This course is a study of Imam Nawawi's famous hadith compilation Riyadh al-Salihin. The focus of the course is to give students exposure to a corpus of narrations essential for their spiritual development and pertinent to their daily lives. The course will focus on detailed study of selected chapters where students will be expected to memorise, translate, linguistically analyse the narrations studied. Emphasis will be placed on contextualising the narrations, attempting to synthesise and apply the narrations to our daily lives. There will also be a word by word study of each narration ensuring that each and every narration is understood properly (dirayah).
Along with the study of the hadith, the sciences related to hadith will also be covered. The idea is to give students an introductory understanding of how hadith operates.
Brief description This course is a study of Imam Nawawi's famous hadith compilation Riyadh al-Salihin. The focus of the course is to give students exposure to a corpus of narrations essential for their spiritual development and pertinent to their daily lives. The course will focus on detailed study of selected chapters where students will be expected to memorise, translate, linguistically analyse the narrations studied. Emphasis will be placed on contextualising the narrations, attempting to synthesise and apply the narrations to our daily lives. There will also be a word by word study of each narration ensuring that each and every narration is understood properly (dirayah).
Students must complete the Arabic Intensive programme or its equivalent, or demonstrate equivalent knowledge and skills.
Students should be able to understand the lessons being taught in the medium of Arabic.
Having a good understanding and comprehension of the Arabic language is required for this course. Exposure to any hadith literature is highly recommended.
This will be the second hadith text to be taught. Unlike the first text zad al-talibeen the narrations in Riyadh al-Salihin are laid out according to relevant chapter heading pertaining to everyday Muslim life as opposed to be laid out according to Arabic language structures. Hence the focus here is not only to give exposure to hadith literature styles but rather to nurture the prophetic lifestyle in students. The narrations in Riyadh al-Salihin cover a wide array of styles of narrations sometimes including extremely long narrations where only one line directly correlates to the chapter heading. This in turn provides students with the context to many narrations and also enables one to understand how different lessons can be derived from one single narration.
- Historical context in which the text and the relevance of this particular text in relation to the larger texts of hadith available.
- Brief biography of the author and the purpose behind his compilation.
- Understand the thought process and methodology of Imam al-Nawawi.
o Understanding sincerity and its true application in different contexts.
o Comprehending what رياء means.
- The chapter of repentance (باب التوبة).
- The chapter of patience (باب الصبر).
- The chapter of watchfulness (باب المراقبة).
- The chapter of piety (باب التقوى).
- The chapter of firm belief and reliance (باب اليقين والتوكل).
- The chapter of steadfastness (باب الاستقامة).
- The chapter of striving (باب المجاهدة).
- The chapter of moderation in worship (باب في الاقتصاد في العبادة).
Selective chapters related to Ramadhan.

Is MetLife under- or over-valued?
Valuing MetLife stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of MetLife's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
MetLife's P/E ratio
MetLife's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 11x. In other words, MetLife shares trade at around 11x recent earnings.
That's relatively low compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the NASDAQ 100 at the end of 2019 (27.29). The low P/E ratio could mean that investors are pessimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're under-valued.
MetLife's PEG ratio
MetLife's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 1.8365. A low ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer better value, while a higher ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer worse value.
The PEG ratio provides a broader view than just the P/E ratio, as it gives more insight into MetLife's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
MetLife's EBITDA
MetLife's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is US$8.3 billion (£6.1 billion).
The EBITDA is a measure of a MetLife's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.
MetLife financials
MetLife's environmental, social and governance track record
Environmental, social and governance (known as ESG) criteria are a set of three factors used to measure the sustainability and social impact of companies like MetLife.
MetLife's total ESG risk score
Socially conscious investors use ESG scores to screen how an investment aligns with their worldview, and MetLife's overall score of 18.05 (as at 12/31/2018) is excellent – landing it in it in the 17th percentile of companies rated in the same sector.
ESG scores are increasingly used to estimate the level of risk a company like MetLife is exposed to within the areas of "environmental" (carbon footprint, resource use etc.), "social" (health and safety, human rights etc.), and "governance" (anti-corruption, tax transparency etc.).
MetLife's environmental score
MetLife's environmental score of 0.62 puts it squarely in the 2nd percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that MetLife is a leader in its sector terms of its environmental impact, and exposed to a lower level of risk.
MetLife's social score
Social score: 7.35/100
MetLife's social score of 7.35 puts it squarely in the 2nd percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that MetLife is a leader in its sector when it comes to taking good care of its workforce and the communities it impacts.
MetLife's governance score
Governance score: 9.83/100
MetLife's governance score puts it squarely in the 2nd percentile of companies rated in the same sector. That could suggest that MetLife is a leader in its sector when it comes to responsible management and strategy, and exposed to a lower level of risk.
MetLife's controversy score
ESG scores also evaluate any incidences of controversy that a company has been involved in. MetLife scored a 2 out of 5 for controversy – the second-highest score possible, reflecting that MetLife has, for the most part, managed to keep its nose clean.
MetLife Inc was last rated for ESG on: 2019-01-01.
MetLife share dividends
Recently MetLife has paid out, on average, around 21.52% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 2.83% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), MetLife shareholders could enjoy a 2.83% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In MetLife's case, that would currently equate to about $1.88 per share.
While MetLife's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that MetLife is investing more in its future growth.
MetLife's most recent dividend payout was on 13 December 2021. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 6 February 2022 (the "ex-dividend date").
Have MetLife's shares ever split?
MetLife's shares were split on a 1122:1000 basis on 6 August 2017. So if you had owned 1000 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1122 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your MetLife shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 10.9% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for MetLife shares which in turn could have impacted MetLife's share price.
MetLife share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, MetLife's shares have ranged in value from as little as US$46.1881 up to US$68.58. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
MET.US volatility(beta: 1.27)Avg. volatility(beta: 1.00)LowHigh
Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NYSE average) beta is 1, while MetLife's is 1.2666. This would suggest that MetLife's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).

