Eggs over easy with Soy sauce is a meal that takes five minutes to put on the table, and it's not ramen. It's the best thing ever when you're hungry but don't feel like cooking. Just fry a couple of eggs and some scallions, put it over some heated leftover rice, and drizzle with soy sauce. You won't be disappointed. Here's the recipe to serve 1. Multiply as needed:
- 2 eggs
- 1 tablespoon oil
- Cooked white rice
- 2 scallions, cut into 2 inch lengths
- Soy sauce, to taste
- Pinch sugar
- 1 teaspoon shaoxing wine (optional)
Fry the eggs over easy or sunny-side-up in the oil, making sure to keep the yolk runny. Place over a bed of cooked rice. Then add the scallions to the pan and fry just until wilted. Stir in the soy sauce, a pinch of sugar, and the shaoxing wine, if using.
Pour the scallions over the egg. Drizzle with more soy.
And that's it! This dinner has saved me on many an evening in college.

Sterling Review
For budget calculations that are more back-of-envelope than banking
In these cash-strapped times, being able to keep a close eye on your finances is more vital than ever before. Sterling makes life infinitely easy and it is well placed to help anyone who needs to budget, whether you're self-employed, a student or just someone who needs to keep a close eye on the pennies.
With a simple tap of the + icon, you are ready to start creating your first budget. You are able to devise multiple budgets to suit your various needs, be it work or at home. The app then allows for budget pages that reflect the week, month or year. By stating when you want the month to start, you can even tailor it to follow financial months. At that point, you are ready to start a transaction.
This is as simple as including the name of transaction and the amount and deciding if you want it to repeat or not. These rough calculations that allow you to track spending and savings can then be played around with to see what would happen if certain things changed.
The beauty is that it doesn't affect your budgeting but offers a 'what if' scenario. This means you can make all manner of amendments and play around while keeping the underlying data and experimenting. It's a neat touch.
The interface takes a little getting used to but you soon find it's simple and effective at keeping track of budgets.

A federal judge in Baltimore threw out four of Novell's six antitrust claims against Microsoft but ruled the case could proceed.
A federal judge in Baltimore threw out four of Novell's six antitrust claims against Microsoft but ruled the case could proceed.
Novell alleges Microsoft used its monopoly power to limit sales of Novell's office-productivity applications, including WordPerfect, a word-processing program, and Quattro Pro, a spreadsheet program.
Four claims were dismissed because Novell waited too long to file them, U.S. District Judge J. Frederick Motz said in his ruling Friday. The case was filed in November in Utah and transferred last month to the federal court in Maryland.
Novell, which sold WordPerfect and Quattro Pro to Corel in 1996, had previously reached a $536 million settlement with Microsoft on other antitrust claims.
3 security bulletins issued for flaws
Microsoft released three security bulletins yesterday to fix flaws that could let an attacker take complete control of a computer system.
The "critical" security flaws affect Microsoft's Windows operating system.
The software maker released other patches to address less-serious problems with Windows, the Exchange server system, services for the Unix operating system, Microsoft's Interactive Training software for Windows, and ISA server, a network firewall program. Some of the flaws affect computers with operating systems dating to Windows 98.

Lattice Semiconductor
2 top executives placed on paid leave
Lattice Semiconductor, the Hillsboro, Ore., company that makes programmable semiconductors, said it has placed Chief Executive Officer Cyrus Tsui and Vice President of Finance Rodney Sloss on paid leave while an audit committee examines executive compensation and other issues.
Stephen Skaggs, Lattice's chief financial officer from 1996 to 2003, was named acting CEO, the company said yesterday. The audit committee is examining issues brought to its attention by a litigation committee examining two lawsuits brought by shareholders.

Best Buy
Sales of high-end TVs boost quarterly profit
First-quarter profit at Best Buy leaped 85 percent, far ahead of analyst expectations, and the nation's largest consumer-electronics retailer raised its guidance for the entire year.
Best Buy's shares rose $8.68 to close at $67.80 yesterday, surpassing the previous 52-week high of $62.20.
The company said yesterday that sales of high-end televisions rose at double-digit percentage rates, and sales of digital music players more than doubled from the same quarter last year. Television prices dropped, but it made up for the decline by selling more of them. The company also said it needed fewer promotions to sell its gadgets.
SEC investigating scandal, firm reports
Office-supplies retailer OfficeMax said yesterday the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has issued a formal order of investigation related to the company's internal probe of its accounting for vendor income.
The company launched its own investigation in December 2004, when it received claims by a retail vendor that certain employees acted inappropriately in requesting promotional payments and falsifying supporting documents.
Six employees were fired in connection with the probe, completed in March 2005, and OfficeMax reported it had overstated cumulative net operating income in the first three quarters of 2004 by $4.3 million.
OfficeMax said it intends to cooperate fully with the SEC.
SEC spokesman John Nester declined to comment on the OfficeMax statement, saying it's the commission's policy not to confirm the existence or nonexistence of investigations.
Deadlock continues in Scrushy fraud trial
Jurors in the fraud trial of HealthSouth founder and fired CEO Richard Scrushy failed to break through a deadlock during a 14th day of deliberations yesterday.
It was the panel's fourth day of talks since reporting it could not make a unanimous decision on any of the 36 counts, a message that prompted U.S. District Judge Karon Bowdre to give jurors special legal instructions and order them back to work.
Deliberations resume today.
Scrushy, 52, is the first chief executive charged under the Sarbanes-Oxley corporate reporting law. He also is accused of conspiracy, false reporting, fraud and money laundering.
Scrushy blames a $2.7 billion earnings overstatement on underlings, including 15 former HealthSouth executives who pleaded guilty.
Wyndham International
Hotel chain OKs sale to Blackstone
Hotel operator Wyndham International, which has been selling its stake in other brands to focus on its upscale chain, said yesterday that it has agreed to sell to an affiliate of The Blackstone Group for about $1.44 billion plus the assumption of debt.
Blackstone, a private investment firm, will pay $1.15 per share in cash for each share of Wyndham's common stock.
About 85 percent of the proceeds would go to holders of preferred shares, mostly a handful of investors who pumped $1 billion into the company six years ago. Wyndham recently announced a plan to convert those preferred shares into common stock.
Blackstone would also assume $1.8 billion in debt, according to Wyndham spokeswoman Darcie Brossart.

