Q: how to display the result of a DateTimePicker in a label good morning
I have the following code for a DateTimePicker, and I would like that when I press on the button, the date is shown in the Label (result), could you help me?
DateTimePicker works inherit a xamarin ContentView instead of just an Entry, xamarin and then creates the Stacklayout which xamarin add the Entry and the date and time xamarin pickers to content.
public class DateTimePicker2 : ContentView, INotifyPropertyChanged
    {

public  Entry Fecha { get; private set; } = new Entry() { TextColor = Color.Black, HorizontalTextAlignment=TextAlignment.Center };
        public DatePicker DatePicker { get; private set; } = new DatePicker() { MaximumDate = DateTime.Today, IsVisible = false };
        public TimePicker TimePicker { get; private set; } = new TimePicker() { IsVisible = false };
        string stringFormat { get; set; }
        public string StringFormat { get { return stringFormat ?? "dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm"; } set { stringFormat = value; } }
        public DateTime DateTimed
        {
            get { return (DateTime)GetValue(DateTimeProperty); }
            set { SetValue(DateTimeProperty, value); OnPropertyChanged("DateTime"); }
        }

        private TimeSpan Time
        {
            get
            {
                return TimeSpan.FromTicks(DateTimed.Ticks);

            }
            set
            {
                DateTimed = new DateTime(DateTimed.Date.Ticks).AddTicks(value.Ticks);

            }
        }

        private DateTime date
        {
            get
            {
                return DateTimed.Date;
            }
            set
            {
                DateTimed = new DateTime(DateTimed.TimeOfDay.Ticks).AddTicks(value.Ticks);
            }
        }

        BindableProperty DateTimeProperty = BindableProperty.Create("DateTime", typeof(DateTime), typeof(DateTimePicker2), DateTime.Now, BindingMode.TwoWay, propertyChanged: DTPropertyChanged);

        public DateTimePicker2()
        {
            BindingContext = this;

            Content = new StackLayout()
            {
                Children =
            {
                DatePicker,
                TimePicker,
                Fecha
            }
            };

            TimePicker.Unfocused += (sender, args) => Time = TimePicker.Time;
            DatePicker.Focused += (s, a) => UpdateEntryText();

            GestureRecognizers.Add(new TapGestureRecognizer() { Command = new Command(() => DatePicker.Focus()) });
            Fecha.Focused += (sender, args) => { Device.BeginInvokeOnMainThread(() => DatePicker.Focus()); };
            DatePicker.Unfocused += (sender, args) => { Device.BeginInvokeOnMainThread(() => { TimePicker.Focus(); date = DatePicker.Date; UpdateEntryText();}); };
        }

        private void UpdateEntryText()
        {
            Fecha.Text = DateTimed.ToString(StringFormat);

        }

        static void DTPropertyChanged(BindableObject bindable, object oldValue, object newValue)
        {
            var timePicker = (bindable as DateTimePicker2);
             timePicker.UpdateEntryText();

        }
    }

in Xaml it is used like this
         <local:DateTimePicker2    ></local:DateTimePicker2>
         <Button Clicked="Button_Clicked"> </Button>
         <Label x:Name="result"></Label>

A: assign a name to your control
<local:DateTimePicker2 x:Name="dt2" />
<Button Clicked="Button_Clicked" />
<Label x:Name="result" />

then in your handler
protected void Button_Clicked(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
  result.Text = dt2.Datetimed.ToString();
}


yet there seems to be confusion about Experience Design and Experience; how these terms are used and what they stand for.
The term experience is often tantamount for the interaction between a user and a digital interface therefore Experience Design gets connoted with the discipline of designing for that exact purpose.
The increased use of experience as a terminology is the second evolutionary step hitting the design discipline after the big shift that marked the last two decades towards human-centered design. Nevertheless experience in its purest form is defined by generally covering "everything personally encountered, undergone, or lived through" (Roto et al. 2011, p. 6). Therefore, depreciating Experience Design to the sole act of designing the interaction of a user with a interface is deceptive.
Experience Design is most similar to the well know discipline of Service Design, yet distinguishing from it under a magnifier and in its execution, but let's take it step by step.
User Experience, as a wide spread discipline in most companies, is focusing on the design of a single customer touchpoint. This includes both online and offline touchpoints, yet it's more commonly addressing digital touchpoints, also because the term user is connoted with digital interfaces.
The discipline of Customer Experience is extending the previous understanding by looking at the entire customer journey and designing the full array of touchpoints for a consistent experience across all channels.
Finally, Service Design is a further extension and has found the most industry acceptance, since a wide range of companies are shifting their focus from manufacturing products to delivering services. Also, a wide range of young companies have services as their sole offering.
As a discipline Service Design is not only holistically designing all touchpoints across the customer journey but also considering the process of delivering this service from the organization perspective. Thereby the focus of Service Design is split up between delivering a good consumer experience and improving the backstage processes. Furthermore, designing a new service mainly aims at creating new business opportunities.
So, what is the difference between service design and experience design?
For that, we have to go back to the purest definition of experience. In human psychology experience gets equated with consciousness, thus is limitless, except for the moment where a consumer is not conscious. In other words, whenever the user is not asleep and therefore conscious, he is experiencing.
What becomes clear is that Experience Design is neither limited to the interaction of a user with an interface, nor to the single service delivered by a company. Rather Experience Design becomes the task of designing for a conscious consumer and therefore extending the mind-set from a consumer-product interaction and focusing on a consumer-company interaction model considering everything the company says and does as an entity, but also its employees and stakeholders as key influential factors for the final consumer experience.
The key of Experience Design for a company is authenticity. While the focus for Service Design lies in control, the control of every phase of a service offering, down to the greeting line by the sales staff.
While this might sound very theoretical, there are real life example of the successful adherence of this mind-set. Patagonia shifted from a pure costumer-product interaction focus to a much more holistic customer-company focus. Similarly, Zappos is applying Experience Design, by defining some corner stones leaving the employees with the freedom to act in the company's best interest.
As Service Design is about shaping a service down to the meticulous details of it, it can best be described as a pixel graphic. Experience Design however is addressing a conscious customer that will experience much more then just the service itself. For example, the company values, the latest news about the company's production facility or the behavior of the store staff when they feel unobserved. Thus Experience Design can best be represented by a vector graphic, which consists of setting up a few rules and letting the experience flow.
Experience Design starts by creating shared values and understandings of what the company stands for. In a second instance you should have faith in the parties involved in delivering a service to also deliver authentically in the companies best interest.

