A&E waiting times 'would not be tolerated' elsewhere says Beggs
Roy Beggs MLA.
Ulster Unionist health spokesperson Roy Beggs MLA has stated that A&E waiting times in Northern Ireland would "simply not be tolerated" in any other part of the United Kingdom.
In a statement, Mr. Beggs said: "Between April 2018 and March 2019, 88 per cent of patients in England were treated or admitted within four hours, according to NHS England data.
"The figure for all the main emergency units across Northern Ireland for just the month of March 2019 was 62.3 per cent.
"Whilst it's marginally better than what it was in March 2018, any attempt by the local Department of Health to proclaim some sort of accomplishment would be totally misplaced.
"Doctors in England have been warning that patients are 'dying prematurely' amid 'intolerable' hospital delays there. I am frightened to think what those same doctors would have to say about ours.
"I have repeatedly said that our local hospital waiting times would cause outrage and be a scandal if they occurred anywhere else in the United Kingdom, yet absolutely nothing is being done to tackle them.
"We still don't have enough beds, we still don't have enough staff and we still don't have enough adequate care packages in the community.
"Luckily we had a very mild December and this winter's strain of the flu was not nearly as virulent as last year's. That serves to demonstrate however just how serious the problem could have been.
"Unless the imminent cross party talks lead to the immediate restoration of an Executive and a local health minister, Direct Rule must be introduced.
"Someone, either here or at Westminster, ultimately needs to be placed in a position to take urgent decisions for the benefit of patients."
Technical fault that caused radiotherapy delays at Belfast City Hospital 'rectified'


On behalf of David G. Smith, Attorney At Law posted in Walnut Creek on Wednesday, April 29, 2015.
The City of Walnut Creek recently released a new mobile app that alerts drivers when traffic lights change.
Called Enlighten, the free app provides audible cues a few seconds before a light changes colors. When stopped at a red light, drivers that use the app receive a countdown with an audible signal (it sounds like a train whistle) just before the light turns green. The feature could work well for daydreamers and those easily distracted from the task of driving.
The app will also notify drivers how many seconds they have before an approaching green light turns yellow.
Walnut Creek officials believe that the app will encourage safer driving. There will now be an audio cue as to what is happening with the traffic signals. Previously, drivers rarely would see the sequence of the upcoming light, either because of curves in the road or lack of attention. There will now be an audible warning that something is about to happen that will alert drivers to pay more attention. The city also hopes the technology will smooth traffic and encourage drivers to stay alert in busy intersections.
"We are pleased to bring this innovative technology to Walnut Creek," Mayor Bob Simmons said in a statement for Contra Costa Transportation Authority. "It is a great first step in opening our roadways to technology that will make our streets safer in the future."
Walnut Creek is only the second California city to adopt this technology.
Enlighten is available for iPhone and Android users.


COMMENTARY ON "DOES JOB FEAR GOD FOR NAUGHT"
This week's lesson continues the Great Controversy theme through the intensifying attack on Job. Instead of moving systematically through the lesson, I will address some of the assumptions stated as fact in the lesson and the Teachers' Comments. The underlying Adventist doctrine of the great controversy completely skews Adventists' dealing with the book of Job as well as with the rest of Scripture.
First, the idea that there is a public controversy in which Satan has made public accusation against God's character and law—an accusation which must be answered by obedient creatures serving God out of free will choices to love Him and thus proving that He is absolutely fair—is simply not biblical.
To be sure, God did vindicate Himself to the universe, but not because Satan had accused Him of unfairness. The great controversy model presents a powerful devil who credibly accuses God of being unfair in His demands on creatures and, as in the book of Job, essentially bribing them to serve Him by blessing them.
Then what becomes of our boasting? It is excluded. By what kind of law? By a law of works? No, but by the law of faith. For we hold that one is justified by faith apart from works of the law. Or is God the God of Jews only? Is he not the God of Gentiles also? Yes, of Gentiles also, since God is one—who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through faith (Romans 3:21-30).
Adventism builds its entire foundation upon a straw-man argument. There is no universal questions about god's fairness. Moreover, the universal question that existed was how He could leave sinful man alive on earth?
The cross was the final answer to God's justice in not punishing the sins committed before the Lord Jesus came as our Sacrifice and Substitute. Now that Jesus has died and risen again, the universe has NO questions about God's justice or man's rightful place. It is clear: those who do not believe in Jesus remain dead in sin (Eph. 2:1-3) and bound in the domain of darkness, subject to the prince of the power of the air. Those who believe are transferred out of the domain of darkness (Col 1:13) and pass into eternal life at the moment they believe (Jn. 5:24).
There is no "great controversy". The assumption underlying the entire lesson series is wrong.
"There is an interesting ambiguity at the beginning of the three angels' messages in Revelation 14:7. The 'hour of His judgment' could refer to the judgment that God is enacting as a Judge, but also to Hi being judged. It appears to be an intentional ambiguity, given that both meanings have an important theological message. While God is certainly the Judge who presides over the final judgment both in its investigative (1844) and executive (second coming of Christ, millennium, and destruction of evil) stages, He also has made Himself transparent to the scrutiny of the universe, with both the great controversy and the plan of salvation being, collectively, a spectacle to the world and to angels. The whole universe will acknowledge Him as a God of love and justice, exactly the two characteristics that Satan has tried to distort."
And I heard a voice from heaven saying, "Write this: Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on." "Blessed indeed," says the Spirit, "that they may rest from their labors, for their deeds follow them!" (Revelation 14:6-13).
You will say to me then, "Why does he still find fault? For who can resist his will?" But who are you, O man, to answer back to God? Will what is molded say to its molder, "Why have you made me like this?" Has the potter no right over the clay, to make out of the same lump one vessel for honorable use and another for dishonorable use? (Romans 9:19-21).
God is not evaluated by His creatures. He is not judged, examined, or vindicated by us. Rather, He makes Himself known, and the cross has displayed His justice for eternity. Nothing began in heaven in 1844, and when God judges the earth, the issue will be over human belief and unbelief. Those who believe do not enter judgment; those who do not believe are judged already (Jn. 3:18).
This lesson's focus and its strained eisigesis of the book of Job is entirely the product of Ellen White and her great controversy. The Bible, however, presents Job not as an example of humanity caught in the crossfires of a battle between Christ and Satan but as a picture of a man who is faithful to God because he trusts Him and His word. Moreover, the book of Job ended with righteous Job repenting for having believed he understood how God worked.
Adventism stands in need of repentance for misrepresenting God, for exalting Satan to a position of importance and influence the Bible never grants him, and for teaching its members that they ultimately have the universal "last word" in exonerating the character of God.
We do NOT help God. He rescues us with no cooperation from us, and He brings us to life when we believe in the Lord Jesus and His completed atonement on the cross and His resurrection from the curse of the law—death.

