Bootcamp Experience: 5CA's first work & holiday project in Valencia
In beautiful Valencia, Spain, one of our teams came together from all over the globe for a unique Bootcamp Experience – a week of training, work and fun! Tudor, one of the Project Leads, created this special work & holiday experience for his international team. Check out the full story on how it all went down, penned by our own Marina Kliueva!
It was an ordinary Tuesday afternoon, back in July when the heatwave had just hit the Netherlands and all of us 5CA office employees were having a hard time focusing on work – it was simply too nice outside.
Time for a weekly meeting with my Project Lead – nothing special, just a chat. "Marina, I want to organize a Bootcamp for our project in Spain", says Tudor. "We'll get everyone under one roof, work together, have fun together. Would you be up for it?'' He's looking at me in anticipation, and the excitement in his eyes is contagious. Well, can you guess the answer? Just two months later, there we were. Nine people from eight different countries, together in a huge apartment with a terrace and a swimming pool, somewhere in beautiful Valencia, Spain. SAY WHAAAAT? 🙂
"For me, the Bootcamp was the most fun and interesting work and holiday experience I've ever participated in. Part of that is of course because I planned and organized it, which was a first time for me as well. All in all, I'm really happy with the outcome and hope to participate in future editions as well!"
Our team consists of office and remote employees. Even though we have been working together for some time already, most of us didn't have a chance to meet in person. I expected that meeting them face to face and working in the same room for the first time might feel a bit odd. And oh, was I wrong! Right of the bat finally being all together felt like the most natural thing we could imagine.
On the first night, when almost everyone went to sleep, two other teammates and I accidentally locked ourselves out of the house. We were out on the terrace, and once we realized we couldn't reach anybody to open the door and there were only four hours left until we had to be 'up' again, suddenly everything became so hilarious! The three of us were just sitting there making silly jokes until our project lead woke up and finally freed us. That was the real team-building, we said then.
"Being taken out of the ordinary routine in a new unfamiliar country with the people that I've talked to only via messages and calls was just awesome. I did not expect to get so close with the people, which makes it even better. I am certain that the Bootcamp largely enhanced our team chemistry and synergy, which is going to improve the quality of work we do!"
There was a lot of work to handle during the Bootcamp, but we worked side by side and there was always room for fun! We were taking our breaks by the pool, eating lunch on a sunlit terrace, and when the work was done, we'd be heading downtown – strolling the streets of Valencia up and down, swimming in the Mediterranean sea, drinking beers and sharing stories. One of our teammates, Carlos, came all the way from Colombia – he told me how special it was for him. Later on it turned out that Carlos would also celebrate his birthday with us, which we did in a very family-like atmosphere.
If I had to pick my favorite and most surreal moment, that was when out of nowhere all of my teammates gathered up to wish me a happy birthday, cake included! But wait, there's more! I had never thought I would end up in a cold pool at night in Valencia as a special treat for my birthday. Thanks again! I'll make sure to keep memories of it in the dearest way possible.
When I think back to Valencia, my mind always goes to the same moment – the very last night of the Bootcamp. Some people had already left, and the rest of us were feeling pretty bummed out. I took some time to go downtown alone to take photos. When it started getting dark, I joined the rest of the crew on the beach. It was an incredibly warm, starry night, and we went swimming in the dark. Everyone felt that these were our last moments together, so I was trying to enjoy and remember every second of it. When we got into the water, we saw fireworks in the sky. Dark waters of the Mediterranean around us and bright flashes reflecting on it – that was pure magic.
Afterwards there was packing, and goodbyes, but only one thing really mattered – we came together as a team of colleagues but would be flying home as friends. Nine people from eight different countries, gathered together for this unforgettable Bootcamp Experience. If it weren't for 5CA, we would never have met. But thanks to our Project Lead who dared to organize the very first 5CA Bootcamp – we know now that everything is possible. Especially with the right people by your side.

It's leaf-peeping season in Naneda, New York, and Agnes Blythe has settled into helping her eccentric Great Aunt Effie restore the Stagecoach Inn. It seems nothing can shatter the golden idyll―or the ka-ching of cash registers―until a mechanic at Hatch Automotive is found bludgeoned to death with a wrench.
Sweeping into action, Agnes and Aunt Effie are on the scene, when a tourist-laden motor coach breaks down outside of town. The Stagecoach Inn isn't exactly ready for guests, but Agnes and Effie agree to take in a group of seniors while they wait for repairs. But then, Agnes finds herself pulled into the investigation when she learns her new boyfriend, gorgeous Otis Hatch, is the Naneda Police Department's prime suspect.

Recently, I attended Hyper Japan, the UK's biggest J-culture and anime convention (and it's seriously worth going to, if you've got a pair of comfortable shoes). There was, as you can imagine, plenty to do and to see – and in the way of geek fashion, it was heaven.
It's where I fell head over heels in love with Genki Gear, an indie t-shirt (and hoodies, and cool gifts) shop which prints their own designs, right here in the UK. And my god, the designs are so cute I had to restrain myself from buying all the things at their stall.
Genki Gear (run by Lydia English) has been around since 2006, and they've been a big presence at various conventions, like Hyper Japan, Nine Worlds (just this past weekend) and MCM London Comic Con. Aside from their t-shirts, which are 100% cotton and of a fairware manufacturer (with the designs silkscreen printed in the UK), they also make hoodies, women's vest tops and gifts like mugs, cards and posters.
Why buy from Genki Gear?
Because the designs are super cute, unusual and unique. And you'd be supporting an indie shop, which I'm always in approval of!
They don't have a bricks and mortar store as of yet (although I hope they will have some sort of high street presence in the future – for example, at a shop like Forbidden Planet), so for now you can find Genki Gear online. Or if you want to, you can check out where they're next setting up their stall on their events page. They'll be at Loncon 3, at the Excel Centre from the 14th to the 18th of August (so, from tomorrow).


