EU member states in Central and Eastern Europe continue to post rapid and sustainable pace of GDP expansion in defiance of global risks rattling the majority of advanced and Third World economies.
Kristian Rouz — Multiple reports suggest the EU and the Eurozone, in particular, are facing a threat of a recession this year due to the slowdown in German exports and GDP growth.
Eastern European member states, however, could become the EU's new economic powerhouse, as these countries continue to steadily outperform their Western peers in term of GDP, investment, and labour productivity.
According to preliminary first-quarter reports, the economies of Hungary, Poland, and Romania are poised to expand roughly 4 percent year-on-year. This is compared to the EU's average pace of annual GDP expansion of 1.5 percent in 1Q19.
Meanwhile, the German economy slipped into the red at the end of 2018, and French GDP rose 1.1 percent in Q1 after a meagre 1-percent growth in 4Q18.
"Despite the fact that Central and Eastern Europe is still struggling with low incomes in some of its regions, high economic growth rates have been recorded in this part of the EU. In contrast, older member states in Southern Europe (Portugal, Spain, Italy and Greece) have lagging regions marked by low economic growth", Romanian economists Alina Bârgăoanu and Clara Volintiru wrote in a recent blog post for the London School of Economics.
There are several reasons why Eastern Europe keeps outperforming its Western counterparts, which include looser regulations and limited government interference in the economy, looser fiscal policies, and lower indebtedness to the state, corporate, and household levels.

However, last quarter's economic growth has slowed slightly in the Czech Republic (to 2.4 percent from 2.6 percent in 4Q18), Hungary (4.9 percent vs 5.1 percent), and Poland (4.4 percent vs 4.9 percent). Meanwhile, the GDP growth rate remained steady in Bulgaria (3.2 percent), Romania (4.1 percent), and Slovakia (3.6 percent).
These differences are largely explained by the differences in these countries' trade relations with other EU member states. Economists have long suggested that a slowdown in Germany would inevitably weigh on GDP growth across Eastern Europe.
"Their export-oriented economies, embedded as they are in the German manufacturing export base, make them vulnerable to any decline in global and EU trade", Bârgăoanu and Volintiru wrote.
But so far the broader EU slowdown has only affected the countries most exposed to German trade. Romania, which is as oil-producing nation, has maintained its pace of economic growth due to high energy prices, while Slovakia's robust manufacturing and mining sectors continue to lead the expansion.
Additionally, lower levels of household debt and a socialist tradition of saving and making payments in cash have supported consumer spending at modest, yet sustainable levels — as opposed to the boom-bust credit cycle characteristic of Western societies.
"Growth in Central Europe appears to have held up well as strong domestic demand offset the impact of continued weakness in Eurozone export markets", Liam Peach of London-based Capital Economics said.
Additionally, the workforce in Central Europe — along with the costs of living — remains relatively cheap, supporting a sustainable influx of non-financial sector investments. For example, in Hungary, German car-maker BMW AG is starting work on its new $1.2-billion factory this year — and similar projects are happening across the region.

Central and Eastern Europe has also lost a significant fraction of its population due to outbound migration — with many Poles, Romanians, Czechs, and Slovaks moving the Germany and the UK over the past 15 years.
"They have also experienced big population losses (through outward migration and demographic decline), so per capita figures obviously look better", Bârgăoanu and Volintiru wrote.
Although high rates of emigration caused economic problems at first, today the situation is drastically different. The rapid expansion in manufacturing across Eastern Europe has caused severe labour shortages, pushing effective wages higher, and spurring consumer spending. The latter has led to a boom in the services sector.
Economists expect Central and Eastern Europe to defy the global economic challenges rattling the majority of advanced and Third World economies — from the US to China, and from Norway to South Africa.
"Hungarian economic growth is expected to stand out among the countries our group operates in, though the others won't be bad either", Laszlo Bencsik of the Hungarian bank OTP Bank Nyrt said. "These countries will probably keep growing, not as fast as Hungary but relatively dynamically".
Today's global economic challenges include trade tensions, skyrocketing debt and non-performing loans, along with brewing banking sector crises; higher central bank interest rates, and wage stagnation — none of which appears to pose a concern for the former Eastern Bloc members.

5 Ways To Keep Yourself Entertained As An Injured Athlete
While I will be the first to admit that hours upon hours of conditioning is pretty miserable, there are few things worse than having to sit and watch everyone play while you're hurt. As an injured athlete, you have the same hours as everyone else; you are at every workout, every lift, and every conditioning session. In addition, however, you get to be in rehab for an extra hour, at physical therapy for an extra hour, and doing cardio in the pool for an extra thirty minutes. And of course, don't forget all the mornings you have to wake up early to go to your 3rd follow-up appointment to see if you'll be cleared...and you probably won't be. From someone who specializes in being an injured athlete, here are a few tips on how to keep yourself entertained:
1. When you're running the timer for your teammates during sprints, try starting the timer at least +2 seconds after the coaches say "go." This is fun because you get to see how much you can cheat without your coaches noticing. Also, this allows everyone to complete the sprint on time, which will make your coaches very happy because they think their team is well-conditioned. This will also help you make friends on your team because some will only be completing the sprints in time because you're the one running the clock. Good work!
2. Bring nail polish to your captain's practices. Go ahead and give your nails a nice new shine while you're sitting on the bench, watching your team play. After all, your nails aren't going to paint themselves.
3. You'll be walking around campus a lot, and you may have a sling, cast, etc. When people ask you what happened, try changing up the story every now and then. Sure, you might be fibbing a bit, but who does that really hurt? You'll never see Jim again, so what's it matter if he thinks that you saved a child from a wild, rabid wolverine? You're a hero for being hurt (even if the injury occurred while celebrating a victory), and you deserve that recognition.
4. Do you have a history of starting new things and then immediately quitting them? Yes? Perfect. This tip is for you. Start thinking about different hobbies you can get involved in. Buy a cheap ukulele online, and then stop playing it within a week because you can't figure out how to tune it. Sure, you'll be disappointed that you can't play the ukulele within a week of buying it, but don't forget that you now own a ukulele. You are music.
5. If your coaches are anything like mine, they won't stop yelling at you about cheering your teammates on. Make this personal. Become the head cheerleader you never were. See if you can yell loudly and often enough that they actually request you cheer less. That'll show 'em.

A History of Saving Land on the West Side of SF Bay
A History of Saving Land on the West Side of SF Bay
for pdf with pictures and map
excerpt of Story from March of 2008--
The Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District will enter a new era April 14, when Stephen Abbors takes over as its third general manager. Mr. Abbors, a trained biologist who has managed 28,000 acres of watershed lands for the East Bay Municipal Utility District, will increasingly focus on managing the nearly 56,000 acres the open space district already owns, as well as acquiring new land for open space....
Around 1970, a group of environmentalists centered in Palo Alto began looking for a way to avoid the constant battles over development: buy the land — or "fee simple," as Wallace Stegner said. They planned a government agency, similar to the East Bay Regional Park District, that
could levy taxes, buy land, and manage it for open space and public recreation.
In 1972, voters in northern Santa Clara County formed what is now the Midpeninsula
Regional Open Space District. In 1976, voters in San Mateo County, from San Carlos south, voted to join the district....
Also in 1977, the district initiated the formation of POST, a private, nonprofit land trust that could raise private money, purchase and manage land, and operate with a lot more privacy and flexibility than a government agency....

