(AP) University of Minnesota President Eric Kaler says his school needs to do a better job of training its student-athletes on sexual assault and harassment issues because something isn't getting through. In an interview published Saturday in the St. Paul Pioneer Press (http://bit.ly/2jkbVdq ) in the wake of the football team's sexual assault scandal, Kaler said student-athletes are already getting strong guidance on dealing with those issues. "I think clearly we need to do both more and different (training), because our student-athletes get an exceptional amount of training around sexual assault and harassment issues, and yet we didn't seem to make the point," Kaler said. All University of Minnesota students go through sexual assault-awareness education after enrolling that includes an online assessment and interactive presentations. The school's roughly 750 student-athletes are also exposed to additional training and education conducted internally and through visiting presenters every year. All programs include a bystander education and intervention program developed by assistant athletics director Peyton Owens III. http://milwaukeehybridgroup.com/medicalinterview/2017/01/15/helpful-advice-on-down-to-earth-specialist-training-for-medical-plans/Players threatened last month to boycott the Holiday Bowl after expressing reservations about the university's internal investigation that led to the suspensions of 10 players over an alleged sexual assault in an apartment near campus. Some suspended players were accused of pressuring a woman into sex during a party after the team's season-opening win over Oregon State. Prosecutors twice declined to file charges, but the school's investigation found that the 10 players violated its conduct code and could face punishments up to and including expulsion. The appeals process is still pending.

The Legislature has a chance to change that," said Ron Watson, a lobbyist who represents AltMed, a Sarasota-based company founded by former pharmaceutical industry executives who have obtained a medical marijuana license in Arizona and are seeking one in Florida. The health department will hold public hearings to take input on the rule during the second week of February, with meetings in Jacksonville, Fort Lauderdale, Tampa, Orlando and Tallahassee. Department of Health spokeswoman Mara Gambineri said state officials "look forward to receiving input from all interested stakeholders" about the proposed rule. "That's why we're having the five public meetings," supplemented by the ability to provide comments online, she said. "We look forward to everybody's contributions," Gambineri said. Sen. Rob Bradley, who shepherded the state's medical-marijuana laws during the 2014 and 2016 legislative sessions, said he intends to release a new measure as early as this week. "I interpret the actions today from the department as a beginning point, a foundation from which to build the medical cannabis system that we're going to have in the state of Florida," Bradley, R-Fleming Island, told The News Service of Florida. "I would caution everyone not to overreact to the actions of the department. You have to start somewhere." Amendment 2 may have forced health officials to move forward with a proposed rule before the Legislature weighs in. It gives health officials until July 3 to finalize regulations to implement the constitutional change.

As a decision on Huawei's participation in building the UK 5G network gets closer, US Government officials are stepping up the pressure on London to keep the Chinese telecoms giant out.
UK press reported that on January 13, officials from America's National Economic Council and National Security Agency were holding face-to-face talks with their UK counterparts in London. Deputy national security adviser Matt Pottinger was expected to be one of the US officials taking part.
Just ahead of the visit, Andrew Parker, head of UK intelligence service MI5, said that he has "no reason to think" that the UK's intelligence-sharing relationship with the US would be hit if the UK adopted Huawei 5G technology.
UK Minister for Security Brandon Lewis told the BBC on Sunday that a decision would be made "relatively soon."
Elsewhere in Europe, German Chancellor Angela Merkel has shown herself to be open to Huawei involvement in the 5G network, but there are moves in the country's parliament to block its participation.
The US has had more success with its position in Poland, which has put in place a set of rules which will give it the flexibility to exclude Huawei involvement in most parts of the country's 5G infrastructure.

