Hi Rosie. Loved the latest video about the amazon range. Are you able to do more tutorials on how to apply eyeshadow. I really could use the tips on getting a great day look and night look but without it being too out there.
Hi Sam! Thanks for the kind comment. We have a few videos in the editing queue, and you should be happy with what's coming up! —Team Rose Inc.
I could watch Rosie do her skincare all day. I'd love to see a Rosie hair routine video! No bells and whistles, just her every day styling routine.

Love love love the video. Does Rosie use face scrub in her skin care routine ??
I would like to see a video on her hair routine and also body care routine . This would be very interesting!!

Cancer is one of those individuals who can understand and accept Virgo's detailed and extremely practical nature. Virgo will appreciate Cancer's love and caring and in return will give commitment. Due to Virgo's perfectionism, if Crab does something wrong the Virgin can be very sarcastic, which Crab does not appreciate. To make it work, Virgo will need to be more patient and Cancer should learn how to be more rational and use criticism for own benefit, and not just getting hurt by it. It might be difficult to adjust, but might as well be worth it.

Siamak Shokri, Ph.D. candidate in chemistry, won a Best Poster Award at the 27th Inter-American Photochemical Society Meeting in Sarasota, Florida, January 2-5. His adviser is Jean-Luc Ayitou, assistant professor of chemistry.
Shokri won for his poster "Synthesis, Optoelectronic Properties and Excited State Dynamics of Baird-type Antiaromatic Thio- and Oxo-Naphthoquinodimethanes." Naphthoquinodimethanes (QDM) are novel light-harvesting polycyclic molecular scaffolds, which have recently been synthesized in Ayitou's lab.
Ayitou's lab blends conventional organic synthesis techniques and photophysical and photochemical paradigms to devise alternatives and complementary approaches for energy applications, organic materials, and sustainable chemical synthesis. The group's primary focus is energy transfer in organic crystalline materials. Specifically, they are investigating the diffusion and annihilation of excitons that originate from organic chromophores, which are known to form crystalline solids under ambient conditions.
The group also hopes to make use of the organic chromophores of interest to devise organic electronic devices, and to explore novel 2D frameworks for various applications such as light induced micro-patterning. In addition, Ayitou and his team are interested in synthetic organic photochemistry and photocatalysis with an emphasis on green and sustainable reaction conditions.


3) Could Each Group on FTT's "List" Become Someone's Focus This Year?
4) Could Saudi Arabia Relax Its Ban on Christian Churches?
5) Where Else Can You Get a 20-foot by 5-foot Banner for just $50?
7) Defining Generations: What's Next?
The Jewish people have been given the promise of the coming of the Messiah in the Old Testament and the fulfillment in the New Testament. In the last 50 years, many Jews have received Jesus or Y'shua as their promised Messiah. Here's a site with video testimonies by Jewish people who believe that Jesus or Y'shua is the Jewish Messiah. Please consider sharing this website with your Jewish friends.
We sure live in exciting times.
There are other lists, naturally, from other ministries. And no matter what list one assembles, someone, somewhere, will likely differ in opinion. But FTT has indeed pulled together a marvelous network of churches and agencies who are serious. They've also focused heavily on trying to raise bucks to invest in actually DOING it (instead of just advocating for it subjectively). They've been unswerving in the face of criticism and Paul is very connected. The short answer is: Yes. It could happen in December. If we pray hard — and believe.
One final caveat — and this is a big one. Just because someone says, "OK, I'll tackle that group," it doesn't mean they'll actually DO it. Nor does it mean the people will respond. If we want security on those two huge loose ends, we'd better all spend some serious time in our prayer closets — and hope that God shows up in a big way in coming decades.
Of course, if you've already looked at the Economist a bit much, you might have to visit a university if you want actually to READ this article. : ) But bottom line is — maybe the Prophet tolerated churches in Arabia more than we thought.
Here's a blog entry chalked full of stats suggesting you might be right. We DO have too much 'stuff' in our homes in the USA.
Gripping stuff. Love the closing paragraph.
Missional University provides affordable, online, Christian missional training and education for grassroots leaders in diverse cultural contexts across the globe. MU prepares biblically-grounded, missional leaders who join the mission of God in diverse communities, by incarnating the gospel with culturally-appropriate skills.

We'd love to build a packet of proposed sermons on missions that we could hand to a lead pastor at a church whose Missions Committee is saying, "We want to get serious about fulfilling the Great Commission." In this case, the lead pastor is very open to suggestions. He just needs stimulating ideas about how to frame some first-class, gripping messages about finishing the global task. Outlines and illustrations would be best, but we'd even be willing to direct him toward audio and video examples if need be (though, like most senior pastors, he's very busy). So please… give us your best shot. Click "Comment" following the web or app version of this item. Thanks so much for any help you can give.
John Campbell and Matthew Page have done us all a great service by pulling together the most recent and relevant look at Nigeria, including much about the threat of Boko Haram and religious conflicts. If you work there, travel there, or pray for there, this book is worth the read.
…a $50 gift from one of the most helpful (and anonymous) partners ever for Brigada. We appreciate you!


"1st Neochrome Scooter Bars Released Worldwide"
Dare have listened to the needs of many riders, by making the bars much taller than our V1 and V2 going up to 27" tall and 24" wide so they suit even the tallest riders. Riders were asked about colours and the vast majority preffered the matt black finish over gloss hence the choice to use this on the new bars.
They are Std size tubing and cut for SCS as std to give the maximum height but can of course have a slit cut for use with ICS.


