never have I ever been so embarrassed because of who I am. I believe that every woman is a Goddess, she can do things that a man can never. The Higher Power has made her to serve a greater purpose, to continue what it started. How can even one dare to put her down in such a way? How can one be daring enough to make her go through an agnipariksha? How is it possible that a woman with five husbands is unclothed in a court full of men?
A woman is pure and divine; she is selfless and giving; but she is also bold and hard working.
When a woman comes back from work, she cooks supper and wait until everybody in the household is done. All a man does is wait for his tea and food to be served. A woman can do a million tasks and yet never complain, ask a man to do two extra chores and he's yelling already. It's high time when women need to stop seeking permission from men, be it their fathers, husbands or sons. It's high time women stood up for themselves and took pride in being who they are and what they are.
Women should be proud of their uteruses and the wonders it can do. Apologizing for being real, should be the last thing a woman should ever do in her life. Carry those bodies and the smiles on your faces gracefully. Hold your heads high, and show the world that you are not afraid of one damn thing.

I created this kit as an introduction to Indoor NoCal. This airplane was chosen after an internet search due to the fact that the real plane was modified with a Garrett Turboprop replacing the radial engine and the round wingtips were clipped. These full scale modifications of this one-off plane give the NoCal model excellent proportions: at 16" fuselage and a 56 square inch wing.
After I designed it, I collaborated with Indoor guru, Don Slusarczyk, to produce an "introductory" indoor NoCal kit. With suggestions from him implemented, but not changing my kit, my prototype flew a 2:06 flight on its first day. Don built a second prototype, following the kit, and his first day best was 3:35 under a 24' ceiling. Outstanding performance for a kit product built with 1/16" "hobby shop" wood (find yourself some 6 pound wood). My best flight to date is 5:17.
This kit includes a detailed plan, full of notes for indoor building, one sheet of 1/16" balsa (no greater than 7 pound balsa) laser cut parts, and one sheet of 1/32" laser cut parts, including prop blade blanks for forming your own indoor prop.

