For instance, as part of an extensive multivariate analysis, Stephen W. Baron’s 2004 inquiry into youth homelessness through the lens of general strain theory, taken from a sample of street youths, discovered homelessness to have a significant positive correlation with future criminal behaviour. The sample generally consisted of unemployed youths, more than half of which were male, that were not enrolled in school, and had been living without a fixed address in the lasts 12 months. The results revealed that homelessness was associated with property, violent, and total crime (Baron, 2004). This is supportive of Agnew’s theory, as general strain theory asserts that crime happens in reaction to strain as a means to achieve revenge against whom they
Social order,and economics in society explains crime by reference to the Social Structure theory. This type of theory makes important relationships among social institutions and recount the types of behavior that differinate groups of people from certain Individuals.There are three major types of social structure theories. The first theory is social disorganization, and this theory lack of alerting, not even development of culture, social change, and conflict, This is the conditions that exist when faced with these conditions. A sociological approach that propose a separation between socially and sub culturally sanctioned goals and means as the source of criminal behavior, and this is the strain theory. Culture conflict theory perspective on crime suggest that the main cause of being a criminal can be found in a inconsistennse of values in the middle different socialized groups over what is acceptable . These theory focus on the way in which society is organized. They are organise by their group, or class. In comparison all of these theories believe that social structure in
"When a man is denied the right to live the life he believes in, he has no choice but to become an outlaw," (Kazi, 2017). The modern societies around the world put a high importance on preventing criminal activity and rectifying behavior that leads to crime. In an ongoing struggle against corruption, many sociologists, and psychologists have done in-depth research to understand what is the cause of crime in our society. Initially, in 1893, Emile Durkheim first came up with the idea called Anomie Theory to explain why offenses take place in our communities. Durkheim reported that crimes took place in our society because there was a lack of ethical norms and social standards within our communities (Walsh, 2018).However, almost half a century later, Robert K. Merton developed Merton's Strain Theory to thoroughly explain why some people in our society are more likely to commit crimes than the others who don’t. Merton’s Strain Theory argues that corruption not only occurs in our communities because we lack norms in our society, but are also caused by the strains that are present among us as individuals which influence people to commit the crime. In his explanation, people will resort to achieving success through illegitimate means when they are blocked from acquiring success through legitimate means (Walsh, 2018). After studying the classical strain theories, I think that Merton’s Strain Theory explains street crimes such as robbery, theft, assault, and drug dealing better than
The limitations of Merton’s theory of strain can be argued as the study, which he has compiled is only concentrated on working class crime, not the middle class and white collar crimes. Furthermore, there is an over prediction because not all individuals under strain become criminals. For example, women are under most strain with unequal pay, yet statistics prove that women commit less crime than men.
Criminology data show a strong correlation between undereducated children and juvenile crime. Children who struggle academically in school, have poor attendance, are expelled, or drop out, likelihood to commit crime increases. The social skills such as learning how to have ownership through deadlines, following instructions, and overall dealing with people constructively, are thrown out the door when a student doesn’t finish school. A child who doesn’t end up having a proper education soon realizes he or she can’t get certain jobs due to their insufficient education and feels hopelessness. According to social strain theory, his or her feeling towards social differences are magnified and pushes him or her to attain the “American Dream” or financial security through
Within the social science field, strain theory has been expanded and advanced by many theorists over the last century. Created by Emile Durkheim in a study surrounding suicide, it quickly adapted to other areas of criminology and sociology. Strain theory can explain many forms of crimes, it cannot account for all forms of crime and deviant behaviour within society. Strain is prevalent throughout many forms of societal life, but not all can be linked to the crimes of which are committed by those within society, it tends to turn a blind eye to some forms of crime of which have not been acknowledged by the theorists. Though explicitly arguing the idea that strain theory does not account for all types of deviance, this will also include the arguments which have been put forward to say that strain theory does account for all kinds of crime.
The strain theory explains the criminal behavior and is a breakdown of why people commit crimes. The theory was developed by an American Sociologist Robert K. Merton (1910-2003). Merton believed that the society influences deviance and plays a huge role in criminals committing crimes. Emile Durkheim (1858-1957) presented the earliest version of the strain theory. He believed that well-built societies set restrictions on individual goals, meaning that the person was given a chance to achieve their goals. Durkheim theory centers on the pursuit of limitless goals, whereas Merton theory targets the lower economic individuals who are incapable of achieving more limited economic goals.
