0 Prof Grange Villain Or Victim

Prof Grange Villain Or Victim
by Chikwe Ihekweazu and Ike Anya.

Watching both AIT and the NTA's national network news (beamed around the world) on Friday the 11th of April brought extreme sadness to many in the health profession and to all those interested in the health of Nigerians. Prof. Adenike Grange, accomplished professor of paediatrics, president of the International Paediatrics Association and until recently Nigeria's Minister for Health was led to court to defend herself and 11 others on a 56-count charge of graft involving about N300 million (~2.5m). She was denied bail and escorted by operatives of the Economics and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) back into detention. Face down behind dark glasses she must have been wondering how she got into this mess.

Her appointment in July 2007 brought hope to most of us Nigerians. For the first time in a long while a credible, obviously competent, apparently incorruptible Nigerian was appointed to look after the health of Nigerians. She had risen to the pinnacle of her career and was recognized as such by her peers, a most critical group. Like our president, she had obviously not sought this political position. The story was that a wife of one of the 2nd term Governors who was particularly influential in the emergence of the president had heard her speak at an international conference. Thrilled by the awe in which she was held by the international community, she and her husband eagerly nominated her following the unlikely emergence of President Yar'Adua.

At this point, our health indicators were as low as they have ever been. Nigeria's maternal mortality ratio (death during and around child birth), one of the most important indicators about population health had worsened from 704 to 800 deaths in 100,000 life births between 2000 and 2004, one of the lowest in the world. Epidemics of measles and meningitis have remained recurrent themes in Nigeria despite the existence of vaccines. Nigeria is still the biggest threat to the eradication of Polio. In addition, health services were in dire straits. A sitting vice president was flown abroad for a knee strain and the current president also had to undergo the minor inconvenience of a trip to Germany to treat "catarrh"....a good indication of their confidence in health services in Nigeria. South Africa became the favoured destination of Nigerians that could afford basic health care. What then was the fate of the average Nigerian? We celebrated the arrival of Professor Grange.

Listening to her at the Lancet Annual Lecture in 2007 she articulated her programme to an international audience. She identified her greatest challenges in achieving her goals as the divergence between policy formulation and implementation; the rigidity of the civil service; the challenges of managing a sector where the lines of management are poorly defined between the different tiers of government; a sector where the most crucial arm of health care delivery (primary health care) is in the weakest arm of government (Local Government); and a low consumer awareness of what to expect and demand in terms of their health. So it was a breath of fresh air when the honourable Minister declared that:

"Health must be seen, felt and palpated by every Nigerian Household".

How did this dream fall apart? The charges against the minister are mostly in the public domain. A "whistle blower" in the ministry, a civil servant, not satisfied after being "cheated" in the sharing of an unofficial Christmas bonus in the ministry was said to have leaked information to the EFCC. To further complicate matters, the money was part of the funds from the 2007 budget for which there was an explicit presidential order to return all unspent funds to the central treasury. Prof Grange is reported by the press to have admitted signing off on the payments as was submitted to her by civil servants in her ministry, without understanding the implications ther. She has maintained that she knew nothing about the use to which the funds were put until they appeared on the pages of newspapers and insists that she has not benefited personally from the funds. The matter is in court and it is up to the judiciary to sieve through the evidence and assign blame, but we seek to discuss the wider implications of this to the anti-corruption campaign of the present administration.

Unlike in any previous corruption allegation in Nigeria, the consensus of most Nigerians, individually and in collective bodies has been one of sympathy to the travails of Prof. Grange; sympathy at her apparent naivety in the ultra-corrupt terrain of the Nigerian civil service. Sympathy that she is paying a price for not being good enough at "the game" and trusting her subordinates to be bound by the same principles that she is bound by. This naivety has cost her dearly, and maybe cost us even more.

Part of the disputed funds was allegedly used to fund a retreat by the Committee on Health of the Senate of the Federal Republic. One would wonder the Ministry's rationale in funding this? The senate has been sitting on "The National Health Bill" for close to over three years. The importance of the bill is thus: The most critical aspect of health care delivery; primary health care is left in the arms of the weakest part of governance in Nigeria: the Local Government. Prof. Grange was desperate to get this bill passed and has argued severally that for things to move forward we need to address this legislative dilemma. To quote her;

"....the absence of a National Health Act to back up the National Health Policy has been a fundamental weakness which needed to be tackled frontally. This weakness means that there is no health legislation describing the national health system and defining the roles and responsibilities of the three tiers of government and other stakeholders in the system. This has led to confusion, duplication of functions and sometimes lapses in the performance of essential public health functions"

Now, Grange is in detention, the senate committee is being scrutinised, the health bill is in limbo and the health of Nigerians remains unchanged.

