From London, UK:
I am a Bulgarian national living in London.
I would like to enquire about a product called PP Nikotinamid. It has been recommended to a family friend, whose grand-daughter has just been diagnosed with diabetes at the age of 8. As I understand it is in quite a severe form. Unfortunately, I do not know any medical details, as I was told about it by my mother on the phone. The family have been trying to find the above drug in Bulgaria and Turkey without any success. I was wondering whether you could give me any indication under what name it is registered (I was dictated PP Nikotinamid on the phone) and how I can help this child get it.
Nicotinamide is being investigated as possibly having a role in the prevention of diabetes. There is no reason to give it to your friend's grand-child.

What Clients Say..
I have been fortunate enough to attend one of Ed Gideon's presentations during a recent "We Build Character" events. I also built a working connection with Ed subsequent to the event. Mr. Gideon does a superb job of collating and harmonizing the day to day business with the "Ranger's Creed". Ed provides inspiration to all who hear his comments. He desires to take his message/training to additional companies and organizations in the Detroit area. I indicated I would support his effort and forward his request. I am confident having Ed work with Masco Cabinetry would benefit the corporation in many ways.
After losing our largest customer in late 2008, we knew that our business needed a solid plan of attack in order to rebound in 2009. Ed Gideon, ActionCOACH, has provided the solutions to our frustration and lack of direction. Not only has his unique approach to coaching improved our bottom line but it has renewed a positive attitude in our 20 year old small business. By implementing his strategies and discussing our challenges with Ed, we not only survived the economic downturn but we have had more fun doing it!

Working in an industry where I am at the mercy of the weather, taking a new approach and perspective has helped me get focused, WRITE my goals, and grow my business. I have a really hard time with structure and completing tasks. The accountability piece of your program helps me incorporate my creative side with my productivity. Thank you so much for being available! Plus, I love our conversations about the Law of Attraction."
MSW, LCSW, President
Coach Ed, I just wanted to take a few moments to say Thank you. I am so grateful that I met you. You have not only shown me the importance of setting specific goals, but how to achieve them. Through your various workshops, seminars, profit club, and one on one coaching, you have helped me begin to pave a road to success. Your coaching expects a lot of me, but its fun and I enjoy seeing the growth I have made professionally and personally. Your coaching has helped on many tasks. To name a few: financials, day to day operations, expectations of employees, test and measuring results, writing ads that work, and my favorite … celebrating my accomplishments, big and small. I look forward to working with you for many years. With your coaching, our 25 year old family business will keep flourishing. I cannot emphasize enough to business owners that the best investment a business can make, is to invest in itself with a business coach. Action Coach Ed, you are awesome. Thanks so much!!!

