Q. If I give the Staples lady 10.00 for a 8.99 package of labels, how much will she give to me?
A. She will give me $1.01 and my address labels.
√64 = __
How much of this can you take? Are these mindless drills? Do you drop over asleep in 20 seconds?
I don't. I can do problems like this all day. I like to solve problems that I can solve correctly. I'm not afraid of failure but I do like success.
We have some customers who say:
If the work is easy, it's not worth doing. If you succeed right away, it's been a waste of time doing the work. If it isn't hard, it can't be any good. If the kids aren't struggling, they aren't learning.
Why do any math at all that's easy? Why do we using spiraling instruction in our curriculum? Give them lots of chances to solve similar problems, over one or more years?
Well, because lots of other things in any kid's day are hard. Like catching the bus on time, choosing what to have for lunch, surviving the criticism of friends, striking out in the softball game, remembering to take books home (or back to school), getting a flu shot.
As adults we sometimes forget how traumatic these little things can be. We don't want math to be the pinnacle of pain for kids. We need to give them a chance to know they are right and they solved the problem correctly.
Math is not exactly like crossing the street, but there are lots of ways to do it correctly or incorrectly. I love this poster - I got it in Switzerland about 25 years ago. Can you see how many ways NOT to cross the street?
A related question is this - are answers always either right or wrong? Could there be shades of grey? (gray?) Here's an example:
- Was Lincoln the first president of the United States? No Correct
- Was Lincoln a president of the United States? Yes Correct
- Was Lincoln the thirteenth president of the United States? I don't know True but not the answer
- Name one president and two other men Abraham Lincoln, Madonna, my dog Spot
If I don't phrase the questions correctly, and kids arrive at two different answers, I get harassed by customers. Fair enough. To any single, precisely-worded problem there should be one correct answer.
But for the question What is the best way to teach? there is no one right answer. We use spiraling and repetition because we don't know in what order the light goes on for you.
Will you get the problem the first time? Possibly not if you have math right after lunch on a hot day. Will you get the problem after seeing it the second time, or after doing a similar but parallel problem in another context? Or after doing it 5 times over a period of 5 months? Or seeing it phrased in another way?
We think you have a better chance through spiraling than if you study a concept for a week and move along to something else.
C'mon now, try it again.

Renisha McBride, a 19 year old woman, becomes the latest African American victim who was shot and killed after being mistaken for someone "up to no good". McBride's misfortune occurred while she was attempting to seek assistance following a car accident in Dearborn Heights, Michigan. According to reports, after her cell phone battery died, McBride stepped on the porch of a house in Dearborn, allegedly seeking help somewhere around 2:30 AM on November 2. Instead of receiving the help she needed, she ended up being shot in the head and died. Unlike Detroit, Michigan, its suburban neighbor Dearborn Heights is majority white. The person shooting and killing her has not been charged.
McBride's case is not occurring in isolation. In September, 2013, 24 year old Jonathan Ferrell, a Florida A and M college graduate was shot 10 to 12 times by the police in Charlotte, North Carolina after he knocked on the door of a stranger seeking assistance in the early morning hours following an accident. As he ran towards police seeking help, he was shot and killed. And we all know too well that Trayvon Martin was shot and killed after buying candy and iced tea after being mistaken for someone "up to no good" by neighborhood watchman George Zimmerman. And like George Zimmerman, the person who shot Renisha McBride was arrested and then released.
African Americans are more prone to being suspected of criminal activity by whites when doing nothing wrong or merely seeking assistance. But more alarming is what appears to be the recent trend towards taking innocent black lives by those who take justice in their own hands along with their racial bias and often supported by the law with Stand Your Ground laws. Suspecting blacks of criminal activity where none exists is nothing new and has been going on for decades. In New York, it's sanctioned under Stop and Frisk Laws; in Maryland and other places, it's called driving while black, where a disproportionate number of blacks are stopped for suspected illegal activity while driving. And now in Stand Your Ground states, it's called shoot blacks first and ask questions later, resulting in acquittals or no charges being filed. Michigan where McBride was shot has a version of the Stand Your Ground law of shoot first if one believes they are in imminent fear of bodily harm or death.
McBride's case hits home with an African American woman being shot and killed for seeking help in a white neighborhood after dark. And her case like similar ones begs the question of why do people feel they can take the life of another person instead of waiting for the police to handle the situation. Of course, in Ferrell's case, a police officer was the one who shot and killed Ferrell after the neighbor's alarm contacted the police. That officer has been charged with manslaughter.
I've recounted the story of my brother who needed assistance after a health scare issue while driving. As he called me to ask for advice, he saw a police officer and asked me if he should flag down the officer. Instinctively, I said no fearing the police might not see my 6'2″ tall brother of 275 pounds as in need of help but disoriented and thereby suspected of being up to no good. McBride's story hits home for me. I am aware of the issues facing black men in our society whether stop and frisk, driving while black or being black in a white world. I wanted to believe that if I, as an African American woman was in need of help in the middle of the night, that a kind stranger would help me, regardless of their color or mine. Now I need to add to a growing list of concerns that I might be killed for merely asking for help like McBride.
Unfortunately, at the end of the day for many white persons, blacks are always up to no good. From Stand Your Ground laws where blacks are often the victim to Stop and Frisk laws where blacks are targeted, many of these laws are not protecting African Americans in their community but targeting them. As of the writing of this article, the person who shot McBride had not been arrested. McBride's family is seeking justice and calling for action.
On Twitter and in other social media outlets, many persons are calling for action in the case of Renisha McBride. And regardless of one's race or color, there should be wide spread support for an investigation into McBride's case. Justice should be color blind.

