Who Is Carolyn Jordan?
She ran for Lake County Recorder against Michelle Fajmin one time and had $800.00 dollars in her war chest. Yet, she was able to garner 9,000 votes in Gary. Where Michelle Fajmin allegedly gave Elsie Franklin $10,000 for endorsement of Gary Democratic Precinct Organization and garnered 800 votes. Somewhere in middle of 2017, word was out that they were gonna give Carolyn Jordan $5,000 to stay out of the Lake County Recorder race. This time was around. We fast forward to 2018 and discover that Lake County Recorder Mike Brown is being sued by a woman working in his office. Furthermore, this woman is suing Mike Brown for trading sex for full time employment, etc. Thus, the deal of $5,000 for Carolyn Jordan to stay out of the recorder race was now "off the table".
Part II
Then the focus shifted to getting Carolyn Jordan to run for Lake County Clerk, and they would "play for everything". This was floating around in Gary, and they "made their moves" to try and set the table (Lake County Bro).
Part III
Heard on the phone that Carolyn Jordan had a heart. Sure, hope Carolyn Jordan the best and steady recovery. 70 years old and worked at Calumet Township Trustee office. P.S., Michelle Fajmin said that she personally drove out to the precincts in Gary to look for herself… Nobody was wearing my streamers or passing out my pluggers and literature. Michelle Fajmin was pissed as she talked.