Xoxide X-Hurricane (White)
Xoxide :: Monday, June 30, 2003
"It is obvious we went the full nine yards, when you realize there are 9 case cooling fans fitted inside the case. Four 80mm front intake fans pull air from the front bezel, which is designed with slots to allow good flow into the case. The side and top panels of the case are machine stamped, and fitted with three 92mm cooling fans. The rear of the case is stamped with two 80mm cooling fans, each with chrome finger guards for the best possible airflow. This case however boasts more than just a massive number of cooling fans, as we know this is not the only thing that matters when it comes to proper design. We cut the regular chassis mounted grills for the fans, and replaced them with chrome guards where applies. This greatly improves air movement over traditional designs. The bezel is also fitted with two front USB connections, so your hands don't need to near any of the many dangerous spinning components, … just kidding."
Evercool NW9F715CA Pentium 4 Heatsink Review
Frosty Tech :: Sunday, June 29, 2003
"Countless heatsink designs have been cast into aluminum in an effort to meet the requirements of both low cost and high thermal efficiency. Aluminum extrusions have typically been the most popular option, and with the need to satisfy performance users, copper inserts have become a frequent addition. Evercool have recently released the NW9F715CA heatsink which is designed for the socket 478 platform. The heatsink breaks with tradition and features an extruded aluminum heatsink with soldered-in copper base insert. The heatsink and fan are separate units, with the clipping mechanism and fan coming as one entire assembly. Because of the way the clip and fan are assembled, the heatsink is limited in the size of cooling system it can support. Unless a 70mm-80mm fan adaptor is at hand, 70mm fans are the largest that any user will be able to use with the Evercool NW9F715CA cooler."
Prolink FX 5600 Ultimate Golden Limited Videocard Review
PCStats :: Sunday, June 29, 2003
"Based on DirectX 7 Hardware, the GeForce4 MX was closer to a GeForce2 class card then the DirectX 8 GeForce4 Ti's were. nVIDIA, being the smart company that they are, noticed this and you can bet that there's no way they'll make the same mistake twice. Enter the GeForceFX family of cards. It's nice and refreshing to see that all GeForceFX's are DirectX 9 compatible, not just the top of the line FX 5800/5900 class cards. That feature is probably the main reason why so many retailers tell me even the budget FX 5200's are selling well. Today we're going to be checking out not a budget FX 5200, rather Prolink's mainstream GeForceFX 5600 Ultimate Golden Limited 256MB videocard. Don't be fooled by the internal NV31 core code name, the GeForceFX 5600 GPU is slower then that of the NV30 (FX 5800), but faster than the NV34 (FX 5200)."
CoolerMaster Aero 7 HSF Review
OCIA :: Sunday, June 29, 2003
"The first thing you'll notice about this heatsink is it's big. This provided a bit of a problem for me in that I have an Asus A7N8X Deluxe motherboard which I dearly love. It is so crammed with extras that there wasn't much room to work with on the install. I eventually broke down, removed the motherboard and the sink installed in a snap. This was because in my PC75 the chip placement means there was only about an inch of clearance between the bottom of the power supply and the base of the heatsink. I didn't feel this was worth the risk of cracking the chip and after a couple of tries I removed the motherboard. The thumb clip was a breeze and the motherboard was installed and it was all running in less than an hour total."
Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 9 200 GB Hard Drive review
The Tech Lounge :: Sunday, June 29, 2003
"We all know that when it comes to hard drives, size matters. With all this advancing technology, software, and media, you need some beefy storage to contain it. Maxtor's latest hard drive is the Diamond Plus 9, a 200 gigabyte 7200 RPM hard drive. If that isn't enough for you, I don't know what is. Not only does this drive have an extreme storage capacity, but it also has speed to back it up. Boasting a high cache buffer of 8 megabytes, a 9.4 ms average seek time and the new Fluid Dynamics Bearing Motor, this is one of the best ATA drives on the market."
OCZ Dominator 2cu Heatsink Review
GruntvillE :: Sunday, June 29, 2003
"…you just broke the bank on the new motherboard, CPU, and a kicking video card, so you have to do this without spending the last of your Bawls funds. So, with that in mind we are taking a look at the 2nd generation of the Dominator HSF from OCZ, the Dominator 2-Cu. As you might guess the Cu stands for Copper. Unlike the pervious generation of the Dominator this one has a copper core that will sit right on the CPU core for better cooling. So let's see how this inexpensive cooler holds up."
Ideazon Zboard Review
MODTHEBOX! :: Sunday, June 29, 2003
"Across the top of the Zboard are 17 clear buttons, each labeled with associated icons. The first seven are media controls, such as Play, Pause and Stop, while the other ten are quick launch keys that can be configured to suit ones tastes. What would have been really impressive is if these keys had a backlight feature added. These keys are capable of launching Outlook, Internet Explorer, a favorite search engine as well as the Ideazon website and the Zboard configuration utility."
Zalman's ZM-MFC1 Multi Fan Speed Controller review
Tech-Dreams :: Sunday, June 29, 2003
It seems now, more and more, that one of the most necessary peripherals for a modded computer is most definitely the fan controller. It would be so odd just to see a computer that does not have one. Everywhere you turn now, you see a review for a fan controller or some such device. I'm sure you have read at least five or six reviews of controllers by now. Today, we are going to look at something that breaks the ice in its own way, a unit that combines two of the most POPULAR forms of fan controllers together, into one sweet unit.
Antec Sonata Super Mini Tower review
SystemCooling :: Sunday, June 29, 2003
"We normally don't review many cases constructed of steel, but as you'll see the Antec Sonata is one very special case for many reasons. With the front bezel constructed of plastic, to its outer shell of steel with its jet black, highly reflective automotive finish the Antec Sonata's superior quality is a pleasure to behold!"
Voided Warranty takes a look at a Wooden PC Case
Voided Warranty :: Sunday, June 29, 2003
"I took the liberty of testing the woods durability by slamming my keys against it many times. The case suffered no visual damage at all. I asked the creator of this fine case if he could make a case that wood match the finish of a persons desk. I was informed that this could indeed be done."
Five Way Performance PSU Roundup
TweakTown :: Sunday, June 29, 2003
"It wasn't too terribly long ago that the power supply was just another component that had to be bought when it was time to build a new system. But times have changed with the advent of the newer more powerful computers hitting the market. Come join Mike "Darthtanion" Wright as he takes a look at five power supplies and gives some solid answers as to whether it might be just the right one for your own system."
Leadtek WinFast A310 Ultra TD MyVivo Review
Bjorn3D :: Sunday, June 29, 2003
"Today, we are going to take a look at the high end of the A310 series, the WinFast A310 Ultra TD MyVivo, which as noted above is based on NVIDIA's FX 5600 GPU. As you may already know, this is a very capable midrange graphics processor that, as we will see, really flexes its muscle when GPU intensive features such as anti-aliasing and anisotropic filtering are enabled.

CoolerMaster Aero 7+ Review
The Tech Lounge :: Friday, June 20, 2003
Overall this is an outstanding CPU cooler. It performs better than the roaring Volcano 11 and looks cooler, sporting an innovative blower design. The 3.5″ mount simply won't mount, but CoolerMaster is working on a solution. I would also like to see an optional temperature monitor to control fan speed like the similarly priced Volcano 11, maybe in a future blower fan? If you are looking for a CPU cooler that does the job, looks great, and remains quiet, look no further.

3dgameman :: Friday, June 20, 2003
"This product has major differences over conventional memory and the biggest difference is it uses the advanced WLCSP (Wafer Level Chipset Scale Packaging) for the memory modules. This means less heat and much higher speeds are possible. Even though this memory is rated at 400MHz DDR it can go much higher. The Watch the Video to find out more…" ~3dGameMan.com

"Vantec has continued its tradition of making stylish add-on components with the release of the Nexus Multi-function Panel. The Nexus Multi-function Panel will make controlling and monitoring CPU temps a snap. With the great design and ease of installation anyone should find the Multi-function Panel a great buy. With 4 different colored themes to choose from it should match any case and will look great."

Heat a heavy pan over medium high heat.
Season fish on meat side with salt and pepper. Lightly dredge fish in flour and shake off excess. When pan is good and hot, add Canola oil followed immediately by 1 tablespoon butter. As soon as foaming subsides, place fish in pan with the skin side down. Jiggle pan for the first 10 seconds to keep the fish from sticking. Cook until golden crust forms on meat. Carefully turn fish away from you and again jiggle pan for the first few seconds. Cook until skin turns golden brown. Remove to a warm plate.
Pour out the cooking fat, add remaining butter and quickly fry the capers. Remove pan from the heat, add lemon juice to pan and swirl. Pour sauce over the fish and serve.

