Every student has their own reasons for attending workshops, and in my experience as a tutor, they can be varied. I like to teach through demonstration, then support and encourage students as they work independently. I hope to inspire, encourage and share my enthusiasm, whilst aiming to meet the needs of each student on an individual basis.
My own making has developed with a grounding in techniques and hours of exploration and experimentation. So, I'd like to offer workshops to cater for a range of learning; for those interested in the 'destination' (SKILLS BASED), or the completing of a made object to those wishing to make a 'creative journey' (SKETCH-BOX), where the process is more important than a finished piece of work. Of course sometimes there is an overlap, and I always like to be flexible and workshops can often throw up unexpected ideas!
Begin by looking at the structure of a coiled basket to identify the core and stitching material. Learn the techniques for hand stitching around the core to begin the basket, wrap and join threads. A basic stitching technique will be taught, with suggestions as how patterns could be added with colours and the placing of each stitch. If making a small basket, rather than a mat, learn how to place the core material to build a form. Before leaving, learn how to finish the basket off with the core neatly stitched to against the rim, or to perhaps to form a loop. The day is intended as a skills based day; to try out a technique or perhaps as a refresher. At the end of the day students should take one piece.
Learn how to weave strips of flat paper into a three dimensional basket using the technique of plaiting. Starting with colour strips to learn the technique, use the skills learnt to weave a second plaited basket working with decorative paper. Learn how to weave a base, turn the corner, weave the sides and finish the ends. The day is intended as a skills based day; to try out a technique or perhaps as a refresher. At the end of the day students should take home two finished baskets.
Explore the process of stitching to create a fabric. Work with a range of flexible textile materials, from the more common to the unusual. Experiment with working flat, working in 3D, in the round and from side to side. Compare stitch variations, materials and tension. Consider ways of joining and finishing. The intention of this workshop is to explore and experiment, with the opportunity to make samples which might provide ideas or a stimulus for future work. Samples would be a good addition to a 'sketch-box'.
Bookings can be made through West Dean College.
Using a range of recycled, new and decorated paper; explore how paper can be used to make a number of different containers and baskets. With no experience required, the main technique of plaiting will be taught as well as twining. In addition to the learning of both techniques there will be opportunities to develop individual baskets.
Bookings can be made through Plas Tan y Bwlch.
Learn the technique of twining to create a range of different woven forms, with an initial focus on the basics of the technique. Working with your hands, manipulate the warp and weft threads into forms that could be functional, decorative or both. Experiment with the weave to add colour, pattern and texture to the surface of the form.
Bookings can be made through Committed to Cloth.


Growing up, I did NOT like math. Through a lot of hard work and a few caring teachers, I did well in math, but often struggled and was frequently frustrated. As a parent, and now as a homeschooling parent, I long for my kids to ENJOY every subject. Math tends to be one of those subjects that ends up being a heavy "paper/pencil" activity. What does that mean? Worksheets – and lots of them. Kids get so easily bogged down and disheartened doing worksheet after worksheet. While I think worksheets are sort of unavoidable in math, I think there are many ways to add FUN to our mathematical learning.
As a classroom teacher, I tried to incorporate as much hands-on play as possible into my math instruction. We used manipulatives every chance we could. We did logic puzzles. We played games. Games are a fantastic learning tool, and there are so many incredible math-related games on the market.
Today I wanted to share my FAVORITE math-related games with you.
I'm throwing it back to an oldie but goodie again with Mastermind. Mastermind really targets those deductive reasoning skills necessary for many different mathematical equations and problems…not to mention countless everyday life situations!
Pull that game of Yahtzee off the shelf or invest in a new one because Yahtzee is more than a game of lucky rolls. Yahtzee helps your child recognize numbers in dot form, add numbers, begin to understand multiplication ("Look, you have three fives! Three groups of five is 15.), and helps develop critical thinking and reasoning. As your child adds up their roll, they must also decide where to place their score- weighing the odds and making the best choices.
In Head Full of Numbers, players race to create unique and correct math equations from the numbers rolled. Think Boggle, but with numbers!
Monopoly Junior is a fun and easy way to learn the basics needed to play classic Monopoly. Kids will learn how to count money and make change as they buy up fun properties like the skate park and ice cream shop.
Though more suited for older children, Sumoku is a fantastic way for kids to develop their mathematical thinking. Players must create rows that add up to multiples of the chosen number. You must work through your knowledge of multiplication while quickly adding up tiles to see if you can make a multiple. Lots of thinking and lots of fun! This game can also get competitive quickly!
A game with a similar concept that is also fantastic is Mathable!
Kids will love this game that allows them to "steal" piles of money. Count up your cards and let the money stealing begin!

2017 SOLAR ECLIPSE
MTSU to distribute solar eclipse glasses to help K-12 students witness event
MTSU will be distributing solar eclipse glasses donated by Turner Construction to students of Rutherford County and Murfreesboro City schools to safely witness the Aug. 21 event.
Middle Tennessee State University will be providing 50,000 solar eclipse glasses for students and staff of a County Schools serving around 44,000 to 45,000 children next year, district spokesman James Evans said.
"We want to allow as many students as possible to witness," said Evans, who noted how teachers will prepare lesson plans to help students grasp the significance of a solar eclipse in science, math, language arts, social studies and other subjects.
MTSU Physics and Astronomy Department Chairman Ron Henderson said he will be delivering the solar eclipse glasses to the administration offices for both public school districts to distribute out the campuses.
"We're super excited about the event because it's once in a lifetime," Henderson said. "We are doing all we can to get the public involved."
County Board of Education officials discussed the solar eclipse plans during their Tuesday night work session.
Students will be able to keep the solar eclipse glasses
The county district will be providing parents with permission forms to sign to allow their children to participate in the solar eclipse activities, said Richard Zago, assistant superintendent for curriculum and instruction.
The Aug. 21 eclipse is supposed to last 55 seconds from about 1:29 p.m. to 1:30 p.m., said Evans, who noted that a partial phase of the event will be going on between noon and 3 p.m.
The students will be able to take the solar eclipse glasses home and keep them as memorabilia, Zago said.
Board member Aaron Holladay also urged the district to make allowances for students serving detentions to witness what could be a once in a lifetime event.
Holladay also suggested that parents be informed that the district is providing a safe way to witness the solar eclipse while their children are in school.
"Our we prepared to have parent involvement?" Holladay asked the administrators to consider. "Would we welcome it? Would we encourage it?"
City schools train staff for solar eclipse lessons
Like the county, city schools faculty and staff look forward to joining their students in witnessing the eclipse thanks to the assistance of Henderson, district spokeswoman Lisa Trail said.
"MTSU has been very gracious and enthusiastic regarding the solar eclipse," Trail said. "They are providing glasses to all of our students and staff."
MTSU has already conducted three in-services (teacher training and organizational days) regarding the eclipse for several staff members of city schools, said Trail, whose district served about 8,600 children by the end of the past school year.
"Our teachers will be relying heavily on the curriculum they develop for the solar eclipse," Trail said. "It's easy to get excited when you speak with Dr. Henderson and his colleagues. It will be an amazing day."
MTSU has other plans to celebrate and witness the solar eclipse at a campus with a $147 million Science Building that opened in 2014 to offer more than 250,000 square feet of space, as well as older science buildings that have been recently renovated.

