The Rise and Fall of the Titans.
The Creation of Mythology. Gaea, the Earth, came out of the darkness so long ago that no one knows when or how. Earth was young and lonesome, for nothing lived on her yet. She created Uranus, the Sky, dark and blue, set all over with sparkling stars. He was magnificent to behold and Earth fell in love with him. Soon young Earth became Mother Earth. All her children loved their warm and bountiful mother and feared their mighty father, Uranus, lord of the universe. The Titans were the first children of Mother Earth, the first gods, taller than the mountains Earth created them for thrones. Both Gaea and Uranus were proud of the Titans. There were six Titans, they had six sisters, the Titanesses, whom they took for wives. When Earth gave birth again, Sky was not happy, their new children were also huge, but they only had one huge glowing eye in the center of their head; these were the three Cyclopse and they named Lightning, Thunder and Thunderbolt. They were not handsome but were extremely strong smiths. Sparks from their hammers flashed across the sky and Uranus' stars faded. After a while Gaea bore three more sons, Uranus looked down in disgust, they were ugly monsters with 50 heads. Sky hated to see such ugly creatures walking on beautiful Earth. He seized his horrible children and locked them in Tartarus, the deepest, darkest pit under the Earth. Gaea could never forgive her cruel husband, so out of the hardest flint she fashioned a sickle and spoke to the Titans: "Take this weapon, make an end to your father's cruelty and set your brothers free." All but one, the youngest, Cronus, backed down in fear. Cronus was the youngest but strongest, he took the sickle and cut of his cruel father's genitalia. Where the blood hit Earth Pontus, the Seas, came forth. She took Pontus as her second husband, and from this union the gods of the watery depths came up. And from her rich ground grew an abundance of trees, flowers and, out of her crevices, sprites, beasts and early man crept forth. Now Cronus was lord of the sky. This was what was called man's golden age. Cronus knew that history would repeat itself and his children would overthrow him someday. To prevent this tradgedy Cronus devoured all of the children that his wife and sister Rhea, bore to him. Soon Rhea got mad, all of her sisters were surrounded by her children, and she was all alone. When Rhea was again pregnant she whispered to her mother, Gaea to help her save her unborn child from certain doom. Earth was still mad at Cronus for not releasing his brothers from tartarus, and told her to wrap a rock in baby clothes and give it to Cronus and hide her child Zeus on the island of Crete. Her plan was successful and Zeus grew up tended by nymphs and the fairy goat Amaltheia, which gave an unlimited supply of necter and ambrosia, the food and drink of the gods. When he was grown he sacrificed the goat and in thanks, he gave the nymphs the horns of the goats and from it's hide he made himself the Aegis, his and later Athena's armour. He was strong enough now to beat Cronus. First Zeus married Metis, the daughter of Oceanus, for his first wife. She told him that he may defeat Cronus but the other Titan's together would surely put an end to his rebellion, he needed the help of his 5 brothers and sisters, they were: Hestia, Hades, Poseidon, Demeter, and Hera. Metis confronted her uncle Cronus and gave him a magical herb, she told him it would make him stronger than ever, hastily Cronus ate the herb. Metis had tricked him, the herb had made Cronus so sick he puked up his five other children and the rock. Now Zeus had allies. The new gods or Olympians charged into battle with the help of two other Titan's, Prometheus and Epimetheus, Prometheus had the power to look into the future and saw the new order of Zeus, he told his brother's, but only Epimeteus listened. Atlas, the other brother did not. Zeus freed the Cyclopes's and their brothers, the monsters were so grateful they made each god a gift, for Poseidon a trident, the ground shook when he smashed the trident into it and frothing waves stood mountain high. For Hades they made a cap of invisibility, so he could strike his enemies unseen. And finally for Zeus they forged lightning bolts, with his lightning, nothing could stand up to him. The gods and Titans fought each other with all their might, but it was all in vain. The gods had won and locked the Titans into tartarus for the rest of time.


Louis Slobodkin (1903-1975) was an artist and illustrator and writer of books for children. He won the Caldecott Medal in 1943 for Many Moons. The collection contains artwork, manuscripts, correspondence, publicity, photographs, and memorabilia.
The focus of the Louis Slobodkin Papers is his work as an author and illustrator of books, primarily children's books. The collection consists of manuscripts, artwork, incoming and outgoing letters, publicity and memorabilia. Manuscripts typically begin with a pencil holograph draft in an unruled spiral-bound or composition notebook. Early studies or page layouts are also found in these, sometimes standing alone. Usually there is no title, date or author's signature in these.
Louis Slobodkin would then go back to his initial sketches and rough layouts, design the book in his head, and mark the typescript with page breaks to match up the illustrations with the text. Then, he would work up his final drawings, including those for the book cover and jacket. Much of this work is in ink and watercolor, some in ink and pastel. There are a number of books by other authors for which he did ink line drawings only, such as The Moffats by Eleanor Estes, but he much preferred to work in full color, trying to achieve maximum impact from very bright primary colors (see Magic Michael, Clear the Tracks, The Cowboy Twins, and Jonathan and the Rainbow). It is interesting to note the deterioration in delicate details, so important to his gently humorous style, in the transition from the key drawing to the finished book. Louis Slobodkin was often at odds with the printers over this, not only because he wanted to preserve the integrity of his artistic conceptions, but because he believed children were conscious of quality in books, and chose accordingly. This point is documented in the series of publishers' letters and in several speeches and radio scripts, all of which are part of the collection.

