MH17: Mongolian students transferred from eastern Ukraine
July 29 (UB Post) Ukraine's Ministry of Education and Science will transfer both local and international students studying in Donetsk to other cities, citing "the current situation" as reasons for their transfer.Unuudur reports that students, several from Mongolia, will continue their studies elsewhere in the country for an unspecified time.
The decision comes during the university break, ensuring that most students remain safely outside of the city. Unuudur talked to General Consulate of Mongolia in Kiev Kh.Boldkhuyag, and he said, "Around ten Mongolians study mining at Donetsk National Technical University and one studies at Donbas National Academy of Civil Engineering and Architecture, which are located in eastern Ukraine. Right now, only one Mongolian final-year student is in Donetsk. The rest are here in Mongolia during their summer vacation."
Of the 150 Mongolian students currently studying in the Ukraine, those who are studying in Donetsk and Donbass will be transferred from universities in the east of Ukraine when they return from Mongolia. One Mongolian student remains in Donetsk right now but is expected to be removed from the conflict area in coming days.
The consulate added that all the students who study in Donetsk and Donbas will be transferred to universities in other cities according to their majors, and he called on the Mongolian students studying in these two cities to contact him as soon as possible.
Cabinet meeting covers road projects, air pollution and more
July 29 (UB Post) More than 20 issues, including road projects across the country, air pollution measures, import regulation, and preparations for winter, were discussed during last week's cabinet meeting.
During the meeting, Foreign Minister L.Bold approved the selection of a new Permanent Representative to the U.N. in association with Mongolia's term heading the U.N. Environment Assembly from 2014 to 2016. Mongolia was elected to head the U.N. Environment Assembly in June.
The head of the assembly will be in charge of the implementation of the assembly's 2014 to 2016 project plans, its finances, monitoring the budget, chairing meetings, and managing and organizing meetings with local governing bodies with secretarial support.
Selbe Highway interchange approved
The interchange for the Selbe Highway, part of Ulaanbaatar's general development plan through 2020 and the Street Project, was approved during the weekly cabinet meeting.
Ulaanbaatar Mayor E.Bat-Uul was made responsible for, "the clearance, approval and ownership of land for the road and interchange."
Head of the Street Project B.Batbold was made responsible for, "financial compensation issuance for land clearance."
The street and highway projects are focused on reducing traffic congestion by building a highway on the vertical axis of the city.
The Selbe Highway project is expected to link the horizontal highway across Ulaanbaatar from Bayanzurkh Checkpoint to 22nd Checkpoint, being built through the Street Project, to the center of the city.
The Selbe Highway will link Altanbulag to Zamyn-Uud Highway and the ANZ road, in the south of Ulaanbaatar.
Anti air pollution efforts to intensify
On May 15, 2014, efforts to combat air pollution and a resolution on the issue were added to the Law on Government. The amendment obliged ministers to, "actively work against air pollution, and a centralized policy for combating air pollution has been formed."
At the weekly cabinet meeting, ministers responsible for fighting air pollution were instructed to work with related organizations to determine the workforce required for carrying out projects and to oversee their implementation.
Officials in the sector were given the task of evaluating coal usage, and to conduct studies on heating stoves to provide information about the size of the areas they heat, the cost of maintenance, and heating efficiency.
High-risk imports under review
Deputy Minister D.Terbishdagva was instructed to create a list of risky import products based on the approved criteria for imported products to undergo inspection by the State Specialized Inspection Agency. By forming a list, the cabinet believes that the products subject to regular inspection will become clear, and monitoring the safety of imported products will become easier. The list is also expected to simplify human resource challenges facing inspectors and make it easier for importers of risky products to conduct business within regulations.
Decree issued on agricultural winter preparations
The government issued a decree on winter preparations and supply in the agricultural sector for 2014-2015. At the cabinet meeting, Minister of Agriculture and Industry Sh.Tuvdendorj and provincial governors were instructed to oversee preventative measures for seasonal hardships and natural disasters in winter and spring, and to form plans to minimize damage and monitor winter preparation progress.
Update on accidents caused by recent rain and thunderstorm
July 29 (UB Post) Heavy rain and thunderstorm hit not only Arkhangai Province's Khashaat soum, but also Ulaanbaatar and Tuv Province on Saturday night, leaving several houses roofless and one dead in lightning strike.
The man who was struck by lightning was a 28-year-old and died on impact. Several children aged between six and 13 also received burns when lightning struck them.
The Information and Emergency Management Center (IEMC) at the General Police Department received numerous reports from 10 p.m. to 11 p.m. on Saturday, when heavy rain and thunderstorm reached critical levels.
Roof of a house and a garage in Chinggeltei District were carried away by the storm, while two gers in Sukhbaatar District collapsed in the storm.
A car was ruined as piled up logs fell on it during the storm, while another garage roof was carried away and fell on a ger in Khandgait summer camp area. The roofs of several households living near the Chinggis Khaan International Airport were also carried away by the storm, according to the IEMC.

