Netball Australia's community engagement program Australia Post One Netball has won a Community Award at the 2015 Australian Multicultural Marketing Awards.
The award recognises the program's contribution and commitment to engaging and including multicultural communities in its marketing and communications.
The accolade was bestowed on the program at a gala function in Sydney on Monday night and was proudly accepted by Netball Australia's General Manager – Community Engagement, Julia Symons.
Judges were impressed by One Netball's connection with multicultural audiences as well as its commitment to ensure that strong themes of social inclusion and the celebration of Australia's diversity are communicated throughout the netball community through the One Netball program.
In 2013 Netball Australia engaged creative agency TANK Branding to create a brand for the Australia Post One Netball program.
Critical to the success of the One Netball brand has been the utilisation of diverse imagery of the netball community, enabling Australians of all backgrounds to connect with the players, coaches, umpires, supporters and families depicted in One Netball initiatives.
"This Award is a wonderful acknowledgment of the team effort that has enabled the Australia Post One Netball program to connect with multicultural communities and to celebrate Australia's diversity," Symons said.
"From TANK Branding, who helped us to develop the brand in its infancy, the support of Netball Australia's Marketing and Communications team, our eight State and Territory Member Organisations and our fantastic partners at Australia Post, everyone plays their role in ensuring that the program continues to grow from strength to strength."
The Australia Post One Netball Program is an integral component in Netball Australia's overall strategic vision to introduce new participants and communities from diverse backgrounds to the sport and to enable all Australians to participate in a fun and inclusive netball environment.
"Another integral component of the Australia Post One Netball program has been the appointment of 19 inspirational One Netball Ambassadors including Geva Mentor, Kimberlee Green, Josie Janz-Dawson and Mo'onia Gerrard," Symons said.
"In addition to their netball prowess, the Ambassador group have visited almost 100 towns and cities across Australia so far in 2015, engaging communities new to netball, as well as recognising Clubs and Associations who are working tirelessly towards creating more inclusive, welcoming netball environments."
All eight Member Organisations have also played an important role in the development of the community connection with One Netball.
Activities run by the Member Organisations have included running Come & Try programs with community brokers, building relationships with local organisations representing diverse communities, running Inclusion NetSetGO programs and facilitating Connected Clubs & Communities Workshops with Clubs and Associations to educate the netball community about the importance of creating more inclusive netball environments.
Click here to find out more about how your Club or Association can learn to communicate and market more effectively to diverse communities, as well as learning about simple measures to develop fair, safe and inclusive netball communities.

San Francisco Travel Association Installs Eco-Friendly Street Banners
Destination & Tourism April 17, 2013
The San Francisco Travel Association has replaced its former tourism banners, made of PVC, around the city with banners made of eco-friendly material called EkoFlex. The replacements began in March. The EkoFlex fabric can safely be repurposed into making bags and other items after its initial use.
The new banners are part of the city's overall efforts in becoming an environmental leader. In 2012, Moscone Center received LEED Gold certification, the first convention center on the West Coast to attain that honor. San Francisco also has the largest fleet of hybrid taxis in the nation. And the city expanded its plastic checkout bag ban to all retail businesses, encouraging residents to bring their own bags.

Preliminary Accident Reports
June 2000 Issue
March 9, Sarasota, Fla. / Cessna 172 and Cessna 152
At about 10:35 EST, a Cessna 172K taxied into the path of a Cessna 152 on its takeoff roll on runway 14 at the Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport. The two occupants in each plane were killed. The accident was apparently the result of the tower controller mistaking the 172 for an airplane at another spot on the field and clearing it to taxi into position and hold. The 172 had been holding at an intersection, however, and taxied into the 152s path. For more information, see the May issue of Aviation Safety....

text: In order to raise money to get my social network off the ground, I am parting with a section of my epic comic collection. First up is my ENTIRE run of Steve Ditko Amazing Spider-Man issues! My run starts at issue number 4, featuring the 1st Sandman appearance, and stops at issue number 38. There are 25 pieces in all, including plenty of key issues; 1st Green Goblin, 1st Scorpion, 2nd Dr. Octopus and many others! Most have a very low opening bid of $19.99, with a few as low as $14.99 with NO RESERVE! It pains my soul to part with these, but I'm hoping I will have enough money to buy the entire collection before too long! The pics I added are of the actual issues I am selling.