I love trying new food items, new food ingredients from different cultures and traditions as long as it is healthy and good for me. I am sure by now all of you are well aware of this as my blog is testimony to this fact. This particular salad that I am bringing to you today as part of the Thanksgiving DFT is one such foodie adventure of mine ! The whole discovery of this recipe makes for interesting dinner conversation. I typically shop at this farmer's market in my neighborhood that is Jewish. They have good produce at a very reasonable price. Once when I went shopping I saw fennel bulbs with the greens on it for sale for 50 cents each. The bulbs were huge. I looked at it and thought to myself that if there is such a demand for these bulbs, there has to be some recipe that I could use it in! I know that fennel seeds are good for the digestive system as we Indians use it a lot , then the bulb and leaves also have to have nutritional value to it. I bought a bulb and reached out to my DFT team of bloggers for recipes. They suggested using it in soups and stews. But, for some reason I was not convinced. My quest for a good recipe continued. A couple of days later I went back to the farmer's market to pick up something else and saw fennel again. I also saw a middle-aged Jewish lady buying it. I decided to ask her what she did with it and how to use it. In her broken English, she told me that they make salad with it. I asked her if the leaves had to be separated or the bulb had to be cooked. She patiently told me that no, just chop the whole thing up and use it in the salad. I was shocked to say the least! I asked her what dressing is to be used. She said just add in salt, vinegar, olive oil and salt.
I decided to be brave and give it a try. I did exactly what she told me to: chopped the entire fennel bulb, leaves and all, added salt, pepper, apple cider vinegar and olive oil and mixed it! Believe it or not, it was one of the most refreshing salads I have eaten! I was apprehensive about the strong taste of the fennel, but I was wrong! This is also one of the easiest salads that I have put together. This salad is now a regular in my home. Add this salad to your thanksgiving dinner menu. Read on for tips from Geeta Kakade on how diabetics can effectively deal with holiday meals and holiday eating.
Servings: 2-3 ( about 1 cup per person)
Fennel bulb: 1 medium-sized one
Apple cider vinegar: 3 tbsp
Extra Virgin Olive oil: 3 tbsp
Salt: a pinch ( can adjust as per individual taste)
Freshly ground black pepper : 1/2 tsp
Wash the fennel bulb and leaves thoroughly and then pat them dry using a paper towel/ or a kitchen towel.
Chop the leaves and the bulb finely. Take it in a bowl.
In a small jar, take apple cider vinegar, olive oil, salt and pepper. Shake well.
Add this dressing to the above bowl and mix thoroughly.
Keep it in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
Serve chilled. I am bringing this to the wonderful Angie's Fiesta Friday #96.

Spicy Jalapeño Hummus by Shailja
Hot and Sour Mixed Veggie Soup by Swati
I now like to use oil and acid in the proportion of 1:1 as opposed to the recommended 3:1 as I don't like to use too much oil. I also make a bigger portion of this vinaigrette and use as needed in the salad. Sometimes, you might want the salad to have a little more punch, then you can use more of the vinaigrette.
If you don't have apple cider vinegar, you can use regular vinegar.

Footnotes ( tip for healthy living):Fennel is a perennial herb belonging to the carrot family and is closely related to parsley, dill and coriander. It is extremely therapeutic for the digestive system. It aids digestion, prevents bloating and is known for it's anti-oxidant activities due to the unique phytonutrients it contains.It is also a great source of vitamin C, folate, potassium and dietary fiber. It obviously has no calories and a very low glycemic index.
Article by Geeta Kakade:
'Some ways a diabetic tries to resist food overindulgence at festivals, during the holiday season and at get togethers all year round.'
Its a challenge...always a challenge. It doesn't matter if you are in your own home or in someone else's home: resisting the lure of food isn't easy. Here are some tips that help me when I'm at a party and I hope will help you. 1. The day you're going our, say for dinner, follow strict dietary guidelines for the other meals during the day. Balancing your sugar will give you a head start and will allow you to have a little 'extra'.
2. Don't skip your exercise on this day...exercise helps regulate hunger pangs.
3. Before you go out, eat a bowl of salad or some fruit...an apple works best for me.
4. Insist on serving yourself, then stop and look at your plate before you eat...both for appetizers and main course. If someone forces you to have something by putting it on your plate, leave it there. I get rid of the stuff on my plate very discreetly.
5. Remember food will always be there and the healthier you are the more you can continue to enjoy it at future parties. The meal you're at is NOT your last meal.
6. Respond to comments like, "What! That's all you're eating?" with a firm but pleasant comeback. I tell people I'm there for the company and I enjoy myself best if I don't have to lose the next day to 'not feeling well' because I ate too much.
7. Love sweets like I do? Make adjustments in the meal to accommodate your craving. I find skipping either the naan or the rice helps me at a party.
Okay so you read articles like this all the time and know what's right. What happens when you still fall off the dietary wagon once in a way? No big deal! (as long as its not all the time.) Pick yourself up, dust yourself off and get back on...all we diabetics can do is keep trying to do our best.

It's truly hard to comprehend that 1991 was 27 years ago. It doesn't seem possible that almost three decades have elapsed since the Atlanta Braves were one of the sports stories of the year (not just in Georgia) and the Atlanta Falcons actually showed signs of turning things around.
The 1991 season for the Atlanta Braves began with very modest expectations. The 1990 season had shown little, if any, reason for hope. The team seemed beyond hope in 1990 with another last place division finish.
However, even in Major League Baseball a little fine tuning of the roster can go a long way. The addition of players such as Terry Pendleton and Sid Bream, combined with a very solid pitching staff, certainly gave the Braves credibility on paper.
As the new season began there was clearly a different attitude. Games were contested if not outright won and there seemed to be a growing sense of optimism with each series the team played.
It's doubtful anyone would have honestly predicted a World Series appearance, but things were certainly on the upswing for Atlanta's professional baseball team
On the gridiron, the Falcons were playing their final season at Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium. (On a personal note, I've often wondered why a more creative name was not given for that complex.)
The following season would see the team move inside into the Georgia Dome. The Falcons had shown some signs of life in 1990, winning their final two games of the season despite finishing at 5-11 overall.
As it turned out, the 1991 season didn't exactly show great signs of promise early as the Falcons lost their first two games to Kansas City on the road and Minnesota at home. However, the NFL in its own way has a very long season and ultimately the Falcons would finish 10-6 and make the postseason.
Not only did the Falcons get into the playoffs, but they won a wildcard game against the rival Saints. For those who may have forgotten or those who were not around then, the finish to the game was one of the most exciting in franchise history.
Atlanta was trying to hold on for a playoff win on the road but New Orleans was driving. Tim McKyer, however, intercepted a pass to seal the win. Before the play was over, however, McKyer had pitched the football back to teammate Deion Sanders who danced around several would-be tacklers before giving the football to another teammate in Joe Fishback.
It was a risky play as a fumble could have given the Saints another chance. However, the Falcons, whose motto in 1991 was "Too Legit to Quit," admittedly lived on the edge under head coach Jerry Glanville.
The Falcons were unable to win the following week against eventual Super Bowl champion Washington. The Redskins were a team that relied on a massive offensive line and were able to control the game against Atlanta's undersized defense.
Of course, a heavy rain that week in Washington gave an even bigger advantage to the home team as their size countered the quickness of the Falcons.
It was also reported that Washington team officials watered down the field to make it even more advantageous for the Redskins.
With the 2018 Atlanta Braves seemingly on the rise (Mark Lemke, a star in 1991, made recent comparisons between the two squads) and the Falcons now a playoff contender each season, it just seemed appropriate to look back at 1991.
It was a different sports landscape then, but two of our state's professional teams gave their long-suffering fans something to cheer about.
Much has changed since that time, both in the sports world and the world around us, but the sports memories still remain strong.

