FUNDACIÓN ORTEGA-MARAÑÓN (FOM)
Created to promote the legacy of two of the most influential Spanish intellectuals of the 20th century, the Fundación José Ortega y Gasset- Gregorio Marañón is a private, non-profit institution devoted to educational and cultural activities, debate and research.
Based in Madrid and Toledo and with direct presence in Mexico, Argentina, Colombia and Peru, since its foundation in 1978, the FOM has been widely recognized as a major player in the promotion of Social Sciences and Humanities across the Spanish and Latin American cultural sphere.
Under the honorary presidency of His Majesty King Juan Carlos I of Spain, and with a Board of Trustees that reunites some of the most distinguished personalities in Spain's cultural, political, humanities, and business arenas, the FOM offers a unique platform for international students.
José Ortega y Gasset (1883-1955) is the most important philosopher of the 20th century and one of the most outstanding intellectuals on the European scene at the time. Along with the many topics he addressed and his many different ways of expression, he developed a true philosophical system, centered on the analysis of human life as a radical reality and the elaboration of a new concept of reason. A master of the contemporary Spanish essay and a school creator, Ortega put Spanish thinkers on the map during his time and he had a decisive influence in the Spanish-American world. He undertook multiple cultural enterprises, such as the Revista de Occidente (1923) and his numerous publications.
Gregorio Marañón (1887-1960) was a doctor, scientist, historian and humanist. His scientific and experimental work focused on the fight against infectious diseases and endocrinology, where he was a pioneer. His medical and humanistic treatments reached many different journals and were translated into numerous languages. He broadened his field of work into social and political issues by getting involved in the publication of articles about those topics without ever leaving his medical and research activities.

The Midterm Elections are over and as the pundits were saying right up until the last votes were counted, we are looking at a divided government. The initial reaction from many is that this is going to result in a bad case of gridlock. Maybe so, but oddly enough, I have read the words of some people who think the glass is in fact half full.

Trailer Watch: 'JESSABELLE' Reminds Us That Bathtubs Are Evil
As I wrote in my review of Extraterrestrial earlier this week, I'm not really here for the mediocre quality of modern American horror we've been getting these days. But I received the above promo art for the upcoming Liongate film, JESSABELLE, today and just like that I'm sucked back into the vortex. Partly because it reminds me of a lesser version of the horrifying Ringu (The Ring) films, but mostly because Joelle Carter is in the film. And as a loyal Justified fan, I feel inclined to support her film.
Carter plays the deceased mom of the title character (shown above, played by Sarah Snook), who's returned from the dead to give her daughter a fatal warning. More in the synopsis below:
From the mastermind producer of Paranormal Activity and Insidious comes the ghostly tale of Jessabelle. Returning to her childhood home in Louisiana to recuperate from a horrific car accident, Jessabelle (Sarah Snook of Sleeping Beauty) comes face to face with a long-tormented spirit that has been seeking her return -- and has no intention of letting her escape.
JESSABELLE was directed by Kevin Greutert, who helmed Saw VI and Saw 3D: The Final Chapter (I hopped off the bandwagon after the first few Saw films, so maybe you can offer some insight on Greutert's two installments). Robert Ben Garant (Night at the Museum, Reno 911!) penned the screenplay.
The trailer (featured below) is intriguing, at best. But Jason Blum, the producer referred to in the synopsis, usually has a way of adding his own twist on old concepts--for better or worse. So hopefully this one doesn't disappoint.
Watch the trailer:
JESSABELLE opens in theaters nationwide on August 29th.

This is one regular guy's story on a once in a lifetime journey. A solo backpacking trip from the Alantic ocean to the Pacific ocean on the American Discovery Trail. No planes, trains or automobiles, no hotels just a tent and my two feet.
I will be documenting the trip as I go with a blog and speaking on radio shows along the way. This is a trip across America to see it in a way very few people get to to see it anymore and to share the experience with others.
I left an office behind, now I will be leaving a roof behind for a time as well. For over half a year I will be living in a tent and backpacking across the country rain or shine. This is where I will be sharing my experiences and by Murphy's law everything else that happens.
If you are located along my route and have a place I could set up my tent for the night I would gratefully accept. Just send me an email at tentandtwofeet@gmail.com. It doesn't have to be much, just a safe place and hopefully dry but I will take wet..

I want to create and trace a geometric network in model builder with python but it does not work.
SyntaxError: invalid syntax (create_network.py, line 16) Failed to execute (CreateGeometricNetwork ).
