One week after your missed period, most home pregnancy tests HPTs will give you accurate answers. Early signs of pregnancy can occur before a positive pregnancy test, which is associated with the secretion of the hormone HCG (Human chorionic gonadotropin). Although this hormone detects in large numbers only after a missed menstruation, there are women who feel symptoms of pregnancy even before they miss their period.
Not to make a lot of burden, here are some facts that need to pay attention to recognize the early symptoms of pregnancy. At the beginning, we should know that women and their pregnancies are different. Some feel the signs within one week after conception, while others come to realize only after the missing period and positive pregnancy test. Some women do not feel any symptoms. In addition to eliminating the possibility that the symptoms associated with something else unrelated to pregnancy. Also, women differently feel pregnancy. Some do not change their daily activities until just before birth, while others change their habits from the start. It is quite normal that pregnancy changes emotional state, creates fears and doubts about pregnancy and childbirth as well as anticipation and excitement.
As soon as you suspect you are pregnant, you should visit the doctor or to do a pregnancy test. If you are pregnant it is crucial to learn as much as you can about pregnancy and how to take care of yourself and the baby growing inside you. Cigarettes, alcohol and certain drugs can harm the unborn child so you should immediately discontinue their use. Yes, as the baby is now growing inside you, you will experience new feelings. Feeling of loss of appetite and weakness too. You might feel tired . You will feel some changes in your breasts.They will increase in size and sometimes are painful. Please don't worry if you feel irritable and depressed as these are all due to hormonal changes inside you. But remember if you have severe pain in abdomen or reddish discharge from vagina please consult your doctor immediately.

You may or may not have noticed that I haven't posted a blog in about two weeks. If you didn't notice it's no skin off my nose. If you did, I am seriously flattered! Thank you for caring about this little thing that I do! If you were wondering why the silence, I have your answer: because for about a week there I literally didn't do anything. Something very scary happened to me, something that has never happened before.
I gave up.
Not in an "on life" manner, but for me it was still really dramatic. I have been so stressed, so sick all the time, so nervous about the future and about getting a foothold in the industry to build myself a life, that I sort of snapped. Not to mention that with all the public shootings and some recent digestive issues on my end, I've been edging towards agoraphobia. For a day or two last week, I honestly started to ask myself, "Would you be happy just staying home, working in a bookstore or something, and having a normal life?" Please note that there is nothing wrong with this trajectory, but I have never throughout my cognitive existence had this thought. I've always had intense drive and high hopes and determination to make art for the rest of my life, but things finally got to be too much, at least in the scary bounds of my imagination.
I came home and came down from the high of seeing my Pittsburgh friends and Pittsburgh art, a come down that really sucked. I spent the week binging the first season and half of the second of Heroes (the first season has 23 40-minute episodes, so that's bad even for me). I felt dull and dumb and like a non-person, but at least it was easy. Man, easy can be really bad for you. All of this being said, there is no need to fear that after this week of nothingness I've given up on my desired career. (And if you would fear, I ADORE you for caring so much!)
When the weekend hit I read a lot of my Victorian novel instead of Netflixing, took the dog on some walks, and started up the yoga again. I made myself move and I made myself breathe and I remembered that yeah, life is hard, but that if I give up on my dreams because they're hard, I'll never be happy. So here I am, blogging again, and finally beginning to look for NYC sublets.
Starting out is the hardest part, and often seems like a never-ending test of endurance and identity. Obviously, this is not the most ideal time to be perpetually ill. But I'll get better, because I am strong. Just like all of you incredible readers are strong. Even if our imaginations bring us down, we all have the power to get back up.
Thanks for listening to my feels-rant. I'll have some real stuff with the humour and the health coming out next week :)

Perhaps you've come close to filling an entire pillowcase with candy after a night of trick-or-treating. An impressive haul, no doubt, one that could last you the better part of a year if you play it right… But if you were to try to eat it all at once, how much could you get through before you dropped dead?
The helpful science folks behind the YouTube channel Reaction decided to tackle this age-old mystery in a video. How many would you think? Maybe a thousand Snickers bars?
Wrong. Way less!
Looking at the sugar content in both fun-size candy bars and candy corn, Reaction crunched the numbers and found it would take just 262 fun-size candy bars and 1,627 pieces of candy corn to kill a 180-pound adult. That's a lot, but not as much as you'd might think—and maybe doable in one sitting?
When you look at it from the nutritional perspective, the numbers become more formidable. Two hundred and sixty-two small candy bars racks up to about 20,000 calories—and more importantly, nearly 5.5 pounds of sugar.
READ MORE: The Poisoned Candy Expert Is Pretty Sure No One's Trying to Kill Your Kids on Halloween
But consider that you can buy 135 fun-size candy bars for just $15.52, meaning that for just over 30 bucks, you can purchase a likely-fatal dose of candy. And given that Americans are projected to spend $3.8 billion on Halloween candy this year—5 percent more than last year—there's probably enough Halloween candy out there right now to kill us all.
To think, while parents have worried about Halloween candy that's been tampered with for decades, all along kids were potentially sitting on a fatal dose of regular old Three Musketeers.
READ MORE: A Completely Serious Guide to Pairing Overpriced Wine with Garbage Halloween Candy
Reaction helpfully provides a formula that lets you calculate your personal max candy intake in the description of their video.
Of course, you'll probably be barfing your brains out before you get to that point, but it's good to know, nonetheless, so you don't waste your last meal on a little cardboard box of Good & Plenties.

A friend wants to play a betting game with you. There are $3 $ upside-down cards on the table $2$ black and $1$ red. Your job is to find the red card. For every dollar you bet he will give you $2$ to $1$ odds (i.e. you win $2$ dollars for every dollar you bet).
How do you solve this? What percentage of games would you have to win to come out on top?
What I have tried:
$\frac{1}{3}$ chance of winning $= 33.33% $
$2:1$ odds$ = 66.66% $
$66.66 * 33.33 = 22.22$
Is this right? Or am I doing this wrong? Would you have to be correct more that $22%$ of the time.

