Putin Comes out of Assad Meeting Punching at #Valdai2015, Warns U.S. Any MANPADs it Sends to Syria Jihadist 'Rebels' Could Be Used Against American Planes and Helicopters by ISIS/
As W the Intel Insider observed, some of Putin's rhetoric has started to echo that of his old friend George W. Bush: the terrorists hate Russia and mankind for its freedoms, and it's better to fight them 'over there' in Syria (Iraq?) than in Russia (the homeland)
Putin and the Smiling Persian Envoy Larijani Tag Team Slam What's Left of Washington's Tattered Reputation in Sochi
The basic themes of Putin's speech were familiar to anyone who has watched or read a transcript of his complaints about Washington's abuses of its hegemonic power at the Munich Security Conference of 2007 or more recently, his indictment of American failures and chaos-creation in Iraq, Libya and Syria at the United Nations General Assembly on September 28, 2015.
The only difference in terms of substance this time was the venue -- Russia's Olympic city of Sochi, the same place that now deposed Saudi security chief Prince Bandar "Bush" bin Sultan had threatened with terrorist attacks back in 2013 -- and Putin's choice of 'right hand' guest of honor for his speech, Iranian parliament speaker Ali Larijani. Mr. Larijani, for those RogueMoney readers who do not know, is the chief negotiator for Tehran's hard bargain with the United States and its allies to resolve the standoff over Iran's nuclear energy program. It was Larijani who represented both the Islamic Republic of Iran's parliament and its Supreme Leader in the tough talks that led to the Obama Administration agreeing to drop many of the sanctions Washington has levied against the Persians down through the past 35 plus years of Persian Gulf Cold War. Larijani was also, according to his bio, born to Iranian parents in Najaf, Iraq. RogueMoney readers can be sure that particular facet of his biography is also relevant to Putin's plans for a new Mideast coalition forged in the war against the Islamic State, one that includes Iraq and is led by Russia and China.
Larijani's presence shoulder to shoulder with Putin at the Valdai conference is yet another signal that the Russians and Iranians are going to stick together in Syria and Iraq. The prize of a new Middle East where America has been vastly diminished if not soon to be pushed out is too great, and the price of failure too horrible to contemplate, for Moscow and Tehran to pursue any other course now.
Any negotiation the U.S./UK and Sunni-stan Persian Gulf potentates of Saudi Arabia and Qatar should hope to have on the future of Syria will have to go through the two Caspian Sea neighbors, who demonstrated their interlocking defense potential through Russia's use of Iranian and (Tehran friendly government controlled) Iraqi air space to strike ISIS targets with cruise missiles launched from that shared inland body of water. The occasional mainstream media and especially Democrat 'foreign policy hand' fantasy of an Iranian-Russian split due to a gusher of Western oil industry money, or the Persians and Russians having a falling out to Washington's benefit can be safely shelved...indefinitely.
The Qatar-i Mouse That Roared and Mother Russia's Message to the McInsane MANPAD/Neocon TOW Akbar Brigade
Wednesday's announcement by the government of Qatar that they are prepared to directly intervene in Syria to counter Iran's regional ambitions in the war-torn country was likely greeted with laughter in the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps, and jokes about a turkey shoot of Qatari F-16s among the Russians.
Qatari-funded and supplied jihadists in northeastern #Latakia region, meet Russia's TOS-1 being fired by the SAA to burn out your mountainside foxholes and incinerate or asphyxiate you in sandbagged firing posts. Have a nice day.
If Senator John McCain is infamous for ranting that Russia is a "gas station posing as a country" than the Syrian and Iranian retort is that Qatar is a U.S. air base, an LNG terminal and a royal-family funded Al-Jazeera TV studios masquerading as a nation. Without direct support from the Turks, Israelis and above all the Americans the threat from little Qatar in the Persian Gulf is empty.
Thousands of Syrian nationals live in Qatar. Can Doha's security services watch or deport them all in the event Qatar actually tries to bomb the SAA?
The Qataris claims that their and the Saudis pet jihadis can use MANPADs they send to Syria to do serious damage to Russia's air campaign should also be viewed with skepticism. This is after all not the 1980s, and Syria isn't Afghanistan -- Russia really cannot afford to 'lose', and imagine the jihadists will not follow it back home or to the Muslim majority 'Stans to some extent. Nor are Al-Qaeda's 'moderate' head choppers the mujaheddin of the Reagan era.
The Saudis of Charlie Wilson's War did not have to worry about being repaid in kind for weapons they sent to kill Russian Afgansy in the 1980s by Yemeni Houthi tribesmen receiving new Iranian or Russian arms to kill Saudi soldiers on Saudi soil (to those who believe the Houthi can be successfully disarmed, I give you Yemen's long, for centuries friendly to pirates coastlines and fast cigarette boats carrying anti-tank missiles in from Oman or even across the Red Sea from Egypt for the right amount of bribes). Nor was the Kingdom at that time of moderate to high oil prices preceding the late Eighties crash bleeding cash at an alarming rate as it is today, beset by internal feuds revolving around the low oil price/fiscal imbalances compounded by expensive, failing proxy wars in both Syria AND Yemen.
Don't tell the neocon punks at The Daily Beast, but the Syrian Arab Army is still advancing albeit slowly, while also beating back rebel counterattacks and inflicting heavy losses on the jihadists. Oh, and Russia also bombed ISIS at the besieged Deir-ez-Zor airport in eastern Syria
Perhaps the last and most effective deterrent of all against more direct Saudi and Qatari participation in the war on Assad is the old Texas expression 'Smith and Wesson beats a hand of aces' -- meaning the royals themselves or at least their capitols could come under fire, in addition to military bases and warehouses full of weapons being blown up and looted by brazen Houthi raids. At least one Lebanese politician sympathetic to Hezbollah has warned the Qataris that Doha itself will not be safe from bombings should the ruling al-Thani family decide to push their luck and piss off the Russian Bear.
The deputy supreme commander of NATO has called Russian electronic warfare capabilities 'eye watering'. Pentagon analysts have admitted the U.S. itself cannot counter many of the systems Russia is fielding in Syria yet but the plucky Qataris are gonna take the Russians on? Good luck with that!
We know two spetsnaz operatives were arrested by the Qataris when they assassinated Zelimkhan Yandarbiyev, a Chechen commander wanted in multiple terror attacks, with a car bomb in Doha back in 2004. Blowing up a few warehouses full of TOWs and Stingers on Saudi or Qatari soil and letting some previously unknown Shi'a group take credit for it is not outside Russia's covert capabilities, particularly if it's done without harming U.S. personnel (not like what happened at Benghazi, in other words).
To the Lebanese gentleman's tweeted threat, we would have only added: are Qatar, the Pentagon and Lockheed Martin ready for what a great F-16 turkey shoot by Russian Su-30s and S-400s would mean to America's arms 'brand'? Because if the al-Thanis decided to give it a try, they'd soon find out.
Putin Calls the U.S. Government a Liar and Says Claims ABM Defense System Were About Iran Were Lies
In his remarks, Putin implied but did not come out and say that any effort to arm the jihadists with MANPADs would not only be exposed by Russia as American sponsorship of terror (echoing the warning of a senior Russian diplomat that MANPADs in ISIS/AlNusra hands could prompt the Russians to call a special meeting of the UN Security Council), but would probably backfire.
In a line that cleverly echoes the concerns of America's own unnamed commanders speaking to the defense and mainstream press about why the U.S. shouldn't send MANPADs to Syrian jihadis, Putin said that Washington couldn't be sure that the Stingers would not fall into the hands of the West's nominal sworn enemy ISIS. This is the same point we have made for some time, most recently in Thursday's October 22 RM article.
For now, since the Saudis and Qataris are both talking out of the rear ends (insert joke here about the arrested, psychopathic Saudi prince with a fart fetish) the best the mainstream media can do is bitterly cling to illusions that the Russian air strikes and Syrian Arab Army offensives have been ineffective just two weeks in. Or they can tell themselves that the Iranians will not commit significant firepower or reinforce their heretofore limited number of troops on the ground in Syria to get the job done, and that the few thousand Persian boots on the ground cannot possibly become tens of thousands.
Flanked by Larijani, Putin basically called Washington a liar yesterday for continuing to build an Anti-Ballistic Missile interceptor defense system in Europe even with the official threat of an Iranian nuclear bomb removed (note this translation is courtesy of The Saker and/or RT):
Attempts to promote a model of unilateral domination, as I have said on numerous occasions, have led to an imbalance in the system of international law and global regulation, which means there is a threat, and political, economic or military competition may get out of control.
What, for instance, could such uncontrolled competition mean for international security? A growing number of regional conflicts, especially in 'border' areas, where the interests of major nations or blocs meet. This can also lead to the probable downfall of the system of non-proliferation of weapons of mass destruction (which I also consider to be very dangerous), which, in turn, would result in a new spiral of the arms race.
We have already seen the appearance of the concept of the so-called disarming first strike, including one with the use of high-precision long-range non-nuclear weapons comparable in their effect to nuclear weapons.
The use of the threat of a nuclear missile attack from Iran as an excuse, as we know, has destroyed the fundamental basis of modern international security – the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty. The United States has unilaterally seceded from the treaty. Incidentally, today we have resolved the Iranian issue and there is no threat from Iran and never has been, just as we said.
The thing that seemed to have led our American partners to build an anti-missile defence system is gone. It would be reasonable to expect work to develop the US anti-missile defence system to come to an end as well. What is actually happening? Nothing of the kind, or actually the opposite – everything continues.
Recently the United States conducted the first test of the anti-missile defence system in Europe. What does this mean? It means we were right when we argued with our American partners. They were simply trying yet again to mislead us and the whole world. To put it plainly, they were lying. It was not about the hypothetical Iranian threat, which never existed. It was about an attempt to destroy the strategic balance, to change the balance of forces in their favour not only to dominate, but to have the opportunity to dictate their will to all: to their geopolitical competition and, I believe, to their allies as well. This is a very dangerous scenario, harmful to all, including, in my opinion, to the United States.
The nuclear deterrent lost its value. Some probably even had the illusion that victory of one party in a world conflict was again possible – without irreversible, unacceptable, as experts say, consequences for the winner, if there ever is one.
Putin went on to take his best shot at Washington's word-games, whereby a U.S. general admitted that the Pentagon only managed to fully vet and adequately train a whopping five 'moderate' rebels, who ended up deserting and surrendering their weapons to the jihadists who attacked them. Yet within days if not hours of Russian bombs started falling on Syria both the mainstream media and U.S. State Department could state with confidence exactly which jihadists were 'moderates'.
Why, Reuters can state with confidence Russia had targeted so-called moderates with over 80 and up to 90 percent of its air strikes in Syria since the start of the air campaign, irrespective of the fact that its definition of 'moderate' basically meant, 'everybody who hasn't formally pledged allegiance to ISIS yet'.
Ret. Army Gen. Jack Keane, discussing with the House Armed Services Committee how to use the NATO playbook from the 1990s Yugoslav war to save Washington's jihadi proxies from crushing defeat in the weeks and months to come
Just as in his UNGA speech, Putin took a direct shot at Washington's presumption that it can cynically use one group of jihadists (Al-Nusra front aka Al-Qaeda in Syria) while pretending to fight another organization whose ideology and tactics are nearly identical (ISIS) (translation from Kremlin.ru, with British spellings):
A terrorist organisation, the so-called Islamic State, took huge territories under control. Just think about it: if they occupied Damascus or Baghdad, the terrorist gangs could achieve the status of a practically official power, they would create a stronghold for global expansion. Is anyone considering this? It is time the entire international community realised what we are dealing with – it is, in fact, an enemy of civilization and world culture that is bringing with it an ideology of hatred and barbarity, trampling upon morals and world religious values, including those of Islam, thereby compromising it.
We do not need wordplay here; we should not break down the terrorists into moderate and immoderate ones. It would be good to know the difference. Probably, in the opinion of certain experts, it is that the so-called moderate militants behead people in limited numbers or in some delicate fashion.
In actual fact, we now see a real mix of terrorist groups. True, at times militants from the Islamic State, Jabhat al-Nusra and other Al-Qaeda heirs and splinters fight each other, but they fight for money, for feeding grounds, this is what they are fighting for. They are not fighting for ideological reasons, while their essence and methods remain the same: terror, murder, turning people into a timid, frightened, obedient mass.
In the past years the situation has been deteriorating, the terrorists' infrastructure has been growing, along with their numbers, while the weapons provided to the so-called moderate opposition eventually ended up in the hands of terrorist organisations. Moreover, sometimes entire bands would go over to their side, marching in with flying colours, as they say.
Why is it that the efforts of, say, our American partners and their allies in their struggle against the Islamic State has not produced any tangible results? Obviously, this is not about any lack of military equipment or potential. Clearly, the United States has a huge potential, the biggest military potential in the world -- only double crossing is never easy. You declare war on terrorists and simultaneously try to use some of them to arrange the figures on the Middle East board in your own interests, as you may think. [emphasis added by JWS]
It is impossible to combat terrorism in general if some terrorists are used as a battering ram to overthrow the regimes that are not to one's liking. You cannot get rid of those terrorists, it is only an illusion to think you can get rid of them later, take power away from them or reach some agreement with them. The situation in Libya is the best example here.
Larijani himself pulled no punches in his Valdai2015 remarks, despite his status as a smiling, non-cleric envoy for a new Iran that's open for business with the West. For one thing, he took a shot at Saudi Arabia, pointing out that those who do not allow women to drive should not lecture Iranians on democracy, and that the Saudis have held no elections in the past 80 years.
In one of the most pointed parts of his remarks that will likely be ignored by the Western press, Larijani asked rhetorically if American surveillance drones are somehow blind to the enormous number of tanker trucks it must take for the Islamic State to transact with Turkey:
Here's what else Iran's parliamentary speaker said in Valdai: Sunni-Shi'a sectarianism would not prevent a peace settlement in Syria
The Iranians and Russians ideally want to see a federalized Syria, rather than a country partitioned between an Assad rump state, the Kurds and some sort of Sunnistan straddling the old Iraq-Syrian border
As if they were reading off the same sheets as their commander in chief and his Persian guest, the Russian Defense Ministry responded in English on Twitter and its Facebook page to complaints made by Pentagon spokesman USAF Col. Steve Warren, regarding Russia's alleged insufficient targeting of ISIS:
Commenting on the claims of the Pentagon representative Colonel Steven Warren concerning the assessment of the activities of the Russian aviation in the Syrian Arab Republic, it should be mentioned that the Russian unmanned aerial vehicles detect considerable increase in the number of targets of the ISIS terrorist grouping.
ISIS leaders are projecting manpower reinforcements to combat areas from Raqqah and Iraq territories. They are also taking efforts to direct maneuvering automobile caravans with weapons and ammunition to the contact line with the Syrian Armed Forces. Therefore, explanations of the Pentagon representatives concerning sharp flight decrease caused by "no target detection" in Syria are more than just strange.
Airy dreams of Colonel Steven Warren concerning using cluster munitions by the Russian aviation in "inhabited areas" of Syria are absurd.
It appears that the American colleagues have not established their aims in the announced war against the ISIS terrorist organization.
This may be why the terrorists feel comfortable a year after the start of the anti-ISIS coalition's operations.
Russia Today or RT also pressed home the Kremlin's talking point, which happens to be true, that the United Kingdom and U.S. governments have stubbornly refused to share any target data on the Islamic State with the Russians, citing Moscow's primary motivation of supporting Assad and a limited number of Russian strikes on ISIS positions as their excuses. Even the so-called de-confliction talks may not be reducing the risk of an inadvertent mid-air collision as much as advertised. As we reported here at RM Thursday NATO's complaint that Russian jets have flown over the Baltic Sea with its civilian air corridors with transponders off are mirrored by the Russians' complaints that U.S. jets won't use transponders in the increasingly crowded skies over Syria...
So, to summarize we have Vladimir Putin, Iran's parliamentary speaker, and the Russian Defense Ministry all saying:
1) the U.S. lied about the purpose of its missile defense 'shield' in Europe (which won't stop Russia's Kalibr cruise missiles anyway, but that's a separate post), cynically claiming it was to defend the Continent from Iranian missiles tipped with nukes it agrees Iran won't have with the new peace deal
2) The Americans are trying to label some jihadists as 'moderates' to use them for their own purposes while pretending they aren't very similar in operation and ideology to the Islamic State (and here's a Vice News video that proves Vlad's point, about those 'moderate' Al-Qaeda loyalists in Al-Nusra brainwashing children into becoming suicide bombers)
3) Washington still believes it can prevent 'their guys' from surrendering or selling weapons to ISIS. They're flat out wrong and at times getting 'played' (how Putin's phrase in Russian is translated) by their jihadist proteges
4) The U.S./UK claim Russia isn't bombing the Islamic State, but refuse to provide targeting data on ISIS to allow the Russians to show that they are in fact serious about hitting ISIS hard and cooperation in the anti-ISIL coalition
5) Assad is ready for dialogue with neighboring nations and any non-terrorist opposition that wants to establish peace in Syria. But U.S. MANPAD supplies to 'moderate' rebels will inevitably fall into the hands of the terrorists (Al-Nusra aka Al-Qaeda and ISIS), who could use them against not only civilian airliners but also American jets and helicopters
6) The Pentagon has superb surveillance capabilities (and the Iranians should know) but refuses to bomb tanker trucks full of crude oil being 'smuggled' by the Islamic State to Jordan and Turkey. The number of U.S. sorties against ISIS targets is also inadequate and the Americans have been totally unsuccessful (Putin implies, but doesn't add, on purpose to leave ISIS intact).
The success of the Russian air campaign blowing up so many ISIS arms caches and training camps in Syria, and the Iraqis finally breaking through in Basji against Daesh after the establishment of their combined intelligence center with the Russians, proves the Pentagon has not been hitting the group all that hard (and implies Iraq should make Russia and China its top security partners instead of Washington).
7) U.S. planes are operating without transponder beacons over Syria (despite Assad's forces having never fired upon American jets entering the country's air space without any official permission). This increases the risk that they could collide with Russian or Syrian aircraft bombing ISIS
Does Vladimir Putin Read the @GoldenJackass? Because his Kremlin Speechwriters Sure Do Seem to Listen to Jim Willie's List of German 'Grievances' Against the United States Bullying Germany and Other 'Allies' into Submission
To which we could add an 8th point, and one that has apparently mad the native-level proficient in German Vlad mad -- Washington is not content to pick fights with Russia, it's now screwing over its allies vassals:
Unfortunately, military terminology is becoming part of everyday life. Thus, trade and sanctions wars have become today's global economic reality – this has become a set phrase used by the media. The sanctions, meanwhile, are often used also as an instrument of unfair competition to put pressure on or completely 'throw' competition out of the market. As an example, I could take the outright epidemic of fines imposed on companies, including European ones, by the United States. Flimsy pretexts are being used, and all those who dare violate the unilateral American sanctions are severely punished.
You know, this may not be Russia's business, but this is a discussion club, therefore I will ask: Is that the way one treats allies? No, this is how one treats vassals who dare act as they wish – they are punished for misbehaving. [Emphasis added to this line by The Saker]
Last year a fine was imposed on a French bank to a total of almost $9 billion – $8.9 billion, I believe. Toyota paid $1.2 billion [and will pay more, as Putin seems to be implying here, for all those ISIS Toyota pick up trucks? - JWS], while the German Commerzbank signed an agreement to pay $1.7 billion into the American budget, and so forth [probably Putin is trying to recall the fines paid by Société Générale and Credit Suisse here - JWS].
We also see the development of the process to create non-transparent economic blocs, which is done following practically all the rules of conspiracy [eg top secret negotiations for the Trans Pacific Partnership or TPP- JWS]. The goal is obvious – to reformat the world economy in a way that would make it possible to extract a greater profit from domination and the spread of economic, trade and technological regulation standards.
The creation of economic blocs by imposing their terms on the strongest players would clearly not make the world safer, but would only create time bombs, conditions for future conflicts.