Designed for Hard Woods
Only a well designed screw could drive into hard woods such as oak or cherry without having to predrill! POZISQUARE interior screws have a type 17 cutting point so that it drills while it drives. The patented POZISQUARE recess allows for the more torque needed to drive into these hard woods.
Stronger – more steel was left under the head of the screw. This means it is no longer the weak point of the screw.
Zinc Yellow Dichromate Finish – more corrosion resistance than plain zinc but not recommended for outdoors.
Interior Screw Kit – The Pozisquare Interior screw kit is perfect for every household. It comes with an assortment of flat head screws, pan head screws, a Pozisquare driver bit, a Square driver bit, and even a 3" Pozisquare Screwdriver in a divided plastic box for storing.
Pan Head or Flat Head style – depending on your application and preference POZISQUARE interior screws are available with both head styles. The Flat Head style has cutting ribs under the head which aids in seating flush to the wood.
ACR stands for Anti Camout recess. There are ribs on the driver bit that engage in the patented recess to reduce stripping, provide increased torque, enhance off-angle drivability and offers a stick fit that makes screw driving easier. Pozisquare screws can be driven with a standard square driver bit included in the Interior screw box. However for the features of the patented ACR system, we recommend the Pozisquare driver bit that is also included.

If you missed the first instalment of this three-part floral series then it's a definite must-read and you can find it here. I urge you to take a peek if you want to learn all about wedding flower budgets! It's an eye-opening piece and one I wished I had read when planning my own floral story.
Jay Archer is the author of this series and she's beyond incredible in so many ways. Honest, creative and just a little bit magic, I had the pleasure of working with this lady at Pynes House last month on our latest editorial and it was such a joy witnessing this floral genius in action. What Jay doesn't know about flowers probably isn't worth knowing!
But what is worth knowing is today's meaty topic – seasonality. What do the seasons actually mean to florists and how will this influence your choice as a bride…? Read on to find out, oh and don't forget to pin the relevant seasonal bookmarks so you can return at a later planning date.
Notes from Jay Archer Floral Design
Seasonal does not mean British grown or local, nor does it mean cheaper. That is the biggest misconception when it comes to wedding flowers – all flowers I suppose.
Using seasonal quite simply means something is in 'season' – it is at it's best now. English grown roses, for example, are at their best June – September whilst Peonies thrive in May – early July.
You can get most flowers out of season nowadays; Norway grows and stores peonies in snow but they definitely won't look their best! These flowers will be poorer quality and probably won't smell quite as beautiful. It's like strawberries at Christmas which are often grown in Peru or Spain – they cost more and just don't taste like a sweet, sticky, delicious strawberry so why would you..?!
Being clever with your budget means you can watch the pennies and have seasonal produce at the same time. If you love roses but cannot afford to use them throughout your scheme (at £3 per stem and up to £5 for David Austin's) then consider using these in just your bridal bouquet.
Before seeing your florist, you need to work out what's important to you. Write a list of your must-haves and nice-to-haves, work with the seasons and ensure your floral ideas are complimentary to their natural surroundings and the choice of wedding venue. Being clear about your budget will mean your florist will recommend the right flowers for you.
British flowers are generally sold in smaller 'wraps' or individual stems, so if your florist doesn't use British grown then this might mean they'll be buying your flowers in bulk. Imports can come in 'wraps' of of up to 50, for example ranunuculus and anemones are always sold in large quantities so this will have an impact on your budget as you will need to pay for the full 'wraps' rather than just one or two stems.
Buying flowers in bulk can be cost effective when they're in season – Spring bulbs, autumn foliage, aummer cornflowers/scabious, winter branches and amaryllis are all good, purse friendly options. So have a chat with your florist and make sure you're armed with all the questions you might want to ask.
So, what's is in season when..?
Ah, Spring – the most scented month! Think striking little spears of pale blue and ice white muscari, multi-tonal almost pearlescent hellebore and the tiny nodding heady scented bells of lily of the valley! This particular specimen is one of the most desirable wedding flowers and available all year from a chap in Holland at about £2 per stem!
Also in Spring:
- Blossom – apple, quince, cherry, magnolia, prunus, spirea and others.
- Tulips – French tulips are a real treat, with their long stems and peachy heads. Parrot tulips and English tulips are available in every colour you can imagine!
- Wallflowers – available from local growers only usually. Their petals have the most amazing colour variations which remind me of a Turner sky!
- Ranunculus – peonies are not quite about yet so ranunculus are the next best thing and beautiful in their own right.
- Anemones – the much-desired navy eyed variety are more expensive than their white centred counterparts. I think the white ones are pure and classic.
- Narcissi and paper whites – The scent of these little flowery fireworks is quite something! Strong and heady, they can be overwhelming when used in table centres but good for bouquets.
- Forget-me-nots – tiny, delicate dots of sky blue. Dreamy.
- Fritillaries – beautiful little nodding heads of dusky purple with a chequered pattern.
Working to a palette of pastel pinks, creamy whites, vintage dusky pinks and soft blues, I'd suggest mixing spring flowers with catkins, twigs and senecio foliage.
Peony season! The ones they all go mad for!
Summer is bright, bold and energetic, lots of people marry in outdoor ceremonies and marquees so think about colour. White flowers look great on the day but may not show up in your photographs at all. Using a base of beech, birch and hazel think jewel tones of pinks, deep midnight blue and oranges.
Delphiniums and roses are at their best now, along with:
- Stocks – scented spears of lilac, purple, pink, fuchsia, white or nude peach.
- Foxgloves – now available in peach, blush and violet.
- Sweet peas – an English garden classic.
- Flowering herbs such as mint, rosemary, bay and sage. Mixing these with your arrangements adds to the multi-sensory experience and frankly, are delicious. And could tie in with your cocktails..?
- Campanula – pretty bells of white and lilac.
- Snapdragons – bright and bold! Do you remember playing with them as kids..?
- Scabious and zinnia – other cottage garden favourites.
Using accent colours of gold or champagne works well with bold summer tones, or keep it simple with pretty cut glass. Late summer sees hops become available which are great for dressing big spaces as they come on 3 metre vines and average about £35 – £50 (when the florist has added delivery/ labour etc.)
Autumn is hands down my absolute favourite season – to be in, to work with and create for!
It's a great month for colour and if you're on a budget you can cut back on flowers and use the readily available foliages all around. Berries, fruiting branches and dahlias come into their own this time of year and bloom (larger headed) chrysanthemums are to die for:
- Viburnum berry – a steely blue hard berry, with dark green foliage. Cute in buttonholes.
- Blackberries, sloe and apples – arching, great branches of laden fruit is luxurious and typically English.
- Hydrangea – available throughout the summer, they're at their best now, especially the English ones. In a range of colours, the pink and deep reds are ever popular with brides and the natural foliage is a winner.
- Roses – soft English rose bushes have a second flush around September/early October and can be great additions to bud vases and bouquets alike.
- Spindleberry, albeia and pheasants bush – there are some beautiful fruiting and flowering shrubs around at this time.
- Gourds and squashes – what's not to love..?!
Working with your florist to create foliage-only displays means you get the best of the season, which is easy on the purse too! Red, gold and coppers are all classic autumn colours but you could opt for a modern twist with wine, puce and blush pinks with the natural golden tones of dried grasses.
Clients are often concerned there's not a lot about at this time, but there is! Although not English, most of the spring flowers are available at market with ranunculus, anemones and tulips – all firm florist favourites.
- Amaryllis – huge, majestic heads of velvety lushness in deepest reds to palest pink.
- Flowering viburnum – the berries are available too.
- White heather – again, there are some beautifully unusual shrubs around at this time, both English and imported.
- Euphorbia – available in peach, salmon, red, pink, orange, yellow and white.
- Skimmer – dainty dark red berries with glossy dark green leaves.
- Genista – scented blossom.
- Wax flower – a great alternative to gypsophilia.
- Brassica – ornamental cabbages!
- Hypericum berry – winter is all about texture, and mixing these colourful little pops to bouquets and buttonholes works really well.
Whatever you do in winter, add candles! Warming up all those textures with soft candlelight is the way forward. Long dining tables work well at this time of year and dressing the space with moss and buried candlesticks is a quirky and original touch. Dark reds and winter whites work well as this time.
So, to recap; Seasonal doesn't always mean cheaper! Whatever the season, there are colours for you – essentially you can get any colour at any time, but working with the season gives you a greater selection.
Look out for the final part when we go back into the JAFD Flower School with Katrina Otter Weddings & Hannah Duffy Photography for a spot of bouquet and button-hole making!
Lots of love…

