A friend who was employed in a large retail store for almost 20 years told me that the first lesson she learned from her manager when she started was "A lot of customers are sometimes right." She said this realisation made her able to deal effectively with the difficult customers, the impatient customers, the angry customers – as well as with the lovely ones.
She said that anyone who believes that every customer is always right will soon find themselves looking for a new job. The manager cautioned the new employee: "It is fine to have high ideals and great expectations, but the trouble with these is that there is always a gap between dreams and reality." I think that the manager's wisdom should be passed on to educators as it will help them deal more effectively with students and their families.
The real world is not made up exclusively of saints and well-balanced people. While such people do exist, their qualities stand out simply because they are so rare. If everyone was like them, life might be more peaceful, friendlier, more bearable – but it might also be more boring. Whoever said "Vive la difference" had a point; we can say "Long live difference" simply because we able to deal with difference without too much trouble. It might be challenging, but it is not crippling, at least for most of us. Indeed, one of the hallmarks of current schooling is the universal recognition among educators that everyone is different and needs to be treated accordingly.
We know this about our students because we face their differences daily; we see that some children are quiet, others are boisterous; some are mathematically gifted, others excel in artistic fields; some have benefitted from a balanced social upbringing, while others seem to lack even the most basic of social skills. We also recognise marked differences among our colleagues, our superiors and our own family – but somehow, a lot of us seem to think that parents and carers are not like that. We assume they can be labelled in the most simplistic terms or perhaps dismissed in a few snide remarks in the staffroom. It helps, of course, if their children are included among the ones we don't particularly like because then we can glibly assume that "the fruit doesn't fall from the tree". On the other hand, we can also attribute universal positives to some parents or carers, and this select group will be henceforth safeguarded from making any errors. It is like the idea that the customer is always right, and common sense should warn us that such generalisations rarely survive even the most superficial of assessments.
In earlier generations it might not have mattered so much what we thought of parents or carers because a school's direct involvement with them was often limited. Since then, we have come to recognise them as the primary educators of the children with whom we work. If half the parents in a school population were enthusiastic about the education of their children, what a huge difference it would make – though not all of the differences would be for the better. As it is, we are not really sure just how much interest there is in most homes, apart from realising most parents comply with the relevant Education Act to ensure the education of their children. Sometimes it is suggested that parents who pay fees to send their children to private schools have proved their interest in their child's progress, but this is not necessarily the case. The choice of a school type is not an infallible indication of the parent's on-going support. Over the years, parental support for schools has waxed and waned, if you can believe the more reputable writers, and certainly there has been a change in emphasis about our expectations of such participation. No longer are we satisfied to see parent support limited to serving on canteens or attending working bees. Most schools seem to have effective Parent bodies (P&C, P&F) and School Boards or Councils and their contributions have been appreciated. However, there is another level of parental support that seems to rise or fall and that is the involvement of parents in helping their children with homework.
Recently I spoke with someone whose son had been sick for two weeks and during his enforced absence from school, the parents had helped him avoid falling too far back in his work. When the child returned to school, a lot of his missed work now completed, a teacher complained that his parents must have done the work for him. What cheek! Common sense says the student had not done the work by himself but to suggest some sort of 'cheating' by his parents was a gratuitous insult. The work was the student's, but the support came from the parents. What did the teacher prefer: that the child should approach the end of term assessment several weeks behind his peers? I thought the comment was not only insulting but also ignorant. We should be grateful for parents who want to help their children maintain their rate of performance, in so far as this is ever possible when a student is unwell. I applaud such parents and wish that their numbers would increase.
If then we can see a value in maintaining and increasing the proportion of interested parents, it follows that we should go out of our way to nurture this interest. I would like to offer some suggestions about doing this, while also warning teachers that parental interest can be a mixed blessing.
The first thing to realise is that if more parents are going to be involved in their children's schooling, they are going to need help and encouragement. This will involve teachers working out their own priorities and then communicating these to parents.
What we can expect from parents depends on the age and the ability of the student. For early childhood students, parents might like to help their child, either for homework or for prolonged absences, by reading stories to them, or playing some number games. For those in senior primary or junior secondary, the support might involve trying to make sense of the text book or the various on-line materials available to their children, to reduce the gap that would emerge during an absence. For older students, where the level of complexity of the work might be beyond the current ability of the parents, it makes sense to have their child contact a classmate to see if help can be offered from that direction – and the apparent time-wasting that this option might involve (while the classmates discuss lots of seemingly irrelevant issues!) should not cause too much angst.
The goal is not to do the work for your off-spring but to help them to see what they can learn from these available resources. This also applies when it comes to ordinary homework; if a parent thinks that their contribution should involve actually doing the work for the child, this is a big error. Help, advise, guide, by all means – but the work is the student's and this is the only way they will benefit from the effort.
This obvious aspect of parents helping children is a very important issue. The options are to ignore the homework entirely (not a good thing), to do the work for the child (even worse) or to make time to discuss the work and offer support that does not take ownership from the student. The last is the solution that I find most desirable. However, this discussion has so far only looked at what might be described as 'first aid solutions' – a parental response to a particular crisis that will emerge from time to time in a child's life. More important are the attitudes that need to permeate the entire schooling process of each child. There are other issues that need to be communicated to parents, perhaps as a reminder, so that the parents will be able to generate an environment in which the students will learn effectively. If this could be achieved, our work as teachers, and the concerns of parents, would be greatly simplified. The list of such issues is huge, but I would like to suggest five as starters.
Some parents had miserable experiences at school and they can easily pass on the negativity to their own children. If, on the other hand, parents can see schools as places that will make a real difference to the future life of their off-spring, this will impact on their future. I worked in a school where there were a lot of Asian students and I was constantly amazed by their high performance. At first I suspected that these people were simply intellectually endowed but I eventually realised that even the less talented students were still achieving highly – and I started to understand the importance of parental attitudes. Even if children were struggling, they were encouraged to see education as a positive life-changer, and this attitude inspired everyone.
If your children seem bored with learning, perhaps they see it as the price of youth – and this is particularly the case when they realise that their parents never seem to put any effort into their own learning. On the other hand, if mum is learning a language, dad is learning how to grow bonsai plants, and grandad is doing a welding course, this is a family where learning is prized – and the younger members will see that learning is a life-long reality. Encourage parents to share their learning with their children, even if it is as simple as learning how to make better scones or how to send a text message, and they might see the importance of learning.
Reading is a vital part of education, but it is also an essential aspect of daily life. If we want to be well-informed about what is happening around us, it is essential that we read. It might be the instructions on a bottle of medicine, the details about last week's Grand Final, or the reasons for the recent rates hike in your Shire, but if we cannot read, we suffer. Not all parents enjoy reading; indeed, not all of them can pretend to be literate at all. However, it is the challenged parents whose help we need most in this area, because they are living testaments to the challenges of not being able to read. If we can encourage these people to see the value of reading, it might make a real difference to the literacy of future generations. Surely schools can be more proactive in helping illiterate or semi-literate adults overcome their deficiency.
It has been said the only time some children have unstructured playtime is during recess. Their lunch times are devoted to team work, student activities, organised training and so on, and their after-school time is a series of highly structured training sessions. Less emphasis on some of these activities and a bit longer playing in the mud or socialising with friends might reduce the tension in the life of our young people.
A final thought: please urge all parents to come along to parent-teacher conferences, so that they can understand the educational progress of their children. If this means running sessions at more convenient times, or making them less like sheep-dips where the parents are herded into cold halls and told that they have 10 minutes per teacher, then give this some thought. We often blame parents for their non-attendance; I wonder whether we examine our own role in making these events such a scary event.
Parents are a very important part of the educational program. Let us keep trying to involve them, never giving up just because the challenge is formidable. After all, if we were looking for an easy way of life, would we have taken up teaching in the first place?


