Our vision is for a world in which all children, youth, and vulnerable adults are protected and feel safe.
Unfortunately, that's not the world we live in, which is why Safe Gatherings has created a comprehensive system that screens and educates staff and volunteers – to help prevent abuse and make the world a safer place for those among us who are most vulnerable.
Safe Gatherings is a program that your organization can implement right now.
Amy is the leader of a camping organization that serves 500 youth each summer.
Amy wants to make sure all of her staff and volunteers are trained and vetted, starting with herself. So Amy goes to safegatherings.com and clicks on "Get Started."
Amy completes a quick and easy online application. Once it's submitted, Safe Gatherings kicks into high gear.
First, Amy has access to the Safe Gatherings online abuse prevention and boundary awareness training. It's about one and one-half hours in length and covers best practices, how to recognize signs of abuse, and how to handle reporting.
At the same time, Amy's electronic reference checks are emailed to the two references she specified in her application.
Simultaneously, Amy's background checks are being processed.
Amy completes her training, her background checks come back clean, her references are reviewed, and Amy is Safe Gatherings approved!
Next, Amy tells all of her staff to go to safegatherings.com and start their approval process! As the administrator for her camp, Amy can track who has and has not been approved.
This gives Amy peace of mind, and she also lets all of her campers' parents know that her staff has been Safe Gatherings approved—giving them peace of mind as well.
Safe Gatherings is easy, online, and helps protect your organization, your staff and volunteers, and the people you serve.

Following an ankle injury while playing basketball, our friend Alsamdan returns to complete the season. Meanwhile, her family is planning a ski vacation. Preparations have begun: plane tickets, ski tune-ups, new helmets and warmer mittens and gloves than last year.
With summer soon approaching all the little bugs and critters are just around the corner. Do you know what to do if you or your family member gets a bite while out camping, mowing the lawn or even setting out on your deck or patio? Bites from insects such as bees, fleas, mosquitoes, wasps, hornets or chiggers can be dangerous if you are allergic to the bite or sting.


