Храм Матидии () ― ныне утраченное древнеримское культовое сооружение, посвящённое обожествленной августе Салонине Матидии, тёще императора Адриана.

Матидия была племянницей императора Траяна, который относился к ней, как к своей собственной дочери. Когда ее мать Ульпия Марциана умерла ок. 112 года, Матидия приняла агномен «августа». Её дочь Вибия Сабина вышла в 100 году замуж за императора Адриана. Адриан особенно любил свою тёщу и обожествил её в 119 году после её кончины. Сразу после этого началось строительство храма, посвящённого ей.

Храм Матидии стоял на Марсовом поле рядом с Пантеоном, восстановленным Адрианом. Точное местоположение храма было определено после того, как в фундаменте Сант-Иньянцо был найден свинцовый водопровод с надписью Templo matidiae. После своей смерти Адриана тоже был обожествлен и получил свой храм рядом с храмом Матидии.

Храм Матидии был изображён на монете с текстом Divae Matidiae socrui, который Адриан отчеканил в 120 году. На ней он представлен как небольшой храм, окруженного колоннадой. В храме находится коронованная фигура и статуя по обе стороны фасада. Изображения на монетах, однако, известны как схематические, а не реалистичные, но считается, что храм действительно был внутри большого портика.

Beauty Cat Castle: Haul - Who cares why?
Haul - Who cares why?
So over the past few days I've acquired a few things, mostly for the purpose of this blog and to try out something a bit different and outside my comfort zone. Specifically a different makeup remover, dark or bright lipsticks and brown eyeliners as opposed to my usual black. Also my Illamasqua blush finally arrived!
A little haulin' is always good retail therapy :) The Illamasqua blush and Kate Moss lipsticks would probably be the items that excite me the most, though I also want to try more LUSH products.
Review MAC Star Violet Eyeshadow!!!

Sugar 'n Spice is a fun 2 pack of slightly padded cotton bras. It's actually from Royce's Missy range of teen bras but we thought it didn't look too little girly and as it's so difficult to find non wired cotton bras in an AA we thought it was definitely worth having! Shame it doesn't go up to a 38!
It does come in a B cup, we find though that these ladies prefer wires but we're more than happy to order one in for you if you'd like one! Just email us and we'll happily do that for you.
See below for similar bras.
NB The photo of the pink bra in actual fact has white wings and not pink wings. This is the image they supplied and have obviously changed the design slightly between the photo and production.

Steven Tyler Books Solo Country Tour

Steven Tyler is hitting the road for his long-awaited solo tour. The Aerosmith frontman has announced his Out on a Limb Tour, which will feature backing band Loving Mary.
The 19-city tour will feature Tyler in an intimate concert setting where he'll put a new spin on classic Aerosmith songs and tell the stories behind them, as well as debut songs off his forthcoming country project.
"What would I not pay to go see [Paul] McCartney, but instead of playing with whoever he's with now, actually do [a show] where he tells you what he was thinking when he wrote "Yesterday"?" Tyler tells USA Today. "That's what I'm doing. I figured I'd talk about 'Sweet Emotion' and 'Dream On' and where I was when I wrote it, and 'Seasons of Wither' and how I played it."
Tyler says he's looking forward to playing with Nashville-based Loving Mary.
"It really is beautiful getting out there and singing with a band, where I can look at all the guys and go, 'Stop playing right now' and we'll just sing a cappella," he explains. "I've never been in a band like that, so it's a whole new thing for me."
While he fully admits he doesn't expect his solo career to "hit like the Beatles or be the second coming of Aerosmith," he says it was important for him to follow his muse.
"I'm such a passionate person that if I don't go after my muse like that, I'll wind up on drugs again," Tyler confesses. "I'll wind up arguing with people and just no good."
While on the road, Tyler will make a stop in Detroit Lakes, Minn. to take the stage at WE Fest 2016.

If you are looking for a professional bio you should probably go here. If you are looking for absolutely random anecdotal information, welcome.
Michele Scotto Trani was born and raised in Brooklyn, NY, and currently resides in Fairfield County, CT, with her teeny tiny puppy Chewbacca (aka Chewie, brother of Rufus Elton Lacicata) and her husband who she has transplanted from Long Island, NY. She is newly wed to a kind, funny, and exceedingly handsome fellow named D.U.G. and is, gratefully, no longer planning a wedding, but is wandering among a gazillion moving boxes and is eager to take on the design of a new space.
She loves: taking photos, making lists, making anything with her hands, dancing, design, home improvement projects and power tools, abandoned buildings, extra-dirty martinis, champagne, having great clothes but not shopping for them, hanging out with friends and family but not talking to them on the phone, knitting, gnomes, post-it notes, her dvr, and carbohydrates.
And she hates talking about herself in the third person.
Here you find her today. Camera in hand. Ready to take your picture. Or a picture of your dog. Or your baby. Or more likely, and possibly preferably, a picture of your couch (or that factory you abandoned a few decades ago).

King has a history of making of making controversial claims on social media.
Late last year, King received widespread criticism for saying diversity is not America's strength.
Earlier this summer, King also prompted backlash for retweeting a message from Mark Collett, the former chairman of the youth division of the British National Party (BNP).
At the time, he said his retweeting of the prominent far-right British activist who has described himself as a "Nazi sympathizer" was "unintentional," but wouldn't say he was sorry for sharing the tweet.

