Indian Woman's Arm Cut Off By Saudi Employer: 'Unacceptable', Indian External Affairs Minister Tweets
Oct 9, 2015
NEW DELHI: External affairs minister Sushma Swaraj on Friday expressed outrage over reports of a Saudi sponsor chopping off an Indian maid's hand.
"We are very much disturbed over brutal manner in which Indian lady has been treated in Saudi Arabia. This is unacceptable. We have taken this up with Saudi authorities. Our embassy is in touch with the victim," Sushma said.
Kashturi Munirathinam, working as a domestic help in Saudi Arabia, has alleged that her right hand was chopped off by her employer when she tried to escape harassment and torture.
Saudi Arabian officials have arrested a Saudi woman.
Officials with the Indian embassy in Riyadh took up the case with Saudi authorities at the highest level after learning that the employer of Kasthuri Munirathnam severed the maid's right arm after she complained to officials that the family she was working for ill-treated her.
Kasthuri was in a critical condition but has stabilised and doctors are treating her in Kingdom Hospital in Riyadh.
Anil Nautiyal, first secretary (labour) at the Indian embassy in Riyadh, said the mission is pursuing the case with the Saudi Arabian ministry of foreign affairs.
Kasthuri's son Mohan told TOI from Vellore that his mother Kasthuri sustained severe injuries in the attack by the woman of the house, whose name Saudi authorities have withheld.
A video on a social networking site shows Kasthuri in tears as she recalls the brutal attack. "I pleaded with the lady not to harm me but she kicked me, punched me and cut off my arm," she said. "I want to go back home. Please help me."
Mohan, a mason, said his mother left for Saudi Arabia two years ago to support the family, which consists of an ailing husband, three daughters and a son, even though he tried to persuade her against going to that country. Kasthuri first worked for a family in Damam and later moved to the house in Riyadh.
Malala Trust-Funded Enrolment Drive Launched in Pakistan
Oct 9, 2015
ISLAMABAD: A $7 million programme, which aims to enrol at least 50,000 out-of-school-girls from 12 districts across the country over the course of three years, was launched on Thursday.
The Girls' Right to Education Programme, which will be implemented through NGOs and civil society organisations across the four provinces, is funded by the Malala Funds-in-Trust. The trust was launched in February 2014 by the government of Pakistan and the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO) to support better access, improved quality and safe learning environments for girls in hard-to-reach areas.
Speaking at the launch, UNESCO's Vibeke Jensen said target districts were chosen in collaboration with provincial governments and demonstrate the highest rates of gender disparity in the country. Jensen said the programme will target primary school age girls, parents, schools, teachers and district education officials.
Programme aims to enrol 50,000 schoolgirls in 12 districts
The programme, she said, was created after detailed discussions with the government, civil society and schoolgirls themselves and features strategies developed according to provincial needs and local contexts.
The project aims – among other things – to mobilise school management committees, support teachers, improve physical infrastructure such as boundary walls and strengthen district officials to facilitate schools, support planning and education, and design strategies to target girls.
Speaking at the launch, Education Minister Mohammad Balighur Rehman said that the government's resolve was to ensure 100 per cent enrolment in primary and secondary schools and reiterated the resolve to make education free and compulsory.
The minister said that the programme would pay special attention to border areas, particularly the Durand Line, where war-torn districts are facing unique challenges. The target districts for the programme are Muzaffarabad, Hattian and Neelum in AJK, Jafferabad and Ziarat in Baluchistan, Mohmand Agency in Fata, Gilgit and Hunza Nagar in Gilgit-Baltistan, Neelor and Tarnol in Islamabad, Kohistan in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP), Muzaffargarh in Punjab and Tharparkar in Sindh.
The minister said the programme was being carried out in districts where there is no education infrastructure and said that with time, more programmes would be initiated to operate alongside this. He also said that provincial district education departments had been taken on board.
Balochistan MPA Raheela Durrani said that Balochistan had fallen behind in education standards.She revealed that of the 22,000 villages in Balochistan, 10,000 were without schools and there were only 11,500 schools in the province.
"There is the ghost schools issue, the ghost teachers issue, the ghosts students issue; all education is a ghost in Baluchistan," she said.
Many of the speakers also spoke about girls' education with regards to sustainable development goals (SDGs) set by the UN this year. UNESCO Director General Irina Bokova, in a video statement, said that the new SDGs recognised that access to education was a human right.
