Games in Ed Conference I
Long day in Troy NY. Started waking up at 6:30 cause the clock said 7. Bit of a tramp finding rent-a-car across the street. Woman there was interesting, hearing I was from Canada said she visited a reservation in the North once, it was 40 below. She wondered where all the teepees were. Her Native boyfriend hadn't warned her, "Indians don't talk much," she tells me. They broke up when she found out he was a gun runner and wouldn't be let back into the States. Are American's talkative or what? Also an interesting connection, her son had had a therapist 40 years ago who used games in therapy to improve social skills. Find out all sorts of things when you talk to people. Got to the conference all right, the keynote was great, about how teacher's professional development should be more playful, they should apply gamification principles t their own meetings. Key comment: "Technology is best understood as an amplifier" of qualities the kid may have but you don't know about. Next talk was about games on a great site, BrainPOP, focused on core curriculum but open ended. Focus on asking kids to collaborate in figuring out the rules of a math game, for instance. Key comment: "It's important to remember that our children have a lot of knowledge when they come to us." They're also collecting testimonials from teachers using games in the classroom and putting them on YouTube (e.g., Lisa Parisi GLPC). BrainPOP also has a funding page for education projects similar to Kickstarter. Next speaker Joel Levin talked about MindcraftEdu, his version of Minecraft designed for use in a classroom. Some amazing things built by kids: a cell, a scale model of their high school, the Alamo (see more on YouTube). Interesting that libraries and other comm hubs began calling him to get it in, there's a lot of interest in positive things to put on their computers (try to apply at home). Next was a workshop presenting some very cool research using games about difficult scientific concepts to prime kids for lessons. Examples were genetic mixing (RoboBots) and photosynthesis (building atoms). Then an adventure game had male and female leads making use of this knowledge in their quest. The next talk also involved quests, cutting up curriculum into modules that can be done in 10-15 minutes in any order, with kids getting points for completion and increasing difficulty levels. If the module is done poorly, they get it back with comments and can do it over until they're satisfied. Everyone who completes the class gets an A or A+, since it's designed to make students successful (what a concept!) Managed by a program called Quest (he had good non-Powerpoint slides too, I should ask him about that). Actually, it sounded a lot like my Grade 6 Enrichment class in 1969 (Mrs. Muir was ahead of her time). Finally, a "performance" video done by 5 high school kids with their teacher, using World of Warcraft to tell a story, and interesting mashup of theatre and gaming (they usually do it live, not in a video). Then followed the chalk arrows to the Happy Hour get together. Free wood-oven pizza and cash bar. This conference stuff is all right. Oh yeah, talked to several people about my site and handed out a lot of cards; also happened to bring a sheaf of posters with me which they put out on a table and which disappeared by the time I came to check on them, probably a good sign. Got a few minutes to spend on my essay. It's funny not having responsibilities outside of learning, quite a treat.

Wargroove delayed to first quarter of 2019
Wargroove has been delayed from late 2018 to the first quarter of 2019.
The eye-catching Advance Wars-style game was moved "to provide players with a really robust package when the big day comes", Chucklefish said in a blog post.
As it stands, Wargroove has a skirmish mode, an arcade mode, a campaign mode, a puzzle move, map creation, campaign creation, content sharing, a gallery, a codex and a jukebox, as well as loads of old-school secrets.
I played Wargroove on Nintendo Switch at EGX in September and came away impressed. It's a pretty shameless rip-off of Advance Wars, but that's why I love it.

This week I went to a class at the Apple store and learned about iMovie with my friend and coworker Traci. Only she will get the reference to the Grouper picture - a similar guy was featured in our movie we created at the store. While I do not own a Mac, I will be able to use iMovie to create things on our Mac at work, so I am looking forward to that!

text: Security is important, fundamental. When you live in a place, you feel at home if you are protected. A home is like a bubble: you know you are in your comfort zone and nothing bad can happen. However, you cannot spend the rest of your life just in your property. You need to go out, explore the world and still feel protected anytime, anywhere. Because of that, it's important that offices, hotels and other public buildings have security systems like alarms, CCTV and fire alarm systems in order to let people feel comfortable, protected and safe in public spaces. Now, let's see how security technologies have evolved to improve people's lives:

Of all the cat types related to Persian Cat Grooming Tips in the world, none is more distinctive or highly recognized compared to the Persian. Their appearance is almost stately, invoking images of riches and opulence, especially white Persian cats, but this type brings to the table greater than simply good appearances. Their tranquil and caring temperament makes them a joy to have around the house and a wonderful, loyal companion.
Persians have a lengthy and interesting history. They wased initially believed to have actually come from Iran, which is where Persia once alreadied existing. Although this may hold true, the modern Persian type has actually shed its hereditary signature. The modern type we view today is really felt to have, for the most part, developed in Western Europe, specifically Britain. It was not until after The second world war that American dog breeders recognized the inherent beauty of the Persian and started reproducing them. Now, the Persian is one of the most popular type in the Usa.
Persians are distinguished from various other types by their extremely thick layer, wide head, large eyes, and shortened muzzle. In the Usa, a movement started in the 1950 � s to produce an exaggeratedly flat face, known as peke-faced, but this paved the way to illness. While the peke-faced appearance is still very popular, the illness associated with it caused many dog breeders in the mid-1990 � s to desert selective breeding practices to produce that characteristic. The traditional appearance of the Persian includes a much more elongated muzzle compared to what we view today and many are now selectively reproducing to produce the more traditional looking variation of the type.

The Boxing Day derby bragging rights went to Spencer as they saw off rivals ON Chenecks 3-1 at Billing Road, and they went top of UCL Division One in the process.
Chenecks got off to a dream start as they took a first minute lead when the Spencer defence failed to deal with Adam Spalding's free kick and Adam Hancock fired through a crowded area to five his side the lead.
Spencer pushed strongly and Matt Long had a shot blocked on the line by Ash Ogden.
The Millers were level on the quarter hour when Ryan Lovell's delivery from the right was headed in via the underside of the crossbar by Liam Tuck.
Mick Parkes volleyed just over for Spencer after Chenecks failed to clear a Curtis Avery long throw.
Spencer took a 32nd minute lead when Janis Lauskinieks in the home goal failed to hold a deep Avery cross and Long's angled shot went in despite Joe Lewington's attempt to clear off the line.
Lovell missed a great chance to increase the lead from Long's corner just before the interval.
After the break Ben Lewington's snap shot was off target for Chenecks, but it was Spencer who scored the vital goal after 56 minutes with Luke Stone timing his run into the box to perfection to meet Long's ball in from the right.
Lovell was wide from a Luke Bartley lay off and then set up Tuck who was thwarted by Lauskinieks at the near post.
Chenecks sub Elliott Muddiman had a chance to reduce the arrears but keeper Tom Cooke got a hand on the ball with a defender completing the clearance.
Avery clipped the crossbar for Spencer after bursting on to Bartley's pass inside while at the other end Luke Tolworthy was likelwise out of luck with a shot from the left of the area.
The win sees Spencer go two points clear at the top, with two games in hand on second-placed Lutterworth with three games in hand.
Bugbrooke made it back to back wins as they saw off Woodford United 2-1 at Birds Close.
Two first half goal gave the Badgers all three points.
Ryan Ansell opened the scoring 11 minutes in with Danny Mortimer doubling the home lead after 28 minutes.
Adam Creaney replied for Woodford on the hour but it wasn't enough to prevent a sixth defeat in seven games.
In the premier division, Saturday's derby clash between Cogenhoe United and Sileby Rangers was postponed due to a waterlogged pitch.

