Human violence

People are less violent than ever, two authors argue. They just can’t agree why

Books and artsOct 8th 2011 edition

The Better Angels of our Nature: Why Violence Has Declined. By Steven Pinker. Viking; 802 pages; $40. Published in Britain as “The Better Angels of our Nature: The Decline of Violence in History and Its Causes” by Allen Lane; £30 Buy from,

A History of Violence: From the End of the Middle Ages to the Present. By Robert Muchembled. Polity; 388 pages; £60. To be published in America in January; $29.95 Buy from,

FIRST the good news—people are much nicer than they used to be and they are becoming steadily less violent. This is the thesis of Steven Pinker's absorbing and detailed survey of human behaviour that goes right back to early Christendom. His work is based on two arguments. The first is that the past was far more unpleasant than it was thought to be, whereas the present is altogether more peaceable, contrary to what many believe.

An evolutionary psychologist who works on cognition and language at Harvard, Professor Pinker writes like a modern Whig. He is a devout believer in the idea that history is progress, and has chosen to call his book “The Better Angels of our Nature”, in homage to Abraham Lincoln's first inaugural address exactly 150 years ago.

Each big step of human civilisation, Professor Pinker says, has stripped away a layer of violence, whether it is the tendency of nomadic tribes to settle in one place, and to want to be more secure, or the civilising mission of the state, which sought a monopoly on aggression and weaponry. Murder rates in England peaked in 1300 and in New England in the late 17th century. Afterwards both fell dramatically.

Exceptions are often more interesting than the rule here. In the cities of north-east America, the Midwest and Virginia, blacks and whites killed at the same rate in the first half of the 19th century. But African-American homicide rose from three times the white rate in New York in the 1850s to almost 13 times that figure a century later. It was not all progress.

Still, wars, rather than street violence or crime, account for the lion's share of violent deaths across history. Three particular kinds of conflict account for that: civil war, the killing of ethnic and political groups and, now, terrorism. Here Professor Pinker includes enough evidence of wickedness and brutality to remind readers that the worst angels of our nature are grimly inventive creatures indeed.

Yet killings in conflict, the curse of humanity since the ancient world, have been in marked decline in the past two decades. Professor Pinker calls this development the “New Peace”. He is fond of graphs and the accumulated data is compelling. Deaths due to state-based conflicts show jagged peaks in the two world wars, followed by a bumpy but consistent trailing-off. The 20th century, with its trio of premier-league killers, Hitler, Stalin and Mao, stands out for the sheer scale of the destruction of human life. Technology, in the form of Zyklon B and cheap transport, enabled dictators to dispatch their victims en masse to distant killing fields. But these mass killings ran counter to a general trend of pacification.

Professor Pinker had a choice of ongoing conflicts while he worked on his book: in Iraq, Afghanistan, Sri Lanka and Sudan. Even so, there was an “astoundingly low rate of battle deaths: around 0.5 per 100,000 combatants per year” in the first decade of this century. The main reason for this is the decline in interstate wars since 1945. There were 1m battle deaths during the four years of the Korean war in the early 1950s and 1.6m during the nine years of the Vietnam war the following decade. These casualties bring a different perspective to the first Gulf war (23,000 battle deaths in 1990-91) and the conflict between Ethiopia and Eritrea (50,000 over three years, 1998-2000).

On civilians, Professor Pinker's case is more patchy. The updated figure of 112,000 civilian deaths in Iraq (according to the Iraq Body Count, a respected non-government organisation) defies the observation that wars have become safer for non-combatants. In Congo the decade-long conflict that ended in 2008 resulted in 5.4m deaths, most of them only indirectly attributable to fighting. But Congo is important; it heads a miserable category described as “nonstate conflict”, a mêlée of warlords, ethnic rivals, mafias and militias, all fighting out in a failed state. Civilian mortality in this kind of struggle is a reminder that a decline in recorded battle fatalities does not automatically mean an advance in peace.

But what is the lesson of this generally benign assessment? Immanuel Kant's famous “triangle” of factors—open economies, democracy and engagement with the outside world—are still the prerequisites for reliable peace. Professor Pinker (unfashionably) praises United Nations peacekeeping. It makes it harder for the bellicose to start wars and helps nip some resurgent conflicts in the bud before they can spark off yet more carnage. Aspiring to bourgeois prosperity and free trade is also important; people are less inclined to kill those with whom they can do business.

Professor Pinker ends with a treatise on brain science, a fluent home run for a psychologist-turned-historian. Neuro-plasticity, the human brain's ability to change in response to experience, means that people are less likely to resort to violence in their daily lives than their forebears; other behavioural strategies work better. That may not have been quite what Lincoln meant, though the belief in man's improvability is as uplifting in this magisterial work as it was in the president's speech.

