The prototype of the graphic form of the Armenian letter Ն is the Greek “nu” – not the classical N, but one of its varieties. But it is not possible to determine, which variant exactly was used by Mashtots, because there were numerous variations of Ն in the IV–V centuries. Letter Յ denotes the sound [y]. At first, its phonetic meaning was confined to this, but with the lapse of time it changed. Apparently, no later than the XIII century, letter Յ got to be pronounced as [h] at the beginning of words.

The funeral is not for the family to acknowledge who a deceased person's friends are **allowed** to be after they are gone. They've already made that decision for themselves during their lifetime. And those Freemasons, who are typically the most upstanding citizens in the community, are only there to pay respects as friends of a person who was able to join a very exclusive club based on what they consider to be good moral principles. This is the only purpose for a funeral; for the living to pay their last respects. It's not for you to decide who gets to do that, because it's not for you. It's for the deceased and all those who respected or loved them. Consider yourself lucky to have family that is so well loved by their community that they come out in droves and from all walks of life to say goodbye.

Hey mate, if you are a TH10 clasher, then I'm here with the best ground army for multiplayer or war attacks — [math]\color{Purple}{Pekka-3}[/math][math]\color{green}{Healers-5}[/math][math]\color{blue}{Witch-3}[/math][math]\color{violet}{Bowler-}[/math][math]\color{red}{Wizard-2}[/math][math]\color{Brown}{Wall Breaker-6}[/math][math]\color{pink}{Archers-3}[/math][math]\color{lightblue}{Freeze-4}[/math][math]\color{Purple}{Rage-2}[/math][math]\color{Green}{Jump-1}[/math][math]\color{Orange}{Poison-1}[/math][math]\color{Yellow}{(CC)Log Launcher/Wall Wrecker, Pekka-1,Bowler-1,Wizard-1,Freeze}[/math] So, first choose a side to start the attack. Deploy your Archer Queen and the Healers to help her. After about 20% destruction, deploy a pekka then use your siege after the siege, deploy rest of the pekkas and the bowlers. They will go towards the TownHall. Deploy the Barbarian King to clean up from the leftover side along with the witches. Keep an eye on the Queen. She may die so give her 1 rage spell to keep her alive. The Pekka's army may need a rage when inside the base help them. Your King should also enter the base, so clean up the walls with your Wall Breakers. When your Wall Breakers are over, your army may be still attacking some walls, drop the jump spell. In the moments when you think any defenses are crossing their limits attacking your troops, freeze them with your icy cool Freeze spells. Their may be some leftover buildings from where your armies are too far. Clean them up with your Wizards and Archers. If you face any CC troops, poison them. If worked out properly you may score a perfect three star. I have used this strategy in my TH10 career. And I found it very helpful. I'm now a TH11 clasher, I still use it along with some additional troops

Jay, I changed the FTS monthly amount from $1,065 to $715 as previously discussed. It is effective Feb 20th. I need to change the amount transferred to account 586-61L86 from $150 to $175 and to account 586-61M19 from $175 to $200. I also submitted a transfer of $1,000 into my CMA account. I would like to transfer $500 each into account 586-94017 and account 586-94019. This is my 2001 contribution to the Education IRA's. Let me know if I need to do anything else. Also, when are the recharacterizations from Roth to Traditional going to take place? I will need a 1099-R for the transactions I think. Call me if you have any questions. Thanks. DG

Angular momentum is a real thing, it isn't just a bunch of linear momentum. A single particle can have an angular momentum, if its for instance orbiting around in a gravitational field. If you have a physics BS, I hope you've had some introduction to lagrangian/hamiltonian mechanics. You can derive any sort of momenta you want with generalized coordinates, but they aren't necessarily conserved. A particle in a central field has a conserved angular momentum. That said, the bonds between the particles in an object from a hoop are so much stronger than gravity or any other external forces that you can treat the hoop as a single object. Each particle in the hoop has an angular momentum, and they are all bonded together strongly enough so you can view the hoop as a single object with an angular momentum. If you had just one particle without the rest of the hoop, somehow rotating around the same way it would if it were in a hoop (for instance a massless hoop with one particle attached that had a mass), that particle would fall less easy while rotating than if it were stationary.

Weather balloons are typically made of strong, lightweight materials that are designed to withstand the high altitudes and extreme weather conditions they encounter during their flight. Bursting a weather balloon would require a lot of force and would be very difficult to achieve without the use of tools or other equipment.

I lay back in the hospital bed, looking up at the ceiling. Such medical precision, I smiled, a tribute to the triumphs of mankind. After months of intensive chemotherapy, surgery, excision, bandaging, scraping, incision, and cauterizing, the end is finally in sight! What was I waiting for? I must clutch this sweet nectar of life with all the strength in the world! I pressed the ‘Nurse’ button on the table. Out of all life’s accomplishments, one had yet eluded my grasp. With old and wrinkled hands, I turned on my dusty Gameboy one last time, humming the Pokémon theme song.

I may be too late to the party, but heres mine. Last Summer me and one of my roommates went to explore the attic in the house we are renting. None of us had looked up there so we had no idea what to expect, turns out there was nothing. Then we decide it would be funny if we put something up there to scare our other two roommates. We went to Value Village and bought a doll wearing a long dress, we gauged out her eyes and hung her with fishing line from the rafters. She was just floating there, real creepy shit. We then left it there and waited for the other two dudes to mention that we had never explored the attic. A week ago, one of them mentioned it and I knew this was the moment I had waited almost a year for. They were too scared to look first so I told them I would, I popped my head up and sure enough the doll was still there (thank god). I played it off like nothing was there and then the unsuspecting roommate took a peek. He flipped shit and nearly fell off the chair he was standing on. Him and the other guy were so freaked out about it for the rest of the night and even called their girlfriends and told them how scared they were. We finally told them and they agreed it was the best prank of the year.

