Flea tomorrow!
Inner tanktop from Topshop, Jacket was my mum's, Heels from Aldo.
I'm stealing from my mum's closet again, haha. She don't wear it anymore anyway! I love the thick padded shoulders and its design on it, annnnd the color is a plus! Oh I love my mum. :D
Anyhow, I promised to give a verdict on the Aldo platform pumps, so here goes. Well, it currently has the highest heels in my shoes collection but actually, the height is not the problem. The size is a tad big for me so my heels kind of slips up and down the shoes when I walk, which is extremely irritating. I stuck on paddings at the back of the heel but it's not really helping as much as I want it to. If you guys know anything that can help, please let me know! In all, I love it! If not for that. ):
So anyway, I will be opening a stall with my darling sister tomorrow (only) at Mount Sophia in Dhoby Ghaut. Drop by if you can! I will be selling away my mesh heels because it's a tad bit small for me. ): Selling things cheap, hoping to see you girls (hello fellow Singaporeans!) there. (:
Gosh your mum has really a lot of fab stuff and you are so lucky to wear them too!! Envy Envy!! =D The green jacket looks unique and im so in love with greeen these days..painted my nails in all sorts of shades in green lolx! =P
And yep i might go to the flea market tmr!! Haha!! =D
I'll be watching out for this blog! (:
i looooove this outfit! especially the jacket, it's so on trend! this outfit looks great on you.=) i know it's hot in the tropics but i've been looking for nice structured jackets and blazers recently - no such luck yet. where are you btw? at a toy store?
good luck with the shoes, all i really do is stuff something inside the shoe to make it fit me but you tried that already. be careful though since it's pretty high heeled.
So damn cool... the jacket is perfect, and I love the use of color! xxx
ha i realised you look really tall in these pics (compared to your background). probably the heels #
hmm anyway would really like you to give me some comment on wearing heels cause i dont own any and would really like to try out a pair, but to me its seems rather dreesy for school and out etc => hope you would be able to give me some idea :? ty love
well you can try stuffing the front of the shoes instead of the back i think that would help
Oh i wish i could go to the flea :( Maybe next time when i'm back in sg. Btw loving the heels! Sorry i have no tips on how to make it smaller for you.
if i wear a pair of tights or those insoles in the front, it helps tons (: a 7.5's usually too small for me, and an 8 is too big. haha.
the green jacket looks great! and how i wish i was in Sg now. i think the flea markets there are better compared to Msia.
haha, I like stealing from my mums closet too;)
You look nice, I like your green jacket!
fangzi - Heh, my mum's such a shopaholic in the past AND now. Yes, the green is really lovely! (:
Ruby - Thanks for your support! (:
abby - Thanks! I was at Spotlight, a fabric, craft and home interior megastore. (: And thanks for the advice!!
bella - Heh, thanks!!
janelle - Definitely the heels, I am really short in actual fact. Hahaha. I agree that it's rather dressy for school but whenever I have the chance, I'd seize the opportunity to wear heels when I feel like it.
As for the height of the heels, start on lower heels first and slowly work your way up. (: Platforms are the best, gives you more comfort when you wear higher heels!
Nicole - I'll try that out, thanks for the advice! (:
Cherie - Haha, thanks and it's alright! Yea you should check out the flea markets when you come back to Singapore. How are the flea markets in Australia??
kerry - What are insoles in the front? You bet the paddings that you stick on the sole (front) area of the shoes? (: Thanks for the advice!!
Shantee - Thanks! I don't know about that, but I'd love to check out the flea markets in Malaysia! (:
Alicepoint - Thanks!! (:
yea! those gel/silicon pads you place on the sole(front) bit of the shoes (:
Hello! Great blog! It's one of my favourites! I love that you smile in your pictures. I don't understand why many bloggers don't!
kerry - Will try that out, thanks! (:
Nan - Heh, thank you for your support! (:
wowwww! i super love your outfit! not to mention your mom's awesome blazer! now i know where you inherited your cool style! :) anyway, maybe you could buy sole pads for your heels? the ones which show a silhouette of a foot? :)
nasia - Heh, thanks on my mum's behalf! (: And thank you for the suggestion!!!
I adore ur style!!Btw, nice jacket!
Ur mom must be the stylish girl in her era just like you :D
You should actually try putting the pads inside instead, on the top part. It'll help! I've got a pair of heels that keep slipping off as well, but with the padding, problem all gone! :)
Glynis - The pads are stick-ons specially for the back to prevent blisters and slipping. Apparently, it can only prevent blisters and not the slipping, haha. Thanks for your advice! Will get paddings especially for the inner part of the heels!
LOVE the legging! I LOVE your blog. It's amazing. You're a huge source of inspiration and your clothes are SO funky :D Really, I admire you so much. And your good at blog-talking (?), and not everyone has that gift (including me) ;p
Anyways, you're offically part of my fav' blogroll :D
Noodles - Haha, you flatter me. I'm not good at "blog-talking"! Anyhow, thank you! (: Have linked you too!
Grymt bra Blogg! :D

Cylance Inc.
Irvine, CA -- (July 28, 2014) – Cylance, the first math-based threat detection and prevention company, has been recognized as one of 2014's hottest emerging technology vendors by CRN, the top news source for solution providers and the IT channel. The annual Emerging Vendors list identifies up-and-coming technology vendors that have introduced innovative new products, creating opportunities for channel partners in North America to create high-margin, cutting-edge solutions for their customers.
"We're excited to be included in CRN's top emerging technology vendor list for 2014 as this honor validates feedback from industry analysts, and our global customer base, that we are changing the way companies think about and apply security," said Stuart McClure, CEO of Cylance. "The advancements of malware authors have far outpaced the capacity of the human defender. It's time for the old security models to fade out and bring in the new. Now we can simply trust the math."
Cylance's fundamentally new approach of applying math to combat malware and advanced persistent threats (APTs) continually evolves, learning how to detect new and evolving threats through an algorithmic process much like the human brain. The next generation endpoint CylancePROTECT and network CylanceV product lines detect and block the execution of both advanced and mundane threats in real time without the need for a cloud connection or constant DAT updates, which miss threats and burden resources.
"Solution providers are always on the hunt for the next big technology trend so that they can bring new solutions to their customers before they even know they need them. These vendors are on the forefront of IT innovation and are offering products and services that channel partners can use to stay ahead of the competition," said Robert Faletra, CEO of The Channel Company, publisher of CRN. "We congratulate 2014's Emerging Vendors for creating the next wave of technology that will drive the IT industry forward and for opening the door to new, unique solutions from the IT channel."
Companies included in CRN's 2014 Emerging Vendors list were founded in 2008 or later and are actively working with channel partners in North America. The list, along with information about each vendor, will be published in CRN's August 2014 issue and is also available online at http://www.crn.com/slide-shows/security/300073485/emerging-vendors-2014-security-vendors.htm.
About Cylance® Inc.
Cylance is the only company to offer a preventive cybersecurity solution that stops advanced threats and malware at the most vulnerable point: the endpoint. Applying a revolutionary artificial intelligence approach, the Cylance endpoint security solution, CylancePROTECT®, analyzes the DNA of code prior to its execution on the endpoint to find and prevent threats others can't, while using a fraction of the system resources associated with endpoint antivirus and detect and respond solutions that are deployed in enterprises today.

