As I'm sure you noticed, I've taken a hiatus from the challenge (and the site), though it was purposeful, it definitely wasn't meant to be this long. Therefore, I'm glad to be back in the swing of sorts. Going through the challenge, however, I've had to really think through my choices and make some hard decisions. There are so many dramas and characters especially, that I've just loved and having to make definitive choices is just plain hard.
If you've noticed at the end of some of my previous posts, I've mentioned a "runner-up" or a "nomination" for that day. Those dramas or characters were close seconds or worthy of their own moment in the spotlight so I plan on revisiting some days (perhaps all) to shine a little light on them as well. These posts won't be nearly as long and won't be as consistent as the challenge. But anytime I need a little extra time to give more thought to the current day, I may drop in a "Revisited" post as a filler.
CHANGE is a 2008 political drama in which Kimura Takuya plays Asakura Keita, a school teacher who becomes a reluctant politician after his father's death.
When the series opens, Asakura's father and his heir apparent, Asakura's older brother, are killed in an airplane crash, leaving only he to take his father's House of Representatives seat. With no aspirations for the political world, he's pretty much conned into running and wins, which catapults him into this world he despised. Asakura is a character that wanted to be a good example and live honorably, unfortunately, he felt his father had lost his integrity and buckled to political pressures and had lost faith in him. However, when he takes on the "fill-in" role he has no idea what is in store for him. With the help (spurring) of his political advisor/secretary (Fukatsu Eri ) and campaign manager (Hiroshi Abe), he also runs for Prime Minister and wins and begins to discover an entirely new way of fulfilling his promises and goals. He also grows to respect and honor his country and it's people in a new way.
CHANGE tells the story of a man that learns from experience what he wants to do and how he can achieve goals he'd set for himself. Keita would have been fine teaching forever but his path changed.
I would love to say that CHANGE is about transformation but it's truly just about a man trying to do a job well. There's tons of political manuvering and back-biting but ultimately the world behind the scenes of the Prime Minister's office becomes like a family. They learn to work together and observe one another's strengths. Though geared entirely around politics, this drama inspires and challenges in a way that is subtle but effective. Like most Japanese dramas, CHANGE brings up social issues and their effects to the foreground. It's not a drama that many write about, nor was it phenomenal but it's a gem due to the simple fact that it takes the life of a simple honest man and shows that change can occur one step at time. It doesn't happen in the way it should or as many times as is aspired but it does happen.
Inevitably, change occurs in life, whether personal or societal and there is a way to take it in stride and find that niche made just for you within it. At times the path we've chosen is wonderful but being re-routed could the best thing that ever happened to you. CHANGE gives you a little taste of that from both spectrums.
**Side note: This drama is a tie with what I believe is Kimura's best acting endeavor and it also pairs him with Fukatsu Eri, his A Million Stars Falling From the Sky , co-star, which I relish any time I can get it.

The fix for enabling RECORD MACROS worked for both OO and LibO BUT the ability to use the saved macros to assign shortcut keys only worked in OO and NOT for LibO.
In OO the macro recording and saving then using that to assign shortcut keys works fine however in LibO even though the RECORD MACROS works, when the assigned shortcut keys are used they only cause drop down menus to drop down. ALT+A is assigned for á but to use it causes the TABLE menu to drop down. The same thing with all the assigned shortcut key combinations, just different menus drop down.
How can it be that it works in OO but not in LibO?

Dedication Versus Compulsion
As anyone in the writing profession knows, it's a lot of work, difficult, frustrating, lonely and disappointing. On the other hand, it can be the most rewarding and fulfilling avocation possible. As I continue on the writer's journey, one of the aspects I struggle with is dedication versus compulsion. Here's the dilemma. Writing requires constant diligence, focus and perseverance. I try to write every morning I don't have meetings or am not traveling. Then there's all the promotional aspects: Facebook, Twitter, my blog, my web site, the fourteen Yahoo email loops I belong to, speeches, book signings . . . the list can go on. I've been fortunate in being able to follow the advice of John Vorhaus's character Vic Mirplo in the book Albuquerque Turkey to "procrastinate later." My challenge is the voice in my head that says, "You need to do more." This is the voice that says, "Write for another hour," "Send five more query letters," "Post more messages on Facebook," "Call six more organizations to set up presentations." This can be a never ending battle that consumes all day and night. So what's the answer between sloth and hyperactivity? I feel it's necessary to remain dedicated to my writing career, but I need to find a balance that avoids compulsiveness. I'm trying to ask myself what needs to be done? If I have a deadline, work on it to complete a commitment. Prioritize my to do list and focus on the "A" items. There is always more that can be done, but there is a time to stop, get some exercise, spend time with my wife, and read a good book. This also relates to perseverance. I sold my first short story on my 112th submission. What if I had quit at 111? Again the answer is balance. I need to keep going but pace myself. I'm currently seeking a new agent. I've been sending off query letters regularly. I'm not going to quit, but I'm not going to pull an all-nighter trying to send as many as I can either. The best answer I can come up with is to seek the golden mean—be dedicated without becoming compulsive.

