// JSFunctions are pairs (context, function code), sometimes also called
// closures. A Context object is used to represent function contexts and
// dynamically pushed 'with' contexts (or 'scopes' in ECMA-262 speak).
//
// At runtime, the contexts build a stack in parallel to the execution
// stack, with the top-most context being the current context. All contexts
// have the following slots:
//
// [ closure   ]  This is the current function. It is the same for all
//                contexts inside a function. It provides access to the
//                incoming context (i.e., the outer context, which may
//                or may not become the current function's context), and
//                it provides access to the functions code and thus it's
//                scope information, which in turn contains the names of
//                statically allocated context slots. The names are needed
//                for dynamic lookups in the presence of 'with' or 'eval'.
//
// [ previous  ]  A pointer to the previous context. It is NULL for
//                function contexts, and non-NULL for 'with' contexts.
//                Used to implement the 'with' statement.
//
// [ extension ]  A pointer to an extension JSObject, or "the hole". Used to
//                implement 'with' statements and dynamic declarations
//                (through 'eval'). The object in a 'with' statement is
//                stored in the extension slot of a 'with' context.
//                Dynamically declared variables/functions are also added
//                to lazily allocated extension object. Context::Lookup
//                searches the extension object for properties.
//                For script and block contexts, contains the respective
//                ScopeInfo. For block contexts representing sloppy declaration
//                block scopes, it may also be a struct being a
//                SloppyBlockWithEvalContextExtension, pairing the ScopeInfo
//                with an extension object.
//                For module contexts, points back to the respective JSModule.
//
// [ global_object ]  A pointer to the global object. Provided for quick
//                access to the global object from inside the code (since
//                we always have a context pointer).
//
// In addition, function contexts may have statically allocated context slots
// to store local variables/functions that are accessed from inner functions
// (via static context addresses) or through 'eval' (dynamic context lookups).
// The native context contains additional slots for fast access to native
// properties.
//
// Finally, with Harmony scoping, the JSFunction representing a top level
// script will have the ScriptContext rather than a FunctionContext.
// Script contexts from all top-level scripts are gathered in
// ScriptContextTable.

Sophsterlicious • UK Blog: My Halloween Cute Cat Look, With Green Eyes!
This weekend I felt inspired to play with some Halloween type of looks, I did one cute and one scary, here is the cute one. I already had some cat ears, and for a costume it's easy to wear black, so I just did the makeup look and added some cool lenses that I recently received from a website called Lenstore .. They have a really nice selection of coloured lenses that are really nice for all sorts of looks, but I really loved the green ones and figured they'd be perfect for a cat.
It's not the most perfect makeup, but I think that it would be super cute and fun for a night out. The lenses really take it up a notch too, I love how vivid the lenses look, yet so natural. These lenses are the Freshlook Colorblend lenses in Gemstone Green and they feel so easy to wear and put in and remove. They are really soft and went it with ease without my eyes watering at all, and they make me look like I have real green eyes.. I always wanted to play around with eye colours! I did also get the same lenses in the shade amethyst, they are pretty but much more subtle than the green, I didn't feel they made such a dramatic difference. Check the lenses out here and check out the range of Halloween Lenses here.
So, onto the actual makeup look. It's quite self explanatory really, I did a very dramatic eye with my Crown Brush smoky eye palette, I used some purples and blacks. I added some very dramatic lashes on my lower lashline and a ton of mascara on top. I did a dramatic winged liner, coloured my nose and top lip with black gel liner and added the red lips and whiskers. I think when you're doing a look like this, it's best to just go with it and see what happens. The lenses and the ears were my final touches to becoming a black cat!
I'm actually going away for a week tomorrow and my little Sister is very excited for me to do her makeup as a cat, I'll try and post a couple of pics of that, either here or on Instagram.
Thanks for reading everyone! Have a Happy Halloween! . . Oh, and Lenstore are offering 10% off for new customers when you enter the code Makeupwonderland_Reader at the checkout.


