A wealthy Roman would buy a slave in a market place.

In South Carolina the largest group of colored slave masters in the city of Charleston SOURCE N worked in the clothing business. Many business owners found that slavery provided Black Slaveowners: Free Black Slave them with the labor needed to fully exploit the market for clothing. By their own Masters in South Carolina, 1790-1860 industry, colored women acquired the capital to purchase slaves. In 1847, Caroline by Larry Koger, 1995 Lubet, a mulatto* businesswoman of Charleston City, bought a 26-year-old woman named Elizabeth for $425. In 1850 she was reported to be the owner of two black mulatto = mixed-race women and an 18-year-old mulatto girl. Her ownership of slaves lasted until 1865 emancipate = free when she was forced to emancipate* her slaves. SOURCE O This is an Ostarbeiter file for a Russian girl named Anna Asarowa. She was 19 years old at the time she was conscripted. The Ostarbeiter program brought conscripted labor from the occupied east to the Reich. These young people were essentially prisoners, slave laborers -- restricted to their place of residence (in some cases labor camps) and forbidden to fraternize with Germans. Most Ostarbeiters were Polish or Russian. Such workers were required to wear an identification patch with quot;Ost.quot; Because they were regarded as subhuman, they were ordered to be separated from the Germans. Those who tried to escape were hanged where other workers could see their bodies. Many Ostarbeiters perished in Germany because the German authorities ordered that quot;they should be worked to death.quot; Others who were working in German factories were killed in Allied bombing raids. 6
SOURCE P The notorious Burma-Siam railway, built by British, Australian, Dutch and American prisoners of war, was a Japanese project inspired by the need for improved communications to maintain the large Japanese army in Burma. During its construction more than 16,000 prisoners of war died-mainly of sickness, malnutrition and exhaustion - and were buried along the railway. Burmese and Malay slave labourers too died in their thousands-exactly how many will never be known.

