Frontiers of Freedom Action
Frontiers of Freedom, founded in 1995 by U.S. Senator Malcolm Wallop, is an educational foundation whose mission is to promote the principles of individual freedom, peace through strength, limited government, free enterprise, free markets, and traditional American values as found in the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence.
1. The most basic moral obligation of the federal government is to defend America, which requires military, economic and moral preparation and strength.
2. Property rights and economic freedom are the fertile soil in which all other rights grow and thrive. The environment is best protected and preserved where free markets thrive, capitalism is robust, and property rights are respected.
3. The Constitution's enumerated and limited powers, checks and balances, federalism, separation of powers, and guarantee of basic rights are the foundation of America's freedom.
4. Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness and each of the rights guaranteed in the Constitution are necessary to the foundation of freedom – including the right to bear arms and to not be deprived of property without just compensation.
5. The courts have a constitutional duty to faithfully and strictly interpret the law and the Constitution and may not invent or create new law.
6. Justice is the equal treatment of all individuals regardless of ethnicity or religion. Fabricating group rights undermines individual freedom and civil rights.
7. Taxes may be legitimately imposed only to the extent necessary to pay for the essential and constitutionally permitted activities of government. To tax more than this is a form of tyranny and extortion.
8. Government mandates and regulations too often exceed constitutional authority, waste resources, erode freedom, diminish property rights, and produce harmful unintended consequences.
9. To remove sound science from public policy is legislative and regulatory malpractice. To employ junk science in public policy is unethical and irresponsible.
10. Civic virtue and basic standards decency are essential to maintaining America's economic strength, military might, and freedom. Parents and families, not government, are responsible to rear and educate their children.
President Ronald W. Reagan
"Leadership, hard work, experience, loyalty -– that's what Malcolm Wallop and Frontiers of Freedom are all about."
President George H.W. Bush
"Frontiers of Freedom does excellent work on a host of issues, but most importantly on national security and defense."
Vice President Richard B. Cheney
"Frontiers of Freedom is an active, intelligent, and needed presence in the national debate. Washington is a city with many short-term perspectives and narrow interests competing for attention. Frontiers of Freedom offers something different – a perspective shaped by the broad interests of the nation, and by principles that are relevant in every time. By advocating a strong defense, limited government, and the protection of individual rights and doing so in a way that is factual, honest and well argued, Frontiers of Freedom is making a tremendous contribution."
Donald Rumsfeld, Secretary of Defense
"With experts here like my friend, Malcolm Wallop, George Landrith and the folks at Frontiers of Freedom, what am I doing here?" (Joking at a Frontiers' Freedom Briefing on missile defense in the United States Capitol.)
Senator Orrin Hatch
"I commend Frontiers of Freedom for its good work … promoting legal reform and fighting against eco-terrorism."
Senator James Inhofe
"I am proud of Frontiers of Freedom for their effective work in educating leaders and the American people. Keep up the good work."
Senator Jon Kyl
"I want to thank my friends Malcolm and George and Frontiers of Freedom for so effectively and powerfully promoting free markets, liberty and national security. Over the years, they have consistently proven themselves a reliable source for insightful and fact-based analysis of the day's most important and difficult issues. They provide a voice of reason that can be trusted."
Senator Zell Miller
"I am proud to stand with Malcolm Wallop, George Landrith, and all of those who, like the man this award is named for – Ronald Reagan – are committed to maintaining America's freedom… Frontiers of Freedom is a voice that can be trusted."
Ximena Barreto, Director of Communications & Grassroots Strategy
Ximena Barreto, Director of Communications and Grassroots Strategy for Frontiers of Freedom, is a nationally recognized spokesperson and ambassador for America and its constitutional system of limited government and maximizing individual freedom. A legal immigrant from Colombia and now a proud citizen of the United States, Barreto has drawn staunch opposition from the Left for being a Latina willing to support and defend the Constitution of the United States, free enterprise, and the concept that America is an exceptional nation with unparalleled freedom and opportunity.
Growing up in Colombia during the turmoil of the drug wars, Barreto's life was deeply impacted at a young age. She was in kindergarten when her father was murdered by the notorious drug lord Pablo Escobar — who was targeting law enforcement officials with bounties on their heads. A few months after losing her father, two of her aunts were also murdered. Against this backdrop, she has an extra measure of appreciation for the rights and freedoms that she now enjoys as a US citizen. Whether it is the right of free speech, the right to peaceably assemble, the right to bear arms, or any other the important constitutional protections Americans have historically enjoyed, she sees the sharp contrast between the freedom and opportunity in America and the harsh oppression that exists in so much of the world. As a result, she is not only a strong believer in American Exceptionalism, but a proud defender and advocate.
As a legal immigrant who played by the rules, Barreto appreciates the importance of rigorous enforcement of immigration laws, careful and thorough vetting, and the critically important role that preserving our national sovereignty plays in our nation's survival. She is an example of the American success story. Due to her participation in various conservative political campaigns, she fostered a large following in social media, as well as among ethnic conservatives. She is known for her work ethic, creativity, and love of America. She served as the Director of Communications for the Trump Campaign in California. Barreto was also appointed to the US Department of Health and Human Services as Deputy Director of Communications and Specialty Media.

