Srinagar, Oct 26: Lashing out at a Delhi-based news channel for calling him 'anti-national' over demanding autonomy, National Conference (NC) vice-president Omar Abdullah said autonomy is not a 'pro-Pakistan' agenda as the neighbouring country has never supported its restoration in Jammu and Kashmir.
Mr Abdullah, in an apparent reference to the news channel and BJP, said, 'You guys won't be happy until every Muslim living in India is pushed out & the easiest way to do that is to paint them as anti-Indian & worse still pro-Pakistani. Such an easy slur to paint all of us with.'
'Since when have demands within the purview of the Constitution of India become anti-national? J&K acceded to the Union of India on the basis of the autonomy that was given. What's wrong in asking for its restoration? "Omar echos Imran" – Is this ignorance or just TRP hunting?' Mr Abdullah, who is the former chief minister of the state, wrote on micro-blogging site twitter.
Mr Abdullah said he would have expected this nonsense from the North Korean channels, but 'you guys are really no better handling these discussions'.
"Autonomy is NOT pro-Pak agenda. Pakistan has never supported the restoration of autonomy to J&K," he added.
He said if his and his party's agenda had been "pro-Pak", he wouldn't have lost 1000s of colleagues to the bullets and bombs of 'Pakistan-backed' militants. "This ignorance would be laughable if it wasn't so damn infuriating," he said.
Mr Abdullah on Wednesday said that granting autonomy is the only practical solution to the decades-old problem of Jammu and Kashmir.

The Missing Ingredient
You put together a great recipe but all of a sudden you realize that you're missing one of the main ingredients. One of the ingredients that can't be replaced. One of the ingredients that's is so essential in creating a successful recipe that without it, it's a flop. When it comes to building muscle, losing fat and becoming healthy the ingredient I so often find missing in people is "consistency".
In order to be consistent at something you must have a reason why you're doing it that goes beyond a short term goal: For example; I don't write this blog every week to gain as many viewers as I can because I would have quit in my first year of writing. I blog because I am able to have a positive impact on people's lives and that fulfills my life's purpose. Every once and a while I'm reminded, when someone sends me a nice message of the impact I had on them.
Think of a better reason you NEED to exercise or eat clean that goes far beyond just losing 10lbs. How about for the sake of adding years to your life? Having energy everyday? living by your identity? Seeing your kids or grand kids for an extra 10 years?
Once you have a good enough reason it's simply a matter of making it a habit (try getting people to hold you accountable for the first 3 months). If you fall off, get back on. If you're too tired don't push as hard but still get it done. The point is be consistent and never give up.

Peanut Butter Granola
2 tbsps Pure Peanut butter
1 tsp coconut oil
1 cup Pure Ground Oatmeal
2 tbsps maple syrup
1/4 tsp cinnamon
Making this granola is peanuts and eating a whole bowl isn't an effort either. Preheat your oven to 325 degrees. Take a baking sheet and rub it in with coconut oil. Mix the peanut butter and syrup in a bowl and let it cook until it melts. Add the cinnamon and oats into the bowl and stir until it's completely covered in the mixture. Spread it all onto the baking sheet and bake for 8 minutes until it's slightly browned. Let it cool until it's crunchy. Serve with fresh fruits, Greek yoghurt or almond milk.

The Allegany County Commissioners Thursday spent a one hour work session reviewing various scenarios to bring the county budget fof Fiscal Year 2020 into balance.
One unexpected challenge came up: The board of the Allegany County Animal Shelter said it needed at least a $100,000 increase for the coming year, or it would be turning the operation back to the county.
Commission President Jake Shade said the shelter is facing financial stress, brought on in part by a move to increase Maryland's minimum wage.
County agenices will be challenged to come up with more operational savings in the coming week.

Provincial authorities say this year's rise in illegal fishing is
linked to the belief that the government would be too busy to crack
down during elections
Vandy Rattana
Fishermen in Phnom Penh's Chruoy Changvar district last week using illegal nets that are made of very fine mesh.
Government officials say they have cracked down on more than 700 cases of illegal fishing in the Kingdom between the months of June and August.
"We have burned more than 80,000 metres of illegal fishing nets countrywide and saved more than 10 million fish that we've released back into Tonle Sap Lake and the Mekong River," Nao Thuok, director of the Fisheries Administration at the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, told the Post Monday.
Current figures show a rise of nearly 30 percent in illegal fishing cases over the same period last year, he added.
"We're seeing a large increase in illegal fishing compared to last year. Illegal fishermen have used July's elections as cover for their activities," he said, adding that they choose times when they believe government officials are too busy to pay attention to ramp up their illegal practices.
"We prosecuted seven men in court," he said. "We've also arrested several others but released them after warning them to stop."
He said cracking down is difficult because illegal fishermen will stop when they are caught but simply re-start operations when authorities are gone.
"We need better cooperation from local authorities and residents," he said.
The southern Tonle Sap lake is prime territory for Cambodia's illicit anglers, local officials say, adding that July's national polls made it difficult for authorities looking for votes to make any serious effort to halt illegal fishing.
We are seeing a large increase in illegal fishing compared to last year.
"We are now cracking down in the Tonle Sap area and in three provinces because of the fishing ban season," Hong Hy, director of the Tonle Sap Southern Fisheries Administration Inspectorate, told the Post Sunday.
Cambodia prohibits non-subsistence or commercial fishing from June 1 to the end of September to allow fish populations time to replenish. Some areas impose the ban until the end of October.
Most offenders of the ban are local fishermen using small-mesh nets to increase their catches for family consumption or to sell at markets.
"We would have started cracking down before the elections, but we were worried that politicians would criticise us for doing so," Hong Hy said.
Uy Sarun, also with Southern Fisheries Administration Inspectorate, said authorities have confiscated nearly 3,500 metres of fishing nets in the southern region of the lake, as well as more than 5,000 fish.
The nets were burned and the fish have been returned to the lake, Uy Sarun said.
He said authorities have been conducting the crackdown principally in Battambang and Pursat provinces since last month, but that raids in Kampong Chhnang and Kampong Speu provinces have produced good results.
"They never stop their illegal activities," Uy Sarun said.
"They just wait until we're finished and then begin again," he added.
"We're trying to do what we can for the sake of preventing the destruction of our fish resources."