Looking for a healthy, Whole 30 meal? This Zucchini Noodle Breakfast Bowl features zucchini noodles covered in an avocado cream sauce and topped with roasted sweet potatoes and a fried egg. Grain free, dairy free, sugar free, and absolutely delicious!
I'm so, so excited to share this zucchini noodle breakfast bowl recipe with you! It's quick, easy and whole30 compliant, meaning it's gluten free, dairy free and sugar free but still SO delicious I promise. Sweet potatoes are one of my favorite foods, and I love pairing them with avocado and eggs. Certainly plain avocados are delicious, but this garlic avocado cream sauce is even better!
When I first bought my spiralizer, I remember thinking that I wasn't quite sure what to make. Part of me felt like the possibilities were endless, while the other part of me felt limited. Luckily I got over that pretty quickly and decided to start with the easiest vegetable: zucchini. Here's the spiralizer I own, in case you're in the market!
As I mentioned, this breakfast bowl is perfect for is/when you're doing a round of whole30. I've only done one full whole30 in my life, but I felt amazing afterward. Honestly, I think it was mostly the sugar detox part that had me feeling lighter, but it wasn't as hard as I thought it was going to be once I thought up recipes like this one.
The base of the recipe is pretty simple, but the key is the garlic avocado sauce. Originally I to use my favorite kale pesto, but ultimately decided against it and I'm glad I did.
For this recipe, you can either cook the zucchini noodles or leave them uncooked. For example, it's perfectly fine to run the zucchini through the spiralizer, cover them in sauce and just eat them that way. However, if you want them to be warmed up, simply sauté them in a skillet with oil for a few minutes–be careful not to overcook them or else they'll be soggy.
Note: as far as the garlic goes, I recommend starting with 1 garlic clove then taste the sauce and see if you think it needs a second garlic clove or not.
Essentially you're going to run the zucchini through your spiralizer, then either heat it up OR place it directly into a bowl. Then, you'll make the garlic avocado sauce, pour it over the zucchini noodles and use kitchen tongs to combine the two. Then, cook the sweet potatoes in one skillet and the eggs in another and that's pretty much it!
I know this recipe is called a zucchini noodle breakfast bowl, however, it can clearly be eaten for any meal of the day. Eat up!
This Zucchini Noodle Breakfast Bowl will be your new favorite Whole30 breakfast! Grain free, dairy free and made with healthy yet delicious ingredients–it's a good one.
Remove skin and chop sweet potatoes into bite size pieces; heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a skillet on medium-high heat and cook potatoes, stirring occasionally.
Chop ends off of zucchini and send them through the spiralizer; once potatoes are cooked, set them aside then add the zucchini noodles to the skillet and cook until they're warmed, 2-3 minutes. You don't want to cook them too long or else they'll get mushy, so keep an eye on them.
To make the avocado cream, place avocado, garlic, 2 tbsp olive oil, and water into a blender or food processor and pulse. You may need to add a bit more olive oil to get everything going.
Pour avocado cream overtop zucchini noodles and stir; place cooked potatoes on top of zucchini noodles.
Lastly, cook two eggs (I used to same skillet the sweet potatoes were cooked in) until done and place them on top.
Garnish with onion, salt and pepper and enjoy!
*Start with just one garlic clove and then go from there. I ended up using two cloves and thought it was a bit too garlicky, but my friend loved it that way. It's your personal preference!
Is it possible to prep this meal? Ive never eaten Zucchini or anything like that so I am not sure how everything holds up. thanks.
Hi! You can make the zucchini noodles ahead of time, but I wouldn't add the sauce until you're ready to actually eat them.
Thanks so much for the spiralizer recommendation. I just ordered one from WalMart and can't wait to use it. I'm Diabetic so I've been "doing" lactose-free gluten-free meals for a few weeks now. I'm not ready for the full Whole30 treatment yet, but with "fun food" to look forward to I'm confident it won't take me long to "get with the program".
Not a fan of the zucchini, but the eggs and sweet potato..oh, and the avocado sauce sound amazing!
Suggestions for a zuch substitute?
You could try using spiralized butternut squash?! You can spiralize it yourself, though I might just spend the few extra bucks and buy pre-spiralized butternut squash noodles because spiralizing a butternut squash can be a bit of a pain. Let me know if you try it!
Hi! You can add the zucchini noodles in last minute, but if you cook zucchini noodles for more than a few minutes they tend to get a bit soggy, so just be careful not to overcook them.
If you salt the zucchini and let it sit for 20 minutes or so, then rinse off the salt, it helps with the sogginess thing.
By any chance, is it possible to post recipes with nutritional information? I will live to incorporate these recipes into my diet!!!
If you punch all of the ingredients into myfitnesspal.com it comes out to about 538 calories total. That's with one egg, one sweet potato, a quarter of an avocado, 2 tbsp of EVOO, and one zucchini. I'm leaving out the onion and garlic as they're negligible calorie wise. If you're not going to the gym that day, I'd recommend a light lunch if you're having this for breakfast.
Does anyone know if this keeps very well in the fridge or freezer for meal-prep? Busy busy busy, always looking for great meal-prep food!
I just started the Whole 30 plan yesterday. I'm loving everything except the fact I feel like eggs will be at every breakfast. I don't eat beef or sausage so I feel very limited, any suggestions? I usually have oatmeal or yogurt so I'm at a loss.
Avocado is a great source of protein and quite versatile. There are also compliant bacon and sausage available but they can be a bit expensive.
I am on day 27 of my second Whole 30. I feel great! I'm sleeping better, I have more energy, my skin and hair feel smooth and hydrated. The first two weeks or so aren't so much fun, but then it gets much easier and you really start seeing the benefits. I would recommend it!
This is my kind of bowl!!! So many delicious things in one meal 🙂 Sweet potato and eggs with something green of course are one of my go-to meals. AND i just got a spiralizer for Christmas so cant wait to try this!!
Margaret @ Simple Fit Foodie recently posted…Helloooo 2016!
Hello, I'm curious, do you cook the zucchini noodles?
I've been looking for a good spiralizer…any suggestions. I don't like the hand-held ones.
Jen @ Chase the Red Grape recently posted…Week in Review!
I still don't have a spiralizer, so I have yet to get on the zoodle bandwagon – but Erin, that avocado sauce sounds amazing! That and the sweet potatoes would make me one happy, finger-licking, camper!
Once you get on the spiralizer train you won't be able to get off!
I love zucchini noodles! I love zucchini in general, but it's just more fun when it's swirly. Now you're making me really wish I'd had a savory breakfast today instead of a smoothie!

