ANCIENT EGYPTIAN FOUNDATION TRANSLATION SERIES
'Cleopatra's Needle' is the name popularly given to the Egyptian obelisk standing beside the River Thames in London, on the Victoria Embankment. (The same name is often given to the Egyptian obelisk in Central Park in New York, and sometimes even to the Egyptian obelisk in the Place de la Concorde in Paris.) The London Cleopatra's Needle is one of a pair with the New York one. They both once stood at Heliopolis in Egypt, where they were erected by the Pharaoh Thutmose III circa 1450 BC. The London one was given to the British Government in 1819 by Mohammed Ali, who was then the ruler of Egypt. It took a long time for it to reach London, where it was at last erected in 1878. Naturally, the erection of the obelisk in London caused a considerable stir amongst the Victorian inhabitants of London, and it became a popular sight for everyone to visit. Such was the enthusiasm for this new monument that miniature models of the obelisk were made for sale to the public, and a broadsheet was commercially printed for public sale as well. The Foundation has been fortunate to acquire a perfectly preserved specimen of this bit of ephemera, and has scanned it for reproduction on the website as a PDF download. It is not known whether any other copies of this broadsheet survive. The broadsheet contains full translations of the hieroglyphic texts on the pyramidion and shaft of the obelisk, prepared in order to the curiosity of Londoners as to what the monument had to say in its inscriptions. The translations were done by the Egyptologist Samuel Birch (1813-1885), Keeper of Oriental Antiquities of the British Museum. This broadsheet must thus have been printed sometime between 1878 and 1885, probably in 1878 or 1879.

QCC's Mentoring Program Still Going Strong
Quinsigamond Community College mentee Bobby Kapel and mentor Kevin Campbell.
Mentors and mentees in QCC's Mentoring program often find more than a collaborative, working relationship, they find a friendship.This was the case with Quinsigamond Community College recent graduate Bobby Kapel and retired military professional Kevin Campbell. The duo are a part of QCC's Mentoring program and while the two are generations apart, from different countries, cultural backgrounds and career fields, they share a deep admiration and affinity for one another.
Mr. Campbell is a QCC alumnus (1973) who was one QCC's first mentors. He said he learned of the program after reading about the need for mentors and then meeting with QCC's President Dr. Luis Pedraja.
"I wanted to give something back," he said.
Mr. Kapel emigrated from Liberia in 2012, living first in Pennsylvania before moving to Worcester in 2016 and working in the human services field. In 2017, he came to QCC to realize a dream of furthering his education and bettering his future. In his homeland of West Africa, he taught high school for a couple of years and saw first-hand the need for support and guidance from mentors. Yet with a war going on, parents and mentors were scarce. When Mr. Kapel came to QCC, he saw the College's mentoring program as a pathway to help him get where he wanted to be in life.
"I saw this as a big opportunity and way to keep on track," he said, adding that the school he attended in Pennsylvania before coming to QCC did not offer a mentoring program. "I never had a mentor. I found a whole lot of good things at QCC that I never had at my other school and I'm very thankful."
Both mentor and mentee said it has been a fulfilling and advantageous partnership based on mutual respect. They acknowledge the importance of committing to the partnership and following through with things. On the first day the two met, Mr. Campbell said he knew it would be a fruitful union.
The key thing on day one, I could see in Bobby that he was committed in what he was doing, committed to his studies. I could tell right away how serious he was about his education and achieving his goals," he said. "I was committed to mentoring therefore we both ended up committing to this. You must be fully committed to this or there is no value."
The two men have consistently met throughout the year, transitioning to calls and zoom meetings during the pandemic, and Mr. Kapel said the advice he has gotten from Mr. Campbell has been invaluable.
"We are from different places, backgrounds but I could talk to Kevin and know where he was coming from. Everything he told me and the advice he gave me worked for me," he said.
According to QCC Mentoring Director Gabriel Santner, QCC's mentoring program has been a huge success and one in which both mentees and mentors gain innumerable benefits. This year alone there have been 135 successful matches.
"It's a great way to help young people achieve their goals, give feedback, learn the struggles they face and it makes you a better person," Mr. Campbell said.
In May, Mr. Kapel graduated from QCC and in the fall, he will be heading to Assumption College. He said his mentoring experience has been such a positive one that he hopes to become a mentor and be a valued resource for others, the way Mr. Campbell has been to him.
"What goes around comes around and I would love to do this (be a mentor) for others," he said.
Mr Santner said one of the biggest takeaways from the program is witnessing and being inspired by the connections that are made.
"So many of our mentees and mentors have been able to open up with each other, and build great relationships. I think mentors gain just as much as mentees from the program, through the bond mentors build and through the insight they gain into the lived experiences of our mentees," he said.
Currently QCC Mentoring is looking for an Americorp Ambassador of Mentoring to assist in growing the College's program. The position will run from August 2020 – June 2021. For more information on the position, email Mr. Santner at gsantner [at] qcc.mass.edu .