Cee Lo & Xtina's Teams Keep Us Warm on 'The Voice'
It's night two of The Voice's live episodes. Adam Levine and Blake Shelton's teams performed last night. There were highs and lows. There always are. I'm not a math gal, but according to my calculations, Christina Aguilera and Cee Lo Green's teams performed tonight! Hooray for trigonometry. The second batch of performers were not messing around. Especially the members of Team Xtina. Woo, I needed an ice bath to cool myself down after Team Xtina graced the stage. The following are my six favorite performances of the night. The live results show will air Thursday. I'm already a nervous wreck... ing... ball.
Tamara Chauniece singing "I Will Survive": The coaches said it was her best performance. It was really, really excellent. It was a technically flawless performance (according to my untrained ears), and her voice sounded so full. I will definitely watch it again.
Kat Robichaud singing "She Keeps Me Warm": I thought this was her best performance. The coaches wanted more of her leg-kickin' attitude, but I appreciated the change of pace. The toned-down vibe was so different from what we've come to expect from Kat, but I think that's a positive thing. Showin' off that range! Also, she hugged a random person in the audience, which was a strange but endearing moment.
Caroline Pennell singing "We're Going to Be Friends": If you had told me during the Blind Auditions that I'd be rooting for Caroline during the live rounds, I'd tell you to back up and drive away. Because I can't handle a soothsayer in my life. The performance was nice, lovely, sweet, pretty, warm, and cotton candy (that one was Blake's contribution). She made deliberate, yet subtle, changes to the song that really, really worked.
Stephanie Anne Johnson singing "Georgia On My Mind": This was exceptional. It was more than exceptional. I know the coaches dig Stephanie, but I don't think they ever give her the credit that she deserves. Like, this blew me away. The coaches should've been curled up in the fetal position on the ground next to their chairs.
Matthew Schuler singing "Wrecking Ball": Xtina knew what she was doing when she gave him this song. She knew that I would freak out and start tearing up as soon as the song began. She knew that Matthew would smash this song like a… round weight suspended from a crane. I went nuts, the coaches went nuts, the crowd went nuts, and Carson begged everyone to stop going nuts because they were running out of time.
Jacquie Lee singing "I Put a Spell On You": I held my breath for Jacquie. How could anyone possibly follow the monster that is Matthew Schuler? Oh, it looks like I'm an idiot, because Jacquie SLAYED IT. This was a Juliet Simms/"Roxanne" breakout moment. She was so witchy and perfect. How is this girl only 16? Bananas. Her range somehow managed to be even more amazeballs this week. What a mini-diva.
Cee Lo told Caroline that if they were in school together, he "would've protected [her] from bullies and carried [her] books." I couldn't stop picturing the two walking down the halls of my high school together, pitching song ideas back and forth. Adorabs. As if that wasn't enough, Caroline bugged Cee Lo to share some of his raisins with her. What a precious, odd pairing.

As humans we are designed to stand upright. In this way our bodies are perfectly balanced and our bones, muscles and joints in a neutral position, particularly with regard to the natural curve of our spine. People with existing back problems often find that working standing at an electric desk offers significant pain relief and can also help the recovery process.
The smooth electric height adjustment in the ConSet desk allows the user to alter their working height from 63 cm to 120 cm, making this perfect for multi-user environments. People of various heights can easily adjust their desk according to their specific needs – particularly beneficial for those of a taller stature to prevent stooping.
The Conset Electric Desk Frame - Heavy Duty is a powerful solution when large monitors or other heavy equipment need to be raised with a desk.
Why Buy This:
Powered by a robust Bosch motor integrated into the table leg, the Conset Heavy Duty Frame delivers 150kg of synchronised lift capacity. This synchronisation means the desk remains 100% level during and after height adjustment, and also that the frame can lift 150kg, no matter where on the desk the burden is placed. Despite the load, the integrated motor operates smoothly and quietly, at a maximum speed of 25 mm/sec, using an energy saving design. Four levellers on each leg ensure the stability of the frame. Cable holes make provision for tidy cable management, and the integrated modesty panel provides extra strength, in an attractive lattice pattern. Finished in a Silver or Black Powdercoat.
Who Buys This:
With a considerable enhancement in lifting capacity over our standard height adjustable tables, the Conset Heavy Duty Frame is ideal for pro-users in applications such as financial trading and software development, where multiple monitors are on the desk. It is also popular for applications where firm stability is essential, such as working with microscopes or other scientific equipment.
Custom Sizes:
Each of the frame choices has a number of standard desk shapes and sizes to choose from, but if you can't find the desk you want we can have it made for you. Please ask us for details on special desk shapes.

