She could feel that touch of his hands, his strong digits clutching tighter at her clothing but she didn’t mind the crumples that would form, if not she was all welcoming his touch where she was able to sense his love and feelings. His emotions were so clear as she molded her form to his, letting him pour out his feelings in movements instead of words while she continued to stroke his back soothingly, rubbing in circles and occasionally lifting a hand to toy with his short moss brown locks, running her digits through his soft strands while listening to him carefully.
"I know…" A gentle, soft smile spread itself upon her lips as her expression softened, nodding slightly while she pulled him into a tighter hug, letting her warmth mold to his and now she could understand what was going through his mind, one that she shook her head at his apology and letting her lips press another kiss to a different spot on his temple, exhaling faintly there, letting her scent engulf him. "…So you were doing a little reminiscing, then.." Her voice was almost cooing, soothing like running water over the burning wounds. She could recall those times, how it was trying times for them. So many occasions that almost pulled them apart, both intentionally and unintentionally. But none of them succeeded.
"It’s alright, really… I do that sometimes too.. There’s nothing to be sorry for." She assured him, heaving soft exhale as he loosened his arms a little and she nuzzled her expression to his caressing digits, turning her head to kiss in the middle of his palm.
"My work isn’t urgent, so it’s okay. And yeah, I did eat after the meeting, before I come back to the office." Her hand reached out, brushing through his hair lovingly with an affectionate smile on her lips. "And you? Eaten something yet?"
His eyes softened greatly to how you kissed his hand that was caressing your cheek— a tender caress as his silver eyes that always had a strong hint of glare upon them lit in a softer glow. How the sight of your smile and how you softly informed that you didn’t mind it in the least, despite how he was sure so many others would’ve just told him he was being silly. That he should toughen up or anything of the sort but trulyto him, he knew how lucky he was to have his heart reciprocated by the one he loves most— and how you were understanding to his fears. That you didn’t belittle him for them but rather allowed him to feel safe from them at times like these. And honestly, for you to be the person who has penetrated the darkness of his life with your affections, how can he not be afraid if that light should be taken away from him? And well given his conditions, lets just say fear naturally affects him more than most.
"Mm.. a little, yes.." he replied in a softer whisper as he kept his eyes in a tender gaze, closing in a brief moment as he felt your lips to his temple tenderly, making him release a small sigh in relief. Right.. still a mystery— how you could do this; a single kiss and his thoughts were silenced, focusing solely on you.
You assured him that you’ve had your fill of food for lunch, making his lips smile softly, especially at how your fingers brushed his hair aside a little, where his own hand came, catching your more delicate one and bringing it to his lips adoringly, nuzzling his expression there in want. “Mm.. that’s good.. and um no, I haven’t..” he smiled softly before aligning your palm to his right cheek— savoring the only plus of having his temporary younger form back in this time being; how without the scar that was suppose to numb that side of his features, he’d be able to feel your warmth. “…I’m.. not too hungry. But i”ll have a little to eat later..”
His silver eyes lifted back to you— where couldn’t help leaning in, barely claiming your lips in almost-kisses before tempted to properly claim it— a singular, tender kiss that had his eyes momentarily close before he left them there to graze in a small sigh. “…Really.. I don’t know what I’d do without you, love…” he whispered, nuzzling his lips to yours in a tender gaze.
"…Just.. wanted you to know that.. I guess.." Ah.. its like his emotions and logical side of him was battling— where he was fighting the echo in reminder that you’d have to go up already. You were at work after all, but given his way, he’d just have stolen you for the day and have you with him instead though alas, that wasn’t going to happen was it? His eyes somber as he whispered, almost as though he didn’t want to ask but he knew he should.
"…Do you.. have to go up..?" Oi, Rasheed. You’re suppose to tell her to go up not ask her that!

Confocal Raman spectroscopy (CRS) technology has wide applications, especially in the biomedical field. CRS provides non-destructive, contrast-free and molecule-specific quantitative measurement of samples, including biological tissues. These advantages make it ideal for human skin characterization. We present a portable dual-wavelength CRS system with a handheld measurement probe which connected to the console by optical fibers. To achieve fast switching between the two wavelengths, a fast 2-to-1 fiber array multiplexing module was used. A large bandwidth could be covered at each measurement point in real time. We performed system characterization for this proposed CRS system and measured different samples.

Walmart begins holiday sales at 10 p.m. on Thanksgiving Day
The unofficial start of the Holiday season known as Black Friday began on Thanksgiving night when the consumer superstore Walmart ditched the traditional early Friday morning opening for a 10 p.m. start on Thursday the 24th. This marked the first time the seasonal deals began on Thanksgiving rather than the day after.
Consumer buzz for Black Friday 2011 had been building for over a month when ads for Walmart, Best Buy, and Target leaked in early November.
Walmart, which is based out of Bentonville, Ark., let its shoppers get the earliest deals when it started the savings at 10 p.m, followed by Best Buy,Target and Toys ‘R’ Us at midnight and numerous other stores like Radio Shack, Lowe’s and Office Max at 5 a.m.
Walmart was unavailable to comment on the new Black Friday store hours.
Target reacts to Walmart
Billy Hanlon is an Executive Team Leader at the River Hills Mall Target location, and he says that other stores are forced to react to the earlier Black Friday start.
“It enforces the fact that retail is all about competition. Prices, hours, products, etc. There are sacred days that should be left for the employees and Walmart is part of the trend taking those days away slowly.”
Target opened it doors at midnight, it’s earliest start ever.
“The reason for opening earlier is to meet the needs for more consumers.” Hanlon said, “So, they expect more business for consumers who are more apt to wait until midnight to go and shop than consumers sleeping for a few hours and going in at 4 a.m.”
Families to change plans, shop earlier
Erin Connelly and her mom Lisa, of Eagan MN. are no strangers to Black Friday. Lisa has been Black Friday shopping for over 10 years, and Erin joined her in the shopping tradition four years ago. They will eat their Thanksgiving dinner early and head out to get in line at Walmart at 8:30 p.m.
“It’s a little sad we can’t lay around all day anymore after our Thanksgiving feast,” Erin, 22 said. “But the best deals are on Black Friday and we plan to get most of our Christmas shopping done that day.”
The Connelly’s went to Walmart, Best Buy, and Target on Black Friday, and said they have never seen so many shoppers.
Lisa said, “Walmart was easily the craziest, people were everywhere and it took over two hours just to get through the check-out line.”
2011 Black Friday Figures
The Connelly’s were two of a record 226 million shoppers who went Black Friday shopping this year,according to the National Retail Federation, just one of the many retail records set in 2011. Other record figures include:
- 52.4 billion dollars in total sales
- The average consumer spent $398.62
- 24.4% of consumers were at stores at midnight, compared to 9.2% in 2010 and 3.3% in 2009
This year’s sales represented a 6% increase from 2010.