Never too late to graduate for blind student
Paul Patteson with his guide dog Zac
Business student Paul Patteson was surprised at the response when he inquired at Charles Darwin University about finishing off his Masters of Business Administration degree.
He had left the course 10 years ago with about 90 per cent of the study program completed, with only a dissertation to be written up.
So it came as a pleasant surprise to be told that because the course requirements had changed over the years, he had done enough work to complete the Masters degree. His degree would be awarded in October at the final graduation ceremony for 2006.
Unfortunately, the news of his graduation reached him too late to attend. Mr Patteson had flown to Adelaide for family reasons and did not return to Darwin until after the ceremony.
Disappointed at missing out on the ceremony, Mr Patteson contacted CDU, which readily arranged for him to don his gown and mortar board for a ceremonial portrait in the campus photography studio at Casuarina.
What makes Mr Patteson's graduation with a Masters degree remarkable is not the length of time between finishing the degree and getting his degree bestowed, but the fact that he is blind.
He suffers from a rare eye disease called choroidaremia, in which the blood cells in the retina are gradually starved of oxygen.
His genetic inheritance became apparent as a teenager, although he was able to complete his schooling and go on to an undergraduate degree from the Capricornia Institute of Technology (now the University of Central Queensland).
Despite his steadily deteriorating sight, Mr Patteson entered the computer industry as a consultant, coming to Darwin to work on government projects.
In 1992 he decided to improve his career prospects by entering the Masters of Business Administration at CDU.
'I initially enrolled in the course fulltime, but found that with a family of four children to support it was too difficult to be both a student and a father,' he says.
He reduced his studies to part-time but by 1995 had almost completed the Masters degree.
It was at that time that the government changed its rules on contracting out computer work and Mr Patteson found that his work as a private contractor began to shrink.
'I decided to put the lessons I had learnt in the MBA course into practice, and began to run a poultry food franchise in Palmerston,' he says.
But the business venture coincided with a more marked deterioration in his eyesight, and he found himself struggling to survive. He was eventually forced to sell out of the business.
He returned to computer consultancy work in Adelaide, working on Y2K projects as the world ticked over towards the Millennium.
After the breakdown of his marriage, Mr Patteson returned to Darwin, where he now raises funds for several blind-related charities – in the constant company of his guide dog Zac, who has been with him for seven years.
Mr Patteson has 0.05 per cent vision, which enables him to distinguish certain shapes and light sources, but he says doctors have warned him that he will eventually go completely blind.
Nevertheless, he is optimistic that he will find a job in which his blindness is no barrier to progress, and that he will be able to put his business skills learnt through experience and study to good use.

<thead is a table-cell and as per CSS its display:table-cell and

Inter-Hall Recreational Games move online: Hall teams gear up for virtual shift
Aditi Bharade December 15, 2020 December 15, 2020
As a contingency measure amid the pandemic, IHRG will be held Dec 19 to Jan 10 using online platforms. Other games that need to be played in person are cancelled
Participating teams must be physically present in an allocated room at the Arc with an umpire to ensure fair play
The shift online poses new challenges in training for Hall teams, while captains of cancelled games worry that the lack of competitions might affect next year's intake for IHRG teams

As this year's Inter-Hall Recreational Games (IHRG) move online due to the Covid-19 pandemic, team captains and veteran players said the virtual environment poses new challenges for them, and some raised doubts on whether their teams can fully adapt to the changes.
While three games — carrom, darts and snooker — were cancelled this year, the rest of the annual competition will still be played online from Dec 19 to Jan 10, announced the Joint Hall Recreational Committee in a statement on Monday (Dec 14).
The announcement arrives after it was declared in late November that the 2020 Inter-Hall Games for sports would be cancelled entirely for the first time in NTU history.
However, Soapbox understands that despite IHRG moving online, participating players must be physically present at the Arc in North Spine. There, each team will be given their own room, where an umpire will be present to ensure fair play.
Some tournaments will use online platforms specifically designed for their respective games, such as Woogles for Scrabble and Bridge Base Online for contract bridge, while others will be held on Zoom or Discord.
Unlike previous years when IHRG was held physically, the games will be conducted virtually for the first time in NTU history.
Seetoh Wei Song, a second-year student and captain of Tamarind Hall's Chinese chess team, was worried that his team might not be able to play at their usual standard while competing online.
"Sitting face-to-face can allow for more information-reading and prediction of the opponent's moves based on their facial expression and body language," said Wei Song, 22.
The Biomedical Sciences student added that he hopes his players will still enjoy the event and learn from it, although they will interact less with their opponents.
Hall 14 senior Scrabble player Jansen Lawrence Chan, 24, said he feels unprepared for the Scrabble tournament as he still has not tried the online platform selected for the competition.
"For Scrabble, we are used to being able to rearrange our tiles on our rack physically to see the words better. But online, you have to click and drag the tiles one by one. It feels different, but we'll just have to adapt to it first," said the fourth-year Electrical and Electronic Engineering student, who previously captained Hall 14's Scrabble team for three years.
He said his team will soon shift training from the board to the computer to get used to the software and the new competition format.
"I think part of the IHRG experience is the social aspect as well, so it won't be as fun this year in that sense," Jansen added.
Hall 14's contract bridge captain, Chan Tong Ling, a second-year Biological Sciences student, said that the change to playing online will be challenging for her team, which has never played virtually prior to this.
"We are also not used to playing online and seeing the cards on screen, so that may be a challenge. Being able to touch and hold the cards will greatly be missed," said Tong Ling, 20.
On the other hand, Ng Wei Kang, a senior player from Hall 7's contract bridge team, said that playing the game online could provide a more relaxed environment for his team.
"Shifting the games online won't really affect my performance. In fact, it may even help because the atmosphere is more relaxed," the 23-year-old said.
Snooker, darts and carrom were cancelled by organisers, who said the three games could not be converted for online platforms.
Virtual games as a contingency plan
According to the planning committee's statement, organisers had originally considered holding the games virtually as a contingency plan while waiting for safe distancing guidelines from the Student Affairs Office (SAO).
The committee wrote that it decided to move the games online after realising that if it were to follow SAO's guidelines, a single physical tournament for one recreational game would take 10 days and three separate function halls at minimum.
"Timeline-wise, this would imply that IHRG could potentially drag until mid-February 2021," wrote the committee, adding that its decision was also influenced by the likelihood of player fatigue and the high cost of hiring chief umpires for an extended period.
Hall 9's carrom vice-captain, second-year Communication Studies student Siew Ming Li, welcomed the cancellation of the carrom competition this year, as Covid-19 safe distancing rules had prevented her team from practising regularly.
"Honestly I was a little relieved (that IHRG for carrom was cancelled), because with Covid restrictions, our training was affected. We couldn't hold training as often and for as long, and fewer people were allowed to attend," said Ming Li, 20.
But Ming Li said she is concerned that the lack of inter-hall competitions might affect next year's intake for Hall 9's carrom team.
"Hall 9 was carrom champion three years in a row until last year, when we placed runner-up, so it's always been quite a niche in our hall and many freshmen are attracted to it based on what seniors tell them of the previous years' IHRG experiences," she said.