text: How Jair Bolsonaro's Election Could Reshape Brazil's Cultural Landscape 3:00 AM PST 11/12/2018 by Jennifer Green FACEBOOK TWITTER EMAIL ME Ricardo Moraes-Pool/Getty Images From censorship to reductions in government support for the film sector, insiders prepare for upheaval in Latin America's biggest entertainment market: 'It will be uncertain times for people that produce culture in Brazil' Within a week after far-right candidate Jair Bolsonaro won the presidential election in Brazil on Oct. 28, concerns about the future of the country's entertainment sector became a major talking point at the Rio De Janeiro International Film Festival, which ran Nov. 1-11. Top among those concerns: the potential rolling back of government incentives and mechanisms that have helped grow the industry and, more broadly, of basic rights and freedoms in this diverse country. The festival's co-executive director, Ilda Santiago, says she didn't attend a single presentation of the 80 short and feature films playing at the fest where Bolsonaro's election wasn't a topic of discussion. "The festival is playing a major role in allowing producers, directors, all the different professionals to say we want to guarantee that from here on we go forward, not back," she told The Hollywood Reporter. Bolsonaro won with just over 55 percent of the vote. His appeal was attributed to disillusion with unemployment, crime and economic instability in the country, as well as cases of corruption under the ruling Workers' Party. Supporters said they hoped Bolsonaro would "fix things." "I'm pretty optimistic," says Brazil's outgoing Minister of Culture Sergio Sa Leitao. "Brazil is already recovering from the huge economic crisis that we had here in 2015 and 2016. I think the new government, at least in the economic field, has the right agenda, which means doing the structural reforms that Brazil really needs in order to be a competitive player in the global arena." But as a candidate and before, Bolsonaro expressed extreme views on everything from the uses of torture to the merits of dictatorships, and he has made patently offensive remarks about women, minorities and members of the LGBTQ community. "A dark cloud of intimidation and repression is looming over Brazilian civil society," warns Andrew Fishman, Rio-based managing editor of investigative news outlet The Intercept Brasil. "Jair Bolsonaro is not 'the Brazilian Trump.' All signs suggest that he is far more extreme, far more violent and far less restrained by institutions." At the recent Sao Paulo International Film Festival, which ran Oct. 18-31 and overlapped with the election, director Brunna Laboissiere, who premiered the doc Fabiana, about a trans woman truck driver, says, "The general climate [at the fest] was critical of the setbacks that the country is going through, fear and uncertainty about what is going to happen, but at the same time a feeling of unity to resist against future attacks." Government Support Almost every person interviewed for this story underscored a need for the entertainment industry, admittedly antagonistic to a Bolsonaro win, to sit down and talk with the new administration, which has not yet made its plans for the sector clear. "In Brazil, the creative economy is responsible for 2.64% of our national GDP, more than 1 million direct formal jobs, and more than 200,000 companies and institutions. It's a power force behind Brazil's development," says Sa Leitao, who will take on the role of culture secretary for the state of Sao Paulo starting in January. During the transition period, he says he hopes to convince the new government of the value of the creative economy. "If they pay attention to that and increase investments in the years ahead, our creative entertainment areas can really boost the development of Brazil," he says. But the fate of the Ministry of Culture itself is unclear. It's expected to be folded into or merged with other ministries as part of Bolsonaro's widely publicized plan to shrink the number of ministries from 29 to a reported 15 or 16. There's talk of merging Culture either with Education and Sports or with Tourism and Sports, the latter being the option Sa Leitao says he would favor. "I don't think combining ministries is a bad idea in itself," he observes. "For instance, if you take the U.K., which seems a benchmark to me for cultural policies today, they have a ministry that combines culture, tourism, sports and media." He also says he is suggesting transforming the formal status of the National Cinema Agency (ANCINE), as well as the Brazilian Institute of Museums (IBRAM) and the National Foundation for the Arts (FUNARTE), from regulatory agencies to investment agencies, giving them "the flexibility of a private company with the duty to have the public interest in mind in everything that they do." ANCINE manages the crucial Audiovisual Sector Fund (FSA), which invests money collected from taxes on the industry back into the audiovisual sector to the tune of $415 million in 2018. Rumors have surfaced that the new government could do away with the FSA or try to divert the funds for other uses. Sa Leitao says he doesn't consider this likely as it would require a change to the law. "This money is not government money, it's money that the government takes and uses for this purpose," says Walkiria Barbosa, co-executive director of the Rio Film Festival and head of production company Total Entertainment. "The FSA money comes from taxes that the industry pays." She also points to other funding sources the industry relies on, including tax incentives for private companies to invest in entertainment content, and a rising interest in product placements as Brazilian content travels further abroad, especially on international streaming services like Netflix and Amazon. "I think it's a very rich moment to discuss new ideas," she says. "It is going to be equally interesting to see which of the new governors is happy to support culture, as both mayors and governors have larger budgets that can make as much difference as what the federal government is doing," adds Chris Pickard of international consultancy firm Critical Divide, which works extensively in Brazil, including with the Rio Film Festival and the Rio Film Commission. "It will be uncertain times for people that produce culture in Brazil and need government funding." Freedoms at Risk? Outside of financing, there are also rising concerns about content in what could be a very restrictive new environment. Just days before the final election, Caetano Veloso, the renowned Brazilian musician whose work has graced hundreds of film and TV soundtracks, published an op-ed in the New York Times warning, "If Mr. Bolsonaro wins the election, Brazilians can expect a wave of fear and hatred." He continued that "Mr. Bolsonaro has repeatedly defended the military dictatorship of the 1960s and '70s," a time when "the military junta imprisoned and arrested many artists and intellectuals for their political beliefs," including Veloso himself. The fear of a return to such times seems to be bubbling under the surface for many artists and journalists in Brazil. "The first step against independent cinema is to reduce the resources destined to them," says director Laboissiere. "And the few resources will hardly go to LGBTQI narratives, or narratives of black and indigenous people." "They do not know exactly what they are going to do, but culture and art are something that they really want to extinguish in this country, since culture and art always point to a diversity and plurality of ideas." "Jair Bolsonaro has been extremely explicit about his absolute disregard for democracy and human rights and has repeatedly promised supporters that his government will repress and commit acts of violence against political opponents," says The Intercept's Fishman. "The fear is very real." Concludes Fishman: "The question is what will come to pass." The Brazilian Association of Investigative Journalism has tallied more than 150 cases of journalists being physically, verbally or digitally threatened or attacked in the context of the election. Like Donald Trump, Bolsonaro also gives preference to friendly media outlets, excludes others, and employs social media like Facebook Live videos to speak directly to his people. He has used the term "Fake News" in tweets, in English. "We are concerned," admits RT Features' Rodrigo Teixeira, producer of dozens of local and international films, including Call Me by Your Name. "Free speech must be a priority to any government." "I'm an optimist and a realist at the same time," adds Rio Film Festival's Barbosa, who says her first husband spent three years as a political prisoner under the military dictatorship, which lasted from 1964 to 1985 and is still fresh in many Brazilians' memories. "It was very different. At that time, people in Brazil didn't have information about the dictatorship." Now, she says: "Everyone has information, and when we have information we have power." Until the government's plans for the industry take formal shape, says Sara Silveira, the veteran producer behind last year's Locarno Special Jury Prize-winner Good Manners, "let's believe and hope for the best, that we can carry on in harmony and peace, with our guaranteed freedom and democracy." Impact on Hollywood Hollywood and others interested in co-producing with or shooting in Brazil will be watching closely to see what direction the industry, and the country, will take under the new administration. As will distributors: In 2015, Brazil was the eighth-biggest film market in the world. Supporters suggest structural reforms could pull Brazil further out of its economic crisis and make it a more attractive investment location. But political instability and reports of crackdowns on political opponents and the press could scare people away. Brazil currently has co-production treaties signed with 12 countries, mostly Latin America and European, but also including Canada and the U.K., and is one of 15 signatory countries on the Latin American Film Co-Production Treaty. So far, Teixeira says local producers are hoping for the best: "Considering that we have a very committed and talented artistic community in Brazil, I believe international companies will keep their interest in the Brazilian marketplace."