Eleanor Beaton: Empowering women worldwide
All over the world, women executives and entrepreneurs are learning how to position themselves as leaders and experts in their fields. Eleanor Beaton of Windsor, Nova Scotia, is helping them develop their influencing skills so they can attract more clients, grow their businesses, and advance their careers.
Until five years ago, Eleanor ran her business as a consultant, working individually with clients in Nova Scotia and Ontario. At the time, she was doing a lot of consulting with CEOs who were leading fast-growing businesses. She realized that her one-to-one consulting business model was really going to limit her growth, and she asked herself, "How can I change my business model and expand it so that I can help even more people?"
Today, 85% of her clients – and 85% of her total revenues – come from outside Atlantic Canada, including places such as the United States, Europe, the United Kingdom, the Middle East, India, and Australia.
Although Eleanor still does one-to-one mentoring, the main revenue engines in her business now are online training programs. She takes cohorts of women from all over the world through her Impact and Influence for Women Leadership Lab. "I'm able to use technology to serve international clients from here," she says.
To develop her business, Eleanor was investing heavily to travel to conferences and to grow international markets and access international clients. Then, at a Centre for Women in Business networking event, she heard about Nova Scotia Business Inc.'s (NSBI) Export Growth Program.
She applied in 2015 and used the NSBI program to attend conferences in Texas and Arizona. She spoke at a conference and networked with Fortune 500 and Fortune 100 companies.
"The Export Growth Program helped offset the cost of travelling to those markets, to network, to talk about my business, to get in front of decision-makers at large corporations," she says. "That has led not only to business but also to ongoing conversations with human resources vice-presidents at fairly large financial institutions in the US."
Eleanor understands the trials facing entrepreneurs. "The biggest challenge for entrepreneurs can be loneliness," she says. "There are high moments and triumphs, but behind the scenes there's so much work to make sure you've got the right processes and systems in place and a business model that you can scale. In order for a business to grow, it needs fuel, and that fuel is cash."
However, accessing funding is not all that matters. "What's also important is what the NSBI programming signifies," she says. "It's that there's an organization and there are people who are supporting you and who have said, 'Yes – you are doing something that solves a problem. You have a business here that's worthy of us investing even more.' And that's a great feeling."
Growing a world-class business from Nova Scotia is possible, Eleanor knows. "But you don't do that on your own," she says. "It takes support. I work with a great team of people, but it also takes the support of an organization like NSBI."
In late March, Eleanor was invited to be one of eight Global Advisors to the Visiting Women's Executive Exchange Program (VWEEP) at Yale University. "This is related to the export development work I've been doing," she says.
Nova Scotia Business Inc. is dedicated to supporting the growth of business in Nova Scotia. Our team of Regional Business Development Advisors is available to assess your needs and provide practical advice on taking your next steps toward growth in global markets.
The Export Growth Program supports businesses looking to increase their export sales outside of Nova Scotia. The program provides financial incentives for projects that assist a business's ability to overcome barriers to export growth.

Luis Rodriguez, the Green Party's pick for governor in 2014, stopped in Los Angeles this week to raise money for his campaign. Appearing at a news conference in Venice, Rodriguez said his campaign will be about an often unheard demographic in American politics: the poor.
Rodriguez's goal is not an easy one, nor is it new. He wants to end poverty in California, a largely ignored objective in a California gubernatorial campaign since Upton Sinclair ran for governor in 1934.
Inspired by socialist principles, Sinclair wanted Sacramento to take over idle factories and farm land and establish cooperatives to alleviate hunger and unemployment. His campaign also called for tax reform and stipends for the elderly.
Although popular with many, Sinclair's movement met fierce opposition from business interests, particularly in Los Angeles, that hired a PR firm to organize an anti-Sinclair campaign. The Los Angeles Times told the public that Sinclair was attempting to "Sovietize California," and businesses threatened employees who planned to vote for Sinclair.
In the end, Sinclair was defeated, although those involved in his "End Poverty in California" campaign won 18 state assembly races and later managed to eliminate the state's tax on food sales.
Rodriguez admits that he faces a similar uphill battle, if not greater, against an American political system deluged in corporate money like never before. Nor does Rodriguez intend to accept corporate donations. Instead, he is working at a grassroots level by getting support from community organizations, such as Chicanos Unidos of Orange County and others. As a result, Rodriguez said that he is expecting criticism from business interests and the media.
That may be the easy part. As Rodriguez is a poet, author and a former gang member, he is already set apart from the political establishment. Furthermore, Rodriguez has spent over 40 years as a social justice advocate through his work as a labor organizer and a gang mediator. He also promotes the arts through his nonprofit: Tia Chucha's Centro Cultural and Bookstore, in Sylmar.
Rodriguez's news conference was held in Oakwood Park in Venice. Mark Lipman, who organized the event, said the site was chosen because of the effects of gentrification on the neighborhood. Lipman said too much attention is put on the positive aspects of gentrification for businesses and not enough on the negative impacts for the poor.
Lipman said that as a result of gentrification, poorer residents are being priced out of their neighborhood. Google, he said, moved into the area and got a two-year tax break from the city under the promise of their bringing jobs.
Rodriguez criticized Governor Jerry Brown, citing that since Brown took office, 2.7 million more Californians are living in poverty, particularly in the state's rural areas. His plan, however, to eliminate poverty in the state is still in its infancy. In response to reporters' questions, he admitted that he is still assembling a team to look into how exactly his goal could be achieved.
Though Rodriguez is endorsed by the Green Party, he is not yet on the ballot. His campaign is in the process of collecting signatures to be officially included in the race. Though he is facing an uphill battle, Rodriguez was positive about his chances of victory, as well as in building a movement.


