Syrian refugees in the US commend Trump for his missile strike against Syria

Syrian refugee, Rashid Mahmoud, who arrived the United States less than 2 years ago rejoiced at the news of American missiles pummeling a Syrian air base Thursday night, and struggled with praise for President Donald J. Trump, who has more often seemed like an antagonist than an ally.
Mr. Mahmoud, said in an interview on Friday at his new home in Lowell, Mass said:
“It was good to protect people, and I think it’s human — it’s required by humanity” .As for the president, he said, “I’m just supportive for yesterday, not all the time.”
Syrian refugees mostly welcomed an attack on the violent and oppressive Assad government they fled, even if they thought it was too little or too late. But they are unaccustomed to seeing Mr. Trump as any sort of advocate, and their praise for him seemed tentative.

Mr. Mahmoud and his family left their hometown, Afrin, northwest of Aleppo, and lived for years in Turkey, before getting permission to go to the United States. Just as they were about to leave, in late January, Mr. Trump’s first pass at an immigration order put their plans on hold; when courts struck down the order, they were finally able to enter the country, on Feb. 9.

So jubilation about an action by the president was “a new emotion,” he said, taking a break from a work sheet on English verb tenses.
Mohamad Chaghlil, 35, a woodworker from Damascus, said he hoped the missile attack — far too limited in his view to change the course of the war — would be the start of a major course correction by Mr. Trump. But he said he doubted it. And like some other refugees, he questioned why a poison gas attack that was blamed on the government prompted the American strike now, when earlier atrocities did not.
“I don’t have full idea why he did that now,” he said. “We lose hundreds of Syrian people every day, we lost more than half a million people in Syria. So why chemical attack is worse? Dead is dead. I can’t understand, and the Syrians can’t understand.”
Mr. Chaghlil and his parents left Syria for Jordan four years ago, then began the laborious process of gaining refugee status. After his father died last July, his mother had to revise her paperwork, he said, delaying her case, so while Mr. Chaghlil came to the United States in December, she remains in Jordan.
“I talk with her every morning,” he said. “She is old. She needs me, and I need her. I’m alone here and she is alone there.”
He said he worries about where American immigration policy will leave her, and still sees the president as anti-Muslim.
“I think he doesn’t care about who needs the support, and who is the murderer and who is the good person,” said Mr. Chaghlil, who was admitted to the country in December and lives in New Haven. “Maybe he felt he has to do something for politics.”
Ayham al-Asmi , who had been upset by Mr. Trump’s attempts to bar refugees, was so enthusiastic in his support for the airstrikes that he said he would vote for Mr. Trump if he could. He said more than 150 members of his extended family have died in the violence in Syria.
“He’s a national hero now,” he said of the president. “100 percent.”
Mr. Asmi, 34, who arrived in Worcester, Mass., about 18 months ago, said he had stayed up all night after seeing news of the raid on Facebook, contacting elated friends and family around the world.
“The Syrian people just gave up on anyone coming to their rescue,” he said through an interpreter, Amjad Bahnassi, who is a leader in his mosque. The attack, Mr. Asmi said, was “light at the end of the tunnel.”
Zelekha Mahmoud, 31, said the news of the American missile attack allowed her to hope that the war could come to an end, and that she, her husband, and their four small children, could return home. They settled in October in Chicago, and are adjusting to their new life. They pray and socialize at an Islamic center, the children go to school, and her husband has found work at a food packaging company. But she longs for Syria.
She says she is grateful that the United States has sheltered her and her family, but she remains wary of the welcome here; Mr. Trump’s travel orders at first made her fear they would be expelled.
When her husband joyfully told her of the strike:
“I was so happy,” she said, sitting in their apartment on Chicago’s North Side. “I feel that maybe now they will get rid of Assad so that Syria will be secure again, so we can return.”
Anwar Jebran, 28, who has lived in Chicago since 2013, said he and his family, had mixed feelings about the strike.
“We want peace, we want safety,” said Mr. Jebran, who recently graduated from medical school. “We don’t want more military, more weapons, more rockets.”
Mohamad Haidar, 47, who settled with his family in San Diego a year ago, said he feared that limited American strikes might escalate the war rather than tamp it down.
“If the U.S. wanted to interfere with military action it would be more beneficial to strike the presidential palace in Damascus,” said Mr. Haidar, who, with his wife and three children, fled their town southwest of Aleppo in 2012, moving at first to Indonesia. “The United States is capable of stopping the conflict in one month if they are taking it seriously.”
Unlike some others, he said he was not angered by Mr. Trump’s travel orders.
“I thought as the president, it is up to him to decide to decide what is beneficial to his own country,” he said. “But I wish they took into consideration in the decision how many innocent people are suffering and hurting in Syria.”

