Don't you hate a stuffy, musty smell of mildew in your home? Ugh! No matter how clean you are or how clean you keep your home it has happened to the best of us. Instead of risking your health by doing nothing (or purchasing chemicals that will totally destroy your health) try the following: 10 drops of tea tree oil/1 gallon or less of water, put in a spray bottle shake and spray. Works well in bathrooms or where ever mold and mildew tend to grow. Use it to combat mold and mildew or as a preventative measure. This method works great for me but, how about you? Any ideas of how to keep your home mold and mildew free? Please feel free to comment and share your own ideas. A woman's work is never done.
I just wanted to briefly explain the changes. Initially my Hebrew name was Amina (faithful, trustworthy) but because of my personality and history (of not really being grounded or feeling like I had a home) I took on the Hebrew name Zipporah (bird). I have recently decided to use both and change the title of my site to Seeking His Face Daily. Because my life is in Christ and I am in a constant state of seeking the Father's face so I felt that it was perfect. (I should have thought of that in the beginning). I am going into deep prayer about what direction I would like to go in with my platform however, I have had several ideas so far that I think you all will truly enjoy. I thank you so much for taking the time out to read my blog and also for taking this journey with me. May the Most High Bless and keep you in His holy hands.


Hello and welcome to Part one of my Real Audio Out of body travel series. In this part we will cover the ground work necessary to ensure your success in this skill.
Out of body travel is a skill that is becoming more obtainable as the energy of the planet raises upward. This skill is not always easy to reach. It takes a bit of time and practice as well as a bit of luck and determination. The skill is purposefully difficult so that only those people that are ready for the expansion of consciousness that results from out of body travel may obtain it. This difficulty does not mean you can't learn to out of body travel, what it means is that you must really want to do this and have an inner calling of a sorts for it. Those that don't have this inner calling will usually give up or not be persistent enough to manifest the skill.
Certain things need to be set up to enable you the best chance at succeeding.
First you need to do some kind of energy exercise 2 or 3 times a day to build up the energy necessary to obtain lift off. I suggest the middle pillar exercise or some kind of chakra exercise.
Second, you need to set up a schedule of when you will try to out of body travel. This schedule should be something like one or two times a week at a specific time and at a specific place. This scheduling does a few things. It sets up a routine in your unconscious mind and tells the unconscious mind that something special is going on. It alerts your nonphysical spirit guides that this is the time and place for it to happen and that they should be around at that time. The schedule also keeps you from burning away all that energy you are building up from your chakra exercises. Try to make your schedule no more than twice or three times a week and not on consecutive days. You need a recharge period between attempts.
Next you need to change your breathing for the out of body attempt. What you need is the rhythmic breath. This breathing changes the way the energy in your body is used and gives you more of that energy for the out of body event. Practice the rhythmic breath during the day when you can, so that it will more or less be automatic when you go for your out of body attempt.
Finally what I suggest doing is asking in some short nice ceremony for help from the Archangel Sandalphon. He's the guy that ultimately will give you the out of body push you need to get out. While you may never see this being, know that if you get out of your body, he was there in the background helping you. And don't forget to thank him once you do achieve your first out of body event.
You lay down on your back or stomach in your chosen spot.
You do a middle pillar exercise to get the energy going.
You then begin your rhythmic breathing and begin to relax.
You focus on staying alert while you body drifts off to sleep. Keep doing this till you fall off to sleep or for at least 15 minutes.
Now this is as far as I want you to go for this first part of our out of body lesson. If you can do this for a month, then by next month you will be ready for the next phase of the operation.
I would suggest some reading to go along with this part. I kept this first part a bit brief because you need to do this further reading to be successful. The reading also helps to unlock some other energies that you will need for the adventure.
Part 1 and 2 of my out of body travel series.
So, okay, now you have your start. Good luck and have fun.

We believe the Bible, composed of the sixty-six books of the Old and New Testaments, to be the inspired (God-breathed) Word of God (2 Timothy 3:16). It is the final authority for all matters of faith and practice. In other words, it is the revealed will of God concerning what Christians should believe and how they should live.
The Bible is our ultimate statement of faith. "Where the Bible speaks, we speak; where the Bible is silent, we are silent." Doctrinal creeds and statements of faith can be both divisive and misleading, since they are all composed by imperfect human beings.
Although we prefer the Bible to speak for itself, for the purpose of understanding the basic doctrinal positions of Lake Hills Church, the following is presented.
Jesus Christ was conceived by God the Father, through the Holy Spirit (the third person of the Trinity) in the virgin Mary's womb; therefore, He is the Son of God (Matthew 1:18, 25; Luke 1:35; Isaiah 7:14; Luke 1:27-35).
The church is the Body of Christ, the habitation of God through the Spirit, with divine appointments for the fulfillment of Jesus' Great Commission. Every person who is born of the Spirit is an integral part of the church as a member of the body of believers. There is a spiritual unity of all believers in our Lord Jesus Christ. (Ephesians 1:22, 2:19-22; Hebrews 12:23; John 17:11, 20-23).
The Lord's Supper: A unique time of communion in the presence of God when the elements of bread and grape juice (the Body and Blood of the Lord Jesus Christ) are taken in remembrance of Jesus' sacrifice on the Cross (Matthew 26:26-29; I Corinthians 10:16, 11:23-25).
Healing of the sick is illustrated in the life and ministry of Jesus, and included in the commission of Jesus to His disciples. It is given as a sign, which is to follow believers. It is also a part of Jesus' work on the Cross and one of the gifts of the Spirit. (Psalm 103:2-3; Isaiah 53:5; Matthew 8:16-17; Mark 16:17-18; Acts 8:6-7; James 5:14-16; I Corinthians 12:9, 28; Romans 11:29).