Posts Tagged 'Fujian'
The final stop on our two-week trip through China with my parents was Xiamen, a city located on the southwest coast of Fujian province. Xiamen is a city, but it's very different from other Chinese cities. First of all, because Xiamen is coastal, the air quality is supposed to be quite good (though it was still pretty hazy when we were there). Second, the Chinese government has made the buses very cheap in order to encourage public transport, so there are hardly any motorcycles or bikes on the road. And finally, Xiamen is a mere 2 km away from Jinmen, a Taiwanese island (the one that was bombed throughout the 50s and 60s by the Chinese), so there is much trade and travel between the the two countries. The people of Xiamen even speak the local Taiwanese dialect.
All of this makes Xiamen feel almost like a generic big city in Taiwan, which (in general) was not really that interesting to us…but we did do a few things of note in the city proper. We checked out a memorial to a local merchant who made his fortune in Singapore and came back to his hometown of Xiamen in order to develop the city (many towns in China were developed in this way—through the benevolence of one of it's people).
Memorial to a man who helped build universities and other public institutions in Xiamen.
And we visited the island of Gu Lang Yu, which is Xiamen's main tourist attraction. I think all of us in the group were pretty tired at this point on the tour, so we didn't explore too much of the island. Given more time and energy, I am sure it would have been interesting—Gu Lang Yu has an international past, with many ex-pats living on the island. Today, it is known as "Embassy Island," with something like 100 foreign embassies squeezed onto it's tiny body.
By far the most interesting part of our time in Xiamen was actually our visit to a place about 3 hours outside of the city, a place called Hakka House. The Hakka are an ethnic minority in the region that live in huge, communal, circular houses made out of mud, sticky rice, and stones.
View of Hakka House from above.
View of Hakka House from the inside.
Hakka houses are are built in a circular shape for protection from local bandits and animals. They are really big, but they house only one family…though "one family" can mean up to 4 generations of grandparents, parents, kids, uncles, cousins, etc. The first floor of a Hakka house is all kitchens, with storage on the second floor, and living quarters on the top floor. It can take years to build a Hakka house, since they are made of mud and sticky rice…you have to wait for the first floor to dry before building the next floor.
Though it has become a UNESCO World Heritage site, the Hakka House is still a functioning village. We saw many domestic scenes as we walked through the site:
Little girl getting her hair washed by her grandmother. She was screaming and carrying on as her grandma tried to comb the tangles out of her hair.
Woman with amazing hands wrapping zong zi.
Before we went to Hakka House, we stopped by a local village for lunch that was having it's market day. We had some free time before lunch to wander around and check out all the stuff for sale: live chickens, strange vegetables, intestines hanging on meat hooks…
My mom with some sort of mushroom.
I don't know why, but I LOVE this photo of an old lady in the market.
I really enjoyed our time at Hakka House and this local village, but our visit was far too short. Because it was a 3 hour drive from Xiamen each way, we had to hurry back for our special goodbye dinner, where we played a Xiamen dice game and ate something called "sea worm." I have to admit, it was fun to do this eating tour with Frank, but I am not sure how much more crazy stuff we could have eaten!
In Xiamen, we said goodbye to my parents as we prepared to head our separate ways (us to Yangshuo, and my parents back to Taiwan via Jinmen). We had an incredible time traveling together with Eddo as a family, and it was truly a special experience to be with my mom on her first visit to China and with my Dad on his first visit back to Taiwan in 26 years. I feel that through this trip, I understand so much more about my parents than I did before. As I told Jeremy, "In the US, I feel like my parents are so Chinese. In Taiwan, I felt like they were Americans, and in China, I feel like they are Taiwanese!" The truth is, they are all three of those things, as am I, as is my brother. I see my parents in a new light now…I never thought of them as "international" before, but traveling through Asia with them, I see that they really are the embodiment of that word. I learned so much more about my heritage and I understand more deeply my responsibility to transmit the lessons I've learned from my parents and my grandparents to the next generation.
In an email, my parents described this leg of our journey as "the trip of a lifetime." Indeed, it was a trip of many lifetimes, and of many lives convening to lead us to this place, together, as a family. Thank you, Mommy, Daddy, and Eddo for coming out to travel with us, sharing your stories, and discovering this land that is both familiar and unfamiliar to us all. We will treasure this time together for many more lifetimes to come.
After saying goodbye to Eddo in Shanghai, we headed off to Wuyi Shan (Wuyi Mountain), in Fujian province. Our introduction to Wuyi Shan was kicked off quite ceremoniously by The Scariest Dinner We've Had So Far. We were taken to a restaurant specializing in "local delicacies", if by "local" you mean "scary" and by "delicacies" you mean "all breed of mountain animals." We ate wild boar and snake and mountain toad and turtle and wild pheasant and and…the list goes on. By the end of the meal we didn't know if we should be more scared of what dish was coming next or of ourselves!
This is what snake soup looks like.
After sleeping off our scary meal, we started the next day off with a ride on a bamboo raft.
Our bamboo raft man told us many, many jokes in Chinese (of which I understood exactly NONE). My parents had a good time, though, so that's all that matters. Of course, Bamboo Raft Man is no match for my Dad when it comes to getting attention…as we passed through a narrow channel, my Pops made like Tarzan and howled mightily, his voice bouncing off the rocks from one end of the river to the other.
Um, is this REALLY my father-in-law?!?
As you're floating down the river, you can see a bunch of people climbing the mountain; they look like little ants scrambling up the steep rock face.
Later on that afternoon, we did a little role reversal and WE were those little ants on the mountainside! The view from up top is stupendous, and despite the super steep climb on slippery wet rock, we all made it to the top! I was extra proud of my mom for pushing hard to make it up the mountain!
The following day, we did some more hiking near the Blue Dragon Waterfall area, which was also quite pretty.
But to me, the most interesting part of the Wuyi Shan area was the little run-down village (Xiamei) that the rest of the tour group wasn't interested in at all. In fact, only my family walked through the entire village—the rest of the tour group turned around halfway through and waited on the bus. I guess they thought it was TOO run down and dirty, but I felt it was refreshing to see a place that wasn't cleaned up and commercialized and polished for the tourist market.
The main drag in the village was filled with old ladies sorting tea leaves. Tea is a big cash crop for rural China, so cultivating tea is one of the major ways you can make a livable wage outside of the cities. Apparently tea sorters get paid for the number of bad leaves they pick out of the batch (not the number of good leaves they leave in!).
I liked observing the people—young and old—who lived in this town, and wondering what their lives were like: what makes them laugh? Where do they brush their teeth? What do they want to be when they grow up? Silly yet intimate questions, I guess.
Two boys playing Chinese checkers.
Old man on the main drag in Xiamei village.
Xiamei seems a world apart from places like Shanghai. It makes you wonder…as the government puts more and more effort into improving (economically) the lives of its poorer rural residents, how long before the people of Xiamei decide to move to the cities, where they can make more money hauling loads of laundry up a multi-story building than they can sorting tea leaves? How much longer before places like Xiamei are simply a relic?

A Nonlinear Fracture Mechanics Predictive Procedure for the Short Crack Effect in Fatigue,
Descriptive Note:
Corporate Author:
Personal Author(s):
Report Date:
Pagination or Media Count:
When the predictive techniques of linear elastic fracture mechanics LEFM are applied to physically short fatigue cracks, it is often found that the actual crack growth rate is considerably underestimated. This means that damage tolerance and other fracture control methods that rely on accurate crack growth predictions could be quite nonconservative. Consequently, considerable attention has been devoted to identifying the causes of the accelerated growth rates and on ways of improving upon the currently available predictions. Virtually all of these have been based exclusively upon LEFM considerations. In contrast, this paper addresses the short crack problem from the point of view that an elastic-plastic fracture mechanics parameter may offer the basis for a resolution of the dilemma. The specific approach that is taken is one that focusses on the crack-tip crack-opening displacement CTOD as a characterizing parameter. The use of CTOD is at least as general as current LEFM procedures. Of equal importance, the CTOD may possibly be valid where LEFM is not. An illustrative example is used to show the non-linear character of this approach.