San Francisco Bay Area is launching startups that continue to dominate the industrial sector. Citizens, this has long been the blessing and curse.
In the bright side, the technology's early machine produces well-paid technology jobs and dollars in local economies. On the contrary, it increases the housing shortage and the high cost of living.
These topics were much higher than before the highest spirits: after all, the Intel giant technology Google on Facebook They have risen to the north of California for four decades. Lately, however, the question of how many technological giants in the region doubtful of their support for Pinterest, such as Uber and other valuable local businesses start the IPO path.
The concerns of the technology budgets were in Crunchbase To take a look at the news: Technology-based and based technology companies in Bayonne continue to grow where they are here? And what do employees work elsewhere?
The local Unicorn boom that causes agonizing inflationary causes a bit of soothing data. While the companies created in the Bay Area have very little room to move around, their employees become geographically scattered as they grow.
A company in the north of California does not mean that most of the workers are. The headquarters, according to our survey, do not always account for it.
"The location of the residence may often be a bad reference to identify where employees are," said Steve Cadigan, a founder of Cadigan Talent Ventures, based on Talent Talent based on Silicon Valley. This is especially true for high technology companies.
Among the largest employers of Northern California technology, Crunchbase News has been working for over 25 minutes in a city where they are headquartered. Below are the details of one of the most valuable technology companies in the region.
Intel exceptionally, all of these companies have a double percentage of employees in the headquarters, so it does not go as far as the city. However, if you are a new rental company of the most valuable Silicon Valley companies, there seems to be more opportunities when you are away from home.
Tesla, On the other hand, it is a special case. The company is in Palo Alto, but it does not meet the list of 10 employers. Nearby Fremonten, The Kalifornians, however, is Tesla's largest employer and informs about 10,000 in its auto installation (Tesla has around 49,000 employees in general).
Unicorns go to San Francisco, fewer workers
High-value companies that have private and recently public companies may be very scattered.
Although they are home to more percentages of online employees, they are larger than the established technology giants.
Move Uber, the trend of this poster. Although located in San Francisco, the giant of the walker is less than a quarter of them. Of the 22,300 employees of international staff, there are only 5,000 SFs.
It is not clear that this type of separation is common. We had problems with other geographic workers that were similar to the Bay Area unicorns, especially the cities that only extracted their top 10 employers. The region's ice lion quota is based on San Francisco, of which only Uber has found 10.
In other words, it is another methodology for the evaluation of people working in the headquarters: jobs. Bay Area-based number of valuable unicorns – including Airbnb, Juul, Lime, Instacart, Stripe and now-public Lyft – a large number of open positions far away from the home office. And last year we wrote that private companies are looking for cities to set up secondary schools.
In the early stages of the startup, it is not uncommon to establish the head office in the San Francisco area to finance and access the network, while hiring another place, Cadigan said. The evolution of collaborative tools has allowed more companies to work remotely or secondarily in secondary schools.
Most of all, of course, unicorn startups tend to be nationally or globally, which implies hiring customers.
Please take our work
As we have finished, it is worthwhile how often people in a subway area deal with a lot of highly skilled jobs. Over the last two years, these positions have become more commonplace. See the mystical reactions of the HQ2 Amazon's neighbors' neighbors. And in San Francisco, the growth of many newly-created IPO millions is spreading violence among its residents, along with the joy of the crowd of attackers.
As new universities keep older students older than older people, it seems reasonable to retain North California strength as a start-up center, placing jobs out of the ranks as a business scale. The good news for other cities, such as Austin, Phoenix, Nashville, Portland and others, to name fast-growing as a secondary town.
That said, we do not predict the short-term contraction of technological jobs in the Bay Area, especially in startup varieties. It continues to capitalize on the new capitalized resources that regional entrepreneurs and massive ecosystemic risks continue to recruit.
We only looked at employment at the company headquarters (except Apple) . List companies may have additional employees in other cities in Northern California. Apple calculated all employees of Silicon Valley in the Silicon Valley Business Journal.
Numbers will be rounded up to the nearest closest employers. Most data are only for full-time employees. High-technology employers hire full-time workers for positions, so partial work, whether or not involved, is reflected in a very small percentage of employment.
Cities list the top 10 employers in annual reports. We have used two-year reports, as well as Wikipedia data, with a natural 2017 or 2018 calendar year.

To work with a web host that values your privacy search for a host which has an address bar starting with "https://". This really is shown when the website is protected and not able to possess info stolen from it. If the website doesn't have that in the address bar, you should steer clear of it.
Make sure your web hosting offers adequate security. Safety ought to usually be a primary concern, but it is even more essential if your website is going to become involved in any e-commerce. Look for a multi-layered safety method which will protect both you as well as your possible clients from hackers and identity thieves.
When searching for a web hosting provider, a great indicator of a professional firm is a frequently updated blog on the provider's web site. Even though it might be overlooked, a weblog indicates that the provider is prepared to maintain communication, whether it's about server issues, upgrades, or new attributes that are around the way. Also search for professional responses to comments left for the provider by other customers.
When searching for a good web hosting business, you'll quickly discover that all of these businesses are not created equally. Some of the less reputable businesses will host up to a thousand websites on a single server! With servers which are so overloaded, their clients can encounter reliability issues, as well as, reduced visitors capacity. Prior to choosing a hosting company, do some study. Great internet hosting businesses only host in between 200 to 250 web sites per server. By doing this, they are ensuring that their bandwidth and storage space are not overloaded.
Study every potential internet host's customer assistance prior to deciding on a host. The simpler it is to obtain in touch with the hosting service, the much more most likely you're to become happy. If you're getting issues with your web hosting account, you'll need to become able to effortlessly reach customer service by email or phone.
Be sure you, and not your web host, controls your domain name. In the event you let your host control your domain name, you might be stuck with that host in the event you do not want to alter domains. Some unscrupulous hosts won't release the domain info if you leave on bad terms. In the event you control the domain, you can point it at an additional host's nameservers and begin fresh.
When choosing a internet hosting service for your website, make sure that you study critiques of any host you are considering. You would not purchase a new car or perhaps a new dishwasher with out reading some critiques of it first. Exactly the same should be true when you're looking for a web host.
Hopefully the suggestions of this article have cleared up any confusion you might have had about acquiring the very best internet host for the requirements. Contemplating how important this is to help keep your website up and operating, you really require to devote the essential time and work to discovering the right hosting.

