I recently have started seeing a psychiatrist again, and it has honestly helped me a lot already. Maybe one day I can be as confident in real life as I am on the internet! So here are my little tips to help with the bad days, or panic attacks or anything that will make you smile!
1. When I have a bad day, I know the best thing for me to do is to do something. Not sit and think about it, or it gets worse. I normally colour, adult colouring books you can get anywhere now, I love the mindfulness ones the most. It's nice to kind of not think of anything as escape to a little reality for a bit.
2. Escape into a new series or movie series, it's nice to relax and not think about anything else. I love getting into a new series!
3. Writing! I love writing everything and anything, when I have bad thoughts or when I know I will have a anxiety attack, I write down whatever my mind is thinking. It can be about anything and it takes your mind away from the moment. It helps physically writing it down also. I also have a notebook especially for it, so decorate one and make it special to you.
4. Fidget cubes! These are especially handy if your out and about and can't exactly write. There small and they are pretty handy.
5. If I'm also in public, I have a mobile app called Be okay, and it helps with panic attacks. There's loads of different apps to help with mental health, and ones that I've tried are really good!
6. Talking. It might seem hard, but it really does help. I try and talk to my fiancé when I feel bad or feel like I'm going to have a anxiety attack. Taking to whoever helps. And knowing they will listen and help is even better.
7. Photos! Having an album on your phone or computer is really good. Everything that makes you happy and calm, like photos of friends, family, pets, holidays, food! Anything.
8. Reading! This is especially good if your having a bad day. I love reading adventure and mystery books, and that always keeps me interested. Having a book can really help take your mind away from things.
So they are some little tips and advice on how to handle certain things! I hope you enjoyed reading! I'm always here if anybody wants to chat also!
I would like to start with whats been going on since the last time I posted! So a couple of weeks ago I had another admission for 17 days, which was the longest I have ever stayed. I was on IV antibiotics for about 3 and a half weeks, and it made me feel so ill! I was put on anti sickness tablets and others which helped. I finally got home and I started to get back into normal life (if I can call it that?) and was heading in the right direction! Yay. But this post is all about Cystic fibrosis awareness month. As I have missed quite a few days already, I'm going to put up 17 facts about Living and dealing with cystic fibrosis.
1.Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease which mostly affects the lungs,pancreas,liver,intestines.
2. 1 in 25 people carry the defective gene.
3. Most CF patients take over 30 pills a day.
5. We usually have salty skin!
6. Thick, green, sticky mucus clogs the airways, which makes lung function decline.
7. Around 30,000 people in the US have cystic fibrosis.
8.There is no cure for Cystic Fibrosis.
9. As the mucus builds up in the lungs, the bacteria grows thus leading to frequent chest infections.
11. Around 10,400 people in the UK have cystic fibrosis.
12.Cystic fibrosis is the UK's most common life threatening condition.
13.There are over 2,000 identified mutations.
15. Joint pain affects more than 1 in 10 people.
16. Clubbed nail beds are very common.
I will be posting more as the month goes on for awareness!
Lovely day watching the snow and doing my nebulisers !

Due to the fact that microcurrent circulates on the surface of tourmaline all the time (I = 0.06mA), which is equal to the biocurrent of the organism, it can fill the gap and bring into compliance at any time, negating the pathological potential, and thus playing a health-promoting role for the organism.
The tourmaline iplicator, which based on tourmaline material, is an acupressure instrument that is characterized by such exceptional features as 90.4% long-wavelength infrared radiation and negatively charged ions of 682 ions/cc, antibacterial and deodorant effects: 98% and 87%respectively, etc. At the contact with the human body due to the human heat and liquids, it occurs a process of separation of infrared rays and negative ions. There is an effect on blood, vessels, muscle tissue and nerve endings. Infrared rays penetrate the human's body to 40 –50 mm and create a resonance effect in the molecules of tissues and body fluids, in the process of which capillary vessels expand and the blood flow rate increases, so the body oxygen content and the activated protein increase.
The negative ions released by tourmaline stimulate the cellular metabolism, increase the vitality of the cells, soothe the nerves, eliminate fatigue, etc. Infrared rays and negative ions simultaneous effect increases blood circulation, helps reduce pain, and removes fat deposits. Studies of negative ions showed an acceleration of cell renewal, an increase in vital activity, purification of blood.
Tourmaline crystals are known to be a natural solar battery. They can absorb and accumulate solar energy, convert it into thermal energy (infrared rays) and electricity (biocurrent) and then release them and form a tourmaline energy field, from which energy is continuously supplied to the body cells. Tourmaline zone restores and nourishes the human's biological field, reduces the harmful effects of geopathogenic, bioenergetic, impulse and electromagnetic influences. The use of a tourmaline iplicator stimulates the function of osteoblasts, helps restore joints and bones, facilitating the release of synovial fluid and the best lubrication of diarthroses surfaces.
Studies have shown that the characteristics of a human's biological field coincide with the characteristics of the infrared spectrum of tourmaline radiation. Our body can not only radiate, but also intensively absorb infrared rays of this spectrum. The reflection creates the effect of recycling or re-use of the body radiation. Therefore, when a tourmaline iplicator is applied to the painful place, the energy exchange of the fields begins: the tourmaline gives energy to the human, then the reflected spectrum from the human is passed to the tourmaline, and so on. We hope the use our tourmaline iplicator improves your health.

