On February 10 , 1986 , the courts turned down the appeals of three men sentenced to hang . The men now face , on commutation of sentence by the (Free State) government , 40 years in prison without remission , for their involvement in the Drumree robbery and killing .
By GENE KERRIGAN.
First published in ' MAGILL' magazine , March 1986 .
Noel McCabe spent six weeks in solitary confinement in Portlaoise Prison , as a protective measure . In the course of the subsequent trial , in February and March 1985 , he pleaded guilty to robbery and received a 10-year sentence , suspended - there was uproar in the public gallery of the Special Criminal Court and a man named Eoin McKenna , from Darndale , Dublin , shouted at McCabe - " McCabe , you are a supergrass , the first Free State supergrass ! " McKenna was ordered to apologise to the court ; he refused and was immediately sentenced to 12 months for contempt of court .
The accusation of 'supergrass' was silly ; Noel McCabe made his statement on August 29 ; Seamus Lynch and Joe Gargan made statements on August 15 ; Paddy Duffy made a statement on August 22 , Tommy Eccles on August 23 . The only person named in McCabe's statement who was subsequently convicted and who had not himself made a statement by that time was Pat McPhillips .
It suited the gardai and the courts to portray the affair as a well-planned and professionally executed robbery ; the Provos have their own macho reasons for believing in their own professionalism . The evidence is that the Drumree raid was poorly organised , dependent on amateurs , panicky in its execution and counter-productive in its political effects . And they got no money . The net effect was the death of a 25 year-old garda .
Tommy Eccles , Brian McShane and Pat McPhillips pleaded not guilty to capital murder and claimed their statements were untrue and involuntary . The statements were declared admissible and the three were found guilty of capital murder and sentenced to death . Their appeal was dismissed on February 10 and , on February 21 , their sentences were commuted to forty years without remission .......
The Democratic Unionist Party would prefer a Civil War to acquiescence in a role for the Dublin Government in the affairs of the North of Ireland after the Anglo-Irish summit .
FINTAN O'TOOLE spoke to DUP activists about the depth of their opposition to the Anglo-Irish deal and their willingness to resort to violence .
From 'MAGILL' magazine , November 1985 .
Jim Wells joined the DUP " ... because I like my politics cut and dried . If I'm in a party which favours the use of punishment for terrorists , I don't want to find , as you find in the Official Unionist Party , that half the party does'nt agree with that policy . I like to know exactly where I stand . "
Where Jim Wells stands is with the planter stock he came from . He believes in a separate Protestant race in the North of Ireland and in preserving the purity of that race : " I'm descended from settlers who came over from England and Scotland - my mother's side was Scottish and my father's side was English . There has been no intermarriage with Celts in the four centuries that we have been over here . There's been no intermarriage in any section of the family over those centuries . And that's the same for many Protestant families .
So we are direct descendants of mainland (sic) British residents , who carry British passports , who regard the Queen (..the 'Queen' of England , that is .. ) as their sovereign , and regard parliament as the sovereign body of this province , who regard themselves as an integral part of the United Kingdom , no different from Scotland or Wales . It's a fact , not something to be debated about . We don't feel British , we are British . That is what Southern people cannot grasp .
They believe that because we live on the island of Ireland that we regard ourselves as Irish . Nothing could be further from the truth . I think we regard ourselves as more British than the British . I think we're the first to stand for the (British) National Anthem and to show respect for the (British) Queen , even more so than many mainland (sic) British subjects , many of whom have intermarried with Pakistanis and West Indians and allowed a dilution of their Britishness . That has'nt happened here and we remain militant British subjects .
Here there has been very little intermarriage with immigrants or with native Irish , and mixed marriage is frowned upon . I only know of one mixed marriage . We at least have maintained our Britishness , even if other parts (sic) of Britain have wavered somewhat ....... "
McFARLANE - THE INSIDE STORY .......
Last month , BRENDAN McFARLANE was ordered by a Dutch court to be extradited back to the North to serve out a sentence of 25 years . He is appealing the decision . His companion GERARD KELLY had his plea accepted that his offences were political . BRENDAN McFARLANE has been on the run since he led thirty-seven men in an escape out of the MAZE PRISON in September 1983 . In an exclusive interview with MAGILL at Bylmerbages Prison in Amsterdam , McFARLANE talks about his life , his youth and upbringing , and his involvement with the ARMED STRUGGLE in the North .
By DEREK DUNNE .
First published in 'MAGILL' magazine , April 1986 .
Brendan McFarlane is unassuming about the almost legendary status he has achieved among his fellow Provisionals ; he has no illusions about his own part in the scheme of things - he jokes easily too . For example , when asked if he "specialised" in any particular area of activity when he was on the streets and active between 1972 and 1975 , before answering " No , " he says , " Yes . I could talk the leg off a dresser . The Provos were going to send me in as a secret weapon to talk the Brits to sleep . "
Brendan McFarlane does not conform to the typical profile of a Provisional ; he is extremely articulate and does not come from a republican background . Born in 1951 in Ardoyne in Belfast , he attended Holy Cross Primary School and Saint Malachy's College . His father worked in Michelin's tyre firm in the city ; his family , especially his mother , were staunch Catholics , and even though they came from a republican area , they did not subscribe to that ethos . He was bright at school . His friends nicknamed him 'Bic' and the name has stuck ever since . (The name came from McFarlane's biscuits.)
In 1968 , he decided to enter the priesthood and joined the SVD Missionary Order ; he went to study in North Wales and returned home for holidays - " I was always pretty religious and I believed I had a vocation at the time , " he says . He came home in the summer of 1969 and Ardoyne was attacked by loyalist mobs ; he returned to the seminary . There was " ...a continuous question and answer session going on in my head . " He quit and returned home the following year .
" I know now I was right I did'nt continue . I still don't know why . I thought about it often when I was in H-Blocks but I still can't answer that . " He says he missed completely the "...upheaval in the Republican Movement .." when the Provos split from the Officials ; he had many friends in both wings and did'nt know which one to join . Ardoyne was a particularly vulnerable area , being bordered on all sides by loyalist strongholds .......