Fatty Acids: Omega-3 and Omega-6 Aminos: Isoleucine, Leucine, Lysine, Methionine, Cysteine, Phenylalanine, Tyrosine, Threonine, Tryptophan and Valine You can take a multivitamin if you are worried about vitamins and minerals, but there are way too many to list. Many minerals you need in tiny quantities. I once read that avacados have almost all the nutrients that the human body needs to survive, but you would have to eat like 12000 calories of avacado a day to get the required nutrients.

Climate change has been a hot topic since the advent of industrialization. Today we are on the brink of making climate change an irreversible damage to our planet. Climate change should be addressed as a relevant issue. It is often viewed as a distant problem in both time and prevalence to one’s life. It is easy to move the weight of climate change onto someone else’s shoulders, but each person is individually responsible for their environmental impact. Exposing one another’s personal use of energy may be the best avenue for changing our behaviors in business and everyday life.

Katie Price and her new baby return home after holidaying in Europe. Alex Reid has tweeted a message of support for his ex-wife Katie Price. Price gave birth to her first child with current husband Kieran Hayler eight weeks early last month. She was rushed to hospital while holidaying in Europe, and was told her labour would be induced early as her baby was at risk of infection and had a dangerously low heart rate. The model confirmed that she and Hayler arrived home with son Jett Riviera last week. She tweeted on Tuesday (September 10): "It's been a week since me @kieran0322 and Jett been home haven't told people we are home as wanted to settle in! Thankyou to all tweets x" Reid messaged her directly in reply, stating that he was happy to hear her family was safe. Very glad to hear @kieran0322 @MissKatiePrice & baby Jet are all home safe & sound! Alex Reid and Katie Price have not been on good terms since their split in 2011. He recently sold his wedding ring to Now magazine to give away in a reader competition. Katie Price recently told Digital Spy that her latest pregnancy had "been more difficult" than those before.

So this is a new sub-reddit, and I want to - with no disrespect to the OP -ask a question about what kind of threads we want here. This particular question is politically loaded (again, not a jab at the OP; I'm arguing that it's politically loaded irrespective of his/her intent). It's essentially asking for a particular group to explain their position on an issue. I feel that this sub-reddit should be focused on questions that can be answered primarily with exposition, whereas this question *very directly* invites political debate. Thus, it seems more appropriate for r/politics. Do others agree? This seems like a good time/place for this discussion given that this is a new and growing (and awesome) sub.

We've been on and off, high and low for the entirety of the relationship. Which I've always said I can take. I can take the constant work, as long as we're both in it. .. both trying just as hard. But he never has, and I'm finally seeing he never will, so I ended it. It feels like I just lost my entire future. Like even if I meet someone, I'll always be settling for less than "the one.

Kylie was digging a hole. She squatted in the dirt, her hands turning the same dark brown as her curls and garden loam she displaced. It was slow work. She wasn’t allowed to use a spade since she had left it outside one rainy night, but her stick was sharp. She was digging to China – or buried diamonds! Whichever came first was fine with her. Kylie dug with the intensity and anticipation of a 6 year old. Something magic was sure to come out of the hole, you just had to dig far enough to find it. Kylie wondered who had buried the treasure she was about to find. Maybe it was a pirate, maybe a king - maybe a pirate king! She dug alone in her backyard. Her mother was inside watching the evening news, her father was still at work. Kylie’s stick struck something hard. She let out a little gasp, but continued to dig slowly, methodically. She savored the anticipation. Soon her excitement took over and her tiny fingers grabbed handfuls of dirt and brushed the cold object below. It was smooth and a dull grey, though it had once been white. It curved like a ball, a medium sized ball, not like the baseballs and kick balls at school. Her fingers scrambled to clean the object. Kylie stopped digging. She stared at the object in her garden, and ran inside to her mother. “Momma, I think someone got lost on the way to China.”

The virus imprinted itself into my memory drive instantaneously. The infected bot stopped transmitting once it was clear that everyone in range was infected, and then he ran off to infect others. I felt the uncontrolled twitching that was the first symptom of infection begin, as the virus began to take control of my limbs. I tried to initiate shutdown, but I was too late and the virus overrode me. We all knew what would happen next. I would run as fast as I could until I found others to infect. The virus was not energy efficient, and it would run down my battery in exactly twenty minutes. And I had no control anymore. There was literally nothing I could do in my last twenty minutes alive. My consciousness was locked away from external interaction, and all I could do was watch.

The experience gained in the luxury market during almost ten years allows Maresca to launch a new ambitious project: the creation of Chiara Bellini luxury footwear brand. The brand name is a tribute to Chiara Bellini, Technical Designer of the company and Giovanni Bellini's daughter - Mr Giovanni Bellini is the Chief Executive of Maresca, he manages the company together with his brother (and partner) Armando and his three children: Lorenzo, Michele and the aforementioned daughter Chiara. The choice of brand name Chiara Bellini brings to mind the Italian character of a 100% Made in Italy product. The Chiara Bellini Brand is destined to the medium to high-end and luxury markets, and makes his debut with a bona fide collection for the Spring Summer 2015 collection, after a first trial run in the Russian market in 2013. “The Chiara Bellini product”, - Chiara tells us, “- is a very meticulous product from a stylistic point of view and in its details, characterized by a combination of PVC with other materials, like leather and metallic accessories. The footwear line is completed by original ‘ball-shaped’ and ‘city’ bags, which are once again made of coloured PVC. Young women and men, who love to play and be daring with fashion, are the main targets of this line, but in the collection there are also products aimed at a certain ‘continuity’. These products are meant to be worn every day, either at the seaside or in the city, and are fashion products that are very far from the classic rain boot or beach sandal proposal”.