SCAM ENGULFS HIGH TECH EDUCATION IN ORISSA: MERIT MARKERS SILENT!
A casual calculation leads to a scam exceeding Rs. 200 crore per annum in Orissa�s High-Tech education sector. But the merit markers are silent!
Only a few weeks ago, we have seen, in the name of merit, how a horrifying protest was raised against proposed reservation of seats for the socially disadvantaged in institutions of technical education.
The medicos, most of whom have been able to get admission into institutes of medical education simply because their parents have amassed enough money to meet the charges of coaching schools, were the ones, who whipped up an agitation that paralyzed the heath care sector of the nation for around a month, till at least the Supreme Court intervened.
Reservation was / is designed to do away with merit, they had argued.
But, we see, they refuse to see how merit is butchered by operators of high-tech education. We will concentrate only on the Orissa scenario as a matter of principle.
Let us start with the admission notice of Orissa Private Engineering College Association (OPECA) advertised in the media on 04 June 06.
It says, �Students who have just acquired a pass mark in 10+2 Science� are eligible to seek admission into B.Tech, MCA and Hotel management courses under its member institutions.
How many such seats are available to the third class students whose merit manifests at the high point of �just�.a pass mark� in 10+2 Science in Orissa?
Out of 12806 seats in Engineering in Orissa, 11916 seats belong to private Engineering Colleges and out of 816 seats in MCA and Hotel management, 664 belong to them. This means out of a total 13622 seats in B.Tech. MCA and HMCT in Orissa, 12580 seats belong to the members of OPECA. According to the notice noted supra, the private colleges �have decided to share 50% of the seats with the Government�. This means, 6290 seats in Colleges clubbed under OPECA are available to students having �acquired just a pass mark in 10+2 Science�.
And, who are these students, who, having �acquired just a pass mark in 10+2 Science, aspire to acquire degrees from high-tech institutions? They are they, whose parents have enough black money to pay.
So whosoever has sources of black money is considered meritorious enough to have a seat in high-tech institutions in Orissa with �just a pass mark� in 10+2 Science.
How much these institutes take to hold these fellows with �just a pass mark� as meritorious enough for high-tech education? Bargain begins from five lakhs of rupees.
In the Admission Rules it is stipulated that no college can demand extra money over and above the approved fees as per Industry Department Resolution No. 10823-I-TT-I-2005 Dated 03 June 2005. The approved fees are: Rs. 30,000/- for Engineering/Arch; Rs.36,000/- for MCA; Rs.40,000/- for Marine Engineering and Rs.45,000/- for MBA/ HMCT/ Pharmacy. But this resolution is a shield to cover up the black deal done clandestinely.
There is no punishment specified under the Rules against any contravention thereof. Rule 19 only says that if any of the instructions provided under the Rules is violated by any College a complain should be lodged to either the Vice-Chancellor of BPUT or Director of TE&T or the Joint Secretary of Industry Department. And the matter ends there. Neither any of these functionaries has any power or authority to take up any proceeding against any manager of any un-aided private college that violates the Rule nor any of them has any power to inspect any institute to spot any violation of the Rules.
The Rules begin with the declaration that �There shall be no State Quota or Management Quota and the Private un-aided Technical/ Professional Institutions are free to fill up their approved intake as per options exercised by them for 2006-2007�.
This is as per the Supreme Court decision in P.A. Inamdar Vrs State of Maharastra case.
So when the un-aided private techno colleges are admittedly free from Government control as per the Case Law made by the Apex Court judgment, entertainment of any complain against them by any of the above officials is bound to push the issue into the labyrinth of Laws. Action against the errant is therefore, far from reality.
But on the matrix of reality, when the Supreme Court has given them a carte blanche to �fill up their approved intakes as per option exercised by them�, why have they decided to share 50% of their seats with the Government? It is they who can give the answer. But in public perception it is a mutual sharing of the booty.
Though the Private un-aided Technical/ Professional Institutions are, according to the Supreme Court, free to fill up their �approved intake� as they like, none of them can afford a confrontation with the Government officials. They know they are safe as long as Government stands with them. Beginning from approval to affiliation, there are umpteen opportunities for official authorities to harass private college operators. So they, notwithstanding whatever the Supreme Court says, cannot say no to what the officials suggest. They know that they have not invested money in private un-aided colleges for social service. This is a business they operate for profit and the rate of fees as fixed by the Government noted supra cannot give them any profit matching their investment. So collection of extra money from students is the only way to fetch a profit. Unless officials cooperate, this cannot be possible. And for officials, allocating seats to aspirant students, who are not meritorious enough to get admission to Government Colleges, is a sure source of un-noticed income. Saswat Pattanayak, presently in USA, while reporting for the Asian age and later for the Hindustan Times, had exposed the scam resorted to by government officials in blocking seats in private colleges for such students. Corruption has crippled the State so much that notwithstanding the in-depth exposure, this evil game has never been looked into by officials with the terseness it warrants. Hence the game relentlessly goes on. The officials� eagerness to see that 50% of private seats rest under their control is a pointer to this. Had they not succumbed to officials� pressure, the private, that too un-aided, college operators would never have �decided to share� 50% of their seats with the Government, when the Supreme court has given them the clearance to freely fill up all the seats of their respective colleges as per their own option.
It is common knowledge that mafia excels in coining words to transmit an intension, which is in fact opposite to his own, so that under a cover of public praise he can proceed towards his prey. Such a cover has been provided for in the guise of 15% reservation for the NRI children. Outwardly it looks very nice. One sees in it our Government�s benevolent concern for our own people staying away from the motherland. But in reality, it is a gift given by government to private colleges. Indians residing in foreign countries normally do not send their children to study in private colleges in a place like Orissa. So the seats reserved for the NRIs remain vacant. These vacant seats are usually, off the records, auctioned away to undeserving aspirants, thereby, generating unnoticeable income of about seventy crore of Rupees.
So it is a massive mechanism of scam that has engulfed technical education in Orissa. And in this scam, beginning from private college operators to BPUT to the Directorate of Technical Education & Training to the Administrative Department to the Chief Secretary to the Chief Minister, all are involved. Otherwise how �just a pass mark in 10+2 science� has been declared as the high-point of merit for entry into engineering and other professional courses?
Grease the palms and get anything done in Orissa.
You know this, I also know.
But I would like to know, how the fellows, who shanghaied our medicals into anarchy a few weeks ago under the claim of protecting �merit� from the shadow of reservation of seats for the socially disadvantaged, react to this open butchering of merit.
Will any of them react?
Your article has exposed a silent scam which is getting repeated every year.
we need to find proper check and balances,No doubt there are good technical colleges in Orissa imparting quality education.They need to be protected from this dangerious trend.
But,This kind of corrupt partenership between two influencial groups of our society putting tremendous pressure on them to fall in line with the corrupt ways.The Govt.;both CENTRAL AND STATE has failed in stopping these kind of Practices in tech. colleges.
Its time that 'CIVIL Societies'take up the cause and fight this Evil Practice which degrades the tecnical education sector in our country.

