The concepts of knowledge economy and creativity economy have become growth drivers of advanced countries. World Economic Forum (WEF) has classified economies into 3 levels of development, in which, growth originates from exploiting raw natural resources for economies at level 1, from productivity for economies at level 2, and from creativity and innovation for economies at level 3. Unsurprisingly, leading countries of the world are at the 3rd level of development.
Vietnam is one of the 38 economies driving growth on natural resources, which is at the 1st level of development. In the Global Competitiveness Report Y2014 of WEF, amongst 144 economies, Vietnam has ranked 123 in "new technologies" criterion, and 95 in creativity capabilities. Top 3 depressions of Vietnam's competitive capabilities include: creativity, readiness for new technologies, and education, which raise strong warning signals for Vietnam economy.
On the contrary, during 60 years after independence declaration, Israel has struggled with wars, embargoes, and severe desert weather conditions, however, this tiny nation has well established its standing in economies of the 3rd level of development. Israel is the world-leading country on high-tech, technology start-ups, and venture capital attraction. Coincidentally or not, the top 3 biggest strengths of Israel are the weakest capabilities of Vietnam.
How did they do that?
Upon the coming visit to Vietnam, Professor Shlomo Maital from Israel will have a seminar at Talk & Think Forum organized by PACE Institute of Management about answers for the above questions. Details of this seminar are as follows:

About Talk & Think Forum – Talk to Think
Talk&Think is a not-for-profit monthly forum (with no participation fee) co-organized by PACE Institute of Management and Good Book Project.
The great Socrates once said: "I cannot teach anybody anything, I can only make them think". Making people think is a foundational activity of education, and when an individual truly thinks, he/she learns, learns authentically.
Talk & Think was, therefore, founded to help "make people think", and focused on core and in-depth aspects of economist – business, management – leadership, culture – education… With this spirit, the Forum attracts great support and participation of prestigious and innovative thinkers of their fields to share to share these insights and wisdoms to wider communities.

After months upon months of smack-talk, Chael Sonnen, or Fail Sonnen as some people are calling him, got just what he asked for. The self-appointed "Bad Guy" of the UFC ran into the buzz saw know as Jon Jones. Inside of one round, Jon Jones took down Sonnen, elbowing and punching him into a hapless pile against the octagon's wall. Jones put up, and Chael was shut up, TKO'ed in a brief, but violent bout. As Jonny Bones put it, he "Chael Sonnen'd Chael Sonnen."
After beating the challenger at his own game, Jones prepared to give the customary in-cage interview with Joe Rogan—and that's where things got a little hairy.
"Uh-oh, ohh, he's got a broken foot! Oh man. Wow. Jon Jones has a broken foot, ladies and gentlemen" – Joe Rogan
What a broken foot indeed. Jon Jones' big toe didn't just break, it channeled it's inner Kevin Ware. Just below the first joint on his left big toe a shiny white nub of bone poked through his skin. Jones's coach, Greg Jackson, would later confirm via twitter that it was a compound fracture. Strange thing is Jon Jones had no idea that the injury took place until he was about to be interviewed by Joe Rogan. To his credit, Jones would tough it out and give an interview after taking a seat on a stool. Cringeworthy doesn't begin to describe what it was like watching that interview…the pain was all over Jon's face. At a few points he looked like he might've fainted, and Jones kept squeezing his championship belt to calm his nerves. The break was so nasty that the UFC edited out all the footage of the broken toe from their post-fight interview videos. Apparently Jones had a celebratory trip to Jamaica planned after UFC 159, but judging by this injury, vacation will have to wait.
Here's a pic of Jones' gruesome, disgusting, NSFW toe
(via @MichaelDavSmith)…

There is some controversy as to what would have happened if Sonnen was able to it out of the first round, and if Jon had been ruled unable to continue by the referee. Sherdog.com reports that such an outcome would have likely resulted in a no contest ruling. However, according to an exchange between Dana White and a reporter at the post-fight presser, Jones would have lost via technical TKO. While it is unlikely that the title would have changed hands after a single round of outright domination, the rules are far form clear in this situation. In relation to what may have occurred in this fight, the unified MMA rules state:
13: 46-24A.16 Injuries sustained during competition
"(f) If an injury sustained during competition as a result of an accidental foul is severe enough for the referee to stop the bout immediately, the bout shall result in a no contest if stopped before two rounds have been completed in a three round bout or if stopped before three rounds have been completed in a five round bout."
13: 46-24A.17 Types of Bout Results
"10. No Contest: When a contest is prematurely stopped due to accidental injury and a sufficient number of rounds have not been completed to render a decision via the score cards."
16. Injuries Sustained by Fair Blows and Fouls
"A. If an injury sustained during competition as a result of a legal maneuver is severe enough to terminate a bout, the injured contestant loses by technical knockout."
At worst the fight would have been the flukiest loss ever, and a rematch would have been scheduled immediately, but the referee astutely decided that Chael had enough, and in the process he saved us, the fans, from three more months of baseless smack-talk from the "Bad Guy".