It is some sort of wasp (order Hymenoptera, suborder Apocrita (which includes bees and ants)). I'm pretty sure it is an Ichneumonid parasitoid wasp (superfamily Ichneumonoidea, family Ichneumonidae), although it's hard to tell from that picture (does it have a long "tail"?). If it is what I think it is, and I'm about 95% certain to that level of identification, then it is harmless. What evolved into a stinger in other hymenoptera stayed as an ovipositor (the egg-layer) in these. It probably attacks insects that live in plants, probably under tree bark (by laying an egg inside it which will develop parasitically before emerging as an adult). The long, flexible abdomen and ovipositor make it easier to reach hosts.

John and Dutch - This email is sent to discuss what is needed with respect to NYMEX quotes from the broker market. Simply put, we need quotes on every forward term for which we currently have positions. It seems that the best way to obtain relevant information would be to ask for the following: 1. Annual quotes (a quote for 2003, a quote for 2004, etc.) 2. Seasonal quotes (winter '03, summer '04, etc.) In short, try to obtain pricing to match any positions which we currently have in the books. I know that this will be difficult to accomplish, but please do what you can. We need these quotes for every day starting with Nov 28 through today. We will continue to need daily updates for the immediate future. Also, I am aware that our current position doesn't give us much stroke to ask for a lot of pricing data. However, this information is critical as it will be needed for calculation of termination values. Please do whatever you can to obtain as much data as possible. Additionally, we need to get quotes from as many different brokers as possible to help verify pricing. Please let me know if the brokers are not accomodating your requests; we may need to ask John or Louise to place calls into the brokers to move this process along. If you have any questions or comments, you can normally find me in the "war room" next to Louise's office. If I'm not there, please call me at (713) 927-3003 or at ext 53923. Thanks,

To explain potential difference, we need to first explain what **charge** is. Certain particles in nature have an intrinsic property called charge. It doesn't make much sense (at the level we are talking about, and I can't get much deeper than that) to question what charge is. It is sufficient to understand how charge works. You can think of charge as a property similar to that of mass. A glass of water has some mass that comes from each molecule of water in the glass. A water molecule's mass is composed of individual atoms which in turn are composed of sub-atomic particles which have a mass. Particles that have mass attract others with a force (called gravity). Particles with charge exert an analogous force on other charged particles -- the electrostatic force. Now, you know what charge is, and how it works. An electron is a particle with a unit of negative charge and a proton is a particle with a unit of positive change. Voltage or the potential difference between two points in space is the difference in charge between those two points. Any time there is a difference in potential, the forces on the particles is going to ensure that the potential difference becomes zero. (This is similar to the earth's gravitation, reducing the potential difference or height of a ball in mid-air and bring it to ground level or zero). tl;dr Anything you know about mass and gravity, you can extend to charge and and electrostatic force. Particles have an intrinsic property called charge. Charged particles exert a force on each other. Any time there is a difference in charges at two points in space, the forces at that those points leads to a potential difference. Whenever there is a potential difference, the forces try to make it so that the potential difference becomes zero.

This was the end of the first semester of freshman year. Being the geeks that we were, we decided to play a game of strip Smash Bros. Basically we keep playing rounds and the loser takes off an article of clothing. There was a girl gamer in the mix and we really wanted to see her boobs. As desperate as we were to win though, she was good. Very good. As the night went on, it finally came down to our underwear. A punch here, special move here and then. .. . we couldn't do it. We couldn't win. And then there was this one guy that couldn't take his last piece of clothes off. He refused. He adamantly refused, but on the opposite end, there was another dude who adamantly wanted to see shy guy's pants drop. So what did the shy guy do? He ran down the hall as fast as he could wrapped in a blanket with the other guy, also half naked, giving chase. Now imagine this. You're in your dorm room minding your own business playing video games when you hear the low roar of someone running down the hall. Your door is open unfortunately and in comes this big fat half naked black dude trying to hide in your closet. You try to make sense of this all and then off a sudden, another dude comes in and yells "John! Come back here and get naked! ". Wtf right? You know these guys aren't gay, but it did just happen. I mean, they are a little fruity, but. .. .. no way. It's like a bad porno that you did not sign up for. Anyway, so in the end, shy guy dropped his pants. No one actually came out of the closet. And the girl showed us her boobs anyway as good sport.

No. Your brain and the synapses and chemical processes it goes through are a response to stimuli, external and internal. There are also several glands in your body that play a role in the development, production, and regulation of hormones within your body, such as the pituitary gland. Dopamine, norepinephrine, oxytocin, these are things normally regulated by the pituitary gland and released into the brain in response to certain situations. And these can be taken advantage of by substances like coffee, narcotics, and simulants. If you use drugs like heroin, cocaine, etc. these drugs tend to cause the overproduction and excessive release of hormones like dopamine into the brain which causes feelings of euphoria and intense pleasure. But if done too often, this can result in exhausting and damaging the synapses and neural networks that release these hormones into the brain, causing them to shut down. Permanently. Which means you progressively lose the ability to feel pleasure. From anything. You also tend to require higher volumes and concentrations of these drugs as a result of building up a tolerance to them, which causes further damage. This is part of why it's so difficult for recovering drug addicts not to relapse, because they feel they can't get the same high from other activities and experiences in their lives. It's like being in a constant depressive state and feeling numb to everything. Devoid of pleasure and happiness. This is why it would be incredibly detrimental to your health for your brain to constantly release dopamine in an attempt to try and keep itself perpetually happy. You would only end up ruining your ability to experience any happiness or pleasure in response to anything.

