How do I know these girls are still available?
If you watch our site closely, you will notice that many beautiful women are added to it every week. But what you might not notice, unless you book marked many ladies' profiles, is that we de-activate 5-25 profiles every week. Every week several of our employees make phone calls to verify the current status of our active members. Our clients and the ladies also contact us almost every day asking to remove them from the site, as they get into serious relationships & we do so with no hesitation.
A group of Phone Introduction interpreters in our Moscow office stay in constant touch with many ladies (especially the most beautiful ones), which assures that our information is always current. If you visit our Moscow office, you can see that process in action. We also stay in touch with the majority of ladies by letter/phone in preparation for our tours. Around two thousand Socials Invitations are sent out in preparation for every tour. All these letters carry our Moscow office return address. If any letters are returned to us undeliverable - the lady is immediately de-activated.
Ladies placed in our black list are known as scammers and we are aware of their dishonest behavior. We placed their photos and personal information to prevent their attempts to trick our clients. We hope this will help our clients to avoid being hurt. That is why these ladies never happened to be on our website!
We are dedicated to providing the most accurate database of available ladies and we go to great lengths to assure that all information we display is current. No profile is activated on our sites without our staff calling the lady and verifying her information first.
There are many hundreds of exciting companionship and dating agencies on the internet. Unfortunately, almost all websites in this business (even impressive looking ones) are actually tiny, fly-by-night operations run from a Post Office Box, or literally from someone's basement.
Anastasia is the industry leader with over 23,000 current women members, more than 80 full-time employees in the US and Russia, years of nation-wide advertising, the industry's only full-time office in Moscow, Russia and representatives in most major cities of the former USSR. We have been in business since 1993 and have conducted over 100 successful group tours to Russia and Ukraine.
The owners of most US based dating sites have little, if any, experience in the former Soviet Union. They simply advertise in Russian newspapers & sell you whatever responses they happen to get. The vast majority of US agencies have no means, or desire to verify the girl's addresses before they pass them to their clients. Some of the most dishonest companies even sometimes buy photos from Russian modeling agencies and sell them under false addresses.
Anastasia conducts 19 tours a year to Russia and Ukraine. We spend an average 110 days in Russia/Ukraine every year. 80% of the ladies from our database have attended our tour socials & met with our Russian/American staff. We have not received these ladies' photos through the mail - The ladies have actually brought us their photos, we've seen these ladies in person & we were able to verify that all of them are single, available and seriously interested in finding a partner.
Get answers for all your questions right now!
Customer service is always available during normal business hours. We are here to answer any questions you might have about your order, Russia, Romantic Tours or our company.
Your orders are guaranteed to be on their way to you within 24-48 hours.
Anastasia publishes more color photo catalogs than any other company in the industry. We publish 4 regular issues plus two "Ladies 35+" catalogs a year. Consider this: Out of the hundreds of Russian-American dating sites on the web, only two other companies publish any catalogs at all!

At Anastasia we realize that "word of mouth" is our most important form of advertising. Thousands of men and women join our program every year after learning about us from our successful former clients.

Glicosídeo ou glicósidos compreende uma classe de substâncias químicas formadas pela união de moléculas de glícidos - glicídeos, gliconas ou "oses" (geralmente um monossacarídeo) - e aglicona, da qual resulta uma glicose por hidrólise.

Os glicosídeos também são conhecidos por heterosídeos e podem desempenhar funções importantes nos organismos vivos. Muitas plantas biossintetizam e armazenam substâncias químicas sob a forma de glicosídeos inativos, que podem ser ativados por hidrólise enzimática libertando a aglicona (geralmente um metabólito secundário) e a aglicona. Entretanto, alguns glicosídeos podem ser sintéticos ou mesmo semi-sintéticos.

Os vegetais biossintetizam uma gama enorme de glicosídeos, os quais podem ser subdivididos em quatro grandes categorias de acordo com o tipo de átomo da aglicona que se une a uma aglicona através de uma ligação glicosídica (com consequente perda de uma molécula de água): O-, C-, N- e S-glicosídeos. Os mais comuns são os O-glicosídeos, onde a ligação glicosídica é formada a partir de um grupamento hidroxila da aglicona e outro da molécula de açúcar, como mostra a estrutura química ao lado.

Como classes ou categorias de glicosídeos, podem ser citados os cardiotônicos, os cianogenéticos e os antraquinônicos. Também é comum citar o nome da classe da aglicona precedido da palavra heterosídeo ou glicosídeo, como por exemplo "glicosídeos flavonóides", indicado na estrutura ao lado. Outros glicosídeos possuem nomes próprios e já fica subentendido que existe uma aglicona ligada a uma ou mais oses, como é o caso dos taninos hidrolisáveis e das saponinas.

Muitos glicosídeos são importantes na terapêutica e estão presentes em plantas medicinais, tais como os cardiotônicos, destacando-se a digitoxina isolada de espécies do gênero Digitalis, no caso a D. purpurea, conhecida como dedaleira, e a  digoxina, isolada de D. lanata.

