THE $30,000 LUNCH
Sign! Sign!! Sign!!!
The vultures had been circling overhead all morning.
At 2:00 p.m. they swooped in for the kill. Their prey, Dr Baldeo, was in a conference room at Mineola, Long Island Family Court. He, his Father, his two lawyers, and I were seated around the table.
The evening before his lawyers, Dennis Wrong and Betti Sachs, had negotiated with their opposites for several hours. I received a copy of the new proposed agreement (the technical term is "Stipulation") via email. It was painfully obvious that Dr Baldeo had lost everything. The next morning I decided to forego circumlocution.
"You got nothing," I spat out. Wrong could see I meant business, so he too (for a change) decided against verbal evasion.
"That's true, we got nothing."
"Then I cannot in good conscience recommend that Dr Baldeo sign the agreement."
The day before Dr Baldeo and I had narrowed the points of contention down to five. I was hoping to win on a few token items, totaling $30,000, so as to enable Baldeo to save face and not walk out a broken man. He had already lost over a million dollars in liquid assets and his home, his life's savings.
The lawyers for the Plaintiff, Azimoon, conceded a few of the token points but then jacked up their new attorneys fees by $30,000. Through my own ears, and straight from the horse's mouth, I heard Michael Chetkof, the senior partner[1] representing Azimoon, reckon that new attorney fees came to $50,000. But when he returned from lunch an hour later, Chetkof demanded $80,000.
He was billing at $30,000 per hour for his lunch break!
After informing Baldeo's attorneys that I would not bring moral pressure to bear on him, the lawyers for both sides entered another round of negotiations. Baldeo's lawyers emerged from the room an hour later downcast.
Behind them, Chetkof marched out. "You went from $50,000 to $80,000 in the blink of an eye," I shouted. "You're a goniff!" Visibly shaken, Chetkof beat a swift retreat. A few moments later he reduced new attorneys fees by $5,000.
First lesson: An ephemeral outburst laser-guided at The Goniff's public persona achieved more, if still a pittance, than Baldeo's attorneys managed to wring out in hours of tedious negotiations.
But the writing was on the wall. The attorneys fees were piling up. Under current matrimonial law, the "lesser-earning spouse" doesn't pay any attorneys fees. The bottom-line was, Dr Baldeo had to foot the bill for four lawyers, his own and Azimoon's.
The "logic" behind this statute is to even the legal playing field between the parties. But the practical result was, the attorneys had no motive to settle. The more protracted the proceedings, the more they stood to gain, especially as Baldeo was a physician: that is, a milking-cow.
Chetkof and Burger billed at $950.00 per hour; Dr Baldeo's lawyers at $500.00 per hour. After each day in Court, Baldeo was more than $10,000.00 the poorer. If the case continued a few more days, he would wind up in debtors prison.
If Chetkof and Burger did settle, it was because—savoring the lucre, licking their chops, hungering for the flesh—they wanted their fees now, not later.
Whenever Chetkof heard "attorneys fees," his eyes lit up like bonfires a-blazing. Wrong nicknamed him "Mr Check-Talk."
After relentless threats and intimidation, compounded by mounting attorneys fees, Dr Baldeo finally succumbed.
He never got his day in Court. He didn't even get to cross-examine the first witness. The trial was over before it began.
"It has to come to an end," Baldeo sighed in resignation, a wan smile on his face.
Just before the agreement was signed, Chetkof approached Dr Baldeo.
"I want you to know that I respect you."
Chetkof and Burger had alleged in hundreds of pages of Court papers that Dr Baldeo was a sadistic monster.
But now Chetkof says, "I respect you."
Chetkof, of course, didn't believe a word in the Court papers. He, of course, knew they were all lies.
Otherwise, how could he possibly "respect" Dr Baldeo? Did the prosecutor "respect" Jack the Ripper?
But the truth didn't deter Chetkof from framing and blackmailing Dr Baldeo.
From torturing him.
"My job is to do whatever it takes to win," Chetkof sputtered to me just before the denouement. "Baldeo is stupid not to settle. He will be destroyed."
The first four days in Court, Chetkof dug deep into his bag of dirty tricks in order to make Dr Baldeo writhe in excruciating agony.
But, like the Gestapo agent who ups the amperage on the "defendant's" testicles, it was nothing personal.
How easily the words flowed from Chetkof's lips, "I respect you."
Jaded to the point of moral desiccation, after decades of administering the electrodes Chetkof didn't even notice the irony in his praise.

Cannabinoids /
Some Common Uses for CBD and How They Differ from THC
Published by Editorial Staff at January 21, 2018

