So as long as you were found not guilty in court, you would be free from further legal action regarding that crime. There are some exceptions to this rule however, for example if you were acquitted due to insufficient evidence, which would leave the possibility that stronger evidence could be introduced in a later trial, or if there was some sort of legal error in the earlier trial which would invalidate the verdict of not guilty. \n\nThe main other thing to consider is that being found not guilty", "role": "assistant" } ]

If it’s your husband’s first birthday since you were married, it might be nice to get a special gift that reminds him of your marriage or expresses your feelings for him. Here are some ideas:\n\n- Give him a sentimental gift, like an antique item (personal photos, a grandfather clock, an old mirror), and frame it in a custom wrapper that expresses your love for him in words. Tell him you framed the item in a custom cloth design because of the special meaning it has in your marriage now.\n- Create a scrapbook/photo album of pictures of him and photographs of you two over the last year or so. Donate it to a community center, and arrange for him to have someone drop it off by surprise. If you want, you can put a little note in the album that says, “I love you!!”\n- ~~Create a drawing or a painting to commemorate~~ Create a hand-drawn picture of the two of you, and give him pictures of the drawing on each day leading up to his birthday, so that he gets a new picture each day. If you want, you can give him pictures of the drawing of you and him on each day leading up to his birthday, so that he gets a new image each day. (This is a great idea for a long-distance relationship!) You could also create the image digitally, or print it out and have it framed as a regular picture.\n- Get him a special photograph with a meaningful quote or saying on it. Or you can send him an original photo, as a digital print or canvas print. Another idea is to give him a special frame that you buy or create solely for this gift.\n- Take him on a romantic date to a quiet coffee shop or restaurant on his birthday. Try to set the whole atmosphere as intimate and romantic, so that he’ll feel pampered and relaxed. You can also give him occasional gifts during each day of his birthday, for basically the entire week. That way, he’ll get the gift daily, and will think of you each day in the lead-up to his birthday, even though you won’t be physically present.\n- Get an original gift that’s themed to a hobby or interest of his, like", "role": "assistant" } ]

The DNR order is also a highly personal decision that each patient has the right to make, and it is the patient’s decision only; they should never be dissuaded from their personal choice of whether or not they want to have a DNR order.

It can also be helpful to vigorously brush or scrape the area of the skin affected by the sting in order to remove any remaining stingers. Following the removal of any remaining stingers, the affected area should be soaked in water or vinegar to reduce inflammation, and pain can often be alleviated by the application of an ice pack or cold compress to the affected area. Following these initial steps, the affected area can be treated with a baking soda paste or dry erase fluid to further reduce inflammation.

There is no cure for psoriasis, but there are several effective treatments.

Topical treatments work by slowing down the growth and accumulation of skin cells. So basically the goal of treatment is to reduce the skin cell production so that the skin is less inflamed and crusty. To get rid of psoriasis permanently you would have to find a way to completely resolve the underlying issue which is an overactive immune system, but most treatments only ease the symptoms and do not actually cure the disease.

If you're not sure whether you have an allergy to wasp stings or not, it's a good idea to set up an allergy test with your doctor before you attempt to tackle the nest.\nIf the test confirms that you are not allergic to stings, then you can proceed with getting rid of the nest by yourself.\nHowever, if you find out that you do have an allergy, you absolutely should ask someone else to deal with the nest or call an exterminator, as getting stung could be a life-threatening situation.\nContact your local vector control district. Though not available everywhere, vector control deals with disease-carrying or potentially dangerous insects and animals (vectors). These professionals can help you with identification, advise you on what to do, and may even remove the wasps for you.\nDo a quick internet search for \"vector control\" in your area to find contact information and request service.\nCall an exterminator. In most situations, it's best to leave nest removal to the professionals. If there is no vector control district or they are unable to come remove the nest, try an exterminator instead. This is especially true if you have ground-nesting yellow jackets.\nIf the wasp nest is in an awkward or hard-to-reach location, such as inside a wall or attic or underneath a concrete slab, you will definitely want help from a professional.\nIt is also advisable to call a professional exterminator if you are allergic to wasp stings, as getting rid of the nest by yourself could be dangerous. In fact, even if you aren't allergic, approaching a wasp's nest can be incredibly dangerous and, in fact, deadly if things go wrong.\nConsider leaving the nest alone. If the wasps' nest is far enough away from your house that it doesn't pose a significant threat, you should consider leaving it alone, especially if it belongs to a less aggressive wasp species such as the paper wasp. Wasps are an important part of the ecosystem, as they pollinate plants and flowers and eat other garden pests such as caterpillars.\nWear protective clothing. It's very important to wear protective clothing when you attempt to get rid of a wasp's nest, to prevent getting stung.