A sample of my work :) I hope you enjoy
I look into the midnight sky, seeing the beauty of stars
Looking up I see your face among them.
The stars seem to outline the beauty in your face.
They make your eyes glow, and show the gateway to your soul.
I see the good and the bad, the kindness and the hate.
They show me your determination and your curiosity.
The sun begins to rise, obscuring my view.
I close my eyes, to keep my view of this perfection.
I feel the wind blow across my face, like a soft caress,
When I open my eye's I stare in awe to see,
That the stars are standing there before me.
A million wishes, a million dreams, could not make this
a more perfect scene.
But, just as suddenly as it begins, then does it fade away,
leaving only the faintest impression, like the dream of a dream.
Leaving me wishing, to remember what might have been,
Leaving me waiting, for the next fallen star.
As I said, I am a poet, it is through words and the expression of them that someone can get to understand who and what a person is. The emotion they feel, their heart and soul, they all come alive.

The GTS version of the 246 Dino arrived at the Geneva Salon in March 1972, it was built on the series III platform and featured a removable targa roof panel that could be stowed behind the seats. The chassis was also modified with reinforced extra bracing along the sides and front of the engine frame. Aside the targa top visibly the GTS could be identified by the lack of rear three-quarter windows, these being replaced by a bank of three vents carved out from each sail panel. Production of both the GT and GTS came to an end in 1974, just 1274 GTSs were built.
This example was built in late 1973 and delivered by Autobecker in May 1974 to its first owner. The car was presented in the striking colour combination of Blu Dino Metallizato with Crema interior. The first owner amazingly kept the car until his death in circa 2004, even following this, the car remained with the same family until 2013. A real one family owner car from new. After 40 years eventually the car left its original custodians and was purchased by a dealer.
This remarkable Dino had remained in superb condition always being extremely well maintained. However, at this time the decision was made to restore the car, albeit very sympathetically. In 2013 the car was purchased by its current and only second private owner who had the interior changed to Nero. The car remains in superb condition and has again been extremely well maintained in recent years. Amazingly the car is accompanied by its original tool kit and book pack complete with spare keys, instruction manual and even warranty card. The car is available to view immediately in our showrooms just outside London.

Alyvia Weber Coloring Pages, 2020-06-12 04:06:42. Good Parenting at preschool stage of toddlers, A good parenting must consider the understanding about the preschool period of child. According to studies, preschool period of child’s life cycle is vital to convey awareness. In every country, children often start school when they are just three years old and spend two years in the preschool or kindergarten section of the school before they start Year 1 – first grade – at the age of five or six. When it comes to learning, parents can help with number awareness – being able to recite from one to 10 is not the same as understanding the value and place of numbers. Talk to your child about quantities, for example, five is bigger than two. Concentrate on counting; playing dominoes and simple board games, such as Snakes and Ladders, will teach children how to count while making it fun.
Daniella Good Coloring Pages, 2020-12-01 16:48:36. There are several different soap coloring options that are available to soap makers and crafters. The first types of dyes that you can use to color your soap are natural soap colorants. These soap colorants use natural ingredients to tint your soap. For example Turmeric can be used to give your soap a golden glow, Moroccan Red Clay can be used to give your soap a brick red color, and alfalfa can be used to give your soap a green color.
Lyric Farmer Coloring Pages, 2020-11-28 18:17:25. Rapid Knowledge of things, Like already said picture lessons are easily retained by children more than any other thing. When they have pictures to color (say an animal), they take notice of the lines, shape, form and names. This will help them recognize such picture next time they see it. Easy recognition of things helps build their overall knowledge with time.
Ryann Hill Coloring Pages, 2020-12-01 16:49:28. Coloring options also include micas. Micas can be classified as both a natural colorant as well as a manufactured colorant. This is because the basic mica is mined form natural sources, however, it is then coated with laboratory created coloring agents on one side to create a shimmering effect. Micas are best suited for coloring clear soaps. In addition to these two soap coloring options you can also use FD&C colorants. These colorants are made in a laboratory and they do not come from natural sources. Because these colorants can be mass produced they are generally inexpensive and widely available.
Ramona Delaney Coloring Pages, 2020-12-01 16:46:34. As mentioned previously, the most popular color by number books offer animation characters as well as pets or countryside animals. Little ones really like toons and animals, thus, each and every child will like fascinating color pages that might differ in complexity. A lot of coloring printables have 2-4 colours as well as numbers, at the same time you may get complex ones as well (above 10 colours). Making use of computer games in teaching became a professional methodology across the world. Moreover, fathers and mothers may make use of color pages at home to get ready children for school. The greatest benefit from this particular methodology is the fact that boys and girls adore it! You may even motivate your children by providing prizes and also rewards for selecting the appropriate colors.
Ryann Hill Coloring Pages, 2020-11-28 18:22:37. When one colors, all negative emotions should wear off. Once you empty your brain and heart of those negative feelings that make you stressed out, there should be more room for positivity. Since you are positive and filled with good energy after coloring, there must be no difficulty in continuing your job with full productivity. In the end, coloring is soothing. There are so many proofs and studies on that. When something soothes you, it cannot be harmful. So, this must be a good reason to seize this as an opportunity to make your crew at the company both positive, cheerful and stress-free or encouraged to cope with their work.

