Fascism is an authoritarian political ideology (generally tied to a mass movement) that considers the individual subordinate to the interests of the state, party or society as a whole. Fascists seek to forge a type of national unity. Various scholars attribute different characteristics to fascism, but the following elements are usually seen as its integral parts: patriotism, nationalism, statism, militarism, totalitarianism, anti-communism, corporatism, populism, collectivism, autocracy and opposition to political and economic liberalism.
The primary figurehead of Fascism in the 20th century was Benito Mussolini of Italy. He eventually aligned his country of Adolf Hitler and Germany, which was ruled by the Nazi Party, a political movement that took many cues from Fascism. This alliance became the core of the Axis, a political and military alliance, composed of countries that were governed on the Fascist model.
Fascism in The GladiatorEdit
After communism encompassed the world, fascism joined capitalism as a historical bogeyman. Gianfranco Mazzilli and Annarita Crosetti were disturbed by the revelation that there were alternates where fascism had triumphed. They were also offended when Crosstimer Eduardo Caruso suggested that those alternates were "only slightly worse" than their own.[1]
Fascism in In the Presence of Mine EnemiesEdit
Fascism and Nazism dominated most of the world after the Axis emerged victorious from the Second World War. Their vanquished enemies were conquered, and subsequently ruled by governments built on the Fascist or Nazi models.
However, after some decades, countries under the heel of Nazi Germany began pushing for reform. Britain's Union of Fascists led the way in 2010 by electing Charlie Lynton as party-head (a position which made its holder Prime Minister of Britain by default), rather than allow a leader be appointed by committee.
With the arrival of Führer Heinz Buckliger's reforms, Fascist governments across the continent began loosening their restrictions and slowly asserting their autonomy. With the failure of the 2011 Putsch, the world began turning slowly away from fascism.
Fascism in "Ready for the Fatherland"Edit
The Fascist Bloc was one of three great powers existing following the end of World War II, along with the Communist Bloc and the Anglo-American sphere of influence. Germany led the Fascist Bloc, whose member states included Italy and Croatia.
Fascism in Southern VictoryEdit
Literary CommentEdit
While several entities appear in the Southern Victory series that are fascistic in nature (including the Freedom Party, the Silver Shirts, and Action Francaise), fascism was not a formalized ideology in that series. Indeed, the word fascism does not appear to have entered into the vernacular.
Fascist Parties of NoteEdit

Welwyn Garden City school scoops inclusion award
PUBLISHED: 11:00 03 March 2018 | UPDATED: 12:04 03 March 2018
Danny Loo Photography 2018
A Welwyn Garden City primary school has been awarded for its "inclusive practice and nurturing ethos".
Peartree Primary School was bestowed with the Inclusion Quality Mark (IQM) and named as a Centre of Excellence for Inclusion following an assessment.
The IQM was established in the UK in October 2004 with the objective of supporting both state and independent schools to become inclusive.
Inspectors said in their report: "Peartree Primary School is a welcoming and happy school that prides itself on its inclusive practice and nurturing ethos."
To celebrate the achievement pupils created a beautiful piece of artwork, which every child contributed to, and was unveiled in a special assembly by Welwyn Hatfield's deputy mayor Barbara Fitzsimmons.
Headteacher Clare Herbert said: "We are so pleased with this award and we are very proud of the hard work our staff put in to help our children.
"To be named as a Centre of Excellence is very special and we are delighted that the IQM identified how much progress our children make, regardless of any challenges to their learning."
Acting deputy head and inclusion leader Clare Bellwood explained that school leaders carefully assess the needs of each child and plan for them individually.
She said: "We take a holistic view. This involves using a child-centred approach to learning so our children feel they have ownership of their own education."

Casino Bonuses: Too Good To Be True?
The first things that most players see when browsing a casino's website are the bonuses that are offered. There are so many, though, that sometimes it can be hard to makes heads or tails of them.
How They Are Broken Down
Websites have a habit of offering very large numbers to tempt new players to sign up. A flashing banner proclaiming up to $10,000 in free cash would be tempting to just about anyone, but there is generally a catch. With enormous bonuses like that, they are usually broken up over a series of deposits and require an equal or greater deposit on the part of the player. A bonus like that may be spread out over 10 deposits of up to $1,000, or even further. For truly free bonuses that don't require real money deposit, visit this casino portal.