Time to track the response to climate change for better human health
Climate Change One year after the historic Paris climate change agreement, the global health community has seen progress and challenges.
Last month saw the United Kingdom, Australia, Guatemala, Pakistan and Tanzania add themselves to the list of 114 countries who have ratified the 'Paris Agreement'. We have also seen a renewed commitment to renewable energy (47 countries pledged to be 100% renewable energy by 2020), and large strides forward have been made in scaling up adaptation finance. This has happened alongside the rise of populism in the United States and Europe.
In such an unstable political environment, we cannot afford to forget the human face of climate change – the urgent and potentially catastrophic effects that a changing global environment is having on public health.
The World Health Organization estimated that in 2012, 23% of all deaths were linked to preventable, environmental risk factors.
Climate change threatens to act as a threat multiplier for many of these risks. Whether we are talking about rising temperatures and extremes of weather such as flooding, droughts, and heatwaves and their devastating health consequences. These risks are often exacerbated by other environmental stressors, undermining food and water security, creating the conditions for a spread in infectious diseases, and displacing populations.
One thing we know for certain is that countries and people who have contributed the least to the problem, will be worst affected.
To help respond to this burden, the world now has the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change's Paris Agreement, and the Sustainable Development Goals – both providing opportunities to tackle climate change and improve human health.
Crucially, as highlighted repeatedly in the medical journal The Lancet, interventions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions provide immense benefits for human wellbeing. Many of these interventions result in cleaner air, healthier diets, and communities that promote social inclusion and physical activity. When we achieve these health benefits, the attendant reductions in costs to the healthcare system often make the initial intervention cost-effective.
In a world with such political instability, there are plentiful examples of countries and cities 'getting on with it'.
Launched last month, the Lancet Countdown on Health and Climate Change will track these trends and examples on an annual basis, demonstrating the benefits to health that an accelerated response to climate change holds.
Ultimately, healthcare professionals, governments and countries need to shift from an understanding of climate change solely as a threat, to embracing the response to climate change as an opportunity to safeguard and maximize human health and wellbeing.
This will also continue regardless of the world political situation. As the former UNFCCC Executive Secretary Christiana Figueres noted at the launch of the Lancet Countdown – the world is rapidly moving towards a decarbonized economy, and the direction of travel is set.

Encourage positive communication within your home to improve family relationships. HealthyChildren.org points out that the code of conduct your kids learn within the family will support them throughout their lives. That's not to say everyone must agree with all the other family members at all times. Help your family to communicate more positively so they find ways to resolve conflicts while still maintaining close bonds. Remember -- your kids learn from your example, so pay special attention to your own communication skills.
Often you need to give factual information to family members to ensure everyone gets to appointments on time. Arranging mealtimes and organizing transport to school or play dates needs clarity and accurate detail. Make sure you tell each member of the family individually what he or she needs to know, using age-appropriate language and writing down relevant dates and times for older kids. Use a family calendar, notes on the refrigerator or on kitchen notice boards to avoid confusion. Encourage your kids to add their own information. Keep a daily routine of checking for notes from school.
Pay attention to the feelings of family members. Help them to communicate their emotions honestly and calmly by reflecting their comments back. Statements like "I can see you feel angry with your brother because he broke your doll" acknowledge your child's emotions and help her to identify and deal with them. When you then ask, "What do you think he should do to make you feel good again?" you give her an opportunity to resolve the dispute positively.
Make sure your facial expression, body language and tone of voice match the content of your communication. People take more account of the way you speak than of your words, especially when dealing with emotional topics. Your family will pick up on any anger or frustration you feel, so make sure you tell them when it's not their fault you feel that way. Use positive non-verbal communication, including hugs and kisses, to offer comfort and support family bonds.
Foster clarity and honesty in your own communication style to set an example to your family. Say "no" firmly when you disapprove of something they say or do. Avoid vague generalizations that tend to infuriate your teens, like remarking that kids today are always rude. Instead, state specifically what you want -- for example, that you expect your kids to empty the dishwasher before you return from work. People who feel happy with their relationships tend to balance every negative interaction with five positive ones, so remember to spend five times as much time praising each family member as you do giving negative feedback, advises Mary Gosche, human development specialist for the University of Missouri Extension.
Become a good listener to encourage your family to communicate better. Be prepared to stop what you are doing and make eye contact, so your child knows he has your full attention. Check you understand by asking questions. For example, say, "So you thought your teacher was unfair to you? What did she do that made you think that way?" Thoughtful, non-judgmental questioning helps your child analyze and express his exact meaning.

