This gives "body building" a whole new meaning.
Researchers from the Heart Research Institute (HRI) have developed a 3D bioprinter, the first of its kind in Australia, that could replace a patient's damaged cells after a heart attack.
"When patients come into the clinic, they would provide us with their cells from their skin," HRI scientist Dr Carmine Gentile explained. "Those cells can generate stem cells and then heart cells." The resulting patch of beating cardiac cells can be stuck directly to a damaged organ following an attack. In order to be sure the patch is the right size and shape, each patient's heart is first scanned to map the damage.
Initially a method used to produce various tools and equipment, 3D printing has been quickly adapted to medicine. All bioprinters are still experimental, however, since their output has not yet been rigorously tested by medical experts.
Bioprinting is no doubt more effective than current methods of coping with heart attacks, which force the heart vessels open to facilitate increased blood flow. Theoretically, this print-and-patch method should work for all patients without fear of rejection.
"We haven't succeeded in finding a solution in replacing the scar muscle or to regenerate hearts. That's one of the holy grails of cardiovascular research at the moment and this is just one potential exciting solution," said Kolling Institute's Gemma Figree, a cardiologist.
This is especially relevant since, according to The Heart Foundation, someone in the US suffers a heart attack every 34 seconds, while someone dies from a heart-related disease every 60 seconds. The costs of heart disease pile up to a hefty $320.1 billion, which also accounts for foregone productivity and healthcare expenditures.
Experts from the HRI believe that the synthetic heart cells could even be used for testing drugs, particularly the side effects that might affect the patient. According to the researchers, these bioprinting methods could be available in about five years. The process will be costly however, as it is expensive to collect biological material to 3D bio-print a patch.

With the proliferation of themed anthologies, an initial reaction is to see what the stories in this volume have in common. I am happy to report that the one thing they all have is quality. As one would expect from this publisher, the stories involve a degree of horror and most of them are contemporary with settings on several continents though most of the authors are American.
Houses, especially ones not lived in for a while are a likely source of terror. Very different stories in this volume take such place as a setting. The most traditional is perhaps
'Jackson House' by Kristin Dearborn when Kelsey, trying to fit in with her peers at her new school agrees to the dare of spending the night in a haunted house. Kelsey's background is slowly revealed as she seems more prepared to face the supernatural than her would-be friend. She is a character I would like to read more about.
The house in 'After Sunset, in the Second Drawing Room Garden' by Felice Picano was never totally unoccupied but on the death of its owner it is bought by a young couple expecting their first child. Here it is the room, rather than the whole house that is haunted and the presence as unfortunate effects on the person who spends time in it. Although a house is the focus of Samuel Marzioli's 'Behind the Walls' it is only part of a walled enclave. When Coen takes up residence in one of the houses he doesn't at first appreciate the presence of the oversized cat that appears to adopt him. It takes him a while to discover that the neighbourhood cats are the protectors of the residents.
While it isn't strictly a house, the large storage unit in 'The Lottons Show' by Marsheila Rockwell and Jeffrey J. Mariotte is the cause of all the trouble. When the rent on the unit stops being paid, Dave Slater opens it up to discover the costumes and props, including puppets, from a TV show he remembers from his childhood. His intention is to sell the contents to cover the arrears. The puppets have other ideas. This is not the first story to have animated toys causing havoc, but this is well handled.
The homes that come into Mason Ian Bundschuh's 'Dead Letter Department' don't exist. When postal worker Caleb is posted back to his home town to care for his frail mother, he is intrigued by the pigeon-hole where the undeliverable letters are put. Some of these are addressed to people who are dead, or to houses that don't exist, yet the pigeon-hole is never emptied but it never gets full. It is a benign spooky story.
None of the other stories are really centred around homes unless the jungle compound in Brian Lillie's 'The Shiro' where the narrator accepts a job, can be counted. Here the hand-picked team are investigating fungi. 'The Coroner's Collector (A Good Body Washed Up On The Beach Story)' by Tom Johnstone is set in Brighton, England is a stolen identity story, while 'Jason A.Wyckoff's 'Florie Detail' is the only one which involves a member of the police force as a central character. Here, the Sherriff is on the fringes of a disaster happening in the city. 'The Desolated Orchard' by John F. D. Taff is part historical and part a musing on what happens to gods when people no-longer believe in them.
All of these stories are excellent, in some cases looking at traditional tropes from different angles. Highly recommended.

A young reader's adaptation of whistleblower and bestselling author Edward Snowden's memoir, Permanent Record—featuring a brand-new afterword that includes resources to learn about the basics of digital security.
In 2013, Edward Snowden shocked the world when he revealed that the United States government was secretly building a system of mass surveillance with the ability to gaze into the private lives of every person on earth. Phone calls, text messages, emails—nothing was safe from prying eyes. Now the man who risked everything to expose the truth about government spying describes for a new generation how he helped build that system, what motivated him to try to bring it down, and how young people can strive to protect their privacy in the digital age.
"Snowden's sprightly prose, his deep technical knowledge, his superb knack for explaining complex matters, his ability to articulate principled action all come together in a book that is, if anything, BETTER than the adult version." —Cory Doctorow, BoingBoing

The Bom002.site is a misleading web-page, already at the first sight of which there are various doubts. This web-site is developed only for one purpose – display misleading advertising (fake alerts) in order to trick you into downloading an questionable software. Its appearance in your internet browser means that an adware (also known as 'ad-supported' software) was installed on your PC system. This type of harmful software does not delete files or infect them, but like a virus can change computer settings such as the default search provider, home page and new tab and download and install malicious extensions which generates tons of pop-up advertisements. All the time, while the adware is running, your web-browser will be fill with undesired advertisements including misleading ads such as those Bom002.site pop up warnings.