Following a hiatus of nearly two years, the latest Furanum offering signals the return of solo work from label owner Dominik Muller and coincides with a pivotal tenth release on the label. The Embodiment of Brute Propulsion most notably features for the first time on vinyl robust reconstructions of two the artist's most seminal compositions. Both previously released on UK's Locked Records, 'Eintrachthutte' (2007) and 'Silesian Boy' (2009) have served as stepping stones for the artist's evolving musical vision and represent a raw reflection of the influential period spent immersed in his industrial homeland of Upper Silesia. Audibly modernized and now endowed with a substantially augmented lower end, the two capably maintain the feel and imagery of the originals: the former the impressions of a visit to an iconic location bearing the same name, and the latter a personal exploration of identity in the context of youth. Also given the wax treatment for the first time is 'Blank,' a previously unreleased piece that has been a mainstay of live performances in various forms since 2011. Defined by a recurring and ineluctable pattern, both intrusive yet irresistible, its orphic narrative is subtly driven forward by a series of drones that weave their way around a dense rhythmical panorama. Lastly, the repertoire is complemented by a vinyl-exclusive personal capture of an industrial press shop in operation. Seemingly bare, inanimate, and inexorably bound to its predeterminate cycle of motion, the mechanized landscape stands as a symbolic archetype of the aesthetic ambitions of the label.
Mastered at Berlin's D&M by CGB, Fu010 will be available on 12″ as well as in digital format at all fine music retailers.

Picture this: The NYPD Friday debuted a coffee table photo book about itself.
More than 100 pictures are featured in "NYPD: Behind the scenes with the men and women of the New York City Police Department," by photographer Mark Condren. Brief descriptions accompany each photo.
The book's cover shows two officers, one female, one male, responding to a job in the dead of night in East New York, Brooklyn. Other photos, such as warrant cops peering under an apartment door, show officers taking police action, but many others depict them interacting with everyday New Yorkers, from two kids sitting on a parked car to two guys working behind a pizzeria counter.
"I think what I like most about these photos is that it captures such a wide array of the many, many functions of the NYPD," Police Commissioner James O'Neill said. "So much of it might seem routine to us in that moment, because in that instance it's sometimes difficult to recognize the gravity of a singular situation.
"It made me realize what a positive, lasting effect a simple interaction with a young person might have," O'Neill added.
Some of the proceeds from the book — the cover price is $49.99 — will go to the Police Foundation, the nonprofit group that funds various NYPD initiatives, such as buying bullet-resistant vests and paying some of the costs for officers stationed overseas as part of the department's counterterrorism program.
The book is for sale on the Police Foundation's website.

"LET HIM BRING WHAT HE WANTS"
Pena responds to Sayed's comments
Cape Town, South Africa – Bantamweight kingpin Demarte 'The Wolf' Pena is drawing confidence from his championship pedigree heading into tonight's fight with Irshaad 'White Tiger' Sayed in the headline event at EFC 55 in Cape Town.
Pena (11-0) aims to defend his bantamweight strap for a third time at GrandWest Arena, having previously protected the featherweight crown five times before dropping down a division.
In his way stands a bullish Sayed (12-2), who is unbeaten in five bouts in the promotion and picked up the interim belt with an exciting third-round TKO of Cedric Doyle in April.
Sayed has questioned Pena's ability to finish opponents, dismissing his fighting style as "laying and praying".
'The Wolf', however, insists his perfect record is no accident.
"There are a few things he did on social media that he said, that got me really upset," said Pena, who also defeated Doyle in his last appearance in the Hexagon in July, 2015.
"But at the end of the day I've done this many times and I've won two titles, defended it seven times combined. I know I'm definitely gonna beat him so he shouldn't be surprised after that happens."
The Angolan added: "It's no luck being a two-division champion, there is no luck in that. There is no luck in defending the featherweight title five times, bamtamweight twice, and now the third time. My success isn't because of luck and I lay or pray or whatever. Just because I put in so much work, that's why I believe I'm gonna win again. He can say what he wants, at the end of the day I know I'm a better MMA athlete than he is."
Pena maintains staying at the top is a different animal to making a run at the title.
"I'm probably the only guy here that has defended the title seven times here. It's different fighting average guys, say if you fight an Oumpie [Sebeko] or whoever. It's different when defending the title and you've fought so many times. It's different to stay winning.
"If I was a contender fighting to become a champion, I would try and put out great shows and whatever. But when you are a champion for long time it is hard and no one understands that. That's the biggest thing, if he brings it I will just bring it one step more. You saw with Wesley [Hawkey], he brought everything and look what happened afterwards. Let him bring what he wants. If he wants to coast he's gonna definitely lose the fight. If he wants to come hard, he's gonna gas and I'm gonna beat him."