The notion that mankind has, as Ian Dury, a punk-rocker, once put it, “reasons to be cheerful”, also lies at the heart of Robert Muchembled's quirkier work, “A History of Violence”. A French social historian who not long ago published a study entitled “Orgasm and the West”, here he turns his attention from sex to violence, with the bold claim that between 1650 and 1960 the aggressive instinct was “truly tamed in Europe”. Apart from all the wars, that is.

He makes some obvious points along the way, such as: “Territory and sexuality are the main determinants of identity.” That is the conclusion of some intriguing material, though. For example, Erasmus's “On Good Manners for Boys”, dating back to 1530, became popular again among the middle classes in the 17th century as new cities in Europe required rural migrants to learn the ways of crowded streets.

Mr Muchembled makes one speculative claim worthy of a French intellectual: that popular fiction, from “The Three Musketeers” to crime novels, has provided young men with a way to indulge violent fantasies, while not doing too much harm. Mr Muchembled's scholarship is less detailed than Professor Pinker's and the examples he chooses are often odder and more partial, but the basic thesis that violence is declining in civil society is similar.

Sporadic eruptions in the banlieues of Paris pose a challenge on his doorstep. With no wars or national service on which to vent their aggression, today's urban gangs are, Mr Muchembled concludes, “heirs to ancient traditions…[of] brutal youthful impulses”. Not even the optimistic Professor Pinker could find much to be cheerful about in that.

 Rump shakers small - Anal vibrators | Review by mrsheatherreese

Rump shakers small - sex toy by Doc Johnson - review by Tessa Taboo

Vibrating anal plug by

Add resource

I Wrote This Review While Using the Toy.

A great starter butt plug for those new to the experiences of anal play and those that are unsure about how it will feel. Maximum pleasure for a great price.
Strong vibrations, great size for starters, great for solo use, smooth.
Won't stay in during vigorous movement, slight funky smell, too small for advanced users.
Rating by reviewer:
extremely useful review

The Rump Shaker by Doc Johnson is a small vibrating rubber butt plug. This would be a perfect plug for beginners. It stimulates the back door area with gentle vibrations. It would be great for solo use or during couples play. I don't recommend wearing it out of the house, as it tends to slip out slowly if I even walk across the room. The nice thing about it being small and not as bulbous as other plugs is that it makes for very gentle, smooth penetration and thrusting.

    What areas on the body can this product be used / what areas does it stimulate best?
    • Anal

Material / Texture

It is made out of rubber and is very smooth. You can use silicone or water based lubes with rubber, but it is very porous; so to make it last longer, it is recommended that you use a condom or toy cover with each use. There was a slight sweet smell upon opening the package, but it was nothing off-putting. There isn't much of a texture to speak of, which, in the case of this toy, is probably better. It is slightly flexible, but not flimsy by any means.
    • Smooth

Design / Shape / Size

When we got this toy, it was an introductory to anal play with toys, for us. It's small, and the vibration really helped with easing the awkward feeling. We bought it to put in and leave in during sex, but due to the small size, it didn't stay in very well, especially with heavy lubrication. But it worked well for thrusting. Advanced users probably wouldn't find much interest in this toy. While it was a nice introduction to anal, we have since moved on to, well, bigger and better things. Like an actual human penis, for example. So, I suppose it helped with achieving that goal, but now it doesn't do much for us during couples play.

The insertable length is about 4 inches, and the cord is about 3.5 feet. The biggest part is about 3 inches around, which is a far cry from most penises. And just like every toy that is safe for anal play, it has a flared base. This one is rectangle though, with rounded edges, and I think it's much more comfortable than the bulky round ones that most anal toys have.
    • Beginner

Functions / Performance / Controls

When you turn the dial on the controller, it varies the intensity of the vibrations, and you can feel them throughout the whole toy. The dial turns very easily. It's kind of like your traditional vibrator. The higher you turn the knob, the higher the vibration. It doesn't have any functions other then the speed settings. Personally, I think that the vibrations really helped to ease some of the awkward or off-putting feelings, especially upon insertion and right at first. This is just me though. It's hard to say if vibrations in there are going to be everyone's bag of tricks. My husband isn't really a huge fan of it. I don't HAVE to have it, but it's nice.