The burn-up chart is the "little brother" of the better-known burn-down chart. We all know how to read a burn-down chart. But it can be extremely valuable to learn the slightly-more-complicated burn-up chart, as it can help you expose scope creeps in your project, see your actual progress, and communicate it easily to stakeholders.
A burn-up chart is a tool used in Scrum projects. It is a visual representation of a team's work process. It displays the scope of a project and the work completed. Using a burn-up chart, a team can easily track their progress as they work towards completion of a sprint. A burn-up chart provides information in a straightforward and user-friendly way.
The chart's horizontal axis represents time (usually measured in days) while the vertical axis represents the amount of work (usually measured in story points or hours).
What Do the Three Lines in the Burn-Up Chart Mean?
The burn-up chart is updated at the end of each unit of time. Once updated, the chart shows the team's actual progress. The team effort line climbs from the bottom up towards the total effort line. When the two lines meet, the team's goal is met.
A team can see how much work remains on their project, by watching the distance between the team effort line and the total effort line. The chart makes it simple to track, modify and ideally improve a team's work process.
A burn-down chart shows the amount of work remaining on a project (the remaining effort), whereas a burn-up chart shows how much work has been completed and the total scope of the project. In a burn-down chart, the line goes from top to bottom as a team makes progress, while in a burn-up chart the line climbs from the bottom upwards. Both charts use the same axies.
While both charts are relatively simple to follow, a burn-down chart may be easier to understand because it only displays only one line (or two, adding the ideal development velocity). A burn-up chart, however, provides more details, showing both total work achieved and work done in the previous increments.
In a burn-down chart, these changes to scope will be invisible and it will appear the team is getting less done. In a burn-up chart, you can clearly see the scope increase and the actual progress by the team.
Scope creep is a well know anti-pattern in agile development teams—it happens when more work is added during a sprint, which can disrupt agile estimations and processes.
When scope creep occurs, a burn-down chart will give the impression that the project is progressing as usual. However, on a burn-up chart, a dramatic increase in the scope of a project is clearly visible. A product owner or customer can reduce the work, or alternatively a team can adjust their sprint and release plan. Moreover, when a team makes changes to the budget or scope of a project, these changes are seen at the top of the chart.
For example, if you follow the red line on this burn-down chart it seems like the team did not complete any work between the 5th and 6th sprints.
But in a burn-up chart, the changes made to the scope of the work are clearly visible. It is also easy to see that the team did get work done in the 5th and 6th sprints. In fact, they exceeded their original velocity estimations.
Having a total effort or milestone line can also help a team communicate more effectively with stakeholders and clients. A team can use the burn-up chart to display the effect each scope change has on the entire project. A product owner or client can also be regularly updated about the true progress being made by the team.
There are many tools a team can use to generate a burn-up chart. One of them is Microsoft Excel. Because the burn-up line indicates work already done, a team needs to have started working before they can begin creating the chart.
Our instructions on how to create a the chart in Excel are based on the excellent post by Rob Frohman.
To generate a burn-up chart using Excel, create a spreadsheet with columns indicating time units and work completed. After several iterations have passed, the team's velocity can be calculated to estimate completion time.
Using this data, you can generate a plot indicating work you have completed.
Next, calculate the average work pace of previous sprints (usually the last three). Now add a Forecast Completed column, start it in the current period, and add a forecasted amount of work completed in each future period. Do this simply by adding the average work pace for every period. In the image below the team is expected to complete 22 story points per sprint.
Now you can plot the new column, creating a release burn-up chart. The image below shows another twist—adding a standard deviation calculation to show a "high forecast" and "low forecast" and create a safety margin for your estimates.
Burn-up charts help you visualize how fast your development is moving, and what's getting in the way. An important thing burn-up charts cannot visualize is technical debt. Consider the additional dimension of technical debt; in particular, quality problems that may be present in the product and are not fully addressed during the sprint. This is also a type of scope creep, but one that doesn't come from product owners—it originates from you, the development team.
Can we create a chart that visualizes our investment in quality, instead of one that only shows progress in building features?
A new category of tools called Quality Intelligence platforms can do just that. They provide a visualization of Test Gaps—features which have recently undergone change or are actively used in production but are not tested comprehensively (or at all). Test gaps are like stories, only in reverse—a test gap is a negative story you need to eliminate in your product.
SeaLights is a quality intelligence platform that helps you visualize Test Gaps and perform focused maintenance work to eliminate them. You can use this data to add focused maintenance work to your sprints. By plotting the total amount of unresolved maintenance work, and the Test Gaps eliminated in the last iteration, you can show a burn-up chart showing quality, not just number of new story points, representing your confidence in the quality of your product.