Serial Number 2063847
2063847 - Sold out
We say it all the time, but that's only because it's true: There's just nothing quite as sweet as an all-mahogany. They're warm and rich, dry and woody—just right for any style of music. That's why we're such big fans of the Martin 15-Series. With these guitars, you're not paying for fancy finishes or over-the-top inlays; you're paying for quality tone woods and the refined sound only a Martin can provide.
This Martin DC-15ME features a dreadnought body with a cutaway constructed entirely of mahogany. Its East Indian Rosewood fingerboard and bridge are an excellent fit, and they also allow the beauty of the woods to show through. Subtle diamond inlays, an under-stated rosette, and a vintage-style "C.F. Martin" decal complete an aesthetic that is truly all about the quality of the woods. Outfitted with a bone nut, bone saddle, genuine ebony bridge pins, and open-gear Grover tuning machines, the DC-15ME is set up to play and function as it should. When you add a Fishman Matrix VT Enhance pickup system, the result is a great-sounding guitar that will be by your side whenever and wherever you need it.

actually, did the two group encounter and make connection , during the 19 century
the main destination of the Chinese immigrants was the maerican west, and they worked in mines, railroad, or farms and ranches, so , they wpuld encounter the native American, but I could not find much information on this situation
I knew that in the mid 19 century, a group of Chinese went to western Canada, from hong Kong, and thier ship was wrecked, and they were enslaved by a group of Nativeb American, but only a short period of time, they were resuced by the royal rangers.
Actually, Chinese and native American were close realtives, we share the same ethnic root, in the frozen siberia, during ice age, from 20 century onward, more and more educated Chinese realized this, and what was the Native American 's opinion and View on Chinese/

Nei ho Tommy.
I can't speak for all tribes, as America is a big place with a lot of different cultures each with their own histories (like Asia). However, I'm of Nez Perce heritage and there were plenty of Chinese immigrants around our homeland during the 19th-20th century. They came as miners, traders, merchants, and labourers, among other jobs. I think our interaction with them was definitely less than with the whites, but here are a couple examples I know:
During the Nez Perce War in 1877, the people of Chief Joseph's band and a few others were fleeing on a long trek toward Canada to try and escape the US Government, who was attempting to force them on to a reservation.
There was one incident during this war known as Fort Fizzle, which you can read about here: (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fort_Fizzle_(Montana)#The_Army_and_the_Nez_Perce)
In this incident, Looking Glass (a famous Nez Perce leader) was trying to negotiate with US soldiers for safe passage for his people. The US authorities wanted the Nez Perce to surrender all their guns. Looking Glass is quoted as having said "When a Chinaman travels, he carries no arms. Do you think I am a Chinaman?" This comment was meant to show the white authorities that he and the other Nez Perce were not willing to give up their guns and travel around unarmed. They were traveling through wilderness in to buffalo hunting country and it would have been very dangerous for them to go without any guns for protection.
Also during the Nez Perce War, there was one incident in August, 1877 at Birch Creek in Idaho. A group of Nez Perce warriors met a group of teamsters hauling whiskey and other supplies. The teamsters were white along with a couple Chinese workers. This meeting was shortly after the Battle of Big Hole, where many Nez Perce (including women and children) had been killed by US Army troops. Because of this, some of the Nez Perce warriors were hot-tempered and wanted to take revenge on any whites they could find. They got a hold of some whiskey from the teamsters, and after getting drunk they got very violent and attacked and killed five of the white teamsters, however they let the two Chinese workers go free, and one other white teamster escaped.
That incident led to a fight within the Nez Perce bands, between the warriors who had killed the whites and some other Nez Perce who were trying to prevent needless violence. One famous fighter from the Battle of Big Hole (named Ketalkpoosmin) was killed during this argument. The Nez Perce leaders destroyed the rest of the whiskey to prevent any more violence.
Also, there was an incident near the Snake River (in Nez Perce homeland) called the Chinese Massacre at Deep Creek, which happened in 1887. A group of Chinese miners were slaughtered by a group of local white men. There is now a monument there about the incident, and is written in English, Chinese, and Nez Perce. No Nez Perce people were involved in this incident, but I thought I'd mention it since it occurred in our territory and the monument is partly in our language. You can read about the massacre here: https://oregonencyclopedia.org/articles/chinese_massacre_at_deep_creek/#.WOZYrI7avBI
That's all I know offhand about the Chinese in Nez Perce territory. If I find any other information I'll let you know. :)

Those are chapters of our history that's been ignored.
Thanks for the welcome.
By the way just thought I'd add that the word for Chinese people in Nez Perce language is "célmen." You can see it on the photo of the monument at the Deep Creek massacre site. I believe it comes from the English term "chinamen", if you say it in Nez Perce the word sounds a bit similar. However it's not a derogatory term in Nez Perce, it was just probably picked up from American English because, before the 19th century, Nez Perce didn't really know about China, and they heard the word being used for Chinese in America.
For anyone interested, I came across two sources which seem to be very relevant to this subject. Haven't had the chance to read them fully yet, but look good from the previews:
"They Looked Askance": American Indians and Chinese in the Nineteenth Century U.S. West by Jordan Hua (it looks like his thesis).
Horizontal Inter-Ethnic Relations: Chinese and American Indians in the Nineteenth-Century American West by Daniel Liestman.

your information is so valuable
Now a day in China, more and more people( especially the intellectual), recognized the cultural ,historical and ethnical connection between chinese and native American, in hong kong, I encountered a street musician, who came from Peru, he was the descendent of the great Inca empire, and he also recognized the connection between Chinese and the native people

No worries tommy, glad you found it useful.
Re: connections between Chinese and Native-Americans, I'm not so sure about that. I'm willing to accept the theory about migration via an ice-age land bridge from Asia to North America, but whether that means there's any direct link between modern Chinese and my ancestors is doubtful for me. That's more genetics anyway, so not really my area of interest. In my view our cultures and languages are quite different, but that isn't a bad thing. There's no harm in celebrating the uniqueness of your own ancestors while learning from other nations. :)
If you're interested in some historical relations between China and North America though, I'd really recommend you read up on the Maritime Fur Trade of the late 18th/early 19th century. One thing I find interesting is how some of the Chinese goods brought to North America through that trade ended up being used by local indigenous nations. For example, here are some photos of Tlingit armour that used Chinese coins brought through the trade networks:

You know, in the historical record of 3 century China(The records of the Three kingdoms), we found an Ethnic group, that was called 挹婁(yìlóu), they lived in North East Asia, using canoe ,living in a underground house, using poison arrow to shoot, and raising pig and deer, they were brave and strong, always fought with other neighbors, and later they disappeared in the Chinese records, I just wonder, were they the ancestors, of modern day Inuit people, the sound was quite similar, since Inuit people moved to North America in 1000 Ads, at that time, North east Asia was very unstable, Kitan people destroyed the Kingdom OF BoHai, might create a wave of migration, pushing YILOU people moved to bering strait and eventually North America.

