In the nine years since the outbreak of the global financial crisis of 2008, there has been panic in the markets. At the end of 2015 and the beginning of 2016, for example, it seemed for a moment that they were collapsing along with the Chinese stock exchanges, the price of oil and the European banks - but the recovery was very rapid.
Global growth, which we have not seen for many years, zero inflation and low-interest rates, together with expectations of an increase in corporate profits during the current reporting season, have led to money desperately seeking yields and continuing to flow into stock markets.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average, which is the 2008 crisis collapsed from 14,000 to 6,500 in five months, is currently at a record high of more than 23,000.
In the United States, multiplier levels are rising all the time - that is, share prices are rising faster than companies' profits. All this happens in parallel to very low-interest rates and very moderate inflationary pressures.
However, it is forbidden to be complacent - and it is worth monitoring the activity of the central banks, noting that there is no situation in which inflation starts to rise faster than market expectations. The current chairman of the Fed, Janet Yellen, has raised interest rates so far at a slow pace - but its replacement, whose identity is still unknown, may adopt a policy of much faster interest rate increases. Today, the interest rate can be raised faster, because of the recovery in corporate profits and growth, and it is possible that the next Fed Chairman will decide to accelerate the pace.

Best Marketing Campaign
Soylent "Soy Route"
Developing a brand with a niche target consumer base can be bountiful, so long as you have a full understanding of who they are and where they hang. Soylent did, burrowing right into the 'Deep Web.' The Silicon Valley-ishness of this meal replacement company managed to raise our eyebrows initially, but they won big this year with their core audience of techies when they launched "Soy Route," a promotional online marketplace hosted on the darknet, an anonymous section of the internet mostly known for nefarious activity. With a tongue-in-cheek reference to The Silk Road, Soylent sold limited edition flavors and branded collectibles that could be purchased using - natch! - Bitcoin. Designed with firm Wieden+Kennedy, Soy Route was only accessible via the special Tor web browser and went largely unheard of among the mainstream consumers Soylent is now targeting with its launch into retail. But that was the point: the site was a smash hit among its web-savvy subscribers on Reddit and word quickly spread throughout the tech world, the exact base Soylent wants to hold on to as it pivots toward the meatspace-based, RTD conventional retail world. Innovative, edgy, and funny, Soy Route proved Soylent's loyalty to its loyalists.

There are thousands of books and websites out there advising you how to write your CV, I want to give three practical tips and explain why they're important to the person who handles your CV.
Most CVs of professional mid-career people are more than one page, if that's true of your CV please add a footer with your name and page numbers in it.
Usually CVs get printed out for the assessors to read, it's easy for papers to be shuffled around and then it's a pain to sort out the pages. I've even resorted to reprinting CVs on occasion just to be sure I have it organised. I do own a stapler-but I'd rather be able to spread papers out and compare them.
Please add both your email address and your phone number.
In these days of mobiles with voice mail there's no reason not to add a mobile number. You may want to use a personal email address, but take care – wildsexthing69@mail.com is not going to prove your professionalism in most occupations.
As the recruiter I will want to contact you quickly and easily, by phone is fastest, by email means I can send you more detailed information.
I'm still surprised when applicants don't do this, it shows a lack of thought regarding how their CV will be handled.
Usually there are several applicants, and I save their files to the same folder. If your name isn't in the file name it's harder for me to figure out which is your CV. Of course I can rename the file, but why would you as an applicant want to make me do that.
These might seem obvious, but I've just been reviewing a set of CVs, and apparently they're not.

Home Parks Lake Manyara National Park
Located in two administrative regions; Manyara and Arusha, Lake Manyara is one of Tanzania's most amazing national parks.
The Park is just a 1 hour and half hours' drive from Arusha and it is also within a close proximity to the popular and alluring Ngorongoro crater.
That aside, Lake Manyara National Park is most popular for its unique tree climbing lions which cannot be found anywhere else with the exception of it and Uganda's remarkable Queen Elizabeth National Park. Lake Manyara, a soda ash lake along with its flamingos is among the other most outstanding attractions in the Park.
To people who have not yet seen these unique types of lions, which climb trees, might have peculiar looks after they have heard of the term 'tree climbing lions' as it is really atypical for the lions to scale trees and perch atop branches.
However, you will be amazed by these unusual species of lions once you visit Lake Manyara National Park.
Though there are rumors that these species of lions can also be spotted in Tarangire National Park and in South Africa's Kruger National Park too, you are really not guaranteed that you will see them in those Parks as you are guaranteed when you visit Lake Manyara and Queen Elizabeth National Parks.
Besides its unusual and amazing tree climbing lions, the Park has very many attractions that sparkle tourists who always go there for holidays or wildlife safaris.
Among the other wildlife species to spot in the Park include; cheetahs, leopards, usual lions, elephants, giraffes, hippos, zebras, dik-diks, impalas, Masai giraffes, and over 400 bird species, including the flamingos that throng banks of the alkaline Lake Manyara.
Activities in the Park
Tree-top walkway; the Park is really very unique as you will indulge in an uncommon activity of treetop walkway where you get a thrilling sky-high adventure straight through the forest.
It is a 370 meters' air-walk, and begins right from the short board-walk as in the due course you rise in an altitude leading to a series of suspension bridges with secure netting on either side, thus giving you a bird's-eye view of the forest.
The tree-top walkway activity is really unmissable as it offers priceless memories – you will feel as if you're up in the sky having stunning views from there, nothing can ever be unforgettable than this – wow!!
The other fascinating activities in the Park include; day and night game drives, superb bird watching, canoeing, and cultural encounters (Masai People).
The Park's Accessibility
By your private car, the Park is just a one and half hours' drive from Arusha though it can also be easily accessed from Babati, the capital of Manyara region. However, you can also access the Park by air as there is an airport – Lake Manyara Airport.

