Over its run, countless heroes and villains have come and gone from Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., some currently MIA and many others losing their lives along the way, never to be seen again. As the show marches towards the final arc of its fourth season – the Agents of HYDRA arc – the time is ripe for many familiar faces from the past to resurface thanks to the existence of the Framework.
Putting aside missing characters from the current season that we’ll likely see again before it’s over, like Ghost Rider, let’s take a spoiler-filled look back over the first three seasons to sort out which characters deserve a Framework-related resurrection or a long overdue reemergence in the present day just in case this is the show’s final run.

haw. or.nted.d.  T I certiorari could not be granted in this instance.
Although both interlocutory appeals and certiorari are prohibited in criminal proceedings, parties are not without remedy, as criminal decisions can be appealed. However, restricting the availability of remedies to appeal will not necessarily shorten or make the criminal process more efficient in any substantial way. Instead, the entire case has to be completed and a decision rendered before an appeal can be sought. In such an event, the length and cost of the proceeding increases for both the Crown and the accused. While a particular burden is placed on a person who is appealing their conviction, appeals also tax the Crown operating under the time constraints imposed by Jordan.
Although in this case the Crown was seeking certiorari against an order to provide disclosure, it is certainly conceivable that a trial judge might make an order that would work against the accused. But according to the SCC, the accused would not be able to apply for certiorari against the interlocutory order, and would have to seek relief by appealing their conviction if they felt the error in law effectedit does not seem to be more efficient to prevent an accused person from seeking certiorari against an erroneous order. Nor is it in the public interest to restrict the Crown from seeking certiorari against an order made on the basis of an error in law, especially if that error is one thatCertiorari might increase the lengths of proceedings at the trial level, but if the error in law made by the trial judge cannot be addressed as it arises, the alternative is that both parties must continue the proceedings and potentially appeal the decision on the basis of the error in law.
While certiorari may delay criminal proceedings, prohibiting the granting of certiorari prevents the opportunity for parties to seek relief against orders made that interfere with the rights of individuals and the fairness of proceedings. Although relief is available upon appeal when there is an error of law made by the trial judge, it raises the issue of whether the decision to prohibit certiorari will actually reduce the length and cost of proceedings. Even though the interlocutory proceedings have the impact of lengthening criminal proceedings, one has to question the impact that this decision may have on the perception of the criminal justice system when interlocutory relief cannot be granted against errors of law.

New York anti-harassment laws are among the most well-known in the United States. If you work for or manage a company in New York state, you are probably well acquainted with them. As of this year, however, state legislature introduced some big changes to the previous anti-harassment training standards. The 2019 New York Budget Law requires a new, stricter model for workplace anti-harassment training that all employees must undergo. In this blog post, we review the existing law and the new additions alike to make sure that you’re up to date.

Josh M. rates teachers
An article titled "Judgement Day" in the Sunday, 9-21 issue of New York Times magazine talks about how online "student ratings are becoming an influential factor in academic promotions."
Like anyone, I've had outstanding, good and terrible teachers. Here are my ratings and comments:
Diane Cusic, 1st grade
She of the bouffant hairdo and Jackie Kennedy whisper-voice, Mrs. Cusic was my first true love, and I would have married her if I'd been 3 feet taller. She never asked and I never explained why I couldn't speak in her presence, or why I couldn't eat in front of her. A+
Joan Weinstein, 2nd grade
Margaret Hamilton circa 1939 lookalike, soundalike, talkalike, walkalike. Made careful list over several weeks of all the things I'd done wrong in anticipation o.
Me, second grade
Among other transgressions, I wandered into the bathroom during a lesson, took off all my clothes sang into the mirror for 20 minutes. A conference was called, and Weinstein's list was produced.
My father looked at it and asked, "Where is the list of things he does right?" which evoked a look similar to Ralph Kramden's when asked "Who is the author of 'Swanee River?'" on "The $99,000 answer."
Mrs. Weinstein also tortured Ross Lipton, who'd been purposely, absent-mindedly dribbling spit into one of his workbooks during a lesson. She loomed over Lipton, 7 years old, and demanded he spit and spit and spit.
"I don't hafta!" Lipton cried, meaning his mouth was now dry. Mrs. Weinstein did not relent.
Damn, I still remember her witchy face. (shiver)
F-, with 5 lines under it.
Marcia Neighbors, 3rd grade
The first to encourage my writing, which resulted in "Blinkertoo The Mouse". Invited me over to her house to swim in her pool, too, and she was one of the few adults I completely trusted not to take me in the woods and kill me. Tall, regal, one of the most liked teachers in the school and one who never gave me the slightest amount of grief for anything---and she easily could have. A+
Richard Devir, 4th grade
Played a mesmerizing "Alice's Restaurant" on a nylon-string guitar. Bought pizza for students. Didn't stop Darryl Tinsley from hitting me in the mouth or do anything about it after the blow. Shoved tables into impossible, unruly students. Refused to discuss class or any of its students when contacted years later for "Confessions of an ex-seeker." C-
Lois Burke, 6th grade
One of the worst, she called me "just a bouncing ball of blubber," and "two-ton". I was 4'11, 121 pounds and by that time, almost completely silent in school, making note of how few words I could actually get away with during the course of the day. I counted 9 once, my all-time low. The 9 were:
Burke sent me to the Principal's office for possessing a copy of Abby Hoffman's "Steal This Book", which described how to gyp the phone company, shoplift, grow marijuana and make molotov cocktails, among other things.
My father---again---came to the school for a conference.
He was asked, "Do you know your son is reading this?"
Before "reading this?" was out of the Principal's mouth, Dad replied, "He can read any goddamn thing he wants to."
(When going through my father's wallet, retrieved from a pair of his pants on the floor of his apartment after they'd taken his body away, I found his crumpled Bill of Rights. In the last year of his life, he would whip it out and recite from it when someone tried to tell him what he could and could not say. The man did fly 38 missions over Normandy, Belgium, Germany and France, after all.)
Mrs. Burke: D
Richard Heinhold, 8th grade
Gave me an "A" for writing a riff on Poe's "The Tell-Tale Heart" (after verifying that I'd written the essay myself) told from the point of view of one of the policemen. May have had writer aspirations of his own, as indicated by patches on elbows of tweed coat and moustache and beard.
Sent me to Principal's office when I punched Geoff Ryder in the chest for screaming "Jew!" after seeing me pick up a penny I'd dropped. When confronted by my father later that night after he'd been notified I'd been suspended, I told him what had happened.
"Next time hit him in the mouth," my father said.
Mr. Heinhold's nickname was "Mr. Heinie-hole".
Heinhold: B
Dad: A+
Robert Laub, 11th grade
All-time best teacher award. Gave me A-pluses for first-person, stream-of-consciousness prose, lyrics and poetry. Came to one of my public performances; I was shocked to see him drink a beer. A+