Another Beautiful Sunday in Paradise. Bladers/Bicyclers (back left) Theresa, Cher, Carol J, Joe & Paula S, Dorey Anne, Roy H, Rob H, Dee T, Steve G, (front left) Glennis W, Lech O, Jeff B and Bruce M came. Welcome all. We had a mixture of bladers, long range bicyclers and regular range bicyclers so we ended up in three groups. We all did the Long Center Trail to Bayshore Blvd. Then we became three groups. One group went down to the Courtney Campbell Causeway and went to the first little bridge and then back to the Long Center Trail for a round trip of 12.4 miles. One group went down to the Courtney Campbell Causeway and then headed to Safety Harbor to have Brunch. The Brunch at Safety Harbor group planned on doing 26 miles. The Bladers went to Bayshore Blvd, then up to Safety Harbor and then back to the Long Center Trail. That group did 7.5 miles. We had 3 Bladers and 11 Bicyclers.
Most of the group Brunched at the Sunset Grill as planned. The 7.5 mile group got there first and had a table ready for the 12.4 mile group. The service was a little slow but the food great as usual. We had several food ratings of 9.8.


ARUSHA/ TARANGIRE / NGORONGORO/ MANYARA /ARUSHA.
We will wake up early in the morning and start driving down the Ngorongoro crater which is about 2000 feet deep and 14 miles wide. The crater hosts a remarkable wildlife spectacle. There is savanna, bush land, forests and lakes, inhabited by the same range of game, from Elephant to Lion to Wildebeest; there is even a soda lake for the Flamingos. We will spend the day exploring the Ngorongoro crater which is a World Heritage Site, home to nearly 25,000 animals, giving you a very real chance of spotting the big five: lion, elephant, endangered black rhino, buffalo and leopard plus countless other African mammal species. Witness the magnificent array of habitats, each with its own unique wildlife and flora. Take time out to stretch your legs and enjoy a picnic lunch at Ngoitokitok Springs watching the hippos jostle for position in the water. After lunch we will ascend and drive to our overnight lodge.
Afternoon drive back to Arusha with few stops at souvenirs shops on the way, which are beautifully decorated and full of high quality authentic artworks, sculptures, antiques, fabrics and textiles from Tanzania.
2 night Accommodation and meals at Endoro Lodge or Ngorongoro Farm House – Karatu as specified in the Itinerary.


Why the category leader started a food fight as the Greek yogurt wars get Peloponnesian.
It's January 6, 2016, and you're settling down for breakfast, watching the morning news. "North Korea claims it successfully tested its first hydrogen bomb." "State of emergency declared in Flint, Michigan, over contaminated drinking water." A new ad catches your eye. A woman, who looks a lot like you, holds a container of Yoplait Greek 100, reading the label. All of a sudden, she throws the cup away as the voiceover says, "Potassium sorbate? Really? That stuff is used to kill bugs." The spot, the ad-world equivalent of an H-bomb, now has your full attention. The closer: Chobani's 100-calorie Greek yogurt has no preservatives.
The Chobani campaign, which included a similar strike against Dannon, succeeded a little too well in rattling its rivals. On January 10, General Mills, which makes Yoplait, sued Chobani to get the ads off the air. "The television commercial that leads the Chobani attack campaign," states the complaint General Mills filed in federal court, "goes so far as to convey that, because Yoplait Greek 100 is laced with a pesticide, it is so dangerous and unfit to eat that consumers should discard it as garbage." A judge sided with General Mills, and Chobani stopped airing the spots.
Chobani has good reason to defend its turf: The company created it. Nine years ago, when Hamdi Ulukaya founded Chobani, Greek-style yogurt made up only 1% of the market. Today, 50% of all yogurt produced in the United States is Greek, and over the past decade, per capita yogurt consumption has doubled. Chobani is valued at $2.5 billion and controls 16% of what is now a $7.7 billion market. The ongoing fight between Chobani and General Mills showcases the challenges in catering to Americans' growing desire for healthier choices, with ingredients they can pronounce—without sacrificing convenience or the surprise of new flavors.
General Mills remains committed to appealing to the widest variety of tastes. It offers Dora the Explorer–themed yogurt for kids, indulgent cappuccino-flavored dessert yogurts for sweet tooths, and organic fat-free yogurts for health nuts, under a multitude of brands including Mountain High, Liberté, and Annie's. "Our brands are at very different places within the category and give us the opportunity to grow," says Doug Martin, the yogurt brand manager at General Mills. Last year, General Mills also started a VC unit to fund food startups (and give it a pipeline for acquisitions). One notable investment: Good Culture, which aims to do for cottage cheese what Chobani did for yogurt.
By contrast (and perhaps by design), Chobani follows the lead of its founder. "Hamdi never asked the consumer what they liked," says Kai Sacher, Chobani's VP of R&D, scoffing at companies that study charts and spreadsheets about consumer behavior. "He believed you need to give them the better option." Sacher claims that he and his team sit around a kitchen table, dreaming up unique flavor combinations—like sriracha mango and chipotle pineapple—and then find ways to turn them into yogurt products. The company also has a café in New York where it tests out new recipes on customers.
In a world where cereal sales suffer because consumers don't want to hassle with a spoon and bowl, Chobani intends to be the most convenient option by creating a line of Greek-yogurt beverages, inspired by those served in Ulukaya's native Turkey. While Americans spoon yogurt, people in Asia, the Middle East, and Eastern Europe mostly sip it. Chobani execs believe these drinks could be its next hit. If it is, Martin and General Mills say they're ready. "On the fast end, we can turn around a new product in as little as six months," Martin says. In other words, expect more lip smacking.