Research: Lack of diversification among employee stock owners: An empirical evaluation of behavioural explanations
Employee share ownership is widely viewed as good HR practice. But can they be too much of a good thing? This paper, by Andrew Pendleton of Durham University Business School and Andrew Robinson of Leeds University Business School, tackles the question of why some employees hold large amounts of shares in their employer.
The research uses data collected from a survey of participants in the UK Save As You Earn share plan conducted in 2015 in collaboration with YBS Share Plans, part of Yorkshire Building Society.
Key findings:
- 22 per cent hold 50 per cent or more of their savings (by value) in company shares.
- 10 per cent hold 75 per cent or more of their savings in company shares. The average value of these holdings was just over £18,000.
- 19 per cent of these groups are not members of their company pension scheme, and 14–15 per cent had no pension provision at all at the time of the survey.
- Overall, the study shows the importance of sentiment and inaction rather than rational investment calculation.

Over the past couple of years, our good friend Leonardo Gonnelli has delivered a series of massive tech house bombs on Deeperfect. So it is with great pleasure that we welcome him back once again with a club destroying single ready to rock the dancefloors this spring. 'He Does Do It' opens heavy with Leonardo's signature drum programming and characteristic funk vocal after which he winds up the pressure as the track steadily builds. He brings in a funky vocal cut and pulsing sub bass before the break, where we are greeted with energetic rave stabs and a rush of effects that crescendo through the drop. Fans of Leonardo's past releases on the label will be more than happy with this beast of a record and are bound to rock it on repeat until the sun comes up. We totally feel the same way, we can't get enough of it either!

Chinese artist Ai Weiwei is one of the biggest stars in the world of contemporary art. He is known for his sculptures, installations, architecture, photography, but also as a political and social critic of the Chinese political elite. His open and public criticism of the Chinese Government's stance on democracy and human rights has brought him a lot of trouble in the past with the authorities and most recently, in 2011, Ai has been arrested at Beijing Capital International Airport and held in prison for 81 days without any official charges being filed. However, the detention didn't stop Ai Weiwei from being outspoken. In the US, he was the subject of the travelling retrospective "Ai Weiwei: According to What?" which wound up its tour at the Brooklyn Museum last month, and in Brooklyn, the artist added a new work "S.A.C.R.E.D.", originally created for the 2013 Venice Biennale.
The "S.A.C.R.E.D." installation was a realistic display of the life in prison. Ai created six dioramas realistically depicting him in his jail cell as he ate, slept, paced, showered, went to the bathroom, and sat for interrogation, all under the constant watch of two uniformed guards. The method designed with the aim of breaking the prisoner's spirit has made Ai address this issue and to present it to a wider audience beyond Chinese borders. With the help of San Francisco dealer Cheryl Haines and her For-Site Foundation Ai Weiwei has taking the "S.A.C.R.E.D." idea to create a show in an actual prison.
The location where Ai will send his seven site-specific installations is San Francisco's Alcatraz Island. Planned premises of the former federal penitentiary include generally off-limits areas as the hospital, dining hall and cell block A. In addressing the themes of the exhibition entitled "@Large: Ai Weiwei on Alcatraz". Not giving up his passion for fighting against suffocating human rights and freedom of expression, Ai Weiwei once again addresses the theme of the exhibition saying, "The misconception of totalitarianism is that freedom can be imprisoned. This is not the case. When you constrain freedom, freedom will take flight and land on a windowsill."
Although Ai Weiwei won't be able to visit San Francisco because Chinese authorities are holding his passport, he relies on Cheryl Haines to execute the project in his name. On the view from September 27, "@Large: Ai Weiwei on Alcatraz" will provoke visitors to consider the broader social implications of incarceration and the possibilities of art as an act of conscience. Tickets for the event happening at the Alcatraz Island are on sale. The exhibition will be running through April 26, 2015.

United Airlines Suspends Program That Allows Pets to Travel with Cargo-blogged by @thereal__bee ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ United Airlines announced Tuesday that they will no longer be accepting new travel reservations through its PetSafe program. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ Petsafe is the program that the airline utilized to book travel for pets that needed to travel with cargo, for reasons such as being over 20 pounds. The announcement comes after multiple incidents involving animals on United planes, two of which occurred with pets traveling through the PetSafe program. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ In the statement announcing the news, United said it has suspended the program to perform a "thorough and systematic review of our program for pets that travel in the cargo compartment to make improvements that will ensure the best possible experience for our customers and their pets." ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ The review is expected to be completed by May 1 of this year. Until the review is complete, PetSafe will not take new reservations, leaving owners to search for other options when it comes to their future travel plans. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ "We will honor any existing PetSafe reservations confirmed as of March 20, 2018, although we will assist any customer that wishes to cancel their reservation. In the meantime, we are proactively reaching out to customers with confirmed reservations between today and May 1 to inform them of this announcement and explain what this means for their travel," United wrote in the announcement. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ Fortunately, the suspension does not affect owners traveling with pets in-cabin, even though United is also looking to make some changes to the pet policy following the death of Kokito, a French bulldog who died after being put in the overhead bin. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ "To prevent this from happening again, by April we will issue bright colored bag tags to customers traveling with in-cabin pets. This visual tag will further help our flight attendants identify pets in-cabin," United spokesperson Maggie Schmerin said in a statement to PEOPLE.