Casting Couch has rocked Tollywood after Sri Reddy opened can of worms for the tough times heroines have to face to get work. However, there aren't many actresses who come forward to acknowledge about casting couch existence or voice their opinion about it. However, Sammohanam actress Aditi Rao Hydari has revealed the tough time she had to face through for standing up against casting couch.
Aditi Rao Hydari Opens Up On Casting Couch
Aditi says that she had to lose work for eight months for voicing against casting couch. She adds that she cried during the period but has no regrets. "I have also been in this situation but I was able to stand up to it, make my decision and move away. I did lose work and I cried about it. I didn't regret it but I cried about it because I felt so upset that this was true and this is how girls are treated. I was like, how dare someone to speak to me like that! For about eight months [after the incident I didn't get work, but I feel that decision made me stronger in my intention about the kind of work I wanted to do. The year 2013 was difficult for me as it was also the year I lost my father but from 2014 onwards everything kind of fell into place. Sometimes you need to see a situation, deal with it, get out and be very comfortable with it, and that's how I felt. You need to be comfortable with the consequences and have no regrets," said Aditi.

Someone You Should Know!
Dr. Sherri Seyfried
Chair Person
Dr. Sherri Seyfried is Chairperson and Full Professor in the Department of Social Work. She has been a member of the CSU community for 17 years this January.
From an early age, she took an interest in observing human behavior and pondering the motivation for that behavior. All of the women in her family were educators, and a major topic of conversation for them was education and minority youth. From her family, Dr. Seyfried absorbed a passion and commitment for learning and the importance of promoting human potential among young people. She carries on this family tradition.
At Hampton University, Dr. Seyfried majored in Sociology and then took her Master's in Social Work at Norfolk State. She worked for a number of years in Clinical Mental Health, including crisis counseling. She was Director of Transitional Living Services in Cleveland, Ohio, her hometown, and later worked at Chicago Reid.
Eventually, Dr. Seyfried decided to pursue doctoral studies, stemming from her concern over the revolving door system in mental health and how to focus not only on what brought clients in for service but also to enhance the strengths they may have forgotten. She earned her doctorate at the University of Illinois-Chicago.
Coming to Chicago State was coming full circle for her. Hampton is an HBCU (historically-black college or university) and CSU a PBI (predominantly black institution). She feels a commitment to CSU. It is a circle for her with regard to promoting wellness in communities disproportionately impacted by stress-induced health disorders.
14 years ago a colleague had developed a course on Spirituality and Social Work. He gave it to her to carry on. The course incorporated mindfulness practice and uses Thich Nhat Hahn's book, The Miracle of Mindfulness. Over the years she noticed students' positive response to the practices introduced in this simply written book. Students often encouraged her to develop a part two to this course, she did several years later.
Dr. Seyfried's interest in mindfulness grew, and she went on to develop a mindfulness discussion group with other CSU professors representing the human service fields, including Dr. Aida Abraha, Professor Monique Germain, Dr. Thomas Lyons, Dr. Ivy Dunn, Dr. Mikal Rasheed and Dr. Quintin Williams. The group recognized the importance of introducing mindfulness practices to students preparing to enter the human service fields and who would be working with clients from under-served communities, all the while juggling work and caring for their own family members. From these discussions the group co-authored a book chapter titled "Mindfulness practice for healthcare providers in underserved communities: A values-based approach to service".
From this working group Dr. Lyons, Dr. Seyfried and Dr. Williams along with faculty from the College of Pharmacy won a NIH grant to develop a Center for Urban Mindfulness Addictions Research (CUMAR). Dr. Seyfried was involved in one of the studies that was designed to evaluate the efficacy of Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), an 8-week manualized curriculum, in reducing compassion fatigue and burnout among Recovery Coach case managers. The grant also afforded Dr. Seyfried the opportunity to attend many scientific conferences related to mindfulness practice and to also receive professional teachers training in MBSR from the University of California, San Diego.
The NIH grant had as one of its outcomes the education of mindfulness practices for students at CSU, Dr. Seyfried used this opportunity to develop the long awaited "part two" to the Spirituality and Social Work Practice course where she could then focus on mindfulness practice in more detail. It was from her observations facilitating the 8-week curriculum that was part of the NIH study and from many years of observing her students reactions to mindfulness exercises in her class, that she began to formulate what would be important in translating this practice for the student demographic at CSU. In collaboration with Dr. Bicknell-Hentges, Dr. Yvonne Patterson and Dr. Veronica Womack, "Mindfulness Practice and Stress Reduction in the Urban Environment" was developed and is currently in its third year. Upon a review of the literature, Dr. Seyfried and her colleagues believe this course is one of few if not the only courses of its kind being offered to students attending a PBI.
As a professor and administrator, she stresses that what matters is for learning to occur in whatever form that may need to be Overtime, she has developed a comfort in being flexible in her work, trying new ways to engage students and different methods to assure learning. She wants new colleagues to remember that no one knows everything, and we can learn from our students if we are open to listening. She encourages new colleagues to always remember to nourish that passion which first brought them to their chosen profession and collaborate with others sharing similar interests. This creates a certain synergy.
Dr. Seyfried wants us to know that CSU serves a very important constituency not captured by our peer institutions. The majority of our students are from the communities they serve and have a felt responsibility to give back to them. She sees CSU as serving a vital mission in the State of Illinois. We extend opportunities through teaching, research, and service for minority students and are known for that. She believes CSU should also be known as a leader in the cultural translation of research models and approaches for underserved communities.
Away from CSU Dr. Seyfried enjoys listening to great jazz. She believes Chicago has so many talented musicians, and that we are very fortunate to live in a city that has such a rich cultural arts community.
Dr. Sherri Seyfried's office is in the Williams Science Center, Room 116A. She's definitely someone you should know!

