It's not been an easy ride for Asking Alexandria. During their rapid ascendency to the upper tier of the British metal scene, they've had spats, line-up changes (and quite public falling out with frontman Danny Worsnop), five full-length albums and a ton of awards. But where did Asking Alexandria come from and how did they survive the past 15(!) years? We trace five-piece back to their roots in Dubai and how they became one of the standout bands in the mid-noughties metalcore boom.
Guitarist Ben Bruce and fellow Brit James Murray – expats living in Dubai – form Amongst Us, a synthcore band which would later become End Of Reason and eventually Asking Alexandria.
The Dubai lineup of Asking Alexandria release a 12-track debut called The Irony Of Your Perfection, which you've never heard for many, many good reasons.
Ben moves to the UK and reforms Asking Alexandria as a six-piece with Danny Worsnop (vocals), Ryan Binns (keys), James Cassells (drums), Cameron Liddell (rhythm guitar) and Joe Lancaster (bass).
Ryan leaves the band. Asking Alexandria fly to the US, buy an RV and drive back and forth across the country. The 90-date campaign launches them to the head of metal's latest class of up-and-comers.
Sam Bettley replaces Joe Lancaster in December and joins the guys in the US a month later. The classic lineup is solidified.
Asking Alexandria sign with Sumerian Records and release their debut, Stand Up And Scream, in September. It peaks at No.170 on the Billboard 200. They follow with Life Gone Wild, an EP consisting of remixes, demos and Skid Row covers.
Asking Alexandria play Los Angeles' storied Whisky A Go Go for the first time. Danny tears his ankle ligaments during the first song but soldiers through a set that ends with a trip to the hospital and a bottle of Vicodin.
The band embark on a world tour that includes more than 100 dates in 14 countries.
Reckless & Relentless is released in April to largely positive reviews. Asking Alexandria dip their collective toe in the waters of the rock mainstream with the clean-vocal track Someone, Somewhere.
Charlie Sheen invites the band to open for him on his bizarre My Violent Torpedo Of Truth standup tour in the US. Due to touring obligations, the band are forced to decline, which turns out to be a good thing – Sheen's tour is widely regarded as a disaster.
Danny and guitarist Jeff George form We Are Harlot, a riff-oriented band inspired by classic rockers like Bon Jovi, Aerosmith and Bad Company.
Another huge year of touring, including the Outbreak tour with As I Lay Dying. Danny is forced to miss some dates due to a ruptured vocal cord. He recovers in time to perform with Suicide Silence at the benefit concert for Mitch Lucker.
Asking Alexandria headline Brixton O2 Academy in January, which they will release as Live From Brixton And Beyond in December, 2014.
We Are Harlot sign with Roadrunner and announce that they'll record a full-length debut. Danny insists that his commitment to Asking Alexandria remains solid.
In January, Danny resigns from Asking Alexandria to focus on We Are Harlot.
Sumerian Records CEO Ash Avildsen suggests they check out labelmate Denis Stoff, from Down & Dirty. Denis sends over a few Asking Alexandria covers with clean vocals and joins the band soon after.
The band release I Won't Give In, their first single with Denis. Due to Denis's visa issues, however, the band are forced to cancel their first two gigs with the singer at Manchester Academy III and London Underworld.
We Are Harlot release their debut album. We say it "showcases a fiery amalgam of monster riffs, full-throttle tempos and arena-friendly choruses that erupt with blood-pumping vitality". They win a Metal Hammer Golden God award for Best New Band in June.
With Denis firmly entrenched as the new singer, Asking Alexandria kick off another world tour.
In March, AA release The Black – their only record with Denis. It enters the UK Top 20 and peaks on the Billboard 200 at Number 9.
In October, Ben reveals on Facebook Live that Denis has broken off communication with the band. He blows everybody's mind by revealing they've already replaced him – with Danny Worsnop.
On December 15, Asking Alexandria's classic lineup release their fifth album, Asking Alexandria.

"Today Novell and Microsoft announced a partnership in which Microsoft has made some unlikely-seeming promises regarding Linux. What aren't they telling you?

And it has significant negative implications for Open Source in general.
"There are two significant announcements. First, that Novell and Microsoft are entering into a patent cross-license, and second, that Microsoft is promising not to assert its patents against individual non-commercial developers. The bad part is that this sets Mirosoft up to assert its patents against all commercial Open Source users.

