Esther was almost certainly first reported in the Sydney courts on 3 June 1866, when she was charged with riotous behaviour in the streets and was sent to gaol for forty-eight hours.19 On 17 January 1871, she was finally brought to court20 by sergeant CONDICK, who stated that he had arrested her in Pitt Street that morning. She was charged under the Industrial Schools' Act with being under sixteen years of age and having no visible lawful means of support.21 Esther stated in court that she had no parents or friends. John F. SHERIDAN, a Roman Catholic clergyman, stated that he'd known Esther from the Randwick Asylum,22 from where she had been apprenticed to Mr. HAWDEN of Mullenara on 15 August 1868. He believed that she was about fifteen years old and couldn't be sixteen. He further stated that on 22 December Esther had been returned from her apprenticeship and as the directors didn't know what to do with her, applied to him, and, on 3 March 1870, he managed to get her into the House of the Good Shepherd. Esther had become incorrigible so had been expelled the morning of her court appearance and SHERIDAN considered that Newcastle was the best place for her.
Esther was admitted to Newcastle on 19 January 1871,23 but her family details are missing from the Entrance Book as the records for this period have been lost therefore no details of her family, religion, education or apprenticeship can be identified using this source. Her first entry into Randwick as Esther Maria HALL, indicated that on 14 August 1861, she was nine. At this time she entered the Randwick Asylum with her sister, Elizabeth, and her two brothers, James and Edward. The children were recorded as Catholic. Randwick records confirmed SHERIDAN's statements and documented Esther's return to Randwick on 22 December 1868, at the age of thirteen. Her first entry into Randwick and her subsequent birth records prove that Esther was at least seventeen and should not have been sent to Newcastle. It is considered likely that SHERIDAN knew this but made a genuine attempt to get Esther off the streets of Sydney.
Because it was a requirement that Esther spend twelve months at the school after her arrest she transferred to Biloela in May 1871. She appeared on the transfer lists as a fifteen-year-old Catholic.24 No discharge information has yet been identified for Esther and her name does not appear on the CSIL index. It is therefore believed that she was released by LUCAS without permission from the Colonial Secretary into an apprenticeship. She would have been eligible for apprenticeship by January 1872, yet she was still identified by LUCAS as 'In the Institution' in his April 1872 list.25 School records would have identified her as 18 by 1874 and by this time there was a new superintendent who followed discharge directions.
It is thought likely that on 15 June 1874, as Esther Maria DARLING, Esther was imprisoned for four months for vagrancy26 but no court appearance has been located for this sentence. It is believed that Esther died in Sydney in 1876 at the recorded age of twenty-one.27 This registration has not been viewed.
Esther's age reported in the newspapers and the Randwick Asylum records match her baptism record from 1853. Her siblings who were also admitted to Randwick match records for her baptised siblings. Esther was born on 27 March and was baptised on 17 April 1853, by R. WALSH at the Roman Catholic Church at Queanbeyan.28 Her parents were recorded as Henry HALL and Maria BURNS who were married by John KAVANAGH at St Mary's, Sydney, on 9 December 1850, as Henry HALL and Maria (X) BURNE. Only Maria was Catholic.29 The witnesses were Henry (X) LODER and Bridget (X) LODER.
Henry had arrived as an unassisted immigrant aboard the St George in 1846. He was described on the indent as a gentleman who intended to remain in NSW.30 Henry was working as a constable in the Queanbeyan Police when his daughter Jane was born in 185731 but in 1860 he was arrested for horse-stealing32 from George NYE. He was reported to have gone towards Lake George.33 Henry was arrested and was sentenced to eighteen months in Goulburn Gaol in February 1860.34 His records from Goulburn gaol confirmed his ship of arrival and indicated that he was a coach painter who had been born in Maidstone, Kent, and was a Protestant.35 Earlier admissions to Goulburn in late 1852 and Darlinghurst in 1848 again confirmed his ship of arrival but identified the year of arrival as 1847 and indicated that he had been born in about 1822.36 Henry's death was registered in Goulburn in 1894. The NSW BDM Index indicated that his mother was Sarah.37
After Henry's arrest for horse-stealing Maria was unable to maintain her six children so in August 1861, the Police Magistrate of Queanbeyan sent her four older children to Randwick. Maria's death was registered in Goulburn in 1908.38
Esther's sister, Jane, may have been cared for locally and was placed in service at about the age of ten in about 1866. She was killed in a horse riding accident near Queanbeyan in 1874, and was recorded as Jane Ann SMITH39 at the inquest. The Queanbeyan Age subsequently received a letter to correct the error.40
Elizabeth was apprenticed from Randwick in August 1865 to Mr John CUNNINGHAM of Bathurst. In March 1874, Edward was apprenticed to Mr M. RYAN of Palmer Island on the North Coast and in January 1867, James was apprenticed to Kiama on the South Coast. It is unknown whether any of these children ever met their parents again but they did attempt to reunite and Edward and James were successful in locating each other. In August 1884, a Mrs GREIGG from Wyndham Street, Alexandria was seeking contact with James Thomas HALL and Edward Henry HALL, natives of Queanbeyan.41 By September Thomas was advertising for Edward and Elizabeth to contact him so it is clear that at this stage the children had not returned to Queanbeyan after their discharge from Randwick.42 It is thought that Mrs GREIGG may be a sister but she is not yet identified. In light of the order of the advertisements, she is unlikely to be Elizabeth. Edward died in June 190443 and James on 13 August 1915.44

It snowed last night. Well, I didn't see that coming. I am sure not ready for it. I still have to clean the eaves.

My family has a 10 year old dog named Dakota. He is as far as we can tell, part German Shepherd and part Hound and has always had issues with his skin. We have had to take him to the vet numerous times for treatment when we notice he has given himself a hot spot. They usually prescribe an antibiotic for the infection and ointment to help the wound.
A couple of weeks ago, we discovered a new hot spot that had already begun to turn green from infection right after I received my first order of YLO.
The first time I applied the Lavender oil on Dakota, he didn't enjoy the process most likely because it was so sore to begin with. However after that he would lift up his head so we could reach the area on the base of his neck. I used several drops of Lavender on the hot spot for two days twice a day and on the third day noticed that the wound was almost completely gone!
The morning of the fourth day his skin was back to normal. Amazing.