She Walks in Beauty
She walks in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all that's best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes:
Thus mellow'd to that tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies.
One shade the more, one ray the less,
Had half impaired the nameless grace
Which waves in every raven tress,
Or softly lightens o'er her face;
Where thoughts serenely sweet express
How pure, how dear their dwelling-place.
And on that cheek, and o'er that brow,
So soft, so calm, yet eloquent,
The smiles that win, the tints that glow,
But tell of days in goodness spent,
A mind at peace with all below,
A heart whose love is innocent!
"She Walks in Beauty" is a short lyrical poem in iambic tetrameter written in 1813 by Lord Byron, and is one of his most famous works.
It is said to have been inspired by an event in Byron's life; while at a ball, Byron saw Mrs. Anne Beatrix Wilmot, the wife of his cousin, Robert Wilmot. He was struck by her unusual beauty, and the next morning the poem was written.[1]
It is thought that she was the first inspiration for his unfinished epic poem about Goethe, a personal hero of his. In this unpublished work, which Byron referred to in his letters as his magnum opus, he switches the gender of Goethe and gives him the same description of his cousin.[citation needed]
Cultural references
The first two verses are cited in the novel The Philadelphian by Richard P. Powell. The beginning of the poem is quoted by a character in Arcadia, one of the major plays of Tom Stoppard. The poem is also referenced in a House of Night book, where Nathan, in his reminiscences of Byron, suggests (without any justification) that the subject of the poem may have been Byron's half-sister, Augusta Leigh.[2]
Musical settings
The poem has inspired various composers over time, including Roger Quilter, Gerald Finzi, Isaac Nathan, Nicolas Flagello, Connor J. Koppin and Chanticleer Men's Chorus Conductor/Composer Eric Barnum. The first line of British rock band Suede's song "Heroine" is "She walks in beauty, like the night."[3]
The first four lines of the poem are recited by Major Charles Winchester, played by David Ogden Stiers, in the 1979 M*A*S*H episode "Ain't Love Grand". Also in an episode of The Cosby Show when mother, Clair Huxtable recites the poem to her former professor of Hillman College. Part of the poem is recited by Cleaver Greene, played by Richard Roxburgh, to his son, Finnegan "Fuzz" Greene, played by Keegan Joyce, in the initial episode (2010) of the Australian television series Rake.

Okay – so we're back on the MLM trail once again!
It's been a while now since I could be bothered to venture into reviewing this form of marketing, but I have received numerous requests for PlanProMatrix reviews over the last several weeks – I thought it was about time I pulled my finger out and got back on the horse!
Now – a quick disclaimer for those of you that are not familiar with this site…
I'm reviewing a MLM product/service today, and I'm well known for a bit of a 'MLM-hater'.
The truth of the matter is that I've had A LOT of experience with these marketing companies over the years, and I've met A LOT of people that have ended up (severely) out of pocket after trying to use one.
What am I trying to say here?
Well…don't expect a highly positive review or recommendation off me!
With that out of the way, Is PlanProMatrix a scam or is it legit?
let's take a closer look at the PlanProMatrix system…
The PlanProMatrix Review
What is PlanProMatrix?
The company itself is owned by a dude named Mark George Naval and they started out in business back in 2013, they base their work model on a data entry system. They are based in the Philippines, but at the time of writing this, it doesn't really matter where you are based – anyone can sign up and work with them.
There are three main 'avenues' which you can choose from to earn with this lot – Data Entry, E-Loading and Referrals.
Sound a bit confusing?
Yep, it is. Let's take a closer look at each:
The Data Entry gig is near enough self explaining – you log into their platform and carry out work linked to data entry and data encoding software and services. All work is done through a software interface that they provide.
The E-loading is basically topping up your mobile devices (phone usually) that are prepaid. You know prepaid credits, cards and that type of thing?
Referrals are the people you drag into the system with your marketing – you then earn a percentage of the cash that they earn.
All a bit too confusing for you? Why not try our #1 FREE recommendation to work online HERE!
How Much Does All This Cost?
So how much is this PlanProMatrix sign up gonna cost you?
Well, to be honest, it's really not that much when compared to other MLM opportunities out there…
The Starter Membership costs 600 Philippine pesos (approximately $12) to open up, and the premium membership will set you back 1850 Php (approximately $36).
There's not much difference between the two membership levels, other than the amount of commission you earn from your referrals.
Fortunately, there are businesses with a more straightforward commission structure, and are FREE, such as Wealthy Affiliate. This bunch can help you start an online business where you will be able to work with major companies like Amazon and eBay that pay you in a nice straightforward manner.
PlanProMatrix Guide – The Pros & Cons
When I was researching this company I decided to first try out the Better Business Bureau website to discover their thoughts on the MLM setup. Turns out that at the time of writing this, they have no listing there. Make what you want of this, but it doesn't exactly fill me with confidence!
Another downside of this opportunity is the constant need to recruit – like 99.9% of MLM businesses out there. Now, I'm not exactly thrilled by the prospect of trying to get everyone I know to sign up with a Philippine business, and I'm pretty sure that you'll feel the same way!
Most MLM companies have some sort of income disclosure statement on their homepage, usually in tiny print somewhere where you'll miss it when signing up. These statements give you some sort of idea about what money you are going to see back from the business. PlanProMatrix does have a income disclosure statement – which is a trifle worrying from my point of view!
Now on to the Pros…
Well, there's nothing to report here I'm afraid, and you'll find out why below…
Is PlanProMatrix a Scam or Legit?
Unfortunately, while I'm not going to call this setup a scam, I am going to advise that you stay well clear of them if you are looking to earn some money online.
They have been accused of allegedly using products as a disguise to hide behind a pyramid scheme and I've heard on the grapevine that certain government officials are getting involved (and you don't want to mess about with those guys!).
Also, whenever a MLM puts an emphasis on recruitment, I start to worry.
If you are looking for a online business model that doesn't depend on recruiting a lot of people under you, you may want to check out our number one recommendation below…

