If you would like to be kept up to date with the upcoming lists, please subscribe to my newsletter by clicking this link. I don’t send out letters too often, pretty much once a month when this list goes out… and occasionally if I release a book or something. As always, this is not a comprehensive list, but only includes all the books I have heard about so far. If you have a fantasy novel you are self publishing in June or beyond, let me know by filling out THIS FORM, and I shall add it to the page. There are but 3 requirements: 1) It must be a self published fantasy novel. 2) It must have a Goodreads page. 3) It must have a cover. -- 1st June – The Pyres of Vengeance (Swords of Dominion #2) by N.C.

She wins an ally in Marcus Diophantus, a pickpocket turned soldier turned general, who hopes to turn into something more than just her champion. Together, they broker peace between Florence and its enemy. If Marcus is going to help Claire, he’ll have to survive. Peace has upset the balance of power in the capital city. The king stands increasingly alone against: the Constantines, a commercial enterprise as much as a clan, who aim to profit from peace as they have from war – the warrior nobles, descended from the founders of Florence and quick to turn against a weak throne – and Reburrus, the high priest of Florence, convinced Claire answers to hostile foreign gods. As the city comes to a boil, Claire and Marcus – and Marcus’s formidable army – will have to decide where their allegiance lies. Claire becomes a reluctant participant in a savage campaign.

The service is atrocious, the proprietor a grouch. The regulars are silent, brooding, and unfriendly to newcomers. There is no set menu, alternating with the whim and whimsy of the owner.

2023.06.07 11:21 Xano2113 The Terms "Light Side" And "Dark Side" Are Misleading And Should Be Done Away With Altogether In Star Wars
In the original and prequel trilogies the term "Light Side" was never mentioned, only the "Dark Side". This is because George Lucas originally intended for the "Dark Side" to be a corruption of the Force and the "Light Side" to be the true force.
I would argue that the terms "Light Side" and "Dark Side" are incredibly misleading because it can make one think of two equal and opposite forces like Yin and Yang. The thing is that Yin and Yang are supposed to be opposite yet complimentary forces that must be in balance for harmony. The "Dark Side" is not the Yin to the "Light Side's" Yang, in fact its very nature seeks to upset the balance.
This can be seen with the Mortis Arc in the Clone Wars show with the Son representing the "Dark Side", the Daughter representing the "Light Side" with the Father trying to maintain balance between them. This is one example of how expanded media has misinterpreted the force since the "Dark Side" itself is supposed to be a cancer and must be destroyed for there to be balance not an equal force that needs to exist just as much as the "Light Side".
I feel as if the names had been changed then there wouldn't be such misconceptions. Like calling the "Dark Side" the "Corruption" since that way people would stop thinking of it in a Yin-Yang situation.

2023.06.07 11:20 InternalOptimism Was told something very beautiful about India today.
Was on a call with a senior research professor at a reputed institute. I had e-mailed him because I wanted to ask him something related to climate change and economics, that's a story for another time. In the midst of our conversation, I asked sir, if India could bear the brunt of climate change?
His response was beautiful.
"Bharat, the nation and culture, has always suffered. We suffered through drought, through heat, through invasion and through pandemic. Yet, eras later, we still stand. We've maintained a balance between us and nature. Bharat is beloved by nature and nature is beloved by Bharat.
Even after toiling in 45 degree heat, a labourer goes back to his home and cares for his daughter who shows him the wooden doll she played with him throughout the day. That is Bharat. We suffer, we fall and yet we remain optimistic and rise.
Be assured, when Bharat drops blood, Bharat also heal it's wounds. When tough times arrive, Bharat has and will find a way."
I felt so good to hear this.

2023.06.07 11:18 Loose_Track2315 Worst part of being a sex repulsed ace is the desperation
Been trying to date for the last couple of months bc I thought I should give it a good effort for a while. I've had one relationship with someone I was friends with before that, but it was very unhealthy and they cheated on me a lot.
And, god. I'm arospec so I thought this wouldn't affect me too much. But I met another ace who initially showed a lot of interest and I fell fast and hard, discovering that I'm greyromantic in the process. Also discovered that I'm demi too bc they're my first sexual attraction.
The issue? They are FAR more casual about our connection than I am now. I won't go into details bc it's a lot but they just very likely don't have the time or commitment that I would need, plus they're just nonchalant and avoidant. So I feel like my soul has been totally laid bare in front of someone who doesn't care and it's crushing. I'm seriously considering stopping and not trying to date again after this mess if it ends up being totally unsalvageable, bc even tho I've discovered that I'm demi, I still don't know if I would ever decide to have sex. Or risk this type of situation again.
The worst part of it all is the desperation bc I have so very few chances. I feel pathetic for getting so worked up over it, but at the same time I know it's only natural. I know I've hidden it from the person pretty well, but my mind is just a total dumpster fire right now. I think I could probably EVENTUALLY find someone who's a good enough match, but it is very likely not worth my mental health being absolutely decimated every time.
I thought I was coming to terms with being sex repulsed but it feels like this reversed all of the hard work I put in to start feeling comfortable with myself.