Aberdeen Standard's Investment Approach
Maintain a balanced focus on established, revenue-producing assets and new development projects
The Company's principal strategy is to balance its investment Portfolio between established, revenue producing assets in the Company's main operating segments, as exemplified by the Company's interests in the Miramar Trade Center and the Hotels Assets, on the one hand, and new development projects, refurbishments and other capital investments that will contribute to long-term capital growth, on the other hand. Under this strategy, the Company has invested in existing Cuban joint venture companies that own mature assets, as well as in new development projects. The Board believes that this will provide stable and sustainable cash flows, with a strong potential for future growth.
Remain the dominant foreign investor in Cuba's commercial real estate sector
The Company's strategy regarding commercial properties is to remain the dominant foreign investor in Cuba's commercial real estate sector through the addition of new properties within the existing Cuban joint venture companies in which it already has an interest, whether by acquisition or new construction.
Remain a leading foreign investor in Cuba's tourism real estate sector
The Company intends to continue to be one of the leading foreign investors in the tourism real estate sector by maintaining a portfolio of investments in high end (4 and 5-star) hotels located in Cuba's main tourist and business destinations.
Be flexible in the deployment of cash flows
The Company's interests in commercial real estate and hotel properties provide revenue streams that may be utilised for new acquisitions, investments in the development of new properties, upgrading of existing properties or the payment of dividends to Shareholders. Given the time necessary to obtain all government approvals and to construct new projects in Cuba, one of the Company's main focuses in the last five years has been to generate stable and sustainable cash flows. At the same time, the Company also intends to continue to invest in Cuban joint venture companies that are in the process of developing commercial real estate and hotel projects. These development projects have the potential to create long-term capital growth for Shareholders.
The Company invests surplus funds in interest-bearing structured finance transactions and other financial instruments and commercial paper relating to Cuba, through the FINTUR finance facilities. The Company seeks to structure the repayment terms of such facilities to approximate the time when funds will be required for future investment requirements of new and current investments in Cuban joint venture companies.
Use leverage prudently and optimise the Company's capital structure
Following the full repayment of the Bridge Loan shortly following Initial Admission, the Group will be debt-free, both at the holding company level and at the level of each underlying investment. The Company believes that the absence of debt provides the Company with the ability to leverage its assets in the future, should the cost and other conditions for debt financing for Cuban assets become more acceptable, thereby allowing the Company to optimise its capital structure and to make further investments or to return capital to Shareholders. The future capital structure of the Company will be dependent on the cost and availability of debt financing, the ability of the Company to develop or acquire new investment projects and the continued improvement in local market conditions.
Be adaptable to changes in the Cuban market
The present business strategies of the Company have been developed in the context of the existing circumstances of the Cuban foreign investment market. The Company is presently managed with a view to maximising profitability and cash flow in existing market conditions. The strategies of the Company are not dependent on any change in these market conditions. However, the Company believes that any improvement in local market conditions, including general economic growth in the Cuban market, the continued increase of tourism in Cuba, the possible discovery of significant new oil reserves in Cuban waters, the possible adoption by the Cuban government of new economic reforms, and the potential improvement of relations between the United States and Cuba and/or the relaxation or lifting of U.S. travel restrictions and/or the U.S. Embargo, amongst others, would have a positive effect on the results and performance of the Company. The Investment Manager will follow developments affecting these local conditions closely and will adapt the strategies of the Company to changing circumstances.
The value of investments and the income from them can go down as well as up and you may get back less than the amount invested. The tax benefits relating to ISA investments may not be maintained. Investors should review the relevant Key Information Document (KID) brochure prior to making an investment decision. Read the detailed risk warning

What is this?
I woke up. I thought I would feel ridiculous sitting at the kitchen table at 6 in the morning while I could be snuggled up in bed with my husband and start snoozing my alarm clock around 7 until 7.45 BUT I didn't.
I thought I would question in depth the necessity of waking up at 6 am only to try (and possibly fail) to scribble down bits and pieces of writing that has an off chance of coming close, at best, to literary writing BUT I didn't. I thought all these things because she said I might have. Julia. Julia Cameron. She's the author of the book that got me doing this at first place- the morning pages as she refers to them. The book is called The Artist's Way.
Am I an artist? She said I would ask that question. The answer is "I hesitate before I can answer" (She also said this would happen, she's a clever one I'm telling you) If I cannot say yes then the answer must be no. But no. It's not no because I cannot answer NO either. What am I? Just another human being trying to figure shit out. Since Julia already correctly presumed 3 questions (and answers) I asked myself, I decided to try her routine a little.
It starts with me, waking up. If I can get my ass off that bed and drag my feet to the kitchen table, where I sit down and write down 3 full pages of early morning blabber before I take any caffeine into my system, I succeed. As simple as that. No other rules. No literary concerns, no grammer mistakes, no content guidance. Just me, three pages of blank paper and a pen. Nada mass, except morning pages are not meant to be shared with anyone or even read by me. That is the big rule in this game. I...like rules better when I call them. So my rules for morning pages will be:
1. Be purely de(e)caf.
2. Be as honest and open as you possibly can (that means I WILL be honest. No offense)
3. Share the heck out of it.
Parental discretion is absolutely advised and on a more personal note, please remember that all art is born from real life and you are a real person so please, don't take shit personally.
Let's go.