Helping Your Child to Cope with Grief and Losses Related to COVID-19

4/28/2022 By: Janet A. Aker, MHS Communications
Month of the Military Child - Celebrating Military Kids | Children's Health | Psychological Fitness | Coronavirus and the COVID-19 Vaccine | Coronavirus & the MHS Response
More than 140,000 American children have suffered the loss of a parent or caregiver due to COVID-19, according to a recent study.
COVID-19 was the third leading cause of death among Americans last year, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, so many children have also lost extended family members or close family friends.
And death is not the only form of loss that children have faced. Children of all ages have experienced the loss of friendships through physical separation. They've missed out on social experiences and milestones like in-person schooling, sports seasons, proms, or even graduations.
How can parents help their children through the grieving process?
"Children of different ages react to death differently," said Army Capt. (Dr.) Christin Folker, a pediatrician at Weed Army Community Hospital at Fort Irwin, California.
"Infants and toddlers will notice the absence of a caregiver or sense that something is wrong and that others are upset," she said. "Even without understanding the concept of death, their brain development is influenced by these stressful experiences, promoting a stronger 'fight-or-flight' response to future stressors."
In preschool and early school-age years, "children may believe that death is temporary and that their loved one will come back," said Army Capt. (Dr.) Cory McFadden, a staff pediatrician at the Carl R. Darnall Army Medical Center, Fort Hood, Texas.
"The younger that a child is when he or she experiences the loss of a loved one, the more they will struggle with the finality of death. It will take time for them to understand that the person is no longer alive," he said.
"Because of this difficulty with understanding, they will in general grieve a little quicker and bounce back," he suggested.
Folker explained how younger children may struggle with a wide range of emotions.
"They also may believe that they are in some way to blame for the death if they misbehaved or got angry with that loved one," Folker said.
"A more concrete understanding of the causes and absolute nature of death begins in school age years," she explained.
"Adolescents will process losses more similarly to adults, but many are processing these experiences and their accompanying strong emotions for the first time."

Re-grieving
"Many children will 're-grieve' the absence of a significant person as they go through different developmental stages and milestones," Folker said.
"For example, a child who lost a close grandparent at the age of 6 may re-experience the sadness of their absence at their next birthday party or elementary school graduation," she said.
"Children who are less likely to talk about their feelings, especially adolescents, should be offered open-ended opportunities to talk about how they're feeling," she suggested.
Some ways to approach that are to say: "I know we talked about your aunt's death a few days ago – how are you feeling? What are you thinking about? Do you have any questions about what happened, or what it means for our family?" Folker said.
"Even children who seem 'OK' may benefit from discussing their feelings with a counselor or participating in play therapy," she added.
Signs of grief can be individual for each child. Folker and other child experts from the Defense Health Agency's Psychological Health Center of Excellence offer these tips.
Refer to "death" directly. Avoid using confusing phrases such as "went to sleep."
Explain that the loved one is not living on Earth anymore and cannot come back. If it fits with your family's beliefs, explain that their loved one is in Heaven or the afterlife.
Get back to normal routines at home.
Maintain a consistent schedule for school activities and bedtimes to help kids establish a sense of security after a loss.
Be ready and accessible. Avoid pushing your child to talk. Instead, follow your child's lead and stay open to talking over time as needed.
Allow your child to ask questions, and provide honest answers.
Talk about how to express anger in appropriate ways, such as through drawing or writing.
Remind your child they are safe and surrounded by supportive people.
Model your grieving. Say, "'I'm feeling really sad today' or 'I'm feeling frustrated today'" about your loss and explain why you are feeling that way.
Teach calming techniques like deep breathing, yoga, and meditation. These can help reduce the effects of stress and build your child's capacity for coping with adverse events.
"Sometimes parents are so overwhelmed with grief that they can't be there for their kids, and in the short term that is OK," McFadden said.
"It is also OK for the parents to share with kids how they are dealing with the loss," he said.
"Another way that parents can help children to overcome the pandemic's developmental challenges is to engage in activities,' Folker said.
For example, "reading together and talking about the story gives children a chance to practice language. Age-appropriate crafts allow children to work on fine-motor hand skills. Parents can let their children 'help' with activities around the house to keep them active and developing gross motor skills," Folker said.
Reach Out for Help
Mourning the loss of a loved one is painful, but you do not have to do it alone. "Check in with other families facing similar experiences. Ask about their religious background and practices, and always recommend meeting with a priest/rabbi/imam for support," or to military chaplains, McFadden suggested.
"In addition to reaching out to a psychological health professional, try building a nurturing support network," Folker said. This may include other families with similar experiences, school officials, and places of worship.

Sikh was thrown out of Wimbledon queue for 'making other people uncomfortable'
Tanveer MannTuesday 12 Jul 2016 9:52 am
The man was allegedly kicked out because he was making other people 'uncomfortable' (Picture: Getty Images)
A Sikh man who was asked to leave the overnight camping queue for Wimbledon's centre court because he was 'making other people feel uncomfortable' has spoken out against his treatment.
The tennis-lover, who does not wish to be identified, took to Facebook to voice his anger at being thrown out and accused the club's overnight security of racism.
He wrote on Friday: 'Kicked out of the overnight camping line for centre court Wimbledon line "because you make some people around you uncomfortable, so we're gonna have to report you and ask you to leave immediately, sir".
He took to Facebook to voice his anger on Friday (Picture: Facebook)
The sportsman, who wears a turban, explained: 'All I wanted was to peacefully chill and patiently await an opportunity to re-enter the hallowed grounds and see the decorated surface while Roger and Milos scamper and glide across it.'
Dozens of people responded to his post saying he should report the 'discrimination' to police.
He told Metro.co.uk: 'I felt awful. I felt like I should've fought and negotiated but I backed down and silently left.'
'I don't feel like I'm ever going back now. It's still one of my favourite tournaments but can no longer definitively say it's a lifelong dream to play on centre court.'
He added: 'While I was in the queue, I befriended other people who were alone and we started talking.
'None of them gave me the body language that would indicate I should stop talking. I only spoke to people adjacent to me and everyone was fine.'
The tennis-lover managed to get back into the grounds and made an official complaint (Picture: EPA)
'But then these blonde haired, blue-eyed ex-military security guards came up to me and told me that I was making people "uncomfortable" and I had to leave.
'It made me think it was very racist, as I was one of three people of colour out of around 120 other people who weren't ethnic.'
The sportsman, who dreams of becoming the next Andy Murray, was eventually allowed to enter the ground after re-queuing in the line a few hours later and made an official complaint about his treatment.
A spokesperson for Wimbledon said:
We can confirm that a gentleman was asked to leave The Queue at 4.42am this morning (Friday) after a number of complaints from his fellow queuers about his behaviour.
He has previously been warned about his conduct in The Queue on up to six separate occasions during this year's Championships.
We do acknowledge, however, that in this instance the event safety staff could have provided a better explanation to him. Happily, the same person has been in the Grounds today (Friday) watching the tennis.'
But the man, who is in his 20s, insists he did nothing that would warrant being escorted off the grounds, was not intoxicated, loud or aggressive and had not been previously warned about his behaviour.