Senator Malcolm Wallop Biography
Malcolm Wallop is a descendent of a pioneer family from Big Horn, Wyoming and is the proud father of four children.
Malcolm Wallop
Both in and out of public office, Senator Wallop has been an outspoken conservative commentator and activist, working on such issues as tax reform, federal deregulation, energy policy, private property rights, and national defense. In 1978, Senator Wallop was the first elected official to propose a space based missile defense system, a program that later became part of the Strategic Defense Initiative.
Elected to the Senate in 1976, Senator Wallop held his seat for eighteen years, retiring in 1994. During his tenure, Senator Wallop served on numerous committees, including Energy and Natural Resources, Finance, Small Business, Armed Services and the Select Committee on Intelligence. He was also the first non-lawyer in U.S. Senate history to serve on the Judiciary Committee. As the ranking Republican member of the Energy and Natural Resources Committee from 1990 to 1994, Senator Wallop was an outspoken advocate of the multiple economic uses of federal lands and development of domestic energy supplies of coal, oil and natural gas.
Senator Wallop has a long and distinguished record of legislative achievements to mark his three terms in Congress. In 1981, Congress enacted his legislation to cut inheritance and gift taxes, an effort hailed as one of the major legislative achievements of the decade in tax reform. He has long been regarded as one of the foremost authorities on Western water law, and demonstrated his early commitment to halting federal encroachment into state affairs by successfully pushing for adoption of the so-called "Wallop amendment" to the 1980 Clean Water Act, barring federal usurpation of state control of water. He authored the Sunset of the Carter Era Windfall Profits Tax, the first sunsetted tax in history. He recognized early on the need to prevent Federal 'taking' of private property by sponsoring the 1977 Wallop Amendment to the Surface Mining Control Act. This directed the Federal Government to compensate, through purchase or exchange, owners of mineral rights whose right to mine had been denied by federal regulation of Alluvial Valley Floors.
For 16 of his 18 years in the Senate, Senator Wallop served on the Senate Finance Committee. There his major work was in energy taxes and incentives and international trade. He made several trips to Geneva for the General Agreement on Tariff and Trade (GATT) talks and later on the WTO. He also traveled to Britain, France, Belgium and Germany on trade related missions. In the Pacific Rim, he had sessions of both a private and public nature to Japan, Korea, Taiwan, and Hong Kong. He represented the American trona industry in both Europe and the Pacific. Known as a staunch free trade proponent, his trips were generally structured to meet industrial, financial, and government interests on issues of tariff barrier reductions.
One of the most important achievements of the Senator's career was passage of his Energy Policy Act of 1992. This sweeping legislative initiative set forth an energy conservation and production strategy that not only furthers our national security interests, but has helped create jobs and lessened our dependence on foreign energy markets. It restructured the whole permitting process for nuclear power plants making it both more economically and environmentally sound.
Throughout the eighties Senator Wallop served on both the Senate Arms Control Observer group and the Committee on Security and Cooperation in Europe — also known as the Helsinki Commission. His extensive travel for these responsibilities took him to the Soviet Union, Eastern and Western Europe. The issues of arms control in SALT II, INF, START I and START II were among the most complex international relations issues of the era. The human rights issues and western pressure surrounding them led ultimately to the liberation of the Baltics and Eastern Europe and finally to the CSCE treaty.
More recently, Senator Wallop led the congressional charge against the "War on the West", the Clinton Administration's effort to "colonize" western states through increased federal regulations and encroachment on states' rights. Wallop was successful in beating back the Administration's assault on Western mining, grazing, and water rights, viewing the attack as a harbinger of broader efforts by the federal government to limit economic development and the rights of states and individuals.
Senator Wallop has long been a vehement opponent of unfunded mandates and established his own "Red Tape Award" in 1993, a less than coveted honor which exposed abusive federal regulators awarding their bureaucracies with a Statue of Liberty bound head to toe in red tape.
The Senator is the author of the 1984 Wallop-Breaux Sport Fishing Restoration Act, a program that raises revenue for boating safety and fish habitat conservation through user fees collected on motor boat fuel and fishing tackle. Wallop-Breaux is unique not only because it is a user fee which directly benefits those who pay it, but also because the role of the federal government in the program is minimal. In 1994 Wallop-Breaux generated over $170 million to state fish and game agencies.
An early supporter of volunteerism, Senator Wallop's legislation establishing the Congressional Award program was approved by Congress in 1979. The Congressional Award honors the nation's youth for community service and personal achievements. It is privately funded and is the only award given in the name of Congress.
A staunch advocate of a strong defense, Senator Wallop is considered one of the nation's most knowledgeable experts on defense policy. He and Dr. Angelo Codevilla co-authored The Arms Control Delusion, a provocative critique of the arms control process which argued that arms agreements with the former Soviet Union only served to undermine America's military strength while reinforcing Soviet Strategic capacity. Senator Wallop has written numerous articles on defense and foreign policy. In addition to addressing the Oxford Union, he has lectured extensively at a number of America's most distinguished defense universities and academic institutions as well as in England, Belgium and France. He is currently a Senior Fellow with the Heritage Foundation where he writes and speaks on issues of foreign policy and national defense.
The Senator has also written for a number of distinguished publications, including the Strategic Review, National Review, the Notre Dame Law School Journal, the Detroit College Law Review, Policy Review, Orbis, National Interest, the American Spectator and Insight along with editorials for the Wall Street Journal, Washington Times, Washington Post, USA Today and New York Times, among others. He has appeared on such TV programs as FoxNEWS' The O'Reilly Factor, Nightline, the Today Show, CBS Morning News, and McNeil-Lehrer. His radio appearances include G. Gordon Liddy, Armstrong Williams, Larry King and Jim Bohanan. and Michael Reagan.
He has also made major addresses to such groups as the American Petroleum Institute, Burlington Resources, CATO Institute, Heritage Foundation, Edison Electric Institute, Interstate National Gas Association, The Hans Seidel Stiftung in Munich, Center for Strategic and International Studies, MIT and Hillsdale College.
He is the recipient of a legion of honors, among them the American Conservative Union's John Ashbrook Award and Ronald Reagan Award, the National Energy Resources Organization's National Leadership Award, the Center for Security Policy's "Keeper of the Flame Award," the Congressional Award's Leadership Award, and the Fund for American Studies' Congressional Scholarship Award, and Citizens for a Sound Economy's Jefferson Award, along with consistently being honored throughout his congressional career with such annual honors as NFIB's Guardian of Small Business, the National Taxpayer Union's Taxpayers' Friend Award and Watchdog of the Treasury, Inc.'s Golden Bulldog Award. He has also received the highest award of the American League of Anglers and Boaters for his work establishing the Wallop-Breaux Sport Fishing fund and the National Cattlemen's Association and Public Lands Council for his work to protect the West from federal intrusion.
The Senator, who has built a reputation as a tireless promoter of individual freedom and small government, now chairs Frontiers of Freedom, a non-profit organization he established in January of 1995 immediately after retiring from the Senate. In its first year, Frontiers of Freedom established itself as a public policy organization with an edge. Its agenda includes preservation of property rights and reform of the Endangered Species Act, the privatization of Social Security, protection of civil liberties and the defeat of such big government initiatives as the antiterrorism bill and the national ID card legislation, and reform of the Food and Drug Administration. In 1995, he established Frontiers of Freedom designed to study and research issues pertaining to limited government and Constitutional freedoms.
Wallop has retired from the boards of Hubbell, Inc., El Paso Energy Company, and Sheridan State Bank.
In February of 1996, Steve Forbes asked Senator Wallop to be the General Chairman and Executive Director of his presidential bid. The immediate affect of his arrival led to specific changes in strategy and tactics which, in turn, led to primary victories in both Delaware and Arizona.
Graduating from Yale University in 1954 with a Bachelor of Arts degree, Senator Wallop served in the US Army as a First Lieutenant from 1955 to 1957 and was a member of the Wyoming Legislature from 1969 to 1976. His extensive business career includes management of the Wyoming ranch holdings he owns and establishment of a feedlot. He jointly ventured oil and gas development projects in Nebraska, Montana and Wyoming. Senator Wallop was an active real estate developer and investor. He retired to be a Wyoming rancher, businessman, and international consultant.