Solemnity of Our Lord Jesus Christ, King of the Universe
Last Sunday in Ordinary Time B
John 18: 33-37
Apocalypse 1:5-8
Daniel 7:13-14
November 26, 2006
Mass in Thanksgiving For My Twenty Years of Priesthood
Worthy is the Lamb
As we crossed the threshold into the Sacred Mysteries today, we sang of a breathtaking vision. John, the Beloved Disciple, in solitude on the island of Patmos, lifted his eyes to heaven's open door. And what did he see? He saw the throne of God, and "the Lamb, standing as though it had been slain" (Ap 5:6). John's eyes were opened, and so too were his ears. "Then, I looked," he says, "and I heard around the throne and the living creatures and the elders the voice of many angels, numbering myriads of myriads and thousands of thousands, singing with a loud voice, 'Worthy is the Lamb who was slain, to receive power and wealth and wisdom and might and honour and blessing'" (Ap 5:11-12).
A Glimpse and Foretaste of Heaven
In a word, John was given a glimpse and foretaste of the heavenly liturgy. And then he heard "every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea, and all therein, saying, 'To Him who sits upon the throne and to the Lamb be blessing and honour and glory and might forever and ever!' And the four living creatures said. 'Amen!' and the elders fell down and adored" (Ap 5:13–14).
Heaven in the Heart and the Heart in Heaven
The priest, every priest, is a poor man, "a man of unclean lips dwelling in the midst of a people of unclean lips" (Is 6:5) at the service of this glorious mystery. When the priest, whoever he is and wherever he may be, enters the sanctuary for Holy Mass, the angels enter with him, myriads of myriads of angels and thousands of thousands. Heaven descends to rest upon the altar and, from the altar, the whole Church — that is all who gathered about it — are assumed into heaven. Holy Mass is just this: an hour in heaven. The priest and, with him, anyone who partakes of the Holy Mysteries, believing, hoping, loving, desiring, and adoring, leaves church with heaven in his heart and with his heart in heaven.
From the Altar and For the Altar
It is this that makes all the rest possible: weakness, failure, sorrow, tears, struggle, and uncertainty. Without that daily hour in heaven nothing is possible for me, for you: coming from it and going toward it, all things are possible. The priest — every priest and every person entrusted to his spiritual fatherhood — lives from the altar and for the altar, from the Mass and for the Mass, and this until the glimpse and foretaste of heaven given here and now in sacred signs gives place to the glorious reality.
The King Powerless and Humiliated
If the Introit alone pointed to the mystery of today's festival, it would be enough. But there is more. Together with the sounds and sights of glory, there is the sound and sight of One "despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief" (Is 53:3). Does it not seem strange that on this Solemnity of Our Lord Jesus Christ, King of the Universe, the Gospel should draw our gaze to Jesus in the mystery of His powerlessness and humiliation? We come to Mass on the festival of Christ the King expecting a Jesus crowned with glory, a Jesus shining with majesty and splendour, a victorious Jesus "robed with might and girded with power" (Ps 92). Instead, we find a powerless Jesus, a humiliated Jesus, a Jesus "wounded for our transgressions and bruised for our iniquities" (Is 53:5).
His Hands Are Bound
His hands are bound and fastened: hands all-powerful and all-merciful, hands used to heal the sick, give sight to the blind, and bless the little children. In vain do we look in today's Gospel for a crown of gold and precious stones. See instead a crown of thorns, fashioned out of hatred and scorn. He whom the angels escort with fear and adoration, is abandoned by men. "You have taken away my friends, and made me hateful in their sight," says the prophetic psalm. "Imprisoned I cannot escape; my eyes are sunken with grief" (Ps 87:9-10). Truth stands trial in a court of corruption. A dark and awful solitude surrounds Him. "Truth has gone from the sons of men; falsehood they speak one to another, with lying lips, with a false heart" (Ps 11:2-3). "Friend and neighbour you have taken away: my only friend is darkness" (Ps 87:19).
The Priest: Man of Sorrows and Acquainted With Grief
The Gospel sets before us the icon of the sorrowful and humiliated priesthood. Every priest is called in some measure to become with Christ "one despised and rejected by men, an man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief" (Is 53:3). Every priest is set apart in Christ to bear the grief of others and to carry their sorrows. Every priest is called not only to the power of hands anointed with Sacred Chrism, but also, in certain situations, to the powerlessness of hands bound like those of the suffering Christ.
The Priest and the Pierced Heart
Every priest is destined to bear the wounds of Christ — not emblematically like Saint Pio of Pietrelcina — but inwardly as the marks of his identfication with Christ the Sacrificial Victim "by whose wounds we are healed" (1 P 2:24). In the chapel of the Apostles of the Sacred Heart in Hamden, Connecticut there is a crucifix that depicts Christ the Priest; He is vested in the chasuble, and His arms are spread wide upon the cross. There is a remarkable detail: His wounded Heart is shown on the outside of the chasuble. The mediatorship of Christ the Eternal High Priest passes through His wounded side and His open Heart. The man configured to Him by the sacrament of Holy Orders to share in that mediatorship must, necessarily suffer in some way the opening of his own heart by the lance. A priest without wounds is not a priest of Jesus Christ.
The Priest in Darkness
In today's Gospel there is no trace of triumph. It is the eclipse of the Sun of Justice. The darkness began in Gethsemani after the institution of the Eucharist and the Priesthood, and climaxed on the Tree of the Cross. In the tomb the darkness will be complete. The priest, every priest, is called to become a man familiar with the darkness: the darkness of Gethsemani, the darkness of Calvary, the darkness of the tomb. This too is integral to his identification with Christ of whom the prophet says, "I am the man who has seen affliction under the rod of His wrath; He has driven and brought me into darkness without any light" (Lam 3:1–2).
The Hidden Kingship of Christ
The kingship of Christ is hidden, His power concealed, His majesty inward, His glory veiled. Pilate scrutinizes the young rabbi from Galilee. What is this delusion of kingship? What is this rumor of a kingdom? Pilate, the all-powerful representative of an all-powerful empire, is intrigued by Jesus in His weakness. Where is this kingdom of His? Can its boundaries be located on a map? Has He palace, court, or army? He appears to hold sway over the hearts of those who believe in Him, and yet He was betrayed by one of His chosen collaborators, handed over by His own people and by the chief priests.
Yes, I Am a King
Pilate asks Him: "Are you the King of the Jews" (Jn 18:33)? Jesus is not duped; He sees into the secret of Pilate's heart, probes his intentions, sifts his motives. "My kingship is not of this world" (Jn 18:36) says Jesus. "Mine is not an empire built up by bloody conquests and defended by armies." "If my kingship were of this world, my servants would fight . . . but my kingship is not from the world" (Jn 18:36). "So, you are a king then," says Pilate (Jn 18:37). "It is you who say it" (Jn 18:37), says Jesus. Then, solemnly and deliberately, Jesus affirms it: "Yes, I am a King" (Jn 18:37). "I am a King, but in a way that is above and beyond any notions of kingship that you may have."
Way, Truth, and Life
Jesus exercises His Kingship by revealing revealing Himself as Truth, and Way, and Life (cf. Jn 14:6). "No one can come to Me," says Our Lord, "unless the Father who sent me draw him" (Jn 6:44) and "no one comes to the Father, but by Me" (Jn 14:6). The priest, every priest, is at the service of the Kingship of Christ; that is to say, at the service of the Truth by preaching it; at the service of the Way by walking in it humbly; at the service of Life, by dispensing it in the sacraments.
The Priest: A Man of Silence
Jesus establishes His Kingdom in the gentleness and inexhaustible patience of the Holy Spirit; so too must the priest. It is this that obliges the priest, every priest, to be a man of silence, a man who listens. "And behold, the Lord passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains and broke in pieces the rocks before the Lord, but the Lord was not in the wind; and after the wind an earthquake, but the Lord was not in the earthquake; and after the earthquake a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire; and after the fire a still, small voice" (1 K 19:11-12). The Kingdom of God is revealed in the still small voice of the Holy Spirit. This is what Pilate failed to hear; this is what we, more often than not, drown out in the noise of our own hearts: the first stirrings of the Kingdom. "None of the rulers of this age understood this," says Saint Paul, "for if they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of Glory" (1 Cor 2:8).
Holy Priests Engender Holy People
The Kingdom of God is established in the earth when hearts are established in holiness. The priest, every priest, is called to nothing less than holiness. Holy priests engender a holy people. The priest, every priest, is called to father holiness in souls. Hearts are established in holiness when they surrender to Jesus, the King of Love. Not only is holiness compatible with freedom; holiness is freedom, and true freedom is holiness. Jesus manifests His Kingship not by taking us captive, but by making us free, and He makes us free by the gift of the Holy Spirit. "Where the Spirit of the Lord is", says Saint Paul, "there is freedom" (2 Cor 3:17).
Priests to Serve His God and Father
In a few moments I will go to the altar, just as I have done day after day for the past twenty years of priesthood: a complete Rosary of years with mysteries joyful, luminous, sorrowful and glorious. To all of you I say, with John, the Seer of Patmos, that Christ the King "loves us and has washed away our sins with His blood, and made us a line of kings, priests to serve His God and Father" (Rev 1:5).
Prayer to the Holy Spirit
Come, Holy Spirit, Anointing of every priest of Jesus Christ, and of the priestly people sanctified by His Blood. Allow us, like the prophet Daniel, to "gaze into the visions of the night, so as to see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven" (Dan 7:13). Open our eyes to gaze upon the altar so as to see "the King of all who comes escorted invisibly by angelic hosts" (Cherubikon, Liturgy of Saint John Chrysostom). Give all of us today, by the sacramental mediation of the priesthood given me in my unworthiness, to taste the joy and glory of Christ's Kingship over our hearts and in our lives, that we may sing with one voice: "Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the Highest!" (Mt 21:9).

