Financially and environmentally sound, the Tujuh Bukit Project in East Java is set to be one of Indonesia's finest mines. With production already underway at Indonesia's Tujuh Bukit Project in East Java, the company in charge, PT Merdeka Copper Gold Tbk, is already proving its worthiness for such an important undertaking.
This mine, which is believed to contain the world's largest gold reserves ( million ounces), is majorityowned by the American company FreeportMcMoRan Copper Gold Inc. and makes it the largest taxpayer to the Indonesian government.
US mining giant FreeportMcMoRan announced on February 18, the head of its Indonesian unit had resigned amid a row with the government that has halted production at a major copper mine.

The PC 16 report identifies and explores the 16 countries that will succeed China's faltering economy.
As China's economy begins to shift beyond the low-end manufacturing and export-led model that defined its dramatic three-decade rise, a new group of countries is emerging to assume that role in the global economy.
The outlines of this group, what we call the Post China 16 (or "PC16") are only now coming into focus. Indeed, the specific countries may change and the respective roles each country plays in this next phase of the global economy remain to be seen fully. While movement in two leading indicator industries (textiles and mobile phone assembly) signals the beginning of this shift, many believe the transition is still in its infancy; few if any reliable trade numbers or volumes now exist to plot the contours of this shift.

The humble Dandelion is flowering across the UK right now. Growing up, it was called the Pissy Bed, although I had no clue why. Thanks to the power of Google, I now know that the weed got its eloquent name from bed wetting diuretic properties and a French/English translation of pissenlit.
Pissenlit is a noun conjugated from the verb pisser, to piss, and the noun, lit, meaning bed.
Fun fact and dandy photo.

The onslaught of data that was predicted in the early 2000s has now become a reality for every organisation. Data visualisation (or dataviz for short), a typical feature of traditional business intelligence environments, is the key to getting the most out of big data at every level of a company. But transitioning to "big dataviz" is more complicated than you might imagine.
There has been a lot of magical thinking surrounding big data: as businesses and, more broadly, society as a whole have gone digital with the rise of social media and the internet of things, every single company is now sitting on an inexhaustible trove of data that it can draw on continuously to discover new ways to drive efficiency and create value. Reductions in the technical requirements and expertise needed to make this promise a reality have left more than one company unable to deal with the flood of big data and, as a result, unable to leverage this trove of data to establish a 360° vision of their business in real time, a vision that would help them improve performance and better manage their business lines.
BI IS EVOLVING…AND SO IS BIG DATA!
To extract intelligence from their data, companies have for decades now been relying on business intelligence systems that help users – executives and department management teams – analyse their data and view the results as reports, indicators and graphs, without having to deal with the underlying complexity of the data. In the past, these systems only accommodated the structured data generated by the company's applications, while a data warehouse managed by the information systems department centralised and standardised the data to make it searchable. These days, systems must take in data from many different sources and in a wide range of formats – structured, unstructured, images, videos, audio, emails, social media posts and comments, data generated by sensors on smart objects, etc. – and all produced at a rate and in quantities that traditional BI environments were simply not built to handle.
The whole point of big data is to make it possible to use all of the data that a company generates and collects. While a container like a Hadoop framework – typically a data lake – can centralise all kinds of data, the challenge is how to extend dataviz to this type of environment. Visualisation is a key step in the process, as it enables users to access data intelligence and, as a result, concentrate on analysis and value-added actions rather than collecting, consolidating and verifying the data.
It takes more than just plugging a data visualisation tool into a data lake if you want the entire company and all its different user categories to reap the benefits of big data. While some publishers offer "big data ready" dataviz solutions with connectors for Hadoop and other types of frameworks, these rarely perform well – especially when it comes to mining and output– due to the volume and structure of the data. To achieve the kind of performance you need, the data must be structured and optimised, even with dataviz tools that use in-memory1 techniques.
Data consistency problems, requiring a strict policy for updating and adding to the data lake.
Performance problems when it comes to searching and output, necessitating predefined scopes and granular searches in order to create data subsets that more readily lend themselves to dataviz.
Optimisations on the server side are also needed for highly efficient on-Hadoop SQL searches. No matter what data models and volumes are involved, this work requires a great deal of expertise in the use of intermediary tools, caching and indexing. The goal of this structuring and optimising is to make browsing easier in the dataviz tool, which is a must for users.
Well-versed in the challenges involved in data performance and consistency, Keyrus and its subsidiary Vision.bi have created the quilliup platform to help companies effectively control the quality of their data and assist them in their decision-making.
quilliup also improves the governance of all data sources to ensure the consistency and relevance of all business dashboards to drive the company.
The goal of data visualisation is to help users quickly and easily identify irregularities or problems in their business lines so that they can take action to correct them. An intelligent analysis layer may even be able to point to potential plans of action. With or without these kinds of recommendations, the user experience offered by the output interface and the relevance of the visuals are the keys to truly capitalising on the visual aspect.
For this, you must be familiar with some rules and best practices. For instance, we know that when looking at a screen, people's eyes move from top to bottom and left to right, which determines where different information should be placed. We also know that putting more than four or five indicators on a page means that users will have to work harder to pay attention to them. Users are not all proficient in graphic semiology, and as tools come out with more and more features, it is often necessary to offer guidance in choosing the visual representations that are best suited to the indicators in question. For instance, a bubble chart is the most effective way to analyse the breakdown of salaries by gender and wage level. On the other hand, this kind of graph would not be appropriate for presenting results for a benchmark. This kind of knowledge is gained from experience.
By leveraging the rules and best practices from UX and data visualisation experts, you can build simple, streamlined visuals for each category of users, who will find them easy to use because they highlight the important indicators for their business line. End users must be protected from the complexity and heterogeneity of the underlying data through the data structuring and search optimisation work performed by data engineers, and it should be easy for these users to understand what they are seeing and use it to improve their business lines. By combining these two aspects – data engineering and UX expertise – you can improve the data literacy of company employees and help more of them become proficient in big data. By neglecting one or the other, you are condemning the data lake, which more and more companies are acquiring, to remain a sandbox that only data scientists can play in.

