India seem to have accepted that they made an error when they played a second spinner in Kuldeep Yadav at Lord's in dank, overcast conditions last week.
Kuldeep and R Ashwin went wicketless as Jonny Bairstow and Chris Woakes took advantage of the only dry day in the match to flatten India's resolve after they were bowled out in virtually one session for 107.
After India's training session in Nottingham on Thursday, Ravi Shastri, the India head coach, said of the decision to play Kuldeep: "In hindsight, it was an error. Seeing the conditions, we could have gone with an extra seamer. That might have helped."
But, just like India captain Virat Kohli, Shastri tried to defend the move. "Then again, you didn't know how much it would rain," he said. "Whether a match could go into the final day where, just in case a spinner is needed and the ball started to turn, would we have needed him? But in hindsight, the way things panned out, the amount it rained, the amount of time we lost, a seamer could have been a better option."
Shastri isn't one to brood too long, though. He has clearly moved on, the priority now being rejuvenating India's batting after the miserable failures in the face of the swing and seam unleashed by James Anderson and Co. Kohli aside, none of the India batsmen have shown the resolve or the nous to find a way out. No specialist India batsmen has even made a fifty across four innings apart from Kohli. The only other resolve has come from the lower-middle order - Hardik Pandya and Ashwin, second and third on India's batting charts in terms of runs.
Apart from the 50-run stand M Vijay and Shikhar Dhawan put on in India's first innings in the first Test, the openers have failed to find the answers. Even the experienced Ajinkya Rahane and Cheteshwar Pujara have struggled. Rahane, who has the best average overseas among this lot, has fallen away after solid starts, out caught in the slips in all four innings. Questions persist over his form, but Rahane has Shastri's full support it seems.
"He is one of our pillars, he will remain one of our pillars," Shastri said. But if the batting unit is to bounce back, he said, the batsmen have to show mental strength. "Conditions have been tough, as you have seen right through this series. But that's where character comes into play and mental discipline comes into play. The resolve to know where your off stump is, to leave a lot of balls, to be prepared to look ugly and dirty and show some grit [is needed]."

He likes to collect items left lying around the house and hides them in his bed, but if left alone he has been know to chew said items, however he is still young and will benefit from training.

Making Connections
The past few weeks we have been talking about using our "schema" to make connections. Schema includes things we know and experience that we can use to help us understand the story. There are 3 types of connections we focused on:
Text to Self
Text to Text
Text to World
Today, Students were able to make a Text to Text connection using the books Little Oink and Little Hoot by Amy Krouse Rosenthal. We found quite a few similarities between the books.
Some students made Text to Self connections by connecting with the characters with these books as well.
Yesterday we practiced making Text to Self connections using the book Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day by Judith Viorst. In groups we wrote "This book reminds me of...because..." to help us make connections that are meaningful to our reading.

Genre: Flash Fiction
Whenever I would see my darling Jennifer
Naked and in bed, I would fly into her
Bedroom and attempt to offer a gesture
Of love only to go through that one pure
Beauty like there is nothing left of her.
I tried to touch her face suck each tit
But that idea makes me end up with shit
On my face because I always go right
Through her and am afraid that fright
Would appear and I am the cause of it.
You know, I really do wish that I am alive
Again in order to let myself take a big strive
And fuck the moist and soaking wet pussy
Of one who had been my beloved missy
Just like back when I was Twenty Five.
But no matter how many times I let
Myself try, I am always unable to get
That wish of mine to come true and
Be reunited with the love so grand
Instead of feeling like a broken dish set.
Well, I have no choice but to make the most
Of being nothing more than just a ghost
Even though I still am unwilling to part
With the one whose love filled my heart.

The Support Documents, produced by the BestVET project, provide working theories, models, examples and templates that can be used by VET institutions (and other workplace or work-based learning providers) looking to implement one or more quality management and development systems from among those already identified as best practice within the higher education sector. The particular focus for BestVET was on mentoring for professional development and the use of learning contracts/learning outcomes and learning management systems (LMS). In addition to producing a Process Map and Guide [separately referenced in the Toolkit] that addresses each of these core themes, practical materials were developed to support those just beginning with the testing or implementation of one or more of these important learning management actions.
The Process Map and Guide, and related Support Documents, centre on piloting and implementation of the 'BestVET Total Development System' within a VET (or other learning-oriented) institution. The proposed models, tools and approaches have each been proven as worthwhile within the higher education sector and, more recently by BestVET, within the VET sector. The mentoring approach, and the use of learning contracts (and learning outcomes), are each equally relevant to companies and others providing workplace or work-based learning opportunities. The use of a learning management system is also wholly relevant to those responsible for learning management within any body or institution. BestVET Support Documents should be used in-tandem with the BestVET Process Map and Guide, which the former fully aligned the different chapters of the Guide (mentoring, learning contracts, LMS, implementation) and presented in the form of working theories, models, examples and templates.

