At the Sharp End covers the harrowing early battles of World War One, when tens of thousands, then hundreds of thousands, died, before the generals and soldiers found ways to break the terrible stalemate of the front. It provides both an intimate look at the Canadian men in the trenches and an authoritative account of the slow evolution in tactics, weapons, and advancement. Featuring never-before-published photographs, letters, diaries, and maps, this recounting of the Great War through the soldiers' eyewitness accounts is moving and thoroughly engrossing. At The Sharp End is the first comprehensive history of Canadians in World War One in 40 years.

It's not hard to describe just how good Manchester City are. They're the only team in the Premier League to take over 18 shots per game. They take 22.38. They're the only team to average over two expected goals per match. They average 2.80. Defensively, they're the only team to concede fewer than eight shots per game. They concede 6.67. They're the only team to concede fewer than 0.80 expected goals per match. They concede 0.54. You get the idea.
Manchester City are the best team in the league, and it's not particularly close. Teams literally cannot get out of their own penalty box against City's counterpress.

The Joint Center of Housing Studies (JCHS) at Harvard University recently released their 2017 State of the Nation's Housing Study, and a recent blog from JCHS revealed some of the more surprising aspects of the study.
"For the fourth year in a row, the inventory of homes for sale across the US not only failed to recover, but dropped yet again. At the end of 2016 there were historically low 1.65 million homes for sale nationwide, which at the current sales rate was just 3.6 months of supply – almost half of the 6.0 months level that is considered a balanced market."
"Markets nationwide are still feeling the effects of the deep and extended decline in housing construction. Over the past 10 years, just 9 million new housing units were completed and added to the housing stock. This was the lowest 10-year period on records dating back to the 1970s, and far below the 14 and 15 million units averaged over the 1980s and 1990s."
The biggest challenge in today's market is getting current homeowners and builders to realize the opportunity they have to maximize profit by selling and/or building NOW!!

Matroids, firs t defined in 1935, are an abstract generalization of graphs and matrices. By now, there is a large body of matroid theory. The book covers the part of the theory dealing with composition and decomposition of matroids.
The book is a revised version of the original publication of 1992. It does not assume any prior knowledge of matroid theory. Indeed, for the reader unfamiliar with matroid theory, the book may serve as an easy and intuitive introduction to that beautiful part of combinatorics. For the expert, the book is intended to provide a pleasant tour over familiar terrain.
The engineering advances started in the second half of the 20th century have created an avalanche of new technology. Control and use of that technology require, among many things, effective computational methods for logic.
This book proposes one such method. It makes use of a theory of logic computation based on matroid theory, in particular matroid decomposition. Main features of the theory are an extension of propositional logic, an analysis of logic formulas via combinatorial structures, and a construction of logic solution algorithms based on that analysis. The results have been implemented in a software system for logic programming called the Leibniz System.
It is an understatement to say that the Tractatus is difficult to read and understand. Accordingly, numerous introductory books and commentaries have been written. These texts are important contributions in philosophy but also are quite complex, even when described as being introductory.
In contrast, this book brings out the fundamental ideas of the Tractatus in simple, everyday language, with all concepts and conclusions illustrated by numerous examples taken from the natural sciences.
This book is also available in German, see below.
Ludwig Josef Wittgenstein (1889-1951) veröffentlichte 1921 ein bahnbrechendes Buch der Philosophie: den Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus, oft kurz Tractatus genannt. Das Buch entwickelt eine tiefgreifende Theorie – heute Bildtheorie genannt – über die Bedeutung von Sprache und liefert damit eine allumfassende Antwort auf die Frage, was durch Sprache ausgedrückt werden kann.
Der Tractatus ist zweifellos schwierig zu lesen und zu verstehen. Aus dem Grunde sind eine Anzahl von Einführungen erschienen. Diese Einführungen sind wichtige Beiträge zur Philosophie, aber selber oft recht komplex.
Im Gegensatz dazu entwickelt das vorliegende Buch die fundamentalen Ideen des Tractatus in einfacher, nicht-technischer Sprache. Konzepte und Schlussfolgerungen werden anhand zahlreicher Beispiele aus den Naturwissenschaften erläutert.


RESCUERS removed three more bodies from a collapsed university dormitory in central Italy early today, raising to 275 the death toll in the country's worst earthquake in three decades.
The last body was pulled out of the four-story structure in the city of L'Aquila just after dawn, and family members maintained their vigil up until the end, said rescue coordinator Antonio Panaro.
At least seven students, including an Israeli, died in the dormitory, which became a focal point of grief in this devastated city.
Signaling the end of the operation, huge excavators moved in and began dismantling the dorm.
"No one else is missing. There are no parents left waiting, but of course we will carefully verify that there isn't anyone else," Panaro.
But elsewhere in the city and the stricken region, search operations continued for as many as 10 people still missing.
Strong aftershocks overnight rattled residents - nearly 18,000 of whom are living in tent camps around the stricken region. An additional 10,000 have been put up in seaside hotels, out of the quake zone.
Italian President Giorgio Napolitano arrived today to see the damage in L'Aquila.
Officials have urged residents not to sleep in their homes - but some could not resist at least looking from outside to see if they could assess the damage.
Anti-looting patrols have increased in the quake zone and some residents stayed in cars near their homes to keep watch all the same. Premier Silvio Berlusconi yesterday said stiffer anti-looting measures would be introduced amid reports that the problem was on the rise.
Two people were arrested for suspected looting yesterday in the nearly leveled town of Onna, the ANSA news agency said, citing police. They were freed after proving to police the 80,000 (US$105,000) they had on them was theirs, ANSA said.
L'Aquila's police chief, Filippo Piritore, striding through the city this morning, said no arrests had been made in the city for looting, pointing to heavy police patrols. He said some people have been stopped who appeared to be intent on robbing unattended homes and other properties.
L'Aquila's medieval center has been completely closed to any traffic, making the center a ghost city.
The magnitude-6.3 quake hit L'Aquila and several towns covering 230 square miles (600 square kilometers) in central Italy early Monday, leveling buildings and reducing entire blocks to piles of rubble. It was the worst quake to hit Italy in three decades.
Sixteen of the dead were children, Berlusconi said, and of the injured, 100 remained in serious condition.
Yesterday, the first funerals were held for the victims, including for Giuseppe Chiavaroli, 24, a football player in a lower-division team who was killed along with his girlfriend in Monday's quake.
The Vatican's No. 2, Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, was to conduct a funeral Mass for most of the victims on Friday, Vatican officials said.
The Vatican granted a special dispensation for the Mass, because Good Friday, which marks Jesus' death by crucifixion, is the only day in the year in which Mass in not celebrated in the Roman Catholic Church.
The funeral will be held outdoors, as no churches are stable enough to host a Mass.
The Vatican said Pope Benedict XVI would visit the affected area sometime after Easter Sunday and that he does not want to interfere with relief operations. The pope praised the aid operations as an example of how solidarity can help overcome "even the most painful trials."