Asia is the world's largest continent and probably one of the most misunderstood. Since the beginning of civilization Asia has been regarded as the place of mysticism, diverse culture economy and invention. A lot of modern inventions and progress spawned out of this continent and at the same time some of the oldest traditions and practices can be traced here.


Design is all around us. Our daily lives are filled with things that are designed. The houses we live in, the cars or bikes we use to go from A to B, and the computers that we use every day. All these products are designed.
Although people often equate design with appearance, design is much more than that. In Delft, we consider design to be a verb first, and a noun second. Design is a process, as well as a product. Designing is as important as the design. What does designing mean? Designing is about creating value and meaning to people. To us, a product is a means to an end and that end always relates to people. A product is not valuable if it does not offer people the ability to do or experience something that is desirable. And it is meaningless if it does not allow them to do so in a way that is appropriate to the context in which it is bought and used.
Designing is also about innovation and creating new products, and a process for coming up with innovative designs. Because designing is about creating new products, there is never a single right answer at the end of a design project. For a single design problem, there are many possibilities to come up with a design that solves that problem. And there are knowledge, methods and tools that you need to master that process. These methods can be taught, and learned. They expand your capabilities, shape your thinking, and allows you to have more control over complex and uncertain situations that are inherent to design.
Design is also an attitude. A wish to engage with the complexity of a real world problems, an attitude to tolerate uncertainty for extended periods of time, and a motivation to dare to try out new ideas. Design is also about showing as much as telling: visualizing and prototyping a future life that does not yet exist, but can be brought to life.
So when thinking about design, think of it a verb as well as a noun, and as a process that can be taught, learned, and developed.

Keto. Dairy-free. Vegetarian. Tasty. This pie has it all. Plus, it's pretty, like a bouquet of flowers. Make it tonight, and make it your centerpiece—no flowers required!
Mix the sunflower and sesame seeds into a coarse flour in a food processor. Add the rest of the ingredients for the dough and mix until evenly combined. Take the dough out, form it to a ball and flatten it.
Cover in plastic wrap and put in the fridge for 30 minutes or more. Feel free to make the dough ahead of time and freeze it.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Divide the dough evenly into as many pieces as you want servings.
Roll out each piece between two baking sheets or press out directly with oiled fingers into serving-sized baking dishes that are about 5-6 inches (13-15 cm) across. Pre-bake the crust for 5-7 minutes. Remove from oven.
Next, prepare the filling. Mix eggs, mayonnaise and spices well. Peel carrots and slice thinly, lengthwise. Rinse the zucchini (do not peel) and slice thinly, lengthwise.
Roll the slices like flowers and arrange in the pre-baked pie shells. Pour the egg mix over and bake at 350°F (175°C) for about 20-25 minutes, until set and golden brown.
Mix oil, salt, pepper and vinegar into a vinaigrette. Drizzle it over the salad and serve with the pie.
Want one big, beautiful pie? Just increase the time in the oven. The longer baking time may require that you protect the edges of the pie by folding a strip of aluminum foil over them to deflect some of the heat.
If you can tolerate dairy, try this recipe with full-fat crème fraiche or sour cream instead of mayo. Or try half mayo, half crème fraiche.
I made the dough for this recipe last night and put it in the freezer. I am going to make the vegetable pie tonight. How far ahead of time should I take the dough out of the freezer?
Coconut or olive oil in place of butter in the crust will make it truly dairy-free.
Butter is fat , has no irritating lactose.
I made this tonight as a dairy version. I realized pretty quickly that it's basically quiche... I used sour cream and added shredded cheddar.
The crust is a good quiche crust, but the zucchini and mountain of parsley aren't the best as a quiche. I'd make it again, but only with ingredients that I normally use in a quiche.
Correct butter does not have Lactose but it does have Casein and Whey (the two dairy proteins) which is what I have a diagnosed intolerance to along with Gluten. My GI doc says these two intolerances usually are found together, anyway. So I will either sub with Ghee or Coconut Oil. I use Ghee a lot and it has never caused me an issue. I love this site. I am 4 weeks into this keto lifestyle and down 13 pounds and 2" in the waist. I will remain Paleo and just be Keto at the same time now.
Anyone tried freezing these? How'd it go?
Not a fan of this. Very fiddly to make and took forever to cook, because I made one big one.
This was super easy to cook and a resounding success. Loved every mouthful. Wish we could put photos here as it was too pretty not to share 😍 I am not even a good cook, hate spending too much time in the kitchen but this was so quick and easy I didn't grumble at all.
There is no cheese in this dish but I added some to mine. You could possibly substitute with nutritional yeast to add a cheesy flavour.
It's not dairy free if there is butter in it.