Life skills matter more
By HARIATI AZIZAN
Sunday, 01 Feb 2004
MANY local tertiary institutions are aware that today's employers are looking for more than just a degree qualification in graduates. Hence, they have weaved into course content elements that are necessary to build the all-rounder and the thinker.
Dr Goh Chee Leong, director of the Centre for Psychology at HELP Institute, says that many employers are looking for those who are multi-skilled.
"That is why it is important to make sure that students get training in soft skills such as leadership qualities, communication skills, the ability to work under pressure, financing and events management," he says.
At the centre, although students are encouraged to take up co-curricular activities, these skills are incorporated in the curriculum, he adds.
One activity is the research colloquium where students are required to present their research paper.
"It gives students the opportunity to practise speaking in public and brush up on their English language skills," he says.
As part of the programme, students are also required to get involved in social activism. This forces them to go out and meet people from all walks of life, he shares, giving them a wider perspective of life.
It is not all academic, however, as the centre organises film festivals as an alternative way to expose students to the outside world.
"Films can expose students to various types of people, giving them a better understanding of human nature," he adds.
Help Institute academic director Dr Khong Kim Hoong concurs, "At Help we ensure that students are all-rounded – they need to be able to communicate in English well, carry themselves well and think critically."
More and more students are going into unrelated industries, he adds.
"For the professional course like law, accounting, medicine, you have to be trained in the respective areas.
But that does not mean that graduates with business or psychology degrees will not make good bank executives, for example. Many of the things you can learn on the job, except for technical skills which you need to pick up in the programme."
Malaysian Association of Private Colleges and Universities (Mapcu) president Tengku Shamsul Bahrin puts critical thinking at the top of the list.
" We need more people who can be leaders in the industry, not followers. Hence, students have to be taught to think critically and creatively," he shares.
Many students are still taking up programmes that are "safe" like medicine, law and business, he adds, but there is growing demand in new knowledge such as the Biosciences and Mass Communications.
Tengku Shamsul says that the private education sector tries hard to keep up with the trends in the employment market and industry but is hampered by red tape. He advises students to also look at the partner universities when choosing a programme.
"Many colleges are linking up with foreign universities that offer the latest in the industry to bypass the red tape. For example in accountancy, it is easier to offer a new strand with a foreign university than wait for the ministry to approve it," he adds.
Despite its reputation, people skills are equally important in Information Technology.
Says senior manager (development) at Asia Pacific Institute of Information Technology (Apiit) Gurpardeep Singh, the college makes it a point to equip students with communication skills and "self-presentation".
"Students have to do project papers and present them to the class. This trains them in speaking and writing.
We also have a dress code where students have to dress formally on campus. This way when they start working, they will be used to it," he adds.
The past few years have seen a decline in interest in IT among students, which Gurpardeep attributes to the early nineties hype that saw students going into IT for the wrong reasons.
"IT seemed to be the groovy thing to do then. Many who went through the programme discovered that it was not something that they enjoyed or when they graduated they found themselves not equipped for work. Everyone was offering IT courses, so as a result there was a high number of IT graduates with a general degree but without the skills to survive in the IT industry."
He explains that IT is a discipline with fundamental skills and basic theories or concepts that can be applied in any language, such as software development, infrastructure knowledge, and interactive technology.
Gurpardeep is nonetheless optimistic about the industry recovering.
"There is an avenue for IT jobs but for the right people. The demand is still there. Students must have the right transferable skills.
One is problem-solving skills. IT students have to develop problem-solving skills very early in their career because IT is all about problem solving.
"Technical skills you can develop, but usually what is generally current will be out of date when you graduate. So, more important are the transferable skills and fundamental skills."
Not so for Biotechnology, undisputedly one of the hottest programmes at the moment.
"It is a goldmine and there are many job opportunities but you cannot join a programme just because you think it will be easy to get a job when you graduate. It is important that students are equally interested and have the aptitude for it because the subject is difficult. It is a knowledge-based subject, so it is research-intensive; some might find that boring," cautions Dr Lee Kong Hung of Universiti Tunku Abdul Rahman (Utar), where the Biotechnology programme was introduced this year.
Although it is hardly a new area, the government's recent commitment to the growth of the industry, combined with the global trend has made it a very attractive field.
The Bio Valley project, launched last year, could further create up to 17,000 biotechnology-related job opportunities within 10 years, the government announced.
The head of the Engineering and Science Faculty, however, advises students against jumping on the bandwagon,
"Students who are interested should do a thorough research before making any decisions. They have to understand the topic, know what it's all about and what it will offer," says Dr Lee.