MBA & PGDM: New age Management Courses
Students are nowadays being very selective when it comes to taking admission in a certain institute and choosing the right course with the right specialization.
There are so many thoughts and questions revolving in their heads when they step out in the real world:
1. H.S.C done! What Next? BBA? B.Sc.? BCA? B.Com? BBM?
2. Graduation done! What Next? PG or Job?
3. PG Degree? Or PG Diploma?
4. PGDM course or MBA course?
In this era, where most of the students tend to take up Engineering or Medical, there are so many other fields which provide an enormous scope for career development. Out of which, MBA is widely known. MBA is the most popular choice of students when it comes to post graduation.
Why MBA?
1. MBA syllabus is interesting
2. MBA helps in management of one's profession
3. MBA leads to better Placements
4. MBA gives Results
Also, the specialisation courses in MBA are varied like MBA in HR, MBA in Finance, MBA in Marketing, MBA in Operations, MBA in IT, MBA in International Business, MBA in Foreign Trade etc. There are different types of management courses that students can take up as per their suitability;
1. PGDM- Post Graduate Diploma in Management
2. Part time MBA
3. Executive MBA
4. Distance MBA
5. Correspondence MBA
So, MBA is the course that will teach students all the life hacks necessary to lead a career of glory. Even after getting the Engineering or Medical degree, students find that doing an MBA course will give them a better hold on their profession and hence pursue MBA after graduation. It teaches them administration skills, management skills and relationship skills which eventually help them achieve all the goals in their respective careers.
Difference between PGDM and MBA:
Institutes recognised by AICTE can honour the degree of PGDM.
Universities and institutes affiliated to University can honour the degree of MBA.
PGDM syllabus is designed by the institute based on the guidelines of the University.
MBA syllabus is designed and granted by the UGC.
So, PGDM is equivalent to MBA in all the aspects except for the degree that is honoured.
FACT: All the IIMs give PGDM degrees, not MBA!
There are many PGDM colleges, MBA colleges, business schools and Deemed Universities in Delhi, Mumbai, Pune and Bangalore that offer these courses. But still, Pune remains the first choice of selection for many students. So, selecting a college from Pune; the Oxford of the East would be the first stepping stone to one's successful career.
ASM (Audyogik Shikshan Mandal) is an AICTE approved institute, affiliated to University of Pune and University of Mumbai. The various institutes under ASM are situated in PCMC and Thane which offer various ranges of management courses given by University of Pune and University of Mumbai respectively. Out of all these institutes, IBMR and IIBR are one of the top B-schools that offer PGDM courses and MBA courses along with other PG Diploma courses in Pune. These fields are one of those few which have huge placement opportunities and a great successful career.

What our customers say
Guillem Salom
Professional, attentive and above all a superb atmosphere with the staff of the centre. They are also very committed to the conservation of the Hormigas Islands Marine Reserve. The fauna and flora of the reserve are very accessible and abundant. Great!!!!
Oscar Calvo
A professional diving center with highly qualified instructors. Moreover, they are renovating their equipment and they offer the possibility to dive with wing, much more comfortable than the usual vest. This is where I go when I go to Cabo de Palos.
Cristina Alonso
My son did the training this week. A fantastic experience. A professional team. It has to be done again. Next year I'm enrolling my little one. Thanks for this week!!!!

I my project I have a little backup thing where the user selects a folder to backup and a location to back it up to. I have two textbox's, 3 buttons and a progress bar. The first button (button1) is to select a folder which will then be shown in the first textbox (textbox1). The second button (button2) is to select a save location and it will be shown in the second text box (textbox2). The third button is the backup button which will copy and compress the folder from textbox1 to the location in textbox2 but this will be inside another folder which name is the date and time of the backup. The progress bar will show the progress of the copying and compressing.
If possible I would also like to add a status thing that shows how many folders and files there are and how many have been copied and compressed.
I have no idea how to do this so any help would be greatly appreciated.