Here at the National Pain Report, we attempt to share with you the latest information on chronic pain, to help sufferers and their families stay informed.
We are a news site, and seem to be attracting a pretty good and a growing audience. So it probably isn't in our best interest to encourage you to go somewhere else for news.
But we are going to do that just this one time.
If you haven't seen it, you should watch the CNN documentary called "Weed". It aired on Sunday night on CNN — and knowing CNN it will run a few dozen more times in the coming weeks.
Here's the Huffington Post story on it.
We are suggesting you watch it because we know that chronic pain sufferers are interested in the medicinal effects of marijuana. We know the interest in marijuana is real because our own stories on the topic always generate a lot of interest and some comment. Here is a recent column by Carol Levy about her changing views on the topic.
CNN's chief medical correspondent, Dr. Sanjay Gupta, has essentially been "coming out" on marijuana, admitting in numerous public appearances and op-eds in advance of the documentary that he's changed his mind on the topic of the medical use of marijuana.
The documentary features researchers in Israel who have been exploring the medicinal benefits of marijuana for many years and reviews the lack of meaningful research being conducted on the matter in the United States. The documentary also has a number of video anecdotes on how people using marijuana are coping better with their chronic pain, among other maladies, even suggesting that very early research indicates marijuana may even help treat cancer.
Gupta was critical of the medicinal uses of marijuana as recently as 2009.
Here's the entire USA Today story on Gupta.
But what we are seeing and feeling on the marijuana debate is a rapid change in public opinion.
Like another social issue–gay marriage–public opinion about the legalization of marijuana seems to be moving very fast from being very much against to approval.
In April, the Pew Research Foundation released a poll that said 52% of Americans believe marijuana should be legalized and then regulated and taxed like alcohol.
At the National Pain Report, we are agnostic over whether it should be legalized, but we do believe — like many of our loyal readers — that serious medical research into the use of marijuana to treat chronic pain is long overdue.
What do you think? You can let us know by commenting below.
I watched the documentary 'Weed' on CNN and found it well executed and conceptualized. If you ask me the documentary has clearly pointed out how medical marijuana is helpful in treating diseases. As mentioned in the article, research carried out in places like Israel is further providing impetus to marijuana for the hope it may even help cure cancer. So what do you have to say all weed haters? Now even CNN advocates medical benefits of cannabis.
I don't have my "green card" as they call it in my state! But I found the Gupta report to be very informative. I think that it is time for some quality studies so risk/benefit can be assessed as it is in most treatment. A lot is known from Israel, apparently! So far, it seems that there is not much harm from evidence over the years. All that has been complicated by prohibition. Past time for that to end.
I am Bipolar and also have cronic pain. I used on occasion marijuana when I was younger it always made me feel relaxed and is really good if you have problems sleeping. I would love to see how it would help me with my pain and I already know helps with the Bipolar but it is not legal where I live now, NC. Also I dont want to lose my job. They are now making it a big deal on taking painkillers because alot of people are addicted to them. Yes there is always people who become addicted to any drug, look at alcohol, it is a drug but is legal and there are alot of alcoholic. If I had the choice and marijuana worked I would rather use that than to take pain killers. The only painkiller I dont have bad effects and dont make me feel funny or sick is vicodin or the generic version. Not everyone likes the effects of pain killers, I certainly dont. I read something about they have some marijuana products that dont give you the high feeling and that sounds great to me.
I have chronic, ok constant headache from a brain aneurysm. I am so sick of the side effects of the "man made" drugs. Which means I have to take more pills. A little bit of marijuana releaves the constant nagging headache. It's that easy.
Like Kathy who responded here, I also suffer from agonizing pain from Fibromyalgia and osteo/rheumatoid arthritis and it's a daily -24/7- reality. Through all the synthetic, allopathic pain medications that are addictive, inadequate, harmful, or expensive – the single treatment to ELIMINATE my pain has been cannabis. This is a miracle treatment for pain – and the research in the documentary "WEED" is exciting in its exploration into the use of cannabis to CURE!!! To possibly cure a person of a disease – how exciting!!
Thank you, Dr. Gupta for coming out of the cannabis closet! I suffer with fibro and RA…I hate feeling like a criminal because this plant helps relieve the pain in my body.
I think that the plant has many medical applications, and that the drug companies would be put out of business if marijuana oils proved to be effective in relieving pain, but that's a whole other investigation.
It shows a lot of courage for Dr Gupta to admit that he was wrong about Medical Marijuana.
there is NO EXCUSE for the federal govt to not revisit their policy on the substance. People's well-being are concerned here. Should we cater to the mistaken, obsolete mentality that marijuana is evil while people (like Charlotte in the documentary) suffer without it's medicinal benefits being readily available and without fear of Federal prosecution?? Enough is enough, re-classify Marijuana in the Federal level so that States can make their own decisions and not be subject to unjust federal oversight.
I think a lot of people who are chronic pain sufferer's would try almost anything to relieve the debilitating pain. Everyone has their own idea's on such things as Marijuana but wouldn't like to try it unless it is legalised. If it does help & it sounds like some Dr's are now believing this to be the case, then you should be able to decide for yourself if you want to try it & not have the Government dictate to you.
Honestly? What substances people do or don't put into their own bodies should be up to the individual, not the government. This goes for ALL substances, not just marijuana.

Ann L. Winblad (Red Wing, 1 de noviembre de 1950) es una mujer de negocios estadounidense. Es socia fundadora de Hummer Winblad Venture Partners.

Educación
Ann L. Winblad Nació el 1 de noviembre de 1950 en Red Wing, Minnesota. Hija de Wilbur Winblad y de Elizabeth Dura, ella y sus otros cinco hermanos crecieron en Rushford y Farmington.

Durante sus años de instituto, fue una animadora y estudiante valedictorian. Winblad consiguió el Bachelor de Artes en Matemáticas y en Administración Empresarial en la Universidad de St. Catherine y su maestría en Educación en la Universidad de St. Thomas, St. Paul, Minnesota. Recibió el Premio John F. Cade  por su emprendimiento sobresaliente en 1997.

Con la maestría completada, Winblad se unió a la Reserva Federal donde trabajo por 13 meses.

Carrera
Después de conseguir su licenciatura, Winblad y tres cotrabajadores dejaron la Reserva Federal para fundar Open Systems Inc. La compañía de software de contabilidad fue eventualmente vendida por $15 millones de dólares seis años después. Después de la compañía fue vendida, Winblad se convirtió en una asesora de tecnología de IBM y Microsoft; ella también habría invertido en Microsoft. Conoció a Bill Gates, quien es cinco años  más joven que ella, en la conferencia de computación Ben Rosen-Esther Dyson en 1984 y salieron hasta 1987. Siguen siendo amigos desde entonces.

En 1989, Winblad y John Hummer cofundaron la firma de capital riesgo Hummer Winblad Ventura Partners. Tomo casi dos años para levantar suficientes fondos para lanzarlo, con IBM y El St. Paul Compañías como inversores primarios. En sus mejores años, Hummer Winblad Ventura Partners lanzó 16 startups.

En 2000, Winblad fue ingresada en el Salón de la fama del Fortune Small Business.

Vida personal
Cuando Bill Gates estaba por casarse con Melinda Gates, tuvieron un acuerdo en el que él y Winblad podrían mantener una tradición de vacaciones viva de sus años de novios. Cada primavera, como lo han hecho por una década, Gates estaría un fin de semana largo con Winblad en su cabaña de playa en Carolina del Norte, donde montan areneros, caminan en la playa, y comparten sus pensamiento sobre el mundo y sobre ellos mismos.

Ann estuvo casada con el detective privado Alex Kline, el hermano más joven del actor Kevin Kline.

