The sister of Simon Darsh and the family tree of "Darsh". She is the gang member of the "The Bad Darsh" that she join one of the group gang alongside with her brother and her friends that she know and she known her male friend "Jasper Braken Darsch" who is the king of the hill mountain dude that paired of Lucina and many other girls; however since she joined "The Bad Darsh" group gang she is officially disrespecting the unknown family member of the "The Darsh Guy" and disrespecting there last name with privacy/ without asking permission and she siding with the bad kids of the "The Bad Darsh";; she was one good girl growing up as a kid and until life think like it pretty mixture and uninteresting specially of school; she is also the friend of Sarah Jane Richardson, the emo punk girl and the former lover of "Tommy Fett Bobson" (the friend of Jasper Darsch). Ever since in the olden days that she was growing up she use to live with her family until she move out to join the side with the gang group "The Bad Darsh" to do whatever they want that pleases them.. She was not bad girl but until she didnt obey nor accept respecting to the teacher at her school where Jasper and Sarah Richardson got kick out of school for bad action; she was lay off at school and didnt graduated and officially move on and didnt attempted to get herself a job at all. He dream was as child wanting to become a model in magazine and poster and product that she can promote; that turn it down because she didnt accept the respect to the teacher nor obey them to follow direction- because of her disappointment of her high school, she was not kick out she drop out permanently for good and for riddance; despite so that her friend and the group gang of the "The Bad Darsh" is more better than getting a job and reminded herself with the gang as a true family: because of so that family was not happy for what she has done of portraying her action and dropping out of high school; they were very upset... She listen to modern day music of 2000s and today of 2010s onward and officially like pop and electronic music, she rarely like the music of "country music". She is soft off on-off baddies girl, but unknown for sure if she has to do better up for acting as a "better person" and it is said she refused not to change/ become a better person; she is side with the "The Bad Darsh" amongside with her brother Simon Darsh - as she claims "things are alot better than previous things". She accepted this as it is, but it is too bad and honestly sad that she think as it is there "hope" does not cure or fix the case for herself - becoming who she is: but she denied the helpe and improvement - just as the same of the "The Bad Darsh" kids gang member that does not accept any help or any problem to improve them self.

Pyeongtaek Station, Line 1, Pyeongtaek, Korea.
I used the last trip out on the subway to scout about ten different locations. This stuff takes a little planning if you don't want every frame to look the same, and this is why I'm planning on reshooting this, with a few new twists. Just waiting for the snow and the sleet to lay off for a few days... not so much fun crawling along on the floor of a subway station at any time of year, really.

Workers pasted cutouts of their favorite classic cars in the men's locker room of Curtis Specialty Papers, which was a paper manufactory that made specialty papers for candy manufacturers and other firms when it closed in 2003, laying off 213 workers. The former paper mill became an EPA Superfund site in 2009.
In 2016, 20-year-old Rachel Elizabeth Curry was at the site with friends at approximately midnight when she fell off a catwalk near a smokestack, killing her instantly.
The mill originally opened as the Riegel Paper Co., having opened in 1907 with 75 employees. At one point, some 700 people worked there. In 1978, members of the Riegel family sold their remaining company stock and the mill went through a number of owners, including Crown Vantage, which, after filing for bankruptcy, sold it to Curtis in 2001.
Common #mistakes you made @ #Gym
To save yourself time, get faster results, and make your #workouts more #effective avoid these following mistakes
Waiting for #equipment
#Gym is always bound in the peak hour, instead of waiting for equipment you start your warm-up or head to the gym in the non peak hours. Always come with plan B and keep moving rather than waiting on the bench
Skipping the #warm-up
Pre-workout warm-ups are a #safe way to get away from #injury when you work out. Make the first set of exercise lighter dedicated warm-up helps you involve body weight #exercise like lungs squats pushups and jumping jacks etc.
Always using the same #machines, sets
Going through the routine #exercise will make you fell bored and the desired result will not be achieved for optimal benefit you should change your routine workout three or four weeks once. Use a work out log that works out for you.
Timing your rest period
#Strength and conditioning should be in and out within 60 min including the warm-ups to make it possible avoid wasting your time in-between the set of exercise.
Using a balanced equipment during strength exercise
If your Goal is to build strength, leave the BOSU balls and other balance accessories.cox they will decrease the amount of weight you can use. If you can’t lay off the aids entirely use them at the end of your work out to improve coordination