A proactive inspection program undertaken by WorkSafe to look at safety in WA's pubs, taverns and bars has uncovered concerns with hazardous substances, manual tasks and emergency precautions.
The program involved inspectors visiting pubs, taverns and bars in Perth and regional areas of the State over a two-year period from July 2016 to June 2018.
The program was prompted by a significant number of lost-time injuries in the sector, in particular serious and severe injuries, and the young age of affected workers.
Over the two years of the program, a total of 188 workplaces were visited, resulting in the issue of 1262 Improvement Notices and 11 Prohibition Notices.
The largest number of notices – more than a quarter of the total (368 notices) – related to hazardous substances. They included notices for a lack of training records, risk assessment records and registers of hazardous substances.
The next most numerous notices (197 notices) related to manual tasks – including a lack of information, instruction and training in avoiding injury, and notices regarding manually lifting beer kegs.
A total of 135 notices were for breaches related to emergency precautions – including failure to develop and/or clearly display evacuation procedures and not providing first aid training and/or facilities.
WorkSafe WA director Sally North said the results of the program were quite disappointing considering the number of young and itinerant workers in the sector.
"Pubs, clubs and bars are largely characterised by the high number of young workers and a high turnover of staff," North said.
"A large proportion of workers in the sector are students and young people on overseas working visas.
"These workers can be particularly vulnerable to injury, and it is crucial they are given sufficient and relevant training, instruction and supervision in all tasks they will be required to carry out."
As part of the program, inspectors looked at WorkSafe priority areas including forklift safety, electricity, falls from height, hazardous substances and machinery guarding.
They also focused on more specific areas such as slips, trips and falls from oil, water and food on floors, manual tasks such as handling kegs and heavy bags of food, cuts from knives, cutlery and glass and burns from oil, liquids and hot surfaces.
Other areas of focus included violence and aggression, beverage gas safety, safe use and movement of vehicles, exposure to communicable diseases for at-risk workers and first aid for burn injuries.

There are many things to be surprised that you have in common with someone else. Perhaps you collect segments of string from different time periods, or you have a life size Bat cave made entirely of Lego maybe you shave cats to look like lions and train them to reenact Disney's The Lion King. Having dreams while you sleep is not.

RockNRoll Chorus Performs on Campus
The RockNRoll Chorus recently returned to Full Sail University to treat students, faculty, and the general public to their a cappella renditions of some of rock and pop's most popular tunes. Their show in Full Sail Live marked the teenage high school group's third performance here at Full Sail.

Jordan Tours
Jordan is located in the northwest of the Arabia, east of the Jordan River, it played a significant role in the struggle for power in the Middle East, partly because of its strategic location at the crossroads of what Christians, Jews and Muslims call the Holy Land. Petra, the "Rose Red City" half as old as time is named a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a popular attraction.
5 Days Islamic Trip of Jordan: Amman - Kahf Al Raqim - Jordan Valley - Kerak

2Amman - Kahf Al Raqim
In the morning, you are going to visit Amman. Amman is a mountain city with long history located on top of the seven hills. It remains a large number of relics from Roman to Islamic period, which makes it seem like a natural archeological museum. You will go to the oldest region of Amman to visit Al Husseini Mosque, which was built in 640 A.D. Before going to the most splendid joint burial, you will have some free time to stroll around by yourselves. Next stop will be Kahf Al Raqim, where has been described in the Holy Quran of Islam. After all the visits, you will go back to Amman.

a) The assessee received a certain amount on account of maturity of life insurance policy taken by her husband from American Insurance Company in Abu Dubai. She claimed tax exemption on such amount under section 10(10D).
b) The Assessing Officer disallowed the claim of the assessee on the ground that the insurance policy was not taken from Indian insurance company and, therefore, provisions of section 10(10D) were not applicable.
c) The Commissioner (Appeals) upheld the order of the Assessing Officer. The aggrieved assessee filed the instant appeal before the ITAT.
The ITAT held in favour of assessee as under:
1) Section 10(10D) provides that any sum received under life insurance policy is eligible for exemption, except in case of exceptions as culled out under clauses (a), (b) and (c). It was not the case of the revenue that the assessee falls under any of the exemption as enumerated in clauses (a), (b) and (c) of section 10(10D).
2) The lower authorities have given much stress on the definition of term 'Insurer' as provided under section 2(28BB). It is pertinent to note that the term 'insurer' has not been used in section 10(10D).
3) As per provisions of section 10(10D) any sum received under life insurance policy including the benefit on such policy is eligible for the deduction. Therefore, it is apparent that there was no intention of the legislature to restrict the benefit of exemption under section 10(10D) only on the insurance policy taken from Indian insurance company.
4) Thus, the assessee was entitled for exemption under section 10(10D) on the sum received under the life insurance policy taken from American Life Insurance Company. - [2016] 73 TAXMANN.COM 67 (MUMBAI - TRIB.)

If you follow me on Twitter you might know I'm off on holiday on Saturday! I can't wait to have some time to relax and explore a city I have never been to before. There's nothing better than visiting somewhere you haven't been and enjoying the atmosphere and culture of a new city.
I feel really lucky as this is my second holiday this year, something that hasn't happened before. I visited Brussels in April for 4 days which was lovely, as it was my first time visiting and was lovely to explore the area even if it was for a short period of time.
There are a lot of places I would love to visit and are definitely on my must visit list, my top 5 (this changes month to month ha ha) is New York, Kenya Masai Mara- my dream is to go on a safari, China, Australia – I would love to go snorkeling/diving on the great barrier reef and finally I would love to visit Egypt – visiting the pyramids would be amazing.

There are also a lot of places closer to home that I would love to visit, Europe has some amazing destinations. I wouldn't consider myself to be well traveled but I am lucky to have visited Slovenia, Paris, Prague and Belgium.
There are a lot of destinations in Europe that I haven't visited yet but would love to explore, Amsterdam, Istanbul and Venice are top of my list to visit in Europe and hopefully one day I can cross them off. My best friend Louise went on a mini cruise to Amsterdam a couple of years ago and said she loved it, she has some lovely picture from her trip and I would love to go on a mini cruise to Amsterdam at some point in the future.
I have never been on a mini cruise, in fact my first experience of being on a ship was this year when I traveled to Brussels. I really enjoyed the ferry trip and although it took a little while to get used to walking when the ship was moving it was a really enjoyable experience and I would love to go on a mini cruise in the future. I like the thought of visiting several destinations over a short period of time and getting to enjoy different destinations day to day.
I have had a look on some of the cruise websites and there are a lot of great offers available and lots of different destinations to visit. One of the companies I looked at was Fred Olsen which was mentioned to me by Louise who's relative traveled with them, they offer mini cruises to several European destinations including Amsterdam. I was surprised at how affordable mini cruises are and hope to be able to enjoy a mini cruise over the next couple of years. I reckon a girlie weekend in Amsterdam would be amazing!
I'm hoping to visit a hot destination next year with golden beaches as I have never been to somewhere with a hot climate, a girl can dream right?
Where is your number one holiday destination?