Dalton Bishop has a secret. A man of privilege, he's been living on the streets as a social experiment. Now, in gracious payback for his chivalry, Cece invites him to an elegant fund-raiser called the Forgotten Man Ball. It's Greta he's taken with, however - and to Greta's surprise, she's taken right back. But Dalton has one more secret up his tattered sleeve. For right now, though, he's just happy embracing the woman of his dreams. It's only the beginning of a romantic and revealing adventure that will take them to a place where money, class, and fame matter far less than true love.

the narrator is great. the story is good. I mean very good. I just wished there was some closure. it's a maybe HEA. you just don't know.
A shallow, formulaic fairytale. Too wordy, predictable. The protagonist has as much debt as a Barbie doll.
Clean, cute story in the style of a delightful 1930s/40s romantic comedy. I can envision Cary Grant as Dalton and Irene Dunne as Greta. HEAs guaranteed for all.
Sweet but implausible story, not worth the time.
I liked the characters, Greta, Dalton, Ceci and her sister. It was hard to believe the parents the reader never got to really meet could be so callous and profit from a daughter they didn't even understand. Dalton's noble experiment was full of contrived meetings and situations. It was pure fluff with an equally contrived happy ending.

Oral History and the Documentation of Historic Sites: Recording Sense of Place
Marcus, Benjamin (2008) Oral History and the Documentation of Historic Sites: Recording Sense of Place. In: 16th ICOMOS General Assembly and International Symposium: 'Finding the spirit of place – between the tangible and the intangible', 29 sept – 4 oct 2008, Quebec, Canada. [Conference or Workshop Item]
77-auDd-142.pdf
While technology and historical documents are vital for recording and interpreting cultural heritage, living memory can convey both tangible and intangible aspects of a site such as alterations, use, cultural significance, and meaning. Despite the widespread application of oral history in related fields, it is often ignored as a tool for documenting historic buildings and sites. However, because it records not only physical, but social, spiritual and ritual phenomena, the oral record is essential to understanding the intangible and capturing sense of place. This paper examines research and case studies in which oral history was used to document a site and its cultural context. The case studies recorded testimony about various aspects of historic sites including architectural features and alterations to an Ottoman-era house and hamam in Kars, Turkey, and urban social conflicts that led to the abandonment of a monumental 1930s swimming pool in Brooklyn, New York.

Every parent should be aware that their children are at risk from breathing this forestry smoke. The elderly, the sick, pollution levels are high enough to even affect healthy adults. We are all at risk. It is not just a matter of reducing the amount of forestry smoke, that just makes it more difficult to avoid by not being able to smell or see it, and the damage still persists silently and unseen in people until it is too late. There needs to be a complete ban on forestry planned burns, because there are other smokeless ways for them to get rid of their residue and other ways to reduce the build up of land fuel before a fire season. In actual fact planned burns are unnecessary and promote unnecessary weed and scrub growth in many instances.
Our government has had years to fix this. They don't need more time to look at the problem, they could pass a law tomorrow that completely stops smoky planned burns. The question has to be asked....why don't they when there are other cleaner methods available??
Hopefully, this educational resource may be of use to school children in their studies and to people who suffer lung or heart disease and are feeling sick, isolated and helpless with all this going on around them. To those of you lucky enough not to suffer a respiratory or heart condition at this point, please be aware that unfortunately in time you more than likely will as a result of todays 'best practices'. There is so much information to substantiate this fact on this website and it's in abundance on the internet.
I believe it is a basic human right to be able to breathe clean air and to go outside when you want to. I don't think anybody would disagree with that except the forest industries and our government. About 200Km to the West of where I live it is reported to have the cleanest air in the world.
Forestry practices soon degrade this for all Tasmanians with their planned burns, but the sad point is they don't have to burn their rubbish, there are cleaner ways.
Our fire authorities use the term "watch and act". Rather than just watching the fires while they grow bigger every effort should be made to extinguish each and every fire in its infancy to protect our environment and to produce less smoke.
'Pyromania' is a desire to burn things.
Go here to read how a firebug 'yearned to be on a fire truck', and another one here.
And another one here. The list goes on....check it out.
When I met with Bob Knox from Forestry Tasmania I asked him, "Do you think my death would have changed anything?"
He said, "No it wouldn't."
I then asked him, "Do you think my death will change anything?" He said, "I doubt it will."
Then this followed on September 1, 2008....
Forestry Tas Chairman Adrian Kloeden on the new Forestry Tasmania value "we are proud of who we are and what we do."
"We are proud of our past and we look forward to our future. We look beyond ill-informed comment in the media and know our value.
"I am proud to be the Chairman of Forestry Tasmania - and I have every right to be."

