Can you imagine how much more productive and efficient you would be if you were just complaining less than normal. The average person complains between 20-25 times per day. I bet you have never noticed how many times you have actually complained in the last 24 hours (sleeping time is not counted).
So why do we all do it? – Instead of taking responsibility, it's an easy way out. It's a short term cure (excuse) of the moment.
It is easy to get other people to agree with us when we complain about something, because everyone is willing to share their excuses as to why they have not reached where they want to be, and how they have been hard done by life. "I am overworked and underpaid". "I deserve more out of life", "I always end up with the short-end of the stick", "I don't have enough time", "I don't have enough money".
Can you imagine how life would be if everybody was complaining less than average? But let's take one step at a time and let's start the first step by reducing the amount of times "you" complain. Imagine how much happier you would be if you simply stopped whining. Most of what you complain about is out of your control anyway.
So start by writing down your everyday complaints.
When you wake up in the morning, go ahead with your usual tasks, but the minute you have had your coffee and your brain has ignited and is ready to start complaining, and your mouth has been refreshed with toothpaste and mouthwash again ready for those complaining words to come out – grab your little notebook.
Like trying to cut back on your daily spending by writing down every cent you spend, I want you to write down every complaint that you come across whether it is still in your head or it has just been verbalized. Simply becoming conscious of how much you complain is the first step to stopping. When you realize that you are complaining, stop and take a note of it in your little notebook.
The second step is to ask yourself whether you have control over your complaint. Like I mentioned before, sometimes the situation is out of our reach, giving our complaint the benefit of the doubt, but in most cases our complaint can be totally controlled by ourselves.
If there is nothing you can do about it, then just let it go, don't waste any more time on it as time is the most valuable thing in the world. Now if the complaint is within your reach, and most of the times it is, now is the time to act, your target remember; complaining less than normal.
What you have to do now is change your attitude and behavior. Change the angle at which you look at your complaint, and offer possible solutions to your own complaint and write them down in your notebook, titled as "Solution". The irony of this is that we almost always have a solution, but we tend to complain anyway. Tackle your solution with questions like
1. How can I avoid this in the future.
2. What can I do instead, so in the future I will be at least, complaining less about the same situation.
3. What do I need to change about myself.
4. Who else do I need to speak to tackle this situation.
5. What else do I want – what is the alternative of the complaint.
And last but not least . . .
6. What am I grateful for?
Instead of complaining for example, that after a hard day at work, when coming home, my wife has not cooked my favorite food, then write down next to the solution, "I am grateful that my wife has cooked for me, and that I have food on my table whereas many do not have this luxury of having a roof over their head, and having something to eat". You see how gratification has worked its way into a solution.
If you can stop for a second and think of all the things we should be grateful for, then I can assure you that your complaints will be reduced tremendously. And as a bonus, when writing down your solution in your notebook, you not only solve your complaint, but you have also taken responsibility which in turn has helped to grow your self esteem.
A win win situation.
"Any fool can criticize, condemn, and complain but it takes character and self control to be understanding and forgiving." – Dale Carnegie

The titled "Acheiving Growth through an Active CSR Policy" was a follow-up to the earlier activities Business Sweden and the Embassy have organised to promote Swedish CSR expertise in the region. The target group was executives from local and Swedish companies with clear CSR policies. The Roundtable resulted in many new contacts for the participating companies. Together with the Embassy of Sweden in Abu Dhabi and the Swedish Energy Agency, Business Sweden arranged for the fourth consecutive year a Swedish Pavilion at the World Future Energy Summit, January 20-22, 2014. WFES has become one of the world's premier venues for cleantech and renewable energy sources with a large global impact within the sector.
The target group for participation in the pavilion was all types of suppliers of products and services in the field of cleantech and renewable energy sources. This year we also had the privilege to present four innovative Swedish cities who chose to exhibit and demonstrate their solutions in accordance with the SymbioCity concept.