Superheroes That Should Be Introduced in the MCU After Phase 3
thegaminggeek / March 30, 2018
The Marvel Cinematic Universe has been around for a decade. The actors portraying some of the biggest MCU characters are all a decade older and more than one has expressed thought of moving on from the franchise. Marvel Studios has already started introducing a new wave of characters such as Black Panther, Doctor Strange, a new version of Spider-Man and the yet-to-be-seen Captain Marvel. But will these characters be enough to carry the torch after the MCU's first generation of heroes leave?
I don't think so, and I think the people behind Marvel Studios would agree, which is why I am certain that they will be introducing new superheroes once Infinity War and its sequel is over. I've got a few characters in mind that would be a good fit in the MCU and I'd like to talk about them today. Please note that I had to work within self-imposed restrictions when I selected these characters; I didn't choose any of the obvious characters like anyone licensed to Fox or those who are in Marvel's shows for Netflix, Freeform, ABC and so on. So characters like Daredevil, Cloak and Dagger, and the New Warriors won't be in this list. With that said, let's begin!
I already wrote about Nova around three years ago and I think the perfect time to introduce him into the MCU is right after the dust from Infinity War settles. Based on the Infinity War trailers, Thanos WILL get a hold of the Power Stone which is currently in possession of the Nova Corps. This is all just guesswork – it looks like the Nova Corps defense will fall against Thanos.
Similar to how the origins of the Vulture was tied to the Battle of New York in the first Avengers film, Nova' s origins can be directly tied into Thanos' assault on Xandar. In the Annihilation comic book storyline, the Annihilation Wave basically obliterated Xandar, leaving Nova as the sole survivor of both the planet and the Nova Corps. This also resulted in Nova wielding the entirety of the Nova Force, a cosmic energy force that powers the Nova Corps members, further augmenting his enhanced physical capabilities even more.
Originally a part of the first New Warriors lineup, Nova isn't part of the New Warriors TV series that is currently in development so this means he's free to be used for the MCU. He has also proven to have enough staying power as a solo character, having prominent roles in Marvel Comic's big intergalactic events.
Hercules and Amadeus Cho
Introducing another mythological god into the MCU may seem redundant as we already have Thor in the universe but hear me out – the Infinity War trailer hints at Thanos attacking the Asgardians and quite frankly, I don't see them surviving that. Chris Hemsworth's contract with Marvel Studios only lasts up to Avengers 4 and while he has not been as vocal about moving on from his Marvel superhero role as Chris Evans is, Marvel Studios could possibly move on from the Thor character now that he's had his trilogy.
That gives us some room for a similar character based on mythology, just Greek instead of Norse. Hercules actually fits the comedic brute role more than Thor does, and Thor: Ragnarok's success at the box office shows that there is a market for a more comedic take on superheroes.
To further differentiate Hercules from Thor, the franchise can add the eighth smartest person in the world, Amadeus Cho, as a major supporting character or even as a co-lead. The dynamic between Hercules and Amadeus Cho was refreshing at the time and their popularity even put the pair at the forefront of Marvel's Chaos War event. In the MCU, the duo can serve as the franchise's "buddy cop" characters with a brains/brawn twist, with Hercules continuing Thor's fish out of water schtick. Amadeus Cho already has a tie-in to the MCU; we've already seen his comic book mother, Helen Cho, in Avengers: Age of Ultron so it shouldn't be hard to introduce him.
I might be in the minority in this but I actually thought that The Sentry was an interesting character – before Bendis tried to shove him down our throats, that is. A man with powers rivalling Superman's, the Sentry had an intriguing flaw: his main archenemy and equal in terms of power, the Void, is actually another side of him, a force that balances out whatever good the Sentry does. The first Sentry mini-series presented him as a long-time superhero who had to make the world, including himself, forget who he really was to prevent the Void from causing more havoc.
Unlike the other MCU characters, the Sentry can work really well as a one-and-done character/film. But Marvel Studios can also explore the Sentry as a long term character – a Superman pastiche who is destined to forever deal with himself as an enemy. His comic book origin would also work well in introducing him to the MCU; we (the audience) don't "remember" him being a part of the franchise even though he's been there since Day One because he had to make everyone forget who he was.
Finally, we have the Thunderbolts – a superhero team that formed after the Avengers and the Fantastic Four "died" at the hands of Onslaught. They can serve the same purpose in the MCU; it's very possible for the Avengers to no longer exist after Infinity War, and the Thunderbolts can be the replacement team until after the Avengers are reformed/resurrected.
The twist with the original Thunderbolts is that they're actually supervillains pretending to be superheroes, with the objective of gaining the world's trust and then world domination after. And this can work in the MCU – we still have good villains left alive like Zemo (the original leader of the Thunderbolts in the comics), the Vulture, the Abomination, and so on. Also, Marvel Studios can easily fill up the roster with characters a la Suicide Squad flashbacks – villains that weren't featured in previous films due to their stories not worth telling in a full length feature. We can then follow the original story arc of the Thunderbolts, with the team being split between the ones who have had a change of heart due to their heroics and the ones who still want to remain as bad guys.
Another take on the Thunderbolts would be to follow the Hawkeye-led version (straight up heroes featuring reformed villains) or the Luke Cage version (villains forced into performing heroic deeds). In the MCU, we can have either Hawkeye or War Machine serve as the leader of the team, two established characters that can continue to be a part of the MCU.
And there you have it – characters who I think are good enough to shine in the superhero blockbuster spotlight, characters who can further add to the new wave of MCU characters that have already been introduced. What do you think about my list? Are there any characters whom I missed out on? Let us know by leaving a comment or two below!

The bad news is that the ways enterprises lose intellectual property are so numerous it's hard to pick out just a few.
The good news? Well, employees are responsible for a huge percentage (probably a majority, most experts believe) of this data loss. So if you're on your game, you can do quite a bit to plug the leaks.
1. Poor password practices. Sure, you've heard it before. But workers keep creating weak passwords, so we'll keep reminding you. Passwords should be long; unique to a given account; and never, ever shared or written down.
2. Lost or stolen hardware. Laptops, phones, and tablets go missing at a ridiculous rate. And when they do, chances are they have intellectual property that could be of use to a competitor or even a hostile nation-state. That's why you should password-protect your devices, and keep a careful eye on them when traveling.
3. Loose lips at confabs. When employees attend industry or academic conferences, they often drop their guard because it's so relaxing to be among their peers. This is a mistake, and espionage artists know it! When you attend such conferences, keep in mind that those "peers" you're comparing notes with may actually be spies.
4. Spearphishing/BEC attacks. Business Email Compromise attacks, which are essentially the same thing as targeted email campaigns, have become big business, responsible for many of the worst data breaches of the past several years. Remember, you don't have to be a corporate officer to be targeted by phishers; what they're after is your network logon and password. Now more than ever, it's important to be leery of requests for this info.

The description: "There's a laughing gas leak in the operating room and the doctors are feeling a little . . . buzzed. In this adult twist on the iconic Operation game, players are the doctor and will use the tweezers to remove silly ailments from Cavity Sam — but this time, they'll have to do it while performing the stunt shown on the Challenge card. The card might say to remove parts without using your thumbs, or while getting tickled. If the tweezers touch the sides of the openings, the buzzer will sound! The player to get the most parts without getting buzzed before the timer runs out wins!"

Klanec pri Komnu () is a small village west of Komen in the Littoral region of Slovenia close to the border with Italy.

Name
The name of the settlement was changed from Klanec to Klanec pri Komnu in 1953.

Cultural heritage

There is a stone monument in the center of the village commemorating Hungarian soldiers killed in the First World War. The monument stands on a stepped plinth; it consists of a cube engraved with the Hungarian coat of arms and the years 1915–1916 topped by an obelisk. It is surrounded by small pillars, of which two are preserved originals.

