Module Monday: Menu Position
It's a word that can strike fear into the heart of the bravest site builder: Breadcrumbs. Manage them well, and you'll give visitors a helpful visual indicator of where they're at in your site. Miss a detail, and the weird inconsistencies will be more confusing than no breadcrumbs at all. The challenges stem from Drupal's "flat hierarchy" -- by default, almost all pages (including every node you create) live just beneath the home page itself in an undifferentiated pool of content. All of the visual cues it sends to visitors (breadcrumb trails, highlighted parent items in the navigation menus, and so on) start with that assumption until you override them. That's where the Menu Position module helps out. It lets you set up simple rules that tell Drupal where each node type should go in the site's hierarchy, then handles all of the frustrating details automatically.
The module's operation is simple and straightforward. Site administrators can set up simple rules describing certain pools of content -- nodes of type 'Blog,' articles tagged with 'Star Wars,' and so on -- then assign them to a particular parent menu item. From that point on, the rule will ensure that matching nodes get the proper breadcrumb trail, highlighted menu trails, and so on. Multiple rules can be active at once, positioning different pools of content in their proper home. It's a much more efficient approach than positioning each node underneath a parent item manually, and there's no performance slowdown if your site sports thousands (or hundreds of thousands) of nodes.
Menu Position was created by John Albin, the author of the popular Menu Block module. He's well-versed in the frustrations that come with wrangling menu items and breadcrumbs, and the module is polished and straightforward. The only downside is that items must be children of an actual Drupal menu item. If you'd like article nodes to appear as if they're the children of a complex contextual-filter-driven view, for example, additional modules like Path Breadcrumbs might be necessary. For the vast majority of sites, though, Menu Position module does the job smashingly, and with a minimum of hassle.
There is a Menu Position video on Drupalize.Me which shows how to use this module.

With a wide range of activities and options, this North American nation is a popular destination for travelers from all over the world. It features a strong tourism infrastructure as well; hotels are plentiful and packed with amenities, while there are also some spectacular villas in Mexico for rent.
There's everything from stunning Caribbean beaches to bustling metropolitan areas, with a rich cultural tradition permeating throughout. Here we'll highlight some of the country's fascinating annual festivals to help with the timing of your next trip.
Each July, on two consecutive Mondays, the state of Oaxaca hosts this terrific festival of folk music, dance, and culture. Guelaguetza comes from the Zapotec Indian language, and means offering or gift. The celebration dates back to pre-Columbian times, when this area's indigenous people gathered together to honor the corn goddess Centeotl in hopes of a bountiful harvest.
Running from October 3-21 in Guanajuato, this international arts festival is one of the country's most important cultural festivals. It's a grand showcase of both national and international artists in tribute to author Miguel de Cervantes (Don Quixote). There's a whole range of artistic and cultural events, from art exhibitions to music and dance performances.
This literally translates to "Days of The Dead", but this autumn festival is actually a celebration of both life and death. A merging of Catholic and Aztec practices, it honors the spirits of family ancestors. Spirits of children are thought to return on November 1, while those of adults return the following day, November 2.
Life and death are equally embraced through music, food, and costumed celebrations. Altars are built, and cemeteries are visited and decorated. Papier mache sculptures are made to portray the dead in everyday situations, and comedy plays a big role in these depictions.
This Catholic holiday on December 12 is one of the most important dates on the Mexican calendar. Our Lady of Guadalupe is Mexico's patron saint, and this is a holy day of family feasts, music, and spiritual dance. It is celebrated nationwide, with the major event being a pilgrimage made by thousands from all over the country to the Basilica of Guadalupe in Mexico City.

Former Sunderland and Brighton and Hove Albion player praises Bognor Regis Town for part they played in kick-starting his career
Crawley Town defender Joel Lynch has praised Bognor Regis Town for the part they played in kick-starting his professional career.
By Mark Dunford
The 34-year-old defender, who has just signed a new 18-month contract at Crawley Town, grew up in Eastbourne and was signed by Brighton's youth academy in 2003.
He was loaned to the Rocks and made his debut at Nyewood Lane on August 13 2005 in a 2-0 defeat at home to Yeading in Conference South.
He played in the first fourteen games of that season, 12 in the league and both FA Cup ties against Basingstoke. He then played one further match, making 15 in total, on Boxing Day 2005, a 1-0 defeat at home to Havant & Waterlooville.

SEE ALSO This is why Crawley Town boss John Yems is 'the best person in football', according to defender Joel Lynch | 'To be given this opportunity and to be so welcomed is the best thing' - Former Sunderland, Brighton and Hove Albion and QPR defender on signing a new contract at Crawley Town
He was on loan at the same time as former Albion, Bournemouth and Aston Villa player Tommy Elphick. While at Brighton, Lynch also played with former Red Dean Cox and current Hastings United manager Gary Elphick.
And Lynch, who also played for Nottingham Forest, QPR and Huddersfield Town in his career, believes that experience helped mould him as a player and recommends all youngsters at professional clubs get that experience.
He said: "When I was at Brighton they loaned me out to Bognor Regis Town and that was massive for me. It's massive for young lads at the minute to get that experience. I was only 15 or 16 maybe and I was playing men's football and I kicked on and went straight into the first team form there."
"Youngsters should get that experience, especially the way the game is now.
"At Crawley we have a lot of young lads in the squad and they are there waiting, desperate to get into the first. But sometimes the timing is not right and for us not having a 23s and a league they can play in, they can't get games, it's tough for them.
"I would advise any youngsters lucky to have a contract at a professional club they need to play games to get out and get experience and get used to the men's game.
"The 23s game is completely different to the men's game - for example the game we played against Tottenham u23s last week was completely different to a League Two game.
"To get that experience is vital."

Q: flutter_downloader download huge video to application directory with progress I want to download video in flutter with progress indicator. I know video will be huge so its better to use flutter_downloader. I tried what is told here. But I am unable to achieve what I want.
The  FlutterDownloader.enqueue method does nothing (it seems). No download notification on any logs.
I want to add the progress a stream which I have used for a stream builder.
 ReceivePort _port = ReceivePort();
      IsolateNameServer.registerPortWithName(
          _port.sendPort, 'downloader_send_port');
      _port.listen((dynamic data) {
        print('UI isolate callbac: $data');
        String id = data[0];
        DownloadTaskStatus status = data[1];
        int progress = data[2];

        progressStream.add(progress.toDouble());
      }).onDone(() {

        Fluttertoast.showToast(msg: "Video downloaded");

        progressStream.close();

        IsolateNameServer.removePortNameMapping('downloader_send_port');
      });

Then I have requested the download with enqueue method
 final taskId = await FlutterDownloader.enqueue(
      url:
          'http://barbra-coco.dyndns.org/student/learning_android_studio.pdf',
      savedDir: (await getExternalStorageDirectory())!.path +
          Platform.pathSeparator +
          folder,
      fileName: title,
      showNotification:
          true,
      openFileFromNotification:
          false,
    );

This is the downloadCallback method
  static void downloadCallback(
  String id, DownloadTaskStatus status, int progress) {
print(
    'Background Isolate Callback: task ($id) is in status ($status) and process ($progress)');
final SendPort? send =
    IsolateNameServer.lookupPortByName('downloader_send_port');
send!.send([id, status, progress]);
}

