Before you go ahead and read the rest of this article (and watch the video clip), we need to make sure you've gone through Season 3 of Homeland so you don't pull a Jennifer Lawrence on us. Now that's clear, here's another reason why we love JLaw. She's totally just like us except she's like an award-winning actress. She totally fangirls on the red carpet (as evidenced by her mini panic attack upon seeing Homeland's Damian Lewis who was being interviewed beside her). What starts as an awesome fan moment ends in a major spoiler by the host of Access Hollywood. JLaw can't hide her emotions as she discovers what happens to the character of the actor she just met.
What would you do if you were in her sitch?

25L Travelling Cycling Hiking Backpack for Outdoor Activities Male and Female AU
Would your travel insurance policy cover you if you fell off an elephant while on holiday in Phuket? Well, maybe – but there could be a reduction in the available benefits. However, if you were on a holiday which included trekking by camel or elephant you would not be covered because the activity would be classified as ‘non-incidental.’ Confused yet? The subject of travel insurance for ‘hazardous activities’ can be very complicated!
Many travel insurance policies automatically cover for ‘incidental’ activities. The term ‘incidental basis’ means that your participation in an activity is on a casual, fortuitous, occasional, or minor basis. In contrast, sports tours or activity holidays; for example, a week’s white water rafting on the Colorado River is considered non-incidental.
The term ‘hazardous activity’ for insurance purposes generally means any activity where it is recognized that there is an increased risk of injury or it can be reasonably expected to exacerbate an existing medical condition.
You should be covered to participate in an activity such as canoeing, hot air ballooning, camel riding, jet skiing, deep sea fishing, horse riding or snorkeling on a limited basis but not in excess, i.e. a planned adventure holiday where you would be participating in the activity on a daily basis.
For incidental activities which are considered more dangerous, such as abseiling or playing amateur rugby, claims resulting from these activities could mean a reduction in the amount of personal accident benefit and an increase in the ‘excess’ for medical expenses.
Another group might include activities considered dangerous which you would participate in on a regular basis, i.e. ‘non-incidental.’ Claims relating to these activities are also likely to be subject to a reduction in the amount of personal accident cover and an increase in the excess for medical expenses. These activities might include cycling (touring), pony trekking, safaris, and sailing holidays.
Sports, which include racing of any type (except on foot), would usually have to be approved in advance. The same would apply to activities such as: mountaineering (while using ropes), potholing, hang-gliding, caving, micro-lighting, motor racing, and parachuting (other than a solo or tandem jump) in excess of one jump and bungee jumping (in excess of one jump). Motorcycling may be covered provided an additional premium is paid, but is often subject to restrictions such as riding your own motorcycle up to a certain engine size, and not including any type of racing. Your travel insurance policy will not cover for professional sporting activities and you cannot work (paid or unpaid) as a guide or instructor to others.
Most travel insurance policies will contain a clause in their General Exclusions section regarding ‘willful exposure to danger or peril’ (unless in an attempt to save human life). The onus is on you to exercise reasonable care to prevent illness, injury, or loss or damage to your property. In other words – you should always act as if you are not insured and not tempt fate!
When it comes to winter sports, you do not normally have automatic coverage with your travel insurance policy and will need to pay an additional premium. Most winter sports policies do not cover for anything other than normal skiing and boarding activities. Dangerous activities such as ski jumping, heli-skiing, ski acrobatics, freestyle skiing, ski racing or training, ice hockey, and bobsledding would be excluded unless pre-approved. Exclusions would also apply to offpiste skiing in areas designated as unsafe by the resort management.
Travel insurance policies can vary a lot so if you should be offered free insurance or ludicrously cheap insurance it would be wise to check and see what it actually covers! You may find, for instance, that there will be no liability cover under certain circumstances or for certain activities. You may be covered for some potentially hazardous activities – but only if you remain within certain limited guidelines for that activity.
It is up to the underwriter whether they decide to provide cover for any unusual type of risk. You would need to contact the travel insurance company in advance to discuss any potentially hazardous activities. In some cases, you may be able to obtain cover, but only after payment of an additional premium or an amendment to the policy. If in doubt – always ask first. It will be difficult, it not impossible, to find a company which will add cover for a hazardous activity to your policy once you are on holiday. If you should find yourself in this position, it would be wise to avoid the activity – or attempt to purchase insurance where you are.
Are you less confused now? Imagine you are on holiday in Egypt. You decide to go on a camel ride. You fall off and break your leg. Would your travel insurance cover you? Depending on your particular policy, the insurance should cover you – because your participation in the activity was on an incidental basis!

Many families travel for Christmas. While traveling for Christmas can be a wonderful experience to see loved ones near or far away – the actual experience of travel can sometimes be very frustrating. Kids especially find travel stressful and challenging. Fortunately, there are ways you can make Christmas travel easier for kids.
Bring along some activities for your kids. You may be very focused on catching a connecting flight or carrying your luggage, but keeping your kids occupied should be just as important. This is not simply for your kids’ sake but also for the other passengers. Remember that kids who are not happy may fuss, whimper or cry. You don’t want your kids to disturb other passengers. This experience alone will make travel more difficult for your kids as they feel even more stress, being around adults who are unhappy with their behavior.
Involve your kids in parts of the travel experience. Get out a map and show them where the family is going. Talk about how many miles you are traveling. Read storybooks about planes or trains before you travel. Read storybooks about the town, city or state before you go. Let your kids help pack their suitcases and even shop for Christmas gifts for family. They will get more excited about the holiday travel and will feel like a part of this experience.
It’s okay to offer a reward for good behavior. Giving your kids an incentive for behaving well on the plane or train is appropriate, as long as your expectations are not unrealistic. Most small kids will get restless during some part of your trip – no matter what you do. Siblings may argue.
You know your kids better than anyone else. Choose a reward such as a fun activity for the next day or a special treat when you land. The kids will look forward to this and it can help remind them to behave well – that they will receive something they look forward to.