Yes in detention! Her application for bail was rejected. A strange decision, considering that many of our beloved ex-governors who looted the state treasuries with impunity seem to simply appear in court, get bail and go ahead to continue openly displaying the windfall of their time in "service" with effrontery. Of course these ex-governors "have" the resources to rent crowds to come and "express their solidarity". Our chiefs and traditional rulers travel to Abuja to plead their cases. Pages of newspapers are filled by write-ups of "concerned citizens" arguing about their righteousness. The present governors are in the majority their puppets and the state machinery is not spared in protecting their interests. What risks would be posed to the public by releasing Professor Grange?

There is no disguising the fact that Prof Grange made huge errors in judgment. By not giving the activities in her ministry the scrutiny it deserves, by letting these things happen under her watch, by not taking charge of affairs and allowing business-as-usual" she missed a huge opportunity for charting the course of the Ministry of Health. In politics the buck ends on her table. We all read about the authority with which Ngozi Okonjo Iweala changed the culture of both the Ministries of Finance and that of External Affairs, we expected nothing less from Prof. Grange. Her constituencies among Nigerian health care professionals, academics and technocrats and most importantly women will feel particularly sad at this lost opportunity.

However, Prof Grange is definitely not the epitome of corruption she is being made out to be. She is not. While we see and agree with the importance of the statement being made by her trial, we hope that she is not being made a scape-goat, an easy target for the political establishment. It is also pertinent to ask whether the Ministry of Health was the only Ministry that did not return unspent funds to the Treasury. Were others more adept at covering their tracks? While this does not excuse any failings, a thorough investigation should be carried out and the systems of financial control in place in all the ministries will need to be reviewed- if genuine reform and progress is to be made. We watch the trial with one eye on all the other trials.

But ultimately we hope that the vacuum in the leadership of the Ministry of Health does not last too long. This ministry is too crucial to be managed s a secondary department by another minister. It is desperately in need of focused leadership. There is too much at stake.http://www.nigeriahealthwatch.com/

HOW TO DATE A BEAUTIFUL WOMEN?Many times, people are kind of psychology of thought dating beautiful women, because they are assuming that somehow it's too hard, and from my experience, far from the reality of it.

They keep sticking to a woman looks good, and when there is almost no possibility to act differently, but around it. Believe me, good woman used to having guys fawn over them and tell them the whole night, seeing how they are good. They are not so easily affected only say that it looks good. Focus on your personality and point of things about what they like and how it behaves, and come across different than most men.

2nd Understand that no matter what you think in the same class as their own.

Just because a woman is beautiful, and you are nothing more than average, does not mean that they are in a different league than you. If you think it is, then you on a pedestal, no matter how hard you try Sun, and when you see what you do, it will not feel the same kind of appeal that if you treat it as if it is the same level as you.

3rd We understand that other guys will check it out.

You need to be sure, if you go on a date beautiful women. It is largely inevitable that other people will check it out from time to time. Indeed, there is nothing you can do and no reason. The only time you feel like you are, if they feel safe, and I think it could get lost in another man. However, if you know what you're doing, it is unlikely that will happen.http://feeds.feedburner.com/Desigirltk

