A social media post showed President Trump with the first lady sitting on a couch at the Mar-a-Lago Club, shortly after meeting with the victims of the Parkland shooting.
However, it did not appear either of them were in the mood to engage. Donald and Melania Trump were both described as being in a "sombre mood" and that they did not dance. The question on everyone's mind, however, is what was the president doing there?
Apparently, President Trump was polling the members of the club on their thoughts on gun control and whether he should take an active stance on it. Donald Trump was not acting insensitive towards the victims and he was certainly not there to have a good time.

I love Maya Hansen's "Cake Corset Collection"! It's so yummy! With names like 'Mint Chocolate Corset' and 'Cherry Blue Corset', you're going to want to have a cupcake party with everyone wearing corsets! ….. maybe not. Click here for an actual cupcake corset. But, I do like the color combinations and extra ruffles. You can never have too many ruffles! And you can never have too many ruffled curtains. Also, I thought I'd throw in some Kiss and Metallica corsets… trying to balance the sweet with some rock!

Sizing is crazy big - the medium is more like a large! Not good for this type of t-shirt that's slightly smarter (IMO) than your usual baggy-fit print t-shirt. Have sent back for an exchange!

Students share culture
EIDSVOLD State School hosted a two-day Didge in a Day program last week.
On the first day, younger male students from Eidsvold State School got to create their own didgeridoo, while on the second day senior male students from Burnett State College and Mundubbera State School joined the senior students from Eidsvold State School to create their own didgeridoo.
A total of 34 participants took part in the program.
Alex Murchison is the facilitator of the Didge in a Day program and instructed the students.
"They start with termite-hollowed blank, the raw products from nature, and they go through a process where they use the tools out of a kit, where they make a didgeridoo and at the end of the day they actually have a finished didgeridoo that they can take home with them," he said.
Mr Murchison said the program allowed the boys to feel like they have achieved something.
"The main aim is that the boys do something practical that they can say I did this and they have something physical to show for it," he said.
Mr Murchison also hopes that the program creates an interest which will extend to things like learning to play the didgeridoo, putting artwork on the didgeridoo, which then could even go further into learning how to do canvas artwork.
"The idea then is that this catalyst can be a draw where other schools from the community, along with elders or parents, artists or players can come in and mentor the students at a higher level in more cultural pursuits," he said.
The program also aims to encourage reconciliation.
"One of the things that we really love to see is when the indigenous boys ask a non-indigenous boy to come along and be a part of it," he said.
Mr Murchison said this enabled the indigenous boys to share their culture with their non-indigenous friends.
"It's also a strengthening of the indigenous boys' pride for their culture, it makes them feel good about themselves and their friends get to learn something that they may never have known before."

Both potential initial public offerings (IPOs) on last week's calendar succeeded in entering the public markets and raising a combined total of $574 million. The coming week's calendar lists three potential IPOs looking to raise about $310 million.
Last Thursday, Clementia Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: CMTA) raised $120 million in an upsized offering of 8 million shares at the high end of the expected range of $13 to $15. The Montreal-based firm got a first-day pop of 9% and closed the week up 73%.

User Review( votes)
written by: Dr Ramakrishna Perugu
She smoothed along
for not one or two,
but oh for eighty years...
Mother...our Mother...
at last now got a little respite!
Not really a respite...
but a fatigue, a languor,
and a resultant deep reticence!
She's now looking like a
dangling relic of burnt-out spirits!
For all these decades,
she carried our joys and pains,
our sweet lines and acrimonious utterances...
as undying mixed memories
in an all in one large portmanteau
of her tender heart.
At our toddling days,
when released our father
his tender grip over our little fingers
to leave for other worlds,
who's there at that time for us...
yeah...our Mother, who nestled us
with her secure arms and love!
Her lap was our roost...
where grew we and learned to fly,
safe and far in the wicked skies
of human-jungle!
Yes...now, after all these years
she's looking tired...
but with an unfailing simple smile
of walking her family safe and happy
through tough times and hampering travails
to reach at last the pinnacle of fulfillment...
of life her and that of her dependents!
But now...why became she so laconic?
For the first time I saw her glued to her ancient cot
and heard her saying
"I'm tired!?"
All these three days
I too relinquished the outside world
and squatted by her side,
basking in her benevolent aureol,
watching her, winkless, wordless
as if at last I found my real world...my only world!
Yeah...now nothing is important for me...nothing else!
I am here...she's here...we're near as never before...
and around me the brilliant halos of her eternal love...
Yeah...now nothing is important for me...nothing else!

This adorable pink flamingo bag is unfortunately just sold out from Dresslily. Even though this bag in no longer in stock, Dresslily has lots of other cute, flamingo themed items.
The top I am wearing is one I bought in the L.A. fashion district, and I don't think I paid more than two dollars for it. It's cropped, and a kind of off-white color, so it goes with lots of other colors.
My skirt is by Shein, and it's $21.99. I ordered mine in a size small, and it fits me perfectly at the natural waist area.
I thought my pink necklace matched the rest of my outfit very well. I bought it on sale at Walmart for just a few dollars.