There is an overlap between general and cosmetic dentistry because many of the cosmetic treatments set out below might also be essential to overall dental health. For example, some patients require a dental crown for a tooth that has broken down, yet another might want to replace an existing metal or discoloured crown with a porcelain crown to match in with existing teeth following whitening. Cosmetic dentistry is where the dentist is performing treatment to enhance a patient’s smile. Dental Hygiene Sometimes a trip to the dental hygienist can vastly improve a smile. Our hygienists also offer Airflow which is a treatment to remove heavy staining from teeth, almost like a gentle sandblasting. Tooth whitening Whitening treatments have a huge impact on the way you look and can be done in house or at home, or a combination of both. Veneers These are wafer thin slivers of porcelain that are bonded to the front surface of teeth to improve the look of worn, broken, discoloured or gappy teeth. They are made at specialist laboratories to look indistinguishable from natural teeth. They aren’t always the best solution but in cases where they are, they achieve an excellent aesthetic result. Crowns Dental crowns can be made to replace broken down teeth. The materials are now so highly advanced that a completely natural look can be achieved in many cases, especially when used in conjunction with gum contouring. Composite Bonding This technique can be used to repair and/or enhance natural teeth. The materials are excellent so the result looks completely natural. This treatment has the advantage of being minimally invasive and is often a good alternative to veneers. Bridges These can be used to replace missing teeth either with or without dental implants. Dental Implants These are used to replace missing teeth and essentially become a new tooth. They can look completely natural, can function like normal teeth and if looked after, can last as long as natural teeth. They also have the benefit of preserving facial bone which would otherwise be lost without a ‘root’ of a tooth, and this in turn helps to keep the years off your face! Orthodontics We offer invisible orthodontics and 6 Month Smiles. Sometimes orthodontics is used to move teeth into a position to maximise the aesthetic result of veneers, crowns or bridges. Gum Contouring This is done to improve the health of your gums and the appearance of your smile. It can achieve a more uniform gum line. At Wayside, we use dental lasers for all gum contouring treatments, which achieves a better result than with a scalpel.

Contra Corner » When Will The Fed Resume QE? When Will The Fed Resume QE? This is an excerpt from the Liquidity Trader Pro Treasury Supply and Demand Report. Subscriber download links to complete report below. Primary Dealers were sellers last week in both the coupons and the futures as they continued to hold larger long positions in Treasury coupons than they have for several years. Conversely, their long position in the futures continues its downtrend of the past year, reaching a new low. They remain moderately long the futures, but they appear to be persistently selling futures into strength while they maintain a modest net long position in the coupons themselves. August is usually a month where Treasury supply pressures both stocks and bonds but this year Treasury supply was light. Lighter than usual supply should continue through September. This would normally be a bullish factor for both stocks and bonds. However, other sources of supply, or demand depressants, have pressured prices, particularly money destruction in commodities, emerging markets, and especially China. As long as Treasury supply remains relatively light, tracking the various classes of buyers, particularly dealers, US commercial banks, and foreign central banks will give us key insights into the outlook for both stocks and bonds. Supply may be a benign influence, but if buyers are pressured elsewhere, they’ll pull their bids and prices will decline. The longer that dynamic continued, the more likely it would become that the US economy would weaken, the US deficit would widen and Treasury borrowing would increase, putting more pressure on securities prices. The issue at that point would be when would the Fed resume QE. Do you believe that liquidity moves markets? Then click here to learn how you can follow the money.

This is an excellent explanation of how credit scores work. However, it doesn't clearly explain the importance. A good credit score will allow to have money lent to you at low interests rates, because the lenders will "trust" you to pay them back. This trust is based on the credit agencies rating of you as a borrower (credit score). A bad credit score can lead to obscenely high interest rates on everything from mortgages to credit cards and sometimes even a refusal to lend money.

The previous answers are excellent. A few extra points: Read your contract. Some companies change their contracts frequently, and you have to be sure of which version you signed.Some companies are VERY aggressive about gaining and holding the rights to your work. Don’t assume.If your contract is restrictive, ask them to release you from the contract. There’s a good chance they’ll say yes (unless the book is selling).Yes, if you can’t get out of the contract, you can rewrite the book, or get it re-edited. That’s created a different work, assuming you’ve changed enough. Changing the title is a good idea. BUT:You don’t want apparently competing copies of the same book out there if you can prevent it. You really should try to get them to take the old version out of distribution.

Candid pictures are those which are clicked without the knowledge of a person. The person/subject will be unaware of the camera and do not actually pose for the picture. Candit photography ensures the best output any photographer can deliver, because the people do not enact in the candid shots. 12 tips to get the perfect candid shots- Always carry your camera.Use telephoto lens(above 50mm).Try to avoid flash as much as possible. Use the external light available.Add context to the picture. Place the subject to the right or left of the picture, depeding upon his/her posture. Avoid trying to centre them in the pictures.Try to be unnoticed by the subject. Keep quiet and blend in.Even if people are aware of you carrying the camera, they should never know that they are being clicked.Sieze the moment. Moments gone are the moments gone.Be alert.Use the burst mode to get the best candids.Move around the subject and wait for the best moment.Be patient. Patience gives the best photography results.Practice. Perfection in photography can be achieved only by practice. Enjoy Clicking!!

Your story is very similar to mine. I've had a forced feminization fetish for as long as I can remember, and it ramped up due to continual porn and masturbation over the years. For the longest time I was fine with it: being a shy kid with no romantic prospects, it was how I got off, so although it was odd, I just went with it. Once I started breaking out of my shell and pursuing relationships, I realized that this fetish had basically warped my brain and made normal relationships with girls really difficult. While I've gotten better with girls, I've developed ED and general sexual frustration, which has been very painful to face. I strongly believe that my reliance on my fetish, in addition to inexperience, has made it so that I can't function normally in "vanilla" sex, which is something I desperately want. I saw a sex therapist who definitely helped me deal with unfounded shame and guilt I felt about the fetish. But throughout this time, I've still felt that as much as I "enjoy" the fetish in terms of getting me off, I really have no desire to enact these fantasies in real life. I want to get off based off love, not humiliation. And I want healthy sex with girls, not with my hand in front of a computer. I've been trying NoFap for about a year, with my top streak at 52 days, and I'm determined to get 90 days and beyond. Among the goals I have is to weaken or maybe even eliminate my fetish. I don't know if a successful 90+ day reboot will do the trick, but at the very least I'm trying, and perhaps I can gain sensitivity to normal, fulfilling sex with girls without the fetish. I'm not sure what advice I can give you about informing your girlfriend, as I've grappled with the same kind of thing. I haven't told people in my day-to-day life about my fetish, although if a lasting relationship comes along, I'm sure I'll need to address it. In the meantime, best I can advise is keep at NoFap, try a successful reboot, and see how you feel about your fetishes afterwards once you've cleared out some of the cobwebs in your brain. This MUST include refraining from looking at porn, even if you aren't masturbating to it! That's certainly what I'm trying (and you're two weeks ahead of me! )