The controller feels a bit flimsy and cheaply made, but the battery cover stays on well, and the dial hasn't broken yet. The toy has a slight hum to it when you turn it on, but I don't think you could hear it through a door, and when inserted, you can barely hear it at all. It is not waterproof.
    • Discreet sound
    • Easy to use

Care and Maintenance

As I mentioned before, putting a condom or toy cover on it would aid in keeping it cleaner, however, warm soapy water would do the trick. But don't forget, it isn't waterproof, so don't get the cord area wet.

It does tend to attract lint and dust, so I highly recommend storing it inside something that will prevent it from being your new Swiffer.

As I mentioned above, as far as couples play, it wasn't very good for inserting and leaving during intercourse. If you are laying down, say, receiving oral or something, it would stay in just fine. But not during vigorous movement such as walking or intercourse. The small size made it great for simulated anal sex. For beginners, it was a great way to get used to the sensations without having the thought in the back of your head that something was going to puncture though your intestines.

The title of this review says it all. As I sit in my computer chair, I have this plug in right now, with vibrations on full throttle, and a little bit of tingling lube on my clitoris. Using this plug for solo play, and getting myself worked up is the best use I've found for it yet. I can barely hear the vibrations, and because I'm sitting, I don't have to worry about it slipping out, and there is nice, firm pressure. It feels great! As a matter of fact, it's getting a bit hard to type...

Follow-up commentary
I put that I still like it, because I don't dislike it. But we have moved on to bigger things and just don't really use it much anymore, unless we are looking for really light stimulation or something like that.

PicWall is an easy-to-use collage maker that allows you to insert and edit photos, text, and create custom backgrounds. In many ways, this app is much like Pic Collage. It is user-friendly and fairly intuitive. However, one feature I prefer on Pic Collage is the ability to keep your work automatically saved within the app. Primary elementary students have a tendency to forget to save their work. :) One of the biggest points you'll have to drive with students using this app is that they will need to save their completed work before creating a new one.

If you need students to create a poster, slides for a slideshow/movie, or a cover for a published piece of work, PicWall will meet your needs.

Feel free to view the video below. I created it with the intention of students learning to use the app. You can show it to your students through a projector or TV. If you are a 1:1 technology school, feel free to send it off to your class. Here is a QR code if you prefer to have students reach links through a QR scanner. (The video is embedded from Youtube.)

Sympathetic Magic

Basically the idea that 'like effects like'. Voodoo is a prime example of sympathetic magic. Abusing a doll as the representative of the person you wish to abuse in the expectation that they are sympathetic with one another. Another is 'Psychic detectives' asking for an object of a missing person in order to 'view' their location. It also forms the basis for most superstitions, such as a lucky charm or ritualistic behaviour. A catholic crossing himself before a lottery, or a football fan wearing lucky socks before a game because when she did that last time they won are examples. There is no actual logical link between these acts and the desired outcome but believers at some level think they are in sympathy with one another and in doing so there is some form of cause and effect.

Sympathetic magic forms the basis for a whole host of modalities and bad ideas but no matter how smart or skeptical we believe ourselves to be, human beings from all walks of life fall prey to it from time to time. Take for instance an interesting test done by psychologist and cognitive neuroscientist Bruce Hood: at several scientific and skeptical conferences he has challenged audience members to put on a garish jumper. It has been cleaned and washed and looks just like any jumper many of us would buy - sartorial choices aside. Almost everyone says: of course they would. But, he then tells them the jumper once belonged to notorious serial murderer Fred West; would they now be prepared to put it on? Hood reports that members of the audience will physically recoil from the few people who say they are willing to wear the jumper. A moment's thought tells us that it is ridiculous, it's a jumper. We can't 'catch' serial murdering from it. But these ideas of sympathetic magic are deeply ingrained in us and often lead us to make poor unscientific choices

Anthropologists posit that this human trait of misunderstanding cause and effect between objects or events forms the basis of religion and of the earliest human art such as cave paintings. It could be seen as the precursor to scientific thinking. Science tries to weed out cause and effects that don't exist so that we can take efficient accurate actions that really do have an affect on our environment. But we are still human and no one is immune, nor sometimes would many of us want to be. How many of us hold onto objects that have a purely sentimental value to us - a christmas tree bauble we bought on a that memorable trip to Prague (that we could have bought anywhere), a chipped bowl that our grandfather used every day or a necklace from a lover. Any of these could be swapped for something identical but we'd believe the link was broken if they were. But however magical it may seem, that has more to do with biology and psychology than with metaphysics.

