Nicole and Robbie's wedding was perfect! They didn't want to see each other before the ceremony, but they wanted to have a private moment where they could talk without seeing each other. This was probably my favorite moment from the whole day. I could write so much about how beautiful those few minutes were, but I think the photos show a more accurate description of anything I could write! I'm so happy I got to photograph their beautiful wedding at The Bell Tower on 34th. The purple color scheme was fit for royalty! Nicole and Robbie, I hope you are enjoying married life and living happily ever after!
Two of my favorite first dance pictures ever…

Roasting a turkey breast in the air fryer yields perfectly cooked, moist and juicy meat on the inside with a beautiful deep golden brown skin.
Slow Cooker Turkey Breast with Gravy is my go-to when I want a Thanksgiving meal without the fuss! But I wanted to make a quick breast so I can test some new turkey leftover recipes. Some favorites from the archives are this Leftover Turkey Harvest Cobb Salad, or this Leftover Turkey Sweet Potato Fritatta, to name a few. Turkey breast in air fryer was quick and perfect and came out better than I expected!

In late 2009 after I started this blog, I began previewing the HOF class for 2010. I took 2 years off in 2012 and 2013. I probably still did it, but I didn't post them on line. My process is this, first I preview those returning to the ballot and then I preview those new to the ballot,
If I were allowed to vote for 12 players elgible for the 2016 HOF class. My12th vote would go to Garret Anderson (Anderson was not on the ballot last year). There are certainly other players on the ballot who I normally would consider before Anderson. Larry Walker has been in my top 10 in other years for example. However I would choose Anderson for 1 reason only. I have a friend named Garret Anderson and if you ever get a chance to nominate a friend into the HOF, I think you should!
If I were allowed to vote for 11 players, my 11th vote would go to Mike Mussina (I did not vote for Mussina last year). Mussina is definitely worth of consideration in the hall. He just falls short of my top 10.
If I were allowed to vote for exactly 10 players, my 10th vote would go to Jim Edmonds. (Edmonds is on the ballot for the 1st time this year)
If I could only vote for exactly 9 players my 9th vote would go to Trevor Hoffman. (Hoffman is a first timer as well). I may consider Hoffman on my official unofficial ballot in years to come, but I don't feel comfortable support candidacy until my 3rd choice in this years ballots HOF fate is decided)
My 8th choice if I could vote for 8 would be Allen Trammel (Allen was not in my top 10 last year) . I have alway been on the fence about Trammel, Ihave him in my top 8 this year as a sense of urgency since this is his last year on the ballot.
My 7th choice on a 7 player ballot would be Edgar Martinez. (Martinez was 10th on my list in 2015). I have no problem voting for a lifelong DH in the HOF my main reason for not having him any higher is that was consistently the 2nd or 3rd biggest offensive producer on his team.
In my 4 previous ballots, my 6th and 5th choices have appeared 2 times each in the position right before my official unofficial ballot. That is because, in my mind they are both inches shy of being so HOF worthy that I would link their name with mine. This year # 6 is Mike Piazza (9 last year) and # 5 is the crime dog himself , Fred McGriff (McGriff was not in my top 10 last year.)
If I were given a HOF ballot, my ballot would contain 4 names. Th 4th name would be Jeff Bagwell. (Jeff was 7th on my list of 8 players on my official unofficial ballot last year.
If I was given a HOF ballot and told to vote for only 3 players, the 3rd player would be Lee Smith (he was my 5th choice last year) . Relievers and Designated hitters get discriminated on by many voters and it is a shame that Smith is not yet in and does not figure to get in on the writer's ballot.
If I could only vote for 2 players in the HOF, it would be very easy to pick those 2. #2 would be Ken Griffey Jr.(This is his first year on the ballot.
#1 would be Tim Raines. (Raines was my 2nd choice in 2015, thrird choice in 2014, 1st choice back in 2011 and 2nd choice in 2010) Raines should already be in by now. he only has 2 more years to go from his 55% of the vote last year to the 75% needed,
That is who I would vote for. Here are my predictions for how I think the vote went.
I think 3 of the following 5 players will be elected to the Hall this year. Well, Ken Griffey is a lock.
So actually 2 of Raines, Bagwell, Piazza and Hoffman. My heart says Bagwell and Raines my head says Piazza and either Bagwell or Hoffman.

Article Title
Simultaneous Parasitism of Field-Collected Green Cloverworm, Hypena Scabra (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) Larvae by Endoparasitioids and an Entomopathogenic Fungus
Document Type
Peer-Review Article
The impacts of entomopathogens (e.g., fungi, bacteria, protists and viruses) on larval Lepidoptera and their associated insect parasitoids have been examined in laboratory studies but field studies of interaction between these two mortality factors are rare. We present field observations of concurrent insect parasitism and fungal disease infection in larvae of the green cloverworm, Hypena scabra, a sporadic pest of soybean (Glycine max) in North America. We reared ten parasitoid species from H. scabra larvae during our three-month study. Three parasitoid species were dominant and overlapped the period of infection by the entomopathogenic fungus Nomuraea rileyi: Aleiodes nolophanae, Cotesia plathypenae and Campylochaeta plathypenae. Two of the three parasitoid species, Co. plathypenae and Ca. plathypenae, completed development within H. scabra larvae infected by N. rileyi. Overall incidence of simultaneous parasitism and fungal infection was low, averaging 6.7% of H. scabra larvae parasitized by Ca. plathypenae and 3.3% of those parasitized by Co. plathypenae.

Seismic Devices For Bridges

Paper DOI

D. Mestrovic & G. Grebenar
The paper summarizes earthquake calculation in accordance with Eurocode 8, ACI regulations and codes applied in Croatia (Europe). Basic data about earthquakes are given and an overview of seismic devices is presented. Calculations for Zeceve Drage (Croatia) bridge are made. Time history analysis was calculated for accelograms based on earthquakes occurring in Petrovac (1979), with magnitude of 6.8, and in Ulcinj (1979), with magnitude 5.3, (former Yugoslavia). New methods of structure protection with dampers were applied on the bridge. Spectrum analysis based on EC8/2 for ground acceleration of 0.19g for the past period of 500 years, and time history analysis for ground acceleration of 0.25g and for the past period of 1000 years was used. The damper effect on a bridge with two spans was tested in a laboratory of Civil Engineering Faculty of Zagreb University, Croatia. Keywords: seismic devices, damper, elastomer bearing. 1 Introduction When designing structures in seismically active regions, it is essential to know characteristics of ground motion. Regulations usually determine maximum effective ground acceleration. The earthquake ground shaking is usually presented in the form of a response spectrum of acceleration. That acceleration is actually an attempt to describe potentially destructive ground motion. Generally, acceleration tends to be equal with actual maximum ground acceleration resulting from an earthquake. Site conditions of soil, such as its type and load bearing capacity, are also important. If short periods prevail, structure is rigid and founded on rocky soil, then such structure has small natural periods and earthquake would have catastrophic effects on this kind of structure. And if a structure is slender and founded on soft ground and subjected to earthquake with predominant longer
seismic devices, damper, elastomer bearing.