The city of Manaus located at the mouth of the Amazon one thousand miles inland from the Atlantic coast of Brazil has always been one of the more exotic and perhaps romantic travel sites in my imagination. For a short span of years in the late nineteenth, early twentieth centuries, the city was the center of a rubber boom and became in the words of one historian, 'one of the gaudiest cities of the world.' The opera house cost ten million dollars to build, but one of its first visiting opera companies suffered the death of half its troupe from yellow fever. The growth of Manaus got its impetus from the Industrial Revolution and the need for Amazonian rubber. From that it grew into an almost Parisian city of European rubber planters. That lasted until 1912 when the seeds were smuggled out and rubber trees planted in Malaysia, Sri Lanka and tropical Africa. Their monopoly ended, Manaus languished until 1942 when World War II spurred a brief revival in rubber production, but it was short-lived. Today the colorful rain forest city boasts a population of about two million.
When ordering State of Wonder, the new book from Ann Patchett, I had no idea the story was centered in the rainforest surrounding Manaus, and a portion of it in Manaus. The initial attraction was my liking for books by Ann Patchett, and especially her 2001 prizewinner, Bel Canto. Whatever the story or setting, a new book by this writer goes immediately onto my wish list.
In the briefest synopsis, State of Wonder is about the efforts of a drug company and three of its employees to gain information about the research and progress of a doctor on payroll in the Amazon who has gone off radar. The first person sent there disappears until a letter arrives announcing his death from fever. His lab partner is the next to be sent, and more than anyone else State of Wonder is her story. Their research is in the area of extending pregnancy beyond the natural limits of menopause, of permitting childbearing into the late sixties and beyond. Or at least this is the cover story. As the story unfolds we learn of the doctor's more useful and beneficial research program there in the rainforest, research she fears will be under appreciated, and with premature exposure unleash a media doomsday on the local tribe of Indians. Obviously, the story is one of discovery revolving around not only ethics, responsibility and cultural interference, but most of all the main character's discovery of herself.
Marina Singh has been a doctor of pharmacology for thirteen years, a switch from her original med-school plans of internal medicine. An accident during her time as an intern prompts the switch, and we quickly learn that her professor and chief of staff at the time is the very same doctor Dr Swenson, head of the drug research in the Amazonian rainforest. Marina agrees to go to South America mostly to find out more about her co-worker's death, and also as an appeasement to the man's wife who believes he is still alive.
I have earlier described Marina as the book's main character, but there is something a little lopsided about that claim. Of course, Dr Swenson is the book's other main character, but in fact both these women oftentimes fall into shadow behind the mysterious grandeur and lethal presence of the jungle, the rainforest and primal mover of every living thing under its expanse of tangled vines, trees, water and mud. Every step in its world is loaded with the possibility of snakebite, vicious insect stings, and all manner of creatures looking for a meal, the bigger the better. And if the wildlife doesn't do it, the headhunters will.
Just me perhaps, but I have never before read pages so fraught with horror and suspense as the six describing an onboard battle with an eighteen foot anaconda determined to kill all five people on the boat. Tension is relentless and the reader begins to fear the huge snake in all its flashing fury and foul odor is going to have its final way with the hapless boat crew.
'There was an odor none of them recognized, the smell of a furious reptile, an oily stench of putrid rage that sank into the membranes of their nostrils as if it planned to stay there forever. The back half of the snake whipped up and made itself a knot around Easter's slender waist and wrapped and wrapped and at the moment its head swung past, Easter reached into the air, his hand a quarter second faster than the snake, and grabbed its throat just below the head…'
The more subtle beauty of character development Patchett saves for her human characters. Page by page the layers of Marina's complex life and experience are unfolded until we see her finally in full illumination. The writer is no different in the unraveling of Dr Swenson's cocoon, a slow step by step unveiling of a character we are unable to see into initially. This is the unknown quality a reader latches onto with the promise it will be revealed as the story moves toward its conclusion. On the other hand, the rainforest hits us with its full brunt from the first moment, the first wave of its biting-sucking hard-shelled insects. The only drab in this green-brown world are the dilapidated huts, the worn and faded rags of clothing and the hoard of canned rations.
Spend some time with Ann Patchett if you haven't yet had the pleasure—if not State of Wonder, then the earlier Bel Canto.

Kuro Obi Notice
Just letting everyone know that Petersham Friday classes are cancelled THIS week, due to a seminar I'm attending in Blacktown.
On another note, we missed celebrating the dojo's 8th birthday on the first of March - let's try to remember to do something for the 9th.
I've got some new links at the bottom of this newsletter that you might want to check out - they're useful for your grading.
Starting from Monday, April 1st (no, this is not an April Fool's joke) adult classes will be cut to Monday and Thursday only until further notice. Children's classes will all remain as before for now.
Wednesday Fitness circuit will remain for the the time being. Tuesdays and Fridays will become "special class" or "extra class" days", though I haven't yet decided out what they will be. Suggestions are welcome.
Junior Grading
Sunday 24th March
The first Junior Grading of the year will be a Sunday this time because the day before will be the Fundraising BBQ (see below) at Fivedock.
Juniors will start at 10am - and depending on the numbers, seniors may also start at that time too. You've got 2 weeks to make sure you're ready, and I'll be letting you know whether you are!
I've already mentioned in the IFK Australia Newsletter about our fundraising efforts that are underway, to help members get to overseasa and Australia tournaments, as well as bringing visiting instructors to teach us at camps and seminars.