Though the capital hosts the largest celebration, many Irish cities, including Cork, Galway and Kilkenny, each host their own parade in honour of the country's patron saint.\n\nThe hospitality industry in Ireland expects international travellers to return in droves this summer, so spring and autumn may be the best time to beat the global crowds. Among locals, the vaccination programme has been one of the most successful across Europe, with more than 95% of adults vaccinated and 72% receiving a booster, according to the ECDC.\n\nTravel with no trace\n\nThe country has seen a number of new hotel openings and re-openings, all of which have taken sustainability seriously. In County Tipperary, 200km south-west of Dublin, the five-star Cashel Palace Hotel is set to open in March 2022. The hotel composts all its food waste to later be used in its on-site gardens, and sources as much food as possible from producers all within the county's borders, many of which are part of the national food sustainability program Origin Green.\n\nThe Wren Urban Nest in Dublin opened in September and aims to be one of Ireland's most sustainable hotels, eschewing the use of any fossil fuels. \"They use 100% renewable energy, avoid single-use plastics and source locally as much as possible,\" said Kate McCabe, co-founder of eco travel company Bog & Thunder. \"It's really easy to see their commitment.\"\n\nEven historical sites like 18th-Century Ballynahinch Castle in Co Galway has embraced its connection and responsibility to the land. The estate has worked to remove invasive plant species and developed a biodiversity plan for the grounds that helps protect the salmon that run within the neighbouring Owenmore River.\n\nMcCabe has also been excited to see a renewed commitment to local eating here. \"Ireland has really embraced the farm-to-table ethos,\" she said. \"It's quite common for restaurants to list their sources on their menus – a locavore's paradise!\"\n\nIreland has really embraced the farm-to-table ethos\nSome of her favourite spots include Kildair-based Aimsir, which serves only food grown, harvested, fished or foraged within the Emerald Isle's borders; and the Wicklow Escape, a small inn 50km south of Dublin that pairs its garden lodgings with local specialties like wild boar and venison pie and Atlantic cod and scallops.\n\nTo further connect visitors with the land, McCabe often takes visitors to Cnoc Suain, a hillside settlement on the west coast within a Special Area of Conservation in the Connemara region. The founders offer events and education in the cultural heritage of the region as well as its unique bogland ecology.\n\nKnow before you go\n\nIreland requires either proof of vaccination or proof of recovery from a Covid-19 infection within the past six months. As of 1 February, travellers must also have a booster dose if it has been more than 270 days since the final dose in the initial vaccine series.\n\nPassengers without proof must submit a negative PCR test taken within 72 hours of arrival. For EU residents, Ireland participates in the EU Digital Covid Certificate Program, which provides digital documentation on vaccination status and makes it easier to travel between EU member countries. Travellers must also fill out a Passenger Locator Form before arrival.\n\nFace covering requirements were fully lifted across Ireland in February, with the exception of health-care environments. Many local public health experts within the country still recommend the wearing of masks, but their use is voluntary.

Restaurants and shops can now stay open late and events and music venues can welcome indoor audiences again, and the country is celebrating a return to normality. Although international travel is still restricted, Ireland is a top destination for domestic visitors seeking green scenery and locally sourced foods.