I am from China. The suggestions about the connections between Chinese and native Americans might not be well grounded. If the native Americans were indeed the ancient Asians who migrated there, that could only be during the ice age which was about 12K years ago, when the earliest civilization of China hadn't really formed yet. If we want to suggest some connections, the connections could only be in the genes - very remotely. We don't see any slightest evidence about the cultural similarity between these two ethnic communties...

Your word" Chinese. actually only referring to Hans people, but modern Chinese would also include those ethnic minority, and the culture ,and Dna of modern Native American, in some parts, are so similar to the culture and Dna of come Chinese ethnic minority, for example , some Native American, as well as some Ethnic minority group of North East China, would both live in those round shaped camp, which Native American would call it " Tipi"
Today, 'Chinese" is not only referring to Hans, but to other ethnic minority, and the culture, ae well as Dna, of the Native American are so similar to those Ethnic minority of North East China, for example, both the ethnic minority group of North East China, as well as some Native American tribes, would set up and live in a kind of round shaped camp, (Tipi). Also they both share a kind of Shmanism

Arctic peoples from North America and Siberia, as well as Aleutian islanders, did have some limited contact with each other from what I've read. For example the book 'Native North American Armor, Shields, and Fortifications' by David E. Jones says that in the early 1800s there were Alaskan Inuit trading along the Kolyma River in Siberia. The book also cites another source which states that:
"Siberians and Alaskans visited each other across the strait - probably not often and sometimes with war in mind, but they did not live in the isolation often attributed to them. From 2,300-foot Cape Mountain behind Wales [Alaska], Siberia's coastal hills loom high above the horizon and the Diomede Islands appear to ride like rocky whales in a glassy sea on a calm, sunny day. After the umiak [open row boat] was invented, the strait became an intercontinental highway, its coastal fringes occupied by people who had more or less the same way of life."
If we want to suggest some connections, the connections could only be in the genes - very remotely. We don't see any slightest evidence about the cultural similarity between these two ethnic communties...
I agree. Personally I don't consider myself or my ancestors to have anything to do with Chinese people, and neither do most Native-Americans from my experience. I still find Chinese history to be interesting and I've had loads of Chinese friends, but to say we're some sort of long-lost cousins doesn't fly with me.
By the way, if we're on the subject of Asians and Native-Americans, there is an interesting story about a half-Chinook man who traveled to Japan in the 19th century and became one of the first English teachers of the modern era there: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ranald_MacDonald
His Chinook ancestors had trading connections with the Nez Perce and other Columbia Plateau people via the Columbia River.

2018 RECITAL "SEIZE THE DAY"
Our 2018 recital "Seize the Day" was a smashing success! Thank you to all who attended and supported our dancers. There were so many wonderful dances - it's hard to highlight them all! And we're so grateful to Miss Sarah for helping us create a beautiful sendoff for our three seniors .

Zoey has also taught workshops with dancers from shows such as So You Think You Dance and America's Best Dance Crew including Boogie Bots, Heavy Impact, Static Noyze, Iconic Boyz, Blue Print Cru, Poreotics, I Am Me Crew and Mos Wanted Crew. He has also had the opportunity to hit the scene internationally, traveling to the Philippines for a workshop tour. Zoey has Judged and featured choreography for World Of Dance showcase/competition Tour presented by Paul Mitchell. In 2010 Zoey started his own production and management company Cruz Productions which provided entertainment, exposure and inspiration to the DC, Maryland, and Virginia dance community. Fall of 2011, Zoey was the featured guest choreographer for the Maryland Council Of Dance "State DanceFest". He has also taught at several prestigious colleges such as George Town, Wagner College and Brown University. Zoey currently is the chair for Metropolitan School of the Arts' Hip Hop department, and a staff/instructor at Shenandoah University Dance Conservatory. He is also an official World Of Dance network YouTube partner as a choreographer and has hosted one of the nation's biggest Urban Hip Hop competition/showcase called "Prelude Dance Competition".
Our second competition of the year was Power of Dance in Binghamton, NY on April 13-14.
Our dancers received many top 5 and top 10 placements and special awards, including a choreography award for Miss Alexa and highest overall senior group. But the best prize was the 2018 ADCC Studio Excellence Award, for sportsmanship and overall studio excellence!

Digital media is an ever-growing source of entertainment, news, updates, shopping and social interaction. Now, customers are more than ever influenced by not only your ads but what the media, friends, and peers are saying about your company and brand. Now consumers have access to information through digital media on the go, anywhere and anytime. Digital media is a strong marketing tool and your customers will know not only what you tell them about your products but more importantly the comments which anyone can post.
Today, it is more important than ever before, to offer best products and services to your customers so they have nothing but a pleasant experience to share. Customers today also dictate what quality, price and time they need and you must cater to their customized needs and preferences to stay on top of your business and competition. Whether you're launching a new product or location or bringing in new business clients, social media campaigns work wonderfully with pivotal moments in a company's life. Anytime you need to generate goals or generate buzz, social media is the foundation of your success in today's world.
The trend of entrepreneurship and business has risen more than ever today. We have seen an increased growth in freelancers today. Every third person we meet these days is into one business or another. Due to my work, I was fortunate enough to participate in National Freelancers Convention and Herself Women's Convention this year which took place in Lahore. I got to converse with a number of entrepreneurs/freelancers who are really successful today.
Social media has given a whole new perspective to advertising. It has a fantastic reach and costs nothing compared to traditional forms of marketing. Now we can reach thousands of interested audience at the click of a button, without investing a single penny. We don't even need to get professional training for this. We can do so by just a little common sense and looking out for current trends.
Through this series of blog posts, I wish to educate beginners on the basics of Digital Marketing.
I completed my Masters in Business Administration, Majors in Marketing in 2007. I am currently working as Marketing Manager in an IT company BroadPeak Technologies, Lahore. I have experience in Sales & Marketing of over 10 years now from London, Islamabad, Lahore and Karachi. Apart from work, I am also a lifestyle blogger and share my thoughts on different aspects of life on my blog 'A Little Bit of Everything'. Through this post, I would like to encourage young entrepreneurs to make full use of Social Media Marketing to promote their business.
What social media platforms will you be using?
The first and the most important thing you need to sort out is to have a perfect profile or about section. Make sure you cover all aspects of your business in the shortest form. Make sure you re-read it a number of times to make sure there are no errors. A single typo can put your company reputation at stake. Check out competitors About sections and make sure yours competes and is attractive for your audience.
Social media in most cases is promoting your website, page or blog. Make sure you have quality content there or the whole social media campaign is pointless. Your audience must have something worth visiting.
All images used on social media esp Instagram and Facebook must be attractive quality images. Thoughtless, blurry posts can ruin brand reputation forever. Include colorful photos on your social media to attract audience.
They have the best reach out of all content.
Sharing informative and entertaining videos.
Today, this is one of the most popular social media platform. It basically is an overview of what your typical day looks like. These stories vanish within 24 hours. I used to use Snapchat but recently moved to Insta-stories. This is a great way to promote your business by showing behind the scenes and show teasers of your upcoming posts. I think it is very engaging for audience.
At least 2 posts every week. Consider 1 post every day but bear in mind the challenge of new interesting post every single day. Ideal times to post are early morning, late evening, Fridays and Mondays.
Let me know your thoughts. I will be waiting for your comments.