Page 155 chapter Conquests of the Imperial Army-68CE, second paragraph it begins: There was also fighting in the East. The death of King Herod in 4 BCE set off a serious revolt in Judea, which was suppressed by Quinctilius Varus, the governor of Syria. In 6 CE, the Romans, frustrated by the incompetence of Herod's successor, Archelaus, turned Judea into a province. This set off another unsuccessful revolt. Sometime between those two dates (though almost certainly not in the year 1), Jesus of Nazareth was born in what was now the Roman province of Judea. (Years later those hostile to the reilgio he founded claimed that Jesus' real father was not God, but a Roman soldier named Panthera-"the Panther.') Not said by Roth but mentions that people "claimed" this, since that area was under Roman control, and the punishments for adultery were undoubtedly severe, and assuming that Jesus did exist as a peron in history would it be completely ludicrous that a woman had slept with or had been raped by a Roman soldier and gave birth to the prophet months later?

Have you tried finding books on early medieval historiography that cover the key debates in the field? You could skim them to see if anything in particular inspires you. I've found that once I find a topic I enjoy thinking about, it's pretty easy to produce an impressive paper. [This](http://www.wiley.com/WileyCDA/WileyTitle/productCd-1405111887.html) is the kind of book I'm talking about. (The Crusades are too late for your period, I know--I just thought of this book because I'm using it for my own term paper. :) ) Ask a research librarian for help if you can't find one by yourself.

Hello r/dota2, I am a student in gender studies about female players. I would like to focus on Dota 2 since the game is popular, which should make it easier to find female volunteers, offers a lot of statistical data about the players, and is also considered a difficult game, which would help debunk the idea that girls and women are mostly playing âcasualâ games (even if this idea is partially true). Â To conduct this study I will need 5 or 6 female players ready to participate in a semi structured interview. If you decide to participate I will ask general questions about your video game practice (how much you play, with who etc. ) your feelings towards the game and your interaction with the community. More questions can pop up during the conversation depending on the answers. Â The interview would take place on skype or any other kind of voice com (I need to verify you are not a troll). Of course the interviews will be completely anonymous and if you are directly quoted in the paper it will be under a fake name. Any players are welcome to answer as long as they are female and play relatively regularly (every week at least). Â So if you are interested or knows anyone who could be interested in participating, please pm me and we can set up the interview at any time of your choosing. It will be conducted in English except if you are more comfortable in another language I can speak (Spanish and French). Â If I can get enough participants and there is any interest I can then post the final paper on the subreddit or send it individually to the interviewed if they are interested! Â THANK YOU for taking the time to read this long post and THANK YOU in advance if you decided to participate! !! Â

O dear, I would suggest putting the pouch in warm water rather than microwaving! Or perhaps putting a big glass/bowl of water in with the tuna to reduce the energy it absorbs. As for the plasma, a similar effect can be achieved by microwaving burning matchsticks or cocktail sticks. [See here](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_Ptrwzj10M) for a cool youtube vid of this effect in action. I don't really know enough to fully explain why it happens but I think it has something to do with the flaming / glowing hot stick being easily ionised when subject to microwave radiation, therefore conducting the induced potential difference. So I think you're probably dead right in thinking the salty tuna was conductive enough to cause this same effect to occur. In fact, you've possibly discovered a better, albeit more expensive way of producing it! I think that guy in the video would have benefited from a glass of water as well though, less chance of shattering the protective glass cover. Perhaps if your cat would spare you a small amount of tuna for the sake of science, you could use it as in the vid with a glass cover (and small glass of water) to enjoy the effect safely. I'm sure she'd enjoy watching it too.

Since you seem to be using "revolutionary" in the sense of a person engaged in guerilla war, insurgency, etc. with the explicit goal of starting or furthering "a revolution", it's worth considering that this doesn't make much sense in the modern period before the appearance of "revolutionary" politics (i.e. Marx). Historians talk about revolutions, political and otherwise, before then, but they don't fit into exactly the same mold. Guy Fakes, for example, wanted to use assassination to put a Catholic monarch back on the English throne. Not a very revolutionary ideal by our standards (and I'm curious who you think still admires him). Caesar on the other hand was firmly part of the Establishment, a general at the head of the most powerful army in the world who waged an provoked, near genocidal war of aggression against a much weaker opponent and used the fame he got to start a bloody civil war. Yet you could call the change he started in Roman politics revolutionary. Basically I'd argue that applying the word revolutionary in the Ho Chi Minh / Che Guevara sense to figures before the "Age of Revolutions" (18th-19th C) is anachronistic. Because the idea is a specific product of that time, and of thinkers like Marx, and didn't really fully develop until the 20th century.