On happiness and what it means to be a hero – an Interview with Leon Chiro
No stranger to the international cosplay community due to his massive scale of collaborations with leading video game companies, Leon Chiro's portfolio of collaborations include Ubisoft, Square Enix, Capcom, 20th Century Fox, Riot Games and the likes. In town for the Singapore Toy, Game & Comic Convention (STGCC), our writer speaks to the Italian cosplayer on being heroes, and the importance of happiness.
PS This article will contain sound clips from the interview because of reasons.
PPS Because it needs to be said, and my editor did give me suspicious looks when Leon and I walked out of the interview room. Yes, Kenneth, I got Leon to take his clothes off.
I am the line between professionalism and sexy back muscles
Nice to meet you! Thank you so much for having me here. It's awesome being here with you.
I am so glad you got your luggage back.
Thank you. Well, you know what? I had it at midnight. Just in time.
How was the con experience so far?
It was very intense. It has only started for an hour, and there are a lot of people in the line already. I have never been to Singapore before. And it's such a big pleasure to be here. Like, I have been travelling in Asia, but I've never been in the South. So it's my first time here and I'm pretty sure it won't be the last time because I am in love with this city. I'm in love with the community. I'm in love with everything in here.
You mentioned you have been to a lot of cons everywhere. How can STGCC top that con experience?
How can you top that? You already did! You're already great, guys. I didn't come here with expectations, you know? And I never go to any place with expectations. I'm just enjoying at the top, at the maximum, any kind of experience I have. In my opinion, every culture is beautiful the way it is. And it's up to you to appreciate and admire everybody's culture. Because we are all different but at the same time, we are all the same. Because we share the same blood, we are standing on the same ground at the same level. What I'm trying to say is that this experience has already changed my life. Even the expectations I didn't have have been exceeded.
What do you look for when you pick a character to cosplay? I notice on your portfolio a lot of video game characters. Most of them are very different. But what connects these characters? What is it about them that speak to you?
Well, 95% of them are video games. Because in my opinion, video games are the most powerful storytelling tool we have today. It's not like a movie. Every time you watch a movie, it's always the same. Every time you play a game, it's always different because it depends on you. It's like, going into the movie and deciding how to watch it and how to play it. When you watch a movie back, you already know what you're going to see: the same exact frame, the same exact positions, the same exact perspectives. But with video games, especially with the new video games, you just decide everything: how to play, the difficulty, and so on. So this is, in my opinion, very important because it's the facets between virtual and reality. Cosplay is also the reincarnation of video games, in my opinion. With video games, you can play the character in a virtual reality and you can do whatever you want in the game. With cosplay, you can play this character in real life, and you can do more than just controlling the character. You can be the character. And this is for me, what cosplay means: Interpretation. Heart. And that is how I choose all my characters. Because they all gave me something; they all gave me some emotion. They all had a very important connection with my life. All of them are kind of linked with each other.
Just to give you an example: I cosplay Dante because I feel like Dante, but at the same time, I have something in common with Tidus. Even though the characters I play are different, they have something in common. They are both cool, somehow. They both want to be stylish. They both want to be important. And they both wanted to be the heroes. You know what I mean? The concept of hero is something that always connected my characters, if you think about it. Like, I cosplay Zack and I will never cosplay Cloud. Because I hate Cloud. And even if Cloud is mainstream, I don't care. Even if Square Enix asked me to cosplay Cloud, I would not cosplay Cloud. Because I'd say, "guys, it's okay. It's okay but for Cloud…" – of course, I will not refuse Square Enix, you know but—I already work for them as Gladio, of course. But the concept of hero is the concept that I'm very attached to. And this concept of hero goes to Gaston, also. Because he's like a villain-hero? In the end, he is the most loved guy in the city, you know. He's somebody who everybody wanted to be like.
https://www.popcultureonline.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/Track-1-Gaston.mp3
Nobody shows off his core muscles mid-interview like Gaston.
He is the hero in his own story.
Exactly. Zack Fair, Tidus, they are all heroes in the end. And now my ultimate cosplay will be, for this November, the Hero of the Heroes. I'm going to make a hell lot of work in that one. It's so mainstream right now but I want to make the best character you have ever seen with this cosplay here. What I'm going to cosplay is…
https://www.popcultureonline.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/Track-2-All-Might.mp3
All Might! Yeah, I'm going to be like 2 meters tall. I'm going to have body suit muscles and many will make the costume with me. I'm not going to make the costume by myself. I'm going to make it with some of the team, with my friends Fiore and Axel. We are going to work on them. Fiore will help me do the lycra. It's going to be high quality lycra. And Axel will help me with the wig. I'm going to make the structure of the wig and he's going to style the wig with me. We are going to do everything together and it's going to be such teamwork.
Now, my colleagues gave me the mission to find out from you any tips on looking good, keeping fit, and generally being awesome.
*At this point, Leon grabbed my sound recorder, so I'm just going to publish the words from the man himself in all its full aural glory.
https://www.popcultureonline.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/Track-3-Fitness-and-Happiness.mp3
I told you I got his clothes/COAT off. And then he turns up on Day 2 of STGCC topless as Kazama Jin.