How to Watch Halo TV Series
These guidelines will help you in the best way to watch the "Halo" TV series.
Updated Feb 1, 2023, 5:58 PM UTC
(Source: Paramount Plus/Paramount Streaming)
After more than nine years in development, the Halo TV series is almost ready, and with its high production value and a high-profile cast of excellent performers, the series is likely to impress both longstanding Halo fans and rookies to the franchise. But How to watch Halo TV series? and when is the show going to air?
Don't worry, we're here to help. We'll go over everything you need to know about the Halo TV series release date, including what to expect from the program, when each episode will premiere in your time zone, and which services you'll be able to watch it on once it's live.
Since the release of Halo: Combat Evolved in 2001, the Halo TV series has been the official TV adaptation of Microsoft and 343 Industries' renowned Halo franchise, which has inspired multiple video games, novels, and short films. The show was once announced as a SHOWTIME original in 2013 and was set to premiere in 2015, but it was repeatedly postponed as the series' directors and producers changed, and it was eventually shifted to Paramount Plus.
The Halo TV series features Spartan supersoldier Master Chief (played by Pablo Schreiber) and his companions (played by Kate Kennedy, Natasha Culzac, and Bentley Kalu) as they, along with the rest of the United Nations Space Command (UNSC), attempt to stop an alien alliance known as the Covenant from wiping out humanity. Miranda Keyes (played by Olive Gray) and Spartan Soren-066 (played by Bokeem Woodbine) are two additional major characters, and the show will also feature Makee (played by Charlie Murphy), a human woman who was raised by the Covenant and works with them.
Interestingly, the Halo TV series takes place in a "Silver Timeline," a different version of the Halo universe that is very similar to, but not identical to, the canon of the Halo games and novels, as defined by 343 Industries. This Silver Timeline has allowed the showrunners to build the tale without having to worry about conforming to the events of earlier Halo media, as well as making the TV series more approachable for new to the Halo franchise.
Way to watch Halo TV series
The first episode of the Halo TV series is set to premiere on Paramount Plus on March 24, 2022, at 12 a.m. PT / 3 a.m. ET. That means that Paramount Plus subscribers in the United States, Latin America, Canada, the Nordic countries, and Australia will be able to see the first episode of the Halo TV series right immediately once the show goes on air.

We have good news straight from Realtor.com–the housing market is better than ever, with homes in May moving the fastest of any month since the housing recovery began, even with steeper asking prices!
Per preliminary May data released by realtor.com, the median age of May realtor.com properties was 65 days, which was the same median age as a year ago and three days faster than last month. The median home was listed at $250,000, which is 9 percent higher than one year ago and 2 percent higher than April. Also increasing on a monthly basis? For-sale housing inventory (though the number is still lower than it was one year ago). More than 550,000 new listings have been added to the market so far this month!
"Based on our early read of demand and supply data in May, this spring's real estate market is coming in strong, just as we expected," says Jonathan Smoke, chief economist of realtor.com. "Pent-up demand and low mortgage rates are driving consumers into the market with urgency. However, the recurring issue of limited supply is leading to record-high prices.

