Company policy. If dating is prohibited, don't turn a blind eye.
Roles. Power imbalances are taboo in workplace relationships. Owners and direct managers need to be particularly mindful as employees may fear retaliation and the loss of their job or upward mobility should they say no or things end in a breakup. Bottom line, no one should ever date a supervisee. If dating isn't prohibited, immediately move supervision to someone else.Marital status. Starting a relationship in the workplace is for singles only. If someone is married, they are off limits. End of discussion. Reputations are ruined, gossip will abound forever, and trust will nosedive, all of which negatively impact the workplace and productivity.
Flirting is likely to make at least some employees and coworkers feel uncomfortable. Additionally, there is absolutely no place in today's workplace for sexual comments. Not ever! If you or one of your employees is interested in someone, ensure that interest is expressed respectfully and reciprocated. Sexual comments and unwanted advances can lead to accusations of sexual harassment.Professionalism.
When there is a romantic relationship, it is each individual's job to keep their dating separate from their work, to treat everyone fairly, and to maintain professionalism at all times. Having a fight? Not ok to bring it into work. Physical affection? Stays outside the workplace. Long lunches or breaks? Unacceptable. Preferential treatment, private jokes, lingering glances, or excluding others? Inexcusable.Potential relationship issues or fallout.

In order to keep a productive, united workplace, ask employees to predetermine how they will handle things if the relationship doesn't work out. Request that they refrain from discussing relationship ups and downs or a breakup with co-workers. If you see them moving from relationship to relationship, ask that they not start another workplace romance after they've broken someone's heart. It's one thing to realize two people aren't a match. It's another thing to regularly remind a co-worker that they aren't enough.Address dating head on.
People are always watching and gossip is a natural consequence when behaviors change. Ask employees to let others know if they decide to start dating. They shouldn't elaborate beyond the fact that others might have noticed their interest in each other and that they are dating.
Employees or co-workers already married? The standard is to keep it professional at all times. This entails protecting their relationship, employees
Supervising dating employees? Once again, the standard is professionalism at all times. If their behaviors are negatively impacting their performance, other employees or workplace stability, it's your job to hold them accountable for their workplace conduct.
At the end of the day, people are hired to do a job. Encourage employees to keep their eye on their job and their private life private. Everyone wins when workplaces avoid and avert relational drama.

Joshuaism: I watched "The Witches," a movie based off a book by Roald Dahl the other day with the kids. (Fun movie, by the way.) At one point it was explained that to witches, children smell like dog droppings. Joshua got excited and said, "Oh! I love dog droppings!" Noah made a sick sound and I lovingly told him that dog droppings was really dog poo. I was worried he would get upset because we were all kind of giggling at him. But he smiled and said, "Oh, I don't love that!! I thought they meant Cough Droppings! I love those!"

(Reuters) - As the golf world turns its gaze from Winged Foot Golf Club to the year's final major at Augusta National in November, questions remain over just how much Bryson DeChambeau's hard-charging U.S. Open win could shift the sport's landscape.
With an average drive of 325.6 yards in Mamaroneck, New York -- the furthest of any U.S. Open champion in four decades, according to data compiled https://www.usopen.com/2020/articles/10-notes-to-know-from-final-round.html by 15th Club content head Justin Ray for the United States Golf Association (USGA) -- DeChambeau showed he could win by saving his precision for the greens.
Plenty of golfers struggled with the wickedly narrow fairways at Winged Foot Golf Club, with competitors hitting them less than 40% of the time, a record low, according to the USGA data, and DeChambeau was no exception.
But where others struggled, the 27-year-old American saw opportunity, because although he hit just 23 of 56 fairways DeChambeau still won the title by six strokes.
The great Jack Nicklaus wrote on Twitter that DeChambeau has "always approached game differently."
"For 143 golfers, Winged Foot played as expected. But @b_dechambeau played different one," said the 18-time major winner. "Overpowered course but never let moment overwhelm him. Showed patience, poise."
The triumph was no doubt validation for DeChambeau, who has famously tinkered with virtually every aspect of his game and returned from the PGA Tour hiatus with some 30 or more pounds of muscle packed on to add velocity to his drive.
Xander Schauffele, who finished the tournament fifth at four-over par, told reporters the power could see DeChambeau clean up trophies in the future.
"All the greats hit it pretty far for the most part. It's no longer sort of a touchy-feely game," he said.
"Revolutionise? Maybe he's just exposing our game in terms of, if he keeps hitting it further and further, I don't see why he wouldn't be able to win many more U.S. Opens."
If the sport tries to put a cap on that power - and those potential future wins - DeChambeau's coach Mike Schy told the BBC https://www.bbc.com/sport/golf/54241284 that American would still find a way to win.
"Try to make it tough for Bryson and I'm telling you he will figure out how to beat you," said Schy.

Re: Light weight fillets?
Posted by RogerJ on Jun 10, 2005
Raul, make sure your hull is straight and fair! It hard to change once you have done your fillets. Tape along the outside of the seams will help reduce flow through if you have any gaps or open wire holes. Epoxy tabs if done right will hold the seam closed when the wires are removed. I took extra time and taped the margins of the fillets before putting down epoxy. That gave me a reference line (a little wider than the fiberglass tape) so the fillet and tape ran straight down the seams. The tape pulls up easliy before the epoxy gets too firm so you don't have too much cleanup. You want the fillet material to fill the wire holes and allow an easy curve for the 'glass tape. The tape goes transparent so a wavy fillet will show through. Only you will really care, or not, about that. RogerJ

Unhealthy School Lunches Not Making The Grade
Short Summary: The food that is being fed to children at school is not meeting the standards that they should be. The daily meals that are in cafeteria lunches consist of extremely processed foods that are high in fat, sugar, and salt. These terrible lunches have been a major factor in the childhood obesity epidemic that has been very apparent all over the country. Schools all over the country are suffering from feeding their children terrible food, and not including healthy alternatives, some solutions are as simple as having a bowl of fruit in the lunch cafeteria lines so children can get necessary natural vitamins/nutrients while they are waiting in line.
Editorial: It has come to my attention that the meals that children all over the country are being fed by their school are atrocious! I was having dinner with my child and he was talking about how there is literally a layer of grease on the pizza at school that you have to wipe it off with a napkin before even thinking about eating it. Upon him telling me this, he also explained how disgusting and unhealthy everything at school is. Therefore I decided to take a trip to a few schools in my area to investigate how bad this problem really was. As I arrived to a few schools and walked into the cafeteria,