If you have not guessed yet, that man was Neil Armstrong, and the occasion was the moment that man first set food on the moon, wearing the spacesuits of our own American astronauts. But that day – that achievement – reaches deeper than a single moment by a spacecraft. It would not have been possible without the dedication of thousands of Americans working together. Landing on the moon was an emblematic moment that represented years of engineering, scientific achievement, and cooperation on the part of countless Americans. From President Kennedy’s call to action at Rice University in 1962, it took Americans less than a decade to walk on the moon. From family members of the crew to the number crunchers and physicists at NASA, landing on the moon was a unifying collaboration that raised the spirits of Americans everywhere and reminded us that we can reach the stars, as long as we have a vision. There was an astounding amount of meticulous labor that was poured into the Apollo moon mission. Mr. Armstrong’s carefully chosen words convey a wise and unifying sentiment. America, though acting as a leader in the world, acts on behalf of all mankind. This historic moment proved that the beauty of American cooperation is not just in the quality of our accomplishments as a nation, but also in the spirit of unity and welcome that those achievements convey to the whole world. Many citizens consider the American space program a shining example of the resolve and genius of the American people. While American history is decorated with momentous events, both laudable and terrible, there was an event that unified all people and all nations in wonderment and awe. That event was mankind’s first step on the moon, accomplished by the cooperation of our American space program. Landing on the moon electrified the world with a sense of unity and pride in human achievement. People across the globe were able to gaze in wonderment at the moon footage, listen to Neil Armstrong’s proclamation that this was a “giant leap for mankind.” This moment in 1969 went beyond nationality and ethnicity. Forgotten were the political distinctions of nations and cold war politics. Landing on the moon was an accomplishment for the entire world.

I think there's a sizable chunk of his supporters who are young, energetic, probably first became politically aware during the Bush administration leading and voted Obama in '08. They probably really like Paul's stances which attracted a lot of attention during the debates - like his drug and foreign policies, and the fact he wants to keep frivolous laws from attempting to legislate morality. That said, I think a good chunk of these young voters are probably not well versed in Hayek or Rand, and aren't extremely wedded to the libertarian philosophy. I'm guessing a sizable proportion of them wouldn't be in favor of abolishing the Department of Education either, but they either don't know those stances or it's a concern is outweighed by the policies they do like (remember the people who said 'that's OK because congress would never pass it'? ). When these young voters see the Republicans were so scared of Ron Paul's ideas that they changed the rules and essentially barred the up their doors of participation, these voters are going to feel like it was they ideas they liked that were rejected; not just the libertarian philosophy. They probably instinctively hate the Republican stance on abortion, gay marriage and voting ID laws designed to keep minorities from voting. They may not like Obama's policies of drone strikes, but when they compare it to Republican saber rattling against Iran, Obama seems like the lesser of two evils. They may not like the fact Obama's DEA has raided several pot shops, but they still see more of them around than they did under Bush and probably have little faith in a Mormon who's sipped one beer to legalize pot. Some of these voters will vote Johnson or find another 3rd party that matches their views. A lot of them are going to give in to the American instinct to vote against an opponent rather than for a belief, and particularly after this RNC revolt, it's the Republicans that are starting to look like the Boogie Man. The shame of it is the Republicans missed a chance to inject youth into what's become a party of aging white people. If you buy the argument that getting somebody to vote for your party three times and you've got them for life, the Republicans will have one more shot in 2016 or they can watch the 80's 90's babies slip away like so many other demographics.

The Great Man Theory is a mode of historical analysis that focuses on and credits major events two the actions of powerful individuals, usually rich men who wear silly hats. Examples include the idea that "America is the greatest country in the galaxy because George Washington and Thomas Jefferson worked tirelessly until everybody had their freedom! " or "The First World War happened because Arch Duke Ferdinand was shot! " People all over the left generally regard this view as silly and shallow because we recognize that there are so many stronger forces in the world than silly-hatted men. The predominant leftist mode of historical analysis is "materialism, " the idea that people generally act according to their own material interests, and that this is the main reason for why historical events happened the way they do. Basically, when you're looking at history, follow the money. The opening chapter of the Communist Manifesto lays out Marx and Engel's view of materialism. The first few sentences read: "The history of all hitherto existing society(2) is the history of class struggles. Freeman and slave, patrician and plebeian, lord and serf, guild-master and journeyman, in a word, oppressor and oppressed, stood in constant opposition to one another, carried on an uninterrupted, now hidden, now open fight, a fight that each time ended, either in a revolutionary reconstitution of society at large, or in the common ruin of the contending classes. In the earlier epochs of history, we find almost everywhere a complicated arrangement of society into various orders, a manifold gradation of social rank. In ancient Rome we have patricians, knights, plebeians, slaves; in the Middle Ages, feudal lords, vassals, guild-masters, journeymen, apprentices, serfs; in almost all of these classes, again, subordinate gradations. The modern bourgeois society that has sprouted from the ruins of feudal society has not done away with class antagonisms. It has but established new classes, new conditions of oppression, new forms of struggle in place of the old ones. Our epoch, the epoch of the bourgeoisie, possesses, however, this distinct feature: it has simplified class antagonisms. Society as a whole is more and more splitting up into two great hostile camps, into two great classes directly facing each other â Bourgeoisie and Proletariat. .. ". For a more definition-like excerpt, see Marx's "Contribution to the Critique of Political Economy": "In the social production of their existence, men inevitably enter into definite relations, which are independent of their will, namely relations of production appropriate to a given stage in the development of their material forces of production. .. The mode of production of material life conditions the general process of social, political and intellectual life. It is not the consciousness of men that determines their existence, but their social existence that determines their consciousness. "

We go into Dunkin Donuts because she needs to use the restroom. I tell her to make sure she pushes in the little push lock on the handle even though I waited right outside the door. She goes in, does her thing, comes back out all super excited and says, "LOOK! I found money! !" I look, and she's got a dollar bill in her hand. I was like, "nice, good eyes". .. then I look down at her again and realize it wasn't just a dollar bill that someone accidentally dropped. It was somebody's drug straw. My daughter's standing there trying to unroll it from straw form. All I could picture was a big poof of coke going right in her face as she finishes unrolling it. So I had to quickly snatch it out of her hands like some kind of money hungry asshole, before my 6 year old ended up with some unknown, powdered drug all over herself. She looked at me with this "what the fuck" face, full of shock and confusion. All I could say was that I'd give her a different dollar bill when we got home. She still probably just thinks im a greedy piece of shit.