If you need an X-ray, CT scan, MRI, or other medical imaging service, you'll eventually address an uncomfortable question: How much is this going to cost?
Numerous factors drive up the cost of medical imaging, including heavy equipment expenses. MRI machines, for instance, can easily cost more than a million dollars, and even relatively inexpensive low-field machines require expensive installations.
Medical imaging facilities can generally charge whatever they want for their services, and understandably, many try to recoup their expenses through diagnostic fees. As we've covered before on this site, MRI prices can cost anywhere from a few hundred dollars to more than $13,000. X-ray radiographs can cost from $100 to $1,000, while CT scans can cost $1,200 or more.
Finding Medical Imaging Cost Comparison Resources
The good news is that patients have the right to compare pricing options for diagnostic imaging services. Comparison shopping pays off; choosing the right facility can decrease bills by thousands of dollars without negatively affecting patient care.
Of course, patients also try to move quickly—after all, in medical examinations, time is a critical factor. Unfortunately, this can be problematic, since pricing isn't the only point to consider. You'll also need to determine whether the facility has experienced technicians and up-to-date equipment.
Most people simply aren't able to independently research imaging facilities, since they don't know how to effectively judge equipment capabilities, staff quality, and other important details. Health insurance companies sometimes provide recommendations, but these aren't always tremendously helpful; patients might be expected to travel great distances, and some insurers don't carefully evaluate facility equipment (pricing is, after all, their primary concern).
What to Look For When Choosing Pricing Resources
To be effective, pricing resources need to be local, thorough, and easy to use. We've built Best Price MRI to try to meet these criteria, and we offer a simpler process for comparing MRIs, X-rays, CT scans, and other types of imaging examinations.
We work directly with imaging facilities to determine whether they're able to meet different diagnostic requirements. By tracking equipment at each facility, we're able to tailor our results for each examination—for instance, claustrophobic patients can compare facilities with open MRI machines, and patients that require PET scans won't be accidentally routed to a facility that doesn't offer that service.
Instead of providing simple recommendations, we provide patients with a list of facilities near their zip code, along with instant quotes. We make sure that facilities in our network offer up-front pricing information to prevent hidden fees and other unpleasant surprises.
We also simplify the booking process, and we don't rely on automated software to provide this service. Each case is handled by an experienced specialist who can adequately determine whether a given facility can address the patient's needs. By standardizing the cost comparison process, we're also able to ensure a high level of care; patients receive free CDs with their diagnostic images, which prevents communication issues between the imaging professionals and the case physician.
Whether or not you have health insurance, comparison shopping is absolutely vital to obtaining high-quality diagnostic images at a fair price. Check out our location-based pricing resource here to get started.

How to Treat Sagging Skin
Loose or sagging skin is one of the most common problems as we age. For us to be able to treat or prevent sagging skin, it is important that we know the different factors or causes why our skin sags.
Why Does Skin Sag?
♦ As we age, our underlying structure such as the soft tissues, fats, and bones also loss volume. There is also this collagen and elastin in our skin that gets weak, causing the decrease in skin's density and resilience. The skin becomes less firm and less able to retain its shape.
Causes of Sagging Skin
♦ There are many factors that affect the way the skin looks from the outside. How your skin ages will always depend on your lifestyle, diet, environment, and your habits.
- Sun and the Skin – Sun is one of the major causes of skin aging. Over time, the sun's harmful UV light damages the skin's elastin that causes the skin to sag, stretch, and lose its ability to "snap back' after stretching.
- Loss of Collagen and Elastin – Collagen and elastin is the reason why your skin is firm and has its natural elasticity, As you age, you simply can't produce enough collagen and elastin or the production of your collagen and elastin becomes less. As this happens, the skin has a hard time bouncing back from contracting into facial expression, stretching, and exposure to environmental elements. Without enough collagen and elastin, sagging as well as fine lines and wrinkles can be more of a permanent result.
- Weight Loss – The loss of a large amount of weight over a short period of time can also be the cause why your skin sags. People who lose a lot of weight quickly with extreme diet and exercise and those who undergo bariatric surgery are left with sagging skin.
- Smoking – Aside from its negative health effects, smoking can also contribute to sagging skin. A study shows that smoking dries out the skin and increase effects of premature aging, leaving you with fine lines and wrinkles.
Despite all these skin-sabotaging factors, you are not necessarily stuck with skin that's gone slack.
There are ways on how to prevent and treat sagging skin.
Preventing Sagging Skin
You can't prevent your skin from sagging as you grow old. However, there are healthy habits that you can start practicing right now to slow the process and reduce its visible effects.
- Avoid sun damage. Extreme exposure to the sun is the number cause of premature aging. Always protect our skin by applying a sunscreen and wearing protective clothing and sunglasses whenever possible. Avoid sun exposure when it's at its peak (11 am to 2 pm).\
- Quit smoking. The second biggest cause of premature aging is smoking. If you are a smoker, quit now, it only dries out your skin and makes you look old and stressed out.
- Don't forget your skincare routine. Make sure that your skincare regime includes exfoliation. Keep in mind that the skin needs proper hydration and rejuvenation session.
- Go on a healthy diet. Eat a healthy and balanced diet that supports skin with vitamins A, C, and E, amino acids, silicon, and zinc. Ditch fatty foods and foods with high sugar content, these kinds of foods can cause increased inflammation and premature cellular damage.
- Stay hydrated. To keep your skin moisturized, you must stay hydrated. Drink adequate amount of water to keep your skin cells firm and plump and to prevent fluid retention.
Treat Sagging Skin
There is no way to completely eliminate sagging skin but there are some effective treatments and even home remedies for it.
Moisturizing and Staying Hydrated
♦ If your skin is just beginning to lose tone, a moisturizer is a good choice as your first step in keeping your skin tight. Pick a moisturizer with vitamin A, vitamin C, alpha hydroxy acid or beta hydroxy acid content, may provide some visible tightening. Staying hydrated is another way to keep skin from having a dry, droopy appearance. Taking antioxidant supplement is also a good step to improve your skin's overall health. If this step can't solve your sagging skin problem, you may need to consult our dermatologist to know what other options you have.
Physical Activities
♦ Physical activities like doing exercises that tone the muscles beneath the skin can improve sagging skin.
Laser Skin Tightening Treatment
♦ Laser skin tightening treatment will help you look and feel younger by stimulating collagen regeneration under the surface of the skin. Your wrinkles and fine lines on the forehead, around the eyes and mouth, and on the neck and body, fade away as new collagen fills in the skin's surface.
Natural Home Remedies for Treating Sagging Skin
♥ Egg white – Egg whites contain hydro lipids, a skin nourishing ingredient that helps lift loose skin.
What to do: Simply whisk two egg whites (1 tbsp. plain yogurt, optional) until it becomes foamy. Apply the foamy mixture to your face and neck, leave it for 20 minutes before rinsing off with cool water.
♥ Lemon – Lemon is loaded with vitamin C that helps boost collagen production and astringent properties that help tighten the skin.
What to do: Apply the lemon juice extract on your face and neck, leave it for 5 to 10 minutes before rinsing off with water. Repeat this process two or three times a day and follow up with a good moisturizer.
♥ Aloe vera – Aloe vera is a natural skin moisturizer. It contains malic acid that helps improve the elasticity of the skin, that's why aloe vera is very popular as a home remedy for firming and tightening loose skin.
What to do: Extract the gel from aloe leaf and gently smear it on your face and neck. Leave it for 15 to 20 minutes before rinsing off with lukewarm water. Repeat this step several times a week.
♥ Cucumber – Cucumber is one of the best known natural skin toner with refreshing and rejuvenating effect.
What to do: Extract the cucumber juice by grinding half of it. Squeeze it through the strainer to separate the juice and pulp. Apply the cucumber juice on your face and neck; leave it on until it dries before rinsing off with cool water. You can do this remedy once daily.
These treatments and home remedies can help prevent and tighten sagging skin especially if you follow a regular and healthy skincare regime.

