Eloise Mumford has signed on to Universal/Focus Features' "Fifty Shades of Grey" to play Kate, the college journalist who misses her big interview with Christian Grey because she's sick — so she sends along roommate Anastasia Steele instead.
Individuals close to the talks tell TheWrap that Mumford — who's had some tough luck booking plum parts on well-received but quickly canceled TV shows "Lone Star" (Fox) and "The River" (ABC) — has closed the part of Kate and will be on-set when "Shades" starts shooting in a few weeks.
Also read: Inside Charlie Hunnam and Dakota Johnson's '50 Shades of Grey' Casting: Chemistry Tests to the Dotted Line
Mumford's film credits include Blumhouse feature "Not Safe For Work," also at Universal; and the female lead in the indie "Drones." Mumford will play opposite Dakota Johnson, whom TheWrap first linked to the adaptation of E.L. James bestselling erotic novel.
The casting of Mumford, who is repped by Paradigm, was first reported by Variety.

The Florida Gators are 13-5 and ranked No. 21 in America in the latest ESPN/USA Today poll. While that might thrill at least 300 NCAA Division I basketball programs, it's hardly the stuff of parades and pep rallies in Gainesville.
Fact is, it's the lowest regular-season ranking the Gators have had since March 1999. And it's their worst record through 18 games since 1997-98, Billy Donovan's second year on the job.
It's not quite enough to make anyone miss the John Lotz Era (if you don't know, don't ask). But life could be better.
That's the curse of consistency and the burden of expectation, both of which weigh heavily on this program. Florida has become so routinely good under Donovan -- 85 consecutive weeks in the AP top 15 until just last month -- that the temptation is to ask, "What's wrong with the Gators?" While that might not be fair, there is reason to believe this program has underachieved the past couple of seasons.
Florida's fate-kissed run to the national championship game in 2000 was viewed at the time as a launching-pad moment. Instead, it's become a high-water mark. What's followed has been a string of excellent regular seasons, followed by early (and often ugly) SEC and NCAA Tournament losses. Florida has also had to endure a return to back-seat SEC status behind Kentucky, which comes to the O'Connell Center on Tuesday (ESPN, 9 ET) night seeking a fifth straight win over the Gators.
The Wildcats' two-game sweep last year, which included an outright punking in Lexington just hours after the Gators rose to No. 1 in the land, went a long way toward labeling that Florida team as soft. So far this year Donovan's team has done little to alter that perception.
Beating Arizona in Springfield, Mass., in November was terrific -- but Zona has its own reputation as a finesse team to deal with. Getting outrebounded by 19 at Tennessee last Saturday didn't help establish the Gators' toughness. Neither did a seven-rebound deficit against Mississippi State in Florida's first home loss to an SEC West opponent in five years.
And Florida's performance with the biggest of bullseyes on its back has not been the sternest of stuff, either. For the second straight season, the Gators have reached No. 1 and immediately fainted.
Last year it was the rout in Rupp Arena. This year they celebrated the top ranking by losing at home to Maryland, then being embarrassed in Freedom Hall by Louisville later that same week.
Against the Cardinals, Florida looked unwilling to dig in and play tough defense down the stretch. That and an apparent disinterest in sharing the ball made the Gators seem like less than the sum of their sumptuous parts.
"Part of the reason we're up and down is because of our youthfulness," Donovan said. "We're like a lot of other people in the country. When you have nine freshmen and sophomores, you're going to have your ups and downs and some roller coasters. ... We have to rely more on these guys than maybe some other teams do."
While there's some truth to that, it's also true that youth becomes a more hollow excuse every year in elite college basketball. And some of Florida's most important young players are hardly babes on the hardwood.
Sophomore Matt Walsh has started 51 straight games. Fellow sophomore Anthony Roberson, last year's Freshman of the Year in the league, has played more than 1,300 collegiate minutes. Soph Christian Drejer missed half of last season with injuries, but he's starting and averaging 29 minutes per game this year.
Those returning players are why Florida began the year in everybody's top 10 and were considered by many to be a Final Four pick. But all three players are still operating at roughly the same levels as last year.
Walsh remains as likely to commit a turnover as have an assist, and his shooting percentages are down. Drejer has been an effective distributor, but still hasn't lived up to the raves he got coming out of Denmark. And the explosive Roberson still seems like he's not fully embraced the pass-first, shoot-second concept. (Which might be a reason why power forward David Lee isn't getting enough shots. Lee was 1 for 5 against Tennessee, although Donovan praised him for passing the ball well when double-teamed.)
Those are reasons why some people are ready to slap Donovan with the dreaded great-recruiter/iffy-coach tag right now. The jury remains out on that issue -- but this year is an important one for Donovan to re-establish his Youthful Genius rep.
So the arrival of Kentucky, which comes with its own issues (like finding some offense), could be statement time for the Gators. With a loss, they'll be 4-4 in SEC play and inhaling the Wildcats' exhaust fumes again. With a win, they'll at least have stood up to King Kentucky, defended their home court and kept themselves in the thick of the SEC East race.
And maybe being ranked No. 21 won't seem like a letdown anymore.
Crosstown Bearcat trap?
Cincinnati enters its annual Crosstown Shootout rivalry game with Xavier as the ranked favorite, and that might not be good news for the Bearcats.