Almost everyone has heard of marijuana in some capacity. Some love it some hate it, but in the United States marijuana is a huge part of our culture. From propaganda films demonizing it, to musicians praising it, marijuana has been one of the most controversial topics in our country for decades. To some it is a religious sacrament, to others a symbol of moral degeneracy. In 1971, as part of the War on Drugs, the United States federal government effectively declared war on marijuana. Since the decision to place marijuana on the list of Schedule I drugs with no known medical use, there have been constant protests and a continuation of distribution and usage of the plant via the black market. In 1996, pro-marijuana advocates scored their first legal victory, as California officially became the first state to make medical marijuana legal. Amidst growing scientific evidence proving marijuana to have medical uses, many states have followed in legalizing medical marijuana. Then in 2012, Washington and Colorado became the first two states to legalize recreational marijuana. The states subsequently opened dispensaries open to everyone over the age of 21 where customers could legally buy marijuana. According to marketwatch.com, in 2016 alone, Colorado sold $1.3 billion dollars of marijuana and brought in nearly $200 million in tax revenue.
Since the legalization of marijuana in these states, many people who otherwise would never try cannabis products have begun using marijuana. This includes older people who used cannabis when they were younger, but for whatever reason gave it up. Now that it is easy to legally obtain, people are beginning to gain the benefits of this incredible plant, who otherwise never would have tried to seek it out on the black market. One thing to keep in mind if you are getting back into using cannabis is that these days is that marijuana is significantly more powerful than it was years ago. This is because of higher levels of the compound THC being present in the products. THC is a compound called a cannabinoid. There are hundreds of other cannabinoids, but THC has been found by researchers to be the one that gets you high. This is of course is an oversimplification and researchers are making new discoveries everyday in regard to how the different cannabinoids interact with each other to produce different effects. But it is safe to say the higher the percentage of THC on a package the more stoned the product will get you. There are extracts that go as high as 99% THC and even pure crystal THC that is 100%. However, if you are buying dried flower, or buds, the level of THC usually ranges from 10%-20%.
A result of marijuana being illegal all these years, there has been an increase of THC in cannabis. Cannabis growers have been working to create strains of cannabis higher in THC because of the demand for a product that gets you more stoned. This is done by creating hybrids of two plants both high in THC. Cannabis plants have two sexes, male and female. Female plants produce the buds that we smoke and are high in cannabinoids. Male plants on the other hand work to pollinate the female plants and to create seeds. If you find seeds in your buds it is because the female plant you are smoking has been pollinated by a male. The hybrids are thus created by breeding male plants high in THC with female plants also high in THC, and the resulting hybrid will therefore be even higher in THC than the original. After years of black market demand calling for more psychoactive cannabis, the result has been that most strains of cannabis grown today are higher in THC than they once were.
This shift to more psychoactive cannabis high in THC has come at the expense of other cannabinoids that have been bred out of the plants. The most significant of these is CBD. Traditionally CBD and THC have held about equal parts in cannabis, being the two most abundant cannabinoids found in the plant. Both CBD and THC were found around the same time. While researchers found THC to be responsible for the intoxicating effects of cannabis, CBD was not found to have any psychoactive properties. CBD was instead found to have potential therapeutic use value as a neuroprotectant, a pain reliever, an anti-inflammatory, an appetite stimulant, and as an antidepressant. However, over the years it has all but been bred out of the major cannabis strains. This is because not only does it have no intoxicating properties, it has also been found that CBD counteracts many of the intoxicating properties of THC. Today, because the medical value of cannabis is becoming more appreciated, there has been a resurgence in CBD. Growers are now breeding plants high in CBD and low in THC. CBD is being recognized as one of the most promising therapeutic compounds out there and studies are currently taking place to better understand it. There are many challenges to studying cannabis, including the plants legal status, and therefore there are few conclusive studies into the medical benefits of the plant. However, there is a plethora of anecdotal evidence from patients describing the positive effects cannabis has had on their own situations. Many of the greatest scientific breakthroughs of all time have been based on anecdotal evidence that is then taken into the lab and expanded upon to create empirical results.
One of the most promising applications of CBD is CBD oil and extracts. These are often made from hemp. Hemp and marijuana are both considered cannabis, but they have some key differences. Hemp is most often used for industrial purposes, such as making fiber and food. Marijuana on the other hand is most often used for smoking or getting high. Hemp contains very low levels of THC and higher levels of CBD, while marijuana contains high levels of THC and low levels of CBD. Therefore, it makes sense that CBD oil should be made from hemp and not marijuana. Because it is made from hemp, which is legal in many parts of the world CBD oil is legal throughout Europe and sold as a dietary supplement. The United States has recently introduced a law specifically making CBD oil illegal. While CBD is not on the list of schedule I drugs like THC is, CBD oils almost always contain at least some amount of THC. For example, CW Hemp, one the most respected producers of CBD oil, says that their extracts contain no more than 0.3% THC. While this may have a subtle psychoactive effect on some individuals, it is not enough to get you full on stoned the way an extract with higher levels of THC might. So according to the federal government, even though CBD oil has been found to treat childhood epilepsy, it should be illegal. Luckily for patients seeking the benefits of CBD oil, many states have passed legislation making CBD oil legal. This gray area between federal and state legality may turn some people off from using cannabis products such as CBD oil, but the government has released statements saying they will not go after individual users or retailers, and that their goal is rather to keep profits out of the hands of organized crime.
CBD is promising for a number of reasons, not only for the therapeutic benefits it presents, but also for its lack of side effects. Some studies find that a combination of THC and CBD is more effective for treatment of many conditions, rather than just individual CBD and THC extracts. Furthermore, full plant extracts that maintain the integrity of all the compounds present in cannabis seem to be the best suited for therapeutic application. It is still unclear to scientists how all the different chemicals in cannabis interact. Maybe someday we will have a grasp on this mystery and be able tailor specific combinations of cannabinoids to treat specific conditions, but for now it seems that full plant extracts using all the cannabinoids are the most effective. That said, patients looking for a treatment that has very low side effects may want to look to CBD for this. There has been evidence in many studies that show a correlation between the use of cannabis and patients using fewer opioids. Unlike opioids, cannabis does not create a physical dependence, meaning that there are no physical withdrawal associated with stopping cannabis use and furthermore there is no risk of overdosing on cannabis.
CBD is an incredibly promising compound that has a wide range of potential therapeutic uses. In order to get it to the point of being officially acknowledged as a treatment for things such as chronic pain, many more studies are necessary. Most of the cannabis studies of the past few decades have looked at the negative effects of cannabis and not the positive therapeutic applications. This is beginning to change as marijuana is being more socially and politically accepted. Obstacles still stand in the way of researchers conducting widespread tests on cannabis, but studies continue to go on and hopefully someday we will fully understand the amazing plant that has been used medically for thousands of years. If you are thinking about beginning to use cannabis it is important you talk with your doctor about what kind of treatment is best for you. Hopefully someday soon, we will live in a world where the therapeutic benefits of cannabis are more fully understood, and we will be able to develop treatments for some of the most difficult diseases we now face. More studies are certainly needed to unlock these mysteries and researchers are working everyday on them. The more freedom researchers are granted to study cannabis the better for us all.

"But the Spanish Lady was not so easily defeated. The sick-list swiftly rose to over ten thousand. Hundreds of police officers and trolley drivers fell ill. So many firemen were sick that the capital's Fire Marshall feared 'the whole city'd burn to the ground if a fire ever got started'. The Federal government was paralysed and the courts went into recess. At Herbert Hoover's Food Administration, half the employees went off sick. Congress dosed its public galleries and at the State Department staff were 'aired' for twenty minutes every day, taken outside and instructed to breathe deeply. As he studied Washington's mortality figures at the Vital Statistics Bureau, a clerk named W. E. Turton collapsed and died. The Washington Evening Star ran a regular column entitled 'Prominent People Who Have Died of Influenza'.
As soon as we returned to Washington the 'flu epidemic, which had been raging in various parts of the country, struck us with full force. The city was fearfully overcrowded, the departments had had to expand and take on great numbers of clerical workers. New bureaus had been set up, girls were living two and three to a room all over the city, and when the 'flu hit there were naturally not enough hospitals to accommodate those who were stricken. The Red Cross organized temporary hospitals in every available building, and those of us who could were asked to bring food to these various units, which often had no kitchen space at all.
Before I knew it, all my five children and my husband were down with the 'flu, and three of the servants. We succeeded in getting one trained nurse from New York ... this nurse was put in charge of Elliott [aged eight years old] who had double pneumonia. My husband was moved into a little room next to mine, and John, the baby, had his crib in my bedroom, for he had bronchial pneumonia. There was little difference between day and night for me, and Dr Hardin, who worked as hard as he possibly could every minute of the time, came in once or twice a day and looked over all my patients. He remarked that we were lucky that some of us were still on our feet, for he had families with nobody able to stand up.
"Despite the constant anxiety for her own family, Eleanor tried to take the opportunity to do some good in Washington: 'If all the children were asleep I went in the car and visited the Red Cross."

Q: how to replace the special character with escape character my $c=  'ODD_`!"£$%^&*(){}][@@;:/?.>,<|\'

I want to replace all of them into as special character
how achiveve this in faster way ..
my $c=  'ODD_\`\!\"\£\$\%\^\&\*\(\)\{\}\]\[\@\,\;\:\/\?\.\>\,\<\|\\'

A: Use quotemeta:
#!/usr/bin/env perl

use warnings; use strict;

my $c = 'ODD_`!"£$%^&*(){}][@@;:/?.>,<|\\';

print quotemeta($c), "\n";

Note that your definition of $c would not compile as you have to escape \ even in single quoted strings.

A: While I think that Sinan's answer is correct for what I am assuming you need (based on your list of characters to escape), for completeness I will add the module URI::Escape which escapes the metacharacters in HTML text. It does seem that it has some facility to specify the unsafe characters though, so perhaps it could help you too.