Julien Clerc, biography photography and wallpaper.
Julien Clerc, from his true name Paul-Alain Leclerc, was born on October 4, 1947 in Paris. He receives the education of a son of good family and as of age the six years he takes courses of piano, they are however only a few years later than he is discovered a true passion by playing the tubes heard with the radio. Its meeting with Maurice Vallet and Etienne Ground-Gil in the middle of the Sixties is determining and Julien any more but does not dream to go up on scenes. In 1968 it records its first album which opens the doors of the artistic world to him. It is pointed out and been to engage to hold one of the principal roles of the musical "Hair".
This role brings the recognition of the public to him and Julien takes again his career solo. During the Sixties ten it records an album per annum and all meet success. With the Eighties and the revival of the music in France, the French singers are less à.la.mode and they must provide an irreproachable work to be followed by the public, this is why Julien is done rarer, but each new album is a pearl. Of "Loves me" in 1984 with the impossible to circumvent tube "Mélissa" with "Double childhood" in 2005, Julien proves that it is the quality and the talent which make last a singer.

Males and females may make distinctly different contributions to parental care. In cichlid fishes, females typically care for embryos while males guard territories. Parent-offspring contact may enhance transmission of beneficial microbes. Microbial sharing between group members is a potential mechanism for the evolution of social behavior (Lombardo 2007). Parental care is unusual among teleost (bony) fishes, but is ubiquitous among the cichlid fishes, and convict cichlids (Archocentrus nigrofaciatus) exhibit biparental care. We (1) quantified the parental behavior of males and females to determine whether they differed in amount or type of physical contact with their offspring; (2) collected samples of parental slime coats, embryos, and fry to compare the microbes associated with each, comparing samples from subsets of broods receiving parental care to others where parental contact was prevented. Females touched embryos significantly more often than males, but physical contact with fry is much less common and initiated by fry rather than parents. To date, molecular data support our prediction that fry receiving parental care bear microbes more similar to female vs. male parents, and to parents vs. siblings that did not receive care. Assuming this trend continues in subsequent samples, we conclude that parents are an important source of microbial inocula and that female contact during immobile developmental stages is especially important for microbial transmission.

It used to be that the big players in the computer hardware, software, and services industries promoted the Internet and its business related possibilities constantly. While these promotions greatly helped increase awareness of the Internet, they also intimidated small to medium sized business, swaying them away from building an Internet presence due to the perception of high development and maintenance costs.
Global Presence is commited to showing its clients the easy, affordable, and still highly effective side of the Internet. Developing a Web Presence does not have to involve hundreds of thousands of dollars, and you don't have to build an e-commerce site that leaves your company responsible for retaining, encrypting, and transfering sensitive credit or personal information.
Developing a company's Web Presence used to be a "nice to have". Now it is a "must have" and it's easier than you may believe.
A well designed Web Site can greatly increase public knowledge of a company, display and describe the products and services they deliver, and ultimately increase revenues with minor, if any, alterations to current business processes.
While it may not be essential for your company to sell its product/services over the Internet, it is essential that they be showcased.