Confused or overwhelmed about the benefits and drawbacks of making your home a little more green? Your friendly neighborhood Mr. Electric® professionals are here, helping you understand the bigger picture in your quest for a greener life.
Don't let your quest to go green be thwarted by these common myths and misconceptions:
Myth: Newer homes are more energy efficient.
Truth: Age doesn't have as much to do with efficiency as how your home is outfitted.
Energy consumption has more to do with having a green home than age. Newer homes with added square footage, vaulted ceilings and an array of high-tech electronics often consume a great deal of energy. Rather than upgrading, consider the size home that adequately fits your needs. With the help of an energy audit, air sealing and insulation, and efficient appliances, you'll be well on your way to a green home, regardless of age.
Myth: Investing money in wind, solar or geothermal is the only way to save on my monthly energy bill.
Truth: Stopping your house from leaking like a sieve is an effective – and less cost prohibitive – investment.
Simply plugging gaps, holes and other air leaks in your home and beneath insulation in your attic can reduce your demand for nonrenewable energy by up to 40 percent. Thinking about investing in a little new insulation? Don't sweat it if the top-of-the-line insulation is out of your price range – all insulation is green. Go with what's in your price range today and get those heating and cooling bills down tomorrow. There's nothing greener than reducing energy consumption.
Myth: The eco-friendly label on that product I just purchased means I'm headed in the right direction.
Truth: You may be getting ripped-off.
Don't become brainwashed by greenwashing companies who put more thought into labeling their products to gain your purchase than into sustainability practices. Avoid deceitful marketing tactics by getting to know which labels are truly green in your local hardware store:
- Energy Star
- GreenSeal
- UL Environment
- Forest Stewardship Council (FSC)
- Scientific Certification Systems
- Good Housekeeping Green Seal
Myth: Replacing incandescent light bulbs with energy saving alternatives is too expensive.
Truth: Holding on to those incandescents will cost you far more in the long run.
Replacing those old incandescents with CFLs or LEDs pays for itself over the lifespan of the bulbs, which not only use a fraction of the energy, but last far longer as well. Aren't you tired of repeatedly replacing burnt out bulbs?
Myth: Turn the lights off when you leave the room to save money.
Truth: It depends on the bulb.
Huh? You heard right. Incandescents and halogens should ALWAYS be turned off when you leave the room. Why? They are less efficient. CFLs, however, are a bit more complicated. They cost 75 percent less to operate than an incandescent. However, turning them on and off reduces their operating life, which can cost you more in bulb replacements. The Department of Energy's advice: If you'll be out of the room for 15 minutes or less, leave it on.
Myth: Turning off your appliances means they are not consuming power.
Truth: You don't know about "vampire power."
Items with a power adapter, indicator light, standby function, or clock can suck up energy even when they're turned off, draining you to the tune of 5 percent or more of your power bill. The typical cable box alone uses half the electricity of an Energy Star fridge. Multiply that times the number of these items in your house (TVs, computers, microwaves, cell phone chargers). To take a big bite out of your electric bill, plug these items into a power strip so they can be turned off when not in use. In addition, have wiring inspected to ensure poor connections and undersized wiring aren't contributing to additional energy loss and higher bills.
Myth: Turning down the thermostat when I'm gone wastes energy.
Truth: The longer your heating or cooling system is turned off, the greater the savings.
Adjusting your thermostat 10 to 15 degrees for 8 hours a day can save you 5-15 percent per year on heating and cooling costs – 1 percent for each degree it's set back. Make the savings hassle-free with the installation of an inexpensive programmable or Wi-Fi home thermostat.
Myth: One person can't save the world.
Truth: You are not alone.
With globalization, it's easy to see how dramatically one person's choices can effect another. Inspire change around you with your actions for an exponential impact that can be felt around the world. How do you want to impact the planet and future generations today?
What's sucking the green out of your life? Mr. Electric can help you figure it out. Contact us for a complimentary energy audit or home electrical safety check-up today.

Ironic Contradictions
I'm a long time reader - since way back when I was seven. That makes it over three quarters of my life that I will be a reader for. But it is worth it. When I'm not reading or wasting my time online on here or Goodreads I'll be off playing video games, studying teaching and messing around with friends and pop culture. Or reading some more.

This was my personal favourite of Gerald Durrell's works that I read as a child. It is as wittily dry as [b:My Family and Other Animals|48132|My Family and Other Animals (Corfu Trilogy, #1)|Gerald Durrell|http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1327885239s/48132.jpg|76682] and the prose is also as rich and lush.
Where Durrell excels, and what I remember him for, is in how he creates an entire book consisting of fragments of short stories. It really reads as an entire story chronicling his life, though many details are no doubt highly exaggerated. If you are a fan of humour, autobiographies, short stories and full novels then this is the book for you. It is a classic in my mind, a book that like the first, everyone should read.
Gerald Durrell in this book continues where he left off with his first (um, novel?) volume. The opening story, which follows a kind of foreword depicting Durrell's decision to write a sequel, is brilliantly humorous and serves to draw you into the rest of the novel. This story as I recall is about Durrell's sister attempting to lose weight medically and ending up getting involved in seances. Which all ends up brilliantly chaotic.
Since this is a book that is autobiographical in nature it tends to jump from story to story with connecting threads between them. It's really a journal that follows the life of one young naturalist as he discovers the creatures around him (including the ones he lives with and the strange friends of his siblings).
Sadly this book is currently out of print and I no longer own a copy. But no doubt there are copies floating around available for people to get their hands on. And if you do get your hands on these books they are worth it, so very worth it. The writing remains with me and the character depictions remain with me to this day. This is a book about the ordinariness and the extraordinariness of life, the adventures we go on and the characters we meet. It is one of the best autobiographical type books I have ever read and I give it the highest recommendation.

Schweinsteiger 'surprised' by Old Trafford welcome
Bastian Schweinsteiger is "surprised" at the warmth of the welcome from Manchester United fans since the World Cup winner's move from Bayern Munich to Old Trafford.
The 30-year-old Germany midfield general completed a £14m (19.47m euros, $21.72m) switch to United last month after agreeing a three-year deal with Louis van Gaal's Premier League side.
And he told Tuesday's edition of Bild he was enjoying life in his new surroundings.
"For me, it was a big surprise to see how many supporters welcomed me with warmth and enthusiasm at the opening league game against Tottenham at Old Trafford," he said.
"It gave me goose bumps," he added, declaring that it was "an honour" to be the first German to sign for United.
"I can promise I'll do everything I can using all my experience to try and help the club to reach the same international level as Real Madrid, Barcelona or Bayern."
Of any future run-in with his former teammates at Bayern he reflected: "I play now for Manchester United. It's possible that over the next three years we'll meet in the Champions League, that would be a really good clash."
Schweinsteiger made his Old Trafford debut an hour into the Tottenham game when he came on to replace Michael Carrick.
And he took with good grace a playful suggestion in one domestic match report that "he'd eaten too much choucroute", telling Bild: "The English have a particular sense of humour".