Impact Players: How to Take the Lead, Play Bigger, and Multiply Your Impact
By Liz Wiseman
Read by Liz Wiseman
Liz Wiseman HarperAudio, HarperCollins 9780063063327
Why do some people break through and make an impact while others get stuck going through the motions? In every organization there are Impact Players—those indispensable colleagues who can be counted on in critical situations and who consistently receive high-profile assignments and new opportunities. Whether they are on center stage or behind the scenes, managers know who these top players are, understand their worth, and want more of them on their team. While their impact is obvious, it's not always clear what actually makes these professionals different from their peers. In Impact Players, New York Times bestselling author and researcher Liz Wiseman reveals the secrets of these stellar professionals who play the game at a higher level. Drawing on insights from leaders at top companies, Wiseman explains what the most influential players are doing differently, how small and seemingly insignificant differences in how we think and act can make an enormous impact, and why—with a little coaching—this mindset is available to everyone who wants to contribute at their highest level. Based on a study of 170 top contributors, Wiseman identifies the mindsets that prevent otherwise smart, capable people from contributing to their full potential and the five practices that differentiate Impact Players: While others do their job, Impact Players figure out the real job to be done. While others wait for direction, Impact Players step up and lead. While others escalate problems, Impact Players move things across the finish line. While others attempt to minimize change, Impact Players are learning and adapting to change. While others add to the load, the Impact Players make heavy demands feel lighter. Wiseman makes clear that these practices—and the right mindset—can help any employee contribute at their fullest and shows leaders how they can raise the level of play for everyone on the team. Impact Players is your playbook for the new workplace. Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.

I'm feeling very grumpy today because my new GP won't give me Azathioprine on a repeat prescription but is insisting I come into the surgery to see them each time. I get that they have to monitor blood tests but why do they actually have to see me?
Perhaps it doesn't seem like a big deal, but I feel like I have so many hospital appointments lately- having surgery on perianal fistula on Monday, and starting infliximab infusions on Thursday- it just seems like one more appointment that could be avoided!
Do other people have this problem? How does your (uk) GP handle repeat prescriptions for drugs that need bloods monitoring?
That seems ridiculous, especially given the state of the NHS these days. Mine have a little booklet all my results are updated in every month. Only once have I ever had an issue and that was because my WBC was low. They just rang me and got me to come in for another test which was fine. No other problems other than that?
Have they always done this or is it a recent thing? I'm wondering if there is something else they are concerned about and want to keep tabs on you? Otherwise it doesn't make any sense!
I've moved house so it's a new GP. I made an appointment with them when I first moved to go through all the medications, and the GP said she wouldn't put the Aza on repeat because of the bloods monitoring, and gave me a blood test form - but I just assumed I could come to the reception and request it. I was actually planning to give them a copy of some bloods that I got done at the hospital, because I don't like doing them more than I have to. But the receptionist said I could't request it and would have to see the doctor, so I had to make an appointment for Monday week. I pointed out it was rather inefficient which the receptionist wasn't too pleased with.
That would be amazing if I could just do that!
When I was on aza I had to get tested once a month for my liver. And, the last time I had gotten tested they yanked me off of it saying my test showed it was abnormal. But, up until then my pharmacy had to check with my doctor every time I refilled (I believe). Not the easiest thing to do, especially when I visited my grandparents across the states. But, I managed.
So you request the repeat with the pharmacy direct, and they contact the doctor? That sounds like a reasonable system. I don't mind getting the blood tests, just want them to be able to review them without me physically sitting in front of the Doctor.
I'm going to work on my GP to see if they can implement a more efficient system. Surely it's possible for me to request Rx online, they check latest bloods, then they send the prescription to pharmacy.
Mine did this when I moved GP from my hometown to university. I expressed to the nurse that it was a little bit ridiculous considering I'd been on azathioprine for 5 years and had Crohn's for 10! She admitted that although the system was in place to keep people safe, i.e. to keep them from skipping their blood tests and maybe developing liver problems, she agreed that I could get a phone appointment when I needed a new prescription and mention when my last bloods were and they'd sign off on a new prescription. Do you think that seems like something your GP would do?? It's SO annoying trying to schedule appointments all the time when my old GP would just hand me a repeat and I could go to the pharmacy whenever I needed!!
When I was still on Aza they would do blood work every three months. My GI would write for refills for the three months to last until the next appointment.
Current Medications: Lialda 4.8g daily, Azathioprine 100mg daily, Prednisone 20 mg daily. B12, Folic Acid, Primal Defense probiotic.
I will ask them- not sure they do phone appointments. I'm going to press for them just doing repeat prescriptions and checking the blood test results themselves first though. I'm not going to be able to forget to do them (not that I would anyway), because I'm going to be on infliximab infusions, so they will be done every 8 weeks at the infusion clinic, and the nurses will send them in a letter to GP.
If they can't work with some kind of system that works for me, I've no problem with changing GPs, just not sure how to check first that the new GP will have a better system!
Let me be quite frank. GPs' aren't making the money the once were. Why? Government. I was premed majoring in both biochemistry and mathematics. The stress flared me up to the point I never recovered. I had never been diagnosed despite having blood in my diaper before I was 1 years old. I feel like God intervened. I recently read an article that had results as high as 90% of physicians not satisfied with their job.
So, the real reason... They want your money. Let's just be honest.
I just request it online and then go the chemist 2 days later. Every 3 months I make an appointment for the blood test, which coincides with my B12 injection that I was going for anyway.
What I never understand is it's the GI consultant who decided to put me on the stuff, so why is it necessary to go through the GP at all?
I don't think this is the reason as General Practice in the UK is publically funded, through our National Health Service, and the funding is allocated to GPs per registered patient each year, rather than per visit. No, I'm pretty sure that they are doing it because they think it's the best way to make sure they are monitoring blood results and prescribing the Aza safely, but I do think they could do this in a more efficient way - for both me and them!
Yes! This is what I want to do! So it *is* possible.
I think it's the GP because of the way the funding works for the medications - since it's a long-term medication. What I don't actually understand is why the Humira I've been on, and the Infliximab I'm now starting is prescribed directly from the hospital, but maybe it's because it requires closer monitoring.