Alvaro Morata Goal Sees Revamped Atlético Squad Get Off to Winning Start in La Liga
Atletico Madrid's revamped team got off to a winning start in the Spanish league on Sunday, edging Getafe 1-0 with a first-half goal by Alvaro Morata.
MADRID — Atletico Madrid's revamped team got off to a winning start in the Spanish league on Sunday, edging Getafe 1-0 with a first-half goal by Alvaro Morata.
The striker scored with a header off a well-placed cross by right back Kieran Trippier, one of the many new players in an Atletico squad that was without Antoine Griezmann for the first time in five seasons.
Griezmann's replacement, young Portuguese star Joao Felix, had a decent performance but was substituted with an apparent leg injury midway through the second half.
Both teams finished the match with 10 men at Wanda Metropolitano Stadium. Getafe striker Jorge Molina was shown a straight red card in the 38th for a foul from behind on Atletico midfielder Thomas Partey. Less than five minutes later, Renan Lodi—another newcomer for Atletico—was sent off with a second yellow for elbowing an opponent while jumping for a header.
Molina was initially shown a yellow card but the referee determined after video review that he deserved a red.
Getafe nearly pulled off an equalizer a few minutes from the end but Angel Rodriguez's long-range shot hit the crossbar.
Morata got on the board with a header in the 23rd after the assist from Trippier, who played well in his first competitive game with Atletico since joining from Tottenham.
Felix, the 19-year-old forward signed from Benfica for more than 120 million euros ($133 million), showed a glimpse of his talent with a run that led to a penalty kick early in the second half. Morata missed a chance to increase Atletico's lead when his shot from the spot was saved by goalkeeper David Soria.
In addition to losing Griezmann, whose move cost rival Barcelona 120 million euros in the offseason, Diego Simeone's team also lost veterans Diego Godin, Filipe Luis and Juanfran Torres.
New signings Mario Hermoso and Marcos Llorente came off the bench to make the official debuts.
Striker Diego Costa didn't play because of a muscle injury.
On Saturday, Real Madrid opened with a 3-1 win at Celta Vigo.
Two-time defending league champion Barcelona lost 1-0 at Athletic Bilbao on Friday.

From health advantage to health disadvantage: the epidemiological paradox in rural migrants
LI Jianmin1,2 WANG Ting1 SUN Zhishuai1

(2.Collaborative Innovation Center for China Economy, Nankai University)
【Abstract】Using the data from China Labor-force Dynamics Survey, this paper analyzed the change of health gap between rural migrants and urban residents as well as the mechanisms causing this change in the process of rural-urban migration. By applying the logit model and Fairlie non-linear decomposition method, we have the following findings. (1) There is a health loss mechanism during the rural-urban migration process in accordance with the "epidemiological paradox." A transition is observed from health advantage into health disadvantage for rural migrants comparing to urban residents, suggesting that rural-urban migration has a negative impact on the health conditions of rural migrants. (2) The health maintenance factor and the health loss factor are important reasons for the health gap between rural migrants and urban residents, while the health loss factor is more important. Variables such as living environment, individual income deprivation, workload, and living with spouse have great contribution to the health gap. (3) The changing trend of health conditions of male and female rural migrants is consistent with the whole sample. The relationship of the health conditions between male and female rural migrants is in line with the "gender paradox of health," with different factors affecting the health conditions of male and female rural migrants.

[2]. (2) The migrants (floating population) refers to a group of people whose permanent residence are different from their household registration places and have left the household registration places for more than half a year. In view of the purpose of this study, samples of urban-rural migrants, urban-urban migrants, rural residents, and migrants who had returned to their hometowns were excluded. [^Back]

(3) Another commonly used method to classify self-rated health is to assign a score of 0 to the options "very healthy," "healthy" and "fair," and assign a score of 1 to the options "unhealthy" and "very unhealthy." This study also used this classification method to fit the data. The results were consistent with the basic conclusions of this paper. [^Back]

Tote-ally Sweet Promotion Success
Bob Jesenovec, Mar 19, 2018
OPRAH WINFREY NETWORK (OWN):
QUEEN SUGAR LAUNCH
The Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN) was debuting a new show, "Queen Sugar," at the 2016 Essence Music Fest in New Orleans and wanted to use promotional tote bags branded with a hashtag of the show's name to help create awareness and drive social media buzz for its newest and highly anticipated drama.
This concept was both, a highly visible marketing strategy and an opportunity for significant ROI. Unfortunately, the timeframe for getting this accomplished was extremely short, as the event was only a few weeks away.
Leaderpromos challenged its global supply chain to identify all options for sourcing, producing and delivering the 4,500 bags – all while under the near-impossible deadline. After evaluating all the available options, Leaderpromos proposed that The Oprah Winfrey Network move forward with 100-percent cotton tote bags, screen-printed with the hashtag "#QueenSugar" and the OWN logo in black.
The clean, simple look was on brand and definitely in line with the show's novel roots of being staged on a cotton farm. The design of the graphic elements allowed for easy readability of the hashtag and OWN logo so viewers could quickly recognize and relate it to the OWN brand.
This campaign was a huge hit! The totes were hugely popular and demand for them far exceeded the forecasted numbers. So much so that the 4,500 totes were gone in only a few hours.
Powered by the hashtag being prominently displayed to encourage social participation, hundreds of hashtag mentions for #QueenSugar appeared at Twitter throughout the festival.
Event goers carrying the totes throughout the venue provided continuous promotional reinforcement for the new show and when people posed for photographs with them alongside their friends, family and even the show's cast members, it only amplified the hype for the new show on social media.