There are similarities between the atmosphere on Earth and the atmosphere in a pressurized area on a spacecraft, so breathing and surviving is not extremely difficult. However, there is always some feeling of weightlessness, so astronauts do have to take this into account.
If an astronaut would simply try to lie down on something soft, they might drift up, as would anything else that is not tied down. Because of this difference in gravity, an astronaut usually has to strap into a seat or attach sleeping equipment to a wall.
Light, Dark
Space travelers have to take another element into consideration when they want to be comfortable and when they need to sleep. The spacecraft's position in relation to the sun can be a problem. The sun may not only cause the area to be too light, but may also create uncomfortable warmth.
Space station cabins for individual astronauts are sound-proofed, so that helps. However, they still have to attach themselves to something to be able to remain in one place. To make their situation as comfortable as possible, and as close to their Earth habits, an astronaut may attach a sleeping bag to the floor or wall.
In space, it is just as easy to sleep in a "vertical" position as any other because the lack of gravity means the astronaut does not have to deal with up or down. When sleeping vertically, the individual must tether the arms and legs to keep them from floating as well. Being in contact with a wall helps the astronaut feel a bit more like they are in their regular sleeping space.
Still Not the Same
But sleep studies on astronauts in the space station and on space shuttles indicate that these individuals still suffer from sleep issues, in spite of all the preparations already mentioned. There is sleep deficiency, so some individuals have to use medications to help them sleep.
One of the problems has to do with the contact or lack of contact on the body, which was touched on earlier. Some astronauts have more difficulty with this than others. Temperature control is always an issue in space travel and living in space. One person might be too cold, while another might be too warm.
It is interesting to note the difference in "daylight" and "nighttime" as well. If a spacecraft is orbiting the planet, the light/dark cycle can be very short. This will have a significant effect on the circadian rhythm, or "body clock" of the individual. One method used to combat this issue is artificial lighting and light with short wavelengths.
To sum up the issue: It is possible to sleep comfortably in space, though this may not be as comfortable as it could be on Earth. Astronauts are in remarkable physical condition, so health issues are not the problem. They do get weary and they do need rest. Anything they can do to make their sleep time parallel the time at home will probably be tried.

Today the president unveiled a proposal that would reshape the nation's immigration laws, bringing them more in line with the president's views. Under the Trump plan, overall immigration numbers would not change. Instead, policies would shift from family-based immigration to skills-based immigration. The president's proposal would limit the immediate family members whom a U.S. resident could sponsor for entry into the nation. It would also prioritize immigration for individuals with certain skills. Other aspects of the plan include making it tougher for individuals to seek asylum, modernizing ports of entry in an attempt to stop more drug trafficking, and finishing the border wall. There is no proposal to deal with the millions of "Dreamers," or individuals who were brought to the U.S. illegally as children, already in the nation. The president has outlined an immigration plan, but has not prepared legislation to move this plan through Congress. Any such proposal would likely face Democratic opposition. There are also some grumblings of opposition from the president's base, with some immigration restrictionists upset that the president is not calling for a reduction in immigration numbers. Should U.S. immigration policy focus more on family reunification or economic skills? Do you support placing more restrictions on who can seek asylum here? Should overall immigration numbers be reduced, kept the same, or increased?

In the Sunday Chicago Tribune on page 28 of the first section, there was a 'story' with the headline, "Feds Shell out $890,.000 in Fees for Empty Accounts at Banks." Seems that when the government issues grants to researchers, they don't just issue a a check: they set up an account, so the government agency giving the grant can monitor how the money is withdrawn and spent…and then they apparently forget about the accounts after the grant period is over…and the banks charge exorbitant fees to keep the account active. You would think this would be illegal—but it isn't. Our tax dollars at work.
I know, it has to do with computers. I had a Charles Shwab account that I closed at about the time they issues a $.07 interest payment. They have spent more money sending me statements, but they have too many people involved in doing this, so they can't just delete the account. At least I recycle the paper.
Now, if you are like me, you probably wonder what the government is doing issuing grants to citizens. That's right. Sure, virtually all are working for nonprofit institutions that have endowments. The short answer is they are very good lobbyists, and nobody is paying attention to line items in the budgets. This is why we can't close the deficit.
The Head Start program was acknowledged to be very effective in getting low income kids ready for school. That got cut, but a bunch of congressmen had to wait a few hours for flights, and they managed to put money back into the budget for air traffic controllers—which should have never gotten cut in the first place. Meanwhile, how effective are all those screeners at the airports? The military said it could do without some hardware, but specific congressmen whined about jobs being cut in their districts, so they got money back. for stuff nobody needs! Obama cut White House tours for tourists …and here's the money— close to $1,000,000…keeping empty accounts open!
In fairness…this has been going on for decades, and you'd think, with all the people they have on their payrolls, Just 1 congress man would have a staffer fine combing the budget & saying, "Get rid of this. " (my favorite 2 would be the CIA and USAID). The CIA did a great job stopping the Boston bombers after Russia told them to keep an eye on them.
Our congressmen are not celebrities, they ar elected officials. We pay their salaries. They get excellent benefits (as do their staffers), including health insurance you can only dream about.
You might want to copy this blog and email it to your congressman & senators. You can easily find out who they are. Just google "state senators (your state) and for your local representative, you can call your local library or village hall. Then bookmark their websites. Granted… at this point, yu can only vote against them…but i am looking forward to the day when we can post yelp! reviews of their voting records!

