If Conditions Are Right, Will Most People Steal?
Zein Scott
A study of long-term data on theft shows that most thieves tend to be bumbling teenagers with little motivation and little money to steal. In other words, they're largely a waste of time and resources. The good news is that there are treatments.
An irresistible urge to steal
If you suspect you have a condition called kleptomania, it's important to see a healthcare provider for an evaluation. Treatment is usually a combination of psychotherapy and medication. The former will help address the causes and triggers, while the latter balances brain chemistry.
People who steal do so for various reasons. They may steal items they don't need or don't want to own or steal from acquaintances or friends. The items they steal are often discarded or given away or returned secretly. The urge to steal may come and go or increase over time. The urge to steal is usually followed by feelings of elation and pleasure after the theft. This is different from anger, delusions, or guilt, which can often accompany stealing behavior.
A person with kleptomania has a strong urge to steal, even if they don't need the item. They may feel relieved after stealing the item but may not want to return to the habit. They may also experience shame and self-loathing after the theft. These episodes are usually unplanned and uncontrollable and can be very difficult to resist.
Kleptomania is a rare mental health condition. Although people with this condition are aware that they are doing wrong, they cannot stop themselves from stealing. As a result, kleptomania is a serious medical condition that has significant consequences for the sufferer. Those with this disorder are at high risk of legal and relationship problems and even suicide. Fortunately, treatment is possible.
Kleptomania is an impulse control disorder. The person suffers from a sudden, overwhelming, and uncontrollable urge to steal. The temptation is so strong that the person feels guilty after the theft. However, they eventually pay for the items they stole.
If the conditions are right for someone with kleptomania, many treatment options are available. These treatments can include prescribed medications and psychotherapy. Kleptomania is a mental health disorder characterized by the inability to resist the urge to steal. The person who suffers from this disorder is aware of the consequences of stealing but cannot resist the urge. Although the person may try to stop stealing, the urge to steal is too powerful.
While there are no cures for kleptomania, treatment options can help people who want to stop stealing. Psychological treatments include cognitive-behavioral therapy, which focuses on identifying triggers and helping people stop damaging behaviors. Another treatment option is covert sensitization, which involves imagining the negative consequences of stealing. Drugs like serotonin reuptake inhibitors can balance the brain's opioid systems.
If children continue to steal, their behavior may be an indication of a more serious emotional or behavioral problem. For example, the child may have problems at home or may be suffering from a genetically-determined disorder. They may also experience trust issues and may blame others for their actions. Often, stealing is motivated by a need for money, and it can lead to further emotional distress.
Although there is no cure for kleptomania, there are several proven treatments. Most commonly, individual psychotherapy will be recommended. During this therapy, the individual will learn how to curb their urges to steal. Other medications, such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, can also be used to curb the urge to steal.
Treatment for stealing is available when the condition is diagnosed early enough. People who suffer from kleptomania should seek professional help for the disorder and stop stealing. The condition is not contagious and should not be regarded as a criminal offense. If you have a family member who suffers from this disorder, it is important to get them help.
Signs of kleptomania
If you suspect a loved one may suffer from kleptomania, you should not hesitate to seek professional help. Though there is currently no cure for kleptomania, treatments may include talking therapies and medications. While the exact cause of kleptomania is unknown, it is believed to be related to differences in the structure of the brain, particularly inhibitions and impulse control. Some people may have weaker connections in the brain that make them more prone to stealing.
Generally, the first signs of kleptomania occur in adolescence or early adulthood. However, one-third of people with kleptomania experience symptoms as children. In some cases, symptoms begin as early as five years old. Treatment is available for people of all ages.
Kleptomania is a psychological disorder that can seriously impact a person's life. Individuals with this disorder steal an item of little or no value, often from friends and family members. These individuals also tend to steal in public places, and their impulses are hard to control.
If you suspect a loved one has kleptomania, speak with your physician or therapist. Be honest and open with your doctor. They are not there to judge but to help you get the help you need. A mental health professional can recommend medication, psychotherapy, and therapy sessions to help you overcome the disorder.
Treatment for kleptomania depends on the symptoms' severity and the disorder's severity. A patient suffering from kleptomania should identify the triggers and seek treatment for other conditions. In addition, the patient should learn to channel their urges through activities such as hobbies, exercise, and relaxation techniques. The patient should also develop a supportive network of people who can help them deal with their symptoms.
When the conditions are right, most people will steal things for pleasure. Unlike mania, kleptomania is not caused by a strong emotional response or hallucinations. Instead, it is caused by an intense desire to fit in and be a part of society.
How common is it for people to steal?
According to the statistic that 1 in 11 Americans steal from stores, shoplifting is the most frequent crime in the US. Each year, both the quantity of stolen products and the proportion of shoplifters rise. Additionally, the percentage of shoplifters is rising globally.
Is it normal for people to steal?
Due to their inability to make ends meet, some people steal. Some people steal just for the rush, while others do it to make up for a physical or emotional gap in their lives. Jealousy, low self-esteem, or peer pressure are all potential motivators for stealing. Stealing can also be a result of social concerns like feeling alienated or unappreciated.
What percentage of Americans steal?
Over 30 million Americans, or about 10% of the population, shoplift on a regular basis (whether daily, weekly, monthly or on annual basis). The frequency of shoplifting is about the same for men, women, boys, and girls, however most shoplifters are adults rather than children or teenagers.
What do thieves steal the most?
Anything valuable you have at home, including electronics, high-end apparel, weapons, and even furniture, is a target for burglars. If these things are available to everyone, a thief might take them. Fortunately, there are many strategies you can use to prevent a break-in from taking your personal belongings.
What age group steals the most?
In all, 66.6 percent of shoplifters were under the age of 30, 6.2 percent were under the age of 12, 26.7 percent were between the ages of 12 and 17, and 33.7 percent were between the ages of 18 and 29.
Is stealing genetic?
Experts are uncertain as to whether kleptomania may be inherited or whether a family history increases your likelihood of developing it. There isn't conclusive proof that kleptomania is inherited, despite the fact that those who have it frequently have a family history of other mental health issues, particularly anxiety, mood, and substance use disorders.