Police are on the hunt for an SUV that was involved in a hit and run on Oct. 11 at approximately 7 p.m. in the Massachusetts town of Middleboro. The SUV hit a 58-year-old bicycle rider, killing him, and then fled the scene. The roadway surrounding the scene of the car accident was closed for nearly four hours as the evidence was gathered from the site.
Police are asking any residents who live on that stretch of the road and may have security cameras to review their footage. A witness apparently told police that the bicycle rider was moving with the flow of traffic when a light colored SUV slammed into him. It is the hope of law enforcement that a more accurate description of the SUV can be obtained as the investigation moves forward.
The vehicle in question would most likely have damage to the front end and windshield. Authorities are asking anyone who either has information regarding the crash or the SUV to contact the detective division of the Middleboro Police Department. Hopefully, the vehicle and its driver can be located quickly.
The family of the victim deserves to know exactly what happened that resulted in the death of their loved one. Not only do they need some sense of peace in knowing that the person responsible for his death may be brought to justice, but they are also entitled to a Massachusetts wrongful death claim against that party as well. If they are able to prove negligence on the part of the SUV driver, they may be awarded monetary damages to help address the financial impact of this hit-and-run car accident.

At the December 2018 Buenos Aires G-20 summit, Russian President Vladimir Putin met with Japanese PM Shinzo Abe and the two apparently decided to accelerate talks on the territorial dispute between the two countries in the hope of reaching an agreement that will allow them to sign a peace treaty formally ending World War II between them. Japan has hitherto refused to sign such a treaty pending the restoration of the Kurils.
Russian President Vladimir Putin and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe will hold talks in Moscow on January 22. Ahead of the meeting, Abe told reporters that he hopes that his talks with Putin will be "frank" and will allow Japan and Russia to advance peace treaty negotiations, in order to end the dispute over the islands' sovereignty.[1] In contrast, statements by Russian officials on the peace treaty are dominated by cautiousness and warnings against rushing the process.
Meanwhile, on January 20, hundreds of Russians protested in Moscow against a feared giveaway of the islands.[2] Earlier, on the island of Sakhalin, a demonstration of one hundred people took place on December 15 with a similar meeting scheduled for December 22, to protest the possibility of Russia's transferring parts of the Kuril Islands to Japan. The demonstrators held banners stating "They lost Alaska and now the Kurils" and "selling Alaska is a national betrayal". The demonstrators also held portraits of those who fought for the USSR to gain the Kurils.[3]
One of Russia's foremost Japan experts, Dmitry Streltsov, opined, in an article published by the Valdai Club that negotiations between Japan and Russia on the four South Kuril Islands are still unpredictable. According to Streltsov, the first "stumbling block" is the non-deployment of US military bases on the islands if they are transferred to Japan.
Moreover, Streltsov argues that Moscow could try to drag out the negotiations so as to evade fulfilling its obligations under Article 9, putting forward "unacceptable conditions" for Japan, as the withdrawal of all US military bases from Japan. However, according to Streltsov, such demands would lead to a Cold War state.
Streltsov concluded by stating that the cooling in Russian-Japanese relations would be negative for Russia, and the only beneficiary would be China. "Moscow's diplomatic and economic dependence on Beijing would inevitably increase, and room for diplomatic maneuvering in Asia would be diminished," Streltsov wrote.
Below is Streltsov's article:[4]