The role for autopsy in the intensive care unit: technological considerations

In their excellent review De Vlieger and colleagues [1] confirmed the steady decrease of nonforensic autopsies, a well-documented phenomenon in Europe, the United States [2], and Latin America, including Brazil (Figure 1). However, the causes usually attributed to explain this phenomenon, from my point of view, are not causes, but consequences of a change occurring with regard to the concept of disease. The concept of disease should be considered as what truly rules the art and science of medicine, giving direction to procedures as well as yielding pathways to research. Hofmann [3] argues that he contemporary concept of disease is technologically constituted. That means, 'technology provides the physiological, biochemical, and morphological entities that are applied in defining diseases'. I believe the decline of clinical autopsy is the result of a rearrangement of conceptual frameworks working on the contemporary medical rationality [4]. Trying 'to convince' intensive care doctors about the value of autopsies based only on their value per se will not work [5]. The autopsies must aggregate value to the procedure itself: new techniques and new insights, as pointed out by De Vlieger and colleagues. In fact, a new status in medical rationality is needed, otherwise the decline will continue.

主題:Service Provisioning in Future Communication Networks
交流內容:The fifth generation (5G) communication networks will accommodate a wide range of emerging services with diverse service quality requirements. The network will integrate a variety of network resources and technologies to support high transmission rate and to enhance quality of experience to mobile users. The traditional one-size-fits-all network architecture cannot efficiently meet the needs of different services, due to the poor scalability, limited adaptability, and inflexibility. Network function virtualization (NFV) enabled by software defined networking (SDN) technology is a promising approach for an agile and flexible 5G networking infrastructure. In this presentation, we will provide an overview of several recent studies for 5G networks, including dynamic radio resource slicing in wireless network virtualization, computing and transmission resource allocation in the core network, and how to establish a customized virtual network topology for multicast services. We will conclude this presentation with a brief discussion of some open research topics.
Dr. Weihua Zhuang has been with the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Waterloo, Canada, since 1993, where she is a Professor and a Tier I Canada Research Chair in Wireless Communication Networks. She is the recipient of 2017 Technical Recognition Award from IEEE Communications Society Ad Hoc & Sensor Networks Technical Committee, one of 2017 ten N2Women (Stars in Computer Networking and Communications), and a co-recipient of several best paper awards from IEEE conferences.

Entertainment Weekly released some background on the upcoming short series "Fabled" that Jennifer Morrison directed. Paul is in one episode and is featured in the trailer. The first episode will be shown at the TriBeCA Film Festival later this month in New York City.
The stars of Girls and Once Upon a Time are trying to upend the patriarchal norms of classic fairy tales with a new anthology series calls Fabled.
The project, which hails from Refinery29, reimagines classic fairy tales in different realities, tackling stories about age, race, sexuality, gender, and relationships. "Anodyne," the first episode of the series, explores a story in which Alice from Alice in Wonderland crosses paths with Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz.
The characters, Allie and Dee, are described as "creative young women that blaze their own trails and stray away from societal norms. They crave adventure and dream bigger than what the world tells them is acceptable. After meeting at an extensive behavioral therapy center, they find solace and fortitude in one another. Their bond illustrates the strength of friendship and the power that women can harness when they come together."
The project was written and executive-produced by Evan Jonigkeit and Zosia Mamet, the latter of whom also stars alongside Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Norbert Leo-Butz, and Paul Wesley. Alex Gayner is also an executive producer. If the fairy-tale aspect at all recalls Once Upon a Time, there is a funny connection there, as Jennifer Morrison directed the first episode.

Morning links: First day of rookie minicamp
Here's my story from the first day of practice, focusing on second-round selection running back Christine Michael.
Seattle head coach Pete Carroll had this to say about Michael on his first day of practice:
"He's very quick — very quick and sudden," Carroll said of Michael. "He caught the ball well too, and didn't have any trouble picking things up to understand the system. For a first day, he got off to a good start."
Danny O'Neil of 710 ESPN Seattle also writes about Michael in this report.

FORT ST. JOHN, B.C. — Fort St. John City Council will be considering a bylaw at next Monday's Council meeting that would define cannabis retail operations and would prohibit the selling of cannabis anywhere within City limits.
Staff are recommending that cannabis retail operations, which would be permitted on any property that currently allows all other retail operations, be prohibited within city limits similar to other communities across the province. Taylor, Dawson Creek, and Comox have also passed similar bylaws in recent months to get ahead of cannabis legalization before the federal government's targeted July 1st date.
City planners will be giving a presentation to Council during Monday's Committee of the Whole meeting at 1:30 p.m. before the bylaw is due to be read for the first two times at the regular meeting at 3:00 p.m.
The Provincial Cannabis Control and Licensing Act received first reading in the Legislature on April 26th, and staff are recommending that additional time is needed to consider the permitting of cannabis-related uses in select areas.
The full presentation and a copy of the bylaw can each be found below.

Witham Sailing Club is looking forward to getting even more people afloat in Boston this year after a £10,000 Sport England grant helped the club buy new boats.
The new boats were needed to meet increased demand for low cost sailing at the club, following the successful introduction of a new Saturday Sailing initiative in 2013.
Saturday Sailing was launched to offer local youngsters the chance to learn to sail and cater for new adult club members who wanted to improve their skills.
But such has been the popularity of the sessions Witham is already looking at how it can get even more people sailing and sailing regularly over the next year.
Dave Sauntson, Witham SC Development Officer, said: "This season we aim to build on what we've learned the past two years and the activities which have proved most popular.
"Most of all we want people to have fun.
"When it came to Saturday Sailing we realised the need for more modern boats and that we had to keep making it fun, to keep people coming back.
"We have parents of children who came to learn to sail now learning and sailing themselves.
"Witham isn't just a river sailing club, we're also lucky enough to be positioned next to a tidal lock giving us access into The Wash, so it's one of our aims to be able to support more new sailors, who have reached a certain competency level, in venturing out into the tidal waters to experience the differences in the sport."
The latest addition to Witham's training fleet is an RS Vision dinghy, funded through the Sport England Small Grants programme.
As well as helping sailors practice more advanced skills during Saturday Sailing, the Vision, along with the club's Laser Pico and GP14 dinghies, will also be available for people hire to for club racing on Wednesday nights, keeping the cost of sailing down.
Meanwhile the club is also currently pulling together funding applications to extend and improve its clubhouse facilities.
Witham's whole training fleet will be on duty when the club offers you the chance to try sailing for free on May 9, as part of national Push The Boat Out scheme.