Mr. and Mrs. L., v. Plainville Bd. of Educ.
Federal District Court
363 F.Supp.2d 222 (D. Conn. 2005)
March 28, 2005
On March 28, 2005 the federal district court of Connecticut handed down a ruling in favor of the Plainville Board of Education (the "Board"), rejecting a claim asserted by parents of R.L., a 12-year-old girl with Sanfillipo syndrome (a severe degenerative disease that results in delayed development, hyperactivity, sleep disorders, hearing impairment, and degenerative loss of speech). The parents claimed that the Individualized Education Program ("IEP") developed for their daughter violated the Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act of 2004 ("IDEA") on several grounds. The proposed IEP developed at one of the Planning and Placement Team ("PPT") meetings was not satisfactory to R.L.'s resulting in an equally unsatisfactory administrative appeal. R.L.'s parents appealed the outcome of that hearing to the federal court.
The court found no violation of IDEA. The parents contended that the administrative hearing officer inappropriately focused her review on a modified version of the IEP, rather than the plan that was proposed to them, and on which they based their complaint. The court agreed with the Board that the modifications were only technical, not substantive. Because these revisions were minor and could be reasonably anticipated as follow up to the agreed upon plan, they did not constitute the creation of a new IEP that would have required approval by the PPT. The court rejected the parents' claim because the type of modifications made did not result in the loss of an education opportunity for R.L., nor did they seriously impair the parents' ability to participate in the formulation of the IEP.
In addition, the parents urged that the hearing officer improperly applied the procedural requirements of IDEA when she found that the child had been appropriately "mainstreamed" and failed to consider evidence that supplementary aids and services could increase the extent to which R.L. would be able to be in a mainstream class setting. The court agreed with the Board that R.L.'s IEP met the standard set forth in IDEA that the child be provided the maximum extent of mainstream time possible. The Board's position was that R.L. also needed individual time to focus on skill acquisition, including a communication system, in order to better prepare her for more time spent in the mainstream educational environment. The court found that the administrative hearing officer appropriately considered whether, and to what extent, supplementary aids and services could increase the time the child spends in a mainstream educational setting, contrary to the parents' assertion. The court also pointed to the fact that the IEP did include audiological services and an assistive technology plan as support for its decision, and did not find the parents' argument that with additional aids and services, R.L. might be able to spend more time in a mainstream setting to be persuasive.
R.L.'s parents also asserted that the Board should be required to pay for an independent educational evaluation that they obtained to supplement and potentially enhance R.L.'s IEP. The court narrowly defined the legal standard in finding that since the parents had the independent evaluation done to provide them with additional input on their child's educational plan, not because they disagreed with the Program for Evaluation of Development and Learning ("PEDAL evaluation") that had been conducted at the Connecticut Children's Medical Center at the request of the school, they were not entitled to have the Board pay for that independent evaluation.
Further, the parents contended that R.L's early dismissal from school one day a week violated her rights under state and federal law because non-disabled children were not subject to the same dismissal schedule and state regulations require that the minimum school day and year for children requiring special education be the same as for children in the regular education program. The court found that since the early release was designed to allow teachers time to review individual programs for the students and the effectiveness of the special education program in general, it was not a violation of IDEA. The court did not find a violation of state law because even with the early dismissal, R.L.'s total educational time exceeded the state minimum requirements, i.e. at least 900 hours of instruction time and at least 180 days per school year.
The final part of R.L.'s parents' claim involved their request for an independent outside expert to coordinate the special education services for R.L. The court found that the Board had not violated IDEA in denying the parents' request. Because the court agreed with the Board's position that there is no requirement that the Board hire consultants selected by the parents, rather the expert provided by the school adequately fulfilled the same role that the outside consultant would play, there was therefore no need for an additional consultant. The court found that the Board complied with IDEA's requirement that the program provided to the child be "reasonably calculated" to ensure appropriate education benefits. The court also acknowledged the Board's argument that there was a genuine concern about the adverse effects of having too many consultants involved as legitimate.
This court reinforced the position expressed in Tucker v. Bay Shore Union Free Sch Dist., 873 F.2d 563, at 567 (2d Cir. 1989), that IDEA's requirement that disabled children receive a free and adequate public education does not mean that schools must provide "everything that might be thought desirable by loving parents."

Resource Meteorites
Resource Meteorites were introduced in Empyrion: Galactic Survival to maintain the supply of resources in multiplayer servers (they fall in Single Player game too). Resource Meteorites of a resource start to fall on planets when the total amount of that resource in the Resource Deposits of that planet drop below 10%. Players get an alert on their HUD (top right corner) about an impending meteorite fall. Players can see the meteorite falling with its trail blaze if he/she is in the vicinity. Resource meteorites contain only one resource and their size starts to reduce as the player mines them.They completely disappear when all resource from the meteorite have been mined.
Meteorite labels can be seen in the HUD which shows only the name of the resource and distance from the player, not the size or amount left like Resource Deposits. The position of the meteorites shown in the HUD map but not in the planet map.

