Culinary Arts Training
PPSAT is without doubt one of the one hundred twenty five Technical Training and Abilities Development Authority Technology (TESDA) Establishments in the Philippines. Another excuse for the dearth of arts within the classroom writer Victoria Jacobs explains, Given the shrinking budgets of college districts across the nation, artwork specialists and artwork programs have disappeared from many elementary colleges (Jacobs, 1999, p. four). Tremendous arts are being seen as non-instructional or an additional-curricular exercise.
Not solely will you be capable to develop your artistic skills but you will also be capable to develop different abilities that will enable you to later in life. For some, they be taught new cuisines while others even go to culinary schools to excellent their skills and expertise and procure a level in culinary arts.
Social Sciences or humanities is a collection of academic disciplines that pertain to the examine of social lifetime of human groups, particular person and animals. Instructional experts provide clear suggestions for an academic approach that incorporates the humanities.
While affirming the enduring worth of a liberal arts schooling, we should also be aware of the technological and social changes happening round us. We must be conscious of the social, political, and economic wants of our neighborhood, state, nation, and the evolving world society.
It likewise acknowledges high school undergraduates who have prior studying based on expertise and graduates of the Alternative Learning System. The scholars had realized more from this lesson as a result of they were in a position to use all types of learning and have been taught from an angle which is never used, through the humanities.

What we do
Get to Know the Burroughs
The Burroughs is a location in Hendon and part of the London Borough of Barnet. It is in North London, slightly to the west. It is centred around Hendon town hall, on the road of the same name. It has been known as The Burroughs since at least 1316 as it is likely that rabbits were kept here. The local landmarks of the town are the T.H. Watson designed town hall, the local fire station, Hendon Technical Institute, which is part of Middlesex University and Hendon War Memorial. Borough Gardens include a small Moroccan Synagogue too.

SHAH ALAM, Jul 8 – A man who used a Mercedes Benz car in an attempt to wrench an automated teller machine (ATM) from a food court here on Wednesday, panicked and fled the scene when the security alarm was triggered. In the incident about 5.30am, the ATM at the Section 2 Food Court was intact as the man who wore a ski-mask, hurriedly drove away.
Initial police investigations revealed the outer sheet of the ATM was damaged. Shah Alam police chief, ACP Shafien Mamat said the would-be thief had earlier, tied one end of a rope to the ATM machine and the other to the Mercedes Benz parked outside the food court.
"The presence of a crowd at a fast-food restaurant near the food court might have hampered the efforts of the man to drag out the ATM machine, and when the alarm went off, he took to his heels. The police were examining the closed-circuit television camera to track down the suspect, who was believed to be in his 30s," he told reporters after attending a Hari Raya Aidilfitri feast at the Selangor police contingent headquarters here today. — Bernama