2023.06.07 11:17 Joe_Ligma420 Fuck it, *worst* ending for every squadmate
Aka the post that will guarantee I go to hell
TL;DR List of Deaths at the end
--ME1--
Surprisingly, this run begins with a fairly normal playthrough, minus one small hook.
Garrus- The small hook in question, leave him on the Citadel.
Wrex- Get his family armor, this will make sense later
Tali- Get the geth data for her, again will make sense later
Liara- Recruit her after Virmire
Make sure to romance the human option for your Shep
Important choices: Don't do any side content other than the personal missions I listed, Kill the Rachni Queen, spare the Asari on Virmire, kill the Council, kill all the colonists on Zhu's hope, don't save Kirrahe
--ME2--
Now this is where the fun begins
Firstly, cheat on the VS, preferably with Jack or Tali if you're Mshep, any option is fine for Femshep
Upgrades- Armor only, no shields or cannon
Jacob's Loyalty- don't do
Miranda's Loyalty- do, but side with Jack in their argument
Zaeed's Loyalty- do after SM, choose Paragon route, leave Zaeed to die
Kasumi's loyalty- Do, either choice is fine
Mordin's loyalty- Do, choose to destroy Maelon's data
Garrus' loyalty- Do, don't let him kill Sidonis
Jack's loyalty- do, manipulate her into killing Aresh.
Grunt's loyalty- don't do, in fact, leave him in the tank until just before the SM
Tali's loyalty- do, incite the crowd or choose the persuade/intimidate option, resolve her argument with Legion either fairly or in her favor (if you resolve it in her favor, remember to apologize to Legion later to regain his loyalty)
Samara's loyalty- do, choose Samara
Thane's loyalty- do, but fail the tailing
Legion's Loyalty- Do, Rewrite the Heretics
I originally wanted to sell Legion, but him not being present lead to the death of either Mordin or Tali during the hold the line segment, and come on, their tragic deaths in 3 are much worse than selling Legion.
Unlike other "max casualties" runs, you do NOT have to wait 3 missions before the suicide mission, but me wanting some characters to survive means I don't need death at every opportunity, and the crew can just die of no escort instead.
--Suicide Mission--
Bring Kasumi and Tali with you to fight the Oculus, Thane and Garrus will die.
(Any ME2 death is the worst ending for Thane, Garrus will die because the cannons failed, imagine not getting hired by Shepard after asking, and then 2 years later when they do bring you on board you die thinking you failed at your job)
(You MUST bring Kasumi and Tali, or else they'll die here instead.)
Send Kasumi to the Vents, choose Miranda as the First Fireteam Leader
(Kasumi dies doing the job she was likely brought on to do in the first place, and Miranda may begin to question her skillset.)
At this point all the crew except Chakwas will have become alien Gatorade, but Chakwas still needs to get to the Normandy. Send no one.
(There really wasn't anyone who's worst ending lied in dying here, except Grunt, but he needs to be the Second Fireteam Leader or someone else may die in a "non-worst" way.)
But we still need a Biotic Specialist, choose Miranda. For your two squadmates, bring Jacob and either Mordin or Tali.
(Jacob, Miranda's closest friend on the team, will die because of her own failure.)
Send Grunt out as the Second Fireteam Leader. He was made to be the perfect soldier, I'm sure he'll make it out fine, right..?
(Wrong! This death was tied with Crew Escort for worst, but for reasons I specified already on Crew Escort, I chose this one.)
At this point, your survivors will be:
Miranda (1 point), Zaeed (3 points) Mordin (1 point), Jack (1 point), Tali (1 point), Samara (2 points), Legion (4 Points)
This is a crew with an astronomically low hold the line score, so here's what we do:
First of all, BRING MIRANDA. This is her only opportunity to die in ME2, and her death in ME3 is far from her worst (dying saving her sister).
That leaves one of the loyal 1 pointers as our second option, the average of 4, 3, 2, 1, and 1 is 2.2, meaning no one left behind will die.
So, for your squad, bring Miranda and anyone I listed as being worth 1 point.
After the suicide mission, do Zaeed's Loyalty, and get him killed through the Paragon route.
Important choices: Be a dick to the Virmire Survivor, Destroy the Collector Base, make sure you have low materials (easily done by running out of fuel repeatedly), don't do any side quests
--ME3--
This is where all the ME1/2 survivors get killed off.
Mordin- Sabotage the Genophage, shoot him
(He regretted making the Genophage, when he went to undo his regret, he was shot dead by his own commander.)
Wrex- Will automatically die after Priority: The Citadel 2, due to how Mordin died.
(While this death takes longer, I don't think I need to examine why it's worse)
Virmire Survivor- Neither Thane nor Kirrahe will be around to save the Salarian councilor, and you've been a dick to them these last 2 games, once you meet them in the Cerberus Coup, shoot them dead.
(Shot by their ex-lover who also cheated on them.)
Jack- Don't do Grissom Academy
(Jack grew up being abused by Cerberus, then they're saved by Shep, who then manipulates them in the very place they were abused before, and then Shepard consciously decides to ignore saving the place where Jack happens to be stationed, leaving them to be kidnapped by Cerberus and letting the abuse come to an end through brainwash.)
Tali- Side with the Geth
(While this death already sucks, what's even worse is you had Tali's back up until now, helping her with her Pilgrimage and siding with her during an argument on the Normandy, so seeing you suddenly switch up must be even worse on her. Even even worse if you don't take the Paragon interrupt to at least try and stop her suicide.)
Samara- Let her shoot herself, then kill her last daughter immediately afterwards
(Don't think I have to explain why this one is terrible)
Legion- Always dies in 3
(Again, wanted to sell him, but couldn't)
James & Liara- Low EMS final run
(This is as much their worst death as it is their only death.)
Now, that leaves us with the ending, while renegade control is the worst overall imo, this is about making life suck for squadmates, not making life suck for everyone, so we choose destroy to check Edi off the list.
Final Deaths: 18
VIrmire Casualty (Swarmed by Geth)
Virmire Survivor (Shot by Shepard)
Jacob (Failed Biotic Specialist)
Miranda (Crushed by Debris in Collector Base)
Zaeed (Betrayed During Loyalty)