Trail time!
After playing at Wilkes for nearly two hours (it was sunny out!), then indoor soccer, we were starving when we headed to get Sam, who had gone to a neighbor's house for a couple hours. On our way home (Sam on bike, me in car behind with flashers on after repairing a bike chain that had come off) we were trying to reach Dave…"Honey? Are you bringing home Taco Bell? Please? We are so hungry. Please feed us. Please? When are you getting home?" Pooooor Dave. Seriously. Little did I know that he was being hammered with calls from work, too. I started getting them at home. "Hello? Is Mr. Krug available?" I said "No, I'm looking for him, too. I think he's in his phone." HUH? I should just recognize when I am really NOT RIGHT in the head and SHUT UP! Or at least not answer the fone. Phone. I was BONKING.
So tonight I apologized to Dave for being a really lame wife. I was supposed to get his car in for repair today, which was a little unrealistic as you can't just drop a car off at an auto repair place and get it all done in one day. Not when it is a bearing, an axle, sticky windows, tail light, shocks, etc. A lot to check on. But I did at least go by a new place, talk to a guy, arrange a repair date, and tentatively plan to get a tail light fixed tonight before soccer. That was a fine plan, except that it was sunny out and I didn't leave the playground in time to get that tail light fixed. It's like in Hawaii when the surf is up. If the sun is out in January, all bets are off on Mrs. Krug sticking to a plan. Well, I could have, but I thought soccer started at 4:15. Turns out it was 4:30 so I really COULD have after all. Darn. I am just not tracking on some details because I'm processing a lot of other things that probably don't need bandwidth, but they are consuming it anyway. This weekend's lineup is basketball game tomorrow for Sam, Sunday church, then hoops for Ben, then Burns Night, and Monday is a big flag football game for Sam's birthday. It will all be very fun, and everyone is excited, and I hope that Dave stays well and that the boys get over their colds soon, and that I can get a handle on my schedule! Ooops…better reschedule German club from Monday or I will be double booked!

wo-wo-wo- this 3D printer is at the school? How juicy! I've been reading about them for awhile, and in fact, GE is a pioneer in applying 3D printers to industrial uses. Some medical school is making hearts by 3D printing and using the "new" heart to help surgeons. Surgeons can practice on the 3D heart over and over again, and when they get to the real heart, there's much less mystery going on. I loved your post with the diary of the pseudo-scatterbrained mom trying to figure out her schedule. Love you, honey. — Gramma

Dinner for Four
December 06, 2009
Until our older child went away to college, dinner at our house was a command performance. The four of us ate together unless one of us had a compelling reason not to be there. We had some standard meals that worked for everyone. Not a week went by without Rice Krispie chicken or hamburgers (cooked outside no matter what the temperature). When the kids were in high school, sports practice may have determined the hour we ate, but never whether we ate together.
Those days seem like ancient history. Except for two years ('95-'97), the children haven't lived in the same town as we have since college, and the four of us without guests or family just never happens. Except for last Sunday. Jeremy's family had left for Maryland and Seth wasn't leaving for Brazil for a couple of days, and that left the four of us, just like old times.
I felt like I was giving a dinner party. I prepared my best marinated flank steak. Peter made polenta. We lit candles and had a glass of wine. We all commented about how long it had been and how unusual it was to be just us.
It was over way too soon.

Primary Health Properties is raising £38.6m from an issue of new shares to fund expansion.
The healthcare property investor, which was one of the nine listed companies to convert into a REIT on 1 January, is carrying out a placing and open offer of 9.3m shares at 430p each, which is underwritten by Numis Securities.
The share issue coincided with the company's half-year results to 31 December 2006, which showed a 7% increase in net asset value to 421p a share. Pretax profits were down 4% to £9m.
The purchase in December of Cathedral Healthcare added nine properties valued at £30.9m, which increased the size of Primary Health's portfolio to £260m.
''The first half of our financial year has started strongly with all of our key performance indicators rising,' said managing director Harry Hyman.

the voice of the heart.
I've always been told that I follow my heart too much... That I let my emotions get the best of me. I can't argue with this. I have been known to let my emotions engulf any rumour of rationality that I may possess at any one time. People would say, "you're not called Sunni Hart for nothing," when they really meant, "you're a fucking crazy bitch." Today I've come to realise that it isn't my heart that causes this at all. It's easy to mistake "feelings" as characteristics of the heart but it is in fact your head that tells you that you're losing, whether it's an argument or your grasp on life. It's your head that is seduced by the exterior "things" that effect your ego and make you mad or sad or disappointed or whatever. To listen to your heart is to be still and in control. To keep your perspective on it all and to remember that something good has happened to you at a point before this bad one, and will again in the very near future. Your heart is your metronome. Keep in time, don't loose control, listen to the beat. Remember the essence of you and of life. Nobody and no thing should knock that beat out of time.
More on that later...
4th January 2011.
I realise now that this perspective is a very small part of what the heart is. In the time of writing it I was trying to embrace these raw emotions of hurt and also try to understand somebody else's behaviour. In that vain, it makes sense to put it down to ego...the head, but it is also self-seeking. It does not encapsulate the entire arena of the hearts abilities, however. The heart can rage and scream and be euphoric. It can be overwhelmingly loud. We've all experienced this. Perhaps it happens when you aren't competing with the white noise of the world. When you're away from the traffic and the buildings and the other players in the game. When the world is quiet, your head has no reason to yell and your heart can sing.

nah. don't believe it for a second. all that being in control, remembering the essence of your life, etc. is just some bullshit that middle management wants us to keep swallowing so we can love our prison cells and our wardens. way i see it, your heart is a beast that does the best it can to put up with the shocks of life. and the shocks keep coming. keeping your perspective is a good thing, but your perspective will never be reality, because we're all just monkeys with big prefrontal cortexes. sure, we can think and love and scream and bake a cake and wiggle our toes, but we have no centre, except in people's perceptions and memories, which are always fucked. that centre was cut out of all of us when we were born. it's an expanding universe, more chaotic, more complex, and there's no escape - your heart isn't a metronome, it's a blind, hurt and angry bull with a borrowed drumkit. and yeah, sometimes the bull calms down a bit and even smiles and starts grooving on an idea. but he's no more in control than a battery's in control of an alarm clock.
but i don't mind if you prove me wrong, i don't mind at all.

