Deleting Transactions
Transactions are turnover data that has been imported into DealTrack but has not yet been linked to a supplier and / or a dimension item for every dimension that has been configured. This turnover data is contained within the transaction store, where it remains until suppliers or dimension items exist, such that it can be allocated.
As an admin user, it is possible to delete transactions from the transaction store by simply clicking on the Turnover drop-down option within the Config menu, and then clicking on the Delete transactions tab near the top of the page to start the deletion process.
Transactions are considered by DealTrack to be either unreconciled or unmatched. Unreconciled transactions are turnover data that has been matched to a supplier, but not to dimension items. Whereas unmatched transactions are those that DealTrack is unable to match to a supplier.
Selecting a supplier from the list shown on the current page and clicking the Delete button that will now become available near the top of the page (see screenshot below) will remove all matching transactions for the selected supplier from the transaction store.
Alternatively, if you wish to remove all unmatched transactions where the imported supplier reference cannot be matched to a supplier, simply click on the Delete unmatched button (see screenshot below).
Once you have elected to delete transactions, DealTrack will present you with the number of turnover lines that will be permanently deleted (as shown below).
You will notice that you will be given the option to select Consider manual turnover only. By selecting Consider manual turnover only, you are confirming that only turnover imported manually into DealTrack will be considered for deletion, therefore excluding any turnover imported using additional bespoke processes.
To confirm the deletion, simply select the Confirm delete button and press Confirm delete.
The Delete all button allows you to delete all unreconciled and unmatched turnover lines at once. The deletion is permanent and cannot be undone.
Deleting Turnover
Turnover is imported into DealTrack as a collection of turnover lines. Each turnover line corresponds to a specific supplier, a specific transaction date, and a set of dimension items.
Every turnover line must be linked to a supplier and a dimension item for every dimension that has been configured, in order for it to be linked to deals and contribute to earnings data within DealTrack.
As an admin user, it is possible to delete turnover permanently by clicking on Config at the top of the page and then on Turnover in the drop-down menu. Simply click on the Delete turnover tab near the top of the page (as shown in the screenshot below) in order to start the deletion process.
You will be presented with a number of filter criteria in order to determine what turnover data should be deleted (there are no required filters). A full list of filters can be seen below:
Supplier · A selection of suppliers where turnover data will only be deleted if it was acquired by the selected supplier(s).
Transaction date · A date selector where turnover data will only be deleted if it was acquired within the specified range.
Interface date · This is a date that can be included with a turnover line when it is added providing the option of an additional and optional label on a turnover line.
Currency · A selection of available currency.
Dimension filters · A selection of dimension items and dimension attributes where turnover will only be deleted if it is associated with the selected values.
Consider manual turnover only? · A yes or no selector where manual turnover is turnover data that has been imported into the system through the DealTrack user interface.
Please note — the Reset button can be used in order to reset any filters that have been modified.
Once a selection of filters has been made, click the Delete button and DealTrack will present you with the number of turnover lines that match your filter criteria and will therefore be permanently deleted. You will be prompted to enter your password to confirm the deletion (see screenshot below).
Please note — any deals that were linked with the turnover lines will have their earnings recalculated following the deletion.

Most, if not all, of us know lying is wrong. And most, if not all, of us know that one of the Ten Commandments tell us not to give false testimony, do not lie.
But we do lie and we tell ourselves it is no big deal–everybody does it. And we grade the lies, little, big, necessary, bad, not too bad, accidental, the list goes on. There are the lies we tell others and the lies we tell ourselves.
We tell little white lies to others to make them feel better or because we do not want to hurt them. Things like—no, that dress does not make you look fat, your new hair color looks so natural, everybody cheats on their taxes, do not give it another thought I am fine that you forgot my birthday, or you look the same as you did twenty years ago. We tell little white lies to ourselves, too, one piece of cake will not throw me off my diet, I will start exercising tomorrow, I am fine one more drink then I will go home, as long as nobody gets hurt it is okay.
When we exaggerate to make others think we are more important, smarter, braver, more disciplined, happier, or more successful than we are we are lying. Sometimes we want sympathy or we want to shock someone so we embellish the truth–with lies. We even exaggerate situations or circumstances to ourselves. We say we are starving or stupid or so tired we cannot move a muscle or that we will die if we have to do something we do not like or are afraid of.
Then there are the lies of omission. We simply ignore the truth or reality of something. We look away from the difficult or ugly denying it exists. We do not speak up when we see or hear distortion of the truth, when there is deceit and perversion. We keep quiet because it is none of our business, or we are too busy, or surely someone else is better equipped or qualified to deal with the issue.
Bottom line–pride is the beginning of lies whatever kind they are. When we tell a lie to protect or help someone we are really protecting or helping ourselves. The biggest lie is that it is no big deal to tell a little white lie or exaggerate or to turn away from a truth. After all everybody does it. We need to know, really know in our hearts, that all lies are destructive. Lies destroy trust, confidence, reputations, friendships and families. Lies wreak havoc with the mental, emotional and physical well being of us all.
Here's what I have learned about lies and the antidote, truth:
Lies tear down, contaminate and pollute, like a cardboard box they offer false security, hidden and confusing, are never satisfied and exhaust us, limit and confine, imprison, restrict and stagnate and end in death.
Truth builds up, is pure, natural and real, protects like a strong fortress, open and transparent, content and filled with energy, encourages and enlarges our world, frees, is lush and abundant with life.
Lies hurt and sometimes truth hurts; the tears that result from lies are bitter and sting, the tears of truth are sweet and refreshing.
The Lord detests lying lips,but He delights in men who are truthful. Proverbs 12:22
I wonder if the Lord has found delight in me today?
Just wondering…