More than 43 million smartphones are predicted to be in use in the UK by the year's end, performing integral roles in our work and home lives, and privy to an unfathomably large library of sensitive information. Together, they represent a treasure trove for criminals. But a few simple steps are all it takes to keep the majority of this information safe and secure.
Nick Dawson, strategy director for Samsung Knox – the mobile phone developer's next-generation security platform – says there are myriad ways to attack a business across any device and at any level, but one of the simplest and most common is to trick somebody into clicking a malicious link.
"Education is important, and increasingly so," says Mr Dawson. Typically, he says, the people in the executive office are given the most leeway when it comes to unsafe behaviour and restrictions on what they can access on a work phone. In reality, though, they are also often the ones who can put a company's most sensitive information at risk.
While the odd bad employee may compromise a system intentionally, "the most dangerous are the people who are just unaware they are doing something dangerous", says Mr Dawson. It is essential to drill in proper precautions about data security, for instance spotting dubious links and sites, and how to combat phishing attacks.
At the back end, though, you cannot operate without a reliable security system and an IT team that have the resources they need to keep the whole organisation safe.


Dejazmach Belay Zeleke (በላይ ዘለቀ ) an Ethiopian and Omar Muktar ( عمر المختار ) a Libyan, fought successfully against the expansion of Fascism in the African continent.
Belaye was born in 1896 in Bichena district in Gojjam province of Ethiopia. 1896 is a historical and symbolical year for all Africans, a year the King of Kings of Ethiopia Menlik II won the war in Adwa and stopped the African Scramble led by the Italian Army from Eritrean colony.
Omar Mukhtar was born in Benghazi, Libya 1862 in mist of the new effervescence Muhammad Ibn Ali s-Sanussiy Islamic movement in Libya. Sanussiy established a powerful religious movement from Walad Sidi Abdalla tribe tracing his descent from Fatimah, the daughter of Mohammed. Sanussiy's took over Libya and start resistance against Ottoman occupation. The New insurgency against Fascism after Italian victory over the Turks was led by Omar Mukhtar. Mukhtar , The Elected One, led this highly closed movement of Sanussiy which become the bases of Islamic resistance against the African Scramble in Sahara and fought the French in Chad and the Italian in the North.
3. It was in the War of Tripolitaniais that the future founder of modern Turkey, Mustafa Kemal (Atatürk) showed his performance and distinguished himself as a great leader.
6. It was the war of Tripolitania which gave the birth of the Omar Muktar on the mountains of Jabal al-Akhdar in Cyrenaica .
7. It was after Tripolitania the destiny of Ethiopia's Belay Zeleke was sealed by the following fascist attack of his country in 1934 announcing the WWII.
Italy made her first victory against the the Ottoman Turks since the great defeat with Ethiopia in 1896. Turkey never able to reorganize itself since coming out of the War of Crimea against Russia. Italy used her Ascari Eritrean soldiers giving the last blow to the Ottoman Empire which occupied the known world for over 700 years(1299 to 1923) . Furthermore, Italy from this victory against the once strong Ottoman Empire starts having ambition to rebuild Rome as in the past. It was Tripolitania that the 2nd trumpet was blown against Abyssinia. Mussolini started preparing for a long drown in East African invasion by preparing over 60 thousand thousands Eritrean / Somalian Ascari as an indigenous soldiers from East Africa. They were enrolled in the Corps of Colonial TroopsRegio Corpo di Truppe Coloniali. Ascari troops played an important role in the conquest of the various colonial possessions of the Kingdom of Italy, further organized as a full garrison in war and internal security forces in time of peace in the short lived East African Italian Empire. They were prepared mainly were employed against the Omar Mukhtar's resistance in Libya and Belay's rebellion in Ethiopia .
After the defeat of the previous Turkish rulers of the coast of Tripolitania and Cyrenaica had been occupied, Omar al Mukhtar organized the resistance of the Islamic Senussi orders . He successfully led a fierce guerrilla war against the Italian occupiers in the mountains of Jabal al-Akhdar in Cyrenaica up unto his capture and execution in 1931, which marked the end of the Libyan war and the beginning of the Italian east African adventure against Belaye Zeleke for 5 years in the Nile region.
Belay reached to maturation and he was a man of 40 when the Italian bombarded Ethiopia after killing over 200, 000 civilians Cyrenaica and Tripolitania, but in Ethiopia they used chlorine gas killing over 1 .5 million Ethiopians. In 1936 war , the Ethiopians front was forced to retreat by sophisticated Italian war machine prepared to revenge the 1896 European defeat using poisonous gas . A a bloody battle was fought in Tembien in Tigray, and Maichew in Wollo which cost a lot of lives in both sides . Mostly the Eritrean Ascari and Ethiopians scored the highest victims.
Italy's revenge on Ethiopia was to use its own people the Eritreans against herself . This was done by preparing over 60,000 Ascaris led by veterans of 1896 African war where 5,000 Eritrean Ascaris were killed. This methodology used by the Italian fascists in its East and north African Champagne against Belay Zeleke's troops and earlier against Omar Muktar in Libya. A best way to reduce the fascist victims and letting the Africans to kill one another and eventually reduce the population of occupied territories was the Mussolines master plan agisnt the Abyssinias in Eritrea and Ethiopia.
King of Kings Haile Selassie left the country to go to Europe for a demand to stop the genocide of his people by the fascist regime of Mussolini, presenting his case in front of the League without any success.
The internal rebellion was organized and led by Ethiopia patriots especially that of Belay Zeleke . His insurgency in Gojjam killed many fascist soldiers even capture a general. He stopped the Italian troops to cross the Nile and occupy is definitively. His rebellion in the region of Gojjam block the Italian from crossing the the Nile region successfully.
"Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un." ("To God we belong and to Him we shall return.").
The death of Omar Mukhtar is glorious since he died in the hand of his enemies, but that of Belay Zeleke was shamefully and brutally executed by the order of his own Emperor after being imprisoned. The principal reason was the fear of the emperor to his rebellion if he was left as a governor of his liberated region of Gojjam and Eastern Wello the land of his mother, rather he was demoted as a ruler of a smaller district in Gojjam which he contested . In history of Ethiopia there was no king who left his people in war time and went to exile and came back to power, except the Negus . The king of kings Tewoderos died fighting the British in 1868 in Mekedla, and the King of Kings Yohanus IV died fighting the Dervish in Metema. The second ruler who shamefully abandoned Ethiopia to the dictatorial regime of Melese is Mengistue Haile Mariam today lamenting in exile in Zimbabwe. The post war true power of Ethiopia belonged to Belay according to the Ethiopian legacy a hero defeating the enemy always was coroneted as a king. The king himself came through the liberated territory of Gojjam with the help of the British and the support of Belaye Zeleke whom he met in Debere Marcos the capital his liberated region Gojjam in 1941. But Emperor later corrected the error committed by the court and visited Gojjam, compensated the heroes of the land and let the peasantry live free of tax.
In his hanging Belay Zeleke regretted that he did not die in hand of his enemy. In the following three decades his region revolted and fought three wars and become ungovernable to the last days of the Emperor.