The popular compound and once commonly used decongestant 1,3-dimethylamylamine, or DMAA, was a fitness industry favorite appearing in supplements such as the original JACK3D and Mesomorph until it was very controversially removed from the market by the encouragement of the FDA. The lack of sound evidence for any negative effects when taken within a safe dose was what made the pulling of the compound controversial. However, the end of the DMAA era brought upon the new compound we have talked about before, DMHA or 2-Aminoisoheptane. If you are not familiarly with this compound go back and read our DMHA blog. It is important to know that we will be referencing the more advanced form of DMHA we use in our HURRICANE, 2-Amino-5-Mehtylheptane, to compare to DMAA. The similar effects of DMHA to DMAA comes from the similarity in the structures of both compounds, as both compounds are monoamines (have 1 NH2 group) and only vary slightly.
Both these monoamines, DMAA and DMHA, act as reuptake inhibitors for the catecholamines. Reuptake occurs in the synapse of your neurons, when neurotransmitters are absorbed by the plasma membrane of an axon terminal after a neural impulse has been conducted. So if some of the reuptake is inhibited by these compounds binding to and blocking the function of each specific Catecholamine Active Transporter,the concentration of the neurotransmitters outside of your cells are increased. This generates the enhanced effects each catecholamine is responsible for; focus, energy, bronchodilation, etc. However, the structure of each compound is what causes the differences in effectiveness, as DMHA is said to be about 70-80% the strength of DMAA.
DMAA is an extremely effective stimulant whose structure we'll compare to a commonly known compound, amphetamine (adderall). Notice both the structures have the suffix "amine" in their name, indicating the presence of a NH2 group which classifies it as a monoamine and allows for the inhibition of reuptake processes mentioned above to be carried out when present. The only difference between the two structures is the fact that amphetamine contains a benzene ring and methyl group(CH3-black arrows) while DMAA only contains methyl groups. While the methyl group functions well in blocking enzymes (in this case mainly monoamine oxidase(MAO))from breaking them down, the bulky benzene ring functions even more effectively. DMAA contains two methyl groups located directly next to the NH2 group on either side, very effectively blocking MOA and increasing potency. As we said though, even though DMAA contains two methyl groups and amphetamine only contains 1, the presence of the benzene ring causes amphetamine to more effectively block the MAO causing increased effects. The most potent monoamine as a stimulant, methamphetamine, contains the same double methyl-group as DMAA, and also with the benzene ring of amphetamine.The presence of the benzene ring also increases the passing of the compound through the blood-brain-barrier, which is important for working on neurotransmitter pathways.
So, How Does DMHA Compare?

You take your bag into the bathroom. Almost instantly, the boys figure
out what you're doing, and start jeering.

"Oooh, new kid is shyyyy," wails Josh, in the sing-song tone reserved
only for the most devastating taunts.

You shut the bathroom door quickly and change as fast as you can.
Your ears burn hot. By the time you force yourself to come out of the
bathroom, everyone seems to have moved on, and no one cares.

They all file out onto the field. You're confused and humiliated. Your
pants are on.

Success! :100:

---

It's a slow game. You stand around in left field, and once catch a
pop fly. Your team wins, but it doesn't feel like a big deal. You go
straight back to your cabin to shower instead of braving the locker room
again, and decide not to go back.

The next day you take the nature hike. You remember from last year that
the hike was mostly full of neo-hippies and kids who didn't know what
else to do. Perfect.

You walk out to the starting spot in the meadow near the trees. You see
a few groups of kids milling around. You walk towards the cluster who
seems most likely to know what hemp is. You talk to a lanky white kid
with blond dreads.

"Hey, is this the group for the nature hike?" You ask.

"Sure thing, brother. You've come to the right place." He laughs from
the chest, like something really funny happened. Did you miss something?

"Cool. I'm Manny, by the way." You extend your hand.

He holds your hand lightly with both of his, nods, then releases.

"What's your name?" You ask.

"Sun Child."

"Oh. Cool."

"Werd, werd, werd."

His grin stays fixed in place. You're now convinced he's completely
genuine, and that doesn't comfort you. You both nod and wait for the
hike to start.