It's the last day of July and the last day of Dress Month here at Cheryl Shops, so I'm wrapping it up with an outfit featuring pieces you've seen before (with one slight exception). It's a little segue into August—side note: how is it August already?!—a month in which I will be on a shopping diet in preparation for my trip to France at the end of the month. So until I go on a major shopping binge in Paris, I'll be finding new life in things I already own and resisting the urge to shop the clearance sales (or the new fall merchandise). So without further ado, here's my last dress outfit of July and my first throwback for August.
You've seen this sweater before—most recently here—and as I mentioned last time, it's one of my favorites, as it's the perfect weight for San Francisco, and I love the color too. I realize that its shape does nothing to fix the bathrobe-and-nightgown vibe of my look, but hey, it was the weekend, and I was all about wearing my comfys. One important thing to note: this cardigan is on MAJOR SALE right now at Madewell—like, slightly over $20, which is an amazing deal, so you should buy one. I'd order it in another color, but oops, I'm on a shopping diet!
This bag is the only thing you haven't seen before—I wore the earrings just last week and the Adidas sneakers last fall—but it's also part of the summer Box of Style that you can still score for an extra $30 off with code LASTCHANCEAFF. This bag is meant to be a beach bag, and it's probably great for that, since it's woven and the sand would hopefully sift through the cracks, but I've found it to be pretty helpful on days where I need to tote around a bunch of stuff—in this case, I had been at a picnic earlier in the day, and it was perfect. It's a little bigger than what I'd normally carry, but it's nice and lightweight. Said picnic is why I'm wearing sneakers too—normally I'd do sandals with a dress like this, but I was on gravel and wanted to keep my feet as clean as possible. Adidas are just so classic, and I love how the stripes on the shoes echo the stripes on my dress and on the handles of the bag.
We shot these photos in Point Reyes, California, a little town along the Marin County coastline. It's the home of Cowgirl Creamery (the best cheese in California) and a lovely public bathroom that I almost always have to utilize on the way to Hog Island Oyster Farm, where we had our picnic. I highly recommend stopping by for some oysters, and spending time in Point Reyes as well—it's worth it for these unicorn murals alone!
I love this cardigan on you with the black and white.T shirt dresses are great and this peachy color I love! I could use some long cardigans for Fall, so I am keeping an eye out. Thanks for sharing more about Cali, I hope to visit at some point!
This is such a cute and comfy outfit! The cardigan is the prettiest color!
Love your dress, Cheryl. I would love one like this :) How sweet is the unicorn wall too. Thanks for sharing at The Wednesday Blog Hop.
Such a fun and comfy look!
This is the cutest t shirt dress! I love the stripes and totally agree that a t shirt dress can be worn so many ways!

Media Release: Cigna Delighted To Sponsor Disabled Sportsperson Of The Year Category At Sports Awards
Media releases 10 Jun 2016
Fresh from committing to supporting the iconic Wellington Round the Bays event for another two years until 2018, leading insurance provider Cigna has become category sponsor of the Disabled Sportsperson of the Year award at the prestigious Sport Wellington Sportsperson of the Year Awards.
The Awards will host 650 guests and be held at the TSB Arena on Wednesday 15 June, recognising excellence and achievement across the greater Wellington sports sector.
Established in 1969 and now in their 47th year, the Sports Awards feature 12 categories ranging from volunteer to coaching to Sports Man and Woman, with the evening culminating in the supreme Sportsperson award. Sport Wellington delivers the event each year as part of their vision for everyone in the Wellington region to have a lifelong involvement in sport and active recreation.
Wellington-based Cigna has a track record of supporting athletes with disabilities through its official charity partnership with Achilles International New Zealand. Achilles provides New Zealanders with disabilities the opportunity to participate alongside able-bodied athletes in local mainstream events like Cigna Round the Bays, and the Wellington Marathon as well as the high-profile international New York Marathon.
"When Sport Wellington approached us to sponsor the Disabled Category it was a very easy decision to make " says Cigna CEO, Lance Walker. "We're passionate about helping to bring sport and fitness opportunities to the community, and through Achilles, we're already providing support and opportunities for disabled athletes."
Sport Wellington CEO Phil Gibbons says that "The partnership with Cigna continues to grow and we are grateful to them for expanding their support of Sport Wellington by sponsoring this key category at this great event. The Awards is a wonderful showcase of Wellington athletes and coaches and officials, and for the finalists and the winners, it is a memorable night."
Sport Wellington has organised the showpiece event since 1999 with the Awards regarded nationally for their presentation and flair. For more details go to: http://wellingtonsportsawards.co.nz/

Verizon sponsored a contest during the On the Lot series. Los Angeles was a funny place in 2007. Writer's Strike meant nothing on TV except reality. The contest was to make a short film in 1 weeks time and upload it to the site, where it would be voted on by the public. First prize was 5 grand in B&H equipment. I had a camera, an actress and an apartment. They gave everyone a genre for the week. This week, action.
I wrote the script in a day. It kind of poured out and then I figured out the ending and rewrote that. It was a good twist in under 3 pages. I felt like you got a sense of the relationship between the characters and I got to be someone very different from myself.
Building the plastic explosives from stuff we found at Home Depot was a blast. It's amazing what you can pull together with a printer and a little wire.
Cecily did a wonderful job acting. The big challenge was the stunt at the end where she had to flip from couch to a mattress behind it. I wished the camera was higher quality and the slow-motion jump could've been less in-post. Jake Doris sent me some tracks to put under it. In one week's time we'd written, shot, starred-in and cut a 3 minute short.
All done, they gave us 2nd place for the week. We didn't move on to the $5K round. We were beat out by a film class in a suburb of L.A. who also entered an action film.

by Bryan Ostrow
The new year is upon us, and though touring acts are laying low for the winter, there are still a healthy number of artists showcasing the wonderful talent we have right here in Colorado. This week, we can put the loud amps away, and pull out an acoustic guitar because there are some awesome folk, Americana and bluegrass shows happening along with a new album from Joe Johnson.
Johnson is known in Colorado Springs for his blues-inspired country music. As 2020 and 2021 took from many of us, Johnson decided to record some of the songs he'd written a few years before as a reminder to people that we go through loss and are not alone. The product was Dark Horse, Pale Rider.
"I tried to design this album in such a way that people can take some hope in the fact that we all experience darkness, pain and isolation and we are not ever truly alone," he says.
Loss isn't a new experience for Johnson, but when the pandemic hit, he noticed it was a new feeling for many people, so he decided to revisit some songs to make people feel not alone.
"I have dealt with loss as far back as my earliest memories. The idea and reality of people and experiences being finite is interwoven into who I am at this point," Johnson says. "The bulk of these songs were written in 2018-2019 while touring. I was on the road a lot and spending far too many nights alone in my thoughts, so I wrote quite a bit.
"The situation we faced during the pandemic brought so many people to a similar point that I felt like I had something to say that could really resonate. So I collected the material that I felt would make a good representation of the emotions I and most people I know were dealing with — isolation and fear."
During the process of creating the record, Joe lost three very important souls. His mother Janis Stringfield, and fellow musicians Duane Mark and Iggy Igloo. He decided to dedicate the album to them and even got to perform it in full for Iggy in the hospital. "I was able to spend one day with him by his bedside at the hospital," Johnson says. "I played the entire album for him, front to back. He told me 'Man, this album is the one.' I'm forever thankful for that day with him."
Dark Horse, Pale Rider was released on Dec. 22, 2021, and is available exclusively at joejohnson.bandcamp.com.
This weekend is packed full of awesome shows all around town. On Friday, Jan. 14, Nathan Archer returns to the stage with his Rough Age project at Jack Quinn's Irish Pub and Restaurant with guests MR3. You can also head to Lulu's Downstairs in Manitou Springs Friday as Rootbeer Richie & The Reveille bring their special brand of swamp pop with special guests Dear Rabbit. Saturday, If you're feeling like some singer-songwriter action, make your way up to Palmer Lake Pub for Brandon Henderson and Taylor Biskup.
Tejon Street Corner Thieves have been busy. Like really busy. They recently completed their epic 14-week tour with Amigo the Devil, and it was a life-changer. "It was like nothing I've ever experienced. The emotions were overwhelming, the experience was overwhelming, and the work was overwhelming," laughs banjo badboy Connor O'Neal. "It was a great experience and introduction to 'the big leagues.'"
They're now playing a special headlining set at The Black Sheep on Friday, Jan. 14, with Red Mountain Boys. A return to the local stage is always fun and needed. "I'm just glad to be home! We're so used to doing local bar gigs and busking around the Springs, and I've missed so many of our friends and fans here. Headlining or not, this is our town. And we just want to party with everyone," O'Neal says. "It's nice to get out, but Colorado Springs is and always will be something special. People always joke like 'Don't forget us little guys,' and the truth is, you ain't little." He continues, "Colorado Springs is the biggest support system, biggest fan base and biggest influence of TSCT. I know The Black Sheep is a few blocks from Tejon Street, but we promise, the energy will be the same."
OK, we can pull the loud amps out of the closet now. On Saturday, Fort Collins Indie rock group Lady Denim will be playing a rescheduled show at Vultures. If you're into something a little harder, head next door to The Black Sheep for a local metal show with The Guise of a Demon, When Darkness Falls, Diabloso and Beyond Forgiveness. Sunday will bring a night of comedy and music — The Wheel of Doom. Comedians Leslie Fox, Nate Roppolo and Aaron Wentz will bring this special interactive comedy act that involves spinning (you guessed it), a wheel. The night will start with music by Grimmly and end with the progressive rock of Get The Axe.