PRESENTED BYCH.PRADEEP
FIRST SEASON :
1. INDIAN PREMIER LEAGUE PRESENTED BY CHEEKATLA PRADEEP
2. INDIAN PREMIER LEAGUE The Indian Premier League (IPL) is a professional league for Twenty20 cricket championship in India. It was initiated by the Board of Control for Cricket in India(BCCI), headquartered in Mumbai, and is supervised by BCCI Vice President Rajeev Shukla, who serves as the leagues Chairman and Commissioner. It is currently contested by nine teams, consisting of players from around the world. It was started after an altercation between the BCCI and the Indian Cricket League. IPL is the inspiration for various international T20 leagues including Friends Life t20 (England), MiWay T20 Challenge(South Africa) , Big Bash League (Australia), Bangladesh Premier League (Bangladesh). In 2010, IPL became the first sporting event ever to be broadcast live on YouTube in association with Indiatimes . Its brand value is estimated to be around $3.67 billion in fourth season . According to the Annual Review of Global Sports Salaries by sportingintelligence.com, IPL is the second highest-paid league, based on first-team salaries on a pro rata basis, second only to the NBA. It is estimated that the average salary of an IPL player over a year would be $3.95 million.
3. HOW IT ALL STARTED...? In year 2007 after discussion between Mr.Lalit kumar Modi(vice-president of the BCCI) & Andrew Wildblood of the International Management Group (IMG) in England.. In Feb 2008 starting of selecting players & team bidders which were from some of India's richest and most powerful names , from industrials to film stars. Selection of franchisees from different companies. Selection of Media for make publicity of IPL & for telecast of matches.
4. FROM 18 APRIL 2008 ITS ALL BEGIN 8TEAMS WERE MADE 16 PLAYERS ARE FROM ALL COUNTRIES 8 FROM INDIAN TEAM 4 FROM OTHER COUNTRIES 3 FROM RANGI TEAM 1 FROM UNDER 19 TEAM OF INDIA
5. HISTORY FIRST SEASON: The inaugural season of the tournament started on 18 April 2008 and lasted for 46 days with 59 matches scheduled, out of which 58 took place and 1 was washed out due to rain. The final was played in DY Patil Stadium, Nerul, Navi Mumbai. Every team played each other both at home and away in a round robin system. The top four ranking sides progressed to the knockout stage of semi-finals followed by a final. Rajasthan Royals defeated Chennai Super Kings in a last ball thriller and emerged as the inaugural IPL champions.
6.  SECOND SEASON : The 2009 season coincided with the General Elections in India. Owing to concerns regarding players security, the venue was shifted to South Africa. The format of the tournament remained same as the inaugural one. Hyderabad Deccan Chargers , who finished last in the first season , were big underdogs, but came out as eventual winners defeating the Royal Challengers Bangalore in the final. Hyderabad Deccan set a target of 144 with the help of Gibbs(53) and defended it.
7.  THIRD SEASON: The third season opened in January 2010 with the auction for players. 66 players were on offer but only 11 players were sold. In this season, Hyderabad Deccan Chargers did not play at their preferred home location of Hyderabad, India due to the ongoing political crisis in the Telangana region . The new bases for the champions this season were Nagpur, Navi Mumbai and Cuttack. Four teams qualified for the semi- finals. The first semi-final was won by Mumbai Indians who defeated Bangalore Royal Challengers by 35 runs. Chennai Super Kings defeated Hyderabad Deccan Chargers in the second semi-final. The final was played between Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians. Chennai Super Kings won by a margin of 22 runs.
8.  FOURTH SEASON:On 21 March 2010, it was announced in Chennai that two new teams from Pune and Kochi will be added to the IPL for the fourth season. However, the bid around the Kochi franchisee turned controversial resulting in the resignation of minister, Shashi Tharoor from the Central Government and investigations by various departments of the Government of India into the financial dealings of IPL and the other existing franchisees. Later, Lalit Modi was also removed from IPL chairmanship by BCCI. On 5 December 2010, it was confirmed that Kochi will take part in the fourth season of IPL. Chennai Super Kings won their second consecutive IPL title after defeating Royal Challengers Bangalore by 58 runs in the fourth season of IPL.CSK had beaten RCB in the playoffs too while RCB defeated Mumbai Indians to reach the final. This is the first time a franchise has won two IPL titles, had four consecutive semi-final visits, come to the finals three times, and successfully defended their title. The top four teams namely CSK, RCB, KKR and MI have also qualified for the Champions League. MUMBAI INDIANS are the current Champions League Twenty20 champions.
9.  FIFTH SEASON: The fifth season this time with 9 teams is set to start on 4 April 2012 in mumbai , for which the players auction was held on 4 February 2012 in Bangalore. The season saw IPL authority increasing the number of players in each squad to 33 from the previous limit of 30 and also increased the salary cap by $0 million. FIFTH IPL TEAMS
10. SPONSORSHIPS Indias biggest property developer DLF Group paid US$50 million to be the title sponsor of the tournament for 3 years from 2008 to 2010. Other year sponsorship agreements include a deal with motorcycle maker Hero Honda worth $22.5-million, one with PepsiCo worth $12.5-million, and a deal with beer and airline conglomerate Kingfisher at $26.5-million. The IPL is predicted to bring the BCCI income of approximately US$1.6 billion, over a period of five to ten years. All of these revenues are directed to a central pool, 40% of which will go to IPL itself, 54% to franchisees and 6% as prize money. The money will be distributed in these proportions until 2017, after which the share of IPL will be 50%, franchisees 45% and prize money 5%. The IPL signed up Kingfisher Airlines as the official umpire partner for the series in a 106 crore (US$21.15 million) (approximately £15 million) deal. This deal sees the Kingfisher Airlines brand on all umpires uniforms and also on the giant screens during third umpire decisions.
11. TELEVISION RIGHTS On 15 January 2008 it was announced that a consortium consisting of Indias Sony Entertainment Television network and Singapore-based World Sport Group secured the global broadcasting rights of the Indian Premier League. The record deal has a duration of ten years at a cost of US $1.026 billion. As part of the deal, the consortium will pay the BCCI US $918 million for the television broadcast rights and US $108 million for the promotion of the tournament. This deal was challenged in the Bombay High Court by IPL, and got the ruling on its side. After losing the battle in court, Sony Entertainment Television signed a new contract with BCCI with Sony Entertainment Television paying 8,700 crore (US$1.74 billion) for 10 years. One of the reasons for payment of this huge amount is seen as the money required to subsidize IPLs move to South Africa which will be substantially more than the previous IPL. IPL had agreed to subsidize the difference in operating cost between India and South Africa as it decided to move to the African nation after the security concerns raised because of its coincidence with Indias general elections. 20% of these proceeds would go to IPL, 8% as prize money and 72% would be distributed to the franchisees. The money would be distributed in these proportions until 2012, after which the IPL would go public and list its shares (But in March 2010, IPL decided not to go public).
12. STRENGTHSThe Indian Premier League (IPL) is based upon the Twenty20 cricket game which should be completed in 3 hours. That makes it very appealing as mass sport , just like Americian Foot ball , Basketball and Soccer.The IPL has employed economists to structure its lead so that revenue is maximized..
13. WEAKNESSESTwenty20 has been so popular that it could replace other forms of cricket.Some fans will also have to pay for travel to the ground .There may be some distance between where the fans lives and the cricket ground.Stakes are very high..
14. THANK YOU