Twitter was born in 2006 and has grown incredibly over the years as more and more people have discovered its usefulness. There are always new people joining Twitter, so there's never a dull moment.
Twitter today is now mostly used for networking and discussions based on interests. Much like Facebook, Twitter is another way to reach out to different crowds and new people. A company should use Twitter for many reasons.
1. Everyone else is doing it. In today's world, having a twitter is hot. 2. A fast way to get the message out. 3. It will help you stay on top of your industry and/or market segment. Twitter allows you to hear what others are saying, which is a good way to keep an eye on your competitors.

Absurdly Driven looks at the world of business with a skeptical eye and a firmly rooted tongue in cheek.
A Flight Attendant never knows what sorts of people will appear for a flight.
Or what state they'll be in.
The Flight Attendant hopes for quiet, for all carry-ons to be small enough to stow in the overhead bins and for the flight to be on time, so that they can get home on time.
A Thursday-night to Friday morning Delta Air Lines red-eye from Salt Lake City to Orlando didn't offer Flight Attendants quite what they were hoping.
As the Miami Herald reports, the Boeing 757 with 187 passengers and 6 crew members on board ended up making a detour to Oklahoma City, where it was met by police officers.
They were there to greet Utah resident Derek Maas, a passenger on the plane. Maas, police say, was drunk and had headbutted a Flight Attendant.
It seems that Maas may have been intoxicated by the time he got on the plane.
Things seem to have escalated when he pestered Flight Attendants to give him more alcohol.
Flight Attendants are in a slightly more difficult position than bartenders. The latter can cut a customer off and hope that he disappears into the night.
If not, perhaps a bouncer or two will assist in kicking the customer out.
On a plane, there isn't quite such a luxury. Planes are claustrophobic, with passengers in dangerous proximity to each other. You can't immediately kick someone out.
It's little surprising, therefore, that the Delta captain decided that the plane had to make an unscheduled landing, in order to remove Maas.
NewsOK, though, offers a difficult kink to how Maas allegedly became more intoxicated.
It says that Flight Attendants initially refused to serve him more drinks. However, Maas allegedly did a deal with Flight Attendant Antonio Jose Brazao that if he could get a couple more drinks, he'd go to sleep.
This wouldn't be the easiest judgment call for Brazao to make. Could he be sure that Maas would behave? Could he be sure that if he didn't give Maas the drinks he'd behave?
It seems, though, that Brazao may have kept his side of the bargain, while Maas didn't.
He allegedly downed the drinks quickly, demanded more a scene ensued.
Brazao was, police say, the Flight Attendant who was headbutted -- while Maas was then restrained in his seat by the crew, with passengers lending a helping hand.
What if the Flight Attendant had refused to partake of Maas's deal? What if he'd been steadfast in say no? Didn't he, some might think, have a duty to say no?
If he had said no, would the situation have turned worse all the same?
I asked Delta whether it had a specific policy in incidents such as these. An airline spokesman told me:
Delta applauds the quick action and professionalism of the crew of Delta flight 2603 operating from Salt Lake City to Orlando which diverted to Oklahoma City after a customer became unruly and violent on board. The crew restrained the customer and the flight was met by law enforcement in Oklahoma City, where he was removed and taken into custody. The flight continued to Orlando, arriving two hours past schedule. The safety and security of our customers and crew are always Delta's top priority.
Airlines are becoming increasingly concerned about drunkenness on flights.
Ryanair, for example, is calling for restrictions on alcohol sales at airports.
It is, indeed, startling when one arrives at an airport early in the morning and some people are downing beers or something even more potent.
Few, I fear, are doing if for medicinal reasons.
In the Delta case, hindsight is perfect, of course. But if the police statements and reports are accurate, one can't help but wonder how Maas was allowed on the plane in the first place.

Earthquake detection, mitigation and insurance
Asia is no stranger to natural catastrophes. Of all those that affect the continent, earthquakes are the most destructive and the deadliest.
An infamous earthquake in 2008 in Beichuan killed more than 1,000 children in a tragedy that still resonates across China today.
Rural communities are reluctant to purchase property insurance on either an individual or group basis. As a result of uninsured losses, local governments in China have received cash pools from the central government in order to provide interim compensation to local communities.
This is an unsatisfactory arrangement and so the central bank turned to the banks to find a remedy for this difficult situation.
Of all the loans issued by commercial banks in China, 32% are for assets located in areas of high earthquake risk. Borrowers who suffer damage and losses due to an earthquake are likely to default on their repayments.
Though traditional earthquake insurance is available, purchase is not mandatory and penetration is low. As a result, the probability of default risk remains high.
In seeking alternatives to compensate earthquake victims in China's rural regions, the authorities have turned to parametric insurance products.
China's first anti-poverty parametric insurance programme was rolled out across 28 rural counties in Heilongjiang province in 2016. It was designed to protect farmers against loss of income from excessive rain, floods, droughts and low temperatures.
The scheme helps the farming community mitigate the impact of natural catastrophe events on their livelihoods and provides funds to effect quicker recovery.
A second parametric programme was launched last month to cover seven counties in Shangluo, a region still grappling with poverty.
The network currently consists of about 15,000 observation stations that can detect ground tremors. When moderate tremors are detected – of the order of magnitude of five and above – the system alerts people in the region within seconds via SMS, social network and public broadcasts.
This scheme has already had $290 million committed to it. It is intended that stations placed 50km apart will cover the mainland by 2020.
Earthquakes continue to devastate China's inner provinces, many of which remain low-income communities. A combination of state-backed infrastructure, public/private partnerships, and a focus on credit guarantee insurance demonstrate the Chinese government's ability to not only foster innovation but to deliver it directly.