The Delhi High Court has put on hold the rustication of a JNU student who had accused a hostel warden of sexual harassment, saying the university did not follow the prescribed procedure while taking the decision.
Justice Sanjeev Sachdeva stayed the May 30 decision of Jawaharlal Nehru University to rusticate the female student for one semester saying the varsity did not provide sufficient time to her to respond to the show cause notice and order appeared to have been passed without carrying out an inquiry.
The court also issued notice to the university and sought its response on the plea of the student, who was rusticated for one semester on the basis of a report of a Gender Sensitization Committee against Sexual Harassment (GSCASH) which had held that the girl had made a false complaint against the warden.
"Prima facie, I am satisfied that the respondent No.1 (JNU) has not complied with the provisions of the rules and procedures prescribed. The show-cause notice dated May 20, 2016 appears to have been served on the petitioner (student) on May 27 which did not provide sufficient time to her to respond to the said show-cause notice.
"Consequent to the show-cause notice, prima facie, there does not appear to have an inquiry conducted and the impugned order has been passed. In view of the above, issue notice.
Renotify on August 23. In the meantime, the order dated May 30 shall remain stayed," the court said.
The student, in her plea, had contended that procedure as prescribed under the Rules and Procedures of the GSCASH has not been followed, as even the time required for filing an appeal was not provided to her since the show cause notice of May 20 was given to her on May 27.
She has also contended that even without awaiting her response, the rustication order was passed.
The student further alleged that even the report of the committee was not given to her.
The committee had carried out an enquiry pursuant to the girl lodging a complaint against the warden at Vasant Kunj police station on November 22, last year. A FIR was registered pursuant to her complaint.
The GSCASH had exonerated the warden and recommended the student's rustication for defaming him.

Parents of students enrolled in Education Support are eligible to apply for their children to remain at school until the end of the year they turn 18, as long as the child would benefit from another year of education.
Some students may already have repeated a year when they were in primary school and so may be turning 17 in Year 11. Others will be turning 17 in Year 12. In both cases permission has to be requested from the Department for them to remain at school for another year (i.e. the year they will turn 18).
If you wish the Principal to apply for this additional year for your child, you must advise the Centre by the start of Term 3 so that the application can be made.
Where do children with intellectual or physical disabilities go to school in Western Australia?
In WA, all children are eligible to go to mainstream Primary and Secondary schools.
Children with intellectual or physical disability are valued just like everyone else and are welcome to attend their local schools. Schools will make special allowances for students with special needs and are often able to obtain extra funding for teacher and education assistant time, changing the school environment such as adding ramps and so on. Having a physical or intellectual disability is not a barrier to attending the local school. There may be times, however, when a student with an intellectual disability is not happy in a mainstream school and could benefit from being somewhere which provides smaller class size, fewer peers, a highly differentiated curriculum or a more sensory curriculum, a higher level of intervention from adults and so on. If parents feel that their child would be better in a different environment, they should approach their local primary or high school and discuss their options with the Principal. The student would then need to be assessed to see whether they meet the eligibility guidelines fall into the category of intellectual disability which would make them eligible for an Education Support Centre or school.
An Education Support Centre is a separate school located on a primary school or high school campus. An education support school runs from Kindergarten to Year 12 and is generally not as coordinated with a primary school or high school and takes children with the highest needs, sometimes with severe medical/physical issues as well as intellectual disability. These students may have a major focus on a sensory curriculum. If you want to search for education support centres or schools, go to schools online and enter the search 'ed sup' and all the education support centres will come up.
Where does West Coast Secondary Education Support Centre take students from?
We have a wider "catchment area" than for a mainstream high school. Generally students attend the Centre which is closest to where they live.
Transport for Students
If a child comes to us and we are their nearest Education Support Centre, they are eligible to apply for a place on the special buses run by Transperth, which is quite useful for many parents. These buses have an additional adult on them to help the students and the buses go from door to door. If a student is enrolled whose residence is outside of the bus zone, then the parents are responsible for providing transport. For more information go to http://www.schoolbuses.wa.gov.au
Who can come to an Education Support Centre in Western Australia?
To be eligible to come to an Education Support Centre, a child must have :
• An intellectual disability usually diagnosed by a psychologist who assesses cognitive functioning (usually through the administration of an appropriate IQ Test), adaptive functioning & developmental / background history.
• In some cases children with high needs autism, physical disability or diagnosed mental health issues may be able to enrol.
Eligibility is assessed by the Regional Education Support Consultant or RESC (currently Melissa Morgan, email: firstname.lastname@example.com who is also the WCSESC School Psychologist) as appointed by the Regional Education Office (phone 9285 3600). To help determine eligibility a full psychologist's report is useful. A letter from Disability Services Commission verifying intellectual disability may also be useful.
Who pays for extra teacher and education assistant time? Do they have to go to an Education Support Centre to get this help?
Funding for students with disabilities of various kinds comes to a school through Schools Resourcing, a section of the Department of Education. A student will receive Schools Resourcing funding to pay for teacher and / or education assistant time based on their needs. They will get this funding largely independent of the school they attend. There may be additional fees for 457 visa holders. For more information about Schools Resourcing, go to:
How do I enrol my child to come to an Education Support Centre?
To enrol your child in an Education Support Centre it is recommended that the parents make an appointment to visit and meet the Principal. Information is required from parents and the school at which your child is currently enrolled. Parents complete an enrolment form which confirms that they understand that they have made a choice to move their child into education support. The enrolment forms have to be countersigned by the RESC who verifies that the student meets education support eligibility criteria.