Now that the wedding and honeymoon are over, it is time to write your thank you cards. While it seems like a lot of work, it is proper manners.
Just as your guests wondered how to write wedding wishes, you might be confused about how to properly construct your thank you cards for your wedding gifts. One of the best pieces advice we can offer is to start writing your thank-you notes as a start to receive wedding gifts. This way you won't feel overwhelmed.
We have gathered some advice from wedding experts on the best wedding thank you cards wording. This can help the process go smoothly and quickly.
Thank you card writing is something that will never go out of style. People like it that you remembered to thank them for their gift, or even that they shared in your special day. Remember, some of your guests traveled great distances and made sacrifices to attend your wedding. A wedding thank you card is a great way to express your appreciation for the time, thought and effort they put into your wedding gift.
Those who hosted your wedding guests.
If you need advice on how to address your thank you notes, refer to our article on How To Address An Invitation.
You should send out thank you cards for those gifts received prior to your wedding within two weeks after you have received the gift. For those gifts, you get at your wedding, or after, the proper time frame is within three months. This way you will not have to worry about what to say at the wedding thank you notes on your honeymoon. You can relax and enjoy your honeymoon. When you return home, you can take the time to focus on your thank you notes for your wedding gifts.
Are you unsure how to write a thank you note? We have some tips to help you compose your thank you notes.
First of all, you should make sure that you have enough thank you notes on hand. You don't want to run out and therefore have to exclude anyone. Also, make sure you have enough stamps as well. And while it seems like common sense, don't forget to mail them as soon as you can after you write them. Many couples will finish their thank you notes and set them aside to drop in the post and then forget to mail them.
It is also a good idea to keep a list as you write each card. This way you will be sure not to forget anyone. You can find templates online to create a tracking system if you prefer. Or you can do it the old-fashioned way and write a list. Either way, be sure to write down the name of the person who sent the gift, the date it was received and then the item itself. Then check it off after you have completed the thank you note.
You would take the time to handwrite each note. You can purchase blank wedding thank you cards online or at a stationary store. Or if you are artistically inclined, you can make your own. There are plenty of templates online for thank you notes for a wedding or any occasion. Or you could use a graphic design program.
If you send personalized wedding thank you cards, make sure to mention the specific gift and why it is meaningful to you. These will take more time than custom notes, but they will have your personal touch.
Custom thank you notes are a great way to make your wedding thank you notes stand out. You can special order personalized cards on sites such as Esty, Shutterfly or any even some wedding sites.
As opposed to generic wedding-themed thank you notes, you can purchase on special stationery. You can choose your own paper and have your names and the date of your wedding engraved or embossed on the thank you note. You can order them in bulk at a discounted rate.
With custom bridal thank you cards you would compose a message that would appear on the body of the card. This way, all you would need to do is address and sign the card. You could also hand-write a line or two to make it more personal. As well, you could include wedding day quotes to make it more meaningful.
Flat cards are those that are made on card stock. As opposed to a folded thank you card, they will not be creased or bent when sent. You would use this type of thank you card for custom or even photo cards. These can also be ordered on sites such as Shutterfly or Etsy.
If you want to keep it short and sweet, you can write a simple wedding thank you cards. This is especially helpful if you have to write numerous thank you notes. A few short sentences will do, but always make sure to mention the person by name as well as the gift.
This is another great way to personalize your wedding thank you cards. You can include a photo of your engagement, wedding or even your honeymoon, although wedding photos are the preferred choice.
We hope you have gathered some helpful advice from our advice on wedding thank you cards wording. Now you won't feel as anxious when it comes to your thank you notes for your wedding and you can relax!

UK Museum to Return Precious Artefacts to Uganda
by CHIMPREPORTS.COM
in CHIMP REPORTS
A United Kingdom museum is set to return to Uganda priceless artefacts that were stolen during the colonisation of Africa.
The world's leading museums, including the British Museum and the National Museum of African Art, hold hundreds of thousands of artefacts taken from former colonies in Africa, Asia, and beyond.
University of Michigan Professor Derek Peterson (History, Afroamerican & African Studies) will serve as principal investigator for "Repositioning the Uganda Museum," working with a team of colleagues to repatriate objects from the University of Cambridge Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology (MAA) to the Uganda Museum in Kampala.
The project was recently awarded a $100,000 grant from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.
The project team will select a set of artefacts from the Cambridge museum, repatriate them to Uganda, conduct research on their history and provenance, and exhibit them in the Uganda Museum, East Africa's oldest museum.
Makerere University graduate students will assist with research. The project is one small step in the larger campaign to undo the legacy of collecting in the colonial era.
"We want to put these objects back into the hands of people who made them meaningful," said Peterson.
"We want them to live again, not only as museum pieces but as part of Uganda's public culture."
The New African recently reported that the return of African icons, both human and cultural, looted during the periods of slavery, empire and colonialism, was essential for Africa to revisit and re-engage with these important aspects of African history, ideas, personalities and aesthetics.
Estimates suggest that 80-90% of sub-Saharan Africa's cultural heritage is currently held outside the continent as a result of conquest, plunder, theft, and colonisation, as well as legitimate trade and exchange.
These objects are of great artistic, cultural, religious, sacred and economic value.
There have been loud calls for their return from the moment they were taken, often in violent encounters.
How it will happen
"Repositioning the Uganda Museum" will repatriate several dozen artefacts, a small subset of the hundreds of thousands of objects taken from Africa in the colonial era. The project's biggest legacy might be establishing a set of recommendations that will guide future repatriation efforts, including research and provenance, exhibition, storage, training, and programming. The idea is to create a sustainable model that other African museums might adopt.
"Uganda is looking forward to this grant, the first of its kind towards restitution," said Rose Mwanja Nkaale, Uganda's commissioner for museums and monuments.

"'Bringing these items back—and attracting those from around the diaspora to see them on the continent—will also help people come to terms with their own collective memory, celebrate their rich histories and identities, and be able to pass this on to future generations."
The project timeline calls for the MAA objects to be relocated to the Uganda Museum by the end of 2022.
In early 2023, the team will begin research and exhibit design, with the exhibit opening later that year.
In 2024 a conference will invite scholars and museum curators from Uganda, surrounding countries, and U-M to reflect on the exhibit and project. Two publications will come from these efforts, an exhibition catalog and an open-access white paper on the project itself.
"These objects have been dislocated both in space and in time," said Peterson. "Colonial-era collectors took them out of Ugandans' hands and made them into specimens of ethnic identity. We want to put them back into the hands of the people who made them meaningful, to open up dialogues about the onward course of families, clans, and professions."
In the late-nineteenth century, British missionary John Roscoe was in the Kingdom of Buganda—part of present-day Uganda— collecting ethnographic objects and operating partly under the direction of the MAA.
At that time, the kingdom was in turmoil, suffering a series of religious wars and increased interference from the Imperial British East Africa Company (Buganda became part of the British Empire in 1900).
It was a time of massive political and social transformation. As Protestant Christians gained power, non-Christian practitioners of the old religion were eager to shed any symbol of their prior beliefs. In other words, Roscoe built his collection at a time when the instruments of the old way of life were dramatically devalued.
This was common practice for European empires, who extracted not only raw materials but also art, cultural artifacts, and religious objects from their colonies. At best it was an uneven transaction; at worst, it was outright theft.
The majority of the artifacts Roscoe collected are held in storage in Cambridge. Most have not been displayed. In 1961, the MAA returned a set of sacred artifacts to the Uganda Museum.
"That repatriation was a success—in the sense that the heritage has been on public display in Kampala ever since," said Professor Nicholas Thomas, MAA director. "But we have been far too slow in following up that initiative. The Mellon Foundation's support will empower fresh engagement with the Uganda Museum, and will involve both rich academic dialogue, and the return of heritage of exceptional significance."
The world's leading museums, including the British Museum and the National Museum of African Art, hold hundreds of thousands of artifacts taken from former colonies in Africa, Asia, and beyond. Despite increasing advocacy from activists, museum professionals, and scholars in their country of origin, only a small percentage has been repatriated. The MAA, like many museums, is adopting a new approach.
"This carefully conceived program will provide a model for similar initiatives elsewhere in Africa, and indeed elsewhere in the World," said Thomas.
The repatriation of objects from Europe and the United States to African countries will take time and money, especially if the work is both deliberate and collaborative. "Repositioning the Uganda Museum" could be the blueprint for a much wider effort.
"This is a risky project, and there's a lot at stake," said Peterson. "The Cambridge curators are giving up part of the collection they have built. The Ugandan curators are trying to find a different framework with which to display ethnographic objects. I'm very pleased to be able to work with both institutions in making new kinds of museums actionable."