· Choose a easy theme – Despite the fact that you might be preserving issues easy, having a theme will maintain the celebration on monitor. After you've picked the date then go forward and decide the theme based mostly on what your little one actually likes. Get together planning is far simpler you probably have an idea to work round. The important thing right here is to maintain it easy and straightforward to do. In case your little one likes a well-liked character and even vans, there may be most likely a party-ware pack with that theme. Or to maintain issues even easier select your kid's favourite colour. A artistic mother selected a pink ball theme for her kid's birthday celebration. Everybody was requested to put on pink (which makes for nice pictures) and he or she had pink bouncy balls for all the youngsters to play with (straightforward and economical). Better of all there may be by no means a scarcity of pink celebration ware to finish the theme.
· Hold the celebration brief – Too typically mother and father really feel that because of the work and expense they've gone to that their kid's birthday celebration should go on all afternoon. The result's an overwhelmed birthday boy or lady and overtired and cranky company. By preserving it easy you might be saving your self that stress as nicely. Hold the celebration restricted to not more than two hours; this fashion you may get to all of the video games, presents and snacks with out anybody having a meltdown. After which when it is, executed it is executed. Guarantee that mother and father are conscious of the pickup time for his or her younger celebration goers.
· Hold the itinerary easy. You may have snacks laid out as everybody arrives, observe with an exercise or sport for the youngsters to do together with extra meals. You may then make an enormous fuss over the cake and observe this with a ultimate exercise or sport (or reward opening for those who do that throughout the celebration). Then hand out celebration baggage and ship everybody on their approach. There isn't a want to plot an excessively difficult celebration schedule for younger children.
· Do not decide difficult video games and actions for youngsters beneath the age of seven. Whereas older kids can deal with some video games, toddlers are too younger for structured video games like musical chairs. It really works greatest to strive easier issues, reminiscent of taking part in with bubbles, freeze dancing, a dance celebration, or drawing with sidewalk chalk. Bear in mind the youngsters is not going to be critiquing your celebration for stylish actions. Easy issues work greatest; blowing horns, carrying hats, and playing around will even make your little one really feel feted.
· Hold the meals easy – Bear in mind this isn't a gourmand crowd. The most effective meals for child's events is straightforward and uncomplicated. Even when your teen occurs to be a gourmand needless to say most youngsters should not. Easy, chew dimension meals like cheese sticks, child carrots and even mini muffins is usually a hit with the youthful crowd. Chances are you'll need to forego messy cake and ice cream and supply your younger celebration goers a donut or cupcake (appropriately embellished with the theme after all)!

In focus: Carl Lamb (CPD Y Rhyl 1879)
1 month ago davenwsport
Carl Lamb celebrates scoring his famous FA Cup goal for Droylsden against Chesterfield in 2008-09. Sadly the tie was abandoned at half time with the Bloods leading 1-0. Picture: CARL FLAHERTY
CPD Y Rhyl 1879 top-scorer Carl Lamb has had a much-travelled and varied football career.
Formerly a professional in 2014-15 with then League One club Chesterfield, the 37-year-old has played in European competitions and scored in an FA Cup tie which put his non-league team on course for a giant-killing.
In action for Droylsden
Born on November 10, 1984, Carl was with Liverpool and Chester as a youngster and his long list of clubs include Cammell Laird, Bangor City, NEWI Cefn Druids, The New Saints, Droylsden, Welshpool Town, Buckley Town, Witton Albion, Aberystwyth Town, Chesterfield, Alfreton, Rhyl FC, Colwyn Bay, Denbigh Town, Vauxhall Motors, Brymbo and CPD Y Rhyl 1879. He also played in Australia for two years.
Highlights of Carl's career include playing for The New Saints against FK Ventspils of Latvia in the 2007-08 Uefa Champions League.
On the ball for TNS (green and white hoops)
An unused substitute in the home first leg, which TNS won 3-2, Lamb started the return game abroad in which Ventspils triumphed 2-1 to advance on away goals.
Carl had earlier featured in Europe as a Bangor City player in the 2005-06 Inter-Toto Cup. He played in both legs of the tie against FC Dinaburg of Latvia, which ended in a 4-1 aggregate loss for the blues.
The 2008-09 season was another memorable one for Carl as part of a Droylsden side which made waves in the FA Cup.
The tier 6 Blue Square North team were drawn against Football League outfit Chesterfield in the second round and led 1-0 through a Lamb goal, but the match was abandoned at half time due to heavy fog.
The rearranged game ended 2-2, then Chesterfield led 2-0 in the replay only for that match to be abandoned due to floodlight failure.
The tie appeared to have been settled for good at the fourth attempt when Droylsden won 2-1 thanks to two Sean Newton goals.
Unfortunately, the Bloods were expelled for fielding Newton, who was suspended, and Chesterfield went through to face Ipswich in round three.
Carl spent two years playing in Australia before Chesterfield signed him on a non-contract basis in September 2014.
In 2015-16, Carl joined Welsh Premier League side Rhyl, where his notable feats included netting after 8.72 seconds of a game against his former club TNS.
Carl is back at Belle Vue this season having signed for new club 1879, whom he committed to in 2020.
He is currently on 20 goals for the season and enjoying his football.
Grassroots North Wales caught up with him for a chat….
How do you feel the season has gone so far for Rhyl 1879?
Season is going well so far, unbeaten in the league and with the manager adding a few more new signings the squad is looking really strong and there is a proper togetherness within the group.
With 20 goals scored, are you happy with your personal form?
Personal form is good, missed a few games due to work commitments but 20 goals in 13 goals in all competitions and 2 POTM awards. Hoping to take that form into the new year to help get us promotion.
What do you think of the standard of the tier 4 North Wales Coast East League Premier Division?
The standard for me is still at a decent level as every team that plays us wants to turn up and beat us, so we have to be on our game. We've had to battle some games out to win and we've proved we can mix it up which you defo have to do in this league.

