So, come one, come all. It's not like you have anything better to do, and we'll be playing all of your favorite hits. We'll be doing some string quartet stuff, some electronic stuff, maybe some duets. OK, so we don't exactly know what pieces we'll be playing, but I'm sure they're your favorites nonetheless.

Will Egypt Demand Release Of World Trade Center Bomber, The "Blind" Sheikh, For 19 American Hostages?
February 18, 2012 - San Francisco, CA - PipeLineNews.org - Omar Abdel Rahman [aka, the "blind" sheikh] is currently serving a life sentence in a maximum security prison for his role in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing.
Plucked from this relative obscurity, he has once again been injected into the news cycle, this time as part of gambit by Egyptian Islamists [including presidential candidate Hazem Abu Ismail] to secure Rahman's release in exchange for 19 Americans [most employed by NGOs] who are being held hostage in the country, accused of fomenting civil unrest.
According to Iran's semi-official Press TV news agency [see, http://www.presstv.ir/detail/227393.html] Ismail, "...an Islamic thinker, and a presidential hopeful said the parliament ...must play a pivotal role in pressuring the government to hold serious talks with the US over the release of [the] al-Azhar cleric...an Egyptian lawyer told Press TV that the Parliament along with the government should take the initiative to propose the release of the detained Islamic leader in exchange for 19 Americans who will be tried later this month on charges of receiving funds to instigate violence in the country..."
Ismail has long been recognized as an influential Muslim Brotherhood intellectual but officially broke ties with the party [wink-wink-nod-nod] upon his announcement as a candidate for the Egyptian presidency.
The demand for Rahman's release is not a new issue to Egyptians however.
"According to multiple reports [see for example, http://www.forbes.com/feeds/ap/2011/04/21/general-ml-egypt-protest_8428796.html] a large mob of Islamists has gathered outside the U.S. embassy in Cairo, Egypt demanding that Omar Abdel Rahman, aka the "Blind Sheikh," be released from confinement in the United States. Rahman is serving a life sentence for his role in multiple terror plots including the first bombing of the World Trade Center in 1993. Those conducting the protest are not your garden variety Muslim Brotherhood riff-raff, as Associated Press is reporting, 'The protest leader was Abboud el-Zomor, who was released from an Egyptian prison in March after serving multiple sentences for his role in the assassination of former Egyptian President Anwar Sadat.'"
It's likely that such pressure tactics by the Muslim Brotherhood will only stiffen the already considerable resolve expressed by some DC lawmakers to pull the plug on foreign aid to the country.
Standing in opposition are the usual suspects, Hillary's State Department and the WH, still eager to curry favor with the terrorist Muslim Brothers.


Before Independence, British administrators in India published imperial district gazetteers, including those for Angul, Balasore, Cuttack, Koraput, Puri and the 'Feudatory States of Orissa'. This gazetteer, published in 1933, describes various aspects of Odisha's Cuttack district. It surveys the district's economy, society, politics and administrative setup, as well as its history, geography, climate, biodiversity and natural resources.
The gazetteer says that the district was divided into two valleys by three big rivers: the Mahanadi to the south, the Baitarni to the north, and the Brahmani between the two. Its principal town Cuttack, located along the Mahanadi, was the administrative headquarters of the district and the Orissa Division. The district was spread over 3,644 square miles (over 9,437 square kilometres) and had a population of 2.17 million (2,176,707 persons), according to the 1931 Census.
The gazetteer says that indigenous tribes such as the Khond in the south, the Gond in the west, the Ho, and Bhumij and Santal settlers in the north, probably migrated to Orissa (now Odisha) in historic times. Others like the Savar, the Juang and the Pan were most likely indigenous to the region. However, the absense of reliable data made distinctions between the original inhabitants and migrants difficult. In the gazetteer's view, caste discrimination and religious superstition were "great obstacles in the way of progress," particularly with respect to education.
After Independence, in 1957, the responsibility of compiling the district gazetteers was transferred from the Centre to the states. In 1999 (in Odisha), this responsibility was transferred from the Revenue Department to the Gopabandhu Academy of Administration.
The district had three distinct tracts: a marshy woodland strip, a cultivated alluvial plain and a 'broken' hilly region.
The alluvial plains were the best suited for agriculture. They were classified based on their elevation and composition into (i) lowlands or jala (wetlands) where rice, the staple crop, was grown; (ii) highlands, with dark, manure-enriched soil or kala, where vegetables, cotton and jute were grown; (iii) riverside lands or pala where tobacco and mustard were grown.
The gazetteer traces the history of the region in chapter two, from its rule under the Anava race to the Nanda empire, Emperor Ashoka, the Mauryan dynasty, King Kharavela, the Andhra dynasty, the Kesari kings, the Eastern Ganga kings, the 'Muhammadan' kings, the Suryavansha dynasty, the Maratha rulers and the British.
Other than 'rough attempts' to put together estimates, there was no record of a 'regular' census in the district before 1872. This census recorded a population of 1.49 million with an average density of 470 persons per square mile.
Subsequent censuses in 1881 and 1891 showed that the population had grown to 1.73 million and 1.93 million, respectively. The growth rate increased during this period, despite the great cyclone in 1885 (that destroyed 45 villages) and repeated outbreaks of cholera.
Drought and crop failure in 1918 led to a wave of illnesses (malaria, cholera, fever, dysentery and small pox) and deaths (93,000 persons) that swept through the district that year and the next. The 1921 Census recorded a decrease in the population, from 2.1 million (1911 Census) to 2.06 million. However, in the 1931 Census, the population had grown to 2.17 million.
Cuttack, like other districts in Orissa, had a "marked excess" of women (1,117 females for every 1,000 males) in the rural areas. In the towns, however, there were 850 females for every 1,000 men.
Oriya (now Odia) was the mother tongue of the majority of people, but Bengali, Hindi, Telugu and English were also spoken in the region.
The region was a major pilgrim centre for Hindus, who accounted for a majority of the population (96.7 per cent). The 'Muhammadan' population was a close second at 3.03 per cent of the population.
The Khandait ("peasant militia under the ancient Rajas of Orissa") were the largest caste group in the district. Other major caste groups were the Chasa (an agricultural caste), the Brahmans (a priestly caste), the Gaura (a pastoral caste), and the Pan (weavers and labourers).
The number of schools recognised by the government in Cuttack rose from 3 with a total of 168 students in 1856-57 to 50 with a total of 2,755 students in 1870-71. By 1875, there were 539 schools with 10,196 students, and by 1885 the number was 4,736 schools with 65,000 students. Ravenshaw College, the only college in Orissa, was in Cuttack.
The 1931 Census showed that 5.35 lakh persons earned their living from pasture or agriculture, either as 'direct earners' or 'working dependents', and for 54,971 persons, agriculture was a subsidiary occupation. These figures did not account for the large number of non-earning dependents.
Silver filigree work was the most prominent industry in the district. The gold and silver industry provided employment to around 2,400 families.
The chief article of export was rice; other exports included oil seeds, hides, jute, timber, horns, feathers, bones, panasi grass, wax and resin. The principal imports were piece goods, kerosene oil, glassware, crockery, lead, copper, zinc, gold and cotton yarn. Exports greatly exceeded imports, whether by rail, river, road, canal or sea.