3rd December is International Day of People with Disabilities, when we focus on the contribution that men, women, girls and boys with disabilities make to their families, communities and societies – and highlight the benefits for everyone of greater inclusion. This year, our focus for the day is on economic inclusion and work.
It is nearly 70 years since the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights set out the right to work. According to Article 23.1 of this landmark document: "Everyone has the right to work, to free choice of employment, to just and favourable conditions of work and to protection against unemployment". But for many, the opportunity to earn a living is out of reach - people with disabilities face lower employment rates across both high income, and low and middle income countries. In particular, those with mental health conditions or intellectual disabilities face the lowest employment rates.
Men and women around the world face major barriers to finding a job or earning a living. These barriers include lack of access to education and training to gain skills and qualifications; stigma and prejudice, such as assumptions from employers that disabled people will be less able or productive; physical barriers to, and lack of reasonable accommodation in, the workplace; and, in some places, over protective laws or social security systems that make it difficult to transition from benefits into employment. Those seeking self-employment may also face discrimination when seeking credit or loans.
In many parts of the world, people with disabilities in work are more likely to be in vulnerable forms of employment. For example, in Indonesia 63% of people with mild disabilities in work are self-employed, compared to 34% of those without disability; and in Mongolia men and women with disabilities are four times more likely to be employed in the informal sector than people without disabilities.
This exclusion impacts on individuals in a number of ways. Critically, exclusion from work affects the income of an individual and often their household, and the circular link between disability and poverty is well known. In South Africa, for example, it is estimated that people with severe depression or anxiety earn only half the average national income. In Uganda, 77% of households including a person with a severe disability face multi-dimensional poverty, compared to 69% of other households.
There is a strong link between being able to control your employment options and emotional wellbeing. Rajesh, a CBM beneficiary from India, faced attitudinal barriers, including from his family, because of his disability.
"I have always tried to help with the farming, but my abilities were not recognised in the family, or in the wider community. I used to sit under the porch and feel really down. I used to focus on what I couldn't do, rather than on what I could".
During a visit to Tanzania, I met women receiving treatment for fistula, a disabling condition that leaves women incontinent, often for many years. Many of these women had become socially isolated and, when combined with the practical difficulties of managing incontinence while living in poverty, this meant that they struggled to earn an income.
As well as medical treatment, CBM's partner provides training in a range of skills which mean that the graduates of the year-long scheme can choose which of the skills they have learnt they will use to develop their own business, such as making bags. Equally importantly, they gain confidence in literacy, numeracy and business skills to ensure more solid foundations for their small business. This holistic approach is vital to helping recovery – work is not only a way to earn an income and reduce dependency on others but also helps build a sense of purpose and self-respect.
The exclusion of people with disabilities from work also has an impact on wider society and national economies. For example, it is estimated that the exclusion of people with disabilities from the labour market amounts to losses in lower and middle income countries of US $473.9 - 672.2 billion a year, because of lost labour productivity.
Conversely, the benefits of inclusion in the labour market stretch from the individual and their household, to society and the economy, for example in potential reduced spending on welfare and increased tax revenues.
CBM works with partners across the world to enhance opportunities for people with disabilities to earn a living.
In Rwanda, our new livelihoods programme will help increase financial independence through Village Savings and Loan Associations (VSLAs), a proven approach that supports small groups of people to save together and take small loans from those savings, which can be used to set up small businesses or invest in income generating activities.
Our organic farming programme in India has enabled people such as Rajesh to learn organic farming techniques - and go on to grow and sell produce, attracting a growing and loyal customer base. As well as increasing his income and self-esteem, Rajesh's inclusion in work has helped to change attitudes to disability.
Initiatives such as ours must be accompanied by continued efforts from governments and intergovernmental institutions to not only remove barriers to work for people with disabilities but also create positively disability inclusive policies on work and employment.
Governments must develop and implement their national policies to achieve the targets in Sustainable Development Goal 8 on full and productive employment and decent work for people with disabilities, as well as targets in Goal 11 to ensure accessible transport systems so that a person with a disability can travel to work.
We welcome the UK Government's commitment to prioritise economic inclusion for people with disabilities in the world's poorest places. This week, we hope that the Secretary of State for International Development Penny Mordaunt will re-iterate this commitment when she speaks at an event organised by CBM and other disability and development organisations (members of the Bond Disability and Development Group) to mark International Day of People with Disabilities.
It's vital that governments such as ours maintain commitments made to people with disabilities though development work and aid budget, ensuring that disability remains a priority, including through programmes that address livelihoods and income generation.
Breaking down the barriers to work that so often trap men, women and children with disabilities in poverty is vital if we are to enable every person to fulfil their potential and build a world where nobody is left behind.
In the next week, as we prepare for International Day of People with Disabilities on Sunday, we'll be sharing stories of economic inclusion from around the world – visit our Facebook page to find out how men and women with disabilities are earning a living and changing attitudes from Tanzania to Vanuatu.

A former Yonkers police officer will serve eight weekends in jail for assaulting two people in a bar while on duty last year, then falsely arresting one of them to cover up his actions.
It's good to know that he's spending a total of 16 days in jail for assaulting two people and then making a false arrest. It's such a wonderful thing to see prosecutors, judges, and police officers working together.
In all seriousness this is extremely disturbing and disappointing. Given the maximum sentence of 7 years just for the assault charges, he basically got off. Especially when you also consider the fact he falsely arrested one of his victims. The issues though are much deeper in the department than just him.
His partner remains the subject of an ongoing Internal Affairs investigation, Detective Sgt. Patrick McCormack said.
Guess they ran it like a team. It took Ramirez a whole 6 months on the force to do something like this. On the upshot at least the prick is broke, jobless, and living with his parents. It is disconcerting that they justify the light sentence despite the fact he plead guilty to three felonies. None of them though pertain to his abuse of power as a police officer, just "falsifying business records". The department may have fired him, but that's mainly to save face.
Because cops are allowed to vent and what better time than on duty and what better place than a bar when you can more easily frame the victim.