In every relationship it is human nature to remember the good things that the other person has done for you for only a short period of time but remember the bad things that have happened for all of eternity. This is a dangerous part of the relationship because this sense of recall can destroy relationships tremendously. One such relationship is marriage where husbands and wives soon forget the good things that their spouses did for them and use the bad things or mistakes of the past against them.
Allah knows that this case would most frequently occur in marriages and so He mentioned in the Quran that the husband and the wife should live with each other with patience, compromise and loyalty despite having differences, despite the mistakes that the other spouse made and despite the arguments that occurred because of it. The Holy Prophet even said that the husband and wife should not go to sleep angry at each other.
Every relationship has good and bad days. In the same way every man and woman has good points and bad points. To live together as husband and wife it is essential that we overlook the bad points (unless they are haraam) and look at the good points of our spouses. Doing the opposite, forgetting the thousand points of goodness and remembering the few weaknesses will destroy marriages like nothing ever will. Doing so means that you have freely let the shaytaan reign over your brain and are only thinking in one direction.
Allah has said in the Quran about overlooking the bad points of your wife:"And live with them honourably. If you dislike them, it may be that you dislike a thing and Allaah brings through it a great deal of good"(al-Nisa' 4:19)Allah the Most Beneficent has said that even when a husband dislikes something about his wife, he should treat her with respect and it will certainly bring a great deal of "good" for him in ways that he could not imagine. For example, he would be getting the blessings of Allah and that could give him heaven.
In a similar context there is a tradition of the Holy Prophet (PBUH) in which he says : "No believing man should hate a believing woman; if he dislikes one of her characteristics he will be pleased with another." This tradition is a perfect example of the fact that everyone cannot have everything perfect in life. If something turns out bad, even then it is quite certain that the next thing, or the thing after that will turn out good. So even if you dislike a hundred points of your wife, you are sure to like one of her attributes in the future. If one thing is lacking, then it will surely be made up by another beautiful thing. So remember to always have your good points of your spouse at a higher level than the bad and you will see yourself defeating shaytaan and letting your marriage prosper.


In season 8 some of our beloved Winx transformations will return, but it seems in little bit transformed way. First promo picture of new Winx Sirenix transformation appeared on net and we decided to compare it with old pictures.
Most viewers were outraged by a single color scheme for all Winx.
The user under the name Scarlett Sibylle adjusted the color scheme in the style of each of the fairies, and it seems to us that this option looks good too.