Q: Laravel joins using different database query I am constructing this query in my Laravel controller;
$payments = DB::table('payments')->leftJoin('postcodes.201502_postcode', 'payments.Vendor ZIP', '=', '201502_postcode.postcode');

    foreach ($input as $key => $value) {
        $payments = $payments->leftJoin('postcodes.pc_'.$key, '201502_postcode.'.$key, '=', 'pc_'.$key.'', 'code');
    }

    foreach ($input as $key => $value) {
        $payments = $payments->orWhereIn('pc_'.$key.'.code', $input[$key]);
    }

    $payments = $payments->select('Vendor ZIP' ,  'Input RAC' ,  'Input LPC Code' ,  'Input UIN Code')->get();

An example $input looks like this;
Array
(
[county] => Array
    (
        [0] => E10000003
        [1] => E10000006
    )

[locauth] => Array
    (
        [0] => E07000223
        [1] => E07000032
    )

[parlc] => Array
    (
        [0] => W07000058
        [1] => S14000003
    )

)
There are 5 fields in total. Not all five fields are required though. Above, "the User" is only searching on 3 for example.
The error I get is Unknown column 'pc_county' in 'on clause'. I'm not sure where to put my dots. Can I escape the dots?
It's getting confusing because the 201502_postcode table is in the postcodes database... and that table has a postcode field. The pc_xxxxx tables are also in this same postcodes database.
This is in a separate db to the payments table.

Ever since it was announced that breakout star Jennifer Lawrence would play the lead role, Katniss Everdeen, in Gary Ross's much-hyped adaptation of Suzanne Collins' bestselling series The Hunger Games, fans have breathlessly updated each other on every new casting decision.
In Collins' dystopian future, teenage "tributes" chosen from each of twelve districts must fight to the death on a reality show broadcast nationwide. Glimmer, played by Leven Rambin, has been preparing for the battle all her life. Rambin has the unique privilege of playing a girl capable of intimidating Lawrence's mostly fearless Katniss, and certainly has the range for such a complicated role: she's starred on TV shows as diverse as All My Children, Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, CSI: Miami, and Grey's Anatomy. Rambin took a moment out of her busy schedule of meetings and training to give Interview a call to chat about the role, LA, how she's getting into shape, and which of her fellow tributes she has a crush on.

Wikivoyage, the free travel guide, uses page banners that accommodate table of contents in the beginning of each article. The banners are panoramic images with the 7:1 aspect ratio, like the one that you see at the top of this page. They depict famous attractions or typical landscape of a destination and can be easily cropped from WLE photos. Last year the banner competition was organized as a satellite event to WLE in Russia and received 88 beautiful page banners. Many of them are now used in Wikivoyage travel guides across 16 different language versions.
Upload the cropped file here. Don't forget a short description!
Add your banner to a Wikivoyage article that does not have its banner yet. To this end, add the name of your file to P948 of the corresponding Wikidata item. NB! When the banner already exists, you are not allowed to replace it and have to seek consensus of the community first. We will do this ourselves for those banners that we deem valuable. We will also do our best to accommodate all useful page banners uploaded during the contest.
At the end of the contest, each jury member will select his/her favorite banners based on the artistic value and on how well the banner conveys the destination it is used for. For each banner selected by each jury member, its author will receive 1 point, or 5 points when the banner is used in Wikivoyage articles. The winner, who will score the most points, will be awarded with a gorgeous photo book of Russian nature.
Geography: this contest covers all destinations outside Russia. If you want to contribute page banner for a Russian destination, use a different upload link and take part in the banner competition within WLE in Russia.
Check out page banners uploaded for the contest!
If you have questions, send us an e-mail or ask on the talk page.
For example, a banner voted by 3 jury members and used in a Wikivoyage travel guide scored 15 points.
Congratulations to N 3 14 15 92 65 on winning the contest! Thanks to all uploaders!