Here are all the details on Washington's first win in Greece from GoHuskies.com.
Sounds as if it really was a huge step forward for Wolfinger.
As I stated earlier, all those lower-division Pac-10 predictions for UW may really have to be re-evaluated if Wolfinger can do this on a consistent basis.


More/less toggle is now retired. Please refer to a more comprehensive Options instead.
With more/less toggle, your authors may choose different embeds codes for number of publishers.
Iframely lets you configure number of providers individually, just for your account and just the way you need. Most common ones are simple checkboxes in your API settings, whereas many of other less common adjustments can be done quickly by our support team upon your request.
It is done by adding Iframely-specific query-string command direclty inside the URL. This "More/Less" feature is designed primarily for CMS customers who give option for their authors to add embeds via a text editor. The author then can do more/less of embeds details and change the provider's setting for their individual URLs.
If you would like to disable this feature for your users, do so in your settings. Otherwise, let them know how to use it.
After you get an embed preview for your URL, it is the one that follows account's default settings. If you would like to have another embed's variant for your post, try replacing URL with a slightly different one.
Vimeo video doesn't have any query-strings yet, so vimeo.com/141567420 will become vimeo.com/141567420?iframely=less.
More/less toggle basically tries and adds or removes extra details off the rich media that you otherwise would get for your URL.
We monitor the use of iframely=more/less toggle and add more providers as people need it. If you need something more quickly, simply let us know.

I worked with him once, on the movie Dogma. I worked in the locations department, and we shared an office with the Teamsters, who were all big George Carlin fans. Consequently, he spent more time in our office than any of the other actors in the film.
It's been too many years (ten?) since our first meeting for me to recall exactly what he said, but I remember distinctly that he made a real effort to include me in the conversation (in a roomful of Teamsters, it's easy for the locations chick to be left out), and that he was full of jokes -- not of the doing-a-schtick variety, but more of the making-everyone-feel-at-ease sort. You know -- it was Bill Murray, who wanted to see everyone have a good time, versus Chevy Chase, who wanted everyone to see how clever he was.
I guess the moral of my story is that while I didn't know him well, I did know George Carlin to be a really warm and funny guy, and it thoroughly sucks ass that he's gone. So, in honor of his passing:

Forewing length: 8.0 - 13.0 mm, broad. The frons is rounded, not swollen and without projections. The labial palpi are sexually dimorphic: males have a short apical segment, whereas females have the apical segment nearly as long as the middle one. The male genitalia have narrow, triangular valvae. The fibula is scoop-shaped with a rather hollow base and is closer to the base than to the apex of the valva. The cornutus is long and straight. The female genitalia have moderately elongate apophyses and a sclerotized, cup-shaped ostium without noticeable sclerotization. The antrum has only a narrow thickening.
Larvae are white to pale pink and grow to 2 cm. The pinacula are generally not pigmented, although the dorsal pinacula of the thorax may be pale brown. The prothoracic shield is yellow-brown and lacks distinctive markings. The D1 pinacula do not have distinct spots anterior of the setae. The A1 SV group usually has one seta but rarely has two. The SD1 seta on A8 is anterior or anterodorsal of the spiracle.
Neoleucinodes silvaniae Diaz and Solis, 2007 is a similar cryptic species known from Colombia. It is slightly smaller and feeds on Solanum lanceifolium Jacq. Females have short labial palpi like those of males, with a short apical meron, and short ovipositor apophyses; the male valvae have smaller, flatter fibulae and a short cornutus; and the larvae have distinctly pigmented pinacula on the second thoracic segment; further differences are cited in Diaz and Solis (2007). Neoleucinodes prophetica also has shorter labial palpi. The male genitalia have the fibula in the distal half of the valva (beyond halfway). The female genitalia have a thickened antrum and an ostium bursae with a narrowly sclerotized lip.
Larvae bore in fruit. Females lay eggs preferentially on the underside of the calyx of fruits 1–3 cm in diameter, only rarely on leaves. Eggs hatch in 5–7 days, and the larval stage lasts 15–19 days, undergoing normally 5 instars. Larvae bore into fruit within one or two hours, leaving a 0.5 mm pinhole. They consume seeds and fruit flesh. One to three larvae per fruit is the norm, but up to 18 is possible. Larvae exit the fruit and, after a pre-pupal stage of 1–2 days, pupate in a rolled leaf edge or among plant debris on the ground. Pupation lasts about 11 days. Adults are nocturnal and live about one week. There are multiple generations per year. The male pheromone is widely used for monitoring.
The species does not occur in North America, but it is reported as far north as the Greater Antilles. It is broadly distributed in Central and South America, including: Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Ecuador, El Salvador, French Guiana, Grenada, Guatemala, Guyana, Honduras, Jamaica, Mexico, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Puerto Rico, Suriname, Trinidad and Tobago, Uruguay, and Venezuela.
Neoleucinodes elegantalis has been intercepted in Europe along with imports of Solanum melongena from Surinam and the Dominican Republic.