Thailand is a popular tourist destination nowadays. It has caught up with other countries in terms of fame already. This means that just as you are thinking of traveling to Thailand, there are also hundreds of other people planning a trip to the place. Once again, this means that it could be a hassle for you to find a comfortable accommodation or flight if you don’t act earlier.
With this, if you are really decided that Thailand would be your next travel destination, make sure you abide by the following tips for a convenient travel to Thailand.
1. Plan your activities ahead. This refers to thinking about your main reason why you want to go there. If you want to ride an elephant, plan ahead. What are the activities you want to do in Thailand? What are the places you want to go to? Planning ahead is convenient because this allows you to avoid the hassle of planning and thinking where to go and what to do when you are already there. It could be time consuming when you have not yet planned what you want to do and the place where you want to go in Thailand. Plus, planning your activities ahead can also help you book a tour if you want. How are you going to plan your activities earlier? Simple; you just need to create or write it down on a piece of paper. Include time and day schedule on the list. Ask the tour company what places are included in their tours for tourists in Thailand. If all the places on your list are mentioned by the travel agency, you can simply book a tour. But if you want to travel with friends and explore Thailand on your own, it helps when you plan your activities and set your schedule as early as possible.
2. Plan your budget. When it comes to travel, you always want to make it a point that you can save money. After all, travel does not have to be expensive. It does not have to slice a hefty part of your budget. You can always avoid budget surprises by planning your budget well. Ask yourself how much you are willing to spend for a trip to Thailand. Are you on a tight budget? Or is money not a problem? Once you have planned your budget, you can now create or plan your activities in Thailand within the budget range. Choose only the activities that fit into your budget. But even if you have done this, it is still best to have extra money with you just in case unplanned circumstances occur. Planning your budget is highly advantageous because it could help you save a lot of bucks traveling to Thailand. It can also help you create a budget-friendly plan and schedule. It also allows you to know what your limits are and be wary of your budget. Taking extra money with you just in case, also helps you in case of emergencies and unexpected expenses.
3. Book your flight early. Some people make the terrible mistake of booking their flights late. It is good if you have a lot of cash to pay for on-the-spot trips especially when traveling to Thailand. But if you are on a tight budget and you really want to save in your travel to Thailand, it is a must to book your flight earlier than possible. There are already a lot of airline promos and flight discounts you can avail nowadays but they are usually offered weeks and even months before the flight. However, this promos and discounts are your best options if you want a budget-friendly travel to Thailand. Be updated with airline promos and packages. If possible, subscribe to the airline’s mailing list so that whenever there is a new flight promo to Thailand, you will receive an email from them. This way, you will never be outdated and you will be first to book your flight. This will not only save you a lot of money, but this will also save you the hassle and disappointment of running out of seats for the promo flight. Indeed, when you travel, money should be no object and you should really prepare for that, but getting a discount for a flight is even better. You just need to really prepare for that by booking your flight earlier.
4. Book your hotel reservations early. Your flight is not the only thing that matters when traveling to Thailand. Remember, after you arrive from the airport, the next destination is your hotel. Now, if you have not yet booked a hotel reservation, you will have the hassle of exploring Thailand and finding a hotel to stay. You can do this exploring thing but this gives you higher chances of finding an expensive hotel. Whereas, if you book your hotel reservation earlier, you can save time and effort looking for a place to stay and you can also save a lot because early hotel reservations are usually discounted like flights. So; before the trip to Thailand, research ahead as to what the best hotels to stay in Thailand are. Find a convenient hotel near the airport.
Then, you can book your hotel reservations online. Just as you can book your flight online; book your accommodations as well. It won’t not only save you time, money and effort, but it will also give you higher chances of choosing or selecting the best hotel accommodation there is. In other words, you won’t be forced to choose a hotel just because you have no other options.
Traveling to Thailand can indeed relieve you from the stress of everyday life. However, the trip can also be stressful and inconvenient. It could be a hassle and could frustrate you too. But, you can totally avoid the stress of travel and you can make sure that you will have a convenient travel to Thailand if you follow the above mentioned tips when traveling to Thailand.
Don’t let stress hinder you to enjoy. And, there is no other way to beat stress when traveling than to be prepared with everything you need before your most awaited travel date.
Going away with friends or your partner can be stressful at the best of times, but you could be heading for trouble if you’re not travel compatible.
Ten million British holiday-makers have lost a good friendship because of not testing their holiday compatibility before setting off on a week or two week break together, according to a new report published by hotel chain Travelodge.
The poll of 3,400 adults reveals that 55 per cent of Brits holidaying with friends have two serious arguments during their stay and an unlucky seven per cent have even returned home within the first few days.
The most common causes of conflict are personality clashes, differing likes and dislikes concerning food and activities, annoying personal habits, money and holiday romances or jealousy.
Anjula Mutanda, Psychologist and Life Coach says:
“It’s a very common issue – friendships breaking up on holiday. The idea of going away with someone you know and trust sounds good in theory but it’s so easy for it to go wrong. Never underestimate just because you’re good friends, going away together for a one or two weeks break will be easy. It’s a big risk holidaying with someone for the first time; this is when you will discover what they are really like.
I would suggest, before committing to a friend’s holiday, first go for a trial run such as a weekend break to access your compatibility. This will be beneficial for both parties and will not just save you money and heartache but most importantly your friendship.”
Once you’ve tested the water with a weekend away it’s a good idea to discuss the following travel considerations before booking a longer break, and then you’ll have done all you can to ensure you’re a good match.
What is your budget? Do you both (or all) have the same amount of cash? What will be your priorities on spending? Would you like to contribute to a kitty or be responsible for all your own spends?
Do you prefer organised tours or would you rather wander round absorbing the atmosphere and discovering places for yourself? Maybe you just want to sunbathe or drink heavily instead.
Do you have any special needs, dietary requirements or personal preferences that will affect your travel companions?
If planning a trip with friends, are you currently in a relationship or having personal problems? What impact could this have on your behaviour and mood during your stay? Are you planning on a lot of bedroom action? If you’re travelling with your partner, is it a particularly stressful time or do you have any disputes that are likely to flare up while away?
How many of you are planning to travel together? Be aware of the jealousies, annoyances and conflicts that are often present in a small group of friends.
It is a good idea to agree on a strategy if things don’t go smoothly. If you’re travelling around the world, would you be happy to split and continue on your own?
When planning a longer trip with friends it’s helpful to agree that you will let each other know if something is bugging you. Conversely, you should agree to show some consideration to your travel mates and try to approach things with humour and flexibility. You can probably put up with some dodgy music but not an ever-growing pile of dirty underwear on the floor.
Paul Anstey, Travelodge Operations Director remarks:
“Around 60 per cent of our customers stay for leisure. A large proportion of these consumers are friends who are travelling or holidaying together. Our findings illustrate you can know someone for many years but it’s only when you share a room together for the first time, that you really get to know that person. This experience can be true test of a friendship.”
When you’re travelling, whether it’s for two weeks or ten months, at some point you will experience tiredness, boredom and unfamiliar situations. You will need to speak to strangers, deal with new currencies and make quick decisions. Sometimes all you’ll want is your own sofa and a nice cup of tea.
At these times you’ll need to feel comfortable enough with your travel companion to have a moan, sit in silence or go for a walk on your own without it causing an argument. If you’ve checked that you’re travel compatible then you’ll hopefully have a happy holiday and you should be able to cope with whatever the world throws at you.