Birdseed, cowbirds, and disease: The unintended consequences of bird feeding
By Shane Hanlon, Department of Biological Sciences, University of Memphis
Birding is the baseball of nature appreciation; it's an American pastime. Usually when you ask birders, "Do you feed birds?" many will say yes. Pressed further, if you ask them why, the usual responses are, "They're pretty," "It's calming," or "It helps the birds." In 2011 alone, over 53 million Americans fed birds and other wildlife, racking up a $3.8 million dollar bill in the process. However, the idea that bird feeding "helps" birds may not be true. The surprising fact is that no one really knows the effects of feeding on the health of birds. This question spurred an unlikely collaboration between the Wild Bird Industry and a research group from Millikin University.
Example of bird feeders used in the study. Photo by Dr. Travis Wilcoxen.
The Wild Bird Feeding Industry is a group "promoting responsible feeding…and enhancing the experience of the consumer." The organization includes members from birdseed packagers and processors, bird feeder manufacturers, and wild bird specialty stores. In accordance with the goal of responsible feeding, they approached Dr. Travis Wilcoxen and Dr. David Horn, both assistant professors of biology at Millikin University. Dr. Wilcoxen's lab studies vertebrate ecophysiology, with a specific focus on avian endocrinology. While the topic of responsible feeding was a new direction for the lab, Dr. Wilcoxen had thought about this question before as a graduate student at the University of Memphis. Every spring, Dr. Wilcoxen would move to Florida to conduct research on the Florida Scrub Jay, a threatened species that is endemic to the state. Part of his research involved the implementation of automated feeders to supplement the birds' diets. The diets were fixed and only behavior was observed, but he always wanted to determine the physiological effects of supplemental feeding on the jays. While he never got that chance as a graduate student, the new opportunity proposed by the Wild Bird Feeding Industry seemed like a match made by fate.
It should be noted that Millikin University is a solely undergraduate institution. It is impossible to talk to Dr. Wilcoxen about his research without him touting the accomplishments of his "undergraduate army." So, in order to get this project off the ground, he set this army to work. Bird feeders were installed at nine forested sites with little to no bird feeding history in four counties in central Illinois. The sites were randomly assigned to either a feeder or no-feeder control site, with a maximum distance between sites of forty-two miles and a minimum of three. Because the team was concerned about how feeders affect community composition, population density, and subsequent measures of health, they conducted point counts, monitored birds at the feedings, and trapped as many birds as possible using stationary nets. The project was so demanding that Drs. Wilcoxen and Horn employed a full-time field technician to oversee much of the field work, in addition to eleven undergraduate students.
To measure the health of the birds, birds were caught and taken to the lab for testing. The team assessed twelve species for external differences in body and feather condition, fat content and visible disease. Blood samples were also collected and tested for reproductive hormones, stress physiology, immune function, and various additional indicators. They hypothesized that the presence of feeders would alter the bird community's composition and benefit individual health. And, for the most part, they were correct. The feeders improved feather quality, increased immune function, reduced stress, and improved antioxidant capacity. But it was not all good news.
Even though feeders increased immune function, there was an increased incidence of disease in birds that used feeders (10.3%) versus those that did not (1.2%). Of the diseases that were observed, 79% were avian pox, 9% conjunctivitis (pink eye), 7% cloacal infections, and 5% were fungal skin diseases. Notably, while most of these diseases were also observed at control sites, albeit at much lower prevalence, no birds at control sites had conjunctivitis. However, because these diseases were confirmed through visual means only, the actual prevalence of disease in the birds may be much higher. To address this potential shortcoming, his group and collaborators have recently submitted a grant proposal to use molecular techniques to obtain a more accurate assessment of how prevalent disease is in these populations.
The other striking negative effect of the feeders was a disproportionate increase in brown-headed cowbirds at the feeder sites. Cowbirds are brood-parasites that lay their eggs in the nests of other species that then raise the cowbird chick as their own. Another mouth to feed means lower reproductive success for the parents because fewer of their own chicks survive. So, a greater number of cowbirds could lead to greater brood-parasitization. "We're basically creating a singles bar for the cowbirds," recalled Wilcoxen, which raised the question, "How do we get rid of cowbirds without a pellet gun?" His team will direct future studies that focus on specific types of birdseed that should be less palatable to cowbirds and functionally exclude their presence.
What does this mean for birding community? Should there be a ban on all bird feeders because they may increase the incidence of disease? In short, no. Dr. Wilcoxen and his team recognize that this is the first of what will likely be many studies that examine the effects of bird feeding on avian health, good and bad. In addition to determining if there is a type of birdseed that would deter cowbirds, the team is also interested in whether different formulations that vary in fat or protein content, or even contain anti-oxidants, may alter the health of birds. "We can put out birdfeed anytime we want" said Wilcoxen. "We want to make sure we're not causing problems to the birds we're trying to help."
Shane Hanlon earned his B.S. at the University of Pittsburgh, where he studied amphibian toxicology with Dr. Rick Relyea. He is now a graduate candidate at the University of Memphis under the advisement of Dr. Matt Parris, where he studies how agricultural contaminants alter host-pathogen interactions in amphibians. In his free time (i.e., not during field season) he blogs about ecology and policy at idogoodscience.blogspot.com.