Italy's Carlotta Gilli only made her senior international debut last year, but the S13 swimmer has become one of the stars of Para swimming during that time, heading to Dublin, Ireland, next week as one of the ones to watch at the World Para Swimming Allianz European Championships.
Still just 17 years old, Gilli's first continental championship appearance will headline day three of the competition (15 August). The Italian has already shown her talent on the international stage, winning five gold medals at her first World Championships in Mexico last December.
"It was all great, I never imagined to win five gold medals at a World Championships and set world records. It was all a surprise," Gilli said.
"It was a fantastic experience representing Italy in this kind of competition. My positions were very good on paper in many races, but it was my first time in such an important competition, so it was very difficult to do my best performances. Fortunately, the results arrived.
"Winning all these medals gave me the power to go home and start training again better than ever before with the aim to have better performances in the future," she added.
Gilli has gone from strength to strength since her golden few days in Mexico, setting two world records and winning six gold medals at the two World Para Swimming World Series events she has competed at this year.
At her home World Series event in Lignano Sabbiadoro, Gilli won five medals from five events, including two golds. Last month, the Italian won four gold medals and set two world records at the series finale in Berlin, to head to Dublin as one of the in-form swimmers.
Gilli's record breaking form has continued over recent weeks, with the 17-year-old setting new world records in both the 50m and 100m freestyle S13 in Rome, Italy, at the end of June. Gilli will compete in both events in Dublin as well as the 200m individual medley – an event she is also the world record holder in – and the 100m backstroke.
"My performances have definitely given me confidence and the power to carry on with my training with the aim to have even better performances in the future. I am going through the final stages of my training, but I know what I need to do. I am feeling in a normal way, but I don't want to talk too early," the five-time world champion said.
So Gilli has not set any specific medal targets but says her aim every time she competes is just to keep on improving.
"The European Championships are the most important competition of my season and I have been working towards being at my best for these Championships. I am satisfied with my performances this season and my target for Dublin, like ever, is to just improve on my performances and do the best that I can," Gilli said.
Gilli will be one of 28 Italian swimmers competing in Dublin, the biggest team Italy has taken to a European Championships. Other notable names include Paralympic champion Francesco Bocciardo and 10-time European champion Federico Morlacchi.
The World Para Swimming Allianz European Championships will take place at the National Aquatic Centre in Dublin from August 13-19. Almost 400 Para swimmers from 37 countries are set to take part in Ireland's biggest ever Para sport event.


With control of the Colorado state Senate at stake, Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper is suggesting that national gun-control groups stay away from new recall battle. In the recalls this last September, some claim that those pushing the recalls were outspent massively by gun control groups.
Victor's group had virtually no money — even going so far as to spray paint their own yard signs to save money. They were outspent by the groups backed by billionaire Mayor Michael Bloomberg by 10 or 20 times. . . .
"Colorado is a state that people like to be themselves and solve their own problems," the Democratic governor said in an interview with Capital Download, USA TODAY's weekly video newsmaker series. "They don't really like outside organizations meddling in their affairs, and maybe the NRA gets a pass on that.
"But (it is) probably not a bad idea" for gun-control groups, such as the one established by New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, to curb their efforts if gun-rights activists collect enough signatures to force a recall vote on state Sen. Evie Hudak, a two-term Democrat from a suburban district north of Denver, he said.
If Republicans succeed in gaining her seat, Democrats would lose their 18-17 edge in the state Senate.
Petition organizers have until Dec. 3 to collect 18,900 signatures. "They're well-funded and there's a lot of energy behind this, a lot of frustration," Hickenlooper said. "I'm going to guess it's probably 50-50" that they will be able to get the recall vote on the ballot.
But, he noted, "I didn't think they'd get enough signatures for the first two." . . .
Bloomberg, for all his money, is counterproductive.

(Photo: Reuters)File photo of Taliban fighters posing with weapons in an undisclosed location in Afghanistan in this undated photo.
A former Taliban executioner who turned away from jihadism could not understand how Jesus could love him, a ministry shared, before he finally found peace.
Nazanin Baghestani, the program response supervisor for Mohabat TV, a ministry of Heart4Iran, told Mission Network News that one unforgettable call his team received was from a man who admitted to being an executioner for the Taliban terror group.
The man, who wasn't named, spoke of experiencing nightmares and restlessness, but wanted to find out more information about Christ.
"It took him a while for him to actually realize that Jesus could help him," Baghestani said.
"This was hard for him to understand. So while we'd talked with him, counseled him [he needed more time]. And eventually one night, after we'd prayed and talked with him and read the word, he slept. And that night he said, 'That was the first night I could sleep in peace.' And so he found himself actually trying to forgive himself."
The man's faith journey continued, and now he has found peace and freedom from his sins in Christ, the ministry added.
Hear4Iran added that many Muslims continue finding their way to Jesus, despite the severe persecution and hardships they face throughout the Middle East region.
Some have found faith through dreams of Jesus, including fighters for the Islamic State terror group.
Gina Fadely, director of Youth With A Mission Frontier Missions, previously shared the story of an IS fighter who admitted to killing Christians before experiencing a vision of a "man in white" who he believes was Christ.
Speaking with The Voice of the Martyrs Radio Network at the time, Fadely said: "He told this YWAM leader that he had begun having dreams of this man in white who came to him and said, 'You are killing my people.' And he started to feel really sick and uneasy about what he was doing."
She continued: "The fighter said just before he killed one Christian, the man said, 'I know you will kill me, but I give to you my Bible.' The Christian was killed and this ISIS fighter actually took the Bible and began to read it. In another dream, Jesus asked him to follow Him and he was now asking to become a follower of Christ and to be discipled."
Baghestani of Mohabat TV noted that through Christ there is hope for everyone, no matter what they have done.
"He (Jesus) can transform the hardest heart and the most stubborn person. We have seen many of these Paul-like people who have come to Christ. So with this testimony, we are trying to say that yes, there is hope and God is working today."