If you are looking for a home away from home that is fabulous, safe and secure, then this is house is for you.
We stayed here for 6 nights with both 4 kids (under 5) and my parents entow.
There is oodles of space here so everyone can do their own thing,
The kids had a back garden to play in and the private pool is wonderful, but very safe. You can lock the doors to keep small ones away from the pool.
With regard to mod cons the house has everything you would need- everything.
The owners of the house and the house manager were all also wonderful. Friendly, helpful & informative
All in all a great house in a great location and friendly neighbours to boot!
We were guests in this beautiful home for five days beginning of April 2014. The house is as nice as on the pictures, it is tastefully decorated , sun-filled, bright, perfectly clean and has a nice layout with beautiful views of the lake and surrounding mountains.
Christine, the owner, was very helpful with our booking and patiently answered all questions.
You can tell by the little details that the owners use the house themselves, and it is equipped with much more than you would actually expect from a holiday home (incl a rubber dinghy and kayaks that you can use during your stay. There was absolutely nothing we missed.
The house is huge and thus perfect for a bigger family or for friends travelling together. We immediately felt at home and wished we had booked it for more than five nights.
We hope to be back soon and for a langer stay next time, for more hiking, paddling on Lake Michelle, lazy days at the pool or long walks on beautiful Noordhoek beach, stargazing at night in the little courtyard or cozy evenings in front of the open fireplace. This is the perfect place to unwind and relax, we truely felt home away from home.
Thank you very much, Christine and Colin, for sharing your beautiful home.

Honeybees the tiny farm workers responsible for dozens of crops, from almonds to cherries have been dying off at alarming rates for more than two decades. Recently honeybee deaths have spiked beekeepers report they lost more than 40 percent of their hives in the past year. Scientists point to a number of possible explanations. Whatever the cause, honeybee services are worth about $10 to $15 billion a year to the agriculture industry. A White House task force has proposed planting wildflowers along pollination routes to help the ailing bees. But many environmentalists are more concerned about pesticide use. We explore the worrisome trend with honeybees and the multi-billion-dollar agriculture industry that depends on them.

What Does the Updated CDC Guidance Mean For Employers? (July 29, 2021)
On July 27, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) issued updated guidance, recommending that even fully-vaccinated individuals should wear masks indoors in geographic areas of “substantial or high transmission.” The change is based on new evidence regarding the Delta coronavirus variant currently circulating in the United States. The CDC also recommends fully-vaccinated people get tested and wear a mask in public indoor settings for 14 days if they have had a known exposure to someone with suspected or confirmed COVID-19 or until they receive a negative test.
Of course, the CDC does not directly regulate employers — it offers recommendations and guidance. Employers should recall that on June 10, 2021, OSHA issued an Emergency Temporary Standard (ETS) and related guidance. With certain exceptions such as healthcare, OSHA stated in their Guidance on Mitigating and Preventing the Spread of COVID-19 in the Workplace:
“Unless otherwise required by federal, state, local, tribal, or territorial laws, rules, and regulations, most employers no longer need to take steps to protect their fully vaccinated workers who are not otherwise at-risk from COVID-19 exposure.” (www.osha.gov/coronavirus/safework.)
OSHA went on to address steps for employers to protect unvaccinated or otherwise at-risk workers in their workplaces. So far, OSHA has not retracted that Guidance from June 2021, but in it, OSHA relied in large part on the previous guidance from the CDC, which has now been “updated” as noted above. In response, OSHA just recently added the following statement to its website:
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has issued new guidance relating to recommended precautions for people who are fully vaccinated, which is applicable to activities outside of healthcare and a few other environments. OSHA is reviewing the recent CDC guidance and will update our materials on this website accordingly. Until those updates are complete, please refer to the CDC guidance for information on measures appropriate to protect fully-vaccinated workers.
With respect to healthcare settings, “OSHA has determined that no changes to the ETS are necessary at this time” but OSHA will continue to monitor. Whether OSHA will follow the CDC’s path is not known, but employers should remain mindful of the general duty clause under OSHA to provide a safe workplace, as well as the previous guidance from the EEOC regarding these issues, including mandatory vaccines in the workplace. (www.eeoc.gov/wysk what-you-should-know- about-covid-19-and-ada-rehabilitation-act-and-other-eeo-laws). In those areas of substantial or high transmission of COVID, employers should keep abreast of any changes in local or state policies and orders regarding masks for even the fully vaccinated, and be prepared for possible adjustments with respect to mask policies. The updated CDC guidance may be accessed on their website as follows: www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/fully-vaccinated-guidance.html.
Our attorneys can assist with questions on these issues. Be sure to watch our Firm website for further updates, at www.wimberlylawson.com.


Importance of Chabahar Port Deal for India
A historic trilateral contract has been signed between India, Iran and Afghanistan for the establishment and benefit of transport and transit corridor among the three countries.
The deal was signed by Prime Minister Modi at the visit where he met Iran’s President Hassan Rouhani and Afghan President Ashraf Ghani.
Construction of the Chabahar port will happen in 2 phases. Construction of the port will be done by India Ports Global Private Limited (IPGPL) and Iran’s Ports and Maritime Organization (PMO). A agreement has been signed between them. India is doing an investment of $5oo Millions to construct this port.
Chabahar is located in the Gulf of Oman on the border with Pakistan and is just less than hundred kilometers from the Pakistani border city of Gwadar where China is developing a port to groom Pakistan as the gateway to Central Asia. Chabahar is Iran’s closest access point to the Indian Ocean.
Importance of Chabahar Port to India
The Chabahar as a transit point will be the center of a regional trade, investment and transportation hub with links from the Indian Ocean to Central Asia. For the first time in the history, India will get access to the region through friendly nations.
(1) Chabahar and its road connectivity to Central Asia
From Chabahar port, the existing Iranian road network can link up to Zaranj in Afghanistan, about 883 km from the port. The Zaranj-Delaram road constructed by India in 2009 can give access to Afghanistan’s Garland highway, setting up road access to four major Afghan cities –Herat, Kandahar, Kabul and Mazar-e-Sharif. Mazar e Sharif is near to Uzbekistan.
(2) Politically sustainable connectivity between Afghanistan & India
The Chabahar-Zahedan-Zaranj corridor is a potential game-changer for regional connectivity, as it gives an alternative access for Afghanistan to India via the sea. This connectivity will enhance the development nature of economic engagement between the two countries.
(3) Dependency on China sponsored Road and Belt projects to connect with Central Asia will get reduced
At present, central Asia is getting lot of connectivity projects sponsored under the China sponsored Road and Belt Policy. India is not a part of the endeavor and in this context, an own initiative will help India to avoid dependence on China sponsored Central Asian connectivity.
As the West imposed ban on Iran has ended, there will be more expansion of Iran bound trade. India has increased its crude purchase from Iran ever since the end of the ban.
With reducing remittance attraction and reciprocal commitment with Arab countries, Iran may get a higher role in India’s economic engagement.
Hence, in future, there is higher scope and benefit for mutual trade between the two countries and the new port deal is very important as a trade facilitator.