Three of the last four times they've met when Cincy was ranked, Cincy has lost -- including twice as No. 1. In fact, Xavier has won five of the last seven meetings overall, specializing in nip-and-tuck victories. Three of those wins were by a single basket, and last year the David West-led Musketeers won by six.
Even though Cincinnati is 15-2, a warning light is flashing on the dashboard. This team is not playing typical Bob Huggins defense right now.
When Cincinnati gave up 93 points to Louisville on Jan. 21, it marked the first time since 1997 that a Conference USA opponent had scored more than 85 on the Bearcats. Then Charlotte did it again 10 days later in an 86-83 upset win on Cincy's home court.
In both games, the Bearcats sent the opponent to the foul line way too often, showing more hacking hands than moving feet. This isn't a vintage Xavier team, but expect Romain Sato and the boys to challenge Cincinnati to guard better than it has of late.
Marquette's Tom Crean showed again Saturday why you don't want to give him a week to prepare for your team. Crean took his underdog Golden Eagles into Freedom Hall and upset wounded Louisville, a huge win for a team struggling just to get into the at-large NCAA Tournament argument. Consider them there now, with their RPI rocketing from 67 to 47, thanks to a career-high 30 points from mad bomber Steve Novak and some tenacious defense on the Cardinals. Louisville made just 5 of 34 three-point shots and had trouble breaking down the defense the way it had become accustomed to. In preparation, Crean and his staff pored over tape of the Louisville-Holy Cross game -- a butt-ugly defensive battle in which the Crusaders frustrated the Cards for 40 minutes.
The Marquette loss not only ended Louisville's 16-game winning streak and loosened its grip on first place in C-USA, it left the Cardinals with continued health issues heading into a dangerous trip to Memphis Wednesday.
One day after saying he doesn't like to play anyone unless they're 100 percent healthy, coach Rick Pitino -- himself coming off a major health scare -- played point guard Taquan Dean for 21 miserable minutes. Dean missed four of five shots and failed to record an assist, then limped out of the game with his pulled groin as sore as ever -- putting him on the shelf for the Memphis game and perhaps beyond.
"I couldn't do anything," Dean said.
"I won't let him come back now until he's 100 percent," Pitino said. "If we have to take our lumps, we have to take our lumps. We have to get him back healthy for the tournament."
Swingman Francisco Garcia played on a sprained ankle and was not himself (eight turnovers, 5-of-15 shooting), but should be OK for the Memphis game.
Charlotte looked like it gave away a key home game when it lost to UAB Jan. 24, but regained it with its stellar performance at Cincinnati. Now: look out. The 49ers play only two teams the rest of the way ranked higher than their 32nd in the RPI, and both are at home (Louisville Feb. 12 and Cincy Feb. 28). The 49ers (13-5, 5-2 in league play) have the week off before traveling to East Carolina, which is in the throes of an eight-game losing streak. Last year the Pirates lost 13 of their last 15.
Don't look now, but UAB (13-5, 6-1) could be sneaking into the C-USA driver's seat. There's a long way to go, and the Blazers still must make trips to Louisvile and Memphis, but they're tied for first and get all the breaks in the league's ludicrously unbalanced scheduling. The three teams UAB plays twice are the three worst in the league: East Carolina, South Florida and Tulane. (Compare that to co-leader Louisville's three repeat opponents: Cincinnati, Marquette and Memphis.) Cincinnati and Marquette come to Birmingham this month. It's set up for the Blazers, if they're good enough to take advantage.
The hottest team in the South, and perhaps the land, remains Mississippi State. The Bulldogs are the only team in the competitive SEC with a double-digit positive scoring margin in league play, and rank in the top half of the league in 18 of its 19 statistical categories. (The lone exception: three-pointers made. The Bulldogs are 11th at just 4.9 threes per game, preferring to pound it inside to Lawrence Roberts.)
Ole Miss forward Justin Reed is making a dark-horse bid for league Player of the Year, and he's taking the Rebels with him. Mississippi has won three of its last four games, capped by an upset of South Carolina in Oxford Saturday, and Reed has been magnificent. He scored a career-high 32 against the Gamecocks and is averaging 20.1 points and 6.9 rebounds in seven conference games.
Arkansas coach Stan Heath was not thrilled with his team's 50-point output and 21-point loss at Georgia Saturday and wants an attitude adjustment. The Razorbacks employed an every-man-for-himself offense, racking up all of five assists. "The first thing we have to get straightened out is our attitude," Heath said. "Winning comes first. I want our mindset to be focused on teamwork."
Tennessee finally won a close game over a ranked team, but Buzz Peterson isn't sure that means the Volunteers (11-6, 3-4) have turned a corner just yet. "There is such a fine line between winning and losing," Peterson said. "We are an offensive possession and a defensive stand from being 13-4 and perhaps ranked in the Top 25. Also, we could be 10-7. We need to give it our best shot and execute down the stretch every time."
SEC teams seem to have figured out that Kentucky is short on shooters. Keep two eyes on Gerald Fitch, keep a hand up on Kelenna Azubuike, and the rest of the team cannot pick up the perimeter slack. Through six SEC games the Cats are shooting just 28 percent from three-point range, 11th in the league.
Quote to note
"Coach (Kevin Stallings) told us they jump out to leads, but don't hang your heads because they'll give it right back to you if you play good defense."
-- Vanderbilt senior and former Kentucky Mr. Basketball Scott Hundley on Stallings' prescient Kentucky scouting report. The Wildcats once again coughed up a second-half lead (this one 10 points) and this time failed to make the plays at the end in a 66-60 Vandy upset.

