CAMBRIDGE — Mike Starling of WHCP, Cambridge Community Radio, wants to get the word out about getting the word out — spoken word for the blind, that is.
This Thursday is World Sight Day and Mr. Starling, president and general manager of 101.5, will launch the WHCP Radio Reading Service for the Blind. Partnering with the Metropolitan Washington Ear, a 24/7, 365-days-per-year reading service, WHCP will make the offering totally free to the print disabled who may qualify by providing proper medical documentation.
Using funds from a grant provided by the nonprofit radio station's board, WHCP is getting the program started with 25 $50 radio receivers that will be distributed in the community. WHCP's first broadcast was July 4, 2015. When Mr. Starling first opened the station, it was his intention to eventually offer the reading service.
He discovered, through a conversation with Dr. Paul D. Brant, of Cambridge Family Eye Care and former president of the Maryland Optometric Association, that there are hundreds of print disabled people in Dorchester County. Mr. Starling hopes to reach all of the print disabled, and also intends to eventually localize readings.
"There are three things we need," Mr. Starling said. "We need to identify the print disabled that would be interested in having the service on a free basis. Then, of course, we need volunteers that would come in and be interested in reading local publications. The third thing is to do sufficient fundraising so that we've got plenty of receivers as we start getting a backlog of people that are saying 'I'd like to get one.'"
With a number of receivers already in hand, the first was given to Molly K. Spicer, one of Mr. Starling's neighbors. When he first moved to Cambridge in 2007, he often heard someone singing old country songs, standards and Gospel from his backyard. He spoke to a neighbor who told him that Ms. Spicer is blind and has sung outside for years.
"It's just wonderful being serenaded like that when you're outside," Mr. Starling said. "She would sit there for hours on end just singing in the backyard."
Based in Silver Spring, the Metropolitan Washington Ear offers readings of books, newspapers including The Washington Post, and magazines. To supplement the round-the-clock service, Mr. Starling hopes to get local volunteers, including high school students, to help launch a local reading service. He would like volunteers to read selections from the Banner, Attractions magazine, and other local publications. He will also invite local authors to read their books.
"This will be a training ground for the students that we're working with at the high school to learn broadcasting. So, they'll come in and operate, staff the controls," of the sound board while volunteers read, Mr. Starling said. "We have three interns from our local high schools already."
Mr. Starling also aims to train high school students to help distribute the radio receivers to the reading disabled and teach them the basics of operation. He said that the station's broadcast range does not reach far beyond Dorchester County's borders, but people in Talbot County have inquired about the new service. The service will also be web-based and can be accessed by the medically qualified through the Internet.
"We hope to spread the word up and down the Eastern Shore," Mr. Starling said. "If you are beyond the reach of our signal, we'll give you access to the streaming service."
But for now, Mr. Starling's goal is to reach out to the Dorchester community. For now, WHCP representatives are communicating with area optometrists, ophthalmologists and Lions clubs.
"It's our aim to try to find all of the reading disabled and make them aware of the service and say, 'if you'd like a radio, we'll do our best to get you on the list and get you one,'" he said. "The key to this is the service is it's absolutely free. We didn't want economics to be a barrier in order to have access to this service. The rest of us take it for granted that we can read the newspaper and stay informed."
For more information about the WHCP Radio Reading Service for the Blind, how to get a receiver or streaming service, volunteer or donate, call 443-637-6000 or e-mail email@example.com.

Need Instructions!!
Hello all. I am so glad this message board exists. I really hope someone will be able to help me. I am about 75% done with the Brilliant Blossoms Wonderart latch hook and my instructions have disappeared! I can't find them anywhere and I would really like to get this latch hook done before Christmas as I am gifting this to my grandmother. If anyone has the instructions, could you please post a picture of them for me? Thank you so much!

You all fail to see what this thread is about.It's not "What pokemon would be more likely to kill you?" or "Which pokemon is more likely to be met in real life?"It's simply: Which death would be worse, by the ridiculously microscopic chance of ever facing one of the two pokemon with the ability to end your life?

'I'm out of work:' Open Bonnet Carre Spillway hurts local fisherman
The Bonnet Carre Spillway is currently open to keep the Mississippi River from overflowing and damaging the levee system. But crab fisherman say there's another side to the water diversion: The longer it stays open, the more damage it will do to the fishing industry. Fisherman along Lake St. Catherine say this time of the year their traps are usually brimming with crabs, but Saturday when Eyewitness News came to look, most of the traps had been pulled out of the water. >Video, click to read<15:16

Invasive mussels challenge commercial whitefish fishing in the Great Lakes
Denise Purvis' family began fishing the waters of northern Lake Huron off Manitoulin Island in 1882. Over the years their operation came to expect the unpredictability of a livelihood dependent on the ability to capture wild fish. Purvis came back to the family business in the mid-1990s after college. Her return home coincided with the arrival of zebra and quagga mussels into the Great Lakes. The mussels have since become synonymous with the problem of invasive species in the Great Lakes. They've colonized the lakes and negatively impacted their ecology. For Purvis and the dwindling number of Great Lakes commercial whitefish fishers, the fishery has fallen on hard times. >Video, photo's click to read<10:28
Alaska's biggest ever commercial seaweed harvest is happening right now
The biggest commercial seaweed harvest in Alaska history is unfolding this week in waters off Kodiak, one slick blade of sugar kelp at a time. By the end of the two-week harvest, two Kodiak sea farmers expect to haul in a total of 150,000 to 200,000 pounds of kelp. This year's harvest is at least three times larger than last year's, said Lexa Meyers, who co-owns Kodiak Kelp Co. Subsistence seaweed harvests have been happening along Alaska's coastline for millennia. But Alaska's commercial seaweed industry is only a few years old, and growing fast. >click to read<10:04
By dint of hard work
It's a story of being in the right place at the right time. But mostly, it's a success story by dint of a long life of hard work. It shows on Capt. Willy Roe's face. He's earned his wrinkles and thinning hair. But there's a cragginess, a waterman's weathered visage that tells its own story of too much sun, frigid gales and choppy seas on the Chesapeake Bay and its rivers and creeks. An official old-timer at 85, Roe still is working. >click to read<09:00