Have you ever seen Money Saving Mom's article about feeding yourself on $30 a week? It showed up in my Pinterest feed a while back, and I was super inspired when I saw it.
It's so simple, no coupon clipping or deal crunching. Just a good old fashioned shopping list and menu plan.
Even though that particular plan wouldn't work for us because of Gabriel's food allergies (specifically, he's allergic to gluten), I knew there had to be a few substitutions we could use to still come up with a bare bones, $30 or less gluten-free recipe meal plan.
After some more thought, (about the fact that I function so much better on a relatively high protein diet) I got to wondering how much protein I could pack into such a tight grocery budget.
With that in mind, I drug Gabriel and the kids through the store, where I basically wrote down how much everything cost, then we went home and crunched a bunch of numbers.
I'm so excited to report that you can have a healthy diet for a mere $20.00 per week!
Mine feeds two people based on a 2,000 calorie per day diet – which is why this actual list totals $40.
It Provides a daily average of 117 grams of protein per person.
Is all real food. I suppose some folks might consider packaged corn tortillas to be manufactured food, but they're basically made with masa and water. By the way, if you have time and inclination, you could buy a bag of masa and make your own tortillas instead. They'll be cheaper, and taste way, way better.
Can easily be made dairy-free by swapping out the butter for another cooking oil, and the cheese for your preference of substitute.
Update: This is new and exciting! Now you can get the $20 Meal Plan Printable Shopping list and meal plan for free by filling out the form below!
Bean and cheese burritos with salsa.(make refried beans in the crockpot at the beginning of the week to cut out prep time).
Chicken-veggie soup (carrots, onions, potatoes, rice).
Potato and broccoli soup (using broth from chicken you've cooked previously), devilled eggs.
Baked (or slow cooked) chicken and rice, veggies.
Also see: The $20 meal plan for more recipe ideas.
There are endless variations you can make on these. Get creative! Add different spices, makes casseroles, etc. it doesn't have to be the same meal every night.
The idea with this menu is to keep your grocery expenditure down as low as possible, so that you can save as much of your grocery budget back as you can to take advantage of sales and such to create a stockpile so that eventually you're eating a much wider variety of things, but still not spending a lot.
I'll be honest though, I like this menu a lot the way it is! Although I do think I'd like some beef eventually.
Does the $20 grocery budget still work? A lot of you have left some very heated comments here, and I do realize that every area differs in the prices you will find, but I whole-heartedly believe that even the biggest skeptic will be surprised by how cheaply they can get groceries if they broaden their shopping habits a little.
Is that a normal price? Well, that depends. It's NOT a normal price for any other store I've been to in a 100 mile radius of that Aldi. But it's normal for THAT ALDI.
So every time we go (it's 60 miles away, so not often!), we stock up, and as a result, the butter we use every day costs us less than $2/lb.So YES this shopping plan does work – but not if you shop at Kroger or Whole Foods.
Do I still maintain that the $20 grocery budget works?
Yes – with some modifications. I find it very difficult to stay within that budget when buying small quantities. Instead, I buy Chicken leg quarters in 10# bags for $0.49-$0.59/lb (Most stores in our area carry these bulk-ish bags including Aldi, HEB, and Walmart). This is actually cheaper per pound than the 2015 price I quoted above.
On the other hand, unless there's a really great sale (the last one was the week before Christmas), it's nearly impossible to find butter for under $2/lb anymore.
It seems like the price of a lot of the other basics has stayed relatively the same – potatoes, vegetables, dry beans, tortillas.
The biggest trick to saving money on your grocery budget is being willing to find and try new things. Adapt!
This is a good list! ! it's totally possible to eat healthy on a budget!
I enjoyed the article. While I may not be under the $20 budget, the plan still keeps my budget lower than before. Every budget is not black or white , you need to have those grey areas to account for personal taste or life style. Keep up the good work!
08/11/2018 – Prices in Kent WA at WinCo were US$44.31 (without tax) for these same items. Nothing was organic and a few things were on sale, but on a normal non-sales day it would probably be closer to US$50.00. Does it "work" as a $20/person/day thing here? It probably could with a few more coupons or sales. But it works generally. and that's what matters at the end of the day!
Wow. I wish prices were like that in Southern California!!

Trade war keeps China's factories in reverse gear for third month
Lusha Zhang, Ryan Woo
BEIJING (Reuters) – China's factory activity shrank for the third month in a row in July, an official survey showed, underlining the growing strains on the world's second-biggest economy as the Sino-U.S. trade war hits business profits, confidence and investment.
Wednesday's weak manufacturing reading adds to global growth risks and explains why policymakers around the world have stepped up easing measures, with some others considering doing so soon, to counter the fallout from international trade frictions.
The Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) rose to 49.7 in July, from the previous month's 49.4, China's National Bureau of Statistics said on Wednesday, but remained below the 50-point mark that separates growth from contraction on a monthly basis. Analysts polled by Reuters had predicted a reading of 49.6.
Deteriorating global demand saw export orders shrinking for the 14th month, the survey showed, though the sub-index ticked up fractionally to 46.9 from June's 46.3.
The contraction in total new orders also moderated slightly, while factory output offered one brighter note, with growth quickening this month.
The official gauge came on the second day of U.S. and Chinese trade negotiators' meeting in Shanghai, their first in-person talks since a G20 truce last month, though expectations for progress remain low.
"We expect that this downward trend in manufacturing will continue in 2019 until the trade and technology negotiations make some progress," said Iris Pang, ING's Greater China economist.
In a row that has dragged on for more than a year, the world's two largest economies have slapped billions of dollars of tariffs on each other's imports, disrupting global supply chains and shaking financial markets. That has prompted central banks from South Korea to Australia to South Africa to cut rates, with the U.S. Federal Reserve also widely expected to ease later on Wednesday for the first time since the global financial crisis.
Sluggish demand at home and abroad has led to a months-long spell of depressed activity for China's manufacturers, and a sharp U.S. tariff hike announced in May threatens to crush already-thin profit margins.
The survey also showed persistent decline in orders from domestic customers, and even though demand conditions improved slightly it still remained worryingly weak despite a raft of recent stimulus measures.
Some manufactures have cut this year's sales target as clients delay purchase orders in a wait-and-see approach, while others have already relocated their production capacity to neighboring countries to avoid the tariff hit. All of this has seen Chinese factories continuing to shed jobs in July.
The pressure on the manufacturing sector and weakening profits have prompted analysts' warnings of a further period of stress for China before growth is expected to stabilize or recover.
MORE STIMULUS
The survey also showed small and mid-sized manufacturers fared worse than last month, while activity in larger companies, many of which are state-controlled, jumped back to expansion territory in July. That suggests policymakers' efforts to support the private sector are yet to bear fruit.
So far, Beijing has relied on a combination of fiscal stimulus and monetary easing to support an economy growing at its slowest pace in nearly 30 years, including hundreds of billions of dollars in infrastructure spending and tax cuts for companies.
But the economy has been slow to respond, and business confidence remains shaky, weighing on investment.
A separate official business survey showed activity in China's services sector grew at its slowest pace in eight months in July, knocked by growing pressure on the broader economy from U.S. trade measures, with the official reading at 53.7 in July from 54.2 in June.
Services growth was partly dragged by a contraction in the property sector, while activity in the construction industry also slumped, indicating recent fiscal stimulus is yet to fully flow through to infrastructure investment.
Beijing has been counting on a strong services sector to pick up the slack left by faltering trade as it tries to shift the economy away from a dependence on heavy industry and manufacturing exports.
China's top decision-making body of the ruling Communist Party said on Tuesday that government will step up efforts to boost demand and support the economy, but will not use the property market as a form of short-term stimulus.
"The Politburo meeting suggested government had no plans to loosen the real estate market. We expect property investment to slow in the second half of this year, and that would weigh on the construction sector," said Liu Xuezhi, an analyst with Bank of Communications.
China observers have said that Beijing's recent growth-boosting measures will take time to filter through to the broader economy, and many analysts are of the view that further stimulus is needed to prevent a deeper downturn and to help stabilize growth.
"With the headwinds to growth from U.S. tariffs, cooling global demand and tighter property controls likely to intensify, we continue to anticipate further monetary easing in the coming months," said Julian Evans-Pritchard, senior China economist at Capital Economics.