U&i Prime Sonic 1 and Prime Sonic 3 budget Bluetooth speakers launched


MP Jody Wilson-Raybould speaks to constituents in her riding of Vancouver Granville in Vancouver on March 14, 2019.
Former attorney-general Jody Wilson-Raybould says she plans to provide further evidence to a parliamentary committee about high-level political interference in the criminal prosecution of SNC-Lavalin Group Inc.
The move comes after the Liberal majority on the House of Commons justice committee closed down an inquiry into the SNC-Lavalin affair on Tuesday, preventing Ms. Wilson-Raybould from testifying again in response to other witnesses.
Opposition MPs protested the shutdown of the hearings by forcing 31 hours of marathon voting on spending estimates that ended early Friday morning. They vow to keep the spotlight on the controversy until Ms. Wilson-Raybould is able to testify again.
On Friday, Ms. Wilson-Raybould wrote to the chair of the justice committee, Montreal Liberal MP Anthony Housefather, saying she has "relevant facts and evidence" that back up her previous testimony about attempts by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and top aides to help SNC-Lavalin avoid a criminal trial on fraud and bribery charges relating to its business dealings in Libya.
In testimony last month, Ms. Wilson-Raybould said she faced "consistent and sustained" pressure to override federal prosecutors and negotiate a deferred prosecution agreement with SNC-Lavalin. Such an agreement would allow the company to accept responsibility for wrongdoing and pay a fine without having to go to trial.
In her letter, Ms. Wilson-Raybould said she intends to submit evidence that had been asked of her by justice committee members when she testified on Feb. 27 and to respond to witnesses who appeared after her. Her evidence will be made public, Mr. Housefather told members of the committee on Friday.
Mr. Trudeau's former principal secretary, Gerald Butts, and Michael Wernick, the clerk of the privy council, testified on March 6 that Ms. Wilson-Raybould was not subjected to "inappropriate pressure" and said she had mischaracterized some of the conversations.
Ms. Wilson-Raybould indicated she has documented evidence that will support her version of what transpired between September and December, 2018, when she was attorney-general and justice minister.
However, Ms. Wilson-Raybould said she is still prevented from talking about the period of time from when she was shuffled out of justice in early January to her resignation from cabinet in mid-February.
The B.C. Liberal MP has asked the Prime Minister to give her another waiver from solicitor-client privilege and cabinet confidentiality to talk about conversations with Mr. Trudeau that led to her resignation from cabinet.
But Mr. Trudeau told reporters in Thunder Bay on Friday that Ms. Wilson-Raybould has already had an opportunity to tell her story during four hours of testimony before the justice committee last month.
Her testimony, however, covered only her time as attorney-general and not the period after she was shuffled to veterans affairs. She believes the demotion was related to the SNC-Lavalin prosecution.
Opposition MPs accused Mr. Trudeau of a cover-up to prevent Canadians from knowing about what led Ms. Wilson-Raybould and former Treasury Board President Jane Philpott to resign from cabinet.
"If nothing wrong took place, then why don't we waive privilege on the whole issue and let those who have something to say on it speak their minds and share their stories," she told Maclean's magazine.
The issue has dominated Parliament since The Globe and Mail reported on Feb. 7 that the Prime Minister's Office pressured the former attorney-general to negotiate an settlement without trial for SNC-Lavalin.
In the fallout from The Globe report, Ms. Wilson-Raybould, Ms. Philpott and Mr. Butts stepped down. On Monday, Mr. Wernick retired because he had lost the "trust and respect" of the opposition parties over his role in the SNC-Lavalin case.
Liberal MPs are also expected to use their majority on the House ethics committee on Tuesday to block an attempt by Conservative and NDP members to mount an inquiry and have Ms. Wilson-Raybould testify again.
One option open to Ms. Wilson-Raybould is to raise a question of personal privilege to ask the Commons Speaker to allow her to speak freely about what happened after she was demoted to Veterans Affairs and her resignation from cabinet. The move would give her immunity to speak without facing consequences of violating cabinet confidentiality and solicitor-client privilege. However, the Speaker could limit the time to 20 minutes.