The SEC has proposed rule amendments designed to streamline financial disclosure requirements applicable to registered debt offerings for guarantors, issuers of guaranteed securities, and affiliates. The amendments to Regulation S-X Rules 3-10 and 3-16 would focus on the materiality of information in the required disclosures and making them easier for investors to understand, with an eye toward reducing compliance burdens (Financial Disclosures About Guarantors and Issuers of Guaranteed Securities and Affiliates Whose Securities Collateralize a Registrant's Securities, Release No. 33-10526, July 24, 2018).
"I have seen firsthand instances in which an issuer did not pursue SEC registration of a debt offering that included a subsidiary guarantee or pledge of affiliate securities as collateral because of the costs and, in particular, time burdens of these rules," said SEC Chairman Jay Clayton.
Required disclosures. A guarantee of a debt security is a separate security under the Securities Act and, as a result, offers and sales of these guarantees must be registered or qualify for an exemption from registration. If the offer and sale is registered, the issuer of the debt security and the guarantor must each file audited annual and unaudited interim financial statements under Regulation S-X. Rule 3-10 requires the filing of financial statements for all issuers and guarantors of registered securities and provides several exceptions, including for individual subsidiaries when a parent company provides certain disclosures in its consolidated financial statements. Rule 3-16 requires a registrant to provide separate financial statements for each affiliate whose securities constitute a substantial portion of the collateral for any class of registered securities as if the affiliate were separately registered.
Rule 3-10 changes. Under the proposal, Rule 3-10 would continue to permit the omission of separate financial statements of subsidiaries when the parent company provides supplemental financial and non-financial disclosure about the subsidiary issuers and guarantors and the guarantees. The proposed amendments would, however, replace the condition that a subsidiary issuer or guarantor be 100-percent-owned by the parent company with a condition that it be consolidated in the parent company's financial statements and replace condensed consolidating financial information with disclosures consisting of summarized financial information of issuers and guarantors while reducing the number of periods presented.
In addition, the proposed non-financial disclosures would expand the qualitative disclosures about issuers, guarantors, and guarantees and permit the disclosures to be provided outside the footnotes to the parent company's consolidated financial statements while requiring that the proposed disclosures be included in the footnotes to the parent company's consolidated financial statements for annual and quarterly reports. The proposal would require the disclosures for as long as the issuers and guarantors have an Exchange Act reporting obligation with respect to the guaranteed securities instead of the period during which the guaranteed securities are outstanding.
Proposed Rule 13-01 in new Article 13 of Regulation S-X would specify the disclosure requirements for the accompanying proposed disclosures.
Rule 3-16 changes. Under the proposal, the disclosure requirements of Rule 3-16 would be amended and moved to proposed Rule 13-02, and the existing requirement to provide separate financial statements for each affiliate whose securities are pledged as collateral would be replaced with a mandate to provide financial and non-financial disclosures about the affiliate and the collateral arrangement as a supplement to the consolidated financial statements of the issuer.
In addition, the proposed changes would permit the disclosures to be placed in filings in the same manner as those related to guarantors and guaranteed securities and would replace the requirement to provide disclosure only when the pledged securities reach a certain threshold, with a requirement to provide the disclosures in all cases unless they are immaterial.
According to the SEC, the proposed changes are designed to focus disclosures on information that is material in light of particularized circumstances while making the disclosures easier for investors to understand. The proposed changes are also intended to reduce compliance costs in order to encourage issuers to offer guaranteed or collateralized securities on a registered basis to increase investor protections and to improve transparency in the market to the extent more offerings are registered. The change may also increase issuers' flexibility to include guarantees or pledges of affiliate securities as collateral when they structure debt offerings, which could lower capital costs, the release explains.
While ultimately supporting the proposal, Commissioner Kara Stein expressed reservations about the potential for a "slippery slope." She highlighted concerns about the proposal's "increased flexibility" to allow removal of certain information from audited financial statements, noting that this plan could threaten the availability of high-quality financial reporting by providing companies with the "option" of providing material information to investors outside of audited financial statements. "To move away from investor and market accountability, without having a full understanding of the reasons behind doing so, is troubling," she said.
Comments on the proposal are due within 60 days of publication in the Federal Register.
The release is No. 33-10526.

It is almost a cliché to say that travelling broadens the mind. But how, and in what way?
If you are prepared to empty your mind of daily routines and you don't try to recreate them where you are going, if you don't go travelling with the purpose of comparing a new place with what you know, If you are prepared to look past the obvious, past the sights and sounds of the travel brochures and blogs, if you believe that "the world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page" then it can be the most creative experience.
I have travelled to more than 100 countries and the result is a sense that the world really is not all it seems. I have learned not to accept life at face value, not to judge people's actions by comparison to my own I have learned that I and indeed my own community are a tiny part of the while. I have learned that culture is always defined by humanity however different it might be. I have learned that sights and sounds and scents are nectar. I have learned that being alone in travel for those moments when you are completely absorbed my your new experiences and there is no one who knows where you are or what you are experiencing at that moment is liberating. I have learned from travel to be free.
The net result? I have become more creative and more tolerant because I have learned that we all share a common humanity but each new experience is part of the raw materials from which we may better build ourselves.