Graphical Methods in Energy Conservation
MetadataShow full item record
It goes without saying that more efficient use of electrical energy results in savings for both companies and their customers, but effective communication of such information to customers, clients, management, and anyone else without technical backgrounds can be difficult. It's often helpful to provide them with a method of easily determining for themselves the potential for conservation and improvement in their old facilities. Graphical techniques can help accomplish this. This paper will describe a nomogram which will allow nontechnical personnel to calculate the cost savings from using more efficient electrical equipment. Users of the chart must only draw a series of straight lines to determine the final answer, and knowledge of the underlying equation is needed. Nomograms also allow quick evaluation of "what ifs" without resorting to computers, and they can be readily employed in proposals, reports, articles, or in handouts to make a point. Though not a new technique, nomograms are often overlooked as a simple but effective means of communicating with laymen on technical subjects.

A man sustainded an ankle injury. He was treated by team members and evacuated by stretcher to an ambulance
A 65-year-old male was reported as collapsed on the path up to Grizedale Tarn. We quickly confirmed that it was the Tongue Ghyll and set off. We were notified that an air ambulance was on its way from Newcastle. We both arrived at the same time. He was noticably dehydrated, and was likely suffering from drinking lake water earlier in the day. The man was treated with fluids and then stretchered to the air ambulance and evacuated to hospital.
We were requested to assist Patterale MRT when a man was reported approximately 24 hours overdue at a rendesvous. Various areas where searched and the man turned up at his meeting point, but later than expected.
The Team assisted by the Patterdale Team searched for two teenage boys from Warrington who hid behind some rocks and became lost during a school party hike. Found hitch hiking on road in Grasmere.
A 78 year old man from Staveley, Cumbria collapsed with heat exhaustion. Evacuated by stretcher to Ambulance.
A woman slipped and sustained an ankle injury. The team was called and she was treated and evacuated.
A 46-year-old man slipped and sustained an ankle injury. Luckily (for us!) he was close to the bottom of the track, so we didn't have to go to far.
A man slipped crossing a stream and suffered injuries to his pelvic and hip area. He was treated by team members and evacuated by stretcher.

Team RoadShow was founded as the Road Show USA during the fall of 2002. Road Show USA now refers exclusively to the self supported cross-country charity ride that occurred the summer of 2003 (June 5, 2003 - August 15, 2003). Road Show USA raised nearly $5,000 dollars for the Shriner's Childrens Hospitals, a non-profit organization providing free burn and orthopaedic care to children. The trip was an overwhelming success, and raised money through pledges and juggling performances along the way. The group of nine riders (7 for the first half, 8 for the second half) carried all of their gear and juggling equipment with them, slept in parks and back yards, road up mountains, through freezing rain, traffic, and 110 degree heat. RoadShowUSA.org is the archived website for the trip, and includes a road journal and photo gallery. I encourage anyone interested in our history to read that site. It was quite the adventure.
The trip was such an overwhelming success that the members decided to create Team RoadShow for future cycling events. It was conceived during RAGBRAI (Register's Annual Great Bike Ride Across Iowa) of 2003 (where Road Show USA was very well recieved), and consists of jugglers, bikers, performers, musicians, and other creative types who are joined together in the love of bicycle touring and various performance arts. Team RoadShow will probably make it's maiden voyage during the 2004 RAGBRAI, but also plans to make an appearance at BRAG (Bike Ride Across Georgia) and other cross-state and day long rides in the future. For current plans visit our events page.
Currently Team RoadShow is no longer primarily a charity organization, as we are all fairly poor and need our performing proceeds to fund our biking trips. However, charity rides will most likely occur again in the future, and it is up to the performers at the various rides decide what to do with the performance proceeds.

I thought I'd cast a net and see if by any chance anyone had a Matheson hunting modern kilt they were considering selling. I'd need a 36-ish waist. From what I understand of the measurements I'd need a length of about 21", maybe 21.5".
On the off chance someone is browsing who might have one, I'm also keeping my eye out for an Argyll jacket that'd be about a 48, definitelity not long, possibly short. Big shoulders, barrel-chested, arms on the shorter side. Totally depends on how it was made. Some regular jackets are okay, some are ridiculously long, down to the tip of my thumb. I guess they figure it's impossible to need a 48 if you're 5'9" (first thing in the morning, before gravity takes hold and pulls me down). Ideally, a 48 with an "athletic" cut.