Huntington Beach, CA (PressExposure) May 09, 2014 -- The rappers and producers of hip hop known as Bay Deep and Yungn Will have released their latest single, "Hit'It." The track is the most significant official release from the duo in recent months. It has been published on the Gas League Ent. record label. With a sound that mixes the West Coast sound with trappings of old school and contemporary underground hip hop, "Hit'It" by Bay Deep and Yungn Will is a statement to the urban music scene worldwide: these hip-hop heroes have arrived.
Bay Deep and Yungn Will cite as main artistic influences Tupac Shakur, E40, Messy Marv, Mac Dre, Meek Mill, Cash Money Records,Ti , and Wiz Khalifa. As might be imagined, their own sound is a grab bag of the best attributes of these legends, with a healthy dose of Bay-Area beatdown.
"Bay Deep got started by freestyling, battle rapping, ghost-writing, then remixing songs in high school," they write. "Yungn Will always had a knack for music. It's been a passion from freestyles on the blocks where I grew up or was living at the time, 'til I was actually making music."
Their closing statement says it all. "Yeah, we love music. We're solo artists from the Bay Area. We decided to come together and make some anthems."
And anthems they have made. Asked to describe the themes of their new single, "Hit'It," they make a list of descriptions and party necessities: "Get money; come with the best-looking women; real music; deep lyrics; club anthems," and, of course, "#TurnUp."
Bay Deep and Yungn Will hail from California's Bay Area, from where Bay Deep gets his name.
"I have multiple styles of rapping and recording music," Deep writes. "Always considered myself a future millionaire. Now it's happening. 23, now I'm ready to take over. I didn't drop out of Stanford for no reason."
Yungn Will recalls his youth in Central CA.
"I grew up rough out there in them cities. I'm using music as a way out for my feelings and emotions. I'll deliver on every track so you feel it, so you know it's real."
"Hit'It" by Bay Deep and Yungn Will is available online everywhere beginning April 9, 2014.

Heroes and Villains
Buck Dharma
At 8:30 pm tonight, the WWF asks that we all, everywhere in the world, turn off our lights for one hour. Check the website for more information.
Here's an artist's representation of the event:
Not everyone thinks this is a good idea, for various reasons. Some think it is a pointless gesture intended to increase paranoia; some think it is not enough.
Jimmy Orr writes an overview here.
Here at the Contarian, we're not going to tell you what to do (author's note: unless the Poobah edits this part); rather, we offer it for you to think about. All I'll say is it might be a good excuse to cuddle up with someone special, or meditate, for those of us who live alone in the woods.
I refuse to turn off the lights for the World Wrestling Federation.
I will, however, turn ON my heart light.
You do realize you're fucking with the Ultimate Warrior & Jake the Snake Roberts? Or at least that's who you would have been fucking with when I was a kid. Can't say I've kept up…
Junk Yard Dog, The Iron Sheik and Randy "Macho Man" Savage were among my guys.
Casey, did you ever watch the amazing WWF cartoon??
I support anything that involves "the lights out"
Molly: I think I liked the cartoon more than I liked actual wrestling.
Matty: clever shill!
Me too! Ur my soul mate.

In honor of children everywhere and the magic of Halloween, I've written a poem to read to your kids when you serve them Beefy Pumpkin Ghoulash.
And, because Google bots can't read text on photos, I'm repeating my poem (double dose of toil and trouble!):
As witches, vampires, ghosts and goblins gather on Halloween night
Here's a kid-friendly dinner recipe that's perfect at first bite:
One yellow onion to keep witches away
Five cloves of garlic to keep vampires at bay.
Ground beef to make a werewolf drool
Plus pumpkin that escaped the carver's tool.
Fire roasted red tomatoes left behind by a dancing devil
Don't forget to add kidney beans to the cauldron or kettle!
Skeletons rubbing elbows with macaroni
Forget about accidentally adding phony baloney rigatoni!
A pinch of salt, a dash of pepper
Douse with water and at the last minute, cheddar;
Black olives for eyes and a red onion smile
Topped with celery leaves and voila', a hair style!
Beefy Pumpkin Ghoulash, a hearty harvest delight
Is just what the Bogeyman ordered on Halloween night!
Beefy Pumpkin Ghoulash, made in a skillet, is one of those one-pot dinners that is not only a delicious, comforting meal but kid-friendly too. Served with sliced red onion "moons" for smiles, black olives for eyes and a tuft of celery leaves for hair, let your kids decorate their own. They don't have to eat the red onion – just explain that they need to make their pumpkin ghoulash smile (or frown)!
When I was a kid, I loved to put black olives on all my fingers and eat them one at a time! Place a bowl of black olives beside your Beefy Pumpkin Ghoulash and see what happens next.
I love this "bat" basket. I had to figure out a way to use it, so I placed the serving bowl of Beefy Pumpkin Ghoulash in it.
The hardest part about making Beefy Pumpkin Ghoulash is chopping the onion and garlic. After that, it comes together in minutes with sauteed ground beef, cans of diced tomatoes, kidney beans and pumpkin (I used fresh mashed pumpkin because I had some leftover in the freezer from a pumpkin baking adventure, but you can use canned pumpkin. Just don't use canned pumpkin pie filling). Add water and macaroni, cover with a lid and 15 minutes later, dinner is ready.
Here's the recipe:
- 1 tablespoon canola oil
- 1 yellow onion, peeled and chopped
- 5 cloves of garlic, peeled and finely minced
- 1 pound of lean ground beef
- 2 - 14.5 ounce cans of fire roasted diced tomatoes
- 1 - 15 ounce can of dark red kidney beans, drained and rinsed
- 2 cups fresh mashed pumpkin or 1 can mashed pumpkin
- 1 teaspoon salt (more to taste)
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper (more to taste)
- 4 cups water
- 1 - 12 ounce package of elbow macaroni
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 16 (or more) black olives (for garnish)
- ½ red onion, peeled, cut in half and sliced (for garnish)
- 1 bunch celery leaves (for garnish)
- In large skillet with a lid, add canola onion and heat over medium heat.
- Add onions and saute until translucent.
- Add garlic and saute a few minutes more.
- Add ground beef, breaking up with spoon and saute until brown.
- Add tomatoes, kidney beans and pumpkin and stir until well-combined.
- Add water and bring to a boil.
- Add macaroni, stir, bring to another boil.
- Cover and reduce heat to medium and cook 10 to 15 minutes until macaroni is al dente.
- Add cheddar cheese and stir until incorporated and melted.
- Taste and correct seasonings by adding more salt and pepper.
- Serve with black olives for eyes, sliced red onion for smiles and celery leaves for hair.