if a user does this.
This solution seems very error prone to me.
What should happen when you specify an option to be a default one, like -G docker ?
Then you would not allow options before the command.
All I can check now is if the default changed, which tells me they used the option.
I think we should do multiple parse.
and after do one parse for daemon only.
But that is just a complication of not using the command daemon. We have a few weeks to simpify the code, then you are stuck with it forever.
Why can't we do "docker daemon" now?
+1 for docker daemon. If we rewrite the code for the general flags, it will be mostly wasted effort since we'd need to migrate the daemon-related flags to CmdDaemon anyway.
This means existing installs will continue to work, but print a log message if they use -d or --daemon.
@rhatdan: can you put a deprecated notice, so that we can remove any mention of -d in 1.0.2 or 1.1.0?
I can change the log message to say that -d/--daemon is depracated and will be removed in a future release.
+1 to the change, however, you still need to update cli.md and presumably there are other docs that mention it - oh there'll be a stack of distro/stuff to ping.
tcp://host:port, unix:///path/to/socket, fd://* or fd://socketfd.
Enable CORS headers in the remote API. Default is false.
Enable daemon mode. Default is false.
Path to use as the root of the Docker runtime. Default is `/var/lib/docker`.
Same for other default references in the page.
Disable Docker's addition of iptables rules. Default is true.
Set the containers network mtu. Default is `1500`.
Enable selinux support. Default is false.
For specific examples please see the man page for the specific Docker command.
Two uses of "specific" remove/replace one.
on docker.io source material and internal work.
@crosbymichael @vieux do you guys want this? I do.
Makes a lot of sense to me. It clearly separates out the concerns of client and server.
I can work it again, if it has a chance of upstreaming.
I believe a better long term solution would be to remove the -d options and add a daemon command.
This would make the handling of options the same for all use cases.
I have asked a couple of new guys coming to my team to look into it, unless someone else is working on it. I took a quick look and my original patches are way out of data at this point.
i am seeing merge conflicts in the code?
Yes this patch set needs to be rewritten. The patch no longer applies. I don't have time to rework it now, but am trying to get others to do it. If you want to take a stab, go for it.
Ok, since this is not able to be merged and it's not exactly clear whether this is something that we should have in docker it maybe better to discuss this in an issue before rebasing and rewriting this PR. Sorry for the long response.
Well I think it is something we should definitely be in docker. I just don't have the time to rewrite the patch set. The current split causes man pages and option handling to be buggy and not easy to understand when to use certain options. IE A lot of options are only valid for use with the -d option. Changing this to daemon would clear this up.