The topic of vaping is controversial. However, one thing is for sure: as vaping is becoming a trendy habit, more and more young users start vaping. Some users vape nicotine or marijuana, which is highly addicting. At the same time, vaping creates a mental habit of vaping every 30 minutes. A definite indicator of vaping addiction is withdrawal.
Vaping Addiction: Are Social Trends Addictive?
Vaping has become a trendy habit, which is also addictive. After the vaping boom on the market in 2008, vaping has gained a lot of popularity among people. From teens to individuals who are trying to quit smoking, the number of people who vape keeps increasing. According to data presented by Euromonitor International, around 20.8 million people vape across the globe, with 43.2% of all users located in the U.S.
E-pens, vaporizers, e-cigs, e-pipes – the range of electronic nicotine delivery systems is impressive. What's more, you can get a new kit or replace your old one in no time. From atomizers and inhalers to a wide variety of e-liquids and flavors, vape shops and websites have it all. In fact, there are more than 400 brands available.
Forums and clubs promote vaping, and all this social pressure and positive image contribute to vaping addiction. One of the reasons that have led to the belief that vaping is less harmful is the lack of toxins, such as tar and other chemicals. However, a recent study conducted by the John Hopkins Boomerang School of Public Health showed that e-liquids also contain toxic ingredients and may have adverse effects on the user.
Although it's true that vaping may help a person reduce their nicotine intake, vapes are not a FDA-approved quit aid. Why? Simply because some vapes contain nicotine. Thus, vaping becomes addictive.
Nicotine is among the most addictive substances and, in fact, the nicotine in e-liquids is quickly absorbed into the bloodstream. As a consequence, nicotine stimulates the release of adrenaline and dopamine. All this affects the paths in the brain responsible for pleasure and reward and leads to nicotine use over and over again. According to the study, nicotine addiction starts during the first few years of smoking. For most people, this period is reported in childhood or early adolescent: 89% of daily smokers tried their first cigarette by or at age 18, and 71% people who have ever smoked daily started by age 18.
Research suggests that vaping addiction puts users at risk for addiction to other substances. In fact, figures show that 30.7% of teens who vape started smoking within six months, compared to 8.1% of non-smokers.
When quitting nicotine-based products or therapy like vaping, nicotine withdrawal can be a concern. Try to wean off of the nicotine by gradually lowering the intake or by vaping lower nicotine strength juices.
Marijuana users have come up with some creative techniques. From hookahs to bongs, the rates of marijuana use are increasing. In fact, a study showed that one in five people who vape have used their vaporizer to get high on marijuana, which makes vaping highly addictive.
Contrary to popular belief, marijuana addiction is not a myth. In fact, more than 360,000 people on marijuana were admitted to treatment for addiction, according to data presented by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration in 2010.
Vaping gives users the chance to get high without combustion. Although vaporizers spare the respiratory system, marijuana may still affect the cognitive functioning and brain structure of the user. For teens, these effects lead to poor concentration and high dropout rates.
When it comes to addictive behavior, it's the psychological dependency that's harder to overcome. Conditioned behaviors and learned models change the reasoning of the user in a way that prevents him or her from quitting. Vaping is addictive as it's a habit, which can be reinforced by many social stimuli. As mentioned earlier, vaping is trendy, so vapers would vape in restaurants, cafes or train stations. If smoking a cigarette is a one-go act, vapers would have a few puffs every 30 minutes.
Even vapers that use 0 nicotine juices can form an addiction to vaping that is psychological rather than physiological.
There are some ways to beat psychological addictions, so if your vaping is causing you problems in your life, then check out this article on how to beat it.
What's more, manufacturers produce more and more flavors, trying to target young people. Thus, according to data, only in 2012, more than 1.78 million students (6-12 grade) have tried vaping.
In addition, second-hand vape can be dangerous due to the aerosol in the vaporizers and in 2016, the U.S. Surgeon General claimed that vaping is a major health concern.
To sum up, vaping and its addictive properties raise controversial debates among researches and users. However, one thing is for sure: if you want to stop vaping, there are many treatment options available near you.
Is there a website for this about "Can Vaping cause diseases?
i'm planning to start vaping and i just wanna educate myself on the dangers, but i just wanna be sure that if i try it JUST ONCE will i get addicted?
Will vaping turn you gay?
Will vaping without nicotine or marijuana be addictive?
Will second hand vaping impact a child in the same room?
I have smoked for 40+ years, recently I went to lunch with a client who owns a vape shop. My client talked me into vaping, but then proceeded to tell me she vaped on a plane?!?!
As a cigarette smoker for 40+ years, I have never thought about smoking on a plane. I am now worried about heavier addiction.