Q: How-to Test if Umbraco property is empty I'm can't figure out how to test if a non-mandatory property is empty in my umbraco site, and currently my pages cause an XSLT parsing error if said property is empty. My current code is simple:
<xsl:variable name="media" select="umbraco.library:GetMedia(sectionImage, 0)" />
<xsl:if test="$media"> <!-- or $media != null -->
    <xsl:variable name="url" select="$media/umbracoFile" />
    <xsl:element name="img">
        <xsl:attribute name="src"><xsl:value-of select="$url" />
        </xsl:attribute>
    </xsl:element>
</xsl:if>

I'm running Umbraco v6.0.6 and I've using the error checking solution as provided on the umbraco wiki, at http://our.umbraco.org/wiki/reference/umbracolibrary/getmedia
When I tried a similar style logic in C# I found that the test variable, $media, would have a value such as "umbraco.presentation.nodeFactory.Property." This filler content would wrongly bypass the if test, and then cause a break down.
This is happening on a variety of data types; media files, text strings, integers, etc.
Thank you for your time reading my post.

A: umbraco.library:GetMedia cannot return null, you may get an error back if no media was matched, in example
<error>No media is maching '123123'</error>

The thing is that your code works but you dont close the <xsl:attribute name="src"> as you should
<xsl:attribute name="src">
  <xsl:value-of select="$url" />
</xsl:attribute>

If you for some reason really like to ensure that there is an image in there you should write a "test" and count values in the nodeTypeAlias
<xsl:variable name="media" select="umbraco.library:GetMedia(sectionImage, 0)" />
<xsl:if test="count($media[@nodeTypeAlias='Image']) > 0">
  <xsl:variable name="url" select="$media/umbracoFile" />
  <xsl:element name="img">
    <xsl:attribute name="src">
      <xsl:value-of select="$url" />
    </xsl:attribute>
  </xsl:element>
</xsl:if>

The xpath becomes a bit "odd" since you work with zero depth selection, if you fetch media with a greater depth you must adjust the count a bit
<xsl:variable name="media" select="umbraco.library:GetMedia(sectionImage, 0)" />
<xsl:if test="count($media/*[@nodeTypeAlias='Image']) > 0">
  ...
</xsl:if>

To test if a folder was selected simply check for folder instead
<xsl:variable name="media" select="umbraco.library:GetMedia(sectionImage, 0)" />
<xsl:if test="count($media[@nodeTypeAlias='Folder']) > 0">
  ...
</xsl:if>

Good luck

A: Okay so the initial IF condition has to do this:
 <xsl:if test = "sectionImage != ''">

Which is how XSLT/Xpath checks if a XML tag is null. Then Eric Herlitz's solution can be used, or a dummy approach to just start assigning values without the secondary IF condition.

In the interim, here are some auto-biographical links.
The third year report for GNU-Darwin should be considered as auto-biographical to a large extent as well.
Pre-celestrials share many characteristics by which they are suited to the task. A good summary of these characteristics were enumerated by the Mutant RM's.

Another good summary of the traits is found in the Radical Mormon FAQ.
For me, my entry point into pre-celestriality was my discovery (need date) of the book Cosmic Trigger by Robert Anton Wilson (RAW). Dr. Wilson's viewpoint diverges from mainstream mormonism on many points, but because of this he inavertently documents so many of the parallels from cutting-edge science, fringe society, occult organisations, to mormonism. That such parallels exist should be no surprise, since mormonism must ultimately encompass all truth. In fact, we are repeatedly encouraged to seek out the best knowledge from diverse sources in order to be the best mormons that we can be.

Did the flood of Noah cover the entire earth? Hugh Ross on what the Bible says

Was Noah's flood geographically local or over the entire Earth?
Speaking last week on an episode of the apologetics group Reasons To Believe YouTube channel, the acclaimed astrophysicist and Christian apologist stressed that when considering the flood of Noah, like any other biblical event, it is important to take into account the entirety of Scripture, not just the specific chapters in Genesis where it is recounted historically.