The wonderful folks at Baileys ( #1 liqueur in the world ) have come out with a new line of premium coffee creamers (produced by HP Hood). They contain no alcohol and come in 7 popular flavors : French Vanilla, Hazelnut, Caramel, Irish Cream, Creme Brulee, Toffee Almond and Chocolate. They all come in 16 oz. containers with the French Vanilla, Hazelnut and Irish Cream being available in a 32 oz. size also. If you're lucky you'll find them in your grocer's refrigerated section. If not, they'll be coming soon. They're set to sell around $2.50 for the 16 oz. and $4 for the 32 oz.
Now I tell you all this because the Baileys folks very kindly sent us some samples to try for ourselves. We were very surprised when 4, 16 oz. containers arrived, securely packaged, at our door. It contained 1 each of Chocolate, Toffee Almond, Creme Brulee and the original Irish Cream. How generous. We couldn't wait to try them.
THE VERDICT: Delicious ! I'll give them my highest honor....when we run out of our samples, I'm running out to the market to purchase some more. Not only were their distinct flavors fantastic tasting but the product seemed to change the consistency of the coffee itself. The coffee seemed so much more creamy and smooth. Best of all the flavors were spot-on. The Irish Cream tasted like Baileys, the Chocolate added a hint of chocolate and the Toffee.....well, you get it. We couldn't have been more impressed with these great tasting creamers.
So thank you, Baileys! Thank you for creating a great new product and thank for for so generously sharing it with us.

I've had my DIR 615 router for quite some time. The hardware version is C1, firmware 3.01 originally. It's been fine for the most part (asides from connection issues now and then with the internet - which we rectified by unplugging modem and/or router). A couple nights ago we had a storm and the next morning the router would not connect to the internet. I tried unplugging the router and modem a number of times but could never establish a connection. The internet globe LED was originally orange but after I cut off the power, it never came back on. I tried a number of different cables between the modem and router and could not fix the issue. I bypassed the router totally and the internet works fine. After a lot of failed attempts, I decided to reset the router and reinstall it with the disc. I followed the instructions and kept getting error 322 that the router could not be found. I tried 3 different computers and 5 different wires to fix the problem but to no avail. I kept encountering the same error on each computer. Since the router can't be seen, I must bypass it totally to get any internet access so trying the online setup doesn't work because I can't connect to the router and then to the modem since there is no internet access. So now I'm stuck. I'm not sure if my router is damaged from the storm. All other lights work (LAN and wireless icon) but I can't get any internet access through the router. I'm not sure if I should just go buy another router or not. The installation checks out fine until connecting power to the router and then it can't be found.
Have you done a factory reset using the button in back?
Can you access the routers web page at 191.168.0.1 using a PC, wired to the router after the factory reset?
If you can't gain any access to the router after the factory reset, I would contact DLink and get the unit RMA'd.