This site is best viewed when maximized. I'll try to include some other original artwork in with the pics. Okay, it's been awhile since I have done anything with this page. You will see some changes take place. I will keep you updated whenever possible, and I'm glad to be working on this site again.
This is mainly about SMJ, SMJ Again, and SMJtoX. This site is being updated, so look for the changes as they occur. If you want to see something added, or to give feedback e-mail me, Marine. I've already added a page, and have some ideas for a few more. I'll also add some banners and buttons soon. Also check out The Otaku Cafe. Yippee!
Saber Marionette J is one of my favorite anime series sets. It is about marionettes (or something close to androids) that have the ability to feel human emotion. It takes place on a planet called Terratoo.
Characters are copyrights of Bandai.
Special thanks to Kenneth and Colette for helping me out.
You can find Apple in the new Saber Marionette game.


Y'know that feeling, when you've been reading, or turned around in a vehicle for a while, driving through the mountains or during turbulence in an airplane.
Where everything unsettles, just a little, but you're not quite sick and not even queasy. Just at the edge of it, where you know you have to push the sensation deep down, past your throat, past your heart, into the base of your gut, or you'll be sick all day? Motion Sickness.
That feeling that builds in your stomach and stays there, resting like a viper waiting for the moment when you'll let it control you?
There is a sister to that feeling, that breeds in the heart. It builds and quavers and waits. Just this side of heartsick. Not even quite uncomfortable. It's just at the edge of all that. Emotion Sickness.
And it curls around your chest and nestles against your soul like a viper waiting to strike. Every muscle tensed. Every moment waiting, and watching.
"Open up to me," it says. "For one moment pretend you can feel again, and I will fill that void you have created with longing and desire. That vaccuum in your being, where you have pumped out all feeling and all need through cold, heartless, cynical force of will, should be filled again with my poisons. With anger and fear and doubt."
"Let me kiss you. Let me kill you."
The viper waits for me.
A short excerpt from Lisa33, by Dan Allan.
This last observation is really quite unfair and not what I want to say at all. It's a pretty conservative, homogeneous town, but mostly the people are nice. And really the parade experience was remarkably affecting--that is what I'm going to describe: one of those perfect fall days, blue skies traversed by little white cloudlets, and chilly gusts that send the leaves flying, orange and yellow, out of the trees and swirling everywhere, and people crowding all along the sidewalks. You take your child's hand and walk up to the parade together--past the Methodist church (this week's sermon, "The Meaning of Gratitude"), past the smiling old lady walking her dog, and onto main Street. And without even realizing you have chosen a spot, suddenly there you are, there at your place along the parade route, child on your shoulders, his small hands wrapped around your fingers, holding on, and you hear it in the distance: at first just a low rumbling, a drumming, faint music, then swept off in a gust, and then there again, slightly louder, closer, band music, and then suddenly in front of you, blaring, loud, The veterans of Korea 102nd Division Marching Band, in full splendor. And you feel your son bouncing on your shoulders, feel his excitement above you, and the rest passes by you magically, like you are in a dream--clowns on unicycles, sparkling red fire engines, the banners, "Tina's Dance Studio--40 Years," and then behind it the dance troupe of eight-year-old ballerinas, knobby kneed, off-balance, twirling, the float from the local florist shop--pink-and-white mums, the balding politician waving from an antique convertible, and your son wrapping his little hands in your hair, and then a musket battalion, a wagon pulled by Clydesdales, another marching band, full of sour notes, from the middle school.
It feels like it's all happening in a dream. But the strange thing is this: it actually brings a tear to your eye. Because you know that even though you live there, even though it is your home, and you are a part of it, in your heart you know you don't belong there, you never will belong there, because you can never be a part of something that innocent and that perfect. There is no point in mocking the place or the people because the problem is not with them. It is with you. You don't belong.
And so when the fly-over arrives, the grand finale, and the old-fashioned bombers dip down over main street, streaming smoke behind them in red and white and blue, you can't help imagining real bombs falling, the people scattering, the screaming and mayhem, the dead and the wounded scattered about the street, the moaning, the ambulances, the tears to go with your own.
Then it's over. You head home, carrying your son because suddenly he has stepped in front of you and reached his arms up and looked up pleadingly--too tired to walk.
And at home you see your wife and you see that this is where she is happy, where she should be, and you know you will never be rid of that feeling. You are alone with it and you will never be able to express it and it will always be with you."
There is more to say, but I will not cross-polinate this topic with those comments.
I can't really think of anything to add to the snippet above, so I'm letting it stand alone. After all, that is the topic.
I was walking to the Chillout cafe just now, my internet point here in Dublin, when a small sedan hatchback about the size of a mini wizzed by on the edge of Essex Quay, and a blonde that I barely glimpsed (pink top? Maybe a v-neck sweater? Sunglasses?) in the driver seat called out to me as it passed. The words were muffled by the wind and city noise, and distorted by the doppler effect, but I caught the familiar phrase all the same. "Where have you been all my life?!"
I was half tempted to spin in my tracks and wander back, as the car was pulling up to a conveniently red stop light and call out "Right here, what kept you?!"
But it I didn't. I crossed the street and kept walking towards my destination. It did make me smile though, in an odd, disquieting sort of way.
If I find her, when I find her, where will I have been all my life?
Will the answer I am able to give be sufficient, or will it leave me feeling hollow or ashamed?
From The Road. Reprinted with permission.
As you may have noticed, I have not been updating much.
Things have been busy and it is a struggle enough just to keep The Road updated.
Expect some of the more introspective stories and observations from my travels to work there way into this space, but probably not for another few weeks. Until then, I hope you can enjoy our travel log instead, and return here when you get the chance. I will try to do a real update sometime next week, but that is a piecrust promise.