My week in photos  My bargain Ercol chairs, yay!
Scary how fast that came along.
I'm so glad Neil and I managed to get our annual autumnal photo sesh in before the leaves disappear. If you missed that, read my latest post – The autumnal photoshoot.
To think, 2 weeks ago I was prancing around the woods in a thin poncho and jeans, and now it's the biggest cold snap ever down here in Brighton.
It's been a productive week though. Are you ready?
First, I snapped up some gorgeous Ercol-inspired dining chairs from Gumtree. I saw them being sold at £25 each by a local dealer and couldn't message the him fast enough to buy them. Ercol chairs usually sell for £250+ each! Ok they aren't the Ercol brand but they're sturdy, great quality and will go well in our new shaker style kitchen when the renovation kicks off in 2017.
Last weekend was a mix of DIY days and a Christmassy garden centre trip. I threw on a pile of jumpers and painted the door frame inside and out. Sanding, priming and a couple of paint coats. It was a surprising amount of work for such a small area as it's really fiddly, but overall really glad with the job. The exterior door was painted by Neil before it was hung. I was dead impressed by how well he did it :) We chose a gorgeous Platinum Sage colour by Valspar (highly recommend their exterior paint) and the inside of the door is all Wimborne White to match the trim of the whole house. You know I adore Farrow and Ball!
Our favourite place to hang out these days is the garden centre (are we sad??) Specifically the South Downs Heritage Centre just before you turn off towards Clayton in Sussex. The place is amazing. Especially now it's wall to wall Christmas lights and decos!
The beginning of the week always starts well for me, with coffee shop interior inspiration and planning sessions with my work team. This coffee shop is Plenty, a skip away from our HQ in Brighton. It's got a proper industrial but warm, throw together appeal to it with huge floor to ceiling windows. I do love it there.
...and we hired a (really crap) painter to come do the hallway.
What's on this weekend...? Hmm well, Neil and I initially planned a cosy one with Christmas decorating to be done, but it looks like we will spend most of it correcting the paint job in our hallway. Boo. But I am very excited for the week ahead as I'll be up in London staying with my sister to do a short course with the KLC School of Design studying everything interiors, I can't wait to share what I learn, and a PR Class with expert Janet Murray (love her work).
Wherever you are in the world, I hope you have a happy weekend!


What is the best treatment for ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder) & ADHD?
Is medication always necessary for ADD or ADHD?
ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder) & ADHD are considered brain-related disorders that usually develop during childhood (thus ADD is also known as a developmental disorder). Epidemiological studies indicate that as many as 6% of children and 5% of adults have this condition.
The most effective treatment for ADD & ADHD is usually a combination of counseling or therapy and medication.
Medication is not always necessary but is often very effective — and sometimes essential for ADD & ADHD. Stimulant medications such as Adderall, Vyvanse, and Concerta are usually the drug of choice for Attention Deficit Disorder. Counseling or therapy is almost always recommended for these disorders, with or without the use of medication.
The specialists at the Relationship Center of South Florida have the training and experience to help people with ADD & ADHD to improve their productivity, develop new coping skills, and achieve success.
The counselors and therapists at our Center primarily treat adults with ADD, along with some older adolescents. Call today for more information about our services for people with Attention Deficit Disorder.

Our new video series features prominent Texans from a variety of industries and perspectives, all speaking to the importance of high-quality, full-day pre-K to Texas students, the educational and workforce pipelines, and the future economy of Texas.
New studies have confirmed the benefits of expanded access to quality pre-kindergarten.
A meta-analysis of 22 high-quality experimental and quasi-experimental studies conducted between 1960 and 2016 found that participation in early childhood education leads to reductions in special education placement and grade retention as well as increases in high school graduation rates.
Researchers estimate pre-kindergarten investments in Tulsa have a 2-to-1 return.
Recent evaluations show quite clearly that large-scale, publicly funded pre-k programs have significant benefits for children's school readiness skills and future academic achievement. Importantly, these results come from today's state-funded pre-k programs, operated at scale in various states across the country.
Our guide provides summaries to the most current and comprehensive Texas-specific research about public school pre-kindergarten programs and early learning outcomes across the state.

Nature Climate Change, 8, 325–332
The 2015 Paris Agreement calls for countries to pursue efforts to limit global-mean temperature rise to 1.5 °C. The transition pathways that can meet such a target have not, however, been extensively explored. Here we describe scenarios that limit end-of-century radiative forcing to 1.9 W m−2, and consequently restrict median warming in the year 2100 to below 1.5 °C. We use six integrated assessment models and a simple climate model, under different socio-economic, technological and resource assumptions from five Shared Socio-economic Pathways (SSPs). Some, but not all, SSPs are amenable to pathways to 1.5 °C. Successful 1.9 W m−2 scenarios are characterized by a rapid shift away from traditional fossil-fuel use towards large-scale low-carbon energy supplies, reduced energy use, and carbon-dioxide removal. However, 1.9 W m−2 scenarios could not be achieved in several models under SSPs with strong inequalities, high baseline fossil-fuel use, or scattered short-term climate policy. Further research can help policy-makers to understand the real-world implications of these scenarios.