I was born in Tasmania. After working for some years on mainland Australia I returned to Tasmania.....
One of the jobs I had was working for the Tasmanian Health Department for almost 15 years in charge of buildings, engineering and biomedical engineering at a district hospital. I enjoyed the challenge of being pro actively involved in or with almost every department in the hospital and my contact with hospital staff, doctors, patients and the community. I was on sole call 24/7 for all those years with no out of hours technical relief. The police even came looking for me at times when the pager didn't work.
During this time I additionally provided oxygen therapy equipment support to respiratory patients in their homes for CIG/BOC Gases.
Through my work, and successfully understanding and managing my own asthma, I enjoyed offering equipment support to people with breathing difficulties. It troubles me the Asthma Foundation of Tasmania on the other hand will not come out and demand planned burns be stopped completely for all asthmatics. What are they playing at with people's lives? Please refer to the Asthma pages.
It is appalling that Tasmanian's have to suffer such deliberate acts of unnecessary air pollution by our forest industries and other land owners.
Our Government knows the health dangers of forestry wood smoke exposure on the community (we all do) and yet they allow forestry to do what they like with no restrictions and assumed immunity.
Our environmental laws (which were passed to protect us from this very type of pollution) mean nothing when the Government deliberately won't uphold them, gives exemptions, or more often does nothing.
Today, people are forced to give up their healthy outdoor lifestyle during the beautiful Autumn months while forestry smoke covers Tasmania. Our children are being taught in schools to go outside and get more sun on them in the cooler months.
What, to inhale this forestry smoke? Why would anybody want their kids inhaling that.
The damage done to our health doesn't just go away when the smoke dies down...
far from it as you can see from what has happened to me:
As a result of the forestry smoke this year (2008), I was admitted to the local hospital's Accident and Emergency department on April 13 with chronic airflow limitation about two weeks after the burns started (March 28) and after trying unsuccessfully to manage my condition at home. I was being deliberately suffocated.
I was treated and sent back home in amongst the smoke to recuperate.
As a result of having to remain indoors confined to a chair because of the the wood smoke outdoors and my exacerbation, I was back in A & E again on the May 25; this time the diagnosis was deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary emboli which is clots in the leg and lungs, a very serious life threatening condition (in addition to my induced asthma). I was released to free up a bed because I had learnt to inject myself at home with blood thinners. I now also take blood thinning tablets, for the rest of my life. I am in a great deal of pain in my leg because of the clots and breathing is extremely difficult because of them. I should be taking up a bed in hospital until I am well enough to be at home, but I feel guilty for the time I have been in there already taking up valuable resources!
One week latter (1/6/08) I had another trip to A & E to sort out clot pain that couldn't be managed at home. Then it's back outside to 'enjoy' Launceston and the Tamar Valley's smoke, not to mention further trips in it to my local doctor, chemist, pathology, hospital, specialist, and so it goes on for ever and ever.
You know, before all this I was quite well, but this is exactly what "cost shifting" is. Forestry finds a cheap way of getting rid of their residue (rubbish) by burning it. Other land owners are doing the same. Then Tasmanian's get known diseases like asthma, cardiovascular, diabetes and cancer from the smoke and so forestry's costs are shifted on to the State Health system, and it's people. My deliberately initiated ill health problems come at a cost to everyone. I have commenced a cost analysis for my health treatment as a result of planned burn smoke and I am led to believe the costs will rise greatly as a result of it, as time goes on.....and I am only one!

The Sicarii: The Jewish Daggermen With a Thirst for Roman Blood
The Sicarii - which may be translated as 'daggermen' from the Latin - were a group of Jewish zealots who lived during the 1 st century AD. The Sicarii intended to expel the Romans and their collaborators from Judaea, and resisted their rule. One of the tools they employed in their effort to achieve this end was assassination, especially in crowded places, which was calculated to strike fear into the hearts of their enemies. The Sicarii are often considered to be one of the earliest groups of terrorists in human history.
Rebel Beginnings
The Roman province of Judaea was formed in 6 AD, following the end of the Herodian Tetrarchy. The Romans had already established their presence in the area prior to the formation of this province, as the Herodians had been client-kings of the Romans. For certain Jews, the Roman occupation of their land was deemed illegitimate, and they were hoping to rid themselves of Roman rule. Several groups rose to challenge the Romans, one of which was the Sicarii.
The Zealots were another rebel group, including the Apostle St Simon the Zealot , represented here by Peter Paul Rubens (c. 1611), from his Twelve Apostles series ( Public Domain )
The Sicarii are mentioned in Josephus' The Jewish War . In Book VII, Chapter 8 of this piece of writing, Josephus mentions the Sicarii treated the Jews who had submitted to the Romans as enemies, and plundered their property. Josephus goes on to say that although the Sicarii claimed that those Jews had given up their freedom out of cowardice, this was in fact a "cloak for the barbarity which was made use of by them, and to colour over their own avarice".
Josephus also mentions the Sicarii in his Antiquities of the Jews . In Book XX, Chapter 8, Josephus mentions that the Sicarii were thus called because of their weapon of choice, "small swords, not much different in length from the Persian acinacæ, but somewhat crooked, and like the Roman sicae, [or sickles], as they were called". Moreover, it is from here that we learn about the movement's modus operandi : "they mingled themselves among the multitude at their festivals, when they were come up in crowds from all parts to the city to worship God, as we said before, and easily slew those that they had a mind to slay." In ' The Jewish War' , Josephus reports that the first victim of the Sicarii was the high priest Jonathan.

The First Jewish-Roman War
During the First Jewish-Roman War, which lasted from AD 66 – 73, the Sicarii were led by a Manahem, the son of Judas. Under Manahem's leadership, the Sicarii participated in the rebellion against Rome. Having captured the old Herodian fortress of Masada, and plundering its armoury, the Sicarii continued their march to Jerusalem, where they formed an alliance with the other Jewish rebel groups. Although the rebels succeeded in expelling the Romans from the city, there was soon conflict between the different groups.
The destruction of the Temple of Jerusalem by Hayez. In the year 70 AD, the Second Temple in Jerusalem was destroyed by the Roman army during the First Jewish-Roman War ( Public Domain )
Manahem intended to make himself the leader of the entire rebellion by having himself crowned as the messiah-king in the Temple. The other rebels were outraged by this, and the Sicarii were attacked by the rest of the rebels. Manahem was eventually defeated, captured, tortured, and then executed, along with many other followers. The surviving Sicarii, led by Eleazar ben Ya'ir, a relative of Manahem, fled to Masada, which served as their stronghold for the rest of the war. The Sicarii did not participate any further in the rebellion against the Romans, and limited their military actions to the plundering of Jewish villages near their fortress.