Keeping It In The Ptolemaic Family When Incest Is Best By Stephanie Dray
Satisfactory back to History Bare a tremendous author who I admire--Stephanie Dray. If you haven't ahead of read her one-time article, Bad Girls of the Bleak World, you will want to! In this day and age she's crash into to talk with us about a very present limb, that also happens to go through extract stage in her new unproven, "Solo of the Nile, "which I reviewed earlier this week.Minus into the open ado... I give you Ms. Dray!"Charge it in the (Ptolemaic) Family: Having the status of Incest is Bestby"Stephanie Dray"Donate are a loutish spin out of doubtfully good reasons why incest is underground and illicit, and the irremediable psychological pasting it does, and the dysfunctional family dynamics it creates. That believed, there's a good dream that the Ptolemaic Board would delimit been occupied with fratricidal thugs and harpies homogeneous if they hadn't made it a practice to bond their siblings.I say this being just about every relationship in the earlier period world was founded upon some usage of abusive power. Seeing that we let your imagination run riot the relationship amid Cleopatra VII and Julius Caesar, and notably the relationship amid Cleopatra and Ensign Antony, both of these love interaction were based on polygonal member interest--in Cleopatra's shell, a long for to take place liven up. Seeing that various accused her of seduction, the fact husk to the same extent she rolled herself out at the feet of the Roman ordinary, she was greater than thirty animation his junior, and completely at his clemency. In this day and age, we would faithfully question the principles of these love interaction, but unmodified the way women were treated in the earlier period world--and homogeneous until recently--her relationships with these men seems sympathetically advocate. Outstandingly to the same extent you exact opposite them with the sexual relationships she was in name only to delimit as the Emperor of Egypt. To wit, she was not only suitable to bond her brother, but to delimit feel sorry for yourself by him.So, how did this come to pass? The Ptolemies considered themselves to be the successors to Alexander the Great--that Macedonian Ruler who beaten the professional world. Ptolemy was his ordinary, and some believed his half-brother. Late Alexander the Enormous died and his progress was washout up, Egypt fell into the hands of Ptolemy and a line was natural. His lass, Arsinoe II, would pro forma the custom of incest. Married off to an old Ruler of Thrace to the same extent she was still a teenager, she was the model survivor. Her life was constantly in danger and she made various sign up escapes, and one from the Seleucid Armed forces marching on her disembark. At some point, Arsinoe seems to delimit genuine that if she refreshing to be safe, she couldn't trust qualities distant her in a straight line family. So, she returned to Egypt and married her full brother, Ptolemy II. Now, the Greeks didn't delimit a custom of incest in their deliver a verdict families...but the pharaohs of Egypt did. By marrying her brother, Arsinoe was able to help be the source of a link amid the new Ptolemaic line and the very old behavior of the relaxed Egyptians. It served her anyway well as she became the first female pharaoh of the Ptolemaic line, deliver a verdict not just as the spouse of the king, but as a king in her own right.Late that, the custom took stop and not coarsely being all the crusty brood were accomplishment it. The Ptolemies bare that incest served some important member purposes. For one, it modest out the riff-raff. Incestuous marriages very nearly ensured that the Macedonian deliver a verdict family would never delimit to delicate its blood with relaxed Egyptians, for whom they seemed to stop some snub. As well, it put the kibosh on social mobility. No determined mini Macedonian or Egyptian boys would grow up with the wish that they, too, may perhaps be pharaoh as long as they worked hard, sucked up, and adulterated the right people. The best an determined man may perhaps protection for was to make his lass a concubine to the king, which shove, if the queen was unplanted, be in agreement him to one day become grandfather and vizier to the afterward king. From now, a custom of Ptolemaic incest modest the pressure of being adulterated by outsiders to a minimum.Just starting out expansion to charge it in the family was that curious powers couldn't get a keep in Egypt. The normal way by which empires encroached upon one additional was by marriage. If I'm the king of the meticulous Seleucid progress, for example, it shove be a good idea to bond my lass off to the Ruler of Egypt. Subsequently, to the same extent the pharaoh is old and watered-down, I may perhaps claim the throne in the name of my grandson with my own army to back me. But if Ptolemaic kings only bond their sisters or daughters or nieces, I don't delimit a charm. So, the hint at for curious swarm and be in charge of was cut-rate by incest. But what of internal conflicts? Obtain, to the same extent you bond your own sisters you can squabble compete over your nephews--all of whom would delimit a claim to your throne. It's an easy set a date for to turn them into sons!You shove assume that the Ptolemaic genetic material pool would get into a lot of intuitive drooling abominations, but observation from a routine towards weight-gain and buggy eyes, the Ptolemies don't clatter to delimit suffered any heritable abnormalities. Unless you count the steadfast establish to letter your siblings as a matter of nature fairly than problem. Allegedly, expertise breeds sneer at and the Ptolemies became a fratricidal lot. The family cut and thrust was callous and deadly; offer was no shelter against dwell in family dynamics. So was it usefulness it? Obtain, the specifics tells us that it was. The Ptolemies ruled Egypt for practically three hundred animation. And if the Become ragged of Actium had out-of-date the unorthodox way, Egyptian society would delimit subjugated western organization. BIOStephanie graduated from Smith, a small women's college in Massachusetts where-to the alarm of her committed professors-she was barred to master Latin. On the other hand, her twist on Chief Eastern Studies gave her a deeper understanding of the repercussion of Egypt's earlier period inappropriateness with Rome, both in conditions of the still-extant tensions amid East and West as well as the worldwide decline of female-oriented religious studies.Back she wrote novels, Stephanie was a lawyer, a prime builder, and a teacher. Now she uses the transformative power of magical common sense to make clear the stories of women in history and enliven the young women of today. She husk gripped by all gear Roman or Egyptian and has-to the alarm of her committed husband-collected a area full of cats and earlier period artifacts.Praise SORCERESS. SEDUCTRESS. Conspirator.

Now the young queen faces an hesitant allotment in a curious land.Uncontrolled to bond a man of the emperor's choosing, Selene will not be in agreement her new husband to rule in her name.

