Psychologists Highlight Pitfalls of Online Dating
By Amanda Gardner
MONDAY, February 6, 2012 (Health.com) — Thanks to the proliferation of online dating, would-be couples are now almost spil likely to meet via email or a imaginario "wink" spil they are through friends and family.
Te 1992, when the Internet wasgoed still te its infancy, less than 1% of Americans met their playmates through private ads or matchmaking services. By 2009, 22% of heterosexual couples and 61% of same-sex couples reported meeting online, one survey found.
Single people have more options than everzwijn before, spil websites such spil Match.com and eHarmony have dramatically widened the pool of potential dating fucking partners. But that may have a downside. According to a fresh review of online dating written by a team of psychologists from around the country, dating websites may warp a person's outlook and expectations ter ways that can actually lower the chances of building a successful relationship.
"Online dating is superb. It permits people access to potential vrouwen they otherwise would not have," says Eli J. Finkel, Ph.D., the lead author of the fresh review, which wasgoed commissioned by the Association for Psychological Science and will show up ter the February kwestie of the journal Psychological Science ter the Public Rente. "However, specific things the online dating industry does [do] undermine some of its greatness."
One of the weaknesses of online dating is an overreliance on "profiles," the researchers say. Albeit most dating websites feature photos and detailed, searchable profiles covering everything from personality traits to likes and dislikes, this information isn't necessarily useful te identifying a fucking partner, Finkel and his coauthors write.
That's partly because daters don't always know what they want ter a mate—even tho' they generally think they do. Studies suggest that people often lack insight into what attracts them to others (and why), and therefore the characteristics they seek out ter an online profile may be very different from those that will create a connection te person, the review notes.
"Pretty much all of online dating works through profiles," says Finkel, an associate professor of social psychology at Northwestern University, ter Evanston, Ill. "But you can spend a zillion hours studying profile after profile and, at the end of that Herculean effort, how much closer are you to knowing if there's a romantic spark?"
The abundance of profiles online also may make daters too picky and judgmental, the authors say. The sheer number of options can be terrific, and the ease with which people can sift through profiles—and click on to the next one—may lead them to "objectify" potential fucking partners and compare them like so many pairs of footwear.
"Online dating creates a shopping mentality, and that is very likely not a particularly good way to go about choosing a mate," says Harry Trektocht, Ph.D., one of the review's authors and a professor of psychology at the University of Rochester, te Rochester, N.Y.
The shopping mindset may be efficient online, but when carried into face-to-face interactions it can make daters overly critical and discourage "fluid, spontaneous interaction" te what is already a charged and potentially awkward situation, Trektocht and his coauthors write.
Communicating via email or instant message before meeting te person doesn't always cure this problem. Some online communication is a good thing, the researchers say, but too much of it can skew expectations and ultimately tegenwerking a match. People tend to read too much into emails and other online conversations, which increases the potential for misunderstandings and frustration, they point out.
Some services, such spil eHarmony and PerfectMatch.com, voorkoop to minimize the guesswork involved ter online dating by using mathematical algorithms to match couples according to various traits—including, te one case, the ratio of index- to ring-finger length (said to be a marker of testosterone levels).
The authors of the review are skeptical of thesis claims. They weren't able to find a single rigorous probe displaying the effectiveness of the algorithms, and other research suggests it's utterly difficult to predict the likelihood that a relationship will succeed before two people meet.
"Not only is there no scientific evidence, despite the claims, [but] my team of co-authors have become pessimistic that there could everzwijn be te principle an algorithm that could match people well based on the approaches thesis sites take," Finkel says.
To make matters worse, Finkel and his colleagues say, thesis algorithm-based services may encourage a counterproductive "fate" mindset that prizes initial compatibility overheen other factors that are significant to the long-term health of a relationship, such spil the social and economic support individuals suggest each other, or their capability to cope with stressfull life events.
"Certain sites promise much more than they can supply, and by inducing people to search for that volmaakt soul mate, they may actually be undermining the very thing [people] most want," Trektocht says.
None of this, however, means that online dating isn't a good way to meet people. The review stresses that websites are a valuable resource for daters—as long spil a person doesn't waterput too much stock te the profiles or matchmaking claims.
Finkel, for one, advises online daters to identify promising playmates and budge the conversation off-line spil quickly spil possible.
"Don't assume that more time spent browsing profiles is going to improve the odds of meeting someone who is indeed compatible," he says. "Be spil quick and haphazard spil you want with that process, because it's not meaningful."
Instead of poring overheen more profiles and comparing height, weight, occupation, and interests, send a note to a potential date suggesting you meet for coffee or refrigerio (te a public place), and use that time to get to know the other person, Trektocht says.
"Don't concentrate on evaluating that person," he says. "Can you laugh with that person? Can you feel simpatico with that person?"
Spil Finkel puts it, "There's very likely never going to be a substitute for getting two minutes from another person across a cup of coffee."