We're also collecting as many bottles and cans for recycling refunds as possible. We're currently arranging for a method to make it easy to ensure that we get the funds, and we'll let you know once it's up and running.
In the meantime, please collect all plastic bottles and drinks cans you can, ensuring not to crush them, and keep the caps.
If you can't store them at home, put them in a rubbish bag and bring them to the dojo.
Other fundraising options
If you know of any other ways we could raise funds, please let us know. This could include possible grants, sponsors, andanything else that we haven't ourselves thought of.
Again, don't forget to check out the links below. Some will be useful for you grading!

Abundance Denial
In a previous post, I wrote about the significant increase in household net worth in 2006 to a record $56 trillion. IBD prepared the chart above for its Friday edition editorial "Getting Richer" and made the following points:
1. We've added as much wealth in the last decade as we did in our nation's first 220 years. It's an amazing boom — all the more so because hardly anyone talks about it.
2. $56 trillion dollars is 4 times the size of our economy, and nearly a quarter bigger than the size of the entire world economy.
3. The average household in America owns about $487,095 worth of stuff, free and clear. That's a big jump from recent years. As recently as 2001, average household wealth was $373,170. So in five years we've become a third richer — a truly amazing fact.
4. A variety of recent readings on the economy show people surprisingly glum about the future. We hear that we don't 'save enough,' that there's a widening 'income gap' and that the middle class is shrinking. But we seem to be afflicted with what author Gregg Easterbrook recently dubbed 'abundance denial.' Because the economic reality is something quite different.
5. In addition to being richer, we live longer, healthier lives than ever. Even people on the lowest rungs of the economic ladder have far more than they did a decade ago. The fact is, we've never had it so good.
MP: Psychologically, there is some kind of persistent cognitive dissonance going on, Easterbrook calls it "abundance denial," others have called it the "paradox of progress." Never in history has there been such wealth, prosperity and abundance for the AVERAGE person (Exhibit A: the typical junior high school can afford a camera cell phone AND an iPod), and yet "the media constantly dwells on minor problems without celebrating the broader, more upbeat context in which they exist," according to Easterbrook.

RCMP are investigating after human remains were found in a remote area of Hants County Monday afternoon.
Windsor RCMP were contacted at about 2 p.m. by someone who had found human remains in a heavily wooded area on Moses Mountain in Mill Section. The community is about 12 kilometres south of Windsor on Highway 14.
Cpl. Lisa Croteau said the remains have been sent for an autopsy and have not been positively identified.
She said the remains were at the bottom of a steep embankment off a trail on the mountain, a popular destination for hiking and rock climbing. She didn't say how they were discovered or by who.
Croteau didn't have any information on whether there was an indication of how long the remains had been in the woods or whether there was anything that would give a clue to the person's identity.
She also didn't know whether there was any indication of foul play.

Music is a wonderful thing; an inspiring way to escape the day-to-day craziness of life.
The story I am about to tell you is a story about music, and about a sweet girl who pursued her love of music despite her disability.
15-year-old Joanna Costa was born with Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita (AMC), a disability that consists of joint contractures in both her hands and feet. This means Joanna has limited use of her toes and fingers, and specifically in respect to playing musical instruments she has limited to no use in her fingers.
Yet despite her disability, Joanna still loves music and pursues it with a passion! She taught herself how to play the piano at age seven. And just a few years ago, Joanna started playing the hammer dulcimer. If that isn't already amazing, Joanna also loves to sing and has sung in multiple choirs and ensembles. "I have always loved music," Joanna explains in an interview with the HSLDA Blog, "I like to play a variety of genres, but my favorites include classical pieces and hymns."
Joanna's love for music started at a young age. It all began when Joanna asked her mom, who was a piano teacher, if she could give her piano lessons. "She was teaching my older brother Stephen, and whatever he did, I wanted to do too," Joanna conveyed about her first interest in music. "Also, my dad and mom both play piano, so I wanted to play the piano like they did. My dad would come home from work and play, and I would listen to him and think, 'I want to do that.'" Joanna's mom also plays in their church, and all that little five-year-old Joanna wanted to do was to play the piano as well as her parents.
Mrs. Costa consulted a music therapist, Janet, about Joanna's condition and if she'd be able to play the piano. Janet assessed Joanna's ability to play and felt very confident that Joanna could learn to play the piano. "That therapist", Joanna explained, "became my piano teacher and has been teaching me ever since. She has especially taught me how to play more complex pieces with my physical limitations (since I can only play with 2 or 3 fingers at most in each hand)."
Through all of this, Mr. and Mrs. Costa homeschooled Joanna and taught her the importance of music and education. Speaking of her homeschool experience, Joanna explained that "homeschooling has allowed [her] schedule to be flexible enough to allow for the therapy and doctor's visits necessitated by [her] diagnosis", as well as for extracurricular activities. Although Joanna isn't able to play certain sports such as soccer or softball, homeschooling has afforded her the opportunities to do other extracurricular and physical activities such as sled hockey, horseback riding, participating in the science fair, and the 4-H club. Homeschooling has also allowed her enough flexibility to practice and record music.
In 2013, Joanna released her first CD, called Four Fingers, Two Hands, One Piano. The CD includes pieces played by Joanna from Muzio Clementi and Joseph Haydn. In Joanna's own words: "Playing these pieces, even with a disability, allows me to enjoy the beauty of music – a beauty I hope to share with others. Having to work harder, perhaps more than others, to perform the pieces gave me an even greater appreciation of the compositions."
When asked what her inspiration was behind her first album, Joanna said: "I have to blame my father for this one. Primarily, dad encouraged me to share my story. Our desire was to promote the idea that disabled individuals can still do amazing things (and should not be looked down by others in society) and we wanted to bring glory to God through the process." Although there were some technical difficulties and the album took 3 years to record, Joanna said "it was a good learning experience to go through the recording process and it taught [her and her dad] patience."
With one album under her belt, Joanna hopes to record another CD in the not too distant future. Joanna also loves to help people, and some of her future goals in that area include going to the Middle East this spring to help at a home for girls, and helping out at an orphanage in Mexico this summer. "I have always wanted to help kids", Joanna explained, "and I hope to do something along these lines in the future."
Homeschooling has allowed Joanna the opportunities to pursue her passion for music and her passion for helping people. She loves God and has a heart ready and waiting for Him to use. I look forward to see how God will use Joanna next.