Limerick is a sarcastic and humorous form of poetry intended to entertain people.
This form of poetry dates back to 18th century and even earlier days.
A standard form of limerick contains 5 lines with a rhyme scheme of 'aabba' meaning that the first two lines and last line rhyme with each other, whereas the 3rd and 4th lines rhyme with each one of them.
The first, second and fifth lines of the limerick are normally made up of three feet each with 3 syllables. The fourth and fifth lines have only two feet with three syllables each. But there are many writers who do not follow all these standards. Many limericks are there with more syllables, particularly in the last sentence. Even the rhyming pattern also gets changed according to the styles of writers.
A sample of Limerick created by me is given below.
"There lived a girl named Nirmala
Some called her Pilla not Nirmala
Do you know what pilla is
Dog's synonym in Hindi it is
Don't know why they never called her Nirmala"
There are some fun facts about Limerick
Limerick is a city and also a county in Ireland. The old history of this county dates back to 3500 BC.
In Irish language limerick refers to "flat area"
This county has been a place for great artists, comedians, musicians and sculptors. In 2014, Limerick has been selected as Ireland's inaugural National city of Culture.
Many believe that the poetry genre 'limerick' has its origin from this city of Limerick.
PS. This post is in response to Laura Feasey's blogging event "Literary Lion" at this Link.

Totti breaks Giggs' record as Roma hold City
Francesco Totti became the oldest scorer in the Champions League to help Roma earn a merited point in a 1-1 draw at Manchester City in Group E.
Totti cancelled out Sergio Aguero's opener from the penalty spot on four minutes when he lifted the ball calmly over Joe Hart after bounding onto a delightful pass from Radja Nainggolan on 22 minutes.
Having turned 38 on Saturday, the Roma icon overtakes Giggs, who scored for Manchester United In Europe's elite competition aged 37 years and 289 days.
Roma benefited from a slice of good fortune when Maicon avoided being sent off after hauling back Aguero for the concession of the penalty.
He was clearly the last man, and should have been red carded by the letter of the law.
Roma made the most of retaining 11 men as they carried the game to City throughout the evening, and could easily have departed England with three points in their locker.
It is a huge draw for Roma, who have four points from their two matches leaving City up against it to qualify for the last 16 with only one point from their opening two games in a section that also contains Bayern Munich and CSKA Moscow.