China has an excellent sleeper train system, and Kat and Tom made full use of it, catching a total of 5 within the 3 weeks we were there! The first was to Xi’an, mainly to see the Terracotta Warriors, which are a one hour bus ride away from the city itself, and simple to organise on your own – you definitely don’t need to do a tour – we weren’t making the same mistake again after the Great Wall. Hiring bikes to cycle along the old city walls was an excellent introduction to the city, and helped blow out the lungs from the ever present smog.


By Elder Delbert L. Stapley (1896–1978)
Teaching Righteousness at Home10490_000_016
Parents have an opportunity to teach and mold the characters of their little children before Satan has the power to tempt them and before they reach the age of eight, becoming then responsible before God. … The Lord has granted parents these precious years, the first years of a child’s life, when the children are not accountable for the things they say and do. It is a responsibility and blessing parents have to teach and train their children to live righteously.
The most effective way to teach righteousness and religion in a home is by example. Hopefully, parents will have kept their own lives sweet and clean and can therefore profitably use the example of their lives in the teaching and training of their own children. [President David O. McKay (1873–1970) taught:] “If you would teach faith in God, show faith in Him yourself; if you would teach prayer, pray yourself; … would you have them temperate, then you yourself refrain from intemperance; if you would have your child live a life of virtue, of self-control, of good report, then set him a worthy example in all these things.”1 To do so will make these teachings more impressive to your children; and they, receiving such guidance from parents, can fortify themselves against the temptations of Satan, whose goal is to destroy their lives when they do reach the age of accountability. Parents have the duty to be what they would have their children become in regard to courtesy, sincerity, temperance, and courage to do right at all times. Example is far more potent than precept.
 Sometimes quarrels arise out of an attempt to correct or discipline a child. One parent criticizes; the other objects. And the unified influence of the home, so far as the child is concerned, is nullified. Parents need to be united in knowing which way they want a child to go; otherwise, he may walk in wrong paths out of confusion. Richard L. Evans said: “Division between parents is unfair and confusing and weakens the foundations of the family. Those to whom a child should look for guidance must be united in the guidance they give.”2 We know that children are sensitive to family moods and feelings; they can feel tensions and differences that they can’t always understand or define. …

There are several musical forms of the Caribbean islands featured in the Carnival. Calypso is the oldest of these and is often reported to have begun as a way for slaves to communicate in the fields. Steel drum music began when hammered steel pans cut out from oil drums replaced traditional bamboo percussion instruments. Soca is an indigenous musical form that combines the slower beat of American soul music to an upbeat calypso tempo.

5 Ways to organise a tiny bedroom
This one's a no-brainer: if you have underbed space, make use of it! The space underneath your bed is great for things you don’t need on a regular basis, such as out-of-season clothes or sentimental knick knacks you just can’t bear to throw away. Keep them in clear boxes so that you know what’s in them.
We’re firm believers of the capsule wardrobe: a highly edited collection of clothes that’s updated every season. Besides that, it’s also a great idea to take stock of what you have at the end of each season and throw out everything that hasn’t worked for you. Doing it at the end of a season is a better way of determining if you’ll get any wear out of an item in the future, as opposed to pre-season edits.

Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice stung Anthony Davis over comments the San Francisco 49ers guard made about their college coach, Greg Schiano. Davis signed a seven-year contract extension worth nearly $37 million last week. After inking the lucrative deal, Davis slammed current Bucs head man Schiano, who coached him at Rutgers. "Schiano didn't do s—," Davis told NFL Draft Bible. "He like, breaks your confidence down. That's his idea of molding guys, by breaking their confidence down. But really, without confidence, you've got a s— team. And I feel like, what he's doing, I thought it was because I was young and I just didn't appreciate what he was doing, but now that I'm a little older, I just realize that his plan is not working. And I think he's going to start finding that out soon enough." One week later, Davis' former teammate Ray Rice defended Schiano and said that the Niners guard was "just talking freely." "I don't think that when you're that good of a player, that a coach has to develop you," Rice told FOXSports.com in an interview at a Call of Duty Grudge Match event in Santa Monica. "You almost end up developing yourself and he's a great player. There's a reason why you sign an extension and not have to wait for too long, a team thinks that highly of you." Schiano is known for structure and discipline. He puts the accountability on the players' shoulders and is a big believer in doing things the right way. "Anthony Davis was just speaking out freely on how he felt, but I know coach Schiano is a great person and he's a great family man," Rice said. "That's what we stood by at Rutgers. They'll both continue to have great careers. "I don't think there's any hate or anything involved, I just think Anthony Davis has found himself."