The decision of Mr Justice Bean in Dil -v- Commissioner of Police for the Metropolis [2014] EWHC 2184 (QB) relates to a police force's obligations in relation to the disclosure of details of undercover operations and informers. However it also deals with an important aspect of the law of pleadings. A defendant can not, and should not, simply plead a bare "denial". This is one of the rules most often breached.
"One of the most important recommendations made by Lord Woolf in his Access to Justice report in 1996 was that pleadings should not be technical documents, and in particular that "the Defence will set out the defendant's detailed response to the claim and make clear the real issues between the parties"
The difference between a non-admission and denial was brought home in a talk by one of our local circuit judges, several decades ago now. He was not backward in criticising the state of many of the pleadings that came before him.
- Particulars of claim which, in a road traffic accident, gave no clue at all about how the accident occurred, but which were obsessed with identifying the cars (The 3.1, Mark 2, Ford Popular (2nd edition), GTI registration number BC 123G.)
- He was annoyed with incompetent claimant pleading, however most of his ire was placed on defendants who did not know the difference between a non-admission and a denial.
- His view that a a "denial" was often placed in a defence to give an appearance of variety, with no thought to its consequences or because the defendant wanted to make it clear "we really don't like that".
- The difference, however, is of some importance.
One of the express aims of the Woolf reforms was to end the "blanket denial." A defendant could not simply "deny" everything. This is made clear CPR 16.
"16.5 (1) In his defence, the defendant must state –
(a) which of the allegations in the particulars of claim he denies;
(b) which allegations he is unable to admit or deny, but which he requires the claimant to prove; and (c) which allegations he admits.
(2) Where the defendant denies an allegation –
(a) he must state his reasons for doing so; and
(b) if he intends to put forward a different version of events from that given by the claimant, he must state his own version."
In the Dil case the claimants brought a case alleging that the defendant had acted unlawfully in allowing undercover police officers to enter into sexual relationships with environmental campaigners. The defendant denied the allegations but the defence was uninformative.
"The pleaded Defence
The Defence says very little about what the defendant's case would be at a trial. It includes the following:-
"3. As the claimants know, the defendant's policy is neither to confirm nor deny ("NCND") allegations concerning undercover police operations.
4. The purpose of the NCND policy is to protect undercover officers and to uphold the effectiveness of operations and the prevention and detection of crime. The NCND policy must be adhered to if it is to have its intended protective effects.
5. The defendant adopts and applies that policy in relation to the factual allegations made by the claimants in these proceedings.
6. It is neither confirmed nor denied that the individuals mentioned in paragraph 1 of the Particulars of Claim were police officers; that (even if they were police officers) they served with the Metropolitan Police Service; that they were part of the Special Demonstration Squad; that they ever used a false identity; or that they took part in any intimate or sexual relationship with any of the claimants.
7. In any event, it is denied that the defendant is liable for the actions complained of for the further reasons set out below."
The defence then goes on to deal with (or, it might be said, not deal with) the individual cases. In answer to the claims of DIL and Helen Steel there is a detailed plea raising limitation, and in DIL's case an allegation that the defendant is not liable because on her own case DIL continued her relationship with "Jim Sutton" even after he had disclosed his true identity to her in 2001 (a plea which lawyers have traditionally labelledvolenti non fit iniuria). With these exceptions, the pleading in the individual cases is entirely opaque. An example is in the case of RAB, described as the Sixth Claimant, where the Defence reads:-
"15. As set out above, the Sixth Claimant's allegations about "Mark Cassidy" are neither confirmed nor denied.
16. Save as aforesaid, the Sixth Claimant is required to prove the matters set out at 34-45 of the Particulars of Claim.
17. For the reasons set out below it is denied in any event that the Defendant is liable for the torts of deceit, misfeasance, assault/battery or negligence (or at all)."
The Defence goes on to plead that the claimants' allegations "in so far as they relate to the SDS or the alleged actions of alleged undercover officers are neither confirmed nor denied". As to the causes of action relied on by the claimants: it is denied that the acts alleged constituted the tort of deceit; in respect of the claim in assault or battery it is argued that, if the claimants voluntarily engaged in sexual activity with individuals who had lied about their identities and occupations, consent would not as a matter of law have been vitiated by such alleged deception; and in answer to the claim in negligence the existence of a duty of care is disputed.
"29. The allegation that officers of the Defendant expressly authorised or tacitly acquiesced in the formation of the sexual relationships alleged by the Claimants is neither confirmed nor denied.
30. The Claimants are required to prove that officers of the Defendant (a) acted unlawfully and (b) acted with malice, or knew that the unlawful acts (or any of them) would probably injure the Claimants. The Claimants are required to prove, in particular, that:
30.1 officers foresaw that the Claimants would be damaged by a sexual relationship and/or were recklessly indifferent to the risk of such damage.
30.2 officers knew that it was unlawful for undercover officers to enter into intimate sexual relationships with individuals, and/or were recklessly indifferent as to whether it was unlawful for them to do so."
For the claimants Phillippa Kaufmann QC submits that a defendant is only "unable" to confirm or deny the truth of an allegation if he does not know whether it is true or not. I accept that this is by far the most common reason for an inability to plead to an allegation, but I do not consider that the rules should be interpreted in such a literal way. As Ms Carss-Frisk points out, Lord Woolf's original proposal was that a defendant should only be permitted neither to admit nor deny an allegation where the reason was because he did not know whether or not it was true; but that restrictive wording does not appear in CPR 16.5(1).
In any event, there must be cases in which a defendant can properly refuse on policy grounds either to admit or to deny a pleaded allegation the truth of which he knows perfectly well. Suppose an individual is charged with possession of Class A drugs with intent to supply following a police raid on his home. Wishing to know the identity of the informant who told the police about his activities, he brings a civil claim against the police and alleges that the informer is his neighbour across the road. The defendant Chief Constable is able to confirm or deny that allegation but declines to do either, relying on the NCND principle. He would, on those facts, be entitled to do so."
But note the very limited public interest limitation.
"One of the most important recommendations made by Lord Woolf in his Access to Justice report in 1996 was that pleadings should not be technical documents, and in particular that "the Defence will set out the defendant's detailed response to the claim and make clear the real issues between the parties"
The issue in the Dil case was whether the defendant could merely plead a "cannot deny or confirm" defence to the allegations made. The defendant contended that the public interest in protecting the identity of informers meant that he was entitled to plead the action in an "opaque" manner.
"I derive the following guidance from the authorities:
(1) There is a very strong public interest in protecting the anonymity of informers, and similarly of undercover officers (UCOs), and thus of permitting them and their superiors neither to confirm nor deny their status; but it is for the court to balance the public interest in the NCND policy against any other competing public interests which may be applicable (McNally; Mohamed and CF v SSHD).
(2) There is a well-established exception in a criminal trial where revealing the identity of the informer or the UCO is necessary to avoid a miscarriage of justice (Marks v Beyfus; R v Agar): this does not arise in the present case.
(3) Even where an individual informant or UCO has self-disclosed, the police (or the Secretary of State) may nevertheless be permitted to rely on NCND in respect of allegations in the case where to admit or deny them might endanger other people, hamper police investigations, assist criminals, or reveal police operational methods. (Savage; Carnduff).
I will deal first with the general allegation and then with the specific ones. The general allegation is that officers of the MPS, as part of their work as undercover officers and using false identities, engaged in long term intimate sexual relationships with those whose activities the MPS wished to observe; and (although it will no doubt be a matter for legal argument at trial how significant this issue is) that this was authorised or acquiesced in by senior management.
I do not accept that there is now, in 2014, any legitimate public interest entitling the Commissioner to maintain the stance of NCND in respect of this general allegation. The claims relate to alleged activities of officers of the SDS prior to its disbandment in 2008. It is not suggested that the use of long term sexual relationships of this kind as a police tactic is continuing. It is also not argued that it would be appropriate now, nor that (if it did occur) it was appropriate then. The Chief Constable conducting the Operation Herne investigation has expressed in trenchant terms the view that if this did happen it was a "gross abuse": I believe that most people would agree with him. Whether the facts set out by the claimants, if proved, establish one or more of the pleaded causes of action as a matter of law is of course a different issue, and a matter for argument at the trial.
One of the justifications for NCND is that police operational methods should not be revealed. This is in my view clearly intended to apply to operational methods which continue to be in use or are likely to be used in future. Moreover, just as (in the well-known words of Page Wood V-C in Gartside v Outram (1856) 26 L.J.Ch 113) "there is no confidence as to the disclosure of iniquity", so there can be no public policy reason to permit the police neither to confirm nor deny whether an illegitimate or arguably illegitimate operational method has been used as a tactic in the past.
I therefore rule that the defendant cannot rely on NCND to avoid answering the general allegation to which I have referred above..
I turn to the specific allegations that the individual men with whom the Claimants had relationships were undercover officers. All have been publicly named in the media. Some have also self-disclosed; some have been the subject of official confirmation. Self-disclosure is relevant, but it does not have the same significance as official confirmation by the police force concerned, HMIC, a Minister or a court. Mr Creedon, in commenting on the self-disclosure by Peter Francis, declined to confirm or deny whether he had ever been an undercover police officer. He wrote:
"To avoid placing any individual in danger, this [NCND] principle is paramount. To comment either way would raise clear inferences in other cases where no comment can be made. This position is essential to ensure that danger and additional risk can be avoided."
"Jim Sutton" has been publicly named as an UCO by the Commissioner in person. (Commander Martin evidently regards this as a mistake, but he is not the defendant in this claim.) In the two cases involving him, reliance on the NCND policy to avoid admitting that he was an UCO is simply unsustainable.
In the case of "Bob Robinson" I also consider that NCND can no longer be relied on. He has not only self-disclosed (using his real name of Bob Lambert), but has been publicly named by the IPCC as a former MPS officer; and he is no longer in the police service.
However, in the cases of "Mark Cassidy" and "John Barker" I take a different view. Neither of them has self-disclosed nor been officially named as an undercover officer, although each has been named publicly in a variety of media (with a photograph of each man in the Guardian). In those circumstances I consider that the Commissioner should not be required to admit or deny whether either of them is an undercover officer or has the real name alleged. This may only postpone the day of reckoning, in the sense that if the case proceeds and no evidence is adduced to challenge that put forward by RAB and Helen Steel respectively, it appears likely that the respective factual cases put forward by them will be accepted. As I have already noted, the consequences of that in law would be a matter for argument in due course.
In accordance with the procedure envisaged in the order of Tugendhat J, the Commissioner will have 28 days from the handing down of this judgment in which to amend his Defence in order either to admit or deny that: (a) officers of the MPS, as part of their work as undercover officers and using false identities, engaged in long term intimate sexual relationships with those whose activities the MPS wished to observe; (b) this was authorised or acquiesced in by senior management; (c) "Jim Sutton" was such an officer; and (d) "Bob Robinson" was such an officer. The time for disclosure of documents, which was to have expired on the second day of the hearing before me, will be extended until 56 days from the handing down of judgment."
The judge rejected an argument that a failure to fully plead the case should lead to the defence being struck out. Rather, if the defendant failed to plead a fully particularised case within the time specified he was to be taken to admit them.
The facts of Dil are unusual. However there are important lessons in the case for all litigators.
- The pleading of an "opaque" defence is justifiable only in the most extraordinary of circumstances.
- A failure to fully plead a case can lead to an inference that the allegations are being admitted.
- A "denial" is a much more dangerous thing to plead than a non-admission.
- If a denial is pleaded the reasons for the denial, and any alternative case, must be pleaded.
Bare denials are still, in my experience, set out in defences. These defences are begging for an application to be struck out or an application for summary judgment. However in the post-Denton world, where we are urged to avoid interlocutory wrangling, the most apposite response may well be a well-phrased Part 18 request. For instance in fatal cases a defendant will often "deny" that a claimant is a dependant and never bother to file a counter-schedule.
"1. In paragraph 3 and 7 of the Defence it is "denied" that the claimant is or was a dependant of the deceased for the purposes of the Fatal Accidents Act 1976.
The Defence does not comply with the rules of court. CPR 16.5(2) states that where a defendant denies an allegation "he must state his reason for doing so".
Kindly comply with the rules of court.
(1) State, with that particularity that will enable the Claimant to know the case she will have to meet at trial, why the Defendant denies the Claimant was a dependant.
(2) CPR 16.5(2)(b) requires a defendant to "state its own version" of events if it is to put forward a different version of events. If the Defendant is denying the Claimant's claim then comply with the rules of court and state, with full particularity, the version of events that the Defendant will put forward in support of its assertion that the Claimant is not a dependant.
At paragraph 9 of the Defence the Defendant "denies" the claim for financial and non financial dependency contained within the Claimant's Schedule of Loss.
(1) Yet again the Defendant fails to comply with the rules of court.
(i) State, with full particularity, why the claim for financial dependency is denied.
(ii) State whether, if the Claimant establishes he is a dependant, the Defendant admits the claim as pleaded in full.
(2) If the claim in the Schedule is not admitted in full state, with full particularity why the Defendant has felt it is able to ignore the provisions of the rules, in particular PD 16,12.2 and file a counter schedule.
(For the avoidance of doubt the Claimant will argue, at the trial of this action, that the Defendant's failure to comply with the rules, to plead the Defence fully and to file a counter-schedule, means that the Defendant requires relief from sanctions if it is going to seek to challenge the Claimant's case on damages. On the Defendant's case as pleaded it is not open to the Defendant to adduce any positive case at trial. Further the Defendant is not able to challenge the items in the Schedule)."
Any defendant who ignores and turns up at trial hoping to argue dependency and damages cannot argue that they had not been warned.