Death Before Dishonor
Masada was one of the last strongholds held by the Jewish rebels during their revolt against the Romans. In AD 73, the Romans under Lucius Flavius Silva began to besiege this fortress. When Eleazar, the Sicarii leader, realised that all was lost, he gathered the remaining defenders together, and told them what the Romans would do to them and their families if they were captured alive. By this means, he convinced them to kill their families, and then commit suicide. When the Romans captured the fortress, they found that all the Jews in the fortress, with the exception of two women and five children, had chosen to die by their own swords, rather than surrender to the Romans.

Zeref Awakens
Zeref Awakened
Zeref Awakened is the 250th chapter of Hiro Mashima's Fairy Tail.
On the Grimoire Heart Airship, Zeref reveals the secret of his Magic to the three Grimoire Heart Mages. Elsewhere, Meredy forgives Ultear for what she did, and the two decide live on together. Back on the airship, Hades meets his end at the Black Wizard's hand. After the deed is done, Zeref looks off into the distance and senses something sinister approaching Tenrou Island.
Kain and Rustyrose kneeling before Zeref
With Zeref standing in front of Hades, Kain, and Rustyrose, the remaining two members of the Seven Kin Of Purgatory kneel in front of the Black wizard. Hades can't believe his eyes, and smiles as he tells his subordinates to bring him the keys. However, Rustyrose and Kain can't move at all, and Zeref announces that there is no need for the keys as he is already awake. Though Hades is shocked by the announcement, Zeref states that there was never such a requirement, and asks how many lives Hades took in order to acquire the "keys". He then mocks Hades for believing such a myth, and reveals that he had never entered a sleeping state, and standing in front of them is the real Black Wizard Zeref.
Zeref telling Hades to repent
Hearing this, Hades screams that it is impossible, having seen it with his own eyes that Ultear defeated him. Zeref, however, states that it was his strength at that time. He then continues his explanation, saying that he saw countless people die in war 400 years ago, and realized how valuable lives really are. That also started his curse. The more he thought about the preciousness of lives, the more his body will take them against his will. In order to stop such, he has to forget the importance of lives. Zeref continues by stating that they are the ones who caused him to summon Acnologia, and he will punish them. Before Hades can ask him anything else, Zeref announces the two crimes they caused to him, and then prepares a spell.
Ultear stabs herself
On a rowing boat in the vast ocean, Ultear tries to cheer Meredy up. Meredy, however, asks if Ultear was really the one who attacked her hometown. Ultear answers with a firm yes, but says that she did plan to confess everything someday. Ultear says that the life she has is her first, and the completed Arc of Time in the Ultimate Magic World would start her second, true life. Because she believed that she can restart her first life, she would do anything, no matter how cruel it is, in order to reach her goal. Hearing this, Meredy stands up, while Ultear continues saying that she has been a fool that still desires happiness despite all she had done. She then states that she's not asking for forgiveness, and knows that Meredy hates her to the point of wanting to kill her. With a knife stabbed into her body, Ultear says that she can't let Meredy dirty her hands anymore, and jumps into the ocean. As she falls, Ultear says that she believes Meredy will find her happiness, and tells her that she loves her.
As Ultear drowns, she thinks that dying in her mother's arms, the sea, isn't bad either. Meredy, however, saves her, and links their feeling together. With her Magic connecting her to Ultear, Meredy cries, saying that Ultear was the one who brought her up and that she forgives her. Meredy continues to cry as she asks Ultear not to leave her behind because she loves her as well, and that they will live on together.
Meanwhile, a powerful beam strikes through the Grimoire Heart ship, and Hades is killed. Rustyrose and Kain are surprised at their masters untimely death. Zeref then notices something coming, and wonders if it's Acnologia.

Olympus Camedia C315 Zoom digital camera introduction : The new Olympus C315 Zoom is a stylish and attractively priced camera. Building on the success of its predecessor the C310 Zoom, pronounced ?Best Digital Budget Compact Camera' by TIPA in 2004, the new Olympus C-315 Zoom boasts the same special blend of design, performance, handling and affordability. It's resolution has also been significantly increased to 5.1 million pixels to provide exceptional picture quality but what won't be changing is the camera's great value for money. Available from the end of July, the Olympus C315 Zoom comes highly recommended for first-time digital camera buyers and all those who are budget conscious yet still demand high-quality results.
The Olympus C315 Zoom is designed to make digital photography accessible and affordable for ambitious beginners. Its predecessor's winning combination of ease-of-use and high-quality has now been crowned with the additional advantage of 5.1 million pixels, enabling large print-outs and detailed image cropping. The new resolution complements other features, such as a bright 2.8x optical zoom lens, together with the 3.5x digital zoom brilliant close-ups are possible.
The C-315Z also offers a Super Macro mode, enabling successful shots from as close as 2cm from the subject. Five automatic scene programmes are available to help compose the best image and provide added convenience and for those valuing even greater versatility, a movie recording function has been added so movies can be recorded and conveniently reviewed on the camera's integrated 4.6cm LCD.
As you would expect from a user-friendly camera, the C-315 Zoom supports PictBridge, removing the need for a PC to print from the camera. Just connect straight to a compatible printer, such as the Olympus P-10 printer, to instantly print glossy photographs. Alternatively, effortless, one-touch printing is also possible with printers that incorporate ImageLink print system. Images are saved onto removable xD memory cards (a 16MB card is supplied with the camera but these small, fast and durable cards are now available in capacities of up to 1GB). For users without printer access or those on the move, xD cards can also easily be taken to any photo dealer to obtain first-class prints.
• Olympus Master software for easy file handling and editing provided.