Problem: What problem is this initiative trying to address?There are significant food security challenges in public hospitals in Rwanda and across the region. The Rwandan government provides healthcare to the most vulnerable and poorest portion of the population. Once admitted many of these in-patients do not have funds to buy meals or family to bring regular meals to them. Nutritional and well-balanced meals are a key component required to aid the healing process. Many children, women and men are suffering from malnutrition due to lack of access to regular healthy meals.
Solution Summary: What is the proposed solution? What do you see as its most promising aspects for creating shared value?We are currently building Rwanda's first industrial kitchen that will cater to vulnerable patients in public hospitals. The professional kitchen will be completed on 30 March 2018 and will have the capacity to produce 15,000 meals/day and will feed over 1,000 patients 3 meals/day. We will supply the 5 main public hospitals in Kigali. This unique solution is new to Rwanda and the intention is to replicate a sustainable social enterprise throughout the country, the region and continent that will provide a solution to this widespread issue. In order to make this project viable, the kitchen will use the profits generated from providing professional catering services to several organizations, including a teaching university and other public organizations that have shown interest in meal delivery, primarily for lunchtime. A large scale service like this one will fill a gap and respond to a Kigali's catering market need. The model is based on generating 3 free meals for every 2 meals sold.
Impact: What is the impact of the work to date? Specify both the social and the environmental impact of your workWe have been feeding 300 patients daily from 2010 - 2014. Since 2014, we have been feeding 400 patients everyday. We have also installed water purification systems at 3 hospitals that has the capacity to produce 2,000 litres every 3 hours, providing free clean drinking water to thousands of patients and families a day. In addition to our Gemura program, which provides food for vulnerable patients we have added value to our services by supporting with medical bills and hospital expenses that many patients just cannot afford to pay. In addition we help patients with transportation home. We also provide hygiene materials. Although our primary focus is meeting the nutritional needs, the combined elements of our programs all contribute to aiding an improved healing process for vulnerable patients. To increase our environmental impact, we are building a green kitchen using solar panels to heat water and to power the kitchen, low carbon footprint bricks, water and garbage recycling.
Financial sustainability plan: How is this initiative financially supported? How will you ensure its financial sustainability long-term?In 2016 Solid'Africa raised: Private Donations 42%, Donations-in-Kind (& own farming produce) 46%, Member Contributions 8%, Fundraising 4%. The funds to build the kitchen donated by Imbuto Foundation, has allow us to construct and equip the kitchen. The surplus production will go towards providing 3 meals/day free to patients across public hospitals, with a capacity to feed a min of 1,000 patients/day. This initiative will support itself & its beneficiaries through sales. We estimate that by year 2 we will breakeven & in year 3 (profit) we will scale up to other districts public hospitals. Lack of start funds can impact negatively our objectives, & we could only deliver on a artisanal level, and not exploit fully the infrastructure and equipments available.
Unique value proposition: What makes your initiative innovative? How does your project differ from other organizations working in the same field?This is 100% unique to Rwanda. Since 2010, we have been the only organization focusing on nutrition for vulnerable patients in hospitals. No other group is providing meals to the number of patients that we reach on a daily basis, with the exception of informal groups/volunteers. Economy of scale: We have sales competitive advantage on the local catering market as we are buying and cooking in bulk, from our own farm's produce and using a professional industrial kitchen with a good mission.
Founding story: Share a story about the "Aha!" moment that sparked the beginning of this initiative.We have been feeding patients from a domestic kitchen since 2010. It is artisanal hard work and not very efficient. In 2012 we were brainstorming about taking our initiative to the next level. We realized that being too dependent on donations and fundraising was time consuming and unreliable. Our primary goal was always to become self sustainable so that we could reach more patients in more districts. Then the idea struck us! Why can't we build and manage our own Industrial Kitchen as a social enterprise. By generating our own income, we expand to feed more patients in need. After doing more research we discovered that this issue is recurring across the continent. That is when we realized that our solution has potential to create positive impact and scalable. This initiative will serve our beneficiaries in hospitals while providing affordable and healthy meals to workforce in Kigali.

Your Feedback has Profound Value
We eat, sleep, and breathe UVP. We know what programs look like on the ground and the names of all the VHTs. We see the same faces when we go to the village and we have relationships with staff members at all the local health centers and the Iganga District offices. We're embracing UVP all the time, so there are things we take for granted, things we intrinsically know because of our intimacy with the work. It's called the curse of knowledge – once you learn something, it's hard to remember how it feels to not know.
The survey that many of you took last month helped to illuminate ways we could talk out the work of UVP, the work you support, to promote better understanding of what exactly is going on in villages in Iganga. Here's a couple tidbits we received from you.
Yes, you got all the questions right! If you ticked the box indicating that trachoma education is one of UVP's programs, that tells us that we need to do a better job at highlighting program changes (we used to implement trachoma awareness programming, but began focusing on our other programs in 2009).
Most respondents to the survey know that UVP provides education in clean water (83%) and sanitation & hygiene (77%) and clean water access (75%). What surprised us is that most people don't know that, in addition to malaria education, we provide malaria testing and treatment (only 35% knew this). And while many people (68%) know UVP provides HIV education, less than half (47%) know that HIV testing and counseling coincide with that education.
We learned that the term 'public health' is ambiguous and broad – it can mean many different things to many different people. The largest majority of people categorized it as required, useful, or necessary (23%), followed by a community concern (17%), and finally as general health or non-descript health terms (15%). We could do a better job at painting a picture of what public health means, particularly in rural Ugandan villages.
We also learned that it is difficult to determine what UVP is directly responsible for due to our close ties with other organizations. So, our job is to better communicate those things to you! While we're making adjustments in our communication, feel free to reach out to us if there is something that you really like, something you learned, or even something that left a bad taste in your mouth (something you didn't like). Please be gentle, we really do take your comments to heart!
And finally, a heartfelt thank you! Because you took the time to provide us with your input, we can provide better education about what public health looks like and the real impacts it has to rural communities in Iganga.

