What Are the Djinn?
Instead of Generous Genies, Djinns Are Dangerous Demons

Stephen Wagner
In the western world, we have grown up with the concept of demons and devils—the evil beings of the spirit world, according to traditional Christian beliefs. Other religions around the world have their spirit beings, too, of course. In Islam, the djinn are a race of spirit beings that can be good or evil. (Djinn, or jinn, is the origin of the more familiar word "genie" in English.)
As we learned in the article "Exorcism is Islam," Muslims believe that evil djinn can sometimes possess human beings, as some Christians believe demons can possess people.
How Were Djinn Created?
Verses of the Quran and the Hadiths show unambiguously that the djinns were created of fire without smoke. According to Ibn Abbas, the expression "without smoke" means "end of the flame." Other scientists think that this expression means the purest of fires. What's important to know, quite simply, is that that the djinn were created of fire and therefore have a constitution completely different from ours.
The djinn were created before man. While the djinn were made of fire, man was made of clay and angels created of light.
In this way, the djinn are invisible. So if they are invisible, how do we know they exist? Many things exist that our eyes do not see, but their effects are perceptible, such as the air and electrical current.
Also, this word was reported by Allah himself, and Allah does not lie.
Where Do Djinn Live?
The djinn prefer to live in places not inhabited by man, such as deserts and wastelands. Some among them live in the dirty places (dustbins) and others live among man. The djinn live in these dirty places in order to eat the remainders of foods thrown away by people. Also, certain djinn live in cemeteries and ruins.
Can Djinn Change Forms?
The djinn have the capacity to take many forms and to change appearance. According to the Imam Ibn Taymiya, they can take a human or animal, form such as a cow, a scorpion, a snake, a bird... The black dog is the devil of the dogs and the djinn often appear in this form. They can also appear in the form of a black cat.
When a djinn takes a human or animal form, it obeys the physical laws of this form; for example, it will be possible to see it or to kill it with a gunshot or to wound it with a knife. For this reason, djinn remain in these forms for only a short time because they are vulnerable. In fact, they benefit from their invisibility to frighten people.
Are Djinn Responsible For Their Actions?
Just like humans, the djinn are responsible for their acts. Indeed, Allah will take the day of the last Judgement to them.
According to the Imam Ibn Taymiya, the djinn observe obligations in relation to their specific nature. Being different from the human beings, their duties are inevitably different, too.
They have religious beliefs, too. Like human beings, they can be Christian, Jewish, Muslims, or non-believers. Some are pious, others are evil.
Are Djinn Afraid of Humans?
The djinn and men feared each other mutually, but the djinn were able to instill fear more intensely than men. The djinns are more fearful beings by nature, but they can also feel such human emotions as anger or sadness. In fact, the djinn benefit from these states, being better able to cause fear in the heart of man. Like bad dogs, when they sense your fear, they will attack.

I got talked into making Guts' Berserker armor by my friend Champ. I told him it would be easy cheesy lemon squeezy because it was the same plate done 50 times. I was a bit wrong. I cranked it out in 3 weeks, but they were pretty painful weeks to be perfectly honest. Enough of me and my hubris getting me into trouble. Let's get on with the build.
Guts' armor changes minute to minute, moment to moment it seems during the manga so I decided on these references to work from. I leaned more towards the figure with small clear ups with the manga.
Big thanks to Mikhail Klakotskiy for this pic. It really helped with patterning and proportioning the sword.
First was to pattern it all out. I started with the shoulder.
From these I cut the shoulder and glued the ends with super glue.
From there you can heat them to get a nice curved shape.
I made a 2nd set and glued it to the 1st. Guts' entire chest is just a repeating shape starting from the shoulder.
I had to write a MatLab script to do some lifting for me on the shoulder. Essentially I resolved the shoulder into a set of vectors, then derived the angle using the dot product.
Had to bondo the seems.
Made the bicep armor similarly to the shoulder. Gluing pieces end to end then heating for the curve.
Chest was done the same as the shoulder. That first shoulder pattern was the pattern for the whole chest. Guts' whole upper body is just a repeating plate. I can't stress how easy that made my life.
Started making the jaw for the collar. PVC foam.
Filled it in with Apoxie Sculpt.
Attached to the chest with a 1/4" thick piece of PVC foam. I wound up bringing the jaw section a bit more forward on its stand. I don't document it but I did do it.
Crotch armor was made the same. Glue PVC end to end then heat. Getting tired of me saying that yet?
Test fit! See if all the proportions are good.
Starting on the leg armor with a pattern. More repeating plates.
Cut them all out. Glued end to end, heated then glued together.
Cut a very small dart to the top of the leg pattern to give a subtle compound curve and ride the curvature of my voluptuous thighs.
Made that weird stripe he has on the thigh by doing the same gluing end to end method then twisting it a little bit. It was a weird shape but I really liked it.
Knees I couldn't figure out so I just brute forced my way through it by using Apoxie Sculpt. There are better ways to do this. Not really recommended.
Second test fit! Starting to look like something!
I didn't bother documenting the shoes or shins because it's more of the same repeating plates nonsense.
The mechanical arm was made using PVC and it fully encloses my arm. Had to make it quickly so not much documentation. Sorry! Googly eyes for detailing and I used a pattern from Amethyst Angel's Edward Alric tutorial for the fingers. I'll include the pattern below.
Probably the most useful part of this build. The Dragonslayer. That big beat stick of a sword. I actually printed out a pattern to get the correct taper.
Cut out the pattern then glued the wood shaft to the PVC foam.
Put up the walls perpendicular to the face.
Closed it up with another plate and started gluing the spines that would support the actual blade.
Applied the blade edge piece from PVC foam.
Closed it up with another PVC foam plate.
The whole point of the hollow design was that I could 1 hand the sword. Algerot Blacksmith made and gave me a Guts sword when I visited Mexico and it was SOOOO light.
Applied Bondo to the seams and sanded it down. Added the ONLY detail to the sword using more PVC foam. The chain link is from Sun's shotgun nunchucks.
Sculpted the pommel with bondo and more PVC foam.
Painted the inner part the same matte black the armor would be painted.
Btw I painted the armor. The bicep section of the mechanical arm is PVC foam with elastic joints. Mostly so it wouldn't restrict my movement.
Thanks for reading! It was a pretty tough costume to crank out in a few weeks, but it was a ton of fun!