Daytime Running Lights increase your visibility to other motorists and reduce the likelihood of crashes. Even when the parking brake is engaged, the lights remain on. The daytime running lights will also go out when you turn off your car. When the headlight switch is turned on or in automatic mode, the daytime running lights may also turn off.
My DRL light turned on, why?
You should read your owner’s manual to make sure you fully understand the operation of numerous warning and indicator lighting, just like you would with any other unique feature on an automobile. The DRL indicator lamp typically lets you know if your car’s daytime running lights are on and functioning as planned. It typically comes on when you start your automobile and goes off shortly after or when you release the brake pedal. If the DRL lamp is on for a long time, your running lights may have a burned-out bulb or another problem.
When the DRL warning light illuminates while you are driving, the computer has likely identified a problem. A broken bulb or another issue involving the fuses or relays in the DRL circuits could be to blame. It should be noted that the DRL lamp on some vehicles will remain on when your running lights are in use. For clarification, once more refer to your vehicle’s owner’s manual.
A running light system might malfunction due to a number of frequent problems. Your car’s DRL indicator lighting can be working properly, but the lights themselves might not be. Another issue is that while driving, your daytime running lights function OK, however they do not switch off when the engine is turned off. The headlights and running lights on certain cars share the same bulbs. One or more of your running lights may go out if one or more of your headlights fail. Another possibility is that the DRL warning lamp module is broken.
The only thing you might need to do is swap either a fuse or a light bulb. Or the issue can be more complicated and need for a qualified mechanic to examine your vehicle. It would be a good idea to visit an auto parts store and ask for advice. They might be able to attach your automobile to a diagnostics computer and provide you with more information about the issue. It could often turn out to be a straightforward problem that can be resolved.
On the other side, you might need to have a qualified mechanic work on your vehicle. They will have the proper supplies and tools on hand to deal with the issue appropriately if it involves things like faulty or broken wiring. They can do the task for you, allowing you to securely re-enter the road.
Why is my Honda’s DRL light on?
Daytime running lights (DRLs) are a system that automatically activates when a vehicle is started and moving. Daytime running lights are used to increase a vehicle’s visibility during the day and warn other motorists when/if they are in their blind spot. This increases visibility and safety. This feature is very helpful for motorcycle safety because daytime running lights make motorcycles more visible.
The daytime running lights are ON and functioning properly when the DRL indicator light is on. The DRL indication light ought to go out when the headlights come on. The DRL indicator light will not illuminate if there is an issue with the system, unlike other warning indicator lights that do so to show a problem.
When there is a problem with the daytime running lights system, the following signs could be present:
The DRL are operational when the car is in motion, but they continue to function after the vehicle has been stopped.
In some cars, the headlights and daytime running lights share the same light bulbs. For these vehicles, one or both of the daytime running lights will not function if one or both of the headlight light bulbs fail. Other vehicles have separate bulbs for their headlights and daytime running lights, so if one or both of those go out, it won’t affect the other ones. It’s also possible that the DRL lamp module is having issues when the daytime running lights are malfunctioning. Despite the fact that the DRL lamp module is designed to last the whole life of the vehicle, this is uncommon.
Make an appointment with a qualified technician, like one from YourMechanic, if you’re having DRL issues so they can be identified and fixed.
How can my DRL light be fixed?
It’s simple to check if your headlights, fog lights, or taillights are broken. To check if they are operating, you simply turn on the switch. However, the switch for the daytime running lights is not always present. If the weather is not sunny, checking the DRL is the simplest task.
Examine the ambient light sensor.
The dash contains the ambient light sensor. It utilizes automatic lighting features, reads the ambient light, and determines whether to switch on the headlights or the daytime running lights depending on how dark it is outside.
The sensor, which may or may not be in the center of the dash, resembles a half-dome.
Make sure there are no obstructions blocking the ambient light sensor by checking. If something is blocking it, the sensor won’t be able to detect the light, the DRL won’t function, and the headlights will wear out more quickly as a result.
If it’s not sunny outside, shine a very strong light on the sensor to examine it. A flashlight could still be required if bright lights inside a building or in a place like a garage are insufficiently bright.
Check to see if the headlights are off with the key turned on and the flashlight over the sensor. When there is light on the ambient sensor, the headlights shouldn’t switch on, indicating that the sensor is functioning.
With a helper, check to see if the DRLs are on.
When the transmission is in Drive, Reverse, or Neutral, the DRL will activate. Having a helper keep an eye on the headlights while you are doing this is beneficial. Chock the wheels if you don’t have a helper to prevent the car from rolling away.
For the DRL to turn on in some vehicles, the engine must be running, while in others, the e-brake must be released.
Check to determine if the DRL are functioning while the car is in an environment where they will activate.
Check the bulb, socket, and switch if only one DRL is functioning.
One daytime running light that is the only one not functioning most likely has a burned-out bulb or a faulty switch. If the bulb is black or the filament is burned out, which indicates that it needs to be changed, remove the socket from the lamp.
Check to determine if the socket burned or melted because DRL can operate for a very long time; if so, replace it. Check for melting at the bulb’s contact point.
Low Tire Pressure
Every month or whenever the low tire pressure signal on the instrument panel illuminates, tires should be inflated (vehicles equipped with tire pressure monitoring systems).
Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) Indicator
When the ignition is turned ON (II), a possible emissions system problem is indicated by a light that turns off after the engine starts. Any other time it illuminates could indicate a problem with the emissions control system. When this indicator is on, continued operation could cause significant harm.
DRL lights are they automated?
When the engine is running, daytime running lights (DRLs), which are mounted on the front of cars, automatically turn on. Additionally known as daytime running lights.
The objective of the DRL, which should not be mistaken with headlights, is not to improve visibility for drivers on the road or around them. The DRLs’ primary objective is to improve how well other drivers can see your car on the road.
DRLs are frequently manufactured using LED lights rather than halogen headlight bulbs because they are not intended to illuminate the road. LED DRLs emit a bright white light, are energy-efficient, and have a long lifespan.
What exactly do check running lights signify?
A warning message may appear on your dashboard instructing you to check your left and right daytime running lights and sidelights, which means that your headlights are malfunctioning. Normally, an indicator light will illuminate to indicate a problem, but if there is a problem with the DRL system, the indicator light won’t illuminate but a warning message may still appear.
Do DRLs deplete a car’s battery?
Does the DRL Leak Battery Power? No, the daytime running lights do not deplete the battery because they only operate when the engine is running or otherwise triggered, and they only go off when the ignition is turned off.
On a Honda Civic, how do you dim the dashboard lights?
Knowing how to dim dash lights is essential since bright dash lights can be distracting when driving. Fortunately, most autos make this process very simple.
Follow these three steps to turn down the dash lights on a 2017 Honda Civic:
- Start the Honda Civic.
- On the dashboard, look for a knob.
- The dash lights can be adjusted by turning the knob to the right to brighter them or to the left to dim them.
Take a moment to evaluate your auto insurance and make sure you’re equally comfortable with your coverage and costs now that you can drive more comfortably. If you’re not content, right now is the ideal opportunity to use the Jerry app to compare offers.
The Jerry app quickly compiles rates from more than 50 leading insurance providers, including Nationwide, Allstate, and Travelers. Once you’ve decided, they even assist you in canceling your old coverage.
On a Honda Civic, how do you turn off the headlights?
The indication for the auto high beam system turns on. Pull and hold the headlight lever toward you for around 30 seconds or until the indicator flashes once to turn the system on. Pull and hold the headlight lever toward you for around 40 seconds or until the indicator flashes twice to turn the system off.
Can DRL be disabled?
People frequently want to turn off their DRLs so they may sit in their cars with the lights off but the motor running. Maybe they want to use the heater or air conditioner covertly, or maybe they want to charge their phone.
Attending a drive-in movie is one of the most frequently mentioned causes. Families may prefer to sit in their cars with the windows down and the radio playing while the doors are open, but putting the lights directly in the faces of other viewers is quite distracting. We can absolutely understand utilizing the emergency brake to turn off the daytime running lights in this circumstance.
Do daytime running lights drain the battery?
Some drivers claim that operating the DRLs continuously damages the bulbs, depletes the battery, and continuously stresses the alternator. Although the impact is minimal, this is true. Daytime running lights provide increased safety, therefore it’s a little price to pay.
By changing the wiring, DRLs can be made permanently inoperable, however given the above-mentioned safety concerns, we do not advise this.
Contact our trained support staff if you have any additional queries concerning daytime running lights!