Dystopia is not a condition that appears overnight. Its groundwork is laid by people who make decisions and foster policies which, by their consequences, sow the seeds of dystopia. This week Tucson began to enter that world when the Armed Citizen Project declared that they wanted to, "Take back our city, and it needs to come back to the citizens and not the criminals." That was the battle cry of Shawn McClusky: realtor, failed politician and Tea Party darling.
McClusky's cunning plan is to spend $12,000 giving shotguns away in neighborhoods with high violence, in an effort to curb crime. That comes out to about 25-30 shotguns introduced into high crime neighborhoods. What could possibly go wrong?
On the surface, McClusky's plan appears to be just a knee-jerk reaction to crime. But it is not. For the past number of years, as Tucson has tried to raise taxes to fund their fire and police departments, McClusky has been front and center shouting the Tea Party mantra of anti-government, anti-spending, and anti-tax; apparently clueless that those economic demands have very serious consequences. And, in Tucson, those consequences, since 2009, have included layoffs within the police department, cutting its strength from a recommended 1113 sworn officers in 2009 to 968 in 2013, while the population has increased from 517.000 in 2009 to approximately 600,000 in 2013.
Tucson Police Chief Roberto Villaseñor states they are understaffed by 150 officers out of over 1000.
According to Tucson Police Public Affairs Sgt Marie Hawke, there are nearly 100 officers funded under COPS grants, a federal grant program funded through the Stimulus Package of 2009 and now closed to new grant applications. This program was strongly opposed by the Tea Party.
With his high-profile opposition to Proposition 200 in 2009 and Proposition 400 in 2010, Shawn McClusky has directly contributed to the higher crime problems which he now tries to solve by arming citizens to do police work. The irrational decisions to starve government while, at the same time, complain that the police can't do their jobs defies logic. Yet this is the path Shawn McClusky has chosen, and in helping to build that underfunded public service, he helped create the dystopia which causes irrational, fearful decisions.
This brings us to two things: just how bad is crime in Tucson and what are the consequences of these Tea Party/Armed Citizen Project decisions?
The Armed Citizen Project website says that "Tucson currently has a ranking of 5 out of 100 (100 being safest)" in terms of crime safety, though it fails to name the survey. Looking at the FBI Crime Statistics for 2011, Tucson ranks pretty much in the middle of cities that have over 200,000 populations. With 652 violent crimes per 100,000 population, it is 35/72, with Detroit being 72/72 with a rate of 2,137 violent crimes per 100,000 population. Like most cities, crime in Tucson is concentrated in several neighborhoods. In most cities this is where the police channel their resources, unless of course they have been constrained from doing so by low-tax, small government zealots who block the revenue streams that fund police departments.
But instead of allowing a city to manage its crime problems in established, proven ways, McClusky wants to arm citizens, using the NRA mantra of "the only way to stop a bad guy is a good guy with a gun," even though Arizona has one of the higher gun ownerships rates in the nation, a condition that should mean that there is less crime because of more guns. But apparently panic and fear-driven thought is trying to suggest otherwise.
And it brings us to the goal, or perceived goal, of an armed citizenry to fight crime in an area where the same folks have fought to defund and underfund the very agency that is tasked with fighting crime. Are we heading back to the Wild, Wild West? Back to a time when every man was armed to fight off marauding hordes of bad guys riding into town? Back to a time when the solution was the Gunfight at the OK Corral rather than a solution involving the rule of law?
In dystopia, and in the paranoia of many of today's doomsday preppers, one of the most common scenarios is WROL: Without Rule of Law. And in Tucson, one group is beginning the slide into that future, both by defunding the public servants who enforce rule of law and by arming the citizens with shotguns and fear to tear at its very fabric.

Success Stories
The DDS ministry changed my life. DDS showed me that I can have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and how to obtain it. My faith grew during my quiet times with God. I learned that I have access to the Holy Spirit……………….
How the Ladies of Divine Discipleship for Sisters (DDS) Had My Back
My God, my God, how amazing. God has a way of looking out for us even when we have no idea what we need. In 2006 a few months after joining FBCG, I was invited to join a ministry call Divine Discipleship for Sisters (DDS) which was just being introduced into the church………………
My LIH experience was amazing! I saw the Lord transform women's lives. Revelation of His Word brought new life to us all. Women for the first time had a safe place to be transparent. As a result of this experience, sisters were healed by God, redeemed, delivered from shame, hurt, and pain. Women who were broken have been knit back together and set free to serve others in the Kingdom of God.
–Danielle Simms
DDS 2005 graduate
Like many Christians, I grew up in the church attending bible study, listening to the word, singing in the choir and participating in ministries. Yet, I still felt as though something was missing. The missing link was intimacy with Christ. Living In Him and Masterlife, the two curriculums under the umbrella of Divine Discipleship for Sisters, helped to redefine my relationship with Christ. Today I'm more confident with myself and my relationship with Jesus Christ.
–Regenia Mapson
DDS 2006 graduate
DDS gave me the desire to pursue a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ. Through this intensive program, I gained a greater understanding of God, myself and other people. I've developed lifelong relationships with the women who took the journey with me because we shared secrets, learned and memorized scripture together, and prayed for one another. DDS also has provided the opportunity to use the gifts God has given me in a variety of ways.
This is a life-changing experience every woman should undertake. Although our churches are full of women, many are unhappy and miserable due to their inability to understand themselves and really apply the word of God to their everyday lives. I believe this program can help every woman understand herself and overcome challenges in her home, marriage and community by learning to first seek the face of Christ.

Supreme Court of North Dakota
August 17, 2016
New Public School District # 8, Appellantv.State Board of Public School Education, Appellee and Kristi L. Gutierrez, Respondent
from the District Court of Williams County, Northwest
Judicial District, the Honorable Paul W. Jacobson, Judge.
Amy L.
De Kok (argued) and David R. Phillips (appeared), for
Christopher S. Joseph, Office of the Attorney General, for
Sandstrom, Justice.
1] New Public School District #8 appeals from a judgment
affirming the State Board of Public School Education's
decision approving annexation of certain real properties to
the Williston School District. New Public School District
argues the State Board erred in approving the petition for
annexation because the property to be annexed was not
contiguous to the Williston School District before the
petition was heard. We affirm.
2] On January 21, 2015, the State Board approved annexation
of property owned by Halliburton Energy Services to the
Williston School District. The Halliburton property is
adjacent or contiguous to the Williston School District. The
annexation of the Halliburton property was to become
effective on July 1, 2015.
3] In February 2015, Kristi and Derek Gutierrez and Sharyn
Silverio jointly petitioned to annex to the Williston School
District their properties which were part of the New Public
School District. At that time, neither the Silverio property
nor the Gutierrez property was contiguous to the Williston
School District. The Silverio property is adjacent to the
Halliburton property, and the Gutierrez property is adjacent
to the Silverio property. The Gutierrez family has two
school-age children.
4] On March 26, 2015, the Williams County Reorganization
Committee held a hearing on the annexation petition. Kristi
Gutierrez testified in support of the petition, and the
superintendent of the New Public School District testified
against it. After the hearing, the County Committee approved
the petition, stating the children's distance to school,
busing, inconvenience to the family, the parents' and
students' wishes, and the parents' voting rights were
all reasons supporting the annexation. The County Committee
also noted annexation was the only way the children would be
able to attend the Williston School District.
5] The Gutierrez-Silverio annexation petition was submitted
to the State Board for final approval and a hearing was held
on May 18, 2015. Kristi Gutierrez and the New Public School
District superintendent testified. The State Board approved
the petition, finding various relevant factors supported
annexation, including that the Gutierrez family had been told
their home was located in the Williston School District when
they purchased the home, the home builder had said the
children would attend the neighborhood school located in the
Williston School District, there was no other way the
children would be able to attend school in the Williston
School District, annexation would allow the petitioners to
vote and run for office in the Williston School District, and
the Williston School District supported annexation. The State
Board found the annexation petition met the statutory
requirements of N.D.C.C. §§ 15.1-12-03 and
15.1-12-04, including that the property will be contiguous to
the Williston School District on July 1, 2015, the effective
date of annexation.
6] New Public School District appealed the State Board's
decision, arguing the annexation petition did not meet
statutory requirements, because the subject property was not
contiguous to the Williston School District before or at the
time of the county committee hearing. The district court
affirmed the State Board's decision.
7] The district court had jurisdiction under N.D. Const. art.
VI, § 8, and N.D.C.C. §§ 15.1-12-05(13),
27-05-06, and 28-32-42. New Public School District's
appeal to this Court was timely under N.D.R.App.P. 4(a) and
N.D.C.C. § 28-32-49. This Court has jurisdiction under
N.D. Const. art. VI, §§ 2 and 6, and N.D.C.C.
§ 28-32-49.
8] The State Board is an administrative agency, and we review
its decision as we review decisions by other administrative
agencies. In re Lewis & Clark Pub. Sch. Dist.
#161, 2016 ND 41, ¶ 5, 876 N.W.2d 40. We review the