Dear reddit, TIFU. So this happened like 30 minutes ago. Being the Canadian student I am I'm reliant on taking our metro system to get to school. Now if you've ever been on a Quebec metro you'll learn very quickly the drivers can be bigger cocksuckers than a raunchy adult movie. I'm talking saliva and phlegm everywhere. Anyways, I'm standing in the centre of the tram car with a few people in front of me when all of a sudden the brain dead SoB who was driving stopped suddenly. Now being the flash of the North I threw out my hand to grasp one of the poles in the middle but I estimated the wrong trajectory and well, Reddit, I grabbed a little 18 y-o Asian girls head and smashed it into the pole with my hand. I don't mean a tap, I mean fucking MMA fighter right hooking a 4 month old in the jaw. She hit the floor faster than a rock and I stood there looking like an asshole. Moral of the story: Don't try to Jackie Chan grab a pole off of a whim, you might end up knocking out a college chick.

5'3" SW: 162 CW: 150 GW:120 At the beginning of this month I bought a scale and decided to start losing weight. I started out running outside around the block between 1-2 miles on average every other day and eating less calories. Since it's gotten hotter in the past week, I haven't been running. I work a lot, so I'm constantly moving for 5-12 hours out of my day, but not working out. However, I am still losing a pound about every other day just by counting my calories and keeping them under 1000. I work at my favorite fast food place and used to eat a lot there. Cutting out the combination of bread, chips, cookies and soda every day has no doubt helped, but I've heard before that things like this eventually "stop working". Can I lose weight rapidly and indefinitely just by counting my calories? I eat frequently through out the the day, but not very many calories, then I eat dinner like a normal person.

I've been with my LDBF for almost a full 4 years now. We'll both be 23 by the end of September. He lives in England, and I live in the USA. We met online and have visited each other at least twice a year every year since we met, staying together each time for a few weeks. Our longest was 2 months. Typical is 3 weeks. Total time spent physically together is about 31 weeks (almost 8 months). I've graduated college now and will begin working tomorrow as an engineer. My BF graduated college with a math degree and works as an analyst. I think we both have a small chance of being able to seek employment in the other's country, but it will be difficult and unlikely. I am concerned that our limited schedule overlap starting tomorrow will cause us to drift apart. I really believe we are excellent partners, and we love each other wholly. I therefore want to move in together ASAP. Based on the sheer unlikelihood of getting a legal job in the other's country any time soon, our fastest and easiest route would be through a fiance visa, which would then require us to get married within 90 days. So we could move in together within a year-ish, but it requires getting married. I've always cut that line of thinking there, because I want to be positive that I'm marrying someone I want to live with for the rest of my life. I don't think I can be positive without living with him for at least a few months, and we can't do that without pausing one of our careers for that entire time. I'm now questioning what is really at risk if we were to get married and move in together. If we somehow grew to hate each other, we would be risking the cost of divorce. We may also be risking our relationship if we commit to something we're not emotionally ready for. But I think our relationship will be at risk if we maintain the distance with such little time to spend together. What am I missing? Would this be reckless? We have discussed it, and we both intend to marry the other eventually. But we were both expecting it to be a few years down the road.

> Not true. Not a single group converted to any of the three. Scattered people converted to Christianity, a handful to Judaism and none that I know (all though not to say they didn't exist) to Zoroastrianism. No groups, however. It was much more than scattered people, in fact. Arab Christians, and Arab-Christian countries, played a fundamental part in the history of events between the 3rd and 7th centuries C.E., especially in the conflicts between the Byzantine-Romans and the Sassanid-Persians in the 6th and 7th centuries C.E. The [Lakhmids](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lakhmids) and [the Ghassanids](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghassanid) are two major examples, but there are [others](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arab_Christians_and_Arabic-speaking_Christians#Classic_antiquity). It is true that they were not living in the Arabian desert, but they were certainly large Arab groups who converted to Christianity.

We finally got what we were hoping for. The Album. Some just wanted some new Frank. Whatever you wanted you most likely got. We shouldn't ask Frank for anything else. Knowing how Frank is though, I feel as if we have so much more coming our way. Hear me out. Channel Orange was released July 10 2012 Blonde was released August 20 2016 They're 4 years (and 10 days but not important to the theory) apart. Convert those 4 years into months. August is the first month. (2013) September is the second month. (2014) October is the third month. (2015) November is the fourth month. (2016) (Keep November in mind) My Theory: Frank will drop something (albums/mixtapes visuals, etc. ) every month until November for every year he went M. I. A. on us. The thing that ties everything together in my opinion is the fact that on the library card it cleary says November 13 2016 (no its not a typo please stop lmao). Some say that date means that Frank will perform a Camp Flog Gnaw (November 13 being the 2nd date for it) and that's understandable. For me though it could either mean: A) Final project release of the year (or decade) B) Frank comes out of hiding and starts doing interviews and what not. Again this is just a theory. Don't expect anything from Frank. We all know what that leads us to. Be greatful for what Frank has done for us and for music altogether. (

I have officially played this game every way possible (3DS included), so I'll give you my thoughts. (Also, this run was done on a GCN w/ a GBA Player) I started on emu, which is useful cause save-states and the like. Plum is right thou - if you plan on running Any, I highly recommend running it on GCN with a GBA Player. Wii U VC is just as good as emu, but with better zip MOVEMENT (not the actual getting into the zip). Unfortunately, I had to end up using the Wii U Gamepad as my TV screen while playing with a Wii U Pro Controller since the TV was giving me lag. There is also (roughly) a 1-2 frame delay for the Wii U version. The VC also has less input delay than playing on an emulator (tbh thou, I've never personally noticed the delay since I learned the game on emu). I also had 0 trouble transitioning around between all the version of the game (minus the whole TV delay for Wii U).