Then, athletes are placed in game situation drills to evaluate their team leadership, court awareness, and overall game play.
Q: What if my daughter cannot make a tryout date? What should I do?
A: Contact the Administrative Director for a possible alternative tryout. Please note: the club will do their best to put the athlete on a team. However, there is possibility that there are limited or no opportunities to make a team in your age group.
Q: How are the teams chosen? What does AEV look for in a potential player?
1. Is the athlete coachable / accountable?
2. How is the athlete's attitude?
3. Does the player have athleticism?
Q: How many teams do you have at each level at AEV?
A: It varies from season to season. Due to the number of competitive clubs in town, we are focucing on quality of instruction as opposed to quantity of players.
Q: How many players are kept on the team?
A: The coach often determines the number he/she likes to work with. The average is 8-9 players.
Q: What is AEV's philosophy on playing time?
A: Playing time is earned, not given. AEV fees guarantee quality coaching, practice time, uniforms, and training. Playing time is determined by the coach based on several criteria; practice, attitude, game performance, & skill. Every athlete has the opportunity to prove themselves at practice. AEV is a competitive volleyball environment and the teams are administered that way.
Q: How many practices is there a week? How long are they? Where are they located?
A: Juniors teams practice once a week for 2 hours. Top travel and limited-travel teams practice at least twice a week for a total of 4 hours. Practices are held at Amarillo College or AISD facilities.
Q: Where do AEV teams travel to?
A: AEV participates in USAV (USA Volleyball) tournaments and events. Each coach and team will choose which tournaments they participate in. Some example locations include Amarillo, Lubbock, Albuquerque, Dallas/Ft. Worth, Denver, Austin or Houston and Oklahoma City. Nationals for 2009 will be in Miami, Florida. Tournaments are held on Saturdays and/or Sundays around the area. Some teams will travel to tournaments in our region while others may travel a little further to tournaments that offer more exposure and competition.
Q: How many tournaments are played each season?
Q: How will the team get to competitions?
A: It is your responsibility for traveling to and from tournaments. Often times teams will convoy together or parents and players will ride together to share the expenses associated with travel.
Q: How is lodging handled?
A: It is your responsibility to secure lodging. Often time the Team Mom will arrange group room bookings. These things are usually decided at the team meeting at the beginning of the season.
Q: How does the club communicate with players, parents and coaches?
Q: What if my daughter has a problem or a concern during the season?
A: Athletes should direct any problems or concerns directly to their coach.
Q: What if I disagree with the Coach's decision about my daughter's skills or playing time?
A: Try to wait at least 24 hours before you contact the team's Coach to discuss your concern. A new day always brings new perspective. You may not approach the coach during the game. Please be respectful and wait until the time is appropriate and convenient for the coach. If you don't find resolution, then you need to have a formal meeting with coach and Administrative Director.
Q: What about the other clubs in Amarillo?
A: Choose wisely. There are some similarities but differences among the various clubs in Amarillo. We pride ourselves on being non-profit because it helps keep club fees lower for our players.
For- profit clubs have much more overhead they are responsible for like facility costs, owner fees, staff, & coach fees. Political rhetoric can occur between clubs and you should discount the badmouthing of one club by another. If one club has to badmouth another club to convince you to join their club, what does that tell you about that club? We have strong leadership at AEV and ultimately have the player's best interest at heart.
Q: Can my daughter play school sports and still play on an AEV team?
A: Yes. The athlete will not be penalized for missing practice for a school sport. Playing time is usually determined by practice performance, attitude, game performance & skill.
Q: What should I expect for my daughter's first year at AEV?
A: Expect the best. Prepare for the unexpected. It's a learning experience for both players and parents. Please don't hesitate to ask your coach or Director any questions that you may have.

Controversial poet Ronald Stuart Thomas was considered to be one of the leading writers of the twentieth century. This book, in three parts, interprets the development of a major theme over Thomas's twenty-seven volumes, probing particular themes and poems with a meticulous insight. The themes of identity, environment, and deity treated reflect the major preoccupations of his life and work. The book presents a comprehensive examination of these major themes as they occur across Thomas's substantial oeuvre, while providing an expanded frame within which the considerable complexity of Thomas's work can be explored. It suggests that such poetic explorations and revelations of identity provide the prima materia of the poetry and form an underlying foundation to Thomas's poetry viewed as a single body of work. Thomas's treatment of the natural world, in particular the theology of nature mysticism vital to much of his work, is then discussed. The book also looks closely at Thomas's increasing preoccupation with science. It explores his philosophical concern with a scientific register for poetry, his own experimentation with that register, his subtle ambivalence towards applied technology, his ongoing critique of 'the machine', and his view of modern physics. Finally, examining Thomas's 'religious poetry', the book re-focuses on the exact nature of his poetic approach to a 'theology of experience' as reflected in his 'mythic' and 'via negativa' modes. It highlights Thomas's 'reconfiguring' of theology, that is, his insistence on the central validity and importance of individual spiritual experience, both as absence and as presence.

