I've really been enjoying my small collection of Christian Louboutin lip products, and the most recent addition to my collection is the Sheer Voile Lip Colour in the shade Mexicatchy. This product was actually the first Louboutin lipstick I've ever tried on my own lips, which prompted my immediate love of the Louboutin lip collection.
Of the three formulas of Louboutin lipstick, the Sheer Voile Lip Colour is the one that offers sheer to medium coverage with a glossy finish. I'm not a huge fan of glossy lips, preferring satin or closer to matte, but I've honestly been using this more than any other lipsticks in my collection now that summer is approaching. Despite it being called a sheer lipstick, it's actually quite pigmented, delivering medium coverage in just two swipes. Mexicatchy is a gorgeous summer shade – a stunning bright coral red that brighten your complexion.
My favourite thing about this colour in this formula is that it does not settle into lip lines at all. I have very dry lips, and most lipsticks, especially the ones with more slip, tend to settle and gather in my lip lines, creating a not-so-flattering look. However Mexicatchy applies and wears smoothly for a few hours before disappearing due to me eating / drinking.
With a Louboutin lip liner, this product lasted over 8 hours on my lips. Yes you read that right – a glossy, sheer-ish lipstick can last a really long time on your lips. I don't always wear this with a lip liner, preferring to pop this on when I want to go for a glamour red without the heaviness, but it's nice to know that when I want the option, it's there.
The downside of course, is the price is pretty out there. At C$120 a pop, not everyone can afford it, but it's definitely a nice treat for yourself. You can purchase the Louboutin Sheer Voile Lip Colour at Holt Renfrew.

Weeb and Otaku – Seriously blurred lines
by hutchm December 5, 2020 · Anime
Two words anime fans will always find themselves being called are weeb and otaku. Let's look at what exactly these terms mean and whether they are being used in good faith or as a slur.
Yuri Miyata from Two Car
Ever since my infatuation with anime many years ago, I've only begun to notice the crude disposition many people feel towards those who enjoy Japanese games, comics and of course anime. To be even more specific, this degrading viewpoint of an entire fanbase is primarily targeted to those who enjoy the aforementioned cultures of Japan, but are not of Japanese ethnicity themselves. This unfair and hostile treatment towards a select group of people who happen to have an interest outside of their own culture is an ongoing occurrence that needs to be properly analyzed and discussed.
Nobody is safe on the internet
Whenever I'm browsing YouTube, Reddit or Twitter, my personal holy trinity of websites at any given time, there are always two words that get thrown around when anime becomes the main topic of discussion. The terms weeb or weeaboo is the first phrase that always attracts my attention. I've seen friends call each other this name in a joking manner, but I've also seen it used as a direct insult in online arguments between two complete strangers. According to Japan Powered, a website that discusses everything Japanese and anime related, the word weeaboo is a slang term derived from the two words "wannabe" and "white." Its earliest usage dates back in the infamous online chat rooms of 4chan, when they would use it to insult obsessive and obnoxious anime fans.
Yuuki Asaba from Kimi to Boku
To my surprise, I still get called a weeb by my friends and online users from time to time. I too am not exempt from this term used to shun fans of Japanese culture who are not of the same ethnicity, or so I thought. In actuality, the term weeb and weeaboo have become so overused all throughout social media and other popular websites that it has become a generic term used to describe all fans of Japanese culture, mainly anime fans. This Reddit post seems to understand my pain all too well. However, one of the commenters from that post explains the term weeb has been self-used by the anime community for some time now, and that it is used to separate occasional watchers from die-hard fans.
From my understanding, the term has gained so much traction that it has lost most of its meaning. The misuse of the term weeb, which originated as an insult to annoying fans of Japanese culture but has since shifted to simply anyone who consumes anime or manga, is a troubling development that transforms a demeaning phrase with a prolifically racist history to an uplifting status, which apparently some people take pride in.
Origins of Otaku
The second term I see time and time again is otaku. Although they are sometimes used interchangeably, otaku is an actual Japanese word that originated years before weeb came into existence. According to Tofugu, a website focused on learning the Japanese language, "media and cultural trends have shaped the term's popular perception over time." They continue by stating otaku was used by Japanese people as a term for those who consume a ton of anime and manga. Tofugu explains how Japanese people needed a word to connect with others of similar interest and otaku fit the bill perfectly. In general, the word otaku appears to be a mutual and friendly term used by experienced anime fans.

Hatred breeds more hatred
The two words otaku and weeabo were created for distinct purposes, but since then their meanings have evidently been reshaped to convey the opposite. Where weeaboo was once coined to insult overly-enthusiastic fans of Japanese culture, it has now become a title anime fans have found pride in. On the contrary, otaku was made to help identify and connect with other anime and manga fans but has now turned into yet another derogatory term for those passionate about Japanese culture. It is without a doubt the perception of these two words have changed significantly, but one thing remains certain, they are two of the most commonly used words to blatantly disrespect fans of anime and Japanese culture in general.

I try my best to not let the words of others irritate me, especially when they are the ones casted over the endless boundaries of the internet, behind the comfort of anonymity, but I can't deny the terms weeb and otaku irritate and possibly offend me to no end. I had no idea two words could conflict this much hate and animosity towards a particular group of people with niche interest, but that is apparently what it has come down to. Anime fans have faced this type of persecution for years and will continue to bear the onslaught of derogatory terms, with the main perpetrators being weeb and otaku, for as long as the internet is around, and that is deeply concerning.
My advice to those caught in the receiving end of this backlash is to ignore it and move on. The people who purposely try to insult or humiliate the interest of others for any reason are a special breed of individuals who don't deserve your attention. It's not a foolproof method for defending one's self against the legion of baseless haters, but it is the reality we as a contemporary society live in, and one that we must overcome at all cost.