I get rejected from stuff* at John Jay all the time.
Thank you for participating in the [name redacted] interview process. We regret to relay that we are unable to offer you the [position]. We had an incredibly rich pool of applicants this year. We appreciate the time you took to apply and were excited to hear more about your interests. It was a difficult decision considering your experiences.
This is all to say that we're sorry we are not moving forward with your application at this time and that, if you still will be at John Jay in [the next year], we encourage you to reapply. We wish you the best of luck in your time at John Jay and thank you for your interest in the [name redacted].
I applied to the same program the next year and got virtually the same letter. I applied, was interviewed, and rejected twice. Two times I was rejected. By the same organization. I was rejected twice by them. Rejected. Twice.
Maybe I lied a little earlier. Sometimes a "no" at John Jay really does mean "no."
Rejection feels like losing. I hate to lose. Losing makes me sick. But one of my advisors once told us that yes, her resume was impressive and she had a bunch of things on it. But if we'd seen how many programs she'd been rejected from over the years, we'd have a completely different perspective on what success looks like.
Getting into programs at school is like auditioning. You might not always get the part, even if you have a pretty good audition. Sometimes you're just not right for the part. I wrote an application I was incredibly proud of for a program, and sat with them for an interview. I must have had it's in the bag written all over my face, because the directors told me outright they were concerned that I was doing too much stuff around the school and that they were worried I wouldn't be able to commit fully to the program. (That was a snap judgment of theirs. I commit to everything I do.) Nothing I could have said would have persuaded them to think otherwise. What could I do? The odds were stacked up against me before I'd even walked into the room.
I used take rejection very personally. They don't like me. I'm not good enough. I'm never going to apply for anything ever again. It's way easier to wallow in the thought of "they don't like me" than it is to apply to other stuff. Wallowing feels excellent, and you are allowed to wallow for a little while.
I don't do that anymore; take rejection so personally, that is. (I, like you, am allowed an occasional wallow.) It took some practice, but I got better at being comfortable with not being the right fit for things. Sometimes I just wasn't. I applied for a particular lab that focused on false confessions, but the lab was experimental and my work is largely clinical. Our interests clashed, and no amount of forcing on my part would have made me perfect for that lab. Instead I found someone who looked at false confessions from a clinical perspective.
You've been rejected. It's time to stop wallowing. Now you can add "rejection" to your list of experiences. That's the kind of stuff that builds character - didn't you know?
* Stuff includes scholarships, fellowships, psych labs, special programs...anything you can get rejected from. I've been rejected from it all.
** We hadn't even started the work yet, so while I wasn't technically in it, the rejection still stung quite a bit.

PURE CONSPIRACY IN AURORA SHOOTING
Posted by George Freund on January 6, 2013 at 9:05 AM
Something happened over the last few days. The world of CONSPIRACY and the world of managed news collided. It was not a MAJOR story. In fact it garnered very little attention. What happened is the movie prop of Gotham City in the Batman film received center stage. In this circle the image of Sandy Hook on the map with the corresponding 28 red marks for each victim by age, gender and position was a leading issue. Another individual observed the name of the next target by STRIKE ZONE 2. It corresponds by name and lay of the land with a real place the Narrows. Local police have placed the school under extremely close scrutiny. The school board closed it. This should be the talk of the national media, but it isn't. They can't tell you the map may well be the work of a serial massacre ring or even imply it. I can.
As soon as the story broke, I felt there would be a serious elimination of potential suspects. Should we be surprised there was another mass shooting in Aurora, Colorado scene of the theatre masscre last year? NO! My first thought was they got rid of the cartographer (map maker). The alleged killer, Sonny Archuleta, was a graphic artist. He was identified by his neighbour, Melissa Wright, who was a nurse who treated victims of the mass theatre shooting. She hit the floor FAST!
It was reported the victims were already dead when the gunman was reported to police at 3 a.m. That leaves us with the possibility he didn't shoot them. He may have entered a crime scene. He was held in a hostage situation until shot and killed by police at about 9 a.m. The victims were related to the alleged shooter. They were reported to be his father-in-law, Anthony Ticali, his sister-in-law, Stacie Philbrook, and her boyfriend.
It is further reported that Sonny was on a four day methamphetamine binge. If Sonny was the artist involved in the Gotham City map under consideration by police in school shootings that could have caused him some anxiety because it was about four days ago that the details were made public. Sonny had a record for weapons offences. His brother, Patricio Archuleta, was murdered in Denver in September 2011. What is really strange is that the man arrested for killing him never had his photo released by police. The man, Luis Meza, even led police on a car chase after the event. Meza has a record of weapons and violence as did Patricio. After the arrest his cybertrail goes cold. He seems to disappear off the radar. He does seem to be a taking care of business kind of guy however. You wouldn't want to run into him in a dark theatre.
Now things get really, really screwy real fast. On Sonny's LinkedIn page we see his C.V. in the graphic arts. Remember we need someone like that to make the Gotham City map. On that page we get LinkedIn to the military industrial complex. He ran a clothing company for children with his wife Stephanie the lone survivor.
Under ORGANIZATIONS we have WOLCC. That starts the ride of your life and the end of his. LinkedIn are a company called OCEANIT and a U.S. Army Information Technology Specialist. You CANNOT believe what they do at OCEANIT. They can time release drugs into your body accounting for a methamphetamine binge or even an SSRI waste away. They can make Mission Impossible possible. I digress.
They may or may not know Sonny, but they belong to WOLCC. If they do know Sonny, you could very well have a serious covert action team for Mission Impossible. Oceanit can do everything. Let's look.
They can MAP!
They can WATCH from space.
They can run a very sophisticated MISSION IMPOSSIBLE.
They can command and control communications.
The can handle enormous amounts of data.
They can time release drugs in a way to control the modern Manchurian Candidate.
They can manage what is seen and not heard. An IT Systems Specialist from the U.S. Army would be icing on the cake. If I were to write a thriller crime novel this would have all the ingredients. However, so far it is just CONSPIRACY, but what a good one. The media are again clouding the faces of the major parties involved, but they still reveal much. As a case in point the photo of Sonny has an interesting similarity with one of the Sandy Hook victims Dylan Hockley. Maybe it is just an impression from the TWILIGHT LANGUAGE setting up a cause and effect relationship.
Sonny Archuleta MySpace photo
Take heed of the Flat Iron Building in New York. There were possible STRIKE ZONES in New York. Both the Success Academy and P.S. 33 are in the vicinity of the Flatiron Building. Success Academy was even described on a page called Gotham Schools. It is cause for concern. If Sonny is our man, the map and the picture in the background jive.

St Johns ChurchThis Church stands on the Gandhi Chowk. This Church was the first to be built after the town of Dalhousie was founded. Prior to 1863 a wooden structure stood at this place. The idea to build a stone structure took birth with the arrival of Rev. John H. Pratt who came to Dalhousie on 11-04-1863 and inspired the Christian community to build a permanent church building at this place. Building of this church is a copy of Roman Catholics Church of England but this church belongs to Protestants.
This Catholic Church is a very prominent monument on the Subhash Chowk. This Church was built in the year 1894 from the contributions made by Army and Civil Officers and Civilians.