Very professional salon and the best of Redlands! Love Lupe!
Julian August is an excellent salon with stylist that are trained in all aspects of their craft. The owner, Lupe Voss, is known around the country as an expert in the field and is an amazing colorist! If you want beautiful hair and a relaxing, pampering experience then this is the place for you.
I've been driving to this salon from Orange Co. for over 24yrs because they are so good at what they do & they are so friendly & provide great service.
Warm, friendly atmosphere. Feels like I'm walking into an old friend's house every time I get my hair done.
It is always a delight to go to Julian August. I have been going to Lupe for 20 years and my entire family have become clients. Her staff is brilliantly trained and I would trust any of her stylists to work on my hair (and have!!!). I have gotten complements around the world for my color which Lupe crafted from the colors in my sons' hair. She is a genious. But, more than that, it is a fun, friendly environment that lifts your spirit.
All of the stylists and staff are friendly and professional. The environment is soothing and the service is exceptional. I would recommend Dani for expert color and highlighting.

The Secrets of Edward Leedskalnin and His Incredible Coral Castle
Christina Sarich
People from all over the world travel to Egypt or Machu Picchu to draw inspiration and wonder from the massive pyramids that litter the desert sands, or the ruins of ancient civilizations, but there is an even more astounding mystery called Coral Castle right in the middle of Homestead, Florida off Dixie Highway just outside of Miami in the US. Otherwise known as the American Stonehenge, this site defies any logical explanation. Built by a reclusive genius – the Latvian immigrant named Edward Leedskalnin, Coral Castle is a series of coral blocks, many weighing in excess of 30 tons that are arranged to create an imaginative abode. To this day, no one has been able to determine exactly how Leedskalnin built this enigmatic structure. Did he have access to the same secrets as those who built the ancient Pyramid of Giza, or the Great Sphinx?
The castle is made with 1,100 tons of rock, yet the man was merely five feet tall, and weighed just 110 pounds. His miraculous engineering created a universal wonderland with a 22-ton obelisk, a 22-ton moon block, a Saturn block, a 23-ton Jupiter block, a 9-ton gate, a rocking chair that weighed 3-tons, and many coral rock puzzles. A huge 30-ton block, which he considered to be his premier achievement, he crowned with a gable shaped rock.
Leedskalnin said he knew the secrets of the ancient Egyptians, but he took them to his grave in 1952. He did leave a few hints, but they are cryptic to say the least.
In his five pamphlets Ed talked of "mineral, vegetable, and animal life," "magnetic currents," and other seemingly unrelated topics such as the importance of books, (he built huge coral reading chairs though he didn't even have electricity at the time his castle was built) his belief's about the life cycle, and even his political slant. None of these seem to give a definitive answer for how he made his magic happen.
Ed was known to tinker with radio sets, too though, so was he figuring out how to work with resonance as a way to move these tremendous boulders of coral? Did his seeming ability to levitate heavy objects have something to do with the stars above him? His castle does contain a 'moon fountain' which is comprised of three huge pieces of rock, a sun dial, labeled with the time from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM (noting that these were the times a man should work), a sun coach that is 8 feet in diameter, and planets, including a prominent Mars, where Ed believed there was indeed life.
It might be that a modern-day genius had figured out both the secrets of the pyramids and Leedskalnin's ace-up-his- sleeve, but was poisoned to death before he could share his ideas with anyone of note.
Around 1980, an inventor named Stanley Meyer invented special circuitry that made it possible to break apart water molecules much more efficiently than normal electrolysis would normally allow, which afforded him to create energy from the water than he was consuming from the electrical source in surplus. Coincidentally, this special circuitry is based off of the resonant frequency of water. The system is said not work unless the exact resonant frequency of a water molecule is used, and of course that frequency can change based on the impurities in the water, salt content, etc. Was Leedskalnin a frequency master? Did he use water to raise his incredible coral rocks and fit them perfectly into place, as the Egyptians might have?
Not only are certain frequencies known to induce altered states, but might they not induce matter to behave differently if orchestrated by a true frequency mastermind?
One of the known secrets of the Universe is the novel application of sound frequencies. John Worley Keely discovered that certain musical frequencies allowed him to accomplish amazing feats which defied conventional physics and confounded the academics of his time.
"Music on earth was a reflection of the greater 'music of the spheres', a harmony created by relative distances and rates of motions of the planets – a harmony that was constantly present, if only people were sufficiently sensitive to hear it." (Yudkin, Jeremy, Music in Medieval Europe, 1989).
If Leedskalnin and the Egyptians were familiar with the 'music of the spheres' this may have been part of the secrets of their phenomenal building achievements. It may have been that these frequencies altered matter itself, or that the consciousness of the individual was altered so that he or she could then alter reality. The reality we experience is an illusion anyhow. In fact everything we call real is made of things that can't be called real at all.
To wit:
"A fundamental conclusion of the new physics also acknowledges that the observer creates the reality. As observers, we are personally involved with the creation of our own reality. Physicists are being forced to admit that the universe is a "mental" construction. Pioneering physicist Sir James Jeans wrote: "The stream of knowledge is heading toward a non-mechanical reality; the universe begins to look more like a great thought than like a great machine. Mind no longer appears to be an accidental intruder into the realm of matter, we ought rather hail it as the creator and governor of the realm of matter. (R. C. Henry, "The Mental Universe"; Nature 436:29, 2005)"
Leedskalnin likely was trying to avoid the same fate that Meyer, and many other scientists and inventors endured who may have shed some clear light on Coral Castle, and other great pyramids throughout the world, but one thing is certain. Ed had some insights that most of us yet are privvy to. We just need to open our minds.