Logo speaks of PH vision of more progressive, equitable region (Philippines Daily Inquirer)
September 7, 2015 Trading
What's in a logo? The globe-shaped logo splashed practically across everything connected to the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (Apec) meetings being held in the Philippines, bears so much significance that each shape and color represents a certain quality, a vision, or a characteristic that is uniquely Filipino.
Not to be confused with the official logo of Apec, the Apec 2015 Philippines hosting logo formed part of a long tradition wherein the member economy hosting the meetings for a particular year would have come up with its own emblem.
Different logos have been used. What is unique about the development of the logos is that the Apec chair for the year decides on how they want to symbolize their [country]. But a key feature, that's always in the development of the logo, is some kind of symbolism that will indicate membership, said Ambassador Angie Sta. Catalina of the Apec National Organizing Committee, Conference Management Services.
For example, there is a star-shaped Apec symbol that was used by Australia. That is actually 21 boomerangs put together in the shape of a star. The one used by Singapore was supposed to be fireworks, composed of 21 bursts. And if you look at the Apec logo of Indonesia, that is the symbol of the Garuda which is a mythical bird with the feathers symbolizing the economies. The last host, Beijing, has 21 lines outlining their symbol which was the tower of heaven, Sta. Catalina explained in a briefing here.
Donated by the Inksurge Design Studio, the official Apec 2015 Philippine hosting logo reflected the vision espoused by the country in treading the path to a more progressive, more equitable Asia-Pacific: It is by building inclusive economies that we build a better world.
According to Sta. Catalina, the circular nature of the logo represented a more connected, more integrated, and more dynamic global community-a community whose direction for growth is increasingly shaped by the member economies of the Apec. These member economies, both advanced and emerging, have served in recent decades as key drivers for shared development.
The design also showed the common waters that link the various member-economies of Apec, in turn forming a geographic bloc of inclusive prosperity and meaningful opportunity for over 40 percent of the world's population and the rest of the international community.
The triangles in blue, red, and yellow, meanwhile, represented the 21 member-economies of Apec. The triangle signified balance, and expresses the strong and stable economy borne of that quality, she explained.
Sta. Catalina further pointed out that the 21 triangles form an arrow pointed upward, which signaled the sustained and shared resurgence of the Apec member-economies.
The light blue shade of the arrow meanwhile represented a member economy's promising development, which is a result of positive engagement with partners and adherence to sound macroeconomic fundamentals.
According to Sta. Catalina, the three colors used for the triangles represented the three pillars of Apec as identified in the 1994 Apec Summit in Indonesia. These pillars refer to the Bogor Goals, which puts emphasis on trade and investment liberalization; business facilitation through cost reduction and efficiency of business transactions; and economic and technical cooperation among Apec members.
The Philippine hosting seeks to inspire greater confidence that, by pursuing the Bogor Goals and by working to realize the vision laid out by the host country, the Apec member economies can indeed build a truly vibrant, truly inclusive future for all peoples, Sta. Catalina added.

Zabaniska – potok, dopływ Grajcarka. Jego zlewnia znajduje się na północnych stokach Małych Pienin w mieście Szczawnica, w województwie małopolskim, w powiecie nowotarskim.

Potok wypływa w dolince między szczytami Witkula i Załazie. Spływa w północnym kierunki przez osiedle Zabaniszcze i na wysokości 466 m uchodzi do Grajcarka jako jego prawy dopływ. Ma dwa dopływy; jeden lewobrzeżny i jeden prawobrzeżny.

Nazwa potoku i jego dolinki świadczy o tym, że dawniej prowadzono tu jakieś prace górnicze (kopalnię nazywano dawniej banią).

What's Closing Your Ears to the Call?
Anxiety kills calling, fast. We're often so bogged down by our busy-list, we can't hear God's call. Even if we could hear the call, it would be overwhelming trying to do that in addition to everything else. But if that busywork isn't in line with calling, it's got to go.


Analog instillation using painters tape, a bucket and rope. Also, The Goonies.
Remember that movie about that group of kids who found a treasure map in one of their dad's attic? Then they ended up in a cave under a shady non-functioning summer restaurant, while some crazy felons were chasing them to get to the riches that had been hidden on a ship for hundreds of years. So, they're being chased and they come to a crossroad where they can take the responsible, easy way out treasureless, and at the mercy of the town yuppie who's buying them out of their own homes, or they can press on. And that one kid gives the feel good speech about not giving up and that it's "they're time down there". That's The Succession of Chester Copperpot. It's about that moment when you have to make a choice; settle for mediocrity and take the easy way out, or stick with it and drudge through the murky swamp and thick-as-molasses fog for the rich stuff.

Once nearly a victim of a disastrous blowout himself, Abercrombie had taken his idea for a ram-type preventer to Cameron's machine shop in Humble, Texas, where they worked out the details, starting with a sketch on the sawdust floor. They filed a patent application on April 14, 1922 (granted January 12, 1926, US Patent no. 1,569,247). A patent improvement (1,498,610) eliminated leakage in the early design. Tests and improvements led to a marketed product in January 1924.
The MO BOP is not in use today, having evolved considerably over 80 plus years. The original MO BOP was displayed at the Smithsonian's energy center in the early 1980s, and it was returned to Cameron headquarters, Houston, where it is now on display in the lobby.