Remember the dead, but don't forget the brave woman with the smart phone
By the time Dallas police blew up 25-year-old Micha Xavier Johnson with a robot that packed a remote-controlled bomb on Friday morning, five police officers were dead and seven more were wounded. Two civilians were injured as well.
The black sniper's stated intention was to take as many white cops with him as he could. Yet even in death, he had one more destructive round in the chamber.
At least for a time, Johnson was able to silence Diamond Reynolds, an African-American woman of extraordinary poise and courage who, from the side of her dying boyfriend, had just used her smart phone to open a live, real-time window on black America's relationship with law enforcement.
"Please, officer, don't tell me that you just did this to him. You shot four bullets into him, sir. He was just getting his license and registration, sir," the Minnesota woman said while we watched Philando Castile breathe his last. Her 4-year-old daughter was in the back seat.
We all needed to be in that car, too, however painful we found the experience. But in a selfish and pointless search for vengeance, Johnson forced us to look elsewhere.
The week's cruelty had grown day by day. On Wednesday, we woke to a YouTube video of a white police officer in Baton Rouge, La., pressing his service pistol to the chest of a red-shirted Alton Sterling. You felt the 'pops' that killed him.
That night, Michael Thurmond hosted a DeKalb County meeting that was conceived as a local attempt at peace-making between the followers of Hillary Clinton and those of Bernie Sanders. Instead, the Baton Rouge shooting took over the conversation.
Thurmond still faces a Republican opponent, but won the Democratic primary in May and is the heavy favorite to become CEO of DeKalb County in November. So he speaks well of police. He understands the challenge of the "nihilism" – his words, not mine – posed by neighborhoods filled with unemployed black youth. Yet even he wasn't prepared on Wednesday night.
"I was taken aback by the pain that was in the room. There was a palpable sense of outrage," he said.
I was not in the audience. So on Thursday, I checked in with George Chidi, who had been there. Chidi, an African-American, is one of eight DeKalb County Commission candidates running in a special election for Stan Watson's vacated seat.
But the conversation had already changed again. An officer in Falcon Heights, Minn., had pulled a car over for a broken tail light. Moments later, Diamond Reynolds — we didn't know her name at the time – activated her Facebook Live app.
The officer told her to keep her hands where he could see them. "I will, sir, no worries. I will,"
And in one of those hands, she kept her phone, still recording.
Chidi was astounded by the clear-headed woman.
For the unplugged, an explanation is required. We all know that phones now record digital video. But phones can be confiscated. Video can be erased. The livestream app permitted Reynolds to immediately broadcast her video to Facebook friends. It gave that video an immediate and permanent storage home beyond the reach of law enforcement.
The act was an extremely political one.
"Her boyfriend was dying, and the woman in the car had the presence of mind to pull out a phone and livestream," Chidi said. "Under other circumstances, that would not be normal. But it's normal now.
"The black community realizes they have a role to play in solving the problem. That there's a problem, it is real and it has to be solved. This was an act of democracy," the candidate said. "It was a profound act of democracy to put aside your own fear, your own heartbreak, to hold a camera in your hand. Because capturing that, to add to the body of evidence, was more important than your own grief. That is where we are."
And that is the conversation that Micah Johnson changed with a rifle only a few hours later. We would wake up Friday morning to watch David Brown, African-American chief of the Dallas police force mourn his fallen comrades — and protest that his officers were acting as guardians, not predators.
But perhaps Reynolds held the stage long enough to put enough of us in that car with her. Gov. Mark Dayton of Minnesota, a Democrat, was prompted to an immediate confession. "Would this have happened if the driver were white, if the passengers were white?" he asked. "I don't think it would have."
But it was the Republican reaction that bore watching.
Before Dallas, on his Facebook page, state Rep. Buzz Brockway of Lawrenceville acknowledged that many see "that our justice system treats African-Americans badly, even sometimes criminally."
Before Dallas, Patrick Milsaps, an Albany, Ga., entertainment attorney who headed up Newt Gingrich's 2012 campaign for president, sent this out via Twitter: "I'm a white. I support law enforcement. But folks, we witnessed two executions in the past 48 hours on social media. #IntellectualHonesty"
After Dallas, a statement of reaction from the Republican National Committee acknowledged that the events in Texas, Louisiana and Minnesota were a situation to be addressed as a whole. "We must seek understanding with one another, and work as one nation to prevail over injustice in all its forms," said Reince Priebus, RNC chairman.
In his Friday statements, even Republican presidential presumptive Donald Trump was restrained, acknowledging the "senseless, tragic deaths" in Baton Rouge and Falcon Heights as he mourned the dead officers in Dallas.
Newt Gingrich, the former House speaker and Georgia congressman, also offered evidence of a political reaction that might veer away from the familiar path.
"It took me a long time, and a number of people talking to me through the years to get a sense of this. If you are a normal white American, the truth is you don't understand being black in America and you instinctively under-estimate the level of discrimination and the level of additional risk," he said.
Gingrich made his remarks on Facebook Live, the same app that Diamond Reynolds used in her bloodied car.
So after you mourn the dead in Texas, Louisiana and Minnesota, pass over the shooter in Dallas and give a thought to her. Everything that Micha Johnson wasn't — brave, thoughtful and moral — Diamond Reynolds was. And is.

A US brewery has constructed a Christmas tree out of hundreds of beer kegs. All that is missing is the beer.
The Genesee Brewing Co built the 23ft (7m) Christmas tree out of 300 stainless steel kegs outsides its Brew House in downtown Rochester, western New York.
The keg tree is trimmed with 600ft (183m) of green lights and topped by a rotating Genesee sign.
More than 20 of Genesee's elves – also known as employees – got to work designing and building the keg tree.
Alas, beer lovers, the kegs are empty. But the company says when the tree is dismantled the kegs will return to the production line and be refilled.
The official public lighting ceremony is set for December 18.

Breast cancer: key data sources
Scottish Cancer Registry - incidence data
The Scottish Cancer Registry has been collecting population-based information on cancer since 1958. Details available for each case include personal, demographic and diagnosis information (e.g. site, histology, behaviour, histological confirmation, date and hospital of diagnosis). For further information on the Scottish Cancer Registry see the Overview of key data sources section.
National Records of Scotland (NRS) - mortality data
NRS (formerly General Register Office for Scotland) is responsible for the registration of deaths in Scotland and all deaths must be recorded in the deaths register. The register records, amongst other things, the cause, time, date and place of death. For further information on the mortality data collected by NRS see the Overview of key data sources section.
International datasets
The GLOBOCAN database includes estimates of the incidence of, and mortality from major cancers worldwide. The degree of detail and quality of data vary considerably across countries, and some of the information is based on samples rather than national populations. The GLOBOCAN database presents UK, not Scotland-level information, so comparative information for Scotland should be obtained from the ISD breast cancer statistics section.
Comparisons of cancer survival across Europe are available from the EUROCARE website along with background papers discussing the validity and comparability of these estimates.
Another source of international data on breast cancer incidence and mortality is the Scotland and European Health for All (HfA) Database.
Breast cancer is coded according to the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD):
- ICD version 9 code: 174 (from 1979-1996 for incidence, and 1979-1999 for mortality)
- ICD version 10 code: C50 (from 1997 onwards for incidence, and from 2000 for mortality).

Day Trips from Paris

Giverny is easy to get to by train from St Lazare to Vernon, and then either a bus or a pleasant country walk from there (or you could walk back to the station)- if you like gardens and flower-filled villages.
Chartres, Rouen and Amiens are all about the buildings.

You are an hour away from the Loire Valley and the chateaux.