Prophets Idris, Shuaib, Haroon
Mu' meneen Brothers and Sisters,
As Salaam Aleikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh. (May Allah's Peace, Mercy and Blessings be upon all of you)
One of our brothers/sisters has asked this question:
asslamu alaikum wa rahmatulla wa barakhatu
could u plz give me some infomation on the prophets idris,shuaib,aaron and other prophets which people dont kno much about.could u also give me infomation on all 4 of the caliphs
(There may be some grammatical and spelling errors in the above statement. The forum does not change anything from questions, comments and statements received from our readers for circulation in confidentiality.)
Prophets Idris, Shuaib, Haroon
In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that there is no one (no idol, no person, no grave, no prophet, no imam, no dai, nobody!) worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad(saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.
Ref: Prophet Idris (a.s.)
Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 19 Surah Maryam verses 56-57:
56 Also mention in the Book the story of Idris: he was a man of Truth (and sincerity) (and) a Prophet:
57 And We raised him to a lofty station.
Although Prophet Idris (a.s.) is mentioned by name in the Glorious Quran twice, there are very few details in the Quran and Sunnah about his people and the place where he was sent as a Prophet of Allah. Most scholars are of the opinion that the era of Prophet Idris (a.s.) was between Prophet Adam (a.s.) and Prophet Nuh (a.s.).
The commentators are also of the opinion that Prophet Idris (a.s.) was Enoch as mentioned in the Old Testament. Because the Quran and Sunnah are silent on the details of the time and place of Prophet Idris (a.s.), we cannot confirm with surety, nor deny with conviction about what is written about Enoch from the available Scriptures of the People of the Book.
It is written in Genesis 5: 21-24:
And Enoch lived sixty and five yars, and begat Methuselah. And Enoch walked with God after he begat Methuselah three hundred years
In the Talmud pp. 18-21 further details are given about Enoch:
Before Noah, when the decendants of Adam began to degenerate, the Angel of God called to Enoch, who led a pious life away from the people, and said: O Enoch, arise, come out from seclusion, and go about among the people of the earth, guiding them to the path which they should follow, and the ways which they should adopt.
Receiving this Divine Commandment, Enoch left his seclusion and gathered the people together and preached to them what he had been commanded, with the result that they listened to him, and adopted the worship of God. Enoch ruled over mankind 353 years: his rule was based on justice and truth, and consequently God favored mankind will all kinds of blessings.
Ref: Prophet Shuaib (a.s.)
The story, people, and the events that took place at the time of Prophet Shuaib (a.s.) is mentioned in great detail in Several Surahs of the Holy Quran.
Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 7 Surah Aaraaf verses 85-93:
85 To the Madyan people We sent Shu`aib, one of their own brethren: he said: "O my people! Worship Allah; Ye have no other god but Him. Now hath come unto you a clear (sign) from your Lord! Give just measure and weight nor withhold from the people the things that are their due; and do no mischief on the earth after it has been set in order: that will be best for you if ye have faith.
86 And squat not on every road breathing threats hindering from the path of Allah those who believe in Him and seeking in it something crooked; but remember how ye were little and He gave you increase. And hold in your mind's eye what was the end of those who did mischief.
87 And if there is a party among you who believes in the message with which I have been sent, and a party which does not believe, hold yourselves in patience until Allah doth decide between us: for He is the best to decide."
88 The leaders of the arrogant party among his people said: "O Shu`aib! We shall certainly drive thee out of our city (thee) and those who believe with thee: or else ye (thou and they) shall have to return to our ways and religion." He said: "What! Even though we do detest (them)?
89 We should indeed invent a lie against Allah if we returned to your ways after Allah hath rescued us therefrom: nor could we by any manner of means return thereto unless it be as in the Will and plan of Allah Our Lord. Our Lord can reach out to the utmost recesses of things by His knowledge. In Allah is our trust. Our Lord! Decide Thou between us and our people in truth for Thou art the best to decide."
90 The leaders the unbelievers among his people said "if ye follow Shu`aib be sure then ye are ruined!"
91 But the earthquake took them unawares and they lay prostrate in their homes before the morning!
92 The men who rejected Shu`aib became as if they had never been in the homes where they had flourished: the men who rejected Shu`aib it was they who were ruined!
93 So Shu`aib left them saying: "O my people! I did indeed convey to you the messages for which I was sent by my Lord: I gave you good counsel but how shall I lament over a people who refuse to believe!
Prophet Shuaib (a.s.) was appointed a Messenger of Allah to the people of a territory called Madyan, which lay to the north-west of Hijaz and to the south of Palestine in the eastern side of the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aqabah, and extended to a part of the Sinai Peninsula.
The Madianites were in the path of a commercial highway of Asia, viz., that between two such opulent and highly organized nations as Egypt and the Mesopotamian group comprising Assyria and Babylonia. Their besetting sins can be characterized as:
committing the heinous crime of shirk or associating other gods with Allah Subhanah.
giving short measure or weight,
a more general form of such fraud, depriving people of rightful dues,
producing mishchief and disorder, whereas peace and order had been established
not content with upsetting settled life, taking to highway robbery,
And rejecting the Message and Mission of the Prophet sent to them.
The preaching of Prophet Shuaib (a.s.) fell on deaf ears amongst his people, and the majority of the Madianites rejected him. At long last, Allah Subhanah delivered Prophet Shuaib (a.s.) and the believers to safety, and consequently completely anhiliated the territory of Madyan with a devastating earthquake.
Ref: Prophet Haroon (a.s.)
The story of Prophet Haroon (a.s.) is linked in the Glorious Quran with his younger brother, and one of the mightiest Messengers of Allah, Prophet Musa (a.s.). The story of Prophet Musas mission and challenge of the evil Pharoah is found in most of the major Surahs of the Glorious Quran.
Prophet Haroon (a.s.) was a few years older to Prophet Musa (a.s.), and was born in Egypt in the year where the new-born boys of the Bani Israel slaves were not to be slain, according to the order and command of the evil Pharoah.
When Allah Subhanah chose Prophet Musa (a.s.) as His Messenger to deliver Allahs Message to Pharoah and the Egyptians, Prophet Musa (a.s.) asked Allah Subhanah to support him with his brother Haroon (a.s.), and Allah Subhanah granted Prophet Musa (a.s.) his request.
Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 20 Surah Taha verses 25-36:
25 (Moses) said: "O my Lord! Expand me my breast;
26 Ease my task for me;
27 And remove the impediment from my speech.
28 So they may understand what I say:
29 And give me a Minister from my family
30 Haaroon, my brother;
31 Add to my strength through him
32 And make him share my task:
33 That we may celebrate Thy praise without stint
34 And remember Thee without stint:
35 For Thou art He that (ever) regardeth us."
36 (Allah) said: "Granted is thy prayer O Moses!"
The story of Prophet Musa (a.s.) and Prophet Haroon (a.s.) is written in explicit detail all over the Quran; their challenge of Pharoah and the Egyptian leaders in Pharoahs royal court, the victory of the Messengers of Allah with the magicians, the long period where Allah Subhanah sent various trials upon the Egyptians, the deliverance of the Bani Israel with Prophet Musa (a.s.) and Haroon (a.s.), the destruction of Pharoah and his armies, the receiving of the Divine Tablets, the worship of the golden calf by the Bani Israel, the refusal of Bani Israel to fight the people of Palestine, the 40 years of wandering of Bani Israel with their Prophets Musa (a.s.) and Haroon (a.s.)etc. The Quran gives reference to all the above incidents and happenings all over the Quran!
Prophet Haroon (a.s.) died before the death of Prophet Musa (a.s.), while they were wandering for 40 years with the Bani Israel in the Sinai Desert.
Ref: and other prophets which people dont kno much about.
The Glorious Quran is full of the historical and factual stories of the various Prophets of Allah Subhanah and their peoples. It would indeed require a book to write down the detailed story of each Prophet of Allah; but if you need any specific information about a particular Prophet of Allah, we would be only too pleased to relate that to you.
Your Question: could u also give me infomation on all 4 of the caliphs
Beloved brother in Islam, the lives of the four Rightly Guided Khalifahs Hadrat Abu Bakr as-Siddiq (r.a.), Hadrat Umar Al-Khattaab (r.a.), Hadrat Uthmaan ibn-Affaan (r.a.) and Hadrat Ali ibn Abu Talib (r.a.) are so varied and so full, that it would indeed require volumes of books to document their lives and their contribution to the Cause of Allah Subhanah and Islam. It would be indeed impossible for us to give you general information about these four of the noblest of the companions of the Messenger of Allah (saws) in this short article.
If you require particular information on any of the Rightly Guided Khalifahs, it would be an honor for us to provide you with that information.
Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allahs Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me. Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.
Your Brother in Islam,