Can the Ring of Fire keep its promises to First Nations?
By John Michael McGrath - Published on Jun 11, 2015
The Ring of Fire could be worth millions but will it mean for First Nations in northwestern Ontario?
Neskantaga First Nation has been under a boil water advisory for the past 20 years. Like most reserves in Ontario's northwest, electricity comes from noisy and polluting diesel generators. The community is connected to the rest of the world only part of the year by a winter road that stops being useful the moment the ice starts to thin in spring. When the winter's shipment of diesel fuel runs out, it has to be flown in on float planes at enormous expense.
In short, Neskantaga and other First Nation reserves in Ontario's vast northwest have to live in conditions that nearly everyone in Ontario would find unacceptable. The nearby Ring of Fire mineral deposit, potentially worth $50 billion, is supposed to help change that.
"Unless we really open up the north and provide access to remote First Nation communities, we've really missed the boat," says Ontario's Minister of Northern Development and Mines Mike Gravelle.
A lot of debate around the Ring of Fire revolves around what kind of transportation links to build to get the rich minerals found there to global markets. However, more basic forms of infrastructure are also planned, such as reliable electricity.
Limited electrical power isn't just expensive: it limits all economic options on First Nations reserves, and exacerbates the existing housing shortage. The limited capacity of the existing diesel generators prevents some reserves from allowing new homes to be built.
Wataynikaneyap Power (or "Watay Power" for short) is a coalition of 20 First Nations looking to connect most of the currently diesel-powered reserves to Ontario's electrical grid. They've already completed the environmental approvals for Phase One of the project, which will upgrade an existing transmission line to Pickle Lake – a necessary first step for expanding the power grid. They hope the upgrade will be done by 2018, with the first remote connections completed by 2019.
The transmission lines Watay Power will require may also open up the possibility of new roads, though Margaret Kenequanash, chair of Watay Power, is focused primarily on the fundamentals of electricity transmission. "We're trying not to complicate things – this is complicated enough as it is."
The agency responsible for planning the province's transmission grid, the IESO, declared in 2014 that the cost savings from phasing out the current system of diesel generators are enough on their own to justify connecting most of northwest Ontario's remote reserves. The development of the Ring of Fire, however, would create more demand for electricity in the area, which means the plan would break even for the provincial and federal governments even sooner.
The investment dollars brought by the Ring of Fire could be the impetus for other infrastructure and economic development as well. There is some modest potential for new hydroelectric dams in the northwest, albeit nothing on the scale of the James Bay projects in Quebec. The Ontario Waterpower Association estimates there's more than 200 megawatts of economically viable electricity from rivers around the Ring of Fire.
Also, once the $50 billion wealth of the Ring of Fire is securely connected to global markets, there's broader economic potential in northern Ontario, in what geologists call "greenstone belts" – deposits of rock where precious minerals, particularly gold, can be found. One such belt exists under Timmins and Kirkland Lake. Geologist James Franklin, using data from known deposits in Ontario and Manitoba, estimates the greenstone belts in the northwest may contain $150 billion to $190 billion.
Franklin emphasizes that those numbers are "highly speculative, but reasonable." Further exploration would be needed to prove his back-of-the-envelope calculations.
So a mining boom in the northwest could bring cleaner electricity, new and better roads, and desperately needed jobs and money for First Nations and other residents of the northwest. But expectations need to be tempered by the reality of the mining industry in 2015.
While the Ring of Fire is often compared to the Sudbury mineral deposit, nobody expects the northwest to sprout a new city. Mines, smelters and refineries simply employ far fewer people to produce the same metals they did a century ago, or even 40 years ago. There are about as many people employed in all of Ontario's mining industry today as there were miners in Sudbury alone in the 1970s.
Regardless of the exact amount of economic potential, Kenequanash says broader development in the northwest won't happen without substantial, continuing consultation from mining companies and government over the fate of First Nations in the area.
"If you want to build a project and not bother talking to the First Nations," she says, "your project won't go anywhere."

Welcome! Guidelines for participating in the annual Poetry Workshops at the College English Association (CEA) Annual Conference are posted here.
The poetry of Larry Rubin is a fine resource for us. However, the author is so self-effacing as to be almost invisible; for many years he has functioned as a powerful creative current running beneath the surface of American life. With this book he emerges into full daylight with all his explosive power, his subtlety and originality, and fortunate are those among us who have the intelligent sensibility to connect with him.

Politics, passion and underground protest music
"Put bluntly, Anglo-American popular music…whether it's metal, rap, teen-pop or indie-rock, cannot help but stand for a depressingly conservative set of values" – John Harris
Harris expresses a sentiment many of us feel – in our hearts of hearts, we know that there is something missing in modern music – a politics, a passion, a sense of protest.
The music mainstream is characterised by 'soulless music, artless lyrics, goalless movements and heartless gimmicks' and yet under our feet a revolution brews from the stages of music venues across the country.
This revolution has no base other than music's third world, the underground.
I refer to the underground, as the 'third world' to reflect the Peruvian American rap artist Immortal Technique's observations…that the underground has all the natural resources, the talent, the man power and the passion, but has none of the access to the music markets that remain so manipulated and dominated by the powerful few.
Just like the third world though, the underground also spawns creativity, protest and resistance.
While the mainstream stays eerily quiet, the pulse of popular resistance beats on. Musicians are coming together to articulate what many of us feel but are unable to express. These musicians are uncaring of the marketability of their work.
They offer the discerning listener a raw, passionate and articulate response to the injustices we see and feel.
While traditional structures teach us that the love between two men is immoral the music of the underground gives us the poetry to resist this prejudice.
From The King's Will's 'Love Against Homophobia':
To some people
My love is somewhat alien;
When he comes up, they start subject-changing, and
In some states he's seen as some contagion –
In those zones, he stays subterranean;
Some love my love; they run parades for him:
Liberal citizens lead the way for him:
Same time as some countries embracing him,
Whole faiths and nations seem ashamed of him:
They've tried banning him,
God-damning him,
Toe-tagging him,
Prayed that he stayed in the cabinet,
But my love kicked in the panelling, ran for it –
He's my love! Can't be trapping him in labyrinths! –
Maverick, my love is; he thwarts challenges;
The cleverest geneticists can't fathom him,
Priests can't defeat him with venomous rhetoric;
They'd better quit; my love's too competitive:
He's still here, despite the Taliban, the Vatican,
And rap, ragga in their anger and arrogance,
Who call on my love with lit matches and paraffin –
Despite the fistfights and midnight batterings –
My love's still here and fiercely battling,
In this underground world, lyrics carry the sentiment of a generation growing up surrounded by violence and prejudice that we are unable to articulate a response to.
The underground does not demand protest but offers a fertile space for resistance to grow.
The underground crosses causes, continents and musical genres. Just as under the streets of Harlem you will find the dirty beats of subversive hip-hop, so under the soil of Middle-England you find the subversive chords of new-folk…and no, I'm talking about Mudford and fucking Sons.
Chris T-T for example expresses the concerns of the rural working classes as he takes on The Countryside Alliances' (we'll call them 'the cunts' for short) hypocrisy when he sings:
You loved the fucking poll tax, you propped up Margaret Thatcher
And you didn't give a fuck about Tony Blair
'Til he threw your hobby back at ya
Of course, a world-wide underground does not escape attention. Immortal Technique comments on this in his track 'Open your eyes' when he says, "When they [The Record Companies] need new assets, new artists to prostitute…, when they needed new concepts… they came to the underground"
Often music that pushes moral, social and musical boundaries becomes the pre-fix to new trends – new marketable trends. Subversive characters are marketable – think of John Lydon and his butter adverts.
So how should we, as consumers, respond to artists who rise up from the streets and onto the record company's balance sheets?
Should we walk away from the likes of Frank Turner who sing of liberty and freedom whilst playing at the G4S/ATOS sponsored Olympics? No, of course not.
There is nothing inherent about protest being distinct from populism, and certainly nothing inherent about poverty and protest. Billy Bragg stands as a testimony as someone who has ridden a wave of popularity and prosperity and remained, relatively speaking, true to his values.
When Turner is quoted in The Guardian saying that "Rock n Roll will save us all" and that "anyone can take the stage" – The Guardian 'raises an eyebrow'. For the rest of us it offers a signpost to resistance that surfaces in the mainstream.
When protest music such as Bragg, Turner or even Dylan rise up on to the airwaves and newspaper sheets of the masses, we should be pleased but we should never lose sight of where it came from.
The Underground.
Only in here will you find the raw passion, politics and protest that we are missing in most of our modern music.