One Step Forward, One Step Back:ISAF Rulings Impact Sailing's Media Future
"First Beat" from our November 13 /SW eNewsletter/.
FirstBeatISAF
The most significant topic at this year's annual International Sailing Federation conference in Helsinki, Finland, was the creation of a world cup of sailing. According to the press releases on ISAF's website, the council held "lengthy discussions" on Saturday, the final day of the conference. Fortunately, for sailing, the proposal passed.The World Cup will group six of the world's biggest Olympic-class regattas (Sail Melbourne, Rolex Miami OCR, Princess Sofia Trophy, Semaine Olympique Francaise (aka Hyeres Week), Holland Regatta (formerly SPA Regatta), and Kiel Week) into one grand circuit. In addition to standardizing the scoring, sailing instructions, and some of the branding of each event, the ISAF World Cup circuit should make it easier for mainstream media to cover the sport by clearly indicating which events are the most important in terms of Olympic-class competition. Throughout sports, the term "world cup" has become synonymous with the top of the competition pyramid; it's only natural that sailing adopts it as well.What is less clear at this time is what sort of incentive will be used to get athletes to hit all six events, or as many as possible. Will there be an overall title, a cash prize at the end of the year? Will the events have a greater impact on ISAF rankings than other Category 1 regattas? Traveling to the four events in Europe is a fairly simple exercise as each occurs in the spring or early summer. However, the 2007 schedule has the Sail Melbourne Regatta taking place Jan. 15 to 20, and the Rolex Miami OCR, Jan. 21 to 27. Obviously it's near impossible to compete in both events, which somewhat undermines the value of either being part of the circuit.Nonetheless, the World Cup is a good idea and should make it easier for sailors and general sports fans to follow Olympic-class sailing in the years between Olympic Games. For more on the decision, click here.No New Olympic Classes For NowWhile the ISAF World Cup is clearly a step in the right direction, the Council's decision to defer Submission No. 79 is not. This submission would've opened up options for new Olympic classes by deleting Regulation 16.1.6, which is a list of classes ISAF can use for the Olympics and Regional Games. Included on this list are all the Olympic classes, and a host of "classics" like the Sunfish, Fireball, H-boat, J/24, Hobie 16, and Snipe. The reason given for the deferral, according to ISAF, is that deleting the regulation would have "undesirable affects (sic) of (sic) the Regional Games." While we support the use of classes like the J/24 and the Lightning in events like the Pan Am Games, this regulation stands in the way of sailing embracing modern technology and equipment for Olympic competition. Just three of the 11 current Olympic classes were designed after 1980.As has long been expected, the International Olympic Committee reduced the number of gold medals for sailing in the 2012 Olympics from 11 to 10. This presents an excellent opportunity to shake up and modernize the Olympic regatta. Eliminating 16.1.6 is the first step. That the ISAF Council chose not to take it is discouraging and portends an ugly political fight and an outcome that does little to increase sailing's appeal to mainstream media, crucial for the sport's Olympic future.ISAF will choose disciplines for the 2012 Olympics in the United Kingdom at its 2007 conference; the organization will select equipment for those games in 2008.To read the submissions, click here.For Stuart Streuli's three-part report on Olympic class reform, click here.Other ISAF RulingsThe official minutes of the meeting are not yet available, however, most other submissions were procedural and, whether approved, dismissed, or deferred, are not likely to have a significant impact on the sport at large. There are a few decisions worthy of note:• The Musto Performance Skiff (speaking of modern high-performance craft worthy of the Olympics) and the X-35 keelboat both received ISAF Recognized Status, while the RS:X (the current Olympic sailboard) and the RS Feva were approved as International Classes.• Submission 64 was approved, opening up the possibility of a media-friendly course with a slalom type finish for the Olympic windsurfers. This might stir more interest if there was a legitimate chance of sailing in more than 6 knots of breeze in Qingdao. A windsurfing slalom in sub-planning conditions isn't any better than a windward/leeward course.• The 2008 Women's Match Racing Championships will take place in Auckland, New Zealand, while the 2009 Team Racing Champsionships will take place in Perth, Australia.


Iran's biggest-selling newspaper has waded into the Muhammad controversy by launching a competition to find the 12 "best" cartoons about the Holocaust.
Farid Mortazavi, graphics editor for Tehran's Hamshahri newspaper, said that the deliberately inflammatory contest would test out how committed Europeans were to the concept freedom of expression.
Do correct my faulty memory, but hasn't the Iranian government denied the Holocaust happened?
What would they submit in the way of a cartoon?
Yes, but you may not be able to run your Iranian car without Iranian oil...lets boycott their oil!
Nice one Con. :ok: They always need to be reminded but tis shame they don't read prune.
Still, you're lucky your magic (Persian) carpet has no moving parts.
Screw their oil, let's keep stealing Iraq's!! That'll learn 'em.
Funnily enough we don't need Iraq's oil yet as the UK produces as much oil(roughly) as Iraq does and we're still a net exporter of oil.
Okay, I got the scoop. My wife's, cousin's, boyfriend's, nephew's, sister's, hairdress's, sister's, son's, uncle's, next door neighbor's, gardener's, father's maid living in Turkey friend's, doctor's, nurse's husband living in Hati says we don't.
con-pilot, you will be astonished to learn that there is such a thing as the Iranian motor-car! Until Friday 22nd. April 2005, it was the Iran Khodro 'Paykan' - a licence-built Hillman Hunter. (Hillman was a UK subsidiary of Chrysler.) It was in production in Iran for forty years. I drove one in Teheran in 1971, and by the standards of the time it was OK. Don't know what has replaced it.
Can I keep my stash of Iranian Caviar ?
Given the degree of religious observance in the UK, the cartoons will probably be greeted with an underwhelmed shrug, and since the youth in this country are no longer taught relevant or recent history, I don't think they'll be 'bovvered'.
I worry about the tone of your note diginagain, here in the UK we should actively celebrate the fact that folks can give an "underwhelmed shrug", or that folks can't be "bovvered". That is the point after all. Freedom of choice and expression, something that is sadly lacking in so many countries (and not just the obvious ones!).
Precisely my point, goshdarnit; in the UK we take our hard-fought and hard won freedoms for granted. Having served for so long to ensure these freedoms are there to be enjoyed, I get somewhat hacked off by the prevalence of the attitudes displayed.