Looking back, what have been the 3 main highlights of your career so far?
Playing and scoring in the FA Cup and playing in Europe.
Best team faced?
A Chesterfield team which included Rob Paige, Jack Lester, Jamie Ward.
Describe the best goal you have ever scored
For Welshpool v Prestatyn away – half volley from in my own half wind assisted haha – took in top bin
Tell the fans something about you we might not know….
I actually started out as a goalkeeper, broke my arm, played one game as a striker, scored 7 goals and that feeling of scoring goals was a lot better than stopping goals.
What are your hopes for 2022 – your personal hopes and hopes for the world?
I am hoping to be at Rhyl to try to help get them back-to-back promotions till they get back into the Premier where they belong.
Hopes for 2022 – that we can all just get back to living a normal life and Boris loses his role as prime minister.

Q: Como implementar a classe Parcelable? Necessito de ajuda na questão de orientação a objetos.
Preciso implementar a classe Parcelable no model Produto, mas por questão de organização, não gostaria de implementar diretamente na classe Produto e sim criar uma nova classe ProdutoParcelable e implementar ali e fazer com que a classe Produto identifique essa implementação ou "se torne" essa implementação.
O detalhe é que na possível classe ProdutoParcelable vou precisar dos atributos da classe Produto.
public class Produto extends ProdutoParcelable

public class ProdutoParcelable implements Parcelable
//Aqui vou precisar dos atributos de Produto

A: No caso do seu problema, eu usaria uma interface Produto, onde ela iria listar os atributos de um produto, e criaria uma classe ProdutoModel e ProdutoParcelable, ambas implementando Produto. Assim, quando você fosse criar um produto normal (sem Parcelable) tu usaria Produto produto = new ProdutoModel();. Mas eu não indico você fazer duas classes para isso, você está aumentando a complexidade de entendimento do seu código sem necessidade e pode ser que num futuro você se enrole com isso. Experiência própria.
Sobre a implementação do Parcelable, acesse esse link que tem um tutorial completo lá.