I agree that there is a lot of good info that we completed in class here (that Wendy recorded). When I read this infominute, I see opportunities for perhaps a joint 7 minute with your realtor. I could see a realtor using this 7 minute as well (making a case for homeownership to build wealth). Perhaps a joint 7 minute might involve the realtor running some figures on home appreciation over time and you could model some amortization schedules over that same time to show the growth in equity over a relatively short period of time (maybe 10 years). Could be a good visual for both of you that members will remember.

The Disruption Painting
The Group around the Atlas
Thank you to Rev. John S Ross for the e-mail giving me the following information about the group of figures above:
"The group you have drawn attention to is particularly interesting, consisting as it does of the pioneers associated with the Church of Scotland's/Free Church's mission to the Jews.
The person looking to the right above the atlas is Dr Alexander Keith, father of George Skene Keith - whose photographs of the Holy Land illustrated later editions of his father's book 'Evidences of Prophecy', thus making it one of the earliest books to be illustrated by the use of photography.
The slender, bewhiskered, profile to the right is Dr John Duncan, the eccentric but brilliant first Professor of Oriental languages in New College, Edinburgh and erstwhile missionary to the Jews in Budapest, who also had a casual interest in the use of photography.
The child pointing to the atlas (open at the page of Palestine) is Adolph Saphir, son of the first convert from the Budapest mission.
At this point D. O. Hill permits one of his anachronisms - neither Duncan nor Saphir were in Edinburgh at the time of the Disruption, both being in Budapest. The large leftwards looking profile in the foreground belongs to Alex. Black, Professor of Hebrew and Old Testament in Aberdeen.
The figure to his right, holding a scroll of paper, is Andrew Bonar.
Keith, Black and Bonar, along with Robert M'Cheyne (deceased March 1843 - two months before the Disruption) were sent in 1840 by the Church of Scotland to survey Jewish communities in Europe and Palestine." [Rev. John S Ross]

'These essays are sharp-tongued snippets of the history of the last seven years, with reference to those that preceded them … Well done, Mr. Frank. May we please have some more?'
Liz Burton, Portable Soup
'The collected essays in Rendezvous show Frank's commentary to not only be insightful, but more importantly eminently readable. He has a distinctive, sardonic style, that somehow makes even the discussion of the calamities of recent times engaging and entertaining.'
'Frank's combination of insightful analysis, moral passion, and keen satirical wit make these essays both entertaining and an important commentary on the times.'
From the acclaimed author of Listen, Liberal and What's the Matter with Kansas? comes a scathing collection of his incisive commentary on our cruel times — perfect for this political moment.
What does a middle-class democracy look like when it comes apart? When, after forty years of economic triumph, America's winners persuade themselves that they owe nothing to the rest of the country?
With his sharp eye for detail, Thomas Frank takes us on a wide-ranging tour through present-day America, showing us a society in the late stages of disintegration, and describing the worlds of both the winners and the losers — the sprawling mansion districts as well as the lives of fast-food workers.
Rendezvous with Oblivion is a collection of interlocking essays examining how inequality has manifested itself in US cities, in its jobs, in the way its people travel, and, of course, in its politics — where, in 2016, millions of anxious, ordinary people rallied to the presidential campaign of a billionaire who meant them no good.
These accounts of folly and exploitation are brought together in a single volume unified by Frank's distinctive voice, sardonic wit, and anti-orthodox perspective. They capture a society where every status signifier is hollow, where the allure of mobility is just another con game, and where rebellion too often yields nothing.
For those who despair of the future of America and of reason itself, Rendezvous with Oblivion is a booster shot of energy, reality, and moral outrage.