11 Interesting Facts about Turkey.
FactsKing.com / Facts About Countries & Territories / 11 Interesting Facts about Turkey
The Republic of Turkey is situated in southeastern Europe and southwestern Asia bordering the Black Sea, Aegean Sea, and Mediterranean Sea. It shares its land border with eight countries. The country has a total area of 783,562 sq. km with a coastline of 7,200 km. The total population is 82,017,514 (July 2020 est.) and 99.8 percent are Muslim. The capital of Turkey is Ankara and the official language is Turkish.
Turkey Facts
1. The Turkish National Liberation War gave birth to the Republic of Turkey
After the fall of the Ottoman Empire in World War I, its territories were occupied by Britain, France, Russia, and Greece. An Ottoman military commander, Mustafa Kemal, united disorganized resistance groups to fight for national liberation. The Turkish National Liberation War lasted for four years from 1919 to 1922. Their victory led to the signing of a treaty that recognized the creation of a Turkish state and its borders. The Republic of Turkey was proclaimed on October 29, 1923.
2. Excavations in the 1960s unearthed a Stone Age settlement in Turkey
In the 1960s, archeologists found the 37-hectare Neolithic site of Çatalhöyük in Konya. It is considered one of the world's earliest settlements from the Stone Age around 7400 BC, an interesting fact about Turkey. This was the time when early humans left behind their nomadic ways and started farming. The site was well preserved, which clearly showed what life was like during that time. The homes were back-to-back with no doors and windows, and the openings were on the roofs.
3. Turkey has the only city in the world that spans two continents
Istanbul, the largest and most populous city in Turkey, spans two continents. It is separated in two by the Bosporus Strait. Three percent of the city that lies in Europe is referred to as the European Turkey, Eastern Thrace, or Turkish Thrace. The rest of Istanbul that lies in Asia is called Anatolia.
4. There are "fairy chimneys" and cave dwellings in the town of Göreme
Unique rock sites are found in the town of Göreme in Cappadocia. They were created millions of years ago when ancient volcanic eruptions spewed ash that blanketed the region. A fun fact about Turkey is that wind and erosion shaped these tuff or porous rocks into towers, cones, and pinnacles that stretch 130 feet into the sky known as "fairy chimneys." Cave dwellings were carved within these rocks and became home for the locals.
5. Turkey has one of the largest excavated underground cities in the world
The early settlers were able to carve and build a vast network of tunnels and rooms within the rock formations hidden underground in Cappadocia. In 1963, the Derinkuyu City was discovered. It was built around 7th or 8th century BC. This multi-level city is 85 meters deep and can accommodate 20,000 people. There are ventilation shafts, water channels, stables, oil and wine presses, places of worship, and storage rooms for supplies. They were used as a refuge during invasions and religious persecutions.
6. The house of the Virgin Mary, mother of Jesus, is found in Turkey
After the crucifixion and death of Jesus Christ, the apostle John spirited Mary away to keep her safe. Nobody really knew where until a nun by the name of Anne Catherine Emmerich had visions about the place in Ephesus. In 1891, an expedition team found the ruins of a stone house on Mt. Koressos that matched the description in the vision. They learned that the place was revered by the locals and called it Panaya Kapulu, which means "doorway to or gate of the Virgin." The house is believed to be where Mary spent the last years of her earthly life, an interesting fact about Turkey. It was restored and pilgrims all over visit the place.
7. Turkey was the birth place of Santa Claus
Santa Claus, who brings presents for children around the world on Christmas Eve, was based on St. Nicholas, who is the patron saint of children. The saint was born around AD 280 in the ancient Lycian seaport of Patara and he became a bishop in the 4th century in Myra known as Demre in modern-day Turkey. Stories of him as a protector and bringer of gifts to children transformed him into the legendary character of Santa Claus. The Dutch who knew him by his nickname, Sinterklaas, brought his legend to America in the 17th century.
8. Turkey is home to 18 UNESCO World Heritage Sites
The country has a rich history, and so many places here were designated as World Heritage Sites by UNESCO. Two of them are a combination of cultural and natural sites while 16 of them are cultural sites. They include the archeological site of the ancient city of Troy, the historic areas of Istanbul, the Neolithic site of Catalhoyuk, and Ephesus, a fun fact about Turkey. More sites are on the tentative list.
9. Two out of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World are in Turkey
The Temple of Artemis in Ephesus was built in 6th century BC to honor the Greek goddess of the hunt. It was massive and adorned by beautiful works of art. Today, little remains of what was once a magnificent temple. The Mausoleum of Halicarnassus built in 4th century BC was a tomb of Mausolus, ruler of Caria in Asia Minor. The ruins of the mausoleum are still there. The temple and mausoleum in Turkey are two of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.
10. Turkey exports more than 70% of the world's hazelnut
Around 1.8 million acres in Turkey were planted with hazelnut trees of 17 varieties. Each acre has 200 to 280 trees that produced 440 to 1060 pounds of shelled nuts. The condition of the soil, temperature, and climate at the Black Sea region create the ideal place for growing these trees. Most of the nuts were exported to the European Union. With the amount of hazelnuts that the country produced and exported every year, it was dubbed as the hazelnut capital of the world.
11. Istanbul has one of the largest and oldest covered markets in the world
One of the favorite places that tourists visit is the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul that dates back to the 15th century. It has more than 60 covered streets and over 4,000 shops, an interesting Turkey fact. It is the best place to shop for jewelries, antiques, carpets, and textiles.
Turkey is well known for its rich culture and history that can be traced back to ancient times. There is so much to learn and discover that will surprise and amaze those people who visit this beautiful country. With all that it has to offer, it has become one of the world's top travel destinations.