Cyber attack hits Maersk, BNP Paribas & others
A major cyber attack, believed to have first struck in Ukraine, has continued to cause havoc around the world, cripppling computers or halting operations at port operator Maersk, the property arm of French bank BNP Paribas and a Cadbury plant in Australia. Kate King reports.
Broadcasters: NO ACCESS UK, NO USE AFTER 30 DAYS MUST ON-SCREEN COURTESY 'MIKHAIL GOLUB', MUST ON-SCREEN COURTESY 'INSTAGRAM/KENNYMIMO', Digital: NO ACCESS UK-FOCUSED PUBLISHERS, NO USE AFTER 30 DAYS ON ALL PLATFORMS MUST ON-SCREEN COURTESY 'MIKHAIL GOLUB', MUST ON-SCREEN COURTESY 'INSTAGRAM/KENNYMIMO'**~ From a Cadbury factory in Tasmania, to the property arm of France's biggest bank BNP Paribas. It's now clear that Tuesday's cyber attack spread much further than its start point in eastern Europe. (SOUNDBITE) (English) PROFESSOR ISAAC BEN ISRAEL, HEAD OF THE BLAVATNIK CYBER RESEARCH CENTRE IN TEL AVIV UNIVERSITY, SAYING: "The main attack here was an attack on Ukraine and it was masked by the ransomware attack that happenned, as I said, in many other countries Experts say the virus bore similarities to the ransomware that infected more than 300,000 computers last month. Code known as 'Eternal Blue', used in both. Reverberations from the attack continuing on Wednesday with shipping giant A.P. Moller-Maersk telling Reuters it's unable to process new orders. WPP, the world's biggest advertising agency, says it too is working with IT partners to restore services Globally, Russia and Ukraine were most affected, with oil giant Rosneft one of those hit. Raising questions about one theory - that the attack had 'Russian fingerprints' on it. (SOUNDBITE) (English) MICHAEL DANIEL, PRESIDENT OF THE CYBER THREAT ALLIANCE AND FORMER CYBER SECURITY COORDINATOR AT THE WHITE HOUSE, SAYING: "Russia is the obvious target for Ukraine to point at but there are many many criminal organisations in the world based in many different countries. And it could be a criminal organisation, it could be a hacktivist." The virus crippled computers running on microsoft windows by encrypting hard drives and overwriting files, then demanding $300 in bitcoin payments to restore access SOUNDBITE (English) SECURITY RESEARCHER, TROY HUNT, SAYING: "Ransomeware is very effective because attackers can sit at home in the comfort of their own living room possibly on the other side of the world and mount these attacks with very low risk to themselves and very low upside." It's still unclear whether the motive was money, Either way it's exposed significant weaknesses in big business across the world