The author explains Strain Theory as being "certain strains or stressors increase the likelihood of crime" (Hartmann, 27). The text goes into an explanation that as people become more uncomfortable, as they feel more uneasy, they are more likely to be involved in criminal activity. This happens due to an increase of anger, frustration and depression (Hartmann, 27). These feelings create a mindset in the individual that is more capable of justifying taking actions to improve their environment.
Social disorganization theory assisted in developing links crime rates in neighborhood ecological characteristics. This knowledge is based on certain conditions that are related to the disorganized urban environment, and have an enormous impact on the crime rates in these neighborhoods and communities. The major trends or facts of social disorganization are university, college and school dropout rates, unemployment, low income, deteriorated housing, high single parent’s rate. Shaw and McKay’s contentions that social areas have different mixes of criminal and conventional influences, and that the exposure to learning of criminal values, mainly by associating with others in the same neighborhood, is the key source of crime (Cullen, Agnew & Wilcox, 2014, pg. 99). Anomie assisted in identifying peoples responds to known gaps between accepted societal values and those values based on conditions. These strain are focused towards criminal motivations, and people who are economically humiliated in our society will be ready to humiliate others alike. In this particular situation, people choose criminal activities such as; drug trafficking, robbery and car theft and violence. Frustration and thwarted aspiration lead to the search for avenues of escape from a culturally induced intolerable situation; or
Throughout the year the violent crime rate in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, has rapidly increased. Many others have tried to conclude why the crime rates are sky rocketing. My own conclusion on why violent crime rate in increasing is because of the strain on an individual. The strain theory fits this category as it explains more so the psychological side on why violent crime is committed from an individual. My proposal for the solution to decrease the violent crime rates is to have easy access facilities that individuals can reach out too. The strain on oneself can lead to them trying to escape the strain/stress and engaging in a violent crime. The strain theory allows for a better understanding on why individuals engage in acts of violent criminal
Strain Theories of Crime There are numerous sociological theories of crime causation. Some of these theories initiate with social class or family differences, educational hardships and occupational goals, with neighborhood and peers, and/or with the effects of official labeling. From a sociologist perspective crime is the product of social interactions and must be understood and examined in a social context. There are three major sociological theories of crime and delinquency: strain, social learning, and control theories, (Voigt, 2002).
According to Gavin, in the text Criminological and Forensic Psychology, many psychologists have attempted to explain crime by coming up with multiple social theories. Gavin states that psychologist suggest that those who commit crimes have “individual differences” that “make it more likely than some people to commit crimes…” and that these social theories say that these crimes are a result of “the breakdown in social structures”. One of the first social theories that was introduced came about in 1938 by Merton, his theory is known as Strain Theory. Gavin goes on to define Strain Theory as the “social structures exert pressures which may lead an individual to commit crime”. His theory was a result of determining the “relationship between society and the values and behavior of members of that society was pivotal in the sociological examination of crime” (Gavin, 54). What strain theory attempts to explain is that crime is a result of instability or problems; for example, pressures of society and societal goals can influence an individual to commit a crime (Gavin, 54).
Over the years there has been the development of various concepts that are intended to clarify and comprehend criminal behavior in society. While some of these concepts are not as of now being used, most them have transformed and are utilized as a part of various criminal investigations in contemporary society (Haynie, and Osgood, 2005). The present criminologists mixed viewpoints that have been attracted from various controls to push their knowledge on criminal behavior. As a rule, the discourse on criminal behavior focuses on social and environmental variables with the social learning theory and the social structure theory being the greatest speculations that can clarify the commonness of crime in society. While these two components are the
According to Niño et.al’s (2017) “Social Isolation and Youth Violence,” the article depicts the subject of general strain theory and how it could lead to criminality. Two
Emile Durkheim developed the first mod ern strain theory of crime and deviance, but Merton’s classical strain of theory came to dominant criminology during the middle part of the 20th century (“Strain theories - criminology - Oxford bibliographies - obo,” 2017). Classic strain theory focuses on the type of strain involving inability to achieve success or focused on a broader goal of the middle-class status (“Strain theories - criminology - Oxford bibliographies - obo,” 2017). Robert Agnew developer of general strain theory in 1992, becoming the most leading version of strain theory and major theories of crime (“Strain theories - criminology - Oxford bibliographies - obo,” 2017). General strain theory focuses on a wide range of strains including the inability to achieve a variety of goals, loss of balanced passions ad negative treatment by others (“Strain theories - criminology - Oxford bibliographies - obo,” 2017). General strain theory deviates the explanation of race, gender, ethnic, age, communities and society differences in crime rates (“Strain theories - criminology - Oxford bibliographies - obo,” 2017). People that gravitate to general strain theory are more likely to relieve less support that increases the crime of rate.