There is one crucial element in improving productivity that involves tapping into the expertise of other people: delegation.
As an organisation grows, the tasks and responsibilities of various team members may become less defined. Without proper planning and delegation, your company's growth may suffer. That's why it's important to harness the skills and experience of other professionals via outsourcing.
Running a business can become daunting especially when the tasks pile up. It can get overwhelming and when things are not handled well, productivity may suffer. Some business owners may get too busy taking care of things on their own, thinking they have to be on top of everything. While it's okay to be aware of every single detail about one's business, the unwillingness to delegate may send the wrong message and make your team feel alienated.
Delegating tasks is one way of showing your team that you trust their skills. Ultimately, this will help you deliver output more efficiently. You can take on new challenges and create more opportunities not just for you but the entire team as well.
Here at The Outsourced Accountant, we employ highly skilled professionals who can take care of your business needs from bookkeeping, accounting to providing guest support. Through the dedication and hard work of our excellent staff, we are able to add value to our clients' businesses.
How do we help firms achieve growth and success?
Our trusted colleagues are dedicated and hard-working professionals who not only enjoy their jobs but; they also love going the extra mile to add value to their respective clients. Meet some of them.
Joyce is a senior accountant with 10 years of professional experience. She's been with the company for 1 year now. With her skills and expertise, she helps accounting and finance firms grow fast.
She saves her client's time by taking on process-driven tasks so they can redirect their focus and energy on things that will add value to their respective clients. In addition, by letting her take care of various tasks, the firms can become more client-facing and have more time to forge better relationships with their own clients.
Joyce works at the background, where she dutifully takes care of the presentation of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. Her role also allows her to be responsible for vital processes like maintaining and balancing subsidiary accounts, payroll processing, financial status summaries, and external audit among others.
More importantly, she ensures that her client's' resources are efficiently utilised for improved productivity and growth.
Already with the The Outsourced Accountant for 3 years now, Merry is an administration team leader and she clearly makes her client's' lives easy because she takes care of a wide variety of tasks from managing calendars, email, setting up and taking minutes of meetings, providing guest support, and even making travel arrangements. She also goes the extra mile by helping select gifts for her client's' loved ones.
Highly skilled and proven efficient in what she does, Merry can prepare reports and presentations. She can also manage websites as well as social media accounts.
The role she has is definitely a crucial one as these are critical for any business. With her taking care of these, her clients now have more time to do the tasks they actually enjoy doing. Consequently, they are able to provide high level value for their respective clients.
Having an offshore team is one of the best decisions you can make for your business. By doing so, you won't be bogged down with time-consuming tasks that you would rather have someone else do again. You will also be able to effectively manage your meetings and be on top of all paperworks.
You will get more done without spending more time at the office.
Recognising the need for outsourcing accounting tasks will help you get a step closer to success. To become the firm of the future, you need to be more strategic in your business decisions and that begins with tapping the talents, skills, and positive attitude of an offshore team, like the one we have here in the Philippines, you can keep up with the times and propel your company to success.
Want to learn more effective ways to boost your firm's performance and find the right people to help you achieve success? Our local experts are more than happy to have a no-obligation 15-30 minute consultation with you. Book a meeting here now.