At Meticulous Man Services, we are dedicated to providing our clients the highest level of service possible. In order to do this effectively, we have created company-wide policies for the benefit of our team members and clients. We ask that each client read this thoroughly prior to your first appointment so that any questions may be addressed. Please contact us if you still have questions, concerns, or would simply like more clarification.
We accommodate the schedules of many clients and we know that sometimes unexpected things come up. We do our best to adapt as much as possible, but regularly-scheduled appointments do take precedence over emergency changes. We schedule appointments for specific days, however, times are approximate due to varying circumstances that affect our daily schedule. While we do our best to arrive as scheduled, there may be situations when we need to contact you to make a change. As a courtesy, we send you an email reminder 4 days prior to each scheduled cleaning appointment to the main email address on file.
NONE, ZIP, NADA!! You like things simple and easy to understand without any confusing or "got ya" charges and so do we. That's why we don't charge for cancellations, lockouts, or late/missing payments. How do we do this you might ask.
It's simple. When you schedule your cleaning service we ask that you either provide us with a key or give us a garage/door code so we can enter your home for future cleanings. This means you'll never have to leave your door unlocked or have to wait around for us to arrive while you have more important things to deal with.
At the time you initial schedule your cleaning service we also get a credit or debit card on file for payments. (See Payments) This means you'll never have to remember to make your cleaning service payment. And, if you ever need to reschedule a cleaning due to unexpected events no worries, just give us a call and we'll get you rescheduled for the next available opening.
We require you provide us with either a key or a garage/door code. We also believe that security is an important issue, especially while our cleaners are in your home. It is our policy to lock all entry doors while we are cleaning and to not allow access to unknown persons. For safety reasons, please don't rely on our cleaning professionals to let in workmen during the time we are in your home.
Cleaning rates are determined by the type of service requested, frequency of service, (the more service you have, the lower the price per cleaning), and size of your home.
We only accept payments via credit or debit cards. All customers must have a current credit or debit card on file to begin and continue services. Cards are processed at the beginning of each month by the 5th. If the 5th is on a weekend or holiday, cards will be processed the first business day before. A 50% non-refundable deposit is required for all One-Time and Move-In/Out cleanings before the appointment can be scheduled.
We offer a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee. This means that if you are not satisfied with your cleaning, notify us within 24 hours of your cleaning visit and we will return to fix the problem. If you are still not happy for any reason, you don't pay!
All teams work under a supervisor, except in the case when an individual cleaning tech is assigned to your home. We perform periodic quality checks either during or after cleanings. In order to ensure outstanding service, we also email you a quick, one-click survey after each cleaning to rate our service and your cleaning professional. Please be sure to respond to the surveys, which are used for promotions and incentives.
Anything outside of our agreed upon scope of work, including the cleaning of rooms not originally included in the bid, are considered add-ons and additional fees apply. Trades are at the discretion of the office. Our cleaning technicians are not authorized to deviate from the work order without prior approval from management. All add-ons and trades must be processed through the office, and not through our cleaning technicians.
We ask that you provide a clutter-free environment, which allows us to reach all areas to be cleaned. We greatly appreciate it when things like dishes, clothes, toys, leftover food, etc. are put away before we arrive. Since we are on a schedule, we will be working as quickly and efficiently as possible. Clutter increases the time it takes to clean your house at the rate we quoted and reduces our ability to fully complete your cleaning, both in time and quality.
Please limit the number of people in your home when we arrive. Our cleaning technicians are trained to work in an efficient manner. While we encourage our cleaning techs to converse with our clients, we also require them to complete their work in a timely manner. We ask that you do not disrupt their workflow by making special requests (see Add-Ons and Trades) during your scheduled cleaning.
We understand clients with pets tend to think of them more as members of the family. At Meticulous Man Services, we want to make sure we do all we can to minimize the stress that may occur when strangers enter their space. We are more than happy to meet and be acquainted, please be sure to let us know their name(s) on so we can add it to your client information, along with how to identify each if there are more than one.
While we love pets, we do ask for any pets that are aggressive, skittish or like to be underfoot to be placed in an area we will not be cleaning for their safety and ours. Please let us know if you would like us to let them out or back in (except in the case of an aggressive animal) and we will be happy to do so.
Due to health risks we cannot clean up after blood, vomit, feces (human and animal), or clean out litter boxes. We will also not clean while pest control spray is fresh. We require a safe working environment, including people, property, and pets. Just as you expect our cleaning techs to ensure your safety as they are working, we must be able to make sure they will be safe as well. We instruct our staff to only use a 2-step ladder for climbing and to lift no more than 25 pounds of weight without assistance.
Please ensure that your house is well ventilated and/or air-conditioned. We require the temperature be kept at 70-72°F for us to clean your home. Please note that as our cleaning techs work, their body temp increases. When a home is too hot it puts them at risk of suffering from heatstroke as well as becoming less efficient and increases the danger of breakage.
Due to potential safety issues, we cannot allow cleaning around interior construction projects. There is a danger of accidents and we do not want to interfere with another professional's work in progress.
All trash cans in the house will be emptied and will be lined with a new trash bag as required. Our cleaning technicians will NOT dispose of any items not already in a trash can or marked as trash. We never know what might be important to you. This includes soda cans, empty bottles, leftover food, etc.
We train all our cleaning techs in the proper and safe handling of items within your home. Unfortunately, accidents can still occur occasionally. If this happens you will be notified, along with a list of which item(s) were broken. All breakage and/or damage is required to be reported to the office immediately when it occurs. Reimbursement will be made up to $250 with a copy of your replacement receipt or a quote for a replacement with a similar item. Items which cannot be replaced due to sentimental or antique value should be reported to the office BEFORE service begins. We reserve the right not to touch an item. Reimbursement for items over $250 will be handled by our insurance company.
Any suspected damage by our cleaning technicians must be reported to the office within 24 hours after your appointment. An inspection will be scheduled in a timely manner. Repair or replacement will be arranged upon determination of responsibility.
Services may be terminated at any time by either party for any reason. We ask that you would kindly give us at least a week notice when terminating service.
Tipping is neither required nor expected, however, it is always appreciated. Please do not feel obligated to tip your cleaning techs. If you are happy with the service provided by your cleaning technician(s) and feel they have earned the additional vote of satisfaction, it is quite acceptable to them leave a tip.
We spend a lot of time and money to hire and train our cleaning technicians, so it is important that our clients do not try to solicit them away from us. All of our cleaning technicians have signed a Non-Compete Agreement and are prohibited from soliciting business from any client on his/her own behalf or on behalf of any third party during their employment with Meticulous Man Services or for one (1) year following termination of employment, without written approval from Meticulous Man Services.
You agree not to hire past or present cleaning technicians of Meticulous Man Services for a period of no less than one (1) year from the date the cleaning technician last worked for Meticulous Man Services. In the event you feel you must hire one of our cleaning technicians in spite of this agreement, then a $2,500.00 placement fee is due immediately upon employment of the past/present cleaning technicians, regardless of whether the employment is regular or on a contract basis.
Precaution is always the best protection. That being said, please DO NOT leave out any money or valuables which could be lost or taken. When we find valuables left out we will clean around them and also record them on the Checklist which we leave behind. We do not bring purses or personal items into your house. You are protected from theft by a Janitorial Bond. If a theft is suspected, our bond requires that you file a police report with your local authority.
In severe weather, we may determine it is not safe to travel and/or carry equipment and supplies to your home and cancel that day's service. When this occurs, we will work to reschedule your cleaning for the next available opening. Please assist us with your understanding if rescheduling is necessary.
We are closed and do not provide service on the following holidays: New Year's Eve, New Years Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Veterans Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, and Christmas Day. In the event that your regularly scheduled cleaning falls on a holiday, we will work with you to reschedule or provided credit towards an upgrade on your next cleaning visit.
The policies, procedures, and fees of Meticulous Man Services are subject to change with or without prior notice. Please be sure to read all of our policies and procedures. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.

