We were wandering along the High Street in Hawick, wondering where and what to eat, and lingering by a sign for "The Pickled Orange". A passerby announced that this was a great place to eat; that everything is freshly cooked; good homemade food etc. so we followed up on her recommendation for a light lunch there and headed down a narrow alley to a doorway. It was a lovely place, quite tucked away and dark, and the food was indeed very nice. However, the place was also nice for its lack of music, and for its cosy acoustic. All the other tables were taken up with ladies, lunching. The music of Scottish women talking together in a small, low-ceiling space was a nice accompaniment to lunch and I recorded the sound because it is so rare to find a place to lunch where there is no background music, and where all you can hear is the nice sound of people enjoying one another's company. EDIROL R-09 inbuilt mics for this one, another super simple recording set up.

UN Security Council Welcomes Mozambique As a New Member
Mozambique was formally welcomed to the UN Security Council on Tuesday, winning the two-year term they won unopposed in June.
In a tradition started by Kazakhstan in 2018, ambassadors from five countries, including Ecuador, Japan, Malta, Mozambique and Switzerland, placed their national flags alongside those of other members outside the council chambers on Tuesday.
Mozambique Ambassador Pedro Commissario Afonso called it a "historic date" and Swiss Ambassador Pascale Bereswil said she felt a "profound sense of humility and responsibility" as their countries celebrated their first term in the most powerful body of the UN. Malta joins for the second time, Ecuador fourth and Japan 12th.

China, France, Russia, the United Kingdom and the United States are permanent members of the group with a veto. The other ten members are elected by the 193-nation General Assembly for a two-year term. It is customized by global regions.
For many countries, winning a seat on the Council is a distinct diplomatic achievement that can raise a nation's global profile and give small nations a greater voice than they would otherwise have on key international peace and security issues of the day.
The Council deploys peacekeeping missions, can decide on sanctions and – occasionally – discuss conflicts and sticking points, but also look at current issues such as terrorism and arms control.
While many issues are permanently on the agenda, Board members can also use the platform to highlight new interests or topics of particular interest to them.
States often campaign for the council for years. About 60 countries have never held a seat since the group's creation in 1946.
The five new members replace India, Ireland, Kenya, Mexico and Norway. His term ended on December 31.

National Media Moves On from Blaming Broward County Sheriff for Failures
Taxpayer Group Makes Case for Tax Reform-Related Stock Buybacks Benefit Regular Americans
New York Times Claims President Trump Echoes Segregationist Politician George Wallace
by Accuracy In Media on April 5, 2018
The New York Times published an article comparing President Donald Trump to George Wallace, a Southern Democratic politician in the 1960s who embraced the practice of segregation between white and black Americans. Both, the Times claimed, were outspoken populists and used an angry populace against the establishment.
Townhall reported that the video said the following:
New York Times narrator: But the politics of division aren't new. Five decades ago, populist appeals fueled the rise of another controversial politician, George Wallace, whose story ended in a way no one expected.
Former New York Times reporter B. Drummond Ayres: Well, Wallace was a good politician. He knew how to play the game, and, maybe more to the point, he would use anything to play that game.
George Wallace clip: I say, segregation now, segregation tomorrow, and segregation forever!
An article that accompanied the piece, written by reporter Clyde Haberman, discussed the alleged Wallace-Trump connection even further:
Separated by as much as half a century, the two men's public lives run strikingly parallel. It's as if they drank from the same political cup: George C. Wallace, the Alabama governor who ached to become president, and Donald J. Trump, the developer and showman who made it to the top. They are bound by their streaks of opportunism and by their campaigns tailored to resentful voters brimming with the conviction that society's deck is stacked against them.
Despite media claims, securing the border, limiting immigration and voter ID are not segregationist issues and therefore, President Trump is not similar to George Wallace.