Sunday Igboho cancels Lagos rally due to the attack on his household
Sunday Igboho cancels Lagos rally due to the attack on his household by gunmen dressed in military uniform who raided his house on Thursday morning, 1st of July, 2021.
Sunday Adeyemo, aka Sunday Igboho, has announced the cancellation of the rally that was scheduled to hold in Lagos on Saturday. This latest development is happening as a result of the incident that occurred on Thursday morning where security operatives raided his house in Soka area of Ibadan. The attack resulted in the death of two people, several others missing and valuable properties destroyed.
Igboho, who had initially planned the rally for Saturday in Lagos told the BBC that he had to cancel the rally as a safety measure, because he is no longer safe.
Prior to this attack, he had held several rallies in different parts of the Southwest.
According to Igboho, he was in his house at about 1:30am when he heard gunshots in front of his house and loud shouts saying, "We are DSS, we are soldiers, Sunday Igboho come out."
"I peep through my window. I saw them dressed in DSS and Nigerian army uniform. I was surprised, wondering what the problem was, since I hadn't kill anybody," he said.
The activist also said he was shocked because he had always been nonviolent and his activism focuses on the safety of his people. "All what I have been doing is to fight for my people. My rally has been peaceful. The reason I fight for my people is because Fulani bandits kill and rape them yet government has failed to do the right thing. That is why I have come out to fight for them," he maintained.
The media page of Igboho's spokesperson, Mr Olayomi Koiki, in a live feed monitored by TNG, "alleged some men adorning military uniforms carried out the attack."
Furthermore, the reports also state that due to the attcak Igboho's vehicles, "including his G-wagon, Prado Jeep, some valuable properties including furniture, and windows were destroyed."
Bullet holes were found in cars parked in the premises, and there were blood stains seen at the premises. The bullets as well as the pestle used to gain entrance into the building were also found lying on the floor, while some persons in the house including a close ally of Igboho identified as 'Lady K', were kidnapped.
Before the Thursday attack that has led to the cancellation of the planned rally, Igboho had always insisted it would hold despite cautions by security operatives.
Please let us know what you think about this post in the comment section.

The Adventures of Philip Marlowe was a radio series featuring Raymond Chandler's private eye, Philip Marlowe. Robert C. Reinehr and Jon D. Swartz, in their book, The A to Z of Old Time Radio, noted that the program differed from most others in its genre: "It was a more hard-boiled program than many of the other private detective shows of the time, containing few quips or quaint characters."
The program first aired 17 June 1947 on NBC radio under the title The New Adventures of Philip Marlowe, with Van Heflin playing Marlowe. The show was a summer replacement for Bob Hope. The first episode adapted Chandler's short story "Red Wind". The NBC series ended 9 September 1947.
In 1948, the series moved to CBS, where it was called The Adventure of Philip Marlowe, with Gerald Mohr playing Marlowe. This series also began with an adaptation of "Red Wind", using a script different from the NBC adaptation. By 1949, it had the largest audience in radio.[3] The CBS version ran for 114 episodes. That series ran 26 September 1948 – 29 September 1950.

Criminal Offence


Spring has sprung and you are wondering whether it is a good time for renovation. The experts from Budget Temp Fencing might just have an answer for you.
Home renovations can be one of the most rewarding experiences a person can have. They can also be one of the most stressful is not undertaken at the right time. Figuring out the best time to renovate will ensure you a more enjoyable and successful build. To make things as smooth as possible, here are our suggestions for when to renovate.
There is no point in starting a build if you do not know what you want out of it. Have fun dreaming up some ideas, and then figure out how to turn them into reality. Talk to friends and family who have been through the process and understand what you are in for. It can help to consult with an architect or good builder; they will be able to help you brainstorm and draw up plans. Try to think of renovations appropriate to your budget and site. Once you have a clear direction, you can start figuring out the logistics.
Renovations are completely dependent on budget. Take the time to calculate what you have to spend and arrange loans if you need to. A financial expert such as a banker can help you with this. Try to be realistic – there is no point being too ambitious if it means you might run out of funds and have to make drastic compromises or even stop building. A budget will let you know who you can afford to hire and what you can afford to do. Having a handle on your finances will make your whole build an easier process.
Try to plan your renovations around the seasons. Some stages of a build are best undertaken at specific points in the year. Laying foundations can be slowed down by rain, so try to avoid this stage in winter. Union tradesmen are also unable to work in extremely hot conditions, which will pose another potential delay. The Christmas and New Year periods however are slow times for contractors, so you might be able to arrange a cheaper price over summer. An experienced builder will be able to give you good advice about the best times for the various stages of construction.
Renovations are a great means of adding real value to your home. Prospective tenants or buyers will be willing to pay much more for a house that has had quality renovations. If this is why you choose to renovate, try to get the timing right. You do not want to be putting your home up for sale or lease half finished. It may also help to consult with a real estate expert – they will be able to advise you on what renovations will make a difference on the market.
Budget Temp Fencing can arrange the right fencing for any build site. Our experienced teams can deliver and construct fencing across Australia. Contact us on 1300 971 972 to arrange a quote.