Darien Police arrest New York, New Jersey residents for allegedly passing counterfeit bills
On Saturday, March 2, at approximately 6:45 p.m. the Darien Police Department received a report that a subject was attempting to purchase merchandise with counterfeit currency at Pet Valu , at 25 Old Kings Highway in Darien. North. Upon arrival it was determined that the suspect had fled the area.
Through investigation, officers determined that one suspect successfully passed a counterfeit $100 bill at Pet Valu, and two other suspects unsuccessfully tried to pass bills at nearby Chocolate Works and Wine Port of Darien.
The bill used at Pet Valu and a $100 bill left behind at Chocolate Works had matching serial numbers which confirmed they were counterfeit. Based on descriptions of the suspects provided by store employees and an off-duty Stamford police sergeant who observed the vehicle, a regional broadcast was given to surrounding law enforcement agencies.
At approximately 10 p.m., Darien Police were notified by the Fairfield Police Department that they had located and stopped a vehicle matching the description of the suspect's vehicle in our earlier incidents. The vehicle was stopped in Westport.
Darien officers responded to the scene and said they were able to positively identify three of the four occupants of the vehicle as the suspects from the earlier counterfeiting incidents in Darien. They were identified as Destiny Poole, 20, Shelton Petit–Brun, 27, and Dayvon Jordan, 24, of New York, New York. The fourth occupant was identified as Raquan Hicks, 23 of Newark, New Jersey. Darien Police said they determined Hicks was also involved in the incidents in Darien. All four subjects were placed under arrest.
Their vehicle, a 2018 Chevy Malibu bearing Georgia Registration CHA7242, was searched and Darien Police saidd numerous pieces of evidence were seized connecting them to the Darien incidents as well as incidents in other jurisdictions. The vehicle had been rented by Petit-Brun and was subsequently towed from the scene. All four suspects were transported back to the Darien Police Department for processing. During subsequent searches of the suspects, Darien Police said additional counterfeit currency was located. In all, $3,300 in counterfeit one hundred dollar bills with the same serial number were recovered in this incident.
Poole, Petit-Brun and Jordan were charged with three counts of first degree forgery, one count of sixth degree larceny, three counts of first degree conspiracy to forgery, and two counts of sixth degree conspiracy to larceny.
Poole was held on $50,000 bond. Petit-Brun and Jordan were held on $35,000 bond.
Hicks was charged with one count of first degree forgery, three counts of conspiracy to commit forgery in the first degree, and three counts of conspiracy to commit larceny in the sixth degree.
He was held on $35,000 bond.
Darien Police said Poole had an active arrest warrant from the Fairfield Police Department for failure to appear in the first degree. She was also charged for this and an additional $25,000 was added to her bond totaling $75,000. All four of the subjects remained in the custody in the Darien Police Department and will be arraigned later Monday at Stamford Superior Court.

At the same time, since it is . . . a profession, research, the discovery of new knowledge, the testing out of such knowledge, and the construction of a scientific base for practice, must form the other cornerstone." – Dean Marlene Kramer (1981).
What UConn School of Nursing's third dean, Marlene Kramer, foresaw 35 years ago was that students' education in evidence-based practice would be built upon the School's robust research activities. That vision has become a reality today in the School's cadre of interdisciplinary and inter-professional researchers and scholars and in its two centers of research excellence.
A decade after the School's founding in 1942, the inaugural issue of a new journal, Nursing Research, announced that: Working closely with the medical profession and the social scientists, nurses are in a fortunate position to conduct research. The methods of both the physical and social sciences can be utilized as we seek for improved practice and for increased understanding of the health needs of society.
Today, the School's Center for Advancement in Managing Pain (CAMP), directed by nurse researcher Professor Angela Starkweather, includes interdisciplinary colleagues, Assistant Professor Kyle Baumbauer, PhD, a pain physiologist, and Assistant Professor Erin Young, PhD, a pain geneticist.
The School has long welcomed non-nurse scientists like Baumbauer and Young who bring their expertise to students and colleagues in the School and throughout the University.
Educated in psychology, sociology, and experimental psychology at the University of Central Florida and Kent State University, Baumbauer is also jointly appointed in the UConn Health Department of Neuroscience, a member of the Institute for Systems Genomics, and an affiliate in the Center for Health, Intervention, and Prevention. A focus of his work has been spinal cord injury. He is currently a co-investigator in a research study of lower back pain sensitivity (funded by the National Institute of Nursing Research), the establishment of the Center of Excellence in Pain Education (CoEPE, designated by the National Institutes of Health), and animal studies. He is principal investigator on a study of the functional consequences of spinal cord injury on cutaneous nociceptors (funded by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke).
Educated in biology, physics, neuroscience, and experimental biological psychology at Wesleyan College and Kent State University, Young is jointly appointed in the UConn School of Medicine's Department of Genetics and Genome Sciences. Previously she held research positions in the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine's Department of Anesthesiology and in Behavioral and Cellular Neuroscience at Texas A&M University.
A focus of her work has been bowel pain. She is co-investigator on several research studies with the School of Nursing's senior research faculty or as a mentor for doctoral students: a study of bio-genomic markers for management of neonatal abstinence syndrome (funded by an InCHIP Seed Grant), another of pain sensitivity in lower back pain (funded by the National Institute of Nursing Research), the CoEPE startup, a Center in Self-Management in Symptoms project (funded by the National Institute of Nursing Research), and doctoral students' studies funded by Sigma Theta Tau International's Mu Chapter, the National Association of Neonatal Nurses, and the Foundation for Neonatal Research and Education.
Working in collaboration with nurse faculty members, Baumbauer and Young have developed a 12-credit hour online graduate certificate program that will provide an interprofessional learning opportunity for nurses, physicians, and other health professionals. The Pain Management certificate meshes scholarly work with practice in an engaging 4-course program incorporating top UConn pain management researchers and educators.
Baumbauer and Young have also collaborated on several studies and articles, each leveraging their distinctive expertise in the physiological and genetic foundations of pain bringing their discoveries to the School of Nursing. Learn more about CAMP

Shigeru Ban's paper church.
"This community center was built by church volunteers whose house of worship was destroyed by the Kobe earthquake in 1995. Materials were donated by a number of companies, and construction was completed in only five weeks by the 160 volunteers. The plan(10 x 15m) is enclosed within a skin of corrugated, polycarbonate sheeting. Within this, 58 paper tubes (325mm in diameter, 14.8mm thick, and 5m high), were placed in an elliptical pattern. The eclipse is based on those in Bernini's church designs, and the space between the eclipse and the outer edge of rectangular-shaped site formed a corridor and provided lateral support. At the entrance to the eclipse, the spacing of the paper tubes was widened, and the facade fully glazed to form a continuous, unified space between the interior and exterior."
So beautiful I could cry, and out of paper. More innovation in those simple tubes than in all the churches below.

The discussion around gun violence in the wake of the shootings that killed 17 at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida last week has taken an odd turn thanks to a former NFL player.
Jonathan Martin, the former offensive lineman for the Miami Dolphins (who also played for San Francisco 49ers and was briefly a member of the Carolina Panthers) who was at the center of the investigation into the bullying, harassment and other inappropriate workplace behavior he faced from Richie Incognito and other teammates, posted a photo of a gun on Instagram with a disturbing caption that mentioned revenge.
This led to his high school being shut down and to him being taken into police custody.
BREAKING: @ABC confirms: Former Dolphins OL Jonathan Martin has been taken into custody
— Matt Stone (@MattStoneABC) February 23, 2018
The post in question tagged Incognito as well as former Dolphins' teammate Mike Pouncey (also implicated in that bullying scandal), and former high school classmates James Dunleavy (son of Mike Dunleavy, brother of Mike Jr., he went on to play for USC) and T.J. Taylor, plus #MiamiDolphins and #HarvardWestlake (the high school Martin attended in Southern California with Dunleavy and Taylor) written on the gun. This led to Harvard-Westlake shutting down for the day Friday over the threat.
Here's the post from Martin's Instagram (which is verified, although it's now set to private):
Jonathan Martin with some seriously disturbing stuff here… pic.twitter.com/mbFf4jGPQG
— 12up (@12upSport) February 23, 2018
Here's the Harvard-Westlake statement on the issue from the KTLA story on the school closing, which doesn't specifically identify Martin, but seems to match the details here:
Last evening, we learned of an Internet post that mentions Harvard-Westlake by name. Out of an abundance of caution, and because the safety of our students, faculty, and staff is our top priority, we made the decision to close school today. We are working closely with law enforcement and will share more information when we are able.
This is definitely troubling and problematic. We'll see what further developments happen here.