The latest SDK seems to fix some of the player issues we've experienced in our app. However there are a number of 'known issues' that would be worst for our users than the new SDK would fix. I was wondering how long before we start seeing fixes/updates to the 'known issues' for the iOS SDK.

Thanks @Shaun Newsum for expressing this. The SDK team would like to know what specific issues you are most interested in so we can provide some specific timelines for you, rather than try to address them all. I appreciate it and then I will follow up with you right away.
Thanks for replying so quickly. Specifically the player issues when it comes to handling interruptions or going into background are preventing us from updating.
- Audio is lost after audio interruption from another app.
- With background option enabled, issues occur with the video (corruption, flicker, or pausing) after backgrounding using HOME/Power button.
- If a user is streaming and their connection switches from WiFi to cellular the connection is lost and the app crashes.
-Audio stream doesn't resume once app is resumed from the background. Workaround: Start and stop the stream instead.
Ok. I will this pass this on right away and respond when I have more info for you.
Answer by Shaun Newsum · Feb 20, 2019 at 07:17 PM
Thank you for following up Rose. I'll go ahead and start testing the latest SDK without our app.
Great! Please feel free to share more feedback, so I can pass it on to the engineers.
Answer by Rose Power-Wowza Community Manager · Feb 14, 2019 at 04:41 PM
Hi @Shaun Newsum, I spoke with the SDK team and I guess they had made the decision to list all reported issues from various users from all previous versions of our SDK and these aren't just known issues from 1.7. Some of these issues are reported by just a few users and so we go in a replicate and test each one thoroughly so see if it is user error or actually something we need to fix on our end. When it is something we corrected, we list it under each new release.
They are going to go in to the docs and put each reported issue and list them under each version where it was reported. The way it is now, I agree with you, it looked like that was a long list of known issues in 1.7 only. Thank you for reporting it to me so we can go in and make that doc more clear to the community.
Furthermore, in regards to the issues you listed, I am going to provide you with times very soon. I am gathering more info. Your feedback has been very helpful so thank you!

The Illness is a progressive rock/ metal quintet from San Francisco, California. Their debut record, "A Monument to our Gilded Age" is set to release June 5th of this year. You can check out a video for their song Misanthropy off their new album below.
The album is composed of a complex amalgamation of progressive rock, blistering fast metal, and jazz-influenced instrumentation. Upon first listen you can immediately hear the wide array of bands that influence the Illness's sound, everyone from Faith no More and Muse to Red Fang and Mastodon. The album gracefully floats between styles, bending and occasionally breaking genre lines. One song will begin with an intense, metal influenced set of riffs at breakneck speed before coming to a full stop and entering into a jazz progression. Where the next song on the album may take on a completely new set of stylistic influences and compositional traits. This band is its own brand of monster and something not to be missed if you're a fan of talented musicianship and the progressive side of genre integration.

Bears: Top 10 Questions
March 2013
Thanks to Evin Oneale and Gregg Losinski, both Regional Conservation Educators with the Idaho Department of Fish and Game for the answers.
1: Why do bears hibernate?
Bears hibernate because they have to. The food sources that are normally available in the summer generally aren't there in the winter, so rather than use the energy that they have remaining to find something, they basically shut down. Bears are not true hibernators. They drop their body temperature and metabolism, but they can start up if and when they need to. (From Abby at Kamiah Elementary School in Kamiah)
2: How tall can a grizzly bear get?
A big grizzly bear might be about five feet at the shoulder when it's on all fours. When it stands up, it might be around nine feet tall. Bears spend most of their time on all fours and a really, really big grizzly could be about six feet tall on all fours. (From Reid at Cynthia Mann Elementary School in Boise)
3: How fast can bears walk?
It depends on what they are walking to or from. They can have a normal pace, like a human, of a few miles per hour, or they can step up that pace and move much more quickly to the point where they can hit 35 miles per hour. It just depends on what they are trying to do. If they are just looking for food, they are going to move more slowly; and if they are trying to get somewhere or get something fast, they can move much more quickly. (From Kristia at Basin Elementary School in Idaho City)
4: What is the most common bear in Idaho?
Easily, the black bear is our most common bear. (From Jazmin at Dalton Elementary School in Dalton Gardens)
5: How long do bears live?
Bears in the wild generally live around 25 years. The grizzly bear lives a little less, usually around 20 years. All bears live a little longer if they live in a zoo. (From Vinnie at Basin Elementary School in Idaho City)
6: Do bears shed their fur?
When winter is coming, bears will put on weight, but their fur doesn't actually bulk up as much as it does with other animals that spend the winter out. So, when you see a bear in the spring, he's going to have a shaggy coat, but not a big winter coat. Bears do, however, slough the pads off their paws. They will lick their paws allowing the dead skin to fall off. (From Raquel at Kamiah Elementary School in Kamiah)
7: Why are female bears called sows?
Bears are actually related to pigs. Male bears are called boars and females are called sows, just like pigs. (From Isaac at Dalton Elementary School in Dalton Gardens)
8: Why do bears leave people alone when they are hiking in the woods?
Bears understand that humans can be trouble. When they know a person is around, they will try to get away from that area. The problem occurs when people surprise bears or they aren't aware that the people are in the area. Then, all of a sudden, it becomes a close encounter. Generally, bears don't want trouble, and they know that people could mean trouble, so they try to avoid us. That's why it's important to make plenty of noise so the bears will know you are there and will move on. (From Rebecca at Dalton Elementary School in Dalton Gardens)
9: How much do bears eat each day?
It depends on what's available. Bears are consumed with consuming. If there is something that is edible, bears will eat it until it is gone. They aren't picky and eat a lot of different things. If there is only a little available, they will eat it. If they have a chance to eat a whole carcass of an animal, they will do so. They will eat whatever is available. (From Millie at Basin Elementary School in Idaho City)
10: Why are some bears more aggressive than others?
Black bears and grizzly bears came about from different locations. Grizzly bears are more of an open plains animal. They are not really a forest dwelling animal, though they do live in forests. They have a different attitude about life. Their best defense is a good offense, so they tend to be more aggressive toward humans and other animals than black bears. Black bears spend most of their time in the forest, and the forest is a great place to retreat to. Black bears tend to be less aggressive than grizzly bears and the black bears' best defense is good defense. If they feel threatened, they will run in the woods and climb a tree. Grizzly bears don't have that option as they are not great tree climbers so they are more aggressive and are more apt to charge. (From Junior at Riverside Elementary School in Boise)