The first week of the college football season was a good one, and it's especially fun when the festivities linger into Sunday and Monday thanks to a long holiday weekend. The Buckeyes took care of business against Oregon State, and while there may be some concerns on defense, Dwayne Haskins and the offense pretty much did whatever they wanted versus the Beavers.
Leading up to the week, the fine folks here at 11W put forth some prognostications for 10 of the week's top games. You can click below to take a peek back at those picks, but a few of the contests led to some incorrect submissions nearly across the board.
Congratulations to Dan Hope on being the resident Appalachian State expert. Everyone else had Penn State covering the 24-point spread, but it took overtime for the Nits to survive at home against the Mountaineers. Maryland's performance against Texas surprised all but two of our staffers as Tom Herman's off to a rough start for a second straight year.
There was a split opinion on the Michigan/Notre Dame game, and we all now know that things tragically didn't work out for Jim Harbaugh's anemic offense. The Florida State/Virginia Tech matchup was also split. I can't say I'm all that surprised that Virginia Tech won, but I don't think anyone expected Willie Taggart and the Seminole offense to be shut down like that on Monday night. Bud Foster's defense is a sight to behold at times.
- Quick reminder as to how this shindig works: Every week we will include 10 of the country's top games with a mix of Big Ten and national matchups. Each participating staff member will submit their picks – against the spread – for the selected slate of games. The odds will certainly fluctuate a bit throughout each week, but we'll be using sportsbook.ag for all betting lines.
There isn't near as much excitement on the board for the second week of the college football season, but the Big Ten is involved in two of the week's more intriguing matchups and the Buckeyes will look to tighten things up on defense against an inferior opponent.

The Wolverines check in as 27.5-point favorites against Western Michigan. Can you imagine the feeling in Ann Arbor if this one ends up being even remotely close? We'll see if Shea Patterson takes a step in the right direction against the Broncos. The staff is fairly split on how that ones turns out.
Kirby Smart and the Bulldogs head to South Carolina to take on a Gamecocks team that is coming off a nine-win season. This will be Will Muschamp's biggest game of the year and the home team is a 10-point underdog against the country's No. 3 team. That one can be seen at 3:30 p.m. on CBS.
The Hawkeyes and Cyclones gave us an unexpected shootout a season ago with the Kirk Ferentz besting Matt Campbell by a score of 44-41 in overtime. We're hardly expecting another shootout and Iowa is only a 3.5-point favorite at Kinnick. This will be the Cyclones' first game of the season after the bout with South Dakota State was canceled because of the inclement weather.
Can Texas A&M keep it close against Clemson? The Aggies are at home but Clemson's defensive line certainly isn't a welcome sight for Jimbo Fisher. A spread of 12.5 is fairly substantial when going on the road to face an SEC opponent, and the 11W staff is pretty split on how this one turns out.
Penn State and Michigan State both hit the road and both are looking to bounce back from lackluster performances. The Panthers have won two of the last three and if the Nits look like anything like they did against Appalachian State then it could be a long night at Heinz Field. Pittsburgh topped Albany 33-7 last weekend.

The Spartans are changing time zones and that can always be a concern. What does Herm Edwards have in store for Mark Dantonio? Sparty is favored by a touchdown but several pundits have this one pegged as the upset of the week after the Spartans struggled mightily against Utah State. Night owls can catch this contest Saturday at 10:50 p.m. ET.
What games are standing out to you? Who are your picks for week two?

Peak Spotting by Studio.NAND is an interactive application created for Deutsche Bahn, a railway company located in Berlin, Germany. It is a visual tool that allows Deutsche Bahn to manage their rail network by looking up to 100 days into the future. Specifically, tasks such as optimizing prices, train coordination, and providing better customer service. The program is run by machine learning algorithms that display data in an instant for the traffic managers. I think this application is interesting because it helps visualize and understand complicated issues, that might be hard for people to casually identify and resolve. The German rail network seems intricate and it can be easy for anyone to overlook details. One can see Studio.NAND’s artistic sensibilities from the simple design; the train routes, and the trains can be quickly checked.