"There are many avenues when it comes to marketing your products," said David Spainhour, owner of Midco Demolition Tools in Dallas, TX. "We have tried multiple mediums and have settled with two that are proving to be very effective."
According to Spainhour, one of those mediums is static and the other is anything but static. In 2004, Midco decided to enhance its efforts with the sponsorship of a Pro Modified dragster.
Spainhour said that he and his son, Chris, who represents Solida demolition tools, joined together on the drag racing sponsorship.
"Chris and I have both tried our hand at driving dragsters in the past and we know that many people in the construction industry follow the sport with a passion," Spainhour noted.
Statistics show that aside from the thousands that frequent the actual races, there are multiple thousands that see the signage on the transport vehicle and the trailer when the dragster is en route.
Spainhour has owned four dragsters over the past 20 years and knows the sport and the audience very well. "Aside from the fact that we know we are reaching a target market, it's quite a thrill to see your sponsorship signs go by at nearly 200 mph," stated Spainhour.
Midco chose to sponsor Thomas Myers Racing, a small team located in Granbury, TX. Spainhour said that the group looked like it had great potential with its 2000 Chevy S10 Pro Mod and Midco received the edge it needed from the sponsorship.
The truck is highly modified, boasting a 707-cu.-in. nitrous oxide burning engine and a body that looks like what an S10 may resemble in the future. It has been timed at 167 mph in the one-eighth mi. run, which means you have to look quick to see that signage.
The main marketing aspect of the sponsorship is in the "en-route" viewing — more than 12,000 miles and 200 hours on major highway travel between events.
According to Spainhour, one of the most appealing reasons for the sponsorship is that the fans are free to interact with the teams on a first-hand basis in the pits. They can see the dragster up close, meet the crew and talk with the driver to get an in-depth understanding of drag racing.
"Chris and I take customers to the races and basically make a party of the event," he said.
In the near future, Midco plans to take the dragster to tradeshows as a draw factor for its display.
According to Spainhour, hammers and chisels are not all that much of an attraction, but the dragster should really bring people to see its products. He added that they are very proud to participate in the Texas Outlaw Pro Modified Association in addition to benefiting from the publicity derived from the sponsorship.
"We look forward to a long successful association with our Pro Mod dragster," Spainhour said.

Browsing through the appendix of Colin Moock's excellent ASDG2 I noticed a new command addRequestHeader() that was added with the release of the Flash Player 18.104.22.168. As Macromedia only mentioned this once in their release notes, it looks like this command has already been forgotten again. At least I get that impression looking at those 5 results Google returns me: here, here or here.
So as a little reminder and for further reference here's what addRequestHeader is good for, right from the source:
Customization of HTTP headers
The XML and LoadVars objects can both generate POST actions. Each of these classes have new methods to allow authors to specify custom values for HTTP headers for the POST action: addRequestHeader (<header name>, <header value>), and addRequestHeader (<headers>). In the first case, multiple calls are supported. If multiple calls are made to set the same header name, each successive value will replace the value set in the previous call. In the second case, <headers> is an array of strings, alternating header names and header values. The array will be parsed out as if it were a series of calls to the simpler form of the method, and the same rules will be applied to multiple uses of a header name.
myXML.addRequestHeader("SOAPAction", "\"Foo\"");
var headers = ["Content-Type", "text/plain", "X-ClientAppVersion", "2.0"];

Cult heroes; every club has players from the past who particularly stand out and are remembered for many reasons. A cult hero is admired by a relatively small audience, but remains influential all the same. Here at Shoot! we want to give these players the appreciation they deserve.
So today, on his 31st birthday, we're taking a look back at former Newcastle United and Liverpool defender Jose Enrique – who is classed as a cult hero for both clubs!
The left-back first appeared in English football after agreeing a move to St James' Park back in August 2007, joining The Magpies for a reported £6.3m from Spanish outfit Villarreal.
Having fended off reported interest from Premier League rivals Liverpool and Manchester City for the Spaniard's signature, Newcastle fans took to the left-back given his blistering pace, pinpoint passing accuracy and love for tough tackles.
However, Enrique struggled to adapt to the English top-flight at first, despite making 28 appearances in all competitions under then-manager Sam Allardyce.
But, it only got worse for the defender the following term, as the club lost their Premier League status, suffering relegation to the Championship after finishing 18th in the table, one point adrift of survival.
Newcastle lost the likes of Michael Owen, Obafemi Martins, Sebastien Bassong, Habib Beye and Damien Duff during the summer, and despite an impressive individual campaign for the relegated Magpie, which fuelled transfer speculation, Enrique stuck by The Magpies and vowed to get them back into the Premier League.
In an interview with The Journal in December 2009, the former Spain Under-21 international was questioned about a potential move to rivals Sunderland.
Enrique replied, "I don't care about Sunderland. I worry for my team – I love the city, I love the club, and I don't care about signing for another team."
No wonder Newcastle fans loved Enrique!
The 2009-10 season was by far his most successful at St James' – scoring his first goal for the club against Nottingham Forest, playing 37 times in all competitions, helping Newcastle claim the Championship title, surpass 100 league points for the first time in The Magpies' history, was named the club's Player of the Season and was included in the PFA Championship Team of the Year, alongside team-mates Fabricio Coloccini, Kevin Nolan and Andy Carroll.
Again; clubs were interested in snapping up the Spaniard upon his return to the top-flight, but Enrique showed loyalty once again to stay at St James' and appear in 36 of their 38 Premier League fixtures in 2010-11, helping Alan Pardew's men finish 12th in the league standings – seven points above the bottom three.
However, the left-back's brilliance became all too hot to handle for The Magpies in August 2011, as Premier League rivals Liverpool agreed a £7m deal for Enrique.
He made his Reds debut on the first day of the 2011-12 campaign, starting at left-back during their 1-1 draw against Sunderland, in what proved to be an eventful debut term for the Anfield outfit.
On October 1, the Spaniard starred in his first Merseyside derby, setting up ex-Newcastle team-mate Andy Carroll to seal a 2-0 victory against Everton at Goodison Park.
The very next day, the former Valencia and Villarreal star was named the best summer signing by Liverpool fans, with a huge 74.5 per cent of votes, ahead of the likes of Jordan Henderson, Stewart Downing and Charlie Adam.
Come February 2012, Enrique played a part in earning Liverpool their last piece of silverware to date – the League Cup – defeating Championship club Cardiff City 5-4 on penalties (2-2 – A.E.T), playing the full 90 minutes and extra-time at left-back.
Then on April 1, 2012, Enrique returned to St James' Park for the first time since leaving The Magpies for The Reds.
Despite being on the losing side (2-0), the defender hit the headlines after being forced to play as the visitors' goalkeeper after Pepe Reina was sent off for headbutting James Perch.
For the final 13 minutes, Enrique kept a clean sheet. So, he was not just handy with his wicked left foot, but also his hands!
At the opposite end of the pitch, the ex-Newcastle man had to wait until mid-November 2012 to net his first goal for Liverpool, scoring in a comfortable 3-0 home win over Wigan Athletic after being deployed on the left-hand side of midfield under manager Brendan Rodgers.
He finished the 2012-13 campaign with two goals and 35 games under his belt, though Liverpool could only finish seventh in the Premier League, two points behind rivals Everton.
As of the 2013-14 term, injuries started to take its toll on the Spaniard. He managed just over 600 minutes of league action for The Reds, as Rodgers' men went agonisingly close to lifting the Premier League title, only to be pipped by Manchester City at the death.
Four league games followed for the left-back in 2014-15, before he failed to make a single Premier League appearance in 2015-16, with severe knee injuries, plus calf and hamstring problems, hindering his Anfield career significantly. Enrique was becoming a forgotten full-back.
Come May 2016, boss Jurgen Klopp made the call to release the Spaniard, after almost 100 appearances in all competitions for Liverpool, including 10 assists and two goals.
Since his Anfield exit; Enrique joined La Liga 2 side Real Zaragoza on a two-year deal back in September, where he has scored one goal in 12 league games.
Enrique will be remembered as a cult hero by Newcastle United fans for his fiery passion, dominant performances at full-back and pride of guiding the club back into the Premier League.
Meanwhile; he is also recognised as a cult hero on Merseyside, though fans will ponder upon what could have been for the Spaniard at Anfield, as injuries ultimately damaged his Liverpool career.
Nevertheless, Reds fans adored his personality, character and commitment to the cause, with the defender always pictured with a smile on his face, even during the dark days of being restricted to the treatment room for months on end.
Both sets of fans wish nothing but the best for Jose Enrique going forward.