1. Re: FDMEE - Restrict prompt (query definition) based on POV Location in custom scriptuser6692921 Nov 4, 2019 5:06 PM (in response to AlexZh)
I think you are getting confused between Script Registration and Query Definition. You can use parameter placeholder strings (eg ~POVLOC~) in Query Definition. The parameters you create on Script Registration supply the replacement strings for the parameter placeholders. As far as I know you cannot use the parameter placeholders in the queries for Script Registration. I haven't found a way of intercepting the creation of the script parameters to do what you want.
The only thing you could do is a check on the selected WBDLR once the parameters have been selected. If the user picked a WBDLR that is not valid for their location, raise an error and stop the script.
2. Re: FDMEE - Restrict prompt (query definition) based on POV Location in custom scriptAlexZh Nov 5, 2019 10:04 AM (in response to user6692921)
Thanks for your response. You are right.
I have found the other way - to use the 'POV Rule' Parameter in Script Registration - it resolves my issue.
The end-user can able to see only DLRs which related to users' locations.
Unfortunately, we can't search in Query Definition and the user can able to see all Budgets (Target options for WB DLRs) and need to choose the correct option to their rule.

Fiat Chrysler has been making occasional hybrid only. But now it has decided to gear up and release 30 EVs in 5 years, some kind of electrification within 2022. The vehicles will be either a full EV, a plug-in hybrid or a conventional hybrid. The company has invested $ 10.5 million dollars in this 5 year project.
Sergio Marchionne, CEO of Fiat Chrysler , said that majority of his vehicles will be fossil fuel powered. "Reducing our dependence on oil is one of the single, greatest challenges that our society faces," Marchionne told the financial analyst, when he presented his 5 year electrification plan project. He announced this on 01 st June, 2018 on Capital Market's Day, as he presented his final presentation before retiring as the CEO of Fiat Chrysler.
He further added , "At FCA, we believe there is no single solution, no magic formula, to solve this problem. We believe to achieve a quantum leap, the entire system – political, economic and industrial – needs to work together with the right measure of realism based on finding the appropriate balance between consumption levels, cost and efficiency. At the same time, conventional internal combustion engines will continue to be in the vast majority of our production. The obligation is on us to try to make sure fuel consumption associated with larger vehicles match market expectations." He also acknowledged , "we found it a lot more difficult to try to penetrate the premium market than we thought".
Chief Technical Compliance Officer, Mark Chernoby, said that FCA Pacifica PHEV, Ram 1500 mild hybrid and Jeep Wrangler mild hybrid are the only ones available in the market now. The 500e electric vehicle is also sold by the company to meet California regulations. This entire planning might be the result of ban gas powered car in Paris, so the urgent need of introduction of electric powered vehicles.