PARISFLANEUR (like that handle) I suggest reading PARIS TO THE PAST: Traveling Through French History by Train by Ina Caro.
Great read about day trips from Paris to a myriad of destinations. Caro adds suggestions for special lunches along the way.

Consider Moret-sur-Loing, a charming village much loved by the impressionists and easily reached by train.

By all means, do not miss Giverny in May. The gardens are at their best. Easy to reach by train and bus as noted above. If you haven't been to Chartres, it is a wonderful day trip. The train trip is easy and it is a short walk from the station to the cathedral. Try to arrange a tour by Malcolm Miller while there. There are a number of pleasant small restaurants in the town for lunch.

Thanks Mimar for the vote of approval. I'll post my list again because sometimes either people don't click on links or don't notice them amidst all the responses:
If you want to go to anyplace that requires a reservation for train tickets (all TGV trains and many Intercités trains) you'll need to buy them 3 months in advance to get the cheapest ticket prices.
The cheapest train tickets are going to be the local trains near Paris that have fixed prices so you don't need to buy tickets in advance and you can also wait for the best weather day to do a day trip.
Here is a brief list that summarizes many of the most popular day trips from Paris (within an hour and a half by train). With the exception of Reims, Troyes and Rouen I haven't included places that require advance train ticket purchase to get the cheapest train ticket prices. The rest of the destinations are all local trains with fixed prices. There are certainly many other day trips you could also do but this list covers most of the biggies:

IMPORTANT NOTE: When using the http://en.voyages-sncf.com/en/ website here are a few tips. When entering Paris as your arrival or departure point you will notice a drop down menu appears when you start to type the word ''paris''. Select ''Paris (all stations – FR)'' and this will automatically bring up the correct train station in Paris for your journey. Be sure to uncheck the box marked ''Direct Trains'' to see all options.
If you are redirected to the RailEurope then try again and select ''Antarctic'' as your ticket collection country to avoid being redirected to the RailEurope website. The RailEurope website usually doesn't show all the trains and shows higher ticket prices. Be sure to also look at other ticket purchase options. If you are having troubles with the SNCF website you can try using a new ticket selling website called www.capitainetrain.com. You can also use the German rail site www.bahn.de for schedules but it will not give train ticket prices.
These are the most popular day trips and all are worthwhile but there are many other less popular and equally worthy day trips. I could easily list a couple dozen more but only if what's on this list doesn't interest you. A good guide book for the Île-de-France region should give you more ideas.
You'll need to take a train from Paris to do these day trips. For info on trains in Paris and the nearby suburbs (métro and RER trains and those TER trains that operate within zone 5) use the website www.ratp.fr. Use the interactive map on this website to plan your trip: http://www.ratp.fr/plan-interactif/carteidf.php?lang=uk. Parts of this website are in French so you can use an English language companion site www.vianavigo.com. You can also use www.transilien.com for métro and RER trains and those TER trains that are part of the Transilien network. Some TER trains on the Transilien network go beyond zone zone 5. It's a personal choice as to whether you prefer using the RATP or Transilien website.
A great website to learn about the Paris métro/bus/RER network is www.parisbytrain.com.
For trains that go further beyond the Île-de-France and outside of the Transilien network use the website http://en.voyages-sncf.com/en/ A great website to learn about trains in France (and Europe) is www.seat61.com if you have any train questions/problems.
Paris and many of the places nearby in Île-de-France are divided into zones, numbered 1 through 5. Paris is in zone 1 and areas outside Paris are in zones 2 through 5. Some of the destinations I mentioned are in zone 5 (Provins, Fontainebleau, Moret-sur-Loing, Vaux-le-Vicomte, Crécy-la-Chapelle, Barbizon). For these journeys it will be more cost effective to buy a one day Mobilis pass for 16.10€ for zones 1 through 5. This will be cheaper than the point to point tickets round trip. Plus, this pass is good for unlimited travel on all public trains and buses for one day in zones 1-5. Buy it first thing in the morning before your first métro ride and it gets you to your train station, your round trip tickets, any buses you need to use at your destination and any traveling you'll do in Paris when you return. Before you use the ticket make sure to write your name and the date on the ticket. You can buy these passes from the ticket machines in métro/RER stations. The machines have an English language option. If so, look for the one day Mobilis pass option. When you get to the screen that lists your zones to choose from press zone 1 and then press zone 5. You can also buy them at any ticket counter. They are good for 60 days so you can buy it in advance if you want to be prepared. It's not valid until you write your name and date on it and validate the ticket on your first métro/RER trip or at the train station. If you buy the ticket at a main line train station before boarding a train be sure to stick it in the machine that validates tickets and it will punch your ticket.

Modularity The initial JSR 316 for Java EE 6 came out this week and it has some references to relying on the Java 277 module system (to the exclusion of others such as JSR 291). Peter Kriens had probably the best comments on this that I've seen.
Language Proposals The language change discussions have slowed down quite a bit but there a few interesting links out there this week. Michael Nischt presented an idea for Inline-Methods and Closure-Blocks to add control abstraction without closures. Shai made a case against the property keyword. And Neal Gafter posted an interesting proposal on constructor type inference, suggesting that Java should provide type inference on the right-hand side of generic constructor assignment, as well as other locations. Neal's ideas are interesting as always and attract a highly insightful stream of comments, so check it out.Read the complete post: http://tech.puredanger.com/2007/07/08/java7-roundup-21/