"Making Equality A Reality"

National Chairman & Chief Executive Officer
Roy Innis was born in St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands. He moved from the U.S. Virgin Islands to New York City with his mother in 1946 where he attended Stuyvesant High School. At age 16, Innis joined the U.S. Army and at age 18 he received an honorable discharge. He entered a four-year program in Chemistry at City College of New York. He subsequently held positions as a research chemist at Vick Chemical Company and Montefiore Hospital.
Innis joined CORE's Harlem chapter in 1963. In 1964, he was elected Chairman of the chapter's education committee and became a forceful advocate of community-controlled education and black empowerment. He led CORE's fight for an independent Police Review Board to address cases of police brutality. In 1965, he was elected Chairman of Harlem CORE, after which he mounted a vigorous campaign for establishment of an independent Board of Education for Harlem. A proposition to this end was presented to the 1967 New York State Constitutional Convention.
In the spring of 1967, Innis was appointed the first resident fellow at the Metropolitan Applied Research Center (MARC), headed by Dr. Kenneth Clark. In the summer of 1967, he was elected Second National Vice-Chairman of CORE. Also, in 1967, Innis and nine other black men formed the Harlem Commonwealth Council (HCC), an investment corporation whose long-term goal was to create independence and stability in Harlem. As the first Executive Director at HCC, Innis laid the ground work for what has become a highly successful model of economic development in a black community. During that same period, he was the co-editor and founder of the Manhattan Tribune Newspaper.
Innis was elected National Director of CORE in 1968. In the same year, he drafted the Community Self - Determination Bill of 1968 and garnered bipartisan sponsorship of this bill by one-third of the Senate and over 50 congressmen. This was the first time in U.S. history that a bill drafted by a black organization was introduced into Congress.
Responding to the continuing crisis centering on school integration, Innis offered an alternative plan consisting of community control of educational institutions. As part of this effort, in October, 1970, CORE filed an amicus curiae brief with the U.S. Supreme Court in connection with Swann vs the Charlotte Mackleburg Board of Education. Seeking to enhance and build on the black pride movement of the mid-60's, Innis and a CORE delegation toured seven African countries in 1971. He met with several Heads of State, including Kenya's Jomo Kenyatta, Tanzania's Julius Nyerere and Liberia's William Tolbert. In 1973, Innis became the first American to attend the Organization of African Unity (OAU) in an official capacity. In 1973 he participated in a televised debate with Nobel Physicist William Shockley on the topic of black genetic inferiority.
In 1977, under Innis' leadership, CORE rescued a South Bronx Catholic school that was about to be closed. Working closely with teachers and parents, he established the CORE Community School with more than 200 students.
Roy Innis' involvement in criminal justice matters spans his entire career in CORE. Innis' investigation in the early 80's led to the uncovering of evidence that Wayne Williams was not solely responsible for the Atlanta Child Murders. His defense of victims' rights to defend themselves led to his support and involvement in highly publicized cases such as: the "subway gunman," Bernhard Goetz; "subway token booth clerk", James Grimes; the "candyman good Samaritan", Andy Fredericks; the "black Bernie Goetz", Austin Weeks; and the accused "remember me subway shooter" Clemente Jackson. Roy Innis is a nationally known advocate of 2nd amendment rights.
Some of his activities include: investigating and exposing the Tawana Brawley hoax; overseeing and participating in a citizen's anti-drug campaign, "One Street At A Time"; championing the rights of immigrants; fighting against public indecency and predatory crime in an all-out effort to clean up New York's crime-ridden streets and subway system. Innis is currently pioneering a multifaceted on-the-job training program for welfare mothers geared to reducing the 1,100,000 welfare roll in New York City.
While colleagues (friends and foes) consider some of his ideas to be controversial, Innis bases his positions always on the sound principles of "truth, logic and courage."
Faithful to this principle, in the 1993 New Your City mayoral primary, Innis challenged incumbent David Dinkins - the first black person to hold that office. His mayoral campaign was the most cost- effective and productive in the history of NY City. He was competitive in over one half of the city's voting districts, winning a borough and 14 assembly districts outright. The mayor outspent Innis by over 40 to 1.
Innis led teams of prominent Americans to Nigeria in 1996, '97 and 1998 to monitor the elections which are part of the transition process from military to civilian rule. He also filed election monitoring reports to both the U.S. Congress and President Clinton. He visited Liberia to assess events during and after the inauguration of President Charles W. Taylor. He visited Sierra Leone to assess recent conditions with ECOMOG troops.

Interstitial Cystitis/Bladder Pain Syndrome (IC/BPS). Persistent or recurrent chronic pelvic pain, pressure or discomfort perceived to be related to the urinary bladder accompanied by at least one other urinary symptom such as an urgent need to void or urinary frequency. Diagnosed in the absence of any identifiable pathology which could explain these symptoms.
Interstitial Cystitis/Hunner lesion. Interstitial cystitis with Hunner lesion has the same symptoms as IC/BPS. Identified on the basis of cystoscopic findings.
FOOTNOTE 9 - The ICS believes this to be a preferable term to "interstitial cystitis". Interstitial cystitis is a specific diagnosis and requires confirmation by typical cystoscopic and histological features. In the investigation of bladder pain, it may be necessary to exclude conditions such as carcinoma in situ and endometriosis.
The East Asian IC Study Group/Society of Interstitial Cystitis of Japan (SICJ) guidelines revived the concept of hypersensitive bladder. (2).
It was the ICS itself which triggered the controversy in 2002 when it changed the name from interstitial cystitis to painful bladder syndrome, thereby inferring that patients had to have pain and consequently also inferring that those who did not have pain – or not what the patients themselves identified as pain – should be excluded.
Furthermore, changing from the disease IC to the syndrome PBS (and later BPS) had (and still has) a disastrous impact on the patients with regard to non-reimbursement of treatment, with the result that vast numbers of patients now have no affordable access to the treatment they need.
Bearing in mind that in the same 2002 ICS LUTS standardisation document the term urgency was also changed with the addition of "sudden" to make it only applicable to overactive bladder/urge incontinence, one can only conclude that all of these changes were aimed at facilitating the smooth marketing of OAB by ensuring that there was no overlap between OAB and IC and that the term urgency could be used exclusively for OAB, despite the fact that urgency has been recorded as a key symptom of IC for almost two centuries, while OAB was only recently invented. (7) It is not unreasonable to think that the ICS now has a moral duty to help put things right for the sake of the patients.
With all patients being bundled together as one "syndrome", with no subtyping, study data has been unreliable and even meaningless. This is further exacerbated by the fact that there is still no international consensus on nomenclature, terminology and definitions nor on diagnostic criteria. This is damaging for research, data sharing and comparing and ultimately for the patient and treatment since the evidence from drug studies is erratic and inconsistent.
Prevalence figures are consequently meaningless with the disease considered rare in some countries and common in others.
Nomenclature and definitions continue to be a major problem. There are not only multiple different names and combinations, but definitions of each of these names may be quite different in different guidelines.
The Japanese and East Asian research groups revived the old ICS term hypersensitive bladder, also being used by research groups in France, to use as an all-encompassing term before further subtyping. Hypersensitive bladder (HSB) is pain, discomfort or pressure (i.e. with or without pain) usually associated with increased urinary frequency day and night and/or an urgent need to void in the absence of obvious pathology. This term is increasingly being used worldwide.
It is widely felt that Hunner lesion is a distinct disease with characteristic cystoscopic findings and should not be combined with non-lesion disease, certainly not in studies. Many experts in the IC/BPS/HSB world believe that Hunner lesion should now be cut off completely and made a separate disease, while others prefer to make it a phenotype.
An atlas of cystoscopy is urgently needed since many urologists still fail to diagnose lesions since they are unsure of what they are looking for.
Phenotyping is high on the list of priorities. It may play a key role in improving treatment and research. An effective method is still being sought. However, the most important priority right now must be to achieve international agreement on terminology, definitions and diagnostic criteria. Everything else depends on this.