AMWS: What is an ICO (Initial Coin Offering)?
...If you didn't know, these ICO's are booming, and I know of dozens of companies that have raised nearly $1.5 billion via this new novel fundraising mechanism just this year (Source: MIT Technology Review). Celebrities have jumped into ICO's as well: start-ups, ramp-ups, dream-ups, grown-ups and f-ups. I recently experienced a crowdfunding conference filled with hundreds of individuals either with an ICO, starting an ICO, or learning about starting an ICO. So instead of offering shares, these ICO's offer digital assets called "tokens". So far, you with me? Tokens do not just replace stocks they literally disrupt business as we know it. Bitcoin is the most popular token system and Bitcoin and other crypto- and digital currencies are based on blockchains. There are many digital currencies all connected to computers and the Internet to verify every transaction using open-sourced software.
Although it is early in the game, these "token offerings" will be taking off as entrepreneur's preferred capital formation process so long as regulators allow it. Bitcoin and another cryptocurrentcy called "Ethereum" values' have risen exponentially sparking an incredible wave of new multimillionaires now moving on to fund everything and anything selling their newly created token to anyone willing to invest and participate.
I have been digesting, discussing, reading our writer's articles about Reg A+, CF, and nuances to the S1 IPO and now I have to include the ICO in my new lexicon. I guess the passing of the JOBS Act released the hounds. Company requirements make the due dilligence process very interesting, but issuers, and I use that term loosely, will do their first or next round of funding in ways you will have to research before you plop down real money on a Token! By the way, once you figure it out, rely on your experience and traditional decision making strategies, but as I always say in reference to something for nothing, that and a token will get you on the subway.


Israelis have successfully shrunken the ATV to micro-size with a new electric "Raider", unless you want to believe they have enlarged the electric skateboard to giant-size…or is it a stretched segway?
I want to believe four-wheeling has advantages, yet in every action scene above I found myself imagining a two-wheeler doing it more efficiently (further and faster) on same charge. Sure, two-wheels requires training yet we're talking about a highly trained operator in this market, right? If nothing else I would fiddle with a two-wheeler that splits wheels and extends axles into four, rather than be stuck all the time in a four-wheel mode.
Ok, one advantage I will grant is that if the Raider can be configured as driver-less then it's far, far easier to manufacture and operate than two-wheels. Real advantages there. Someone could hit the panic button and their Raider would be like a medic drone and return them to safety. Or if you wanted the Raider to drop you off and then secretly make its own way to a pickup zone, also better than two-wheel options.

Thread: Sneak Peaks - A place to find out what new features are on the horizon!
Things have been pretty quite on our end and I know many of you like to know what kinds of irons are in the fire. My apologies on the silence, a few months ago we had a large uptick in players and it exposed some problems in the code and server that needed to be addressed in regards to server load, so that is where my focus has been. Those fixes will soon be complete and new features will be back in the pipeline.
Those new features are the same ones mentioned previously and a lot of work has actually been done on them already including art that we'll be sharing sneak peaks of very soon. You asked for new gear, you'll get that, you asked for females, you'll be getting that too, you've asked for new schools and specialties...yes, we've got you covered there as well.
Moving forward we are going to try and be more consistent in providing you with updates on progress so you don't feel in the dark. Game development is an undertaking blending both science and art, and Outcast Games sets the bar high as you can see from the current depth of game play and quality of art. If either is deemed to be unacceptable at any point in development it never leaves the lab, and I assure you we've got quite the graveyard in the back! We only accept the best and only want to give you the best.
Stay tuned as the first sneak peak will be making her way onto a forum near you tonight!
I went ahead and removed all the rage discussion since the new thread was created over in the Suggestions forum. In the future please keep this thread clean of other topics not related to the "sneak peaks". Thanks!
anymore sneak peeks incoming for april?
How is conquest coming along? also, any plans for a fb version of this game?
I just want wallpapers! High - Def, particularly of the females, and definitely the color versions of the other races... why aren't there pics of female Snivlers? No real difference in appearance? Anyway, the artwork I've seen is beautiful. Looking forward to seeing more.
As you can see we've done some cleaning up of the announcements thread and created the "coming soon" forum to help give you info on well...what's coming soon!

There are some negative ratings from sleepers for these mattresses. Some customers were happy with the way their new mattresse made them feel, but others reported being uncomfortable. Therefore, it is hard to understand if one of these will keep you totally comfortable. Read on to learn more about the specifics to find out if these mattresses will work for you.
Mattress supportiveness is an important factor for everyone -- especially stomach and back sleepers. Side sleepers also need support to align the spine and neck while they sleep. For most sleepers, these mattresses offer a good amount of support. That said, some others didn't like the support so if you are heavier, make sure to read the reviews.
These mattresses may not give the lasting comfort that you are striving to find. Some sleepers describe issues with durability and comfort over a shorter than average timeline. If you are looking for something with lasting support and would consider yourself plus-sized, these mattresses may provide good comfort initially, but take a look at the mattress specifications and reviews before buying.
With brands doing lots of work on their online reputation, it's pretty hard for an average shopper to get to the bottom of customer satisfaction. That said, customers give these mattresses good marks overall. However, there were some folks that didn't feel the same way about the feel. so research more below to consider your body type with the mattress specifications!
Most find these mattresses to be supportive, which means they egonomically work to straighten the spine for most sleepers. That said, there are a few customers that have complaints, so make sure to do research to connect your purchase pick with your body type and sleeping position.
Overall, most customers report these mattresses as having satisfactory edge support, which means most sleepers don't notice a dip while rolling towards the edge or sitting on the side of the bed.
In bowling ball tests where the firmness is measured across the mattress, there is good even support throughout. That said, some reviewers describe rare support issues, so make sure it works for your body before purchasing.
Having a durable mattress is essential to shoppers, but some brands focus more on shipping product than they do about quality. The nice thing is that these mattresses are better than average when it comes to durability. Most folks will find that they are happy with their mattress after 5 to 7 years, but some who are heavy or use their mattress above average will find that their mattress is not as durable.