I am an SAP CRM Consultant in Cognizant wanting to learn Salesforce as early as possible and complete Certification. Initially when i called edureka regarding my requirement of completing salesforce training i was a bit skeptical to choose between the local center which offers in house training - then i spoke to one of the edureka reps regarding it - First i taught what he was offering i.e Online Class / Support Team / Study Material n al were just a trick to convert me to a sale - But i was Wrong - he took my requirement seriously and gave me a very convincing plan to complete my certification by the date my company had wanted me to complete it - it was a matter of trust that had payed off for me Now i am a Certified Salesforce Administrator - A Big Thanks to Edureka!

I have attended the Salesforce Class conducted by Mr. Devanand. Very good - connectivity [v. good], content [good], faculty [excellent], and speed of the class [just right]!

Salesforce class was interactive and knowledgeable instructor, customer support is really good and course content are well documented

I confirm that Edureka team is working excellent software development training programs online .And the instructor of the training explains the every concept of programming in well mannered.And it is the better way to do learn from anywhere without any problem.And the online 24*7 helpline support is very good.The recording of every classes and the and code is very helpful to clear any doubt at any time. I would highly recommend your support team that the edureka is the best training provider team.

The online course delivered by Edureka on big data, Hadoop - developer is really nice. The first thing of Edureka is that, the very first day of your registration, you have access the full tutorial ( record of some previous batch) and which will provide enough knowledge/teaching, so whenever you are attending your actual training session, you are not a fresher of the session, but a kind, expert and you can clear any knowledge gap.More of that, as you are getting 2 lectures for the same session, your knowledge is much more, than you would have expected. As these recording will be available you for ever, you always go again and again and again.The help/administration/support is really really good.For Hadoop big Data developer, I will recommend to join.Thanks

Very good courses covering lots of topics. Excellent class delivery and lecture notes. I really learnt a lot and will surely miss not having the classes any more. I will definitely keep in touch with edureka! and my instructor through LinkedIn and emails. I would also like to convey my special thanks to the edureka! support team for their prompt technical support that is available 24/7 and for their awesome Learning Management System (LMS) on the website with all the class recordings and the material.

How to get rid of white marks on jeans

gemenacom/iStock/Getty Images

That favourite pair of jeans -- the pair that fits perfectly and only seems to get more comfortable the older it gets -- those are the jeans you happened to be wearing when a bit of bleach leapt from its container and marred its otherwise perfect appearance. Spot-dyeing your jeans will likely cover the spots, but the natural fading process of the dye may cause them to reappear. Matching the current dye of your jeans can also make spot-dyeing less desirable. To truly eradicate the white marks you will need to redye your jeans.

Spot dye

Wash your jeans and do not use any fabric softeners. Shake out excess water or spin them again in the washing machine to remove excess water. Do not put them in the dryer.

Spread a bin bag, or other flat plastic sheeting, over your work area to protect it from the dye. Lay your jeans down so you have access to the bleach spots. Place cardboard or a plastic barrier inside your jeans where you will be applying the dye so the dye does not leak through to the other side of your jeans.

Put your gloves on. Mix the dye according to the manufacturer's directions. For spot-dyeing, liquid dye is easier to handle than powdered dye. If you're using RIT brand fabric dye, you can mix 2 tbsp of dye with 118 ml (1/2 cup) hot water.

Apply a bit of dye to your cloth, pinching out any extra. If the spots are small, use a cotton swab. Rub the white mark with the dye-soaked cloth or swab. The area that is dyed should be the same colour as your jeans.

Wait for 20 minutes to let the dye set. Cover your ironing board with an old towel and steam press the marks, with your iron on the cotton setting (or the hot setting).

Wash your jeans in a cold water cycle with a delicate detergent. Dry as usual.

Re-dye the jeans

Wash your jeans as usual, omitting the use of fabric softeners. Put on your gloves and use clothing colour remover to the manufacturer's specifications. Most colour removers require you to mix the colour remover with hot water, add the garment and soak it, agitating the mixture from time to time.

Rinse your jeans. Wash them as indicated by the manufacturer of the colour remover.

Mix the dye according to its instructions. For liquid dye, the general procedure is to mix about 113 g (4 oz) of dye to 13.5 litres (3 gallons) of very hot water. Powder dyes are generally mixed using 1 package to 13.5 litres (3 gallons) of water and 273 g (1 cup) of salt. Use your plastic mixing spoon to stir the dye until it is evenly disbursed in the liquid.

Add your jeans. Stir the jeans every 5 to 10 minutes to achieve an even colour. Let them soak for up to one hour. The longer your jeans stay in the dye, the darker they will be.

Rinse the jeans in warm water, slowly decreasing the water temperature until the water is cold and runs clear.

Wash the jeans in cold water with detergent. Run them through an extra cold water rinse cycle to make sure all the excess dye is removed. Dry them as usual.