For some people, the structure of the body changes due to a variety of circumstances, making it difficult for the bladder to work properly. When this occurs in women, it is often called a type of pelvic outlet relaxation disorder or more commonly pelvic relaxation. If you are suffering from this you may need to seek medical support from a trusted urologist. Do not overlook the treatment options that may be available to you.
What Is Pelvic Relaxation?
Over time and as we age, the body changes. The support system that helps to hold the bladder and the uterus in place, for example, can become weak. This happens for many reasons but most commonly because of:
- Being overweight or obese
- Smoking
- Giving birth
- Being older
- Other factors
When these elements occur, it can cause changes in the structure and relaxation of the pelvic. In some cases, the uterus comes down while in other situations, the bladder can also come down. This creates a sensation of pressure and discomfort in the pelvic area. It can also cause:
- Pain especially when the condition worsens
- Discomfort during sexual activity
- Bulging of the tissue located at the top of the vaginal opening
One of the most common symptoms of this condition occurs after childbirth. Childbearing, especially when a woman's body is unable to regain strength in between pregnancies (because of the frequency of pregnancies in a short period of time), can be a big factor in the development of relaxation. In these instances, the bladder can leak, especially when a person sneezes, coughs, or laughs. This can also occur during sexual intercourse. It can be embarrassing and hard to explain. However, it can also be a problem related to your health, especially when it leads to a bladder infection, irritability, or irritation.
What You Should Do Now
If you are struggling with pelvic relaxation or you believe you could be at risk for it, realize there are treatment options that can help you. Many women, as well as men, can struggle from these types of changes within the structure of the body. To get any health, contact your urologist and schedule a consultation to learn more about your options.
When you come in to see our urologist one of the best in New York City, you'll get the one on one care and attention you need to overcome the limitations that pelvic relaxation can often bring.
To find out what your options are and to ensure you have every treatment option available to you, call our offices at 646-205-3039 and schedule a consultation with one of the best urologists in New York City. Find out what your options are.

I had resigned myself to not posting today – there's just too much going on in the real world this week – but this cracked me up. I just logged into the site a few minutes ago. Not having posted or promoted today, I didn't expect any activity, so I was surprised to see 30 hits (that's a lot for me), nearly all going to my post of ultrasound pics from a few weeks back.
"Did mom send the baby picture link to her friends?" I wondered.
Then I noticed the "Top Searches" listing. This is a cut-and-paste of what appears there:
face on mars, face on mars picture, mars face, mars picture of face, face of mars
I feel I owe you an apology, Mars enthusiasts. You have surely come here seeking info about the mysterious face on the red planet, and instead you are subjected to, well, this:
Whereas traditional ultrasounds roughly resemble an image of the face on Mars … these new techniques look more like the face on Mars if it had jaundice and was in slightly better focus.
I apologize if you feel your trip has been wasted, but I do admire your enthusiasm for search string permutations. Thank you for using the Internet.

Deniers Compared To Racists
I do not accept the premise! I understand how much you believe in your theory, but don't try to destroy the many more that don't accept your histrionics.
Al Gore says, One day climate change skeptics will be seen in the same negative light as racists, or so says former Vice President Al Gore.
The science is not so cut and dried as the former Vice President claims. For every scientist on the warming side, there's at least one on the opposing side. And for all the claims that the levels of CO2 or GHGs are climbing, there has been no evidence that the earth is warming. In fact all the dire consequences of more hurricanes based on (gasp) global warming just have not materialized. There seems to be a much more substantial connection between the output from the sun than anything else.
Don't try to paint me into the corner called racism. The analogy doesn't hold.

President Barack Obama has arrived in metro Detroit and will visit the floor of the North American International Auto Show in Detroit today.
But that's not all. The president's itinerary includes several stops and several meetings while in Detroit.
President Obama will begin his trip at Cobo Center taking in the auto show. It's his 18th visit to the Mitten since taking office back in 2008.
Outside of the center, protestors are expected. Teachers from Detroit Public Schools will be trying to bring attention to the conditions of the education system in the city.
Today, more than 60 DPS schools are closed due to a teacher sick-out.
Following his time at Cobo, the president will take a drive down Jefferson to the UAW/GM Human Resources Center to talk with union workers about the comeback of the auto industry since the bailouts.
Then, he'll finish his visit by meeting with people who call the city home.
On Tuesday, Flint Mayor Karen Weaver visited with President Obama inside the White House.

Ultra Low Frequency Waves and their Association with Magnetic Substorms and Expansion Phase Onset
- Author / Creator
- Murphy, Kyle R.
This thesis concerns the study of Ultra Low Frequency (ULF) waves during magnetospheric substorms. A wavelet algorithm which characterises magnetic ULF waves during substorm onset is presented. The algorithm is validated by comparing the spatial and temporal location of ULF wave onset to space-based observations of the aurora. It is demonstrated that the onset of ULF wave power expands coherently away from an ionospheric epicentre during the substorm expansion phase. Further, a case study of the time-domain causality of magnetotail plasma flows and ULF wave Pi2 pulsations is presented. Although highly correlated, it is demonstrated that the plasma flows cannot directly drive the ground magnetic waveforms but may be indirectly linked via a common source. Finally, results from a statistical study of ULF wave power during onset are presented. It is concluded that there is no statistical difference between historical sub-classifications of ULF waves observed during substorms.

You smoke a big flat spliff on an afternoon or late the fuck at night and this shit is fucking perfect. It was compiled by this dude named Ginger Shinobi who we know nothing about except that he is some red headed fucker who likes the classic arcade game. All these facts are well and good but the most important fact for us is that the promotional material for this compilation uses a quote from us like basically us saying that something is cool is a reason for you to download it. Check it:
"If you like music that takes you somewhere and is about the journey rather than the moment then this compilation is for you. This is music that you savour. MoombahDeep is like a long dinner rather than a quick snack. Sophisticated moombahton for adults. Adults who like to spend time in smoky warehouses at 4am."