Other kids gather. Jerry, the most enthusiastic counselor at camp, leads
the hike.

"Alright, guys, let's conquer this mountain!" Jerry screams.

Alton, a known pervert, nudges you.

"That's what _she_ said."

He was one of the kids who didn't know what else to do.

You zone out as the group winds along the trail, letting your mind
wander amidst the bird song and smell of mulching leaves. The trail's
incline is getting steeper. You reach a rocky section that seems to go
straight up.

"Everyone get in single file, and go slowly," Jerry warns. "If the dirt
slips out from under you, just drop into cat stance like we practiced,
okay?"

Cat stance? You don't remember anything about a cat stance. This was practiced?

You nudge Alton. "Hey, what's cat stance?"

"It's how I fuck your mom," he says triumphantly, extending his hand for
a high-five.

"I'm not high-fiving that, jackass" you inform him.

Alton pushes past you.

"Race ya!"

You try to get ahead of him, but trying to shove on a steep hill proves
too much; the dirt slips from under you.

You flail as you slide back, on the edge of wiping out.

"Cat stance! Cat stance!" You hear screamed at you from all directions.

Your speed increases. Your body tilts back. You twist around and time stops:

She's very short, curvy, with toffee skin, ice-blue eyes, short hair
dyed purple, a silver nose ring and kind dimples. You're in love. You
know you're meant for each other. You can see how this moment will be a
romantic story to tell your grandkids someday.

She's perfect. She's right in your path. You flail.

Do you…

Aggies versus Aggies
They're both maroon and white. Both teams were originally the Aggies. One school brings cowbells to games while the other has the tradition of wearing overalls. Even their original names are oddly familiar – The Agricultural and Mechanical College of Texas and The Agricultural and Mechanical College of the State of Mississippi.
Of course, if you haven't figured out by now, I'm talking about Texas A&M and Mississippi State who will be meeting for the ninth time in the series' history this weekend. Tied at 4-4, the series has seen about as many different results as you can imagine. From three straight shutouts (Two for Mississippi State as they won 6-0 in 1913 and 7-0 in 1915 with one for Texas A&M as they won 14-0 in 1937) to total blowouts to the iconic Snow Bowl where a freak snowstorm hit Shreveport, Louisiana the night before the Aggies and Bulldogs faced off in the 2000 Independence Bowl.
However, for this article we will look back to the series beginning – 1912. November 16, 1912 to be exact. Played at a neutral site in Houston, Texas, this matchup featured the Aggies taking on the Aggies (Mississippi State was known as the Aggies until 1932 when they became the Maroons. It wasn't until 1961 that the team officially became the Bulldogs, however, the school's records show the team being referred to as the Bulldogs unofficially all the way back to 1905.)
Left: Joe Utay, Texas A&M player and future coach Right: Charley Moran, Texas A&M head coach 1909-1914
Due to lack of regulations at the time, it wasn't unusual for a school to be a member of multiple athletic conferences at once. Even more common was for a team to be a member of a conference while playing only a few opponents from that conference. The 1912 Texas A&M-Miss State matchup had a little of this flavoring added to it.
With the Southwest Conference still a few years away, Texas A&M (the University of Texas also held membership for a time) had joined the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association (SIAA). The SIAA is largely considered the forerunner to the modern day SEC, but due to what can only be called an extensive and often bizarre membership, the SIAA would ultimately fold.
In a time period when there were only four conferences (the SIAA; the Big 9 forerunner to the Big 10; the Missouri Valley Conference forerunner to the Big 8 and in part the Big 12; and South Atlantic Intercollegiate Athletic Association forerunner to the ACC) the SIAA had by far the biggest membership, both in total number and geographic footprint.
On its own, the SIAA almost equaled the total numbers of schools in the other three conferences combined with 20 members. Spanning eight states (nine if you include Texas, but we'll get to that more in a minute) the conference covered the entirety of the Deep South. The size of the conference would be unwieldy, if not impossible, in today's world much less in the early 1900s. The most conference games any one school played was eight (that feat was accomplished by Georgia Tech, who certainly was one of the most centrally located schools in the conference, finishing with a 5-3 conference record).
Texas A&M was nominally a member of the SIAA in 1912 but they only played two conference games, Tulane and Mississippi State. The only school to play fewer conference opponents was Kentucky State (now Kentucky). Due to this low number of SIAA opponents, some consider A&M an independent at the time while others still count the Aggies as an SIAA member.
So it was that on that November day, Mississippi State came to Houston to face conference opponent (or at least quasi-conference opponent) Texas A&M. The Aggies of Texas were led by Charley Moran and undefeated at 5-0. Mississippi State was 4-2 entering the contest having lost to Auburn 0-7 and Tulane 24-27. However, the Aggies of Mississippi were a dangerous team and had knocked off Alabama 7-0 and LSU in Baton Rouge by a score of 7-0.
The Aggies would have to play the game somewhat conservatively as they were entering the Mississippi State game as the beginning of a 12 day stretch that saw TAMU play four games (November 16 – Mississippi State, November 19 – Tulane, November 20 – Kansas State and November 28 – Baylor). It turned out Texas A&M shouldn't have been worried at all. The final score was 41-7 TAMU, the largest victory for A&M in the series' history.
1912 TAMU Book of Yells. A&M's tradition of Yell Leaders began in 1907.
Now undefeated at 6-0, the Aggies finished of their brutal schedule. Three days later, Texas A&M would dismantle Tulane 41-0, but in a one-day turnaround, the Aggies would fall 10-13 to Kansas State. Perhaps angered by their lone blemish on the season, A&M thundered past Baylor in their season finale 53-0.
The Aggies finished the1912 season 8-1 while outscoring opponents 366-26. Their season point differential ranked among the best in the entire country, as fellow SIAA member Vanderbilt finished with the best differential, outscoring opponents 393-19. The Commodores would also be crowned the SIAA champion as they finished 8-1-1, but had a better conference record at 4-0-1 compared to the Aggies' 2-0 record.
While the power of college football was viewed as the east coast with schools, such as, Harvard (the 1912 National Champion), Princeton and Yale topping the charts; the success of schools like Texas A&M and Vanderbilt were a telling sign of the coming geographical shift in college football. 1912 had another team that would help shift focus off the traditional powers – Carlisle. The Carlisle Indians led by Pop Warner and Jim Thorpe went 12-1-1 on the season and had the country's highest scoring total with 454 points. The Indians even beat teams like Brown (32-0), Army (27-6) and Pitt (45-8).
Fast forwarding 100 years, over 100,000 people will be in College Station to watch old conference foes face off again as new conference foes. With both teams ranked, the game promises to be a fun one. The 12th Man will be hoping to rekindle some of that 1912 magic and dominate the Bulldogs, stay undefeated and take another step towards a conference crown.