Swimmers from Tallulah Falls School showed up early and ready to compete on Dec. 1 at the Winter Snow meet held at the Ruby C. Fulbright Aquatic Center in Clarkesville.
According to head coach Annette Cochran, 240 athletes competed at the event, with the TFS varsity girls placing first and the varsity boys' team placing second. In middle school competition, the boys' team placed first overall and the girls' team placed second overall.
Junior Hunter Weyrich of Alto, junior John Nichols of Clarkesville, freshman Kristian Williams of the Bahamas and junior Caden Griffis of Martin were the top scorers for boys.
Weyrich placed first overall in the 200-yard individual medley and second overall in the 50-yard freestyle. Nichols placed first overall in the 500-yard freestyle with a third-place finish overall in the 100-yard breaststroke.
The high school girls were also highly competitive as a team, according to Cochran.
"The top seven scoring girls were all within three points of each other," she said.
Senior Norah Griswold of Clarkesville led the team with 33 points, a first-place finish and a third-place finish.
Sophomore Halle Weyrich of Alto, sophomore Gianna Diaz of Cleveland and senior Virginia Griswold of Clarkesville all scored 32 points each for the team.
Junior Reid Kafsky of Clarkesville and sophomore Maggie Jackson of Clarkesville each scored 31 points for the team, followed by freshman Karis Tatum of Mt. Airy scoring 30 points for the team.
Personal records on Saturday included Jackson in the 200-yard freestyle, Virginia Griswold in the 200-yard IM, senior Clara Madigan of Clarkesville with two new personal records in the 100-yard fly and 50-yard freestyle.
The middle school teams set multiple personal records, including eighth-grader Daniel Shin of South Korea in the 100-yard IM, with a time of 1:13.16, and in the 50-yard backstroke, with a time of 34.52.

According to the Babson Survey Research Group, the number of people taking online courses in the U.S. has grown to 5.8 million, with every 1 in 4 person enrolling in some type of eCourse. Over the last 13 years America has seen a steady increase in online learners and there are no signs of this trend decreasing any time soon. So my question to you is this; If you are not offering online courses as a part of your business why are you willingly leaving money on the table?
I offered my first eCourse in October 2016. It was a 10 weeks telecourse on developing your self-confidence for female business owners and I charged $250. Ten women signed up and I made $2,500. Not bad to say the only "advertising" I did was on FaceBook to my connections. No ads and no emails.
Since then, I have offered a variety of virtual courses using platforms such as MailChimp, Zoom and Teachable, generating over $42,000 in revenue from this segment of my business in over two years.
But as I've experienced success in my business, I've also watched many professionals with an abundance of knowledge leave money on the table because they are not monetizing their expertise and knowledge. They are not tapping into the world of online learning which has shown a steady increase in users over the last 13 years. I witness entrepreneurs who are working hard, trying to see a million clients individually, instead of maximizing their time by offer online courses that would allow them to reach more people, make more money and utilize less of their time, allow them to enjoy the fruits of being their own boss. So guess what? I decided to do something about it.
I created eCourse Riches, a 6 weeks master class that will walk you through the steps of creating and launching your very own profitable eCourse.
We would never want you to be unhappy, but unfortunately, refunds are not offered on this course.
The course starts on October 22 and last for six weeks. Assignments are uploaded every Monday morning and we meet as a group virtually on Thursday evenings at 8pm EST. You will continue to have access to the course information even after your cohort ends.
How does lifetime access sound? After enrolling, you have unlimited access to the course information for the lifetime of the course.

Home 89.7 Bay 7 Things we'll learn about Elton John's life in 'Rocketman'
7 Things we'll learn about Elton John's life in 'Rocketman'
He's released an insane amount of music hits. He's set trends all around the globe. Elton John is an amazing artist, no one can deny that, but how much do you actually know about his life?
With the release of his biopic, which is now showing at the Eden Cinemas, here are 7 things we'll learn about Elton John's life in the film 'Rocketman'.
1. Where Elton John wrote 'Your Song' and how long it took him to write it
While watching Rocketman, you'll see many key career moments from Elton's life, but one moment which truly made a difference in Elton's career has to be when he wrote 'Your Song'. This was his first hit single and reached the top ten in the UK and the US.
2. What happened to Elton's father
It's no secret that Elton John was not exactly close with his dad, and Rocketman portrays this point quite well. Elton even failed to attend his father's funeral in 1991.
Learn more about Elton's relationship with his dad in his biopic.
3. The inspiration behind his 2001 hit, 'I want love'
We know that the music video of 'I Want Love' stars Robert Downey Jr., and that the song reached the top ten in Canada and the UK. In Rocketman, however, we find out what the song is all about.
4. More about Elton's grandmother Ivy
With his father not being exactly in the picture, his grandmother Ivy was the person who supported Elton and pushed him to focus on his career and encouraged his early love for the piano. Watch how she helped Elton make the first step in his musical career.
5. Learn not only about his huge anthems, but also his lesser known songs
Rocketman promises over a dozen of Elton's biggest hits, but you'll also get the chance of hearing and learning a bit more about lesser known songs like: 'Rock and Roll Madonna' released in 1970 and 'Thank You for All Your Loving', released in 1968.
6. Watch a recreation of Elton's famous video 'I'm Still Standing'
Will you watch the music video created just like Elton John performed it back in 1983? Will you watch a creatively recreated video? You'll have to watch 'Rocketman' to find out, but one thing is for sure; you won't be able to hear that song without imagining the 'Rocketman' version in your head ever again.
7. How he met his wife, Renate Blauel
You probably know that he got married in 1984, and divorced merely four years after. But do you know how they met? Soon after the two divorced, Elton John came out as gay, but in the film, you get to learn more about their relationship and watch them get married.
'Rocketman' is now showing at the Eden Cinemas. You can get your tickets for Elton John's biopic by following this link.

Il Libertario fu un settimanale anarchico e libertario della Spezia, pubblicato fra il 1903 ed il 1922.