Are the settings and the code right? The first four entries are definded as required inputs, the last one ("Network_Net") is defined as a derived output.
It doesn't look like you have the variable 'networkdataset' defined. I believe this should be 'FeatureDataset'. Also, there should be a comma after the first variable (i.e. FeatureDataset, "network_Net", .....).
I changed the code so that the Sccript only creates the geometric network, know it always crashes ArcMapw when I start the execution.
FeatureClasses = "'" + FeatureClass1 + " COMPLEX_EDGE NO;" + FeatureClass2 + " SIMPLE_JUNCTION YES;" + FeatureClass3 + "SIMPLE_JUNCTION YES" + "'"

2021 Yenko/SC Silverado Off-Road is a lifted, 800-hp off-roader
The Yenko name was made famous by the Pennsylvania dealership that created special Chevrolet muscle cars in the 1960s, but New Jersey-based Specialty Vehicle Engineering (SVE) has revived the name for use on modern Chevys. The firm's latest is the 2021 Yenko/SC Silverado Off-Road, which combines serious power and off-road hardware.
The pickup truck builds on the Yenko/SC Silverado announced earlier this year. It boasts the same modified 6.2-liter LT1 V-8 as that truck, with 800 horsepower and 720 pound-feet of torque. That output is achieved with a supercharger, forged internals (pistons and crankshaft), ported heads, and a high-flow stainless steel exhaust system. The engine is coupled to a 6-speed automatic transmission, which is upgraded to handle the extra power. Brembo 6-piston front brake calipers and Duralife 16.1-inch vented rotors provide stopping power.
As the name suggests, the Off-Road version is designed for excursions beyond the pavement. It gets a BDS 4.0-inch lift kit, Fox shock absorbers, a heavy duty rear sway bar, and 20-inch wheels with Nitto Ridge Grappler LT295/60R20 tires.
2021 Yenko/SC Silverado Off-Road
The Silverado also features some minor cosmetic tweaks, including a vented hood and Yenko graphics. Each truck also gets a numbered badge and key fobs, and a manufacturer's certificate of origin.
Production is limited to 50 trucks, which will be sold through Chevy dealers. Pricing hasn't been announced, but SVE said the truck comes with a 3-year/36,000-mile warranty.
In addition to the Silverado, SVE sells modified Camaros, which are more typically associated with the Yenko name. The company also brought back the GMC Syclone, using the current GMC Canyon, with a 750-hp V-8 in place of the 1991 original's turbocharged V-6.

Requiem for the Republican Party
By Former Rep. Steve Israel (D-N.Y.), opinion contributor — 07/25/18 10:00 AM EDT
The views expressed by contributors are their own and not the view of The Hill
View Latest Opinions >>
It was a nice party while it lasted.
Republicans once stood for a hawkish foreign policy. But 79 percent of Republican voters said they approved of President Donald Trump Donald TrumpPredictions of disaster for Democrats aren't guarantees of midterm failure A review of President Biden's first year on border policy Hannity after Jan. 6 texted McEnany 'no more stolen election talk' in five-point plan for Trump MORE's dovish coddling of Russian President Vladimir Putin. Suddenly, the skepticism of Dwight Eisenhower, Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford, Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush has melted into a gooey infatuation with a Russian leader who kills and imprisons his political opponents, invades neighboring democracies, and whose collaborators likely authorized the shooting down of a civilian jetliner over Ukrainian airspace.
Republicans once unabashedly supported the military. Now they seem fine with the public whipping of our NATO partners while Trump butters up Putin. In Reagan's soaring defense of freedom, he famously proclaimed to the premier of the old Soviet Union, "Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall." In Trump's defense of Putin, he stated infamously, "I hold both countries responsible. I think that the United States has been foolish. I think we've all been foolish. I think we're all to blame."
How is that for a clear and consistent vision of a Western democratic order? Republicans were once the party of law and order and unequivocally supportive of our intelligence agencies. But now they sound like 1960s radical Abby Hoffman who said, "No government, no FBI, no judge, no jailer is ever gonna make me say uncle."
The death of Republican ideals is not limited to national security. Now Republicans are taking their last gasps on their historic belief in free markets. Their president has ignited a trade war with Canada, Europe and China. The party opposing taxes and spending is about to increase spending where it hurts the most: consumer products.
After the summit between the United States and Russia in Helsinki, the pundits increasingly asked, "What does Putin have on Trump?" Perhaps another question is, "What does Trump have on Republicans?" Why would so many willingly surrender to this daily bulldozing of their bedrock principles? The answer is their political survival.