The Active Directory Users and Computers console has a nice feature that allows you to copy a user account. This is especially helpful in situations where you want to create a "template" user account that contains mandatory information shared by all of your users. When you attempt to copy a user account, you'll notice that not all of the fields are included in the copy process. This is by design.
For instance if you want to include additional attributes in the copy process, you'll need to modify the searchFlags attribute. You'll need to use the ADSI Edit utility. In addition, you can only modify this setting for attributes that are members of the User Class. If you attempt to do this using the Active Directory Schema, the option to do so is unavailable, even if you log in as a member of the Schema Admins group.
Connect to the Schema naming context on the server that is the schema master.
Browse through the containers, right-click the attribute you want to modify, and then click Properties.
In the Schema attribute editor properties dialog box, select the "searchFlags" value in Select a property to view, and then edit the value as an integer.
If there is an existing value and you want to enable the option to copy an attribute, add 16. For instance, if there is a value of "5" present, add 16 so the new value is 21.

Clean up on aisle 5.
The divorce between Chris Rock and Malaak Compton-Rock is getting messier.
An investigation opened up this week revealing that Rock and his wife adopted a now seven year old child from South Africa, yet he says that was all the doing of his soon to be ex-wife.
According to reports, Ntombi, the child in question, was adopted by the Rocks shortly before her first birthday, and has lived with them ever since.
12 THINGS YOU DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT CHRIS ROCK
However, divorce documents reveal that the comedian only claimed two daughters, his biological offspring with Malaak, with regards to child support.
No surprise, she is calling him out for foul play.
In a statement to People by her lawyer Davin Aronson, Compton-Rock says the small child, "has been raised by the parties as a member of the family and has been solely supported by the parties. She also stated that she continues to be the girl's primary caregiver."
The statement goes on to adress the alleged illegal adoption of Ntombi stating, "Although Chris Rock is a celebrity, Malaak and the children are not. Protecting the privacy of her family remains of utmost importance to Malaak. She is saddened by recent tabloid media reports which are full of erroneous speculation and inaccuracies that are hurtful to three innocent young girls. While the adoption by Malaak is not yet finalized, it is actively in process under the rigorous guidelines and safeguards of international adoption policy. The child is in the country lawfully with the written consent of her birth parents, and while here, has been cherished and adored by the entire Rock family."

Australia women join men at the top of inaugural rugby league rankings
By Bill Howell
Australia head the first ever women's world rankings following their 2017 Rugby League World Cup victory.
Nine nations make up the inaugural Women's rankings with Australia head coach Brad Donald delighted to see his side on top.
"Not only is this a great result for our team, who have worked extraordinarily hard to win the World Cup, the formalisation of a rankings process is also great recognition for women's sport in general," he said.
"The Jillaroos are an incredibly talented and committed group of players and this has added significantly to their wonderful achievements through the tournament."
Unsurprisingly, Australia, are at the head of both tables having also secured the men's World Cup.
New Zealand, beaten in the World Cup final, England, Canada and the Cook Islands make up the women's top five.
In the men's rankings, New Zealand pip beaten World Cup finalists England into second, ahead of Tonga, Fiji and Samoa, but all are a long way off Australia.
"One of our goals since 2016 has been to restore the Kangaroos to the position of number one in the world," said head coach Mal Meninga.
"We achieved that following the Four Nations Final last year and it has been enormously satisfying to stay there.
"We believe a strong international programme is essential and see our success, and the manner in which we fought for it, as a catalyst in continuing this push to prioritise Test match rugby league.
"The players have been central to this achievement and I know they are very proud and humble to maintain the status quo."

In the men's rankings, Lebanon are the main movers, up nine places from eighteenth into the top ten, whilst Tonga go from eleventh to fourth.
Papua New Guinea (PNG) rise six places to tenth and there is a welcome move for Chile, who won the first South American Championship, as they go up five places from 37th to 32nd in a year when more internationals have been played than ever before.
Tongan head coach Kristian Woolf said: "The Mate Ma'a's move is just reward for a very strong year including a great World Cup campaign.
"It is something we want to continue, with the opportunity to be involved in more International games in the future and the ability to compete against the top three nations."
David Collier OBE, chief executive of the Rugby League International Federation, said: "On behalf of the RLIF board I would like to congratulate Australia on retaining their position and the other major movers, in particular Lebanon, Fiji, PNG and Tonga who all lit up the World Cup.
"The rankings are a statistically-weighted reflection of results over the past five years, with greater emphasis on recent displays.
"Scotland and Samoa have retained a top six place due to their recent performances against the tier one nations, and Ireland are improving on the field yet drop out of the top ten because of the ranking of the opposition they faced.
"What we have seen is that the success of the World Cup has reinvigorated the international game, even more fixtures are being arranged across the tiers and that will have a reflection in future rankings as past results gradually degrade."
The Test series scheduled for next autumn between England and New Zealand will, most likely, determine which nation will end 2018 as the second ranked side.