DANNY BROUGH is ready for a golden 2013!
That's the prediction from Huddersfield Giants head coach Paul Anderson as the final countdown to Super League XVIII gets under way.
The inspirational Huddersfield half-back will lead his club into a top-flight campaign for the first time after being named Giants captain following the departure of Kevin Brown to Widnes Vikings in late July.
Brough relished the role when he took over, regularly leading his side by example with some man-of-the-match performances.
And Anderson knows that if his main goalkicker can build on those displays this season, starting with the League opener at former Giants coach Nathan Brown's St Helens on Saturday, February 2, then the new year could prove special.
"Danny is a very proud man who will lead with his actions on and off the field," said Anderson, who appointed Luke Robinson as his vice-captain.
"He's one of those players who never knows when to give up or when he's beaten, and hates to lose with an absolute passion.
"That's why he's our captain, and I know the extra responsibility of being our on-field leader can make him an even better player for us. That's a very exciting prospect."

To protect Sumatran tigers, we mapped villages in Indonesia with high-risk human-tiger conflicts
- Posted by Admin Website ALMI
- On 21 September 2018
- 0 Comments
Deforestation and illegal hunting increasingly threaten the survival of Sumatran tigers. Humans are the biggest threat to these big cats.
There are only around 400 to 500 Sumatran tigers today, according to The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). These tigers are critically endangered due to habitat loss, conflicts with humans, and illegal hunting.
In the past, Sumatran tigers (Panthera tigris sondaica) lived in the forests of the islands of Sumatra, Java and Bali, in Indonesia. Now they exist only in Sumatra. They often come into conflict with local communities due to their shrinking habitat. At the same time, people often hunt the tigers to sell their skins, bones and teeth on the black market.
I am part of an interdisciplinary team that carried out research to learn how we can minimise conflicts between humans and tiger. We mapped villages in Jambi, Sumatra, that have high-risk human-tiger encounters. We also identified areas where the residents have low tolerance of wild animals.
These villages should be prioritised for interventions using cultural and religious approaches to reduce human-tiger conflicts.
Indonesia has outlawed the killing of tigers, but this does not deter people from hunting them. When villagers feel threatened by tigers destroying crops and livestock, they don't hesitate to kill them.
Research by Chris R. Shepherd from Monitor Conservation Research Society (Monitor) reveals that commercial reasons or market demands have been driving tiger hunting. In other words, it's not uncommon that the intention to kill a tiger is driven by money.
On the other hand, scientists, including Shonil A. Bhagwat of Open University, have shown that culture and religion can be used to support wildlife conservation and end tiger hunting.
Intervention in human-tiger conflicts
Between 2014 and 2017, we collected data from 2,386 participants in 72 villages in Kerinci Seblat National Park in Jambi, Sumatra. We then combined spacial analysis of risks of tiger encounters with humans with information about tolerance to uncover why conflicts between tigers and humans occur.
We used ensemble models and identified many potential villages near forest or rivers that were at high risk of tiger attack. We combined the tolerance scores with the information on risk from each measure to produce the maps and identify 7-9 villages at high risk and with low tolerance of tigers.
It is very important to identify low-tolerance villages with high risk of tiger encounters to determine where intervention should be prioritised.
According to our model, if conservationists carry out interventions in those villages, this can prevent 54% of attacks on tigers. This could prevent 15 wild tigers from being killed. That's 10% of the tiger population in Kerinci Seblat. The total population of tigers as counted previously in this area was between 122 and 179 individuals.
Our research, recently published in Nature Communication, used a multidisciplinary approach involving 12 spacial ecology and social science experts from the UK and Indonesia.
The research was a collaboration between non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and universities. We used 13 years of field notes on human-tiger encounters and geographical profiles. This method is used around the world to catch repeated attacks against wild animals.
Tolerance between living beings
In our research, we try to understand whether human tolerance of wild animals is "key" to control conflicts with dangerous wild animals like tigers.
We try to find factors that support behaviours that keep tiger hunting in check, especially for those who live side by side with tigers. We also look for the strongest predictor of their intention to hunt tigers.
In our investigation of human motivations to hunt or protect tigers,
we found that awareness about conservation alone has yet to restrain people from hunting. We also discovered in Aceh — where attitude, norms and behaviours are influenced by beliefs, stemming from religious edicts and religious leaders — that these beliefs can determine people's willingness to participate in conservation efforts.
The local people usually hunt tigers when the animals attack their livestock and people. Nevertheless, we did find people who want to protect tigers. This indicates there are pro-conservation attitudes among these communities.
The level of tolerance for wild animals is influenced by people's attitudes, emotions, norms and spiritual beliefs. Research by Freya St John and others described how attitude and spirituality based on customary norms determine the rate of tolerance. For example, anthropologist Jet Bakels found that Minangkabau and Kerinci people believe the souls of their ancestors are in tigers and can understand humans. They believe tigers only attack people for violating customary law.
We detected that people's tolerance for tigers decreases when the animals threaten their lives. So, although they have norms and beliefs that can increase their tolerance, if they've had a bad experience with tigers, their tolerance diminishes.
We used psychology models to understand how people make assessments, what drives them to act, and whether belief and norms can influence support for policy and intervention.
We found that customary norms can be used to support behavioural changes as preventive measures.
We also found that it's important to engage people's emotions. One way is to invite figures that the community looks up to, such as religious and society leaders, to be involved in conservation efforts. Social pressure where community members encourage positive activities for conservation can bring about behaviour change.
Interdisplinary approach is very important
The interdisciplinary approach in our research is very important. We combine social and ecological data to find the best approach to reduce conflict between humans and wild animals.
Tigers are critically endangered, but they also threaten human populations when their habitat shrinks. Sumatra is an example where tigers can live alongside humans.
Millions of dollars have been spent on conservation every year to reduce risks of conflict between humans and tigers, which includes compensating farmers for livestock losses. This study gives science-based recommendations on where exactly the investment in conservation should go.
Improving the economy for local people can prevent tiger killing in areas with high conflict between humans and tigers. At the same time, conservationists can try to promote pro-conservation norms and reinforce local wisdom.
Fachruddin Majeri Mangunjaya received funding from UK Leverhulme Trust Research Project Grant for the research.