The former President has wronged you and lied to you repeatedly for many years without mercy. Today, I come here as a citizen with deep concern for the state of our national progress. The fact is, we remain in an abusive relationship with a President who has continuously violated our trust for almost his entire term in office. I accept the responsibility and accountability to begin to write a new chapter by calling on you to help us move forward and to hold our leaders accountable. We can't do this alone. It's is an understatement to say the world has become a dangerous place. But here's the good news. We've been given powerful tools to shape the national discourse on issues the government chooses to ignore. We can use these tools to actively participate, and I'm calling on you to use every platform you have to create a better America.\n\nMy Fellow Americans, it has been an honor to serve you. I'm convinced that with your help, we can build a future alongside one another where each of us can flourish as individuals and accomplish great things together. And so, tonight, I want to share some of my plans for the next phase of our shared journey. Recently, we have seen great things happen in Washington State, and great things are happening all across America. The American people want their leaders in Washington to succeed, and that means getting things done for the American people. This has been a core belief of my campaign. It fueled our victory in November and helped me deliver for the American people in my brief time in office. In fact, the first bill I signed into law was the first significant step toward making the trip to Washington, D.C., easier and more affordable for all Americans. This is something that's been a priority of mine for a long time. This is just the beginning, and we will continue to work together to afford the American people one of their most basic rights: the opportunity to travel freely in pursuit of happiness. So, we will work closely together to make this new law work well and we will work together to accomplish great things.", "role": "assistant" } ]

The meaning of this song is fairly clearly about the confidence and sexual empowerment of the female body, as well as appreciating personal beauty, and is intended to inspire listeners to feel beautiful and confident about their own bodies. The sexual nature of the song is also quite explicit, including strongly suggestive sexual language and imagery, notably dominating and objectifying men and treating them as sexual conquests. It's a very interesting and intriguing crop of lyrics, with a complex mix of positive empowerment and dangerous sexism and objectification of women. The song raises a lot of important questions about the ways that women's bodies and sexuality are constructed and objectified in our culture, and the impact that has on women's freedom and autonomy. There are also some strong criticisms of moral values and messages portrayed in the lyrics, to be mindful of being respectful, considerate and accepting of others, as well as the negative impacts of objectification on self esteem and significantly limiting one's ability to maintain meaningful and empowering sexual relationships based in mutuality, respect, values and authenticity.", "role": "assistant" } ]

What I particularly notice first are the lyrics to the chorus that are stated in the song: “My anaconda don’t, my anaconda don’t, my anaconda don’t want none unless you got buns, hun”. Even though this song is about a serious love relationship, I believe that the words “anaconda” and “buns” have some sexual connotations, and thus the lines “my anaconda don’t, my anaconda don’t, my anaconda don’t want none unless you got buns, hun”, can be read to imply that she requires her boyfriend to have certain characteristics in order for her to be sexually attracted to him. The lines, “Boy toy named Troy used to live in Detroit, [...] He was keeping me stylish, now that’s real, real, real, One in my purse, 'cause I came dressed to kill, I'm fly as hell, I got 'em thirsty, track and field, I’m on some dumb sh-” also refer to how the subject of this song, which is presumably a woman, is sexually attractive and is desired by other men for that reason, and thus is able to “have them boys creepin” in her presence. Furthermore, the lines “Oh my gosh, look at her butt, Oh my gosh, look at her butt, Oh my gosh, look at her butt (Look at her butt), Look at, look at, look at, Look, at her butt” describe her physical appearance as being “strikingly attractive”: she has a very sexy and curvaceous body, and thus these lines also allude to her sexual desirability and her desirability for men’s physical attraction and sexual desire. The lyrics “real country, anaconda, let me play with his rifle, P-P-Put his butt to sleep, now he calling me NyQuil, [...] Yea-yeah, I let him hit it ’cause he hang, hang, hang, all in his like his name Romaine, And when we done, I make him buy me Balmain” describe this subject as using her attractive body to sexually satisfy men, relieve them of their energy and their attracted desires, and as a way to “collect” gifts, such as money and designer clothes, from men. Additionally, the lines “Look at, look at, look at, Look, at her butt” continually draw attention to the physical attractiveness of the subject and her good sexual health. Aspects of the song's soundscape contribute to this impression in two ways. First, there are the constant vocal exclamations of “oh my gosh”, which draw listener’s attention to the attractive subject and to what is relevant to the subject : her desirable body, particularly her sexuality. Second, a combination of synthesizers, heavy drums and rap influence combine to give the song a very sensual, encouraging, and sexual mood. Overall, the song reflects the idea that sexual attractiveness and good physical fitness are essential pathways to being desired, desired for sex, and desired for financial resources, money, gifts, and additional material resources which help create and sustain upward social mobility. This idea of appealing to men’s desire and then getting desirable resources because of that desire likely stems from the perspective of a young, single, urban, African American woman living in the 2010's as part of a post-Fabulous Feminism cultural context: it is a message to young women who may find themselves “seduced” into attempting to capitalize on their physical sex appeal to get material", "role": "assistant" } ]