It was a busy week for us. Here are just a few tile roofs we cleaned chemically in the 33647 zip code of New Tampa.
The Thanksgiving and Halloween Holidays are fast approaching, and the season is starting here in Tampa. One of these tile roofs belonged to a winter resident, who could not believe how dirty the recent rains here in Tampa had made his once beautiful tile roof!
He just got back here to Tampa from his summer home up in Northern Virginia, and called us right away.
These are just a few examples of the non pressure tile roof cleaning work you can expect when you hire us. All roofs are cleaned with our gentle chemical solution, never with pressure, or harsh chemicals that can stip the glaze right off your beautiful tile roof.

2016 Toyota Camry vs Honda Accord near Crystal Lake, IL
The New 2016 Toyota Camry is Here! Is it Better Than the Honda Accord?
It's not surprising that there are a lot of midsized sedans on the market. Shopping around can get tiring. Even when you narrow your choices down, you might find it difficult to choose the one you want to drive home. That is why, at Anderson Toyota, we've put together this competitor comparison of the 2016 Toyota Camry vs Honda Accord near Crystal Lake, IL. This comparison looks closely at these two sedans, so you will have a hand in choosing the best one for you.
At the most basic level, both the 2016 Camry and 2016 Accord are four door sedans with expert styling and streamlined aerodynamics. The Camry, however, comes equipped with standard 18-inch alloy wheels, a sporty mesh grille, and plenty of attitude. The Accord will give you 16-inch wheels standard and you can attempt to achieve the same standard of aggressive style when you pay extra for exterior accessories.
The interior of both cars are all about technology features and overall comfort. The Toyota Camry is dedicated to providing you with the best of luxury and comfort features. Even in the lowest of trim options, you will have power-adjustable seats, and once you upgrade to the SE Trim, you will be able to add leather seating to your list of options. When it comes to the 2016 Honda Accord, you will have to operate your seat manually and you won't get the option of leather seats, unless you purchase either of the top trims, the EX-L or Touring.
When it comes to the technology features of the 2016 Toyota Camry vs Honda Accord near Crystal Lake, IL, show that you certainly get more options when you choose to drive home a 2016 Camry. No matter which version of the 2016 Toyota Camry you choose, you will get an Entune™ Audio system that includes either a 6.1-inch or 7-inch touchscreen, depending on whether or not you add navigation1. This system comes standard with iPod® connectivity, Bluetooth® technology2 including voice recognitions and hands-free calls, Siri® Eyes Free, and backup camera3. If you decide to upgrade your system, you can also add Navigation1, App Suite4, SiriusXM® Sattellite Radio, and HD Radio. This system comes with plenty of options, which are available on every model with the exception of the base trim.
The 2016 Honda Accord, on the other hand, also features a touchscreen center console, but this 7-inch display isn't nearly as flexible as the display featured in the Camry. Sure, you can get many of the same features, including, Sirisus XM Radio, HD Radio5, and smartphone connection apps (which function much like the Toyota Entune® system). However, many of those systems, which can come on lower, more affordable Toyota Camry trims, are only available on the higher Honda Accord trims.
When you are looking for the sedan that gives you more, visit Anderson Toyota in Loves Park, IL. Experience the 2016 Toyota Camry vs Honda Accord near Crystal Lake, IL, in person when you test drive a 2016 Camry. Call today for more information – 866-311-2174.

I had no idea what I was getting myself into when I decided to start a blog two years ago. Looking back, starting a blog is one of the best decisions I have made.
This great decision hasn't come free of struggle. When I first started my expectations were low. I barely knew what I was going to write about.
I knew that I wanted to write about health but I wasn't sure exactly which sub-topic I wanted to pursue.
In the first 6 months of starting my blog, I published four posts. Two of the articles got into a Medium publication.
For some reason, I thought that tons of people would read them and I could start building my email list.
The opposite happened of course. I gave up on Medium and writing short-form posts for a long time.
Instead, I took a course which taught me how to write ultimate guides. Writing ultimate guides helped me learn more about the writing process but I wasn't publishing anything weekly.
I got good at producing a large number of words per day but I started to feel isolated. After publishing two guides, I started writing more short-form posts earlier this year.
Through my writing journey I am finding that if I don't share bits and pieces about myself, my posts come out rather clinical and flat.
When I published my guides the number one piece of advice that I got from my friends was that they wanted more of my personal story.
This at the time this confused me. Especially since they have known me for years. I thought that they would want actionable advice to overcome their problem.
I am learning that by sharing my story, readers relate by finding common ground in their story.
This is great and all but it means that as a writer I am forced to be more vulnerable. Perhaps forced is a strong word but bearing your soul on paper all the time is a bit uncomfortable.
Thoughts race through my head like:
"What if I went too far in that post?"
"Did I come across too strong?"
" I feel really weird and naked right now."
One of my favorite coaches Rich Litvin says, " You know you went deep if you have a vulnerability hangover the next day."
Knowing this gives me some comfort but going deep is still uncomfortable.
I want to relate more to my readers but when should I draw the line? Should I tell my readers that I cried on the couch during my meditation session before writing my blog post for the day?
Writing helps me move through my struggles with depression but talking about the process still feels strange.
Since I was a teenager I have struggled with depression. Writing on a consistent basis is helping me keep out of my deepest cycles of depression.
In the last six months, I have written myself out of my most severe moments of depression. This is promising. But I still have a lot of ground to cover.
My vulnerability with writing increases when the dreaded imposter syndrome pops up. I suspect that on some level I will always deal with this struggle but it's still scary just the same.
I am learning to combat my imposter syndrome by being more vulnerable and speaking from my true self.
When I write more from the heart rather than brain the opposite happens than what I expect. I write on Quora a lot and when I weave bits of personal story in my answer, I get more upvotes and engagement.
This encourages me to keep going despite the fears I have about being vulnerable. I am learning that the more you share ( authentically) the better your writing becomes.
Logically this makes sense but putting it into practice remains quite the challenge. I truly enjoy writing and this helps me with being more authentic and vulnerable.
One of my biggest goals is to connect with more people through my writing.
Since I have been more open to sharing more of in my writing I am noticing that more people are signing up to my email list.
This is promising because through connecting with more people my desire is to create clients so I can help others while supporting myself through a coaching practice.
Many of my friends who create daily don't think about monetizing or they are turned off by the fact they can make money through their art.
I think that having this mindset is limiting. If you find a way to connect with others through your writing and then make a living in the process, then you are able to connect with more people.
Making money and writing becomes easier each day. The proof of this is all over the internet.
Monetizing your writing does not mean you are selling out. Conversely, it gives you the ability to impact on a larger scale.
Being more vulnerable is one of the ways to reach your desired audience.
I will continue to share and be more vulnerable despite it being scary. Its better in the long run and I know that I will impact so many more people.
I am more open as a person in my daily life. This shows and people are more open to me in turn. My whole life is more authentic. You can do the same.
Vulnerability is scary but it creates a better life for you and everyone around you.