This is a great article. The comment above is right though- Frank Turner is a twat. The reason it isn't strange for him to appear at the Olympics is not that protest and populism are distinct, but because he embodies, and believes in, the corporate values expressed in that event. He describes himself as a 'libertarian' and 'right wing', the BNP as 'hard left' and socialism as 'retarded.' He is protesting for ultra conservative ideals- is this really protest?

How ironic is it that the manufactured reality show pop group Girls Aloud had a debut single entitled 'Sound Of The Underground'? Underground, my arse! These fools wouldn't know it if they fell over it.
That's been bothering me for years. 😉
Russell Gowers
Thankfully, there is (and always will be) a "long tail" of good music waiting to be discovered. I think this may even grow: as music becomes ever-cheaper to record, release and promote (vis. the number of smaller artists crowd-sourcing the funding for their new releases) the need for enormous, controlling labels will reduce, and Pop really Will begin to Eat Itself. At the end of the day, it comes down to free choice – those to whom music actually matters will always seek out good stuff. As Brian once said, "you're all individuals!"
And whilst, as you say, some of today's major-label backed releases are vapid nonsense, there's some good stuff out there. For every Black Eyed Peas there is a Frank Ocean; for every two-bit grime or gangsta MC there is a Sway or a Common; for every shitty boyband there is an Enter Shikari. It is still possible to be popular AND authentic.
Frank Turner is still a twat though.


Lower facelift surgery rejuvenates the bottom third of the face by tightening the face's underlying structures that slack with age. The procedure also trims excess skin, smoothing it down to eliminate facial creases and giving a visual lift to the bottom third of the face.
A lower facelift is what often comes to mind when people think of a facelift. Lower facelift eliminates jowls, targets lax skin on the neck and jaw line, addresses deep wrinkles, and raises the corners of the mouth. The "full facelift," in contrast, is actually a combination of a lower facelift, mid facelift, and brow lift (forehead lift). The full facelift rejuvenates the face from forehead to neck, while the lower facelift rejuvenates the lower third of the face.
After the skin incision is made, the skin is separated from the deeper tissues with a scalpel or scissors over the cheeks and neck, the excess skin is then removed and stitched.

To see beautiful manicured hands in a dream means that success and fulfillment of wishes are in store for you. Ugly hands in this case are a symbol of need and disappointment. To see wounded hands signifies that someone will succeed before you do it. If you see blood on your hands, you'll soon move away from the family. To burn your hands means that you will overrate your strength and will not be able to achieve the object. A dream of a hand apart from the body is a sign of loneliness. It will be hard for you to find mutual understanding with other people. To see your hands covered with hair means that you are not destined to strengthen your position in the place that you stay now. If you dream of having excessively large hands, you will have a rapid progress in your business. To see them unnaturally small portends stagnation in business. Dirty hands signify that in reality you will be pursued by envy. Washing your hands in a dream presages an upcoming joyful event or a party. If a woman dreams of admiring her hands, in reality she will deserve sincere respect of a man whom she values a lot. A dream of admiring other people's hands means that she will depend on a man jealous of her. For a young woman, to dream of a man holding her hands heralds obscene offers. If a man kisses her hands, she should beware of gossips. It is a favorable sign, if a woman dreams of building a fire without burning her hands, as it means that she will manage to gain power and public recognition. To see yourself in a dream with your hands bound warns that you run a risk of getting in trouble. However, if you manage to have your hands free, you will be able to bend others to your will.

Q: How can I calculate geometric sequence in LaTeX? I am trying to make my own command to calculate geometric sequence in LaTeX example: 10*4^(n+1)
I've tried couple of things similar to this but non of them seemed to work:
\newcommand{\GeometricSequence} [1] {\the\numexpr 10*4^(#1+1) \relax \\}

So if type command (shown below) it should "print" 3360.
\GeometricSequence {3}

A: Using the LaTeX3 FPU we could do for example
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{xparse,expl3}
\ExplSyntaxOn
\NewExpandableDocumentCommand{\GeometricSequence}{m}{%
  \fp_eval:n { 0 \int_step_function:nnnN {1} {1} {#1} \__ft_geomseq:n }
}
\cs_new:Npn \__ft_geomseq:n #1
  { + 10*4^(#1 + 1) }
\ExplSyntaxOff
\begin{document}

\GeometricSequence{3}

\end{document}

An alternative approach using integer mathematics only and allowing arbitrary output size (index limit here is that of TeX):
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{expl3,bigintcalc}
\ExplSyntaxOn
\cs_new_eq:NN \intstep \int_step_function:nnnN
\ExplSyntaxOff
\newcommand*{\GeometricSequence}[1]{%
    \intstep{1}{1}{#1}\GeometricSequenceAux\GeometricSequenceEnd{0}%
}
\newcommand*{\GeometricSequenceAux}[1]{}
\def\GeometricSequenceAux#1#2\GeometricSequenceEnd#3{%
  #2%
  \GeometricSequenceEnd
  {%
    \bigintcalcAdd{#3}
      {\bigintcalcMul{10}{\bigintcalcPow{4}{\bigintcalcAdd{1}{#1}}}}%
  }%
}
\newcommand*\GeometricSequenceEnd[1]{#1}
\begin{document}
\GeometricSequence{3}

\end{document}

A: Up to 24 because of floating point precision limitation.

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{tikz,xfp}

\newcommand{\GeometricSequence}[1]{%
\def\Tot{0}%
\def\Som{%
$g(#1)=\foreach \n in {1,...,#1}
    {\xdef\Tot{\Tot+\fpeval{10*4^(\n+1)}}%
     \ifnum\n>1+\fi
     10\times4^{\fpeval{\n+1}}}=\fpeval{\Tot}$}%
    \Som
}

\pagestyle{empty}
\begin{document}

\GeometricSequence{12}

\end{document}

A: Here's a LuaLaTeX-based solution. It sets up two LaTeX user macros: \GeoSeq{p}, to calculate the value of the function for a given integer p, and \GeoTable{n}, to create the contents of a tabular environment for the first n integers.