Bamboo Flooring Installation Tips
Bamboo floors are one of the most popular choices among homeowners who want to improve their home’s overall look, but they have some maintenance requirements before they can be used fully. Here are some tips to help you when installing bamboo flooring:
1. You will need to place a protective layer over the floor so that it does not stain or scratch easily during installation. This should be done with a thin layer of paint, wax, or sealant directly applied to the bamboo floor during installation.
2. Make sure that your vacuum cleaner does not leave any residue behind after cleaning the floor. Bamboo is a very soft material and can easily be damaged by using a vacuum cleaner that only has a soft brush tip.
3. Make sure that you have a long enough level for your bamboo flooring to cover it completely without leaving any gap or crevice.
4. The adhesive backing will help your bamboo floor to stay strong and not move when you walk over it, but if you find that it’s still sliding or falling apart, install some shims on the bottom of each piece of bamboo as needed to make sure it stays positioned.

The Emily City Council agreed to clarify a statement in letters sent to all non-homestead property owners with a building, according to unapproved draft meeting minutes from the May 14 meeting.
The letter was to determine whether properties were being rented. Owners were requested to return a completed rental dwelling license application or a non-rental property declaration form (included in the mailing). The letter said property owners would be charged an administration fine for not returning the forms.
The letter was meant to say that owners renting their homes who did not complete rental dwelling license applications were subject to the fine. Non-rental property declaration forms are voluntary if the property is not rented.
The city sent 519 letters; 304 forms of one type or the other were returned. Between 20 and 25 property owners called to complain. The council agreed more research is needed for state licensing requirements for vacation rentals. The license applications are meant to provide safety for renters and neighbors.
Draft minutes said one property owner alleged that the ordinance as written requires licenses for property owners allowing friends to stay at his or her dwelling. The city attorney disagreed with that interpretation. He said a rental property is defined as being for a charge, whereas friends using a dwelling for no charge are not renters and therefore are not required to be licensed.
A deadline of May 31 was set.
The council learned that there are hurdles preventing municipal support (financially) of treatment of aquatic invasive species in Emily lakes and rivers. The city attorney said state law limits the city to contributing funds to bodies of water fully within city limits, unless the city entered a joint powers agreement with the other entities where the body of water lies.
Emily Lake and Roosevelt Lake do not lie fully within the jurisdiction, though Ruth Lake is in the city boundaries, but it is part of the Ruth Lake Improvement District.
The city budgeted $15,000 for use for treatment of invasive species in Emily lakes and rivers, but it is possible those funds may not be legally used. The attorney was also concerned the city may not be allowed to contribute donations to lake improvement districts.
Dan Brennan, president of the Ruth Lake Improvement District, said the city's contributions were integral to the fight against invasive aquatic species.
In other business, the council:
• Approved rental of a street sweeper from RDO Equipment for two weeks for up to $3,000.
• Learned the Minnesota Department of Transportation approved a right of way permit for construction of a sidewalk from a public parking lot to the State Highway 6/County Road 1 crosswalks. MnDOT also denied a permit for installation of flag poles, city information sign and electrical installation for flag pole lights in the MnDOT right of way.
• Denied a resolution recommended by the League of Minnesota Cities requesting comprehensive road and transit funding to support legislation for additional city street funding.
• Approved installation of at least one 16-foot garage door on the maintenance shop. The council also approved a Crow Wing Power right of way easement to provide power to the maintenance shop.
• Approved purchase of a clerk's office server, battery backup and switch for faster internet service for a total of $1,250. This is less than the $2,800 budgeted for the server.
• Approved a $980 upgrade to the city surveillance system recorder to 4k with additional storage.
• Approved a motion that all agenda items must be at the clerk's office by noon on the Thursday before the regular council meeting, with the exception of emergencies.
• Approved a rule that the council packet must be completed by 10 a.m. on the Monday before the regular council meeting, allowing for emergency additions at the clerk's discretion.
• Agreed to apply for a conditional use deed from the state of Minnesota for a city beach on Little Emily Lake.
• Agreed to purchase two new four tier bleachers and to replace boards on the current bleachers for up to $3,000.
• Approved a union contract between the city of Emily and the International Union of Operating Engineers Local No. 49 AFL-CIO retroactively to Jan. 1.
• Agreed to hire Randy Deshayes as a part-time, seasonal maintenance worker for $15 an hour.
• Approved a Sourcewell internship agreement with college student Sienna Rae Johnson to work as an independent contractor in the clerk's office up to 40 hours a week for up to 16 weeks for $12 an hour paid by Sourcewell and an additional $3 per hour paid by the city.
• Reviewed recycling costs. The city has had to charge significant contamination fees for recycled materials due to the presence of plastic bags mixed in with recyclables. The council agreed to post a notice explaining that continued contamination could cause the program to close.
• Approved a charitable gambling license for St. Emily's Church for a raffle from May 12-Sept. 1.
• Approved two temporary on-sale intoxicating liquor licenses for the Emily Fire Relief Association for the June 22-23 softball tournament and the July 20 Emily Day event.
• Agreed to have planning and zoning review the proposed Wetland Conservation Act administration fees and make a recommendation to the council. The council also adopted a resolution regarding city administration of the Minnesota Wetland Conservation Act.
• Learned progress has been made in mediating complaints regarding the State Highway 6 reconstruction project. A settlement has been reached concerning damage to Emily Meats' refrigeration and MnDOT plans to address a flooding issue east of the Log Cabin Bar with installation of a storm drain to the storm sewer system.

Lighting up Christmas
I was going to entitle this article ‘darkness and debt’ but thought that was not a cheery heading for a blog during the festive season, however, I did want to describe some of the factors that contribute to mental health problems at Christmas. I was prompted to write this after reading an article in a local newspaper about predictions being made by a hospital trust of a rise in numbers of admissions of men to local psychiatric hospital beds in December.
There’s a number of risk factors that can coincide during the Christmas and New year holiday period:
- First of all the darkness factor. In Northern Europe it gets dark early in the afternoon, and many people do suffer from a form of depression called seasonal affective disorder caused by deprivation of daylight. Even for those who don’t suffer from SAD, many people experience a downturn in mood with dark wet miserable evenings and early mornings.
- Pressures on shopping at this time can lead people to get into debt, and this becomes a major stress factor. Advertising on televisions and in shops is a relentless onslaught that seems to start as early as the beginning of November.
- Christmas is portrayed as a happy family time, so for people who have suffered bereavement, or haven’t got family around them, it make them more conscious of their situation. Some people can’t wait for Christmas to be all over. It can feel very overwhelming – the idea that we’ve all got to have a good time. This is not just an issue of people feeling isolated or alone at Christmas, family pressures can be heightened when they spend a lot of time with each other.
- Christmas has become a time when people overindulge in food and drink. Again supermarket television adverts of groaning dinner tables add to our impression of what some people think Christmas should look like. Lack of exercise, over eating, and drinking heavily are all factors that can contribute to poor mental health.
Not getting carried away
In thinking about how to cope with these pressures, perhaps the message should be, let’s not get carried away with Christmas and New Year, and be aware for some people around you it might be a very difficult time of year.
Anyway, back to the title of the article, this was inspired by Mind the mental health charity who are running a fundraising campaign called ‘Help light up Christmas’. You can read more about it here.