Our story is a bit different than most ESI contributors, as we are not millionaires by virtue of our investments.
My wife and I chose to have her stay home with our kids throughout our time with the military.
At the time we left the military, my annual compensation was around $150K.
Given our annual expenses, we were FI after leaving the military, bringing in a pension of $65K and full medical coverage, which I consider to have an annual value of $12-15K for our family’s plan.
After not finding much fulfillment in the work that I was doing as a contractor, I began to do more and more financial coaching on the side, which I had done to some extent for years while in the service (after our lightbulb moment and getting our own financial house in order). As I began to find more and more fulfillment from helping others with their financial journeys, and less and less from my well-paying contractor gig, I learned more about the financial independence movement and quickly realized that we were already FI.
Shortly after, I transitioned to part-time employment for a short period of time to test the waters a bit, and then a few months later left paid employment all together.
The first step we took was to take a much closer look at our spending to determine how we really wanted our lifestyle to look.
We had been on a monthly spending plan for awhile but hadn’t really looked at the true value of what we were spending on.
I value our pension and medical coverage to be worth the equivalent of $2.0-2.3M (the equivalents of a 3-4% withdrawal rate from investments) but don’t include this in our net worth number.
Once we had a good idea of what we believed our spending and desires might look like for each phase, we then determined that our finances, including insurance coverages, would support our plans.
After going through our financial plans, my primary concern became non-financial, determining how I would spend my time after working full-time for 20+ years.
Knowing that I would be unable to sit idle at the age of 43, there was some initial uncertainty of what projects would fill the time and desire for continued challenges.
Fortunately, our family health care plan was covered following military retirement.
Severed part-time employment after several months of testing the financial and non-financial waters.
A phased approach really made all the difference.
First, doing our homework on spending plans and going through the spending priorities drill before going part-time provided the confidence to start the journey.
Lastly, beginning new projects (writing, nonprofit, etc.) while on part-time provided the reassurance that I would have no problem filling my time with new and exciting ventures once severing traditional employment ties.
Still going great two years later. Published the book that I had started while part-time and continue to do a good amount of nonprofit work.
Reading books and blogs and listening to various podcasts, always on the lookout for new material that I can incorporate into future book revisions book and/or speaking presentations.
Considering doing some part-time flying that focuses on supporting the training of military servicemembers.
The position would allow a high level of scheduling flexibility, scratch a growing itch to get back into some flying and provide an additional source of purposeful work.
Continue to pursue challenging and fulfilling projects, through both volunteer and highly flexible paid opportunities, until our youngest graduates and we become empty nesters.
Estimates have been fairly accurate, other than the popups, which were generally expected.
Paid gigs have provided an extra pad that while not necessary are a welcomed addition for further investing and giving.
Both categories are covered by pension income, with no immediate plans to tap retirement accounts, rather allowing them to continue to grow for my wife upon my passing in addition to term-life policies.
The focus on the financial aspect certainly needs to be there, but the non-financial side is just as important. I have seen far too many folks hit retirement with no plans other than travel, which can become less fulfilling after awhile.
Also, continue to share your lessons learned with those in younger generations to enable them to do even better.
Thank you for sharing your story. I’ll retire in five years as an O5 with 28 years of service and I plan to work very part-time (vacation spending). I sometimes doubt my numbers but your story helps me to see my numbers are doable.
Congratulations on your successful transition into greater freedom and autonomy. From a societal perspective, I like knowing there are active, curious and capable folks out there with a lot left to give who have the financial and time freedom to figure out how best to do so.
I think the value of defined benefit pensions, especially when backed by constitutional guarantees as some state and local public pension are, is hard to overstate.
It’s not just that there’s this reliable stream of income arriving, as though an RMD from a huge corpus, the size of which is out of all proportion to what’s been paid into it by the beneficiary. There’s also the fact that, as compared to an equal-sized corpus held in a private account, there is no sequence of withdraw risk. And the pension beneficiary, even though the overall pension fund is invested in all manner of risky assets in order to approach its assumed rate of return (e.g., 6-8%), can treat the discounted present value of the benefit as the fixed asset portion of his or her overall portfolio, and so stay 100% in stocks in other accounts, for example, even into advanced age.
Throw in health care (a very big throw-in) and, as here, you can see folks who’ve played their cards right- even those raising families -retiring in their 40s without the need for outsized incomes along the way.
Congrats and thanks for your service.
Exactly my situation via a defined benefit pension. Career public educator able to draw a pension at 53 this year. I have transitioned into a new role at significantly less pay and responsibility which I will do for a 2-3 years while I pay off the house. No other debt. Appreciate your thoughts above as you have laid out the same plan I have.
Great comments on the sequence of return risk vis a vis a defined benefit pension and the ability to stay invested in equities up to 100% longer than reasonable without the pension. Appreciate your thoughts and comments as I plan to do just what you lay out.
I’m an O4, just past halfway to retirement and have been following the FI movement for the past 6 years. I peruse a number of military focused blogs, but many push developing side hustles to supplement retirement income, so it is really great to read about someone that truly was able to retire by saving, investing, and living within their means.
I’d be interested to know how you navigated the decision to take SBP or not. It will be a big decision that could really impact the amount of take home retirement income and it is alwayshow the decision was made.
Congrats on being retired and thanks for your time!
Great post! Also retired early after a military career but worked for another six years after thirty plus years of service.
Retiring early is great as long as you have the financial and non-financial issues worked out. I miss the service but found much of my work after that unfulfilling.
F Highly recommend this course for military retirees and all of us interested in FI as soon as possible. Plan well, retire early, and do your own thing.
– i can see the net worth calc includes education savings. I assume this is for kids college. The true investments that you can get a return on are the $180k retirement accounts and $30k cash.
Yes, we spend a fair amount of time sharing mistakes made and lessons learned with all of our children, especially those at or nearing adulthood. Our goal is for them to each so much better than we did. All of them are also aware of the price paid while serving to earn our defined-benefit pension (deployments, risk, many friends lost, lack of choice in location, etc). Lastly, while not spending the majority of my time doing compensated work, they all see me continuing to work on various volunteer projects, as it’s important to us that FI be their goal for the purposes of having choice and the ability to continue impactful work, even if unpaid, rather than just simply staying at home.
Our position and annual spending allows us to live entirely off the pension income , with the investment income solely there to grow to offset term life needs for my spouse upon my passing. You are correct in the fact that a good portion of the college savings is earmarked for our children’s’ education. That said, this is one area that we over-prepared for given that at least two of our four children will have their education covered with the GI Bill through their choice to serve in the military. We will very likely not end up using half or more of their ESAs for college, converting a portion to our children’s’ use for eventual home down payments and some to our own investments.
@Just Past Mid-Career – Regarding your question on SBP, my wife and I elected not to go that route. Given the rather high cost (6.5% of the base amount for 30 years), I instead secured multiple term life policies for less than half the cost. Our term policies have staggered terms, when combined with conservative estimates on our investments, ensure that my spouse will be well taken care of given various stages of life. That said, for many servicemembers that either aren’t insurable, don’t have investments that will grow to offset life insurance needs, or simply are not comfortable with the associated risk, then SBP is certainly a viable option to provide for loved ones.
The current plan is to also decline the SBP and use term life insurance as well as our investments to secure the family’s need in case something would shorten the time I spend soaking in the pension. I’ve got a few more years to really solidify the plan though.
It’s too bad they don’t I’m going to guess you didn’t’s a bell went off and you figured it out? I always thought when you got a pension with a value based on years of service, regardless of age, you couldn’t start collecting it till 65, or so, like social security. I figured this out in my 30’s when it was too late.
Gary – thank you for sharing. I was vaguely aware of the pension and medical benefits when I started thinking about going into military service, but I gave it almost no consideration at the time. For one thing, I had no aspirations of staying in the 20 years required to qualify when I first went. That’s a tough obstacle for young adults to consider when 20 years seems like an eternity. However, the other reason that I gave these benefits little to no consideration was due to the fact that no one had explained the value of them to me (the ability to begin collecting in one’s late 30s/early 40s, the ability to be financially independent between the pension and medical, and, most importantly, the true value of these – easily worth $2-3M). That all said, while certainly a consideration, I would of course not recommend a young adult entertain the decision to join our armed forces based upon the financial aspect alone.
F’t ons!