Read the Fine Print
Very few sites offer truly unrestricted bonuses. Some do not deposit the bonuses into a players account until he or she has played for a certain amount of time; others deposit it slowly over a period of days or weeks. Some sites even restrict what games the bonus money can be used to play. Some can limit the use to a certain class of games, such as table or specialty games, or to a certain type, such as slots.
Choose Carefully
It is important to be very choosy or even downright picky when it comes to selecting an online casino. Do a little research as to the quality of the site overall before making that first deposit. Don't be blinded by the shiny bonus offers. There are a number of websites that do nothing but review online casinos and rate them based on important factors such as stability and security.
While the bonuses are tempting, they shouldn't be the only factor a player uses when choosing an online casino. Use all the helpful resources if you want to be informed about the ways in which you can win a jackpot. There are a whole lot of tips at casino guides. The casino bonus en ligne page provides such tips for you. Be sure to look it up later. Even when selecting them, it is important for individuals to take the time to choose carefully.

The duties of the pack leader:
1. Establish the rules
2. Enforce the rules
3. Maintain social order (leader of the pack chooses who is in the pack, and what authority each does or does not have.
Here is a list of "Relationship "Exercises that should be implemented to assert yourself as Pack Leader These exercises outline specific privileges that a good leader would either expect or assume.
1. Leaders eat first
2. Leaders go through doorways first
3. Leaders stay calm and in control
4. Leaders set the pace and the direction (i.e., heeling)
5. Leaders do not let their personal space be invaded
6. Leaders say when play begins and when it ends
7. Leaders do not beg for attention
8. Leaders do not offer "free" treats
9. Leaders assume the higher ground (i.e. beds, couches, chairs, etc.
10.Leaders never change their direction or step over a dog
11.Leaders assign resting spots for other pack members.
In conclusion; Please be aware that as your dog's behavior improves you can slowly return his privileges. It isn't very often that you will have to completely maintain the strict code of behavior that is laid out in "Relationship Exercises". If you return only 1 or 2 privileges at a time you can determine if that privilege causes the dog's behavior to regress. For example, if your dog reverts back to an unacceptable behavior because you let him sleep on the bed, then you would immediately remove that privilege. There are certain dogs that can't handle certain privileges, like sleeping on the bed, without causing him to behave badly. By only allowing privileges that don't affect your dog's good behavior you can give a great deal of freedom in his life while still being a good leader.
Please leave your comments on whether you would like me to continue with these types of posts. Thanks...

When Rick Nash scored 41 goals as a 19-year-old in the 2003-04 season, sharing the Maurice "Rocket" Richard trophy for most goals in the NHL with Ilya Kovalchuk and Jarome Iginla, the bar was set pretty high at an early age.
That season marked the first big leap of Nash's career, from a typical, inconsistent rookie in 2002-03 to a goal-scoring machine.
There has been one other notable growth spurt in Nash's trajectory. It occurred when Ken Hitchcock took over as Blue Jackets coach during the 2006-07 season and helped turn Nash from an offensive hound into a two-way demon.
Nash has grown into one of the NHL's elite, and now there are only small, subtle steps to be made.
"I would say this is my best season so far," Nash said. "I had 41 goals the one season "
He paused and grinned before adding, "But I was, what, minus-35?"
Exactly minus-35.
Today in Montreal, Nash will take part in his fourth NHL All-Star Game.
"It's a game for the fans, and if people think you're one of the best players in the game, that's a pretty good compliment," he said.A career year
Nash has 43 points in 43 games, a point-per-game pace for the first time in his career. He is surrounded by better talent, which has helped his production.
But Hitchcock sees a more subtle factor at work.
When Hitchcock and general manager Scott Howson decided to give Nash the captain's "C" late last season, they knew Nash wouldn't be a vocal leader. That's not his nature.
"I couldn't one day start screaming and yelling," Nash said. "That wouldn't be real."
But Howson and Hitchcock also knew it wasn't a decision to take lightly, especially for a franchise in such a fragile state. The previous captain, Adam Foote, had bolted for Colorado at the trade deadline only weeks earlier, and the dressing room was hanging in the balance.
Hitchcock spent lots of time talking with Nash about the intricacies and big-picture tasks of a captain, and how those duties could be made to fit with Nash's personality.