"2 Peter addresses it, the poetic books address it, so you really want to look at everything the Bible's got to say about the flood of Noah," Ross said.
2 Peter 2:5 states that the "world of ungodly people" was destroyed with a flood. An important distinction, he pointed out.
The Greek word for "world," cosmos, is also qualified with an adjective in that passage and earlier in 2 Peter, meaning that text is speaking of less than the whole globe.
"And from what we see in the first 11 chapters in Genesis, by the time of Noah, human beings had yet to build cities in Antarctica and Greenland and, therefore, there would be no need for God to flood Antarctica and Greenland," Ross elaborated.
Ross, a proponent of old earth creationism, argued against the claims of young earth creationists that the flood covered the entire Earth.
The most explicit texts about the flood, he said, come from Job, Psalms, and Proverbs.
Psalm 104 — the longest of what are called the Creation psalms — speaks of the third day of creation, of God transforming the planets from a world of water without continents or islands to world of continents, islands, and oceans. In verse 9 of that Psalm it is established that never again will water cover the whole face of the earth.
"So there's an explicit statement, once we've got continents on the face of the earth, never again are we going to return to a water world," Ross said.
Thus, that would allow a world of ungodly people to be flooded but not the entire surface of the earth.
Additionally, in three other Psalms, in Job 38, and in Proverbs, God speaks of creating permanent barriers to the waters once the continents are in place, ruling out the possibility that Noah's flood covered the whole planet.
When Ross speaks with those who hold the young earth creationist view, they often point to Genesis 7:11 and the verses that follow where the text speaks of the high mountains being covered with water to a depth of 15 cubits.
Yet in biblical Hebrew, the vocabulary is relatively small, he said, noting the word for mountains is equivalent to hills or mounds. The word "high" could also mean elevated, he continued, that the water covered all the elevated hills that were visible to Noah from his position atop the ark. The Hebrew word used in Genesis 8 for earth cannot be used accurately to refer to the entire surface of the planet, he said.
"I think the clincher is what you see in Genesis 8:5-9 when the floodwaters are receding and Noah releases a dove," Ross said.
From the dove's perspective, water covered the whole face of the Earth, the same phrase used earlier in Genesis 7 where it speaks of waters covering the mountains more than 15 cubits. Since the dove could not have seen the entire Earth, the word being used must be referring to what can be seen by the observer, Ross argued.
"The phrase of the entire face of the earth needs to be understood in the context of the observer," he emphasized.
When non-Christians discover that the Bible does not teach that the floodwaters covered the whole earth they are more open to considering its claims as a serious, inerrant document, Ross explained.
Reasons to Believe takes the view that the first 11 chapter of Genesis are indeed history, that what occurred were in fact actual events.
Ross is president and founder of Reasons to Believe, and an adjunct faculty member at A.W. Tozer Seminary and Southern Evangelical Seminary.

14-12-2018: Latin American Weekly Report
Vizcarra scores thumping victory in Peruvian referendum
President Martín Vizcarra emphatically underscored his status as Peru's most popular head of state in a generation in a referendum on political and judicial reform on 9 December. Voters comprehensively approved the three questions supported by Vizcarra: restructuring the discredited council of magistrates, tightening restrictions on political party financing, and ending congressional re-election. They decisively rejected the one question he opposed: restoring a bicameral legislature. The result confers legitimacy on Vizcarra's presidency, giving him a mandate of his own after he replaced Pedro Pablo Kuczynski in March this year. It was also a resounding defeat for the right-wing Fuerza Popular (FP, Fujimoristas) which controls congress.

A dark day for Brazilian democracy
The 8th of January 2023 will be recorded in history as a deeply dark day for Brazilian democracy. The world witnessed not only an attack against a democratically elected government, but also against the very notion of democratic, republican institutions - writes Dr Vinicius de Carvalho.

A World Globe by day and a Constellation Globe by night. We love the versatility of this amazing light.
The Earth and Constellation Globe has a day-time and night- time view and is in fact two globes in one. In the daylight the 22.8cm diameter globe shows political boundaries, oceans, equator, longitude and latitude lines, country names, capital cities and other major cities for each country in the world. By night the illuminated star map shows constellations with their common names.
The Earth and Constellation Globe has an automatic light sensor so when the globe is turned on and the surrounding area is dark the globe will transform into a beautiful glowing globe showing the star constellations. There is also a handy override switch which allows you to turn off the night-time view and thus conserve battery power.