Andrew Sacks is involved with medical marijuana and industrial hemp law formation, regulation, and updates in Pennsylvania, and he is often considered the leading legal professional in the state for these matters. In 2015, he was selected by the American Trade Association for Cannabis and Hemp (ATACH) as the only lawyer to serve on their State Level Coalition. He has since worked extensively with the association to promote fair laws surrounding medical marijuana, cannabis, and hemp, focusing largely on how lawyers can advocate legally for people working within those industries. He has spoken at several seminars, including those for theMarijuana Policy Project (MPP), the Pennsylvania Canna-Business Seminar, and the Pennsylvania Bar Association.
Mr. Sacks has personally lobbied state senators in conjunction with ATACH (The American Trade Association for Cannabis and Hemp) to move Pennsylvania’s medical marijuana regulations forward. His efforts have helped Pennsylvania create the medical marijuana program currently in formation. He played an integral part in founding the Pennsylvania and Philadelphia Bar Associations’ Medical Marijuana and Hemp Law Committees and in helping the Pennsylvania Bar Association gain an understanding of the complexities inherent to medical marijuana law. He is now the co-chair of the Pennsylvania Bar Association Medical Marijuana and Hemp Law Committee (appointed by Pennsylvania Bar Association President Sara Austin), as well as the Philadelphia Bar Association Business Law Section: Medical Marijuana and Hemp Committee. But perhaps his best contribution was to get the National Lupus Organization to recognize the benefits of medical marijuana and to change its policy to reflect it.

They said it would never happen. They said the General Assembly was too conservative. They said Pennsylvania, a state where until recently the sale of alcohol on Sundays was frowned upon, would never permit and regulate medical marijuana.
Well, one year after Governor Wolf signed Pennsylvania’s Medical Marijuana Act (“Act”) into law, it has become abundantly clear – they were wrong.
On May 17, 2017 Pennsylvania’s Medical Marijuana Act turns one year old. And while there was justifiable concern at the time of passage that the program would take years to get off the ground, Pennsylvania’s Department of Health (“DOH”) has done a commendable job ensuring that Pennsylvania’s citizens will soon have access to medical marijuana. This article will revisit the progress made over the last twelve months, showcasing the efforts made to bring one of the fastest growing industries to our area.
On June 25, 2016, only one month after the law became effective, the DOH released temporary regulations concerning the safe-harbor provision of the Act. Instead of making the most vulnerable and youngest of patients wait for medical care, the DOH implemented a system where parents and guardians could obtain recommendations from their children’s doctors for the use medical marijuana. If recommended, then the parents could obtain from the DOH a letter stating that their possession of medical marijuana was not a violation of state criminal laws. Albeit limited in scope, the program has already approved over 200 applications for safe-harbor letters.
Then, beginning in the fall of 2016 the DOH began releasing temporary regulations concerning the supply side of the medical marijuana industry. First, general regulations concerning permit applications were released alongside specific regulations for the growing and processing of medical marijuana.
Shortly thereafter, regulations concerning dispensaries and testing facilities were released. While many feared that the DOH would take years to release such detailed regulations, in less than six months of passage, entrepreneurs were already being shown the road map for medical marijuana in Pennsylvania. Instantly, plans of operation, diversity statements and community impact proposals started to be drafted. Regulations concerning everything from fertilizers to transportation manifests were now being studied by prospective applicants. One thing was clear, however, the speed and thoughtfulness with which the regulations were released evidenced a willingness from the DOH to get this industry started as quickly and reasonably as possible.
As the kids would say, “things got real” on December 21, 2016 when DOH Secretary Murphy held a press conference advising that permit applications to grow/process and dispense medical marijuana would be made available in January 2017 and due on March 20, 2017. Moreover, at the December press conference, the DOH articulated the number of permits to be released in phase 1 and the manner in which the permit will be spread across the Commonwealth. During this initial phase of applications, only 12 permits to grow/process medical marijuana and only 27 permits to dispense medical marijuana would be released.
Although specific numbers are not yet available, DOH estimated that by March 20, 2017 approximately 900 applicants submitted the required fees and forms to enter the medical marijuana industry. DOH is currently in the process of cataloging and reviewing these applications, which the winners expected to be announced this summer.
DOH has also made sure that the demand side of the medical marijuana industry is up and running. A physician’s work group was created to ensure that the medical profession continues to play an integral role in the regulation drafting. Moreover, in April 2017 the Department released draft temporary regulations for physicians wishing to recommend medical marijuana to their patients.
While Pennsylvania has made incredible strides over the last year, perhaps more exciting is the promise of more to come. With the passage of the Act, a Medical Marijuana Advisory Board was created. Tasked with various obligations, this Board will serve an integral role in shaping the future of medical marijuana in Pennsylvania. At about the same our first dispensaries open their doors (Spring 2018) the Medical Marijuana Advisory Board will be issuing a report to the DOH with various recommendations including, but not limited to, the possible expansion of this industry. Issues such as the sale of dry leaf/flower and additions to the list of qualified medical conditions will all be addressed by the advisory board. Given the trend seen in other states, it is not unreasonable to start planning for an expansion of this market.
For now though, Pennsylvania residents can bask with a sense of pride. Refusing to get bogged down in red tape, our DOH has plowed ahead. Medical marijuana is here to stay, and Pennsylvania is making sure it doesn’t get left behind.