San Fernando, Luzon Island – Entry made in parlor of No. 2 Calle Santa Elena, Manila
Decoration Day. The first service of this character was performed today in Manila out in Battery Knoll cemetery. Out of bed early, read a chapter in Numbers, also part if not all of a psalm. Prayed. Cooked breakfast. Another short prayer. Leaving my dishes unwashed walked down to the Pasig quay and boarded the Dagupan R. R. train. Bought 5 cents worth peanuts to provide against hunger in case I got nothing to eat at the front. Train full of soldiers & a few civilians going north. Met some of the 3d artillery boys below Malolos. Were sent down with the expectation of meeting the enemy.
At Malolos Filipinos young & old, male & female, swarmed the depot with eggs, bananas, roast chicken & fine yellow mangoes for sale. I bought 2 of the latter & gave one to a soldier. He divided bananas with me. At noon partook thereof. The mangoes are excellent – the Malolos production.
The Bagbag bridge span has not been raised out of the water, but a wood frame put in above it.
Arrived in Malolos about 1.30 p.m. Big crowd of soldiers at the depot. A Montana man guided me to the quarter of E. Co. 1st Montana. Quickly found Private D. G. Hines. He conducted me to another building, or rather nipa hut, where Bro. Dave Freeman was rustled up. On further to the cook's domicile we came up with Bro. A. Lloyd. The latter looks well, as does Freeman, but Hines is not himself. Is not yet over the effects of his sunstroke. Capt. A. Jensen (commander of E. Company) sent word out from town to the effect "Hines is not sick at all; he goes around with Major Milsaps all day." So Hines informed me.
The three men claim to be doing well in soul, praise God.
At the cook's domicile a little warm coffee was left over from dinner, Hines put some bamboo under the cooking frame & fried me a couple of duck eggs. These with coffee & bread served me for dinner. After eating the 3 of us knelt down & prayed – each taking turn. I took the photos of the men with their guns, then bidding the unsaved men & Freeman adieu we trudged off to turn.
Freeman gave me $15 green bucks to keep for him $3 is for his Tenth League payment. Says I can use all of it Hines wants me to take his dues out & he will settle with Freeman. Has Freeman's consent. Did not give F. a receipt.
Hines, Lloyd & I went as far as the main plaza where I took snaps of the street buildings & 2 of the church.
Hurried back to the depot just in time to catch the train. A teamster who drives for the Utah Artillery joined us. Knew & heard me speak in San Francisco he said. Urged him to seek Christ. Train overcrowded, 86, 20th Kansas Vol. Inf. sick were going to Manila for treatment. Passenger cars crowded out, some troops on the roof of cars. I climbed into a box car. Bade Hines & Lloyd good-bye. Left them S.A. song books. Asked them to arrange a meeting for me with the 20th Kansas & write immediately if they succeed. Bro't out with me to Hines $1 (U.S. coin) with postage stamps, a package of envelope, writing paper & a War Cry. Envelopes, paper, & Cry gifts.
Sat in the box car door on the floor, a la Turk, among 20th Kans. Sick. Brought Salvation to the attention of several. Also dealt personally with others this day.
From the train going & coming I saw numbers of natives returning to their farms & town homes.
Considerable sugar is raised in the vicinity of San Fernando. This town is well built. But few buildings, excepting the R. Catholic church, are burnt.
There is much talk among the Montana & Kansas troops re returning home. They are weary of this war. The soldiers get the hard knocks & the officers get the glory.
Left S. Fernando 3 p.m. & arrived at Manila about 6 p.m.
Turned to & cooked supper. Very tired & hot.
Rev. & Mrs. Owens were out to Decoration Day ceremonies at Battery Knoll. Chaplains Pierce & Cressy delivered the orations. Owens said the grave of Chief Scout Wm H. Young had a shaft of flowers over it about 6 feet high. Men are often highly honored in death but sadly neglected in life. A short time before his death I met Young on the Escolta. He felt blue & seemed discouraged. Complained that the U.S. Commanding officers would give him no chance to do anything not even to follow civil employment for a living. A little while latter the newspapers began publishing the brave deeds and exploits of Chief Scout Young & his 25 men. His career was brief but was extremely energetic & disastrous to the Filipinos. Y. was wounded in the knee from which he died by rupturing a vein. Young was a man of herculean build & was reputed a dead shot. He would attract attention in any crowd – his splendid physique. I first noticed him out at La Loma trying to borrow a Kragg, to fight the "niggers" – from the 3d Artillery troops. Afterwards, he kept with the Montana regiment, & was driven away from them.
And so it went. He was chased about & finally arrested. The military geniuses would give him no chance to fight. At last Gen'l Lawton utilized Young by making him a scout & sent him forth with 25 men. Y. and this hand full in a few days made a phenomenal record. Now he is dead & the living pile high the flowers on the resting place of one who but a few weeks ago they were arresting.
The outlook is black for our 4 sailors. Orders are that civilians cannot return on U.S. transports until the troops (volunteers) are first returned home. They may have to remain several months if such is the case.
One of the sailors, Rev. Owens said tonight called on Gen'l Otis but was ordered out of his office. They hoped to get back on the "Hancock" but may not succeed. These poor fellows have no money & are now supported chiefly by Owens & myself –
Left with Bro. Hines to distribute among the Filipinos 3 New Testaments, several Spurgeon's sermons for the Spanish inhabitants of San Fernando and 2 or 3 New Testaments English for the American.
Returning on the train to town – I saw an ingenious trench constructed by the Filipinos. The trench was at the base of a railroad embarkment about 10 feet high. At the based the trench wound like the trail of a serpent /\/\/\/\ with the dirt thrown on the side away from the R.R. embarkment. A soldier informed me that it was used for a "get-away' trench & curved to protect the retreating enemy from the bullets of a flank fire from either side. The cunning displayed by the Filipinos in the construction of defenses is remarkable, but their best efforts have availed nothing because they will not stand. American troops in these trenches would prove a terrible foe to attack.