The Rex RX-2000 Max-Hand Shore Durometer is the latest innovation for the testing of specimens with creep. The RX-2000 has a max- hand and an active hand for observing the creep characteristics of a specimen. What makes the RX-2000 unique is the magnetic-drag maximum reset mechanism. The user simply rotates the reset knob on the front of the gauge to clear the previous reading. The simplicity of the reset mechanism ensures a lifetime of use, and makes the RX-2000 the most affordable durometer for testing specimens with creep.
We offer a complete line of durometer test stands. The stand, when used in conjunction with a Durometer, eliminates operator error sometimes associated with hand-held durometer testing. Our stands feature a load weight for the proper testing pressure as noted in ASTM D2240, and a quick-lock column for easy adjustment.

In Britain, Unpaid Interns May Catch A Real Break
The government is going after 100 companies accused of exploiting young workers who are eager for experience. It's one of several efforts to expose abuses in what some say has become "a defining characteristic" of the Millennial generation.

What's the Latest Development?
Tax authorities in Britain are looking at a list of 100 companies that have been accused of exploiting young people in unpaid internships by not paying them for work for which they are legally entitled to receive the minimum wage. The list was compiled by London-based activist group Intern Aware and has not been released to the public. Co-director Gus Baker estimates that there are 100,000 people in Britain working in unpaid internships, and says his is one of several groups around the world that are exposing abuse of the practice.
What's the Big Idea?
Unpaid internships have always existed in certain sectors, such as nonprofit, but with the economic crunch and the shortage of full-time paying jobs, a wider range of companies are offering them to young people who are eager for work experience. Unfortunately, some of those people aren't willing to complain about unfair treatment out of fear that they'll lose what could eventually become a paying job. Hopefully in Britain this will no longer be the case: A British government spokesperson says that any future complaints they receive will go immediately to the tax department for investigation.

You are here: Home / Make Up / Essence Cosmetics in the UK & Pop Up Stand Information in London & Manchester!
I first encountered Essence cosmetics when I went on holiday to Budapest a few years ago and ended up buying a ton of the extremely affordable range to use. Now a good three years later, the brand has come to the UK and is finally accessible (I hope) to many more people out there!
I don't really blog about events, but there was an extremely nice do oooop North where we had the chance to learn more about the brand and also take home a selection of cosmetics to try (I will do reviews randomly as I go through the selection of products I chose!).
A few key things stand out for me in regards to Essence (a German brand, if you are interested!).
Firstly, the range is VAST. Generally speaking there will be 2 metre length stands in selected Wilkinsons stores, but also two pop up stands that are 3 metres (actually 6 because you got both sides!) in Westfields, London and the Arndale Centre, Manchester for the foreseeable future which has an even bigger selection!
A quick note on the returns policy on the pop up stand – unused products can be returned within 48 hours with a receipt! So that's good to know because you know how funny people can be with you wanting to return make up these days.
Essence also strives to be an innovative brand and every year, they aim to change up 40% of their collection obviously depending on what sells, and what needs to be revamped. They already have quite up to date products that compete with other things on the market, such as the nail polish removing pot (like Bourjois, but cheaper), Gel Nails at home (once again cheaper than most on the market as the lamp is £19.99) and so on.
I got my nails done too whilst I was there, with some minty green and nail art. The nails lasted for 3 days without chipping, then 6 days in total before it had to be removed, so not bad at all.
Essence is such a fun range, definitely check out a stand if your local Wilkinson's has a counter, or if you're lucky, either of the two pop up stands! (The Manchester Arndale one is located outside Druckers Patisserie).


Are you a Tesla owner? Do you know a Tesla owner? Is the interminable wait for the Model 3 getting you down?
Huzzah! Have we got just the right thing for you. Introducing the Elon's Musk car air freshener. We are not joking. It isn't April 1. We checked. Then checked again. This is an actual product being produced and sold by an entity known as The Elon's Musk Company. You can even buy them in three-packs.
You can buy one for $ 6.90 or the three-pack for $ 17.90.