Landrith Calls On RNC Chairwoman for "Campaign Closer"
One of the most unforgettable moments in American history! Remember this? WATCH AGAIN & CATCH THE GLOW! https://youtu.be/nxpxpY7IEwo (1min & 28 secs.)
EVEN THE MEDIA ADMITTED TRUMP TOUCHED THE HEART OF AMERICA. VOTE! VOTE! VOTE! https://youtu.be/LsuPSqeFL6Q (1min & 13secs)
JUMPIN JOE MANCHIN SHOWS WHY ALL DEMOCRATIC MEMBERS OF CONGRESS ARE LIBERAL EXTREMISTS: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=asNARZGYxB4 (15 secs.)
Letter to Chairwoman McDaniel:
Dear Chairwoman McDaniel,
As a nationwide poll released Thursday by McLaughlin Associates shows: If Republicans develop a strong national message in the final week of the campaign, then an historic victory is at hand.
In persuading undecideds and motivating pro-Trump voters that national message must bring home the tremendous accomplishments of President Trump, but also emphasize the great danger to further progress posed by the slavish adherence of democratic Members of Congress to their extremist liberal leadership.
We believe, Chairwoman McDaniel, that you are uniquely positioned to assist the party in achieving both ends. Please let us explain.
We believe nothing will help accomplish the objective stated above and do more to assist Republican candidates then reminding the public that shining moment in American history earlier this year when President Trump delivered perhaps the greatest and most moving State of the Union address in modern history.
At the time, the White House captured in a brief video (only 1 minute 43 seconds) the drama and eloquence of President Trump on that night. From his words about America, to the pictures of the American heroes in the gallery, to that final photo of the North Korean defector holding aloft his crutches, it is impossible to watch this video and not to be moved or hold back tears.
Almost as affecting is a second White House video, again a very brief one, that captures the stunned reaction of the media as more than 80% of Americans reported that they believed President Trump was unifying the country.
We now have both videos posted on our website and we invite you to watch again what no less than 45.6 million Americans saw that night.
But we also have a third video on our page that we ask you watch — a video that completes what we believe is the final winning message to the American people in the 2018 election, a video that sends a grave warning to voters.
The video is one of West Virginia Democrat Joe Manchin starting to get up and then sitting right back down during President Trump's address as Democrats refused to stand and applaud at unifying moments during the speech — moments like the tribute to family survivors of crime victims or celebration of the economic gains by African-Americans and Hispanics.
That picture of the man we call "Jumpin' Joe Manchin" underscores the great Democratic Party dilemma in this election. There are no moderate Democratic candidates left in the party.
Over and over again the President has used the words liberal and extremist to describe Democratic candidates for office. He's done so for a reason.
Voting for any Democrat in Congress is a vote to put liberal extremists like Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer can charge.
Chairwoman McDaniel, the RNC has the resources to get out two important messages.
First, help President Donald Trump keep making America great again.
Second, STOP Pelosi and STOP Schumer and STOP the Liberal Extremists.
We urge you to consider in the closing week of the campaign a national TV buy that puts again president Trump's extraordinary State of the Union moment before the American people, but also reminds them that all Democratic Members of Congress are "Jumpin' Joe Manchins" and a vote for any Democrat is a vote for a far Left wing agenda that will throw into reverse all the great accomplishment of President Trump's first two years in office.

UNITED NATIONS troops and civilian staff in Somalia have tightened security for a possible military strike against one of the country's main warlords, General Mohammed Farah Aideed, who yesterday rejected UN Security Council accusations that his supporters ambushed and mutilated UN soldiers last weekend.
The airport in the capital Mogadishu was sealed off last night and closed to non-military flights from midnight.
As tension increased in the Somali capital, the US yesterday moved the helicopter assault ship Wasp and three other navy ships with 2,200 marines on board to break away from a joint exercise with Kuwait and stand by at the mouth of the Gulf for possible orders to go to Somalia. The marines have served in Somalia.
The Pentagon said it could take a week to move the task force through the Indian Ocean to Somalia because the three amphibious vessels, Nashville, Barnstable County, and El Paso, were much slower than the Wasp.
UN staff in Mogadishu, who are living under military protection, were briefed yesterday on evacuation plans if fighting breaks out between UN troops and supporters of Gen Aideed.
Alliance (SNA) he chairs for the ambushing and killing of 23 Pakistani UN troops in Mogadishu. At least 26 Somalis also died.
At a press conference yesterday, which he opened for the first time with the Muslim cry of "Allah Akbar", Gen Aideed said the Pakistanis provoked an angry response by occupying and damaging his radio station. But the UN says he had agreed the previous day to a weapons search of the building.
Although Aideed supporters had distributed leaflets demanding the departure of the UN troops, he said he wanted the l8,300-strong 24-nation Unosom force to stay.
"We don't wish to create difficulties for them, and we feel a special responsibility to preserve their safety … But it's not the business of the UN or anybody else to appoint or remove leaders," he said.
He also called on the UN to send an "independent and impartial" team to establish who responsible for the killings, and said he would accept their findings even if it meant his own arrest.
The US has sent extra tanks to Unosom, and four sophisticated AC-130 Specter aircraft armed with air-to-surface missiles designed to lock on to targets using computer.
The planes are on stand-by in Djibouti.
The military build-up in Mogadishu has also included the transfer of an undisclosed number of French troops from Baidoa, 159 miles north-west of the capital. This has aroused fears among relief agencies in Baidoa that they may have to leave because of the lack of military security there.
UN troops in Mogadishu have come under sniper fire every day this week. On Thursday, troops guarding the former American embassy compound, which now houses the UN military and humanitarian headquarters, came under attack. A Somali shopkeeper was killed when UN guards returned fire.
Gen Aideed believes the growing tension stems from a UN wish to discredit him following a recent peace conference between former rival clans in the central town of Galkaio. The conference agreed that fighting between the SNA and the Somali Salvation Democratic Front (SSDF), led by Abdullahi Yusuf, should stop.
The truce gave Gen Aideed the exalted role of a peacemaker at a time when he is still not trusted by many expatriates, and is regarded by many Somalis as a warmonger who must be removed if peace is to be achieved.
The potential ferocity of a clash between UN troops and Gen Aideed was exposed during last Saturday's attack, which continued for seven hours in one part of the city. Despite his repeated claim yesterday that he has disarmed his troops and has no militia, the clash showed how much ammunition Gen Aideed's supporters really have. Eyewitnesses in Mogadishu have seen mounted guns moving around the city after dark in the past three days.
"The gunmen will fight till they die. There are many many of them, and they are united for Aideed," said a friend.

10 New York Campuses to Help Establish Village in Haiti
by The Haitian Times Sep. 26, 2017 Apr. 01, 2021
BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) — Ten campuses in New York's public university system are part of a project to establish a sustainable village and learning community in Haiti.
The State University of New York said Monday the campuses will work with five not-for-profit organizations under an $800,000 grant from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation.
SUNY says the goal is to develop educational, economic and social programs, resources and other needed services on 40 acres (16 hectares) of land donated by a Nassau Community College professor emeritus. Each campus will bring a specific expertise, such as public administration, public health and performing arts.
The University at Buffalo, which will contribute social work expertise, says the project also will provide hands-on training and education for SUNY students.

the moile with the clocks in his window
(person) by Ground Control Tue Jun 27 2000 at 1:18:35
A woman from the Midwest was visiting New York City for the first time. She was curious about Judaism (there being no Jews in the small town she called home) so she took a walk through a Jewish part of the city.
Well, while she was there she noticed that her watch had broken. She looked around for a place to get it repaired. All of the signs were in Yiddish, but she saw a store with a bunch of clocks and watches in the window, so she went in.
She said to the distinguished old man behind the counter, "Could you fix my watch for me, please?"
The man said "I don't fix watches. I'm a moile; I perform circumcisions."
The lady said, "Then why do you have all of those clocks and watches in your store window?"
The moile said, "And what should I have in my window, then?"
Moile Quizro's phone smells like cigarettes and Obsession for Men (gay porn version) Riding the clock The House With a Clock in Its Walls
And the clock waits so patiently on your song Spinning shapes like a song out of order. In the dark she can see fireflies. Yiddish Jewish