0 Crazy Hot Dog Ladies Is More Like It

Crazy Hot Dog Ladies Is More Like It Image
Today I read an awesome post written by Dr. V of Pawcurious! That woman is great and her blogging skills are impeccable! I love to laugh. She makes me laugh! She posted on why "animal lovers" aren't crazy, anti-social people that hide in their basements with their 10 cats. And it's so accurate! Read it here

How true was that?!? I've had people who know me well and people who don't know me at all ask why I'm helping these dogs when there are starving people. Or why we save abused dogs when so many children are abused?! My answer.."why not?" You have to pick an area to focus on! If you're trying to help EVERY cause out there then you'll be completely overwhelmed! Also, it's frowned upon to see a neglected child, bring it into your home and if they're not claimed in two weeks, keep them or rehome them to a loving home!

Also, I'm a very social person. I love my dogs but I definitely don't spend so much time with them so I can avoid people. In fact, I work with a dog rescue so I have to be a people person and I love it! :)

All of the ladies I work closely with in the rescue are very well put together and social! There are no mullets, wolf sweaters or basement hideaways. Ok..well the wolf sweaters come out from time to time...but only for special occasions! ;) I haven't yet forgotten about makeup and I still attempt a "presentable" state when going out in public. Although..I don't wear heels nearly as often and I haven't visited a hair stylist in a long while...maybe I am on my way out! Eek! I am in better shape though because of all of the walking I now have to do! :D

Because I'm so active with the Rescue, a lot of my Facebook posts or Twitter posts relate to dogs. I also have two dogs and am working on a Dog Boarding business out of my home. Therefore, my posts will reflect what I spend a lot of my time doing. That being said, I'm not the only one getting comments about us "crazy dog people"..I've heard others mention the same thing. Honestly, I don't have as many pictures of my kids as I do of our dogs and the dogs that are fostered or boarded here. Not that I don't love them so much more...but they don't do as many cute things once they reach those pre-teen and teenage years! :P Thank you to my parents for NOT taking many pictures of me during those years too! I don't need to relive my bad fashion mistakes! ;) I don't and never would comment about some peoples millions of pictures of their babies! That's great! Facebook wasn't around when Pax was small or there would be hundreds of pictures of his roly poly cuteness on Facebook as well! Don't judge us crazy animal lovers, we're just passionate about a cause! Oh and we're spreading awareness and sharing...it's just about animals rather than slot-o-mania or chain letters ;) Each to their own! Let us be crazy, but know that we're normal too!

Peace out ~

Oh and if you didn't read the link up there ^ go back and do it! You'll enjoy it.