La storia
Il periodico iniziò le pubblicazioni il 12 luglio 1903 fondato dall'anarchico Pasquale Binazzi e dalla sua compagna Zelmira Peroni. Raggiunse ben presto rilevanza nazionale per la chiarezza di impostazione e per alcune famose campagne (contro la parzialità di alcune sentenze della magistratura, contro il militarismo e contro il clericalismo). Venne soppresso quando il regime fascista iniziò la sua ascesa al potere. Il direttore responsabile per tutta la durata del periodico fu lo stesso Pasquale Binazzi (coadiuvato da Zelmira Peroni che lo sostituì in diverse occasioni anche per lunghi periodi). Binazzi anche fra il 1942 e il 1944 costituì un riferimento organizzativo della federazione anarchica che si stava ricostituendo; le raccolte del periodico sono di basilare interesse per lo studio e la comprensione delle lotte operaie di inizio secolo e per le diatribe che provocò la partecipazione o meno alla prima guerra mondiale. Sono disponibili nell'Archivio della Famiglia di Camillo Berneri ed, assieme ad altre curate da Aurelio Chessa, costituiscono una fonte fondamentale per gli studi del periodo storico e gli studi di ricostruzione dello sviluppo dell'anarchismo italiano portato avanti in gran parte dallo stesso Aurelio Chessa.

Former Rep. Beto O'Rourke of Texas said Thursday that if elected president he would sign off on a resolution that calls for the creation of a commission to study reparations for the descendants of slaves.
The embrace of the reparations push on Capitol Hill comes after he passed on multiple opportunities to sign off on previous iterations of the legislation that former Rep. John Conyers Jr. pushed for years with little success.
Asked by Rev. Al Sharpton at a National Action Network gathering in New York whether he could be counted on if elected president to sign the bill - now being carried by Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee of Texas - Mr. O'Rourke didn't miss a beat.
The Jackson Lee bill has won 31 co-sponsors on Capitol Hill, including Rep. Tulsi Gabbard of Hawaii, who is also running for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination.
Ms. Gabbard, Mr. O'Rourke and former Rep. John Delaney of Maryland - three members of the class of 2013 - did not co-sponsor the Conyers-led efforts in previous sessions of Congress.
The idea, though, has picked up speed in the 2020 presidential race.

US forces re-enter Karbala
US occupation forces have re-entered Karbala's city centre, but found no signs of the Mahdi Army.
22 May 2004 15:29 GMT
Karbala has been the scene of violent clashes
"About 40 tanks and military vehicles advanced on the city centre by three roads," into the area around the shrine of Imam Husain, a local resident said on Saturday night.
The occupation soldiers then ordered residents in Arabic over loudspeakers not to go on their porches, not to approach windows and not to open their doors.
Their advance to the city centre came hours after a top US general denied claims by an Iraqi resistance leader that a pull-back from the locality was being finalised.
Karbala - holy to Shias around the world - has witnessed heavy fighting between occupation forces and Shia leader Muqtada al-Sadr's Mahdi Army over the past few weeks.
Strong denial
Brigadier General Mark Kimmitt said he had heard the reports, but was "not aware of any withdrawal going on in Karbala".
"We've repositioned some forces inside of Karbala but it's quite a stretch to consider that to be anything remotely resembling a withdrawal"
Brigadier General Mark Kimmitt
"We've repositioned some forces inside of Karbala but it's quite a stretch to consider that to be anything remotely resembling a withdrawal," he said.
Kimmit was responding to Ali al-Kazali, a senior member of the Mahdi Army, who said resistance fighters had laid down their arms in the city centre.
"We have decided to remove all the Mahdi Army presence from the centre of the city as we are waiting for the agreement with the other side to be finalised this afternoon," Kazali said.
On Friday, US troops pulled back from the centre of
Karbala after days of heavy fighting with resistance fighters.
Earlier in
the week Iraq's most revered Shia cleric, Ayat Allah Ali
al-Sistani, called on both US forces and the Mahdi Army to
withdraw from the holy cities.
Al-Sadr has repeatedly expressed his opposition to the "foreign invaders" and has called on them to leave Iraq.
Clinton speech
Former US President Bill Clinton has meanwhile said the United Nations is better suited than the US to lead Iraq towards democracy.
The former US president is critical
of the Bush administration
"We would be better off in the long run if Iraq can succeed as a democracy but it will be challenging," Clinton said in a speech in Brazil.
"There are so many people who suspect our motives," the former president bemoaned. "I don't think Iraq was about oil and imperialism but it was about unilateralism over cooperation as a way to shape the world in the 21st century."
He insisted democracy in Iraq was attainable, but the effort should be multilateral, with the United Nations taking a leading role.

Q: How to read integer array values coming in JSON parameter in Postgres - Missing "]" after array dimensions I'm very new to Postgres and trying to insert the array integer values into a table as multiple rows.
Here is the json string
'{

"types": [3,6]

}'

trying to read and insert the types into a table with an error
INSERT INTO table(type) SELECT unnest(par_json->'types'::int[])

ERROR:  malformed array literal: "types"
DETAIL:  Array value must start with "{" or dimension information.
Appreciate your help !

A: That's because JSONB arrays are not formatted the same way as normal integer arrays (jsnob use [] while int[] uses {}).
What you need here is the jsonb_array_elements_text function. I recommend you read the documentation on all JSON/JSONB operators and functions.
As for the solution to your question, this query will correctly "unnest" your values:
select x::int
from jsonb_array_elements_text('{"types": [3,6]}'::jsonb->'types') x;

Since the function returns text you have to manually cast the output to int.
If you'd like to convert a jsonb int array into a normal int[] in postgresql, you may use the following:
select array(select x::int from jsonb_array_elements_text('{"types": [3,6]}'::jsonb->'types') x);

You may even turn this into a function so you don't have to write this code every time yourself.