Third Agent Pleads Guilty in Insurance 'sliding' Scheme
CONTACT: Nina Banister
MIAMI-A third agent has pleaded guilty to racketeering and conspiracy to commit racketeering for his role in a scheme to slide undisclosed coverages and hidden costs to hundreds of auto insurance customers.
Aquileo Hernandez, 42, entered the plea Wednesday in Miami-Dade Circuit Court. Judge Dennis Murphy adjudicated Hernandez guilty, banned him from Florida's insurance industry and ordered him to surrender his insurance license. Hernandez also was ordered to pay $15,000 in restitution to the Miami-Dade Crime Victims Compensation Fund, serve 15 years of probation and 500 hours of community service, and pay $4,000 for investigative costs to the Department of Financial Services, Division of Insurance Fraud.
"This underhanded scheme hurt people who were already struggling to pay for insurance," said Florida's Chief Financial Officer Tom Gallagher, who oversees the Department of Financial Services. "This sentence sends a strong message that we will not tolerate anyone taking advantage of our citizens."
Hernandez and four others were arrested in March 2002 following a Division of Insurance Fraud investigation of the now-defunct chain of six Salem Discount Insurance agencies in Miami-Dade County.
The investigation was dubbed "Operation Electric Slide." Investigators determined there was a scheme throughout the agencies to defraud customers by adding additional fees for legal defense coverage and motor club memberships to each policy without the customers' permission or knowledge. The computers used for insurance quotes in each agency were set up to automatically add $50 to each purchase. Employees were encouraged to charge as much as they could, sometimes adding as much as $200 to policies for the ancillary products. Commissions on these products were as high as 90 percent. The manager of each branch agency was charged with RICO and RICO conspiracy.
Undercover investigators twice purchased insurance from Hernandez, who managed the agency at 16228 Collins Avenue, Miami Beach, and were "slid" on each occasion. Four additional sliding victims identified Hernandez as having personally dealt with them, and subsequent search warrants of the agency Hernandez ran established clear evidence that agents "slid" unwanted coverage to more than 200 customers at that location in 1998 and 1999.
"Very few insurance agents engage in this type of scam, but those who do risk more than their livelihood - they risk criminal penalties as well." Gallagher said.
Two other defendants pleaded guilty before Judge Murphy last April.
Jason Salem, 38, president of Salem Discount Insurance, was sentenced to 15 years probation and was ordered to pay $822,000 in restitution to the Miami-Dade County Crime Victims Compensation Fund. He also was ordered to pay $21,000 in investigative costs.
Yaudat Ohan, 27, who worked as an agent for Salem, was sentenced to five years probation and was ordered to pay $55,000 to the Miami-Dade Crime Victims Compensation Fund.
Salem and Ohan also were banned from the insurance industry and ordered to surrender their agent licenses.
Charges against remaining codefendants Ramon Goodman and Michael Durdungi are pending trial. Investigators state they anticipate that any testimony of Salem, Ohan, and Hernandez as to the activities of Goodman and Durdungi will support the other evidence against them.
Assistant State Attorney Herman Wan prosecuted the case and can be reached at 305-547-0673.
Salem Discount Insurance had offices at 1465 Collins Ave., Miami Beach; 740-1 71st St., Miami Beach; 8839 S.W. 40th St., Miami; 904 E. 25th St., Hialeah; 2574 N.E. Miami Gardens Dr., North Miami; and 2750 N.E. 183rd St., Aventura. Several of the offices have since closed.
One former employee told investigators that while she worked with the agency between September 1995 and November 1996, she witnessed as many as 5,000 customer files with hidden charges added. She said the practice was directed by Salem and included threats of salary cuts to employees who did not want to participate.
The Department of Financial Services, Division of Insurance Fraud, investigates various forms of fraud in insurance, including health, life, auto, property and workers' compensation insurance. Anyone with information about this case or another possible fraud scheme should call the department's Fraud Hotline at 1-800-378-0445. A reward of up to $25,000 may be offered for information leading to an arrest and conviction.