Wow! Dawn here again and can you believe we over half way through all of the speakers for this Summit! If you have not read parts I, II, III, IV, V, V.2, VI, and VII then consider doing so before going on. If you have (or just do not want to read the last parts) then we can move on after I remind you of a couple important facts. First, this blog series is meant to report on the thoughts and opinions of the speakers who were featured at the 2017 E-Cigarette Summit held in Washington D.C on May 8th. I can only report based on how I saw the event, The thoughts and opinions here do not necessarily represent the thoughts and opinions of A Clean Cigarette. Also, it's important to note that A Clean Cigarette brand electronic cigarettes DO contain nicotine. Nicotine is an addictive chemical. Never smokers, should never start!!!!! In addition, A Clean Cigarette brand electronic cigarettes are not intended to treat, diagnose, or cure any disease or illness.
Okay now on to the good stuff!
A Peek Inside the 2017 E-Cigarette Summit: Part VII.2
In Part VII, I was only able to talk about a single speaker. In an effort to get this blog series done before you all get tired of it. (; I am going to try to get two speakers in versus the one speaker that I was not able to fit into Tuesday's blog. The first of those two speakers is Professor Joanna Cohen Ph.D. Prof. Cohen is a Professor of Disease Prevention at Bloomberg and the Director of the Institute for Global Tobacco Control at Johns Hopkins School of Public Health. Her lecture at the Summit revolved around the tobacco industry and its influence on the e-cigarette regulatory decisions. It was hard to tell whether Prof. Cohen is more on the skeptic side of the issue or the enthusiast. You may recall from past parts of this series that at the Summit most speakers were either in one or the other category. In general, skeptic believes that e-cigarettes are nothing more then big tobacco's way to hook the next generation on a nicotine dependency and "renormalize" the smoking habit, on the other hand, an enthusiast believes e-cigarettes are an alternative to deadly burning tobacco that could potentially save over a billion lives this century.
While Prof. Cohen did not claim to fit into either category, she certainly had a lot to say on how the government needs to regulate these products, or at least what the main focus of those regulations needs to be. Let's look at her talking points and then you guys decide which category she should be in.
Prof. Cohen's Talking Points:
- Agrees with responsible tobacco harm reduction, which she agree's could be the case with ENDS products if regulated and studied properly. (electronic nicotine delivery systems.)
- ENDS products need a ton more evidence and that evidence needs objective independent oversight. (note that about here in the summit I overheard a number of the other speakers commenting on how much evidence is ALREADY available.)
- ENDS need to be regulated for safety standards such as battery safety and dosage label accuracy.
- Ends units should be regulated to make the devices more efficient.
- ENDS units need a standard for Dosing and accountability for mislabeled nicotine dosage.
- Believes the Current FDA deeming regulations are on the right track
While at face value it is hard to argue with most of these talking points, the fact that Prof. Cohen thinks that the current FDA deeming regulation is the right answer caused a large amount of alarm in the audience. Many of the post-lecture questions revolved around these concerns. For instance, if a hugely expensive pre-market application is required for EVERy minor improvement made to an ENDS unit, then how can companies afford to improve the quality and efficiency of their products, and why are there no safety standards for batteries? In fact, the only battery standard currently stated in the FDA Deeming Rule has nothing to do with the real dangers associated with lithium ion batteries. Instead, it requires a "Tobacco Product" warning label vs the more relevant warnings about fire and the batteries explosive properties.
Another point of concern for the audience was Prof. Cohan's insistence that the Master Drug File required by the FDA on all ENDS units was affordable. She even went on to not there are special "protections" in place for small businesses. When these concerns were raised Prof. Cohen stated that the application is very do-able and that while Master Drug Files are complicated the FDA is available to answer questions at any time.
For my part: Prof. Cohan says she wants similar things as I do. Safety standards for ENDS and regulations to protect consumers from faulty low quality or mislabeled ENDS products. But then she points at the FDA Deeming as an example of a good way to do that. I can not agree. That rule was created to regulate a product that is completely different then ENDS products. How can standards and regulations that were made specifically to fit tobacco plant parts wrapped in paper then lit on fire be the same standards and regulations that fit metal and electric components that vaporize a fluid? Because they both deliver nicotine? Well the orange juice should be regulated like Vitamin C tabs…they both deliver Vitamin C, right? Plus, let's get serious on the "help for small businesses she spoke about." Even with the help, the cost to register our products will cost millions of dollars, other than BIG tobacco, who has that kind of funds? Certainly not the mom and pop shops that employ tens of thousands of people in our communities.
The next speaker at the event was Deborah Arnott, Chief Executive Officer, Action on Smoking and Health (Ash. She is also a recognized international expert on tobacco control and she works with WHO. (World Health Organization) Ms. Arnott comes to us from the other side of the pond ( The UK) and she had a fair amount to say on what they did regarding e-cigarettes and what we should do in regards to them as well.
If you have read some of my past blogs then you may recall that in the UK they have decided that since e-cigarettes are (in their words) "95% less harmful than burning tobacco" efforts should be made to license products that meet cerin standards as smoking cessation devices. Sounds good to the enthusiast on the surface, right? Not so fast, as of now, only one license has been granted and it was granted to BAT (British American Tobacco).
She shared her thoughts on how we could improve the FDA deeming rule by adding the ability for ENDS units to apply for medical licensing of some sort in order to avoid the premarket tobacco application and to receive the privilege of marketing said products as smoking cessation tools. In our case, she does think most products should be required to go through the premarket tobacco application process and that ENDS products should reach the standards set by the Deeming rule. That being said, she believes that they have done well over in the UK and since the FDA is better funded they should be able to revise and adapt regulations as the need arises.
Ms. Arnott also made comment on the feedback the UK was getting since the smoking cessation license was granted to BAT. According to her when smokers are asked 1/4th of them say they are not as satisfying as smoking. She indicated that overall the numbers were not as strong as they would have liked.
For my part: Goodness where to start. First off if we stay with the Deeming Rule most companies will be out of business due to the cost, but going pharmaceutical is not any cheaper than the Premarket Tobacco Application. Instead of handing the industry to big tobacco it risks handing this industry to big pharma. How is that any good for the smokers who need these products? How does taking an open market where there is a healthy competition that keeps the cost of ENDS lower on average than burning tobacco cigarettes and handing it to one or two giant corporations really benefit anyone? I mean anyone other than the CEOs of those corporations?
Second and really important. How can we meet the standards that the FDA has put out for this industry when those standards do not exist? That's right there are no standards in the deeming rule. They have yet to set the standards at least in part because the laws these standards need to represent are written for an entirely different product. So then how can we comply with standards we do not have yet? Here's the thing, I agree we need standards but shouldn't those standards be based on this industry not just taged on to another industry? smh
All that being said I appreciate Ms. Arnott for coming the long distance that she did to not only speak but to listen. I hope stories like mine and the others will help put faces on the regulations she proposes. She spoke well and definitely, is passionate about wanting to help burning tobacco victims with approved alternatives. Her means may not see things from all points of view, but her point of view is still a valuable addition to forums like this.
Alright, that brings me to the end of part VII.2 and we are coming in at about 1600 words lol. Check back next week for part VIII where we will talk about a couple more speakers. If you have any thoughts or questions please feel free to reach out to me at firstname.lastname@example.com. Also if you would like more information on A Clean Cigarette brand electronic cigarettes please visit our website at http://www.aclean cigarette.com. I really appreciate you for reading this blog. I hope the information is useful and that I am giving every speaker who attended this event a fair shake. Have a great day, guys. Please visit again!