Our child is autistic and can have some very challenging behaviors. Monica has done a remarkable job with him. Monica has worked with autistic children for several years and her background is in behavioral intervention. We have seen considerable improvement in Carter's problematic behaviors and I think it is directly attributable to her one-on-one support of him. Monica also watches our 3 year old on nights when we can't be home in time to get him from preschool. She is a fantastic addition to our household and I am far less stressed over whether a caregiver can "handle" Carter. We are thrilled to have found TeacherCare to fulfill our very specific caregiver requirements and we couldn't be happier.


is the ability to be with yourself.
And to that I mean really just be with yourself.
No task or goal or game.
But just you, walking with, sitting with, lying with, whatever comes up for you.
And it is, very much, something that needs to be learned.
It's like learning to walk when your thirty.
and we learn to let go our inauthentic narration.
when it life's all over you.


The idea that you can turn life into a "game" is an interesting one.
Taking the intangible and making it tangible changes your perception and thus your action.

Today on Revival Today Live, Evangelist Jonathan Shuttlesworth continues his teaching continues his teaching on keys to explosive increase in 2019. He then goes on to teach that as believers we have dominion over all sickness and disease.
God gives us the power to be successful.
God gives us the power to create wealth.
There's no success without financial increase.
The Bible is full of commandments, not suggestions.
The instruction that is in the Word of God for your life will never bring you backwards!
The Bible is not trying to rob life from you, it is for your profit and blessing!
1. You need to see it and get around people who have explosive increase.
2. You need to settle once and for all that prosperity is the will of God for you. You cannot be double-minded!
The key in this Scripture is that it doesn't say Christ WILL redeem us, or that he is IS redeeming us, Christ HAS ALREADY redeemed us from ALL curse of the law. Christ has brought us brought us back from the curse of the law- we are no longer slaves to the law!
What is in the curse of the law that Christ has redeemed us from?
Sin, sickness, pain, suffering, and death- are all part of the curse of the law- and we have been redeemed from it all!
Sickness and disease is CLEARLY listed as a curse of the law in the Bible. But Christ HAS redeemed us from the curse of the law!! Christ bore the curse of the law on the cross. He has redeemed us NOT just for sin- but also from all sickness and disease!
You have dominion over ALL sickness and disease!!

Q: Selectize disable sifter I am trying to implement selectize javascript library. It works but my question is how do I disable the sifter option. The problem is by default sifter option is enabled and if I have words like Asset in the option, it will be filtered to become et.
I tried with below but doesn't work:
score: function () {
    return function () {
        return 1
    }
}

A: Selectize is very dependent on sifter, I don't see a easy way to disable that, and I think if you do that, you get rid of most of (maybe the entire) selectize search feature.
sifter has an config option in its last version that can help you to achieve what you want, the config option is respect_word_boundaries:

If true, matches only at start of word boundaries (e.g. the beginning of words, instead of matching the middle of words)

The problem is selectize doesn't not use the latest version, so you have to use the not all-in-all bundled version of selectize called "default".
Make sure you're using sifter version 0.6.0.
I tried to do some tweaks using plugins on selectize to get this working. Check the result below:

Selectize.define('change_search', function(options) {
  var self = this;
  this.getSearchOptions = (function() {
    var original = self.getSearchOptions();
    return function() {
      original['respect_word_boundaries'] = true;
      return original;
    };
  })();
});

$(document).ready(function() {
  $('#search').selectize({
    plugins: ['change_search']
  });
});
.search {
  width: 300px;
  margin: 10px;
  display: block;

As a first time Mum, there is a whole new world to be discovered. I saw an ad for Hartbeeps when I was 6 months pregnant. Couldn't wait to start. I started Baby Bells when my baby boy was 5 weeks old. Here are just ten of the many reasons we love Hartbeep - Kate Mummy to Charlie 2 & George 1 month.