Professor Marcus S Marriage To Jules A Physicist Ended In Divorce
Ruth Barcan Marcus 1921 to February 19th, 2012"Ruth Barcan Marcus"byHoon Pyo Jeon and Jane Darby MentonFebruary 21st, 2012Yale Daily NewsRuth Barcan Marcus GRD '46, a Yale professor of philosophy and pioneer in the field of quantitative modal logic, died Sunday at her home in New Haven. She was 90.One of Yale's first female professors, Marcus helped carve a place for women in academia, and her groundbreaking research in the philosophy of language, ethics, metaphysics and epistemology put her at the forefront of her field. To her students and colleagues, Marcus was an academic visionary and an inspirational mentor."She had a kind of personal integrity and intellectual integrity that just shone through," said Don Garrett GRD '79, chair of New York University's department of philosophy and one of Marcus' former students. "People sometimes found her intellectually intimidating, but anyone who knew her knew that she was a very dear person with a very clear mind - the most logical of philosophers and philosophical of logicians."Marcus began her revolutionary work in modal logic during the late 1940s when she developed the Barcan formula, which brought a quantitative dimension to the field. Though Marcus initially came under fire for her radical ideas, she continued her research and eventually drew scholarly recognition and acceptance for her work, her colleagues said.Born in New York City in 1921, Marcus grew up in the Bronx and went on to attend NYU, where she graduated with a bachelor's degree in mathematics and philosophy in 1941. Five years later, she earned a doctorate in philosophy from Yale. In 1959, Marcus took her first teaching post as a part-time professor of philosophy at Roosevelt University in Illinois, where she worked until becoming head of the philosophy department at the University of Illinois at Chicago in 1964. Marcus returned to Yale in 1973 as a professor of philosophy and taught in the department until her retirement in 1992.As a professor, Marcus was known for her toughness, but also for her open and supportive attitude.While former students said they initially found her intimidating, they added that they quickly recognized Marcus' warm, generous and funny personality. Former students also described Marcus as an excellent mentor - particularly to women entering academia - and many said she inspired them to pursue careers in philosophy."She was a regular mother hen to her students, coddling us along, scolding us [when] necessary," said Diana Raffman '75 GRD '86, a philosophy professor at the University of Toronto and a former student of Marcus'. "The world is a poorer and much smaller place without Ruth in it."In addition to holding multiple professorships, Marcus also served as chair of the American Philosophical Association from 1976-'83. While serving in the post, she continued to influence the field of philosophy by increasing transparency in hiring practices at academic institutions across the country. She won numerous accolades for her work, including the Guggenheim Fellowship, Yale's Wilbur Cross Medal and the American Philosophical Association's Quinn Prize for service to philosophy.Walter Sinnott-Armstrong GRD '82, a philosophy professor at Duke and one of Marcus' former students, described her as an original thinker whose contributions to logic created a new branch of philosophy."She started off way ahead of the philosophical crowd and led them in new directions," Sinnott-Armstrong said.Colleagues said Marcus influenced all those around her, even beyond her field. Michael Della Rocca, a Yale professor of philosophy who joined the department the year before Marcus retired, said she always supported her younger colleagues, including him.Marcus' talents were not confined to the academic arena - she was also an excellent athlete. As a student at NYU, she was a champion fencer and would have competed at the Olympics had the games not been cancelled because of World War II. Longtime friend and colleague Robert Fogelin GRD '60 recalled that their squash games were as intense as their intellectual debates.Friends and family said they remember Marcus as someone who was equally devoted to her personal and professional lives, adding that her strong will and love of learning were her defining traits."I think she will always be a model of the philosophical life," Sinnott-Armstrong said. "She showed how one can be a serious philosopher with very high standards and a compassionate person."Marcus is survived by her children, Jim, Peter, Katherine and Libby."Ruth Barcan Marcus, Philosopher-Logician, Dies at 90"byMargalit FoxMarch 13th, 2012The New York TimesRuth Barcan Marcus, a philosopher esteemed for her advances in logic, a traditionally male-dominated subset of a traditionally male-dominated field, died on Feb. 19 at her home in New Haven. She was 90.Her death was announced by Yale University, from which she retired in 1992 as the Reuben Post Halleck professor of philosophy.Because of its affinities with mathematics and the hard sciences - disciplines historically unwelcoming to women - logic had long been one of philosophy's most swaggering strains. For a woman of Professor Marcus's generation to elbow her way into the field, then dominated by titans like Willard Van Orman Quine, Rudolf Carnap and Kurt G"odel, was almost unheard of."The rest of philosophy became less male dominated, less macho, more quickly than logic," Stephen Neale, distinguished professor of philosophy at the City University of New York Graduate Center, said in a telephone interview. "She was working in a field which was really run by these giants."Professor Marcus was hailed by colleagues for her work in quantified modal logic. The field was born of the marriage of two existing systems, classical quantified logic and modal logic - a marriage she helped bring about.Quantified logic centers on the roles of words of quantification, like "all, every" and "some," in logical statements. An example of a quantified statement is the sentence "All humans are mortal."Modal logic, by contrast, is concerned with different "modes" of truth - possibility, impossibility, necessity and the like - and the words that convey them. The sentence "Necessarily, humans are mortal" is an example of a modal statement.In the early 1940s, Professor Quine, who taught at Harvard, argued that combining quantifiers and modals produced unintelligible results. Later observers also noted the potential for ambiguity."Once you combine 'necessarily' with 'All humans are mortal,' " Professor Neale explained, "there are actually two ways of doing it: 'Necessarily, all humans are mortal' and 'All humans are necessarily mortal.' They sound the same, and a grammarian would say, 'What's the difference?' But in logic they're quite different."The difference hinges on how much of the sentence the modal word modifies. In Sentence 1, "Necessarily, all humans are mortal," the word "necessarily" casts a wide semantic net: it takes into account not only the real world, but also any hypothetical ones."The comma is a giveaway," Professor Neale said. "You're saying, 'In every possible world, everything that's a human in that world is mortal.' "In Sentence 2, "All humans are necessarily mortal, necessarily" has a narrower scope: it ignores the merely possible and attends only to what actually exists. This sentence means, roughly, "Every human (who actually exists in this world) has the property of being mortal (in every world)."Such issues may seem of small consequence, but the need to talk about them is necessarily the meat of philosophical logic. In the literary arena, questions like these are played out masterfully in the work of Lewis Carroll and Jorge Luis Borges. But philosophy itself lacked a formal framework that would make rigorous discussion possible.Working independently in the mid-1940s, both Professor Marcus and Professor Carnap, who taught at the University of Chicago, devised such frameworks by combining classical quantified logic and modal logic. Professor Carnap's system was rooted primarily in semantics, Professor Marcus's primarily in formal logic."She was the first person to lay down in rigorous fashion a precisely defined system of rules for reasoning with modal and quantificational notions," said Kit Fine, Silver professor of philosophy and mathematics at New York University.Professor Marcus's system, first published under her maiden name, included what came to be known as the Barcan formula. Where Professor Quine had argued that sentences like No. 2 above were unintelligible, the Barcan formula (together with its converse) renders the first and second sentences logically equivalent.Under her formula, "the second one entails the first one," Professor Neale explained. "That is, if all humans are necessarily mortal, then necessarily, all humans are mortal."Like much else in logic, however, the plausibility of the Barcan formula remains the subject of continuing debate.In other work, Professor Marcus examined the philosophical arguments underpinning moral dilemmas.Ruth Charlotte Barcan was born in the Bronx on Aug. 21, 1921, into a satisfying atmosphere of questioning and debate. Her father was a typesetter at The Jewish Daily Forward; a bust of the Barcan household saint, the labor leader Eugene V. Debs, presided over the living room.She earned a bachelor's degree in mathematics and philosophy from New York University, where she was a champion fencer, followed by master's and doctoral degrees in philosophy from Yale.An outspoken advocate for women in philosophy, she taught at what is now the University of Illinois at Chicago and at Northwestern University before joining the Yale faculty in 1973. In retirement, Professor Marcus also taught at the University of California, Irvine.Professor Marcus's marriage to Jules Marcus, a physicist, ended in divorce. She is survived by two sons, James and Peter; two daughters, Katherine Marcus and Libby Marcus; a sister, Hilda Fishback; and three grandchildren.Ruth Barcan Marcus [Wikipedia]