Q: TypeError: bad operand type for unary -: 'list' python I Keep getting this error, It's so simple and error is about (-x) in function but I don't know how I can fix it.
Please help me.
This is my code:
import numpy as np
x = list(np.arange(0, 1, 0.1))
print (x)
def f(x):
    f = np.exp(-x)
    return f

y =f(x)

print (y)

A: Broadcasting isn't supported for vanilla Python lists. You should use list() after the operation involving broadcasting, like so:
import numpy as np
x = np.arange(0, 1, 0.1)
print(x)
def f(x):
    f = np.exp(-x)
    return f

y = list(f(x))
print(y)

A: First of all, please use different names
import numpy as np
x = list(np.arange(0, 1, 0.1))
print (x)
def func(param):
    retval = np.exp(-param)
    return retval

y = func(x)

print (y)

for start.
Then, you make a list from the np.arange, python lists don't support the unary operation - (minus) as you are using in the function (i.e. f = np.exp(-x))
numpy arrays on the other hand do support it.
what you can do is not convert it to python list, or only convert it to a python list later in the process (after using the minus)

Montana wildlife reserve to offer bison hunts on the prairie
BILLINGS — A conservation group attempting to piece together the largest private wildlife reserve in the United States says it will allow eight hunters a chance to kill bison on the grasslands of north-central Montana.
American Prairie Reserve spokeswoman Becky Lonardo said Tuesday its bison herd has almost 900 animals. Also known as buffalo, they roam on portions of 623 square miles that the group controls along the Missouri River.
The reserve for the first time next year will offer bison hunts to four people from surrounding communities, two hunts to be auctioned online and two to be given to other organizations.
Since 2001, American Prairie has raised more than $100 million with a goal of creating a nearly 5,500 square-mile reserve — an area larger than Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks combined.

New charges for pirate negotiator
M/V MARIDA MARGUERITE. MarineTraffic.com via EUNAVFOR
NORFOLK, Va.—A man accused of negotiating on behalf of Somali pirates in the deadly hijacking of a U.S. yacht has been indicted on charges he successfully negotiated the ransom for a German tanker and its 22 crewmembers, the government said Thursday.
The accused, Mohammad Saali Shibin, is the biggest catch in the U.S. prosecution of pirates plaguing shipping lanes off the coast of Africa, U.S. Attorney Neil H. MacBride said outside the federal courthouse in Norfolk.
"Mr. Shibin is alleged to be among the select few who are entrusted with one of the most important tasks in Somali piracy—ensuring a ship's owners pay the maximum amount of ransom possible for the release of a hijacked vessel," Mr. McBride said.
Mr. Shibin, already in U.S. custody for his alleged role in the deaths of four Americans on the yacht Quest earlier this year, is multilingual and is technologically savvy—skills needed to assess a ship's value and to serve as a go-between, Mr. McBride said.
The chemical tanker Marida Marguerite and its crew of 22 aboard was hijacked in May 2010 and held off the coast of Africa for seven months until a ransom believed to total millions was paid to the pirates. All 22 crewmembers survived.
Mr. Shibin was paid $30,000 to $50,000 for his alleged services, according to the indictment, which is dated Wednesday.
The superseding indictment, which includes previous charges related to the Quest hijacking, accuses him of piracy, hostage taking, violence against maritime navigation, conspiracy and firearms violations.
His arraignment is scheduled Wednesday. His attorney didn't immediately return a telephone message left by the Associated Press.