Taking Sound Design Concepts to Project Planning and Philosophy
August 30, 2016 by Sally Anne Kellaway
From Design to realisation. Sound Design concepts should exist throughout. Photo: Pexels
Sound design in VR presents any practising professional with a remarkable array of challenges as they begin, work through, and reflect on any VR projects that they work on. As designingsound.org is focussing on Pure Sound Design in the month of August, I thought I would share the approach I take to my sound design at my workplace Zero Latency. I've been working in house with Zero Latency since March 2016 (about 6 months), and have had the opportunity to establish and iterate on my own practice and pipeline. ZL has it's own caveats and challenges that it presents (our tight time frames are a big one, the multiplayer free-roam nature of the system another), but this presents an excellent opportunity to discuss the way that planning and prediction of player experience can and should impact on your sound design practice.
[perfectpullquote align="right" cite="" link="" color="" class="" size=""]… this presents an excellent opportunity to discuss the way that planning and prediction of player experience can and should impact on your sound design practise.[/perfectpullquote]
Compressed timelines mean that sound design might have to occur in-step with the rest of the game development. While this can be a sound designer's dream come true, it can make it very difficult to scope your work. When you only have 6-8 weeks to develop a project, scope and staying 'relevant to design' are critical to your time management. I'd like to share a few of my spatial and temporal planning techniques, as well as some of our general philosophy behind shaping the ZL sound experience.
Planning a VR Environment
When approaching a new VR project, the rush of ideas when discussing the concept and gameplay is a heady cocktail that can give you a push in the right direction early. Concept art, reference material and general creativity all convolve to facilitate a rapid process of sound ideation. It's easy to get wrapped up in this, but one of the best ways to allow for all of these ideas to be catalogued is to actually catalogue them. It's no secret that audio folk are excellent documenters, and with VR you can also map out your plans (as well as creating your spreadsheet).
The environmental audio (ambience) can be mapped when the level design and construction is complete, giving you a physical form to help shape the 360 degree audio world. Creating visual maps of the audio environment can help to create evenly paced (or purposefully unevenly shaped) audio environments and can help to clarify focus points that will help guide players, or help to collaborate with artists on creating elements that help enrich the player's experience of the game.
– Spatial map of Engineerium – featuring basic level features, music trigger points (purple) and sound trigger points (orange).
The environmental world of Engineerium features a huge array of visual and auditory elements to immerse the player very efficiently. With a play time of 12 minutes for this title as well, set dressing (visuals) and the ambient audio environment is hugely important to enhancing vibrancy and transporting the player quickly into the world of the game. This is true for any game, but particularly for Engineerium, the interactable world is suspended high above a vast uniform ocean, and the focus we wanted to bestow to the player meant we wanted to limit the number of interactive elements to those purely critical for the game to be completed. This meant that the world needed the implication of diverse lifeforms through the audio ambience, but at a distance which does not create an expectation to take visuals of the creatures.
The spatial work of Engineerium includes randomized and scattered animals and environmental elements, as well as the fixed "ocean" and "sky elements" and triggering points to manipulate the mix of the animal based environment with the water based environment (based on the proximity to a major water feature). This spatial plan was then layered with a spatial plan for the music, which was important for giving all elements in the audio space (to avoid competing), and was very constructive in communicating how the intensity of the music should develop (in both energy and spatially) with the composer.
– Player-centric map of audio 'zones' outlining the movement of music (relative to the player and SFX).
Macro Sound Design
[perfectpullquote align="full" cite="" link="" color="" class="" size=""]The 'macro sound design', or what some would consider the overall sound 'direction', prompts you as the designer to consider the overall feeling or experience that the players will take away from the game. [/perfectpullquote]
Players can die as often as their skill level allows, but all players essentially 'win' the game. To make this design, all interactions the player has had to be heavily curated to feel 'natural', 'powerful' or 'creative' (depending on the genre of the experience). This often means that the players need to be delivered critical information at the right time, without fail, and the audio delivery is one important element of this. For each project, defining the philosophy allows you to define how player interacts with the world, and how you will allow them to feel success and enjoyment in the experience.
Taking the example of the ZL project 'Zombie Survival', which is a 12 minute long tower defence style project where players are dropped in to a fort with the promise of a helicopter rescue at the end of the experience. In this project, there is essentially only one moment that is critical for the players to achieve 'success' – they need to board the 'platform' that the helicopter will use to lift them to safety. Knowing this, and that there would be four waves of zombies delivered to the player, the audio plan formed as follows:
Beginning (0-4 minutes) = establish audio environment and ambient intensity, use VO to establish 'survival' concept so the players can be rescued
Middle (4-10 minutes) = build intensity of audio environment, consistent build of ambient intensity, use VO to destabilise the players and introduce other deployments that get 'taken' by zombies to make them feel uneasy.
End (10-12 minutes) = peak intensity of audio environment, peak ambient intensity, introduce chopper with a passby and use persistent VO to time the rescue and direct players to success.
Using the audio to build ambient intensity, and crafting a VO script that builds tension towards the peak 'rescue' contributes to the 'frantic' and 'overwhelming' tone of the general experience, which in turn leads to a greater sense of success when the player completes the experience.
From Design Philosophy to Design Execution
A thorough spatial plan for the audio of a project makes the initial sound design and implementation a matter of iteration and certainly gives you the opportunity to develop your direction and purpose for the overall sound design of your project. Planning a design philosophy around the player's resulting experience does cue you to start considering the way in which the player's potential interactions and behaviours, and how that will impact and form the design of your sound.
The most significant reason for a experiencing a divergence between the planned design, or expectation, and the 'reality' of the final design is the way that non-expert non-developer players interact with the world. Within ZL projects, it has been noted that regardless of the design theory behind the audio design, music or mixing, non-expert players need a heavy amount of guidance and curation to guide their attention and experience – particularly since ZL moves the players through the system in groups of 6-8 players at a time.
In the ZL paradigm, 6 players caught in a large scale firefight (for example) generate a large number of sound sources, and (in this example) a high SPL for each player as well. It is a generally accepted philosophy that 'overcrowding' the aural field of a listener will cause a loss of definition from temporal and spectral masking, making the individual (or even important) sounds impossible to distinguish from each other. In films and other linear media, and even to some extent, video games with single player or controlled multiplayer modes, it is possible to mediate the experience of the player or viewer. However, in larger scale multiplayer games, and certainly in the ZL paradigm where each one of the 6 players in the game might overreact to a large number of enemies at the same time, there is the potential for huge explosions in voice numbers and volumes presented to the player. The image below is a capture of a play through for just one player, note the voice count hits around 70 voices.
The master bus as captured by FMOD Studio, showing the result of serious voice controlling over the course of a game of Survival – and this is just for one player.
Developing a methodology for approaching moments like this can help to ease player confusion and guide the player through the experience more effectively. At ZL, we leveraged the 1st person/other player perspectives to trigger mixer effects, as well as sharp attenuation curves for sounds like gunfire, and deliberately well designed mixer hierarchies to ensure that sounds heard by the player only could be impacted when required. All these elements become a part of the sound design in VR projects, because capturing the essence of the sound can be considered impossible without expressing the relationship of the player to that sound. Much like the way in which you might repeat an action with varying intensity or speed to analyse the sound and how it expresses your interaction, players within your VR titles expect relevant feedback with the environment and VR world around them.
[perfectpullquote align="left" cite="" link="" color="" class="" size=""]…these elements become a part of the sound design in VR projects, because capturing the essence of the sound can be considered impossible without expressing the relationship of the player to that sound.[/perfectpullquote]
Extending your sound design practice to include planning for spatial design and player interaction allows you to express your design practice and methodology more extensively. This is a widely useful practise when approaching audio in VR, as the extra layers of immersion and the necessity to guide and mediate that immersive journey do require a more deliberate application of our sound design skills. These elements and practices were developed as a result of the system which I develop for. Many of these practices are applicable to other multiplier VR projects, and particularly in free roam systems like the HTC Vive as well. Some of these techniques can even be scaled to work for seated, fixed position VR experiences as well, as the role and positioning of the viewer (or visitor, or player) is different for every project.