Saudi Women Candidates Can Use Social Media
09 October 2015
JEDDAH — The Ministry of Municipal and Rural Affairs will allow women candidates in municipal elections to use social media platforms. The ministry also said through its Twitter account that the General Committee for Municipal Elections will allow female candidates to use newspapers to carry out their election campaigns conforming to Shariah controls as well as to set up election headquarters. The candidates will be granted licenses for various types of election campaigns. The tweet from the ministry indicated that women candidates have the right to obtain licenses to run election campaigns directed at both male and female voters.
Women's Campuses Host Civic Election Awareness Campaign in Saudi Arabia
9 October 2015
RIYADH: The women's campuses of King Saud University (KSU) and Princess Nora bint Abdulrahman University (PNU), the largest university for women in the world, hosted the "Your vote makes a difference" campaign ahead of the upcoming civic elections.
"The awareness campaign was jointly organized by the Women's Renaissance Institution and the King Khalid Charitable Foundation, where they set up a number of booths to give important information about the municipal elections," KSU's media department said Thursday.
"The awareness campaign was conducted in light of the political developments Saudi women are witnessing, where they have the right to vote and to contest as candidates in the municipal elections," the official pointed out.
Commenting on the program hosted on the KSU women's campus, Einas Al-Eisa, vice rector for female student affairs, expressed her pride in this important step, saying: "The municipal elections are considered a turning point where women will participate as candidates and voters."
She also emphasized women's efficiency and capability in all fields.
"KSU is proud to be the oldest and largest higher education facility for Saudi women," she noted.
Commenting on the program hosting, Ibthal Al-Zaml, director of finance resources and public relations at the Women's Renaissance Institution, expressed her deep gratitude for KSU women's campus' effective contribution to the awareness of this important political event.
Due to the set age of voters at 18 years, the Women's Renaissance Institution targeted universities such as KSU and PNU, she said.
PNU also hosted an awareness campaign to educate and encourage voters ahead of the forthcoming elections and the awareness booths received large numbers of attendees.
The campaign seeks to improve the level of election skills among community members. It also seeks to illustrate the criteria of female and male candidates, and the duties of municipal councils in the community working for a vibrant Saudi society.
The municipal elections will be held between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. on Dec. 12 and the results will be announced the following day.
Enable Saudi women to start their own businesses
09 October 2015
I do not know how large the budget of the Human Resources Development Fund (HRDF) is. However, the SR2,400 per person fee paid annually into the fund means that it has billions of riyals in revenue. The fee is imposed on the private sector and the revenue is meant to be used to reduce unemployment.
However, the question is: What has the HRDF done to solve the problem of unemployment? I have always been against giving financial support to able-bodied people who can work because the job opportunities available to men outnumber the opportunities available to women, especially in the private sector. The HRDF should implement programs that help women start their own businesses instead of giving them financial support.
The fund should establish a department that offers consultation services and financial facilities to unemployed women. I strongly believe that helping people start their own business will eliminate unemployment and reduce pressure on the government when it comes to creating job opportunities for both men and women.
This should be the HRDF's strategic goal. Simply put, the fund should provide loans to support projects and programs that allow people to start their own businesses. People who take loans should pay them back to the fund and be given 10 to 30 percent off if they pay the money back on time. Giving loans is much better than giving people money that they are not required to pay back.
The strategies for supporting solutions to the problem of unemployment should be radically changed. How can we expect to end unemployment without financial support and without helping unemployed men and women start their own businesses?
The fund should give special attention to productive families. The importance of setting up a specific department to help unemployed women start their own businesses cannot be stressed enough. It is also important that procedures for granting loans are made easy and fast, not hard and slow.
Niqab Should Not Be Election Issue, Say Christian, Muslim and Hindu Leaders of Canada
Oct 08, 2015