Beepocalypse? No. In bee-market victory, colonies adapted to change.
You’ve heard the news about honeybees. “Beepocalypse,” they’ve called it. Beemageddon. America’s honeybees are dying, putting honey production and $15 billion worth of pollinated food crops in jeopardy.
Earlier this year, the White House even put forth the first “National Strategy to Promote the Health of Honey Bees and Other Pollinators.”
The trouble all began in 2006 or so, when beekeepers first began noticing mysterious dieoffs. It was soon christened “Colony Collapse Disorder” and has been responsible for the loss of 20 to 40 percent of managed honeybee colonies each winter over the past decade.
The math says that if you lose 30 percent of your colonies every year for a fewyears, you rapidly end up with close to zero. But the number of honeybee colonies has actually risen since 2006, from 2.4 million to 2.7 million in 2014, according to the USDA. The 2014 numbers show that the number of commercial honey-producing colonies managed by beekeepers is the highest it’s been in 20 years.
So if CCD is wiping out close to a third of all honeybee colonies a year, how are their numbers rising? One word: Beekeepers.
A 2012 working paper by Randal R. Tucker and Walter N. Thurman, a pair of agricultural economists, explains that seasonal die-offs have always been a part of beekeeping: They report that before CCD, American beekeepers would typically lose 14 percent of their colonies a year, on average.
So beekeepers have devised two ways to replenish their stock. The first involves splitting one healthy colony in two: put half the bees into a new beehive, order them a new queen online (retail price: $25 or so), and voila. Or you can buy a bunch of bees to replace the ones you lost. Three pounds of “packaged” bees, plus a queen, costs about $100.
Beekeepers have been doing this sort of thing since the advent of commercial beekeeping. The price of some of that extra work will be passed onto the consumer: The average retail price of honey has roughly doubled since 2006.
Still, it’s no “beepocalypse.” In fact, Tucker and Thurman call this a victory for the free market: “Not only was there not a failure of bee-related markets,” they conclude, “but they adapted quickly and effectively to the changes induced by the appearance of Colony Collapse Disorder.”

It was the day before Thanksgiving when one of the NFL’s best young punters first felt off. Wednesdays are always the Colts’ longest, most grueling workouts of the week, and that’s the first thing that popped into Rigoberto Sanchez’s mind: He was probably just tired, his body worn down from the rigors of the season.
He’d made it through his punting routine and started on kickoffs, but the pain kept grabbing at him.
Pretty soon, he realized something wasn’t right.
It wasn’t typical soreness. Wasn’t a tired leg. This was different — enough to spur Sanchez, one of the quietest players on the entire roster, to speak up about it. He mentioned to Colts assistant special-teams coordinator Frankie Ross that he wasn’t himself, that this pain had him worried a little bit.
Right away, Ross knew something was up.
“You’re not the type of guy to cry about these things,” he told Sanchez.
But good thing he did.
Because later that week, Sanchez, the Colts’ 26-year-old punter, was leveled with life-changing news: He had a cancerous tumor and needed surgery to remove it.
“One of those things you just never think is going to happen to you,” Sanchez said. “You think you’re young and you can do anything and you’re going to be fine for a long time.”
But before he could have the surgery, he faced a decision: The Colts were scheduled to play the Titans in a matter of days, and Sanchez didn’t think the team would be able to sign a punter — and have that punter pass the proper COVID-19 protocols — in time to suit up that Sunday. Sanchez’s surgery was scheduled for the Tuesday after the game. He went to his doctors with a question.
“Can I play? And if I do, can I make it any worse?”
No, they told him. There was likely to be pain, but he wasn’t going to hurt his chances of a successful operation.
Easy call, then. Sanchez would play. Whatever it took.
“I wasn’t gonna do that to my team,” he said Wednesday, 16 days removed from a successful surgery and, improbably, already back on the practice field. “At the end of the day, I don’t think they were going to be able to get a punter in in time.”
It was a busy afternoon. The Colts’ offense struggled that afternoon, and Sanchez was needed. He punted five times for an average of 40.4 yards per kick but yielded kickoff duties to the Colts’ rookie placekicker, Rodrigo Blankenship.
What most of Sanchez’s teammates didn’t know at the time: He was having surgery to remove the tumor in less than 48 hours.
“I wasn’t looking for any sort of pity,” Sanchez said. “My mentality was to go out there and do the best for my team.”
He did. But that doesn’t mean there weren’t a few trying moments.
“Pregame, I had a couple of moments to myself where I couldn’t hold it in,” Sanchez said. “Your mind starts playing games, and you start thinking the worst.”
After he announced the news on Instagram a day later, the support started to roll in. From his teammates, his coaches, the entire NFL community. One video came from former Colts coach Chuck Pagano, who was diagnosed with leukemia during the 2012 season, fought it, beat it and returned later that season.
“I could go on for hours (talking about) the amount of support I received,” Sanchez said.
On Wednesday, the first time he’s addressed the diagnosis publicly, Sanchez wouldn’t reveal which part of his body the tumor was located but did say “it’s looking pretty good” with regard to whether he is cancer-free. The good news in all of this, he said, was that the doctors caught the tumor early and it didn’t spread to any other parts of his body.
“The numbers are pretty low,” Sanchez said. “The doctors definitely told me it’s looking pretty good.”
Which, naturally, has the punter thinking ahead: He wants to play football again this season, improbable as that might sound. He was a full participant in Wednesday’s practice, and the Colts haven’t ruled him out for Sunday’s game against Houston.
He was back in the building last week and back on the practice field Wednesday. Asked if his punter was expected to return so soon after the surgery, Colts special teammates coordinator Bubba Ventrone was succinct: “I would say no.”
But here he is, back in the fold, with three games left and the playoffs on the line.
“I’m just so thankful that they caught it early and it didn’t spread anywhere in my body,” he said. “I’m so thankful for the Colts, for the locker room, and Indiana as well. It’s incredible how things play out sometimes. I could’ve gone to any other team, (but) Indiana is where it’s at with medicine. It’s amazing to be back.”