Veterinary vaccines have had, and continue to have, a major role in protecting animal health and public health, reducing animal suffering, enabling efficient production of food animals to feed the burgeoning human population, and greatly reducing the need for antibiotics to treat food and companion animals. Prominent examples include rabies vaccines and rinderpest vaccines. Rabies vaccines for domestic animals and wildlife have nearly eliminated human rabies in developed countries. Thanks to the Global Rinderpest Eradication Program which involves vaccination, trade restrictions, and surveillance, rinderpest may soon become only the second disease (after smallpox) to be globally eradicated. Successful examples of new technology animal vaccines that are licensed for use, include gene-deleted marker vaccines, virus-like-particle vaccines, recombinant modified live virus vaccines, chimeric vaccines, and DNA vaccines. Animal vaccines also use a wide variety of novel adjuvants that are not yet approved for use in human vaccines. Animal vaccines can be developed and licensed much more quickly than human vaccines. The West Nile virus was discovered in the United States in August 1999. By August 2001, an Equine vaccine for West Nile virus was conditionally licensed. For animal vaccines to effectively protect animal and public health they must be widely used, which means they must be affordable. The regulatory process must meet the need for assuring safety and efficacy without increasing the cost of licensing and production to the point where they are not affordable to the end user.

Kicking Horse Mountain Resort (KHMR) is a ski resort located 6.4 kilometres (4.0 mi) west of Golden, British Columbia, Canada. It features over 120 trails across more than 3,486 acres (14.11 km2) of skiable terrain and a 1,315-metre (4,314 ft) vertical drop, currently the sixth largest of any North American ski resort.[2] The resort, named after the nearby Kicking Horse River and Kicking Horse Pass, spans the easternmost slope of the Purcell Mountains overlooking the Rocky Mountain Trench. It is located roughly 7 kilometres (4 mi) east of Glacier National Park and 23 kilometres (14 mi) west of Yoho National Park.

Whitetooth Ski Area, a smaller facility owned by the town of Golden opened in 1986 with the installation of the Pioneer Chair and three runs on 2,000 feet of vertical.[3] Over the following years, additional runs and glades were cut expanding the skiable terrain. The mountain became popular with skiers from adjacent towns on Powder Fridays as the hill was closed Monday through Thursday, so any new snow that fell during the week was untracked.
Towards the end of the 90's, locals became increasingly concerned about the financial viability of Whitetooth in the event that the Pioneer chair ever needed to be replaced. In 1996, Mayor Fred Demmon approached Vancouver architect Oberto Oberti[4][5][6] and discussed the possibility of finding investors to rehabilitate Whitetooth. Oberto Oberti presented the opportunity to his client, Ballast Nedam, the company that constructed the Confederation Bridge.[7] Ballast Nedam was obligated to re-invest in Canada as part of its contract[8] and purchased Whitetooth after the community voted 92.8 percent in favour of the sale on September 20, 1997. Oberto Oberti's office prepared a new Master Plan for the resort, which was approved in 1999, along with a Master Development Agreement with the Province of British Columbia.
Construction began in the summer of 2000 and the expanded resort, now featuring the Eagle Eye Gondola and Catamount fixed grip chair, reopened under the new name on December 8, 2000. The majority of the skiable area consists of four large bowls (Crystal Bowl, Bowl Over, Feuz Bowl and Super Bowl) that combine about halfway down the mountain into a single area, with a fairly gentle ski-out to the lifts at the bottom. One run, It's a 10, is a 10 km long green run that connects the runs in the main Bowl areas. In 2002 a new chairlift (Stairway to Heaven) was added to allow access to a third bowl (Feuz Bowl), which generally sees less traffic. In 2010, a fourth bowl to the south of the existing resort (Super Bowl) was added to the area adding over 300 metres [9] of new vertical.
The resort applied for an expanded Master Plan, which was approved in 2009.[10] In 2011, the resort was sold to Resorts of the Canadian Rockies, the current owners.
The hill is served primarily by a high-speed gondola, the Golden Eagle Express, that rises from the base area to the peak. Two smaller chairlifts also operate from the base area, a fixed-grip quad (Catamount) and a fixed-grip double (Pioneer - a relic from Whitetooth days). Another fixed-grip quad (Stairway to Heaven) serves the upper areas to the north of the gondola, including the third bowl. Uphill capacity is generally limited, however, and most skiers need to return to the summit via the gondola at the base of the mountain. The limited terrain park is compensated by the natural terrain and exceptional backcountry access.[citation needed]

