Tips for a fresh – and refreshed – summer routine!
Heat wave alert! To make it through the dog days, binge-drink water – natural, sparking or flavored – enjoy your favorite tea "on the rocks," replace your morning coffee with a frappé and don't forget to carry a fan, the "coolest" fashion accessory around!
A freshly cut aloe vera branch helps soothe overheated skin… but it may not fit in your handbag. What's the plan B? Create a summer treatment ritual around a winter-fresh routine!
« All-day freshness »
In the morning, start by gently awakening the epidermis, ridding it of the impurities built up over the night… dead cells, sebum and other intruders. Aqua Falls cleansing water frees the skin of these imperfections, all with a fresh and pleasant sensation ideal for early-morning farniente.
Formulated with glacier water drawn from the Swiss Alps, Aqua Falls helps stabilize tissue exchanges, while its pre- and probiotic components balance the skin's microbiota.
Next, treat your skin with gel textures – fresher by nature! A little hydrating and anti-aging wonder, the irresistible Moisturizing Booster holds in its diminutive bottle a concentrate of hyaluronic acids of different molecular weights… that's right, the acid naturally present in the skin, so popular among surgeons and other aesthetic practitioners! Available in textured drops and a fresh gel, they offer hydrating and anti-aging benefits.
For the fragile area around the eyes, Moisturizing Eye C-Gel reveals its hidden talents: intense hydration and a visible re-plumping effect. This gel offers a rich concentration of triple DNA, famous for its unmatched hydrating properties, combined with silanol to boost collagen production and a selection of re-plumping sugars… all enhanced with hyaluronic acid. Captured in a gel that gently rouses the area around the eyes, it owes its freshness to a menthol derivative. Simply enchanting!
« Glacial purity »
After a full day – cavorting on the beach, lounging in the shade or simply indulging in some summer reading – there is nothing like the sensation of purity unique to Icy Falls: a next-generation cleanser with a soothing jelly texture that envelops the skin in blissful freshness! A generous jar containing an addictive formula, Icy Falls removes light makeup and works – like its cousin Aqua Falls – to balance the skin's microbiota. Offered in a larger size for the bathroom or a compact jar for sun-kissed excursions, this jewel of effectiveness can be used wherever summer fun takes you.
A cunning ritual to marvel at that naturally beautiful, fresh and rested reflection in the mirror.

Thulami Mtembu has worked at the Magwa Tea Estate for 33 years. It is more than a job for him.
"It's the smell.
The fragrant lime-green bushes stretch away to the horizon at the biggest tea plantation in the southern hemisphere. It is a deceptively tranquil scene. Magwa has been racked by strikes, violence and financial strife that have brought production to a standstill.
The crisis encapsulates South Africa's struggle to realise the potential of its wealth of natural resources. It is a story of low or unpaid wages, powerful unions, political inertia and allegations of financial mismanagement. It is a stark example of self-destruction.
The 1 800-hectare Magwa farm outside Lusikisiki in the Eastern Cape is blessed with an ideal climate and soil type for tea. At its peak five years ago it came close to profitability, producing 2.7-million tonnes of tea in a season. The farm employed 1 200 permanent and 2 300 seasonal workers.
Market decline led to the problems
But when the market shrank and the tea price declined, the problems began. The provincial economic development corporation stepped in and, despite emergency subsidies from the state, tension over wages erupted. The farm claimed its workers were the best paid in the industry, earning five times more than their counterparts in Malawi. But even today some still earn R1 100 a month, below the national minimum wage of R1 376 for farm work, according to Nkosinathi Mbolo, who is arbitrating between the management and employees.
Sweating in the afternoon sun, Vukile Jikwayo (51), a mechanic, said he earned R1 250 a month: "The money is too little—I have to buy food and educate five children. All we want is a better income."
From 2009 the workers rebelled against changes to their terms of employment. Labourers who pluck tea leaves and throw them over their shoulder into a backpack were told to increase their haul from 200kg to 253kg a day on the same pay, according to the Food and Allied Workers' Union.
Preferential treatment of workers
Then Magwa's management gave pay rises of 100% to some workers but not to others, the union claims. "This led to conflict among the workers. Management was selective in terms of compensation," said Mbalisi Tonga, the union's provincial secretary in the Eastern Cape. "The manager said he would reward, in his words, 'deserving cases'."
Tonga said there was further resentment when, to comply with the law, lunch breaks were extended from 30 minutes to an hour—but with a deduction of R6. "At that point, they unified the workers. The workers said we must fight and the strike started."
There was a strike in 2010 and again last year. What happened during the latter is bitterly disputed. Tonga claims picketing workers were beaten and arrested by police. Management accused the workers of a violent rampage in which shots were fired, buildings gutted and a security guard killed.
Mtembu, the estate manager, said: "The place was ruined. They burned all the houses, destroyed protective clothing and removed everything—furniture, ceilings, floors, windows.
It was a looting spree. The management ran away and it was a free-for-all. A security guard was killed and supervisors were severely beaten. Any manager present that day would have been killed too. It was workers versus management. Some of the workers themselves were beaten because they got caught off guard."
Magwa security manager Daan Schoeman was quoted by South African media last year as saying a manager called him with a desperate plea for help. "He said 'Help Daan, they're killing me', but I couldn't do anything. It was impossible to get in. They chopped him up with pangas but he made it out [alive]. One of the security guards, though, was shot dead. That day I started becoming an old man."
The union denies the charges. "From the information we got, there was no violence. We trust our sources because there were court cases. Complainants ... have not been able to sustain their claims in court," Tonga said. Asked about the death, he replied: "I have heard about it and some members were taken to court, but ... they were acquitted." The management used the strikes as a convenient excuse to flee, Tonga said. "As the management, you are supposed to take the responsibility and face it. What happens at Magwa is that if there's a strike, it's a holiday for management."
The general manager, Ian Crawford, left the estate in September last year. Attempts by the Guardian to contact him failed. Last month, speaking to the Financial Mail, he described Magwa as "a murky, messy scenario with politicians and other people ducking and diving" and said he was taking it to court for money he was owed. "Until the politics around Magwa is resolved and discipline is restored in the workplace, it will never recover," he said. "It's game over for a project that had huge potential to uplift poor people."
Crawford has been criticised by workers and the government alike. Ayabulela Ngoqo, spokesperson of the provincial department of rural development, said: "Mr Crawford was running Magwa like his own house. He was a man who could stop on the side of the road and sign a cheque. There was a revolt from the workers."
Other managers who had left the farm in February last year returned in November, too late to save the year's harvest. In some months workers went unpaid. "A whole season was lost, maybe about R30-million. Everything we are doing now is getting ready for next season. We talk to the workers but we don't talk about the past," Mtembu said.
An uneasy truce has been reached, with managers and workers in dialogue, though some managers remain off site. But a shortage of funds to invest in tractors, trailers, coal and diesel means that employees have been reduced to "piece work" of six hours instead of the standard nine. The fields are being maintained in readiness, but there is no guarantee of a harvest in September.
Machinery is lying idle. Inside giant sheds, rows of conveyor belts are standing still and tea-cutting equipment gathers dust. "This would normally be operating at full steam," said Mbolo. "But there is a shortage of coal and parts."
So the paralysis continues. "As far as production is concerned, there is nothing happening. We don't have funds to buy coal or diesel. We have made requests to the government. It did promise R20-million to assist with the planting, but sometimes politicians make promises and don't cover all the costs," Mtembu said.
"There is no pay rise. We cannot predict another strike. If the workers want to do those things, they'll simply do them. If they want to resort to violence, they'll resort to violence. It depends on the quality of the union leadership."
But Mtembu is optimistic that South Africa's last tea plantation can be saved. "I would not have come back if I did not feel the company has potential. There's no point sitting at home with so much knowledge; let me assist. The company was once a star and can be a star again."
Ngoqo said the government was still working on a rescue package. "The department is trying to source funding so the farm can be running smoothly and undertaking harvesting. We don't want the people to lose their jobs."
Until then Magwa is left clinging to past glories. Tonga reflected: "Twenty years ago they got a trophy from France for the best tea in the world. That trophy is not there now. I don't know if it got lost or burned down with the office."—