At this point, you should have signed up for web hosting and have a working domain name. If that doesn't sound like you, pop back a step where we explain how you can use our Hosting Finder tool to find the perfect host for your needs.
If you do have both those things, we're going to spend this article on the next piece of the puzzle – installing WordPress.
You chose a host that comes with pre-installed WordPress. Good job, you don't have to do a single thing!
You chose a host with one-click WordPress installs. This fits most hosts – you'll just have to click a few buttons to install WordPress – no technical knowledge required.
You need to install WordPress manually. This is rare nowadays, but we'll show you how to do it anyway in case you like the challenge.
Then, at the end, we'll show you a quick way to import content from Blogger, Tumblr, or other blogging platforms. If this is your first website, you won't need these tools. But if you already have, say, a Blogger blog, you can easily migrate that content to your new WordPress site.
Do You Even Need to Install WordPress?
If you remember seeing something like "pre-installed WordPress" on your host's website, you might not even need to bother learn how to install WordPress.
Most managed hosts, as well as a few cheaper options like SiteGround and InMotion Hosting, come with WordPress pre-installed. So that means you pretty much just need to log in to your hosting dashboard to find your existing WordPress website.
If you went with a cheap shared hosting option that isn't named SiteGround or InMotion Hosting, then you probably don't have that feature.
In that case, head on to the next step.
While there might be a few interface quirks between autoinstallers, they function pretty much the same.
For our guide, we'll use Softaculous and SiteGround's cPanel. But again, your specific autoinstaller might have a different name and a slightly different interface. Additionally, your cPanel might look a little different – some hosts add custom styling, though the basic layout remains the same.
To find the WordPress autoinstaller, log into your cPanel account. cPanel is the industry-standard tool for managing your hosting account. You should receive your cPanel login details somewhere in the welcome emails you got after you signed up with your host.
On the next screen, you'll need to make some choices and enter some details for your new WordPress site.
Next, you need to choose an admin username, password, and email. These are the login details you'll use to access your WordPress dashboard once WordPress is installed. So make them something you can remember. None of these details will be public, though.
At the bottom of the page, there are a few miscellaneous options. If you want your site to be in a language other than English, select it from the dropdown.
Otherwise, you can ignore selecting plugins and themes. You're ready to hit install!
The installation process might take a few minutes. But once it's done, you can log in to your brand new WordPress site at "yourdomain.com/wp-admin". In the next part of the guide, we'll provide you with some videos to help you become familiar with the WordPress dashboard.
Most hosts offer autoinstallers that greatly simplify the process. There's no downside to using an autoinstaller. So if you have the option, we recommend following the steps above.
But if you want to manually install WordPress for fun, here's how you can do it.
An FTP program – FileZilla is a good option, but there are plenty of free tools.
Your FTP account details – your host usually sends you these in your welcome email.
Access to cPanel – again, you should get these login details in your welcome email. You'll need them to create your database.
The latest version of WordPress – you can download it from WordPress.org.
You'll need to connect to your FTP account via FileZilla using the FTP account details provided by your host.
While those files are uploading, log into your host's cPanel and find the MySQL Databases button. You'll need to create a database for your WordPress site.
Once you create the database, you need to create a database user and give it access to the database so that WordPress can actually connect.
Now, assuming all of the files have finished uploading via FTP, you're ready to run the WordPress install process.
Choose your language and then continue. After a couple of clicks, you'll see a screen where you're asked to enter your database connection details. These are what you created in the previous steps.
There are a few more steps after that, but everything is very simple and well-explained. Once you've finished the install wizard, your WordPress site will be fully up and running!
Again, we can't emphasize enough that, if your host offers a one-click installer, it's much simpler to just use the provided installer. There's nothing wrong with installing WordPress that way.
If you already have a WordPress site hosted at a different host, it's easy to migrate to your new host.
On the off chance that your new host doesn't offer free migrations, you can use a free plugin called Duplicator to move your site.
Basically, you'll install Duplicator at your current host. Then, you'll use Duplicator to create a backup package of your site. Then, you need to upload that package to your new site. From there, Duplicator includes an install wizard that makes the process very simple.
If you already have an existing website hosted on Blogger or Tumblr (or a few other platforms), you probably don't want to lose all of the content you've created. Nor do you have to!
See, WordPress includes a bunch of built-in migration tools to help you import content from other platforms.
Once you install the tool, WordPress will guide you through the process of importing all of your content.
And that's it for installing WordPress. In the next section of our guide, we'll share a number of tutorial videos that will help get you familiar with your brand new WordPress dashboard.