This article was inspired by the recent experience of my Son following a nasty comminuted fracture to his left radial bone. The hospital care was kindly but lacking in so many ways, especially with hands-on care. I began work immediately on his arm. The whole thing had almost been wrenched off at the elbow. The upper part of the radius had to be replaced by a metal implant. After three months of my work, the surgeon stated that it was a 'miracle cure thanks to the work of his Father'. He was truly surprised by the progress. This made me think about all of the people out there who don't get my sort of help, faced with the usually poor quality help on offer. Therefore, this article is for your edification and is to encourage you all to do something about it when you have suffered a fracture anywhere in the body!
What is Bone?
Our skeleton is composed of 206 bones. Some of which are much more likely to fracture than others.
Our bones are made of calcium, phosphate, collagen, and water. Bone is among the strongest materials created by nature. Prior to birth and for several months after birth, the skeleton has very little bone. Many bones start out as cartilage and as a child grows, cartilage transforms into true bone (a process called endochondral ossification). Early in life, more bone tissue is added than is taken away. Maximum bone density and strength is reached between ages 25 and 30.
In addition, bones are surprisingly light, accounting for only 14% of total body weight, or maybe 20 pounds. Bones are a storehouse of minerals. They hold 99% of the body's calcium, 86% of its phosphate, and 54% of our magnesium. These minerals are stored in the bones and are continually released into the bloodstream to maintain the body's chemical balance within the cells.
Fractures, or broken bones, are extremely common. Approximately 6.8 million Americans break a bone each year. On average, every person in the United States will experience two broken bones over the course of a lifetime.
The most frequent cases of post-fracture rehabilitation that have been presented to me are:
The arm, clavicle, elbow, radial head, ribcage mostly in the midribcage from the 6th rib downwards.
The wrist, radius, ulna, carpal bones (mostly the Scaphoid) and the finger bones.
The ankle including the tibia, fibula, 5th metatarsal, 3rd metatarsal, talus and toe bones.
The spine, compression fractures, fracture of the spinous processes, atlas-axis fractures.
Skull fractures and compression fractures of the sutures.
How Do Bones Break?
Bones are made up of bone cells, proteins, and minerals. Although your bones are amazingly tough - one cubic inch can withstand loads of almost 19,000 pounds, about four times the strength of concrete – they can still break. Like a wooden pencil, bones can bend to a certain extent, however, once the pressure is too much or too sudden, your bone might break, or fracture.
There's more than one type of fracture. A fracture can be anything from a hairline fracture (a very thin break in the bone) to the bone being broken into two or more pieces.
Fractures can occur in the following ways:
Open (compound) Fracture:
A fracture in which the bone is sticking through the skin, also called an open fracture.
Compression fracture:
Under tremendous force such as falling onto your head or putting your hand out to stop yourself from falling over, a bone can 'squash' or 'crush' across their transverse plane.
Stress fracture:
Where a muscle has contracted so hard and its attachment so broad that instead of pulling out a chunk of bone like the avulsion fracrue, it levers the bone so strongly that the bone snaps. Most common in weight lifters.
Avulsion fracture:
This occurs at the attachment of muscle or ligament to its boney anchoring point. Over strong and sudden extreme effort by the muscles can tear away form the bone. Over stretched suddenly the ligaments can tear away from the bone. Often leaves an outgrowth of bone behind.
Greenstick Fracture:
The bone cracks one side only, not all the way through (like when trying to bend a living stick on a tree), usually only seen in children due to the softness of their bones
Transverse Fracture:
A complete fracture in which the break is straight across the bone.
Communited Fracture:
A fracture in which bone is broken, splintered or crushed into a number of pieces.
Impacted Fracture:
A fracture in which the bone ends are shoved up inside each other by the force of the trauma.
How Do Broken Bones Heal?
If a fractured bone is to resume its normal function, it must be repaired. Your bones are natural healers. At the location of the fracture, your bones will produce many new cells and tiny blood vessels that rebuild the bone. Fragments of broken bone are removed from the site by osteoclasts, specialized bone cells that dissolve and reabsorb the calcium salts of nonliving bone matter. Then special bone cells, called osteoblasts, activate to produce new material which "knits" the ends of the bone together. Most fractures repair themselves within six weeks. Some bones, however, have a poor blood supply and repair takes longer. These include the neck of the femur and the lower portion of the tibia.
What happens to the soft tissues involved in fractures?
They get torn, strained, swollen, inflammed, shortened, weakened, develop scar tissue and restrict the range of movement.
What is a joint adhesion?
Where inflammation occurs close to or around a joint, adhesions are most likely to occur. The inflammatory process produces what are called 'inflammatory exudates'. These exudates are 'sticky' and are there to 'glue' everything back together again following trauma. Thus, if an area of stiffness is left too long following trauma it is quite likely to become more tightly glued together. The body takes away most of the stickiness naturally but only in the prescence of movemnet. Movement supplies the impetus for the removal of the stickiness. Also when a joint has become swollen following trauma the synovial fluid, as well increasing its volumw will make the joint sticky. In the case of joints, they can easily lose their range of movement, either permanently or temporarily depending on the degree of swelling, damage and lack of mobilisation exercises. In the case of an ankle or scaphoid fracture the need for joint articulation by an expert is often essential for complete recovery of movement.
How long does it take to regain mobility, or is it a lost cause?
Whilst repairing itself, the body tells us to move areas which are stiff. Sometimes we find that we cannot obtain any improvement beyond a certain point. Either the joint becomes permanently seized up and we accept it or we can seek extra help from someone like me. The time taken to regain full mobility varies very greatly. Frequently, the body tells us for years after an injury that it needs to move more fully. The lucky ones will have a full recovery within months. The smart ones will seek extra help, this accelerates the rate of recovery and improves the overall outcome in terms of the final available range of movement. The main techniques used are articulation, micro-articulation, myo-articulation, manipulation and specifically tailored progressive exercise regimes.
The long term effects of fractures
Permanent deformity, loss of movement range, muscle weakness, tendinitis and joint arthrosis.
A testimonial:
" I am a professional drummer and went to see Paul when I began to develop severe tension, numbness and shooting pains in the muscles along my forearm and in and around my wrist and thumb. Paul realised that my symptoms were probably due to a fractured Scaphoid bone (circled in red) in my wrist which had occured two years previously. I was getting these sensations every time I played and was in a lot of discomfort, practically unable to play. Paul realised that my symptoms were probably due to a fractured Scaphoid bone in my wrist which had occured two years previously.
On my first session with Paul, he listened closely to my description of the pain and tried to establish why it may have come about. He began work and was able to get to the root of the problem immediately.
After a single, very thorough session I had fantastic results and knew I had found the right man to help me get through this injury. The tension in my arm was massively reduced and the shooting pains all but gone. I was able to resume my practising and performing schedule straight away which was a huge relief. After 3 sessions with Paul my arm felt as good as new! Paul was also able to offer invaluable advice on how to avoid similar problems arising again.
I was extremely impressed with Paul's personal and sympathetic approach and delighted with the wonders he worked on the tension in my arm which I thought was going to keep me out of work for a LONG time . I would recommend him to anybody I know with any similar injuries".