6‑2, 6‑3
THE MODERATOR: Questions, please.
Q. You are playing very, very well. Do you have any explanation about that? Is Vallverdu giving you something new? Did you do something special? Because you are playing...
TOMAS BERDYCH: Well, I mean, it's been a very new thing, I mean, a few new things that, you know, has been on for me, and as you mentioned, I mean, for me it's a new team.
Well, let's go one by one. I start with Azuz, my fitness guy in IPTL. So it's been almost a month that I have been able to do some fitness with him, some fitness preparation, and it's been very good. It's been almost all the things that we have done there, has been very new to me.
You know, he's very professional in the sense that what he's doing, he find out very quickly what's my weak points and what's the things that I need to work on more. Immediately we start to do on that.
Really, I think, that's what I feel on the court, that my movement is improving quite a lot. Really, I think that was a very good move.
And then talking about Dani, I mean, we met with Dani for the week and maybe a week, 10 days, in Czech, and then we traveled to Thailand and already that we have managed to do a quite good preparation. What's very important is that it's a guy that he's very experienced and he knows quite a lot of, you know, the new things, new stuff.
I think the most important fact is that it's a guy from basically from the outside coming to my team. He see many things in the different eyes, which is very good and he is very important to me. I really like the way that we are working so far.
Q. (Question about spelling.)
TOMAS BERDYCH: It's Azuz Simcich.
Q. From where?
TOMAS BERDYCH: Croatia. He used to be, well, doing athletics, triple jump and then some sprints. But then when he stop he become a fitness trainer.
Q. (Off microphone.)
TOMAS BERDYCH: Well, I mean, for me, as a tall guy, I mean, the fitness and the movement on the court, it was definitely something that was a weak point. But it's not always just about you gonna do instead of do 10 sprints you're going to do 50 of them. It's also about how efficient you are and how able you can transform the power on the court.
I think that's what he discovered very quickly, and that's what we are working on constantly and daily, and that's very important. It's a lot of trying to get that, you know, flexibility and that range, range of motion for my body. That's what I definitely need.
Q. Can you talk about how you're feeling this week, your matches played? (Off microphone.)
TOMAS BERDYCH: Yeah, so far I'm feeling very good. I think it's a good follow‑up on that, you know, practice, preparation that I have done and then also for the change, that it's been only my team. And I'm very glad that, you know, the things that we were working on that I'm able to bring them up on the tennis court so far and be able to transform them in such a short time.
They are all kind of working, which is very good to me. And, yeah, I mean, it's four very good matches which I'm happy with. Some of them were in the tough conditions. Some of them were quite nice and pleasant, but, you know, now is the final. That's the last one and the most important one to go.
Q. What went right for you tonight?
TOMAS BERDYCH: Well, I mean, it's been quite similar with all of them. I mean, I managed to, you know, get the right game plan and then stick with that, tried to stay very close to the baseline, tried to stay on top of the opponent's game and trying to dictate the play with the shots and the selection shots that I want.
And also, so far the selection that I have been doing, you know, trying to really taking the right shots in the right moment. That's, you know, quite enough to be working well and making good result so far.
Q. (Off microphone.)
TOMAS BERDYCH: Well, you can always see with two different ways, two different views. I think it's not necessary to explain both of them. But for me this is the way how I went through the tournament. It's been so far quite easy by the result, but, you know, I still need to do my job and win those matches.
I'm really happy with the way I handled it so far, that I get to the final and, you know, just going to face a very tough opponent. I'm going to try to do my best to, you know, make a first trophy of the year.
Q. What makes David such a tough opponent?
TOMAS BERDYCH: Well, I mean, we already played, I mean, it's maybe like a week ago, that it's been exhibition match, but not in the way that, you know, we will have fun on the court and we really put a big effort to that match. I mean, we played almost three hours there, and it's been a pretty ‑‑it was really good. You know, it was a very tough one.