February 2, 2016 by SCMR 0 commentsDestination weddings make for fantastic memories and stunning photos. Weddings in Keystone are no exception. All four seasons offer their own unique backdrop, and the beautiful mountainscape is always present. If you're considering Keystone for your nuptials, you may have found that some property management companies offer wedding packages. These packages range from full, all-inclusive wedding services to simply a hall for the wedding day with lodging for the wedding party. What's not missing from these wedding packages is a high markup on the cost of these specialized services. Even if there's a discount on the front-end, there are usually fees on the back-end. And when you do the math on the total cost you find out you paid a premium for bundling. What SCMR Offers On your special day we're happy to assist by offering a 10% discount on the nightly rate for lodging for you and your wedding party. No, we won't be handling the entire wedding, nor can we offer a hall for the exchange of vows. But we also won't be charging any extra fees for taking care of these things. Instead you simply get a discount! How it Works
- Contact us by phone or email to let us know the date of your wedding and the names of the bride and groom.
- We'll create a promotional code specific to your wedding and then email you a flyer with all the details.
- Simply send the flyer to your guests before they make their reservations.
- Reserve your stay online at our website and enter the promo code during booking or, if you prefer, speak with one of our friendly Vacation Planners by phone and tell them the promo code.

Commissioner of Police in Delta State, Mr. Adeleke Adeyinka, read the riot act, yesterday, at Asaba, after some rampaging hoodlums, on Sunday, drove nail into the head of a villager and wounded three others with machete in a bloodletting, on Sunday, at Oginibu community, Ughelli South Local Government Area, Delta State.
At least four of the injured persons, including the local cut on his head with a cutlass, were yesterday, at the Police Headquarters in Asaba.
The Commissioner at a meeting in Asaba with the former Minister of State for Education, Olorogun Kenneth Gbagi, who led the Oginibu people and Mr. Andrew Desi, leader of the Oginibo delegation, directed the Divisional Police Officer, DPO, in the area to handle all cases of criminality in the area with firmness.
After hearing from the leaders, he urged the Special Adviser to Governor Ifeanyi Okowa on Peace Building and Conflict Resolution, Chief Edwin Uzor, who attended the meeting, to meet with the warring parties and come out with the way forward.
"The state government should take charge, all cases of criminality should be reported to the Police, the Divisional Police Officer should open case files for all the cases and handover to the headquarters the ones that cannot be treated at the divisional level. The issue of Oginibu or Oginibo should not lead to a crisis in the community, "he said.
The Commissioner asked leaders of the community to warn their followers to maintain the peace, saying, "If you are found not to be peaceful, we will pick you up and make you face the law, nobody is above the law."
Adeyinka also warned that if the people refused to maintain peace and continue to cause a crisis, the police would not hesitate to impose a curfew on the town.
Olorogun Gbagi told the Commissioner that some people sponsored hoodlums to attack members of community executive on Sunday in their bid to hijack the community's leadership after allegedly selling the community's land.
"They invaded the Baptist Church on Sunday where they attacked a member of the executive and went to the homes of some of the executive members to machete them. One of them was shot earlier and they reported to the police," he alleged.
However, Mr. Desi, who denied that anybody sold the community's land, said the change of the community's name from Oginibo to Oginibu by Gbagi and some persons was the root cause of the current crisis bedeviling the community.
While Gbagi maintained name change was not the issue, but criminality and that in any case, the entire community resolved to change the name from Oginibo to Oginibo, Desi vehemently disputed the claim.
An elder from the community said at the meeting that change of name was authorized by the people, while some suggested that both sides should wait for the community's annual conference between December 25 and 26 to table their demands.
Chief Uzor assured that the state government, which was already aware of the crisis, will visit the community on Monday to meet with the parties and head of the community to resolve the dispute. (Vanguard)

Fibromyalgia Support Group
You're not alone in your pain. Fibromyalgia is a condition that can be difficult to diagnose and manage. If you're trying to cope with pain throughout your body, sleep problems, general fatigue, or other common fibromyalgia symptoms, you're in the right place. The community is here for you to talk about therapies and share your challenges.
1 Online
I have had more people look at me as if I am stupid or something when I say I am sick with fibro. The first words out of their mouth is "You don't look sick" or "It will just take alittle time go and rest and you'll get back on your feet." Bless his heart, my husband thinks that if you are sick, go to the doctor, get meds, and be fixed and go back to what you were doing. He doesn't realize how much I hurt or how bad I feel. It's like I am complaining. Does anyone have this problem?
AMEN!! I sure do ...If they don't see it ..it cant be that bad.I can't get my Boyfriend to read the stuff on Fibro that i have left sitting right in front of him so that he would understand better,But ...never has he picked it up and read it..
I thank God everyday my husband went in with me to talk to the doctor when I was diagnosed over ten years ago. I don't think he would believe me either. My sons, especially the oldest don't take it seriously and friends and other relatives just don't get it. The thing with Fibro is that one day you can have a leg or hand in so much pain you can't use it, and the next day, it can feel better and something ELSE is hurting--One week you can feel like you are in a fog and near death and the next week you think, "What the heck was that??" I have to admit, if the shoe were on the other foot, I would be skeptical too. It is like no other illness I know of. Horrible to have pain and to be treated like a hypochondriac. Thank God we have each other.
Im wish Glueless.......my hubby goes with me to my appointments. That way I have a witness and a support person there. And YES, I have had that stuff happen too. Even in my own family...... It's not complaining....I've tried to wrap my brain around that one also. You are describing your condition or telling someone about something that is making your life miserable......it is not the same as complaining. We look well and don't sound sick....so people look at us like we are imagining it, or we just want attention. I'm lucky in that after all these years I have a good bunch of people around me who believe me and are always asking my hubby how I am doing. For the longest time Marc just kept saying..."YOU know how you feel and that is all that counts, you can't pay attention to the others." Easy to say, hard to do. I'm sorry you are dealing with non-believers :( For 2 years I pushed to educated others....some took, some did not.....and it was frustrating, but so is them not believing. I'm not helping at all here am I? it is all circular :(
Don"t feel so bad I feel the same way, I dont have anyone else to talk to except here on the board. I had a really good Doctor for two years unforanutley he moved and now THESE STUPID DOCTORS HERE WITCH ARE ALL ARMY R TELLING ME I DONT HAVE IT IT IS ALL IN MY HEAD, MY HUSBAND DOES NOT WANT TO HEAR ANYMORE THAT IM HURTING. Everyday im in pain but it seems like when i wake up in the mourings there is a new promblem as far as pain so i will tell him usually he will give me the digusted look he thinks if i start meditating and get a job things will be better, HOW CAN I THING ABOUT GETTING A JOB WHEN I CAN BARELEY RUN A HOUSEHOLD
they tell me its all in my head like I'm a hypo. But my mom has gone through this for years
The absolute worst was my now ex-boss. She continually looked at me and would say, "And there's *nothing* the doctors can do for you????" No, there's nothing. There's medications that could make me sicker in other ways, and protocols that make you worse before you're better, but there's nothing definite that will make this go away. All we can do is ride the waves and go with the flow and listen to our bodies.
The hardest thing I have had to try to explain is how resting a little now means I can get back up and work some more later. Don't rest a little now, and I will have to rest a *LOT* later. Try explaining that to your boss.
After reading your posts about boyfriends and husbands who just don't understand, I think I'm going to give my very understanding husband a HUGE hug and kiss and tell him how wonderful he is! (When we decided I would quit my job and take a couple weeks off to recover from how sick they were making me, he stormed into my boss's office and yelled at her that he wasn't going to allow them to abuse me any longer. My knight in shining armor!)