Q: is it possible to put iframe value in textarea? I have seen in some websites, such as Wordpress, that they have rich text editors with a toggle option with which you can see html code of what you are typing. Is there any way I can see the src of an iframe in a textarea?
<textarea name="textarea" id="textarea"></textarea>
<iframe name="editor"style="width:600px;height:500px"id="iframe"></iframe>
<input type ="button"id="btn"value="btn"/>

<script>
       editor.document.designMode='on';
       $("#btn").click(function(){
               $("#textarea").val($("#iframe").val());
       })
</script>

A: You can do this with an ajax $.get request
$("#btn").click(function(){
    var iframe_url = $("#iframe").attr('src');

    $("#textarea").val( 'loading...' );

    $.get( iframe_url, {}, function(response){
        $("#textarea").val( response );
    } );
});

A: You can only do this if your iframe's content comes from the same server as does the HTML outside the iframe. If this is the case, then:
$('#iframe').contents().find('html').html();

should work. If it's not the case, then it's impossible to do this. There's more info on the reason for this here.

Weird problems here - help much appreciated!
Windows 10 "fast boot" is not a BIOS function. Its found in Settings/System/Power and Sleep/Additional Power Settings/Choose what the power buttons do. Click "Change Settings that are currently unavailable" and then uncheck "Turn on fast startup" and then click Save Changes.

I went through the ASUS manual, BIOS section, and don't see anything about "fast boot".???
The BIOS is similar to my ASUS BIOS and there is no "fast boot" option in it, too.
My Asus UEFI/BIOS boot page has a 'Fast Boot' has a 'Enabled' / 'Disabled' option. 'Enabled' says to select to accelerate the boot speed.
I think the Windows version is using a hybrid sleep mode that involves the hibernation file.
"Basically Fast Boot under a UEFI setup initializes all hardware at the same time(providing you have compatible VGA and Mobo) to boot you into Windows faster. As opposed to the older BIOSes which initializes your hardware one piece at a time and takes longer by doing so".
I've had similar issues with the BIOS in the past when I've had power brown-outs.
The symptoms you describe point to a corrupted BIOS. ASUS is pretty tollerant with corruption, which is why it appears to work, but you get weird stuff happening.
The easiest way to fix this is to check which version of the BIOS you have, download that version from ASUS's website and reflash the BIOS.
the only way I could turn off fast boot/hybernate on my Win10 Pro box was via command line.


While the Dual OC is not going to win any prizes for aesthetics, there is no denying that Palit have put together a more than capable card in a fairly compact size. Not everyone wants a three-slot monster in their chassis with blinking LED's everywhere, so Palit has given us a subtle option here. No mention has been made to a release date or even pricing for that matter, with the only details being provided on the official product page here.

A massive 5,000-acre Texas Hill Country ranch — complete with three houses, abundant wildlife, a spring-fed creek, and several lakes — is on the market for $49.95 million.
Described as "a slice of paradise," Northrup Pipe Creek Ranch, sits six miles west of Boerne and 100 miles southwest of Austin. According to Icon Global Group, which is marketing the property, the ranch is currently owned by the children of the late Dallas entrepreneur and inventor Leonard "Lynn" Northrup Jr., who died in 2016. The Northrup family has owned and operated the ranch since the early 1930s.
The property is surrounded by 6,000 acres of other privately owned ranches and is situated next to 3,000 acres of state-protected wilderness area. The ranch spans three counties in Central Texas: Bandera, Kerr, and Kendall.
"Ranching and nature come together here, with areas of wildlife habitat and multiple creeks and springs, combined with agricultural areas defined by improved pastures and fallow fields," teases the real estate listing for the property.
The amenities of the ranch are impressive, such as:
A 2,884-square-foot main house with four bedrooms, three-and-a-half bathrooms, and an 800-square-foot guesthouse.
A 2,564-square foot hunting lodge with three bedrooms, two-and-a-half bathrooms, and housekeeper's quarters.
A 1,700-square-foot foreman's house with four bedrooms and two-and-a-half bathrooms.
4.4 miles of spring-fed Pipe Creek.
A forest featuring types of trees like pine, juniper, pecan, walnut, oak, cedar, and maple.
A variety of wildlife, including white-tailed deer, turkeys, doves, elk, and hogs.
A state-supervised hunting program.
Four main lakes.
An event pavilion overlooking one of the lakes.
The Northrup family has also taken measures to ensure the environmental protection of the land by implementing conservation programs and getting the land certified as USDA Organic.
Icon Global Group is marketing the ranch on behalf of its owners, James "Chip" Northrup and Susan Eldredge, both of Dallas. They are two of Lynn Northrup Jr.'s children.