Steve says: "I work flexibly with three elements of the self – the social self, which includes our relationships and engagement with our human communities; our ecological self, which deals with our connection with the Earth; and our original 'soul' self, which includes our personality, calling and life direction. All three carry the potential for pain, problems and blockages, but also for development, growth, engagement and happiness.
Addressing all three dimensions is essential to living authentically in today's challenging, ever-changing world. We will all need to find courageous ways of surviving and thriving in times that are uncertain and challenging – to be, as Margaret Wheatley puts it: "Warriors for the human spirit"."

Bill BucySenior Associate
Bill Bucy's career in communications is a medley of journalism and business. As the San Francisco bureau manager for UPI during the deadly Loma Prieta earthquake, his team's coverage was compiled into a best-selling book. He acted as a company spokesman and senior executive ghost writer for two Fortune 500 corporations and used the skills he developed there to create sophisticated communications plans for numerous Silicon Valley companies needing coverage in both the technical and business media. Bill's work in daily journalism and in what he calls "the extreme reaches" of technology fostered an ability to find stories where others can't and find messages that others miss. An example: He once worked with a company that created computer microprocessors using software alone. He posited the company really made nothing, sold it for a great deal of money and then charged its customers a fee for each time the "nothing" was placed in a computer system. Accurate, if less than complete, the description gained the attention of reporters at a number of major publications, including the Wall Street Journal. Almost as important are Bill's writing skills. He was first paid for his writing at age 20 and every job and step in his career relies on his ability to communicate ideas through words. He can describe how plastic can be created from air and paper from rocks. He can tell a story about a lost whale – a tale that once intrigued people around the world.Bill's writing will make sure your story connects with the people who need to hear it.

Earlier this year, EPA announced a new initiative under the Green Power Partnership: the On-site Renewables Challenge. The Partnership is tracking all Partners' annual combined on-site renewable energy use, updated quarterly. As part of the Challenge, EPA invites Partners to increase the amount of energy they produce and use from on-site renewables by the end of the decade.
Currently, more than 250 Green Power Partners are using more than one billion kilowatt-hours (kWh) of on-site green power annually. The Challenge aims to double this amount to two billion kWh by the end of 2020. And, we need your help to get there!
We want to hear about what your organization is planning in terms of launching or expanding your on-site green power use. Are you adding solar panels to your facilities? Have you set a goal to produce a percentage of your electricity use from on-site resources?
Partners that have made tangible commitments to increase the deployment of on-site renewable energy systems by 2020 are featured on our website. And, we plan to highlight Partners' on-site green power commitments in our upcoming monthly Program Updates. If you have news to share, please contact Mollie Lemon, Partnership Program Manager, at firstname.lastname@example.com by September 5.
If you're not already a Partner, we invite you to join us today!
For more information on the On-site Renewables Challenge, please visit: epa.gov/greenpower/initiatives/onsite_challenge.htm
Since 2001, EPA's Green Power Partnership has worked with businesses, local and state governments, schools, NGOS and Federal agencies to expand the use of clean, renewable energy. More than 1,300 Green Power Partners are currently purchasing more than 28 billion kWh of green power annually, which has the equivalent impact of avoiding the carbon dioxide emissions from the electricity use of more than three million homes each year.

While reading is a solitary pursuit, talking about books with others and listening to book discussions with authors adds a social element to an already healthy activity. Belonging to a book club can help you build relationships with others, while reading more deeply and committing to a reading goal.
Especially as we age, maintaining social connections like those which joining a book group provides, is beneficial to your health. Scientific research shows that increased in-person engagement with others — whether it's a chat over coffee or catching up with friends — provides both mental and physical health benefits.
Numerous research studies point to the specific benefits of reading as an activity:
- Increasing your vocabulary
- Improving your attention span
- Gaining greater brain connectivity
- Lowering your chances of getting Alzheimer's disease
- Increasing your empathy for others, becoming open to different perspectives
- Reducing stress
For example, scientists at Mindlab International at the University of Sussex in the U.K. found that reading for only six minutes a day lowered stress by up to 68%.
And yet nearly one-fourth of American adults (24%) say they didn't read a single book in 2017, according to the Pew Research Center. The numbers are worse, the older you get: "Some 28% of adults ages 50 and older have not read a book in the past year, compared with 20% of adults under 50."
At the other end of the spectrum are the particularly passionate readers who belong to book clubs. More than half of American adults (57%) who read more than one book each year belong to a book club, according to a survey by BookBrowse.com. Participation in book clubs increases with age, according to the BookBrowse survey, in part because empty nesters and retirees have more time, want to connect with others, and like the intellectual challenge of belonging to a book club.
Joining a book club typically doesn't require you to pay any fee. In fact, if your group chooses books with multiple copies available from the public library, you don't even have to pay for the books. Otherwise, you may need to spend a little money on purchasing the reading material. Some book clubs deliberately pick older books that are available used or in paperback versions.
Finding a Book Club
While there are plenty of established book clubs, both in person and online, it's not always easy to find one that meets your expectations. Some people like to belong to a group with people they already know, while others seek to meet new people through a book club. Groups can be organized by gender, age, or interests, or can be open to anyone. One-third of book club members belong to more than one book club, according to the BookBrowse survey.
If you don't know of an existing book club, you can start your search by checking with your library system or a local bookstore. Many offer several book clubs that meet at different times and have different themes. You can search on Meetup.com for local groups. Some groups are formed at community centers and neighborhood clubhouses or through a local online newsletter. The Women's National Book Association supports book clubs and sponsors literary events around the country.
Online-only groups are also an option, although they don't carry the benefit of meeting people and interacting in person. However, discussing books online still offers intellectual stimulation, plus the opportunity to virtually meet people from a broader geographical area or with specific reading interests. You can find online groups on Goodreads.com and on BookBrowse.com.
Before you join a book group, think about what you would like to get out of it and whether you would like the group to have a particular focus. For example, some book clubs choose to read only books on The New York Times' Notable Books list or just Russian literature or only science fiction.
You can contact the librarian, book store, or leader of a book club to find out more about how often they meet and to see if the group would be a good fit for you. Ask if you can attend a meeting as a guest before committing to become a member.
Founding a Book Club
If you don't find a book group you want to join, or you just want to start your own with a few people you know who love to read, you'll need to make some decisions about how to organize the group, such as:
How many members you want. Typically, you want at least four to five people to regularly attend, but you can go as large as 20 if you have someone who can lead the discussion.
When you want to meet. While many groups meet in the evening, a daytime meeting can work well for a group with flexible hours or who are retired. It's best to schedule the same day and time each month or week or bimonthly so everyone can put it on their calendar. Even with a standing date, it's helpful to have someone designated to email reminders of the meeting and the book to be read.
Where to meet. Ideally, you want a place that's quiet enough for a discussion and yet allows groups to meet. Some local coffee shops and libraries work well and so do community centers or rooms at universities. Many groups meet at someone's home — either the same person's home every month or rotating among the group's members.
Food and drink options. If you're hosting book club meetings in someone's home, it's a good idea to set guidelines. Some book clubs love to make food that fits with the book being discussed, while others want to go simple with just dessert and coffee, or perhaps wine and cheese, depending on the time of day. Keeping it simple means you're more likely to find people willing to host.
Deciding What to Read
Whether your book club prefers fiction, nonfiction, or a mix of both, BookBrowse's survey found that most book club members identified these four factors as important to a good book choice:
- The book should be well-written and successful with other book groups.
- The book should be in a different genre than recent choices but still enjoyable for the group members.
- The book should be challenging and provoke good conversations.
- The book should be inspiring, topical, and even a little bit controversial.
Fiction tends to be the most popular, with 70% of book clubs reporting to BookBrowse that they read primarily fiction and occasionally add in a nonfiction selection.
If you're setting up your own book club, one of the most important elements is to decide how the books will be chosen. Some book clubs have one meeting to choose the books for the rest of that year. Members can have a formal vote or an informal discussion about which ones to choose. Other groups have each month's host choose the book. If you have a group leader or meeting facilitator, that person may want to either choose the books or offer a list of preferred books from which the group can choose. You may want to choose slightly older books that are available at the public library or in paperback to help keep costs low for your group members.
Numerous resources are available to help you select books, including newsletters you can sign up for, sites such as Goodreads.com, your local librarian, bookstores, book reviews in magazines and newspapers, and personal recommendations from friends and book group members.
According to BookBrowse, about 80% of groups read local authors at least occasionally and invite them to join their book group in person or via Skype. Many authors — especially local ones — enjoy the opportunity to talk about their work and to sell more books, so they will typically make arrangements to participate if asked. Authors tend to have pages on Amazon or their own websites that will provide their contact information or that of their publishers.