No tin-foil hats required
David Work with his support for conspiracy theories would do well in Donald Trump's administration. Wind turbines cause cancer, don't you know.
There some topics that interest me more then others. I like to cruise the different Black Press community papers to see what other people are saying about climate change, those supporting science over anti-vaxxers, for another. I am especially bemused by people who keep flogging their climate denying conspiracy theories which have ALL been debunked by credible climate scientists.
But I am not going to take anyone seriously when they start defending conspiracy theories without offering any proof. Otherwise, conspiracy theories are just hot air, rumours, supported by other online trolls quoting each other, and in some cases, paid hacks by the fossil fuel lobby.
I think we should always fact check anything that is put out there by government, groups, or individuals. But for goodness sake, use critical thinking and fact-based evidence and not personal gut feelings that the world is out to get us.
I'll use the bankruptcy of Purdue, owned by the Statler family, as proof that the system does work despite the opposition of Big Pharma and pro-business lobby groups. It took too long because of the support that the Republicans gave that glorified drug dealer company. It didn't need conspiracy theories to bring down that company, it took fact-based evidence. No tin-foil hats required.

More than 3,000 ULI full members are expected in Nashville, April 16–18, to attend the 2019 ULI Spring Meeting. Music City was ranked fifth among markets to watch in Emerging Trends in Real Estate© 2019. The meeting is also open to all ULI members residing in Tennessee; other associate members can upgrade to full membership to attend.
The meeting host committee includes Bert Matthews, chief manager, the Matthews Company; Kim Hawkins, principal, Hawkins Partners; Jimmy Granbery, chairman and chief executive officer, H.G. Hill Realty Company; and Mark Deutschmann, CEO, Village Real Estate and Core Development.
Nashville will soon be home to an East Coast operations hub for Amazon, bringing an expected 5,000 workers to the fast-growing city. The region already is home to the headquarters of Bridgestone America and Hospital Corporation of America (HCA), both of which will be highlighted on a sold-out morning tour titled "Art of the Big Deal" on April 16.
Other tours include:
Historic Franklin, Tennessee: Where Preservation Profits . . . Big Time! With its historic district recognized in 1995 as a "Great American Main Street," the city of Franklin attracted a record 1.5 million visitors in 2017, generating an annual economic impact of $427 million from tourism and hosting more than 50 major events. This tour will include the 1942 art deco jail transformed into a center for historic preservation, and the Franklin Theatre, an intimate venue that has featured shows by musicians ranging from Sheryl Crow to Art Garfunkel to Keb' Mo'. Explore Franklin's newest developments, learn how the city balances success with challenges such as affordability and parking, and discuss how the city's land use policy has worked to maintain the historic charm while encouraging sustainable growth and creative development. The tour departs from the Music City Center at 8 a.m. on April 16.
A Tale of Three Universities: Neighborhood Campuses. This tour will explore how Vanderbilt, Belmont, and Lipscomb universities have been transformed during the past decade through broad expansion of their campus buildings and land. With each university offering new models of on-campus housing as well as additional schools/programs, participants will see how the use of institutional overlays can assist with rapid university growth within the distinctive characteristics of the historic neighborhood fabric of 12South, Hillsboro Village, and Belmont Boulevard. They will also see how student integration into the neighborhood can foster adjacent private development, off-campus housing, and vibrant retail centers. The tour departs from the Music City Center at 9 a.m. on April 16.
From Farm-to-Table to Building Healthy Developments across the Region. Although Nashville is renowned as a music mecca and tourist destination, its largest industry is health care. Nashville is home to more than 300 health care companies, including Hospital Corporation of America, the world's largest private operator of hospitals, contributing tens of billions of dollars and hundreds of thousands of jobs to the economy. Likewise, Nashville continues to expand ways for people to live healthier lives. This tour will showcase healthy places across the region, including oneC1TY, a transformative urban healthy place with health-focused tenants, plant-based dining, and many distinctive sustainable design features. The tour will visit a dead mall remade as a mixed-use project by Vanderbilt University Health, as well as two healthy-lifestyle new neighborhoods. Participants will enjoy a meal at AVO, a 'locally-sourced plant based eatery' serving delicious at meals at oneC1TY. The tour departs from the Music City Center at 8:30 a.m. on April 16.
Welcome to the Makerhood: Equity, Urban Manufacturing, and Nashville's Vibrant Maker Economy. Nashville's urban manufacturing and "maker" economy reaches far beyond music. Emerging creative pursuits coupled with 21st-century entrepreneurship are reinventing industrial buildings, energizing districts, and driving an urban manufacturing sector in the city. With an understanding of the importance of equitable access and jobs, urban manufacturing is producing goods reflecting the city's creative class, including fashion, videography, design, the culinary arts, and, yes, music-related manufacturing. Stops on this tour will represent this diversity in Nashville's maker economy. Among others, participants will view experimental art produced at Oz Arts, see vinyl record pressing at North America's largest press, and learn about the philosophy driving Able in its pursuit of using fashion and jewelry manufacturing to reduce the generational poverty that is often a consequence of typical maker industry practices. Come see what happens when Nashville's urban makers, creative class, and manufacturing intersect with real estate and the built environment to realize inventiveness, originality, and commerce. The tour departs from the Music City Center at 10 a.m. on April 16.
Nashville's Legacy in the Civil Rights Movement: Healing Cities. During the 1950s and 1960s, the civil rights movement in Nashville was in constant flow as thousands of its African American residents sparked a nonviolent challenge to racial segregation in the city and across the South. In September 1957, Nashville took the first steps toward ending segregation and discrimination in its public schools. In February 1960, students from the city's four acclaimed black colleges set out to confront segregation at lunch counters, movie theaters, and other places of public accommodation. This tour visiting landmarks and historically significant neighborhoods will examine Nashville's important role in the civil rights movement; the imprint it left on the city, equity, and opportunity issues; and how this important legacy affects real estate and culture. It will conclude with a meal at the infamous Woolworth's lunch counter—recently restored, "honing the history of the space, while also giving it a new story as a welcome table for all." The tour departs from the Music City Center at 9 a.m. on April 16.
The complete schedule of tours is available at spring.uli.org/schedule. Separate tickets are needed for each tour, and availability may be limited.