GOING TO COURT:
Questions-and-answers on managing a public interest litigation action. A step-by-step guide.
1 . What Support Could I Get?
2 . Who Can Support Me?
Legal action can be an effective way to secure justice, but bringing an effective legal case can be difficult. It requires time, resources and creativity. To overcome these difficulties, it is often important to get support.
What Support Could I Get?
(a) Financial Support
Legal cases can be expensive. You may need financial support to bring legal action action. Our page "How Can I Finance my Action?" gives you tips on how to get financial support.
(b) Legal Support
For someone who is not trained in the law, bringing a legal case can be confusing. In most cases, you will need legal assistance to do the following:
(i) Deciding whether legal action is right for you
You can find information about the advantages and disadvantages of taking legal action in "Is Legal Action Right for Me?". However, whether legal action is right for you will depend on your exact circumstances. It is helpful to get independent advice when making this decision. Advice from someone who can talk you through the options that are available and how they can secure justice in your circumstances.
(ii) Finding out if you can bring a legal case and who you can bring it against
Rules concerning who has the right to bring legal cases are often complex and will depend on the country you are in, as well as the type of case you are bringing (see "Who Can Take Legal Action?"). Legal assistance is necessary in finding out if you can take legal action.
There are often a range of different people and organisations who you can bring legal action against (see "Who Can I Sue?"). This can create confusion. When deciding who you can bring action against, and who is the best target for your case, getting advice is key.
(iii) Deciding where you should bring your case
There are a range of different (sometimes unexpected) places you can bring your complaint, ranging from national courts to international bodies (see "Where Can I Take Legal Action?"). To help you decide where to take your case, it is helpful to get advice from someone with knowledge of the different bodies, the strengths/weaknesses of each, and their suitability for your case.
(iv) Arguing your case
The other side will usually have lawyers arguing against your case, so it is unwise to represent yourself. You will usually need legal representation to prove your case in court and help you with the following;
Showing that there has been a breach of your rights.
Showing that the defendant was responsible for this breach.
Arguing for a remedy to resolve the breach.
While this guide can give you an indication of whether you have a good case and what you need to do to prove it, you will need further assistance to bring an action in court.
(c) Practical Support
You may need support with these practical issues:
(i) Organising a group
When your case involves an issue that affects many people, it can be useful to bring a "class action" (sometimes called a "group action"), i.e. a legal case that is brought on behalf of a group. Bringing a case as a group can be important when facing a powerful opponent.
It can be difficult to bring together and organise a group on your own. Therefore, it can be useful to get support to:
Find people who are affected by the issue and want to be part of a class action.
Manage the group once it has been created.
Find agreement on key issues such as where the action will be brought and what remedy will be sought.
Resolve conflicts within the group when disagreements arise.
For further information, see «How do I Manage a Group?»
(ii) Raising awareness
Raising awareness and public support for your legal case (and the issue it concerns) can help ensure there is a fair case, protect you from intimidation, and help you get financial or legal support. Raising awareness could even partly achieve your objectives if the case fails, by creating some accountability about the defendant's actions.
Raising awareness can be difficult. Try and get support from people who have a wide network and media connections. They can help you:
Develop a media strategy, finding journalists who may be interested in your case, drawing their attention to it, and providing them with the materials they need to cover it (e.g. a summary of your complaint, information on court hearing dates, press releases on key developments etc).
Get high-profile individuals/organisations to speak out in support of your case.
For more information, see "Campaigning".
(iii) Gathering evidence
Gathering enough quality evidence to base your case on can be difficult. It is important to get support from people/organisations who know how to gather evidence. Support can include:
Getting legal advice on what type of evidence is needed to prove your case.
Getting help with investigations and finding out information about the defendant.
Getting forensic teams to go and collect evidence at the area where the issue happened.
Calling expert witnesses who can give credibility to your case, such as a scientist or human rights expert specialised in the issue.
Helping to make requests for information which can help you prove your case (see "Access to Information").
For more information, see "How Can I Prove my Case?"
(iv) Security issues
When bringing your legal case, you may face intimidation, threats, violence and other forms of hostility from the opposing party or other people/companies who don't want you to enforce your rights. If this happens, there are measures you can take and support you can get to help you deal with security issues (see "How Do I Protect my Information?" and "How do I Deal with Security?"
Who Can Support Me?
You could get support from the following sources:
(a) Local Community Groups/Individuals
Your local community is a good place to start looking for support. Groups in and members of your community will often have direct knowledge of the issue, be affected by the problem, or have a personal connection with your loss. This means they are often the most likely people to give financial, legal, and practical support.
Groups and individuals can include:
Your local religious group/leaders
Influential members of the community, such as elders or local politicians
Local lawyers who are supportive of the cause and may be able to help at low-cost or pro-bono (for free)
A community mobilised around an issue can be a powerful tool to effect change and secure justice.
Example: Fadeyeva v Russia
In Russia, residents of a town affected by the pollution of Russia's biggest Iron smelting company banded together to secure compensation and stop the pollution. Although failing to get a ruling in Russian courts, they successfully brought their case to the European Court on Human Rights.
(b) Civil Society Organisations
Civil society organisations are national groups which represent issues of public interest (e.g. environmental protection or workers' rights). Civil society organisations can provide useful support when bringing a legal case as they tend to have detailed knowledge of the area they represent, and resources with which they can support your action.
Civil society organisations include:
Environmental protection groups
National human rights organisations
Law clinics and advice centres
Example: SERAC Nigeria
A Nigerian civil society organisation called the "Social and Economic Rights Action Center" have successfully supported legal cases defending environmental and human rights in Nigeria. For example, with the support of SERAC, thousands across the Niger Delta succeeded in holding the Nigerian government and big oil companies accountable for their environmental pollution and human rights abuses.
The best organisations to approach will depend on the issue your case concerns. While some civil society organisations will offer general support, others are limited to their area.
(c) Government Offices and Public Bodies
Depending on what country you are in, there may be a public body (government run or funded institution) which can offer you support with your legal case. Public bodies can have significant resources and mandates to help enforce the law and protect people's rights generally, or on a specific issue. This may even be the case if your case is being brought against the government, as some public bodies operate independently of the government in charge.
Examples of public bodies that could help include:
The police or prosecution service, who can investigate and bring criminal cases forward (and sometimes other types of cases too).
Public defenders and legal services, who can bring cases forward if you don't have enough resources and the case involves a matter of public interest.
Regulatory bodies, who are charged with monitoring misconduct in a certain area (e.g. the mining industry).
Government ministries who, if the issue involves their area, may offer support or actually bring the case.
National human rights institutions (sometimes called human rights commissions or the ombudsman) which are funded by the government to monitor and protect human rights in their country.
Anti-corruption agencies, who investigate and bring cases relating to corruption.
Example: South African Human Rights Commission's Legal Services Unit
The South African Human Rights Commission's Legal Services Unit works to enforce human rights provisions in the South African constitution. They have supported several cases, defending education, housing rights and much more.
(d) International Non-Governmental Organisations
International NGOs are non-profit organisations which are independent of government, and advocate for causes such as human rights and environmental protection. NGOs are often big organisations with a lot of resources. If your case concerns an issue which they are advocating for, they may want to give you financial, practical, and legal support.
Practical Tip
Find out if there are any NGOs who work on issues like yours, and approach them asking for advice and support. Even if they can't support you directly, they have big networks and may be able to direct you to another organisation which can help.
Examples of NGOs include:
General human rights groups, e.g. Amnesty International and Oxfam
Specialist organisations focusing on a single issue, e.g. Transparency International (an anti-corruption organisation)
Environmental groups, e.g. Greenpeace or EarthRights
Humanitarian organisations, e.g. The Red Cross
Example: Minority Rights Group
Minority Rights Group, an international NGO fighting discrimination and protecting minorities from human rights abuses, has successfully, supported, fought and won cases on behalf of minority groups across the world. Notably, they recently prevented the removal of 35,000 indigenous people from their land in Kenya.
(e) Regional and International Organisations
International organisations are organisations that countries are members of, and have been created to deal with certain (sometimes very broad) issues. Generally, they have a lot of resources and may be able to support your legal case if it is connected to an area of their work.
(i) The United Nations
Every country is a member of the UN, making it the world's biggest international organisation. The UN deals with issues ranging from peace/security, human rights, environment, public health, and humanitarian aid.
Within the UN there are a range of different bodies dealing with specific areas, including:
OHCHR: The main body in the UN for the protection of human rights. This includes the UN Human Rights Council and Special Rapporteurs on specific issues such as business and human rights.
UNHCR: The main body in the UN for the protection of refugee rights.
IOM: A UN agency for protecting migrants' rights.
ILO: The main UN agency on protecting workers' rights.
Find the body most relevant to your issue and research whether they could support you in some way.
Example: The UNHCR
The UNHCR work extensively around the work supporting asylum seekers in the legal process of obtaining refugee status. This includes advising those in need, providing evidence, and raising awareness about cases.
(ii) Other International Organisations
Beyond the UN, there are a variety of different international organisations which work in specific areas or with specific groups of countries. If your issue is related to the organisation's area of work or happened in the region they operate in, they may be able to help you.
Often, the most helpful international organisations will be regional organisations. These organisations cover a wide range of areas in their geographic area and often have specific bodies that focus on human rights and environmental issues. These bodies include:
The Organisation of American States (The Americas)
The European Union (Europe)
The Council of Europe (Europe)
The African Union (Africa)
ECOWAS (West Africa)
SADC (Southern Africa)
EAC (East Africa)
ASEAN (South East Asia)
SAARC (South Asia)
The OECD (developed countries from across the world)
Example: The Inter-American Commission on Human Rights Legal Assistance Fund
In the OAS system, there is a legal assistance fund to help people without enough finances to bring cases before the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights.