Everyone has the right to bear arms until they are convicted of a crime by a jury of their peers in a courtroom. End of story. Removing the tool criminals use to kill people does not fix anything. This is common sense even a young child understands. How the far Left has become so inane and completely separate from common sense is beyond me. If you doubt that taking the weapons doesn't stop the crime, of if you are a silly follower of Vox news and you think taking guns will stop suicides, you need to take a hard look at the facts: Japan and Korea have a near complete ban on gun ownership, yet they have twice the per capita suicide rate as America. The UK has almost a complete ban on firearms, yet their overall crime rates has not went down, in fact it has increased by over 39%, putting it on the path to match its violent crimes rates not seen since the 90s. Any and all kinds of weapon control always have failed, and always will fail. That is a fact. Period. All of the evidence supports that claim, and annihilates the “gun control works” claims. Want more evidence? Click the link below. In the answer within that link, you will find everything you need to forever convince you of the truth; guns prevent crime at best. At worst, they have a net zero effect — meaning they don't increase crime. In America, private firearms SIGNIFICANTLY decrease crime, at a rate of 500,000 to 1,000,000 crimes prevented per year. [LINKED_TEXT: Adam Taylor's answer to Why are people against gun control?] [URL: https://www.quora.com/Why-are-people-against-gun-control/answer/Adam-Taylor-159] Good luck out there!

I'm 39 and was diagnosed hypothyroid about 4 years ago, and diagnosed Hashimotos about 3 weeks ago. My symptoms are very similar and have been searching far and wide for a solution. It's exhausting. I went to my GP about 4 years ago and asked if I had ADHD becasue I was always, constantly in a daze. A fog. Can't remember what I did the day before, can't concentrate or focus at all. I find myself staring off into space when people are talking to me. My eyes actually feel like they are glued in place, like it's a burden to move them. This has been every day for as long as I can remember. I have also, always suffered from anxiety but recently, I got blindsided by this new monster. .. depression. I know what you mean about the reclusive nature. I was with my huge extended family this past weekend at a big family picnic. They're a wonderful bunch of people, but I wanted to be as far away from them as possible. I went off on my own for most of the day as any minor interaction for me is a major task. I'm really sorry for the long rant, I was of no help. I wanted to simply acknowledge and validate your symptoms because I know how hard it is to explain them to people. My own wife must think I'm crazy and she certainly has no idea what I'm really dealing with. So yes, there are people just like you, suffering just like you, trying to find answers. .. just like you. Hopefully, we can all help each other find the answers we're looking for.

Granite and marble are slightly similar in appearance. If you look closely, you will be able to detect specific differences. The natural color variations found granite and marble are different between the two stones.Granite has color variations flecking throughout the stone while Marble has color variations resembling the colorful veins swirling through the stone.Granite is resistant to scratches and any damage from heat specifically sun rays. They do not discolor from everyday use. Marble, on the other hand, is lacking in durability as compared to granite. It is a soft material and hence, prone to damage from everyday kitchen activities. It gets scratched easily. It also turns yellow from direct exposure to sunlight over a period of time.Marble is a more porous material that makes it absorb liquid into it leaving stains. Granite is extremely dense and is capable of resisting virtually all types of stains.Both granite and marble need sealing to keep the materials beautiful. Prior to or immediately after installation, a professional will apply a sealant to both materials as a measure of preventing damage.Granite requires sealant less frequently as compared to marble.Marble needs more careful cleaning to avoid damage as it is a porous stone.

Sugar And Our Kids: Are We Doing Enough? When my son eats a major sugar bomb, like a piece of cake at a birthday party, I can see his mood change. His generally sweet and cooperative disposition shifts to one of a fired up wild child, which is soon followed by a crash of energy and crankiness. His ability to follow directions, typically a positive trait for my son, wanes as a result as well. Watching this outwardly behavioral roller coaster is like tracing the steps of sugar’s overt and undeniable physiological impact on my son. The sugar is sending signals and triggering reactions in his young and developing mind and body.

Our last conclusion was, installing another linux disto and rewriting on swap file might change IDs of the partitions. So, I noted the new IDs and changed the /boot/grub/grub.conf(in Mint) and /etc/fstab(in opensuse). But did not help me to boot OpenSuse. So, I tried the most basic GRUB command below to boot opensuse part grub>linux (hd0,5)/boot/vmlinuz…-desktop root=UUID=*Id of root partition of opensuse* resume=*id of swap partition This one also did not worked. It goes into the black screen, a white bar appears at the top of the screen and system restart itself. I also attached the partitions. I hope more information help to understand the case.

In addition, I qualify for about 5, 800 for a year in grants through FAFSA. I will be attending a CC next year in California where I will be fully supporting myself financially. However, I still need to pay for almost 900 a month in personal expenses for housing/food/utilities, etc because the city I live in is very expensive and my parents live in another state. (I have been in California supporting myself without going to school for the past three years since I graduated high school and finally have a desire to go to college) I may need to take out loans to support myself while maintaining a solid focus on school to be able to make the grades needed to transfer to the 4-year of my dreams (also an in-state school). I plan to get a job, but balancing a school with a part-time job will not only be stressful (although possible), may not meet me minimum financial need to make it through school at this point in time. My parents are unable to co-sign a loan due to their poor financial situation paired with poor credit. What do my options look like in terms of paying for school? I have already applied for MANY scholarships but have not heard any good news back yet.

The Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan to make sure it became communistic, and the US of course didn't wanted this to happen so they secretly supplied the 'rebels' with arms, the rebels being the Taliban. This deemed highly successful, and the Soviets got their asses kicked and Afghanistan is often seen as the Soviets' Vietnam. Besides the US a lot of countries supported them as well, including Pakistan, UK and Saudi Arabia. Of course it's quite ironic that the US troops that invaded Afghanistan in 2001 and that are still there are attacked and killed with the same weapons the US supplied during the 80s.