Sophomore Crystal Dangerfield and incoming freshmen Mikayla Coombs and Megan Walker will get to visit Italy with the University of Connecticut women's basketball team during its tour in August.
They'd also like to make the trip in July for the FIBA U-19 world championships with the United States national team.
Dangerfield, Coombs, and Walker are among 33 players who have accepted invitations to take part in the U-19 trials that will be held May 18-21 at the United States Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Also headed to the trials are UConn Class of 2018 commit Charli Collier and 2018 recruiting target Christyn Williams.
Team USA will go for its seventh straight U-19 gold medal at the tournament to be held July 22-30 in Cividale del Friuli and Udine, Italy. The Americans will be led by University of Pittsburgh coach Suzie McConnell-Serio.
"These athletes represent the top talent our country has to offer at this age level," said Jennifer Rizzotti, the chairperson of the women's junior national team selection committee. "This is a very versatile group that will give the coaching staff a lot of options. They are all tough competitors, and it is not going to be easy for us to pare it down to the final 12-member team. The committee feels we will be able to select from this group a team that will represent the USA well on and off the court."
Included on the 33-player trials roster are nine members of the 2016 U-18 team that qualified Team USA for U-19 world championships by winning gold at the FIBA Americas Championship and four players, including Collier and Williams, who were members of the 2016 U-17 team that won a bronze medal at the FIBA world championships in Spain.
Dangerfield is hoping to become the fifth player in USA Basketball history to win two U-19 gold medals. The others are former UConn All-Americans Breanna Stewart and Morgan Tuck, South Carolina All-American A'ja Wilson, and former Baylor guard Alexis Jones.
The 5-foot-6 point guard from Murfreesboro, Tennessee, was named to the U-18 team a year ago but was forced to withdraw with a hip injury that required surgery. She averaged 6.4 points and 2.7 assists in the 2015 U-19 world championship in picking up her second gold medal to go with the one she got with the 2013 U-16 team.
In her first year at UConn, she averaged 6.1 points and 3.7 assists and was named to the American Athletic Conference all-freshman team as the Huskies swept the league title and advanced to their 10th consecutive NCAA Final Four. She was ninth in the AAC in assists and sixth in assist-to-turnover ratio.
Coombs, a 5-foot-8 guard from Buford, Georgia, attended the U-17 trials at USOTC a year ago. She led Wesleyan School to the Georgia Class 1A Private School state title as a senior by averaging 16.9 points, 7.1 rebounds, 4.5 assists, and 4.1 steals per game. She took part in the McDonald's All-America Game and the Jordan Brand Classic and was her state's Gatorade Player of the Year.
Walker, a 6-foot-1 wing from Chesterfield, Virginia, swept almost all national Player of the Year honors including the Gatorade Player of the Year, the WBCA Player of the Year, and the Naismith Trophy. She also took part in the McDonald's All-America Game and the Jordan Brand Classic as she averaged 25.9 points, 7.6 rebounds and 3.2 steals in leading Monacan High to a perfect season. In the Class 4A state tournament title game against Kings Fork, Walker capped a 35-point, 11-rebound performance by hitting a jumper with 15 seconds left to give Monacan a 60-59 win.
She averaged 9.6 points and 2.8 rebounds in 20.6 minutes with the U-18 team a year ago. Walker also owns a silver medal from the 2016 FIBA 3x3 U-18 World Cup.
Collier, a 6-foot-4 forward from Baytown, Texas, committed to UConn last fall. She led Barbers Hill High to a 33-5 record and the Class 5A state tournament semifinals as a junior by averaging 23.6 points, 10.2 rebounds, and 3.0 blocked shots per game. She was a consensus All-State selection. With the U-17 team a year ago, she averaged 5.7 points and 3.6 rebounds in 7.7 minutes off the bench.
Williams, a 5-foot-11 guard from Little Rock, Arkansas, averaged 26.0 points and 8.8 rebounds as a junior at Central Arkansas Christian School and was named her state's Gatorade Player of the Year for the second straight season. With the U-17 team a year ago, she averaged 11.9 points and 4.0 rebounds in 30.9 minutes per game. She is considering UConn, Baylor, Notre Dame, Tennessee, and UCLA, and said in January while attending the Huskies' game at SMU she would take her official visits in the fall.
Last week, USA Basketball announced that 35 players had accepted invitations to take part in the U-16 national team trials May 25-29 in Colorado Springs.
Leadng the way are UConn Class of 2019 recruiting targets Samantha Brunelle, a 6-foot-2 forward from Ruckersville, Virginia, and Aliyah Boston, a 6-foot-4 center from Worcester, Massachusetts. Brunelle was the youngest player on the 2016 U-17 national team and averaged 2.0 points and 1.0 rebounds in 4.9 minutes per game. Boston, from Worcester Academy, was among the final five cuts for the U-17 team.
Also among the invitees are Class of 2020 guard Myra Gordon, whose older sister, Lexi, is an incoming freshman at UConn, and three players who made unofficial visits to Storrs during the past season -- River Baldwin, Maddie Burke, and Kylee Watson.
The trials also will feature as many as 115 applicant athletes.
"This is the first time we will have a player return to a U-16 trials after having won a U-17 medal and the first time we will have a U-17 finalist returning to U-16 trials," said USA Basketball women's national team director Carol Callan, who is also chairperson of the USA Basketball women's developmental national team committee. "Taking all of that into account, we look forward to seeing the level of competition at trials continue to become stronger as it has done in each of the five events in which we have had applicant athletes alongside invited athletes."
Team USA will compete in the 2017 FIBA Americas U-16 Championship from June 7-11 in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and will be coached by former UConn standout and current Tufts University coach Carla Berube.

Despite having seen the elevation of women at the helm of important affairs, from judges to the Prime Minister House, Pakistan has yet not been able to cease the brutal traditions of the past that define women as nothing more than articles of trade and possession. These traditions range from Karokari [The killing of women in the name of 'honour', existing in the remote villages of Pakistan. Once labeled as a Kari, male family members get the self-authorized justification to kill her and the co-accused Karo to restore family honor] to "Nikah with the Quran" and the customs of child marriages known as Vani and Sawara. This custom is tied to blood feuds among the different tribes and clans where the young girls are forcibly married to the members of different clans in order to resolve the feuds.
In countless rural villages, centuries old customs like Sawara and Vani are the forced marriage of girls to resolve conflicts and feuds generated through murders. These decisions are often made by a jirga or panchayat who are a council of elders from the community who convene an informal court to decide methods for resolving disputes.
Vani' is a Pashto word derived from 'Vanay' which stands for blood. This custom was common in Pashtoon families and was considered an act of goodwill to end often prolonged quarrel or state of enmities.
It is reputed that the custom of Vani, began almost 400 years ago when two 'Pathan' tribes of Mianwali fought a bloody war against each other. During this, around 800 people were murdered and to resolve the rising tension and taut relations between the two tribes, the Nawab of that time called the 'Jirga' who decreed that females from both sides should be given as 'Qisas'. Since then, Vani has become as a social routine in Mianwali and neighboring areas.
In Mianwali, not only adult women but even infant girls are not spared by being frequently handed over to men or slaughtered for the compensation of crimes done by their fathers or brothers. According to this custom female members from the offending male's family are married or handed over to the victim's family as an act of rectification or indemnification.
Giving women as Vani for marriage purposes to the enemy to mollify them is not only against the Universal Declaration of Human Rights but in clear conflict with the teachings of Islam. Islam categorically forbids all marriages made under any kind of compulsion. The Holy Prophet (PBUH) has at many instances dissolved such marriages. These marriages were known as 'Sabaya' in the days of Jahiliya (ignorance).
In a country like ours where the levels of poverty and inflation reach a new high everyday, economic hardship has forced people to revert to such nefarious custom for support and help: selling their young daughters into marriage as a means of earning money or settle debts. Bride prices range from Rs. 80,000 to Rs. 200,000 .These sales are not legal and are not done with the consent of the girl. In some cases the decision is made by one member of the family without consulting any other members.
In March 2004, the Law and Justice Commission came out with a draft amendment to the Pakistan Penal Code seeking to penalize the act of offering or accepting a woman against her free will, or any child in marriage by way of compensation. It estimated that 30 percent of all marriages fall into the category of child marriage.
• The right to education (Article 28).
• The right to be protected from all forms of physical or mental violence, injury or abuse, including sexual abuse.
• The right to educational and vocational information and guidance.
• The right to rest and leisure, and to participate freely in cultural life.
• The right to not be separated from their parents against their will.
In 2009 alone, 895 cases of child marriages were reported from different parts of Pakistan. Statistics also reveal that child marriages are more prevalent in interior Sindh than in other parts of Pakistan.
The Marriage Restraint Act of 1929 and Pakistan Penal Code (articles 310 & 338-E) debar the sale and marriage of underage girls, it is without any speck of doubt, that these traditions will only be curtailed and bridled when they are unequivocal and unambiguously outlawed and made enjoined by implementing stringent measures and meting out rigorous punishment to those who support, practice, endorse or defend it. The judiciary and police can play a pivotal role in this matter with the Judiciary making laws against such customs and ensuring the implementation of those by the police, only then will we be able to dispel this curse of Vani and Sawara and uphold the rights and protection of women who deserve the right to live.