On the Market: Classically Contemporary House in Gladwyne
This distinctive Peter Batchelor composition pours traditional Main Line elegance into a contemporary container that makes it look fresh and new.

700 Mill Creek Rd., Gladwyne, Pa. 19035 | Images via Kurfiss Sotheby's International Realty; sketch: Peter Batchelor via Kurfiss Sotheby's International Realty
Many of the newer mansions in Gladwyne, the region's swankiest zip code, show off the architectural affectations "McMansion Hell" loves to skewer. And inside them, you'll find plenty of evidence that their owners have more money than taste.
This house for sale is not one of those newer mansions. On the contrary, it's a one-of-a-kind work that expertly blends contemporary and traditional design in a way that elevates them both.
As the sketch above shows, noted Main Line architect Peter Batchelor took advantage of this house's sloping lot to create a pair of structures that employ the low-slung aesthetic of contemporary houses to ground themselves on the site.
But on the inside, these houses don't feel low-slung. The ten-foot-high ceilings give the rooms an expansive feel, and the large single-pane windows open them up to the outside.
And the rooms themselves follow an open plan. The living room is especially spacious, and the formal dining room bright and airy. Whether you choose to furnish them in a traditional style (as in the living room) or a more contemporary one (as in the dining room), the rooms will flatter your decor.
The kitchen has the equipment you need to entertain on a large scale. It has a separate refrigerator and freezer, a six-burner gas cooktop with grill, three wall ovens and two dishwashers. A large butler's pantry with additional sink and counter space sits next to it.
The kitchen is also one with the airy breakfast room, whose French doors open onto a deck ideally suited for outdoor entertaining and relaxation.
The master bedroom has a skylight and a large spa bathroom.
This house also has some really sweet extras, too, like the sauna in its gym, a totally open sunroom next to the pool, and a downstairs billiard room. An elevator connects all three of its levels.
Terrace and guest house
And there's a guest house that could be used as a home office next to it, with an attractively landscaped terrace between the two.
Finally, it offers both privacy and convenience. It sits on a gated and wooded 2.88-acre lot across the street from parkland, and it's a short drive from here to the Narberth and Ardmore town centers.

Where to Get Fantastic Schwarma in Philadelphia


…Left 4 Dead 2 is running at 315 FPS on Linux. That the Linux version runs faster than the Windows version (270.6) seems a little counter-intuitive, given the greater amount of time we have spent on the Windows version. However, it does speak to the underlying efficiency of the kernel and OpenGL.
Well, I guess that's that. Valve has shown that Left 4 Dead runs better in Linux than in Windows. That basically strips away the last possible reason why anybody would want to use Windows. Not to mention that, even without official ports, Valve software has always run flawlessly under Linux with Wine. Wine can even run older Win95 games that you can't run on modern versions of Windows anymore. So I guess Linux is better at running Windows programs than Windows is. Ouch.
Windows fanboys, come at me!