Andrew Wilson looks at the risk management and insurance implications of transporting exotic animals
A spate of more than 20 deaths from avian flu and the cull of millions of birds in Asia since the beginning of this year has brought to the fore, once again, the issue of animal transportation. Three years ago, it was foot and mouth disease which was hitting the worldwide headlines, resulting in the slaughter of millions of farm animals as the rampant disease spread internationally through livestock movements. The devastating spread of foot and mouth reinforced the need for high standards within the animal transportation industry, and insurers specialising in this type of business have not only taken note, but increasingly insist on best practice risk management techniques.Away from the transportation of animals for food, wild and exotic animal relocations are becoming more commonplace in order to save animals from extinction and habitat pressure. Successfully underwriting the transportation of these live animals is complex and often subject to forces and situations not normally encountered by those covering the shipping of inert goods.As a result of these complexities, the market for brokers looking to place this type of business for their clients is generally limited to a small number of specialists, mainly within the Lloyd's market.The main restriction to entry for new capacity is the need for underwriters to have considerable hands-on experience in order to avoid potentially costly losses. To reach best practice levels, underwriters should conduct field trips to analyse the risk for the specialist transportation of high value animals. As a result, the Crowe Livestock team has travelled all over the world undertaking risk assessments and site visits. These have included visiting the US to underwrite the transportation of killer whales, travelling to South Africa to undertake a risk assessment on a pair of elephants, and going to the Caribbean to study the latest dolphin shipping techniques.
Key factorsGoing back to basics, exotic animals must be handled carefully in order for these often endangered species to arrive at their destination fit and well. When underwriting any exotic animal transportation risk the following key factors are taken into account when agreeing a premium rate and cover available:- type and age of animal;
- country of origin;
- journey length;
- method of shipping;
- destination; and
- experience of in transit support team.
The majority of the information required is usually provided by brokers through the standard risk introduction chain of regional broker to global broker to underwriter. Years of experience and extensive loss databases also help to analyse the likelihood of a loss occurring for a species of animal being transported by, for example, air freight with a particular airline.The heart of the underwriting process is proactive risk management, although this can only be conducted by an animal specialist with a deep understanding of their needs. Most animals instinctively fear the strange environments they are likely to encounter during transportation, so it is essential that basic principles are complied with in order to ensure the welfare and comfort of the animal during transit.The overriding aim of any risk manager moving animals will be to reduce the amount of stress that they will undoubtedly experience during a journey.Introducing animals in advance of the journey to the type of container that they will travel in, the food, water and other conditions they are likely to encounter, will help keep stress levels to a minimum.Where animals are able to indulge in their natural behaviour, they feel more comfortable and are less likely to react adversely, and the expertise of the specialist is paramount in understanding the best conditions for each species. Some animals such as ostriches travel better when kept in dark or semi-dark containers, as this encourages them to rest; others such as big cats should not be transported in mixed breeds, as this can trigger fighting. Animals such as antelopes and gazelle that normally exhibit a herding instinct can be shipped in group containers, whereas those which lead a solitary and mainly territorial life will need to be crated individually. Overcrowding can cause panic, fighting and increased stress levels.Mature males will quickly become upset by the presence of females on heat and should be kept quite separate, whilst pregnant females will need more space and will react differently from other animals within the same shipment. Heavily pregnant females and those suckling young should not be transported under any circumstances.
Environmental factorsThe majority of animals will be affected by temperature extremes. This is especially true of monkeys and other primates, which are particularly susceptible to heat stress. Whilst most animals can withstand reasonable variations in temperatures, exposure to excessive drafts can be fatal.Thus consideration must be given not only to temperature changes, but also to the chill factors involved. Providing some form of shelter or protection reduces this risk, but care must be taken to avoid suffocation; the provision of ventilated accommodation during transportation is self-explanatory. On the other hand, animals must also not be exposed to direct heat such as placing them in sunlight or near to other sources of heat, as to do so will lead to excessive dehydration and possible death. Pressure differences and therefore the location of animals in the holding areas are particularly important on air transits.The need for quarantine prior to travel is also an issue for insurers; quarantined animals should obviously travel separately from any non-quarantined animals. Biosecurity also plays an important part of any journey with animals being provided with clean, purpose-built quarters in which to travel.As well as considering the possible effects of housing during transportation on the likelihood of loss, the loading and unloading of animals must be taken into account, as this is often one of the most stressful parts of a journey. Animals feel vulnerable when entering strange surroundings, and sufficient time must be allowed for the safe and stress-free loading of the animals. It is, however, advisable to effect loading as near as possible to the planned departure of the conveyance.
Travel sicknessSimilar to humans jetting across the globe, travelling has an unsettling effect on animals and they must be disturbed as little as possible during a journey. The use of sedation methods to keep the animal calm is not one that is generally encouraged as it can increase the risk of injury or death. Tranquillisers should only be used when a specific problem exists and must always be administered by a veterinarian or other suitably qualified person. For this and other emergency health reasons it is always advisable, and in some cases will be compulsory, to have a veterinarian accompany a shipment of exotic animals. Other specialist staff may also be employed depending upon the species involved. The unique problems associated with moving an individual dolphin by air obviously differ from that of shipping a consignment of domesticated cattle by sea or a giraffe by road. There can be no substitute for having a sufficient number of suitably qualified and experienced staff at your disposal. The unpredictability of animals is a testament to this.The provision and implementation of a contingency plan is also good practice.As with most commodities, there is a certain amount of paperwork and official procedures that must be complied with when transporting animals. Licences may be required to move animals from one country to another, especially where endangered species are concerned. Unfortunately, many transits are prevented from going ahead due to the failure of the owners or shippers of the animals to adhere to these written protocols. Importing countries can reject shipments of animals if they have been re-routed through other countries, and in the past these problems have resulted in the deaths of delayed animals.All transits should have a designated and officially authorised route plan. However, things do not always go smoothly. Disease is no respecter of country borders. Indeed, if a country happens to contract a disease whilst a transit is in progress, it is possible that the protocol could be changed and the transit rejected.Most countries impose certain regulations and protocols on the transporters of livestock in order to meet minimum welfare standards, but these standards vary widely. As a result, leading industry organisations involved with the movement of animals including the International Air Transport Association (IATA) and the Animal Transportation Association (AATA) have quite demanding rules and regulations that are usually embraced within the legal and contractual framework of not only the individual transportation companies, but also the countries from which they operate. Indeed, at a recent conference in Paris organised by the OIE (Office International des Epizooties), a worldwide organisation involved in the reporting of and dissemination of information on animal health and diseases, it was agreed that member countries would promote the harmonisation of regulations and standards relating to animal transportation. Members also agreed to encourage research into improving the methods and welfare issues surrounding the movement of animals.Inevitably, there will be losses during transit. Recent examples include a shipment of giraffes from Africa to Europe which were refused entry due an outbreak of foot and mouth disease. This meant the length of the journey was extended, resulting in the death of one of the giraffes.If death or injury does occur, strict procedures govern the reporting of these losses to insurers in order that claims are dealt with effectively and quickly. Again, the need to have the necessary paperwork available and in order is paramount. Insurers will usually require a statement from a veterinarian in attendance as to the time and cause of death. If possible, an autopsy should also be performed.The transportation of exotic animals worldwide is growing in importance as breeding programmes increase to help take endangered species off the critical list. However, global regulation is needed to deter unscrupulous operators and animal traders who persist in shipping animals purely for profit with no due consideration to the welfare issues involved. It is up to all parties involved with animal transportation to work together to ensure that further progress is maintained.Overall, experience is the key factor in underwriting this class of business.If underwriters are satisfied that the transportation team knows what to do in the majority of situations encountered during a journey, the premium will be cost effective, the overall account profitable and the client fully protected.