I had fun at Walgreens last week, kicking off my reentry into the wonderful world of couponing. I got a bunch of free and really cheap products this week. Let me share:
- (8) Anti-Itch Creams
- (3) Contact Cleaning Kits
- (10) Bottles of Witch Hazel
- (20) Boxes of Nutri-Grain Bars
Everything but the Nutri-Grain bars was completely free. We love Nutri-Grain bars, but at about $3 a box, they are too expensive to have on hand on a regular basis. So, I generally wait until I find a good sale. Well, at Walgreens last week I was able to get 20 boxes for $1 a box. How? Do you see the "$5 in Coupon Savings" image on the front of the boxes in the picture? On the back of the boxes are coupons. One of them is $1 off 2 boxes of Nutri-Grain bars. I used these coupons (cut out of the box AFTER I purchased them…I had one coupon on hand before I started) and combined them with a Walgreens sale. It went like this.
Walgreens sale was 2 boxes for $5 with a $2 RR. A RR is a Register Reward, Walgreen's in-house rewards program. So, $5 minus $2RR minus $1 coupon equals $1 a box!
The other items were free with RR. So, like for the witch hazel, it was $4 and gave you a $4RR. The only catch is I couldn't use my $4RR from the witch hazel to buy more witch hazel.
But, I could use it to buy itch cream, which would produce a RR which I could use to buy witch hazel. So, I bought a lot of itch cream (that I really don't use) and contact lens cleaner (that I have no need for) in order to "roll" my register rewards into free witch hazel (which I do use). I have never seen witch hazel as one of my freebie deals before, so I did my best to get as many as I could.
It's all pretty time consuming, but fun! And the savings can be astronomical. I generally use SavingsAngel to match my coupons and sales weekly for me, so I don't have to take the time tracking it all down. Here's a fun report I wrote on SavingsAngel and how it works.
This week at Walgreens I will be scoring a bunch of Starbucks energy drinks, and they will actually PAY me to take them. Will post details next Monday for you. For now, here is this week's free printable grocery store coupons:
$1.00 off Cat's Pride cat litter
$1.00 off one BISSELL Deep Cleaning Formula
$1.50 off ON ONE (1) BOTTLE OF SK ENERGY
$2.00 off any Lotrimin or Lotrimin Ultra
$2.00 off (2) TWO Dial Body Washes
(these are buy one get one free at CVS this week)
Make sure you print them NOW, while you are thinking about it. Often, there are only a limited number of coupons available, and when the limit is reached, they get pulled from the site. So get them now. And if you are ready to get started with coupons, make sure you check out my 90-minute "crash-course" and you can hit the ground running this afternoon.

Now companies are interesting to me yet not for the sort of question written down here. The real scientists hardly show up there. I can give some extreme examples. As for Germany, realize that in vaste majority of IT related companies there, you won't even get a manager without PHD degree. My shelves here are overloaded with PHD thesises from German guys which i would qualify as 'management paper'. Utter useless writings - you can waste hours reading it and it just wastes your time. So a master degree won't be Andrew Holways goal - a PHD will be - if he wants to become manager :) On Oct 24, 2012, at 3:52 PM, Hearns, John wrote: > Have you thought of joining a professional society? > > For instance the IEEE or (again in the UK) the British Computer > Society. > then apply for Chartered Engineer status. > > > > The reason I am suggesting this is that quite often in the UK a job > requires > a degree OR EQUIVALENT > In Germany things are of course different. > > The contents of this email are confidential and for the exclusive > use of the intended recipient.

Of course my faith, family, and friends are part of the reason why I love this holiday so much...but there is one more thing. GIVING! I love to give gifts. I love the anticipation I feel when someone is opening a gift I gave to them. Seeing the excitement on their face and seeing how loved they feel is priceless to me. I have never been able to give people expensive gifts but I have always tried to make the gifts I am able to give special and meaningful. I spend time thinking about each person before I go shopping and I think I like the thought and planning aspect more than I like the shopping itself!
In honor of it being the season to give, I will be posting a series of entries to help you find the perfect gift for everyone on your list. Tonight I will focus on the women in your life and every gift featured is handmade by an Etsy seller and is under $26.00!
Later this week I will be posting gifts for children! If you have a child or know of something a child would love, please comment and I will feature your gift idea! Also, feel free to comment with an inexpensive gift you'd love to give or receive this holiday season.

What's cookin', good lookin'?
The three musketeer-ettes coerced me into letting them use the kitchen even though I was freaking out waiting for the Guess ladies to show up for their first paid for class. The Guess girls do keep me guessing as they don't smile much and I can't tell if they hate me or if they just hate exercise. I smelled cigarette smoke on at least one of them. Anyway, they are, as predicted, growing on me. I may adopt them Angelina Jolie style and take lots of paparazzi photos of us together holding hands. Or perhaps my neighbors who were glued to their windows during the class -- it never occurred to me to lower the music volume -- have in mind one of those lovely photos of us in orange jumpsuits holding up numbers and looking grim.