EarthShift Global Leads Team Chosen for Major Canadian Fuel Standard LCA
This is a major project for Canada and its fuel sector, with the Clean Fuel Standard aiming to reduce life cycle carbon intensities of fossil fuels over time by setting increasingly stringent reduction requirements for fuels used in transportation, industry and buildings. It will mark an important step forward in the nation's efforts to reduce carbon emissions.
The project's benefits are expected to become apparent by 2030, when Canada's carbon emissions from all fuels will be reduced by 30 million tonnes per year (the equivalent of 7 million vehicles' annual emissions).

That's how many text messages my ex-husband has sent me in two days - 91. He sent 47 on Sunday, 44 last night. This has been an ongoing problem. He gets upset about something, and I receive a text message barrage. Usually it's only somewhere between 15-20 messages, so he's really stepped it up in the last couple of days.
I limit my contact with him (at my therapist's urging) for my own safety and sanity, because he is a verbally abusive, manipulative narcissist who literally blames me for all his problems. One of the messages he sent said "You cause every problem I have in my personal life". I had no idea how powerful I am!
I am so tired of this, you guys. Sunday, his messages were verbally abusive (I posted about it). Last night, they were just rude, condescending and patronizing as hell. The theme that spans these is that I don't communicate enough information to him. He wants to know on a daily basis how the kids did in school, want to know what they ate, stuff like that. Which perhaps wouldn't be a problem, if he wasn't an abusive lunatic that just wants to keep control over my life (after 2 years apart!).
According to my former lawyer, who handled my divorce, these text message rants are "just how people treat each other" in divorces, and that as long as he is asking about the kids, I have to respond.
My therapist says that I need to find another attorney to ask about it, because she's pretty sure there's no judge in the world who would insist someone endure abuse in the name of co-parenting.
The ex's formula for these messages is usually to send 5 texts at a time - 4 of them consisting of blaming, rude presumptions and sarcastic remarks and insults, then the last one contains a question about the kids for me to answer. It's like he's making me talk to him. I want to stop and ignore him, but according to what my former attorney said, that would mean I wasn't communicating with him about the children and that could be used/held against me.
He's wily, I have to give him that, because almost every single one of those 91 messages refer to the children in some way (except for the ones that simply say "You suck" or "You are shit").
He called me this morning, trying to re-hash what he had ranted about in text message form. I told him we had already discussed those topics and needed to move on. He shouted at me that I HAVE to agree with him on certain things; I ended the phone call.
I feel harassed, I feel abused, I feel unsafe, and I want this to stop. Every time I hear the text notification on my phone my heart starts pounding. I had a panic attack last night, dealing with him. I don't know what to do, and I am so tired of taking his shit.

Go on a mini-vacation in the Little Red Dot and stay in your fave neighhourhood
It doesn't matter if you're looking to catch up on some extra quality time with your significant other or if you just want to treat yourself, one thing's for certain: Everyone needs to take a breather every now and then. If you haven't got the time to go globe-trotting, why not stay put and indulge in a staycation? There's something really satisfying about not having to pack your passport and avoiding airport traffic. So, go ahead, relax. It's okay to feel a little smug about not having to queue at immigration.
Lucky for us, Singapore's teeming with awesome neighbourhoods to explore. No matter how long we've lived in the Little Red Dot, it never fails to surprise with cool new restaurants, shops, events, and attractions. Why not hop in a cab or MRT and check out one of Millennium Hotels and Resorts' six hotels and stay for the weekend? They're all strategically located in some of our favourite Singapore locales:
Robertson Quay
Looking for a respite from after an epic Friday night at Clarke Quay? Plan ahead and book a staycation down the Singapore River at Robertson Quay. Nothing beats capping off the weekend with a laid back brunch at one of the neighbourhood's great cafes, bars and restaurants. Don't forget to take a slow breezy walk down the iconic river at night!
Have a staycation at…
For the millennial globe-trotter, there's the Philippe Starck-designed M Social with self-check in kiosks and spacey communal spaces perfect for networking. In your downtime, pop by Beast & Butterflies, M Social's signature restaurant for some of the best fusion cuisine in town. Are you a Scandi-fan who loves the #loftlife? Check out Studio M for minimalist designs, uber plush beds that you won't want to get out of and the panoramic city views. If you're looking to bring the whole family, we suggest giving Grand Copthorne Waterfront a try. Not only is it close to all the Quays, it's also a stone's throw away from the city. And don't say we didn't warn you, but the steak at Grissini is to die for. Charcoal-grilled Wagyu? Yes please!
Orchard Road
From glitzy malls to heritage walks, you can find anything and everything on this stretch. From Chanel to chicken rice, art galleries – this place has got it all. Want something more chill? While you're in the neighbourhood, make sure to explore the colourful shophouses on historic Emerald Hill!
Have a staycation at…
Spend the night at Orchard Hotel and take your time exploring every nook and cranny of this shopper's paradise. It's strategically located along Orchard Road so you're always just a short walk away from your favourite restaurants and shopping centres. Here's our hot tip: when your arms are loaded with shopping bags, simply head back to your hotel room and stash your goodies before moving on to your next destination – you're welcome.
River Valley
There's more to River Valley than meets the eye – sure, it's mostly residential buildings but there are also some hidden gems such as the Zion Road Food Centre, Little Farms, and Greenwood Fish Market. There are also some great shopping malls such as Liang Court, Valley Point and Great World City. Another reason we love River Valley? It's just a hop and skip away from the awesome cafe and bar scene at Tiong Bahru.
Have a staycation at…
Once you're done with wining and dining, why not work on your tan at Copthorne King Hotel's outdoor pool? They've also got an awesome garden terrace where you can sip on your happy hour cocktails and get a stunning view of the city – definitely the recipe for a relaxing weekend!
Even if Chinatown is one of Singapore's oldest and busiest neighbourhoods, it always finds a special place in the heart of the most discerning local. Beyond the kitschy souvenir shops and the overpriced hawkers lies our favourite streets – Ann Siang Hill, Club Street, Duxton Hill and Keong Saik Road where you'll find the hippest bars and hottest new tables that are the talk of the town.
Have a staycation at…
We say check out stylish and contemporary M Hotel Singapore which has Tanjong Pagar MRT and the legendary Lau Pa Sat food centre within walking distance. Although it's geared more towards business travellers, it's family friendly too. In fact, there's a Family Suite room with its own Jacuzzi! We also recommend checking out J Bar for their happy hour specials and live music.
Hello, weekend!
Say hello to the staycation life and take advantage of Millennium Hotels and Resorts' Hello Weekend offer! Guests can get 10% off their stay when it falls on a Friday, Saturday and Sunday, including breakfast for two. You'll also get 20% off dining at award-winning restaurants such as Beast and Butterflies and Hua Ting Restaurant for exquisite Cantonese dishes.