Mulgrew Miller
from Greenwood, MS
August 13, 1955 - May 29, 2013 (age 57)
An immensely gifted pianist steeped in the jazz and gospel traditions, Mulgrew Miller had a boldly rhythmic, harmonically rich style that drew from players like Oscar Peterson, McCoy Tyner, and Bud Powell. Miller came into his own as a member of both Woody Shaw's band and Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers in the early '80s, before issuing his own highly regarded trio and small group albums, like 1985's Keys to the City, 1987's Wingspan, and 1994's With Our Own Eyes. All the while, he continued to find himself in demand as a sideman, playing with artists such as Branford Marsalis, Freddie Hubbard, Bobby Hutcherson, Wallace Roney, Tony Williams, and Kenny Garrett. Along with performing, he garnered respect as an educator, holding the position of Director of Jazz Studies at William Paterson University. His only solo piano album, Solo, arrived in 2010, just three years before he died tragically from a stroke. Miller remains one of the most beloved and highly regarded pianists of his generation, a sentiment buoyed by such posthumous archival releases as 2019's The Art of the Duo with Kenny Barron and 2021's In Harmony with Roy Hargrove.
Miller was born in 1955 in Greenwood, Mississippi, where he started to play piano by ear at age six. He began taking piano lessons and excelled, eventually performing at dances and playing gospel music at church. Early on, he gained inspiration from Ramsey Lewis. However, by his teens he was studying the music of Oscar Peterson, along other players like Art Tatum and Erroll Garner. He also began leading his own trio, performing at local functions. After high school, he enrolled at Memphis State University, attending on a band scholarship that found him playing euphonium. However, it was while at school that he met pianists Donald Brown and James Williams, who further encouraged his development, introducing him to the music of players like Bud Powell, Wynton Kelly, and McCoy Tyner. He also met trumpeter Woody Shaw, with whom he would later perform.
Following his university years, Miller spent time in Boston studying privately with Madame Margaret Chaloff. He also found work, playing with saxophonists Ricky Ford and Bill Pierce, before relocating to Los Angeles. In 1976, he accepted the piano chair in the Mercer Ellington Orchestra, touring with the ensemble for three years.
In 1980, he toured with vocalist Betty Carter and then joined Woody Shaw, with whom he made his recorded debut on 1981's United. There were also dates with Johnny Griffin, Bobby Watson, Terence Blanchard, and others. It was on the recommendation of Blanchard and Donald Harrison that Miller was recruited into Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers, touring and recording with the legendary drummer from 1983 to 1986. Under Blakey's forceful sway, Miller matured as a player, solidifying his reputation as one of the most authoritative pianists of his generation. His contemporaries and elders took notice, and Miller found himself recording throughout the '80s with such luminaries as Branford Marsalis, Bobby Hutcherson, Wallace Roney, Joe Henderson, Benny Golson, Kenny Garrett, Freddie Hubbard, and more.
As a leader, Miller made his solo debut with 1985's Keys to the City on Landmark, a trio album with bassist Ira Coleman and drummer Marvin Smitty Smith. More albums followed on the label, including 1986's Work! with bassist Charnett Moffett and drummer Terri Lynne Carrington, and 1987's Wingspan, a sextet date with Moffett, saxophonist Kenny Garrett, vibraphonist Steve Nelson, and others. He also formed Trio Transition with Reggie Workman and Freddie Waits, recording several albums, including a 1987 session with Oliver Lake. Away from his solo work and after he had parted ways with Blakey, he joined drummer Tony Williams' group, performing with the former Miles Davis alum until the group disbanded in 1993.
In 1992, Miller moved to the Novus label with Hand in Hand, playing in both a quintet and sextet with Kenny Garrett, Christian McBride, Joe Henderson, Eddie Henderson, Steve Nelson, and Lewis Nash. He released several more trio albums with bassist Richie Goods and drummer Karriem Riggins, including 1995's Getting to Know You. He also paired with bassist Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen for 1999's The Duets, drawing inspiration from the 1940s work of Duke Ellington and Jimmy Blanton. The '90s also found him working with a bevy acclaimed performers, including Donald Byrd, Joe Lovano, and Dianne Reeves. He recorded regularly with Wallace Roney, appeared with the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra, and toured with the New York Jazz Giants, an all-star ensemble featuring Jon Faddis, Tom Harrell, Lew Tabackin, Bobby Watson, Ray Drummond, and Carl Allen.
The early 2000s found Miller continuing to lead his group, releasing albums on MaxJazz like 2002's The Sequel and 2004's Live at Yoshi's, Vol. 1. He also recorded with Brian Lynch, Jeremy Pelt, Ron Carter, Cassandra Wilson, and others. Miller moved into education, accepting the position of Director of Jazz Studies at William Paterson University in 2005. Around the same time, Lafayette College awarded him an honorary doctorate in Performing Arts and hosted him as Artist in Residence. He still remained active as a performer, joining Dave Holland's sextet and John Scofield's band. Solo, a solo piano concert Miller gave at the Jazz en Tête festival in Clermont-Ferrand, France in 2000, arrived on Space Time Records in 2010. That same year, Miller suffered a minor stroke. Following a period of recovery he returned to work, performing in Denmark with the Klüvers Big Band, working in a duo with Kenny Barron, and touring Europe with Yusef Lateef and Archie Shepp. Sadly, Miller suffered a second stroke and died in Allentown, Pennsylvania on May 29, 2013; he was 57 years old.
A posthumous album of duo performances with pianist Barron, The Art of the Duo, arrived in 2019. A second duo album, In Harmony, appeared in 2021 and featured Miller in two concerts from 2006 and 2007 with trumpeter Roy Hargrove. ~ Matt Collar, Rovi

Straight from the heart: Review of 'To Become a Whale' by Ben Hobson
Books rarely make me cry. Movies, yes. Talent shows, oh boy, yes (when those contestants get selected, they're so happy! Who could stay unaffected?!). But for some reason, while I may feel some inward emotion when reading, I hardly ever cry. A book has to be powerful to squeeze actual water from me. To Become a Whale is that type of book.
To Become a Whale is the debut novel of Brisbane writer Ben Hobson (published by Allen & Unwin). It's an emotional and mesmerising read – the story of a boy on his way to manhood, fighting his way through loss and a difficult relationship with his father. Part of the story takes place at the old whaling station on Tangalooma Island, and these gritty details are both repellent and engrossing.
The voice of the main character, thirteen-year-old Sam, is so believable that I quickly fell under the spell of this book and was reluctant to put it down. More than that, I began to love Sam himself, and every twist and turn of his fate tugged at my heartstrings.
And yes, I cried.
What I liked most about this book is that it is written for the reader, not for the author. Ben Hobson hasn't used long flowery phrases, he hasn't gone wild with metaphors or wacky similes or descriptive passages. The novel is beautifully written, yes, but always with the reader in mind, never as an indulgent authorial flight of fancy. The story is told in a clear and compelling way.
If you want a riveting read with a profoundly tender heart, To Become a Whale is definitely for you. Just keep the tissues handy.

In Browne v. Artex (May 31, 2018), Ohio's Fifth District Court of Appeals held that a claim that an oil and gas lease expired for lack of production is governed by Ohio's statute of limitation for contract claims—not the state's longer statute of limitations for recovery of possession of real property.
In Browne, the plaintiffs alleged that their oil and gas lease had lapsed for lack of production from 1981-1999. The defendant-lessee asserted that plaintiffs' claims were barred by Ohio's statute of limitations for contract claims in R.C. 2305.06 (which, prior to being amended in September 2012, provided for a 15-year limitations period). Plaintiffs disagreed, contending that the applicable limitations period was 21-years under R.C. 2305.04, relating to the recovery of possession of real property.
The trial court agreed with the lessee and the court of appeals affirmed. Quoting the Supreme Court of Ohio, the court of appeals noted that "courts must look to the actual nature or subject matter of the case, rather than to the form in which the action is pleaded." Here, "[a] review of the complaint reveals the 'actual nature or subject matter of the case' is a dispute over the written terms of the lease agreement," and specifically, the lease's habendum clause. Therefore, the proper limitations period was set by Ohio's statute of limitations for contract claims, the appellate court found.