Today's thought from Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation is:
The one lesson my dad taught me:
If you're going to do anything in life, do it right.
— Monty Cralley
Our parents may have had a way of instructing that often bordered on shaming us. No matter what we might remember about it, or them, they meant well. Their own experiences colored how they parented us. This pattern was probably played out in our own parenting, too. We all did the best we could. None of us did a perfect job. But now that we have the time to contemplate the past, we might want to consider forgiving our parents if we still harbor any grudges. Or we might want to make amends to our children or other family members if we are able to see our own failings now.
We made tons of mistakes getting to an older age. Some were intentional; most were not. Do we have to redress all of them? Actually, we don't even have to acknowledge any of them. But if we do, we'll feel far better about ourselves and we'll have helped to break the cycle of the poor parenting we might have experienced.
We all have a chance to do something significant in life. This doesn't have to mean inventing a tool or a drug that will help millions of people. It's really quite easy. Smile at a stranger today, for starters. Consider putting aside an old grudge. Apologize for an unkind action.
I can do something really important today. Am I willing to examine how I treat other people?

Coming soon
The unavailability of official representation at the Ambassadorial level in Holland in the 80s necessitated the need for an organization that will lead and seek the welfare of the Ghanaian immigrants in The Hague and its metropolis. It is obvious that people of the same nationality and culture acting in harmony can solve problems easier. They can also be properly represented and their views better articulated when they act in unison. That in a nutshell was the bases for the formation of the Ghanatta Foundation.
Ghanatta Foundation is a non-profit organization founded in 1993 under the Dutch government's regulations for the welfare of minorities. The Foundation is registered at the Dutch Chamber of Commerce with number 411.58.140 and has its Head Office in The Hague. The overall objective is to assist the Ghanaian community in the areas of social issues such as welfare, education, employment and to help them integrate better within the Dutch multi-cultural society.
Other aims of the Foundation are as follows:
1. To provide Ghanaians with wider and relevant information through Radio Ghanatta, Ghanatta TV and the news magazine "Nkwantabisa". 2. To organize Ghanaian cultural activities within the City for a better understanding of our culture by our Dutch hosts; especially the youth. 3. To help Ghanaians and other English speaking Africans with lessons in Dutch, through the Program "Let's Speak Dutch" on Radio Ghanatta. 4. To find ways to portray the Ghanaian in a positive image. 5. To fight against all forms of injustice, which may confront Ghanaians at the workplace, school, home etc. 6. To provide help and offer assistance to every Ghanaian in the city irrespective of sex, religion, culture and tribe. 7. To help the less privileged back in Ghana wherever possible. 8. Walk-in service for help in Filling of Forms, Translation, Writing and Reading of letters and documents, general welfare issues like settling of family and other disputes.9. General Welfare issues as arranging burials of the dead with Dutch Social Service support. 10.Liaise with The Embassy of The Republic of Ghana in The Netherlands on Consular issues.
The activities of the organization are coordinated by a team of well motivated volunteers whose ages range from 18 to 64.The 9-member executive board is under the chairmanship of Mr. L.F. Bempah with Mr. M. Frimpong as general manager/secretary,Mr. A. King Dankwa as financial secretary, Mr. Benson Darkwah as studio manager, Mr. E. K. Wireko Mpianim as program manager,Mr. P. Opoku Addo as technical manager, Mr. K.O.A. Sarpong, Mr. Akrofi Donkor and Ms. Elizabeth A. Brayie as members.

Spirit finds its Pot of Gold
Opportunity heads down deep
After a two-month drive, the Spirit rover has reached the base of Columbia Hills.
|Cobra Hoods. This animation flips back and forth between left and right eye images of the odd rock formation dubbed "Cobra Hoods" (center top). The images were taken by the panoramic camera on the Mars Exploration Rover Spirit. Rover scientists say this resistant rock is unlike anything they've seen on Mars so far. Spirit will investigate the rock in coming sols. These pictures was captured on sol 156 (June 11, 2004).
Credit: NASA/JPL
Some of the first things the scientists noticed about the Columbia geology were small round nodules that looked very similar to the hematite "blueberries" previously found on Mars. Many of the blueberries on Columbia Hills are more football-shaped than spherical, however, so these nodules might not be hematite concretions.
One rock, called "Pot of Gold" is encrusted with the blueberry nodules. The nodules appear to rest on layered bedding planes, and look well organized. "It's difficult to imagine that this is a random conglomerate of debris," says science team member Larry Soderblom of the US Geological Survey.
Other rocks on Columbia Hills resemble hooded cobras. The scientists have named these 3- centimeter high rocks "Cobra Heads," and think they may be the remnants of hard, encrusted outer material whose softer middles have rotted away. The Cobra Heads and Pot of Gold are part of a jumble of rocks that have cascaded down from a higher rock outcrop. Spirit will attempt to reach this outcrop, provided the rover can navigate the steep slope of the hill.
On the other side of the planet, the rover Opportunity is already five meters down into the large Endurance crater.
"Our early look at the geology in front of us suggests that we will get more insight into the history of water on Mars," says science team member Scott McLennan of the State University of New York in Stony Brook.
Opportunity is currently analyzing an evaporite rock called Tennessee, and scientists believe this will be one of the last measurements of this type of rock as the rover creeps further down into the crater. One future target for Opportunity is a "contact" rock – a type of sedimentary rock that often indicates environmental change.
There appear to be three different sub-units of rocks past the contact rock, even deeper down into the crater. The scientists want to study these rocks but aren't sure if they can descend past the contact rock, since the slope of the crater walls will then approach 30 degrees, which is right at the margin of the rover's ability.
Although the rover missions were planned for three months, they are now in their fifth month of operation. The scientists will continue to operate the rovers as long as possible.
Spirit has experienced some recent difficulties in communication, due to increasingly cold temperatures. The cold affected Spirit's receiver, altering the range of its sweep as it tried to lock on to the radio frequency sent from Earth.
|This false-color image taken by the panoramic camera on the Mars Exploration Rover Spirit shows a close-up of the rock dubbed "Pot of Gold" (upper left), which is located near the base of the "Columbia Hills" in Gusev Crater. Scientists are intrigued by this unusual-looking, nodule-covered rock and plan to investigate its detailed chemistry in coming sols. This picture was taken on sol 159 (June 14, 2004).