0 A White Room

A White Room
Capture (FROM THE PUBLISHER): At the close of the Victorian Era, society still crude middle-class women to be "the angels of the apartment," emphatically as a first-rate few strived to become something spare. In this time of change, Emeline Evans dreamed of becoming a regard. But once upon a time her blood relation dies all of a sudden, Emeline sacrifices her ambitions and rescues her family from require by marrying John Dorr, a reserved lawyer who can hoard for her family.

John moves Emeline to the exterior Missouri town of Labellum and into an red apartment everyplace her dreariness and be bothered characteristic toward ridiculousness. Equipment twists and turns early her eyes, people watch out at her from happen rooms, and the apartment itself conspires against her. The doctor diagnoses disorder, but the treatment pleasantly reinforces the house's comprise on her mind.

Emeline only finds unguent at the rear of pursuing an occasion to give the poor as an unlicensed regard. Yet in order to catch comfort to the needy she requisite to yourself provocation her husband, whose employer cruelly hunts down and prosecutes unlicensed practitioners. Despite the fact that women are no longer burned at the probability in 1900, wrongdoing is a signal of psychological error, and hysterical women requisite be calm.

A landmark of ridiculousness and secrets, "A Colorless Identify" presents a fantastical off balance into the forgotten cult of domesticity, everyplace one's own home could become a cell and a woman has to be timely to ante something to be free.

REVIEW: I time-honored a copy of this book from Net Galley.

"A Colorless Identify" is told from the perspective of Emeline, a young woman who comes of age at the turn of the century. At any rate Emeline's wishes to barrage a career in tension, she is constrained into a marriage of suitability to John Dorr, a young lawyer, once upon a time her blood relation all of a sudden dies. Vivaciousness as a in recent times married woman is unhappy for Emeline, as she is motivated to a remote town unconscious from her family and requisite live in a apartment she hates and begins to ensure troublesome presences in the apartment. Precisely once upon a time she to yourself defies her husband and society and begins treating the poor as a regard does Emeline find her excuse for living and become spare loyal.

Despite the fact that the consideration amid Emeline's wishes and society's burden appealed to me, I began to lose have to do with in this book once upon a time Emeline began rambling in the apartment. "All the furniture in the parlor was compelling, dancing. The lithe appendages of the crass tables and spaces were greatly perversion and twirling. [...] I screamed and grabbed at the snaking extremities. I took capture of the leg of a supervise and snapped it off." This is the persona of an insane person, and it was scrap exceptional person that Emeline was diagnosed with "disorder," a in style elucidation for any and all female complaints at the time. Emeline is simply chop up by this, to the same extent a variety of women were put into an safe haven if they did not show practical improvement. Emeline's separate regard that she saw and heard pack that were not real made me question her dependability as a spokesperson.

The only person that saves Emeline from the torments of her own mind is her promising have to do with in providing vital medical care to the poor in her town who cannot stark it. However, only specialized doctors are legal to practice any type of medication, so Emeline is as again putting herself in outsized ante have to her social deviance be revealed. To the same extent she is convincingly stumped, she is rapt and threatened again with an insane safe haven and a lobotomy; "'They send a run through and incision out a chunk of your plan.' He crowd an spectacular cook's knife toward my common sense, gritted his teeth, and ripped the imaginary table knife back up."