Southport Officer Arrested on Domestic Violence Charges
A Southport police officer has turned himself in for domestic charges filed against him. Corporal Robert Willis was arrested Saturday. The 37-year-old has been dismissed from his current position. He served as a routine officer at the Southport Police Department for five years.
Police Officer Involved Domestic Violence. Lighting a candle of remembrance for those who've lost their lives to domestic violence behind the blue wall, for strength and wisdom to those still there, and a non-ending prayer for those who thought they had escaped but can't stop being afraid.

Written by The Business Journal Staff
Farm Credit West, ACA, has announced that it will once again distribute patronage dividends to qualifying member-stockholders as a return on their equity from robust 2018 earnings.
The Board of Directors approved an increase of 25 basis points (.25 percent) over prior years' rate during their Dec. 13 meeting. This totals an overall payout of 1 percent of average outstanding loan balances.
"Our ability to offer a 1 percent patronage dividend payment to customers is a testament to the strength and stability our association has always maintained," said Joey Airoso, Chairman of the Board of Directors at Farm Credit West. "As a member owned cooperative, we take great pride in being able to provide a predictable and durable dividend and in rewarding our member-stockholders for their loyalty."
Since the program started in 2002, Farm Credit West distributed more than $590 million in patronage dividends to member-stockholders. This includes members at the Rocklin-based company's branches in Dinuba, Hanford and Tulare.
"As stewards of our customers' resources, our patronage program provides an added value return to our customer-owners and is reflective of the efficient operation of their association."
Patronage distributions to customers for 2018 will begin next month.

Shen Yun Orchestra Impresses San Antonio Audiences
2018-12-30 20:38
The unique orchestra of Shen Yun Performing Arts caught the attention of John McAnelly who watched the performance at the Tobin Center for the Performing Arts, San Antonio, on Dec. 28. Mr. McAnelly is a Hondo—a city within the Greater San Antonio area—was once a coach for a choir and a band for school groups. He also used to sing and gave opera performances in college. John McAnelly Council Member Hondo "I thoroughly enjoy the orchestra watching and listening, and the tuning and the erhu I don't know how to say it. It's just ... I thoroughly enjoy it." Mr. McAnelly bought the tickets for his wife as Christmas gift, and Ms. McAnelly was so touched by the Shen Yun performance that she can't wait to see it again next year. Evelyn McAnelly Retired Teacher "This music touched my heart and reminded me of those good times and the beautiful music. The dancing was flawless, the costumes were beautiful and yes I want to come back." The dances of Shen Yun Performing Arts are accompanied by a live orchestra that blends the classical music traditions of the East and the West. It features ancient Chinese instruments, such as the two-stringed bowed erhu, with a full Western orchestra. John McAnelly Council Member Hondo "The erhu has always to me sounded like a wind instrument like it breaths and it's being reminded its not. Her technique on the last note where she was drawing and then pushing and there was no change in the sounds. [It] was amazing. I thoroughly enjoy it." The precision and the cooperation of the orchestra was an eye-opener for Mr. McAnelly. John McAnelly Council Member Hondo "Well, it was interesting to me from the Westerner's standpoint I had never really analyzed how much was doubled. And because the trombone and the cello and the basson are doubled, so they must be perfectly in tune, I just never thought about it before." "What I appreciate was the fluidity, the sheer excellence of the players and the way that the winds melted with the other instruments. It's just the whole thing. Because you get this... [It] seems like a unison sound but it's actually four or five different instruments on the same pitch." He also admired the skills of Shen Yun's musicians. MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM John McAnelly Council Member Hondo "The winds [instruments] never seems to breath. And the music is written that way. There are pauses, but the music is written [in a way] that it just flows from one to the next." Beside the music, the songs and the story of Shen Yun gave McAnelly a different way of thinking about life. "I was not as familiar as I'm now with the ideas of the creator and was just reminded that it is an universal thing — of we came from somewhere. And the words of the soprano song, I need to study that." NTD News, San Antonio, Texas

