A Deeper Understanding
The book was
Always with
Her
She brought it
From her country
Whenever I asked
About it
She quickly changed
The subject
One day she told me
About a man
Who had waited
Ten years
For her to return
With tears in her eyes
She said "Mica, I think
That is true love"
I shall always remember
Keyong
And wonder
About the book

The McGee group is going to the ends of the earth to understand how precipitation patterns respond to climate change. Recognizing that past changes provide unique opportunities to test our understanding of the climate system, the group is building high-resolution records of past precipitation changes in sensitive regions around the world using natural precipitation archives such as lake deposits and stalagmites. In the past two years this work has taken the group to shorelines preserving records of large ancient lakes in the deserts of the western U.S. and subtropical South America, to caves in the Yucatan peninsula and deep inside islands in Vietnam's Ha Long Bay, and onto a drill rig sampling deeply buried lake sediments in the high tropical Andes.

BILL MOYERS: You say, "…the way the human mind is built, antipathy can impede comprehension." Rationality. "Hating protestors, flag burners and even terrorists makes it harder to understand them well enough to keep others from joining their ranks."
ROBERT WRIGHT: It's a tricky balance to strike because on the one hand, understanding terrorists and how they became terrorists, which is in our interests if we want to discourage the creation of more terrorists, tends to involve a kind of sympathy that in turn can lead you to say they are not to blame for what they did.
And you don't want to say that because as a practical matter you have to punish people when you can when they do bad things. So you don't want to let go of the idea of moral culpability but you do need to kind of put yourself in their heads. And that is really a great challenge in the modern world.

One of the things that really astounds me about GSD's is their intelligence level. I can actually talk to Kelly and ask her something in a form of a sentence and she makes eye contact and understands and responds if necessary. You can see it in their eyes, they understand us quite well.
I wanted a moody shot, so I processed this into BW.
Dermal fillers and Botox are both popular ways of regaining a youthful appearance. However, these two forms of non-surgical facelift are very different procedures. It is important to understand the difference before approaching a provider offering Botox or dermal fillers Essex and beyond.
Dermal fillers, such as eye, chin, and lip fillers Essex wide, are substances that are injected into the skin to add volume to the soft tissues and to fill out wrinkles. Hyaluronic acid, which occurs naturally in the skin, is the most common dermal filler, however, others can be used, and you should check exactly what the filler contains when you go for your initial consultation. Botox reduces wrinkles by paralysing or reducing muscle movements in the face. The results of Botox last between four to six months, whereas the results of dermal fillers can last up to eighteen months.
While dermal fillers Essex wide and Botox differ in many aspects, one thing that they share is that they should only be undertaken by a qualified expert. Undertaken properly, both are safe and non-invasive aesthetic procedures that can improve the look of the skin and increase an individual’s confidence.
Understanding Leeds Most Common Crimes
Leeds is the largest city in the county if West Yorkshire, that is highly popular and known for its shopping, nightlife, universities, and sport. It is a city also known for its parks and beautiful green spaces that make it a very appealing city for tourists and visitors.
However, in past years Leeds has been known and recognized for its high crime rate. This is something that has reflected negatively on the city, deterring visitors and impacting on Leeds residents’ movements around the city. Despite Leeds’s crime ridden past, the past year or so has shown an overall decline in crimes committed, with a 2.6 per cent reduction in offences in West Yorkshire in 2019/20, and around 7,600 fewer victims, according to the West Yorkshire Police.
What are these crimes that are still being committed?
New police data, obtained by the Yorkshire Evening Post under the Freedom of Information (FOI) ACT, has revealed the nine most commonly recorded crimes in north Leeds wards from April 2019 to March 2020. Here they are:
1. Violence Without Injury

2. Burglary – Residential

Paris 2011- fun times in parisOVERHEARD: AMERICANS IN PARIS " I bought a full box of PIERRE HERME macaroons for a dinner party. I could not resist. Please, I need four replacement macaroons for the ones I ate this afternoon! ", said Elena Bravo to the understanding PIERRE HERME clerk.
PIERRE HERME is a new comer to the MACAROON WARS of PARIS. Their macaroons are extremely tasty and absolutely beautiful. they are a top contender for the FIRST PLACE along with another new macaroon pastry shop: CHRISTOPHE ROUSSEL who hails from the south of France and is making his mark with incredible unique flavors.
CHRISTOPHE ROUSSEL has a first, and it is the most outstanding new macaroon:::the chocolate covered chocolate macaroon: Sure to win laurels as the MOST UNIQUE MACAROON in the PARIS MACAROON WARS OF 2011!
So, is Fauchon and Laduree in the THREE STAR CATEGORY?
Bizarrely, YES
I went for another round of the Macaroon Wars and found FAUCHON and LADUREE to both be wanning today of the wallop of gourmet chocolate taste. Granted both are highly desirable in many circles. Both are high end gourmet fashion houses. Both are uniquely designed with signature decor and highly prized locations. Both are so-so compared to the two new upstarts and an old competitor.
The upset is ANGELINA on the rue Rivoli across from the jardins du tullieries. It really kicked the two top well known macaroon producers out of the competition! !
ANGELINA produced a mac with a lovely color and chocolate taste that lingered delicately on one's palate.
Two top contenders have falling stars ( Fauchon & Laduree ).
An old institution moves in ( ANGELINA).
Two newer macaroon shops shine and sparkle ( Pierre HERME and Christophe ROUSSEL ).
And one big producer steps up to the palate ( Eric KAISER ).
The Paris Macaroon Wars are ON!
Wow. Never did I expect the two top tourist and chi-chi Paris macaroon haunts to be only THREE STARS instead of a four or five.
The Macaroon Wars continue onward to new heights, and surprisingly, new lows.

My understanding is that the government wants to sell off this block to developers (that could have been a misunderstanding and it was about the owner/zoning). Residents have hung out flags and banners in protest. The adjacent development project Northern Street pedestrian shopping area, was mostly without tenants in the new high-end retail space and condos.
As of 2010 the nearby Cinema Moscow is also being threatend by redevelopment. Many architectural and urban icons of the city have already been lost, like the Youth House Tower.