LAHORE: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf leader and former federal minister Fawad Chaudhry on Wednesday said that PTI’s long march will resume from tomorrow (Thursday).
According to details, former federal minister Fawad Chaudhry said in his tweet that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s Haqiqi Azadi March will start again tomorrow. The PTI leader further said there will be a meeting of the officials of the Gujranwala and Lahore divisions today, after which a senior leadership meeting of the party will be held. He said Imran Khan will be in Rawalpindi to lead the march in the third week of November.
It is pertinent to mention here that the PTI’s Haqeeqi Azadi march, which demanded early and fair elections, was brought to an abrupt halt after Imran was shot in the leg during a procession. The attack was being called an assassination attempt. The former prime minister and several other PTI leaders were injured after a man opened fire near the PTI reception camp at Allahwala Chowk during party’s long march.

By Traci Watson, USA TODAY
LONDON -- British prime minister David Cameron parted ways with U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and others around the world who are campaigning for a moment of silence at the Olympics opening ceremonies to commemorate the killing of 11 Israeli athletes and coaches at the Munich Games in 1972. The men died after being taken hostage by Palestinian terrorists.
At a news media briefly Friday in the Olympic Park, Cameron said he would attend a commemoration for the Israelis and pointed out that London mayor Boris Johnson and International Olympic Committee chief Jacques Rogge have also done so. But Cameron rejected the idea of a moment of silence.
"I think what matters is that we properly commemorate this," he said. "Those things are the right way."
Clinton earlier this week came out in support of a moment of silence, and sent a letter to Olympic officials urging them to take the time during Friday's opening ceremony.
Rogge has said there will be no moment during the ceremonies. He and Johnson participated in a minute of silence earlier this week at the Athletes Village.

Damascus (AsiaNews) - Summary executions, people sentenced for blasphemy and the expulsion of Christians and Shias from their homes are but some of the actions taken by the courts of the "Caliphate of Iraq and the Levant", the name the al-Nusra Brigade and other Islamist rebels use in relations to the Syrian territory under their rule.
In different parts of Aleppo, in the towns of al-Bab and Idlib and other villages under the control of Islamist groups linked to al-Qaeda, sharia has been enforced for the past year. Islamic justice is not an improvised game but the work of well-organised courts, with sentences passed daily and indiscriminately against Sunnis, Christians, Alawis and other Shias who do not conform to Wahhabi Islam.
In Aleppo's neighbourhood of al-Shaar, the al Nusra Brigade executed a 14-year-old boy for insulting the prophet. Last Wednesday, the Sadeq al-Amin Brigade stormed the predominantly Shia village of Hatla in Deir Ezzor province.
A video posted by Islamists on Youtube, almost all foreigners with a North African accent, shows the fighters after a mission. In it, the men are seen showing off the bodies of those they killed, mocking them, calling them "dogs" loyal to Assad, saying that they would kill anyone opposed to Islam.
On Thursday, the body of a man was found with shots in the head and neck by a mosque in al-Bab (Aleppo Governatorate). Residents reported that the man had been taken into custody several months earlier by the city's Sharia Council on charges of theft.
Most information about these massacres and about the violence perpetrated by the regime comes from the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR), an organisation set up by Syrian rebels in exile.
For nearly two years, SOHR has reported only acts of violence by the regime against the rebels. Mainstream international media like the BBC, al-Jazeera and al-Arabya, have relied on it as their sole source of news.
In recent months, several experts and Syrians interviewed by AsiaNews accused Western and Gulf State media of selective reporting. More recently, coverage has become more impartial, but SOHR continues to defend Islamic extremists to avoid losing support among rebel forces. In the case of Hatla, the SOHT reported said that residents had sided with the regime and housed Syrian soldiers.
In an interview with AsiaNews on 28 May, Gregory III Laham, patriarch of Antioch, said that "Syria's future cannot be built on destruction. There are no winners with war."
In the past few months, indiscriminate funding of the rebellion and the continuous flow of foreign fighters has paradoxically bolstered, not weakened the regime, with Hizbollah using them as a pretext to wage war against its Sunni enemy.
Syrians, including anti-regime Muslims, have begun to criticise the presence of foreign fighters in their country and to view them as terrorists.
This is the case in Al-Qusair, one of the first cities to join the rebellion against Assad, and for months one of its stronghold, where residents bemoan the destruction of churches and mosques not aligned with radical Islam. The same is true in Aleppo where residents have welcomed the regular army in a number of neighbourhoods.
In November 2012, the Turkish newspaper Hurryiet stressed the deep cleavages within Syrian rebel forces, warning the West about the risks of armed support, recently endorsed by US President Barak Obama and the governments of France and Great Britain.
At present, some 30 recognisable militias with some 100,000 fighters operate in Syria. Of these, only three belong to the Free Syrian Army, the main interlocutor of the international community. The other 27 are linked to Al-Qaeda or belong to other Islamist or political movements.
Sources told AsiaNews "that the purpose of these groups is not only the liberation of Syria from Assad, but also the spread by force of radical Islam throughout the Middle East and the conquest of Jerusalem."
Many fighters do not even speak Arabic. Others left villages in Pakistan, Afghanistan, Somalia, Indonesia without knowing the exact location of Syria.
Some villagers near Aleppo have reported that several fighters, especially the younger ones, were recruited with the false promise of going to liberate Jerusalem. (SC)