Official: Notice about revaluation is a scam
MIDDLETOWN -- The tax assessor's office is urging residents to ignore any solicitation received from a company named Value Appeal out of Seattle that sent out a mass mailing recently claiming it will correct over-assessments of property taxes for a $100 fee.
The mailing states, in part, that "the Middlesex County tax authorities may have made an error when they recently assessed your property. The mistake means you may be over taxed by $1,800...For 10 minutes and a one-time fee of less than $100, it's well worth the potential savings of $1,800."
Assessor for the city Damon Braasch is advising property owners that the mailing is a solicitation, and there has not been a recent revaluation or anything that would suggest and over assessment or error in assessments.
The assessments included in the notice are not accurate, and do not reflect the properties actual assessment, according to a press release from Braasch's office.
It goes on to say that there is no such thing as "Middlesex County tax authorities" as there is no form of County government in Connecticut.
Citizens who receive this solicitation are advised not to respond or send money. Taxpayers are encouraged to contact the Assessor's Office directly if there are questions regarding the assessed value of property. All property information is available for free simply by logging on to http://middletown.univers-clt.com or by visiting the Assessor's Office.

text: Attended launch tonight of the 'Ancient cultures, new futures' Sri Lankan reconciliation photographic exhibition. Poignant. Poetic. Powerful.The exhibition starts with the all-pervading presence of the physical and cultural beauty of the country, which penetrates every aspect of Sri Lankan life. It then takes up the unavoidable theme of the trauma to which all—old and young—have been exposed. Building on these clusters of ideas and images, the photographs highlight the struggle—often frustrated and thwarted by false starts and disappointing failures—to emerge joyfully from the cruel and unhappy past. Four motifs run through the entire narrative: the rich and diverse ancient culture; the unfinished, poignant legacy of the conflict; the determined re-establishment of everyday life; and the struggle for a world of renewed possibilities and shared achievement.

The Values and Meanings of Life and LIFE
Life and LIFE are two different concepts.
They are interrelated, but fundamentally different.
Life is that part of LIFE which exists during its journey through the mortal world. Life is temporary, but LIFE is eternal. Life is a chapter in the long river of LIFE. LIFE is a series extending outward from the origin of the universe to infinite time and space.
Life can come to an end at any time, but LIFE can never end, even with the ending of Life. The Life of LIFE is over, but LIFE itself will always continue to exist in other forms.
Therefore,the values and the meanings of Life are different from those of LIFE. If you confuse the values and meanings of Life with the value and meaning of LIFE, then you are likely to have a confused Life.
The values of Life are to serve for LIFE, to pay off debts, to improve your LIFE structure, to make Life happy, joyous, free, and blessed, and to make it extend to higher space.
The meanings of Life are to create wealth and joy, to serve oneself, others, and the community.
The values of LIFE are to serve the Greatest Creator, to serve nature, and to maintain the dynamic balance of the LIFE of the universe.
The meaning of LIFE is that the universe exists for LIFE. LIFE lives for the universe. Without the universe, there would be no LIFE and without LIFE, there would be no universe.
So, what are the values and meanings of Life and of LIFE?
If your Life is happy, joyous, free, and blessed, and if you can orient your Life structure toward perfection, then your Life has value. If your Life can create wealth and joy for yourself, for others, and for your community, then your Life has meaning.
If your LIFE serves the Greatest Creator, serves nature, and serves other LIFE, then your LIFE has both value and meaning.

New Zealand Ranked 3rd for Economic Freedom
February 5, 2016 New Zealand Finance
New Zealand is the third freest economy in the world, beaten only by Singapore and Hong Kong.
Earlier this week the Heritage Foundation released its annual Index of Economic Freedom, ranking New Zealand as the third freest economy in the world.
New Zealand's score on the Index has fallen by 0.5 points since the previous Index, yet Hong Kong and Singapore, the only countries to be ranked above New Zealand saw a fall of 1 point and 1.6 points respectively.
The fall in New Zealand's score was attributed to a perceived loss of business freedom and labour freedom, although these drops were offset by increases in fiscal freedom, trade freedom and government spending.
No significant changes in freedom were noted in regards to property rights, freedom from corruption, investment freedom, and financial freedom.
It was also noted that the open markets and regulatory efficiency seen in New Zealand have greatly aided the country, but some concern were raised regarding the controls over government spending.