Interview with Foundation Programme alumna Gabriela Kurcharska
When did you realise you wanted to be a jewellery designer?
I never knew I wanted to be a jewellery designer. It was just when my previous school gave me the opportunity to study jewellery for GCSE that my interest in the area was sparked.
Where do you find inspiration?
From different places such as the internet, magazines, photos. When I travel I take a little booklet with me and if I see something of interest I sketch. It can be anything, like a window, a building, a bird, an animal. It might not be used immediately, but I return to it after a few days or weeks and it gives me more ideas and inspiration.
Is there a module that you particularly enjoyed while you were studying here at the Goldsmiths' Centre?
When I first came here, I did not realise there would be so many aspects to this Foundation course. I did not know that I would be doing enamelling, engraving and silversmithing for example. I really enjoyed the engraving and silversmithing, and also design. I tried to be really interested in design, but because I knew they did not have any design apprentices before, I thought I should be interested in something else. I really did enjoy every single bit of it. Finally, I turned out to get an apprenticeship in design so it's really nice.
Are there any skills that you've learnt that helped you secure an apprenticeship?
Yes, I think - even though I did not particularly like mounting – that helped me because now when I am designing something I think of how to make it and if it's possible to design it. Like for example if I go and do architecture at university, I would not be able to build it first and then go to learn the theory. I think it's good that I first learnt how to make the jewellery and then design it, I think it really did help me.
Can you share a memory from the year you spent here at the Goldsmiths' Centre?
I think the best memory was when I found that I got a gold award from the Goldsmiths' Craft and Design Council for my piece of work, which I did not expect, but that was a really good achievement.
Gabriela Kurcharska, Foundation Programme alumni © The Goldsmiths' Centre, 2016
What's the most important aspect of your job?
I have only been doing it for 6 months, but I think keeping time and to deadlines. This is because sometimes we get a brief to get something done within one week, and sometimes customers can be really fussy about what they want and for a designer it is kind of difficult to meet the customers' needs properly so that they are happy at the end of the day.
Design depends a lot on creativity and inspiration. Is there anything in particular that you do to make sure that you meet the deadline?
I do a lot of research because I work for a company where we do stuff for different countries as well and it needs to be right. For example you can't get the colours of the flag of the country wrong. So I do a lot of research first before I get on to designing something.
How do you feel that you are the first ever design apprentice? Was it easy to find an apprenticeship?
It was really hard at the beginning. I did not really know what to do, because as I said before, they did not have any design apprenticeships. So I thought after the Foundation Programme that I could go to university and study interior design or architecture and be able to still draw and design. They found me a place and it was really exciting and it's really crazy that I am actually the first one. I think I have to make a good start for other people to become jewellery designers because it's a really nice and interesting job to do in the future.
Did the Centre help you find an apprenticeship or guide you?
Yes, it was the Centre that helped me to get the apprenticeship. It was a dream come true for me. I mean, I did have work experience before doing silversmithing, but I did not feel that this is it. I also think that the award I won helped a little bit.

Philippines: Muslims and Christians mourn slain priest
Hundreds of Muslims and Christians thronged to the Holy Rosary Church in the Tawi-Tawi capital of Bongao, where the body of murdered OMI priest, Fr Jesus Reynaldo Roda, was taken on Saturday. Fr Bert Layson, parish priest of Pikit, North Cotabato said: "They were united. Even the Muslims there brought food." Abdul Khan, a member of the Darul Ifta (House of Opinion) in Tawi-Tawi, said Muslims in the entire province were in mourning. "We lost a dear friend. The Darul Ifta condemns the killing. Fr Roda was well loved because he was so kind. In fact, he built a mosque for Muslim students on the Notre Dame campus," Khan said. Fr Roda, a member of the Oblates of Mary Immaculate (OMI) congregation, was director of the Notre Dame school in Tabawan town and head of the mission station there. He would have been 54 next month. The OMI the Notre Dame school and community outreach humanitarian projects, including microfinance livelihood project of Samah and Tausug fisherfolk. The ten gunmen who killed Roda are still holding captive Omar Taup, a teacher at Notre Dame, and fisherman Hussin Sahirul, who they seized as they fled, said Superintend Wainwright Taup, the police director of Tawi-Tawi. Taup said a huge police and marine operation is now underway to capture the killer and their captives, who are belived to be hiding on one of the small islands in the area. Tawi-Tawi Vice Govornor Ruby Sahali-Tan said: "The provincial board strongly condemns the brutal murder of Fr Roda, who had been helping improve the lives of people in one of the towns in Tawi-Tawi." Sheikh Mohammad Muntassir, head of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front's Da'wah (Call to Islam) Committee, said the lives of noncombatants, including priests, were held inviolable in Islam. He condemned the killing and said it was an indication of the worsening security situation in the country. The Philippine Council for Islam and Democracy (PCID) also denounced the killing as barbaric, and said Roda was a loss not only to his family and religious order but to "all peace-loving people." Roda's death "demonstrates that peace is difficult and requires the most heroic labour and the most difficult sacrifice. Father Rey has made the supreme and heroic sacrifice," the PCID. Archbishop Angel Lagdameo of Jaro, president of the Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines (CBCP), said he was "deeply saddened" by the cruel death of Fr Roda. Fr Ramon Bernabe, head of the OMI in the Philippines, said the congregation was saddened by the death of a dedicated missionary who offered his life for the poor. Fr Bernabe said Fr Roda had received threats but was so dedicated to his work he never asked for a transfer Fr Roda will be buried at the OMI cemetery in Shariff Kabunsuan province on 23 January.