When you hear about the "self-righteous," who are the first people to come to mind? Pharisees? Fundamentalists? Democrats? Republicans? Vegans? Carnivores? No-carb zealots? Whoever it is, I guarantee you, you didn't think of yourself. You are certainly not self-righteous! You're definitely not like those people!! Oops. We all struggle with the sin of self-righteousness. We are all like the Pharisee in Jesus' parable, who prays: "God, I thank you that I am not like other men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even like this tax collector. I fast twice a week; I give tithes of all that I get."
The sin of self-righteousness is everyone's blind spot, and the longer you're a Christian, and the more successful you are at growing in personal righteousness, the greater your unwitting bent toward self-righteousness. Self-righteousness is the self-satisfaction of being "better than." If you're self-disciplined about your diet and exercise, you feel superior to those who aren't. The more fiscally responsible you are, the more you judge those saddled with credit card debt and auto-payments. The more you read your Bible, pray, go to church, help the poor, the more likely you are to condescendingly look down on the back-sliders and spiritual slackers. We aren't just moral creatures, we're moralistic creatures, and self-righteousness is the default setting of the human heart.
Many of us have learned to repent of our sins. We all need to learn to repent of our righteousness, through which we attempt to earn or sustain our standing before God and others. Join us tomorrow as we study Jonah chapter 4, and attempt to let the Holy Scriptures diagnose and heal our self-righteous hearts.