My friends and family look at me like I'm a kook and my husband (through sickness and health, that guy ) does't even talk to me anymore. I don't make any money except disability and so he has to work even harder than before. He's a work-aholic and I know this just gives him more reason to work all the time and then complain. He even has my kids looking at me like I'm lazy. If they only knew! My daughter is pretty good about it but my son is his father's boy. Good luck to you.
Thanks girls! My husband works out of town and is only here every other weekend. I have to play like everything is okay when he is here so he won't get aggrevated with me. I tried to talk to him tonight and get him to open up and all he would say is "I haven't said anything". I hate that reply more than ever. I'm hoping that when I go back to the doctor and get more info he will understand. Wish me luck. You all are great.
yes is so true,it comes and goes,here and there hurts,and noone understands,or when you say the word,they look at you,like if we are crazy,belive i been there so many times,having it for a while,and the flare up to people are like,well dont do what your doing,it takes alot out of us,i bet we are stronger,becuase they dont belive whats really going in our bodys???
What I used to do all day now takes me all day to do it!! My husband is very good about going home early, etc when I say I am "hurting", He has seen me in flares and he knows they can be bad. My boss'/co-workers all act like they know or care, but only one co-worker actualy does. It can be very hard because alot of people just don't understand. I always tell people to imagine the worst aches you've ever had when they have had a flu or cold and that all the energy is sucked out of your body.
Take care tam :)
Take care tam :)
I'm right there with each and every one of you. It is the most frustrating thing I've EVER dealt with. It truly is infuriating. I've gotten to the point where I just really don't care what others say or don't say, I KNOW WHAT IT FEELS LIKE and that really is all that matters. My husband is supportive, and says he understands, but as long as I continue to push myself to accomplish things around the house, etc. my family sees me as being all right. My son just asked me the other day, "Mom, you don't hurt as much as you use to, do you?" My reply was, "Yes I do, son. But I push myself, through the pain, to accomplish the things I need to accomplish to take care of you guys." Always the caregiver.... You know how it is.
Take Care of You
Take Care of You
Hope, you just brought up the single biggest problem with FM. We can push through the pain if we really want to. This then makes everyone around us think that we're just whiny or lazy because we were able to do it once despite our complaints. But what other options do we have? If we don't push ourselves every once in a while, then we have no good days at all and end up just sitting on the couch like a lump all the time in pain. How do you explain to someone that yesterday you hurt just like you do today, but yesterday you had what it took to push through, but today you don't? That just sounds to them like we could do it if we wanted to, but we just don't want to. Frustrating!
yes I suffered from the embarrassment of hidden disabilities for years... hang in there... ((((((((((hugs))))))))
iam right up ther with ya tambug every step of the way. my husband accepts the fact of me having my ailment and realizes i hurt i just don't think he understands the full extent the pain can go.
my prayers are with you please say some for me too.
my prayers are with you please say some for me too.

Reese Is Praying
Reese spent the weekend attending services at the All-Saints Parish in Beverly Hills. Ava and Deacon were with her but as expected Ryan was nowhere in sight. Reese may be back at work with Jake Gyllenhaal but she isn't making it to all of her scheduled appearances post breakup. Last week she was supposed to host a party celebrating Carolina Herrera's new LA boutique, but ditched the event for some family time in Tennessee. We can't blame her but we would have loved to have seen her all dressed up.
It's good to see Reese has a good support system during this tough time. More pics of Reese and adorable Deacon and Ava so read more

When Christians Operate By The Same Principals As Spiritists Do
In Part 1 and Part 2 of "The Difference Between Reiki, Spiritism, And Christian Healing Ministry," we saw that although Reiki and Spiritism do have results and a very real spiritual effect, they are far inferior to Christ because they can never bring redemption or lasting freedom. Last week in Part 3, we discussed how Reiki and many other forms of alternative healing operate according to the "elemental spirits of this universe" or the "basic principles of this world," and not according to Christ.
Today we will begin looking at what some common "Christian" teachings which are not Christ-centered have in common with witchcraft, Reiki, and Spiritism.
Christianity Is Simple
Last week, we discussed how the doctrine of Gnosticism is related to Reiki. Gnosticism and Reiki both teach reliance on secret spiritual knowledge. We read the exhortations of Paul in Colossians and of the apostle John in 2nd John, both written in opposition to Gnostic teaching. Paul emphasized that we have the fullness of God and everything we need, including all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge, in Christ.
John warned the churches that those who don't abide in the teaching of Christ, but go beyond it, don't have God. In other words, what Jesus taught is enough! Don't listen to anybody who tells you "Yeah, what Jesus taught was all right, but you need more! There is some secret knowledge that you need to attain to be truly enlightened." Neither should you listen to anybody who tells you that Jesus' teaching was just a starting point, but now you need their "special knowledge" or secret interpretation to really understand what Jesus said.
Hold Fast To The Simplicity That Is In Christ
Paul expressed concern about the church in Corinth being led astray from the simplicity that is in Christ.
2 Corinthians 11:3 (NKJV) But I fear, lest somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, so your minds may be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
Paul's writing repeatedly speaks of all that we have in Jesus. The serpent, Satan, tries to get us to doubt what we have in Jesus and doubt what is already available to us because of the gospel, so that we are always trying to do something more to attain these things. He makes everything complicated. The gospel is simple. We have been cleansed from sin, made right with God, and received a righteous nature because of Jesus' sacrifice. We are delivered from death through Jesus' death, and we are raised to life and victory through Jesus' resurrection.
What the church needs isn't something new. What we need is to understand the gospel and hold fast to it. Instead of feeling like we need to add more to the gospel, we need to keep walking in the same simple gospel we first received, just as we received it.
Colossians 2:6-10 (NIV) So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live your lives in him, rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness. See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the elemental spiritual forces of this world rather than on Christ. For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form, and in Christ you have been brought to fullness.
How Do Christians Make Things Complicated?
What Jesus taught his disciples to do was simple. They were to preach the gospel, heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, and cast out demons. They were to use the authority in his name. They were to baptize and make disciples of all nations.
Yet many Christians think that we need so much more. Some teach that it is important to understand demonic hierarchies, sharing beliefs about angeology and demonology that go well beyond what scripture teaches. A heavy emphasis on angelic hierarchies was actually one of the marks of the original Gnostics! Others make a big deal out of extra-scriptural revelation in visions, as if it was a much-needed revelation for us to have "breakthrough." Paul also specifically addressed these things when he opposed the Gnostics in the book of Colossians.
Colossians 2:18-19 (NIV) Do not let anyone who delights in false humility and the worship of angels disqualify you. Such a person also goes into great detail about what they have seen; they are puffed up with idle notions by their unspiritual mind. They have lost connection with the head, from whom the whole body, supported and held together by its ligaments and sinews, grows as God causes it to grow.
Don't misunderstand me. Many of you who are already familiar with my writing know that I have a positive attitude towards supernatural visions. I wrote about my Grandmother's visions of heaven in Grammy's First Trip To Heaven and Grammy's Second Trip To Heaven. Although these visions may have had some extra-scriptural details, such details are side issues to the really important thing—the revelation of Christ and the gospel. Neither are those details anything that we would teach as doctrine.
On the other hand, there are some who make out extra-scriptural "revelations" they have had to be of paramount importance. Steer clear of this! Visions can highlight important scriptural truths, but we aren't going to get the "revival" or "breakthrough" that we want from a revelation in a vision which goes beyond the teaching of scripture. If we aren't seeing "breakthrough" or "revival," then what we need is a greater revelation of Christ and the gospel, not a revelation that goes beyond Jesus.
Some others place great importance on understanding the Nephilim, which are barely mentioned in scripture. The Nephilim are a curiousity, a side issue, not the gospel. The Bible says so little about them because there is little value in understanding them.
I recently read a paper arguing that the earth is really flat. (The author was not named) It said "NASA wants to convince them there is no God, and we are not special in the universe. The truth of the true nature of the earth coming out might well lead to the greatest revival ever!!"
It's sad this Christian is imagining that learning the "true nature of the earth" could lead to the "greatest revival ever." Even if the earth really were flat, it would be a fact of little relevance as regarding the gospel and the work of Jesus. The gospel we have is enough to change the world! What we need for the "greatest revival ever" to happen isn't for people to figure out if the earth is round or flat, or any other side issues like that. In fact, the "greatest revival ever" is currently happening, and it is happening as people are catching the revelation of Jesus and understanding the gospel!
People usually go seeking something more because their understanding of the gospel has been undermined so as to become devoid of power. Many fall into the trap of mentally acknowledging the basic gospel truths while denying their implications. We can acknowledge that Jesus came in the flesh, died for our sins, and rose from the dead, yet live and act as if he never did.
If that's the case, what we really need is to get back to basics and understand everything gospel truths imply. That's why I write!
Next week, we'll continue by discussing another way Christians often get drawn into operating like Spiritists in Righteousness, Blessing, Salvation. After that, stay tuned for The Law And Witchcraft! We'll go on to see how many Christians fall in to living by the same spiritual principals that work when a Macumba priest sacrifices a chicken.