Crewe Alex step up Jon Guthrie contract talks
And Steve Davis is also keen to get Ben Garratt tied to a new deal

Steve Davis will hold talks with Jon Guthrie's agent this week as he steps up his mission to get the big defender and keeper Ben Garratt to sign new contracts.
The manager reported yesterday that neither Guthrie or Garratt – two mainstays of the Crewe Alex side who shared the player-of-the-year accolades last term – have responded to the offers put in front of them during the summer.
Davis wants to persuade the players to stay at Gresty Road and continue learning their trade.
He explained: "We're speaking to Jon's agent this week, we'll know a bit more then.
"The Garratt one, I'm not sure, I think that's going to go on a little bit. We'll wait and see, he's mulling it over.
"They are both important, we want to get them both sorted.
"They have had those offers for getting on for two months I'd have thought, time is ticking on and we just want to know where we are going to be, if they are going to be here next season and the season after, that's important for planning ahead.
"We are keen to tie them down and get them to accept the offers. They are both doing well but they are not ready to go in my opinion."
Guthrie, who has started 15 of 16 games so far this term, has made steady progress since joining Crewe from non-league Pewsey Vale in 2012 and is now a linchpin at the heart of defence.
The 24-year-old's case is arguably the more pressing as he could leave for free next summer.
Garratt, who made his Alex debut in 2013, is ever-present in the side. At 22, the club would be owed compensation for the homegrown custodian if he chose to leave at the end of the season.
Some clubs might drop contract rebels from the team to apply pressure, but Davis says that won't happen at Crewe.
He added: "A lot of clubs would leave them out and bring in someone else.
"But it would be unfair to leave anybody out just because they haven't signed a contract."

Home > Cruises > Ocean cruises > Our ships > Saga Sapphire > Saga Sapphire blog > Liverpool
The Liverpool pilot must have been very keen as his boat came racing out towards us some thirty minutes before the scheduled ETA. He was indeed very cheery and it wasn't until later when I spoke with our local agent, that I found out the reason why, he normally only pilots the scrap carrying ships, not that I read anything into that. A special assignment for him then.
The Mersey was much the same as when I last passed through the brown murky waters over twelve years ago, except the skyline had changed somewhat. The beaches of Crosby had Antony Gormley statues of men embedded in the sands which apparently caused a certain degree of consternation amongst the locals when they were first placed. There were numerous calls to the coastguard when these 'men' were thought to be about to drown as the tide rose and enveloped them. From a distance the Liver Building seemed to be divided by a very tall slim apartment eau de nil coloured building. In fact as we came much closer it was a few hundred yards to the west, along with several other modern buildings that have gone up in the interval. They are a sign of great investment to what was a very run down area, which now also includes the new Cruise Pier, a series of large floating concrete structures which rise and fall with the tide.
While our passengers disappeared off to see the 'Beatles Experience', 'Iconic Liverpool' and further afield to Snowdonia, I remained to greet terminal staff, including a lovely enthusiastic lady with that unmistakeable accent who presented me with a present for the ship. It was a small cast statue of the flightless Liver Bird, obviously a proud symbol of Liverpool, but it's somewhat prehistoric appearance may take some explaining to the foreign guests who, on occasion, visit my quarters.
The weather, in true British summer fashion, was not great, but at least it did not rain. The folks came back suitably impressed I believe, and as we were not due to sail until 2300 hours, a local 'sounds like' group, the 'Cheatles' came on board to entertain. The accents were good, the songs were the same, the wigs were impressive and they even managed to get a few of our still lively folks up onto the dance floor.