iTWire's Graeme Philipson labelled this year's Click Frenzy "a click flop", so it will be interesting to see how the competing Cyber Monday promotion organised by Clicko Deals fares next Monday.
According to Clicko Deals founder Mark Freidin, 200 small businesses have joined the promotion and will be offering items such as shoes, handbags, swimwear, travel products, and plants.
Big names participating in Australia's Cyber Monday include "US brands such as Macys, Bloomingdales, Sheplers and eBags as well as well-known Australian brands such as Bonds, David Lawrence and Tool HQ," he said.
"Some of the other one day sales are expensive to participate in. Small businesses can't afford that - and besides the more deals consumers have to choose from the better from our perspective," he said.
Freidin added "It will be interesting to see whether Australians show the same appetite to Cyber Monday."
It will also be interesting to see whether Clicko releases hard numbers on how well the event performs for participating retailers.

"Salesmen at the grand Bazaar are great conversationalists and Turkish hospitality also gets you a free cup of tea, but maybe not the best carpet"
Travelling is like a breath of fresh air from our usual mundane lives. Every country or city is unique and fascinating in its own way. My recent trip to Istanbul is a testimony to this truth. Istanbul, earlier known as Constantinople, was the capital of three major empires of civilization in the antiquity –the Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman Empires. This history should give you an inkling as to how rich this city's cultural heritage is. What makes this city even more special is that it is spread over Asia and Europe, the only city in the world that is part of two different continents. And through my journey, I was able to soak it all in – its cosmopolitan present, and its regal past.
Being a traveler and not a tourist I set out to explore the city by myself and not with paid tours – such an outlook helps to discover the true heart of the city. I decided to break down my stay in two different hotels so I wouldn't miss out on the small revelations of the city. My first pick was the Grand Hyatt Istanbul in Taksim – it is highly popular with the locals and tourists. There is a certain kind of energizing vibe this area holds. It's surrounded by properties from some of the best hotel brands in the world – the Intercontinental, the Ritz Carlton, Hilton and many more, which are just a stone's throw away from the famous pedestrian street in Taksim, known as Istiklal Street.
This street has become a favored spot for retail therapy, whilst enjoying street artists perform. The stores vary from high-end brands to absolutely local boutiques, and also some street shopping as you deviate from the Main Street. As you burn your calories walking down this street, building up an appetite, you could pay heed to your grumbling hungry stomach and take a pick from the plethora of street-food options, ranging from local Turkish cuisine to the globally famous hamburgers. The Turkish delight and the mouth-watering baklava are a must try.
Nisantasi is a well-kept secret of the locals when it comes to shopping – not a surprise since it is a true shopper's paradise. The sidewalks are filled with fashion boutiques while the backstreets comprise of achingly inviting local cafes and restaurants. While enjoying a meal in one such café a little birdie told me about how they have another undisclosed shopping market kept away from the tourists – Laleli, on the Asian side of the city. The stone embellished and hand embroidered gowns here would surely get you an envious look when donned. The famous Grand Bazaar in Istanbul is in accords with many people's image of paradise when it comes to shopping for leather and jewelry. The Turkish rug buying experience at the Grand Bazaar is a grand spectacle, but beware – most of them are actually made in China. The salesmen at the Grand Bazaar are great conversationalists, so if you need to pour your heart out swing into one of the shops, and Turkish hospitality also gets you a free cup of tea, but maybe not the best carpet.
Those seeking to buy an authentic Turkish handmade carpet should go to the stores that are set up before you enter Grand Bazaar – not only are they stores but also workshops where you can experience the entire process from its inception to possession. The vibrant part of my personality completely felt at home at the spice market, which is a part of what the locals called the Old City. The stimulating, bright colors of the artifacts left me spellbound. I couldn't hold myself back from picking up the local spices and their specialty – dried fruits and vegetables. After an exhausting day of shopping, the idea of a relaxing Bosporus cruise starting from the Spice Market was something I personally couldn't resist. As I sat gazing at the setting sun, turning the water into liquid gold I wished that this moment last forever, while I was trying to take in all its beauty. At night the galaxies seem to descend like diamonds as I sat gorging on a sumptuous meal on the cruise.
When it comes to unraveling the soul of a city, it's culture and heritage is the most integral aspect. The most celebrated spot in Istanbul is the Blue Mosque, or the Sultan Ahmed Mosque, as the locals call it. The mosque gets its name from the handmade Iznik style blue tiles, which decorate the insides of the mosque in different tulip styles. When you enter the interior you can't help but let out a gasp marveling at the craftsmanship. Standing in the mosque I could sense the peace and stillness within; the aura of calm made me feel as if time had come to a standstill as I stood taking in all the serenity.
Abreast the mosque lies the magnificent Hagia Sophia, initially constructed as a church, then converted into a mosque when it was captured by the Ottoman imperialists in 1453. What especially gained my admiration and respect was how Islam and Christianity were beautifully represented under one roof. The Hagia Sophia is the second most visited monument in Turkey, and after having been a mosque and a church in the past, it was finally secularised in 1935, when the Turkish government turned it into a museum. The Topkapi Palace lies in the same proximity as these two marvels, it served as the residence and administrative headquarters for the Ottoman Sultans in the 15th century.
It is spread out over a vast area and is divided into four courtyards each dedicated for a specific purpose. I truly enjoyed exploring the museums it held inside, and the religious room that held many scared objects – right from the footprint of Prophet Muhammad to the sword of King David – and to top it all off, the rod that let Moses part the Red Sea according to the Exodus in the Bible. The architectural grandeur is impressive and awe-inspiring, but its interiors seem humble when compared to the Dolmabahçe Palace the sultans later built. Contrary to the modest past residence of the Ottoman Empire, this palace has a contemporary style that oozes comfort, luxury, and splendor.
Overlooking the marvelous Bosporus Strait, I could imagine the sultans leisurely idling in their balconies in their spare time. One of the highlights of my trip was swinging by the Basilica Cistern, which was a shoot location in the infamous Bond movie – From Russia With Love – such a fangirl moment. The cistern was built in the 6th century and it took nearly 7000 slaves to complete its construction. It is the largest cistern beneath the city of Istanbul. You must catch the twin-block carved Medusa head pillars since it is still a mystery as to how they got there. As dusk approached, I hastily made my way to the Galata Tower – a medieval tower more than 200-feet tall, which was mostly used to spot fires during the Ottoman period. Now it stands tall amidst the city.
Subsequent to such feverishly busy days I was yearning for some downtime, I was highly pleased when it was time to shift to my second hotel, the Çiragan Palace Kempinski Hotel. Built in 1867, this property is a perfect balance of heritage and extravagance. There is a silent splendor to the palace hotel – grand but reassuringly soft. I felt like a Disney princess living in her happily ever after home; the spa and hammam wouldn't have you feel any other way. Their heated outdoor infinity pool overlooking the luminous blueness of the Bosporus stole my heart. Even though the property is tremendously widespread, a member of the staff is just a glance away. Surrounded by premium restaurants and eateries I accidentally stumbled upon the Ortaköy vicinity – a ten-minute walk from the hotel.
The locals surely wouldn't thank me for letting out this under-the-wraps spot of theirs. This whimsical area bordering the water has many cafes, tea-houses, and restaurants that seem to be born of love, warmth and a sense of abundance. It's claimed that Napoleon Bonaparte once said, "If the world were a single state, Istanbul would be its capital." Somewhat surprisingly, Istanbul seduced me in a way no other city has. This exotic city for me has become a place of love, indulgence, laughter, and opulence. I've only scratched the surface of this centuries-old cultural capital of Turkey, and have been hungry to explore even more ever since. Until we meet again, Istanbul.