"For me, (the captaincy) has helped Rick elevate his game," Hitchcock said. "It has allowed him to really understand the impact of his play on the rest of the players.
"The big thing to me is, he's not waiting for the tempo of the game to be dictated anymore. He's going out and grabbing it. He's dictating it for us rather than responding to the opponent. And that's huge. That's what a leader does."
The Blue Jackets endured a massive roster overhaul last summer. When they return to play Tuesday against Detroit, there will be 10 players on the active roster who weren't with the team last season.
The newcomers express amazement at watching Nash operate as a teammate compared with playing against him a handful of times.
Center Jason Williams, acquired in a recent trade with the Atlanta Thrashers, is still in the early stages of awe.
"The way he handles the puck and the way he can take it to the net, it's not like any other player in the league," Williams said.
"To see it firsthand and be on the same team he's a very special player and he carries this team. He's not the most vocal guy, but he leads with his example and work ethic."A first taste
Nash is now a regular at All-Star Games. It's always exciting to be part of the gala, he said, but nothing can match the nervous electricity of the first game he attended, in 2004.
"The shoe is on the other foot now," Nash said. "I'm one of the guys who helps the younger guys feel welcomed."
But there is one line missing on Nash's resume, one dressing room conversation this weekend in which he can't participate.
The Blue Jackets have yet to qualify for the playoffs.That's hardly a knock on Nash, who had never before been surrounded with the necessary NHL talent to make a playoff run.
But to many in the hockey world, leading a team to the postseason is the measure of a man. So it could be considered the next rung on Nash's ladder, the next notch as the bar -- set so high, so early -- gets pushed even higher.
"We've got a chance to win every single night now," Nash said. "I think that's all you can ask for from a team. We know we have it now."

I do not intend this post to be an endorsement for or against Proposition 8 rather to raise some issues as to how the church involves itself in issues like the one surrounding Proposition 8.
The Proposition
Proposition 8 is an initiative on the 2008 California General Election Ballot. If passed it would force an amendment to the California Constitution to include the statement "only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California."
"Prop. 8 is About Preserving Marriage; It's Not an Attack on the Gay Lifestyle. Proposition 8 doesn't take away any rights or benefits from gays or lesbians in domestic partnerships. Under California law, "domestic partners shall have the same rights, protections and benefits" as married spouses. (Family Code §297.5.) There are no exceptions. Proposition 8 will not change this." (This is from "Protect Marriage – Yes on 8" Campaign)
The Position
There is a great deal of heat surrounding the proposition and the Constitutional amendment. I just watched a half hour video mailed to the church free of charge from AFA (You can watch the video at American Family Association) calling on churches to inform their congregations to register and to vote for Proposition 8. The video was full of clips from homosexual "marriages" performed in courthouses soon after the California Supreme Court ruled that Proposition 22 (passed in 2000 by California voters) was unconstitutional and opened the door for gay marriage in California. It also made it clear that it was the duty of every pastor to get the word out to their congregations to register to vote and to vote yes on Proposition 8.
The Problem
The problems raised by the amendment and the PR campaign are numerous and regardless of your position, conversation on the process is a must. Political rhetoric has its own rules and agendas. When the church gets pulled into the "silly season" process, we need to behave in a way that reflects our high calling, and avoid falling into the utilitarian methodology of "winning" elections at the cost of integrity and truth.
- The video uses imagery that is inflammatory. I counted at least 6 images of gay "marriages" where the kiss was the image used to highlight the message. I see how strategically this was the appealing video bite necessary. Appealing to emotion is effective, but not typically our best effort. This is clearly done to incite people to vote against this "abomination." Again, language that is inflammatory and divisive is not to characterize our appeal as the church. Religious posturing for the camera is not holy. It only communicates the message: We are better than gays.
- The video used the Civil Rights Movement as a foundation for exhorting pastors involvement in the movement, apparently not seeing the inherent contradiction in that analogy. We are not the oppressed minority in this battle. We are the majority, we have history and strength of numbers on our side and no one is being restricted in their rights to marry, on our "side." Playing the victim in this argument is absurd.
- The whole movement is based on the premise that "marriage" is at risk in this election. This too is false. Marriage is not at risk. Marriage is foundational to human existence, and this truth is self evident. Opposition to "marriage" is fringe and peripheral activity. Sometimes those voices may scream, but they are never taken seriously. The sky is falling strategy is beneath the church.