The Supreme Court on Monday resumed the hearing of Panama Papers case, the Prime Minister's children Maryam Nawaz, Hassan Nawaz and Hussain Nawaz submitted their reply.
It was reportedly stated in reply that Maryam Nawaz was a trustee of Nielsen and Nescom companies and she has not been a beneficiary of any off Shore Company. He said, all the allegations levelled against Maryam Nawaz are baseless.
Maryam, Hassan and Hussain Nawaz are mature and adults, the reply stated.

Statue takes long way home
Edmonton Archbishop Richard Smith blesses the 500-year-old statue donated to the Discalced Carmelites. Photo by Lincoln Ho
By Kyle Greenham, Canadian Catholic News
EDMONTON -- After travelling from Italy to Portugal to China, a 500-year-old wooden statue of the Infant Jesus has reached its final destination — a Carmelite monastery west of Edmonton.
The 16th-century statue depicts Christ as a child wearing a red gown, golden cape and crown. The Tang family has donated it to the Carmelite Monastery of St. Joseph located near Spruce Grove.
For Edmonton's Cacilda Tang, the Infant Jesus is a cherished symbol of her family's faith and dedication to prayer. Tang went so far as to call it a childhood friend.
"I remember the times when my mother would carry me and put me in front of the Infant Jesus, telling me to throw a kiss to Him," Tang said.
"I loved that. I was so small I could only see Him face to face when my mother carried me. I would talk to Him, pray to Him, and, being the youngest of seven children, I took Him as a playmate."
The statue had been in the Tang family since the 1940s, when Cacilda's mother, Celeste Vong, found it at a second-hand store in Macau, a former Portuguese colony in China. It is believed the statue made its way from Italy to Macau through Portuguese merchants who travelled and traded in the Orient. It is nearly identical to the Infant Jesus statue on display in the Discalced Carmelite Church of Our Lady Victorious in Prague, Czech Republic.
Tang and her family brought the statue with them when they immigrated to Canada in the 1960s. Their father, Horacio do Conceicao, built an altar for it in the living room, where the family would kneel and pray the rosary every evening.
"Our parents taught us to have great devotion to the Infant Jesus, and to know how our family has been so blessed by the Lord," Tang said.
The family vowed to give the statue only to a convent or monastery. They had even turned down $3,000 from the University of British Columbia, which wanted it for their Department of Ancient Studies.
The Tangs decided to donate the statue to the Discalced Carmelite nuns — a cloistered, contemplative order near Edmonton — when the family moved to Western Canada. The nuns have sown new red and gold garments for the statue to replace clothing other Carmelites made for the statue when the family originally bought it.
The figure was blessed by Edmonton Archbishop Richard Smith on Aug. 15.

«Eight Miles High» — песня американской рок-группы Byrds. Написана была участниками группы Джином Кларком, Дэвидом Кросби и Джимом Макгуинном (также известным как Роджер Макгуинн). Вышла отдельным синглом 14 марта 1966 года. Потом вошла в появившийся на прилавках 18 июля того же года третий студийный альбом группы Byrds Fifth Dimension.

Музыкальное влияние на песню оказали Рави Шанкар и Джон Колтрейн. «Eight Miles High» вместе с песней «Why», написанной Макгуинном и Кросби и вышедшей на стороне «Б» того же сингла, считается важной вехой в становлении музыкальных стилей психоделический рок, рага-рок и психоделический поп. Музыкальные критики часто называют «Eight Miles High» первой настоящей песней в жанре психоделического рока и классикой контркультуры 1960-годов.

Вскоре после выхода песни она подверглась запрету на радио в США. Случилось это после того, как профессиональный журнал для вещателей Gavin Report увидел в её тексте дополнительный смысл, а именно про употребление наркотиков.

Песня достигла 14 места в США (в Billboard Hot 100) и 24 места в Великобритании (в сингловом чарте UK Singles Chart).

Песня «Eight Miles High» стала третьей и последней песней группы Byrds, достигшей первой двадцатки в США, а также их последним релизом перед уходом из группы Джина Кларка, бывшего на тот момент основным автором песен группы.

Премии и признание
В 2004 году журнал Rolling Stone поместил песню «Eight Miles High» в оригинальном исполнении группы Byrds на 150 место своего списка «500 величайших песен всех времён». В списке 2011 года песня находится на 151 месте.

Кроме того, в 2014 году британский музыкальный журнал New Musical Express поместил песню «Eight Miles High» в исполнении Byrds на 348-е место уже своего списка «500 величайших песен всех времён».