All too often historically, recruiting has been carried out without any sort of rigorous analysis. Even when metrics are applied to recruiting, traditional recruiting metrics miss the mark when it comes to measuring what really matters to impact return on investment (ROI).
Why traditional recruiting metrics don't work
The two most common recruiting metrics traditionally are cost per hire (CPH) and at time to fill (TTF). Both metrics are intrinsically flawed.
Cost per hire tracks how expensive the recruiting process is per position, but fails to account for the differences in difficulty to fill across different types of positions, efficiency of the recruiting process, and quality of hire. "Marshaling the resources that are required to produce quality hires is almost always expensive" says Dr. Sullivan, CEO of DJS. "To put it bluntly, you get what you pay for." Neglecting to account for the long-term costs of poor hiring decisions is a big mistake in developing a recruiting strategy. If you are filling positions cheaply but with low quality hires, your total costs may be much higher than if you had invested more per hire, but made better hires.
A poor hire is costly in five major ways.
1. Poor hires often require more time to manage.
2. Poor hires are often unproductive and thus produce less benefit for the company per salary dollar.
3. Poor hires may create a negative customer experience and cost the company in reputation and potentially in lost return business.
4. Poor hires may drag down employee morale and lead to increased turnover among good employees.
5. Poor hires may themselves either quit or be fired shortly after employment and thus necessitate renewed recruiting efforts for the same position and thereby effectively double the cost per hire.
Time to fill is an equally ineffective metric for strategic recruiting. By evaluating recruiters based on a score that solely considers speed, time to fill similarly neglects quality of hire. It may thus result in manipulation of the system by recruiters, who could choose to fill positions with active candidates who are faster and cheaper to hire, even if there may be passive candidates who are better suited to the company or the work.
Recruiting Metrics that Actually Work
Effective metrics are important for strategic recruiting, because the only way to effectively improve results is to understand what your results are. For that, you need to be able to measure your results.
According to a 2012 Qualigence Whitepaper, an efficiency ratio is a more effective metric than cost per hire. An efficiency ratio is calculated by dividing the total cost of hire, spent both internally and externally, by the compensation of the position recruited. This is more effective because it accounts for the greater cost of filling higher paying positions than lower paying positions. It also accounts for the associated differences between candidate supply for different levels of compensation, as well as somewhat for differences in candidate demand due to variations in market, position level, industry, and location.
Even with those improvements over cost of hire, however, an efficiency ratio does not account for quality of hire. According to a study by the Aberdeen Group, Quality of Hire is the most important recruiting metric to track. Unfortunately, it also "tends to be a frustratingly elusive metric," says Ji-A Min, a research analyst at Ideal Candidate.
According to Shanil Kaderali, executive vice president of global talent solutions at Pierpoint, a quality of hire measurement should include how long it took the employee to become fully productive, how s/he ranks among peers, and whether or not s/he is a cultural fit. For a more comprehensive quality measurement, some companies also include an engagement score.
In addition to efficiency ratio and quality of hire, hiring managers should account for the damage incurred by overly long hiring processes. If the hiring process is slow, there are many 'position vacancy days' during which that position is unoccupied and necessary work isn't getting done. "Excessive vacancy days are particularly damaging for revenue-generating and revenue-impact positions" says Dr. Sullivan.
The cost of using excessive hiring manager hours should also be included in a comprehensive analysis of a recruiting process. Hiring managers typically fulfill additional duties within an organization and every hour spent on recruiting efforts is an hour that can't be spent on those other necessary tasks.
"Recruiting should survey hiring managers to develop an ideal number of hours that they need to commit as a target" says Dr. Sullivan. "They should also work with the CFO's office to put a dollar amount on those excess manager hours used." If a hiring manager is regularly spending too much time on hiring related tasks, they must identify the causes of the excess time required and develop a plan to resolve those issues.
Other recruiting metrics to consider include net new candidates, candidates sourced by channel, total number of job applications, qualified candidates recruited, candidates accepted by hiring manager, total number of offers, and total number of offers accepted.
Net new candidates measures how effective your recruiting strategy is at getting your company in front of candidates as a potential employer and at attracting those candidates with your employer brand. A low score for net new candidates suggests that either your company has poor or poorly targeted visibility or that your employer brand is unattractive.
Candidates sourced by channel, especially when considering paid versus free channels, helps recruiters and hiring managers make more informed decisions about where to spend time and money. As part of this measurement, consider which channels are producing the greatest number of qualified candidates. Investing resources more heavily on high return channels can improve ROI.
Total number of job applications, if it is significantly lower than number of net new candidates, can indicate a candidate-unfriendly application process. The number of candidates accepted by the hiring manager can identify problems with communication between recruiters and the hiring manager. If the number is low, either the hiring manager isn't clearly communicating what s/he is looking for, the recruiters aren't being selective enough with candidates, or the hiring manager's expectations are unrealistic.
Total number of offers is important to track in order to understand whether your current system is effective at recruiting the type of candidates the hiring manager is looking for. Total number of offers accepted, if it is much lower than total number of offers, can suggest something off-putting about the application or interview process.
Recruiting metrics can be complicated, especially because approaching recruiting analytically is relatively new. Hiring blind, however, is a waste of opportunity and quite likely also a waste of money. By applying a more sales-like approach to the hiring process, you can optimize your recruiting ROI and save time and money.

Stonehenge is a prehistoric monument located in the English county of Wiltshire. Stonehenge is one of the most famous sites in the world. It is composed of earthworks surrounding a circular setting of large standing stones and sits at the centre of the densest complex of monuments in England, including several hundred burial mounds.
Archaeologists had believed that the iconic stone monument was erected around 2500 BC, as described in the chronology below. The surrounding circular earth bank and ditch, which constitute the earliest phase of the monument, have been dated to about 3100 BC.
The site and its surroundings were added to the UNESCO's list of World Heritage Sites in 1986 in and it is a legally protected Scheduled Ancient Monument. Stonehenge itself is owned by the Crown and managed by English Heritage while the surrounding land is owned by the National Trust.

In 2004, the President issued a homeland security directive focusing on defense against biological weapons. This directive, along with the National Strategy for Homeland Security published in 2002, mandated assessments of the biological weapons threat to the nation and assigned responsibility for those assessments to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). To assist in this project, DHS asked the NRC to carry out a study of the methodology used by the agency to prepare its first bioterrorism risk assessment. This interim report provides a preliminary examination of that methodology along with recommendations for near-term guidance and direction for the further development of its risk analysis models. A final report will address longer-term issues in the development of risk assessment capabilities for DHS.