Our laughter can wound or caress. It's hard to laugh with real amusement at our enemy because it feels like embracing them. We don't want to approve.
I invite you to do so now. Of course, this cartoon isn't a bit funny. Is it?
Your speech mentioned my remarks about the proposal for world "government" in the early drafts of what had been intended as a binding Copenhagen Treaty. These proposals were not, as you suggested, a "conspiracy theory" from the "far right" with "zero basis in evidence". Your staff will find them in paragraphs 36-38 of the main text of Annex 1 to the 15 September draft of the Treaty. The word "government" appears twice at paragraph 38. After much adverse publicity in democratic countries, including Australia, the proposals were reluctantly dropped before Copenhagen.
You say I am one of "those who argue that any multilateral action is by definition evil". On the contrary: my first question is whether any action at all is required, to which – as I shall demonstrate – the objective economic and scientific answer is No. Even if multilateral action were required, which it is not, national governments in the West are by tradition democratically elected. Therefore, a fortiori, transnational or global governments should also be made and unmade by voters at the ballot-box. The climate ought not to be used as a shoddy pretext for international bureaucratic-centralist dictatorship. We committed Europeans have had more than enough of that already with the unelected but all-powerful Kommissars of the hated EU, who make nine-tenths of our laws by decree (revealingly, they call them "Directives" or "Commission Regulations"). The Kommissars (that is the official German word for them) inflict their dictates upon us regardless of what the elected European or any other democratic Parliament says or wishes. Do we want a worldwide EU? No.
You say I am one of "those who argue that climate change does not represent a global market failure". Yet it is only recently that opinion sufficient to constitute a market signal became apparent in the documents of the IPCC, which is, however, a political rather than a scientific entity. There has scarcely been time for a "market failure". Besides, corporations are falling over themselves to cash in on the giant financial fraud against the little guy that carbon taxation and trading have already become in the goody-two-shoes EU – and will become in Australia if you get your way.


The Rival 500 is a great MOBA/MMO gaming mouse with its innovative button layout, and I'd definitely recommend it for day to day office use as well.
We've spoken a few times here at Techaeris about getting a leg up on fellow gamers with better game controllers, keyboards, and mice. MOBA/MMO gamers are no exception and while there are a number of multi-button gaming mice on the market, the SteelSeries Rival 500 takes a new approach to the multi-button gaming mouse design. Our Rival 500 review takes a look at what SteelSeries has done differently, and if it's an improvement over the usual 12-button grid layout.
The SteelSeries Rival 500 MOBA/MMO gaming mouse is a bit wider than your usual mouse, but that's not anything really new to gamers. When I first saw the Rival 500 in the announcement press release, my first reaction was to wonder why this hasn't been done before. I've tried the 12-button layout mice in the past but could never get the hang of it, and at a first look, I felt like SteelSeries was on to something with the Rival 500.
The SteelSeries Rival 500 top view.
Before we proceed too much further, I'll be referring to the buttons with SteelSeries' naming conventions as I describe them.
The top of the Rival 500 mouse has your standard left (B1) and right (B2) mouse buttons with a scroll wheel/button (B3) with LED lighting in between that also has a tilt left/right function (B14/B15). Another button (B10) sits just about in the middle of the mouse and by default is your CPI toggle button. This is where things start to get interesting. To the left of the standard left mouse button are two more buttons (B11 and B12), and there is another top button (B13) to the right of the standard right mouse button. Hopefully I haven't lost you yet because there's much more to come.
Rival 500 button layout top view.
On the left side of the Rival 500, where your thumb normally rests, you'll notice that there is no 12-button layout that is pretty much standard for MOBA/MMO gaming mice. Instead, the center area has a textured double-injected rubber grip surface which is surrounded by five more buttons. Towards the front and curving around to the top of where your thumb rests, you'll find mouse button B5, beside that and right above your thumb is B4, and beside that curving towards the back of the mouse is mouse button B9. Still with me? The back half of the textured thumb rest is where you'll find mouse button B8, but the real interesting configuration here is two buttons that curve out and allow you to rest your thumb on them. The first 1/3 of this thumb rest is button B6 and the rest is button B7. If you flip the mouse over, you'll see a switch. This is the side button lock switch and when it shows red, the bottom two buttons (B6 & B7) are locked and unusable, when it's green, these two buttons are fully functional.

The right side of the mouse has another double-injected rubber textured grip surface. The rear portion of the top of the mouse features the SteelSeries logo, which also has LED lighting, and just under this is a removable 3D printable nameplate with the Rival wordmark on it. The bottom of the mouse is where you'll find the Pixart 3360 Optical Sensor, as well as three plastic gliding feet — one long one that goes the width of the mouse near the front, and two smaller ones on each side near the back.
There's definitely an ample number of buttons on your mouse, we'll get into that in a bit. As far as comfort goes the Rival 500 is very comfortable to use, and in fact I've been using it for more than 8 hours a day five days a week and haven't felt any cramping or adverse effects. The contoured shape of the mouse is pretty bang on, and the textured grips are in just the right spots for added grip.
My only complaint about the mouse is that it comes with your typical mouse cable and I would have liked to see a braided cable or even a detachable dual cable option like the SteelSeries Rival 700 has which allows you to choose your length and which cable type you'd rather use. It's a minor gripe and doesn't affect the performance of the mouse at all, but it's definitely something I would have liked to see.
Like its sibling, the Rival 700, the Rival 500 takes advantage of the SteelSeries Engine 3 software. Once downloaded, it can be used to customize the buttons and sensitivity on your mouse, as well as customize the glow colours of the SteelSeries logo on the back and scroll wheel, and create macros. In addition to the default configuration, you can set up multiple configurations for each game. The customization is pretty deep, and you shouldn't have any issues configuring your mouse for multiple games — or programs (more on that in a few) — exactly the way you want. In addition to setting up multiple configurations, you can specify which games or applications trigger that configuration at launch.
The Rival 500 also supports Gamesense which provides tactile feedback based on events that happen in game, however like I mentioned in the Rival 700 review only three games currently support Gamesense — Counter Strike: GO, DOTA 2, or Minecraft (through the use of a mod). That being said, the key marketing features of this mouse is the button layout, but it would be handy having additional Gamesense support for more games. You can, however, set up Tactile Cooldowns which are very helpful in MOBA/MMOs. In addition to setting up an alert that counts down and alerts you with a click, bump, pulse, or vibration when you press a specific mouse button, you can also bind these Tactile Cooldowns to keyboard buttons and you'll receive the tactile alert on your mouse when the timer is up. If you play MOBAs or MMOs, you can see how useful this would be for helping alert you to when your cooldowns on specific skills are up. Tactile Cooldowns are easy to set up and you can specify the button/keystroke that triggers the timer, the duration, the vibration type, if it starts on button/key down or up, and if the trigger resets the cooldown.
At a glance, the SteelSeries Engine 3 looks confusing, but it is pretty straightforward and easy to use if you take your time.
With 15 buttons, you'd think the Rival 500 would be complex to use, and it can be, but it can also be as simple to use as you choose. Simply assign the appropriate actions, keystrokes, or macros to your specific buttons and away you go. Each configuration supports two CPI sensitivities which can easily be toggled on the fly with the CPI Toggle (B10), or any other button you assign it to.
Starting off with a gaming example, I configured my mouse for use with Diablo III — not exactly a MOBA or MMO but still a game that can benefit from having actions assigned to buttons. In fact, I went a little overboard and assigned pretty much everything I could to the mouse and I could pretty much play using only the mouse — after some practice of course. I assigned the 1 through 4 actions to various buttons, as well as the healing key, and also assigned the Tactile Cooldowns to each of these — especially helpful with the healing potion cooldown. It really was an easy and straightforward process, and as I said, I went overboard and assigned the inventory, progress, and other shortcuts to the mouse as well. In the end, I took a more mixed keyboard/mouse approach and found a happy medium between the two.
My configuration for Heroes of the Storm was much the same, although with a different configuration, and in fact there were fewer keystrokes I ended up mapping to the mouse for that game. In both cases, after a bit of time, I did feel a bit faster with certain actions as a simple roll of the finger or thumb felt more effective than having to move my finger over 3 or 4 keys on the keyboard.
A total of 15 buttons allow for some heavy customization/key binding for both games and applications alike.
Now to explain the title of this review — how the heck can a gaming mouse improve productivity? As I mentioned in the software section, you can assign a configuration to launch with any APPLICATION installed on your computer. After having spent a couple days with the Rival 500, I got to thinking and quickly bound CTRL+C (copy), CTRL+SHIFT+V (paste without formatting), and CTRL+I functions to the additional mouse buttons to the left and right of the standard left and right mouse buttons. These are keystrokes I commonly use each day, and I quickly became so accustomed to using them that I started to feel a bit lost when using another computer with a regular mouse.
Taking it one step further, I set up a number of Photoshop shortcuts that I use quite often to some of the extra mouse buttons as well, and again felt like I was able to work a bit faster by using a single mouse button click to export an image or even run a batch process on images.
The Rival 500 is definitely easy to set up, and very easy to use in both games and other applications.
The SteelSeries Rival 500 responds nicely, and as it is heavily customizable you can really get it to perform as you like. Once you have it set up the way you want, button clicks were smooth, and Tactile Alerts were noticeable without being distracting. The Rival 500 quickly became my mouse of choice for all types of gaming, as well as day to day office work.
The Rival 500 mouse is comfortable, easy to use, and has excellent performance.
With an MSRP of $79.99USD, the Rival 500 is definitely fairly priced and whether used for gaming or office work, offers great value for the price.
There's no doubt the Rival 500 is a great MOBA/MMO gaming mouse with its innovative button layout, but I'd definitely recommend it for day to day office use as well. The button layout feels natural and is easy to pick up, and every button is easily accessible with your thumb, index, or middle finger. The SteelSeries Rival 500 is definitely a Top Pick of 2016 in my books.
Easy to use, great customization features, comfortable. Has the ability to bind games and applications to configuration setups. Useful for both gaming and office applications.
A braided cable, or swappable cables like the Rival 700, would be a nice addition. Only three games work with Gamesense.
There's no doubt the Rival 500 is a great MOBA/MMO gaming mouse with its innovative button layout, but I'd definitely recommend it for day to day office use as well.