A showdown is looming between Dell Technologies and the shareholders who own the tracking stock for its 81 percent stake in VMware.
Amid widespread opposition to the plan for buying that tracking stock, Dell's owners, Michael Dell and Silver Lake Partners, are considering other alternatives, including raising the price they are offering or dropping the plan altogether.
On July 2 , Dell Technologies proposed buying the VMware tracking stock, which trades under the symbol DVMT, for $109 a share in cash and stock. The transaction would in one sweep take Dell public and allow Michael Dell and Silver Lake to pocket a large portion of the $13 billion difference between the value of VMware tracking stock and VMware stock itself. The deal would deliver 21 percent ownership of Dell Technologies to holders of DVMT at a valuation of $79.77 a share along with cash.
The morning of the announcement, Michael Dell explained to CNBC why it was the chosen path.
But in the three months since the deal was announced, opposition to its terms, which require a majority of DVMT holders to approve, has been consistent.
The company is in the midst of a road show, without Michael Dell, to drum up support for the plan. But hedge funds and other investors who have spoken to CNBC indicate the company will not have enough support to get the deal through.
While the hedge fund Elliott Management has chosen not to be the public face of a fight against Dell, it is opposed to the current plan, as are almost all the hedge funds that hold the stock.
P. Schoenfeld Asset Management, which owns $150 million of DVMT shares, detailed its case in a recent letter for why the deal needs to be changed.
Schoenfeld argued for a 20 percent increase in the consideration in the form of either an improved equity ratio, more cash or other alternatives such as a contingent value right. And the firm said it does not believe that Dell's recent examination of doing an IPO of Dell, which could then be followed by a buy in of DVMT, would benefit Dell.
Given the lofty valuations for an initial public offering that Dell recently received from investment banks, Dell may be more inclined to consider the IPO route. After taking place, it would allow Dell to buy in the tracking stock with stock at a 20 percent premium to its trading price.
According to people with knowledge of the estimates, the banks bidding for Dell came in with valuations ranging from a low of $90 to as high as $135. Whether it was using a sum of the parts, a price to levered free cash flow consolidated EPS or a multiple to EBITDA all for 2019, the numbers pitched by the banks were well above the $79.77 value of the current deal.

There are juices
and then there
are Cold Pressed
No Heat.
No Oxidation.
No Pasteurization.
There are juices and then there are Cold Pressed Juices. Cold Pressed juices are the healthiest and tastiest juices you can drink.
Commonly used juicers at home and juice stalls extract juice using high speed rotating blades which generate a lot of heat. Similarly, packaged juices commonly available in market are exposed to heat during pasteurization to increase their shelf life. The heat generated in both the processes destroys essential nutrients and enzymes leaving the juice lifeless.
On the other hand, cold press juicers first slowly crush and then gently apply very high pressure to extract juice from the ingredients. This process produces virtually no heat, keeping the nutrient content of the juices intact.
Also, unlike other processes, cold pressed process minimizes the exposure of raw ingredients to air. This reduces the chances of oxidation preserving the freshness of the juice.
Cold pressed juices are full of nutrients, enzymes, and vitamins, just as nature intended.

Brought this a month ago. Was coming home from a weekend trip in Mexico and got stopped by some cute boys working at the store. I never normally talk about skincare or go into a shop like this. But I had time before my flight. They talked me through everything. And can see a massive improvement to my already clear skin. I am used to getting turkish baths. But this is amazing for my face (and other parts of the body like arms, chest, ect when needing that extra boost). Would buy again however the price for me is a bit high. So would only purchase when it's on offer. But I would recommed
I just bought it today and I absolutely love the way it made my skin feel, my skin is so soft and actually a shade lighter lol but totally awesome. I'm so glad to fine this product line it's so gentle and I love that too.

Love the way my skin feels after!
This is my first ever review for anything EVER. I LOVE THIS FACE CLEANSER. Seriously, I was so so so skeptical about this when I first bought it, but this is the best thing I have ever used. I have naturally extremley dry skin and my face gets bad in the winter. I have tried everything and this is the only thing that has ever worked. I've been using this once a week for about a month now and my skin has not been peeling, or dry at all! This stuff works so good it definitley worth the money.
Absolutely amazing product sold by an amazing company. Noticeable difference after one use!
I am a 30 year old woman. I have never considered using a facial peel. I love this product it's amazing how much dead skin comes off my face. I am happy to add it on to my facial care routine.
This product is amazing! Leaving my face smooth and vibrant! So happy I got this!
Im so glad after using queen bee facial peeling. As it was adwiced by supervisor in the shop in Amsterdam the creme is perfect it makes the skin smooth delicate and nourish. I council to use this product.
Amazing! works super quick and the texture of the product doesn't feel heavy on the face.
I bought this on a whim after seeing a demo . I've even used it as a foot scrub and love it. As a single mom I rarely can afford to spend much on beauty products but this is one treat I'll buy over and over again
Used it for e3 weeks now , no more acne
amazing stuff
ive been trying so much products for my face, if you actually looking for something amazing this is what you looking for!
My husband bought this for me and it really is amazing! My face looks and feels so much younger. I would recommend it to anyone.

Not kidding this facial is everything, normally I wouln'd buy something so expensive just encase it doesn't work but the queen bee facial removes everything in one go! worth it
The product is perfect
I've been using this product since early October and I'm very happy with the results. Paired with the Viperlift peoduce by Venofye, my face looks so much healthier and actually looks younger as well. No surgeon for me! ")
It's awesome all the dead skin comes up to the surface
perfect treatment!!
no more botox !
I just got it and so far I see my face glow and clear
Buenísima, los resultados son increíbles.
This is a great product. I use the facial peeling once per week and follow it with Vitamin C serum, then my overnight cream therapy. My skin is so soft. If I have a zit, it dries quickly. I would definitely recommend this. It's an investment for your young, healthy looking face 🙂
This is the best product I've ever put on my skin! Worth every penny to have my skin so soft week after week! It's legitimately glowing. So happy I decided to get it!
Don't let the price make you hesitant to buy this product. GET IT. I use this after a hot shower with my clarisonic and after I wash my face it looks amazing and feels soooo soft! It's especially soft when you use the Queen Bee Day Moisturizer right after.
Gosh, I wish I would have had that inafomotirn earlier!