Harry Potter "Can we find all this in London?"
Hagrid* "If yeh know where to go"
2. Harry Potter on Location in London Town takes place every Saturday at 2.30 pm. Meet Richard outside the river exit of EmbankmentTube.
3. Come on Muggles, "you should be celebrating this happy, happy day" – we're heading into Qulity Quidditch Supplies territory. It's 62442 time.
4. Hagrid: "If yeh know where to go" – or to put that another way, it all comes down to the guiding.
"If yeh know where to go" Where to go on this wicked walking tour that burns with a hard gem-like flame. Burn with an h. g.-like flame because it's HP. And because it's the mysterious old City of London. And because betwixt and between the film locations we hit the sweet spots – the very best of quirky, peculiar, curious, lost old London. It's all very Harry Potter and Co. Runs every Sunday at 2.30 pm. Meet Richard outside exit 3 of BankTube (by the war memorial in front of the Royal Exchange). N.B. there's a £3 charge for kids as this one's for all ages. It's the normal £10 for adults or £8 for concs.
Ah, film locations! Where the ephemeral image on the screen turns into reality! Underfoot and right before our very eyes. And what's right before our very eyes on this one is the Westminster locations that riveted you in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, The Prisoner of Azkaban, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. It's a walk – a quest even – for fans of all ages. And there's a bonus. Well, lots of bonuses. Because the weave also includes lots of great sights – and sites – and the sights behind the sites – for those who are just along for the ride, along to keep a fan company. All led by the Prince of Potter guides – he of the spookily perfect name – actor Richard Walker. N.B. there's a £3 charge for kids as this one's for all ages. It's the normal £10 for adults or £8 for concs. The walk ends in the Potter-perfect little alleyway that's just round the corner from Leicester Square Tube Stop. Want to get an idea of what a Harry Potter in London walk is like – and see Richard in action? Watch the video of our Harry Potter Film Locations in the City walk.
The Harry Potter on Location in London Town walk takes place every Saturday at 2.30 pm. Meet Richard just outside the river exit of EmbankmentTube.
If you can't make one or more of the regularly scheduled, just-turn-up, public Harry Potter Tours why not think about booking one as a private walk? If you go private you can have a Harry Potter tour – or any other London Walk– on a day and at a time that suits your convenience. We'll tailor it to your requirements. And – always with private walks – we go to great lengths to make sure the guide-walker(s) "fit" is well-nigh perfect. Ring Fiona or Noel on 020 7624 3978 or email us at london@walks.com and we'll set it up and make it happen for you. Makes a great birthday party outing.
A private London Walk makes a very special birthday or Christmas present for a friend or family member – well, why not consider the gift of a private tour with a world-class guide. Merchandise schmerchandise (gift wrapped or not) – but giving someone an experience, now that's special. Memories make us rich.


Twitter – Lil Xan announced he and his girlfriend Annie Smith were expecting a child earlier this month. But according to some super sleuths online, the entire pregnancy is a hoax.
After Smith shared a nine-week ultrasound to her YouTube channel last week, fans started comparing them to images found through a Google search. The photo Xan and Smith revealed to the world appears to match a Google image of a nine-week ultrasound.
In the clip, Xan says he "cried" when he saw the image for the first time.
However, several fans were quick to call them out for the alleged "fake" pregnancy and headed to Twitter to air them out.


Being truly alive is something we forget amidst in life..
How life changes. How we let it change us. How it wipes our identity slowly and gradually. How we let it take charge. How we become a different human being altogether. How we become someone we are not. How we keep wondering what happened? How we feel helpless that it's not the same. How we cry inside our hearts and wish to god he brings back everything we lost. How we promise to him that we won't let it slip away.
But time never comes back. Does it?
I am seven; I am traveling with my parents and my little brother in our sweet little Maruti 800. I am peeping outside the window, to feel the wind outside. My parents keep warning me. I listen to them for a while, but get tempted to feel the strong wind on my face, while it forcibly closes my eye lashes, makes it difficult to breathe… I still love it. I enjoy it, in its natural form, crude and true. I laugh and laugh more.
I am eight. I am running, playing chor police with my cousins in the courtyard. I never wear chappals. The stones in the yard never hurt my feet. They mud never spoils me. The sweat never bothers me. My mom calls my name, asks to buy some milk from the nearby store. I gladly agree. I wink at my best friend. We start running. It's a race. Who reaches first and eats a mouthful of raw rice from the gunny bag of the little store with a broken roof is the question. Laughter never leaves our faces.
I am nine. My mom is asking what I am going to wear to the birthday party I am about to go. I announce happily, that I am going to wear the same dress I wore the previous day! My mom shouts back, informs me I could wear the new dress my aunt has brought for me. But I don't budge. The dress I want to wear is the one I love the most. I don't care if it's not dry cleaned. I don't wonder if anybody would notice me repeating it. I merrily wear it and join the party.
I am 13. I and my friends are returning from our classes. We are hungry. We enter a joint. Buy Wada pav, hog on it. Crack jokes on each other. Tease a few teachers with secret names. Discuss the current gossip in school. What we eat is not the question. We fill our stomach because we are hungry, never forgetting to enjoy every bit of the food and the gossip of course.
Today though I am mature enough to know how to live, I still can't figure out why I cannot enjoy the wind on my face anymore, why I can never walk without chappals. The stones suddenly are too hurtful. Why I am so careful about what I wear, why I worry so much before eating anything! Do we all lose the true sense of living life to the fullest when we grow up? I guess so.


These same factors affect the longevity of your facelift.
Visible signs of aging can greatly impact how we feel about ourselves and how others see us. If you are bothered by the loss of youthful contours in the mid face, jaw line and neck, a face lift may be right for you. In general, a face lift corrects and repositions sagging facial skin, fat, and muscles, and removes excess skin to restore a more youthful, rested, and natural appearance. This procedure is often combined with a neck lift for improvements under the chin. The surgery is performed under general anesthesia.
Tumescent facelift is a novel technique practiced by Dr. Kim that utilizes a fluid containing vasoconstrictors and anesthetic infiltrated beneath the skin to aid the surgical dissection, decrease bleeding, bruising, and discomfort post-operatively. Many patients elect to combine their facelift procedure with other facial rejuvenation procedures such as fat grafting, brow lift, eyelid surgery, and/or rhinoplasty. Schedule your cosmetic consultation today to find out which procedures are most appropriate for your goals.

Q: Resolve classes of maven dependencies in eclipse Consider the following dependency hierarchy:

Now I have maven-jibx-plugin in project D which generates the compiled classes in target/classes folder. But when I run my spring-boot project A the generated classes from project D could not be resolved.
Resolve dependencies from workspace is also checked from maven preferences of project A

A: To me it looks like Eclipse and Maven do not recognize project D as a related project.
There are two possible solutions:

*

*In Eclipse you can add project D as a dependent project to project A's build path. Go to the project's Properties dialog. Select Java Build Path and then switch to the  Projects tab. There you should add project D.

*Or alternatively you rely on Maven's dependency management. Therefore you have to add a dependency to project A's POM file. First add a <dependency> ( if not already done ) to the <dependencies> section. Now comes the important part! Maven can only resolve this dependency if you have installed the compiled maven artifact ( the jar file ) in your local maven repository. On the shell switch into project D's directory and then run mvn install
I hope that did the trick.