The adware responsible for redirecting your web browser to Bom002.site web-site, is the part of the software that is used as an online promotional utility. It is designed with the sole purpose to show dozens of pop-ups, and thus to promote the goods and services in an open web-browser window. Moreover, the adware can substitute the legitimate sponsored links on misleading or even banners that can offer to visit malicious web sites. The reason is simple, many advertisers agree on any ways to attract users to their web pages, so the makers of adware, often forcing users to click on an advertising link. For each click on a link, the makers of the adware receive income.

Changes between Version 1 and Version 2 of T N Balkrishna
Apr 22, 2013, 8:43:44 AM (10 years ago)
T N Balkrishna
Phenomenally successful Kannada comedian. Born in Arasikere, Karnataka. Was sold as a child to adoptive parents to pay his father's medical bills. Lost his hearing as a youth and dropped out of school. Acted in the play Shri Rama Paduka Pattabhishekha (1929); then apprenticed to painter of stage backdrops and later a professional sign painter. Returned to the stage as an actor in Harmonium Master Giri Gowda's group, the Lakshmasani Nataka company, and in Neelkantappa's Gowrishankar Nataka Mandali before joining Gubbi Veeranna's theatre company. His presence was almost mandatory in Kannada films from the early 40s where, adapting the folk form Yakshagana, he formed a bumbling comedy duo with his constant sidekick Narasimhraju. Redefined the tone of 'comedy relief' by adding his own brand of ineffectual villainy. Also wrote some plays and scripts; started the Abhimana Studio in Bangalore (1968). Also starred in some Tamil films but did not succeed because of his difficulty with the language.

I must say, I enjoyed it quite a lot actually. However I don't know whether I will read more Fantasy books. I'm just not a reader I guess. It just takes so long until I get to the end of a book, especially Fantasy books 'cause they are most of the time pretty thick things!
On the other hand… I liked 'The Warrior Heir' from Chima a lot and I didn't need to force myself to read it so… good job Chima!
The first thing I needed to get used to was the English. I never read an English book before so that was a bit difficult in the beginning. I was used to understanding every word completely while I'm reading… I chose to not look up every word I didn't understand right away and after some time I just didn't care anymore. I understood all the key elements and all the things that were happening. Maybe I missed some details but that didn't make me like the book less.
It seems to me that a lot of Fantasy books have a lot of heroic elements in them. Big battles against high powers make me think of some Middle Age events sometimes but I like that 'cause I'm a bit nostalgic myself.
Also the love stories can get my attention! I always imagine them like in those big historic BBC series. Very cool and hard sometimes with very strong men and tiny, beautiful women but oh so so passionate!
I noticed that I couldn't read for a long time. After one or two hours I really needed to stop reading 'cause it made me tired. I really had to concentrate because of the English but the story wasn't always very simple too. Maybe you're laughing now 'Oh weak boy, 'The Warrior Heir' is too difficult for him.' but, you know, I always read after ten in the evening just before I went to bed so... I liked it that way because it was a nice end of the day most of the time but after an hour it really got me nodding. It was not because I didn't like it, I just really had to concentrate very hard!
Looking at everything together… I might read some more Fantasy books. I liked the story and the ethos a lot! But I think I'll keep them for in the holidays when I have lots of time so I don't need to read late in the evening anymore. Those books deserve a better spot in the day, I think.
I hope I inspired some other Fantasy Book laymen to visit their local library, pick one of those books and read it from the beginning till the end. Enjoy!
I live in Belgium and I'm currently studying Biochemistry & Biotechnology at the National University in Ghent. So it's clear that I like Biology and Chemistry besides that I like to write now and then in my mother tongue Dutch but my big passion is music. I have no particular preference for one genre. I just have to feel that the performer sings with a lot of dedication and that the people behind the music only live for their songs and nothing else. This is also the reason why music is so universal. People can sing in all languages they want, it only becomes a real hit if the song feels good and those feelings are the same all over the world. I truly believe that music can make the world a better place because music can say what words leave unspoken.
As an avid reader, it was interesting to read this post from someone who doesn't pick up fiction often. Don't worry Wauter about the book sending you off to sleep. During the work week, I usually only get an hour of reading in before I snore off. My man is use to finding me asleep under a good book. The weekend are when I get in reading for a few hours each night.
P.S. I am nostalgi myself :) .

De oosterse karmozijnbes (Phytolacca esculenta) is een overblijvende plant die behoort tot de karmozijnbesfamilie (Phytolaccaceae). Het is een plant van voedselrijke, vochtige grond. De plant komt van nature voor in Oost-Azië en China en is in Europa ingevoerd en verwilderd.

De plant wordt 1-2 m hoog en vormt een dikke hoofdwortel. De stengels zijn roodachtig en de gaafrandige bladeren elliptisch met een stompe tot spitse of kort toegespitste top.