Llandrindod Wells is an amalgam of two very different settlements. Early Llandrindod in the
form of the old parish church and Llandrindod Hall occupies a spur sandwiched between
valleys that drop down towards the Ithon from the high ground to the east. One kilometre to
the north-west on lower ground which has been ridged and hollowed by several streams is the
Victorian and modern creation of Llandrindod Wells.
This brief report examines Llandrindod’s emergence and development up to 1750. For the
more recent history of the settlement, it will be necessary to look at other sources of
information and particularly at the origins and nature of the buildings within it.
The accompanying map is offered as an indicative guide to the historic settlement. The
continuous line defining the historic core offers a visual interpretation of the area within
which the settlement developed, based on our interpretation of the evidence currently to hand.
It is not an immutable boundary line, and may need to be modified as new discoveries are
made. The map does not show those areas or buildings that are statutorily designated, nor
does it pick out those sites or features that are specifically mentioned in the text.
We have not referenced the sources that have been examined to produce this report, but that
information will be available in the Historic Environment Record (HER) maintained by the
Clwyd-Powys Archaeological Trust. Numbers in brackets are primary record numbers used in
the HER to provide information that is specific to individual sites and features. These can be
accessed on-line through the Archwilio website (www.archwilio.org.uk).
History of development
The name refers to the 'Church of the Trinity', but the former name of the church and its
parish was Llandow in 1283 and Lando in 1291 meaning ‘church of God’. Llandynddod
appears only in 1535, but the change to the Trinity is one that can be recognised in several
other churches in Wales.
The earlier focus occupies a spur overlooking this area. Whether the church represents an
early medieval foundation is unclear. The 'llan' prefix might suggest this but there is no
corroborative evidence. Its later history, too, is uncharted. The occurrence of platforms
opposite the church hints at more than just an isolated church, but the evidence as yet is not
compelling.
Llandrindod Hall by the old church was converted into a large hotel in about 1749, but it
functioned for less than forty years and was demolished by its proprietor, reportedly because
of its unsavoury clientele. It was replaced in the 19th century by a farmstead.
Reportedly the origins of the spa town go back to the late 17th century. Cae-bach Chapel
(30000; Grade II listing) in Brookland Road was founded in 1715. Saline and sulphur springs
were discovered in the 1730s and these were noted in various publications in the following
twenty years. But the emergence of Llandrindod Wells is essentially a 19th-century
phenomenon and thus falls outside the scope of this report, although in expanding over
Llanerch Common, the town enveloped the Llanerch Inn, which has some 17th-century
features.
The heritage to 1750
The old parish church of Holy Trinity (16027) lies more than 1km south-east of the town and
was sited on the edge of an extensive tract of common upland. It originally had a single
chamber of 13th/14th-century build with a south porch and small west spire. It was completely
rebuilt in 1894, after the archdeacon of Llandrindod had removed the roof in order to
'encourage' townspeople to attend the new church in the town. The old church houses several
18th and 19th-century monuments but its 'sheel-na-gig' (5960) uncovered during building work
in 1894 and presumably of medieval origin, is now in the local museum.
The churchyard (16199) is irregular in design, its shape on the west and south dictated by the
natural topography. The Tithe map depicts a smaller enclosure around the church, a short
distance away from the road and no longer distinguishable at ground level, but may not be an
accurate representation. A holy well (81710) lay close to the churchyard, though the story
attached to it point to a healing well.
The spur on which the old church sits is naturally irregular with rock outcrops protruding.
North of the church on land that was common until the 19th century are several flat terraces
some of which are certainly artificial constructions that probably supported dwellings
(16094); there is at least one authentic platform and perhaps two others, together with
enclosure boundaries and a trackway. Further earthworks (16095), the most obvious a low
curvilinear bank of unknown function, are apparent just to the south-east of Llandrindod Hall
(30020).
Capel Maelog (2055) which was excavated between 1984 and 1987 lay off Cefnllys Lane less
than 1km east of the town centre. Its foundations have now been reconstructed near County
Hall.