Here's a list of 12 women who're creating wow experiences in the tech industry in India. Enjoy the read and stay inspired. Also, a very happy #BusinessWomen'sDay.
1) Aruna Jayanthi, CEO India Capgemini
Since 2011, Jayanthi has been heading Capgemini in India. She has also been the Chairperson of Board of Governors of National Institute of Technology Calicut since November 2014. She refuses to believe that the IT industry discriminates against women. Here's what she said.
I have worked in the IT industry for the last 27 years, and I know it doesn't exist. Our growth rates are so high, our industry is so hungry for talent, why would there be any discrimination? Get over this.
2) Vanitha Narayanan, Managing Director, IBM India Private Limited
Having joined IBM in the U.S. back in 1987, Vanitha Narayanan has been in the tech industry for more than 26 years. Appointed the MD of IBM India Private Limited in 2013, Narayanan is responsible for managing sales of IBM in India, as well as Nepal, Sri Lanka, and Bangladesh. Prior to this, she has also served as the Vice President of IBM's Communications sector in the Asia Pacific region, as well as the Global Vice President for telecom solutions department of the brand. She's also the chairperson of American Chamber of Commerce in India.
Here's one of her shareworthy quotes -
Sometimes, tremendous innovation can come in small packages.
3) Debjani Ghosh, South Asia Managing Director, Sales and Marketing, Intel Corporation
The Vice President in Sales and Marketing Group and Managing Director for South Asia at Intel Corporation, Ghosh has been in the IT industry since she joined the company in 1996. Initially tasked with developing a consumer marketing program for Intel India, she later proved to be instrumental in education programs organised by Intel across the entire Asia-Pacific region. In 2013, she was ranked amongst the 25 Most Powerful Women in Fortune India. She's also the president of Manufacturers' Association for Information Technology (MAIT)
Here're her thoughts on perfect woman
You have to accept that the definition of a perfect woman is a moving target. Yesterday, maybe, the perfect woman was a domestic goddess, but today maybe it is a great professional, a leader, a CEO, and your perfect woman may not be my perfect woman.
4) Kirthiga Reddy, Director of Online Operations and Head of India Office at Facebook
The first employee of Facebook India, Reddy actually had to open the office shutters on her first day at the job, back in 2010. Since then, she has worked towards developing Facebook India as one of the company's centres of excellence across the globe.
Here're her thoughts on working for Facebook -
There isn't any other company that is touching lives in such a fundamental way-fulfilling the basic human need to connect, share and be part of a larger community. I am humbled to have had the opportunity to work for a company that is changing the world, making it more open and connected.
5) Neelam Dhawan, MD, Hewlett-Packard India
As the Managing Director of all of HP's operations in India, Dhawan is responsible for ensuring profitability for the brand's businesses in the region. Prior to this, she has held the position of Managing Director at Microsoft India for 3 years, where she focused on improving the company's operating efficiency and financial performance. In 90s, Dhawan was with IBM and she set up India's first channel network for Tier-II towns, to sell IBM machines.
Here's what she thinks about work-life balance
The moment you tell yourself that your family and career are equal, you will make time for both.
6) Kumud Srinivasan, President, Intel India
An economics graduate from the Calcutta University, Srinivasan is presently responsible for managing Intel's operations across India. Her tasks include overall business strategy development, engineering, and innovation for market development. She's the first woman president of Intel in India.
Her advice to young women looking to build shining careers -
"Ask yourself why you are doing what you are doing".
7) Roshni Nadar, Executive Director and CEO, HCL Corporation
The only child of HCL founder Shiv Nadar, Roshni presently holds the positions of both the CEO and Executive Director of the Company. Apart from this, she is also a trustee of the Shiv Nadar Foundation, which operates the Chennai-based, not-for-profit Sri Sivasubramaniya Nadar College of Engineering. Always interested in helping people in need and improving the condition of the society in general, Roshni received the NDTV Young philanthropist of the Year in 2014.
Here's what she thinks about being daughter of Shiv Nadar -
Being the daughter of a billionaire is unimportant; being the daughter of parents who are superlative in their achievements is truly the best part. To live with, learn from and have access to parents who are role models to many is a blessing.
8) Srimathi Shivashankar, Associate Vice President of Diversity & Sustainability, HCL Technologies
Here's how Shivashankar explains her journey to one of the top positions at HCL from her humble background as a village girl from Tamil Nadu.
You don't wait for choices to appear, but you move on by making your own way.
In an interview with YourStory she describes her determination to learn English when she was a kid. Here's an excerpt from the interview -
She was enrolled in a Tamil medium school in her village, and would be embarrassed whenever her English-speaking cousins visited. At that young age, Srimathi understood the importance of speaking in English. "I somehow knew that speaking in English would make me more assertive. Initially I used to cry because I could not keep up with my cousins. But later, I decided that I would instead learn English."
Before joining HCL, Shivashankar worked at Infosys and had also helped in setting up one of India's first BPOs.
9) Frenny Bawa, Former Managing Director, RIM India
She increased the footprint of RIM from 0 points of presence to 4800 in India over just 3 years. Here's how she did it. Prior to joining RIM she held several senior—level positions at TELUS, a leading national telecommunications company based in Canada. In 2011, she was named one of the 10 most powerful women in India by Forbes magazine.
In the Techovation Challenge launch hosted by the Aga Khan Education Board for Canada she said -
She had turned her "restlessness and inability to sit still" into a personal commitment to seek out new opportunities – often in new fields – which have taken her on professional adventures across the globe.
10) Rekha Menon, Chairperson, Accenture India
A gold medallist from the XLRI School of Business, Rekha Menon is Accenture's first woman head in India. She started her career at Eicher ( tractor-manufacturer) in 1983. In an interview she recalls her first day at Eicher
Everyone stopped working and stared at me- they were surprised to see a young woman walk into the factory full of men. "That was the place I used to take my manager's jeep to use the washroom at his house," she recalls, because there weren't any for women in the factory.
She loves building things from scratch which is why she was at two start-ups in Bangalore - Talisma and Aditi Technologies. She's also helped start up two not-for-profit organisations - Pratham Books and Akshara Foundation.
Being an entrepreneur requires a different DNA, it requires a lot of self belief, and ability to take risk.
11) Sangita Singh, CEO, Healthcare & Lifesciences, Wipro
She's spent 21 years of her career at Wipro. Her perseverance and determination has helped Wipro expand its healthcare and Lifesciences vertical in a competitive environment. She was recognized as the Young Global Leader 2010 by the World Economic Forum. The Time magazine called her "Outsourcing Wunderkid". She is also the recipient of Stevie Award for "Best Asian Woman Executive".
There's always a woman behind a successful man. We've heard this many times. But with Sangita it was her husband who was behind her career ambition. Here's an excerpt from her interview with Yourstory -
I was lucky. I give all the credit for my career growth to my husband. I was married to be a devout wife and be happy raising many children as a part of that. Ours was a very hard-core arranged marriage. Within 4-5 days of our wedding, my husband said, "What do you want to do with your life". I thought it was a strange question! And he said, "Listen I don't want a working woman, I want a career woman. We both need to do really well and work hard to excel in our careers". Those seeds were sown by my husband.
Her biggest university is
But I have only learnt from my failures — that has been my biggest university. When things don't go well, I sit back and think how I could have done it better. And then I go out and seek anybody and everybody who can coach me on the facets that I'm not good at, or even if I'm good, how to make them sharper. I also observe people who are good role models, and these could even be my subordinates, or outsiders like Vinita Bali (MD of Britannia).
12) Chiki Sarkar - Founder Juggernaut, A Mobile-first Publishing Firm
Earlier a publisher with Penguin Random House India, Chiki Sarkar has now gone electronic with her new publishing venture Juggernaut. She along with Durga Raghunath, former vice president (growth) at Zomato have founded Juggernaut with the help of investors like Nandan Nilekani, Fab India's William Bissell, and Boston Consulting Group's India managing director Neeraj Aggarwal. Daughter of Aveek Sarkar, of the media group ABP, she consciously chose not to join her family business.

Working with RSPB, the UK's largest conservation charity, ICC Wales will be playing its part in ensuring birdsong does not fall silent in Wales.
The newly opened meetings venue will join other landmark buildings across Wales including the National Assembly for Wales, Wales Millennium Centre, Transport for Wales Stations, National Museums of Wales, Dŵr Cymru and National Parks in flooding the indoors with recordings of birdsong.
In May the RSPB secured a surprise UK top 20 music chart hit when it released a track of pure birdsong and also released a birdsong radio app, that has been downloaded by over 22,000 people all to raise awareness of the number of birds vanishing from our skies.
Following the popularity of the track the charity is hoping to once again bring birdsong back into everyone's life as a reminder of what we all stand to lose if the crisis facing nature is not addressed. 'Let Nature Sing' got the public talking and highlighted the shocking news that the UK has lost over 40 million birds in just half a century, and with the publication of the RSPB State of Nature report it is clear that there is no let-up in the decline of Welsh wildlife.
ICC Wales is among the many businesses that will be playing its part with the support of Public Health Wales, which is hosting its annual conference at the venue this week.
ICC Wales Chief Executive Ian Edwards said: "ICC Wales is a venue which embraces its location alongside ancient woodland and we take every opportunity to embrace the outdoors with floor to ceiling views of the Coldra Woods from our meeting rooms, and outdoor breakout areas and ponder pods. We have a living wall of plant life inside the building and the abundant natural daylight in the atrium and throughout the building will provide the perfect setting for hearing the birdsong provided by this fantastic initiative. It is particularly fitting that we are playing host to the Public Health Wales Conference as we celebrate the well-being benefits of our wildlife and natural environment."
Tamsin Davies, RSPB Cymru says: "In Wales we are lucky to be surrounded by so much amazing wildlife, and this is something we are rightly proud of as we celebrate the landscapes, plants and animals we share our country with. But, sadly all is not well and simple pleasures such as the soothing music of our birds seem to be growing quieter.
"So earlier this year we had a simple idea of bringing birdsong back into people's life to highlight the threat to our natural world. Releasing the single and birdsong radio began a national conversation as across Wales everyone started talking about what birdsong means to them, and what it would mean if nature were to fall silent. We are pleased to be working with ICC Wales to send a strong message that we all care about our natural world and are concerned that if nothing is done we might lose these amazing singers."
During the RSPB Cymru's Let Nature Sing Takeover, birdsong will be played across Wales in offices and public places. Anyone interested in finding out more about the Let Nature Sing Takeover, hosting their own event or how to listen to birdsong radio should visit www.rspb.org.uk/letnaturesing

