The heart this story breaks, might be your own."Roxanne Gay, "The Nation" Like any word whose shimmer has dulled from overuse, Paris can seem like a cliche in itself. She knows how to drown the reader in a sense of enchantment She writes exquisite moments The power of this excellent novel is in how Engel holds us in her thrall as she complicates where Lita is going and what she will leave behind.

As Cato and Lita retreat to their own world, they soon find it difficult to keep the outside world from closing in on theirs.

Then Lita meets Cato, and the contours of her world shift. ![]() Cautious and guarded, Lita keeps a cool distance from the other girls, who seem at once boldly adult and impulsively naïve, who both intimidate and fascinate her.

If you feel your Wi-Fi signal might be suffering from some issues, then any of these apps can help you solve them. Transfer Files over Wi-Fi: Now that you have improved your Wi-Fi, here’s how you can make the most of it by transferring files from your iPhone to Mac or PC. This information will help you determine if interference from other networks is behind any Wi-Fi signal issue you might have. The app also displays the type of security that each signal uses, its speed and more. It shows on your Mac the channel by which each Wi-Fi signal within range goes through, letting you know which is the channel with less ‘traffic’. WiFi Explorer for Mac ($14.99) does just that. If you have a counter capable of emitting a 5 GHz signal, then changing to that frequency can greatly improve your signal reception. The reason behind this is that most old routers emit their signal in the same frequency, 2.4 GHz. Interference can cause some serious dips your Wi-Fi’s performance regardless of how strong it is, and few things can interfere with a Wi-Fi signal as much as other Wi-Fi signals. Good Wi-Fi reception is not all about raw signal strength though. You do have to carry your Mac around for the app to do its job though, so its usability is limited to portable computers. With this information, the app draws the overall signal ‘map’ or helps determine the best place to locate your Wi-Fi router. On the Mac side of things, there is NetSpot, a better, more capable app targeted at professionals (but that also provides a free version) that lets you read the signal strength at home. And if you combine Network Multimeter with a blueprint of your house and you write down the different values the app provides, you will be able to create an incredibly accurate ‘map’ of your home’s Wi-Fi signal strength. What makes this app stand out from similar ones is that it provides a constant indication of the surrounding Wi-Fi signal, which makes its reading much more accurate and reliable. With it, you can move around home or any other place that provides a Wi-Fi signal and the app will read and display the signal strength just like those classic battery or electricity meters you can find in most garages. Thankfully, Network Multimeter ($0.99) is an app designed just for that. That’s a lot easier said than done though. The best way to improve your Wi-Fi signal at home is (of course) getting to where the signal is strongest. Let’s take a look at three very useful apps that you can have on your Mac or on your iOS device that can help you monitor every detail of your Wi-Fi signal for optimal performance. ![]() ![]() Da ciò emerge un’inedita teoria dell’arte – che sviluppa idee di Tolstoj, Vjačeslav Ivanov e Freud – e una produzione in versi contraddistinta da ardite innovazioni metriche e da una poetica del flusso di coscienza con un urbanismo velatamente umoristico che ricorda autori come Apollinaire e Cendrars. Questo libro si pone dunque come primo studio sistematico della poesia di Aksenov, partendo da una riflessione sullo stato filologico dei testi, per passare alla ricostruzione del suo pensiero estetico e ad analisi integrali dei componimenti poetici. tali indagini denotano una scarsa conoscenza dell’autore, che non mancò di dichiarare l’inconciliabilità tra i due media artistici. I pochi studiosi che ne hanno notato la grande originalità interpretano i suoi versi soprattutto come applicazione di principî di pittura cubista in poesia, alla luce delle esperienze di Majakovskij & Co. ![]() Ivan Aksenov è una delle figure più neglette della letteratura russa di inizio Novecento. This study aims to presents and analyses this reasons and to offer an overview of the phenomenon, using different researches published on this subject an providing examples and case studies, like the situation from Bistriţa-Năsăud County, were some important documents on this subject were already published by historians as Nicolae Iorga or Virgil Şotropa. Starting from the XVIth century, the migration from Transylvania to Moldavian became bigger, and it is caused by economic, political, social and religious reasons. It also exist a similar phenomenon in the three Principates, Transylvania, Wallachia and Moldavia, where princes or reach people from one of them have sometimes domains in other country. This phenomenon can be seen at the Romanian people starting from the Middle Age, when in Poland, Russia, Czech Republic, Moravia, Bohemia, Serbia or Bulgaria, there can be seen communities formed by Romanians. In this research, the author investigates the phenomenon of migration from Transylvania to Moldavia during the XVIth, the XVIIth and the XVIIIth centuries. Literate and a good diplomat, he had an extensive correspondence with Prince Michael Apaffi of Transylvania who, in the spring of 1676, awarded him the diploma of noble of Transylvania, text which I have reproduced at full length in the appendix. Having lived in the second half of the 17th century, Lupaşcu could not enjoy for long the benefits of the duties he had been invested with early in his youth nor the tranquillity of his mansion in Cepleniţa, since the duty and friendship for his brother-in-law, Prince Gheorghe Duca, forced him to move to Wallachia together with his family, where he activated until the end of 1678, when he passed away. The aim of the present study is to reconstruct, based on documents, the life and work of one of the members of this illustrious family – Lupaşcu Buhuş. Many contemporary sources still keep alive the memory of this family’s representatives, wealthy, influential, and skilled diplomats as well as brave and good Christians. Key words: emigration, family, law, Moldova, street children, streetification JEL Classification: I31, J12, J13īuhuş family was undoubtedly one of the oldest and noblest families in Moldavia, whose social and political climax was reached and maintained throughout the entire 17th century. Also, there are shown some future prospects of this phenomenon and potential directions for enhancing the situation in this area. ![]() In this paper, after delving in a very brief history of “street children” phenomenon, the main legislative acts related to street children of Moldova are analyzed and current situation described. Thanks to coordinated efforts of state institutions the number of street children by 2012 reduced significantly, but after optimization measures in state institutions that were related to protection of these children’s rights the problem resurfaced. Losing jobs and future employment perspectives, poverty, dissolution of families, emigration were only some of the causes that were the “building bricks” of the “street children” phenomenon. Its origins stems from 1990s after the fall of the USSR, when Moldova became an independent country and began reconstructing its economy. Abstract A current pressing issue in Republic of Moldova, especially in the urban area is the phenomenon called “street children”. ![]() If you cannot download it from the emulator, you need to download APK files.