The Truth about Goats
The ex-UKIP Leader has said he wants to return to the UK to give 'birth' to a new Brexit party. In 1999 Mr. Farage left London to join the caliphate European State, during which time he actively promoted the Profit Trump.
While the Home Office has considered repatriating terrorist brides, they are reluctant to grant access to someone with such an 'extremist past' and who has expressed no remorse for radicalizing the nation's gammon.
In 1999, disguised as a school girl, Mr. Farage crossed the border into Belgium; entering into an arranged marriage with the far-right EAF. During which time he spoke of having seen previous UKIP leaders beheaded, but mostly by their own hand.
Speaking from a refugee camp near South Thanet, Mr. Farage said he would soon be suffering from malnutrition – when in fifty years his EU pension comes to an end. A Home Office spokeswoman confirmed: 'We have received requests for sanctuary from many people, including ISIS recruits and Nigel Farage. But there is a risk, opening our borders to someone who would let a bomb off in the heart of our democracy and those other guys are from ISIS'.

The programme will be in place by May 2019, with a focus on international cultural partnerships.
ddh Photos on Visualhunt / CC BY-ND
The Scottish Government is planning to create a new fund to protect cultural organisations from the impact of Brexit.
The International Creative Ambition Programme is set to be in place by May 2019. It will support international cultural partnerships that develop new work and "support talent through international collaboration and exchange".
"This is particularly important against the backdrop of Brexit," says the Scottish Government's 2018/19 programme, where the fund is announced.
"Where Brexit threatens our ability to connect and prosper we will do what we can for Scotland to flourish", it says.
Arts funder Creative Scotland welcomed the plans, praising the Scottish Government's "ongoing commitment to supporting Scotland's culture sector at home and internationally".
"We look forward to finding out more about this new fund in due course," a spokesperson told AP.
Culture strategy
Few details of the fund have been unveiled, meaning it is not known which organisations will be eligible and how much support will be available.
But its motives are framed by the country's upcoming Culture Strategy, due by the end of 2018, which is outlined in the Programme for Government. The document says the strategy will use culture to improve wellbeing, increase economic growth, and force "long-term change through greater collaboration and integration across culture, communities and policy development".
"We want to bring about a shift in how society and government view culture to realise the full potential of culture for everyone and every community," the plan adds.
The document adds the strategy will be underpinned by three 'ambitions': to transform through culture, to empower through culture, and to sustain culture.
The Government also states its desire that the rest of the world see Scotland as "a creative, open, welcoming and outward-looking nation".
The programme comes weeks after politicians gathered in the country for the Edinburgh International Culture Summit were criticised for blocking international artists from visiting the country and sharing ideas.
Speaking at the event last month, Sanjoy Roy, Director of India-based arts organisation Teamwork Arts, said his personal experience of meeting thousands of artists at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe was "transformative".
But pointing to the Scottish politicians organising the conference, he said: "Unfortunately the very same city today, because of your policies, doesn't allow visas to many communities – to many people who would like to come here and participate in the incredible offering of culture. We need to break down our boundaries.
"On one hand Europe is talking about the internet democratising us and allowing us all to come together across the world. At the same time, every country, every city feels threatened and threatened by artists."
Scotland's cultural strategy will also include pledges to drive forward the next phase of the country's youth arts strategy, to respond to an ongoing review of music education undertaken by Royal Conservatoire Scotland, and to launch a new place-based arts initiative called the "cultural youth experience fund".

Berenice Drury, HTC Health
Our meetings are not only very informative but are also humorous – not often the case with accountants. Myers Clark's advice and assistance with transferring ownership was invaluable, their work was very professional and also had a personal touch which was much appreciated. Their support has made a noticeable difference as we are having more conversations about long-term strategies, and of course, less mileage. They offer a personal, prompt and professional service.
"I would commend Nicola Ferriday and Sumeet Bajaria, who have met the deadlines I have imposed. Both have been very professional and accommodating. Nicola's advice has been clear and kept me on the straight and narrow. I would like to express my appreciation of the staff of Myers Clark for their helpfulness and enthusiasm for assisting me."

viral symphOny by Joseph Nechvatal
viral symphOny by Joseph Nechvatal [CD-LABEL: IEA] :: Post-conceptual digital artist and theoretician Joseph Nechvatal pushes his experimental investigations into the blending of computational virtual spaces and the corporeal world into the sonic register. Realtime "field recordings" of the audio manifestations of his custom created computer viruses have been reworked and reprocessed by Andrew Deutsch and Matthew Underwood, resulting in the sonic landscape of the 'viral symph0ny'. With resonances of Yasunao Tone, Fluxus, Oval, and Merzbow, this 28-minute composition is supplemented by a further 50 minutes of audio, comprising the original raw data field recordings. – Steven Mygind Pedersen, Institute for Electronic Arts, School of Art & Design, NYSCC @ Alfred University.