Last Friday, Renata and I attended a screening of "Undertow," a brave Peruvian film (directed by Javier Fuentes-Limon) about a bisexual love triangle in a remote fishing village in South America. The story opens as Miguel (Cristian Mercado), a married fisherman with an expectant wife (Tatiana Astengo), is summoned to help with the preparations for the funeral of a family relative. His job is to dedicate the body and soul of the deceased to God before a burial at sea – a tradition the villagers follow so the soul will be able to rest in peace.
As the ceremony is under way, we notice that the hearse is being closely followed by Santiago (Manolo Cardona), a painter who moved to the village to find inspiration for his art. He photographs everything he sees, and this clearly disturbs the villagers (though they don't do anything about it), for this stranger is rumored to be a homosexual – a giant taboo for these macho, churchgoing workers.
But Miguel is leading a double life – he is secretly having a torrid affair with Santiago, but insists in keeping it under wraps. Santiago cannot take pictures of him or paint pictures of him, for he sees himself as a straight man with a weakness. When Santiago suddenly drowns (an event that is kept off-screen), Miguel is constantly visited by his ghost, which only he can see, hear and (incredibly) touch.
Santiago's soul is unable to rest until his body is found and dedicated. As Miguel searches for the remains in the ocean, he resumes his affair – since his lover is invisible, he can enjoy living his everyday life while being with Santiago all times of day without raising any suspicion. But a twist in the storyline threatens to expose who Miguel really is, and then decisions have to be made.
I thought Undertow was a great film that explores the conflicts of living in a macho-dominated society and the pain that a man feels for being uncomfortable with his own sexual desire. On the outside, Miguel is a leader in his community, a relatively good husband and an active participant in his Catholic community. But on the inside, he is in love with a man – and is terrified to admit it even to himself.
I would recommend this film to any audience that can keep an open mind. For the squeamish ones, let me tell you that there are no directly explicit scenes – the lovers embrace naked but all you see is their butts, and the only moment of frontal nudity is seen from a distance. I hope this film can find a good audience – it is not simply a gay story, but the story of a man in desperate need of finding his own soul.

1) clorox (can't speak to windex) will kill both good and bad germs. 2) vaseline probs not so good… try neosporin. 3) we can be bandaged together at 85th, I'm still nursing a brun form like 2 weeks ago…
This was my plan for tonight's run: warm up, 4 miles tempo pace (around 7:45/mile), 1 more mile at a 7:25 pace, cool down. Blood sugar was 150 at the start, Florence and the Machine on shuffle, YAY all around.
This is what actually happened:
The first 2 miles were mostly YAY all around. Flo serenading me, big yellow moon in the sky, running at what felt like just the right effort level even though I couldn't really tell what pace I was going at (silly Caro, going without the Garmin). My Dexcom started having a freakout before I left, showing that I was almost 100 mg/dl higher than my meter and going double arrows up, so at some point it buzzed at me and I dismissed its wildly inaccurate freakout to keep running.
But then, halfway through, I was skipping along in the dark when– kaBOOM– my foot caught on an uneven patch of sidewalk. I let out an "ah ah AH!" as I went down, as if I were about to sneeze instead of faceplant. And then, splat.
My first thought was, "HNNNNNNGARRRLLLLHHHH."
My second thought was, "Oh shit, did anyone see me?"
Apparently not, a quick look around yielded an empty sidewalk and minimal embarrassment. I tried to pause Florence from perkily singing "Dog Days Are Over," and saw the blood smeared all over my iPod. And my hands. And my knuckles. And oh crap, my– face?
At that point I tried to stand up and collect myself, until I realized that the wind was completely knocked out of me and I could barely stop gasping for breath. So there I was, sitting on the sidewalk on the side of Prospect Park where they do drug deals, huffing and puffing like I had just given birth to a hippopotamus. It's a really good thing no one was there to see me.
Okay, self, I thought. Okay. Breathe. Stand up. Wow, I didn't realize blood was that….red. Okay. Find a bathroom. O…kay.
Thank God that I walked just a few blocks before finding the Prospect Park tennis courts, because with the shock of falling and the 28-degree temps, my hands felt like they were going to vibrate off. I pushed open the door with an elbow and stood waiting for the sole unisex bathroom. Trying to look as casual and non-Charles-Dahmer as possible with blood all over my hands and my various accessories shoved in my armpits.
I slipped into the bathroom as the Rafa wannabe walked out, hoping he didn't notice the blood smeared on my face. I nudged the faucet on and screamed as the water hit my open wounds. So much for casual and inconspicuous.