- ReadingGroupGuides
- LitLovers

Tips for a Good Book Discussion
Some book groups last for decades and the enthusiasm among members never wanes, while others flounder without a good structure for the meetings. It's easy, particularly if your book group includes your friends, to become a social group that rarely talks about a book. That's fine if that's what everyone wants, but it can be frustrating to those who joined the group for in-depth literary discussions.
One way to avoid misunderstandings is to establish a structure in the beginning and a few rules, such as how often people can miss meetings, expectations for reading the book before gatherings, and even a timeline for the meetings. Some groups like to build in 30 minutes of social time while everyone gathers and then set aside one hour or more to focus on the book. Others like to start the meeting with the book discussion and allow for socializing afterwards.
If your discussions are stale or you are preparing to start your book club, try these ideas from LitLovers submitted to ILoveLibraries.org:
- Try a literary game as an icebreaker, particularly if your members don't know each other well. For example, have everyone name as many authors as they can whose last names (or books whose titles) begin with "D" or try warming up with charades based on favorite literary characters.
- Start with a general question — such as an overall reaction to the book or to name a favorite character or scene — and ask anyone in the group to comment.
- Bring in some type of visual or audio item related to the book, such as a map, photos, or music, to start the conversation or offer inspiration.
- Write questions — about the book's plot or main characters — on index cards and distribute them to members. Have each member (or a team of members in a larger group) answer them.
- Have a quote or an idea from the book ready and ask members to comment on it.
- Choose a character and ask for comments on the character's motivations or actions.
- Consider providing handouts with character names or a plot summary, particularly if you're discussing a long, complex book with numerous characters.
- You may also want to suggest that your book club members take some notes as they read or flag passages they find interesting or want to discuss. A little preparation can go a long way to make your book club even more valuable and enjoyable.
Whether you already love to read and want to broaden your choice of books, you're looking for a new way to build relationships with your friends and neighbors, or you want to meet new people, a book club can stimulate your mind while you have fun.
Let's spark some ideas for book club members…leave a comment below with the name of your favorite book.

How do we configure the app to send mail through Microsoft Exchange?
Your Exchange server should have SMTP enabled (on port 25 or 587). Most email servers either accept mail based on the source IP address (i.e. if it's coming from the local network then it's okay to relay) or by a login and password. If it's just by IP address all you need to do is configure the GRA to use that IP address and port. If it's by login and password you'll need to specify those as well. You can go through the initial setup or edit the
Web.config file manually to make the necessary changes (let me know if you need help with that).
Thanks @harald. That wasn't actually me who wrote the question so I'll pass along and get back to you. Everything else was a breeze to set up, so after a long troubleshoot session we just skipped the mail test and continued on.
Fair enough. There's no pretty UI for configuring mail after the initial setup (another feature to add!) but it can be changed in the
Web.config with a text editor (such as
notepad.exe) as needed.
Thanks! That's good to know.
Since we've moved this in-house, this is the first time I'm seeing any database stuff on my end. Specifics on what to change in web.config would be awesome!
See if this helps !

Italian authorities have arrested six suspects who allegedly received orders from ISIS to attack the Vatican and the Israeli embassy in Rome.
The arrests made in Lombardy and Piedmont were the result of a joint operation coordinated by the district attorney of Milan and the Italian anti-terrorism agency.
According to the Italian news agency ANSA, authorities arrested Abderrahim Moutaharrik and his wife, Salma Bencharki; Abderrahmane Khachia, and three people who have maintained contact with a couple that left Italy to join ISIS in Syria. All of the suspects are of Moroccan origin.
A warrant has been issued for the couple, Mohamed Korachi and his Italian wife, Alice Brignoli, who are believed to have left for Syria in 2015.
Authorities monitored a series of conversations between the suspects via WhatsApp. One of the messages sent to Moutaharrik said: "Dear brother Abderrahim, I send you … the bomb poem … listen to the sheik and strike," ANSA reported.
Milan prosecutor Maurizio Romanelli told reporters that authorities believe the word "sheik" is a reference to ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. He also said the messages, intercepted in February and March, mentioned a strike against the Israeli embassy as well as against pilgrims in Rome for the Year of Mercy.
"I swear I will be the first to attack them in this Italy of crusaders, I swear I'll attack it, in the Vatican God willing," a message from one of the arrested suspects stated, according to ANSA.
Vatican spokesman Fr Federico Lombardi expressed his confidence in the current security measures in place for the Holy Year.
"The preventative security measures in place to protect pilgrims during the Jubilee year are serious and functioning properly, as everyone can see and have witnessed. Therefore, there appears to be no need to modify them," he told the Catholic News Service.