Welcome to the Elcano Project Wiki

As the title says, WELCOME TO THE ELCANO PROJECT! Over the past few years many different teams have been working hard to create Cheap and Modular autonomy at the University of Washington Bothell. We are currently working on our first two prototypes which are now in the form of tricycles. With the use of affordable microcontrollers, such as the Arduino Mega 2560 and Raspberry PI, we are working towards creating Autonomy for anyone to rebuild anywhere, and that under $2000 and fully open-source. But we don't plan to stop there, no. That is just the first step in reaching our ultimate goal, which is making our systems applicable to any desired ground vehicles, such as cars and other vehicles. Autonomy is nothing new, in fact it has been around for over 40 years, the difference is that now we have the ability to make it available for anyone who desires furthering their knowledge or simply finding a safer way to work.

My Year of 30-Day Challenges

Debbie Black is turning 30 next year, and wants to leave her 20s with a bang

It was as I was downing a third Margarita celebrating my 29th birthday that the idea hit me. I wanted to do something monumental to commemorate the last year of my twenties and set the tone for feeling awesome at 30. As it turns out, ELLE is turning 30 too this year so it seemed the perfect idea.

Rather than this year whizz pass like every other, I've decided to set myself a series of 30-Day Challenges. I'm not one to back down from a challenge – this year alone I've done two Triathlons, I'm training for another, longer-distance Triathlon and then I will begin my training for another marathon – but these challenges would be more structured and focus on my mind as much as my body. I want to be the best version of myself I can be by the time my 30th birthday rolls around next year.

My friends think I'm a bit mad. They ask, 'Why would I want to ruin the last year of my twenties?'  But I don't see it like that. I have no qualms whatsoever about turning 30, it's just another number. And, as I'm not going to get married or have kids in the next year, I'm going to enjoy a year of pushing myself.

I haven't finalised all of the 30-day challenges I'm going to try yet – tweet me on @Deb_ELLE if you have an idea! But I have six that I'm sure about:

Write a novel

Aka, write 500 words every day (let's not go too mad, I'm still training for a triathlon and have a full-time job) - it will be a start!

Learn a new language

Rather, practise a new language for an hour every day. I should be able to make good progress, I think?

Be a vegetarian

As a long-time carnivore, this could quite possibly kill me.

Draw or paint a picture every day

I'm excited about this one!

Drop the caffeine

Approach me with caution during that month.

Learn a new instrument

Practise for an hour every day – any ideas? Guitar?

I'm going to kick-start my month of challenges by writing a novel. I know I'm not even going to get close to writing the length of a very short novel (over 40,000 words), or even a novella (17.5-40k words), but at least I'll make a start. Maybe I should just call the challenge, 'Write a novelette' - though it doesn't have the same ring to it…

I think the biggest challenge I'll face is finding the time to write 500 words every day – as I mentioned above, I have a full-time job and I'm training for a Triathlon. But I want to give it my very best shot. They don't call it a challenge for nothing. I think – hope – writing will become easier as the days progress but I can visualise myself staring at a blank screen for hours on day one, the text cursor flashing expectantly in my eyes…

I'm hoping that by the time I get through my year of 12 30-day challenges I'll feel like I put the last year of my twenties to good use. Because, let's face it, 30 is going to be a big party!

I'll be documenting how I get on here each month so watch this space!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Smells Fantastic! I love the peppermint oil!! It smells so fresh and clean! I have 2 dogs, so it helps with that odor as well as everyday musty smells.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from So refreshing! This peppermint is the absolute best that I have ever used. It is so refreshing, minty, and sweet smelling. I use it almost daily. Absolutely the best quality. I got it almost a year ago it still smells the same!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I gave it to my sister as a gift and she loved it so much I had to get one for us and my wife and I love it. The peppermint is great the orange is not bad but not as good as the peppermint in our opinion. We have now order more peppermint and a few other scents.
Date published: 2017-07-04
Rated 5 out of 5 by from I love used the peppermint oil 2 ways. I've mixed it with fractionated coconut oil as a carrier oil and applied it to my achy muscles and joints for a soothing, holistic topical treatment. It tingles and offers cooling relief as it penetrates the skin. And of course I've diffused it which offers a pleasant "pick me up" on those mornings when I just can't seem to get going. Love the perky peppermint scent!
Date published: 2017-01-16
Rated 1 out of 5 by from I found these in Meijer. After smelling the Peppermint, orange, and lavender for just a few seconds each, I suddenly felt dizzy and had a headache. These aromas are dark and heavy compared to other brands I've tried. It seems they are not truly 100% pure, or if they are, they're poor quality.