Salon.com Life | They don't seem right for each other:
"I do not think there is any area of life about which two close friends cannot have a frank and confidential conversation, as long as it is carried on with due care and consideration. I do not think there is any true friendship that cannot survive a little doubt and disagreement, even about life's most fundamental decisions."

Over the past fortnight I have had to undertake many long car journeys in West Bengal. Since few of them involved travelling through what the Americans call 'scenic routes', much of the time in the backseat of a car has involved playing with my iPad and scrolling through Twitter.
Predictably, the main topic of conversation these days is the general election. If Twitter is any guide, the world of India seems to be sharply divided between those who want Narendra Modi to secure another five-year term and those who can't wait for counting day to show the Prime Minister the door. When Modi came to power in 2014, perceptions of him were somewhat hazy. Yes he had a significant fan following across the country and, equally, there were people whose 'idea of India' was seriously offended by his mere existence. However, apart from Gujarat where he was a known commodity, the perceptions of Modi varied according to individual tastes. I remember writing in 2014 that Modi was seen very differently — as a modern version of Chhatrapati Shivaji, as a free market enthusiast, as a no-nonsense administrator, as a poor boy made good and even as just another BJP leader. Despite the Modi-centric quasi-presidential election campaign, Modi was moulded to suit individual convenience.
This isn't the case in 2019. Today, after nearly five years of sustained exposure, almost every Indian has a view of their Prime Minister. Some dote on him while others are unrelenting in their hate. Few are indifferent. Whether this awareness will help him or go against him will be tested in the general election, especially if voting becomes a referendum on Modi's leadership.
I don't want to dwell on why many people think that Modi is the best thing that has happened to India since Independence. I think the reasons for his amazing popularity are well known. In any case, they will be debated and discussed during the long campaign. It is the perceived negatives I want to focus on — at least as far as they become apparent in social media.
However, before I touch on this theme, I would like to quote extensively from a column in The Spectator by the British writer Rod Liddle talking about an encounter with a well-heeled Indian lady in a pub.
"I was down the pub with my wife last week, out in the tiny smoking section, when a woman with a glass of beer sat down beside us and opened a conversation. She was from Delhi, she told us, before announcing somewhat grandly that she was an 'academic'. I suppose I should have got the hell out there and then, but I was enjoying my cigarette. Anyway, we chatted briefly about the university at which she worked and shortly after this she said that at the moment she was 'preparing for 29 March' and was aghast at the whole Brexit business.
"Oh, I said, I voted Leave. She responded somewhat acidly: 'And this is where the conversation ends. I cannot talk to irrational people.' I demurred a little… um, you know, I don't think I'm actually irrational and it's a little bit rude to suggest that I am.
"At which point she told me to 'check your privilege — I have brown skin and you are old and white'. I suggested to her that when it came to privilege, holding a university post wasn't too bad, was it, which was when she called me a 'jackass' and the conversation sadly ended.
It seemed to me a bit rich that a woman who came to the UK on a nice scholarship and had landed a good job in a university could be so blithely dismissive of the views of the majority of people in this country, even if it is a small majority. She struck me as being smug and stupid, a fairly lethal combination…"
Unlike writers in the UK who can get away by calling people 'smug and stupid', we in India tend to be more circumspect in expressing our displeasure. However, if were to scroll through the posts of the anti-Modi brigade, especially those who see themselves as being fairly cosmopolitan, you will realise that the lady from Delhi in the pub, was fairly representative of those who threaten to buy one-way tickets out of the country in the event Modi gets a second term.
It is not the actual policies and performance of the Modi Government that invites ire, although they seem to have reserved a special place in hell for demonetisation. Their main grouse seems to me is that the Government is stupid and the BJP is even more stupid. A Congress spokesman, hardly known for his astonishing erudition and profundity, for example, expressed bewilderment that the BJP has an 'intellectual cell'. Another, thought it unlikely that a BJP spokesman could ever have been employed by a global organisation, except perhaps in their call centre. A young man who is listed as an AAP candidate for one of the Delhi (unless he is left high and dry by a deal with the Congress) even put out a photograph of two cows with the caption: BJP workers seeking votes.
The examples can be multiplied but point to unmistakable signs of condescension. Like the Indian lady in the pub who couldn't countenance the idea that anyone decent could have voted for Brexit, there is incomprehension that anyone can support Modi and vote BJP. During the 2014 election, I encountered foreign journalists who were taken aback by the suggestion that the BJP looked like winning since he hadn't met a single person who was supporting Modi. Of course he didn't since the ecosystem around the foreign press corps tend to be vociferously anti-Modi. Had they been covering the Brexit referendum they wouldn't have met anyone voting to leave the EU.
It is the sheer arrogance of those who believe that they have a monopoly of the truth that marks the liberal resistance to Modi. This is one reason they failed in 2014 and this will be a reason why they may not succeed in 2019.