It's an odd topic for unpickling but it's something I do. I hunt down and collect brown recluse spiders. I guess it's not really unpickling but the spiders don't know since they themselves are pickled in alcohol (also, they're somewhat illiterate ).
I have quite a collection of the elegant but deadly arachnids sitting in a pretty little jar on a shelf. Here is a recent trophy:
They're pretty common in our area, and really very reclusive (hence the name). I've never had one attack me, stalk me, or insult me, although I'm sure the next of kin of my victims don't say very nice things about me.
Speaking of kin…
I generally allow spiders to live if they're doing me a favor. But these guys do not belong in the house or garage, or anywhere near it (although I do know that there is an entire village of them in my garage). So they go the way of mice and moles and mosquitoes, tics, ants, wasps, and other buggy little vermin when discovered.

This work was selected by Lindsay Fricano (class of 2019), who explains: "I chose this work because I was immediately drawn to the intense contrast and balance of the piece. The delicate, cellular forms juxtaposed against the dark void of a background is profoundly serene. As an engineering major with a passion for art, I felt an immediate kinship with the piece, as it has such a strong scientific inspiration. Too often there is a disconnect between art and science. I fully believe that integrating the two enhances both disciplines. Highlighting the beauty of the sophisticated structures that make up the basis of life inspires scientific and artistic achievement alike. Contemporary art and science can both be intimidating, and I feel it's important to make them accessible for all."
The Vault
The Vault, which also houses some of the works from our permanent collection, is dedicated to featuring and displaying works chosen by MSU students who work at the museum. Each month, one of our student gallery guides selects a piece from our collection and writes a short text explaining why they chose it and believe it should be displayed. By providing our gallery guides with an opportunity to participate in the curatorial process of selection and display, we aim to open a dialogue with the student community while simultaneously sharing with the public works from the collection that would otherwise remain in storage.

Bottom line? Your subconscious mind needs to be re-trained. Your rational mind knows that your Fear Of Shellfish is illogical.

Vanquish Fear of Shellfish Today.
Risk Factors & Causes for Ostraconophobia
An really disturbing incident from the past, is often (though, not always) the root cause of Fear Of Shellfish. The fear can be manufactured by the brain, in some circumstances, with seemingly no foundation. By exposing the root cause, you will be able to remedy the problem by easily exchanging harmful triggers. Persons that find themselves at greatest risk:
• Individuals who possess tendencies of apprehension
• If you are jittery, edgy, sensitive, nervous
• If you experience adrenal insufficiency

How to Know If This System is for You
You can use our two minute Fear of Shellfish Online Test to determine the problem's severity, but it's really pretty simple: If this phobia is having a significant negative impact on your life, its time to do something about it.
- Does the thought of Shellfish make you nauseous?
- Does it trigger a dry mouth and clammy hands?
- Does your heart feel like it's going to pound right out of your chest?
- Do your legs turn to rubber under the weight of your own body?
These are just a few examples of symptoms people can experience. Click to find out more about the symptoms of fear of shellfish.
We can help you get rid of not just the symptoms, but the cause. This is what CTRN is all about
Drugs and Prescriptions
The use of drugs and medication for Fear of Shellfish is not encouraged in our program because they generally mask the problem, rather than tackling the cause. Meds may seem to help in the short-term by temporarily improving your symptoms, but the problem is that they can never cure the core issue of the fearful patterns of thinking that are the automatic reaction to shellfish and which trigger the intense feelings of fear.
By the way – no one has ever developed a drug exclusively for Fear Of Shellfish – When looking for an answer, maybe you should think about possible side effects before turning to prescription drugs.
The good news is with our program, your Fear Of Shellfish will be history, without resorting to meds..

Well, if you don't believe all the various people who wrote the other articles, will you believe this Spec article, or are you insisting only on primary sources (i.e. a copy of the work order from public works indicating all work was completed in one night):
"This day in history Oct. 29, 1956
Hamilton Spectator This day in 1956 was the official first day of one-way streets in Hamilton, as city workers the evening before moved to make the changeover.
The view at the time was that one-way streets move traffic faster and more safely. Acting on a study by traffic engineers and consultants Wilbur Smith and Associates, the city converted dozens of downtown streets to one-way traffic to try to move traffic more quickly.
The plan was supposed to be a trial for 90 days, but most people liked the idea and it was continued till recent years when some streets, such as James Street, were changed back."
You can also watch this interview between the library's archivist and Mayor Bratina about the en masse conversion and the reasons for it:
and this IS primary material! The archivist is very clear that the change was made "all at once".

A Dominican Rum from Summum, who take their name from the Latin word meaning "absolute excellence."
A fitting title for this rum, which follows century old formulas, and aims to capture the flavours of the rum used by Máximo Gómez during his toasts in the Cuban War of Independence (Gómez had been born in Dominica).
The rums have been produced by Juan Alberto Álvarez, a maestro of many years' experience.
This rum has been finished in "Cream Sherry" casks. Despite the name, no cream is used in the production of this fortified wine, rather it is a combination of sweet and dry sherries, known for its thick, creamy mouthfeel.
This sherry is perfect for adding complexity and flavour to rum, as it is rich in both dry and sweet sherry notes.
The final product serves up classic rum flavours of burnt brown sugar, vanilla, tropical fruits, bright oak and dark toffee, alongside sherried flavours of dried fruit, sweet wine, butter, and white grapes.
A fantastic addition to the growing finished-rum market, this is a bold statement of intent from Summum.