As I stated sometime in the past, I would be throwing in some musings and maulings of the local live entertainment scene, specifically theater, etc. I'll leave the bands to those who are more informed than I… though the Oxford Amercian's 8th Music Issue is out this week and comes with a cd of rocking, off the beaten path musicians, check it if you want to hear some underground Southern Sounds.
On to theater!
– The Second City improv troupe closed out another tour stop at the REP this weekend. Mr. Ricky went a few nights back and had a blast. The success of the Second City tour stops are always the individual casts, some years they're great and some years they're not so great. This year's cast was good and the almost sold out house had a raucus time. For those of you who missed the Second City tour this year, shame on you, we expect another great show in fall 2007…..
– The Weekend Theater continues an ambitious and exciting season with their upcoming schedule:
Marigolds' Final Performances are this weekend, Friday and Saturday @ 7:30PM. Did everyone have to read this in school? Watch out, there is some "actual indoor smoking" on stage, don't go throwin a fit, its part of the show, not Cigarette Speakeasy.
I Am My Own Wife, which won a Pulitzer Prize and several Tonys in 2004, will have a one night stand featuring Little Rock veteran actor, Allan Douglas. There are 84 seats, they will be gone soon, start dialing. Mr. Ricky made reservations last week, I suggest you do the same.
And Coming Up in November, Richard Greenberg's Take Me Out, followed by Wendy Wasserstein's American Daughter and West Side Story. Geesh, call 374-7601 and get down to The Weekend Theater at 7th and Chester this fall, its gonna be a good one.
– Community Theater of Little Rock is getting ready to put Sweet Charity (October 20, 21, 22, 27, 28 and 29 ) up on the stage over at Woolly Theatre located at the Arkansas School for the Blind. Mr. Ricky isn't familiar with this show, but I've been told its gonna be a good time. The revival is currently playing on Broadway, so if you're in the mood for a musical, For more information call 663-9494 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.
– The Red Octopus Theater Co. is at it again with their new Halloween sketch comedy show, Wooo..Pig! Zombie!. Details are sketchy(I had to, I just had to), but the show opens next Monday at the EZ Street Piano bar on 7th and Center streets, with a Starving Artists night and runs each night, October 16 – 21st. Admission is $10, $8 for anyone in costume. Doors open at 7PM and the show starts at 8PM. For more information contact EZ Street Piano Bar at 501-372-3530.
– Hollywood and Broadway on Main! (10/19/2006 – 10/29/2006) – is coming to the Arkansas REP, cast full of young kids from around the state who participated in the REP's summer programs. Normally, this kind of revue filler for a theater wouldn't seem that exciting, but I'm optimistic about this show. First of all, how cool is it for these kids to do a show on that stage for week? Also, the director/ choreographer, Nicole Capri, is great and this show will be far more than the typical recital fare. Call 501-378-0405 for tickets and more information.
People, there is tons of live entertainment to see in this town, get out there and take advantage! There is nothing quite like sharing a performance with the actors and the rest of the audience, they've invented Tivo, use it. For all the live theater information you could want, see the Arkanasas Times Theater Section.
Confidentially, I'll get back to you on how these were, – Mr. Ricky
*PS: This is the musings of Mr. Ricky and Central Arkansas Confidential, the views expressed here do not represent those of the Arkansas Times or its theater reviewers, so there, take that for what it's worth. All flyer art was supplied from the theaters or from show's marketing materials on their website, please contact with any concerns or inquiries, confidentially of course.

Aisha Buhari, wife of Nigeria's president
Aisha Buhari, the wife of President Muhammadu Buhari, set Twitter on fire with her comment that the Ekiti state governor, Ayodele Fayose is a 'mad dog that isn't chained'.
The tweet in her verified account @ABuhari had gotten hundreds of retweets but it was later deleted, following adverse comments that she should not have descended to Fayose's level with her choice of words.
"Enough is Enough Fayose. A mad dog that isn't chained. I refuse to keep quiet," the President's wife posted on her verified Twitter handle.
"If Buhari is 73 years old, I Aisha am 45 years old. I have more than enough energy to face you".
The two tweets have now disappeared from her account.
Aisha had rebuked Fayose for linking her with Halliburton scandal and a former US House of Reps member, William Jefferson.
It all started after the EFCC blocked Fayose's private account at Zenith Bank.
In an off-target reaction, Fayose alleged that President Muhammadu Buhari and his family members are not saints after all.
" Even the President cannot claim to be an angel. The estate he built in Abuja is known to us. His wife was indicted over the Halliburton Scandal. When that American, Jefferson, was being sentenced, the President's wife was mentioned as having wired $170,000 to Jefferson. Her name was on page 25 of the sentencing of Jefferson. We can serialize the judgment for people to see and read," Fayose's press secretary, Idowu Adelusi said.
In an earlier reaction, Nigeria's Presidency dismissed as "laughable'' the attempt by Gov. Ayo Fayose of Ekiti to link President Buhari's wife, Aisha, to US Congressman William Jefferson's bribery scandal for which the American lawmaker was convicted in 2009.
Malam Garba Shehu, Senior Special Assistant (SSA) to the President on Media and Publicity, said this in a statement issued in Abuja on Tuesday.
He said that ordinarily the presidency would have ignored Fayose because "he is a man childishly obsessed with the desire to grab the headlines and insulting people at will because of his incurably boorish instincts.''
He said that the presidency chose to respond on this occasion for the sake of innocent Nigerians who might be misled by Fayose's "shameless and blatant distortion of facts.''
Shehu said, "Ignoring Fayose carries the risk of giving traction and credibility to outright and brazen falsehoods inconsistent with the status of anybody that calls himself a governor or leader.''
The SSA explained that Aisha had no direct, indirect or the remotest connection with William Jefferson's corruption scandal in the United States.
He challenged Fayose to tell Nigerians "if the so-called Aisha whose pictures he proudly, but ignorantly shared, was the same Aisha married to President Muhammadu Buhari.''
He also challenged Fayose to tell Nigerians "if the Aisha of his idle imagination had any relationship by blood or any relationship in whatever form with the President Buhari's wife.''
Shehu further challenged Fayose to produce evidence from the records of investigation and subsequent trial of Jefferson to prove that Buhari's wife was in anyway linked to the scandal.
He said, "common names alone are not enough to automatically link innocent people to crimes or scandals, especially in an era of identity thieves.''
The SSA called on Fayose to show proof when and where Aisha Buhari was invited for interrogation in connection with William Jefferson's bribery scandal, let alone indicted for a crime locally or abroad.
He said that free speech does not entitle Fayose to falsely accuse innocent people of crimes they knew nothing about.
He warned that Aisha Buhari was entitled to protect her reputation from being recklessly maligned, adding that "political opposition is not a licence to attack people's reputation brazenly without legal consequences.''