Furthermore, the lines “Oh my gosh, look at her butt, Oh my gosh, look at her butt, Oh my gosh, look at her butt (Look at her butt), Look at, look at, look at, Look, at her butt” describe her physical appearance as being “strikingly attractive”: she has a very sexy and curvaceous body, and thus these lines also allude to her sexual desirability and her desirability for men’s physical attraction and sexual desire. The lyrics “real country, anaconda, let me play with his rifle, P-P-Put his butt to sleep, now he calling me NyQuil, [...] Yea-yeah, I let him hit it ’cause he hang, hang, hang, all in his like his name Romaine, And when we done, I make him buy me Balmain” describe this subject as using her attractive body to sexually satisfy men, relieve them of their energy and their attracted desires, and as a way to “collect” gifts, such as money and designer clothes, from men. Additionally, the lines “Look at, look at, look at, Look, at her butt” continually draw attention to the physical attractiveness of the subject and her good sexual health. Aspects of the song's soundscape contribute to this impression in two ways. First, there are the constant vocal exclamations of “oh my gosh”, which draw listener’s attention to the attractive subject and to what is relevant to the subject : her desirable body, particularly her sexuality. Second, a combination of synthesizers, heavy drums and rap influence combine to give the song a very sensual, encouraging, and sexual mood. Overall, the song reflects the idea that sexual attractiveness and good physical fitness are essential pathways to being desired, desired for sex, and desired for financial resources, money, gifts, and additional material resources which help create and sustain upward social mobility.