I've seen many friends put in a position where their boss asks them to fire someone on their behalf. Has this ever happened to you? Explain....
sort by best latest
It,s very difficult to say You are Fired because my boss does not want you any more.There should be a proper reason for firing an employee.
You can help the HubPages community highlight top quality content by ranking this answer up or down.
Your right, there should always be a reason, but some bosses don't have the guts to do the firing themselves & get their employees to do the dirty work. Very few bosses are honest & upfront enough to meet with an employee & let them know
Yes, I've been put in that position once. The boss was out of state on vacation, and a chronic troublemaker took advantage of that fact to begin to "poison" a new employee with unfounded rumors, blatant falsehoods, and disrespectful and insubordinate language about the boss. Someone in the office informed the boss of this by text message, and the boss called me with instructions to terminate the offender immediately.
I first asked the boss to give me those instructions in writing, by email, which she promptly did. Then I confronted the offending employee and told her that her services were no longer required. She disputed my authority to terminate her and refused to leave the workplace. I responded by threatening to call the police and have her removed (we have no security department in our company), and proceeded to do so. She immediately changed her mind, gathered her belongings, and headed out the door, loudly mouthing epithets and threats of legal action as she went out the door. End of story.
I'm glad I got my instructions in writing from the boss. I'm also glad I didn't try to physically remove this woman myself. To have done either of these things differently could have made a bad situation much worse.

Wow that must have been a stressful situation. At least she didn't stay very long poisoning the rest of the environment for everyone.

Interview by Howie Rhee '04, with contributions by Vivian Chung. Added August 18th, 2015
I'm a senior at Duke studying Political Science.
Tell us about your work experience and previous summers at Duke.
For most of the past year I worked as a research assistant for one of my professors and before that I worked as an elementary school tutor. Last summer I received a grant to conduct Political Science research on the US Senate and the summer before I studied abroad in Paris.
What did your recruiting process look like? How many people did you reach out to?
My recruiting process ended up being largely an enormous set of informational interviews, one of which eventually led to a connection to the jobs I worked for the summer. I compiled a list of more than 200 people to talk to, reached out to around 100 of them, and had about 85 informational interviews.
How did you come up with a list of companies/positions to target?
I decided I wanted to see how an organization was run and structured, so I set my sights on an executive assistantship. My interest was far more in the position than the sector, and so the executive assistantship I eventually got, working for a philanthropic foundation, was by no means the field or organization I initially targeted, but ended up being a fantastic fit.
Talk about how you thought about location (city) as it related to recruiting. Did you know where you wanted to end up or were you exploring?
Location is very important to me in terms of my career, but I was so interested in the opportunity to have an executive assistantship, and knew that even one offer would be hard to come by, that I was willing to put aside location as a top priority for the position. That being said, DC was on my list of places I wanted to end up, although not at the top, and so when I got the position in DC, I was absolutely fine with the location and really enjoyed the time I spent there.
How did you end up getting the job?
The path was by no means straightforward, but here is the direct path of connections that connected me to the jobs I had for the summer. Bill Wright-Swadel, the director of the undergraduate career center connected me to Inga Peterson, the associate Vice President of Alumni Affairs, who connected me Shep Moyle, a Board of Trustees member, who connected me to Reid Lewis, the head of DukeGen, who connected me and forwarded my resume and cover letter to a group of DC CEOs, which my current boss's husband saw, passed it on to her, and she gave me a phone call and asked me if I wanted a job. She then connected me to the two other positions I also ended up working for the summer.
Where did you end up working?
I worked (and am still working) part-time as an intern assistant to the executive director of a philanthropic foundation in DC called the Bernstein Family Foundation. I also worked part-time for 5 weeks as a development intern for Environmental Working Group, and part-time for 5 weeks as an intern for another philanthropic foundation called the S&R Foundation, and a social entrepreneurial incubator the foundation runs called the Halcyon Incubator.
In the job search process what was the most helpful advice/support you got?
The best piece of advice I got was from Shep Moyle. He said with every informational conversation you have, you should walk away with at least one more person to talk to next in your search. I made a point afterwards of getting at least 3 people from every conversation I had, and wouldn't have gotten the jobs if I hadn't.
The most helpful support I got was from Reid Lewis. He scheduled weekly phone calls with me for about a month, helped edit my resume and cover letter, and then forwarded them to a group of CEOs in DC and added me to the DukeGen Linked-In group so I could post them there as well. I went from no job offers in 3 months to 3 executive assistantship offers in a week, 2 from the DC CEO group and 1 from DukeGen, and ultimately had the option of choosing between 3 great offers in exactly the position I was looking for.
Anything else you'd like to share with Duke students that are doing their own job search?
Talk to everyone. If your odds of getting a job are 1%, then talk to 100 people so that the odds even out.
I found that the best determinant for how helpful someone will be in your job search is how willing they are to connect you to other people in line with your interests.
By far the most useful conversations I had were the ones where the person I talked to gave me a list of people to talk to next, gave me each person's contact information, and even on a couple of occasions provided me warm introductions. Anyone who doesn't give you at least one lead to go off of, particularly after you ask directly for one, probably doesn't understand the power of individual connections well enough to be of all that much use to you in your search.