My friend and colleague Leonid, an old-school photographer, brought from Russia a magnificent collection of cameras. One item he agreed to sell, was the Zorki4, which he had a few in his stock. Leonid told me a lot about these cameras, and how much he loved them. Totally analogic, the Zorki4 is indeed a work of art, built with precision and ingenuity – could be because it's a replica of the Leica II. While the Leica is very expensive, the Zorki4 is easy to find and much more affordable. As for the quality – after more than 50 years in use, I was eager to try and shoot with it.
The camera was manufactured in Russia at the late 50th by Krasnogorskiy Mechanicheskiy Zavo. The camera includes a Range-finding mechanism, which means you can handle the focus easily while looking inside the viewfinder. The view is not straight through the lens, since this is not a reflex camera and has no mirror, but you get some kind of double picture you need to combine inside the viewfinder.
The real problem is sensing the scale of the lens. With a rangefinder camera, you need to use a turret viewfinder (this device you see on top of the camera) that comes with 5 different changeable lenses. I used a 35mm Jupiter lens, so every time after focusing, I had to look through the turret viewfinder for fixing the composition. I admit it's a little bit frustrating going through this process, but after a while you get used to it.
Another important thing you should notice when handling this mechanic camera, is not to change the shutter speed (4) before cocking the knob of the film position (1). Doing otherwise may damage the delicate mechanism, and I don't think you'll find a costumers service to fix it for you.
I was scheduled for reserve duty in July 2011, so I thought it was a good idea to take the Zorki4 for testing in the hot & sunny weather of the southern Gaza strip. Since this camera does not include a light meter, I chose a Fuji 100asa film, and took advantage of the bright daylight of the desert.

That's me (last on the left) and the gang under a tree. I used the self timer in taking this photo.
A sunset over Tel-Aviv Beach.
The wide angle color photos I got with the Zorki4 are very much to my liking – the exposure, the focus etc. I would recommend using a light meter. I used a light meter application I've got on my IPhone. Even though the turret viewfinder slows the work a little bit, you can still enjoy working with this camera when street shooting. The camera is small, easy to handle and again, the price is very good (about 50$ on EBay).

Growth driven by domestic demand and hydrocarbons
Following a year of recession due to the pandemic, growth rebounded in 2021. It is expected to be more dynamic in 2022 thanks to household consumption. Household consumption is expected to improve as remittances recover and health restrictions are eased. Increased domestic demand will boost the services sector (50% of GDP). However, low rainfall forecasts and locust outbreaks could threaten the incomes of households dependent on agriculture (25% of GDP and 70% of the labour force). This will also affect inflation, which will nevertheless remain moderate. Furthermore, investments in hydrocarbons to exploit Lake Albert's resources and build a pipeline will also be an important driver of growth. Construction of the Tilenga and Kingfisher development projects, operated by TotalEnergies and China National Offshore Oil Corporation respectively, is expected to start in 2022, with exports expected to begin in 2025. In addition, the Karuma hydropower plant, which is expected to come online in 2022, will improve the country's energy supply, contributing to an improved operating environment. While donor funding will support public investment in infrastructure, reforms aimed at rebalancing the public accounts could dampen the authorities' ambitions. Investment will result in higher imports of capital goods, which will weigh on the contribution of net exports. This will be even more the case with a likely decline in gold revenues (44% of exports in 2020), following the suspension of its export by mining operators in response to the imposition of a 5% levy on refined gold and 10% on unrefined gold (July 2021). Exports will also continue to be constrained by the trade dispute with Kenya, which has, for instance, imposed a 7% surcharge on imports of Ugandan milk. However, coffee exports (12% of exports), supported by high prices, could buck this trend.
Twin deficits supported by international aid
The budget deficit is expected to narrow in 2021/22 as growth accelerates. Reforms in tax administration, the introduction of new taxes on internet packages and an increase in customs duties will help mobilise revenue. On the expenditure side, capital investment in infrastructure and security will be a priority. However, interest on debt, which represented more than 20% of fiscal revenues in 2020/21 (mainly due to interest on domestic debt), will continue to weigh on public finances. To support fiscal consolidation efforts, the country will benefit from IMF support under a three-year ECF programme for an amount of USD 1 billion. Moreover, the financing of the public deficit will rely mainly on concessional sources, notably multilateral creditors, who already hold more than 60% of external debt (64% of the public debt). Less concessional debt to China (20% of public external debt) is also expected to continue.
The current account deficit is expected to widen in 2022. The increase in export revenues linked to the recovery in activity will be offset by imports of capital goods, particularly those needed for hydrocarbon projects. The services deficit will also deteriorate, as the slow recovery in tourism receipts will not offset payments for transport and construction services in the Lake Albert development. Accelerated repatriation of profits by foreign firms and interest payments on debt will widen the primary income balance, while increased remittances and foreign aid will fuel the secondary income surplus. Financing of the current account deficit is expected to rely on international donor support and FDI in oil projects. A widening current account deficit will increase domestic demand for USD, encouraging a modest depreciation of the shilling, but the allocation of Special Drawing Rights in 2021 (worth USD 492 million) strengthened foreign reserves (covering 4 months' worth of imports).
Social frustration and security crisis
President Yoweri Museveni, in power since 1986, and his party, the National Resistance Movement (NRM), won the general election in January 2021. With more than 58% of the vote, the president won a sixth term, beating Robert Kyagulanyi (also known as Bobi Wine), a singer and member of parliament. However, given that the results have been subject to accusations of fraud, political tensions are expected to remain high. Surveillance of opponents, starting with Robert Kiagulanyi, who is again under house arrest in December 2021, is expected to amplify dissatisfaction with the regime's grip on power. His arrest in November 2020 sparked protests that were repressed by law enforcement, resulting in 54 deaths, according to Human Rights Watch. Poor socio-economic conditions and perceived corruption also fuel tensions. Concomitantly, the security situation has deteriorated with the activity of Allied Democratic Forces (ADF) insurgents affiliated with the Islamic State. In late 2021, they claimed responsibility for several attacks, including the double suicide bombing in Kampala (November 2021). In response, Uganda and the Democratic Republic of Congo launched a joint military operation in North Kivu and Ituri (DRC).