About Us
Genex Diagnostics specializes in DNA testing. We are a well-established and highly regarded laboratory with a solid reputation amongst the legal and medical community in the US, Canada, and over 100 countries worldwide. Our state of the art facility is equipped with the latest equipment and technology, allowing us to provide clients with the fastest, most efficient and most accurate DNA testing services. We currently perform over 20,000 paternity test per year, processing approximately 60,000 patient samples annually, and have maintained a completely flawless record. We are one of the largest and leading providers of DNA paternity testing services to patients throughout North America and we are the laboratory of choice for many physicians, lawyers, hospitals, and government organizations across the country. Results from Genex are routinely used in court and have been recognized as legal evidence of paternity throughout North America.
The scientists at Genex have encountered and successfully processed nearly every possible scenario. Such cases include but are not limited to: regular paternity, regular maternity, motherless paternity, fatherless maternity, alleged fathers who are brothers or father and son, reconstruction of paternal identity, grandparentage, avuncular testing, sibship, twin zygosity, paternity testing from cases involving incest, from histological slides from deceased individuals, from DNA banked with our laboratory for estate claims, from blood or buccal cells, from amniocentesis before birth, from chorionic villus samples before birth, for urgent request where samples are required in under 24 hours and many other scenarios. Nearly all of these cases are used as legal evidence, some of these cases involve high profile figures, international cases, alleged fathers with restraining order, in prison, or where one of the individuals is located in a rural district or is handicapped or otherwise unable to physically attend an appointment.
Genex Diagnostics's commitment to the latest technology and to patient education and service has allowed each of the aforementioned tests to be conducted without any issue. Genex has maintained an unblemished record with no legal challenges to our reports whatsoever. The technology offered by Genex guarantees a CPI (combined Paternity Index) greater than 10,000. All paternity inclusions are reported as greater than 99.99% and all paternity exclusions are reported as 0% probability of paternity. With over 60,000 thousand tests conducted to date, Genex has maintained an unblemished record with no legal challenges to our reports whatsoever.
Experience with Reconfirmation Screens
Because of our advanced technology, Genex is often asked to reconfirm cases which were previously conducted by other smaller laboratories which use older and less sensitive techniques. One major drawback of older technologies used by smaller labs is that it is often not powerful enough to exclude an alleged father who is not the true biological father of a child. The older technologies often provided CPI's under 50. The technology offered by Genex guarantees a CPI (combined Paternity Index) greater than 10,000. All paternity inclusions are reported as greater than 99.99% and all paternity exclusions are reported 0% probability of paternity. Using the latest technology, Genex has on a number of occasions excluded alleged father that previously were not excluded by smaller laboratories who had conducted the test using older technology.Next: Corporate Information »