"We have evidence of him responding," he said.
"No doctor, no biologist can keep a dead person alive for three months," Ali said, according to BBC News. "The body does not work without the brain."
"I'm a biologist, I know that. The body does not work without the brain," he repeated.
Pacholczyk said there could be merit to the father's claims.
"To the extent that these observations are a manifestation of upper brain coordinated functioning, the child cannot properly be declared 'dead' or 'deceased'," he said.
In January, high court Justice Nathalie Lieven had ruled that the boy's parents did not have an arguable case and doctors could cease the use of mechanical respiration.
Sir Andrew McFarlane, the most senior family court judge in England and Wales, said that Midrar no longer had a recognizable brain and there was no other conclusion to be reached other than to withdraw life support.
"The factual and medical evidence before was more than sufficient to justify the findings," McFarlane said.
Manchester University National Health Service Foundation said the boy's organs were deteriorating. He had never breathed independently. The foundation said continuing treatment was undignified and said the boy should be allowed a "kind and dignified death."
Lawyers for the foundation said three tests confirmed brain stem death.
Pacholczyk noted that the U.K. diagnostic focus on brain stem death differs from other medical standards around the world. He said "brain death, understood as the complete and irreversible loss of all integrated neurological function (including brain stem function) is a reliable way medical professionals can determine that a patient has died."

The parents' own attorney has noted that the diagnosis of death in the U.S., Canada, Australia and elsewhere is based on "whole brain death," and not "brain stem death."
The appellate court's Feb. 14 ruling cited the testimony of a doctor which said the key point about the U.K. diagnosis criteria is that "no patient has ever regained consciousness or awareness following brain stem death" and that when the brain stem dies it is "impossible for a patient to breathe unassisted."
Pacholczyk reflected on the standards of care in such cases.
"Brain-damaged individuals are deserving of full respect, and partake fully of human dignity, equally as individuals whose brains are not damaged," he said. "They deserve to receive reasonable ('proportionate') treatments as much as anyone else."
At the same time, it must be "carefully assessed" whether certain interventions were "extraordinary" in Midrar's case. Catholic ethics does not require extraordinary medical care.
"The question of whether he eventually will, or maybe already has stabilized in his condition, such that only minor additional treatments beyond the ventilator will be required, will also be important to assess carefully," Pacholczyk said ahead of news that the boy's ventilator was disconnected.

For the first time in almost six years, the Iowa Central football team is ranked.
The Tritons entered the NJCAA Top-20 at No. 17 in the first regular season poll. Iowa Central (1-1 overall, 0-1 in ICCAC) travels to Coffeyville this Saturday in Kansas.
Back on Oct. 9, 2012 the Tritons were ranked 16th before falling out the following week. They enjoyed a two-week run that season in the polls.
East Mississippi, the defending national champions, remained first followed by Iowa Western, which scored a 26-20 victory over Iowa Central last week at home.
Snow moved up one spot to third with Northeastern Oklahoma A&M and Northwest Mississippi rounding out the Top-5.
Arizona Western dropped six spots to No. 9 after a loss, with Blinn climbing five positions to sixth and Navarro moving up eight spots to 10th.
Hutchinson entered the poll at No. 11 after besting Independence last Saturday. The Pirates, who are currently being filmed for a second time on the Netflix program “Last Chance U,” fell from fifth to 13th.
Along with Iowa Central and Hutchinson, Highland, Scottsdale and Mesa also are ranked for the first time this season.
The Tritons opened their year with a victory over then-No. 13 Butler. They still have games with seventh-ranked Garden City, Hutchinson, Independence and No. 18 Highland on the schedule this season.
Coffeyville (1-1) received five points towards the Top-20 this past week.
Triton volleyball ranked 11th
The Iowa Central volleyball team dropped two spots in the latest poll, as they are now ranked 11th.
Over the weekend, the Tritons (7-3 overall) faced off against defending national champion and top-ranked Coffeyville at the Highland Tournament in Kansas, along with matches vs. Highland, Neosho and No. 20 Northeastern Oklahoma A&M.
Iowa Central faced off against Southwestern Wednesday night and will head to Minnesota Friday. They return to Hodges Fieldhouse next Wednesday to host 19th-rated Hawkeye at 7 p.m.
Parkland is second with Cowley, Grand Rapids and Des Moines Area rounding out the Top-5. Kirkwood is also ranked, entering the poll at No. 12.

A perfect voyage once again, with the bonus of two seats to myself!
The service was excellent: early morning departure and entitlement to a banana and a muffin. The plane was like new, and the welcome on the ground and onboard was very nice, especially considering you're leaving Australia and don't know whether you'll be returning.
I of course recommend this airline!

The researched by the UK’s University of Warwick provides the first evidence that plants have evolved ways to control embryo growth. They do this by emitting information from surrounding cells.
The international study, headed by Dr Jose Gutierrez-Marcos from Warwick’s School of Life Sciences, revealed that female sex cells and the placenta-like endosperm contained within plant seeds send out specific signals to developing embryos to help direct their growth.
“This new information fundamentally changes our understanding of plant development and opens up exciting avenues of research, which could allow for the breeding and propagation of plants that incorporate the most successful characteristics of existing species”, said Dr Gutierrez-Marcos.
"With rising global populations and changing climates, there is an increasing need for more robust plant varieties that provide higher yields and can grow under a wide set of environmental conditions. By understanding how plants control embryo growth we have opened up the possibility of breeding a new generation of plants that potentially meet these requirements."
Plant embryos are found within seeds and, once germinated, give rise to the adult plant. It was previously thought that embryo development was determined by the genetic make-up of the embryo alone.
The new research has however shown that specific cell-types present in the embryo environment can send out protein signals to also influence this process.
This situation mirrors a similar scenario in mammals, whereby embryo development is regulated by signals sent out by neighbouring placental cells.
Understanding how these cells of non-embryonic origin can influence developing plant embryos, the researchers argue, is key to creating new, improved plant species including advantageous hybrid crops, where at present embryos often fail to develop properly when distantly-related parents are used.
"Before our discovery, the ability of non-embryonic plant cells to direct embryo growth was unrecognised, but we now have valuable information that neighbouring cells can directly interact with and influence embryos, most likely via a cascade of protein signals. The next step is to identify the embryonic factors that respond to these non-embryonic signals and understand their mode of action" commented Dr Gutierrez-Marcos.