A: Have you tried adding generated sources folder as a source folder in eclipse? You can do this from eclipse (right click the generated sources or any folder in it > Build Path > Use as Source Folder) or you can use maven build helper plugin by adding something like below to your pom.xml
        <!-- MAVEN ADD GENERATED-SOURCES TO CLASSPATH -->
        <plugin>
            <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
            <artifactId>build-helper-maven-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>${maven.plugin.build-helper.version}</version>
            <executions>
                <execution>
                    <phase>generate-sources</phase>
                    <goals>
                        <goal>add-source</goal>

TIGERS THWARTED 4-3 IN OVERTIME
2019-20 SEASON GAME RECAP red deer rebels
Erin Schwab – Photo by: Randy Feere
Medicine Hat, AB — The Medicine Hat Tigers were unable to complete the comeback and fell 4-3 in overtime to the Red Deer Rebels on Saturday night.
Captain James Hamblin scored on a penalty shot in the third period to tie the game up 3-3 and send it to overtime but the Red Deer Rebels scored 38 seconds into extra time to steal the victory.
Early into the game, rookie forward Jaxsen Wiebe scored his first career WHL goal to give the Rebels a 1-0 lead that they held onto throughout the whole first frame.
In the second stanza, Elijah Brown and Bryan Lockner combined to set up Trevor Longo to score his first goal of the season. Shortly after Longo's goal, Brett Davis responded for the Rebels by netting his fourth goal of the season on the power play.
Midway through the period, Ryan Chyzowski won possession of the puck near the Tigers' blue line and raced down the ice to beat Rebels goaltender Ethan Anders and tie the game up at 2-2.
The stalemate was once again short-lived as Ethan Sakowich scored for the Rebels late in the frame while they were on the power play. The Tigers went to the dressing room trailing the Rebels 3-2 after 40 minutes of play.
The Tabbies were tenacious in the third period looking for the game tying goal. With less than half the frame left to play, the Tigers were awarded a penalty shot and Hamblin stepped up to take it. He beat Anders to score his third goal of the season and send the game into overtime.
Early into extra time, Chris Douglas scored the game winning goal for Red Deer. Tigers netminder Mads Søgaard stopped 17 of 21 shots faced while Anders turned aside 39 of the Tabbies' 42 shots.
The Tigers are now 4 -2-1-0 and they will host the Portland Winterhawks on Tuesday night at the Canalta Centre. Be YOUth Centre Medicine Hat will be in the CF Industries Community Corner and the game is scheduled to start at 7:00 PM. Tickets can be purchased in person at the Canalta Centre Box Office or online through Ticketmaster.

Rambo: The Force of Freedom debuted on April 14, 1986 as a five-part miniseries, and was renewed in September as a daily cartoon. Rambo was cancelled in December of the same year. Rambo was called in by General Trautman to lead the Force of Freedom in fighting Cobra S.A.V.A.G.E. – Specialist-Administrators of Vengeance, Anarchy and Global Extortion. There's no truth to the rumor that instead of yelling "Yo Joe!" when attacking the enemy, they yelled "Yo Adrian!" (Oops! Wrong Sylvester Stallone franchise).
Rambo: The Force of Freedom also spawned a toy line that outlasted the show itself.

President Reagan's first few months in office was anything but uneventful. Immediately after taking office, hostages were freed from Iran. Then there was the assassination attempt. This was followed by 2 major labor strikes in the summer of '81 – one of which, President Reagan got heavily involved in.
First was the Major League Baseball strike, which began on June 12. This was the first baseball strike I remember. There had been a strike in 1972, but I was way too young to know about that one. The strike in the 1981 season was pretty significant, as it lasted almost 2 months. That's a big chunk out of the season.
However, this strike did not affect my baseball viewing to badly. The Triple-A level did not go on strike. Being from Rhode Island, I got to see the Pawtucket Red Sox more often. I enjoyed watching them more than the Boston Red Sox, so it was pretty cool that I finally got to watch the Pawtucket Red Sox on television.
On July 31, 1981, a compromise was finally reached. Major League Baseball resumed on August 9 with the All-Star Game in Cleveland's Municipal stadium. Regular season games started the next day.
Since there was such a big gap in the season, a unique situation occurred. The owners decided to split the 1981 season into two halves, with the first-place teams from each half in each division (or a wild card team if the same club won both halves) meeting in a best-of-five divisional playoff series. The four survivors would then move on to the two best-of-five League Championship Series. It was the first time that Major League Baseball used a split-season format since 1892.
This format ended up screwing the Cincinnati Reds (National League West) and St. Louis Cardinals (National League East) as each failed to make the playoffs. This was despite the fact that they had the two best full-season records in the National League that season (and would have won their divisions under normal circumstances). St. Louis made up for it the next season by going on to win the 1982 World Series.
In the first round, the New York Yankees beat the Milwaukee Brewers (3 games to 2), the Oakland Athletics swept the Kansas City Royals (3 games to 0), the Montreal Expos beat the Philadelphia Phillies (3 games to 2), and the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Houston Astros (3 games to 2).
In the League Championships, the Yankees swept the A's (3 games to 0), and The Dodgers beat the Expos (3 games to 2).
And then the Dodgers won the World Series by beating the Yankees 4 games to 2.
As the Major League Baseball strike was coming to a conclusion, another one was starting up.

Real Madrid make Martin Odegaard future decision
by adminlivetipspro2 | Mar 25, 2021 | Non classé | 0 comments
March 25, 2021 21:05 GMT (UK), by Sri Aswin
Real Madrid won't entertain permanent Odegaard exit
Real Madrid won't entertain the permanent departure of Martin Odegaard when he returns from his short-term loan at Arsenal.
Odegaard managed less than 400 minutes with Los Blancos during the first half of the season under manager Zinedine Zidane.
Hence, he was loaned out to the Gunners in January and he has since evolved into a key player for the north London club.
Odegaard has only scored twice in 12 appearances, but he has played in the lead-up to several goals for the Gunners.
Mikel Arteta's side are exploring the prospect of keeping Odegaard next term, but Marca claims that they are unlikely to do so.
Los Blancos consider Odegaard as part of their future plans and won't entertain his permanent exit during the summer.
Furthermore, Odegaard is determined to prove himself with the Spanish champions, should he be assured with regular game time.
Odegaard twisted his ankle playing for Norway against Gibraltar last night, but he was part of the training group in Marbella today.

There's a new celebrity cat in the spotlight. Atchoum (French for sneezy ) is a Canadian kitty who lives near Montreal, Quebec. What making everyone so wild about this cat? The arresting soul-piercing stare and out of control furs and whiskers for starters. It's not his fault he looks weird and wild. He has a rare condition called hypertrichosis which makes his fur grow faster and fuller than normal. The growing legions of Atchoum Fans on Facebook and Instagram, are lapping it up and wanting more.
Atchoum is Hairy, Not Scary! His wild appearance is deceptive. His owner Nathalie Cote say he's sweet, friendly and just like any normal cat.
Atchoum is Happy and Healthy. Despite the hormonal condition of hypertrichosis causing rapid hair growth, Atchoum is otherwise healthy. His eyes are an intense shade of amber but are more wise than evil and not the "death stare" as widely reported.
Atchoum is still a kitten. He may look grizzled but is actually young. Atchoum turns one- year-old next month. Expect a big birthday party and maybe a new hair-do.

In the late 1830's Bellingen was literally a backwater known as Boat Harbour from where the precious red cedar was shipped down to the mouth of the Bellinger River in low draft sailing vessels.
With the felling of the forests by the timber getters, the farmers followed, laying the foundations of a strong agricultural industry.
Today Bellingen is a pretty village, nested in the Bellinger Valley and on the banks of the Bellinger River. It is an area of alternative life styles, farming and artisans. It has a diverse and relaxed character which suits the quaintness and beauty of the village with its many heritage buildings.