Andre Holland's Five Favorite Films
The Moonlight Actor talks about the old days of renting VCRs and the necessity of a shirtless Paul Newman.
by Grae Drake | October 28, 2016 | Comments
Photo by Ray Tamarra/Getty Images
Fans of Andre Holland on American Horror Story: Roanoake and The Knick can now see him on the big screen in Moonlight, which has earned rave reviews across the board. His Five Favorite Films, listed here, reflect the diversity and quality that he demonstrates as an actor. Movies from several decades and genres populate his list, and he shows his passion for the art as he discusses them. See the list here:
The Bourne Identity (2002) 83%
The one that, if I'm sitting on the couch and it comes on, I can't turn away — The Bourne movies. I will watch them a million times, and any time they're on, which is often [laughs], I gotta watch them. I just loved that character. I thought it was so fascinating and, honestly, that's the kind of part that I would love to play one day. So, I love watching it and watching the way Matt Damon played it. It's just so exciting, to me. I don't know why, but I can't get enough of it. I think there is a little bit of… just the escapism of it all – running through the streets of Germany or all the different cities that he went to and trying to figure out who you are is really cool. It's just a cool conceit.
Nothing But a Man (1963) 95%
The movie that I always watch before doing just about any project — and certainly before doing this one — is called Nothing But A Man. It's a classic film. Ivan Dixon played the lead character and it's just about this black man trying to make his way through the world. But it's a beautiful, beautiful film, and it breaks my heart every time I watch it. It's just one of the most extraordinary movies I've ever seen. I was introduced to it by a friend of mine; I was doing a play — probably eight or nine years ago — and my friend, Aunjanue Ellis, who is an actress, put me on to it and I had not seen it before. Now I watch it all the time. It's great – I think it was in the 1960s. Ivan Dixon and Abbey Lincoln -– it just was super. An incredible film.
Paris Blues (1961) 67%
And then kind of parallel to [Nothing but a Man] — number three would probably be my most favorite romance, Paris Blues. Sidney Poitier, Diahann Carroll, Paul Newman, and Joanne Woodward. I love it. The dialogue in that film is some of the best I've ever seen. And Sidney Poitier, I think, gives one of his best performances. And it's so, so sexy, that movie.
RT: Yeah, that's right, it's been so long since I've seen it. And Paul Newman – I remember several of the films he was in that way, actually, as well. I was like, "Man, I feel too young to watch this."
[Laughing] Yeah. He's got these scenes where he's in the bedroom with his shirt off, and you can just see it. I mean, he was such a heartthrob, you know. You can just see the filmmaker thinking, "We have to get a shot of Paul Newman with his shirt off [laughing]." And they got a few of them.
RT: We're not made of stone. The filmmaker was right.
True, true.
Up (2009) 98%
For some reason, there's another movie that I really love, that always breaks my heart and makes me cry, every time I watch it, and that's the animated movie Up.
RT: Oh, my God, yes. We could have a whole therapy session about that movie.
Yes, absolutely. Just the opening sequence is, like… I can't even get through that without breaking down. It's so beautiful.
RT: That movie made me really happy for 3D glasses because it covered my tears.
Yeah. That's hilarious. I know what you mean with those 3D glasses. One of the first times I saw it, I was on a date and, I mean, you talk about trying to hide some tears? I was trying to maintain my cool, but I could not do it. It was such a beautiful movie.
RT: Do you think that made the date go better, because it made you so emotionally vulnerable?
I think it did, actually, because, as I recall, she was crying a lot, too, and I think it definitely put us both into a good, nice, open, vulnerable place. And it's funny — where I live in New York, there's a coffee shop around the corner from me that I go to all the time, basically, and in going to it, there's a guy who I would always see there, and we would always talk and chat. Someone said, "Oh, yeah, you know he's a writer and he used to be an actor," and blah, blah, blah. I didn't know his work, I'm ashamed to say, but, at the end of Up when the name Tom McCarthy flashed across, I thought, "Wait a minute! That's the dude from the coffee shop." I guess I was living under a rock that I didn't know who he was. But anyway, I just was even more of a fan of his. He's such a talented man.
Oliver! (1968) 82%
Number five — this is a tough one. I think the one I would like to say, though, is one — when I was a kid, this is the one that I watched all the time. I had it on VHS tape and probably wore the tape out – I know just about every line from the movie. I don't know why I loved it so much, but the movie Oliver. The musical version. The Lionel Bart one. Ron Moody was the guy that played Fagin. Growing up, we never went to the movies. I grew up in a pretty rural town in Alabama, and we just never went, and so our big excitement for the weekend would be to go to the video store and… We also didn't have a VCR, but you could, back in the day, rent a VCR. So, we would rent a VCR, and for some reason, we owned the movie. We owned two movies; we owned Oliver and we owned The Wiz. Whenever we would rent the VCR, we would watch the movies that we rented, but then, because we had the VCR, we'd always end up playing Oliver and The Wiz again. I think that's probably why I fell in love with it. And then, ironically, it wound up being the first play that I ever did in community theatre. Although I'm [also] obsessed with The Wiz. It terrified me, as a kid. That was gonna be the other one I was gonna say. It was either Oliver or The Wiz, but The Wiz is just amazing.
Moonlight is now open in limited release.