Trump Calls for Daylight Saving Time to Be 'Permanent' in the US
President says he wants clocks to Spring forward permanently this year
on&nbsp11th March 2019 @ 7.00pm
President Trump says he's happy for Daylight Saving Time to become permanent in the US
Presdient Donald Trump has called for Daylight Saving Time to be made "permanent" after the clocks moved forward for the Summer over the weekend.
Just like everybody else, President Trump is seemingly tired of changing the clocks as most of America comes off the back of a sleep-deprived weekend after setting their clocks to "Spring forward" on Sunday.
Trump tweeted that he's "O.K." with making Daylight Saving Time "permanent," with Americans not having to set their clocks to "Fall back" come October.
"Making Daylight Saving Time permanent is O.K. with me!" Trump tweeted Monday.
Making Daylight Saving Time permanent is O.K. with me!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 11, 2019
Changing the clocks twice a year is an unpopular law for many and is constantly debated
According to Fox News, the president's tweet came at the start of 2019's Daylight Saving Time, which begins each year on the second Sunday in March, starting at 2 a.m.
Changing the clocks forward means everyone loses an hour of sleep but gains an hour of evening daylight through to the fall when the clocks are turned back.
The law was first established during World War I as "a way of conserving fuel needed for war industries and of extending the working day," according to the Library of Congress.
But it was only temporary – the law was repealed as soon as the war was over.
But the issue of daylight saving emerged again during World War II.
On Jan. 20, 1942, Congress re-established daylight saving time.
More than 20 years later, in 1966, former President Lyndon B. Johnson signed into law the Uniform Time Act, declaring daylight saving time a policy of the U.S. and establishing uniform start and end times within standard time zones.
The policy is regulated by the Department of Transportation.
An old campaign poster calling for Daylight Saving Time to be made national law
But not all states participate. Hawaii, most of Arizona and several U.S. territories—including American Samoa, Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands—do not observe daylight saving time.
The president would need to work with Congress in order to repeal the 1966 Johnson-era law.
Republican Florida Sens. Marco Rubio and Rick Scott filed a bill last week to extend daylight saving time for the entire year, called the Sunshine Protection Act.
The Florida legislature voted last year to adopt the measure, but in order for it to take effect, Congress must change the federal law, and Trump must sign it.
His Monday morning tweet seemed to signal that should such a proposal make it to his desk, he would do so.
The topic has caused a nationwide debate since its inception, with many arguing the policy is unnecessary and disturbs sleep patterns.
Supporters say it saves energy because people tend to spend more time outside when it's lighter out.
The DOT claims it also "saves lives and prevents traffic injuries," because visibility is better.

Is your organization one of the many relying more and more on mobile devices for email every day? If you answered yes, have you considered whether the same level of protection is applied to information leaving the organization via mobile devices or web browsers, compared to the desktop?
Work and desktop computers should have the strongest defenses against accidental data breaches – like forgetting to clean metadata from attachments. But it's just as important that these security solutions cover emails sent from mobiles or Outlook Web Access as well. Don't let an email slip through the cracks and cause a breach. Discover a unified approach to metadata management on any device.
Metadata management on the server and desktop is a unified approach to managing a common cause of inadvertent data breaches.
Files sent outside the organization should be wiped of hidden metadata that reveals a person's identity – such as the author, collaborator, or client.
cleanDocs on the desktop and cleanDocs server work together to clean files of metadata from all outbound email traffic, including emails sent from mobile devices, Outlook Web Access, and any other email-enabled application.
cleanDocs server allows mobile users to interact with cleaning policies to make educated choices. Users can input passwords when required to ensure documents are cleaned immediately.
Emails sent from mobile devices or tablets and cleaned by cleanDocs server are synchronized with the user's Sent Items folder, so they know the message has been sent and have a copy for their own records.
Worry less about data breaches with a unified and comprehensive approach to metadata management. Take control of what it sent outside the organization today.

Ear reshaping or ear pinning (otoplasty) is most often performed by Dr. Wolfeld to reposition prominent or protruding ears closer to the head. Ears that appear to stick out or are overly large can be helped by ear surgery. For the most part, the operation is done on children between the ages of four and 14. Ears are almost fully grown by four to six years of age, and the earlier the surgery, the less teasing and ridicule the child will have to endure. Dr. Wolfeld also frequently performs ear surgery on adults and there are generally no additional risks associated with ear surgery on an older patient.
The procedure will consist of Dr. Wolfeld making a small incision in the back of the ear to expose the ear cartilage. Dr. Wolfeld will then sculpt the cartilage and bend it back toward the head. Dissolvable stitches will be used to help maintain the new shape. In most cases, ear surgery will leave a faint scar in the back of the ear that will fade with time. Even when only one ear appears to protrude, surgery is usually performed on both ears for a better balance. Ear reshaping is usually performed on an outpatient basis and takes about two hours. Any activity in which the ear might be bent should be avoided for a month or so. Most adults can go back to work about five days after surgery. Children can go back to school after seven days or so, if they are careful about playground activity. The patient's head will be wrapped in a bulky bandage immediately following surgery to promote the best molding and healing. The ears may throb or ache a little for a few days, but this can be relieved by medication.
Most patients, young and old alike, are thrilled with the results of ear surgery. Dr. Wolfeld will be available to you, to answer any questions that may arise, during the pre and post operative period. Because the visual and psychological improvement following the operation is usually dramatic, it is often very rewarding to the patient and the doctor. If you are considering an ear reshaping procedure, you may schedule a private consultation with Dr. Wolfeld by calling 212-281-1000.

Q: Comparing two different text files and replacing similar words I started learning Java recently and I need to compare 1000 words in a text file and a thesaurus text file. Each line in the thesaurus text file has words that are similar and contains one word each line from the 1000 words which are on one line each. Each word in the thesaurus is separated by a comma. I think I nearly have it. What I need to do i next is check if a word is contained in the thesaurus and if it is, map that line of words in the thesaurus to the the word in the 1000 words text file and im not sure how to do that.
package ie.gmit.sw;

import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;

public class Parser {
    private Map<String, String>map = new TreeMap<>();
    private Collection<String>google = new TreeSet<>();

    public void parseGoogle(String file) throws IOException
    {

        BufferedReader brGoogle = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("google-1000.txt"));

        String word = null;

        while((word = brGoogle.readLine())!= null)
        {
            google.add(word);
        }

        brGoogle.close();

    }//parseGoogle

    public void parse(String file)throws IOException
    {
        BufferedReader brMoby = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("MobyThesaurus2.txt"));

        String line = null;

        while((line = brMoby.readLine())!= null)
        {
            String[] words = line.split(",");

        }

    }

    public String[] getGoogleWord(String[] words) {
        if(google.contains(words))
        {