Real estate litigation and transactions can be complex. From purchases to inspections to appraisals, you need legal assistance to review all the fine print and verify that everything is in order.
While you may be tempted to save a buck with non-legal services, remember that only attorneys and lawyers belong to a regulated industry with clear standards and are required to carry insurance to cover them in case of errors or omissions.
If you work with a non-legal agent, you may not have any recourse in case the transaction goes wrong. Real estate attorneys are professionals who ensure that real estate deals are properly completed as anticipated. Only licensed lawyers, not real estate agents, can actually draft and revise legal documents.
A rule of thumb is that if you or your real estate agent cannot understand the contract easily, a professional real estate attorney should represent you.
Additionally, in some instances title insurance companies and mortgage lenders may require you to use a real estate attorney to make sure that all legal aspects are clearly outlined. Still, real estate attorneys are also necessary in a broader range of real estate matters including loan modification and short sale.
From individuals, to commercial organizations, to local governments, different types of organizations will require the services of a real estate attorney in cases of real estate dispute and mediation.
Real estate transactions that don't work out as expected commonly involve litigation. In the event of litigation, the real estate attorney has specialized training that allows him or her to draft legal pleadings with judges, participate in hearings and trials, bargain with opposing counsel, work out settlement agreements, and file appeals.
While some states may allow any lawyer that has passed the local bar association to represent individuals in real estate transactions, it is critical to select a lawyer specialized in the complexities of real estate transactions.
Failure to use the correct documents and forms may result in delays and loss of time, money, and filing fees. This is why it is important to work with well-established, local real estate law practices.
With over 25 years of experience in the Seattle and Tacoma markets, Dickson Frohlich assists a wide audience of parties in real estate purchase or transfer, disputes, mediation, and litigation. Whether you are a mortgage lender, a developer, or a homeowner association, our team of litigators is ready to serve your legal needs.
Our real estate, business, and probate law team is ready to help you in reaching a mutually beneficial agreement for all parties.
If you need high quality, cost-effective service and innovative legal solutions in real estate, count on Dickson Frohlich.

My youngest is deep in the dance trenches these days. Her team is getting ready for nationals and they're spending hours and hours at the studio rehearsing and perfecting. They're tweaking the choreography and adding in new tricks the girls have learned recently. L, the human rubber band, finally achieved a standing over split, which was added to a routine.
What is a standing over split? Well, everyone knows what a split is. An over split is where you can prop one leg up on a mat (or 3 or 4) and still go all the way down. Sounds painful, but stick with me.
This is my girl doing a standing split.
Now, imagine that top leg extended further over the back and the head arched back to pretty much cross that leg. That is what she showed me today. I didn't know what she was going to do when she ran up and said "I want to show you something!" or I would've gotten a picture of it. Yes, it looked extremely painful and the human body should simply not be able to bend like that. But it is pretty cool that this one can.
After having a friend spend the night and them staying up way too late and getting up way too early, after 3 hours of swimming with friends, after 3 hours of dance rehearsal, and after stuffing herself with more chinese food than she ought to have been able to hold, L was still talking 90 miles a minute on the way home tonight.
"Mom, I know this is going to sound weird, but can I go around the neighborhood and ask for money?"
Why yes, sweetheart, that does sound weird. "What for?" I asked, waiting to hear what her reasoning for *that* request was going to be.
"For Penny Wars! N did it!"
Penny Wars is the latest fund-raising scheme for their dance studio. There are many, many reasons I love L's dance studio and this is actually one of them. You see, they don't raise money for themselves. Everything collected for the Penny Wars goes to support an orphanage in Liberia that the studio donates to all throughout the year. It seems they were talking about it again today and mentioned that the kids in the orphanage only get a handful of rice to eat each day. L relayed this information to me tonight and said that was really sad, that it must be hard to live in an orphanage.
"Well, you know you used to live in an orphanage," I reminded her.
And it got really quiet there in the back seat.
"I did?" L asked in a small, amazed tone. "I forgot. I mean, I don't really think about that time."
Just like that, a fund-raiser for unknown children in a far-away orphanage with only a handful of rice to eat each day became very, very personal.
So L would like to ask for your donations, your loose change, to help take care of children in an orphanage far away that may never be as blessed as she is to find a loving home. If you have anything to send, please do it. If you need the address, email me at valerie@thestranathans.com and I'll get it to you.
Do it so that one former orphan can bless one who still is.
I'm in. Please do remind me the next time you see me.
Oh yea, orphans! I'm in too!
Count me in (from afar), with a bit of a tear of... Happiness? Sympathetic emotion?


When designing for the Web, developers historically have used hacks and workarounds due to browser limitations.
The mid-1990s saw a proliferation of such workarounds, among them single-pixel GIFs, font tags, and nested tables, to name just a few. Although the CSS2 specification became a recommendation back in May 1998, only recently have browser vendors fully implemented the standard in their products. This gap in time of browsers without CSS support to browsers with full or near-perfect CSS implementation means a handful of the browsers that most people use has poor CSS support.
To overcome the bugs in these popular browsers that have this poor CSS support, web developers have once again resorted to using hacks and workarounds to successfully achieve web page designs.
Even though problems might be solved by using newer versions of browsers, web developers might need to use hacks or workarounds to deliver the appropriate presentation to their audience, for many reasons.
Unlike web developers, most people don't automatically upgrade their browsers each time a new one is available. They tend to stick with the browser that's on their computer because it works fine, and will get a new browser only when they purchase a new computer.
Also, IT departments in many companies lock down the systems and prevent individuals from upgrading software applications on their own.