- At issue is not marriage, its viability or sanctity, rather this is now a battle between the religious and the secular communities. Much of the power of the Homosexual agenda is fueled by vociferous religious opposition to it. Is it possible that we have made more of this than we should have? Sometimes, the nonsensical should simply be ignored, which in effect becomes the strongest argument.
My Response
I don't believe that homosexuality is a viable, satisfying lifestyle.
But I don't need the Bible to tell me that. Most people (believers and unbelievers alike) would affirm the statement that "homosexuality is not a viable or satisfying lifestyle." Most homosexuals would reluctantly affirm that statement. It is simple observation and deduction that tells us that homosexuality is aberrant, minority behavior. It cannot sustain humanity. Heterosexuality is a superior relationship from a purely naturalistic perspective, hence, gay people desire to adopt children or lesbians will allow for a sexual encounter or artificial insemination to have children. It doesn't take special revelation to figure that out.
If you have listened to any of the wording in some of these gay marriage ceremonies, it is rather comical. I pronounce you husband and wife has turned into husband and husband which has turned into I pronounce you spouse and spouse. This distortion of language is further elucidation on the confusion of definition inherent in "gay marriage."
But stop a moment and think about it. The desire that gays have to be married is a tacit concession to the superiority of heterosexuality. Marriage is superior to non-marriage; marriage is de facto a heterosexual union; therefore, my desire to be married is an admission of the deficiency of being gay! Our "enemies" are desirous of something that we have! There is no better foundation for speaking truth to people.
It is obvious that marriage is in fact a relationship between a man and a woman. Homosexual relationships can be loving, monogamous (?), caring, loyal, encouraging etc. but they are not marriages. Even if our culture ultimately concedes and redefines "marriage" in America, the church can still define marriage appropriately. And we may need to pay a price for that definition, oh well. It won't be the first time we will have to say: It is better to obey God than man.
The Church's Illicit Marriage to Politics
But since we have drawn the church into the argument, it no longer is simple. The clear issues of nature are now being ignored and the issue becomes about gay rights, and their right to not be "oppressed" by the church. Rights that they appropriately and already have under the constitution. In taking this political stance we have elevated the issue inappropriately, and we have muddied the true message of the church.
We don't live in a Christian nation. We live in a pluralistic society. There are different people in America with different world views. And we have died fighting for that freedom, the freedom that people can disagree with us, to their eternal doom. The church and the state are distinct institutions, and God has purpose for both of them. My advice to the church is to keep those distinctions clear so that we fulfill our call and stewardship to God. Our stewardship is the gospel. The State's stewardship is the sword. We need to get our hands off the sword.
So the question becomes: how does the church change culture? How does the church deal with a changing culture? The church has felt less effective in impacting culture, and we have turned to the political process for assistance. We have attempted to change those in bondage by exerting our will as the moral majority. It didn't and doesn't work. It won't work here. We won't be more moral, more Christian, or closer to a better society on November 5 with a Constitutional Amendment defining marriage. We will feel like we have won, but in reality we will have gained nothing. The church doesn't change culture by winning elections. Taking a "strong stand" for marriage in the political arena will not strengthen marriage in the church, or make it more sacred.
Unbelievers are in bondage to sin, and are unable to deliver themselves from this bondage. The only hope for sinners in bondage to sin is the freedom that comes from liberating presence of the Spirit making effective and efficient the work of the cross and resurrection, causing a new creation. I would place homosexuality in the broader category of bondage to sin. Sinful thinking, sinful behavior, sinful lifestyles are only changed by the Holy Spirit. That is the message of the church.
The Solution
Live the Gospel. There is no better argument for the viability and sanctity of marriage than good and Godly marriages

Companies raise capital in various forms of debt, equity or both. The issuance of conventional debt or the sale of common stock does not normally present complex accounting issues. However, when debt and equity are mixed in a single transaction, when equity instruments become more complex than simple common stock, when transactions take on characteristics of both debt and equity, or when certain instruments or embedded features within debt and equity instruments have characteristics of derivatives, the accounting can become overwhelming.