Republicans are not actually swooning over Trump. They are trying to hold on to their districts in a buffeting storm of an election. Many are caught between their own principles and a fervid base ready to inflict punishment on any Republican who is not sufficiently supportive of Trump.
Why? Because, for years, many Republican strategists fed their base a daily diet of fear and loathing. They have won elections by tearing down institutions and immigrants, by telling voters that if ISIS does not get them then ebola will, and by enabling economic and tax policy that spectacularly widened the income divide and hardened resentments.
Indeed, Republican leaders rightly rebuked Trump's kumbaya with the Kremlin. House Speaker Paul Ryan Paul Davis RyanHow Kevin McCarthy sold his soul to Donald Trump On The Trail: Retirements offer window into House Democratic mood Stopping the next insurrection MORE, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell Addison (Mitch) Mitchell McConnellBiden stiff arms progressives on the Postal Service Biden clarifies any Russian movement into Ukraine 'is an invasion' The Hill's Morning Report - Presented by Facebook - Biden talks, Senate balks MORE and others expressed, in proper Washington parlance, their disagreements with the president's moral equivocations. But it may be too late. They have planted the invasive seeds of demagoguery, and now they cannot prune them with a few soft "tsktsks."
I never agreed with the Grand Old Party on everything when I served as a member of Congress. But I found accord with it on promoting a Western democratic order in the world, maintaining a strong military to defend freedom, and opposing authoritarianism. I supported the global leadership of the Bush administration in combating AIDS.
I hope that party is not over and replaced by a frothing coalescence of our worst instincts. I hope that real Republicans will take to heart the words, not of Andrew Jackson, whose portrait hangs in the Oval Office of their president, but the singer Jackson Brown, "Oh won't you stay, just a little bit longer, oh please please please stay, just a little bit more."
Steve Israel Steven (Steve) J. IsraelRedistricting reform key to achieving the bipartisanship Americans claim to want Biden seeks to avoid referendum with sharp attacks on GOP Stopping the next insurrection MORE represented New York in Congress for 16 years. He served as chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee from 2011 to 2015. He is a novelist and author of the new book, "Big Guns," a satire of the gun lobby.

How is your personality linked to the way you write stories?
My placement was at the Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience at UCL. We have been investigating whether there is a link between personality traits and the way people add emotion to neutral stimulus.
We investigated this by recruiting participants who would be the writers of stories about neutral words; before they began to write stories they were given the Big 5 Inventory personality test. This tested participants on the five main personality traits: openness, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness and neuroticism. The participants were told to work with the first idea for a story that came to them and that the stories had to be at least three lines long.
A second group of participants were also recruited who would rate these stories for creativity, arousal and emotional valence. This group of participants were given 25 randomised stories written by the other group of participants; however they did not know that they were written by previous participants.
In our results we found a surprising link between openness and creativity, open people are usually more curious, original and open to new ideas. However our results found that more open people wrote less creative stories. An explanation for this is that more open people are open in real life situations rather than in fiction, whereas less open people are not creative in real-life so they compensate for it in fiction.
Also from our results we found that as expected, the participants rated highly for neuroticism wrote more unhappy stories. People who are rated highly for neuroticism are more anxious, irritable and temperamental. This means that the stories that they wrote were more unpleasant than other participants, showing that there is a link between neuroticism and creating negative stories from neutral words.
Overall, there is a link between personality traits and people's perception of neutral words as two traits showed a strong link, however not all personality traits were reflected in how people wrote stories about neutral words.

Upcoming Bereavement Support Group Offerings
Grief following the death of a central person in your life is one of the hardest things you will ever have to bear. It is painful, isolating, and often scary. To be newly bereaved in these unprecedented times of great uncertainty and fear is to have your grief compounded in ways one could never have imagined.
Our bereavement support groups are offered at no charge and assist individuals who may be dealing with issues of sadness, grief, depression, anger, guilt, or any other related feelings accompanying the death of a loved one. They are not therapy groups, but rather, support groups where individuals can share their feelings and experiences in a caring and safe environment.
Please note that, in our experience, having at least 2-3 months time between the loss of your loved one and starting a support group is important in order to find the group most helpful. If you would like bereavement support sooner, please call (207) 289-3640 or email us to schedule individual grief counseling until the timing is better to participate in a group. Thank you for understanding.
During this time of social distancing, Hospice of Southern Maine will be offering some online bereavement support groups via Zoom. Zoom is a secure video-conferencing platform that Hospice of Southern Maine staff can use for virtual face-to-face conversations with patients and families. Zoom is free, and it can be used on your smartphone or your computer.