Some People Are Convinced That Beyoncé Is Dead And Was Replaced By A Clone
by : Tom Percival on : 11 May 2016 14:22
NBA All-Star Game 2013 Getty
A number of paranoid shut-ins – sorry, I mean Internet sleuths – may have cracked the greatest pop based mystery since Paul McCartney died and was replaced by an unknown Liverpool dockworker.
Apparently, contrary to popular belief, Beyoncé Knowles died back in 2010, and the pop icon that everyone's been worshipping ever since is nothing more than a cheap knock-off – a clone, Konbini reports.
According to the theory, after Beyoncé popped her clogs, her producers panicked that they were going to miss out on all that 'Single Ladies' cash.
edited_beyonce-1-810x1024 Facebook
Luckily, they'd taken precautions and managed to get their hands on her stem cells, just in case they ever needed a clone.
Good thing they did, as for the last six years (or 16 years, according to some) the singer's been replaced by an impostor clone without anyone noticing a thing.
Apart from a few keen-eyed Internet warriors who have exposed the whole sordid business to the world, presumably annoying Beyoncé's producers/evil genetic scientist overlords.
200 (1) We imagine it went something like this...
And this definitely isn't some crackpot theory like the Moon landings or crop-circles, because these investigators have proof.
First of all, Beyoncé's facial features have actually changed between 2000 and 2016 (even though clones are identical). Secondly, the singer herself has admitted that she has an alter-ego called Sasha Fierce who does things she 'wouldn't ordinarily do'.
However, the cherry on the top of this insidious ice cream is the above video, which is definitely evidence of clone-based mind control, and not simply a woman bored watching basketball, singing to herself.
That's definitely indisputable proof.
Beyoncé's not the first famous clone, of course – other lookalike replacements include Avril Lavigne, Miley Cyrus, Eminem and the aforementioned Paul McCartney, who's really been dead since 1966.
26204uq Twitter
Apparently, American TV personality Tila Tequila went off to be cloned back in 2012, but something must have gone haywire at the 'cloning lab,' considering she actually admitted to being a clone immediately.
Seriously, with all this technology they definitely have, why couldn't they have cloned David Bowie or Alan Rickman?

More of a concept than a journalist, Tom Percival was forged in the bowels of Salford University from which he emerged grasping a Masters in journalism. Since then his rise has been described by himself as 'meteoric' rising to the esteemed rank of Social Editor at UNILAD as well as working at the BBC, Manchester Evening News, and ITV.

Chronic pain is persistent long-term pain.
Pain is a localized, unpleasant sensation that can range from a feeling of mild discomfort to an excruciating experience. Pain serves the function of alerting the body to possible causes of injury, or making an affected person (or animal) withdraw from a source of harm. It may be acute (in which it appears and disappears suddenly) or chronic (in which it persists for days, weeks, or even longer).
Pain results from the stimulation of sensory nerve endings called nociceptors in the skin. Pain receptors are also present in other structures, such as the blood vessels and tendons. Some nociceptors respond only to severe stimulation, such as cutting, pricking, or extreme heat; others respond to warning stimuli such as firm pressure or stretching. Signals that arise from the nociceptors are transmitted via nerves to the brain. In addition, chemicals called prostaglandins trigger inflammation and swelling, and further stimulate the nerve endings. Pain that may be felt at a point some distance from the cause is known as referred pain (see pain, referred).
Pain is usually associated with distress and anxiety, and sometimes with fear. People vary tremendously in their pain thresholds (the level at which the pain is felt and the person feels compelled to act). The cause and circumstances of the pain may also affect the way it is perceived by the sufferer. The pain of cancer, because of fear of the disease, may seem much greater and cause more suffering than similar pain that results from persistent indigestion. Unexplained pain is often worse because of the anxiety it can cause; once a diagnosis is made and reassurance given, the pain may be perceived as less severe.
In some cases, pain may be felt due to emotional reasons rather than any obvious physical cause (psychogenic pain). The experience of pain may be reduced or blocked by arousal or strong emotion; for example, an injury sustained during competitive sport or on the battlefield may go unnoticed in the heat of the moment.
Some people believe that mental preparation for pain, in advance of situations such as childbirth or in experiments to test pain, can greatly reduce the response. A person's response to pain is also greatly modified by past experience; the outcome of previous episodes of pain may affect the way in which the individual copes with subsequent pain.
Factors such as insomnia, anxiety, and depression, which often accompany incapacitating chronic illness, lower tolerance to pain. Many hospitals now have specialist pain clinics, in which people with severe pain that has proved difficult to control may be assessed and treated. Such patients include those with advanced cancer and poorly understood conditions such as facial pain and various types of neuralgia.
Treatment is for the underlying cause of the pain. It may involve analgesic drugs, electrical stimulation (TENS), surgery, or therapies such as acupuncture.
Why cognitive behavioural therapy for chronic pain?

Rinse the millet seeds under cold water. This will neutralize the bitterness of the seeds.
Bring the water to the boil in an earthenware pot, add the millet seeds and cook over low heat as you keep stirring. Add the milk and let the porridge simmer until the millet is tender. Season with salt. To prevent the porridge from burning, you may want to place the pot in a basket or box lined with hay.
Add honey, cinnamon and crushed hazelnuts to your liking. Serve with stewed fruit.
Melt the butter in a large earthenware pot. Whisk in the flour until smooth. Add the buttermilk a little at a time. Whisk well to avoid any lumps in the gruel. Ad a pinch of salt and let the gruel simmer until it starts to boil. Remember to stir occassionally.
Serve with stewed blackcurrants and honey on top.
In an earthenware pot, make a porridge of milk and barley flour. Or if you have some leftover barley porridge made of milk and crushed barley corn, this will do as well.
The porridge has to be completely cold. Stir in the eggs and a little salt. If you use leftover porridge as described above, you must add a little barley flour to form a smooth paste/dough.
Form into oblong balls/dumplings with a wooden spoon. To cook the dumplings, bring a pot of water with a pinch of salt to the boil. Carefully drop a few dumplings at a time into the water. They are done when they begin to float to the top. Wait a few minutes before you remove the dumplings to drain.
While cooking the dumplings, you also need to prepare the bacon. Dice the bacon and cook until crisp on a hot pan.
Serve the dumplings with the crispy bacon.
Barley groats can be cooked in water, cow's milk or buttermilk.
Bring the fluids to the boil in an earthenware pot. Whisk in the barley groats and let it simmer until tender. Remember to stir occassionally to prevent the porridge from burning. Add a little salt. You may want to place the pot in a basket or box lined with hay to keep the porridge warm for a longer time.
Serve the porridge with honey, a little milk or stewed fruit.