BSWRI, TGen Partner to Develop Multi-Marker Panel for Early Pancreatic Cancer Detection
Dec 20, 2017 | John Gilmore
NEW YORK (GenomeWeb) – An international research team led by the Baylor Scott & White Research Institute (BSWRI) and Translational Genomics Research Institute (TGen) has begun developing an early detection system for pancreatic cancer after securing a federal grant from the National Cancer Institute.
According to Sunil Sharma, TGen's deputy director of clinical sciences, clinicians currently lack an accurate and effective screening methodology for pancreatic cancer. By the time doctors diagnose the patients with the condition, the disease has metastasized to other parts in the body.
"[Pancreatic cancer] is rapidly increasing in incidence, and there is a huge urgency to develop a screening test," Sharma said. "As the third most common type of cancer, over 20,000 people are diagnosed each year."
With the help of a five-year, $5.1 million grant from the NCI's Pancreatic Cancer Detection Consortium, the collaborators aim to identify high-risk precancerous lesions and early-stage pancreatic cancer in patients who are candidates for surgery or other types of intervention.
According to Ajay Goel, one of the study's principal investigators and director of the Center for Gastrointestinal Research at BSWRI, previous studies have not discovered exclusive liquid biopsy markers for early stage pancreatic cancer. Previous research has only applied known RNA biomarkers in other contexts or cancers by validating them for pancreatic cancer, "instead of discovering comprehensively sequencing-based approaches" for early stage pancreatic cancer. In addition, most teams have focused on biomarkers for advanced stages of pancreatic cancer, which Goel believes is counterintuitive to treatment.
Goel's team at BSWRI will examine a variety of molecular markers including proteins and DNA, while focusing most importantly on microRNAs (miRNAs), which help regulate genes and cancer development. They aim to discover candidate cell-free and exosomal-miRNA biomarkers using whole genome small RNA-Seq in matched tissue and plasma from patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), precancerous neoplasms (PNs), pancreatitis, and normal pancreas.
Working in tandem with universities and medical centers around the US, South Korea, and Japan, the researchers will have a prospective, diverse biorepository of cancer samples to examine.
"We will perform close to three to four thousand prospective enrollment samples over eight sites in the next five years, which will not only be important for our own projects, but will also become another important resource for other ... investigators on pancreatic cancer," Goel explained.
The researchers will combine the multiple signals into a biomarker panel that distinguishes patients with PDAC from patients with PNs or pancreatitis. While sensitivity is not a problem for the panel because of the multiple copies of RNA that exist in the pancreatic cells, Goel admits that specificity will be a concern with miRNA-based biomarkers.
In order to address the problem, the team will also examine exosomal RNAs in patient samples. The miRNAS can resist nuclease-mediated degradation in tissues, blood, and other body fluids because of their small size and exosome shells.
"We know that the exosomes are produced by epithelial cells from the tumor cells, and their microvesicle membrane carries the cell surface markers from the cell of origin," Goel explained. "We can [then] pull out exosomes from blood by looking at antigens expressed on the cell surface for that particular organ, since we know for sure that they're from the pancreas, and enrich them and open up to see what's inside."
Goel and his team will then attempt to use the panel prospectively to identify groups of patients with PDAC and PNs. Because miRNA expression patterns are highly tissue-specific, they may indicate early malignancies in the organ of origin, even if measured in a patient's bloodstream.
Since the grant approval in September, the consortium has initiated multiple different projects, beginning with the kickoff meeting earlier this month in Phoenix, Arizona. While teams across the eight sites have finished collecting initial cell samples, Sharma said that official RNA-Seq trials will start in early 2018. Goel believes that working with teams at the different universities and cancer centers on different biomarkers will allow true semi-blind validation of biomarkers.
"We already have access to a large quantity of samples," Goel explained. "We plan to perform [sequencing on] three to four thousand samples from patients over the next four to five years."
In addition to searching for early-stage biomarkers for pancreatic cancer, Goel believes that the methodology could be applied to other types of cancer, including esophageal, ovarian, and colorectal cancer (CRC). In the last decade, Goel's team has discovered, validated, published, and patented novel DNA methylation and various non-coding RNA-based biomarkers as potential biomarkers for the early detection of gastrointestinal cancers.
In 2015, Goel and his team at Baylor University published a study that focused on miRNA biomarkers for CRC to determine metastasis risk.
Goel believes the international consortium will produce "promising panels or markers for translational potential to be used in the clinic for commercialization."
The miRNA biomarker panel for pancreatic cancer being developed by Goel's team may eventually produce a non-invasive, early-warning system that will potentially allow clinicians to detect the disease before it metastasizes further into the patient's bloodstream.