Brendan Fraser showed up at a screening of 'The Mummy' completely decked out in costume
The audience went wild.
The Prince Charles Cinema/Youtube
Brendan Fraser dressed as Rick O'Connell.
Brendan Fraser might be making the greatest career comeback ever, racking up accolades and award nominations for his dramatic, transformative role in "The Whale." But the OG Fraser fans (the ones who watch "Doom Patrol" solely to hear his voice and proudly pronounce his last name as Fray-zure, for this is the proper pronunciation) have known of his remarkable talent since the 90s, when he embodied the ultimate charming, dashing—and slightly goofball—Hollywood action lead.
Let us not forget his arguably most well known and beloved 90s character—Rick O'Connell from the "Mummy" franchise. Between his quippy one-liners, Indiana Jones-like adventuring skills and fabulous hair, what's not to like?
During a double feature of "The Mummy" and "The Mummy Returns" in London, moviegoers got the ultimate surprise when who should walk in but Brendan Fraser himself, completely decked out in Rick O'Connell attire. The brown leather jacket. The scarf. Everything.
"I am proud to stand before you tonight," he told the audience. "This is a film that was made in Britain. You should know that! Even the second one, too. Be proud. Thank you for being here."
He continued, "We didn't know if it was a drama or a comedy or a straight-ahead action or romance, a horror picture, more action, all of the above. No idea until it tested in front of British audiences. Thank you for that."
Fraser then asked the crowd if anyone hadn't actually seen the movie yet, before shouting, "Outstanding!" when somebody raised their hand. He then quickly made a polite plug encouraging people to go see "The Whale" before whisking himself away, saying, "I won't take up any more of your time."
Uh, yeah…I don't think any time spent with Brendan Fraser is a waste. Do you?
Watch the adorable clip below:
As to whether or not "Mummy" fans will ever see a new Rick O'Connell story up on the big screen—only time will tell. In the meantime, we'll keep watching this video on repeat.

Little boy and his mom get the surprise of a lifetime: tickets to the Eagles game
"I hate telling people no, especially when I can help."
Jacalyn Wetzel
ESPN Facebook
Little boy and his mom get surprised with tickets to Eagles game.
In today's world, it's easy to get caught up in all the negative news we're exposed to, but in reality, most good deeds are done away from a camera—just one person helping another without desire for fanfare. And for mom Bryanne McBride and her young son, Mason, that's exactly what they were doing when they got the surprise of a lifetime.
Bryanne was approached by a man in a parking lot asking for a dollar to catch the bus. The entire time, the mom scrounged around in her purse looking for spare change and revealed she felt bad because she thought she had some. Bryanne's desire to help was a simple act of kindness to another human in need without the expectation of something in return.
During the time it took for the unsuspecting mother to dig for loose change, the "stranded" stranger, Zach, introduced himself and asked if the duo were from Philly. Once they said they were from the area, he then inquired if they were Eagles fans...the football team, not the birds. "You ever been to an Eagles game?" Zach asked.
The two quickly said no but the mom was focused on retrieving some quarters for this stranger. Zach continued to question them about the Eagles game, asking, "Would you want to go one day?" The answer was an enthusiastic yes, though Bryanne never broke her gaze from the purse as she looked for change. When she finally relented that she had no money in her purse and would need to check her car, she came back to a surprise.
Zach asked why Bryanne was so willing to help him and her response was just more evidence that she's simply a kind person. "I hate telling people no, especially when I can help," she said. After she handed him the money, he gave it to Mason and said he didn't actually need it before handing the generous mom $500 in cash. But Zach wasn't done—he had tickets to the Eagles game that night and gave the mother and son the tickets.

Woman without an internal monologue explains what it's like inside her head
"She's broken my mind. I don't even understand what I'm not understanding."
PA Struggles/Youtube
An estimated 50-70% of the population doesn't have an internal monologue.
The notion of living without an internal monologue is a fairly new one. Until psychologist Russell Hurlburt's studies started coming out in the late 90s, it was widely accepted that everyone had a little voice narrating in their head. Now Hurlburt, who has been studying people's "inner experience" for 40 years, estimates that only 30-50% of the population frequently think this way.
So what about the other 50-70%? What exactly goes on inside their heads from day to day?
In a video interview originally posted in 2020, a woman named Kirsten Carlson gave some insight into this question, sharing how not having an inner dialogue affected her reading and writing, her interactions with others and how she navigates mental challenges like anxiety and depression. It was eye-opening and mind-blowing.
Reading isn't a particularly enjoyable activity, Carlson admitted, explaining that rather than seeing images of characters and landscapes, she only sees words.
"In my head, every sentence has a shape so you can see the shape of a sentence. Keywords will pop out and I can file those away into my concept map, so at the end of reading something I can have a concept map of the main topics that I read about. It's not images, it's just the words."
That said, she is apparently a "very fast" reader.
This concept alone was hard for viewers to grasp. As one person wrote, "She's broken my mind. I don't even understand what I'm not understanding. I've never visualized a sentence in my life."
While she "never daydreams," Carlson does dream at night. However, she doesn't recall any dialogue in those dreams. Carlson also shared that her alone time is always spent doing stuff like cleaning, cooking, watching Netflix and studying. I can only imagine the things I'd accomplish if I didn't get sidetracked with existential questions like "Is a hotdog a sandwich?" If only.
While Carlson's way of thinking might seem vastly different from the norm, there are several commonalities. Like most people, she has stores of information that she can pull up at any time. Thoughts still can keep her up at night, even if she does picture her endless to-do lists rather than hear them. And not having an inner monologue offers no protection against things like anxiety or depression, which Carlson explains manifest physically for her. Rather than feeling mental overload, her hands will start shaking, her stomach might get nauseated, and she'll feel physically fatigued or disinterested in life.
As our understanding (and appreciation) of neurodiversity becomes more evolved, it's likely that we'll have even more fascinating conversations to absorb. No two people interpret the world that same way. Celebrating these differences reminds us that there is no one "right" way of thinking.