Topic Network Security
NAC and endpoint security frameworks: Which way to go?
We've all heard about the Cisco and Microsoft initiatives for NAC, plus the standards-based Trusted Network Connect. What's the difference between these approaches and which, if any, should you choose to secure your endpoints and keep your local networks from being compromised?
David Strom
This article originally appeared in Information Security magazine. Click for more information or to subscribe.
Endpoint security is arguably the hot information security topic in 2006 -- small wonder. No matter how diligently you defend your perimeter, roaming laptops and devices are bound to introduce worms, viruses and spyware into your network.
The mobility of commodity laptops equipped with wireless adapters has set your workforces free to work productively at home and on the road, as well as in the office. Consultants and vendors can plug into your networks for an hour or a day--how do you protect yourself against what they may bring in?
NAC – More than endpoint security
Network access control is a hot topic and a challenging one. Learn the ins and outs in our special report:
>>NAC: Should you implement now?
>>NAC and endpoint security frameworks: Which way to go? >>NAC appliances: Shortcut to access control
>>NAC underneath the covers: Endpoint health assessments >>Defending an expansive definition of NAC
The two behemoths of network infrastructure and OS software, Cisco Systems and Microsoft, each have initiatives to ensure that endpoint devices comply with security policies before they are admitted to the corporate network. Not surprisingly, Cisco's Network Admission Control (NAC) depends on the Cisco switching infrastructure, and Microsoft's Network Access Protection (NAP) works through Windows OSes. In addition to these pervasive yet proprietary approaches, Trusted Computing Group is developing the standards-based Trusted Network Connect (TNC).
Which, if any, should you choose to secure your endpoints and keep your local networks from being hammered by compromised machines that have become roaming malware collectors?
Solution needed -- now
Faced with a security problem that needs immediate attention, you should be looking for a solution that allows you to define granular policy, detect every device that connects to your network, assess its level of compliance, enforce access policy and remediate noncompliant machines.
This is a tall order for any security system, and getting on board with endpoint security isn't going to be simple. The "big three" architectures--NAC, NAP and TNC -- are incomplete, costly to implement and complex to understand. They are also coming at the issues of endpoint security from different places, so it's not surprising that they aren't mutually exclusive:
Cisco's NAC focuses on network infrastructure and policy definition and management, and, of course, assumes that you will have plenty of Cisco routers, use Cisco's security solutions and want to keep within the Cisco family as you move towards locking down your endpoints.
Microsoft's NAP takes more of a health-assessment approach and remediation, assuming that you start with Microsoft servers and desktops, and that your primary focus is keeping them running and secure.
Trusted Computing Group's TNC takes the broad-brush architectural approach, and assumes that every desktop contains a specialized piece of hardware to verify that the endpoint hasn't been compromised and builds on that hardware to monitor and enforce endpoint policies.
Let's look at these efforts and see what they claim to cover -- and where they come up short.
Cisco's NAC
NAC is ahead of the game because of the confluence of both architecture and products that support it. NAC is designed to secure network access through trusted modules that are implemented in its router and switch code, as well as Windows and Linux clients.
There are lots of vendors supporting NAC, and for good reason: You'll need several of them to put together a complete solution that can handle all five of the endpoint security requirements (see right). You'll need to run at least two agents on your endpoints to handle more complex policies and for SSL VPN compliance checking, for example.
NAC employs client software, the Cisco Trusted Agent, that gathers device information and passes it using 802.1X mechanisms to Cisco's RADIUS server, the Secure Access Control Server (ACS). ACS communicates with third-party policy servers (AV, patch) to determine compliance and enforce network access via the switching infrastructure.
Some analysts feel that NAC takes too many pieces to deploy; it may be difficult to implement because of having to manage all the IOS updates to get the pieces to work together and maintaining it as infrastructure changes are made.
The problem with NAC is that it is its own island of security, with reliance on Cisco's RADIUS servers as its sole authentication mechanism, and Cisco switches with up-to-date firmware. Moreover, NAC doesn't necessarily work with Cisco legacy infrastructure, unless it can be brought up to current firmware levels.
"Part of the NAC problem is that you have to upgrade your IOS versions," says Lloyd Hession, the VP and CSO for BT Radianz, a major IT supplier to the financial services sector. "I have 40,000 routers across my network, and that isn't an easy proposition." Instead, Hession chose ConSentry so he could eliminate MAC-layer filtering and access controls across his network. ConSentry sells an inline security appliance that assesses and enforces endpoint security policy compliance.
Moreover, NAC architecture is short on remediation--it falls short on managing patch levels of the endpoints themselves. Also, there's not much flexibility in what happens after a device is assessed: It either passes and is allowed on the network, or it doesn't and gets routed off to some VLAN with limited access.
"Getting a client out of quarantine is really the trick, and that is what we do," says Rich Lacey, the Altiris product manager who handles the company's NAC-compliant products, which provide remediation solutions through desktop management and replication.
Cisco has the support of McAfee, Trend Micro and Symantec antivirus products, along with a smattering of other hardware and software vendors.
Hession didn't find installing agents on all his endpoints to be particular appealing. "The problem with agents is that you end up having to install multiple ones to support all the things you want to do, such as antivirus and access controls. Cisco's NAC forced me to go in one direction with the agent that I didn't want to go towards."
"We currently support agents," says Russell Rice, director of product management for Cisco's Security Technology Group, but "we will also do agentless solutions, and active scans and assessments of other non-Windows devices."
NAC is widening its support beyond agents, and vendors such as Qualys -- with its QualysGuard for NAC -- are providing services that support agentless monitoring of network devices such as printers and other embedded devices that can't employ agents.
Microsoft's NAP
NAP is yet to be implemented in any product, although the effort has a long list of more than 60 supporters, many of whom are hedging their bets and are supporters of NAC as well.
NAP brings the security policy management and enforcement perspective into Windows Server that has been somewhat lacking since the early days of Active Directory.
"NAP will provide the ability to enforce policies through a variety of mechanisms, using IPSec for host authentication, 802.1X, or through a VPN or DHCP," says Mike Schutz, the group product manager at Microsoft's Windows Server Division, which is leading the charge for NAP.
Like NAC, NAP employs client software, Quarantine Agent, that passes information to Microsoft's Network Policy Server, which, like Cisco's ACS, checks with third-party servers for policy compliance. NAP promises multiple enforcement options including DHCP, IPSec VPN and 802.1X.