If you know me or have been following my work for any length of time, you'll know I love to draw on public transport systems around the world. Why? Because trains, subways and buses are the arteries and nervous systems of the cities they service and the people who use them their lifeblood. And passengers are too busy looking at their phones or being asleep to notice me scribbling away doing portraiture. (It's free life drawing!) I like the sense that you may never see the people you pass or travel with ever again, but here they are, captured in a sketch.

In the realtor.com 2017 housing forecast, they name what they perceive to be the best real estate markets in the nation, They name Phoenix as they will be the number one market in the coming year out of 100 local metro areas…… See the link below for the complete article..but to summarize, realtor.com looked at many of the metrics that point to a strong market in phoenix and Tucson area.
The article sites a strong local economy, low unemployment rates and strong population and job growth as the contributing factors as to why Phoenix is expected to see an overall sales growth of 7.2 percent and a price increase of almost 6 percent. With affordable housing (median home price $300,000) this also attracts retiring baby boomers and first home Millennials which will be a strong driving force in the years ahead.
There's also good news for Phoenix's southern neighbor Tucson. The real estate group ranks it as the ninth best housing market in 2017 with an expected 6.1 percent jump in prices and 5.5 percent gain in sales.
We are bullish on Phoenix & Tucson and how a strong housing market will be good for the overall local economy which will be good for apartment investing as well.

Cheque Your Privilege! 'Equipay' App Splits Dinner Bills According to Race and Gender
FRED TANNEAU/AFP/Getty Images
It's a huge dilemma for progressives: on the one hand, it's terribly patriarchal for a man to pay for a woman's dinner. On the other hand, the gender pay gap of feminist mythology holds that women only make 77 cents for every dollar earned by a man. So isn't the failure to pay just another contribution to structural sexism?
Equipay, a new app for Android and the iPhone has a solution. Developed by San Francisco-based "comedian" Luna Malbroux, the app divides bills between dinner guests according to their race and gender. For example, black women, who allegedly make just 64 cents on the dollar compared to white men, would only pay 64 per cent of their share of the bill.
According to the app's website, "Equipay helps you avoid the entrenched discrimination that exists in our society. It doesn't split the bill equally—it splits it equitably. You pay what you should to balance out the wage gap."
The app is free to use — unless you're a member of a "high-privilege group." Then there's a surcharge. As the site explains: "When dining out with a high privilege group, Equipay automatically adds an EquipayItBack Surcharge. This fee subsidizes meals for others and funds Equipay's charitable arm. Thanks!"
Last but not least, the app allows users to let their followers know whenever they've used the app to smash the patriarchy at the dinner table. In a live presentation of the app, Melbroux described how a user, "Graham" shares his Equipay-powered purchase on social media "to show that he is a social justice ally."
Of course, having informed the world of his use of Equipay, it remains to be seen if "Graham" will ever be invited out for a meal again.
The app won first prize at San Francisco's "Comedy Hack Day," which brings "comedians, developers, and designers together." However, Melbroux insists that the app isn't a joke. In an interview with Care2, she expressed hopes that the app would start a serious conversation: "I hope that this, more than anything, starts a discussion and helps people to start thinking a little bit differently about how we can use more technology and more innovation to address inequality and wage inequality."
For the rest of us, the app's social media sharing function will give us a useful list of people to never invite out for dinner.

Recently as I was driving from one appointment to another, I started dreaming about sitting down in front of a beautiful tomato accompanied with bufala mozzarella. This is hardly a seasonal desire. Tomatoes are disappointing and bufala, as far as I understand, is out of season.
Almost very last minute I heard to go to Trader Joe's. It's on the way. I did not have time to hesitate, so I took the next exit and did as was suggested.
I was not disappointed, as they had imported bufala from Italy waiting just for me.
That is why I thought I was at Trader Joe's.
And the Universe had another reason. A gem, waiting for me in the parking lot.
As I made my way to my car, I noticed an older woman looking at me. I was focused on the task at hand, as I had an appointment to get to…I got in the car and she was now literally following me, attempting to engage me. She was asking for a ride. She lived just down the street, would I do her a favor and bring her home?

Is Sexting Illegal in Texas?
In recent years, sexting has emerged as a cultural phenomenon with the potential for societal and personal consequences. The widespread availability of cell phones has played a part in the increasing frequency of sexting cases. As cell phones and other communication technology have become cheaper and more powerful, criminal cases involving cell phones have become more commonplace.
Several states, including Texas, have recently passed new laws regarding how sexting cases should be handled by the courts. In part, these new laws change the way in which some sexting offenses are penalized. However, sexting cases still have the possibility of serious legal punishments.
What is Sexting?
The commonly accepted definition of sexting is the act of sending sexually explicit messages, videos or photos, usually via cell phones. While it is possible for adults to engage in sexting, criminal cases involving sexually explicit text messages focus on minors who engage in such activity. For this reason, sexting is sometimes referred to as "juvenile cyber-sex."
Sexting laws are designed to prevent abuse or exploitation of minors by adults. If minors send sexually explicit messages, photos or videos to adults, the minors' safety, privacy and future may be compromised.
Penalties for Sexting
Recently, the state of Texas amended its laws regarding sexting offenses. In September of 2011, Texas passed a new law that allowed prosecutors to seek different punishments in certain sexting cases. Prior to the change, anyone convicted of a sexting offense could face a felony charge of child pornography. A conviction for this crime could mean prison time and lifelong registration as a sex offender.
The new law allows for more leeway in sexting cases that meet certain criteria. For example, a minor who is caught sending sexually explicit messages to another minor may be charged with a less serious sexual offense than child pornography. This means that if an underage person sends an explicit text to their boyfriend or girlfriend, they may not face the same penalties as an adult who sends explicit messages to a minor.
Under the new law, minors convicted of sexting can face:
A Class C Misdemeanor charge.
Up to $4000 in fines.
Up to one year in county jail.
Mandatory participation in an educational program designed to explain the dangers of sexting and how to prevent abuse or exploitation of minors by adults.
In summation, sexting is still definitely illegal in Texas. This is especially true for cases involving a minor sexting with an adult. Also, a minor convicted of repeated sexting offenses with another minor can face felony charges for subsequent offenses.
The best way to understand the new laws is to consult with an experienced attorney.