Today's inspiration gallery is full of new hair color ideas for contemporary ombré designs. Golden-blonde and golden-brown offer a forgiving and flattering alternative to the neutral-blonde, ash-blonde and ash-brown shades that are impatiently waiting to take center stage. And I've included some spectacular rainbow color ombré inspiration, with new combinations like purple on black, fab sunset-colors, multi-toned 'unicorn' looks and all sorts of exciting color trends!
This season's new ombré ideas are playing with the idea of light and shade with some really beautiful results. This carefully graduated ombré finishes with a lovely bright shade of golden-blonde, which looks as if the end waves are bathed in sunlight!
This year almost all fashionable women with brunette hair have opted for some type of blonde ombré and they look really great! This version uses a subtle balayage technique to add fine vertical blonde highlights from high on the head, leaving the dark base color just on the roots.
Straight blonde hair and black leather jacket suggest a 'biker' fashion style. However, this modern interpretation is softer and the long tresses have a blunt, straight edge across the back, instead of pointed 'rat's tails'. The color scheme is faithful to the classic 'blonde biker' stereotype, but with attractive, modern colors from warm caramel brown to golden and beige-blonde.
Long black hair offers a fantastic background for some vivid rainbow-color ombré ideas and this indigo-blue color creates an amazing fashion statement on long hair. The shape is unusual, too, with curved graduations ending in a U-shaped back, very heavily textured tips and a choppy finish to this impressive look.
These two images of the same hair show exactly how multi-colored balayage-ombré colors appear in different styles. The straight look shows the colors in a two-dimensional flat line. However, when the hair is waved and tousled you get a fancier, 3-D effect with colors overlapping in a texture that reflects loads more light!
This amazing ombré, based on the natural colors of a tropical sunset, is a hairstyle worthy of a stage appearance from a first-rate pop artiste. On long, straight hair it makes a powerful fashion statement, but imagine how it looks with waves or in an up-style!
This magnificent dip-dye graduated ombré is another example of the hot hair color trend that's matching black/coffee brown hair with soft orange balayage and ombré designs. Darker colors, like deep red, flatter darker skin-tones so remember to keep the colors that complement your individual skin-tone next to your face.
If your work-place is not too keen on extravagant rainbow hair colors, you can still show your fashion flair with a natural color ombré. This classic look has long layers which are heavily textured and shaped at the tips to create a soft U-shaped outline at the back. With half of the hair lightened to caramel-blonde your ponytails, braids and up-styles will look fabulously modern!
Deep muted red flatters olive and darker skin-tones beautifully, and this haircut with clearly defined layers looks warmer and softer with red balayage-ombré. An off-center parting suits faces between oval and round, and heart faces, as the cute wave above the forehead adds flattering height to lengthen the face and volume around the chin adds width to a narrow chin.
This sharply-tipped long haircut is extremely chic owing to the faded effect from a horizontal band of beige-blonde, set between the medium-blonde top and tips! The shorter lengths around the face create a sweeping curve to soften the line, creating a contrast with the textured shaggy tips.
Brunettes with darker skin-tones look fantastic in this trendy new hair color idea, which looks warm and contemporary. On medium or fine hair, this long A-line bob is brought to life by burnt-orange balayage in the sides, which becomes gorgeous copper ombré at the finely textured, feather tips.
If you're looking for a fun look for the summer, try this red ombré which complements the model's olive skin-tone perfectly. The simple, same-length long cut also has textured tips creating a cute feathered look at the ends and looks fabulous worn in a pony-tail!
This expertly applied hair color design is a more sophisticated version of last year's green, mermaid ombré. Soft medium-blonde roots become shimmering acid-green before changing to light- and then rich, midnight-blue in lightly waved tips. Shorter layers around the face soften the line and rest lightly at décolletage-level.
This perfectly harmonized hair color idea shows how warm copper-orange can highlight deep-brown eyes and a lovely skin-tone. The side-parting creates a flattering wave bordering the rounded forehead and sweeping down to end in line with the lips. Along with natural make-up, this simple style creates a sophisticated image.
This layered cut has been bleached to create a medium-blonde ombré – but are the shaggy-looking tips 'trendy' or the result of chemical damage? It looks as if this model's hair has been over-bleached and this is what brittle, over-processed hair looks like, I'm afraid. Just a reminder to use an expert colorist for lightening processes!
This high-fashion hair color is a very trendy blend (and contrast) of soft, beige-blondes with copper and dark-chocolate brown. Long angled bobs on medium/fine hair need a little something extra to add texture and movement and this creative cut-and-color is a very chic hair design.
Here's an edgy look that adds lots of gothic drama to light-brown hair. The layers are highly textured for a shaggy texture on the U-shaped line at the back and this unusual color combo will make a fabulous ponytail, braid or up-style!
Here's a simple style with edgy textured tips creating a wispy look at the ends. This simplicity balances well with a fancy balayage and ombré design mixing blonde with candy-floss pink, face-framing tresses. I love the creative contrast between soft pink and those asymmetrical straight lines with brown tips!
This cool, muted-green shade actually matches the color of the walls behind the model! But what it's really saying is that you can now have your hair tinted to whatever shade you fancy. This is actually a neutral-blonde ombré, temporarily tinted with green gloss 'wash-in, wash-out' color to demonstrate what can be done!
And from drab-green let's finish with this sunny golden ombré on long hair that shows how cheerful some colors are! It's an important point – because now the range of colors is virtually infinite, you need to make sure you choose a color that creates a positive image and enhances your individual skin-tone and eye-color!
With a neutral-blonde ombré and temporary hair colors like Crazy Color or Revlon Tinted Gloss, you can change the shades in your hair to match your outfit! So which new colors will you be wearing?


You might have just purchased a new computer but it may be slow as a snail. Often, this is not due to the specs of your computer. The computer manufacturer might have installed many software applications which are bloating and slowing your new computer. If you are not going to use many of these applications, you can simply uninstall them and save your computer's resources.
It is common for most computer manufacturers to install lots of software on the computers they sell. This is because they have agreements with software companies to put trial software on new computers.
For example, many new computers come with free games with time limitation. You will be able to play these games for some time or up to certain levels after which you have to pay money to be able to play the game.
Not all software applications that come preinstalled on new computers are trial ware. The computer manufacturer may include many utilities such as CD burners and free antivirus software.
Preinstalled software applications may slow down the computer by starting up when the computer starts and taking up resources. If you do not use these software, they will simply sit idle and waste your computer's resources.
The best way to solve this issue is to uninstall unwanted applications. If there are only a few applications, you can use the native Windows utility that allows you to install and uninstall applications. You can open this utility by searching for "uninstall" in the search field after clicking on Start.
You can also use third-party tools such as Revo UnInstaller or CCleaner. In most cases when applications are uninstalled, they leave a number of keys in the registry which can slow down your computer. You can use registry cleaners such as CCleaner to get rid of these unwanted keys and improve your computer's performance.
An even better option is to reinstall Windows and install only required applications. Your computer will most likely come with an OEM license key which can be used to install Windows from a DVD. If your computer has not come with a driver CD, you will have to download the drivers individually from the company's website and install them.
If you do not want to uninstall the applications or reinstall Windows, you can still make your computer faster by disabling the software from starting up at the time of boot up. Windows comes with a utility called "msconfig" which allows you to enable and disable applications from running at startup. You can also use a utility such as CCleaner to enable and disable applications at startup. Using CCleaner is a better option because it also comes with many other features that allow you to tweak your computer and make it faster.

There's nothing quite like a live musical performance. Out of the studio and the machinations of perfection, seeing (and listening) to musicians bask in their artistic element is equal parts intoxicating and inspiring.
Miya Folick's recent music video or "Thingamajig" does just that. Cut by Kim Dubé, the music video captures the live rendition of Folick's tune with irresistible elegance and power, blending intimate shots of performance with a deeper touch of what the ballad conveys. It's a must-watch that will certainly be on repeat after one listen!


Trayvon Mullen, Clemson Johnathan Abram, Miss. St.
They're ranked in a formula/evaluation method that couples "expected off the board order" along with evaluation of athletic skill at their respective position. It so happens that most years the DraftBoardGuru formula leads to approx. 170-180 prospects in the category of defensive/special teams players. This is a very strong defensive value board in 2019 and there's also a few special special team players.
On defense: Cornerback is a position that isn't necessarily spectacular at the top, in the area you would normally find blue-chip prospects. Yet, it is a tremendously deep position. Teams looking for CB's should be able to find safe haven in all of the rounds, as the depth runs very deep.... The defensive line and Edge positions are more skewed towards the upper rounds with a fantastic number of Round One and Round Two prospects. The linebackers, at times, can be painful to evaluate in this draft class. It's a rather bland group... and is some of that due to the fact that many of the best athletes in the collegiate game are being moved to Edge and Safety? In a prior era of football, teams stacked their best players at LB, and that just isn't the case anymore. Food for thought, anyhow. The safety position is a strong group. But as has been the case at the Safety position in recent years, there are many flavors of "safety" and what fits one team might not fit another.