Training Squadron SIX (VT-6) will observe a change of the helm Thursday, Oct. 3 at 10 a.m. in the Naval Air Station Whiting Field Atrium as Cmdr. Donald Jamiola will cede command of the unit to Lt. Col. Kevin Digman.
Following the change of command, Jamiola will depart for Norfolk, Va. where he will assume the duties of Air Boss aboard the USS Kearsarge (LHD-3).
Jamiola, a 1995 graduate of the United States Naval Academy, was designated a Naval aviator in 1997 at NAS Corpus Christi. As a P-3 pilot he had tours in both VP-26 and VPU-1 in Brunswick, Maine. Jamiola also served onboard the USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71) as the assistant air operations officer and operations administration officer. Jamiola completed his Masters of Arts degree in National Security and Strategic Studies at the Naval War College in 2009 before reporting toVT-6.
He served as executive and commanding officer of VT-6 from June 2011 to October 2013. Under his leadership, the "Shooters" of VT-6 flew over 11,550 mishap free flight hours, including over 10,700 instructional hours. In 2012 and 2013, VT-6 produced over 285 students for follow on advanced training pipelines to provide the next generation of Naval Aviators to the fleet.
The "Shooters" were highly lauded during Jamiola's tenure, earning a grade of "Outstanding" during the 2012 CNATRA Standardization and Evaluation inspection. VT-6 instructors were also recognized for their "Outstanding" performance on the 2012 and 2013 NATOPS unit evaluations.

text: The winter forecast for the Ohio Valley, temperature-wise, looks to be on the cool side, especially on the eastern side. An average stratospheric temperature, combined with the recent -NAO trend has me believing that this winter will contain more instances of a negative NAO than we saw last year. Additionally, El Ninos are favorable for negative NAO's, altogether increasing the potential for the North Atlantic Oscillation to be in a negative phase. And that, my friends, leads to below normal temperatures. However, I only highlighted the eastern part of the region, as Nor'easters should pull down cool air from Canada as or after they pass through, lowering temperatures.