Because the summer time season approaches, we're all finding ourselves about to prepare to celebrate a properly-deserved summer time vacation. Many occasions we approach the holiday with reckless abandon, abandoning our traditional diet routines and workout workouts.
Vacation time is frequently regarded as the easiest method to relax, and refresh before requiring to mind back to work. But wait, how can a person maintain their fitness during vacation?
Who not have a quality vacation? Vacationing is the perfect method to relax, and spent a calming time with family and buddies. It's very simple to eat a lot of barbecues, and revel in drinks with no need of wondering what's going to occur to our physiques whenever we return home. However, you should take vacationing in stride, and try everything moderately, especially eating.
You should avoid any kind of overeating, or eating meals which are of poor dietary value. Typically, you can easily realise why we become so lethargic during a holiday or trip. Exactly the same kind of principle must be fully put on the quantity of alcohol consumed. When you have certainly earned the authority to enjoy adult beverages during vacation, getting loaded every evening won't hurt your waistline, however your liver.
Many people take a look at vacation time is really a time for you to veg out, and never consider exercise. However, taking a whole week removed from daily routines, especially individuals involving high activity, may cause significant issues for your health. Even when there's no gym around the corner, you may still create a significant workout, by hiking the shore, going kayaking, and taking lengthy walks to savor the truly amazing outdoors. Imagine substituting a regular session around the treadmill by other pursuits that leave exactly the same results.
Consider using the whole family along to workout, to savor the holiday within the outside atmosphere. While it doesn't need to happen every single day, remaining active is an integral part of maintaining routine, whilst on holiday. When you are more active, you'll keep your fitness and then return to the routine, when you arrive home.
It doesn't matter of the vacationing around the beaches of Hawaii, or becoming lost around the Vegas strip. There's activity around every vacation place that may include finding out how to surf, taking towards the course, or finding a workout class in a local gym.
While many of these activities work nicely during the summer time, how about taking your trip in the winter months. You will find just like lots of things to do throughout the wintertime, as with the summer time. Think about making a little gymnasium within your accommodation, and perform calisthenics, push-ups along with other workouts.
Wherever you vacation, avoid high cuisine every evening each week. Minimize the quantity of food you take in, while increasing the amount of exercise, and you'll fit better to your clothing, while returning to your normal routine when the vacation is finished.

When Hurry Met Sally
By Amy Alkon
I planned a cross-country trip to introduce my girlfriend of five months to my family. She just sprang on me that she wants my family to meet "all of" her, which includes her 9-year-old daughter. My family knows she has a child, and I really enjoy her daughter, but I'm really not ready to introduce both of them. It would suggest that I'm taking on the role of a father, that she's important to me, that I'm ready to care for her, and that they should accept her as part of my life. I'm okay with their meeting the daughter later if our relationship progresses, but it's still so new that we haven't even had our first big argument yet. Is it okay for me to first want to love the woman and decide whether she's the one? Is it a warning sign that there are already issues regarding her child?
— Dating A Package
It would be clear you were in the wrong place if you'd spent the first date brimming with child-loathing: "Kids require a total commitment for 18 years — or maybe 13, if you can get them to run away as teenagers."
But it's perfectly reasonable to want to be called baby for a while before you commit to having one, and especially one at the soon-to-be-sullen age of 9 who already calls some other guy daddy. Ironically, it's you, the single, childless guy who's taking the more responsible, parental approach: waiting to see whether the relationship has legs before you start acting like you're all a family, which could end badly. Kids need stability. Ideally, "Who's your stepdaddy?" isn't a question a little girl should have to answer while standing by the revolving door outside the men's department.
Your girlfriend's apparent attempt to leverage your affection for her into a Very Brady Vacation could be a straight-out power play or a fear-driven test to see whether you're up to quasi-daddyhood. Think hard about the day-to-day details of being with a woman with a kid, like how her daughter will ultimately come first and how her presence will change the relationship dynamics. (You can't just tie a kid to a parking meter and make it up to her by taking her to pee in somebody's bushes after lunch.)
If, for the right woman, the tradeoffs wouldn't be too much for you, reassure your girlfriend of that, and then lay out the path to a relationship that works for you (more of a get-to-know-you stroll than a get-to-know-you freeway chase). If that timetable doesn't work for her, well, there's got to be a door there somewhere. But the fact that you have self-knowledge and the integrity to be unwilling to rush things suggests that she'd be prudent to see whether there's something between you — that is, besides an anonymous call to Child Services by someone making serious accusations: adults around her wearing Crocs with socks and not letting her wear makeup like all the other fourth-grade girls.
Wail Watching
My girlfriend cries quite easily — over being sick, work getting frustrating, or even our evening plans going awry. I feel the crying makes a small problem bigger, as everything becomes all about her emotions and not the problem. I try to comfort her, but when she starts crying, it's very hard to talk or reach her at all.
— Daunted
If you can't stop the rain, you might just make the best of a bad situation and position your girlfriend over your Slip'N Slide. As for why she's so often inconsolable, it may be because her tears are, in part, a cry for more attention from you. Holding back on giving it, like those parents who let their babies scream their little lungs out all night long, is exactly what you shouldn't do, according to "the dependency paradox." Social psychologist Brooke C. Feeney, who coined the term, found that in a committed relationship, the more a person feels they can count on their partner to be responsive to their calls for comforting and support the more independent that person can be. So, for three weeks, try being much more affectionate and caring — and not just when she's crying. Maybe even give yourself a quota of three out-of-the-blue shows of affection per day. When she does cry, don't try to "reach" her, except to hold her in your arms and let her sob into your shirt. Postpone any discussion till the storm subsides, tempting as it is to get right in there all guy-like and solve things — taking her, weeping, to Home Depot and calling over a salesperson: "'Scuse me, sir…got anything to fix this leak?"