NAP will initially only support Longhorn Server and Windows Vista, as well as XP SP2, which will require a NAP update on each device. This will present problems for shops using older versions of Windows, and require commitments to the new OSes, and testing and managing XP upgrades. Further, authentication and enforcement servers, i.e., DHCP and RADIUS, will require Longhorn, needing further upgrades and making NAP even more proprietary.
"We don't think of NAC and NAP as being an either/or situation," says Schutz. "We've announced that we would be working together on interoperable solutions, so customers can choose what will best meet their needs." However, neither Microsoft nor Cisco is currently working with the TNC solution and have no immediate plans to do so.
The government in Fulton County, Ga., is already wading into NAP, with early versions of Microsoft servers and Vista desktops and laptops.
"Everything is still in beta," says Keith Dickie, who is managing the NAP rollout of the county's IT department. "But several members of our IT staff are using it on their production machines without any problems, including incorporating Symantec's Norton Anti-Virus with Microsoft's SMS and Windows servers."
The county is using IPSec authentication, and its NAP deployment checks for a series of health requirements, including making sure that the version of Norton AV is current.
Trusted Computing Group's TNC
TNC is composed of dozens of industry heavies (one wry observer calls it "everyone but Cisco") supporting a bunch of open standards. The good news is that the standards more or less map to the five requirements for network access control security mentioned earlier -- policy definition, detection, assessment, enforcement and remediation. The bad news is that not all standards have been defined, and woefully few products support much of the alphabet soup that is required to actually implement a solution.
The key ingredients with TNC are support for RADIUS and 802.1X authentication servers and protocols, along with a trusted hardware chip and software in the endpoints.
"This isn't a forklift upgrade," says Steve Hanna, the cochair of TNC and a product manager at Juniper Networks. This differs notably from Cisco's approach, which uses the Cisco ACS authentication servers.
A PKI chip, called the Trusted Platform Module (TPM), extends authentication features that help to secure laptops against unauthorized users--such as thieves or someone who simply finds a lost laptop--in a hardware implementation that thwarts potential compromises to software.
"You just can't trust software these days because a PC could have been compromised by a zero-day vulnerability or by something a user downloaded via the Internet. The only ways to detect this is through trusted hardware," says Hanna. A number of laptop vendors including Dell, Fujitsu, Hewlett-Packard and Lenovo, already include trusted hardware modules in their product lines.
Once authentication checks are satisfied, the trusted hardware routine passes control to a third-party software agent, which checks the device for policy compliance, working with the TNC architecture that handles network authentication and login access. As an open standard, TNC should potentially employ any enforcement mechanism.
Not surprisingly, TNC-compatible products are already available from Cisco competitor Juniper, which acquired Funk Software, makers of RADIUS server products.
SSL VPN weak spot
Missing from all three solutions is SSL VPN support: "Nobody has any product yet available in the [SSL] VPN space, and we can't support it yet. But we expect to see that coming quite soon," says TNC's Hanna.
SSL VPNs have a ways to go. Few offer support for more than a couple of antivirus scanners, and many don't go beyond Windows/IE combinations or scan for a connection prior to network login. Part of the problem is that most of the VPN vendors added support for endpoint security after they finished their first versions, and it shows. Nortel and Aventail, for example, have two different sets of access controls in their VPN product--one that supports endpoint security and one that doesn't. Many SSL VPN vendors are partnering with third-party endpoint security vendors-- a growing market that offers alternatives to NAC, NAP and TNC.
Can't wait?
While the marketing wars among Cisco, Microsoft and Trusted Computing Group heat up, enterprises are looking for solutions that work now, and, perhaps, support NAC, NAP and TNC as the paths to the future. Several vendors are shipping products that address at least some of the requirements for securing network access.
These products offer a wide range of checking and enforcement options to control both managed and unmanaged devices and give customers a lot of flexibility. Many offer login-, agent-, and ActiveX- or Java-based scanning to determine endpoint compliance, which you can mix and match according to your needs. And, instead of a single enforcement mechanism, these products increasingly offer the choice of DHCP, 802.1X, agent-based, inline appliance or NAC, so your enterprise does have options to match your environment. (For a representative list of products see "Choices, Choices & More Choices," at right)
Cisco, in fact, has a second approach that is not completely aligned with its own NAC architecture, called Clean Client Access, the result of its acquisition of Perfigo. It does agent-based endpoint assessment, client, policy management and remediation services.
No easy answer
The truth is that no single vendor has a complete solution that will lock down all of your endpoints and keep your resources safe. You'll need to find a product that will handle different security policies to protect critical network assets as well as those roaming laptops. And, unless you have a completely homogeneous network composed of Windows XP users running IE, you will need support for other operating systems and browsers. Despite all the wonderful claims, no one comes close to delivering a general-purpose endpoint solution that works with both agent and agentless technologies.
If you stick within the XP/IE realm, if all your users have administrator rights to their systems, and if you don't mind them downloading some form of Java or ActiveX application from their browser, then you can almost make things work with one of the third-party appliance products or by using VPN solutions from companies like Juniper and Aventail.
If Microsoft's NAP vision aligns with yours, get a head start by running the VPN quarantine in Windows ISA Server 2004--that will form the basis of the Longhorn code when it finally is delivered early next year.
And, if you have all your Cisco routers up to their current versions and can continue to live in an all-Cisco world, one of the NAC solutions from Cisco and its partners might work for you.
But if these limited scenarios aren't your situation, you have your work cut out for you to implement the best possible endpoint security solution. The best advice, as with all information security initiatives, is to thoroughly understand your enterprise and business requirements. Address these questions:
Who are your mobile employees, what OSes and security applications are they running, and how do they connect to the network?
Do consultants and vendors regularly access the network?
What is your network infrastructure and what enforcement/remediation mechanisms will it support? Is it homogeneous? Is it relatively new, with up-to-date firmware, or do you have legacy routers and switches that won't support network-based solutions?
Sorting out NAC, NAP and TNC is going to take some time, and you'll have to live with your decisions to secure endpoint access to your network. Choose the solution that best meets at least your most critical needs and aligns with your enterprise's plans for the future.