Excellent display, comes 600mAh battery charged and ready to go. Scan feature works. Smart powerup locks to last channel so no subsequent scan needed. Advise you know your exact broadcast frequency since auto scan may be slightly off and pick a ghost frequency that creates visual artifacts. Only comment is there is no mounting holes, but 4 screws on back could be used or alternatively you could 3D print a mounting bracket. I plan to do the latter and get it attached to my Spektrum DX6e for my planes,

From Acting to Official
Ms. Kimkanika Ung was (finally!) officially appointed to the DSW Head position and Oudamsambath Phal as Deputy Head.
Strategic Planning with Professor and Dean Emeritus Nancy Hooyman
The DSW continues to take advantage of expertise by Professor Hooyman in departmental planning and preparation for the upcoming second five year plan. She also met with board members of the Association of Professional Social Workers in Cambodia to brainstorm next steps.
DSW First Higher Education Unit to Receive External Accreditation
The DSW just received news that it has received formal, external accreditation status from the Philippines Accrediting Association of Schools, Colleges and Universities for a three-year period. In March, assessors met with faculty, employers, field supervisors, social work alumni, and students, observed classrooms and visited field partner communities. Information from their on-site visit along with a volume of documentation were reviewed. Congratulations to the DSW for being the first in their country to receive this status. Read More
Expanding the Mental Health Workforce Capacity
Through support from the International Organization on Migration the DSW began delivering a three-course Certificate Education program to build foundational direct practice skills. The sequence focuses on interpersonal communication skills, building empathy and rapport, assessment, treatment planning and an introduction to brief evidence based mental health interventions. Feedback from this program informed the development of a new four-course Continuing Education certificate program "Care Coordination and Practice focused on Mental Health Practice".
Recruiting Social Work's Future
The DSW hosted 12 high school students from Siem Reap province who were interested to learn more about Social Work as a major. This exciting activity was coordinated and supported by Caring for Cambodia.
Hong Kong Service Learning and Leadership Symposium and Exchange
Program Manager for Field Learning Sochenda Srey was invited to participate in a two week exchange with Hong Kong Polytechnic University as part their MOU with RUPP. A service learning and leadership symposium was held in Phnom Penh then students from both universities joined together for a community project
Partnering For Health: Expanding into Colloborative Care
The Partnering For Health Project sponsored a Consultancy Workshop to expand social work units in hospitals with presentations by Drs. Jim LoGerfo and Richard Veith, and Tracy Harachi. The workshop was hosted by the MoH Department of Hospitals and an excellent follow up to the consultancy held in 2014. The Department of Hospitals is supportive to create a social work policy for MoH and include social workers in their minimum and comprehensive package of services for the country. There is a significant workforce shortage in mental health services so introduction of a collaborative care model seeks to demonstrate its utility to address this gap. We hope this partnership with MoH will be a step towards creating a civil service position for social workers.

Michael Light - Visiting UW MSW
UW MSW graduate is back again to partner with the Department of Social Work and the Partnering For Health Project. As a part of his MPH thesis, Michael met with health professionals at Calmette Hospital to get their feedback and insight towards the introduction of social work in Building "B" over the past two years.
DSW Provides Training to Increase Awareness of Diversity
The Department was approached by Winrock International (WI) to conducted 3 days training on "Understanding Gender and Social Discrimination and Reaching Out to Discriminated Groups" to their Counter Trafficking In-Person team and partners from different organizations. Topics were not limited but included a gender focus but also touched on LGBT groups, aging, and working with different religious community members. It was described as "a very successful training" and participants showed very positive reflection such as "I never known that elderly is a discriminated groups, and after I attended the training I start to think much about my mom." Another participant commented, "I never thought about Vietnamese minorities and their discrimination in Cambodia."
UW Hosts Visit by RUPP Rector and Dean
The UW RUPP Partnership sponsored visits to the UW by the Rector and Dean of Education/Member of the Strategic Planning Committee in December. The Rector and Dean met with a number of UW administrators who shared about different aspects of higher education administration and program management ranging from policies of the Regents, grant administration, human subjects, the Graduate School and its relationship to department programming. The Jackson School of International Studies, SE Asian Center director Celia Lowe also welcomed them.
An Inspirational Evening
The UW RUPP Partnership took advantage of a brief stopover by instructor Channsitha Marks and field learning supervisor Pisey Ly. It was a lovely chance to bring together Partnership supporters to hear about the department as well as current community work led by these two dynamic women whose work focuses on social justice and marginalized communities in Cambodia.
New DSW Instructors
Sophearith Phul and Soksophea Suong were recruited as new part-time contract instructors who bring extensive experience to the classroom. Welcome!
Children in Conflict with the Law, a Baseline Assessment
Instructor Lo Leang presented a paper at the annual International Society for the Prevention of Child Abuse and Neglect conference in Kuala Lumpur. This significant study examined primary data from a number of sources including children themselves who are in prisons.
Congratulations to the Class of 2016.
Twenty-five more BSWs have entered the work force as professional social workers bringing the total now to 106. Several have already secured employment demonstrating the appeal of the graduates with local employers.
This year's Mara Schneiders's Y4 Outstanding Supervisor went to Ms. Tuy Chamroeun from the International Justice Mission.

this is one of the truest posts in a long while
i feel that my wife and I have a healthy sexual relationship BUT a sad fact that i think most men learn as they get older is exactly the one's old flagpole stated below
1) in general (there are always exceptions i suppose) women never have close to the level of sex drive that men have
2) even women who enjoy sex and love men, aren't that psyched about the male body - i get the feeling they generally don't look at guys in pictures with their shirts and automatically want to have sex with them - i should say they aren't as into the male body as men are into the female body
3) i suppose this is not a news flash but always deserves repeating... sex for women is much, much more connected to their head... it begins hours before them, the flowers you got her earlier in the day on the spur of the moment might contribute... it is not like a man where she flashes you her chest and bam, you're ready for it

Kid, women never have the same level of need that a young boy has. Never. Not at their "sexual peak". Not even close. Can't say as I blame them either. The object of desire for most men is women. Women are beautiful. Men are...well, not beautiful. I'm not saying I can't recognize a handsome man, but holy crap are women so much more appealing. Kind of why I really don't understand why any man would be gay (not that there's anything wrong with that). Elaine on Seinfeld said as much; men are utilitarian; women are art. I agree with her. I can't believe more women aren't lesbian. If I were a woman, I'd be thinking, "you mean he's got this thing that he wants to poke me with?"