Drumming Club
MSD students have the privilege to enjoy music through moving vibrations of drumming. Many students have crafted their own drums in our Woods shop. MSD staff, as well as specialized African drummers and Japanese instructors from the Japanese Cultural Centre have contributed to the drumming program.Over the years, the MSD drumming troupe has performed for various distinguished audiences.
MSD Hand Drum Ensemble
By Jim Coleman
Drumming Club group picture 2014
Drumming Club group picture 2011
On May 2nd, the MSD Hand Drum Ensemble performed at the Manitoba Legislative Building as part of the Manitoba Legislative Musical Performances celebrating Music in Manitoba Schools Month. As the director of the ensemble, I led the group of staff and students. We performed for an audience consisting of the general public , the media, the Manitoba Legislative Ministers and staff, 5 other school musical groups and several former MSD staff members. Honourable Peter Bjornson introduced our drumming group explaining our way of applauding with wavy hands. Our performance "Polyrhythms", which was the maximum allotted length of 10 minutes, received a round of waving hand applause. Our exceptional performance was the result of our month long practices at noon and after school. After the performance, many people acknowledged our efforts by offering their thanks and appreciation of our group. Even the music leaders of the other schools gave us the thumbs up! We all truly felt great after this experience!
After the performance, we were chosen to receive a huge poster of the event which listed the names of the schools that performed that day. This poster is now being displayed at the front office at MSD. A short video of part of our performance and photographs will be posted on our MSD webpage. Our drumming ensemble has also been invited for a tour of the Manitoba Legislative Building in the morning on June 21st. After the guided tour, we will be going to an Ethiopian restaurant for lunch in the afternoon in Osborne Village. Special thanks goes to Erica Weselowski for being my ears for listening for misplaced drum beats and to Michael Austria for practicing/supervising my drumming group afterschool while I worked with students individually on their solos, duos and etc... It will be sad to see most of these drumming students graduate this year, but hopefully they will continue to drum with the ensemble in the future. Perhaps we will have a new drumming group next year and will begin all over again!!

I usually make the deserts for Christmas Eve and Christmas night dinner. Because I am so slammed this time of year, I start making them a couple of weeks in advance and by the time the actual holiday rolls around we all want to puke because we have been eating them for weeks and they are so stale even the dogs won't touch them.
This year? It is going to be different. Looky what Santa a.k.a. Shari's Berries sent to our little old family for dessert.
I have slapped many a hands away from this gorgeous carousel. I did bite off a little sliver on the back side, but shhhhhh, don't tell the kids.
And these? I know it seems impossible, but they taste even better than they look. A few people said on Twitter the other night, "They are too pretty to eat," to which I responded, "Until you take a bite and then you eat three."
These dipped strawberries are my favorite. The strawberries are fresh, sweet and juicy and the different coatings are the perfect finish. And? They are healthy. Because fruit. Duh.
If you are cooking this year, take a load off and order these for your dinner. If you are being hosted by someone else, bring the desert. These desserts from Shari's Berries will make you the most popular person at the party.
As I stated above Shari's Berries sent these to me to try out and I was compensated to eat them and to share them with my family. And if they weren't amazing I wouldn't have wasted your time.

Battle of Britain pilot who died aged 99 given fitting send-off with lone spitfire flying over funeral cortege
Airmen pall bearers carried his coffin to the village church at Llanigon near Brecon, Mid Wales
A BRAVE Battle of Britain pilot who died last month aged 99 was given a fitting send-off as a lone spitfire soared over his funeral cortege.
Squadron Leader Nigel Rose fought off the German Luftwaffe in the skies over southern England in 1940.
There are now only said to be ten pilots, dubbed "The Few", alive still.
And the spitfire from the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight took to the skies once more in a final and poignant farewell to Sqn Ldr Rose.
Airmen pall bearers carried his coffin to the village church at Llanigon near Brecon, Mid Wales, and paid tribute to the man who shot down four Nazi planes and survived a dog fight over the Channel.
To mark his burial a Spitfire from the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight performed three flypasts over St Eignon Church in Llanigon where he lived for 50 years.
His daughter, novelist Barbara Erskine, said: "On his 90th birthday we gave him a flight in a two-seater Spitfire.
"They normally only have one seat. He even took over the controls from the pilot while they were in the air.
"He had to be certified by a doctor to say he was fit enough to do it. He wasn't allowed to take off or land.
"He said he was surprised by how quickly being able to fly came back to him, just like riding a bicycle."
The average life expectancy for British pilots at the time of the Battle of Britain, when the country was close to invasion and defeat at the hands of the Nazis, was just four weeks.
Many were in their late teens or early twenties when they took to the skies in Spitfires and Hurricanes from July to October 1940.
Sqn Ldr Rose previously described coming under attack by the Luftwaffe and said they 'made rather a mess of the Spitfire'.
He added: "At first I thought I had to get out. I put the hood back, undid the straps and got my feet up on the seat.
"But then I decided that I could get back. I managed that and landed with no brakes, flaps or radio.'
He went on to say the Spitfire was 'something out of this world' and added: "It was a beautiful aircraft to fly.
'"It had no bad habits, it had its own personality, and as some people have said once you were sitting in the cockpit and strapped in, you felt part of it and it felt part of you."
A spokesman for RAF Cosford said: "It was a poignant and fitting way to say goodbye to a national war hero
"The Queen's Colour Squadron performed beautifully taking the coffin from the church to the Hurst.
"As the Spitfire dropped on the final occasion it waggled its wings which was a farewell from one fighter pilot to another.
"You have to be pretty noteworthy to get a flypast and it showed the magnitude of his service to his country."
After serving with No 54 Squadron, he left the RAF in February 1946 and became a chartered quantity surveyor.
Sir Stephen Hillier, RAF Chief of the Air Staff, said: "Squadron Leader Nigel Rose, as one of the sadly ever diminishing number of 'The Few', was part of an extraordinary cadre of brave and selfless people to whom we owe our freedom.
"They remain an inspiration to the RAF of today. Their bravery and sacrifice should never be forgotten - lest we forget."
His funeral service was packed with friends and family and military dignitaries, all wishing to say a final farewell to a man who risked his life in the service of others.
During the Battle, Sir Winston Churchill said: "The gratitude of every home in our island, in our empire, and indeed throughout the world, goes out to the British airmen who, undaunted by odds, unwearied in their constant challenge and mortal danger, are turning the tide of the world war by their prowess and by their devotion.
"Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few."