Winter activitiesEdit
Kicking Horse is frequented by skiers, snowboarders, snowskaters and telemarkers.
Annual snowfall ranges from 254 cm (100") at the bottom of the mountain to 700 cm (275") at the summit. The total in boundary ski area is over 2800 Acres. The slopes are well known for the light and dry snow, dubbed Champagne Powder. The resort is open for skiing from mid December to mid April, and for mountain biking and sightseeing from late June to early October.
Ski terrainEdit
The gondola accesses CPR Ridge, Crystal Bowl and Bowl Over. Crystal Bowl is large and open, providing intermediate skiing and is the easiest way down from the gondola. Bowl Over is also open but much steeper and often has more moguls than Crystal Bowl. In 2007, a trail was made to allow for advanced intermediate skiing into Bowl Over. CPR ridge is situated between the two bowls. One side of the ridge, the Crystal Bowl side, provides some of the 75 inbound chutes available at Kicking Horse. These chutes range from advanced to expert skiing. The other side of CPR Ridge is a series of glades.[citation needed]
Stairway to Heaven is a fixed chair lift that is situated at the bottom of Crystal Bowl and accesses White Wall, Feuz Bowl and Redemption Ridge. White Wall is a quick hike right of the chair and is rated expert skiing for some rock bands and large cornices. Feuz Bowl is advanced skiing, quite similar to CPR ridge. Stairway to Heaven follows Redemption Ridge. On one side are chutes into Feuz Bowl and the other side is a series of glades back into Crystal Bowl.[citation needed]
Terminator Ridge and Terminator Peak are situated on the left side of Bowl Over. On the south side of Terminator Ridge Super Bowl can be accessed. On the north side a few steep, narrow, expert chutes come back into Bowl Over. The hike to the top of Terminator Ridge is often well traveled and takes from fifteen to thirty minutes, depending on fitness.[citation needed]
|Total Runs
|137 including all inbound chutes
Backcountry accessEdit
Kicking Horse has exceptional backcountry access. South of the resort, Super Bowl can be accessed by hiking up Terminator Ridge. North of the resort, Rudi's Bowl and many other backcountry assets are accessible.
Summer activitiesEdit
Mountain bikingEdit
Kicking Horse is open during the summer for downhill mountain biking accessed by the gondola. After Whistler's 5,020 vertical drop, Kicking horse provides the second longest descent in Canada for mountain biking.

Snappily titled SJTU-ARWU Field rankings have just been published. These are the companion tables to the overall world rankings produced by the team at SJTU. Due to overwhelming demand it seems:
Since the first publication of Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU) in 2003, we have received numerous requests to provide ranking of world universities by broad subject fields/schools/colleges and by subject fields/programs/departments. In addition, many top Chinese universities are interested in learning their positions in the world by subjects. In response to the requests, we have been studying the possibility of ranking world universities by broad subject fields. This is the final results of 2008 Academic Ranking of World Universities by Broad Subject Fields (ARWU – FIELD 2008); top 100 world universities in each of five broad subject fields are provided.
The University of Nottingham does rather well in three of these tables: top 30 in Clinical Medicine and Phamacy, Top 50 for Agricultural and Life Sciences, and the world's Top 100 universities in the Social Sciences.

We all want comments, right? Good ones, that is. Unfortunately most blogs, especially new blogs, receive very few real comments from real people (everyone gets spam comments though).
Well, firstly, if your blog has no traffic, you will not receive any comments.
If no one is reading your blog then no one will leave comments either. Simply posting great
articles to your blog is not enough – you have to market your blog to bring people to it.
But what if you do have some traffic… and you're still not getting comments?
Generate more comments to your blog:
– Write articles that reference or focus on other bloggers. You will get their attention that way and there's a good chance they will come to your blog and leave a comment as a result
– Ask your readers a question at the end of your article
– Write about topics that stimulate conversation, such as current events
– Be controversial with your writing. Have a strong opinion and others with strong opinions
will reply to argue or agree with you
– Join in in the conversations once you've got a couple comments
– Look at the posts that generate comments and compare those without and do more of the kind that attract comments
– Ask you subscribers what kinds of posts they'd like to see more of?
And on that note, what would you prefer to have more of?
Just leave a comment to tell me! By the way, I have a new book coming your way shortly – Power Up Your Squeeze Page – which will cover just about every aspect of using squeeze pages you can think of, from concept to creation to traffic generation. I wrote it as an answer to all the kinds of questions I had when I first started out online. More on that soon.