Leaders from different religions gathered in St. John's on Thursday and were united in their belief that wearing of the Niqab should not be so much attention during the Canadian federal election campaigns.
The Niqab has become a divisive federal election topic in recent weeks, with the Conservative government vowing to fight a Federal Court of Appeal ruling saying women shouldn't have to remove Niqabs, which cover their faces during citizenship ceremonies.
Leaders from the Anglican, Catholic, Muslim and Hindu religions all took part in the meeting on Thursday, organized by the Religious Social Action Coalition.
While the focus was on poverty reduction, the Niqab issue wasn't far from their minds.
Muhammed Nazir, with the Muslim Association of Newfoundland and Labrador, doesn't think the Niqab should be part of anyone's campaign.
"It's really an issue which I think certain politicians feel they can make some points and gain some ground," he said after the meeting.
"That's up to them, whether the public will support them or not. As far as we're concerned, it's totally a non-issue."
Rami Wadhwa
Rami Wadhwa hopes that Canadians will get used to the Niqab the same way they did with Sikh turbans in the past. (CBC)
Rami Wadhwa, a local Sikh leader, remembers when turbans were once a point of controversy in Canada.
He said back then communities worked together to understand each other — and that may be what's needed now if people take issue with the Niqab.
"I had some incidences where there was some name-calling and everything, but I think things have changed," he said.
"We have worked hard to do the exposing, to see who we are and what we do, and we don't have any problems."
Father Paul Lundrigan
Father Paul Lundrigan thinks there is a double standard with people accepting the attire of Christian sisters but not the wearing of the Niqab. (CBC)
Father Paul Lundrigan, with the Roman Catholic Church, is also surprised every time the Niqab issue comes up.
He made the point that Canadians generally had no problem with Catholic nuns being mostly covered and doesn't think there is any difference with women wearing Niqabs or any other religious garb.
"I'm not too sure exactly what the issue is," he said.
"From my own faith tradition, there were large numbers of women who wore something very similar to the Niqab and burqa, covered head to toe in black — the sisters."
Petition in IHC asks Nawaz to raise Dr Aafia issue with Obama
Oct 9, 2015
ISLAMABAD: The Islamabad High Court (IHC) on Friday sought comments from the government over a petition asking for Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif to raise the issue of releasing Dr Aafia Siddiqui during his upcoming visit to the United States.
Aafia, a Pakistani neuroscientist, is serving an 86-year prison sentence in US for attacking American soldiers.
Justice Noorul Haq Qureshi of the IHC heard the petition filed by Aafia's sister Dr Fauzia Siddiqui.
The petitioner's counsel took the stance that at the time when Nawaz was not the prime minister; he had written a letter to the then prime minister Yousuf Raza Gilani, asking him to take steps for the release of Aafia.
The petitioner requested that the court direct the premier to raise issue of Aafia's release with President Obama during his visit to Washington on Oct 22.
President Obama's permission should be sought for the grant of access to Aafia's councillor, the petitioner said.
He added that permission for Aafia's family to meet the imprisoned doctor should also be sought.
Know more: Dr Aafia Siddiqui sentenced to 86 years in jail
After hearing the arguments, the court issued notices to the Prime Minister House and the foreign and interior ministries, seeking comments on the petition. The hearing was subsequently adjourned.
After a childhood split between Pakistan and Zambia, Aafia Siddiqui travelled as a teenager to Texas, where her brother lived, before studying at Boston's prestigious Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and doing a PhD in neuroscience at Brandeis University.
Siddiqui's story, one of the most intriguing of the "war on terror" era, began in March 2003 when Al Qaeda number three and alleged main 9/11 architect Khalid Sheikh Mohammed was arrested in Karachi.
Soon after his arrest, Siddiqui — suspected of Al Qaeda links by the US — disappeared along with her three children in Karachi.
Five years later she turned up in Afghanistan, where she was arrested by local forces in the restive southeastern province of Ghazni.
According to US court papers, she was carrying two kilos of sodium cyanide hidden in moisturiser bottles, along with plans for chemical weapons and New York's Brooklyn Bridge and Empire State Building.
The Afghans handed her to US forces who began questioning her. During her interrogation she grabbed a rifle and opened fire, according to witnesses, at US agents while screaming "Death to America" and "I want to kill Americans".
Take a look: Dr Aafia denies shooting at Americans
The soldiers escaped unhurt, but she was injured.
From Afghanistan, Siddiqui was put on trial in the US and sentenced in 2010 to 86 years for attempted murder — and not for any Al Qaeda links.