After losing their two regular-season games against East Bridgewater, the seventh-seeded Green Wave win the third match with a defensive effort the ages on Saturday night at East Bridgewater High School with a 34-30 victory over the second-seeded Vikings in a MIAA Division 3 South Sectional quarterfinal round game.
EAST BRIDGEWATER - The third time proved to be a charm for the Abington High School girls basketball team.
After losing their two regular-season games against East Bridgewater, the seventh-seeded Green Wave won the rubber match with a defensive effort the ages on Saturday night at East Bridgewater High School with a 34-30 victory over the second-seeded Vikings in a MIAA Division 3 South Sectional quarterfinal round game.
Abington (17-7) advances to the semifinals and will play third-seeded Apponequet (18-4) on Tuesday night at 7:15 at Taunton High. Second-seeded East Bridgewater finishes the season at 16-4.
Abington played a 2-3 zone for the game and limited the Vikings to nine field goals on 50 shots. The Green Wave allowed only four field goals in the final three quarters after allowing four in the first eight minutes, while holding East Bridgewater senior forward Cassie Hall to seven points, all from the free throw line.
"We have a game plan that we go with and that is with whatever works best against our opponent and that was the zone,'' Abington coach Dan Norton said. "We've been playing zone and we've been playing man and we knew coming in here we had to make this a 34-30 type of game for us to win and that's what we did. East Bridgewater is one of the best teams on the South Shore and we have a refuse-to-lose attitude and our girls found a way to grind it out.
"Jess Brundage played one of the best games she's played in the zone on defense. She had about six or seven blocks and contested shots. It was good to see her step up like that. We have won games because of our defense, but not like this. We knew we had to step it up against East Bridgewater. Our focus going into this game was rebounding, and we thought if we rebounded and gave them only one shot because we knew Cassie Hall gets a lot of baskets on put-backs, that it would benefit us.''
Said East Bridgewater coach Andrew MacDonald: "This is a tough one to swallow. Anytime you play a team three times in one season is tough. They knew us very well and they did a great job on defense. They made some big plays down the stretch to help them win and they outplayed us. Our shooting was very poor, we got a lot of good looks, but the ball wouldn't go in for us.''
East Bridgewater led 10-7 after the first quarter after closing the quarter on a 7-2 run on a three-point play by Rachel Dutcher and baskets by Katie Smith and Sydney Dewhurst.
Abington tied the game at 13-13 in the second quarter on a Lauren Keleher (nine points) basket, which started a 9-4 run to close the fist half that was highlighted by a Isabella O'Connell 3-pointer for an 18-17 halftime lead. Abington held EB without a second-quarter field goal.
East Bridgewater outscored Abington 9-6 in a sloppy third quarter for a 26-24 lead, before the Green Wave made their biggest defensive statement in the fourth quarter.
East Bridgewater took a 30-27 lead with 4:26 left in the game on a Katie Smith layup, but Abington held the Vikings scoreless the rest of the game and closed the game on a 7-0 run to advance to the semifinals.
"When you score 30 points, it's tough to win basketball games,'' MacDonald said. "We practiced against the zone all week and I thought we were ready for it, but they executed very well and frustrated us.''
Madison O'Connell cut the deficit to 30-29 and Kristyanna Remillard (seven points) tied the game with a free throw for the Green Wave. Remillard put Abington ahead 32-30 with two free throws and senior guard Maureen Stanton sealed the victory with two free throws with four seconds left for a 34-30 lead.
"Remillard and Stanton knew coming into the fourth quarter knew that if the game was close, it's going to be our time,'' said Norton. "We got what we wanted and we knew if we could keep it close, we would outplay them down the stretch. We got what we wanted."
Rachel Dutcher led East Bridgewater with nine points and Kirsten Smith added five.

It is imperative for any organization that is carrying out clinical research to have in place thoroughly and properly written and complete policies and procedures. These are the cornerstone for any well-functioning Institutional Review Board (IRB) and Human Research Protection Program (HRPP).
This is a requirement set out by the Office for Human Research Protections (OHRP), which is tasked with protecting the rights, welfare, and wellbeing of human subjects that are involved in research conducted or supported by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). OHRP is part of the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health in the Office of the Secretary of HHS.
SOPs should be complete, compliant and up-to-date
Any IRB or HRPP has to have Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) that are well-defined, clear and in compliance with regulatory requirements. These HRPP policies and procedures should be complete, approved, and up-to-date, and should cover all regulatory requirements.
Most often, organizations carrying out clinical studies falter at meeting these requirements. This happens due to insufficient knowledge of carrying out these procedures in accordance with regulatory requirements.
Learn the ways of getting IRB and HRPP requirements right
A webinar from MentorHealth, a leading provider of professional trainings for the healthcare industry, will offer learning on how to get the IRB and HRPP requirements right.
The speaker at this webinar, Peter Vasilenko, who is the President of his HRPP/IRB consulting company, Apex Ethical Services, LLC, will explain the proper ways by which to write SOPs that meet regulatory requirements, are clear and concise. In order to gain this understanding, all that you need to do is enroll for this webinar, which you can do by visiting http://www.mentorhealth.com/control/w_product/~product_id=800972LIVE/?se...
At this webinar, the speaker will explain regulatory requirements and the required guidance on written materials. He will also show how HRPP accreditation Standards can help with writing complete SOPs. He will also show how to include best practices. Peter will describe what SOP's organizations should have in place based on their type of research, and the format and content of SOP's.
Also covered is why SOPs should be periodically reviewed and revised, as well as how to use SOPs for IRB education. This session is of high value to professionals who develop or are developing their SOP's, or are interested in reviewing and improving their existing SOPs, such as IRB personnel who are developing their IRB and HRPP policies and procedures, IRB personnel who want to review and improve their IRB and HRPP SOP's to ensure regulatory compliance and comprehensive content, Institutional Officials, IRB Managers, IRB Administrators, IRB Coordinators and RB Chairs.
Peter will cover the following areas at this webinar:
o Regulatory requirements and guidance
o How accreditation Standards can help with your SOP's
o What SOP's should you have
o Format and content of SOP's
o Periodic review and revision of SOP's
o Using SOP's for education.