From the Sentinel:
Early last week, Rebecca Viehman could have been found buzzing around the office at Monroe Elementary School.
Although the school year had only just begun, Viehman was already busy checking mail, beginning work on fundraisers and organizing Club Tuesday, an after-school program she started last year that is run by the school’s teachers and supported by the PTO.
“I am here every day,” Viehman said.
But, she’s not a teacher or a staff member.
Viehman is the school’s PTO president.
Like any PTO (Parent Teacher Organization), Monroe’s is made of officers and committees who, with the help of parent volunteers, raise funds and sponsor school events, provide input to the school and support students and teachers to bridge the gap between home and school.
“It forms a partnership between home and school. Parents learn (the program),” said Bill Creps, principal of Monroe Elementary School. “It creates a bridge between us and them.”
About two years ago, the PTO at LeTort Elementary School in the Carlisle Area School District was nearly defunct, current president Jessica Case said. She attributes the decline to a high turnover of principals and a somewhat transient school population, she said.
But, “this year, it is alive and thriving,” she said.
The LeTort PTO sponsors Family Fun Nights, a May Fair, bingo nights and skating parties. It now has a steady group of about 10 parents who attend the monthly meetings, and Case has started adding extra meetings, like a meet-and-greet event for new parents held over a recent weekend.
“I think for the faculty, it improves the teacher morale. I think that teachers want to know that parents care,” Case said. “I think kids learn more when parents care.”
LeTort is always looking for a greater pool of volunteers to give time or donations, Case said.
“(Our volunteers) are probably on the low side, compared to what we could get,” Beth Snyder, PTO member at Plainfield Elementary School, said.
In October, Plainfield hosts an Open House to give parents the opportunity to volunteer at the PTO’s different events, such as a Breakfast with Santa or the spring book fair, Snyder said. The number of volunteers varies, and some parents participate in more than one event, Snyder said.
“I think a lot of people are busy,” said Alisa Closs, one of the treasurers of the Parent Advisory Council (PAC) at Wilson Middle School. “You don’t have to attend every meeting. You can attend when you can and volunteer when you want to volunteer.”
Although Viehman would like to see more people attend the PTO’s monthly meetings, Monroe Elementary School is fully staffed with volunteers for each PTO event, she said. Monroe’s PTO uses what Viehman calls a “two-hour power sheet;” parents make a two-hour pledge and commit to two hours a school year, she explained.

TV review: National Theatre – 50 Years on Stage
I wasn’t at the National Theatre last Saturday when it celebrated its 50th anniversary. As it happens, I caught it instead on BBC iPlayer on my laptop – proof of how theatrical performance no longer has to exist entirely in the moment of its creation, but can live on at a moment entirely of our choosing.
And this collection of momentous plays and players that have been seen at the NT, from the Old Vic to the South Bank, provided a riveting snapshot, if a necessarily selective one, of 50 years of theatre history.
As Nicholas Hytner observed in one of the pre-recorded video introductions to scenes: “We’ve got two hours to show the vast range of work the National has done over the last 50 years by staging scenes from some of the most memorable shows – there are more than 800 to choose from.”
In the event, Hytner chose to represent around 25 of them live, with a handful more from video archives. These included glimpses of Laurence Olivier, Joan Plowright – including footage recorded just a few weeks ago on the stage of the Old Vic, where she first played Joan of Arc 50 years ago and returned to now – Paul Scofield in Amadeus and Nigel Hawthorne in Hytner’s own production of Alan Bennett’s The Madness of George III.
Bennett was further represented by a reunion of some of the original cast of The History Boys, including James Corden and a bearded Dominic Cooper, rather incongruously still playing a schoolboy, with Bennett himself standing in for the late Richard Griffiths as schoolmaster Hector.
Many of the NT’s most memorable plays were recreated at times by the members of their original casts – Judi Dench was again a sublime Desiree Armfelt in A Little Night Music, declaring that she was “losing my timing, this late in my career” but proving when it comes to timing, no one has it like she has and Corden, again doing hilarious battle with himself in a scene from One Man, Two Guvnors.
At other times, we had what could have been tantalising auditions to play the roles in future revivals. If ever David Hare and Howard Brenton’s Pravda is to be revived, Ralph Fiennes surely has the role of South African press baron Lambert Le Roux in the bag.
Purely from an organisational point of view, it was an astonishing achievement, seamlessly moving between scenes with sets and lighting, and showing the versatility of actors such as Alex Jennings, who switched from playing Professor Higgins in My Fair Lady to George W Bush in Stuff Happens.
But it was also difficult to dispel the impression, at least on TV, that it was a bit like an endless awards show, with snippets of scenes that were never quite satisfyingly whole.
It has also been cogently argued that women playwrights were shockingly under-represented – just one in the entire show, while Hare and Bennett each had three works performed. But this was otherwise a genuine and heartfelt love-fest to a beloved institution.

text: Hello, my name is Azyah Fair. I am in the class of 2025 currently attending Newark School of Global Studies in Newark, New Jersey. I attend Newark School of Global Studies in order to pursue learning Mandarin. At the moment, I am in an after school club named “Stand and Deliver.” Stand and Deliver helps build the confidence in order to stand in front of others and say, or, act whatever it is we may be delivering. It also gives us a great opportunity to earn a scholarship for participating in the club. Writing is something that interests me because it allows me to ease whatever may roam in my mind and put it on paper, which then allows me to touch others. I also have an interest in musical theater. Musical theater forces me to push past my comfort zone. Musical theater is also a distraction from the world’s outside issues. I believe that expression through art is a great experience.