On your television set since 1997
With over 20 years of experience producing football content under their belt, Daryl Pitman alongside Kevin Murphy, Ian Bennett, Wayne Steele and Terry O'Callaghan are some of C31's most well-recognised figures and have been continuing to kick goals throughout the stations digital transition over the past six years.
Starting out as the Southern Footy Show, Daryl Pitman and his team of loyal football fanatics bridged the gap between the local football leagues (originally focusing on the Southern Football Netball League) and the wider Melbourne and Geelong region, bringing in new recruits and viewers invested in the state of grassroots football and media.
But the Southern Footy Show wasn't always a television program. Originally starting out on Southern FM, Daryl and the team were pioneers in technical ingenuity and problem solving, delivering a weekly news and commentary program on the SFNL, often working in less than ideal environments to put their show together.
In an interview with the SFNL, Daryl recalled bribing local homeowners with bottles of wine in exchange for access to their telephone line during the game, as not many football clubs had access to a telephone on the field.
He also recalls a time he and his team were perched in a box on top of a scaffold, with water up to their ankles and electrical cables running everywhere.
"We did it under some really testing and challenging conditions" notes Daryl.
This dedication to their craft continued into 1997, where Daryl and Southern Footy Show team transitioned their two-year strong radio show into a television program broadcast throughout the Melbourne and Geelong region on Channel 31.
Fast forward eleven years, and Daryl and the team expanded their horizons yet again towards the entire Victorian football scene, completing the process by rebranding their now ground-breaking program to The Local Footy Show.
Focused on shining a light on news and stories surrounding the game they love so much; The Local Footy Show team aims to share their passion for the game and highlight the value that it offers our local communities.
Daryl fondly remembers the groups trip to Woori Yallock to cover the Yarra Valley Mountain District Football League's grand final in 2009. In an interview with the North West Leader, he discusses the uncertainty around the participating teams due to the Black Saturday bushfires that had burnt through Kinglake and the surrounding areas only a few months prior.
"That was the year of the bushfires that wiped out Kinglake and they didn't know whether they were going to have a footy team."
Despite this tremendous setback, the Kinglake Football Club managed to pull together a full team to play in the grand final, coming away the runner up but attracting a notable crowd of dignitaries and A-listers dedicated to supporting the communities that had been hit hardest by the natural disaster.
In the background of all the fanfare? Kevin Murphy, Wayne Steele, Daryl Pitman, Ian Bennett and Terry O'Callaghan were producing coverage of the event, sharing the stories of the local final that may have never reached outside of the Yarra Valley area without their assistance.
Now in 2018, The Local Footy Show team continues to make their digital transition alongside Channel 31, building their digital presence and hosting regular livestreams, providing digital exclusive content to local football enthusiasts and offering a platform for viewers to ask questions about the game the team have been a part of for so long.
"The Local Footy Show team are a collection of dedicated individuals who will go to great lengths to highlight the importance of local communities, and as such perfectly aligns with the values that C31 Melbourne works to uphold every day" said Channel 31's Digital Manager, Mitchell Kalika.
"The Local Footy Show offers a much needed platform for Victoria's vibrant local sporting community, sharing the thousands of stories and events happening every day that are often drowned out in mainstream media.
Channel 31 looks forward to continuing our relationship with The Local Footy Show team for another 20 years to come, whether that be as a digital-only provider or on free-to-air television for the Melbourne and Geelong regions."
The Local Footy Show airs on Fridays at 7pm on Channel 31 (Digital 44).

New Songs From Edward Sharpe
Hippie-folk group Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros have given us two sneak peeks of their upcoming sophomore album, Here, due out May 29th. These songs indicate that the new release will be more concise, and slightly less jam-focused than their debut album, Up From Below. Regardless, they sound as chill as ever! So take a listen and see if you like the direction they're heading in. Also, the group has announced that they recorded so much material for Here, that they will be releasing another album in 2012! Together, the albums supposedly sum up their band members' lives at the moment. Sounds good to me!
"That's What's Up"

The Original Naked Palette: Did it age well?
Good Value for your Money
Redundant Color Selection
Final Thoughts
13 Comments
What? Oh, I still love it as much as I did. But using it only here and there due to growing collection 🙂
It's my first precious <3
I love my first naked pallet, it was my 2nd pallet I ever bought and I so glad I did. I love how it has a great color selection and all these shades, are right up my ally and don't think I've not used one of the 12 shades. Think as a first starter pallet it's great because you can do so much with it, not just that they have great shades you can mix and match with also. This was a great little post !!

Well I've never had the 1st NAKED Palette so I can't answer your question, but I got the 3rd NAKED Palette almost 3 years ago and it is still used by myself from time to time, it suits more my skin type (too pale for the 1st and 2nd NAKED palette). I remember I was thinking about the 1&2 NAKED palette while I was buying the 3rd but I'm glad I made the decision and bought the 3rd, as it contains so gorgeous rose gold/bronze shades, perfect for green/blue or even dark eyed girls;)
I love my Naked Palettes but must admit for the higher price point I've used better! Morphe is definitely a new favourite of mine and the prices make it that more dreamy! xx
It's always refreshing hearing someone's take on a very famous and popular palette! I wanted it just as badly as everyone else before when it first came out but it sold out so quickly in singapore and we only had 1 sephora here back then so I never got it. I've since had so many chances to pick this bad boy up but I've just never gotten around to it. To this day I look at it and go "I really only like those 4 shades" and the same goes for the naked basics palettes. I still think it's a good investment for those who literally only stick to one neutral palette for everyday but I'm not like that and I love having lots of variety :p
I didn't really get into makeup until a few years after the Naked Palette was out, in fact one of my early memories of really being into the beauty blogging world and paying attention to new releases was when the Naked 3 palette came out, which, after a quick google, was the end of 2013.
I ended up buying the Naked 1 and 2 palettes just because they seem like the kind of palettes you have to own and it's just assumed that everyone has them. But I've never been in love with either of them because I missed the initial hype and bought them because I felt like I had to rather than because they really caught my eye which is the only reason I'd buy a palette these days.
I think my biggest criticism of them is that they only have 2 matte shades. I find my most reached for palettes tend to have a bunch of mattes in the mix. I'm always going to need at least a bone colour to set my primer and about 3 different mattes for my crease so when a palette has 10 shimmers and 2 mattes I'm not overly impressed and I probably wouldn't buy a palette like that these days unless I was super duper in love with it.
Do you have a dupe for half baked? I know that they have it as a single, but maybe you have a cheaper alternative haha.
Even though I don't use it as much I still love it, it was my first ever eyeshadow palette and I think we can attribute the amount of neutral palettes available to it's success.
CEL // STAYGILDED Ctrl +
The lengths I went to get this palette before it was released in the UK – stupid lmao. I didn't even notice that they've raised the price!! Couldn't tell you the last time I reached for it or even what drawer it's in!? xo