Babar says awarding contract of Mohmand Dam to Descon unethical
PakistanToday
ISLAMABAD: Pakistan People's Party (PPP) Secretary General Farhatullah Babar, criticising the government for awarding the contract of construction of Mohmand Dam to Adviser to Prime Minister's on Commerce Abdul Razak Dawood's company Descon, termed it unethical.
In a statement issued on Thursday, Babar said that there should be a transparent investigation into the matter.
He said that PPP was waiting for the government's reaction over the issue, however, its silence has created more questions which is why the party was demanding a transparent investigation into the matter. Until the investigation is completed, PM's adviser should step down from his post, he said.
"Is it right to award the contract to Descon by rejecting the bid of the other bidder on a technical basis as it would have been better to announce new bidding after rejecting the bid of a party on a technical basis," he added.
He further said, "The government's explanation that Descon has only 30 per cent share is ridiculous and is an attempt to hide the real issue."
Meanwhile, PPP leader Murtaza Wahab said that the party would submit an application to the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) to look into the matter.

Ok, I know, they might not be the real colors that will be available on the 2008 BMW M3 but it is interesting to see how the M3 would have looked like if BMW would actually offer these colors. They look pretty interesting and I wish BMW would have been more innovative and gives us more options in terms of exterior colors.
The photoshop pictures are great and they were the creation of K3N R3D, a member of e90post.com. P.S The Laguna Seca has always been my favorite, that color is just AMAZING.

Sound Therapy is a very ancient method of healing. Tibetan monks, for example, have used a method of "overtone chanting" for thousands of years for treating illness. The theory is that since everything in the universe is in a constant state of vibration, including the human body, even the smallest change in frequency can affect the internal organs.
Modern sound therapists consider there is a natural resonance or "note" that is "right" for each part of the human body, and for each individual, so by directing specific sound waves to specific areas they can affect the frequency at which that part is vibrating and thereby restore it to balance and therefore health.
Sound therapy may utilize special machines that transmit "healing vibrations" (the British pioneer Peter Guy Manners has developed a system known as Cymatics that claims to do this). But more usually it involves direct application of the voice, music, or a variety of tonal sounds and sometimes a combination of all three.
The work of voice teachers such as Chris James in Australia and Jill Purce in Britain has been influential in showing many people how to discover and use their natural voice through the use of sound tones. In the United States, musician Jonathan Goldman has developed the therapeutic use of music through instruments such as the drum, didjeridoo, and flute.
Specifically directed sounds can be used in the treatment of a variety of disorders and have been particularly effective with mentally and physically handicapped children and adults.
How Do I Get a Sound Therapy Balance?
In my office you will lie down on a table similar to a massage table to receive the vibrational frequencies. They may sound like machinery whirring or a cat purring. Each session may be a few minuets to one half hour long.
Cymatics grew out of the early research by British doctor and osteopath Dr. Peter Manners into electromagnetic energy. Dr. Manners believes that every condition, illness, or psychological state can be treated or improved by the technique because it releases tension in the system and allows the mind and body to return to a state of equilibrium. Because it is based on scientific evidence and knowledge, it is used and appreciated by the medical profession. Cymatics is painless and has been adopted in many countries.
Sound Therapy has been developed to stimulate the neural pathways into and within the brain. It was pioneered in the 1940's by Alfred Tomatis, a French ear, nose and throat specialist.
Sound Therapy uses music, voice and nature sounds that have been specially filtered to enhance the sounds that are most effective in stimulating the brain's processing regions -the high frequency overtones.
In recent years Ingo Steinbach, a German sound engineer, took the work of Tomatis, updated it with the latest recording technology, and developed SAMONAS Sound Therapy.
When elderly members are ill, family members and friends can be key ingredients to their successful recuperation. Caregivers often seek opportunities to demonstrate love and caring, to eliminate stress, and provide a peaceful environment for their loved one. Focus becomes seeking ways to express love, listening for expressed needs, and intervening for patient comfort.
Controlling sound in a hospital or nursing home environment can be an important ingredient for peace, comfort, and harmony for both the recuperating elder and the caregiving family member. Sound therapy is a way of balancing sound waves and frequencies in the external environment with the internal waves and frequencies of the human body.
Intervention, Comfort, and Support--
Sounds can affect patients both emotionally and physically. Distractions because of extraneous noise can be a source of stress and diminish comfort, creating restlessness and discontent. Use of appropriate sound therapy tools and strategies can promote and rejuvenate brainwaves, thereby promoting relaxation and comfort.
Proper use of sound therapy such as soothing sound machines or soft music can help create positive mental balance and promote harmony to functions of internal body organs while assisting in encouraging better sleep. This creates a win-win situation for both the elderly and their caregivers.
Improving the home or hospital room environment through sound therapy—
Because our bodies are composed of a series of waves and frequencies, we respond to sound at different levels of comfort depending on the type of sounds. Sound therapy, therefore, can provide an enormous benefit to hospice patients and their families. In an environment in which a variety of physical and emotional situations can affect balance and harmony, introduction of sound therapy becomes a beneficial tool no matter the age of the patient or family member. In an atmosphere where lack of control of environmental interruptions is ever present, sound therapy allows both patient and family members to temporarily influence their responses and reduce stress.
Sound therapy can help eliminate mental causes of worry while easing physical tension, shock, and anger over situations that cannot be controlled. Specifically, sound therapy will:
• Reduces stress
• Relieves anxiety
• Encourages calm thinking
• Provides physical relaxation
• Encourages restful sleep
How Can You Provide Sound Therapy Balance?
It is important to monitor and adjust the room atmosphere. This can be accomplished using such instruments as soothing sound machines, relaxing music tapes, or reading favorite scripture verses or stories.
Avoid overuse of television. TV sounds can negatively affect the atmosphere in the room. Messages may also include loud noises and sounds from commercials or programs that can abruptly shock and traumatize body functions, creating mental discord.
Family members and friends, who are directly involved in elder care, can be a positive source of harmony and comfort by dealing with causes of physical and mental distress. These suggestions are also helpful to the caregiver who is an active participant in a "transitioning of life" process.