THE ROTTERS
PULL IT AND YELL...
It was 1978 and rock and roll was the worst putrefying heap of overblown bovine excrement imaginable. Walking into a record store was about as fun as having a raging bout of the Hershey squirts and with no choice but to use a Super Seven gas station toilet that was plugged with some wino's puke and butt blow. Hearing the likes of Peter Frampton, Steely Dan, the Eagles, Fleetwood Mac and that phony working class schmuck, the Boss, left us contemplating the big sleep to put us out of our misery. What the fuck was this shit? It sure as hell wasn't rock. We were frustrated, pissed off and offended.
Nigel Nitro and I were a couple of nasty film production students at Moorpark College, just northwest of Los Angeles. We stuck out and didn't fit in. Neither of us wanted to make films with a couple of retarded lovebirds walking on the beach to some lame ass Jim Croce ballad. Our goal was to make vicious, stabbing satires. If people were offended we knew we were on the right track. One night we both saw an episode of 20/20 on the lobotomy box ranting on the evils of this hideous new scourge on society from England called punk rock. It featured live footage of the Damned and the Sex Pistols with subtitles for the lyrics so that the world could see how vile and disgusting they were. They hated it. We loved it. If it pissed them off so much it HAD to be good! It had everything we'd been dying to hear for years and besides, any idiots could do it. That meant us, too.
Within a couple of weeks we started The Rotters with another Moorpark film loony, Bruce Brink on drums and Rip Chord on bass. Bruce soon bailed out for fear that the local Oxnard or Ventura hillbillies would kill him for playing punk, a reasonable concern. Rip's friend Johnny Condom took over on drums. Since Nigel and I were both students at Moorpark College we were able to weasel our way into the recording class almost immediately as they were in need of bands to record on the four track. The recording students hated us. We weren't real musicians. We were sloppy, not together. We were out of tune most of the time. We didn't know what the fuck we were doing. But we didn't care. We had a lot of wild enthusiasm and the teacher of the class, Richard Simpson, caught on to this. He told us; "you guys aren't any good, but you have fun and that's all that's really important." Then he encouraged us to put out a single, which he would master for us for free.
We'd played a few volatile shows. After being kicked out of the Mickey Moose disco in Ventura for sucking and being pelted with debris in Anisque Oyo Park in Isla Vista for being shitty, we knew we were good. "Sit On My Face Stevie Nicks" was a standout and the logical choice for the single. It had been written in about ten minutes as one of the worst songs possible while at the same time taking a stab at the big bucks rock world we hated so much. "Amputee", a kind of anthem of the stupid, was on the flip side.
Once we had a test pressing we naively decide we should take it down to KROQ and give it to Rodney Bingenheimer to play. Rodney's show Rodney On The ROQ was THE punk show on L.A. radio at the time. We drove down to Pasadena to the station and snuck in by standing at the back door with a bunch of punk looking guest types. When they let them in, we walked in too. We didn't know it right away but they were the Ramones and Clem Burke, the drummer from Blondie. Even though we didn't have any drugs for Dee Dee, Rodney still played our record and put us on the air with Joey Ramone. Almost immediately Rodney asked us, live on the air, if we liked the Ramones. Nigel and I simultaneously said, "uh... er... we like the Sex Pistols". They broke for a commercial, told us "you guys gotta leave now!" and kicked us out. But the damage was done. KROQ was inundated with requests for "Sit On My Face Stevie Nicks" the next day.
For some strange reason Fleetwood Mac took offense. Well, there's no accounting for taste. It seems this was the era when Mick Fleetwood was boning Stevie Nicks behind Lindsey Buckingham's back and he felt he had to rescue her honor. Christ! As if they didn't have enough problems of their own with all the break ups, infidelity, cocaine addictions and millions of dollars burdening them! They had to throw their weight around and go after some fledgling punk band. I guess it was a case of the big bully beating up the asthmatic wimp on the playground for making a smart ass comment and laughing during his oral report. We soon found we were banned in Los Angeles. Someone claiming to be Mick Fleetwood himself called KROQ and threatened them with a lawsuit if they played the song, then called Nigel at home with the same threat. All the major record stores in Los Angeles were threatened with no more big selling Big Mac albums if they sold our nasty little single. Ooh scary! What a threat. Who the hell bought Tusk anyway? It sucked the turds out of a dead bloated water buffalo's anus. Some stores hid our records under the table like a bunch of pussies and some gave Fleetwood Mac the finger and still got their albums anyway. Then they decided to be less obvious and the doors to a number of the clubs in town closed to us mysteriously.
We didn't really need their help in fucking everything up though. We could do that ourselves. Any money we might have made went into beer. We couldn't play worth shit most of the time, didn't follow any L.A. punk clique rules and were lazy as hell. None of this helped at all. The second single, "Sink The Whales Buy Japanese Goods" b/w "Disco Queen", we couldn't give away. None of us had any use for stacks of the record so many of the 1,000 copies went into the trash. Now it's a coveted collector's item. Go figure. Disillusioned, with our dreams of glory crushed, we broke up early in 1980. However, The Rotters have managed to survive although not with the original line up. But what the hell, how many punk bands stay the same for more than 20 years? The whole idea of middle age punks is offensive anyway. But then again, that's the point.

The first Rotters 7in. had at least two distinct pressings. The first pressing says "BANNED" only while the second pressing says "BANNED IN L.A." (pictured above). The second and far more rockin' Rotters 7in. was a single pressing, but with a couple of different paper stocks. The more common sleeve is on standard white stock, the less common is on heavier yellow stock (though either are practically impossible to find). Some copies have both sleeves. Both Rotters 45's (along with several other early L.A. punk greats) have been reissued by Dionysus Records.