        }
        return words;
    }

}//class Parser

A: Example implementation of the mapper:
import java.util.*;
import java.util.stream.Collectors;

  public Map<String, List<String>> mapWordsToThesaurus(Set<String> words, Set<String> thesaurus) {
    Map<String, List<String>> result = new HashMap<>();
    words.forEach(
        word ->
            result.put(
                word,
                thesaurus.stream()
                    .filter(line -> line.contains(word))
                    .collect(Collectors.toList())));
    return result;
  }


Two days passed between Brezhnev's death and the announcement of the election of Andropov as the new general secretary, suggesting to many outsiders that a power struggle had occurred in the Kremlin. Once in power, however, Andropov wasted no time in promoting his supporters. In June 1983, he assumed the post of chairman of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet, thus becoming the ceremonial head of state. Brezhnev had needed thirteen years to acquire this post. During his short rule, Andropov replaced more than one-fifth of the Soviet ministers and regional party first secretaries and more than one-third of the department heads within the Central Committee apparatus. But Andropov's ability to reshape the top leadership was constrained by his poor health and the influence of his rival Chernenko, who had previously supervised personnel matters in the Central Committee.
In foreign affairs, Andropov continued Brezhnev's policy of projecting Soviet power around the world. United States-Soviet relations, already poor since the late 1970s, began deteriorating more rapidly in March 1983, when President Ronald W. Reagan described the Soviet Union as an "evil empire . . . the focus of evil in the modern world," and Soviet spokesmen responded by attacking Reagan's "bellicose, lunatic anticommunism." In September 1983, the downing of a South Korean passenger airplane by a Soviet jet fighter resulted in the deaths of many United States citizens and further chilled United States-Soviet relations. United States-Soviet arms control talks on intermediate-range nuclear weapons in Europe were suspended by the Soviet Union in November 1983 in response to the beginning of United States deployments of intermediate-range nuclear weapons in Europe. The next month, Soviet officials also walked out of negotiations on reducing the number of strategic nuclear weapons.
Andropov's domestic policy leaned heavily toward restoring discipline and order to Soviet society. He eschewed radical political and economic reforms, promoting instead a small degree of candor in politics and mild economic experiments similar to those that had been associated with Kosygin in the mid-1960s. In tandem with such economic experiments, Andropov launched an anticorruption drive that reached high into the government and party ranks. Andropov also tried to boost labor discipline. Throughout the country, police stopped and questioned people in parks, public baths, and shops during working hours in an effort to reduce the rate of job absenteeism.
The poor state of Chernenko's health made the question of succession an acute one. Chernenko gave Gorbachev high party positions that provided significant influence in the Politburo, and Gorbachev was able to gain the vital support of Foreign Minister Andrey Gromyko in the struggle for succession. When Chernenko died in March 1985, Gorbachev was well positioned to assume power.
At seventy-two, Konstantin Chernenko was in poor health and unable to play an active role in policy making when he was chosen, after lengthy discussion, to succeed Andropov. But Chernenko's short time in office did bring some significant policy changes. The personnel changes and investigations into corruption undertaken by the Andropov regime came to an end. Chernenko advocated more investment in consumer goods and services and in agriculture. He also called for a reduction in the CPSU's micromanagement of the economy and greater attention to public opinion. However, KGB repression of Soviet dissidents also increased. Stalin was rehabilitated as a diplomat and a military leader, and there was discussion of returning the name Stalingrad to the city whose name had been changed back to Volgograd during the anti-Stalinist wave of the 1950s. The one major personnel change that Chernenko made was the firing of the chief of the General Staff, Nikolay Ogarkov, who had advocated less spending on consumer goods in favor of greater expenditures on weapons research and development.
By 1982 the decrepitude of the Soviet regime was obvious to the outside world, but the system was not yet ready for drastic change. The transition period that separated the Brezhnev and Gorbachev regimes resembled the former much more than the latter, although hints of reform emerged as early as 1983.
Although Chernenko had called for renewed détente with the West, little progress was made toward closing the rift in East-West relations during his rule. The Soviet Union boycotted the 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles, retaliating for the United States boycott of the 1980 Summer Olympics in Moscow. In the late summer of 1984, the Soviet Union also prevented a visit to West Germany by East German leader Erich Honecker. Fighting in Afghanistan also intensified, but in the late autumn of 1984 the United States and the Soviet Union did agree to resume arms control talks in early 1985.
Whether Andropov could have found a way out of the depths to which United States-Soviet relations had fallen, or whether he could have managed to lead the country out of its stagnation, will never be known. The Andropov regime was to last only fifteen months. The general secretary's health declined rapidly during the tense summer and fall of 1983, and he died in February 1984 after disappearing from public view for several months.
Andropov's most significant legacy to the Soviet Union was his discovery and promotion of Mikhail S. Gorbachev. Beginning in 1978, Gorbachev advanced in two years through the Kremlin hierarchy to full membership in the Politburo. His responsibilities for the appointment of personnel allowed him to make the contacts and distribute the favors necessary for a future bid to become general secretary. At this point, Western experts believed that Andropov was grooming Gorbachev as his successor. However, although Gorbachev acted as a deputy to the general secretary throughout Andropov's illness, Gorbachev's time had not yet arrived when his patron died early in 1984.

Special Needs Therapist Caught On Video Manhandling Child, MSF Investigating
The therapist was said to have been given only "verbal warning" after the complaint.
Updated as of 1 July 2020 at 6pm:
The therapist that allegedly manhandled boy with special needs is now sacked, according to AutismSTEP, a special education school that employed her at the time of incident.
According to an AutismSTEP spokesperson to Stomp, the organisation suspended the therapist immediately after they caught wind of the news, and eventually dismissed her on 30 March 2019.
In a statement, the organisation said that they apologised to the family together with the therapist, personally after the incident took place. They also alleged having provided monetary compensation before the footages were uploaded online.
Ali's family responded saying that they did not receive such monetary compensation from AutismSTEP however.
Instead, they asked for a refund of the course free from the school.
A mum wants to seek justice for her special needs son Ali—no action had been taken since the incident involving abuse by his home therapist that got away with only a 'verbal warning'.
The last time the alleged abuse incident took place was in March last year, according to the boy's mum, Safirah Oshin who took to a Facebook post to share her predicament.
Note: Distressing content ahead where videos involve scenes of rough handling of a child
She said despite making a "reappeal" and that the case was reopened in January 2020, their situation has not changed.
"REAPPEAL AND CASE REOPENED IN JANUARY '20 UP TILL NOW STILL NO JUSTICE FOR MY SON!!! (sic)" she wrote.
According to Change.org that held a petition to seek justice for Ali, Mdm Safirah had reached out to various relevant government agencies following the incident. However, she said no follow-ups had been taken.
The case involving the Home Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) therapist was closed after "given verbal warning".
Safirah explained that Ali has autism and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
Therapist Abused Special Needs Son
The post revealed CCTV footages of Ali being manhandled by the therapist where the therapist was seen to have held him by the neck at one point.