network, including regional political commitments and actions, collaboration mechanisms on marine and coastal resources,and sustainable financing.
Ms Elizabeth Mohammed joins the CRFM Secretariat as Programme Manager, Research and Resource Assessment with effect from 01 October 2013.
She received a Master of Philosophy Degree in Zoology (focus on fish biology; ageing, reproductive studies) from UWI and completed graduate courses in fisheries management and development, quantitative analysis of fisheries and ecological modeling at the University of British Columbia. She joins the CRFM Secretariat with a mix of scientific, administrative, managerial and technical skills and over fifteen years experience in national and regional fisheries research, national fisheries policy development and implementation.
Ms Mohammed began her career in fisheries at the Fisheries Division, Ministry of Food Production, Trinidad and Tobago as Fisheries Officer with responsibility for assessment and management related research on the four-winged flyingfish and coastal pelagic species and later moved on to manage the Division's research unit. Between 2008 and 2010 she was the Director of Fisheries (Acting) and participated actively in the activities of the CRFM Forum and Executive Committee. Over the last five years she held the position of Senior Fisheries Officer, where her very extensive portfolio included provision of technical guidance to the Division's research programme, development and implementation of fisheries policies, review of the national fisheries legislation, provision of administrative and technical support to the directorate and senior officials in the Ministry, chairing the Division's committee on matters related to the International Convention for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas, representation of the Division on national Committees related to fisheries and the environment and serving as focal point to regional projects (the ACP Fish II Programme and CLME Project) as well as the regional working group on recreational fisheries.
Thus far, her contribution to regional fisheries research includes: reconstruction of historical fisheries catch and effort data for five countries in the southeastern Caribbean, conducted as a Graduate Student Research Assistant under the Sea Around Us Project implemented by the UBC Fisheries Centre; analysis of conditions and trends in Caribbean fisheries as part of a team working on the Caribbean Sea Ecosystem Assessment; development of a preliminary ecosystem model for the Lesser Antilles pelagic sub-ecosystem, provision of scientific advice on the ecosystem impacts of fishing and delivery of training on development and use of the ecosystem modelas Ecosystem Modeling Consultant with the LAPE Project of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations; and analysis of recreational fisheries in the eastern Caribbean as Consultant to the CRFM.
Much of the research conducted by Ms Mohammed is of direct relevance to the ecosystem approach to fisheries management. She aims to contribute meaningfully to the advancement of fisheries assessment and management efforts in the Caribbean region, through the application of holistic, innovative and participatory approaches, that give due regard to the challenges faced by national fisheries authorities and the need for integration of fisheries into the broader issue of coastal zone management. In her portfolio with the CRFM Ms Mohammed is responsible for the fisheries and related research and resource assessment to provide information for planning and decision-making, including, inter alia: assessment of commercially important fisheries and aquaculture of the CRFM Member States. She is also responsible for biological, ecological, social, economic, environmental and climate change related research based on fishery assessment and management needs or on specific requests from CRFM Member States.
The Caribbean Regional Fisheries Mechanism (CRFM) recently launched a public awareness campaign supporting ratification of the Caribbean Community Common Fisheries Policy (CCCFP), a regional treaty on conservation, management and sustainable utilisation of the region's fisheries resources.
Mr. Thor Asgeirsson has joined the staff of the CRFM secretariat as an International Fisheries Expert forthe period July - December 2013, on sabbatical from the United Nations University–Fisheries Training Programme in Iceland. Mr. Asgeirsson is a marine ecologist by training and is the Deputy Director of the United Nations University Fisheries Training Programme (UNU-FTP) which is hosted by the Marine Research Institute in Iceland. He comes with vast experience in teaching, international fisheries cooperation development and marine research and has since 1999 lead the training of fisheries professionals from developing countries through his work at the UNU-FTP in addition to working as a consultant for international development agencies.
The CRFM and UNU-FTP have had a formal working relationship since 2006 through MOU. Thirteen fisheries officers, including 9 women, from 9 CRFM Member States have been trained in the 6 month fisheries training programme in Iceland since 2007. Three more will join the UNU-FTP in September 2013. In addition, the CRFM and the UNU-FTP in collaboration with local universities (UWI and University of Belize) have developed and delivered five regional short courses in various areas of fisheries for fisheries department staff since 2009.
Mr. Asgeirsson main tasks and objectives during his tour of duty at the CRFM will be to assist in conducting a training need assessment in the fisheries administrations in the CRFM Member States, and to develop future cooperative projects between the United Nations University System and the CRFM to further support the development and management of aquaculture and fisheries in the Caribbean.
The assignment of Mr. Asgeirsson to the CRFM is made possible through the generous contribution of the UNU-FTP under an MOU with the CRFM Secretariat.