I can't even begin to describe how much has happened in the last few days...It overwhelms me to think about how overwhelmed I am. I am so overwhelmed, that i just realized it!! Starting with the weekend...Kya came down with a cold. We took her to the Urgent Care and they diagnosed a cold. big suprise there- I guess I should have known. She was still sick on Sunday when we went out for the Harvest Festival, however, we came home and discovered she had hives...HIVES!! I mean who gets hives anymore-I don't know anyone who has ever had hives. So, monday morning it was off to the Doctor's office for Kya and myself (me, for peanut #2). Her doctor, Dr. Rueben, confirmed the cold and attributed the hives to the cold, but when I was gving her the benadryl, it wasn't working...So, we stopped by today to pick up something stronger. It is still up in the air as to whether or not this will work. You wouldn't know how sick she is by her demeanor, she is still the happy baby that we all love, if not a little tired. To top it off, I got food poisoning last night! ugh! what a wretched experience!
And still more news...for those of you reading my blog a while back, I found out that my cousin Josh from Florida who was in a terrible car accident is doing excellent! My step mom says that you wouldn't even know he was in an accident! God is so powerful. From what I understand about the accident and how he was hit, it is a miracle he is alive let alone awake and without brain damage. What an answer to prayer!
And yet again, more news. Trevor and I applied to rent a house in La Mirada. We are really excited about it and we will see if we get it...it would be so wonderful to be in a house. Plus, we would be really close to our friends aaron and alicia.
that's not even really all the news, i just thought it would overwhelm you, to dump it all at once.


If you want to demist your screen in winter easily and not stick to your seat in summer. Here are a few pointers to maintain your air conditioning system.
It works like your fridge at home, by cooling the air with a refrigerant gas, then circulating it through the car.
On a nice day it is nice to have the wind blowing in your hair as you drive, but switch off the air con as it wastes fuel and coolant by pumping the cool air outside the car.
Just like other parts of the vehicle like oil, washers and engine coolants, they need to be monitored and topped up on a regular basis and the air conditioning system is no different. If it gets too low, it must be drained and re-filled. It is recommended to recharge every 2 years by the manufacturers, but double check by reading your owners handbook.
At Titan Hull garage our Air Conditioning service will check that it is not leaking, re-gas the system and lubricate the mechanical parts of it.
Over time dust can increase creating a breeding ground for bacteria which begins to smell. Clean your car interior often by dusting and vacuuming to slow down the impact. If you are unable to get rid of the smell when it happens give us a call to book in for a service.

In winter coat is a part and parcel of you. Coat or coats have various style and also made for various purpose. If there are snowing in outdoor you just need to wear a water proof coat. You have to choose a different type of coat, if you need to work outdoor. You can wear a funny coat in the weekend. So I think you need to consider many things at the time of choosing a winter coat.

Three In Police Custody Over NYSC Lodge Robbery In Akwa Ibom
Posted by News Caster on December 9, 2022,
In July, the suspects invaded the lodge along Udo Ekong Ekwere street, off Information Drive and made away with corps members' valuables such as laptops, cell phones and cash.
The Akwa Ibom State Police command has arrested three suspects, Aniefiok Okon Willie, Iniobong Okon Eden and Joshua Bassey Asuquo for their alleged participation in the robbery at the National Youth Service Corps lodge in the State.
It could be recalled that the suspects had in July invaded the lodge located along Udo Ekong Ekwere street, off Information Drive and made away with corps members' valuables such as laptops, cell phones and cash.
The Commissioner of Police, Olatoye Durosinmi personally visited the scene in company of NYSC Coordinator and promised to fish out the perpetrators of the crime.
In a statement by the command's spokesman, Odiko Macdon on Thursday, he said the suspects have been arrested after a meticulous investigation by the anti-robbery squad of the command.
The statement tagged, "Arrest of NYSC Lodge Robbers", reads in part: "Recall that sometime ago, on the 6th of July 2022, at about 01:30am to be precise, suspected armed robbers, invaded the NYSC lodge, located at Udo Ekong Street, Off information Drive in Uyo LGA, damaged the doors of the partially fenced building and dispossessed Corpers of their phones, jewelries, physical cash and other valuables.
"In a meticulous investigation, the Anti-Robbery Squad of the Command arrested the following suspects who have been on the run and responsible for terrorizing Aka Community and environs namely: Aniefiok Okon Willie, a.k.a 'Akpan Efa', Iniobong Okon Eden, a.k.a 'Orok', and Joshua Bassey Asuquo, a.k.a 'Sim Card' or 'immortal'."
The Command's spokesperson said the suspects, who confessed to being responsible for the said robbery, had made many stunning revelations, including their membership of a confraternity, and also mentioned members of their gang still at large.

At the height of ovulation, the cervix softens and blends in with the vaginal walls. It also rises. Sometimes so high that a person might not be able to reach it.
The cervix then starts to transition into the next stage becoming more firm once again as well as dropping into a lower position. This can happen quickly or may take hours, or days!
When a period starts, the cervix is normally at it's lowest point. However, you can start bleeding while your cervix is still in transition from the last stage. Which will mean that it will be at its lowest point "soon".
When your period slows and is ending, and the cycle starts again, the cervix starts its move back up.
So…that being said, sometimes going from one extreme length cup to another (Lily to MeLuna shortie) might be throwing you off.
I experience kind of the same as you do with certain cups not feeling as comfortable or "fitting" on certain days than others.
I find that on days 1 to sometimes day 4, my cervix is lower than on day 5+. On those first few days, I find a particular cup more comfortable and easier to insert. After my cervix starts moving back up, I'm able to fit almost any cup comfortably but I prefer a longer cup for an easier reach.
I would suggest getting an "average" sized large cup. Something not too long and something not too short. Either a "V"-shaped cup or a "bell"-shaped cup with a regular style rim. I would also try a medium/firm cup with a good rim to help the cup open.
Yuuki "Soft" – Although I specified "soft" version, this cups firmness is more equal to a medium firmness compared to other cups on the market. If you have a heavier period, this cup has a slightly higher capacity than other "average" cups.
OrganiCup (large) – This cup probably has the smallest capacity out of the bunch and is also the shortest. The rim on this cup is quite firm. If I had to give it a number score of 1-5, 5 being the firmest, I would give it a 4-4.5. Again, that's for the rim. The body of the cup would be around a 3.
Monthly Cup (large or plus size) – If you're worried about firmer bodied cups, the Monthly Cup might be a good option. The body is nice and soft (at about a 2), but the rim is still nice a "poppy" to help this cup to open.
The only "bell"-shaped cup that I would suggest for your situation, is the LaliCup. They offer three sizes, but the medium or large would be the two that I would check out.
This cup has a unique channel pattern on the body that helps this cup to fold up easier and smaller while also helping the cup to open when pressure is released. The medium size LaliCup holds slightly less than the Yuuki large but doesn't have the length in the body. The large LaliCup holds 40ml.
I would normally suggest someone to try turning their cup inside out and see if that feels and "fits" more comfortably, but it's not really possible with the cups that you currently own.
I hope that this kind of gives you some insight into what's going on with your cervix/body. Hopefully, you can find a cup that suits you. Sometimes less is more!