And I hope this episode of "In Treatment," like last week's Jake & Amy installment, has finally shown people why it's kind of essential to watch all five episodes each week. Try to imagine watching tonight's Alex episode without having seen last night's Laura show, right? Fire away with your thoughts in the comments.
Labels: In Treatment, In Treatment (season 1)
I agree that the last part is important to have watched, the problem is that I find her so irritating in the session itself. I don't know if the actress or the character that annoys me either.
(Her character in Alias with the fake British accent still annoys me to this day, so I may have some baggage here)
It seems to me as though Paul has taken a bit more control over this session, especially at the end. The excuse about her being late was weak and he was kind of a jerk, but I felt as though I could see him taking the reins and working to push her out as a client.
Funny, I was in the process of writing the exact same thing... I am beginning to find Laura's sessions a real bore. She is becoming the most annoying of an increasingly grating bunch which almost has me wishing for the characters in "Tell Me You Love Me".
I am not sure whether its the double-dose reflection of manipulative Paul that makes her sessions feel grating, or that I just find the two characters sparing too much. Honestly, I don't even feel any chemistry between them, they just seem to dislike each other.
Anyway, the other interweaved characters and Paul's own crumbling relationship make for an interesting watch and I believe all the other actors are excellent. I guess I will hang on for awhile and see how it plays out.
I really loved how Laura completely nailed Paul on the "what would you do if your therapist kept leading you towards some conclusion that you didn't agree with" or something like that. That's exactly the problem Paul has had with Gina, and it was great that Laura brought it up so maybe he could see it.
Except the reason Laura doesn't agree with Paul is that she doesn't want to. She doesn't want to look at herself and see what she really is: an annoying, immature brat who takes no responsibility for actions (at least Paul's not quite that bad--yet!). He should hand her the card of a colleague and send her on her merry, self-destructive way.
ITA with Nicole about Laura being irritating and I'm not sure if it's the actress or the character or both (I don't remember her from Alias, which may be a good thing). But her sessions are painful for me to watch because I want to reach through the TV and slap some sense into her (and occasionally Paul, for that matter).
One thing I wish is that they wouldn't promo next week's ep for each character, and instead promo the next night's ep. It gives way too much away to know what Paul will be saying to Gina in their next session before I've had a chance to see the other four sessions that come before it. Yes, I should quit watching previews, but still, it seems like a dumb way for HBO to promote the show.
The fundamental flaw of the Laura episodes is the completely unbelievable interactions b/t the two of them.
Laura is a doctor. That means that not only has she had at least one psych class, but she's also had at least one actual psych rotation. Even if she weren't a little versed in the basics of psych, any therapist worth his salt would do exactly what Robertson Davies has his shrinks do: Address her claims of "love" head on. Point out to her that she couldn't possibly "love" Paul b/c she doesn't even know the slightest thing about him. Explain why this is a perfectly normal, but temporary, phase of therapy, and explain what the path forward looks like.
It's simply unbelievable that three sessions later, they still haven't had this conversation. Unless of course this series is about a completely incompetent (or downright evil) therapist and the malpractice he inflicts on his patients.
I can stand stoopid TV stories when that's kinda the point of the show (e.g., 90210 is a great example), but stoopid stories packaged in what is supposed to be a sophisticated, adult TV series is just beyond aggravating.
That said, I still enjoy the other episodes. Too bad Laura is so central to the story.
Carlos, I'm with you on the Laura episodes being the weakest of the bunch, but I don't think Paul's refusal to confront the attraction head-on is a sign of evil. Incompetence, maybe. The point of the series is that he's falling apart, personally and professionally, and while we sometimes get glimpses of Paul at the top of his game (mainly in the Sophie episodes), he's been going through the motions as a shrink nearly as long as he has as a husband and father. He's attracted to Laura, plus he knows his own marriage is falling apart, and so he doesn't have the nerve to nip the erotic transference thing in the bud.
But at the same time, he's aware enough that this is a problem that he went back to seeing Gina after years with no supervision. It's sort of like his patients: none of them seem to want to admit their real problems, but they're just aware enough that these problems exist that they're in Paul's office every week.
I personally find her fake American more irritating than the fake British one, but I still like Melissa George as an actress in general.
Last Week's Thursday show was the turning point for me. I enjoy the show and the Blair Underwood show on tonight is real good
Laura's storyline is the one I find least interesting as well.
I love Blair Underwood/Alex, and have to say, I didn't realize what a great actor he is until seeing him in the show. I think Paul is very good with him, and maybe that's why I enjoy his storyline more, I can see Paul's skills and abilities more with Alex. And I'm fasicnated by Alex as a character, his life is so interesting and complex. I don't really give a hoot about Laura and her love life angst and her boring fiancee. If we learn more about her, I might start to find her interesting, but right now, she's pretty one-dimensional - the only thing of interest we know about her is that she's "in love" with Paul. And that's not all that interesting.
I also really like the Sophie episodes, she's so damaged and fragile and watching Paul navigate around that to try and get through to her without terrifying her, that's pretty affecting.
Don't care about the couple, I find them both unlikable.
This episode did nothing for me in terms of making me interested in Laura, the only thing of interest - her meeting Alex - is intriguing only in terms of how Alex experiences it.
Does anyone else feel that the character of Paul is rather unreflective? He lies to Gina in week 2, and, I expect, will tell her that he tried to hand-off Laura when he was really just confusing her. Where is his work with himself?
Alan, are you the guy who wrote those amazing reviews of NYPD Blue episodes? My DH and I really relished those, thank you for them. I have a question in response to a comment here. How, exactly, might a therapist nip an erotic transference in the bud? What would one on his game do?

Box office results: 'Breaking Dawn' has slight edge on 'The Muppets'
Box Office, The Muppets, Twilight	 November 24, 2011
Still #1?
It looks like Thanksgiving weekend is going to be quite a busy one at the box office — but by the time the dust clears, some familiar faces from "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn (Part 1)" are probably still going to be #1.
Based on some early estimates, the newest installment in the popular franchise is set to properly gross around $55 million for the frame, though this could end up being higher. Meanwhile "The Muppets" is set to finish #2 with a number close to $40 million. Considering that the Jason Segel-led revival of the popular characters cost only $45 million to make, we have a feeling that we will be seeing plenty more of Kermit and Miss Piggy moving forward.
As for some of the other releases out there, both "Happy Feet Two" (in its second weekend) and "Arthur Christmas" are going to be battling out for #3 and an opening in the $20 million range over five days. As for the only other major new release, Martin Scorsese's "Hugo," is likely to pull in between $12-13 million — though this is still a victory, since it is playing in far fewer theaters than any of its competition.

Measuring effective capacity in an emergency department

The purpose of this paper is to show how elements from queueing theory can be used to obtain objective measures of effective capacity in the triage function at Skaraborg Hospital in Sweden without direct observation of the function itself.
Approximately 30,000 patients arrived to the emergency department at Skaraborg Hospital in Sweden during 2011. The exact time of arrival and the exact time of triage were recorded for each patient on an individual level. Basic queueing theory uses arrival rates and system capacity measures to derive average queueing times. The authors use the theoretical relation between these three measures to derive system capacity measures based on observed arrival rates and observed average queueing times.
The effective capacity in the triage process is not a linear function of the number of nurses. However, the management of capacity seems well adapted to the actual demand, even though service levels vary substantially during the day and night.
This paper uses elements from queueing theory in an innovative way to measure the effective capacity of a service process without direct observation, thereby also avoiding the potential risk of the Hawthorne effect.

Future employment selection methods: evaluating social networking web sites

The use of social networking web sites (SNWs), like Facebook and MySpace, has become extremely popular, particularly with today's emerging workforce. Employers, aware of this phenomenon, have begun to use the personal information available on SNWs to make hiring decisions. The purpose of this paper is to examine the feasibility of using applicant personal information currently available on SNWs to improve employment selection decisions.
A total of 378 judge ratings (63 raters×6 subjects) are evaluated to determine if raters can reliably and accurately determine the big‐five personality traits, intelligence, and performance based only on information available on SNWs. Interrater reliability is assessed to determine rater consistency, followed by an assessment of rater accuracy.
Based solely on viewing social networking profiles, judges are consistent in their ratings across subjects and typically able to accurately distinguish high from low performers. In addition, raters who are more intelligent and emotionally stable outperformed their counterparts.
Human resource (HR) professionals are currently evaluating social networking information prior to hiring applicants. Since SNWs contain substantial personal information which could be argued to cause adverse impact, academic studies are needed to determine whether SNWs can be reliable and valid predictors of important organizational criteria.
This paper is the first, as far as the authors are concerned, to address the use of SNWs in employment selection, despite their current utilization by HR practitioners.

