With the way things are right now I don’t really see a point in talking about my personal day to day. I mean, plenty of us are experiencing variations of the same thing, so what more can I possibly add. Right?
If you’re wondering how I know I’m a toxic friend; such as if I was told in some way or snooped or something… I suppose the answer is no. It’s more: I was having a conversation with a friend about an issue we had and certain verbiage they used kind of struck a cord in me. Think of a light bulb moment, but instead of discovering Shirokuma Cafe you get hit with a wave of ‘I really must be trash‘ & ‘I’m surprised they haven’t chucked me‘.
Anyway, this was my attempt at articulating my current thoughts and feelings in a way which hopefully made sense. I went back and forth on how to possibly close out the post for a while, but I think I’m going to have to just end it here.

Once you learn the facts about variable annuities, you'll see why they might not be as great a choice as they sound for retirees.
For years, there’s been a debate raging in the financial planning community surrounding something known as “The Back-Door Roth IRA.” New IRS guidance gives the green light for this strategy.
A new phenomenon may signal a trend in which IRAs play a bigger role in divorce settlements.
While this mathematical law may be self-evident, much can be learned from unpacking the subtle nuances of the relationship between pre-retirement savings and post-retirement spending.


However, smart smoke detectors come with an additional perk! They can even send an alert to your smartphone and give you the option to temporarily silence the alarm from your own smartphone, which is really great!
And what’s special about it is that it can even work with a wide range of smart-home devices. For instance, if an emergency takes place, the Nest Protecuse to make it easier for you and your loved ones to escape and find your way out.
What Owners Say About This Smart Smoke Detector?
‘’The best thing about The Nest Protect is its ability to tell exactly where the smoke is coming from. If I were sleeping on the fourth floor, it would tell me that the smoke is coming from the living room’’ added a reviewer.
This one is also one of the best! The Roost Battery is Wi-Fi enabled thatIt’s a good option for those who have already got smoke detectors at home but want to make them smart!
The good thing about this Roost Battery is that it gives its users the option to silence the alarm for some couple of minutes or even send it to someone else and that’s all can be done through an app which accommodates a large number of batteries.
That’s not everything as Roost Battery can also be connected to other smart home products through IFTTT. What are you also need to know is that this battery can last up to 5 years and can easily and effectively function with any smoke or Co alarm that requires the use of 9- volt battery.
Several users of this Roost Battery have highly flattered its customer service. And according to a reviewer, the device is super easy and cool to use and also pretty innovative.
Like the Nest Protect, this smart smoke detector also detects smoke and carbon monoxide, specify the location of the fire or smoke, and send you an alert to your smartphone. However, the unique be used for many other great things aside from warning you of fire.
For instance, the Safe & Sound can be used with Amazon’s Alexa to play music, listen to some interesting audiobooks, and also access Alexa’s other thousands of skills.
There aren’t many reviews about this device except that it can be easily installed and can stream music. While some complaints stated that the device is expensive and doesn’t provide good support of all Alexa’s features.
Normally, there are two types of sensors to detect fires, namely, Ionization- sensors and photoelectric sensors. The former is considered the best when it comes to detecting fast-burning fires while the latter is much better at detecting slow-burning fires.
In both cases, you need to have both of them in your house. Hence, The Nest Protect, in this case, is the best choice!
A good smoke detector should be able to detect both fire and carbon monoxide. Fire is the not the only danger as you might even get suffocated by carbon monoxide. Hence, before you purchase one, make sure it can detect these two.
The difference existing between these two is that the hardwired detectors are all interconnected. This means that when one of these alarms get off, the rest will do the same. Also, this kind of alarms tends to receive their power from your home and only use their batteries as backups.
However, the battery-powered can standalone but they might need to be replaced quite often.


Renewable 1,4-butanediol (Renewable BDO) is a liquid, colorless, di-alcohol. It is derived from renewable resources. The production process relies on a patented fermentation technology from Genomatica, based in California/USA. Th.
Like petro-based BDO and its derivatives, renewable BDO and its derivatives are valuable intermediates in y. It is used used for producing engineering plastics, biodegradable plastics, polyurethanes and elastic fibers for the packaging, automotive, textile, and sports and leisure industries, among others.
The hydroxyl function of each end group of the Butanediol reacts with different mono- and bifunctional reagents: for example with dicarboxylic acids to polyesters, with diisocyanates to polyurethanes, or with phosgene to polycarbonates. Additionally BDO is also a building block for the synthesis of polyesterpolyols and polyetherpolyols.

Missing Fresno teen hiker found alive in Utah canyon
Posted: Jan 3, 2020 / 11:45 AM PST / Updated: Jan 3, 2020 / 03:41 PM PST
SALT LAKE CITY, Utah (KTVX) – A 17-year-old Fresno hiker missing Thursday after he did not return from a hike in a canyon near Salt Lake City, Utah, has been found alive, according to the Unified Police Department.
CBS affiliate KUTV-TV reported that officials say Nicolas was found without shoes or a coat and that he is “extremely lucky to be alive.”
He was approximately six miles up the canyon from where the Uber driver dropped him off on Thursday.
Nicolas had been in Millcreek Canyon for almost 30 hours before he was found.
He suffered frostbite on his feet and was transported to a local hospital.
The teen was in Utah for college applications.
Spokesman Ken Hansen said the hiker, only identified as Nicolas due to his age, was last heard from at 7 p.m. on Thursday and was reported missing after failing to meet a friend in Park City.
The hiker took an Uber to the canyon on Thursday at 9 a.m.
The teen was staying at an Airbnb in Salt Lake City, but police said they did not find him there when searching the residence.
Hansen said that Salt Lake Search and Rescue searched for the hiker all of Thursday night in the Rattlesnake Gulch area of Millcreek Canyon. Ground and aircrews were dispatched and are continuing the search for the hiker.
The Associated Press reported that Nicolas’ mother was traveling to Utah from Fresno.