"Spirit's gotten a little hard of hearing, though that's due to temperature, not due to age," says Mark Adler, mission manager at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. "She's also experienced a little bit of arthritis in one of her joints, and that is due to age."
Spirit's "arthritis" is in the motor for the right front wheel. The motor is taking two to three times the electrical current that the other wheels are taking to do the same job, and that current draw is steadily increasing. There appears to be some sort of resistance in the gearbox, and the scientists are trying various methods to solve the problem. They may have to drive the rover with only five wheels, turning on the sixth wheel as needed.
The rovers will have to contend with decreased sunlight in the coming weeks, and therefore will not be able to generate as much power from their solar panels.
"We're headed to a confluence of bad things for the rovers around mid-September," says Adler. The sun on Mars is currently in the northern hemisphere, and it will reach its northern-most point in late August. Mars, with its elliptical orbit, will then be as far away from the sun as its going to go, and the distance between Earth and Mars will be at its greatest at the same time.
|This map of "Endurance" Crater was made by combining images from the camera on NASA's orbiting Mars Global Surveyor with images from the NASA Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity descent image motion estimation system, panoramic and navigation cameras.
Credit: NASA/JPL
The scientist are planning to cut back or suspend communications for a week or two during this time, and get the rovers in position to increase their exposure to sunlight. Because Opportunity is currently on a slope, it is getting more sun now than before. But Spirit is getting less sun, because Spirit is farther south than Opportunity. Scientists plan to maneuver Spirit onto a slope and point its solar panels north to increase its chance of survival.

Buzzfeed & Quizzes
I agree with Baer, that people will respond to a product, or in this case, a quiz that is easy and fun for them to look at. If they like a certain show or movie or musical artist; they will take all those quizzes shared by their Facebook friends? Why? Because people want to know more about themselves, whether or not the quizzes actually tell real information; its always something positive that is said about them and they want to relate to what they like most. The fact that the editors/publishers had a hard time with the quizzes is something else but as far as I know, my friends have always been into the quizzes, but now that it isn't so difficult for them to use; it makes it that much easier for them to produce lots of new quizzes that people are clicking and interacting with.

Syllabus for LDR-419
Nonprofit Leadership provides students with comprehensive knowledge and approach to nonprofit leadership and management. The course covers areas essential to effective leadership in today's nonprofit organization including governance, director and board responsibilities, social responsibility, strategic planning, fund development, financial accountability, human resource, and volunteer management. Woven through the course are the three key themes of social responsibility and leadership; multi-sector collaboration; and service and careers in the nonprofit sector. Coupled with traditional areas of nonprofit leadership and management, these themes create the innovative educational aspects of this course.
By successfully completing the learning activities of the course, you should be able to:
You will need the following materials to do the work of the course. The required textbook is available from the University's textbook supplier, MBS Direct.
Note: You will also be required to read articles that can be accessed through the myEdison portal. For articles that are available through the New Jersey State Library, you will need a library card. Sign up for your free card at the link below. Be sure to sign up early in the semester as it can take a little time to receive your card. https://www.njstatelib.org/research_library/get_a_library_card/state_employee_and_tesu_students/
Nonprofit Leadership is a three-credit online course, consisting of four modules. Modules include an overview, learning objectives, study materials, and activities. Module titles and sub-topics are listed below.
Nature, Function and Scope of The Nonprofit Sector
Nonprofit Environment
Values, Ethics and Nonprofits
Social Sector Challenges and Leadership
Governance and Leadership
Leadership: Values, Mission, Ethics
Fund Raising and Philanthropy
Society and Social Responsibility – Does Leadership Make a Difference?
Strategic Alliances and Collaborations
The course requires you to complete eight written assignments which includes an organizational analysis, an organizational financial analysis, and a PowerPoint presentation. You are also required to participate in seven graded online discussion forums and an ungraded "Introductions" forum in Module 1 of the course. For your final paper, you are required to write a case study based research paper.
Consult the Course Calendar for assignment due dates.
One or more of your course activities may utilize a tool designed to promote original work and evaluate your submissions for plagiarism. More information about this tool is available in this document.
In addition to an ungraded "Introductions" forum in Module 1, Nonprofit Leadership requires you to participate in seven graded discussion forums based on information from the textbook and journal articles.
Communication with the mentor and among fellow students is a critical component of online learning. Participation in online discussions involves two distinct activities: an initial response to a posted question (discussion thread) and subsequent comments on classmates' responses.
You will be evaluated both on the quality of your responses (i.e., your understanding of readings, concepts, and practices as demonstrated by well-articulated, critical thinking) and quantity of your participation (i.e., the number of times you participate meaningfully in the assigned forums). Responses and comments should be properly proofread and edited, professional, and respectful.
Meaningful participation in online discussions is relevant to the content, adds value, and advances the discussion. Comments such as "I agree" and "ditto" are not considered value-adding participation. Therefore, when you agree or disagree with a classmate, the reading, or your mentor, state and support your agreement or disagreement.
Discussion Forum Evaluation Rubric
Nonprofit Leadership requires eight written assignments which include an organizational analysis, an organizational financial analysis, and a PowerPoint presentation. Some assignments consist of essay questions based on associated chapters in the textbook and your personal reflection. Familiarize yourself with the written assignment questions before you begin each written assignment. Conversely, be sure to complete all relevant readings before answering the questions.
When you have completed all of the assigned readings for a written assignment, prepare your answers to the written assignment questions. These questions require critical thinking. Take the time to determine what you need to include to present a thoughtful, complete response that conveys your understanding of the course materials.
Formulate responses in your own words (do not merely copy answers from your reading materials); however, support the points you make with information from your course materials and from outside sources. Cite and document all sources of information with an appropriate reference.
Prepare your written assignments using whatever word processing program you have on your computer. Include your name at the top of the paper, as well as the course name and code and the semester and year in which you are enrolled.
Before submitting your first assignment, check with your mentor to determine whether your word processing software is compatible with your mentor's software. If so, you can submit your work as you prepared it. If not, save your assignment as a rich-text (.rtf) file, using the Save As command of your software program. Rich text retains basic formatting and can be read by any other word processing program.
You are required to write a final research paper based on the nonprofit selected for your initial Organizational Analysis. The objective of this case study based paper is to synthesize and integrate what you have learned so that you can readily draw upon it in your professional life.