The aim of this paper is to illustrate the instrumental role of physician Caroline Hedger during the first half of the twentieth century, with her emphasis on worker health, which influenced American society and helped to improve working and living conditions of people across the USA.
Drawing on archival newspaper clippings, original journal articles and books written by the subject, historical manuscripts and other labor history resources, this manuscript pulls together information on this topic in a unique way to give a broad view of the impact of Hedger and her important role not only for the city of Chicago, but the nation as a whole.
This research concludes that Hedger was an instrumental force and tireless advocate for the improvement of public health and social change. She was a constant driver for the creation of better living and working conditions of poor laborers, especially immigrants and women, desired the enhancement of child welfare, and was also helpful in supporting the labor movement and educating those involved in the process.
This is the first manuscript to explore the role played by Caroline Hedger in relation to her impact on the importance of the health of workers and their families. Her story is a testament to the powerful effect of a single person in a dynamic world, and demonstrates how understanding a worker's health contributes to greater insights about management history.

Australian National Standards for Mental Health Services: a blueprint for improvement

The Australian National Standards for Mental Health Services (Commonwealth Department of Health and Family Services, 1996) were developed as a plank of the first National Mental Health Plan (Commonwealth Department of Human Services and Health, 1992). Over the two subsequent national five‐year plans, they have become the basis for accreditation surveys for all Australian mental health services, both hospital and community components, whether acute or rehabilitation oriented, throughout the psychiatric career of all mental health service users and their families. The development and implementation of these standards are described. Innovations in this set of standards are detailed, specifying requirements of each phase of care, including access, entry, exit and re‐entry, and the parallel development and training of paid consumer and family carer surveyors. Largely due to the brevity and clarity of these innovations, because of a broad consultation process, and incorporation of interventions and service delivery systems that are both evidence‐based and congenial to service users, they have achieved a wide acceptance among, and championing by, service user and family carer networks. A recent review of the national standards was timely and welcomed, but is still incomplete, contentious in its protracted process, has a lack of consistent consultation and contains diluted and disorganised results. Implementation guides will now be developed to be superimposed on this revision in an attempt to improve and navigate it.

Stress, Psychological Strain, and Reduced Organizational Effectiveness: The Destructive Consequences of the Use of Intimidation and Pressure by Supervisors

This chapter builds on previous research that conceptualized organizational politics as an organizational stressor. After reviewing the studies that integrated the occupational stress literature with the organizational politics literature, it discusses the negative implications of the use of intimidation and pressure by supervisors, implications that have generally been overlooked. Specifically, the chapter presents a conceptual model positing that the use of intimidation and pressure by supervisors creates stress in their subordinates. This stress, in turn, affects subordinates' well-being, evident in higher levels of job dissatisfaction, job burnout, and turnover intentions. The stress also reduces the effectiveness of the organization, reflected in a high absenteeism rate, poorer task performance, and a decline in organizational citizenship behavior. The model also maintains that individual differences in emotional intelligence and political skill mitigate the stress experienced by subordinates, resulting from the use of intimidation and pressure by their supervisors. In acknowledging the destructive implications of such behavior in terms of employees' well-being and the productivity of the organization, the chapter raises doubts about the wisdom of using it, and advises supervisors to rethink its use as a motivational tool. Implications of this chapter, as well as future research directions, are discussed.

This chapter provides an updated review of research examining the relationship between occupational stressors and job performance. We begin by presenting an eight-category taxonomy of workplace stressors and we then review theories that explain the relationships between workplace stressors and job performance. The subsequent literature review is divided into two sections. In the first section, we present a summary of Jex's (1998) review of research on the job stress–job performance relationship. In the second section, we provide an updated review of the literature, which includes studies that have been published since 1998. In this review, we evaluate how well the contemporary research has dealt with weaknesses and limitations previously identified in the literature, we identify and evaluate current trends, and we offer recommendations and directions for future research.

State Member for Caloundra Mark McArdle has today announced that an LNP Government would provide a one-off grant of $100,000 to assist with installing new night lighting for the Caloundra Cricket Club.
"I am pleased to announce that the LNP's commitment to sport across the Caloundra Electorate continues with a one-off grant of $100,000 to the Caloundra Cricket Club." Mr McArdle said.
"The Club is eager to meet the needs of Caloundra's growing population and this grant would assist with the installation of new night lighting for the oval, providing extended hours of training and facilitating night games." Mr McArdle said.
Caloundra Cricket Club Secretary Lenice Crawford said that one of the clubs primary goals was to better support state cricket as well as women's cricket, which is currently experiencing immense growth in the region.
"This grant would go a long way in helping the club get the lighting up to a standard that is suitable for bigger games." Ms Crawford said.
"Currently we have over 200 members along with their supporters, but better quality lighting means more opportunity for night time training sessions as well as night games, bringing more teams to our facilities. In particular this will help us attract higher profile teams to Caloundra which would benefit the wider community." Ms Crawford said.
"Cricket is bigger than the game itself. It is a social place, helping to develop young people and giving them coping skills that can help them through life." Ms Crawford concluded.
"Cricket is our national sport, part of the Australian psyche. Helping our local cricket club grow along with our other sporting clubs will help put Caloundra on the map at a major sporting destination, no matter what your sport of choice is." Mr McArdle concluded.


A home is a place that provides the human beings comfort and shelter from nature changes. A person without a family is incomplete in this world. Home and family is an integral of every individual's lives. Happiness combined with responsibility completes any family. The sharing one's family customs, traditions principles, and values will have impact largely on the wholesomeness and will help the members grow together. Emotions, spiritual warmth, and an untroubled environment bring out the ultimate beauty of every home. A homemaker is entrusted with everyday household maintenance with a busy schedule that contributes to a pleasurable life of one's family members. It is the duty of every homemaker to ensure that the residential atmosphere is relaxing, stress free and more enjoyable, because it influences the inhabitants largely. Another important responsibility of every homemaker is to maintain the monetary needs and purchasing household needs within the specified budget. The cutting down of unnecessary shopping and daily expenses will improvise the savings level. Savings or delayed consumption contributes to the growth of different sources of revenues thereby increasing the earning capacity. The origin of energy and optimism of extremity, desire, hope, and love these factors make our home alive.

Jen 3/19/2012 06:53:00 AM Manga Monday Edit
Alison Can Read has started doing a Manga Mondays Meme and well I think it's a fun idea. I've been reading manga for what seems like centuries but really only the past hmm 17 years. Wow that long already. I started reading it in middle school and would buy bootleg and fansub vhs tapes, yes vhs tapes, of things like Sailor Moon. Which at that time was still airing new episodes in Japan. The good old days. Why do I love manga, well it's basically YA/Romance books in cartoon form. I think that's why you see a lot of YA books being made into manga. Like for example Twilight and Clockwork Angel. The fun part of manga is that more often then not you can find a drama adaptation of it and of course the Anime version.
My Manwha Feature;
Goong by So Hee Park
Volumes: 27 (complete)
American Publisher: Yen Press (currently at Volume 12)
"Monarchy ended long ago in Korea, but there are still other countries with Kings, Queens, princes and princesses. What if Korea had continued monarchism? What if all the beautiful palaces which are now only historical relics were actually filled with people? What if the glamorous royal family still maintained the palace customs? Welcome to a world where Korea still has the royal family living their lives! But for Che-Kyung, a high-school girl, this is a tragedy, since she has to marry the prince who turns out to be a total jerk!"
Love, Loss, Love Triangles, Love squares and of course political intrigue. This series has all that. I love this series although I'm very behind on it. Well let's say I'm ahead as far as the American published version goes but behind as for as the series as a whole. There are actually two Korean dramas based off this series as well. The first was created and ended before the manwha itself ended and then the second was a spin-off.