New $3 Million Dollar Affordable Housing Project Opens in Winkler
WINKLER, Manitoba, September 13, 2007 — Manitobans in the Winkler area now have access to a new affordable housing complex, as a result of close to $2 million in federal and provincial funding under the Canada – Manitoba Affordable Housing Initiative (AHI).
Brian Pallister, Member of Parliament for Portage – Lisgar, on behalf of the Honorable Monte Solberg, Minister of Human Resources and Social Development, Doug Martindale, MLA for Burrows, on behalf of the Honorable Gord Mackintosh, Manitoba Minister of Family Services and Housing, and Martin Harder, Mayor of the City of Winkler, presided over the grand opening ceremony.
"Canada's New Government is committed to making affordable housing available in Manitoba and across Canada for those who need it most, " said MP Pallister. "The creation of these new units will allow lower income families and persons with disabilities in Winkler to live in safe, quality housing at an affordable cost and start a new page in their lives."
"By working together we can develop affordable, safe and accessible housing for Manitobans," said Martindale. "We are committed to continuing a comprehensive housing plan through HomeWorks! one of the four pillars in our housing strategy."
Winkler Affordable Housing Inc. initiated the project, located at Southgate Drive. The City of Winkler supported the project by contributing land valued at over $200,000, and the balance of funding will come from Winkler Affordable Housing Inc. The total cost of this project is estimated at more than $3.1 million.
The new, bi-level style, row-housing complex features 24 units of affordable housing for low- to moderate income families. Twelve units will receive rent supplements and two units will be fully accessible for persons with mobility disabilities. Rents for the new apartments are considered affordable as they will be at median market rent levels for rural Manitoba.
"The City of Winkler is proud to be able to partner with Federal and Provincial funding to provide the much needed affordable housing in the City of Winkler", says Winkler City Mayor Martin Harder, "We are confident that the community of homes established will provide the tenants with long term comfortable accommodations. We believe that giving people a start and housing they can be proud of will enhance their lifestyle and encourage involvement in other areas of need in our community. Together we can build a better future for all."
"We know these three bedroom units have provided a very good start to affordable housing for the City of Winkler," says Ken J. Wiebe, Chairman of the Winkler Affordable Housing Inc. "These 24 units have hardly placed a dent in our community for accommodations. There is a significant need for additional small units of 1 and 2 bedroom accommodations. This will truly provide a future for our community."
The governments of Canada and Manitoba have each contributed $36.9 million to the Affordable Housing Initiative in Manitoba, demonstrating a commitment to increasing the supply of affordable housing in Manitoba. Contributions from municipalities, the private and voluntary sectors, co-operatives and charities have significantly increased the size of this initiative in Manitoba.