My kiddo just turned 11 in the spring of this year, which means it's the last season she'll have to sit on the sidelines as the tagalong during hunting season. She'll get to experience hunting as the hunter next season after she takes hunter safety this winter and applies for her tag in 2019. Let me tell you, she is stoked.
It's something she has been looking forward to since her first hunting trip five years ago. My husband is pretty excited too, meticulously testing reduced velocity .308 Winchester rounds, and even shopping for a smaller stock to put on it so she can graduate from her own .22 and get some good practice in this fall.
I'm not much of a hunter myself, but I am beyond thrilled that she has such a keen interest. This is something that she and her step-dad can do together and create lasting memories. There is so much value in this time-honored tradition beyond the blessing of filling your freezer.
This is hands down one of the most positive things that comes from teaching your kids to hunt. Part of the hunting experience is learning how to properly handle and respect firearms – in turn, taking the mystery away and stifling any misplaced curiosity that could lead to tragedy.
Getting fresh air and even a little dirty is good for you! These days, more often than not, a good portion of our time is spent staring at a screen in a room with fluorescent lights. Recent studies have shown that spending time outdoors is critical for human health, even lowering blood pressure, as well as activating and exercising your senses much more than a phone or a video game ever could. So, peel your kid off the couch and show them the workout they can get by scouting for an animal or hiking through the woods, and that you don't have to live in a gym to stay fit!
We all want our children to grow into well-rounded adults, and hunting can help your child be more patient and build endurance (when scouting for an animal), as well as learning the art of discipline (in waiting for the perfect moment to take their shot), responsibility and ethics (in the brevity of taking an animal's life), and dealing with disappointment when things don't go as planned.
Hunting is a great privilege, and something humans have been doing for millennia. When kids hunt, they learn about balance, taking and giving. It's an important lesson to learn how to take only what you need. They also discover that they play an important role in terms of population control, as well as their contribution in funding wildlife conservation when they purchase their tags.
You are doing the sport a great service by teaching your child (and future adult hunter) sportsman etiquette and proper hunting skills. They are the hunters of the future, and you are helping keep the tradition and sport alive by getting them involved early.
So, do yourself and your kid a favor and get them out in the field this fall and make some memories!

Islamic State War Atrocities: Crimes Against Humanity And Genocide
According to a report conducted by the United Nations Human Rights office following a request from the Iraqi government, the Islamic State has committed crimes against humanity and genocide in its attempt to force its beliefs upon the Middle East. The jihadist organization may have possibly committed genocide while trying to eliminate the Yazidi minority in Iraq.
On Thursday, March 19, United Nations released a report discussing various crimes committed by the Islamic State: murders, torture, rape, abduction, sexual slavery and using children as soldiers. The data was acquired from interviews with more than 100 witnesses and surviving victims of Iraq attacks from June 2014 to February 2015. The report shows many violent operations aimed at ethnic and religious groups like the Yazidis, Christians, Kurds, Shia and Turkmen.
The Islamic State now controls various regions in Iraq and Syria where countless and systematic attacks targeting the Yazidi minority have taken place. The report stated the aim of these operations was "to destroy the Yazidi as a group" which led to the accusation of IS being "guilty of genocide" against this minority.
In many Yazidi settlements men and boys older than 14 were abducted and shot. According to the report, some areas "were entirely emptied of their Yazidi population." The Yazidi follow an ancient religion that is a mix of Christianity, Islam and Zoroastrianism but are considered Satanists by the Sunni Muslim fighters.
On February 3, a mass grave was discovered by Kurdish forces near Sinuni, an Iraqi village. The grave contained remains of Yazidi members.
Among other crimes committed by IS are those against women which were taken as "spoils of war" or were sold as sex slaves. Some women were given to IS members as "gifts". There were situations were girls, even younger than six, we heard screaming for help from the houses used by IS militants to rape them.
A 19-year old girl, IS victim, told agents she had been raped countless times for the duration of two and a half months by an IS "doctor". He also intentionally sat on her abdomen because he considered the baby should die as it was an infidel.
Some boys were not killed. They were forced to accept Islam as their religion. They were given military and religious training which included watching beheading clips.