UNEB PLE Results 2016 – 2017 | Uganda National Examinations Board
Uganda National Examination Board (UNEB) has withheld examination results of at least 1,886 candidates.
Addressing journalists at OPM offices in Kampala on Thursday, the UNEB chairperson, Prof Mary Okwakol said the results were withheld over examination malpractice.
She said a fake Primary Leaving Examination mathematicspaper circulated prior to the exams affected performance of 2016 candidates.
According to Prof Okwakol, non-Universal Primary Education(UPE) candidates performed better than UPE candidates.
"Kyankwanzi had highest absentees at 6.12 percent followed by Gomba, Kotido, Buvuma, Mityana, Mubende," she said.
According to her, performance was better especially in English language and Social Studies. "Urban areas posted better results than rural pupils," she added.
Prof Okwakol further noted that Division one had a total of 63,400 candidates while Division two had 251,787 of the 640,833 candidates who sat from 12,391 centres registered for 2016 PLE.
"Overall performance shows that male candidates performed better than females but females performed better in English," she added.
Fort Portal Municipality, Entebbe, Ntungamo, Rukungiri, Jinja, Kabale, Masaka, Mbarara, Lira, Masindi were best districts with 98 percent and above pass rate.
Serere, Namutumba, Bulambuli, Kyankwanzi, Iganga, Kaliro, Mayuge, Kween, Luuka, and Buyende were the worst performing districts.
Boys did better than girls with 541,089 (87percent) passing, compared to 517,889 (86.2percent) the previous year. More pupils qualify to join post primary institutions.
Speaking at the same occasion, the education minister Janet Museveni said senior one selection is set for January 24 and 25 at UMA, Lugogo.
In Summary
- Boys did better than girls with 541,089 (87percent) passed compared to 517,889(86.2percent) previous year.
- According to Prof Okwakol, Division one had a total of 63,400 candidates while Division two had 25,1787 of the 640,833 candidates who sat from 12,391 centre registered for 2016 PLE.
- According to Prof Okwakol, non-Universal Primary Education (UPE) candidates performed better than UPE candidates
2016 PLE: Boys beat girls, performance improves
KAMPALA – Uganda's education and sports minister, First Lady Janet Museveni, on Thursday released the results of the 2016 Primary Leaving Examinations (PLE), which indicated improved general performance
This time round, failure reduced by 9.2%, with boys' failure rate at 5.3% and that of girls at 7.7%.
She expressed her delight that more than 50% of the pupils who completed their primary education last year were female.
Minister Museveni said they had seen many young girls going to school, thereby reducing the cases of early marriages and teenage pregnancies.
UNEB chairperson Prof. Mary Okwakol had said earlier that from the results, male candidates had beaten their female counterparts.
There was marked improved performance especially in English, with girls performing better than boys.
In the past, poor handwriting has been the undoing for some candidates. But this time round, examiners reported that handwriting was more legible and candidates were more detailed in their answering of questions, with fuller sentences, it was revealed.
Minister Museveni said that since the introduction of the Universal Primary Education (UPE), PLE candidature had increased. However, urban schools performed better than rural schools in 2016, with non-UPE candidates shown to have performed better than their UPE counterparts.
Prof. Okwakol had also talked of more girls continuing to remain in school to the very end, an observation that would later be re-emphasized by the education minister.
In terms of distinction performance, English rose from 10% to 11.5%, Social Studies (SST) improved from 5.8% to 10.3% while Mathematics rose from 3.9% to 4.5%. Performance in Science, however, dropped by 7%.
1,886 candidates' results withheld
Despite the improved performance, the spot of bother has been in the critically increased number of withheld results.
Last year, at the time of release, some results of 909 candidates were withheld over suspected examination malpractice. This time however, the statistic has more than doubled. UNEB has withheld results of 1,886 candidates pending investigation and hearing.
It was revealed that a fake Mathematics paper was circulated prior to the exams, which is said to have affected the performance. And because of such scenarios, the government, according to the Education minister Museveni, is in the process of amending the UNEB Act to provide for stricter penalties for perpetrators of malpractice.
She also urged parents, both in rural and urban areas, to provide meals for their children.
Behind the bars meanwhile, of the the 69 inmates who sat last year's exams at Luzira Upper Prison, two passed with Division One, 32 in Division Two and three failed.
541,089 candidates qualified for post-primary education and with that in mind, Senior One selection will take place on January 24 and 25.
Now that the results have been officially released, schools should be able to access them on the UNEB portal, as UNEB executive secretary Daniel Nokrach Odongo had earlier said while delivering his pre-release remarks.
The results will be available on the exams body's officially website and schools can collect them physically from the UNEB offices in Ntinda, Kampala.

The highly anticipated Spring sports season is finally in full throttle. Athletes are shifting away from their winter sports and are now turning their focus towards the golf, tennis, lacrosse, and track teams. However, this is not the case for the OES men's basketball team.
With a 18-9 record, the boys have advanced to the quarter finals for the first time since 2013. The squad left at noon on Wednesday for their five hour trek out to Coos Bay, where they will play #2 ranked Dayton High School.
Team Captains Colby B and Ian H emphasized that, "If we don't come home with a 1st place trophy in hand, then we're not coming back at all."
Win or lose, the team has undoubtedly had a successful season, and has proven OES athletics to be a formidable foe for competing high schools.
In other athletic news, the OES Varsity Ski team has advanced to State, as they recently beat out 6A behemoth Jesuit High School. The team has had an enourmously succesful season, and will continue to wreak havoc in their upcoming competitions. If you see any ski team members, remember to wish them luck!
Additionally, the Sports Broadcasting activity led by Chris Hochgesang and Colin B. have released their first official podcast, which includes an interview with Colin B led by athletic director Dennis Sullivan. If you would like to listen, the file is included in the article.