Take baby steps
To be real, we all face questions and fears when we try to decide on our first solo trip. What if we're not safe by ourselves? What if we get into trouble? That's why you can start by starting small and visiting nearby cities to break that fear and build confidence.
Look around!
When using maps, pay attention to your surroundings and not just the direction on the screen, to be aware of what is going on around you. Make the best use of your Smartphone
- Share your location with your friends and family so that at least one person is aware of where you are in case you need to be located.
- Use Maps - Download an offline version of maps for the location you are visiting, so that you don't get lost in case you lose your internet connection.
- Use a Translation App - It is important to have an idea of the local language and to understand what is being said to you.
- Carry your phone charger and portable charger with you at all times, because in a country where you are all alone, your phone is one of your most important belongings.
- Get an International Phone Plan so that you can stay connected with your friends and family.
- Save the nearby precinct's number on your phone when choosing a destination, so that you can always call the police if you're in danger.
Why Should Every Woman Try Solo Travel At Least Once?
Going on a solo trip as a woman can be very empowering. Women are often expected to fit into the nurturing role of our societies. However, just because a woman can do that, doesn't mean she has to bury her desires and only take care of the people around her. A woman's needs are just as important as the needs of the people around her. Going on a solo trip means it's just about you. You do what you want and when you want to do it. Once you create that itinerary and pick up that heavy backpack just by yourself, you realize how self-sufficient and independent you actually are.
Benefits Of Taking A Solo Trip As A Woman
Discover Yourself
Who are you away from home, when you are not an employee or a boss, a mother, a wife, a daughter, or a sister? When you go on a solo trip, you get time to reflect and reconnect with yourself. You get to focus on who you are and what you want.
When you travel with friends or family, you're more likely to stay within the group, and hardly interact with strangers. If you travel solo, you are more likely to interact with the people around you, whether it's because you need recommendations or directions, or simply because you are lonely and crave human interaction. If you travel solo, you can collect friends from all over the world.
Traveling solo means you don't have to worry about others. You get to focus on yourself only, and even though our society stereotypes it as being selfish, it doesn't matter, because, at the end of the day, you and your mental health are what matter.
Embrace Your Personal Freedom Without Being Judged
When you travel solo, you can do whatever your heart desires, without the judgmental eyes of society following you. You're away from home, and no one really knows you, so it doesn't matter what they think. You'll most likely never see them again.
Get a Confidence Boost
Once you realize you have made it to a destination by yourself, you'll realize how independent and capable you happen to be, which will boost your confidence. You are responsible for planning, paying, organizing and pulling off a successful trip, and once you're able to do that, you realize your abilities. You learn to rely on and trust yourself and know that it is you who makes your own decisions, no one else.
Invitation to join a trip!


Fans now have a more detailed look at the double-edged blade Thanos will be rocking in Avengers: Endgame, courtesy of a new action figure.
The Sideshow Collectibles item depicts the Mad Titan leaping off a rock with the blade in hand, and it truly sculpts an intimidating weapon. We can see the tips of both ends of the twin-blade are very sharp, with the edges slightly serrated. We also have a closer look at the central hilt, although the images don't show if it can separate and provide the villain with two swords.
When fans first got wind of Thanos' new weapon, many began speculating as to why he'd need one, and whether or not he still had the power of the Infinity Gauntlet. Some theories even suggest this could be Thanos in a different time period.
But from this statue, it's very clear the Mad Titan is going to be cutting as lethal a figure as any, and when he meets Earth's Mightiest Heroes in a rematch, this blade is designed to spill blood.

Southwick regional students shift to fully remote learning Nov. 9
By Hope E. Tremblay
Hampden County COVID cases trigger switch per teacher's union contract as renegotiations take place to bring students back in school quickly
SOUTHWICK – Parents had mixed reactions to the announcement that Southwick-Tolland-Granville Regional Schools will switch to fully remote learning starting Nov. 9.
The announcement was made Nov. 5 via email from Superintendent Jennifer Willard who said earlier this week that the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Southwick teacher's union stated that if Hampden County's positive COVID rate rises above 3%, district schools would shift online. The rate was 3.74% at the time of the announcement. Willard also said that they were renegotiating the MOU.
"Since the MOU was executed, additional guidance has been received from DESE and the parties have agreed to resume negotiations," she wrote. "We are optimistic that a new agreement will be reached that will utilize metrics that are more directly reflective of our school community. Execution of a new agreement could alter the timeline for reopening. We strongly believe that there is no replacement for in-person learning and the connections between students, teachers and peers. Please know we are working as fast as we can to once again provide in-person learning."
Some parents took to social media to voice their opinions, many of which were disappointed with the switch. A Facebook post about the announcement on The Southwick Community Forum included comments lamenting the switch because it is "sad" for students. One poster said the situation was part of the "chaos of 2020." Most comments noted that teachers are doing a great job this year, whether they are teaching in-person or remotely.
"I am happy for the amount of time my son got to enjoy in person learning," said Christine Greco. "The school and employees are doing an awesome job and I am very confident that once negotiations are made they will be going back fairly fast. The students are a lot more resilient than everyone gives them credit for."
Audrey Farsnworth-Herbert said she chose to have her children, in grades two and 10, fully remote from the start.
"I was worried about my 7-year-old and how she would do on the computer but, it's been great," said Farnsworth-Herbert. "The teachers have been amazing keeping them on task and giving them breaks to get up and move around. Only a few occasions where I had to help and that was mostly towards the beginning. They now do their school day 99% on their own and only time I'm needed is lunchtime. It's been a great experience for us and the teachers have been total rockstars!"
Willard said the district has the best interest of students at the forefront of all decisions.
"I have never been so proud to be part of a school district that prioritizes what is best for students," Willard wrote Thursday. "Our District has the highest percentage of students participating in in-person learning in Western Massachusetts. It was a collaborative effort to open schools in early September and in order to do so, we needed to create a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) between the District and the Teachers' Union to ensure that safety measures were put in place as we reopened our doors during a pandemic. As we were ahead of other districts, we crafted our MOA with the best available data at that time, which was on county positivity metrics."
Willard noted that the temporary shift to fully remote learning would be "an additional hardship as you juggle work with supervising your children at home."
Families in need of technology assistance should contact their child's school and devices will be distributed Nov. 9 for anyone who notified the district that their child needs a device.
Willard said the teachers are prepared for the switch.
"I just want to assure you, our staff spent the summer and early fall developing plans and receiving training on remote learning, Microsoft Office and Zoom," Willard said. "Teachers will use a combination of best practices, including live, whole class instruction, teacher-led small group work, and independent student work to help keep your children engaged."
Willard said families will receive specific information about schedules, assignments and expectations from teachers and asked parents for help.
"We need your help in making this a smooth transition," wrote Willard. "There is no doubt that our students will be disappointed. It is important for them to know that we are eager to return to our school buildings as soon as an agreement can be reached and it is safe to do so. We will be updating you regularly on our plans and are asking that you reach out to your teacher or principal with questions and concerns.
"We appreciate your partnership as we navigate this unprecedented year."
The district is currently following a hybrid model, with students in grades 5-12 in school two days per week and three days remote. Some students with high needs, as well as students up to grade four, attend in-person every day. Some students opted for fully remote learning this year.