The Audit Committee, Nexus Committee, Uniformity Committee and Litigation Committee will be meeting in San Diego, California.
On November 7, the Commission filed an amicus brief in the United States Supreme Court, supporting Colorado's cross-petition in DMA v. Brohl. The Direct Marketing Association (DMA) is appealing the Tenth Circuit's decision that Colorado's sales and use tax notice and reporting statute did not discriminate against interstate commerce. The Commission brief supports Colorado's position that, if the court grants review based on DMA's discrimination claim, it should also take the opportunity to reconsider Quill v. North Dakota. This case is unusually well-suited for this purpose because Quill has already been invoked and analyzed extensively in the lower court proceedings; the current situation demonstrates the convoluted efforts necessary to collect use tax; and the case is unlikely to give rise to retroactive tax liability.
The Commission also emphasized the ways in which the Quill physical presence standard has proven unworkable as a "bright-line" rule, particularly given the nature of modern commerce.
Elliott Dubin and former policy research intern Trevor Ahouse of the MTC are featured in the Journal of Multistate Taxation and Incentives. Trevor Ahouse is a student at Bloomsburg University. The report examines longer-term trends in state and local government fiscal conditions and highlights the changes in spending and revenues over a 50-plus year period.
On August 25th, U.S. Rep. Bob Goodlatte released a draft of federal legislation, the Online Sales Simplification Act of 2016, that would require remote sellers, as defined, to collect and report sales tax to a single state where the seller's affiliated group has its greatest number of employees (the so called origin state), using that state's tax base, but using the destination state's rate. A copy of the draft legislation is available by clicking here .
DMA v. Brohl—Is It Time to Stop Fighting the Last War?
Helen Hecht and Lila Disque of the MTC propose that rather than continuing the battle to persuade Congress or the Supreme Court to remove restraints on the states' existing tax collection mechanism, states might consider an alternative mechanism that makes use of 21st century technology.
Helen Hecht and Lila Disque of the MTC consider Justice Kennedy's concurrence in the Direct Marketing Association case inviting states to bring a challenge to Quill, and the general problems in mounting such a test case.
In her regular column, KPMG Corner, for the May 2016 edition of the Journal of Multistate Taxation and Incentives (Thomson Reuters/Tax & Accounting), Shirley Sicilian, managing director in the State and Local Tax group of the Washington National Tax practice of KPMG LLP, interviews Greg Matson to discuss his vision for the Commission and his perspective on current multi-state tax issues, as well as a bit of personal reflection.

Muslim Conservatives Not On Board With Albania Giving Marriage to Those Homos
By Queerty Staff July 31, 2009 at 5:07pm · 20 comments
OBVIOUSLY … Religious types aren't so thrilled that Albania is considering legalizing same-sex marriage. Shkelqim Muca, head of Albania's Muslim community: "We are absolutely against it as a community. This is a sham not a law." To which we respond: Booooooring. Of course you're going to say that! Can't you folks at least come up with some original rhetoric? At least base your argument in scripture, which, while ridiculous, at least provides us with fairy tale copy to pounce on. Step it up!
albania Marriage
Subscribe to Queerty for a daily dose of #albania #marriage stories and more
While this is not surprising given the murderous homophobia in the Qur'an, I hate when the media goes to these 'community head'.
Does this jerk really represent Albanian Mulsims? I assume Muslims there range from name-only to fire-brand fundamentalist. Besides Islam is a very decentralised religion, so this guy is either self-anointed or chosen by some oligarchy of old men.

This is silly to even note: Albanias Moslem population is only about %9 . I doubt that they will have much aeffect on anything.
But hey, get the Moslems. This gets kind of (almost)racist when we've got worse Christian extremists population signif portion of %94..
July 31, 2009 at 10:07pm
@M Shane: It is not racist to call out Muslims on their shit. I am so sick of that mindset. They deserve to be called out just as much as Evangelicals. Who the hell brainwashed you that one group is more off limits than the other 'cause the majority of their skin is darker? Fuck that.
An Other Greek
Many Albanians are fair and blond.
One of the major legacies of nearly five centuries of Ottoman rule was that the majority of Albanians, according to Ottoman data, had converted to Islam. Therefore, the nation emerged as nominally Muslim-majority after Albania's independence in November 1912.
Communist rule promoted atheism.

"kind of racist"? boy please!!
No one is being racist, only calling on muslims for their hate-filled religion.Not that christians are any better.People die everyday in the name of this religion i'm so done with it.
Not only are they homophobic, the oppress women as well.i have no respect whatsoever for their kind.
Dear douches,
M Shane wasn't saying it's racist to call out Muslims on their violent made-up beliefs. He was saying it's racist to call out Muslims to the exclusion of others. You don't see people calling Christian's violent made-up beliefs "fairy tales" very often, but they're cut from the very same fabricated cloth. And from the sound of it, you're all in agreement. So let's all just be equal opportunity, and call all religions fairy tales every chance we get.
@Chance:
Chance, why do you call those posters "douche"? If you read this site frequently you'd see that there's a ton of criticism of Christian-based hate/violence and a lot of rhetoric about Christian-based "fairy tales." Are you suggesting that every time someone posts a criticism of one group/religion they must include a caveat deriding the evils of every other possible group/religion? These are blog-posts, not dissertations.