[Update: Several people reached out after I posted last night, drawing attention to the fact that al-Mourabitoun (also spelled al Murabitun) apparently reunited with AQIM after its initial separation from the group. On the other hand, others reached out to point to indications that the particular leader at the center of the current storm—al Sahraoui—may still lead a splinter faction that resisted/resists the return to the AQIM fold. All of which underscores the fluidity and uncertainty that tends to plague efforts to draw sharp and steady organizational boundaries in the context of such networks, and that in turn underscores the complexity of defining the organizational scope of the AUMF (and the underlying claim of armed conflict. For some helpful insights, see here, here, and here.).
1. Would the geographic novelty of using force in Niger, standing alone, be a significant departure from Obama administration legal and policy positions, or would it simply be (for better or worse) an application of those same positions to an evolving factual circumstance?
The U.S. government has not used lethal force in Niger previously, so far as the public record indicates (though it is quite easy to imagine that we have provided significant support to local and French partners who have done so). This may now change. Does that mean that the Trump administration is breaking with the Obama administration's legal or policy framework? I don't think so. Obama administration officials were at pains for many years to insist that they took the view—like the Bush administration before it—that the United States was engaged in a genuine armed conflict with al Qaeda, the Taliban, and their associated forces (including the Islamic State on the ground that it was simply AQI under a new name)—and that this conflict had no geographic boundary whatsoever. This is one reason why the Obama administration did not hesitate to begin using airstrikes on a sustained basis in Libya against Islamic State targets in 2016, notwithstanding the novelty of that geographic expansion. From that point of view, there's nothing necessarily novel about the Trump administration now determining that a similar development has now arisen in Niger.
2. Does that mean the U.S. government claims it can use force under color of the law of war in any other country wishes?
In the wake of the attack, the U.S. has been pressing the government of Niger to allow armed drones at the U.S. bases in that country, three U.S. officials said.
Of course, it could be that this request for Niger's permission flows solely from diplomatic considerations, and not from a felt legal obligation. Or maybe it is no more and no less than a practical by-product of the geographic challenges of operating in that region, which might dictate reliance on bases in Niger's territory. But barring evidence to the contrary, there's no basis at this point to assume the Trump administration has broken with this traditional understanding of Article 2(4)'s relevance.
3. Maybe…but there's more than geographic novelty in play here. What about organizational novelty?
It seems to me that this is the more significant issue: Would armed operations in Niger involve a fresh organizational extension of the AUMF (and the associated armed-conflict claim)? It would hardly be the first such extension if so. But with each extension, the credibility of the claim that the 2001 AUMF provides all requisite domestic law authority grows more tenuous (and, by the same token, claims about the existence of a relevant conflict become more complicated). That does not mean this particular extension would be a bridge too far, but it does mean that this development would add still more weight to the already-strong case for Congress to revisit the 2001 AUMF.
The primary target of [the current French and US missions in the region] is a terrorist organization based in Mali and Libya known as Al-Mourabitoun.
Al-Mourabitoun isn't well known by the American public or policymakers, but the group and its affiliates have an extensive history of activity across West Africa and the Sahara. Al-Mourabitoun has been tied to a string of deadly attacks that have killed hundreds since the group's formation in 2013.
…The target of the intelligence activity was the immediate circle of leadership surrounding a militant named Adnan Abu Walid al-Sahraoui, a veteran insurgent originally from Laayoune in Western Sahara, according to two sources….
Al-Mourabitoun — or at least one of its affiliate brigades — now appears to be led by al-Sahraoui, who on May 14, 2015, released an audio message pledging allegiance to ISIS. Several days later, Belmokhtar issued a message rejecting this pledge and affirming the group's loyalty to Al Qaeda. However, Belmokhtar was reported dead in an apparent U.S. airstrike a month later, but the group has not acknowledged that he was killed and there is no way to independently confirm his fate.
ISIS publicly accepted al-Sahraoui's pledge of allegiance in 2016.
Because of the varying accounts of who is in charge of Al-Mourabitoun, and precisely what its goals and loyalties are, the subgroup operated by al-Sahraoui is sometimes referred to by other names: One of these is the Islamic State of the Greater Sahel, abbreviated ISGS — or sometimes ISIS-GS.
4. So...is al-Mourabitoun within the scope of the AUMF?
In the summer of 2015, I analyzed the relevance of the 2001 AUMF to the airstrike on Belmokhtar mentioned above. I noted that Belmokhtar had been part of the Algerian jihadist groups GIA and GSPC, that GSPC later affiliated with al Qaeda to become AQIM), and that Belmokhtar eventually led a splinter group away from AQIM but seemed to maintain his own ties directly to al Qaeda's core leadership. Now we layer in the possible further-splintering of Belmokhtar's group, with an offshoot (al-Mourabitoun) that is active in Niger and that has announced an affiliation with the Islamic State.
Does the 2001 AUMF apply?
If you think that there should be no "associated forces" concept under the AUMF, then of course the answer would be no.
If you believe there is an "associated forces" concept, but think that the Islamic State (as the former AQI) at some point dropped out of that category before hostilities with the United States resumed, then the answer would be no.
If you believe that there is an "associated forces" concept, and that the Islamic State (as the former AQI) never ceased to be covered under the AUMF, then the remaining questions are whether (i) there can be associated forces of associated forces; (ii) al-Mourabitoun really is an Islamic State associated force; and (iii) whether al-Mourabitoun has taken any required step to show that it is not just an associated force in general but also one that has engaged in hostilities against the United States. The ambush should resolve that third prong of the analysis, and I'm not aware of any reason to doubt the second one. It seems to me, then, that the issue turns entirely on the original status of the Islamic State plus the idea of an associated-force daisy chain.
5. If the AUMF does not faily extend to al-Mourabitoun, is that the end of the analysis from a domestic law perspective?
No. Do not overlook the possibility that the administration would argue that Article II self-defense authorities come into play with respect to al-Mourabitoun, quite apart from the AUMF, now that the ambush has occurred (and in light of the prospect that there is good reason to believe the al-Mourabitoun is actively and capably looking to kill more Americans in Niger if possible). As longtime readers may recall, my view on the critical-but-overlooked Article II fallback argument are set forth in my paper "Postwar," available here.

Video: "Major Labels Are A Failing & Dying Business"...Says Nipsey Hussle
Baller Status says:
Nipsey Hussle's slogan in the release of his 'Crenshaw' mixtape was "Eff The Middleman", a campaign aimed at his indie approach.
In an interview with MTV News, the Los Angeles rapper explained his stance on the major label business...and why it's a thing of the past.
"I feel like the major labels -- I'm not gonna say all of them, but as a whole -- that business model is a failing and dying business model," Nipsey explained.
Up next is Nipsey's anticipated debut album, entitled 'Victory Lap'. Will he sell it for $100? He's still not sure, but says he'd release it in a unique way like 'Crenshaw'.
"I can't say off top, I know I'm going to continue to pay attention to the game and I'm not going to follow what was done," Nipsey said. "It isn't the price of the plastic case and polyurethane disc–it's the price of revolution! The price of rebellion against an industry that has tricked us all into making products that have no soul for fear of not being heard if we don't."
No release date for 'Victory Lap' just yet, but until then, make sure to get the 'Crenshaw' mixtape (also on BallerStatus.com)!!!