MIT turns self-financed varsity, degrees from 2019
PUBLISH DATE 23rd March 2017
http://tinyurl.com/y39v7ec5
The state legislative assembly on Wednesday pas sed a bill to set up Dr Vish wanath Ka rad MIT World Peace University , a self-financed institution, in Kothrud.
Students from the MIT group of institutes will get certificates and degrees from this university from 2018-19. Other students on the campus who have enrolled earlier will get a certificate from Savitribai Phule Pune University .
Rahul Karad, vice-presi dent of the MIT group of institutes, called it a futuristic move. "Only autonomy will increase competition among institutes which employability of students," he added.
Mangesh Karad, secretary and trustee of MIT group of Institutes, said the existing facility in Kothrud will be the main campus of the new university .
"We had sent the proposal two years ago. Once the working of the new university starts, students enrolling that year will get certificates from it at the time of gradua ting. The rest will get a certificate from SPPU," he added.
The posts of the vice chancellor and others will be filled after following due process after advertising and selecting the best candidate.
The admissions next year will still be governed by SPPU norms.
"We will introduce new courses keeping in mind the latest trends in the world and industry . We will also introduce exchange programmes with foreign universities so that students can study some semesters here and some se mesters abroad," Rahul Karad said.
MIT will have to give better quality education and facilities to students so that they choose it over the old and established universities, he added.
"We will have autonomy to plan our own syllabus and examination pattern. Results will be declared on time and we will be completely responsible for our students.All this needs preparation.We will get the groundwork done for a smooth transition from 2018-19," Karad added.
No burden on state exchequer
The government's efforts are to encourage the formation of self-financed universities so that there is no financial burden on the state exchequer. There will be minimum regulatory interference in their formation and functioning by the government. However, the government will retain its supervisory and regulatory powers so that the process of encouraging growth in infrastructure facilities and academic requirement does not create hurdles in education of under privileged sections of the society and allows mismanagement, which is detrimental to public interest or general education policy of the government, education minister Vinod Tawde told the House after it passed the Bill for the university in Pune.

How The Fund Started
Their recommendations were adopted four months later. The Seventh-Day Adventist Church in Australia started its own private health fund for employees. They named it Union Conference Medical Policy Fund.
Married workers contributed 6d (sixpence) each week, and single workers 3d (threepenny). If you wanted health cover to include your parents or siblings, you had to pay 6d whether married or single. If you needed hospital treatment, the fund covered 50% of medical bills – up to the value of £20 (pounds) annually.
You couldn’t send a claim to the health fund unless the bill was more than £2.2s (two pounds, two shillings). Back then you could not claim for obstetrics, dentistry, tubercular-related illness, mental illness or chronic illness. Very limited benefits compared with today’s generous Fund.
The health fund existed only for workers in conferences, intuitions, mission fields and student workers. The organisation employing the worker would subsidise the fund to an amount equal to what the worker contributed to the fund.
ACA Health Benefits Fund (ACAHBF) was formed in August 1971. For 10 years, from 1976-1986, ACA wasn’t registered with the Australian Government as there appeared no advantage in doing so. The decision was made in April 1986 to re-register. In part to provide a ‘continuation of entitlement’ when employees transferred to other health funds when they left church employment.
A lot has changed since those early days. Today ACA Health Benefits Fund provides private health cover of exceptional value and great choice for current and past employees of the Adventist church, and their families.
The SDA c church, to help the c. This is why ACA hasas well – not just immediate family.

Delicious food, wonderful staff, clean place, very reasonable. What more could you ask!!
Seated in a dirty booth; my husband's beer was flat; my mojito was sour (they forgot the simple syrup); courteous waitress served our food but no silverware, so I asked for some and then she brought them to another table near us, so I got up and asked the bartender for some rather than wait for to come back on her next round. The food was not that good. We won't be back.

Long before muslims and the quran - christians were killing people in the name of the lord, burning "witches" at the stake, blah blah blah
by all means, lets bring back coliseums/colosseum and the lions too.
And Iris, in response to your question to Michelle, I grew up around a lot of Muslims, in Africa. I had many Muslim friends. I see a lot to respect and even imitate in their faith. I admire the devotion many of them had to seeking God and seeking truth. It's something I see lacking in a lot of Christians. Although I do believe there is only one way to God, I also believe that every belief system (except maybe satanism) has it's positives and things we can learn from it. And we should respect people and their beliefs, whether we happen to agree with them or not.

Sigh. How ridiculous. Islam did not incite 9/11, fanatical terrorists did. There are fanatics in every religion. Those who take it too far. These christians are ignorant and are just going to make things worse. As a christian myself, I think these guys are embarrassing.
Absolutely disgusting. The Quran is not the problem, the Muslim religion is not the problem.....it's finatics like this asshole that are the problem!

Unfortunately, severe budget constraints forced the UCSD to drop the program in summer of 2013. The Office for New Americans, through Mohawk Valley Resource Center for Refugees, took over the NCP in July 2013, but could only provide one instructor. Thus, the students were split between the Newcomer Program and the Adult Literacy Center. Students aged 17-19 attend the Newcomer Program and the 20 year old students attend the Adult Learning Center.
Dana Hubbard, the Administrator of the Newcomer Program and the Project Coordinator of the Office for New Americans will present the story of the successes and struggles of these children and their journey to obtaining an education in their new country.