And then, as if screaming weren't enough, it was at that precise moment that my Dexcom started to alarm. Not just your normal bzz-bzz high or low alarm. No, this was all-out, pentatonic scale, BZZ-BEEP-BEEP-BEEP freaking out. While it was stuck in my left armpit.
Somehow, I managed to dab some soap on my hands, rinse them off, and then turn around to drop the Dex receiver on the floor, pitifully dry myself off with the air dryer, and then push the OK button with my pinky. To be greeted with this:
And on top of that, I smeared blood on my Dexcom because my hands had started bleeding all over again.
I exited the bathroom after someone politely knocked three times and I figured I couldn't fashion a tourniquet out of toilet paper. There was a guy outside holding a clipboard, pointing at people, and barking, "You, court number one! You, court number three! You two, take court number six!" I went over to him and asked, "Um….do you work here?"
"Sort of, " he said. "What's up?"
I held out my hands, blood still oozing from the gashes on my palms. I was like stigmata in spandex.
"Oh my God!" the man exclaimed. "Yes! I work here enough to know where the first aid stuff is! Come with me."
So he led me back to the kitchen area, and told me to wash off with hot water while he found some antiseptic. Except….the only sink was part of the industrial-strength dishwasher. It didn't have a faucet, it had a hose. Somehow, I managed to subject my wounds to this all over again without screaming. The man came bounding back in the kitchen.
"Here!" he said. "Dry your hands off, and then use these."
He set down a box of Clorox wipes in front of me.
"Clorox?" I asked.
"Yeah!" he replied. "It will disinfect everything."
"But isn't it for…..your kitchen counter?" I AM NOT AN APPLIANCE, BUDDY.
He laughed and clapped me on the shoulder. "It is! It is! But it says it disinfects surfaces. You don't want those to get infected, do you?"
"I mean, no," I said. At that point, I figured that there was little point in arguing. Besides, the last time I took a major spill, I wiped myself down with Windex and lived to tell the tale. So I took a Clorox wipe and gingerly patted myself down. I would never wish upon a kitchen counter the stinging pain I felt in cleaning everything off.
"Okay, now hold your arm up while I find some Band-Aids," the man said. I sat, waiting, for several minutes. Just as the numbness was starting to radiate up to my elbows, he returned. "Jesus Christ, you can't get a first aid kit around here," he declared. "But lucky for you, I cut myself this morning and brought a couple of extra bandaids. Here, hold out your arm."
No First Aid kit?! He must have seen the worried look on my face, because the man burst out laughing and said, "It's okay, swetheart. Nobody's gotten a hemorrhage here!"
He taped up my left hand.
"Yet, anyways," he added.
"….I would knock on wood, but I'm sort of indisposed right now."
"That you are," he agreed. "Lemme do your right hand."
"So what do you mean when you say you sort of work here?" I asked as he taped on his last Band-Aid.
"Well, I organize the singles tennis league. Just singles! I would never do doubles, oh God. That's too much work. Too much of my time. They send me schedules on my– whaddya call it?– my smartphone, my iPhone, and I can't even read them! But maybe that's just the phone." He grabbed my hands, took a look, and then gave them a pat. "So, whenever these heal up, come down and play singles tennis. Not doubles. Singles. You got that?"
"Right. Right," I said, gathering up my stuff and distributing it under my armpits once more. "I'm more of a runner, but–"
"Well, you'll kill yourself if you keep up like this!" the man shouted. "Tennis classes start in two weeks. Come on down. Now, do yourself a favor, take a cab home, and put some Vaseline on those…wounds."
"Vaseline?" I asked.
"Yeah!" he said. "To cover up the wounds. So that they don't get infected."
"…Right," I said once more. "Thanks very much for your help, but no cab for me. I have to finish running."
And finish I did. Not only did I finish the run, but I managed to hit the last two miles at a 7:00 pace.
Maybe stigmata makes you faster?

New Year, New Start
written by Tabby and Sugarberry
Tiffany fluttered her wings in agitation as she finally reached the high-class hotel where she was expected. She had been in such a rush to make it on time that she had flown part of the way. Of course, she would not have been so pressed for time had she not run across that sad little baby pony on the street.
But she truly didn�t want to be late for this occasion, a celebrity auction of which she had been invited to be co-host. The proceeds would go to Helping Hoof, Tiffany�s favorite charity that benefitted needy baby ponies. Tiffany was determined to urge the bidding as high as she could to ensure the foundation received a sizable sum.
Tiffany rushed past all the glamorous ponies gathered in the hotel to make her way to the staging area. In the past, she would have been sure to stop and take careful note of all the styles being displayed and determine how to incorporate the newest fads into her own look. But since last Christmas, her life of frivolities had changed to a life of service, aiding those less fortunate than herself, particularly baby ponies. Now she lived solely for the purpose of raising more and more funds to donate to charitable organizations. There was no end to Tiffany�s abundant desire to make life pleasant for all baby ponies the world over.