Almost a year has passed since my parents and I decided on taking this trip to Asia. It was at Thanksgiving Dinner last year, that I broke the news to my parents that I would be paying for Business Class Seats for this trip. The last time I flew in premium cabin was when I was in 5th grade. Delta Airlines messed up and gave our seats away even though we had confirmed seat assignments. That flight, which was to Honolulu from Los Angeles, was completely full in Economy Class and at the very last minute, we were given boarding passes for the last four First Class seats aboard the L1011 Aircraft. That was the first and last time I have traveled in anything other than Economy Class when flying until today.
My plan was simple. I wanted to arrive at the airport early so I could get my moneys worth out of the free flowing alcohol from the new Star Alliance Lounge at Los Angeles International Airport. My early arrival plan was dashed by the ever present nasty traffic on the 405 freeway. My parents and I parked our car at Van Nuys FlyAway Terminal and caught the FlyAway Bus to LAX. The traffic to LAX from the Valley was at a crawl this morning. I wanted to arrive at LAX 3.5 hours before flight time to maximize our time inside the new Star Alliance Lounge, but by the time we arrived at Asiana Airlines checkin counter, we had about 2 hours until boarding. After passing through security and finally arriving at the lounge, we had about 1.5 hours left before boarding time.
After the long crawl on the 405 freeway, our FlyAway bus finally dropped us off at Tom Bradley International Terminal. We found the correct checkin aisle that Asiana Airlines is located via the information display and walked to the correct aisle to checkin for our flight. We entered the Business Class checkin line and waited for our turn at the counter. It did not take long before we were waved up to the counter, where we were greeted by a friendly agent before asking to see our passports. My mom, when she booked our flight, already made seat assignments for us, which the checkin agent confirmed and showed us where the seats were located on a map of Asiana Airlines Airbus A380 aircraft. Once we confirmed that we were ok with the seats, we were given our boarding passes along with the baggage claim check plus instructions on how to get to the Star Alliance Lounge. We thanked the agent and headed directly for security check.
Security check entrance was right next to the Asiana Airlines checkin counter. We got in line to have our boarding passes and ID verified by a TSA Agent who was literally falling asleep at the podium. While the line at the entrance to security looked short, inside where the actual security screening was being performed was hectic and busy. Many passengers still to this day, seemed quite confused with the security screening process which created a ripple effect on other passengers. Once the three of us were through the cluster F&*k screening process, we headed directly to the Star Alliance Lounge.
At the entrance to the Star Alliance Lounge, our boarding passes were scanned by an employee manning the podium at the entrance to the lounge. Once inside the Star Alliance Lounge, we tried to find a place to sit together, but many of the seats were occupied by single travelers so group seating was not available for the three of us to sit together. We did find space at the hightop table seating available near the buffet food station which we occupied until it was time to head out to the gate for boarding.
Since we skipped breakfast this morning to eat in the lounge, the three of us were starving by this point. We each took turns looking after our belongings while the other went to the food stations to get something to eat. I made myself a plate from the items at the buffet and also poured myself a glass of champagne to wash everything down. At the Star Alliance Lounge, there is also a noodle station where one can make themselves a bowl of noodle soup. All of the ingredients are setup buffet style for one to create their own bowl of noodle soup as they wish. My parents both had the noodle soup but I passed on it. There are also instant Spicy Korean Ramen cups in the lounge for anyone who wanted to eat them, located near the bar. Beer, wine, and liquor were available as self serve but a full service bar with a bartender is also available in the Star Alliance Lounge.
Once I was finished with my plate, I left my parents to look after our stuff while I went around the lounge taking pictures. The Star Alliance Lounge has a outdoor seating area with a modern waterfall decoration and a view of the aircrafts at Terminal 3. I was the only passenger in the outside lounge area. The more popular place seemed to be the indoor terrace which has a bar and a view of the new Tom Bradley International Terminal. While the lounge was not crowded, all of the seating area were occupied by single travelers making it awkward for bigger groups to sit together.
The bar had a sign with a picture of a Mojito, explaining that it was their special cocktail being served. My mom liked how the mojito looked so she wanted to try one. I ordered couple of Mojito's which were prepared with lots of REAL mint muddled in the glass to release the mint aroma and flavor into the cocktail. Many bars screw up Mojitos either by not using real mint or by not muddling the mint if they are used. My mom, who normally does not drink, really enjoyed the mojito that the Star Alliance Lounge Bartender prepared for her.
Just as our Mojito cocktails arrived, the Asiana Airlines staff member came through the lounge carrying a sign and announcing that OZ 201 would be boarding. Since we still had plenty of time, we stayed longer in the lounge to enjoy our Mojitos without rushing. Around this time, the Star Alliance Lounge staff members were changing out the breakfast items for lunch items at the buffet. My mom decided to taste some of the lunch items and made herself a plate. I did not eat anything from the lunch items but did take pictures of the new items. Even though my original plan was to get sloshed on the booze and get my moneys worth before boarding, I only ended but having about three drinks including the Mojito.
Once we were finished with our Mojitos we packed up our stuff and headed downstairs to gate 148 for boarding. Lucky for us, gate 148 was right around the corner after getting off of the elevator. At the gate area, passengers were already lined up to board. The Business/First Class line was long and stretched way back as can be seen in the picture above. While we were waiting in the long boarding line for Business Class, I took some pictures of the new Tom Bradley International Terminal building. The new terminal is very airy with lots of natural lights. There are plenty of dining options and lots of high end stores. The last time I came through TBIT, the old terminal building was still in use.
Our Asiana Airlines flight, was being codeshared with United Airlines and Copa Airlines of Panama, and Singapore Airlines. We finally arrived at the position where a airport employee checks ones boarding pass against ones passport, before proceeding to the podium where your boarding pass is scanned and the larger portion collected by a Asiana Airlines employee. Once all three of us had our boarding passes collected, we headed up the escalators to board through the second level which is where Business Class is located.
Asiana Airlines Airbus A380's have both Business Class and Travel Class, on the second floor and First Class and Travel Class on first floor of the aircraft. Asiana Airlines calls their Economy Class cabin Travel Class. The second floor Travel Class cabin takes up about 1/3 of the rear of the aircraft and the Smartium Business Class the rest of the space. We walked down the upper level jet bridge to to aircraft door where we were greeted by a Asiana Airlines Flight Attendant. The flight attendant checked everyones boarding passes and directed them to the correct aisle where their seat was located.
Once I arrived at my seat, I snapped couple of pictures before sitting in it. I took a moment as I was sitting down to savor the moment. This was a special event in my life. Not only was it the first time I was flying Business Class long distance but I also bought the ticket for the seat with my money. No miles or points were used for this trip! Shortly after I was seated, flight attendants came by with pre departure beverages on a tray. I selected a orange juice which was placed on my side table along with a coaster. At the seat, headphones and slippers were already placed in front of the magazine storage. Just before aircraft doors were closed, flight attendants came through the cabin with amenity kits and bottled water.
Before the inflight safety video was played, all of the flight attendants stood in the aisles, bowed and walked down the aisle thanking each passengers for flying Asiana Airlines today. I thought this was a nice touch to begin a 13+ hour flight to ICN. Our flight was also running on time which was a relief for the three of us. We only had about one hour to connect at ICN for our flight to Bangkok Thailand. Once the safety video was completed, menus and wine lists were distributed. I read over both the Western and Korean lunch options and decided to go with the Western option.
While we were taxing to the runway, I took the obligatory legroom shot for anyone flying in Business or First Class. Our Airbus A380 taxied to the northern runways and after couple planes ahead of us departed, it was our turn to enter the runway. Once in position, we started rolling down the runway. One thing that I immediately noticed was how quiet the engines were. Normally on a 747 400, you knew from the sound that the engines were powering up, but on our A380, powering up sounded more like a hum.
After powering down the runway, our Airbus A380 was wheels up and flying over the Pacific Ocean. We had another aircraft simultaneously taking off from the southern runway. Once we were both in the air, the other aircraft veered south. I was not able to get a clear view of the aircraft type or the airline that simultaneously took off with us from LAX.
Once the 10,000 ft. chime went off, the flight attendants jumped into action. An announcement was made by the purser explaining the inflight service plan. The curtains between Business Class and Travel Class was closed and the flight attendants changed into their aprons. At this time, I visited the bathroom, while it was still fresh and clean to take pictures. There was a window letting in natural light which made the bathroom feel much warmer and friendlier than the typical harsh artificial lighting. The floor was wood and the faucet was automated. The bathroom was twice the size of typical aircraft bathrooms.
When I returned to my seat, flight attendants had already started going down the aisles taking lunch and drink orders. While waiting for the flight attendant to arrive at my seat, I took out the contents of the L'Occitane amenity kit for pictures. Except for the small bottle of lotion, none of the other items in the kit was from L'Occitane.
When it was my turn to order lunch, the flight attendant knelt down so she was eye level with me before taking my lunch and drink order. While I do appreciate the kneeling down, I do feel sorry for Asiana Airlines Flight Attendants who have to do this at every seat down the aisle. I ordered the steak from the Western option and champagne to drink. Shortly after all of the lunch orders were taken, another flight attendant came through the Business Class cabin placing white tablecloths on the tray tables. This was followed by another flight attendant with a trolley with all the table settings. No trays were used for lunch. All items were individually placed on the tray table by the flight attendant. Based on wether you ordered Western or Korean option, the place setting was different.
Following the place setting, drinks that were ordered with the lunch order was served. My champagne was stored in ice in the galley so whenever I needed a refill, the flight attendant would retrieve the bottle from the galley. Drinks were followed by the bread basket for passengers who ordered the Western option. I pointed to the garlic bread and the flight attendant placed two pieces on my bread plate.
The bread basket was followed by a plate of canapés. Courses were delivered and finished plates were cleared at each passengers tempo. Service did not feel rushed and the flight attendants were great at keeping pace with each individual passenger's speed. Following the canapés, the appetizer course consisting of ham with melons served with a side of greens, bell peppers, and asparagus was delivered. The melons were sweet and paired really well with the ham. While I used most of the small bottle of oil and vinegar for dipping my bread, I used what was leftover on the greens. Once the appetizer plates were cleared, the soup course arrived. The cream based soup arrived hot, not lukewarm. Once I was finished with the bowl of soup, my main course was delivered.
The first thing that struck me when my steak was delivered was how much effort was put into the presentation. The steak was plated better than at most restaurants. The filet steak was cooked just right and still nice and pink inside. I finished every piece of food off of the plate. During the meal, drinks and water were constantly refilled without having to ask.
Following the main course, the cheese plate was delivered. The cheese and condiments were all pre plated and contained three types of cheese, dried fruit and nuts, bread, crackers and carrot and celery sticks. Along with the cheese plate, I ordered a class of port wine to enjoy with the cheese. I was getting full already so I just picked at the plate a bit to sample the items. Since there still was dessert, I wanted to save some room for it.
Following the cheese course, the dessert course was delivered. the mousse style cake, which was topped with a fruity sauce was light and refreshing. The dessert was served chilled, but I am not sure if that was the intended reason or if it was in refrigeration before serving. The dessert was followed closely behind by the coffee and tea trolley with both the coffee and hot water for tea served from silver coffee pots.
By the time I had finished my lunch and one of the flight attendant removed the tablecloth from my tray table, 2.5 hours had past since lunch service started. I was starting to feel the effects of the champagne and port wine that I had been drinking during lunch. I reclined my seat into bed mode and tried to get some sleep. While I was able to doze off for a bit, I kept waking up due to the pressure points on the seat which made my back uncomfortable. Also, the provided pillow was way too thin and useless. When I finally put my seat back up since I could not sleep anymore, we were about half way through the flight.
My mom and I decided to get out of our seats and go checkout the lounge area at the front of the Business Class Cabin. One awkward thing about the cabin layout is that we have to go through the full width gallery in order to get between the two halves of the Business Class Cabin. Doing so each time would cause the flight attendants to have to get up and ask if you needed anything all done with a smile, but I am sure it is annoying for them.
We sat down in the lounge and while we were talking, my dad came over to join us. The three of us hung out in the lounge area for about 30-40 minutes talking about what has been going on at work. While we were in the lounge area, I went downstairs to try and get a view of the First Class Cabin but I did not get past the curtains separating the First Class Cabin and the stairs. The curtain dividers were fastened with Velcro so I did not want to take it apart and go in.
Once I came back up from below, my parents and I decided to go back to our seats and order snacks. From my seat, I pressed the flight attendant call button to order the snacks. I ordered the sandwich and potato chips, my mom ordered the ramen noodles, and my dad ordered the fruit plate. My sandwich was heated first and then the vegetables added afterwards. My mom's ramen noodle was served in real ceramic bowl along with kimchi and pickled radish. The flight attendant was proactive and brought a glass of water with each of our snack orders.
Later on in the flight, my mom also ordered the sandwich for another snack. I myself did not order anymore snack items but I did order a screwdriver and later on in the flight some cognac. Both drinks were delivered with a small bowl of honey roasted peanuts. I could not sleep so I thought the two drinks would help me fall asleep but sleep was still being elusive. Around this time, flight attendants came through the cabin taking orders for snacks from passengers who were awake and have not already eaten one. Shortly after the snack service, flight attendants came through the cabin again to take pre arrival meal orders. After taking the pre arrival meal order, the flight attendant explained that the pre arrival meal would be served two hours before arrival.
Two hours before arrival into ICN arrival, the all of the flight attendants came back from their rest break and began to stir in the galley. The mood lighting in the cabin was set to slowly increase the lights in the cabin for pre arrival meal service. Pre arrival meal service started with hot towels and followed closely by pre poured beverages brought around on trays.
Another flight attendant came by with white tablecloths placing it on everyones tray tables. Just as during lunch, a trolley full of table settings were rolled through the aisles and each tray table were setup by hand. Once the tray tables were setup, the bread basket was brought around. I pointed to the seeded bun and the flight attendant placed it on my bread plate. I wish butter was served but it seems Asiana Airlines likes to serve the oil and vinegar bottles instead.
Appetizer plates were served which consisted of shrimp served with greens, citrus and a light tasting sauce. The appetizer tasted light and refreshing and the sauce paired really well with the shrimp. Once I was finished with my appetizer plate, the flight attendant passing by removed the appetizer plate and the knife and fork I used to eat it with.
Shortly after my appetizer plate was cleared, my main course was served. The chicken, which was cooked in a mushroom cream sauce tasted good and the puff pastry garnish was crispy and the vegetables were not overcooked and complimented the cream sauce by balancing out the richness. I finished the whole thing except for the onion garnish. One of the many flight attendants constantly roaming the Business Class Cabin removed my plate and the remaining silverwares.
The final dessert course of this flight was delivered with a new fork. The fruit tart tasted fresh and the kiwi and strawberries were perfectly ripe which added to the sweetness of the dessert. When the coffee and tea trolly came by, I ordered a cup of coffee to wash everything down.
Once all of the pre arrival meal items were cleared away, I prepared for landing by stowing all of my stuff away. I also took the final minutes of this flight taking pictures of the outside as we began our decent into ICN. In a blink of an eyes, our Airbus A380 approached and touched down at ICN. The landing was very smooth and even when the engines reversed, the engines were not as loud as the engines on the Boeing 747 400. After slowing down, our A380 exited the runway and taxied to the main terminal building. We pulled into the gate on time with exactly one hour to catch our next flight to Bangkok. At the aircraft door, the flight attendants thanked the disembarking passengers with a slight bow and and still smiling after working 13+ hours.
Asiana Airlines offered great service in their Smartium Business Class cabin, but the Smartium Seat was not very comfortable for sleeping. I found the seat more comfortable in recline mode than in full flat bed mode. The entertainment system is touchscreen both the main screen and the remote, but there were couple of times where the simple things like returning to the previous screen was missing on the remote screen so that I had to lean forward and use the main monitor. The pillow was way to thin to to be of any use in my opinion. Since the cabin was warm, I did not use the comforter but it did look warm and comfortable for anyone who needed one.