Marea Bishop vowed not to let her health problems define her. But that didn’t mean the single mother from Bellevue was immune from the harsh effects of being unable to afford health coverage.
Marea told her story in an Omaha World-Herald piece, laying out how chronic health problems chipped away at her ability to work and eventually forced her to close her photography business.
Her savings has dwindled as she struggles to pay for medications and treatments.
“Not having health insurance turns your life into a vicious cycle. If you can’t afford medications and treatment, you can’t get healthy. Most uninsured people, if they could afford care, could get better, get back to work and live the healthy life that every Nebraskan wants.”
Nebraskans like Marea are why we’ve fought for years to expand Medicaid for hard-working people like Marea who aren’t paid enough to afford private coverage, but who could improve their lives substantially if they could afford the health care that everyone needs.
We’re proud Marea is an advocate with the Insure The Good Life campaign to gather enough petition signatures by July 5 to allow Nebraska voters the choice of expanding Medicaid at this November’s election.
We want your help. Sign up to join Insure The Good Life and you can sign a petition, volunteer, or otherwise support the fight for Nebraskans to be able to vote for a healthier future this fall.
Together, we can help 90,000 hard-working Nebraskans like Marea – our neighbors, family and friends – have their best chance at a healthy life.

Amidst the pandemic crisis of Covid-19, All India Football Federation, the apex football governing body in India came with a decentralising decision as the responsibility of hosting the youth leagues is now handed over to the state associations.
The state associations has been instructed to set up a league committee which will be responsible for conducting various youth leagues. The inspections of day to day operations of the league along with the rules & regulations will be the responsibility of the league committee.
As per the new guidelines thw unaccredited clubs/academies can now participate in the preliminary rounds of the league. The apex football governing body earlier organised various preliminary rounds of the leagues at the Junior , Sub-Junior and youth levels. But the state associations will now be handed over the right to do so with the help of the league committee. This will provide ample opportunity to the state associations to be a part of the grasaroot development programs of the AIFF.
As per the new instructions, three foreign/PIO/OCI players is allowed per team in the youth leagues . An inclusion of six homegrown players in the club’s squad is manadatory for each clubs. It may be a herculean task for the new clubs to get AIFF accreditation in these tough times but this new decision will bring more involvement of the state association in AIFF grassroot development plan.

I usually look for green glass but this one is more blue than green - just as gorgeous though, especially as it only cost me £1!
I've got a growing collection of bottles and I rarely spend more than 50p or £1.
Some are housed in cabinets.
And I have ten green bottles lined up on a shelf in the loo. Several of these were dug up in our garden - there were no rubbish collections many years ago so refuse was just buried in a hole! Amazingly the bottles were completely intact when we found them and most have local connections that make them more interesting.
They all make great subjects for a very quick watercolour. No initial pencil sketch with this, just dilute watercolour to draw the basic shapes of the outline and the reflections. As you can see, this is still wet - I'll add a few more washes once it's dry and next time I'll try to make it fit the page!
Hope you have a Happy Sunday! Linda x

This is the second iteration of an earlier portrait of Stephen Colbert that was installed temporarily at the NPG in 2008 as the result of an elaborate joke(featured above) between the grandiosely self-important character played by Colbert and the director of the NPG. The earlier version featured three images of Colbert in the framed canvas print; the current one features nine that reflect behind him ad infinitum. It hangs in the same place in the museum as its predecessor: on the wall between the men’s and women’s restrooms on the second floor. Whether that is an appropriate location for the portrait is not for your correspondent to judge, but it is certainly a memorable one.
As the portrait is on loan from “The Colbert Report” and not part of the museum’s permanent collection, it is well worth a visit while on display in Washington DC in such a storied space.
On view at the National Portrait Gallery until April 19, free admission.

Mike Rome teased during the video that we could be seeing a preview for a Wrestlemania bout between the two superstars.
What was interesting about this was that, does this hint that the RAW Women’s title will not be defended at the Royal Rumble?
If so it seems very unfair that two women on the female roster (RAW and Smackdown Live Women’s Champions) will miss out on making history.
It seems highly unlikely that Asuka will lose her undefeated streak on a regular RAW show, so is it pretty obvious that she will pin the Champion tonight, or am I just getting ahead on myself?
RAW should be good tonight with them looking to kick-start 2018 with a bang!
Question – Do you think Asuka will win the first ever Women’s Royal Rumble, and if not who will?