Found out yesterday that I will be laid off again on Jan 15th as my current company shuts down production in their Redmond facility. After an awesome weekend in PDX this is one hell of an emotional roller coaster - so much of how I perceive myself hinges on the work I do and to now go through 2 lay-offs in a quarter simply *sucks*.
ARGH.
Funding dirty coal? Not with our money.
Activists hung a banner on Bank of America's Charlotte, NC headquarters to tell the bank: "Not with our money!" People are fed up with Bank of America putting profits before people and planet. The bank is the largest funder of the US coal industry and the leading foreclosure on Americans' homes. Meanwhile, BoA is laying off 30,000 workers and hiking fees left and right. Enough is enough.
You too can tell Bank of America, "Not with our money!"

January 11-22, 2023 - CBC doesn't seem to broadcast Men's Hockey leagues like the AHL, the ECHL, or Men's USports University hockey ? And Canada just won both Golds at the recent 2023 international University Hockey FISU tournament. But the Gold medal final games, in fact the whole tournament, was not shown on the CBC ? www.flickr.com/photos/74039487@N02/52640201721/in/datepos...
Halifax, Canada Jan 2023 - This time around the IIHF Men's World Juniors hockey tournament is being held in Canada. No games were shown on CBC, and many Canadians were unable to watch Canada's finest male Junior hockey players incl Connor Badard play in their home Country and win the Gold for Canada ?
However, although CBC ignored and did not televise any of the IIHF Men's junior hockey games played, they were sure to make daily news reports and give a lot of air time focusing on an alleged past scandal that had involved a previous Men's IIHF Junior hockey team ? cbc.radio-canada.ca/en/media-centre/official-broadcaster-...

However, CBC shows a different attitude when it comes to supporting or televising many pro sporting events played by male athletes such as the Grey Cup, FIFA, Copa America international Men's soccer football and the Men's World Juniors, and so a huge Canadian fan base is not able to watch Canada's star male pro athletes like Acadia Axemen footballer Bailey Feltmate in the Grey Cup, or Nova Scotia's Jacob Shaffelburg in the Copa international Men's soccer tournament or Connor Badard in the IIHF World Men's Juniors hockey tournament ?

Feb 2024 - Halifax Nova Scotia,
Bell media and CTV have deafened and blindfolded many East Coast residents after eliminating many critical hours of local and community news programming in the Atlantic region ?
Recent Bell Canada Corporate decisions have now left many Maritimers in a vulnerable position ? East Coast Provinces appear to be the target of severe local live Newstime cancellations and these cut-backs have left many Maritimers without their daily Noon news hour updates that are broadcast everyday all week long ? ATV viewers will now be forced to tune into the other station (CBC) where CBC tends to run mostly world international news along with their select choice of the National News, along with lengthy live news conferences that are put on by the PM and other liberal party members ?
Aside from terminating the popular weekday ATV Noon hour news show, CTV has also downsized in half the very popular and iconic , 'ATV live at five' 5 P.M. local community news program, (prompting long time popular host Jason Baxter to seek early retirement) ? Adding to the devistating loss of this much needed news reporting that is traditionally broadcast every week, Bell will also now terminate all weekend Saturday and Sunday local news reporting currently running on ATV ? The cancellation and elimination of so much allotted local news airtime that is normally given to Atlantic Canadians surely threatens the safety and security of residents especially now that there will be a 24 hour local news blackout for 2 full days each and every weekend and even for as much as 3 consecutive days every holiday long weekend ? And so it seems that arch rival CBC has taken over prime time live local news reporting in the Maritimes and Bell Canada is blaming the Liberal Government's new Bill C-18 for them having to slash so many prime time hours of local and Provincial news coverage in the Maritimes ?