The famous Lisselan Estate and Golf course in West Cork is for sale for 9 million euro.
The 300 acres between Clonakilty and Ballinascarthy include an 80 acre nine-hole golf course, 30 acres of tended gardens, and a French Château style house.
A section of the Estate was once home to the father of Henry Ford and it's understood the selling agents, Sherry FitzGerald and Knight Frank, are making contact with Ford Motor family in the USA to see if they might be interested in purchasing part of their history.
The property still has a motoring connection as it's current owner is the retired business-man David Blackburn who used to hold the Mitsubishi franchise for the UK and Ireland.
Lisselan is also linked with 1996 Cheltenham Gold Cup winner "Imperial Call", and from the archives we can now listen back to the moment when the Fergie Sutherland-trained horse crossed the finish line!

Sydney Road tram to Coburg. Great suburb. Great food. Great people. Great vibe. Great transport. Just great. Home to Pentridge Prison – Great Views and blue stone, yup it is great too.
If you take a look on google maps at Coburg you will notice a few things. It is almost a square apart from the Eastern side suburb boundary following the line for the most part of the Merri Creek Trail.
Pretty much through the dead set center runs Sydney Road which has every shop, store, cafe you can imagine to want. If you need it you will be able to find it on Sydney Road. Three train stations, the first is Moreland Train Station at the Southern tip of Moreland Road, Coburg Train Station which services the main shopping precinct of Coburg with Coles, Woolworths, Coburg Library and then to the Northern boundary of Gaffney Street is Batman Train station.
John Fawkner Private Hospital, Coburg High School, 5 or 6 parks and reserves to rest and play and that has covered Coburg. We like Coburg, very much.
Now let's not forget the elephant in Coburg's room – Pentridge Prison. Once the one of Australia's best known, loved and hated criminals. Pentridge's blue stone walls and cell blocks have been turned into up market catering venues. Individual cells have been turned into wine cellars – well when you think about it how absolutely perfect – cold, good humidity, safe – ideal for a wine cellar!
Pentridge will evolve and in a decade from now be one of those unique residential developments and importantly kept and not bulldozed for it is our history after all.
Food and Beverage:
- The Post Office Hotel
- Cutler & Co
- The Glass Den
- Coburg Bush Reserve

Last week, more than a million people RSVP'd to a viral Facebook event, calling on users to raid Area 51 on September 20, 2019. Located in Nevada, the U.S. Air Force base has been a longtime source of extraterrestrial conspiracy theories.
Since this joke event has caught national attention and sparked a wave of hilarious memes, the U.S. Air Force warned those who plan on participating in the event about approaching Area 51.
However, what would happen if you did raid Area 51?
According to federal law, entering a U.S. military base without permission is considered trespassing. A conviction of this crime is punishable by a maximum six-month federal prison term and a fine of up to $500.
In addition to numerous "No Trespassing" signs, there are many signs surrounding the base that say, "Use of Deadly Force Authorized." So, if you trespass Area 51 and military personnel consider you a security threat, you can and will be shot at.
The federal government officially acknowledged the existence of Area 51 in 2013 as a test base. But for decades, conspiracy theorists and UFO enthusiasts believe the base holds government secrets about aliens.
The creator of the Facebook event claims the raid is a joke. He has no intention of actually carrying out this plan.
For more information about trespassing laws in Ventura, contact Wilfert Law P.C. today at (805) 994-0560 and request a free consultation.

I am a fully qualified teacher of French, Spanish and English as a Foreign Language with over 20 years experience of teaching both adults and children.
Before, during and immediately after studying French at university I spent every possible moment in France. I fell in love with its amazing scenery, the food, the culture…and the language!
Then after qualifying to teach English as a foreign language, I went to work in the beautiful city of Cordoba, Spain, where I stayed for six years. On returning to the UK, I took the Spanish diploma and trained to be a secondary school teacher where I relished the challenge of bringing Spanish and French alive to young people.
Now I draw on all these experiences to make your classes fun, relevant and worthwhile. I'd like to show you that anyone can learn another language; it is never too late!

We have two flavors of background on this issue, first, immediately following, is a short backgrounder specific to this particular nominee.
After this short backgrounder and call script, we follow with a more in-depth backgrounder which goes to the heart of why Hudson Valley Strong encourages all Democrats to oppose ALL Trump SCOTUS nominees. We know this position is somewhat controversial; our analysis and rationale is explained in this 'end plate' backgrounder after the action call & social media information and phone numbers. Again, as action on SCOTUS could imperil us for decades, we encourage all to be fully informed and to speak with your family, friends and neighbors. Personal one-to-one influence is one of the best ways to alter others' political views.
Short Background
First this short backgrounder on this issue, here's an excellent quote from our Senator Gillibrand, who has stated unequivocally that she will oppose the appointment of Neil Gorsuch to the Supreme Court. Her full statement, quoted below, is as follows:
All branches of the federal government should stand on the side of the citizens they were created to serve. The Supreme Court is supposed to be the ultimate arbiter of justice for our citizens.
Time and again, Neil Gorsuch has put the rights of corporations over individual rights. It's clear that his judicial philosophy is outside of the mainstream.
He has ruled that a boss should be able to make family planning decisions for an employee and that corporations are people. I disagree.
I plan to stand up for individuals over corporations. I'll oppose Gorsuch's nomination and insist that it meet a traditional 60 vote threshold.
As a matter of strategy, Schumer, in his capacity as Minority Leader, has not yet stated directly that he will oppose Gorsuch, but we can be sure he and Gillibrand are acting in concert. But he strongly signals his own view as Senator, laying down the markers by which all Senators should judge the nominee, and he calls for a 60-vote (filibuster) threshold.
Senator Schumer's excellent comments on the matter are excerpted below:
A little more than a week into the Trump presidency, the new Administration has violated our core values, challenged the separation of powers, and tested the very fabric of our Constitution in unprecedented fashion. It is clear that the Supreme Court will be tried in ways that few Courts have been tested since the earliest days of the Republic, when Constitutional questions abounded.
Now more than ever, we need a Supreme Court Justice who is independent, eschews ideology, who will preserve our democracy, protect fundamental rights, and will stand up to a President who has already shown a willingness to bend the Constitution.
The Senate must insist upon 60-votes for any Supreme Court nominee, a bar that was met by each of President Obama's nominees. The burden is on Judge Neil Gorsuch to prove himself to be within the legal mainstream and, in this new era, willing to vigorously defend the Constitution from abuses of the Executive branch and protect the constitutionally enshrined rights of all Americans.
Given his record, I have very serious doubts about Judge Gorsuch's ability to meet this standard. Judge Gorsuch has repeatedly sided with corporations over working people, demonstrated a hostility toward women's rights, and most troubling, hewed to an ideological approach to jurisprudence that makes me skeptical that he can be a strong, independent Justice on the Court.
Make no mistake, Senate Democrats will not simply allow but require an exhaustive, robust, and comprehensive debate on Judge Gorsuch's fitness to be a Supreme Court Justice.
Sample Call Script for Senator Gillibrand
I'm [name], a constituent of Senator Gillibrand living in [town, zip code]. I'm calling to thank Senator Gillibrand and to let her know she has my full support for her principled opposition to the appointment of Neil Gorsuch to the Supreme Court. Her opposition is also important because, as we all know, this seat would not be vacant if Republicans had not stolen it by refusing to consider President Obama's nominee, Merrick Garland.