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{luacode} % for 'luacode' environment
\begin{luacode}
function GeoSeq ( p )
   local Total = 0
   for i = 1 , p do
      Total = Total + 4^(1+i)
   end
   return ( 10 * Total )
end
function GeoTable ( n )
   for i = 1 , n do
      tex.sprint ( i .. "&" .. GeoSeq(i) .. "\\\\" )
   end
end
\end{luacode}

\newcommand\GeoSeq[1]{\directlua{tex.sprint(GeoSeq(#1))}}
\newcommand\GeoTable[1]{\directlua{GeoTable(#1)}}

\begin{document}
\GeoSeq{3} \qquad
\begin{tabular}[t]{@{}lr@{}}
   \GeoTable{10}  % print 10 rows
\end{tabular}
\end{document}

A: The eagerly awaited unavoidable necessary xint solution.
\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\usepackage{upquote}
\usepackage{xintexpr}

\xintdefiifunc g(N) := 10 * `+`(4^[1+1..1+N]);

\xintNewFunction{G}[1]{10 * add(4^(1+n), n=1..#1)}

\begin{document}
\begin{verbatim}
\xintdefiifunc g(N) := 10 * `+`(4^[1+1..1+N]);
\end{verbatim}
\[g(12) = \sum_{n=1}^{12}10\cdot 4^{1+n} = \xinttheiiexpr g(12)\relax\]
For a one-shot calculation there is a more agreeable syntax than the one we
used above. Of course it gives the same
result.
\begin{verbatim}
\xinttheiiexpr add(10*4^(1+n), n=1..12)\relax
\end{verbatim}
\[g(12) = \sum_{n=1}^{12}10\cdot 4^{1+n} =
          \xinttheiiexpr add(10*4^(1+n), n=1..12)\relax\]
It is possible to abstract this syntax into a macro-like function definition:
\begin{verbatim}
\xintNewFunction{G}[1]{10 * add(4^(1+n), n=1..#1)}
\end{verbatim}
It gives again same result
\[g(12) = \sum_{n=1}^{12}10\cdot 4^{1+n} = \xinttheiiexpr G(12)\relax\] But
the \verb|G| does again all the needed parsing which has already been encoded
into the faster \verb|g| function. The problem is that we can't currently use
\verb|a..b| syntax in \verb|\xintdefiifunc| definitions when \texttt{a} or
\texttt{b} are among the function parameters. We can always use
\verb|\xintNewFunction| as shown above.
\thispagestyle{empty}
\end{document}

Still one more syntax:
$g(120) = \xinttheiiexpr 10 * `+`(rseq(16; 4*@, i=2..120))\relax$

This could be faster than computing all powers from scratch as it proceeds iteratively... while we are at it we would also use the exact mathematical expression for the sum, of course this is still faster.

We don't use any additional EBS volumes, so I only need to enable encryption on the root EBS volume on each EMR node. (Or so I thought)
The steps I took to accomplished this (per the instructions in AWS documentation):

*

*Copy the base AMI that is used by AWS EMR (it is the same image for master+core nodes)

*Enable EBS encryption on my copy (By checking the box "Encrypt target EBS snapshots")

*Re-provision the EMR cluster using my new custom AMI: CustomAmiId: {myNewAmiId}
It succeeded. However, when I analyze any of my nodes (master or core nodes), I see two EBS volumes. One is encrypted, one is not:
There are 3 entries under EC2 block devices:

*

*/dev/xvda (Root device) (Encrypted)

*/dev/xvda (Block device) (Encrypted) (This is just the same volume as #1)

*/dev/sdb (Block device) (Not encrypted) -- What is this volume?

I want to know: What is this EBS volume that is mapped to /dev/sdb? And how can I encrypt it?
Details:

*

*EMR version: 5.7.0

*EC2 hardware: c4.8xlarge

Advantages and Disadvantages of Building a Waste Management Facility
By Angela Ogunjimi

Examples of Companies' Wellness Programs
Major Issues in Facility Management
Waste management can involve the collection, processing and disposal of hazardous and non-hazardous materials from residential, commercial, construction, medical and industrial users. It can also involve facilities to recover energy and value from waste materials, also known as recycling. Getting into the waste management business requires a sizable investment in equipment, people, training and maintaining regulations. However, unlike many industries, waste management is poised for significant growth in revenues over the next several years as of 2011.
It's Lucrative
"Waste Market Overview & Outlook 2009," a report by the "Waste Business Journal," estimated waste management industry revenues would top $60 billion by 2013. The catch is that the industry has a few titans, who command the lion's share of those revenues. However, many companies are investing more heavily into various aspects of waste management, including recycling and new disposal technology.
Recession-Resistant
People always generate trash. So there will always be a need to collect it and dispose of it. The Waste Business Journal report said that people and companies are generating less waste, generally declining in tandem with the economy. However, the profitability of waste management facilities has been somewhat resistant to the ebbs and flows of the economy. In addition to constant demand, many companies have raised prices to offset the decline in waste volume. In addition, more facilities are consolidating.
Dealing with waste is dangerous. It poses hazards to employees and the residents near your facilities, which in turn creates a liability risk to the company. Your employees face numerous health threats, especially from skin contact through cuts and abrasions, accidental injections from sharp objects, hand-to-mouth contact -- such as when employees eat after handling waste -- inhaling dangerous fumes, dealing with feces, handling dead animals, rodent infestations and contact with hazardous chemicals. From these risks arise the potential for skin disease, bacterial infections and viruses and tetanus. The investment in safety of your employees, therefore, would be substantial. To nearby residents and businesses, some of the major risks of landfills include groundwater contamination and reduced air quality.
Tightly Regulated
Because of the inherent dangers, waste management facilities face many regulations. Laws and rules from the federal, state, local and even tribal governments create a steep bureaucratic mountain to climb, as well as significant outlay to ensure your facility is up to code. Landfills have rules about where they can be located, how they operate, what kind of companies they can contract with, how they can be designed and what kinds of waste can be accepted. In addition, facilities must monitor groundwater and air quality and be prepared to take corrective actions. Moreover, should the facility ever close, a number of regulations exists to cover post-closure care.

История
15 июня 1905 года в Уфе была организована первоначальная подготовка нижних полицейских чинов.