2021 isa - and the Korean Cultural Centre is pulling out all the stops to offer an autumn full of events.
The Comics Art Museum is hosting a major exhibition on the history of Korean comics. Covering more than 100 years, from the first cartoons published in the press to the paperless webtoons, through popular characters and major series, the beautifully curated The Rise of Korean Comics uncovers the dynamics and diversity of Korean comics and some uniquely Korean institutions such as the manhwabang, a sort of comics café that spread across Korea starting in the 1960s.
The guest of honour at the festival is the Republic of Korea and there will be a six-week-long exhibition, Speak through Comics, at the BELvue Museum, which examines the Belgian-Korean comics phenomenon.
Korean Cultural Days
All through the weekend, some 37 stands divided into five themes will be offering a wide variety of activities, products and food, including a kimchi truck, Korean cosmetics, which are a growing international phenomenon known as K-beauty, various workshops highlighting different aspects of Korean culture such as calligraphy, Hanji paper fabrication and sampling of Korean liqueurs and “temple food” presented by a Buddhist nun.
Moon Chung-in, special advisor to the President of Korea Moon Jae-in, has participated in the US/Korean and Korean/Korean talks and will be giving a talk with Q&A on inter-Korean relations at the Press Club Brussels Europe (13 October, 17.00-19.00)r).


Martin Luther himself, and what he accomplished is nothing short of amazing. Of course he would say, and it’s so true that it was not him, but the grace of God in and at work in him. Maybe his greatest contribution was to uncover and unshackle the gospel from the church’s traditions which had all but buried it. And this is not at all to say that all tradition is bad. Every church necessarily so, I think, and in reality has tradition. The question might be whether it’s good, or not, not whether a church should have tradition.
O(Catholic) church in Wittenberg, there is some fanfare, and much thought given to what the Reformation means for us today. There is no question as to its impact on both the church and society in the west, and really from that, throughout the world.
I am interested, yet wary and weary over the entire thing. I’m glad there are younger people, and those set apart in their study to pursue these questions. They certainly have relevance for our time and beyond. And it’s not like I’m going to tune out completely.
A call to follow Jesus. In everything. By God’s grace in and through him.
It is such a difference, either being in the light, or in the darkness. It is either a light or darkness which penetrates one’s very soul, their entire life. So that every act in the light is a delight, and in the dark is more like drudgery with difficulty. And at times, it seems I can be somewhere between.
Faith needs awakening, and so these times of being tempted, or even falling into the anxiety may serve that purpose. Nevertheless this passage, God’s word, tells us not to be anxious about anything. Pretty absolute from a loving Father. But instead in every situation to pray and ask God with thanksgiving with the promise .

Once we had finished our snack, we all piled into the cars once again and drove to the local baptist church, which sat at the top of a deep green hill that overlooked the village below. We were beyond fashionably late to the service and we arrived in the middle of a song. All of the women, dressed in their vibrant shukas and traditional jewelry, were dancing in the front of the room while a choir sang behind them from the stage. In the corner, a young man kept the beat on a funky DJ machine.
The service began with a brief sermon by the bishop’s wife, who just so happened to look like Michelle Obama. She was tall and dignified, beautiful. Then the bishop stood up and spoke about how all people need God’s protection. I’ve forgotten exactly what we need to be protected from. But I do remember the bishop being off-putting. He had a very strident demeanor. As he spoke, the church joined in with chanting and song.
Next was the community meeting. By this time, it was nearly 3:00 and I was hungry, freezing and about to pee my pants. Before Metamei gave his speech, the congregation blessed us and formally welcomed us into their church. We all took our chairs up to the front of the room and sat, waiting for the blessing. Then, several men and women formed a circle around us and began to sing. Suddenly, they began to pray for us. Not in unison, but individually. The voices mixed, creating a chaotic jumble of words, like voices in a horror movie. Then, just as suddenly as it began, the praying stopped.
At some point, we each introduced ourselves as well- Courtney, Cathy, me, Metamei and his team. We gave our names and said what we did, while someone translated our introductions into Maa. I remember the bishop asked each of us if we had been saved. Many of the men said no. I said, “I hope so!”
Back in our seats, we listened while Metamei spoke about his childhood, his Maasai pride and his education. He talked about what he wanted to do for the Maasai people, focusing primarily on empowering the youth and stimulating the economy. Metamei is an excellent speaker– he’s engaging, and his face and his voice are warm and welcoming, inviting you to listen. He will be an impressive leader someday, someday soon.
For dinner, we ate white rice, mashed potatoes, chibati and goat stew. I was so cold and hungry that it all tasted delicious, regardless of the occasional goat hair left clinging to the meat. We finished the meal with tea and yogurt.
In other news, I have 8 mosquito bites.


aSome critics of this term argue that the term has no real meaning in terms of political theory, arguing that a corporation is nothing more than a body of individuals, ruled by a governing body (elected by its shareholders) and executives appointed by that body. As such, it is argued to have as much a right as any other body of people to exercise powers. This argument does not hold when corporations are granted special legal standing, such as corporate personhood, which is not granted to all bodies of people. Pursuing the overriding shareholder interest in corporate profitability generally guides the actions of corporate governing bodies, and it is in the pursuit of this interest that corporations exercise their financial and marketplace power in order to influence public policrsh v. Alabama (1946) that a corporation that acts like a government should be treated as one.
There are those who suggest[weasel words] and point to alleged evidence of corporatocracy within the U.S. government by looking at U.S. history with the actions of Sanford B. Dole in Hawaii, William Howard Taft and the Nicaragua Canal, Dwight D. Eisenhower and his Operation Ajax allegedly in support of oil interests and Operation PBSUCCESS in support of United Fruit Company. They may believe Richard M. Nixon played a role in the overthrow of Salvador Allende Gossens to attempt to prevent the Chilean nationalization of copper, on the grounds that nationalization crimped U.S. based Anaconda Copper and Kennecott Utah Copper.
Those disagreeing with the above[weasel words] would argue the United States government was protecting America from Marxist governments, freeing people of those countries, acting against undemocratic governments, protecting United States citizens or acting for a variety of reasons other than supporting corporate corruption.
The term however is more accurately used to describe actions of Corporations interested in maintaining laws they consider positive for their interests and thus makes it a question of resources to spend (it can be cheaper to give money to a few individuals than to bow to strict laws that cost a lot). U.S. engineering firms; as a result, these countries become ensnared in a net of interest payments and debts they cannot repay. Uem. </s> Standard Power Sensor +20 to -70 dBm; 10 MHz to 18 GHz, N(m)

