I remember someone who was a hard core alcoholic using this philosophy, or parts of it, on me. It was my response that was the problem. It was all in my control as to whether or not I would react and get upset. So I listened ...and divorced him. 102 Manage LikeShow more reactions · Reply · 6w 20 Replies Paula Sue Nash Paula Sue Nash I always try to put myself in other people's shoes and not judge them.

Futusion

The noun fusion comes from the Latin word fundere, meaning melt, so fusion is the act of melting things together. In science, fusion is the process of merging atoms together to create energy. Fusion is also used as an adjective. Fusion cuisine is the combination of at least two different ways of cooking.

As the US media, tech world and the powers that be in Washington continue to try to figure out how to tackle things like fake news, the level of discourse, and how to keep the business of publishing from falling off a virtual cliff, one of the media properties that has been instrumental in influencing how news is framed online is making a big change.

Farewell, unpaid blogger: HuffPost drops free contributor platform that drove its growth Posted 18 hours ago by Ingrid Lunden (@ingridlunden) Next Story As the US media, tech world and the powers that be in Washington continue to try to figure out how to tackle things like fake news, the level of discourse, and how to keep the business of publishing from falling off a virtual cliff, one of the media properties that has been instrumental in influencing how news is framed online is making a big change. HuffPost in the US today announced that it is sunsetting its contributors platform — also known as its unpaid blogger platform. The news was broken by HuffPost itself (which, like TechCrunch, is part of Oath, owned by gigantic carrier Verizon), which directly tied the move to the changing tides (not Tide Pods, although I personally think there is a connection) in the world of news media and how technology is used to distribute it. “Now, there are many places where people can share and exchange ideas,” HuffPost editor in chief Lydia Polgreen writes in a post on the site. “Perhaps a few too many: One of the biggest challenges we all face, in an era where everyone has a platform, is figuring out whom to listen to. Open platforms that once seemed radically democratizing now threaten, with the tsunami of false information we all face daily, to undermine democracy. When everyone has a megaphone, no one can be heard. Our hope is that by listening carefully through all the noise, we can find the voices that need to be heard and elevate them for all of you.” The news was quietly slipped underneath an announcement of two new sections of HuffPost where the blog would now be commissioning (that is, paying) for contributions, Opinions and Personal. You might, in fact, say that she buried the lede, given how big the contributors platform had become. Between the launch of the contributors’ network in 2005 and today, it had amassed over 100,000 unpaid writers on the US site. “The real achievement of the platform was giving a spotlight to a huge number of people who weren’t previously afforded one,” Polgreen writes. “In a time before the ubiquity of social media, the HuffPost platform was a public square where Americans of all walks of life could have a voice on matters both political and personal.” Notably, the UK version of HuffPost is not abandoning its unpaid blogger platform — although it is scaling it down quite a bit. Canada is also keeping it. It’s not clear what other outposts of the HuffPost plan to do. (I’m going to ask and see if I get a response: to be clear, I didn’t have a heads-up about today’s news.) The free-content surge on HuffPost definitely had its critics, including some of the bloggers themselves. After The Huffington Post (as it was known at the time) was acquired by AOL in 2011 for $315 million, the company saw a group of them raise the alarm and claim that they were due a cut, given that their content helped contribute to the traffic surge for the blog, which at the time was getting 15.6 million pageviews per day, making it one of the biggest news sites in the world. The founder of TechCrunch, Michael Arrington — who had his own issues with the Huffington Post and upper management at Aol — used the issue to goad them all when he was still the head honcho here, by sporting a shirt in TC green with the words “Unpaid Blogger” printed on it, at the Disrupt conference not long after AOL bought TC. Ultimately, the unpaid bloggers didn’t get what they wanted, twice seeing the case dismissed. More generally, critics believed that the process of running unpaid posts was optimised for traffic and clicks above all else. A lot of that kind of content gets a terrible wrap — even if there are some diamonds among the dirt — and today it may not even be serving its original purpose very well. The converse of what Polgreen writes — that there are a number of places where you can share ideas — is that perhaps contributor networks are starting to lose traffic steam, on top of appearing like enablers of sub-par content, at a time when we’re seeing an eroding of credibility of what we read online and need more quality, more than ever before. I’ll be interested to see if HuffPost’s move signals more of these unpaid blogger platforms (ahem, Forbes) changing tack, and just as significantly whether these sites can find the magic formula to replace it in their revenue streams if and when they do.

President Donald Trump last month that he has a "three-month window" in which to act to halt the North's ICBM programme before the North will have the capability to hit US cities, including Washington, with nuclear missiles.