Reuters, AFP - Retired triple world champion Niki Lauda expects Lewis Hamilton to be even better next season now that the Briton has secured his third Formula One world title.
The Austrian, who won in 1975, 1977 and 1984 and is now non-executive chairman of Hamilton's Mercedes team, said that he could see the 30-year-old adding to his tally in years to come.
"Yes, for sure. If he goes quicker every year, like he did this year, he will continue like this," said Lauda.
"He's better (than last year). If you're not better all the time, you don't win world championships," added the man who in 2012 persuaded Hamilton to leave McLaren and join Mercedes with the promise of success.
"It's very simple. He was better this year and he will be better next year."
Mercedes motorsport head Toto Wolff said it was up to the team to keep providing Hamilton with a car as dominant as the one he has enjoyed racing in the past two years.
"I think he is capable of winning more if we are able to build a car that is going fast, and I have no doubt in our organisation, and there are many more trophies to come," said Wolff.
Hamilton, who has always spoken of his desire to match the three titles of the late Brazilian Ayrton Senna, said he would not need further motivation now he had achieved that boyhood dream.
"The motivation part is really easy, it's kind of like I was born with it so it never goes away. I really don't feel any worries about that," he told reporters after celebrating his 10th win in 16 races.
"Winning is winning and it never gets old. I still have the motivation for the next race, I want to win the next race. It just rolls over. Everything I compete in I want to win. I've not the need to search for motivation at all."
Hamilton had spoken before Sunday of how it would feel to join Senna in the all-time standings, likening it to climbing Everest and having no higher peak to climb, but he made clear he had recalibrated his ambitions.
"Niki told me about the day he just didn't enjoy it any more. Until that happens then I guess I'll keep going," he said.
"While I got this championship, I really don't feel that's it, I feel like it's just the beginning. So I'm just going to keep pushing.
"Now I've equalled it (Senna's three), I'm not looking at the others like (Alain) Prost has four, or (Juan Manuel) Fangio has five," added Hamilton. "I'm now just on my own road and will see how far I can go."
- - - - - - -
The following is a compilation of key quotes after Hamilton sealed his third world title by winning the United States Grand Prix on Sunday:
"This is the greatest moment of my life," - Hamilton.
"I owe so much to them - my mum, my dad, my family, with all they sacrificed,"- Hamilton.
"I remember my first British Championship when my dad drove me home singing 'We Are The Champions'," - Hamilton on his early days.
"Something like that has never happened to me ever. Can't explain it. Really tough to lose the lead and the win like that," - Nico Rosberg after his error on lap 49 which handed the title to Hamilton.
"Lewis was almost faultless this year and the car didn't let him down. It is just an amazing feeling," - Mercedes team chief Toto Wolff.
"Nico could easily have won the race but Lewis drove his race to win it. It was Nico's to lose and that is what happened," - Former three-time world champion Jackie Stewart.

In response to the ridiculous editorial (thanks TPB!) a few days ago, I typed a letter into the Edmonton Journal, and they printed it today (9 June 2009), merely improving the grammar in a few points, and of course, changing "tar sands growth" to "oilsands development" (the T word isn't allowed in the Journal).
I also have to ask, what's up with the main title they gave me?
Anyways, here's the letter:
Premier's advisers should focus on issues, not bash the media
Don't single out Mason
Re: "Stalin charges out of bounds," Editorial, June 7.
It's noble of The Journal to stand up for Premier Ed Stelmach against the mere words being thrown at him by Brian Mason.
Unfortunately, the editorial writer's blinders erased the history of comparisons that have been tossed about the legislature recently.
On May 25, 2009, Liberal MLA Kevin Taft compared a different government bill to "the old Soviet system."And on Oct. 22, 2008, Stelmach, clearly having no personal quarrels about Soviet references, said that Liberal calls to control oilsands development "sounds more like what they were doing in the former Soviet Russia."
So before you call one honourable member out of line for his comments, please run a Hansard search and see that all parties perform as"unacceptably" as you consider the NDP to.

RIM BlackBerry PlayBook to Cost $499.99 at Office Depot; Coming in Late April
Earlier, we have seen a lot of rumors that had suggested that RIM will be bringing down the cost of its iPad killer, the BlackBerry PlayBook tablet, to less than $500. Now, according to a new leak, the device might cost $499.99 at Office Depot.
The leaked screenshot from Office Depot suggests that the upcoming tablet will have the above said price tag. That price will be for the device's 16GB WiFi only version.
And that's not all. The leak also talks about a launch date of "week 17". If that is true, the device might be released somewhere between April 24th and 30th of this year.
But this actually makes sense. The above said release date is just a few days before RIM's BlackBerry world conference scheduled to be held in Orlando.
But there hasn't been any official confirmation on the leaked price. We will keep you updated on the matter.
Just to remind you, the BlackBerry PlayBook comes with a 1GHz Dual Core Processor, 1GB of RAM, a 7 inch LCD multitouch capacitive display with a resolution of 1024 x 600, microUSB, micro HDMI and DLNA connectivity, WiFi 802.11 a/b/g/n, Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR, and it will be powered by the QNX platform with multitasking.

UPPERMILL'S popular Cross Keys Inn has temporarily closed its doors for an extensive refurbishment.
Landlords Craig Wilkes and Dave Devine insist they will maintain the traditional country character of the inn, which is considered by many as a Saddleworth treasure and first opened as a tavern in 1763.
They revealed the refurbishment of the Grade 2 listed building, which is also in a conservation area, will include new furniture and re-plumbing and wiring of the property.
They said: "This refurbishment has been being dealt with including design etc for two and 1/2 years.
"We love this building and what it's history stands for. We are using real aged dark oak for bar and also restoring things that have been hidden for many years.
"The Cross Keys will always remain a traditional country inn, welcoming walkers, dogs and local groups as it always has, with real home cooked food as always.
"The main thing is we will have new furniture as most won't realise all this is down to re-plumbing and wiring.
"We hope this helps anyone who has doubts we would ruin one of the treasures of Saddleworth."
Meantime, the pub is open in the barn with a full drinks range for anyone who would like to call in.
The response on social media to the works has been positive, with locals excited by the refurbishment but with a general worry to protect the inn's heritage still present.
Responding to the news on Facebook, one local posted: "Hope it goes well. You've done wonders with the place since you have been there. Looking forward to seeing the result."
Another added: "Can't wait to see the transformation".
The Cross Keys currently attracts a wide range of locals, from dog walkers to local groups, with the Oldham Mountain Rescue Association holding its regular meetings in the barn.
Last year, they were crowed 'Beer Ambassador of the Year' by JW Lees brewery for a second time thanks to their extensive, mouth-watering range of ales and lagers on offer.