Reliance Jio has been rumored to launch its JioGigaFiber for commercial users for sometime now. While the launch has been delayed multiple times in the past year, a new report claims that the company has concluded the testing phase. The company is said to be optimizing its go-to-market strategy for the fibre-to-the-home broadband service and establish last mile connectivity. The Mukesh Ambani led telecom player has acquired DEN Networks and Hathway Cable, which are expected to play key role in Reliance Jio achieving last mile connectivity for JioGigaFiber service.

In a report by ET Telecom, the company has confirmed that the service will be rolled out across 1,600 cities based of series of successful beta tests. The service is aimed to bring home broadband, entertainment and smart home solutions in a unified package. "After successful execution of mobility business, Jio is now focused on catapulting India s under served Home & Enterprise connectivity market to global standards with its next-generation FTTX services," Ambani said.

"Jio mobility services along with GigaFiber fixed-broadband services and associated technology platforms have been designed to transform India with the power of Digital Revolution and reinvent Reliance as a Technology Platform Company," he further added.
Reliance Jio first announced JioGigaFiber service in August last year and has been testing the FTTH broadband service with select users in major cities for sometime now. The company is reportedly testing a "Triple Play" plan with its employees where consumers get unlimited voice calling, 100GB of high-speed data and free subscription to Jio Home TV. The subscription also comes bundled with access to other suite of Jio applications.

Reliance Jio, which started commercial service as a wireless operator, in September 2016 announced that it has surpassed 300 million subscribers in the country. During the fourth earnings announcement, Reliance Jio announced that it is the first telecom operator to surpass 300 million users in such a short time. It also reported that Jio's operating revenue in FY19 was Rs 38,838 crore while EBITDA margin was 38.9 percent.

Amira's products have been extremely popular in Malaysia for several years now and as such, one of our major international offices is located in the country's capital of Kuala Lumpur and so I often find myself in this wonderful city for business.
I have always loved the hustle and bustle that seems to characterise Kuala Lumpur, it reminds me of my home city of Delhi in many ways. The area of Bukat Bintang is a must visit for any tourist to the Malaysian federal capital and somewhere that is first on my list whenever I manage to find some free time here. Bukat Bintang is a large retail and entertainment district and is located in the affluent North East side of the city known as the Golden Triangle.
The district has many of Malaysia's finest shopping malls, with the Berjaya Times Square complex being my personal favourite. This is partly because of the enormous variety of stores on offer, as well as the fact that, as the eighth tallest building in the world, it is quite the architectural feat. Bukat Bintang is also a fantastic example of a foodie heaven and Chulan Square offers the best the district has in fine dining, with a whole host of Malay, Indian, Chinese and Middle Eastern restaurants on offer.

Nice photos, Eric. One day I hope to attend this meet, probably once I can "retire"...
Thanks for posting the pics, Eric! Very nice. Looks like the weather was great, too.
I was thinking of you, Dale when I took the picture of the 1917 PowerPlus. There was also an unrestored 1918 Indian PP in the building, but it was so dark I knew the picture wouldn't take.

Young season a disappointment so far
Despite losing three All-Americans to graduation last year, the USC women's soccer team entered this season ranked eighth in the country and were expected to reload with young talent.
Four games into the season, however, the Women of Troy have a record of 1-3 and have dropped out of the national rankings.
Using a starting lineup featuring six freshmen and sophomores, USC has struggled to find the chemistry and intricate passing game that defined its successes in the past two seasons.
USC coach Ali Khosroshahin, while disappointed with the early season results, understands the growing pains associated with having a young team.
"You have to give each player the opportunity to grow into it," Khosroshahin said. "You have to stand up and take responsibility when things don't go well, and I think they're doing that. I definitely see improvement every time they step on the field."
The Women of Troy showed flashes of their potential last weekend in their 4-0 rout of Cal State Fullerton. USC struggled again two days later, however, losing 1-0 to Ohio State on a late penalty-kick goal.
"I think with any group that's young and inexperienced, there's gonna be mistakes," USC senior goalkeeper Kristin Olsen said. "I think it would be a little more frustrating if we were older, but because we're so young we're trying to figure it out. But it's getting better and that's what counts."
USC's young players will have a chance to continue to improve this weekend when the Women of Troy take on Gonzaga and Michigan at McAlister Field.
The Zags come into their Friday match against USC with a 3-1 record. Redshirt Midfielder senior Lori Conrad leads the team with three goals while junior midfielder Sheridan Jones has three assists. Gonzaga did lose to USC's Pac-10 rival Washington State 3-0 last week.
Michigan is 3-3 on the season and will face Cal State Fullerton Friday before they take on the Women of Troy on Sunday. The Wolverines scored a combined eight goals in wins last week against Central Michigan and Eastern Michigan. Midfielder Jackie Carron leads the team with two goals and three assists.
USC could get a boost this weekend in the form of All-American defender, redshirt senior Meagan Holmes, who may return this weekend from an ankle injury suffered earlier this season. Junior Ashli Sandoval, who led USC in points last season, has filled in for Holmes in defense and will be allowed to return to her normal position in the midfield if Holmes is able to play.
"We'd love to have Ashli in the midfield," Khosroshahin said. "But we need other players to step into those roles and perform."
USC's game against Gonzaga kicks off at 3 p.m. on Friday, while Sunday's contest against Michigan is set for a noon start time.