Wed November 05, 2003 - Northeast Edition
Spades sank deep into Pennsylvania earth when local, state and Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) officials participated in the official groundbreaking to inaugurate the Route 22 Gas Center Improvement project.
Held late last year at the intersection of Route 22 and the evocatively named S-Curve Road in East Wheatfield Township in Indiana County, the $24.4-million project will update a stretch of Route 22 from its intersection with Route 403 to the Cambria County border and thereby improve drivers' mobility and safety.
Route 22 links Pittsburgh to central Pennsylvania. Now entering its 10th year, the Gas Center project is part of a $342-million reconstruction job undertaken to improve motorists' safety. Although much of the corridor now is a controlled access, four-lane highway, PennDOT and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) are undertaking upgrading to deal with safety concerns arising for older parts of the highway due to traffic increasing steadily over the years.
The 9-mi. (14.5 km) stretch involved in this portion of the job stretches through Cambria and Indiana counties. Completion will result in four, 12-ft. (3.6 m) wide lanes of concrete highway with an 18-ft. (5.5 m) wide median lane/divider, plus new left turn lanes at intersections.
Construction costs of approximately $25 million will be paid for by funding provided by the 1997 Revenue Enhancement Act and the Commonwealth.
According to PennDOT, the deepest fill involved in the job will be 36 ft. (11 m) and the deepest cut 31 ft. (9.4 m). Approximately 907,000 cu. yds. (693,451 cu m) — approximately 45,350 truck loads — of excavation will eventually be carried out, while materials to be utilized for the project include:
• 95,750 tons (4,788 truck loads) of subbase,
• 81,000 tons (4,050 truck loads) of bituminous concrete,
• 67,040 cubic yards (7,450 truck loads) of concrete pavement, and
• 4.7 miles of pipes with diameters greater than 18 in.
Prime contractor is the Dick Corporation, headquartered in Pittsburgh, PA.
The project has an anticipated completion date of June 2004. Phase I began in September 2002 and was completed late last year. Work completed during this phase included utility work and grubbing and clearing so that detour road construction and drainage work could be carried out. The latter also involves construction of sediment traps, diversion ditches and installation of both permanent and temporary cross-pipes.
"We used multiple pieces of equipment, mostly Caterpillar 990 front loaders," said Eric Griffiths, project engineer of the Dick Corporation, "plus 773D off-highway trucks, D350 articulated trucks, 631 scrapers, and D-8 and D-9 bulldozers."
An award-winning wetland mitigation site covering seven acres at Vintondale in Cambria County has been created as part of the project. Built in cooperation with AMD&ART Inc., based in Johnstown, PA, and awarded a Pennsylvania Partnership for Highway Quality Environmental Award in 2002, the new wetlands are intended to take the place of those affected by construction. These wetlands host more than 10,000 plants from approximately 30 species, and also act as a collection pond for cleansed water originally polluted by acid draining from mines. Filtered water arriving in the wetlands is further filtered before being returned to a local creek. The company is a not-for-profit organization devoted to handling problems caused by this type of environmentally damaging drainage.

"We are happy to continue our support of an organization dedicated to improving the lives of children, youth and their families."
Milwaukee, WI (PRWEB) April 25, 2016
Wisconsin Hospitality Group, operator of 74 Pizza Hut restaurants in the state of Wisconsin, is launching its annual five-week Share Your Heart campaign on April 24th throughout all of its restaurants. The campaign has raised more than $900,000 for Camp Heartland during the last 15 years and this year's effort is expected to push total donations beyond one million dollars. Proceeds raised will support Camp Heartland programs and operations, which provides children afflicted with HIV/AIDS the ability to enjoy an exciting and progressive summer camp experience.
Last year, our local Pizza Hut locations raised more than $68,000 for Camp Heartland. The funds were used to provide the camp state-of-the-art kitchen equipment.
Camp Heartland, operated by One Heartland is a national nonprofit whose mission is to serve children and youth ages 7-15 infected or directly affected by HIV/AIDS. The organization operates one-week camps which provide these children a welcomed relief from the rigors of everyday life. Through shared experience, psychological support and countless activities, campers experience strides in their personal and social development.
"We are happy to continue our support of an organization dedicated to improving the lives of children, youth and their families," said Mark Dillon, President and CEO of Wisconsin Hospitality Group. "Pizza Hut has always been committed to encouraging and strengthening our communities and we are honored to support Camp Heartland again this year."
All Wisconsin Hospitality Group Pizza Hut locations participate in the Share Your Heart campaign. The funds are raised through the sale of $1 paper hearts. In addition to fundraising efforts in the restaurants, employees also organize initiatives in their communities in an effort to raise additional money to support the cause.
"We are incredibly grateful for the support our partners at Wisconsin Hospitality Group have given us over the years," says Camp Heartland Executive Director Patrick Kindler. "It's not every organization that dedicates so much time and effort to doing good on behalf of communities in need. We are proud to have had Wisconsin Hospitality Group Pizza Huts partner with us for the last 15 years – here's to 15 more."
Wisconsin Hospitality Group, a local restaurant franchise group, and its two restaurant brands, Pizza Hut and Applebee's, through the generosity of its guests and the hard work and charitable efforts of its team members, have raised more than $2.4 million for local charities in the past 15 years. To learn more about our other fundraising campaigns, go to whgcares.org
Wisconsin Hospitality Group has become the largest Wisconsin-based food service franchise company in the state; they own and operate 110 restaurants across Wisconsin. Headquarters located in Waukesha, WHG operates 36 Applebee's Grill & Bar restaurants and 74 Pizza Hut Restaurants, all committed to guest satisfaction and community support.
Camp Heartland provides a place of complete acceptance and freedom from social isolation. Through shared experience, psychosocial support and a lot of fun, campers experience leaps in personal growth and social development.