I like the security of a local wallet, but at the same time I don't like the limited access. So I'm thinking I'll install the same wallet software on a second computer at my office and use the same seed words. This should get me access to the same private keys both at home and the office. I'll be the only person using the wallets, so accidental double sending won't happen. I don't know if transactions created on one wallet will show on the other, however, but I don't care to much about that.
Are there any potential issues with this that I'm not seeing?
I'll be using Electrum and Coinomi through Bluestacks, both on Windows 7.
I'm not too familiar with how Electrum handles duplicate seeds. Personally, I start a multi-signature wallet and require only one signer but add two signers (my mobile device & my laptop). You can do this on Copay, Electrum, and most other bitcoin wallets.
It seems to me using the same seed for two wallets will result in those wallets being duplicates of each other. i.e. all the coins will be spendable by either wallet. This offers no advantage in my mind, and seems like it weakens security since there would now be two places for an attacker to get your private key.
Interesting idea to use Bluestacks to run multiple wallets.

Războiul civil al lui Cezar a fost unul din ultimele conflicte militaro-politice din Republica Romană înainte de întemeierea Imperiului Roman.  Conflictele au avut loc în perioada 10 ianuarie 49 î.Hr. – 17 martie 45 î.Hr. între forțele propopulare Populares conduse de Iulius Cezar și forțele aristrocrate conservatoare Optimates ale Republicii Romane conduse de Senatul Roman și Pompei.

Dupa o perioadă de patru ani (49-45 î.Hr.) de lupte politico-militare, de confruntări militare în Italia, Grecia, Egipt, Africa și Hispania, Cezar a învins ultimii Optimates în Bătălia de la Munda și a devenit Dictator perpetuus (Dictatorul pe viață) al Romei. Schimbările din conducerea romană concomitent cu acest război civil au dus la eliminarea tradițiilor politice ale Republicii Romane (509-27 î.Hr.) și au condus la apariția Imperiului Roman (27 î.Hr.-476).

Situația economico-militară înainte de război
Războiul civil al lui Cezar a fost cauzat de o lungă subversiune politică a instituțiilor guvernului roman, a început cu cariera lui Tiberius Gracchus, a continuat cu reformele lui Gaius Marius a legiunilor, dictatura sângeroasă a lui Lucius Cornelius Sulla și completată de Primul Triumvirat al Romei.

Primul Triumvirat, care cuprindea pe Iulius Cezar, Crassus și Pompei, a dus la ascensiunea lui Cezar la putere și alegerea sa drept consul în 59 î.Hr..

Marc Antoniu

Marc Antoniu și-a exercitat dreptul lui de veto ca tribun, cu scopul de a preveni un decret senatorial care declara aplicarea legii marțiale împotriva dreptului de veto. Din această cauză  este expulzat cu violență din Senatul roman împreună cu un alt susținător al lui Cezar, Cassius, care era tot tribun al plebeilor. La auzul acestor știri Cezar a traversat râul Rubicon și astfel au început Războaiele civile romane (Războiul civil roman al lui Cezar). Antoniu părăsește Roma și se alătură lui Cezar și armatelor sale de la Ariminium, unde se găseau soldații lui Cezar supărați și întărâtați de ilegalitățile comise de adversarii politici ai lui Cezar. Un tribun al plebeilor trebuia să fie intangibil potrivit legii romane. Antoniu a condus în Italia, în timp ce Cezar distrugea legiunile lui Pompei în Spania în Bătălia de la Ilerda, iunie - august 49 î.Hr.

Marele război civil roman

Trecerea Rubiconului

La 10 ianuarie 49 î.Hr., conducând Legiunea a XIII-a Gemina, generalul Iulius Cezar a traversat râul Rubicon, care era granița dintre provincia Gallia Cisalpina, la nord, și Italia, la sud, o acțiune -din punct de vedere legal- interzisă oricărui general de armată. Acțiunea militară a lui Cezar a început un război civil. Acest act de război al lui Cezar împotriva Republicii Romane a dus la o aprobare pe scară largă în rândul civililor romani, care au crezut că Cezar este un erou. Documentele istorice despre acest eveniment diferă în ceea ce provesște ultima afirmație decisivă a lui Cezar făcută la trecerea Rubiconui - o sursă spune că Cezar ar fi afirmat "Iacta alea est" (tradus "Zarul este aruncat").

Shelby concerned over decreased funding request for Army
Shelby questioned top U.S. Army officials during a defense subcommittee hearing to review the president's funding request.