Liverpool Central station will not get a new lift to improve access until after 2019 - because of a lack of cash.
The decision to put the improvement project - part of the Access for All project - on hold was revealed in a letter from transport minister Paul Maynard to Riverside MP Louise Ellman, who chairs the Commons transport select committee.
Access for All is a major programme designed at improving accessibility at railway stations nationwide by installing lifts and ramps.
The planned work in Liverpool would have seen a new lift installed to platform level, not only for disabled people, but also people with children, heavy luggage or shopping, and some more elderly people.
Mrs Ellman said: "I am appalled by this decision. It is essential that everyone has proper access to Liverpool Central Station, a vitally important part of Merseyside's transport network."
Does Liverpool Central need a new lift?
My Maynard confirmed that "following Sir Peter Hendry's report on the Network Rail portfolio we have reluctantly decided to defer construction of the Access for All project until after 2019."
He went on: "This is an extremely difficult project because of the limited space for the lift to the underground station and potential dependencies with the redevelopment of the shopping centre above the station. Deferring the project will allow Network Rail to resolve these issues."
Sir Peter was asked to see what was "affordable and timely" in Network Rail's wider enhancement programme, but his report did not single out Liverpool. Ministers instead considered which projects should be delayed.
Mr Maynard said: "In selecting the stations that will be deferred we have looked at how far advanced the projects currently are, how likely they are still to be delivered as planned, and whether there is any third party funding that is at risk."
He said that he realised that the Liverpool Central delay would be "disappointing", particularly as the project has been delayed before, and said it had been an "extremely difficult decision."
He has asked Network Rail to carry on with development and design on the project so that it can go ahead "as soon as possible once more funding becomes available in 2019."