Q: angular: state change looses URL at second click I have 4 states, each representing a different visualization. The first visualization is a map, the second to fourth are pie charts.
The default is the map visualization. I have three icons showing always the other 3 possible visualizations.
Each of the state is actually a nested state. The first state is "root.map", then we have "root.vis1", "root.vis2", and "root.vis3".
When I initially load the default "root.map" visualization, all is fine first. Then I click on an icon, and all works fine, the visualization changes. The URL in the browser becomes "localhost:3000/#/root/vis2" for example. But when I click again, although the visualization correctly changes to the chosen one, I loose the path in the browser, and it becomes "localhost:3000/#".
What could be causing this? I'd like the URL in the browser to always reflect the current URL (so it can be bookmarked or shared).
The state provider config:
$stateProvider
    .state('home', {
      url: "/home",
      templateUrl: "views/home.html",
    })
    .state('root', {
      abstract: true,
      url: "/root",
      cache: false,
      templateUrl: "views/root.html"
    })
    .state('root.map', {
        url: "/map",
        cache: false,
        templateUrl: "views/map.html",
        resolve: {
          //some resolve code
        }
    })
 .state('root.vis1', {
        url: "/vis1",
        cache: false,
        templateUrl: "views/vis.html"
    })
    .state('root.vis2', {
        url: "/vis2",
        cache: false,
        templateUrl: "views/vis.html"
    })
    .state('root.vis3', {
        url: "/vis3",
        cache: false,
        templateUrl: "views/vis.html"
      });
  }

The set_visualization function in the controller:
$scope.set_visualization = function(visualization) {
    $scope.current_vis = visualization;
    $state.transitionTo('root.' + visualization);

Sour Diesel Auto is an automatic cannabis seed that needs no introduction given the fame and reputation of its parents Sour Diesel and Ruderalis. The result is an outstanding marijuana plant that is really easy to grow and that will reward your work with delicious dense buds. It does well both indoors and outdoors without taking up much space.
This auto cannabis hybrid emits a mild, pleasant aroma of citrus fruit and exotic wood. The flavor expresses dominant notes of Diesel and sour fruit. Despite its Ruderalis content, the Sativa side dominates, providing a cerebral, clear, powerful, long-lasting effect. Cannabis connoisseurs will certainly know how to appreciate this American cannabis seed.
Always fun to grow! Humboldt does genetics proper! i love all of these strains! Sour Diesel was stinky and beautiful after only 100 days from seed!
I made mistake when seeding it so only 1/3 got flowered. But the plant is so nice, buds are really hard & heavy and it flowered as predicted. This seed bank is the best I tried. By far. Plant stayed very low so be careful for mist it can probably get some problems if not cured with respect to low profile and very compact structure. Definitely will try again and will order more seeds of this for my balcony places because the one I got was really small ruderalis stuff. Smell is very rich and nice, taste good and effect is quite high even for auto and not completely dry buds.
Great Strain Compared to other Auto Diesels.
4 of 5 seeds from pack made it.Personally during first grow with multiple strains i have found this one to be most responsive for any training and paid back with fantastic rapid growth. Highly recommended strain.
Just arrived one of this strain, 5 tale. It comes in a very well crafted little piece of wood with quality engrave on it. First class packing if U ask me. So when it grown up i will write one testreview of the final result of taste/plant lifecycle/and so on. At the very latest in aug or sep. Happy plant grow for everyone.
Nice website, fast and discreet shipping and great customer service through emails, so feel free to ask these guys anything! And when it comes to the strain itself, again very pleased with the outcome. Nice plant with great buds that fill up most of the stem by the time it reaches it's end. Great smell and lots of resin, so really can't complain.

Riverlink Seeks to "Name That Creek" in Kenilworth
River Link August 30, 2016	Outdoors, Press Release
RiverLink seeks to "Name That Creek" in the Kenilworth neighborhood
With the help of the City of Asheville and the Kenilworth Residents' Association (KRA), RiverLink's Name That Creek program is set to name a new stream. This one flows through the Kenilworth neighborhood, which is located between downtown Asheville, Biltmore Village and the Biltmore Estate.
Name That Creek is a long-time project whereby RiverLink asks local neighborhoods to propose names and the Asheville community to then vote for the most fitting name.
The Kenilworth neighborhood is bordered by Tunnel Road on the east, Swannanoa River Road on the south, and Biltmore Avenue on the west, and situated on high land above the Swannanoa River. Touted as Asheville's "pioneer suburb," Kenilworth was founded in 1914, born a town before it was annexed by the City of Asheville in 1929. The stream up for naming flows southward along Norfolk Street, and continues under Wyoming Road and Kenilworth Park.
The KRA is committed to enhancing the quality, safety, and beauty of the neighborhood. Informal discussion about the stream-naming among volunteers working on a litter cleanup project this spring led to an agenda item on the KRA board meeting. The concept was met with approval among board members and an investigation of how this might be done resulted. Three proposed names were approved by consensus in a June, 2016 board meeting.
Three names were suggested by the residents, and can be voted on by visiting http://riverlink.org/help-us-name-creek-kenilworth. The candidates are:
Louise Gibson Creek: The Gibson family lived and farmed for many years on the land where the stream begins. Louise Gibson was born in 1928 in what is now part of the Kenilworth community. She and her husband George lived on the south slope of Beaucatcher Mountain where they farmed, tended chickens and cows, and raised their family of five.
Beaucatcher Branch: Beaucatcher Mounatin, just north of the neighborhood, is a very prominent landmark in Asheville providing outstanding views both to the east and to the west. Beaucatcher Mountain bears a tunnel through the mountain (1927) to Asheville. Next, a significant cut was created (1980) to allow Interstate 240 to pass through and easy access to roadways both east and west resulted.
Norfolk Run: This stream, also known as a run (from the word runnel: small stream) borders the quiet Kenilworth street named Norfolk. There are only six residences on Norfolk Street and naming this quiet waterway for it will help establish the name of Norfolk in this old neighborhood. It was possibly named Norfolk for the county in East Anglia (England) and is in keeping with the English theme of Kenilworth in its founding early in the 20th century.
After a name is chosen, Asheville City Council would vote to have it submitted to the United States Geological Survey Board of Geographical Names. If approved, it eventually would become the official name for the creek. Since the project's inception, RiverLink has sponsored four successful creek name changes with the help of community volunteers:
Buttermilk Creek, a tributary of Hominy Creek in West Asheville;
Big Branch, a tributary of Reems Creek in Weaverville;
Penland Creek, which runs through the New Belgium Brewery; and
Fox Creek, a tributary of Smith Mill Creek in West Asheville.