He's a big fighter. He's very solid from both sides, moving extremely well and very experienced guy.
So again, I'm going to need to bring my weapons, all the cards that I have, try to play with them tomorrow in the final.

Regulatory Failure and the Global Financial Crisis
An Australian Perspective
Edited by Mohamed Ariff, John H. Farrar and Ahmed M. Khalid
Chapter 7: Cost Consequences to the Economy and Finance
Ahmed Khalid
Ahmed Khalid 7.1 INTRODUCTION The global financial crisis (GFC) led to a high price being paid to stabilize the economies and to serious consequences for some 60 national economies. Originating from the alleged meltdown of the real-estate sector mainly from sub-prime loans (apparently) in the United States, the crisis led to the collapse of some major financial institutions around the globe. The negative impact of the crisis was felt in the developed, emerging and developing countries although the sources of the impact varied across groups. This chapter provides a detailed analysis of the impact of the crisis on the real sector of the economy. The precursors for the GFC may be traced back to a date as early as the 2000s, when the target rates by the Federal Reserve Bank in the US were extremely low, as low as 1 per cent, and returns for investors collapsed, prompting investors to seek higher returns in alternative markets via newer but riskier financial products. Since then, multiple factors including the housing market, changes in monetary policy and regulation of policies governing the banking and financial institutions and new technological development led to an increase in both demand for and supply of credits as well as the exposure of investors to higher risk investments. The root causes and so the origin of the GFC have been traced and explained in an earlier chapter of the book (see Chapter 2). The focus of this chapter is to understand and then analyse the costs and...

As we get down to the wire for editorial tweaks to The Five-Day Dig, I took one last look at the sex scene last night. Yes, there's only one sex scene, and — as you'll hear — I wasn't even sure about including that.
Throughout multiple rounds of self-edits, I've never felt sure about how graphically to treat the sex. As I've mentioned before, the book feels to me like general fiction (maybe mystery) with "strong romantic elements" rather than a flat-out romance. So if it attracts people who don't usually read romance, the sex could come as a shock to them.
On the other hand, the sex an important experience for the characters, and since I'm coming from a romance background, I've described it in quite a bit of detail. My philosophy about writing sex (absorbed in a workshop or article somewhere during my writing "career") is that you shouldn't edit — well, you should edit for craft, but not to censor yourself. Of course, I'm sure just about everyone self-censors. (Or don't they?)
The other reason I don't want to leave the scene behind closed doors (that is, delete it) is that I spent a lot of time writing it, and I like it. The beta readers who I asked about it seemed to like it, too. So …there it is.
If you think it might shock you, you can always skip a couple of pages when you sense it coming. (You should be able to sense it coming.)Tweet this

Allround LW Performance.FREERIDE | FREESTYLE
CORE Fusion 3 LW (147 x 44 cm) Next-level awesomeness in the slightest wind.
Unbelievably agile and light on its feet. We like to think of the 147 as a hybrid with class leading lightwind handling and the freestyle capability of its smaller brothers. It's perfect for beginners who need a confidence boost and heavier riders who enjoy unhooking in light winds. Its new Multi-Channels, Vario Rails and Deep-V keel will give you the control and response you'd expect from a much smaller board. The Fusion LW Medium. Lightweight greatness.
CORE Fusion 3 LW (152 x 46 cm) Next-level awesomeness in the lightest of winds.
The ultimate early planer and lightwind cruiser. Our biggest Fusion 3 sports a concave board outline (like a parabolic snowboard) and a performance window that reaches down to 7 knots. Concave or sidecut rails improve upwind tacks by forcing the board to naturally ride deeper thereby lengthening rail contact with the water. Wider tips promote early planing and keep you going through the lulls. The sidecut Fusion 3 LW feels smaller so it has the potential to handle more wind than you would normally expect. You can always depend on the double concave V-Keel to keep you under control if the wind picks up. Because CORE delivers next-level awesomeness in the lightest of winds.
LW 147x44 | LW 152x46
▪ CARTAN CARBON: Proprietary 30° biaxial carbon fiber weave optimizes torsion and longitudinal flex for a unique riding experience.