The sorrow and grief in the aftermath of the disaster seems to have enlivened a courageous spirit that brought communities
Wreckage of a car that was hit by a boulder inside the earthquake memorial museum in Wenchuan
At exactly 2:28:01pm on May 12, 2008, a sudden force shook the earth with such devastating force that it left little room for the people of Yingxiu town to make sense of the terror.
The small town in Wenchuan County, in China's Southwest province of Sichuan was right at the heart of an 8.0 magnitude earthquake that left at least 87,000 people dead or missing.
Huge boulders hurtled down the mountain slopes, cars got trapped along a busy highway and chaos stirred the quiet neighbourhood, displacing more than 4.8 million people.
A walk through the memorial hall located at the hillside of Yuziki village brings to light the devastation, captured in real-time footage, photos and simulated film.
Aircraft parts and flashing images on a giant screen inside the museum reveal faces of a crew whose helicopter crashed in the mountains during a rescue operation to find trapped survivors
A policeman rushing to help was crushed inside a small van, and the mangled wreck of a van in which he was travelling lies still inside the museum.
In a dimly-lit room, an elevated platform recreates the terror through sound and light effects panic while the platform sways and jolts and a 3D video takes the tourists back in time.
The Wenchuan earthquake was the most destructive and humanitarian relief challenge since the founding of the People's Republic of China.
Several strong aftershocks, landslides, mud-rock flows, quake lakes and inclement weather further complicated rescue and relief efforts.
At least ten other provinces, including neighbouring Gansu and Shaanxi suffered damage resulting from the earthquake and the tremors were also felt in Beijing and Shanghai.
Official records indicate that the earthquake created 104 dangerous barrier lakes, damaged 1996 reservoirs and created more than 6,000 geological disaster spots.
Estimates show that rebuilding Wenchuan cost about 884 billion yuan ($135b), which included putting up new homes and major transport lines around the affected areas.
Courage under ordeal
The sorrow and grief in the aftermath of the disaster seems to have enlivened a courageous spirit that brought communities together to rebuild a shaken dream.
Images of long lines of volunteers holding hands from stretching from up the mountains to the lowlands below are tale of an enduring spirit of sacrifice.
The major highway that was destroyed was rebuilt within months and outpouring of support from across China and all over the world was humbling.
New homes
Down below the hillsides of Yingxiu lies neighbouring Shuimo Town, a community of minorities that also suffered significant damage during the earthquake.
Although none of its residents was killed and about 30% of the homes were affected by the earthquake, the disaster somehow drew attention to their living standards.
Rows of neat homes surrounded by green have given new face to the community. Each of the families has a decent home, access to water and electricity and spacious gardens.
Not only have the urban centres been reconstructed but also the settlements have been modernized to create a harmonious living environment.
At least 200 similar eco-villages have been built around Wenchuan as part of the government's plan to fight poverty and provide decent living for all Chinese.
The earthquake site and reconstruction efforts around Wenchuan County have become an attraction for tourists visitng Sichuan from across China and all over the world.

It Was a Dark and Stormy Night
Learned Vol. 2, Issue 12
|Jun 17
It was a dark and stormy night.
Oh, god, what a cliche. And not just a cliche. I mean, overly dramatic, purple phrases like that one are a dime a dozen. They're as common and as smelly as day old horse shit and whenever possible you should avoid them like the plague...
Freshman year of high school I joined the nascent creative writing club. It was good. I met a bunch of like-minded weirdoes and learned a little about life, a little about love, and a lot about not being the smartest person in the room. I also learned about the dreaded cliche.
The first story I turned in started with "It was a dark and stormy night." More confused than anything else, our teacher asked why I had chosen that cliche to start with.
"I got it from a Snoopy comic." Specifically, this one:
Peanuts for July 12, 1965
Snoopy's stated ambition is to be the World's Greatest Novelist. The problem is, Snoopy's not that great a writer. In the beginning, in the sixties, Snoopy met with a bit of success, but as Schulz went through one of his black periods in the late sixties, several changes were made to the strip to make the characters into bigger losers. Charlie Brown didn't change too much, but everyone else started to be a bit more negative. And Snoopy started getting rejection notices.
Still, it's worth looking at why Schulz used this phrase - one that had just about faded into obscurity by the time he was writing in the '60s - to signify that Snoopy was not the greatest literary talent the world had ever seen. Looking back now, with the benefits of education and hindsight, it's easy to see how obnoxious the phrase is. It's often held up as an example of the worst sort of overly-descriptive sentence that does the exact opposite of "show, don't tell."
In fact, a host of negative descriptors are given to the sentence: florid, purple, overwrought, and, of course, cliche.
Cliches are one of the harder parts of any language, whether you're learning it as a second or third language, or just aspiring to be the greatest living writer working in it. Mainly because cliches are cliches for a reason. They are a colorful way of expressing a thought or idea that is so apt (for a given time and place) that they become over-used and stripped of their original impact.
Which is exactly why they're so useful: everyone understands them regardless of their relationship to the original circumstances that resulted in the phrases' coining. Conversely, you should never use them because they are so completely unoriginal. But, go too far in the other direction and no one knows what you're talking about. And so on and so forth.
But, back to Snoopy and my ninth grade efforts at writing. Like a lot of young writers, my work was really nothing more than cliches and just-barely-not-plagiarized ideas blended into a pastiche I tried to pass off as original. Such is life. However, those early efforts, combined with a friendly coach, got me past the worst of my bad instincts.
Not completely past them, mind you. In a later story, I inserted a sub-chapter titled, "A Digression."
"You're not really supposed to do that. Digressions are bad things."
"But Melville did it in Billy Budd..."
Cue a long discussion about changing times and fashions and knowing the rules before you can break them...
Originality is a dangerous concept. During my salad days, we took the view that anything not original was automatically crap. Nevermind the fact that there was, and is, very little original anything left anymore. The internet has changed that, I think. It's too easy to see the influences and thought-processes of creatives; it's too easy to see where the ideas come from and how the sausage is made.
As Mr. K used to tell me, "There are only four themes and twelve plots. Good luck being original." Of course, I later learned that he took that sentiment directly from Joseph Campbell, so there you go.
It is a (metaphorically) dark and stormy night. I have laundry to do. Bye.
"It was a dark and stormy night."
Although first used by Washington Irving in 1809, it wasn't until author Edward Bulwer-Lytton's used it as the opening line of his novel Paul Clifford that it became well-known. (Sources: The Phrase Finder, MPR News)
The full sentence, as per Wikipedia:
It was a dark and stormy night; the rain fell in torrents — except at occasional intervals, when it was checked by a violent gust of wind which swept up the streets (for it is in London that our scene lies), rattling along the housetops, and fiercely agitating the scanty flame of the lamps that struggled against the darkness.
And there you have it.