Rudy Rucker, R. U. Sirius, and Queen Mu, eds., The Mondo 2000 User's Guide.
In his images of Landcuts (comprising the interrelated series The City, Downtown and The Suburb), Paul-Émile Rioux is creating a brave new metamorphic world of habitat and inhabitation for the twenty-first century. Indeed, Rioux broaches a powerful critique even as he builds future worlds of tiered signs that may seem purely utopian and exhilarating on first viewing but which may in fact be profoundly dystopian. As we stand on the threshold of these landcuts, they lay a cunning trap for us. We are seduced into projecting within their infinity grids. We perceive them as harbingers of total colonization, and it is not long before we are submersed and swept away into uncharted depths.
The recent works seem to have been cut whole cloth from Rioux's forebrain, conjured wholesale as though through implanted wetware from direct and ongoing neural input. These are remarkably holistic images: seamless, dimensionally rich and layered wholes into which we project with alacrity. They have a sweepingly alien cast that reminds us of the best speculative fiction about the cities of the future. They also cross borders of genre, blur distinctions between nature and culture and cultural architectonic, and effortlessly subvert from within.
Rioux, like contemporary abstract painters such as David Blatherwick and Michel Daigneault, poses the question of telematic connectedness and viral interplay while at the same time foregrounding formal invention and semiotic play. Unlike those painters, however, Rioux exists squarely at the center of the digital, or digimorphic matrix. His works have such an order of internal logic that we feel we should have seen their kin before. In fact, they have no antecedents, which makes their allure all the stronger and more compelling.
Upon first seeing them, one might think of Yves Tanguy's masterwork Multiplication of the Arcs (1954) although there are no stylistic similarities whatsoever.  However, it is true that the work of both artists speaks to the limitless plasticity of the human mind. In any case, Rioux's work belongs as much to painting as it does to film and photography, and they certainly highlight and work from, if not Surrealism, the iteration of simplicity upon which all modern computing is based. The monolithic integers that populate these works—geometric structures not unlike skyscrapers and simply vast in number—emulate the extraordinary computational power of electrified binary numerics. In so doing, they reach an nth degree of formal complexity. These are integers of infinity that possess a strange grandeur and yield, for the viewer, an epic sense of arrival on the threshold. What we are given seems upon first inspection but a fragment of an endlessly iterated formal whole, a planet-sized city of machine constructs wherein the embodied viewer may well imagine a human factor not actually given. But what we do see is a well-nigh seamless urban core and seemingly infinite suburbia that, even with their slippages, divisions and thematized gaps, reach outwards towards the unknown and, perhaps, the unknowable. Here is an environing world wherein untold legions of nanobots seem to have run wild and the die is still being cast. It is one that tests existing definitions of place, space and emplacement.