This one was supposed to be easy. This was supposed to be brief: I said so, last time. You see – and there are going to be a lot of naval puns during this one, so brace yourself – Making Waves pretty much sunk without a trace.
After years in development hell and after being rescheduled four times, this ITV flagship drama emerged onto our screens in the summer of 2004, opposite Supernanny. Sort of Soldier, Soldier but featuring the Royal Navy (hence its nickname Sailor, Sailor), it depicted the arrival of a new captain – played by ex-EastEnders psycho, Scottish actor Alex Ferns – on board the fictional frigate HMS Suffolk, and his attempts to make it sea-ready, all to the backdrop of the relationships of the crew and various exciting naval events, such as piracy, illegal immigrants, smuggling and explosions.
With £5 million in budget and the might of legendary producer Ted Childs (Lewis, Inspector Morse, Soldier Soldier, Sharpe, Kavanagh QC) behind it, there were high expectations in some quarters, but after just three episodes, falling ratings meant it was cancelled. Despite there already being three more episodes in the can, ITV never repeated it or showed the remaining episodes.
There was a DVD of the show, but only ever 2,500 or so were pressed and they were mainly sold to the Navy. You can't get it from Amazon; you can't find it on eBay. And here's the only publicity still of our Joanna Page, who played new rating, Operating Mechanic Rosie Bowen, that appears to have survived online.
So I thought this was going to be brief, since I couldn't really say much about it. As I said, easy.
But then I found out that someone had uploaded the whole series to YouTube, so meticulous journo that I am, I had to watch the whole thing – you can, too, if you hang around to the end of this entry.
And I have to say, despite a shaky start, it was actually really enjoyable (although typically, mainly during the cancelled episodes), has possibly one of the most exciting, hardware-based episodes of anything ever made for British TV – and more importantly for Today's Joanna Page, has her only outing so far as 'action heroine'.
In fact, I'm quite cross – angry even – that it was cancelled.
Now before we embark on this journey, it's worth noting that it's not a brilliant show. It's fairly clunky in places and feels like The Bill on water at times. Some of the acting is spectacularly duff. The tendency towards Club X-style wonky camera work is irritating. The third episode is pretty abysmal and the second episode has that Lieutenant Commander Quatermaine (seriously) doing t'ai ch'i on the decks, FFS. It's certainly not up there with Ian Sandbaggers Mackintosh's Warship, for example. But then, what is? And it's by no means truly representative of the Navy, being a polished up, glossier, kindergarten version that creeps close to agitprop at times.
All the same, it is actually worth watching.
I say this for a few reasons.
Why you should watch
Firstly, it's not that bad. In fact, given a bit of time and a bit more work, it could have been really good. As it is, I started off forcing myself to watch the first episode, looking forward to the second episode and then deliberately making time to watch the third to sixth episodes. And the fourth and the fifth episodes are both great. Really.
Secondly, the Royal Navy, and indeed the armed forces, don't get much of a look in on TV. Not properly anyway. Sure, we'll get the occasional documentary thrown our way, such as Commando – On The Front Line and Ross Kemp in Afghanistan, but drama series are surprisingly few and far between. When they do arrive, they're things like Red Cap, which starred Tamzin Outhwaite. Need I say more? (You're much better off getting a copy of Red Cap with John Thaw, even though that's from the 1960s).
Given how important the armed forces are and the sacrifices they make for us, that's a bit of a national disgrace, really. No? Well, Gordon Brown's busy floating the idea of introducing cadet forces to British schools to help kids to understand the military better (although no extra swimming pools or flying lessons mentioned yet, so mainly the army, I guess) – which would you prefer: that or some exciting drama series? There. Thought you'd agree with me.
At the very least, Making Waves was a relatively interesting look at life on board a modern British warship and could have provided the casual viewer with a greater appreciation for our boys and girls in navy blue; if you didn't before and you came away with nothing else from it, that would be probably be good enough.
But lastly, it's one of the few attempts by British TV to do a modern action show that doesn't suck absolutely. Even Ultimate Force at its best – and yes, it did have a best, albeit briefly – never scales the heights of the fourth episode of Making Waves, which features warships, helicopters, aircraft, anti-aircraft guns, the Royal Marines, simulated terrorist attacks, gunfights, submarines, and more (some of which might be models or stock footage, admittedly, but it's YouTube so how can I tell?). Heavens knows how much time and effort the Royal Navy provided for the show (although at least they billed Carlton for the costs.), not just in terms of the hardware – principally the HMS Grafton – but also the locations made available to Carlton in Portsmouth, such as the HMS Victory.
The problems
Trouble is, ITV really didn't know what to do with it. They didn't really market it (did anyone else notice it was even on?); they gave it a rubbish time slot; when they did promote it, they tried to market it as an action show, and although it has its moments and despite what I've just said, Making Waves, isn't really an action show.
You see, action shows on water suffer from a problem highlighted by The Simpsons' 'Knight Boat' – if the baddies aren't at sea, on an inlet or in a fjord, the navy's not got much to do with it, really (unless they can send helicopters or a Tomahawk after them). And there's only a few possible action plots to deal with as a result, if there's no actual war involved.
So for the most part, the show spread those scarce action plots pretty thinly and was more concerned with the sailors' private lives. Not to anywhere near the same extent as Soldier, Soldier was, but that was a great deal of the show. And if you promote the show as an action show and the action only turns up during the fourth episode, despite a nice try in the first episode, you're not going to get the right kind of viewer – at least, not the kind that stays around for the next episode.
Despite the high budget, the omniprescent hardware, rare locations, and the action sequences, it also seems cheap. The title sequence looks like it cost thruppence ha'penny; the theme tune – which I kind of like all the same – has more than a few hints of the daytime TV about it; the series was the first major UK drama shot on the cheaper-than-cheap-looking mini DV format for logistical reasons – which shouldn't be a problem since you can run it through a filter to give it a filmic look if you want, but Carlton didn't – and most of the interior shots have a resultant Triangle feel to them, which is just horrifying. Nothing should ever remind you of Triangle.
When action does strike, it's not like those Navy recruitment ads of brave sailors capturing pirates in the South Seas – it's off the coast of Jersey. Again, a touch of the Triangles there, and if the show had ever reached second series, maybe that promised Caribbean deployment might have made things a touch more exotic.
All of these things probably put a few people off. Yet the show got ratings of four million, which ITV would be more than happy with these days for a summer show. As I said, I'm angry this got cancelled, because you really shouldn't take up this much of the Royal Navy's time and then not even bother to show the last three episodes or bother to promote it or schedule it properly.
It's also pretty typical of the ITV of 2004 PG (pre-Grade) and David Liddiment to have taken a leaf from the American TV model of ruthlessness towards struggling shows and not from the BBC's more nuturing approach. And that's why they're in the mess they're in now.
For the most part, the plots are pretty serviceable and typically exploit just about every hoary navy cliché in the book. Since you'll be able to watch them in a moment, I won't spoil the episodes too much. But the series-long arc is the attempt to get the HMS Suffolk seaworthy after its captain and XO leave; there are sub-plots involving fraternisation between an officer and a rating, one of the crew who loses his bottle after a tragic accident, and an engineer who has to face up to being a father.
It's quite clever, in fact, to set the whole thing during sea-worthiness trials since you get all the excitement of exocets and modern naval warfare, without the budget expenditure or the terrible injuries and deaths. Would a second series have been able to keep up the action levels?
To be slightly fair to ITV, the episodes definitely work together better as a series rather than individually, making Making Waves a show better watched on YouTube or a DVD than live. You can overlook the flaws in individual episodes that given a week might have been enough to put you off from watching the rest of the show. On the other hand, episode six almost feels like an afterthought, in which the results of the sea trials are announced and then there's a families day on the ship. Can we say 'plot thread resolution episode' together?
Again, we suffer from first-episode issues here. Most of the characters are stereotypes or issues in disguise. We have the Scottish captain (tough, slightly humourless, dour, but fair); we have the female officer who's unsure about her future in the navy because of her conflicting personal life; the novice rating who quickly settles in; the Scouse scally; the slightly miserable Welshman; the slightly floozy Welshwoman and so on. But after the first episode they start to lose the two-dimensions of the set-up and become more interesting. Some of them even become likeable, including Ferns who's pretty good in a lead role that doesn't involve being pure evil, it turns out. Few of them manage to learn how to act though.
Joanna Page
Which is what most people are here for, understandably (except for fans of Scottish actors such as Alex Ferns). Quite an un-glam role for her here, in her first TV series, and she gets to be Welsh, too. It's a bit of a shame that she's the novice rating who's a bit lacking in confidence and needs to be the Everywoman point of identification and recipient of plot information, since her character retrospectively looks an awful lot like "what if Stacey had joined the Navy?"
But for all the role's lack of definition – there's barely a line of background information about her, why she joined up, where she's from, etc – and occasionally being the thankless instrument of the plot, she's an action adventure heroine, which is a definite Good Thing.
She's beating up members of the HMS Wessex down the pub (never have you seen someone so sheepish after knocking the crap out of someone in a pub fight).
Jumping in and out of boats to rescue people
Wielding rifles
A lot
Swimming to fix leaks underwater
Defending lesbians' right to protest against nuclear waste and not be sat on by sailors
Representing the Suffolk in a boxing match
Repelling the advances of lesbians in the locker room afterwards. Blimey there are a lot of lesbians round here, aren't there?
And finally as a gym bunny
In a minute, because of my dedication to the art of blogging, journalistic thoroughness, etc, you can see all six episodes on YouTube, bunged together into six playlists for your ease of viewing (although I'd recommend TubeSocking them). Aren't I great?
PS Don't s'pose anyone can do me a copy of the DVD could they? Then I could up the picture quality for y'all and you could see what's going on.
PPS The following fine naval puns were discarded at the editing stage: "never found its sea legs"; "All was not ship shape and Bristol fashion", "Didn't like the cut of its jib", "Hang them from the yard arm"
Next time: (after a review of Fat Pig, once I've been to see it) We've done period drama; we've done naval drama; how about naval period drama? Yes, it's time for To the Ends of the Earth.