 | submitted by kdblossomhospital to u/kdblossomhospital [link] [comments] https://preview.redd.it/hubhibyhck4b1.png?width=800&format=png&auto=webp&s=cdb09878448669fe2a42d213322376f39bfba56f For successful fertilization of a woman’s egg by a man’s sperm, the head of the sperm must first attach to the outer layer of the egg, followed by its penetration through the outer layer into the inner cytoplasm where fertilization occurs. However, certain factors may impede this process, such as a thick or impenetrable outer layer of the egg or the inability of the sperm to swim effectively. When traditional methods of fertilization are not successful, a specialized procedure called Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) can be used in combination with in vitro fertilization (IVF) to increase the chances of fertilizing the egg. In ICSI, a single sperm is directly injected into the cytoplasm of the egg to assist in the fertilization process. Ready to take the next step towards parenthood? Look no further than KD Blossom, the premier IVF center in Gujarat. Our state-of-the-art facilities, experienced medical professionals, and personalized care ensure the highest chance of success in your journey to conceive. Don’t wait any longer. Schedule your consultation today and let us help make your dreams of parenthood a reality. What is Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI)?Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) is a specialized technique used in assisted reproductive technology (ART) to aid in the fertilization of an egg by a sperm. ICSI is typically used in conjunction with In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) when there are issues with the ability of the sperm to penetrate the outer layer of the egg, such as low sperm count, poor sperm motility, or abnormal sperm shape. During ICSI, a single sperm is selected and directly injected into the cytoplasm of the egg using a fine needle. This process bypasses the natural process of the sperm penetrating the outer layer of the egg and allows for direct fertilization to occur. Once fertilization occurs, the resulting embryo is transferred to the uterus for implantation and further development. ICSI is a highly effective method of achieving fertilization and is often used when other forms of ART have failed. However, as with all medical procedures, ICSI carries some risks and potential complications, which should be discussed thoroughly with a medical professional prior to undergoing the procedure. Experience the best chance of success in IVF - Contact KD Blossom today for top-notch ICSI services!What does Intracytoplasmic mean?The term, Intracytoplasmic (pronounced IN-truh-sahy-tuh-PLAZ-mik) refers to the location where the sperm is injected during the ICSI procedure - inside the cytoplasm of the egg. The cytoplasm is a gel-like substance located in the centre of the egg that contains various molecules, water, and salts. Choose KD Blossom for successful IVF treatment in Ahmedabad and start your journey to parenthood today!How is ICSI different from IVF?In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) is a method of assisted reproductive technology (ART) where an egg is fertilized by sperm outside of the body in a laboratory setting. With traditional IVF, a large number of sperm are placed near an egg in a laboratory dish, and the fertilization process occurs through the natural penetration of the sperm into the egg. However, the chance of successful fertilization is left up to chance. In contrast, Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) is a specialized form of IVF that involves the direct injection of a single sperm into an egg, promoting the fertilization process. Although ICSI provides a more controlled method of fertilization, it is still not a guarantee that fertilization will occur. After fertilization, the resulting embryo is then transferred to the uterus, where pregnancy can occur if the embryo successfully implants in the uterine lining. Both traditional IVF and ICSI can be used in this process.What is Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART)?Assisted reproductive technology (ART) refers to medical procedures or techniques used to help people achieve pregnancy when they have difficulty conceiving on their own. ART involves the manipulation of eggs, sperm, or embryos outside of the body in a laboratory setting to facilitate fertilization, implantation, and ultimately, pregnancy. Some common ART procedures refer to In Vitro Fertilization (IVF), Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI), Gamete Intrafallopian Transfer (GIFT), and Zygote Intrafallopian Transfer (ZIFT). These procedures can be helpful for individuals or couples struggling with infertility, same-sex couples, and individuals who wish to preserve their fertility for future use.Can ICSI affect a baby’s development?Studies have shown that babies born as a result of Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) do not have a significantly higher risk of birth defects or developmental delays compared to babies born through traditional IVF or natural conception. However, it is important to note that certain factors can increase the risk of developmental issues in any pregnancy, including prematurity, low birth weight, and genetic disorders. It is also important for parents to discuss any potential risks and concerns with their healthcare provider and seek regular prenatal care to ensure the health of both the mother and baby throughout the pregnancy.If you or your partner are experiencing difficulty in conceiving, your healthcare provider may suggest the use of Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI), which is a type of In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) commonly used in cases of male infertility. ICSI involves several stages, including egg stimulation and retrieval, sperm collection, embryo creation in a laboratory, and embryo transfer. It is important to have a conversation with your healthcare provider to determine whether ICSI is the appropriate fertility treatment for your specific situation. If you also are experiencing infertility and looking for IVF or ICSI Treatment, then must get in touch with KD Blossom as we are known as one of the best IVF centers in Ahmedabad. Do get in touch with us today. This Blog Originally Posted Here: https://kdblossom.co.in/blogs/intracytoplasmic-sperm-injection.html |
2023.06.07 11:17 throwraFrequentRow2 I just can’t feel attracted to any men on the dating apps and it’s seriously worrying me now
Don’t feel anything for anyone on dating apps
I think I’m probably just picky
Not to sound vain but I’m an attractive woman and often see men’s heads turn when I go out anywhere. I get approached a lot but it’s never by men I’m attracted to
I’m on the dating apps and I swipe and swipe and I don’t find anyone who sparks physical atttaction. My ex was the only person that did that, but not from his dating app pictures and only when I had looked him up on Google and I found his YouTube channel, when I watched his videos and him talking is when I felt attraction
So I feel nothing to a picture and I’m wondering if that’s normal. I also feel very attracted to men that I see in public but they always have girlfriends. I just feel nothing to the men on dating apps and it’s scaring me as I felt so much for my ex, I don’t want him to be the last person
I also can go from finding a lot of men attractive to non at all. Can hormones do that
I really like men with long hair and beards but there are non on the dating apps in my area. Ugh I miss the feelings I had for my ex. He wasn’t British too, I can’t feel attracted to a pale British man, every man I’ve ever liked has been a handsome person from Australia, South Africa or New Zealand. I’d only have to look at my ex and I felt very turned on
How do I find someone my type I’m worried. I hear my housemates having sex and it makes me feel so jealous as me and my ex had a great sex life, but he dumped me out of the blue