11 Apr Top 5 Ruling Families Ever
Throughout the centuries, people and nations have changed dramatically around the world. For a family to maintain a high level of control over groups of people, economies, and boundaries is a tremendous feat and these are the absolute best of the best:
When it comes to dominating important places at important times, nobody beats the Habsburgs. They had influence over most of Eastern, Central and Southern Europe, intertwined with the Holy Roman Empire most of the time. Originating in Austria, the family rose to power through political moves, economic craftiness, and creating the much-celebrated policy of “Taco Tuesday”.
One of most enduring and largest empires in history, the Ottoman Empire was begun by Osman I from the rubble of the Byzantine Empire. Due to Osman’s famous love of hats, the rulers throughout the centuries made fancy headwear a proud symbol of the empire, for which the Ottomans have long been recognized as the most fashion-forward emporers. See: Suleiman
Starting with Emperor Jimmu in 650 BC, the foremost house of Japan has seen 125 monarchs over the years. The house has presided over countless intra-national wars, pan-continental wars, and a World War while incubating such important innovations as sushi, karate, and tentacle porn.
The Wangchuck family has ruled over Bhutan since 1907 but its influence goes back much further, rooted in legendary monks and historical figures. They’ve protected the sovereignty of Bhutan strongly for hundreds of years, thanks to the world’s deepest moat surrounding their Himalayan castle, rumored to be the home of over 10,000 alligators.
The current ruling family of Great Britain, the Windsors are actually rooted in Germany, known as “Saxe-Coburg and Gotha” until 1917. The family, up to and including Prince William, the future king of England, are actually all Germans pretending to be British through fake accents and terrible teeth in order to maintain their dynastic control. Once the British discover the rouse, the family will certainly lose its power in Britain.

Apple won’t get away a financial decline unharmed. A stagnation in customer spending and also ongoing supply-chain difficulties will weigh heavily on the business’s June earnings record. But that doesn’t indicate financiers need to give up on the aapl stock chart, according to Citi.
” In spite of macro troubles, we continue to see numerous favorable drivers for Apple’s products/services,” composed Citi analyst Jim Suva in a research note.
Suva outlined five factors financiers need to look past the stock’s current delayed performance.
For one, he believes an apple iphone 14 design could still be on track for a September launch, which could be a short-term driver for the stock. Various other product launches, such as the long-awaited artificial reality headsets and the Apple Automobile, might invigorate financiers. Those products could be all set for market as early as 2025, Suva included.
In the future, Apple (ticker: AAPL) will gain from a consumer change away from lower-priced competitors toward mid-end and costs items, such as the ones Apple offers, Suva wrote. The business also can capitalize on broadening its services sector, which has the possibility for stickier, a lot more regular profits, he included.
Apple’s present share redeemed program– which totals $90 billion, or around 4% of the firm‘s market capitalization– will proceed backing up to the stock’s worth, he included. The $90 billion buyback program comes on the heels of $81 billion in financial 2021. In the past, Suva has argued that a sped up repurchase program ought to make the firm a more attractive investment as well as help raise its stock cost.
That stated, Apple will still need to navigate a host of obstacles in the close to term. Suva anticipates that supply-chain problems might drive a revenue influence of in between $4 billion to $8 billion. Worsening headwinds from the firm’s Russia exit and varying foreign exchange rates are likewise weighing on development, he included.
” Macroeconomic problems or shifting consumer demand might cause greater-than-expected slowdown or contraction in the handset and smartphone markets,” Suva composed. “This would adversely affect Apple’s potential customers for growth.”
The expert trimmed his price target on the stock to $175 from $200, but kept a Buy score. A lot of analysts stay favorable on the shares, with 74% ranking them a Buy as well as 23% score them a Hold, according to FactSet. Just one expert, or 2.3%, ranked them Underweight.
Apple was up 0.3% to $146.26 in premarket trading on Wednesday.


Montpelier, VT – On August 6, 2020, Commissioner Michael Pieciak announced the Vermont Department of Financial Regulation (DFR) entered into a settlement agreement with State Farm Insurance Company, of Illinois, for improperly calculating interest payments resulting in underpayments to over 500 life insurance policy beneficiaries. Under the terms of the settlement, State Farm will pay $204,000 as an administrative penalty and implement a corrective action plan to ensure compliance with Vermont law. The company also paid $30,347 in restitution to the affected beneficiaries.
“Our department’s top priority is protecting Vermont consumers and making certain they are fairly treated and get the full benefit of Vermont law and their insurance policies – I am proud our department achieved these goals under this settlement,” said Commissioner Pieciak. “I also appreciate that State Farm has worked cooperatively with our department, provided restitution, and committed to implementing a corrective action plan to prevent this from happening again.”
A routine review of State Farm’s form life policy determined that State Farm’s policy form did not contain reference to Vermont’s death benefit interest rate. Further, State Farm was unable to certify the appropriate interest had, in fact, been paid during the prior six years. It was later determined 569 claims were underpaid based on an inappropriate interest rate.
Under the settlement agreement, State Farm will strengthen its internal processes to ensure future compliance with Vermont law and the company will be subject to a DFR audit to verify these processes have been properly implemented.
DFR entered into similar insurance settlements in 2019 with CMFG Life Insurance Company and John Hancock relating to the underpayment of interest on death benefits, which combined totaled $1,031,000 in administrative penalties and $170,793 in restitution.
Commissioner Pieciak would like to recognize and thank the leadership of Deputy Commissioner Kevin Gaffney, as well as Christina Rouleau, Phil Keller, Isabelle Keiser, Marcia Violette, and Diane Sherman for their work on this matter.
Commissioner Pieciak also encourages Vermonters to contact DFR if they have a question, concern or complaint about their finances or at 833-DFR-HOTLINE or online at https://dfr.vermont.gov/consumers/file-complaint/insurance.