Report of the committee
Tuesday, May 31, 2016
The Standing Senate Committee on Social Affairs, Science and Technology has the honour to table its
Your committee, which was authorized to examine the subject matter of those elements contained in Division 12 of Part 4 of Bill C-15, An Act to implement certain provisions of the budget tabled in Parliament on March 22, 2016 and other measures, has, in obedience to the order of reference of Tuesday, May 3, 2016, examined the said subject matter and now reports as follows:
On May 19, 2016, your committee heard witnesses on the subject matter of Division 12 of Part 4 of Bill C-15: an Act to implement certain provisions of the budget tabled in Parliament on March 22, 2016, and other measures.
Your committee understands that Division 12 would amend the Employment Insurance Act by reducing the waiting period prior to the payment of employment insurance (EI) benefits from two weeks to one week; removing the provisions relating to new entrants and re-entrants to the labour force; and, extending the number of weeks of benefits for workers in regions affected by an economic downturn related to commodity prices.
Your committee supports the changes proposed in Bill C-15 to the Employment Insurance Act but makes the following observations:
Your committee is concerned that there is insufficient clarity and transparency with respect to the criteria used to determine the EI economic regions listed within the proposed provisions. While it recognizes that some description of the criteria was provided within the text of the federal budget tabled on March 22, 2016, it agrees with witnesses who indicated there was insufficient specificity provided in the description to replicate the regions identified in the provisions.
Your committee is also concerned about the potential negative impact on small businesses that could result from the decrease in waiting period for the payment of EI benefits from two weeks to one. While there is general support for the reduction in the waiting period, members are concerned about the effect this change may have on pay systems of small businesses. It notes the testimony it heard that any negative impact these changes may have on small business may be compounded by the elimination of the small business job credit (SMJC). The SMJC reduced EI premiums for employers, and your committee is concerned that the projection for EI rate reduction will not be sufficient to compensate for the loss of the SMJC. Your committee suggests that the cost impact of changing pays systems, as well as the need for additional negotiations with unions, should be taken into account when implementing the change to the waiting period from two weeks to one.
Finally, your committee would like to make a general observation that the current approach to EI with respect to applying region-specific criteria is outdated and results in unnecessary disparity from one region in Canada to another. It urges the federal government to assess this approach.
Respectfully submitted,

Experts Offer Cloudy Financial Forecast for 2012
COLUMBUS, Ga. -- As if on cue, just before economic experts began offering their predictions for 2012 Wednesday morning, the sun broke through the clouds outside the Cunningham Center at Columbus State University.
The invited guests at the Financial Forecast 2012 State of the Market breakfast organized by CSU's Turner College of Business and Computer Science then heard opinions that mirrored the way the sun was darting in and out of the clouds.
"For 2012, we can look for a repeat of the last two years," said keynote speaker Dorsey Farr, co-founder and chief strategist of French, Wolf and Farr, an Atlanta-based investment firm. "Optimism is building. We think it will continue for a while as the data recently has been pretty good. But ultimately I think we are in for disappointment."
Other speakers at the breakfast were part of a panel of local business representatives: Mark Hudson, senior vice president at SunTrust Bank; Richard Illges, partner at Greatmark Investment Partners; Robert Nobles, vice president and regional investment manager at Synovus Trust Co.; and John Shinkle, senior vice president and branch manager at Stifel Nicolaus & Co.
On the whole, their forecasts were more optimistic than Farr's but tempered as well.
"We've already seen analysts cut their estimates, but we don't see them cutting them by enough or fast enough," Farr said. "We think we're going to see another volatile environment."

UK teams invest in freeing up time for African researchers
Research in Africa is benefitting from a new approach to operational and administrative management aimed at building skills, freeing up time and ensuring research can flourish across the continent.
UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) is supporting the African Academy of Sciences (AAS) to maximise the effectiveness of research across Africa with the introduction of a bespoke management programme called Research Management Programme in Africa (ReMPRO Africa).
The programme has been jointly invested in by UKRI, AAS, the UK government's Department for International Development (DFID) and its Department of Health and Social Care, The Royal Society and Wellcome.
Professor Andrew Thompson, UKRI Executive Champion for International, explains: "Developing efficient research systems is a crucial, capacity-building component to ensure international development research delivers sustainable solutions for a fairer, healthier and more prosperous future for all. That's why UK Research and Innovation is delighted to be supporting the African Academy of Sciences in its ambitious programme to transform research systems in Africa. This programme will enhance the impact of current Global Challenges Research Fund investments and promote further collaboration between UK and African universities as we all work together to address the greatest challenges facing the world today."
AAS Director of Programmes Professor Tom Kariuki adds. "For years, African researchers have routinely been spending upwards of 80% of their working week on routine administration, working evenings and weekends to carry out their research. This can threaten the delivery, integrity and quality of research which is why specialist research management services are needed to free up their time."
ReMPRO Africa uses four pillars to build the skills and capacities for African research to flourish:
- Leadership
- Sustainability
- Standards
- Development of Individual Capacity
These ensure there are systems in place for strong research to thrive, there are mechanisms in place to ensure that institutions can support their own research management functions, regardless of funder or government support, there are common standards and best practices recognised by both institutions and funding partners and that there is an appropriate infrastructure of networks and training opportunities to promote professional research management career pathways.