Obesity Australia and the Charles Perkins Centre
Obesity Australia, founded in 2011 has now joined with the Charles Perkins Centre, which will be responsible for the day-to-day operations of Obesity Australia. Obesity Australia remains in independent legal entity and will continue to be governed by the OA Board.
The Charles Perkins Centre's mission is a perfect fit with Obesity Australia, with its aims to ease the burden of obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular disease by translating the work of the University of Sydney into real-world solutions.
We hope that through this collaboration we can reach a wider audience on the issues and facts of obesity in Australia, create sustainability for the Obesity Australia organisation and work together to achieve greater outcomes.


The HIGH-TOOL model is an open source, high-level strategic assessment model for use by EU policy makers and policy analysts to assess economic, social and environmental impacts of transport policy measures. The model has two purposes. It can be applied to strategic assessment of transport policy options, and to support identification of policy options for further analyses by more detailed assessment instruments.
The HIGH-TOOL model was introduced successively during the project in order to facilitate the participation of users. Its development has been divided into three stages: prototype, pre-final version and final version.
The prototype version, completed in 2014 fulfilled following objectives: to establish a concrete basis for collecting comments and recommendations from the future users, and to allow the HIGH-TOOL partners to gain experiences in the modular tool development.
The pre-final version is a Java-based tool, running at NUTS-2 level, and allowed the analysis of a wider field of transport policies.
After an extensive testing and validation phase, the final model version was developed.
The model evolution process has been carried out under the involvement of the future users and was accompanied by a Scientific Advisory Board, made up of distinguished experts that represent model users and model developers.
Output indicators of the model are largely based on policy targets of the White Paper 2011, the Roadmap for moving to a low-carbon economy in 2050 and the requirements of the European Commission's Impact Assessment Guidelines. The HIGH-TOOL model was calibrated against the EU Reference Scenario 2013. The HIGH-TOOL database is closely linked to ETISplus.
A paper on the HIGH-TOOL model has recently been published by the SpringerOpen Journal of Shipping and Trade.
To obtain the HIGH-TOOL software, please register here.
The HIGH-TOOL project was awarded the "Deutscher Mobilitätspreis 2017" (German Mobility Award 2017). HIGH-TOOL was recognised as a flagship project that provides innovative digital solutions for the mobility of the future.

THE trend of full-time travel is alive and well, with more families taking their own gap year. Here's how they do it.
Ever thought of packing up the house, the kids and quitting your 9-5 in lure of something better? Have you dreamt of seeing sights, visiting countries and taking the time to immerse yourself and your family into a new country and culture without the thought of returning home?
As Kidspot reports, the trend of full-time travel is not a new concept but more families are now jumping on the bandwagon alongside gap year students, nomads and retirees.
Travelling as a family full-time poses a lot more challenges and hurdles, just ask these families.
Claire and her family (husband and two children aged 10 and 12) have always loved travelling and after returning from a short holiday they felt the need to plan something bigger.
With their eldest daughter 18 months away from beginning high school they felt their time was now.
This prompted the sale of their house and Clare's husband booking in his long service leave.
The family homeschool their children and are using the savings and salary to fund their trip. The proceeds from the sale of their house is tucked away for when they return to Australia.
The family, now four months into their year-long journey, have visited Vietnam, the Maldives, India, Sri Lanka and Thailand.
"If it is something you really want to do, if you can find a way, go for it. You'll never regret it," Clare tells Kidspot.
Robyn and Mark have three children aged 16, 12 and eight, and have been travelling full time since July 2017 with the plan to travel full time for 12 months.
They were motivated to experience a year of full time travel after realising that they had got stuck in a daily rut and wanted to get more out of life.
It may sound clichéd but that is exactly how Robyn and Mark felt, with their eldest child approaching graduating year, it really was now or never.
"Our chances of long-term family travel would become less and less. Kids would be grown and doing their own thing. We wanted a chance to show them as much as we could of the world while we could," Robyn tells Kidspot.
The family has funded their trip with a great result in the property market in Vancouver, which enabled them to sell their home, purchase a smaller one (which is currently rented out) and place their belongings in storage during their sojourn.
Budgeting was a big learning curve for the Perrin family and Robyn admits that while there was a "loose" budget in place when they started, the stress of keeping track of accommodation and food expenses for a family of five was starting to take its toll.
"Halfway through our trip we finally sat down and really checked how our budget was going," Robyn tells.
The Perrin family don't work remotely during their travels. Robyn, who works in education, has taken a year off, and Mark was able to put his business on hold for the year. This has meant they travel on a tight budget, mainly choosing Airbnb or hostels for their accommodation. But they feel that the benefits of travelling are certainly outweighing these adjustments.
"I'd say to any parent out there that may be considering full-time travel to go for it. Our kids have seen so much of the world. They have learned about different cultures, animals, currencies, modes of travel, history and so much more," Robyn adds.
Cody and JoEllen began their full-time travel journey in January 2018. They had moved from the United States to New Zealand for two years and explored a lot during that time, giving them a thirst for more.
A fortuitous search for a remote job led Cody to secure work with his former company that was not tied to a 9-5 office job. This meant the idea of travel got closer.
"Our main reasons for wanting to travel were to experience more of the world, to give our kids an opportunity to see that there is more than one way to do something, to learn to love people from all over, to learn about more cultures, to serve, and to grow closer as a family," JoEllen tells Kidspot.
The family considers themselves "slow travellers" as Cody is committed to working 25 hours per week as an IT Analyst and JoEllen runs three blogs, as well as working for an American makeup company — all of which she can do remotely so long as the internet connection is good.
As for financing their travels, the family tries to eat-in most days and tends to skip a lot of the touristy, expensive sights instead opting to experience the culture and place of each destination.
Their main costs are airfares, car rental, and accommodation however seeing as they don't own a home or cars, they don't have expenses back home to worry about.
They also offer services while travelling to help ease the costs such as providing images or pictures to an Airbnb host for a discount.
We're trading our warm beach days for cold charming city days and we're not mad about it. We're only in London for a few days so tell us your absolute must dos....ready, set, go!
Nathan and Marissa have been travelling for three years full time, with their daughter Hensley who is also three.
After struggling with infertility for quite some time, the couple was blessed with the arrival of their daughter and it sparked a mission of a life "Less Junk, More Journey", hence they decided to sell their home, purchase a camper and begin living and travelling together.
It is a decision they have never regretted.
The family shares their journey on their YouTube channel, which is now how 95 per cent of their income is generated. Nathan was working remotely but as their channel started to grow it was a great shift to make.
"We are having a blast creating amazing memories and spending a generous amount of family time together while travelling our beautiful country in our home on wheels. In the process, we decided to start filming our lives and created a YouTube channel in hopes of being helpful, encouraging, and inspirational to others who also want to live a life of "Less Junk, More Journey," the couple tells Kidspot.
The couple admits that travelling full-time is exactly as it sounds — you are a full-time traveller, full-time parent, full-time spouse and you have be aware of that and nurture it with the knowledge that out of it comes so much growth and possibility.
"The memories we are making and quality time we spend together has been incredible for our family. It is a bond that cannot be broken," they say.