Также «Eight Miles High» вместе с ещё двумя песнями в исполнении группы Byrds — «Hickory Wind» и «Mr. Tambourine Man» — входит в составленный Залом славы рок-н-ролла список 500 Songs That Shaped Rock and Roll.

В 1999 году оригинальный сингл «Eight Miles High» группы Byrds (вышедший в 1966 году на лейбле Columbia Records) был принят в Зал славы премии «Грэмми».

Q: Can ultrasounds generate lift? Imagine a plate, the bottom side is flat and the top has dimples (or other structures that increase surface area)
If we vibrate it ultrasonically left and right wouldn't it experience lift because of different air pressures on each side due to turbulent air flow on the top side?

Q: As3: Instantiation attempted on a non-constructor (BitmapData) I'm so sorry if this question has been answered before or the answer is painfully obvious, but I could really use some help.
So I have this Class I want to create instances off of. The idea is to give each instance a unique Bitmap for later usage, but I've run into some problems.
The code in my timeline looks like this:
var en3:Chime_enemy = new Chime_enemy();
en3.icon_ = thundertest; //an image in my library

And here is the code in my Class. I'll post two functional options without the desired result: (1)
public class Chime_battler extends MovieClip
{
    public var bit:Bitmap;
    public var b:BitmapData;
    public var icon_:Class;

    public function Chime_battler()
    {
        bit = new Bitmap;
        b = new thundertest(30,30); //Should use icon_
        bit.bitmapData = b;
    }
}

However this also worked (IIRC), but seeing as I had to use addChild it was not a desired option: (2)
public class Chime_battler extends MovieClip
{
    public var bit:Bitmap;
    public var b:BitmapData;
    public var icon_:Class;

    public function Chime_battler()
    {
        this.addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, onAddedToStage);
    }

    private function onAddedToStage(e:Event):void
    {
        this.removeEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, onAddedToStage);

        bit = new Bitmap;
        b = new icon_;
        bit.bitmapData = b;
    }

I basically want to use (2), but placed in the constructor function as (1) is.
Here's how I will use it later on (in the timeline):
var img:Bitmap = new Bitmap();
img = en3.bit;
addChild(img);

I'm sorry if this makes no sense whatsoever. I'd appreciate any help possible.

A: I would do something like this:
public class Chime_battler extends MovieClip {
    public var icon:Bitmap = new Bitmap;
    public function Chime_battler(iconBmd:BitmapData) {
        icon.bitmapData = iconBmd;
    }
}

And then:
var en3:Chime_Battler = new Chime_battler(new thundertest);
addChild(en1.icon);

This way you can also save a bit of memory using the same bitmapdata for all instances (if you don't plan on modifying it in each instance):
var thunderIcon:BitmapData = new thundertest;
...
var en1:Chime_Battler = new Chime_battler(thunderIcon);
var en2:Chime_Battler = new Chime_battler(thunderIcon);
...
addChild(en1.icon);
addChild(en2.icon);

However, if you really need to pass the class name and create the instance inside your constructor (it's a bit ugly, but sometimes it's needed) your constructor would be like this:
public class Chime_battler extends MovieClip {
    public var icon:Bitmap = new Bitmap;
    public function Chime_battler(IconClass:Class) {
        icon.bitmapData = new IconClass;
    }
}

And then:
var en3:Chime_Battler = new Chime_battler(thundertest);
addChild(en1.icon);