Despite the fact that Emeline's story does supply a happy ending, distinctive look at points were refined beyond belief. Core, I couldn't look into that record land of a town could be so stand for and unforgiving. Plus, I couldn't look into that Emeline could supply lost sluggish her husband's back working medication for so long. And the image of a well-born and affluent married woman of the time stand-in a vital abortion on her maid seemed whimsical. Plus, the change in her husband from a chill and resigned man to a heated and religiously rectify one was full of twists and turns for me to misappropriate.

Yet in spite of my concerns with the look at choices, I did be keen on this landmark justly well and in inflexible, the be successful of a woman who is unable to barrage her thoughts in the role of of the society and time in which she lives. Emeline as a character was fierce, and my wish to see everyplace her life took her was the only excuse I read this to the finish.

0 Mind Control 10 Ways To Feel Confident Even When You Arent

Mind Control 10 Ways To Feel Confident Even When You Arent

"Original Fake" Photo Credit: courtesy of MashKulture"

Is your self-confidence natural, or a daily struggle?

Many people's confidence naturally wavers from day to day, leaving them too timid or confused at just the wrong time. Whether you are naturally confident or could use some better eye contact with your life, setting in place a few simple strategies goes a long way to stoke your inner confidence.

If you think you're not especially smart or capable, or that failure is a given no matter how hard you try, you're right.

And if you believe you're brilliant and can accomplish anything you set your mind to, you're right.

Amplifying your inner confidence is like any other skill you develop; you can do it in a blink. Day by day, step by step, you will get closer to your goals. No one runs a marathon fueled by decision alone. It takes days, weeks, and months of consistent exercise before your muscles, lungs and stamina will harmonize enough to give you winning results.

Same with confidence. Use these 10 tips to start appearing as confident on the outside as you will soon feel on the inside.

1. IT'S NOT ABOUT YOU. Understand people's actions, even when hurtful, rarely have anything to do with you. It's easy to read into the negativity of others and see it as a slight to our personality or challenge to our ego. Yet this type of reaction can trigger unnecessary stress and prevent you from focusing on the positive things in your life. People are people; there's never a need to link their behavior and your happiness. Knowing this gives you freedom to feel the confidence you deserve.

2. BUY CLOTHES THAT FIT. Wearing clothes that fit well and flatter, no matter the shape of your body, provides an enormous boost to your self esteem. Don't wait until you've arrived at a magical ideal to start dressing your best. Clothes never make the person, but it's hard to feel confident inside when your outside sends signals of uncertainty. Love what you're wearing and the world is likely to love it too.

3. KEEP LAUGHING. Let your brain give vent to the endorphins that will fill you with authentic happiness and internal confidence. Laughter releases some of the tension that invariably builds in your body each day. Pepper your routine with the people or media that make you most happy. You don't have to overdo it, but a bit of levity goes a long way toward elevating your level of confidence.

4. EMBRACE THE QUIET. Many people are eager to populate every waking second with activity. With a world moving at the speed of broadband, the problem blooms more with every passing day. Realize you can be comfortable alone with your thoughts and you will provide your internal processes the space needed to develop. This will make you more comfortable with yourself, helping you appear more confident to others.

5. MAKE A BUDGET. If this isn't natural for you, take the time to do it anyway. Claiming control of your finances is an early step to a healthy attitude about money. Though many people believe confidence comes with having lots of cash, confidence accompanies a clear picture of what you have and what you need.

6. DON'T GOSSIP. Exit conversations that swim in hearsay. Indulging in idle chatter might make you feel in the loop, but the feeling is fleeting and will leave you wondering what others are saying about you when you're not around. Take the high road - you'll feel better inside and appear far more confident to others around you.

7. DO AS YOU SAY AND SAY AS YOU DO. This doesn't mean you have to draw neat lines through all of life's to-do's, but if you articulate your goals, and start to accomplish them, easy ones first, you will develop a mindset of success. This, in turn, makes it easier to feel confident. Your goals could be anything from running your first 5K to finally cleaning out the garage; learning how to strum a guitar or play the piano. Whatever your goals, find something you truly desire, make a promise to see it through to the end, then feel the confidence of success.

8. MAKE PEACE WITH YOUR BODY. You will always want to stay active and improve your health, but your confidence comes with the understanding that no matter your size, shape, number of wrinkles or height, you are a person who deserves love and dignity from yourself and those around you. Truly know this, and confidence will bleed through your skin.

9. REALIZE YOU KNOW MORE THAN YOU THINK YOU DO. All those things you think everyone else" just knows"? Well, they don't. If you don't know something, there's no shame in asking for the answer. Admitting you don't have the answer is the first step toward finding it, and the right answers pave the road to confidence.

10. BE ENTHUSIASTIC. Playing it cool is a great way to ignore your honest emotions and bury the authentic you. Be happy and excited, and allow the world to see it. Your joy will be infectious, your confidence contagious.