82% in Ontario want an end to bottled water extraction permits
The Council of Canadians released polling results today indicating that 82% of Ontario residents want the provincial government to permanently stop issuing permits for extracting groundwater to sell as bottled water.
The Ontario government is currently considering whether to extend a temporary moratorium on these permits which will end on January 1, 2019.
"This is one of the strongest poll results we have ever seen," said Emma Lui, Water Campaigner with the Council of Canadians. "Minister Phillips should listen to the people of Ontario and permanently ban groundwater extraction for bottled water. The human right to water for all must be protected."
Polling question and preamble:
"In Ontario, bottled water corporations like Nestle pay a fee of just 1/20th of a penny for each litre of groundwater they extract, while they sell their single-use plastic bottles of water at a high markup. Canadian bottled water exports to the USA have increased by 383% in eight years."
"Given that groundwater resources are vulnerable to over extraction, pollution and the effects of climate change, should Ontario stop issuing new or expanded permits to bottled water corporations?"
82% said that Ontario should stop issuing new or expanded permits to water bottling companies, 11% disagreed and only 7% said they were unsure.
The polling was done between November 15th and November 22nd by Oraclepoll Research. 1500 people in Ontario were surveyed. The margin of error is ± 2.5%, 19 times out of 20.

An Olympian Who Just Died Tragically In Rio Has Already Saved Four Lives
If there was an Olympic medal for posthumous accomplishments, Stefan Henze would surely take home the gold. The 35-year-old German canoe slalom coach died tragically in Rio after a car crash last week. However, the 2004 Athens Olympics silver medal winner was also a registered organ donor.

Justice Department Will Stop the Use of Private Prisons
The U.S. Justice Department will stop using private prisons after concluding that they do not have the same level of safety or quality as penitentiaries run by the Bureau of Prisons.
Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates sent a memo on Thursday that said officials must not renew — or at least must significantly scale back — their contracts with private prisons. The move would cut back the country's reliance on privately run prisons until they are out of service, the Washington Post reports.

Kovas said: "Every project has a natural life cycle, and I think its right to call time on the 64 bar challenge for a few different reasons.
"We've done six mix albums now and each time the standard gets better. That's not to say the first one was poor, quite the opposite, it was a great starting point and something that has been built on.
The 64 bar challenge was conceived by the friends on the Ninja Tune forum back in April 2009. The first mix was launched in June and has 15 tracks from 14 artists.
Users of the forum and blog vote for a tempo, and the six mixes were 108, 140, 88, 98, 128 and finally 110 bpm.
This sixth mix has 29 tunes from 28 artists and DJ Food has been enlisted to piece them together. "The result is quite something, and I'm sure many people will think this is the best mix of the series – so we're going to quit while we're ahead," said Kovas.
At the time of the release of the sixth 64bar challenge, the previous five mixes had over 7000 plays and downloads via this blog and the numerous hosting sites, Postbocks, Mixcloud, Percussion Lab and Official FM.
Kovas explained the initial concept: "The original challenge was to see how many ways people could interpret a set tempo and a set length. Any style was acceptable, and I suppose the first album could be characterised as dark electronica.
The mix, crafted by DJ Food will land in the first week of September. He said: ""I thought the standard this time was very high although the series has had many highlights. Production on some of the tracks is stunning too and would stand up to any current release.


I have a facilitator model teaching style and tend to focus on activities. This teaching style emphasizes student-centered learning and there is much more responsibility placed on the students to take the initiative for meeting the demands of various learning tasks.My teaching style works best for students who are comfortable with independent learning.
Hello everyone!My name is Stella, I was born in Italy and I've been living in London since 2006. I love teaching languages and my students usually have fun while learning.If you want to learn Italian or if you need a translation from Italian to English or vice versa then contact me!
I have been having lessons with Stella for just over a month. In our first lesson, she listened to what I wanted to achieve from my lessons and has helped me to get a lot closer to achieving my goals. Her feedback has been helpful and the pace of the lessons has been appropriate - challenging yet supportive. Stella has been flexible with when and where to have lessons, and has provided appropriate resources. I feel like my Italian has improved a lot in a short space of time thanks to Stella.

