Father of the wooden angels
Two wooden angels, 15 metres high, gracefully overlook the landscape around Davos. "They welcome and bid farewell to visitors," explains wood carver Andreas Hofer who erected the two angels at either end of Davos. A difficult undertaking that came to a happy end – like many of Andreas Hofer's 'angel stories'.
"My first piece of work as a wood carver was for my brother's grave," Andreas Hofer tells us. His workshop – a modern, multifunctional wooden hall with windows four metres high – in Davos Frauenkirch is flooded by the sun from all sides. It has that fresh smell of wood about it, there are shavings and sawdust everywhere – and it's a little untidy as you would expect of an artist's atelier.
An accident led to fulfilment
Andreas Hofer is a carpenter by profession. But for many years he was an avid skier: "My parents were farmers and skiing instructors; my younger brother was in the same team as Silvano Beltrametti. Skiing was always very, very important to us." He himself was a skiing instructor and trainer in the Graubünden skiing association. "That was the perfect combination: having fun and earning money at the same time!" But that was when fate struck: when Andreas Hofer fell and tore his ligaments, he had to have an operation; the wound became infected, which in turn led to blood poisoning. "Suddenly the option was amputating my leg – or possible death. In the end, the doctors managed to get rid of the infection and save my leg." But working in his original profession and skiing with an unsound knee was no longer an option. So, in his mid 20s, Andreas Hofer had to go back to square one. When he came across a brochure from the wood carving school in Brienz, it was suddenly clear to him: "That's what I want to do. I can see now that the accident was the key to my fulfilment as a wood carver."
«I can see now that the accident was the key to my fulfilment.»Andreas Hofer
The angels populate Davos …
Working on a headstone for his brother, who had been killed in an accident, was a key experience for the then budding wood carver: "I found it emotionally very difficult but it was an incredibly important way of dealing with the loss. Since then, I haven't been afraid of tackling difficult tasks," he explains. Soon afterwards, the angels started to appear: after Silvano Beltrametti's skiing accident, Hofer crafted a guardian angel for his younger brother. "It wasn't much more than a column with a head and wings. But this angel meant a lot more to us – it gave my brother inner strength and relieved me of all fear." Further angels were to follow: Hofer erected a four-metre high angel for the WEF Davos as a statement against the riots. Shortly afterwards, he designed the two 15-metre high angels that rise up into the sky at either end of Davos. To erect them, he asked for help from the Frauenkirch military airfield. "That's one of these angel experiences that I have time and again: I asked the air force if they would transport my angels with a Super Puma – and they said: Yes! Although they are not actually allowed to transport things for civilians. But they did it."
… and are multiplying
RhB has also played its part in one of Hofer's angel experiences: "For the angel in Davos Wolfgang I asked RhB – as a naive mountain artist – whether they could help me with the transport. To load the angel, we had to switch off the electricity and so we had to wait until the last train had arrived in Davos. And then we transported the angel and erected it in the middle of the night. RhB provided the cargo engine, coaches and staff." It is one of those anecdotes that makes Hofer believe in society: "When people see a common purpose in something, the possibilities are endless." Although sometimes the opposite is true: ultimately the angel in Davos Wolfgang had to be removed because it offended some people. But that doesn't bother Hofer and his angels continue to multiply. One of them has even flown up to the Jakobshorn: it floated up to the top of the mountain attached to the bottom of a cable car. The twelve-metre-high angel faces south east, towards Georgia, which was embroiled in a war in 2008: "I wanted people to think about those in the war zone and transmit positive thoughts through the angel. Even though it all seems so far away, it still influences our lives – it makes us impervious to the tragedy of small things." Hofer's angels now appear in Zurich, Luxembourg, Sochi, Stuttgart and New York. "I see every angel as a work of art that is spontaneously needed for something – as a sender or recipient of warm sentiments. I don't mean this in a missionary sense. They are meant for people who find some inspiration in them."
Sender and receiver
Hofer's angels are not always the size of the one on top of the Jakobshorn. "After Daniel Albrecht's skiing accident I was asked to carve him an angel. But designing an angel for an individual so that he can feel the sentiments is difficult. So instead of making a large sender angel for Daniel, I made him a small receiving one – a receiver of genuine sentiments. Then it went to Innsbruck to his parents." The angels accompany the wood carver, and never really leave him. "It has nothing to do with religion or being esoteric. But I believe in the power of positive sentiment – and these angels are a tool, a form of mental support. I always make an angel for a specific purpose, for somebody." But it is no longer just angels that come out of Andreas Hofer's workshop. He now also focuses on guardians: dark wooden figures without wings which, unlike the angels, are an earthly protection watching over someone. The sun angels, with their wings splayed open towards the sun, are the most recent members of Hofer's angel family.
A path dotted with sculptures
"Can I make a living from it? Well, as an artist you always need a certain degree of modesty. But naturally I want my work to finance my lifestyle." Which is why Hofer carves busts and other works on request. And he organises the International Sculptor Symposium in Davos. The works of art created during this week then feature on the Sculpture Path, which begins at Andreas Hofer's workshop in Davos Frauenkirch. "This path is a small gem for people interested in culture. Incidentally, the snow-covered sculptures are also fascinating in winter."