If you've noticed the ghosts of pimples past still lingering as new ones form, try this: Exfoliating enzymes help resurface skin while salicylic acid helps stifle future breakouts.
If you know acne products, you know most formulas rely on one or two active ingredients to get the job done. But with tea tree oil, kaolin clay, and sulfur, this guy checks all the boxes.
If you're only acne-prone in certain areas—along your jawline, for instance—this stick makes it easy to multi-mask. At the brand's launch event, actress and comedian Sasheer Zamata said she uses three stick formulas—all in various colors—at once: "When you put them on, you look so insane that no one wants to talk to you, so you get a little moment [to yourself]." Ah, sweet relaxation!
When used as a daily cleanser, this benzoyl peroxide-spiked formula helps keep oily skin in check. For a deeper clean—that leaves pores free of breakout-causing build-up—slather it on as a mask.
After a flare-up, ease your skin into recovery mode by applying a generous coat of this comforting mask. The oatmeal base soothes skin as it hydrates.


So I have two 2950 switches and I'm looking to get a router. Should I get a 2503 or a 2514 router, what are the differences?
I wouldn't get either of those routers unless you need a paper weight. Go for something a bit more modern.
for studying for the ccna there is no difference, they are both crap. even with max memory they are only capable of running version 12.3 of the ios. the current ccna test comes from equipment running version 15 of the ios. you need at least 12.4 to support the things you need to know for the test like ssh, intervlan routing, nat/pat, ipv6, etc.
the 2514 has no token ring port, but has two ethernet auis. each aui needs a transceiver to provide a 10mb ethernet port.

DOJ is suing Facebook for discriminating against US workers
10:08 am December 4, 2020 By Roland Hutchinson
The Department of Justice in the US has announced that it has filed a lawsuit against Facebook for discriminating against US workers.
The DOJ is alleging that Facebook has favored H-1B Visa workers and other temporary Visa workers over US workers.
The lawsuit alleges that Facebook refused to recruit, consider, or hire qualified and available U.S. workers for over 2,600 positions that Facebook, instead, reserved for temporary visa holders it sponsored for permanent work authorization (or "green cards") in connection with the permanent labor certification process (PERM). The positions that were the subject of Facebook's alleged discrimination against U.S. workers offered an average salary of approximately $156,000. According to the lawsuit, and based on the department's nearly two-year investigation, Facebook intentionally created a hiring system in which it denied qualified U.S. workers a fair opportunity to learn about and apply for jobs that Facebook instead sought to channel to temporary visa holders Facebook wanted to sponsor for green cards.
"The Department of Justice's lawsuit alleges that Facebook engaged in intentional and widespread violations of the law, by setting aside positions for temporary visa holders instead of considering interested and qualified U.S. workers," said Assistant Attorney General Eric S. Dreiband of the Civil Rights Division. "This lawsuit follows a nearly two-year investigation into Facebook's practices and a 'reasonable cause' determination by the Justice Department's Civil Rights Division. Our message to workers is clear: if companies deny employment opportunities by illegally preferring temporary visa holders, the Department of Justice will hold them accountable. Our message to all employers — including those in the technology sector — is clear: you cannot illegally prefer to recruit, consider, or hire temporary visa holders over U.S. workers."