Reverse column stacking order
By default, columns that stand side by side on a large device will change to stacked columns on a small device, where left to right becomes top to bottom. You can reverse the stacking order so the columns stack bottom to top.
We'll use an example where you have a three-column row with a Call to Action module in each column, as shown in this screenshot.
Using our example, here's a screenshot of the default stacking order in mobile view:
And here's what happens when you reverse the stacking order:
Note: The reversed stacking order applies to all columns in a group, so you only have to change the setting for one of the columns in a row. For more complex examples of how layers of columns in a row stack, see the column layouts overview in Related Articles.
For more details about how columns stack, see the column layouts overview in the Related Articles below.
To reverse the stacking order of columns on small devices:
- Mouse over one of the modules in your columns and click Column Settings.
- Navigate to the Advanced tab.
- In the Responsive Layout section, change Stacking Order to Reversed.

The way how you prepare vegetables affects the nutritional content of and their taste and texture.
Here are some general rules to keep in mind:
– Nutrient can be lost when vegetables are exposed to air and light and, so they shouldn't be washed, chopped, or sliced until you are ready to use them.
– Long soaking of vegetables is not recommended, as it can leach out water-soluble vitamins. So, they should be rinsed quickly but thoroughly under the cold running water.
– Remove dirt that clings, by using a soft brush, while lukewarm water also helps to release sand and grit from leafy vegetables.
Roasting/Baking Vegetables
They are dry-heat methods, which can be used successfully for vegetables with a thick skin. Some vegetables need oil, moisture, or a combination to keep them from drying out during the process of cooking. Very wet vegetables (e.g. tomatoes) are sometimes roasted in order to partially dehydrate them.
How to Cook Broccoli and Cauliflower?
If you are already a huge fan of roasted brussels sprouts, baked kale chips, and oven-crisped cabbage it is not a reason to not try out roasted cauliflower and broccoli.
Once you try it, you are never going back to the steamed stuff. The oven transformed the little veggie trees into the crisp nuggets that could almost pass for chips. They can be addictive, so don't be surprised if anybody around you fights for the last bites!
Here's how to prepare them:
– Cut the cauliflower and broccoli into pieces (equal).
– Spread pieces on a rimmed sheet tray, leaving space between them.
– Drizzle salt and pepper to taste and olive oil across the veggies.
– Roast in the oven at 400°F for 18-23 minutes, or until crispy.