Bring it Down is a duo melody pop anthem that encourages one and all to hold onto their creativity and inspiration leading to discovery. The song consists of contrasting sections between sliding strings (the hopeful dreamer) and a driving rhythmic chorus (the make-it-happen realist).
Crazy for You is a grateful love song announcing the amazement of finding your perfect person to spend your life with. The light instrumentation makes you want to get up and "silly" dance.
Forgiveness Sounds Like tries to reconcile anger and accept that we must forgive. "Give me faith to heal and strength to believe," presents a simple yet difficult to obtain life motto.
Do As We Please is a rockabilly duet between Julida and Sean. "Together, close side by side, everything is alright," acknowledges how much life is improved because they have each other. The ending vocals mimc the style of Snow White.
Mr. Smith is an intense baroque pop song that warns about the bad habits we fail to conquer that eventually develop into bigger problems. The middle section is a unique duet between horn and violin that amplifies the struggles of real life.
Surrounded by Machines is a comical pop song about always being surrounded by machines.
The Answer, is a playful love song that poses the question, "How is it you have the answer to all my questions?" In a relationship one cannot anticipate all of the ups and downs but instead must enjoy the journey.
You're My Man is a rockabilly swing dance about desperately wanting your boyfriend to propose. The guitar, bass, piano and various percussion drive the song to an exasperated ending.
Lucky Lullaby, a duet between Annella and Brent, is the truest of authentic love songs that confesses dedicating one's life to each other. Prominent string melodies weave in and out of the vocals while the harp like ukulele gently fills in the accompaniment.
Seasons Turn, the title track of the album, reminds us to hold onto love in our forever changing and accelerating lives. The middle instrumental section is taken over with layers upon layers of symphonic strings.
Wandering Soul reveals the fears of pursuing your soul desire. The chorus states, "You can't move forward without an effort. You can't move forward without a struggle." The bass drum intensifies the second half of the song like a pumped-up heart beat.
Because You're Mine is a ballad-style love song full of gratitude, "Because you're mine I'll be just fine. We've got all the time in the world."
In this Great World the possibilities are endless and much of it is exactly as we want to make it. This Americana rock song's quiet beginning mimics a child's simple desires and develops into a full chorus and rich instrumentation representing the future. This song is dedicated to Sean's god child and nephew Alaric Alter.
Truth EP = Happy, Hopeful Songs
Lightning & Thunder is the authentic love song Sean wrote Julida. He quoted lines from this song during his vows in August 2016 "Any fear or thought of blunder or a burning fire of disaster. Wouldn't keep me away from you. No I'd never fall or stumble. Wouldn't keep me away from you, like lightning does to thunder."
All I Ask of You looks at the creepy Phantom of the Opera story. This song describes the desire of Eric "The Phantom" and how he needs Christine.
Night Song is a lullaby for the Syrian Refugee children. Nothing is perfect but we always need hope.
What if we all got what we wanted? Would it even be enough in the end? Clear Cut reminds us to be happy with what we have.
Truth - If the truth was right in front of us would we even know it?

I have noticed some more than-the-leading setups. And not just drum machines, but each sound in the book can be purchased, programed, plugged in, and used to any degree you can envision. But if you have to have something, then use the imagination God gave you. John Hartford's rhythm section was a piece of plywood. He would dance kind of a jig/tap/clog on that piece of plywood while he played his banjo and sang. I have noticed numerous musicians perform a tambourine with their foot. Go on YouTube and verify out Tony Joe White. He utilizes a harmonica sparingly, and it usually adds not detracts from the song. Phil Keaggy utilizes a loop to perfection. There are options. But when I went to a live performance in the early eighty's and found that a certain power trio had prerecorded some bass and guitar components, I was dissatisfied.

Hi Debi,
The thing that jumped out to me was the idea that we "can" stand in the grace of God. It's more like we actually do, however we think about "standing in the grace of God". In fact that term itself makes it feel like there's still something to do.
We've been put into the the measureless love and acceptance of God through Christ. Relating to Him at every point in the journey with a simple resting in the already done fact opens doors for us into enjoying the journey. It's a done deal.
'we ARE made ALIVE together in and with christ jesus ... our ever present-eternal reality ... sin is no longer an issue with god.'-Dignz
I love that.

In the spirit of looking back at the end of another year, here's my selection of the best images I've been fortunate enough to see, take or select in the course of my work for DFID this year.
2013 has been an extraordinary year, in which I've been lucky enough (if that's the right phrase) to travel to India, Jordan, Lebanon and the Philippines in the course of my work. I've met some extraordinary people in those places, living in some extraordinary conditions, from the baking heat of the deserts of Zaatari and Madhya Pradesh, to the exposed plateau of the Bekaa Valley and the humid devastation of Tacloban. I haven't written about this as much as I might have liked – as evidenced by the only sporadic posts on this blog. And I might not have have published as many of the pictures I've taken as I'd have liked either. Hopefully some of them will come out in 2014 instead.
But these are some of the pictures taken by others that we've published on DFID's Flickr stream and that have stood out for me – some of them taken by colleagues, some of them by NGOs or UN agency staff, and some of them by fantastic photojournalists. Oh, and one of my own (is that allowed!?)
All of them illustrate an aspect of the many people, countries and global issues that British aid plays a part in, and that helps to improve lives around the world. I hope you agree that they're worth sharing. Please take a look at my development photos of the year 2013, a gallery on Flickr.
And happy new year – here's to more fantastic photos in 2014!

Amy Rouge is a lover of great big cocks and she had recently found out that Mike has a giant 8 inch cock and she had to get her some of that and do it fast, just the thought ot it was making her pussy pulse in her school uniform. She gets her chance and she jumps at it, stripping off her sexy red plaid suit and revealing her tiny teen titties for him to get his cock hard on. She wrapped her hands around the width of his cock and starts to stroke up and down, teasing him with her hands. She strokes him so good that his balls fill up to rock hard and his massive cock can barely take it.
Amy Rouge climbs up on the bed between his legs with her sweet little titties hanging out for him to see, but not to touch. She strokes his cock, waiting for that instant when she can feel his hot cum running down her hand and onto his belly, she knows that's the sexiest part of this whole teentugs session, she loves the warmth of the fresh jizz running all over her hands. She strokes and tugs on his 8″ cock until his balls are completely full of that hot juice she loves so much. Amy Rouge can feel his balls and knows it is almost time, they are hard as can be without exploding and his cock is throbbing, it's so hard and her teasing it with her teen hands isn't making that any better. He isn't going to be able to contain it much longer before he cums all over the place. Little did he know that Amy Rouge had stroked his cock to the point there wasn't room in there for it to hold any longer and he started to shoot his hot cum all over, she was shocked to see that he almost shot himself in his own face. Amy Rouge had never been with a guy that could shoot his cum in his own face and this was making her pussy wet and horny. Teentugs has fresh hi-def videos of all shapes and sizes.

Salary Information
In most cases, salary discussions begin once the employer has made a formal job offer. Prior to that time, you should not bring up the subject of salary or benefits, unless the employer does so, first. However, an employer may ask you to disclose your salary expectations during the job application process (in your cover letter or during an interview), in order to find out if your expectations are in line with what they plan to offer.
You will need to have a realistic idea of the low, mid and high salary ranges for the position you are seeking, keeping in mind the following factors:
- Geographic location (cost of living)
- Position level (e.g. entry-level)
- Academic/ Work Experience qualifications
Before entering into salary negotiations
Know what you are worth
Work experience or expertise warrants a higher salary. If you have any of the following, you may be in a position to negotiate for a higher salary:
- Relevant work experience (including internships, co-op placements, part-time or summer jobs) which positively impacts your ability to do the job.
- Specific expertise, certifications or an advance degree which is in high demand.
- A written offer from another company, stating a higher salary.
Know what can be negotiated
Salary is only one part of a total compensation package. Other items that may be part of the package and may be negotiable include:
- Stock or stock options
- Benefits (medical, dental, and vision) and life insurance
- Performance bonuses or profit sharing
- Vacation time or sabbaticals
- Ttuition reimbursement
- Relocation costs
- A company car, fitness membership or technical equipment
Note: for some organizations the above items are not negotiable, and there may be in a non-negotiable fixed salary scale.
During Negotiation
After carefully considering the job offer, you may wish to negotiate.
During this process, it is important to:
- Ask questions about how the salary being offered was determined.
- Be realistic about your counter offer, and give evidence for why you feel your salary should be higher.
If the compensation is not negotiable, you can suggest other options (such an earlier performance review). Be creative. While salary is important, there may be other elements of the job offer that can be negotiated as well.