The Queen of Hearts
by Wilkie Collins
AT a time when French readers were altogether unaware of the existence of any books of my writing, a critical examination of my novels appeared under your signature in the Revue des Deux Mondes. I read that article, at the time of its appearance, with sincere pleasure and sincere gratitude to the writer, and I have honestly done my best to profit by it ever since.
William Wilkie Collins was born in London in 1824, the son of a successful and popular painter. On leaving school, he worked in the office of a tea merchant in the Strand before reading law as a student at Lincoln's Inn. However his real passion was for writing and, in 1850, he published his first novel, Antonina.
In 1851, the same year that he was called to the bar, he met and established a lifelong friendship with Charles Dickens. While Collins' fame rests on his best known works, The Woman in White and The Moonstone, he wrote over thirty books, as well as numerous short stories, articles and plays. He was a hugely popular writer in his lifetime. An unconventional individual, he never married but established long-term liaisons with two separate partners. He died in 1889.

JACKSONVILLE, Illinois – The Earlham College volleyball team opened its 2017 season by splitting a pair of matches at the Illinois College Tournament on Friday. The Quakers fell to Greenville College 3-2 (25-22, 22-25, 15-25, 25-20, 15-9) and defeated Fontbonne University (25-20, 25-22, 25-23).
In the loss to the Panthers, the Quakers took a 2-1 lead, but could not hold it against a team that qualified for the NCAA Division III Tournament in 2016.
Freshman Julia Stewart and sophomore Ashleigh Burton combined for 32 of Earlham's 53 kills. Burton, a First Team All-Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference (HCAC) selection last season, also finished with nine digs and six blocks. Sophomore setter Lauren Jackson dished out 39 assists while junior Megan Hedinger anchored the back row with 29 digs.
As a team, the Quakers hit a .124 clip with 93 digs and 8.5 blocks.
In the victory over the Falcons, Earlham improved its hitting percentage to .180 while also recording 9.5 team blocks.
Burton (13), Stewart (12) and freshman Carly Federinko (10) tallied double digits in kills while Hedinger (22), junior Denisha Mataia (14) and sophomore Sydney Ameluxen (12) had double digit digs. Jackson averaged a dozen assists per set in the victory.
Earlham (1-1) will face two more St. Louis Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SLIAC) opponents in MacMurray College and Blackburn College tomorrow (Saturday).

Last month I baked twisted sausage bun using Water Roux Starter or Tangzhong Starter and I love the softness and moisture texture of the bun very much.So this time I adapted previous recipe slightly to make another batch of the same bun but using cream cheese as the filling and shredded cheese on the top..If you're cheese lover like my family,this recipe using cheddar cheese and cream cheese is suitable for you!
1:Place Ingredients (B) and (A) into bread machine.Push kneading button and let's the machine do the work.When it's ready,the beep sound goes off.
bowl, covered with a plastic wrap, and leave in a warm place until dough is double in volume, about an hour. Press the dough down to release gases produced in the fermenting process. 3:Divide dough into 15 portions, each is about 50-55 grams and round up and rest for 10 minutes at the room temperature.
4:Roll the small portion dough into obolong shape.Cut cream cheese about 10 gm each or cube size.Wrap the oblong shape dough over the cream cheese before shape into your favourite shape. Place on a baking tray and cover with a plastic wrapper. Leave to rise for 45-60 minutes.
5: When the buns have doubled in size, brush them with reserved egg mixture, before sprinkle with shredded cheese on the top.
6:Bake in preheated oven at 175C/350F .Bake for 25 minutes or until golden brown. When done, turn the buns onto a wire rack and let cool before serve.
I have yet to try out water roux starter, your bun look very soft, must be very yummy.
Lady, you are so hardworking! You are still making bread from scratch!
I just love using tangzhong in bread making. It produce such a soft bread. Now I am trying out the custard method. Still need some tweaking to it.
Looks amazing! The bread looks so soft!
I love these golden cheesy soft rolls!
yum yum! oozy cheese rolls! this is an interesting way of making them too. Gotta read it in more detail!
Thank you ladies for your lovely comment and kind words..yes now I love to use tangzhong water to make bread..it's really taste wonderful soft and moist for days!!!
There's so much rave about this method it seems like i really have to give this method a shot!
I'd like to know how to adapt my usual bread recipe to the tangzhong method. Do I add the tangzhong to the same amount of ingredients or should I deduct the quantity of flour and water used for the tangzhong from that specified by the recipe?
This looks great! I actually made a -angzhong recipe this past week too - mine had an Italian sauce on top of it, I'll have it posted eventually!
Does it work for large quantity?
Very appreciative work done by you.
Nice post, Thanks for sharing such a wonderful recipe.