THE Federal Government finally roused itself from its tepid, partisan response to the orgy of killings and arson by Fulani militia late in January by empanelling a committee of 10, headed by Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo. With nine state governors on board, it is expected to address the lingering problem of frequent attacks by Fulani herdsmen and militias and their clashes with farmers, while also apprehending perpetrators of the violence. But this is diversionary: a committee is no substitute for the responsibility of President Muhammadu Buhari to crush lawlessness and impunity.
Not surprisingly, the move has been met with scepticism. One of the decisions taken at the meeting of the National Economic Council held in Abuja, it seeks to douse mounting tension over the unchecked orgies of murder and pillaging by Fulani herdsmen and militias. While the communities in Benue, Taraba, Nasarawa, Adamawa, Kaduna and Plateau states especially, that have borne the brunt of the mass killings, arson and forceful occupation of their land, distrust it, the Fulani and their supporters view the panel with contempt.
For the victims and the North-Central and southern states, as well as regional socio-political groups, the committee is a diversion from the reality of herdsmen terrorism and official inertia. Benue and Taraba states, for instance, reiterate that the primary task of the Federal Government is to identify the marauders, disarm them and bring them to justice. Ohanaeze Ndigbo, which speaks for the South-East, sees in it only a continuation of the government's insincerity. The cry by its National Publicity Secretary, Achi Okpaga, that "Buhari should (instead) have ordered the Army to put a stop to the murderous activities of the herdsmen" cannot be faulted.
The irreducible primary responsibility of any government is to guarantee the security of lives and property; the Buhari government has been failing in this regard, appearing helpless and unwilling to enforce the law as armed herdsmen and their militia unleash terror across the country. While others may come short of calling the committee "nonsensical" as the spokesman of the Yoruba grouping, Afenifere, Yinka Odumakin, labelled it, the consensus is that this crisis is a clear case of crime and punishment and official condoning of impunity by brigands that the Nobel laureate, Wole Soyinka, said "have declared war against the nation" and whose "weapon is undiluted terror."
Opposition has also come from Fulani groups and their allies. The Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria sees no value in the committee as long as the governors of Benue and Taraba states, who signed anti-grazing bills into law, are members. In line with their narrative of the crisis, all such laws must first be repealed, the right of herders to graze anywhere acknowledged, and the reopening and designation of grazing routes and reserves guaranteed, as the minimum conditions for peace.
The government should stop running around in circles. A new report by Amnesty International says at least 717 persons have been killed in the last two years in herdsmen-farmers clashes; it cites 168 killed in the first four weeks of this year, a figure local communities say is grossly under-stated. Solving a problem requires an accurate diagnosis. Unfortunately, the Fulani herdsmen conundrum has been enveloped in politics, religion, sectionalism and partisanship. With Nigeria's cohesion under threat, leaders at all levels should act more responsibly and stamp out lawlessness.
The reality is obvious: decades of drought and desertification have denuded vegetation and dried up many natural water sources in the far Northern states, prompting cattle entrepreneurs to dispatch herders far more frequently and in geometrically larger numbers southwards. But, according to the International Crisis Group, this pits them against farmers and sedentary communities in the Middle-Belt and the South who, also facing population pressure, are confronted with herds eating their crops and grass and destroying their farms.
Rather than adopt the sensible option of ranching, leasing land and adopting effective afforestation, erosion control, irrigation and water supply schemes, the Northern states, cattle owners and herdsmen insist on nomadic pastoralist practices as their age-long "way of life." They insist on states and other Nigerians ceding land to them for grazing routes and reserves. They expect the Federal Government to fund new ways of doing cattle business. As the Oyo State Governor, Abiola Ajimobi, rightly puts it, "Herding is a business and everyone who engages in such should make adequate provision for his or her business to grow without involving the Federal Government. If we provide land for cattle colony, who will provide land for poultry and pig farmers? In Oyo State, we won't allow cattle to roam about."
But elsewhere, creativity prevails. Once run as free-ranging cows on its expansive Pampas plains, Argentina's shift to ranching enabled it to become the world's third largest exporter of beef after Brazil and Australia. The cattle and sheep industry that injects $16.95 billion into Australia's economy annually formally employs over 200,000 people and is ranked as one of the world's largest and most efficient commercial livestock producers; the industry relies on ranches and "cattle stations," not nomadic pastoralists. The desert kingdom of Saudi Arabia has also vigorously adopted ranching and developed an efficient system of grass import and distribution while aspiring to self-sufficiency in beef production.
Buhari and key functionaries should stop making excuses for Fulani mass murderers or seeking unworkable and unjust solutions like grazing routes, reserves and lately "colonies." Cattle farming is a business. Insisting on nomadic grazing on other people's land is no longer feasible or enforceable; such people also need their land for farming, businesses and housing. Cattle-rich Northern states can acquire and set up reserves; no state should be compelled to do so. The government's paternalistic treatment of herdsmen and cattle herders is discriminatory, provocative and divisive. Cattle herding is not more important than fishing, snail breeding or any other business.
The committee should, therefore, not be used to legitimise discrimination and official inertia: it should not distract from government's reasonability to track down, apprehend and prosecute murderers and trespassers. States should resist any attempt to repeal anti-grazing laws; they should rather be vigorously enforced. The sponsors of armed militias should be identified as well as the source of the sophisticated arms they wield. Buhari should act as a unifying national leader and lead the campaign against lawlessness.