Alabama Senator Richard Shelby, a Republican, questioned top U.S. Army officials during a defense subcommittee hearing to review the president's funding request and budget justification for the U.S. Army.
During the hearing, Army Secretary Christine E. Wormuth and General James C. McConville, Army chief of staff, testified before the subcommittee.
"This discussion is particularly important because the Army's budget proposal reflects a two percent reduction from fiscal year 2021," Shelby said.
"The reduction is proposed despite the need to maintain readiness and make progress on key modernization priorities like the long-range hypersonic missile and improved lethality capabilities," Shelby said. "You are both very well aware that our adversaries, including China and Russia, pose new and increasing threats that erode our traditional technological and battlefield advantages. They are making unprecedented investments in their capability and capacity, and China, specifically, has a stated objective of surpassing us by the middle of the Century."
"Given that the overall funding request for the Department of Defense does not keep pace with inflation and the Army budget proposal reflects a decrease from last year, I am concerned that we are sending the wrong message to both our allies and our adversaries," Shelby said.
Congressman Mike Rogers, R-Alabama, has similarly has expressed concerns that Biden's defense cuts put the U.S. at a disadvantage given China's growing commitment to expanding its own defense budget.
Rogers — the ranking members — and other GOP members of the House Armed Services Committee recently penned a letter to President Joe Biden expressing those concerns.
"The House Armed Services Committee recently heard testimony from Admiral Charles Richard, the Commander of U.S. Strategic Command, that China has moved a portion of its nuclear force to a Launch on Warning posture and has a nuclear weapons stockpile that is expected to at least double, if not triple, or quadruple, over the next decade. Based on most opensource estimates, to include those produced by the Department of Defense, this could bring size of the deployed Chinese nuclear deterrent to approximately 1,000 warheads by 2030. Additionally, the Annual Threat Assessment (ATA) as presented to the Congress by DNI Haines earlier this year stated that China is fielding a full Cold War-style triad of nuclear assets — intercontinental ballistic missiles, nuclear-armed bombers and submarines capable of launching ballistic missiles. China's ballistic missile arsenal is 'more survivable, more diverse, and on higher alert than in the past, including nuclear missile systems designed to manage regional escalation and ensure an intercontinental second-strike capability.' Combined, these statements by Admiral Richard and Director Haines mean that China is likely to reach a degree of nuclear parity with the United States by the end of the decade."
Shelby is the vice chairman of the Senate Committee on Appropriations and its subcommittee on defense. Shelby has represented the people of Alabama in the U.S. Senate since 1987. Prior to that, he represented the people of Alabama's 7th Congressional District in the House of Representatives for four terms and the people of Tuscaloosa County in the Alabama Senate for two terms. Shelby has announced that he is retiring when his current term in the Senate ends.

The Toyota IMV platform is an automobile platform for SUVs, pickups/light trucks and passenger cars from Toyota. The name "IMV" stands for "Innovative International Multi-purpose Vehicle". It uses a ladder frame chassis construction.

IMV platform-based vehicles are either rear-wheel drive or four-wheel drive (can be either full-time or rear-based part-time). The front suspension is independent double-wishbone, while the rear suspension is half-dependent. Engines are mounted longitudinally.

History
The IMV Project was first announced by Toyota in 2002. The project aimed to develop and produce pickup trucks, a minivan and an SUV outside Japan to reduce costs. The vehicles were released in 2004 as the seventh-generation Hilux, first-generation Innova and first-generation Fortuner respectively.

Initial production of IMV vehicles were centered in Thailand, Indonesia, Argentina and South Africa, which would supply vehicles to countries in Asia, Europe, Africa, Oceania, Latin America and the Middle East in a complete form or by knock-down kits. The production of major components were divided, for example diesel engine production were centered in Thailand, petrol engines in Indonesia and manual transmissions in the Philippines and India.

Cumulative sales reached 1 million vehicles in 2006, 2 million in 2008, 3 million in 2009, 4 million in 2010, and 5 million in March 2012.

IMV 0

The IMV 0 is a single-cab pickup concept that was presented on 14 December 2022 in Thailand based on the IMV platform. It was designed and engineered by Toyota Daihatsu Engineering & Manufacturing (TDEM) in collaboration with Japanese and Australian engineering team. It is expected to be powered by a 2.4-litre 2GD-FTV diesel engine, and will be produced in 2023.