2023.06.07 11:16 NightCities13 88 Years Later-Game 10-Reapings and Train
Quell
President Zenia Heavensbee stood in front of the camera with a box in her hands. She opened the box and removed an envelope. Slitting the sealing on the envelope, she pulled out a slip of paper.
She read aloud the quell terms. “In order to reward the mayors for their great service, they will be selecting the two tributes who will possibly become their victors.”
Many in the Capitol were excited for this quell, with many surmising that potential grudges could take place in the form of mayors taking revenge on their enemies by reaping their children.
District 11
Pedro Romular (Game 9 victor) stood next to the bowl, but would not be performing the reapings this year. Mayor Lillian Cantrell walked up to the staircase, and descended the stairs. She walked into the crowd of females, many of whom looked scared.
She stepped into the fifteen year old sector, and grabbed the hand of a young lady with dark skin and braids. She selected the girl, and as both walked up to the stage, the girl burst into tears. The young girl introduced herself as Rosetta Ross, and Mayor Cantrell admitted to choosing the girl due to having a dispute with her mother, who she angrily stated had stolen the man that she loved.
Mayor Cantrell then walked up the stairs again, passing Rosetta’s brother, much to his relief, and chose seventeen year old Chayote Findley. As the ebony skinned boy walked to the stage, a braided ponytail of hair flowing behind him, Mayor Cantrell admitted that Chayote had rejected her daughter’s advances.
Booing was then heard from the crowd, as Rosetta and Chayote were taken into the town hall for family visits.
Rosetta was visited by her parents and younger brother, Sedge. She cried in her father’s arms, who angrily spoke of his hate for Mayor Cantrell, as his wife had died six years ago, and her grudge should have ended by now. Rosetta was then taken to the train.
Chayote was visited by his twin sister Alocasia, and younger brother Agave. He promised to return, and to prove Mayor Cantrell wrong.
Once on the train, Rosetta and Chayote met their mentor, the now 22 year old Terra Pruitt, who tearfully hugged both of them, apologizing for their reaping. Terra taught Rosetta and Chayote how to throw knives.
Once they arrived at the apartment, they were informed that the parade would not occur for quells. The next afternoon, Terra turned on the television to show District 2’s reaping.
District 2
Grudges were not seen at District 2’s reaping, where Mayor Demetrius Dalton instead selected training academy attendees.
He selected seventeen year old Fabiana Coleman for the female tribute, and a pretty young lady with golden hair and blue eyes walked to the stage, and shook Mayor Dalton’s hand, excitement shown on her face. Fabiana was known for being best with a spear.
In a surprise move, Mayor Dalton selected one of his own sons, eighteen year old Decimus Dalton, to be tribute. A young man with ebony skin and a dark afro of hair walked to the stage, hugging his father and thanking him. Decimus was known for his amazing sword skills.
Fabiana was visited by her parents and younger brother Claudius. She promised to bring the family glory, before being taken to the train.
Decimus was visited by his father, and two older brothers, Leviticus and Nicodemus. Decimus promised to return and bring District 2 glory.
Once on the train, Fabiana met her mentor, the now 27 year old Horus Greenstaff. He worked with her one on one, and helped her improve her spear skills,
Meanwhile 21 year old Atticus Cross worked with Decimus on his sword skills, and seemed impressed with Decimus’s overall brutality.
Once at the apartment, Atticus turned on the television to show District 10’s reaping, claiming that it’s tributes had made it into the top ten a lot during the past ten years.
District 10
As Pedro Romular had won the previous year, District 10 would be the last to be reaped, per custom in the new era.
Mayor Randall Stonewall was known for his hatred of Pedro, and this year’s reaping was based solely off of that.
First Mayor Stonewall selected Pedro’s fiancée and mother of his two children, eighteen year old Hermosa Lopez. A hateful look crossed Pedro’s face as a young lady with bobbed curly caramel hair and hazel eyes walked to the stage. Hermosa’s notably refused to share Mayor Stonewall’s hand.
Mayor Stonewall then selected Pedro’s brother in law, eighteen year old Juan Torres. A tall, muscular young man with olive skin and dark curls of hair walked to the stage, and also refused to shake Mayor Stonewall’s hand. Juan was married to Pedro’s sister Patricia, who was now seven months pregnant with a daughter, their first child.
As Hermosa and Juan were taken into the town hall, Pedro walked up to Mayor Stonewall, stabbing him in the stomach with a kitchen knife multiple times. The crowd began to cheer for Pedro, and the peacekeeper forces notably just stood there, as Pedro was good friends with all of them. Pedro was never punished for his actions, as President Zenia Heavensbee refused to allow him to be arrested, claimed that she felt sympathy for him.
Mayor Stonewall bled to death on the stage, and his body was taken for burial afterwards.
Pedro arrived in the town hall to visit his fiancée and brother in law, and told his sister that her husband Juan’s reaping had been avenged. His other sister Rosalina promised to watch Buster and Silvia, until Hermosa and Juan returned, as both were parents and could be revived.
Pedro escorted Hermosa and Juan to the train, and taught both how to use a machete, and informed them that they had to kill whoever it took in order to return.
Once at the apartment, Pedro showed them both his Games, and gave them advice for a variety of arenas.