Most significant ransomware attacks Ever

Learning cybersecurity? Wondering what are the most significant ransomware attacks ever? Then you are in the right place. Read our list of top worst attacks.
List of Most significant ransomware attacks Ever
WannaCry:
2. NotPetya:
3. BadRabbit:
On 12th of May 2017, an updated version of WannaCry ransomware called "WannaCrypt" encrypted the files of UK's NHS i.e. the National Health Service, telecom company Telefonica, and other high profile targets around the world.
After encrypting the files, it would demand a ransom of $300 in Bitcoins. And the files would not be decrypted without a decryption key.
However, even after paying the ransom, the attackers would not guarantee that the victim would receive a decryption key for their affected files.
Later on, researchers determined that WannaCry was made to exploit EternalBlue, a vulnerability which hackers obtained by hacking the NSA (National Security Agency).
The hacker's group called Shadow Brokers obtained the files from NSA and was able to perform such a massive attack which affected more than 30,000 organizations worldwide.
It was said to affect over 104 countries in the world. Later on, the stolen EternalBlue and other exploit code were made public by the Shadow Brokers.
The news of NotPetya first broke on 27 June 2017. It was when the power distributors in Ukraine and the Netherlands found hacking attacks in their systems.
Then the researchers quickly traced the attacks to Petya, ransomware which encrypts MSB (Master Boot Record).
These newer variants of ransomware were also using the same vulnerability as exploited by WannaCry.
Kaspersky Lab named the threat as "NotPetya" because it did not give the victims an option to recover their affected data.
Only a week before Halloween, the Kaspersky lab revealed that it had received some notifications of mass alerts of new ransomware which was affecting Ukrainian and Russian organizations.
Kaspersky finally identified the threat as BadRabbit. But unlike WannaCry and NotPetya, it didn't use EternalBlue to exploit its targets.
Instead, it used drive-by attacks – types of attacks in which once a vulnerability is spotted, the malware goes to infiltrate the system.
This was a small-scale operation it demanded 0.5 Bitcoins from only hundreds of victims.

A television icon returns tonight on ABC. The Office's awkwardly charming Jenna Fischer makes her triumphant comeback with a new high-concept comedy. Oh, the classic family sitcom starring John Goodman and Sara Gilbert is also revived. We forget the name. Also, the Baskets family leaves us (at least briefly), going out in a flaming match of a classic children's game.
Ok, the trailers aren't overly hopeful this broken-up couple living together for the kids will rise above its meh concept. However, it does feature two ultra-appealing leads in Jenna Fischer and Oliver Hudson and its creator, Emily Kapnek, was the mind behind the gleefully quirky Suburgatory, so it's worth at least a view.
The documentary series looks at labor leader and activist Dolores Huerta. Awesome!!
Admittedly, our excitement at the return of this classic '80s-into-'90s sitcom is tempered by its lead's obnoxious support for a certain man. Is that fair? She should know better and she's the one making a point of making sure we all know her politics is a central point of the Roseanne revival. Otherwise, its return on its ancestral home of ABC could still be entertaining, even if just to see what they do with the double-Becky, but it's hard to feel like it's what the constantly-on-fire world actually needs right now.
On the other end of the political spectrum, Australian comic Jim Jeffries had one of the most famous diatribes examining American gun culture, and when he's on a righteous roll, he can be one of the funniest humans on the planet. His hit-or-miss take on the faux news format The Jim Jeffries Show returns on Comedy Central.
The second part of Judd Apatow's documentary profile of legendary comedian Garry Shandling airs on HBO tonight.

Read New Legend of the Five Rings Fiction
#L5RLCG
Centuries ago, these walls stood defiant and ready for any onslaught. Now, years of unmoving stone crumbled beneath the weight of time, just like relentless waves had eroded the stone cliffs of Earthquake Fish Bay. Gazing upon the ruins, she could almost hear her brother Sukune as he'd told her in the depths of the Shinomen: "The Crab are the Wall, and that is the problem. If we remain unyielding, unwilling to change, then we will crumble."
– Robert Denton III, "Collapse"
Yasuki Oguri and the weather-witch Kudaka left the Watchtower of Sun's Shadow in "The Shadow of Glory" (2 MB) and journeyed as swiftly as the wind would allow to deliver a dire message to Hida Kisada, Champion of the Crab Clan. Their harrowing experiences defending the Kaiu Wall have led them to believe that the forces of the Shadowlands have grown more organized than ever, and the two fear that the hordes of goblins and skeletal warriors they've battled so far have been merely testing the Wall's defenses. The newly arrived commander of the watchtower, Hida Etsuji, will not request reinforcement, believing that he can earn glory for himself and the Crab when he achieves his inevitable great victory against the Shadowlands.
The armies of the Crab Clan are stretched thin, having suffered mounting casualties and dwindling supplies. At Oguri's request, Hida Kisada has sent his daughter, the greathammer-wielding warrior Hida O-Ushi, to shore up the watchtower's defenses until more units can be sent to that stretch of the Wall. But will O-Ushi's small band of loyal samurai be enough to hold the line?
Read the next chapter of the Legend of the Five Rings saga with "Collapse" (4 MB), a new short story by Robert Denton III. Stay tuned for more fictions coming soon to our website, and prepare your clan's defenses to survive a Shadowlands onslaught in Legend of the Five Rings: The Card Game...
Legend of the Five Rings is a Living Card Game® that invites players to journey to the mythical land of Rokugan.

Andrew Garfield: Profile of a social climber
By Kev Geoghegan
Entertainment reporter, BBC News
The Social Network, starring Andrew Garfield (r) has topped the US chart for two weeks
With a hot young cast that includes Justin Timberlake and Bafta rising star nominee Jessie Eisenberg, it is a credit to British actor Andrew Garfield that he makes his mark in hit movie The Social Network.
The account of Facebook's origins in the halls of Harvard University portrays the site's co-founder Eduardo Saverin as a loyal friend to creator Mark Zuckerberg, eventually squeezed out of the set up by Zuckerberg and flashy new associate, Napster-founder Sean Parker.
As his character sues his former best buddy, Garfield's performance as Saverin still manages to illicit something resembling sympathy from the audience.
"It could be said that he suffered from a lack of imagination, pride, jealousy and was trying to hold on to something and protect something that he didn't want to share - which was Mark," explains the 27-year-old.
"I think what's wonderful about the story is that people can walk away with differing feelings about each character. It's multi-perspective so you don't get one point of view.
Garfield talks about the challenge of becoming Spider-Man and fitting into the costume
"We just have different value systems as human beings and there are a great many different truths to one situation."
A major hurdle facing the film-makers, West Wing writer Aaron Sorkin and director David Fincher - the man behind Fight Club and Seven - was the lack of access to Zuckerberg himself.
Instead, the film is adapted from Ben Mezrich's 2009 book The Accidental Billionaires and, because of the various legal settlements addressed in the film, it left Garfield with scarce source material on which to base his own performance.
"I didn't have access to Eduardo at all and I still haven't, though I would love to, just to know how he is and whether I got it at all right in terms of my work," he says.
"Eduardo is not a public figure, so I had two photographs - one of him drunk and one of him sober."
Whatever Saverin makes of the performance, the film is doing big business in the US where it has topped the box office chart for two weeks.
Garfield was honoured for his work on Channel 4 drama Boy A in 2008
But until now, Garfield's face has remained relatively unknown outside of the UK - a fact surely set to change as he takes on the major role of Spider-Man in the forthcoming reboot of the hugely successful movie franchise.
Born in California but raised by an English mother and American father in Surrey, Garfield trained at the Central School of Speech & Drama in London and graduated in 2004.
His career began on the stage and, in 2007, he shared the the London Theatre Critics Circle Most Promising Newcomer Award with Sound of Music actress Connie Fisher.
The next year, he won widespread acclaim for his role in the Channel 4 drama Boy A, as a man released from prison after serving time for a murder he committed as a child.
Judges described his performance as "emotionally devastating" with "unexpected charm".
In 2009, he won more acclaim as Eddie Dunford, a young journalist tracking a child rapist and murderer in three-part thriller Red Riding.
This year, Garfield will also be seen opposite Keira Knightley and Carey Mulligan in the adaptation of Kazuo Ishiguro's 2005 novel Never Let Me Go.
Garfield, here in Never Let Me Go, will be Peter Parker in the new Spider-Man
But as young British actors surf a wave of popularity with Hollywood's casting agents, Garfield insists that he wants to stay focused on one job at a time.
"Oh man, if I was aware I was riding a crest of a wave, I'd lose my mind I think," he laughs, "I'd be worried about when I was going to fall off so I try not to think about it in that respect.
"I can admit and I can acknowledge about how lucky I've been to have been involved with the people and projects that I have until this point.
"There's no question about that, and I appreciate it greatly and I don't take it lightly."
Aside from his work in features, Garfield also stars in short films I'm Here by Spike Jonze and Air, by Australian poet and novelist Luke Davies.
"It's all about perspective and my perspective hasn't changed about these jobs, I had the same perspective as I had about my first theatre job or my first television job," says Garfield.
"It's all the same to me and I just follow what my heart tells me in terms of working.
"I try not to get caught up in any kind of status thing. I try to close my eyes to it," adds the actor.
The Social Network opens across the UK on Friday.