We must keep going and move fully into God's promises.
Unless we continually renew our minds and embrace a mindset to prosper, we can be captured in old ways of thinking and fail to move forward in God's cycle of blessing.
We must go beyond our current levels of celebration and religious ritual.
We must go beyond our way of "poverty" thinking and enter into a "harvest-multiplication" thought mode! Poverty has a voice that says that God is not able.
We must go beyond our debt mentality and know that the LORD can free us to accomplish His purposes.

I can't tell you all how amazing this book is. It's almost impossible to articulate into words. This mad, mad love between
the beautiful Ryan and Julia is turned up ten-fold in this third and final instalment, but with a twist that will knock
you sideways. Kahlen has hit the ball out of the literary park with 'A Love Like This.' You will experience every poignant
emotion from unyielding love and devotion, to total desolation, frustration and…heartbreak, so profound, so palpable
it will leave you breathless.
BOOK REVIEW: A Love Like This - (The Remembrance Trilogy, #3) - Kahlen Aymes
"I wanted every day of forever to spend in his arms, secure in the knowledge that he loved me in ways I couldn't comprehend and I loved him more than I could ever put into words. The love between us was too much and yet…not enough. If we died drowning in each other's arms, it would never be enough." - Julia
Plans for the future are finally falling into place for Ryan and Julia, as they embark on a new journey, experiencing the pleasures and sacrifices of matrimonial bliss.
Attending the wedding of Aaron and <I>his</I> Jenna is the icing on the cake. Both brothers now successful and thriving in medicine, both settled with the women they love so irrevocably.
There is only one thing that has ever, and continues, to come between them…
their careers.
Like passing ships in the night, Ryan and Julia have long established that time together is precious, but with Ryan enduring 80-hour weeks in the ER at St. Vincent's Hospital in downtown New York and Julia's career catapulting her to new heights at Vogue magazine in Manhattan, it was always going to be working against them.
Especially as they now yearn to start a family of there own, a baby to seal the bond of love they share - hoping it will further help them both to heal and come to terms with the loss of their firstborn many months ago.
Just as their dream plans start to become a possibility, Ryan and Julia's world is rocked off it's axis when Ryan comes under attack in the ER after trying to save the life of a young male who was involved in a gangland shooting. Trying desperately to thwart the criminals wielding deadly weapons while saving the life of the 16-year-old gang member was not something he could do alone. When the rival gang leader attacks, the last thing Ryan sees is Jane, his ER nurse as she shoves him out of the way and becomes victim to a fatal blow to her lower torso.
With Jane's life hanging in the balance, Ryan battles to stem the significant blood flow by pinching her artery closed until extra aid arrives, amid the realisation that this selfless woman had probably just saved his life.
When Jane learns of the devastating life-changing injury she has received, the only person she can confide in is Ryan, as he aids her in her recovery, both physically and emotionally. Swarming with guilt, Ryan tries his hardest to juggle gruelling work schedules, married life and…Jane.
But as Jane starts to gradually form a close friendship with Ryan, a wedge between Ryan and Julia starts to develop, especially when all the signs are evident to Julia that Jane feels more for her Husband than he is willing to accept or acknowledge.
With no room for a third party in this marriage, the clock is continuing to tick down, walls are starting to crumble and it's only a matter of time before the world as they know it, may just come crashing down around them…
Prepare yourselves readers, for this book is unlike the other two! Ryan and Julia are the strongest book characters I know when it comes to that unconditional, all encompassing love. These are two soul-mates who will always find their way back home to each-other, regardless of the many obstacles that have, up until now, been thrown amidst their path.
But, with book 3, Hold. On. Tight! Because this new and refreshing plot will have you experiencing Ryan and Julia in a whole new way.
We are still treated with double first person narrative, giving us, the reader, a front row seat to the inner thoughts, the undeniable passion, emotional turmoil, jealousy and upset that each individual character flits between, further capitalizing on the magic that is, Kahlen's writing.
She is the master of love scenes and emotional projection. When they hurt, you hurt. When they love, you love. When they act undesirably, you feel that disappointment and frustration. Because to me, Ryan and Julia are not just book characters anymore, they are friends, and as a friend there were times I wanted to jump in-between them and smack their heads together, then in the next breath hug the ever loving shit out of them.
I feel so privileged and thankful to Kahlen for letting me receive an ARC in exchange for an honest review and wow, she certainly pulled it out of the bag. A truly fitting end to a beautiful trilogy, and YES… I will put you out of your misery…
...THERE IS AN HEA! :)