The Bostonians (Henry James)
19th century American novel depicting the conflict between passionate female friendship and heteronormativity.
LHMP #151 The History Project 1998 Improper Bostonians
This book is a glossy, photo-filled companion volume to a museum exhibit on lesbian and gay history in Boston, for a fairly broad definition of those terms. Due to this connection with a museum exhibit, there is a natural focus on material objects, accompanied by a relative minimum of explanatory commentary. The exhibit emphasized the importance of making a historic connection for modern visitors--a "usable history".
LHMP #137m Faderman 1981 Surpassing the Love of Men II.A.4 Boston Marriage
If one had any doubts about the common perception of the phenomenon of unmarried women forming stable, long-term partnerships in the later 19th century in America, those doubts could be settled by the existence of the term "Boston marriage" for such partnerships. Unlike earlier Romantic Friendships, which often had to work around the marriage of one or both parties to a man, the women in Boston marriages were normally unmarried and independent, either through inheritance or a career.
LHMP #112i Castle 2003 The Literature of Lesbianism: A Historical Anthology from Ariosto to Stonewall Part 9: 19th Century (fourth quarter)
The main themes by male authors in this set of texts include original poems in the classical Greek style with a relatively neutral portrayal of lesbians, and the continuing depiction of decadent lesbian eroticism, with an additional subgroup involving the frustration of author-insertion characters who desire lesbians. We also get an example of the "queer tragic triangle" in which a man and woman compete for the affections of a woman (with the man, of course, winning).
Lesbian Historic Motif Project: #48c - Donoghue 2010 Inseparable: Desire Between Women in Literature - Chapter 3
While the Inseparable motif sometimes employs a male character to bridge the practical logistics of forming a female couple, it is more natural for a triangle of this sort to frame the man and woman as rivals for their shared object of desire. Sappho's fragment 31 encapsulates the envy of a woman for the man who has the attention of the woman she loves. And in contrast to the common motif of-two men competing for a woman's love, when one of the rivals is a woman there is always an awareness that the playing field is badly uneven.

S&P 500, Nasdaq end at records after upbeat business surveys
in Breaking News, Stock Market
Stock Markets8 hours ago (Aug 21, 2020 05:45PM ET)
(C) Reuters. FILE PHOTO: The Wall Street sign is pictured at the New York Stock exchange (NYSE) in the Manhattan borough of New York City
By Noel Randewich
(Reuters) – The S&P 500 and Nasdaq closed at record highs on Friday, with both lifted by Apple after data pointed to some pockets of strength in the U.S. economy.
U.S. business activity snapped back to the highest since early 2019 in August, according to IHS Markit surveys, as companies in both manufacturing and services sectors saw a resurgence in new orders.
Another report showed U.S. home sales rose at a record pace for a second straight month in July and home prices hit all-time highs.
The unexpectedly sharp increases in Markit's indexes extend a pattern of choppy U.S. economic data this week – including weekly jobless claims – that paint a picture of a fitful recovery from the COVID-19 recession.
"It's not surprising to see a pickup in manufacturing as the economy has started to reopen, even though pockets of the country have pulled back on their reopenings," said Lindsey Bell, chief investment strategist at Ally Invest. "It's an encouraging sign and it supports the upside we have seen in the markets."
Apple Inc (O:AAPL) rallied over 5% as its market value continued to swell after the most valuable publicly listed company in the world crossed the $2 trillion milestone this week. The iPhone maker boosted the S&P 500 and Nasdaq more than any other company on Friday.
Bets that technology-focused companies including Apple and Amazon.com (O:AMZN) will emerge stronger from the pandemic set the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq on track to close out the week higher.
On Tuesday, the S&P 500 recouped all its losses caused by the coronavirus-driven slump and joined the Nasdaq in scaling new peaks. The Dow is still 6% below its all-time high in February.
Investors also worry about a stalemate in talks between House Democrats and the White House over the next coronavirus aid bill as about 28 million Americans continued to collect unemployment checks.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI) rose 0.69% to end at 27,930.33 points, while the S&P 500 (SPX) gained 0.34% to 3,397.16.
The Nasdaq Composite (IXIC) climbed 0.42% to 11,311.80.
For the week, the Dow was near unchanged, the S&P 500 rose 0.7% and the Nasdaq added 2.7%.
"There is a cult of buying out there and selling is considered a fool's errand. That's a very temporary condition," warned Mike Zigmont, head of trading and research at Harvest Volatility Management in New York.
During Friday's session, the S&P 500 information technology index (SPLRCT) jumped 1.2% and industrials (SPLRCI) rose 0.35%. The two were the strongest sectors.
Tesla (O:TSLA) jumped 2.4% after surging past the $2,000 a share mark on Thursday for the first time, extending its rally ahead of an upcoming share split.
Deere & Co (N:DE) rose 4.4% after the world's largest farm equipment maker raised its full-year earnings forecast.
On U.S. exchanges, 8.4 billion shares changed hands, compared with the 9.6 billion average for the last 20 sessions.
Declining issues outnumbered advancing ones on the NYSE by a 1.88-to-1 ratio; on Nasdaq, a 2.04-to-1 ratio favored decliners.
The S&P 500 posted 27 new 52-week highs and no new lows; the Nasdaq Composite recorded 56 new highs and 30 new lows.