LAST REVIEWED: 29 September 2017
Severe reactions to experiences such as combat and railway accidents have been described since the mid-19th century by numerous physicians, including Sigmund Freud and Pierre Janet. These descriptions include two types of characteristic symptoms: dissociative symptoms, in which there is a general disturbance in normal mental functions, such as memory, consciousness, time estimation, sense of reality, and identity, and reexperiencing symptoms, in which the traumatic event is vividly relived as though it were happening all over again in the present. Despite this early recognition, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) was formally defined only in the third edition of the American Psychiatric Association's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders: DSM-III (Washington, DC: American Psychiatric Association, 1980). Prior to this, exposure to stress was assumed to produce only short-term problems in adjustment. In the DSM-III, PTSD required exposure to "a recognizable stressor that would evoke significant symptoms of distress in almost everyone" (p. 238) and was "outside the range of normal human experience" (p. 236). In addition four symptoms had to be present reflecting reexperiencing of the traumatic event, numbing and detachment, and a more pervasive change in arousal or emotions. The introduction of the disorder in the DSM-III was strongly influenced by studies of combat veterans and women in violent relationships, which suggested the existence of more long-lasting psychiatric conditions, variously termed "combat neurosis," "rape trauma syndrome," or "battered women syndrome." The PTSD diagnosis was designed to subsume these syndromes and capture what was considered to be an essentially normal response to any overwhelming trauma. This made it unlike other psychiatric disorders, which all implied some vulnerability on the part of the person who succumbed to it. The definition was refined in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders: DSM-III-R published in 1987, which introduced more symptoms and required at least one reexperiencing symptom (e.g., intrusive memories or nightmares), three avoidance or numbing symptoms (e.g., avoidance of reminders of the traumatic event or loss of interest in activities), and two hyperarousal symptoms (e.g., exaggerated startle or irritability). Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders: DSM-IV, introduced in 1994, retained a similar structure. The 2013 Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders: DSM-5 increased the number of symptoms from seventeen to twenty and reorganized them into four symptom clusters, reexperiencing, avoidance, negative alterations in cognition and mood, and alterations in arousal and reactivity. In 1992 PTSD also appeared in another major international classification system, the tenth edition of the World Health Organization's International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10) (Geneva, Switzerland: World Health Organization, 1992–1994). This formulation placed more emphasis on "episodes of repeated reliving of the trauma in intrusive memories ('flashbacks') or dreams" and also identified avoidance, numbing, and hyperarousal as central features. International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11) (Geneva, Switzerland: World Health Organization, 2019) greatly simplified the PTSD diagnosis, requiring one out of two reexperiencing symptoms, one out of two avoidance symptoms, and one out of two sense of threat symptoms, along with impairment in functioning.
The history of the recognition of posttraumatic reactions starting in the 19th century is described in a number of publications (Weisaeth 2014, Wilson 1994). One of the most influential 20th-century theorists has been the psychiatrist Mardi J. Horowitz, whose work Horowitz 2011 on general reactions to stressors such as bereavement played a major role in the original formulation of PTSD in the American Psychiatric Association's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders: DSM-III (Washington, DC: American Psychiatric Association, 1980). As of the early 21st century, PTSD and its close relative, acute stress disorder, remain the only psychiatric disorders to specify a causal agent, and PTSD continues to be a controversial diagnosis. The main criticisms are that the disorder was introduced for political rather than scientific reasons, that it inappropriately medicalizes normal human reactions, that it gives too much weight to the stressful event and not enough to the person, that it is not distinct from other recognized disorders, and that its symptom structure is too complex (Brewin 2003; Rosen and Lilienfeld 2008; Spitzer, et al. 2007; Young 1995).