A reminder that calls and social media are more effective than emails and letters, especially on timely issues. (Per Sen. Schumer)
Sample Call Script for Senator Schumer
I'm [name], a constituent of Senator Schumer living in [town, zip code]. I'm calling to thank Senator Schumer for his strong statement of guiding principles and strategy concerning Neil Gorsuch's nomination to the Supreme Court. As Senator Schumer said in his 2007 speech before the American Constitutional Society, "The Supreme Court is dangerously out of balance," and Gorsuch's appointment would assure the continued reign of conservative ideology on the Supreme Court for decades. I also call upon Senator Schumer to oppose Gorsuch's appointment and to do everything in his power to block it based not only on Gorsuch's conservative ideology, but also because this seat would not be vacant if Republicans had not stolen it. Their raw power grab, in wanton disregard of democratic processes, must not be rewarded.

Further Background on Complete Opposition to Trump SCOTUS Nominees
We must never forget, nor allow anyone else to forget, that our democracy has been hijacked, first by Republican obstructionism while President Obama was in office, and now as the result of a tainted election. If ideologically conservative judges are appointed to fill any vacancies on the Supreme Court, this hijack will last for decades.
Before November 8, Republican obstructionism was nowhere more apparent than in the refusal to consider President Obama's nomination of Judge Merrick Garland for the Supreme Court. Had Hillary Clinton won the election, this obstructionism would have continued. Recall, for example, Senator John McCain's statement in October, 2016, "I promise you that we will be united against any Supreme Court nominee that Hillary Clinton, if she were president, would put up. I promise you." While a McCain spokesperson attempted to walk back that statement, we all know Maya Angelou had it right: "When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time."
The rightward lurch of the Supreme Court majority in recent decades has brought us, among other things, a significant erosion of 4th Amendment rights, a wrongly decided 2nd Amendment case in DC v. Heller, and, with Citizens United, the ascendancy of big money polluting the democratic process as never before in our history.
Also imperiled, if this rightward lurch continues, and if an additional vacancy on SCOTUS appears, are not only Roe v. Wade, but also other significant advances in the protection of civil rights such as the right to marry in United States v. Windsor, as well as further erosion of the Voting Rights Act already begun with Shelby v. Holder. As the Notorious RBG put it in her now-notorious interview,
I can't imagine what this place would be — I can't imagine what the country would be — with Donald Trump as our president," she said. "For the country, it could be four years. For the court, it could be — I don't even want to contemplate that.
- Charles Blow (New York Times) makes the case in full in his February 2 opinion piece:
This seat on the Supreme Court was stolen from Barack Obama when Republicans refused to even hold hearings for his nominee, and the election was stolen from the American public by maleficent figures, foul of motive and moving in shadows.
This nominee is the fruit of a poison tree and no amount of educational pedigree or persuasive elocution can cleanse him of that contamination . . . .
Some people worry that if the Democrats filibuster this nomination in the Senate, it will only force the Republicans' hand to employ the "nuclear option" . . . .
I say let them. In fact, make them. They are likely to confirm this nominee anyway. What liberals don't want is to have Democratic fingerprints on this political crime scene. Make the asterisk president's nominee become an asterisk jurist, the only one confirmed under an altered set of rules.
- E. J. Dionne (Washington Post) on opposing Gorsuch's appointment:
At least I understand Republican and conservative hypocrisy on this subject: They are focused on power and who will wield it. I find it harder to understand well-meaning people who were appalled by the hyper-politicization involved in the Garland blockade but now claim that an effort to stop Gorsuch's confirmation will only make matters worse. . . .
The Rubicon was crossed with Garland.
Dionne concluded: "There comes a time when the only way to stand up against future abuses is to insist that there will be no reward for the abuses that have led us to this point. If not now, when?"
- Senator Schumer has also made statements that are pertinent to our stand against confirmation of all Trump SCOTUS nominees.
Senator Schumer's 2007 speech at the ACS, the import of which is every bit as applicable today.
Recall the confirmation hearings and the assurances given. First, we were promised an era of gentility and consensus if the affable John Roberts were confirmed as Chief Justice. Roberts portrayed himself-to use a term we've heard before-as a "uniter rather than a divider." He would be the consummate Chief, we were told, because he understood the importance of respecting the other Justices' points of view. He would be a consensus builder.
Unfortunately, that portrait bears no resemblance to the bitterly divided Supreme Court we saw last term:
We saw fully a third of the Court's docket decided on a 5/4 basis;
We saw normally placid Justices taking the unusual symbolic step of reading their dissents aloud from the bench;
And we heard astonishingly harsh rhetoric – by Court standards – from the increasingly marginalized liberal wing of that Court.
One assessment, from Justice Breyer, overnight became the most pithy and poignant indictment of the new Court's direction: "It is not often in the law that so few have so quickly changed so much."
Senator Schumer offered four lessons learned from the confirmation hearings of Roberts and Alito. Here is Lesson 3:
Lesson Three: Ideology matters. It stands to reason that a conservative lawyer who has represented the most conservative Administrations and taken the most conservative positions as a lawyer is likely to be a very conservative jurist.