About the Robert Graves Diary project
This project is a collaboration between the University of Victoria Humanities Computing and Media Centre and the UVic Libraries. The original diary manuscripts, which consist of 1546 pages including 117 enclosures (letters, clippings, photographs post cards, notes, games etc.), are held in the UVic Libraries Special Collections. Detailed information about the diary itself, its history and provenance, is available on the Special Collections project page.
The digital edition you see here was one of the earliest TEI XML-based digital editions undertaken by the UVic HCMC, in the early 2000s. It has undergone many revisions, but we have attempted throughout the process to maintain the original look-and-feel of the digital edition, since we feel that the interface itself is an artifact of significance in the short history of digital humanities and online scholarly publication. This is a brief outline of the major stages in the project. (See also this conference presentation from 2005.)
- The original transcription was made by Beryl Graves from photocopies some time prior to 1983. This was annotated by Karl Goldschmidt, Graves's secretary. In the 1990s, William Graves provided further annotations and information on places, people, titles and other related information.
- The manuscript contents were photographed in 2002 by Chris Petter of Special Collections.
- The text was encoded in XML using a TEI P4 DTD by Linda Roberts. Chris Petter, and Jessica Posgate. Elizabeth Grove-White provided editorial expertise. Martin Holmes wrote a simple online database to manage linked references.
- Monthly abstracts were written by Jillian Shoichet.
- between 2003 and 2005, Spencer Rose created an interactive web application based on an early version of the eXist XML Database engine.
- Between 2005 and 2010, Martin Holmes maintained and updated the web application, adding some functionality relating to enclosures.
- In 2010-2011, Michael Joyce ported the original Web application to a new platform based on more modern versions of the Cocoon and eXist software packages.
- In 2015, Martin Holmes converted the TEI P4 XML to P5, along with the data from the original reference database.
- In 2016-2018, Martin Holmes and Joey Takeda, as part of the
Endings Project,
rewrote the entire project to create a portable, static web application suitable for
long-term archiving. This version also runs in eXist in order to provide search functionality,
but other than that it has no back-end dependencies. In fact the project has four
search engines, an odd situation arising out of our research into how best to provide
functionality to a digital edition project over the long term:
- The main eXist-based search engine. This reproduces the original functionality from the original web application, although it has some minor improvements. If the application is running in eXist, this is found on the home page; if not running in eXist, it can be found at existIndex.html, although of course it will not work.
- A Google Custom Search page, found at gSearch.html. This will continue to work as long as Google APIs remain stable and the relevant Google account is maintained. This of course hosts advertising in the results.
- A search engine based on the UVic Library's Solr installation, located at sSearch.html. This is experimental and currently in development, but should ultimately provide a rich faceted search capability which is not dependent on the eXist web application.