This is the format I use for active, highly paticipatory preschool storytimes.
Here is the basic formula I use for our library's story hour. This can be modified and expanded, but by keeping it consistent, your young audience will know what to expect. Children thrive on a sense of structure and routine that comes from doing things in a repeated pattern.
These songs have engaging related actions and are great for encouraging participation. See the related videos to see these songs performed. There are MANY appropriate songs out there. Just choose one you really like.
If your group really enjoys singing, you could make a game of choosing songs from a prepared chart for each month and allow children to come and choose a song to sing. Be cautious about singing too many songs and losing children's interest.
Thanks to the folks at supersimplesongs.com for providing the first instructional video.
Introduce your topic, or pre-read your book by showing them the cover and pictures inside. Ask the children to guess your theme.
Read the book to your audience. Make sure that all of the children can see the pictures. It is helpful to sit on a chair in front of your group, holding the book slightly to the side. You may have to stop and show the pictures of each page if you have a large crowd.
Ask predictive questions occasionally, such as, "what do you think will happen next."
If the book has repetitive, easy-to-remember phrases, let the children say them with you. Doing so keeps the children engaged in the story.
Your imagination is the limit to finding great read-aloud children's stories. In this hub I explain how to use internet resources, children's book web sites, reading lists, award-winning book lists, and library reference resource A to Zoo.
It's hard for kids to sit still and listen for a long time. If your first story is lengthy, don't read two. Try to be aware of your audience's attention span. If they are ready to read another book go ahead. If not, maybe do a finger play related to your theme, then go straight to your final song. You may need to do a finger play or sing a short song between books to help children regroup.
End your storytime with a short song that you sing each week. This signals that reading time is over and you are ready to go to your craft, if you choose to add that component to your storytime program.
Read more about using music and movement in a library or preschool story hour.
Do a simple craft with your storytime group that somehow relates to the book you read. Keep in mind that preschoolers do not have well-developed fine motor skills. Cutting and coloring within the lines is not an expectation you should have. There are many excellent books and internet resources published on crafts you can do with your storytime group. Try to pace yourself by adding a playdough time at least once a month. And don't get elaborate. Your crafts add expense to your program. Most parents don't keep storytime craft projects their kids make. Keep this in mind!
See how this story time structure is used in the Little Red Hen (Makes a Pizza) by author Philemon Sturges by clicking on the link. Check back soon for more book recommendations and lesson plan ideas. Feel free to use the plans, and go back online to share your critiques, suggestions, and notes about how you adapted the plan to your group's needs.
Here is a list of some of MY favorite read-aloud children's books, including book reviews for selected books. Please check back often for more children's book review hubs!
This award-winning children's book is a sure-fire winner with young toddlers and their frazzled parents.
Colorful problem/solution story will have your 3 and up crowd giggling to the end of the story.
Keep the folowing tips in mind as you prepare story time lesson plans.
If possible, specify your target age-range for children participating in your story hour. If you know you want to work with kids over age 3, specify that your plan is for ages 3 and up.
Adapt your plan to the audience that shows up. As you start to have regular repeat visitors at your story hour, try to adapt your storytime themes to the most common age of children who show up. For example, if most of the children who come to your story hour are under age three, adapt your stories by using more toddler books, vivid, short picture books, and singing.
Know your children's names. Knowing the names of the children who come to your story hour will help engage the children and eliminate some of the annoying distractions that sometimes arise. We kept a roll of disposable nametags for this purpose.
Try to get to know parents, too.
Be sensitive to your community's value systems. Being aware of differences in values can prevent hurt feelings. Two times when this issue was most prevalent was during fall and winter holidays. In our conservative Christian community, many parents were uncomfortable observing Halloween. By posting a schedule we were able to inform families of the week's theme ahead of time so they could decide if they wanted to join us. Christmas is another holiday to be sensitive about. Does your community have a high number of non-Christian residents? Keeping to a broad variety of winter themes may be more appropriate for you.
Be sensitive to differences in family demographics and income levels. Our town has a disproportionately high number of grandparents raising their grandchildren. Gone are the days when you can assume that a nuclear family consists of mom, dad, and two children. Be sensitive during Mother's Day and Father's Day holidays to children who don't have both parents living at home, and never assume that this is the case. Also, don't make remarks about gift-giving practices or make assumptions about how income is spent in a household.
Partner with local schools. Try to meet the kindergarten teachers for the school that is closest to your public library. Exchange email addresses and express a desire to learn what they know. School teachers have some pretty amazing resources at their disposal, and sometimes they are quite willing to share their knowledge with you.
Choose age-appropriate books. Try to develop a sense of how your readings were received and understood. Don't use long or complicated books with young preschoolers. Try to develop a sense of your audience's attention span. This can vary across ages. If a child rarely reads with their parents at home, even an older preschooler will struggle to pay attention to a longish book.
Plan age-appropriate crafts. Keep crafts REALLY simple. You don't need a "gee-whiz" craft every week to keep your storytime group coming back. Young preschoolers haven't mastered the gross motor skills needed to do complicated crafts with multiple steps. Also, the more complicated the craft, the more frequently parents step in to do the craft for their children, which really is not desirable.
Keep it moving. Pacing your storytime is very important, but it is also a practiced skill. Once you begin, try not to stop for interruptions. Use finger plays and musical activities to transition you from book to book, if you read more than one story.
Keep it simple. Try not to go overboard from week to week. Sometimes too much is just too much. Know when you have crossed that line.
Direct parents to related reading materials. As a storytime presenter, you are an advocate for early childhood literacy. Use the resources available to you to share information about related books with parents. This could simple mean pulling a few additional books from the shelf to share with parents as a regular ending to your story hour, or it could mean printing a list of books and songs you recommend, or creating some sort of newsletter.
This list of top children's offers will give you and your favorite young readers hours of exploring to do!
Starting a cooperative-style preschool for kids by parents is easy if you start with a plan. Here are some suggestions based on my experience participating in a Joy School-type preschool.
Try these techniques used by primary school teachers as they read to their classes. Your children will be more prepared to learn to read!
I am so glad to hear you can use the information! Enjoy!!
I'm so glad I came across this article today! I am going to start using this format for our morning homeschool routine. Thanks for the great ideas!
This information on conducting Story Times is very helpful.

Q: How to target an element nestled in several unidentified tables? I have no access to editing the HTML, I can only updated the CSS to change the styling.
I want to change an input field to be 100% width, but the field has the same class as another field where I want the width to be 50% (so basically, if I edit this field in the CSS directly, it will change both, which I don't want).
The field I want to change is nestled in several un-classed tables, but the parent table does have a class. Is there a way to target this specific input field?