I can't say I all my life have had preferences towards veganism or even vegetarianism. As little and as a teenager, I ate what was served, either it was pancakes or some meat stew. At 13 or 14 something, we had Biology at school and I realized I was very interested in how the body functions. So interested, in fact, that I never had to do any homework. All knowledge we were given hooked on in my brain already on the preparing lessons. I just checked if there were any numbers I had to remember.
This didn't make me a vegetarian, but it was the beginning of my huge interest in body functions, health and how food impinges upon our health. And it was in the early eighties this interest began to grow in me. So between periods of vegetarian eating, studying anatomy and physiology and the digestion and nutrition processes, and many periods of "ordinary life", aka eating meat, eggs etc. I more and more turned into vegan thinking.
It's never too late
for a new beginning
in your life
Eventually, due to time and testing, trying, learning, I am where I am now. Considering going vegan.
At this very moment, I consider myself being circa 80-90% vegan. Mostly eating meat, chicken and such when I don't have any other option – or when I'm attending a party of some sort. Like on Christmas day. Today, now at this very moment, I have one egg in an apple-cake in making, and one left in the fridge. Those two, I've decided, will be my last eggs. I also have some butter left, and after lots of thinking, I decided to keep the butter for the time being. But try to lessen the amount I use.
And that's all the animal products I now have available!
So, starting at Jan 15th, I've decided to at first give this a month trial. Just vegan + some butter. I'll try to learn more cooking.
This time, I think I'll cope without eggs, which would be terrific.
It will be a bit of a challenge, but somehow I'll cope. It's the rest of the old habits I'll have to overcome, but also how to deal with the fact I can't eat wheat, rye or even oats.
Why 15th and not today? Well, I do have one egg left – and the 15th is also my birthday… 😀

1898-Battle of Santiago Harbor- U.S. fleet under Admiral Sampson defeated the Spanish in Cuba. The U.S fleet so heavily outgunned the Spanish ships that the Spanish admiral is remembered at home as a hero for even attempting the fight to keep up the national honor. James Stuart Blackton, the first American animator, was down in Cuba with other correspondents covering the war. He went back to New York and claimed to have live, eyewitness movie footage of the battle. Of course, he didn't, so he faked it on a set with toy boats, sparklers and cigar smoke. Since no one had seen real footage yet, he got away with it. Blackton added to his resume by inventing the movie newsreel.

Welcome back the Trivia Blog
July 2nd, 2006
Dear Gang,
Allow me to re-introduce my trivia page, which had gone dormant when I left the Gang of Seven settup last May to direct a short in Taiwan. I am flattered and grateful to all who enjoyed reading them. I began doing a e-mail almanac of historical aprocrypha in 1992 on my little Mac II at Walt Disney. This was at the suggestion of Stacy Slossy, Disney chief Peter Schneider's secretary. Since then the e-mails grew to hundreds and went around the world. I knew they were being fowarded to The Rand Corp, the Pentagon, ILM, Microsoft, Paris, London, ALexandria Egypt, Beijing, Ankara, Scotland, San Bernadino, San Francisco and NYU. For years people have told me I should have my own website.
Well, here it is.
So lets ring up the curtain! Oh, for a Muse of Fire! Kings for Players and Nations for a Stage! What fools we mortals be! ( apologizes to the Bard...)

Welcome to my website!
June 29th, 2006
Dear Friends,
Welcome to my website. Right now it is ThomasSito.com but I hope by August it will be just TomSito.com. You see, for now Warner Bros owns my name! It seems in 1998 when I began co-directing the animation of the film OSMOSIS JONES, Warner Bros as a precaution bought the domain names tomsito.com and my partner pietkroon.com. I haven't worked for Warners since 2003, but the name keeps going on. I guess over the years some preprogram keeps renewing the subscription. I've talked to Warners now and gotten the name back, but it must wait until their subscription runs out July 31st. Then the change will be automatic thanks to my brilliant web-meister Josh Morgan, no relation to Morgan the Pirate or Revolutionary General Dan Morgan, the Old Wagoneer. So look around and enjoy the site, I hope to add on in the future.