Have you ever wondered why Popeye never used bananas, or watermelon, or broccoli…he always used spinach in his worse and best moments. Here are the 7 health benefits of spinach, but first, let’s check the nutrition facts:
Spinach is always recommended for hair, skin and bone health because of its nutrients. In only 30 g of spinach there can be found: 7 calories, 0.1 g fat, 0.7 g dietary fiber, 0.1 g sugar, and almost 1 g of protein. Being rich in vitamins, almost 56% of them go to Vitamin A, then, Vitamin C 14 %, and Vitamin B-6 5%. From the minerals spectrum, 3 % goes to Calcium, 4 % to Iron, 6 % to Magnesium. As one of the richest vegetables in Potassium, in 30 g of spinach there can be found 167 mg Potassium, and 24 mg Sodium.
Knowing those nutrition facts, here is why spinach is one of the healthiest foods in the world:
- For those fighting diabetes, the alpha- lipoic acid contained in the spinach is very important. This antioxidant has proven positive reaction to oxidative stress- induced changes in the human body especially in patients with diabetes. On the other hand, the alpha- lipoic acid is proven in keeping the glucose levels low, providing increased insulin sensitivity and decreased autonomic neuropathy or peripheral neuropathy.
- When grilling foods on high temperature, they generate heterocyclic amines with cancerogenic properties. Spinach, as one of those green super foods that contain chlorophyll, is highly effective at blocking these effects. So, there is no mistake if we classify spinach as one of the super cancer fighting foods.
- New researches show that people that consume foods high in beta- carotene are with low risk of asthma attacks. Like carrots, pumpkin, broccoli, apricots and cantaloupe, spinach can also be a good source for asthma prevention.
- Rich in Potassium and poor in Sodium, spinach is a great protector for your cardiovascular health. The balance of these two elements is very important for maintaining a healthy blood pressure level. For instance, Potassium is important for negating the effects of Sodium. So, a high Sodium intake may be just as big of a risk factor as a low Potassium intake. The right way for you to be sure that you are on a right path in your healthy diet, you need to accelerate the dosage of Potassium- That is how you will provide a normal blood pressure level, important for maintaining a good cardiovascular health. Protect your heart from hypertension and keep your arteries as young as possible. For, you are as young as your blood vessels are.
- The combination of Vitamins and Minerals in the spinach can improve your bone health. Bone fractures are always connected to low intakes in Vitamin K and the inability of the body to absorb Calcium. So, implementing spinach in your healthy diet will make your bones and teeth more powerful than ever. Make sure you never lack Magnesium or Calcium especially when on a high- density training.
- Because of the high fiber levels, spinach is a great cure for constipation. It is also rich in water, so keep your spinach meals regular to keep your bowel movement regular. Don’t get upset of the greenish color of the stool, sometimes green stool means your digestive tract works properly, especially after a good spinach meal.
- Spinach can help you in maintaining a healthy hair and skin. Because of the rich Vitamin A and C levels, spinach can advance the sebum production which is most important for skin moisturizing. This vitamin combination is ideal for building collagen that provides hair and skin structure. And if you want to avoid hair loss, eat high Iron foods, like spinach!

Childhood teaches cook healthful habits
SAN ANTONIO — As a farmer's daughter, Cynthia Green was reared around fresh fruits and vegetables.
“We grew a lot of our own food,” she said. “My parents wouldn't buy a whole lot at the grocery store.”
Green grew up in the rural area of Pep, helping her father and mother tend the family's farm with her eight siblings. Every year, they collected what they grew for their own table, processing it by freezing it or canning it — “however it tasted better,” Green said.
Cynthia said this lifestyle helped her acquire healthful eating habits.
“We definitely ate well,” she said. “I learned to eat balanced meals with a lot of vegetables. We always ate vegetables.”
She also learned how to cook.
Know a great cook?
Tell us about a wonderful cook we should feature in our series, Great Texas Cooks. The only requirement is that the nominee lives in the area. Give us details about what makes her, his or your cooking so special. If you want, include one or two signature recipes. Email email@example.com or write to Karen Haram, Food Editor, San Antonio Express-News, P.O. Box 2171, San Antonio, TX 78297-2171.
“We grew up out in the middle of nowhere in a very poor family,” Green said. “Cooking was an absolute necessity. We were in the kitchen working and helping my mom cook from the time we could hold a spoon.”
As they got older, Green and her siblings took turns cooking meals for the family. Green still remembers her first attempt.
“The first time I said I was going to cook dinner for everybody, I went in the kitchen and warmed up wieners and put one wiener on a plate for everybody,” she said. “I would venture to guess I was probably younger than 8.”
Green said her childhood helped cultivate her love of food.
“I always knew I wanted to do something with food,” Green said. “In high school, all the other kids would always tease me because I love to eat ... . I was a serious chowhound.
“When we would cook in home economics classes, I was always the one who wanted to cook something totally different than what they wanted us to do.”
After leaving home, Green continued pursuing her culinary passion, wanting a career that allowed her to work with food.
“That's when I finally decided I wanted to be a dietitian,” she said. “I still deal with food all the time but from a different perspective. Teaching people how to eat right was always a lot more appealing to me.”
Green graduated from Stephen F. Austin State University with a degree in nutrition in 1996, and went on to acquire her dietary license. She now lives in Harwood and works for the Women, Infants and Children (WIC) program of the Community Health Centers of South Central Texas, working mostly with pregnant women and young families, advising them on how to eat.
“I also do nutrition counseling one day a week for the clinic,” she said. “I do a lot of counseling with diabetics, people with weight problems and people with cholesterol issues.”
Green said her work has made her appreciate what she learned growing up.
“It set my habits,” she said. “Kids learn to eat right or to not eat right at a really young age so when you grow up eating that way it makes a huge difference in how you eat for the rest of your life.”
One of the biggest problems she sees is a lack of fresh produce in people's diets, since many feel it's too expensive to eat healthfully.
“I hear that every day,” she said. “I typically will tell people to change what they're spending their money on and spend less money on non-nutritious foods and drinks. If they stop buying sodas and so much meat, they could spend that money that they save on fruits and vegetables.”
Green, who recommends eating a serving of vegetables with every meal, cooks with as much fresh produce as possible and even keeps her own garden.
“I try to grow things I know my family will eat but I also try to grow things that I've never tried before and different varieties of things just to venture out into new territory,” she said.
She particularly likes to cook vegetable soups and dishes that feature asparagus and broccoli. Whatever she's preparing, her family knows that vegetables are always on the menu.
“My husband loves it,” she said. “Sometimes my 8-year-old son doesn't, but I always make sure to keep vegetables he likes around.”
Joyce Krenmueller, Green's mother-in-law, said she's eaten healthier since her daughter-in-law joined the family.
“She's an excellent cook,” she said. “She does very attractive, nutritious meals. Since she started cooking for us, we've cut back on the macaroni and cheese and potatoes.”
Patty Mundine, a neighbor and friend of Green's, loves going over to Green's house for dinner.
“Basically I love to cook, too, but I have learned a lot from her over the years,” Mundine said. “I have learned a lot of about spices and using a variety of foods from her. I've never had a bad meal at her house.”
Green said she likes to experiment with food and find new recipes.
“As I've aged, it seems like most of my cooking skills come from reading magazines, watching cooking shows and experimenting from what I see in those arenas,” she said. “I look for recipes that sound like they taste great.”
Green likes to customize the recipes she uses.
“I sort of follow recipes,” she said. “I'll follow the basic steps and then I'll usually change a few things. Very seldom do I follow a recipe to the T. Usually I'm like, 'That looks good, but it needs this or this.'”
Green continues to learn from her family as well.
“When we get together, there's always food involved, and most of my sisters are really good cooks,” she said. “I guess they each kind of have unique capabilities with what they cook and how they cook so I still learn from them.”