Really nice ! You have put a lot of time into it it shows, kudos to you. Since you've taken the time to make it so nice, perhaps you could drop a little easing in/out on the camera move. Possibly it's just the video playback but it appeared a little bumpy for me. Just a thought. Good luck !

Allright! This looks great! Wonderful art!
Thanks a lot guys. I just used a cheap screen capture software. Thats why the camera seems to be a little bit bumby. The game itself runs very smooth. Greetings

We are available to receive your phone call on 03300 580908. Monday to Friday, from 9am to 7pm; Saturday, from 10am to 2pm. If you are not able to phone us directly, leave us a short message through our website and we will phone you back. Please let us know your preferred time for us to call you.
We will promptly discuss your requirements with you, answer your questions and be able to advise you. The information that we will need from you may include: the purpose and ambition for the tuition; the academic subject and level; the exam board (if relevant) and the postcode of your home or location where the lessons will take place.
We can generally arrange introductions of teacher within one or two days, although you can choose to start the tuition whenever you wish, during the next few days or at some later date.
You will receive an academic profile of the teachers that we have available for you and, if you wish, you can then invite them to call you. This will enable teachers to introduce themselves to you more fully; and, most importantly, enable you to talk directly with them, to see if they are a good fit for your needs ... in terms of their character and style, as much as their skill and experience. Tuition works at its very best when there is an excellent rapport between the student and tutor.
You do not need to pay anything in advance, nor do the teachers require any contracts or minimum commitment. The teacher's travel expenses are included within the fee. You can start or stop the tuition at any time.
All lessons are taught at your home, and are scheduled at your convenience: weekdays, evenings, weekends or holidays; generally one hour lessons are recommended for younger children, 90+ minutes for seniors and adults; though the rhythms and routines for lessons can be flexible and as required.
You will receive a copy of your teacher's timesheet to approve, at the end of each month, providing you with a record of the lessons that you have received that month, and the tuition fees due. Payment of tuition fees to your teacher is made online, by credit or debit card, at the end of each month, for all lessons you have taken.
Throughout this last month, our teachers have provided tuition for many hundreds of families, clients and schools across the UK; for students of all ages and abilities; Primary and Secondary; those preparing for Public Exams including GCSE, IGCSE and A levels; those who are homeschooling; students preparing for School Entrance Exams; students requiring SEN support; also adults looking for academic enrichment or with exams to pass.
Their thoughts and views are here.

Diamond Pharmacy Services
The 2018 Recipient of the Herb Langsam Pharmacy Provider Services Award
Alexandria, VA – The American Society of Consultant Pharmacists Foundation (ASCP Foundation) is pleased to announce that the 2018 Herb Langsam Pharmacy Provider Services Award has been conferred to Diamond Pharmacy Services for their distinguished "Antimicrobial Stewardship Program (ASP)." Bestowed annually by the Foundation, the Herb Langsam Pharmacy Services Award acknowledges a pharmacy organization that is an exemplary provider of pharmacy services.
Diamond, established in 1970 as a provider of retail pharmacy services, has grown into the nation's largest correctional pharmacy provider and Pennsylvania's largest independently owned long term care pharmacy.
Committed to stewardship, consultant pharmacists at Diamond Pharmacy Services, developed the Antimicrobial Stewardship Program, incorporating the Centers for Disease and Control (CDC) Core Elements for nursing homes. The basis of the program, is to provide other consultant pharmacists with the educational background to optimize antimicrobial prescribing and improve outcomes while empowering them to become educators and facilitate staff training within their own facilities. The ASP, which was launched in 2016, identified some early goals to help Diamond facilities drive their antimicrobial stewardship initiative. These goals include lowering the amount of urinalyses (UA) ordered, determining an appropriate diagnosis of all antimicrobials, and identifying a discontinuation date. Since the inception of the ASP, Diamond Pharmacy Services has realized a reduction in unnecessary UAs by an impressive 75% in the first quarter of 2018, increased the use of facility specific antibiograms by almost 70%, and stayed focused on obtaining cut dates for all antimicrobial orders.
Integral to the continued success of the ASP, is the leadership provided by Joan Zilner,R.Ph., President; Gilbert Zilner, R.Ph., P.D., FASCP, Vice President; Mark Zilner, R.Ph., Chief Operating Officer; Deborah Milito, Pharm.D., Director of Clinical/Consultant Services Long-Term Care Antibiotic Stewardship Officer; and Paul Daisley, R.Ph., Director Long-Term Care.
The ASCP Foundation is the research and education affiliate of the American Society of Consultant Pharmacists (ASCP). The Foundation's mission is to improve the health and well-being of older persons through appropriate, effective, and safe medication use.