Does The Yellow Ever Go Away?
Alas, Virginia, no! And, by "no" I mean "absolutely not." I am afraid it's the "pecking order" thing embedded deep in the genes of all multi-cellular life. Oh, yeah, you got your goody 2-shoes, reformers of human nature, tolerance, Dr. Phil, Dr. Spock, Dr. Fraud… Freud… but, all of that is basically just spittin' into the wind — you just can't change a leopard's spots. At least, not overnight. A million years or so of natural selection might do the trick, but, really, who has that kind of time? Best thing to do is just go with the flow, adapt to it, resign yourself to it, etc… There will always be a little yellow in every headline-grabbing story. (Uhmmm, on a personal note, Virginia, you don't still believe in Santa, do you?)
Marketing. That's what they call "yellow" these days. Like, if it's playoff time, they media-hype old rivalries or even print stuff that CREATES controversy just to make sales; or, if it's election time, they play on old phobias and Elysian dreams. The line-up to identify the current opinion hot button contains the usual suspects: economy, jobs, taxes, global warming, integrity (we're talking about politicians here, right?"), improper conduct, family values, lifestyles… They parade before the editors until someone says, "There! That one. That's the incumbent's (or challenger's) Achilles' heel." Then, depending on which runner is favored by the media, the order goes out, "Minimize the importance of that" or "Play it up really big."
And, by "minimize," they mean, "Bury it. The stupid masses needn't bother themselves with such trivia."
And, by "play it up," they mean, "Exaggerate the crap out of it. Shock and awe the stupid masses into our line of thinking… and voting."
I do not mean to imply that main stream publishers and broadcasters are subject to being biased like the rest of us. If you are having to infer anything from my text, then I am not being so clear as I think I am. So, just to be sure you get my drift: ALL MEDIA ARE BIASED, PRONE TO EXAGGERATE THE IMPORTANCE OF THEIR OFFERINGS, AND TAILOR THEIR MESSAGES TO A TARGET AUDIENCE. Does that make it clearer? Like Diogenes' search for an honest man, the search for an unbiased reporter/blatherer can go into serious over-time.
Responsibility and veracity are very important in information transmission. But, it is the individual recipient who bears full responsibility to test the veracity of information content and its sources. You have the freedom to either be brainwashed without resistance, or, to demand to see the ingredient notice for the washing solution so you at least have some reading material during the rinse cycle.

Fragilecologies Archives
27 January 1994
It seems that societies, in an attempt to drive their populations to greater achievements, have often resorted to the use of such notions as frontiers and breadbaskets.
The mention of frontiers tends to spark those with adventurous spirits to go to those frontiers and push them beyond their present limits. It's partly a conquest thing. Frontiers afford new opportunities to develop, exploit, hide, start anew, and so forth. The American historian Frederick Jackson Turner developed a hypothesis about frontiers. Throughout the history of North America, there have been several frontiers to conquer — or to explore and then conquer. Many frontiers have been identified — on earth, the oceans; in medicine, the human body; in space, other galaxies. It seems that whenever we as individuals, bureaucracies, or nations become bored or confined, we search for new frontiers toward which to turn our attention.
The truth of the matter is that new frontiers are almost limitless. They are identified and pursued, if not in the name of resources to exploit or ideologies or people to dominate, then in the name of knowledge. Deserts may become a "new" frontier to those who see the earth's population numbers as being beyond the land's physical carrying capacity. As a result, scientists, among others, turn their attention toward ecosystems that are neglected after having achieved frontier status in earlier times, to see if there may be new ways to eke out some benefit from further exploitation of that environment. Where can we put the surplus populations (beyond carrying capacity)? Let's try the deserts (where, by the way, civilizations began).
In a similar fashion, the notion of the breadbasket also provides a stimulus to societies to improve certain aspects of their quality of life, most notably food production. Today, America is seen as the breadbasket of the world. It produces surplus amounts of food which it then shares (sells) to others (those who can afford to pay for it and, to a much lesser extent, to those who are in need).
Breadbaskets have been identified in other parts of the globe as well. For example, the southern Sudan's Gezira scheme was identified as one; Ethiopia's Awash Valley as another. The latter two were identified as potential breadbaskets by donor countries seeking to invest in the Third World. In the former Soviet Union, the Ukraine was considered a breadbasket for the USSR, as was the region of the Virgin Lands scheme in western Siberia and northern Kazakhstan.
The truth of the matter is that there are few areas that can be viewed as real breadbaskets. While there may be all kinds of hopes and desires placed on finding such bioregions, they are seldom realized. Either the technology could not deliver what had been promised, or the soils were not as robust as scientists, development specialists, or politicians thought. A variety of factors mitigated against converting that perceived potential into a highly productive region.
So the notion of "breadbasket" has been used to push a different kind of frontier forward, to prompt people to produce more from lands that, in most cases, cannot sustain higher levels of production, or to find ways to bioengineer new kinds of edible products.
In addition, to keep some of these breadbaskets productive (not necessarily fertile), considerable amounts of inputs are often required in the form of pesticides, herbicides, insecticides, irrigation facilities, and technologies imported from different regions. Thus, the cost of keeping alive a sustainable breadbasket may far outweigh the cost of seeking other ways and places in which to eke out increased agricultural production from the land.
So, frontiers and breadbaskets are really a state of mind. Anything that is a challenge can be considered a "new" frontier. Each generation determines what its frontiers (or challenges) will be. They can be found inside a white blood cell, in the Milky Way, in cleaning up our waste, in the history of the Middle Ages, or in our minds. Each frontier (such as bioengineering new foods) attracts different people whose interest in challenges are piqued by them. They are not in short supply. And as long as some of us think about challenges, they will be there to conquer.