Sparks is the band to listen to if you're looking for an all-in-one auditory experience: pop, rock and alternative. The Mael brothers from LA have stayed strong since starting out in the 70s, producing top hits such as "This Town Ain't Big Enough For Both Of Us" and "Never Turn Your Back on Mother Earth." In 2015, Sparks collaborated with Franz Ferdinand, creating a new supergroup called FFS. Their latest album, and first in nearly a decade, Hippopotamus, is catchy and bouncier than ever, maintaining their legacy after decades of great music. They will be at Club Quattro in Shibuya for a show you wouldn't want to miss.


Why Not Blog?: Why not blog 101?
Had conferences today with half my English 1000 students. A nice bunch, with many cool paper ideas this go round (I love, for instance, the paper about how mothering is considered "natural" and so isn't recognized as work, the flip side of Weber's talk about how capitalism regards itself as "natural," though that ethic too is learned. Sure, Weber was a yawn and a struggle, but it finally clicked and generated new ideas.) First conference was with M, the only one in the class who had heard of blogs before I introduced them last month. Had a pretty good paper, but he's been contributing wonderful, multi-faceted posts to the class blog. So I say something like this to him, and he says, well, that's because he has his own blog and is used to blogging. Which makes me think, hmm. Why not turn English 1000 into an all-blogging all the time class? Students get a blog, hook up to bloglines, select blogs that connect with their interests, and write. Maybe turn some ideas into something else, something that could be more "traditional." But, yeah, just blog.
But, really, I'm thinking next time individual blogs and blogrolling will be a requirement. See how it goes.
Cause, as I told student M and as I told my 8010 class and as I told Marcia, I'm loving it. I'm loving the generative push of blogging. I'm loving the way it forces me to not just think but do something with that thinking, that makes me think more. And isn't that generative thinking process exactly what rhetorical invention is all about?
So thanks, Marcia. Thanks, Collin. Thanks to all you bloggers over there on the right who unknowingly served as inspiration. Thanks for getting me going.
I'm so glad you're enjoying blogging and appreciate its pedagogical value.
Did you see the comment Russell made on my study skills post? He went in a different direction and connected what I linked to in an original way. Way cool! And, Kristina started posting to her blog as an invention activity.
I wonder what percentage of first-year composition students live on campus in dorms. Dorms have ethernet access. There are over 30 computing sites on campus and they even offer support till 4:00 a.m. during the week. Amazing. Ellis Library has that new information commons and students can even check out a laptop for 3 hours to use anywhere in the library. Plus, for students who do have personal laptops, almost the entire campus is wireless enabled.
I'm considering a technology and society theme for my English 1000 class next semester and I want to use blogs. I'd like to talk more with you about concerns/issues and possibly see if I can get assigned to a computer classroom.

When the General Assembly is asked to entertain or introduce a bill that affects the citizens of a municipality, the legislative delegation assumes that the municipality's leaders are in 100 percent agreement with the terms of the request. Otherwise, they would not want to risk alienating their constituents, and no one ever wants to be on the wrong side of bad legislation.
Both City and County officials need to stop bragging publicly about how well they cooperate with each other and instead start demonstrating it. Actions (or inactions) always speak louder than words. They should demonstrate it by amicably settling the sales tax distribution issue; sensibly consolidating our 911 emergency call centers; supporting and encouraging each other's economic development projects; and showing support for the Greater Fayetteville Chamber, the Downtown Alliance, the Fayetteville Convention, the Visitors Bureau and all other organizations whose mission is to promote and enhance the community. Visitors and prospective businesses and industries looking at us from the outside are not stupid, and they are not impressed. We must stop demonstrating that we are a community conflicted and fortified within personal agenda silos with a toxic contempt for and distrust of one another. Under these circumstances, you can be assured they will not locate here regardless of how many incentives or perks we offer them.
These corporate entities and prospective clients pay more attention to what they can see rather than what they hear. They look around our community and observe the condition of our downtown, the cleanliness of our streets and the availability of cultural amenities, but, more importantly, they look at our leadership and pay attention to the way our leaders interact with and react to one another. If we are not in harmony, and if the sense of disharmony is too conspicuous, you can be pretty much assured these prospective clients will not have the confidence to do business with us or to bring their companies here, investing millions of dollars in our community.
Both City and County officials need to be more sensitive to these factors. Together, they need to ask the same questions and heed the answers: Is our community clean? Is it safe? Are our parks and public areas well groomed? In other words, what image are we projecting? Are we taking pride in our community? Many of the things that will enhance Fayetteville and Cumberland County's image and move us forward are things that don't cost money. Cooperation, respect and civility just to name a few.
This is a very exciting time for our community and much is at stake. Let's not let egos, turf battles and power plays diminish our opportunities. We have so much to gain through cooperation. Let's get on with it. The time is now. Thank you for reading Up & Coming Weekly.

Reino de Quenedugu (c. 1650–1898; ) foi um Estado da África Ocidental pré-colonial estabelecido na porção sul do atual Mali. Sob Babemba Traoré , o limite sul do reino ficava em Bodiadugu, no cantão de Tengrela, na atual Costa do Marfim. Surge como reino independente por influência dos irmãos Nianamaga e Tiemonconco. Sua autoridade foi consolidada sob Daulá, que conduz campanhas militares contra regiões vizinhas e guerreira contra Congue.

História

Origens

No , Quenedugu era uma extensão longínqua do Império de Congue centrado em Sicasso e comandado pela dinastia Traoré de senufôs islamizados. Sua organização ca. 1825 como reino era reflexo do poder de Congue e provável mimetismo face aos mandês. Em Quenedugu, assim como em Congue e Bobo, o modus vivendi era de tolerância, permitindo a adeptos do islã, muitas vezes ligados a atividades comerciais, conviverem com os adeptos das religiões tradicionais. Desde o reinado do fama Nianamaga Traoré foi decidido que a sucessão seria feita por ordem de primogenitura, com intercalação de membros do ramo mais velho (ramo de Nianamaga) com os do mais jovem (de seu irmão Tiemonconco).