The incidence of bullying is high among adolescents. Adolescents who were victims of bullying have a higher risk of self-harm and suicidal behavior than adolescents who were non-victims. However, research on suicide and both traditional and cyber bullying was limited in China. Therefore, this study examined the associations between Chinese adolescents who were the victims of traditional and cyber bullying and the prevalence of suicidal ideation, self-harm and suicide attempts.
This was a population-based study of 2647 students (51.2% girls) with a mean age of 13.6 ± 1.1 years from 10 junior high schools in Shantou, China. Information on bullying victimization, suicidal ideation, self-harm and suicide attempts were collected using a self-administered questionnaire and the psychopathology of the students was assessed using the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ). The associations were examined with multinomial logistic regression, adjusted for covariates.
Traditional bullying victimization was reported by 16.7% of the adolescents, cyber bullying victimization by 9.0% and both by 3.5%. The prevalence of suicidal ideation was 23.5%, self-harm was 6.2% and suicide attempts was 4.2%. Psychopathology symptoms were risk factors for suicide ideation only, ideation plus self-harm, self-harm only and suicide attempts. Victims of both traditional and cyber bullying had the highest risk of suicidal ideation only, ideation plus self-harm and suicide attempts, compared to those reporting one form of bullying. Victims of cyber bullying only had the second highest risk of suicidal ideation only and suicidal ideation plus self-harm compared to non-victims.
Adolescents who were victims of both traditional and cyber bullying had greater risks of adverse outcomes of suicidal ideation only, suicidal ideation plus self-harm and suicide attempts. The results of the current study suggest that those exposed to both forms of bullying should be routinely screened for suicidal risk. In addition, school-based anti-bully interventions should also target cyber bullying.
Bullying is an intentional and aggressive behavior that is performed repeatedly and based on an imbalance of power between the perpetrators and the victims [1, 2]. Traditionally, bullying has been physical and verbal, which are direct forms of bullying, and relational, which is an indirect form of victimization that features exclusion and spreading rumors [3]. The rapid development of online communication, and the widespread use of instant messaging on social networking platforms, has led to the emergence of cyber bullying. This can be defined as repeated aggressive, intentional acts carried out electronically over a period of time by a group or an individual, against a victim who cannot defend themselves easily [4].
The worldwide prevalence of traditional bullying has been reported to range from 16 to 36% [5,6,7], whereas studies have stated that the prevalence of cyber bullying ranges from 10 to 57% [8,9,10,11] during childhood or adolescence. According to previous studies, most adolescents who experienced cyber bullying also experienced traditional bullying [12, 13]. Previous reports strongly suggest that bullying-related phenomena can differ between cultures [14]. Even in China, the prevalence of bullying and peer victimization varies from school to school [15].
Traditional and cyber bullying can have an adverse impact on the mental health of child and adolescent victims [11, 16, 17]. Both forms of bullying have been associated with depression [18], anxiety [19], low self-esteem [20], difficulties with relationships, school absenteeism [21] and substance abuse [22].
In addition, they have been reported to be associated with suicidal behavior and self-harm among adolescents [23]. Most of the studies that have been published have focused on the association between traditional bullying and suicidal risk [23,24,25], but some studies have also examined cyber bullying [26,27,28,29]. Studies that have quantified the risk have indicated that the harm caused by cyber bullying was comparable to traditional bullying [30, 31], whereas others have reported that cyber bullying may be even more distressing and cause greater psychological impairment than traditional school bullying [32].
To date, only a few studies have examined the associations between children and adolescents being the victims of a combination of traditional and cyber bullying, referred to as combined bullying in this paper, and suicide related outcomes. However, the results of these studies have not been consistent. On the one hand, some studies [33, 34] found that those exposed to combined bullying had the highest risk of suicidal ideation, suicidal plans, self-injury and suicide attempts. On the other hand, a longitudinal study conducted by Bannink et al. [35] found that adolescents exposed to combined bullying had no more risk of suicidal ideation than those who were the victims of either traditional or cyber bullying. These studies each included different outcomes: suicide ideation only [35], suicide ideation, suicide attempts and self-harm [34] and suicide ideation, plans, attempts and attempts requiring hospitalization [33].
To the best of our knowledge, none of the studies that have examined combined bullying have included the range of different suicide and self-injurious outcomes that can occur, while controlling for psychopathology. Moreover, studies on this issue have mainly been conducted among adolescents in Western countries. Examining the association between bullying victims and suicidal risk in China is particularly important because a lot of vicious school bullying incidents have been exposed on the Internet and people have become increasingly more aware about school bullying. Despite this, even some professionals who work with children may not always recognize bullying and understand its harmful effects. In addition, suicidality is still prevalent among adolescents in China [36].
The current study from China will add to the studies currently available from western countries. Our study included the distinct outcomes that represent various combinations of suicidality and self-harm, namely: suicidal ideation only, suicide ideation plus self-harm, self-harm only and suicide attempts.
The specific aims of the current study were three-fold. First we wanted to examine the prevalence of bullying, suicidal ideation, self-harm and suicide attempts among junior high school students in China. Our second aim was to explore the potential risk factors of suicidal ideation, self-harm and suicide attempts. Third, we aimed to examine the associations between traditional, cyber and combined bullying with suicidal ideation, self-harm and suicide attempts among the study population.
Study population and procedure
The study was conducted in October and November 2016 in the city of Shantou, which is located in the Eastern Guangdong Province of southern China. The research object of this study consisted of students in grades 7–9, with a mean age of 13.6 ± 1.1 years. Shantou can be divided into three areas: urban (including three districts), suburban (including three districts) and islands (including one county). Using stratified random sampling, we randomly selected 10 junior high schools and collected data from 3300 students. Five of the study sites were urban schools, three were suburban schools and two were island schools. They comprised eight government-funded schools and two private schools. The study was approved by the Ethics Committee of Shantou University Medical College and obtained permission from all the junior high schools. All the participants and their guardians agreed and provided signed, informed assent or consent on a voluntarily basis. The questionnaires were distributed to the participants by the researchers and schoolteachers and the students completed the questionnaires anonymously during a school class. The completed questionnaires were placed into an envelope, which was sealed in front of the students, and sent back to the researchers. We excluded 653 questionnaires as some of the students did not fill in the questionnaire or some questionnaires were missing too much data. In total, 2647 questionnaires were completed and included in the statistical analysis.
Bullying victimization
The participants were asked about whether they had been bullied over the past 6 months. Traditional bullying was described in the questionnaire as: "A student is being bullied when he or she is exposed repeatedly over time to negative and hurtful actions on the part of one or more students. It is difficult for the student being bullied to defend himself or herself. Bullying may take place frequently or infrequently. Bullying can be verbal (e.g. name-calling, threats), physical (e.g. hitting), or psychological (e.g. rumors, shunning/exclusion). It is bullying when someone is teasing repeatedly in a mean or hurtful way." We then asked the students further questions, such as how often they had been bullied at school or outside school during the past 6 months, and the possible answers were never, less than once a week, more than once a week and almost every day. The last three options were considered as being victimized at least sometimes. Cyber bullying was defined as: "when someone repeatedly makes fun of another person online or repeatedly picks on another person through e-mail or text messages or when someone posts something online about another person that they don't like." The participants were asked how often they had been cyber bullied during the past 6 months. The responses and the definition of sometimes were the same as for traditional bullying.
For the analysis, the participants were placed into categories based on their responses to traditional and cyber bullying victimization: 1) no form of bullying, 2) traditional bullying only, 3) cyber bullying only 4) a combination of traditional and cyber bullying.
Suicidal ideation, self-harm and suicide attempts
Three questions concerning suicidal ideation, self-harm and suicide attempts were included in the questionnaire. Participants were asked whether they had seriously thought about committing suicide, whether they had intentionally hurt themselves by cutting or burning their skin during the past 6 months or whether they had actually tried to commit suicide. The possible answers were never, once and repeatedly and the last two options were combined as yes. As we suspected that some of the students would have simultaneously experienced suicidal ideation, self-harm and suicide attempts, we divided the participants' responses into: 1) none of the above, 2) suicide ideation only, 3) simultaneous suicidal ideation and self-harm but not suicide attempts, 4) self-harm only, and 5) suicide attempts, regardless of whether they experienced suicidal ideation or self-harm.
Psychopathology symptoms
The strengths and difficulties questionnaire (SDQ) [37] was used to assess the participants' psychopathology symptoms. The SDQ is a brief behavioral screening questionnaire for 3–16 year old that comprises 25 items on psychological attributes. Each item has three options - not true, somewhat true, and certainly true - which are scored as zero, one and two respectively. These 25 items are divided into five sub-scales, with five items in each sub-scale: 1) emotional symptoms, 2) conduct problems, 3) hyperactivity/inattention, 4) peer relationship problems and 5) prosocial behavior. In this study, sub-scales one to four were used to create a total difficulties score for psychopathology symptoms with 20 items. We removed item 19 from the analysis, which related to other children or young people picking on the respondent, because it was already covered in detail in the main bullying questionnaire. Therefore, the total psychopathology scores ranged from 0 to 38.