De oosterse karmozijnbes bloeit in juli en augustus met witachtige bloemen. De vruchtdragende trossen gaan, in tegenstelling tot die bij de westerse karmozijnbes (Phytolacca americana), later niet overhangen. De acht vruchtbeginsels zijn niet met elkaar vergroeid, in tegenstelling tot die van de westerse karmozijnbes. De zwartpurperen vrucht is besachtig. De bessen werden vroeger gebruikt om de roserode verfstof karmozijn te maken. De zaden, de onrijpe bessen en de wortels zijn giftig.

Toepassingen
De oosterse karmozijnbes wordt in Oost-Azië om de eetbare scheuten geteeld. De plant wordt in Europese landen als sierplant beschouwd.

Add 1/4 cup pasta water (it must be hot), the yogurt, a few dashes of hot sauce, and 1/3 of the grated cheese and stir until the cheese has melted.
Stir in remaining cheese, one small handful at a time to prevent clumping.
Add additional pasta water as necessary to thin and melt the cheese sauce.
Add the bacon, mix well, and serve.


Will I get deposit back after kitchen company went bust?
First, you need to find out if the business has closed down completely or if it has gone into liquidation. The Companies Registration Office (cro.ie) may be able to give you information such as the liquidator's details (if the company has gone into liquidation), whether or not the business was a subsidiary of a larger company, and details of any parent company - or a possible substitute company. If a liquidator has been appointed to look after the affairs of the business, you can contact it to find out about lodging a claim.
When a company goes out of business, it can owe individuals and organisations money. There are several ways to try to get your money back. However, there are no guarantees. If the business is in liquidation, you will be treated as an 'unsecured' creditor. However, as an unsecured creditor, you rank behind secured creditors - such as the Revenue Commissioners, employees who are owed wages, and banks that are owed money. This means that others, such as banks, will get paid first - so you might not get anything.
If you paid by credit or debit card, you have the option of a chargeback - which means you can look for your money back from your card provider if the item or service is not delivered. In your case, this is the kitchen you paid the deposit for. Your card provider can explain the process under the terms of the card scheme rules.
In your circumstances, as there is no fault with the ring that your fiancé bought, the jeweller is within its rights to treat your request as a change of mind. So, you don't have any rights under consumer law to get an automatic refund or replacement. In this situation, you are very much dependent on the goodwill of the jeweller.
Some jewellers, as part of their store policy, may be happy to exchange or refund items - provided you have proof of purchase and meet the terms and conditions of their returns policy. However, jewellers do not legally have to do this.
Considering the short time that has passed since your fiance bought the ring, it may be worthwhile visiting the jewellers and asking to speak to the manager. Explain your situation and see if it has any solution to offer. It may be willing to offer you a replacement or refund, but this would be very much at its discretion. You could also ask about getting the ring altered.
Many of us develop financial habits which we need to change if we want to save more, or in your case, to buy a home. Getting financial advice from a professional can help you to identify the changes you need to make to turn your goal into a reality.
Before choosing an adviser, be clear why you want to get financial advice and the type of advice you want. There are many different terms used to describe the status of financial advisers and the products they offer advice on. Some advisers are 'independent', meaning they offer advice on all financial products across the market, while others offer a 'restricted' service - meaning they only offer advice on financial products from a limited number of financial providers (such as certain banks or insurance companies).
Check if the financial adviser is authorised by the Central Bank of Ireland on its Registers website (registers.centralbank.ie). If a financial adviser is not authorised and things go wrong, you won't have access to compensation schemes such as the Deposit Guarantee Scheme and the Investor Compensation Scheme. This means you could potentially lose all of your money. Find out if the financial adviser has a recognised professional qualification to give financial advice. The most widely recognised qualification in Ireland is the Qualified Financial Adviser (QFA). Ask the financial adviser if it has experience advising others in similar situations to yours.
Next, compare fees. Financial advisers generally get paid by commission - where they are paid a fee or a bonus from the financial service provider whose products they sell. Or they may charge a fee for providing their services. Sometimes the adviser gets paid through a combination of commission and client fees. The charges can vary depending on the type of advice you are getting. Your financial adviser should provide you with a document listing all charges in a way that is easy for you to understand.
When you buy a product, it should be of an acceptable standard and fit for purpose. If you buy something which doesn't reach these standards, you have a right to a repair, replacement or a refund. The law doesn't specify exactly which solution you are entitled to so it us up to you to come to an agreement with the retailer. The best course of action for you now is to put your complaint in writing. Say that as you have bought something that is faulty, you are entitled to have the issue fixed and set out what your preferred remedy is.
If the retailer offers to fix the lamp or replace it, it should cover the cost of returning the product and any repairs should be free of charge and undertaken efficiently. If the problem occurs again, you are entitled to ask for a refund. Finally, if you are not happy with the solution the shop offers, you may wish to consider the Small Claims procedure.