No one was injured in the accidents caused by the storm.
In addition, over 70,000 hens died of suffocation at Mon Egg LLC poultry farm as air conditioning system failed for several hours due to the storm, which cut off power at Bayanchandmani soum in Tuv Province. As of Monday, the farm staff buried 38,000 hens 12 meters deep in the ground and sanitized the farm, reported the State Specialized Inspection Agency.
120 projects to be financed by the Chinggis and Samurai bonds
July 29 (UB Post) The Development Bank of Mongolia is working to finance a total of 120 projects with its first Eurobond of 580 million USD, the Chinggis Bond, Samurai Bond, and its own assets. The projects cover eight sectors, namely transportation, construction, infrastructure, energy, mining, small and medium-sized enterprises, agriculture and light industry.
The bank planned to lend 107 billion MNT to 17 road and bridge construction and renovation projects and has lent about 73 billion MNT so far. The bank also has lent 166.69 billion MNT and 159.2 million USD to eight construction projects. Currently, 34 infrastructure projects are being implemented with financial help from Development Bank, and in the energy sector, prospective projects such as the Tavan Tolgoi Power Station, Amgalan Thermal Station and Eg River Hydroelectric Power Plant will be financed.
The biggest project the Development Bank is implementing in mining sector is a 200 million USD investment to increase the cash position of Erdenes Tavan Tolgoi LLC. In addition, the bank has lent 6.25 billion MNT for the initial construction of Sainshand Industrial Park Complex, and 48.4 billion MNT to 311 small and medium-sized enterprises. The bank plans also to lend 269 billion USD to light industry to upgrade equipment and facilities.
Illegal vendors settle in at National Garden Park
July 29 (UB Post) Three years have passed since National Garden Park opened in Ulaanbaatar. National Garden Park has become one of the most popular places for residents to spend their free time, aside from the National Park of Rest and Culture and Zaisan Tolgoi. The number of visitors to National Garden Park has risen in the past year. The park sees an average of 300 daily visitors.
The construction of National Garden Park is considered one of the city's largest and most successful creations, with a big green space (home to 110,000 trees, bushes and flowers of 22 varieties), a bicycle path, a 40 meter water fountain that turns 360 degrees, a 24×230 meter granite-paved square, 30 sculptures, a children's sport square, a 2.5 meter ski track, and a 40×40 meter ice rink.
Unuudur visited National Garden Park on July 22, at 9 p.m. Even though National Garden Park has 300 parking spaces in its designated lot, people parked their cars on the road in front of the main entrance to avoid the 1,000 MNT per hour parking rate.
Unuudur visited National Garden Park on July 22, at 9 p.m. Even though National Garden Park has 300 parking spaces in its designated lot, people parked their cars on the road in front of the main entrance to avoid the 1,000 MNT per hour parking rate.
Buses and other vehicles selling khuushuur and beverages are located near the main entrance. The buses set out some tables and chairs near their businesses and serve people food without a sanitation license. On average, one khuushuur costs 1,000 MNT, while mutton shashlik costs 8,000 MNT. The disturbing smoke from barbeque grills does not allow for normal breathing and is reminiscent of a black market. The ground is full of trash. In addition to food businesses there are also gaming kiosks. Many small businesses set up quickly outside of National Garden Park. Visitors can pay 10,000 MNT to wait for 15 to 20 minutes for a portrait, or 3,000 MNT to be photographed with an eagle.
People come to the park to take a break from city noise and for a breath of fresh air. But there is no way to take a break at National Garden Park. We encountered 10-year-old children walking around and selling khuushuur. Every country has a public park where fast food, gaming kiosks and commerce are available, but at least they have permits and sanitation licenses.
Many of the vendors outside of National Garden Park don't have business permits. Four Bayanzurkh district police officers and three security services patrol National Garden Park every day, but only a few people carry out their duties.
There are no standardized and permitted facilities at National Garden Park, except for four food kiosks and the restrooms.
"It is very nice here. The National Garden Park is more developed than past years. I think it is the only place where young people can spend their free time, and I'm happy about that. But related organizations should pay more attention to non-licensed food sellers," said resident of Bayangol district, S.Jargal.
In 2009, ex-Governor and Mayor of Ulaanbaatar G.Munkhbayar initiated the project to build the park. The original plan for the park was for 1,280 hectares, but real size of the park is 960 hectares. The National Garden Park will continue to be developed through 2020. Soccer fields, flower gardens, a beach, an ampitheatre, and an aerial lift will eventually be added.
At this time, 55 hectares of National Garden Park is covered with trees and bushes, representing 23 percent of Ulaanbaatar's green space. The park is located 2.1 kilometers from Chinggis Square, covering 960 hectares from Marshall Bridge to Bayanzurkh Bridge along the Tuul River. Twenty-seven employees started the construction of the National Garden Park in 2010, and now there are 113 employees. By 2020, the biggest garden park in the world will be built in Mongolia, which sounds great!