Our objective was to investigate the presence of a B and T cell immune response directed against the glycine-rich cell wall protein (GRP) d with food allergy. GRP is an ubiquitous food protein that has high homology with cytokeratins and other self proteins [EpsteinBarr virus nuclear antigen-1 (EBNA-I), heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein, fibrillar collagen] which are common targets in autoimmune disorders. A peptide (GGYGDGGAHGGGYGG) derived from GRP was used to screen human sera in direct and competitive ELISA assay. Anti-GRP-specific IgG were analyzed for their ability to cross-react with autoantigens. The intracellular cytokine profiles of the peptide-specific T cell clones obtained from representative patients have been studied. BALB/c mice were immunized with the peptide c. Serum IgG antibodies directed against the GRP peptide were detected in several autoimmune disorders and in food allergic patients, and were able to cross-react with autoantigens including keratin, collagen and EBNA-I. Twenty-five T cell clones showed a specific proliferative response to the GRP peptide and were of the Th0 phenotype. Eight of the 10 BALB/c mice immunized with the peptide coupled to KLH developed an autoimmune response. Our data suggest that phylogenetically highly conserved epitopes in plants, viruses and humans may be responsible foey also indicate that the antigen spreading of a particular sequence among apparently divergent proteins may participate to initiate or amplify an immune response.
Attempts to characterize


"I think I am the last of the Mohicans," he says. "The young generation no longer speaks the way we did."
Identification of different linguistic strains doesn't happen with modern Hebrew, a young language with a short history. Indeed, most of the people who speak it lived, or live, in a limited, cramped area, and therefore separate dialects did not develop here. At most, one can identify old-time Jerusalemites because they pronounce the number 200 me-ah-tayim rather than matayim, or use a local term for "lollipop."
"Some people poked fun at this form of speech," Keller explains. "They would ridicule us for the way we would say 'zebubim lebanim mistobebim' instead of 'zevuvim levanim mistovevim' ("white flies are moving about"). But, we in the colonies ignored them."
But where was the Galilee dialect actually born?
"First of all, he insisted that we always pronounce the letter bet as 'b,' whether it had the diacritic dot or not," says Keller. "In school they tried to make us say 'b,' and also 'p' [for the letter peh, which is usually pronounced 'f' when it has no diacritic dot]. I don't really know why. I think they wanted to give the people of the Galilee a special color. That's the way people spoke in the colonies and we still almost speak like that."
Why did Epstein and Wilkomitz prefer such a pronunciation?Keller thinks it has to do with the influence of Arabic: "For many years we were the Arabs' neighbors, we spoke and lived with them and perhaps those conversations with them led to this. Perhaps it's not refined speech. It was not seen as something strange or out of the ordinary."
"In Epstein's days people admired what was called phonetic languages, which had" says Or. "Esperanto, for example, was built on the basis of this principle and there were many suggestions for reforms in other languages, for example in the spellings of Russian and German. The idea that there would be only one way to pronounce the letter bet, and not two, derives from this principle, which no doubt guided Epstein."
However, Or believes that Epstein's ideas concerning letters with two possible pronunciations was logical: "Linguistically, his solution was very elegant compared with what eventually prevailed, which sets rules for bet (versus vet), gimmel (versus jimmel), kaf (versus khaf,) peh (versus feh) and tav (versus thav). [Now there are] strict rules with a very long list of exceptions. Such complicated systems usually cannot be taught and do not survive, so the Galilean dialect at least had an advantage in that it was very simple."
Nevertheless, the Galilee dialect did not last long: By 1913 the Language Committee (the body that preceded the Academy of the Hebrew Language) was already campaigning against it. Legendary educator David Yellin, one of the committee's founders, argued that a different Galilee pronunciation should not be allowed because it could "ruin the whole idea of uniform pronunciation."
"The Galilee dialect is interesting in terms of being a linguistic experiment by educators at the time Hebrew was being revived," explains Or. "It is not a full-fledged dialect. When one refers to dialect, one usually speaks of differences in vocabulary and syntax - and not just of the matter of pronunciation. But had the phenomenon continued, and had a group of speakers in the Galilee continued to differentiate itself from other Hebrew speakers - it is reasonable to assume that over time it would have developed other characteristics that would justify calling it a dialect."
For his part, Keller has a simple explanation for the dialect's disappearance. "Today people hardly speak Hebrew," he says. "Every conversation ends with 'okay' and 'bye' - and that's it, peace be upon Israel."


“I live life from a wheelchair and life is very different three-feet from the ground. People look at me and treat me different. It’s much harder to find a job, people don’t know what to “do” with me. I’ve lost more friends than I ever expected would turn their backs on me.”
“By starting up this website and foundation, I not only hold myself accountable every day to thousands of people but to myself.”


I grew up in a family where everyone had a role, and each person rarely stepped out of that role. My mother was the one who was in control, and this generally took place through making the decisions and keeping people inline through losing her temper.
On one side, this meant that it wasn’t possible for me to express myself, but on the other, it limited the amount of pain that I would have to experience. Usually, if I didn’t do as I was told or if I lost my temper, I would be in trouble.