Planning consent for a £1 billion scheme designed by PLP has been quashed after the local authority accused housing secretary Robert Jenrick of being biased towards developer and tycoon Richard Desmond
Jenrick granted permission for the Westferry Printworks development on 14 January, despite it being heavily criticised by Tower Hamlets, the Greater London Authority (GLA) and the government's own planning inspector.
The scheme, which was brought forward by media tycoon-turned-property developer Richard Desmond, included 1,524 homes as well as shops, banks, bars and offices on the Isle of Dogs site in east London.
But the government has admitted Jenrick's decision was unlawful after the local authority, Tower Hamlets Council, launched legal proceedings in March.
Tower Hamlets alleged that the timing of Jenrick's decision demonstrated his bias in favour of granting permission to the scheme, as consent was given one day before the council's revised Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) rates came into force.
The council asked the High Court to order the government to disclose documents that it said would show Jenrick was influenced by a desire to help the developer save between £30 and £50 million by avoiding the new charges.
However, according to the council: 'Faced with the prospect of having to release documentation relating to the decision, the secretary of state chose to allow the planning permission to be quashed.'
John Biggs, mayor of Tower Hamlets, said: 'We may never know what emails and memos the secretary of state received before making his decision and what influence they had, but his reluctance to disclose them speaks volumes.
'In siding with the developer, he went against not only the planning inspector but also the council's Strategic Development Committee and the residents whose lives would be directly impacted by this scheme.
He added: 'We will continue to press for a scheme that meets the needs of the community on the Isle of Dogs in terms of height and density, the provision of adequate affordable housing and infrastructure delivery.'
A spokesperson for the Ministry of Housing, Communities & Local Government said: 'While we reject the suggestion that there was any actual bias in the decision, we have agreed that the application will be redetermined.'
PLP's now-rejected scheme included five stepped towers – the largest standing at 44 storeys – which would have provided 282 affordable homes alongside 1,242 market homes.
It followed an earlier application for just 722 PLP-designed homes on the site, which was approved by Boris Johnson during his last week in office as Mayor of London.
The latest version of the scheme was criticised by the planning inspector for reasons including damage to heritage assets, its harmful effect on the character of the area, its lack of affordable housing and the fact it was 'in conflict with the [local] development plan as a whole'.
The GLA, which also launched legal action against the government following Jenrick's shock decision to grant planning consent, previously accused the developer of paying 'insufficient attention to any factor other than seeking to maximise the amount of market housing'.
The GLA has now dropped its legal action and Jules Pipe, deputy mayor for planning and regeneration, said he was 'very pleased' that planning consent had been quashed.
He added: 'We remain concerned about the scale of the scheme and its proposed development of locally-designated open space. We expect any future decision by ministers to take all our concerns into account'.

We get asked almost on a daily basis, what can I expect as far as outcomes from a stem cell injection in my knee for moderate to severe osteoarthritis? While we have begun to report large scale outcomes, an average outcome number like 55% patient reported improvement, at one year, means less to most patients. The issue is that it's a difficult number to conceptualize (that number means that averaging in the failures with the patients that did exceptional, the averaged reported improvement was 55%). However, here are some knee outcome numbers (mean about 1 year after the procedure) that make more day to day sense to patients:
For 126 patients reporting and 29 patients that failed to respond (drop out rate of 23%). Approximately 75% of these patients were knee replacement candidates, 25% were knee surgery candidates to treat a solitary osteochondral lesion (micro fracture, ACI, MACI):
66.7% of patients are reporting more than 50% improvement
43.7% of patients are reporting better than 75% improvement
We are preparing this data for publication…

If you are reading this on a Windows 10 device, then you are one in 75 million people currently running the operating system. We reported last week that Windows 10 hit the 53 million mark, but now that number has been pushed to 75 million devices.
According to Microsoft, Windows 10 is currently installed on 75 million devices across 192 countries. 90,000 unique PC or tablet models have upgraded to the new OS, even devices manufactured before 2007. The Xbox App is responsible for 10 million achievement unlocks and over 122 years of combined gameplay streaming to Windows 10. Cortana has told over half a million jokes in response to "tell me a joke". Windows 10 has seen 6 times more downloading of apps than Window 8/8.1.
Some pretty neat figures, which will keep growing daily as Windows 10 carries on taking over the world.