A descriptive analysis was performed to describe the participants' sociodemographic characteristics and the prevalence of bullying victimization, suicidal ideation, self-harm and suicide attempts. Multinomial logistic regressions were conducted to examine the associations between traditional, cyber and combined bullying and suicidal ideation, self-harm and suicide attempts. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were estimated. The gender and age of the respondent, whether the school was suburban, urban or on an island, the type of school and psychopathology were included as covariates in the logistic regression. P values of less than 0.05 were considered statistically significant. The data were analyzed with SPSS Statistics, version 23 (IBM Corporation, Armonk, NY, USA).
Demographic characteristics of the participants
A total of 2647 participants participated in the study and there were slightly more girls (51.2%). The distribution of the grades, the urbanity of the school and the type of school the participants attended are shown in Table 1.
Table 1 Participants' demographic characteristics and frequency distribution of behavior related to suicide and self-harm. No. (%)
Prevalence of bullying victimization and psychopathology symptoms
In this survey, 442 of the 2647 (16.7%) students reported being victimized by traditional bullying and 238 (9.0%) students were victims of cyber bullying. Of those, 350 (13.2%) students were victims of cyber bullying only, 146 (5.5%) students were victims of traditional bullying only and 92 (3.5%) students were victims of combined bullying (Table 1). The mean and standard deviations (SD) for the total psychopathology score of the participants was 11.3 ± 4.3.
Prevalence of suicidal ideation, self-harm and suicide attempts
There were 621 (23.5%) students who reported suicide ideation, 165 (6.2%) who reported self-harm and 110 (4.2%) who had attempted suicide. Following the classification mentioned above, suicide ideation only was reported by 439 (16.6%) students, suicide ideation plus self-harm by 79 (3.0%) students, self-harm only by 35 (1.3%) students and suicide attempts by 110 (4.2%) students (Table 1).
Associations between bullying victimization and suicidal ideation, self-harm and suicide attempts
In the simple logistic regression model (Table 2), traditional, cyber and combined bullying victimization were associated with suicidal ideation, self-harm and suicide attempts. There were no responses in relation to combined bullying and self-harm only and therefore that specific association was not estimated. We examined the risk posed by combined bullying, cyber bullying only and traditional bullying only. The respective risks for the three categories were: suicide ideation only (combined OR 4.6, 95% CI 2.9–7.5 versus cyber OR 2.7, 95% CI 1.8–4.0 versus traditional OR 1.6, 95% CI 1.2–2.2), suicidal ideation plus self-harm (combined OR 6.0, 95% CI 2.5–14.0 versus cyber OR 3.6, 95% CI 1.7–7.7 versus traditional OR 2.0, 95% CI 1.1–3.6) and suicide attempts (combined OR 8.1, 95% CI 4.1–15.9 versus cyber OR 3.0, 95% CI 1.5–6.0 versus traditional OR 2.0, 95% CI 1.2–3.4). The risk of cyber bullying only on self-harm was greater than that of traditional bullying only (OR 4.7, 95% CI 1.7–12.8 versus OR 2.9, 95% CI 1.3–6.5).
Table 2 Results of simple factor and multiple factors multinomial logistic regression of suicidal ideation, self-harm, and suicide attempts
In the multinomial logistic regression models (Table 2), the associations between traditional, cyber and combined bullying and suicidal ideation, self-harm and suicide attempts became somewhat attenuated, after controlling for psychopathology symptoms, gender, grade, the urbanity of the school and the type of the school. Combined bullying (OR 3.9, 95% CI 2.3–6.6), cyber bullying only (OR 2.4, 95% CI 1.5–3.6) and traditional bullying only (OR 1.4, 95% CI 1.0–1.9) were significantly associated with suicidal ideation only. When it came to suicidal ideation plus self-harm, combined bullying and cyber bullying only were significant (OR 4.3, 95% CI 1.7–10.8 and OR 2.8, 95% CI 1.2–6.1). Cyber bullying only (OR 4.3, 95% CI 1.5–12.1) and traditional bullying only (OR 2.8, 95% CI 1.2–6.5) were also significantly associated with self-harm only. Combined bullying was the only category that was significantly associated with suicide attempts (OR 5.1, 95% CI 2.3–11.2).
We also compared the three types of bullying in terms of the risk of self-harm and suicide-related outcomes (Table 3). With regard to suicide ideation, those who were victims of combined bullying (OR 2.8, 95% CI 1.6–5.1) and those who were subjected to cyber bullying only (OR 1.7, 95% CI 1.1–2.9) had a higher risk than those who were the victims of traditional bullying only. Those students who were subjected to combined bullying had a higher risk of suicide ideation plus self-harm (OR 3.3, 95% CI 1.2–9.4) and suicide attempts (OR 3.2, 95% CI 1.3–8.3) compared to those who were victims of traditional bullying only.
Table 3 The risk of behavior related to suicide and self-harm between different types of bullying victimization
Other factors related to suicidal ideation, self-harm and suicide attempts
The multinomial logistic regression model showed that psychopathology symptoms, gender, the urbanity of the school and the type of the school were associated with suicidal ideation, self-harm and suicide attempts. Psychopathology symptoms were risk factors for all of the self-harm and suicidal behaviors. Girls faced a higher risk of suicidal ideation only, suicidal ideation plus self-harm and suicide attempts compared to boys. Students attending urban schools had a higher risk of suicidal ideation only compared to those from island schools. Students at local government-funded schools had a lower risk of suicidal ideation only, but a higher risk of self-harm only, compared to those at private schools.
The main finding of the current study was that being a victim of both traditional and cyber bullying had the strongest association with all suicide outcomes, even after controlling for baseline psychopathology. We particularly found that those who were victims of combined bullying faced the highest risk of suicide ideation only, suicidal ideation plus self-harm and suicide attempts, compared to those who were subjected to only one type of bullying. Although the students that were subjected to combined bullying accounted for the minority of the bullying victims - 3.5% of the students - they faced the highest risk of negative outcomes.
These results were in line with previous studies that found that those who experienced both traditional and cyber bullying were the most vulnerable group when it came to both emotional difficulties [38] and suicide risk [33, 39]. These results were also in line with some studies that examined the victims of various combinations of bullying and found that poly victimization was associated with a high risk of maladjustment [12] and suicidal ideation and/or behavior [40, 41]. It could also be that those who were targeted by both types of bullying felt that they did not have a safe place to escape to. This may cause unbearable mental pain [42] and lack of belonging, which increases their risk of suicidality [43]. The findings of our study are different to some previous studies, which showed that when psychopathology was controlled for, the risk for suicidality often diminished [44]. These different findings may be explained by the fact that not all studies addressed the effects of combined forms of bullying.
Our study results indicate that the second highest risk group, after those who endured combined bullying, were those who were victims of cyber bullying only, followed by those who were victims of traditional bullying only. It is important to note that 5.5% of the students in the current sample were victims of cyber bullying only. These findings were higher than a UK study [12], where just 1% of the research object were victims of cyber bullying only. Our results about the unique contribution of cyber victimization in suicide risk, over and above the contribution of traditional forms of bullying, were in line with previous studies that indicated that this form of bullying could be more harmful than traditional bullying [32]. Cyber bullying is not restricted to school grounds and hours. It can happen at any time of the day or night and be spread across a wide social network, leaving students feeling extremely isolated, dehumanized and/or helpless [4].
The prevalence of bullying in this study was lower than the rates reported by other studies [8, 17, 45] and the prevalence of self-harm was also lower than the levels reported by a previous review [46]. The prevalence of bullying in different countries around the globe may have been related to variations in cultural, religious and economic backgrounds [47, 48] and the time periods covered in various studies [17]. When we examined the association between the urbanity of the school and suicide and self-harm, the students in urban schools were at higher risk of suicidal ideation only compared to students attending the island schools. This result was different from another study in China [49], which indicated that students living in rural households had a higher risk of suicidal ideation than those living in urban households. These discrepancies can be explained by the fact that students attending the urban schools in the Shantou area may have experienced greater academic pressure than students attending island schools.
There are several limitations to the current study that need to be considered when interpreting the findings. First, the cross-sectional study design made it difficult to draw a causal association between victimization and suicidal ideation, self-harm and suicide attempts. Second, the participants completed self-reported questionnaires and the responses may have been subject to recall bias and self-reporting bias. Third, we did not consider other potential confounders, such as family or parental factors, which may have had an impact on the association between bullying victimization and suicidality. Fourth, the results about self-harm only may have limitations to extend to other junior high school students, as the sample size of self-harm only group is small.
Despite these limitations, the findings of this study have a number of important clinical and public mental health implications. Any assessments carried out on students bullying should take both traditional and cyber bullying into account. Our findings highlight the need to support victims of all forms of victimization and to pay particular attention to those who are victims of both traditional and cyber bullying, as they face the greatest risk of suicidality. These findings have considerable importance for a country like China, which has a large student population. Further research needs to be carried out on this subject and we suggest that any research should use a longitudinal multi-center design, for example including several provinces in China and adjusting for other potential cofounders, such as family or parental factors.
Preventing the serious effects of cyber bullying on the quality of life of children and adolescents, and specifically the risk of suicidality, is vital given the fact that children spend increasing amounts of time in the digital world. At the same time, there is also a clear need for intervention programs to address both traditional and cyber bullying simultaneously, as this combined form of bullying poses even greater risks to young people.