Why file Form I-130 for my relative?
If you are a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident, Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative, is filed with USCIS to help certain family members obtain a green card. U.S. citizens and permanent residents can help their relatives immigrate to the U.S., but only certain relationships are eligible. The purpose of Form I-130 is to prove that you have an eligible relationship and request a visa number for the specified relative.
Who is eligible to file Form I-130 for a relative?
Form I-130 can only be filed by a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident on behalf of the foreign-born relative.
Which relatives are eligible to be petitioned?
A U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident can only petition certain types of relatives with Form I-130. A U.S. citizen may petition for a:
- Spouse
- Son or daughter
- Brother or sister (petitioner must be age 21 or older)
- Parent (petitioner must be age 21 or older)
A lawful permanent resident may petition for a:
- Spouse
- Unmarried son or daughter
To learn more about eligible relatives and immigrant visa numbers, read Overview of the U.S. Immigrant Visa Process.
Which form should I file to help my fiancé immigrate to the U.S.?
To bring a foreign national fiancé to the United States for the purpose of marriage, a U.S. citizen can file Form I-129F, Petition for Alien Fiancé.
Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative, should not be used for a fiancé. Form I-130 should only be used to help a spouse immigrate to the U.S. after marriage.
What is the USCIS filing fee for Form I-130?
When you file Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative, you are required to submit payment for the $535 filing fee. The check or money order must be drawn on a U.S. bank and made payable to "Department of Homeland Security." USCIS does not accept a credit card or debit card as payment for this form.
What documents do I submit with Form I-130?
This depends if you a U.S. citizen or permanent resident, and it depends on the type of relative that you are petitioning. You will need to prove your citizenship (birth certificate, naturalization certificate, citizenship certificate, passport, etc). You will also need to establish the relationship with the relative through a birth certificate, marriage certificate or other document. Depending on your answers on Form I-130, there could be several other items that need submitted with the petition.
If you use CitizenPath to prepare Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative, our simplified filing instructions will tell you exactly what documents to submit for the relative that you have chosen. Learn more.
How long is the wait for a green card after filing Form I-130?
The length of wait depends on several factors, especially the type of relationship you have with your relative. It is very important to understand that petitioning to get a green card for a relative is only the first step. It may take USCIS several months to notify you of a decision on Immediate Relative Visas and several years for Family Preference Visas (For more information about Immediate Relative and Family Preference Immigrant Visas, read Overview of the U.S. Immigrant Visa Process). Once Form I-130 has been approved, your relative can apply for a visa at the nearest U.S. consulate in his/her home country. Alternatively, Immediate Relatives of U.S. citizens can apply for an Adjustment of Status (Form I-485) if the relative is already in the U.S. with a nonimmigrant type visa.
CitizenPath Guarantees Your I-130 Will Be Accepted by USCIS When you prepare your I-130 petition on CitizenPath, we provide simple, step-by-step instructions and alerts to help you avoid costly delays. We even guarantee USCIS will accept your form. No credit card is required to try it.
Can I list all my relatives on the same I-130 petition?
It depends. USCIS generally requires that you file a separate Form I-130 to petition for each family member.
If you are a U.S. citizen and your sponsored family member is your unmarried son or daughter (age 21 or older), your married son or daughter (of any age), or your brother or sister (age 21 or older), separate petitions are not required for his or her spouse or unmarried children under 21 years of age.
If you are a lawful permanent resident and your sponsored family member is your unmarried son or daughter (of any age), separate petitions are not required for his or her unmarried children under 21 years of age.
Can I check the status of my Form I-130 petition?
Yes, the easiest way to check the status of a Form I-130 petition is to go to My Case Status on the USCIS website. You'll need the receipt number from the Form I-797, Notice of Action, that you receive approximately two weeks after filing Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative.
How does CitizenPath help with a Form I-130 petition?
CitizenPath.com was designed by immigration attorneys to make the preparation of Form I-130 simple and trouble-free. The software checks your petition for common errors, and we provide alerts if we ever detect a problem. CitizenPath even guarantees that USCIS will accept your petition. It's free to get started.