U-20 Women's World Cup: Can Nigeria and South Africa be shocked?
Since the launch of the Fifa U20 Women's World Cup in 2002, Nigeria and South Africa are few of the leading nations to have reached the final round of qualifiers in Africa.
Both nations have enjoyed outright superiority, accounting for their strength, decades of development and indeed their popularity in the women's game.
However, their shaky first leg performance in their quest to qualify for ninth edition billed for France indicates an improved level of competition among women on the continent.
While impressive Ghana looks destined to reach the final round with Kenya 5-0 hammering, South Africa's bid to advance hang in the balance after 2-0 defeat in Burundi at Prince Louise Rwagasore Stadium.
The absence of captain Linda Mothlalo and Lalona Dakweti plus defensive errors were the southern Africans' greatest undoing in the loss.
Nomsa Mahlangu, the Chairperson of SAFA Competitions Committee looked dazed by Basetsana's slight setback, attributing their first leg travail to the unavailability of key players, but is confident they can still overturn the deficit.
"I'm surprised but not shocked because women's game is growing across the continent. This is when you play and anyone can win," Mahlangu told Goal.
"I believe that South Africa can comeback notwithstanding the ability of their opponents. As you are aware some of the regulars were missing in the first leg thus the second leg is an opportunity for both players and technical team to give their all.
"Unfortunately, I did not watch the first leg, thus my comment is only based on what I read about Burundi. The chances are 50-50% for any of the two teams."
In Nigeria's case, it is the first time in the qualifying series' history that her U20 women side had recorded a stalemate outside the country after a 1-1 draw in Morocco at Stade Boubker Ammar.
Before the encounter, the Falconets had never lost a match in the qualifiers, playing 38 games winning 36 and only drawing two - confirming their unrivaled supremacy in Africa.
Moses Bako, a Nigerian women's football advocate blamed the team's late arrival to Morocco and bad weather for their disappointing first-leg but believes they can triumph in Benin.
"It was sad we drew in the first leg match. We should have won in Morocco if the Nigeria Football Federation had taken the logistics seriously," Bako told Goal.
"The weather in the region is bad and the Falconets only left here on Friday morning to play on Sunday. Such arrangement for the girls was bad. Sadly, we have forgotten that Morocco have worked hard to upset Nigeria.
"I also heard that the Moroccans are good but I know some good players were missing from our team but are now back. So, I expect us to win playing in Benin."
With the second leg ties around the corner, South Africa U20 women head coach Maud Khumalo will be relying on the return of key players to turn the table around against the east Africans.
"We have a lot of work to do in preparation for this match. The trip to Burundi gave us an even clearer picture of what we are up against and now it is for us to give it our all and fight for a place in the next round of the qualifiers," said Khumalo.
In Benin, coach Christopher Danjuma, who was without the services of Florence Ijamilusi and Charity Reuben in Morocco, will have them back for the showdown with the north Africans.
Regardless, the question begging for an answer is whether the African football powerhouses have all it takes to avoid upset at the Dobsonville and Samuel Ogbemudia stadia.
Well, we will confirm in few days time.