The Most Important Part Of Clinton's Tweetstorm
Hillary Clinton may be on doctor's orders to stay home this week, but she's still getting plenty of work done on Twitter. A Newsweek cover story by Kurt Eichenwald argued that Donald Trump could put U.S. national security at risk through his various international business ties and obligations. Subsequently, Clinton unleashed a 20-question tweetstorm, demanding details about Trump's alleged connections with Russian businesses and government. Eichenwald's report noted that he did not find evidence that the Trump Organization had engaged in illegal activity. However, Eichenwald otherwise seemed skeptical of Trump's ability to lead fairly:
A close examination by Newsweek of the Trump Organization, including confidential interviews with business executives and some of its international partners, reveals an enterprise with deep ties to global financiers, foreign politicians and even criminals, although there is no evidence the Trump Organization has engaged in any illegal activities. It also reveals a web of contractual entanglements that could not be just canceled. If Trump moves into the White House and his family continues to receive any benefit from the company, during or even after his presidency, almost every foreign policy decision he makes will raise serious conflicts of interest and ethical quagmires.
Neither Trump nor the Trump Organization are quoted in the article, though Eichenwald noted that they did not respond to a request for a complete list of foreign entities tied to the Trump Organization. After former Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski criticized Eichenwald on CNN for allegedly failing to reach out to the Trump Organization, Eichenwald tweeted that he had an off-the-record conversation with the Trump Organization about the article.
In response to Eichenwald's assertion that Trump would be the "most conflicted president in American history," Clinton took to Twitter to demand answers from the Republican nominee. Of all of her questions, though, the most important was number three — which criticized Trump for his failure to release his tax returns.
Trump is the first candidate not to release his tax returns in over 40 years. His explanation — that he cannot release his tax returns while under IRS audit — has been proven false. To many, it only raises the question: does Trump have something to hide?
One big concern relates to how Russian hackers have been accused of attempting to influence the U.S. election, and amid Trump's jarring praise for Russian President Vladimir Putin, many speculated that Trump's tax returns might reveal the extent to which he and his organization are dependent on Russian investment. Clinton questioned Trump's connections with Russia in her tweetstorm, and the tax returns would go a long way in addressing that.
The issues raised by Clinton's tweetstorm are not limited to Russia; she also questioned his reported ties to Iran and suggested that there may be many other foreign connections of which we are still unaware. All 20 of Clinton's questions are intended to make the reader suspicious of Trump's foreign interests.
Earlier this week, I criticized the Clinton campaign for allowing its candidate's "penchant for privacy," as David Axelrod called it, to distract from its policy issues. Trump's refusal to release his tax returns is as big a distraction, if not more so.

- STANDING OUT 'Being African American in Sonoma County was weird,' says Malia Anderson. 'There're not a lot of us.'
Not long after Malia Anderson moved to Santa Rosa almost 17 years ago, people started saying she looked familiar.
"You went to my high school, right?" they'd say, trying to guess where they recognized her from. "I'm guessing that's because I became such a big part of the community so fast," says Anderson, 38, with a satisfied smile.
Last month, even more local women got a taste of her vibrant energy and savvy style when Anderson hosted the first and only West Coast trunk show for Eloquii, a nationwide online plus-size retailer. On a sunny Sunday, over 20 women poured into the headquarters of Style by Malia, on Second Street in Santa Rosa, tried on clothes, sipped sparkling wine and happily gave in to Anderson's charms.
It wasn't so easy at first. Anderson was born and raised in San Francisco, and studied fashion merchandising at San Francisco City College. She later produced fashion shows for Macy's and Sak's Fifth Avenue. In 2001, she moved to Sonoma County to live in her husband's hometown, where she immediately stood out.
"Being African American in Sonoma County was weird," she admits. "There're not a lot of us. Sonoma County has a small-town community kind of feel, so when I moved in, I definitely felt like an outsider. It's not an easy place to break into."
Anderson's solution? Jumping head-first into local events, trying to get as involved as possible.
"I wanted to make sure people really see me," she says.
Anderson is currently on the board of the North Bay Black Chamber of Commerce and is involved in the local young professionals network. She volunteers at the American Heart Association and gives style advice on the pages of North Bay Woman, a local magazine published by the Marin Independent Journal.
After first moving to the county, Anderson changed careers and worked in marketing and driving to modeling gigs in San Francisco. Soon, fashion called her back, and for the last eight years she has been working as a private wardrobe stylist and buyer. Her clientele includes more than 2,000 women ranging from bankers to artists, younger women to CEOs in their 60s.
As a plus-size model, Anderson often displays the body confidence her much skinnier clients lack.
"I often tell them, I don't have your insecurities in my head!" she laughs. "I know when something looks great on them, despite their doubts."
This confidence doesn't mean she hasn't had her fair share of insults and body shaming, in Sonoma County and beyond. But it doesn't hold her back.
With the Eloquii event, as with others in the works, Anderson wants to bring Sonoma County plus-size women more stylish advice and great clothes. An atmosphere of acceptance, diversity and pure and apologetic fun is just a bonus.