text: Independiente agree €12 million sale of Emiliano Rigoni to Zenit August 20, 2017 · by pedrocoates · in argentina, independiente, Uncategorized. · After weeks of back and forth and the suggestion that the deal was virtually dead in the water, Zenit St Petersburg have finally reached an agreement with Independiente for the transfer of forward Emiliano Rigoni. It is understood that the Russian club's final offer of around €12 million has now been accepted and Rigoni will travel to St Petersburg tomorrow to finalise the deal. El Rojo's valuation of a player, who scored eleven league goals last season and has been outstanding since the arrival of Ariel Holan, the structure of Zenit's payment and the negotiations with former club Belgrano have all proved stumbling blocks. However, Rigoni and his agent were keen to make the switch to Europe and Independiente president Hugo Moyano informed Holan on Sunday that he would be accepting the latest offer, ruling the 24-year-old out of Tuesday's Copa Sudamericana clash with Atlético Tucumán. Independiente are set to receive €8 million with the remaining €4 million going to Rigoni's former club Belgrano, whom Independiente were attempting to purchase the remaining percentage of his ownership. For a club racked with debt, it is an amount that Independiente can hardly turn down but losing a player so central to Ariel Holan's system just days before a Copa Sudamericana last 16 tie and a week before the start of the new league season is less than ideal. Rigoni will be the latest recruit to Roberto Mancini's ambitious, Argentine-influenced project in St Petersburg joining Sebastián Driussi, Leandro Paredes, Matías Kranevitter and Emanuel Mammana. Lightening quick, two-footed and with an eye for goal, Rigoni is able to operate across the attack on either flank or up front and having steadily improved over the past few seasons, the 24-year-old is now ready to test himself in Europe. Having said his goodbyes after last month's victory over Deportes Iquique, Rigoni said, "If I return to a club in Argentina, it will be Independiente or Belgrano [his former club]. There will be no other." Depending on the success of his switch to Zenit, time will tell if either club will see Rigoni tearing down the wing again.

Frozen Wiki is a wiki-based resource and community website focused on Disney's animated film Frozen and its overall franchise.
The goals of the Frozen Wiki are:
- To be the definitive resource to all things relating to the franchise, both within and outside the universe. All users are encouraged to help out and contribute to the site.
- To create a community site for members to share their views and theories on Frozen.
How can I help?
Work on a wiki is never truly finished, yet many new users wonder what they can do to help out. Fortunately, there are a variety of activities and jobs that you can do.
- Improve and/or rewrite articles: As Frozen Wiki is an encyclopedia of everything to do with Frozen, this can be said to be the primary goal of the site.
- Express your views through the forums or a blog post: Creating a forums post or a blog post is a good way to share your opinion on the film and engage with other members of the community.
- Chat with other community members: By posting on someone's message wall, or entering our real-time chat, you can have more personal conversations with other users.
What are the rules of Frozen Wiki?
As wiki-based site, which should inherently be editable by anyone, there is a necessity of having certain policies and guidelines to guide the use of the site. A detailed write-up of our policies can be found here.
Littlerat1 founded Frozen Wiki in December of 2013.[1] A separate community, also pertaining to Frozen, stylized as the Frozen Disney Wiki, was founded by Bella8991 prior to the release of the film. While Bella8991 began to slowly build up the community of the Frozen Disney Wiki, the Frozen Wiki was mostly inactive and was adopted by Addielpsgurl on December 20, 2013. She spurred the appointment of several new administrators; however, the work on the Frozen Wiki remained mostly derivative of that of Disney Wiki's articles on Frozen, as one of the new appointees, AwesomeOrange89, appeared to encourage the promotion of more users to maintenance positions, on no real merits.[2]
While better organized than the Frozen Wiki, the Frozen Disney Wiki too, remained derivative of the content on the Disney Wiki and its community remained separate. But in April of 2014, NinjaFatGuy recognized that combining the two wikis would lead to a better, unified community and oversaw a merging process that would result in the transfer of Frozen Disney Wiki's content to the more desirable URL.[1] The process took two to three weeks and led to a staff shakeup that resulted in a more compact and robust maintenance team. In the months that followed, sustained vandalism led to the disabling of editing for anonymous users.[1][3]
Quality control
Though the merge had been successful, the Frozen Wiki still had major issues regarding the quality of its content. Dragonboy6491 drafted proposals for more concrete editing protocols and clear Wiki policies, with the help of the community.[4][5][6] With the new guidelines, he then oversaw the complete overhaul of every single article, and guided the community through rewriting every content page completely. He and Humphry02 were largely responsible for the high level of quality in the site's articles, having lent their contributions to essentially every single page. Images also became subject to standards to maintain a level of professionalism on the Frozen Wiki, and it was decided that any images uploaded without being used on an article were to be deleted. Around the same time, users who were in severe dereliction of their administrator duties, Littlerat1 and AwesomeOrange89, had these rights removed, which led eventually to the complete ouster of remaining inactive administrators.
Despite his role in shaping the new direction of Frozen Wiki, Dragonboy6491 became inactive, and with the additional inactivity of BlouseGirl and Bella8991, Heimr Arnadalr made an adoption request for the Frozen Wiki so that an active member of the community could resume maintenance duties around the site. He was made bureaucrat and administrator on June 22, 2017 and appointed Humphry02 to administrator to help ensure that the content of the site remained up to standard.
Should you need any help, do not hesitate to reach out to an administrator.