Two couples move in together with their kids to create one big, loving 'polyfamory'
They are using their unique family arrangement to help people better understand polyamory.
Instagram/Polyfamory
The Hartless and Rodgers families post together
Polyamory, a lifestyle where people have multiple romantic or sexual partners, is more prevalent in America than most people think. According to a study published in Frontiers in Psychology, one in nine Americans have been in a polyamorous relationship, and one in six say they would like to try one.
However popular the idea is, polyamory is misunderstood by a large swath of the public and is often seen as deviant. However, those who practice it view polyamory as a healthy lifestyle with several benefits.
Taya Hartless, 28, and Alysia Rogers, 34, along with their husbands Sean, 46, and Tyler, 35, are in a polyamorous relationship and have no problem sharing their lifestyle with the public on social media. Even though they risk stigmatization for being open about their non-traditional relationships, they are sharing it with the world to make it a safer place for "poly" folks like themselves.
It all began in 2019 when the Oregon couples met in an attempt to add some spice to their sex lives. "None of us had been polyamorous before, but we all just met and fell in love," Taya said, according to the Mirror. "We didn't even know what polyamory was, until we started getting feelings for each other," Alysia told Today.
"From the first night we met, we all wanted to just see more of each other. It wasn't easy—there was a lot of hesitations around having feelings," Taya said. "Sean was the first to point it out—he said 'we can't deny this is happening'. We agreed to talk it out to see what the future would look like.
The couple lived two hours from each other, so in February 2020, right before the whole world changed, they moved in together along with Tyler And Alysia's two children, 7 and 8. "The Quad" as they call themselves came together to create what they call a "polyfamory."
Although neither Sean and Tyler nor Alysia and Taya are dating one another, they see each other as close partners. The women have their own rooms which the men rotate in and out of each night.
The couples had a direct way of explaining their relationship to their kids. "We told them: 'You know mom has a boyfriend and dad had a girlfriend and we're going to move in together, and we're all going to be a big family and they're going to help parent you, so we're going to need you to treat them like you treat us— like parents,'" Tyler explained.
Since moving in together, both women have had a baby but no one knows for sure who the fathers are. "We did not regulate the biology," Alysia said. But it doesn't matter because all four adults share parenting responsibilities.
"At the end of the day, we're just like any other monogamous family—there's just four of us," Tyler says. "Being a parent is so much more than just biology, and that's what we're about."

Native Siberian shares what daily life entails in the coldest village on Earth
See how the people of Yakutia, Siberia take showers, do laundry, go to school and more in minus 58 degrees Fahrenheit.
Kiun B./YouTube
A man in the Yakutia region of Siberia takes an ice bath in minus 50 degrees Celsius.
For most of us, waking up to a temperature of minus 50 degrees would spell catastrophe. Normal life would come to a screeching halt, we'd be scrambling to deal with frozen pipes and power outages, school and work would be canceled and weather warnings would tell us not to venture outside due to frostbite risk.
But in the Yakutia region of Siberia, that's just an average winter day where life goes on as usual.
When you live in the coldest inhabited area on Earth, your entire life is arranged around dealing with ridiculously cold temperatures. Villages don't have running water because freezing pipes wouldn't allow for water treatment. Kids go to school unless the temp drops below minus 55 degrees Celsius (which is then considered dangerous). Showering involves spending hours stoking a fire in the bathhouse to create a steamy, warm room.
Native Siberian Kiun B. has created a series of documentary short films detailing what daily life is like in Yakutia's frigid winters. She was born and raised in Yakutsk, Siberia, widely recognized as the coldest city on Earth, where average winter temperatures hover around minus 30 degrees Fahrenheit. As seen in her videos, smaller villages in the Yakutia region regularly dip down into the negative 50s, with the lowest recorded temp in the Yakut village of Oymayakon reaching a mindblowing minus 96 degrees Fahrenheit.
The popularity of Kiun's YouTube channel demonstrates how curious people are about life in such harsh conditions, as her videos have been viewed by tens of millions of people in the past year alone.
Check out this video detailing a day in the life of a family in a Yakutia village.
Can you imagine going out to use an outhouse in minus 40 degrees? Oof.
Another of Kiun's videos goes into more detail about how people shower and do laundry in the region. You might assume they wouldn't line-dry their laundry outdoors, but they do.
What do people wear to protect themselves from the negative temperatures? Frostbite is a real risk, so it's important to have the right kinds of clothing and outdoor gear to stay safe and relatively comfortable.
Kiun shared some frigid fashion norms from Yakutsk, which include traditional fur hats and boots as well as lots of layers and down jackets.
However, there are some Yakut folks who see the cold as something to embrace. For instance, this man takes an ice bath out in the elements as a morning ritual. It's something he has worked up to—definitely not something to try on your own during a cold snap—but it still has to be painful.
(Seriously, please don't try this at home.)
The way humans have learned to adapt to drastically different environments, from the sweltering tropics to the Arctic tundra, is incredible, and it's fascinating to get a close-up look at how people make life work in those extremes. Thank you, Kiun B., for giving us a glimpse of what it's like to experience life in the dead of winter in the world's coldest inhabited places.