Has anyone heard about these jedi churches poping up everywhere?
Jeez. That is too far. Sure there are obsessed fans, but this is ridiculous.
yea they're pretty serious about it, since Jedi is now an unofficially recognized religion.
Wow...People will follow anything nowa days.
Wow. I would like to go to one once just to see what it's like. So what do they do, try to use the Force? Or are they just about the Jedi values?
My guess, just the jedi Values. It IS very creapy though.
Open the page to number 337: "...And Yoda said, let there be lightsabers, and he saw that they were good..."
Go in Mando armor and say you want revenge.
If there was one nearby me, and I had my armor done, I'd totally go. Just sit in the back and stare down anyone who looks. Do they were robes or something?
And He shun down upon Luke and spoketh "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try."
After Luke had whined Leia gave him the plans.
Yo thats crazy! I'd go at least once to see how nuts they really were. Then when they learned i knew more than they did, they'd kick me out for blasphemy.
I'd kill to see any of us go in full Beskar'gam and... find out if they were weak to the dark side.
where could you find out where they are? if theres one here in miami, im definitely crashing it.
That'd be funny if someone went there as Indiana Jones, with a friend in Boba Fett armor...hillarious.
do they hold sevice on sunday or what?
The Jedi church has no official doctrine or scripture. The Jedi church recognizes that all living things share a living force and that all people have an innate knowledge of what is right and wrong, and the Jedi Church celebrates this like no other religion.
There is one all powerful force that binds the entire universe together. It is "an energy field created by all living things. It surrounds us, penetrates us, and binds the galaxy together". This is a concept that most religions of the world concur with. Some refer to it as their deity, some refer to it as a life force, but the one thing nearly all religions agree with, is that there exists a single unifying force.
There are 2 sides to the force, the dark side and the light side. "Beware of the dark side... The dark side leads to fear. Fear leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering". Good versus Evil is a common element through most religions. The issues of good versus evil, right versus wrong permeate through the doctrines of all religions. Most religions attempt to state what is right and wrong, to establish their moral code. Sometimes religions make codes that don't reach a great consensus. Outsiders, and sometime insiders, begin to judge their religious code by something more powerful, something more innate, an innate ability to know what is right and wrong. This is the Jedi's belief, that morality, good and evil, are all axioms of the force, and that we must listen to the force so that we will know the right thing to do.
Can good exist without evil? The Jedi believe that good and evil are only axioms of the all powerful and unifying force. The force contains all that is good and all that is bad. We all are free and sentient beings who have the capability to do good or evil. It is our choice of direction that determines if we do good or evil. The existence of good and evil is necessary for freewill.
So in summary, listen to the force, and beware the dark side!
The force has always existed and always will.
Our faith in the force existed well before the fictional Star Wars movies brought popular recognition to the terminology and concepts that our members always innately held, but had difficultly describing in a shared forum.
When the movement to answer Jedi to the religion question in the NZ census began, it was incredible to see how quickly word spread, and just how many people embraced the new popular name of their shared innate religion. With such immediacy, people from all around the world followed suit, now having an obvious and common name for their deeply held religious and moral convictions. It is the speed and numbers of people involved in the census movement, that show just how powerful the concepts of the Jedi Faith are.
The terminology used by the Jedi Church were introduced by the fictional Star Wars movies, and often references are made to the movies by our members, as a conceptual demonstration of how some might ascribe to the higher levels of a Jedi faith, in a far away land, a long time ago. The fact remains, that these concepts merely reflect a deep held innate morality, that we all have inside us, and now we have some common terminology and place to share our thoughts with each other. This morality existed prior to the movies. The movies do not in any way legitimise nor negate the legitimacy of the Jedi Church. They are merely a discussion point.
The Jedi Church neither confirm nor deny that George Lucas is a member of the Jedi Church. We do not mind if our members deny their involvement in our church should they seek to avoid persecution.
The Jedi Church movement is now progressing to gain legal status as a separate legal entity just like any other corner Church congregation. We have already received confirmation that Jedi themed marriages may be conducted by registered celebrants (registered cellebrants with the Department of Internal Affairs in NZ), in a manor no different, nor less recognised in law than any Christian marriage or marriage of any other religion or denomination.
Is the Jedi Religion Fiction?
Is the Jedi religion fiction? Many religions claim to be the one and only true religion, thus necessitating that all other religions are fictitious. In addition, although many religions claim to speak the word of God, but the truth is they are only the written word of prophets or followers of the religion. There is no way to prove or deny that what was written was the word of God. Several other religions openly admit that their text is not the word of God, and that it is only a prescribed behavior or a philosophy of life (e.g. Buddhism, Scientology). Most non fiction is a discussion of science and life, of things that can be observed, quantified and readily challenged for its truth and authenticity. But not religion. Any religion put to scrutiny is merely words on paper, with no ability to confirm its authenticity. The Jedi church makes no denial that its name and terminology originates from a fictitious past, but the concepts and ideals that are identified by Jedi followers are known for their innate truth. The sun existed before it was given a name, and it could be revered as a God, however, when the sun finally had a human name, it could be written about and communicated with others. The Jedi religion is just like the Sun, it existed before a popular movie gave it a name, and now that it has a name, people all over the world can share their experiences of the Jedi religion, here in the Jedi Church.
So in summary, no religion is truth. It is all just a matter of faith.
What Right Do We Have to Start a Jedi Church?
What right does anyone have to start a church? If a group of like minded people wish to organise a place and a structure to practise and discuss their religious thoughts, then that is the right of anyone who lives in a free and fair society. As soon as enough people are involved, they experience administrative issues that create costs too much for any single member to bear on their own. At that stage it is necessary that the organisation may create its own legitimate status to operate bank accounts and manage its own set of financial accounts, which are not to the betterment of any individual, and are long lasting should any founding members pass on.
Lets consider the Church of Scientology. About 60 years ago, a fiction writer named L. Ron Hubbard wrote a body of beliefs and related practices. Hubbard chose only later to characterize his writings as an "applied religious philosophy" and since it has gained legal recognition as an official religion in many western countries. Unlike the Church of Scientology, we will not harass members of the public, nor ex members of our Church. We welcome all those who wish to join, and we farewell all those who wish to leave. We only request that the Jedi Church is given every legal right and recognition that is given to other legal and recognised churches in our society, and that our members be free to practise their religion free from persecution.
Why do you charge for membership certificates?
It is free to be a member of the church, but it costs money to print and post a certificate. The certificate fee covers those costs, plus a little more for web hosting. If we get alot of memberships in a year and have any spare funds, then these will be donated to charity. The church is a non profit organisation. The certificate does not make you a Jedi, it just makes you a member of our church, no more, no less. It is up to you if you want to be a Jedi, you will still be judged by your peers as to your Jedi worthyness and your compliance to the Jedi ways.
Something inside of me shriveled up and died just now after reading some of that. I actually feel a bit ashamed to call myself a fan right now. See, this is exactly why the non-fans think we're all fat 40 year old losers who think we're really Jedi.
Thats just ridiculous. Honestly....its creepy. Sure, I enjoy SW as a general whole. Some Jedi are cool, and the possibilities of what the Force could do are interesting, as shown in Force Unleashed, etc. I'm working on my own Mando armor, and would, on a small level, call myself a Mando'ad, in that I admire their fictional culture and strength, and like to...embody some of the more admirable qualities they are described as having.
Basically, strength, bravery, being totally badass in every way. But just because they're cool. I recognize that its fiction, but the "Jedi Church" takes it far beyond "They've got good qualities that I can benefit from trying to have". Which is where the creepy factor comes into play.
Not to mention thet their "code" is them repeating everything said in the movies...I think two people at least should go to one of the Jedi Curch's sessions, one dressed up as a Mandalorian, and one as an evil Sith...Say stuff that will contradict their code or something like that.
Good thing I don't love Star Wars that much. I'd still go to that church, videotape a session, and stick it on YouTube for the lols.


[edit:] I noticed this recipe when looking for the lemon and sage ice cream, it uses the same amount of cream as my baked custard does and I can tell you the entire dish is not the 1.1g carbs as the cream alone equals 18g ( can be more depending on brand). I'm really not sure how she worked that out so wanted to update so people are not mislead.

Mmmm...might try that one tomorrow!
Would this recipe count as a snack on the Bt diet?
not with all that cream surely?
I suppose you could substitute with skim milk?????
but will hold off for treat days and after lost weight.
Baked egg custard is one of my most favorite things.
I put a sprinkle of nutmeg on top.
I use either 4-oz. custard cups, or 6-oz. canning jars.
The water in the water bath needs to come up to 1/2 - 1 inch from the top of the custard cups or jars for that wonderful custard consistency.
I sometimes put a dab of butter in the bottom of the custard cups or jars before putting in the egg mixture.
The recipe can be made into a base for a savory dish, by omitting the stevia, and putting in cheese or meat, or whatever one wishes.
Sour cream works well, too, and saves having to scald cream, and wash a pan.


To reserve your place at the table, just pay the £10 pp deposit + the booking fee.
On the day, you'll be responsible for your share of the bill, minus the £10pp deposit paid.
We look forward to sunday roasting with you!