I have to remind myself that I am only minutes from the heart of Canada's largest city as our 16-foot red Prospector canoe glides effortlessly along one of the many quiet lagoons of Toronto Island Park.
The city workers' strike means the island ferries are idle and the hordes who would usually be crossing the harbour to picnic, laze on the beaches, skate, bike, toss a Frisbee or enjoy Centreville Amusement Park are elsewhere.
I've been to the islands before, but this is the first time I've travelled by canoe. Aboard are my wife and three young children.
During our journey, new vistas of the city and nature unfold around each corner. This could easily become a summer ritual for us, just as it is for Toronto residents Philip Krueger, 39, and Alison Brown, 35, who are out for their first paddle of the year around the islands.
There is so much to do with children: picnic at one of the many beaches, cast a fishing line, explore hidden paths and enjoy the quirky names on the boats moored at the Queen City Yacht Club.
Sea Sharp and Breaking Wind were among our favourites.
Krueger and Brown, who are expecting their first child, make five or six canoe trips every year, starting from Cherry Beach.
"In some ways, it's the start of summer for us," says Brown.
"We like to go through the canals. ... It's reminiscent of our childhood where we did a lot more camping in the outdoors, and yet it's in the city."
Brown grew up canoeing with her father in Algonquin Park and taking whitewater trips to rivers in Quebec. As a child, she rowed with Canadian canoeist, artist and documentary filmmaker Bill Mason.
Krueger built his own canoe – the one they are using today – as part of a high school shop project in Leaside. As they leave Ward's Island Beach and head around a rocky point toward the network of lagoons, the homemade canoe seems to almost disappear among the small waves.
There is defiance in the image. It suggests that something as gloriously simple as a canoe or kayak can stand tall and proud among the sailboats, powerboats and yachts that dot the Lake Ontario horizon.
It also conjures images of the aboriginal people and the voyageurs of early Canadian history.
Of course, this is not Algonquin Park, where the stillness of a lake can be shattered by one stroke of a paddle. We are, after all, in Toronto – and this is a busy waterway.
Laurie Jones, of the Toronto Island Canoe Club, points out there is a dramatic 10-kilometre network of lagoons, inaccessible by bikers and walkers. "It's an urban wilderness there," says Jones, who made childhood canoe trips to the islands from the Beach.
Jones is particularly fond of the area around Block House Bay within minutes of the island airport, a quiet sanctuary where lolling carp cruise and the night heron roams.
No, the Toronto Island Park isn't Algonquin or Killarney or Temagami. It is a destination in its own right, perfect for an annual family ritual.
Summer Rituals is a series of personal stories about seasonal traditions.

Q: How to prove that the subset of polynomials $A=\{\sum_{k=0}^n{a_kx^{2k}}:a_i\in\mathbb{R},n\in\mathbb{N} \}$ is dense in $C[0,1]$ I have
$$A=\left\{\sum_{k=0}^n{a_kx^{2k}}:a_i\in\mathbb{R},n\in\mathbb{N} \right\}$$
and I have to prove that A is dense in  $C[0,1]$ with respect to the supremum norm.
My efforts in trying to solve the problem:
I showed that the set of polynomials is dense in $C[0,1]$ by using Bernstein's polynomials, so if I can prove $A$ is dense in the set of polynomials I can conclude that A is dense in $C[0,1]$.
But trying to do so, I am in a dead end...any help?

A: Let $f\in C([0,1])$ and consider $g(x)=f(\sqrt{x})\in C([0,1])$. By Weierstrass approximation theorem, there is a sequence of polynomials such that $\|p_n-g\|_{\infty}\to 0$. This gives $\|p_n(x^2)-g(x^2)\|_{\infty}\to 0$, but $p_n(x^2)$ belongs to $A$ and $g(x^2)=f(x)$, so $A$ is dense in $C([0,1])$.

Home intruder expected to receive 14 years
Ray Kisonas
Feb 22, 2014 at 12:01 AM Feb 22, 2014 at 11:00 AM
A man reportedly involved in a violent home invasion in Milan two years ago that ended in the shooting death of his partner is expected to serve a minimum of 14 years in prison.
A man reportedly involved in a violent home invasion in Milan two years ago that ended in the shoot�ing death of his partner is ex�pected to serve a minimum of 14 years in pris�on.
Marquis R. Casey, 24, of Yp�silanti is in the Monroe County Jail awaiting sentencing for his role in the burglary where one of the victims, Robert Goupill, shot and killed Mr. Casey?s partner in crime, Jerald Ogden, 28, of Ypsilanti.
Mr. Goupill, who claimed self- defense, was tried and convicted of manslaughter be�cause he pursued the burglars through his neighborhood and opened fire. He is serving a 3��year sentence.
On the night of the burglary, the two men burst into the house on Anderson St. and tied up Mr. Goupill, his mother and his girlfriend. The two intrud�ers were armed and pointed their handguns at the victims and threatened them. Mr. Goupill also was pistolwhipped, according to court testimony.
After robbing the victims the two suspects fled the house. Mr. Goupill freed himself and ran after the two. He chased them about 200 yards throughout the neighborhood and fired a shotgun at them, killing Mr. Ogden. Mr. Casey fled the scene.
Although he and his family members were victims, Mr. Goupill, 51, eventually was charged criminally because it is illegal to pursue and kill someone even after a violent crime had been committed. He went to trial and a jury found him guilty. A judge sentenced him to serve a minimum of 43 months in prison. His earliest release date is December, 2016.
Mr. Casey, meanwhile, fled to Ohio following the home invasion in Milan. He was taken into custody there and served time in an Ohio prison on weapons charges, said Milan Police Chief Gerard Scherlinck. He was then extradited to Michigan.
In connection with the Goupill crime, Mr. Casey was charged with several felonies. He pleaded no contest to home invasion, first degree, and being a habitual offender, second offense. In exchange for the plea, charges of armed robbery and habitual offender, fourth offense, were dismissed.
On April 3 Monroe County Circuit Judge Michael A. Weipert is expected to sentence Mr. Casey to a minimum of 14 years in prison. The maximum could be up to 30 years, according to the Monroe County Prosecutor?s Office.