Facebook is finally 'freeing the nipple' thanks in part to how it censored one harmless photo
It's a major win for inclusivity.

Facebook has been a great place for people to bare all when it comes to their emotions. But when it comes to baring all with regards to bodies, Facebook has always seemed as if they'd rather people bare none of it. Facebook has received criticism for over-sexualizing breasts, but a new recommendation from Meta's advisory board says the nipples can come out for nonbinary users.
Recently, Facebook censored two posts from a transgender and nonbinary couple that featured the couple appearing topless. Even though their nipples were covered, an AI system took the photos down for "violating the Sexual Solicitation Community Standard" after they were flagged by a human user. The couple appealed to Meta, and the photos were reinstated, but it was enough to catch the attention of Meta's oversight board, which advises Meta on content moderation policies and is made up of academics, politicians and journalists.
After looking at the issue, the oversight board suggested Meta change their Adult Nudity and Sexual Activity Community Standards "so that it is governed by clear criteria that respect international human rights standards."
According to the board, Meta's policy was "based on a binary view of gender and a distinction between male and female bodies," making it "unclear" in how it deals with intersex, nonbinary and transgender users.
"We are constantly evolving our policies to help make our platforms safer for everyone," a spokesperson from Meta told The Guardian. "We know more can be done to support the LGBTQ+ community, and that means working with experts and LGBTQ+ advocacy organizations on a range of issues and product improvements."
How free the nipples should be on the social media platform has been a source of contention for more than a decade. Breastfeeding moms have been leading the battle of the boob, duking it out with Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg over their ability to share nursing photos on social media. They've gone so far as holding a "nurse in" at Facebook headquarters to protest the ban on breasts.

In 2020, Instagram loosened up its nudity policy thanks to a campaign started by Nyome Nicholas-Williams. While nipples are still a no-no, Instagram now allows breast cupping, hugging, and holding. And in 2021, the oversight board gave the okay for "health related nudity," allowing for photos of nips if they're related to things like breastfeeding, birth-giving, breast cancer awareness, or gender-confirming surgery. Acts of protest are allowed as well.
Facebook has received criticism for the platform being lax on hate speech but tough on boobs. Meta CEO Mark Zuckerburg has said this is because it's "easier to build an AI system to detect a nipple than what is hate speech," which might explain why Meta is going to use "human reviewers" to "quickly assess both a user's sex, as this policy applies to 'female nipples,' and their gender identity," according to the board.

The new nipple rules are only applicable to transgender and nonbinary users. "The same image of female-presenting nipples would be prohibited if posted by a cisgender woman but permitted if posted by an individual self-identifying as nonbinary," the board noted in its decision.
While the nipple might not fully be free on Facebook, it has taken one large step forward out of its cage. However, Facebook's over-sexualization of breasts might just be a reflection of society, and in order for the nipple to run wild and out in the open, we might need to change the way people think about breasts in general.

Das Konzert wird von Deutschlandfunk Kultur live übertragen.
Silence resounding: with the concert "The Sound of Silence" the internationally renowned vocal ensemble Chorwerk Ruhr opens the festival Chor@Berlin at Radialsystem. The sensitive world of the early baroque madrigal will meet contemporary compositions and improvised sounds by jazz pianist and composer Marc Schmolling and his ensemble. Instrumentals, layers of sound, but also text declamation and vocalises meet "classical" choral singing, early baroque meets the contemporary, the composed meets the improvised. Marc Schmolling also refers to texts by his mother Inka Machulkova - one of the leading figures of the Prague literary scene and the Czech beat generation of the 1960s - and by Georg Trakl on the concept of silence. Also the impulse-giving title track from Schmolling's album "Ticho" (Czech for "silence") will be heard.
Eine Veranstaltung des Deutschen Chorverbands und des Radialsystems, in Kooperation mit dem Chorverband Berlin.

Home MMA & UFC NEWS Kevin Holland Calls Out Donald Cerrone And Then Changes His Mind
Kevin Holland Calls Out Donald Cerrone And Then Changes His Mind
After Kevin Holland beat Alex 'Cowboy' Oliveira at UFC 272 on Saturday night he proceeded to call out his opponent's namesake Donald 'Cowboy' Cerrone to fight next, but it seems he's since had a change of heart.
"I just took down one cowboy, I'd hate to call out another, but… whatever you guys want," Holland had stated in his post-fight interview in the Octagon.
Cerrone was actually at the event and later he responded to holland's call-out.
"Kevin, what's going on? It's Cowboy," Cerrone said in a video. "I was taking a piss in the commode when you called me out, but I got Joe (Lauzon) on May 7th. After that, I'll come back to '70 and we can dance, baby."
However, it seems that Holland has already decided against fighting Cerrone, who at the tail-end of his career is suffering a major slump in form, having now gone six fights without a win.
"I was just throwing up stupid s—t," Holland admitted later. "You know me. I be just talking, but I think the other 'Cowboy' and me should not fight, to be honest with you. I think I should be fighting Daniel Rodriguez next, just because last time I called out 'Cowboy,' Daniel Rodriguez hopped in my inbox and was like, 'Yo, don't do that. That's my OG.' So respect to both of those guys.
"Of course I would like to fight the OG, but sometimes you got to take out the student before you can take out the OG," continued Holland. "If I take out the student, I don't even really feel like I need to take out the OG. It'd be nice to have the name on the board, but at the end of the day, I'm a big 'Cowboy' fan. So, it probably wouldn't even make me feel as good as I think it would."
Rodriguez is currently on a three-fight winning streak, with his latest fight being a unanimous decision win over Kevin Lee back in August of last year.