Honda to Recall Around 1 Million Vehicles Again
The recall is due to air bag problems once again.
According to WTEN, Honda is more than likely to recall around 1 million older Hondas in the U.S. and in Canada again because there have been reports that the Takata driver's air bag inflators that were installed during previous recalls are still causing problems.
The recall has already hit Canada and shows that Honda is recalling many of its most popular model vehicles for a second time, the models that are being recalled are from as far back as 2001 and as recent as 2010.
The models being recalled are as follows:
Honda Accord from 2001 through 2007.
CR-V from 2002 through 2006.
Civic from 2001 through 2005.
Element from 2003 through 2010.
Odyssey from 2002 through 2004.
Pilot from 2003 through 2008.
Ridgeline from 2006.
Also covered are Acura luxury models including the MDX from 2003 through 2006, the EL from 2001 through 2005, the TL from 2002 and 2003 and the CL from 2003.
WTEN said that the reason for the recall is because the company Takata used the chemical ammonium nitrate to create the small explosion needed to inflate the air bags. The problem is that the chemical can deteriorate over time due to many factors and they said it can burn too fast and blow apart a metal canister. If that happens it will send shrapnel into drivers and passengers. At least 23 people have died from the problem worldwide and hundreds more were injured.
According to reports Honda is planning to issue a public statement at some point today and once they do we will update this story.
Once the recall is made official and you find that you have one of the recalled vehicles you should take your vehicles to your local Honda dealer to have the inflators replaced.

Alongside the puzzle of the postlaundry lost sock, one of life's eternal mysteries has to be the hiring of PR specialists. Companies ostensibly employ press representatives to get word out about their services and products. But surprisingly few of these so-called professional communicators possess communications skills. In the world of arts PR, where theater, opera, and dance companies have to fight for dwindling column inches, knowing how to interact with journalists is key — and no one does the job better in the Bay Area than Erica Lewis-Finein. She represents several smallish San Francisco-based companies such as the Cutting Ball (whose co-artistic director dubs her "the best"), as well as the Aurora Theatre in Berkeley. Lewis-Finein approaches her job with professionalism, creativity, and a quiet sense of humor. She gets out the message without being pushy, is always responsive, comes up with excellent story ideas, and — most important of all — knows when to back off.

The EIOPA is typically the one watching over the market but it is now facing scrutiny for two practices. The European insurance watchdog is normally the organization responsible for watching over the industry and making sure the practices are kept legal and appropriate. However, the European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority (EIOPA) is now under investigation to check into its own practices. The European Court of Auditors is conducting an audit looking primarily into two main areas. The insurance watchdog will be investigated in the following main areas: its supervision…Read More

Insurance industry news in Europe reveals considerable stress vulnerability
The EIOPA released the results of a test that it conducted on the sector and showed a "double hit" could be painful. Recent insurance industry news from the European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority (EIOPA) has revealed the results of a form of "stress test" that it conducted and which has now shown that this sector has a higher vulnerability to a stress scenario in which there would be a "double hit" combination of a decrease in asset values and a reduced risk free rate. Overall, the testing showed that…Read More
Insurance industry watchdog prepares European insurers for new risk rules
The group has taken action to get companies and regulators ready for broad scale changes. This week, the European Union's insurance industry watchdog took considerable action to begin the preparations of insurers as well as national regulators, for the implementation of new regulations that will lead to widespread changes to their risk and capital management. The EIOPA issued a draft of the guidelines that it is recommending for a number of insurer functions. The European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority (EIOPA) released its guidelines draft for the insurance industry, which…Read More
Insurance news announcement from Europe works to counterbalance low interest rate risk
EU watchdog is now calling for a joint effort to help to counter the risks presented by the rates. The latest insurance news in the European Union includes a call from the insurance watchdog for a joint action among all of the national regulators for helping to counteract the negative impact that the low interest rates are having on the financial security of insurers. This will help those companies to be able to protect policyholders more effectively and at a lower cost. This topic has been making insurance news for…Read More
EU insurance regulations may be put on hold
Insurance regulations may be delayed for up to two years European insurance companies could get a break from the looming insurance regulations that are coming from the European Union. These regulations, which will cause serious changes in the European insurance industry and could push some smaller companies out of business, are currently scheduled to take effect in January, 2014. The insurance regulations put strict capital requirements on insurance companies and have been the source of controversy for some time. Now, a top European insurance regulator is working to have the…Read More
Euro crisis may be worse than the economic recession of 2008, say insurers
The European financial crisis is showing no sign of slowing down as the European Union continues to look for ways to stop what may soon become the world's most catastrophic financial calamity. EU regulators have turned to the insurance industry to help find a solution to the crisis, but insurers have been leery of lending any aid, as the countries involved in the crisis are exposed to massive risk. The European Insurance and Occupational Pension Authority has released a statement regarding the crisis, calling it worse than the economic disaster…Read More
1 in 10 European insurance companies fail stress test despite a robust market
The European insurance industry is in a state of flux, according to a new study from the European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority (EIOPA). The organizations recently conducted a stress test of nearly 130 as yet unidentified insurers. The test showed that the insurance market is quite robust, which means that most insurers are able to procure new clients and produce significant revenue. However, the thirteen unnamed insurance companies failed the test. Based upon its findings, the EIOPA estimates that these insurers would not be able to handle the impact…Read More