30 Sep ACCA Annual Debate 2015
This is an excerpt of a speech delivered by Patrick Teng, Founder & CEO of Six Capital, at the ACCA's Annual Debate held on 30th September 2015 at The Four Seasons Hotel, Singapore.
In the midst of the Digital Revolution, Singapore's largest Banks today will relinquish their position as the dominant players in Corporate Finance in 2025.
Good morning ladies and gentlemen. I thought it would be worth starting with a very short, famous story about King Canute – the 11th Century King. A King who at the time also ruled over England, Norway and Denmark; clearly an extremely powerful man. King Canute is said to have set his throne down by the sea shore and then commanded the incoming tide to halt and not wet his feet and robes. There are no prizes for guessing what happened next: he got wet. Why did King Canute do this? He staged the scene to rebuke the flattery of his courtiers, to show them that there are some things that even one of the world's most powerful men cannot stop.
You see ladies and gentlemen, some things are inevitable. Some things cannot be stopped by even those who think they hold immense power. The impact of digital disruption is exactly the same; it is inevitable. Technology is disrupting everything – and banking, whether it is corporate finance or FX trading is no exception.
Digital disruption
From the way my friends on the opposition speak against the motion and about the digital revolution, it does seem that they have convinced themselves that this is an evolution – not a revolution. They argue that they can embrace digital technology, tinker their systems a little, and everything will be fine. Ladies and gentlemen, you and I both know, this is a revolution. No amount of fiddling around at the edges is going to keep away the tides of change.
It is already happening
I can confidently say that I am not simply putting forward a theoretical argument. Indeed, we can see this is already happening today. In my sector of expertise, FX trading, the role of the major banks has already changed significantly and will continue to do so. Change, that my friends on the opposition would have laughed off as unthinkable only a few years ago. Indeed, back when I was trading for the major banks, I would have said exactly the same.
But things have changed: the role of the banks as 'market makers' due to the ban on proprietary trading through the Volker Clause has changed significantly, leading to reduced liquidity and heightened volatility. So who is stepping in to provide the liquidity? Independent, entrepreneurial firms. And how is this possible? Primarily due to developments in technology and the new digital world that we live in.
The company that I founded six years ago, Six Capital has been being doing exactly this. The firm was set-up after the financial crisis of 2008, as it was clear there would be a demand for a new type of FX trader. There are new regulations, different dynamics and increased volatility in currency markets today – new approaches to trading are therefore required. That includes a new technological model, which is where we saw the opportunity to develop a platform that not only processes large volumes of trades, but also generates insights by leveraging and analysing big data. Ricebowl, our algorithm-based training and trading platform, does exactly that; by forcing traders to submit trades every 90 seconds on dummy accounts it enables big data to be created and analysed, removes the emotional aspects of trading, and therefore reduces the risk in trading FX, whilst leveraging scale through access to crowds.
The era of the 'big-swings' trader is over and the pendulum is shifting from the long-position, big-bet trader to the consistent, aggregation of a small-wins trader mentality. This business model would not be possible without the digital revolution and the ability of technology to provide access to crowds.
If this is happening in FX markets today there is absolutely no reason whatsoever why the same principles will not hold true for the other parts of the major banks' business.
Delivering access to scale and increasing efficiency
Those arguing against the motion speak about the scale and the uniqueness of the major banks, which will lead to their dominant position always holding true. They argue that adapting their services to become more digital is the best way forward for all.
This reminds me of a quote from Thomas Jefferson, one of the Founding Fathers of America, who said: "Power should be taken away from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it belongs". You see ladies and gentlemen, there is no inherent rule that says the major banks must exist. Far from it, banks exist because previously they fulfilled a role that could not be delivered in any other way. That quite simply is no longer true today. The digital revolution – not evolution – has changed that. Technology means the services they offer can be provided more efficiently, with more stability and more conveniently by others.
On the point of scale – that is exactly what the digital revolution is providing – the ability to draw on the resources of crowds and entire populations. Resources can now be scaled in a manner that has never previously been possible. Barriers to entry – the fortress the major banks have always relied on – have also been smashed down. Independent, flexible and agile firms are now able to enter markets, gain scale and offer services more efficiently and at higher levels than the banks can match.
The tides cannot be stopped
It is clear that those arguing against the motion believe that the banks' dominant position will always hold true because it is 'different' to all other industries – as if it is somehow immune from the digital revolution like no other. Ladies and gentlemen, the position of the opposition rests on an underlying assumption that the role of the major banks in corporate finance is somehow unique and therefore will remain dominant forever.
This is an assumption that has no basis. When the role of banks can be fulfilled more effectively and more efficiently by other players – their role will diminish. Due to new technology, delivering access to scale and reducing barriers to entry, that time is now. You cannot stop the incoming waves; the banks are about to get very wet.

Sporophyte was started by Karen Evans, an SLC native who relocated to NYC for 12 years, but now has returned to the Great Salt Lake area. Living in tiny Brooklyn spaces, Karen had trouble nurturing her love of plants. Terrariums were the perfect solution to having more green in her small spaces, and the fact that they didn't require much maintenance or watering fit with her busy schedule.

Unlimited data collection does have its limits
We are overwhelmed with data – or at least that's what I read in a recent study on the topic. Our data is now portable, too. I broke down a couple of months back and got a BlackBerry, which fits in nicely with my laptop, my home laptop and my personal cell phone. I've got recharging cords of all shapes and sizes.
We are overwhelmed with data %%MDASSML%% or at least that's what I read in a recent study on the topic.
Our data is now portable, too. I broke down a couple of months back and got a BlackBerry, which fits in nicely with my laptop, my home laptop and my personal cell phone. I've got recharging cords of all shapes and sizes.
If a pen is mightier than a sword, what does that make a BlackBerry? A weapon of mass distraction, that's what.
A quick online search of the words 'manufacturing data collection' shows there is no shortage of companies out there who will help you collect, manage, collate and synthesize all the data out on the plant floor. You can measure anything, even things you never knew you had. You can get your hands on data you never knew existed %%MDASSML%% probably data you didn't WANT to know about. But there it is, in a tidy little spreadsheet, beeping its way to your handheld, 24/7.
Aren't you glad we live in the Information Age?
As a result, any small hill of ignorance about what was happening on your plant floor is replaced by a mountain of numbers and measurements and instant analysis. It is a daily task to scale that mountain.
We are caught between two truisms in our lives:
You cannot manage what you cannot measure.
There are lies, damn lies and statistics.
Finding an effective route in between those truths is a skill that cannot be measured. The innate skill plant engineers have to turn data into action comes from the experience to understand the limits of data analysis.
There's much to be said for the organizational effectiveness of Lean, Kaizen, Six Sigma and the like, but there's still no replacement for MBWA %%MDASSML%% Management By Wandering Around. If you don't spend a good deal of time away from your data to explore your plant floor, you're missing the chance to see everything the data can measure %%MDASSML%% the skill of your workers, the ideas they bring to your process, and the touch and feel and smell of the equipment each day.
As you look at PLANT ENGINEERING this month, check out the words in the headlines: 'Monitor', 'Ensure', 'Understand', 'Develop'. They're all action words. Those words don't show up in spreadsheets. They're not data-driven. They depend on the unique experience of each plant manager and the unique enterprise of each manufacturing operation. They enjoin the plant supervisor to action.
Even as manufacturing professionals like you wrestle with the mountain of data %%MDASSML%% and make no mistake: more is on the way %%MDASSML%% there are still the things the data cannot measure. It's that combination of data collection and individual expertise that bring success %%MDASSML%% measurable success.