Your bathroom is one of the most used areas of your homes. This area needs special cleaning attention because of how frequently it is used. Here are some amazing tips that will make bathroom cleaning a breeze!
clean your bathroom sink.
Your bathroom sink goes through quite a bit of grime and dirt each day. Regular cleaning can keep it clean and sparkling.
· Remove film and light soil by using an all-purpose bathroom cleaner. You can use soft-scrub or abrasive cleaners for deposits that are a bit more stubborn, as they are easy to rinse from ceramic surfaces.
· Sanitize your sink and get rid of toothpaste dribbles by using cleaners formulated with bleach.
· Use an all-purpose bathroom cleaner or a disinfecting spray glass cleaner to clean the fixtures and the rim.
· Use a dry cleaning cloth to shine fixtures.
Clean your shower and bathtub.
Shower and tub areas are prone to getting clogged with mildew, mold, dirt and grime. The longer you ignore it, the more stubborn the deposits get, and the harder it is to clean them. Here are some ways to make cleaning easier.
· Arm yourself with a toothbrush. It is a fantastic tool for cleaning the crevices in your shower area or tub.
· Every time you take a shower, spray it down with a daily shower spray or an all-purpose bathroom cleaner. These shower sprays prevent buildup and keep your shower looking great. Let the product the stand for a few minutes and in the meantime, you can take a shower. This allows the cleanser to dissolve the soap scum and oils, so that you have to spend less time and effort scrubbing.
· Store a squeegee in your shower area so that you can give it a quick wipe down every time you are in there to prevent buildup.
· Use a scrubbing pad with an abrasive surface to get rid of buildup.
· Use a tile brush or a toothbrush to scrub the tiles, and reach into the cracks and hard-to-reach corners.
· You can use a detachable showerhead to rinse everything away more quickly and efficiently. Be sure to rinse well and leave no soapy residue, which will in turn form buildup over time.
You can try these super natural DIY shower cleaners:
· Use a mixture of equal part water and vinegar to clean tiles, cabinet fronts, counters, and soap buildup in the shower.
· Use a paste of water and baking soda to clean grime stuck in the shower and tub. For tougher stains, replace the water with vinegar.
Clean you glass shower doors, and fiberglass showers.
Glass areas in your bathroom require special care and attention. Here's how to deal with them:
· Clean fiberglass showers and glass doors with a nonabrasive cleaner such as baking soda, pine oil or an all-purpose bathroom cleaner.
· Scrubbing pads or abrasive cleansers should be avoided as they might dull or scratch the finish.
· Use white vinegar to clean cloudy glass shower doors.
· Be sure to protect your skin and ventilate the area when you are working with these products.
how to clean you bathroom mirrors.
· Spray your mirrors down with a mixture of equal part water and vinegar and wipe it with an old rag or newspaper to get it sparkling. Avoid using paper towels, as they leave a lot of residue.
· Use one wet and one dry microfiber cloth to clean your mirror without using any chemicals. Use the wet one first to clean the mirror, and the dry one to polish it.
How to clean your bathroom toilet.
Most people abhor cleaning their toilets. It's a tough job, but someone has to do it! With these tips, it won't be too rough.
· Add a liquid or granulated toilet bowl cleaner into the bowl and allow it to stand for a couple of minutes so that germs are terminated and deposits are dissolved.
· Your weapon of choice is a good quality brush, which allows for proper maneuverability. A mashed or flattened brush just won't work as well as one whose bristles are intact. Curved bowl brushes are great because they reach up and under the rim of the toilet to scrub away hidden deposits.
· If you have any particularly stubborn rings, a pumice stone will do the trick. This natural stone crumbles due to its porosity. You can remove the stubborn deposit on the ring by rubbing the stone directly on it.
· Spray the toilet rims, tank, lid, seat and bowl exterior with an all-purpose bathroom cleaner or disinfecting spray. Allow it to stand for a while and then wipe it clean and dry with fresh cleaning cloths.
· There are bound to be drips and dribbles all around the toilet, especially if there are males in your home. This can lead to floor damage and odor issues. Use a cleaning toothbrush and a disinfecting cleaner to get rid of stray dribbles.
· Once a week, you can sprinkle some baking soda around the inside of the toilet to coat it. Next, add a cup of undiluted white vinegar into the water and with a toilet brush, scrub the toilet well. The chemical reaction of the vinegar and baking soda will remove any lingering smells or stains. You can use this on the floor around your bathroom as well.
· Finish cleaning your toilet with a spray and wipe it down with undiluted hydrogen peroxide.
How to clean your shower curtain.
Shower curtains can get moldy and filled with slime and film if not attended to. Here is how you combat that:
· Spray your plastic shower curtain with a good quality shower cleaner.
· Pop it into your washing machine and wash it normally.
· When the cycle is over, take your shower curtain out of the washer and hang it back up in the bathroom to drip dry.

This very strange word is used in chemistry and architecture with very different meanings! The following is from an architectural perspective and has other strange words, like ocularcentrism, deliberately put here to get google hits! It feels a bit postmodern, but stay with it!
Hapticity And Time
Architectural Review, The, May, 2000 by Juhani Pallasmaa
Materials and surfaces have a richly complex language of their own that evolves and changes over time. In this major essay, Juhani Pallasmaa puts the case for haptic, sensuous architecture.
Modern consciousness and sensory reality have gradually developed towards the unrivalled dominance of the sense of vision. This thought-provoking development has been observed and analyzed by a number of philosophers in recent years.
[1] David Michael Levin, one of today's thinkers concerned with the hegemony of vision, motivates the philosophical critique of the visual bias in the following words: 'I think it is appropriate to challenge the hegemony of vision in the ocularcentrism of our culture.
And I think we need to examine very critically the character of vision that predominates today in our world. We urgently need a diagnosis of the psychosocial pathology of everyday seeing — and a critical understanding of ourselves, as visionary beings'. [2]
I believe likewise that many aspects of the pathology of today's architecture can also be understood through a critique of the ocular bias of our culture. As a consequence of the power of the eye over the other sensory realms, architecture has turned into an art form of instant visual image. Instead of creating existential microcosms, embodied representations of the world, architecture projects retinal images for the purpose of immediate persuasion.
Flatness of surfaces and materials, uniformity of illumination, as well as the elimination of micro-climatic differences, further reinforce the tiresome and soporific uniformity of experience.
All in all, the tendency of technological culture to standardize environmental conditions and make the environment entirely predictable is causing a serious sensory impoverishment.
Our buildings have lost their opacity and depth, sensory invitation and discovery, mystery and shadow.
Multi-sensory experience: the significance of touch
Every significant experience of architecture is multi-sensory; qualities of matter, space and scale are measured by the eye, ear, nose, skin, tongue, skeleton and muscle.
Maurice Merleau-Ponty emphasizes this simultaneity of experience and sensory interaction as follows:
'My perception is [therefore] not a sum of visual, tactile, and audible givens: I perceive in a total way with my whole being: I grasp a unique structure of the thing, a unique way of being, which speaks to all my senses at once'."….