12 января 1913 года губернатором Уфимской губернии, П. П. Башиловым, было утверждено «Положение о школе урядников полицейской стражи в городе Уфе».

На базе Уфимской воспитательно-трудовой колонии имени А. М. Матросова, приказом МВД СССР от 22 сентября 1970 года, была создана Уфимская средняя специальная школа подготовки начальствующего состава МВД СССР.

На основании постановления Совета Министров СССР за № 1107 от 1 октября 1987 года и приказа МВД СССР за № 014 от 12 января 1988 года преобразована в Уфимскую высшую школу МВД РФ.

В соответствии с постановлением Правительства Российской Федерации за № 589 от 17 мая 1996 года высшая школа была реорганизована в юридический институт и находится в непосредственном подчинении Департамента кадрового обеспечения МВД России.

С 1998 года издаётся научно-практический журнал «Вестник Уфимского юридического института МВД России», в котором публикуются материалы по актуальным проблемам юридической науки и практики.

Структура института
В юридическом институте работают более 200 преподавателей, в их числе 24 доктора и 122 кандидата наук (21 профессор и 52 доцента).

If you can't find time to visit the gym on a daily basis, exercising at home will provide the same results. Tabata is one of the most effective exercise programs, which lasts few minutes and it is high-intensity workout. It is great for busy mothers as it lasts for four minutes and provides you with great effects.
It includes sprint for twenty seconds, a pause of ten seconds and this should be repeated for four minutes.
This program is developed by Dr. I. Tabata from Japan, which helps you burn a lot of calories even it looks simple. He and his team analyzed 2 groups of athletes for six weeks. One of them did medium-intensity workout for longer period of time and the other group did high-intensity workout for shorter period of time. They discovered that those from the first group increased the aerobic capacity by 9.5 percent and the anaerobic capacity by zero percent. The other group increased the aerobic capacity by 14percent and the anaerobic capacity by 28percent.

Tibetan stringer Thupten Gelek reported that the Dalai Lama reiterated his commitment to seeking a genuine autonomy for Tibet during his first day of visit in Rome. The Tibetan leader added that his Middle Way Approach is based on the statement of the late Deng Xiaoping who stated that except for the independence of Tibet all other questions could be discussed and resolved. The Dalai Lama was responding to questions by a reporter to recent remarks by the Chinese Prime Minister Wen Jiabao on preconditions for negotiations on the issue of Tibet. The Tibetan leader is scheduled to meet the Pope tomorrow.


For fans of Zynga, today continues to be a pretty great day. Amid the hooplah of their "Unleashed" press event, the social gaming big dog has announced new partnerships, promised new games, and revealed new entries in their classic series. Making sure not to leave their existing players in the dust, however, the house that Pincus built went on to announce some new features for things you might be playing right now.
First up? 90-second head-to-head multiplayer of up to four people in the company's answer to Bubble Witch Saga, Bubble Safari. Though the addition might not seem worth its own news post, today's gaming focus on asynchronous play makes this live competition something worth checking out. Which you can do, if you're a player of Bubble Safari! Meanwhile, this great step-by-step tutorial on our partner Games.com is very much worth a look if you're at a loss for where to start.
Next get to some love was Zynga Seattle's Ruby Blast, which will take its Bejeweled–inspired gameplay from the browser to your phones and tablets "this year" (no date was given). In true Zynga style, players will be able to sync with Facebook, channel their inner-gem blaster, and track their high score across multiple platforms.
So – for those of you on the fence – do these new additions to current Zynga titles make you feel like jumping in? And for those already addicted, how many will try Bubble Safari's multiplayer right away?

How a Facebook Livestream Series Empowered Me to Become a Better Entrepreneur by @HeidiLynneCo
By Melissa Stewart October 30, 2018 1 on How a Facebook Livestream Series Empowered Me to Become a Better Entrepreneur by @HeidiLynneCo
by Heidi Lynne Kurter
19 months ago, I quit my corporate Human Resources job in Boston to travel Asia and start my own business. I've always lived life a bit impulsively and craved massive challenge, so while this seemed impossible, it wasn't out of character for me. Last month, after wrapping up my tour of Asia, I traveled back to one of my favorite European cities, Berlin, to bring calm to the chaos and establish some roots for my business.
The journey of entrepreneurship forced me to do a lot of self reflection, deconstruct and rebuild habits and routines, and face the inner demons that became a part of my identity from a lifetime of suppression. As women, we are amazing multi-taskers with the determination to exceed our own expectations in everything we put our minds to.
As an ode to the amazing women entrepreneurs who are pursuing their dreams of entrepreneurship, I launched a live-stream interview series in my Facebook group The Global B.L.E.N.D. interviewing women entrepreneurs and their journey exposing the transparent and raw truths of the struggles and challenges they've faced while building and scaling their business.
This series has been incredibly eye-opening for not only myself, but the members of the group. It's easy to fall into comparison syndrome and lose motivation because we feel inferior to those who rose to success almost instantaneously since declaring their decision to start a business. My goal was to bring to light the reality of the powerhouse women we admire and respect and level the playing field in a way that connects us to support and empower one another.
Here are the things I learned that helped me to enjoy the global entrepreneur life and become successful in my life and business:
-> Be Selfish with Your Time
Everyone has their own definition of self-care, but the end result still remains the same. It's the maintenance of your physical, mental and well-being by treating yourself kindly. This can come in the form of reading, making time with girlfriends, scheduling a spa appointment or any feel good activity that nurtures your soul and brings life back to you again.
-> Make a Date with Yourself Daily
It's easy to get caught up in the distractions that come with living a life of travel. We cram so much into our days that we gloss over our emotions and needs. I'm a professional at jam-packing my days so I get a generous mix of the local experience and business tasks. The quickest way to burnout is by neglecting yourself. Make sure to schedule daily check-ins with yourself even if it's setting aside a half hour to grab some tea and people watch at a local cafe.
-> Dial into What Feels Right
As a former corporate robot, I lived a life of burnout. It became the new normal. If I wasn't feeling stretched thin, stressed out or on the verge of breaking, I thought I wasn't doing enough. By listening to my body, I learned when stress becomes too much my sleep is the first to be impacted. Start to tune into your body and know when it's time to take a break. Take breaks often and be mindful of when your sleep starts to fall short.
-> Take it Down a Notch
While others plan for the upcoming year, I get attached to a vision six years in the future. I became so future focused that I couldn't take in the now. Taking the time to focus and appreciate the now has allowed me to slow down and take advantage of every second. Slow down, breathe and take the time to appreciate the here and now. It's the most simple acts that bring us back to reality and allow us to be grateful for where we are and the progress we've made.