This double-handled vase, with festoons, boasts bas-relief panelling with cupids in a rustic setting. The quality of the craftsmanship is enhanced by the materials used: the 'terraglia' earthenware is a particularly fine ceramic mixture discovered by the English in the middle of the 18th century. It is essentially white and covered with a very thin transparent borosilicate finishing layer. The history behind the Palermo factory where this vase was made is particularly interesting. It took place in a "village" located between Palermo and Monreale known as Villa Nova, where aristocratically styled residential buildings rose up alongside warehouses and workshops that promoted philanthropic ideals and productive interests, in line with the Illuminist ideology of the time. This particular industrial village was created by Giuseppe Malvica, and at the height of its economic success it attracted as many as one thousand resident workers: these were the years in which it was fashionable among the aristocracy to renovate or build palaces and villas with matching floors and furnishings, imitating imperial residences. Palermo had after all become the seat of the Bourbon court, which took refuge here following Napoleon's descent into Italy, and there were also many rich and powerful British families living there. In other words Palermo was financially prosperous and had a lively market. Giuseppe Malvica, a spice merchant, got wind of the situation, and despite being the son of a modest labourer from the deepest provinces, he bought his baron's title for 25 ounces (of gold). Then he launched himself into reckless yet profitable business dealings: he imported cloth from England and exported soap, olives, grains and starch; then he imported British leather and exported sumac. In 1799 King Ferdinand granted Malvica a license to open his own "industrial village" between Palermo and Monreale. Thanks to this position, the goods produced at Villa Nova weren't required to pay and levies to enter or exit the city, and water was plentiful. The village included a craft college which trained specialist workers that were not as expensive as "foreign artists". At the beginning of the 19th century Malvica asked for and was granted a large loan to expand his ceramic and cloth production. But the Malvica production lines soon became obsolete: they hadn't introduced the use of steam or water powered machinery. It was powered entirely by mules and manpower. So when King Ferdinand II of the House of Bourbon left Palermo in 1815 to make his return to Naples, many of the English families left too and Italy was also overrun with foreign products owing to the expansion of markets as a result of Napoleon's defeat. Baron Malvica's production facilities were forced to shut down and the "industrial village" gradually became nothing more than a "very poor village".

Record Store Day is fast approaching and we wanted to give you a heads up about what all will be taking place at The End of All Music this year. This will be our third consecutive Record Store Day to participate in and it's a wonderful day to celebrate independent record stores and labels. In the past we've had special events planned for the day but this year we really wanted to amp it up and make it more about the community surrounding The End of All Music. In short, Record Store Day is about more than just selling limited edition records. It's about bringing a community together to celebrate music and hanging out with friends.
First up, we'll be releasing a limited-edition cassette compilation featuring all Oxford-based musicians. The cassette is made up of 19 tracks clocking in at over an hour featuring some of our favorite bands from the area. This release will only be available from us on Record Store Day in a limited run of 250 copies. All of the proceeds from the sale of the release will go directly to MusiCares—the excellent musician assistance charity through the Recording Academy of America. Proud Larry's will host an official after party featuring many of the bands from the compilation. The show will start at 8 p.m. tentatively and will have a $10 cover fee at the door. Any remaining copies of the cassette will also be for sale at Proud Larry's during the show.
Next, we'll have a limited edition t-shirt to commemorate record store culture designed by J. Burwell. The shirts will be limited to 50 and are surely to sell out quickly.
Len Clark designed the poster for this year's Record Store Day. Len's work was featured on our popular birthday party poster last year. The poster will also be for sale in an extremely limited quantity. The first 5 people in line when we open will get a free poster as well.
The Liberal Arts 102 class at the University of Mississippi has been studying music writing this semester, while also writing some of their own. We thought it would be cool to pick some of our favorite pieces from the class and collect them in a zine. The zine will feature the best writing from the class and will be given out for free to folks that come by the record store on Record Store Day. These will be available while supplies last. The first 5 folks in line when we open will also get a copy of the zine.
We'll be offering up some food and drink throughout the day provided by local businesses; High Point Coffee, Yalobusha Brewing Co., Mary McGuires Cakes, and Confit Web Design. High Point Coffee will be selling cups of fresh-brewed coffee all morning starting at 9 a.m. We open at 10 a.m. but we know lots of folks like to get their spot in line early, so now you can drink some coffee while waiting for the store to open. Coffee will be $1 a cup and all the proceeds will go to MusiCares. Starting around 2 p.m. we'll tap a keg of special Record Store Day brew from Yalobusha Brewing Co. out of Water Valley, Mississippi. We're calling the beer "Straight to Tape IPA," and it'll be free until it runs out. Our buddies, Mary McGuires Cakes of Tupelo, Mississippi will be providing record-themed sweet treats throughout the day. And last but not least, James Kellaway of Confit Web Design, will be smoking complimentary pulled pork all day.
Cole Furlow of Dead Gaze will provide the entertainment for the afternoon. He'll be spinning records in front of the store starting around 2 p.m.
We'll post a complete list on our website by 6 p.m. on Friday, April 18 of limited-edition releases we'll have stocked for Record Store Day. These releases are only available at participating record stores and are strictly sold on a first come, first served basis. Only one copy per title per person may be purchased. There are absolutely no holds on any Record Store Day releases. We will sell any remaining RSD titles over the phone or web starting Monday, April 21 at 10 a.m.
The first 5 people in line when we open at 10 a.m. will have 5 extra minutes to shop before we open the door to everyone else. They will also get a free poster and zine. So come early, and stay late. We're going to have a good time.


Do you want to work with communication across borders and cultures?
In a global society we meet people from different cultures and social backgrounds in a variety of contexts, challenging the ways we communicate with one another. Communication is for example crucial when encountering different nationals in a business meeting or when integrating migrants in the local community.
During your studies in Communication Studies + Cultural Encounters, you will gain insights into effective and engaging communication to relevant target groups, as well as in the sharing of knowledge to relevant actors. You will engage with strategic communication in an international or/and intercultural context, both for internal or external communication purposes. You will gain knowledge on the concept of culture and analytical tools that allow you to understand and work with culture in theory and practice, working with problems that involve multicultural or multilingual contexts.
The programme provides a broad basis to engage with the planning and development of communication material and communicative processes for a variety of purposes: cross-national and cross-cultural collaborations, newsmaking and the dissemination of culture, as well as for the development of organisations and employees.