Jim Lovell Interview
Beyond The Edge: Astronaut Jim Lovell On Apollo 13 & Dealing With Disaster
Jim Clash
In his Beyond the Edge series, Jim Clash uses his decades of experience interviewing death-defying men to explore how today's risk-takers and boundary-pushers plan, how they train, how they endure — and how they overcome.
Jim Lovell is the only astronaut to have been to the moon twice without setting foot on it. In 1968, aboard Apollo 8, his crew became the first to orbit the moon, a scheduled operation. Then, in 1970 on Apollo 13, trouble caused Lovell and his crew to abandon their scheduled landing, only to orbit the moon again and return to earth. The dangerous mission, of course, became the critically acclaimed 1995 film Apollo 13, with Tom Hanks playing the part of Lovell.
We recently caught up with Lovell, 88, from his vacation home in Horseshoe Bay, Texas. The following are edited excerpts from a longer conversation.
On Apollo 13, you must have experienced fear when that oxygen tank exploded en route to the moon. How did you deal with it?
Well, we are all apprehensive. But you have to have a positive attitude, number one. And number two, we were all from test pilot backgrounds, so naturally this was adventure. [With Apollo 13] we had to say, "Okay, here's the problem. What do we have to work with? Is it immediate that we have to do something?" We first thought a meteorite had hit the Lunar Module. Had that happened, we'd have been dead in just a few minutes when we lost atmosphere. But that wasn't the case. It turned out that the explosion had crippled the Command Module. So we still had the Lunar Module, which we used as a lifeboat to get home.
Anything in life you thought was a failure that later turned out to be success in disguise?
That's a good question. For some time, I thought Apollo 13 was a failure. I was disappointed I didn't get to land on the moon. But actually it turned out to be the best thing that could have happened. After six successful Apollo flights, including two lunar landings, people were getting bored. Those in the media weren't calling anymore. We sent a TV feed out to the three networks [for Apollo 13] and they never even bothered to carry it. It was, "You've been there, done that — what else can you do?" But when the explosion occurred, it brought out the true value of leadership, teamwork and initiative at Mission Control and turned an almost certain catastrophe for NASA into a successful recovery.
Your first sight of the back of the moon, the first ever by humans, on Christmas Eve 1968 aboard Apollo 8 really must have been something?
Well, that was quite a thrill, the high point of my space career. We got up there and saw those age-old craters on the far side, which you can't see from down here on Earth. But the real revelation was looking at Earth as it really is in space. It's a very small body when you see it from the perspective of the moon and sun. It has color — the moon, of course, is only shades of grey. And when you look at it, you realize there are more than six billion people down there. I could put my thumb up to a window and completely hide the Earth. I thought, "Everything I've ever known is behind my thumb."

Virgo Scorpio Love Compatibility
ArielB
How good or bad is the love compatibility between a Virgo and Scorpio emotionally, mentally and sexually? Read on…
A romantic Virgo and Scorpio relationship will be one that will be able to work through many difficulties that other zodiac sign pairings might not be able to do. These two star signs have many of the same qualities, but they also have their differences as well.
For instance, in the Virgo Scorpio compatibility they both value loyalty and security in a relationship. But Virgo is influenced the most by Mercury, the communication planet, while Scorpio is ruled more by Mars and Pluto, so these signs are bound to be a at least a little different. The main question is whether or not their similarities will be strong enough to be able to overlook these sun sign's differences from each other. Keep reading to find out!
Virgo is a star sign that cares very much about loyalty and security. While Virgo is not a very social sign, they are loyal to the friends that they have, as well as their family members. They will never do anything to betray the trust of someone who they care about. Because of this, anyone dating a Virgo can rest assured that this sign will not cheat on them. Virgo men and Virgo women also crave to have as much security in their lives as possible.
This could be one of the reasons why the Virgo person takes so much pride in their job, which can easily provide them with financial security. They don't mind that they need to work, as they are good at their job. They pay a lot of attention to the small details in their job, their partner, and in life in general. They are unlikely to ever forget an appointment, birthday, or anniversary.
Scorpio is not a very social sign, as they feel that they can get more work done if they work on their own. This is a trait that Virgo also shares with them. Like the Virgin, they realize that they won't become boss of their workplace overnight. They will still work as hard as they can. They care more that they are doing their job well than that they are getting a promotion every few months.
Scorpio men and Scorpio women set goals for themselves that may not be the easiest to accomplished, but they will work on their goal until they finally get it done, whether it takes a week or a year. This sign also loves to be creative, whether they are having new ideas at work, in an art studio, or in the bedroom. When the Virgo is dating a Scorpio, the Scorpion will want to be in charge. This could be seen as being possessive, but if they have a loyal partner they can tone themselves down a bit.
Virgo And Scorpio Love Compatibility – Positive
Now that we've looked at these star sign's traits it is easy to see some of their similarities that might be able to bring them together. Let's look at the pros of a Virgo Scorpio love compatibility.

Although both these astrological signs are shy, it is likely that Scorpio will be the one to first approach Virgo, instead of it being the other way around. The Virgo man or Virgo woman is usually slow to getting into a romantic relationship. So it is likely that Virgo Scorpio friendship will be the first step before they get into a romantic relationship together. It is also likely that they will meet at work or school because neither of these astrology signs tend to go out much.
Since the Virgo Scorpio soul mates are both hard-workers it is likely that they will be very stable financially. These two signs will respect each other's ability to work like they do, since they both have the same tactic when it comes to do their job properly. These two are not likely to spend much of their money on things that they don't need. Virgo is a practical spender and Scorpio can understand that. The Virgo and Scorpio couple may think about investing in the stock market together though.
Although in the Virgo and Scorpio compatibility these two signs tend to be rather shy, they are great communicating with each other. This could be in part because Virgo is ruled by Mercury, and most signs under Mercury have great communication skills. These two signs are able to talk to each other for hours about the things that they are passionate about. These signs also love to teach each other new things.
For instance, Scorpio personality might try to teach Virgo how to think more creatively and also teach them how to be more relaxed during the day. Virgo often puts so much emphasis on their work-life that their home-life becomes stressful because of it. The Scorpion understands that work is important, but they can teach the Virgin to leave their work-related stress at their job. Virgo will try to teach Scorpio much of the opposite skills.