January 26, 2013 -- Victoria Azarenka broke down in tears and threw a towel over her head seconds after a cool handshake with a disappointed Li Na at the net.
Azarenka had won her second Australian Open, the first slam of the year, and had retained her #1 ranking, but with controversy and skeptical support from crowds and the media. Her tears had been damned up like water against a dam.
She hung her head as she took a lonely looking walk across Rod Laver Stadium to her box. The trek seemed endless to many ... probably more so to the new champion. However, she was greeted with warmth and fuzzinesses she absolutely needed. Otherwise the girl may have collapsed, prompting yet another medical time out.
"You're a champion, enjoy this one," Sam Sumyk, her coach, told her sincerely.
"We love you," another said, reaching down the high stadium walls as Victoria stretched her fingertips upward to touch her friend's. "You deserve it."
Azarenka took a couple minutes off court to compose herself before awards were presented. By then, Li Na and Vika had relaxed and were laughing merrily with each other. The relief for both must have been extraordinary.
"It's been a real long two weeks for me," Azarenka told the 17,000 seated in the stadium. "But, I will keep it short."
No one needed to hear the details. They had been splashed over local, national and international media for the last two days. But as much as she tried to realign her image during her speech, wishing all a happy Australia Day, she waited until the end to congratulate Li Na.
This final and entire tournament on the women's side, which Azarenka won 46 64 63, raised the level of consciousness of a player's character.
This evening in Melbourne Park they did play their best tennis, we have to believe, although most would agree other finals have been of a higher quality.
In the last 24 of 25 women's singles finals at a major, the woman who won the first set won the bigger trophy. Not today and not in 2006, Steve Tignor tweeted. Li Na won the first set in her loss to Kim Clijsters in 2011. And that's what happened this evening.
There were massive numbers of unforced errors from both, but many more from Li Na: 57 to 28 . And there were 30 breaks of serve between the #1 and #6 seeds. Azarenka broke serve in the first game of all three sets, but never could hold the advantage. Li broke Azarenka three times in the first set, to win it on the third as Azarenka double faulted away the set.
Li was the one, though, that elevated character above tennis. She is the one who blinded the world with bravery and determination, after she not once but twice twisted her left ankle, the second time smacking her head on the court so hard her visor flew off as medics flew to her rescue and attended what could have been a concussion.
But funny Li Na sat up and smiled as the doctor moved her index finger from left to right to watch Li's eyes. Her second medical time out began. 'A legitimate time out,' L. Jon Wertheim tweeted.
Li Na was surprised to have reached the final, or so she said in her award's speech. She was pushed, and "Things not bad. I should shut up."
In her press conference she was asked why she fell down twice. Li said, "because I'm stupid," followed by laughter.
But to have suffered through two ankle bites and a head smack, and take it to three sets against the newly-crowned #1 player in the world and Australian Open champion was a magnificent display of fortitude, adrenalin surges, and hunger for victory.
Li will be 32 next month. She told the press she was happy about her tennis, and mentioned how Maria Sharapova, Ana Ivanovic and herself lost the Australian Open and went on to win Roland Garros in 2011. Her age, though, still provoked a question about retirement.
"When I can't play I will stop," she said. "You never know. When I wake up and I can't move any more I will retire."
You can bet Victoria Azarenka will not contemplate retirement, at the young age of 23. She has proven herself as best in the world, if not the most well liked.
She, too, should be given credit for courage and determination.
Her performance over the two weeks was not first rate yet she played through to her second Slam title. Trying to close out a match against the crowd favorite and a multi-injured comic relief called for a mental toughness the strength of a vault. To have kept composed and swing out took guts.
Like her friends said, "You deserve this."

Q: Unable to set my own directory, and my own site using apache2 in ubuntu server 18.04 I'm using apache2 in a virtual machine with ubuntu server 18.04, everything is going fine, i can see through my PC the welcome page of apache, the server (the virtual machine) and my PC does ping correctly, however, i have a problem.
I need to use this for set up a custom website, i make my .conf site in /etc/apache2/sites-available/gguerrero.conf
then, inside this gguerrero.conf i put the following lanes:
DocumentRoot /var/www/gguerrero
Alias /gguerrero/var/www/gguerrero
<Directory /var/www/gguerrero/>
Options None
AllowOverride None
order allow,deny
allow from all</Directory>

After this, i enable the site using a2ensite gguerrero and its enabled correctly, but when i type in my web browser http://localhost/gguerrero it just gives me a 'cannot connect' error or something like this, however, if i type 192.168.1.38 (the IP of the ubuntu server running apache2), i get the default site, showing me the apache screen, and it works, but for some reason my server only takes the /var/www/html directory, wich the default site (apache default site) is inside, instead of take the directory var/www/gguerrero with the gguerrero page i made, and it does not work.
Thanks for the help, i appreaciate it.

The default configured VM works on a bridge network not localhost. The only way to access it is through the VMs IP from within the host.

my server only takes the /var/www/html directory, wich the default site (apache default site) is inside, instead of take the directory var/www/gguerrero

Did you restart Apache after making the config changes?


The safest way to buy second-hand car parts and salvaged vehicles is by getting in touch with the seller directly and talking in person to review the material you are going to purchase. We advise you that you make sure that the piece you are interested in is exactly the one that matches your vehicle model and its year of manufacture. It is a great idea to ask the seller for more photos of the spares so you do not waste your time and money. Here you will find the Chrysler Sebring for sale by our visitor (complete or by parts) with their corresponding photographs and the info you need.
4 door auto.v6 light blue black leather seats. Head gaskets blown head may be cracked.2 flat tires on passenger side.
Cosmetic damage in front still runs. Convertible GTC silver not missing any parts less than 100000 miles. Strong motor.
2002 Chrysler Seabring coverable,runs good bodys stright and inside is clean. Only thing itj needs is a head gasket.
It's a Chrysler Sebring I'm just trying to sell my car because I got a new one and have no use for it.
Car runs just need a lil love and care need a map sensor and a oxygen sensor and a paint job and that's about it.
Our website allows you to talk directly with the seller of the used pieces you want. This way you can be sure they work perfectly and they will be 100% functional with your vehicle. It can also be interesting for you because, usually, you can convince a reluctant user to sell you a particular part, or maybe lower a little the price if it seems expensive.
As you can imagine, the users of our website are free to set the price they want to their second-hand autos and their scrapping parts. Here is the law of supply and demand that reigns. So they are in their right to put the price they believe more suitable, but also you can reject it or negotiate it to agree. The best way to proceed is: once you have seen the price requested by the seller, locate the price of the new part or even go to a salvage yard to compare and establish what price is right to you. When you have decided the maximum you would pay, it is time to talk to the seller and negotiate in a civilized way.
Want to sell your Chrysler Sebring?
Do you own an auto that does not start and you do not decide to take it to the salvage yard because you think that they will not give you enough money? Press the button below these lines and sell it to another visitor of this website, it is really simple!