US tops index measuring the capacity for social innovation
High-income countries, particularly OECD members, top the Social Innovation Index
Data transparency is crucial in promoting social innovation, but few countries are open enough
Legal frameworks for social enterprises are still rare
A new report released today (September 29th) by The Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) finds the top ten countries with the most capacity for social innovation are mainly rich Western nations: aside from the US (1st), Canada (3rd) and New Zealand (6th), all others are wealthy European nations. Saudi Arabia, Paraguay and the Philippines occupy the bottom three positions in the index.
The Social Innovation Index 2016, sponsored by Nippon Foundation, is a ranking of 45 countries in the environment that enables social innovation. The index is a first-of-its kind in content and scale and sheds light on some of the common characteristics of social innovation seen around the world. It finds that much work remains to be done to enable social innovation efforts to flourish.
Top ranking countries in the Index tend to have high per-capita income and human development indicators as well as stable democratic governance, and institutional and policy support for social innovation were given a relatively heavy weighting in the Index.
Many experts see policies around data transparency as one of the main building blocks for social innovation, particularly in the delivery of social services at the community level. The EIU awarded only nine countries the top score in the indicator that measures whether governments collect and publish relevant data and research the impact of and need for social innovation.
Legal frameworks that underpin social innovation are complex but one of the most important aspects is whether a country has a legal framework for social enterprises. To date only seven countries in the Index have such frameworks in place. Legal protection and regulation is necessary to bring social enterprises to the attention of policymakers and the public, clearing ambiguities around their status, which can sometimes have financial consequences.
Naka Kondo, editor of the report, said:
"Policymakers, non-government organisations, charities and entrepreneurs across the world are showing increasing interest in 'social innovation' as a means of addressing various problems from poverty and homelessness to environmental degradation. For social innovation to really gain traction there must be data proving its impact and this data must be freely available. This would help secure further support from governments, businesses, donors and investors. At the moment efforts to collect such data are lacking in most countries."

Psychoses As A Continuum and Childhood Bullying: What about It?
According to an article by Cambridge University Press, the relationship between bullying and illness on the psychosis-continuum — including full blown psychosis, psychotic-like experiences, and its related syndromes/disorders like schizophrenia — have long been topics of study in social psychiatry. A number of studies have noted an association between being the victim of bullying and psychotic symptoms. In van Dam and his colleagues' meta-analysis, it suggests that being bullied in childhood ('bullying victimization') increases the risk of psychotic symptoms twofold in a dose-response fashion. Bullying is related to more persistent symptoms and further increased when victims of bullying are also perpetrators.
On a similar note, based on an analysis of almost 2600 British children questioned about bullying — such as saying nasty and hurtful things, kicking, pushing or shoving, and telling lies about the other — aged 12 and about psychotic symptoms aged 18, people bullied by their siblings during childhood are up to three times more likely to develop a psychotic illness. Eldest children are most likely bullies within families, with girls most likely to be victims. Parents often believe the behavior is normal and that their children will outgrow it eventually. However, researchers led by Warwick University say being bullied means there is no 'safe space' to escape the torment. For those bullied both at home and in school, their odds are four times as high.
Senior author Professor Dieter Wolke, from the from the University of Warwick's Department of Psychology and Division of Mental Health & Wellbeing commented in the very article: "Bullying by siblings has been until recently widely ignored as a trauma that may lead to serious mental health problems such as psychotic disorder," and mentioned that if "children spend substantial time with their siblings in the confinement of their family home and if bullied and excluded" can lead to "social defeat and self-blame and serious mental health disorder."
The study, published in the journal Psychological Medicine, states that childhood trauma creates a lasting 'cognitive vulnerability' in the brain, with bullying found to make people more sensitive to stress. Furthermore, the researchers stated that 'sibling aggression is the most common form of family violence', it's not something that can simply be perceived as normal behavior.
Parents should be aware of the long-term mental health consequences that sibling bullying may have and understand that interventions must be developed in order to reduce and even prevent this form of aggression within families.
If you are interested in what trauma does to the brain and body, I suggest reading "The Body Keeps the Score" by Bessel van der Kolk, a neurologist who has spent his professional life studying how children and adults adapt to traumatic experiences.
Lastly, don't be afraid to seek help when you need it. It's not a sign of weakness, simply a sign of how strong and resilient you are.
"If you're hurting, don't be afraid to seek the help you need! Speak to someone — it may just change your life." - Demi Lovato
My name is Emily and I'm an ordinary person who aspires to do something extraordinary. My hobbies include baking, reading, journaling, writing, and sometimes attempting new things. Most importantly, I believe that every person deserves to live with promise and hope. However there are still a lot of people that have to deal with bullying every single day, thus I want to change that. I want to be part of the solution, part of the change, and as Anne Frank once said, "How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world."


The body has (3) metabolic energy systems. Each metabolic system is responsible for making energy from specific types of food & fuel. Much like our muscles if we don't train these systems they weaken.
1: Aerobic energy system (post 2mins) Designed to burn a combination of FATS and CARBOHYDRATES. Very important to cardiac health, endurance & fat burning.
2: Anaerobic energy system (under 2mins) Designed to burn stored CARBOHYDRATES in the muscles, liver or bloodstream. Very important for energy production when "going hard" and utilizing the food we eat.
3: Phosphogen energy system (3-30secs , 5-20mins) Your body uses CREATINE to aid in this internal energy process.