Once at the apartment, Atticus turned on the television to show District 10’s reaping, claiming that it’s tributes had made it into the top ten a lot during the past ten years.
District 10
As Pedro Romular had won the previous year, District 10 would be the last to be reaped, per custom in the new era.
Mayor Randall Stonewall was known for his hatred of Pedro, and this year’s reaping was based solely off of that.
First Mayor Stonewall selected Pedro’s fiancée and mother of his two children, eighteen year old Hermosa Lopez. A hateful look crossed Pedro’s face as a young lady with bobbed curly caramel hair and hazel eyes walked to the stage. Hermosa’s notably refused to share Mayor Stonewall’s hand.
Mayor Stonewall then selected Pedro’s brother in law, eighteen year old Juan Torres. A tall, muscular young man with olive skin and dark curls of hair walked to the stage, and also refused to shake Mayor Stonewall’s hand. Juan was married to Pedro’s sister Patricia, who was now seven months pregnant with a daughter, their first child.
As Hermosa and Juan were taken into the town hall, Pedro walked up to Mayor Stonewall, stabbing him in the stomach with a kitchen knife multiple times. The crowd began to cheer for Pedro, and the peacekeeper forces notably just stood there, as Pedro was good friends with all of them. Pedro was never punished for his actions, as President Zenia Heavensbee refused to allow him to be arrested, claimed that she felt sympathy for him.
Mayor Stonewall bled to death on the stage, and his body was taken for burial afterwards.
Pedro arrived in the town hall to visit his fiancée and brother in law, and told his sister that her husband Juan’s reaping had been avenged. His other sister Rosalina promised to watch Buster and Silvia, until Hermosa and Juan returned, as both were parents and could be revived.
Pedro escorted Hermosa and Juan to the train, and taught both how to use a machete, and informed them that they had to kill whoever it took in order to return.
Once at the apartment, Pedro showed them both his Games, and gave them advice for a variety of arenas.
2023.06.07 11:15 lumbercrap My girlfriend(16f) is not beinf paid by her father whom she works with can she report him for unpaid labor?
So basically to sum it all up my girlfriend turns 17 in october and has been working with her dad for years but he continues to not pay her. She works for him usually every day and she is supposed to be getting paid but he seems to think that because she is his daughter he doesnt need to pay her. At this point he owed my girlfriend over $1000 because he pays her a couple hundred every so often when she begs him to actually pay her. So im just wondering if there is any way she could report her father and get him to be forced to pay her or if she is just fucked because her parents are both abusive pieces of shit. Thank you for any and all help in advance.