These days, weather permitting, I'm usually found out and about with a camera made of wood and metal making quite long exposures of a vernacular landscape.
My last outing with the camera that was an early morning coincidence of sunrise and low tide revealed the presence of Alcedo Atthis right under my feet. I have taken to recording my time on site with a small stereo recorder with a view to creating a backing track for hopefully, a solo exhibition of 'Estuarine Mud'. I had just fired the shutter from my second sheet of film when I heard that mistakable call sign of a Kingfisher. Then there it was hovering over the outfall area of the major sluice into Cattawade Creek. A marvellous start to any day, shooting large format film of a mudscape and have a cherry on the top.
Now, part of the reason for this series is that most of us do not see what is there before us and making images at dead low water presents a different arrangement of boats based upon the wind direction of the falling tide. That is like nature playing a joker for me. By the very nature of the detailed large format study I am making, especially shooting at 1 second F45 fast moving things are not on my radar, but Kingfishers are an obsession with me so now I have two reasons to visit this site and weather conditions won't stop me capturing a Kingfisher where I would not drag out the wood and metal jobby.
I'm always re-training myself based on what I shoot with and I know this contemporary malarkey is not about kit but one does have to know how to use one's tools for the job in hand. I use long lenses for these birds and it is different when I am cruising the Norfolk Broads in a boat where I can get close, very close to them compared to being land-bound and relying on the reach of the lens and my skills. These lenses are difficult to manage for such a small subject at quite long distances. In this case I am talking about between 75-200 feet so I have been experimenting with using back button focus to see if I can capture better images at these distances. The image above is one such result from a handful shot on Saturday 2nd September.
So far the experiment has been quite good. Whether that is luck or not I do not know. I shall try different lens/body combinations and also different VR/shutter speed combinations. Above all though it is about knowing what it is I want to capture and knowing how it will behave, in terms of the Kingfisher, before I venture forth and dare to press the shutter. Often as not I will stand, squat, crouch for a while observing the scene just as I do for large format work before I decide to make an image. It does mean devoting time to watching and waiting though but then, photography is all about time.

BLOG: Pump Repair 101
Think of your company like a thriving human body. You take care of it, feed it, and keep it in shape so it can perform today as well as tomorrow.
Your production line, and the products that come off of it, are your life blood. That means the components on that line, your equipment, are like vital organs. You need that equipment performing well to keep your company healthy.
If your business depends on a pump, specifically a PD (Positive Displacement) pump, you're in luck! These rock solid pumps — used widely in the food, dairy, beverage, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries — can be rebuilt for a fraction of their replacement cost. It's relatively fast and easy to get these pumps back on-line for your operation. Best of all, these repairs make your PD pump as good as new (guaranteed 95% capacity of a new pump).
After inspection of your PD pump by our certified pump repair specialist, inside and out, you'll know the final cost for getting that important piece of equipment back to proper health and functionality. Often, that could be as simple as new seals, seal kits, and bearings. Sometimes, these basic repairs will also entail brand new rotors.
Within 1-2 weeks of total time, your PD pump will be completely cleaned, repainted, rebuilt and back to your plant. It will be healthy again. Total cost is generally no more than 40-50% of replacement cost. You really can't beat that for a 95% capacity new pump!
Just do the basic math: Keep using your tried-and-true equipment, and those costs will pay for themselves within two (2) repair cycles. That's an outstanding deal! For the cost of purchasing new equipment, you can keep your line running smoothly for months and years to come. It's almost like placing a brand new organ in your body.
Knowing what's involved for maintaining your equipment is essential to the health of your business. Repairing your PD pumps when needed, for a fraction of the cost, can keep your company thriving today and growing tomorrow.

First time i heard Metastaz i was hitting the road straight to Marrakech. Geoffrey, the boss of Fresh Poulp Records (a Creative Commons netlabel specialized in dub music) was blasting the tracks on the car radio and i would keep asking « Putain c'est quoi ce truc de ouf ? ».
You can imagine the atmosphere, white heat, fast driving, endless sandscape and loud basslines.
So it's time for me i shared a bit of that moment of pleasure, and the moment is right as French producer Thomas Simoes – the man nicknamed Metastaz – has just released a prev. of his last track.
Huge, symphonic, heavy, loud, just great.
Hashashin (Ft. Miscellaneous) by Metastaz
Metastaz Orient Dub Express album is available for free on his bandcamp page. So listen, download, play it loud !
Special attention goes to Orient Folk and Snakes on that album. Huge tracks !

There's my week #02! I took off Wednesday because I ended up resting instead. I didn't modify today — I did 3 miles of recovery run instead of 2. I was feeling a little bit extra.
Total Week #02 mileage: 12.5 mi
Days weightlifting: 1 day only
And in terms of eating, because health isn't all about working out:
- Weekly calorie balance: 1759 calories under maintenance for the week, ~250/day below maintenance target
- Macronutrients: 42/27/31 carb/fat/protein (week 01: 45/27/28) (goal: 45/20/35)
So, week 2 in review.
This week was harder because of the trip in the middle — I ate more/worse and skipped a workout. I don't have a lot of choices for food when I am on a plant trip – you eat what they bring in for lunch; you go where they take you for dinner – so all I could really do was try to stay reasonable overall. And I was exhausted, so the scheduled BR workout just didn't happen.
However, health is about maintenance, and I still managed to net a deficit on the week in calories, plus I did all of my miles (running is the priority right now). So it's not too bad. This can be a bad point for me: week 2, just getting into habits, and the first roadblock hits, and I decide this isn't a reasonable feasible maintainable plan and I toss it all out. I'm staying away from that attitude.
Plus, please note that even though my calorie total is higher, I had more protein this week than last week. Yeah!
For week #03:
There shouldn't be any major upsets this week, except that I'm helping a friend repaint their basement on an admittedly tight schedule, so things may get shifted a night or two — but overall this is another week I should be able to execute.
- Mon: BR or rest
- Tues: 4-5 mi easy/tempo/easy run
- Wed: weights (upper body), BR
- Thurs: rest
- Fri: 75 min long slow run
- Sat: BR/yoga
- Sun: 3 mi easy run + weights
Listing the LSR on Fridays as a time limit instead of a mile limit makes me feel better when I'm doing it — it doesn't matter how slow I'm going, that way, I just have to go for a time. Here we go. 🙂