AIG's ILFC unit buyer to get gov't help - source
NEW YORK, March 1
NEW YORK, March 1 (Reuters) - The U.S. government is expected to help the buyer of American International Group Inc's (AIG.N) aircraft leasing unit with financing, a source familiar with the matter said on Sunday.
AIG is selling International Lease Finance Corp, one of the world's largest aircraft leasing companies, as part of its efforts to sell assets to pay back the government.
But potential bidders for the unit, which had a book value of about $7.5 billion as of Sept. 30, have had to face the challenge of coming up with the funds needed to finance the business. (Reporting by Paritosh Bansal, editing by Maureen Bavdek)

98 Park Ave Ultra Interior Switches electrical problem
I've got a strange issue with my Buicks. (2 , a 97 and 98) Both exhibit similar problems. Both all the sudden have the ABS and Traction Control lights illuminated on the dash indicating that they are not working. At the same time,,, the Steering Wheel Switches stopped working and also the Radio. In the 98,,, something even more odd occurs. The Radio will all of the sudden start working,,, and as soon as I depress ANY of the drivers side Window Lift Switches,,,, the Radio stops working for a while again and then starts again about 2-5 minutes later. Is this a Bad Ground wire somewhere by chance? If so,,, where do I start looking? Thanks Much!!
UPDATE. Last night I disconnected the battery on the 98 Park Ave.. Re-connected it this AM and nothing resolved at all. In fact,,, the Fuel Gauge now Does Not Work. (The needle went all the way around past full to the post inside the Sw. WTF?? Checked all the fuses under the hood yesterday. All OK. Any ideas anyone??
It is almost certainly a bad ground that affects almost the whole car. There is a wad of wires that bolt to the engine block near the oil pan. Remove that and clean all of the eyelets and then install hte bolt and torque it to about 15 lb-ft. There are many grounds on this car. Pull back the carpeting from the firewall and check anything that attaches to the sheetmetal.
Have the same problem in re the traction control light, Air bag, interior lights, etc. Jim's answer regarding grounds sounds likely and (GM!) 'logical'. You can bet I'll be checking my own grounding bundle. As for the fuel guage; another beautiful piece of....GM engineers' logic process (bet you thought I was going to say 'piece of' something else, didn't you? There are two ways to fix this quasi-accidental design flaw. (1) take your Park Avenue to your GM dealer (be sure to take a large bag of money!), or (2) get a powerful magnet, such as a agricultural one. Shut your engine off, place the magnet directly over the instrument panel face above the fuel needle, and turn the magnet count clockwise. It (the needle) will move back to a "reset" position and STAY there after the magnet is removed. I know is sounds stupid, but IT WORKS. When you're done, it will be just fine (until the NEXT time your battery goes flat/has to be disconnected for ANY reason. When you get the fuel guage "fixed", take a drive by your Buich dealer, lean on the horn--assuming IT'S still operating--and give the whole gang a great big social finger! ;-)
...regarding the speedometer needle: I solved a problem such as this a few years back, with a standard, 2 dollar magnet from Harbor Freight. Just be careful not to scratch the plastic instrument panel. (piece of kitchen towel works fine) People could not believe it solved the problem...in about 2 seconds!
i have a buick park avenue 97 same issue it turned out to be a ground for my tail lights was loose and barely touching anything. all dash lights would illuminate over hard bumps and when i pressed the brake my radio turned off.. which led me to the trunk.. so ya check your grounds
I'm having the same problem with my 99 buick steering wheel switches don't work and radio doesn't work what's was the resolution to the problem please and thanks
Been many many years since I first initiated this thread! :) I still have the car but am about to finally sell it. The folks talking about the gauges are correct. I didn't have a big enough magnet so I did the caveman solution and drilled a supper tiny hole near the lower part of each gauge. Insert a paperclip wire and rotate the gauge needle back to where it belongs. when the battery goes dead or gets really low,, these gauges go haywire and get stuck on the backside of the end post. just have to be rotated back around to get on the other side of the end post. ON THE OTHER ISSUE,,, about the steering wheel switches and the radio going out at the same time. There is a power connection/junction block on the passenger side fender where a large power cable goes into. There are some metal plates in the bottom of these block that get corroded and act as a bad power source/ground and it's what caused my issue. See picture! I did not find it myself. I took it to a good electrical shop and it took them 15 minutes to locate the problem. If your issue is not here,, you need to check ALL electrical connections to the body and to the engine. It's most likely a bad ground wire somewhere but they are hard to find. Look where I told you first because you cannot see it easily. If they hadn't found it,, I never would have!!