When it comes to financial aid for college there are primarily two sources: privately funded financial aid and federally funded financial aid. When applying for or receiving either you need to make sure that you are fully aware of all the fine print involved. Most people find that the expenses of college are much too great to afford without assistance of some sort. If you are a parent chances are that you will some day face the need to pay college tuition along with the worry of how on earth you will manage to accomplish that goal.
The problem is that not every student who wishes to attend college qualifies for either federally funded student aid or the vast majority of scholarships that require either exceptional grades or a specific and exceptional talent in order to receive. For those students thinking outside the box may be necessary in order to receive the much needed educational assistance or financial aid.
If you do not qualify for federal financial aid for your children, then you may want to consider the benefit of other scholarship options. One common scholarship option that is often overlooked is the ROTC program that most universities offer. There is a price to pay for these scholarships but many find that price provides valuable experience and is well worth the education and the experience received during the process. If your child is interested in the possibility of a military career or becoming a military officer, this is a great way to go.
As a parent you may want to see what sort of, if any, flexible spending accounts your state has set up that can help you set aside money for college expenses for your children. Many states have these and there are programs such as Upromise that allows you and others to dedicate the spending from a credit card to be used as a 'match' program for your child's college funds. While it isn't a dollar for dollar match of your credit card spending every little bit helps. The real beauty of programs like Upromise is that you can enlist the help of family in friends when saving for your child's college educational expenses. Regardless, it is never too early to begin saving for your child's college education and these expenses seem to be rising exponentially.
There are many programs that exist to help minorities and women pay for their educational expenses. Some of these scholarships are needs based while some of them are solely merit based. On all levels competition is fierce, however, if you qualify for any of these scholarships you would be doing yourself a disservice not to apply for them. You never know when your application might be the one that captures the attention of the scholarship committee. The one thing you should keep in mind is to read all the instructions, make copies of everything, and follow the directions. You'd be amazed at how many worth applicants are denied scholarships each year because they did not follow the directions on the application properly. Another thing you should keep in mind is neatness. You are much more likely to win a scholarship if the committee can actually read your application.
There are many great opportunities for financial assistance when it comes to college. The trick is typically in finding the great sources. Your college's financial aid office is an excellent source of information for financial aid as is your high school counselor. See what your options are before you sacrifice the dream of a college education.

SEVILLE — Discovering whether your ad is actually being seen by a human being is now just "table stakes" – viewability is about to get more sophisticated. That's according to ad ad-tech exec working on an upgrade.
Integral Ad Science CEO Scott Knoll says he sees a problem with current implementations of viewability metrics.
"A small percent (of consumers), say 10%, are seeing 90% of the viewable ads," he tells Beet.TV in this video interview. "It's a big waste. You're spending all this money in advertising but you're not actually telling your story to everyone.
Knoll calls that "the consumer ad experience", something he says brands are fully behind.
The nub of the idea seems to be – forget about time, focus on effect.