Review of
A Love Like This By Kahlen Aymes
WARNING: Contains one very hot and very heart meltingly loveable leading man!!
Well the first word that springs to my mind when thinking about this book is 'WOW!', secondly, I would like to say that it made a really nice change to pick up a book (or in my case, my kindle) and fall into the depths of those emotions of that first 'one true love' bittersweet despair.
For those of us who have been fortunate enough to know what its like to be in love; to remember that moment when it completely consumes you mind, body and soul, where you can think of nothing and no-one else. Those inner turmoil of emotions that can switch in a moment from incandescent happiness and contentment to sudden love struck grief. This book reflects on how young love can be so beautiful and be so devastatingly difficult. It reflects on the sacrifices of love and compromises that come with it.
Ryan and Julia are soul mates, they have secretly loved each-other since College but remained Best Friends for 4 years. It's not until Ryan receives his acceptance letter to Harvard that the reality of their time and distance apart kicks in, and they finally succumb and admit to each-other their true feelings.
They soon embark on a very passionate love affair. Written in first person with both leading characters sharing equal space on the page. Kahlen Aymes has done a wonderful job in highlighting the difficulties that come with long distance relationships. Even though that love is so all consuming, it still proves a hardship even in the strongest of relationships.
The sexual encounters are steamy, but without being too explicitly graphic and seedy. Unlike some erotica novels, you can actually feel the love flow from the characters and jump out from the page and into your heart. Sounds whimsical I know, but while reading this book I have to admit I did have a silly grin on my face the whole way through, and it brought back those emotions that I felt as a lovesick late teenager (YA), much to the amusement of my husband!
However, without planting any spoilers, I wasn't quite prepared for the last couple of chapters and I ended the book with a huge lump in my throat and a stray tear (little buggar). I don't cry often while reading but the end of this particular book really got to me. So be warned, you may need a tissue or two!
The excerpt from the next book at the end was much appreciated, and I am looking forward to reading the second book in the series.
Due to the graphic sexual nature of this story, this is for mature readers only - 18+
So for you Fifty Shades fans who want something a little more heart-warming, with many I Love You's, then you really must try this book.

I absolutely loved this book!! Ms. Aymes is an amazing writer! she has a gift to just suck you into a story and give you an emotional roller coaster ride while still having the characters and what they go through feel REAL! read it in a couple of hours, just could not put it down! i wish i could give it 100 stars... I can't wait for the rest of the trilogy to be published!
"God, you're beautiful." The words tore from his throat in a low growl. "You leave me breathless. I'm...undone, Julia. there are no words to tell you how much I've missed you...how much I fucking love you."
To say this book left me breathless was probably an understatement, I probably should have invested in a ventilator and a blood pressure device because it shot through the roof. Not entirely due to the heartfelt and passionate love this book evokes but the heartbreak and emotional turmoil that also played a huge part in this second instalment.
For those of you who have read the first book, The Future of our Past, you will have prepared yourself for the opening of Don't Forget to Remember Me, well... If you are wise you would have. Automatically I was thrown back into that emergency room, and the urgency, terror and grief that Ryan is experiencing literally hits the reader like a train wreck. I actually forgot how incredibly talented Kahlen is as a writer, she has the ability to write emotion so profound that it will leave you gasping. Whether it is a beautifully written love scene, or one of absolute emotional turmoil, the words flow so effortlessly you can't help but get sucked in to all the drama that unfolds in this book.
Without trying to give away too much, this story again revolves around the two main characters, Julia and Ryan. After a devastating accident, Julia has to learn to find herself again, and Ryan is the key to her rehabilitation. However, this 'mad mad love' has a way of turning a sour situation into one that will one day again make sense.
Follow Ryan and Julia in their next chapter, and discover how two destined soul-mates always seem to find their way home.
OMG this book... this story.... omg!! Ryan omg.. Ryan... your pain... your soul... it was too much... it was soooo unfair.... but one thing never ever waivered... his love... his undying, no matter what love for Julia!
This book hit all the emotions it could probably hit... i mean just the frustration and heartache levels were amazing... and seeing the true story of TRUE LOVE unfold... there. are. no. words.
do yourself an incredible favor... stop... whatever you are doing and read these books!!!

Book one of the After Dark, Series
Dr. Angeline Hemming is a beautiful, sassy, no-nonsense type of girl who has risen from a difficult past to become one of Chicago's most successful and respected criminal profilers. In exchange for free commercials to promote her favorite charitable causes, Angel answers calls and gives relationship advice on a Friday night radio program.
Alexander Avery is a gorgeous and successful corporate genius who doesn't believe in love. When his girlfriend-of-convenience calls into Angel's program, he is furious with the show's host who doles out (what he considers) blind advice, without knowing all the facts… and he decides to give her a piece of his mind, and his side of the story!
When Angel informs Alex he's the one in need of a much-deserved lesson, all hell breaks loose as these two type-A personalities battle it out for control over minds and hearts, and yes, in bed. Not only are they fighting each other at every turn, but they are also struggling to uphold the convictions they each live by.
It's unclear who is stronger, but both must discover that to get what they desperately want, they may have to give a little… or a lot.
Sparks Fly … Lines Blur… Hearts Break
Alexander Avery is rich, powerful and the sexiest man Angeline Hemming has ever laid eyes on: a man like every woman dreams about. Angel is not immune to his sensual and ruthless pursuit, and Alex is intoxicated by the beautiful doctor; overwhelmed with desire like he's never known.
As one of Angel's profiling cases gets more and more dangerous, Alex finds himself filled with unfamiliar panic and emotional turmoil; his need to protect her goes against Angel's adamant insistence that she doesn't need his help. He isn't a man to sit on the sidelines when the woman he's obsessed with is threatened, so he takes control to protect her without telling her of his plans.
Angel's fortitude is shaken when her stalker invades not only her personal life but also those close to her… even when that someone is as powerful and seemingly untouchable as Alexander Avery. Professional ethics insist she keep the details or her work secret, even as their newfound closeness has her yearning to confide in him. But, as Angel's quest to protect her heart from Alex's
undeniable pull equals her need to keep him out of a dangerous situation, circumstances dictate a huge decision; which could have detrimental, and irreversible consequences for them both.
When danger threatens and jealousy reaches the boiling point, lies will be told and secrets kept… Even with the best intentions and the most undeniable connection … the deepest of loves will be tested.