2023.06.07 11:14 suzebob Agressive husbands of Residuary beneficiaries
My firm has been appointed as executors in the Will of a deceased client. 2 of his daughters are the residuary beneficiaries. Their husbands are extremely agressive and are demanding a lot of information in a very angry shouty call and follow up letter “which you should not charge for providing because you are too slow” and asking questions in the following manner “probate only takes 10 weeks, why don’t you have the grant” . I expected the senior partners to endorse cutting the husbands off because they are not beneficiaries and have been extremely rude - but instead they suggested getting permission to speak to them from the beneficiaries and side stepped the whole attitude problem aspect. I have quite a lot of freedom as to how to run my files (ie very little interest from partners). So I want to give a firm but polite reply but I am not quite sure how to pitch my response to the family. Ultimately they are not the clients - they are not entitled to a blow by blow update on the file as requested. Probate is going in this week, 4 months after death so not at all late and I want to say I will not tolerate threatening behaviour. I’ve never had to do it before - anyone dealt with something similar successfully?

2023.06.07 11:12 Omaha-Media-Group Stay Ahead of the Game with 2023 Omaha SEO Trends
 | Omaha Search Engine Optimization is a dynamic field that calls for adaptability. As 2023 approaches, it will be crucial to monitor the developments that will shape the future of search engine optimization. Companies of all sizes, from those well-established with websites to those just starting started, would do well to observe industry trends. Mobile optimization, local search, visual search, and voice search are among the Omaha SEO trends that will be discussed in this article. Relax with a cup of coffee as we discuss how to remain ahead of the curve in one of the most dynamic cities in the United States. submitted by Omaha-Media-Group to u/Omaha-Media-Group [link] [comments] Relax with a cup of coffee while we discuss how to remain ahead of the curve in one of the United States' most dynamic cities. Voice Search's Explosive GrowthAccording to SEO Experts in Omaha, voice search is expected to explode in 2018. In order to keep up with the growing prevalence of smart speakers and digital assistants, business owners must increasingly consider optimizing their content for voice search.Unlike more conventional text-based queries, voice searches are conversational and more precise. Voice search users are typically searching for answers to very specific questions; therefore, businesses must provide instantaneous results. If you want your website to rank higher in voice searches, you should provide content that addresses frequently asked concerns in your industry. Due to the rise of voice-activated mobile search, you must optimize your website for mobile use. Therefore, it is essential to prioritize long-tail keywords over brief ones. By using structured data encoding, you can improve your site's chances of being selected as a Google-featured snippet. If businesses want to keep up with the rapidly changing digital environment, they must prioritize enhancing their SEO strategies with voice-search-friendly tactics. Tendencies within Search Engine OptimizationEven just a few years ago, search engine optimization (SEO) strategies may not have been as effective as they are today. Traditional SEO techniques, such as keyword cramming and link exchanges, are becoming increasingly ineffective in the current competitive online environment.This decline may be caused by the increasing complexity of search engine algorithms. They are now able to identify businesses employing ineffective and antiquated methods. As a result, websites employing these techniques may experience a drop in search engine rankings or even disappear entirely from search engine results. Similarly significant is the development of voice-enabled search engines. As more individuals utilize voice-activated search assistants such as Siri and Alexa, websites that rely on keyword targeting are losing ground. Instead, websites should prioritize providing answers to frequently asked queries in a conversational tone. If a company wishes to achieve SEO success, it must attentively monitor trends and adjust its strategy accordingly. Consequently, it is essential to invest time and effort in content creation, link building (especially through natural means), and mobile/voice search optimization. In this way, businesses can simultaneously expand their online presence and serve their core customers. Expanding Search Engine Optimization for Mobile DevicesNow that so many people use their mobile devices to browse the Internet, it is essential to optimize websites for mobile access. Your website must be optimized for mobile search as the number of people using mobile devices to access the internet continues to rise.For mobile-friendly SEO, page launch time is crucial. Page load time for mobile devices is a factor in Google's ranking algorithm because users have come to expect prompt responses. The loading time of a mobile page can be reduced by compressing images and eliminating unnecessary code. Responsive web design is another important aspect