Sh.Demberel: Nation's development speed will vary depending on how much knowledge is utilized
July 29 (UB Post) Ph.D. and Sc.D Sh.Demberel, a representative of the Institute of Veterinary Scienceof the Mongolian State University of Agriculture (MSUA) received the title of academician during the regular session of the Mongolian Academy of Science (MAS). He was awarded the title by academician and President of MAS B.Enkhtuvshin just before Naadam Festival.
The following is an interview with Sc.D Sh.Demberel, who has started out as a veterinarian, about his contribution in developing Mongolia's science sector.
Congratulations on receiving the academician title, which is the highest recognition of individuals in the Mongolian science sector. In your biography, it was written that you started off as a veterinarian at a soum. Can you please speak about your start?
Thank you. At the time, when I was about to graduate, there was a system to make new experts work in productions in order to show them life in rural areas. Through this system, as soon as I graduated from the MSUA, I was assigned to the post of doctor and head of veterinary department in Galuut soum, Bayankhongor Province. In the registry of assets, I received assets as the head of the veterinary department. A green GAZ-69 Animal Ambulance worth 15,000 MNT was put into my account.
To me, who had no other assets aside from few books, the price of the vehicle was overwhelming as it was equivalent to 20 months of my salary. Including the diagnosis team, the department had 10 staff and their salary and fuel costs were issued under my name. It was a proper office with financing, transportation and a logo. The first aid service unit of the State Veterinary was powerful and wasn't under the influence of the soum's communion management. We were able to demand and complain about the department's work requirements. This management and supply was possible thanks to one of the senior deans at the MSUA and state honored veterinarian G.Dashnyam who worked as the chief doctor of the State Veterinary at the time. During my post there, I got to learn about communication skills with people of different personalities in order to manage work. The soum's communion had 103 thousand livestock and was sufficient to conduct plenty of observation and research. At the time, the head of the soum's communion was a great leader named Jamts.
How have you come to do research work from being a soum veterinarian?
The history of me becoming a research officer from a soum veterinarian is quite interesting. At the time, an advertisement was put up in Unen newspaper notifying that research officers will be chosen through a competition. Shortly after, I took a leave from work and went to the city to participate in the examination. I scored high and started working in the veterinary sector of the Institute of Veterinary Science. Since then, I've been working here for 42 years. During this time, I got my postgraduate degrees and worked my way from the beginner's research unit to the sector's scientific management. I did research work for physiology and biology of growth and diseases in newborns.
In the last ten years, I mainly focused on developing probiotics for veterinary, expansion of production and consumption, and training research teams and personnel. Within this framework, I researched the composition of Mongolian traditional fermented mare's milk, yogurt and camel drinks, and actively conducted works to cleanly extract bacteria for medical purposes. With its results, I led some ten projects for Doctor of Science, Doctor of Education, and a Master's degree.
Several bio products from over ten patents and product technical documentations, as well as some 30 standards that our research team developed at the last few years was put to production in the Probiotic Research and Production Center, which was established under our initiation. Staff cooperation of the agriculture sector, especially the support and encouragement of members and leading scientists in the veterinary sector was vital for providing conditions to work successfully in all stages, including research studies for diseases in livestock offsprings. I'm grateful to the current team who are continuing this work.
Research works are complicated and probably requires a lot of patience. What are the pros and cons of research works?
Research works are complicated and requires a lot of patience. Agricultural research work is completely based on experiments and comparison. Production technologies are done within specific periods. For instance, campaign for assisting livestock to deliver their young is done once a year. Therefore, related researches must be completed within that time limit. Cultivation is done in spring and harvesting in fall. Unless you wrap up preparation work, create technologies and do experiments and research within that period, you'll lose time.
For veterinary research work, before production technology testing, several research models have to be developed in laboratory conditions after small animal trials. Repeated complex works requiring tolerance and endurance is implemented during processing, including comparison of domestic and foreign press data, evaluation of results, and consideration of things that may affect production testing. Every researcher knows that choosing the correct research model is the key to successful experiments. During the research process, it's common to end up with unsuccessfully developed research models, theoretical assumptions that are inconsistent with practices, and failed trials after working on them for many days and months. However, you can create a beginning for the next successful research by taking note of all the details of failed experiments.
Since research works aren't visible like construction works, there must be aspects that most don't understand or appreciate. Can you talk about this?
From an outsider's perspective, I must look like a crazy guy who mixes all sorts of things in glass tubes. Some think that it will not have any good outcome. But you can't deny that it may become the beginning of a big successful project or a change. In the beginning of the twentieth century, a chemist asked his assistant about the work they do; the assistant answered that the scientist mixes all sorts of things in tubes and bottles all day and in the evening. The chemist gets rid of the assistant.
There are many difficulties and disadvantages of research work such as useful bacteria, which I extracted through many stages, evolving, changing or even dying during microbiological research processes. However, there are advantages such as implementing research models in production and consumption, getting new ideas from reviewing research results, developing researches of my own with the team, creating a new space for it in the respective science sector, and seeing its result.
As mentioned before, we initiated and commissioned the Probiotic Research and Production Center with a workshop under our institute, with the support of another governing body. This is also part of the initiations of our team's leading scientists, but due to financial difficulties, it's unable to operate at an adequate level.
Do you face difficulties in financing research materials and its implementation?
There's scarcity in investments and financing opportunities. It's important to increase financing in order to develop basic and applied research works and put scientific and technological achievements into use. The medical sector takes high priority in probiotic issues and cooperates with us but the Mongolian Veterinary Medical Association management rejects proposed projects. We're being tolerant at the moment. Investment and financing that come through foreign relations are very important and it's great to see young people advance their knowledge and get results from work that they conducted in partnership with internationally recognized scientists. It's also great to combine quick operations of younger generations with the knowledge of experienced senior scientists. Operations with experience-based knowledge are the root of prosperity.
How many members does the MAS have and how many representatives of agricultural science are there?
Currently, the MAS has around 50 members. Four new members were chosen this year and six agricultural academicians are representing the veterinary sector. Under the supervision of the MAS, the Mongolian Academy of Agricultural Sciences was established in 2009. All science and technological matters for the sector are managed by the respective academy and its office, the Scientific Council of the MSUA.
Are the government and ministries able to reflect the large intellectual resource of scientists in policies?
Depending on how much knowledge you can utilize for production and how much demand you can acquire for intellectual products, the nation's development speed will vary. There is a way to increase production and demand for intellectual products. To do this, we have to uphold the principle to do analysis for scientific and technological projects demanded by the ministry and agency, get results for the first stage of production, and then, announce tenders for implementation and acquire up to 50 percent of the total financing from the portfolio of the sector's minister. This is consistent with the principle stating that results of in demand research work must be utilized. I have to acknowledge that our scientists and researchers are inactive in participating in policy and decision-making.
It is a fact that our scientists participated more actively in government policy development than academicians before. One way to utilize scientists' capacity and intellectual resource is to have extensive involvement of scientists in professional councils, committees and working groups at the ministry and government agencies. I believe that this is a good opportunity to bind joint productive activities of experts and researchers at the ministry and government agencies.

Can I tell you what amazing thing I realized this weekend?
I realized I no longer view the world/god/spirit as something out to get me. In the past, I would spend most my time believing that the pain in my life was "being done" to me. And I would see examples of horrible tragedies and think the same sort of thoughts, the world/god/spirit is just mean, with a capital M. Yesterday I was talking with a friend and realized I don't think that anymore. I don't live in a constant state of being the victim, constantly wondering and feeling why life was "out to get me," (and others.) I don't live in that place anymore and I realized this while watching an episode of Louie. Part 2 of the duckling episode. Inspiration and realizations can come in the strangest packages.
Now, I am SO GRATEFUL that I can see the world, its ebbs and flows, and I can appreciate it. I realize (most of the time) that there ISN'T some entity out to get me, that this is just life and there is great beauty in it when I can accept that I see great pain and great joy side by side, and realize it is Life. Nothing more, nothing less. This is Life. And Life is beautiful.