Although Scorpio male or Scorpio female is already a hard-worker and goal-driven, their creativity may get in their way at times. Virgo may help Scorpio to think less outside-of-the-box and think more practically instead. Overall, in the Virgo Scorpio marriage, the couple will try to bring out the best in each other, and try to improve each other as their relationship goes on. By looking at these pros it seems like the couple will be one that will have no problem with communicating with each other, which is always a good trait for a couple to have.
Virgo Scorpio Compatibility – Negative
While this couple has many great traits going for them, they also have some differences that can get in the way about how they feel about each other and how they act within their relationship. Let's take a look at some of the cons of a Virgo Scorpio love compatibility.
Sometimes Scorpios' temper can get between this couple. Virgo is not the best when it comes to picking up on other people's emotions, so it is likely that he or she won't know what to do when the Scorpion is acting in this way. However, Virgo will do whatever their partner needs so that they can feel better. However, sometimes it takes a while for the virgin to understand what it wrong, and this can make their better half very upset. This can be the first step to arguments and general conflict leading to a Virgo Scorpio breakup.
Luckily, Virgo zodiac is open to making compromises when Scorpio gets this way. At the same time, they can also be emotional. While they pride themselves on being organized on the outside, their feelings on the inside are more or less all over the place. In this horoscope compatibility, these two star signs will need to work on their individual emotional issues if they are even supposed to begin to help each other with their emotions. This can take some time to learn. They may want to seek couple's counseling or go to therapists so that they can figure out how to deal with their emotions in a better way. Once they figure out how to deal with their individual emotions they should be better able to help each other with their emotions.
The main problem in this Virgo and Scorpio compatibility is that these two will have trouble opening up with each other when it comes to their feelings. If this aspect of their relationship cannot be worked on then it is likely that this will be what breaks up the couple. Besides their emotional inner conflicts, the Virgo Scorpio in bed too will not be sexually satisfied. Scorpio will want to be able to make the main decisions for this pairing, so it will depend on how their Virgo partner feels about this if it will work out well.
These two signs are great with compromise, but if Scorpio begins to get too demanding then things will not work out well. Just as well, at times Scorpio can become possessive of their partner if they have problems trusting them. This should not be a problem in most Virgo-Scorpio relationships But if Scorpio has the slightest thought that there is a reason not to trust the Virgo then things might get messy in their relationship. Luckily, Virgo is a very loyal partner, so this should not be a problem too often.
Virgo And Scorpio Compatibility – Conclusion
In conclusion, a Virgo-Scorpio compatibility should be one that is able to work out through most of their problems. In this pairing, the main problem is that these zodiac signs are not very good at accepting and communicating their individual emotions. If these two can learn to express themselves better, then this Virgo and Scorpio relationship will have close to no problems. Overall, this couple will be very stable and they will be able to get along well because of their similarities.

Want to Know What Consent Looks Like? Start Reading Romance Novels
Associated Press AP December 4, 2019 1:00 pm December 4, 2019 Off 150
When we're writing these scenes, the author has control over every aspect: when, where, and what the characters are thinking and feeling. So we have the power to create something sexy, wonderful and totally consensual. All we have to do is pause, look at what we write, and make sure all the characters have real agency.
But it's not just sex! A lot of what has been coded "hero behavior" in our brains isn't cool anymore. Stuff like exerting control or the heroine, or following her home "for her safety" and "because he cares." As authors we have a choice about what portray is heroic behavior, so we should use our power for good.
What do you wish that people who still think of romance novels as "bodice rippers" knew about what sex is actually like in romance novels today?
Rodale: I wish people knew that in romance we're not ashamed. We're really damn proud of it and we don't feel guilty about it. And you notice these characters never feel guilty for enjoying themselves. Not to mention, that in a lot of [older] literature, the heroine dies after they have sex. There is some sort of punishment for a woman daring to enjoy herself. But with romance novels it's like, "No. She's going to have a great time and live happily ever after."
Gallop: I would love romance novels to actually set the agenda for depictions of fulfilling and consensual sex in a way that no other area in popular culture is doing. Not least because every other era of popular culture is massively male dominated. There's a misconception out there that consenting sex means stopping every two minutes going, "Is this okay? Is it okay if I do this? Is it okay if I do this?" And of course that's not it. I would just love to see many more people actively turn to romance novels to understand what really drives fantastic, great, fulfilling consensual sex.
Romance novels have come along way, but what do you believe still needs to be done to push the genre forward?
Rodale: I might be alone in this, but I think there's a space for the characters to not have perfect sex the first time. People want sex to be perfect on the first time, but in reality it doesn't always happen like that. I love [when writers] explore the process of two people learning each other. I think that's sexy and romantic. Then I think we need more overall inclusivity and favorable depictions of nontraditional relationships. Romance is still very one man, one woman, who are probably going to get married. That works for a lot of people and that's great. But I think that can also be kind of limiting. So I think it'd be interesting to read those stories and explore other definitions of happy ever after for people.