[Blog] Robust Company Codes of Conduct: A Vital Component in the Fight Against Forced Labour
- Details
A staggering 21 million people are currently estimated to be victims of forced labour worldwide. Domestic work, agriculture, construction and manufacturing are among the sectors most concerned, with migrant workers being particularly vulnerable. Forced labour has evolved over time, with much of it now occurring in the private economy.
The role of the industry
Global supply chains are complex, and often involve some of the poorest countries in the world with limited institutional capacity for regulation to protect workers' rights. Multinational companies have the ability to mainstream values along their supply chains by working with their suppliers on issues such as decent working conditions. Hence, private sector and industry collaboration is paramount in addressing forced labour.
The members of The Consumer Goods Forum are aware of this critical industry role and have already taken an ambitious step by committing to supporting the eradication of forced labour through a recent resolution. In fact, it is the first time an entire industry has publicly recognised the issue of forced labour with leading CEOs putting the issue high on their agenda. The key now is to implement this cooperative commitment to drive real change across the industry.
Tackling forced labour from a business perspective starts with a strong common message to suppliers. So the question to ask is how can companies and voluntary sustainability standards further reinforce and streamline this market signal throughout global supply chains?
Codes of conduct: Which Requirements?
One of the ways is to communicate more clearly to suppliers on which practices are not tolerated. This is typically achieved by setting social requirements in a company code of conduct that suppliers have to sign and respect. Equipped with such a code of conduct, an auditor can then visit the supplier to validate that the required social safeguards are fulfilled.
That being said, auditing social requirements remains a difficult task – especially when it comes to illegal practices such as forced labour. Forced labour is by its very nature hidden. Hence, it is not easy to detect through an audit. However, in spite of the clear challenges presented in detecting forced labour, there are certain employment practices at the supplier level which could lead to situations of labour exploitation, and should be targeted. Typical elements that buying companies can, and should, address in their sourcing policies are the implementation of safeguards against passport retention, recruitment fees that can lead to indebtedness, withholding of wages, physical or psychological coercion of workers and any restrictions on freedom of movement. Clear terms of employment need to be made available to the worker before entering into an employment relationship.
To learn more about why these practices are problematic and how they could leave workers trapped in forced labour, check out the video that the ILO and CGF recently released.
How can the Consumer Goods Forum and its Equivalence Process support your company?
The Consumer Goods Forum (CGF) can and does actively support companies in addressing forced labour. Not only does the CGF raise awareness about this issue, it also helps companies and voluntary sustainability standards to double-check if their social requirements for suppliers already cover such key criteria through its GSCP Equivalence Process (EP).
We all know that codes of conduct and auditing are only one piece of the puzzle and addressing forced labour more effectively requires additional collaborative approaches that go "beyond audits". Nevertheless, the journey starts with a clear message to all suppliers outlining practices that are not acceptable. This needs to be accompanied by robust audit procedures, competent auditors as well as meaningful mitigation and remediation measures that put the interest of the workers first should forced labour be uncovered.
The Equivalence Process benchmarking tool provides an in-depth review if key elements of a robust social compliance approach are covered. By going through the comprehensive Equivalence Process benchmarking, your code of conduct will be assessed to ensure it contains all the relevant and necessary elements on decent working conditions, including forced labour. We use international best practice as outlined in the GSCP Reference tools as the basis for the comparison.
As benchmarking experts, we currently still assess codes of conduct that make only general reference to the issue of forced labour, without mentioning more detailed safeguards as outlined above. The Equivalence Process helps to identify these gaps and verifies that robust supplier requirements are in place. Accessing results of your partner organisations and voluntary sustainability standards helps you to make sure that the sustainability standards you accept are up to date when it comes to addressing forced labour and other social compliance requirements.

I came across this project whilst browsing on Pinterest and thought it was a really sweet and simple idea to spend the year getting to know yourself a bit better. Like everyone else, now that Christmas is out of the way, I'm definitely digging that 'new year, new me' phase which comes along every New Years. I really love the idea of documenting my time; I really have had some amazing experiences and wished I'd documented them better at the time. Along with a bunch of other ideas, I really liked this one because it's so personal and takes minimal effort.
The 52 Lists project is basically where you fill out a list once a week. I've always wanted one of those Listography books because I love how you can look back and see what your answers were to certain things months and months ago, and this is a really cute spin on that that takes less commitment. The list topics are varied too but a little more deeper, giving you the chance to really dig deep and get to know yourself a bit better. It's taken from Moorea Seal blog and I've noticed that although she didn't managed to complete the project last year, she's repeating the same list topics from last year of the ones she did do and adding some more. Which is another lovely idea because if you choose to continue this for a few years, the lists will be the same but you can see how your answers vary year by year.
I've got to admit, I agonized for ages over the first list. Not because I didn't know what to write - but I didn't know how to write it. I wanted to be creative so I struggled to decide whether to write it out or print it, whether to keep it simple with just a few words or a long list etc...which made me realize that this could actually be a really fun and creative project too. As the weeks go on, I'd like to vary the list styles and experiment more.
I probably won't blog my lists every week if at all because it's nice to keep some things personal but I might blog at the halfway mark and when I finish. I'll also most probably put a picture or two of my lists up on instagram as I go on so feel free to check them out on there. I'm really excited about this as I feel it's a lovely way to just sit and reflect on things, as well as an excuse to get a bit arty and creative!
It also takes not even an hour once a week to complete so if you're looking for a new project that needs minimal effort as opposed to a photo a day every day for a year etc, aka something you think is easier to commit to, then maybe this it it!
Do let me know if you also take part, I'd love to see some of your examples.
You can also find me on...

Puerto Rico Hurricanes salvaged some much needed pride with a 3-1 win over Azerbaijan Baku Fires on Saturday night, their first victory of a difficult Season VI campaign.
With neither team able to reach the playoff places in Group D it was the Puerto Rican franchise who appeared hungrier despite economic considerations forcing the home tie to be relocated from Puerto Rico to Aguascalientes in Mexico.
Both teams are to be applauded for agreeing to the change of location, which ensured the integrity of the WSB competition was maintained and there was no adverse effect on the eligibility of any of the boxers involved to qualify for the APB/WSB Olympic Qualification Tournament scheduled late June.
The unfamiliar 'home' surroundings certainly did not seem to have an undue effect on Puerto Rico Hurricanes' multiple medal-winning light heavyweight Juan Carlos Carrillo. The Colombian, who won the Toronto 2015 Pan American Games, maintained control throughout his contest with Azerbaijan Baku Fires' London 2012 Olympic Games competitor, Soltan Migitinov, winning all five rounds.
Azerbaijan Baku Fires' Belarusian boxer Yauheni Ramashkevich got his franchise on the scoreboard in the second bout with a rapid victory against WSB debutant, Jimmy Sanchez. The experienced Belarusian welterweight was dominant from the start and won by KO in round three.
Tall southpaw Jose Rosario was next up for the Puerto Rico Hurricanes and the confident lightweight always had the edge on the Azeri Khasan Arsunkaev. Regularly landing bigger punches, Rosario won four of the five rounds to put the Puerto Rico Hurricanes 2-1 ahead.
It was down to classy Colombian Ceiber David Avila to seal his franchise's first win of Season VI. The Doha 2015 AIBA World Boxing Championship flyweight quarterfinalist settled into a good rhythm early on against Azerbaijan Baku Fires' Magomed Ibiyev and won on a unanimous points decision.
The super heavyweight contest did not take place with boxers from both franchises unable to compete due to health reasons. The final 3-1 scoreline meant Puerto Rico Hurricanes took three points and Azerbaijan Baku Fires a single point.