I just returned from a weekend at the Hyatt Zilara (formerly THE ROYAL Cancun) and here is my honest review.
First of all, let me be upfront and tell you that I am a travel agent. I went to this resort because I have 12 couples booked here in May. With the change of ownership, I just wanted to make sure that everything is still up to the same standards as the Real Resort. I was not disappointed.
Check-In: We were met with champagne and led over to a table in which the concierge asked us about our preferred pillows, when we would want have maid service, and what kind of aromatherapy for the room. We also were able to make reservations for dinners right then. Not all restaurants require reservations but since we were there for only 2 nights, I wanted to try one of the specialty restaurants. We chose Maria Maria (more on that later).
Our room was not ready until 3:00pm. I don't know why everyone makes such an issue about their room not being ready until later in the afternoon. Check-out is at 11:00am, they clean the rooms, and then they check you in. Just come prepared . . . we packed our swimsuits on the outside pockets of our carry-ons, changed, and got on with our weekend. It really is no big deal!
Room: We stayed just in the entry-level Junior Suite. If you cannot afford to upgrade, don't worry! Every room at this resort is ocean front! The view, as you can tell from my pictures, is absolutely amazing. There is a large spa tub right in the bedroom. We never used it. Some people love them, some people hate them. I just don't really take baths on vacation. The shower was huge with about 6 different water spout and it is big enough for two. The drains are not that great and the water did stand a bit but once the water was turned off, it drained rather quickly.
There is a mini-bar in the room stocked with name brand liquors, beers, soda, juices, and water. There was also a full bottle of wine waiting for us.
Turn down service was fantastic and little candies were left each night.
Service: I cannot say enough about the service at this resort. Every single waiter, housekeeper, concierge, bartender . . .everyone went out of their way to make sure that they gave us the best service possible. There is a pool waiter that walks around and will clean your sunglasses. The waiters hand out frozen grapes. They all are just great.
In particular, we loved Felipe at the Lobby Bar. He was so much fun and really made us feel so special. I loved talking to Felipe about his family and about Don Julio 1942 and Real(ha!). I also loved Nava's mojitos down at the beach bar. They were great!
Food: This is the one area where I can't go on and on. In all honesty, I was just there for 2 nights so I don't have a huge selection. Some of the standouts were the Mexican Coffee at Tapas & Pinxtos, my husband loved the tuna at Maria Marias, the flank steak tacos at Pelicano's were great as was the guacamole. I wish we could have tried the Chef's Table . . .another reason to go back.
Entertainment: There are nightly shows in the lobby along with other special theme nights (ie Disco night, etc). The flamenco dancer and singer were fantastic. Him singing Ava Maria was unforgettable. I also enjoyed fondue night. There is also a lady who rolls some fantastic Cuban cigars. She is great.
Beach: The beach is wide and gorgeous. The chairs are nice and the beach service was great. The ocean was very rough and not very swimmable but you can't judge that because next week, it could be great!
Location: This resort is only about 15 minutes from the airport. It has a great, walkable beach. If you want to venture out, feel free to jump on the city bus for only $1 and go to local restaurants, bars, and shops.
If you have any particular questions about this resort, please feel free to message me.

During the annual Big Improvement Day event, TU Delft spin-off Inkless received the Startup Award 2017 for their innovative ink-free printing technology from. Chief editor Gert-Jaap Hoekman from NU.nl said that the jury appreciated the company for "its revolutionary idea and for the impact that the company can generate for the way we interact with ink - and thus take care of the climate."
Inkless' patented technology enables high resolution black‐and‐white printing without the use of ink. Cartridges, toners or special coatings are no longer necessary The printing of text, images and graphics can be applied to paper, labels and packaging surfaces. The innovative printing technology can be incorporated into existing production lines. This makes it a very effective and environment friendly printing technology for multiple markets: coding & marking devices, digital production printers, office and consumer printers.
Jurors Jan Andriessen (HENQ), Philippe Wits (a.s.r.), Diana Krieger (Soverin), Michael Huitema (CoC), Ben Woldring (Bencom), Suzanne Blotenburg (NUzakelijk / StartupJuncture) and Ralph Hesse (BID) realise that the startup will meet some challenges offering an alternative that may replace black ink cartridges.

June 11, 2019
Africans from Ebola-ridden Congo are coming through America's southern border illegally with the help of Soros NGOs.
The Congolese are not being screened by Border Patrol, are given temporary asylum and are being dropped off in major cities in this country.
San Antonio Concerned About Ebola In Migrant Shelters
Normally migrants that come in have host families or destinations, but with the Congolese, this is not the case.
Most have no host families yet, so they are given bus tickets to other cities.
There has been a news blackout on the Ebola threat, meanwhile, the border is collapsing and there is no telling how many people from Ebola-stricken countries are entering the U.S.
San Antonio City Official Admits They Do Not Check Health Records Of Incoming Migrants
Infowars talked to residents of and visitors to San Antonio, Texas who were very concerned.
Infowars reporters watched a migrant shelter over a short period of time as Africans literally vanished into America after being sent off in busses.
There will be one more video covering the tour of the shelter in San Antonio and how African migrants did not have host families but were being sent off anyway.