'South Park' Review: "Douche and a Danish"
Leo Ng October 19, 2016 Leave a comment
Season 20, Episode 5 – Douche and a Danish
Original Air Date: 10/19/2016
The latest episode of South Park, "Douche and a Danish," aired during the third and final presidential debate. While most of America was tuned into the debate, South Park offered up a very lackluster episode. The little preview that South Park Studios released earlier in the week gave a glimmer of hope of an intense show ridiculing Trump, we are instead given a very toned down, neutral position on the election.
The biggest gem to come out of "Douche and a Danish" is where the writers point out where certain Trump supporters stand. As with most of society, people tend to favor the side that favors the group to which they belong. Once the issue becomes personal, people get offended and switch sides. "You were cool with fucking immigrants to death but finger in the ass is where I lose you?" While women are clearly the group being marginalized in tonight's episode, it's easy to see this applied to any ethnicity, religion, or sexuality (even trolls).
This is where South Park's ingenious writing really gets shown. Correlations can be seen between the trolls movement with any of these minority groups. They were enjoying their lives until they started getting marginalized and hated on. Once their existence was threatened, the trolls needed to band together in order to survive. The personal story of Dildo Swaggins helped to make the viewer empathize with the trolls. It really brings up the question if trolls are really bad people or if they are just misunderstood in society?
Matt and Trey also laid down some foreshadowing for the rest of the season with Gerald instructing his new found friends on how to troll. Gerald states that you troll one group of people to hate one thing, then supporters troll on the haters which grows more haters. Sound familiar? Sounds like this very thing is what happening in a certain school in Colorado. It makes you think that perhaps Cartman, who seems to be leading the very ideas that are further dividing the boys and the girls, might be trolling everyone?
The other side plots were also advanced this episode. We find out that the lovable delicious memba berries are the cause behind all the problems in America. They cause civilizations to get lazy and stop trying to progress. Instead of trying to fix things, they decide to remember the good times that they had. The memba berries even try to the eater believe that new movies like Star Wars are great even though they aren't really as great as the original.
The episode ends with our possible troll Cartman sending a VHS tape to Denmark saying that he knows how to fix their issue. What exactly is Cartman building up to? While this episode was very mediocre, let's hope that Cartman's grand finale will be epic in the end.

World leaders meet in St Petersburg amid sharp differences over possible US military action against Damascus.
World leaders from G20 are meeting in St Petersburg, Russia, amid sharp differences over possible US military action against Syria, in response to what the US administration calls a deadly chemical weapons attack.
Thursday's summit comes hours after a US Senate panel voted to give President Barack Obama authority to use military force against Syria - the first time lawmakers have voted to allow military action since the October 2002 votes authorising the invasion of Iraq.
Washington and Syria's main backer, Russia, remained publicly at odds as Obama tried to build his case for military action, saying he would continue to try to persuade Russian President Vladimir Putin of the need for punitive strikes on President Bashar al-Assad for using chemical weapons when the two meet in St Petersburg.
In Stockholm en route to Russia, Obama said the credibility of the US and of the world was at stake.
Putin again questioned Western evidence. He accused US Secretary of State John Kerry outright of lying when, in urging Congress to approve strikes on Syria, Kerry played down the role of al-Qaeda in the rebel forces.
"Al-Qaeda units are the main military echelon, and they know this," Putin said.
Putin said US congressional approval without a UN Security Council resolution would be an act of aggression.
Putin also told The Associated Press this week that any one-sided action would be rash. But he said he does not exclude supporting UN action - if it is proven that the Syrian government used poison gas on its own people.
The measure, which cleared the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on a 10-7 vote, was altered at the last minute to support "decisive changes to the present military balance of power" in Syria's civil war, though it ruled out US combat operations on the ground. It was expected to reach the full Senate floor next week.
The Syria conflict, which began with a popular uprising in March 2011, has been stalemated, and it is not clear if US military strikes over the government's alleged chemical weapons use would change that. Obama has said he seeks limited pinpoint action to deter future chemical attacks, not regime change.
Meanwhile, China has warned other world powers of global economic risks following the potential US strikes on Syria.
Chinese Vice Finance Minister Zhu Guangyao said such "military action would definitely have a negative impact on the global economy, especially on the oil price".
He spoke in St Petersburg on Thursday ahead of the G20 summit.
He cited estimates that a $10 rise in oil prices could push down global growth by 0.25 percent.
He urged a negotiated UN solution to the standoff over allegations that Syria's government used chemical weapons against its own people, expressing hope that "the world economic balance will become more stable rather than more complex and more challenging."
Russia has also issued a warning that US strikes on Syria's atomic facilities might result in a nuclear catastrophe and is urging the UN to present a risk analysis of such a scenario.
The warning came from Russia's Foreign Ministry spokesman, Alexander Lukashevich. He said in a statement on Wednesday that a strike on a miniature reactor near Damascus or other nuclear installations could contaminate the region with radioactivity, adding: "The consequences could be catastrophic."
IAEA spokeswoman Gill Tudor told the AP in an email on Thursday that her agency is ready to "consider the questions raised" by Lukashevich if it receives a formal request to do so from Moscow.
Russia's Interfax news agency says that Moscow intends to bring up the issue at next week's 35-nation IAEA board meeting.
Obama has been lobbying for international and domestic support for punishing Assad's regime, which the US says fired rockets loaded with the nerve agent sarin on rebel-held areas near Damascus before dawn on August 21, killing hundreds of civilians.
So far, however, he has won little international backing for action. Among major allies, only France has offered publicly to join the US in a strike.
In a parliament debate, France's Prime Minister Jean-Marc Ayrault made a passionate appeal for intervention in Syria, placing the blame for the alleged chemical attack on Assad and warning that inaction could let him carry out more atrocities.
The debate ended without a vote since President Francois Hollande can order a military operation without one.
Obama has called chemical weapons use a "red line," and top administration officials argued before the Senate on Tuesday that Assad would take inaction by Washington as a license for further brutality against his people. The fighting has killed more than 100,000 Syrians and uprooted nearly seven million from their homes.
The civil war in Syria hit a stalemate almost from the start. The rebels control much of the countryside in the north, east and south, but the regime is hanging on to most urban centres in the west, where the majority of Syrians live.