Have you ever thought about writing or creating an e-book? What would you write about? Do you even know what an e-book is?
For me, write an e-book?
What could I teach someone else.
Or better yet when there is so much information online why would I need to write one myself!
Could I make money on it?
The more I thought about it the more I started having ideas.
I am the type of person who explains things well, I have others coming to me for explanations all the time. I sit them down and we walk through it. I like doing that, and even for me if I don't know the answer I work through it until it works. That is who I am.
I suppose that is the mom coming out of me.
But, when someone suggested that I write an e-book to get my business off and running I thought What? How? and a few more questions to go with it!
You hear about those that have created an e-book for this subject and for that idea. And the biggest part of it is that they are making a lot of money from it.
Lets break that down and see if it is possible for me and even for you!
Or better yet: An e-book is an electronic version of a traditional print book that can be read by using a personal computer or by using an e-book reader. Users can purchase an e-book on diskette or CD, or the most popular method of getting an e-book is to purchase a downloadable file from a Web site.
E-books are presented to the reader visually or aurally, with only the limitations of the electronic publishing's potential. Components other than text have been considered enhancements, including multimedia (sound, images, film/video/animated graphics), however they want it to be displayed.
Although it is not necessary to use a reader application or device in order to read an E-book (most books can be read as PDF files), they are becoming so popular because they enable options similar to those of a paper book – readers can bookmark pages, make notes, highlight passages, and save selected text, yet you do not have to have the pile of books with you.
If you ever thought about creating an e-book now is the time. What would you like to share. Most of the creators are just ordinary people sharing things that they know. They aren't teachers or marketers per say, but they have a desire to show others what they like to do.
With this demand is on the rise for online courses it gives anyone, like you and me, willing to try this type of creation the opportunity to start – and – grow – their online business. When you learn how to overcome some of the challenges, you too can create a great money making opportunity right from your home computer.
Ok, before I tell you how to get started and to get your mind thinking, I wanted to share some history of the e-book.
It started with an idea in 1945 Vannevar Bush, a pioneering engineer in the development of analogue computing, published an article in which he introduced the Memex: a hypothetical instrument to control the ever-accumulating body of scientific literature. He envisioned an active desk that performed as a storage and retrieval system. A Memex user would consult a book by tapping a code on a keyboard, bringing up the text. The Memex had many features that are now familiar components of e-books: pages, page turners, annotation capability, internal and external linking, and the potential for storage, retrieval, and transmittal. However, Bush imagined that all this would be accomplished through the miracle of microfilm.
Finding an idea for your first course.
Creating the content for your course.
Setting up the technology to protect and sell your course.
Selling your course to the right people.
Lets break these down a bit.
Finding an idea: What can I come up with that is not already out there. That's easy. If its out there and people are buying it then you already have a market for it and the buyers will come. If you come up with something new then the market is harder to get.
Finding an idea comes from inside of you. People like to buy from people who are similar to them, and if you show them "Hey, I was just like you, and I learned how to do it." it will help people believe they can do it too.
So, there is what you call "getting what you pay for" When you pay for something it's much more valuable that if you got it for free. Also, people rarely take action on the things that they read. However, when they PAY for something, they are more likely to take action and complete the task that they pay for. It's a win for you and a win for them.
Most people genuinely care about other people. They truly want to support others they like and people who help them, so they are willing to pay for good information….ie: your e-book.
You don't have to be an expert or have a marketing degree to share ideas and thoughts. You learn and then create, then learn some more and create some more. It's hard to explain it any easier.
Get in while the time is right!
So, what do you think, Could you come up with an ebook?
When I started with my online business I started gathering and sharing. I needed to find my ground. I needed to find my words. Words can come in many forms, but you need to be visible and give your readers something to see. Now that I have things going smoothly, an e-book might just be the thing I need.
As I mentioned in the beginning, others keep asking if I am creating an e-book. So, this is me starting and you can start right alongside of me. It's your invitation, click here to get started now.
How I am starting is by bogging. I am getting my feet wet, adapting, and aiming myself for the big dunk. This is the learning process. So my book starts. The more you start writing and flowing with ideas everyday will give you many options to share with others.
I know that you are thinking now!
I know you think that "I can do this too"!
So come start right alongside of me and buy your biog, and learn how to grow. Doing it together will give both of us the win.
Get started with your own here and learn how to find what you share to help you have a profitable business online too.
Good luck with your journey or educating other business owners. I have found writing an e-book is definitely a process. I personally keep all of my ideas in my notebook and try a lot of the ideas out as blog posts first. My first book is still a work in progress but it is going to be out in 2015.
Thanks for the encouragement Kim. My ideas have been in blog posts, now its time to summarize and put them toward a book.
They say there's a book in all of us! Write it!! I think it's going to be great!!
Thank You Robyn for the confidence.
I have a free email weight loss challenge and I was encouraged to write an ebook which is pretty much the same as the email I send out daily. I did and I've been amazed at how many people get the book as well as the free emails even though they are the same. I don't really know why that surprises me as I love ebooks. I'm pleased to say I've got 5 on my list now and more to come.
Wendy, I am following you on this weight loss challenge. And for me who wasn't a book lover and a numbers person. I am really getting into it. My eBook might take a little longer than others but its my challenge to complete.
eBooks are great and easy to put together if you blog in a series also. Thanks for you insight.
You're an amazing wealth of information Sandy … thank you for sharing the nuts and bolts of the process of creating an eBook! I know this will inspire a lot of people to start creating their own!
Thanks Erica, This is the starting point. More to come.
Wow, awesome post Sandy just the info I needed. Thanks so much for sharing.
Sure Kerry, If you need more help just ask. It has been a fun experience.
You're right Shaun. It doesn't take much if you just keep blogging, then put it all together.
Thanks, that sounds awesome. I wrote it in stages so if you need more Check out the series I have on eBook for more helpful ideas. Click here.

When a life insurance policy is purchased, most people put it away for safekeeping and forget about it. After all, now that you purchased that brand new term or permanent policy, you're covered so what's the point of thinking about that policy after purchasing it? You may not understand the importance of an annual life insurance policy review.
Why is it important to review your policy annually? In many cases, most of the life insurance policies that Top Quote Life Insurance reviews, we are able to help the policy owner either save more money or find more coverage for the same amount of money or less.
Saving money is always a great thing, but more importantly, a life insurance policy review can make sure that your life insurance coverage keeps up with life-changing events.
Life constantly changes and sometimes it changes so rapidly that we forget about making sure that our financial goals for our family are taken care of in the event of unexpected passing of a loved one.
Top Quote Life Insurance recommends reviewing your life insurance coverage at least once a year. As life changes it's best to make sure your life insurance coverage fits your family's financial goals and future plans.
Below is a list of common life-changing events that should immediately trigger the need for a life insurance policy review. Catching some of these life-changing events early enough can result in saving money on your life insurance coverage but most importantly make sure you have the correct amount of life insurance coverage.
The purchase of a home is a big financial change, as well as a key reason to have life insurance coverage. A life insurance policy review will make sure there is enough death benefit coverage for your family to continue the payments, on your home or even a complete payoff of the mortgage for the new home.
Have you had a baby or adopted a child since the purchase of your life insurance coverage? The cost to raise a child can be very expensive. A life insurance policy review can help adjust your coverage to provide the income needed to raise your child.
An improvement in your health that originally prevented you from receiving a preferred (good) health classification can result in lower life insurance rates. Two common improvements could be as simple as lower cholesterol or blood pressure. A life insurance policy review will allow us to review any changes in your health that may qualify you for cheaper life insurance coverage.
A decline in your health is a serious matter that should be addressed right away and not at the end of your term life insurance policy. There is a good chance that your term life insurance policy has a feature called a "guaranteed conversion option".
A conversion option allows you to convert your term life insurance policy to permanent coverage that is guaranteed regardless of your health. A life insurance policy review will help determine if converting your life insurance coverage should be done, based on the changes of your health.
Height and weight is an additional determining factor in what health classification your life insurance coverage will be approved at. If you have lost weight since the purchase of your life insurance policy, you may qualify for lower life insurance rates. A life insurance policy review will allow us to review any changes in your weight qualifying you for lower life insurance rates.
The life insurance rates between a non-smoker and smoker are significant. A life insurance policy review will prevent you from missing out on big saving if you have quit smoking for at least 2 years.
When purchasing a business or starting a new business, there are many reasons to make sure you have adequate life insurance coverage. A life insurance policy review can ensure you have the correct type of life insurance coverage such as key-man or buy-sell insurance if partners are involved.
Are you now responsible for the care for an elderly parent? A life insurance policy review can help you adjust your death benefit to provide funds for the continued care of your elderly parent.
An under-performing universal life insurance policy can be a nightmare especially if it's not caught right away. Older universal life insurance policies that were purchased when interest rates were high may not perform as expected later in life.
A life insurance policy review can provide insight into how long your life insurance coverage will last before you experience a big change in your premium in order to keep coverage going.
Taking a loan on your permanent life insurance policy is a great option to have if you need money quick. Did you know that when taking a loan from your life insurance policy you are required to pay interest on the loan amount?
Unpaid loan interest can have a severely negative impact on how your life insurance coverage will continue to perform. The unpaid loan interest will begin to diminish the cash value, ultimately leaving you with either a very expensive premium or a lapsed life insurance policy.
A life insurance policy review can help provide an outlook on how your coverage will continue to perform, as well as provide alternative coverage options if you are unable to pay back the loan.
Career changes or job promotions often come with changes in employee benefits. A life insurance policy review can help uncover any gaps in life insurance coverage due to career changes.
Have you recently retired or getting ready to retire from your job? If so, congratulations! Retiring from your place of employment is a great reason to take a look at your overall life insurance coverage needs.
What benefits will your place of employment provide you after you have retired? Do you still require the same amount of life insurance coverage as you may have had during your working years?
A life insurance policy review will allow us to review your overall life insurance needs and make any changes to the overall death benefit or even type of overage.
Life insurance coverage is only getting better as time goes on. A life insurance policy review can let you know about new policy features associated with the different types of life insurance coverage.
Did you know that there is a type of term life insurance coverage called "living benefits"?
Living benefits term life insurance allows you to access cash tax-free from the death benefit if you become ill with a chronic, critical or terminal illness?
If it's been over a year or more since you have had a life insurance policy review, then give us a call (888) 777-7574 or send us a message below and we'll be happy to review your life insurance policy with you. You can't afford to miss out on savings or protecting your family's financial future.