This was an extremely quick read; however the subject matter is extremely heavy and thought provoking, so I recommend reading this when you have the time to devote to it. Although this is a very heavy read, it is written beautifully and in such a way that the heaviness of the subject matter doesn't detract from the beauty of the writing itself (if that makes any sense). Basically it is written well enough that I didn't feel boggged down by all of the depressing (if you think about it) subject matter.

Last issue's 99c issue brought a lot of people on board this superhero title from Boom. It answered questions and set up all sorts of new ones, introduced the implications of a supergod, and ended on a series of cliffhangers. Let's see if new readers have been given reason to stay.
Well the mystery of exactly what is up with Plutonian deepens, the Superman that has gone badly wrong, as we see his childhood and his own reaction to the peril of other children and the beginnings of a potential plan from humanity against its new deity. It's also a testament to the idea of language and ideas being the only way to take down something omniscient, an atheist subtext emerging in the actions of humans given a foe, something that once served them but is now a destructive force.
Peter Krause's art is a pleasing mix of Steve Yeowell and Chris Sprouse, which flows well, with excellent panel-to-panel storytelling and delineation of characters, something so essential when readers are dropped into a world with a great history to take for granted. We need to feel up to speed instantly and this brings a classic superhero innocence to the world gone wrong. But certain scenes that are meant to be horrific however do come over in a slightly bland fashion, and don't have anything close to the impact that, well, a group of dead skeletal children might normally, and probably was intended to, convey. The juxtaposition between the style and the subject doesn't so much create a jarring clash, as dull the effect.
Mark Waid deals with the kind of superhero themes more often played with today by like likes of Morrison, Millar and Ellis. His approach is underplayed, less obvious, with a greater emphasis on superhero reality being portrayed, themes less out front, less visually expressed, more of a subtext even in something so focused as Irredeemable or Empire. The book lets the visuals be superheroics, and the words address the themes. It initially strikes me as less powerful, its certainly less shocking and impactful as a result, but maybe it just seeps under the skin…
Irredeemable #6 is on sale from Boom! in the USA today and tomorrow in the UK.

Rifles and shotguns are both weapons which can be used for hunting. Both weapons are capable of firing ammunition with some degree of accuracy, depending on the specific model of that weapon. Rifles and shotguns are both weapons which are fired while the weapons is on the shoulder of the shooter.
Rifles are generally very accurate weapons because of the way they are constructed. The ammunition comes through the barrel and then it is projected with motion that propels it directly at the target.
The original rifle consisted of a compound which was known as black powder. The substance used to fire a rifle is now cordite or nitrocellulose, both of which are more beneficial than the original black powder was. Rifles may also be fired using compressed air, such as a rifle which would be utilized in hunting.
In fact, rifles are used for several recreational purposes, including hunting. Rifles may also be utilized for target practice and replica rifles are used in sports such as paint ball and laser tag.
The purpose of a rifle may dictate the caliber of weapon. For instance, hunters often use a lower caliber rifle when they are hunting small game. Yet, hunters may use a larger caliber if they are hunting game such as bears. Lower caliber bullets are able to more easily penetrate game, but larger caliber bullets have more power. The caliber of weapons which is allowed to be used for hunting, will likely be dictated by state law.

Remember: the wealth inequality debate blew up under a Democratic government. Mass protests, OWS, all that stuff. Despite being an empowered "labor" party, they did absolutely ****ing nothing about the situation. Then 4 years later, Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton still felt like it was super fine to give closed-door campaign speeches to Wall Street executives.
I'm not trying to single out the US or anything. The same thing happened in Canada and most other countries. This is absolutely a conspiracy, but it's not the sort of conspiracy you've alluded to: Liberal parties worldwide realize they no longer have any credibility on economic issues, can't effectively campaign on economic issues without a platform of radical reform, and they have too many business associations to risk threatening that. In the calculus of a professional partisan it simply makes more sense to double down on social justice issues (e.g. have an overnight epiphany that gay people are people). And if loopy people end up dominating the news cycle, so much the better, because at least they aren't talking about how badly they've lost the plot on economics.
Nobody who works for a living should support either mainstream liberal or conservative parties.

The Democrats promising unenforceable, unquantifiable social reform isnt responsible for BLM, for example. People obviously cared about issues of racial inequality and police brutality.
I'd also add that no, this stuff is very obviously not as popular among the democratic base as you suggest it is. The only reason Donald Trump is president today is because of Clinton's labor union losses (which you should note, just for completeness, happened across all demographic groups). Economics was the most important issue in 2016, Clinton had nothing to say about it, and she lost. Economics is still the most important issue and it still will be next year, no matter how much social liberals crow about how racist and transphobic people are. Billionaire child rapist who has bad economic ideas will always beat a saintly nun who effectively has no platform.
No, nobody is saying the ideas originate that way. They occur naturally. In my view at least it's that the ideas only gain party prominence due to them being mostly unenforceable issues that you can spend lots of time speaking about. It's the party platform people responsible, not whoever thought the ideas to begin with.
People are generally more positive about the economy from the polls, but I disagree that people are actually all that invested in race issues over making ends meet still.
So Wookie posted those typical Republican Trump-Trucks in the other thread but I think it's more fitting here.
Tesla doesn't compete with the other auto companies. I mean, some offer competing products, but none of these manufacturers are really super interested in breaking into the EV market. In fact, Tesla's existence benefits them. You see, auto makers are given a certain number of emissions credits. These credits are "spent" to manufacture and sell vehicles which are energy inefficient. Large trucks are energy inefficient. However, large trucks are one of the only areas American car manufacturers excel in, and they're a huge source of profit. So these companies would like to sell more. Tesla cars are technically pollution-free, so they get credits they don't need. So they sell them off to the other auto manufacturers.
So in reality GM has interest in keeping Tesla around.
(got ya before the ninja edit!)
#MeToo. What role did politicians have in fostering that movement? Two New York Times journalists printed allegations about Harvey Weinstein and the result was a massive grassroots social movement. It was eventually co-opted by politicians, for example, when allegations came out about Al Franken, and some politicians tried to harness some of that energy to further their personal presidential ambitions. But it was primarily a grassroots movement that was dedicated towards changing civil society rather than trying to promote change at a political level. Despite all the talk in the media about "the year of the woman" in 2018 (months after #MeToo), Democrats ran on protecting healthcare from the GOP.
Or how about BLM? It's not infrequently said that BLM arose partially out of frustration amongst African Americans that we hadn't made more progress on racial issues despite having an African American president. It was, in some respects, politicians' relative silence on the issue that brought the issue to the fore in civil society.
Or fourth-wave feminism. What about the 2012 elections precipitated its rise in 2012? In the wake of OWS, that election was primarily about economic issues.
Is it really so difficult to believe that people actually care about these issues because they are perceived to be historic injustices in their own right? The civil rights movement, Black Panthers, the March on Washington -- the racial politics of the 1960s don't require the implosion of liberalism to be explained.
Gloria Steinem? (Obviously not -- I'm being flippant.) Woke politics was already a factor and had been for several years before the 2016 election. I'm not sure the timing really supports the idea that the 2016 election made them more prominent. I'd still claim that HRC tried to exploit them to her advantage, even if it turned out to be a losing strategy.