Watch – Mayor Bill De Blasio Grilled by New Yorkers on Rising Crime: 'We Don't Feel Safe!'
John Binder
New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio was grilled by New Yorkers who said they are fed up with the rising crime rate in the city, blaming his policies of neighborhood jails, homeless shelters in communities, and the state's new abolishment of bail for criminals deemed "non-violent."
During a town hall in Forest Hills, Queens — a community that's been inundated with de Blasio's community warehouse homeless shelters and neighborhood jails — voters slammed de Blasio for what they described as his ignoring the will and safety of working- and middle-class New Yorkers.
A lifelong resident of New York got cheers from other attendees as he called de Blasio the worst mayor ever in the city's history while blasting the mayor's office for what he said was racism against Asian Americans in the school system:
Let me just tell you this. I'm 56-years-old, lived in this city my whole life, and you are the worst mayor that New York City has ever seen. [Emphasis added]
One resident begged de Blasio to work with state lawmakers to get rid of Gov. Andrew Cuomo's (D) new bail reform law that abolishes bail for criminals like those accused of second-degree manslaughter, aggravated vehicular assault, third-degree assault, promoting an obscene sexual performance by a child, criminally negligent homicide, or aggravated vehicular homicide.
"Many people are being beaten, slashed, and hurt by criminals being released," the resident told de Blasio. "They said they would only release people that are non-violent but they're releasing people who are very, very violent. The other day, a Japanese tourist was slashed, and the man who slashed him had slashed someone, a deli worker, and he had pummeled a woman in his apartment building."
"New York City is becoming a crime city. Could you please get rid of bail reform to make our city safer?" the woman asked.
De Blasio dismissed citizens concerned with increasing crime rates as those who are "not interested in the facts" and who "are whipping up fear."
"There are people and organizations in this city that are trying to tell you New York City is not safe, that are trying to tell you we are declining and we're going back to the '70s," de Blasio said. "Listen, listen if you believe that, God bless you. Then that means you're not interested in the facts."
The resident, though, hit back:
If a judge feels that someone is a danger to society, regardless of the new bail reform … I don't think that person should be released. I think a bank robber shouldn't have to rob five banks before they decide … if you slash someone, if you throw a kid to the floor, that person should go to jail. Forget bail reform. Bail reform is not working. Do you understand? [Emphasis added]
"A lot of people are whipping up fear," de Blasio said as residents shouted, "It's all coming back," referring to the city's crime waves that spanned across the 1970s to the late 1990s.
"It is not all coming back. … Anyone who believes it's all coming back, if you believe it's all coming back then you do not understand the NYPD," de Blasio said. "You do not understand the NYPD. It's as simple as that."
Another resident scolded de Blasio for his plans to close Rikers Island — the region where the city's most violent criminals are locked up — and move inmates to neighborhood jails:
I have lived in Queens my whole life … Mr. Mayor, I do not feel safe. I'm telling you as a member who lives here. I don't have the security detail, I don't carry a gun, I don't do anything. I wake up at 5 a.m., I go to work six days a week to pay the taxes for this city. The fact is Mr. Mayor, people are leaving New York — they're not coming in. They're leaving New York. And I'll tell you why I think for the first time I went on the Internet and am looking for other alternative residence because this borough-based jail. I don't want this borough-based jail. [Emphasis added]
I think you have no clue what goes on in regular people's lives. If Rikers is broken, you guys get paid big money, fix Rikers. But to have a borough-based jail in Forest Hills to me is not the solution. Why don't I feel safe Mr. Mayor? I see police officers getting dumped with water and unfortunately they have to walk away. They don't do anything about it. They walk away. I see police officers get shot. That is my point Mr. Mayor. My point is that we don't feel safe. … The borough-based jails are not the answer. That's my statement, not a question. [Emphasis added]
In response, de Blasio accused the resident of listening to "right-wing propaganda."
De Blasio was also pressed about his homeless shelter initiative, where he has placed warehouses and hotels full of hundreds of homeless people in residential communities where families live.
A lifelong New Yorker who is the daughter of immigrants called de Blasio's community homeless shelters a "disgusting" attack on working- and middle-class residents, saying she no longer feels safe where she lives.
"I am a granddaughter of immigrants, and I am a daughter of immigrants who came here, and my grandfather bought one of the first houses by working very hard in like 1938. … It is just disgusting that you have shoved a homeless shelter for 200 men in the neighborhood that my grandparents developed and grew up, and where I've grown up," the resident said.
"There are 200 men, not from our community, because we keep hearing, 'Oh, they're from your community.' They're not from our community," she continued. "… It is disgusting because now I don't feel safe here anymore. Now I have to buy more locks for my doors and a security system because you're not trying to help these men. … You're warehousing them, and we are very aware of the fact that what they're getting per head, someone is making the money on it. … It's just disgusting that you have done this to our community."
The heated town hall came as crime in New York City has risen, as noted by the New York City Police Benevolent Association, since the beginning of the year when the bail reform law was implemented. Compared to this time last year, crimes such as rape, robbery, grand larceny, burglary, and grand larceny auto are all up.
Meanwhile, New York's population has continued to fall. From 2018 to 2019, New York saw the largest statewide population decline in the United States with nearly 77,000 residents fleeing, as Breitbart News reported.