Hair is and has always been a very important element in a woman's look – and even more so on her wedding day, when everything has to be perfect.
Of course, may have selected the type of wedding hairstyle you want, and you may have even selected the accessories you want to adorn your hair with – but what about the hair color? What should you do about it – and most importantly, what you should definitely, absolutely, totally avoid doing?
Making any kind of 180-degree change. If you're a brunette and you have never been a blonde, this might not be the time to make the change. Even if you do plan everything well ahead of time, making this change will most likely have a pretty harsh effect on your hair. Even more, if you don't like yourself with the new hair color, you will end up wanting to dye it back – and that will add even more stress on your hair.
Dyeing it too many times before the wedding. Once you have decided what you want for the Big Day, talk to your hair colorist and establish a plan that will allow you to reach the perfect hair color without harming the texture and health of your hair. Also, make sure your hair coloring plan allows for plenty of time before the wedding, so that you can apply some treatments to it and make it really shine.
Trying to do it yourself at home. No matter how expensive your drugstore hair dye is and no matter how much experience you have with dyeing your hair on your own, this is not the moment to do it. These things can very easily turn into a full-blown disaster – one that will be expensive to fix (and might not even be completely repairable from the point of view of your hair's health). Invest in the services of a professional hair colorist if you want the results you are aiming for.

Flourishing US-Russia economic ties over political rifts?
by nastiasuquet , May 24, 2013
The U.S and Russia are pursuing economic ties as Moscow finally joins the WTO and political rifts are put aside.
Last year, following eighteen years of harsh negotiations, Russia finally joined the World Trade Organization. A few months after this historic moment, the United States granted "permanent normal trade relations" to the country in repealing the famous Jackson-Vanik amendment – a bill that was created to restrict trade with the Soviet Union during the Cold War, and was continuously applied until now. While this landmark bill could have been a symbol of a greater understanding between the two former Cold War enemies, the growing political tensions between Russia and the US during the past few months raise doubts about reciprocal trade and investment opportunities.
Indeed, the abolishment of the trade restriction bill was linked to the US "Magnitsky Act", which introduced new provisions relating to the respect of human rights in Russia. More precisely, it states that Russian citizens suspected to have played a role in the death of the lawyer Serguei Magnitsky in 2009 would have their US banks assets frozen and visas to the US denied. The Russian authorities promptly responded in adopting the "Guantanamo List", naming Americans supposedly involved in human rights abuses in the infamous prison. They also passed the "Dima Yakovlev" Law, prohibiting adoptions of Russian children by Americans. Therefore, the repeal of the Jackson-Vanik amendment, far from improving relations between Russia and the US, appeared as a source of political tensions between them.
But the Magnitsky case is only one episode among many in a series of political disagreements that have erupted between the two states in the past year. Different views about potential engagement in Syria, the conduct of the Russian government towards NGOs, or the recent capture in Moscow of an alleged CIA agent suspected of trying to recruit an FSB officer, to name a few, have renewed tensions between the US and the Russian Federation. Since February, the Russian authorities also banned imports of American meat, evoking safety standards concerns. Some began to argue that this climate of mistrust could harm Russian-US trade and investment in general.
In a speech to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce last month, the EBRD President talked about the opportunities for US investors in Russia. Sir Suma Chakrabarti claimed, "This is not the easiest of times in the relationship between the United States and Russia. […] The recent history of bilateral relations demonstrates, however, that even when political interaction between Russia and America is troubled, business relations continue to expand." Indeed, contrary to what these political tensions could suggest, trade and investment indicators between the two countries seem good.
The volume of mutual trade has been modest so far between Russia and the US, but economic ties are growing rapidly. According to the US Department of Commerce, the flow of goods accounted to around $40 billion last year. While this represents less than 1% of US annual trade turnover, it is still four times the amount exchanged a decade ago. US exports to Russia increased by 29% between 2011 and 2012, which represents six times the growth rate for total US exports.
These indicators are expected to grow even more now that Russia has become a WTO member and the Jackson-Vanik amendment has been abolished. Many big US companies invest billions of dollars in the Russian market and strike ambitious deals with their local counterparts. For instance, ExxonMobil recently agreed to collaborate with the Russian oil company Rosneft to explore the Arctic and develop offshore oil and gas fields. Other companies, such as Coca-Cola, General Motors, and IBM are also trying to develop their activities in the Russian market.
In order to develop their economic relationships further, the two governments signed an agreement in March creating a framework to promote bilateral trade and investment for the period 2013-2014. The action plan, called "Building a Foundation for Mutual Prosperity", aims to "diversify two-way trade, increase economic growth in key industrial sectors and reduce market-entry hurdles affecting small and medium enterprises", according the US Department of Commerce.
Therefore, chilling US-Russian relations are unlikely to hamper growing reciprocal trade and investment opportunities, and Americans who want to trade or invest in Russia should not worry about the impact of these political rifts. Technically, they had no concrete impact on the general climate for trade and investment in either country. The Russian Federation needs to promote FDI, and the US wants to double its exports by the end of 2014 (compared to 2010 level). The two states need each other to support economic growth and activity, and whatever political disagreement could arise between them, they will strive to maintain good economic relations.
At most, investors should look at these political tensions not as a possible cause, but more as a sign of the difficulty of doing business in Russia today. In particular, the Magnitsky case was a striking example Russia's corruption and weak rule of law. According to Transparency International, Russia is ranked 133rd out of 176 countries in terms of perceptions of corruption. In the end, the biggest obstacle for investment may be located not at the international, but at the domestic level. Domestic issues could be far more harmful to the Russian business climate than any criticism from US leadership.