By Arthur Waldron
The good Wall of China is popular as essentially the most outstanding and exciting man-made buildings in the world. it's also the topic of an amazing mythology, embedded in either realized and well known imaginations, which has grown up and now obscured the old list. Even the maps which chart the Wall's place provide misguided bills of a phenomenon which hasn't ever been correctly surveyed. Arthur Waldron unearths that the concept of an historic and consistently present nice Wall, certainly one of glossy China's nationwide symbols and a legend within the eyes of the West, is actually a delusion. His interesting account finds the strategic and political context for the choice to construct partitions as fortified defences, and explores its profound implications for nomadic and agricultural lifestyles below the Ming dynasty. taking over the insights provided into newer chinese language politics, the booklet concludes with a looking research of the Wall's new meanings within the myths - departing from that background - fostered in our personal century.

Race and Ethnicity of the Mid-Valley Workforce - 2017January 15, 2019 In Oregon and the Mid-Valley, the workforce has grown more diverse over the years. The total workforce in Oregon has grown 50.3 percent since 1992, growing from 1.2 million in 1992 to 1.8 million in 2017. The workforce has grown 46.5 percent in the Mid-Valley counties since 1992.
Two groups within the workforce have almost doubled their share of employment during that time period in Oregon. Asian Alone grew from 2.4 percent to 5.0 percent of the workforce and Two or More Race Groups grew from 1.6 percent to 3.1 percent of the workforce. All the other minority racial groups also grew, while the largest racial group, White Alone, dropped from 93.1 percent to 87.4 percent of the workforce.
Ethnic diversity in the Oregon workforce has also improved over the past 25 years. In 1992, Hispanic/Latino workers accounted for 4.4 percent of the workforce. By 2017, the Hispanic/Latino share of the workforce grew to 11.6 percent.
Mid-Valley counties also saw the percentage of minorities in the workforce grow over the past 25 years. The minority workforce populations with the most percentage growth mirrored the state – Asian Alone and Two or More Race Groups. The largest racial group, White Alone, dropped from 94.5 percent to 90.0 percent. The Hispanic/Latino workforce has also grown, from 6.7 percent in 1992 to 15.9 percent in 2017. The Mid-Valley's Hispanic/Latino population is one of the largest in the state.
Josh Lehner, an economist with Oregon's Office of Economic Analysis, recently posted a report titled Migration Diversifies Oregon, Barely. He summed it up at the end of the post thusly: "Bottom Line: Oregon is becoming more diverse over time. This is in part due to births, but also in part due to migration trends. However, these shifts are small in any given year. Demographics change only slowly over time, but are powerful forces."

The Normalisation Committee is being accused of deliberately 'sowing seed of fear, panic and confusion' amid a controversial player-payment policy that has ruffled feathers in the powerful African football nation.
The clubs are unhappy with attempts by the interim Ghana body to pay players directly amid fears it will bring disquiet between the teams and players.
The populist approach is being resisted by several clubs, with Premier League clubs threatening to boycott the three-month competition over the clandestine attempts to caught disaffection between the two parties.
The Normalisation Committee say it will pay players of winning teams in both Tier 1 and Tier 2 competitions directly into their account.
But Aduana Stars chief executive Albert Commey has rejected the proposal as preposterous.
"We have contract with players, spend a lot on them and you want to set us on a collision course with our players? That exactly what this policy is intended to achieve," he said
"We are going to discuss and decide whether we will play or not. The decision of the Normalisation Committee is not binding on anybody."
Dreams FC Administrative Manager Ameenu Shardow re-echoed the sentiments of the clubs.
"I cannot wake up one day and come to the FA and say I am going to pay any form of incentive to the staff only because I have the funds to do so," he is quoted by FootballMadeInGhana.com
"As clubs, we engaged our players solely based on the negotiations and agreement we have with them for which reason we have a contract.
"And in any case, who says that players are the only factor of success. In my club for instance, we believe that even the groundsman the cuts the grass to enable the players to play must share in the benefits of success.
"Not to talk of the coaches, people in management and all who are directly linked to the success of a team.
"I think this idea must be quickly abandoned because it has the risk of causing internal problems between the clubs and their employees which is the players. I don't know where this is done."
The player-payment policy has sparked outrage among clubs in the West African nation amid fears the policy will set the teams on a collision course with the players.
A combined 64 teams comprising sixteen (16) Premier League and forty-eight (48) Division will take part in the three-month competition.
The Normalisation Committee revealed the financial package and modalities to the clubs on Wednesday in the Ghanaian capital, Accra.
A reported $800,000 has been earmarked for the running of the emergency competition.