Game Cookbooks and Recipes
Game meats are meat from wild animals that are hunted for food, as well as meat from animals which are not normally domesticated (for example, venison from farmed deer). Obviously, the types of animals in different countries do vary widely, and thus the choice of game meats do. For example, game meats in Australia include emu, kangaroo, and crocodile (among others), whereas in North America they include American bison, elk, moose, etc.
Some game recipes include:
Bigos - This is a traditional Polish recipe. It is a stew made from fermented cabbage (kapusta kiszona - the Polish version of sauerkraut) or fresh cabbage, with meat. The meats used generally include venison, but other meats are usually added as well, and these may include bacon, beef, ham, kielbasa (Polish sausage), and pork (sometimes smoked). Mushrooms, tomatoes, and honey are also usually added to stew, as are various herbs and seasonings including bay leaf, caraway, juniper berries, marjoram, and pepper or pimento. Bigos is served with potatoes and rye bread.
Biltong - This is a South African recipe for making salted dried meat, creating a food similar to jerky. Biltong is usually made from beef or game.
Brunswick stew - Many Southern recipes are known for using game, and this stew is no exception. It is made from corn, lima beans, okra, tomatoes and other vegetables. Rabbit or squirrel meat is also used in the traditional recipe, although when this is not available, or if you prefer, other meats such as beef, chicken or pork can be substitued.
Fenkata - This is a Maltese recipe. It is made from rabbit meat which lightly fried and then simmered as a casserole for several hours, with tomato sauce or gravy.
Hasenpfeffer - This is a stew made from marinated rabbit meat, which originates in German cuisine. It has a a sour taste which comes from wine or vinegar which is in the stew.
Köttsoppa - This is a Swedish recipe for a meat and root vegetable soup. It can be made with reindeer meat, although beef is often used instead.

When outdoorsman, avid hunter, and nature writer Steven Rinella stumbles upon Auguste Escoffier's 1903 milestone Le Guide Culinaire, he's inspired to assemble an unusual feast: a forty-five-course meal born entirely of Escoffier's esoteric wild game recipes. Over the course of one unforgettable year, he steadily procures his ingredients—fishing for stingrays in Florida, hunting mountain goats in Alaska, flying to Michigan to obtain a fifteen-pound snapping turtle—and encountering one colorful character after another. And as he introduces his vegetarian girlfriend to a huntsman's lifestyle, Rinella must also come to terms with the loss of his lifelong mentor—his father. An absorbing account of one man's relationship with family, friends, food, and the natural world, The Scavenger's Guide to Haute Cuisine is a rollicking tale of the American wild and its spoils.
Praise for The Scavenger's Guide to Haute Cuisine

"If you rue the 'depersonalization of food production,' or you're tired of chemical ingredients, [Rinella] will make you howl."—Los Angeles Times
"A walk on the wild side of hunting and gathering, sure to repel a few professional food sissies but attract many more with its sheer in-your-face energy and fine storytelling."—Jim Harrison, author of Legends of the Fall