Pep thanks Bernardo for reinforcing The Best in the league
Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has thanked Bernardo Silva for helping to reinforce it for everyone to see. He is currently the best player in this league. After the Norwegian national team midfielder scored two beautiful goals for the team to thrash Watford 3-1.
"Overall, a good performance. We missed many opportunities. And hopefully next game will turn it into more goals," Pep said after the game.
"The game should have ended sooner. We have routines to do to ensure consistency in the way we play, in football the hardest thing is to pass the ball into the net. But the way we play is good again.
But Bernardo did not suddenly become important in his past half a dozen matches. He has been colossal for City all season. In games at Liverpool and Chelsea that Guardiola highlighted, he contributed neither a goal nor an assist, but he was probably the best player on the pitch in both.
We scored three beautiful goals and should have scored more."
"I have to thank Bernardo, because after what I said. (In the middle of the week that Bernardo is the best in the league right now) the work he does. He didn't go wrong with what I said so thank you very much, he did a great job. He is very important to us."

ABOUT PAXCON
PAXCON® was created and developed by LINE-X® as a high-performance, blast-resistant coating suitable for a wide variety of applications. LINE-X is constantly looking for new and innovative uses for its polyurethane/polyurea-based products. It is this pioneering spirit that led LINE-X to explore new blast and spall mitigation technologies, against the backdrop of increasing homeland security concerns and anti-terrorist tactical development. PAXCON protective coatings have been recognized by the U.S. military and the defense industry for their high levels of protection.
PAXCON is utilized by government and military contractors, as well as private security firms to safeguard assets. Critical buildings can be coated with PAXCON to help protect personnel against bomb blasts and fragmentation. Fragmentation or debris from an exploded structure is the number one source of injury in a bomb blast. The technology in PAXCON is formulated to mitigate the effects of an explosion by containing the fragmented pieces of the building. The same is true for bullet fragmentation or spalling. After striking an armored plate, a projectile will spall into deadly shrapnel that can cause further injury. PAXCON allows the bullet to penetrate the coating but as the bullet hits the armor and spalls, the coating contracts to catch and contain the fragments.
Government, military and private buildings around the globe, including the U.S. Pentagon
Hummvees
Spall Protection
During a ballistic attack, most severe injuries occur, and a significant amount of lives are lost, due to ballistic fragmentation or spalling. PAXCON mitigates this problem by encapsulating the fragments, which will remain trapped in the PAXCON material, posing no secondary damage. PAXCON can be sprayed over virtually any surface hard enough to cause a projectile to spall, such as aluminium, ceramic, or steel.
BLAST MITIGATION
Known in military and research circles as an Energy Resistant Coating (ERC), this PAXCON coating is incredibly strong yet flexible enough to bend with the substrate. This means that walls outfitted with the unique PAXCON coating can withstand explosions up to 20 times greater than a normal, uncoated wall.
PAXCON partners with the industry's most respected testing and research laboratories in the world to analyse PAXCON's revolutionary military and defence coatings. The results from these tests below further demonstrate the revolutionary protection and durability that is PAXCON.
BLAST MITIGATION FIELD TESTS
PAXCON passed blast mitigation field tests conducted by the Energetic Materials Research & Testing Center (EMRTC) at New Mexico Tech and the Air Force Research Laboratory as part of the Force Protection Equipment Demonstration (F.P.E.D.) show.
At F.P.E.D., PAXCON was demonstrated daily and endorsed by Air Force representatives and encouraged LINE-X to tell "the world" that PAXCON was the only coating, out of 27 selected, to pass ALL of their bomb blast tests.
At the demo site, two 9′ x 9′ walls were erected as the "typical construction that one would find on mobile military buildings … used extensively in Southwest Asia by the U.S. Military." These were constructed using 2×4 studs, 16″ on centre, corrugated aluminium siding, and particle board panelling. One of the two walls was coated with PAXCON. In this test, 50 pounds of TNT was used at a distance of 35 feet. The uncoated wall (white) was destroyed, while the PAXCON covered wall was unharmed.
The Air Force Research Lab, during a previous test, found that it took the equivalent of at least 1,000 pounds of TNT to "make PAXCON fail and even then it only tore the coating … fragmentation was still averted. PAXCON could save lives if applied to buildings subjected to bomb force."
ANTI-SPALLING TEST
In September 2007, PAXCON was certified by H.P. White Laboratory, Inc., one of the oldest and most respected ballistic and research centres in the nation, for its ability to protect against spalling and fragmentation during a ballistic attack.
All testing was conducted on an indoor range at ambient conditions using various calibre ammunition. The test samples were sprayed with PAXCON material and rigidly mounted 60 feet from the muzzle of the test barrels to produce zero-degree obliquity impacts. The projectiles were encapsulated in the coating, posing no further damage from spalling or fragmentation.
AR500 Armor didn't make the move to LINE-X easily. We made the move in this direction based on our own testing, and Line-X being the proven leader in the protective coating industry and in fragmentation and spall mitigation.

Watford's FA Cup final with Manchester City will kick off at 5pm on Saturday May 18, it has been confirmed.
Javi Gracia's men are are chasing glory for the first time in the competition and have the added incentive of blocking City from securing an unprecedented treble, with Pep Guardiola's side already lifting the Carabao Cup this season.
Watford reached the final after a dramatic comeback from two-goals down to defeat Wolves 3-2 in extra time, with Gerard Deulofeu scoring a brace, while Gabriel Jesus scored the only goal of the game for City as they saw off Brighton.
Both teams are set to receive an allocation of 28,000 tickets for the final at Wembley, with City being allocated the east side of the stadium and Watford fans set for the west.
Ticket prices have been announced at £45, £70, £115 and £145 for adults with clubs yet to announce any concession prices which may apply.
City are hunting for their sixth FA Cup title and their first since beating Stoke City 1-0 in 2011 final. As for Watford, this will be just their second FA Cup final appearance after losing the 1984 final to Everton.
For those unable to make it to the stadium on the day, the game will be broadcast live on BBC One and BT Sport as well as on the BBC iPlayer.


At the core of Maggi's marketing and branding is 'Khushiyan' (Happiness). The parent brand, Nestle, is trying to position it as a brand which is synonymous with happiness, friendship and togetherness.
Their TVCs featuring Bollywood legend Amitabh Bachchan is themed around the same philosophy and has been replicated in the online world too.
So you will find the same personality extending to their communication on social media as well.
If you're a fan of Maggi, the Meri Maggi Facebook page will get you hooked instantly. As expected, the page is heavy on images but there is a twist to it. Unlike Sunfeast and Cafe Coffee Day, the images are neither visually brilliant nor shot by professionals. And not to forget their hinglish way of talking.
These are real photos being shared by Maggi lovers with the page.
Sticking to its theme, the updates are about how Maggi brings people together for a happy time. And it is of little surprise that they are having an amazing engagement rate!
But the best thing is how they have managed to crowdsource all their content and created a buzzing community – a community that loves them absolutely!
Thoroughly disappointed to see that there is no Twitter handle for Maggi. Just do a Twitter search and look at the number of people gushing about Maggi over there!
Okay this is getting repetitive and boring. Another brand, another YouTube channel, full of TVCs. And for a brand which is as famous (and loved) as Maggi, they don't even have more than 40k video views for their videos.
Well, Top Ramen and Sunfeast Yippee noodles are still finding feet with their social media activities, so I am taking up Ching's Secret as Maggi's competitor. It is the only brand that can come close to Maggi's social media presence, or does it? Let's see.
To begin with, Ching's Secret's social media strategy is not as focussed as Maggi. While Maggi is about warmth and togetherness, Ching's Secret is almost everywhere. Only recently have they started the 'Hunger ki Bajao' campaign. Hope it works for them.
But until then, the following comparison between Maggi and Ching's Secret's engagement is self-explanatory.
Mind you, they are not much far apart when it comes to the number of 'likes' each page has. They would have got brownie points for having a Twitter presence but unfortunately, it is not active since more than a year.
Kudos to Maggi for its brilliance in porting its offline image so perfectly to the online world. Not only has it engaged beautifully with its TG, it has also earned die-hard fans out of them!
And this earned loyalty has been a combined result of the product quality and good content marketing.
Undoubtedly, people love Maggi. Their strategy has worked and the brand is as successful as ever both online and offline.
To conclude, Maggi is one of the finest examples of crowdsourcing and content marketing on Facebook. Great job that needs to be extended to other platforms as well.