Reinado de Daulá

Daulá, sucessor de Tiemonconco, herda de seus antecessores um contínuo conflito com Congue. Seu tio Siramanadiã, que residia em Congue, mediou negociações de paz entre ele e Pigueba Uatara, antigo rival de seu pai Nianamaga, mas ao achar suspeitas as ações do tio, não compareceu ao encontro. O evento, ocorrido ca. 1850, termina com seus 12 irmãos e sua escolta sendo atacados por soldados armados com machados próximo a Zanso; nenhum deles sobreviveu. Assustado, Daulá abandona Bugula e vai para junto dos habitantes de Natié.

Pigueba dirigiu-se à localidade, onde exigiu que os habitantes entregassem o fugitivo, mas eles responderam que ninguém viu o rei; Daulá fugiu à noite para Tarcasso, próximo de Caboila, onde alguns guerreiros de Natié uniram-se a ele. Os soldados de Tarcasso e Natié marcharam com ele contra Fincolo, onde Pigueba estava estacionado, e derrotam-o. Daulá decide ocupar Zerila, onde no ano seguinte foi assediado por Pigueba. Com medo de ser capturado, tenta uma saída heroica na qual seu arauto que o precede morre. De Zerila, vai para Lutana, uma aldeia perto de Sonodugu, onde reuniu-se com Pigueba; Pigueba contentou-se em levar metade da população cativa. Esse evento, de ca. 1855, marca o temporário fim da rivalidade de Congue de Quenedugu.

Com essa vitória diplomática, retorna a Bugula, que cerca com grandes muros, e começa uma série de guerras. Sua primeira expedição é conduzida em 1856 contra Capolondugu, onde destrói as aldeias de Capolondugu e Doromosso, mata os idosos, vende as mulheres e crianças como escravos e alista os jovens. Com medo de represálias, representantes de todas as tribos vizinhas aparecem diante dele em submissão. Ao conseguir fácil vitória, volta com seus homens para Bugula, onde celebra. Um mês depois, retoma a marcha em direção a Tiola, capital de Ganadugu. Para repeli-lo, o chefe de Tiola agrupou todas as aldeias aliadas do interior, mas muitos capitularam e os assediados sofreram uma derrota retumbante e os homens de Daulá ficaram no país saqueando as vilas. Sua ação foi tão brutal que os colonizadores, décadas depois, ao perguntarem sobre ele, perceberam que seu nome causava espanto.

Em 1857, Metura de Tieré pediu a ajuda de Daulá para castigar a aldeia de Tosso, que havia se revoltado contra sua autoridade. Daulá e seus homens rapidamente esmagaram a vila. Uma semana depois, Daulá atravessou o rio Banifingue e ao chegar em Sugula conheceu o chefe de Cutienebugu que informou-o suas dificuldades com a aldeia de Surunto ou Sugunto. A aldeia foi cercada por um ano e seus habitantes, extenuados pelas circunstâncias, abandonam a vila e dirigem-se a Pela, para onde Daulá os persegue. Dali, foram perseguidos para Gana antes de se renderem e foram executados. Depois, ele seguiu marcha para Nianeguela, onde os habitantes não resistem e entregam muitos presentes.

A grande vila de Cuguolo mostrou-se hostil e foi atacada, com todos os idosos e indefesos sendo decapitados. Depois, Daulá seguiu para Sanzana, onde a população, temerosa, decide pagar alto preço e é poupada. Em 1859, Daulá impõe cerco a Dumanaba, cujo chefe chama as aldeias insubordinadas de Ganadugu para ajudar. Ao chegarem, a maioria dos aldeões se espanta e decide não lutar e teriam exclamado "Que bom matar-nos, eles dizem, não somos homens livres?". Isso levou Dumanaba a capitular e a população foi quase totalmente massacrada. Mulheres e crianças foram vendidas, com exceção de algumas meninas enviadas para Bugula para serem distribuídas entre os membros da família Traoré. Ao retornar para Bugula, Daulá ataca Fincolo, que em sua ausência teve intenções hostis, e todas as cabanas de palha são incendiadas.

Já idoso, Daulá não mais deixa Bugula, onde faleceu cerca de 1860. Em vida, entre 1850 e 1860, Daulá consolidou seu poder com pequenas chefaturas senufôs. Alguns autores atribuem-lhe importante derrota em Uleni nas mãos da coalizão uatara, tiefo e bobô-diúla sob o fagama Baco Moru . Segundo o Dicionário Histórico de Burquina Fasso, essa derrota ocorreu na década de 1860 e no episódio teria perdido sua esposa, uma irmã e Tiebá, que foi capturado.

De Daulá a Babemba

Seja como for, em 1860 Daulá é sucedido por Daúda, filho de Tiemonconco. Tinha caráter muito pacífico e os chefes perceberam que não tinha energia para comandar. Um ex-cativo de Segu, Fafá, enviou seu povo a Bugula para desafiá-lo. Daúda respondeu tomando ação contra os invasores. Ele não consegue dar cabo de Fafá, que então conduz incursões em Ganadugu. Por sua inação, em 1862 Molocunanfá, filho mais velho de Daulá, fez uma revolução palaciano que provocou a dissensão de seus sofás e cativos e parte de sua família. Para recuperar parte de seu prestígio, sitiou a aldeia de Tieni, mas falou miseravelmente, o que fez com que seus últimos seguidores o abandonassem. Não teve coragem de retornar para Bugula e partiu a Bobo Diulasso, onde morreu cerca de 1892.