IDEAS Trainees' Internship Experiences:
Alice Lucas at Cadre Research Labs
Alice is a 2017 and 2018 IDEAS Fellow and a Ph.D. student in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science.
She interned at Cadre Research Labs in Chicago, IL.
During this internship, Alice implemented an algorithm for automatic denoising of 3-dimensional high-resolution scans of firearm cartridge casings. The algorithm for denoising was implemented with the use of computer vision methods in C++. In addition to this, Alice implemented and trained a deep Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) in Tensorflow to perform automatic semantic segmentation of these firearm cartridge casings.
Her work at Cadre Research Labs provided her with a hands-on opportunity to apply her Machine Learning knowledge and coding skills, acquired through the IDEAS tutorials and courses, to the topic of 3D scan processing. She still uses her knowledge acquired as a result of her internship to her laboratory work at Northwestern, where she trains Deep CNNs for the problem of image and video recovery.
Boris Rösler at the IRIS Data Management Center
Boris is a 2017 and 2018 IDEAS Fellow and a Ph.D. student in Seismology in the Department of Earth and Planetary Science.
He interned at the IRIS Data Management Center (DMC) in Seattle.
He developed a new data product which shows the patterns of seismic energy radiation by azimuth around the epicenter for Rayleigh and Love waves. It provides reference for all seismologists studying the surface waves of a specific event by predicting ground motion at different azimuths around the epicenter of an earthquake. For all events with moment magnitude Mw ≥ 6.0, the product provides plots based on the source mechanism reported by the Global CMT Project. The event-based radiation patterns are accompanied by an interactive plot based on source mechanisms chosen by the user. After receiving information about the source mechanism of a new earthquake via a web service, the new data product updates its data base automatically and generates radiation pattern plots based on the source mechanism.
The goal of his internship was to establish an unsupervised process to keep the product's data base up to date and to provide an instructive, yet flexible environment for the presentation of the radiation patterns. The development of the new data product was a team effort with experts in different fields working together. Acquiring knowledge about the required processes for the functionality of a data product and adapting code to a specific environment were among the most important lessons learnt during this internships. After becoming publicly available through the website of the IRIS Consortium, the new data product has been presented at the AGU meeting in Washington, DC and is expected to gain further attention after the SSA meeting in Seattle, WA later this year.

Marty and Jocelyn Scaffer were visiting family in Cleveland when they spotted, toured and – to their own surprise – made an offer on the PNC SmartHome. It's easy to see why the Schaffers fell in love with the SmartHome, the first Passive House in Northeast Ohio; it consumes 90 percent less cooling and heating energy than a conventional house thanks to a Hyper-Heating INVERTER® system from Mitsubishi Electric.

Name and explain with suitable examples, three reasons why international marketing is more challenging than domestic marketing. Answer:
Marketing is the efficient and effective management and utilization of a company's resources to meet the consumers demands and the company's objectives. It involves selling the company's products to satisfy the needs of consumers. It includes planning, conception and execution of ideas, pricing, promotion, and distribution of a company's products with the purpose of obtaining the company's objectives and satisfying the consumers. Marketing can be done within a local or domestic market or across national borders or in the international market. Here are some of the different features of Domestic Marketing and International Marketing: Domestic Marketing
Domestic marketing is the selling of a company's products within a local financial market. It deals with only one set of competition and economic issues which make it more convenient to do. There are no language barriers in domestic marketing and obtaining and interpreting data on local marketing trends and consumer demands is easier and faster to do. It helps the company make decisions and develop marketing strategies that are more effective and efficient. The risks are also lesser with domestic marketing and it needs lesser financial resources. Local markets are not as broad as the international market though and most companies are aiming at doing business globally.
International Marketing
International marketing is the promotion and sale of a company's products to consumers in different countries. It is very complex and requires a huge amount of financial resources. Every country has its own laws on business and a company that aims at entering into business in another country must first know about them. Consumer tastes and preferences may also differ so marketing strategies must be formulated to cater to the needs of different consumers. International marketing...

Just on general principle it's smart not to log in to your computer as the Administrator unless you're purposefully doing something that requires Administrator access, and now it appears like there another good reason to limit your own privileges during normal use.
On Tuesday, December 27, 2005, Microsoft became aware of public reports of malicious attacks on some customers involving a previously unknown security vulnerability in the Windows Meta File (WMF) code area in the Windows platform.
Basically that means that simply viewing an infected image file can corrupt your system, whether you view the image on a webpage, or through email, or whatever.
An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could only gain the same user rights as the local user. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than users who operate with administrative user rights.
Which means that if you're logged in as an Administrator or a user with administration privileges your computer will be much more at-risk than if you're logged in as a normal user.