<input type="text" id="zip">

A: Try this?
not sure what's the constriction
.findrepComponent input{
        width:50%;
    }

this means input in findrepComponent class
or more specific
.findrepComponent table talbe input{
    width:50%;

DC's next movie outing Wonder Woman is heading back for reshoots according to reports, and it's starting to sound like Suicide Squad all over again.
A solo outing for Gal Gadot's Wonder Woman seemed like a positive step for DC's troubled cinematic universe, being one of the few positives from Zack Snyder's Batman V Superman, but a slew of behind-the-scenes rumbles have brought the film's hopes into question.
There was the open letter supposedly from a former Warner Bros. employee who branded the film a 'total mess', the departure of original director Michelle MacLaren, and now there's new reports the film is set to undergo reshoots in a few weeks' time.
According to Flickreel.com, reshoots are set to take place at Leavesden in the UK where a castle and period buildings were built for the film, but it's unknown whether these were previously planned reshoots or a reaction to the film's current status.
While it's important to remember reshoots are incredibly common in the movie-making process, often being a simple case of wanting to add some additional material, it can also be a sign something is amiss, or the studio is desperately trying to salvage greatness from an irredeemable stinker.
Suicide Squad infamously underwent reshoots following the overwhelming reaction to the film's trailers, and considering a pretty excellent trailer was recently released for Wonder Woman, it's all starting to, worryingly, sound pretty familiar.
But we have hope, right? The action sequences look pretty great at least.
Wonder Woman is currently scheduled to be released in June 2017.