The great Mayans of the Mayan civilization predicted the world as we know it will end in 2012. The movie 2012 depicts this myth and brings it to life in a way that will shake the ground underneath you. This disaster movie depicts how humans can underestimate the forces of nature even when we think we can control these elements.
The movie starts before the date 2012 and works up to the date when the world begins a transformation that has never been seen by human eyes. The earth's crust is changing and changing in a way where the mantle, the largest body of the earth between the core and the crust is heating up at an alarming rate. Scientists around the world can see this occurring as water deep within the crust of the Earth is now reaching boiling points in which they have not been seen before.
What this all means scientifically is that the crust of the earth which all of our countries, states and people that inhabit these large masses of land are about to forgo a transformation and everyone is at risk. Only the top scientists of the world and top government officials have been made aware that all of this is happening and the general public has no idea these changes are occurring underneath them.
Then all at once in 2012 disaster strikes as volcanoes begin erupting in the rocky mountains. The Los Angeles coastline which lies on a major fault line begins to sink into the Earth and all over the world natural disasters such as typhoons and mammoth tidal waves are threatening coastal life all over the world. Humanity all over the world is at it's highest threat of being wiped out entirely.
In comes all the people trying to survive the disaster, who must face this grim day of when the world changes from the ground up. Everyday people like Jackson Curtis must help his family to safety, but where do you go when the whole world is turned upside down. The days and nights after the dreaded disasters is what tests these people to the fullest and really no one is safe from total annihilation.
The movie 2012 is an interesting film that strives on grand special effects . Without these ground breaking effects the movie loses some luster with a somewhat dull storyline. The science and theory behind 2012 is worth the admission, but don't expect Oscar winning performances as that seems to be the flaw in a disaster movie like this one. There are some grand cameos by recognized movie stars and the cast is full of notable actors and actresses but even so there just seems to be something else missing in the performances.
Overall, a good film but don't have high expectation and have an open mind to what is happening, instead of examining the character performances. Starring John Cusack, Amanda Peet, Danny Glover, Oliver Pratt and Chiwetel Ejiofor.