Change proflie by time for HUE+
I recently got HUE+ LED for my case, and working fine, but wish i could have it switch automatic between different profiles, depending on time.
For e.x i would like to be able to have a profile with higher brightness during daytime and after a defined time by me use another profile at night with lower brightness
That's an interesting idea, we will look into this. Thanks for the suggestion!

Ming Soon Ang commented
its been more than a year, NZXT WHY IS THIS STILL NOT A THING!!!
Ben Hart commented
It is really annoying to get in bed only to realize your room is to bright from the hue+. Then you have to get up and go login and go open CAM and turn the lights off, quite irksome.
Would be great to see this +3
Please look into getting this set up, I like many other users, have our desktops on at night, a simple configuration profile change based on time would really work and make life alot easier, My HUE+ has been off, due to the fact I hate having to open up the app everytime I want to lower the brightness or turn it off, so I just simply leave it off.
Jarrod commented
Really keen to see this idea implemented too! I'm in the exact same situation.
Exactly I have been waiting for this for so long how can they not integrate something so simple.
Mark commented
I would love to see this. I like to keep my PC on at night and having this automatically turn off based on the day + time would be awesome since my PC is in my bedroom!
Andres commented
Letting set us profiles by the time of the day should be a better option.
Andrew commented
I live my hue+ but my system is always running and when I'm trying to sleep it can be a bit intense.
It's a bit of a chore manually shutting it off do I was thinking a setting within CAM where you can tell it turn off when system time is whatever, and turn back on when it's this time.

It is not clear whether the increased visibility of vocational education and training in New Zealand is due to worsening skill shortages and/or to a change in government, but either way it is a discussion worth having.
The focus has been on what's in it for students, and fairly so, given years of praising university education while belittling vocational education. But we should be talking about the other side of the coin too: why should employers train?
Countries with successful vocational training systems work extremely hard to ensure employer buy-in and support cost-benefit studies to understand why some firms train and others don't.
Earlier this year, I proposed on interest.co.nz that New Zealand could learn from the success of Germany and Switzerland's dual vocational education and training system. It is the most popular choice for 15- and 16-year-olds who leave high school to pursue a 3-year programme in one of the hundreds of white-or blue-collar occupations on offer.
The pathway is called dual because apprentices spend at least 70 percent of their time at work and the rest in a dedicated vocational school and leads to a national professional qualification. The dual approach has been heralded as partially responsible for the European countries' enviable youth labour market outcomes; which across the board are better than ours.
In New Zealand, out of 60,606 school leavers in 2015, only 1,435 had signed an apprenticeship contract by the following year. That is a meagre 2.4% compared to Switzerland's 65% and Germany's 54%. Attempts to raise the image have not resulted in droves-more school leavers in New Zealand signing up to apprenticeships. In fact, the reverse is true: The proportion of young people starting an apprenticeship straight after school has been declining since at least 2011 while the proportion of those enrolling in a university course has been increasing. The narrative is that the apprentice path is often reserved for students who struggle to reach basic achievement levels or unable to go to university.
This then creates a negative spiral in the apprenticeship space. Employers willing to train may find it difficult to find suitable candidate so in turn, fewer companies will want to train. The school leavers who may otherwise consider the option would need to compete for too few training slots so may instead opt for for university or low skilled jobs.
In the most recent review of Industry Training, New Zealand employers said the main barrier to training inexperienced workers was cost. This was especially so because too many school leavers were leaving school barely literate or numerate. Overall, the employers would rather hire older workers even when younger workers are cheaper. In their experience, older workers are work-ready and more stable thus demand less in recruitment and on-boarding costs.
Analyses of the dual training system show net-benefits for Swiss firms and net-costs for German firms. Most Swiss training firms gain benefits during the training as generally the apprentice's productivity is higher than the costs of training them. Conversely in the case of Germany, apprentices generate benefits for the training firm after the training. In this case, it is in the firm's interest to retain high quality graduates.
Most of the difference in the net-costs results from a higher share of productive tasks allocated to apprentices in Switzerland as well as lower wages of apprentices relative to skilled workers'. That Swiss employers are not bound by a minimum wage might partially explain why almost half of the firms there that can train, train. A Swiss apprentice's wage typically starts at 12% of the skilled-worker's and rises to around 25% by the end of the training. Apprentice wages in Germany are collectively bargained and the wage for a typical apprentice starts at 25% of the skilled-worker's and goes up to about 30% by the end of the training.
The deregulated labour market in Switzerland also means that employees are highly mobile. Almost sixty percent of graduates leave their training company within the first twelve months of training. It is therefore in the training firm's interest to break-even whilst the apprentice is still training. In the more regulated German market, graduates tend to stay with their training employer. More than two thirds are hired by their training company upon graduation.
In both countries, employers contribute at least 60% of the training costs and Swiss employers neither receive nor demand subsidies for training apprentices.
The level of the apprentice wage relative to that of a qualified worker can make a difference in the decision to train. Where employers anticipate net-costs from taking on apprentices, wage subsidies like those introduced by the Labour-led government sound sensible.
New Zealand's calls for more young people to consider this path need to be accompanied with cost-benefit analyses to support decisions for those employers on the fence about training.

This break below $6,450 confirms bitcoin's downtrend, according to one Fundstrat analyst.
"The declines over the past few days [have] done significant technical damage to most crypto currency charts," Robert Sluymer, managing director and technical analyst at Fundstrat Global Advisors said in a note to clients Wednesday. "Breaking below the April lows confirms a longer-term downtrend for BTC by establishing the first lower since the uptrend began in 2015."
The next support level is near $5,500, Sluymer said. If the current correction, which he said is a "big IF," matched the 2014 bear market, bitcoin could see an additional 50 percent drop to the next support level of $3,200.
Despite precipitous declines in 2018, the cryptocurrency has still tripled in value since last summer.
"Bitcoin's decline this year appears to be gathering steam, but it's important to note that the spot price is still up over 140% from this date 12 months ago," said Joe DiPasquale, CEO of BitBull Capital. "When compared against the meteoric 1400% increase seen overall in 2017, the gain isn't quite as dramatic but still outperforming many other asset classes."
DiPasquale's research indicates a bottom around $5,000 is possible before any recovery for bitcoin.
Other cryptocurrencies fell alongside bitcoin Wednesday. Ethereum, XRP and litecoin all dropped 7 percent, while bitcoin cash was down 5 percent.