If today is Sunday, then it must be time for zAmboni to dish up another edition of Science Sunday. This week, zAmboni's update on happenings in the world of science include nanotubes, mass extinctions, solar flares, and the physics of baseball.
Most [analysts] state a fastball will travel furthest because the velocity transfer when the ball is hit is greater than with a curveball. If [physicists'] research is true, the reason most major leaguers don't wallop the knuckler or curve as far may be because they are slightly fooled and fail to get good wood on them.
Yes, and we all know what Sammy Sosa can do to a hanging curveball. Science Sunday grooves one right over plate for you!

Economy minister Darko Horvat confirmed on Wednesday that the EC's first comments on a restructuring program for the troubled Pula-based Uljanik shipyard had arrived and that the EC doubted the chosen potential strategic partner's financial capability and warned about the state's too big involvement. He explained that the comments arrived on Tuesday and were forwarded to the Uljanik management, the strategic partner Kermas Energija of Danko Koncar and the consultants, whose response is expected in the next few days. Horvat noted that the comments were identical to those of the economy and finance ministries to the first draft restructuring program three months ago. The latter raises the question why the government, that controls more than 25% in the company, has sent the draft program in the first place, thus losing three months of the shipyard, instead of returning the plan to the company and its consultants for being reworked. As we have argued before, the move of the government has showed its negligence to the problems in the dock.
Horvat also informed that with regard to state guarantees on Uljanik that are now due, the only bank which had enforced state collateral in the amount of EUR48m was Splitska Banka and that it was paid. He said that the Croatian Postal Bank (HPB) has not opted for that, adding that it is yet to be seen next week what will happen with the ships worth EUR70m whose construction has been cancelled. The government issued collateral for a EUR48m loan which HPB gave Uljanik in January. The minister also said that in order to reduce the potential costs from the state guarantees issued for Uljanik on the state budget, the government has been trying to assure the clients whose ships were at a high stage of completion either at Uljanik or the Rijeka-based 3.Maj dock to let them be completed. He assessed that if the government was successful, the pressure on the state budget will be halved, perhaps to about HRK 1bn. Recall that FinMin Zdravko Maric has admitted that Uljanik's financial situation and potential activation of the issued for it state guarantees poses a big risk to the state budget in the short- to medium-term
As for the September wages in Uljanik, Horvat said that the collection of money for their payment has not started yet, but underlined that the management must provide the money for the wages of the workers and added that the payment of wages from the state budget is no longer possible as the EC does not allow it. The minister noted that which model the government will consider and perhaps have a chance to pay them, at least three minimum wages, will be known next week.
Earlier in the day Uljanik and 3.Maj docks informed in response to the Zagreb stock exchange inquiry that the restructuring model for Uljanik that has been analyzed by the EC referred only to that dock and not to the other companies in the group. They also said that the possible separation of 3.Maj in the long term organization strategy of the Uljanik group and the interest of certain investors have already been announced, but no procedures envisaged by law for separating the 3.Maj shipyard have been launched as yet. They also said that no formal step in that regard will be taken before the Uljanik restructuring program is adopted.