Number of employees
Ørsted A/S (formerly DONG Energy) is a Danish multinational power company based in Fredericia, Denmark. It is the largest energy company in Denmark. The company adopted its current name on 6 November 2017.
The Danish state-owned company Dansk Naturgas A/S was founded in 1972 to manage gas and oil resources in the Danish sector of the North Sea. After some years, the company was renamed to Dansk Olie og Naturgas A/S (DONG), meaning Danish Oil and Natural Gas. At the beginning of the decade of the 2000s, DONG started to expand itself into the electricity market by taking long positions in electricity companies. In 2005, DONG acquired and merged Danish electrical power producers Elsam and Energi E2 and public utility (electricity distribution) companies NESA, Københavns Energi and Frederiksberg Forsyning. The result of the merger was the creation of DONG Energy. The merger was approved by the European Commission on 14 March 2006.
In 2002, one of predecessors of DONG Energy named Elsam installed the 160 MW Horns Rev offshore wind farm, which was the first large scale offshore wind farm in the world.[4][5][6]
In 2005, DONG Energy acquired 10.34% in the Ormen Lange gas field (operated by Shell). The share of gas reserves allocated to DONG Energy are approximately 40 billion cubic metres (1.4 trillion cubic feet).
In 2009, DONG Energy sold its fiber broadband in northern Zealand to TDC A/S.[7]
In 2007, DONG Energy entered into the Dutch market.[8] In 2010, it started a cooperation with Dutch nl:Nederlandse Energie Maatschappij.[9] However, in 2014 DONG Energy withdrew its consumer activities from the Dutch market.[10][11] In 2010, DONG divested Norwegian power companies Salten and Nordkraft.[12] In September 2013, DONG Energy sold a power cable accessing the London Array wind farm to its partners, E.ON and Masdar for around $728 million.[13]
In 2013, DONG Energy finished the construction of the 400 MW Anholt Offshore Wind Farm off the Danish island of Anholt in the Kattegat at a cost of 10 billion Danish kroner (€1.35 bln). DONG Energy was the only bidder in the process.[14][15][16] As of 2012, DONG Energy had a wind turbine capacity of 794 MW and planned to add another 594 MW in 2013.[17] In 2014 DONG Energy divested its last onshore wind turbines, focusing on offshore wind power.[18] of which DONG Energy had 3,000 MW in 2015;[19]
As part of a restructuring plan, in January 2014 DONG Energy sold an 18% stake to New Energy Investment S.a.r.l., a subsidiary of Goldman Sachs, while Danish pension funds, ATP and PFA Pension acquired 4.9% and 1.8% accordingly. The deal was heavily criticised and caused a split of the ruling coalition of Helle Thorning-Schmidt.[20] Six cabinet ministers and the Socialist People's Party withdrew from the government.[21] On 9 June 2016, some of these shares were sold in an IPO at Copenhagen Stock Exchange.[22]
In 2015, DONG Energy had a deficit of 12 billion DKK, the largest of any Danish company ever.[23] In 2016, DONG Energy was voted number 11 on the Clean200 list.[24][25]
DONG Energy was listed at the Copenhagen Stock Exchange in June 2016. At the same time, it divested its ownership shares of five Norwegian oil and gas fields to Faroe Petroleum.
In 2017, DONG Energy completed decommissioning the world's first offshore wind farm, Vindeby Offshore Wind Farm.[26] Also in 2017, the company decided to phase-out the use of coal for power generation, and it sold off its oil and gas business to Ineos for US$1.05 billion.[27][28] After selling its oil and gas business the company announced its intention to transition to renewable energy and change its name to Ørsted after the Danish scientist Hans Christian Ørsted, citing that DONG was inappropriate considering they had no oil and natural gas assets under ownership any more.[29]
In 2018 Ørsted acquired Deepwater Wind to expand offshore wind in the US.[30]
Ørsted considers Denmark, Sweden, United Kingdom, Germany and the Netherlands as core markets of corporation[clarification needed]. However, in 2015 they also received a lease from the Department of the Interior and Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, which, in the lease, handed over some sea area in the United States for wind park development, specifically in New Jersey.
Oil and gas exploration and production[edit]
Before divestment of its oil and gas upstream assets to Ineos in 2017, DONG Energy's core areas of oil and gas exploration and production laid in southern part of the Norwegian North Sea and the Danish part of the North Sea, Barents Sea, west of Shetland, and in the middle region of Norway (gas production). The reserve base was expected to be 570 million barrels (91,000,000 m3) of oil equivalent.[27] In 2016, it produced 100,000 barrels per day (16,000 m3/d) of oil equivalent.[27]
In 2016, DONG Energy agreed to sell its oil and gas pipelines to Energinet.dk.[31][32] It owned oil and gas pipelines which extend from the Danish part of the North Sea to Nybro and the Swedish gas transmission network (Nova Naturgas). DONG Energy co-owned the Tyra West – F3 pipeline pipelines, which create a link from the North Sea Danish section to the Netherlands natural gas hub in Den Helder, the DEUDAN pipeline from Jutland to north of Hamburg in Germany, and the Langeled pipeline from Nyhamna terminal in Norway to Easington in the UK. DONG Energy also owned a share of the Norwegian gas pipeline system.
Power production[edit]
Ørsted is the largest power producer in Denmark with market shares of 49% for electricity production and 35% for heat production. It also owns power production facilities and projects in Germany, Sweden, the Netherlands, Norway and the United Kingdom.
Ørsted is the largest offshore wind farm company in the world[33] with a market share of 16%.[34] Ørsted surpassed 1,000 offshore wind turbines in 2016.[35] In Denmark, it operates the 209 MW Horns Rev 2 offshore wind farm.[36][37] In the United Kingdom Ørsted operates Barrow and Burbo Bank offshore windfarms and will construct Walney and Gunfleet Sands I and II wind farms.[38][39] In addition, it is building the world largest wind farms, the 1,200 MW Hornsea 1 and the 1,386 MW Hornsea 2.[40][41][42] In North America it is a partner for the Bay State Wind offshore wind farm in the United States and the Haida Energy Field offshore wind farm in Canada.[43] The company is also developing Ocean Wind, an offshore wind farm on the Atlantic coast near Atlantic City, New Jersey. In the Netherlands, it develops Borssele 1 and 2 wind farms.
Ørsted is the largest shareholder (51%) of offshore wind turbine installer A2SEA,[44] while Siemens owns the other 49%.[45] Ørsted also has 30% of subsea cabling installer CT Offshore.[46]
Ørsted is listed at the Nasdaq Copenhagen stock exchange. The Danish Government holds the majority of Ørsted shares (50.1%). Capital Group Companies, EuroPacific Growth Fund's, and SEAS-NVE holds over 5% of shares.[47] According to a political agreement, the Danish Government shall maintain a majority in the company until 2025. Reduction of the ownership below 50% requires political agreement of Danish parties.
Ørsted is the main sponsor of the Danish men's national ice hockey team.