▪ VARIO RAILS: Variable rail thickness for better control.
▪ LW ROCKER: Optimized for light winds.
▪ 3D WOOD CORE: The heart of the Fusion 3 is marine grade, CNC milled Paulownia.

▪ MULTI-CHANNELS: Unbelievable grip and upwind tracking.

War Messiah are a band from Poland that plays a mixture of death and thrash metal and this is a review of their 2014 ep "Graveyard Feeding" which was released by All Seeing Eye Art.
A very old school thrash sound starts off the album before adding in blast beats and a mixture of screams which are in the more thrash vein and growls which bring out the death metal along with some melody which they also mix into the guitar solos and leads which also enhance the old school metal feeling of the record.
All of the musical instruments on the ep have a very powerful sound to them and the music is very old school sounding going back to a time where death metal had a more thrash orientated feeling 86-88 era to it while the growls on the album are where the true death metal elements really start to kick in and on one of the tracks there is a brief use of spoken word aprts beign utilized and the last track is very long and epic in length.
War Messiah are another young band playing a very old school style taking 80's thrash and the beginning era of death metal and combining them together along with a good amount of melody, the production has an old school feeling while also being modern at the same time while the lyrics cover anti religion, war, suicide and graveyard themes.
In my opinion War Messiah are a very great sounding mixture of death and thrash metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Kill Your Priest" and "Graveyard Feeling". 8 out of 10.

The Ballon d'Or is an annual prize awarded to the footballer who, in the opinion of experts outside the world of club football, has excelled during the preceding year, and have earned the title of 'Golden Ball'. The voting is by nomination, with the winner being decided on a points system, and it is now a global participatory event. The Ballon d'Or nominees list was just announced and as usual, the football world is completely abuzz.
Ballon d'Or results are usually announced in the beginning of December and the award ceremony is conducted in the first week of January.
Ballon d'Or Award Background
The present Ballon d'Or was created from the merging of two previous awards – The European Footballer of The Year and the FIFA Footballer of The Year. The European award had been created and run by the magazine 'France Football' since 1956, and the FIFA 'Player of The Year' was first awarded in 1996.
For many years after 2005, both prizes were awarded to the same player, and the two organizing bodies combined to award a joint prize. However, when the 'Global Ballon d'Or' was announced during the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, the previous collaboration was terminated after a 6-year relationship.
The Voting System
For the Ballon d'Or, footballers are nominated by international journalists, national team coaches, and captains. Each person is allowed to nominate three players – each with a diminishing number of votes. For instance, your first nominee would get five points, your second three points, and your third one point. The combined totals of each players 'votes' by all those entitled to make a selection, determine the winner.
Previous Winners & Past Patterns-Ballon d'Or Nominees
Previous winners of the original Ballon d'Or, right back to its creation in 1956, have included some of the most illustrious names in football.
The first ever winner was Stanley Matthews, the list has included names such as Kaka, Johan Cruff, Franz Beckenbauer, Eusebio and Van Basten. However, by far the most successful award winner has been Lionel Messi, with Christiano Ronaldo close on his heels, needing to win only one more award in order to equal Messi's tally. In 2017, of course, Christiano Ronaldo is once again on the list of nominees.
Ballon d'Or Nominees-2017
The full list of nominees contains 30 names – Increasingly the countries of origin are getting a wider spread, with the inclusion of players from formerly less well-represented or organized nations now producing world-class and exceptional players. In particular, it is indicative of the more global nature of world-class football, that the African nations are now also represented and it is no longer a list entirely populated by players from Latin America or Europe.
The 2017 list contains players from 17 different nations, and from three continents. France now is the best-represented country with 4 players, with single players coming from Croatia, Slovenia, Poland, England, Bosnia, Senegal, Colombia, and Gabon. It is probably more accurate to say that Brazil (3) has fallen behind France, for most who follow 'First-Class Football' this is seen as rather surprising. The surprise 'movers' up the table seem to be Belgium, who equal Brazil with 3 nominees.