Ralph Rodgers and Percy Turner Circus collection
Scope and Content
The collection is comprised chiefly of Ralph Rodgers' circus memorabilia and materials related to circus model building. In addition to articles, newsletters, instructions, and photos on model building, Rodgers' own drawings, notes, and photographs are included in the papers. His correspondence with well-known circus performers such as Diamond Jim Parker and John Strong document his close ties to the circus world where he formed many long-lasting friendships. A small portion of the collection relates to Percy Turner, a friend of Ralph Rodgers who had his own circus for a brief time in the 1950s. Rodgers and Turner presumably met through John Strong, a well-known circus performer who had his own circus and is well-represented in this collection's ephemera.
As described in the biographical note on Ralph Rodgers, the large circus artifacts--the actual circuses-- were dismantled and divided up among Rodgers' sons and their families after his death. Fortunately, there are many photographs in this collection which document Rodgers' own miniature circuses as well as the circuses he worked with during the months that he "ran away to join the circus" in his fifties.

Biographical Note: Percy Turner
The Turner Brothers Circus (aka Turner Brothers Dog and Pony show) was created by Percy Turner in 1958. (There are Articles of Incorporation for the Turner Bros. Dog and Pony Show showing a date of June 5, 1959.)
Percy Turner was, by trade, a sign painter in the area of San Diego, California. He and his family had always wanted to have their own circus, so in 1959 they formed their own. They found a local "angel" who was willing to bankroll them. They leased the animals through some contact Turner had in the Paul Eagles Circus Luncheon Club up in Los Angeles. They had a lion, a tiger, two ocelots, an elephant, and several camels. There were clowns, acrobats, a high-wire artist, a dog act and horses, but the Turner family were the only Black members of the troupe. Percy and his wife Joy said that they had never had any Black applicants for jobs in their circus.
The Turners left their successful sign-painting business in Pacific Beach to tour the California coast and were widely successful with audiences. Unfortunately, they had no circus experience and the show was forced to close after they discovered their advance agent was skimming the profits. (Source: Sarasota Herald-Tribune, 24 Feb 1998.) Percy Turner went back to sign painting and later lettered some trucks for Circus Vargas when they were in Southern California. Percy Turner kept hoping to find someone else who could provide the financial means to allow him to take out another circus, but his failing health and increased costs prevented him from ever touring again. And though the Turner Bros. Circus officially closed for good on July 4, 1959, Percy and Joy Turner continued to entertain their friends "circus-style"--erecting the cookhouse tent in the backyard for all their local fans, surrounded by the remnants of the dog and pony show that were in various states of repair around the sign shop. Percy Turner died in 1984.
Biographical Note: Ralph Rodgers
Ralph Rodgers, whose "day job" was as a gas service man for San Diego Gas & Electric, was an avid circus model builder and lifelong circus devotee. He spent his lifetime learning about the circus, following all the circuses--figuratively and later literally-- and becoming friends with many of the well-known circus performers and clowns of the day, many of whom were also model-builders.
Ralph Rodgers' wife, Mary Ann, was supportive of her husband's hobby and also worked with him and attended conventions with him. They had four sons: Patrick, Kevin, Michael, and John-- all of whom had model circuses named after them. The circuses were created in the Rodgers' backyard in El Cajon and reflected Ralph's desire to preserve the form and spirit of the circus during its heyday of the 1920s and 30s.
When Ralph Rodgers passed on in 2006, his sons tried for about a year to place the main Rodgers Bros. circus in a museum. They contacted all of the circus museums in the United States in addition to a couple of circus model museums, but could not generate any interest in their father's circuses. They speculate that one of the reasons may be the sheer number of circus model builders that existed at one time, although the numbers have dwindled like most hobby crafts have.
Michael Rodgers also mentioned that when he and his brothers were growing up, they visited many circus model builders conventions and saw many of the model circuses of their father's friends such as Jim Parker. Many of the models and circuses they saw were "picture perfect" and looked more factory manufactured than the circuses that Ralph Rodgers built out of chiefly "found" materials. Since he was a serviceman for the San Diego Gas and Electric Company, his job afforded him many opportunities to enter vacated homes to check the gas lines and also salvage materials that could be used to build his circuses. For example, the majority of the older circus wagons were constructed from wooden Venetian blinds. Rodgers built all his wagons and train cars from found wood; he also carved all his own circus people and most of the animals. He fashioned the wagon hardware and other parts from tin coffee cans. He would paint toothpaste tube caps, put wire handles on them, and--voila--water buckets. Every year for two weeks in the spring (rain or shine), Rodgers and his sons would set up the circus in the backyard for all the neighborhood kids, dogs, cats, etc. to enjoy and so, over time, the circus took on the look of a working circus. Though some model builders looked down on Rodgers' creations, the model builders who were also "real" circus people admired and appreciated how realistic the Rodgers circuses were.
When the Rodgers sons failed to find an appropriate museum or host for their father's circus, they chose to honor their father's wish-- which was to take it to the desert and burn it if no one wanted it as one complete circus. The circus filled a 10' x 24' storage unit and, while the family did not actually take it out to the desert and burn it, they met at the home of Michael Rodgers along with their nieces and nephews and divided up what they wanted to keep. Then they burned the rest of the stuff while toasting their father through the night, thus folding up the Big Top for the last time.