Northern Vertex Receives Exchange Approval for Joint Venture Agreement for Lemhi Gold-Silver Property in Idaho and Closes $13.3M Non-Brokered Private Placement
Nov 28, 2011 Share:
Resumption of Trading
Vancouver, B.C. - Northern Vertex Capital Inc. (TSX.V:NEE) ("Northern Vertex") is pleased to report that it has received approval from the TSX Venture Exchange regarding the joint venture agreement to acquire up to a 75.5% interest in the Lemhi Gold Project (the "Lemhi Property") located 25 miles north of Salmon, Idaho (the "Joint Venture") and that it has closed its non-brokered private placement for gross proceeds of $13,379,500.
States Northern Vertex CEO Kenneth Berry "We are very pleased to acquire a major interest in the advanced Lemhi Gold Project and to report our corporate financing was oversubscribed, increasing from the announced total of $12.6 million to $13.3 million. The level of support and commitment from the financial community is clearly a testimony to the quality of both the Lemhi Gold Project in Idaho and Northern Vertex's advancing Moss Gold-Silver Project in Arizona."
"The financing gives us the ability to fast-track confirmation drilling and development at Lemhi, while we continue our ongoing resource expansion and near-term production initiatives at Moss. We plan on applying the same proven resource growth and development model to Lemhi that we utilized on our recent successful drill and development program on Moss, which culminated in generating a NI 43-101 compliant Gold Eqv. Resource of 590,400 ounces in less than 7 months." adds Mr. Berry.
Effective November 23, 2011, Northern Vertex issued a total of 11,634,348 units ("Units") at a price of $1.15 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of $13,379,500. Each Unit consists of one common share ("Share") of Northern Vertex and one-half of one transferable common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant a "Warrant"). Each whole Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one additional Share at a purchase price of $1.55 per Share until November 23, 2013, subject to acceleration. The expiry date of the Warrants may be accelerated, at the sole option of Northern Vertex, to 30 business days following the date on which Northern Vertex gives notice that its common shares have had a closing price on the TSX Venture Exchange for 21 consecutive trading days of CAN$2.00 or greater. Cash finder's fees in the aggregate amount of $865,231 are payable to arm's length parties in relation to the private placement. All of the securities issued in the private placement will have a hold period which expires March 24, 2012. The net proceeds from the private placement will be used to finance the Lemhi acquisition, to conduct a 30,000 foot drill program on the Lemhi Gold Project, for additional work on Northern Vertex's other properties and for general working capital purposes.
Northern Vertex's common shares will resume trading on the TSX Venture Exchange effective Monday, November 28, 2011.
Lemhi Property Joint Venture
The Lemhi Property was recently assembled from four underlying property holders to form a newly consolidated advanced exploration opportunity. The Lemhi Property includes Yamana's interest in the Humbug Gold Deposit and has a historical NI 43-101 non-compliant resource of 32.36 million short tons at a grade of 0.0375 ounces per short ton for 1.21 million contained ounces of gold, as reported by Pincock Allen & Holt in 1996 (the "PAH Report"). The PAH Report calculated a NI 43-101 noncompliant Geological Resource on the Humbug based on 277 reverse circulation holes totaling 157,000 feet with a cut off grade of 0.0112 opt. In 1996 Kappes, Cassiday & Associates conducted a noncompliant Pre-Feasibility Study on the Humbug deposit based on 15,675,000 tons of ore, and an approximate 6-year mine life. Northern Vertex cautions that a qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimate, or has substantiated any data as it pertains to a pre-feasibility study, as current mineral resources or mineral reserves, therefore, it should not be relied upon on as actual resource or reserve estimates, and should be construed only as conceptual in nature. The Company is treating the historical estimate only a guideline to determining potential future mineral resources or mineral reserves, and not as current mineral resources or mineral reserves. A current 43- 101 Technical Report on the Lemhi Property, will be filed on SEDAR within the next 45 days. Northern Vertex will immediately complete its initial funding commitment to the Joint Venture totaling US$7.65 million, of which US$500,000 has already been advanced, Northern Vertex will have a 51% interest in the Joint Venture and has the option to increase its joint venture interest to 75.5%. Based on the PAH Report of 1.21 million historical resource ounces at the Lemhi Project and Northern Vertex's pro rata acquisition cost of US$4,845,000, Northern Vertex is acquiring its initial 51% interest in the Lemhi Property at less than $8 per historical resource ounce of gold.
The Terms of the Joint Venture and Acquisition
Northern Vertex and Idaho State Gold Company, LLC ("ISGC", a private Idaho investment company) entered into joint venture agreements dated as of September 21, 2011 (the "JV Agreement") and formed the joint venture entity named Lemhi Gold Trust, LLC ("JV LLC"). JV LLC has consolidated and acquired the Lemhi Property from four underlying vendors for a total acquisition cost of US$9.5 million (the "Acquisition"), of which:
S$5.75 million was paid on September 23, 2011 (the "Closing Date"),
US$2.65 million is payable on the first anniversary of the Closing Date,
US$150,000 is payable on the second and third anniversaries of the Closing Date; and
US$200,000 is payable on the fourth through seventh anniversaries of the Closing Date.
On funding its initial commitment of US$7.65 million, Northern Vertex will be the operator at the Lemhi Property and Northern Vertex will undertake an initial drill program of at least 30,000 feet to validate and expand the historic resource. Northern Vertex and ISGC have agreed to a total initial funding commitment totaling US$15 million that will cover the cost of the Acquisition and the initial work program in connection with the 30,000 foot drill program.
Non-Compliant 43-101 Historical Resources and Reserves
The above-noted historical resource estimate is mentioned for illustrative purposes only and is not compliant with National Instrument 43-101 ("NI 43-101"). The reliability of historical estimates is unknown but considered relevant by Northern Vertex. These are historical resource estimates prepared prior to the implementation of NI 43-101 and use terminology not compliant with current reporting standards. Northern Vertex has not made any attempt to re-classify the estimates according to current NI 43-101 standards of disclosure or the CIM definitions. Northern Vertex is not treating this estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves as defined in NI 43-101. These historical estimates should not be relied upon and were authored by Pincock Allen & Holt, Geological and Resource Model of the Humbug Deposit dated February 8, 1996.
Northern Vertex is a gold exploration and development company operating principally in the United States and Canada. The Company comprises an experienced management group with a strong background in all aspects of acquisition, exploration, development and financing of precious metal mining projects. The Company's stated mandate is to acquire, develop and advance asset-based gold projects that demonstrate near term production potential and long-term sustainable growth.

Posted in Judge Gold revealed. Am I anti-semitic?
I chased Judge Gold down to the Long Beach courthouse where he had been assigned to sit (read My Essay to L.A. Daily Journal), to beg him not to evict me, and to show evidence that Lynn had made a generous offer to me to keep my home, but that her attorney was not following through, and that Lynn was filming in England, and that Judge Gold said he would recall her if necessary, and the case could end here and now. I believe that Lynn made a sincere offer to me, evidenced by her attorney's email which I provided to the court.
Everything could have been resolved.
I could have stayed in my home, I could have formed a new living working out of my studio on the property, I could have completed ownership of the Entrada cottage in the trust I had started for little Zachary, while sharing custody of him in my house up the road with the swimming pool and tennis court which we both made full use of, and continued his violin and piano lessons in my living room.
Judge Gold ignored me and my Pleading, which was a heart-felt pleading indeed.
He had up his sleeve that I should pay for the attorney costs of the trial and the time of the court, not Lynn the celebrity, and the only easy way to do this was to force me out by standing in my shoes and signing away my beautiful home to get his hands on the escrow, out of which money could be freely taken without even notice or copies to me, according to the law.
Ultimately, I lost my home (just after 9/11), and Zach lost his home, also his father (who by now had a prison record); I lost my New York apartment to Lynn – who doesn't need it exclusively, she lives in Connecticut with our children, estranged from me because they don't understand – I lost my wealth, much of my possessions, my history; I lost my friends, my Topanga neighborhood, my reputation. The American dream. Gone.
To read the story of the breakup of his own marriage in 1968 and to compare the details with what he did to me, is striking. Was he perhaps punishing himself?