All in full working order Any additional information: Just wondering about the prices I could get for these servers, which were used in my homelab until recently, when I had to downsize.
Specs as follows: Machine 1: Feel free to make an offer and I will consider it. Hi there, longtime lurker first time poster.
ASUS AM1I-A, AM1, SoC Chipset, Mini-ITX
I've probem I'm trying to solve. So here's my setup: I havent used Kodi much but I think this awesome app might solve the problem.
Here's the setup Asus AM1I-A AMD Chipset thinking. Serenity was locked out of their M NH raid by Jadelolz and a friend not associated with either guild. They accomplished this by inviting a Serenity raider to group, then zoning into NH to snag the lock out.

When Serenity tried to enter, they kept being booted because their lockout was already in use. Jadelolz has since been removed from Method https: This has been confirmed https: I'd like to add a graphics card but it only has an x4 slot open in the back.
Would putting in a regular x16 length graphics card hurt the crunching performance? PCPartPicker part list https: Kabini Motherboards AM1I menu.

It consolidates all exclusive ASUS features into one simple-to-use package, allowing you to supervise overclocking, energy consumption, fan speeds, voltages and more. Thinking most office environments including my home would only be pulling small spreadsheet or Word Processor files from Asus AM1I-A AMD Chipset server.
On mine I might use two or three different workstations to also watch movies from the server. But that would not take much bandwidth.

I am sure there are users out there that may need more speed to do what they want to do. I could probably get by with a Mbps network to watch movies and all the other file needs. But back ups would be painfully slow.

Research Overview:
Aqueous fluids provide us with a geochemical window to observe the fundamental mechanisms that have driven dynamic processes in crustal, surficial, and atmospheric reservoirs both in the present and in the distant past. My research has focused on determining the elemental and isotopic composition of fluids and looking at how they are coupled with global processes such as climate change, weathering, tectonics, and marine carbon cycling. Specific areas of research interest are as follows:

This thread is being prompted by recent events, and reports I have been receiving about disagreements that members may have - between themselves and other members, or between themselves and the world at large. I've been meaning to issue an FAQ on this for some time, but up until now, there really has been no need.
So, without further ado:
Rule #1: www.EricsonYachts.org is non-commercial : This decision was made a long, long - long - time ago - and for very good reason. In a time when everyone and his brother is trying to sell you something and mine you for behavioral data - this site is going the other way. This site is simply about the Ericson line of sailboats, sailing, boating, growing old and having some community where little existed before. If I see/catch someone posting for obvious commercial purposes, I will bounce them faster than you can click your mouse.
Rule #2: www.EricsonYachts.org is apolitical : It's not because we don't all have political beliefs, but rather because we do all have political beliefs and often they vary widely among the 4,000+ members - so somewhere, somehow someone is going to get upset. Please do not engage in political discussion - there are thousands of websites made just for the purpose (try joining www.newsvine.com - and then comment on everything on MSNBC!) - so please utilize their facilities for it - not this.
Rule #3: www.EricsonYachts.org is non-religious : Yes, I know there is something mystical and wonderful and very spiritual about sailing - however some people also see a very technical side, while others see a very social side (I raise my hand here) , while others just use it as an escape. If you get closer to your God by sailing - great - I'm very happy for you - please keep it to yourself, and don't proselytize on the website - or I will bounce you faster than the ushers pass the plate in the Methodist Church (and yes, I know - I'm Methodist - so I'm entitled).
See? Only three rules! Basically, please don't freak people out, or make people angry - you don't like it when people do it to you - so please set an example for other members on the site, and help keep the peace.
Finally - www.EricsonYachts.org has "Reporting Capability" - which means that YOU can "report" any thread, or any user at any time. On each post has a little icon shaped like a caution sign (think of your hazard lights switch in your car - see the image below) - THAT is the button you use to report something you find offensive (and no - Craig is an outstanding individual who everyone thinks is just great - I just pulled this thread as an example - sorry Craig!).
What happens when YOU report someone? Well, for starters, it's anonymous to the general membership and we'll never mention anyone's name as having been involved.
The other, more important thing is that reporting a thread or a poster sends a message to all the moderators and to me, the administrator - and, it creates a thread in the EY.o Technical Staff forum - one of two management forums that you cannot see. That enables those of us who control the site to review the material and the message you have flagged and decide on some relevant action. Also - when you use the reporting system, it provides a link back to the item you're discussing, so we can see what you're talking about. When you report something/someone, you WILL hear from me - I promise.
So - a.) please to not try and make other users upset by discussing things like politics, religion or the New York Yankees - we all have enough problems to deal with. And b.) if YOU see something that YOU think is offensive - please bring it to our attention by using the reporting system - it helps all of us - believe me.
If you have any questions or concerns on these policies, please contact me via the "Contact Us" link below.