Our bereavement support groups can accommodate up to 10 people. Groups will be held once a week for 90 minutes and will run for 8 weeks. We ask that participants try to attend every session if possible.
We care about your loss and consider it a privilege to be of service.

Senior brother sees Brother Ji for the first time in a while and is shocked to find out that he has lost his eyes. Brother Ji tells him that he's here with Lei Jing Hong and swears that the Pili Sect did not harm Ru Ge.
Later, Ru Ge leaves to see senior brother and Brother Ji when she heard about his arrival from You Qin Hong. They have a tearful reunion knowing that they are both alive. They talk about Xun Yi before Ru Ge changes the subject because Brother Ji was getting agitated. He then tells her about Qinglong Hall's allegiance to their ex-Chief and that if she reveals that she's alive, then they will have hope as well as Pili Sect will be revived. She tells him that she can't tell them yet as she's waiting for the perfect opportunity to tell them. She goes to explain her plan for Brother Ji to return to the Flaming Hills to work with Brother Yi who still believes she's dead.
Next, Ru Ge tells Yin Xue about Brother Ji because she was in a happy mood. He becomes comforted at the fact that the people close to her are alive and he can leave with no worries. She becomes disappointed at knowing that Yin Xue will be leaving for his sect soon and the fact that she can't follow him since she's the leader of her sect. She then tells him of her plan for Brother Ji.
Afterwards, she says her goodbye to Brother Ji, "Be careful". Yin Xue is also there and asks to speak with senior brother alone. He tells him that he's going to tell him how to fight against Anhe Palace.
Meanwhile, Brother Yi seems ambitious to take over Zhan Feng's residence and orders his soldier to make preparations. Then, he gets news of Brother Ji's arrival and he quickly goes to see him. Brother Ji makes a pitiful entrance, garnering concern from Brother Yi. The Third-Chief then tells Brother Yi about "what happened" as she blames Lei Jing Hong and Anhe Palace for Brother Ji's current state. She also tells them that she doesn't know about anything else as she doesn't dare to ask for more information from Brother Ji.
Later at night, knowing Brother Yi is watching from afar, Third-Chief and Brother Ji continue on their act. She tells him how Brother Yi recommended him to become the Sect Leader but Brother Ji does not seem to be in the mood. Brother Yi then goes into the room and tells him that he should become the Sect Leader. Brother Ji becomes agitated because he feels he's not fit especially since he can't see anymore. Brother Yi then leaves knowing that he can't be persuaded.
Soon, he goes to see Zhan Feng who was captured by him in the previous episode. Zhan Feng seems to have been tortured and hims arms are chained up. Brother Yi tells Zhan Feng that he's soon to become the Sect Leader but Zhan Feng says that he's not suitable for the position. Brother Yi knows that he's not suitable and then says that Ying Yi will be sent to Anhe Palace. He then brings her in and she runs straight to Zhan Feng and hugs him. He then quietly asks her whether she told Brother Yi about Ru Ge yet and she shakes her head, "I didn't say that she is still alive". Hearing this, Zhan Feng smiles and they both say their final goodbyes, "Look after yourself".
Night falls and Xun Yi with her people goes to meet Brother Yi and Ying Yi at a forest. They then escort Ying Yi back to Anhe Palace but before they get there, Xun Yi tells Ying Yi that since she's a pitiful person, she doesn't need to be brought to Anhe Palace. She gives her a chance to leave and escape. However, Ying Yi just walk straight towards the lake and drowns herself.
The next day at the Flaming Hills, Brother Yi goes to meet the ex-Chief of Qinglong Hall to tell him that he's about to become the Sect Leader. While he's talking and trying to make himself seem like a good person, the ex-Chief of Qinglong Hall remains quiet but then opens his mouth saying that he shouldn't take what isn't his and shouldn't hurt other people.
Meanwhile, Dao Wu Xia gets a message that Brother Yi will be the Sect Leader and sends his congratulations. He then says that it is a pity about Zhan Feng but Dao Lie Xiang will have plenty of opportunities to marry well again because of their high status. She tells him that she's not interested. He then tells her that she must accompany him to congratulate Brother Ji for his new position later.
Later, Lei Jing Hong and Ru Ge sees Ying Yi's dead body which was washed up at the lake. She becomes worried about Zhan Feng because he was with Ying Yi but Lei Jing Hong tells her that they must leave. However, Ru Ge goes back to the dead body to untie the ropes holding her wrists and pays some money to one of the villagers to help bury her body, "I find this woman pitiful. Can you take some of these money and help with her funeral".