If January 21 was Christmas
If January 21 was Christmas, then….
T'was the night before Christmas, and up in the tower,
The Donald reflected on his newfound power.
The conservative masses had come out in force,
And delivered a victory that would chart a new course.
The snowflakes were shell-shocked with tears in their eyes,
The media lied to them…what a surprise.
They had been promised a Hillary win,
But the unethical Clinton took one on the chin.
And 'though from all corners celebrities flew,
They made no impression, for they hadn't a clue.
They talked about climate, racism, and such,
And they made up good stories . .But didn't know much.
The fake news and ignorance came at a cost,
And they can't understand all the reasons they lost.
They blame it on Comey and Bernie and Vlad,
But fail to acknowledge the one that was bad.
Yes, Hillary Clinton, in many ways flawed,
Was her own biggest hurdle toward getting the nod.
The campaign exposed her corruption and greed,
And her speeches were punch-less as ten dollar weed.
So out in the streets there arose such a clatter,
It was Soros paid protesters and Black Lives Matter.
With cities to pillage and windows to smash,
They knew not the issues, but needed the cash.
Eight years of Obama had given them cause,
To expect a replacement of their Santa Claus.
But soon the protesters will feel the pain,
When the wheels fall off of the old gravy train.
And now all the snowflakes are riddled with fear,
Upset and offended by things that they'll hear.
The cocoa and crayons will help for a while,
But fact-based opinions will soon cramp their style.
I originally supported, and voted, for Cruz,
In the end, I would vote for whomever they choose.
He wasn't my first choice, but soon I would cede,
The one they call Trump is the one that we need.
I saw him on TV in front of a crowd,
He spoke about veterans, it made me feel proud.
He spoke about energy, safety, and jobs,
Taking this country back from the Washington snobs.
He was dressed in Armani, all tailored and neat,
And the Brunos he wore made the outfit complete.
For a man of his vintage, he seemed rather fit,
And he looked presidential, even I have to admit.
His eyes glowed like embers, his smile was the best,
And his hair was the color of my old hunting vest.
His love for this country was on full display,
And his actions spoke louder than words could say.
He thanked all his voters, and before he was gone,
Saved thousands of jobs while Obama looked on.
The fate of this country is not left to chance,
So, he filled out his cabinet weeks in advance.
The men he had chosen were of the same mind,
Let's set the bar high, and not lead from behind.
He picked up his phone as he rose from his seat,
With a flick of his finger, he sent out this tweet:
"Now Mattis!, now Kelly!' now Sessions! And Pruitt!
On Perry! On Flynn, You're the ones who can do it.
Start lifting restrictions and building the wall,
Now dash away! Dash away! Dash away all!"
The roar of his audience rose from the stands,
He kissed all their babies and shook all their hands.
He answered their questions and calmed all their fears,
They knew it would be a fantastic four years.
Then he jumped in his limo, and off to his jet,
A fellow that Liberals won't soon forget.
He sent one more tweet as the evening expired.

Political Correctness
"News at the speed of lies."
As I See It…
Orwell was Right!
I read this in an article the other day:
"The blessings of American liberty are being relinquished to an 'Orwellian' civilization…"
Lo and behold, that's exactly what I wrote back in 2009….
For quite some time, I have been disappointed, no, call it angry, at what I call the unbridled "fanatical partisanship" so prevalent in this country. Blind acceptance of Party speak without the application of reason is rampant in America today. It reminds me of George Orwell, the visionary author, who provided some context for my concern.
In his 1949 book, "1984", Orwell coined a new word, "Blackwhite." It has nothing to do with race, but everything to do with why we have such deep political divisions, a ruined economy, no real answers, dishonest and less than competent leaders, and an uncertain, and most definitely, an unaffordable future.
Orwell defines Blackwhite: "the ability to accept whatever 'truth' the party puts out, no matter how absurd it may be." Orwell further described it as: "loyal willingness to say black is white when party demands this. It also means the ability to believe that black is white, and more, to know black is white and forget that one has ever believed the contrary."
From Wikipedia: "The word represents the active process of rewriting the past, control of the past being a vital aspect of the Party's control over the present." (Does any of this sound familiar? Anyone in Congress come to mind? Any Presidents you know of? Teachers? Professors? Neighbors? Relatives? You?)
Politics, in general, is nothing more than the promotion of Blackwhite and, if one surveys his surroundings, he will notice that Blackwhite does not require the application of logic or common sense in order to propagate. In fact, it thrives best without either of them. Politicians tirelessly expound on past mistakes, truthfully or not, and ignore the positives, thereby exerting that control over the present. I suppose it would be too much to expect that we learn from the positives of the past, as well as the negatives.
Blackwhite is real! You can see it all around, you can hear it everywhere you go and it owes its very existence to the willful ignorance of the American people and their leaders, most of whom are perfectly content, securely wrapped in their personal cloak of ignorance. If apathy weren't so widespread and more people actually cared enough to reason for themselves, instead of blindly accepting and repeating party speak as if it were gospel, Blackwhite would have no place in our country, a much different country, a much better country. Wouldn't that be nice?
"But, common sense has proven rare and seldom is it seen
In the hallowed halls of Congress and the ranting of the Green.
White is white and black is black, no gray is there to share.
I am right and you are not, no compromise to spare."