Seu sucessor foi Molocunanfá. Logo ao assumir o comando, entrou em guerra com Fafá. Seu filho de 10 anos, Sambatiemoro, foi levado cativo de Prempa. Tempos depois, seu irmão Tiebá capturou o filho de Fafá e leva-o a Sicasso, o que impeliu Fafá a entrar em negociação para libertá-lo; Sambatiemoro foi então libertado. Em 1865, a revoltosa aldeia de Tezanadugu foi castigada e arrasada por Molocunanfá. Então se dirigiu a Cumbala, onde quis remover o rebanho local, mas recebeu o tiro de um fuzil de um pastor, que feriu-o mortalmente. Como o corpo estava se decompondo muito rápido, decidiu-se que seria sepultado em Clela, onde há seu túmulo. Ao saber das notícias, Tiebá, que estava à época em Segu concluindo uma aliança com Alhaji Omar Tal , retornou com pressa para Bugula.

Ao tornar-se fama em 1866, Tiebá iniciou uma guerra implacável contra as terras senufôs no atual Burquina Fasso, declarando serem territórios de Quenedugu. Tiebá confirma a autoridade de Quenedugu desde 1875 ao se aliar aos franceses. Ele se aliou aos quiembagas de  e conseguiu com sucesso repelir o cerco de Samori Turé em Sicasso de 1887-1888. Em 1888, 1891 e 1892, fez campanha contra os samogôs, turcas e caraboros, mas foi derrotado em 1890 perante Sinematiali. Em 18 de janeiro de 1893, foi envenenado em Bama, 31 quilômetros ao norte de Bobo Diulasso. Seu sucessor, Babemba Traoré, conduziu raides frequentes ao sul e oeste de Bobo Diulasso. Também construiu uma muralha protetora em sua capital Sicasso, cujas ruínas ainda são visíveis. Em 1898, quando os franceses tentaram forçar uma guarnição em Sicasso, Babemba cometeu suicídio. O país foi tomado em maio.

When Your President Calls You a Murderer
Culture & Conversation Abortion
Feb 6, 2019, 7:57am T.S. Mendola
I have had a third-trimester abortion. And I am not alone.
President Donald Trump turned from describing children as the "holy image of God" to pronouncing—in the same oddly emotional tone of voice—that the "final part of my agenda is to protect America's national security."
Doug Mills-Pool/Getty Images
It's a hell of a thing to hear your president call you a murderer.
That's not quite the whole picture, though, of what President Donald Trump did to later abortion patients during the State of the Union speech Tuesday night. After he invoked the Madonna, a "beautiful image of a mother holding her infant child," women abruptly vanished for the rest of the time he took to throw enough red meat to the anti-choice base to keep money from the evangelical coffers flowing. Instead, we disappeared into the "womb" from which "beautiful" babies are "ripped moments before birth;" we are nothing more than the "womb" in which "children … can feel pain."
And then, mission accomplished, the president turned from describing children as the "holy image of God" to pronouncing—in the same oddly emotional tone of voice—that the "final part of my agenda is to protect America's national security."
It wasn't an accident that his plea for the control—the security—of the nation's wombs got shoved up next to the legacy of the military-industrial complex. We are mere ciphers of mothers, of women, of humans to be secured in the fight for an "America First" jingoism that has members of Congress chanting "USA! USA! USA!" like deluded fascist schoolboys, stars in their eyes.
But we are here, and we are not wombs, and we are not ciphers, and we have had enough. Although "late-term abortion" is an unscientific term—and thus, a ban on late-term abortion could refer to a range of policies—conservative politicians have fixated on the idea of 20-week bans, themselves nothing more than part of an explicit strategy of legal incrementalism designed to end in a total ban on abortion and the enshrinement of fetal personhood in the Constitution. A 20-week, second-trimester abortion may make people deeply uncomfortable, but it does none of the things the anti-choice movement says it does: A 20-week fetus cannot feel pain and is not viable. Abortions sought after 24 weeks, which New York recently allowed in some cases, are not "moments from birth." The women who access abortions during the second half of the second trimester are compelled by a diverse and compelling set of circumstances, some of which society deems more appropriate than others.
But I am not one of these women. I have had a third-trimester abortion—in other words, an abortion after the 28th gestational week of pregnancy—and have gone on to speak about it under my own name. To my knowledge, there are only two other women who have done so in the United States. Behind us are hundreds of others across the years who cannot speak out because of stigma in their communities, because of overwhelming grief and trauma, because of shame, because of fear. In the year since my story first came out, I have (among other things) been told my uterus should be forcibly removed so I can't have more children. I have been called a bloodthirsty murderer who only wanted a "perfect" child. And I have been told that I am a selfish, murderous eugenicist for not choosing perinatal hospice rather than abortion—an accusation that rings hollow, considering that hospice, in the dystopian news cycle following the passage of the Reproductive Health Act in New York and the introduction of a similar bill in Virginia, has evidently come to mean "executing a baby after birth."
When President Trump talks about ripping "a baby from the mother's womb moments before birth," we are whom he is referencing. (As this apparently has to be said, no, babies are never aborted "moments before birth," but yes, abortions in months seven and eight do, rarely, happen.) And a year and a half after my abortion, after listening to woman after woman unburden their hearts in the relative safety of private support groups, I still do not know how to shove the tangled realities of our stories into a similarly pithy soundbite. Life and love in extremis do not lend themselves to the slogan, to the vulgar cheer of the crowd. All I have is the truth, as much of it as I can hold in my hands. And the truth is that as much as I still hurt, in the quiet everyday moments, as much as I miss the child whose face I never saw, I can find in myself no regret, no shame, and no fear.
If that makes me a monster, then perhaps this administration needs women like us to be monstrous, one of many in the arsenal of human terrors the president would apparently use to keep Americans afraid and in line. In response to such politics of fear, I have nothing to say but this, from the psalm I sang at my son's funeral: Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for Thou art with me. And I am not afraid.