Afterwards, Ru Ge tells them that she believes that Ying Yi's death is to do with Anhe Palace. She becomes worried for Zhan Feng and Yin Xue tells them that they don't know An Yeluo's character as he can be unpredictable.
Other Sect leaders arrive at the Flaming Hills to congratulate Brother Yi. The ex-Chief of Qinglong Hall goes to see Zhan Feng and releases his chains that were holding him captive. Zhan Feng tells him that he shouldn't save him but he replies that this is ordered by their Sect Leader. Hearing this, Zhan Feng asks whether Ru Ge is back and gets an affirmative. Although the ex-Chief is here to heal Zhan Feng, he stops him saying that Ru Ge should leave because its too dangerous for her, "Bring her away!". However, ex-Chief says that she is not in danger as she has all the disciples from the Qinglong Hall behind her.
Brother Yi, dressed in his chiefly clothes, goes to receive his new title. Everyone congratulates him and even Anhe Palace has sent in congratulatory gifts. Huang Cong arrives at the entrance with Ru Ge and Lei Jing Hong disguised as her men. She brings them in after sending out the maids from Anhe Palace. Brother Yi tries to put her in her place by saying that he's the Sect Leader and she's in his territory. However, she openly opposes him and brings out the Flaming Hills token to his surprise. Ru Ge then uses this chance to come out and face him, "Aren't you happy to see that your Sect Leader is alive?". He quickly congratulate her for coming back safely and she tells him that he needs to be punished for harming the Old Sect Leader, harming her and framing the Pili Sect. However, he tells her that she has no evidence but then Zhan Feng comes in as the evidence.
Dao Wu Xia then says that since its their Sect's affair, he has no business and proceeds to leave. However, Ru Ge stops him saying that he needs to be here while she proves that the Pili Sect is innocent, "Hence, everyone needs to be here". Lei Jing Hong then reveals himself saying that his sect is innocent.
Ru Ge then brings the attention back to Brother Yi who admits his guilt. She then tells him that since he admits it, it is a death sentence. Before the guards takes him away he says that he has something to say, "What if the person I killed was an evil person?" This angers Ru Ge as he is clearly framing her father as a villain but he does not stop. He uses the rumours of her father killing Zhan Feng's father to help his case and to make Zhan Feng think twice about helping Ru Ge.
Yin Xue, covering his face, then arrives, "You spoke wrong". He continues to clear up the misunderstanding surrounding Ru Ge's father and Zhan Feng's father and brings out his Eternal Sect token so that they can believe him as witness. As he cleared up the rumours, Ru Ge then publicly states that Brother Yi is therefore her father's murderer and the Pili Sect is hereby declared innocent to the crimes that were framed against them. She then dismisses everyone because now she has to deal with the internal affairs of her sect. Even Dao Wu Xia leaves Brother Yi to himself, "This if your family sect's affair and is inappropriate for me to help you".
Brother Yi immediately kneels and admits his fault in front of Ru Ge, "Do you think I will forgive you for killing my father?". He then tries to run away but is caught by Ru Ge's rope. Zhan Feng even joins in to break his knee, stopping Brother Yi from running away. Ex-Chief of Qinglong Hall then throws him into prison and Brother Yi taunts him by saying "Do you know who killed Die Yi?". He points to himself saying that it was him, and says that he hates the Old Leader for giving him Qinglong Hall and him nothing. Also, the fact that Die Yi doesn't like him but the ex-Chief pushed his buttons even further.
Later, he tells Ru Ge that he plans to leave and asks for her blessing. Uncle Murong then comes back to Flaming Hills and tries to persuade ex-Chief to stay but he remains adamant on leaving. He is persuaded and Ru Ge says that she will bring up Flaming Hill's prestige within three years and become number 1 again.
Next, Brother Ji goes to congratulate Ru Ge with Lei Jing Hong and Feng Huang. Altogether with Yin Xue, they go to drink as they talk about happy matters. Zhan Feng arrives but doesn't dare to get closer. Feng Huang spots him and everyone else sees him. Ru Ge immediately says "Don't let him in" and explains that she doesn't want to see him at her courtyard before leaving and Yin Xue follows her closely behind. He tries to bring up her mood and says that she should give him a chance to say something to her for her dad's sake.