Every business relies on a collection of tools to achieve business goals. Paper, phones, and computers are just some of the tools you use every day to get things done. Business technology is another crucial tool for companies. Leveraging technology is more than simply purchasing the latest and greatest. You need the right tool for the job, one that aligns well with your business goals.
Top 3 Tech Tips to Grow Your Small Business
The widespread use of technology has changed the way we work, play, and everything else in our lives. But it's not just consumer habits that changed. Businesses today use more technology services than ever before. It has reached the point where technology can make or break a business.
Benefits of an Integrated Telecommunications Solution
More companies are using integrated telecom solutions than ever before. The keyword here is convergence with terms like triple play becoming common. Service providers are optimizing their offerings to fulfill several business needs at once.
Adapting to Evolving Business Needs
Service providers have to adapt their offerings to meet the needs of the market. Nowhere is this more relevant than in the business of voice communication. Business organizations have evolved quite a bit in the last few decades.
Cloud-Based Telecom Solutions Explained
Phone systems play a crucial role in any business, like IT and HR. It doesn't really matter what industry you work in or the size of your business. You need some form of a voice communication system. In the past, this meant landlines.
Managing a Service Provider Switch
In the year 2019, it's no longer a secret that VoIP can help businesses save money. The latest numbers show that small businesses can cut their bills by 50%-75%, thanks to VoIP [1]. The cost savings don't even take into account the additional benefits such as increased productivity and effective collaboration!
How Your Communication Service Can Impact Employee Productivity
If you have gone through job postings recently, you will have noticed a common factor. Practically every job in any field will list good communication skills as a requirement. There is a reason for this near-universal demand. Effective communication has a positive impact on employee productivity.
Using Telecommunications to Build a Community Company Culture
Building a great company culture is not easy. A solid sense of community can help you hire and retain motivated employees. Good company culture can also boost productivity and drive growth. It's no coincidence that some of the best places to work offer a great company culture.
Laval mayor visit
Connect it Networks was pleased to host Laval Mayor Marc Demers and his team on their recent visit to our New Head office at 4400 Rue Garand. The mayor and his team showed a lot of integrity and interest in helping the city further develop and remain a competitive choice for businesses.
Panduit Small Diameter Cabling
Small diameter cabling can make a BIG difference in telecom rooms when space is at a premium. At less than half the size of traditional cables, 28 AWG patch cords solve space challenges by increasing capacity and improving cable management.

Although we don't believe in timing the market or panicking over market movements, we do like to keep an eye on big changes -- just in case they're material to our investing thesis.
What: Shares of Boyd Gaming (NYSE:BYD) ran out of luck today, falling 19% after turning an ugly earnings report.
So what: The casino chain finished the quarter with an adjusted EPS loss of $0.08 per share against estimates of a penny profit. Sales also missed the mark, climbing 20.6% to $738.6 million, while analysts had expected $758.3 million in revenue. CEO Keith Smith admitted that Boyd's performance was below expectations, noting significant weakness in September that offset solid results in July and August. The market also reacted to disappointing guidance from the Borgata parent, which projected a loss of $0.15 to $0.20 for the current quarter. Analysts had been eyeing a shortfall of just $0.04.
Now what: Much of the growth in the casino industries these days can be found in Macau and Singapore, markets in which Boyd is not active. Smith did say that October results improved from a year ago, but the company seems to lack a long-term strategy for reversing the recent losses. The CEO noted better financials at some of the properties as well as entering real-money online gambling in New Jersey, but that doesn't seem like enough to justify the current stock price, which values the company of P/E above 40. I'd say Boyd's string of bad luck is far from over.

Words with Friends, Chess with Friends, Dice with Friends.. etc.. These are just a few of the (long) turn based style games that are super popular.
If SE could create a mode that would allow the user a long period of time to complete their turn... 12 hours for example... I think it would be great. You simply complete your turn, click end, and your opponent will have up to 12 hours to complete theirs... When it's your turn, you'll get a notification (if you prefer), you log in, click the unfinished game, and you'll see what the opponent did on their turn... And you'll have 12 hours to respond.. etc.. if you run out of time, you lose.
It could solve a lot of the tournament scheduling conflict we have trying to organize meetings when people have conflicting schedules or live in different parts of the world.
We are all busy... Imagine playing all 3 games of a best of 3 simultaneously... and you can play at your convenience... Only a few mins at a time... Instead of dedicating 1 hour+ of your day