Thomas Edison State University is committed to maintaining academic quality, excellence, and honesty. The University expects all members of its community to share the commitment to academic integrity, an essential component of a quality academic experience.
Students at Thomas Edison State University are expected to exhibit the highest level of academic citizenship. In particular, students are expected to read and follow all policies, procedures, and program information guidelines contained in publications; pursue their learning goals with honesty and integrity; demonstrate that they are progressing satisfactorily and in a timely fashion by meeting course deadlines and following outlined procedures; observe a code of mutual respect in dealing with mentors, staff, and other students; behave in a manner consistent with the standards and codes of the profession in which they are practicing; keep official records updated regarding changes in name, address, telephone number, or e-mail address; and meet financial obligations in a timely manner. Students not practicing good academic citizenship may be subject to disciplinary action including suspension, dismissal, or financial holds on records.
All members of the University community are responsible for reviewing the Academic Code of Conduct Policy in the University Catalog and online at www.tesu.edu.
Thomas Edison State University expects all of its students to approach their education with academic integrity—the pursuit of scholarly activity free from fraud and deception. All mentors and administrative staff members at the University insist on strict standards of academic honesty in all courses. Academic dishonesty undermines this objective. Academic dishonesty can take the following forms:
Thomas Edison State University is committed to helping students understand the seriousness of plagiarism, which is defined as using the work and ideas of others without proper citation. The University takes a strong stance against plagiarism, and students found to be plagiarizing are subject to discipline under the academic code of conduct policy.
If you copy phrases, sentences, paragraphs, or whole documents word-for-word—or if you paraphrase by changing a word here and there—without identifying the author, or without identifying it as a direct quote, then you are plagiarizing. Please keep in mind that this type of identification applies to Internet sources as well as to print-based sources. Copying and pasting from the Internet, without using quotation marks and without acknowledging sources, constitutes plagiarism. (For information about how to cite Internet sources, see Online Student Handbook > Academic Standards > "Citing Sources.")
Accidentally copying the words and ideas of another writer does not excuse the charge of plagiarism. It is easy to jot down notes and ideas from many sources and then write your own paper without knowing which words are your own and which are someone else's. It is more difficult to keep track of each and every source. However, the conscientious writer who wishes to avoid plagiarizing never fails to keep careful track of sources.
Always be aware that if you write without acknowledging the sources of your ideas, you run the risk of being charged with plagiarism.
Clearly, plagiarism, no matter the degree of intent to deceive, defeats the purpose of education. If you plagiarize deliberately, you are not educating yourself, and you are wasting your time on courses meant to improve your skills. If you plagiarize through carelessness, you are deceiving yourself.

Acts of both intentional and unintentional plagiarism violate the Academic Code of Conduct.
If an incident of plagiarism is an isolated minor oversight or an obvious result of ignorance of proper citation requirements, the mentor may handle the matter as a learning exercise. Appropriate consequences may include the completion of tutorials, assignment rewrites, or any other reasonable learning tool in addition to a lower grade for the assignment or course. The mentor will notify the student and appropriate dean of the consequence by e-mail.
If the plagiarism appears intentional and/or is more than an isolated incident, the mentor will refer the matter to the appropriate dean, who will gather information about the violation(s) from the mentor and student, as necessary. The dean will review the matter and notify the student in writing of the specifics of the charge and the sanction to be imposed.

According to a forthcoming study in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, we're all terrible when it comes to understanding e-mail. In an article entitled "Egocentrism over email: Can we communicate as well as we think?", Nicholas Epley and Justin Kruger argue that the evidence shows that we're about as likely to misread the tone of an e-mail as we are to get it right. "Without the benefit of paralinguistic cues such as gesture, emphasis, and intonation, it can be difficult to convey emotion and tone over electronic mail (e-mail)," they report.
But the problems don't end there. Epley and Kruger argue that despite our demonstrable problems with the written word alone, we still believe as a whole that we're very effective communicators over e-mail. The reason? We're all egocentric... at least to the point that we have a very hard time separating our own perceptions of reality from reality itselfa problem that leads us to underappreciate the perspectives of others. Well, I never!
I was tipped to the study's existence (PDF) from this rather short Wired piece, which approached the study as one with insight as to how flame wars get started. However, the article itself sends a far more nuanced message, and one which I think speaks more broadly to the condition of the written word, per se.
If comprehending human communication consisted merely of translating sentences and syntax into thoughts and ideas, there would be no room for misunderstanding. But it does not, and so there is. People convey meaning not only with what they say, but also with how they say it. Gesture, voice, expression, context—all are important paralinguistic cues that can disambiguate ambiguous messages (Archer & Akert, 1977; Argyle, 1970; DePaulo & Friedman, 1998).
In five separate studies, participants consistently overestimated their ability to communicate effectively over e-mail. The studies paid attention to how the participants attempted to communicate humor, sarcasm, and other emotions, and even tested experimenter-created expressions as well as participant-created expressions. The study found that the people tend to look to their own perspectives when attempting to understanding messages from others. The problem is made worse when the other parties to the communication are coming from rather a different perspective. The wider the gap, the greater the chance for miscommunication.
In some sense, this may seem like, well, common sense. But Epley and Kruger suggest that there is something special about text-based communication in our age worth looking at, if not because of its ubiquity, then because of the increasing likelihood of communicative problems. In assessing their research, the authors write that "we suspect the synchronous and rapid nature of these mediums may actually increase the rift between senders and receivers."
As e-mail become more and more ubiquitous, in whatever forms it may take in the future, we may see more communicative problems as a result. But it's not just e-mail. Forum posts, blogs, even color-commentary on a site like Ars Technica... they all trade in the written word, and suffer from the challenges of communicating across a largely faceless, gesture-less rift.
Indeed, as the study notes, it was once thought that anonymity and the wild, wacky nature of the 'net is what gave birth to "flame wars," but alas this is not so. While flame wars are certainly common these days, they're nothing new, and certainly not unique to the digital realm. No, it's something about the human passion for communication mixed in with the problems that it entails, written or otherwise. Epley and Kruger suggest that this may all boil down to egocentrism, and they may be right: after all, rarely is someone wrong on the Internet. They're just misunderstood. Or taken out of context. Or...