This section addresses equity-linked transactions (ELT) that are not employee stock-based compensation arrangements or stock-based compensation paid to non-employees for which the goods and/or services have not been delivered. Those situations have special accounting rules that will be addressed separately on this site. An ELT can come in a variety of forms and is generally designed to enhance the potential return to the investor while lowering the cash costs of the financing to the company. Typical ELT instruments include (this is not an exhaustive list):
- Debt (bonds, debentures, promissory notes, etc.) issued together with detachable warrants for preferred and/or common stock;
- Conventional convertible debt;
- Unconventional convertible debt; and,
- Convertible preferred stock with debt-like features.
There are as many types of instruments and features as there are lawyers and investment bankers to conceive them. As these financings have become more complex, the accounting standards have grown in volume and complexity in an attempt to keep pace. The standards are often written in a way that the FASB hopes will address all possible existing and future issues that could arise. As a result, the standards are often vague and nearly always very difficult to understand. This section will shed some light on the practical application of the standards to ELTs and provide a road map to analyzing an instrument or embedded feature.
The general areas of accounting addressed in this section include: treatment of instruments with characteristics of both debt and equity, freestanding derivatives, embedded derivatives and beneficial conversion features. You are welcome to use this site as a visitor. The site is designed to provide a logical decision process and guidance at each step. However, if you wish to save your analysis as a project for future editing or printing, please register. Registration is free. So why not?
Caveat: This section is not intended to be a comprehensive analysis of derivatives. This section does address derivatives, but only in the context of ELTs. Other sections of this site go into other areas of derivative accounting, including hedge accounting, in detail.

How to Make a Lathe Chuck Mount
You can make a lathe chuck mount yourself using a few tools and a little ingenuity. This job will require the use of several machine shop tools, so check the materials needed list to make sure that you have everything you will need before beginning this project.
Step 1- Measure Your Spindle Nose
Using your thread micrometer, or possibly a 3-wire setup, measure the diameter, length, and length of thread on the spindle nose. Also measure the diameter of the spindle collar.
Step 2-Work With Your Backing Plate Blank
Now, you can either weld up a plate and bar stock to make the backing plate blank or purchase a cast iron blank from Enco or MSC. Or if you are really ambitious, you can start with a billet of stock of the appropriate size and cut it down. The easiest method would be to purchase the blank, the cast iron also helps with speed. Use the Machinery's Handbook to determine the spindle-thread root diameter and grab the chuck-side of the blank in a 3 or 4 jaw chuck and bore a hole front-to-back through the center of the blank. Now without removing the backing plate, cut the internal thread to specification by finishing the thread you began with the lathe with your tap. Bore the threads out to form the internal surface that will face the smooth part of the spindle. This should be close, but not too tight.
Step 3- Facing the Backing Plate
Take a facing cut on the face of the backing plate that will bear against the spindle collar. Then take another facing cut on the large diameter plate that will ultimately bolt to the chuck's back. This is the side that people will see. Remove the backing plate from the holding device and remove the holding device from the spindle. Now thread the backing plate onto the spindle. It should go on smooth and then bottom out at the spindle collar. Take a truing cut across the face of the chuck plate, this is the face you will mount the chuck on.
Step 4- Finishing Up the Mount
Cut the required step into the face of the chuck plate to fit into the recess on your chuck. Make sure that it is a good fit so you will not have any excessive runout. Now, cut the diameter of the backing plate down to meet the diameter of the chuck. Then, place the chuck on the backing plate and use transfer punches to mark the hole locations for the hold down bolts. If you prefer you can also use a rotary table, or bolt-pattern coordinate set calculated using the aforementioned Machinery's Handbook. Then drill and tap the holes to match the supplied bolts. Using a torque wrench, uniformly torque the bolts holding the chuck to the backing plate.
Now place your newly mounted chuck on the lathe spindle, chuck a piece of quality round bar stock and measure the runout a few inches out from the front of the chuck jaws. It should run within 0.002 TIR at worst, and probably 0.001 at best.

Looking at a Painting:Maria from Sterne, Joseph Wright
PUBLISHED: 14:48 28 April 2010 | UPDATED: 17:06 20 February 2013
Elizabeth Jackaman looks at a painting ...Maria from Sterne, 1781 by Joseph Wright of Derby (1734–97)
This sweet young girl sits in a soft rural setting holding her flute, with her little dog at her feet looking up at her faithfully. This should be a happy, wholesome country scene, but the pose of this gentle figure suggests sadness: she sits on a grassy bank with her elbow on her crossed knee, her head resting on her hand as she looks dreamily ahead seeing nothing of her idyllic surroundings. Perhaps the autumnal tones and the gathering clouds give an extra hint of gloom: the good days and bright skies of summer are passing.