Chapter I
Research Background
Teachers are educators that teach us what we must learn. They are one of the most inspiring people not only in school but also within our nation. They help us to achieve our goals and dreams in life, and the ones who shape every person's character. We consider them as our second parents who guide and lead us to the right path. And it truly proves that all educators are such a magnificent person.
According to Benito (2000), the best hope for education lies with the teacher; his education is of primary importance. She explained that the quality of education the teacher has to transmit to his students largely depends on the quality of his ...view middle of the document...
Whenever teachers do unnecessary things in front of his class, different perception can be form in the mind of his students. The gender of the teacher can be also one of the factors. The physical appearance of the educators and how he or she treats his students can also affect the way of a student.
Teachers have an important role in classroom communication, classroom behaviour management, and the achievement of teaching aims. The influence of teacher's attitudes inside and outside the class on students' academic success was determined freely through student observation and student opinions(Journal Articles; Reports - Research).
According to Thomas S. Dee, when a class is headed by a woman, boys are more likely to be seen as disruptive. When taught by a man, girls were more likely to report that they did not look forward to a subject. Some theories suggest that much depends on the gender of the teacher. One theory asserts that the teacher's gender shapes communications between teacher and pupil, while another says the teacher acts as a gender-specific role model, regardless of what he or she says or does. According to this second theory, students are more engaged, behave more appropriately, and perform at a higher level when taught by one who shares their gender.
The attitude of the student or how he/she behave in class most likely depends on how teachers manage his/her students. How the students learn depends on how the teachers speak or communicate in front of his/her class.
Some Researchers have consistently found that "girls are more concerned than boys are with pleasing adults, such as parents and teachers" (Pomerantz, Altermatt, & Saxon, 2002, p. 397). Most boys, on the other hand, will be less motivated to study unless the material itself interests them while girls tend to look on the teacher as an ally. Given a little encouragement, they will welcome the teacher's help.
Research on gender-related perceptions found that females at the both primary and secondary levels viewed their teachers as more dominant and more positive and cooperative than do males (e.g., Goh& Fraser, 1995; Rickards& Fisher, 1997; Levy et al., 1992, 2003; Rickards, 1998; Waldrip& Fisher, 1999; Wubbels& Levy, 1993). And there is a clear relationship between student's beliefs and their perceptions of teacher's communication patterns (Predicting students' perceptions of Science teacher, pg. 7).
Through this research, we will know if the gender of a teacher does really affects the academic performance of a student. And all the details that will be gathered and is related to this research will surely be one of the things that will serve as a thorough finding of this research.
Importance of the Study
This study aimed at giving benefits to the people who are directly and indirectly involved in this study.
For the students, this study will encourage them to be more observant on what happens inside their classroom; thus giving them the idea on...

Welcome to your weekly digest of approaching regulatory and clinical readouts. Jazz Pharmaceuticals expects three phase III studies of its sleep disorder project JZP-110 to read out early next year, and as patent challenges loom for its biggest seller, Xyrem, Jazz needs another moneyspinner.
Also a trial of Johnson & Johnson's Zytiga follow-up apalutamide is likely to yield data in the first half of next year. The study is in non-metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer patients who have not received chemo or androgen receptor inhibitors, and here again the company is looking to defend itself against the threat of generics.
Results from three phase III studies of Jazz's JZP-110, two in sleep apnoea and one in narcolepsy, will appear in 2017. The double-blind, placebo-controlled, sleep apnoea studies in a combined 654 patients are expected to read out in the first quarter of next year.
One of the trials tested four doses (37.5-300mg) of JZP-110 for 12 weeks, and the other was a six-week, flexible-dose, randomised-withdrawal study. The co-primary endpoints of both trials are changes on the Epworth Sleepiness Scale and the maintenance of wakefulness test, measuring the severity of excessive sleepiness and ability to stay awake.
The third study, in excessive sleepiness in narcolepsy, enrolled 240 patients, and three doses of JZP-110 were tested: 75mg, 150mg or 300mg. The co-primary endpoints were the same as in the sleep apnoea trials.
JZP-110 proved effective in phase II in narcolepsy patients, and most adverse events were mild to moderate. The most common were headache, nausea, diarrhoea, insomnia, decreased appetite and anxiety.
A human abuse liability trial showed that JZP-110 was less subject to abuse than phentermine, but still had abuse potential. The company has said it could be scheduled by the DEA as category 4, indicating low to moderate abuse risk, and will likely be positioned as a third-line treatment after generic stimulants.
Bernstein analysts do not view the drug as different from amphetamine in its action via the dopamine receptors, and note that it will likely have moderate commercial success given payer resistance. Forecasts currently sit at $190m by 2022, according to sellside consensus from EvaluatePharma.
Jazz's Xyrem, for excessive daytime sleepiness and cataplexy in narcolepsy, sold $955m last year, making up 72% of the company's revenue. 2022 sales are forecast to reach $1.6bn, according to EvaluatePharma, but as it faces several patent challenges in the next couple of years Jazz needs to strengthen its pipeline.
This is Sparta!
Data from the phase III trial of Johnson & Johnson's apalutamide could also appear in the early months of 2017. The Spartan study, which has a primary completion date of December, is testing apalutamide in 1,200 non-metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer patients.
Apalutamide or placebo is being given as a 240mg tablet once daily alongisde current treatment to patients who are chemo and androgen receptor inhibitor-naive.
The primary measure is metastasis-free survival. Secondary outcomes include overall survival, time to metastasis, progression-free survival and time to initiation of cytotoxic chemotherapy. Trials in combination with niraparib and Zytiga are under way.
In a phase II trial 89% of patients given apalutamide had a PSA decline of at least 50% at week 12. At a median follow-up of 28 months 18 patients (35%) remained in the study, with most discontinuing owing to disease progression or adverse events, the most common of which was fatigue.
Apalutamide, also known by its research codes ARN-509/JNJ-927, is a second-generation androgen receptor antagonist due to be filed next year. Sales are forecast to reach $1.2bn by 2022, according to EvaluatePharma data, and the asset has an NPV of $5.5bn, 2% of the company's market cap.
J&J gained apalutamide through its acquisition of Aragon Pharmaceutical in 2013 for $650m up front. Sales of Zytiga are expected to peak at $2.3bn this year but drop to $1.1bn by 2022 after the drug's patent expires in 2017.