Language of Materials
The Ralph Rodgers and Percy Turner Circus Collection documents the collective interests of a circus model builder/ miniature circus owner and a real circus owner who became friends and whose circus memorabilia ended up with a mutual friend who donated them to USC. The collection contains ephemera, correspondence, photographs, books, records, costumes, and a large amount of circus model plans and drawings kept by Ralph Rodgers. A portion of the collection represents the history of the Percy Turner Circus, one of the first circuses owned by an African-American based in the southern California area.
Donated to USC by Duncan Smith in 2010. Duncan Smith was a friend of both Ralph Rodgers and Percy Turner.
Separated Materials
Six boxes of books were included in the donation of this collection. They have been separated from the archival materials to be catalogued individually, but kept together as a donor-based collection. They include both adult and children's books on circuses and circus-related topics.

Jeff Diamond knows one man's junk is another man's treasure
Jeff Diamond calls himself golf's undertaker.
But what he does with the game's shafts, heads and balls that most players would either drown or bury is truly death-defying.
Hey, we are not talking artifacts and memorabilia here. You bent the shaft over your knee when you sliced the ball over yonder. And if you ever found the ball later, it would probably have a big smile across the trademark.
Or maybe that set of irons Santa Claus brought you 20 years ago is just worn out, or those persimmon woods are simply old.

More:D'Angelo: Do not count Tiger Woods out when it comes to playing golf again
No, don't send them to recycling. Diamond will buy them, for cash even, and you won't believe what he can make with them. He'll send your old clubs to his shop in the Northwood section of West Palm Beach and if you ever see them again they will hardly be recognizable.
Here's a barstool, a door knocker, coat hooks, carving set, grip lamp, tee time clock, tables of many descriptions, and all sorts of lighting, home furnishings, bottle openers, belt buckles, sculptures, medallions and 2,300 paper towel holders.
Diamond has been recycling old golf clubs for close to 20 years, at least 100,000 clubs a year, he estimates. He primarily sells wholesale to gift shops across the country and at trade shows such as the PGA Merchandise Show staged annually in Orlando.
And since 2004 he has been among the hundreds of exhibitors on and off Washington Road in Augusta, Georgia during Masters week.
Since there were no spectators at the most recent Masters, in November, because of the coronavirus pandemic, Diamond and a longtime friend, Jupiter attorney Charlie White, came up with a new scheme:
"Since there will be no patrons at the Masters this year," they mused, "we will bring the Masters to the patrons."
With help from the Turtle Creek Club, where Charlie and his wife Susan have been members since 1996, Diamond displayed examples of his work over the 2020 Masters weekend, along with some of White's own collection of golf memorabilia. Hopefully, there will be even more to see at the 2021 Masters ... and on site again.
For information on Diamond's amazing efforts, go to firstname.lastname@example.com or call 561-379-9367.