Ship Canal Water Quality project update 12/14/20
City of Seattle, Washington sent this bulletin at 12/14/2020 08:08 AM PST
Dear neighbors,
We anticipate completing our secant pile walls in Fremont and Queen Anne this month. Thank you for your patience during this important, yet noisy, activity.
In Wallingford, secant pile wall preparation will begin this month. Read on for more information about what this work will look like, and if you haven't already, check out this video from a prior King County project that shows secant pile wall construction underway.
Visit our Flickr page to see photos of recent construction activities.
Over the weekend, we completed the project's largest concrete pour for the shaft floor (see photo above and more here). The floor is 14-ft thick and 87-ft wide and required deliveries from about 350 concrete trucks! For the next few weeks, we'll be installing final concrete walls and electrical equipment. This work is anticipated to last through early January. Additionally, we expect to receive and assemble equipment for tunneling, such as cranes, between January and April. During this time, you can expect:
Trucks coming in and out of the site to deliver equipment.
Intermittent days of large concrete pours. On these days there will be many trucks delivering concrete to the site, back to back. Work on these pour days may occur well beyond regular working hours due to the amount of concrete that needs to be placed. We anticipate the next large pour to take place in late December.
Working hours are expected to be 7 am - 5 pm Monday through Friday. Night and weekend work may occur to maintain progress.
East Ballard
Crews will begin a new method of soil stabilization work over the next few weeks. New equipment will arrive on site and crews will prepare the work area on NW 45th St. For the next few weeks, you should anticipate:
NW 45th St closed to traffic; vehicles must detour onto NW 46th St.
Burke-Gilman Trail users remain detoured to the north side of NW 45th St; flaggers to help direct traffic during daytime working hours. Please follow all detour guidance on site. Bicyclists must cross train tracks at 90-degree angles. Please use extra caution in wet weather as ramps may be slippery.
11th Ave NW will remain open now through Dec. 31 to lessen impacts to holiday traffic in the area.
Regular work hours will be Monday through Friday, 7 am to 5 pm. Night and weekend work may occur to maintain progress.
See anticipated traffic impacts through 2022 on our website.
Secant pile wall construction should wrap up just before Christmas. Once this activity is complete, crews will dewater the site (pumps inside drilled wells are used to draw down groundwater levels) and will excavate the shaft. Excavation should be relatively quieter, and we will provide more information about that activity in our next update. For the next two weeks, you should anticipate:
Heavy equipment on site such as the drill rig, an oscillator, and a crane.
Trucks coming in and out of the site to haul away excavated material and deliver concrete.
Noise and vibration from the drill rig. You may be able to feel the vibration which is expected. We are monitoring vibration levels on site to ensure they are within allowable levels.
NW 36th St between Leary Way NW and 3rd Ave NW closed (through remainder of the project).
Pedestrians detoured to the north side of Leary Way NW.
A pump and bypass system running 24/7 to re-route an existing drainage line around the secant pile construction. This system is powered by a generator and will be in place through the end of the year.
Regular work hours will be Monday through Friday, 7 am to 5 pm.
For the next few weeks, crews will be grading and prepping the site for secant pile wall construction. Crews will dewater the site (pumps inside drilled wells are used to draw down groundwater levels), bring in equipment and will begin excavating for the secant pile guide walls.
For the remainder of the month, you should anticipate:
More equipment staged on site.
Noise from the drill rig installing dewatering wells.
Noise and vibrations from excavation and concrete trucks moving in and out.
In January, we'll start secant pile wall construction. In an effort to be as transparent as possible, we want to let you know it will involve several months of intense, loud construction with long work days at the project's Wallingford site.
During secant pile construction you can expect:
Noise from the drill rig. This rig is loud and work will start as early as 7 am as allowed by City of Seattle code. We start early in the morning to allow the contractor to complete more of the work during daylight hours to improve safety, to maximize the use of expensive, heavy machinery each day and, to complete work as efficiently and cost-effectively as possible.
Vibration from the drill rig. You may be able to feel the vibration in your home or business. This is expected. We are monitoring vibration levels on site to ensure they are within allowable levels.
Normal work hours are from 7am to 5pm, Monday through Friday, although work may extend into the early evening, on occasion to complete the concreting of a pile. It's possible the contractor may also work on Saturdays as needed.
Learn more about the Wallingford secant pile wall.
Secant pile wall construction nearing completion
Secant pile wall construction is complete! Over the next few weeks, we'll dewater the site (pumps inside drilled wells are used to draw down groundwater levels), demobilize equipment, and begin excavating the vertical shaft. During this time, you should anticipate:
Trucks coming in and out of the site to haul away excavated material.
Noise and vibrations typical of a construction site.
The West Ewing Mini Park parking lot closed. This closure is anticipated to last through mid-2023.
A localized Ship Canal Trail detour through summer 2022 (see map).

Location of SwanBay La Maison, Nhon Trach, Dong Nai.
SwanBay La Maison subdivision is located on Dai Phuoc Island, surrounded by Dong Nai River, opposite Cat Lai Ferry, adjacent to District 2 and District 9.
The move from SwanBay La Maison.
In addition, SwanBay La Maison inherited the power from the infrastructure of the East, Nhon Trach infrastructure and the main transport axis. In particular, when the Ring Road 3 is completed in 2020, Long Thanh International Airport and the Metro lines will be operational to bring the project many potential values.
With such points, SwanBay La Maison will suit those who want to live in the East, want to relax with their families and relatives over the weekend or real estate investors looking forward to welcome the wave of development of Ring Road 3.
These customers prefer to live in the home rather than live in a condominium. In addition, they are looking for villas in the East Saigon, where the city is investing in transport infrastructure.
During the first phase of the SwanBay project, 21 apartments were sold out only on the day it was released, showing the project's appeal to the market. According to Realestatevietnam survey, customers are mostly buying and staying at home, and there is no need to resell despite many asking and accepting high prices.
SwanBay La Maison is also an option for customers wishing to spend their weekend, Tet holidays with their relatives.
Customers choosing SwanBay La Maison for the weekend or Tet holiday will experience the benefits of the project in general and the particular zone such as 18-hole golf course, marina to visit the island, garden landscape and two artificial landscapes that connect directly to the Dong Nai River.
SwanBay La Maison is not only an ideal retreat, but also attracts interest from investors. Because this is a potential project with high potential in the future when Long Thanh International Airport goes into operation.
At that time, SwanBay La Maison on the road from Thu Thiem Tunnel / Phu My Bridge, Long Thanh – Dau Giay Highway, Highway 51, Ton Duc Thang Street and Dai Phuoc Bridge. It is expected that in 2020 – 2021 through SwanBay La Maison will be from Thu Thiem Tunnel / Phu My Bridge, Long Thanh – Dau Giay Expressway, Ring Road 3, District 9 Bridge and Cau Dai Phuoc.
Currently, SwanBay's transfer market is quite good from VND27-28 million / sqm. Expected, SwanBay La Maison opened this sale can range from VND29 – 30 million /sqm. According to rumor information, the price from $ 1,300 / sqm.
Expected in early 8/2018, SwanBay La Maison will be open for sale. The rate of reservation is about VND100 – 200 million / booking. For the mansion, the reservation is VND 200 million.