To Live Longer, Get Some Sleep
By Michael Walsh 2017-09-24T12:24:22
Think you can power through on four or five hours of sleep per day? Think again:
A "catastrophic sleep-loss epidemic" is causing a host of potentially fatal diseases, a leading expert has said. In an interview with the Guardian, Professor Matthew Walker, director of the Centre for Human Sleep Science at the University of California, Berkeley, said that sleep deprivation affected "every aspect of our biology" and was widespread in modern society.
And yet the problem was not being taken seriously by politicians and employers, with a desire to get a decent night's sleep often stigmatised as a sign of laziness, he said. Electric lights, television and computer screens, longer commutes, the blurring of the line between work and personal time, and a host of other aspects of modern life have contributed to sleep deprivation, which is defined as less than seven hours a night.
But this has been linked to cancer, diabetes, heart disease, stroke, Alzheimer's disease, obesity and poor mental health among other health problems. In short, a lack of sleep is killing us.
Amen. Lack of sleep is a major risk factor in just about every deadly disease. The body rests and repairs itself while you're out cold; we have to give it time for the pit-crew elves to do their overnight work fixing up the old hulk and getting it ready to sail back into action the next morning.
"I take my sleep incredibly seriously because I have seen the evidence," said Professor Walker, whose book Why We Sleep: The New Science of Sleep and Dreams is due out next month .
"Once you know that after just one night of only four or five hours' sleep, your natural killer cells – the ones that attack the cancer cells that appear in your body every day – drop by 70 per cent per cent, or that a lack of sleep is linked to cancer of the bowel, prostate and breast, or even just that the World Health Organisation has classed any form of night-time shift work as a probable carcinogen, how could you do anything else?"
Why take chances: put your brain back to bed and let your body do its thing. You'll live longer.

Taíno facts for kids
Reconstruction of a Taíno village in Cuba
The Taínos were an indigenous people that lived in the Americas before Columbus arrived there. They came from the Caribbean coast of South America. Around 1200 CE, they moved northward to the island chain of the Lesser Antilles and the Greater Antilles.
When Christopher Columbus came to the Americas, the Taínos were living in the Bahamas, the Greater Antilles (Cuba, Jamaica, Hispaniola and Puerto Rico), and some islands of the northern Lesser Antilles. Their culture was different from the culture of the Arawak people (another indigenous group of South America). They were the first people that the Spanish met in the Americas.
The name Taíno was given by Columbus. When he met some native men, they said "Taíno, Taíno", meaning "We are good, noble". Columbus thought that Taíno was the name of the people.
Rouse divides the Taínos into three main groups. One is the Classic Taíno, from Hispaniola and Puerto Rico. Another is the Western Taíno or sub-Taíno, from Jamaica, Cuba (except for the western tip of the island) and the Bahamas. The third is the Eastern Taíno, from the Virgin Islands to Montserrat.
The Taínos of the Bahamas were known as the '"Lucayan". (At that time, the Bahamas were called the Lucayas). Lucayos were Taínos, but their culture was less developed. Archeologists call them "sub-Taínos".
The Taínos' ancestors went from the center of the Amazon Basin to the Orinoco Valley. From there, they went through Guyana and Venezuela and got to the Caribbean islands.
A different theory says that the Taínos' ancestors came from the Colombian Andes.
The Taíno culture developed in the Greater Antilles.
Dujo, a chair of wood made by Taínos.
Taíno society was divided into two classes. There were the naborias (common people) and the nitaínos (nobles). Both classes were governed by chiefs known as caciques. The caciques could be either male or female. There were also bohiques (medicine men).
The Taínos lived in villages called yucayeques. The villages in the Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico were the largest. The villages in the Bahamas were the smallest. The Taínos built large round houses called bohio, where several families lived. The cacique and his family lived in a rectangular house called caney. People slept on cotton hammocks (hamacas).
The Taínos often played a ball game called batey. Batey was also the name of the place where they played and had dances. The cacique sat on a chair of wood called duho, or dujo.

Britain's largest National Park the Lakes are stunning. Wastwater is Wasdale Valley, Honister Pass, Windernere - names ubiquitous with dramas and poems and folk-lore are waiting to be expored. Views are stunning at what feels like every turn - amble around the various Lakes - Brockhole visitor centre has loads of info regarding distance and difficulty of Lakeland walka - Tarn Hows is in the central Lakes and at just 1.5 miles is perfect for a family stroll. For those with older kids Buttermere is a five mile round trip and stunning once the waterfalls spring.
For something different Ullswater Steamers and the Eskdale Railway both offer fabulous diversions - the Steamer is a two hour round trip from lenridding to Pooley Bridge and there's plenty of things for the children to look out for on the Lake. The railway is a must for any Thomas the Tank fans - and for those who aren't particualrly it's charming.
For bord lovers young and old Whinlatter Visitor Centre puts on an osprey exhibition from Spring through to summer - transport is available to a viewing point.
Lots of pubs and Inns welcome families and many have won varius accolades and awards - The Punch Bowl Inn in Crosthwaite (just outside of Windermere) and The George & Dragon being two. For something of a treat L'Enclume and The Drunken Duck are excellent options if you decide to have a grown up dinner and get a baby-sitter in.
The G & D might not be a typical family break suggestion but with the gorgeous Lowther estate on your door-step, a kitchen that creates perfectly crafted and award-winning meals (in part perhaps due to the admirable pedigree of the organically reared livestock on the estate) and luxury, understated accommodation, a trip here to get some space and fresh Cumbrian air is a fine option before heading back to work.
The bedrooms are both cosy and decadent with fine linens, custom made beds, good robes, fluffy towels, proper power-showers, flatscreens TVs and DVD players - the family room can fit a cot and z-bed in, as required.

Game and Console History:
The SG-1000 II, SG-3000, Sega Mark III & Sega Master are a home video game console manufactured by Sega. It was Sega's first entry into the home video game hardware business. Introduced in 1983, the SG-1000 was released on the same day that Nintendo released the Family Computer in Japan. Sega's software library for the SG-1000 comprises 42 game cartridges. The SG-1000 made little impact on the video game industry, but has been recognized for being Sega's first video game console. The more powerful Sega Master console (1986) was released to compete with the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES).

Sega Master History
In North America, the Master System was launched in 1986 at a price of $200 (equivalent to $466 in 2019), including a multicart of the games Hang-On and Safari Hunt. Nintendo was exporting the Famicom to the US as the NES, and both companies planned to spend $15 million in late 1986 to market their consoles; Sega hoped to sell 400,000 to 750,000 consoles in 1986. By the end of 1986, 125,000 Master System consoles had been sold, more than the Atari 7800's 100,000 but less than Nintendo's 1.1 million.
As in Japan, the Master System in North America had a limited game library. Limited by Nintendo's licensing practices, Sega only had two third-party American publishers, Activision and Parker Brothers. By 1988, Nintendo held 83 percent of the North American video game market. Sega claimed that the Master System was the first console "where the graphics on the box are actually matched by the graphics of the game", and pushed the "arcade experience" in adverts. Its marketing department was run by only two people, giving Sega a disadvantage in advertising.
In 1987, amid struggling sales in the US, Sega sold the US distribution rights for the Master System to the toy company Tonka, which had no experience with electronic entertainment systems. During this time, much of Sega of America's infrastructure shifted from marketing and distribution to focus on customer service. Tonka blocked localization of several popular Japanese games. Though the distributor of the console had changed, the Master System continued to perform poorly in the market.