How brilliantly an artist can paint a mood into a picture. Joseph Wrights portraits in landscape settings are familiar to us, his sitters exuding health and radiance, wearing fine clothing in rich colours materials that are a hallmark of his style and which suggest the comfort and wealth of his sitters. This painting, though, is not a straightforward portrait, but a scene from literature. Maria is a sad character from Laurence Sternes A Sentimental Journey (published 1768). She has lost her mind after being abandoned by her lover, and while roaming in the countryside is met by Parson Yorick on his travels through France. Novels and poetry full of acute feelings were popular in the late 18th century. In painting a tragic heroine Wright was following this contemporary trend in which melancholy figures find solace in nature. Maria sits here with her pipe upon which she had played sweet, plaintive melodies. Her very position denotes melancholy, known and often copied from the German painter Albrecht Drers engraving, Melancholia I of 1514; the mourning pose also derives from ancient tomb relief scupture.
Although presented prominently and life-sized, Marias form is painted in soft focus, with no hard edges or strong outlines. Her face is in complete profile against grey cloud, lips slightly parted; she gazes vacantly from clear blue eyes. Her flesh has the cool, precious texture of a china doll. Her hair is piled up, not high as in the grand fashion of the time, but held neatly by a greenish ribbon, while a loose strand falls over her shoulder in a whispy ringlet. Marias plain, classical dress was stylish for day wear and reminds us of the grandeur of ancient statuary (funerary reliefs again). A drape flows down her long, elegant back and over her thigh; its pale green, like her sash, is a colour denoting tristesse. She holds her recorder and her dogs light leash, both clearly depicted against the white dress. The little Bolognese dog, Silvio, perhaps Marias only friend, looks up sympathetically at his pitiful mistress.
The trees in the countryside are still in full leaf. Immediately behind Maria the bark of two strong trunks has silvery highlights, similar to that of silver birch, but apart from that every tree is quite non-specific (Sterne states that Maria sits at the foot of a poplar, but I am unconvinced of the artists faithfulness to the text.) The clusters of golden-brown leaves are painted in a blotchy manner, thick impasto, in contrast to the girls smooth hair and skin; the lower leaves seem almost fungal in their presentation. Large plant foliage grows in the foreground, tempting the viewer to identify it: I had the idea it could be butterburr, but generally, as in the type of trees here, Wrights oil paintings do not demonstrate botanical precision. Opposite this a rippling stream is just visible: A small brook ran at the foot of the tree. Wright has followed Sternes description of Yoricks encounter with this sorrowful girl. Dashes of white paint draw attention to flickering light on the water. Rolling country in the distance is softened with haze, and the far background reaches the horizon in grey mist. A small area of light sky above gives some sense of optimism. On the whole the tonality is restrained and the figure of Maria blends with that colour harmony with no vivid contrasts.
Although this is not strictly a portrait, Wright needed a model for Maria. It is thought that Mrs Mary Bassano posed for him. She had married into a Derby family whose forebears were said to have come from Italy as musicians to the Court of Henry VIII. Maria was painted as a companion piece to Edwin from Dr Beatties Minstrel completed a few years earlier. Edwin is portrayed as a dreamy shepherd boy whose image is faithful to the poetic source (The Minstrel; or, the Progress of Genius, a long poem by Dr James Beattie, 1771). Edwin was sold to a patron from Wakefield, but he did not buy Maria, which remained in Wrights possession until he died.
Although it is sad that this delightfully complementary pair of pictures have never hung permanently together, it is a pleasure for us to see Maria so well placed in the dining room at Pickfords House, Friargate in Derby.

Kerry Group issues half year results with focus on nutrition and wellbeing tech drivers
09 Aug 2019 --- Irish dairy cooperative Kerry Group has issued its financial results for the half year ended 30 June 2019. The company's nutrition and wellbeing technology portfolio exhibited a strong performance in the period, as demand for products with nutritional attributes was noted to have accelerated across the globe. Growth was observed in customized solutions incorporating in particular Kerry's fermented ingredients, broad protein portfolio, probiotics, fiber systems, botanicals and natural extracts. During the period, the Group completed three acquisitions at a total cost of €327.2 million (US$366.5 million) including Ariake U.S.A. and Southeastern Mills' North American coatings and seasonings business (SEM).