Papua New Guinea 2021 Public Holidays Announced
Source: Prime Minister of Papua New Guinea (Port Moresby)
Posted: Friday, September 4, 2020
Most recent follow-up news item: July 21, 2021
The Governor-General of Papua New Guinea, Bob Dadae, has released the annual gazetted official list of appointed non-working public holidays in Papua New Guinea for the upcoming calendar year 2021 in the National Gazette of Papua New Guinea No.G583.
The aforementioned announcement of official Papua New Guinea public holidays for the calendar year 2021 as contained in the "PNG National Gazette G583", contains blatant errors in the date of Easter-related PNG public holidays (2019-10-11, 2018-12-19, 2017-10-11, 2016-08-24, 2015-10-01, 2014-08-18, 2014-01-07, 2012-08-25, 2011-08-07, 2010-10-26, 2009-10-08, 2006-10-13, 2003-07-07 and 2000-08-15).
After the usual preamble ("I, Grand. Chief Sir Bob Dadae, GCL, GCMG, K. St. J., Governor-General, by virtue of the powers conferred by Sections 1, 2 and 3 of the Pubiic Holidays Act (Chapter 321) and all other powers me enabling, acting with, and in accordance with, the advice of the National Executive Council, hereby ...") the gazette entry singles-out 3 public holidays for special mention in 2021; first a surprise date for the Queen's Birthday ("appoint Monday, 7th June, 2021 to be the day to commemorate the birthday of the Queen") and then the more perfunctory announcements of the date of National Remembrance Day ("appoint Thursday, 16th September, 2021 to be the day to commemorate the attainment of Independent Sovereign Nationhood") and National Repentance Day ("appoint Friday, 23rd July, 2021 to be the day to Commemorate the PNG Remembrance Day").
Recall that he Remembrance Day public holiday, listed on July 23, had been moved from July 23 to April 25, fifteen years ago (2004-09-20), a move that was meant to be permanent, but which was not well received (2005-10-01).

Q: How to test an existing camel route? I'm trying to test an existing Camel route, but it's proving much more difficult than I anticipated. Most of the documentation that I've seen online seems to create a new route in the test, and then test that. How can I test a route that I have already created?
For simplicity, I have created the simplest route that I can think of, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to use that route in a test.
Here's the route:
@Component
public class TestRouteBuilder extends RouteBuilder{

@Override
public void configure() throws Exception {
    from("direct:testStart")
            .log("Log triggered.")
            .to("direct:testEnd");
}
}

How can I use this route in a test?
I'm using Camel with Spring Boot, so my first thought was to inject the route into the test, but that didn't seem to work.
Any help appreciated, thanks.

A: This can be achieved in multiple ways.. Here is one way:
context.getRouteDefinitions().get(0).adviceWith(context, new AdviceWithRouteBuilder() {
   @Override
   public void configure() throws Exception {
      weaveAddLast().to("mock:result");
   }
});

You can also use CamelTestSupport:
@Override
public String isMockEndpoints() {
   // override this method and return the pattern for which endpoints to mock.
   // use * to indicate all
   return "*";
}

Wellington Paranormal - Review of Episode 6, Series Final
Officers O'Leary and Minogue, and Sgt Maaka - TVNZ publicity image for Wellington Paranormal, dicked around with in Photoshop by me.
"it's Wellington, it's scary"
- Sgt Maaka
The current New Zealand Listener, a long-running magazine aimed at middle-class, left-leaning baby boomers such as me, has a page of readers' letters on TV and Radio - 'Talkback' - in which Wellington Paranormal has come up several times (amid complaints about grammar and pronunciation in the media, and Coronation Street broadcast hours). My rough count of Love It / Hate It letters, until this issue, has been about 50/50, but William Wright's earlier scathing letter prompted three people to write in support of the TV comedy, so the count is now a bit in WP's favour.
My personal leaning is generally in favour, too. I've enjoyed the series, but I don't think it's quite earned its place among the classics of New Zealand TV comedy. Let's see if tonight's episode can help boost WP in that direction. And I'm keen to see if they use the footage* they shot at Inverlochy House, because they haven't so far.
*Footage - a word strangely surviving in a time when moving images are recorded directly to hard drive. 'Megabytage', perhaps?
At the start, in this episode's only bit of suburb-baiting, Khandallah gets another mention, a shooting no less. Earlier this year I witnessed a fist fight between two men in the middle of the road in the Khandallah Village shops, so my leafy suburb is not as tame and boring as it's cracked up to be. Anyway, in the meantime the Police team have taken a suspected zombie into custody, and arresting officers Laupepe and Donovan get the dread disease. So it's all on.
Shortly, in a patrol car on the streets of Wellington:
O'Leary: What about her over there in the black tee shirt?
Minogue: Is she a zombie?
O'Leary: No, she's just a lesbian.
Minogue: You always seem to be able to pick them, O'Leary. I can never tell.
Later - another running gag - O'Leary and Minogue have yet another young Maori woman in the back seat of the patrol car; this time she becomes zombiefied. And it gets better, or worse - whatever your take on all this is. Having the police turn into zombies was a brilliant idea (though one that originated a year ago). But zombies are as much yesterday's thing as ghost hunting and the paranormal in general; we've all had way too much exposure to it on TV and elsewhere, and, inevitably, interest has flagged. So WP has to have a different take - something a bit special - to make it worth the watch. (Old hat: Wellington's Zombie Apocalypse Plan hasn't been updated since 2011.)
Ad break: cue another promo for Sensing Murder. TV2 must think there's an audience overlap here. Maybe there is; SM would be hilarious if it wasn't so f**king tragic.
Back to WP: more hilarity and mayhem, a clever ending, and that's it. No fanfare, and no Inverlochy House, dammit. That scene must've hit the Cutting Room floor.
The episodes are too short (21 minutes 24 seconds, this one) and so is the series. I'm left wanting more. Taika Waititi and Jemaine Clement are probably hoping TVNZ feel the same. They must've had great fun making this series. So, did Wellington Paranormal rate well enough to merit a second series? I hope so, and I guess so do Listener letter-writers Hamish Barwick of Gisbourne, Jan Thorburn of Auckland, Peggy Fittes of Wanganui, and several others. And if there is to be one, as a long serving paranormal investigator based in Wellington, I'm putting my hand up for a cameo.
Thank you O'Leary, Minogue, Maaka and the rest of the cast and crew, and Taika and Jemaine. And TVNZ2 for putting this show on. It's been a blast. And maybe also a boost for interest in the paranormal.
Episode 6 of Wellington Paranormal, and the previous 5 episodes, are available to view on TVNZ2 On Demand.
Wellington Paranormal - Review of Episode 5
TVNZ2 promo image for Wellington Paranormal
Five episodes down, one to go. This is a tough one to review, perhaps made tougher by the fact it's my birthday and the evening's been a tad indulgent.
In the patrol car:
Minogue: [pulls out Taser] You're always saying don't tase stuff. [Accidentally Tasers himself.]
O'Leary: Oh. God, this is the fourth time you've done that.
Nothing like a running gag. Another is Sgt Maaka's fake security upgrades for the paranormal office's secret door. This time it's fingerprint recognition.
So tonight it's vampires, and once again we're in the Hutt Valley - this time Taita. (Cue quiet pun on 'tighter' with the handcuffs when they first arrest the vampire character, Nick - played superbly by Cori Gonzalez-Macuer.) Maybe it's something about the water flowing through and under the broad river valley that somehow concentrates paranormal energy. Or maybe the Hutt's just a bit weird. Whatever, there's a lot of quiet humour in this episode. Like the group of hooded vampires carrying flaming torches, circling their potential victim - a naked man tied to a pole - in the middle of a Lower Hutt park:
Minogue: "What's going on here? You guys having a drink, are ya?
Nick: I guess you could say that.
O'leary: What's with the cloaks?
Nick: It's, um, role playing. Like a Dungeons and Dragons thing.
Minogue: This must be a different version, is it?
Nicki: Yeah, it's the Lower Hutt version.
Then there's Nick's talk to camera, once arrested for the second time, about being discriminated against for being a brown vampire, not a white vampire. See Taika Waititi's "New Zealand is racist as f**k."
But I really don't get the ensuing five-minute interlude with the numerous clowns in the Fiat Bambina. This irrelevant, unfunny scene chewed up a large chunk of an episode that wasn't hanging together too well to begin with, so maybe the time could've been better spent advancing the thin and struggling vampire story. Likewise the haunted plastic bag sequence, which was great but didn't much help the plot. Hell, vampires are native territory for the 'What we do in the shadows' team, so why not make more of it? We had barely a glimpse of Alexandr - see poster above - which was annoying.
Overall, this episode - directed by Jemaine Clement - was even more undercooked than episode 1. Best scenes not already mentioned; the goths in Taita Cemetery (the ghosts/goths confusion) and the momentarily-scary reprise of the haunted plastic bag at the end. This episode was weak and disjointed compared to the last three, each of which showed signs of improvement and promise for the series. So back to square one, guys, like a game of snakes and ladders.
Let's see what next week's episode - the series final - has in store, and if it can lift the game overall with a strong finish. What paranormal theme haven't they done yet? Oh, yes, of course: zombies...
Luke: I don't understand how we got by those troops. I thought we were dead.
Obi-Wan: The Force can have a strong influence on the weak-minded.
Episode 5 of Wellington Paranormal is already available for viewing on TVNZ On Demand - at least if you're in New Zealand. Earlier episodes are possibly available in your home country by now, legitimately or otherwise.