E3 is just a matter of days away, and with many announcements to be made, a new console being exhibited, and perhaps a fair few re-masters from years gone by. I thought it would be fitting to show some love to the prehistoric consoles from yesteryear, a blast from the past as such. Without these ancient, almost timeless retro entertainment systems, one could argue the gaming industry would not be where it is today. So I ask you, my fellow gaming nerds, to show some love to today’s two main acts.
The Sega Megadrive (1988)
And lastly the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES, 1990)
These two beauties brought me many moments of joy, from scaling the dizzying heights of “among the clouds” in the awesome Disney classic, the World of Illusion (SEGA remake, make this happen!). To the crazy shenanigans of Mario Kart, “Rainbow Road” still vexes me to this day, grrr. I’m sure many of you, also have an abundance of cherished memories on these two systems. I’m going to list a few games below, that exhilarated me and perhaps did for you also.
World of Illusion
World of illusion stars Mickey Mouse, and Donald Duck in a 2player co-operative, charming world of 2d platforming greatness. Released way back in 1992, the bar was certainly raised when Sega produced this title. Artwork, level designs and sounds inspired by the classic Disney films from years gone by, this game was a must have of its time.
Super Mario Kart
Mario Kart features Mario and friends/enemies from the Mario universe, on a crash course of mayhem. The very first title of the now much-loved series, this game had numerous modes like time trial, cup competitions, battle mode, and finally match race, across a very generous 20 tracks. Mario Kart was a huge success, a pioneer of multi-racing games and rightly up there in Nintendo’s hall of gaming fame.
Sonic 3 and Knuckles
Some may be thinking why not Sonic 1 or Sonic 2, for me, this is the peak title in the catalogue of sonic games. Better special stages, a soundtrack that was a cut above, improved level designs, the inclusion of power-ups, and co-op play. The complete sonic experience. Carnival Night zone and Icecap zone were first class inclusions. Take a bow Sega. Released in 1994, it continues the story of Sonic chasing after the chaos emeralds, and Dr Eggman doing his utmost to stand in Sonics way. (You all knew at least one Sonic game was would be in here).
Arguably the greatest turn-based RPG on the SNES, and of its time back in 1995. The game was a commercial success, its soundtrack and special effects were unprecedented, and it was one of the first of its kind to have multiple endings, an abundance of side quests that influenced character development, and graphics that were simply majestic for a 16bit console. If you’re a fan of the JRPG genre, this game is an absolute must.
Streets of Rage 2
On a mission to rescue Adam from the Syndicate, taking down Mr X by any means necessary, this game is a 2d side scrolling beat up. Featuring an array of moves and weapons to use, as you advance through each level. The Jet and Zamza boss fight was damn challenging, I could never get to grips with those pesky jetpacks hah. The audio was second to none, heavily influenced by the techno/club scene, the soundtrack was impressively composed for such a system with limitations. If you’ve not experienced, or heard of the streets of rage series, I urge you to do so. I believe it’s available on the Microsoft/PlayStation store services.
Zelda: A Link To The Past
The Zelda game that inspired the master sword, hook shot, and the spin attack, which is now a staple of today’s game, Link To The Past was a huge critical success. Excruciating boss fights, expertly designed dungeons, a plethora of items, and a gorgeous world in Hyrule that’s just begging to be explored, this was the game that started it all, helped shape the Zelda that we have today. If you’re intrigued by the past of Zelda and wish to try former titles, a good start would be with this gem.
So many classics, this article could have been endless, I wouldn’t wanna bore you all after all. However, here is an honorable mention list.
- Earthworm Jim (SEGA)
- Street Fighter Turbo II (SNES)
- Donkey Kong Country (SNES)
- Final Fantasy II (SNES)
- Alex Kidd (SEGA)
- Super Mario World II (SNES)
- Busby (SEGA)
- Mortal Kombat (SEGA/SNES)
- Golden Axe (SEGA)
Who wins? Which is the better console?
Disagree with my list? Let me know below in the comment box, perhaps you’d like to see a game from that era remade, or the fanboy in you, demands to make a case for which console is the better? Come on then warriors of the keyboard, bring your swords to the table.