Afterwards, Dao Wu Xia informs An Yeluo about what happened at the Flaming Hills. He becomes confused that Yin Xue's master came and helped Ru Ge but he doesn't pay much heed to it. Dao Wu Xia then says that he's trying to find an opportunity to help Brother Yi saying that if he's still alive, there's a chance for them to take over the Flaming Hills.
Later, Lei Jing Hong with Feng Huang goes to see Brother Ji to say goodbye. Brother Ji tells him to not leave as its safe here and that there will be no protection when he leaves the Flaming Hills. We see that their relationship has become close and so, Brother Ji toasts wine to him to wish for his safety and for a chance to see each other again.
Ru Ge goes to wish him goodbye and is worried that they will be in danger since its late at night. However, he says that they're fine. Huang Cong then comes in saying that she's also leaving for the palace and can escort Lei Jing Hong for some parts of his journey. Then, they bid their goodbyes for next time.


Time to fill up those passport pages!
When we think about our yearly resolutions, travelling always ranks high on our list. Whether you're planning to explore a foreign land or somewhere familiar, the excitement you get from travelling is something everyone wishes to have all year round. We have twelve months in a year to experience the world around us. So, pack your things and follow our calendar favourites to fill up those pages in your passport.
Let us begin the first chapter of the year with something light and easy. Enliven with warm sunshine and picturesque landscapes, New Zealand is where natural wonders come to life. They have unperturbed rainforest, gorgeous national parks, and tranquil lakes to set the tone for the New Year.
Set your sights on Queenstown and the Northern Island where a variety of natural wonders such as the Glowworm Cave and Lake Tekapo await. Our compilation of New Zealand travel guides is filled with inspiring notes. Not forgetting, the variety of Muslim-friendly eateries you can savour in Auckland.
It's easy to be enchanted by a country that has it all: lip-smacking delicacies, lively street markets, cultural attractions, and friendly smiles. Whether it's a weekend in Bangkok or a relaxing trip to Krabi, the sun shines the brightest in February.
Bangkok, Krabi, and Phuket remain our top destinations to visit in Thailand, and proven by our popular compilations of Thailand travel guides. Wait till you see the halal som tam, seafood tom yam, and mango sticky rice we discovered in our halal food guide.
With auburn and golden leaves decorating the sidewalks, everyone enjoys a visit to Australia during the autumn season. Paired with cooler temperatures and a fair chance of sunshine, you can continue to take your pace nice and slow in Melbourne or Sydney.
Whether you prefer a family holiday or an outdoor adventure, there are plenty of reasons to organise a trip down under and our Australia travel guides are here to encourage you further! If you're solely in town for their cafe culture and brunches, there is a range of Muslim-friendly eateries in Australia waiting to be discovered.
Let's round up the first quarter with something idyllic like a romantic honeymoon in Maldives. With clear skies and bright sunshine as your holiday companions, we recommend clearing out your April schedule for a weekend-long trip here. Good news for water sports enthusiasts, it is also the perfect time for scuba diving and snorkelling.
Do you prefer to stay the night in an overwater villa or a gorgeous resort? Let our Maldives travel guides suggest the best luxury and budget-friendly check-ins for you. Just be prepared for the amazing photos you're about to see.
When someone mentions Japan and your mind wanders off to sakura-adorned scenery, you're not alone. It is one of the few destinations in the world where you can marvel at the beauty of cherry blossoms up close. In May, visit Sapporo, Iwate or Aomori to spot the locals taking a romantic boat ride or hanging out with their loved ones over a hanami picnic.
This year, make it your resolution to go on a cherry blossom chase the way Mikhail did or sightseeing at your own pace with our Japan travel guides. Remember to savour all of the Muslim-friendly wagyu beef, shabu-shabu, and ramen that you can find from our Japan food guide!
For a mid-year resolution, let your adventurous spirit run free in the cultural temples of Cambodia. In June, travellers can expect short heavy showers that keep the country cool along with a chance of sunshine. If adrenaline is what you need, we have demonstrated on how you can make the most of your Siem Reap adventure.
Whether you're in Indonesia for a seaside getaway in Bali, a shopping escapade in Bandung, or a city break in Jakarta, it's easy to lose count of the reasons why Indonesia is oh-so-wonderful. When you're in town, go ahead and punctuate your itinerary with visits to the Borobudur temple in Yogyakarta, Mount Bromo in East Java, the Uluwatu temple in Bali, and Mount Rinjani in Lombok.
With so much to see, we make your travel planning easier with a compilation of highlights in our Indonesia travel guides. If you're secretly craving for nasi padang and gurame goreng, we managed to incorporate some eatery suggestions in our halal food guide in Indonesia.