This past weekend, Heroes & Villains Fan Fest brought all the stars (and news) to London. While in attendance, Hayley Atwell revealed what a third season of Agent Carter would've looked like if ABC had given the Marvel series another chance.
In particular, Atwell said the season would've explored Peggy's English upbringing and the lasting effect her brother had. Tying in with that thread, the season would've also delved more deeply into Peggy's evolving relationship with the Jarvis family, which is something Atwell said she had been excited to explore.
Though the end of the second season left some unresolved plot threads, not even Atwell knows what direction they were headed. She said that there were often script additions during production, which kept the actors on their toes. For instance, Atwell didn't know that Chad Michael Murray's character, Thompson, was shot at the end of season two until the actor told her.
Both Atwell and fans of the show have been clamoring to see more of Peggy Carter since the show was cancelled by ABC due to low ratings, and a return via a service like Netflix has already been ruled out. Thankfully, Atwell was able to revisit the character briefly in Marvel's Avengers: Secret Wars – the fourth season of the Disney XD series Avengers Assemble.
Beyond that, fans know that Peggy Carter lived a long life given the events of Captain America: Civil War, so there's always still the possibility that the character could show up again in the MCU via flashbacks or through movies set in the past.
For now, Agent Carter fans will have to make due with the details Atwell gave this past weekend and imagine all of the danger and drama Peggy could've gotten into in a third season. And maybe one day we'll find out who it was that Peggy married.

Every Marvel Cinematic Universe Superhero So Far Ranked from…
The Marvel Cinematic Universe has been around for over 8 years now and with that comes the realization that there have been a lot of characters introduced into it. Each film has their own unique characters and situations and they all tie together, meaning that there are a lot of superheros present within this universe. There are even more characters being added constantly which includes the newest entry, Guardians of the Galaxy vol. 2 and its unique cast of interesting heroes. All of these characters have their merits as far as unique traits go, but for this list I've decided to compile them from the worst (or least interesting) to the best (or most interesting). Now without further ado onto the list!

News Release from Office of the Governor
HONOLULU — Gov. David Y. Ige, the Maui Regional Board and the Corporate Board of the Hawaii Health Systems Corporation (HHSC) today signed an agreement transferring the operation and management of the HHSC Maui Region health care facilities from the state to Kaiser Permanente.
"This agreement ensures quality healthcare services and improved delivery of those services for the Maui region. The governance structure assures a continued role for the Maui community in the governance of the facilities, and revenues generated in the Maui Region facilities will be invested back into those facilities," said Gov. Ige.
The state and Kaiser will now begin negotiations for the lease of the real property and facilities. We expect the lease to close on June 30. Kaiser will begin to operate the hospitals on July 1.
All parties are working together to develop transition plans for affected Maui Region employees.
"We are honored to have been selected to operate the Maui and Lāna'i hospitals," said Mary Ann Barnes RN, president Kaiser Foundation Health Plan and Hospitals, Hawaii Region." We are committed to serving all patients, regardless of their health insurance, and working alongside medical staff from the community to bring high-quality care to the people of Maui and Lāna'i."
"This is a transformational opportunity, and the Board's decision ensures the sustainability of a comprehensive healthcare delivery system for the people of Maui and Lāna'i," said Avery Chumbley, Chair, Maui Region Hawai'i Board of Directors. "The Maui Board's decision to select Kaiser Permanente was based upon their willingness to work collaboratively with our physicians and staff to provide compassionate, quality healthcare."
"The signing of this agreement is the culmination of years of efforts by many individuals inspired by their vision for health services in their community. I applaud their efforts and feel honored to have been a small part of it," said Dr. Linda Rosen, CEO, Hawaii Health Systems Corporation. "As a physician who has worked in healthcare across the state for over 30 years, I am confident this change will bring stability and growth in healthcare jobs for employees, along with increased health services for the residents and visitors of Maui and Lana'i."
About Hawaii Health Systems Corporation (HHSC)
HHSC operates 13 facilities throughout the state of Hawai'i: East Hawaii region: Hilo Medical Center, Ka'u Hospital, Hale Ho'ola Hamakua and Yukio Okutsu State Veterans Home; West Hawaii region: Kona Community Hospital and Kohala Hospital; Maui region; Maui Memorial Medical Center, Kula Hospital, and Lanai Community Hospital; O'ahu region: Leahi Hospital and Maluhia; and Kauai region: West Kauai Medical Center, and Samuel Mahelona Memorial Hospital, in addition to two non-profit affiliates. In 1996, at a time when health care services were not widely available from private providers, the Legislature established HHSC to assume that responsibility. Twenty years later, HHSC continues to fulfill the state's promise to provide quality, hometown healthcare.

The Neglected Tropical Diseases Support Center (NTD-SC) at The Task Force for Global Health is currently soliciting proposals for operational research aimed at improving access to morbidity management and disability prevention (MMDP).
The NTD-SC and its partners are committed to promoting collaborations between country programmes and local and international researchers, which will lead to endemic-country capacity building and provide value for money through efficient use of resources.
With this call, the NTD-SC seeks proposals for operational research nested in national programmes targeting lymphatic filariasis, onchocerciasis, schistosomiasis, trachoma, and leprosy. Projects will be funded with UK aid from the British government via its support for the Coalition for Operational Research on NTDs (COR-NTD), for which the NTD-SC serves as Secretariat.
Projects should be aligned with the targets of the World Health Organization (WHO) and address key barriers to the elimination of
- lymphatic filariasis and trachoma by 2020,
- zero leprosy by 2020,
- the elimination of onchocerciasis by 2025,
- or the sustained control of schistosomiasis by 2020,
as well as focus on alleviating the suffering of affected populations.
Eligibility and Funding
Applications will be judged on their potential impact. There is no formal ceiling on the value of each award; however, submitted proposals must represent value for money. Furthermore, preference will be given to country-led projects.
For further information please see the NTD-SC website.