Annual Salary Survey
Before the calendar turned, 2016 already had the makings of a pivotal year for manufacturing, and for the world.
There were the big events for the year, including the United States as Partner Country at Hannover Messe in April and the 2016 International Manufacturing Technology Show in Chicago in September. There's also the matter of the U.S. presidential elections in November, which promise to shape policy in manufacturing for years to come.
But the year started with global economic turmoil, as a slowdown in Chinese manufacturing triggered a worldwide stock hiccup that sent values plummeting. The continued plunge in world oil prices has resulted in a slowdown in exploration and, by extension, the manufacture of exploration equipment.

From the world of sexual assault prevention:
Stages of Change
In group/out group
(Anti-Defamation League)
"Individuals who endorse entity theory view their personal qualities as something they cannot improve through their own direct efforts; instead, they seek out opportunities (such as brand experiences) to signal their positive qualities to the self or others. Conversely, individuals who endorse incremental theory view their personal qualities as something they can enhance through their own efforts at self‐improvement, reducing the value of signaling opportunities through brands."
Whether we like it or not our prevention efforts are seen as "brands." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9DWLyrljLDk&feature=related
It was time for us to re-brand. So our campaign mimics things our students would experience in other branding campaigns.
Video, shirts, lots of people wearing them on campus.
Something that looks like a logo, consistent colors, etc.
"…the study suggests that the neurological reactions of a few – reactions that people are not even consciously aware of, and that differ from the opinions they express – can predict the responses of many other people to ad campaigns promoting specific behaviors."
[for the brain science geeks in the audience: they looked at the medial pre-frontal cortex via fMRI. This part of the brain was found in earlier studies to be linked to positive responses to persuasive messages]

On Feb. 10, 2013, Kimbra walked onto the Staples Center stage and accepted a Grammy Award from Prince, who added his own seal of approval before reading the Recording Academy's pick for record of the year.
"Oh, I love this song," he said of "Somebody That I Used to Know," the quirky pop hit by Gotye that featured Kimbra's vocals and topped the Billboard Hot 100, eventually selling 7.7 million copies and racking up more than half a billion plays on YouTube.
Such a public endorsement by a music legend is the kind of moment a young artist might regard as a pivot point, an episode that set a course for triumphs to come. But a different day looms larger in Kimbra's memory: the next one.
That's when the New Zealand native moved into a rented Silver Lake property she'd discovered on Craigslist — a small farm, in her description, complete with sheep, a rooster and an outdoor stove set atop a tree stump.
"It was this strange little oasis," she said recently. "Nature has always been something that gets me creative, and finally I felt centered again. That changed everything."
Eighteen months later, the fruit of that creativity is revealed on Kimbra's impressive new album, "The Golden Echo." Released Tuesday by Warner Bros. Records, it's a boldly inventive pop experiment that moves from lush disco to sweaty R&B to crunching hard rock with the idiosyncratic logic of someone working in a makeshift home studio. Yet songs like "Carolina" and "'90s Music" face outward too, their bright melodies as irresistible as their textures are beguiling.
"Kimbra is thick with thought, and that can sometimes challenge the ear," said Van Dyke Parks, the veteran producer and arranger who devised the darting string parts in "As You Are." "But she does whatever she can to bring some confection to it. She always makes it tasty."
Born Kimbra Johnson, the 24-year-old grew up playing music in Hamilton, New Zealand, where the window in her childhood bedroom, she recalled wistfully, looked out over a river. In 2008 she moved to Melbourne after signing a management deal and began work on what would become her debut album, "Vows."
Full of sweetly off-kilter tunes reminiscent of the Canadian singer-songwriter Feist, the record sold well in Australia upon its release there in 2011. But to capitalize on the growing success of Gotye's "Somebody That I Used to Know" — a duet facilitated by the singers' shared producer, François Tétaz — Warner Bros. brought Kimbra to L.A. and teamed her with proven hit makers like Greg Kurstin and Mike Elizondo to record a handful of new tracks for the album's U.S. edition.
"That sounds like a very clinical process," the singer said at a café not far from her current home in Echo Park. (Having decided she was ready for an indoor kitchen, she left the sheep farm this summer.) "But it wasn't a thing of 'Let's add a few American pop songs.' If anything, what I added was slightly more left of center."
Still, Kimbra spent 2012 touring like an aspiring pop star, at one point playing eight shows over four days at that year's South by Southwest music festival; she also performed with Gotye on "Saturday Night Live," recorded a song for Tim Burton's movie "Frankenweenie" and collaborated with DJ A-Trak and Mark Foster (of the band Foster the People) as part of a Converse promotion. By the time of the Grammys last year, she was ready for a bit of the solitude that a Craigslist post appeared to promise.
"I'd go outside in the morning and cook eggs that I'd get from the coop," she remembered. "Then I'd eat my breakfast with the animals, looking out over Los Angeles."
The solace-in-nature thing can sometimes seem like a put-on, but for Kimbra it feels genuine. In our conversation at the coffee shop she was perfectly friendly yet spoke hurriedly, as though anxious to get through a series of talking points. But she seemed to relax later during a walk through Elysian Park, even as our path led us to scurry up a steep dirt hill.
"I'm from New Zealand," she said. "This is no big deal."
As inspiring as the farm was, Kimbra knew she needed additional tools to complete "The Golden Echo," which she wanted to sound "weightier" than "Vows" — like a "sonic experience," she said, in which scrappy, low-fi sounds would blend with slicker, more high-fi elements. So she took up with the producer Rich Costey, who installed her at his well-stocked L.A. studio; there they brought in players including Parks, the soul-jazz bassist Stephen Bruner (better known as Thundercat) and John "J.R." Robinson, a drummer celebrated for his work with Michael Jackson.
"Everything on this record was a product of looseness," Costey said. "Nothing was precious." The producer recalled opening computer files for some songs and discovering that Kimbra had already recorded upward of 250 separate parts. His job, he said, was to "consolidate" the singer's vision without sacrificing the spirit of adventure that defined her early demos.
Lenny Waronker, an A&R executive at Warner Bros. who helped oversee the record's progress, said Kimbra and Costey met that goal.
"We never knew what we were going to get from her," Waronker said. "The only thing predictable about Kimbra is her unpredictability."
And yet the release of "The Golden Echo," which quickly broke into the top 20 on the iTunes album chart, has put Kimbra into a familiar pattern of interviews and photo shoots and concert tours like the one she's scheduled to launch in October. (Before she leaves town she'll perform every Sunday night in September at the Bootleg HiFi near MacArthur Park.)
Considering all that's on the horizon, Kimbra said she's better prepared this time for the wearying experience of promoting a record in "an age of high stimulus and short attention." While living at the farm she began practicing meditation, she said, "trying to breathe and not get caught up in the need to just fulfill my yearning and move on."
"We live surrounded by projections of the self," she continued, and if that's true for normal people obsessed with tailoring their social-media identities, it's even truer for an artist whose "whole life is about output," as she put it.
Yet the title of "The Golden Echo," drawn from the name of a flower linked to the Greek myth of Narcissus, advises listeners to slow down and engage more deeply with the music, like Narcissus gazing at his own image reflected in a pool of water.
"That's a skill we're losing a bit," said Kimbra, whose gorgeously detailed album rewards such close attention.
"What if this record helps somebody do it?"