(You're allowed to bring your own poems, if you'd like, but you're not required.) I've always had a great time at these kinds of events, especially if it's a beautiful day.
Like before, all these events are free and open to the public, so make sure you stop by for some of them.

Galatasaray’s goalkeeper Fernando Muslera, who beat Fenerbahçe 1-0 on the road in the Super League, said that they had a good preparation period for the victory.
“I PROMOTE MY FAMILY AND MY MOTHER”
Speaking to the publisher with a t-shirt with a photo of her mother who passed away in September 2020, Muslera said: “We worked hard. We won last year, we won again. I present the win to my family and first of all to my mother.” said.
“WE WANT TO FIGHT AS OWN THE BALL”
Emphasizing that they, as Galatasaray, they struggle with a ball-possession understanding, Muslera said, “We always try to do this no matter where we play, on the road or inside. Our teacher advises this. Today, there was a Galatasaray who had control of the ball for 90 minutes. When you hold the ball, you run your opponent. During the week, we tried the balls that Fenerbahçe threw behind the defender. Fenerbahçe did this in the first half, but we took precautions. Today the key word was to play and we came to play. We got a good win like last season. “
“THANK YOU AND MY FRIENDS”
To the question about how he regained his old form after his long-term injury, Muslera said, “I attribute this completely to work. I started small work 4 days after the operation. Thank you to my teacher. He allowed me to go to Uruguay and work with my family. My friends are here. The support they have given me since the first minute of my arrival has made me show this performance quickly. ” answered.

Pomegranate peel (Punica granatum L.) versusـ Juice: Properties and Benefits
Eman Hasan Ismail Amar
ايمان حسن إسماعيل اعمر
The presence of antioxidants and polyphenols in pomegranate peels and juice has been linked to several medical benefits. In the juice, you'll find vitamins and minerals. It is possible to understand the pomegranate's features and benefits, which are beneficial for treating a variety of disorders, by using various extracts (alcoholic extract and ethyl acetate). To develop treatments for diverse ailments, this study is crucial. In this study, the pomegranate peel was extracted using the Soxhlet extraction apparatus, which was able to essentially remove all of the active compounds from this plant. The Folin-Ciocalteu test was used to measure the total phenolic content (TPC) of pomegranate peel extracts and juice. All tests were performed using a UV-Visible spectrophotometer. Pomegranate juice and peel were shown to have antioxidant capabilities and high phenolic content. While the total phenolic content (TPC) of pomegranate peel extracted with ethanol 99% produced a result of (78.81mg/g) higher than that of pomegranate peel extracted with, ethanol 35% which is (74.94mg/g) and ethyl acetate (56.61 mg/g) and juice(23.88 mg/g), where the total flavonoids content (TFC) ended with a result of pomegranate extract with ethanol 35% (18.09 mg/g) higher than the extracted with ethanol 99% (7.95 mg/g) and pomegranate juice (0.0547 mg/g). HPLC analysis of polyphenolic standards compounds and flavonoids was detected and identified by comparing the peaks retention times in the sample chromatogram of pomegranate peel (extracted using ethanol) with that of the standard. After conducting the HPLC analysis, the results showed, Rutin and Gallic acid By scavenging free radicals with the DPPH method, the antioxidant activity (AA) of pomegranate peel extracts was identified. Pomegranate peel was extracted using ethanol 99.9% and ethanol 35% as a solvent, yielding results of (51.9 mg/g), (9.86 mg/g), and juice (16.79 mg/g), as opposed to (76.8 mg/g) when ethyl acetate was used as the solvent. The extracts from peel pomegranate (extracted using ethanol 99.9%) antibacterial activity were determined in vitro using the agar disc diffusion method The existence vii of positive control. the result showed antibacterial activities against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), Staphylococcus aureus and the juice does not have a direct effect on the bacteria, as the bacteria appeared diluted. The anti-glycation formation of the end product was assessed using an in vitro glucose-bovine serum albumin (BSA) test. The results of the study showed that pomegranate peel extract with ethanol has an anti-glycation effect, whereas pomegranate juice has less of it. The cream was made based on pomegranate peel extracted using ethanol and had several features, including moisturizing, and smoothing, has a pleasant scent, absorption rapidly (without leaving a film), does not irritate the skin (pH= 5.5-6), has excellent color, easily distributed on the skin The enzyme HMG-CoA(3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A) reductase is essential for the mevalonate pathway that produces cholesterol. The liver produces less cholesterol when HMG-CoA reductase is present. Pomegranate peel (extracted with 99.9% ethanol) had a 45% inhibitory effect, and pomegranate juice had a 74% inhibitory effect.