The full list of players is as follows – (in alphabetical order in order not to imply 'ranking'!) –
Aubameyang (Bor.Dort/Germany), Benzema (Real Mad/France), Bonucci (Juventus/Italy),
Buffon (Juventus/Italy), Cavani (PSG/Uruguay), Coutinho (Liverpool/Brazil),
De Bruyne (Man.City/Belgium), De Gea (Man.U/Spain), Dybala (Juventus/Argentina),
Dzeko (Roma/Bosnia), Falcao (Monaco/Colombia), Griezmann (Ath.Mad/France),
Hazard (Chelsea/Belgium), Hummels (B.Mun/Germany), Isco (Real Mad/Spain),
Kroos (Real Mad/Germany), Kane (Tottenham/England), Kante (Chelsea/France),
Lewandowski (B.Mu/Poland), Mane (Liverpool/Senegal), Marcelo (Real Mad/Brazil),
Mbappe (Mon/PSG/France), Mertens (Napoli/Belgium), Messi (Bar/Argentina),
Modric (Real Mad/Croatia), Neymar (PSG/Brazil), Oblak (Ath.Mad/Slovenia),
Suarez (Barce/Uruguay), Ramos (Real Mad/Spain), Ronaldo (Real Mad/Portugal).
Ballon d'Or Winner Prediction-2017
Everyone who sits on the stand, or watches televised matches, whether they have a particular team they support or not, believes that they have an opinion on 'The Greats' and the 'Also-Rans'. Just as always, all those views would vary widely and would create many a good debate in the bar or in the sports club. The voting system for the Ballon d'Or nominees seems as fair as they can make it, but it is one hundred percent certain that many people reading the list above will throw their hands up in horror at who has been included – and more importantly, who has been omitted.
People's expectations of 'the beautiful game' differs greatly: some fans, like some national managers, like the tactics of a game finely balanced, with as much thought given to stopping the opposition scoring as given to the more 'high profile' strikers who are expected to win the games. Other managers, or fans, or indeed other journalists, want a high scoring game, end to end, with the team that gets the ball in the back of the net the most times winning the game. So, some people would see that it was just as 'right' to nominate a defender for the Ballon d'Or as a high profile striker. Others would see this as sacrilege!
Experts are of the opinion that this year's award will once again go to 'Cristiano Ronaldo' and I don't see how we can argue with that, considering he has been really decisive over the past few months. Messi has even been banned for the next 4 matches for cursing at the linesman, this would surely impact his chances. Barcelona, currently have a chance of winning 3 trophies, whereas Real Madrid can win 5. At the moment, our prediction favors Cristiano Ronaldo, and it's unlikely to change before the announcement in December.
So the list is populated by people with varying opinions, and hopefully, contains excellent players from all parts of the pitch. But does it? What do you think? Do you think that the goal scorers get too high a slice of the cake? Are they given too much kudos? Are they dependent upon others to 'assist' and do they invariably 'win' the game?
Who would be on your Ballon d'Or nominees list? It is hard to be impartial, but realistically it would not be your local team's top scorer, even though he has kept your team up or got them promoted and you personally owe him a debt of gratitude. But partiality and nostalgia apart, if you were given the five, three and one points to distribute amongst your three most highly regarded players, who would you choose, and in what order would you distribute the points?
Alternatively, you might agree completely with the already populated list (above) and if that is the case, you might easily know, even as you read this, who will win the Ballon d'Or 2017 because you must be thinking on exactly the same wavelength as the pundits who decided the outcome. My favorite player is in the list above – Cristiano Ronaldo. What about yours?

The business of distribution is based on logistics. Its complexity increases with the number of books processed. Most Hachette Livre distribution centers process up to 100,000 titles and can store more than a 100 million books. Invoicing, freight and managing returns contribute to making distribution a strategic link in the book's value chain. Digital books also need to be distributed and require specific expertise and infrastructure.

In the wake of so many stories about people speaking up against wrongdoing, disrespect, and ignorance, there's a lot of support being given to people who have opinions and aren't afraid to use them. Speaking up is so important, no matter what situation you're in. They teach us in elementary school to speak up against bullies, and they teach us later in life that every voice should be respected and heard. How many of us do that, though?