Biography – BOULTON, GEORGE STRANGE – Volume IX (1861-1870) – Dictionary of Canadian Biography
BOULTON, GEORGE STRANGE, lawyer, militia officer, public servant, and politician; b. 11 Sept. 1797 at Greenbush, near Albany, N.Y., third son of D'Arcy Boulton* and Elizabeth Forster; m. in 1824 Elizabeth Boulton (d. 1836) by whom he had three children, and in 1840 Anna Maria Berk, née Walton, of Schenectady, N.Y.; d. 13 Feb. 1869 at Cobourg, Ont.
The Boulton family came to Upper Canada about 1800 and George Strange Boulton attended John Strachan's School at Cornwall. When the family settled in York (Toronto) about 1807, he was one of the first pupils enrolled at the Home District Grammar School of the Reverend George Okill Stuart. He was admitted to the bar in 1818 and began practice in Port Hope. About 1824 Boulton moved to Cobourg upon his appointment as registrar of Durham County, a post he held until his death.
Boulton had served during the War of 1812, at the age of 15, and at the outbreak of the rebellion in 1837 he hastened to Toronto to offer his services as a militia officer to Sir Francis Bond Head*. For many years he was colonel of the 4th militia district of Upper Canada.
In politics George Boulton was described as "remarkable for his adherence to the conservative cause – which he never once failed to uphold to the day of his death." He was first elected to the House of Assembly for Durham in 1824, but his election was declared void in 1825 and he did not contest the subsequent by-election. Boulton was successful in his second attempt to enter the assembly, in 1830, and continued to represent Durham until 1841. During the election of that year one of the supporters of his successful opponent, John Tucker Williams, was killed. Boulton denied that he had "hired Bullies or Loafers," declaring that Williams' supporters had come to the polls armed and his own supporters had taken up sticks in self-defence. Yet Boulton, a kindly man who was noted for his benevolence, especially to the poor, arranged a subscription for the family of the man killed.
In the assembly, Boulton supported his brother, Attorney General Henry John Boulton, in voting for the expulsions in the early 1830s of William Lyon Mackenzie, and continued to vote against Mackenzie even after his brother was dismissed as attorney general over the issue. In 1834 Boulton opposed a clause in the bill to incorporate the town of York which proposed voting by secret ballot in municipal elections. Largely because of his speech the "vote by ballot," which he considered "a mean and despicable mode of voting . . . that tended to encourage deception . . . falsehood and misrepresentation," was rejected by the assembly.
In June 1847 Boulton was appointed to the Legislative Council. A member until confederation, he took his duties in the council seriously and spoke with effect on a subject when strongly moved. During debate on amendments to the Land Act in 1847, Boulton supported Robert Baldwin Sullivan*'s proposal to make available low-priced or free lands to encourage settlement by immigrants.
A devoted member of the Church of England and a member of the Church Society from its inception in 1843, Boulton was also a commissioner of the Cobourg Town Trust from 1858 until his death. Secure socially and financially, he took his private and public position as his due. Unlike his elder brother, Henry John, George Boulton excited neither envy nor fear. He could be a forceful and influential debater, but he seems to have attended to his parliamentary duties more in the sense of noblesse oblige than from any motive of personal ambition or gain.

There's no denying that casual photography has seen a phenomenal rise in popularity in recent years, thanks wholly to the proliferation of smartphones. Small as they are, camera sensors in smartphones keep getting better and better. Lenovo has just jumped on the bandwagon and released the purposeful VIBE Shot – a photo-centric Android smartphone that will appeal to photography enthusiasts. This follows its other purpose-built product – the Lenovo A7000, with Dolby Atmos.
Launched at Mobile World Congress (MWC 2015) back in March, the VIBE Shot takes a shot at where the Nokia Lumia and Samsung has succeeded – make smartphones that look and operate like dedicated cameras.
Looks-wise, the VIBE Shot resembles a typical generic Android smartphone from the front. It gets a 5-inch FHD IPS display protected by Gorilla Glass.
Turn it to the back however, the styling is more akin to a point-and-shoot camera, touting a high-res 16MP f/2.2 main shooter with OIS and tri-colour LED flash. The tri-colour LED flash is a first-of-its-kind in the world. The aluminium body is slim and light (measures just 7.9mm thin), and is pretty nice to hold in the hand.
Up front you get an 8MP wide-angle and that should make you selfie-lovers absolutely happy.
Let's talk about the camera a little bit. What's great, and what you've seen on the Lumia 1020 is the physical camera button on the top of the device. It's a two-step mechanism that triggers auto-focus and shutter. Additionally there's a physical slider that enables you to move from Smart (Auto) to Pro shooting mode.
There's a Shoot Companion that intelligently analyses an environment and selects the best shooting mode and settings for you.
If you need more control over your shots, switch to Pro mode and you'll be able to control white balance, ISO, shutter speed, exposure compensation and more.
The 16MP Samsung-sourced sensor isn't the biggest you'll find in a smartphone these days and no, you don't have to dump your DSLR. Having said that, it's more than good enough for general shots, including those tricky low-light conditions and when shooting moving objects.
As a smartphone, the VIBE Shot packs an octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 chip with 3GB RAM. Storage is standard at 32GB, with an option to expand via microSD (up to 128GB). The same processor you've seen on the OPPO R1x, OPPO R7 Plus and Mi 4i.
It's a dual-SIM, dual-LTE device and also comes with a large 3,000mAh battery.
The VIBE Shot runs Android 5.1 Lollipop with VIBE UI on top and will come in three colours – Carmine Red and Graphite Grey.
Available from today, the VIBE Shot retails at RM1,399.
For a limited time and whilst stocks last, every purchase of the VIBE Shot will come with a free VIBE Xtension Selfie Flash (worth RM99).

Q: Sass: Generate a root class in nested using `class.&` I don't understand why the code below generates .test a.test {color: black;}
instead expected a.test {color: black;}?
I thought it's an opposite method to &.a which generates just test.a (in this case).
.test {
  width: 10px;
  a#{&} {
    color: black;
  }
}

A: I just found a solution to style a.test with class a nested in .test.
There is a special sass directive @at-root which allows to emit a style block at root of the list.
// Sass
.test {
  @at-root a#{&} {color: blue;}
}

// Generated CSS
a.test {color: blue;}