Russian Officials Warn Against Rushing The Process
"Оn January 22, 2019, Russian President Vladimir Putin and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe will hold talks in Moscow. 'There are plans for discussing the current condition of and prospects for developing bilateral cooperation in the political, trading, economic and humanitarian spheres,' the Kremlin press-service said.
"After Vladimir Putin and Shinzo Abe agreed in November 2018 to speed up peace treaty negotiations, there was some movement in the parties' positions. On the Japanese side, there was a substantial softening of its previously unchanged policy to 'return' the four South Kuril Islands, indicating Japan's intention to find a compromise to the ill-fated border issue. Many began to describe Tokyo's stance as the 'two plus alpha' formula, where 'alpha' could be some economic privileges for the Japanese in the Russian South Kuril Islands, such as exclusive rights to conduct joint economic activity or visa-free visits, rather than transferring the two remaining islands, after handing over Habomai and Shikotan to Japan.
"Notably, the 'illegal occupation' by the northern neighbor of 'original Japanese territories' approach is completely missing from Tokyo's official lexicon. The Japanese Prime Minister's Special Advisor for Foreign Affairs Katsuyuki Kawai rushed over to Washington for consultations, where he met with high-ranking White House representatives and, apparently, encountered no objections from the American side. Abe himself, in his public statements, began to present the Japanese vision of the substance of the issue, proposing the parties' mutual refusal of any compensation and noting the need to obtain 'consent' from the residents of the islands being transferred to Japan. These revelations by the Japanese prime minister, which were not coordinated with the Russian side, and therefore violated the principle of confidentiality, caused discontent in Moscow. The Japanese ambassador was even summoned to the Russian Foreign Ministry to hear an official protest.
"However, the fact remains: judging by Japan's current rhetoric on the planned peace treaty with Russia full of specific details of the deal, Japan is in a high degree of readiness to sign a peace treaty based on the 1956 Declaration.
"The situation looks different from Moscow's perspective. Statements by Russian officials are dominated by cautious and expectant rhetoric and include warnings against rushing the process. While government representatives generally prefer avoiding the issue of border demarcation, all sorts of politicians, both from parliamentary parties and non-parliamentary opposition, show unprecedented unanimity on this matter, and are determined not to concede 'an inch of native land.' Indicatively, on January 10, LDPR representative submitted a draft law to the State Duma that would qualify any border demarcation options involving the transfer of any territories to Japan as illegal. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov declared that Japan must first recognize the outcome of World War II, the obvious implication being the recognition of the legitimacy of the annexation of the Kuril Islands by the Soviet Union in 1945.
"What is the reason for this demand and is there any chance it will be met? Japan clearly sees the Kuril Islands, as well as South Sakhalin, as territories with uncertain legal status and therefore shows them on their maps in white. Tokyo's position is that the territories that Japan owned before the war cannot be recognized as Russia's until a border agreement is signed with it. In practical terms, this does not mean that Japan has any claims on the Kuriles (with the exception of the four southern islands) or South Sakhalin: otherwise, the situation where a Japanese Consulate General has been lawfully operating in Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk for many years would be seen as absurd.
"It is more important that Moscow is demanding that Tokyo recognize the legitimacy of Russian sovereignty over the notorious 'northern territories' - the four South Kuril Islands. From Russia's perspective, if the parties, pursuant to Article 9 of the 1956 Joint Declaration, agree to transfer Habomai and Shikotan to Japan, Japan should realize that Russia can only fulfill this requirement if it owns the islands legally and acts out of free will, as stated in the declaration.
"However, in Japan's view, since the four islands were assigned to Japan under the first Russian-Japanese treaty of 1855, they have a different political status than the other Kuriles, and therefore do not fit into the concept of the Kuril Islands which Japan gave up under Article 2 (c) of the 1951 San Francisco Peace Treaty. This position was referred to, in particular, by Japanese Prime Minister Hayato Ikeda, who said at the budget commission of the lower house of parliament on October 3, 1961, that Japan officially includes only the Urup Island and the farther northern islands of the Kuril Ridge in the concept of the Kuril Islands.
"In this sense, it appears difficult for Japan to recognize Russia's demand in the section concerning the 'northern territories' because this would make its territorial claims pointless: how can anyone require their partner to return what legally belongs to them already? As for the other outcomes of World War II, the parties have no disagreements: any mutual claims were removed by the 1956 Declaration."
(Source: Nationalpost.com)
If Russia Will Drag Out Negotiation It Will Lead To A Cold War State.
"All this considered, prospects for implementing the part of the declaration on the border demarcation are unpredictable. The situation is also complicated by the lack of consensus on two points.
"The first stumbling block is the non-deployment of US military bases on the islands if they are transferred to Japan. Bearing in mind that Tokyo's refusal to give any non-deployment guarantees in November 2016 caused a hitch in negotiations, Shinzo Abe assured that Japan would not allow the US military on the islands. US General Jerry Martinez has confirmed that the US has no plans to establish a military presence on the islands. Nevertheless, there is still a strong opinion in Moscow that Japan, with its strong foreign policy and military dependence on the United States, cannot be fully trusted. Tokyo's inability to provide full non-deployment guarantees becomes an additional negotiating argument for Moscow to justify its uncompromising attitude toward handing over the islands.
"The second issue is the actual transfer of the islands. In December 2016, Vladimir Putin said the declaration does not specify whether the transfer of the islands to Japan implies the transfer of sovereignty. However, it must be realized that Japan would most likely see a transfer that excludes Russia's releasing sovereignty over the islands as grounds to suspend the negotiations, which would inevitably lead to a breakdown.
"Theoretically, Moscow could try to drag out the negotiations so as to evade fulfilling its obligations under Article 9[5], putting forward unacceptable conditions for Japan – for example, withdrawal of all US military bases from Japan (a similar requirement, made in a statement by the Soviet government in January 1960, froze Russian-Japanese political relations for decades) or the recognition of Russian sovereignty over Crimea. However, it should be understood that such demands would quickly lead to the breakdown of negotiations and return our relations to a Cold War state.
"Under the current conditions, Moscow's non-recognition of the 1956 Declaration's efficacy appears unproductive. The process of developing a compromise based on this document has gone far enough into a dead end in the public field. Moreover, during Vladimir Putin's presidency, Russia has always recognized its international legal obligations under this document, and a unilateral withdrawal, whatever the rationale, would strongly affect the prestige of Russia and the Russian President. It should be borne in mind that any Japanese Prime Minister after Abe would not remain just neutral, but actually hostile towards Russia after that. Russia's unilateral refusal to comply with the 1956 Declaration would go down in Japanese history textbooks as a hostile step of the same kind as the breakdown of the neutrality pact in 1945 and the retention of 600,000 Japanese prisoners of war in Soviet captivity.
"It is true that Moscow could simply ignore this fact: Japan is not its main economic partner; it supports anti-Russia sanctions and in any case would not change its foreign policy orientation towards America. It is also clear that a settlement of the border issue will not cause a windfall of Japanese investment, so the 'island in exchange for investment' formula would definitely not work.
"Still, the move could have a negative consequence for Russia; that would be having a hostile state next door, while China would be the main beneficiary of a cooling in Russian-Japanese relations. Moscow's diplomatic and economic dependence on Beijing would inevitably increase, and room for diplomatic maneuvering in Asia would be diminished. Strengthening the bloc confrontation in the security architecture of East Asia would lead to a new tightening of international tensions and an increased threat of armed conflict on our Far Eastern borders.
"Russia being part of an anti-Japanese coalition on China's side would certainly not meet Russia's national interests. At the same time, it would be good to remember that Beijing holds a frankly pro-Japanese position on the South Kuriles, recognizing them as Japanese territory including coloring them on their maps as Japanese.
The signing of a peace treaty and the further transfer of the islands to Japan is undoubtedly an extremely painful step for Moscow, which definitely will not find much public support and will not add to the popularity of the Russian President. Yet, something else is perfectly clear: the full normalization of political relations with Japan would significantly enhance Russia's security and the stability of its borders. By signing a peace treaty with Japan, Russia would put an end not just to a border dispute, but also to the history of World War II, ending the post-war settlement era. Furthermore, Russia would strengthen its international prestige as a country that unconditionally fulfills its international legal obligations. Undoubtedly, this would be a serious diplomatic step, its significance reaching far beyond the framework of bilateral relations with Japan."