China: When having a child is a poor career move
Merriden Varrall Zixin Wang
'Have you ever thought about the problems Chinese female professionals face in our society before bringing in this policy?'
Photo by Zhang Peng/ Getty Images
Published 30 Jun 2017 Follow @GracWang
In China, one of the most significant challenges many female professionals will face is that getting pregnant could mean losing their job. Even worse, if they dare to speak up and protest, they are likely to be publicly judged and criticised.
On paper at least, China has set up laws and regulations to prohibit gender discrimination in the workplace. Article 42 of China's Labour Law prohibits the unilateral termination of the labour contract of a pregnant or nursing employee. China has also established Special Rules on labour protection for female employees, which emphasise women's rights in the workplace that include 98 days of maternity leave. Employers are also required to make reasonable adjustments to accommodate the needs of pregnant or nursing employees.
Despite or perhaps because of these regulations, having children can still be a terrible career move. Often a pregnancy is often enough to rule a woman out of winning a position she has applied for. There is also a tacit acknowledgement between Chinese employers and employees that a company will not preserve jobs for women on maternity leave. In many Western nations, employees are entitled to come back to the position they had before taking maternity or paternity leave. In China, there is no such guarantee. Sometimes, this means a woman may need to submit her resignation letter with her maternity leave request form.
This reality – and the relevant prevailing public attitudes – were illustrated recently with the news about a woman surnamed Li who told her employer she was pregnant a week after she joined the company. In the subsequent week, Ms Li was demoted from her position. We don't know what the job involved, but according to the company involved, 'her condition' was unsuitable for the work, and she would not be able to carry out her duties because of her pregnancy. Ultimately, Ms Li lost her job. The company's argument for firing Ms Li was that she had made an unacceptable mistake in her work. In response, Ms Li lodged an unfair dismissal complaint to the local Arbitration Commission, which ruled in her favour and ordered the company to continue its contract with Ms Li.
Rather than taking issue with the actions of Ms Li's employer, the overwhelming response from Chinese netizens was to criticize Ms Li for not disclosing her pregnancy during her job interview. The topic '#a woman got fired for lying pregnancy#' quickly became one of the most popular on China's micro-blogging platform Weibo. Many Weibo users think that Ms Li's 'dishonesty' will actually have a detrimental impact on the employment opportunities for other Chinese women in the future. For example, one noted that 'this kind of woman makes it harder for Chinese females to get a job'. This comment received more than 6000 'likes'.
Even though employers are fully aware that it is unlawful to penalise women for having children, many of them would prefer not take the 'risk' of hiring someone who could potentially need to take leave for several months.
As a result, when a Chinese woman goes for an interview, her professional skills are not necessarily as important as her marriage and fertility status. An employer is very likely to ask a female job candidate whether she is married or whether she has any plans to have children. Answers to those questions can be decisive factors in whether she will get the job. This is widely known. And while most on Weibo slammed Ms Li, a few had sympathy for her dilemma. As one Weibo user noted: 'what else can she do other than lie? If she told the truth, it is almost certain that she would not get the job.'
While there are ways for women to seek redress when they have been the victims of discrimination, cultural norms often mean they choose not to do so. One example of these cultural barriers is the Chinese cultural notion of 'miàn zi' (to save face; to protect one's reputation and dignity). In the professional sphere, it is important to 'give' your bosses and colleagues 'face'. Not doing so means you will be considered difficult to work with. For this reason, most prefer to avoid conflict, especially in public. As a result, very few Chinese women would take action against discriminating employers.
In this regard, Ms Li was an exception. And while she won her arbitration case, there is no guarantee of a happy ending. As one netizen commented, 'her employer and colleagues must hate her so much now. Even if she had won the case, I doubt that she could happily work in the company in the future. She may need to resign after all these dramas.'
China is now facing demographic challenges that risk damaging its economic growth and could have potential to lead to social problems in the future. As part of its response to the problems of an ageing population, the government has relaxed its one-child policy and promoted a second-child policy. However, as one angry Chinese mother commented on Weibo in relation to Ms Li's case, 'now [China] wants us to have a second child. Have you ever thought about the problems Chinese female professionals face in our society before bringing in this policy?'
Efforts to outlaw gender bias have done little to chip away at discriminatory practices in China. Add in the difficulties many parents face in finding reliable childcare, and it's clear China needs to do more to address the needs of working parents and, in particular, to protect women's rights in the workplace, before asking them to have more babies.