Many of you are asking about my book. Who will benefit? Why should I read it? How many cases of books should I order (ok, maybe they are not asking that…YET!).
Information Strategies' Small Business Digest recently interviewed me to learn more about "EnergizeGrowth NOW: The Marketing Guide to a Wealthy Company. "These excerpts will give you some ideas on what motivated me to write the book and who will benefit the most from it.
1) How did you come up with the concept for the book? I realized that growth companies with 5-200 employees were struggling to incorporate their marketing strategy with their strategic plan. This process can be complicated, time-consuming and difficult to implement. I wanted to create a "how to" guide that was fresh, insightful, and practical.
2) How did you select the companies you profiled? I have been interviewing companies for 7 years. I look for CEOs who are lifelong learners, engaged in making the world better, committed to building a business worthy of selling or eventually exiting, and have a compelling story to share. That eliminated lots of companies.
3) How long did it take you to write it? 26 years of research and experience and 7 months of VERY focused writing time.
4) What is a growth company? An organization that has overcome the trials and tribulations of startup mode. The founders are probably earning a very good living. They have chosen to invest in growth (office space, employees, systems, legal support, technology, etc.) and have reaped rewards from those investments. However, they may also be facing a lot of stress due to the demands a growth company poses. While they have a steady stream of clients, a functioning infrastructure to deliver their products and services, and a desire to keep growing, they also have growing pains. These may show up in the form of burnt out employees or founders, declining customer service, poor cash flow, a lack of a succession plan, unexpected new competitors, and limited distribution channels.
5) Why would I want to have this book in my personal library? You will benefit from adding this book to your collection if:
- You own a startup company and aspire to be a growth company
- You are dissatisfied with the old definitions of wealth building—in your mind, something is "missing"
- You are in sales or marketing, and need a refresher on planning
- Your mindset around growth and planning is sabotaging your true potential
- You seek inspiration in a world hurting from the Enron, Adelphia, and Merrill Lynch level debacles. You see your business as a vehicle to make the world a better place. Getting rich is NOT your primary driver.
- You are a teacher or professor who wants to show others how to build a successful and wealthy business
- You're allergic to planning, yet your seat of the pants style of growing your business is no longer working.
- You are a proactive leader and like to stay abreast of the freshest new perspectives on strategy and wealth-building
- You're curious why Guy Kawasaki, Dr. Stephen Covey, and Marshall Goldsmith would choose to endorse my book.
- You are looking for proven planning tools that you can implement immediately.
7) How do you determine when a company has finally overcome its "start-up hurdles?" there are several clues. For example, I look for:
* a sustainable business model that can eventually be sold at a hefty multiple
* The founders have conquered their initial excitement phase of starting their business. In fact, they will have also overcome the frantic modes of operating (which happens after the initial startup phase).
* The owners feel more confident about themselves and the company's direction.
* Decisions are no longer solely based on emotions, cash flow and urgency. The owners are now balancing all options and become more deliberate in their actions.
* The business is generating a regular income
* The owners spend time with clients and their teams
* Owners start to feel that their hard work has paid off.
* Owners dedicate some of their time to strategic and growth issues.
This set of questions should help you assess what phase of growth your company is currently facing.
I will send you a link to the complete Information Strategies article when it's published.