"We were making cheese, yoghurt and butter. There was always something to do," remembers Garabet Orunüz, who spent his youth in the camp. "This was our home, and we were doing everything with our love. We were enjoying it."
"We didn't give the park, and we won't give our school!", is written on one of the banners, in a clear link to the Gezi Park resistance that kicked off in Istanbul two years earlier. The occupiers claim they have learned a lot from the Gezi resistance, in terms of organization, tactics and solidarity. Özgür Atlagan, one of the activists, explains: "We reacted so quickly because of the experience that we acquired during Gezi. Everything we do here, cooking, cleaning, organizing forums, they are the habits that we learned in the park."
"The genocide continues!"
"The genocide continues!" reads one of the largest banners hanging from the school's walls. Just two weeks before the occupation of Camp Armen started this very same banner was used by the activists of Nor Zartonk at the 100th commemoration of the Armenian genocide. When Alexis Kalk, a founding member of the organization, was asked by one of his comrades which banner to bring to the school site, he only thought for one second before replying: "the one about the genocide!'
"For us, the Armenians who live in Turkey, the genocide really continua genocide; economic pressure; cultural degradation; forced assimilation. This country has never been punished for the crimes it committed, and so it doesn't hesitate to repeat them again."
Garabet Orunüz, the old student of the school couldn't agree more. In his view the closure of the school back in 1983 was part of what he calls a 'cultural genocide'. "What was the place for us?Our home. What were we learning from there?Our language, our religion, our culture. So, when they close this place they deprived us of all these things. This is a cultural genocide."

These interactions are not limited to the emission sources and mitigation measures adopted. There are interactions in the atmosphere which affect impacts on radiative forcing (warming or cooling of the atmosphere) and also interactions related primarily to impacts on human health and ecosystems, the latter which can produce feedbacks that enhance both the extent and the rate of onset of climate change.


When Han Solo (Harrison Ford) agrees to charter them to Alderaan, Luke scoffs at the sight of the Millennium Falcon. When they're fleeing Tattooine and a dashboard indicator lights up and beeps, Luke asks, 'What's that?
What we learn throughout all this is Luke reallyto handle to it all. He's ill-equipped, and enthusiasm isn't going to get him anywhere. This adds to the excitement and tension. How will he cope with what's out there?
On Kylo's ship, she Force-rebukes Kylo's attempts to probe her mind, then influences the mind of a Stormtrooper (Daniel Craig) to release her. How?
The Force Awakens treats Han Solo's death almost purely as a marketing ploy. Snoke (Andy Serkis) tasks Kylo with killing his father as a rite of passage. It's meant to build Kylo up – both in the story, and in the eyes of the audience. Let's hate him!He killed a beloved character!
But if that's the case, then this whole universe becomes redundant because if there's no ultimate objective, who cares?
Despite Luke's best efforts, he is vulnerable. Despite his Force-potential, he really can only grasp at the fringes of it. We understand he's begun his journey with the Force, but he has a long, long, long way to go, whereas Rey has already exhibited Force mastery in different areas and defeated the story's antagonist. Where is her journey?Where is her growth?What is the story's arc?


British Columbia pro-family group exposes gay agenda behind Surrey ‘Safe Schools’ program
Tue Sep 24, 2013 - 2:58 pm EDT Sat Jun 19, 2021 - 11:41 am EDT
“In summary, the regulation has the goal ofschool communities and theirlife,” BCPTL quotes Wilson as stating.
BCPTL identifies what they say are numerous troubling aspects of the new regulations, including mandatory indoctrination of teachers and parents, and coercive measures against those who don't comply; deceptive language in the regulations; and allowing only information and resources that are biased toward a positive portrayal of homosexuality in order to “eliminate a heterocentric bias.”
The report quotes a statement attributed to the school board vice-chairman, Laurie Larsen, who said the regulation, “…mandates training for teachers, support for GSAs [gay-straight alliances], specialized counsellor training and inclusion of supportive books in libraries and curriculum, among other measures.”
“It will not be a matter of taking one’s children out of school when sensitive matters are discussed,” the pro-family group said. “This indoctrination will occur anywhere in the school program, and from kindergarten to Grade Twelve.”
The result of this program, BCPTL points out, will be that students will be taught to question their own sexual orientation, to admire homosexual heroes, to regard homosexual unions as equivalent to traditional marriage, and to despise religious teaching that prohibits homosexual behavior.
“Parents, it is time to take action to protect your children before it is too late,” the BCPTL concludes. “Unless we act, our children will be put at risk psychologically, emotionally, and physically.”