With a disappointing finish and a roster likely to lose talented players, the Arizona Diamondbacks must decide: rebuild or go for it one last time?
In the coming weeks, General Manager Mike Hazen will solicit opinions from throughout his organization. He will dissect what went wrong with the Diamondbacks. He will determine what might come next. And he will take these answers and possibilities to owner Ken Kendrick.
The course they chart might define not just the Diamondbacks' upcoming offseason, but also the direction of the franchise over the next half-decade. The club has disappointed this year. Key players are set to become free agents. Change is coming. And with it the Diamondbacks might be one of baseball's most fascinating teams as the offseason approaches.
If that's their route, they likely will need rotation and relief help. They will need a center fielder. They will need to find ways to score runs more consistently. And they will need to find ways to contend in an increasingly difficult National League, including a division in which they have the third-best record over the past three years.
If they opt to go the other way, they would enter a trade market that could be mostly devoid of sellers. And while they don't have the sort of cost-controlled young stars who generally fetch huge trade hauls, they likely would have no shortage of teams calling on their players.
Whether that happens this winter, next July or sometime thereafter, there is little question the day is coming. What the Diamondbacks have to determine is not only when to begin this process, but also to what extent they will go with it.
That is, will they merely retool their roster, or will they rebuild entirely? Will they do it in waves or all at once? Will they keep certain players and build around them, or will they let the next generation of Diamondbacks build their own foundation?
Central to this is what to do with first baseman Paul Goldschmidt, the best and most popular homegrown player in club history. With Goldschmidt under contract for one more year, the Diamondbacks will have to decide whether to keep him through next year, get what they can for him in a trade or try to sign him to an extension.
The situation with Goldschmidt speaks to the fact that rebuilds are not for the faint of heart. But, it seems, the Diamondbacks might need to face facts when it comes to their current group of players — and those who are likely to depart.
With left-hander Patrick Corbin and center fielder A.J. Pollock set to hit free agency, the Diamondbacks could lose two valuable pieces the organization had built around the past few years. The group has had mixed results. In 2016, they lost 93 games. Last year, they won 93 games. This year, they will finish somewhere around .500, in large part because of a disastrous September.
No organization wants to overreact following an ugly month of performance. But the Diamondbacks' front office almost certainly recognizes where things are trending, not to mention the cycle the organization has found itself in for the better part of a decade.
For years, the Diamondbacks have had just enough talent to want to keep pushing forward, but not enough to seriously contend for a World Series. And, it seems, each time they've tried to load up, they've only set themselves back further from a possible championship.
With Goldschmidt still in the fold, it could be tempting for them to try once more to prop open their window of contention. And while there are reasons to think they could succeed in 2019, a lot has to go right.
They would need third baseman Jake Lamb and right fielder Steven Souza Jr. to bounce back. They would need starting pitchers Robbie Ray and Zack Godley to do the same and for Taijuan Walker to return healthy. They would need Goldschmidt, David Peralta and Zack Greinke to maintain their high levels of production. They would need health and other good fortune. It's all possible. But, rival officials say, it might be a long shot.
It's a tactic that hasn't worked well for other teams. Over the past five years, the Giants, Orioles, Tigers, Royals, Phillies and White Sox, among others, have, to some degree, tried to continue to contend despite indications their windows were closing. All failed — and, as a result, likely pushed back the timeline for their next winning team.
Meanwhile, the teams that have stripped down and rebuilt entirely (Cubs, Astros) or have hoarded their top young players (Yankees, Dodgers) have ascended to what some call "superteam" status. Rather than trying to compete and sneak into the playoffs with 80-something wins, they're built to win 95 games a year.
There is risk in taking one more run at it before reassessing in the middle of the season. The Diamondbacks would be hoping their current top trade assets don't depreciate in value between now and July, and it can sometimes be difficult for teams to find in-season trade partners, particularly for position players, thus making it harder to get quality returns.
It seems unlikely Kendrick would be entirely on board with a full-scale teardown. Two years ago, speaking during a press conference on the day the club removed Tony La Russa and Dave Stewart from leadership positions, Kendrick did not seem to think his team's fan base would tolerate the sort of five-year rebuild the Cubs endured.
Even if the Diamondbacks were to begin taking backward steps, they likely wouldn't take them all at once. Unless there's a dictum to slash payroll, they could attempt to be opportunistic when it comes to the trade market, moving some players now and holding on to others until later.
Several players on their roster would carry immediate trade value. There's Goldschmidt, of course, but there's also Ray, Peralta and shortstop Nick Ahmed. Greinke's contract complicates his value, but he remains one of the better pitchers in baseball.
Goldschmidt has value in that he's one of the best hitters in baseball and will make $14.5 million next year — not cheap, but not overpriced, either — but with just one year of control, his return could be limited.
Extending Goldschmidt could mean committing big dollars to a player on a team that's not contending, a move that, in a vacuum, wouldn't be logical. But Goldschmidt is held in such high regard by the organization and its fans, the club could decide it is worth keeping him whatever the cost, assuming Goldschmidt wants to stay. Goldschmidt has said many times he likes playing in Arizona, but he won't talk about his contract or his future, so there's no telling if he'd rather not be with a team going through a down period as he enters his early-30s.
There are others on the roster whom the Diamondbacks could prefer to keep for the time being. Lamb, Souza, Godley and reliever Archie Bradley are coming off disappointing seasons, some of which were due to injuries. They might all qualify as depressed assets.
Given the landscape, it might be as a good a time as any to sell. Most of baseball's rebuilding teams already have stripped away their best players, and other than the Mets or perhaps the Mariners, there don't appear to be many other clubs in position to tear down.
Beyond that, the National League might only get tougher. In the NL East, the Braves and Phillies are on the upswing and the Nationals still have a strong foundation of talent. The Cubs, Brewers, Cardinals and Pirates all figure to be at least competitive, while the Reds are actively trying to improve.
In the Diamondbacks' own division, the Dodgers still are loaded with talent and could spend big this winter, the Rockies have young pitching and some prime-age position player talent and the Padres might have baseball's best farm system.
The Diamondbacks' system is not highly regarded, but they have a slew of interesting young position players in the lower minors. A selloff of parts at the big-league level would only add to that, though there are no guarantees a rebuild would pay off in a World Series title. What the Diamondbacks have to decide is if that's their best bet to win one, or if they want to roll the dice once more with the group they have despite their struggles in two of the past three years.