of mobile SEO. It is crucial, therefore, that your website appears great on a wide variety of screen sizes. Thanks to a responsive design, customers can view identical content on their mobile devices, tablets, and desktop computers. In recent years, the importance of indexing for mobile device optimization has also grown. When determining a site's search engine rankings, Google now prioritizes a site's mobile version over its desktop version. Improving a website's efficacy on mobile devices should be a top priority for any business that wishes to maintain a competitive advantage. You must optimize for mobile SEO if you want to be discovered by individuals using mobile devices to search for goods and services. Why Local SEO Is So EssentialLocal search engine optimization should be a top priority for any company seeking to attract more local customers. Utilizing mobile devices and voice search has made local searches increasingly significant for both consumers and businesses.Best Omaha SEO Companies allow businesses to zero in on specific regions, which is one of its primary advantages. By emphasizing its products and services, a company's website may rise in the search engine rankings for related localized keyword queries. By increasing a company's visibility in local search results and online directories such as Google Maps, local SEO aids in the expansion of its online presence. Thus, potential customers can swiftly and easily locate a business's contact information (including address, phone number, business hours, and reviews). People and search engines will respect and trust you more if you use the same information across all of your online profiles. If Google believes that your website is trustworthy, it is because it contains exceptional content. Spending time and effort on Local SEO in the Omaha region raises your company's visibility among people actively pursuing the products or services you offer. ConclusionThe optimization of websites for search engines is a rapidly evolving industry. In the future years, Omaha and the surrounding area will likely experience a number of the aforementioned changes. As a business proprietor or marketer, staying abreast of these changes is crucial to ensuring that your SEO strategies remain effective. |
2023.06.07 11:11 Bradycakes Anyone with experience in or planning on keeping the gender secret?
I'm 12+2 today and we had our blood draw appointment for NIPT screening this morning. It's illegal here in Germany to communicate the sex prior to 14 weeks, and our understanding when reading up on the particular test we're doing is that they wouldn't do any sex screening on tests that were carried out prior to 14 weeks. Well we were wrong, and we made a quick decision to include the test this morning.
I'm not quite sure how I feel about knowing though 😄😄😄😄 I've no doubt that I want to know in advance, but I hadn't anticipated finding out so soon, I assumed it would be at the 20 week scan. And I quite like the idea of keeping the redult to ourselves, at least initially, as my husband and I hate the idea of "team pink" and "team blue" and are a bit worried we might end up with a tonne of no doubt cute, but possibly very gendered clothes and toys as gifts.
Realistically though, I don't know how well I can keep it secret. If someone asks me a direct question, I have to answer honestly 😄 I wasn't planning on telling people we were even doing NIPT screening, until I was asked directly, and wouldn't or couldn't lie or redirect the question. Plus, what if I slip up? I think my parents would actually prefer not to know. I'd hate if they accidentally found out because I blurt out "we bought his baby phone today" or something!
What are everyone else's thoughts? Any second time parents with experience?

2023.06.07 11:11 Valley_On_Fire Can I drink on my prescriptions?
Age: 28
Sex: Male
Height: 5'11"
Weight: 270lbs
Race: Caucasian
Duration of complaint: About 5 paragraphs.
Location: Canada
Any existing relevant medical issues: Anxiety, depression, ADHD.
Current medications: Escitalopram 20mg, Wellbutrin 300mg, Dexedrine 10mg, Propranolol 10mg
Hey docs,
So I unfortunately suffer from major anxiety and depression, and I have ADHD. A fun mix.
My doctor has me on 20mg of Escitalopram and 300mg of Wellbutrin for the anxiety/depression, and 10mg of Dexedrine for the ADHD. All once a day. I also have a bottle of 10mg Propranolol that I only take if I'm having an anxiety attack (which has been rare seemingly due to the other meds).
I used to only be on 10mg of Escitalopram, it wasn't til this year that the dosage went up and the other meds were added.
While I was on 10mg of Escitalopram I drank all the time. Got a pretty nasty concussion in December of 2022 and the effects of that made drinking not fun anymore (long story), and so I've been sober since January.
Now, Summer is rolling around and I have a lot of fun stuff lined up, and I'd love to be able to partake in some drinking, but I need to know if it's safe? I never felt any adverse effects when I was drinking on Escitalopram.
Would love some help, thanks!
P.S. does this bundle of Prescriptions that I'm on make sense? As a non doctor with no earthly idea, I'd love to know. Cause maybe my doc is screwing me up more? Or maybe they're really helping.
Either way, thanks again!