Q: docker-compose run multiple commands for a service I am using docker on windows - version 18.03 (client)/18.05 (server). I have created docker-compose file for ELK stack. Everything is working fine. What I would like to do is, to install logtrail before kibana is started. I was thinking about copying logtrail*.zip first, then call install:
container_name: kibana
(...)
command:
  - docker cp kibana:/ ./kibana/logtrail/logtrail-6.7.1-0.1.31.zip
  - /bin/bash
  - ./bin/kibana-plugin install/logtrail-6.7.1-0.1.31.zip

But that doesn't look like right way as first of all it doesn't work, second of all I am not sure if I can call mutliple commands like I did and third of all I'm not sure if docker cp in command is even allowed on that stage of service creation

A: command:
- /bin/bash
- -c
- |
  echo "This is a multiline command"
  echo "See how I escape $$ sign"
  echo $$PATH

You can run multiple commands like above however you can not run docker cp as in your command.

A: You can run multiple commands for a service in docker compose by:
command: sh -c "command1 && command2 && command2"

A: THATS MY SOLUTION FOR THIS CASE:
#    OPTION 01:
#    command: >
#      bash -c "chmod +x /scripts/rs-init.sh
#      && sh /scripts/rs-init.sh"
#    OPTION 02:
#    entrypoint: [ "bash", "-c", "chmod +x /scripts/rs-init.sh && sh /scripts/rs-init.sh"]

A: If you're looking to install software David Maze's comment seems to be the standard path. If you want to actually run multiple commands look at the answer to this SO question Using Docker-Compose, how to execute multiple commands