Union Pacific's most recent trend suggests a bullish bias. One trading opportunity on Union Pacific is a Bull Put Spread using a strike $150.00 short put and a strike $140.00 long put offers a potential 6.38% return on risk over the next 37 calendar days. Maximum profit would be generated if the Bull Put Spread were to expire worthless, which would occur if the stock were above $150.00 by expiration. The full premium credit of $0.60 would be kept by the premium seller. The risk of $9.40 would be incurred if the stock dropped below the $140.00 long put strike price.
The RSI indicator is at 77.4 level which suggests that the stock is neither overbought nor oversold at this time.

Luciano Bianciardi - novelist and translator
Writer who brought contemporary American literature to Italian audiences
Luciano Bianciardi devoted
much of his life to literature
The journalist, novelist and translator Luciano Bianciardi, who was responsible for putting the work of most of the outstanding American authors of the 20th century into Italian, was born on this day in 1922 in Grosseto in Tuscany.
Bianciardi translated novels by such writers as Saul Bellow, Henry Miller, William Faulkner and Norman Mailer, who were read in the Italian language for the first time thanks to his understanding of the nuances of their style.
He also wrote novels of his own, the most successful of which was La vita agra (1962; published in English as It's a Hard Life), which was made into a film, directed by Carlo Lizzani and starring Ugo Tognazzi.
Bianciardi, whose father, Atide, was a bank cashier, developed an appreciation for learning from his mother, Adele, who was an elementary school teacher.
At the same time he acquired a lifelong fascination with Garibaldi and the Risorgimento, after his father gave him a book by a local author, Giuseppe Bandi, about Garibaldi's Expedition of the Thousand.
Bianciardi struggled to control
his drinking late in his life
Bianciardi's university education was interrupted by the Second World War. He witnessed the bombing of Foggia, where the army unit to which he was assigned had the grim task of tending to the wounded and recovering the bodies of the dead. It was not long afterwards that Italy negotiated the 1943 armistice with the Allies, for whom he then worked as an interpreter.
He resumed his education at the Scuola Normale Superiore in Pisa, where he graduated in philosophy. His circle of friends were mainly writers with liberal socialist political leanings and he was briefly a member of Il Partito d'Azione - the Action Party - until it folded in 1947. The following year he married his first wife, Adria, with whom he would have two children.
His entry into the literary world came at the invitation of the municipality of Grosseto, who asked him to reorganise their civic library, which had been badly damaged by the bombings of 1943 and the floods of the following year. Later he became the library director and a passionate promoter of cultural initiatives such as the bibliobus, a van that took books into the hamlets and and scattered farms around the town.
The cover of the Feltrinelli edition of
his most famous book, La vita agra
He began to write for newspapers and, in 1956, published his first book, The Miners of the Maremma, which followed an investigation he launched with his friend and political ally, the writer Carlo Cassola, for the newspaper L'Avanti into the harsh conditions in which the miners in this Tuscan coastal territory worked and the poverty in which their families lived, which he encountered at first hand through his bibliobus scheme.
Bianciardi over time became a prolific writer for newspapers and magazines on all manner of subjects, on political matters but also cultural topics. He was a film and television critic, and at times wrote about sport for magazines such as Guerin Sportivo.
He forged his reputation as a translator after moving to Milan to work for the Feltrinelli publishing house, developing a relationship that continued even after the company, frustrated with his poor timekeeping and clashes over their editorial policy, decided they could no longer employ him on a permanent, formal basis.
He worked his way through most of the major American writers. Among more than 100 texts that he translated into Italian were Henry Miller's Tropic of Cancer and Tropic of Capricorn, Saul Bellow's Henderson the Rain King, John Steinbeck's The Winter of Our Discontent and Travels with Charley, Jack London's John Barleycorn, J.P. Donleavy's The Ginger Man and William Faulkner's A Fable and The Mansion.
At the same time, he began to write novels of his own, his stories often having a theme of rebellion against the cultural establishment, or else the lives of ordinary Italians during the so-called 'economic miracle' years of the 1950s and '60s.

Luciano Bianciardi's book, La vita agra
La vita agra is considered his finest work, published by Rizzoli in 1962. Acclaimed by the critics, it sold 5,000 copies with a couple of weeks of its appearance in the book shops. It brought Bianciardi fame almost overnight.
His other works include Il lavoro culturale - Cultural Work; L'integrazione - Integration; La battaglia soda - The Soda-Water Battle; and Aprire il fuoco - Setting the Fire.
Bianciardi, who had a third child by Maria Jatosti, with whom he worked at Feltrinelli, bought a house at Rapallo, on the Italian Riviera in Liguria about 30km (19 miles) east of Genoa, while keeping his home in the Brera district of Milan.
A heavy drinker through much of his life, he died at the age of just 49 in 1971, suffering from liver disease. His last book, a comprehensive biography of Garibaldi, was published posthumously in 1972.
Grosseto's Romanesque cathedral, viewed
from the Via Daniele Manin
Bianciardi's home town of Grosseto is the largest town of the Maremma region of Tuscany, with approximately 65,000 inhabitants. Located in the alluvial plain of the Ombrone river, about 14km from the Tyrrhenian sea, the town grew in importance several centuries ago because of the trade in salt, that was obtained in salt pans in the now reclaimed lagoon that covered most of the area between Grosseto and the sea. By 1328, the silting up of the lagoon robbed Grosseto of its salt revenues, after which is became largely depopulated, vulnerable to outbreaks of malaria caused by the mosquitos that thrived in the marshy areas surrounding the town. It began to expand again in the 19th century. Tourists today are drawn to visit by the walls begun by Francesco I de Medici in 1574, and by the Romanesque cathedral, dedicated to St. Lawrence.

Rapallo's Castello sul Mare was built in 1551 to deter pirates
from attacking the Ligurian coastal town
Rapallo, while somewhat overshadowed by its exclusive neighbour Portofino, is an attractive seaside town of the eastern Italian Riviera, known as the Riviera di Levante. The town developed around a harbour guarded by a small castle – Il Castello sul Mare – built in 1551 to repel pirate attacks, which sits right on the water's edge. Look out also for the 12th century Basilica of Saints Gervasius and Protasius, two historic towers and a ruined monastery, along with a network of narrow streets to explore. There are boat services to Portofino, as well as Santa Margherita Ligure and Camogli, while the main Genoa to Pisa railway line passes through the town.

International acclaim for the start- up accelerator based in Nice!
The Allianz accelerator in Nice confirms its positioning as a key influence in the development of the French start-up ecosystem.
In 2015, Allianz opened in Nice its start-up accelerator in Nice, as part of the French Tech Côte d'Azur Initiative. The Insurance Company decided to invest in an incubator for digital start-ups specialised in Big Data, with a mission of offering innovative services: automobile, home, connected city, customer experience or any other projects based on data enhancement.
Since it opened, the Allianz France incubator accelerated 25 start-ups which raised €35 million in a first post-acceleration call for funds and some of which already have subsequent calls underway.
Its dynamism enabled it to be ranked third French accelerator by the American analyst CB Insights in the third quarter of 2017. This ranking also puts it in first place among corporate accelerators and in the Provinces.
Well-earned international recognition for this accelerator of promising talent, based in the very heart of the Allianz Riviera Eco-Stadium!