I see you there, hustling for your biz while your little ones are napping.
Playing entrepreneur one minute, and mama the next.
It can be a real struggle to find some sort of balance, amiright?
And even more likely, you are feeling some serious overwhelm tryin' to do everything under the sun for your biz to be successful.
What if I told you that you could grow a successful biz, without it taking over your life? Ready to beat the entrepreneurial overwhelm? Here's how.
Why did I start my biz?
Who does my biz help & why is that important to me?
What do I want my biz to become?
What will my biz look like when I can finally say "I've made it" & truly mean it?
Think about which of these answers motivates you the most, maybe it's more than one, or even all of them. Take the most motivating ones, and put them up somewhere that you can see every time you start to work.
Don't have a desk? If you work out of your laptop, slap a post-it on there.
Nothing is worst than sitting down to work on something that is so central to your biz, only to be pulled away by a nagging thought.
This is especially hard when your brain convinces you that this thing you forgot is super urgent & must be dealt with immediately, when it could have actually waited.
The reason your brain does that is that it's afraid you're gonna forget again… So how can you get a handle on those pesky reminders that come at the worst times?
Use a Brain Dump to capture all of those reminders, ideas, future goals, everything. No matter how small or how detailed, throw it into your brain dump and let your mind get back to work.
Start each day you work by quickly reviewing your daily goals.
Now, these daily goals are not things like posting on social media or answering emails, although don't get me wrong, those things are important.
These daily goals should be focused on pushing your biz forward to reach your dream biz. They should be little, bit size daily chunks, of your weekly, monthly, and quarterly goals.
Need help getting there? Grab a printable biz planner & get started.
Know your daily goals, and forget the rest.
If other things pop into your brain, toss 'em down into your Brain Dump.
Not feeling motivated? Remind your self why these tasks are important for growing your biz, who you are helping, and how this will impact the world.
Do you feel overwhelmed as an entrepreneur? What do you do to fight it? Let me know in the comments.
Let me know if you have any questions about fighting overwhelm or anything else in this post.


Cousin to the slightly smaller Piping Plover and the ubiquitous, double-striped Killdeer, the handsome species that is the subject of this post is the Semipalmated Plover. Semipalmated refers to this bird's semi-webbed toes.
I find it interesting that these birds are typically tolerant of feeding among other shorebird species such as Piping plovers and Peep Sandpipers, but will not tolerate conspecifics during migration, aggressively defending a feeding territory.
I have read it described that the Semipalmated Plover is the color of wet sand, while its similar looking cousin, the Piping Plover, is the color of dry sand. Stay tuned next time we visit Quivira NWR when I plan on showcasing this species.
Great shots of these rarer shorebirds.


If you're looking for a Christmas magician for a corporate party, you may find this page more useful to you.
Then I assume you're arranging a more intimate affair. Something with a few friends? Maybe you're getting all of the family together for a big celebration? I'm intrigued. Tell me more!
Whatever the specifics, you are tempted by the idea of a Christmas magician. It's a great idea! I may be very slightly biassed, but I really can't think of anything better. If you're bringing people together, then every gathering needs some oil to get the wheels in motion for a great celebration. That's exactly what an entertainer can do for a party. And when friends and family come together, nothing compares to the intimate performance of a close up magician.
In my work as a Christmas magician, it's lovely to be invited to these occasions. You can feel the warmth and good will in the room. Everyone is there to have a good time.
I'd love to tell you exactly how my magic could be incorporated into your plans, but I don't know your plans yet!
It could be that mix and mingle magic would be the best idea for you.
If there's a sit down meal planned, maybe table magic would be the best option?
Often with guests who know each other well, cabaret magic works very well. A performance for everyone at once.
It could be that a combination of two of the above styles of magic would work best for you.
I'm very happy to discuss the options! You don't book a Christmas magician every day. Please feel free to call upon my experience. Together, we'll work out the best possible entertainment for your celebration.