I noticed in a number of popular YA books released last year a trend that I find sort of disturbing--sexual assault as a plot device. (I'm not talking about issue books, by the way.)
I can think of a number of 2011 YA debuts, two of them NYT bestsellers, that included sexual assault for no discernible reason other than to bring down an otherwise strong female MC and... maybe to show how evil the antagonist could be. I won't presume to know the author's intentions. In both cases, if the assault was removed from the books, essentially nothing would change. In another YA book, there was a similar assault, but it served a distinct, plot-related purpose. It put the entire book into motion.
Should potentially triggering events be written only if it's for a clear, plot- or character-related purpose? I honestly don't know. I just know it bothers me when it doesn't. And sometimes, even when it does.
But the thing is: sexual assault happens all the time, and it's vile and unfair and, oftentimes, for infuriatingly senseless reasons. Some of those YA books could arguably be a reflection of this. So I guess I'm torn.
Saying it shouldn't be written in those situations is like silencing it, denying it doesn't just happen for senseless reasons (and possibly even giving the illusion that those random attacks are somehow less traumatizing than, say, premeditated rape), and that would be wrong.
Two of the MCs in the books mentioned above were strong females who refused to be a victim, continuing on without letting it affect their goals. I admire that. I really, truly do. But on the other hand, I also don't want to read triggering material that sort of felt thrown in just as a way to either challenge and bring down the female MC or as a go-to for showing evil. Because then I feel like the impact of such an experience is lessened, that the emotional pain of readers who've experienced it has been reduced to a plot device or a random point of angst that's quickly tossed aside.
I'm not sure where I stand on this, because I was still able to enjoy--and love--those books in spite of this particular issue.
What do you guys think? I'd love to hear your thoughts.

"Lost in Translation"
Canon 7D, ISO 200, F/8, 70 mm, 1/125second
November 10th 2012
"Lost in Translation" came about because I was trying to be more of a conceptual photographer: a type of photography that is staged to represent an idea. I had an idea and began to brainstorm the shot on how it will look once complete. I drew up some sketches on how I had it imagined and I was pretty happy with the outcome. I had to figure out clothes, which would best represent my vision as a model, atmosphere, props. Also, I had to create an actual set that brought it all together.
I wanted to create an image of a man who has been taken over by science; the one who stares at a chalkboard for hours. I asked my uncle, Keith, who was a city planner for Fargo, if he could pull off a mad scientist. When I asked, he didn't understand why he thought his face would be photo worthy. Anybody that sees the final image will understand that he fits it perfectly and my casting couldn't have gone to anybody else.
For the chalkboard, I found an old sign during clean up week from the Fine Arts Club. I bought some chalkboard paint and painted the back of the sign. That night, I looked up some equations and I filled the chalkboard up as much as possible and that weekend I was ready to shoot at Keith's house.
For clothes, I simply asked Keith if he had any suits from the 70's. He had a couple hanging up and when I arrived; I couldn't have been happier: Brown suit, gold watch, brown/orange tie, very warm toned. I set up the chalkboard on an easel and placed him a bit in front of the chalkboard. I wanted the chalkboard to be somewhat in focus where you could read it; however, soft enough to not compete with his face.
I wanted the bottom to be darker, and only a limited amount of light to strike Keith; so, I set up a single strobe behind me (camera left). I placed a 20-degree grid on the light, so the light wouldn't spill everywhere.
I was working in a small area in his office so for some images I had another little light behind him to add a bit of a kicker backlight to him, but it made his gray hair glow even with the lowest amount of power and all the way to the back wall. So, I think the only thing I would change about this image is to get a little bit of light behind him so his hair doesn't get lost in the shadows.
Over all I wanted the final image to look like a scientist who knows too much, and doesn't have time to explain it to you. Or a man that has forgotten more information than you will ever know.