Content Marketing: A marathon you'll always win.
Adding content to your site is one primary way to get, and keep, Google's attention. Google identifies active sites and will index them on a regular basis for new material. Content is essential, as long as your customer, or potential customer, wants to read it. If a viewer clicks on your website and finds value in your words, they will stay on your site and share it with others. This ultimately sends a huge message to the search engines, such as Google, that your website should be ranked higher on the search results page. The content doesn't have to be a research paper or overly complex. It does need to be succinct, to the point and formatted in the appropriate way.
For example, a customer should be able to initially scan the page, quickly and easily finding certain headers and key words that interest them, and then spend time reading the material that is most relevant to them. The process of formatting your content is directly related to your customer's user experience (UX) and is part of any website, or landing page, we help develop. But it's not just the format of the article, but high quality information as well.
Google April 15th you have to kowtow to uncle Sam (???), if you want your web presence to be found by your target customer you must kowtow to Google's search algorithm. Google is the 800 pound gorilla and it's a moving target. But Google's gorilla loves content so as of today "Content is Still King".
Adding content to your site has never been easier with Content Management Systems (CMS) like WordPress, which is still very effective with the search engines. However, content marketing still takes planning and creative writing that we offer here at Campaign Hawks. Since your ranking on search engines, like Google, are so heavily based upon good content, a comprehensive digital strategy should include the constant development of new articles and blogs, for example.
Campaign Hawks writes articles to be published on your site, or other influencing sites, along with videos, blogs, and social media posts. Think of content development as seeds being planted. If the seed isn't good, it won't yield results. Content has to be written or developed for you potential customers - something they need, want to read, and will digest. Your customer is smart enough to recognize bad content, and so is Google.

Q: Service invoked too many times: trigger We are trying to implement a suite of spreadsheets that will handle budget figures for a set of stores. Everything works fine until we try to implement a spreadsheet that will collect data from all store spreadsheets and present statistics. Due to the limitation of ImportRange, of a maximum of 50 uses per spreadsheet doc, we have been implementing a Google docs script instead to handle the importing of data. But now when we have made a copy of the document to have one for each month, we are getting problems with our time triggers. We have setup a trigger to run the script once every minute and that results in an error message stating; Service invoked too many times: trigger.
What are the limitations here? And how do we best solve this?
We are also getting some other error messages and would like to know how to solve these;

*

*Document tEHGO48zIBIFYRpb7Xhjwqg is missing (perhaps it was deleted?) (line 191)

*Exceeded maximum execution time

*Service error: Spreadsheets (line 290)

Where can we find documentation describing the different limitations and error messages?

A: Quota Limits for many services used with Google Apps Scripts have now been published on the Dashboard at:
https://docs.google.com/macros/dashboard

A: Just happened the same to me. It seems there is a non-published limit:

Premier accounts usually have larger quotas for every limitation.
  The argument is that the account is better verified and less likely to exploit to resources.
But neither the regular limitations or Premier's better quotas are published by Google. And it seems that Googlers can't say it here in the forums either. The only well defined GAS limitation is the email quota, accessible through:
  MailApp.getRemainingDailyQuota()
  Which is 500 for regular accounts and 1500 for Premier.
Source: Google Support forums

Solutions are:

*

*Join several scripts into one big trigger in case there is a limit in number of triggers

*Optimize code (join loops, refresh only the necessary fields, etc.) in case it is based in CPU usage

*Move minute timer triggers to OnEdit or OnOpen triggers whenever possible

*Get a Premium Account

For your other errors, I haven't encountered any similar. You should post some details on the script or publish some code so we can debug it.

In the middle of the 16th century there was one last sugar plantation on the island, located in Adeje, fuelled by the waters of the Barranco del Infierno. This plantation was situated where the Casa Fuerte building now stands and it was the most important sugar plantation in Tenerife. In 1553, Pedro Ponte ordered the construction of a fortification to defend the area from the continuous pirate invasions that assaulted the Costa Adeje. In 1555, it was authorised and in 1556 a stronghold was built: over the course of the next three centuries it would become the political, economic and social centre of the Adeje region under the rule of the Ponte family.