You don't have to follow all 10 of these tips, but they are starters that will help you find your internal confidence and boost your sense of self belonging. No one feels confident 100% of the time, but there are steps you can take to make yourself feel far more confident than you probably do now.

Start with any of the 10 items on this list, and start feeling better inside out today!

Confidence is the key to EVERYTHING.

Ever wondered exactly how self confident you actually are?

0 General Guidelines On Approaching

General Guidelines On Approaching Image
Use humour to get you started - or even give you a head-start:) Ross Jeffries: "Let's talk about using humour for a minute. Not only do most women LOVE a guy who can make them laugh; laughing shifts a woman's physiology and mental focus, interrupting her thought patterns and creating a temporary blank, which YOU can then fill in. Just think about it a second.

Have you ever been in a rotten mood, and then a friend suddenly makes you laugh? What happens? You start feeling a hell of a lot better, don't you?" What Ross Jeffries suggests as an almost perfect approach is using a humorous comment to get her to laugh, then all you have to do is to follow up with anything to keep the conversation flowing towards a possibly pattern-like talk, eliciting values or any other technique described in this guide you have chosen to use.

You can even border on slightly negging her, if you go Mystery-style with a drop-dead gorgeous girl, or smutty, if you go GMstyle, but those two are already more advanced techniques. If however you are dealing with a nice and cute (of 7 or 8 on a scale of 10), you can also make her feel good by complimenting her looks for starters (see Negging for why this is not such a good idea with a drop-dead gorgeous model-type babe of 10).

Update. Speed Seduction newsletter, Ross Jeffries: "For me, one of my favorite ways to meet women is to use some type of humorous approach that gets her laughing. Why is this so important?

1. Laughter sets a woman at ease and puts her off guard.
2. Getting her laughing shows that you are confident and don't take the process of meeting her too seriously, unlike a desperate hard-up loser HAS to succeed, YOU are a fun guy, enjoying your exciting life and creating an opportunity for HER to step into it and have some fun too?IF she plays her cards right.
3. Humor is a way to test to see if SHE has a personality. If she is a mean, unhappy be-yatch, why bother?
4. MOST IMPORTANTLY, LAUGHTER GIVES YOU A BEHAVIORAL RESPONSE from her that you can mention, incorporate, and future pace into HER IMAGINING CONTINUING TO HAVE FUN WITH YOU LATER!

Offer entertainment and confidence with speed.

ASF: "As far as you are concerned the girl has to be entertained by you. If she sees other guys as being more confident and more entertaining she most certainly will excuse herself to the bathroom or the bar to hook up with them later. That's why its important to work quickly so that you do not take more time than is necessary to secure a chick (take her home or spend some quality KINO time with her on the couch/dancefloor somewhere). Getting numbers on their own is unreliable."

The 3 steps of approaching. ASF:


BEGINNING - preparation... clothing, props, initiate an entertaining and interactive conversation (that is what an OPENER is all about).
MIDDLE - using entertaining stories and routines, you convey the humour, confidence and the other typical attractive traits, use NEGS to make them chase you, test them (stop conversation to see if they reinitiate it) and look for the indicators to see if closing is worth doing (like KINO, position and body language, laughter, etc), usually 3 positive indicators.

The awfully cause of reply had been detailed to neuro linguistic programming (NLP), and like the technique in itself is not so bad, neuro linguistic programming has generated a lot a some hardly press all through the stay some time.

Derren Brown And Nlp Never Trust A Magician
You have to admire a person who can create the kind of publicity that Derren Brown has. Links to his Racetrack scam/Russian scam and BMX Present stunt have swamped inboxes like only the best viral marketing can do. But let's stop for a moment. Can we really trust a magician?WHAT IS MISDIRECTIONMisdirection is a stock tool of the magician. The magician draws your attention to one thing whilst manipulating another out of the view of the audience. FOOLING THE EXPERTSI had to hold in my laughter as I listened to a recording of a teleconference with so called experts in covert hypnosis discussing the "BMX" trick. In his show "Trick of The Mind", Derren appears to create a false memory in the subject which makes the guy think that he always wanted a BMX rather than a leather jacket. Without giving a line by line explanation of everything that happened in the skit (I highly recommend you watch it), ANYONE with any real covert hypnosis/NLP skills would know that what Derren does in the clip is INSUFFICIENT to induce a false memory! A mild trance induction caused by a handshake interrupt and a quick "false memory story" laced with embedded bicycle references won't work. At the end of the show, Derren directs our attention to the embedded commands used. Brilliant misdirection! There are a ton of other ways this trick could have been done (any one them far more probable). Please be wary of anyone using Derrens clips as evidence of the proof that NLP and Covert Hypnosis work.Derren, you are a genius!Oh what the hell....here it is if you have never seen it....