I love the design and the chapel happens to look just like the little country church we're baptizing Will in. Ninety-five percent of our guests have email access, so this online invitation works perfectly, but what about guests like my grandfather, who is one hundred percent not online? I could obviously have just called him up and given him the details, but I liked the idea of him getting some mail for this special occasion for our family.
Luckily, Paperless Post has recently introduced paper versions of some online cards and I was able to order 10 paper invitations to send to my offline loved ones. I was so excited when they showed up in my mailbox.
Looking just like the online invites and printed on beautiful, thick paper.
This worked out as the best of both worlds for me - all the conveniences of online invites paired with good, old fashioned snail mail. I definitely will be pasting one of these paper invites into Will's baby book!

Fatal Two-Vehicle Collision on Highway 1
By Manitoba Post Staff
@manitobapost
HEADINGLY - A two-vehicle collision on Highway 1 in the RM of Cartier has taken the life of a 55 year-old man from Matlock.
A semi-trailer travelling west on Highway 1 was stopped and waiting to turn north onto Cabot Road, when it was rear-ended by a van.
The driver and lone occupant of the van, a 55-year-old male from Matlock, was pronounced deceased at the scene.
The driver of the semi-trailer, a 21-year-old male, from the RM of Springfield, was not injured.
Alcohol does not appear to be a factor in the collision.
Headingley RCMP, along with a Forensic Collision Reconstructionist, continue to investigate.

Aesthetic pollutant loadings in upstream combined sewers.
DIGAMN, Christopher James. (2003). Aesthetic pollutant loadings in upstream combined sewers. Doctoral, Sheffield Hallam University (United Kingdom)..
An improvement to the standard of discharges from combined sewer overflows is necessary to meet the challenges set by the EC Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (1991). To prevent aesthetic pollutants being discharged from a CSO, it is first necessary to gain an understanding of the quantity and temporal distribution of solids that enter the structure. This knowledge can then be used to predict the quantity of solids that are presented to a CSO under storm conditions. A field study was undertaken to determine the quantity and temporal distribution of solids entering a combined sewerage system and their transportation through the network in dry and wet weather. Flow monitoring and aesthetic pollutant sampling was undertaken in dry and wet weather at three catchments that contained different population types. The aesthetic pollutants sampled were characterised and tested in a laboratory to determine their settling rate.Analysis of the sampled data has indicated that aesthetic pollutants are stored in upstream sewers and private drainage connections during the dry weather period prior to a storm occurring. These pollutants and those within the flow in dry weather are transported out of the sewer at the start of the storm as part of a first foul flush. Sampling showed that over 80% of the solids by mass were faeces and toilet tissue, with a comparatively small number of sanitary products in the remaining percentage. Different solids are stored at different rates and this is clearly linked to the antecedent dry weather period and the quantity of solids that enter the system. The quantity of solids entering is also linked to the population type.A solid input and transportation model has been developed to predict the quantity of solids entering and moving through an upstream sewer system in dry and wet weather. The accuracy of the model is good particularly in the context of the variability of the solids that enter the system. The model predicts the quantity, rate and temporal distribution of six types of solids that could enter an upstream CSO and could aid in the development of more cost effective CSO solutions.

I'm sorry if I do not understand much, I'm fairly to new to this. When I save data such as username and password in my application, the data is inserted as what I input but with added text, Example: I would send the username "Mark" to be inserted, but when I go to look at my database, it is put in as "System.Windows.Forms.TextBox, Text: Mark". How can I change this to only inserting the Username I Input?

A: You need to use Text property of textbox control, to fetch the actual text stored:-
 command.CommandText = "insert into userdata (Username,[Password])
           values('" + txt_Username.Text + "','" + txt_Password.Text + "')";

Apart from this please note your query is open for SQL Injection attack.
So, you should use Parameterized query something like this:-
command.CommandText = "insert into userdata (Username,[Password])
               values(?,?)";
command.Parameters.Add("?",OleDbType.VarChar,20).Value = txt_Username.Text;

and similarly add parameter for @Password.