The Republican efforts to get Hillary Clinton when they controlled Congress has backfired and will hurt Trump's effort to bury the Mueller report.
Republicans will pay the price for their Clinton email investigation
Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.), a member of the Judiciary Committee, said Republicans' efforts over the last two years to force the public release of elements of the Russia probe — as well as the investigation of Hillary Clinton's email server — had armed Democrats with an argument to require significant disclosure of the Mueller findings.
"Republicans have really shot themselves in the foot with what they approved," Jayapal said. "They really undermined any argument Barr might want to make that there's longstanding precedent."
House Intelligence Committee chairman Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) made a similar argument on Friday night to Rachel Maddow, "In the last Congress, Rachel, the Justice Department provided over 880,000 pages of discovery of evidence to the Republican Congress in the answer to subpoenas that in an investigation that the Clinton e-mail investigation in which no one was indicted. Information about Hillary Clinton, about Bruce Orr and Andy Mccabe and Lisa Page and Peter Strzok. For the department to maintain they never provide information in cases that doesn't result in an indictment is simply not true and 880,000 pages demonstrate that."
Republicans screwed themselves when they went after Clinton's emails. The bogus Hillary Clinton email investigation is laying the groundwork for the DOJ to be forced to release the Meuller report. Because Republicans got the DOJ to release so much evidentiary material, it will be impossible for Barr to argue in court that the Mueller report must remain classified.
It is a bit of poetic justice that the House Republican abuse of power in the Clinton email investigation is about to come back to haunt them and provide the ammo needed to get the Mueller report released.
Republicans can thank Paul Ryan, Devin Nunes, and the rest of the Republican House when Mueller's report is made public, and voters get to see his findings about Trump.