Bridgeport woman charged after altercation with Wilton Stop & Shop strikers
WILTON — A Bridgeport woman is accused of grabbing a phone from a Stop & Shop employee on strike, who was recording her arguing with strikers at a Wilton store on Tuesday, according to police.
Shabrina Fudd, 30, of Bridgeport, was given a misdemeanor summons for second-degree breach of peace.
Wilton police officers responded to the Stop & Shop on River Road in Wilton on Tuesday afternoon for a disturbance between employees on strike and a customer, police said.
On Tuesday, employees of the grocery chain were in their sixth day of a strike statewide as contract negotiations continued.
When officers got to the Wilton store, they found that Fudd had argued with the Stop & Shop employees who were on strike. It was unclear if Fudd had crossed the picket line or planned to shop at the store.
Police said Fudd became angry when she saw she was being recorded on video by one of the strikers. Fudd allegedly grabbed the phone from the employee's hand while yelling at them.
There were no injuries reported during the altercation. Police removed Fudd from the premises.
She is expected to appear in Norwalk Superior Court on April 30 to answer to her charge.
Correction: An earlier version incorrectly spelled the last name of the woman charged as Shabrina Fludd. Wilton police on Wednesday corrected the name as Fudd.

Excuses Why You're Working With The Wrong Advisor
September 19, 2019
Very often we see a broker, or advisor who's doing a less than stellar job, but folks continue to work with him, or her simply because they feel that he, or she is a nice guy/gal. Let's talk about the ridiculousness of actual statements we've heard from clients and why it's important for people to get help and advice that they really need, instead of just maintaining a relationship for strictly personal reasons.

PGE exploring geothermal development at Gunung Masigit area near Kamojang
Near its geothermal operations at Kamojang, Pertamina Geothermal Energy is eyeing the development of a geothermal project at Mount Masigit (Gunung Masigit) with an estimated potential of up to 70 MW.
PT Pertamina Geothermal Energi (PGE) is eyeing the Gunung Masigit hotspot in the Gunung Guntur area, Tarogong Kaler District, Garut Regency for geothermal development near its existing operations at Kamojang, West Java.
PT PGE's Managing Director, Ali Mundakir, said that PGE is planning to expand the geothermal utilization area in the Garut region, including planning to manage the geothermal on Mount Masigit in the Guntur Mountain area. For this reason, PGE is taking care of changing zone status so that it enters WKP Kamojang Darajat.
"Guntur Masigit's status is on conservation land. Therefore, environmental service management permits must change first from conservation forest to natural tourism parks," Ali said, as released by Dunia Energi earlier this week.
According to data from the Garut Regency Government, the geothermal energy in Gunung Masigit has a potential of around 70 MW. The direct use of geothermal energy from this region has actually been done for a long time by the Garut Regency Government, in the form of managing Cipanas attractions that rely on natural hot water. This tourist attraction is now one of the icons of Garut Regency and become the main tourist destination in Garut Regency.
The location of Mount Masigit itself is around 6 to 9 km to the west of Cipanas tourist attraction.
Garut Regency Government is open to geothermal investment. As revealed by the Regent of Garut Rudy Gunawan during the Performance Achievement Socialization of the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources 2018 in Kamojang in November this year, geothermal management is very beneficial for the community and the Garut Regency Government.
"Geothermal management can accelerate regional development," Rudy Gunawan said at the time.
As reported, as a geothermal producing area, Garut has received a bonus of geothermal production for a long time. Regent Rudy said that the contribution of geothermal energy to Garut Regency from the Darajat area reached between Rp. 8 to Rp. 9 billion per year, from Kamojang PLTP to Rp. 1.2 billion per year and in 2018, Karaha's contribution began.
He added, the Garut Regency Government has begun to receive geothermal production bonuses since 2006. Until 2018 now the total geothermal production bonus that has been received by the Garut Regency Government is through the regional treasury of Rp 275 billion ($18 million).
In addition to Mount Masigit, the potential for geothermal energy in Garut that has not been cultivated is in Cilayu, Cisewu District, which has the potential of 100 MW and Ciarinem, Pakenjeng District with a potential of 25 MW.
The three potential points have been proposed by PT Garut Energi to become one of the cultivation areas to be sought in 2014, which is now still in process at the Geothermal Directorate, Directorate General of EBTKE, Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources.

Thunderkick slots are entertaining and some of them are themed on Arcade video games like Arcader and Flame Busters. Just like any other Arcade video game fan, these two slot games are my favorite. Thunderkick started in 2012 and is based in Stockholm, Sweden working as an independent casino supplier offering slots and Remote Gaming Server. The firm also have an office in Malta. Their goal is to create unique casino games to surpass players' expectations. With a very professional team, Thunderkick has all the experience and knowledge on how to create excellent slot games. The result is very clear for me, as Thunderkick slot games are present in several online casinos including Casumo, 888, Vera & John, Unibet, WilliamHill, LeoVegas, Betsson,Rizk, Dunder and more. The company has a license in Malta and the UK and got certified by several jurisdictions. I can say they are growing fast as I see more online casinos interested in their games. Games As mentioned above, Thunderkick slot games are very well produced. I like the Arcade themed slots and one of the best things is that you can set autoplay for 5,000 spins. I've never seen any casino slot game allows me to set 5k auto-spin. This is very good for more aggressive slot machine players that usually leave their laptops with several opened windows with slots on autoplay. Punters willing to play high limit slots will also find interesting. Although the limits are not so high, you can bet max and leave the game on autoplay for up to 5k spins. Thunderkick slot games are responsive on any mobile device (cell phone, smartphones, tablets) using any platform (Windows, Apple iOS or Linux). You can play the games on mobile, directly on your web browser or, download the casino games App for Android / Apple iOS (available in a few casinos). One of the most famous games is Esqueleto Explosivo that was promoted at Videoslots casino, through their Battle of Slots, where players can compete against others. For those who like the traditional fruit machines, Thunderkick slots have something for you. Fruit Warp slot. You can adjust the gameplay speed, sounds, background music, auto-play, and more. Progressive Jackpots? You could be asking about it, as a lot of players want them: Progressive Jackpots are a huge attraction on slot machines but Thunderkick slots don't have any. I think this could be a con, but think better: Thunderkick slots are very beautiful (graphics and sounds are excellent) and you can still be playing for a BIG WIN on their fixed jackpots, bonus rounds, free spins and more. The pro is that you won't have the huge competition of players spinning on beast mode to hit the progressive jackpot. Less competition, more chances to WIN BIG on Thunderkick slots.