Backstage of the huge auditorium in which the auction would be held, Tiffany impatiently waited for the stagehands to finish powdering her face. Looking good on camera simply had no appeal to her any longer, not when there were baby ponies in need.
Before she knew it, the signal for Tiffany to go on stage came. She looked around for Clare, who was co-hosting the event, but she didn�t notice the Italian mare anywhere. There was no time to worry about that, though, as it was time for the show to begin. Tiffany stepped out from behind the curtain, blinking in the intense lights focused on her. Then she looked towards the spot where Clare was supposed to be. She hastily suppressed a gasp as she saw who was there instead. Why, what was
doing here? It was none other than her alienated ex-fianc�, Guido Casale!
If Guido was a little taken aback himself, he didn�t let it show for long. He proceeded to stroll forward and take Tiffany�s hoof in his as the opening strains of music began.
Tiffany smiled tentatively at him before turning her attention back to prospective bidders. �Welcome to the first ever celebrity auction, sponsored by Clare�s Creations in Vulcanopolis,� she started off a bit tremulously as the presence of Guido still had her unnerved. �We have a lot of lovely items here tonight from the households of famous stars. And all proceeds will benefit Helping Hoof. And now Guido... Mr. Casale... will explain to you in detail the bidding process.� Tiffany flashed a dazzling smile at the glamorous ponies before stepping aside to give Guido center stage. She tried to control the rapid beating of her heart while Guido went on to elaborate on how to bid, forms of payment, and the like.
Then the auction began. An attendant rolled out a cart with the first item on it. Guido pulled back the sheet that covered it and announced the treasure: �Up first we have this lovely shawl worn by Golden Sundrop for her starring role in
. The beaded fringe is composed of genuine amethysts and garnets. Bidding starts at five hundred jangles!�
Tiffany was a little disappointed that the shawl went for only one thousand two hundred jangles. Why, she could have given the foundation more out of her weekly allowance! Well, there were still many more items...
For the second item, Tiffany was given the honor of showcasing it. Agitated by Guido�s presence at her side, the princess wasn�t quite as detailed in her description as she would have been otherwise. �This is the thing... from that movie... with the guy...� she stammered nervously. �You know the one I�m talking about...�
But jewels spoke louder than words anyway, so the diamond ring brought five thousand jangles. Tiffany was more pleased with that amount.
More often than not, Guido had to help Tiffany out with the announcements; the white pegasus made an admirable but flustered assistant, describing items with lines like �The hoof... I mean the nail... the hoofnail... no, the hoofnail clipper, of Havershaw!� and �The horseshoe, from the guy, with the hooves!�
After many long hours Tiffany felt like her big smile had been permanently plastered on her face. But finally the last treasure was unveiled for bidding. It was a stylin� cart that had been featured extensively in the popular film,
�Wow! What an amazing machine!� Guido marveled for the benefit of the audience. �This is the chance of a lifetime, ladies and gentlemen, to own a cart driven by Whirl Wind! Bidding starts at ten thousand!!�
Tension was in the air as bidders fought over the
piece de resistence
. The price soared from one hundred thousand, to eight hundred thousand, to one million.
Guido banged down the decorative gavel at his disposal. �SOLD! For five million jangles!�
Groans broke out from the audience as their chance of owning the incomparable cart was extinguished, but almost everyone remained for Tiffany�s next announcement: �Thank you so much for taking part!!! Because of you, the Helping Hoof Foundation will be given nearly three billion jangles. This will be a tremendous aid to countless baby ponies all over the world!! What a truly special Christmas present this will be!! Thank you from the bottom of my... our... hearts!�
Clapping and cheers broke out for ths incredible accomplishment. Guido then went on to invite all participants to attend a formal ball being held in the adjoining room, and everyone gravitated there to join in the festivities.
Due to the nature of the auction, Tiffany and Guido had not had the time to say anything personal to each other. But, as host and hostess of the event, they were obliged to start the first dance.
Tiffany was nervous; Guido seemed very personable and charming towards her, but was that just a facade for the benefit of the participants? She knew he didn�t think very highly of her because of her former frivolous lifestyle. Tiffany sighed wistfully as he led her out onto the dance floor. This was so much like the old days, when she was his guest in Vulcanopolis. They had attended countless parties and balls together; and he had always held her so close, and looked at her so adoringly...
Lost in her thoughts, Tiffany missed a step and almost trampled Guido�s hoof. Oh dear, that was no way to make a good impression on him! But blushing, she met his gaze, and he only smiled at her discomfiture.