Visit the Safety Harbor Pier at sunset for a peaceful and perfect way to end your day.
history & hospitality
Moss-draped oaks line the brick streets of this charming small town, where creative cuisine is plentiful and a landmark resort crowns the main thoroughfare. Safety Harbor has been a welcome respite for centuries, from the Tocobaga tribe, whose temple mound sits on the waterfront, to the 20th-century sun-seekers seeking rejuvenation in the natural springs here, to modern-day visitors seeking good food, craft beer and a warm welcome.
Check Out Charming Safety Harbor
Discover the picturesque town of Safety Harbor – where you can start your day with a spectacular sunrise, pamper yourself at the historic Safety Harbor Resort & Spa, and stroll through scenic parks and a bustling Main Street.
Whether you're in town for a spa weekend or for an afternoon of boutiquing and craft-beer tasting, Safety Harbor has good things in store, and plenty of green space to relax and reconnect with nature. The city's eastern edge sits along the Old Tampa Bay waterfront, which includes a popular fishing pier.
The fresh, cool springs that flow out of the ground here were once believed to be Hernando de Soto's magical Fountain of Youth. The site of the springs is now home to the famous Safety Harbor Resort and Spa, founded in 1925 and a U.S. Historic Landmark, a Florida Heritage Landmark and a member of the Historic Hotels of America. Here, there's an entire subterranean floor (where the springs are located) dedicated to spa services – and you don't have to be a guest at the resort to plan a day of pampering and wellness.
The relaxation continues with Safety Harbor's strollable Main Street, where you can pop into shops and galleries for locally crafted products. Or, pick up something to-go at a family-owned shop or cafe and enjoy a picnic at a local park.
Visitors can see ancient Native American ceremonial mounds on the grounds of Philippe Park.
Art lovers will want to delve into the city's many cultural offerings at Safety Harbor Museum & Cultural Center, where you can create your own masterpiece at one of the classes or workshops they offer (tip: they have a great video about Safety Harbor's history, too). The Safety Harbor Art and Music Center is a great place to find musical performances and art workshops (look for the pink elephant sculpture).
For just a few dollars, you can take in the sights (as well as local insights) on a walking art or history tour of the city.
"Art at the World's Most Wondrous Building in the Universe" is what you'll find at Safety Harbor Art & Music Center, along with concerts, events and workshops.
Safety Harbor Art & Music Center
The Safety Harbor Galleria is a great place to pick up fun and colorful mementos of your visit to this charming, small town.
Best Brews
Check out the super-cool Crooked Thumb Brewery in Safety Harbor, housed in a warehouse that was previously an auto body and paint shop. The indoor space is rustic and industrial, while the outdoor beer garden offers plenty of shaded seating.
Crooked Thumb Brewery
Drinking & Fishing
Safety Harbor's Bar Fly is a casual combination of bar, seafood restaurant and shop. Order a toasted coconut mojito and swap fishing tales with the locals.
Bar fly & Saltwater Grill
Speakeasy-Style
Take a trip back to the Prohibition era at Gigglewaters Social Club & Screening Room in Safety Harbor. This speakeasy-style bar and restaurant also offers a one-screen classic movie theater.
Gigglewaters Social Club & Screening Room
While Safety Harbor offers several lodging options, none are more popular than the Safety Harbor Resort & Spa, which is just steps from the action on Main Street. Situated on 22 acres on the west shore of Tampa Bay, the resort was built on the site of natural mineral springs that were long thought to restore youth and vitality. Today, three swimming pools and a renovated 50,000-square-foot spa and fitness center add to the appeal.
For more casual accommodation options, check into "Old Florida" style Safety Harbor Motel, which sits right off Main Street, or Mar Bay Motel & Suites, a vintage spot dating back to 1942 that's been family run for three decades.

A: Well I fixed the problem by installing iRedMail package on my CentOS 6. I also bought SSL certificate from Comondo Positive SSL so emails are trusted. Not to forget, OpendKIM and SPF records MUST BE ADDED to DNS records. If you do this then there is no way google will reject your email. Also make sure your domain is not added to blacklist, you can check that with tons of sites.

FINAL 2019 Bracket – March 170
by Crimson Cast on March 17, 2019 in Uncategorized
Well, here goes nothing. The final 2019 bracket projection and seed list are found below.
Bracket Update 03.16.190
Shuffling all over the map — at the top and at the bottom. Some bid-stealing shoves an ACC team off the table, and I do a re-evaluation of the bottom third of the bracket.
Not as many shifts as we thought! This is the update heading into the games of March 15th.

Final Bracket – 03.11.180
by Crimson Cast on March 11, 2018 in Bracketology
It's time to publish my final bracket guess for this cycle. I'd like to thank Davidson for taking at least one of the bubble teams out of consideration. Here's what we've got.
Last Four In: Texas, USC, Oklahoma, St. Mary's
I went through a lot of soul-searching and evaluation of the teams involved in this process, and as you've probably noticed, it's been hard to settle on a consistent bottom part of the at-large field. That is largely due to the extreme differences between the resumes, and a general uncertainty about whether the selection committee will favor top wins, or favor breadth and depth of metrics, or somehow try to split the baby (which they have been known to do in the past). I don't think Texas and Oklahoma should really be this low, but I have a hard time seeing the committee moving them ahead of the teams right in front of them on the S-Curve. USC is another one that's hard to figure — their power numbers say "we should be higher", but they have zero wins vs at-large teams in the field and should be sweating a lot more than most people should think. I'm very dissatisfied with St. Mary's as my last team in, but I find it impossible to believe that the committee is going to leave out a 28-win team with a middling SOS who won at Gonzaga. I feel like any of the first four teams left out are better than St Mary's, but I doubt it will matter.
First Four Out: Louisville, Oklahoma State, Syracuse, Marquette
At the end of the day, I ended up backing Oklahoma State out of the field. Their best wins are impressive, and they don't really have bad losses, but they have so many losses. And their non-conference SOS is not something that the committee traditionally likes to reward. And their RPI would be the lowest ever for an entrant into the field as an at-large. I think they probably get in without San Diego State and Davidson stealing bids. Louisville also came close, but they ultimately didn't have enough wins of note. Syracuse and Marquette were very close as well, and Syracuse's SOS almost saved them in my eyes, but again, not enough wins.
Bracket:
Bracket notes:
I am wagering that the committee will pump up the seeding for Arizona (who really should be a 4) and Providence (who's probably in the 9-10 range) purely due to their conference tournament performances.
I think the AAC title game is happening too late to affect either Cincinnati or Houston's seeding. I also don't think that Tennessee would've moved up to the two line even if they'd beaten Kentucky.
Biggest teams I'm uncertain of in terms of their seed: Alabama (how much do they get rewarded?), Florida State, Kansas State, Missouri (does the DWI affect them?), Davidson, North Carolina State, USC.
For the final one seed, I think the committee will opt for Xavier's relatively pristine record over giving it to a 10-loss UNC team. And there's no reasonable argument for giving it to Duke over UNC at this point.