Q: onClick method not called on Android I am doing the simplest of onClick models and cannot get the onClick method to fire.  I know it is something simple, and I am new to Android.  Any help is appreciated.
package com.bordeloniphone.timeentry;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;

import android.util.Log;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.View.OnClickListener;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.Toast;

public class TimeEntryActivity extends Activity implements OnClickListener{
    /** Called when the activity is first created. */

    Button okButton;
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);

        okButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnOK);
        okButton.setText(":)");
        okButton.setOnClickListener(this);
        //setContentView(okButton);

    }

    public void onClick(View v) {
        Log.d("TEST", "TEST");
        Toast.makeText(this, "TEST", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

    }

}

Here is the main.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical" >

    <Button
        android:id="@+id/btnOK"
        android:layout_width="80dp"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="OK" />

</LinearLayout>

A: After much angst and gnashing of teeth, I figured it out.  I had to delete the emulator device and add an new one and now it works like a champ.   I appreciate everyone trying to help.

A: Instead of setting the onClicklistener to this, try this approach:
okButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
        public void onClick(View v) {
            Log.d("TEST", "TEST");
            Toast.makeText(this, "TEST", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        }
    });

A: You should try Cleaning your project or try to restart your Eclipse or any other Editor you are using as it is a valid code and should work fine.
UPDATE:
Also, you should check your Logcat, are you getting the output of  Log.d("TEST", "TEST"); because your Toast seems to be implemented in a wrong manner.
Toast.makeText(this, "TEST", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show(); // wrong
Toast.makeText(Activity_name.this, "TEST", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show(); // correct

Using this in Toast inside the Listener means you are Referencing the Listener, which indeed should not be the case. You have to reference to the Activity itself so better use Activity_name.this.

A: Button iv_StyleInspiration_Back = (Button) findViewById(R.id.iv_StyleInspiration_Back);
iv_StyleInspiration_Back.setOnClickListener(this);
Try this Whenever you implement onclick in your activity you need to set as above to make it work for all controls and onclick should look something as below
@Override
    public void onClick(View pView) {
        if (null != pView) {
            switch (pView.getId()) {
                case  R.id.iv_StyleInspiration_Back:
                    //do what you want
                                    break;
                default:
                    break;
            }
        }
    }

A: try making the button clickable
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >

<Button
    android:id="@+id/btnOK"
    android:layout_width="80dp"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:text="OK"
    android:clickable="true" />

A: Check for Three Steps:

*

*find the button by id correctly

*link the button to a listener. (adding the actionListener)

*you specify a condition for this button in case of implementing an actionListener class.


On March 26, US-orchestrated/Saudi-led terror-bombing began – supplemented by imported takfiri death squad attacks.
Civilians are prime targets. Obama is systematically destroying Yemen – the way Washington ravaged Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya and Syria.
US strategy is total dirty war without mercy – including deliberately targeting civilian neighborhoods, schools, hospitals, power facilities, refugee camps, food depositories, vital infrastructure and other nonmilitary targets.
Riyadh's so-called 5-day ceasefire (beginning Tuesday) continues being punctuated by terror-bombings and ground attacks.
"We the armed forces, and the popular committees, and Ansarullah, announce our commitment to this ceasefire," Luqman stressed.
Minutes after it began, "acts of aggression after aggression" followed.
"Right now you (can hear) the anti-aircraft firing and the Saudi firing in the sky over the capital (Sanaa) and in all of the provinces," Luqman explained.
On Thursday, a Saudi helicopter gunship struck a truck in northern Yemen, killing nine people.
Riyadh, complicit with Washington, willfully breached ceasefire terms. Ansarullah fighters are blamed for their crimes.
In normal times, Yemenis endure enormous hardships. Now they're catastrophic.
On orders from Washington, Yemen is being terror-bombed to rubble. It's economy is being systematically destroyed.
Saying Yemenis seek alternative ways to survive. They're "(u)sing phone lines to power lamps, paint-thinner to run motorbikes, and donkey carts" for transportation.
Power cuts, food and water shortages, as well as lack of fuel and medical supplies create horrific conditions.
Survival depends on improvising any way possible. "Majed al-Sharjabi, a 42-year-old doctor, had been using petrol to run a generator in his home until the coalition's naval blockade, which prevents fuel ships from docking, sent petrol prices soaring," said MEE.
He switched to propane until its price tripled. He gave up his generator and bought a Chinese-made solar panel.
Ayman al-Dhobhani earns $9 a day transporting people around Sanaa. He can't afford fuel. He uses paint thinner instead.
In the last week, the price of 1.5 liters of paint thinner quadrupled – from $2 to $8.
"Time has toughened us," she said. Life is hard for all Yemenis. Hani Bakhtan can't afford propane.
She uses an improvised stove metal bucket "crammed with sawdust and overlaid with clay." One bottle of sawdust cost $5 and lasts a week, she said.
Aid organizations use donkeys to distribute supplies. National center for freedoms and development manager Salah al-Homaidi said "(w)e're going back a century" – maybe two before Obama's aggression ends.