Hi all :) Looking for a place to call home have just been living in brisbane working up there . Felt it time for a change . Looking for a home that is quiet to study and with people who like a chat now and again or to share in a meal and just someone or those who are easy going in the respect of being happy and approachable I'll be working and studying just looking to get settled .I have a beautiful girl cat she is well behaved ..like her mum:) she is inquisitive so she likes to explore out around her surroundings .she's mostly oudoors. Part of her exploring nature .(like her mum too..) but will pop herself inside at night to snuggle up on my bed. If you can't already guess she's extremely special to me.so hopefully where I go my Willow goes too:)would be a good fit .Looking forward to a chat :) thanks all.
We both are international students Griffith University and prefer staying to ourselves so we are looking for a neat and clean place and promise to keep it that way. We are not party people but once in a while have few friends over for tea or study. we are looking for a studio apartment, granny flat or one bed room flat.
Hi, I'm Tom 22 years old, looking for somewhere to move in immediately as I'm moving up from Melbourne this weekend. I work at Gold Coast race track. riding race horses. I am clean, well mannered and easy to get along with.. Thanks and look forward to hearing from you.
Heyy! Just putting the feelers out if anyone has a room with own bathroom & also space for 2 cars and some stuff as well ( bikes, some small furniture ) OR wants to team up for a big house :) Sadly our current landlord is selling our beautiful apartment. We have been renting here for 2 years and have impeccable references & rental paying history. I work in tourism & photography and Jonas works as a carpet/floor layer & his second home is the gym. We are very early risers so a household who wont stay up late would best suit us. (Once you hit 30's its all over :D ) we are used to living alone in a 2 bedroom apartment, we would not want to share with more than 2 people max and would like a decent size room. Flexible with the area & move in date, but has to be before 16th of May. We are friendly & happy couple, don't fight and keep to ourselves, but don't mind socialising as well on our days off. We love animals so absolutely happy with pets! Bonus if you have one! Looking for a drama free place and easy going people only.
Hey guys, I'm currently working projects and as they are far and wide I have packed up my house for now. I'm very respectful and have worked all over the world as a rigger and rope access Tech. If you want I can take you abseiling from anything high in your area. I can enjoy a wine with yourself, I enjoy an occasional beer but I know all about personal and property boundaries. My girl friend works fifo as a helicopter rescue doctor and I'm often flying off to see her. Apart from that I just train and work. Looking forward to hearing from you.
(Accommodation for just me) Easy to live with, non smoker, no pets, cleans up after himself, considerate, I want a place thats quiet and friendly so I can just focus on work and study. I love the ocean and nature, bush-walking, hiking, climbing mountains, swimming, surfing and cycling. Iam financially supported by welfare, parents and I do uber eats on a bike for extra money. Studying Bachelor of Nursing at Griffith University. My partner who is also a nurse works in caboolture. Iam currently renting in Brisbane, going to move to the gold coast at the middle to end of May.
I work full time as a dental assistant. I have two beautiful rag doll cats, they are both clean, well behaved inside cats. I don't party/drink so love my quiet time. On my days off I like to chill on the beach or go for a hike/bike ride (love being outdoors). I am a clean freak and enjoy my place being clean and tidy. Looking for a room that is big enough to fit a king bed and preferably has an en-suite and own balcony so I can keep my cats in there. Ideal roomie has to like cats as they are my babies. Would be nice if they could Rome freely around the house also. Would also be interested in teaming up with someone.
I'm looking for a place to stay for around 3-6 months. I work nights and am very social, so spend most days doing stuff. I'm almost only ever home to eat and sleep but I would like to get to know the people I'm living with, whether it be in a sharehouse or whether it be the spare room in your home. I'm really neat and tidy (mild OCD) and always put rent before all other costs. I don't smoke. Working in hospitality it's almost impossible not to enjoy a drink every now and then.
I consider myself to be a simple, fun loving, mysterious yet a modest person with a friendly attitude & a positive mindset; try my best to keep in shape for whatever comes along. I believe in "Wishes are for Fantasies; Fantasies are for Dreaming; & Dreams are for Living".
I'm from Switzerland and I speak Italian, I would like meet new people from differents countries. I would rather speak only english for improve it. I'm frendly, clean, organized and respectful.


Chile’s desert, a source of clean energy
25 June 2021 | Chile, Renewable energies, Città Nuova
There are several solar power plants in experience that teaches us to look at the development of a territory in a different way.
Economic development also includes the notion of transforming the weaknesses of a region into strengths. This often depends on our ability to look at a region in this way and transform the disadvantages into sources of wealth. So, a lot depends on how we look at the region.
In addition to the mineral resources – which are considerable – what else could the Atacama Desert offer to development? It is the driest region of the world, an extensive area practically inhabited only along the coast. Impregnable, crossed by barren mountain ranges which become offshoots of the Andes. The desert is largely sterile to agriculture and expanding dangerously, given the scarcity of rain in northern Chile. But that’s just one way of looking at it. The high daytime temperatures and the intense solar radiation can be transformed into energy sources, and the whole desert could represent a new avant-garde frontier for the country.
This is what the builders of solar power plants have begun to think, which are multiplying with beneficial increases of renewable energy to the point that at certain times of the year the cost is virtually zero. The latest was inaugurated just a week ago. It is one of the largest solar thermal power plants ever built and located in in the middle of the desert at Cerro Dominador.
The new plant, the largest of its kind in Latin America, uses photovoltaic panels spread over an area of one thousand hectares, which reflect light and heat on a huge column 250 meters high that contains a saline solution. The overheating of these fluids is transmitted to a water deposit which, in turn, produces steam that sets a turbine in motion. The capacity is 210 Megawatts. It is estimated that at maximum power the plant can supply 382,000 homes on a constant basis. This avoids the emission of 630,000 tons of CO2 per year, equivalent to the exhaust gases of 135 cars in one year. The investment was 1.3 billion dollars and generated 1,500 jobs for the construction of 80 buildings and management of the plant.
The project is part of the plan to reduce carbon emissions compared to national energy needs, a plan that makes extensive use of wind, geothermal and solar energy, multiplying its potential by ten in the last six years. The current capacity of solar energy is about 2,700 megawatts, capable of covering about 11% of the country’s daily energy demand. The “leap” made towards renewable energies is based on the effort of about 200 power plants scattered throughout the territory, from wind power plants, which also continue to grow, to hydroelectric and geothermal sources. There are 31 solar power plants, many of which are already in operation while others finishing the development phase.
Overall, alternative renewable sources in Chile are currently covering 23% of energy demand, producing over 5,800 megawatts. The initial goal of reaching 2025 has therefore been exceeded, covering 20% of energy needs with non-conventional renewable energies. The energy plan currently in full development aims at the goal of obtaining 70% of the energy needed from clean sources in 2050, but the prospect is that by that date 100% of the energy used comes from alternative sources. Not only that, but Chile could become an exporter of energy produced from renewable sources.

As for the band linking up with a blockbuster movie, Cornell says, it's as clear a sign as any of the "new landscape." "[Licensing songs] has become kind of the cheap way that bands with any version of credibility have to get their songs out in front of people," he explains. "It used to be absolutely the forbidden fruit for any band – if you put your song in a commercial you were screwed. I've never felt like that was a no-no."

Q: How can I switch between using one class or another in AngularJS? I have the following code:
I would like to change the color of the SVG icon depending on if my ui-router state as follows:
*If the state does not include 'admin' I would like it to use the class blue-icon
I have done something like this before:
data-ng-class="{ current: $state.includes('admin') }"
But how can I make it switch between the two colors?
A: Something like this would be the simplest:
If it gets any more complicated than that then you might want to return an object, array or string from a controller method:
<i data-ng-class="iconStyle()"></i>
        'red-icon': $state.includes('admin'),
    if ($state.includes('admin')) {