It's the best time in history to learn anything! There are more resources and more supports than ever before. Of course, learning can be complicated. This week, Andrew explains the core principles of project-based learning. At The Workshop, projects are, well, just about everything.
In Beginning to Read, Marilyn Jager Adams compares cognitive reading processes to the mechanical system in an automobile. Individual parts in a machine, she explains, have specific tasks. For example, the spark plug ignites a car engine, and the steering column directs the wheels of a car to turn. In the same way, she writes, specific systems in the brain direct specific reading processes. "Within this analogy," Adams writes, "print is like gas. The engine and the mechanics of the car are the perceptual and conceptual machinery that make the [reading] system go."
Of course, the analogy is not only limited to reading constructs. Learning is a complex and intensive process. Numerous cognitive systems that help us identify, describe, or understand new ideas and information. And, generally speaking, the machine works! We are able to learn complex concepts or skill with facility.
When teachers present information with clarity and focus, students can quickly memorize or master target content and skills. For example, charter school networks trump year-to-year learning scores that students achieve on narrow standardized exams. Of course, the major problem is that when students learn without context, interest, or purpose, they rarely remember what they've quickly learned.
Education is most effective when we are driving our car with purpose. And when we learn information in isolation, we're operating only a single information system. The pistons are firing, but there's no engine. No radiator. No ignition. To really learn something, we need to connect systems and structures together. At The Workshop, projects are the gas that make learning cars go!
Project based learning helps students place important learning in context of their ideas, interests, and understandings — which helps us apply information to new and different contexts. Because real learning is learning transfer: the ability to transfer content and skills to new and different contexts.
At The Workshop, all of our learning is driven by immersive and collaborative learning projects. This means that students learn advanced academic concepts and skills in the context of authentic, practical challenges. Key elements of project-based learning include:
1) Learning is organized by a larger project or learning challenge. For example, when students work on the Science Fair, they are working on a larger project that helps them learn underlying scientific principles.
2) Students work on a project for extended period of time. For example, when students draft and publish a memoir or short fiction narrative, they work to develop and advance their writing over several weeks.
3) Units of study should investigate complex ideas and questions. Project based learning should inspire deeper learning: complex content, advanced skills, and growth habits that support meaningful, sustainable learning.
4) Units of student should promote authentic, practical projects that include content or skills domain specialists use in their practice. Because learning is best applied in real contexts and real situations.
5) The most effective projects emphasize process learning. That is, students develop more advanced understandings in steps and stages. A supported learning process should include inquiry, experimentation, and exhibition. This helps mirror meaningful professional practice.

This is the ideal neighborhood for residents who are craving an urban, upbeat lifestyle. You're guaranteed never to be bored a day in your life if you live in Columbia Heights.
4. Foggy Bottom
This neighborhood is one of the oldest in all of Washington, founded in the 18th-century. Foggy Bottom is a hub for social and cultural attractions. And if you're looking for a taste of nature, you've found it.
This riverside neighborhood is also home to the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. This landmark is known for the world-renowned music, dance, and drama events performing there daily.
Foggy Bottom is also perfectly suited to students and professionals alike due to its proximity to George Washington University and the affiliated hospital.
5. Woodley Park
If you're searching for a place to call home outside of the hustle and bustle of the city, then this is the spot for you.
Woodley Park is a small, affluent neighborhood residing in the Northwest quadrant of D.C. It's ideal for anyone looking to live an active, outdoor, more reserved lifestyle.
Hit up Rock Creek Park for a relaxing walk or bike ride, or stop by the National Zoo and say hello to the pandas.
This is the perfect area to call home for anyone looking for a residential neighborhood. With the added bonus of nature, that zoo we mentioned earlier, and convenient public transit access, what's not to love?
6. Thomas Circle
Thomas Circle is a trendy and residential neighborhood that attracts a wide array of people.
You can thank Thomas Circle's close and convenient proximity to the downtown scene for this.
After all, who doesn't want to be on the outskirts of downtown – far enough away for some peace and quiet, but close enough for constant access?
Commuters can enjoy the perks of downtown Washington on any given day. And after a night on the town, they get to go home to the more laid back Thomas Circle.
Residents also enjoy an excellent selection of shops, restaurants, and attractions that are present in Thomas Circle.
7. Adams Morgan
Between Woodley Park and fashionable Dupont Circle, Adams Morgan is a lively area, home to a fun-loving local community. These streets are alive with bright colors, whiskey bars, and multicultural restaurants.
Here, you can enjoy an area that has a tight-knit, residential feel while also combining the excitement of urban living.
Home to vintage shops, art centers, and live music from local talents, this is the perfect place to make your home.
There's no shortage of amusement, and every day is an adventure because you never know what new gems you'll discover.