Back to the Present: Achieving Mindfulness
Updated: Jan 28, 2018
Back to the Present: Achieving Mindfulness
I used to think of mindfulness as something that just came with meditation, that mindfulness was a technique, a trick that needed to be practised and perfected, something that took ages to learn. Meditation is already something I do on a regular basis, but is mindfulness really only restricted to those 30 peaceful minutes?
The more I thought about it, the more aware I was of how we all practise parts of mindfulness; we do it every day, without even thinking about it.
A big part of being mindful is learning how to be present in the moment.
Being fully aware of what's going on right now. Not worrying about things that happened in the past, or planning for the future. Just letting those thoughts pass through you, not giving any attention or acknowledgement to anything that isn't happening this exact second.
So, couldn't this be achieved just by having a hobby?
Think back to the last time you were concentrating on something you really enjoy doing. It could be stamp collecting, reading a book, or even playing video games. What went through your mind, were you thinking about anything other than what you were doing at that exact moment?
For me, it's the gym. When I'm lifting weights I don't care about the past or its events. I'm not thinking about that mistake I made last week, or worrying about an upcoming deadline at work.
I'm just fully aware in the present. I'm concentrating on one thing.
Making sure the weight I'm holding doesn't squash me.
I'm paying attention my body. How it feels when I make the lift, where it hurts, what parts of me ache, which parts of me should be moving and which shouldn't.
This is mindfulness
Ok, so the gym might seem like an odd place to be mindful. It's always said that mindfulness comes from relaxation. Achieving mindfulness in a place where aggression, testosterone, and sweat fill the air is something that may seem impossible. But in these 90 minutes my mind is doing nothing else but being present in the moment.
So if you're trying to be mindful, a good place to start is finding a hobby. Something to really occupy your mind for an hour or so a day.
If you're stuck for ideas, then I highly recommend exercise!

Maneesh Sharma is an Indian film director, screenwriter and producer. He made his debut with the sleeper hit Band Baaja Baaraat (2010) which won him the Filmfare Award for Best Debut Director. He garnered more success with the 2013 comedy-drama Shuddh Desi Romance and the 2016 thriller Fan. He also produced the 2015 drama Dum Laga Ke Haisha which won him the National Film Award for Best Feature Film in Hindi.
Born and raised in Delhi, where he lived in various parts of the city, including Pitam Pura. Maneesh did his schooling at Delhi Public School, R K Puram. Then he received a degree in English literature from Hans Raj College, Delhi University. At college, he was involved in the theatre society and shot his debut film in 2010 there. After his graduation he moved to California to study filmmaking at CalArts. Before moving to Mumbai, he was also involved in theatre in Delhi and was a dancer in a local musical troupe.
While studying filmmaking at CalArts, Maneesh worked as an associate director on Trona (2004), an English-German student film shot in Los Angeles.
Two months after his return from the US, he got a break and started his Bollywood career as an associate director and an assistant director on a number of Yash Raj Films productions such as Fanaa, Aaja Nachle and Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi, before making his feature directing debut with Band Baaja Baaraat (English title: Bands Horns and Revelry), based on a story written by himself, which was released on 10 December 2010. The film starred newcomer Ranveer Singh and Anushka Sharma in the lead roles, and was produced by Aditya Chopra under the Yash Raj Films banner. Sharma's first outing as a director garnered him India's prestigious Filmfare Award in the Best Debut Director category.
His next film, Ladies vs Ricky Bahl, was produced by Aditya Chopra and released on 9 December 2011. The critically acclaimed film starred Ranveer Singh and Anushka Sharma, who were also in Sharma's first film. Sharma's third film, Shuddh Desi Romance (English title: A Purely Desi Romance), released on 6 September 2013, and starred Sushant Singh Rajput, Parineeti Chopra, and newcomer Vaani Kapoor in the lead roles. The film was screened in the Gala Presentation section of the 2013 Toronto International Film Festival.
Maneesh Sharma's fourth film is Dum Laga Ke Haisha under the YRF Banner. Yash Raj Films has always had either Yash Chopra or Aditya Chopra produce movies under the banner, but Sharma is first independent producer. The film is directed by Sharat Katariya, and stars Ayushmann Khurrana. His next directorial venture is movie Fan, with lead star Shah Rukh Khan. Sharma's second production is Akshay Roy's debut film Meri Pyaari Bindu starring Parineeti Chopra and Ayushmann Khurrana.

NEW YORK: Porter Novelli has launched a content-creation and brand-publishing service called PNConnect to help clients tell stories across earned, owned, and paid media.
Digital teams at Porter and subsidiary agency Voce Communications collaborated to develop PNConnect. Rich Cline, senior partner and digital practice leader at Porter, is managing the group. The Omnicom agency acquired Voce in February 2011.
Cline said the idea for PNConnect came from the firms' "comprehensive approach to digital."
He explained that agencies should have developers on staff that can create web platforms, applications, and other products, and then layer them within social media consulting, content creation, and traditional communications efforts. With PNConnect, the agency can help clients develop and publish content on platforms created by the team. It will also help the firm push out content for brands at strategic times to boost engagement levels with stakeholders and target audiences.
Cline said PNConnect publishes 500 to 1,000 pieces of content a day for brands across various channels. He said the firm cannot disclose the exact number of staffers working on the offering, but it includes employees in each Porter office. Cline added that the firm is seeking talent in the "premium content" space because the trend of brands becoming their own publishers is growing.
Porter has introduced PNConnect in offices around the world over the last 18 months, but it is revealing the service externally now that digital capabilities are in place.
Other large agencies have debuted or bolstered content-creation offerings in the past year. Last month, Weber Shandwick launched a creative services offering called GoLive that works to showcase client content through live storytelling, social distribution, and digital broadcast production. GoLive is part of Mediaco, Weber's content-creation and distribution unit that launched in March.
Hill+Knowlton Strategies acquired digital consultancy Group SJR last month in an effort to expand its offerings in digital and content creation. Group SJR will maintain its brand and operate as an independent company owned by H+K.

Zhougong's Dream Dictionary
In the Chinese culture, dream is linked with a virtual person called Zhougong after a popular book Zhougong's Dream Dictionary (周公解梦) which has been passed down from thousands of years ago. The book categorizes seven types of dream that people usually have during sleeping. With thousand of years' history, Zhougong's Dream Dictionary (周公解梦) has been popular in China as well as in the Chinese communities for its excellence in explaining different dreams, in particular those unusual and weird. While some believe that the book shows people's superstition, others believe that the objects or scenes that show up in our dream have close relationship with what have happened within our body (e.g. health status), in daily life, or mental status.