It seems that many a designer took a cue from Vivienne Westwood's gorgeous red wedding dresse from last year as they seem to be popping up all over the place. This week marks 2013's Bridal Market in New York and it is the place to be for fashion trends and predications for next year's wedding season. One of which is coloured wedding dresses, mostly a shockingly bright and fashion forward shade of red. Not a massive surprise from the likes of Vera Wang following the introduction of black and tan last season and incredibly refreshing – why does your wedding dress have to be white? Well. Most are saying it doesn't. So here are my top 10 non-white fabulous red wedding dresses! Enjoy!
1. Vivienne Westwood Red Wedding Dress
We saw this in action at the Luxury Wedding Show London last year, head on over to Rockn'Roll Bride for the full collection.

10. Valentine Red Lace Wedding Dress
Oh, where to begin. Pretty much known as the designer who owns the colour red, a Valentino dress for your wedding would be the epitome of class.

The freeze being in June was announced a year ago. There shouldn't really have been anyone expecting us not to have frozen before the end of the month, tbh. > You've done the same thing during the previous release. To be picky, we didn't. The entire of debcamp was available to anyone who wanted to use it for polishing before the squeeze release. In all realistic senses, so was the entire of debconf, given how intentionally relaxed the exception rules were in the very early stages of the freeze. Regards, Adam

I was actually a very good High School debater. My partner and I qualified for the national tournament and won the Ohio State tournament as a junior – I proceeded to embarrass the entire community when I acted like an ass on stage when we won – the next year they actually had to warn people to behave because of me. Ok, yeah I'm a little proud of that.
As a senior, I was a little burned out on the whole thing and screwed around a lot. You had to write your name on the blackboard before each round and I often went by the name Oedipus Laidman or sometimes Tex Laidman. I have some good stories that I'll have to compile later, but check out this video about how inane college debate is. They just spew out non-sensicle words as fast as they can. It's a complete farce and a waste of a really good activity.

Long story short, my head and heart eventually reconciled and I set about selling everything, and this is an easier process than you might think today.
My personal choice and subsequent recommendation to everyone interested in doing the same was MusicMagpie.com. Fast, easy and a handsome payout. There may be competitors, but I don't know them and would encourage any spare moment you have to seeking out something that works best for you. They don't take everything, so good old 2nd-hand record shops and their moody, snobbish, high-brow proprietors are key. Thereafter, birthday presents, charity shops and plastic recycling. Or coasters? But that's a creative territory that I won't be addressing in depth in this post. Go nuts with it though!
I now have a modest collection of intangible music (I lost my digital collections shortly after selling everything, which of course is the biggest danger and was a nightmare realised when it happened), but frequently end up discovering new music as a result of being an avid user of such services as Spotify, Soundcloud, Myspace, Bandcamp, Reverb Nation, Last.fm, Facebook etc. Netflix and LoveFilm are great for films, along with iTunes rentals.
This process was fun, emotional, testing, challenging and very rewarding. And those rewards specifically? Clean Sheeted space creation and money in the bank that wasn't there to start with. I moved this into savings as it would have been a huge ironic waste of time and effort to spend it on more stuff. Now it's most likely to go on gig tickets and holidays - non-physical experiences that you can't put a price on that become memories and future conversations.

Of all the things to discuss about the Turtles content we've seen so far, it's the purist fanboys moaning about the reboot that've gotten the most attention.
Yep, Michael Bay and Jonathan Liebesman's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles reboot hasn't had an easy time convincing fans to embrace its existence - partially based on the fact that they've made some pretty big changes to the source material, like the Turtles' humanoid appearance and their created-in-a-lab origin story - but a fair number of people, myself included, are starting to come around.
Some people have already got to see the full glory of heroes in a half-shell Raphael, Donnatello, Leonardo, and Michaelangelo. And just check out this host of early positive reviews, exclaiming that the movie is going to be, well, surprisingly awesome:
Many children of the '80s remain warily on the fence about this live-action reboot of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, but not this lot! Visually, this movie is looking pretty solid...although that's not to say that every design choice will be universally loved.
Does everything about the TMNT reboot make you want to bawl your eyes out while in the fetal position, or are you looking forward to August 8th?
The TMNT reboot is gonna be...

We are proud to be part of
We are proud to be a member of
The Consortium began as an initiative of the Napa-Lake Workforce Investment Board which envisioned such a collaborative effort as an important tool "to better meet the workforce needs of our employers."
The first meetings were held in the summer of 2013 and the group expanded with each meeting.
The founding members of the Consortium were:
• Beth Pratt, NVC
• Tammie Holloway, Napa County ROP
• Rhonda Slota, Napa Valley Adult Education
• Brett Risley, Sheet Metal Workers Union
• Maria Cisneros, Principal, Valley Oak High School
• Cristy Borquez, Supervisor of Employment Services, WorkforceNapa
• Bruce Wilson, Napa-Lake Workforce Investment Board
• Jim Cassio, Napa-Lake Workforce Investment Board
Our mission was defined as follows: "To better meet the workforce needs of our employers through collaboration."
It was agreed that the NETC meetings would be monthly, on the 3rd Monday of each month, from 3:00 to 5:00 pm. The meeting locations would rotate among interested members, and the host of each meeting would be responsible for the agenda, the meeting notice (email), and for facilitating the meeting.
It was agreed that guests would be welcome at the NETC monthly meetings, but no regular NETC member will extend an invitation to anyone to become a new regular NETC member without first discussing it (in person, or by phone conference, or by email) with the other members to ensure there is a general consensus on the new member.
The Consortium agreed to work together on two sector strategy initiatives in 2014: one for the Healthcare industry and one for the Wine, Hospitality & Tourism industry cluster. A combination of industry roundtable discussions and workforce needs surveys will be used to identify and validate employer workforce needs. The roundtable method will also provide an opportunity for NETC members and guests representing the local education, training and workforce development communities to "listen" to and engage with the employers. It will then be the responsibility of the NETC members to work together in addressing employer workforce needs and other priority issues as identified through our dual but complimentary research methods.