Free Hook Ups
Free Hook Ups Nearby Toowoomba Queensland - Back Page Escorts
And we are not the sole ones. According to one study , 10% of Americans have tried online dating. Free hook ups in Toowoomba. Of that 10%, a whopping 23% have met a spouse or long term partner. I repeat, nearly 25% of people that have tried online dating have wed one of their acquaintances. MARRIED. And that amount is just going to raise; picture how high it is going to climb in the following several years. Whether we like it or not believe it, online dating is a thing now. In fact, it is more than a matter. It's becoming increasingly complex, tailored and specific.
These respondents are also adamant on no longer needing to really go to pubs and clubs to meet an expected partner. Toowoomba Queensland Australia Free Hook Ups. Thank you, Tinder! Again, clubs werean livelyatmospherefor meeting individuals exceptionally popularized by Generation X. These sites acted as a social hub for meeting new people and expanding a person's network. With new choices, such as internet dating apps and websites, many millennial women believe that online dating is a good deal safer and much more efficient compared to the natural ways of years prior. Millennials understandthat commanded on-line settings are more suitable for finding potential mates than drunken fumbles in a sticky-floored club. Sophie Wilkinson, news editor of women's lifestyle website The Debrief,makes a great point as it pertains to women and clubs. She says that nightclub bouncers are far more focused on kicking out intoxicated guys and preventing senseless fights instead of preventing harassment of female clubbers. I think programs like Tinder supply a safer environment for women---it is a bit easier to filter out any baddies if you are behind a display."
Maybe the Internet lets these guys believe they got the license to behave like cretins since the effects are not the same as they would be if they had acted like that in person. These digital brutes are made up of innuendo-droppers, penis-pic-ers, as well as the men who try to discern their profiles by calling themselves "nice guys."Literally. It is in their bios. These self-proclaimed sensitive types manage to locate the most effective blend of condescension, self pity, and White Knight sexism to make any girl wish she could go back to ignoring an inbox full of horny guys. These "nice guys" always find ways to make it all about themselves:
I Want To Meet A Girl Tonight closest to Toowoomba Queensland
Men have ruined online dating for themselves. In case you don't believe it, simply open one of your female buddy's OKCupid inboxes and gaze upon the thirst that is sent her way. There are men whoapproach online dating by parroting catcalls they've heard on the road, or by beginning a dialog with icebreakers about their dick, or her booty, and also the possibility of an interaction between them both. We hear about these online dating nightmares all of the time Girls are sick of it. They already get enough of it IRL.
Free Hook Ups Near Me Calamvale Queensland. Weigel, by comparison, does not give up on the quest for lasting fondness. She's no brave new world to propose, only some fixes for the present one. As her historical survey makes clear, love WOn't ever rid itself of economical considerations. Her guidance for today's daters would be to adopt the truth that dating is really a transaction, that it demands work. Just then can they focus on making the change that counts: approaching love affair not as a consumer but as a would be producer. What would they make? Attention. Love consists of actions of care you can extend to whomever you select, for however long your relationship survives," Weigel reminds her readers. Yes, care calls for as much labour as delight, but it's the very best form of job there's. The future---our future and the next generation's---depends on it. If dating for women and men equally became less callow and much more attentive, less like a shopping spree and more like training for the rigors of familiarity, maybe the entire business would not be so unsatisfying.
But what about the street toward greater sexual equality? I hope I actually don't sound like an frightened old fogy when I say that the lessons Witt takes away from her journey aren't quite comforting. I doubt lots of people will share her hopes for the future of union and love. Witt, consistent in her ambivalence, doesn't sound overly enthused about them herself. Union may be downgraded to a joint custodial venture for the raising of kids. We could practice the psychological direction of multiple concurrent relationships." That does not seem carrying through; it sounds exhausting. It is telling that the only time Witt finds joy is at Burning Man, the pop-up city that she comprehends for what it's: rich people on vacation breaking rules that everyone else would bear for if they did not mind." However, the psychedelic drugs, the master, the immediate bond together with the guy she meets and accompanies to the orgy dome---the encounter felt right" to Witt, and inspires a tentative vision of a more unfettered sexuality. Possibly the generation after hers would do their new drugs and have their new sex. Free Hook Ups Near Me Capalaba Queensland. They wouldn't think of themselves as women or guys. They would meld their bodies seamlessly with their machines, without our humiliation, without our opinions of authenticity." Well, perhaps. But then what?
Where Can I Find Cheap Hookers in Australia
Delving into the deep web and its more extreme types of porn, Witt detects not just the reward of oppressive standards but also their subversion---a wilderness beyond the gleaming edge of the corporate Internet and the matchstick bodies and shiny manes of network television." In addition to the regular bondage and discipline, this sexual hinterland features bushy pubic hair, tats, bodily fluids, Mexican wrestling masks, birthday cake, ski goggles, and much more. The indexes on fetish-particular websites comprise enormous clit, chubby, puffy nipples, farting, hairy pussy, fat mature, and nasty. Witt is taken aback by her own positive response. In looking through all this I found unexpected reassurance that somebody will always need to have sex with me," she writes. This was the reverse of the long road toward sexual obsolescence that I were educated to anticipate."
Toowoomba Queensland Free Hook Ups. She goes further at OneTaste, an organization that sells workshops on something called orgasmic meditation, which is supposed to train individuals, especially women, to concentrate on their own sexual pleasure with no distraction of emotions, expectations, and inhibitions. Witt signs up for stroking sessions---15 minutes of clitoral manipulation---which she receives at the hands of Eli, an Apple employee turned OneTaste staff member. The very first time he strokes her, she experiences a deep, intense relaxation" that she traces to her neither needing nor being required to have sex with Eli; when she's got an orgasm during the third session, she is left feeling depressed. OneTaste is clearly preying on the sexual desperation of the lonely, but Witt also gives its practitioners credit for trying to arrive at a more genuine and secure experience of sexual receptiveness ... Their approach was strange, but at least they believed in the possibility."
Witt, also, is impatient with the failure of gender equality to generate sexual equality. Even adventuresome women, she notes, still take on the bulk of whatever mental weight comes with casual sex---attempting to restrain attachment, pretending to love something that hurt or annoyed them, defining sexiness by pictures they had seen rather than understanding what they wanted." She is seeking an empowered variation of uninhibited sexuality, or free love, as it used to be called. Strangely, though, the free love she uncovers is seldom free. Witt largely trains her attention on sexual interactions that are expressly commercial. (The exclusions are a polyamorous threesome and Burning Man, the sex-and-drugs-and-self-actualization festival held annual in the Nevada desert.) She needs to know whether women who use sex to earn money, or who use guys for delight, somehow develop more sexual confidence, have a greater sense of sexual agency.
Local Hookups Free
Weigel stresses that the naked mercantilism of recreational sexual meetings coarsens us and reinforces stereotypes. People who attempt to wriggle out of the old gender roles end up skittish and bewildered. Most of my friends agreed that dating felt like experimental theater," Weigel writes. You and a partner showed up every night with different, conflicting scripts. You did your best." Dating may have morphed into improv, but that hasn't made matters easier for women. If anything, now's sexual standards favor guys. Women must make do with two intense time pressures: to make a good impression in an issue of seconds, and to pair off before the biological timer runs out. Now more than ever, they have to discipline their bodies and restrict their longings---avoid being overly fat, too loud, overly ambitious, too needy," in Weigel's words.
Then as now, commentators fretted that dating commercialized courtship. In the early 20th century, journalists and vice commissioners stressed the new custom of guys paying for women's dinners amounted to prostitution. A number of the time it absolutely did---just as today, some dating websites, like SeekingArrangement, pair sugar infants" with sugar daddies" who pay off college debts and other expenses. Ever since the creation of dating, the line between sex work and 'valid' dating has stayed challenging to draw," Weigel writes. Well before app users rated potential partners so ruthlessly, daters were told to shop around." They debated whether they owed" someone something in exchange for" a night out. Today, as Weigel notes, we toss around business jargon with an almost transgressive glee, subjecting relationships to cost-benefit analyses" and invoking the low risk and low investment costs" of casual sex.
As Weigel tells it, dating is an unintended byproduct of consumerism. Nineteenth-century industrialization ushered in the age of inexpensive goods, and manufacturers needed to sell more of them. Young women moved to cities to work and met more eligible men per day than they could formerly have met in years. Men began taking women out to places of entertainment that offered young folks recourse from their sharp-eyed elders---amusement parks, restaurants, movie theaters, bars. The first entrepreneurs to make dating stages," Weigel calls their proprietors. Romance began to be decoupled from devotion. Attempting something on before you bought it became the brand new rule.
Witt, an intrepid journalist and mordantly ambivalent memoirist, looks forward rather than back. With no serious boyfriend in sight---love is rare," she writes, and it is frequently unreciprocated"---she set out to analyze choices to a monogamous destiny," excited for a future in which the primacy and validity of a single sexual model" is no longer supposed. Assuming the function of participant observer, she moves through an assortment of sexual subcultures. Many of these are artifacts of the internet, from online dating to sadomasochistic feminist pornography sites to webcam peepshows such as one called Chaturbate. She expects to seek out hints about what relationships might look like in a amorous, postmarital period.
Weigel, a Ph.D. candidate in comparative literature at Yale, embarked on her charmingly digressive, nonacademic history of American dating after being strung along by a caddish boyfriend torn between her and an ex girlfriend. His trust that he was entitled to what he desired (even if what he wanted was to be indecisive), compared with her inability to maintain her own needs, dismayed her. How retrograde! The sexual revolution had failed her. It did not change gender roles and amorous relationships as drastically as they would have to be changed as a way to make everyone as free as the idealists promised," she writes. To comprehend how she, and women like her, came to feel so dispossessed, she decided to investigate the heritage encoded in the rituals of dating. Free hook ups closest to Toowoomba Queensland.

About 1 in 3 of us risk developing cancer1. Today, there are good opportunities for treatment of primary tumors, but if the tumor cells spread in the body via metastasis, treatment options become considerably more limited. This is a severe problem as metastasis causes 90% of all deaths from cancer2.The key to successful treatment is to identify the migration potential in the tumor cells and to treat cancer optimally.
We have chosen to start our development work within breast cancer, which, together with prostate cancer, is the most common cancer form3. WHO has estimated that there were 1.7 million new cases of breast cancer in 2012. It is generally estimated that the incidence of cancer will increase by 70% over the next 20 years3.
Therefore, it is important to note that after further development CellRACE has the potential to be used in other cancer forms.