The Transcendent Science: Kant's Conception of Biological by C. Zumbach
By C. Zumbach
The such a lot overlooked zone of Kant's severe Philosophy is his collec tion of feedback approximately organic phenomena within the moment a part of the Critique of Judgment, the Critique of Teleological Judgment. the explanations for this are a variety of, yet given that in Kant, every little thing is available in threes, a three-fold assortment will suffice. The Critique of Teleological Judgment itself is one cause. greater than such a lot of his writings, this section of the serious corpus suffers from what can so much charitably be termed "mistakes of exposition. " during this a part of the 3rd Critique, it truly is average to discover sub-arguments in Kant's basic place someplace except their logical area of interest. the result's that the overall subject at the back of his feedback approximately residing phenomena is obscured. This trouble has performed a lot to deter even the main enthusiastic of Kant admirers from making an investment their time in this paintings. Secondly, during this century, till very lately, there was no interest in philosophical questions about biology. Twenty-one out of thirty-one sections of the Critique of Teleological Judgment (sections #61 and 63-83) deal both without delay or in a roundabout way with problems with curiosity within the philosophy of biology. ultimately, the Critique of Teleological Judgment has been positioned one of the final on that checklist "of writings idea to formulate Kant's serious process. this isn't simply as a result of its temporal position.
Informed Consent: Information Production and Ideology by Lisa R. Schiff
By Lisa R. Schiff
What percentage american citizens are homeless? even though taking a census may possibly sound uncomplicated, making sure a correct count number is the least of its difficulties. Census takers in all walks of lifestyles workout nice care in making a choice on what details is to be accrued, the way it is to be recorded, and the way the findings are eventually to be awarded.
But who comes to a decision which review frameworks and signs are for use? Do all concerned-census takers and respondents view these symptoms within the comparable demeanour? Do institutional and social imperatives outweigh person bias and viewpoint? And if this is the case, is that actually what we'd like?
Informed Consent analyzes the interaction among ideology and knowledge. via large study on how information regarding the homeless is generated and interpreted, Lisa Schiff deals either tough proof and a resounding argument for wondering "how provider companies create types and consumers whole them, how advocates administer surveys and public corporations bring together counts." whilst, she explores the day by day implications of her findings through demonstrating how competing understandings have an effect on winning ideologies, which in flip impact our makes an attempt at social swap.
Transhumanism and Society: The Social Debate over Human by Stephen Lilley
By Stephen Lilley
This ebook presents an introductory evaluation to the social debate over enhancement applied sciences with an summary of the transhumanists' name to avoid human nature and conservationists' argument in safety of it. the writer current this controversy because it unfolds within the contest among transhumanists proponents and conservationists, who ward off with an issue to preserve human nature and to prohibit enhancement applied sciences.
This booklet presents an outline of the main contested issues and current the controversy in an orderly, positive type.

A Theory of Fields by Neil Fligstein
By Neil Fligstein
Discovering how one can comprehend the character of social switch and social order-from political pursuits to industry meltdowns-is one of many enduring difficulties of social technology. A conception of Fields attracts jointly far-ranging insights from social stream thought, organizational thought, and financial and political sociology to build a basic thought of social association and strategic motion.
In a piece of outstanding synthesis, mind's eye, and research, Neil Fligstein and Doug McAdam suggest that social switch and social order should be understood via what they name strategic motion fields. They posit that those fields are the final construction blocks of political and fiscal existence, civil society, and the kingdom, and the elemental type of order in our global this day. just like Russian dolls, they're nested and hooked up in a broader surroundings of virtually numerous proximate and overlapping fields. Fields are collectively based; swap in a single usually triggers switch in one other. on the middle of the idea is an account of the way social actors model and continue order in a given box. This sociological concept of motion, what they name "social skill," is helping clarify what members do in strategic motion fields to realize cooperation or have interaction in pageant.
To reveal the breadth of the idea, Fligstein and McAdam make its summary rules concrete via prolonged case stories of the Civil Rights circulate and the increase and fall of the marketplace for mortgages within the U.S. because the Sixties. The publication additionally offers a "how-to" advisor to aid others enforce the technique and discusses methodological issues.
With a daring new method, A thought of Fields offers either a rigorous and essentially acceptable state of mind via and making feel of social order and change-and how one emerges from the other-in sleek, complicated societies.

Multi-Method Social Science: Combining Qualitative and by Jason Seawright
By Jason Seawright
Reflecting the emerging approval for examine that mixes qualitative and quantitative social technology, Multi-Method Social technology offers the 1st systematic consultant to designing multi-method study. It argues that tools will be productively mixed utilizing the framework of integrative multi-method learn, with one process used to hold out a last causal inference, and techniques from different traditions used to check the main assumptions considering that causal inference. In making this argument, Jason Seawright considers a variety of statistical instruments together with regression, matching, and normal experiments. The e-book additionally discusses qualitative instruments together with technique tracing, using causal method observations, and comparative case research learn. alongside the way in which, the textual content develops over a dozen multi-method designs to check key assumptions approximately social technology causation.