Gyalwa Rinpoche: INVESTIGATE (Dorje Shugden)!
Author Topic: Gyalwa Rinpoche: INVESTIGATE (Dorje Shugden)! (Read 848 times)
His Holiness the Dalai Lama recently chose to teach (give commentary) on none-other than Lama Tsongkhapa's great works as a way into the vast array of teachings by Arya Nagarjuna.
On the last day of teachings, Gyalwa Rinpoche stated that Lama Tsongkhapa, in the "Great Treatise", recommends scrutinizing the teacher by examining his teaching. "Having faith is one thing, but it's necessary to be more astute, because sometimes teachers make mistakes."
Gyalwa Rinpoche then launched into making this statement:
"For example, Kyabjé Phabongka Rinpoché had great disciples like Kyabjé Trijang Rinpoché, but, to be frank, he was mistaken in his propitiation of Gyalpo Shukden. You need to have pure vision with regard to the teacher as a person, but should critically examine what he teaches. I raised objections to the practice of Shukden and later discovered that the Great Fifth Dalai Lama had been very critical of it in his writings. He wrote that Shukden arose as a result of wrong prayers and was born as a negative being that harms beings and the teachings. This is how the Great Fifth, who was himself an accomplished master, who experienced pure visions and so forth, described Shukden.
"I propitiated Shukden too to begin with, but once I'd examined him and his origins I found that it was not appropriate to do such practice. Now, it's my responsibility to tell people that there is harm, and no benefit, in this practice. By propitiating Shukden people have damaged Tsongkhapa's tradition."
Then Gyalwa Rinpoche closed his 3 days of teachings by once again reminding that "We need to think over this idea of viewing everything a teacher does with pure vision. The Buddha didn't advise us to do that, he encouraged us to examine and investigate even our teachers."
Those who (really) understood Gyalwa Rinpoche's teachings would investigate his teachings as he has unmistakenly advised and this website is such a counterpoint to Gyalwa Rinpoche's statement regarding Dorje Shugden.
"Neither from itself, nor from another, nor from both, nor without a cause, does anything, anywhere, ever, arise." – Lord N?g?rjuna, in M?lamadhyamakak?rika.

Re: Gyalwa Rinpoche: INVESTIGATE (Dorje Shugden)!
The Dalai Lama said we should observe and investigate our teacher but he never tells us how. According to the 50 Stanzas of Guru Devotion, we should observe a teacher before we decide to take refuge in him. Once he becomes our teacher, we should view him one as the Buddha.
I don't really like the statement the Dalai Lama has made. It sounds schimastic, it creates doubt and confuses the student's mind. Instead of encouraging the student to be loyal to the teacher, the Dalai Lama implies that a student can always doubt a teacher.
However, it also means that we can doubt what the Dalai Lama has said. If any teacher can make a mistake, he as a teacher can also make a mistake. There are many evidences showing that Dorje Shugden is not an evil spirit. He is an emanation of Buddha Manjushri.
If you have already done your investigation and have taken tantric vows with your tantric master, then the (tantric) practice requires you to view the whole universe as a perfect Buddhaland including yourself.
But in this case, the Dalai Lama is addressing lay people mostly and as Buddha Shakyamuni and all the teachers teach - investigate. By investigating (vs. having blind faith), you will find the truth and be a real practitioner.
My point is that Gyalwa Rinpoche is asking the world to investigate Dorje Shugden (by visiting this website for example), thereby, coming to conclusions themselves about Dorje Shugden.
Gyalwa Rinpoche is making a very strong point to (even) investigate what he himself says, and not just taking it in hook, line and sinker. This is the true essence of the Dharma. Investigate and find out Truth.
Unfortunately for many, this point may have been totally missed. Sad.
For example, the 5th Dalai Lama constructed a dedicated chapel in Lhasa called Trode Khangsar specifically for the enthronement and propitiation of Dorje Shugden in addition to the prayers he composed praising Dorje Shugden's enlightened qualities.

Prayer to Gyalchen Dorje Shugden by the 5th Dalai Lama
Though unmoving from the sphere of primordial spontaneity,
With wrathful turbulent power, swifter than lightning,
Endowed with heroic courage to judge good and bad,
I invite you with faith, please come to this place!
Robes of a monk, crown adorned with rhinocerous leather hat,
Right hand holds ornate club, left holds a human heart,
Riding various mounts such as nagas and garudas,
Who subdues the mamo's of the charnal grounds, praise to you!
Samaya substances, offerings and torma, outer, inner and secret,
Favorite visual offerings and various objects are arranged.
Although, previously, my wishes were a bit dense,
Do not stop your powerful apparitions, I reveal and confess!
Now respectfully praising with body, speech, and mind,
For us, the masters, disciples, benefactors and entourages,
Provide the good and avert the bad!
Bring increase like the waxing moon in spiritual and temporal realms!
Moreover, swiftly accomplishing all wishes,
According to our prayers, bestow the supreme effortlessly!
And like the jewel that bestows all wishes,
Always protect us with the Three Jewels!

If we take refuge in our Guru and still have doubt then how can we excel in our spiritual practice? Whatever doubt we have should be cleared before we firm with our decision to submit ourselves to learn under one Guru. We can examine what our Guru teaches in the contect of how we improve from the practice given by the Guru but not to doubt if the Guru teaches us has this or that flaws. If we have so much of doubt to one Guru then why are we taking refuge in him? If one is so good that he or she can determine that the Guru is wrong then better stop following the Guru. This is because one has never believed the Guru and always just find fault on the Guru. One would rather spend so much time to focus the wrong perception instead of going all the way with the Guru's advice and instruction where it helps many people recently.
If Shugden is harmful and not advice to be practiced then why not subdue him and this will help many people from being harm (if Shugden is really harmful). Why so many people say Shugden is bad and harmful but no one able to just subdue him just like any highly attaint lamas that subdued spirit from harming people. Why keep saying Shugden is bad and not doing anything with Shugden but imposed a ban on so many people? Why not get rid of one instead of creating so much suffering for many people? This doesn't make sense at all. Don't tell me that there is no one able to subdue Shugden unless Shugden is not a spirit but an enlightened being that's why no one can do anything.
You mean your Guru (if you have one that is) has been telling you to just believe in what he/she says and not investigate? This would be completely against what Buddha Shakyamuni taught which is to investigate the teachings like a goldsmith tests gold.
Taking refuge and investigating are two different things altogether. Perhaps a review of what taking refuge means should be in your next investigation.
Quote from: Ringo Starr on September 11, 2019, 03:37:11 PM
If this is what the Dalai Lama wants people to do, then it is a fair advice. It is true that Buddha Shakyamuni taught us to observe and investigate before we make any conclusion. I must say dorjeshugden.com is a very good site to learn all about Dorje Shugden. The Dorje Shugden controversy is explained very well here with examples given as supporting points.
The ban is imposed using so many illogical reasons. These reasons make it really hard to believe Dorje Shugden is a evil spirit. Unfortunately, there are still many people who don't investigate and just take words from the Dalai Lama literately.
Dorje Shugden ban has caused many unnecessary sufferings to people. It has split the Tibetan and Buddhist community apart. The ban does not bring benefit to anyone. In fact, it creates damages to the Tibetan community. If the CTA really wants the Tibetan to move on, the ban should lifted asap.
Buddha Shakyamuni did not want any of the followers to follow what he said blindly, he wanted the followers to examine, analyse, to experience before agreeing with what he said. It seems like the Dalai Lama is also asking people to do the same, to examine first before coming to a conclusion. But many people who claim to be Buddhists are not the type who study and analyse, they just follow blindly. Even though evidences have been given to prove that Dorje Shugden is an emanation of Buddha Manjushri but most people refuse to accept that. It is indeed a denegerated time.