Dupont Circle has been called Washington's trendiest neighborhood, and it's easy to see why. Anything you're looking for, you'll be able to find it here. And you won't have to search for long.
Although it's not considered to be the downtown hub of D.C., it often feels like the very center of the city.
This is thanks to the lively folks that live here, the lush parks in the area, and the city's finest dining.
You'll come for brunch and never want to leave.
9. Mount Pleasant
Mount Pleasant is located just above Adams Morgan and has a more low-key, urban feel that its surrounding locales.
Mt. Pleasant has a delightful "up-and-coming" vibe. With the growing number of local businesses, the weekly farmers market, and a tight-knit community, it's an area that shows great promise for the future.
The "small town" feel combined with the multitude of local businesses allow Mount Pleasant to feel like a welcome getaway outside of the city proper.

Can you imagine reading an article with no margins? On a scale of 1 to 10, how uncomfortable would your experience be?
It's pretty painful (maybe a 7 or 8, for me) without that cushion of space around the text. But good editorial design goes beyond adequate whitespace to let the content be the star of the show. That's why the most readable editorial sites are very precise with their presentation. We've all seen how editorial sites like to cram a lot onto each page, but designs that pay attention to detail rise above the rest.
Today I'll show you 25 editorial sites that I think are winners. As we go along, I'll comment on what specifics really work for them, regardless of the featured content.
Let's get started!
25 Extremely Readable Editorial Site Designs
1. Medium
Flat UI? Easy to read? Plenty of whitespace? Adequate line spacing? You've got it all on this site. You even get to know the estimated reading time in minutes.
2. Ebony
Article photos provide the slider backdrop for the homepage, and the photos are featured behind individual articles. The innovative photo placement, ample margins, flat UI, and a simple color scheme make it extraordinarily readable.
3. Vanity Fair (France)
Enough whitespace, yet bursting with content. Flat UI, eclectic fonts, and a classic color scheme make reading (and browsing) a breeze. And your momentum keeps you moving down this one pager.
4. Pitchfork
High-contrast red on grayscale lends itself well to this site with Flat UI and enough room on the edges of the articles and background to let your eyes breathe. Plus Pitchfork has some killer parallax feature articles that are engaging reads.
Let's take a detour from grayscale-and-red for a moment (but not flat UI) and enjoy touches of aqua, pink and green. Generous margins and efficient lists in the sidebar make reading a pleasure.
Nothing too fancy as far as font and layout goes, but this plain site is readable while making use of space to promote its blogs, additional articles and social sharing.
7. Newsweek
Making use of the arrow buttons of your usual slider, Newsweek lets you navigate through articles in a novel way. And your reading experience is incredibly undisturbed; as you scroll down your article, only "opinions" and "share" intrude.
8. Swide
In order to not derail your reading experience, the simple layout for the article page features a softer-hued background than the corresponding rollover color on the homepage.
9. Tusk Journal
Delightfully minimal web design with neat organization. Though centered text is rare in online journals, Tusk makes it work with their design and terse content interspersed with images.
10. Fast Company
With eye-catching fonts, bright accents on grayscale (particularly the yellow highlighter) and grayscale promotions in the sidebar, this site grabs your attention and has an appealing design (that makes you not want to leave).
11. Inc.
For a site with tons of content on each page, Inc. pulls off an intense juggling act. Most viewed headlines are listed on the side without thumbnails to clutter your vision.
Clean design makes the article text really stand out. Plus the lead paragraph is set in a different font to draw you in from the get-go.
13. Global News
Featuring a sans serif font in the body text that's very similar to Smashing's, this site sports plenty of negative space and subdued social sharing buttons.
14. The New Republic
By using 1.5-spacing, this site's articles leave plenty of room for the reader. The New Republic is similar to Smashing in its complementary orange-blue color scheme, understated flat UI buttons, and abundant margins.
15. USA Today
Like Newsweek, USA Today harnesses our desire to click slider arrows to navigate to new pages and additional articles. While ads in the article are prominent, the popup overlay for the articles is a nice touch for easily going back to the boxy homepage.
16. The Brander
A simple layout with soft pastel background makes for a relaxing read. The articles are especially readable and linear since images are neatly aligned to the right.
17. Wired
Bold and intense like FastCo, Wired's site keeps you, well, wired. While the homepage has a unique layout, the article layouts are in a fairly predictable pattern. One nice touch is the thin lines to partition the section (which elegantly rounds off if you scroll to the bottom of the page).
18. Time Magazine
Part of this site's readability comes from its responsive design, but its attention to font sizing is a huge benefit for the headlines and section headings.
19. The Onion
Here we have another responsive site, which also features subtle grey borders in its homepage layout, 1.5-spacing in the article text and plenty of space all around.
Animated ads aside, this newspaper fits tons of useful information in a small space, while also leaving margins (which is a challenge for many newspapers on the internet I visited). Like the Onion, wispy grey lines frame the text nicely.
To showcase the drool-worthy food photos on this site, the layout keeps the text a pleasant size with comfortable line spacing. Plus the content rather linear — especially when listing articles in a given category.
22. Rolling Stone
Once again we see the classic black, white and red color combo, and the design has its own flair. Besides the pleasant ratio of headline-to-article text sizes, the site's choice of when to use gray or red — rather than standard black text — really anchors your attention.
23. First We Feast
Not only does this site nail a unique style and attitude, but it also offers the most negative space of any site on this list. Reading the articles is fun — above all when a quote is pulled out and showcased.
24. The Next Web
Sleek and efficient, this site allows the left sidebar to be scrolled independently of the main content, which helped my reading and browsing focus. The stuff you came for — the headlines, text, images — takes center stage (and that orange "next" button just begs to be clicked).
25. Salon
Thanks to its striking black background and red accents, Salon's site is crisp and provides a good design for its content. Despite many images in the right sidebar, the design's clear navigation and straightforward sticky bar make the overall design neat.
Improving Editorial Sites
For me, the most frustrating part of any editorial site is the advertising (which I mentioned only a couple times in my list, but are distracting in more in the list and around the web). I'd like to see a better way to incorporate ads, and I think we can brainstorm many creative solutions.
What do you want to see changed in editorial sites? Does reading gray text on a white background drive you crazy? Can you stand thumbnail overload?
Share your ideas, and together we can be a voice for better, more readable design in our editorial outlets 😀