Although the UK was the birthplace of goth fashion, the gothic subculture has spread all over the world. Got fashion has evolved since its inception in the late 1970s and has even adopted some modern trends, but the fundamentals of goth fashion remain unshaken.
Even though the hippie movement was also at its prime during the 1970s and the hippie fashion mostly included bright colors, it was goth fashion, with its black staples and kohl-rimmed eyes that caught everyone’s attention.
Keep reading this blog to learn more about the history and evolution of goth fashion.
What Is Goth Fashion?
Goth fashion is inspired by the goth subculture and celebrates the darker and more morose aspects of one’s life. It amalgamates Victorian romanticism and rebellious and dark punk aesthetics.
The Victorian romanticism element of goth fashion includes laced corsets, pale skin, and elegant long dresses. In contrast, the punk introduces spiked accessories, leather jackets, and dark makeup, usually involving black eye makeup and black lips.
How Did Goth Fashion Become So Widespread?
Although goth fashion was a head-turner since the beginning, it didn’t take the fashion world by storm until the early 80s.
When fashion designer Yohji Yamamoto incorporated elements of traditional goth into his fashion line and introduced the pieces on the runway, all the big fashion names, including Alexander McQueen, Givenchy, Valentino, and many others, took their version of goth fashion to the runway.
Modern Goth vs. Ancient Goth Fashion
In this day and age, fashion is all about looking good while being comfortable, be it goth fashion or activewear. However, the ancient goth style was quite different, sophisticated, and uncomfortable compared to the modern goth style.
The ancient goth fashion included body-hugging upper-body garments that cinched the waist and gave the wearer an hourglass figure like tight sleeves and corsets. The lower part of the garment used to be flowy, exaggerated, and long.
And goth men wore shirts with lace and ruffles and trousers paired with dark shoes and high heels.
In modern goth fashion, you’d find various elements of the latest fashion trends. Although it includes items like skirts, baggy t-shirts, leather jackets, and baggy pants, the modern goth fashion still has the basics of ancient goth fashion.
Major Developments In The History Of Goth Fashion
The Traditional Goth
Traditional goths were one of the pioneers when the gothic subculture started growing in the late 70s. The traditional gothic look was introduced by major gothic music bands such as the Banshees, The Sisters of Mercy, Siouxsie Sioux, and others who introduced goth lovers to dark clothing and makeup.
The Romantic Goths
The romantic got trend was all about long flowy dresses and matching jewelry. This trend started in the 90s, and Morticia Adams from the Addams Family was the ultimate inspiration for thousands of romantic goths.
Other than their get-up, the romantic goth vibe included roaming about in dark graveyards, using dead flowers as decoration, and taking a keen interest in gothic architecture and literature. Romantic goths can be said to have similarities with Victorian goths.
The Cyber Goths
Music is what differentiated the cyber goths from traditional goths. The cyber goths started emerging in Germany in the late ’90s when goths shifted from rock music and started listening to electronic music.
Exaggerated protective goggles, black clothing, bulky, over-the-top boots, and other industrial-inspired clothes and accessories formed the aesthetic of cyber goths.
The Nu Goths
Corsets and backcombing were a major part of the gothic look. However, the corset strings and backcombing hair took hours, and the nascent goths looked for stylish and quick gothic styles to avoid this hassle. As a result, the nu goth trend was born toward the later part of the first decade of the 21st century.
The nu goth trend is more subtle compared to previous goth trends and takes a modern and minimalistic approach towards the otherwise overbearing goth trends.
The Health Goths
The emergence of the health goth is one of the most interesting developments in goth fashion.
This gothic fashion trend involves a combination of futuristic, sportswear, and sci-fi black clothing, and heavy accessories.

Following the release of Drake’s Nothing Was the Same, Chitown’s own Lupe Fiasco jumps on the ‘Pound Cake/Paris Morton Music 2’ beat for a new freestyle.
Renamed ‘Pound of Flesh (Paris Tokyo 2)’ has Lupe dropping straight battle rap bars for 2-and-a-half minutes.
He definitely has been on some other stuff lately and it reflects in his music. Taking to the Drake beat, Lupe Fiasco flexes his lyrical muscles and shows his strength on the mic.
Although his flow is aggressive, he still calls out some other Chicago emcees that he has expressed concern for in the past.
Not really what this has to do with the rap ballad Paris, Tokyo, but take a listen and decide for yourself.


text: @gingerw– I totally agree with you and your analogy is perfect because that's exactly what happens. My goal in starting this discussion, as @hopeful33250 so eloquently stated we want to help make them less powerful so we don't get ill from them. Taking power back into our lives is the most important process to feeling well. Anger is always anger, but can be triggered by different things and eventually become less important in the journey. I think that situations change the importance of each feeling but doesn't change the actual feeling. what do you think?

Syria's Prime Minister Muhammad Naji Otri has called upon Arab investors to invest in Syria and help create an Arab economic bloc capable of competing with other economic blocs and confronting the challenges posed by globalisation.
He said Syria is gradually transitioning to a social market economy and the reform process has gone well so far, evident in positive economic indicators such as the rising GDP, the increasing number and size of investment projects and growing exports. Otri added that Syria has continually strived to achieve an Arab free trade area, as a precursor to an Arab common market, as a means to strengthen Arab economies and boost investment and exchange in the region. Otri called upon Arab businessmen to expand their investment base in Syria and form strategic partnerships. Potential areas of investment include energy, minerals, banking, agriculture, industry and transport.

Bitcoin suffered it’s latest price plunge this week – at one point pulling back as much as 50% from its all-time high. Below is a great visual of Bitcoin crashes brought to you by Visual Capitalist.
As you can see, crashes like this are certainly nothing new for Bitcoin. In it’s relatively short history it’s experienced many major pullbacks – some much worse than this recent episode.
There are many factors contributing to this, including Elon Musk’s recent announcement that Tesla will stop accepting Bitcoin for purchases for now.
If this were a micro-cap stock or some cutting edge bio-tech company with a possible cure for common diseases, you would probably expect crazy volatility and dramatic pullbacks. And don’t get me wrong, I’m not surprised at all that Bitcoin is capable of losing 50%-60% in a couple days. It also doesn’t bother me in the slightest bit, because I accept Bitcoin as an extremely volatile, new investment type.
I think what makes this somewhat unique is that many people look at Bitcoin as a “store of value,” almost like a cash alternative or stable currency. Maybe it will be someday – it’s possible many cryptocurrencies will fall into this category eventually. But, clearly Bitcoin and other digital “currencies” are anything but stable at this point.
I think investors looking to get into the cryptocurrency space just need to go into it with their eyes wide open and realistic expectations. The risk of dramatic losses is real. And putting funds that were allocated as cash savings into crypto may not be a prudent move.