Canada – Manitoba Affordable Housing Agreement
First Phase:
The governments of Canada and Manitoba signed the Affordable Housing Initiative in 2002. The first phase provided federal funding of $25.39 million with matching contributions of $25.39 million from the Province of Manitoba and community-based housing partners. This agreement provided funding for a new rental housing-supply program, a rehabilitation/conversion program, a new homebuyer down-payment program and a home ownership-supply program.
Second Phase:
The second phase increased the total current investment commitments by $23.08 million by 2010. This is equally shared by Canada and Manitoba for:
a new rental housing-supply program to increase the amount of new rental affordable housing for low-income renters;
a rehabilitation/conversion housing program to rehabilitate severely deteriorated properties into rental or ownership affordable housing for low-income households;
a homebuyer down-payment assistance program to help low-income renters become first-time homebuyers of new or recently renovated affordable housing developed under Affordable Housing programs and;
a new homeownership supply program to increase homeownership by encouraging construction of new housing in targeted urban revitalization and remote areas.
As well, federal assistance is increased to 50 per cent of capital costs to a maximum of $75,000 per unit. The units are expected to remain affordable and be occupied by low-income households for a minimum of 10 years. Phase II is targeted to people on or eligible to be on a social-housing waiting list.
Other Government of Canada Housing Support in Manitoba:
In 2005/2006, the Government of Canada spent approximately $123 million in Manitoba primarily in support of some 41,350 lower-income households across the province as part of the federal contribution to social housing programs.
Recently, it announced $256 million for the two-year extension of CMHC's renovation programs. For renovation programs, in Manitoba, about $5.8 million has been allocated for off-reserve delivery in 2007/08.
This will improve the quality of housing for some 38,000 low-income Canadians. These investments will provide concrete, meaningful and lasting results for Canadians who need safe and adequate housing.
This includes funds for renovations under the Residential Rehabilitation Assistance Program (RRAP), Home Adaptations for Seniors' Independence (HASI), Emergency Repair Program (ERP) and the Shelter Enhancement Program (SEP).
The 2006 Federal Budget contains a one-time investment of $1.4 billion towards helping Canadians find safe, adequate and affordable housing in all provinces and territories.
The funding will be made available through a flexible approach involving third party trusts:
An Affordable Housing Trust, in the amount of $800 million over three years, to help address short-term pressures with regard to the supply of affordable housing;
An Off-Reserve Aboriginal Housing Trust, in the amount of $300 million over three years, to help provinces address housing needs for Aboriginal Canadians living off-reserve; and,
A Northern Housing Trust, in the amount of $300 million over three years, to help territories address short-term pressures with regard to affordable housing to the North.
Manitoba's share of the funding is $61.50 million from the first two trusts.
Other Government of Manitoba Housing Support Programs:
The Government of Manitoba offers programs to help lower-income households maintain, buy or rent safe, adequate and affordable housing. The province provides annual grants and subsidies through the Manitoba Housing and Renewal Corporation for non-profit and co-operative housing organizations to help develop project proposals for affordable housing for seniors, persons with disabilities and persons with low incomes. It supports the provision of private-sector financing for affordable housing projects developed and delivered by non-profit organizations and also provides grants and loans for home repairs.
The Affordable Housing Initiative complements existing renovation and repair programs including the Residential Rehabilitation Assistance Program (RRAP). Manitoba cost-shares RRAP, the Home Adaptations for Seniors' Independence Program, the Emergency Repair Program and the Shelter Enhancement Program with the federal government. The Manitoba government delivers the federal/provincial cost-shared programs as well as the provincially funded Homeowner Emergency Loan Program.

After a not-so-subtle nudge from the Saturday Master Gardener Training Class, the crew at the Demonstration Garden has decided to open the garden for work on some Saturdays. The first two Saturday workdays will be April 18th, and May 9th. More Saturdays will be announced soon, but we need to line up "garden gurus" - folks willing to lead the garden work for the day - and to make sure there are enough veterans available to help new volunteers learn their way around.
Last year we ran several Saturday workdays, but got very few workers to join us. Some of the crew are a little dubious, but several of this year's trainees made the point that they had already attended a long series of full day Saturday classes, and for many of them, the weekend is the only time they have available to volunteer. OK! Let's make it work!
We'll be open from 9am until noon, April 18th and May 9th, with more Saturdays coming. Come out and join us! The garden is at 6801 se 60th Ave, across from the Brentwood Park. See you there!

Last week, Indian Matchmaking was the newest addition to the library of reality shows on Netflix. Whatever you think of the show, it will hook you in. Here are 7 other cringe-worthy reality shows on Netflix and Voot that you should watch. One of the biggest problems with Indian Matchmaking was the objectification of women. They only get to see what the other person looks like when they decide to — wait for it — get engaged to them. The show got so problematic because there were some men who were downright disrespectful Carlton on the show.
When it's this hot out, all you want to do is turn the AC up and go lie on the couch. But when something new and buzzy arrives, like Unsolved Mysteries or Love is Blind, we can't help but dive in fully—because who doesn't like shiny new things? And the latest and greatest on the streaming market is Netflix's Indian Matchmaking , which premieres July Here's the premise: Done with the horrifying downsides of dating apps and blind dates, young adults in the U.
They enlist the services of Sima Taparia, a matchmaker who specializes in arranged marriages. Sounds intriguing, right?
Actor Sunny Leone will host the upcoming seventh season of popular reality show Splitsvilla. Splitsvilla, aired on MTV India, is based on the American dating.
Log in for unlimited access. CARY, N. The new Netflix docuseries followed one of India's most sought-after matchmakers as she searches for perfect pairs among her potential prospects. Two years ago, Triangle resident Manisha Dass responded to a casting call on Instagram for singles looking for love. Dating apps, set up by friends, approached people in various social settings, and nothing manifested for me," Dass says. In April , the occupational therapist flew to Austin, Texas to meet her match, with her mother and cameras in tow.
She left feeling pretty hopeful but ultimately decided they were better off as friends. While Dass didn't find love, she discovered a lot about herself. I do want to get married still, but it's more important for me to meet the right person. So it's interesting," she says. Dass figured the show would attract a big South Asian audience but is blown away by the international attention it's gotten. She's heard from friends in Spain, London, the Middle East, and other corners of the world.
Marriage is still a priority, but she's not going to force it. I'm kind of letting it happen.
Sunny, 32, has decided to return to the small screen as the host of MTV Splitsvilla and will replace actress Sherlyn Chopra for the upcoming seventh season of the dating show, a source said. She will be hosting the show and will be seen on regular basis on the show. Every time we try something new for every season, we thought getting her Sunny was a good idea for the show," a source said.
The reality show revolves around young boys and girls trying to secure a place in Splitsvilla which is a Villa. It is a 'hunt for love' show where they compete in tasks to stay in the competition and mingle with contestants to find love.
Best dating apps in India: Tinder, Truly Madly, and more. MUMBAI IN. Then it uses the same site to show you profiles with similar interest. IN case you do not.
The year-old event planner from Morris County is not only one of the contestants on Netflix's reality dating show "Indian Matchmaking," but she is one of the favorites. The contestants who are given the resumes — or "bio data" — of several different potential partners suggested by Taparia, who they meet for the first time, often accompanied by their families. Like most of the contestants, Jagessar — whose bio data says she is from Denville, but lives in Morris Plains — has family members that are products of arranged marriages.
And so, she decided to give it a try. This seems appropriate today. Literally one of my favorite moments! I try to accept a few days a month will be different and keep it moving.
Amazon Prime Video is to bring original reality series Hear Me. Love Me. The format takes a single female looking for love and sets her up on three dates. The contestant will not leave her room the entire time and simply watch the daily lives of her potential dates via a camera, which they carry.
Now that the show is out, however, it has emerged that the couple is no longer engaged. The Roka may have been staged specifically for the.
According to the deep gang calculations, Ayaz and Yasir end up in the dumping zone with Mayank Gandhi, making the next episode slightly more interesting a watch. Since the last week's episode of Splitsvilla was about establishing that general knowledge and women are mostly mutually exclusive , this week was about trying to prove that men have some drawbacks too. The sixth episode of Splitsvilla 7 was probably designed to repose faith in things like love etc which might have gotten a little lost in fake eyelashes, bared biceps and the assault to intelligence that passes of as conversation between contestants.