Event Title: Information Security in the Information Age
Date: Thursday, May 3, 2018 7:00AM-9:00Am
Location:Junior League of Houston (811 Briar Oaks Ln, Houston, TX 77027)
Panel Discussion: The Impact of Information Security on your Business
Panel (shown in image Left to Right)
Brian Wagner – Managing Director, Security Practice, Genuent(Moderator)
Martin Littmann – Chief Technology & Information Security Officer, Kelsey-Seybold Clinic
Gabriel Montague – IT Security Manager Retail, Information Security and Compliance, NRG
Pierluigi Stella – Chief Technology Officer, Network Box
Chris Lanier – Director, IT Security, Stage Stores
I made my way out of the house earlier than usual—no time to fry eggs for my wife or make oatmeal for my son, customary most mornings. It was peaceful having very little traffic at 6:30 a.m. as I took the beautiful drive across the River Oaks area of Houston. I rode in silence, window down, never over 40 mph the whole way. Instead of finishing a podcast or listening to music, I decided to think.
I was heading to a panel that was squarely in my industry as an IT consultant, hosted by the Houston Business Journal. The event had a lot of potential. So, on my drive, I thought about what I might want to get from it and the knowledgeable panelists and networking opportunities sure to be available. I decided I would speak with as many people possible in advance of the event, and take copious notes as to what the panelists said, why they said it, and how it made me feel. I also decided that I would meet with each panelist afterward and share my thoughts.
The Houston Business Journalnormally does a great job with these events, and this was no exception. It was fully staffed, well-staged, and professionally filmed. The event was hosted in the beautiful Junior League ballroom and there was ample room to take notes at each seat. The breakfast buffet was modest, but the coffee was hot (and I really wasn't there for the food).
The event started promptly. We were greeted with a brief introduction from the Houston Business Journal Market President & Publisher Robert Charlet and a quick word from the event sponsor President & CEO Kip Wright. Within just a few minutes, the panel was underway.
Brian Wagner is the Managing Director of the Security Practice from headline sponsor Genuent. He maintained continuity through his prepared questions and jumped right in with his own commentary.
Early discussion touched on the types of data most targeted, Pierluigi Stella attempted to contrast banking to healthcare, suggesting that criminals don't care if he had surgery, so why would they want his data? It was a great moment to notice Martin Littmann preparing his best response. I was surprised, since the value of health records on the dark web is significantly higher than other forms of personal information.
Littmann cited the fact that healthcare records can be used again and again for fraudulent activity. His example hit home when he asked the audience if they had ever filled a prescription for someone. About half the room admitted it and that they needed very little to no identification. This was a clear example of how information is used to defraud insurance companies.
Chris Lanier gave the retail perspective, saying that loyalty programs with store credit cards that have very little regulation were ripe targets for hackers to get personal information like social security and birthdates.
Gabriel Montague transitioned nicely to his own unique segment of retail, energy, informing us that, through customer credit checks, they have access to sensitive client data. He became more serious, quieting the room with the thought of nation-states hitting the grid after accessing load info and data, causing brownouts. After, he half-jokingly discussed the potential for a cyber-apocalypse while discussing what might create mass organizational agreement on how to regulate cybersecurity.
Chris Lanier then shifted the discussion to which security tools should be in place, saying, "Compliance does not equal security, [that's] where retailers get in trouble. Being compliant is not enough." The group agreed, when discussing security, that tools alone don't breed protection because a company is made of humans—and a human is the greatest vector for attack.
Lanier revealed some statistics to suggest that his industry in particular, is under budgeted and understaffed, saying that overall IT spending in most organizations is 7.2% of budget while in retail it is only 1.6%. IT headcount budget in the financial sector is 10% of the overall budget—in retail it's 2.5%. Further, 12% of IT budget in most organizations is spent on security, however in retail, the industry most often in the headlines for cybersecurity, spending is 3 to 5%! Lanier concluded that the information security workforce is untrained, underpaid, and has negative unemployment. (I couldn't help but recognize that leaves a vacuum for consultants like us, NocserV!)
Littmann began by discussing the culture of information security. He suggested that security has to be a philosophy embedded across an organization and that, where IT has Silos that compete for budget dollars, it should start with application development with security in mind. It's a combination of people, processes, and tools (and tools are the least most important).
As the discussion went into how many manhours in cybersecurity is reactionary vs proactive it quickly turned into a discussion about outsourcing some security functions to vendors. Naturally this discussion was lead by the one vendor on the panel Pierluigi Stella of Network Box. "Delegating part of your security to a reliable vendor – call it TCO or ROI? [cost] will scare CFO, it will be a cost that will give you a return. Effectively the justification becomes if you don't get attacked, you are out of the papers — your neighbor [competitor] who was in the paper got gobbled up. So the [return] isn't as strong with these solutions. " Said Stella. He continued, "Your livelihood is on the line but at the same time you can only invest so much cleverly stating if you are trying to protect a $20k house you don't buy a $100k gate" And lastly Stella assured them it is still their risk, "Even if you have a third party — customer still blames you when there is an incident involving their data."
One of the more interesting discussions was around measuring a security program's success. Littmann suggested that the level of trust and support is paramount, and that metrics should represent both tangibles and intangibles, or everything we block to keep clients out of the headlines and maintain good reputations. Metrics can also be monetized regarding the cost of downed systems. The practical education of the workforce regarding cybersecurity and real results from phishing tests are also clear demonstrations of success (or failure).
The discussion shifted to communication with the board of directors. It was suggested to hire a board proxy company who can assign simple cybersecurity grades like A, B, or C. It was clear that this was an area that struck a chord with Lanier. According to him, boards don't care about tech metrics, and the panel all nodded in agreement. He suggested that the security industry needs to tell better stories about security, like defense and depth layering technology. Even if we can't provide numbers, what's the story behind the security and who can develop it? He went on to say that every tool has an executive-level report on it, but while they remain metrics-based, execs won't get it.
Littmann explained that, when communicating to the board as the leader of company information security, he has to be vulnerable and willing to expose the gaps existing within and around security programs. Then he explains how he will fill those gaps to accomplish those means.
Another panelist suggested that the way to communicate security investments is to position them as another form of insurance. All businesses buy risk insurance, and outlay that as protection, including future revenue protection.
The last major point discussed was the fact that human error is the cause of most security issues. So, is the end user the enemy? Stella made a great analogy that resonated with the panel, and the Houston crowd especially, that security needs to be in culture, like safety is in oil and gas. He referred to times when he had visited refineries in his career and safety posters and signs are everywhere at the facilities.
Litmmann offered that the end user is usually just someone trying to do their job. Security must be a priority—as security professionals we need to reinforce the fact that everyone has a role in maintaining good cybersecurity. The panel seemed to agree that it was about communication, telling the stories about data breaches and explaining the need for tools like multifactor authentication and phishing email exercises.
Gabriel Montague emphasized that developing personal relationships with his end users can really make the difference. Most training is boring, and professionals should try to engage end users, for example, by playing cartoons people can relate to instead of providing tedious reading material.
Lanier joked that if a user fails a phishing test, he fires them on the spot. In reality, he has in-house security training and development modules. Interestingly, Chris commented on the frontline employees at the Stage Stores retail locations. They can be some of the most important defenders against cybercrime, however, high turnover, low motivation, and lack of adequate time in training mean they are often ineffective. So, Chris set up micro-training, or learning for 3 to 5 minutes every quarter, emphasizing fun, interesting, and engaging videos.
If the goal of the event was to further the discussion and provoke new ideas about information security, it was a success. At the event's closing, I spent a few minutes with colleagues talking about the content and then found the opportunity to speak further with the panelists. I had a great discussion with Chris Lanier about a service I had been contemplating that would help security leaders illustrate risks to the boardroom through effective storytelling and marketing. He liked the idea and we agreed to stay in touch. I left the event with a renewed purpose, as one of the good guys in the fight against cybercrime. I definitely recommend these panels by the Houston Business Journal, they were top notch!

A great deal of hard work no doubt went into establishing your business in Rockville. The same might be said of your marriage. Your concern for the former will doubt then be affected by the dissolution of the latter. You may question why your soon-to-be ex-spouse is able to profit off of your business when you were the one to establish it. Yet it should be remembered that per Section 8-201 of the Maryland Code detailing Property Disposition in Divorce and Annulment, a marital asset is defined as any that you acquire while married. While your business as a whole might not meet this criteria, any interest it gained while married would.
How is that interest determined? Say you owned one location before you were married, and then expanded to five during your marriage. The court may then determine that 80 percent of your business' value is subject to property division. How much of that interest your ex-spouse will be entitled to depends largely on his or her actions related to the company's growth, such as if he or she helped finance your business' expansion, or whether he or she participated in its daily operations.
When valuing the interest in your business to be divided amongst you and your ex-spouse, the court will seek to determine its fair market value. This is typically done by bringing in an investor or other professional in your particular field and seeing what he or she would pay for the determined interest.
There may be ways for you to retain the value of your business in its entirety. Most will, however, require you to relinquish your claim to other marital assets in order to convince your ex-spouse to give up his or her interest in your company.