Hana Pesut is a Canadian photographer who dared to have random, fashionably dressed couples do the ol' switcheroo. It's great that the couples were obliging enough to comply with her request even when they're having their pictures take right out in the open. I'm not sure who enjoyed the project more, the subjects or the photographer. In every shot, the couples are smiling just as widely before and after the switch. I love the way they mimic each other's poses before the switch. The guys seem to be just as comfortable in a dress as their wives are in a suit. Switcheroo is an ongoing project that will someday be turned into a book.

Q: Cant ping AWS IPV4 Public IP I am spinning up my first ever AWS EC2 server.
In my security groups I added a new group called inbound and allowed http and https traffic but still not working:

A: Ping works on ICMP protocol.
When you ping any server, ICMP protocol is used to send a ICMP type 8 - Ping Request message. The server replies back with a ICMP type 0 - Ping Reply message.
When you ping a server, say google.com from your EC2 instance, the server would send ping reply packets back to the instance. In order to accept those packets, you have to add a Custom ICMP rule with Type 0 message in the inbound rules of the security group attached to the instance.
Simply attaching the security group shown in the screenshot to the instance would not help. Also, it is in no way connected to port 80/443 and Apache at all!
Hope this helps!

A: I followed the AWS instructions for allowing HTTPS and HTTP and created a new security group.
What i failed to do was add the new security group to the instance that I was running.
To do this select your instance then click Actions->networking-CHange Security Groups

There is insufficient prospective evidence regarding the relationship between surgical experience and prolonged opioid use and pain. We investigated the association of patient characteristics, surgical procedure, and perioperative anesthetic course with postoperative opioid consumption and pain three months post surgery. We hypothesized patient characteristics and intraoperative factors predict opioid consumption and pain three months post surgery.
Eleven U.S. and one European institution enrolled patients scheduled for spine, open thoracic, knee, hip, or abdominal surgery, or mastectomy in this multicenter, prospective observational study. Preoperative and postoperative data was collected using patient surveys and electronic medical records. Intra-operative data were collected from the Multicenter Perioperative Outcomes Group database. The association between postoperative opioid consumption and surgical site pain at three months, elicited from a telephone survey conducted at three months postoperatively, and demographics, psycho-social scores, pain scores, pain management, and case characteristics, was analyzed.
Between September and October 2017, 3,505 surgical procedures met inclusion criteria. 1,093 cases were included; 413 patients were lost to follow-up, leaving 680 (64%) for outcome analysis. Preoperatively, 135 (20%) patients were taking opioids. Three months post surgery, 96 (14%) patients were taking opioids, including 23 patients (4%) who had not taken opioids preoperatively. 177 patients (27%) reported surgical site pain, including 45 (13%) patients who had not reported pain preoperatively. The adjusted odds ratio for 3-month opioid use was 18.6 (Credible Interval 10.3- 34.5) for patients who had taken opioids preoperatively. The adjusted odds ratio for three-month surgical site pain was 2.58 (1.45-4.4), 4.1 (1.73-8.9), and 2.75 (1.39-5.0) for patients who had site pain preoperatively, knee replacement, or spine surgery, respectively.
Preoperative opioid use was the strongest predictor of opioid use three months post surgery. None of the other variables showed clinically significant association with opioid use at three months after surgery.

Re-understanding Japan: Chinese Perspectives, 1895–1945
by Lu Yan
Series: Asian Interactions and Comparisons
Re-understanding Japan: Chinese Perspectives, 1895–1945 quantity
To many Chinese, the rise and expansion of Japanese power during the years between the two Sino-Japanese wars (1895–1945) presented a paradox: With its successful modernization, Japan became a model to be emulated; yet as the country's imperial ambitions on the continent grew, it posed an ever-increasing threat. Drawing on an extraordinary array of source materials, Lu Yan shows that this attraction to and apprehension of Japan prompted the Chinese to engage in a variety of long-term relationships with the Japanese.
Re-understanding Japan examines transnational and transcultural interactions between China and Japan during those five dramatic and tragic decades at the intimate level of personal lives and behavior. At the center of Lu's inquiry are four diverse yet significant case studies: military strategist Jiang Baili, literary critic and essayist Zhou Zuoren, Guomindang leader Dai Jitao, and romantic poet turned Communist Guo Moruo. In their public and private lives, these influential Chinese formed lasting ties with Japan and the Japanese. While their writings reached the Chinese public through the print mass media and served to enhance popular understanding of Japan and its culture, their activities in political, cultural, and diplomatic affairs paralleledsignificant turns in Sino-Japanese relations.
Based on archival documents, personal memoirs, correspondence, interviews, and contemporary literary works, Re-understanding Japan delineates diverse approaches in Chinese efforts to engage Japan in China's modern reforms.