I've been pretty convinced by some of the more empirical work being done (some by Zach Goldberg, and cited by Matt Yglesias, but also by others) that suggests that the Democratic party has become a more "racially liberal" party, and that the development has been brought about primarily by white liberals, rather than by racial minorities themselves. Racial minorities are generally more conservative on racial issues than their white liberal counterparts.
It's true that 84% of voters in 2016 said that economic issues were "very important," so that's obviously true nearly across the board. And I agree that the focus on social issues largely at the exclusion of economic issues was a major misstep on the part of the Democrats. They very well may lose in 2020 because they're continuing to pursue that strategy; after all, many working class voters are being driven away from the party because it's increasingly irresponsive to their demands. They aren't an obvious part of the Democratic coalition anymore, and, yes, that's often described by liberals as motivated by "racial resentment" rather than economic grievance.
But also: yes. Activists, journalists, etc.
I am SO outraged by how racist the cops are, I might even vote in 3 years

Lol, Trump and his 1D chess are so galaxy brain that the pentagon is warning us about it.
Interesting to see more than a couple Canadian-born centrists who have become influential in the liberal American intelligencia. David Brooks writing for the New York Times, David Frum writing for the Atlantic...
Maybe this is what the right looks like in a normal country? Or is the 'Canadians are polite and respectful' trope true enough here to stop them from going full Fox News/Glenn Beck on us like the rest of the American right seems to have gone...
The US has the largest GDP per capita of any country that isn't either trivially small, a tax haven, or a major natural resource exporter.
France has extremely powerful trade unions, and significant social welfare spending, but it doesn't do as well because it doesn't have massive amount of resources that it can use to subsidize it.

Neoconservatism is often tossed around as a term of rebuke which means little more than "hawkish Republican." But in the stricter sense of the term, where Neoconservatism is effectively the thought of Irving Kristol and his followers, there's an emphasis on humanism and virtue that is somewhat similar to that "Canadian" conservative sensibility. I mean, it's one of the most respectable (in my view) forms of conservatism, and a form that's actually deserving of the name. It's a form of conservatism which emphasizes the role of the humanities in distilling and promoting virtuous behavior and good habits of mind. Brooks is definitely that sort of conservative.
Kind of interesting to think about why the US severed itself from British traditions. I suspect a large part of it is the country's republicanism (small-R). Republicanism frequently advocates creating an ethos/culture based on civic participation -- one which was intended to replace religion as the basis of social fabric, and also a new social order that was antithetical to the traditional, monarchical social order. So there's that. Another thought is that it may have something to do with the religious pluralism of the US compared to the dominance of Anglicanism in Canada.

Maybe the whole point of the Founding Fathers was to harness the ideas of the Enlightenment, in order to return us to a social order that was closer to that of the Greeks and Romans (rather than that of the Catholic church). And, well, at face value, it's all pretty much true, according to what we learned in school, right?

Crypto Exchanges
This section will cover information about cryptocurrency exchanges. We will continually add in it reviews about industry leaders and relevant market merchants for the exchange of crypto-crypto, fiat-crypto, and crypto-fiat assets.
Only 19% of Bitcoin's Supply is Traded
Only 3.5 million, an equivalent of 19% of Bitcoin's circulating supply is moved around by traders, while the rest is being HODLed by investors, a new report by blockchain analysis company Chainalysis reveals. Another 20% of the total supply is considered 'lost' or in dead-end addresses and lost/forgotten wallets. And, of course, the millions of dollars worth of Bitcoin reserved by Bitcoin's creator Satoshi Nakamoto.
Bitmex Vs. Deribit Vs. Bybit: Which one is the Best Crypto-derivative...
Cryptocurrency derivatives are an ideal investment option for individuals looking to generate more returns from the crypto market. Although they appeal most to experienced traders, trading derivatives is the less risky alternative to the standard cryptocurrency trading.
Bittrex Crypto Exchange Review 2020: Is The Exchange Legit Or Another...
Bittrex has time and again been ranked among leading crypto exchange platforms across the world. And some of the factors that keep it ahead of competition include the fact that it embraces advanced technologies in guaranteeing system security as well as the wide range of cryptocurrencies one can trade on this platform. We attribute these to the fact that Bittrex is one of the few exchanges that haven't lost its client assets to crypto hackers.
Poloniex Review 2020: A Safe Crypto Exchange Or Scam?
Poloniex crypto exchange started in 2014, and by 2016, it was one of the most popular and preferred bitcoin exchange. What happened after 2016 that saw the crypto exchange fall off the leader's post into near-oblivion? More importantly, can we really trust Poloniex crypto exchange with our crypto assets and personal information?
Coinbase: Is It Safe To Buy and Store Cryptocurrencies On This...
Coinbase, the American based crypto exchange, describes itself as the "easiest place to buy, sell, and manage your cryptocurrency portfolio." While relying on some of its string features like insurance backed deposits, strong regulation by the SEC, and secure storage that has shielded it from hackers since establishment, Coinbase refers to itself as "the most trusted cryptocurrency platform."
Binance Exchange Review: Is it legit?
Is Binance crypto exchange an industry leader or just another hoax? Well, launched in China but expelled during the Chinese Crypto ban and forced to find a new home overseas, Binance has gone on to become one of the most popular crypto exchanges today. This popularity can largely be attributed to the impressive number of cryptos supported here, professionalism in customer support, low trading fees, and a friendly CEO – CZ.
BitMex Crypto Exchange Review 2020: Is BitMex Legit or Scam?
When looking for cryptocurrency exchange platforms, BitMex is one of the first names you will come across. Also known as Bitcoin mercantile Exchange, this platform boasts of "industry-leading security," offers 100X leverage, and has no expiry dates for trading. They are also one of the handful of exchanges yet to lose any Bitcoin through hacking and fraud.
What Is OmiseGO (OMG)?
From being centralized to being expensive, today's crypto exchanges come with their own share of issues. Besides, they often have a limit on how many transactions they can handle, a factor that has led to downtimes in times of high traffic.
Kucoin Review And Analysis 2020: Is It A Safe And Reliable...
Would you like to buy or sell cryptos but aren't sure of the exchange platform's safety and reliability? Well, if you have looked at different lists of most popular crypto exchanges today, chances are KuCoin has been a prominent feature. And we believe that this huge popularity can, to a large extent, be attributed to its wide global reach, massive client base, super-low trading fees, and commissions as well as its support for a considerably high number of coins.
Kraken Review: Is Kraken A Trustworthy Crypto Exchange?
Looking at Kraken crypto exchange and its operating history, you can't help but notice a few of its unique features. It is, for instance, one of the oldest crypto exchanges around having been established in 2013. It also has never been hacked. More importantly, Kraken was also the first crypto exchange to feature on the Bloomberg Terminal. Not to mention that it was the first crypto exchange to publish cryptographic proof of reserve audits – a great show of transparency towards its clients that even some of the leading exchanges haven't matched yet.