Bracket Update – 03.10.18 before the games0
After a fun day of basketball on Friday, we're locked and loaded for the last 30 or so hours of action. We've had a couple of changes since yesterday, so let's get right to it.
Last Four In: St. Mary's, UCLA, Baylor, USC
Alabama moves out of the Last Four In and safely into the field with their neutral court demolition of Auburn, and that ends up pushing St. Mary's down into the Last Four In. At this point, I think St. Mary's (and St. Bonaventure, for that matter) are safe in the field — we're just nitpicking resumes for the final couple of spots. For the last three spots, you'll notice that USC moved back in as the last team in the field. Much as I'm not excited about USC's resume, I think the argument is there for them to get in ahead of Marquette. Better power numbers, more Tier 1 and Tier 2 wins, comparable strength of schedule, and USC has advanced to the Pac 12 Title Game, while Marquette lost early. I also think that Arizona State has likely fallen out of the Last Four In.
First Four Out: Marquette, Arizona State, Louisville, Syracuse
All of these teams have the same thing in common – they can no longer help themselves.
Next Four Out: Notre Dame, Oregon, Penn State, Mississippi State
No changes here.
It's incredibly close between UNC, Duke, and Xavier for the 4-5-6 spots in the S-curve. UNC is a tough sell to me personally as a 1 seed because of their nine losses, but they have an objectively better resume than Xavier, and they've beaten Duke two out of three times. So I've got them fourth, Xavier fifth, and Duke sixth, which ends up working well for bracketing purposes
What to do with Michigan State? Do we seed them on their power numbers (among the best in the country) or on their Tier 1 wins (far fewer than the teams around them)? I've still got them (barely) as a 3 seed, but wouldn't be shocked to see them as a 4.
Auburn probably should fall to a 4 seed.
I'm not sure how secure Nevada really is at this point. Their resume is a mixed bag at best. Only one win against an at-large caliber team, but their power numbers are strong. They look a lot like St. Mary's and St. Bonaventure right now, with the notable exception that they won the MWC regular season title while the other two did not.
by Crimson Cast on March 9, 2018 in Bracketology
We're back after a two-day hiatus. Lots of little changes, and I keep zeroing in on various aspects of the S-Curve and finding conflicts to resolve. As a result, there have been some shifts in a couple of areas, which I'll detail below the bracket.
Last Four In: UCLA, Baylor, Arizona State, Alabama
UCLA's resume is buoyed by a couple of key early-season victories, plus acceptable power numbers. If they beat Arizona they'll be safely in the field. Baylor blew a chance to demonstrate any sort of desire to enter the tournament with their loss yesterday, but I still think their overall profile gets them in. Arizona State is hanging on by a thread, and can't help itself anymore. Alabama is tricky — they have a lot of really good wins, and while their resume is very heavy on home victories, they also now have a neutral court win vs A&M and a road win vs Florida, and both of those wins are superior to what Marquette or Louisville have. They also have 14 losses already, and it's tough to see a 15-loss team getting into the field. Winning today vs Auburn would solve a lot of the remaining questions about their place.
First Four Out: Marquette, Louisville, USC, Syracuse
Unfortunately for the Eagles and Cards, they are on the outside looking in. Lots of people have USC in, but the more I look at their resume, the more I don't like it. If Middle Tennessee doesn't get an at-large bid (and they won't), then USC will have zero wins against teams who got into the field on their own merits (New Mexico State doesn't count). So for USC, I think it's either win the Pac 12 or miss the tournament — a neutral court win vs Oregon isn't going to get you anywhere. Syracuse is close, but can't help themselves anymore.
Notre Dame came relatively close, but despite good power numbers and road/neutral record, they just haven't shown enough on balance this season. Oregon doesn't really have a path to the tournament as an at-large; their best bet is to win the Pac 12. Penn State isn't going anywhere. Mississippi State has a razor-thin margin for getting in, but it's going to require getting to the SEC title game and then losing to someone good.
Here's some bracket things to note:
I really like Duke's chances at a 1 seed. If they beat UNC I think they'll definitely get the fourth 1 seed ahead of Xavier. I don't see North Carolina getting a 1 seed, though. Even with a bevy of quadrant 1 wins, UNC still has nine losses on the year.
Michigan finally moved one slot ahead of Michigan State on my S-curve, which is why the Wolverines are in Detroit and MSU is in Wichita. I keep looking for the the big wins on MSU's resume and I can't find them.
Auburn could still move ahead of Purdue if they can win the SEC Tournament and beat Tennessee along the way.
Cincinnati is probably stuck on the 2 line.
Xavier can move back on the 1 line if they beat Villanova on a neutral floor — that would probably be enough to get them back ahead of Duke.
I'm most curious where the committee decides to put Nevada and Rhode Island at this point. Their resumes are RPI-bloated but don't really hold up very well beyond that.
Bracket Update – 03.06.180
Here's a tip, kids — never bracket when tired and/or sick. I made a mistake and didn't get all my team sheets refreshed last night, so as a result I left Marquette out of the equation entirely. They are back in now, so please, people of Milwaukee, accept my apologies.