2nd Lt. Ozzie Nelson, an 'Army nurse attached to the 6th Field Hospital, sailed for Europe abroad the ocean liner SS Ile de France late in World War II. It was the experience of a lifetime.
The year before she had graduated from the Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston. Nelson was trained to be an operating room nurse.
The 20-year-old nurse went aboard the French ship at Boston. That in itself was an experience.
Nelson chucked it over the side as she got aboard the ship. When she looked down at the water at dockside all she could see was an ocean of lemons tossed there by others who didn't think much of the Army's remedy for seasickness.
What she recalls about the trip over was having to get up in the middle of the night because the liner's crew had picked up a German U-boat in the area.
The other thing she recalls about the trip over was that there were eight nurses sailing aboard the Ile de France with thousands of servicemen. Any time one of the nurses left their cabin they were accompanied by a personal guard who protected them from thousands of G.I.s aboard the liner.
Thy arrived in Edinburgh, Scotland and immediately left by train for England. Eventually Nelson was sent to Essex to set up an operating room for the 6th Field Hospital. It was from there she spent much of her time in the operating room working on 8th Air Force servicemen as an operating room nurse.
"The worst thing that happened to me is when you went to see how a patient who had been in the operating room earlier in the day was doing and he was dead," she said.
At one point she volunteered to fly to France with a dozen or so other Army nurses to pick up seriously wounded servicemen and fly them back o England for improved medical care. They flew in B-24 bombers and took out four seriously injured patients in stretchers put in the bomb bay.
While serving in England the 82nd Airborne Division came to town. Her brother was a captain in the 82nd. She found out where he was and called his unit.
"'This is Capt. Oswald," the voice on the other end of the phone said. "'This is Lt. Oswald,' I told my brother," she said.
They got together for a few beers for the first time in three years. He had gone to war in 1942 and by then it was 1945. They had a great reunion.
Following V-E Day (Victory in Europe) Nelson sailed for home aboard a victory ship.
Later she went to work as a nurse for the Veterans Administration.
"I ended up working for a huge VA hospital in Providence, R.I. I retired as a nursing supervisor in 1983 when I was 62," she said.

Home Politics National Analysts Sound Off On Human Rights Issues At Singapore Summit
Analysts Sound Off On Human Rights Issues At Singapore Summit
By: Hanna Bogorowski | Contributor
As President Donald Trump prepares for a historical meeting with the leader of North Korea, many news outlets and human rights campaigners are asking why the regime's history of human rights violations will be left out of the discussion.
Trump will meet with Kim Jong Un on Tuesday in Singapore to discuss a more permanent solution for peacekeeping, marking the first time a sitting United States president has met with a North Korean leader.
Trump, as well as Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, has insisted on nothing less than the denuclearization of Kim's region as the outcome of talks. This declaration has left many to wonder if the nation's gross human rights violations, which the U.S. Department of State has deemed among the worst in the world, will be left untouched.
Trump insisted after the G7 Summit that "every issue is going to be raised," when asked if the issue of gulags with Kim Jong Un would be on the table.
However, the administration has now decided not to bring up such issues, two administration officials reportedly told NBC News.
Experts on each side are grappling with the correct approach.
"We're talking here about one of the most repressive governments in the world, which the U.N. has found culpable in committing crimes against humanity against its own people — so pushing human rights off the summit table is neither responsible nor ethical," Phil Robertson of Human Rights Watch told Voa News.
Olivia Enos, a policy analyst at The Heritage Foundation's Asian Studies Center, emphasized the uniqueness of Kim's desire for legitimacy on the world stage, and how that plays into discussions. Currently, she acknowledged, Kim and his regime have faced no punishment for their human rights violations, which makes it even more important that it be questioned at the summit in front of the world.
"If the summit passes by and the Trump administration does not raise the issue of human rights, they will have missed an opportunity" to potentially alleviate the human rights disaster in the long run by not pressuring Kim on this area, Enos told The Daily Caller News Foundation.
Other experts argue that the answer is rather simple: Denuclearization of the North Korean peninsula is far more important than any other issue at hand.
"I really think it would be a mistake to overload the agenda," Joseph Yun, a former United States special representative for North Korea policy, told the Washington Post.
Yun, who secured the release of American hostage Otto Warmbier, said the talks between the two leaders should "concentrate on denuclearization above all else."
"The administration is not making human rights concessions a part of these negotiations and in fairness, that's in keeping with decades of U.S. practices and policies where the nuclear threat from North Korea to the United States is prioritized over its awful human rights," Ken Dilanian, an intelligence and national security reporter for NBC, told MSNBC.
Focusing on a single issue in such consequential nuclear talks between leaders is something former President Barack Obama also juggled, except in regards to Iran.
"The Trump administration gave quite a bit of criticism to the Iran Deal for not including human rights. The Obama administration mostly countered by saying it was a deal that focused on preventing Iran from developing nuclear weapons. Human rights, missile tests, supporting terrorism remained outside the scope for a later date," Melissa Hanham, a senior research associate at the James Martin Center for Nonproliferation Studies, told TheDCNF.
The difference between the two talks is that North Korea already has nuclear weapons, but the notion to hold other concessions for later bilateral talks mirrors the upcoming dilemma with North Korea. (RELATED: Kim Jong Un Arrives In Singapore For Summit With Trump)
Trump and Kim Jong Un will meet at the Capella Hotel on Singapore's Sentosa Island at 9 p.m. Eastern time. After that, the two leaders will meet behind closed doors, and later in front of the press.