text: Rail Paul Posted August 24, 2013 NY Times has an article about rental car travel in the northern Croatia / southern Istria peninsula. Although there are modern and uncluttered tollways, there are also lots of rutted roads, difficult driving, but many delightful small towns. It seems every town has a variation of the malvasia grape, and many are superb. The writer reports on many of them. The waiter presented me with a bucket of the day's catch. I selected the sarago, a sweet, fleshy white fish. It arrived perfectly grilled, following a chilled cuttlefish and squid salad and a bowl of tagliatelle with mussels, generously splashed with a brilliant local olive oil. Oh, and he also brought out a carafe of white wine known as malvasia istriana, produced by a local winemaker named Frank Arman. Its color was limpid gold, and it possessed a subtle saltiness that rippled down my throat. In the sparkling little postcard world I found myself inhabiting that afternoon, the wine blended into the background — and that was its beauty: it was a peerless, understated accompaniment to the seafood, and it bound everything together. It was why I was in Istria in the first place. http://travel.nytimes.com/2013/08/25/travel/sipping-the-pleasures-of-istria.html?ref=travel&_r=0 Rovinj lies about 20 miles south of Porec and possesses the casual insouciance of the artist's burg it happens to be. I dined that night at Monte, an airy and theatrically lighted restaurant presided over by a striking platinum-haired Dutch woman dressed all in white. The seven-course meal began with semi-crudi of tuna, scampi and scallop heated with a propane torch and served on a bed of seashells, pebbles and rosemary sprigs. It reached its zenith with a slow-roasted suckling pig accompanied by pork rind and paprika foam. You can bet that great malvasia and olive oil (the latter served in test tubes) was within reach. All in all, Monte delivered an agreeably clever spin on the region's oceanic and inland staples, with flourishes indicative of Istria's portrait-of-the-artist-as-a-young-man status today. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

General News of Sunday, 24 February 2013
Source: GNA
President John Dramani Mahama on Friday called for closer relations between Ghana and Nigeria as both countries have had the same developmental potentials and challenges over the years.
He said Ghana would particularly partner Nigeria, which had developed effectively in the banking reforms sector and could share her experiences with others.
President Mahama made this statement when Dr Ngozi Okanjo Iweala, Nigerian Minister for Finance and Economics called on him at the Flagstaff House, Kanda.
The Nigerian Minister, one time Managing Director of the World Bank, who is in the country to deliver a paper on the second Kufuor Foundation lectures, was at the Presidency to share some political ideas with the President.
President Mahama said paramount issues among West African Countries, was to forge ahead for the integration of the region to make it formidable against other regions and continents in the world.
He said although language had been a major barrier to the integration, there was the need to begin in certain areas that could finally facilitate the full integration of the region.
He said after economic and financial crises had hit Europe and other continents in the past, the onus was now on Africa to spring up, in view of the fact that there were numerous natural resource deposits in the country.
President Mahama called for the strengthening of trade links that could make the continent self-reliant and stem over-reliance on other continents.
Dr Iweala, who was accompanied by Mr Seth Terkper, Minister for Finance and Economic Planning, Frank Agyekum, Spokesman for former President Kufuor and other executive members of the Foundation congratulated President Mahama for his victory and coronation as President of the Republic.
She said Nigeria and Ghana had common challenges of high rate of unemployment, job creation and poor management of natural resources and called for collaboration that would enhance their economic opportunities.
The former Managing Director of the World Bank commended President Mahama for instituting legislations for the management of natural resources, which she said would at the long-run bring substantial benefits to all Ghanaians.

Match Report
West Of England Premier League (Wilts Division)
Marlborough Vs Devizes 16th May 2015
Devizes 86 all out: Marlborough 87 – 9
Marlborough won by 1 Wicket
Match Sponsors: The Bell at West Overton
Marlborough won a low scoring encounter with their local rivals Devizes on Saturday by the narrowest of margins of 1 wicket.
Devizes having won the toss elected to bat but found the Marlborough strike bowling attack of Brad Frost and George Fox difficult to score from. Jacob Stoner was dismissed by Fox in the 7th over having scored 11 with the Devizes total on 15 following some very tight bowling from the Marlborough pair.
Devizes had only added a further 2 to the total when Joe Wookey was caught also off the bowling of Fox for 1. Wookey's innings had lasted for 28 balls which clearly showed the accuracy of the Marlborough bowling attack.
Fox in full flow bowled straight through his allotted overs but not before dismissing Tom Grant and Tim Saye to leave Devizes on 46 for 4 after 20 overs. Fox finished the day with 4 for 8 off his 10 overs with 5 of them being maidens.
Any hope's that the Devizes batsmen held that things would improve with the removal of Fox from the attack was short lived as Will Langton soon picked up the attack for Marlborough when he dismissed Tom Andrew and Johnathan Skull in the 22nd over.
Langton then had Steve Chapman trapped LBW in the next over with the Devizes score on 53.
Devizes' Tom Pike continued to show resilience despite watching five wickets tumbling at the other end during his 45 ball innings and was the last man out for 22 when he was stumped by George Penfold off the bowling of Ben Head with the last ball of the 32nd with the score on 86.
Marlborough in reply got off to a steady start with Tom Palmer taking control and they seemed to be coasting to a comfortable win at 57 for the loss of 2 when the Marlborough collapse begun.
New Marlborough Captain Arran Dickinson was the first depart for 6 and then Marlborough lost their next 6 wickets for just 29 runs. Palmer completed his 50 but was dismissed 5 runs short of victory but with 3 wickets in hand.
With the pressure building Marlborough then lost Fox and Head in quick succession and with the scores tied Langton and Dave West scampered for a close run single to secure the 1 wicket victory. Saye was the pick of the Devizes bowlers collecting 4 wickets within 29 balls for just 9 runs.
Marlborough Captain Arran Dickinson said after the game: "I'm very relieved to have got off to a winning start today in a game we could easily have thrown away. Our bowlers were on top form again but with the exception of Tom (Palmer) we have batted very poorly chasing a low score and this is something we need to learn from for the future."
Marlborough enjoyed a successful weekend all round as all of their senior teams secured victories.
The 2nds won at Chippenham by 26 runs with Paul Smith scoring 87 not out with the bat and Will Thomas leading the way with the ball with 3 for 27.
The 3rds made it a full house with a 100 run win at home to Marshfield. Rob Attkinson top scored for Marlborough with 124 and Andy Rawlings and Harry Gleen doing the destruction with ball both taking 3 wickets a piece.