This tutorial will show you how to improve the SEO of your WordPress blog.
You should enter the meta description for each one of your pages. Use simple but informative sentences. The search engines will check how relevant your description is to the actual content of your page so make sure that you describe only the current page and avoid adding irrelevant information in this description.
It is essential to have the "title" and "alt" tags specified for each one of the images you use in your posts. The search engines will then know what this image is supposed to represent. Typing the title and alt tags for each image you use, however, can be a time-consuming task. Instead, you can use the handy SEO Friendly Images plugin. For more information on how to install this plugin, you can check our tutorial on How to install WordPress plugins.
Once you install the plugin, go to Settings -> SEO Friendly Images in your WordPress admin area. On this page you can specify the ALT and TITLE tags for your images. The plugin gives you the option to use internal variables such as %title, %name and %category. With them you can set the ALT and TITLE tags of your images to the title of your post for example. The plugin does the rest. This saves you a lot of time and keeps your images SEO-friendly .
You should make sure that you use the <h1> tag only for the titles of your posts.
You should use a few <h2> tags and as many <h3> tags as you need for the other headings in your posts. Doing this will allow the search engines to index the important information from your website better. A good document has headings and subheadings, because headings make it easier to determine the subject of the page.
For blog websites the best SEO practice is to set the title of your post in a heading1 tag. Most of the good WordPress templates do that. If not, you should modify the theme in order to achieve a correct output of your pages.


I have spent the last few days making grandfather clocks. I realized as I put on the facing for one of the "Ravaging Rio" pages that I had trimmed it wrong, leaving me a little short on floor and baseboard on one page. I needed to come up with something to stick on the page to cover up the join when I added new baseboard and floor fabric, but what? Then, I went to visit my parents, noticed my grandparents' grandfather clock in their house and realized that it would be perfect to include, although a total pain in the . . . to make. And, I had to put it on two pages because there are two pages with basically the same view. So here I am, two clocks later. Can you tell which one has the join?
17″ x 10″ – Rio walks into the living room one afternoon and is instantly cold, the hairs on his back standing up. Without knowing how he knew it, he sensed that there was a ghost in the room.
17″ x 10″ – Julie didn't feel safe either and left the room, but as Rio is leaving with Julie, he hears a cough and turns.

This Week In Your Wallet: The Great Democratizer Of Capitalism
Jean Chatzky | January 23, 2019
By now, you've likely read at least a few tributes to Vanguard Founder John Bogle, who died last week at the age of 89.
I especially appreciated this New York Times roundup of favorite Bogle lessons and memories (from, among others, Ariel Investments President Mellody Hobson, and Betterment Founder Jon Stein) and the Wall Street Journal's Jason Zweig on his two-plus decades-long relationship with him. "History will remember Jack Bogle, the founder of Vanguard Group, as the great democratizer of capitalism, the person who made it possible for just about everyone to afford to buy a stake in stocks and bonds," Zweig wrote. "I will remember him as the most extraordinary combination of stubbornness and flexibility I have ever encountered."
I wanted to share my own favorite Bogle memory — which I love because it shines a spotlight on the humanity of a man so revered his followers dubbed themselves "Bogleheads." In late 2008, I had invited Bogle to be a guest on the radio show I was hosting on the Oprah and Friends Channel on SiriusXM and, as he was known to be a firm believer in the value of rebalancing your portfolio (to bring your risk in line with your holdings), I asked him how often he rebalanced his own. "I think rebalancing makes a substantial amount of sense," he said. With his own accounts, though, he noted, "I don't rebalance… I leave it alone. I have not touched my asset allocation since March of 2000."
He laughed. I laughed. And we moved on. But through the years, I've wondered what was at the heart of that. Was it laziness? No way. Procrastination? I doubt that, too. I think he decided two things: One, that at 80, he had better things to do with the time he had left on the planet. And two, that he had Enough (not coincidentally, the title of the book he had come on my show to promote. The subtitle is: True Measures of Money, Business and Life). By the way, years later, it's still my favorite of his books. If you're going to read one now, this would be my pick.
Why Closing The Pay Gap Is So Fraught
Last week, Citi revealed a median 29 percent pay gap between the men and women in its global workforce — along with a plan for closing it, including implementing a 40 percent increase in the number of women working at senior levels. (Importantly, the company is doing the same for minorities who earn a median 7 percent less than non-minorities). But a new story in the Harvard Business Review (written by pay consultants who help companies close these gaps) says that the most common ways of leveling the playing field are full of pitfalls. If you simply give women a raise to match what their male coworkers are getting, that could put significant pressure on a company's bottom line and simultaneously not help individual women or the company as a whole — because you end up rewarding the wrong things. Instead, the authors argue it's important to take a look at what's causing the problem at its root. They ask: "Are women disadvantaged on intake? In ongoing raises? Are there large gender disparities in representation in different parts of your firm? Are you suffering a high rate of attrition in your female employees?" Focusing on these issues may be harder in the short term, but will reduce the chances that the wage gap will continue to persist in the future.
Down Payments And Debt
You're 30 and want to buy a home — and yet, you just can't swing it. Why? The Fed is pointing the finger at student loan debt, saying that it's to blame for about 20 percent of the decline in homeownership among millennials. In 2005, 45 percent of heads of households age 24 to 32 owned homes. By 2014, the number had dropped to 36 percent. Over the same (nearly) decade-long period of time, the average student loan debt per capita increased from $5,000 to an inflation-adjusted $10,000. But is it possible both pay the loans and buy the house? Maybe. You need to keep your credit score attractive — preferably 720 or above — so that you can qualify for a mortgage to begin with. Then where the student debt is concerned, consider compartmentalizing. Refinance or look into a federal payment plan that adjusts your monthly payment in line with your income. Then look into homes that you can afford. If you're shopping now, (or at least window shopping) here's a look at what it takes to get a mortgage today.
Do You Need A LinkedIn Makeover?
The days where your résumé was your golden ticket to getting the job seem to be waning. Today it's all about LinkedIn. Over 90 percent of recruiters rely on the site to find and vet job candidates, according to the Society of Human Resource Management. So, if it's been a while since you burnished — or, let's be honest, looked at — your profile, it's time to show it some love. According to the folks at Money.com, including your location, education and a picture that looks professional are the sort of musts that dramatically increase the likelihood you'll pop up during a search. They also offer hints for actually connecting with the folks you're linked to by sharing articles, commenting on promotions and liking updates from connections. ("It's a social network," they point out. "Be social.") And speaking of your network, here are some questions you can ask the folks in it instead of "can you get me the job?"