IPOB: NIGERIAN GOVERNMENT TACTICS TO SILENCE NNAMDI KANU'S CALL FOR BIAFRA
It is my pleasure to use this medium to contribute my own quota on the way forward regarding the nightmarish Biafra struggle against Nigeria. As you can see, Biafra has been a dangerous bone in the throat of Nigeria.
Recently, Nigeria has been reeling in a serous mess due to the formidable and irreconcilable stand of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) globally, under the able leadership of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu towards the restoration of the sovereignty of the nation of Biafra. Despite the traps/ambushes laid by the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) which the Nigerian government has unavoidably fallen into, due to it's desperation to maintain a delusional one Nigeria, there is still a way out for the country, however.
The leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) globally, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, has unarguably remained till date, a peaceful, highly intelligent and disciplined freedom fighter, right from onset. I have painstakingly studied him and the outcome of that study and observation obviously show that he is not waging war against the Nigerian State but rather, he mostly applies diplomacy and intelligence in his pursuits while yet expecting the Nigerian government to intelligently comply. It has proven over time to be fruitless as the Nigerian government has chosen to remain adamantly unlearning. That has even created more room for the resolutness of the Indigenous People Of Biafra (IPOB), for the total dismemberment of the Nigerian forced entity.
These are the easiest ways for the Nigerian government to permanently end the Biafra agitation and no man even within the old Eastern region will continue with the Biafra agitations whether it be Mazi Nnamdi Kanu or not. The options in accordance with the IPOB leader's stance are:
(1) The current Nigerian President is not Muhammadu Buhari. The government must have to conduct a necessary DNA test that will prove otherwise which will be monitored by international doctors and communities. If my proof is false, I will drop BIAFRA agitation.
(2) Let all the professors in Nigeria challenge me in an open debate that will be monitored by international observers and if I do not defeat them in twenty minutes, I hands off the struggle.
Rather than for the Nigerian government led by Muhammadu Buhari to welcome the challenges in good fate, it resorted to the use of guns and bullets against IPOB family members. It is impossible to beat a child and tell he/her, not to cry. The above options will be in the best interest of Nigeria and her citizens to embrace before it becomes too late. This is unlike when Mazi Nnamdi Kanu called for a dialogue but those in Aso Rock declined. The more the Nigerian government ignores laudable civilized options and requests, the more he gets vindicated, which is an additional boast to the struggle.
I therefore advice Nigerians to compel their President to undergo the DNA test and stage a debate that will be inclusive of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu. That is the only peaceful, non disgraceful escape route for Nigeria and her handlers.
A word is enough for the wise!

Home News Former bank execs in Iceland jailed for banking collapse
Former bank execs in Iceland jailed for banking collapse
12/30/12 6:27pm by Chris in Paris 9
Oh how interesting, who would have imagined — jailing bank execs.
We prefer letting our bankers keep all of the bonus money paid out for bogus deals, then let them walk away with millions more. On top of that, we keep distorting the economy and weakening the middle class by diluting any money they leave in the banks, while showering free money onto the entire banking system so that they can maintain their beloved lifestyle.
Gosh, the thought of jailing a banker just sounds so crazy. It's as if they are actually being held responsible for the destruction they left in their wake of their greedy, self-centered, feeding frenzy. Go figure.
NY Times:

A Reykjavik court sentenced Glitnir's former chief executive, Larus Welding, and former head of corporate finance, Gudmundur Hjaltason, each to nine months in jail, of which six months were suspended for two years. They had denied the charges.
Prosecutors said the two approved a loan to a company which owned shares in Glitnir so that the company could in turn repay a debt to Morgan Stanley.
The decision, taken outside the regular decision-making process, meant Glitnir was too exposed to the company and cost the bank at least 53.7 million euros (43 million pounds), the prosecution said.

This 'Iceland' place… I assume it's run under Sharia law, or some other scary '-ism' system which I don't fully understand but which are apparently being used by liberals to destroy America…?
OtterQueen says:
They cost the bank $70 million, and they get 3 months in jail? Well, it's a step in the right direction.
Max_1 says:
Shhh. Don't tell Obama this…
… His DOJ might get ideas.
hauksdottir says:
The Isle of Jersey, Bermuda, Caymans, etc., are all dinky compared to Iceland.
arcadesproject says:
You can't be too big to jail in Iceland cuz Iceland is kind of small so its banksters are on a whole different scale from US banksters so that explains it. Right?
Sweetie says:
Prison labor. It's a hot new industry. Ask ALEC.
Those backward Icelanders don't understand the role of law. The law is designed to fleece the people and line the pockets of the elite.
gratuitous says:
Wait, what if those two guys were about to create, like, a kajillion jobs??? And now they're rotting away in jail, and there aren't a kajillion jobs!
RepubAnon says:
Holding bankers liable for their fraudulent actions doesn't sound like a very business-friendly environment. Neither does having both laws against such actions, and the will to enforce those laws.