reluctantcommenter
@Andrew:
"You don't see people calling Christian's violent made-up beliefs "fairy tales" very often,…"
Yes I do. Very often. And I love it. In this case, his accusations of racism, are absurd (especially considering "Muslim" is not a racial classification).
No. 6 · Chance; Thanks you are right. It doesn't require a disertation to see that the intention behind much of the different criticisms of religious groups is to pull on different sets of sentiments.
I.E in Albania thereare as many Catholics and Orthodox Christians(or slightly more in fact who would as easily find it apaling that gays are getting married. YET; this report is not about all of the religious freaks in Albania, but just about the Moslems, as if they had a reservation on Bigotry or Hate and the others didn't.
The context counts and it's not complicated.
There has been a distorted and perversely ignorant tendancy in the U.S. to push an all around hatred of tanyone froma Moslem Counry and to just assume that they are somehow worse that the demented Christian crusaders here.
Religions are based on faith-blind adherance- -not on anything real-you can have faith in anything if you are crazy enough.and buy into the hate which is preached.
We have no less of a problem than the moslem countries. Indseed, My experience of most Moslem peoples ids that before the U.s. started fucking with them for oil they lived side by side with Jews , Christian Kurds etc apart from extremists. Christians often seem to be all gooing full steam with their hatred.

@Chance: I get what you're saying, although on this site I would say that there is a fairly strong anti-christian sentiment (among other things). But in the general world and media, people do indeed overlook a person's religion when that religion is Christianity.
Just a side note, Muslim may not be a race, but we can't deny that most people hear "Muslim" and think "Arab."
I don't feel the need to criticize christianity every time I criticize islam, nor vice versa. WHat would motivate that? Charges of bias are absurd, and rooted in brown skin. The fact is that because of the enlightenment and secular inroads in explaining the world around us through, say, science, and also the values that are required for that to occur (secular values Re: galileo and the church's shame), christianity has been beaten back from enabling women who are midwives to be burned alive at the stake in western society. Not so in muslim nations, where women are routinely buried up to their necks and stone to death. Have you ever seen one of those occur? I think it's your obligation as someone defending islam by those who criticize it by calling those who criticize racits or bigots to watch that happen–to see for yourself what Islam causes.
epluribusunumjk
@M Shane: All of your assertions seem like pretty gross over-generalizations. As someone stated earlier, just because the Muslim faith was attacked in this particular article, the christian faith is just as deplorable and, unsurprisingly, is attacked elsewhere on this site pretty comprehensively.
I don't give a rats ass about christian fundies or islamic fundies. To me, they are of the same ilk, and should be condemned accordingly regardless of whether the individuals comprising these religions in a particular country are white, black, brown or any other hue.
I don't care about moslem fundies in Iran for instance, and i think they should just go and fist themselves with their korans. Likewise, I feel the same way about the West. Baptist Church members and their loony beliefs. I don't care about either of their "cultures" or their reasons for excluding, condemning and at least in the case of Iran, executing homosexuals. Fuck them, and their religious culture/heritage.
@Elisabeth:
you should see some of the public opinion polling in muslim nations. Many extremely bigoted, backward and primitive values are mainstream. Like death for a woman who opposes her father's arranged marriage.
@M Shane: And, to top it off, I fail to understand what you are suggesting.
A few weeks ago, the Chicago Tribune wrote an article about the HIV/AIDS rate in predominately black homosexual communities in one of the country's largest metropolitan areas. Because these individuals are not white (the article mentioned that HIV/AIDS was at 11% and 12% for white and latino homoseuxuals in the region) but instead focused on a nearly 30% infection rate in the black community – is this racist too? Where are we supposed to draw the line? If we completely try to keep everything "contextualized," as you suggest, newspapers will turn into tomes and we will all be inundated by way more information than is necessary. To be fair, according to your standards, the article should have mentioned how whites and latinos are affected more by other STDs, right, so that everything could be kept "in context" and balanced.
To me, that not only sounds ridiculous from an ideological standpoint (ya know, free speech and all), but also from a pragmatic standpoint as well.
"M Shane wasn't saying it's racist to call out Muslims on their violent made-up beliefs. He was saying it's racist to call out Muslims to the exclusion of others."
That is a totally disingenuous position. Religion is not a race or ethnicity. It is an ideology. More pointedly the Muslims in Albania are European, so you would have a pretty steep task to prove that anyone dislikes them because of their Albanian ancestry rather than their religious beliefs. It may appear single-minded to focus on Islam but your claim about not seeing Christianity criticised here is simply wrong.
The use of the label 'racism' is a cheap political tactic used during the Bush-era where some leftists felt the dire need to shield Muslims from any and all criticism. No one is under any obligation to talk about Christianity, etc. when engaged in criticism of other religions. Islam is the focus of this news story and that is what people respond to.
@M Shane:
"to just assume that they [Muslims] are somehow worse that the demented Christian crusaders here."
Since the only countries in the world which still maintain a death penalty and/or corporeal punishment (e.g. lashings) for homosexuality are in the Muslim world (e.g. Iran, Nigeria, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Malaysia), that is hardly an 'assumption' to deem them "worse".
Yes, there are awful places in the Christian world like Jamaica or Latvia, but even those countries aren't brazen enough to physically attack LGBT as a matter of law/state policy. Only Muslim nations do that in the modern world.