They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and in many ways the sound quality of Bluetooth headphones can be like that too. Some people like the bass pumping, while others may prefer something a little more tuned to the higher tones. There really isn't a one-size-fits-all approach to sound.
You've probably heard that AirPods, regardless of type, will always sound the way they sound, no matter what you do. I am here to tell you that is wrong. While it's true that AirPods don't have a specific app to adjust EQ levels or sound profile, Apple has added several ways to change the sound on your AirPods.
So whether you have the AirPods 3, AirPods Pro, or AirPods Max, here are some ways to improve the sound.
1. Adjust the equalizer of Apple Music (or other apps)
One of the easiest ways to adjust the sound of your tracks to your ears is to change the equalizer in Apple Music or your favorite music streaming app.
On your best iPhone or iPad, Apple Music offers many different EQ modes, such as Bass Booster, Loudness, and Small Speakers, all of which are meant to adjust the sound to a specific sound profile. Moreover, Apple also gives you options to adjust the equalizer for music genres like pop, jazz, hip-hop, Latin music, etc.
So adjust your EQ settings (opens in a new tab) on your favorite music app and see what sounds best to your ears.
2. Change audio quality of Apple Music (or other apps)
Last year, Apple introduced Dolby Atmos and Lossless Audio to a ton of tracks on Apple Music at no extra cost to its subscription price. While the AirPods – not even the AirPods Max (opens in a new tab) – cannot provide full lossless audio, they box do you get Dolby Atmos. Make sure your audio settings are set to enable Dolby Atmos (opens in a new tab) when available.
In addition to that, you can also ensure that the audio quality of Apple Music is as high as possible even when you are using data and not Wi-Fi to stream. Here's how to make sure you're getting the best quality your AirPods can deliver.
How to Adjust Apple Music Audio Quality on iPhone and iPad
- Launch Settings from your home screen.
- Faucet Music.
- Faucet Audio quality
- Faucet Cell broadcast.
- Faucet High quality
Remember that this option will require more data to stream music, so be careful if you have data limits.
3. Use the ear tip fit test
Get the silicone tips for AirPods Pro (opens in a new tab) fitting properly is crucial for your AirPods Pro to sound great. Fortunately, Apple has offered three different sizes of silicone tips that you can install to ensure you get a good seal in your ear.
With these silicone tips, you can use the Apple Ear Tip Fit test (opens in a new tab) to check if your AirPods Pro fit properly.
This should give you a better idea of what size ear tips you should be using, and don't be too surprised if it suggests trying different sizes for each bud – it can happen!
4. Disable or enable spatial audio head tracking
Spatial Audio is the brand name for Apple's 360-degree sound format, which aims to make listening to music a multi-dimensional experience. When enabled, music or other sound should appear to come from different directions.
Spatial audio head tracking uses multiple sensors inside your AirPods 3, AirPods Pro, or AirPods Max; including accelerometers and gyroscopes, to track the position of your head relative to your iPhone. The idea behind head tracking is to allow music to stay in the same place in the soundscape created by your AirPods relative to where the device playing your audio resides. So if you turn your head to the right or left, the music moves accordingly, so all sounds stay in the same place relative to your iPhone.
It's a nice feature, but it can be a bit distorted and create an odd sound experience in some cases. Try disabling head tracking for Spatial Audio (opens in a new tab) if you find it too distracting.
5. Disable or Enable Spatial Audio Completely
Alternatively, you may just find Spatial Audio as a whole to be distracting and boring while listening to music. Some albums and tracks on Apple Music — especially older ones that have been remastered for Spatial Audio — can certainly sound good.
Try disabling spatial audio (opens in a new tab) completely if you find it hinders your music listening experience.
Bonus: Set Up Custom Spatial Audio in iOS 16
In iOS 16 (opens in a new tab) beta, Apple has released a new optional enhancement for Spatial Audio on the AirPods called Custom Spatial Audio. This is intended to tune the Spatial Audio experience to your specifications to maximize its effectiveness. If you have iOS 16 beta, you can try it yourself. Otherwise, you just have to wait until fall when iOS 16 goes public.
How to Set Up Custom Spatial Audio on iOS 16
Apple occasionally releases updates for iOS, iPadOS, watchOS, tvOSand macOS as closed developer previews or public betas (opens in a new tab)(opens in a new tab)(opens in a new tab). Although betas contain new features, they also contain pre-release bugs that may prevent normal use of your iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, Apple TV or Mac, and are not intended for everyday use on a main device. This is why we strongly recommend that you stay away from developer previews unless you need them for software development, and use public betas with caution. If you depend on your devices, wait for the final version.
- Launch Settings from your home screen with your AirPods connected to your iPhone.
- Faucet your AirPods which should appear right under your Apple ID.
- Faucet Custom spatial audio.
- Faucet Customize spatial audio.
From there, you will need to follow the instructions on your iPhone screen. It will ask you to move your iPhone around your head in different ways so that the camera can capture your ears and your head.
If you do this in public people will probably look at you a little funny – not that I know of course – but it only takes a minute or two and then you'll be off to the races with custom spatial audio.
Don't settle for bad sound
As you can see, there are many ways to adjust the sound of your AirPods that can help improve your listening experience. So don't listen to people who say AirPods will only ring one way.
Of course, if you think there's a problem with the sound of your AirPods and you suspect they're malfunctioning, you may need to contact Apple Support.

Statistics show that, locally, there's been a low uptake of the flu vaccination among pregnant women this flu season. However, if you are pregnant, it's really important that you get your flu jab.
You can have the flu vaccination at any stage of your pregnancy. Having the vaccination when pregnant is beneficial and helps protect you and your baby from flu over the first few months of life.
As well as protecting your baby, you should have the jab because being pregnant means you are at increased risk of getting serious complications from flu, compared with other healthy adults.
When you are pregnant, your body naturally weakens your immune (defence) system to ensure that the pregnancy is successful. As a result, you are less able to fight off infections compared with when you are not pregnant.
So, if you get flu, you are more likely to be seriously ill with it.
The best way to avoid getting the flu is by having the vaccination. Speak to your GP or midwife or visit the pregnancy and flu pages on the NHS Choices website.
For more information, you can read the NHS booklet 'Flu, your pregnancy and you' here.
For mums with young children, you can find details of the safe and effective nasal spray vaccination here.