Soon enough the dance ended, and Tiffany was half-grateful, half-disappointed, when Guido released his hold on her. The rest of the night was spent primarily at his side, chatting with various guests; but there was no time for private conversation, so Tiffany could only guess what Guido was thinking. It probably disgusted him to be in her company like this, Tiffany thought despondently. He was a very good actor, though...
In the small hours of the morning, the party finally began to break up and the ballroom became sparsely populated. Inevitably, Guido shook hooves with- and Tiffany smiled at- the last guest. And then the two were alone with each other.
�It was a lovely night,� Tiffany said a little breathlessly, articulating the first inane comment that came into her head. �It was such a- such a surprise to see you here.�
�And was it a pleasant surprise?� Guido prodded.
�Oh, yes, of course!� Tiffany burst out without thinking. �I mean... naturally. You were an excellent host. But, just out of curiosity, why was there a change of plans? The last I had heard Clare would be co-hosting with me.�
�Calla came down with a bad cold, so she didn�t want to leave Vulcanopolis,� Guido explained. �She came to me for help and of course I offered to take her place.�
�That was very kind of you,� Tiffany stated.
�Not at all... actually, it was pure selfishness on my part.�
Tiffany looked at him inquiringly. �Selfishness? I don�t understand.�
�Why, I wanted to chance to see you again. Not your photo in the newspaper or on television, but in person.�
�But... why?�
Guido chuckled and took her hoof in his. �Do you think your company is that undesirable, Tiffany?�
�I thought you wouldn�t even want to see me again, after...� Tiffany looked down at the floor and trailed off into silence. It didn�t need to be said what occasion Tiffany was referring to. They both knew it was the night before their intended wedding, two years ago, when they had had their big falling out. Tiffany had told Guido that she was only marrying him for his money, and Guido had suddenly realized that fame and wealth weren�t everything. The next day, neither of them had shown up at church for the wedding.
�You�ve changed a lot since then, Tiffany. We both have.� Guido lapsed into contemplative silence. �When I first started hearing about all the volunteer work you were undertaking, I couldn�t believe it. I�m really impressed by your ambition.�
Tiffany blushed. �It�s nothing, really... it�s the least I could do for all the years I spent concentrating on myself. I was surprised by your contributions to charity, too. Though at first I thought you were quite mad to be giving all that money away.� She smiled a bit regretfully. �But I understand now. There�s more to life than parties and looking beautiful... much more. I�ve finally found my true purpose in life... and I have you to thank for it, though it took me awhile to change. There are so many ponies that need help, and I mean to help as many as I can. Tomorrow I�m speaking to the board of Master Mark Corporation to convince them to supply funding to the new Health Works charity, and on Saturday I�m helping with a fund-raiser for Food for Foals.� She smiled wryly. �Would you believe I passed up an invitation to a ball at Golden City so I could give some of my time at the orphanage?�
�Those are all very honorable causes, indeed,� Guido said gravely. �But sometimes I wonder if you miss the kind of life you had before.�
A tiny bit of regret flashed across Tiffany�s face, but she quickly suppressed it. �Oh no of course not! I�m so much happier helping others,� she declared bravely. Guido actually respected her now! Of course she wouldn�t admit that she wouldn�t mind attending a party once in awhile... and keeping on top of the latest styles... and spending the nights gossiping with her friends. If she let on to any of this he�d surely hate her again for being so shallow!
�I see,� said Guido. �I must say I�m a bit sorry, though, to see that the old Tiffany is so completely gone. Your fun-loving spirit was one of your most endearing qualities. I�m sure it wouldn�t hurt your standing as a ponitarian if you took a little bit of time for yourself.�
�You... you think so?� Tiffany said incredulously.
�Of course I think it�s wonderful what you�re doing, but you still have your own life to live,� Guido went on. �Maybe you took all this work to an extreme... I�d hate to think I had inadvertently caused such an engaging personality to lose herself so entirely to the world.�
�Oh,� said Tiffany, still not really believing her ears. �But- does this mean- oh, what
you trying to say!�
�I�m saying, Tiffany, that the love of my life doesn�t have to be so perfect... and though she�s a devoted helper of ponykind, she can still indulge in her own whims once in awhile... and yes, even allow herself to have fun!�
Sappy music keyed-up in the background as the two estranged lovers embraced and kissed.
�What! I thought all the musicians had gone!� Tiffany exclaimed, breaking away from Guido momentarily. �Do leave us in peace!� The lone musician skulked out of the ballroom and went on his way.
�But you musn�t make me wait through another tedious two-year engagement, darling,� Guido said, quickly slipping back into the familiarity they had previously enjoyed.