Heightened consumer pricing and uncertainty impacted market volume growth rates in some developed markets, notes Edmond Scanlon, CEO of Kerry. However, developing market growth was reported at 9.1 percent, with Asia Pacific Middle East and Africa (APMEA) developing markets being the main driver. In June, the group officially inaugurated a state-of-the-art, €20 million (US$22.4 million) production facility in India, marking its fourth significant investment in the country.
The Group reported that revenue increased by 10.7 percent to €3.6 billion (US$4 billion), reflecting volume growth of 3.3 percent, neutral pricing, contribution from acquisitions of 4.7 percent, and a favorable translation currency impact of 2.7 percent. Foodservice exhibited a growth of 5.3 percent despite some softness in the company's North American market at the beginning of the year.
Kerry's trading margin increased by 20bps, reflecting growth driven by operating leverage, portfolio enhancement, efficiencies, impact of foreign currency and acquisitions, partially offset by Brexit risk management costs, investments for growth and increased net investment on the KerryExcel program.
On 30 June 2019, the company's net debt was listed at €1.9 billion (US$2.1 billion). This increase of €294.7 million (US$330.2 million) relative to the December 2018 net debt of €1.7 million (US$1.8 million) reflects cash flow generated offset by investment in acquisitions and the dividends paid in the period. In June, the Group agreed a new five year €1.1 billion (US$1.2 billion) revolving credit facility which extends the maturity profile of the Group's available credit facilities.
Americas region
Reported revenue in the region increased by 19.1 percent to €1.6 billion (US$1.79) primarily reflecting volume growth, foreign currency translation and significant contribution from acquisitions of 9.9 percent. North America volume growth was significant, while market volume growth rates softened as heightened consumer pricing impacted overall consumption in the period. Latin America reportedly exhibited good growth, particularly in Mexico, with solid performances in Brazil and Central America.
Kerry's Meat EUM performance in the Americas region was complemented by the acquisition of Southeastern Mills (SEM) in the period, attending to consumer demands for new regional flavors, cleaner labels, natural shelf-life preservation and plant-based alternatives.
The group's Snacks EUM delivered growth, particularly in Latin America. The Dairy EUM benefitted from the ongoing evolution of the ice cream and desserts category towards premiumization, lower-calorie and plant-based offerings. While the Beverage EUM was impacted by a softer start to the year in Foodservice, it benefitted from a number of product offerings utilizing Ganeden probiotics and Wellmune immunity-enhancing technologies. The Meals EUM was impacted by softness, particularly in the ambient and chilled categories.
The company's global Pharma EUM exhibited growth in excipients in North America. The recently acquired Fleischmann's (FVC) business was noted to have performed well. Kerry also completed the acquisition of Ariake U.S.A. in the period. These acquisitions were noted to further enhance Kerry's clean label technology portfolio, which the Group plans to leverage in meeting increased demands across a broader range of applications.
Reported revenue in the region increased by 2.5 percent to €718 million (US$805 million), primarily reflecting volume growth. Beverage EUM achieved "strong broad-based growth," particularly in Foodservice, as customers enhanced their beverage offerings across their menus, with a number of "better for you" and seasonal product launches incorporating Kerry's botanicals, natural extracts and sugar reduction technologies.
Kerry's Meat EUM in Europe was boosted by the group's multi-texture coating systems, which deliver "new sensorial taste experiences," in addition to a number of successful cleaner label launches. Business development was also achieved in plant-based meat alternatives, as Kerry's offering was enhanced by the recent JV with Ojah.
Dairy EUM was impacted by softer demand in the ice cream category during the period. International dairy markets were relatively stable in the period, reflecting less volatility in global supply and demand dynamics.
Confectionary EUM achieved good growth through a number of local novel taste LTOs across the region, while Snacks EUM saw a number of new launches with new "authentic world flavors."
APMEA Region
Reported revenue in the region increased by 13.3 percent to €608m (US$681.2 million), primarily reflecting 9.6 percent volume growth and the contribution from business acquisitions.
The group continued to selectively deploy the Kerry business model on a country-by-country basis in the period.