Capitol Hill - Rosa Parks Statue Dedication Ceremony
Legendary civil rights activist Rosa Parks was honored on Wed. Feb 27 with a statue inside the U.S. Capitol building with a dedication ceremony attended by President Barack Obama and other notables.
On December 1, 1955, a 42 year old African-American seamstress named Rosa Parks boarded a bus in Montgomery Alabama on her way home from work. When a white man entered the bus, the driver insisted that Mrs. Parks give up her seat so that the man could sit. She refused and was arrested and convicted for violating the rules of segregation common throughout the South at that time, commonly known as the "Jim Crow" laws. Mrs. Parks appealed her conviction, formally challenging the legality of segregation. At the same time local civil rights activists started a boycott of the Montgomery bus system aided by Martin Luther King Jr. The boycott lasted 381 days until Dec. 1956 when the US Supreme Court ruled segregation illegal and Montgomery buses were integrated. The Rosa Parks incident in a profound way marked the beginning of the non-violent protest movement in support of civil rights in the United States.
The 2700 pound bronze statue of Parks now stands in Statuary Hall between those of suffragist Frances E. Willard and refrigeration and air conditioning pioneer John Gorrie.
Parks died in 2005 at the age of 92. She herself had no children but the event was attended by numerous nieces, nephews and cousins plus various dignitaries and civil rights activists.


Just finished my first game with a minor victory for parliament. What I did notice is quite a few of the leaders cannot have their stance changed on the top tab.Is this for historical reasons or a bug?
I am not exactly certain this is what you are asking, but when leaders are inactive they only can do two of the four stances. Mostly, they cannot attack.

I see my "turncoat" transformation into a pupil went unrecorded... still, I had to have some fun, even if it did cost me a few thrashings. Ah well... fun to see "how the other half live" even if it was painful.
It certainly didn't go "unrecorded" Sir, you are mentioned in despatches in the Final Assembly and party paragraph. I dunno, you just can't get the Staff these days!!

'Streets Of Rage 4' developer Dotemu acquired by Focus Home
Focus Home Interactive has acquired 77.5 per cent of the share capital in Dotemu, the developer and publisher of Streets Of Rage 4, for €38.5 million (£32.6million).
In a press release yesterday (August 5), the French publisher behind games like A Plague Tale: Innocence, SnowRunner, and Greedfall, announced its acquisition of Dotemu, referred to as "a world leader in retrogaming".
Besides bringing back classic titles through remakes or remasters, such as Windjammers, Wonderboy: The Monster's Trap, and Zombies Ate My Neighbours, Dotemu has also been responsible for reviving dormant franchises with brand new instalments or reboots, such as Streets Of Rage 4, as well as the upcoming Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge, and Metal Slug Tactics.
Streets Of Rage 4. Credit: Dotemu
"We are delighted to welcome to the Focus Home group talents such as [Dotemu CEO] Cyrille Imbert and his team, who have succeeded in making games attractive and giving them new life for millions of players around the world," said Focus Home CEO Christophe Nobileau.
The rationale behind the acquisition comes from how a significant portion of the games market is turning to retrogaming, which Dotemu has excelled in, helping to re-release old titles and developing retro-flavoured titles in-house.
According to Imbert, who will continue as Dotemu's CEO, "This new collaboration will allow Dotemu to benefit from the incontestable expertise of Focus Home Interactive's teams for the production of AA titles and therefore launch the production of future remakes or sequels on licenses of first-generation 3D consoles."
The last point indicates Dotemu's intentions to not just revisit and revive retro games from the 8-bit and 16-bit era, but also the 32-bit era, which should resonate nostalgia with another generation of players.
Elsewhere, during a "meet the team" post, EA Motive has talked about its approach to the Dead Space remake and how it will "do away" with any dated ideas to ensure the game stays relevant to a modern audience.

Hollywood, CA, United States (4E) – The hit NBC show "This Is Us," which is currently in its freshman season, has been renewed for a Season 2 and 3.
The creator of the show, Dan Fogelman , talked about the series at the Television Critics Association and he said that each season will be having 18 episodes. The show revolves around the life of three kids who are now 36-year-olds and stars Milo Ventimigila , Mandy Moore, Sterling K. Brown, Chrissy Metz, and Justin Hartley.
For the long-term series of "This Is Us," Fogelman said that he knows where the show will go and revealed that he has a number of seasons on his brain. He added that in terms of the nature of the timeline, since the series weaves in and out of the past and the future lives of the characters, Fogelman promised that they will never run out of stories.
Ventimiglia , who plays the role of Jack, added that everything about his character will be revealed when it is right to tell his story. Ventimiglia continued, "The impact that everybody feels, the kind of ripple from Jack's death is something that's going to be around for a while."