Demographics of Child Abuse
Synthesis Paper: The Child Abuse Crisis: The Disintegration of Marriage, Family, and the American Community
A survey of the professional literature shows that the three main types of abuse most commonly researched are physical abuse and, to a lesser extent, neglect and the trauma of children who have witnessed violence against their parents.1) According to the professional literature, child abuse in the United States exhibits definite demographic patterns:
- The safest family environment for a child is a home in which the biological parents are married. Recent research demonstrates that marriage provides a safe environment for all family members, one in which child abuse and fatality are lowered dramatically.2))
- Cohabitation, an increasingly common phenomenon, is a major factor in child abuse. Cohabitation implies a lack of commitment. The evidence suggests that a lack of commitment between biological parents is dangerous for children, and that a lack of commitment between mother and boyfriend is exceedingly so. The risk of child abuse is 4 times higher than in traditional married families if parents are cohabiting (as in "common law" marriages) and 11 times higher if the single mother is cohabiting with a boyfriend.3)
- The incidence of child abuse decreases significantly as family income increases. In 2006, the overall rate of maltreatment (abuse and neglect combined) in the United States was lowest in families with incomes above $15,000 per year and more than 5 times higher in families with incomes below $15,000 per year.4)
- Child abuse frequently is intergenerational. Another generation of child abusers is being weaned by today's abusing parents, and many of these children will never know that children can be treated differently.
- Child abuse is prevalent in "communities of abuse" characterized by family breakdown. These are disadvantaged communities, characterized by the absence of marriage, little education, and dependence on welfare.5) From these communities come society's "superpredators" (the psychopathic criminals of tomorrow), violent gang members, and other hostile, depressed, and frequently even suicidal young people.6)
- Child abuse is directly associated with serious violent crime. An increase in the incidence of child abuse precedes an increase in violent crime.
Although a home with biological parents who are married cannot guarantee that a child will be safe and happy, the evidence suggests that it represents the safest of all environments for children; at the same time–and in sharp contrast–the evidence also suggests that a home with adults who decide not to marry and to live together out of wedlock represents the most dangerous environment of all for children.

Cox 18 presenta: PIGS + SOFY MAJOR
When Unsane bassist Dave Curran started writing songs on guitar with drummer Jim Paradise (Player's Club, Freshkills, Hellno) the name they tossed out for their fledgling project was simple: PIGS. "We figured it was short enough that press and promoters couldn't fuck it up." Producer Andrew Schneider (Cave In, Converge, Made Out of Babies, Unsane, Keelhaul) was invited to fill-in on bass for a couple of shows and, much to their delight, has refused to leave.
The sound? PIGS sound like the last forty-five minutes of that interminable haul from Portland to San Francisco when both patience and air conditioning are long gone; like a petty, early-morning drunken argument in a gravel parking lot about the stupid, impossible math of how to divide forty-one dollars three ways; like when the left rear bearing on the van that's been squealing and then grinding for days finally gets hot enough to weld itself into the axle and the ancient Detroit Deathtrap grates to a final, shuddering halt. Pigs sound like three guys who have played countless shows in many bands for a couple of decades in several dozen countries and still can't leave it alone.

'Catastrophic' Failure at Brooklyn Con Ed Spills 37,000 Gallons of Transformer Oil
A U.S. Coast Guard said that "catastrophic transformer failure" at a Con Edison station in downtown Brooklyn, New York caused 37,000 gallons of dielectric fluid, or transformer insulating oil, to leak onto property grounds and into the East River on Sunday.As reported by Gothamist, witnesses said the oil slick could be seen all the way in the Queens borough.
The exact amount of oil released into the river is currently unclear, but the New York City Patch reported the Coast Guard needed to declare a "safety zone" in waters around the Greenpoint, Midtown and Red Hook neighborhoods as the discharge spread into the river Monday night. The safety zone was still in effect on Tuesday.

After the successful trials of the Killen-Strait the committee decided to test two more American tractors, namely the Bullock 'Creeping Grip' machines. First they tried coupling two machines together with an articulated platform, but this proved extremely difficult to maneuver and the coupling often snapped off. After this a bizarre attempt at adding six wooden legs to a Bullock tractor was undertaken, with the feet designed to walk alongside the machine and lift it out of sticky mud and hollows. Not surprisingly, the 'Elephants Feet' idea was dropped, along with many other trial and error experiments that led us up to the invention of the tank.
Still, despite many failures during trials, it was very clear that tracks were the right tool for the job, so the tracks from the Bullock were copied onto a more suitable vehicle built by Fosters. William Tritton, who'd previously failed with his attempts to make his Trench Crosser successful, teamed up with Walter Wilson on August 11 1915 to design a new vehicle running on specially lengthened Bullock tracks – the 'Number One Lincoln Machine'. The machine had a box-like body, made from steam engine boiler plating, and was already built and running in trials by September 14th 1915, only a month after initial designs were undertaken. The powerhouse was a 105 horsepower Daimler gasoline engine, previously used in Foster tractors. It had a two-speed gearbox and worm reduction gear to the rear sprockets that drove the tracks. Tails wheels, a little like canon wheels, trailed behind as an aid to steering and cross-country handling. The Number One Lincoln Machine didn't have any weapons, however a false turret was fitted to simulate the weight distribution of a two-pounder gun.
The idea of this machine was sound, but the adapted American tracks caused a lot of problems, often coming off their rollers due to the strains of performing outside their intended use. Also the machine itself could not cross the full specified width of a First World War trench, i.e. 5 feet (1.5m) , so it was tantamount to useless as a weapon on the battlefield. However, the machine was outstanding as a prototype and led the way forward towards a functional war machine.
Wilson and Tritton soon realized that they'd have to design and make their own tracks, specifically for their machine, if they were going to get it to work properly. After a lot of experiments and failed attempts, they eventually came up with a cast-steel track plate that was riveted to hinged links with guides to engage rails on the track frames to stop the whole ensemble working loose. The original machine was rebuilt to accommodate these new tracks, with lengthened frames, so it was able to cross the War Office's specified 5 foot gap.
Wilson and Tritton named their new machine 'Little Willie'. She was the first ever purpose built, from the ground up, armored fighting vehicle with tracks – almost the first 'tank'.
Some argue, however, that though 'Little Willie' can be thought of as the first tank, or at least the first armed, armored vehicle with tracks, it is its successor, Big Willie or 'Mother' Tank, that first saw active service in battle and, therefore, it could be said that the 'Mother' tanks were indeed the first actual battle tanks. Still, Little Willie led the way and it was her track system that was used on all British tanks built during the First World War.