Three weekend reads, currated from the world wide web to enrich your soul and equip you for mission.
1. A Quiet Exodus: Why Black Worshipers Are Leaving White Evangelical Churches (from Campbell Robertson)
In the last couple of decades, there had been signs, however modest, that eleven o'clock on Sunday morning might cease to be the most segregated hour in America. "Racial reconciliation" was the talk of conferences and the subject of formal resolutions. Large Christian ministries were dedicated to the aim of integration, and many black Christians decided to join white-majority congregations. Some went as missionaries, called by God to integrate. Others were simply drawn to a different worship style — short, conveniently timed services that emphasized a personal connection to God.
The fruits could be seen if you looked in the right places…In 2012, according to a report from the National Congregation Study, more than two-thirds of those attending white-majority churches were worshiping alongside at least some black congregants, a notable increase since a similar survey in 1998. This was more likely to be the case in evangelical churches than in mainline Protestant churches, and more likely in larger ones than in smaller ones.
Then came the 2016 election…

2. You Can Win the War Against Sin: Three Promises for Today's Temptation (from Scott Hubbard)
If you're a Christian, you know war. War with your pride, war with your lust, war with your anger. War at home, war at work, war when you're alone. War in your head, war in your heart, war in your mouth.Kill one enemy, and another takes its place. Fight your way up one hill, and ten more rise up behind it. Let up your vigilance for one hour, and you've lost ground. Day after day, week after week, month after month, with no end in sight.
Perhaps in the pitch of battle, when the enemies inside you feel unrelenting, you've wondered, "Is this normal? Is this really the Christian life — this endless trudging, this constant watchfulness, this ruthless denial of so much within me?"
In these moments, Christ our commander comes alongside us with three reminders: the war is normal, the war is winnable, and the war will end.

3. I Still Seek to Win Him: Letter to a Woman Married to an Unbeliever (from Sheila Dougal)
I know what it's like to wake up on Sunday morning to get ready for church knowing my husband is staying home, and I'm taking my two teenage sons to church alone. I know what it's like to listen to a sermon on marriage and feel like half of it doesn't apply, because my husband isn't a believer and doesn't consider what it means to love his wife like Christ loved the church. I know what it feels like to pray and sing and cry in the bathroom with the fan on, because if I did it in the open, he might mock me. I know the constant tension of trying to please an unbelieving husband and Christ.

Opinions of Japan as a market tend to be quite polarised and the country has looked cheap on a valuation basis for quite some time, both historically and relatively.
However, is the story different this time and what does the data tell us?
Many domestic fund managers remain optimistic, placing faith that the 'Abenomics' rally, forged by prime minister Shinzo Abe in 2013, is likely to continue. As a reminder, Abe's three arrows are centred on monetary policy, fiscal measures and growth strategies. These policies are driving the economy toward a growth trajectory and, so far, the objectives seem to be working.
The Abe administration has been working proactively on long-term initiatives to address Japan's changing social structure, such as the ageing and shrinking population. In addition, the government has positioned promoting economic growth and structural reforms to support the economic recovery as its top priority and continues to coordinate with the Bank of Japan (BoJ) on the policy front. With the government focused on economic policy, the likelihood of the BoJ switching to a very tight monetary stance is low, underlining the country's continued monetary-fiscal co-ordination.
Additionally, and importantly is the change we are seeing in terms of corporate profitability. Companies are experiencing all-time high profit margins. While yen depreciation has always been a factor in profitability, it's important to note that profit margins are diverging from currency movements, more driven by productivity improvements such as labour-saving automation.
Historically, equity investment has been dominated by external investors but, year-to-date, there has been a significant increase in domestic investment.
Finally, with the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo not far away, preparations are in progress, and this infrastructure development will support the economy and should encourage investment activity.
In summation, Japan's outlook remains positive relative to that of other countries and regions.
The Bank of Japan's ETF purchasing programme
Further supporting the overall equity market and ETF market in Japan is the BoJ. In 2010, the central bank began its ETF purchasing programme. The objective of the programme was to encourage a decline in longer-term interest rates and various risk premiums, with a view to further enhance monetary easing. The BoJ has been buying ETFs tracking the TOPIX, Nikkei 225 and the JPX-Nikkei 400 indices.
Many critics have argued that the BoJ involvement through its purchasing programme has distorted the governance of Japanese companies. However, this is a common misconception, as asset managers continue to manage the proxy voting rights for the ETFs owned by the BoJ.
The BoJ's ETF purchases, which are currently targeted at ¥6trn (approximately $54bn) annually, have no doubt supported the market. At the bank's meeting in July it was decided to shift more of its purchases into the broader TOPIX Index, and away from the Nikkei 225 index. The composition of the Nikkei 225 index means that the top 10 stocks account for approximately 33% of its overall total value.
By contrast, the TOPIX index holds a significantly broader range of stocks and stock weightings are less concentrated (the top 10 accounting for 16% – half the equivalent amount for the Nikkei 225). Unlike the Nikkei 225, the TOPIX is free-float adjusted and market-cap weighted (figure 1).
The BoJ announced at its monetary policy meeting in July that it intends to continue purchasing ¥6trn of ETFs over the next year. However, its attitude has changed slightly. The BoJ indicated that if market or economic conditions change, it could decelerate ETF purchases. It is worth bearing in mind though that purchases should remain at the current rate if equities decline. This would reduce one bullish factor for the market. But the 50% reduction of the amount of bank reserves subject to the BoJ's negative interest rate is positive for banks' profitability and to a degree clears negative fears about the whole policy. This should help the overall equity market.
A massive and growing ETF market
The growth of the Japanese ETF market has been phenomenal. Asia is the third-largest ETF market globally and Japanese-domiciled ETFs dominate the Asian ETF market, accounting for more than half. As of 31 July 2018, the total AUM of ETFs listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange was $324bn.
Figure 2 illustrates the huge amount of growth. Most investment has come from the BoJ, but many regional banks in Japan are also entering the market due to negative interest rates and to gain a better return on their reserves. Additionally, retail investors in Japan and overseas investors are identifying economic indicators to be supportive for growth in the Japanese stock market and ETFs act as an efficient means of accessing the market.
Liquidity in the ETF market is made up of onscreen and OTC trading. The major players in onscreen trading include individuals and offshore investors. Most domestic institutions will primarily trade OTC.
Some 85% of the total assets on the Tokyo Stock Exchange are ETFs with TOPIX and Nikkei 225 as the underlying indices. The Nikkei 225 has traditionally been more retail focused and the index itself is geared toward mid/large cap stocks. In contrast, the TOPIX index has more of an institutional following and is a much broader market index with a very large amount of constituents. Indices such as the MSCI Japan tend to be more popular amongst European investors.
It is worth mentioning that, while the MSCI Japan is highly correlated with the TOPIX, its index has less small-cap exposure and can therefore be seen as less representative of the broader Japanese market.
There is currently growing development into other areas of the ETF market. For example, the emergence of high-yielding products such as REIT ETFs and ETFs weighted toward higher dividend-paying stocks have seen rising demand in the current market environment. In addition, there are a variety of smart beta products emerging.
The JPX-Nikkei 400 index is a strategic beta index that was introduced in 2014. The index combines quantitative and qualitative factors onto a wide universe of companies screened for quality and liquidity. It provides exposure to Japanese companies with efficient capital management policies, managed in an investor-orientated manner. The idea of the index is to hold the most shareholder-friendly companies. To some in Japan it is known as the 'shame index'. Its nickname has gained traction as companies not included during constituent reviews or those that are removed from the index receive a lot of public pressure to improve for example from the media.
Japanese-domiciled ETFs have been popular for a number of reasons. Putting aside the fact they have high trading volumes and are highly liquid, one of the most significant advantages of being locally domiciled is the fact that the ETF trades when the underlying market is open. As you can see from figure 4, market open hours between western and eastern markets rarely cross over and this creates a lack of price transparency and liquidity for non-Japan-domiciled products.
Prices of western-domiciled ETFs such as those listed on the New York and London Stock Exchanges deviate much further from their i-NAVs, demonstrating the benefits of underlying market liquidity and trading while the market is open. Thus, a locally domiciled ETF leads to enhanced tracking and decreases any tracking error through price discovery mechanisms.
While there are many passive options to access the Japanese stock market, western ETFs such as UCITS tend to be more expensive with wider spreads while Japanese-domiciled ETFs can offer tax advantages for tax-exempt investors over some non-Japan domiciled equivalents.1