I am Rolake, a beautiful young lady. I was brought up from the family of Envagelist mother that takes lord as the redolence of her body. My father died when I was 12years to a car accident while coming from his work at Marina. He was a loving father who close to his children like jugular vein. He loves family so much that due to his tight schedule he found a time for the family. As we all know that loves grow from the stable of relationship shared experience, loyalty devotion and trust, my family love keeps growing incessantly.
The death of my father bring out the fear of God from my mum. The tribulation moment forces her to be with her bible and be so conscious about life. She believed that what make death taken a man who has paid his dues in the world of achievers and Godly world like her husband; what of her who lacks focus towards God from the onset of her life. As my mother keeps growing in faith her hatred for me started growing bigger. She started believing that am possessed because am a paragon of beauty, a replica of angel as my dad usually say to me. My mother started believing that am now a replica of devilish angel.
I have a very strong love for fashion and trending wears. I see nothing wrong in looking good. If she refuses to buy those clothes for me, my uncle will buy it for me or I buy it with my savings. I also love gadgets a lot.
As a beautiful girl, by the time I was 16years there are many admirers, whenever I get to a place where many were decorated with personality tarnishing, insult which left them confused as whether they did anything wrong to deserve the fitting treatment, my beauty always gives me difference treatment. Every festive period I get numerous gifts from friends, uncles, niece, nephew, cousins including the secret admires. These usually annoys my mother because she believe am too engrossed with demonic character and that's why I always noticed by everyone.
After some years my mother love for me started decaying because she believes I cause her pain and she her attitude towards me gives me pain. As you know pain and love can't stay together, when pain enters love dissolves. I do nothing right in her presence.
I can remember one morning as I woke up to the greeting of the cockcrow in the distance, I stretched and yawn as I walked to the bathroom to brush my teeth. It was the sound of my toothbrush that invites my mother with a loud noise of Jesus! Jesus!! Jesus!!!