However, none of the clients Vice talked to said they felt pressured or coerced into sex, and one said Joyner wears protection when she insists. However, California defense attorney Jonathan Kelman told Vice that isn’t actually a loophole, and if a client were to reach out to authorities, he could potentially be charged with prostitution. Rose feels that in a tantric healing session, intercourse is “almost always never needed-particularly for healing purposes.” And Yin questioned Joyner’s belief that condoms “block energy.” She called this “shady” and “ridiculous,” adding, “Having sex with clients in the world of tantra is more of an anomaly than the norm.”Īs far as the legality of his practice goes, Joyner told Vice that he’s OK as long as he doesn’t charge clients for their first session. When Vice spoke to Moksha Tantra Center founder Matthias Rose and tantra life coach Kaya Kwan Yin, both seemed less than OK with Joyner’s methods. The man who wore the Barney costume, David Joyner, has the tantric sex business. Joyner told the site that the best way to arrive at a “higher and more blissful state of awareness” is to engage in penetrative, unprotected sex. Though the clients Vice spoke to seemed into Joyner's healing practices, his methodology is not exactly everyone’s cup of tea. Also on the menu: cosmic, mind-blowing orgasms.” Joyner explained to Vice, “When the lingam and the yoni meet, there’s a certain energy that takes place that hands on the body alone cannot create.”ĭoes this mean intercourse can be part of the session if the client is on board? To quote one of the songs in Barney's repertoire, B-I-N-G-O. The cost includes “a ritual bath, chakra balancing, and a massage. Now, it's no accident that I've been spreading ‘I love you’ all around the world.”įor $350, a client gets a session with Joyner that lasts three to four hours, Vice reports. Because tantra deals with loving energy, life force energy, and energy that rises through your system. He told the site, “And a lot of times when people think about tantra they think it's all about sex. In a 2017 interview with Business Insider, Joyner mentioned that he's been studying tantra since he was 19 years old. As Vice reported, he's had his practice since 2004, and his tantra journey began many years before that. Joyner has been following this tradition of spiritual intimacy for a long time. The man inside the Barney costume is David Joyner. In a new profile by Vice, the former star of Barney & Friends talks about the tantric sex practice he runs, and uh, needless to say, this job is vastly different from the one he had at PBS. And now, the man who played Barney is a tantra massage specialist and spiritual healer. and of course Barney's head doesn't turn because it's all once piece so you have to portray emotion coming from this character as you're talking and then also wanting to show different gestures and mannerisms that's not gonna take the character out of character, because Barney still has certain nuances.ĭespite these conditions, he explained that he did enjoy playing Barney.From 1991 to 2001, David Joyner was arguably the most famous purple dinosaur since Dino on The Flintstones.