Eukaryotic cilia and flagella are cellular structures familiar to schoolchildren everywhere for the elegant swath they cut as they propel protozoa through pond water. Less well recognized is the fact that a single immotile cilium is present on almost every type of vertebrate cell. These so-called primary cilia were discovered more than a century ago and, yet, their functions remain largely unexplored (Singla and Reiter, 2006).
It is now becoming clear that the primary cilium plays important roles in both development and disease. Perhaps its most dramatic function is in the kidney - ciliary defects cause polycystic kidney disease, the most common life-threatening monogenic illness. Primary cilia also have roles in sensing environmental information. Photoreceptors and odorant receptors function on primary cilia, and primary cilia are essential for sound reception. Therefore, it is not much of an exaggeration to say that we see, smell and hear through cilia.
Do cilia transduce intercellular signals other than Hedgehog?
How do cilia interpret signals essential to vertebrate development?
Do cilia participate in Hedgehog-mediated oncogenesis?
How do cells regulate whether they form a cilium?
This work has begun to suggest that the primary cilium is an organelle dedicated to signal transduction, somewhat analogous to a cellular antenna. We hope that our current endeavors will reveal how this antenna interprets the signals required for normal development and homeostasis, and how malfunctions in the antenna contribute to cancer and other important human diseases.

Lewis Hamilton's sensational charges of biases against Mercedes as his car explodes in flames
A furious Lewis Hamilton lashed out at his Mercedes team Sunday, saying "someone doesn't want me to win" after his engine exploded into flames during the Malaysian Grand Prix.
"No, no," cried the Englishman as flames appeared at the back of his car when leading on lap 41 of the 56-lap race at Sepang International Circuit.
He had looked certain to leapfrog Nico Rosberg at the top of the standings when his power unit — the eighth he has used this season — let go in the most spectacular fashion.
Instead, Daniel Ricciardo and Max Verstappen enjoyed a one-two for Red Bull and Rosberg took the third podium place to increase his lead in the standings from eight to 23 points with five races remaining.
A highly emotional Hamilton, who has suffered numerous mechanical failures this season as he attempts to secure a third drivers title in a row, implied that Mercedes were favouring their German driver Rosberg.
"My question is to Mercedes: we have so many engines made for drivers, but mine are the only ones failing this year," Hamilton told BBC radio.
"Someone needs to give me some answers because this is not acceptable. We are fighting for the championship and only my engines are failing.
"There are many decisive races but this is one of those.
Someone doesn't want me to win this year, but I won't give up.
I will keep pushing."
Mercedes executive director Paddy Lowe defended the team, saying there was "no pattern" as to why Hamilton's engines kept failing and Rosberg's did not.
"It is difficult. No failure is planned," said Lowe on Sky Sports television.
'Indescribable' pain
"We work as hard as we can to increase reliability. We have eight Mercedes power units in the field and there is no pattern for why it should fall on Lewis Hamilton's car."
Later Hamilton posted a conciliatory statement on his Facebook page in which he appeared to backtrack on his earlier outburst.
"Today, the pain is indescribable," wrote the three-time world champion. "I have 100% faith in my team, they have worked so hard both at the track, and factory, and I want to say a HUGE thank you to them.
"I know we've had all these problems but it's not how we fall, it's how we get up… I will, we will, NEVER give up!"
Mercedes non-executive chairman, and former multiple world champion, Niki Lauda said the team had "let down" Hamilton.
"I am really upset. We should not let him down with an engine failure. It was a fairly new engine, it was not old in the car," Lauda told Sky. "What went wrong I do not know and we will work to correct it."
The Austrian motor racing legend admitted he needed to put an arm round Hamilton and lift his spirits, after a weekend where the three-time world champion had dominated until just 15 laps from the end of Sunday's race.
"I am taking him to Japan tomorrow in my plane. I hope I can (cheer) him up," said Lauda. "The championship is over when the last race is over, 23 points is a lot but you never know."
Hamilton's post-race press conference was cancelled "by mutual consent" said Mercedes.

The Differential Equation Model for Exponential Growth
Applications of the Derivative
Norm Prokup
PhD. in Mathematics
Norm was 4th at the 2004 USA Weightlifting Nationals! He still trains and competes occasionally, despite his busy schedule.
The Differential Equation Model for Exponential Growth - Problem 3
The solution to a differential equation dy/dx = ky is y = cekx. This can be used to solve problems involving rates of exponential growth.
The population of a group of animals is given by a function of time, p(t). So, the rate of growth of the population is p'(t). If the rate of growth is proportional to the population, p'(t) = kp(t), where k is a constant. Now, this is of the form dy/dx = ky, so this differential equation can be solved to find that p(t) = cekx. Use the initial condition to find the value of c.
differential equations exponential growth exponential decay
We have a couple new general solutions to differential equations, that we can use in some problems. We have dy/dx equals k times y. We know that this differential equation has the general solution equals Ce to the kx. So these are the exponential functions, this is the exponential differential equation. And in a very similar differential equation; dy/dx equals k times the quantity y minus a, gives me the solution y minus a equals c to the kx. Very similar solutions for very similar differential equations. So I have two examples here and we're going to use these formulas to solve them.
First solve this differential equation subject to the initial condition; y times zero equals 10. First of all, I need to get this differential equation into one of these two forms. I'm going to move this 0.2y to the right hand side, because I want my dy/dx to be isolated on the left. When I do that, I have to subtract this I get -0.2y. You can see that this differential equation is in the form of the first one. K is -0.2, otherwise, it's exactly the same. So the solution is going to be y equals Ce to the -0.2x. That's my general solution.
To get the particular solution that satisfies this initial condition, I have to apply the initial condition to the solution so when x equals zero, y has to equals 10. So I'll plug 10 in for y, Ce to the -0.2, zero in for x and of course e to the zero, I just 1. 1 times C is 10 so C is 10. That gives me my particular solution y equals 10e to the -0.2x. That's the solution to this differential equation with this initial condition.
Let's take a look at another example. Part b; dp/dt equals 0.1p plus 200 with the initial condition p(0) equals 1000. What's going to make this one tricky is that, we've changed the variables here. We don't have y and x, we have p and t. But I've rewritten this rule up here just to remind me that I have a formula. How to solve this differential equation, I can just use this general solution. If I can get this, into the form of this, I can use my formula.
Well the key is factoring out a 0.1 from both of these terms. You factor 0.1 out of 0.1p you're left with just p. If you factor a 0.1 out of 200, you're left with 2000, because 2000 times 0.1 is 200. So this is very much in this form. Where 0.1 is k, my variable y is now p. This is the name of my function, P. The independent variable x is now t, so I have to keep that in mind. Instead of having y minus A, I have p plus 200. And that's okay because if you look at the solution, the solution starts with the y minus A. So here my solution will start with a p plus 2000. So p plus 2000 equals Ce to the k times, this should be t. Ce to the k, and k is 0.1,t.
The only thing that's left to do is to find out what the value of C is that goes with my initial condition. Let me pull this over here. P(0) equals 1000. So when t is 0, p is 1000, so I'll –plug 1000 in here, plus 2000 from the left side, equals Ce to the 0.1 times 0. Again e to the 0 is 1 and I get C equals 3000. And so my final solution is P, let me write it in the same form. P plus 2000 equals C which was 3000e to the 0.1t. Of course you can write your final solution as P equals -2000 plus 3000e to the 0.1t. That's how to use some simple formulas to solve differential equations that are related to exponential growth.