Presentation will explore a framework for integrated modeling and decision support in automotive, aerospace, and industrial companies.
Riverside, CT – Collaborative Product Development Associates (CPDA), a provider of critical analyses for PLM decisions, announces that Siemens PLM Software's Vice President of Teamcenter, Stephen M. Bashada, will join Georgia Tech's Dr. Chris Paredis and Hewlett-Packard's Christian Verstraete as a keynote speaker at PLM Road Map™ 2011 which will take place at The Inn at St. John's, outside of Detroit, on October 4th and 5th.
In his keynote presentation, A PLM Backbone for Comprehensive, Integrated Modeling and Decision Support, Steve Bashada will explore a framework for world-class PLM backbones in automotive, aerospace, and industrial companies. PLM tackles a neverending challenge: to integrate all product development and manufacturing engineering processes. That long-term mandate means PLM systems must evolve and adapt as they link a growing array of tools across an expanding set of disciplines. For example: Tying model-based systems engineering with detailed design creates new opportunities for semantically rich modeling. Embedded software management introduces subtle configuration logic, while the product master release process demands strict transactional integrity across complex databases. New modes of collaboration introduce new concepts for product structure and variety, and flexible data grouping becomes essential to precise communication across multiple product representations. The comprehensiveness and scale of modern PLM solutions marks a major shift from data management to comprehensive, integrated modeling and decision support. The presentation will also introduce new approaches for supporting multi-disciplinary modeling and real-time decision making during product and process development.
As Vice President of Teamcenter for Siemens PLM Software (Siemens), Steve Bashada was awarded the prestigious "Top Innovator Award" from Siemens in 2009 for his development and deployment of the Unified Teamcenter Architecture. Steve assumed his current role in 2001 following the merger of Engineering Animation, Inc. (EAI), SDRC, and Unigraphics Solutions. At Siemens, Steve drove the vision and development of the Teamcenter portfolio including Systems Engineering, DMU, Program Management, CAD Data Management, Mechatronics, Visualization and integration of Manufacturing Applications. Steve joined EAI in December 1998 as the Director of Marketing and was promoted to Vice President of Marketing and Development in August 1999. He was named Vice President and General Manager of Open Enterprise Visualization Solutions in November 1999, assuming responsibility for development, marketing, and business operations. Prior to joining EAI, Steve served as the President of the Applications Development Division at Sterling Software, and as Senior Vice President of Operations for KnowledgeWare, delivering product and process tools that facilitate the design and delivery of enterprise applications.
PLM Road Map™ 2011 is a strategic conference focused on the next generation of PLM integration. Explore firsthand the progress, opportunities, and roadblocks currently confronting end-users.

Published: October 20, 2009
Pilgrims guards have demonstrated their ability to stay calm under pressure by saving the life of a contractor who had suffered a heart attack during the course of their shift.
The guards, based at the Dagenham site of pharmaceuticals company Sanofi-Aventis, reacted with virtually perfect textbook skills and drills when discovering that a contractor working on site had collapsed and stopped breathing.
Pilgrims' guards on duty responded without hesitation and upon arrival at the scene quickly determined that the victim had suffered a heart attack.
Part of the Pilgrims training programme includes medical and incident response training, which the guards had completed as part of their SOPs (Standard Operating Procedure). This training was put to good use in responding to this incident quickly and effectively. Two of the guards administered CPR whilst their supervisor controlled the scene. The remainder of the staff continued to ensure that site security was not compromised whilst the incident occurred.
The critical condition of the gentleman at the time later became more poignant as it emerged that his heart stopped seven times on the way to hospital. Whilst the guards had only cared for the victim for a matter of minutes, they gave the paramedics the vital time needed to keep him alive long enough for them to stabilise him and deliver him to intensive care.
"This case shows that enlisting and training guards effectively with a range of skills is imperative," said David Freear, Director of Operations for Pilgrims. "Security guards are there to protect and incidents such as this show that investing in your staff means they are far more likely to give a first class response. Just one incident shows clients the tremendous benefits of investment in a good quality guarding company with thorough training procedures."
Thanks to the guards' quick thinking and actions the man has now made a full recovery. Pilgrims has awarded the guards with certificates of special commendation.

Bye to Zoe and hello to Bianca & Daniel
South Yarra Travel Blog› entry 136 of 206 › view all entries
Today I got up early to chat to Karen at home, before meeting Zoe for a bit of breakfast at Red Orange cafe on Commercial Road off Chapel St. We had planned to watch Wog Boy with David (an example of Australia cinema) but he had to run off to his parents, so we sat and watched it without him before heading out to the Lucky Coq pub which serves $4 gourmet pizzas Sunday to Thursday. They were really great value and really delicious. After that we wandered around Chapel Street a bit more (spent a bit of time in the pet shop cooing over a tortoiseshell kitten we called Camu, short for Camouflage) before heading back to Zoe's hostel to pick up her stuff and I escorted her to Central Station so she could head off to the airport for her flight to Perth. I caught a tram from there to Albert Park to go and visit more friends from London, Bianca and Daniel. I hadn't seen them for 4 years or so, and they had just got two lovely kittens, which was ironic considering my afternoon. Bianca cooked a great salmon meal and we had loads of catching up to do. They also burned some Australian music CDs for me in my ongoing quest to get lots of Aussie music and film! Thankfully Daniel dropped me off as we finished up late, in his friend's indigo-coloured Ute! (Utility truck)