Gelatin silver print
Gift of William Kistler, 1977.682
One of the greatest challenges involved in aerial photography was deciphering the resulting images, as familiar landscapes often appeared as abstract patterns. Steichen recognized the need to create an efficient system of interpretation, and he fought for adequate training programs throughout his active duty, as he later explained:
The success with which aerial photographs can be exploited is measured by the natural and trained ability of those concerned with their study of interpretation. The aerial photograph is in itself harmless and valueless. It enters into the category of "instruments of war" when it has disclosed the information written on the surface of the print. The average vertical aerial photographic print is upon first acquaintance as uninteresting and unimpressive a picture as can be imagined. Without considerable experience and study it is more difficult to read than a map, for it badly represents nature from an angle we do not know.[1]
This diagram, from a 1917 book published by the army to aid the interpretation of aerial photography, shows how battlefield landmarks might appear from the air.

MINNEAPOLIS, MINN. (January 5, 2018) ClickSWITCH, a turnkey solution that simplifies the switch of recurring payments and deposits for financial institutions' new and existing account holders, announced its third year of consecutive revenue growth since the company's inception in 2014. In 2017, ClickSWITCH more than doubled its revenue, increased switch numbers by 125% and boosted its current client count to over 325. ClickSWITCH now has financial institution clients in all 50 states, Puerto Rico and Canada.
This year ClickSWITCH made multiple key hires to support their increasing momentum. These include a new Chief Financial Officer, Chief Technology Officer, Director of Account Management, Software Architect and Product Manager. In order to accommodate employee growth, ClickSWITCH headquarters were relocated to a larger space in December, increasing office space in Minneapolis, Minnesota and the operations office in Baxter, Minnesota to nearly 13,000 square feet.

Carotenoids—the naturally occurring bright red, yellow, and orange pigments in fruits and vegetables like carrots—are powerful antioxidants. Doctors found three carotenoids in particular were most closely linked to better mood; beta-carotene in both men and women, and lutein and zeaxanthin in women only. Lutein and zeaxanthin also help protect eyesight, as many earlier studies have confirmed. Discussing their findings, doctors said antioxidants may help reduce oxidative damage in the brain and hope new studies reveal more health benefits of antioxidants.

Time Magazine made the news recently with an advertisement about expense report fraud designed to promote its employee ethics hotline. Some viewed the ad as Time encouraging a 'tattletale policy' that pushed employees to act as workplace snitches. The urge to control expense report costs is understandable. After all, it's estimated this type of fraud costs businesses as much as $1 billion a year. However, pitting employees against each other isn't the way to fix the issue of inflated expense reports. Instead, companies should proactively vet their expense reports to prevent fraud.
Receipts are the old way to do it, but receipts can be easy to forge, especially with all the technology available. The good news is that new strides in technology can also help to fix the problem. One way to cut down on expense report fraud is to use Remote Risk Assessment (RRA) to verify reports.
How Fake Expense Reports are Costing Companies Billions
The story of Navnoor Kang reads a bit like a movie from the 80s about the stock market. Kang worked for former New York state Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli and was in charge of a $50 billion fixed-income investment portfolio. During his time managing it, he spent most of his time partying on the government's dime. Expense reports were used to disguise bribes and fund a lavish lifestyle. Kang was eventually caught and arrested, but not before thousands of dollars were lost.
Chances are that most of your employees aren't using their expense reports to fund Rolexes and luxury cars. However, there's still the risk of soft fraud. The risk is higher as people are more likely to justify charging a small item to a company credit card than they are a major purchase. These little additions add up until they cost about $1 billion a year industry-wide.
This is a type of opportunistic fraud, like time theft. It's also hard to detect, because the amounts tend to be low. Managers need to proactively review expense reports to ensure their accuracy. The issue is that employees can use a lot of methods to get past those checks, including:
- Altered/duplicate receipts – Employees might request reimbursement for the same thing twice or actively change the receipt to make it a higher amount.
- Fake expenses – This would be a case where an employee might go out to dinner with friends, and then write it off as a sales dinner or other work related event.
- Delayed submissions – Employees might significantly delay submitting expense reports in order to make it difficult to remember if the expense-related events occurred.
- Bypassing the approval process – Someone might try to get around the standard approval process of management review entirely with another coworker's help.
The more lax a manager is about viewing expense reports, the more likely employees are to take advantage of this. The problem is managers are busy and double checking all the expense reports every time is near impossible. Another way to vet expense reports might be to use Remote Risk Assessment (RRA) to gauge the validity via a short telephone interview.
Using Remote Risk Assessment to Locate Expense Report Fraud
Many companies are turning to technology to process expense reports. This might include using online systems and statements to process these reports, and while this technology helps to speed the process, it's not a guarantee to prevent fraud.
Conducting audits of all submitted expense reports can be an unwieldy task for a big company. Chances are they have hundreds of these reports coming in a month. Following up on every one is too difficult and time consuming for one person to complete. As a result, many companies may randomly pull a report as a system audit, which means the chances of catching someone committing fraud are low.
However, Remote Risk Assessment technology can be used to verify expenses with minimal human intervention. RRA technology is a unique system that targets biometric responses in a person to gauge the risk level of a statement. So in this case, the employee submitting the expense report would be asked to call into an RRA center annually or bi-annually. During a fully automated interview, they would be asked questions such as "have you intentionally falsified any of your expense reports in the last six months?" or "in the last six months have you claimed as a work expense something that you know is a private expense?"
Their answer would then be recorded and assessed, in the real time, via a fully automated system. Answers classified as low risk could be used to validate the report, while answers that show higher risk could be flagged for further assessment. This allows enterprises to more efficiently target their audits of expense reports. It streamlines the process and makes it more efficient for employees who do report their expenses accurately and honestly.
AC Global Risk offers this technology as a tool for preventing expense report fraud. This technology can be rolled out on a mass scale, conducted via brief telephone interview, and offer highly accurate results. If you want to add this tool to your expense report processing, contact us today.