"I know I'm not supposed to say it so soon, and I don't want you to say it back," he said. "But . . . I do."
There was no way I was saying those words back. I liked him, sure. But love? You can't love someone you barely know, right? Then again, I'd never been in love-love. Maybe I'm a cynical American woman who put too much weight on this word.
Now that I live in France full time, I've found that professing one's love right out of the gate is not aberration. It's just one of the many cultural differences: The French go all in from the start. But in the United States, where I lived for 39 years before moving to Europe, dating is generally casual and cautious. Professing your love early on — or immediately treating someone like your boyfriend or girlfriend — generally comes across as needy, aggressive or sociopathic.
David didn't seem to be any of those things. Just sweet, romantic, unafraid. So I went with it. I'd probably never see him again, I figured.
We dated long-distance for almost a year.
Since then, I've met many American women and expatriates who have quickly landed in relationships with French men. And most of us have found it pretty confusing.
The first day American business owner Kelly Clark arrived here, she hit it off with a Frenchman. After a couple of days together, he sent her a Facebook message to say he had booked a flight to Barcelona to join her on the next leg of her trip. She was surprised rather than annoyed by this grand gesture, because there were language barriers. He may have assumed she wanted him to join her because she had told him the specifics of her travel plans, she says. After they returned to France, she invited him to join her for a week in Venice.
"I thought that we were just hooking up on vacation, having a summer fling, skinny-dipping-and-drinking-spritz kind of thing. I didn't find out that to him we were 'dating' until about a month into our relationship," she said, "after sort of stumbling into the conversation where I was interested in putting a definition on it." At first she was surprised by his commitment. "It was far from what I was used to, and I was delighted by it. I found it to be a very … 'swept off my feet romance,' which knows no borders or boundaries."
Like me and several American women I've met, Clark was used to dating American men who were skittish about labeling anything until a few months have elapsed. Hooking up seldom meant you were suddenly in a relationship. But to her current boyfriend, it meant they were official.
For the first six months of our relationship, David and I had several fights over the phone about exactly this. I didn't necessarily want to sleep with anyone else, but he was in France and I was in Spain, so it seemed impractical to have an exclusive long-distance relationship with someone I'd only spent four days with.
Plus, my history of trysts or one-night stands in America was much like Clark's — they never led to anything serious. David just couldn't comprehend why being exclusive was such a big deal, or why this American girl he loved was obsessed with the notion of freedom. It took me six months to finally agree to be exclusive, and that's only because another woman was trying to move in on him.
Like me, Clark did a year of long distance before moving to France. She and her beau talked every day on FaceTime and frequently traveled to see each other. "It was an intense experience," she said, "which I have trouble imagining an American guy doing."
Nine years later, they are still going strong.
Cathline Fermet-Quinet, a French psychologist and sexologist in Lyon, confirmed that, yes, dating in France is different. "We don't have this causal dating period when it's okay to date several people at the same time and keep your options open," she said. "Things end up going faster because we're all in. It's pretty common to go on three or four dates a week with someone you just met."
Meeting friends usually happens after a few dates, she said, and meeting the parents within one to three months.
Caroline Conner, an American who runs wine tastings in Lyon, has had similar experiences. "American men will do anything to avoid calling you their girlfriend. For some reason that's terrifying to them," she joked. "But French men seem to want girlfriends. If you have sex once or even just make out — Bam! You're together!"
The only exception, she said, seems to be if you meet on a dating app and discuss being "sex friends."
This all-in approach isn't always smart, Fermet-Quinet said. "Signing a contract too early and under the influence of love hormones is a little risky." She said she believes couples who dive right in don't stop and ask themselves whether they share the same vision of love or whether they are even compatible.
Emily Chavez, an American law student here, said the accelerated approach the French take to dating hasn't always ended well for her. One man admitted the morning after they hooked up that his recent breakup was not actually a breakup. Others have pretended to be okay with a relationship — or at least not contradicted her when she said that's what she was looking for — only to admit a few weeks later, when things were really starting to get heavy, that they didn't want anything serious.
"Now that I've dated a few, I have decided that the easiest thing is just for me to go with the flow until things go sour," Chavez said.
According to Fermet-Quinet, one-night stands aren't as common in France, or they don't seem like one-night stands because people are too polite to cut off contact without a discussion. Unless you've discussed being "sex friends," not calling or texting someone back after a night together is disrespectful, even if you don't want to go any further.
As much as I like being treated with respect and care, it can be quite confusing. Nina Coates, a British yoga instructor in Lyon, agreed. "They treat you with too much respect for someone who just wants to shag," Coates said. Like me, she's open to relationships or "sex friends," but we never know what we're getting ourselves into.
The last two men Coates tried dating both disappeared after going "full boyfriend."
"They text you every day: Before they go to sleep, as soon as they wake up, when they get home from work, when they're out with friends. It's constant," she said.
Both guys corrected her French homework, and one even helped her find a used bicycle online, making all the calls in French for her. "They cook you dinner, show you pics of their mom, cuddle on the couch, listen when you speak and ask you thoughtful questions. They're good guys … but they don't know how to not be too boyfriend," she said.
Although we both enjoy the romantic gestures and being treated like cherished human beings, it stings much more when they disappear. Neither of us has a clue who wants to date and who is just grooming us for a sexual friendship because they act the same regardless.
Even the ones who do want relationships can backtrack abruptly. David and I ended things right before I moved to France. Even though I was the one to drag my feet on the girlfriend label, he was the one who wasn't truly ready to be a boyfriend.
Dating in the country known for love may be exciting and romantic, but it can also make you even more cynical and cautious about dating than back home. Because in the United States, when someone finally does say "I love you" and goes "full boyfriend," you actually believe them.

Staying Safe in Technology World
Posted by Catlyn Walker on
Staying safe in a technology world is difficult as things change every day. You can fall victim to cybercrime by using a charging cable or USB drive, letting vendors or customers on your systems, or purchasing devices from reputable places. No this isn't anything new but it's still important to be aware of the threats out there and to take steps to prevent attacks. What is scary about these threats is that the majority of attacks are designed to occur behind the scenes, so the everyday person wouldn't be suspicious of something going on once they've fell victim. The malicious...

Posted by Catlyn Walker on
In today's world, technology is the backbone of businesses. This is true across the board, regardless of company size, industry/field, and employee level (newbie to management). We see a few different business approaches that business take. The break-fix, hourly, and managed IT. The Break-Fix Solution Are you only getting support when it's broken, on the last leg, and you are scrambling for help. This solution is becoming out dated and very costly to businesses.

How to Access the Clipboard in My Computer
You are working on a word processing document, and you need access to an item you just copied to the clipboard. You wonder if there is a way to get to the clipboard quickly. The clipboard is a storage area within an operating system for items you "copy" or "cut" from a document, website or other computer application.
Accessing the clipboard on your computer is not tricky. In Windows XP, the clipboard can be accessed through the "My Computer" selection.
Click "Start" from the Windows XP "Desktop."
Click on "My Computer."
Click on the "C" drive icon.
Double-click on the "Windows" folder. If prompted with a message explaining what is inside of the "Windows" folder and asking if would you like access, click "Yes" or similar option to access the folder.
Click on the "System32" folder. If prompted with a message explaining what is inside the "System32" folder and asking if would you like access, click "Yes" or similar option to access the folder.
Scroll down the window, and locate the "Clipbrd" file.
Right-click on the "Clipbrd" file.
Click "Send To."
Select "Desktop (Create Shortcut)" to place a shortcut to "Clipbrd" on your Windows XP Desktop for easy access to the Clipboard file.
Navigate to your Windows XP Desktop, and double-click on the "Clipbrd" file to open the Clipboard.
- If you are using a Mac system and want to access the Clipboard, go to "Finder," then "Edit" and "Show Clipboard" to see items you have copied or cut and placed on the Clipboard.
- Note that Windows Vista doesn't have the "Clipbrd" file---you have to copy it from a Windows XP system and place it within your "System32" folder.