Posted on May 27, 1996 in Washington Watch
This year's Israeli election, like the peace process itself, could have been a dramatic and defining milestone in Middle East history. Tragic events and weak leaders have combined to lessen the significance of both.
What Israel could have been debating in this election were two diametrically opposed views of the future of the Middle East. What the Israeli people could have received from the Labor party was a vision of peace so attractive that they would have been compelled to support it. But the weak Labor leadership and the trauma caused by terrorist bombings have reshaped this election campaign and blurred the lines between the Labor and Likud parties and their candidates.
Weak leadership is nothing new to the Labor party. For two and half years, unable to forge a majority support base in the country, Labor has squeezed the life out of the peace process. Fearful of the reaction of Israel's right wing political parties and refusing to confront the extremist settler movement, Labor stalled on negotiations with the Palestinians, extorted less than fair concessions out of their weaker negotiating partners and, even after completing agreements, refused to implement many of them (e.g., the Economic Protocols, the safe passage between Gaza and the West Bank, promised prison reforms and redeployment from Hebron, to name just a few).
It was this same weak leadership and susceptibility to pressure from their right-wing opposition that rendered Labor extraordinarily vulnerable to the deplorable tactics of suicide bombers.
Labor's policy of economic closure of the West Bank and Gaza, for example, has been driven more by pressure from Likud than out of an urgency to save the peace process. The punishment imposed on Palestinians is collective without regard to guilt or innocence, severe and excessive in its effects and impact. Labor has insisted that the Palestinians be partners in the crackdown on terror, but they have not begun to treat the Palestinians as partners when it comes to pursuing other important aspects of the peace process – such as the economic benefits of peace.
In the wake of the recent suicide bombings, Labor's election campaign has sought to blur the lines between their position and that of Likud. Shimon Peres has played up security issues, promised financial benefits to the settler movement; pledged an expansion of existing settlements; committed himself to maintaining a united greater Jerusalem under sole Israeli sovereignty; insisted that Israel would maintain the Jordan River as its "security border;" pledged to oppose the right of Palestinian refugees to return; and would submit any agreement with the Palestinians to a national referendum.
It is ironic that the Israeli public's support for peace and realization of the benefits of peace (Israel is today, wealthier, more secure and more recognized than at any time in its history) has been most felt by Likud. Benyamin Netanyahu has been forced to promise that he would accept "what has so far been agreed to with the Palestinians." While promising to add new settlements (as opposed to Peres' position of only expanding existing settlements), and not recognize Palestinian self-determination in the final status negotiations, Netanyahu has been forced to recognize the popularity of peace for most Israelis. He therefore proposed a reconvening of the Madrid Conference in order to keep the peace process alive.
If Labor's drift to the right were not enough to disturb Arabs and confuse even Israeli voters, Peres' massive assault on Lebanon was a critical blow. Witnessing the savagery of the bombings, the deaths of innocent civilians, and the widespread and deliberate destruction of Lebanon's economic infrastructure brought many to wonder what this "peace" was all about. And even in this instance, it was weakness that drove the Labor government's policy.
For a month, Hezbollah, the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) and the South Lebanon Army (SLA) exchanged attacks within the Israeli-occupied sector of Lebanon. While the IDF understood that Hezbollah's attacks were legitimate under the 1993 understanding Israel had agreed to with Lebanon, Peres was under increasing pressure from Likud to act. It was only when Israel attacked civilians outside the "security zone" that Hezbollah began its rocket attacks on Northern Israel; and it was then that Israel responded with its destructive and disproportional assault.
It may be argued by some Israelis and their supporters that Peres' responses to the terror bombings and the situation in Lebanon were necessary to save his electoral chances. But what has been lost as a result of these actions were the perceptual differences between his promised policy of peace and the policy of the Likud.
What Israel's voters will be asked to judge this week is not the actual campaign rhetoric of Labor and Likud (they are too close at times to discern fundamental differences), or the security policies each would pursue (they have, here too, demarcated an equally hard line). If Israel wants peace, and it appears that a majority of the public still does, they will choose Labor based on a hope that Labor will return to the path of peace after May 29. They will vote for a vague hope and not for a compelling vision or a clearly defined difference.
The problem this poses for the Israeli electorate is especially critical for Israel's Arab minority. For years they languished under a kind of internal occupation. They were Arab citizens of the Jewish state, with some rights but second-class citizenship. For many years they were denied even the right to join political parties or to form their own parties. Gradually, they have emerged to the point where, today, they have become the key swing vote in a national election.
Surely it is ironic that Israel, the powerful Jewish state, will likely have its election decided by Arab voters.
The figures are striking. There are 3.9 million voters in Israel, of whom 540,000 are Israeli Arabs – a total of 14% of the electorate! To show how critical their vote can be, one need only look to the following:
Before the assault on Lebanon, about 80% of the Arab voters were with Peres in the polls, but after the assault Arab support fell to 50% – a swing of some 4% of the total vote. In recent weeks Peres' margin over Netanyahu has rarely been greater than 4%.
So important is the Arab vote that one analyst likened Peres to an American white Democrat from the South. It is a fact that in recent years no white Southern Democrat has won the majority of the white vote: when a white Southern Democrat wins it is because the black vote provided the margin of victory.
Lately, Peres has recognized the power of this Arab vote. At a recent campaign stop in an Arab city, Peres did what he had not done anywhere else – he apologized for the assault on Lebanon, saying (in part), "Believe me, I feel pain for every woman and child [who died in the assault]." He also promised to work for equality between Arabs and Jews in Israel and consider the appointment of an Arab to his cabinet.
Not only is the Arab vote important in the vote for Prime Minister, but in the Knesset elections as well. Most commentators have failed to note that in recent polling neither Labor nor Likud with their respective allies appear to be able to secure enough seats in this election for the Knesset majority of 61 needed to form a government. Labor and its allies appear poised to win 51 (of 120) seats while Likud and its allies get about 49. Even if Peres wins the Prime Ministership, he will be forced to add some of the religious parties to his government in order to have a ruling majority. This will further impede his ability to move forward toward peace.
Even more devastating for peace is the fact that Likud and its electoral allies would include the Molodet party which still calls for the "transfer of the Arab population" of the West Bank.
In the meanwhile, the Arab parties appear to be in a position to dramatically increase their numbers. If their vote is more unified than in the past, Arabs would end up with as many as 7 to 10 seats. With 8 seats (which is a stretch, but still a possibility), they would be in a position to determine the next Israeli government. That would pose a huge dilemma for Peres or Netanyahu. Labor has governed for years without 61 Knesset votes – the security and stability of their government has always depended upon the 5 votes they consistently get from the Arab parties. This has provoked Likud to attack Labor for making decisions without a "Jewish majority." If Israeli Arabs realize their full electoral potential, this argument could never again be used.
A final note: despite the failings and weakness of Labor, it would be self-destructive for any Arab to ignore the real danger posed by a return of the Likud to power. As angry as one might justifiably be over Labor's missed opportunity to define itself more sharply, to behave more prudently and to argue its vision of peace more courageously, the choice – even if based on hope alone – seems clear. Strip away Peres and Netanyahu and it becomes even clearer: it becomes a choice between Yossi Beilin, Yossi Sarid and Yael Dayan versus Ariel Sharon, Raphael Eitan and the Molodet party.
Given Labor's failings, this election does not present a perfect choice, but it nevertheless provides a choice.

text: The other day I had to do a short talk about being Baptist at a youth service. Of course I laboured the point that we need to be Christian first and always express our differences with other Christians with humility, respect and love. But I structured the talk around the following metrics as a way for folks to see how important Baptist distinctive were for them. It was a fun way to have the discussion and get them to think about their own beliefs. Afterwards I wondered about turning it into one of those annoying facebook quizzes or putting on the church website.

A deranged man with a knife has a stand-off with officers from Woodstock, VA. Two times he his hit with the Taser. Two times it fails.
A group of officers show just how cool, calm, and collected they are during a stand-off with a knife wielding suspect. As they encircle the man, they maintain lethal options while they attempt to put the man down with the Taser, both attempts fail.
If there had only been one officer on scene, how much differently would this have turned out?