FWMAV (Flapping-Wing Micro Air Vehicle) Project
UC Irvine
Recent advancements in flight controller hardware and electronics have allowed for a surge in the performance capabilities of small-scale UAVs. However, as far as flying technology has come in recent years, man-made flying machines are still outperformed by the stability, maneuverability, and agility of some flying birds and insects. By combining bio-inspired flapping-wing mechanisms with modern UAV technology, the Flapping-Wing Micro Air Vehicle (FWMAV) Project has constructed a highly-agile micro UAV with new transformational flight dynamics.
Garbage Collecting Boat (GCB)
Purdue University
Water pollution is a major concern in today's society. One particular problem is water pollution such as floating garbage on the water surface. As a partial solution to these issues, this team presents the creation of a portable Garbage Collecting Boat or "GCB" that is capable of collecting floating garbage on the water surface controlled remotely by a user interface.
The GCB will offer this functionality through a unique circuit design and controls system such that water floating garbage could be collected efficiently and the GCB is portable to cover the cleaning from location to location. The GCB will also utilize several designed systems that cooperate with each other to perform the cleaning job and provide all relative information from the working environment to the remote user interface. Ultimately the GCB will be tested in both ideal environment and natural water area as a new viable alternative for small area water cleaning.
PhleAid: Automated Phlebotomy Assistant
PhleAid, the Automated Phlebotomy Assistant, implements a combination of three subsystems: a vial selection system, a vial handling and labeling system and a blood verification system; to simplify and support the phlebotomy process and well as minimize pre-analytical laboratory errors. The vial selection system chooses the appropriate vial for each test through a graphical input and decision-making system that utilizes a microprocessor and test database. The vial handling and labeling system minimizes user contact with the blood specimen by implementing our designed hardware, stepper motors and proximity sensors. Additionally, a bar code scanner is implemented to identify each blood vial. Finally, the blood verification system utilizes a series of photo diodes, LED lights and amplifiers to detect the level of blood inside the vial. This system ensures that the volume of blood obtained is sufficient for testing.
Preventative Care Knee Exoskeleton
The increasing ageing population frequently suffers from knee joint degeneration.

This project aims to develop a low cost, customizable assistive knee exoskeleton for activities of daily living. This device is intended to aid patients with degenerative knee joint conditions.
Boston University
Humans have relied on fresh and saltwater rivers for transportation, clean drinking water, irrigation, and food since the earliest recorded history. Compared to oceans and other large bodies of water, however, rivers are significantly understudied, especially with respect to the effects of climate change. In an effort to close this research gap, we have set out to develop the RiverSonde, a low-profile underwater sensor suite that enables inexpensive remote collection of water quality data from rivers and streams. We've designed RiverSonde to be hydroelectrically-powered by a river's natural current, making it deployable in low-sunlight areas, and mesh-networking-ready, meaning a multiple-sonde network can be deployed to take remote measurements even in areas without cellular coverage. By implementing sensors and electronics that are typically only found in $3000+ laboratory probes while still keeping RiverSonde's base cost under $500, we hope to give budget-constrained research and regulatory agencies a powerful new tool to help preserve our rivers for generations to come.
University of Pennsylvania
S.S. MAPR is an autonomous surface vehicle that measures water quality metrics and takes samples at varying depths throughout the Schuylkill and Delaware Rivers. It is equipped with sensors to measure dissolved oxygen and temperature, as well as a water sampling mechanism that can pump samples at desired depths determined by the user. Given its low cost and faster speed, S.S. MAPR can be frequently deployed to gather measurements and samples to model water quality, ensure compliance with regulations, and quickly identify critical changes across the water body.
Team Icarus
Virginia Tech
Icarus Arm Exo will develop an active exoskeleton that will be suitable for industrial workers. The design will incorporate electromechanical components that can adjust the strength of gravity compensation as well as offer dynamic trajectory assistance. In this way, if a user wearing the exoskeleton needs to hold a heavy tool or perform a repetitive task, the exoskeleton can alleviate the forces on the shoulder and arm and prevent discomfort. The exoskeleton will be low profile, thereby minimizing any interference with a worker's environment.

The final product consists of three prototype cars that can move around autonomously with such features. Implementation of a secure smart-system for autonomous vehicles will reduce the number of accidents caused by drunk driving, distracted or reckless driving, speeding, and blind-spots which allows for overall safer transportation and more productive commute times.
Team Smart Epipen
Boston University
EpiPen epinephrine auto injectors are prescribed to millions of Americans each year to treat allergen-induced anaphylaxis. Our Smart EpiPen system will consist of an EpiPen case that detects when the EpiPen is removed and contacts a specified support circle with the user's GPS location. The case will also communicate with a wearable component that will notify the wearer if they leave their EpiPen in another room. These components will be paired with a web application where the user can submit customized information such as support circle contact numbers, and where the emergency history of the case will be tracked.
Team Zipcart
UMass Amherst
Checkout aisles in retail stores are inefficient, there are better ways to process transactions that don't involve waiting in long lines for a cashier. In stores, every item is marked with a barcode that uniquely identifies it, these barcodes can be processed using computer vision techniques. Our team will create an embedded system for shopping carts that will process orders in a passive manner, requiring no intervention from the shopper. As items are placed in the cart, a camera will "scan" the item and send data to the cloud to process the order.
University of Central Florida
Community food projects are comprehensive projects that incorporates the participation of local communities in developing innovative approaches that foster solutions for improving access to food systems and reduce food scarcity. The goal of the UFARM system is to create an assistant for small to community scale urban gardens that will monitor the conditions including the crops, soil and the surrounding and respond to the conditions when necessary and alert the network of users when intervention is required. The proposed system will actively monitor the soil and crop conditions with various sensors and regional data including soil moisture, electrical conductivity, ambient temperature, relative humidity and more. The sensor information will be tracked and compared to stored values and displayed on the GUI for the user's convenience. The UFARM system of tracking sensor and regional weather data isn't a novel approach but utilizing this data to urban agriculture applications while maintaining comparable cost is a worthwhile endeavor.