Fifteen new victims of religion and hate in Tel Aviv. Three new deaths.
http://www.queerty.com/shock-3-israeli-gay-teens-gunned-down-at-youth-club-in-tel-aviv-20090801/
All three abrahamic religions – the christers, islamists and judaists are equally guilty of promoting hatred and violence against GLBT folks.
It makes no difference whether its state sponsored or state tolerated, as it clearly is in the US.
Probably the worst case of state sponsored terrorism against GLBT communities is in Iraq, where it's directly and solely caused by the US invasion and occupation. Next on the list would have to be Iran where the regime never ceases to point out that Iran is menaced by US oil pirates to 'justify' the oppressive regime of the ayatollahs who relentlessly murder GLBT folks, student, workers, women and trade unionists.
Of course islam is not a race – race is a thoroughly discredited concept. However those who claim that muslim cultures are worse that christer or judaist cultures are racist or doing the dirty work of excusing US genocide in Iraq, And some like tankie are supporters of the oil piracy and zionist ethnic cleaning and apartheid. It's good that tankie, who wants to use nukes on muslims, is just a discredited blog commenter with no following.

Oh please nobody likes gays on albanian lands regardless of their faith, there are very few practecing muslims on albanian lands, cus the majority belive albania is our religion, and they dont like gays either. Ive spoken to many albanians, especially the non-religious, they dont like gays. Only a few are not against it. so stop making everything accociated with islam.
whereever you go in the balkans, gays are not welcome, especially in the orthodox countries like serbia, but i dont se anyone commenting that?

Melody, our Humane Society star, is a Maltese/Yorkie mix born on 6/20/18. She was left with her sister in a box, outside of our intake door while we were closed. We weren't sure how long the puppies were actually there, but when a Humane Society employee came in that door, he heard a scratching noise. He noticed a box, partially taped shut, sitting beside the door. The puppies inside were scratching the sides of the box. He rushed them inside since it was over 90 degrees outside. Other than being hot, they were healthy. We gave them food and water and placed them into foster homes. We are happy to tell you that Melody is currently happy in her new home with a wonderful family who fell in love with her at first sight.
After her adventures to NYC and Graceland, she has found herself settled nicely in her new home with a wonderful family who fell in love with her at first sight.

Where do I find an overview of my contact requests?
You will find the menu item "Contact requests" on your "Home" page in the member area. Here all current contact requests, whether sent or received, are displayed. This way you always have an overview of who has gotten in contact with whom and which contact requests are still pending.
Can I send 2 contact requests to the same person?
No. Our communication system principally allows only a one-time contact request. Only a single contact request can be sent to each potential contact. If this is refused, further contact is no longer possible. This way we actively protect you and other members from harassment.
Do I have to answer all contact requests?
We kindly request that you answer all the contact requests you receive. If you don't want to be in contact with a certain member then simply refuse the contact request. That way your counterpart immediately knows where he/she stands and doesn't have to wait in vain for an answer from you. Please remember that you would also like to be treated in a fair and respectful manner by other members.
Why am I not receiving any contact requests?
Try to make your profile as personal as possible by completing the interview and adding photos. This way you make yourself distinctly more interesting for other members and you increase your chances of being contacted. In general, however, it is better to become active yourself rather than waiting for others to take the first step.
Why aren't my contact requests being answered?
Why do some profiles disappear from my contacts?