HANOVER, Ind. – The Hanover women's golf team will look to build off its opening weekend victory as they travel to compete at the Illinois Wesleyan Fall Classic this Saturday and Sunday, Sept. 15 and 16.
LINEUP: The Panthers will return four of their five scoring players from their team championship group at the Olivet (Mich.) Labor Day Classic. Senior Sam Pease (Cincinnati, Ohio), juniors Maddie Cody (Brownsburg, Ind.) and Allison Goodwin (Lebanon, Ind.), along with sophomore Dayna Dale (Andrews, Ind.) all return to the lineup this weekend. Sophomore Emma Kate McMurty (Terre Haute, Ind.) will round out the Panther five this weekend. McMurty appeared in two events last season and will be making her debut for the 2018-19 campaign at Illinois Wesleyan.
TOURNAMENT FIELD: A loaded field of 17 teams will grace the presence of Ironwood GC this weekend, highlighted by two-time defending champion, Washington (Mo.). The Bears were one of four teams ranked in the national top 25 preseason poll, conducted by the Women's Golf Coaches Association (WGCA). Other teams ranked in the poll that are competing this weekend are DePauw (11), Illinois Wesleyan (15) and Wisconsin-Whitewater (25). Grinnell (Iowa), another competitor this weekend, was also receiving votes in the national preseason poll. Two additional Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference institutions will be in attendance as well, including Franklin and Rose-Hulman.
THE TRACK: Tournament play will be held in Normal, Ill. at Ironwood Golf Course. Ironwood GC is a par 72 championship layout, featuring four sets of tees that range from 5,400 to 7,100 yards. The course has hosted numerous high school and collegiate events, as well as C.D.G.A. and U.S.G.A qualifiers. For more information and the course layout, click here.
LAST TIME OUT: With its home invitational getting washed out due to the weather last weekend, Hanover is making just its second appearance of the fall season. The Panthers won their only other event, taking first place at the eight-team Olivet Labor Day Classic. In unfavorable conditions, and on a longer course, the Blue and Red posted a two-day score of 676 (337-339), while also having a trio of golfers earn top 10 recognition. Goodwin and Cody placed second and third, respectively, with scores of 157 (78-79) and 164 (80-84). The 157 total strokes for Goodwin set a new career low for a 36-hole event. Dale also picked up her first career top-1- finish, recording a score of 177 (87-90).
TOURNAMENT HISTORY: The Panthers will be appearing in the IWU Fall Classic for the second straight year after adding it the schedule last fall. Hanover placed 10th out of 17 teams last season, recording a 36-hole team score of 652 (333-319). The second round total was the team's second best round, relative to par, of the 2017-18 season. Cody paced the Panthers with a 161, while Dale's Sunday 79 is still her career-best round.
UP NEXT: The Blue and Red will break for one week after the conclusion of the IWU Fall Classic and will next be in action Saturday and Sunday, Sept. 29 and 30, at the HCAC Preview. The conference preview event will be hosted by Earlham in Liberty, Ind., at Liberty Country Club, the site of the HCAC Championship later this fall.

A Warm Welcome
Have your neighbors swooning over your curb appeal with an inviting front porch featuring a cozy wood swing and a mix of patterned blue throw pillows beckoning visitors to this sunny front porch.
Go Bold
A fresh coat of paint can do wonders for a home's curb appeal. A bold color pairing, like navy blue and bubblegum pink, will ensure your home isn't lost in a sea of cookie-cutter houses.
Wood Accents
If color isn't your thing, touches of wood accents will do just the trick when boosting your home's appearance. This home seen on HGTV's Fixer Upper, features cedar details add a natural alternative when it comes to exterior accents.
Modern House Numbers
Say goodbye to ordinary house numbers. Add a modern, chic vibe to your home's exterior by upgrading to a laser-cut wooden plaque.
Well-Manicured Lawn
No matter how beautiful a new plant or house feature may be, it will never get a chance to shine if neighbors can't see past a wild, unkempt yard. By maintaining a nice, healthy lawn height, you can ensure your home will be noticed for all the right reasons.
Walk This Way
Choosing the right hardscape can be a challenge, but a simple stone or brick path is a great way to add charm to your entryway. If the inviting look isn't enough to convince you, just imagine life with no more muddy footprints or sunken heels!
Rocking Out
A pair of rocking chairs on the front porch will elicit nostalgic memories of the past, while also provide the perfect backdrop for creating new experiences.
Borderline Design
Landscape lighting illuminates this home's front showcasing all its best features- unique architecture, tidy landscaping and appealing shrubbery.
An Open Door
A front door can add a lot to a home, especially when it comes to curb appeal. Large glass panels above on this front door add an inviting and elegant touch to its exterior.
Container Garden Goodness
No space for a flower bed? No problem! Liven up your home's curb appeal with a colorful container garden. A container garden allows for an easy swap of vegetation whenever you choose.
Eye-Catching Shutters
Take a cue from your surroundings when choosing a color for your shutters. Lush greenery shrubs blend seamlessly with this home's matching green shutters and natural wood front door combo.
The Shingle Life
Multicolored shingles add interest to this Cape Cod home while also scoring big in the uniqueness category.
Flowing Out of The Box
As seen on HGTV's Home Town, the exterior of this home has cedar window boxes that coordinate beautifully with the colorful shutters, making a big statement in this small space.
Light the Way
Fun-Flare Siding
Turn heads with an out-of-the-box feature like this home's cedar siding. The natural wood siding pops against the rest of the exterior while also providing tons of texture that makes it fun to look at and easy on the eyes.
Goodbye Gravel
Gone are the days of gravel driveways. A stamped concrete driveway adds a sleek look to this craftsman-style home.
Bright Entry
Green Thumb
Vibrant flowers add life to this home's front yard. A hardy mix of plants and flowers offer an eye-catching combination of color and texture.