How To Become a Successful eBay Seller
If you are looking for a way to make some extra cash to supplement your income or maybe you are looking to ditch your day job completely selling on eBay is the fastest and easiest way to get started with online commerce. Selling on eBay has been something that has been around for nearly 20 years. People have made their fortunes starting from nothing to selling tens of thousands of items each month. If you want to know how they do it read on.
Focus on a Niche
The best eBay sellers focus on a niche which they know and understand. If you are into computers, then focus on computers and computer parts. If you understand mobiles phones, then do that. Know your subject.
Source Products cheaply
Sourcing products is easier than you think. There is a website called Alibaba which lists pretty much anything and everything that you could possibly wish for. Have a visit and be amazed how many things are for sales. If you can't find on Alibaba, then it does not exist.
List 1 to 10 items Per Day
What makes an eBay seller money? Simple, it is products. Having more products to sell means more chance that you will sell something. Its as straight forward as that. It does not matter if you are just starting out on your eBay career or are a seasoned professional you need products listed on your store to attract those buyers.
When you are listing you do not want your products to end up at the bottom of the list in amongst all of the other products vying for the attention of the buyers.
You want your products at the top of the page and there are a couple of ways in which you can achieve this: 1. Pay to have your items listed at the top of the page. 2. You item is listed at the top of the page since is amongst the highest selling and popular items 3. Newly listed items go to the top of the page. Newly listed items go to the top of the page once you list them so to make sure that your products are at the top of the page it is important to list at the right time during the day. For example, listing around 6-7pm is a great time to list as people are home from work and browsing eBay. The more items you have listed at this time means more chance that you will end up selling something each day. You can create the listings anytime during the day and schedule them to list at your chosen time.
Run Sales Each Day
People love discounts and if you have your eBay shop up and running you can run a discount sale. All you need to do is increase your prices by 10% and then have a 10% off sale on your items. All of the major high street retailers do exactly that. Many people on eBay do not follow this course since either they don't know how to set up sales or they are not able to since they do not have a store.
Offer Fast & Free Shipping
If you want to be regarded as a Top-Rated Seller you will have to offer free shipping within 24 hours of the sale. Buyers want their stuff as soon as possible and if you can offer them fast and free delivery, they are more likely to purchase from you. Which means more positive feedback and more sales.
Reply to your Enquires asap
When you get a question from a customer or a potential customer it is important to reply to them as soon as possible with as much information as you can to help them make that buying decision. to help you out, you can create a word document with all the commonly asked questions and answers that you can simply copy and paste to save you time. As you grow you can hire a virtual assistant from sites like Upwork who can respond to all the questions your customers have freeing you up to source new products to list on your store. By the way, your virtual assistant can also do all the listing for you in the future.
Keep and Eye on Sales and Products
Sometimes sales seem to be pouring in and then on some days it feels like the whole world has gone on holiday and the sales just dry up. Rather than putting it down to "one of those things" it is important to find out why your items are not selling. Is it that your competitors have discounted their products making yours more expensive? If so, what will you do about it, will you follow suit and get into a price war with them or will you find alternative solutions such as offer multibuy discounts or find another means of selling your stock via your own website, Facebook, Instagram. eBay is not the only show in town.
If sales are generally slow all round, then try and find hot selling products which are still moving on eBay. There are many commercial tools out there which allow you to find the best-selling items on eBay and copy them. If you competitors are doing well try and copy whatever they are doing to shift their products, there is no love lost when it comes to making money on eBay. Your competitors will just as quickly steal (borrow) your ideas. So, take the time to look at why sales are slow and see what you can do to change that for the better.
Try and think up new and novel ways to get people to buy from you. Maybe having a phone number, they can call to discuss the product. Lots of product descriptions, videos, testimonials from previous buyers. Try and set yourself apart from the competition in such a way that they will find it difficult to replicate your service and attention to detail.
Talk to Other eBay sellers.
Join the eBay forums and ask questions but also be prepared to offer advice when you can. You are all in the game to make money at the end of the day and any advice you can give and receive is gold. You will find that you will get to know your competition and vice versa. Try and stay on good and friendly terms with them as you never know when you might need to source products from them when you run dry.
eBay Is not the only show in Town
When you mention on-line sales to anyone they will immediately think of eBay. But there are many other ways in which you can sell online. For instance, there is Facebook marketplace, or you can setup your own website using a cool site called Shopify and run Facebook ads to drive traffic to your site. There are other ways to drive traffic to your own site or eBay listing and that it to setup your own blog which you can become and authority on the products which you are selling. Start creating a mailing list so that you can keep people up to date with new offers and sales.
Be honest and straight with people
Even though the bottom line is to make money don't build something that you would not be proud to associate your name to it. You want to build a brand around your eBay store, your website and your blog. Your customers are the people who put food on your table, the shirt on your back and the roof over your head. You should treat them like they have saved your life. If in the future, you want to move on and sell up the reputation of the online store will be a major factor regarding the price it will fetch.

Beta Version of VBM8 Toolbox
Christian Gaser <[log in to unmask]>
Christian Gaser <[log in to unmask]>
Thu, 13 May 2010 17:06:08 +0100
(42 lines)
Dear all,
I am happy to announce the beta version of the VBM8 Toolbox which can be downloaded at:
This toolbox is a an extension of the "New Segment Toolbox" in SPM8 (Wellcome Department of Cognitive Neurology) to provide voxel-based morphometry (VBM).
You can also download a VBM8 manual, written by Florian Kurth and Eileen Lüders:
Some general information about VBM can be found here, but the sites are not yet updated for VBM8:
New features in VBM8:
- segmentation without tissue priors
- Partial Volume Estimation (PVE)
- de-noising with non-local means filter
- integration of Dartel normalization
- processing of longitudinal data
Here is a longer (and more technical) description of the differences to SPM8/New Segment:
1. The segmentation approach is based on an adaptive Maximum A Posterior (MAP) technique without the need for a priori information about tissue probabilities. That is, the Tissue Probability Maps are not used constantly in the sense of the classical unified segmentation approach, but just for spatial normalization3. The following MAP estimation is adaptive in the sense that local variations of the parameters (i.e., means and variance) are modelled as slowly varying spatial functions (Rajapakse et al. 1997). This not only accounts for intensity inhomogeneities but also for other local variations of intensity.
2. Additionally, the segmentation approach uses a Partial Volume Estimation (PVE) with a simplified mixed model of at most two tissue types (Tohka et al. 2004). We start with an initial segmentation into three pure classes: gray matter (GM), white matter (WM), and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) based on the above described MAP estimation. The initial segmentation is followed by a PVE of two additional mixed classes: GM-WM and GM-CSF. This results in an estimation of the amount (or fraction) of each pure tissue type present in every voxel (as single voxels – given by their size – probably contain more than one tissue type) and thus provides a more accurate segmentation.
3. Furthermore, we apply two denoising methods. The first method is an optimized block-wise non-local means (NLM) denoising filter (Coupe et al. 2008). This filter will remove noise while preserving edges and is implemented as preprocessing step. The second method is a classical Markov Random Field (MRF) approach, which incorporates spatial prior information of adjacent voxels into the segmentation estimation (Rajapakse et al. 1997).
4. Another important extension to the SPM8 segmentation is the integration of the Dartel normalisation (Ashburner 2007) into the toolbox. If high-dimensional spatial normalisation is chosen, an already existing Dartel template in MNI space will be used. This template was derived from 550 healthy control subjects of the IXI-database (http://www.brain-development.org) and is provided in MNI space for six different iteration steps of Dartel normalisation. Thus, for the majority of studies the creation of sample-specific Dartel templates is not necessary anymore.