Camel fighters
Welcome to site returning to the times of real gentlemen in the sky.
We are engaged in the operation of a British fighter aircraft manufactured by Sopwith Aviation Company, which was used in World War I and for some time afterwards.
Sopwith Camel knows the public mainly due to the fight with the Red Baron. According to official records, pilot A. Roy-Brown in Sopwith Camel shot down ace of aces - Manfred von Richthofen. Fighter pilot of the German Army Air Force and the most successful fighter of the First World War flying with Fokker Dr.I - Dreidecker.
It was this duel that motivated us to create a project
KNIGHTS OF THE SKY
We are part of. Thanks to this we bring a period air show focused on fights of historical fighter aircraft including static demonstrations, pyrotechnic effects and period costumes.
Our goal is to bring extraordinary experiences to the public when watching pilots in the machines that stood at the very beginning of the aviation. It's often a spectacle with concealed breath. We are trying to point out the bravery and courage of our ancestors and their way of life.

Q: Customize Algolia Autocomplete Footer Content (Magento2) I have Algolia installed on my Magento 2 site. Which file should I edit to change the footer text in the below image?
http://i.imgur.com/9X72GrD.png
Instead of saying "See products in all departments..." I'd like it to say something like "Shop All Products." Thanks

A: The footer of autocomplete menu is generated in common.js:235.
The extension currently doesn't offer UI way on how to customise the text. So you'd have to extend the file or modify it directly.
But be careful about updating the extension in future as it will override your changes.

How long is it going to take to close?
It takes about three weeks (21 days) from the time you sign the purchase agreement until you get your money at the title company. Sometimes it takes even less time than that.
The title company will schedule the closing. Any questions that you have about closing, we usually refer you on to ask the title company. We try to get you scheduled for closing as quickly as possible, but generally that is going to be subject to the title company's schedule and availability.
How do I know exactly how much money I will receive upon closing?
The title company will first issue you a title commitment. This means you will be able to have a free and clear title. Then, they will send you a closing statement that itemizes all the expenses, such as the tax proration, and any judgements, and assessments, or anything like that that is owed on the property. It will itemize all those things and give you a final statement of the exact amount of money you will receive upon closing. You will be able to sign off on that before we close.
Why do we need to use a title company?
The title company ensures that the title is clean. It gives the buyer peace of mind, knowing that there are no back taxes, judgments, liens, etc. that would become their responsibility.
Closing costs are typically $400 to $500. We cover these costs for you.
What if I don't have a clean title?
To do the walkthrough and inspection, it will only take us about 10-15 minutes. It's really quick and hassle free.
Do you purchase property as-is?
Yes, we purchase every property as-is.
Do you purchase property while my furniture and personal possessions are still inside? We ask that anything you want to keep, you remove from the home before you sell it.
Do you purchase the property with trash inside?
We prefer the house to be free of trash and debris. However, depending on the situation, we will work with you to find the best solution.
Do you buy houses with fire damage, electrical problems, broken pipes?
Yes. The cost of repairs will be reflected in our cash offer to you.
Do I have to be moved out of my house before I can sell it?
Yes, you must be moved out before you sell your home.
Can I sell my home from out of state?
Yes you can. The communication can be done through phone calls, mail, or email.
Can you evict my current tenants for me?
Will you buy the home with tenants inside?
Yes, we will buy property that has current tenants. But we will need verifiable rent receipts, and a copy of the lease agreement. We will also need to know who pays utilities and how much utilities run. We will want to know how much the property taxes are. And how much the property insurance is.
My home is boarded up. Can you still get in?
Yes, with your permission, We Buy Cash KC can find a way into your home.
Typically, we as the buyer choose the title company that we work with. The title company we work with is Alpha Title Company of Kansas City, located on 666 Red Bridge Road.
Does We Buy Cash KC need to get lender approval or do formal inspections on the home?
We buy vacant properties, investment properties, rental properties, including those with current tenant. We buy fixer-upper properties, inherited properties, pre-foreclosure, going through foreclosure. We buy homes or houses in which the owner are going through the divorce. We buy homes when people are relocating or moving. If you have liens, judgments or owe back taxes on your property, we can still buy your home. We buy houses in the urban core as well as suburban neighborhoods. We buy property with little to no equity in it, as well. We buy single and multifamily dwellings.
What if I don't have much equity in my home?
Our strategy for a low equity home would be to try to work out a deal where you can move on to another home without damaging your credit. This works especially well in a situation where you have low equity and are facing a foreclosure. Your existing mortgage would stay in place. We would provide you with a lump sum at the time of closing. This sum would cover all the mortgage payments you are behind on, and perhaps some extra money, depending on what we agree on with you. Then, and we would begin to cover the mortgage payment each month on that home, while you meanwhile have moved on to another place to live. We can come up with all kinds of creative solutions to help you solve your problem, no matter what the situation is. Just call us and we can talk.