Moving to one of the most vegetarian-UNfriendly countries in the world with the naïve expectation of maintaining a similar lifestyle to what I had had (especially in regards to accessibility and abundance) has not only provided many challenges and frustrations, but mostly many wonderful experiences and encounters I couldn't have had without having chosen the "path less traveled" when it comes to alternative lifestyles here.
As you know, no amount of research you do before moving to a foreign country cannot give you adequate preparation for the lifestyle changes and adaptations you will need to make upon arrival, or soon thereafter if you are anything like me and despise making changes of some sorts. As all the travel blogs and expat threads will tell you, it's all about "getting out of your comfort zone", "submerging yourself in the culture", and "making friends with the locals" etc, and ashamedly I have found all these clichés uncomfortably true and applicable to all aspects of my life in Japan, and increasingly when it comes to veganism.
Although Japanese are familiar with Buddhist vegetarian diets (shojin ryori), western-style vegetarianism is relatively unheard of, and veganism even further removed. When I arrived in Nagoya I was taken aback at the lack of vegetarian and vegan information available for such a big city, especially in comparison with the big 3 – Tokyo, Osaka and Kyoto. I found most of Japanese life to be like this – everything worth finding is someones best kept secret, and it all seemed to be tucked away in pokey little alleyways, hidden behind tiny little doors with minimal signage and advertising, and all without big glass windows illuminating the minimalist interiors – the complete opposite aesthetic of my home country. This quickly became one of my favorite aspects of Japan, every time something amazing was found, it was because it had happened unexpectedly or accidentally, and not through any advertising or recommendation guiding me there with preconceptions and a weighty expectation.
While I was initially overwhelmed with the lack of options available (I had come from a country with entire neighbourhoods devoted to vegan restaurants) I soon started discovering restaurants with vegan options available, restaurants without vegan options but with kind staff who were more than happy to accommodate for me and prepare something new, places I could go to buy foods not found in regular Japanese supermarkets (still on the hunt for 100% peanut butter HMU), vegan junk food and on the go foods (this came in handy when I could spend time actually eating said foods and not reading the kanji on the back), but perhaps most importantly I found Japanese foods that I could eat so I didn"t feel as entirely removed from the cuisine part of Japanese culture that is so widely revered.
Living in a foreign country gives you innumerable opportunities to explore and reevaluate your withstanding beliefs in a way that only a different context can provide. Regardless of your lifestyle choice (and Japanese language ability), I highly recommend and encourage you in the most non-cliché way possible to "step outside your comfort zone", "submerge yourself in the culture" and "make friends with the locals", as this way of thinking can make the most niche of hobbies/interests/lifestyles possible in Japan. Some of my most favored experiences have been thanks to the wonderful hospitality I have received here, as a result of the kindhearted and generous nature of the Japanese nation. I wanted to share this knowledge not only to help other vegetarian and vegans eat their way around Nagoya more easily, but to increase awareness and understanding of the lifestyle itself for those interested in learning about other cultures and alternative ways of life – most likely you, person-from-other-country reading this article!
I've created an Instagram account so you can see the aforementioned hacks and tips I've found and accumulated so far here in Nagoya, and you can see it at @vegansofnagoya.

International Symposium of the Collaborative Research Centre 973
News from Nov 19, 2012
The CRC 973 pursues two major research aims by investigating organisms lacking nervous systems: (I) to elucidate the molecular, biochemical and physiological mechanisms involved in priming and memory of responses to stress, and (II) to understand how the stability and predictability of the environmental conditions affect priming and memory abilities. During the first phase of the CRC, the majority of projects focuses on plants, one project investigates fungi, and another bacteria. In the long-term perspective, our CRC research intends to elucidate whether these different types of organisms share common mechanisms in being primed for stress and in storing (remembering) information on stressful events.

Backed by the Archbishops of Canterbury and York, the plan is for people to: "get together and chat over a cup of tea and pray for our country and our future'.
Churches will be given packs with Bible-passages and questions to prompt discussion, such as: 'What effect has Brexit had in your family relationships, friendships etc and if you disagreed, has it been possible to disagree well?' and 'What are the three main things we have in common that we can build on for a better future as a community and as a nation?'
Bishop of Chelsmford, Rt Rev Stephen Cottrell, told Premier: "This process that we're embroiled in, which appears to be unravelling right now and will probably change again tomorrow - there will come a point where it comes to an end, when we wake up on that day we're still neighbours to one another and the thing that distresses me is that we're defining ourselves so much now by 'are you leave?', 'are you remain?', we've got to put an end to that and say whichever way you voted...we're still sisters and brothers to one another!"
He added that the cafe will be focussing on how to move on with a healthy attitude towards people with different opinions: "The conversation is not about Brexit but about how we can love one another, how can we be good neighbours to one another?
"Brexit has created a situation in this country which I don't think we've seen for years where we are divided and that's not a healthy thing.
"Come along to your local church and you'll get a warm welcome".
Those taking part will be encouraged to have respect for the integrity of differently held positions and, for communities which feel the same about Brexit, to use their imagination to consider the viewpoints of those who feel differently.
The Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, said: "A century from now the Church will be remembered for how it responded at this crucial moment in the life of our nation and country. Will we be those who worked to defuse tension and hostility? Will we be those who called for civility and respect in how we speak about, and treat, each other? Will we be those who never stopped praying with urgency and hope for our country, our communities and our political leaders - and for a way forward that allows every person, family and community to flourish?
"This is an opportunity for the Church of England to join together in prayer for God's kingdom to come, and for the good of all in society. I hope that each of us will take hold of these resources to help us pray for our country at this critical time."
The Archbishop of York, Dr John Sentamu said: "St Paul advises and urges Timothy to 'offer petitions, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings for everyone, for sovereigns, and for all in high office so that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life, free to practice our religion with dignity. Such prayer is right, and approved by God our Saviour, whose will it is that all should find salvation and come to know the truth.'"