Be A Smart Philanthropist
Even in hard times, Americans make giving back a high priority. About 95% of American households give to charities, according to surveys by the National Philanthropic Trust, a nonprofit that tracks charitable donations and activities. Smart donors favor charities that actually benefit needy people, and not the execs and administrators. Here's how to tell them apart...
How To Find the Best Charities
If you have a phone or a mailbox, you probably get solicitations from various charities regularly. But how can you tell if a charity is legit? How can you find out if they're funneling donations to the people they claim to be helping, or if the cash is mostly spent on fundraising, salaries and perks?
The average annual household contribution to charity is around $3,000, says the NPT. For sure, that average includes large donations as well as spare change tossed into the Salvation Army's red pot. But Americans definitely feel the urge to give back to the less fortunate.
But where there's money, there are scammers looking for undeserved gains. Even charities that seem legit on the surface don't necessarily exist to help the downtrodden; some are just money-laundering schemes for their owners. CNN did a number on "the worst charity in America" back in May, 2016.
The National Vietnam Veterans Foundation collected more than $29 million in donations from 2010 to 2015, according to required IRS filings. The foundation's site claims it exists solely for the purpose of "aiding, supporting and benefiting America's veterans and their families."
But CNN found that less than 2% of all donations received by NVVF in 2015 actually did any good for any veterans. The rest went for things like "travel" ($133,000), "awards" ($21,000), "other expenses" ($70,000) and even $8,000 for "parking." The CEO and founder of NVVF, J. Thomas Burch, pulled a $65,000 salary in addition to his parking and other expenses.
The best part: Mr. Burch is a veteran, and he works as an attorney for the Veterans Administration! The VA told CNN there's nothing improper about an employee also running a charitable organization, but after hearing CNN's findings the Inspector General has taken an intererest in Mr. Burch, who drives a Rolls Royce to and from his government job.
Outrageous Expenses
When I get a phone call that starts out like this: "Hi, my name is Mike, and I'm a paid caller on behalf of (some charity)," I hang up immediately. You can bet that any organization using a paid caller to solicit funds is giving a big chunk of your donation to a telemarketing firm. If the caller doesn't say, I recommend that you ask if they are a volunteer or a paid caller.
Other organizations spend millions on direct mail campaigns to raise funds, and end up giving only a tiny fraction of those funds to people in need. A mailer from the United States Deputy Sheriff's Association caught my attention recently. This group claims to be "Serving the needs of county law enforcement nationwide," but only $150,000 of the $3.3 million they raised in 2014 was used for that purpose. Would you like to know how I found that information? Read on!
Check Before You Write That Check
Before giving your hard-earned money to a cause, make sure the money will be spent as you intend. Look up any charitable organization in Charity Navigator's database of IRS filings. If you're looking for a charity in a specific niche, browse by categories such as Animals, Art & Culture, Education, Environment, Human Rights, or Religion.
You'll find out how much a charity spends on fundraising, executive salaries, and other overhead. You'll also find smart tips on how to give in-kind donations (hint: don't send cocktail dresses to earthquake victims).
Charity Navigator also has a Fake Charities page, which lists several dozen bogus charities. You might think that "Disabled Veterans of America" or "Fresh Start Opportunities" sound legitimate enough. But these and others on the list are actually soliciting funds in violation of federal tax law. (The scammer who ran the fake DVA was sentenced to up to 10 years in prison.) Click on any of the fake charities listed on this page, and in addition to details on the organization, you'll find a list of similar charities that ARE legit.
Don't let the flim-flammers kill your kindness. Give from your heart. But also use your head. Your thoughts on this topic are welcome. Post your comment or question below...

Unfortunately, even some legitimate charities waste most of their money on salaries, TV ads, travel, etc. There are several good charity rating sites. In addition to charitynavigator.org (mentioned above by Bob), there is charitywatch.org, give.org, etc. If you are not careful, you may be giving to Donald Trump's charity foundation which uses its money to pay his legal bills. By the way, the Trump Foundation is not rated because it is a "private foundation" and doesn't file most information returns that the rating sites use.

Once again you gave us a most excellent article. Thank you.

A charity that relies strongly on unpaid volunteers to raise money could actually be shortchanging itself. Is it better to spend $10,000 raising $100,000, or to spend $300,000 raising $600,000?
Posted by:
Based on first-hand reports of associates who worked with/for many of the larger charities, as well as reports from third parties, I quit donating to them long ago. Now I donate to local charities where I can actually see where my money/goods are used. There are a few national ones that keep the donations in the local area, which I sometimes also support.

Great advice Bob!
Can't go wrong giving to the Red Cross.

First I declare an interest. I am a disabled person, son of a disabled person and husband and care provider for another disabled person.
Even the legitimate charities have a problem. Many have very highly paid workers who have qualifications in 'charity' and move from one cause to another without any thought for the people who they leave behind.
In answer to the 10% or 50% question above I would prefer the 590.000 going to the people it was given to benefit rather than to paid workers who have moved on from selling used cars. In fact I would prefer to go without and have never received one penny piece of 'aid' from a charity.
The real problem is what do the people who need do if we stop being charitable? Even 10% of something is better than 100% of nothing when people really need it.
The changes can only come with stricter regulation of charities.
P.S. I am a UK Citizen with an extended family here and in the US, my wife retains her US Citizenship.

Excellent article. I wish I had a dime for every phone call or piece mail I receive in the name of charity. My elderly mother was told by her mailman that she receives the most mail on his route and it

I never, ever, give money to any organization that calls me. Period. Charities that we used to donate to have lost our support this way.
I refuse to subsidize telemarketing, which I believe to be a criminal invasion of privacy and invitation to being scammed.
If we all made telemarketing unprofitable by refusing to talk to then and certainly refusing to open our wallets to them, maybe we'd once again be able to enjoy an uninterrupted dinner and peaceful evening.
Posted by:
I do not make contributions over the phone. I tell them so and hangup. No worries!
Posted by:
Charity Navigator is great!!
I donate only to charities that use at least 80% of their income for the program; that don't call me on the phone; and that don't send me any free goodies. That narrows the list considerably.
Posted by:
I give money mainly to local well known charities, and often in the form of supplies that the charity has on an Amazon wish list.
Ultimately if you can manage it, donating your time to a favorite charity or organization is well worth the effort. (I spend Sunday afternoons helping out at the local animal shelter)
Posted by:
One caveat: charitable work can be done on a very small scale and be worth your dollar, but the smallest charities may not be large enough to deal with all the paperwork. My sister worked with a group that ran a daycare center for disadvantaged children. They didn't have the resources to keep up with all the requirements, yet the work they did was first-rate, and there was very little waste. You have to do some digging on our own in cases like this, but your money can end up a lot of good.
Posted by:
I've been using Charity Navigator and occasionally Charity Watch for years. I used to want the charity to have a very high percentage of the donations go to the programs (i.e. the actual work of the charity). However, I've come to understand that having a very hard percentage is difficult for a new or small organization. Spending some money on soliciting donations is sometimes necessary. So I've eased that goal somewhat to 80%. I do not like charities that waste their money sending me unsolicited "free gifts" -- usually stuff I have no interest in -- hoping to guilt me into sending money. I don't object to offering a premium that I can chose to accept or not.