Unfortunately, we're finding that there are still people who don't want to rock the boat. That's the only way to make change, though! How do you know if you're more opinionated than the average person? Luckily the zodiac signs are here to help. They'll be able to tell you if you're the type of person who's loud and proud with your opinions, or if you're the type of person who'd rather keep things quiet. We've ranked from the least to the most opinionated, so you'll know right away if you need to work on sharing your opinions. Don't get us wrong, though; it's not a flaw to keep your opinions to yourself. It's necessary, sometimes. Just take a look at some of these benefits, both on the least opinionated side and the most opinionated side.
Here are the zodiac signs ranked from least to most opinionated:
24 Gemini Women: She's Got An Opinion, But It Changes With Every Whim
The least opinionated of all is the Gemini woman. You might think that such a strong and passionate sign would have no problems with giving her opinion, but think again. Gemini women are actually some of the least opinionated signs because they're so changeable. The fleetingness of their thoughts makes for an incredibly difficult person to pin down; you never know if their favorite color is yellow or blue, pink or green. They don't do much to help you either! While Geminis are great people to talk to, and we'd definitely call them people persons, they're too easily swayed by everyone else to know what's going on. They don't let themselves know themselves, which makes for a big lack of permanent opinion. But hey… They sure are passionate about their opinion of the hour. Just be ready for it to change!
23 Gemini Men: He Can't Make Up His Mind And Doesn't Want To Talk About It
Gemini men are a totally different thing from Gemini women. While a Gemini woman's opinion changes with her whims, a Gemini man can't seem to form one at all. He's stuck in his feelings of indecision, unsure of whether or not he actually believes what he thinks he believes. His mind is easily changed, but you'd never know. He doesn't tend to talk about his opinions outside of his very intimate relationships. The people he trusts know his thoughts, and especially know how changeable they are. These are the only folks in the world who are able to see the Gemini man for what he is. Others see him as flickering back and forth between tasks and conversations, always searching for the next exciting thing. They don't know that deep down, he really can't figure out what he thinks.
22 Libra Women: She Likes Things Fair And Square, But Doesn't Always Know What To Do
The problem with Libras is that they're so dead set in their views of right and wrong, but they don't always know what to do about it. They're very indecisive, despite the fact that they're so sure about what's right and what's wrong. This indecision is often born out of insecurity. They don't necessarily know whether or not other people will agree with them, which makes them worried about speaking up. For a timid Libra, it's a big step! Libra women are often worried about speaking up, especially if they're in a male-dominated scenario. Libra ladies, we're here to tell you to not be worried! Your sense of justice will always lead you right; you just need the vocals to make it heard, so other people can jump on board!
21 Libra Men: He Judges People Who Don't Follow His Morals, But Won't Say Anything About It
Libra men aren't necessarily as gentle and sensitive as the Libra woman. While they both have a strong moral code, the Libra woman wants others to follow it… While the Libra man just judges when they don't. Libra men believe that there's one right way to do things, and that's the fair and just way. While that's true in a lot of cases, some people don't follow that. The Libra man will never do anything to change them; he'll just judge them from the sidelines. He'll never let himself get pulled into something he doesn't believe in, but he also isn't the type of forceful personality to stop it from happening. The bright side? If someone asks for his opinion, he never hesitates to give it… But offering it is off the table.
20 Pisces Women: She'll Hold Her Tongue To Avoid Criticism… Unless She Trusts You
The Pisces woman is never going to hold back her judgments. However, she will keep them only within her close circle of friends. She's the queen of making sure only the right people know what's going on in her head, while everyone else sees her perfectly-put-together surface. She's great at making people feel like she's in control and calm even if deep down below she's anything but. This is a talent and one that we wish we had. Unfortunately, it does mean that she tends to keep her opinions to herself. She doesn't like the fact that she might have to give someone bad news, as she cares deeply about people. This all points to the fact that, unless she trusts you, you're never going to know what's really going on in her head.