By Esther Townsend
In the last two months the Socialist Party has come under increased pressure about its relationship with RMT Assistant General Secretary Steve Hedley. Hedley has been accused by his former partner Caroline Leneghan of violent abuse, and in a separate incident is documented making extremely sexist remarks towards a young woman activist.
Although the Socialist Party has issued no further statements since its earlier defences of Hedley in March and April, it seems as if its members and organisers have been briefed on what to say in response to criticism. A number of themes keep emerging in SP members' defence of their organisation's record. We have produced this short statement to reply to them.
For instance: our comrades report that, in debates at the National Campaign Against Fees and Cuts conference in November, Socialist Students national organiser Claire Laker-Mansfield made all the arguments which we respond to here. She made similar arguments at a Socialist Students meeting on women's liberation at Sheffield University the following week. There are many other examples we could cite, and no doubt many more we do not know about.
We urge everyone to read the our briefing published in October, which discusses the cases in some detail, as well as linking to Caroline Leneghan's blog and to the SP's public statements. We think it stands up well. You can also read Cathy Nugent's comments on the case, published on the Workers' Liberty website in July, here.
Argument 1: Those accused should be innocent until proven guilty
The briefing linked to above says quite categorically: "We are NOT claiming to know for sure whether Steve Hedley is guilty. We accept that in legal or disciplinary terms he should be regarded as innocent until proved guilty (and our concern here is not to try to reopen the RMT investigation)."
That is not an issue here, but a straw man to distract attention from the real issues, which are:
a) Caroline Leneghan's claims (see here – warning for descriptions of violence and images of injuries);
b) The SP's handling of the case, including its implied attitude to Caroline Leneghan;
c) Indisputable (and undisputed), documented evidence in the separate case where Hedley behaved towards a young woman activist in a very sexist way – about which the SP has never said a word.
Argument 2: Caroline Leneghan was not a Socialist Party member
Some SP members have argued that since Caroline Leneghan was never an SP member, there is no comparison with the SWP's Martin Smith case. It is hard to see how this makes sense. Caroline's non-membership in the SP is surely irrelevant. The case is different from the Martin Smith one, but not necessarily less serious. Even if Caroline had never had any connection to the left or labour movement (in fact she is a socialist and was an RMT activist while she worked on the railways) that would not change the seriousness of her accusations. (In any case, even if for some reason you think this case is less serious than the Martin Smith one, why is that the standard of measure? How does the "fact" of not behaving as badly as the SWP exonerate the SP?)
Argument 3: Steve Hedley was exonerated by the police and by the RMT investigation
This is not true, as our briefing linked to above explains. So does this statement by Caroline Leneghan's RMT representative, Andy Littlechild.
Argument 4: Steve Hedley is no longer a member of the SP
When the Caroline Leneghan case first became public, Steve Hedley resigned from the SP. As our briefing explains, this changed nothing politically, since the SP continued to promote him as a good socialist they would work closely with. At the SP's Socialism 2013 event on 2-3 November, Hedley was present, welcomed as a friend of the organisation. We have been told – though we do not have confirmation – that he was a speaker at the event.
Hedley's resignation does not alter the SP's ability to take a critical stance towards him: instead they have continued to collaborate closely with and promote him, trying to use the fact that he is no longer actually an SP member as a (not very effective) shield.
Argument 5: Janine Booth's vote on the RMT exec
Here the SP passes from evasion to outright lying, by claiming that Workers' Liberty and Women's Fightback supporter Janine Booth voted on the RMT Council of Executives for the report proposing the dropping of the investigation into Caroline's allegations against Hedley. (Sometimes this is spun as a report "exonerating" Hedley, which – we repeat – is not right.) This claim is simply untrue. In the only vote on the RMT executive on the report, Janine voted with the minority who wanted to reject it by referring it back.
Argument 6: All the SP did was report the facts
SP members have also claimed that all their organisation did was report the facts of the case. As our briefing explains in detail, this is not true. The SP statements distorted some facts, omitted others and presented things in such a way as to promote Hedley's version of events and his political narrative.
Argument 7: The SP has a good record on domestic violence
Whatever the SP's previous record on domestic violence, its record could not be good – because of this. Wherever the SP leadership stands on domestic violence in general and in the abstract, in this case that issue came below its desire to stay in with a "left-wing" trade union official. Of course, that calls into question how serious their views on the subject are.
The facts remain
1. That the Steve Hedley/Caroline Leneghan case is, while different in various respects, comparably serious to the SWP's Martin Smith cases.
2. That, like the SWP, the Socialist Party has put its self-perceived organisational interests above socialist political principle.
3. That the separate, documented incident of sexism is, by itself, a condemnation of Hedley. The fact that the SP has never commented on it is disgraceful.
4. That there has been far less upheaval in the SP about any of this than there has been in the SWP about the Martin Smith cases.
We have no doubt that the Socialist Party will accuse us of raising these issues, again, for sectarian or factional reasons. All we can say is that we think the issues are extremely serious, and we do not care if raising them leads to such accusations.
We need major changes in the left to challenge the culture of sexism and lack of respect for women's rights that exists in various forms – as part of a wider transformation of the movement's culture, to end the situation where socialists routinely put apparatus above ideas and ideals. The behaviour of the Socialist Party's leadership in this case suggests it is part of the problem, not the solution. What will Socialist Party members do?