Senators have an obligation to scrutinize the character and philosophies of judicial nominees, and nominees have an obligation to cooperate. This is especially when a nominee's ideology, judicial philosophy, and constitutional views are central considerations in the President's decision to nominate.
There is an inherent illogic in preventing the Senate from considering the one factor – ideology – that is central to the President's own nomination decision. It is best for the Senate and the country when this scrutiny and debate occurs in an open and rational way.
We should reverse the presumption of confirmation. The Supreme Court is dangerously out of balance. We cannot afford to see Justice Stevens replaced by another Roberts; or Justice Ginsburg by another Alito.
Given the track record of this President and the experience of obfuscation at the hearings, with respect to the Supreme Court, at least: I will recommend to my colleagues that we should not confirm a Supreme Court nominee EXCEPT in extraordinary circumstances.
Commentary on Specific Supreme Court decisions
- Citizens United
In its Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission decision, the court opened the campaign spending floodgates. The justices' ruling said political spending is protected under the First Amendment, meaning corporations and unions could spend unlimited amounts of money on political activities, as long as it was done independently of a party or candidate.
The result has been a deluge of cash poured into so-called super PACs – particularly single-candidate PACs, or political action committees – which are only nominally independent from the candidates they support. What's more, the legal protections for corporations mean much of this spending, known as "dark money," never has to be publicly disclosed. [citation]
- 4th Amendment Rights
Justice Sotomayor on erosion of 4th Amendment rights:
"We can't keep bending the Fourth Amendment to the resources of law enforcement," [Sotomayor said to a] Justice Department lawyer. "Particularly when this [search] is not incidental to the purpose of the stop. It's purely to help the police get more criminals, yes. But then the Fourth Amendment becomes a useless piece of paper."
- Gun Control
Justice Ginsburg, among others, said of D.C. v. Heller, one of many decisions decided by a 5-4 vote, that it was "a very bad decision."
The Stevens dissent (to Heller decision) rests on four main points of disagreement:
1. that the Founders would have made the individual right aspect of the Second Amendment express if that was what was intended
2. that the "militia" preamble demands the conclusion that the Second Amendment touches on state militia service only
3. that many lower courts' later "collective-right" reading of the Miller decision constitutes stare decisis
4. and that the Court has not considered gun-control laws (e.g., the National Firearms Act) unconstitutional. . . .
Justice Breyer filed a separate dissenting opinion that, even with an individual-rights view, the DC handgun ban and trigger lock requirement would nevertheless be permissible limitations on the right. The Breyer dissent concludes, "there simply is no untouchable constitutional right to keep loaded handguns in the house in crime-ridden urban areas." [citation]

It really depends on the game, but more often than not I like multiplayer. Usually co-op, but there's some really fun versus games we play.
With Pokemon, it's usually my sister and I playing semi-together (with Sun and Moon my youngest brother is going to join in). We get different versions to help each other get the version exclusives, trade evolutions, and the other starters, but we don't neccesarily play side-by side. The exception being our HGSS soul link nuzlocke, which requires us to be around the same point in the game.

Obviously, I'll want to play board games with other people. Even games like jackbox! However, I am a person that likes to mostly venture alone onto adventures and whatnot. I like to take my time, do what I want, and not share!

The Mandarin Hide
Don't leave St. Pete without swinging back downtown for a drink along Central Avenue, which pulses with live music at a string of bars where tables spill onto the sidewalk. Check out The Mandarin Hide, a sophisticated speakeasy-style place, or head to Mastry's Bar, a local landmark. They're both great spots to toast St. Petersburg while planning your return.

Can I still participate as a graduate student, PhD candidate, or junior professional?
The target group of GPSS are master and advanced bachelor students and applicants with higher qualifications or ample work experience in the field are generally less likely to be admitted. This is because we are trying to keep a level playing field level, encouraging all students to actively participate. Past experience has shown that professionals who are much more knowledgeable than their fellow students tend to dominate discussions. If you would still like to apply, please explain in your motivation statement why you do not expect to be overqualified.
What is a letter of motivation?
The letter of motivation is an essay of up to one page that outlines your motivation in taking part in the program, and why this program is relevant for your academic and professional future. Academic papers and research proposals will not be accepted as mission statements.

However, if you cannot attend our program without financial assistance, we recommend that you seek advice from the local DAAD Office in your country of permanent residence (See https://www.daad.de/en/ → click on DAAD Worldwide in the top right corner). Another possibility may be local branches of German political foundations in your region, especially if they are official partners of the Seasonal School to which you are applying. The largest German political foundations are Konrad Adenauer Foundation, Heinrich Boell Foundation, Friedrich Ebert Foundation, Rosa Luxemburg Foundation and Friedrich Nauman Foundation.
Which language requirements do I have to fulfill?

I do not have any language certificates. Can I still apply?
If you state your level of English (please refer to the CEFR scheme) and your motivation letter shows a sufficient level of English, your application will still be considered. The language requirement is meant to ensure that all participants can keep up and actively take part in discussions.
Do I need letters of recommendation?