IL: Privel Hinkati
January 5, 2015 | By Brandon Andrews | No Comments
INTERVIEW | Getting to Know Privel Hinkati
Tell us about a typical day in the life of Privel.
A typical day starts at 5:05am. I wake up and get ready, have breakfast and bike to my rowing training. I train during two hours and after I go to work attending meetings, doing individual work, and monitoring technology all day. Afterward, I go train again for about one hour before coming home and eating and going to bed early.
What (or who) inspired you to become involved in international affairs? What (or who) inspired you to become involved in athletics?
I don't think that someone inspired me. I have always been interested in International Affairs. I like discovering different countries, people, cultures so it was "normal" to be in this domain.
My parents inspired me to become an athlete. They have already told me that it 's important to push yourself and that sports teach life values. It's with these words that I grew up and I became an athlete.
What is the key to balancing your professional, athletic, and social commitments?
Oh it's simple. Motivation and organization. That's it ! You have to have a goal and be ready to make concessions in your life and be very organized to not fail.
What is the biggest mistake young professionals make, especially when pursuing a career in public service and foreign policy faced by people of color?
Just thinking that you are out of place due to your color. It's the biggest mistake because if you are there, and you have to be there, it is not a mistake.
What advice or learned lesson would you give other young professionals who desire to work in foreign policy?
I think that the most important thing is to be diplomat with everyone because you may meet again in different circumstances and have to work together. Don't ever count anybody out.
What's been the best experience of your career thus far (or the most rewarding) ?
To be hired at the Embassy of France in the United States out of more of 400 hundred candidates.
What's next for you in your career and what is your approach to reaching the next phase of your professional development ?
I'm let some time pass before thinking to my future but maybe I would like to create a startup. I'm working in the entrepreneurship domain too and I have a project so maybe it would be my next step in my career.
Lastly, what are three words to sum up Privel Hinkati.
Ambitious, Athlete, Thoughtful
How can people reach you on social media ?
On my personal website : www.privelhinkati.com

By Shyam Prakash and Steven Richard, Gravitas
Chief Compliance Officers (CCOs) at alternative asset management firms are facing increasing challenges overseeing and monitoring compliance with respect to investment guidelines and portfolio compliance mandates. To meet the new and growing challenges of effective compliance and risk management, a new trend is emerging among CCOs—namely, an expansion of the role to include greater involvement than ever with the investment process and, at the same time, expanded monitoring of portfolio compliance risk. Compliance risk can be broadly defined as monitoring compliance of investment style, portfolio construction and investment risk management, where these and other key areas relate to investment mandates, risk management guidelines and investor disclosures.
Several Factors Behind Heightened Oversight
CCOs are also introducing a wider regulatory focus on matters that reach beyond traditional "hot topics," such as code of ethics and insider trading. These additional areas include investigating the control structure of the firm's investment management practices and adhering to investor disclosures. Collectively, this heightened scrutiny stems from several contributing factors, including:
- Market events over the last several years have forced fund managers to meet investor demands for greater visibility into risk management policies and practices. As a result, there has been an increase in the level of investor disclosures surrounding portfolio strategy risk and compliance (e.g., control over "style drift" and concentration risk).
- Many larger, more experienced investors have been turning to separately managed accounts to gain access to prominent alternative investment managers. In doing so, these investors have been able to secure increased transparency and risk monitoring with respect to investment managers' trading strategies, portfolio construction, risk metrics and portfolio performance.
- Additionally, with the implementation of Dodd-Frank, there has been a significant increase in the sheer number of SEC-registered advisors. This brings with it the attendant burdens of demonstrating and documenting appropriate compliance with investment policies, procedures, and other elements that comprise fund offering memorandums, external marketing materials and internal operating manuals.
To meet these and other new dimensions of external scrutiny, CCOs are more acutely focused on thoroughly understanding their firm's investment and risk management environment in order to measure, monitor and report on portfolio risk against established investment policies and limits. While the extent and involvement of the CCO will vary by firm, "best in class" CCOs will focus on closer interaction and collaboration with risk managers in learning both the qualitative and quantitative dimensions of investment styles and strategies, portfolio construction processes, risk management framework, pre- and post-trade limit monitoring, periodic portfolio compliance reviews and testing.
Larger alternative asset management firms have responded to these demands by formalizing the risk management function through the addition of an independent Chief Risk Officer (CRO) to assist the Chief Investment Officer (CIO) and portfolio managers in making sound investment decisions. CROs are also playing the role of policing investment guidelines and risk management rules. To support the CRO and the risk management function, firms are making significant investments in building a comprehensive and integrated risk management framework. This may include establishing the proper governance to define appropriate measurements based upon investment guidelines and investor disclosures, defining policies and procedures to properly monitor compliance with such measurements, implementing advanced risk technology to measure risk limits and portfolio performance, and conducting stress testing and scenario analyses. Even with the sufficient levels of risk management experience and resources available at larger firms, implementing risk frameworks remains a challenging and time-consuming task and an even bigger challenge for smaller firms.
New Hedge Fund Launches Spur Scrutiny
As reported recently, new hedge fund launches during the first quarter of 2012 reached the highest level since the fourth quarter of 2007. At the same time, we are seeing a significantly sharpened focus on newly registered alternative asset managers by regulators. The SEC's short term strategy includes examinations of a significantly large number of newly registered managers and reviews of marketing materials as well as all compliance policies and procedures, among other materials.
Although start-up funds typically lack the budget and resources of larger, more established firms, they still bear the same "burden of proof" in terms of fulfilling their fiduciary responsibilities and contractual obligations. For this reason, newly launched alternative managers are facing major challenges in the area of compliance risk monitoring. Whether they bite the bullet and invest in advanced risk technology and staff resources or leverage third-party service providers with the necessary scale and risk-management experience, newly launched alternative asset managers must ultimately check the same compliance and risk boxes as their largest, more seasoned rivals.
To be precise, firms are not looking to outsource the risk management function, which is the mandate and responsibility of the portfolio management team. What they seek are experienced risk professionals along with the risk technology needed to help them meet the demands of investors and regulatory requirements. This can range from establishing a sound risk governance framework and designing customized risk reporting to advising on customized stress testing and scenarios analyses, and more.
While they face fierce competition for investor allocations and must closely manage costs, firms increasingly view operational, compliance and risk infrastructure as a competitive advantage. Sustaining that competitive advantage while continually adapting to a dynamic regulatory environment has led to ever-widening demands for complex, cross-functional capabilities, intelligence, analytics and intensified reporting horsepower. It is in the midst of this historic transformation that firms need to be thinking pro-actively about the solutions they are implementing in the course of managing formalized risk management and compliance practices within a continually evolving alternative asset management industry.