Hilarious Video of Kids Telling Christmas Story in 'Bethle-ha-ha-ham' Goes Viral — Again
A hilarious viral video on how a group of children re-enacted the birth of Jesus that was first released last year has resurfaced on social media and has been drawing raves, Today reported.
In the video produced by Southland Christian Church, a group of children from the children's ministry of the church based in Kentucky are interviewed by church staff about their view on the Christmas story. The video shows adult actors dressed as biblical characters, sheep and even stars, acting out the kids' funny retelling of Jesus' birth.
"She was just doing laundry and then the angel just appeared and she was really scared," one child says as Mary is visited by Gabriel with news of her baby-to-be.
Later, Mary and Joseph ride into "Bethle-ha-ha-ham" in search of a place to stay, only to be turned away and end up delivering Jesus in a stable.
Hanna Wahlbrink, creative director at Southland Christian Church, says she and her team produced the video for the church's Christmas Eve service in 2015. One year later, the video continues to make people smile and fill them with the holiday spirit. It has received more than 92,000 views on Facebook.
Whalbrink told Today that what the children said in the video was not scripted. "We didn't ask them to say anything specific. We really wanted the kids to take the lead," she said.
When the wise men and shepherds arrive to visit baby Jesus in the manger, they gave as gifts stuffed animals, diapers, wipes, milk and Air Jordans. And with, "Gold, Frankenstein, and myrrh," adds one child.
"I don't know how it would survive in that barn," a child comments about the baby Jesus. "Too stinky. Too crowded."
Another child says she believes the new baby will "change the world," while another comments that she thinks Joseph looked at his son and exclaimed, "I love you, and you're the best baby I've ever seen. There. I said it."
It's cute comments like these that Neil Gregory, a video producer for the church,
Whalbrink said Southland Christian Church has been contacted by people everywhere in the world, including those from the U.S., Canada and Australia. They said the video has warmed their hearts and made them smile, regardless of their religious affiliation, she said.


text: Arabs Exclusive Iraq ISIS Islam Middle East Pentagon Syria Syrian War EXCLUSIVE: US Evacuates ISIS militants from Syria and Iraq to Afghanistan February 8, 2018/ By:Sophia Mangal/ No Comments On Sunday, February 4, 2018, Iranian Defense Minister Brigadier General Amir Hatami stated that the U.S. is transferring ISIS to Afghanistan to justify its presence in the Central Asian region. Brigadier General Amir Hatami emphasized that U.S. had created ISIS to dominate Syria and Iraq, but after the ISIS defeat in those two countries, the United States tried to transfer the group to Afghanistan in order to justify their continuing presence in this country. On Thursday, February 6, 2018, Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces Maj. Gen. Mohammad Bagheri blamed the U.S. for relocating members of the ISIS terrorist group from Syria and Iraq to Afghanistan. According to him, since ISIS and other terror groups lost their territories in Iraq and Syria, the Americans have been relocating the terrorists to Afghanistan by various means. Moreover, Mohammad Bagheri believes that Washington creates tension and conflict in Southwest Asia. "The US has to gather up its troops and leave the regional countries to take care of their own security," he added. For his part, the Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei said in late January that the goal behind Washington's move to relocate ISIS terrorists to Afghanistan is to justify its military presence in the region and to provide security for the Zionist regime. He also called the Americans as the main source of instability in Afghanistan. At the same time, by words of Khamenei, the U.S. intends to promote its political and economic interests through the destabilization of Afghanistan. It's worth noting that several days ago the U.S. started pulling its forces from Iraq. However, the American servicemen don't return to home soil. They are redeployed to Afghanistan, and it is not unlikely that they traveling with ISIS terrorists. According to many experts, the number of ISIS militants in Afghanistan is estimated at 7,000 fighters. Apart from existing forces, the redeployment of reinforcement from Iraq and Syria will allow them to strengthen positions in the country that is a direct threat to the civilians. Sophie Mangal is an American Patriot, 27, is a special investigative writer and contributor for ZionistReport.com. Her Hindu surname "Mangal" derives from the Sanskrit "mangala," meaning "auspicious." Sophie Mangal – a woman with a genuine passion for Syria, for the church, and for justice. After attending the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill as a media and journalism major, Mangal monitored the refugee crisis in Europe, drawing parallels between the Syrian conflict and the Balkan problem, and has visited Syria on several occasions.

"Time & Talent" are two of the three T's of Stewardship. The greatest misunderstanding about Stewardship is that most people think it is all about money, the third "T" of Time, Talent and Treasure. Stewardship is really about Evangelization, building your faith in Christ, and sharing your faith with others. Now is a wonderful time to prayerfully consider joining a ministry, if you are not involved. And become more involved in our Faith community by giving of your Time and Talent. In our Scriptures, "James 2:26" it says: Faith without works, is as dead as a body without breath. Your Time in prayer in Adoration for instance, is magnificent.
New to our Parish of St. Louis? If you are new in the area, new to our parish, or you have been coming for awhile, but you have not yet registered? We invite you to complete a parish registration form, which is available at the Welcome Table located in the entrance of the church. Our Welcome Table is there to help. Please stop by and ask any questions you may have. "WE ARE HERE TO SERVE YOU."
The promotion of the practice of Stewardship is important for the Mission of the Church and for the spiritual well-being of each individual Christian. Everyone benefits from the sacrificial gifts of our Time, Talent & Treasure.
– Pope Benedict XVI