If you are too lazy to click the Google Docs link above… here's the experience of playing a DC in a nutshell.
People and their reputations were harmed in the writing of this information.
No testing or mathematics is applied.
You should obviously trust the tooltips because they are completely, 100% accurate without failure due to the "skills" of the dev team.
I do not really update the page or visit this site much for a few reasons. I would not expect many, if any answers due to being pretty busy with other stuff.
There is an invisible space after the picture please can you remove it.
Aweseomw guide. Does the debuff effect from DG stack with another DC? I see that the buff does not in your one table, but wasn't sure if the same logic applied to the debuff. Basically trying to confirm there's no reason for both DC's to use DG in a 2 DC group. Thanks!
Other than that, there is very little reason for both DCs to be running DG. The only practical reason to both running DG is, in Cradle, if you expect one or more of the DCs to fall off the edge, or if you are a support DO who has nothing better to slot.
In the former situation, the DCs can … learn to dodge. In the latter situation, why not just run DPS DO instead? DPS DO would add more to the team and speed up the run.
In regards to your guild leader, it would be possible for AC to beat DO in a soloDC situation, assuming your team has no OP with Aura Gifts and also assuming your guild leader can keep up Hallowed Ground and AA during all portions of the fight.
Though I am highly skeptical your guild leader could get 75k base Power, as it takes a ton of BiS gear to even break/get near 65k Base Power.
How did your guild leader calculate their base Power? You cannot count Bondings/Legendary bonus/Tenser's Disk/Cavalry's Warning/Protector's Camraderie or Friendship/Aura Gifts/Battle Fervor and or WoL through pet as your base Power.
Hi,i it´s not my Guildleader. It´s a Friend from the Guild. We have every Time a Pala in our Group.
give me Numbers please than i can understand it.
Though, in the guide, I never said "DO beats AC all the time". I specifically wrote that DO DC generally has the edge due to offering a similar DPS increase to that of a well geared AC, but with far less effort to play.
I specifically pointed out in the writing that at about 53,000 Base Power is the approximate breakpoint where the DPS increase of AC would be comparable to DO and any more would be greater. Your math is correct that the DPS Increase of 120,000 extra Power (from a starting point of 140,000) will equal 65% DPS increase, outstripping that of a DO's 62% from HG+TI. Throw in Exa and the DPS increase of the AC solidly beats that of a DO.
My point in the guide was for the "average" DC, rather than the BiS. For most players (especially for most players following AC guides on this site), they would struggle to get close to 53,000+ Base Power, let alone know how to target people with Exaltation. Which is why I highlighted that, for ease of playing, DO would be the better choice than AC in most situations for Module 13: less things to micromanage and the DC can focus more on keeping up EmpBtS.
Since Module 14 adds more base Power and thus makes it easier to hit the "greater than DO" breakpoint, if I ever update Eventually ™, I'll probably make the distinction clearer.
Hi i have a question. Why you don't take holy fervor in class feature for AC dc build ?

Big data analytics protecting lives of premature babies
When visiting a neonatal ward, you might find paper records of the heart rate, blood oxygen, and respiratory rate of premature and ill children, taken at hourly intervals. When Dr Carolyn McGregor AM of the University of Ontario walks into a neonatal ward, she sees the phenomenal potential for revolutionary advancements in healthcare.
The data recorded on paper represents a fraction of what monitors read. What is not recorded simply disappears, risking infant's health and wellbeing; including the ability to predict infections such as Late Onset Neonatal Sepsis (LONS). Without these predictions, one in five low birth-weight babies can die from infection.
Dr. McGregor and the team at the University of Ontario Institute of Technology have developed the Artemis platform; a system that supports the acquisition and storage of patients' physiological data streams and clinical information for real-time analytics, retrospective analysis and data mining. In collaboration with the Pawsey Supercomputing Centre, the University of Technology Sydney and the Western Australia Department of Health, Dr McGregor is bringing her work to the Australian community for the betterment of society.
In 2009, Artemis was deployed as a pilot research study to demonstrate how data collected by medical devices in hospital neonatal intensive care units (NICU) can be harnessed and utilized for new approaches to providing care to fragile premature and newborn infants.
"As a patient's condition changes, initially it can be very subtle," said Dr McGregor. "I realised that they didn't have a platform that could take in all of this data and help them to watch, and that we could learn from all of that data – things that we haven't learned before."
Artemis has supported research students in the NICUs of The Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, Ontario; Women and Infants Hospital in Providence, Rhode Island; and The Children's Hospital of Fudan University in Shanghai, China. Now, the team behind Artemis are currently collaborating with the Department of Health and the Pawsey Supercomputing Centre to implement the system in Western Australia enabling Dr McGregor to bring Artemis back to her homeland of Australia.
"Pawsey is a very large component in this work as we will be constantly streaming a lot of patient data from critical care monitors, analysing it in real-time and demonstrating the potential to provide the information back to the various healthcare workers in real-time," said Dr McGregor. "The unique nature of the computing facilities at Pawsey are very important for my work."
"Big data, stream computing and the internet of things (IoT) have the potential to bring about new game-changing approaches to healthcare," said Dr McGregor. "We can't expect healthcare facilities in urban let alone rural and remote communities to try and provide these new forms of healthcare and support all the technology."
Artemis doesn't require any local installations at hospitals, urban and remote, to access this level of healthcare, as it runs entirely on a cloud-based system; which is where the Centre's Nimbus cloud service comes in.
"Using cloud services and supercomputing, we can offer these new ways to analyse your current health state as a service," said Dr McGregor, "and we can easily scale the service to accommodate all those that we need to monitor."
As the research requires data streaming to be timely and accurate, it could not operate within the boundaries of typical supercomputers that experience down-times. With cloud computing services like Nimbus, the Centre can continue its focus on supporting research, and strengthen international collaborations through projects such as the Artemis Platform.
Artemis has been ground-breaking in its monitoring of premature children in neonatal wards internationally. The Artemis Platform cloud service can connect to bedside monitors, allowing a live stream and analysis of around 1,256 data points per second, per patient, amounting to roughly 600MB per day (as of 2012).
Artemis has significantly reduced false-positive frequencies in data collection, can diagnose different types of neonatal apnoea with 98% accuracy, preventing babies from receiving too much oxygen and reducing the risk of permanent eye damage.
This research will improve healthcare services for some of the most vulnerable lives in Western Australia's hospitals, and that's only the beginning.
"While we are initially demonstrating the approach in neonatology, this will show the potential for holistic healthcare," said Dr McGregor. "In my other collaborations, we are also working now to demonstrate how these same tools can be used for mental health as well, and also the management of physical health and wellness in space on long-range missions.
"I am demonstrating how this can be used for differential diagnosis through the use of new cognitive computing technologies."
"I think in principle the intent for this project is to start with neonatal intensive care units, but technically you can deploy this kind of system to any hospital bed," said Dr McGregor.
"Then, you start talking about a much larger system, which might, in the future, be something that needs to be developed."