A fresh evaluation of the Burmese narrative through the female perspective: Interview with Nilanjana Sengupta
by Zafar Anjum
The Female Voice of Myanmar: Khin Myo Chit to Aung San Suu Kyi by Nilanjana Sengupta (Cambridge University Press, India) is a scholarly treatise on Myanmar. The book will be released in late September in Singapore. Sengupta is a Visiting Scholar at Asia Research Institute (National University of Singapore).
There aren't many Indian writers who write on Myanmar, so this is an important work of scholarship. The publisher describes the book as a "commentary on the evolving state of Myanmar and female thought from colonial times to the present, seen through the eyes of four Burmese female activist-writers".
The book presents a female perspective on the history and political evolution of Myanmar. Through an exploration of the literary works of four carefully selected women activists— four major voices in the book: Khin Myo Chit, Ludu Daw Amar, Ma Thida, Aung San Suu Kyi—who have also been prolific writers of their times, the book seeks a fresh evaluation of the Burmese narrative.
Tell us about your interest in Myanmar? What got you started on this project that tracks the lives and thoughts of four strong female voices of Myanmar?
If I really dig long and hard, I think my interest in Burma stems from a childhood spent in Calcutta. Frequent references to Burma are to be found in old Bengali literature when under the British, Rangoon or the beautiful mountainous town of Maymyo (later renamed Pyin U Lwin) was an alternate home to Bengalis; when many Bengali families considered Bengal to be their janmosthan (place of birth) but Rangoon to be their karmosthan (place of work). I cannot forget the Burma of Sarat Chandra Chattopadhyay's novel Srikanta—a place where the hero comes of age and is forced to redress his moral and ethical perspective. Or the letters Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose wrote to his brother in 1925 when he was imprisoned in Mandalay, marvelling at the social status of Burmese women.
So if you ask about my interest in Burma, I would credit it to a strict mother who insisted I read Bengali literature at length before delving into anything Western!
Your book is a commentary on the evolving state of Myanmar and female thought from colonial times to the present, seen through the eyes of four Burmese female activist-writers. What kind of image of Burma emerges in the process?
Before I answer your question, I would like to digress a little and mention that although apparently the key protagonists of my book are the 4 women authors —Khin Myo Chit, Daw Amar, Ma Thida and Aung San Suu Kyi about whom I write— the central focus remains Myanmar throughout. This is primarily because I find all four women to be consistently preoccupied with Myanmar and in fact, I have often been amazed at the extent of their preoccupation. I mean, wouldn't it surprise you if a woman, supposedly writing an emotional letter to her prospective husband, merely speaks of the debt she owes her country? For that is what Aung San Suu Kyi does; in the 1970s, long before her political role in Myanmar, she famously writes to Dr Aris, "I only ask one thing, that should my people need me, you would help me to do my duty by them".
And as for the image of Myanmar that emerges when we look through the eyes of these 4 women—it is an evolving one. When Khin Myo Chit or Daw Amar writes about growing up in British Burma, despite the underlying tension and angst at the burgeoning British influence, the images are warm, colourful ones. Khin Myo Chit for instance writes of early mornings spent in her grandmother's home in Sagaing when yellow robed monks from a nearby monastery arrived at their doorstep and her grandmother ladled steaming hot rice and boiled peas soaked in sesamum oil into their black lacquered alms-bowls. The child Khin Myo Chit would watch as the monks walked on in a solemn single file and women from every house down the street came to take part in this act of merit. In contrast is Ma Thida's perspective. Born in 1966, she would not know a Myanmar that was not militarily controlled and her first memory would be of strife—of the Sino-Burmese riots which began in 1967. And again in Aung San Suu Kyi's contemporary writing, a more positive picture emerges—of a Myanmar attempting a transition towards partial democracy.
How did you zero in on the four major voices in your book: Khin Myo Chit, Ludu Daw Amar, Ma Thida, Aung San Suu Kyi. Can you share with us some interesting aspects of their lives?
Frankly there are many female authors of Burma who write with conviction and strength. There is Ma Ma Lay for instance who was remarkably close to the culture of her country, or Daw Mya Sein who was very analytical. Among the contemporary authors there are the equally thought-provoking Ma Sandar, Mo Mo (Inya), or Ju. At first, the decision to choose the 4 women I chose as representative voices of their times was more of an instinctual one. But with time, as I read more of their writing I was drawn by their literary style and individual philosophy.
Personally one of the things that interested me was how the family and geographical backgrounds shaped the voices of these four women. Their stories overlap and flow into each other as seamlessly as the four seasons of the year. Daw Amar and Khin Myo Chit shared the same birth year (1915) and went to the University of Rangoon a mere couple of years apart from each other. Yet they came away with very different learnings from their involvement in the anti-British student movement and this shaped their latter day perspectives. Khin Myo Chit would be one of the first Burmese authors to write about gender sensitivities while Daw Amar, as editor of the Ludu Daily would be vocal about the post-1948 political scenario. The democracy movement of 1988 (8-8-88 Movement) is the point where the 4 stories coalesce. By then Daw Amar and Khin Myo Chit are at the zenith of their literary careers. Ma Thida, on the other hand decides to take up serious journalism while the democracy movement unravels around her and the same movement propels Aung San Suu Kyi, till then a keen observer and a reluctant participant in Burmese politics, into the limelight.
How did you go about researching this book? Did you face any difficulties?
I think this project was one of the most difficult ones that I could have taken up, and perhaps for the same reason, it was also deeply satisfying. Language was a major barrier, since, to truly understand any of these authors, their Burmese writing needs to be read and assimilated. Khin Myo Chit and Aung San Suu Kyi write partially in English while the two others write almost entirely in Burmese. Besides, there was of course the issue of research sources. The state-run libraries of Myanmar are not easily accessible to foreigners and because of the country's turbulent past a lot of the archival records have been ruined.
Have you covered the disturbing ethnic violence that has kept Myanmar in the news in recent times? Don't you think that the Rohingya issue has tarnished the image of Myanmar the world over?
Of course I have covered the issue of ethnic violence and particularly that of the Rohingyas in some detail. I would have had to since now that is uppermost in people's mind. It is almost like—if there is no Rohingya issue there is no Aung San Suu Kyi! What I have attempted is not a justification of Suu Kyi's stance (or maybe as most would argue, her lack of it) vis-a-vis the Rohingyas but an unbiased portrayal of the on-the-ground situation as it stands today, a narrative that reflects the issue in its full complexity rather than the simplistic story of death and destruction which has caught the eye of the world media.
How do you see Myanmar's future?
Since 2012, Aung San Suu Kyi, with the support of much of the Burmese population, had expressed an interest in securing the presidency after President Thein Sein. There has been a lengthy and ongoing debate on the process of amending the 2008 Constitution. But as 2014 moved to 2015 and such constitutional change seemed unlikely, there was speculation that after the elections of 2015, the Speaker, Shwe Mann would take over as President of the country and continue as the Chairman of the ruling Union Solidarity and Development Party (USDP). Suu Kyi, with her National League for Democracy Party (NLD) would possibly sweep the polls, and with no clause in the 2008 constitution preventing her from taking the position, would take over as Speaker at the Pyithu Hluttaw. An understanding between Shwe Mann and Suu Kyi could have also meant avoiding a potentially destabilising outcome of an election win for the NLD. But in a recent move, the Speaker Thura Shwe Mann has been removed from the leadership of the USDP, which leaves former President Thein Sein arguably in a stronger position, likely to be considered for a second term. All eyes are on Myanmar as the country prepares for the national elections scheduled on November 8th. The results of the poll will tell who will hold the seats in Myanmar's bicameral parliament with 330 constituencies for the lower house and 168 constituencies for the upper house for the next five years.
Long years ago, in an otherwise rather anodyne piece of writing titled, My Country and People (intended for a juvenile readership, first published in 1985 by Burke Publishing Company, London with the title, Let's Visit Burma), Aung San Suu Kyi had written, "However, with its wealth of natural resources, there is always hope for the future. And that future lies in the hands of its peoples (italics mine)." I think her view has remained unchanged and I would take the liberty to echo the same conviction.