There were multiple counts of Ali trying to reach out and touch his therapist's face, only to be embroiled in a tussle.
She was seen grabbing his arm and forcing it onto his face.
The two videos that were uploaded by the mum are only part of the entire 40 minute-long video that was recorded.
Ali's cries can be heard throughout the video and was seen visibly distressed by the therapist's actions.
"MAKE THIS VIRAL! BE HIS VOICE!! HELP ME FIGHT FOR HIS RIGHTS!" his mum wrote.
I have decided to share this and post despite it being very painful to watch. Im not sure if IG will take it down but I want everyone to see the abuse and how this person should be banned and not get near our children. Listen with sound then you will hear how scared and distressed the child was. As a professional, if I can't handle my anger. I should leave the session and inform parents. Not hurt the child. Now I want this person to be banned from practice. @halimahyacob @mothershipsg @desmond.lee Video is posted with mom's permission. Please share and hashtag #JUSTICEFORALI
A post shared by AusömeTöts (@ausometots) on Jun 30, 2020 at 5:32am PDT
The mum's videos were reshared on Instagram with her permission, to call out the therapist's behaviour and "[wanting] this person to be banned from practice".
"I want everyone to see the abuse and how this person should be banned and not get near our children," wrote the ausometots account.
MSF Currently Investigating
As of 1 July 2020, the Ministry of Social and Family Development (MSF) has responded to Mdm Safirah's plea and are in contact with her regarding the case.
Netizens are also hoping to call on MSF to lead the effort in taking stronger action against the therapist, in a petition to help Ali seek justice.
Current Minister for Social and Family Development, Mr Desmond Lee, assured the public that this matter will be investigated.
"I don't have full details about this, but have asked that this matter be looked into thoroughly".
Tan Chuan Jin, who previously held the post of Minister for Social and Family Development also said that MSF was looking into the case and would investigate it.
Netizens Trying to Uncover Identity of Therapist
In light of the therapist's undesired actions that has inevitably caused trauma to Ali and family, angered netizens are seeking to uncover the therapist's identity.
Facebook User, Sharifah Syed Mohd, wrote that the lady therapist is a Taiwanese, said to have previously worked for an organisation called Autism STEP.
She also shared a screenshot of a conversation she had with a member from the organisation, after she demanded to know who the therapist was.

Autism STEP responded and wrote that they suspended the said therapist of immediate effect and conducted an internal investigation the next day. The therapist was dismissed thereafter on 30 March 2019.
However, the therapist went on to work independently, according to mum Linda Randall, who had engaged her therapy services for her son.
Linda however, alleged the possibility "that the video may be doctored". According to her, her son "likes [the therapist] a lot".
Many parents also questioned where Ali's parents had been during the therapy session.
While investigations are still ongoing, this incident reminds us of the need for proper screening and regulation when it comes to engaging professionals to care for our children.
While Ali and family have experienced much distress and trauma from this incident, we hope that authorities will be able to account for what has happened to them.

Unemployment among business-technology professionals has fallen to a decade low as the size of the IT workforce has risen to a record level in 2007, according to CIO Insight analysis of U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics data.
Joblessness among American IT workers averaged 2.1 percent last year, down from 2.5 percent in 2006. That's the lowest unemployment rate for IT pros since the government began using the current method to track employment in 2000, when IT joblessness stood at 2.2 percent.
In 2007, according to our analysis, 3,758,000 workers in the U.S. held IT jobs; another 79,000 people who consider themselves business-technology professionals were unemployed. IT employment grew 8.5 percent last year. By this calculation, IT managers and staffers represent nearly 2.6 percent of employed U.S. workers in 2007.
The low IT unemployment rate of 2.1 percent, which many economists considers full employment, bolsters an argument forwarded by many CIOs: it's hard to find qualified IT professionals.

A 20 lb bag of rice will fit perfectly into one.
Got 20 lbs of rice today and a lb of salt.
20 lbs bag of rice (weight) in a 5 gallon bucket (volume).
Take thyself back to math class!
I harvested sweet potatoes. Planted two patches of Turnip and Mustard greens. Dis-assembled crates that were made out of 2 x 4's from a window company to make a new chicken coop and a picnic table for the get away house.
Rotated out 10 gallons of emergency water with fresh.
Ordered 5 more 6 gallons buckets and mylar liners for a little food storing next weekend.
Checked GunBroker for any deals on 45 ACP ammo.
Transferred half my kerosene from the cans they came in to blue plastic cans. I heard that even the smallest amount of water in the kerosene could rust out the cans. I only transferred half because I wasn't quite convinced, but you never know. I'll check them more often then I was anyway.
Kept an ear on the business channels about the bailout and surfed the net looking for more information. For some reason, after I listened and read for a while, I went and loaded up a few more magazines for my rifle. It made me feel better for some strange reason.
Wel this is a retro-active listing. I bought 15 lbs of rice (I do not have a container for them yet and I am wondering if one my my 6 gallon water containers could hold it in good condition), bought some glow sticks, 3 lbs of salt. *Iodine is an important nutrient. More cans of food. Got a wicked good price on line for some silver. Got my water pump on my jeep fixed.
Yesterday, I broke in my AR-15 and my Glock 19. G19 needs some more break-in before I'll carry it (also needs XS Sights). AR needs to be zeroed as well.
I ALWAYS feel better after loading magazines.
Yesterday...I fired up the generator and the snow blower. Ran them for a little bit. Added Stabil to the tanks.
Today, I picked up some more rice for long term storage.
Giot a dehydrator (fo free!) and started drying some apples. Went to cut up the jalepenos that were hanging, but they were mostly dry anyway.
I took some finances and solidified them. Looked at some single shot guns in my price range.
Finished building my second pantry over the weekend. Now I get to fill it. I built it in a separate location in my basement that is a lockable room. Helps keep it from becoming a conversation piece. My other pantry is the standard walk in style that houses have off the kitchen. That one I don't mind people knowing about.
I have something very similar to that. I have a pantry that we draw our every day food from. We also have the five row shelf that is the, "we're out of X can you go grab it." and then we have a room in our basement that has a padlock on it that has most of our preps. Even a few plants under lights because I want to see it they will give a little more or even go all year. Not all because I have a five gallon bucket in the back of all the closets in our house(4). I really should take some pics one day so I can get some feedback, not hot or not feedback but serious critique to improve my room.
That's exactly what we do as well. Since we "stockpile" stuff we eat everyday, we have the excess in the basement. If the pantry runs low, we simply bring more up from the basement. Any new stuff we buy gets marked with the date and added to the "stockpile".
$600 order from Emergency Essentials, $200 order from Amazon (mostly Barry Farms stuff) cashing out a badly performing 401K to pay off some of the wifes debt. Figure by the end of October, only the house and her Jeep left in the debt column....and under $100K combined, I can live with it.
Picked up the last case of wide mouth pint canning jars at Wally World along with the last 11 boxes of lids. They were in the clearance isle. Wally World was making room for all the HollowPeoplesRepublicofChinaThanksXmasween Stuff!! Payed cash money...I mean Federal Reserve Notes.
How do you get something like Anti-biotics to store? I always wonder what I would do for a major medical problem during the EOTW. Any suggestions?
is where I got mine. They took a bit longer than I liked to ship, but I'm a "need it now, right now" kinda guy.
BUT, and I'm not sure where I read it, they come off of the same "for human consumption" line.
NOW, I'M NOT A DOCTOR, I'M NOT PRETENDING TO BE, KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING BEFORE YOU DO IT CAUSE I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU ARE AN IDIOT.
I did get my Doctor to write me a prescription for Epi- Pens ( Bee sting pen). I got two and put them in my truck and first aid kit just in case. Even though I'm not allergic he lets me get them because of all the time I am in the woods. After insurance they were $5.00 ea. I know that they will also provide you with a travel pack of stuff if you are traveling to a third world country. I'm going to ask the Doc. if I can get samples or something for the shelf. I noticed on a pill bottle of antibiotics that they expire after a year. Do you know what the life is of the fish-cillin is?
Took my 12ys old son out for target practice with his new 10/22. He is driving tacks with that thing..
Emergency Essentials/beprepared.com is a great site to buy from.
This is my first post. I have been listeneing to the podcasts since almost day one. We have been steadily working on getting prepared.
We got a generator and Fuel.
But today we got some silver to add to the "cash stash"
. Do you know what the life is of the fish-cillin is?
These are about 8 months old, and they expire in Oct 2010. I'm guessing 3yrs shelf life. I store mine in the freezer, so I'm guessing I'll get 5 or so.
Today I just read a couple of sites, so knowledge for today. Yesterday I picked up 2 x boxes of 550 .22 form WalMart.
I continued one of my new missions and exercised to get in better physical shape and discussed the social and economic problems we face today and possibility of things getting tough with a friend to spread the word about survivalism.
I replaced my plastic fuel cans with metal NATO style jerry cans.
Got a $25K loan at 3.75% to pay off all the wife's debt.
The fact that the loan comes out of a poorly performing retirement account, that at the earliest is accessible in 20yrs helps. It's also paid back via payroll deduction and not taxable unless I quit.
Now it's just a matter of time before she gets another card....and I get unmarried. Or bury her in the back yard.