On the Edge

Elon Center for the Study of Religion, Culture, and Society
Numen Lumen Pavilion, Elon University (NC)
Feb. 7-9, 2019

“On the Edge” is a bi-annual symposium at Elon University that brings together scholars working at the theoretical and methodological boundaries of those fields that have a stake in the critical analysis of religion—law, history, psychology, anthropology, literature/textual studies, philosophy, art history, political science, classics, and gender studies. “On the Edge” aims to exercise a self-conscious attention to methodological advances that can be made through interdisciplinary. Its proceedings contribute to a richly contextualized and multi-layered understanding of the role of religion in societies past, present, and future.

Elon University’s “On the Edge” symposium, hosted by the Center for the Study of Religion, Culture and Society (CSRCS), explores new directions in the interdisciplinary study of religion. This year the CSRCS invites proposals for our February 7-9, 2019 symposium focused on “The Religious Body Imagined.”

The Religious Body Imagined

This symposium will probe the porous edges of the religious body and examines the ways in which it has been imagined, imaged, and discursively produced in particular places, times, and religious traditions. It seeks to theorize the religious body’s various functions, roles, and transformative effects through a range of disciplinary and theoretical lenses. It asks, “How does our experience of the body shape our conceptions of the sacred (however defined), and conversely, how do the invisible contours of the sacred re-instantiate or re-embody themselves in concrete physical form? The symposium explicitly seeks to engage theories of the body, materiality, performance, and visual culture, as well as cultural studies, space / place, ritual, postcolonial theory and / or social justice as it pertains to embodiment.

Conference co-conveners:

Pamela D. Winfield, Associate Professor of Religious Studies (Elon University)

Mina Garcia, Associate Professor of Spanish (Elon University)

Direct all inquiries to Dr. Brian K. Pennington, Director of the Center for the Study of Religion, Culture, and Society, at bpennington4@elon.edu.

Effective Communication Best Practices

What is Effective Communication?

An Effective Communication is a communication between two or more persons wherein the intended message is successfully delivered, received and understood.

5 Reasons Why Effective Communication important?

  1. Determines Growth.

Flawless communication comes in handy in numerous ways, especially in the workplace. When you work for an organization, you are likely to serve and grow your career. Therefore, your communication skills matter a lot.

Not only this but if you are assigned to present an idea, you need to hold communication that not only delivers the message but engages your audience at the same time. In any profession, you can succeed if you are consistent with your conversation.

  1. Prevents Misunderstanding.

When working with a bunch of people, it is common that not everyone understands you. So, it is your responsibility to carry out a conversation that benefits each individual in the group. The simple way to do it is to let people know what you want them to do. Keeping your statement clear and to the point is incredibly important to avoid work-related misunderstanding.

  1. Builds Team

When experts say effective communication has many advantages. They are correct. This is because you need to have a team that performs together and achieves the desired outcome.

But before this, you are expected to train this team in a way that it works according to your expectation. Therefore, communication is crucial to building a reliable team. When you keep your team engaged, members will find it easier to come up with the issues. With the help of group discussion, you can overcome obstacles as well.

  1. Promotes Management

Being a manager is a tough job. You need to manage work-flow along with your team. Plus, you should expect unwanted issues too.

However, an ideal manager is the one who can control work pressure and handle his team as well. Take note that managers can create an impression by holding a conversation with each team member.

Communication can help in sorting work-related problems. Strong communication can also organize and manage meetings with potential clients that go in a long way.

  1. Spread Innovation

Imagine an employee has an idea but because of lack of communication, he cannot bring it to the table. This factor affects the growth of a company. This is why effective communication is encouraged in many organizations.

The ideas that are heard and followed bring innovation to the company. And, it can let go of traditional practices that no longer generate revenues. Nowadays, innovation is essential to stay two steps ahead of your competitors.

Homeopathic and Herbal Store App Development

"Build online homeopathic medicines & remedies store and allow customers to order homeopathy product from your online platform."

With the growing number of diseases in the world where the majority of them are caused by our sedentary lifestyles or growing pace of work, it becomes essential to look for alternative ways to combat the stress and cure diseases. Homeopathy and herbal medicines are being increasingly accepted by people today due to their myriad organic benefits and lifesaving advantages for the human body.

Surely, you have heard your mother or your grandmother speak many times about the term homeopathy but what exactly does it mean? Homeopathy is a medical, clinical, therapeutic and magical model that has been around for around 200 years. The substances that are used for their elaboration are extracted from vegetables, animals, and minerals.