text: Sveiny 1 Report post Posted November 3, 2019 Hello Jennasoft, I have noticed at some taxiways, for example J at the southside of the south terminal with stands 28, 24, 22, 20 ect. There is issues that it thinks you're on grass and not concrete. So therefore you require a lot of power to move and the aircraft bounces more then. So I was wondering if you guys can go over your scenery and make sure it is actually concrete where it is suppose to be. It would also be nice if you guys could take a look at the trees on your scenery! Their green colour is really vibrant and druing all other sceasons than summer it looks kinda wired. Along with the Runway texture, it seems to be to be a little bit to dark from what it is in real life. Otherwise an amazing scenery, and I am really looking forward to the 1.1 update for P3Dv4. The new 3D grass on the previews also seems to be a little bit to bright like the trees. So maybe these should be a little bit darker. Thank you for the attention! Hopefully you can look into these "issues" i've brought up before the 1.1 release. Best regards, Sveiny Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Dark Side of Meals
Does your couch look more appealing after having a large meal? If it does, you are probably going through postprandial somnolence, widely known as food coma.
According to Nutrition and Psychology expert David Levitsky, drowsiness is caused by redistribution of blood flow from the brain to the intestinal vessels after a meal. "The rest and digest (parasympathetic) system are activated when you eat, but the extent to which it induces sleepiness depends on the magnitude of the meal."
The odds of getting a food coma also depend on the type of food consumed. Dr. William Orr and his colleagues found that a solid meal creates more sleepiness compared to liquid meals. This is because liquids and solids activate different parts of the stomach and stimulate different parts of the brain. Liquids are processed in the upper section of the stomach (fundus) whereas solids are processed in the lower section (antrum). "It is more likely that the antrum has connections in the brain that are prone to induce sleepiness", he added.
"It is theoretically possible that after eating a large (protein-rich) meal, you may feel more tired," Levitsky said. Proteins delay gastric dumping, causing the food and its surrounding blood supply to remain in the stomach for longer hours. A similar case can be made for fat, which also takes longer time to digest.
There is a longstanding belief, propagated by popular media, that turkey possesses an exceptionally high amount of tryptophan, the culprit in the post-meal doze. But this is not true given that turkey does not contain a significant amount of tryptophan compared to other meats. While tryptophan does induce drowsiness, it does not typically have that effect when consumed as part of a meal.
Rather than tryptophan, insulin is the key. This hormone is produced to help moderate blood sugar, which spikes after a meal. The larger the meal, and the more carbohydrates and proteins it contains, the higher the blood sugar spikes. As a result, more insulin is produced. This, however, is not limited to sugar. Many of these insulin receptors are in the hypothalamus, a region of the brain controlling various aspects of the nervous and endocrine systems.
Circadian rhythms contribute to food comas, too. In our bodies, there is a normal decrease in arousal that occurs in the early to mid-afternoon, a biological phenomenon that contributes to sleepiness and is compounded by eating a meal. "The natural biological clock that induces sleep happens at 2:00am to 4:00am and again between 2:00pm and 4:00pm in the case of adults. The transition occurs during teenage years, which tend to disturb the sleep patterns initially," Orr explains.
What else induces post-meal sleep?
Energy expenditure: An appreciable amount of energy is spent in an attempt to metabolize the food. This may give a feeling of laziness and sleepiness especially when high-calorie foods are consumed, as it requires higher energy expenditure to support the process of digestion. However, when you experience extreme fatigue and symptoms like diarrhea or constipation, it's best to consult a physician as these can be indicators of other health issues.
Psychological impact: A large sit-down meal is often the end point of a day's work, a time to take a break, or the capstone of a holiday celebration or gathering. This deceleration contributes to a psychological effect that makes you feel more listless or tired.
Body composition: Recent evidence shows that obese individuals experience more sleepiness (tiredness) than normal weight individuals.
Alcohol: If the meal has a place for some alcohol, it could lead to headaches, dizziness, confusion, and sleepiness. This is a short-term result, however.
More than drowsiness, heart attacks has been estimated to occur four to seven times higher in people who consume heavy meal. Studies suggest that fatty dinners may lead to blood clotting more easily, which could explain the heightened risk of heart attacks, especially for people with high blood pressure.
Though a food coma may seem inevitable at times, these tips can help:
Eat small meals. The bigger the meal, the greater the chance you'll be drowsy. "We have to consciously put small amounts of food on our plates," said Levitsky. At lunchtime, small portions are especially important, because the lunchtime dip in arousal compounds the effects. "If I want to avoid postprandial sleepiness, I will have a light lunch," Orr said.
Have an early lunch. "If you eat at 1:00pm that's right at the time of the endogenous circadian dip," Orr said. It's better to eat an earlier lunch about 11:45am rather than a later lunch at, say, 1:00pm or 1:30pm, right when that dip occurs.
Choose liquids over solids. It does not mean lunch has to be limited to smoothies, though occasionally they're fine as a mini meal. "If you have a salad or a bowl of soup as opposed to a hamburger, or something with more of a liquid consistency, with higher water content, that is a better option," Orr said.
Opt for carbs that are low on the glycemic index (GI) over ones that are high. Low-GI carbs include whole wheat bread, oatmeal, beans, peas, most fruits and non-starchy vegetables. Limit white bread, white rice, bagels, pretzels, and crackers.
Grab a cup of coffee. "You can counter the effects of sleepiness after a meal by consuming caffeine," Levitsky said. A cup of coffee or cappuccino should suffice. Though caffeine can serve as a helpful stimulant, too much can lead to restlessness and can interfere with sleep later on.
Skip the wine and martinis. "Alcohol is a sedative, so this just adds to the drowsiness," Orr explained. If you enjoy a drink with a meal, choose dinnertime over lunch, and limit yourself to one beverage.
Take a brisk walk. This can help shift control away from the parasympathetic nervous system. Although it may feel burdensome to try any form of exercise while experiencing a food coma, exertion is one of the few ways that can consistently speed up recovery. If you feel cramping, though, stop and rest immediately.
A food coma, in and of itself, does not have side effects unless you fall asleep while driving or in a compromising position around friends with video cameras, markers, and some free time. However, the key thing to remember is that food comas are not supposed to be normal occurrences in a healthy diet.