Flourishing are the fancy swirls that you add to letters to glam them up. While mastering this technique takes LOTS of practice, we can break the process into different steps to help you become a pro one step at a time.
The best way to achieve smooth flourishing lines is to draw them quickly. The slower you draw the more "jumpy" your curves will look.
And don't forget that it takes a few minutes to warp up your hand and lots of hours of practice under your belt for this art form to feel natural to you.
Do not feel discouraged if you don't like what you see at first. It gets better, I promise!
Don't forget to follow me on Instagram and mention me in your caption so I can see your work. I still have a lot to learn, so let's share our work and encourage one another.
You can also sign up for my newsletter to receive occasional lettering tips and product updates directly to your email inbox.
If you follow me on Instagram, you know that colorful digital lettering is my jam. What you might not realize is that I'm actually a pen hoarder too and once in a while I like to dig into my stash and reach for my favorite pens to break the routine, create something some fun and horrible. Yes, I said horrible. It's like when you exercise regularly by running miles and miles a day. It's not easy to go into the gym and lift some heavy weights all of a sudden. Your body is not used to it. Same with lettering. Once you start creating great artwork with the tools you've mastered (in my case, the iPad Pro), it's almost like starting all over again when you try new pens.
As you can see in this video, when it comes to real brush lettering, I totally suck at it – ha! In this video, I used the Pentel Brush Pen which allows me to create these raw, crazy-looking strokes. I love it! And boy do I see room for improvement, but that's where the fun comes in. The fun doesn't come from mastery, it comes from the journey to mastery.
I purchased my pen on Amazon so I've included my affiliate link for your convenience. However, I have also found similar pens at Michael's so you can always check there if you're out and about.
Now tell me in the comments below, what are some of your favorite lettering tools?
Just sharing a few lettering tips to help you get started with my new 2019 Calendar Template & Planner Set. The printable set includes three PDF files with:
As an artist I always enjoy seeing other people's creative process. If you're like me, check out this postcard I drew for my sister's new pup welcoming him into the family. It will be sent on behalf of my own dog, Paisley. ❤

Chalk Art Demo & Lettering Tips
They say necessity is the mother of invention and I couldn't agree more! This year, along with my Christmas gifts, I am including hot cocoa spoons with gifts to my family and friends AND I'm also offering them in some of my coffee mug gift sets.
Since gluten and milk products trigger migraines and inflammation in my system, it is imperative that I read all food labels. This led me to create these cute little gift tags for others who are also gifting homemade hot cocoa mix or chocolate spoons. People with food allergies will forever be grateful that you took the time to include an ingredients list with your gift!
The card measures 2x2 inches, it features my original hand drawn artwork on the cover and the text on the back can be customized to include your list of ingredients, instructions and can be personalized with your name.
Now, as far as the chocolate spoons I made, I used @enjoylifefoods semi-sweet, diary-free, vegan and gluten-free chocolate chips to ensure EVERYONE can enjoy a cup of hot cocoa regardless of their dietary restrictions. I just melted the chocolate chips, poured them into each spoon, topped it with crushed peppermint candy, placed in the fridge to cool or a few minutes and wrapped them up to gift.
Because I like to taste the chocolate in my hot cocoa, I use two spoons in 10 ounces of hot almond milk and add a dash a cinnamon. Yum! The chocolate spoons can also be used to sweeten your coffee and make a hot mocha. If you're a chocolate lover, these treats will totally hit the spot!
By the way, I still have a few mug sets available with gluten-free cookies and these diary-free chocolate spoons. Treat yourself or a loved one. You'll love them! 😋