Solkan (pronounced [ˈsoːu̯kan] or [sɔu̯ˈkan]; Italian: Salcano, German: Sollingen or Salcano) is a settlement in the City Municipality of Nova Gorica in the Gorizia region of western Slovenia, at the border with Italy. Although it forms a single urban area with the city of Nova Gorica today, it has maintained the status of a separate urban settlement due to its history and the strong local identity of its residents.

Firstly, if you are interested in OTC stocks like Anatolia Minerals DE, you will be doing yourself a massive favor by joining the Trader HR chat room (the people there are experts at tricky stocks like this), so do that now – we also strongly recommend Microcap Millionaires where you can learn how to profit hugely off lesser known OTC stocks (what you find there is much more interesting than ALIAF, in our view). These recommendations are current as of 2020-01-08. Now onto the news and analysis.
REPORTING FOR 2020-01-08 | BUNDESPREMIERLEAGUE.COM: We have conducted a deep analysis of how Anatolia Minerals DE (OTCMKTS:ALIAF) has been trading over the last 2 weeks and the past day especially. On its latest session, Anatolia Minerals DE (OTCMKTS:ALIAF) opened at 5.26, reaching a high of 5.26 and a low of 5.04 before closing at a price of 5.16. There was a total volume of 35241.
VOLUME INDICATORS: We saw an accumulation-distribution index of 24.98773, an on-balance volume of 5.13, chaikin money flow of 4.71838 and a force index of 0.01278. There was an ease of movement rating of 0.0001, a volume-price trend of 0.59141 and a negative volume index of 1000.0.
VOLATILITY: We noted an average true range of 0.10533, bolinger bands of 5.21228, an upper bollinger band of 4.95772, lower bollinger band of 5.04, a bollinger high band indicator of 1.0, bollinger low band indicator of 1.0, a central keltner channel of 5.18667, high band keltner channel of 5.18667, low band keltner channel of 5.18667, a high band keltner channel indicator of 1.0 and a low band keltner channel indicator of 1.0. There was a donchian channel high band of 5.04, a donchian channel low band of 5.04, a donchian channel high band indicator of 1.0, and a donchian channel low band indicator of 1.0.
TREND: We calculated a Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) of 0.00202, a MACD signal of 0.00112, a MACD difference of 0.0009, a fast Exponential Moving Average (EMA) indicator of 5.04, a slow Exponential Moving Average (EMA) indicator of 5.04, an Average Directional Movement Index (ADX) of unknown, an ADX positive of 20.0, an ADX negative of 20.0, a positive Vortex Indicator (VI) of 1.0, a negative VI of 1.0, a trend vortex difference of 0.00859, a trix of 6.97642, a Mass Index (MI) of 2.44, a Commodity Channel Index (CCI) of 66.66667, a Detrended Price Oscillator (DPO) of -0.51859, a KST Oscillator (KST) of 114.69578 and a KST Oscillator (KST Signal) of 114.69578 (leaving a KST difference of 4.97632). We also found an Ichimoku rating of 5.26, an Ichimoku B rating of 5.26, a Ichimoku visual trend A of 4.75551, an Ichimoku visual trend B of 5.00947, an Aroon Indicator (AI) up of 4.0 and an AI indicator down of 4.0.

What the heck does all of this mean? If you are new to technical analysis, the above may be gibberish to you, and that's OK (though we do advise learning these things). The bottom line is that AS OF 2020-01-08 (if you are reading this later, the analysis will be out of date), our analysis of technical indicators for Anatolia Minerals DE (OTCMKTS:ALIAF) is telling us that this is OK to hold – but we have no strong sell or buy signals..