Over the years, I've been interviewed hundreds of times by numerous people who want to help their readers (mostly nurses) learn more about how to stop workplace bullying.
If you're reading this, it's likely that addressing disruptive behavior is important to you too! With this in mind I'd like to share some of those questions (and my subsequent answers, of course) with you today.
Remember, workplace bullying happens because it can and it takes all of us to fix it. We can do so by speaking up, stepping up, and standing up for respect, kindness, and professionalism.
When I worked as a nurse executive, I spent a lot of time talking with nurses about how students and new nurses are supported. Many of the nurses I talked with shared horror stories of how they were treated by the other experienced nurses when they were students or when they were new. They shared stories about being eaten alive by the more experienced nurses and how they were treated like gum on someone's shoe. Their stories reminded me of my own experiences of being bullied when I was a new nurse AND any time I changed roles as an experienced nurse. At one point, I caught myself saying, "Well, that's just the way it is in nursing."
Yes. I actually said that. But when I did, I had an out of body experience. I heard myself saying those dreadful words and in the moment, decided enough was enough. WHY oh why do we accept nurses eating each other as the norm?
[easy-tweet tweet="Workplace bullying happens because it can and it takes all of us to fix it. Speak up, step up, & stand up!"]
That experience led me down the path to learn more about nurse-to-nurse bullying. What I found was that there was a lot of literature about what bullying looked like and why it occurred. However, there wasn't a lot about how to stop it. That's when I decided to go down the "rabbit hole" and get more involved in working with individuals and organizations to eliminate workplace bullying.
Workplace bullying takes place because it can. First, we accept certain behaviors as the norm and fail to recognize inappropriate, bad behavior. We say things like, "That's just the way it is" or, "Well, that's just how SHE is. Don't take it personal."
Second, when employees are bullied, they don't speak up. 40% of all targets don't tell anyone they are being bullied. This silence occurs typically because of the fear of retaliation. Targets are afraid that if they speak up, the bully will find out and retaliate against them.
Third, leaders use silence as a strategy too. Nobody teaches them how to address the bad behavior of their employees. This is a huge problem, seeing as 85% of a manager's time is spent dealing with the behaviors of their employees! So, the cycle of workplace bullying continues.
First, not everything is bullying and we do a disservice to nurses when we label all bad behavior as bullying. Even though I've written about this, talked about this, and created a few videos about this, I'm not confident people truly understand the difference between bullying and incivility. Keep in mind; both bullying and incivility are NOT okay. Both need to be addressed, but it's important to understand the differences because the strategies to eliminate them are different.
For a behavior to be considered bullying, it has to include 3 things:
1. A Target
There HAS to be a target. This target can be a single person or group of people. For example, someone might make one new nurses life a living hell, but they're nice to everyone else. Group targets can include the opposite shift (day nurse hates all night nurses), new nurses, or nurses who have a particular ethnic background.
2. Harmful
The behavior has to be harmful in some way. This harm can be to the target (I get diarrhea every time I see that I have to work with this person). Or harmful to a patient (a nurse who sets a nurse up for failure, affecting patient care).
3. Repeated
I do believe this is the most important element of bullying. The behavior can't be just a one-time event (I scream at you during a code situation). The harmful behavior has to be repeated over time. Some experts say 6 months or more. I disagree. I would consider a behavior as bullying if it is repeated several times over the course of a week or so.
Both. Some people who bully love an audience. They like to yell, criticize, or treat someone in a condescending manner in front of others. We tend to refer to these behaviors as overt. However, there are a lot of covert bullies too. These bullies either only treat people poorly behind closed doors or they're nice to your face but are quick to stab you in the back when you turn around!
Bullying is destructive, pervasive, and exists in every industry. However, there is a high prevalence of bullying in the nursing profession for several reasons. One reason is that we are a female dominated profession and women aren't always that nice to each other. Another reason is because of the high stress environment nurses work in. When stressed, nurses tend to lash out at each other. A third reason is because of a general feeling of oppression. Nurses can't say no to patient care and therefore, feel as though they don't have a voice or control over their work. This also leads to high stress. In general, nurses aren't taught good coping mechanisms and may resort to releasing stress and frustration in non-healthy ways.
Many times, new nurses and physicians face a hierarchy and may go through a bit of hazing by the experienced person. They may be treated poorly, given the worst assignments, or simply set up to fail. There tends to be a perceived power gradient with senior physicians and nurses who then use that perceived power to squash others.
We know that individuals pay the price for bullying with their physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health. Organizations pay the price for bullying with their profits. Globally, organizations lose over $6 billion dollars per year due to bullying (in all industries). Ultimately, patients pay the price for bullying with their outcomes. Studies show that organizations with a high prevalence of bullying have worse patient outcomes.
I read a statistic once that said if a unit has more than a 10% turnover rate – bullying is a problem on that unit. Nurses stay or leave for two reasons:
- The relationship they have with their boss.
- Whether or not they feel that they fit in.
Bullying destroys both.
I first recommend getting very clear about the behavior and how it is impacting the work. So many people complain that someone is "bullying" them, but it's very difficult to address "bullying". Getting clear on the behavior ("Jared called me an idiot in front of patients") can provide the opportunity to address specific behavior. Second, I recommend starting a documentation trail of bullying behavior.
Dates, times, locations, incidents, witnesses, etc. Any time you can include verbatim comments, be sure to do so. And always link a bad behavior to a patient safety concern or strategic goal violation. Third, confront. I write a lot about confronting techniques in my book and my other various anti-bullying programs. There are simple ways to confront and more complex ways. The key is to stop using silence as a strategy!
Of course! Bullying is a human issue. If you have humans working in your organization, then you have the potential for a bullying problem. I specifically work with healthcare organizations and academic institutes to stop the cycle of bullying. However, the same principles apply to any industry.
When organizations ignore workplace bullying, they have high turnover rates, added costs, and ultimately, their patients will have worse outcomes. There is a movement right now to make bullying illegal in the workplace and some organizations are actually being sued if they don't take action against complaints of bullying.
Yes! First, an organization has to set behavioral expectations immediately upon hire. Asking employees to sign a code of conduct or read the policy on behavior isn't enough. Leaders have to engage in conversations about bullying versus professional behaviors with their employees.
Second, you have to provide skill development for your front-line managers to teach them how to hold their employees accountable for behaviors.
Third, the organization has to provide the resources employees need to create professional workplaces. This consists of ongoing training and education, robust policies that address workplace bullying, and a surveillance system to monitor behaviors.
Fourth, leaders need to hold EVERYONE accountable for professional behavior – even themselves.
[easy-tweet tweet="Follow these 4 steps to prevent #bullying behavior before it's a problem! #leadership"]
We are hemorrhaging really good nurses due to workplace bullying and incivility. That's why I've devoted my career to this work. Through my online programs, consulting, products, and seminars, I am doing my part to stop the cycle of bullying in healthcare!
If your organization is one of the many in dire need of help with an ever-expanding workplace bullying problem please take the time to see how I can help. It's never too late to do the right thing!
Be kind. Take care. Stay connected.
Helping you cultivate a healthy happy workforce,

Stunning pictures show Great Yarmouth Racecourse down the years
PUBLISHED: 12:14 17 November 2019 | UPDATED: 12:14 17 November 2019
For more than three centuries, racegoers have flocked to Great Yarmouth in their droves.
The town's racing heritage is believed to date back to 1715, with the original racecourse near to the Nelson's Monument at South Denes.
With the development of the railways, and under mounting pressure from the town's growing fishing industry, the racecourse opened its current North Denes site in 1920.
The racecourse is one of only a few in England to feature a straight mile.
Racing at the venue has ended for the remainer of 2019, bringing the curtain down on 23 thrilling fixtures, with the first meeting of 2020 set for Tuesday, April 21.
With further meetings scheduled monthly until the season finale in October, the racecourse is set to welcome thousands to the town once again next year.
One of the highlights of the racing calendar remains the September Eastern Festival.

The Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority (MARTA) is the main public transport system in the city of Atlanta and includes both rail lines and buses. Demand for MARTA buses is at an all time high—making it time to update the bus "mobility stations" throughout the city.
Salas O'Brien's Atlanta office recently completed both the engineering design and the LEED fundamental commissioning for the Brady Mobility Facility.
Our design services included new construction to the bus maintenance facility, operations offices, administration offices, and fueling/cleaning/washing building. Our LEED fundamental commissioning services included HVAC systems and electrical systems (lighting controls and emergency power generator).
Due to the exceptional design and commissioning services provided by Salas O'Brien, the MARTA mobility station on Brady Avenue was awarded LEED Silver Certification. The station is now able to handle the growing demands of Atlanta's population.

Very exciting *lol* It's the first time I've read it on paper and the difference is surprisingly huge. So what's so different? Now it actually 'feels' like a book and it's easier to read (no I don't own an IPad or Kindle). I can read it anywhere without needing to lug around my battered Toshiba (which, while top of the range in 2002 is now considered archaic – and heavy).