Utility - The Vault Fallout Wiki - Everything you need to know about Fallout 76, Fallout 4, New Vegas and more!
The utility tunnel is an area in Fallout 3 which connects a manhole in Pennsylvania Avenue with the remains of the White House. In the add-on Broken Steel, it also contains an access to the Presidential Sub Level which leads to the Presidential Metro with exits to The Capitol Building's east wing and Adams Air Force Base.
When you enter the utility tunnel, there is a copy of Pugilism Illustrated, a workbench, and an ophthalmoscope in a side room to the right. To get to the White House, take the first left, follow the corridor, and you will eventually find a door to the left that opens onto the ruin-filled radioactive pit that the White House has become. To reach the Presidential sub level in Broken Steel, keep following that corridor until you see a door on the right.

At the intersection where the unlucky daredevil hung himself from the light, taking the path west and following it around will yield a cash register with pre-War money. A few steps north of the register is a first aid box in the rubble.
There are two ramps set up on either side of a car and the remains of a daredevil trying to keep himself entertained after the bombs fell. You can see on one side the crashed motorcycle and the top half of the daredevil hanging from the light fixture above the car. However, it is possible for the skeleton to have fallen down and be lying on the car instead.
Utility appears only in Fallout 3.

In the early days of starting a company, every entrepreneur is full of confidence and ignorance in equal measure. We're all whistling in the dark, unsure of what's ahead and feeling very lonely. And as we search for some signal in the silence, we all end up at the same place: Quora.
Quora was made for, and by, entrepreneurs. Sure, "Data Visualization," the first category on my homepage, offers about 14,000 followers. But go to "Startups" and there are 3.5 million. "Entrepreneurship"? You'll find 4.5 million seekers of wisdom. And 27 million curious folks follow "Business"--and so on.
Quora, it seems, is where we entrepreneurs all go to ask: Where am I? And what should I do?
This thirst for guidance, for something to measure against, to know what the heck other people in my shoes did, is what I remember most about my own early days, when I started Iodine five years ago. I went to Quora for wisdom on corporate structure (C corporation or B Corporation or LLC?), fair equity grants, and 83(b) elections, and for advice on how to turn contract workers into full-timers and--once or twice--how to let someone go. Pretty much any question I had, someone on Quora had had before. And if the answers didn't always put me on autopilot, they usually helped me spot the guardrails.
Those days were filled with exuberance and novelty. I was fueled by a fire to get this thing going. I was eager to build a new company, and Quora was going to fill in the blanks in my experience. The energy was everything.
But five years is a long time. Given today's typical career trajectory, five years could be one or two jobs. And if you're leading a startup, five years is a curious, in-between place. You've survived a purge or two; you couldn't have made it this far without some amount of success.
Still, you're not there yet. So you sit, trying, as ever, to make this business a real one. And you're far enough along that the early enthusiasms have waned and wandered. You're in a weird place. And now your questions are a bit more existential than those covered in Quora. They're more like: How do I keep my team motivated and inspired? How do I revive my mission when the dream I sold my team five years ago is, well, five years old? And how do I keep myself confident enough that I inspire every person on my team at every opportunity, as I did that first day?
If you're a semi-successful startup, you may be able to throw money at the problem, offering swell perks and extra options. But those aren't real solutions. Those are largely extrinsic motivations, not intrinsic ones: They depend on external factors like wealth and status to keep people engaged. They don't tap into the core motivations that most humans, particularly those of us drawn to startups, bring to work every day--things like purpose, meaning, mission. We want to be part of something important. We want to be part of a company that is going places. That's why we went this startup route in the first place.
We were fortunate that Iodine was acquired by GoodRx, about three and a half years in. That event reset our clock and work and expectations. It recalibrated our team to be part of something bigger. For us, the acquisition was the perfect wake-up call at the perfect moment. My sense is that every startup, to be successful, must at some point go through a similar recalibration. After all, the game plan in year seven or eight is almost never the same as the one on the first day. And if you're lucky enough to get there, your hard-won wisdom will almost certainly be more valuable and useful than those early dreams. That's the stuff that people really want to know from Quora.
By the way: For the founders of startups, Quora isn't just a reference source of knowledge; it's a model in and of itself. Quora kicked off in 2009. Nearly 10 years later, it's still a startup, whatever that means. The company hasn't had that big exit that allows the team to breathe and the founders to rest on their laurels. Here's hoping it pulls something off soon--and is willing to tell that story to entrepreneurs.

ScoMo's authentic Aussie foreign policy takes shape
Pic by John on Flickr
From a framing speech in Sydney to G20 diplomacy in Osaka, Prime Minister Scott Morrison is fast putting down markers for Australian foreign policy.
By Rory Medcalf
Amid the vicissitudes of global economic and strategic tensions, he is developing a world view with large horizons and some clear guiding principles.
These include a rejection both of fatalism and simple binary choices. It will be all the way neither with Trump's America nor Xi's China.
Instead, there is a welcome emphasis on Australia's agency as an independent middle power, and the strength we can sustain by combining security at home with many-sided engagement abroad.
His Sydney speech last week was more subtle than its title, "Where We Live". It presented an expansive and inclusive vision of Australia's region – the Indo-Pacific – grounded in an affirmation of liberal democratic values as part of this nation's identity.
This confirms a bipartisan continuity and evolution in strategic thinking going back at least to the official introduction of the Indo-Pacific concept under then prime minister Julia Gillard in 2013.
Australia's Indo-Pacific strategy is not inherently anti-China. But nor is about ignoring or accepting China's efforts to dominate the wider region.
Instead, as Morrison has confirmed, Australia seeks to navigate a future based on shared principles, sovereignty and mutual respect among many players, including Japan, India, the 10 states of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and our neighbourhood "family" in the South Pacific.
The Indo-Pacific recognises that both economic connectivity and strategic competition are encompassing the two-ocean region around us, and that we can protect our interests through new partnerships across the blurring of old geographic boundaries.
None of this is to deny the enormous collateral impact of the US-China contest. In Osaka, all eyes were on where Donald Trump and Xi Jinping would take the immediate trade war dimension of long-term strategic and technology rivalry.
They reached a tactical truce. But Trump's partial resumption of American commercial relations with Chinese telecommunications champion Huawei does not fundamentally change the policy landscape for Canberra.
In an act of sovereign national security policy, the Australian government has prohibited that company's involvement in the critical 5G network.
To reconsider this decision on the basis of the latest moment of Trumpian transactionalism would be contrary to the very notion of independent foreign policy that alliance sceptics espouse. America's more direct national security restrictions on Huawei remain in place. In a sense, America has now moved closer to Australia's position on Huawei.
The point of middle power diplomacy is not to ignore the power play of the American and Chinese leaders, but to cope with it.
Morrison's pre-summit dinner last week with Trump was valuable not only as a chance to try to influence America but to demonstrate to others that Australia matters – and that being a US ally increases our access, relevance and agency.
The prime minister's other connections in Osaka showed the web our diplomacy must sustain. The conversation with Xi was brief but notable. Morrison also met Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
We may cringe at Abe publicly calling his guest "ScoMo" or at Modi's viral tweet, "Mate! I'm stoked at the energy of our bilateral relationship". Yet like it or not, it may well be that a stereotypically Australian shrimp-on-the-barbie conservatism proves an unexpected asset for the nation's diplomacy. And the underlying reality is that Japan and India increasingly take Australia seriously.
The G20 was also a chance also to cross paths with the leaders of Indonesia, Vietnam and France: significant partners in the emerging multipolarity.
Indonesian President Joko Widodo is working with Australia and others, however desperately, for the survival of a rules-based system of free trade.
Less high-profile has been Indonesia's work within ASEAN to secure consensus on a Southeast Asia vision of the Indo-Pacific, sharing common principles with Australia's.
These regional complexities provide a nuanced context for Australian decision-makers when they encounter the foreign policy debate at home.
For instance, celebrated strategic thinker Hugh White has urged Morrison to openly oppose an American "Cold War" against China.
White has a new book with a stark premise that America cannot win a serious strategic competition with China in the Indo-Pacific, and that when it comes to defending Australia, will leave us to our own devices.
Perhaps this is one of the binaries the prime minister rejects.
Another intriguing intervention is the work of Sydney-based think tank China Matters, which has released a "new China narrative" for Australia.
It's a detailed statement of the many opportunities and limitations in Australia-China relations, from expansion of trade and investment alongside fundamental differences over values.
The China Matters initiative may understandably have set out to offset the unsettling edges of the Turnbull government's pushback against interference by the authoritarian Chinese state.
But in response to public consultations, the "new China narrative" ends up acknowledging a bit of everything – including that Australia needs to work with many countries in Asia to define rules for constraining Chinese behaviour.
In other words, it is not in Australia's interests to define its future in China-centric terms.
The prime minister seems to recognise that a policy for turbulent times requires a different story – an authentically Australian narrative that ties our destiny to the whole region rather than a single power.