Siéntate y mira. Crítica, comentarios y ensayos sobre cine
There is a right to gather what is being written, if in the passage of time, one as an author wishes to appreciate onese sees and be valued less dispersed and fragmentary. Anthologies tend to better shape the image of the various printed yoes, but they can also distance a creator who is not distinguished by a single way of exercising criticism. Although in rigor, not a way, not even a style are guarantees of exhibition or qualifying quality.
An added right to the meeting is to select what one implies most interesting and perhaps valid, whether in question of substance, style (if any), thematic. Although if the call is cinema, in this case criticism, commentary or essay on cinema, there is no need for a single exhibition or writing form because the selected films are as different as their ways of addressing them. And I still believe that the tone of the criticized (audiovisual) influences that of writing, as well as the variability of media or publishing contexts such as specialized or cultural magazines in the general sense, web pages, radio and television.
In Sit back and watch… I select some of the texts already presented in publications of great relevance and legitimizing of the capital and Cuba. I did not decide to include opinions released on the programming grid of different havana radio stations such as COCO, Habana Radio and CMBF, as they were comments, when not reviewed, close to the radio mode, thus implying tone and extension of the language itself for the radio that I do not despise in any way. Their scope and amenity are indisputable, but, if included, it would create a tonal and expressive divorce in this volume. On the other hand, I greatly appreciate the importance of the note or journalistic review that I have also written for a remarkable website such as CMBF or for the Poster of the International Festival of new Latin American Cinema in Havana.
When I recently graduated from Art History, I began writing comments for Radio Guamá, the provincial station of Pinar del Río. There I was opened by directors and radio advisers who, like my friend Yemile Crespo, trusted that I could do it. I learned with Yemile the importance, for example, of subordinating less in notes and comments, as my art critic Adelaide de Juan requested a few years ago. The information has to also enter precisely, almost without second intentions, but you do not have to give up the suggestions. "The hard and tempting thing to do is to prove that you can write for the radio medium and for the printed media," my friend encouraged me.
Writing daily for radio influenced me more than imagined, especially the clarity and ease of exposure. Since everything cannot be addressed in radio time, I also learned to focus on one or two aspects of filmic hashing. My teacher and friend Rufo Caballero already recommended it in his film appreciation classes when I was in my fourth year of Art History. This would have an impact for the sake of deepening and limiting myself to the simultaneous and future spaces of publication. On the fly I became convinced that film critics come as a ring to the finger the truth of the saying: "who encompasses much tightly". There is no need to pretend to say it all in order to achieve a correct, good and tempting text. For added extension and deepening is the essay, although my reviews and short comments are influenced by the essayistic, as some have warned.
I didn't give up periphrase, so it was simple on the radio or more complicated in a written text. By accommodating some texts for certain announcers, I did not want to make other concessions. Despite traditional media rules or requirements, there is no single way to write for the radio. So I demanded that my comments be read properly. Interpretation and tone was what I asked for, when I didn't record them with my voice. Many announcers read very well, but do not interpret the comment. Tonal disaffalle in some critical dimensions undermines not only the object of analysis, but also the exercise of judgment itself. Not to my liking many critics prefer and are even asked to read their own appreciations or cinematic comments or any manifestation on the radio. However, I trusted and had unexpected surprises. I often managed to distance myself from my authorship and was very critical once I heard an effective comment read by others in front of the microphone. Other times, I was excited to heed something that didn't look like mine. The locution averaged a lot.
I've always tried to insinuate, write anywhere. Direct language, without a creative purpose in how you could write about a film or any other artistic expression, does not please me, because there is not a single path if you promote, interpret and rate something or someone it is. This level of demands I demand even for the most promotional texts, such as when I have had to write for the Poster of the Latin American New Film Festival.
Here I collect texts of very different tones where generic borders fade away. That was intentional. Although the critic does not need to be direct in expressing whether or not he liked a particular film, the tone, when not analyzed, can already reveal the view. And I advocate falling in love with the language, while still calling things the way they are. However, a good criticism is not the one that underscores and triggers a very technical or academic terminology. I try not to bore and saturate with cinematic terms. I also don't abandon them when I need to name them and clarify something.
The title Sit down and watch… I take it from the daily saying. It is the figure of a larger projection, where one friend invites another to share two spaces: that of the house and even that of the dark room and that of the history or character development that is proposed to us. Sit down for a stay and a previous concentration, since then you will begin another kind of awakening that involves focusing and then thinking with your eyes. Perhaps the phrase "sit and look" is an order without an imposition, although for many it is listed as a subtle order. And, between the two exercises, there can be no lack of the pleasure of reading as a call for the commented and mentioned films to be seen later. In truth, criticism of a film is not dependent, but concurrent, exercises, where two scriptures (those of an observer and a filmmaker) intersect in favor of cinematic work. I've wanted to write from so many others, but I haven't dared for many other reasons.
My thanks to the Island of Youth, where I was born and saw for the first time cinema, the island of my childhood, adolescence and early youth. I remember La Fe, where my house was, the outdoor cinema, the Young Club where I skipped so many lunchtimes and food to watch movies or participate in premieres of all kinds and categories. To La Fe, which I do not want to visit for reasons of nostalgia and my possible collapse, I owe my early attachment to the seventh art. On television, in my home pinero, having trained with Enrique Colina, Carlos Galiano and Rolando Pérez Betancourt. Reading and trust to come, in Havana and Pinar del Río, to Rufo Caballero and José Alberto Lezcano, respectively, my dearest teachers. To whom I read as a teenager and who now have them as colleagues and friends: Frank Padrón, Joel del Río and my brother Dean Luis Reyes. Antonio Mazón, Mario Naito and Luciano Castillo, of which I have the privilege of having their friendship. Raydel Araoz and Rubens Riol, Mayté Madruga and Antonio Enrique González Rojas, Tony, the most followed and controversial critic of my generation. Alberto Garrandés, a demanding and prolific literary, whose film books are of writing merit and controversial analytical descriptions. Not for the last and least important of the elegant Mario Espinosa and the insightful Angel Pérez, young writers of cinema fed up with treble. To the indirect magisterium of Colombian Luis Alberto Alvarez and the Cuban Eduardo Manet, newly discovered by the compilations of Carlos Espinosa Domínguez: El espejo pintado (Editorial Oriente, 2017) and With spectator eyes. Criticisms and essays by Eduardo Manet (ICAIC Editions). To the magazines that have published these film texts such as La Gaveta, Cine Cubano, Revolución y Cultura, Palabra Nueva, La Siempreviva…, as well as prestigious websites such as IPS and cmBF.
To cult films and also to good and minor films recommended by acquaintances, friends and colleagues; those suggested by an acquaintance; to the premieres discovered in the dark cinema room or in my house, I add the daring, the passionate and perhaps some reason in these texts of Sit down and look… Ω

March 27, 2013 / Ken Seiler
Hideo Kojima, head of Kojima Productions, announced during GDC that Metal Gear "Solid: Ground Zeroes" and "The Phantom Pain" are actually one in the same. Both names were leaked a while back but nobody really knew what was happening and everything was kept locked really tight, so this came as a really good surprise at GDC earlier. They both add together to form Metal Gear Solid 5.
Hideo Kojima showed off a trailer (which you can see below) which is just mind blowing.
The game seems to be a continuation from Peace Walker, since the attack is seems to be in the base that was set up during MGS: PW. Snake is seen in hospital and Hideo Kojima revealed that he has been in a coma for the past 9 years.
The MGS5 trailer confirms that the game is in development for Xbox 360 and PS3, but it was just demoed on a PC so I can only assume it will be on PC, too.
However, some sad news follows this amazing story. David Hayter confirmed on Twitter that he would not be the voice of Solid Snake this time. It is such a shame as he really had the greatest voice. I will find it difficult adjusting to a new voice for such an iconic character.
Well look,At least I had a good run.
— David Hayter (@DavidBHayter) March 27, 2013
When asked if he was even offered the part he simply replied "Nope". Some fans of the series are going to be really upset by these turn of events! It makes no sense to make a game with Snake and not have the voice actor come in, but I'm sure some light will be shed on this over the next few days.
I personally am already put off this game a little bit. I think that if you're going to make a new story with such an iconic character, you bring the voice.
They did a live demo of MGS 5 at GDC, too. You can check that out below! The graphics are pretty damned impressive. Let us know your thoughts on all of this in the comments below.