Q: How to make a personal facebook app I'm trying to make a facebook application that would do something on my own timeline. I can't understand facebook's own manual about this so i'm not really sure how things work there, so i'm hoping someone can clarify things here. I don't want anyone installing that application or somehow abusing it to post things on my timeline in my name. What steps should i take to prevent these things if possible?

A: Beyond what you have learned yet, you can use the php-sdk to authenticate and then check the visitors user id.
"i will edit in code as we discover what you are trying to accomplish, action wise."
php sdk example.
        // init php sdk here.
        // check if we have a user
        // call api to get info about use
$user_profile = $facebook->api('/me');

        // if we have a user, we can use that user id as a wrapper to filter content.

if($user_profile[id]==='000000000'){
        // 000000000 is your facebook id for this example.
        // i am logged in, and only i can see this.
        // get some info, make a few posts, add photos etc; here.
}

cURL example
when you curl 'me', it ensures that it is the current session user, then when you compare that to your actual user id, you can gate "so to speak" content that only you can see and use.
cURL'ing to the me connection is only needed to create gate, you can do all your other curl calls after you know it is you doing it.
http://anotherfeed.com/curl.api.php?objid=me

here is an example, when i curl me, it looks for a logged in user, if there is an access token which for this example i excluded, it will return an array with my "me" info including my id.
Hard coded i will use $me=$curlresults[id] which is my user id returned by the session call.
to gate i simply
$me=$curlresults[id]
if($me==='myfacebookuserid'){
// do my other curl calls here, i know only i can see this.
}

Full cURL example.

*

*get your user access token for your app from the token tool below, store it somewhere safe so you can pass it in via url param or session param.... https://developers.facebook.com/tools/access_token/

*add your facebook user id where it says myfacebookuserid

*to secure this you will need to pass the access token in with post, get or session.

*for this example we will use the get method.

yourpage.php?user_token=youruseraccesstoken is how it is passed in this example.

$access_token = $_GET['user_token'];
$build = 'https://graph.facebook.com/me?'.$access_token.'';
function GetCH($url){
$ch=null;
if(!$ch){
$ch = curl_init();
}
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "".$url."");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FORBID_REUSE, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FRESH_CONNECT, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 10);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 20);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_IPRESOLVE, CURL_IPRESOLVE_V4);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPAUTH, CURLAUTH_ANY);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
$return=curl_exec($ch);
 if(!curl_errno($ch)){

Pheromone lure for carob moth, Ectomyelois ceratoniae. Environmentally friendly, species specific mimic pheromone loaded in controlled release rubber septa dispenser lure.
Analysis of ISCAlure-Ceratoniae and other competitor carob moth lures have shown that the optimal pheromone loading or isomeric purity are not used in competitor lures, which is one of the causes for the lower efficacy and longevity of competitor lures. For more information about carob moth pheromone lure analysis, and the field efficacy and longevity of carob moth pheromone lures, please click here.
These are the same lures selected and deployed by leading date palm and almond agricultural entities and carob moth researchers, among them United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), United States Agency for International Development (USAID), University of California (UC) extension entomologists, Australia Department of Primary Industries (DPI) and Almond Board of Australia for monitoring and trapping programs for Ectomyelois ceratoniae.
The pheromone active ingredient of the ISCAlure-Ceratoniae pheromone lure is EPA registered and EPA NOP approved for organic production. It is the only carob moth pheromone lure which uses EPA registered and NOP approved pheromone active ingredient.