Samsung has always been the trend master in the smartphone industry. It was expected that new Samsung Galaxy Note 9 will be released with the premium features, but the new update is that Samsung has decided to bring two of the top innovative features in Samsung Galaxy S10 2019. Samsung Galaxy S10 will be unveiled in 2019 but the latest rumors revolving suggest that the company is going to hit the market with the latest technology. Samsung bringing the innovative technology in its tenth flagship is already a statement that this brand is up here to set the trend and has a benchmark in the industry.
In-display fingerprint sensor
The company was in the news for its in-display fingerprint sensor but it was a decision on hold that whether this feature will be launched with Samsung Galaxy Note 9 or not. Finally, the Samsung has decided to bring it up with Samsung Galaxy S10 and confirmed its industry partners about it. It is expected that Samsung Galaxy S10 display panel will be supplied by Samsung Display whereas Qualcomm is said to be supplying the ultrasonic fingerprint sensor.
Sound on display
The sound on display is a new technology which enables the display screen glass to turn in to the speaker and release sound. As that it sounds so amazing the actual theory behind it is the same like Redux, which is a British audio setup startup and is able to bring the technology of screen turning into a speaker. It is not confirmed yet whether the Samsung has partied up with the third party to bring on this innovation or is working on its own. The quality of the sound of this in-display speaker technology is also not confirmed. This rumor revolves in the market since Samsung Display event where a screen was shown off working as a speaker.
Edge to edge screen
With the innovation of bringing the fingerprint sensor and speaker into the screen, it is defiantly now confirmed that Samsung Galaxy S10 is going to be delivered with the edge to edge display. The screen will be sharing the maximum space and will give the bigger display and better view. The earpiece on top of the smartphone would be removed and will give the more room for the screen.
Pop-up camera
As it is been discussed that Samsung Galaxy S10 is going to be innovative by providing maximum display and bezel-less look but still the question is that if the earpiece speakers and fingerprint are embedded into the screen then where will be the camera positioned to make the smartphone complete bezel-free. The answer could be a pop-up camera like Vivo Apex. Samsung could follow Vivo Apex approach can bring the front-facing camera into the pop-up form.
Samsung Galaxy S10 release date
The expected release of Samsung Galaxy S10 is in the firsts of 2019 if Samsung brings the reveal forwards to CES in January.
Samsung Galaxy S10 price
The price of Samsung Galaxy S10 in UAE is not confirmed yet.

Organizing, on the one hand, a scientific brain- storming meeting in Helsinki to try to sum up some principals points of views, regarding the global governance issues, especially EU-Russia /Eurasia relationship, now in a slurry state, and, on the other, a Euro-BRICS young leaders summit, that one aiming to build a new bridge for the EU-BRICS rapprochement in an impetus to inject a new blood and fresh ideas about a new global order and a global society in the making, that will help to meet the old problems of security, multipolarity and integratio, is a brave and forward looking initiative.
The fact, that all of us will be meeting in Helsinki on the eve of the 40th anniversary of the Final Act, is overwhelming us with a much bigger scientific responsibility, than at the previous meetings, because of what we are going to produce and offer as our proposals for the world leaders. What the negotiators of the Helsinki process did 40 years ago and have done since then was a miraculous result – a gradual destruction the doctrine, clinged upon on both the sides of the iron curtain, of the Cold War. They managed to build a new perspective of security, based on the inter-related approach of political and military confidence building, free trade paradigm and human rights security. A renowned diplomat of the time wrote: « In Helsinki, for the first time in the postwar period, human rights and fundamental freedoms became recognized subjects of the East-West discourse and negotiation ». Another one, on the opposite site, just after the end of the Cold War, was more open-minded in his memoirs: « The Helsinque Final Act was signed on August 1, 1975, and its ultimate reality was that it played a significant role in bringing about the long and difficult process of liberalization inside the Soviet Union and the nations of Eastern Europe. This in the end caused the fundamental changes in all these countries that helped to end the Cold War ».
The real winners of the Cold War, in my view, were those pacifiers who were building at the CSCE a common security perspective in a divided bipolar world. That is why, at this right moment when this perspective, now in a multipolar world, is at stake, because of the Ukrainian tug-of-war, the role of the OSCE, as quite a single and quixotic paladin of peace and security in this squabble of the newly-born opposing alliances, by binômes « EU – ErAsianEU/CIS », « NATO – OrgTreatCollDefence/SCO », must not only be reinforced, but be reinvigorated or reinvented, through a new diplomatic process, of trust-building, common and shared security in a world of changing realities and polarities, of new challenges and threats of the global world, of the natural rights of the peoples, of cultural diversities, of the rights of the minorities, of the new rights of regions, which is a bright innovation to the international law. I think that without dealing with this perspective, we will be delayed in discussing other very important and serious questions, as defense and security, currency, energy and commodities, trade.
The meeting could include into the discussion the topics of a) world regions and their rights, as related to the European Union and the BRICS. b) Eurasian and global security issues in the context of the OSCE +. These suggestions might be bigger than our scope, but not insurmountable in terms of a discussion by a civil society and a scientific community, considering our eagerness to try to quench the fire of conflicts, hot and cold.