I positioned the 2nd largest die over the verses and used a couple of pieces of the Hunkydory low tack tape – its the pretty purple tape – to hold the die in place...and was gutted when I removed the tape and die, used collall photo glue on the back of the paper and place on the book...then saw dirty great marks where the tape had been!!
Luckily I had borrowed a sheet of pink baby themed peel offs from our class building so I stuck a couple of dummies, bottles and booties onto scraps of the paper and cut them out – these worked a treat – work all saved!!
As it was a big card I made up a box-a-lope, time ran away with me so it was left as a plain white whereas it would have looked so much nicer decorated – I need not have worried though because it was well received – in fact the lady cried at how special it had turned out!
Hi Angela, I came across your Blog by accident but love the 'Baby Book'. Just wondered though...which Spellbinders dies are these as I haven't seen these anywhere? I have made books using the Glitter Girls boards but it would be so much easier with dies. Also can you recommend a pattern for the little knits as these are so cute. Beautiful Card!

I was under moderate depression with extreme anxiety and fear. I didn't get relief from other clinics visited before. Now after 3 weeks I am really relieved from what I was before and I am on way to full recovery. The clinic is great and the staffs are friendly. The doctor's approach was extremely professional and straight to the point and into the good. Sir's paid a keen attention to my problems and solved it. Charges is a bit costlier but value for money.
I have a vast experience with a neurologist. I found Dr Vishal Jogi is one of the best in his specialty. He is very careful towards in his area of concern, he is the man down to earth in his nature to serving the patients. Dr Vishal Jogi is very sound and motivated in his practice through the knowledge and neurological practices to recover his patients. I strongly recommend such type of patients to consult with Dr Vishal Jogi..
I visited Dr Vishal Jogi for migrain headache. I took treatment from many neurologist. The way he understood the problem and provided explanation was very good. I feel much better after the treatment. It took 2 months to respond to treatment but now I am fully satisfied. He was the first neurologist to explain me about headache due to overusing painkillers. Thanks for listening.
Doctor was very thorough with his examination and clear in his course of action. he took time to walk me through all the options and patiently answered all my queries. For someone like me who is very scared of neuro problems, he was very comforting and patient while performing the procedure. Post treatment also he is very accessible both on phone and in person.
We are lucky to find Dr. Vishal Jogi at first instance. He is a great specialist. He gives good time with the patient and make clear all doubts expressed. Listens to the patient history very calmly & patiently & makes everything understand to the patient & accompanist thoroughly. He advised me to focus on daily routine things to avoid dizziness.
Being a chronic insomniac, I was looking for the root cause and didn't want to get heavily medicated. Dr. Vishal was amazing and she was very patient and listened to my 7 years long medical history. Then later on he recommended me to go for a sleep test. Overall, I am quite satisfied and looking forward to discuss the results with the sir.
Highly courteous. Always greets the patients with a smile. Pays lot of personalized attention to patients. Highly interactive and makes the patient feel at home. Over all, an extremely competent and thorough professional who loves his job as well as his patients. Have no hesitation in recommending Dr. Vishal jogi.
He heard me patiently. I also shared my problems honestly with him. He was very precise and accurate in detecting problem I was facing. Medicines provided by him helped a lot. Gradually medicines are reduced and I am feeling very good and fresh. Exercises helps a lot. Grateful to the doctor.
I found Doctor to be very friendly especially with children. My 5 year old doesn't like being examined but doctor Vishal jogi has always managed to keep him entertained and make him smile occasionally during examination. We are very happy with the service he provides us..
Very good. Professional approach. Gave sufficient time to explain us and answered all the queries. Specially my kid was more comfortable with him and the clinic. Very reasonable compared to services. Even the process guidance is very good. Highly recommended.
Dr. Vishal jogi was very friendly with patients. explanation was awesome to understand our mother and our family members. his staff members were so amazing no words to explain about them they helped us a lot entry to exit because of them.
Dr. Vishal jogi 's behaviour is good , easily understood my issues related to disease. He is excellent in his field. You need not look any where else for any type of neurological conditions or related problems. He is highly recommended.!
I have visited this doctor. The doctor is soft natured, understood all the problems and explained detailed procedure to solve it. I did undergone my Epilepsy problem. I am very happy with the treatment and would recommend this clinic .
Very Good. He examined all the test report to understand the problem and recommended the treatment accordingly. Has a good diagnosis and sufficient experience to suggest treatment. Thank you so much sir.
A good and patient listener. I have just started with the medicine though. It will take sometime before I can give my complete feedback. But you feel nice and in safe hands by talking to him.

Мирослав «Чіро» Блажевич (; 10 лютого 1935, Травник, Королівство Югославія — 8 лютого 2023) — югославський футболіст, нападник,  хорватський та швейцарський футбольний тренер. Найбільшого успіху у тренерській кар'єрі досяг зі збірною Хорватії, яка зуміла посісти третє місце на чемпіонаті світу 1998 року. З 2008 року по 2010 рік був головним тренером збірної Боснії і Герцеговини.

Футбольна кар'єра

Кар'єра гравця
Мирослав Блажевич народився в сім'ї боснійських хорватів у Травнику, Югославія, на території нинішньої Боснії і Герцеговини. Починав грати в клубі «Сараєво», виступав у «Рієці» і загребському «Динамо», пізніше переїхав до Швейцарії, де виступав за місцеві клуби. Його кар'єра як футболіста, за власним визнанням, складалася досить посередньо, внаслідок чого він відносно рано став тренером.

Тренерська кар'єра

Початок кар'єри
Тренерську кар'єру розпочав у 1968 році в Швейцарії, де його першим клубом як тренера став скромний «Веве», потім Блажевич очолив свій колишній клуб «Сьйон», в якому працював до 1972 року. У 1973—1974 роках тренував «Лозанну», а в 1975—1976 працював з національною збірною Швейцарії.

Перші успіхи
У 1979 році Блажевич повернувся в Югославію і очолив «Рієку». Після того, як його клуб зміг зайняти в сильному югославському футбольному чемпіонаті 10-е місце, в 1980 році він пішов у загребське «Динамо», одну з чотирьох найсильніших команд країни (три інші — «Црвена Звезда», «Партизан» і «Хайдук»). Після посередньо проведеного першого сезону, коли «Динамо» фінішувало лише п'ятим, Мирослав Блажевич назавжди увійшов в історію клубу, привівши команду в 1982 році до перемоги в чемпіонаті Югославії — вперше за 24 роки.

У наступному році «Динамо» виграло Кубок Югославії і вело боротьбу за чемпіонство з «Хайдуком» і белградським «Партизаном», який і виграв титул. Блажевич вперше покинув «Динамо». Він заявляв, що він змушений був тікати з країни, так як йому загрожував арешт як одному з лідерів хорватських націоналістів; в той час він потрапив у немилість влади і багато хто побачив у цьому лише найчистішу саморекламу.

Тим не менш «Чіро» повернувся в Швейцарію і в 1984 році виграв швейцарський чемпіонат разом із «Грассгоппером». Після цього він у 1985 році деякий час тренував грецький клуб ПАОК із Салоніків. У 1986 році Блажевич повернувся в Югославію, де цього разу очолив клуб «Приштина», з автономного краю Косово. Під його керівництвом косовари вийшли у вищий югославський дивізіон, що знову зробило тренера народним героєм, цього разу — косовських албанців, що складали в цьому краї більшість.

У тому ж році Блажевич вдруге став тренером «Динамо» (Загреб). В цей період він не зміг досягти якого-небудь значного результату і внаслідок цього в 1988 році знову покинув клуб. Його наступною командою став французький «Нант», цю команду він тренував до 1990 року. Робота у «Нанті» супроводжувалася серією припущень про залучення клубу в скандал з договірними матчами, через що потрапили у в'язницю такі високі футбольні керівники як Бернар Тапі, власник марсельського «Олімпіка».