�Oh, no,� said Tiffany dreamily. �Another two years is much too long to wait. At the earliest possible convenience, naturally. But then there�s the old question, Dream Valley or Vulcanopolis?�
�How does an elopement sound?�
�Exceedingly convenient! But I�m afraid it will have to wait until next week. Previous engagements, you know.�
�My dear Tiffany, the point of an elopement is the spontaneity! When is your appointment tomorrow? Afternoon? Then that�s fine! We�ll leave for Vulcanopolis immediately, get married by special licence, and be back just in time. I�d even be willing to take a raincheck on the honeymoon for the sake of your work. What do you say?�
�I have always so admired your efficiency,� Tiffany sighed dreamily. �Very well, let�s do it!�
The End - or rather, The Beginning!

"Deep down, if we really accept that their lives – African lives – are equal to ours, we would all be doing more to put the fire out. Its an uncomfortable truth." – Jeffrey Sachs, The End of Poverty.
"When you are in a hole, the top priority is to stop digging." – William Easterly, The White Man's Burden
Chapter 10 talks about the debate on pros and cons of development aid with leading economists Jeffrey Sachs (Columbia University) and William Easterly (NYU) pitted against each other. Each side has valid points. After reading for a few weeks about the issue of ending poverty, what is your take on this debate. Which side do you take and why?
While Easterly and Sachs are positioned as quite opposite in their ideas regarding foreign aid, they are similar in that they are passionate about this topic and have focused much of their professional time on this area of study. Both have also struggled with the fundamental question of what it means to be poor in today's world. From the quotes above we can begin to unpack the different views that these economists hold.
Jefferey Sachs, whom I have written about previously in terms of the MDGs is the economist known for throwing money at the problem. Sachs was originally praised for his strategies and the Millennium Villages were supposed to be his shining beacon of success. However, he has been criticized for his project's lack of measurable success. As an economist and a researcher, Sachs must be able to produce data in order to gauge the progress of these villages. Sachs has been very influential in short term projects like helping curb the spread of Malaria in many African countries by providing mosquito nets. In terms of his long term projects like the Millennium Villages, however, he has been very defensive when it comes to admitting the project's faults. Critics believe that if these villages were to be replicated, it would result in a money pit with no real showable success.
On the other hand, Easterly is wary of foreign aid as it creates a culture of dependency. Easterly also argues that by providing aid to various countries with autocratic leaders, we entrust this autocrat to use foreign aid wisely when in fact it is used to keep poor people at the bottom as to keep them in power. Easterly also believes that there is a deep racism and prejudice against African nations which the West deem as helpless and therefore in need of Western aid. While Easterly's critiques are valid, he is criticized for offering no legitimate solutions. I think this critique is valid as well because it is easy to offer criticism of the Millennium Villages, for instance, but then you also need to provide your own solutions. At least Sachs was brave enough to put his plan into motion in the first place.
I definitely agree with Easterly in that I think Western values are often seen as correct and have been normalized around the world. These values often represent white values and remind me of many of the issues I have with aid given to the poor even in the United States. Often mission trips and money are given to certain causes so that individuals can pat themselves on the back and prove that they have somehow made a difference when in fact no long-term goal was even created. Many mission trips have this same attitude. They go for a week and the next week a different group arrives and nothing ever gets truly finished because each group has slightly different ideas and goals. This idea can be generalized when we talk about foreign aid as well.
While I think both Sachs and Easterly are extraordinarily intelligent and both are qualified to give ideas and criticisms, I also believe that other people need to be involved in the conversation as well. As white men, these men carry around a large amount of privilege and I think this needs to be challenged. We need to have coalitions made up of African people in these villages. Even though they may not have degrees, they can still understand the basic premise of human rights and know what they need in order to survive. I think that sometimes this debate becomes too theoretical and loses its humanity and this becomes the biggest issue. Data and numbers are obviously very important when it comes to measuring success, but numbers also don't matter if the individuals don't feel happier or like their quality of life has improved.
Check out Laura Poitras new website https://fieldofvision.org/ – is her vision a tool to address global issues? How do you think people can be and should be reached about global issues?
Last year, I attended the premiere screening of Concerned Student 1950, so I was aware of the work that Field of Vision supported, but I had not seen any of the other documentaries on the website. After poking around the website, I decided to watch The Black Belt which raised the question of whether Alabama closed 31 DMVs as a way to disenfranchise black voters. I really enjoyed the way that the video was produced, especially the video portraits at the end, which I always find very powerful. I hadn't heard of this issue before and the documentary was only 11 minutes, but it was an interesting way for me to learn about a topic in a short amount of time. I really like this platform, especially because it is free and provides perspectives that are often left out of news coverage or covered, but by white people who often have a different frame of reference.
I think this is a great platform that allows individuals to tell their own stories. In the future, I could see websites such as this one becoming very popular, especially for different niche groups. These stories do take longer to produce and obviously are more costly than traditional news, but the content is so much richer and more engaging.