Current practice
Disctrict court decision
Keyword advertising is a popular way for companies to increase their online exposure. Offered by search engine service providers, it involves the use of keywords in search terms which trigger the appearance of specific ads on search engine results pages. To ensure that ads remain relevant for web users, companies can employ a 'keyword insertion' feature, which updates the keywords that cause their ads to appear. However, the question remains as to whether a company's use of a competitor's trademark as a keyword in their keyword advertising constitutes trademark infringement.
Under Taiwan's current practice, determining whether the use of a competitor's trademark in keyword advertising constitutes trademark infringement depends on how the mark is used.
In general, the courts deem the use of a trademark non-actionable if it does not appear in the ad itself (ie, someone using the search terms would not assume that the ads belongs to the trademark owner). However, even if a competitor's trademark is not used in a company's ad, its use as a keyword in keyword advertising might be considered a violation of the Fair Trade Act.
In a recent trademark infringement case, the Taipei District Court upheld the established case law on this issue.
The complainant, a manufacturer of female undergarments, alleged that:
However, the defendant argued that:
In its decision, the Taipei District Court held that:
The court further suggested that, even if the ad had caused initial interest confusion and directed users to click the link, they would be able to identify that the website belonged to the defendant because it did not contain the complainant's trademark.
As the use of the trademark could not be seen by search engine users, the court held that its use in keyword advertising was non-actionable and that the defendant was not liable for trademark infringement.