My declaration last July as a candidate for President of the United States (in 2020) is well known to one and all. There is the video (you can see it here). There's been an endorsement from my friend Donald Trump.
"Rattiner has done a terrific job with Dan's Papers, and his book, In the Hamptons, is as colorful and engrossing as you would expect. He describes the coming of age of the Hamptons with insight and affection."
And Wikipedia quotes my campaign rallying cry: "I run on a platform of peace, prosperity, harmony, the sanctity of individual freedom, the respect for law and order."
Last week I introduced my platform regarding the Mexican Border, Taxes, Washington, Global Warming, Wall Street, Political Correctness, Illegal Campaigning, Russia and Torture. (see the link below)
RELATED: My Presidential Platform for 2020: Making America Really Great Again – Part I
Here are further platform positions.
I will make peace with North Korea. They have shown the world the proper way to run a country. I would have them annex South Korea and take it over, with the exception of Samsung, Kia and Hyundai, which I will have taken over by American manufacturers.
I will agree to sit down and deal with any country that doesn't have a name that might confuse you or be unpronounceable. Kurds. Kuala Lampur. All the "stans." Borneo. Myanmar. Georgia. And there's many, many more where that came from. They must change those names.
If Barack Obama has not been punished for what he did by the time I am elected in 2020, I will have that taken care of.
China has brought sand and dirt up to a place in the South China Sea where there is a reef, piled it up, named it "The Spratley Islands" and put runways and an anti-missile system on it. This is an illegal island. It must be removed. And this is a job for the Marines. Send them in with shovels, pails, air cover and night goggles and have them shovel all that dirt back into the ocean so it returns to being a reef.
All the junk in the ocean is to be rounded up, nudged over to the American coastline, washed and lined up on the beach. There is to be a yard sale. Good for the economy.
I will offer amnesty, working papers and ultimately American citizenship to all people who came here illegally, are willing to make English their primary language, pay a fine, can answer questions about the Constitution, can pay income taxes, have never been in trouble, have been here ten years or more and can prove it, and are of the Caucasian race.
I will pass a law requiring that all Supreme Court nominees be right-wing conservatives who support the Tea Party and who do not consort with African-Americans, Italians, Hispanics or Jews. They don't have to be lawyers. We've had too many lawyers on the Supreme Court. Also too many educated people, particularly those from Yale or Harvard.
Citizens of this country bear arms because it is in the Constitution and because the people should have the right to rise up and beat back attempts to take America over by force. But why has this not happened in the case of Random Shooters? A Random Shooter shows up and begins popping away. Among the targets who have dropped to the floor and skittered out of sight are people who are carrying guns. And yet they do nothing. They just sit there, shivering with everybody else. This is the worst. In my time in office, I will pass laws that will require everyone who packs some heat to take courses in combat. We can give them a local police officer's badge to wear when they complete the course. They will report to the police. That's who you call anyway if you can get to your cellphone and dial 911 on those tiny screens with your shivering little fingers. And they will, on the spot, bring the perp or twerp down.
I will order all surveillance cameras removed from all public places in America. Please.
I will allow Muslims into the country who are willing to declare themselves "not radical" Muslims and swear to successfully resist "radicalization." Those are the kinds of Muslims who can lead us to other Muslims.
It is as clear as night turns into day who all the random shooters are. They are all Caucasian males with short hair who have last names with five letters or less. Beck. Wise. Oswald. They are also dour, sweaty, smelly, quiet and gentle. That's them. Also, they have never broken the law before.
These people come from the same American stock that created all the combustion engines, cars, planes and trains. They are the younger brothers of them, and they are depressed and angry. They are to be rounded up, volunteered into a special unit of Marines and sent to a small foreign country where they can randomly shoot people who deserve to be shot for not being American citizens. Military psychiatrists can determine if they have gotten enough stress out to be allowed back into America.
I will apologize to all world leaders that might have been offended (if Donald Trump is my predecessor) by curling up onto the lap of the statue of Abraham Lincoln in the Lincoln memorial and inviting world leaders to come, single file, stand below me and watch and hear me issue my apology to them personally.
Any problem Canada has, they should come to me directly.
America should have, in New York, the tallest building in the world. The Burj Khalifa in Dubai must be lifted up, put on wheels and walked to lower Manhattan to stand next to 1 World Trade Center.
Apple and the other smartphone makers will be allowed to keep their customers' data private except where the owner of the phone is a radical Muslim or a sweaty Caucasian white male with short hair who has a last name with five letters or less.
Yes, I will NOT build a wall between the U.S. and Mexico. The border is 1,000 miles long. Instead of a wall, I will have an army of border agents, in uniform, with rifles, every 50 yards along the border. There will be two agents paired together. They can watch each other's backs. For a wall of agents 1,000 miles long, we will need 3,200,000 agents—I did the math, or I had somebody do the math—and this will be a big boost to the economy, in employment, uniforms, boots, guns and training centers.
As I think it will be hard to find loyal white Americans who know enough Spanish to do this job, I will employ the illegal immigrants already here to do it. (Employ as "employ"—see last week's platform positions on DansPapers.com.) I will arm each agent with 100 Ziploc bags a day. As illegals try to get across, I will have each one arrested and searched (including cavity search), and, where heroin is found, I will confiscate it, put it into Ziploc bags, turn it over to the U.S. Air Force and have it dropped over the Presidential Palace in Mexico City.
Share other platform positions for me to consider in the comments or in an email: email@example.com.