Electrical Code Updates
Electrical hazards result in thousands of residential and commercial accidents each year. 30,000 home fires, 200 deaths, nearly 1,000 injuries, and over $600 million in property damage are associated with electric wiring, according to the National Fire Protection Association, and according to the Electrical Safety Foundation International, account for 20 percent of electrocutions. Failure of a home to be up to the current electrical code is often to blame.
What are electrical code updates?
First published in 1897, the National Electric Code (NEC) is the nation's singular code for safe electrical installation. Prepared under the direction of the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), the NEC sets electrical code standards for safe electrical design, installation, and inspection to protect people and property from electrical hazards.
Updates are made to the NEC's electrical code and updated every three years to safeguard people and buildings by minimizing accidents and fire hazards resulting from the use of electricity. The 2014 NEC is the most current edition.
Why is it important to become informed about electrical code updates?
Did you know that requirements for GFCI protection, which stops the flow of electrical current and prevents circuit breakers from tripping during a detected imbalance, have reduced the number of electrical shock incidents as GFCI requirements have been expanded over the years? Being uninformed on electrical code updates such as this creates a needless risk, endangering lives and property.
The professionals at Mr. Electric® are well-versed on electrical code:
Because of the intricacies and often extensive changes to NEC electrical code every three years, it is important to have a professional check your home for outdated wiring as new electrical code updates are released. You can trust the professionals at Mr. Electric to be thoroughly knowledgeable about the latest in electrical code updates, allowing them to:
Check that your home is up to the latest requirements for electrical wiring and equipment, installation, and more.
Inspect a home prior to purchase ensuring both a sound investment and the safety of your family.
Prevent the postponement or delay of the sale of your home due to electrical issues discovered during inspection.
Protect you from injury, loss of life, and possible liability issues arising from electrical incidents in your home.
Current electrical code updates for 2014 include:
GFCI protection for laundry areas
GFCI protection is now required for all 125-volt, single-phase, 15- and 20-ampere receptacles installed in a laundry room, whether or not a sink is present.
GFCI protection for kitchen dishwashers
There is an increased risk of electrical shock as today's dishwashers age. As a result, a new provision requires GFCI protection for all dishwashers, whether they include a receptacle outlet or are hardwired in.
AFCI protection for kitchen and laundry areas
AFCI circuit breakers prevent fires by detecting unintended electrical arcs and disconnecting power before those arcs result in fire. The list of areas required to provide AFCI protection has been expanded to include kitchen and laundry areas. It includes all 120-volt, single-phase, 15- and 20-ampere branch circuits supplying not just outlets but also devices that are installed in rooms requiring AFCI protection.
Dedicated circuits for the charging of electric vehicles
New provisions have been added requiring a dedicated, separate branch circuit serving no other outlets for charging electric vehicles to prevent the overloading of circuits. In addition, a receptacle should be installed for each space of a multi-car garage.
Extra-duty covers at wet locations
All 15- and 20-ampere, 125- and 250-volt receptacles installed in a wet location – including temporary installations - must have an enclosure and covers that are weatherproof whether an attachment plug cap is inserted or not.
And hundreds of other changes furthering electrical safety…
Contact Mr. Electric for an electrical safety check up today. In partnership with the Electrical Safety Foundation International, Mr. Electric can ensure the safety of your home and family with the most up to date electrical code and safety information available.


SOUTHLAND – (INT) – Sales of new and existing homes throughout Southern California and the Inland Empire appear to be entering a new phase.
Sales have fallen for five consecutive months although prices have peaked in some areas and are beginning to decline.
The Inland Empire posted the fastest gain in prices during 2018 among Southern California's six counties studied by CoreLogic. Riverside County buyers paid out 4.1% more than a year earlier for an average of $380,000. San Bernardino County buyers signed for an average of just under $330,000, the lowest in Southern California.
Across the Southland, December sales were the lowest for that month since 2007, the onset of the housing downturn.
"Some would-be buyers remain priced out or unwilling to buy amid concerns that prices have overshot a sustainable level," CoreLogic analyst Andrew LePage said.