Робота зі збірною Хорватії
У 1990 році, з проголошенням незалежності Хорватії, «Чіро» всупив у Хорватську демократичну співдружність і став вірним соратником і другом президента Франьо Туджмана. Під час третього пришестя в «Динамо» (яка тепер носило назву «Кроація») Блажевич обіймав одночасно посади тренера і президента клубу. Під його керівництвом «Кроація» виграла чемпіонат (в 1993) і Кубок (у 1994), але потім він покинув свій клуб, щоб зосередитися на роботі в національній збірній Хорватії.

З 1994 року Блажевич тренував збірну за сумісництвом, у складі тренерського тандему з Томиславом Івичем, але вже через рік повністю переключився на керівництво збірної, якій належало брати участь у першому в історії відбірковому турнірі до чемпіонату Європи. Хорватія виграла перше місце в групі, сенсаційно перегравши в гостях збірну Італії, і безпосередньо вийшли на Євро-96 в Англії. Блажевич завдяки цьому успіху отримав деяку міжнародну популярність.

Хорватія пройшла групову стадію чемпіонату Європи, перемігши Туреччину і чинних чемпіонів континенту — збірну Данії, програвши в останньому матчі Португалії. У чвертьфіналі їм належало зустрітися із сильною збірною Німеччини, яка перемогла з рахунком 2:1 і надалі виграла турнір.

Проте головний успіх чекав збірну попереду. Хорватія у відбірковому турнірі чемпіонату світу 1998 року зайняла друге місце в групі позаду збірної Данії і в стикових матчах виявилася сильнішою збірної України, кваліфікуючись на фінальний турнір у Франції.

Хорватська збірна зразка 1998 року була сповнена відмінних гравців, що грали на той момент в кращих європейських клубах. Це передусім були такі футболісти як Звонимир Бобан, Давор Шукер і Славен Билич, які показували під керівництвом Блажевича відмінний футбол. У Франції ця команда створила одну з найголовніших сенсацій, зайнявши на турнірі третє місце, здобувши бронзові медалі турніру. У груповій стадії Хорватія перемогла збірні Японії та Ямайки, дозволивши собі в третьому матчі програти Аргентині в матчі за перше місце. В серії плей-офф команда пройшла Румунію, перемігши 1:0 завдяки голу, забитому з пенальті. У чвертьфіналі збірній знову протистояла команда Німеччини. Чіро і його футболісти помстилися за поразку дворічної давнини, розгромивши діючих чемпіонів Європи з рахунком 3:0. Збірну Хорватії змогли зупинити лише господарі турніру французи, здобувши у півфіналі досить незаслужену за змістом гри перемогу з рахунком 2:1. Слід зазначити, що Блажевич прийняв вельми спірне тренерське рішення в тому матчі, не випустивши на поле за рахунку 1:1 свого найталановитішого футболіста Роберта Просинечки. Замість цього він вирішив після перерви замінити травмованого Звонимира Бобана на Сильвіо Марича; у підсумку команда не змогла забити, але сама пропустила, зупинившись за крок від фіналу. У матчі за третє місце Просинечки грав у стартовому складі і відзначився забитим м'ячем і результативним пасом, що призвів до другого голу хорватів. «Клітчасті» перемогли збірну Нідерландів з рахунком 2:1 і завоювали бронзу. Як і в 1982 році, «Чіро» Блажевич знову став національним героєм Хорватії.

Подальша його робота в хорватській збірній не була такою успішною. Команда провалила відбірковий турнір європейського чемпіонату 2000 року, фінішувавши на невтішному третьому місці в групі, позаду збірних Югославії та Ірландії. Блажевич зберіг свою посаду і почав будувати нову команду, залучаючи до ігор молодих футболістів. Однак, відбірковий турнір до чемпіонату світу 2002 року збірна розпочала з двох нічиїх, після чого восени 2000 року тренер був змушений подати у відставку.

Пізніший етап кар'єри
Ставши добре відомим завдяки сенсаційному успіху 1998 року, Блажевич прийняв пропозицію очолити національну збірну Ірану. Він швидко завоював прихильників серед багатьох іранських вболівальників. Тренер дотримувався тактики 3-5-2, з якою Іран грав на попередніх Азіатських Іграх 1996 року, на яких команда посіла третє місце. Він також залучив до ігор збірної нових гравців, таких як Рахман Резаї, Джавад Некунам і Мірзапур. Після того, як збірна Ірану поступилася у стиковий грі відбірного турніру чемпіонату світу 2002 року, програвши за сумою зустрічей збірній Ірландії 1:2, Блажевич повернувся в Хорватію.

Спочатку він врятував від вильоту в нижчу лігу «Осієк», а потім знову повернувся в «Динамо». У цей період керівництва загребським клубом Блажевич виграв чемпіонат Хорватії 2003 року, але в тому ж році знову покинув команду, після конфлікту з давнім другом, віце-президентом «Динамо» Здравко Мамичем. Кілька місяців Блажевич тренував словенський клуб «Мура», після чого прийшов у хорватський «Вартекс», де пропрацював до кінця сезону.

Перед сезоном 2005/06 було сенсаційно оголошено про те, що Блажевич очолить найпринциповішого суперника загребського «Динамо» — «Хайдук» зі Спліта. Багато вболівальників «Хайдука» скептично поставилися до такого призначенням, але знайшлися й такі, які бачили в тренері насамперед висококласного фахівця, здатного повернути команді її колишню славу. Ці очікування не виправдалися, «Хайдук» під керівництвом Блажевича відразу ж вилетів з розіграшу європейських турнірів, поступившись із загальним рахунком 0:8 угорському «Дебрецену», причому в матчі-відповіді команда зазнала принизливий розгром на своєму полі з рахунком 0:5. Стартові матчі також були вкрай невдалими, і в результаті вже 18 вересня 2005 року Чіро був змушений піти у відставку, поступившись посадою Ігору Штимацу, колишньому гравцеві «Хайдука» і одному з головних своїх прихильників у керівництві клубу.

З жовтня 2005 по червень 2006 року Блажевич працював у швейцарському «Ксамаксі» з Невшателя. З сезону 2006/07 він знову працював у Загребі, тренував місцевий ФК «Загреб», але влітку 2008 року покинув клуб і очолив національну збірну Боснії і Герцеговини.

Політична діяльність
Був прихильником ХДС у часи керівництва партією Франьо Туджманом, який проводив націоналістичну політику, Блажевич розійшовся в поглядах з новим лідером ХДС Іво Санадером, прихильником інтеграції до Євросоюзу. З цієї причини він вирішив брати участь у виборах Президента Хорватії в 2005 році як незалежний кандидат. Передвиборчі прогнози пророкували йому не менше 1-2 % голосів, проте, у підсумку за нього було подано 17847 голосів, що склало 0,80 % від загального числа виборців, внаслідок чого Блажевич вибув з президентської гонки вже в першому турі.

A keystone in Indian Astrology and mysticism, each Graha carries a specific energy quality and set of mantra, colour, numerical, plants, incense, animal, planetary and god attributions. It is said that the nine planets are transmitters of universal, conventional energy.
Why nine? Well, there are two moons – one for waxing, the other for waning.
Humans are also capable to tune themselves to the chosen energy of a specific Graha through propitiating that Graha or its presiding deity in a prescribed manner.
Traditionally in India most houses will have a nav-grah-ha chowki.