Despite the decision of the Commission on Audit (COA) to lift its order for former Caloocan Mayor Enrico Echiverri to return P1.06 billion in public funds previously deemed unlawfully spent, the Sandiganbayan has ruled that the criminal cases against him will still push through.
In two separate resolutions, the court's Sixth and Seventh Divisions denied Echiverri's motions to quash two of his 33 pending graft cases as he invoked two COA decisions dated June 15.
The COA rulings had granted Echiverri's appeal to set aside two notices of disallowance issued on Oct. 25 and Nov. 12, 2013 for the reimbursement of funds spent on his various projects which did not have prior authorization from the Sangguniang Panlungsod.
According to COA, the procedural irregularities were cured after the city council subsequently passed the necessary resolutions ratifying and validating the already-implemented projects.
However, the Seventh Division said the COA rulings did "not lend support" to Echiverri's argument that the allegations stated in the Ombudsman's charges did not constitute an offense.
This meant Echiverri could invoke the COA rulings only in a full-blown trial. His arraignment for the case involving an P8.81-million drainage project that was allegedly not authorized by the Sangguniang Panlungsod had been scheduled on Jan. 26.
Meanwhile, the Sixth Division which has jurisdiction over the case of the P4.9-million multipurpose hall at Barangay Urduja sidestepped the issue of the COA ruling.

Fashion Retail Future
gusanos en los dientes
The fashion industry has been undergoing significant changes for years. This is largely due to the advancements of technology and the constant pressure from new business models.
This changing fashion market can be seen with how fast fashion has become a global phenomenon that allows people to change their wardrobe every season. It also reflects how technology has impacted our lives through fashion choices. For example, AI-driven facial recognition software is now widely used in the fashion industry to quickly identify potential trends before they even hit the runway or make it onto social media sites like Instagram or Pinterest.
Fashion Retail Future - Blockchain technology
The latest addition to this changing world is blockchain technology which promises an unprecedented level of transparency and traceability for all products in the fashion industry - giving consumers greater control over their purchases, which will ultimately lead to more efficient ways of doing business.
The future of blockchain technology in the fashion industry is uncertain. It may be the most disruptive technology in the long history of retail, but it may end up being not that much different from what's already happening.
It`s likely that in the future, machine learning will continue to change retail and other industries by making it better and easier to buy products. But there are risks associated with this technology - such as increased automation of jobs and a reduction in employees` wages.
The future of online shopping is here. Just look at the sales figures for Amazon, Alibaba, and Walmart - they are all skyrocketing.
While there is no doubt that AI can help in generating customer insights and improve product recommendations, it cannot replace the human touch.
It will take time for online shopping to catch up with offline shopping. However, it is not impossible for AI to make a significant impact on the business in the near future.

An anecdote is "a story with a point", such as to communicate an abstract idea about a person, place, or thing through the concrete details of a short narrative or  to characterize by delineating a specific quirk or trait. Occasionally humorous, anecdotes differ from jokes because their primary purpose is not simply to provoke laughter but to reveal a truth more general than the brief tale itself.

Anecdotes may be real or fictional; the anecdotal digression is a common feature of literary works and even oral anecdotes typically involve subtle exaggeration and dramatic shape designed to entertain the listener. An anecdote is always presented as the recounting of a real incident involving actual people and usually in an identifiable place. In the words of Jürgen Hein, they exhibit "a special realism" and "a claimed historical dimension".

Etymology and usage
The word anecdote (in Greek: ἀνέκδοτον "unpublished", literally "not given out") comes from Procopius of Caesarea, the biographer of Emperor Justinian I (). Procopius produced  a work entitled  (Anekdota, variously translated as Unpublished Memoirs or as Secret History), which consists primarily of a collection of short incidents from the private life of the  Byzantine court. Gradually, the term "anecdote" came to be applied to any short tale used to emphasize or illustrate whatever point an author wished to make. In the context of Greek,  Estonian,  Lithuanian,  Bulgarian and Russian humor, an anecdote refers to any short humorous story without the need of factual or biographical origins.

As evidence

Anecdotal evidence is an informal account of evidence in the form of an anecdote. The term is often used in contrast to scientific evidence, as evidence that cannot be investigated using the scientific method. The problem with arguing based on anecdotal evidence is that anecdotal evidence is not necessarily typical; only statistical evidence can determine how typical something is. Misuse of anecdotal evidence is an informal fallacy.

When used in advertising or promotion of a product, service, or idea, anecdotal evidence is often called a testimonial. The term is also sometimes used in a legal context to describe certain kinds of testimony. Psychologists have found that people are more likely to remember notable examples than the typical example.