Dealing with brittle nails can be extremely challenging, especially when you want your nails to be looking picture-perfect. However, this condition is more common than you would think, affecting around 20% of the population.
If you think that you may have brittle nails, here are some common symptoms to look out for, as well as ways in which you can heal and strengthen your nails to bring them back to good health.
What Exactly Are Brittle Nails?
Brittle nails are exactly what they sound like – nails that have weakened and have taken on a brittleness.
You may also notice that your nails appear thinner or softer. .
Ever wondered why your nails have become this way?
There are several different factors that can contribute to brittle nails.
One of the most common is over-exposure to water, which is why the fingernails are usually more affected by brittleness than the toenails. Due to the frequency at which people wash their hands, this makes the fingernails so much more susceptible.
How exactly does exposure to water lead to brittle nails?
It is due to the way in which your nails would be fluctuating between dry and wet, which causes your nails to constantly be swelling and contracting. This weakens the nail structure and dries it out. This can often be even worse in the winter months, due to the dryness in the air, as well as in areas that have low humidity.
Exposure to chemicals – products such as nail polish removers often contain acetone. These not only strip the polish away from your nails, but remove your nails' natural oils too, resulting in brittleness. Even removers that do not contain acetone also often have oil-stripping solvents, so look for one that has been formulated with additional oils to keep your nails moisturized.
After reading through that list, you probably have a better idea as to what exactly is causing your own brittle nails.
As you can see from the list above, exposure to water is one of the main causes of brittle nails.
So, the first step in treating your brittle nails, while also preventing them from getting worse, is to minimize the amount of water exposure you subject your nails to.
Well, whether you are washing the dishes or cleaning the house, gloves are key. They will prevent your nails from coming into direct contact with the water, therefore saving them from drying out.
This is especially important when you plan on using hot water along with soaps and other chemicals, as the heat, combined with the chemicals, has an even bigger drying effect.
Considering swapping to a hand sanitizer to save washing your hands as often throughout the day?
Hand sanitizers can definitely be a convenient way to keep your hands clean, but many of these have been formulated with alcohol. Alcohol has a seriously drying effect on your skin and nails, meaning that this could end up making the problem so much worse.
A moisturizer goes a long way when it comes to protecting the skin and nails.
A moisturizer is designed to form a thin film over the surface of the skin. This not only helps to keep moisture trapped within, but it also prevents bacteria and other impurities from entering into the skin.
What sort of moisturizer should you be using?
Ideally one that has been designed for the area, such as a quality hand cream. This will contain hydrating ingredients to support the strength and integrity of your nails, as well as the skin that surrounds them.
As mentioned earlier, your cuticles are so important when it comes to protecting your nails and keeping them strong, so a cuticle oil or cream would also be extremely useful. These will heal and nourish your cuticles, enabling them to better protect your nails.
If you think that your brittle nails may be caused by a deficiency in biotin, then it goes without saying that you need to increase your biotin consumption in order to tackle your brittle nails.
There are plenty of biotin supplements out there, but before going down that route, you would be best off trying to consume more biotin through your diet first instead.
Which foods should you be eating more of?
If you are having trouble incorporating enough biotin-rich foods into your diet, then you may want to look into a supplement. These are available in many forms, from powders to capsules to liquids, giving you plenty of choice.
As mentioned earlier, nail polish removers contain several harsh chemicals that strip the nails of their natural oils.
The chemicals in nail polish removers have been linked to organ toxicity and damage to the reproductive system, and can also cause irritation to the skin, lungs and eyes.
Fortunately, there is an increasing choice now when it comes to natural and non-toxic nail polish removers, so you may want to give one of these a try if this is a product you often use.
The chemicals in soaps and cleaning products can be extremely damaging to your nails. However, if you use a pair of gloves first, as recommended above, you will be able to protect your nails from all of this.
Do you use a base coat when applying nail polish?
Well, if you have been applying your base coat onto bare nails, then this could be something else that is contributing to the brittleness of your nails.
I thought a base coat was meant to help protect my nails!
It does in a way, but base coats do also contain several harsh chemicals. These slowly attack the nail plate, leaving your nails weaker and more susceptible to breakages.
All you need to do is apply a small amount of hand cream to your nails first. This will act in a similar way to how a makeup primer works on the face, filling in any gaps and giving the nails a layer of protection before the base coat is applied. This also allows your nails to stay better hydrated once the polish is on.
Simply apply the cream, wait for it to dry, and then continue on with your base coat as normal.
If you can find nail polishes that are non-toxic, then that would be better, but you would still likely benefit from a layer of cream first.
Your nails need to be able to properly breathe in order to stay healthy.
However, many people tend to leave their nail polish on for way too long, only removing it when they are ready to apply a new coat.
This means that your nails are constantly being suffocated under the polish, and do not have the chance to properly breathe and heal.
Wondering what you should be doing instead?
Try not to leave nail polish on your nails for longer than five days or so. Since this is how long it usually takes before nail polishes begin to lose their vibrancy, this should not be too difficult. After five days, remove your nail polish (with a gentle nail polish remover, of course!) and give your nails a couple of days to recover before applying any more.
Wondering if artificial nails would be better?
If you suffer from brittle nails, definitely not. These will only make the brittleness so much worse, so wait until your nails have properly healed and strengthened before giving artificial nails a go.
As important as it is to use a hand or cuticle cream to keep your nails and skin moisturized, you should also be ensuring that your nails are moisturized from within as well.
By keeping your body properly hydrated.
Make sure that you are drinking enough water throughout the day, as a hydrated body means hydrated nails.
Around eight glasses a day.
If you are searching for something a little more flavorful, give herbal teas or fruit-infused waters a try.
Your nails come into contact with so many different surfaces each day, from the screen of your phone to your computer keyboard to everything you hold.
Keeping your nails short will help to prevent them from catching on things , which will save them from cracking and chipping.
Avoid using your nails as much as possible when it comes to your daily activities. Try to use the pads of your fingers instead.
As soon as you notice that your nails may be taking on more of a brittle quality, it is time to do something about this. Begin by identifying the cause of your brittle nails, so that you can work to rectify that, while also following all of the other above steps when it comes to keeping your nails strong and healthy.

FUN FACTS Beyond
If ASEAN Wins Bid to Host World Cup 2034, Which Countries in the Region could represent ASEAN?
Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam and Brunei Darussalam are the 10 countries which make up the ASEAN — a region well known for its passionate football fans who flock the stadiums in thousands for a game of football (Timor-Leste and Australia are also part of the ASEAN Football Federation, but they are not members of the intergovernmental organisation which has mooted the idea to bid).
But with Asia only having 4 qualification slots (plus 0.5 via an inter-confederation play-off) until the 2022 World Cup and 8 starting 2026 World Cup when the tournament will be expanded to 48 teams, chances are unlikely that all 10 nations from ASEAN will qualify automatically if there is a successful bid.
As the 2002 World Cup was the first to be hosted by more than one nation (Japan and Korea Republic) and the 2026 edition is all set to become the first to have more than two hosts, it is safe to say we will be entering uncharted territories when it comes to the topic of automatic qualification spots.
But, even then, which of the 10 nations from Southeast Asia have realistic chances of qualifying for the 2034 World Cup in ASEAN and how can they do it? Let's take a look!
Direct entry via World Cup Qualifiers
No ASEAN nation has qualified for the World Cup via qualifiers so far — the exception being Indonesia who before their independence (known as the Dutch East Indies) automatically qualified for the 1938 World Cup in France as the only team from Asia. But that is not to say we might not have ASEAN nations fighting the best of Asia for a spot in the World Cup in a decade's time.