BSO Evokes the Turmoil and Tranquility in Brahms
In conjunction with the Boston Symphony Orchestra's two-week celebration of the music of Johannes Brahms, two young American composers were commissioned to write short, concert-opening works. Eric Nathan's the space of a door premiered Nov. 10; the following week was the world premiere of Brooklyn-based Timothy "Timo" Andres's Everything Happens So Much. Originally meant to accompany Brahms's Piano Concerto No. 2 and his Symphony No. 3, an illness on the part of soloist Hélène Grimaud meant a change in program for Friday, Nov. 18. Instead, the opening piece became Brahms's Symphony No. 4, Andres's new work as the opening after intermission, and the night completed by Brahms's Symphony No. 3.
A rousing way to begin the night, the orchestra matched conductor Andris Nelson's every move with passion and intensity. That being said, perhaps there was too much ardor at times, if a misplaced note by a violinist in the second movement is anything to go by.
With three of its movements in minor mode, Symphony No. 4's haunting melodies brought emotions of mourning to mind. As each movement escalated upon the previous, there was a sense of relentless, mounting tragedy that built up to the final Brahmsian fate-motif by the pulsing timpani, a stirring finish.
A former Tanglewood Composition Fellow, Andres does not quote Brahms directly in his work, but takes the composer's technique of combining several musical gestures together to create a dynamic counterpoint. The eleven-minute, single-movement work overflows with chaotic energy.
The composition opens with a playful piccolo theme that soon spreads to oboe and clarinet. As more and more instruments join the mix, melodies begin to cross as if different strands of a story weaving themselves together. With its fractured rhythms and discordant themes, it is obvious the piece is a modern one. Yet, even with its modernism, it manages to evoke the essence of Brahms, as if taking a Brahms theme and fracturing it into many pieces that somehow work their way back together. Nelson's frenzied conducting seemed to help match the chaotic feeling of the composition.
As the piece continues, the strings take over creating a more peaceful and calming feeling. Jarring notes still appear every now and then, as if to remind of the chaos that lies below the surface. By the work's end, the strings have taken total control, breaking into soaring phrases until all sound fades away signaling the end.
In contrast, the performance of Symphony No. 3 seemed almost muted and proved to be a definite change of pace. Often considered the most difficult of the four symphonies for a conductor to pull off successfully, it attempts to make discernible thematic connections binding together the first, second, and last movements, a procedure not attempted in Brahms's other symphonies.
As performed Thursday night, even with Nelson's dramatic motions across the podium, the piece felt subdued and restrained, as if the orchestra was holding back. As the last composition of the night, it was easy to drift off and zone out; the yearning theme of the third movement being the only exception. As the last notes of the fourth movement faded away, it was as if being woken from a dream, a mist-enshrouded recollection of something you cannot quite evoke, rather than the stimulating awakening often received at the end of the night.

Wedding receptions are a great way to blow off steam after the stressful process of wedding planning. They're also a unique chance to party with family and friends who aren't often all gathered in the same place. We definitely understand if you want your wedding reception to be the best party you've ever thrown or attended. Unfortunately, unless the father of the bride is Bill Gates or Warren Buffett, you probably have budget considerations that are at odds with your partying dreams. But never fear: here are great ways to save a few bucks on the reception without compromising the fun.
Limit the Bar
It may seem like liquor is the last place to skimp on party costs, but a top-shelf bar can really put a dent in your budget. Unless you're willing to do an open bar, consider having just one signature cocktail, then a couple of beer selections and a couple of wine selections. Uncle Fred may not be able to get his signature Tanqueray and Tonic, but he'll survive. Your open bar budget will go a lot farther if you stick with rail mixers, beer and wine.
Go for Comfort Food over Haute Cuisine
Sure, you'd love to serve your guests a choice of filet mignon or fresh Alaskan salmon, but your friends and family will be just as happy to dig into some barbeque or burgers with mac 'n' cheese. There's a reason it's called "comfort food:" it's food that people are familiar with, it provides a lot of fullness for not much money, and people associate it with happy memories of the dinner table growing up. If you're not prepared to go full potluck, this is a good step down from the really fancy stuff.
Make Your Own Desserts
Instead of shelling out for a wedding cake, you can make (or ask the in-laws to make) cupcakes or homemade cake. It's a fraction of the price, and it means more to your guests that it's homemade. If you absolutely have to have a multi-tiered masterpiece, go for a small decorative cake and get some good ol' fashioned sheet cake to serve to guests. Think about it: when was the last time you heard someone compliment the flavor of a wedding cake? Those big beautiful cakes are optimized for appearance, not taste.
Go for Non-Floral Centerpieces
Those beautiful fresh flower displays can be a real drain on the budget. You can save big by opting for centerpieces built around candles, books, or fresh fruit. Better yet, you can save on the cake and centerpieces both by having a different small cake at each table. It provides visual interest like a centerpiece, and your guests can eat it come dessert-time and you can even put a few wedding sparklers in each one to add some zest. Having different cake flavors at different tables also encourages your guests to mingle.