All About Spike - Print Version
[Back to Main Site]
[Back to Story Page]
Pain is Prologue
"Shut up."
Spike smirks, making Angel's heart twist in his chest. "That the best you can come up with?"
"Well, since the best I can come up with ends with you being a little pile of dust, I kinda think you might want me to stick with 'Shut up.'"
It's the silence that follows that tells Angel exactly what's going on here.
Spike is standing over by the window, leaning against the frame with one shoulder. Angel knows from countless hours of personal experience that there's really nothing to see out there, but it's not that Spike's looking at scenery. His posture gives him away. Shoulders slumped, not in a casual, I-don't-give-a-fuck sort of way, but in something closer to defeat.
Angel gets up from his chair and saunters over, his own attempt at casual. Stands close enough to Spike that the edge of his worn duster brushes against Angel's pant leg.
When Spike turns his head to look at him, Angel punches him in the face.
It's so hard, and obviously unexpected, that Spike's head flies back and cracks against the window frame. His hands immediately come up to cradle -- and then straighten, with a satisfying *crunch* -- his broken nose, but he also has enough sense to back away. "What the *fuck* was that?" he asks, his voice muffled behind his hands.
"That," Angel says, opening and then re-clenching his fist, examining knuckles that feel split but aren't, "is what you need."
"I always knew you were a sick bastard, Angel, but this really takes the cake." Spike drops his hands and shakes his head. Little droplets of blood patter onto the floor, the sound of it so soft that a human wouldn't be able to hear them.
There's almost no blood on Spike's face though. Angel's surprised and, disturbingly, disappointed, but pushes the thought away.
"How exactly is having you haul off and punch me in the face what I need?" The glower, the sheer stubborn tension that is Spike, makes Angel hard.
Angel takes a step closer, not aiming for casual now because he and Spike know that it moved into serious territory more than a minute ago. "You've been thinking of worse," he says.
In response to Angel's move forward, Spike steps back, keeping the distance between them equal. "Haven't been thinking about you beating me up." It's sullen.
"That's not what I meant." Another step forward.
And another step back, the dance between them a hundred years old, and much, much older. "Then come right out and say what you mean, for fuck's sake," Spike says, even though the challenge in his voice can't quite cover up the hint of fear Angel can see in his eyes.
Breaking the pattern, Angel takes three steps and grabs Spike by the throat, propelling him backwards and pushing him up against the wall. "Does it burn?" Angel asks, as Spike struggles in his grip, but as soon as he speaks the words Spike stops. Is still. "Or is it cold?"
Spike stares at him, eyes wide. "I don't know what you're talking about."
"Bullshit." Angel lets a little grin slip onto his face; Angelus coming out to play. "It's like a fire. Burns everything it touches. Sometimes cold, sometimes hot. Feels like it's turning you to ash inside, doesn't it."
Spike trembles, and when Angel releases his throat, lets his head fall back against the wall, like he doesn't have the strength to keep holding it upright.
"You think I don't know?" Angel moves in so close that they're a hairsbreadth from touching in half a dozen places. His mouth less than an inch from Spike's ear, he purrs, "You want to die, Spike?"
The slump of his shoulders defeat now, Spike closes his eyes. Swallows. Then, slowly, nods. "Yeah." His nose is bruised and slightly swollen, and when he looks at Angel again, his gaze is like an anchor weighing Angel down.
Oh yeah, he knows what that's like.
"Will you do it, Angelus?" Spike sounds like he's lost somewhere inside himself. "I just -- I need it to end now."
It's the right thing to do, and that's the only thing that makes it possible for Angel to turn away, to inject some disgust into his own voice. "No. Jesus Christ, Spike, get over it."
Spike's answering snarl and attack aren't unexpected. Are actually what Angel was hoping for, although the knee in the small of his back as Spike's launch knocks him to the floor wasn't on the list.
He flips over, not using anything close to his full strength, and blocks as many of Spike's punches as he can. It's not all of them though, and Angel can feel his lip split, can taste the blood in his mouth.
On top of him, Spike's more solid than he looks. Right punch that Angel blocks, then a left to his cheekbone. He blocks the next few, and then Spike makes contact with Angel's eye socket. The pain unfolds sharply, like a paper cut, crisp and surprising.
Angel bucks his body and throws Spike to one side, but he only has time to get to his knees before Spike flies at him again, one fist connecting with Angel's rib cage with bruising force. Angel grabs onto Spike's other fist before it can strike him and squeezes. Not hard enough to break bones, but Spike falters for just a second.
"Wanker," Spike gasps, flailing at him again. There's less power behind the blows now, less coordination. The pain's winding down, now that the tension that had been twisting it up is loosening.
"That all you've got?" Angel taunts, shoving Spike over onto the floor.
"You... fucker..." Spike manages to get out, as he comes at Angel again. His fists aren't as clenched, and he's moving even slower now. It's child's play for Angel to catch both of Spike's wrists and stop him.
They're still then, other than Spike's panting and shaking.
"Fucker," Spike says again, but it sounds forced. "Okay, fine. Let me go."
"No." Angel's voice is gentle.
Spike struggles to get away, half-heartedly. "Let me *go.*"
"No." Angel waits until Spike looks at him, then says, "I'm not gonna let you go."
There's a twist of Spike's face that has nothing to do with vampire. He shudders, lets his arms go limp. The soul has brought him here, and Angel's pretty sure it wasn't where Spike intended to end up.
"I know it hurts," Angel says.
"Yeah, well you're the only one," Spike grumbles, still looking at him.
Angel's still holding Spike's wrists, but he lets go of one and uses the other to pull Spike closer. Gets an arm around Spike's waist, and Spike's face settles into the curve of Angel's collarbone as the smaller vampire trembles.
It's not until after-- hours later -- when Spike has left and Angel's alone, that he allows himself to tremble too.

Ovan's little sister. Aina appears as a little girl with blue hair, dressed in elegant, white Gothic Lolita-style clothing, with some minor similarities to Ovan's clothing. According to Piros the 3rd, her character costume doesn't officially exist and she is a cheat character. Aina is a very sweet girl who cares deeply for her brother and her friends. However she can also be very immature, and has the tendency to lash out at other people when upset. Her deepest desire is to be able to live with her brother Ovan in the real world, the same way that she does in "The World".

How to Automatically Categorise Keywords? If you landed on this blog post, then you probably want to know the answers to the following questions: How to automatically categorise keywords using Python and save time? How the suggested solution is different to other keyword categorisation options? There are indeed already solutions available for this task. For example, keyword tagging using Google Sheets or keywords categorisation for the buyers journey using Excel formula.
Pytrends - unofficial API for Google Trends - and trend analysis formula are going to be the topic of this post. First time I heard about the way of calculating search interest using Pytrends and slope formula was when I read Paul Shapiro's post on the same topic. I tried to use the script from his post, but with no success. The reason for this I guess is because there were changes on Google's backend after the script was published.
The following post is an attempt to find a way of analysing competitors' backlinks using Python as the main analysis tool. It was inspired by Will Nye's post How to undertake large-scale competitive link analysis. In his post he gives us an Excel solution for this task, mentioning at the end that "it may be best to use SQL, R or Python." While the suggested solution works perfectly if followed his instructions, I wanted to look for a Python solution, mainly to overcome scalability limitations of Excel.