7.00pm Eastern European Time, December 24th, 2004.
We are two days until one of the greatest Tsunamis in all of recorded history hits, but we are grappling today with evil of another kind. We are at the heart of Christian origins, where the birth of one babe sparked the greatest world movement ever to be known. And the air is potent with violence and tension. What would tonight hold for us? This is no longer the little town with a placid baby. These are the borderlands where centuries of hate have piled one upon the other. Yet, we are gratefully ignorant of all that has happened. We simply have come to celebrate a savior.
As day fades into night, we decide we have come too far to be shut out on account of five tickets. Surely somebody has an extra. At least one or two of us will get in. So we do what any sensible American might: find a monk. There are plenty walking around. So, we come up to the gated entrance and ask the hooded man about extra tickets. He sizes us up and down and says, "you need to get your tickets in advance." "We know now. But we have traveled around the world for this moment. Surely there is room." He pauses, ponders, and then reaches into his cloak. With a smile, he hands over three tickets. "These are extra. But you are lucky. You may not find any more." Any more!? We are virtually in. But, I don't know at that moment how serious the monk is.
Hours pass and the rain grows stronger. The women are taking shelter, trying to stay calm even though there are mostly men out now in the revelry of the evening. That's one thing that really surprises me. In Muslim countries in 2004, the women mostly stay in at night while the husbands socialize throughout the town. Mark is finding food, and Paul and I head out in search for more tickets. We walk back to the gate and are set in to terror when we turn and see a commotion.
Our senses flare as we see a motorcade heading our way. It is classic. A dark car with tinted windows is coming our way. Surrounding the vehicle we see at least fifty Muslim men shouting, pounding on the metal, running alongside. This was it: The last Christmas in manger square. The mob begins to erupt, the car explodes, our women are caught alone in the mob, and I shake myself back to reality. We come to find out it is Mahmud Abbas, the soon to be President of Palestine. Every year the Church of the Nativity saved a seat for Yasser Arafat. He never came. This year Arafat died. The leading candidate comes and takes the seat. It is a gesture of goodwill. He gets out of his car and gets escorted in. Now we simply have to see what this service will entail.
Mass begins at midnight and it is 11.00pm. We have three tickets and are beginning to decide who gets to go. But before we make that decision, we get aggressive. "Let's go to that gift shop," somebody says, " and see if the owner can help." Inside we are greeted with a glittering mound of nativity treasures. The owner speaks English. "We need two tickets." He grimaces, "That's not easy." "Let me make a phone call." After a few minutes he comes back and directs us to his brother who is serving cider across the square. Confirmation. Another ticket. We need one more.
The eleven o'clock hour moves by quickly with no success. So we try our last option. We head back to the shop owner. "We just need one more. Do you know anyone who can get us in."? He pauses again, looks at us, and reaches in his vest. He begins to unfold the most impacting moment yet. "Here is mine," he offers. "I live here. I go every year. You can have my ticket." I retort quickly, "No, no. We don't want to do that." He gets firm. "You will take my ticket. We are both Christians." I am shocked to hear he is a Christian. I have no idea Christians live here. "Now go," he says. "Doors are opening."
We take his ticket given as a miracle on this bleak midwinter night. We enter through the half sized, "door of humility" where only two years ago at least ten were killed during the second Palestinian Intifada. After a short tour of the holy sites, we find our way to the Roman Catholic section of the church. There the Mass begins in full regalia. It is a herald of the New Creation with flavors of the old paternal order wafting through the air and around the CNN cameras. The night was supposed to be magical. It was filled with miracles, no doubt. But our experience became colored by what was happening to us in general. We had been traveling for four months. And we were beginning to see Christianity and religion for what it truly is.
As we ride back to the old city, during the early hours of Christmas day, I think to myself: violence and ashes in this world are everywhere. And so are some of the most amazing people. Christianity as a religion has dirty hands. In fact, followers of the child who was born in this place can conjure up the kingdom of darkness on earth, as it is in hell just as much as light as it is in heaven. What is it that makes religion heal, and what is it that makes it destroy? I am becoming undone by these experiences. And our mentors, if they knew what we were coming to see, may have advised us at that point to come home. They might have told us not to explore lands further away from home, religious lands where we might get lost amidst the worlds growing economies and ancient faiths. But, we were young and ready to explore. And when we heard the growing news about the devastating waters rising in Asia. And when we realized we already had tickets to India next, we wanted to help at whatever level possible.

Things to Do in Tokyo
There are too many things to do in Tokyo – part of enjoying your time here is figuring out which are the "must-do" experiences. And your favorite Japanese language school is here to help! We've compiled a list of the most exciting, fun and important activities in Tokyo, to let you make the most of your time with us (when you're not learning Japanese, that is!). And here they are, in no particular order:
- Robot Restaurant
- Oedo Onsen Monogatari
- Tokyo Sky Tree
- Meiji Shrine
- Sensoji
- Tokyo National Museum
- Nightclubbing
- Akihabara
Robot Restaurant[ official website ]
We've gone here too many times to remember, and it's always a great experience. A treat for the senses, it's a show that is so completely over the top and seemingly out of control that when it's over, you won't quite be able to believe your memory of it.
Oedo Onsen Monogatari[ official website ]
Not the cheapest hot spring, but definitely the most fun one! Inside this complex is a traditional festival shopping street with restaurant stalls, games and more. For maximum theme park realism, everyone changes into a yukata first. It's a lovely atmosphere! And amazingly, the onsen even has outdoor baths, with specially arranged roofs to protect your privacy.
Tokyo Sky Tree[ official website ]
Expensive, out-of-the-way, pointless on a cloudy day, and for some reason tickets can't be bought online in English even after 3 years of operation. But on a good day, the view from the top is quite amazing, and perhaps the only way to really get an idea of the scale of Tokyo. For a free and convenient alternative, ride the elevators to the observation deck of the awesome Metropolitan Government building in West Shinjuku (243 meters high versus 350 m for Sky Tree).
Sky Tree is so tall we had to flip it on its side to fit it into the photo space! D:
Meiji Shrine[ official website ]
The huge gardens and massive old-growth trees you'll walk through on the way to the shrine are awesome enough by themselves, but the shrine itself is also a very beautiful place. And extremely convenient – only two stops from your favorite Japanese language school!
Sensoji[ official website ]
Tokyo's oldest temple, and an incredibly beautiful piece of architecture. The whole area around is quite lively with street stalls, so it's definitely worth an afternoon.
Tokyo National Museum[ official website ]
If you only visit one museum in Tokyo, this is the one to go for, with an awesome array of national and international artifacts of importance. But don't forget Tokyo's other great museums! In particular, we recommend the Ghibli Museum (advance tickets required), the Samurai Museum in Shinjuku, and the Edo Tokyo Museum (both stops on our Japanese Plus Traditional Culture course!).
Tokyo has several world-class nightclubs, including the massive Womb in Shibuya, and the upscale Genius in Ginza. But the biggest, and the granddaddy of them all, is ageHa. It's a pain to get to, but once you're there, you'll have an incredible time!
Akihabara[ official Japan-Guide info page ]
Japan's electronics and nerd heartland is a must-see even if you're not interested in what they're selling. Spend an afternoon walking around and you might find yourself coming back the next day. And the next. And the next…
~Explore Tokyo... Learn Japan~
This is only the tiniest overview of a few things to do in Tokyo. While you're learning Japanese at Genki Japanese Language School Tokyo, don't forget to use some of your time to have the most fun of your life in one of the world's most exciting cities!