THE state's failure to evolve a strategy for protecting communities that are vulnerable because of their beliefs has resulted not only in an escalation of attacks on them but also in the emergence of new and more vicious forms of violence.
The killing of seven Hazara workers in Quetta the other day confirms the increased use of a standardised procedure for butchering members of the targeted community. The vehicle in which the victims were travelling was ordered to halt and the passengers made to dismount. The national identity cards of the Hazaras, which were supposed to offer the key to their right to life and security, again served as black warrants to what can only be described as their summary execution.
Similar cases had been reported earlier from other parts of Balochistan, such as Mastung, and from Gilgit-Baltistan. These incidents can no longer be attributed to localised sectarian tensions or conflicts between individual actors; they reveal an organised campaign to force Balochistan's Hazara community to vacate their traditional settlements, if not to exterminate them altogether. If allowed to continue unchecked the anti-Hazara wave of violence could develop into some kind of sectarian cleansing.
These happenings will certainly have a highly adverse impact on the sectarian conflict raging in Gilgit-Baltistan at the other end of the country. The issue there in the beginning was the large Shia population's aspiration to enjoy their due share in the democratised management of public affairs and the other community's resolve to resist this legitimate demand to the extent of foregoing its own democratic rights.
Left to themselves the two communities might not have failed to work out a framework for peaceful coexistence and mutual accommodation. The chances of that happening began to be undermined by Gen Zia's narrow-minded sectarian predilection. By blinking at an external lashkar's bloody assault on the Gilgit Shias he helped the rise of an interventionist force that has apparently decided not to let the people of Gilgit-Baltistan settle their matters amongst themselves.
These outsiders have never relented in their efforts to keep the sectarian strife going. One is amazed to see that all those who always blame foreign hands for any outbreak of lawlessness have not cared to expose the mischief being done by non-local elements in Gilgit-Baltistan.
And in Balochistan too, for credible evidence is available to show that the campaign against the Hazaras is being carried out largely by militant groups based in other provinces. It has often been alleged that these groups finance their operations out of the ransom money collected from victims of abduction and make regular remittances to their head offices, most of them believed to be in Punjab.
That the government's failure to apprehend and punish the culprits in most cases if not all is a major cause of increase in belief-related violence is widely understood. The need to probe the causes of this failure has not received due attention. The view that Pakistan as a whole has moved into a new cycle of violence against the weaker segments of society receives considerable support from the affair of the Christian girl rotting in prison on the charge of desecration of the Holy Quran. Nothing reveals Pakistani Muslims' divorce from sanity as thoroughly as the slogan that the glory of Islam depends on the execution of this mentally challenged adolescent from an oppressed community.
Normally one avoids commenting on matters that are in the stage of investigation but those calling for justice to be done have as much right to have their say as those calling for the girl to be punished before her guilt, or even her ability to consciously commit the offence she has been charged with, is established. The case has acquired additional significance as it displays a new pattern of minority-bashing.
We are familiar with the abuse of blasphemy laws for settling scores with business rivals or to facilitate individual efforts at grabbing the property of members of the weaker communities. The sack of Shantinagar and attacks on Christian churches in Khanewal some years ago and the more recent pillage of Christian quarters in Gojra were attributed to vengeful mischief by the losers in the race for economic advancement.
There was no indication that the law was being abused to force a minority community to vacate the land under its possession or that communal interests of the majority were involved.
A design of this nature has been exposed by the case of the young Christian girl. Her persecutors wanted her community to move off the land occupied by it. Whether those behind the outrage wanted the land to build a colony or a plaza or whether the pious ones only wanted to be rid of some contemptible neighbours is yet to be established. The latter cause is surely much more shameful and distressing than the former. In it can be seen the germs of a segregationist trend the consequences of which will be too horrible to be viewed with equanimity.
Several factors could have contributed to Pakistan's accession to new heights of holy terror. Only the purblind will fail to see a link between the killing of Hazaras in Quetta, the target killings in Karachi, the persecution of the blasphemy accused, the Peshawar explosion that took a dozen lives, and the beheading of 12 soldiers in the tribal belt. Instant justice by self-appointed judges and executioners is apparently an offshoot of extremist theories, such as the rule of takfir, that have been introduced into Pakistani people's religious thought by the so-called revivalists of foreign origin.
The law-and-order paraphernalia possesses neither the mind nor the means to meet the threat from these elements; their challenge calls for a well-thought-out and consistent intellectual response. An example of this kind of exercise was furnished by an Islamabad-based NGO, the Pakistan Institute for Peace Studies, when it held a series of discussions among religious scholars on the phenomenon of Muslims killing fellow Muslims by branding them as renegades.
The proceedings are available in a publication Mas'ala Takfir-wa-Kharooj; and it is a useful introduction to a subject that is likely to have a considerable bearing on our lives. Much more needs to be done in this vein in addition to the promotion of pluralist values from various perspectives, if Pakistani people are to be saved from becoming a horde of savages.
While there is no body in pakistan who does not wish an end to relentless terrorism , kidnappings,target killings inthe name of religion but our Ruling parties don't have time to find out real forces working behind this new kind of war-fare.They are always busy findind ways to keep their co-olitions intact to stay in power.It is true whole thing was planned and progrmmed during Zia period with his consent and connivance and some of his prominent proteges are stil either in the Govt or their suppoters Our various Intelleget agencies have to be re organised retrained to do preventing the unfortunate situations.
Excellent article. May your tribe increase. Hate and killings never solved any problem. It is the moral responsibility of the society to take care of its needy and weak. It is the legal responsibility of the government to protect all people including very vulnerables in the community. Both are failing here and thus the killings continues.
@ Sultan khan Dear Sultan, you r right when u said how to resolve them? Didn't u see the writer's suggestion: 'The law-and-order paraphernalia possesses neither the mind nor the means to meet the threat from these elements; their challenge calls for a well-thought-out and consistent intellectual response." That's one way, we can resolve the problem: first intellectually, then followed up by the law and by its implementation. That process was begun by Mr. Jinnah himself on 11 Aug ? 1947. His was not mere an address, '...religion or caste or creed -- that has nothing to do with the business of the State,.,' it was much more and deeper. Basically, all was related to, as to how the lawmakers should be framing the constitution of the new country, mind it, it wasn't any speech of Jinnah, it was an address to the Constituent Assembly for Pakistan on the occasion of its first meeting. The crux of our problems now lies in our not respecting the words of Mr. Jinnah in that address. Can any country survive and prosper without those fundamentals? It is naive, then, to think we can do without those principles in Jinnah's address. The loss of one part of the erstwhile Pakistan bears the proof of the un?a?void?a?bil?i?ty of the basics that Jinnah laid open in his 11 Aug - address. It?s not only Zia bashing; his irreparable damage to this country need to be mentioned time and again. And when Zia?s name comes up, its only because he was the one in the saddle; but when one mentions Zia this includes all his partners in the wrongdoings as well.
Interesting how more and more people in the country are falling over each other trying to show their regard and sympathy for minorities while still supporting the terrorist organizations in their hunt of innocent men, women and children.
I think now its time to stop Zia-bashing. He is gone decades ago and cannot defend himself. Whatever he did was approved by an overwhelming majority of people, politicians and so-called ulemas of his times some of whom are still shining stars on the horizon of politics and religion. Now is the time to focus on the issues and and how to resolve them instead of bickering as to who was the initiater.
nh, I totally agree with sharma and jibran. A drastic determined action by the Govt. of Pakistan is needed on an urgent basis to eradicate the menace of all types of killings.
I agree with you to the extent that lamenting the failures of the past is a useless exercise and in no way does it help us to improve out today, but Zia remains a symbol of bigotry, hate mongering that divided our society. Railing against him for what he did is an expression of our commitment to building a better Pakistan.
sir, u have forgotten to mention one thing, what zia did, was also approved by the champion of human right, usa.
I dont think it is all about Zia bashing. I think to correct some error first acknowledgement has to be made about such an error being corrected. Focus on issues will come once the source of error is identified. If Zia supporters still persist as you have said " shining stars and all.." then the problem still remains. First the majority has to be convinced as to what Zia did was wrong. Thus this writeup is a step in that direction.
This article reminds me of many written by Cowasjee. His was a voice of sanity in the wilderness of Pakistan. The wilderness has since become even darker.
Stop blaming other for our own misery. I think it's time for Pakistani people rise up against the extremists and eradicate these people that call themselves muslims.
Zia is dead - a crook or a traitor or a saviour is for history to judge. Let us try to resolve the current issue by providing protection to the minorities and punishing these mindless killers!
"Railing against him for what he did is an expression of our commitment to building a better Pakistan." Correct. How to put that commitment into action? We are fortunate to be able to discuss it freely here. But in the broader public it is not well received. The bigotry and ignorance of mullahs that pollute the education of youth (future voters), and the heavy inertia and lethargy of politicians, do not bode well for the future. Where is leadership? One can only hope it isn't becoming too late.