TennCare Block Grant Waiver Approved
More than a year after submitting Amendment 42 to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) requesting a waiver to increase flexibility in the administration of the state's Medicaid program, Tennessee has received an affirmative nod to move forward.
In November 2019, the state submitted a modified block grant to CMS to innovate the TennCare program. "We have made good on a commitment toward modernizing our health system," stated Governor Bill Lee. "I said from the beginning we would only accept a deal that is good for Tennessee and Tennesseans, and I believe we have done just that. This is an important, historic day for Tennessee."
Lee noted with the new flexibility, the state would have the opportunity to gain additional federal funding through shared savings without sacrificing eligibility, services or provider rates. "Today's agreement represents a continuation of Tennessee's commitment to innovate, lead and improve," he said. "We have sought to fundamentally change an outdated and ineffective Medicaid financing system that incentivizes states to spend more taxpayer dollars rather than rewarding states for value, quality and efficiency. Our approved plan will create an unprecedented opportunity for Tennessee to be rewarded for its successful administration of TennCare and further improve the health of TennCare members and Tennessee communities with that reward."
On a call today with reporters, CMS Administrator Seema Verma stressed the waiver, approved for 10 years, is structured to ensure the state doesn't benefit from cutting enrollment or services to achieve savings. "Tennessee may only supplement ... and not reduce ... benefits from where they are today," she explained. If Tennessee, which has traditionally spent less that other states in administering the Medicaid program, continues on that trajectory while meeting quality targets, the savings would be shared with the state to reinvest in programming to address items including maternal health coverage enhancement, social determinants of health, more quickly serving those with intellectual and developmental disabilities and the ability to address state-specific health issues.
Verma noted, "The TennCare III demonstration builds on all the good ideas that have been out there around a new financing model for Medicaid but addresses many of the most prominent concerns. This groundbreaking wavier puts guardrails in place to ensure appropriate oversight and protections for beneficiaries, while also creating incentives for states to manage costs while holding them accountable for improving access, quality and health outcomes. It's no exaggeration to say that this carefully crafted demonstration could be a national model moving forward."
With the approval coming just 12 days before President-Elect Joe Biden takes office, the governor and administrator were asked if the waiver could be quickly revoked. "We've shown partnership is a better model than dependence," said Lee. "I think it would be a mistake to backtrack on a modernized approach. I don't expect that to happen."
Similarly, Verma said the move towards this type of innovation spanned more than one administration, and she noted the waiver was carefully vetted by career staff. "I think this program should not be subject to political whims," she said. However, Verma admitted, the new Health and Human Services Secretary does hold the right to approve, deny or terminate waivers. The state would have the opportunity to appeal a termination decision if it were to happen.
Nashville Medical News plans to take a deeper dive into TennCare III and what it means for patients, providers and the state in our February/March print edition.

FilmL.A. President Urges Governor to Sign Extension of Film Incentive to Create Jobs, Preserve Industry
FilmLA September 20, 2011 For Communities, For Filmmakers, News Releases, ResearchLeave a Comment
Late last week, following the lead of Los Angeles City Councilman Paul Krekorian, FilmL.A. President Paul Audley sent Governor Brown a letter of his own urging him to sign AB1069, which extends the California Film & Television Tax Credit by an additional year. The content of that letter is reprinted below. To see a copy of the original letter sent to the Governor's Office, click on the following: FilmL.A. letter to Governor Brown re: AB1069.
As we have said on many occasions, writing a personal letter is one of the most important and effective actions concerned citizens can take to get their elected officials to respond on an issue. Elected leaders are 1000% more likely to take notice of, and respond to, consituents who take the time to write a letter of their own over those who send generic form letters through email and fax or online petitions with thousands of names. In order to get elected officials to care about an issue, they have to see the voters care too.
Underneath Mr. Audley's letter, check out the embedded YouTube video of his remarks at a filmmaking roundtable about some of the inititives Los Angeles has taken to make the city more film friendly.
The Honorable Edmund G. Brown Jr.
State Capitol, Governor's Office
Re: AB 1069- REASONS TO SUPPORT
Dear Governor Brown:
Soon, you will be asked to consider signing AB 1069, a one-year extension of the California Film & Television Tax Credit, into law. I'm writing to share what we have learned about this program's record of creating jobs in California.
When California's film incentive appeared in 2009, it could not have come at a more urgent time. By then, fewer than 4 in 10 studio features were made in the state, down from 7 in 10 just six years earlier.
That same year, the number of permitted production days for feature films made in Los Angeles reached a historical low of 4,976, down more than 64 percent from our peak year in 1996. It seemed as if California had virtually lost its hold on one of its signature industries. Fortunately, when the Film and Television Tax Credit was introduced, we saw a resurgence of interest in filming in California from filmmakers.
In 2010, on-location feature filming in L.A. saw its first year-over-year increase after years of decline. Films that qualified for California's incentive comprised 26 percent of ll permitted production days in the Los Angeles area, preventing 2010 from becoming the worst year on record for moviemaking in L.A.
Moreover, according to data provided last year by the California Film Commission, the incentive created more than 20,040 full-time equivalent jobs. To date, incentivized productions have paid out $1 billion in wages to state residents (below-the-line, middle class workers — not studio executives). They have also injected nearly $3 billion in aggregate production spending into the private economy and communities throughout the state.
Perhaps most importantly, the Los Angeles County Economic Development Corporation (LAEDC) recently found that for each dollar California spends on the credit, $1.13 in new revenue is returned to state and local governments.
The effectiveness of the Film & Television Tax Credit Program at retaining an incredibly mobile California industry, while preserving tens of thousands of high-wage, middle class jobs and the state's tax base, is astonishing.
I hope that you will consider these facts as you weigh your decision on AB1 069.
Sincere regards,
Paul Audley, FilmL.A.