Afrikaner news March 17 2012
Summary: Helping Hand Charity can't raise funds to help empoverished Afrikaners without accusations of 'dividing Afrikaans-speakers'… An Afrikaner smallholder is paralysed from neck down after motiveless knife attack..
Afrikaner smallholder Mrs Ada Viljoen, 77, now is paralysed from the neck down: her black attacker cut through her spinal cord:
2012-03-16 Potchefstroom. Afrikaner smallholder Mrs Ada Viljoen, 77, has become paralysed from the neck down because a black knifeman - who stole nothing - cut through her spinal cord in a motiveless attack on March 5 2012. Housekeeper Liesbet Pilane survived with superficial stab-wounds. http://www.beeld.com/Suid-Afrika/Nuus/Vrou-verlam-nadat-aanvaller-rugstring-sny-20120316
The attack occurred on March 5 at her Potchefstroom smallholding, said her son Alwyn in an interview with Beeld daily newspaper.The black male, who was arrested, stormed into the kitchen, stabbed her housekeeper Liesbet Pilane injuring her slightly on an arm and hand, and then attack Mrs Viljoen.Her daughter Mrs Rietha de Coning, who lives in New Zealand with her family, has arrived in SA to be with her mother.The attacker's large knife entered her neck, penetrating and partially severing the spinal cord."My mom does not want to return to the smallholding and does not believe she will ever be able to drive a car again,' said the son.The Viljoen children always feared an attack because so many tens of thousands of Afrikaner smallholders and farmers have been attacked in such senseless violence ever since 1994. However she always wanted to remain on the smallholding even after husband Alwyn senior died seven years earlier.The suspect, arrested the same day, provided no reasons for the senseless violence which left the Afrikaner woman paralysed.He stole nothing and fled from the scene on a 'bicycle which was abandoned".The housekeeper 's wounds were superficial. Mrs Viljoen now is in the Milpark hospital intensive care unit in Johannesburg.Mrs De Coning said her mom is 'still very weak and vulnerable. The realisation that she was paralysed took some two days for her to comprehend,' she said."The full implications will only hit her once she gets stronger and wants to do more. "My mother is a very independent person.'Mr Viljoen said 'many people are praying for my mother and it appears as if she may regain limited use of her arms.'