How the Tech Sector Fares as Fed Turns Hawkish
Yesterday, the Fed raised rates by 0.75%, 25 basis points (bps) higher than indicated earlier, although analysts had been out there talking about the need for a 75 bp (or higher) increase. The 41-year high inflation rate (from Friday's report) likely decided things for them.
The Fed is essentially trying to protect the consumer and the job market, because those are the two pieces that can prevent -- or at least stall -- a slide into recession, as further rate hikes are announced. Powell said that a 50-75 bp hike would be announced after the FOMC meeting scheduled for July 26-27, although this could change depending on where the economy is at that point. The total hike slated for the year is 1.75%.
Of course, if the situation persists, and they can't pass increasing costs to consumers, producers will start to make less, and will therefore, buy less, employ less and send the economy into a recession. So, the goal has to be to stop the process before this happens. It's tricky because there is a lag between Fed actions and their repercussions.
Growth stocks typically suffer the most when there are rising interest rates or a recession. That's because they trade on the expectation of relatively higher future growth. Uncertainty in the economy hits these future projections, sending them further down than other stocks. Since most technology stocks are also growth stocks, the whole sector gets quite a walloping.
Looking at aggregate numbers and financial ratios for the sector at large reveals much. And so we see that despite the sector's cost of goods sold (input cost) continuing to increase through 2021 and the first part of 2022 (barring the last two quarters when there was slight moderation), its gross margin has continued to expand throughout.
This would be because of higher selling prices or higher volumes sold, or a combination of the two. The net margin has also expanded similarly, although slightly impacted by higher depreciation and interest expenses.
However, it is interesting to note that the sector's cash per share continues to shrink. Since it is not because of declining profits (as seen above), it must be because of increased investment in assets. Going by the sharp increase in the tangible book value per share in the last quarter, we can tell that there is an increase in either inventory or fixed assets.
As far as fixed assets are concerned, the return on assetsdipped only slightly in the last quarter (explained by the decline in net income).
The strong gross margin would not normally indicate that volumes have weakened. But more valuable inventory builds seem like a strong possibility. For example, if semiconductor inventories increased and if producers were getting good prices for them, the value of inventory would increase, lowering the inventory turnover ratio.
Overall, this means that imbalances could be improving in the technology sector even as the demand outlook weakens, which is not a great incentive to invest. Even if valuations are attractive.
That said, some stocks are better than others because their growth outlooks are not as weak. For example, electronics manufacturing services providers Celestica, Inc. and Sanmina Corp., electronic component provider CTS Corp., and analog and mixed signal semiconductor providers MaxLinear, Inc. and ON Semiconductor Corp. are a few examples.
What's more, Celestica's estimates for 2022 and 2023 have increased a respective 7 cents (4.3%) and 8 cents (4.6%) in the last 60 days.
Sanmina's estimates have increased a respective 35 cents (8.4%) and 22 cents (5.0%) in the last 60 days.
CTS Corp's have increased 27 cents (12.6%) and 25 cents (10.9%), respectively.
Analysts have raised MaxLinear's estimates a respective 36 cents (9.7%) and 43 cents (10.9%).
And finally, ON Semiconductor's estimates have risen 73 cents (17.5%) and 48 cents (10.8%).
So not all tech is the same and if you choose wisely, you may still be able to make some money. Rate hikes notwithstanding.

Read on the next page: How scalable is ray tracing?TG Daily: One of things we heard about ray tracing is that the technology is extremely scalable. So, let me ask: Just how scalable is ray tracing?
TG Daily: This result included the delay over Gigabit Ethernet?
TG Daily: 10 years ago, real time ray tracing was mostly science fiction, even when you used hundreds of processors running at clockspeeds that were close to the ones we are seeing today. What progress have you seen in this segment?
What technologies brought ray tracing down to the desktop computer?
Read on the next page: Taking ray tracing down to ultra-portable computers TG Daily: Ray tracing can also be used for precise reflections and refractions, currently created by using various tricks. How does ray tracing manage full resolution and full precision reflections and refractions?

Home Game News Call of Duty: Mobile – 5 tips to help you ace the...
Express is the newest map that has made its way to Call of Duty: Mobile. The map was first seen in 2012’s Call of Duty: Black Ops II. These tips should help you make the most of this potentially confusing mapon the new Express map in Call of Duty: Mobile.
The overall layout of the Express map is like a soft ‘U’ shape. Towards the bottom, you have the two tracks with platforms flanking each of them. One of the tracks has a stationary train, while the other sees a train run through the map. There are bridges that connect the far side of the platforms to the central area. Towards the top is the ticketing and turnstile section that can be used to flank opponents in the middle or to get behind them.
As mentioned earlier, a bullet train will barrel through the map. Players unfortunate enough to be on the map of the train will be instantly killed. Thankfully, before the train comes, the barriers on the track will lower. If you see that happen, stay clear of the tracks. It should be noted that when the train comes, there is a good chance that you’ll lose sight of your opponent on the other side of the platform and vice versa. Use this opportunity to reposition yourself and better take on opponents or simply catch your breath. If you want, you use the two bridges to get the drop on your opponents.
The tight and twisting nature of the map means that it is very easy to get the drop on enemies (and vice versa). This means staying mobilPlayers who choose to camp might soon be at the receiving end of a melee attack from behind. It doesn’t matter which weapon you choose, ensure you keep moving about to stay one step ahead of your enemies.
Speaking of weapons, certain areas tend to favour certain guns. Snipers may wish to climb onto the stationary train or the bridges and snipe any incoming enemies. SMG and shotgun users may wish to use the extra mobility granted by their weapons to go around the enemy via the ticketing area. Players who are confident in their aim may want to head over to the carnage in the central area.
UAV and Counter UAV can be extremely handy in a confusing map like Express. You may also want to equip yourself with the Sentry Turret Scorestreak that can pin enemies and block entire routes. Aerial Scorestreaks such as the Lightning Strike, VTOL, Napalm, or Chopper Gunner can have limited use as most of the map is indoors. However, Stealth Chopper and Swarm have limited use as they can be used to pin down enemies. The multiple levels make the Shock RC pretty useless, while the slow and ponderous XS1 Goliath is quite vulnerable.

. Biographical details from the _Dictionary of National Biography_. Southwood Smith, like Walker and unlike Chadwick, thought that the putrefying dead were more pathogenic than the fresh. Regarding the mummy and the statue, see Robert Pogue Harrison in his discussion of Michel Serres, _The Dominion of the Dead–21 and chap. 2 more generally. As I said in the acknowledgments, I owe more to Harrison than my occasional references attest.
. Louis Bertoglio, _Les cimetières au point de vue de l'hygiène et de l'administration_ , chaps. 6–7, gives an up-to-date survey as of 1889. Dr. du Mesnil put four rabbits and six chickens at the same level as bodies in a nearby grave; no ill effects. No ill effects after five months of direct contact with putrefying bodies; Prof. Colin killed rabbits, chickens, and dogs with anthrax and buried them at various depths. He penned animals above their graves; no effect; injected them with water from the soil; no effect. Mr. Carrot tested water from Parisian cemeteries; no taste, dissolved soap well; no evidence that it would compromise public health, etc.