To get from one point to another is not so easy. After all, roads are not always smooth. There are several routes in the world, one glance at which is enough to confuse even the experienced driver. Not everyone will dare to make their way along such an extreme road, preferring a detour.
It turns out that extreme routes are not just for Russia. We will tell below about the most unusual roads in the world. Although most of them can not be driven and not succeeded, they are happy to use computer simulation manufacturers, offering extreme or unusual driving.
This road in the Bolivian region of Yungas is better known as the "Road of Death". The route passes in the Andes, descending from a height of 3600 meters to 330 meters above sea level. The length of the most dangerous section here is 70 kilometers, it passes between the cities of La Paz and Coroico. On this piece of the route, the vehicle moves on a narrow road three meters wide. In doing so, it is still fairly washed up by waterfalls and rains. As a result, cars pass only in centimeters from the abyss. Today, in the city of Koroiko, the authorities laid a new, safer road. The mortal section of the route remained in use only for extreme tourists.
This Italian road lies in the eastern Alps between the cities of Sulden and Bormio. Not far from here is the border with Switzerland. The highest point of the route, the pass, is located at an altitude of 2757 meters. Many people consider the road to be the most winding in Europe. After all, to overcome the whole route it will be necessary to overcome 48 zigzag turns. In some places, these studs are also quite narrow, not giving the opportunity to miss the cars.
In the Middle Kingdom there is a tunnel, called "A Road Not Forgiving Mistakes". The road was laid manually by the people of Henan province right in the cliff about 40 years ago. To create a tunnel length of 1200 meters took several years. The height of the road in the rock was 5 meters, and the width – only 4. The outer wall of the tunnel is a huge window, the size of which allows you to drive there. So zazevavshiysya driver has every chance at high speed to fly off the road right into the abyss.
In Norwegian, the name of this road is translated as "trolley ladder". The way lies up the mountain slope to a height of 858 meters. It is noteworthy, but on this road it is forbidden to drive cars longer than 12.4 meters. After all, the width of the route in some areas is only 3.3 meters. In winter, the road closes for everyone. The track has 11 pivots-turns. Overcoming them, the driver as a reward will get a beautiful view from the top of the mountain to the Stigfossen Falls and the local fjords.
The Indian Highway runs through the Himalayas, connecting the cities of Manali and Leh. The road was made specially to allow tanks and other military equipment to move through it. It is noteworthy that the highway passes right through several high mountain passes. The highest of them, Taglang La, is located at 5325 meters above sea level. The total length of the road is 479 kilometers. At the same time, the difficulty in moving along it is not only a complex landscape, but also frequent landslides and snowfalls. Authorities allow to drive on Leh-Manali Highway exclusively in the summer.
This road lies in the southern part of France, runs through the Alps. The highest point is at an altitude of 1607 meters. Although the length of the route is only 30 kilometers, it accommodated 34 complex turns in the form of a hairpin. It is believed that the Col de Turini is one of the best tracks for racing drivers, since there are practically no direct sections on it. That's why the road at one time became part of the famous Monte Carlo rally. A similar route exists in Ukraine. So, the road from the top of the Ai-Petri mountain to Yalta also abounds with sharp turns.On this extreme track also runs its own rally race.
The road lies along the picturesque Japanese national park Nikko. The track has 48 sharp turns, and the number is not chosen randomly. After all, 48 hieroglyphs were in the ancient Japanese alphabet. And the very name of the road is directly connected with the very first character in the alphabet – "i-ro-ha". Curiously, Iroha-zaka winding, only 800 meters long, is used exclusively for descent. To climb the mountain it will be necessary to drive along another road, which, however, has the same number of turns.
This road is considered one of the most picturesque in general in the world. The route runs along the coast of the Hawaiian island of Maui. On the 60-kilometer road there are 600 turns and as many as 54 bridges. Driving along this picturesque road you can see both the jungle and excellent Hawaiian beaches with red or black sand. The road passes by several waterfalls, passing through it you can see even the old extinct volcano Haleakala. Halsema Highway, Philippines.
The second name of this route in the Philippines is Baguio-Bontoc Road. It runs through the Cordillera Valley on the island of Luzon. The difficulty in overcoming the road is that virtually all of the 250-kilometer highway is flooded with a thick layer of mud. The reason for this is frequent rains and constant landslides. To overcome the entire distance, local motorists spend at least 10 hours. The speed here is not limited to signs or policemen at corners, but slippery cover and steep cliffs. There are no bumpers on the road.
In the translation, the name of the road sounds like the "Atlantic Road". It passes along the western coast of Norway, bordering the Arctic Ocean. This track is the most unusual on this list. Although the length of the road is only 9 kilometers, it has 8 bridges that connect 8 islands. The Atlantic road was built in 1989, with the use of the newest technologies, which allow to resist frequent tornadoes here. That's why the bridges look a little unusual, reminiscent of some futuristic attraction.
In Russia there is a motorway, which is called only "highway from hell". The track M56 "Lena" has a length of 1235 kilometers. It lies between the cities of Yakutsk and Nemer, running along the Lena River. Most of the route does not have asphalt pavement at all. That is why heavy rains in spring and autumn significantly blur the road. As a result, dirt almost does not allow the transport to move. The resulting traffic jams are tens of kilometers apart.
The only city road in our list is located in San Francisco. It is officially recognized as the most twisty street in the world, being entered in the Guinness Book of Records. The world famous Lombard Street received thanks to the 400 meter section in the area of the Russian Hill. There are as many as 8 sharp turns, and the slope is 27%. Moving on a one-way Lombard Street can be done with a speed of no more than 8 km / h.

The night in 2011 when Jayna Murray was murdered in a Bethesda (Md.) Lululemon store, her screams were audible to Apple store employees next door. Now a new book about her murder and the subsequent trial of her killer explains why neither Bethesda Row store manager Jana Svrzo nor two security guards dialed 9-1-1 to report the noises—they believed it was just "drama" or some other easy explanation. Sadly, it was not. The next morning an arriving Lululemon employee opened the store and discovered Murray's very bloody body. The 30 year-old had been slashed over 320 times with a box cutter and other sharp objects, struck on the head with a hammer, and strangled. A state's attorney later said Murray was alive during most of the prolonged attack. Arriving police found Murray's co-worker Brittany Norwood alive, bound up and bloody in a back room. She claimed that two men had entered the store and viciously attacked the two women. Despite those statements, the police investigation soon focused on Norwood, and she was arrested, charged and convicted of Murray's murder. In the new book "The Yoga Store Murder," Washington Post reporter Dan Morse details Murray's life and death, and the murder trial. An excerpt of the new book was just published in the Post, focusing specifically on the Apple store employees as they heard the attack occurring next door. At trial, Norwood admitted killing Murray, but she claimed it was not premeditated. The jury disagreed, and convicted her of first-degree murder. The judge sentenced her to serve life without parole.

From the 15th to the 16th century, Portugal was one of the most powerful empires in the world, owning half of the New World, and millions of other lands across the world. In 1579, then King Sebastian died in battle with no direct heir, sending the empire into a succession crisis. Spain took advantage of Portugal's plight and invaded the region, placing it under their monarchy in 1580 and ending in 1640, when Portugal was finally declared independent.