Now that the sheets are refreshed, there hasn't been that much shifting since yesterday. Here are the notable changes:
I've still got Duke on the 1 line (in opposition to most of the rest of the bracketing world at this point), but I believe their recent play, combined with their predictive rankings and quality of wins, will land them there on Sunday, barring an unforeseen upset in the ACC tournament, or someone right below them getting hot. I did move Xavier back to the 1 line, so now Kansas is the 5th overall team on the S-curve.
Wichita State and Gonzaga both felt underrated to me, so they're up a bit, at the expense of Texas Tech.
St. Mary's ended up both hurting and helping themselves yesterday. The loss to BYU bumped BYU up to a Tier 1 win for St. Mary's, although that may go away quickly given how badly Gonzaga obliterated the Cougars in the WCC title game. Meanwhile, St. Mary's overall resume looks pretty bad. Lots of wins against nobody of note, and I'm not sure their power rankings are going to save them. Right now they're still in, but if some bubble teams get hot, I could see them sliding into the play-in games…or out of the field entirely.
Last Four In: Oklahoma State, Marquette, USC, UCLA
I heard Lunardi say that Oklahoma State needed to beat Kansas again to even have a shot. I don't understand why. They have seven wins against at-large caliber teams in the field, and their losses are all tier 1 or tier 2. Plus they have a season sweep of a team that's a borderline 1 seed. Their power metrics are slightly lower than some of their bubble competitors, but what other bubble team features that kind of resume? None. As for the rest — Marquette deserves their current place here, but needs to avoid a bad loss in the Big East tournament. Like, don't lose to DePaul on Wednesday. That would be a bad idea.
First Four Out: Louisville, Syracuse, Providence, Alabama
Syracuse won a game they couldn't afford to lose, so…good for them. That's not going to be enough, since Wake Forest is a tier 3 win. Louisville will probably move past both USC and UCLA if they can beat Florida State on a neutral floor. Providence and Alabama have ample opportunities to play themselves in.
Next Four Out: LSU, Boise State, Utah, Penn State
Instead of talking about who's on this list, let's talk about who isn't: Notre Dame. For some reason, the Irish have become the cause celebre of Joe Lunardi this week as a potential at-large. While I would never say anything is impossible with the NCAA selection committee, it'd be pretty surprising if they somehow vaulted the Irish past a bunch of teams that have actually played decently during conference play and placed them in the tournament. Even a win vs Virginia Tech tomorrow probably won't be enough to get the Irish into the last 4 in.
The bracket is back after a bit of a hiatus due to the Big Ten Tournament. Lots of changes since we last did this one. This includes all games that finished as of 11:15 PM on Monday 3/5. All we're waiting on is St. Mary's, and a loss there would probably only drop them a seed line, so we'll just run with this.
Last Four In: Oklahoma State, USC, UCLA, Louisville
I'm expecting this group to be incredibly fluid throughout the next five days, because there are hardly any margins separating these teams (or, for that matter, the teams above them and below them). Oklahoma State is impossible to ignore, given their Kansas sweep and overall profile. USC and UCLA have just the right combo of power ratings and not-terrible wins to boost them above some of their competition. Louisville really needs to not lose against Florida State, and then also hope that the teams below them on the bubble don't win more impressive games than that.
Last Four Out: Syracuse, Alabama, LSU, Providence
Syracuse needs to win games as well, and they may end up with a slightly easier path to getting into the field than Louisville. Alabama needs to show a pulse, first and foremost. Then win a game of import away from Tuscaloosa. LSU needs to go on a run. Providence is an odd team to figure – they might be safely in, they might be this far out. I am very unimpressed with their overall profile. Three losses in Tier 4, including one just a couple weeks ago at home, plus a composite power ranking that just doesn't look favorable versus the teams they are competing against.
Next Four Out: Boise State, Utah, Penn State, Mississippi State
Penn State did themselves some favors in the Big Ten tournament, but not enough favors. Now they sit for a week while teams get to impress the committee. Boise State better hope that they just win the Mountain West.

I am in New York and I am meeting Yaron Koren. Yaron is one of the Semantic MediaWiki greats and he is the man behind the referata.com websites. I consider the referata websites "best of breed" and I am a fan of the Food finds wiki. Food finds is about finding restaurants all over the world.
When you are getting information from all over the world, it makes sense to use a "universal language" and as such it can be argued that English qualifies. This does not mean that there is no room for Semantic MediaWikis in other languages. Yaron told me that he was impressed by the large amount of localisations that came his way when all his extensions became supported at translatewiki.net.
My challenge is to have a best of breed Semantic MediaWiki in another language, any other language. But would it not be great when this language was something "exotic" like Arabic, Tagalog or Gujarati. I am not suggesting that Semantic MediaWiki is completely localised in those languages, but they can be.
Would this not be cool ?