"A Clergyman" [Thomas Lewis, 1689–1737], _Churches Not Charnel Houses: Being an Enquiry into the Profaness, Indecency, and Pernicious Consequences of Burying the Dead in Churches and Churchyards Shewing . . . That the Original of This Practice Was Founded in Pride, Improved by Superstition, and Encouraged for Lucre_ (London: A Bettesworth, 1726), 54–55. Lewis's _Dictionary of National Biography_ entry identifies him as a "religious controversialist." His opponents in this tract are Roman Catholics but also Low Church clergy who make money from the practice he abhors. His ideal church is that of St. Cyril, bishop of fifth-century Alexandria. I quote him not because he is at all typical in his views but because he illustrates the historical depth of the argument from abjection. Lewis's views find echoes in other traditions. According to Mishnah Ohalot 18.8, a Jew who enters to live in a house in Eretz Israel that previously belonged to a goy should examine it for buried abortives because of corpse impurity, since according to the sages, the Goyim are suspected to be buried in their houses.

. An authoritative account of the building of Castle Howard and its mausoleum, based on extensive archival research, is Charles Saumarez Smith, _The Building of Castle Howard_ (London: Faber and Faber, 1990), esp. 159–192. The quotations from Vanbrugh are on 161; on Toland's biography, see the _Dictionary of National Biography_ , and for Carlisle's relationship to him, see Smith, 167. For the parts I quote, see John Toland, _Letters to Serena_ (London, 1704), 97, 123; on 127 he writes about "the worship of dead men and women." See also Colvin, _Architecture and the After-Life_ , 316–322. On questions where the two differ—Colvin claims, as did contemporary sources, that the Earl of Carlisle was interred in his completed mausoleum when he died in 1738—I follow Smith, who shows clearly that this was not the case. By 1760, according to Colvin, there were at least twenty-five freestanding monuments in England and Scotland, although only a handful were outside churchyards. There were some, but very few, mausoleums in the churchyards of Europe, and none outside their bounds, before Castle Howard. Of course, having a neoclassical mausoleum was not in itself a rejection of Christianity. Christian emperors after Constantine, and others of the Christian imperial aristocracy as well, continued to build tombs in the grand pagan manner, but this bit of transitional history is not referenced in Hawksmoor's design. On this, see Frederick S. Paxton, "Communities of the Living and the Dead in Late Antiquity and the Early Medieval West," in Mark Williams, ed., __ (London: Wimbleton, 2005), 56–57. On the elimination of all signs of the rural population, seea survey of mausoleums in churchyards and outside them, county by county, see Lynn F. Pearson, _Mausoleums_ (London: Shire Books, 2002).
. Toland, a materialist and deist who was in constant trouble with authorities of various sorts, came into high Whig circles through the Third Earl of Shaftesbury and would later be influential on d'Holbach and Diderot. He failed to make Leibniz appreciate the troublesome Giordano Bruno, with whom he identified and who was burned at the stake for heresy in 1600. When Sarah Churchill died in 1744, the First Duke's bones were exhumed from Westminster Abbey and buried with her in the chapel on the estate. See _Dictionary of National Biography_ entry. The Duchess almost went along with Vanbrugh's plan; in 1723, Hawksmoor designed a triumphal arch at the Woodstock entrance to their estate, and Lord Burlington convinced her to build a 137-foot victory column; a tomb would have completed the classical fantasy.

Wet season in Cambodia
Aside from getting drenched, the main disadvantage of travelling in wet season in Cambodia relates to flooding and degraded road conditions. The bulk of roads in Cambodia are dirt and in wet season they turn to heavily rutted and pot-holed mud pits. Travelling in rural areas, particularly the north and northeast of the country, can be slowed considerably. You will still be able to go just about anywhere, it will just take longer.

If you're planning to drive in Mexico there are several things to consider.

Also you are required to have Mexican car insurance because your American car insurance is not valid. Getting a Mexican car insurance is quite inexpensive. Also, when driving towards Mexico City you can drive either on the free (libre) or toll (caseta) highways.

The toll highways always have at least 2 lanes and are very well maintained. Please keep in mind that the cost of driving on a toll highways does add up, especially when driving long distances.

SUVs are the favorite type of cars for Indians. We have been getting a lot of questions about SUVs and their launches. So here are 9 upcoming SUVs which we expect to launch in 2021. Do check out the list and make sure that you let us know which one are you most excited about.
This is a 7 seater SUV based on the Hyundai Creta. This SUV is expected to launch soon. The first drive experience of this vehicle is out on our channel. This SUV is expected to come with a lot of segment-first features. Also, Hyundai might price this SUV very attractively so if you are in the market for a big car – WAIT.
This SUV will be the competition to the Mahindra Thar. Yes it will come with only a petrol engine and a five-door format. Maruti might play its advantage with a price. Also, there is a debate that this Maruti Jimny might become a good alternative to the Vitara Brezza which is one of the best-selling Marutis out there.
The Force Gurkha had been shown at the Auto Expo 2020. This carAlso, the Force Gurkha with compete with the Mahindra Thar and Maruti Jimny. It will be more offroad-focused and will then miss out a bit on creature comforts.
The Jeep 7-seater has been named as the Commander. This car has not been spotted in India while being tested. This will be based of the new updated Jeep for 2021. The car is expected to e. The car is expected to come in FY2022.
The Mahindra XUV700 is the most awaited launch from Mahindra. With the XUV700 Mahindra is going to launch the best of its technologies to its customers. The car has been spotted testing for a year now. We suspect that the long waiting period from the Mahindra Thar, the pressure on the assembly line and now the lockdown is the reason why Mahindra has not launched this product yet.
The Mahindra Scorpio will be seen after the XUV700 in out market. This will be longer in dimension and will feature the same engine as the Mahindra Thar. In some ways, this is a 5 door that underneath as it uses the same platform. The car could be seen in the end of this year. Mahindra has also green lit the production of the Thar 5-door.
This Mahindra SUV has not got a fixed the launch date. It is a rebranded Mahindra TUV300. The name Bolero will be used as it might help a bit in sales. With the Bolero Neo, Mahindra will have another product in the sub-four meter SUV segment.
Tata HBX is a micro SUV from Tata that will sit between the Tata Tigor and Tata Altroz. It will be based on the ALFA platform which is shared by the Tata Altroz. It is expected to score high on safety and comfort being a Tata. It might become the safest car in its segment when launched later this year.
The MG Astor has will be based on the ZS EV. It is expected to come with only one petrol engine. The car has been spotted recently and some of the interior details of this car have been revealed. We expect this car to be MG’s next big launch. The MG Astor is a crossover type of vehicle and will mostly compete with the Hyundai Creta, This is why we are considering it in the list of 9 upcoming SUVs.