Ahuva Ozeri (; March 3, 1948 – December 13, 2016) was an Israeli singer, songwriter and composer. She released 20 albums over her four-decade career. According to The Times of Israel, she was "a pioneer of Israeli music".

Early life
Ahuva Ozeri was born and grew up in Tel Aviv's Yemenite Quarter to a Jewish family. Her father died when she was four years old; she had seven siblings.

Career
Ozeri started her career as a singer in Israel in the 1960s. Additionally, she was a songwriter and composer. She played the Bulbul tarang, an Indian musical instrument she learned from the drummer of Ravi Shankar. She released her first album, Where is the Soldier?, in 1975. The songs were about the Yom Kippur War. She went on to release 19 more albums in the next four decades. Despite losing her vocal chords to cancer, she continued to release new music, including six new albums. She released the 2008 hit song Sticker Song with Hadag Nahash. Five years later, in 2013, she released her last album, Maalei Demama (Out of Silence) in 2013, in which she wrote and composed songs interpreted by such artists as Berry Sakharof, Ehud Banai, and Chava Alberstein.

Ozeri was the recipient of an award from the Society of Authors, Composers and Music Publishers in Israel (ACUM) in 2008. She was "a founding mother of Mizrahi music" according to Arutz Sheva and "a pioneer of Israeli music" according to The Times of Israel. Uri Barbash, an Israeli filmmaker, did a documentary about her.

Personal life and death
Ozeri was first diagnosed with laryngeal cancer in 2000, when she had surgery. In 2002, she underwent another surgery to remove a tumour. She died of cancer on December 13, 2016 at the Sheba Medical Center in Ramat Gan, Israel, aged 68.

Upon her death, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called her "a pillar of Mediterranean music in Israel." Additionally, Miri Regev, Israel's Culture and Sports Minister, tweeted, "the crown of a renewed Israeli culture fell today. Ahuva (meaning "beloved" in Hebrew), rest in peace. I assure you, your voice will not be silenced forever." Yuli Edelstein, the Speaker of the Knesset, called her "a unique figure who blended East and West in an amazing way in her melodies and her lyrics", adding "Her dedication to her work despite the challenges is an inspiration. May her memory be for a blessing."

Robert Pattinson has been caught kissing a mystery brunette in Toronto on a night out with his Map To The Stars cast-mates.
Will you just let us breathe, Robert – we're enjoying your single moment.
Pictures have emerged of Rob – who is supposedly enjoying a 'friends with benefits relationship' with Riley Keogh – stealing a kiss with the stranger after a dinner with Jesse Eisenberg (who can be seen turning away with an 'OMG' mouth).
There is speculation that Rob's 'mysterious girl' is none other than the daughter of Map To The Stars director Caitlin Cronenberg, which would explain co-star Jesse's look of horror at this public display of affection.
The pair met on the set of Cosmopolis in 2011, where Rob worked with her director father David Cronenberg for the first time and were said to acting 'touchy feely' at the movie's wrap party.
On Tuesday, Rob took a break from Map To The Stars filming and flew back to Los Angeles.
Will he be scheduling in a secret meet with Kristen Stewart while she's in the city filming her new movie Camp X-Ray?


BYU Studies Quarterly 54, no. 2, starts off with a message from BYU President Kevin Worthen as he encourages BYU Studies to continue in its role supporting the mission of BYU, to publish works that reflect scholarship and faith. Avram Shannon asks whether the Joseph Smith Translation is a midrash and carefully explains that Midrash, a rabbinic commentary on the Hebrew Bible, is similar only in limited ways to the JST. Jared Ludlow presents his research on what kind of changes Joseph Smith made as he translated the synoptic Gospels and what these changes signify. Tod Harris compares the Joseph Smith Translation to the work of Meister Eckhart, giving specific examples of their revisions of the Bible. David Whittaker tells the story of Joseph B. Keeler, who was instrumental in providing published works for the Church as it transitioned to the modern era. Gordon Daines tells the story of the BYU Archives, established in 1956, with Ralph Hansen as the first archivist. John Welch presents photos of Thorvaldsen's famous Christus statue along with the statues of the apostles. Minerva Teichert painted many scenes of the Book of Mormon, including a recently-come-to-light sketch of the story of Corianton as told in Alma 39. Artists Chiloba Chirwa and J. Kirk Richards presented a joint exhibition at BYU, presented here with commentary by Herman du Toit. Ralph Hancock and Joseph Spencer engage in a philosophical exchange about a theoretical framing of modern materialism.


Celtic striker Scott McDonald's controversial challenge on Dundee United defender Lee Wilkie has been referred to the Scottish Football Association's review panel.
Referee Stuart Dougal did not get a proper view of the original incident during Celtic's 2-1 victory last night so he has handed the incident on to the panel.
McDonald is the second Celtic player to be referred this week after Glenn Loovens' challenge on Rangers midfielder Maurice Edu sparked another probe.
Both players will be free to play in Celtic's Clydesdale Bank Premier League run-in as the review panel refer the matter to the SFA's disciplinary committee, which will next meet following the end of the season, if they decide either player has a case to answer.
McDonald's studs caught Wilkie on the shin after he raised his foot after stretching to make a sliding challenge.The incident sparked a major row between Dougal and United boss Craig Levein, who criticised the referee's response after being urged to allow treatment to the defender.
"He lost his composure, stuck his finger in my face and told me to shut up," the United boss said after the game. "It wasn't acceptable.In all my time in football, no other referee has ever done that.I have lost all respect for him after the way he spoke to me.
Levein may yet find himself in trouble over his comments if the SFA's general purposes committee decide to take the matter further.