Ways to make your woman happy and feel loved

Skazyupdate

Romantic gestures are things that a lot of men lack especially black men. The truth is irrespective of whether you just started a relationship or there is no longer any spark, chances are the specific moments that are memorable in your relationship are the subtle moments instead of the grand ones.
It is usually the little moments in a relationship that mean the most to women and a lot of men fail in this regard.
You don’t have to exhaust yourself thinking of a grand idea to make your romantic gesture memorable. If you’re in a long-term relationship or you’re just starting out, here are some romantic gestures you should learn to make your woman swoon.

Make Her Laugh
Being humorous is very understated. The ability to make your woman laugh is a romantic gesture that she will always love and cherish. There are several ways to make your woman laugh without being a stand up comedian. You can send her funny videos through Snapchat and Instagram.
The videos could contain you dressed up in a funny manner or telling her something you know she will find funny.
The love she has for you will make her crack up at any thing you say, as she will find it hilarious.
Make Out As Often As Possible
No matter how long you’ve been with your partner, it is important you find time for making out the way you did when you were teenagers or when you guys first met. This romantic gesture will make your woman get closer to you no matter how tired either of you are. This is because making out creates a tight bond that is usually difficult to severe.
More so, it also helps to remind the both of you how beautiful and amazing your relationship is and can help you forget anything that made either you or your partner angry.
Call Her Family
Women find it romantic when you’re able to connect with members of their family especially their mothers. Placing regular calls to her mother is a romantic way of telling your partner that you are comfortable and have a good relationship with her family. It tells her you’re a caring and dependable person that will always be there for her and the people she cares about.
Listen Attentively To Her
Few romantic ideas top listening to your woman when she speaks. Women naturally want you to listen to them talk especially when something is bothering them. Listening attentively is something a lot of women love and it is a good way of reigniting a dying love.
Leave Her Romantic Notes
One romantic gesture that never goes out of time is leaving your woman romantic notes. You can do this on small papers that you strategically keep around your apartment or hers for her to find or simply try out your poetic skills on notes and sneak them in their bags for them to find when they get to work.
Very few things will boost her morale and make her warm up to you than this and you will have the fire rekindled in no time if there has been a lull.
Give Her Some Space
Like every single one of us, women want to have personal time and space. There are times when she may feel cranky and all she wants is to be alone. The most romantic thing to do at such times is to take a walk out of the house for an hour and come back when she’s calmer.
Doing this will make her feel secured with you because she believes you understand her emotions. Plus as time goes on, things will become easier for the both of you.

A Romanian woman lost her life


Andrea Cristea, the Romanian woman who plunged into the Thames during Wednesday, March 22, Westminster terror attack died on Thursday, April 6th, confirms Metropolitan Police.
After the attack the 31 year old woman who had being on treatment was taken off life support on thursday.
Andrea had been visiting London with her boyfriend, Andrei Burnaz, who also suffered a broken foot in the attack. It 's believed he was going to propose during their trip.

Next of kin have been informed and are being supported by specially trained family liaison officers.Andrea's death brings the number of victims of the attack to five.


A statement from the family of Andreea Cristea, together with Andrei Burnaz, said:
"After fighting for her life for over two weeks, our beloved and irreplaceable Andreea - wonderful daughter, sister, partner, dedicated friend and the most unique and life loving person you can imagine - was cruelly and brutally ripped away from our lives in the most heartless and spiritless way.

"There are no words to even begin to describe the crushing pain and emptiness that is left in our hearts. Our family, together with Andrei, are deeply touched and eternally grateful for the unimaginable efforts and never-ending dedication provided to her and us by the entire medical personnel of each and every hospital involved. Their kindness and empathy are beyond compare.

"She will always be remembered as our shining ray of light that will forever keep on shining in our hearts. Andreea is now unfortunately not able to have part of the money that was raised for her recovery, so we would like to donate it to charity. She would not have it any other way.
 

"We would not have been able to live through these trying and tragically hurtful weeks without the support of the Metropolitan Police, the UK Government and every department involved. Our hearts and love go out to our two Family Liaison Officers, Detective Sergeants Tony De-Wilde and Geraint Jones, who stood beside us every single step of the way. You were our lifeline and we will never be able to thank you enough"

A Biochemist

Skazyupdate

Should I Become a Biochemist?
Biochemists analyze the chemical characteristics and processes that are involved with living organisms. In this profession, you may work for governments, universities or private industries. Your day-to-day activities as a biochemists will often include working in teams conducting basic and applied research. Depending on the industry you're in, some of your duties may involve dealing with hazardous organisms or toxins. You'll typically be able to work a regular schedule in this field, but longer days may be necessary from time to time.