The perks of having Malaysia and Singapore neighbouring one another is that you can visit them both. Be inspired by our Malaysian travel checklist that will lead you to street art in Penang, the orangutans in Sabah, the theme parks in Johor, and more!
Then, make your way south with our ultimate Singaporean attractions checklist. One of the best activities to do in Singapore are visiting the polar bears in Singapore Zoo, exploring the SkyPark roof on Marina Bay Sands, and admiring the Supertree Grove at Marina Bay Sands.
If you have more time to explore these two great countries, make the best of your trip with our Malaysia travel guides and Singapore travel guides. Did we mention the amazing number of Muslim-friendly delicacies waiting for you in Malaysia and Singapore too?
As the weather starts to cool in anticipation of autumn, September is the month to create amazing travel memories in France. Explore this scenic destination by getting up close to everyone's favourite Eiffel Tower, the iconic Notre Dame de Paris church, the century-old Palace of Versailles, and the Louvre that houses the great Mona Lisa painting.
If you wish to follow the footsteps of Elaine and Suzana in their previous Parisian trip, be inspired by their food adventure here, but that's not all you will find in our halal food guide in France. Sightseeing is the best way to burn off those calories and we recommend walking to these gorgeous attractions in France.
Keep your jackets on when in China during this time because the weather gets a lot cooler than most days. Flourished with fall foliage, sightseeing is every traveller's favourite thing to do here. Remember to visit the Forbidden City in Beijing, the Terracotta Army in Xi'an, the Jiuzhai Valley National Park in Sichuan, and the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding in Chengdu.
Visiting Shanghai Disneyland and admiring the Great Mosque of Xi'an are some of the things we love about China and it's evident from our travel guide dedicated to this cultural destination.
Second to spring, we love the autumn scenery in South Korea during the month of November. The last few weeks of autumn comes with cooler weather and a touch of sunshine. Some of the best attractions to visit this time of the year are Seoraksan National Park in Gangwon, Namsan Mountain in Seoul, Nami Island in Gangwon-do, and more.
If you love everything about Busan, Jeju, and Seoul, we have plenty of South Korea travel guides for your travel inspirations. Apart from the popular kim chi, find out where you can find Muslim-friendly patbingsu, spicy eomuk, beef bulgogi, and jja jang bap from our halal food guides in South Korea.
Why stay at home with Christmas classic re-runs when you can board a place to the States for the winter holiday? New York City and Chicago have the best Christmas decorations and festive parties around, and Colorado is a great spot for skiing trips as well.
Go ahead and follow our travel guides in the United States for awesome travel inspirations in San Francisco, New York, and Portland. Food-wise, there are a number of halal-friendly eateries in New York to try too.
Now that you've seen our calendar favourites, finding the perfect destination to cross off your yearly resolution is easy. Whether you're visiting New Zealand in January, Japan in May, or France in September, it's time to go out there and make the best of the New Year!

Muslims Aren't Dangerous
YouTube: https://youtube.com/watch?v=cKq0m3_aBoM
Previous: John Gets a Tattoo
Next: Is Poverty Necessary? Looking back at the Millennium Development Goals
Dislikes: 1,851
When I first thought maybe I would make this video I typed "Muslims Aren't Dangerous" into Google to see what other people had written on the subject, or if maybe I was imagining the need for this discussion, but all I found was article after article about how dangerous Muslims are. It was so sad, so discouraging, so angering. I would read those articles and find myself, not usually, but occasionally saying "Well, I suppose you do have a point" but, of course, they didn't. They were highlighting my own ignorances and bias...we know so little of each other...but what I have found is that the vast majority of people are good, and this debate rests wholly on the idea that that is not true of Muslims.
Many people have begun to believe that in this country and it terrifies me, because it is based on nothing except fear and prejudice.
Good Morning John.
So it's a little shocking to me and like a lot of other people that a fourteen year old kid in a NASA shirt brought a clock that he built to school to show his engineering teacher and was arrested and taken to a juvenile detention center.
But then on the other hand, its not shocking because Ahmed Mohamed name is Ahmed Mohamed and he is Muslim. And many people in America are afraid of Muslims. Now I'm not going to make a video here about how the vast vast vast majority of Muslims just like any other broad diverse group of people are good people.
Two reasons for that: first, finding these statistics on the internet that make this very clear is pretty easy. Second, making a video defending Muslims would ignore the actual problem which is the bias and the fear mongering that creates suspicion and hatred and those things are our problems.