The Chalkboard. He was only able to eat ice chips and write on a small chalkboard to communicate.  This would be one of those times. His situation was dire. His health waning. He was uncomfortable. He was uncertain. Yet whenever a nurse, doctor, or someone from the medical staff would enter the room, he would motion for his chalkboard. Did he want the bed raised/lowered? Did he need his pillow adjusted? Did he want more ice chips? No. He would simply write FOUR WORDS: “Do you know Jesus?” That’s a picture I’ll never forget. A dying man at the end of his life, trying a make a difference in the lives of others for eternity.
Sick Enough to Die, but Well Enough to Live.  For many weeks, my dad was too sick to survive the surgery. The outlook wasn’t good. His health was failing fast. As he slowly deteriorated, we called the elders of CCV to come pray for him. They prayed over him and anointed him with oil. Soon, his body started to respond. He began to improve. Finally, he was deemed “well enough” to be put on the transplant list.
But my dad “took” to his new heart just fine. Soon, he was walking and riding a stationary bike. Eventually, the tubes came out. He was breathing better and more effortlessly than he could remember. His color was better. He had more energy. He couldn’t wait to go fishing.
2. Authentic Leadershipon CCV’s Teaching Team took the time to personally call me and tell me they were praying for me. They didn’t have to do that. They got an “all-staff” email they could have simply replied to. Yet, these men stopped and took the time to call me the week following my diagnosis to show their concern and support. Don Wilson, Todd Clark, Mark Moore and Ashley Wooldridge are the REAL DEAL. These leaders WALK the TALK and I’m proud to serve with them. I’ll follow leaders like that anywhere.


It is important to define a "Who, What, Where" when assessing your environment. Who has access?What programs are running and on which machines are they running?Where does the data reside that could be compromised?How is the environment secured?
MSI Says: Know Yourself – Unlock a DoS by Asking: Who Has Access?
So what's the big deal?Let's say an employee just got nagged about their three 15 minute smoke breaks every hour. Let's also say he has knowledge of the environment and/or experience with a vulnerability scanner. Technically, he could lock the facility down while searching out possible ways to retaliate and his employer wouldn't even know it. Worse yet, those who know this flaw exists could exploit it at will with a few keystrokes from their workstation. Not a good thing!

Griffiths. També van dirigir una seqüència animada de la pel·lícula Frida.En molt poques excepcions, les seves pel·lícules no tenen diàlegs significatius. Per això, en les seves pel·lícules, la banda sonora és molt important. Moltes dels quals han estat creades especialment per a ells pel compositor polonès Leszek Jankowski. El 2000, van contribuir amb un curtmetratge per a la sèrie Sound On Film de la BBC, en el qual visualitzaven una peça de 20 minutos del compositor d'avantguarda Karlheinz Stockhausen. Sempre que és possible, els Quay prefereixen treballar amb música pregrabada. A més han realitzat diversos videoclips per a grups comé van treballar com a animadors en el videoclip dirigit per Stephen R. Johnsonn ''Sledgehammer'' del músic Peter Gabriel, encara que no van quedar contents amb la seva contribució, ja que van considerar el seu treball com una imitació del treball de Jan Švankmajer.
Abans de començar amb el cinema, els Quay van treballar com a il·lustradors professionals. La primera edició de la novel·la d' compta amb els seus dibuixos abans de l'inici de cada capítol. Gairebé tres dècades abans que col·laboressin directament amb Stockhausen, van dissenyar la coberta del llibre Stockhausen: Converses amb e Després de dissenyar portades de llibres de temàtica gòtica i ciència-ficció mentre vivien a Filadèlfia, els Quay van anar creant dissenys suggeridors per a diferents publicacions que reflectien els seus interessos en determinats autors, portades per Italo Calvino, Louis-Ferdinand Céline o L'Estudi de les Pel·lícules d'Andrei Tarkovsky per Mark Li Fanu. Els temes que tractaven aquests autors els interessaven molt, i és que els textos literaris són la font d'inspiració per gairebé la totalitat dels seus projectes de cinema, i els serveixen com a punt de partida per desenvolupar les seves pròpies idees, i no tant com a guions. La seva destresa en el desenvolupament d'il·lustracions i de la cal·ligrafia s'observa en les seves obres amb, títols, intertítulos i crèdits que apareixen escrits a mà.

When last we gathered here together to speak of all things technical and the issues I'd been having.
First, let me just say-- I'm not really big on surprises. Even though Christmas is right around the corner-- the men in this family, when they buy something for someone---CAN'T WAIT TO GIVE IT TO YOU.
Thank you, Thing One.
It is light weight too! I've put lots of books on there , and it STILL only weighs about 7 ounces! Go figure.
The pouch is for travel. I can take with; for doctor appointments, overnights, etc.
I know I said the other day" it's like Christmas around here" ...but really, it's just another day on the calendar and sometimes being given something you never thought you wanted -unexpectedly-is nice. Obligatory or otherwise.  Once you try it on and wear it a little bit it's not so bad!! It makes you love and appreciate the GIVER that much more; because they give out of their heart whenever and however the opportunity strikes. It TRULY IS WHAT'S INSIDE.
Wow, amazing gifts! You must feel very special :) I love surprises, but only if I can open them on my own. I feel nervous if I open them in front of the gift-giver!
The calendar can help get the ball rolling but I'm finding I don't enjoy the "have to" of obligatory gifts anymore. I don't like gift giving to be a chore. Unfortunately, certain people would get all the gifts if I didn't have the calendar to tell me to get at it for others, because some people have more of a need or want for the things that I find myself drawn to giving.
 I hope you get a lot of enjoyment out of it. The cover is a great idea!
How blessed you are to have sons with such generous hearts! Although most of my gift giving is connected with holidays and birthdays, I do so enjoy being able to find a gift that I know will be much appreciated for no reason but the love in my heart.
What a lovely gift! I know you'll enjoy it. I don't have a pretty holder for mine like yours.
Such a generous gift and what a perfect cover for it too! Not too bulky and very lightweight! Just love green & blue together.
You have such a wonderful, loving family! All your "Things" are precious! I am so happy for you!!! Loved this post! I admire your relationship with your sons and hope I will be so blessed when mine are grown! You've made me smile, thank you!