Q: How to save parent id through javascript in nested sublists I have a nested list  with any number of li's and any number of ul's inside the li's where every li has 2 hidden inputs: an id and an id of the parent.

        <input type="hidden" name="question[id][]" value="'. $sub['id'] .'" />
        <input type="hidden" name="question[parent][]" value="'. $question['id'] .'" />

            <input type="hidden" name="question[id][]" value="'. $sub['id'] .'" />
            <input type="hidden" name="question[parent][]" value="'. $question['id'] .'" />

        <input type="hidden" name="question[id][]" value="'. $sub['id'] .'" />
        <input type="hidden" name="question[parent][]" value="'. $question['id'] .'" />

            <input type="hidden" name="question[id][]" value="'. $sub['id'] .'" />
            <input type="hidden" name="question[parent][]" value="'. $question['id'] .'" />

            <input type="hidden" name="question[id][]" value="'. $sub['id'] .'" />
            <input type="hidden" name="question[parent][]" value="'. $question['id'] .'" />

I am using jQuery sortable to sort the nested list and now after sorting them I need to save the appropriate parent id to each item in the sublist.
Theoretically the parent id of each sub question is the value of the first input of the second closest ul.
Also if there is no parent ul, then I want to set the parent id to 0.
How do I find it? This is what I have so far:
$('#reorder_form').submit(function(){
    $('li').each(function() {
        $id = $(this).closest('ul').closest('li').find("input[name='question[id]']").val();
        if(typeof($id) == 'undefined') $id=0;
        $(this).find("input[name='question[parent]']").val($id);
    });
});

I am not 100% sure that this is how you properly loop through each input because I am hitting each twice. Perhaps I should loop through the li's instead?

A: You want to go up to the closest li, then up again to the closest li before that then back to the input. To be really semantic:
$id = $(this).closest('li').closest('li').find('input[name^="question[id]"]').first().val();

Not checked. I would do it in jsfiddle but it appears to be broken.
$('li input[name^="question[parent]"]').each(function() {
  var $id = $(this).closest('li').closest('li').find('input[name^="question[id]"]').val();
  if(typeof($id)=="undefined") $id=0;
  $(this).val($id);
});

Just one note if .save points to a button in a form bear in mind there is (usually) more than one way to submit a form. $('#theform').on('submit', function(){...}); is the best method.
Also
if(typeof($id) == undefined)

I'm pretty sure that would always return false because typeof won't == undefined, it will be a value, which may be 'undefined'.
if(typeof($id) == "undefined")

A: This is the code to save the id and parent id of any number of li's containing any number of ul's containing any number of li's with the cooresponding html from the question. I admit it is slightly hackish, but it is what I came up with. Hope it helps someone.
        $('#reorder_form').submit(function(){
            $('li input[name^="question[parent]"]').each(function() {
                $ul = $(this).closest('ul').parent().closest('ul');
                $attr = $ul.attr("class");
                if(typeof($attr) == 'undefined')
                    $id=0;
                else
                    $id = $ul.find("li input[name^='question[id]']").val();
                $(this).val($id);

            });
        });

The Vampire Diaries Stars Preview Wedding Surprises, Katherine's Return and a 'Satisfying' Series Finale
By Andy Swift / March 2 2017, 3:27 PM PDT
Courtesy of The CW
Stefan and Caroline's wedding arrives early on Friday's Vampire Diaries (The CW, 8/7c), triggering a series of twists that no one in the cast saw coming. (Then again, not everyone in the cast saw the wedding coming in the first place.)
"I heard about this June wedding for the first time at Comic-Con," Paul Wesley admitted to reporters at a recent screening of Friday's episode. "I had no idea what everyone was talking about, and I still kind of don't really know what it's about. But apparently there's some June wedding — like, the fans talk about a June wedding. So when they first told me that we were going to have a June wedding, I was like, 'Oh, cool. We're paying homage to the fans.'"
16 Wild TV Weddings
"Never in a million years" did Wesley think Stefan would someday call Caroline his bride, especially after so much of the early part of the series was built around Stefan's relationship with Elena. He said, "I never knew [Stefan and Caroline] would be equally as powerful … as a couple."
Speaking of Elena, Wesley conceded that "it would be very strange to not have Nina [Dobrev] come back for the finale. The whole story is about two brothers … fighting over a girl. I mean, there's a zillion other storylines, but I felt like it would have been a real shame for the show to not … wrap that up to a degree."
Of course, Elena isn't the only role Dobrev reprises in the coming weeks. Let's not forget that one of the wedding's primary purposes is to lure "the myth, the legend, the baddest bitch of all" out of hiding.
"Katherine's a disaster," Ian Somerhalder stated, unchallenged. "I mean, there's nothing good about [her coming back] for anyone." (That said, he and Wesley agreed that the wicked Petrova doppelganger is a "fun" presence to have around.
Of the series finale — airing Friday, March 10 at 9/8c, following a retrospective special — Somerhalder said he was "blown away" by what writers Julie Plec and Kevin Williamson managed to accomplish with a 44-minute story. Added Wesley, he thinks fans will find it "satisfying."
What are your hopes for Friday's wedding? Next week's finale? Whatever's on your mind, drop it in a comment below.

Q: A correct English expression for heavy and aching head There is a Russian expression referring to the feeling of heaviness and pain in the head that translates literally as "head is buzzing" or "head is humming" (голова гудит). Is there any similar English expression?
I saw an expression "brain buzz", but it seems to have a completely different meaning.

A: Throbbing head
Throbbing:

Feel pain in a series of regular beats: "her foot throbbed with pain";
  "a throbbing headache"

A: "I have a migraine" is commonly used. "Migraine" is a specific medical condition, but people use it figuratively to mean their head is so overloaded it hurts.

A: I say that I have a head like a pumpkin, from the sensation of swelling and feeling (more than usually) stupid. But I can't find any references to support this usage.