It turns out the outspoken, and "stubborn," breakout star of Netflix's controversial new reality dating show 'Indian Matchmaking' is a romantic after all. She spoke with us recently by phone about dating and relationships. The hit show itself is about a matchmaker named Sima who helps arrange a marriage—a traditional form of courtship and matrimony in India—for clients all over the world.

The notion of teaching them to adjust is at the crux of her process, as she works with entire families to find the right partner for their would-be brides and grooms. In some ways, the show is a modern take on arranged marriage, with contemporary dating horrors like ghosting and lacking the skills for a meet-up at an ax-throwing bar. But issues of casteism, colorism and sexism, which have long accompanied the practice of arranged marriage in India and the diaspora, arise throughout, giving viewers insight into more problematic aspects of Indian culture.

Love Me. The show combines modern day technology with the rules of old world romance to uncover the perfect recipe for love. The format takes a single young woman looking for love and sets her up on 3 dates in a single day. Hosted by celebrated film actor and fitness guru, Shilpa Shetty Kundra, and produced by FremantleMedia India, the series provides a window into what contemporary India thinks of love, romance and dating. It is based on the premise of choosing a date, but with a big twist and in a never before seen format in India.
I think Shilpa is a great fit for this show and the audience will love the role she plays in this Prime Original. I am sure all of us have wondered if looks are everything when it comes to dating. Hear Me. The format of this unusual and edgy reality show revolves around dating through the heart. The show tries to uncover what each contestant values the most in their date!
Young women between 21 — 32 years of age, with different aspirations and from different walks of life, make an attempt to find love and companionship. The bachelors wear a mini camera on their chest sharing their lives, but never revealing their faces, thereby eliminating looks as a deciding factor. This format provides a sneak peek into the day of the life of the date.

By Melkorka Licea. July 21, pm Updated July 21, pm. Is the bloom off the rose … ceremony? After dropping on July 16, Twitter is already awash with hot takes and memes about the eight-episode saga led by Mumbai-based matchmaker Sima Taparia, known as Sima Auntie to her clients. Taparia — who travels between India and the US in search for the perfect matches for her picky patrons — seems to have her work cut out for her as she sets up six lovelorn singles with different romantic prospects.
And while matchmaking may seem like an outdated means to marriage, several of the potential matchees admit that dating apps and online courting are to blame for their relationship woes and are ready to take a more old-school approach to finding love. Taparia is a highly sought-after matchmaker throughout the world, especially well-known to many high-profile Marwari families, who are based in the northwestern region of India, according to her website.
When Taparia lands a client, she always begins her process by visiting their home, talking to relatives and asking them questions about their lives and partner preferences. The centuries-old South Asian tradition of arranged marriage is still widely practiced today in India, but refusing a partner is also accepted. Self-arranged marriages are also very common, which is where a couple who are already romantically involved go through an arranged marriage with that specific person.
Three new clients are then brought into the fold, including Ankita Bansal, a bold Delhi-based entrepreneur; Vyasar Ganesan, a laid-back guidance counselor from Austin, Texas; and Akshay Jakhete, an overly picky recently graduated student from Mumbai. While beloved by many, the show has also received its fair share of backlash already. Read Next. This story has been shared , times.