Annotation: Hearing transcripts are provided for three bills -- H.R. 2863, H.R. 3719, and S. 423 -- to promote the creation of mechanisms to resolve minor disputes.
Abstract: Provisions of the three bills are examined. H.R. 2863 would cover minor criminal as well as civil matters; H.R. 3719 would be limited to civil disputes; and S. 957 would create a national resource center and provide funds to assist courts, States, localitienew mechanisms for the effective, fair, inexpensive, and expeditious resolution of disputes. Daniel Meador, Assistant Attorney General,stated that these three bills can contribute significantly to the provision of full and equal access to justice for the people of the United States. All of the bills would allow the Federal Government to play a constructive, yet limited, role in fostering experimentation. An article on the use of such alternative approaches in Florida is included, as are discussions of a nonjudicial model for housing disputes used in San Jose, Calif.; a project in landlord-tenant mediation in Colorado; and dispute resolution projects in Columbus, Ohio; Miami, Fla.; Rochester, N.Y.; Dorchester, Mass.; and Vancouver, B.C.

How do you take care of yourself in confinement?
Here are my do's and don'ts of how to take care of myself while on confinement – PLEASE DO SHARE YOURS!
My don'ts are in progress…starting next week I promise!
Exercising every day. There are millions of online resources to choose from, but for the past ten years I've been faithful to my Davina McCall's DVDs (I am forever grateful to my friend Helen for recommending them). My favourite are Body Buff, Ultimate Target and Fit. Each DVD usually offered two 30-minute aerobics sessions, one or two 30m-minute strength sessions focused on a specific area (legs and arms), and shorter abs and stretching session. I just adore them!
Becoming even curlier . If you're been inspired by my article to try curls for yourself, confinement is definitely a fantastic time to do it , as the first weeks of the process are…well, not very flattering to be honest!But having followed the Curly Girl Method for seven months now, I can definitely tell you it is so much worth it!And Miss WembleyWonderful is also in the process of discovering her curly hair, which is so nice!
Having a good try at face gym. I've been bugged by my dropping jawline and my puffy eyes for years but have struggled to do anything about them. After trying (and failing) to book an appointment with the Eva Fraser specialists, I decided to just start following basic face exercises from YouTube, 5 minutes a day. Obviously completely random but I'll keep you posted!
I have just started with the Nike Training Club app which is free. After having answered a few questions about your current level and what you would like to do (how many sessions per week…) the app suggests you a training plan easy to follow…at least at my "beginner" level!The exercises are clearly shown and the full session is rather short (until now). I usually do a short jog outside before and I'm done with my gym training!


One hundred years ago, the buzzword was vitality (and occasionally its jaunty cousin, “pep”). And, as with our purported lack of energy today, lots of companies had ideas about what caused that lack of vitality — and, of course, they were happy to hock you products to fix it.
‘Primary Education,’ 1905
“These people should be dead, but they’ve been kept alive by yeast!” Fleischmann’s ad, ‘The Ladies Home Journal,’ 1922
A 1923 Fleischmann’s ad in The Atlantic noted, “Many men and women who had been suffering from poor appetite have regained appetite and vigor. One of them wrote, ‘My vitality is back to normal. I have a ravenous appetite and every morning I get up full of ‘pep’ and ambition.’” The solution was simple: eat “2 to 3” Fleischmann’s yeast cakes every single day, sliced “like cheese or butter.”
‘The Atlantic,’ 1923
As a vitality cure, this one isn’t crazy. You’ve probably heard your resident vegan yap about all of the health benefits of nutritional yeast, which is just a deactivated version of the same yeast strain used to bake bread and provide 1920s pep. Both are full of nutrients like riboflavin and folate, and relatively high in protein — although today’s nutritional yeast is usually fortified to be more of a powerhouse. Oh, and if you’re thinking, “But Dr. Oz said that yeast drains your energy,” there’s two things you should know: that’s a different strain of yeast, and you may want a second opinion.
‘McBride’s Magazine,’ 1890
The ad goes on to state that the Erie Medical Company has “learned nature’s secrets, nature’s remedies, and work in full harmony and accord with nature.”
If it’s not obvious, they were manufacturing penis pumps.
The Erie penis pump is a reminder that, while “energy” and “vitality” are gender-neutral terms, they’re frequently used as subtle synonyms for masculinity — because isn’t it manly to be energetic? To be able to bust through reps, take charge of the situation, provide for your family, decimate your rivals, and still have the fortitude to get down like a bull on Cialis? This isn’t just conjecture — a 2015 study found that men who believed in images of traditional masculinity are more likely to believe that energy drinks can have profound results. The study’s co-author, Ronald Levant, noted, “These young men t way.”
But all of these energy “cures” conveniently ignore something: that sometimes, when we lack vitality, there’s nothing to fix. We’re imperfect animals that need rest in order to survive; not success machines that can use a constant supply of energy drinks to do more work on our “side hustle” (a phrase that should be set on fire with other high-achievement buzzwords). And while you might believe that the manlier man is the guy who can keep himself up all night to get stuff done, I’m going to spend my time with the guy who gets a good night’s sleep. At the very least, he’s less likely to need a penis pump.s — man