Kerry's Meat EUM in the region saw launches of innovations across both Foodservice and Retail customers to meet key consumer preferences for local authentic taste, value, food safety and home delivery.
Growth in the group's Beverage EUM in the region was underpinned by a number of successful launches into nutritional beverages and a range of foodservice applications. The branded DaVinci range enjoyed expansion into independent distributors.
Snacks EUM in APMEA delivered strong growth, with innovation centred around the localization of Western taste profiles incorporating both sweet and savory technologies.
Kerry focused on expanding its capacity and processing capabilities in the region. The group's strategic expansion in China was reported to have progressed well, as upgrades were made at the recently acquired SIAS facility to service the company's Greater Beijing region, while further expansions were made at its Nantong facility. The Group also opened a new facility in Tumkur, India, which will serve the company's expanding South West Asia market,and investments were made in expanding capacities in the Middle East region, further to the group's acquisition of Oman-based AATCO at the end of 2018.

Weather Warming Up

Let me introduce our Lizard family. We have two of them one smaller than the other and much shyer. The one in the photos is slightly larger and more out going, he stands still and waves as well as opening his mouth. Any one going past our place would think I'm nuts as I wave back, and a large person waving to a 6inch lizard in the grass would look strange. Thanks to Robin and Gordon Sharp

Overview of Radiation Effects on Emerging Non-Volatile Memory Technologies
MetadataShow full item record
In this paper we give an overview of radiation effects in emergent, non-volatile memory technologies. Investigations into radiation hardness of resistive random access memory, ferroelectric random access memory, magneto-resistive random access memory, and phase change memory are presented in cases where these memory devices were subjected to different types of radiation. The obtained results proved high radiation tolerance of studied devices making them good candidates for application in radiation-intensive environments.

Call To The Bar: Good vibes and high energy at Lighthouse Lounge
With a slogan that says "Lighthouse Is The Right House," it is little wonder that Lighthouse Lounge and Grill in Salem on the outskirts of Runaway Bay, St Ann, is a favourite spot of many.
One such person is Monique Earle, who was at the lounge when THE STAR visited yesterday.
"It's very nice here, this is my only hangout spot because I really enjoy it here," she said. "Good music, good food, good vibes, the whole Lighthouse family, they're great. Good people."
Owner and operator Ricardo McIntosh and his wife Ingrid have been running the Lighthouse for two years now and have established the location as a must-go-to place.
"We're giving thanks that business is okay and it's getting better as time goes by," McIntosh said.
Customers enjoy a wide variety of beverages at Lighthouse, but, as customary, there are favourite drinks that some are attached to.
"As you can see the bottle represents itself," McIntosh said, referring to a huge image of Wray and Nephew White Overproof Rum painted on the wall of the property.
"We have a lot of really dedicated rum drinkers, some would say they drink religiously. Then we have the Appleton people, people who like Colbeck as well, a lot of people like the VX, the smoother blend of Appleton," said McIntosh
But Lighthouse is not only about the beverages, it is a totally fun spot, with a range of activities to suit customers' every taste.
On Wednesday, it is the uproarious karaoke, Friday is 'Curry Goat Fridays', while on Sunday, it is Fun Day with cricket, dominoes, ludo, darts, pool, and other fun activities, with bingo set for every last Sunday of the month.
Lighthouse is also a favourite events venue with parties and stage shows being a regular on the calendar.
"Yeah, man, we have a lot of events going on right through the year. The place generates a lot of energy so if you walk through the place, you just feel the energy," McIntosh said. "So people who come here can expect a nice, peaceful vibes, good conversation, good quality people, positive energy with positive people."
Bartender Kimona, just two days on the job, is also dedicated to ensuring Lighthouse remains the favourite spot of many.
"At Lighthouse you can expect good customer service," Kimona said with a smile.

A little over a year ago in the McKinley Park area, an asphalt plant was built without alerting or informing the residents of the community. This sparked controversy and backlash towards the company, as its residents felt this was not an environmentally friendly addition to the neighborhood. Receiving media attention from the Chicago Tribune, this group of residents spoke out against the establishment of the plant. Here we are a year later and the plant's application for the IEPA has been denied, after estimating the plant had the potential to emit more than 10 times the acceptable amount of toxic particulate matter. If anyone is interested in acting upon this issue we are seeking to make some change in the community.