Afrikaners – denied government benefits and food-aid from the ANC regime because they are 'whites' – also are apparently not allowed to raise funds for their own people without accusations of 'stirring up Afrikaner nationalism':
-- Research-journalist De Wet Potgieter, writes for the ANC-news-sheet The New Age: with its undemocratic logo: "One Country - One Paper'...
Potgieter claims in his article below, March 6 2012 - that 'coloured viewers of the Afrikaans television channel kykNet are up in arms, claiming that the all-white trade union Solidarity, and its Helping Hand Fund want to hijack the station for their own objectives."
And what are those evil objectives of Helping Hand? To help desperate poor Afrikaners survive..
Helping Hand charity – (" which mainly supports white Afrikaans-speaking poor and homeless people", Potgieter writes accusingly ) - places charity-funding inserts into the popular soap Villa Rosa to raise funds for a study bursary for ONE destitute Afrikaner child.
And horrors! Helping Hand's management Solidarity was also 'negotiating a deal with KykNet to 'produce inserts on welfare issues for the gospel music programme, DKNT Gospel."
We are left speechless: apparently, raising funds to help rescue even a few Afrikaners from their desperate and rapidly growing poverty – directly caused by the ANC regime's black-economic-empowerment job-restriction laws and its refusal to give food-aid and government benefits to 'whites' -- , is apparently so evil that 'Christo van der Rheede, a prominent coloured community leader as ex-ceo of the Afrikaans Trade Institute warned that this (fundraising) could drive a wedge into the Afrikaans-speaking community,' according to Potgieter.
Afrikaners are not even allowed to raise their own funds to help their own people any more without being attacked: Yet KykNet reeived only ONE complaint', admitted its spokeswoman. However she hastened to say: "if we are not happy with the way the administration is done I will not hesitate to cancel it immediately. KykNET will not allow its presenters to influence anybody to favour a particular organisation.'
The 'accusation' of involvement in DKNT gospel was moreover also denied by Helping Hand: they would 'only manage and administer the bursary fund "as every other bursary fund" under the control of its Afrikaans Bursary Fund Institute": Helping Hand spokeswoman Juanita du Preez referred all enquiries regarding the handling of the sms-fundraiser on behalf of Villa Rosa to KykNet.
De Wet Potgieter quoted only one 'coloured' person when he wrote: "One of the main concerns from coloured viewers is that Solidarity Helping Hand Fund will be "collecting valuable data through the sms campaign from KykNet viewers "to be used for their own recruiting drives for funding in the Afrikaans communities." "We are not aware of any problems," Du Preez told him.
Van der Rheede: "It will be a sad day if the Solidarity Helping Hand Fund is allowed to hijack public media to further its own exclusive Afrikaner-nationalistic objectives." He quickly followed this up with his own ANC-propaganda-blurb, adding: 'since the dawning of democracy in 1994 an inclusive Afrikaner community had emerged where Afrikaans-speaking South Africans across the colour line started joining hands in building a new united and inclusive Afrikaner culture. I am concerned that the threat of a division within the ranks of Afrikaans-speaking South Africans would undo many people's efforts to rid Afrikaans of its apartheid baggage."
Now it's 'apartheid-baggage' to want to help your own desperate people?
It seems that Afrikaners are not even allowed to raise funds for their own people - even though they are being denied all government-aid only because they are 'whites'
I asked De Wet Potgieter for advice today: since his article had made it clear that Helping Hand was not allowed to do raise funds for the Afrikaner poor, II asked him whether The New Age would now be launching an independent fund-raising campaign for impoverished Afrikaners -- illustrated by his own briliant pictures from Afrikaner-squatter camps he has amassed over the years when he was stilll working for Solidarity trade union as their researcher into Afrikaner poverty. I am awaiting his reply.
To me, it's a matter of some urgency: I recently helped register the Afrikaner Rescue Action Fund charity in Leeuwarden, the Netherlands. Their purpose: to raise funds for the empoverished Afrikaner communities.
I feel that as long as the ANC-regime keeps discriminating against the Afrikaners in its charity-benefits programmes with its refusal to help impoverished Afrikaners, we are perfectly entitled to also 'discriminate' when raising funds for this endangered white minority in South Africa.

Projects » Retail » Romsey
Client: Tesco Stores Limited
Authority: Test Valley Borough Council
We are leading a multi-disciplinary team on a proposed Tesco foodstore in Romsey, Hampshire. Our role in the submission of the planning application included the preparation of a Planning and Retail Assessment, the co-ordination of the Environmental Impact Assessment, and preparing impact assessment chapters on Heritage and Socio-Economic Impacts.
Our Planning and Retail Assessment identifies that many residents living in and around Romsey currently travel elsewhere to do their food shopping and demonstrates that the proposed store would clawback trade to Romsey. In support of this assessment we undertook research into the effects of edge-of-centre and out-of-centre foodstores on the health of town centres. This provides evidence that vibrant town centres can co-exist with foodstores.
Our Heritage Assessment considers the effect of the proposed foodstore on the listed Broadlands Park and Gardens, the Romsey Conservation Area and other nearby listed buildings. Following English Heritage guidance, this assessment considers how the proposed development would effect the elements of the historic environment which are of heritage significance.

Q: Number game algorithm I am doing some research at the moment into creating a new maths game for primary school children where divs from 0-9 appear at random inside a container.
A question is given at the beginning. Something like, multiples of 20. The user will then have to click on the correct ones, and they will then be counted at the end and a score will be given.
So at the moment I have the basic structure, divs pop up and you click them and it adds to the correct answer, meaning there is no wrong answer at this point in time.
I want to know what the best way of determining the right and wrong answers is. Is there and algorithm that I can use that will work out whether the answers are right or wrong, and how would I link it to the divs?

wrong answers will be given the class ".wrong" as apposed to ".right"
Fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/SKB3Q/10/

A: The first thing you need to do is come up with a question for any notion of right or wrong to make sense.
For example: "Click all numbers that are greater than 20"
The second thing you need to do is express this question as a boolean expression that evaluates to true or false.
(selection>20)

Then evaluate this expression for each selection to determine whether it is right or wrong.
Here is an example of what I mean. Before the game starts, the script adds the appropriate class to each element. The question is "Select all numbers greater than 5"

A: Actually I have done  balloon game which resembles this...
As you have done the design and animation work perfectly 70% of work is done :D, small modifications in the logic will complete the work......
My solution will be :
if the div's in the container are static and you have given the ID's for them then
Step1: check for which div is Clicked and then what value is assigned to it
Step2: check the boolean expression (according to you requirement) here and increase the correct flag or the incorrect flag, which are declared globally, according to your boolean expression
The sample code that might help you
for(var i=0;i<8;i++)
{
    $("#char"+i).click(function(){
        //boolean expression comes here
        //increase the correct count or the incorrect count you want to do it
    })
}

A: I didn't see exactly the code of yours if the char1,char2,char3,.... are the randomly created divs and 1,2,3,..... are the values associated with that then try this code and let me know

so by this when ever a div is enabled, and the user clicks on it then this function is called and will check the boolean expression and increase the hit or miss flags appropriately .
Note: Assuming that Char1,char2,... are the randomly enabling divs, if not write the condition for the appropriate randomly created div's, that will work fine
"you can check for any multiples just by changing the boolean expression, I had given above that is (val%15 == 0 )"