WATCH: NYCFC publish a pretty awesome video about their "Pigeons" nickname
Well, when you break it down like that...
By Christian A Smith@ChristianSith Mar 26, 2019, 6:13pm EDT
Share All sharing options for: WATCH: NYCFC publish a pretty awesome video about their "Pigeons" nickname
Photo by Eduardo Munoz Alvarez/Getty Images
I'll be the first to admit that when the "Pigeon" nickname first started popping up in regard to New York City FC, I was pretty against it. I mean, pigeons are pretty much rats with wings as far as I'm concerned, especially New York pigeons. They're dirty, they're annoying, they don't move for anyone... they're just a constant nuisance.
But as the club has grown, I've admittedly become more receiving of the nickname. And so has the team. On this year's home kit, a mosaic pigeon is the jock tag. And you know what? I love it!
Earlier today, NYCFC published a video on their YouTube channel detailing the nickname in the form of an interview with the "NYC Pigeon" himself, Omari McCleary. And trust me, it's worth the watch!
Omari's reasoning behind choosing the pigeon mascot to represent NYCFC is quite brilliant. On the nickname, the NYC native said: "On its own, it isn't super amazing. It's strong and beautiful when it's many of them..."
Right on, my guy!

Q: git remote cluster & laptop setup for one developer -- why a "bare" repository? I'm a Mercurial user.  I'm migrating to git for reasons I won't get into.
I'm mostly a development team of one, although the possibility of collaborators exists in the future.  I've used Mercurial in the past to keep track of changes and also to manage development of the same codebase on my laptop as well as a university cluster.
In Mercurial, to keep both my laptop and the cluster up to date I'd create a repository on my laptop, clone it to the cluster,and then push from (if I'd been working on my laptop) or pull to (if I'd been working on the cluster) my laptop and merge as necessary.
I've successfully migrated my mercurial repositories to git. From reading many git discussions on the web, it looks like I then (paraphrasing http://thelucid.com/2008/12/02/git-setting-up-a-remote-repository-and-doing-an-initial-push/)
ssh me@university_cluster.edu
mkdir my_project.git
cd my_project.git
git init --bare
git update-server-info # I skipped this
exit

and then on my laptop:
cd my_project
git remote add origin me@university_cluster.edu:my_project.git
git push -u origin master

My questions, then:
This seems more complicated than it was in Mercurial.  Is this really the "best practice" approach for this?  I thought the whole idea with distributed source control (DSC) is that repositories talk to each other directly and merging is easy. Why the "middle man" approach with a git "bare" repository?  It seems like this results in having to maintain two directories on the remote machine (bare repository and working repository) and perform twice as many "transactions" every time I need to switch from one platform to the other.  That is, every laptop<->cluster switch involves pushing to the remote bare repository and then pulling from the remote bare repository, where before I'd just push (if finishing on my laptop) or pull (if starting on my laptop).
I hope I'm not inviting a Mercurial/Git flame war, I'm just trying to understand the git philosophy with this.

A: Git doesn't update a remote repo's working copy when you push changes.  (That keeps a lot of things simpler, and the remote repo's owner doesn't have files changing right in front of him.)  A non-bare repo would see its head and working copy out of sync with every push.  So Git won't push to a non-bare repo unless you force it to.

NEW YORK (Reuters) – A wire fox terrier won "Best in Show" at the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show in New York on Tuesday, emerging as the top dog among nearly 3,000 barking, tail-wagging competitors.
The animal, named King, captured the most coveted prize at the two-day event at Madison Square Garden, besting challengers from all 50 U.S. states and 14 countries. The competition drew 2,800 dogs from 203 breeds and varieties.
"Tonight is … I can't even describe it," said an emotional Gabriel Rangel, King's handler, on the floor of Madison Square Garden.
"After you win this magnificent show there's really nothing else to win. He should be running around in a field of grass," Rangel said moments after the wire fox terrier won the coveted top prize.
He won the terrier group and claimed the top trophy over finalists from five other groups. The winner of the non-sporting canine group, a schipperke, was ruled ineligible before the "Best in Show" competition began due to ownership eligibility requirements.

Long Term Acute Care
Back to Success Stories
Vibra Hospital of Northwestern Indiana
57-year-old James Keilman is the embodiment of positivity. He takes lemons, turns them into lemonade and shares with those around him.
James is a retired Sergeant after many years in law enforcement. He has worked with children in juvenile detention centers and worked as a liaison for the Boys & Girls Club. He continues to mentor children today.
James's eyes light up when he talks of his own grandsons and his wife, Lorraine. The couple recently celebrated their 33rd wedding anniversary. They love to spoil their grandkids. It was on a trip with the grandkids that things didn't seem right for James.
Before their family vacation began, James was not feeling well. He powered through for his grandson, but his condition worsened throughout the trip. James began to have feverish chills and shakes. Lorraine made the decision to take her husband to the emergency room.
At the ER, they learned James had a serious infection in his knee and an irregular heart beat. After admission, he developed pneumonia. James felt his recovery process was continuously one step forward and ten steps back. With Lorraine by his side, he was determined to heal.
James and his family were not sure what to expect next, but they were anxious about his transfer to Vibra Hospital of Northwestern Indiana. Upon admission, multiple wound infections, high blood sugar and weakness left James bed-bound. Recovery seemed impossible, but James was not ready to give up.
Physical therapy worked with James on proper techniques for safe transfer from bed to wheelchair. "James was very dedicated, doing his exercises in order to get better," recalled Romeo Roldan, his physical therapist. "He performed well with bed-to-wheelchair transfers, and was diligent with his exercise program." James worked toward becoming independent with mobility management. "He was very enthusiastic when we did our therapy treatment," added Roldan.
Vibra's wound care team took extra care when it came to James's wounds. "I was delighted to work with Mr. Keilman, as he had specialty grafts to both his feet," stated Rose Sweeney, Wound Care Coordinator. "It was thrilling to see the progress of the wound healing due to the grafts. He was able to follow necessary guidelines needed to encourage proper healing. He was a joy to work with!"
James's hard work and determination enabled him to return home to his wife, children and grandchildren. "I am a success because of Vibra," James said.
We hope your retirement is filled with love and laughter, Mr. Keilman! We wish you the best of luck on your journey back to better!