When a complaint is made
The Lawyers Complaints Service must be uniform and consistent throughout New Zealand, and also fair, effective and efficient. Complaints will be handled in 12 of the branch areas on behalf of the New Zealand Law Society, with national office maintaining a supervisory role. Standards committees will handle the complaints assisted by Legal Standards Officers (LSOs).
Complaints must be in writing and must include certain information. The complaints service must give reasonable assistance to any person wishing to make a complaint. Once a valid complaint has been received, a LSO must acknowledge receipt to the complainant, notify the lawyer and provide a copy of the complaint, and refer the matter as soon as reasonably practicable to a standards committee.
Lawyers have the right to make an explanation in response to the complaint.
Early Resolution Service
If a complainant and the lawyer they're complaining about are both willing, matters could be resolved by negotiation, conciliation or mediation via the Early Resolution Service. If so, an ERS Legal Standards Officer will phone and explain the process.
Initial decision
Once a complaint has been referred to it, the standards committee may:
- Decide to take no action on the complaint
- Ask the parties to explore negotiation, conciliation or mediation to resolve all or part of the complaint
- Decide to inquire into the complaint
The committee must, as soon as practicable, advise the complainant and the lawyer of the procedure that it proposes to adopt.
If an inquiry is commenced, the standards committee may delegate part of this to a LSO, a costs assessor or a special investigator. Once all the information has been received, a hearing will be held.
Hearings and findings
There is a strong statutory preference for hearings to be on the papers.
After holding a hearing, a standards committee can make one of the following determinations:
- Decide that no further action is warranted
- Decide that the matter is so serious that it should be referred to the New Zealand Lawyers and Conveyancers Disciplinary Tribunal
- Find that there has been unsatisfactory conduct
If a standards committee makes a finding of unsatisfactory conduct, it has a wide range of orders that it can make (under s156 of the LCA), including:
- That some or all of the terms of an agreed settlement (made at mediation) be all or part of a final determination of the complaint
- Making a censure or reprimand, or ordering an apology to be made
- Ordering the lawyer to pay compensation up to $25,000 (for actual loss)
- Ordering that fees be reduced or cancelled or refunds made and errors or omissions rectified
- Ordering that a lawyer's practice be made available for inspection
- Ordering a lawyer to take management advice and undergo training or education
- Fining a lawyer up to $15,000
- Ordering a lawyer to pay costs of the inquiry and/or costs/expenses of complainant
Notification of most decisions of a standards committee is made to the complainant and lawyer and also to related entities (partner, employer or director) and to the NZLS. A standards committee may direct publication of any decision but the decision to publish the name of a lawyer who has been censured can be made only by the NZLS Board.
How to respond to a complaint investigation
If you are asked to respond to a Standards Committees about a complaint:
- Be prompt with your response
- Cover all matters raised by the complaint, but do not make your explanations too long
- If you do not want to answer a particular point (if a matter is before the Court, for example) explain why
- If a number of different allegations are made, list and deal with each one separately
- If a complaint is justified, acknowledge this, if appropriate, and apologise
- Answer any follow-up questions promptly
- If you are finding it difficult to respond, ask someone else in your firm to review the file and prepare the response on your behalf. In some firms this is done routinely. If you are a sole practitioner, ask another sole practitioner, your attorney, or your local law society office for the name of someone from a Friends Panel who may be able to help. This can provide a different perspective.

A registered trademark of the National Xeriscape Council, the term xeriscape may be defined as horticulture that emphasizes water conservation. Derived from the Greek word xeros, which means dry, xeriscape uses specific landscape design elements and management practices to achieve the goal of water conservation. Xeriscape may also encompass other goals, such as creating habitat, using native plants, responding to the local environment and using inspiration and materials from the regional landscape. Xeriscape does not preclude using high-water-use plant materials as design elements, but it limits their use in concert with the water conservation objective and stresses their relationship to the overall design.
Xeriscape makes good economic and ecological sense, considering California's limited water supply. About 25 to 30 percent of the water consumed in urban areas of the state is used for landscape irrigation. A property designed and installed xeriscape can reduce net energy consumption by providing shade in summer and allowing the sun to warm dwellings in winter. If properly executed, xeriscapes can be less costly but just as beautiful as traditional landscapes. Xeriscapes follow ten common principles:

Not all travel is planned. This was the case with our recent time in Minnesota. However, travel addicts that we are, we found a way to make a bummer trip into a blast. For this reason, day 275 of the Nowhere To Be Project is all about the magic of Minnesota.
The state is, of course, known as 'the land of 10,000 lakes'. However, I think an equally fitting description is 'the land of the NICEST people on Earth'. No joke! EVERY SINGLE PERSON WE ENCOUNTERED FOR TWO WHOLE WEEKS WAS NICE! Really and truly nice! This is absolutely not the case in our home state of Florida. Colorado, our chosen home state is better, but simply cannot touch Minnesota in terms of NICE citizens.
Most of our time was based in Rochester. Rochester is frigid, but the people are not, lol. They are so nice. We shot off to Minneapolis to visit the Mall of America and Paisley Park. The mall was nothing special (except for the kids' play area…roller coasters!!!). Paisley Park was absolutely amazing and is a must see destination. The town of Red Wing was also lovely and highly recommended for an afternoon visit. We stayed at the following hotels during our time mingling with the nicest people in the world:
-The Kahler Grand in Rochester: This should be a hard pass. It is sad because it has such potential as an historic structure in Rochester. It also has the best foot access to the Mayo Clinic. Sadly, it is just gross.
-La Quinta in Rochester: Clean and fairly priced, but could certainly use some updating. Located a few miles from downtown Rochester.
-Doubletree in Rochester: Very pricey (over $300) for what it was. The selling point is underground access to Mayo Clinic…not as close in proximity as the Kahler Grand, but much, much cleaner.
-Crowne Plaza in Minneapolis: Run down and way overpriced with a decent downtown location. We found the Kimpton to be a far better option for lodging in Minneapolis, but they were booked this time:-(.
Moral of the story: Visit Minnesota to commiserate with the nicest people on the planet in their native habitat, but skip the hotels and shack up with a friend (or in your RV)!

Diary of a start-up: Why you need to focus, focus and re-focus!
Andrew Needham explains why pitching to a famous retail entrepreneur made him realise the need to remain focused on his business' core proposition
Andrew Needham is founder and CEO of creative meeting and venue space booking platform Headbox. In his first blog as our Diary of a start-up, Needham discussed the value of 'founding moments' and the steps taken to launch his start-up business.
In his second blog, the entrepreneur shares four points to help you achieve focus in your start-up journey…
I was in an investor meeting with Nick Wheeler, the CEO and founder of Charles Tyrwhitt Shirts, a few weeks ago pitching the idea of HeadBox. We discussed a common challenge facing entrepreneurs when starting and growing businesses: the importance of staying focused on your company's core proposition.
We had both learnt from past experiences that letting yourself get distracted from this or trying to do too many different things too early leads to problems. It is hard to stay focused because when you're starting a business there are so many varied things to do in a short period of time.
Our conversation was a healthy reminder of a discipline I have been trying to stick to every day since launching HeadBox.
So, here are four steps I have followed to help me achieve more focus…
Write down your brand and value proposition
At the outset I wanted HeadBox to be clear about what we were going to stand for as a brand and the value I wanted us to create for both our 'Guests' and 'Hosts' by challenging the current and traditional way of searching, booking and paying for spaces.
The exercises we did as part of this forced us to be clear about what market we are going after, who our key audiences are; the problems we are trying to solve and why our solution is better and differentiated from the competition. Setting this out clearly has helped us drive the direction of so many other aspects of the business.
Have an ambitious product mission
We have set an ambitious product mission – the North Star for everything we do on a product level. This has helped us to stay focused at a product level; to prioritise what's important and what's not, as well as inspire us to test the boundaries of what's possible.
We believe that technology can solve big problems and change people's lives for the better and we want to keep proving that with HeadBox. At the same time our pursuit of Facebook's mantra "done is better than perfect" also means we stay real.
Set clear and realistic goals
Another important discipline I am sticking to in everything we're doing is setting clear and realistic goals that are time specific. The biggest goal we set ourselves was launching HeadBox just six months after starting the business and ensuring that when we went live we had over 1,000 amazing spaces on the platform.
Now that we are live, we have set new goals – not just in terms of the spaces we want to have on our platform in 2016 and beyond – but the targets we want to hit from a revenue, marketing and product point of view as well.
Setting the right goals for our business has given us purpose, momentum and direction.
Keep re-focusing
An important part of being focused in the early stages of starting a business is having the ability to re-focus. Most entrepreneurs will say that what you wrote in your business plan and what actually happens when your business is live are two very different things. So being able to adapt without veering off course is key.
Two things I have in place to help me re-evaluate where I am against my goals is having a strong board of advisors and/or directors around me who I have to report to through regular board meetings as well as receiving regular and constant feedback from our Hosts and Guests. Both groups help me to step back from the coalface and re-assess to check that what we're doing is delivering against our value proposition and that we are prioritising our focus in the best way.
I'm glad to say that Nick Wheeler has decided to invest in HeadBox so he's clearly happy with our focus so far!