Previous Topic | Young adults' views about what causes depression Signs and symptoms of depression | Next Topic
In the United States, clinical guidelines and/or DSM-V Criteria describe specific signs and symptoms professionals can use to diagnose depression*. In this section of the website, we focus on something different: how depression feels to young adults while they are living inside of it, as described by those we interviewed. (For summaries of how it feels for young adults to cycle in and out of depression, or how it feels to be healing from it, see 'Cycles of depression and maintaining hope' and 'Depression and healing.')
Young adults have a variety of experiences with depression, but one thing all those we talked to shared is the feeling that they are somehow separated from the rest of the world. Each person described, in one way or another, being in their "own little world," losing their motivation to do things, and becoming socially isolated. One person talked about "feeling so alien to the rest of the world around me." Sam said that when he's depressed he has to "unplug and not really communicate with anyone."
Marty describes how he could not get out of bed.
Marty lives with his girlfriend in temporary housing. He is currently looking for work and a good place to live in preparation for the birth of his first child. He is Caucasian.
I would just stay in my room, under my covers. And I remember looking outside the window and just thinking to myself, watching cars go by and just thinking to myself how, how do you get in your car and just go you know, go about your day. I remember that, that was a big part of me thinking about my depression.
For many people, that sense of isolation was accompanied by feeling overwhelmed. Some described this as everything becoming unmanageably "abrasive to my senses": bright lights, groups of other people, noise, daylight. Others talked about everyday responsibilities like school work becoming "frightening," or dissolving in tears while in public without knowing why.
Sam says that during bad periods of depression, his experience of being overwhelmed is itself overwhelming.
Sam works as a young professional to earn money to resume his university studies. He lives in an apartment with a roommate. He is White.
I was spending hours a day in my room, sometimes never leaving my room. And that was the second period of extended, prolonged depression that I felt. I'd been seeing a counselor with the university for most of that year, but they were very surface level chats in which I'd say, again, this happened to me in my childhood, but I hadn't really processed how it was still affecting me. And, all of a sudden, I changed on a dime, to be constantly coming in setting up emergency meetings. Not because I was actively suicidal, though I was experiencing suicidal ideation at that point, but just because this sense of being overwhelmed was overwhelming and I didn't have any other outlet with which I could articulate that.
Metaphors about depression
For many of those we interviewed, ordinary language and descriptions were not nuanced enough to capture the complexity of how depression feels. Instead, they invented figures of speech (metaphors), or a comparison between their depression and something else (analogies). One person with mild depression said it was like "the most uncomfortable nothing." Others who were suffering more intensely said it was like being stuck in a hole or "very tight bubble," being "uncomfortable in my own skin," or living in a "shroud of darkness." Ryan described his depression as "like you have this huge ball of yarn that you're never going to untangle but you keep trying anyways and it's just painstaking." Colin says for him depression can be a form of tunnel vision, and feeling better would mean getting his peripheral vision back.
When he is depressed, Joey sees the world as a dead field; when he's not depressed, it can be more like an awesome forest.
Shayne sees her two cats as representing different sides of her: the outgoing, friendly side and the depressed, anxious one.
For Elizabeth, being depressed is like being a piece of the jigsaw puzzle, which just doesn't fit.
Joey lives in an apartment in an artists' building in an urban area near where he had gone to college. He works part time in retail stores and is a musician. He is White.
…because you're in this like mindset, you just see you know like a dead field, you know, with a bunch of like flowers like wilted and nobody there and so, I don't know. It's less, I'm not like that religious but I do feel like your mind like, your, whatever is going on in your mind does like almost like change the world around you and in some profound ways. Yeah, so I guess that was kind of how I looked at it or it was like do you just want to stare at dead fields or do you want to like see, you know like, an awesome forest with a bunch of people running around, having a good time.
It's funny because they represent me so much in a certain way. Walter always wants to be pet, petted and he always wants you to give him all the pets and he's super outgoing and super loving. He'll just sit on someone's lap, like brand new person, never been in the house before. He'll just sit on their lap and get hair all over them, you know. He loves it. Richard is more standoffish. He doesn't like being picked up. He's not the friendliest cat. He'll let you pet him if he feels like it. So it's funny because I think they're both like parts of me. They both, they both reflect parts of my personality which is really cute, I feel. Because Walter always wants attention and I'm super outgoing and I always want to make new friends, and then parts of me are like, when I get depressed or when I'm like feeling anxious, I don't want to talk to anyone right now, like. I just want to do my own thing, you know, put my headphones in and zone out, you know, like. It's like cats.
Yeah, it's. And then you're more like Richard?
Yeah, and then I'm more like Richard. So, I like my cats. They're, they're super funny. They remind me of me, that's why I like them. They're like my little babies that are fuzzy and walk on four legs [laughter]. So, yeah.
Elizabeth lives in a house with her husband. She works as a parent educator. She is White/Italian..
You know when you're trying to do like, a jigsaw puzzle and you think you have the right piece and it just doesn't fit in. Something clicks that's just wrong and you, I just feel wrong. I feel like I'm that piece that just really wants to fit and it just can't no matter how hard you're trying.
Numb, empty, comfortable in misery
Many people talked about emptiness of one kind or another as integral to their experience of depression. Jackson described the feeling as being "dead inside." Colin said depression is being "empty and lost and so un-expressibly sad." For Sophie, it is a "constant sort of flat line state," going through the motions feeling "empty and gray."
After a bout of intense sadness and crying, Leanna feels the numbness of depression descend. This is the scariest part of being depressed.
When he was depressed, Jacob didn't feel enjoyment: he just felt empty.
I usually felt. It was like a nice comfortable numbness afterward, like how, I would just think of someone who is like on hard drugs like heroin would feel, just like calm, nothing can affect me now. Like now I can actually just go through my day like a cement block, and that's terrible because that numbness from the depression is something else in itself honestly. The numbness is like the scariest thing that I think my friends and family have witnessed with me. It's just that literally where is, where is she. That's her body, but that's not her.
So I was doing all the right things, I was doing really well in school, I was on a bunch of athletic teams, I had friends, so there was nothing really wrong per say with what was going on. I just felt like I didn't really understand why I was doing all these things I was suppose to be, people were suppose to enjoy high school and I didn't. I just went everyday kind of begrudgingly and I didn't feel like I was getting anything out of it. I was like what was the point of what I am doing here and I didn't get a whole lot out of my social relationships either. Friendly or romantically I felt like I was just going through the motions and doing what typical high schoolers do. But I wasn't feeling the impacts like I thought it should be. Everything felt like empty.
Many people do eventually become motivated to ease the dark feelings associated with their depression. But for others the miseries of depression can grow to feel very comfortable. For some, it creates a passive yet powerful pull to "wallow" or "give in" to depressed habits and feelings. For others, these feelings grow to be the familiar ground on which they want to remain. As Leanna put it, "… depression can kind of sometimes be like a security blanket, it can kind of be like something you want to immerse yourself in because it's such a strong feeling that you think that like this is how I'm supposed to feel."
Pete's depression sometimes keeps him locked up in a "comfy prison."
Elizabeth describes wanting to protect her depression because it feels comfortable, and hiding it from professionals she saw after a suicide attempt who might force her to address it.
Pete lives with his mother and cat in an apartment in a large city. He is Hispanic. He has worked various jobs in the past and is looking for work.
There are times I go into my room and lock it up. It's just to me, it's just like being in a very comfy prison. So it's like something I don't want to do, but it's so familiar. It's just familiar, it's just so cozy.
So it feels safe and relaxing?
Yeah, but even wanting to go back there, it makes me feel like why would I want to go back to a place that I want to go to every time I get upset.
So a psychiatrist brought me into a room which I was very happy about at that point and I remember her asking me you know, "Were you trying to hurt yourself?" And obviously the answer was yes, people don't just take a bottle of pills to not hurt themselves, but I told her, "No." Because I was really in a place at that point where I was trying to get help and I was trying to get better, but I was in a place where I was really trying to protect the depression, because depression is a disease where it really just completely envelops you and you want to fight against it and you want to get better and you want to feel good, but it's comfortable in a way because you're used to it and it's safe and even though it's horrible and painful, you know it very well. So I said no to protect myself and the depression and obviously she didn't believe me because that was crazy.
Depression for many people includes pervasive feelings of low self-worth. Many people said their depression includes feelings that you "don't measure up," are "not worthy," or are "not good enough [and]… not doing enough." Sometimes these feelings stem from a history of abuse or neglect. In other cases, they are connected to gender and body image: a number of women we interviewed said that when they hit adolescence, self- consciousness about their bodies grew to self-loathing and became central to their depression.
Nadina has always felt inadequate, even in her gender, and thinks this feeling underlies her depression.
Nadina lives with her parents in a suburb near a small city. She completed college and works as a freelance illustrator. She is Caucasian.
I always just felt like there was something wrong with me. Whether it was my, my gender, in particular. I just kind of felt like even at a young age I noticed there was a difference between boys and girls and I kind of, kind of had this inkling that people would prefer you were born a boy instead of a girl. And that made me really, just I had very low self-confidence because of that…
Because I just felt so horribly inadequate, just like I couldn't do anything right, you know like, I can't you know, you know, I'm not as smart as other people, I'm not as pretty as other people, I'm not this, I'm not that….
Just like I couldn't do anything right, ever. And I think that's really what it comes down to with my depression, feeling like I'm never good enough, like never can do something right.
For some people, perfectionism is a marked feature of low self-esteem. For people with this tendency, good feelings about themselves depend on excelling at everything. When the fragile system of perfectionism fails, as it unavoidably must, depression rushes in. As Crystal puts it, the smallest failure can result in "punishing myself to… an extreme extent."
Julia feels she will never be as good as other people. This, in turn, feeds into her depression.
Ryan's perfectionism makes it hard for him to counter depression with any sense of satisfaction about his accomplishments.
Because I get very perfectionistic about things so, ever since then I've had this mentality that if I'm going to do well in school, I'm going to do better than everyone else which is really anxiety provoking and having really high expectations of myself really makes me feel depressed because I'm constantly comparing myself to other people and feeling this overarching theme of inadequacy. You know, like I'm never going to be good enough, and I keep raising the bar for myself and then feel like a failure all the time if I don't meet an expectation and if I do, there's always something beyond that. So yeah, I mean just that constant theme of feeling like everyone else is better than me and that, that made me feel depressed for a while and it still does. That's something that I struggle with is that I'm very insecure and I think things like that really contribute to my depression. It's just like, feeling different, feeling insecure and inadequate and not feeling like I'm able to connect with people.
And just like having a fear that I'm going to end up alone, like all these things are just like in the back of my head. So it kind of keeps me from having like a meaningful life because I'm very negative and skeptical.
Ryan lives with his girlfriend and her family in a suburb but is looking to move. He works as a janitor. He is White.
… definitely the self-doubt factor plays in. Because no matter how I'm doing, how good I'm doing I'm always in that perfectionist state of mind and that's actually self-destructive sometimes without me knowing it. Everyone will be like "this is great [name] this is great." Ya know, and I'll be like "no, or I don't want it." You know, with my music it's always been like that, with my writing it's always been like that. And definitely with my work it's always been like that. So I think that's just one of the things that kinda alters my everyday life. Just that.
Being trapped in negative thought patterns
Negative or destructive thought patterns are a common part of depression for many people. People we spoke to described this as "negative self-talk;" others as being "trapped in my head," "thoughts going crazy," or "a mental self-sabotage spiral of just doubt, self-doubt." People recognized these patterns as dysfunctional, but they are not easy to overcome because, as Jeremy put it, "negativity begets negativity."
Meghan describes her depression as "all in her head," her mind is uncontrollably racing with negative thoughts, to the point where she can't focus.
Meghan is a college student and has a job on campus. She is Caucasian.
…it was just all in my head. It was not that anything had ever happened to me it was just all of a sudden something in my, something in my mind just decided to go wacky and. It, it really started to become a problem my senior year in high school and I, that was about a year and a half or two into the start of it all and I had such a negative outlook on life like I'd said. I, it was hard for me to wake up and just approach the day-to-day things….
… so the last three months of high school were very terrible in the sense that I, I was just always so sad and I wasn't doing well academically, I didn't finish great . I just couldn't really take anything seriously and I couldn't devote myself to anything because I couldn't focus, my mind was just always racing with thoughts that I couldn't control.