It remains unclear why CBC would do this ? Was it arrogance, or was it to be mean spirited, or was it a gender bias issue due to this being Men's pro hockey, or was it maybe a lesson given out to remind Canadians just who is running this Countries main media and who controls the programming ? v=iW0yzPhwC4s" rel="noreferrer nofollow">www.youtube.com/watch?v=iW0yzPhwC4s

It's about a guy in the army who has the blues because he misses his gal Riffy so sings sad love songs until he can see her again. He can't wait for the day when he can dance with her again in his blue suede shoes just like they used to do.
"Do anything that you want to do, but uh-uh,
Honey, lay off of my shoes
Dont you step on my blue suede shoes.
You can do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes."

This dry range is near Gabbs, Nevada.
I remember stopping at a bar in Gabbs on a Saturday night in October 1993. We were low on gas, having foolishly skipped a possibility to fill up at Walker Lake. We'd been driving all day. In the deserted gravel lot, the sky was freezing black and spangled with stars.
I drank a beer and talked to the only other patron -- a grizzled Vietnam veteran who worked at the molybdenum mine. The word molybdenum sounded strange, exotic. In 1993, the price of Molybdenum was in free fall, and in 1994, it would reach an all time low of $3,510 per metric ton ($1.59 per pound). The mine was laying off workers and was in danger of closing.
The gas station in Gabbs was closed. The bartender called the nearest possibility, the old Pony Express station Middlegate, 50 miles north. "You're in luck, they've got gas."
The current spot price for Molybdenum is 32 dollars per pound.
it was almost 10pm and I wanted a Skor bar.
I obviously had to take this photo while the car was still... as I munched away on the next best thing to Starbucks.

STUDENTS' FEDERATION OF INDIA .
' .
Manifesto for JNUSU Elections 2012 .
Friends, .
The forthcoming JNUSU elections are being held in the context of far-reaching political developments the world over as well as in India. The informed choice of the student community will play a significant role in ensuring that the JNU Students' Union remains a progressive instrument of struggle that will fight for the rights of the students and various oppressed sections in campus while linking itself up with the broader struggles outside. .
-Capitalism in Crisis .
Today capitalism is in the throes of the biggest economic crisis .
since the Great Depression. Being a direct outcome of the neoliberal capitalist trajectory driven by international finance capital, the crisis only points to the unsustainability of finance capital-driven globalisation. The global crisis of capitalism has inflicted untold misery on the poor and the toiling masses in different parts of the world. Contradictions have intensified in the advanced capitalist economies, the recent manifestations of which include forcibly imposed austerity measures, large public bailouts for banks and finance corporations which played a big .
role in triggering the global crisis, massive lay-offs, rampant unemployment and widening of the gap between the rich and the poor. The social and economic distress in the developing world also demonstrates the tendency of imperialism to shift the burden of adjustment that accompanies the global economic crisis on to the poor and working masses of the Third World. High food prices leading to a renewed global food crisis and intensifying hunger in Asia and Africa, huge tracts of agricultural land being grabbed by global MNCs. agrarian distress and internal displacement of the · .
peasantry and other petty producers through such land .grabs. and the continuous pressure to do away with national regulations on trade and financial movements and to reduce public welfare expenditure are some examples of economic processes and policies that continually reinforce imperialist hegemony. Imperialism, led by US imperialism, while trying to shift the burden of the crisis on to the developing countries, has been intensifying military interventions through the NATO in West Asia, North Africa and other regions including in · neighbouring .
Afghanistan and Pakistan. . .
However, the assault by the ruling classes on the lives and livelihoods of the people has not gone unchallenged. Resistance movements challenging the hegemony of finance capital like the Occupy Wall Street movement and anti~austerity movements in several European countries have gathered strength. Greece which has been the epicenter of the eurozone crisis, has seen continuous protests and general strikes in the last two years. There have been mass protests, mostly by the youth in Spain, and general stn"kes by workers in Portugal, Italy. France, Britain and other countries. Students and youth are in the forefront of protests against public spending cuts in education and hikes in tuition fees. SeveralLatin American countries like Venezuela, Ecuador, and BorJVia along with socialist Cuba have been putting up stiff resistance to US imperialism. The people of Palestine .