The Quest for the Perfect Cover
When a magazine's cover "worked," we can never determine for sure exactly what worked. Was it the photo? Was it the subject of the cover story? Was it the big type run in process yellow? Surveys can be taken, focus groups convened, but experience teaches that you can't escape flying by the seat of your pants. That's another way of saying that we depend on the editor's gut feeling. I was one of the judges awarding "best cover" medals in an intramural competition at a publishing company large enough to warrant such an act. The company's owner—who ought to know given his company's output—told me that the only factor he could be sure of is the coquettish, come-hither look in the model's eyes. (That is a somewhat frustrating criterion if your product doesn't deal with that kind of subject.) Here are four cover stories to illustrate the complexity of the problem.
1. One cover stands out vividly from the thousands in my half century of magazine-ing. They were refurbishing the newsstand in the Stockholm airport terminal, so their magazines were spread out on the sidewalk. The standout was greenish all over: in the picture, the logo, the type, the coverlines. It was the Swedish Golf Digest, so its greenness was perfect for its subject. The cover carried all the usual elements, but they were blended by the color, and that simplicity popped it out from its surrounding, gaudy competition. Less is more, but can you imagine the arguments before they agreed to go with it?
2. In the late '90s, there was a period of intense competition among three women's general-interest weeklies in Norway. One of them decided to abandon fashionable elegance and do some hard-selling by covering the cover with as many pictorial and verbal appeals as they could squeeze in, using every color (especially process yellow), typeface, angle, overlap, silhouetting, shadow and trick. The startling difference created enormous curiosity, and their sales skyrocketed. The other two quickly latched onto the technique in their own variations, and after a few issues, the only way to tell them apart was to decipher the logos.

From Peter Tonguette's review of Friedkin's The Hunted for The Film Journal —
"Friedkin is a master of spaces and locales. His masterpiece, Sorcerer (1977), takes three diverse locations — Israel, Paris, and New Jersey — and converges them into one: a remote South American village which the characters from the three places — and one other — are driven to in desperation, each fleeing their home and their pasts. In Sorcerer — which details their attempt to earn their way out by transporting volitale nitroglycerine out of the country — character and location are inseparable, just as the literal events of the story are determined by the places they occur in. Friedkin has an uncanny ability to weave the real details of a place into the story: witness the famous above ground car-chase in The French Connection, a brilliant piece of cinematic montage made possible only by the existing infrastructure of New York City."

Congratulations!!! to Bethanie for scoring a 291 (300=Perfect score) on her USMC PFT last night. Just four weeks ago she took this same test and scored a 267. We are all so very proud of you! Your dedication and hard work is inspiring girl!!
One of the pillars of CrossFit is functionality…. everything we do carries over to other daily activities in some way.
Back squat – This is one of (if not "The") single most-important total-body exercise. The hormonal response generated by the back squat's heavy loading, vast muscle recruitment, and long range of motion impart a broad systemic benefit. Back squats dramatically strengthen the legs and back for all applications and indirectly increase the effectiveness of all other muscle-building exercises.
Shoulder Press – Perhaps the single most useful upper-body exercise. Putting a box on a high shelf is a press. Anything held by the arms at or above the level of the shoulders becomes easier as the press gets stronger.
Deadlift – Have you ever picked something up off of the ground? Perhaps a bag of dog food, or a moving box or a small child….. That's a deadlift. Doing them properly builds total-body strength along with training for safe heavy (and light!) lifting.
Back squat, 1 rep
Shoulder Press, 1 rep
Deadlift, 1 rep