Node and South Node)suggests that we all come into this world with some underdeveloped and overdeveloped aspects of our character. The Nodes of the Moon point us to these specific qualities: the South Node suggests our overdeveloped character traits that are easy for us to fall back on, but that may undermine our lives if we hold on to these traits for security; while the North Node suggests the qualities that we need to develop in order to find inner balance.
The North Node and South Node points are directly opposite each other.They are not planetary bodies; rather, they are points that take into account the relationship between the Sun, Moon, and Earth at the time of our birth.
The Nodes of the Moon suggest personal karmic imbalance. Thus, consciously working on these "life lessons" can bring us to increased happiness and fulfillment. If we over-emphasize and fall back on the qualities of our South Node, at the expense of developing our North Node, we may have a difficult time feeling personally successful.
Whether or not we consciously work on these lessons, events in our lives are likely to force us to confront them. In my experience, people often begin to confront and work on their North Node lessons in their thirties, whether or not they are aware of the issues through Astrology. Before this stage of our lives, we may be somewhat blind to our South Node tendencies.
Fear is associated with South Node issues. The South Node position is very often a point of great insecurity. We very much want what is represented by the South Node position, whether that is order in our lives (South Node in Virgo/6th house) or satisfaction in partnerships (South Node in Libra/7th house). However, the only way we can feel successful in these areas is through working on the qualities of the opposite sign (North Node position). We may resist doing this quite fervently, especially in the first 30 years of our lives, partly because we cannot see that letting go of some of our obsessions, and working on the polarity, will bring satisfaction to the South Node areas. Thus, the North Node represents a point of challenge and growth. One feels somewhat awkward and uncertain in the areas represented by the North Node (its sign and house). The North Node can also be considered a point of inflow. We need help with our North Node issues, and we often meet people who will help us confront these issues.

In the very same way, Jesus was trying to explain to his followers through His teachings in Mathew 5-7 that the walk of faith was dictated by our worldview. How you see the world and the things in it dictates how we walked in faith. We have somehow made it so complicated by valuing the things that really did not matter. Too many Christians today place prime importance on things other things. We have looked at the blessings of God and forgotten the one who gave the blessings. We have placed utmost importance the goals of this world and have forgotten that the true meaning of life lies in the accomplishing the great design that God has for our lives. We have viewed the world and our relation to it based on the values society has and not the ways that God has designed for us to receive our blessings. Jesus viewed the world in an entirely different perspective. As a result the things that matter to the world didn't seem to matter as much to Him. This allowed Him to untangle Himself from the traps of the world; traps which so easily beset us.
God wants to bless; but we must realize that he has designed the pathway to it. The only way for us to discover it is to view it through His eyes and with his worldview.

|Let 'em pay
By Tom Segev
None of this changes the fact that the Germans treated Holocaust survivors more fairly than did the Israel government, especially in recent years. Unfortunately, Israel's attitude toward people in distress is not a worthy example to other countries: not after the Olmert government proposed raising the allowances survivors receive by NIS 83 a month.

"They're taking our jobs. They're taking our manufacturing jobs. They're taking our money. They're killing us," Donald Trump said in July 2015 about Mexican immigrants.
But a new report based on U.S. Census Bureau data shows that in California, immigrants are still earning an average of $15,000 a year less than their U.S. born counterparts.
The study, which was conducted by Nerdwallet, examined a 2015 American Community Survey and learned that in 45 states around the nation, the median annual income of households led by a U.S.-born person was higher than that of households led by those born in other countries.
In California, that income difference is one of the highest in the nation: those born in the U.S. earn an average of $70,104, whereas those who were born in other countries only earn $55,039.
Wyoming saw the biggest gap: In 2015 the median annual income of households headed by an immigrant was $40,14, $19,544 less than that of households in the state headed by a U.S.-born person ($59,689).
There were five states where this theme was reversed: Virginia, West Virginia, Mississippi, Delaware and Michigan all have an immigrant population that earns a higher average yearly wage than citizens born in the U.S. Three of those states—West Virginia, Mississippi and Michigan—all voted for Trump in 2016.
A full list of income discrepancies between the two populations, broken down on a state-by-state basis, can be found here:

SkyDesk Mixed Learning: A Cloud-Based Human Resource Development (HRD) Support Service
At Fuji Xerox, we have been working to enhance our human resource development (HRD) for a long time. Especially since 2002, we have been making great strides in increasing the general knowledge, problem solving abilities, and technical knowledge of training participants through the integration of e-learning and classroom training. This achievement was made possible with our own original HRD support system, which we created through trial and error. Based on this system, we have developed SkyDesk Mixed Learning, a cloud-based HRD support service. The main features of SkyDesk Mixed Learning are as follows: (1) the HRD support system, with which participants' learning can be managed and administrators can create courses, (2) an easy authoring tool which allows administrators to create e-learning content, (3) our training courses, which have offered our employees practical knowledge that can be utilized in their work, and (4) the integration of paper and digital documents, which allows paper documents such as tests and surveys to be scanned, registered to the service, and distributed to participants via MFPs. By providing this service equipped with such useful features, Fuji Xerox aims to support HRD, which is of utmost importance for a company's survival and growth. This paper describes each feature as well as our future plans for SkyDesk Mixed Learning.