Why Take Wedding Dance Lessons
We've all heard it before, dancing is what lights the spark and creates chemistry in a relationship.
Whether or not we have rhythm, there is something magical about moving together with another body to music, in each others' arms.
We all know about the endorphins that release when we hug.
It takes 15 seconds for them to manifest themselves and release in our bodies.
What does that say about dancing in each others' arms, if not for a 3 minute wedding song, the entire night?
That is where taking wedding dance lessons come in like Superman does, to save the day.
Taking wedding dance lessons is one of the best experiences in the engagement period.
It is a time when you have to face your fears and grow with your partner, trusting the process.
As a result, naturally you will grow together and bond on another level.
The extra cool thing about taking wedding dance lessons is your opportunity to be vulnerable to your partner.
You will make mistakes and you might feel like a total fool.
But owning it, being OK with that, and living through it is impressionable, bold and sexy to your partner, doing something you fear while holding your own is one of the most attractive qualities in any person.
Courage is amazingly attractive.
What better way to prove your courage than be open enough to learn how to dance.
When we are vulnerable, we let our true colors show, we are not hiding, and we can connect on a deeper level.
That is the miracle of wedding dance lessons.
Truth be told, a lot of us are daunted by dancing, and at that, taking wedding dance lessons and embarrassing ourselves is not on the top of the list.
I mean, we are talking about not only embarrassing ourselves in the lessons, but in front of our friends and families at the wedding.
Hence, we start out believing that there is no possible way we would ever be able to learn how to dance or get coordinated.
There is no light at the end of the tunnel, so to speak.
Not only is the fear of dancing scary, but the fear of not having the capacity to be "teachable" is even more embarrassing to our human-hood.
Perfection is at the top of the list when it comes to planning a wedding. Many people use the phrase "to plan a perfect wedding."
Why is it so important to be perfect, and what does it mean to have a perfect wedding?
If you ask me, the perfect wedding really lies in the perfect connection you have with your partner.
Weddings are such an integral part of many of our lives, but a lot of the time it is all surface.
Dancing is the key to body language communication, and starting off on the right foot is not a bad idea, as we all know how crucial first impressions are.
But let's get down to the bottom of it.
Why are Wedding Dance Lessons Important?
Things have changed with weddings over the years, but one thing stays the same: couples are always drawn to doing some sort of first dance… and rightly so!
It is definitely part of the wedding planning process!
Many couples want to look good on the dance floor and that is their motivation for taking wedding dance lessons.
Dancing Lessons will up your odds for looking spectacular out there and most definitely will help you gain confidence, making the whole ordeal less scary.
Whether you want to learn salsa, tango, swing or any other style of dance, taking wedding dance lessons is the secret tool for enjoying your first dance results.
Your commitment to getting some moves under your belt translates to a higher level of communication and interaction with your partner, ultimately improving your relationship.
It is important for you to be honest and find out what it will take to get your best game on.
The best way to achieve your first dance goals is by practicing more frequently with your partner before and after the wedding dance lessons.
A lot of couples want to add a little fun to their stressful wedding planning routine, so they make the evening into a much needed date night.
This is where investing your time gets put to good use and makes total sense.
What to look for in your wedding dance coach?
Do they concentrate on your fun experience or do they micromanage the lesson?
Your wedding dance specialist should teach you knowledge and skills, no doubt, however, the dance experience is also about de-stressing, having fun and connecting.
The goal with wedding dance lessons is to build confidence for the couples by guiding them through basic movements and making those movements feel good to them.
As a couple continues dancing, they will find blocks and patterns that they don't necessarily know how to work with.
Wedding dance lessons guide couples to be aware of their bodies and help create the vision for their first dance.
One of the most powerful tools we use with our couples is breaking down the information into bite size pieces.
This is perfect for guiding them to achieve the look they want for their dancing.
Our wedding dance specialists use a technique that quickly reveals simple strategies for surviving the dance floor.
Repetition gets the muscle memory triggered, and that is the key to dance lesson success.
Furthermore, wedding dance lessons are one of the most effective tools available today to deepen your relationship with your partner, and enhance romance in all areas of your relationship.
The effects of wedding dance lessons are truly meaningful and have lasting results.
For those new to dancing, there is evidence that it has been around for ages.
Today, dance lessons are used even in the professional an academic fields.
Dancing lessons engages both lobes of the brain and has even been proven to effectively ward off dementia and Alzheimer's.
Furthermore, dance lessons provide students access to a deeper self-awareness and self development of movement and confidence, and how to apply that in real life.
Dancing is a conversation between body and soul.
Dancing bonds two people together in a very special way.
When you dance with your partner, you are sharing your souls with one another.
There is no necessity for words or impressing your partner.
The main, key thing to successful dancing is awareness.
Awareness being present to your partner, to the moment you are sharing, to the unity both of you are entering, both symbolically and physically.
Giving the gift of presence to your partner is giving not only of yourself, which is the biggest gift, but also gives respect and honor to the one you love.
It's quality time and it's an expression of love – 100% attention on each other and the commitment you give each other, to make the conversation and relationship flow.
Release of Oxytocin
Moving together and dancing in close proximity is just like hugging and cuddling.
Dancing close, in each other's arms also releases oxytocin, the happy chemical which is released after a hug or cuddling session.
It is also called the "hug hormone" or "cuddle chemical" has a huge role in love.
Oxytocin has a huge effect on emotion, contributing to relaxation, trust and psychological stability, including reduction of stress.
Dancing also sets the mood for a very romantic night.
And there you go, the true value of wedding dance lessons.
If we admit it, weddings are a dream come true for many, but the dream is the deep connection we all strive for, not the perfect dress or perfect flower arrangement.
The perfect and complete love and bond we vulnerably give to each other that makes it a perfect day.
It's the perfect promise we stand for to be bonded with each other for each other, forever.

Review of Raven Stole the Moon part 2
My Thoughts on the Book:
I thought this book was very dry and boring with WAY too many words! I started this book over a month ago and am only on page 130 because it is so boring. I am writing this review without finishing it because it was too wordy and time consuming to finish. All that has happened to Jenna so far in this book is she has travelled back to Alaska to get herself together after freaking out at a party. If I did not recieve this book complimentary of a review, I do not think I would have picked it to read by myself, but I do not regret getting it. I like to expand my reading horizons past what I would normally read, and this book has done that for me.
I did however, like how, just like in the book Simply

Kuwait's Independent Petroleum Group Company (IPG) is among ten international firms, including Glencore, which have tendered to supply oil to Zambia for a period of two years starting this year, it was announced at the weekend.
Zambia in February invited tenders for the supply of 1.4m tonnes of oil after the expiry of a contract with Glencore under a two-year arrangement from March 2010.
Hazel Zulu, the Zambia Public Procurement Agency spokeswoman said Mercury Energy Trading, Agipol Africa Limited, Gunvor and Crown Hill Investments Limited had also put in bids.
Others also included KenolKobil, Trafigura, Vitol and Addax Energy, she told Reuters.