A suspected yaba trader has been killed in a "gunfight" with BGB and the police.
Mostak Ahmed Prakash Muchhu, 35, was killed during a joint drive conducted by BGB and the police in the Jaliapara area ofTeknaf upazila around 5:30am on Sunday.
Three members of BGB and the police were hurt during the drive, claimed BGB. They also said they recovered 10,000 pieces of yaba and a firearm from the spot.
Commander of Teknaf 2 BGB Lt Col Md Asaduzzaman Chowdhury said: "On Saturday evening, a joint force of BGB and the police conducted an anti-drug drive in North Jaliapara area and detained Muchhu. After initial interrogation, the force took Muchhu with them to conduct a further drive in Jaliapara area.
"At one point, miscreants in that area fired at BGB-police and tried to take Muchhuaway," Asaduzzaman said. "Muchhu was shot in the ensuing gunfight."
Muchhu was taken initially to Teknaf Health Complex and later transferred to Cox's Bazar Sadar Hospital, where the on-duty doctors declared him dead. His body has been kept in Cox's Bazar Sadar Hospital for autopsy.
Asaduzzaman added: "We recovered 10,000 pieces of yaba, a firearm and empty bullet shells from the spot."
However, he was unable to name the firearm and the three members of BGB-police who were injured in the gunfight.
Teknaf police station Officer-in-Charge Pradip Kumar Das could not be reached when contacted for further information.

This is what I wore last Sunday for an afternoon of chilling, relaxing and watching a movie with the boy (Hugo by Martin Scorsese, realllly loved it!) Nothing special, just a pair of comfortable skinnies that I'm dying back to black this week since they've gone awfully grey.... and my boyfriends baseball jacket that I love stealing every once in a while ;) Sorry boo!
One more day of work this week and then it's back to gardening/digging/staining our fence and a whole lot more. It's a lot of work which we don't always feel like doing after a full day of work, but doing it together with all the neighbours and having drinks afterwords make up for a lot of it! hihi..
Have a great day sweeties!!
Chocolate cake and strawberries I made for dessert earlier this week. I have never had a chocolate cake that tasted so light and fluffy but with a deep chocolate flavour to it at the same time, and can you believe it was from a store bought mixture?!
Fresh basil in the kitchen for a lasagna salad I have planned for tomorrow. I'm gonna let you know how that turnes out!
This might look and sound a bit weird, but watermelon & feta cheese are some goooood friends! When I was waiting for Pieter to get tattooed again this last Wednesday, I was talking to a guy about all sorts of things including food. Since he is Greek he told me that the two of them are an amazing combination and I should definitely try it out, so I did and let me tell ya : it. is. GOOD.
Did you have a good week? And how was your weekend? Don't forget, you can follow me on instagram @chocolatechipcouture and twitter @daffetje as well for more frequent updates since I'm swamped right now and blogging kinda gets inbetween everything at the moment.
All I did was make my favourite lemonade (tropical flavour, yumm!) a little bit stronger then I would normally do, add some chopped up mint and poured that in to the popsicle molds. Then added some water melon cut in to cubes and putted them in the freezer for little over an hour.
It can rain whatever it wants outside, but I'm indoors celebrating summer with my summer-popsicles!
PS. the second we got out of the car to make these pictures it started to rain, but we went ahead and tried to make the best of it. Looking at them now I gotta say, I really like the 'rain effect' it has on the pics so guess it worked out great anywayz!
Have a great day sweeties and talk to you soon!
LOVE those gorgeous yellow drapes, would have never thought about it but I am right now!
How cute are these miniature Oreo's? I actually bought them to decorate some cupcakes with but thought they'd do great with an afternoon cup of tea as well.
MAC Zoom Fast Black Lash mascara that I bought last weekend. I actually have a favourite mascara that I never part from (see here) but since I'm really starting to love all things MAC I thought I'd give their mascara a try instead of buying my good ol' Lancôme Hypnôse this time. Even though I was really surprised it looked full and really gave volume from the first time on (usually the first couple times I use a mascara it feels too 'fresh' and gets better once the bottle has been opened a few times and used. It sounds weird, I know..;) ANYWAY.., sunday evening we were watching a movie and as always I cried in the end (don't judge) and my mascara was down to my cheekbones. Major plus on the Lancôme one, even though it isn't waterproof it has NEVER run out and this one starts going with even the thought of a tear or raindrop. Sorry MAC, but you haven't won me over mascara-wise..
Pieter's new shades. We both have a love for RayBan sunglasses and treated ourself to some new ones. He got some polarized folding Wayfarers and look at the übercool black case it came in!
And last my new bikini, can't wait for the sun to come back out again and take this baby out for a swim!

L'eretico - Un gesto di coraggio (conosciuto anche col titolo Il maestro degli errori) è un film del 2005 diretto da Piero M. Benfatti,  con Remo Girone e Tobias Moretti. Il film premiato al Festival del cinema di Salerno nel 2005, è un kolossal storico che ricostruisce la vita di Francesco Stabili, meglio noto come Cecco d'Ascoli. Girato prevalentemente ad Ascoli con massiccio uso di comparse locali, il film uscì con successo all'estero (in particolare ottimi incassi nei cinema in Germania e ottimi ascolti in TV in Austria), ma non è mai uscito in Italia a causa di insolvenze finanziarie della produzione, che hanno costretto la magistratura al sequestro della pellicola.