The "mother tinctures" are diluted in water and alcohol. As soon as they are mixed with alcohol, they become super powerful substances. They are helpful in treating different types of illnesses from acute diseases, infections of all kinds of emotional and psychological illnesses. It is believed that the same substance that produces the symptoms of a disease in a healthy youth can be the key element to cure a sick person.

There are countless advantages to embracing homeopathy in your daily life. Going for a second opinion or a new medical option is phenomenal; you do not have to medicate your body with substances that can be counterproductive in the long run.

Advantages of Homeopathy and Herbal Store App

Given this multitude of pros of homeopathy and herbal medicines, people all over the globe are embracing these alternative medicines today towards wellness and health. However, this is where the problem arises. The homeopathy industry is largely offline and is not as widespread as your typical local pharmacies. Therefore, there is an ardent need to take this business online so that it can reach and benefit more & more people.

Hiring EMedStore to take your homeopathy business online through a comprehensive online medical store app is just what you need right now! Having a medical app to call your own for homeopathy is not just something that no one is doing right now, but it is also bound to increase your sales exponentially. If we look at statistics, a large number of the world's population uses a smartphone for online shopping. In this fast-paced world, everyone prefers buying things online with just a few clicks. Hence, once you allow us to design your medicine app for homeopathy and herbal medicine, you will empower your business in a whole new light!

Dubai’s non-oil exports increase by 43%

Dubai’s non-oil export market recorded 43 per cent growth during 2007, distributing products to 210 destinations, according to government figures. Exports reached Dh167.9 billion at the end of 2007 compared to Dh117.4bn a year earlier, the Dubai Chamber said in a report. The value of exports is the highest figure registered to date.

Iran topped the export rankings, receiving nearly Dh36bn worth of products from Dubai, a growth rate of 33.4 per cent over 2006, followed by Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the other emirates in the UAE.

The Dubai Chamber issued 559, 652 certificates of origin in 2007, compared to 442,287 in 2006, an increase of 16 per cent, to more than 210 destinations.

Chamber Chairman Obaid Humaid Al Tayer said: “This dramatic increase reflects the significant growth of the Dubai economy, and is directly attributed to the hard work of all its members and Dubai Chamber’s efficiency in opening up new global markets and providing the opportunity of meeting up existing and fresh trade delegations. This goes in line with the chamber’s mission of offering first-rate support and services to local businessmen and investors.”

Dubai posted exponential growth in exports to Bolivia, which saw an almost four million per cent increase of products from the emirate, from just Dh66 in 2006 to Dh2.63 million by the end of 2007. New entrants on the list include French Polynesia – which includes Tahiti, Gambier, Marquesas, Society, and the Tuamotu & Clipperton Islands – with Dh7m worth of exports; Nepal with Dh62.9m; Benin with Dh23.7m; Virgin Islands (UK) with Dh13.2m; and Dominican Republic with Dh1.3m worth of exports from Dubai.

Al Tayer said: “The report goes in line with Dubai Chamber’s strategy of providing members with economic statistics and information to help them improve their businesses.

“This rise reflects Dubai Chamber’s efforts in facilitating exporting procedures for members and stakeholders besides stressing on the leading role it plays in serving the business community,” Dubai currently represents 82.2 per cent of the UAE’s overall export market.

The non-oil exports consist of traditional commodities, including dates, hides, frozen and dried fish, iron scrap and other metals, and manufactured products that are imported by the Gulf countries and other international markets.

Dubai exports aluminum ingots, liquefied gas and ready-made garments to Japan, China, India, Taiwan, the United States, and other industrial countries in Western Europe.

Dubai boat show sees 30% growth

The Middle East region has more than 150,000 yachts in total, with local factories accounting for approximately 15 per cent of worldwide production, according to figures released by the organisers of the Dubai International Boat Show (Dibs).

As a result, this year’s exhibition to be held at the Dubai International Marine Club – Mina Seyahi from 11 to 15 March, has shown a growth by more than 30 per cent in the dedicated Luxury Supplies and Services area (LSS), with participation of almost 100 firms.

Today, Dibs has become one of the world’s primary showgrounds for super-yachts, the outstanding 23 metres plus (82-feet) luxury craft, which have come to represent the highest-end of the marine leisure market.

Four of the world’s largest yachts – including the magnificent 160m Platinum – are now owned by individuals and organisations based in the Middle East. Ten superyachts will be talking pride of place at this year’s event.

“The range of luxury boats and yachts on display has become one of the distinctive features of the Dubai International Boat Show over the years, and the 2008 event is set to be one of the most prestigious editions ever held,” said Helal Saeed Al Marri, Director-General, Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC), organiser of the event.