Law - Made in Germany: Global Standort or Global Standard?
Deutsche Beratung bei Rechts- und Justizreformen im Ausland - 20 Jahre Deutsche Stiftung für Internationale Rechtliche Zusammenarbeit (Stefan Hülshörster &, Dirk Mirow, eds. 2012)
11 Pages Posted: 26 Aug 2012 Last revised: 23 May 2015
Date Written: June 3, 2012
Earlier this year the Federal Ministry of Justice released the second edition of the brochure, Law - Made in Germany. For those readers who do not know the brochure, it is the product of an umbrella group of German professional organizations known as the Bündnis für das deutsche Recht. A purpose of the Bündnis, as stated at its founding in 2008, and of the brochure, is to improve the position of German law in the ― "international competition of legal systems" (internationalen Wettbewerb der Rechtsordnungen). Catalyst for founding of the Bündnis and for publication of Law - Made in Germany was the 2007 publication by The Law Society of England and Wales of the brochure England and Wales: The jurisdiction of choice — dispute resolution.
The issue of the second edition of Law - Made in Germany is an appropriate moment to consider what improving the position of German law in international competition means. I see at least two different, but not mutually exclusive, goals. The one stems from the brochure's origin as counterpoint to the English brochure: to encourage non-Germans to bring their commercial disputes to Germany to be decided (forum shopping) and, related to that goal, to locate their businesses in Germany (location decision). The other goal is to raise appreciation of German law abroad and thereby, perhaps, to encourage voluntary adoption, adaptation or approximation abroad of some of its elements (reception of law).
Keywords: Germany, Federal Ministry of Justice, brochures, comparative law, German law, international competiton, Law Society of England and Wales, dispute resolution, commercial disputes, forum shopping, reception of law

After a long interview process, you've been offered a job, but can't shake the feeling it's the wrong move. Or your brother wants you to join him in buying a franchise, and everything in you is screaming: "Yes, the world needs more juice bars!" Chances are good that's your intuition speaking. And chances are even better that it's not telling you the whole truth.

Researchers, who have been trying to decode intuition for decades, have proven that we do have an inner sixth sense that speaks to us, sometimes with uncanny reliability. Experiments have shown that when people are given a "lucky" deck of cards stacked with more winning hands, they can sense it even before many cards have been revealed. (Researchers monitor when their palms start to sweat with excitement.)
But experts like Princeton University's Daniel Kahneman, author of Thinking Fast and Slow, have made a life's work of proving that fast decisions that feel intuitive are sometimes our sloppiest, and right only about half the time. His studies, covering everything from investing choices to health assessments, have shown that when trying to make intuitive decisions, people tend to be overly optimistic and confident.
Take Jane Robinson, who admits she has been both burned and blessed by following her gut. Now 57, she worked in the Michigan prison system for 22 years, climbing from guard to parole officer. But as her children left home and her frustration with the endless parade of offenders grew, she threw herself into her passion for painting. As she connected more with artists, the idea of communities that encourage creativity lit her fire. So when she was offered the directorship of a rehabbed factory where artists would live, paint and sell their work, intuition told her it was meant to be. "Even though I was only a few years away from getting a pension, I dove in, recruiting artists for 60 apartments and 20 studio spaces," she says.

you have proven your worth!
medals are just medals.
Success is not measured by how many medals you have garnered on your Graduation day. It is the things that you have learned along the way that matters because those are what molded you into your current being and which will prepare you to the tough life ahead.

Just Rock it!

Apologies for the questions - but again, you have nothing to bad sad about, I would hope your friends would be proud of you, and I know many are - it's a great accomplishment, so it should be all smiles and happiness.

The starting point for this performance is the text Hamletmachine by Heiner Müller. We researched the text and its original context. We worked on the question: In what way can we take this text personal? Do we have to pretend as if it is personal?
We found a connection in the syntax of the text. For the staging, we worked with the term: non-matrixed representation (Michael Kirby, 1972). We constantly looked for the bridge between the representation of Heiner Muller's text and the presentation of ourselves as performers, who are "merely carrying out certain actions". The performance was an overabundance of signs, not leading to one meaning, which we found an adequate representation of both the text and ourselves.