Charity Choose Love, which campaigns and raises funds to help refugees, has opened a pop-up store on Foubert's Place in London's Soho.
The two storey space offers a range of products, with every purchase contributing towards buying a similar item for a refugee, to be distributed by Help Refugees and partners across Europe and the Middle East.
The store is split into three sections, each exploring a different stage of a refugee journey, from Survival (emergency blankets, warm clothing and food), to Future (educational materials and keys to a home).
"Last Christmas, the shop became a beacon of compassion in the heart of central London. Choose Love helped people from all walks of life feel empathy for refugees - and do something practical to help. This year, as displaced people attempt to survive another freezing winter in tents and makeshift shelters, we'll be inviting people to Choose Love once again and support refugees and homeless populations across the globe," says Help Refugees CEO Josie Naughton.
"The Choose Love pop up store is a heart-warming example of the kind of difference a community can make when it comes together. We are delighted to be able to donate this space and help the diverse shoppers of London's West End provide much-needed relief to refugees and the homeless around the world," says Karen Baines, head of group marketing for landlord Shaftesbury.

Now, I´d love to know: How do you plan to combine these foods to get the fiber you need daily?
Now, I´d love to know: How do you plan to combine these foods to get the fiber you need daily?
Time to share some healthy avocado recipes. Do you like avocados?
According to the USDA National Nutrient Database, one serving (one-fifth of an avocado, approximately 40 grams) contains:
Avocados are a great source of vitamins C, E, K, and B-6, as well as riboflavin, niacin, folate, pantothenic acid, magnesium, and potassium. They also provide lutein, beta-carotene, and omega-3 fatty acids.
Again, avocado is a high fat food. But they don't just contain any fat… the majority of the fat in avocado is oleic acid. This is a monounsaturated fatty acid. Oleic acid has been linked to reduced inflammation. Avocados may help protect against heart disease and diabetes.
Avocados can:
Despite its creamy texture, an avocado is actually high in fiber.
Eating foods with natural fiber can help prevent constipation, maintain a healthy digestive tract, and lower the risk of colon cancer.
Avocados contain substances that have antimicrobial activity, particularly against Escherichia coli, a leading cause of food poisoning.
Including avocados in your diet could help you naturally eat fewer calories and have an easier time sticking to a healthy diet. Adding avocados to meals makes people more satiated (full) and reduces the desire to eat for many hours, compared to a similar meal without avocados. Avocados are high in fiber, and very low in carbs, two attributes that should also help promote weight loss.

Do you know more is possible but, not sure how to make it happen?
Are you allowing yourself to be authentically and unabashedly you?
Are showing up for yourself in your life?
Owning who you are?
Connected to Soul?
Are you letting your old parts die off? Or are you holding on for dear life? (to what's not working)
This has been one of the toughest weeks in a while for me. As I write this, I'm still feeling tired and body sore from all the shifts and releases that have occurred.
The manifestations showing up in my life are simply reflections of the shifts I am making internally, energetically, emotionally…
As I've stepped into next level version for myself, all the buried beliefs, subconscious stories, seductive limitations have risen – in.my.face.
How 'bout you? What are you noticing about your internal landscape?
For me it has felt like this… Opening a 2-liter bottle of soda that I wasn't aware had been shaken vigorously: out of control – seemingly. And nothing I can do about it until it all settles.
(read below about how a #youarethemedicine group member faced and broke the cycle of her stopping pattern and has been moving forward ever since)
I told my friend it felt like my consciousness was going through a shredder.
"Interesting," she says, "What does that mean to you?"
It means – all the thoughts, beliefs, feelings, stories jamming up my flow and not aligned with my soul are being cut from my being.
Feeling the energy move through my body and the parasitic thoughts trying to take over my brain.
They didn't. I'm stronger.
As the energy ejected from my being, all I could do was be in stillness and provide self care.
No worries… I am still in one piece and deeply connected as ever.
It's not as dramatic as it may sound. It certainly isn't an easy process when the old parts are dying off.
The old must purge for the new to emerge.
Because where I am at vibrationally and consciously, there is no longer a match to this old stuff that had been programmed or I picked up along the way.
Are you feeling similar?
I find it comes in cycles. I've learned how to be with all the discomfort and to alchemize, shift, and transmute the energies into something more powerful – rather than have it take over me as it had in the past.
After the shift moves through me, the manifestation of the new shows up in my life – creativity, flow, synchronicity.
Here is the deal… any attachments to things outside yourself – Money, Love, a Business, Fame – keep you limited, stuck, in patterns and pain.
Those things and more are all great to have. But, if it's your sole intention to have them so you can then feel happy, feel valued, be noticed, etc. it is likely why you aren't having what you want and stuck in pain.
You see, this is the space I see people get stopped in their tracks or distracted from their path, journey, dreams…
The pain places. When the shift occurs. Their emotions get out of control. Body is manifesting all kinds of ailments.
It is a part of the experience of expansion. You hold yourself back when you focus on what is happening versus how it is supporting your growth, expansion, healing.
It's like taking the training wheels off the bike. Maybe a little wobbly, a little scary at first. Don't focus on the wobble. Don't let your mind fold to the discomfort by figuring out how to put the training wheels back on.
Life is for you. What is happening is part of the process of your unveiling, remembering who you are, integrating Soul.
Align within, the rest falls into place because you're coming from a deep space of authentic alignment.
Kelly Ann
P.S. a member of the You are the Medicine group hit a similar pattern as she was stepping into her next level version. Her pattern was to come so far in her business and then stop. She had been in a perpetual pattern of go/stop/go/stop and not really moving forward.
Well, in the 1.5 months she's been in the group she's become more and more clear what she wants for herself and her life.
She's moved through stories and beliefs that have held her back.
Things hadn't moved forward because she wasn't in alignment with her soul and desires. She kept coming from the space of her mind.
Now what is happening for her?
- Excited clients are finding and paying her.
- She's doing more of what she is passionate about.
- She is energetically aligned with her business and the results are showing up.
- Her close relationships are changing for the better.
- She is feeling more herself and seen by others for who she is.
Soul Alignment first then life matches you there.
Ready to tap into what you know is possible and make it happen? Details are here.