Mar 26, 2014 … Those who have experienced the convenience that an automatic garage door offers will likely never go back to a manually opening door.
If your garage door won't open, don't panic. There are a number of repairs that might fix the problem and you can avoid buying an entirely new garage door. There are two main parts to a garage door system: the garage door and the garage door opener, which controls the door's movement.
Home Matters Blog. How to Manually Open a Garage Door. Related: 30 Minutes To a More Organized Garage.
How to Open Your Garage Door Manually. Ensure your garage door is fully closed, then disconnect the garage door opener. Lift the garage door straight up until the door is fully open. Make sure the door will remain fully open before leaving it unattended.
To manually open most garage doors, you simply pull a corded handle that is attached to the door. This disengages the electric drive from the door and you can manually open and close it. To reset it, begin by pulling the cord in the opposite direction.

Why your emergency fund might not be big enough
The extent and cost of emergencies can be wide-ranging
Photo (c) Greentree - Fotolia
One of the goals of savers, besides putting money away for retirement, is to have a "rainy day" fund, enough money on hand to cover a financial emergency, such as car repair bill or trip to the emergency room.
Other emergencies can include a sudden loss of income, such as losing your job. Personal finance experts generally recommend, as a rule of thumb, to have savings equal to six months of income. But how many households can actually do that?
A recent report by personal finance site Bankrate says more than half of consumers do not have enough money on hand to pay an unexpected $500 car repair bill. While these bills don't crop up every month, they do occur.
And even if you do have an emergency fund, it might not have enough money in it to meet today's unexpected expenses. After all, car repair bills can be a lot more than $500.
62% say they would struggle
A survey conducted by Harris Poll on behalf of Oasis Financial found that even though 63% of consumers said they have an emergency fund, 62% of consumers think they would struggle financially if their income were interrupted for three months.
"The survey illuminates the need for Americans to evaluate their finances honestly, with an eye toward the unexpected," said Ralph Shayne, CEO of Oasis Financial.
Sometimes emergency situations are covered by insurance, but the coverage can be spotty in some cases, the survey found. A wide majority of consumers in the survey think consumers have to fight insurance companies to get a fair and timely settlement.
How much to save each month?
Shayne says consumers should dedicate a portion of their income to savings each month. How much? Experts at TIAA say the percentage will vary, depending on your goals. But as far as an emergency fund goes, it recommends between three and nine months of current income.
To get there, it suggests identifying all the non-essential spending in your monthly budget, such as cable TV, and divide that number in half. That, the company says, is the amount you need to put away each month to get an adequate emergency fund within a year.
Forbes counsels that three months of income in savings may only be adequate if you're single, renting, and have the option of moving back in with your parents.