We are waiting and waiting for our OUV-assessment. It's really frustrating having a ready to go airplane and waiting for the bureaucracy. Meanwhile I am doing minor things, which where originally planned after the first start. Today I fabricated a fairing for the left wheel. As suggested by other builders I used Lexan (or the […]Continue Reading... Comments Off on Waiting and Waiting for the OUV – Gear Fairings
Today we finished the landing gear! The final covering will be done later, when painting.Continue Reading... No Comments.
This picture shows the brakes installed. My kit came with brakes from Matco.Continue Reading... No Comments.
I used this rope as intermediate bungees. Will be replace before the first start by real bungees.Continue Reading... No Comments.
An impressive achievement today: The Rebel is standing on his own legs. Landing gear is installed.Continue Reading... No Comments.
Today we did the (hopefully) final mounting of the landing gear. It looks great. Tomorrow the next tire and then the Rebel is ready for the first excurstion outside the garage.Continue Reading... No Comments.
After some consideration, I decided to put inspection holes into the fuselage bottom. Thus the AN5 bolts in the carrythroughs may be accessed from outside. Just in case I need to remove also the cross section ("X") of the landing gear. Hole size is 2 1/4 ". The enlarged hole in […]Continue Reading... No Comments.
Today I mounted the tires on the rims. This was one of the sometimes occuring tasks that take much longer than expected. The Dico tire of my kit did not really sit correctly on the rim. This was one of the problems various builder on the rebel builder list reported on. Polishing the rim […]Continue Reading... No Comments.
With the experience from the left side, the right gear was a straightforward task. Drilling the axle with the stainless steel drills was easy this time.Continue Reading... No Comments.

This shows the safety cable for the landing gear, put inside the tubes. The first time I made a nicopress connection. It worked ok with the cheap swaging tool I have.Continue Reading... No Comments.
All parts for the tailwheel installation are done. One final thing is to tighten all bolts. The bolts where missing. I need to order the bolts and have to wait.Continue Reading... No Comments.
This is a spacer (from Delrin) to fix the tailwheel spring. Since I added a doubler (FUS-30) at the tailwheel position, the AN6 bolt is short and a longer one to be installed.Continue Reading... No Comments.
The tail wheel delivered with my kit is permanently connected, there is no handle to disconnect it from rudder during moving the fuselage. To overcome this I plan to build a small "moving platform" to put under the tail wheel.Continue Reading... No Comments.
First part of landing gear installed. Thats all I can do for now. I have to wait for some parts to be delivered from Aircraft Spruce. It's hard to get inch sized bolts and drills here in Europe. Spruce delivering from US is the best source, but it takes some time.Continue Reading... No Comments.
To prepare installing the landing gear, I removed the construction table and fixed the fuselage on the ceiling of the garage. Looks cool. Probably the first "flying feeling" for the fuselage.Continue Reading... No Comments.
This was hard work: Drilling two holes in the axle (in the alu block) needed approximately 10 drills. Being used to aluminum this is a different experience. In the end HSS-CO drills (for stainless steel) worked well and achieved the break through. These hole will be enlarged to 5/16″ .Continue Reading... No Comments.

Okay, need to be fast, time is not on my side.We got locked out of our house last week. Well, we tried to break into the house. And I learned that, well, good luck anyone smaller then me who wants to bash his way through the door of the house, cause all I did was hurt my shoulder. I mean dang, that door is tough. Anyway, they had to send someone to remove the lock, and so now we have a new lock and we are back in our house. But still it was an interesting experience.

Spring 2010 Ready-to-WearMaison Margiela
What on earth is happening to the Maison Martin Margiela? No one within the house has ever broken the code of omerta that forbids the utterance of inside information, but from the look of the collection—and the aghast expressions on the faces of the formerly avid consumers who lined the bleachers to watch it—it's nothing very good. The subject of whether or not the founder is still at the helm may be shrouded in mystery, but this much can be said: What was sent out for Spring was such a stuttering, ill-sequenced pastiche of the rigorous, witty, avant-garde thinking that used to stream out here that it is almost unkind to enumerate the ways in which it disappointed.
The press release announced that this collection was an investigation of "volume and texture" (but aren't they all?). In brief, the texture was paper and synthetic foil; the volume, various experiments in adding frontal attachments to jackets and extensions to the hind quarters of cutaway chaps. There was a lot going on with bodysuits and baggy scrunched-down boots, which at certain points involved trailing tapes. That was followed by an apparently random sequence of hyperreal tropical-scene photo prints—they looked like a genuinely bad-taste echo of Miuccia Prada's deliberately kitsch prints of the same sort of subject matter.

Health and safetyMay 9, 2017
Earthquakes are part and parcel of life and business in New Zealand, so it is essential that employers develop and implement an earthquake action plan, and communicate this with staff so that if disaster strikes, employees know exactly what to do.
Here is a simple checklist of actions from Worksafe NZ's website.
During the earthquake
After the earthquake, if the building is damaged
Print and post these around the office and make sure that every employee is familiar with the action steps.
Crucial contacts
Employers must also be ready with the contact numbers and information at hand when needed. Complete this list from Worksafe NZ and again post around the office to be ready.
As always, we are on hand to help you with any questions. If you require advice regarding health and safety obligations and procedures, contact an Employsure specialist on 0800 675 700.
Also, make sure that you have some way of tracking who is your office at any time, staff and visitors, so that you can easily check on the safety of everyone on the premises.
If you have a question that you would like an Employsure specialist to answer in next month's newsletter, please send it to [email protected].

Naby Keita stars in RB Leipzig victory over Hamburg
Naby Keita put in a fine performance for RB Leipzig in their 2-0 win over Hamburg in Friday's Bundesliga game.
The midfielder put in a great shift in the middle of the park and put the visitors ahead seven minutes after the hour mark after Marcel Sabitzer's pass found him at the edge of the box.
And with fifteen minutes left to full-time Timo Werner doubled the Red Bulls advantage. After Kevin Kampl slotted in a beautiful pass to the German forward who calmly slotted the ball past an onrushing Mathenia.
Editors' Picks
Ralph Hassenhuttl's side currently sits third on the German top flight log having taken six points from three games played so far, and will next host Borussia Monchengladbach on September 16.
The Guinea international will be heading to Anfield to join Liverpool next summer after a deal had been agreed with the German top flight club.