The only constant is change . #fifaranking2019
Sebuah kiriman dibagikan oleh Good News From Southeast Asia (@seasia.co) pada 15 Jul 2019 jam 8:55 PDT
This is where the expanded 48-team World Cup could come in handy for ASEAN as Asia will now get eight qualification slots for the world championship (still only amounting to 17 per cent representation of the 46 member nations in the Asian Football Confederation) and there is no reason why one or even two ASEAN nations can sneak in via the qualifiers for 2034.
Vietnam and Thailand seem to the be the contenders to do this with Vietnam currently among the Top 15 sides in Asia while Thailand are 20th in the continent in the latest FIFA World Rankings. Vietnam are the regional champions winning the AFF Suzuki Cup 2018 and also reached the last-eight of the AFC Asian Cup 2019 proving their credentials to compete against the elites of Asian football.
Meanwhile, Thailand's performances might have dipped in the recent times, but they are traditional powerhouses of the ASEAN and have the most competitive domestic league in the region. They also reached the Round of 16 of the Asian Cup earlier this year only to be knocked out by Asian giants China PR.
Automatic qualification as host nation(s)
It is still very early days when it comes to the bidding process for the 2034 World Cup. There is a small progress recently.
But one thing that we know is Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia and Cambodia are the nations which currently have stadiums that can meet the FIFA requirements for hosting the World Cup while Myanmar's Thuwunna Stadium in Yangon could also be included if it is renovated in time to meet the standards set by the world body.
That makes it seven ASEAN nations who are eligible to host the 2034 World Cup while Philippines, Laos and Brunei might have to settle for other roles like acting as training bases for the participating nations as their sporting infrastructure is lacking at the moment. But it seems extremely unrealistic of FIFA to allocate even seven spots in the World Cup for hosts.
US, Mexico and Canada are holding out for three spots as they co-host the 2026 World Cup (something yet to be resolved by FIFA) and it is likely that the ASEAN also gets three to four spots as hosts of the quadrennial showpiece which will ensure that there is at least three (or four) Southeast Asian nations at the World Cup and keep the local support at fever pitch.
Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam qualified as hosts when the four ASEAN nations co-hosted the AFC Asian Cup in 2007 and the pick could go to these four nations once again to automatically qualify as hosts at the 2034 World Cup. However, if one or two of these nations (Vietnam or Thailand most likely, as mentioned earlier) qualify by virtue of their performances in the World Cup Qualifiers, they could cede their automatic spot to one of their neighbours outside of the list.
Qualification via a play-off or 2033 AFF Cup
The 46 of the 48 slots at the 2026 World Cup will be divided among the six confederations — AFC, CAF, CONCACAF, CONMEBOL, OFC and UEFA. However, two remaining places is set to be decided by a six-team play-off tournament which is to take place in the World Cup host nation before the tournament proper.
This tournament is originally set to feature one team from the five confederations (UEFA excluded) and an additional team from the host confederation. However, ASEAN can negotiate with FIFA to allocate the two slots for the host nations or in the worst case scenario, include some of the ASEAN nations in the six-team play-off tournament to improve their chances of making it to the World Cup.
Another alternative could be to make the 2033 AFF Championship, the biennial tournament held among the Southeast Asian nations, a qualifying event for the World Cup itself with the two slots going to the teams making it to the final of the regional showpiece. The teams which have qualified via other means (as hosts or via qualifiers) could be excluded from the competition.
To summarise, with the methods mentioned above, ASEAN could optimistically have anywhere between three to five host nations playing at the World Cup in 2034. But to propound is one thing and to put things into action is something else. All these plans will require the agreement of several stakeholders of the world game and months and years on discussion tables to realise them.

Creating a concrete box lamp is a great concrete décor starter project. The smaller scale makes the project easily accessible, while the design allows for the piece to still provide function.
Use scissors or a box cutter to open the carton and trim the edges.
Place the plastic bottle inside of the milk carton and drill through both.
Screw the bolt through the carton and plastic bottle, and fasten the nut on the other side.
Seal the holes and bolt with caulk.
Mix the concrete and pour it into the mold. Use a spoon or stick to push the concrete down into all of the corners.
Vibrate the mold to release any air bubbles trapped in the concrete.
Allow the concrete to cure for 48 hours.
After the concrete has cured, unwrap the mold and unscrew the bolt.
Drill holes of various sizes in the concrete.
QUIKTIP: Try to leave at least 3/4" between the holes to keep the lamp from breaking.
Cut the socket end of the wire, and thread the cut end through the bolt hole. Strip the wires and twist them together. Then, cover the exposed metal with electrical tape or wire nuts.