Quite a lot of people have already come upon some advertisements that feature a product named Global Test Market.
So what is it? Is it anything more than another scam run by some money grabbing imposter?
The short answer is, no. Continue through the review to find out all there is to know about Global Test Market.
If you're looking for a legit way to make money then check out my review – income proof here.
Global Test Market is an online survey service that allows you to participate in reviewing one product or another.
Product does not mean only consumable products like the latest offer of KFC or a new tool kit introduced by some famous company.
You can choose from quite a wide array of surveys that include movies, restaurant, automobiles, current events and pretty much any topic that you might find interesting.
Why use Global Test Market's surveys?
So why use Global Test Market surveys when there are equally good survey sites available like Opinion Outpost, Inboxdollars and Panda Research?
The answer is simple. They pay you for your effort.
For each survey you complete, you account is credited with a specific amount of points.
When you accumulate 1000 points (known as MarketPoints) you can cash it for $50 (for each point you earn about $0.05). There is no loophole in this and actually is as simple as it sounds.
There are multiple methods for redeeming your MarketPoints. Like, for each 1000 points you could ask for a $50 cheque or you could ask for a payment of $20 to your PayPal account for each 460 points or ask for gift cards and e-vouchers. The cheques are mailed to the mailing address you decide to put in.
Now that the most important questions have been answered, one would wonder, what are these surveys good for anyway?
Global Test Market is responsible for these surveys on behalf of quite a few famous brand names.
Their list does not include only big names, however. Various companies need to know how a product of theirs is doing in the market or how a product would do once it has been introduced for the first time.
They need to acquire feedback about existing products and suggestions and potential niches for a new one. And all these surveys are for that purpose alone, acquiring information for those businesses otherwise known as business research.
This is what Global Test Market does and those businesses are their clients.
There have been a few questions about the genuinity of Global Test Market, asking whether it is a scam.
Currently, there are about 5.5 million members of GTM in 49 countries.
Anyone who has participated in any of their surveys would assure you that it is not a scam.
They do not ask for any kind of payment when you sign up. It is free and the only monetary transaction that you need to bear i mind is the payment that you receive.
This is how you can tell whether a product/service like this is a scam. Genuine online surveys do not ask for money when it is they who are actually receiving the information.
Keeping all these in mind, it is always better to go through both the pros and cons of a product.
Undoubtedly, Global Test Market being completely genuine is its best part as it is advantageous for the participant.
Consumers from 49 countries can participate.
The age restriction is very limited. Anyone over 13 years of age can become a full member.
Participants get to know about new products.
The worst quality of Global Test Market is possibly their long respond period. Members do not get much of a response regarding when they will be able to participate in the surveys. It takes quite a few days before they send enough invitations to your inbox.
It takes about 2/3 months for you to acquire 1000 MarketPoints. When of course it is easy money, it is also somewhat frustrating. Although it is mainly due to the lengthy respond period mentioned before.
Truthfully, the general feedback about Global Test Market is positive.
However, there have been a few highly negative reviews as well.
Once in a while members complained about a few serious issues that could actually convince a member that it is indeed a scam.
Some people have complained that Global Test Market has refused them payment even when they had the required points. Another issue is their time-inefficient status update.
Sometimes when a participant finishes and submits a survey, they get a dialogue box informing them that the survey has already ended. This can get seriously irritating if you had to spend about an hour for that survey.
However, these problems also occur due to various bugs or server issues so it is impossible to blame one party or another without any doubt. All in all, Global Test Market has managed to generate positive experience in general.

Wake Up Now – Is it A Scam? – Don't Worry Go Back To Sleep.
I reached more than 1000 points and they dont want to pay. Why do I know? Simple, since 3 days ago they closed access to my own account with a "bad certificate" denial of security. In plain words they dont allow access with my mail and password. Totally a scam.
I agree. But when it comes to redemption, i doubt. I have not got my redemption yet, I applied almost 1 month back.
I am waiting for my money to come into my account – they said 5 – 10 days and it is more. Should I wait? I emailed them twice and got no response at all.
THEY TAKE YOU THROUGH ENTIRE SURVEYS FOR HOURS AND THEN SAY YOU ARE ELIGIBLE!!!!
THE SURVEYS ARE BIAS. IF THEY DON'T LIKE YOUR HONEST ANSWER, THEY DON'T WANT YOU!!!!!
EVERYONE MUST STOP SO THEY GET THE MESSAGE!!!!!!
How do u really feel about the situation?
Always hated such scams – taking your time and telling you that my profile or whatever didn't match their profile. Just tried 3 of their surveys, good for nothing. Horrible site and most of the survey sites are like that. The only legit survey site I came across so far is Google opinion surveys. But their surveys come very rarely, and you can buy only digital content.
I thought they were legit at first, even though slow to pay and the surveys were quite long. But, then, after spending hours completing surveys, I was getting messages at the end saying "Wow! Our records show that you have already completed this survey." This was AFTER I get the message saying that I had completed the survey and get an exit survey. When I inquire, GTM says I was screened out of the surveys (about 1200 points worth!). I know when I have been screened out (usually after just a few questions or a few minutes) and when I spend over half an hour COMPLETING a survey. Especially when I get the message saying that I had completed the survey and get an exit survey. I have wasted enough time arguing this point with them. I think they just send canned responses to everyone and don't even read the inquiries. I have wasted way too much time COMPLETING surveys with no compensation. Stay away unless you just have way too much free time on your hands.
Is it really true that the payments take that long? I mean, I am new to the GTM business so I am curious to know if I should go on surveys and achieve points or not, Because it seems that a lot of people complain that when you complete the survey and then you get a number of points which you are supposed to get paid from, the payment doesn't come, or at least, the businesses don't reply or it takes a looong while for them to reply to your survey and achieve points. And I also ask that if the company that you are surveying doesn't reply for a while, why don't you just go to another business and survey them? and if they don't reply, you repeat? Or maybe I am not getting it right. Can someone answer me these questions if they can?
It is a SCAM!!! They send check that is not accepted, and when you try to do something about it, they tell you that it's been too long and they no longer want to pay the check they issued.
Funny how this article reviews this business as generally positive, yet there isn't one positive remark here in the comments. I realize people are more likely to post negative experiences, and say little about positive ones. But that's fair, because what we would apparently consider a positive experience, would be if this company simply met its bare minimum obligation to its participants. Its sad that we're defining as positive, any experience in which a company doesn't blatantly cheat us out of our time and effort. I suspect such companies could easily operate under one name for a while, selectively scam its reviewers, and when they're tactics become known, start all over again with a new name.