Fans Will Not Be Happy About This Male R&B Singer Calling Out Beyoncé, SZA And Cardi B
"Stop using that f**king pain to make it OK to say some bullsh** on your record and get nominated for a Grammy..."
Meek Mill was reportedly denied entry into the Las Vegas Cosmopolitan Hotel on Saturday (May 25).
According to TMZ, the Philly rapper arrived at the hotel at around 3:30 pm local time to attend a DJ Mustard concert. His plans went awry when hotel security told him he was not allowed on the premises. He was also informed that if he tried to enter, he would be arrested.
"Here's the deal. You're on private property," a Cosmopolitan employee reportedly told Meek. "At this time, with the information that we have, we're refusing to do business with you. We have the right to do that."
When asked why the guard threatened him with an arrest and reason why he was banned, the employee responded, "We have the right to do that."
Video of the exchange made its way onto Instagram. Meek posted the video and accused the hotel and casino of "extreme racism."
"Some of these casinos have a bunch of [tactics] to keep the level of blacks down ... but love to take our money!" he captioned the post. "This happens to a lot of black entertainers not just me [...]"

Cosmopolitan hotel/casino going to extreme racist levels to keep too many black entertainers and black people .... they said they gone lock me up.. I'm like for what I've been once to a party with jayz ..... Some of these casinos have a bunch of Tatics to keep the level of blacks down .... but love to take our money!!!! This happens to a lot of black entertainers not just me either!! I felt crazy being put out by these white men for no reason!
TMZ spoke with Mill's attorney, Joe Tacopina after the incident and the ban order reportedly came from "a well-placed person inside the hotel." He also believes the ban was racially motivated. Tacopina has demanded the Cosmopolitan issue an apology to Meek Mill or legal action will be taken.
"We have learned that the Cosmopolitan maintains a list of African American recording artists who should be denied access for no other reason than than their culture and skin color," Tacopina said in a letter to the establishment. "Such course of conduct constitutes discrimination per se, in violation of state and federal law, and exposes you to significant monetary damages [...] we urge you to promptly issue an apology to Mr. Williams and grant him immediate access. In the event you fail to heed this one and only warning, we intend to pursue all legal recourse against you."
The Cosmopolitan has yet to respond publicly to the incident.

Emme's gems #30
Life cannot be an
if your body is
inpain, tired, weak, tight,
imbalanced, restless and
enslaved to bad movement
A lot of people whom I have encountered in the past 20 years of teaching live in a body which feels and functions way below how we as human beings are supposed to feel and function in our physical body.
As much as it hurts me to sense the quiet cry of someone who is looking for pain relief, energy and strength in their life, many of us need to first get to this point where we finally wake up and start to take responsibility for our health and wellbeing. All we want is to feel better, and the path we take on is a journey that bears the promise that life can feel like an adventure.
Sadly, that is what most people get sold nowadays in many mainstream yoga classes. It is by growing body and self-awareness that we can make the necessary changes physically, mentally and emotionally. And for that, we need to immerse ourselves in learning and studying before "doing." Otherwise, we will be jumping from one fitness/health/wellbeing technique to the next getting increasingly frustrated and even more confused.
Take away for this new week: make a decision not simply to be a participant in an exercise/yoga class, but to learn to take care of yourself by finding out who you are, where you are going and then embarking on a path to a dedicated practice which will get you there.
If you need guidance or motivation to get on this journey, you know where to find me.