Great advice. I see a lot of people having burnouts. Your advice to book some time with yourself is a good one. More people need to hear that and take it down a notch as you say. I make it a daily routine to watch a comedy each day, 1 episode at least. I always laugh at them and it calms me. No matter how many times I watch the same episodes. I have the full set of Frasier, Seinfeld, King of Queens and Everyone loves Raymond.

CHICAGO – "Murder On The Orient Express" is a movie that is never quite as interesting as the main character's mustache. Kenneth Branagh directs and stars as Agatha Christie's most famous detective, Hercule Poirot. While it is a departure from the source novel, Branagh sports silver streak facial hair of audacious eccentricity.

Wish I Was Here
CHICAGO – Writer, director and lead actor Zach Braff has put it on the line for his latest feature, "Wish I Was Here." He infamously used a crowd funding Kickstarter campaign to maintain creative control of the film, but he needn't have bothered. The movie result is a sappy, high concept emotional manipulator with no basis in authenticity, and that might be the best thing that can be said about it.

Listen to The Turtles' 'Happy Together' from The Boys, Season 2, Episode 6
That classic and absolutely iconic song from The Turtles 'Happy Together' showed up on the new episode of The Boys last night — The Boys, Season 2, Episode 6, "The Bloody Doors Off".
Of course, if you loved the song before, you probably won't like it as much once you heard it on The Boys. Not when you watched Homelander and Stormfront kill a bank robber and then have sex next to his body.
I'm just sayin'.
The Turtles' 'Happy Together' was originally released on the psychedelic pop band's third studio album of the same name.
Released in early 1967, the track immediately kicked The Beatles' 'Penny Lane' out of the top spot on the singles charts in the U.S.. It then stayed solidly in the top spot for three more weeks.
The track also charted in five other countries, including the United Kingdom, where it was eventually certified Silver. It was certified Gold in the United States.
Listen to Sexion d'Assaut's 'Casquette à l'envers' from The Boys, Season 2, Episode 6
The Turtles' 'Happy Together' has since been licensed for plays on a plethora of hit TV series over the years as Music Supervisors seem to like its happy sound also being able to be used to illustrate scenes that actually aren't quite so happy.
The dichotomy between what you hear and what you see.
Placements on shows' soundtracks include Laurel Canyon, Heathers, Skylines, Claws, Why Women Kill, Rick and Morty, The Big Bang Theory, The Simpsons, South Park, Scrubs, Cold Case, The Blacklist, ER, The Wonder Years and many many more.
Listen to The Turtles' 'Happy Together' as featured on this week's The Boys in the video below. And then try to get that disturbing scene out of your head.
Really. You should.

FIXED: Fix how surface constraints/shutters work for surfaces with multiple screens, which were broken in 3.1.
FIXED: A number of user interface bugs in the surface editor.
FIXED: Stopping an audio cue with a tail (e.g. reverb) will again let the tail play through.
FIXED: Clicking in audio waveform view when cue is playing now works when cue uses audio effects.
FIXED: More resilient to broken Audio Units.
FIXED: Prioritize the selection of slice handles on the audio waveform when the fade envelope is visible. This makes it less finicky to click and drag slice handles.
FIXED: Miscellaneous other bugs and crashes.
CHANGED: Surface "shutters" have been renamed to "constraints" to avoid confusion with e.g. physical shutters on light fixtures.
ADDED: "Revert Fade Action" tool for fade cues. This immediately reverts any changes the fade has made on the target cue, except for values adjusted by other fade cues since the selected fade ran.
ADDED: When dragging files and directories in from the Finder, QLab will now create group cues for each directory which contain sub-cues for each file in those directories.
ADDED: MIDI channel filter for cue triggers. This allows individual cues to filter incoming MIDI based either on the default (workspace-level) channel, or to be set independently to a custom channel.
ADDED: AppleScript support for setting a cue's MIDI trigger bytes by text, to allow for the greater than (>) and less than (<) operators.
ADDED: Left/right scrolling in audio waveform view.

Naser: So, what do you guys think of mental health? Kristine, what is it about mental health that attracted you to the subject?
Kristine: I feel like with mental health, it implicates a lot of people so I mean it effects everyone and it kind of starts early and I feel like a lot of people don't even talk about mental health and [whether] they have it or not. Some people might not even know that they have [a mental illness], but there are a lot of issues – cultural, social and what not that do lead to the stigma of mental health [illness].
Silvia: I have some friends who suffer from mental illnesses. So just from experiencing some of them not really being aware [of their] mental illness or trying to hide it from their friends, that affected me. I want to reach out and help bring them out of their shell, show them that it's okay to reach out. I think [it's] also part of the stigma that they're afraid to reach out for help. I really want to eliminate that.
Naser: What comes to mind when you think of mental health?
Silvia: Well, what's interesting is my friend who suffers from a mental illness told me that mental illness isn't about being happy, it's about surviving. That really put things into perspective for me, and I realize now that it's something that people have to live with for the rest of their lives. It's something that they battle with everyday.
Naser: I mean do you have to be severely ill before..
Naser: Yeah, before you focus on being well. […] There are so many habits, healthy habits that if incorporated can further your mental well being, you know? That changes your life, I think because it changes everything. It changes your experience. Everything you know, everything you believe is through your mind. Everything you think about another person is through your mind. So if that mind of yours is cloudy your whole experience is cloudy.
Silvia: I think you should always focus on improving your mental well-being, but you can't choose if you have a mental illness. I think that's the point where you just have to make sure that you address both the mental illness and mental well-being.
choose if you have a mental illness, but you can choose what you do from that point. You can choose to you know…you can accept it.
Silvia: I think it's interesting that sometimes you can reach out to strangers and you'd be surprised by how receptive they are. […] Just through a personal experience; someone that I wasn't exactly the closest with came to me for help, instead of going to their best friends. They told me the reason was because they were afraid to tell their best friends about their problem because it would hit too close to home. So, it's important to be there not just for your best friends, but just to be there for everyone in general.
Naser: One thing I've noticed too is people who have had some kind of struggle themselves they're much more open to helping.
Naser: Because I know it's a hard place to be.
Kristine: Exactly! and I know that it's hard to come out from where you are and I've been through that. I've overcome it and I'm here for you to know that I'll be here to support you.