In Case of Emergency: How to Set Up Medical ID on Your iPhone Now
Statistically speaking, you're probably reading this on your smartphone. It goes everywhere with you. You care for it, put it in a case, keep it topped up with power, and it even sits by your side all night long.
Wouldn't it be great if your iPhone could take care of you too? It's not just a nice idea; it's a feature built into iOS. Set up Medical ID today, and you can rest a little easier knowing any vital medical information and next of kin details are just a few taps away.
Let's have a look at this potentially life-saving feature, and how to set it up on your own iPhone.
What Is Medical ID?
Medical ID is a safety feature built into your iPhone which can inform others of important medical information in the event of an emergency. You can store the following information in your Medical ID, which is viewable by anyone who knows how to access it:
- Your name, Apple ID picture, and date of birth.
- Known medical conditions (for example, asthma).
- Relevant medical notes relating to conditions (for example, any metal pins from past surgery).
- Known allergies and reactions.
- Any medication you are currently taking.
- Your blood type and organ donor status.
- Your weight and height.
- An emergency contact of your choosing.
Keep in mind that there's no way of limiting this information to strictly emergency personnel. Anyone with physical access to your iPhone Stop Siri & Notification Center Giving Away Your iPhone Secrets Leaving your iPhone on the table while you go to the bar is okay if it's locked, right? After all, your mates can't access information or post slanderous messages on Facebook... right? Read More can find your Medical ID if they're looking for it. This does raise some potential privacy concerns, but it's a trade you'll have to make if you want to use the feature.
Do Paramedics Check Medical ID?
Findings suggest that many paramedics and emergency responders do check for Medical ID. However, many others are unaware of the feature's existence. Considering the feature was added to the iPhone in 2014 with iOS 8, it's likely that awareness has grown among medical professionals over the past few years.
One Redditor posed this question to the /r/apple community in 2015, with a mixed bag of results. One trauma nurse and another paramedic confirmed that they've used it to great effect. Others either didn't find the information useful, or didn't know how to access it. Some were frustrated that not enough people make use of the feature.
One respondent on Quora noted: "When it's at that point where an individual can't provide any info it's too late to be digging around the pocket for a phone. We resort to our own step by step assessment and procede [sic] with the appropriate treatment. We don't always need to know what your past medical history is to treat the emergency."
It's increasingly likely that paramedics will receive exposure to the feature as part of their standard training. Yet it seems like more needs done to ensure that people are creating a Medical ID, and that emergency responders are trained to access the information.
Setting Up Your Medical ID
You can create your Medical ID by launching the Health app and tapping on the Medical ID tab. You can also head to Contacts, tap your name at the top, and tap Create Medical ID at the bottom. Use the Edit button to add, remove, or change any information, then hit Done to save your changes.
Important: For your Medical ID to be useful, you'll want to enable the Show When Locked option on this screen. This will enable others to access the feature without unlocking your iPhone first.
You can add as much information as you like to the various fields, but keep in mind the privacy implications of the information you share. Your date of birth, name, and picture can be used to positively ID you. Any emergency contacts you nominate will have their phone number displayed, and whoever has your phone can call them.
When you use the Emergency SOS shortcut (instructions below) and proceed with an emergency call, iOS will send a map of your current location to any emergency contacts listed in this field.
How to Access Medical ID on an iPhone
To access your (or anyone else's) Medical ID, use one of the following methods:
- Tap the side/power button five times to activate Emergency SOS until you see three sliders appear on screen, then choose Medical ID.
- On the Lock Screen tap Emergency then Medical ID.
Despite this information being easily accessible to those who know how, no other apps can access your Medical ID.
How to Access Medical ID on an Apple Watch
As of watchOS 3, the Apple Watch is both an emergency call button and a medical ID bracelet. When you press and hold the side button, you'll see the Emergency SOS feature. This is where you'll find the information listed in your Medical ID.
Considering many emergency responders are trained to look for a medical bracelet for clues about any existing conditions like diabetes or epilepsy, the Apple Watch might be better than your iPhone for this purpose. The feature has only been a part of the Watch for around two years, so first responders may not yet be familiar with it.
If you keep holding the button, you'll connect to emergency services (your watch will detect and call the right number, regardless of where you are). Your Watch will then send your location to any emergency contacts listed in Medical ID.
Medical ID: A Feature You'll Hopefully Never Need
Most of us probably won't ever have any use for Medical ID, but that doesn't mean it's not worth taking five minutes out of your day to set it up. If you're OK with divulging some potentially life-saving information, Medical ID could really help emergency personnel deliver a higher standard of care in an emergency.

You can watch the video recording of this presentation here.
Sandy covers an eclectic range of subjects at Sheffield Hallam (SHU), with each usergroup having different needs and requirements.
SHU library home page has the Summon search box and links to LibGuides subject guides.
I'll add a link in here to Sandy's slides, but he's covering how teaching is tailored to the different subject areas, e.g. Art & Design students are much more "hands on" and like to handle materials.
Sandy's looking forward to the Topic Explorer pane in Summon 2.0 and the move to discipline facets.
Summon requires very little teaching, even to supposedly "non-techie" groups of students. Sandy has found that students share and help each other.
Journals dominate the results and provides an excellent opportunity to introduce them to 1st yr students, even though they maybe won't really need them until 2nd or 3rd yr.
Summon provides a great introduction to other databases and provides a good way of highlighting the strengths and weaknesses.


text: Last week, our marketing team here at UC Davis Conference and Event Services were able to sample some of the great products presented us by O'Bon, and what great green products they have to offer! We sampled some of the numerous pencil and notepads that are made up of 100% recycled material. The pencils are quite sturdy and seem to last longer and stay better protected than regular wooden pencils, and the notepads are just as great as any notepad out there; however, these notepads being green, have a little bit of a leg up for being environmentally friendly! We'd like to encourage all of those in the community to try out O'Bon products as they are a great substitute to many products that you make already have! Don't forget to use a promotional code for 15% when purchasing online, just enter freakofriends in the promotional code field. Hope you all give O'Bon