The area around modern day Tampa was first settled in 1823. Tampa was incorporated as a town in 1853 and as a city in 1887. According to the 2009 estimates, the city's population is +/- 343,000 (which makes it the 54th largest city in the United States). The Greater Tampa Bay area has just over 4 million residents and generally includes the Tampa and Sarasota metro areas. The word Tampa might mean "sticks of fire" in the language of the Calusa (a Native American tribe that once lived South of modern day Tampa). This is definately one of the cities that I'd like to visit in the USA one day. This photo of the Tampa Skyline has been selected as the Daily Cool Photo on Running Wolf's Rant for the 9th of November 2010.

There was no tasting at Le Pin this year. Jacques said that the wine was not ready to show as fermentations had been so protracted. Instead we went to Jacques' St Emilion property, L'IF. This property close to the water tower at Troplong Mondot used to be called Haut Plantey. The average age of vines here is 40 years old, planted on a variety of limestone and clay soils. The 2014 was a revelation - the 2015 didn't disappoint. Produced from 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Franc, Jacques finished harvesting the Merlots on the 12th of October, yet despite this relatively late vendage, there is no lack of freshness. It is decadent, luxurious and fragrant; all things we've come to expect, but this has real bass and treble. It is powerful and deep with lithe mulberry fruit, griotte liqueur, wild strawberries, seductive loganberries and much more. It is also wonderfully high toned with vibrant cranberry fruit, flowers and spice. This is all framed by luxurious tannins that caress the mouth. A deeply sexy and complete wine.
Contains Sulphites.
L'If (or Yew tree) is the new wine made by maverick Pomerol producer and owner of Le Pin (Pine tree), Jacques Thienpont. It is situated close to Troplong Mondot and Barde Haut of the limestone Cote of St Emilion. 2011 was the first wine to be bottled under this label (the estate was previously called Haut Plantey). The second wine will continue to be called Chateau Haut Plantey and is made by the wine making team of Jacques and his nephew Cyril (son of Nicolas).
This ancient Abbey is divided into two distinct terroirs. The first is a continuous strip of 2.4 ha (6 acres) located in the commune of Saint Hippolyte, with a southerly exposure, which allows maximum sunlight. The soils here are deep running clay and limestone. The second section, also completely continuous, consists of 5 ha (12.5 acres) on the limestone plateau on the border of the communes of Saint-Emilion and Saint Laurent des Combes, alongside the vineyards of Château Troplong Mondot. Plantings are dominated by Merlot as one would expect in this corner of Bordeaux - 70% Merlot, 25% Cabernet-Franc and 5% Cabernet-Sauvignon.
St-Émilion is a very different region to those of the Médoc, dominated by small-holding farmers and estates rather than grand Châteaux. Merlot is widely planted as is Cabernet Franc in some parts. The wines are enormously variable in style depending on the terroir, the grape variety make-up and winemaking style. Loosely the region is divided between the limestone Côtes, Graves or gravelly limestone plateau or the sandy alluvial soils nearer the Dordogne. Traditionally Médoc wines were trade from Bordeaux and St Emilions from Libourne so they have their own classification system separate to that of 1855. The classification is revised every ten years and falls into four categories, St Emilion, St Emilion Grand Cru, St Emilion Grand Cru Classé and St Emilion Premier Grand Cru Classé Most of the district's best properties are either on the steep, clay-limestone hillsides immediately below the town or on a gravelly section of the plateau west of St Emilion itself abutting Pomerol. There are several high profile estates in the region, including Cheval Blanc, Ausone, Figeac, Le Dôme, Valandraud and Pavie.

IB stands for In Bond. Wines that are stored In Bond have not had UK Duty and VAT paid on them.
Most of our wines are available for purchase under bond, as fine wines often need to be laid down in order to allow them to mature. Many clients choose therefore to store them in our bonded warehouse and pay the tax as and when they wish to get the wines delivered. Please note that Wines purchased In Bond can be exported to non-EU countries without the need for Duty and VAT to be paid.
DP stands for duty paid. If you wish to get wines delivered for drinking, the duty and VAT will need to be paid as it leaves its bonded state in the warehouse. The wine is then said to be duty paid.
All taxes must be paid in order for us to be authorised to ship or deliver wine (unless the wine is bonded and being moved to another bonded warehouse or being shipped directly outside of the EU.)
EP stands for En Primeur. These wines are currently held with the Estate and Domaine's we work with and will be shipped in due course.

The Origin b2 detector uses GPS satellite technology to compare the Monaro's position to the known sites of speed cameras and then warn drivers with an audible bleep.
The £430 ($1046) device also has a built-in laser detector and another optional plug-in radar detector that can pick-up signals from both fixed cameras and police shoulder-held speed guns. The bolt-on detector sticks to the car's dashboard with Velcro and takes power from the cigarette lighter. Vauxhall dealers stock the device and will fit it to the Monaro for a small charge.
However, speed camera detectors are controversial, attracting the ire of road safety campaigners.
In response, Vauxhall argues the device helps drivers slow down. "This is a safety device and it can warn a driver of all sorts of other useful information, like accident black spots and schools," a spokesman says.
The 297 kW, V8-powered Monaro is a prime target for the growing number of speed cameras in Britain. And by the end of this year, British roads will have more than 13,000 speed camera sites – three times as many as last year.
In the same time span, the number of speeding tickets issued is set to rise from about one million to three million – one every 10 seconds.