Assaults by the Ruling C'lasses on the People of India .
In our own country. the neoliberal policy regime in place .for more than two decades has resulted in intensified exploitation for the working class, the peasantry, the poor and all sections of toiling masses. More than a quarter million peasants have committed suiCide in the last decade and a half. In other words, it means one suicide every half an hour. The sheer scale and nature of this human tragedy is unprecedented and unheard of in history. While the forcible suppression of workers' rights (examples abound .
from Honda to Maruti) has become commonplace in urban India, .
the last two decades have also witnessed increasing .
displacement of peasants and agricultural workers through .
indiscriminate land acquisitions for corporate-led industnalization. .
A large majority in the country has been facing under-nutrition. .
extreme poverty and livelihood crises Such processes have .
vigorously reinforced the class-cas~ inequalities that already .
.
exist in the society. .
On the one hand, the ruling classes, mainly represented by the .
two large bourgeois parties, the Congress and the BJP, have .
increasingly gravitated towards glObal elite interests. The lndo~US .
Nuclear Deal, defense cooperation with the US, and repeated .
attempts to allow FDI in retail and to facilftate corporate entry in .
Indian agriculture bear testimony to the growing anti-people .
posturing of the ruling classes. On the other hand, movements .
.
against anti-people policies and destruction of livelihoods are continuously building up amongst workers, peasants and various other sections of oppressed masses. From the struggle against Reliance's Maha Mumbai SEZ and the struggle by the Maruti workers in Manesar to nurses' struggles, unprecedented united actions by trade unions and agitations by students in various parts of the country against naked profiteering in the education -.
sector, tidal wave.s of popular struggles have begun to rise up to defend people's rights and livelihoods. Movements led by the organised Left for ensuring food security in the country, iarmers' movements in Rajasthan for rights to. water a·nd the struggle for house-sites for the displaced and homeless people in Andhra Pradesh have been some of the significant struggles that challenged the neoliberal assault on the ·working people. The historic judgement, wherein 215 government officials were .
convicted for brutalising Adivasis (17 of the officials held for rape) in Vachathi, Tamil Nadu. was the triumph of .a prolonged an.d courageous fight by the people, led by the CP.I(M} and mass organisations like Tamil Nadu Tribal Association and AIDWA The organised Left is in the forefront of movements against khap panchayats in Haryana, the two-t_umbler system in Andhra Pradesh and wapartheid walls" in Tamil Nadu. SFI has been a part of all these stru.ggles. both in solidarity and in terms of .
participation. .
The brazen. naked manner in whioh the UPA-11 government has reduced the Indian State to nothing more than an instrument of primitive accumulation for the ruling ~lasses is unprecedented in the history of andependent fndia From the 2G Scam. S-Band/Oevas-Antrix scam. CWG Scam and the KG basin scam to the latest ·coal-gaten scam. the sheer number of corruption scandals that have hit the Indian firmament during this period is mind-boggling. Enormous financial concessions to the corporate sector are the order of the day. even as public expenditure on ·rood distribution, education and health are being squeezed to periefit big private players. Human rights violations and atrocities contiAue to be perpetuated on the people in Kas~mif and in the North-East by the Indian State, in the name of "national security" .
and backed by draconian laws like AFSPA. .