10 Great Horror Movies Most People Didn't See
Posted on June 11, 2018 June 11, 2018 by Antoni Urbanowicz
Horror is a constantly evolving genre, but its purpose is always the same: to scare the living hell out of worldwide audiences using various techniques. Some movies use jump scares, others use gore, others use a creepy atmosphere, all in the name of making our nights sleepless. As the audience we like being frightened and that's the reason of this genre's popularity.
In the list below, you can find movies that were unfairly overlooked or forgotten over the years. Here are the 10 great horror films that most people have missed:
10. Ravenous (1999)
In the 19th century, Lieutenant Boyd (Guy Pearce) and his group of soldiers left the army garrison to search for trapped survivors of a ill-fated expedition. During their journey, they discover that Wendigo – a flesh eating demon from native legends – is not just a fairy tale…
"Ravenous" is one of the best American horror made in the 90s, which was not the best era for that genre. Some elements of the movie's plot resembles the real-life infamous Donner expedition in 1846 – a true nightmare fuel. Under the veneer of a cannibalistic horror, there could be found an interesting commentary on American consumerism and capitalism, which adds intelligence and wit to the sequences of merciless violence.
While watching the film, one might wonder why only a few horror films took place in the 19th century American outback. This specific setting generates an unforgettable atmosphere, which distinguishes "Ravenous" from many others.
A folk soundtrack created by Damon Albarn (known from bands such as Blur and the Gorillaz), is a treasure for ears, that works even when listened off the screen.
9. Calvaire (2004)
Marc Stevens (Laurent Lucas) is a talented singer for rent who's mostly hired by retirement homes. During his way to a Christmas concert for elderlies, his van breaks down in the middle of a forest. This situation forces him to spend the night in the countryside house of an ex-humorist Paul Bartel (Jackie Berroyer).
The seemingly nice and gentle middle-aged hermit happens to be a dangerous psychopath who takes Marc to be his own prisoner. Unfortunately for Marc, Paul is not the only insane person in the village…
"Calvaire" is a psychological horror that will get under your skin and stay there for a very long time. Because of its utterly disturbing and devastating – yet not devoid of depth – content, it's a worthy representative of the nightmarish New French Extremity phenomena.
Director Fabrice Du Welz didn't choose the easiest path by shocking viewers with gore scenes and torture porn. Instead, he achieved the desired effect with an oneiric atmosphere and leaving things to our imagination, exactly as a good horror film should.
8. Medium (1985)
Soon after Hitler won the election in Germany, a string of bizarre incidents start happening in Sopot. Andrzej (Jerzy Zelnik), Luiza (Grazyna Szapolowska) and police inspector Selin (Wladyslaw Kowalski) lose control of their minds and bodies for a short time, like they were hypnotized by someone. Somehow, it all seems to be connected to a savage murder that happened in the past.
Poland isn't famous with horror films without a reason. Two Polish movies from this genre, which are considered good, are "Medium" and "Demon" (2015), but the first one is clearly a superior film. This synthesis of an occult horror and crime film has just the right amount of thrills and suspense to satisfy viewers in the Western Hemisphere.
This is also a must-see for every history buff out there with its depiction of Sopot, governed by National Socialists in the grim reality of 1930s. Jerzy Stuhr, who played the role of hunchback George, proves that at the time he was one of the best Polish actors.
7. Messiah of Evil (1973)
Arletty (Marianna Hill) arrives to the mysterious town of Point Dune to meet her father. In his house she finds a journal, in which he describes his progressively increasing number of frightening nightmares and the appearance of a sinister force of unknown origin, which is taking power over the minds of townsfolk. Arletty decides to stay there in order to find her father, who's disappeared. She doesn't know that her decision will have morbid consequences.
"Messiah of Evil" is a surrealistic horror that operates with the logic of fever nightmares. Its hallucinogenic atmosphere allows the viewers to be fully immersed in the spectacle of terror and macabre, just like David Lynch's movies do.
Point Dune is one of the scariest places created for this horror film. The only people who live there are flesh-eating ghouls and a murderous albino truck driver. By linking the undead and consumerism, it predates "Dawn of the Dead" (1978) and creates an interesting allegorical undertone.
The movie is a must-see for every fan of surrealistic horrors and H.P Lovecraft fanatics, because many times the plot resembles dark visions of the Loner from Providence.
6. Brain Damage (1988)
Brian (Rick Hearst) discovers in his apartment a peculiar parasitic creature named Aylmer (voiced by John Zacherle). The two make a equally peculiar alliance. Aylmer offers Brian the psychedelic high of a lifetime, and the only thing he wants in return is to become his symbiont. After tasting his hallucinogenic properties, Brian becomes fully addicted to Aymer. The young man doesn't suspect that this creature is using him to murder people, because it has an untamed taste for human brains.
"Brain Damage" is directed by Frank Henenlotter, known for his cult "Basket Case" (1982). What those films have in common is wickedly dark humor and a malevolent creature (created by cheap practical effects) in the center of the plot, but "Brain Damage" is much more inventive, twisted, and more of a fun B-movie horror-comedy.
Aymer is a great villain with its cartoony design and sinister, brain-eating intentions. For Brian, he's an addictive drug as well as a pusher. Their "friendship" is a main source for the film's dark humor, while Brian's psychedelic visions are colorful and imaginatively made. If you have warped sense of humor and a taste for film oddities, then "Brain Damage" should be right up your alley. Don't miss the cameo of "Basket Case" protagonist Duane Bradley (Kevin Van Hentenryck), who sits on the subway holding, of course, the wicker basket.