There's the first wave at New Year's, the second wave at summertime and a smaller third wave around the holidays ("look good for New Year's parties!") Of course along with all the new diet programs and services, there's a whole new wave of exercise gizmos designed to burn fat and give you rock hard to-die-for abs. I've looked at a lot of these kinds of diets and doodads, mainly because my mom bought them and shoved them at me. I didn't try all of them but the ones I did try obviously didn't work. Not the magic 'fat-binding powder' or the deck of food cards to keep me from eating too much or even the food delivery program I picked out and bought myself. After so many years, I finally know why they didn't work: simply put, diets are temporary and temporary by definition does not last!
When I started losing weight and began looking for a long term solution, I found Paleo. Most people know this as the "Paleo diet" or the "Cave Man diet." In the Paleo community, most followers call it the "Paleo lifestyle," because a diet is temporary and many of us will not be going back to the way we ate before. For most of us who adopt a certain way of eating and living, it is by definition a 'lifestyle.' I'm not going to go all militant Paleo Stormtrooper on you and insist you call it a lifestyle, but I have learned that so much of the success with losing weight and getting healthier has to do with mindset as much as it does nutrition. This isn't just a semantics or a 'label' issue: I think this is fundamentally why diets don't work: instead of the diet mentality (I can go back to my old eating habits once I've lost weight), we need to change our thinking to "I am living a healthier life now." By thinking this is a temporary situation until we reach X goal, we are setting ourselves up for disappointment. I know how wonderful it feels when you finally lose weight: something is finally working! Hallelujah! And I also know how utterly hopeless it feels when you gain the weight back. This is why so many of us just give up and resign ourselves to being the 'fat woman' or the 'fat guy.' Obviously, there's something wrong with us, since 'Diet Program XYZ' didn't work for us. It works for everyone else, but either we did it wrong or we're just destined to be fat forever.
Well, odds are, we didn't 'do it wrong' nor is there something in our genes compelling our bodies to be fat forever. Diets are temporary solutions to life-long issues. By the time most of us reach our thirties, we have been dieting on and off for years, and despite that, we are still overweight. Many of us find as we get older that it's harder to lose weight, the weight comes back faster and each time we regain the weight, we gain back more than before. As a result, not only are we not losing weight, we are getting progressively more obese. This is a result of dieting and the metabolic damage that it causes. The diets have made us fat. These 'temporary solutions' have definitely had a permanent effect on our bodies and metabolisms, but not the one we wanted.
As a result of constant yo-yo dieting, we cause long term (and sometimes permanent) harm to our metabolism. The more you restrict your calorie intake, the slower your metabolism becomes. Your body triggers you to eat more because it's recognizing that it's not getting enough fuel to sustain it as it is. So not only do you become tired and lethargic, you are hungry all the time. This is your body lowering your energy level to conserve the fuel (body fat) that it has and it's telling you that the tank is running dry, so eat something, buddy! This is why people find dieting so hard: you are starving your body, but in a diet battle between you and your body, the body wins every time! Even if you do lose weight, the reason you gain back faster is because your body is used to functioning at the lower metabolic level, so even if you go back to eating what you used to eat, say 2000 calories, your body is still functioning at the 1200 calorie level you were at on your diet. As far as your body is concerned, you are eating 800 calories above what it takes to maintain your current body, so you gain weight. That means the next time you diet, eating 1200 calories is going to keep you right where you are, so now you need to lower your calories to 1000 or lower. This is how people end up gaining weight on 1000 calorie diets. [FYI: fasting is not the same as dieting. Fasting has beneficial qualities and does not cause the same kind of metabolic damage.]
So how can we lose weight without tanking our metabolism and spending the rest of our lives eating rice cakes and plain tuna? We change our lifestyle instead of dieting. Changing your lifestyle starts with changing what you are eating rather than how much you are eating. Yes, you will have to eat less than what your body needs in order to burn fat, but your body was originally programmed to burn the excess body fat when necessary. That's why the fat gets stored to start with! But we have been really bad care-takers of our bodies and we have jacked up the wiring (to use the technical terminology) and so now our body is used to periods of extreme deprivation aka dieting and so it hangs onto as much fat reserves as it can because it doesn't know how long this extreme deprivation will last. What we need to do is feed it enough good nutrition so that it starts letting go of some of the fat reserves because not only is it getting enough to survive, it's getting a lot of really good stuff that allows it to function at a higher level. Personally, I think it's a little ironic that most people who will go out of their way to feed their pets the best food and treats and make sure they get enough exercise won't do the same thing with their own bodies. I confess to doing this myself: I made sure my pets had high quality food while I was eating Jack in the Box. My first clue should have been when My Yorkie refused to eat the McDonald's burger patty I offered him (and he was not the picky eater I have now!) Some people use a technique called 'reverse-dieting' to repair metabolic damage. I am not sure how this works, or if it is effective. (Metabolic Radio did a podcast on it if you want to find out more.)
For myself, I began by viewing this as a lifestyle change, not a diet. I decided- before I started- that whatever eating plan I was going to follow was going to be a life-long plan and not something temporary. The changes I made were going to be permanent, so that did two things for my mindset: 1) there was no expectation of 'this is only until [insert goal here]; and 2) there was no pressure to hurry. Since I intended to do this for the rest of my life, it didn't matter if I made 6 changes in one week (NOT a good idea) or if I made one change a month (much more doable). It also gave me a little more freedom to experiment: if I tried eating more kale instead of something like rice, there was no penalty if the kale didn't work for me (FYI: I discovered I really really hate kale!) So nix the kale, stick with broccoli! No harm, no foul! Since this is a lifestyle, there is no 'doing it wrong' unless I am forcing myself to eat the kale (or something else I don't like) because it is 'the healthy choice.' Being healthy doesn't mean that we are miserable. I really think this is part of the dieting mentality: we feel like we are making sacrifices to gain the weight loss prize, so we put up with the suffering but as soon as we get the prize (or close to it), we stop torturing ourselves and go back to eating what we like. This is pretty much how a diet works: no sugar, no chips, nothing that we like until we lose X lbs, and then- relief!! No more kale, rice cakes or dried out chicken breast!……..and the weight comes back!
This is the difference between a lifestyle and a diet: because I am making permanent changes, my focus is on eating things that I enjoy, that are healthy for me and that don't leave me starving. My criteria isn't the calorie count, but the nutritional value. If it's a whole food I like with good nutritional value, ie strawberries, broccoli, or sweet potatoes, I eat as much of it as I like. Portion control at the beginning was a bit of a struggle, but after a while, I got used to eating normal sized portions mainly because whole foods are more filling than processed stuff and the body takes longer to digest them. So instead of feeling bloated and sluggish after dinner, I feel pretty good. That's because dinner used to be a sourdough jack, fries, jalapeno poppers, diet soda and maybe cheesecake. Now dinner is a lamb shoulder chop, sweet potato fries and strawberries. Not only do I feel a whole lot better, it tastes a whole lot better too. I am also not hungry all the time, either. Eating processed foods used to make me feel like a blob right after eating them, then I'd be hungry and tired in a couple of hours or so. My energy level was always either 'okay' or 'about to fall asleep.' Now my energy level is pretty even throughout the day and at the end of the day, I am hungry for dinner, but I'm not starving. If I have to run a few errands before I get home and make dinner, I'm still okay.
Although my goal was- and still is- losing weight, my focus isn't on eating low calorie foods that I don't like and don't make me feel good just so I can lose more weight faster. I don't want to be thinner and miserable any more than I wanted to be fat and miserable. I want to feel good no matter what my weight is. For me, this is the most important difference between a diet and a lifestyle: I want to enjoy my food and my life for the rest of my life; I don't want to be miserable for a few weeks so I can be thinner for a few more weeks until the weight comes back. Tried it and frankly, it sucked! Once I decided to make being healthier a lifestyle, I have been losing weight for the last two and a half years and I have been enjoying myself doing it. It's not a hassle; there's no drudgery involved and there's no fear of gaining the weight back. There is also no deprivation involved: if I want to eat popcorn, cake and frappacinos, I have them. I make a point not to have them a lot, not because they're 'fattening,' but they don't really taste great anymore and sometimes they give me a rocketing sugar high followed by the accompanying blood sugar plummet. I stress way less about my weight and health now than I have since I was ten years old and never thought about it at all. Instead of scrutinizing everything I eat, I eat what I like, because now I know that what I like is good for me. This is the second most important difference between a diet and a lifestyle. The most important difference is that a lifestyle actually works for a lifetime.