On October 23, 2018, Kozminski University and the CIMA Management Accounting Institute (as part of the CIMA Program at ALK) organized the University Management Accounting Day (UMAD 2018).
During UMAD 2018, students of the best Polish universities in Poland were able to learn more about practical aspects of management accounting because in addition to the lecture given by Tomasz Iwanowicz, PhD: "Control and performance evaluation in practice - real time analysis and data visualization". Representatives of CIMA from Great Britain came to Poland: Shane Balzan, Senior Director, Curriculum Development; Jane O'Rourke, Associate Director, Curriculum Development and Dough Withington, Lead Manager, Curriculum Development, who talked to students about the future of finance.
The UMAD 2018 participants learned about the upcoming changes in the financial industry, issues related to the CIMA curriculum and updating the syllabus to adapt it to the changing business reality around the world. Employers recognize the changes that drives the development of new technologies and the progressing automation of financial positions, which in the near future may lead to the gradual dying out of individual professions. That is why CIMA meets with companies regularly, meets them by updating its syllabus and helps its students better understand new solutions, processes and technological innovations that affect the world of finance. - We want professionals in CIMA certification to keep up with changes and have the opportunity to work (including well-paid positions) in enterprises around the world - says Jakub Bejnarowicz, Regional Director for Europe, Association of International Certified Professional Accountants.
We hope that the next events organized by CIMA in cooperation with the Kozminski University will enjoy similarly high interest from students and high school students (especially those from different cities in Poland taking part in the High School Business Challenge). It is such international meetings that can show young people that thanks to motivation and hard work and professional certificates one can distinguish themselves in the labor market and find a dreamed, well-paid job.
On the 6th of June, 2018 the CIMA Tutor Session took place at Kozminski University. The meeting was conducted by Astrid Zakrzewska FCCA, FCMA, CGMA for academic staff of universities which run the CIMA Programs.
The aim of the meeting was to discuss the content of CIMA syllabus and present CIMA qualification standards. The emphasis was put on presenting the syllabus from the operational level which is based on three areas:
The operational level finishes with the exam checking the implementation of knowledge in real business situations - Operational Case Study. In this way CIMA exams if the academic knowledge is implemented correctly by students in real cases.
At the end of the workshop lecturers expressed large approval for the knowledge of the tutor and her skills in presenting difficult issues using practical, and real-life cases. All participants admitted that preparing students for the Operational Case Study Exam is a huge challenge.
According to Małgorzata Kucharczyk, PhD, the Coordinator of CIMA Program at Kozminski University: "CIMA Tutor Session is a valuable initiative conducted within the CIMA Program at Universities, which was appreciated by lecturers. I hope there will be more workshops like this in the future."
On December 7, 2017 one of the most important CIMA events took place - the Gala Awards. During the ceremony, the people who achieved the highest results from each session were awarded.
The most important members of CIMA also took part in the gala. Our University was represented by Małgorzata Kucharczyk, PhD - the program's coordinator.
On October 27, 2017 there was a meeting organized as part of the University Management Accounting Day at Kozminski University. The meeting was arranged in cooperation with CIMA. The aim of this meeting was to demonstrate KU students present dilemmas and challenges which management accounting faces.
Professor Bartlomiej Nowak, the Vice-Rector for Economic and Social Studies, opened the meeting. The professor presented briefly the importance of management accounting in running an organisation. Moreover, he pointed out possibilities of professional development in this area.
The first speaker was Mr. Aleksander Solski ACMA, CGMA, VP Finance CEE, Unilever Poland. Mr. Solski made a speech "Management accounting in business: good technique + a scientific mind - is it enough" . Thanks to this speech students had a chance to get acquainted with current challenges people who manage large organisations face. Moreover, students could get to know the supporting role of management accounting to people making the decisions. Mr. Solski also discussed the growing importance of non-financial indicators in analyses used in management accounting.
The speech of Aleksander Solski truly interested our students. They asked about issues connected with modern tools of management accounting. Students wanted to know in which areas of operating an entity, management accounting tools are used. Furthermore, students were curious why and how professionals refer to soft management and analytical skills.
Mr. Jakub Bejnarowicz, Associate Director, Central and Easter Europe, CIMA, delivered a speech after the lecture of Mr. Aleksander Solski. Mr. Bejnarowicz got students acquainted with the way CIMA operates and how it certifies knowledge and skills of its students. Mr Bejnarowicz also stressed the fact that the learning process never ends. Moreover, he presented how CIMA supports professional development of its members. Mr. Bejnarowicz also pointed out the process of changes in the content of CIMA's syllabuses. These changes are connected with the cooperation between CIMA and professionals who deal with management accounting.
Mrs. Iwona Cieślak gave a speech after a short break. She made a speech about "Accounting in a managerial perspective. From human assets to financial income" . Mrs Cieślak engaged students during her lecture into a discussion concerning the identification of critical success factors.
At the end of the meeting, during the informal part, students talked with Mrs. Sylwia Dubiel, who is Associate Manager, University Partnerships, CEE - Management Accounting, CIMA. KU Students had a chance to talk about the common program run by CIMA and KU - CIMA Program at KU.
We would like to thank all the participants and speakers for attending this event.
Lecturers of Kozminski University took part in the National Assembly of Accounting Faculties "Accounting 2.0. Contemporary problems in science, didactics and practice of accounting".
During the Convention there was a meeting organized by CIMA - CIMA Tutor Session. During the meeting, issues related to CIMA certification levels, examinations conducted at Pearson Vue Centers were discussed.

Hana, a hard-working college student, falls in love with a mysterious man who attends one of her classes though he is not an actual student. As it turns out, he is not truly human either. On a full moon night, he transforms, revealing that he is the last werewolf alive. Despite this, Hana's love remains strong, and the two ultimately decide to start a family. Hana gives birth to two healthy children—Ame, born during rainfall, and Yuki, born during snowfall—both possessing the ability to turn into wolves, a trait inherited from their father. All too soon, however, the sudden death of her lover devastates Hana's life, leaving her to raise a peculiar family completely on her own. The stress of raising her wild-natured children in a densely populated city, all while keeping their identity a secret, culminates in a decision to move to the countryside, where she hopes Ame and Yuki can live a life free from the judgments of society. Wolf Children is the heartwarming story about the challenges of being a single mother in an unforgiving modern world. [Written by MAL Rewrite]

Bakemono no Ko is the tale of a boy and a beast: both lonely, both stubborn, and both strong. For nine-year-old Ren, things could hardly be worse. His mother has passed away in a traffic accident, his father is nowhere to be found, and his extended family is cold and distant. Desperate, Ren runs away to the mean streets of Shibuya to try and survive on his own. In the beast realm of Shibuten, the fierce warrior Kumatetsu is certainly feared, but not especially liked or respected. When the Lord decides to retire and become a God, Kumatetsu would be a natural candidate to replace him; he and the noble Lord Iouzan are the two strongest in the land. But Kumatetsu is so anti-social he's never even managed to hold on to a disciple. And until he proves he can, he'll never be a serious contender. When Ren gets lost in a maze of alleyways and finds himself in the strange land of Shibuten, fate brings these two stubborn and fierce-willed souls together, and Kumatestu re-names the boy "Kyuuta." Each of them has much they can teach the other, but where these two are concerned, nothing is going to be easy. As Kyuuta adjusts to his new home he finds himself torn between two worlds—two worlds that are far less separate than either the Boy or the Beast realizes.