And our problems we can deal with so much more easily than trying to deal with other people's problems, especially when those problems are imagined. Now of course, its not super comfortable to recognize your own problems and it doesn't make you feel all good which is why this video is not gonna go super viral. But since it is the actual problem, and also one that we can deal with conceivably since we are the ones with the problem, that's what I want to make the video about.
So why do so many Americans, including, I'll be honest sometimes myself, fall into this fear trap? First, because its just impossible to know everything about everyone and though Muslims have been in America since America existed, they are a significant minority, less than 1%.
So most Americans simply don't know much about Muslims or the Islamic faith. But we do hear about Muslims fairly regularly on the news, and we hear about the scariest Muslims in the world.
So if you're expected to have an idea of what Muslim people are like and this is the only input you're getting, you're gonna have a really messed up idea. It's an easy mistake for the brain to make, but it is a huge mistake, because we know nothing!
An example: What percentage of Muslims would you say live in the Middle East? 80%? 85%? That's what I would've said before starting to research this video. How about 20%? 60% of Muslims live in Asia.
The single country with the largest Muslim population? Indonesia. If we are ignorant of such a basic fact, how could we consider ourselves qualified to make sweeping generalizations about a broad and diverse group of people?
Once these negative ideas are set up in our brain, they can be easily reinforced in people who are motivated by fear and outrage. Those people watch other people on TV who professionally cultivate outrage and fear because it's good for ratings, and that fear then prevents conversations and causes the majority to isolate Muslims from their broader communities by doing thing like for example arresting a kid for bringing a clock to class.
So the fear builds on itself until what was once ignorance and became fear eventually becomes hatred. And once you hate someone, they know it. Muslims in America are certainly not ignorant of the hatred and the discrimination, but Muslims in other countries aren't ignorant of the more extreme American views, either.
In fact, I'm willing to bet that in the same way that we are mostly just about scary Muslims on American news, in other countries they hear mostly about the scariest versions of Americans. And if people in other countries are gonna put us in a little box, which they are bound to do because no one can know everything about everyone, what little box do we want to get put into? Do we want to be in the "hates Muslims" box, or do we want to be in the "values religious freedom and provides opportunities for people who seek it" box.
I think we should fight that fear. I think we can fight that fear and the only way to do it, the only place to do it is up here. It's right in here. John, I'll see you on Tuesday.

Something completely different: Why wasn't Gene Nelson a huge star?
Gene Nelson, a singer and dancer from Hollywood's golden age, reminds us that talent isn't always enough. You need an intangible extra to be a star.
Gene Nelson with his ex-wife Miriam Nelson, who was also a dancer and choreographer (and who died recently).
I need a break from politics, so I want to talk about something different, which is star power.
Star power is real, although some stars, like butterflies, have to grow up a bit before you see it. If you go back and watch 1939's Stagecoach, which was John Wayne's breakout role after he'd already been kicking around in Hollywood for almost a decade, you see star power. Apparently his good looks notwithstanding, that decade was necessary to bring his wattage to maturity.
Katherine Hepburn also had to grow into her star power. In her early movies, sometimes she was good (as in Little Women) and sometimes she overacted so badly it makes ones teeth hurt (as in Stage Door). No matter the role, though, and no matter the quality of Hepburn's work, she draws you in. You can't help but watch her.
Star power affected musical performers too. Gene Kelly and Fred Astaire had it. Both were superb dancers and okay singers. Gene was handsome; Fred dorky. In other words, they were like a thousand other talented Hollywood hopefuls but, when they're in a scene, you watch them.

Q: How is this movie related to 'Hotel Chevalier'?
Q: What are all the agreements that Francis tries to make with Jack and Peter while on their trip?
Q: Why is Francis' head all bandaged up?
Where's the nearest train to India?
The Darjeeling Limited is certainly a visually appealing movie. The rich colors of southeast Asia mesh wonderfully with Anderson's penchant for precise set-pieces, and it make the entire experience a pleasure to watch.
As for the rest of the movie, you probably already know if you're into Wes Anderson's brand of story. The father issues, the esoteric musical choices, the slightly surreal quality of each character - it's all here. The three brothers are well-conceived, with personalities that directly influence the overall narrative and the resolution. I liked it. It's more of the same, but pleasant enough to make that seem like a minor issue.
Oh, and be sure to watch the Hotel Chevalier short before The Darjeeling Limited. It helps fill in the back-story for one of the brothers, and it's an interesting movie in it's own right.