A majestic piece of art that I too have stumbled upon. please tell me, is the face in the top left hand corner of the painting supposed to be Jesus?
Seeing Double at the Salvador Dali Museum in St. Petersburg, Florida
Although I don't pretend to understand the surreal images of distorted females and melting clocks that pervade the art of Salvador Dali, his work had always intrigued me. I simply assumed the symbolism was an unknowable product of a demented mind. So I was surprised when the docent at the Salvador Dali Museum in St. Petersburg, Florida commented, "Luckily, Dali spoke and wrote voluminously about the meaning of his artwork while he was alive, thus we understand what each piece is meant to represent."
Fascinated, I followed the docent around the gallery as she related the history behind each piece and explained what the artist was trying to convey in his bizarre landscapes. With its 96 oils created between 1917-1970, the Salvador Dalí Museum is the permanent home of the world's most comprehensive collection of the renowned Spanish artist's work, including the Impressionist and Cubist styles of his early period, abstract work from his transition to Surrealism, the famous surrealist canvases for which he is best known, and examples of his preoccupation with religion and science during his classic period.
The tour ended at a sunken gallery where half a dozen of Dali's largest canvases hung. At the suggestion of our guide, we stood above and looked down on these floor-to-ceiling pieces in order to have a wider view. This was a different Dali – one that I had never experienced. "Look closely – what do you see?" our guide asked, gesturing toward the oil titled, "Halucinogenic Toreador."
I'd spotted the most obvious of the double images even before she asked, but was astonished when she began pointing out dozens of double images secreted throughout the painting. Almost everyone in the room could see the two male toreadors emerging from the two main Venus de Milo statues. Most could discern the Dalmatian dog hidden at the bottom of the painting and the head of the slain bull, with its pool of blood represented as a blue lagoon. But I had to get up close to see the smaller hidden images. The panting is littered with Venus de Milo statues and each one, no matter how tiny, contains the hidden image of a toreador's face.
Quite pleased that I now had a better grasp of Dali's life, work, and symbolism, I wandered back through the museum for one last look. Near the front entrance, the information panel next to one of Dali's quintessential melting clock images quoted the artist: "…just because I don't know the meaning of my art, does not mean it has no meaning…." Dali is probably laughing from his grave.
The Dali Museum in St. Petersburg, Florida is open 363 days each year, from 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday; and from noon to 5:30 p.m. on Sunday. Each Thursday, the museum stays open until 8 p.m. for "Dali After Dark" and offers reduced admission of $5 after 5 p.m., which is a significant discount from the regular $17 admission.

OMG, is very interesant this group of picture. I think i need to see that in person, Florida wait me.
It's huge. On of my most favorite pieces to visit. Make time to spend at least a half hour on all of the larger works. Look at them from different perspectives. There is so much to see.
After studying Dali for 30+ years I can impart some adventure fun for you when you are at the Dali museum in St Pete. Try to go on a bad day for tourism as the dolts walk by right way up in front and see nothing. The hidden images peak and reveal themselves at different distances and angles. Sometimes 50 feet and 30 degrees or 2 feet and 90 degrees. It is amazing the things that you can find that the tour operators still haven't found.
The one painting of his that I see nothing on it's hidden images is his "Last Supper". It is in Washington. Christ is flanked by semi invisible hideous demons on his left and Alien like Gray angels in robes on his right. This takes some moving around to get to come clear but it will.
Interesting museum. Thanks for sharing. If I ever get to Florida I'll go there.
I love the mystery and hidden meaning in these paintings – greast that you had a guide who helped you reveal the secret
If you have more questions about Dali, I am happy to help you.
You can reach me through:
He is not famous for nothing. But it is a matter of personal preference. One thing is for sure: these are not just meaningless brush strokes that many abstract artists use to express themselves. It takes a special mind to create this and a lot of work.
I'd have seen nothing in this painting without the incedible and detailed explanation. The planning and foresight to create such art is beyond my imagination.
Great post! I stumbled upon your site several weeks ago. I think it's great. Keep on keepin' on!
That's an interesting picture and I like your explanation.