2023.06.07 11:11 WorldWandererStuck Urgent - Plan B
I'm very desperate for some advice on whether Plan B will work/seems to be working for me.
I had my LMP 22 May. I am usually regular, give or take a few days. My last LMP was around 31 days.
I unprotected sex Sunday 4th June at 5pm.
I had ovulation mucus on Monday 5th June at 9am. I usually get this quite a lot around the time of ovulation, but it completely stopped after I took Plan B.
I took Plan B on Monday 5th June at 12.30pm.
I had cramping - some quite bad - Tuesday 6th June.
I have had various cramps since, far less than a period, but similar pain if that makes sense.
What are the chances Plan B won't work for me? Does the cramping I had mean it's likely to have worked to have worked?
I am desperate and so so so worried right now. I have stopped eating completely in the hopes that it will mean my body will be too preoccupied with hunger to implant, which I know is so silly.
I have had an abortion before and can't have one again. I am not ready, financially or emotionally, for a baby. I am driving myself sick with worry.
Please help.

2023.06.07 11:07 jellyfishjester Seeking Advice: Dealing with an Inconsiderate Roommate in a Special Living Arrangement
I find myself in a challenging situation and I'm in need of some advice. I've been renting a place from a longstanding family friend and living with their daughter, making it a unique living arrangement. On the surface, everything seemed great: affordable rent, the ability to have my beloved dog with me, and the comfort of living among familiar faces. However, living with my roommate has become increasingly difficult due to her lack of consideration and respect for shared spaces and boundaries.
While I can handle the standard challenges that come with having a roommate, such as cleaning and housemate dynamics, my roommate's behavior has become more intrusive and disrespectful over time. For instance, she neglects her cleaning responsibilities, leaving dirty dishes lying around for days. But it doesn't end there. Recently, she started helping herself to my alcohol, including spirits that I kept in the kitchen. To avoid further misuse, I had to resort to hiding them in my room. She even takes my dirty dishes out of the dishwasher that I just loaded, replacing them with her own, and runs the dishwasher without my items in the cycle. This lack of respect for shared resources and personal boundaries is taking a toll on me.
Moreover, she plays loud music during the day, which becomes particularly disruptive as I work from home. To make matters worse, I've started hearing her engaging in private activities at all hours, without any regard for noise levels or privacy. She also keeps her adult toys out in the open in her bedroom, with the door wide open for anyone to see. The constant disregard for boundaries and consideration is wearing me down, and I'm finding it increasingly difficult to live in this environment.
I've finally decided that it's time to look for alternative living arrangements. However, as many of you know, finding a suitable place to call home can be a lengthy and challenging process. Despite the difficulties, I have a meet and greet scheduled tomorrow with a potential new housemate at a different place. It's the first time in a long while that I've felt excited about something.
The new place has a great location and the potential housemate seems like a good match. However, the rent is significantly higher than what I'm currently paying. While it would be a stretch for my budget, I believe I could make it work. I feel that a fresh start in a new environment would rejuvenate me and allow me to work more comfortably from home.
With all that being said, I would greatly appreciate any advice or insights you all might have for me. Have any of you faced similar challenges with roommates? How did you handle it? Should I take the leap and pursue the new living arrangement, even though it's beyond what I initially planned to spend? I'm open to hearing your thoughts and suggestions.
Thank you in advance for your help!

2023.06.07 11:07 simplyel Diary of a Teenage Girl: Chloe
TW: Purity culture, SA, drugs
Did anyone else read the books by Melody Carlson? I know I read the Caitlin books but I owned and devoured a Chloe ones.
I've pushed them from my mind but in therapy lately I've been working through my deconstruction. I was all alone in my process, long before I knew there were communities. So now I've been talking through my beliefs and worldview, and trying to process how I learned concepts and how that affected me later in life.
I know I read each of those books multiple times. I remember Laura stole Allie's Ritalin as an upper and broke down on stage. I remember Chloe's little brother having sex, getting married, then getting the marriage annulled because they hadn't consummated the marriage. I remember Chloe at 17 making out backstage with the 21 year old from the other band and how guilty and awful she felt about it. I remember Caitlin and Josh kissed dating goodbye.
Purity culture has been a bitch to deconstruct intentionally, a decade after walking away. Realizing how guilty I felt about my own SA because I deserved it according to twenty years of teaching.
I'm mostly thinking out loud. But I'm wondering if anyone else has processed through these books?