Career Requirements

Degree Level Most biochemists earn a PhD; a bachelor's or master's degree may be an adequate qualification for some entry-level positions
Degree Field Biochemistry or a related field such as biology, chemistry, physics or engineering
Experience Many biochemists gain 2-3 years of experience in postdoctoral research positions
Key Skills Analytic software (Accelrys QAUNTA, Fujitsu BioMedCache, Wavefunction Titan), computer-aided design software (Accelrys Insight II, ChemInnovation SW), graphics software (Photoshop, GE Healthcare Image Quant TL, Molecular Devices Corporation MetaFluor, WebLab ViewerPro) or object- or component-oriented development software (Perl, Python); experience with tools such as microscopes, lasers and centrifuges may be necessary
Salary (2014) $91,960 per year (Mean annual salary for all biochemists and biophysicists)
Sources: U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, O*Net OnLine

Step 1: Earn a Bachelor's Degree

Many careers in the biological sciences, especially in research or academia, require a doctoral degree, so a bachelor's degree in a relevant science major is a necessary foundation for an aspiring biochemist. Schools offer concentrations in biochemistry, molecular biology, chemistry and biology. Biochemistry majors may take course topics that include organic chemistry, genetics and cells. In addition to having a strong science background, students need to develop skills in computer science, engineering and math.

Success Tips:

  • Begin to develop relevant skills. Biochemists must have strong communications skills for engaging in research and writing about complex subjects. Students should use time in undergraduate programs to sharpen speaking and writing skills with related coursework in English and the humanities.
  • Work on undergraduate research projects. Some schools offer opportunities for undergraduates to work on collaborative research projects. This is a good chance to gain experience in the lab and prepare for a career in academia or research.

Step 2: Pursue a Graduate Degree

A PhD is typically required to work in this field, particularly in research or academia; however, some entry-level positions require only a bachelor's or master's degree. Colleges and universities have Master of Science in Biochemistry programs, and some master's degree programs provide students with a dual concentration, such as biochemistry and biophysics. Curricula usually require graduate students to conduct individual research. Students then use this research to develop their thesis, which many schools require for graduation.
While a master's degree may also be enough to work as a research technician, advanced research and academic faculty positions typically require applicants to hold a doctoral degree. Graduate students can find Doctor of Philosophy in Biochemistry programs. All doctoral candidates must complete a dissertation based on their original research. They may also take advanced courses that discuss metabolism, molecular biology and cell biology. PhD holders commonly begin their careers with postdoctoral research positions lasting 2-3 years.

Step 3: Gain Experience

Once earning a PhD or master's degree, biochemists will begin to see their earning potential increase as they accrue more experience in their chosen field. Some biochemists may choose to specialize in a specific niche of their discipline. Alternatively, the advanced education required makes biochemists strong candidates for managerial or upper-tier administrative roles at their respective universities or companies.

Success Tips:

  • Concentrate on publications. Students should take the opportunity to focus on research interests and work on academic papers while in graduate programs. For academic research positions, candidates who have published research papers may improve their chances to secure employment.
  • Network in the field. Potential biochemists, especially those looking for work outside of academia, would benefit from participating in as many networking opportunities as possible. One way to meet people in the science industry involves attending science-related workshops and conferences. For example, the National Institute of Health (NIH) offers a variety of career and professional development opportunities in topics such as career planning and workplace dynamics.Copied from Study.com

How To Stop A Man From Cheating



Ladies are very fragile when it comes to being in a relationship and also trusting their man. I will talk in respect to all the knowledge i have gathered from books.Some say men are naturally cheats let me explain men are easily moved by what the see unlike ladies,but that does not mean a man wont overcome temptation if he wants.When you wedded husband start looking outside it means that you are not performing your marital obligations properly.You can quote me wrong but that's the truth.If you really shower your man with attention and care i do not think he will really see another and really crave for the person.
Initiate Sex
In your sexual relationship make sure you spice it up with a whole lot of love and also give it to him whenever he wants it.Men do love sex and good one at that.Understanding his body language will really help matters.
Make Your Relationship A Priority
When men cheat, there’s a high chance that the woman they are cheating with is most likely having a non sexual affair with someone else. They are only prioritizing something else such as a job, children, career or any thing that pushes the man down the scale instead of the first position. If you really love him, he should be a priority and he will notice that and stay faithful to you.
Experiment
Try experimenting new sexual ideas with your husband make him crave for you more.If possible watch adult films once in a while to spice up your sexual lifestyle.
Give Him Some ‘Alone’ Time

The truth is some men cheat because they see it as a way of exercising their freedom from their partners. Give him some time alone without you bearing down on his neck. You may want to take all his time but try not to monopolize his time as that may make him squeeze out time to cheat on you.Always give him space that wont cause a harm to your relationship but it will make it grow stronger.
Control Your Emotions
A regular outburst of emotions on your man can drive a wedge between you and him and cause him to look for another woman. It is essential you channel your anger, rage, sadness and disappointment in a way that you can convey your emotions without driving him away from you. Self-control is important as everyone gets tired of appearing like a constant disappointment, especially men.
Let Him Be In Charge
A lot of times, women try to make the relationship work the way they want it to be and this will most times lead to destructive habits such as nagging, criticizing and blaming. Try not to want to be completely in charge and instead of focusing on controlling him, focus on controlling yourself.
Appreciate Him And Show It
While it is easier to appreciate people, a lot of people make the mistake of not showing it. The truth is all relationships are voluntary and any of you can decide to leave at anytime. Show him you care and remind him of it continually. Let him know how important he is to you and he’d most likely never think of cheating.