Furman wants a winning mindset from Bafana
BAFANA Bafana midfielder Dean Furman, wants the side to adopt a winning mentality if they wish to conquer the continent.
Bafana used to be one of the powerhouses of African football back in the days but a rapid decline have seen them losing that status, and they now struggle to qualify for major tournaments.
These days Bafana battle against unfancied nations likes of Libya, Mauritania, Madagascar, Ethiopia, Gambia and Niger. As a result they are finding it difficult to qualify for major tournaments on a consistent basis.
Furman has challenged his side to adopt the winning mentality which inspired Bafana to greatness back in 1996 when they lifted the Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) on the home soil.
In 1998, Bafana, were the runners-up in the Afcon in Burkina Faso and played at the World Cup in France. Those days are now history.
"It is a huge opportunity lost for us. Before the game we all said that 'yes, this is the game we need to win'. Sadly, it is an opportunity lost. As the coach said, if we can flip the results around, a draw away in Nigeria and the win here and that is four points and we would have be sitting here with a good start. Unfortunately that is not the way it is. We've drawn against Libya, a team we feel we should be beating.
"Of course it is disappointment," Furman said after they were held 0-0 by Libya in Durban.
All is not lost for Bafana, though, as they are still on course to book a place in the Afcon in Cameroon next year after earning four points from two matches.
After achieving an historical victory against Nigeria last year in the opening fixture, Bafana were expected to smash Libya, but fired blanks as they shared the spoils.
"We have to be disappointed. We need that winning mentality. I think that is what top teams have got. They don't celebrate zero-zeros. There are things to work on and to improve on. These are games which we should be winning.
"We've got to get that winning mentality back. We don't want to accept a 0-0 draw against Libya as a good result. They might be some good moments and performances but overall we feel we should be winning. That is going to be the attitude going forward," a determined Furman said.
Bafana will face Seychelles home and away in their next two Afcon qualifiers, and anything less than six points in these two assignments will be considered as average, if not a failure.
Seychelles are winless in the two qualifiers they have played so far. They were outclassed and outmuscled 5-1 against Libya, and Nigeria dispatched them 3-0 this past weekend.
In two matches, Seychelles are pointless and they have conceded eight goals. Bafana have a great opportunity to collect six points and go to 10 points after four matches.
Nigeria and Libya should cancel each other while Bafana are busy with Seychelles.
"We can't afford to take our foot off the gas. It has to be same as if we are going to play Nigeria away and that has to be our focus and mentality.
"Our focus at training should be treated as importantly as if we are playing Nigeria, Ivory Coast, Ghana or one of the big, big nations.
"If we don't, we have seen in world football that upsets happen. Anything less than a right mentality, we are going to cause ourselves a problem. We have to make sure that we are 100 percent on it from the moment we get in to camp until the end of the game.
"Everything has to do with attitude. That's something that we can maybe work on," he added.

Here's another idea about contrasting writing methods posted by Cavan Scott on An Awfully Big Blog Adventure –Planners or Pantsters?
I think it's basically the Architects vs Gardeners argument again – control versus less control – but flying by the seat of your pants sounds potentially chaotic and very scary to me, while gardening sounds gentle and wise.
A solution, thanks to Bridget Jones?
Not so gentle, of course when it comes to ripping out the weeds, squashing the snails, and hard pruning. Or editing, as it's called.

On Thursday 1 November a momentous event is taking place. School children from all over Australia will take part in the biggest simultaneous sing-along in the entire world. I am of course talking about Music: Count Us In (MCUI), Music Australia's national, free music education program. Funded by the Federal Government's Department of Education and Training, MCUI has been growing continuously over the past 12 years to become Australia's largest school initiative.
Last year saw over 660,000 students and 8,000 teachers from 3,000 schools sing the annual program song together at the same time all around Australia. This year's Celebration Day promises to be even bigger with almost 10,000 teachers registered for the 2018 program.
The 2018 program song was written by five talented students alongside program ambassador John Foreman and program mentor Justine Clarke at the song writing workshop in Sydney. Recorded by students at Sony's in house Sydney studio, 'One Song' was the final result. This song, which celebrates unity and the joy of music, will now be performed at the same time, on the same day all around Australia.
This year's main Celebration Day event will be live streamed from the Bellerive Boardwalk in Hobart, Tasmania with John Foreman OAM hosting the day's proceedings. The broadcast will feature performances from a combined schools band and choir as well as from 2018 mentor Justine Clarke.
The MCUI live broadcast from Hobart will begin at 12:00pm (EDT) on Thursday 1 November. In the lead up to this year's broadcast we will also be live streaming the Sydney Symphony Orchestra's schools concert. This concert will begin at 10:30am (EDT) and will finish with a special orchestral performance of 'One Song' at 11:15am (EDT). This can all be viewed through the MCUI Live Stream Website. The table below shows the timings for the live stream around Australia. We do hope you can tune in and join us for the song that stops the nation.
WATCH THE LIVE STREAM HERE FROM 10:30AM (edt) 1 NOVEMBER