John Calvin: I traveled here in 1538, after being expelled by the city council in Geneva over a religious dispute. In this city, I sought refuge and sympathy, and was accompanied by my fellow pastor at the church I had been presiding over. Though the council here blamed me for aggravating the people of Geneva, they sent requests to that city requesting that my co-pastor and I be reinstated as ministers and allowed to return to our church. This was adamantly refused, and we moved on to Basel.

Food Science: Beauty Spa in the Pantry
Moving can take a toll on your body. In less than six months I moved from the US to Mexico and then last stop Italy. Upon arrival in Italy my skin and hair stage an ugly rebellion. My hair started breaking. My skin developed dry spots which had never occurred before. The products available to me where limited and very expensive. Desperate, I searched for answers. A quick call to my dermatologist stateside proved helpful but futile. She reminded me that change any in the season, environment, water can all lead to your skin and hair rebelling. Shipping products from the US would be expensive.
I started to look at the ingredients list on products that I had used in the past that had finished prerebellion. L'occitane one of my favorite brands used to have a lotion that you mix yourself. I used to add sunscreen and toner to mines. When they discontinued the brand the only options available were products that failed to meet my needs. At the time I was taking a science of gastronomy course online. A little more research and I was able to create a blueberry, honey and oatmeal mask that help soothe my skin. Oatmeal is not my favor food to eat, but it makes a great mask. it is possible for the skin to absorb the amino acids from the oatmeal in a face mask. The addition of vitamin oil E when combined with oatmeal fubctions as a humectant it helps your skin retain moisture. Honey has natural antibacterial properties. Honey is a good cleanser for skin because it soaks ups impurities from the pores of the skin. Blueberries are rich in fiber as well as vitamins A, C, and E they are also a good source of antioxidants.
Next came my hair and scalp. Lemon juice is effective for treating dandruff. A combination of vitamin E oil and olive oil with lemon oil is a great deep conditioner for hair. I use it as a prewashing hot oil treatment. I also apply it to my scale once a week to soothe my irritated scalp. Cellulite is no one's best friend. And, despite all the best eating habits and exercise in the world you cannot prevent its appreance if you are genetically predesposed to cellulite. A paste made from ground coffee beans and olive oil and/or vitamin E oil helps reduce the appearance of cellulite. The caffeine in coffee helps tighten the skin. The effects are only temporary but we take help where we can get it.
It took time and consistency but my hair and skin after some time my hair and skin brokered a peace agreement and all is back to normal. It turns out the cure for my rebellion was in my pantry all along.
Bon Vivant.

Culture is a new focus for business - is it for you?
Posted on 15 Oct 2018
By Matthew Schulz, journalist, Our Community
ASIC - the corporate, markets and financial services regulator - will continue to push for a better corporate culture for organisations under its remit, with new governance principles expected to be issued by July next year.
The revision comes amid a new strategic focus by the regulator on improving corporate culture - and restoring consumer trust in the system - in the wake of the royal commission into financial services.
ASIC specifically highlights the significance of culture in its proposed Corporate Governance Principles for all ASX entities, which were released early this year and are expected to be adopted by July 2019.
For example, an existing principle calls on organisations to "act ethically and responsibly", whereas the revised version calls on them to "instil the desired culture".
"A listed entity should instil and continually reinforce a culture across the organisation of acting lawfully, ethically and in a socially responsible manner," the proposed principle states.
That principle is backed by recommendations that all organisations should articulate and disclose core values; have and disclose a whistleblower policy; have and disclose an anti-bribery and corruption policy; and have and disclose a code of conduct for directors and staff.
That principle is backed by recommendations that all organisations should articulate and disclose core values; have and disclose policies on whistleblowing, bribery and corruption; and maintain a code of conduct for directors and staff.
The revised guidelines also expand the board's role in approving those core values and the code of conduct, and in overseeing management in instilling those values.
ASIC's proposed changes are currently being reviewed by the ASX Corporate Governance Council, before taking effect next year.
The principles are not enforceable, but entities are encouraged to adopt them and required to explain where they deviate from the recommended practices.
'What you walk past is what you accept'
John Price, Commissioner, Australian Securities & Investment Commission
You can't talk culture without talking "tone from the top." Together, the board and senior management are responsible for creating a culture where everyone has ownership and responsibility for "doing the right thing". The board should lead by example by demonstrating conduct that supports the firm's values, and take action where they see the wrong thing occurring - what you walk past is what you accept.
They should work to cascade these values throughout the entire organisation and take steps to ensure the firm's values are clearly articulated, communicated and understood, because very often the message gets lost in the middle and does not make it to the front line.
Some of the practical things that boards and directors can do to promote a more positive culture in their organisation include considering these questions:
- How they are modelling the firm's desired behaviours and values when interacting with management and staff? Are they living the values of the organisation?
- Do directors have interaction with staff across the organisation, and are there good relationships with key employees?
- Is there periodic engagement with all stakeholders to get a broad perspective on issues impacting customers, suppliers, regulators and the community?
- Is culture a regular feature on the board and audit committee agenda?
- Is there monitoring that captures data on key indicators - for example, gathered through employee feedback and surveys, customer complaints, progress on employee training on culture issues and using data analytics to gain insights on culture?
- Is the information in internal and external audits being fully utilised (since these generally touch many parts of the organisation and are exposed to a variety of cultural indicators)?
Last, but not least, a board should consider monitoring the composition and behaviour of the board on a regular basis to see how this is impacting on the culture of the organisation.
This is an edited version of an article first published in the journal Governance Directions in September 2016. Reproduced with permission.