Mainfreight reports strong lift in 1H net profit, upbeat about full year
By Rebecca Howard
Nov. 14 (BusinessDesk) - Mainfreight reported a 32 percent lift in its first-half net profit as its offshore divisions continue to grow. The global transport and logistics company said trading through October and into November has continued to be strong.
Net profit was $55.7 million in the six months to Sept. 30, versus $42.2 million in the prior year, the Auckland-based company said in a statement. Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization were $108 million, up 22 percent.
Mainfreight will pay an interim dividend of 22 cents per share, up 3 cents on last year "reflecting current profit levels and ongoing confidence for further improvement at the year-end result," it said.
"This satisfactory performance is attributable to ongoing growth and profitability across all five regions in our global network. Our offshore divisions are now contributing 58.1 percent of ebitda, totaling $62.9 million. Sales generated offshore in this first half year totalled $1.09 billion, 76 percent of our total revenue," it said.
New Zealand revenue was $343.1 million, up 8.3 percent compared to the same period a year earlier, with domestic freight volumes hitting record levels. Australian revenue was A$341.7 million, up 16.7 percent and Mainfreight noted that freight volumes continue to grow heading into the pre-Christmas period.
In Asia, revenue lifted 7.2 percent to US$40.2 million and the company said network development across South East Asia gained momentum with its first Malaysian operation opening on Oct. 15, after the end of the 2018 financial year. Mainfreight also expects to have its first Japanese operation open in early 2019, with licensing and business documentation requirements completed and accepted by Japanese authorities.
The Americas saw revenue lift 16.8 percent to US$237 million, with performance largely driven by its domestic transport operations, where there were new customer gains. The air and ocean operations saw revenues increase in the Americas but gross margins declined, the company said. However, "improvements in margin are evident during October and November, providing confidence for an improved EBITDA result from Air & Ocean at year end," it said.
European revenue lifted 12.2 percent to 182.33 million euros, with sales growth across all divisions.
Looking ahead, Mainfreight said it expects financial performance to improve for the full year.
The shares last traded at $28.75 and are up 13 percent so far this year.

Black Mirror, one of the few shows that could comfortably ask, "what if your neighbor was a Minecraft server?," is back with a seemingly truncated fifth season and a fresh crop of stars. Though the Netflix thriller only boasts of three new stories this year, that isn't stopping it from giving fans the full, all-too-possible creepy experience they've come to expect. Guest appearances from the likes of Anthony Mackie, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Nicole Baharie, Topher Grace, and Pom Klementieff should definitely pull the attention of even the most hesitant viewer. Even Miley Cyrus is here as a mightily popular, wig-wearing entertainer, which doesn't remind us of any of her previous work at all.
Keeping with the Black Mirror brand, the new trailer questions the ever-growing prevalence of technology and artificial intelligence as it imagines inventive ways that our cell phones could be ruining our lives. The new season begins streaming June 5, only six months after the series' choose-your-own-demise hit film Bandersnatch.

So I'm working my way through the first set of classes here, and we're just getting into jQuery. The code I was instructed to add to my jQuery Playground is as follows:
When I was instructed to add the $(".well") selector, there was a note saying "Note that, just like with CSS declarations, you type a . before the class's name."
However, I was not instructed to add a period before the $("button") selector. Can anyone explain to me what the difference is, and why one requires the period but the other does not? Just trying to wrap my head around this. Thanks!

Hot on the heels of two UN reports, Amnesty International has released a report on drone strikes in Pakistan, entitled "Will I Be Next?".
The study is not comprehensive, but rather a "qualitative assessment based on detailed field research into nine of the 45 reported strikes that occurred in Pakistan's North Waziristan tribal agency between January 2012 and August 2013". While recognizing the complexity and uncertainty of the region, Amnesty concludes:
"What is certain from Amnesty International's research, however, is that the cases in this report raise serious concerns that the USA has unlawfully killed people in drone strikes, and that such killings may amount in some cases to extrajudicial executions or war crimes and other violations of international humanitarian law. Like other forces operating in the Tribal Areas, the USA appears to be exploiting the lawless and remote nature of the region to evade accountability for its violations"

- Shoot in Manual mode which will allow you to easily balance the ambient light of your surroundings with the light from the Speedlights. If your camera is in manual mode, the exposure settings shown on the camera is for controlling the amount of ambient light recorded
- To achieve high quality images your need to set your ISO to either 100 or 200, and an aperture value which will give you sufficient depth of field to record your subject in sharp focus – F/4 is a good place to start.
- Set the Auto FP function in your camera (if it has it) which will allow you to sync the flash with shutter speeds up to 1/8000th of a second. By moving your shutter speed (higher or lower) you can control how much ambient light is recorded in your image.
- You can use the speedlights in either TTL or Manual mode to light your subject, it is best to try and keep the lighting as simple as possible, and for portraits remember that ideally you want soft light which will be created by a large light source, reasonably close to your subject