Provide Your Own Tunes
In these modern times where everyone has access to thousands of songs via smartphone or mp3 player, you can skip the band or DJ. Cue up tunes that will get every demographic dancing–a couple for the grandparents, a few for the parents, and plenty for all the thirty and younger to enjoy. Providing your own music also makes sure you'll get to hear those songs that are special to you and your new spouse.
A wedding reception can be a really fun party without breaking the budget. If you follow a few of these tips, you can cut a few corners without compromising the experience.

Hygiene, the science of preserving health. The subject embraces all agencies affecting the physical and mental well-being of humans. It involves, in its personal aspect, consideration of food, water and other beverages; clothing; work, exercise and sleep; personal cleanliness; and mental health. In its public aspect it deals with climate; soil; character, materials and arrangement of dwellings; heating and ventilation; removal of waste matters; medical knowledge on incidence and prevention of disease; and disposal of the dead.

This is a combined image of NGC 1275, also known as Perseus-A for its X-ray emitting properties and to live in this star city would be an interesting experience. Located relatively close for a giant elliptical galaxy; 230 million light years away in the northern constellation Perseus situated near the center of the Perseus Cluster of Galaxies.
At the center of this mess is a supermassive black hole that's tearing the galaxy literally apart. Multi-million degree X-ray emitting gas fills the area while vast filaments stretch out beyond the confines of the galaxy. Each thread of gaseous filament carries with it nearly one million times the mass of the Sun, are about 200 light years wide and stretch over 20,000 light years. Black holes cannot be directly observed thus, these filaments are the only optical light evidence of the black hole interacting with the galaxy. They were caused when the active galactic nucleus; "black hole" blew giant bubbles of relativistic plasma. As those expanded, the cold gas near the galactic core was dragged out into the surrounding cosmos.
It's been a long standing mystery as to why these filaments have survived the violent forces that the black hole is unleashing on them for over 100 million years. By now, it seems they should have been heated and dissipated or even collapsed under their own gravity and kicked off some star formation. Both "shoulds" in this case are wrong.
Recent study suggests that it's the galaxies magnetic field which is approximately 1/10,000 the strength of Earths that's forcing the filaments to hold station by exerting enough force on the ions to keep them together. The structure created by the field also acts as a lattice, or skeleton to prevent the collapse of the filaments as well.
The size of the supermassive black hole is approximately 340 million solar masses and there's even material in-flowing from the intracluster medium (ICM) of the Perseus Cluster of Galaxies; approximately 13 billion solar masses of molecular hydrogen in fact.
One last point to make; as you look at this photo you may notice that near the center a very distorted but familiar blue colored spiral shape with dust lanes can be seen with the telltale pinkish points of light that denote star formation. This is believed to be a galaxy in the foreground that's colliding with Perseus-A at nearly 6 million miles per hour.
NAME: NGC 1275, Caldwell 24, 3C 84, Perseus A.
WHAT IS IT?: Type-1 Seyfert Galaxy being torn apart by a supermassive black hole.
HOW BIG IS IT?: 2.5' X 3' arcminutes on the night sky or roughly 200,000 light years in diameter.
HOW FAR AWAY IS IT?: Approximately 230 million light years away.
APPARENT MAGNITUDE?: A pretty dim 12.6 or +12.6.
WHERE IS IT? (General): Constellation Perseus, the Hero.
WHERE IS IT? (Exact RA/DEC J2000): R.A. 03h 19m 48s.16 / Dec. +41° 30′ 42″.1.

With growing demands of rising population, Pune city is urbanising at a rapid pace. Managing this expansion has become a challenge and we need to explore ways to tackle this issue in the most sustainable way possible. The green spaces in the city are shrinking with growing concretisation. One way to over come this is by developing Green Roofs.
We at VK:e environmental have thus taken up a research project to study and prepare a policy paper to promote Green Roofs in Pune city. The motivation behind undertaking this research project is to utilize the untapped roof spaces for its environmental and recreational benefits contributing towards sustainable urban growth. Through a demonstrative project we would like to raise awareness and evaluate the benefits for Pune city.
The paper shall cover the analysis, benefits and way to implement the Green Roofs technology. The benefits and implementation aspects shall be analyzed by VK:e using various building simulation software's. The paper will also take into account various case studies of similar projects and take guidance from structural designers and horticulturists for designing new / retrofitting in existing buildings. It will elaborate on ways to successfully implement the proposal .
As a pilot case we wish to make the roof of Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) Head Quarters or any recommended PMC building green.
A brief on Green Roofs and the research is available in the attached pamphlet.