Aaaaaahahahahaha! These remind me so much of the home design books my parents had when I was a kid… exact same vintage. I think my favorite is the catty-corner bed with the arbitrary plant behind it. Followed by the green prison cell. </s> I have had bipolar disorder since I was a child, but we only got the diagnosis when I was way older. My parents did not know understand why I was the way I was. For instance, there were times when I would just sit somewhere, close my eyes, not eat or talk to anyone for a long spell.
Even the doctors my parents took me to see had no idea what was causing my mood up and down swings. While in my first year of high school, I suffered depression. My heart would race and I could not concentrate in class. At night, I would lay awake in bed till morning and I didn’t have much of an appetite. No one was aware of the medical condition and my performance plummeted. I dropped from position two to 40 and I remember doctoring the report card to avoid admonishment.
While still in school, I contracted an STI from my first boyfriend. I thought I was going to die. That is when my bi-polar became full-blown. I would not talk to anyone. I became withdrawn and didn’t participate in class. The insomnia came back full blown and again, I didn’t eat food. This time, the changes were noted by the teachers and I was taken to Mathari Hospital and given antidepressants and other drugs to sort out the STI.
Years later, now out of school, I got pregnant. My boyfriend then, husband today, was supportive but I was unhappy about being an unwed mum.
I sunk into depression again. And attempted suicide a second time. I took a large number of pills and lay in bed waiting for death. My baby, who was then nine months old and lying nearby began bawling and since I couldn’t attend to him, it went on for such a long time that neighbours came to check what the problem was. They found me on the bed and I had to lie that I was just unwell. They took me to the hospital and my suicide mission was aborted.
In 2000, I lost my job and sunk into one of my funks. This one was so bad that my husband took me to hospital and that was when I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder. I was married then with three children.
I have since learnt to manage my condition. Usually, one oscillates between manic and depressive states. Manic is when you get hyper. One becomes extra-active, and gets a false sense of self-importance. There was a time I told everyone that I was going to the UK while in all honesty I had no passport to my name.
I have been on medication for close to two decades now, and the type depends on whether I am manic or depressive. We have a monthly budget of Sh20,000 just for my medication and doctor’s visits. Whenever I feel an impending attack of the manic or depressive state, I check myself into my local hospital for some injections, then I go about my life as usual.
I joined the support group  in 2013. This has helped me deal with the stigma that assaults sufferers especially

Regardless of the occasion, roses are always one of the most popular flowers, whether real or artificial because they offer an exquisitely curved and coy look. The Ling’s Moment company is actually one of the older ones on our list having been around for a little over a decade and style themselves as a high-end seller of top-quality artificial flowers and plantFor the Ling’s Moment roses, you not only get the best rose artificial flower, but you get a great value too.
Regardless of how you actually break it down, the Ling’s Moment roses are a stupendous value when compared to pretty much every other product on our list. While this is technicallyed, it does come with 50 different bulbs giving you plenty of room to do different things with them. In fact, it is expected that you will use the artificial flowers for a wide variety of purposes and their wire stem has been made so that they will pose easily and can be cut without much effort. Finally, the flowers are handmade of a latex foam that allows them to look and feel as close to the real thing as you can get.
JACKCSALE is an interesting company because it does not have that large of a market imprint, and as an only online business, this is even more surprising. That said, this still does not prevent the company from providing one of the most elaborate and ornate artificial flower arrangements that we saw. In fact, this is by far the best artificial flower bouquet that we came across and JACKCSALE is almost certain to have one that is perfect for your or a loved one’s wedding.
In fact, the only real downsides to this product are the cost, which understandable considering how much more elaborate it is than the other products on our list. Outside of that, some people did not seem to like how the rhinestone embellishments looked, but that is more a matter of personal taste than an out and out flaw. comes in 18 different styles and can even be customized if you get in contact with the company, something you can do through their Amazon store. Finally, this is also the largest artificial flower arrangement that we reviewed at 20” tall and a surprising 30” in diameter.
It can be a bit difficultactually owned by Heart to Heart Gifts Inc, but the fact remains that they produce a fairly high-quality product. That said, you can definitely see how the brand makes some missteps considering that they do not seem to specialize in much of anything at all. If there is a single underlying theme is might be home goods, but the Butterfly Craze lavender definitely presents a bit of a conundrum. Still, this is the best lavender artificial flower on our list.
Easily the best thing about the Duovlo is that it can be used for such a wide range of purposes depending on which one you choose. Out of the 20 different styles you have to choose from, the Duovlo comes in everything from a “dying” Victorian look to the complete, truncated rainbow of varying shades and hues of pink. There are even some bluer and purple options, but the remains that the complete arrangement combined with the sheer number of options allows this artificial flower to travel very well from event to event, though you should be careful as it is not UV protected.

This is likely due to the fact that En Ge specializes exclusively in artificial flowers, so they understand where they can stretch the limits and what needs to be top shape.
When it comes to the En GE tulips, you get what you pay for as the flowers themselves come in bundles of 10 and features some of the longest stems we saw at 13 ½”, though it should be noted that the bulbs are some the smallest, but that is by design.

So, I went to the doctor’s office today to go over my blood work results. Overall it was a great report. However, as I suspected, my A1c has gone up on point. I had been eating way too many sweets for about eight months.
My cholesterol, the thing that got all these tests started years ago, was completely normal. That’s a first in the last ten years. What an enormous improvement! I didn’t think I would ever reign in those numbers.
It would have been a perfect report had my A1c not gone up (1 point!). All the other markers the physician went over with me were completely normal.
Hopefully, this will be the case next time. I ensure a good report in the future. I haven’t been going to the gym a lot, but I am going. I have suspended any sweets and alcohol consumption. As I’ve said in my last blog post, I will be doing alternate day fasting for the next six weeks. I am down six pounds since I began.
I am already feeling a little better since cutting sugar and alcohol from my diet. That will not be a permanent thing (maybe for the drinking). When I’ve reached my objective, I will be able to enjoy an occasional sweet treat. My only physical issue is my back pain.
I have managed to make it through this first week of longer fasts by keeping busy. Being off from work is more challenging because I’m usually in the house. I will have to find things to do outside or house cleaning; anything.
I will be reporting any good news as it happens.