On May 4 what could be a more appropriate introduction to our A Scene to Remember category than the infamous, original "Cantina Scene" from Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope? As a source of many a pop-culture phenomenon and much controversy, because of changes in the Star Wars Special Edition, it is not too much to proclaim it one of the most iconic scenes in film history. Although many of you know this scene, let's take a look at it again, reminisce, and celebrate Star Wars Day:
If, by any chance, you should have lived in a hole until now and have never watched this scene before (shame on you, yes, but also) these 6 minutes really set the scene for the whole saga. You got a bunch of weird and interesting creatures that inhabit this galaxy (my personal favorite is balls chin guy). They have all somehow arranged themselves with living in the same space. Arranged, yes, but it is still a survival of the fittest situation and throw in some drinks at a bar and you got a hell of an explosive mix!
Here you also get a real sense of character constellations and what their roles will be throughout the saga. You got the timid sidekick droids R2D2 and C3PO, who are sidelined here, because the bar only allows actual living creatures to join in the action. There is Luke Skywalker, the young and somewhat naive boy from the countryside or rather desert, which has even less human interaction. He is threatened by some goons and has to be rescued by wise, old Obi Wan. He may look old and frail and talk with a posh British accent, but it becomes clear very quickly: Do not mess with Obi Wan Kenobi! He's a badass and not afraid to get a little violent (yet classy) to get his point across. Bad guys shut up, limbs go flying through the bar - happy days. The Cantina Scene is also where we first meet Chewbacca and Han Solo and they add a nice little angle to Luke and Obi Wan's rescue mission. This country boy and Jedi, the blatantly obvious good guys, have to visit this shady joint of a meeting place to pick up morally ambivalent, yet charming, smuggler Han Solo and his furry companion. Should make for one interesting quest!
A New Hope's genre is listed as "epic space opera" on Wikipedia and this scene embodies it perfectly. Great music - check! An epic story of good vs evil - check! Opulent costumes - check! Story taking place in a galaxy far far away with alien creatures speaking languages you don't understand - check! And finally someone, who knows how to exit the stage with a bang - check! More than anything the world remembers Han Solo's first appearance on our screens and his problem solving skills. No one could fry up a monster, not give a damn and simply exit with: "Sorry about the mess." The Cantina Scene truly is A Scene to Remember for making a character a pop-culture legend. After all, Han shot first."

Nobody Likes You
- Artist: The Right Bastards
- Genre: Rock
- Release Date: 10/22/2002
Not since the Fab Four played Shea Stadium has New York City seen such great music or such weird haircuts. The four lads who make up The Right Bastards have one mission in life: to spread their distinctive brand of 'freak pop' to the educated and disaffected of the world, and anyone else with two ears and a brain between 'em. So just how do they pull off this feat? Drawing from the kind of hyper-eclectic sources that make bands like Barenaked Ladies and They Might Be Giants so hard to categorize (and even harder to explain to your grandparents), the musical stylings of the Right Bastards feature offbeat and intelligent lyrics, bouncy tunes, crisp harmonies and a wicked sense of humor that serves up society's sacred cows as so much hamburger meat. Not only does the emperor have no clothes, they like to point out, but he's wearing a really bad toupee. The band consists of Scott Wolfson on vocals and acoustic & electric guitars; Mark Berube on vocals, bass, and harmonica; Skyler Bode on keyboards, bass, and vocals; and Dan Weiss on drums. The Right Bastards, a shockingly entertaining live act, can be seen regularly at New York City's ultra-groovy downtown club The Baggot Inn, and their debut album, 'Nobody Likes You,' is being hailed as the most exciting music to come out of the NYC scene since that kid who hits plastic buckets with drumsticks. So buckle your seat belts, clean out your ears, and get ready for the wild ride that is The Right Bastards. Won't you?