Japan successfully launched its first re-supply spacecraft to the International Space Station today. After liftoff at 17:01 GMT (12:01 CDT) from Tanegashima Space Center in southern Japan, flight controllers confirmed the HTV-1 spacecraft separated from the H-2B rocket and now is in its preliminary orbit. The flight profile has the HTV taking seven days to reach the ISS so controllers can run various tests and demonstrations on its maiden voyage before rendezvousing with the space station. Unlike previous re-supply ships that dock directly to the station, the HTV will fly to within 10 meters from the ISS on September 17, and then astronaut Nicole Stott will reach out and grapple the spacecraft with the space station's robotic arm, Canadarm 2, and connect it to the Harmony module on the ISS.
The new HTV spacecraft is the latest in an international fleet of cargo ships to support the space station. While capable of carrying 6.5 tons of cargo, on this first flight it is bringing up 5 tons of food, experiments and other supplies for the ISS. Unlike previous supply ships, it can haul large unpressurized experiments and equipment to remain outside the station, as well as supplies for inside the station, too. For its flight debut, the HTV-1's external cargo drawer is filled with two experiments – one for JAXA and one for NASA – to be attached to the Kibo lab's external porch.
The HTV weighs about 16 tons, is 9 meters (30 feet) long and 4.2 meters (14.5 feet) in diameter.
Another difference is that craft doesn't have solar array wings, but has 57 solar arrays molded around the spacecraft to gather power from sunlight.
The success of both the HTV and the H-2B rocket will likely prove to be an important stepping stone for JAXA, as the country has ambitions of heading to the moon and Mars.
I like your blog, I really do. Your articles are informative and well thought out and researched. Which is why the following was such a shock and so disappointing.
As a Canadian I am a bit troubled about your usage of the words "robotic arm". It is the Canadarm2, not the robotic arm. Media and nearly everyone else in the US seem to do this to us. Even the Canadarm succumbed to this renaming after it was placed on the Space Shuttle, which is now also referred to as the "robotic arm". Please use the actual name of the device from here on as you seem to be able to do so with every other tech device. Perhaps once this could be passed off as an oversight, but twice is now a pattern. The Canadian-made robotic arms (Canadarm and Canadarm2) were efforts that Canada is just as proud of as Americans are of their space shuttle and everything else in your space program. It is only fair that the same respect is given to Canadian researchers and technology developers for all the effort they put into the development of these wonderful tools.
Roen- You are right. I've added the real name of the device to the article and will try to be diligent about using the proper names for them in the future.

Q: How To Properly Call a Method From a Mocked Method in Google Test/Mock In Gmock, I'm trying to get a mocked method to sleep for a few milliseconds and then call a method in the Class under Test. Here is an example of what I'm trying to do:
EXPECT_CALL(mockedClass, mockedMethod())
        .Times(1)
        .WillOnce(DoAll(Wait(100), ClassUnderTest.MethodToCall()));

I've defined Wait() a little higher up as:
ACTION_P(Wait, ms) { Sleep(ms); }

The problem is that I can't seem to get away from this compiler error:
Error C2664: cannot convert argument 2 from 'const Action2' to 'const testing::Action<F>&'

I just started using Google Test/Mock recently and nothing I've tried or can find seems to do anything about the problem.
Can anyone help me understand how to properly call a method from a mocked method in Google Test/Mock?

A: Try using InvokeWithoutArgs, smth like this:
EXPECT_CALL(mockedClass, mockedMethod())
        .WillOnce(DoAll(Wait(100), InvokeWithoutArgs([&ClassUnderTest]() { ClassUnderTest.MethodToCall(); } ));

Times(1) is not needed with WillOnce.

A: You should be able to do both function calls with InvokeWithoutArgs:
EXPECT_CALL(mockedClass, mockedMethod())
        .Times(1)
        .WillOnce(DoAll(InvokeWithoutArgs(Sleep(100)),
                        InvokeWithoutArgs(ClassUnderTest.MethodToCall())));

Transmog friends, much has happened since I last wrote a post. Within the world of Warcraft, as well as in our real reality, but thankfully we can still come together to enjoy some transmog!
How have you all been enjoying Legion? I have to be honest and say that I have been rather obsessed with the new Hunter sets that were released in Emerald Nightmare, and PvP season 1. (It was a bit disappointing that the Nighthold had the same looks, but that is neither here nor there I guess). I managed to collect 4 of the 5 colour ways pretty quickly, and have been mostly switching from one to the other. *Gasp* It is shocking I know… such a change from my signature mix and match transmog ways. These sets are truly gorgeous though, and I was so happy to finally have a hunter set that I could be unabashedly in love with.
From left to right: LFR, PvP, Normal EN, and Heroic EN. I am missing the Mythic colouring which I like to call the Sylvanas cosplay set, because my guild was never able to get 20 people online to start trying Mythic. That is OK though, I will go back and get it eventually, because who can resist cosplaying Sylvanas, no one, I tell you.
For those of you who follow me on Twitter, some months back (I know too long ago, sorry!) I tweeted a poll and asked everyone what kind of post they would like to see from me once I had time to write again. As I recall, the two highest responses were "Another Hunter mog", and a "Sensational Strangers" post. Today I will be ticking off the first of the two, and will hopefully follow that up with an amazing stranger's transmog soon.
Two things happened this week. (Well actually several more things happened this week with the release of patch 7.2, but I mean two specific things). I was able to finish the Trial of Valor quest and gave Odyn his 1000 pieces of those gold shiny things he wanted, and I played around with the inky black potion that can be bought during the Darkmoon Faire. If you have yet purchased this marvelous invention, you have to drop what you are doing, visit the Darkmoon Faire and get one, or fifty.
Halls of Valor, with inky black potion in action. Eh? Eh? Gorgeous. I will circle back to this shortly, but now let me show you my new transmog.
It seems fitting to start the fight against the Legion on the Broken Shore with some Val'kyr might to back you up. The set from Trial of Valor is perfect for mix and match transmogs, and as you can see, I only used four of the pieces. There are many other cloaks that would suit this transmog as well, but I stuck with this one for now. It was also nice to have a use for the Huntmaster's longbow, bought in the Hunter Class Hall. It honestly looks like it was designed to go with the armour sets from Trial of Valor.
I chose to show you this closeup, not to shove Eluvia's chest in your face, but to try and show you the magical glyph detailing in the shoulders. On the right shoulder especially, the glyphs scroll across the shoulder pad in a rather impressive manner.
I could not resist taking some screenshots of Eluvia in this transmog while playing with the inky black potion in the Halls of Valor. The transmog colour scheme was just too perfect to pass up the opportunity.
I feel like there should be an angelic soundtrack behind these images.. "ahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah".
As Eluvia resumes her responsibilities of leading the Hunter's into battle against the Legion, I would love to see your transmogs inspired by the new Legion sets, or just the whole sets themselves. See you in Azeroth!
Full Metal Cutie – Socketshot is ready for Legion!