The use of medications has led to dramatic advances in the treatment and prevention of many cardiovascular diseases. It's thanks to many of these medications—combined with heart-healthy lifestyle changes—that many people are living longer and feeling better.
But medications only work if you take them as directed. If you skip doses, elect not to take a prescribed medicine or take too much, it can be dangerous.
In fact, medication non-adherence—not taking medication as prescribed—is a leading reason for hospitalizations, more frequent doctor visits and medical costs. It can also interrupt timely care.
Think about it this way: managing your medications is just as important to protect your heart health as getting enough exercise and eating a heart-healthy diet.
Medications for heart disease
There are many types and combinations of medications available to treat cardiovascular disease. Medications are used to:
If you already have heart disease, you may need multiple medications. That's because each is used to manage different symptoms or reduce the risk of additional health problems or death. For instance, antiplatelet or aspirin therapy may prevent a stent from closing or more blood clots from forming. You may also be taking medications for other health conditions; for example, diabetes or depression.
Getting the most from your medications
In many cases, treatment for heart disease includes a balance of healthy lifestyle changes (diet, exercise and sufficient sleep), medications and, for some patients, devices and/or other surgical procedures.
To get the most from your medications:
Continue to take your medication—even if you feel well or don't have signs of the disease.

When problems are more likely to occur
Medication-related problems can happen when and if you:
Here are some issues that can arise with cardiac medications:
Some cholesterol-lowering medications may interact with grapefruit or grapefruit juice.
Foods and nutrition supplements high in vitamin K can reduce the effectiveness of warfarin (brand name: Coumadin). Certain antibiotics can also make bleeding more likely.
Skipping or stopping your antiplatelet therapy (aspirin, clopidogrel (brand name: Plavix)), prasugrel (brand name: Effient), or ticagrelor (brand name: Brilinta) after having a stent placed may increase your risk of heart attack, blood clots or death.
Skipping or taking your dofetilide (brand name: Tikosyn) or sotalol (brand name: Betapace) early can increase your risk of having abnormal heart rhythms or arrhythmias, some of which can be life-threatening.
Missing two or more doses of rivaroxban (brand name: Xarelto) or apixaban (brand name: Eliquis) can raise your risk of stroke.
Simvastatin (brand name: Zocor) should not exceed certain doses with certain cardiac medications such as: amiodarone (brand name: Pacerone), dronedarone (brand name: Multaq), diltiazem (brand names: Cardizem, Cartia XT, Tiazac, Cardizem CD/LA)
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) and naproxen (Aleve) may reduce the efficacy of aspirin depending on when it is taken.
Helpful tips
Here are some things you can do, especially if you take multiple medications, to help take your medications the right way.
Questions to ask

Leah Remini reuniting with Kevin James for Kevin Can Wait season finale
It's a 'King of Queens' reunion!
Kevin Can Wait
- TV Show
Leah Remini is getting back together with her TV husband.
The actress, who's been busy at work on the A&E docuseries Leah Remini: Scientology and the Aftermath, will reunite with Kevin James for the two-part season finale of CBS' Kevin Can Wait. The episodes will see Kevin coming out of retirement to take part in a police investigation, for which he and a fellow cop, Vanessa Cellucci (Remini), will pose as husband and wife.
The pair starred as Doug and Carrie Heffernan on The King of Queens, which ran for nine seasons beginning in 1998. It's been nearly a decade since the sitcom went off the air in 2007. "I never thought about bringing The King of Queens back," James had told HuffPost Live in 2015 about a potential reunion. "I loved working with Leah and Jerry [Stiller] and everybody on that show, so that's interesting. I don't know how that would play, though."
The Kevin Can Wait finale will begin with a half-hour episode on Monday, May 1 at 8 p.m. ET/PT, concluding the following week on Monday, May 8 at the same time.
CBS recently announced the show's renewal for season 2. "Gonna start getting in shape! Actually I'll start tomorrow, yeah… definitely starting tomorrow," James celebrated on Twitter.

Treasure Coast Hospice is proud to be a certified Level Three We Honor Veterans Partner with Veterans Affairs and other veterans organizations. This partnership demonstrates our commitment to providing quality care and services to veterans and their families in our communities.
We are honored to care for veterans with advanced illness, wherever they live - in their family homes, assisted living residences, skilled nursing facilities or hospitals.
Veteran Volunteer Program
Our Veteran Volunteer Program pairs recruited Veteran Volunteers with hospice patients who have been identified as veterans. Once paired with hospice patients who also have military experience, Veteran Volunteers have the unique ability to relate and connect with each patient, thereby creating an environment where life reflection and healing may occur.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the importance of Veteran Volunteers?
Veteran Volunteers are essential to the delivery of quality hospice care. Veterans are a part of a distinct culture with their own common language and experience. When Veterans interact, their common language and experience can form a strong and meaningful bond. The camaraderie created between veterans has proven to be supportive for all involved.
Veteran Volunteers help veterans on hospice service in many ways, including:
- Visiting patients to reminisce and share military experiences and other life stories
- Educating and assisting patients in receiving veteran benefits
- Participating in veteran pinning ceremonies and other recognition events
- What is the importance of Veteran Volunteers?
- What is a Veteran Pinning Ceremony?
A Veteran Pinning Ceremony is an opportunity to publicly acknowledge the military service and sacrifices made by the veteran and his/her family. The ceremony, conducted by a Veteran Volunteer, honors and recognizes a hospice patient's service to our country and helps them and their loved ones find closure and peace at the end of life.