From Canada to Australia, solidarity in resistance to G20 neocolonialism
by Stefan Christoff
illustration : Seeing Through the G20: A Peoples' Zine
Free Trade, Inequality & the Environment
In official discourse the G20 is presented as a critical global meeting "to develop comprehensive growth strategies," to break down "barriers to trade," while pushing national economies to become "more competitive." In reality the G20 text – outlining major agenda points for the 2014 Brisbane summit – articulates a free market vision for international economic policy.
In reality this text translates into violent policies on the ground worldwide, from increasing attacks on environmental standards, to moves that undercut legal infrastructures supporting workers rights, to the heightened commodification of public institutions (i.e. healthcare and education) with the goal of remaking public infrastructure into for-profit corporate systems driven by corporate elites.
Brisbane's upcoming G20 summit occurs at a time when the richest 1% literally control half of global wealth, a stark fact that clearly illustrates the deep failure of this "free market" world vision to bring any real "development" for the vast majority. In fact, Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott, who is closely ideologically aligned to Conservative Prime Minister Stephen Harper in Ottawa, pushed climate change off the G20 agenda altogether, describing the issue as "clutter," while also stating recently that climate action is "socialism masquerading as environmentalism".
In the summer of 2010, Conservative Prime Minister Harper similarly rejected calls, including an open appeal by the UN secretary general, to place climate change as an important agenda item at the G20 summit in Toronto. In fact, a public anti-environment, pro-oil/extractive industry expansion political alliance between Harper and Abbott has been asserted publicly. In Ottawa this past summer, the two conservative politicians held a joint press conference to assert their anti-environment united front, essentially arguing that short term "economic growth" was more important than the health of the planet and by extension our collective long term survival. Clearly this free market fundamentalist vision, pushing us all toward the destruction of life supporting systems on earth, needs to be confronted and stopped, a dystopian vision so clearly embraced and pursued by the G20 process.
Police powers
As Australian state security forces and police prepare networks of repression against the planned protests against the G20, including blocking off large parts of downtown Brisbane as "security zones," where free expression and non-state sanctioned protest are essentially banned, recalling similarly draconian moves taken by the Canadian government in 2010 is important.
Toronto's downtown core was completely fenced off during the G20, as part of an unprecedented security operation costing over $1 billion, involving an estimated 20,000 law enforcement officials, over 1,000 private security guards, closed circuit TV cameras, military-style checkpoints, surveillance aircrafts, along with sound and water cannons. A three-metre high and six-kilometre long $5.5 million dollar concrete and metal security fence snaked throughout downtown Toronto, constructed by Canadian international engineering giant SNC-Lavalin, a corporation with long ties to western military neo-colonial interventions, particularly NATO's violent occupation of Afghanistan.
Like Australia's recently passed "anti-terror" laws, allowing the Australian Security Intelligence Organization (ASIO) to secretly detain Australians without charge and conduct "coercive questioning," while also spy on the entire Australian internet with just one warrant, Canada moved to enforce unprecedented "security" oriented legal and physical infrastructure leading up to the G20 summit, while mobilizing domestic surveillance operations as part of the infrastructure of G20 repression.
The Canadian Security and Intelligence Service (CSIS) as well as national police forces applied intrusive surveillance and also infiltrated activist networks organizing to protest the G20. Moves that lead to highly mediatized police raids on community activists in the days leading up to the Toronto protests, while on the streets police forces utilized major tactics of repression, like indiscriminate mass arrests and kettling tactics, both strongly condemned by organizations like Amnesty International and human rights officials at the UN. Police forces in London also deployed similarly violent tactics of police repression against anti-G20 protests in 2009, while in Pittsburgh police deployed and used an ear damaging sonic cannon against summit protesters.
Similarly to the upcoming G20 Brisbane summit, most major media outlets and government officials openly collaborated in the lead-up to the summit in Toronto, embracing the very similar language and political framing around the G20 summit and the corresponding demonstrations, creating a political atmosphere that criminalized the grassroots protest mobilization and critique of the G20, particularly groups working on direct action challenges to the summit.
Deep political contradictions between the expressed ideals of both the G20 and the political forces backing it, claiming to respect democratic ideals and personal liberty, were clear in Toronto and are clear today in Australia.
Another political reality that binds together the contexts of current mobilization in Australia and the protest organizing in Canada, are the persisting colonial realities that drive conservative politics in both countries, a political force that also pushes the larger neoliberal ideology behind the G20 institution globally. Grassroots forces on the day-to-day front-lines combating contemporary neoliberalism in both countries, best illustrated by resource industry expansion, are indigenous land defenders, First Nations communities in Canada and Aboriginal movements in Australia.
Meaningful grassroots critiques and protests against the G20, that fully address colonial realities, place anti-G20 organizing on the stolen lands of Australia and Canada in a broader and long-term context.
In this context highlighting the fact that Canadian politicians, specifically former Liberal finance minister Paul Martin, was a key player in pushing the formation of the G20, a move to bind the growing economies of the global south to the western-driven neoliberal economic order. One of the first G20 summits took place in downtown Montréal in 2000, also faced by a grassroots protest mobilization that linked the neoliberal vision of the G20 to the political and economic process of colonization, globally but also locally in the Americas.
The G20 process clearly is a contemporary extension of a colonial framework, an extension of the western European capitalist worldview that sees people and lands as territories and networks to conquer. Similarly to colonialism in early inceptions, like the contemporary manifestations represented by processes like the World Trade Organization (WTO) or the G20, do not accept contradicting systems. As indigenous systems of governance and social organization were actively confronted by colonialism in both Australia and Canada, pushing communities toward genocide, today global economic power refuses space for alternative economic models on a large scale, a fact illuminated by the constant interventions by western powers against living alternatives, as seen in Latin America over the past couple generations. Although social movements both locally and globally have won some important space for people outside of the halls of power today, referenced in symbolic documents like the the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the reality is that active dissent against dominant systems of power and economics, represented by organizations like the G20 is not tolerated.
In highlighting this colonial context and also past mobilizations against the G20 followed by systems of repression invoked by state power to protect the undemocratic international summits, points to a continuity between the current organizing in Brisbane and past grassroots efforts internationally. Activists in Brisbane working to confront the economic and environmental violence represented by the G20 is inspiring for activists in Canada that have been organizing against the G20 over the past decade. Specifically the diversity of protest tactics that have emerged to oppose the G20 summit, from the broad demonstrations being planned, to the Plan B action page that has come up encouraging direct action and "decentralized resistance" to the summit. As the Brisbane summit fast approaches, let us find voice in our common struggle across borders to oppose the violent, neoliberal vision represented by the G20 and express our support for the grassroots protests being planned to oppose it.