This is due in no small part to it packing the M1 chip, which helps the tablet zip between multiple open windows, watch streaming content and play games without a hitch. Put simply, the new iPad Air is a small wonder.\n\nIn my Apple iPad Air 2022 review, I said that the optional Magic Keyboard attachment turns the new iPad Air into a small laptop. My colleague Henry Casey shared a similar sentiment in his review of the previous model. Having a Magic Keyboard is what makes this seem like a good idea: Though I maintain that the Magic Keyboard is very expensive at $349, it’s a crucial peripheral for those who want to get more use out of the iPad Air beyond its touch capabilities.\n\nThe iPad Air is certainly a fantastic tablet, but how well can it function as a laptop replacement? Our own Kelly Woo tried to use the iPad Air 4 for work while at the airport last year and found it lacking. But now there's a new iPad Air in town, and you might be wondering: Is this the iPad that will replace your laptop? Should it?\n\nThe short answer is, no. Though it makes a halfway decent laptop in a pinch, the new iPad Air still isn't as capable as the best Windows laptops or best MacBooks. Here's why.\n\nThe Magic Keyboard is good but not great\nAs I said in my iPad Air 2022 review, the Magic Keyboard is a solid peripheral. I think it’s superior to the Book Cover Keyboard that you can purchase for the Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra for $349. While not a full keyboard, Apple's Magic Keyboard has enough space to let most people comfortably type on. The keys themselves also have a satisfying amount of resistance when you press them. \n\nDespite its strengths, the Magic Keyboard won’t suit everyone. It works well for short typing sessions, but its small size becomes a factor if you try to use it for longer periods of time. My hands felt cramped after about an hour’s worth of use. For comparison's sake, I think the Book Cover Keyboard is flimsy compared to the Magic Keyboard but I never had problems using its keyboard for long stretches. And obviously, neither pseudo-keyboard can match the effectiveness of the keyboards on laptops like the Alienware x14 or MacBook Pro 14-inch.\n\niPadOS can't compete with Windows or macOS\nWriters don’t need many specialized applications to get work done. So long as I have access to Google and its suite of apps (Google Docs, Gmail and Drive), along with Slack and a photo editor like Photoshop, I’m good to go. All of these apps are on the Apple App Store and can be used on the iPad Air.\n\nUsing these apps efficiently on an iPad takes some getting used to, especially if you’re a Windows user like me. That isn’t to say switching between apps and tabs is difficult. I didn’t have major problems locating or opening the tabs I needed. I prefer an arrow cursor over the grey circle that pops up when using the Magic Keyboard's touchpad, but the circle works well enough. The pointer can feel slow at times, but when it does you can simply use the touch screen to scroll through pages. Working on an iPad takes some getting used to, but once you do it's a bit like working on a small, cramped touchscreen laptop running iPadOS.\n\nHowever, there are a lot of minor hassles that get in the way of working comfortably on an iPad Air. As Kelly said in her op-ed, not having access to Chrome extensions or bookmarks can considerably slow down your workflow. Another impediment is the small screen size. 10.9 inches is great for watching videos, but it’s far too small if you want to have multiple windows on the display – even if you have perfect vision. Instead of having half the screen dedicated to Chrome and the other to Slack as I normally do, I opted to run Chrome in fullscreen mode and check Slack messages on my phone because of the small screen size.\n\nPhoto editing is cumbersome at best. The Magic Keyboard’s trackpad is fairly accurate, but using it for photo manipulation isn’t as precise as using a mouse cursor. However, if you get an Apple Pencil 2 ($99) it's not a bad option for editing photos, even if you aren’t artistically inclined. Still, if you’re used to cropping photos on a Windows laptop or desktop, you’ll find trying to do the same job on the iPad Air less than ideal.\n\nCan the iPad Air 2022 replace your laptop? \nApple's new iPad Air is one of the best iPads we’ve ever had the pleasure of testing.

Fractures of the femur are very serious and difficult to treat, because the femur is critical for weight bearing and walking, so any compromise of its integrity is very dangerous and must be addressed quickly. In order to treat a broken femur, the bone will first need to be set in place using a rigid splint and possibly surgery, followed by extensive physical therapy to regain normal mobility and strength. \n\nBroken femurs can result from relatively minor traumas such as a fall, or more significant traumas such as car accidents. The severity of the injury is judged by the alignment of the bone fragments, with more severe fractures resulting in significant loss of mobility.

Preparing for the mole removal procedure is key, since it is a highly invasive skin procedure. First, your doctor will numb the area and make a small incision with a scalpel. The incised tissue will be carefully removed, and the wound cleaned and stitched up. Skin regeneration cream may be applied to prevent dehydrating of the skin and minimize scarring. A protective dressing will be applied and worn for several days after the procedure, and sun protection advised. Taking good care of the skin after the procedure allows most patients to avoid permanent scarring and enjoy a rapid, full recovery to smooth skin. For further guidance, you should make an appointment with your physician to discuss your treatment. If you have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to contact support, and we will be happy to assist as best we can. Good luck!", "role": "assistant" } ]

In some cases, moles may be merely observed over time to see if they become malignant (cancerous). Mole Removal Kit: Removes unwanted moles, freckles, age spots and warts \n\nIn general, removing a mole is a straightforward outpatient procedure that can often be done in your primary care doctor’s office. The major advantages of having a trained medical professional remove your mole include a lower risk of scarring and infection, as well as a higher likelihood of removing all of the mole tissue, which lowers the risk of the mole returning. There are some circumstances in which your doctor may recommend removing a mole in a hospital setting or by a surgeon; this is usually only necessary in cases where the mole is unusually large, has unusual features, or is in a difficult-to-access area of the body.