Q: How do I learn which Context I have to use for each situation in Android? I'm learning Kotlin and I've already had to fill the context several times in different ways, like this, context.application, requireContext() etc.
I'm wondering if there is any way I can realize which context to use by myself instead copying them with tutorials.

A: There are mainly two type of context in android & both of them are provided to you as a ContextWrapper class object.

*

*Application Context
This context is basically provided/used when you need to do some work that doesn't involves any view/UI operation (where you don't need to refer to/rely on any UI code).
This is mostly helpful when you're doing operations directly via your process that doesn't need any UI interactions like for an example, getting list of contacts via content provider.
So, you can consider this as parent of all other context you can have in your application and apparently this is consistent for your given process.
This context is retrieved via Application class of your app, or via any other activity by requesting like (activity.applicationContext).

*Activity Context
This context is basically bounded/limited to given activity you're in right now. This is helpful to mainly do UI operations because, your context is part of the same UI you are in right now.
So, yes you can consider this a child context that can changes as per your activity changes. For most of the cases, it is not preferred to store & share this context across UI/Activities as it can lead to memory leaks.
This context can be retrieved once you're on any activity class via (Activity.this, this, context in fragments & custom views)

I agree personally that context has been confusing topic on Android since the beginning, but if you know C/C++ then I can relate this to 'pointers' (conceptually). Context are pointers for given activity/application class.