Q: python rows instead of columns I'm learning to use python and I'm stuck on this code.
I want to display rows but instead I'm getting columns.
I have tried different variations where, I get a row for the while loop but
Start_num = 0
while Start_num < 201:
    for Number in range (Max_num, -1, -25):
       print(Number)
This is how the output currently looks for this code.
25 175
75 125
       row1.append(str(Start_num))
print(" ".join(row1))
You need to build the rows ahead of time and then print them at the end. The terminal outputs only in text, it has no concept of rows or columns.
A: As a general rule, you can swap rows and columns with the idiom zip(*rows). Your code isn't quite constructed that way, but it would be trivial to change that.
# Your code, re-factored
results = zip(range(0, 201, 25), range(200, -1, -25))
# gives you a zip object that looks something like:
# # [ (0, 200), (25, 175), (50, 150), ..., (200, 0) ]
# you could duplicate your output with:
# # for pair in results:
# #    print(*pair)
# N.B. this would exhaust the zip object so you couldn't
# use it below without re-calculating results = zip(range(...
swapped_results = zip(*results)
# # [ (0, 25, 50, ..., 200), (200, 175, 150, ..., 0) ]
for row in swapped_results:
# 0 25 50 75 100 125 150 175 200
# 200 175 150 125 100 75 50 25 0

ren!” She cried. “Make it stop! You have to calm yourself!”
“But this is your fault? Don’t you see?” His voice roared. “If you hadn’t tried to take my picture for the newspaper none of this would have happened!”
She looked confused for a moment. “What are you even talking about? I didn’t want to take your picture for the newspaper…I wanted OUR picture in the newspaper…together. Because I liked you and wanted people to see us together! That’s all!”
Mitren looked confused. “But you said…you said you wanted to get the picture for the papers. To profit off of me.” As he spoke the anger began to slide away, and with each passing moment the fury around him dwindled.
“No….no. That’s not what I meant at all. You totally misunderstood me.” Tears streamed down her face. “All this destruction, all the destruction happening all over the world…is because of me? Because you misunderstood me? Because you got angry with me??”
Mitren’s world came to a stop. “Oh god what have I done?”
He closed his eyes and began the calming count…
Hey, hey, hey. Nice story Carrie. A weather god. Great writing. Nicely paced story. One typo, ‘…with a rendering of the very fabric of the world.’ Cool message. I hope this story of a minor misunderstanding wasn’t inspired by me in any way.
lol no, definitely not – I saw a writing prompt several months ago about a person who’s emotions affect the world around them and this was the perfect excuse to use it!
This is why someone emotional should never control anything as powerful as weather. Nice story, the misunderstanding that ruined the world. I liked your characterization of Mitren, a bit bratty, a bit sad and lonely. I could feel the tension from the beginning until that fool realized his mistake and began that countdown. I really enjoyed it.
A very visual story, Carrie, which packs a punch. Could almost see it as a graphic novel.
Though actually, I see it as really being all symbolic and a modern-day parable. You see, there’s this guy who’s really incredibly powerful and wants to be loved, and especially he wants to be loved by the person with the camera – who represents the media – but is obsessed about not being portrayed well through the lens of the camera (media), and he’s got this terribly bad petulant temper, and because he is so all powerful he can destroy everyone and everything, and ends up destroying people dear to the people he wants to love him …. And he even talks in capital letters: “…I’ve had a BAD DAY!!!”
And this guy could really do with having a ‘calming count’ in his locker …
Good story. If only we could all see what cause and effect we have on the world around us. We may not be king of the weather, but what we do can have just as much impact as the main character in this story. And yes usually do to misunderstandings.
would like to have seen a bit more about the night photography in the story, you did have several more words this go round.

“Why am I here, Alvin?” asked his friend James.
“Can’t I ask my best friend over for dinner once in blue moon?”
“Of course and I appreciate the beef bourguignon but there’s something on your mind. I can feel you trying to start a conversation but something’s holding you back.”
“You remember that job I took on Nocturne?”
Yeah, I remember. I’m still amazed you took it.”
Alvin had always been afraid of the dark. As a child he’d slept with the lights on until he was in his late teens. People who knew him, as well as Alvin himself, thought it was ironic that he had become famous as a photographer who specialized in images taken in the night. That was his thought when the door enunciator chimed, announcing a visitor. His visitor offered a singular opportunity, to photograph new planetary system. It was located deep inside a nebula, the gasses and dust blocking much of the light of all but the most brightest stars, making the night sky on the new world almost lightless.
“So was I at the time. I never imagined I’d go to someplace like that but it was a once in two life times kind of thing. Not to mention the way the value of my work skyrocketed after I got back.”
“Ok, so what has that got to do with anything?”
“I want you to look at some photos I took there, ones I never released.”
Alvin was an old fashioned photographer, eschewing the most modern digital imaging systems for lens, shutter, and film. James had to wonder what kind of images his friend had kept and why. His curiosity was soon satisfied. Alvin went into his darkroom and returned with a photo album
“I haven’t shown these to anyone. I’m half afraid that they’ll be blank.”
With that cryptic remark Alvin opened the album and laid it on the table. At first glance the four large prints seemed to be nothing but blackness but as he watched an image seemed to emerge. Tangled vegetation, darker black against a black velvet background at first, then something that made James draw back and gasp quietly.
“I thought you didn’t do holograms?”
“Then how is that picture moving?”
“Because she’s living in it.”
James’ look of bewilderment prompted Alvin to explain. As he did, his mind drifted back twenty years to the world called Nocturne. There was a clearing deep in the local forest that the people living there talked about in almost mystical terms. The talked about a presence, a feeling of someone, or something, unseen but undeniably there. As the velvety darkness of Nocturne’s starless night closed in that changed. The sense of presence grew stronger until he kept looking around, certain he was not alone.
He couldn’t localize the sensation so he started taking photos using the combination of filters and infrared and ultraviolet light sources he had devised for such work. The instant he activated the light bank, the sensation changed and something moved in the zone of its illumination. He’d frozen, not sure whether to be frightened or fascinated. While he stood motionless a strange voice came to him. It was as if a thousand people were whispering in unison.
“You ssseeeee meeee. Hoowww?”
“A combination of special lights,” Alvin replied, too stunned to do anything else.
“Humannnnnnn, what are yyoouu dooooinnnggg?”
“Taking pictures, making images of this place.”
“And somehow she came in one of your snapshots? That’s impossible.”
“I agree, but she did it. I get the feeling she’s not three dimensional as we are and can inhabit any flat plane, but she can also move in three dimensional space. I actually had no idea until my last night on Nocturne. Just as I was about to pack up she asked me to take her picture. I snapped the picture and she was suddenly gone. I thought she’d just left until I developed the roll and there she was. She wanted to travel with me, to see new places. So I brought her with me and