B&B Artisans' Candles are truly made by hand, in (very) small batches so products may vary slightly. At the same time, you can be sure that each candle has been made with time and care - if something doesn't look/smell/feel right when I'm pouring, I won't sell it. Simple as that. Questions? Please send me a note, I'm so happy to start a conversation and ensure you're getting exactly what you want!
One of the benefits of soy wax over paraffin is that it doesn't produce smoke (when lit properly). Soy wax contains no herbicides, pesticides or toxins so they are a much better choice for your family, indoor environment and they are safe for asthmatics too. In short, soy wax provides a slow, clean burn without harsh chemicals filling your air. PLUS - soy candles tend to burn the longest, because soy wax actually burns at a lower temperature.
Wood wicks add value to your candle through their crackling ambiance, enhanced burn performance, and 'modern appeal'. To start, wood wicks burn slower than traditional cotton wicks (meaning more flame time for you). They crackle gently whilst they are burning (like a fireplace) which produces a beautiful effect and mood – relaxing ambiance.

Of course going there with my son who always wanted to go with me where ever I will go. The camera was holding by brother that time as he took pictures of my cute baby boy while walking outside the church and eating dirty ice cream from Mamang Sorbetero because he was so bored in the baptismal mass.
I love the shots, looks like he's a commercial model or something. One proud Mama is here, hahaha. Stage Mom to be exact but no, I know for sure that you will also love those shots.
He look like he never care about hte people around him. Just with the ice cream and everythings will be ignored.
Care for some ice cream mommy... I love the cheese flavor! oh yeah!
Hmmm... yummy! and one thing i like with this photo is that when he placed his hands in his pockets. It's so cool!
Finally he finish the ice cream and looks like he wants for more... Maybe by that time his boredom will end too with the refeshing dirty ice cream from the Mamang Sorbetero. I would like to join you baby and will do it next time.

I remember the first time I went running in cold weather. It was below 40 degrees Fahrenheit and I thought that I had better bundle up if I was going to be outside for a full thirty minutes! So bundle up I did! I wore a hat, gloves, a scarf, warm fuzzy socks and those earmuffs that have the wire in them and can be folded up.
If you have ever run in the cold, or even run outdoors at all, you might see where I went wrong. Ten minutes into the run I was a sweaty mess with a scarf that kept falling off and earmuffs that I wanted to throw into the nearest trashcan (since they were digging into my ears). There is a better way friends. Learn from my mistakes and make running in cold weather as pleasant as possible.
First of all, abide by the running in cold weather rule of thumb: dress as though it is 20 degrees (F) warmer than it actually is outdoors. Yes, wind chill can come into play so maybe change it to 10 degrees on a windy day, but the basic principal stands. You will usually warm up 10-20 minutes into your run, at which point you wont want to be bogged down by extra clothing.
Running a race in cold weather: If you are running in a busy race, such as one with 40 thousand runners (I did one like this a month ago), you might want to consider the amount of time you will be waiting outside in the cold before you the race begins. It might be a good idea to wear extra clothing. At most races, items of clothing left on the side of the road will be cleaned and donated to local homeless shelters so you can wear extra layers and toss them when you no longer need them to run in the cold.
Stick with your usual running clothing material. I found out the hard way that just because it is cold outside does not mean you should change the type of material you usually wear to run. Wear breathable, sweat wicking clothing that is comfortable and won't chafe when running long distances.
Layer up properly. I did at least have this part right when I started out, but I did it with the wrong materials. You can always take off a jacket to tie around your waist, but it is tricky if you are trying to be stylish with a long-sleeved tee layered under a short-sleeved one. I have even seen some runners wear a jacket underneath their short-sleeved shirt which makes me scratch my head. You really cannot predict how exactly you will feel once you start running. It's always best to be prepared to remove a layer of clothing instead of being stuck with what you are wearing.
Wear comfortable accessories. That scarf I had on my first time running? Big mistake. It was some kind of heavy, scratchy wool that I thought would keep me warm, but it irritated me instead. The earmuffs I wore that dug into my ears? Another big mistake. Now I only run with headband style earmuffs — they're comfortable throughout the run, and I can let them hang around my neck when I get too warm.
Try to wear pockets. If you're like me, my hands get warm then cold, warm then cold through an entire run in the cold. It's handy to have pockets instead of having to hold gloves when your hands get too warm. Also if you're like me, your nose might tend to run a bit so you can always stash a tissue or two in a pocket.
Lastly, safety first. Try not to run on snow or ice unless you have the right traction. I know you might be training for a race and it tends to be better to run outdoors when training, but consider the risks. Is it really worth running in the cold or icy weather if you might injure yourself in the process? If you need to run outdoors then consider purchasing ice cleats or clips that can be put on your regular running shoes to help keep you upright when running on snow or ice.
If you are running in cold weather, don't make the same mistakes I did. It is possible to have a good run outdoors no matter what the temperature if you do it right. Layer-up, make sure it's breathable, and don't use anything that's too bulky!

Tell me..
Have you ever run in the cold?
Do you have any minimum or maximum temperature requirements for running outdoors? Mine range is usually from 20 to 80 degrees (f).