First Team News
Aguero and Dzeko boost for City
It's the sight City fans have waited to see for what seems like an age - Sergio Aguero and Edin Dzeko back in full training.
The injured pair missed most of December and with Stevan Jovetic also absent for several games, David Silva, James Milner and Jose Angel Pozo filled in up front at various points.
Dzeko had only recently returned from an injury sustained away to QPR in early November when he picked up a calf strain in the warm-up away to Leicester a month ago.
Kun Aguero was in red-hot form with 19 goals from 17 starts when he stretched for a ball at home to Everton on 6 December and injured his knee, forcing him to miss the past five weeks and all of the festive period games.
Now both Sergio and Edin are building up their fitness - and with games against Arsenal and Chelsea on the horizon towards the end of the month, it's a timely boost for manager Manuel Pellegrini, particularly with Yaya Toure away on international duty for up to six weeks.
With skipper Vincent Kompany also making good progress, it will be the perfect fillip for the Blues who will look to challenge for three major trophies in the coming months.
Welcome back, lads!

Accessing partitions on dual-boot systems
Why reboot every time you need to access data on the other side of your dual boot system? We'll introduce you to Captive NTFS – a free tool for reaching Windows NTFS partitions from Linux. We'll also show you some handy tools for reading Linux partitions from Windows.
As the Windows NTFS filesystem becomes more popular, users of Windows/ Linux dual-boot computers are increasingly confronted with a major problem: Linux is incapable of writing to NTFS [1] partitions. The Linux kernel has a module for binding the NTFS partitions, however, even its developers advise users against attempting write operations using the kernel module. The antiquated FAT filesystem was once the only free way for sharing data between the Linux side and the Windows side of a dualboot PC. However, Jan "Lace" Kratochvil has introduced the free tool Captive NTFS [2], a utility that supports Linux write access to NTFS partitions. Jan Kratochvil is the author of several other useful applications for Linux, including Surprise, a tool for resizing partitions [3]. The latest version of Captive NTFS (version 1.1.5) was released at the beginning of this year and drew the attention of a larger audience due to its use with Knoppix version 3.4 and other Knoppix-based systems, such as LinuxDefender Live! By Bit-Defender.

Mandela's daughter talks about her father
Interloper Portland, ORMay 30, 2013 11:15 p.m.
News about a true hero is always worth hearing. Nelson Mandela's younger daughters were little more than babies when he went underground in apartheid South Africa, was captured and convicted, and, spent 27 years imprisoned on Robben Island. Their mother, Winnie, made sure the girls were educated, despite continual harassment and sometimes imprisonment by the authorities. Meanwhile, Mandela's only son, from his first marriage, was murdered while he was in prison.
Compared to the challenges faced by heros like Mandela, the people posturing in faux scandals in our Congress are revealed as puny.

protecting your insurance premiums, saving you money
When you drive along at 30 mph you will take in an average of 1320 pieces of information every minute. So leave that mobile phone call or text until you get there.
As of this year (2012), it is a legal requirement to carry a breathalyzer when driving in France. In fact, most motoring organizations recommend carrying two to be on the safe side. If you don't you'll face an on the spot fine, so be warned.
Although 4×4 drivers may sit head and shoulders above the rest, that's not why they speed more often. It's more to do with perception. Research has shown that the higher you sit, the slower you think you are going. So make sure you keep an eye on the speedo to make sure you are travelling as fast or slow as you think you are.
Despite their high seating position, statistics show that SUVs are actually more than twice as safe to drive as ordinary cars. Figures in the USA show that there are 70 fatalities per million cars on the road, yet only 31 deaths per million SUVs.
Travelling at 80mph uses 11% more fuel than travelling at 70mph, yet saves you just five and a half minutes on a 50 mile trip. Even travelling at 75mph uses 6% more fuel, yet saves just three minutes. At almost £5 per gallon, those small percentages soon add up to much bigger fuel bills.
You are not obliged to carry any equipment in your car in the UK, but in Europe the rules vary widely. In many northern European countries, snow chains are compulsory, while in Bulgaria, you must carry a fire extinguisher. And don't forget your first aid kit if you're travelling through Austria, Croatia, Hungary or the Czech Republic.
The UK is one of the safest places to drive, according to accident statistics. There are only 7 fatalities per year for every 100,000 motor vehicles in the UK, compared to 15 in the US. In South Africa, this rises to 208.
Friction with the road warms the air in your tyres, creating a false reading when checking tyre pressure. So always make sure you check your tyres 'cold' before you set off, rather than en route.
Another change in French law this year is the banning of Sat Nav systems that identify the location of speed cameras. You must either turn off your Sat Nav or disable this function or you will face an on the spot fine if you are caught. This change also applies in Ireland, Germany and Switzerland.
Your instincts may tell you exactly the opposite, but if you find yourself skidding on ice, the best thing to do is to turn into the skid. Trying to turn the car out of the skid will just make it worse.