Bhujangasana or the Cobra pose is among the most versatile yoga postures which are imperative in the yoga practice all attributed to its enormous health benefits. It is amazing backbend which strengthens, flexes, and tones the spine. It also makes both reproductive and digestive systems more efficient. It also assists in opening up the chakras.
The Bhujangasana works on four of the important chakras, namely, the Anahata Chakra, the Visuddhi Chakra, the Svadhisthana Chakra, and Manipura Chakra. When this pose is practiced by keeping the eyes opened, as you look up, the optical nerves as well as vision benefit from this pose. It is the eighth pose of the Surya Namaskar 12 poses. It is also helpful in energizing backbend which resembles the raised head of a cobra.
In order to do this asana, you need to ensure that you have stomach and bowels empty before practicing this asana. It is better to have the meals at least 5 to 6 hours before you perform this asana so that the food gets easily digested and there is ample energy to expand during its practice. It is recommended to practice this yoga earlier in the morning. But if you can't make it, then you can also practice this in the evening.
First, you have to lie flat on the stomach. Now place the hands on the side and make sure that the toes touch each other.
Then move the hands to your front such that they are at the level of shoulders and place the palms on the floor.
Now place the weight of the body on the palms, inhale and then raise the head as well as the trunk. Note that the arms should be particularly bent at the elbows at this stage.
Now, you have to arch the neck backward in order to attempt to replicate the posture of a cobra with the raised hood. Make sure that the shoulder blades are significantly firm and the shoulders are far away from the ears.
Now press the hips, feet, and thighs to the floor.
Hold this position for nearly 20 to 30 seconds and breathe normally during it. Feel that the stomach is pressed well against the floor. With this practice, you will be able to hold this asana for nearly 2 minutes.
In order to release this pose, slowly bring the hands back to your sides. Now rest the head on the ground by means of bringing the forehead touched with the floor. Place the hands under the head. Then slowly rest the head on one side and then breathe.
Also, pregnant women shouldn't do this asana.
If you are a beginner, then you shouldn't go all into this asana. In case you do, you would most probably end up straining the neck and the back. You need to find the height which is suitable for you and make sure that you don't strain the back as well as the neck. Once you have done it, take the hands off the floor for a few seconds such that you have a complete extension.
It is a complete deep backbend which makes your spine more flexible and stronger.
It tones that organs that lie in your lower abdomen.
It also stimulates the reproductive, digestive and urinary systems.
It assists in regulating metabolism and hence helps in balancing the weight.
It firms up the buttocks.
It provides the lungs, chest, shoulders and abdomen, a good stretch.
It helps in releasing stress.
It is known to open up the heart and the lungs.

A while back I blogged about stuff I bought at my local Sunday flea markets, and how there was a tee shirt I wanted to get. Well, I went back and got it. Normally tees are not my thing, especially funny print tees, but when I saw this I thought it was kinda fun and cute.
Phở refers to the popular Vietnamese beef and noodle dish, which I really love. The 'app' buttons picture a bowl, a cow, noodles, and a pair of chopsticks - all the necessary components for this yummy dish!
And I also came home with these adorable patterned stockings for $3 each. Can't wait for the weather to get cooler so I can wear them.
These are my recent beauty buys. A exfoliator from Lush, called Angels on Bare Skin, and some moisturiser. The exfoliator was recommended by fellow blogger Hyaoka, from Tokyo Loves Colour. Will review this in a few weeks time.
And finally, Mickey wants to wish everyone a Happy Australia Day!
It's likely to be a scorcher today, so I'll be trying to keep cool. Take care, have a great day!
Omg the food looks amazing. And I'd totally wear that shirt.
Haha that shirt is neat, I do love me a good bowl of pho on a cold day. And your pup is just an adorable little thing :) I love fluffy dogs.
Your dog is so cute! I've always wanted a dog, but my mom wouldn't let me, haha.
I like the Chinese New year food. Happy Aust day to you.
yum food and nice stuff!! :) I like that noodles with shrimps!!
Naw that top is adorable (and hilarious!) Also, Mickey is so cute! Happy Australia Day to Mickey too!