Sebamed Hair Fall Rescue Shampoo 200 ml is suitable for all hair types, and is soap and alkali-free. It reduces hair fall with NHE formula, caffeine and ginkgo biloba.
What exactly is hair fall?We naturally lose 60 - 80 hairs a day. However, hair fall beyond this normal daily occurrence can be frequently related to stressful conditions, hormonal imbalances, an inadequate diet or a hereditary predisposition. We have a finite amount of hair, so it is important to protect the health of your hair; to identify the cause of any unusual hair fall; and to act quickly.Counteract hair fall:To maintain strong healthy hair, the hair papilla and follicle require a continuous supply of nutrients and oxygen, especially throughout its active anagen growth phase. This supply is insured by a dense net of capillaries around the papilla of each hair. Hormones, stress and exogenous factors can reduce this vital microcirculation in the scalp resulting in impaired hair growth. The shampoo formula supports the physioloigcal scalp functions which provide the best conditions for healthy growth of hair. Regular use reduces hair fall.*P.Arenberger, Dermatological Clinic University of Prague, Czech Republic 2009.Trinity Pharma (Pty) Ltd.www.trinitypharma.co.za.Contents:200 ml e.The efficacy of sebamed hair fall rescue shampoo is based on the NHE formula plus caffeine and gingko biloba to stimulate an activation of the micro-circulation of the scalp. There is an increase in the supply of nutrients and oxygen to the papilla and follicle, to provide optimal growth conditions for strong and healthy hair.*W. Gehring, Dermatological Department Municipal Clinic of Karlsruhe, Germany, 2007.Sebapharma® GmbH & Co. KG.Quality through research.www.sebamed.com.Cleansing products.Skin care products.Natural deodorants.Sebamed clear face.Sebamed anti-ageing.Sebamed visio.Baby sebamed.Sebamed sun care.Ideal hair care without soap.Sebapharma maintains constant close contact with leaders in dermatological research and product development. All sebamed products are developed and tested in cooperation with University and Dermatological clinics. Our products reflect quality through their careful scientifically developed formulations and their adjustment to the physiological pH value of healthy skin to guarantee the highest skin tolerability.By being a "leading edge" innovator of new skin care products, our products always reflect state-of-the-art dermatological research for the best personal care. Sebamed offers you a broad, modern system of medicinal cleansing and care products - fine tuned to the requirements of your skin. Because only individual care offers reliable protection for the health of your skin.What is pH?pH is the value of acid or alkali measured on a scale of 1-14.pH 7 being neutral. Lower numbers are increasingly acidic, higher numbers are increasingly alkaline. Note: Healthy skin has a slightly acid pH value of 5.5.Everyday shampoo:Contains a sugar-based surfactant for a specially gentle cleansing action. With a pH value of 5.5 to moisturize and protect your hair and scalp, particularly if you wash your hair very often. Also suitable for sensitive scalps and dry, damaged hair.Package size: 200 ml bottle.Repair shampoo:Sebamed repair shampoo was developed specially for structurally damaged hair. Structural damage can be caused by perming, colouring, styling, hot blow-drying and sun. sebamed Repair Shampoo contains a highly effective repair complex of plant-based active ingredients to cleanse, moisturize and protect your hair and scalp. Biopolymers encase the hair shaft with a microfilm to protect the hair and restore structural damage. Natural protein and moisturizers regulate the moisture balance of the hair and scalp. The pH value of 5.5 stabilizes hair and scalp. For healthy hair from the roots right to the tips.Package size: 200 ml bottle.Anti-hairloss shampoo:The efficacy of sebamed anti-hairloss shampoo is based on the NHE formula plus Caffeine and Gingko biloba for the activation of the microcirculation of the scalp. This stimulation of the blood circulation enhances the supply of nutrients and oxygen to the hair root. It provides optimal growth conditions for strong and healthy hair reducing hair loss. Furthermore the shampoo gently cleanses scalp and hair and its pH value of 5.5 supports the balance of the acid mantle.Problems with hair growth usually start unnoticed around age 30, particularly the hereditary, hormonal androgenetic alopecia. Testosteron and other hormones are transformed by the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase to dihydrotestosteron (DHT) in the hair follicle. DHT binds to hormone receptors of the hair root, leading to a degeneration of the capillaries supplying the cells with nutrients and oxygen. The result is progessive thinning of the individual hair and a shorter growth phase which leads to more hairfall and reduced hair density.Sebamed Anti-Hairloss Shampoo uses the circulation enhancing effects of the NHE complex to counteract the deficiencies of nutrient and oxygen supply to the hair roots. The NHE complex consists of well-estabilshed and safe components. Most users observe a slight tingling of the scalp. However, if the skin of the scalp is quite sensitive or there is an atopic skin condition, especially in hot and humid climate zones, it can cause a slight reddening to intensive redness of the skin, during the initial stages of using the shampoo, until the scalp is accustomed to this sudden stimulation of its mircro-circulation. This signature of the increased circulation should not last more than 30 min.This is why it is important to only use the recommended amount of shampoo. More shampoo does not achieve better results, only consequent regular use of the shampoo over several months.This shampoo is not for use on the body.This shampoo is not for use on children, as our clinical tests have only be done with adults.Anti-dandruff shampoo:Gently and thoroughly cleanses normal and oily hair. Contains the active ingredient piroctone olamine to prevent and remove dandruff. The pH value of 5.5 stabilizes the scalp's acid protective mantle and protects the hair from drying, dulliness split ends and breaking.Package size: 200 ml bottle.Colour care shampoo:The efficacy of the sebamed colour care shampoo is based on a gentle glycoside cleansing compound and active intensive care ingredients of the sebamed Hydro-Balancing Complex containing a moisturizing natural starch derivative combined with a wheat micro protein to counteract the dryness of hair and scalp. Lipid crystals and the UV filter form an ultra-fine protective and shine-enhancing film on the hair shaft, ensuring long lasting colour brilliance.Package size: 200 ml bottle.Hair repair conditioner:Moisturizing panthenol and an effective combination of selected plant extracts give your hair a healthy shine and make it easier to style. Particularly suitable for dry, damaged hair. Use after washing your hair and rinse off before styling.Package size: 200 ml bottle.Structure and function of the hair:What exactly is hair loss? We naturally lose 60 - 80 hair a day. However, hair loss beyond this normal daily occurrence can be frequently related to stressful conditions, hormonal imbalances, an inadequate diet or a hereditary predisposition. We have a finite amount of hair, so it is important to protect the health of your hair; to identify the cause of any unusual hair loss; and to act quickly. Counteract hair loss: To maintain strong healthy hair, the hair papilla and follicle require a continuous supply of nutrients and oxygen, especially throughout its active anagen growth phase.

The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) launched an initiative titled 'Videsh Aaya Pradesh ke Dwaar' in Hyderabad with an aim to strengthen public diplomacy.
The other objective of the initiative was to enhance the commitment to take mandates of our foreign policy to the all the people.
The initiative involves MEA's engagement with the regional media based in different cities across India who have carved their own space and have a unique and wide readership profile.
Through our direct interaction with the local media, the Ministry desires to communicate our foreign policy priorities in simple terms, highlight the benefits accruing to the common people through our diplomatic efforts and bring the domain of foreign policy closer to the people. It is also intends to create a pool of media professionals interested in foreign policy and guide them on connecting with the MEA.
The initiative was launched in Hyderabad, a key centre for Telugu and Urdu media, by Shri Raveesh Kumar, Official Spokesperson & Joint Secretary (External Publicity) of the Ministry of External Affairs. The event was attended by around 40 Editors and representatives from the main media organisations based in Hyderabad.