Cinematographers Honor Lubezki, Children of Men
On the heels of his recent Best Cinematography feting from the Los Angeles Film Critics Association for his work in Children of Men, Emmanuel Lubezki took top honors in the feature film competition last night at the 21st annual American Society of Cinematographers (ASC) Outstanding Achievement Awards at the Hyatt Regency Century Plaza Hotel.<?xml:namespace prefix = o />
This is the first ASC Award for Lubezki, who was nominated along with Dick Pope, for The Illusionist; Dean Semler, for Apocalypto; Robert Richardson, for The Good Shepherd; and Vilmos Zsigmond, for The Black Dahlia. The award was presented by Tim Allen, who noted, "All of these artists contributed their talent for writing with light and motion to each story."
Charlize Theron, meanwhile, presented Allen Daviau — an Oscar nominee for films like E.T., The Color Purple, The Empire of the Sun and Bugsy — with the Lifetime Achievement Award, while the ASC John Alonzo Heritage Award — named in honor of the cinematographer of such classics as Harold and Maude, Norma Rae and Scarface — was presented to a pair of student filmmakers, Brian Melton from the North Carolina School of the Arts and Lyle Vincent from the NYU Tisch School of the Arts. For more information, visit American Society of Cinematographers' Web site.
Hiroshima No Pika
It's ironic that "art" in the traditional sense (that is,
sculptures, paintings and the like) is so infrequently glimpsed through the
lens of today's predominate mass art form, cinema. Hiroshima No Pika remedies that, tackling its serious subject
matter with a grace, sensitivity and beauty. Based on an award-winning
children's book by Japanese artist Toshi Maruki and her husband Iri, and
narrated by Susan Sarandon, the short film uses arresting watercolor
illustrations to tell the story of a young girl and her family who survive
through the atomic bombing of Hiroshima.
While the horrific reality of the events of August 6, 1945
serve as the backdrop, it's Maruki's eye for lyrical detail — both dark and
pained, and hopeful — that articulates the humanity of the event, and makes a
stirring and even family-friendly case for its future avoidance at all costs.
Pablo Picasso's "Guernica" is a
good stylistic leaping off point of comparison, though Maruki's compositions
exhibit a fluidity that exemplifies her training and familiarity with Western
oil painting. Director Noriaki Tsuchimoto's camera ducks and pushes in on
Maruki's art, and the narration — while not overly graphic — doesn't pull many
punches. It paints a clear, succinct view of the city and its seven rivers, and
the terrible flash that pierced the morning sky upon impact; moving, too, are
images of children running to the water with their eyes fused shut. Clocking in
at 25 minutes, Hiroshima No Pika is a
mere morsel, but a powerful and affecting one.
Any reflection of the film must begin with the fact that
both Toshi Maruki and her husband survived the bombing, and paint all their
work from firsthand memories of its effect and aftermath. Blended reds and
grays dance around the edges, invading the safety and sanctity of the thin
white canvases on which they work and creating a deep sense of unease and a
disquieting rumination on mortality. It goes without saying that the magnitude
of human suffering in the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and, two days
later, Nagasaki is inherently distressing, but Hiroshima No Pika creates its own powerfully sustainable expression
of universally relatable personal grief.
DVD release extras are considerable, starting with the inclusion of
the jointly billed, Academy Award-nominated 1986 documentary Hellfire, from director John Junkerman (Power and Terror: Noam Chomsky in Our Times)
and executive producer John Dower. A 58-minute look at the Marukis and their
heralded Hiroshima murals, this is an invaluable companion piece to Hiroshima No Pika, offering as it does
intimate footage of the pair at work and them meeting with local press to
discuss their memories of the bombing and their lives' work. Other supplemental
material includes a photo gallery which viewers can toggle through, biographies
of both subjects and filmmakers, and a list of activist-oriented web sites that
can point you in the right direction when you are suitably roused to action. To purchase the movie via Amazon, click here. B

Few takers for Mohali govt college
Situated in Phase VI, Mohali, the college offers various courses in Arts, Commerce and Science. Counselling started on July 1 and is scheduled to go on till July 14.

While admissions are in full swing in the colleges of Chandigarh, the only government college in Mohali is struggling to fill up its seats across different streams.
[related-post]
In BSc (Medical), only 12 of the 30 seats have been filled. In case of BSc (Computer Applications), seven of the 30 seats have been filled, while in BSc (Biotechnology), only five of the 15 seats have been filled.
However, in BSc (Non-Medical), only four of the 30 seats are available.
In BCA, all 40 seats have been filled, while in BA, of the 650 seats, 170 have been filled.
Suman Gandhi, the principal of the college, said that due to the college being affiliated to Punjabi University, Patiala, instead of Panjab University (PU), it has few takers. "Chandigarh already has a lot of good colleges. So, why would anyone prefer to come here? It's mostly students from rural areas of Punjab and the surrounding villages of Mohali and Chandigarh who come here."
A number of teachers echoed her views. "While Punjabi University is also an acclaimed university, it cannot be considered on par with PU. The lure of studying in colleges affiliated to PU and living in Chandigarh is too hard to forsake for many students," said a professor, wishing to remain anonymous.
Meena Bharati, a professor of Biotechnology, said, "What the students don't realise is that our college has more experienced professors than the colleges of PU. A lot of students are not aware of the science courses on offer here. They get attracted to private colleges which advertise a lot, whereas being a government college, we don't have enough funds to advertise."