Supreme Court's Partial-Birth Abortion Decision Hits on Post-Abortion Pain Email this article
Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) — When the Supreme Court handed down its decision last week upholding the national ban on partial-birth abortions, the focus of the case and reaction to it centered on the pain the three-day-long abortion procedure causes an unborn child. However, Justice Anthony Kennedy also touched on post-abortion problems and pain.
People on both sides of the abortion debate were surprised that the high court delved into the issue of how abortion adversely affects women.
They say it's a line of argument against legalized abortion that could set up an eventual decision overturning Roe v. Wade itself.
In the Roe case, Justice Harry Blackmun, who wrote the majority opinion, said the state must be concerned about "preserving and protecting the health of the pregnant woman."
However, Kennedy's majority opinion in the partial-birth abortion case, said it was "self-evident" and "unexceptional to conclude" that "some women" who have abortions suffer "regret," "severe depression," "loss of esteem" and other ills.
He pointed out that "some women come to regret their choice to abort the infant life they once created and sustain."
"Severe depression and loss of esteem can follow," Justice Kennedy added.
In a statement sent to LifeNews.com, Care Net president Kurt Entsminger said abortion does indeed hurt women and that the hundreds of pregnancy centers affiliated with the group see large groups of women every year come to them for post-abortion help and healing.
"We agree with the Court: when a woman experiences a partial-birth abortion, when she learns of the details of how her partially-born child was barbarically killed, she could be faced with grief 'more anguished and sorrow more profound' than ever dreamed of in her worst nightmares," he said.
"For the sake of the dignity of human life, for the sake of the emotional sanity of women facing unplanned pregnancies, this procedure has no home in a civilized society," Entsminger explained.
The high court also stated that the more a woman knows about the humanity of her unborn child who was aborted, the greater the agony.
"It is self-evident that a mother who comes to regret her choice to abort must struggle with grief more anguished and sorrow more profound when she learns, only after the event, what she once did not know: that she allowed a doctor to pierce the skull and vacuum the fast-developing brain of her unborn child, a child assuming the human form," the court concluded.
Justice Kennedy relied on a brief submitted by The Justice Foundation on behalf of Sandra Cano, of the Doe v. Bolton case, and 180 women hurt by abortion for the post-abortion commentary.
The brief quoted two thousand notarized affidavits containing testimonies as evidence that abortion hurts women.
One of the women was Rebecca Porter, the Florida leader of Operation Outcry, a leading post-abortion group.
"I deeply regret having used the abortion clinic on South Florida Ave years ago. It was a horrible 'choice' that can never be undone," she told LifeNews.com.
Allan Parker, the lead attorney at TJF said that the high court was "absolutely" aware of the affidavits "and used them in the majority opinion to strike down an abortion procedure for the first time since 1973."

Bite Cosmetics has a lip lab where you can create your own lipstick color.
Lemonhead's glitter pastes are 100 percent vegan and cruelty free.
Melt Cosmetics pioneered the trend of bold lipsticks like blue, green, and black.
If you're over the trends beauty talking points of yesteryear, this list will have you covered. It's all about celebrating the lesser-known beauty blessings of the world: These 11 makeup brands will be huge in 2017, and yes, you heard it here first.
Of course, if you religiously read every beauty blog and hungrily hang on every word of each YouTuber's product breakdown, you may have heard of a few of these. However, you also might be a little exhausted seeing the same 15 brand names repeat over and over from review to review. It can be quite tiresome to see the same contour kit and single pan illuminator on every Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter feed. However, there's much to behold in the glamorous unknown, and luckily, the world of makeup is massive with much left for us to explore. And for those who aren't heavy into the beauty scene, well, allow this article to be your low-key incredible introduction.
From deliciously glistening eye shadows to creamy, unexpected matte lip colors, these eleven brands are slaying the game. Grab your selfie light and your credit card and get ready: These brands are crushing it and it's going to be fun to watch.
There is simply no eyeshadow like a Natasha Denona eyeshadow. You barely need to tap the shadow with your finger, and soft, metallic pigments coat your skin with enough product for a full, luxurious application.
International makeup artist Natasha Denona initially developed her products after seeing a gap in the industry. As a makeup artist herself, she was seriously frustrated with the way industry products photographed on camera. Foundations looked heavy and far too matte. Shadows looked flat and one note. So she created her own products. Bloggers everywhere (including myself) have sworn by her line. Her primers, foundations, and illuminators are simply beautiful, but her shadows are the true stars of the line. Light playfully dances across them in both real life and on camera. Her long-awaited star palette contains "Chroma-crystals," crushed diamond pearls, instead of regular glitter for an extra-dazzling finish. Luckily, these palettes will soon be coming to a Sephora near you.
Bite is certainly not new to the game, but it seems like they're only now starting to get the awesome recognition they deserve. Bite was founded by Suzanne Langmuir, who was inspired by kitchen chemistry and found a way to create a lipstick with ingredients so pure, you could literally eat them. Imagine how much lipstick you eat in a lifetime. Would you rather consume chemicals, or products that you can basically find in your kitchen?
Each Bite lipstick is handmade at the Bite Beauty factory in Toronto, Canada. If you're ever feeling extra creative, you can visit the Bite Lip Lab in New York City and even create your own custom, one-of-a-kind lipstick color.

If you want to unleash your inner "It Girl," you can nab all their products here.