Welcome back 1G21! After a long lay off after various stock and loco issues (due no money being spent on them) 87006 returned to 1G21 1651 Euston - Birmingham on September 4th 2006. The viewpoint is by pass bridge just South of Leighton Buzzard
I did take an icecream cone from a small child to take this picture.
I'm on a weight kick right now, I feel enormous. So I'm trying to lay off of sweets, junk food, and meat.
"Hiding her secrets her life's spinning faster..."
Just a fancy term for lay-off. But I still have a job to go back to next Monday. In the mean time, I've had a great Thanksgiving break. I reclaimed 1/3 of my basement and will reclaim the rest tomorrow, I got our exterior Christmas decorations up, the tree up, most of the inside decorations, I raked, cleaned the kitchen, cleaned the bathroom, cleaned the bedroom, swept the house, and still managed to find time to get most of our Christmas shopping done. And spend plenty of quality time with Owen. So far, it's been a great break.
And I even got to see a sunrise on Lake Michigan this morning. A tad cold, but the hike was worth it.
Racing returned to Werribee after a long lay off due to the drought. Jockey Linda Meech relaxes between races in the jockey room.
So far I only know of one friend who has been affected by the Microsoft layoffs but I am concerned there will be more. And even one is one too many because I know she's in shock right now. And I hate that. Although I really do believe these things can lead to more interesting options in life.
At one point I worked for a company that was merged into the parent company. I was not layed off but my job was affected. After 3 months under the new regime I marched into HR and asked them to lay me off. And they agreed. My job had changed so much and in ways I hated. It was one of the best things I ever did.
I took a whole year off. I loved it! And when it was time I found new work. My timing was not great. There was a big local layoff about the time I started looking for a new job. But there's always opportunity if you look. And talk to people and have the abiity to re-imagine yourself.
So I know this friend will be fine. She's scrappy. Still it's hard to go through. And I'm wondering who else has been affected.
And it was a jam packed work day. But I guess that was good. No time to dwell. Little emergencies that eventually were solved.
So now I will sit back.
This guy looks like a banker. I have no idea if he is. I just said he looks like one. Lay off man, I found it at a surplus store. No, I never met the guy. (Glass plate negatives are the new emo.)
Taj-ul-Masajid is a Mosque situated in Bhopal, India. The name is also spelt as Taj-ul-Masjid. However the correct Name is Taj-ul-Masajid and not Taj-ul-Masjid. "Masajid" means "Mosques" (Plural of "Masjid") and "Taj-ul-Masajid" literally means "Crown Among Mosques". It is the largest Mosque in India.
HISTORY
The construction of the Mosque was initiated during the reign of the Mughal Emperor Bahadur Shah Zafar by Nawab Shah Jahan Begum (1844–1860 and 1868–1901) of Bhopal (Wife of Baqi Mohammad Khan) and continued to be built by her daughter Sultan Jahan Begum, till her lifetime. The mosque was not completed due to lack of funds, and after a long lay-off after the War of 1857, construction was resumed in 1971 by great efforts of Allama Mohammad Imran Khan Nadwi Azhari and Maulana Sayed Hashmat Ali Sahab of Bhopal. The construction was completed by 1985 and the entrance (eastern) gate was renovated grandly using ancient motifs from circa 1250 Syrian mosques by the contribution of the Emir of Kuwait to commemorate the memory of his departed wife.
ARCHITECTURE
The Mosque has a pink facade topped by two 18-storey high octagonal minarets with marble domes. The Mosque also has three huge bulbous domes, an impressive main hallway with attractive pillars and marble flooring resembling Mughal architecture the likes of Jama Masjid in Delhi and the huge Badshahi Mosque of Lahore. It has a courtyard with a large tank in the centre. It has a double-storeyed gateway with four recessed archways and nine cusped multifold openings in the main prayer hall. The Quibla wall in the prayer hall is carved with eleven recessed arches and has fine screens of trellis work. The massive pillars in the hall hold 27 ceilings through squinted arches of which 16 ceilings are decorated with ornate petaled designs.
ANNUAL CONGREGATION
Aalmi Tablighi Ijtima is an annual three-day congregation that draws people from all over the world. It was held at Taj-ul-Masajid until it was shifted to Islam Nagar outside the city due to shortage of space.
WIKIPEDIA
On a day out with my wife we stopped for breakfast at a small garden centre just on the outskirts on Edinburgh. This wee chap and his chums kept me entertained for ages, in fact my wife had to drag me away. Great to get out again after a long lay off due to work and other things.
Hinchliffe Stadium in Paterson NJ was built during the Great Depression with grants from the federal government. A large portion of the labor came from layed off mill workers in Paterson NJ.
That federal investment in a construction project gave Paterson a 10,000 seat stadium that was used through the mid-1990s. Now in need a major renovations voters approved a ballot measure in 2009 to restore this historic structure.