One of the many important steps when buying a home is having your new house inspected. After you have found a home you love but before you seal the deal, it is a must to hire a professional inspection company to go into the home and check for any large issues which could incur repair and replacement costs initially. This will give you an idea of some repair costs to negotiate with the sellers of the home. The inspector will bring in a keen eye to find issues which you may not have seen on your walk-throughs of the home.
Some of the most common issues found by home inspectors are:
Water damage or potential water damage
Many things may contribute to your home's water-stability and potential for damage. Erosion of external grading material is a common cause for slow leaking, making homes with basements especially prone to water damage. Water leaking into your home can cause damage to the foundation or allow health-troubling mold to grow.
Defective plumbing
No one likes weak water pressure or leaky faucets. Besides the hassle of bad water pressure, the efficiency of your pipes and water heater can greatly affect the cost of your utilities. It's better to replace those things now than pay high water bills each month for wasted water!
Faulty or worn-out roofing materials
Roofing problems are very common but can occur on a wide scale of severity. Depending on how old the home is, the type of roofing material, and how well the roofing was originally installed, there may be issues with just a few pieces of the material or the entire roof. Variable temperatures can cause cracks in some roofing while others are more prone to rots or leaks.
Damaged or over-worked electrical capacity
This is another issue that should be solved not only for safety but also for efficiency. With an overcrowded wiring system, your power could be overworked and your space underutilized. Inspectors will check if previous owners made any changes or damages to the electrical wiring and insulation.
Cracked foundation
Foundation damage can occur from water damage, rotting, termites, or structural inadequacy. If the foundation of a home is sinking, it could mean big trouble and extreme costs to repair.
Ailing heating or air systems
Generally, issues with heating and cooling systems can be fixed with a simple overdue cleaning which can help save on energy bills. A less-common need for a replacement of these items will be a worthwhile consideration before closing on a home.
Poorly sealed windows and doors
There's no point in maintaining water stability nor heating and air functioning in a home if the windows and doors leak! New windows don't always mean efficient windows if they weren't properly installed — let your home inspector test for that.
Of course, none of these problems are guaranteed to occur nor easy to spot. Depending on the age, location, and type of house, the potential for problems will vary. It's also important to note that all houses, even brand new ones, will have issues show up on the inspection. Certain issues may be a deal breaker, like a collapsing foundation, but many other issues can and should be repaired after negotiation with the seller. Your Realtor will guide you through this process.
If you need help finding the right home inspection company, Realtors usually have a good idea of reputable local inspectors—just ask yours for a suggestion. Don't skimp on this cost—it's better to spend a little extra now on the home inspection than to spend much more later on costs you can't predict. In the long run, paying for the home inspection is always a sensible investment.

Creating a Drop Route
- Table of Contents
- Alternatives Available to Discard Messages
- Adding the Drop Route
- Using the Drop Route to Discard Messages
Sometimes it is necessary to discard messages from the queue, or discard traffic to a domain or group of domains. While it is preferable to use the built-in methods for that, sometimes this is not possible.
This document explains a way to create a Drop Route that will silently drop messages sent to it. This route can then be used to drop messages from your campaigns by using Engine's routing rules or by redirecting existing VirtualMTAs to the Drop Route.
Before using the methods described in this page, you should exhaust other alternatives. See a list of alternatives below
If you are not familiar with GreenArrow Engine routing rules, relay servers or VirtualMTAs then don't try any of these methods. If in doubt, contact technical support.
Alternatives Available to Discard Messages
If you want to discard all messages from a campaign try dumping the queue first.
If you want to filter a domain or group of domains, try filtering them from the source. For example, GreenArrow Studio has a segmentation option to filter out subscribers that belong to certain domains. Other applications may have similar options.
You can also use Special Sending Rules in GreenArrow Studio to skip messages that match criteria written in the SSR code.
If you want to bounce messages already injected into GreenArrow Engine, try running custom code during delivery attempts. Using this method you'll need to write code that checks the destination domain and returns a
dump action, which forces GreenArrow Engine to bounce the message.
Adding the Drop Route
The Drop Route is a relay server that delivers messages to the internal SMTP Sink service.
SMTP Sink Service
The SMTP Sink is a service installed on all GreenArrow systems, it is an SMTP server that listens on
localhost TCP port
226, accepts any messages sent to it and silently discards those messages. From the point of view of the server that is sending messages to this service, the messages are delivered, therefore, if GreenArrow delivers to the SMTP Sink, the messages will be marked as
accepted, i.e. they won't generate a bounce.
Follow the instructions to add a relay server with the following settings:
- Name:
- IP address:
- Hostname:
- Relay server:
- Port:
- Use SMTP AUTH:
- Concurrent Connections:
- Messages per Hour:
IMPORTANT: Messages sent through this relay server will be silently discarded. This means that the email will show as a Successful delivery in the stats but will actually be deleted, and this will happen without a corresponding bounce message.
Using the Drop Route to Discard Messages
There will be times when you need to discard messages that are coming into the MTA or that are already in the queue, but you don't want to affect other messages in the same campaign or you want to apply this to multiple campaigns. If the instructions to dump the campaign's queue do not apply to this case then perhaps the Drop Route can be used to discard those messages.
Example 1:
Let's assume that you are sending a campaign that uses the routing rule
all_ips, which has 3 IP addresses. Since BIG ISP is deferring your delivery attempts, you decide to drop all messages to those domains:
To do this, update the routing rule
all_ips and add a rule that delivers messages for those domains through the
dev-null Drop Route. This screenshot shows the configuration:
NOTE: This rule will immediately affect new messages that use the VirtualMTA
all_ips and any messages that are in the queue with that routing rule. And it will apply to all campaigns.
Example 2:
You are using an external relay server named
external-relay, and you decide that all messages to that relay server should be discarded.
To do this, edit the relay server, scroll down to the Override section, check Redirect mail through another Virtual MTA and select
dev-null from the dropdown box. Save the relay server and messages to that relay server will be discarded.
Don't forget to disable the override once all the messages have been discarded.
NOTE: this method can also be used on IP address VirtualMTAs too.

The Love Letter is How Every Confession Should Be Like
I know Valentine's is already well out of the way, but I can't help but make a mention of The Love Letter, axcho and knivel's fantastic short Flash game about confessing adolescent infatuations in a high school setting.
It's fairly simple, but the concept is quite clever: a love letter's been dropped in your locker, and you'll have 5 minutes to read it and figure out the sender. However, you can only read it while absolutely by yourself, which is difficult in a bustling hallway of kids bursting at the seams with hormones.
Maybe it's just the romantic in me, but upon completing The Love Letter, I found myself having a nice smile on my face, as the payoff was most certainly worth it. Play it here, and you'll likely feel the same.

Human eye colors can be brown, black, blue, green, gray, hazel, red or violet. The genetics of the eye color are complicated. The colors of the iris are determined by multiple genes. The permanent eye color is determined by the amount and distribution of melanin within the iris. Beautiful brown eyes contain large amounts of melanin. They have the most common color in the world and are very popular in Africa and Asia. Over half of the world's population has dark brown eyes. Green eyes contain low to moderate amounts of melanin. They have the least common color in the world, but can be found frequently in northern and central Europe. Deep blue eyes contain a very low amount of melanin. They are most common in the Baltic Sea region, the northern, the eastern and the central Europe.