Meet the Founder: Tim Sykes
Timothy Sykes is a well-renowned day trading guru who has been famously known for delving his hands into penny stock trading. According to Investopedia, a penny stock refers to a small-sized company's shares that trade for less than $5 per share. The penny stock market is an opportunity for small businesses to transition into a larger market because they can access funds from the public. However, don't get it wrong – it's also a high-risk game, which Sykes is sure to reveal thanks to his years of experience.
Since his initial beginnings in his late years in the high schools, Tim Sykes has, since then, made over $6 million of profits during his long and successful career as trader. At the age of 25 Tim Sykes had received greater exposure and a larger influence over time as a participant in the reality series "Wall Street Warriors." Then, he used the opportunity to develop trading rooms and penny stock themes as well as educational content targeted at those who are new to the trading field. He also helped to establish Profit.ly as a platform for transparency and for the community to lift each other up and compete with each other on the platform.
One of Profit.ly's amazing features is the vast array of learning sources, trade alerts as well as other useful information provided by the company's internal gurus. The gurus in question refer to the trading experts who have earned significant amounts of profit through their years of experience. Tim Sykes Challenge Login
At its peak, Profit.ly had housed up to five gurus, all of them an expert in their field of expertise in the trading industry. Some of the prominent experts were Connor Bruggermann, Nathan Michaud of Investors Underground, and Triforce, among a few others. At the time of writing, however, only two gurus remain on this platform: Founder of the penny stock market Tim Sykes and veteran smallcap swing trader Paul Scolardi, also known as Superman. With that taken into consideration we'll take a look at the packaged offers each guru offers.

If you're eager to join the trading community on the internet and leave a mark in the market, Profit.ly has the right amount of resources to help you started.

This package for novices is Profit.ly's basic plan that is designed specifically for those who are just beginning their journey to the trading world. Once you have signed up for this package you'll be offered a range of strong and essential trading tools, all of them integral in keeping your fingers on what can describe as a cutthroat process by itself.

It also allows you to be onto leaderboards; study, sort, and filter your trades; and lastly, look at other's stats.
The Novice plan is $29.95 per monthly payment. Although it looks attractive for the price alone, there is a downside.

The Trader Plan
The Trader package allows users to benefit from a majority of features from the novice plan. It is in this plan that you can set up an account that is private to share with fellow associate users all the insights and intel in the trading community.
The price is $49.95/month, Profit.ly's Trader plan is exactly what it says catering to those who desire to harness their trading skills. Although it's a nice thing however, there's a crucial aspect that's not included. In contrast to the Novice package, you won't be able to see the statistics of other traders, which could be a disadvantage for those eager to try this new tier. Tim Sykes Challenge Login
The Pro plan is the highest luxurious package Profit.ly can offer to experienced traders. At $74.95 each month and 22% off when billed annually This plan offers everything. It gives you full, unlimited access to all the options of the prior plans.

One of those is its online store, which allows users to pick from a range of videos that are designed to educate and provide guidance on the ins and outs of trading.

The integrated chat rooms are also part of Profit.ly's variety of services and features. You are probably familiar with chat rooms since you can see it across messaging and social platforms, and also on a few specialty websites that provide live chat assistance. However, in Profit.ly the chat room is viewed as a real-time space where experts and their members can interact and exchange knowledge in real-time. Every guru has their own way in running their chat rooms and in dealing with the members. Some may be more laid back and rarely engaged, while another could be more active and in touch with their students. Consider chat rooms as Profit.ly's version of a forum, in essence.

FAQ Tim Sykes Challenge Login
How can you make use of Profit.ly to make your trades public?
Profit.ly includes a trade entry portion in the "My Trade' category of the dashboard. It lets you post your trades, either verified or otherwise. There are three options:
Linking your account with your brokerage of choice and then importing trades directly from there
Manually entering your trades into specified spaces and information.
Take a photo of your trades
What can I do to determine whether the trade is authentic or not?
If you purchase your trade through a reliable brokerage, there's the probability that it's verifiable. This is shown by the small blue check. If you post it manually or through pictures, it will be assigned as unverified.
The disadvantage of an unverified trade is the chance of receiving negative feedback from fellow peers. A large number of downvotes could result in you appearing at the top of the Madoff leaderboard, which is where the public can see who's untruthful in submitting trades.
As of the moment, Profit.ly is still available to download from the App Store for Apple and the Google Play store. The mobile version of the app is compatible with most working smartphones and tablets.