Company registration in Malta is a straight forward process which can be very easily achieved. With that being said, there are some things that need to be taken into consideration when registering a company in Malta. This is because there are some language and cultural barriers that need to be taken into consideration for the best possible outcome. This article will serve as a guide on registering a company in Malta.
One thing that must be done when thinking of registering a company in Malta is to consult with a Maltese law firm. This is because there are large differences in law in Malta when compared to other countries. Many companies fall into the trap of thinking that many of the laws found in countries such as France and Germany are the same in countries such as Malta. This simply is not the case. There have been many cases of companies going into trouble as they have not properly followed Maltese law through registration.
This is not to say that Maltese laws for company registration are difficult and hard to comply with. In fact, it is the very opposite. Registration in Malta is very easy for many businesses to do. In fact, many people choose to register in Malta as there are lots of benefits that are found in Malta when compared to other countries. With that being said, it is certainly important that a company does their due diligence when it comes to Maltese law.
The registration of a company in Malta can be processed in a relatively small amount of time. This is certainly true when compared to other countries which can take a very long time to review and approve a registration of a company. In fact, some countries will require a company to be reviewed by several different panels and sometimes even the head of the country. This is something that does not occur in Malta and should certainly put many businesses looking to register in the country at ease. However, this certainly does not mean that registration is instantaneous. Companies looking to get registered should plan carefully in order to make up for lost business operations during the period that they are waiting to be approved and completely registered in Malta.
Furthermore, there is the little cost that is associated with registration in Malta. Lots of smaller businesses often are unable to register due to the extravagant costs many countries apply to the registering businesses. Malta has very low costs associated with company registration. This makes the country great for small businesses that are looking to expand in Malta. A lot of expats are now returning to Malta for retirement as well so the economy looks very promissing right now.
Overall, company registration in Malta is much easier and efficient than lots of other areas in the world. With that being said, many companies need to ensure that they do the right planning before going ahead with registration. Thanks to all of the information that has been presented in this article, more and more businesses should be able to enjoy registration in Malta.

Q: Why can one cert create profile provision and not the other cert? I have two certs on my system - one personal and one dev expired and turned to personal. I'm developing apps with Cordova and running them with Xcode on my iPhone to get a preview. I sign the app with the used-to-be-dev cert and there is no problem, however I sign the app with the personal cert and I get:

In the hopes to straighten this: I granted everyone the read&write rights to the folder, like below:

to no avail. Am I missing something?

A: I think the problem here is not necessarily local permissions, but permissions with Apple Developer.
Try to sign in at http://developers.apple.com and verify your permissions.
Also, it looks like that bundle identifier cannot be used. (anymore?) Try using another bundle identifier and see if the problem resolves.

BMW's hybrid 7-series sedan offers everything you could hope to find in a German car, albeit at a $90,000 price tag! A 2.0L I-4 turbocharged engine produces 255 horsepower, which doesn't sound too impressive until it is connected to the electric motor and bumped to a whopping 322 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque. You will get from zero to sixty in 5 seconds, and in that 5 seconds you'll forget you're even driving a hybrid. You're simply driving what BMW is best known for creating: beautiful and powerful sedans.
You can also expect all of the standard luxury features that BMW is known for offering, including four-zone automatic climate control, panoramic sunroof, high-gloss wood trim, heated 12-way power seats, voice-activated navigation system on a 10.3 inch color touchscreen, gesture control, wireless cellphone charging, HD radio, and more!
Since electric runs this vehicle, you just need to plug in to charge the on-board battery. This will give you 22 miles of all-electric driving at up to 75 miles per hour, which may not sound like a whole lot but is actually superior to some other vehicles of this type. Total mileage is far more impressive: when combining gas mileage with the electric motor, you can expect to reach 64 miles per gallon in your 7-series hybrid!
Of course, BMW is all about taking your needs into consideration, which is why you can set your steering, transmission, suspension, and throttle into three modes: Comfort Plus, Comfort, and Sport. That Sport mode makes it possible to shoot away from green lights, leaving other cars in the dust. It's also the perfect setting when you're all alone on windy back roads or in the sweet zone on a straight away.
A system called Active Comfort Drive with Road Preview is also included. This complex system helps your hybrid vehicle anticipate certain needs to make your ride smoother and safer. You don't even need to understand everything it does, but you will certainly benefit from it.
If you go ahead and splurge on this luxury German vehicle, you will need to have a German important mechanic to keep it in prime form. Potter's Precision Imports, located in St. Petersburg, Florida, specializes in BMW and all other German vehicle maintenance and repair.