Culture Trip stands with
Black Lives Matter
Occupying a large part of central Warsaw, Śródmieście is the city's most vibrant district. It covers everything from the picturesque Old Town in the north (Warsaw's main tourist destination, located close to beautiful landmarks such as Castle Square, Krakowskie Przedmieście Street, the Presidential Palace and St. Anne's Church), to the riverside Powiśle district (home to the must-see Copernicus Science Centre museum) and South Śródmieście in the south – a lively area, loved by locals, full of cool shops, bars and restaurants (Mokotowska Street is great for shopping, Poznańska has plenty of food options and the hipster Plac Zbawiciela is the perfect place to have drinks).
Mokotów is a huge district south of the city centre, very well connected to the rest of Warsaw (by tube, buses and trams). Its home to most of Warsaw's foreign embassies, elegant private villas, the Warsaw School of Economics, the impressive Neoclassical Królikarnia Palace (which also houses a sculpture museum) and a variety of restaurants and cafés (for traditional Polish food head to restaurant Różana and grab a coffee at the cult Relaks café).
Occupying only 8.5 sq km north of the city centre and west from the Vistula River, Żoliborz (from the french "joli bord" or beautiful bank/embankment'). It's definitely one of the most peaceful places to live in the city. It's also known for its great architecture. If you are in the area make sure you take a stroll around its most charming streets. Highlights of the area include the Warsaw Citadel, lovely restaurants and cafés. Check out Fawory, Dom, Porananas and the weekend Breakfast Market ('Targ Śniadaniowy').
The residential borough of Ursynów is known for its affordable housing options and close proximity to green spaces. Its southern outskirts border the Kabaty forest, which is a perfect place for half day cycling and Nordic walking trips.
Wilanów is an extremely popular residential area (especially among families), which features a mix of exclusive villas and modern apartment blocks. It's also home to the historic Wilanów Palace (also called 'the Polish Versailles'), a must-see to add to your Warsaw sightseeing list.
Stanisława Kostki Potockiego 10/16, 02-958 Warszawa, Poland
Praga is one of the oldest parts of Warsaw and you'll see many buildings which survived the Second World War almost intact. Once neglected, today the area is considered as the city's up and coming district and is home to alternative cafés and bars (Ząbkowska Street) and many new developments, such as the Koneser vodka factory, which is currently being converted into a trendy retail/office/residential complex.
Koneser vodka factory, 00-001 Warsaw, Poland
Located on the east side of the Vistula River, highlights of Praga-Południe include the hip Soho Factory complex (home to Warsaw's creative businesses, the Neon Museum and the fantastic Polish restaurant Warszawa Wschodnia) and the Saska Kepa neighbourhood, often compared to NYC's Williamsburg. Quiet, green and predominantly residential, it also boasts some great modernist architecture, green parks and an abundance of local cafés and restaurants (such as F30, La Cocotte Saska Kepa, Kuchnia Funkcjonalna and Think Love Juices).
Soho Factory, Mińska 25, 03-808 Warszawa, Poland

Ride Share Driving For Lyft Atlanta
Lyft is my preferred ride sharing company even before Uber started started taking negative PR hits because of their corporate culture towards women employees primarily forcing their founder to step down. When I did not own a car, I relied on mostly public transportation and that means Marta buses and trains in Atlanta as well as relying on ride share. I bought a Chevy Cruze last year and now drive exclusively for Lyft although I am cleared for Uber too. Now 1,500 rides later, it has truly been an amazing opportunity to both meet people, see the Atlanta area and places I would probably never have visited otherwise, and to understand this new age, tech-driven business model...Read More

Nature Republic Hawaiian Fresh Clear Serum Review:
I was looking for a light serum to be used in the morning that time, since my previous morning serum had depleted. And, tara! Nature Republic Hawaiian Fresh line had just been released! I've never used any Nature Republic products before except for their mask sheet, but the claim of its serum actually caught my attention. It's said to be suitable for oily skin; well I have oily skin and I exactly don't want my face looks greasy for the entire day. Plus, it claims to treat pore-clogging, too; it has all my skin wants!
This rich, moisturizing clear serum makes skin feel silky, soft, and clean by caring pore-cloggers
Additional Claims from the website :
Sebum control, anti acne, blackhead removal, whitehead removal
Ingredients :
Water, Silica, Cyclomethicone, Cyclopentasiloxane, Butylene Glycol, Betaine, Dimethicone/Vinyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer, Polysorbate 20, Pentylene Glycol, Ulmus Davidiana Root Extract, Amaranthus Caudatus Seed Extract, Morinda Citrifolia Extract, Piper Methysticum Leaf/Root/Stem Extract, Portulaca Oleraceae Extract, Pueraria Thunbergiana Root Extract, Glycyrrhiza Glabra (Licorice) Root Extract, Paeonia Lactiflora Root Extract, Cnidium Officinale Root Extract, Hibiscus Rosasinensis Flower/Leaf Extract, Soluble Collagen, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Sodium Hyaluronate, Hydrogenated Lecithin, Dimethicone Polyquaternium-51, Hydroxyethyl Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer, Ammonium Acryloyldimethyltaurate/ Vp Copolymer, Squalane, Sorbitan Sesquioleate, Allantoin, Xanthan Gum, Ethylhexylglycerin, Tocopheryl Acetate, Polysorbate 60, Sea Water, Alcohol, Benzophenone-4, Disodium EDTA, Lecithin, Fragrance, Phenoxyethanol
How to use :
After washing your face in the morning and at night, apply our toner to tighten pores and evenly apply an appropriate amount of the serum to the entire face
Volume : 54 mL
My Skin Type : Normal skin, oily on T-zone, some visible pores at cheek
Nature Republic Hawaiian Fresh Clear Serum Review:
Nature Republic Hawaiian Fresh Clear Serum has a green, semi-transparent, plastic primer-packaging inserted to a transparent, mica-plastic box as a secondary packaging. The primer packaging comes in a bottle with a pump, to make sure it keeps hygiene. All products information were written in the box, both in English and Korean. Very helpful!
And what I mean with 'all' is really complete enough that I don't even had to look for more information on the internet. In one side of the box, there are pictures of Hawaiian hibiscus flower and Hawaiian sea water, once again to emphasize its contents.
The serum itself has a white and viscous texture. However, it's super lightweight. It would be absorbed into your skin without any traces of viscous product (that sometimes related to greasiness). The smell is so-so too, it smells like a car perfume but disappears in no time. In my personal opinion, I don't think the smell is disturbing.
Nature Republic Hawaiian Fresh Clear Serum really means its claim to specialize oily skin bearer! Once it's applied, my skin feels so silky and soft, more into matte skin! Thus, it doesn't take much time to be absorbed. The texture itself is not runny yet very lightweight, so that a pump is more than enough for my entire face and neck. There was a time when I pumped too much, well it's not a problem since I could apply the excess to the same area and it wouldn't look greasy.
However, among four main effects that it claims (Sebum control, anti acne, blackhead removal, whitehead removal), I'm afraid only the 'sebum control' effect that works with me. I'm gonna list the website's claim and related it with what I actually feel on my skin :
"Hawaiian Fresh Clear Serum contains Hawaiian Hibiscus flower, Pure Clay, and Hawaiian Sea Water
Hawaiian Hibiscus used as an astringent which acts as a pore tightening agent and helps firm and keep skin hydrated
Hawaiian sea water helps revitalize and freshen up the skin
Controls pH levels and controls excessive sebum production levels,
preventing acne and pore clogging build up
Serum ideal oily skin type, targeting blackheads and whiteheads"
Nature Republic Fresh Clear Serum does help firming and hydrating skin, but only in a low scale. As I said before, this serum is lightweight. In another way, its lightweight texture helps freshen up my skin since it doesn't make my skin heavy.
I actually have a normal skin; only one or two pimples comes up during my period, and this serum doesn't prevent it from appearing. Well, this case is presumably hormonal while Nature Republic Hawaiian Fresh Clear Serum's claim is to prevent acnes caused by excessive sebum. And yes, it's very suitable for oily skin but it does nothing to my blackheads while I barely have whiteheads from the start.
Therefore, I could say that Nature Republic Hawaiian Fresh Clear Serum doesn't do all its claims. In a nutshell, the significant effects are just controlling sebum, freshening up the skin, and a little of firming and hydrating.
Last but not least, there is some interesting thing about the packaging. The semi-transparent bottle shows a cylinder inside in the upper part of the bottle. When I first opened this product, the cylinder could be seen in the bottom of the bottle. But as time goes by, as I keep using the serum, that cylinder goes up, and it's now at the top part of the bottle. So in short, the cylinder keeps going up as the product lessens; makes the user easy in knowing the serum's amount left.
This product might be suitable for someone with an oily skin who looks for a lightweight morning serum. For a dry-skin bearer, the hydrating ability might be not enough for you. Also, don't expect this product too much to handle blackheads and whiteheads.
Nevertheless for around $15, this serum might be worth-trying for a normal-skin bearer who only wants to keep silky and smooth skin. This product works very well to me, but since I'd like to try a lot of products, I might not repurchase for quite some times.