The Journey to Battery Stewardship
The journey to establishing a battery stewardship scheme began in 2013, with momentum shifting into higher gear in 2018 with a clear direction and the design of a draft scheme. 2019 is the time for this planning to move into the implementation phase. The scheme design is close to being finalised and once complete will form the basis of an application to the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission for scheme authorisation. The illustration below shows the pivotal activities that have occurred along the way.

Ironic Contradictions
I'm a long time reader - since way back when I was seven. That makes it over three quarters of my life that I will be a reader for. But it is worth it. When I'm not reading or wasting my time online on here or Goodreads I'll be off playing video games, studying teaching and messing around with friends and pop culture. Or reading some more.

I must state that there appears to be a particular type of novel which does not draw my fancy.
happens to be that type of novel. That said I was expecting more from what I did read.
With such a novel proclaimed as an imaginative retelling of [b:The Wonderful Wizard of Oz|236093|The Wonderful Wizard of Oz|L. Frank Baum|http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1327894516s/236093.jpg|1993810] and a popular bestseller I felt I owed it to myself to give this a try. However I find similar issues with this novel as with the second of G.R.R Martin's
A Song of Fire and Ice
novels. In other words there feels a deliberate attempt in this novel to aim to write a gritty narrative for the purpose of selling the novel, rather than merely writing a strong story. The story attempts to create a modernist version of Oz but ignores what its origins set out to achieve. Further, it sexualises the world of Oz and adds in elements which frankly make little sense in the storyline or in the context of what it states that it is doing.
In general, my conclusion from what I read of this book in skimming through is that it does not suit my taste. If one appreciates this novel then, well, that is certainly an individual choice. However I for one find it to be a little bit of a commercial gimmick, an aim to rewrite a classic story for the sake of selling novels and spreading an ideology (though I did not read enough to observe that ideology). As such I'd rather read the original tried and true classics rather than a work such as this.

Customer Service,Emotional Intelligence, and Presentation Trainer
Presentation/Professional Presence
Our first impression in the workplace is controlled by our ability to present well and project a professional image. Participation in this program will include identifying the skills to master, practicing with immediate video and instructor feedback, and learning to enjoy public speaking and professional presence.
Emotional Intelligence
Over half of our job success is based on our level of emotional intelligence. It is critical that we understand what high Emotional Intelligence (EI) looks like and how it relates to our personality and our Intellectual Quotient (IQ). Participants will leave understanding the four components of EI, how to improve their EI, and what high EI can do for their career success and earning potential.
Customer Service
We like to tell most everybody about our bad customer service experiences. We don't like to tell anybody if those experiences are directed at our own business or us personally. In this program, everyone leaves with a measure and strategy to multiply their value added customer service.

A withdrawal or leave of absence is considered official once the student gives notification of their intent and the Request Form has been submitted to the Office of Student Success at email@example.com.
The Request Form will state the intentions of the student to discontinue the course(s) in which he/she is registered and the effective date of program withdrawal or leave of absence will be implemented, which is then recorded by the Registrar's Office. During a student's leave of absence, the University maintains all of his or her official records on an active basis.
Students returning from a leave of absence of one year or less are not required to be formally readmitted. Students will be expected to fulfill the graduation requirements in effect at the date of their original matriculation.

Be gentle with your hair. Don't blow-dry it often and try to avoid using damaging coloring chemicals if possible.
Use a thickening shampoo. Consult with your doctor if you feel your tresses are getting too thin; he might be able to prescribe clinically reliable shampoos that reduce hair loss.
Keep taking prenatal vitamins. Prenatal vitamins are great for skin, hair and nail growth. Other vitamins that can help hair growth are Vitamin H, silica, calcium, zinc, flaxseed oil, and the omegas found in fish, avocados and nuts.
Massage your scalp. Massaging stimulates blood flow to the scalp, which encourages the hair follicles to grow hair. Use the tips of your fingers to gently rub the scalp in circular motions on a daily and regular basis.
Avoid thick and greasy hair masks and conditioners. Instead, use milder ones that won't potentially clog your pores and facilitate hair loss. Also opt for a refreshing natural hair mask that protects your growing baby hair.
Find ways to de-stress. Stress is a key contributing factor to postpartum hair loss. Try to find ways to decrease the level of stress in your life, and relax. Not only will it help reduce shedding, but it'll also be good for your overall health.

I have a set of stainless steel cookie sheets purchased about 25 years ago from a friend's brother. They are the best! I've never seen them for sale anywhere and have been searching online to buy some for my daughters. Norpro has a product that looks just like mine but the price is so cheap ($12) that I'm afraid they can't possibly be as high quality as the ones I have. If anyone has this cookie sheet I would really appreciate your opinion.

WALES and Scotland yesterday announced an agreement to become fair trade countries - a year after the launch of the Make Poverty History campaign and the G8 summit.
The Welsh Assembly government and Scottish Executive said they were committed to turning talk on poverty into action.
First Minister Rhodri Morgan said he hoped Wales would be a fair trade nation by next year.
The Welsh Assembly passed a resolution to make Wales a beacon of fair trade in 2004.
The scheme gives Third World farmers a fair price for their produce and pays a premium to hospitals and schools in their communities.
Mr Morgan said: "The use of fair trade products in Wales could lift thousands of poor Third World farmers out of poverty.
"Our buying decisions as public-sector organisations and individuals can make a real difference.
"The Fair Trade Country Campaign can engage all sections of society by raising awareness and sales of fair trade goods in Wales.
"I hope that Wales will become a fair trade country in 2007."
Thirteen Welsh towns or cities have achieved fair trade status by forming local action groups and producing fair trade shopping guides.
Making Wales a fair trade country will ensure fair trade fruit is available in schools.