The Pyeongchang Games and Kim's initiative were a genuine opportunity, said Kim Dong-Yub at the Institute for Far Eastern Studies at Kyungnam University in Seoul. "By taking advantage of the Pyeongchang Olympics, the North wants to find some breathing space amid crushing sanctions and pressure," he told AFP. Whether any rapprochement would last much beyond the Games is unclear, especially if the military exercises do take place afterwards. Adam Mount of the Federation of American Scientists added: "Symbolic actions like Olympic participation and Panmunjom chats mean little on their own and are not worth paying for. "But if they pause tests or serve as a wedge for broader talks, they're vital." Olive branch or booby trap? N. Korea's new tone divides analysts AFP News AFP NewsJanuary 5, 2018 View photos Donald Trump and Kim Jong-Un have repeatedly traded threats of war and personal insults during months of high tensions over Pyongyang's weapons ambitions More North Korean leader Kim Jong-Un could be laying a trap for the US and the South with his apparent olive branches towards Seoul, analysts say, warning that Pyongyang's ultimate goal is to divide their 70-year alliance. After months of high tensions over the North's weapons ambitions -- last year it launched missiles capable of reaching the US mainland and carried out its most powerful nuclear test to date, proclaiming it a hydrogen bomb -- events have moved quickly in recent days. In his New Year speech, Kim said the country had completed its nuclear deterrent -- Pyongyang says it needs to defend itself against a US invasions -- and he had a "nuclear button on my desk". At the same time he made overtures to Seoul, saying Pyongyang could send athletes to the Winter Olympics the South is hosting next month and expressing a willingness to discuss the issue. It was a 180-degree turnaround for the North, which has long ignored South Korean President Moon Jae-In's efforts to engage it. Since then the two sides have reopened a communications hotline and agreed to talks next week at Panmunjom, in the Demilitarized Zone that divides the peninsula, while Washington has agreed to a request by Seoul to postpone joint military drills that always infuriate Pyongyang until after the Olympics and Paralympics. Unusually, Pyongyang -- whose propaganda can be colourfully aggressive, sometimes threatening to turn Seoul into a "sea of fire" -- has referred to Moon as "president", and asserted Kim's desire for improved North-South relations. Sceptics say Kim is trying to drive a wedge between the allies -- the US has 28,500 troops stationed in the South to defend it from the North -- at a time when the international community should remain united in putting pressure and sanctions on the North over its weapons programmes. Moon has long advocated engagement with the North to bring it to the negotiating table, while the US has insisted that it first take concrete steps towards disarmament. "It's quite obvious that Kim's New Year speech is aimed at driving a wedge between the US and the South," Handong University political science professor Park Won-Gon told AFP. "What is important for the South is not to play into the hands of the North." - Bigger than yours - Washington's rhetoric has been in stark contrast to Seoul's in recent months. Kim and Trump have repeatedly traded threats of war and personal insults, and the US president -- the size of whose hands has been an occasional topic of debate -- responded to Kim's New Year speech with a bizarre tweet boasting of the scale and functionality of his own nuclear button. US National Security Advisor H. R. McMaster said that anyone who thought Kim's declarations reassuring had been "drinking too much champagne over the holidays". CIA chiefs reportedly told President Donald Trump last month that he has a "three-month window" in which to act to halt the North's ICBM programme before the North will have the capability to hit US cities, including Washington, with nuclear missiles. The White House has yet to formally announce a new ambassador to Seoul, almost a year after Trump took office, and Jon Wolfsthal, former director of arms control at the National Security Council under Barack Obama, said the US had "all but forced" Moon to "forge his own path". "Easy pickings for KJU to play the charm offensive and divide the alliance," he wrote on Twitter. But other analysts say that Pyongyang has been feeling the pressure of both sanctions and the US administration's stance. "Kim was apparently concerned that there is growing possibility of the US resorting to a military option. He has found an escape in relations with the South," Professor Koh Yu-Hwan of Dongguk University told AFP. The Pyeongchang Games and Kim's initiative were a genuine opportunity, said Kim Dong-Yub at the Institute for Far Eastern Studies at Kyungnam University in Seoul. "By taking advantage of the Pyeongchang Olympics, the North wants to find some breathing space amid crushing sanctions and pressure," he told AFP. Whether any rapprochement would last much beyond the Games is unclear, especially if the military exercises do take place afterwards.

"But if they pause tests or serve as a wedge for broader talks, they're vital."