When confronted with an aortic root aneurysm in a young patient, one of the most common etiologies is a connective tissue disorder (CTD, such as Marfan's, Loeys Dietz, and Ehlers-Danlos.) Aortitis is considered rare among young patients and can be easily missed in asymptomatic cases. Aortitis can be difficult to diagnose but is important to investigate during surgery because missing the diagnosis may affect late outcomes. Undertreated aortitis may progress beyond the treated segment. Our understanding of arteritis is improving, and it has been suggested that Giant Cell Arteritis (GCA) and Takayasu Arteritis (TAK) may represent an overlapping spectrum of disease. CTD, GCA, and TAK require lifelong surveillance and immunosuppressive treatment for active disease. However, Autoimmune Aortitis may be cured surgically. We describe two patients in their twenties with aortic root aneurysms who underwent valve sparing aortic root replacement. Both were found on histologic examination to have chronic aortitis. The cases presented here demonstrate the importance for surgeons to send aortic specimens for histologic review when performing aortic aneurysm repair.
Keywords: Aorta; Aneurysm (Root); Histology (Aortic); Pathology (Aortic); Surgery
A 27-year-old woman with a history of chronic back pain presented with an exacerbation. Computed tomography (CT) revealed a 4.5 cm ascending aortic aneurysm. Follow-up serial imaging showed diffuse dilation from the aortic root to the descending aorta with a 5.1 cm maximum diameter (Figure 1). Echocardiogram confirmed a tricuspid aortic valve with moderate-to-severe regurgitation. Family history was significant for a cerebral aneurysm in a cousin. There were no clinical signs suggestive of a CTD or vasculitis; and blood work revealed normal levels of inflammatory markers. She underwent a valve- sparing aortic root replacement with valve reimplantation (modified David's procedure); ascending aorta and aortic arch repair as well as a prophylactic first stage elephant trunk procedure. Operative findings included a chronic; focal proximal ascending aortic dissection with interval healing. Aortic tissue histopathologic examination showed chronic aortitis (Figure 2A and 2B). She was discharged home on post-operative day 10. Rheumatologic workup found no evidence of active arteritis in other vessels that necessitated treatment. Two years later; she underwent successful elephant trunk completion with a thoracic endovascular aortic repair.
A 23-year-old man presented with an incidentally found ascending aortic aneurysm during workup for a new heart murmur. Echocardiogram revealed a dilated aortic root and ascending aorta; and tricuspid aortic valve with trivial regurgitation. CT confirmed a proximal aortic aneurysm with 5.1 cm maximum diameter. There was no family history of aneurysms. He underwent a modified David's reimplantation procedure with an ascending aorta and hemi-arch repair. Operative findings were again significant for a healed chronic aortic root dissection. Histopathologic review of the aorta also noted a chronic aortitis (Figure 2C and 2D). The patient was discharged home on post operative day seven. Rheumatologic workup found no evidence of other vessel involvement and no indication for immunosuppressive therapy. He was doing well at his one year follow-up. The MRA showed a stable; well-healed aortic repair with no findings of arthritis; and a well functioning aortic valve with trivial regurgitation.
Movat Volume rendered 3D reconstruction CT scan images, case 1 (top) and case 2 (bottom).
Patients with asymptomatic aortitis and associated aneurysm are diagnosed after surgery based on histopathologic review demonstrating giant cells and other features of vasculitis [1]. These two cases demonstrate that it is imperative to send aortic tissue for histologic evaluation after aortic aneurysm repair; particularly for asymptomatic patients [2,3]. Aortitis may be grossly underestimated in younger patients because specimens are not routinely reviewed. In a study involving 513 patients aged 16-85 years undergoing an ascending aortic aneurysm repair; 57 were diagnosed with aortitis after histologic review [4].
Common etiologies of aortitis include GCA; TAK; and Autoimmune Aortitis. However; other important causes include infection; primary vasculitides such as Cogan's syndrome and Behcet's disease; as well as inflammatory diseases with spondyloarthropathies; rheumatoid arthritis; and sarcoidosis. Both of these cases show large vessel arteritis with laminar necrosis surrounded by lymphohistiocytic infiltrates and multinucleated giant cells in the media. These features are typically described in GCA which usually affects a much older population but are occasionally seen in younger patients with isolated vasculitis. The cases differ in their extent of aortic involvement; and their operations were tailored to these preoperative imaging findings.
Histopathologic features alone are not specific to predict isolated versus systemic vasculitis. While it confirms a large vessel vasculitis diagnosis; further classification requires clinical correlation and radiologic investigations. A histologic diagnosis of chronic aortitis with giant cells encompasses GCA; TAK; and Autoimmune Aortitis. GCA has a propensity to affect external carotid arteries. It can present early with symptoms; but late and more serious complications; including aneurysms and dissections; are often detected incidentally during imaging for other reasons or during autopsy. Aortic involvement has been found in up to 18% of asymptomatic cases [3]. It is not surprising that both cases described here had evidence of focal dissection found incidentally during surgery. Patients with GCA are 17.3 times more likely to develop a thoracic aortic aneurysm and 2.4 times more likely to have an isolated abdominal aortic aneurysm than normal controls [4].
It has been speculated that TAK and GCA are not two distinct diseases but represent part of a spectrum within a single entity [1] Compared to GCA; TAK is known to have a younger age of onset; a potential predilection for Asian women and aortic involvement. One study questioned these clinical distinctions and found that patients with GCA and TAK do have similar signs; symptoms; and imaging abnormalities suggesting that the difference in diagnosis may be due to bias [1].
Autoimmune Aortitis; on the other hand; is a disease that is localized to the thoracic aorta; and may not require medical therapy after surgery [5]. The mean age of onset in our early series was 63 years [2]. These patients are unique because their disease can be surgically cured before the histologic diagnosis is made; as was the case for our second patient. In an early series; we found that these patients usually did not require any further intervention; but most patients were older and late follow-up was limited [2]. In our more recent experience; we have found that many of these patients do require later thoracic aortic operations and immunosuppressive therapy does little to slow this progression [5].
Aortitis was also commonly associated with aortic valve disease in our recent series; but the etiology of valve dysfunction was due to mixed morphologic findings. The aortic cusp tissue was healthy appearing in both of these patients despite root dilatation so the intraoperative decision in these young patients was to spare the valve by modified reimplantation. Little is known about how this disease process affects the aortic valve. Time will tell whether the surgery proves to be definitive treatment in both of these patients. Given their young age and the limitation of our knowledge about the etiology of thoracic aneurysms; surveillance MRA of the thoracic aorta at least every five years was recommended.
The post-operative Histopathologic diagnosis of aortitis should be followed by comprehensive rheumatologic evaluation to rule out other vessel involvement and assess for symptoms or signs of an underlying vasculitis or CTD. These patients may benefit from additional medical treatment including corticosteroids or other immunosuppressive to prevent new aneurysms or further progression of vasculitis. Our cases demonstrate the vital importance of histopathologic assessment of surgically respected thoracic aortic tissue to facilitate comprehensive management of aortitis.
Movat pentachrome stained sections of aortas from patient 1(A&B) and patient 2 (C&D). Low power magnification shows similar histology in both cases with marked medial destruction and characteristic foci of laminar medial necrosis (arrows, A&C). There is reactive intimal thickening and mild fibrosis of the adventitia, and multinucleated giant cells are common around segments of necrotic media seen on higher magnification (B&D).

Q: Argument of type 'any[]' is not assignable to parameter of type '(value: [any, Campaign[]]) => void' Hi I am recieving a typescript error in my code . following is my code .

the error i am receiving is
Argument of type 'any[]' is not assignable to parameter of type '(value: [any, Campaign[]]) => void'.
  Type 'any[]' provides no match for the signature '(value: [any, Campaign[]]): void'.ts(2345)
Cannot find name 'campaigns'.ts(2304)

the method signature for translateService.get is as following
get(key: string | Array<string>, interpolateParams?: Object): Observable<string | any>;

the method call flightsService.getCampaignsToClone(this.flight.id)
is
getCampaignsToClone(flightId: string){
    let campaigns: Campaign[] = [

the I code wants to achieve is first resolve the property 'CLONE_FLIGHT' &  loads campaigns objects, then in the subscribe i want to call a modal dialog box. However i am getting the above error
i am newbie to typescript and observables.
appreciate any help
thank you so much
prasanth

A: it was syntax problem
i should have written like this
combineLatest(
  this.translateService.get('CLONE_FLIGHT', { item: this.flight.name}),
  this.flightsService.getCampaignsToClone(this.flight.id)
).subscribe( ([header, campaigns]) => {
  console.log(header);