PhD defence - Svenja-Maria Mintert
Svenja-Maria Mintert is defending her PhD thesis
Football, Feminisation, Fans
Sociological Studies in a European Context
4 May 2015, 14:00
St. Auditorium, Nørre Allé 53, 1.,
2200 Copenhagen N
Associate Professor Laila Ottesen (chair), Department of Nutrition, Exercise and Sports, University of Copenhagen, Denmark
Albrecht Sonntag, Associate Dean for international accreditations at ESSCA, School of Management and Director of the EU-Asia Institute, France
Annette Hofmann, Ludwigsburg University of Education, Germany
Professor Gertrud Pfister, Department of Nutrition, Exercise and Sports, University of Copenhagen, Denmark
About the thesis
The overarching objective of this PhD thesis was defined to develop new knowledge and understanding about the contribution of football to gendered identity construction and negotiation.
While given the focus of this thesis on women in football consumption in a European context, the aforementioned intentions were to research the gender-specific and acting out of fandom as well as the intersection between gender and national identity.
In the five different studies, this thesis explored the role of gender in football and fan cultures with regard to gender-specific patterns of cross-cultural communication and identification.
Furthermore, it investigated how the increase in women's presence in football has caused new discourses to evolve and to shed light to what extent the feminisation of European football has modified audience perception and interpretation of the football game.
Given the comprehensiveness of time, this PhD thesis has marked out for itself an almost natural niche and delved deeper in the phenomenon 'The feminisation of football' by addressing the issue of women's movement into football, the role of women's football in the media, and foremost the complex issue of origins of female football fans.

Identifying Credit Union Technology Gaps for a Faster Recovery
Conducting a Business Impact Analysis (BIA) is the first step in building your Business Continuity Program. The BIA report describes potential risks and the projected financial impact to the Credit Union when a business disruption or disaster occurs. Equally important, though, it also outlines processes and functions within each department and functional areas and ranks them according to criticality, which helps to determine the needs/requirements to sustain business during the disruption. Each identified process and function has a stated Recovery Time Objective (RTO) – the period of time within which systems, applications or functions must be recovered after a disruption, and a stated Recovery Point Objective (RPO) – the maximum amount of data loss an organization can sustain during an event. The RTO and RPO can be determined by conducting a Risk Assessment.
After you've determined the RTO and RPO for the identified processes, it's time to determine the actuals (RTA/RPA). The actuals can only be exposed by disaster and business disruption rehearsals. There is always a recovery gap between the actuals (RTA/RPA) and objectives introduced by various manual and automated steps to restore the process. It's necessary to review those gaps and find ways to minimize them as much as possible. In some cases, you may even be able to eliminate them.
With so many processes, where do you start? Start by identifying the processes with common supporting systems. Email, for example, is one of the most critical communication tools, and many business processes are dependent upon it – especially during a disaster. If your Credit Union currently runs an in-house email server, try utilizing Hosted Exchange instead, all business processes with email as a supporting system would benefit by having a faster RTO and higher RPO. It would be one less system for IT to recover during an event, and would eliminate any recovery gap that exists with your current plan. Because of the high availability of a hosted solution, it would also reduce the impact it would cause to your members and the Credit Union by allowing you to communicate more effectively.
Another common system often identified in Credit Union business processes is the core system. Recovery times with most cores are generally within the "less than 4 hours" range, if not immediate because of instant failover to a replicated backup core. A review of critical processes for a client once revealed an RTO of "less than 12 hours" for their core. The 12 hour RTO was predominately due to travel time and restoration of their core from a tape backup. That's an incredibly long RTO for a core based on today's expectations of availability. Since replication wasn't an option, by maintaining a "stand-by" core and loading the most recent database from an offline disk-to-disk backup stored locally at their DR site, they were able to reduce the RTO by 50% with an RTA between 3 to 4 hours. That one adjustment to their recovery procedure allowed their other identified business processes to meet, and in some cases, exceed their stated RTO.
Identifying and closing the gaps for your business processes will ensure a smoother recovery and business continuity for everyone. At OGO, our Professional Services Team works with hundreds of Credit Unions to identify and fill gaps in Credit Union technology strategies. Reach out today to learn more!