“Today, boating is as much about the feeling of luxury as it is about the thrill of being out on the water and the Dibs is the only place in the region to source these exclusive yachts.”

For many participating companies, Dibs 2008 is an important opportunity to present their finest designs. A global array of companies are set to have an increased presence in 2008, including Amels and Feadship from The Netherlands, United States super yacht builders Burger, Trinity, Westport and Lazzara Yachts.

They will be joined by Warwick from New Zealand, Lurssen from Germany, Royal Denship from Denmark and Shama Yachts from Egypt, while Italy’s industry will be underlined by the presence of Canados, CRN, Ferreti, Fincantieri and San Lorenzo.

Kasper Fritz Bandholm, sales manager of Royal Denship, said: “Royal Denship is taking part in the show for the first time, but we have no doubt Dubai is the gateway to our sales opportunities in Middle East, India, Asia, and Australia.”

For UAE-based designer Brilliant Boats LLC, which will exhibit in the LSS area, Dibs 2008 provides an important platform to demonstrate its global credentials.

“Dibs is becoming one of the leading platforms for marine design and engineering professionals to demonstrate their experiences and skills and the focus provided by the dedicated LSS area offers a unique environment,” said Michael Schutte of Brilliant Boats.

Dibs is open to visitors and the general public, from 3pm-9.30pm daily. Children under 12 will be admitted free and must be accompanied by an adult at all times.

Restaurant bomb in Pakistan capital kills Turkish woman, wounds 10

A powerful bomb blast ripped through an Italian restaurant in the Pakistani capital Islamabad on Saturday, killing a Turkish woman and wounding 10 other foreigners including US diplomats.

The explosion in the back garden of the popular Luna Caprese restaurant appeared to be the first to target foreigners amid a string of suicide and bomb attacks in the country blamed on Al Qaeda and Taliban militants.

"A Turkish woman who works with an NGO (non-governmental organisation) died in the blast," Islamabad police chief Shahid Nadeem Baluch told AFP, adding that 10 people of various nationalities were wounded.

Security officials said at least four Americans, two Japanese, one German, one Italian and one Canadian were hurt.

US embassy personnel were among those injured and were receiving medical treatment, embassy spokeswoman Kay Mayfield said, without providing further details.

In London, the British Foreign office said an employee of the British High Commission was "lightly injured."

Restaurant manager Shaukat Khan told AFP that a group of about a dozen foreigners was eating in the garden at the back of the popular restaurant when the explosion happened, blowing human limbs into the air.

"I was preparing an order when a huge explosion knocked me down, smashing crockery and window panes. People fell off their chairs, a leg, an arm, a foot were scattered around," Khan said.

"I heard loud cries for help and I saw guests lying on the ground covered in blood. Our owner, an Italian lady, was also covered in blood. All the wounded were foreigners."

The restaurant is one of the only eateries in Islamabad that serves alcohol.

Another restaurant employee, who gave his name only as Ashfaq, said a man was lying on the ground shouting, "Take me to the US embassy."

An AFP photographer at the scene said several of the injured who were taken out on stretchers were westerners. There was a large crater by the wall of the restaurant garden, the photographer said.

Interior ministry spokesman Brigadier Javed Cheema confirmed the toll.

"It was a bomb blast. We are trying to determine whether it was planted or a grenade thrown from outside," Cheema said.

The blast comes four days after two suicide bombs in the eastern city of Lahore, one of them targeting a police investigation headquarters, killed 27 people.

The attacks were the latest in a wave of Islamist-linked violence that has killed more than 600 people this year across Pakistan.

Pakistan has been combating an Islamist insurgency led by Al Qaeda and Taliban militants since Musharraf joined the US-led "war on terror" in 2001, but the violence has soared since the start of 2007.

The country has been rocked by six major blasts since the February 18 parliamentary polls, which were won by the opposition parties of the late Benazir Bhutto and former prime minister Nawaz Sharif.

Bhutto was killed in a suicide attack in the garrison city of Rawalpindi on December 27.

Musharraf on Tuesday summoned the new parliament to meet on March 17 -- finally setting up a showdown with his rivals that could potentially further destabilise the nuclear-armed nation. (AFP)

The results, which include estimated typical energy savings of updating each state’s code to the 2009 IECC, are provided in chapters specific to each state.

Several states have either not adopted a mandatory energy code or developed their own codes which have minimal or no connection to the IECC. The latter—including California, Florida, Oregon, and Washington— were not included in this analysis because the codes in these states would be difficult to appropriately compare to the 2009 IECC and most of these states have energy offices that have already assessed the IECC on their own.