magnets and the practical application of magnetismfrom the magnetic levitation systems used in transportation and the magnetic resonance devices used in medicine to audio and video systems, personal computers, calculators, and doorbells.
Around 1895, the French physicist Pierre Curie established a clear distinction between paramagnetism, a property of those elements that acquire a weak magnetic charge of the same type as the field they are placed in, and dipposite to that of the induction field. Based on an observation William Gilbert had made three hundred years earlier, Curie identified a rise in temperature as the characteristic that signaled a change from ferrostrong magnetic charge of the same type as that of the induction field, to paramagnetism, and he discovered that each substance has its own critical temperature point beyond which it loses its ferromagnetic property. The critical temperature at which this change takes place is now known as the Curie point.
_Fig. 1. Magnetometer_
Scientific interest in magnetism had almost disappeared by the early twentieth century. However, while most doctors and physicists concentrated their efforts on other areas of study, throughout the world a number of researchers continued the study of magnetism. They usually worked discreetly, as their work was often not taken seriously and was sometimes discredited by their colleagues. Nonetheless, they persisted in their endeavors.
In the mid-1930s, various studies and research reports dealing with magnets and the applications of magnetism to health problems started to emerge. For example, between 1935 and 1937, Dr. William Campbell of Cambridge University studied the physical effects of magnetic fields on rodents and other small animals. In Germany, Dr. H. Bingenheimer attempted to establish the effects of electromagnetic energy on living organisms in the hope of using electromagnetism to stimulate physical development. A little later, between 1956 and 1971, Dr. N. S. Hanoka of the University of Israel studied the effect of magnetic fields on the reduction of infection and the treatment of injuries. Researchers in other countries were involved with various other related studies, some of which confirmed what others had discovered before them.
Today efforts are ongoing to effectively apply magnetic properties to physiology. There have been many experiments andRussia, and other countries that have begun to establish, and those experiments continue. However, even though these studies employ rigorous research methods, medical sectarianism often discounts therapies based on magnetism, as it does other alternative treatments and therapies. The development of biomagnetism has also been hindered by a lack of necessary equipment. Instruments able to measure very low-intensity magnetic fields, such as those found in the human body, have only recently become available.
In fact, it was not until 1911 that the German physician H, a discovery that finally made it possible to manufacture the tools and instruments necessary to measure biomagnetic signals of very low intensity, such as those in the human body and heart. (Superconductivity is a characteristic of certain metals whose electrical resistance disappears almost completely at temperatures below a specific threshold, usually very low, around 5°K, or -268°C. The resistance of supraconductors is practically nil; a current flowing in a supraconductor circuit can last for weeks without decreasing, even though the circuit has no generator. But as soon as the temperature is raised slightly above the threshold the current quickly falls to zero.) Thus, the birth of biomagnetism can only be said to have taken place in 1962, when G. H. Baule and R. McFee succeeded in taking the first magnetocardiogram.
Another highlight in the study of magnetism is the discovery of the elementary magnetic moment, or magneton, made in 1921 by Otto Stern, a German-born American physicist. As a result of Stern's work, we now know the magnetic properties of atoms. Later, in 1954, American chemist Linus C. was a crucial discovery, and we now know that iron is not only involved in transporting the oxygen in hemoglobin, buAll thesemagnetic and electric fieldvarious magnetic resonance equipment now used in the field of medicine.
The study of biomagnetism continues to expand. The first International Conference on Biomagnetism took place in Boston in 1976. This conference was more a forum for discussion than a formal conference. Subsequent conferences saw a large number of presentations on subjects such as neuromagnetism, cardiomagnetism, and other practical applications of biomagnetism. In 1991, the eighth International Congress on Biomagnetism, held in Münster, Germany, was attended by, featured more than 240 presentations on various aspects of biomagnetism, and produced a total of 142 papers, which were eventually published in a nine-hundred-page book entitled _Biomagnetism: Clinical Aspects._*3 By that time, improved data gathering in multiple areas made it possible to include a much greater number of clinical studies, which became the subject of the most recent conference.
At first, research in the field of biomagnetism was conducted only in physical-science or engineering laboratories, simply because the equipment was not available elsewhere. When the ) system became generally available around 1971, research was extended to include the biological sciences. Since the early 1990s, this new field of knowledge is even being applied in clinical settings. However, powerful biomagnetic equipment is expensive, and less effective biomagnetic systems are only used in clinical environments when nothing else can replace them. When other less expensive systems are able to produce the same results, they can be used instead of the current biomagnetic devices. R limited systems that cover the patient's head or chest only, which would be less expensive alternatives to those that cover the whole body.
It is clear that the improvement of existing biomagnetic systems, as well as the reduction of their considerable production costs, will be necessary before this science can flourish in the medical realm. The development of data interpretation models is also a priority. Once data have been gathered they must be compared to a consistent standard in order to identify exceptions. The challenge in biomagnetic research is to create strategies that lead to reliable conclusions, which can then be used to make accurate diagnoses and suggest effective treatments. At the current level of research and practice, biomagnetism is still a field restricted to a small number of practitioners.
Information sources for the general public are also limited. Although several scientists have shown an interest in the application of biomagnetism to medical practice, very few have written works accessible to the general reader. The exceptions are B. Bhattacharyya and his son A. K. Bhattacharya, Albert Roy Davis, Dhanlal Gala, Holger Hanneman, Larry Johnson, Buryl Payne, Walter C. Rawls, Ralph U. Sierra, G. W. de la Warr, and George J. Washnis, who have all written books that are appropriate for the layperson.
The study of magnetism has an important place in the culture of India, which is why much of the significant research on biomagnetism comes from there. The ancient Vedas speak of the polarity present in each human being and in each atom, and Indian doctors commonly use magnetism in their practice. Earlier this century Dr. Benoytosh Bhattacharyya conducted important research in the therapeutic power of magnets and gems and wrote several books on the subject. A. K. Bhattacharya, his son, has continued his father's work and gone on to study the effects of magnetism on biological systems (plants, animals, and human beings). He has also researched the clinical applications of magnetism in cases where traditional medicine has proved to be ineffective, and like his father he has written many important works on the subject, including several on biomagnetism.

How can we amplify the impact of groundbreaking scientific? A Bay Area philanthropist engaged Worldview Studio to help promote a groundbreaking study by two Stanford and Harvard scientists. Their analysis of Alcoholics Anonymous-- the most rigorous and comprehensive ever conducted--demonstrated the effectiveness of AA across multiple measures. It was published in February 2020 by the prestigious Cochrane Reviews.
The Worldview team developed and executed a comprehensive media campaign that centered on a scripted, 15-minute documentary. “Is Alcoholics Anonymous Effective?” described the study and results, with commentary from the authors and a community clinical psychologist. The team also orchestrated and amplified extensive PR/social media, including graphic research summaries for key audiences, (e.g., social workers, clinicians, probation officers, pastors); social media/email copy and graphics; and contact lists of 100+ influencers concerned with alcoholism research and treatment.