Well, I bought my crystals 115802. I was inactive till that next day. On that next day they were gone. Can you please help me redeem them. I payed money for it.
Please send a message to help@tankionline.com and explain your problem as clearly as you can. After making sure you're not the person who didn't spend the crystals, they will be added back to your account.

Analyse a company's financials — without being an accountant
NAV TL;DR
If you don't have time to read through the whole article, you can check out our short version below:
Here's a 7-item checklist to analyse a company's financials and determine if it is investment-worthy:
Consistent revenue growth.
Consistent earnings growth for the last three to five years or more.
Relatively high net profit margins compared to its peers in its industry. The higher the profit margin, the more profitable and cost-efficient a company is.
Generate positive operating cash flow (OCF) and have a history of consistent OCF growth that grows in tandem with its revenue and profit.
High, consistent current ratio, which measures a company's ability to pay its short-term liabilities with its short-term assets.
Low debt/equity ratio. The higher the ratio, the more aggressive a company is in financing its business operations using debt.
High, consistent return on equity.
Perhaps you're ready to start buying stocks. But how do you determine if a company is as good as people say?
We highlight 7 factors to watch for:
Consistent growth in revenue
Revenue is basically the amount of money a company receives for selling their products/services. In accounting terms, it is sometimes referred to as "sales".
For example, Company X sells 10,000 widgets at a hundred dollars each in one year, the company's revenue for that year is:
You want to look for:
A company that has a history of consistent revenue growth for the last three to five years or more. Quite simply, you want to invest in a company that is able to grow and make more money with time.
Consistent growth in net profit
Net profit (or net income or earnings) is the amount of money a company retains after deducting total expenses and taxes from its revenue.
Continuing on from our earlier example, if Company X makes $1 million in revenue and has total expenses and taxes of $750,000 for the year, its net profit would be:
Net profit is hugely important because a company might have large growing revenues, but still be unprofitable. This can happen if its costs are rising faster than its revenues, and hence its profit margins are shrinking.
A company that has a history of consistent earnings growth for the last three to five years or more. A company that has growing revenues and stable profit margins should have its net profit growing in tandem as well.
High, consistent net profit margin
Net profit margin measures how much out of every dollar of revenue it keeps as profit.
Using the same example, if Company X's revenue is $1 million and a net profit of $250,000, its net profit margin would be:
A company with high net profit margins compared to its peers in its industry. The higher the profit margin, the more profitable and cost-efficient a company is.
Positive operating cash flow (OCF)
OCF is the amount of cash generated by a company's normal business operations. Cash flow is extremely important because it indicates whether a company is able to generate enough cash to stay in business.
Let's go back to our example: Company X has revenues of $1 million and total expenses and taxes of $750,000 in a year.
But if it can only collect $600,000 in payment for the widgets it sold, it means its business operations don't generate enough cash to cover its total expenses; it would have a negative cash flow of $150,000.
In this case, if Company X doesn't have enough cash reserves or can't borrow the money to cover its total business expenses, it will go bankrupt!
A company that generates positive operating cash flow and has a history of consistent OCF growth that grows in tandem with its revenue and profit.
High, consistent current ratio
Current ratio measures a company's ability to pay its short-term liabilities with its short-term assets. The higher the ratio, the more capable the company is of fulfilling this.
A current ratio less than 1 means that a company might have difficulty paying its short-term liabilities when they become due, which is not a sign of good financial health.
You want to make comparisons:
It is also useful to compare a company's current ratio with peers in the same industry to try to understand if the company's current ratio is typical of its industry.
Low debit/equity ratio
Debt/equity ratio compares a company's total liabilities to its total shareholder equity. The higher the ratio, the more aggressive a company is in financing its business operations using debt.
Most people always put their guard up the moment debt is mentioned. But in business, debt is fairly common. The only thing you must ensure is that the debt is manageable.
Debt can increase shareholders' returns as the company uses it to finance bigger business operations to potentially generate more revenue and profit.
However, the increase in earnings must outweigh the cost of the debt's interest payments. It can become risky if a company borrows too much debt and its business operations don't go as planned and profits take a hit. This can sometimes lead to bankruptcy.
Understandably, the lower the debt, the easier it can be managed and the less risk a company carries. The higher the debt, the more risk a company has.
In general, you would want to be a little wary if a company has a debt/equity ratio of more than 1.5 and you might want to ask some hard questions of a company with a ratio of 2 or above.
However, compare this with a company's peers in the industry to get a clearer picture of what is acceptable or good. For example, capital-intensive industries tend to have higher ratios, while a service-base industry might have lower ratios.
High, consistent Return On Equity (ROE)
ROE measures how much profit a company generates with the money shareholders have invested. The higher the ratio, the better the company is at generating profit on its shareholders' funds.
ROE is one of the more important ratios you should pay attention to. Your chance of making money on a stock over the long-term should be higher with companies that consistently generate high ROEs.
The average ROE for Singapore companies is around 10%, but there are wide differences between the industries, with manufacturing registering some of the highest ROEs, and transport and storage some of the lowest. So, it is important to consider each company's ROE relative to its industry peers.

Well based on a bit of discussion I had with ShadowM a few months ago, maybe not getting mainlined isn't all that bad.
I have no objection about this, but can you explain a little bit about your discussion? It might be interesting for all of us!
In the version 1.14. Abhai tells a different story about Malifor. (I like yours more.) Maybe you can ask/convince the devs to use your backstory instead?
Thanks a lot. I will implement it soon.
Thanks for your suggestion. Where can I find the portrait?
In the scenario "Training with dwarves" you only get the gold you have collected from the previous scenario. You should only focus on killing the necessary number of troll units and not try to take down any of the leaders. Use the leadership of the main character (Samori) as much as possible.

Right you are, friend. I assure you that I will change the portraits as soon as I get proper substitutes.