Since having a baby, the kind who’s not into naps, I’ve been finding it hard to eat well. For a while, I was entirely dependent on string cheese, since it could be eaten with one hand. Then I discovered sprinkles. Not the rainbow colored ones you put on ice-cream (I wish!) — the chia and flax seed kind. They have fiber, Omega-3s, and other good stuff. I keep them in the fridge in shaker bottles and sprinkle them onto yogurt, oatmeal, cold cereal, soup, and even my PB&J sandwiches. It takes maybe five seconds, I don’t even taste them, and I get an extra shot of nutrition.
For more no-brainer ways to health up my diet, I consulted Angela Lemond, RDN, a registered dietitian nutritionist in Plano, Texas, and spokesperson for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. She gave me eight ideas for what she calls “food boosters” — ones you add to stuff you’re already eating to get more nutrition bang for your buck. As she says, “These foods help [parents] maintain steady energy levels throughout the day, while also making them feel good about their food choices.” I’ll eat to that!
Food booster: Baby spinach
Why it’s good for you: “Spinach is one of the most nutrient-rich, common foods in the grocery store,” says Lemond. “It is an excellent source of 13 vitamins and minerals including vitamin A, magnesium, iron, calcium and potassium. And it packs a dozen different anti-cancer properties.”
Goes great with … “Spinach is such an easy power substitution for iceberg or romaine lettuce on sandwiches and wraps,” she notes. “You can also add the sautéed kind to your morning scrambled eggs.” And of course, add some spinach leaves to whatever salad you’re eating.
Food booster: Pumpkin seeds
Why it’s good for you: “Compared to almonds, pumpkin seeds are lower in calories and carbohydrates,” says Lemond. “They are also higher in minerals such as potassium and iron.”
Goes great with … Yogurt and salad.
Food booster: Wild blueberries
Why it’s good for you: “Find these berries, grown commercially in Maine, in the freezer section in the store,” says Lemond. “They give a big anti-cancer punch.”
Goes great with … Cottage cheese, plain Greek yogurt, and frozen yogurt. During the holidays, add 1/2 cup per serving of eggnog.
Food booster: Chickpeas
Why it’s good for you: They pack protein, fiber, and key nutrients including iron, folate, and zinc.
Goes great with … Salads and veggie sides. “I like to toast them,” says Lemond. “Just spread drained and rinsed chickpeas on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and roast at 400 degrees for about 30 minutes until crunchy. Sprinkle with spices and add to salads or trail mix.”
Food booster: Mushrooms
Why it’s good for you: “This is the only produce item that naturally contains vitamin D, which is a nutrient of concern for most Americans,” says Lemond. “Portobellos have the highest amounts.”
Goes great with … Salad, soup, and beef dishes including burgers, meatloaf, and meatballs.
Food booster: Pistachios
Why it’s good for you: Like most nuts, pistachios have protein and fiber; unlike most nuts, they contains the same amount of potassium as half a banana.
Goes great with … Casseroles or baked fish — just sprinkle chopped ones on top. “After a workout or for a snack, I love to eat pistachios with a banana or a handful of raspberries,” says Lemond. “You can also serve a mix of pistachio kernels and dried cranberries as a colorful appetizer during the holidays.”
Food booster: Lentils
Why it’s good for you: They deliver protein, fiber, potassium, and folate.
Goes great with … Salads and soups. “Lentils make a delicious dip — blend them with olive oil and spices much like you do with chickpeas when making hummus,” says Lemond. “Or blend lentils into meat to add a dimension of texture and nutrition to entrées.”
Food booster: Trail mix
(OK, technically not something you add to food but: yum!)
Why it’s good for you: It packs protein and healthy carbs, delivering a serious shot of energy.
Goes great with … Sleep-deprived, no-time-to-eat parents! A recipe that’s a fave of Lemond’s clients: Mix 1 cup regular, low-sugar, whole grain Cereal O’s; 1 cup whole-grain cheddar crackers or pretzels; 1/3 cup your favorite nuts or seeds; and 1/3 cup dried fruit such as raisins or cranberries. Shovel into your mouth whenever possible.More On

It's a phenomenon we all know too well: We all have that friend or parent or sibling who, despite a dozen well-intentioned loved ones' warnings, goes ahead and gets into a relationship that's not right for them at all. It's easy enough to look back in retrospect and see how clearly you really did know that something was bad for you; Youdid see that danger was ahead, only to ignore it and go forth anyway. We have a tendency to ignore red flags, even when they're significantly abundant, and stick to our ideas regardless. There are a number of reasons for this. Here, the 5 most relevant ones, regarding why we refuse to listen, and do what we know is best for us in the end:
We cling to what's comfortable and familiar, even if it's bad for us
We are psychologically and biologically programmed to desire steadiness, certainty and comfort. This is equatable to survival. It means that we've ensured our existence for at least as long as we can maintain whatever it is we have in our lives. This is the main reason we accept less-than-ideal situations for ourselves: if it's tolerable, we think it's acceptable, and we confuse "acceptable" with "ideal," because that's what our survival instincts would have us believe.
We doubt our instincts when they tell us something is wrong
Even when we do see flashing red flags, we don't know how to identify them as red flags because we don't trust ourselves or our ability to accurately gauge a situation. We've been wrong in the past. We could be nit-picking. We tell ourselves that we ultimately have to overlook the not-so-desirable traits someone possesses to love them for who they really are; we shouldn't be so judgment and hold such impossible standards for other people to be perfect. Maybe, we tell ourselves, we're egregiously overreacting and need to just relax. But there is a difference—an enormous difference—between accepting someone entirely and willfully overlooking signs that indicate they could actually be truly detrimental to our well-being.
We don't see things as they are—we see them as we are
The downside of feeling strong, confident, positive and healthy, is that you can project those qualities onto things and people who don't merit them. In the same way that being in a bad mood can make even good things seem awful, being in a great place and wanting love and happiness can cause you to erroneously see it where it doesn't exist. If we're in a place of simply just needing to believe a lie to make ourselves feel better, we will. If we choose to overlook the ways we're not being good to ourselves, we'll be equally as inclined to disregard the ways other people do the same.
We choose the mistake because we want the lesson
Sometimes, we do see the red flags—and we go into something anyway. We subconsciously know that there is tremendous learning potential in every experience—even the worst ones give us something incredible to learn. Do I mean to imply we intentionally hurt ourselves? Not quite. We subconsciously but still intentionally choose to have experiences that will grow, heal and change us in the end, even if they hurt like hell initially. Sometimes we have to be smacked awake. Sometimes we need to see what's wrong to know what would be right. There's nobody in the world who knows how to police us into a better life more than ourselves.
Despite all the reasons not to be, we're still hopeful
Really, despite all the evidence stacked in the favor of love being a lie and a good life an obsolete or elusive phenomenon only achieved on Pinterest boards, we still have hope. We're still swiping our way into a date Friday night, or applying to a new job (if not just simply hoping for something else to come along). We sometimes overlook the red flags because we actually want to see the best in everything, and it's in realizing that we disillusioned ourselves about reality that we become jaded with the world. It was never a matter of what happened on the outside, it was only how we assumed things would ultimately be.

Juan Cole on Bush accepting a time-something:
Bush has agreed in all but name with Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki on a timetable for US troop withdrawal from that country. As usual Bush's staff made up an implausible euphemism for the timetable, calling it a "time horizon" for "aspirational goals?" Language like that is a sure sign that Bush is too embarrassed to call it like it is.