Need Moving Companies
When starting life in a new office or home, at the time the move will be too large to be handled on your own. You will require the services of a moving company in your relocation.
You can search for them online or get recommendations from friends and family. When making a choice on which moving company to hire, it is important to understand the things to do and those to avoid. You will be entrusting the company with your valued possessions in the whole process. Following the list below of things to do and those not to be done will help you obtain the best moving company to help you with relocation.
Here are the Do's:
• Enquire about other extra fees charged. You should seek to know whether the price charged by a moving company is inclusive or exclusive of other extra costs that might arise out of the move. Extra costs including parking fees, porter costs, and cost of packing items that are not packed properly among others.
• Enquire about the handling of fragile items. Many moving companies require to pack the delicate items themselves to insure against damage.
• In the event, you will not be available to oversee the move, ensure to have a responsible family member or a friend to oversee the relocation from your old location to the new one.
• Ensure to bring representatives of the moving company to the old and new location of relocation. The visit enables them to plan the move and also provide you with price estimates.
• Ensure to give precise directions and contact information to both your old and new location. Have them printed and give them to all the persons involved in the move to help them find their way should they get lost.
Here are the Don'ts
• Avoid relying on price alone when choosing a moving company. The moving company charging the least price is not always the best. You should evaluate price charged for the quality of service being offered. Moving companies charging too little compared to the market rate are an indication of poor quality of service.
• Don't hire an uninsured moving company. The company should provide cover to the value of the property being moved, vehicle insurance, and compensation to workers and general liability. You should request to see their insurance certificate.
• Avoid paying huge amounts as deposits before the work is done. Moving companies with a reputation for good service charge customer once the move has been accomplished. Paying before the service has been rendered is a disadvantage to you since you lose control over your possession. Pay using credit card to track payment and avoid fraudulent activity.
• Do not sign a blank or not filled out contract. Have every contract detail put in writing including fees, pick-up and delivery points and dates as well. Ensure to have all your belongings listed on the contract. Action against missing items depends on their presence on the list of inventories.
Moving is a procedure in itself with so many things to think about that sometimes we forget certain details that become problems during the process. There are a lot of common problems that people make before they contact a moving company and these problems often times result in more and more problems. To avoid these issues, below is a list of the top 6 mistakes people make when hiring a moving company.
If it's been a long time since you've moved, chances are you've forgotten about how time-consuming moving can be. Procrastinating at the last moment to pack before the movers show up can result in a number of things going wrong like forgetting to put something in the box, putting it in the wrong box, or having it misplaced. Get your packing done at least 24 hrs before the moving company shows up!
When the time comes to unpack your boxes at your new home, putting all of the boxes that don't have labels or mix-matched boxes into one room for sorting out later can be an absolute nightmare! Organizing your boxes with labels by room will be such a big help for you and the movers as they unload the truck.
Like most people on this earth, some of us have a tendency to hang onto stuff that we never use and hang onto forever! This is a prime opportunity to thin down stuff that you don't need. There's no need to be paying extra moving expenses for 20 boxes of junk or waste your time sorting through it and packing it. Get rid of it!
After a long day of traveling, the last thing you feel like doing is looking for your personal hygiene products and combing through endless boxes making a mess looking for your bathroom stuff. Don't pack these essentials into moving boxes for the truck. Make an overnight bag and keep them close.
If you don't schedule a moving company ahead of time there's a good chance you may not be moving that day! Most professional companies do not operate on such short notices. There might be a chance that you get lucky and they have a team with no trip already booked. Always call your moving company in advance and get a moving day locked-in.
This is the biggest mistake that people make in hiring a moving company! Before you do anything, the very first thing to check is their standing in the community. Are they an established business in the community they serve, do they have a customer service department that answers your calls, do they have an established website with contact information and customer reviews, and are they honest and don't have a track record for being late or a history of personal items reported missing? Do your homework!

PRESCOT CABLES face a difficult test as they battle to climb off the bottom of the UniBond Premier Division tomorrow.
Andy Gray's men, who have conceded nine goals in their most recent outings, are at home to a Bradford Park Avenue side which climbed back into the play-off zone with Monday's remarkable 6-4 home victory over Ashton United.
Marine's promotion hopes have nosedived in recent weeks, with four defeats in five games leaving Alvin McDonald's men in 10th place.
The Mariners look to get back on track when they take on Ossett Town at home, having beaten the Yorkshiremen 5-4 away in the opening weeks of the season. Marine will be keen to avoid a fourth consecutive home defeat.
Cammell Laird travel to North Ferriby United, where Derek Ward's men will be hoping to avenge a 2-1 home defeat at the hands of the Humbersiders a month ago.
Skelmersdale United bid for a ninth consecutive win when they continue their First Division North promotion push by hosting Harrogate Railway Athletic.

AbstractMedical Tourism is an upcoming industry and has got vast potential, but out of total India has got 8% of the market share which is too meager. So there is a need to plan short term and long term strategy at the regional level and at the national level, to make India the destination for Medical Value touris m. as per the international standards, Indian doctors being the best considering 38 % doctors in U.S. and 23% in U.K being Indian .patient centric care, treatment being made as complete experience, focus on less system error and Joint Commission International (JCI ) accreditation becoming order of the day along with other support facilities. However in order to leverage the vast future potential, we have a long way to go. There is a need to focus on getting great facilities, combining medical with tourism. Making India being perceived as the destination and bridge the biggest barrier in the form of infrastructure and super specialty hospitals and encourage investments in healthcare sectors. As most of us are aware, good health is a prerequisite for human development and this has led to the growing emphasis among the general public on the importance of healthcare. Patients are now seeking for higher quality healthcare services and standards, more affordable medical treatment as well as shorter waiting times. To fulfill these expectations, patients are willing to travel across the world to receive treatments that can give them "value for money". The process of "leaving home" for treatments abroad is an emerging phenomenon in the healthcare services industry that has the potential to generate multiplier effects on the economy.

Massena man dies in two-car crash in Norfolk; Colton couple suffers minor injuries
NORFOLK – State police Thursday night identified the man who died in a two-car collision on NYS Hwy. 56 as Michael J. Hunter, 36, of Massena.
Police said the crash occurred shortly before 3:10 p.m. after Hunter attempted to pass another uninvolved vehicle on the right while it was stopped in traffic waiting to make a left turn into a private driveway. Hunter lost control of his 1984 Oldsmobile, entered the southbound lane and was struck by a 2007 Acura traveling south and operated by Micki T. Nesbitt, 62, of Colton, police said.Hunter was transported to Massena Memorial Hospital where he died from injuries received in the crash, police said.
Nesbitt and his wife and front seat passenger, Shirley Nesbitt, were transported to Canton-Potsdam Hospital with minor injuries, police said.
St Lawrence County Coroner Jamie Sienkiewicyz has ordered an autopsy for Friday to determine the cause of death.
The investigation into the accident is ongoing, police said.