Longevity Partners Netherlands issues its first BREEAM certificates
Having opened its doors nearly two months ago, Longevity Partners B.V. has issued its first BREEAM-NL In-Use certificates to Klépierre. As part of our assignment for Klépierre, Longevity Partners have certified four prime shopping centres, representing over 100,000 m² GFA of retail space. With a total property value of €24.4 billion, Klépierre is the pan-European leader in shopping malls. The four shopping centres received a Very Good (***) score and were certified by Roger Toussaint, BREEAM In-Use Assessor and Managing Director at Longevity Partners in the Netherlands.
Some of the sustainability measures that Klépierre has put in place at the shopping malls include: a separate sewage system for rainwater drainage, green roofs, the separation of different waste streams, water-saving measures in sanitary facilities, and the application of a thermal storage installation (heat and cold storage) that partially supplies the shopping centre with energy from a locally generated renewable energy source.
These certifications are part of a larger 5-year mission for Klépierre. As part of its 'Act For Good' CSR policy, the Group has committed to certifying 100% of its assets by 2022. Klépierre has gone beyond the traditional asset per asset certification approach to adopt a full portfolio approach thanks to an innovative, long-term partnership with the Building Research Establishment (BRE) and Longevity Partners.
BREEAM In-Use certification makes it possible for shopping centres to commit to reducing operating costs and optimizing environmental performance and occupants' well-being. By certifying these assets Longevity Partners are playing an important role in the greening of the commercial real estate industry at large, therefore working toward our ultimate goal to help the world transition to a net-zero economy post Paris Agreement.
The following prime shopping malls were certified:
Hoog Catharijne, Utrecht
The recently renovated shopping centre 'Hoog Catharijne' received a BREEAM In-Use score of "Very Good" at the Asset level. In addition, a score of "Good" at the Management level was achieved. Hoog Catharijne is the Fashion and Food destination of the Netherlands and will reach 30 million visitors in 2019. Approximately 56.593 m2 was in scope for this assessment. Hoog Catharijne has an average energy rating A.
De Markthal, Rotterdam
Markthal is an iconic building in Rotterdam City Center, with a mix of functions; market, shops, restaurants, apartments and parking. The design is by architect Winy Maas of the well-known Rotterdam architectural firm MVRDV. The assessment was limited to the large market hall on the ground floor and the general areas on the 1st and -1 floors, representing approximately 4.896 m2 GFA. De Markthal has an average energy rating A.
Alexandrium Shopping Centre, Rotterdam
According to Klépierre, the Alexandrium Shopping Centre, representing approximatively 14.234 m2 GFA, is the most complete and fashionable indoor shopping destination of the province South-Holland. The Shopping Centre has 140 shops, covering any fashion, food and lifestyle products, and receives approximately 8 million visitors a year. The shopping centre has an average energy rating A and an extensive green roof, representing over 50% of its area footprint.
Villa Arena, Amsterdam
The home furnishing shopping centre is located next to the multifunctional football stadium Amsterdam Arena, home base for Ajax. Approximately 29.227 m² was certified within this assessment. Villa Arena has an average A+ energy rating.
About BREEAM
BREEAM (Environmental Research Assessment Building) is one of the most widely used sustainability labels in the world. The Netherlands has its own country specific scheme, which was developed by the Dutch Green Building Council (DGBC). It is an assessment method to determine the sustainability of existing buildings. When awarding the BREEAM-NL In-Use certificate, nine issues related to sustainability are tested: Management, Health, Energy, Transport, Water, Materials, Waste, Land use & Ecology, and Pollution. The score is expressed in number of stars, from one to five.

See our individual advertisements. Also read about our history of Catena.
La Chaux-de-Fonds, 1947: Mr. Willy Lebet starts his own watch company. La Chaux-de-Fonds is a city in the so-called cradle of the Swiss watch industry and saw, like its close neighbour Le Locle, several watch companies blooming in the 19th and 20th centuries. La Chaux-de-Fonds is the highest city in Europe and has a long winter and till recently its population lived essentially from the watch industry.
In the early 50´ Mr. Lebet moved his company to La Neuveville, a small village only 25 miles away from La Chaux-de-Fonds. Soon he registered a new brand name CATENA and in 1959 his son Claude took over the command of the company. At that time the company was specialized in the assembling of mechanical watch movement and the company grew fast.
In 1964 the company moved to Bulle, where it could find the necessary work force. Bulle is the main city of the Gruyère, so famous for its cheese and chocolate, and CATENA was just coming as the third of the well known Swiss products, cheese, chocolate and watches.
At that time, mechanical watches still reigned supreme and few manufacturers dared to leave the beaten track by releasing a particularly original watch. But CATENA already at that time shone by its unconformity and produced its own unique design. This was the famous "Spaceman" inspired by the flying saucers that ere a great subject of conversation at the time and which met with a resounding success a little later on most world markets. The "Spaceman" even landed in the Museum of Modern Art in New York. This success encouraged the Catena management team and the dynamic owner, Mr. Lebet, to commit themselves ever further in the production of finished watches and to envisage a brand policy. Since that time much snow has fallen on the superb Moléson Mountain dominating the factory. The Catena Collection grew with quartz watches pushing out most mechanical models.
A tragic accident derived the firm of its leader and the new management faced problems to deal with both, the loss of its marketing genius and the many changes in the world watch markets. CATENA developed and successfully launched several new products, both with exceptional and exclusive features keeping a good name for original designs; however it missed the strength and vision of Claude Lebet.
In 1993 CATENA was bought over by Eric Aubert who quickly gave to CATENA all the benefits of his long experience of the watch industry. Eric Aubert was born in Le Locle and, like his wife Françoise, most of his ascendants were either watchmakers or teachers. This makes that Francoise and Eric are the fourth generation of two families of watchmakers and teachers. They have two sons, the fifth generation, Alban who is a sport teacher and Dimitri who is a senior manager with a renowned watch brand.
Eric Aubert knew he had to undertake drastic changes to reposition CATENA, but wanted to do that, step by step to let all active markets to get acquainted with the new strategy. At the beginning of this new century CATENA had one major design, produced in many different versions and this was the beginning of the Horseshoe era. This was a new major turn in the life of the CATENA brand that is quickly becoming the Equestrian time-piece. In addition to push sales in existing markets, the Horseshoe model has opened the doors to new territories. CATENA has gained in a short period of time a strong awareness among the equestrian people and is becoming the product to wear by all horse lovers.


First, I edited /etc/rc.conf and replaced dhcpd_flags="NO" with dhcpd_flags="". Then, I used ifconfig to check the name of the ethernet adapter. In my case it is xl0.
NOTE: Highlighted numbers are what you type. The rest is the response from the computer.
I edited /etc/dhcpd.interfaces and added xl0 at the very end, so it looked like this.
# List of network interfaces served by dhcpd(8).
xl0 is the listener interface. You can have multiple interfaces. Since I have only one network card, xl0 is the only option.
DHCP server stores its leases in a file /var/db/dhcpd.leases. This file is not there, so we have to create it first.
The last part involves you to modify the configuration file, where you can specify the scope and other parameters of the DHCP server. I made a copy of the original file, in case something goes wrong.
Then I edited /etc/dhcpd.conf to suit my needs. This is the simplest working configuration.
option domain-name "your-domain-here" means I have used your-domain-here as DNS name. So, your DHCP client host will have this value as suffix.
Next parameter, option domain-name-servers 192.168.1.2, 192.168.1.8; is the address or addresses of your DNS servers that will be assigned to the computer that will lease an IP.
The line after that tells the DHCP server what's the network class and subnet. My network is 192.168.1.0/24, /24 is 255.255.255.0, /16 is 255.255.0.0 etc….
The gateway assigned (option routers) in my case is 192.168.1.1.
And I also choose the scope of my DHCP to be from 192.168.1.50 to 192.168.1.254.
If everything is OK, you'll get the prompt back. Let's verify that DHCP server is working.
I went back to my Windows laptop and verified that everything is OK.
And I can verify on the DHCP server that it leased an IP.

Robert Pattinson and Emma Watson Could Reunite in 'Dark Arc' Remake
The 'Harry Potter' stars are said to take the lead roles in the upcoming project, with Casey Affleck as another possible lead actor.
AceShowbiz - Robert Pattinson is reportedly landing another film project. According to Spunk-Ransom, a Robert Pattinson fansite, the "Twilight" thesp has signed up to star in a remake version of 2004 "Dark Arc" with a major studio behind this forthcoming movie.
Beside Pattinson, Emma Watson has reportedly sealed the deal to join the film. The two are said to tackle two of the three lead roles. Casey Affleck, meanwhile, is allegedly still in talks to portray the other main character.
Spunk-Ransom claims to have received details about the project from "The Insider" who also spills the name of the potential director. The site, however, does not mention the filmmaker's name and notes that their scoop should be considered a rumor since they have not received any confirmation from the studio or players involved.
"Dark Arc" itself is a mysterious comedy about love, lust, art and the power of the "charged image". It tells the story of the eccentric love triangle between an artist, a graphic designer and their inspiring muse.

UPDATE: After this rumor was released, Robert Pattinson's representative debunked it. To Gossip Cop, the rep said the report is "untrue" and he is not involved in the said project.