19 Pisces Men: He's A Know-It-All, But Doesn't Always Trust His Gut
The Pisces man is similar to the Pisces woman; he never really wants to give his true opinions unless he's sure he can trust you. The same thing can be said for himself, though. He's never going to let himself be the know-it-all that he is because he just doesn't trust the fact that he's right. He tends to put other people before himself and thinks that other people will always know better than him. It's a shame, really! Pisces men are smart. When combined with their sense of empathy and care it makes for a very observant, intelligent guy. If he does speak up and make an intelligent comment, you can be sure that he means what he says. It's not easy for him to put himself out there like that, so you know he's right.
18 Sagittarius Women: She Likes To Take Opinions In Rather Than To Share Her Own
Sagittarians are incredibly boisterous, outgoing, and LOVE to talk and adventure. They're all about the freedom, and don't like to be tied down… By anything or anyone. Sagittarius women live for summer and love to run around without having to worry about obligations. Don't think she's dumb or impulsive, though. Sagittarius women are very smart, even if they do like to live in the moment rather than think about what comes next. We don't judge, though. The mindfulness of the Sagittarius woman has given her brilliant listening skills. She's much more comfortable listening to another person's opinion rather than giving her own. It's not that she's passive! She's just so ready to consider another point of view; we call it empathy, and that's never a bad thing.
17 Sagittarius Men: He's Too Busy Experiencing The World To Push His Own Opinions
Sagittarius men are kind of similar to Aquarius men. You remember how Aquarians like to live in their own world? Sagittarius men are almost the same way, except the world they're caught up in is the real world. They love adventure and love discovering new things. They'll never stop wondering about what's over the horizon, and they'll never stop asking questions. While this makes them an excellent adventure partner, it doesn't make them a great conversationalist. They have opinions, but they tend to forget them (or change them) the second something new comes along. While this makes them perfect empaths, it doesn't make them great pillars. That's not a bad thing, though! Sagittarius men are incredibly valuable to have in a group, as they're very driven. And they'll commit to any cause they're passionate about!
16 Cancer Women: She Keeps Her Opinions To Herself
Cancers are smart. They love a good book and tend to classify themselves as introverts rather than extroverts. This doesn't mean they don't have opinions though! Cancers are very home-based. They don't like to tread too far outside of their comfort zones and prefer to keep their thoughts to themselves. Cancer women are very much the type who prefer to have a one on one conversation rather than go to a huge party. This can make it hard to meet people, but once you do get talking… Boy oh boy, you can keep a conversation going. You're inquisitive, which means you're going to like learning about people even if they have different opinions from you. You don't show everything all at once though, which is a way to protect yourself and keep your gentle heart safe. Unfortunately, this means that your opinions often stay inside.
15 Cancer Men: If He Does Share His Opinion, He Makes Sure It's Pleasant And Neutral
Cancers don't like to get on anyone's bad sides. Negativity is not a trait that they like to have in their lives, which means they'll do anything to stay on the pleasant and neutral side of things. People like Cancers because they're stable. They're dependable, and they like to have their own sanctuary to escape the harsh realities of the outside world. It's a way to protect themselves, as we mentioned in the Cancer women section. While a Cancer man is typically more upfront than the Cancer woman, it's clear that he's just as worried about getting on people's bad sides as she is. He's incredibly politically correct, and often will only share his opinion if he can spin it in such a way that it's pleasant and not cumbersome.
14 Leo Women: She'll Give Her Opinion, But Only To Get The Attention Back Onto Her
Leo women are notorious for wanting the spotlight. Many stars are Leos, and many of the most popular girls you know are probably Leos too! They tend to stay front and center of any group, no matter how much people try to push them back. Leos are resilient, especially the women. Nobody keeps them down, though people might try. However, the luminosity of a Leo can fade over time. Especially when something new and sparkly grabs people's attention. This is when the lioness banks on her keen mind to bring the attention back to her. Her brain is a whirlwind of ideas always, and often times she'll secure her place in the spotlight by putting some of those opinions on display. Luckily she's usually got some pretty good ideas!
13 Leo Men: He Likes To Talk, Whether He's Got A Relevant Opinion Or Not
Unlike the Leo woman, a Leo man usually needs to put some more effort into getting the attention on to him. He tends to use his mouth to keep all eyes on him. Unfortunately, that usually means that he's talking for the sake of talking, without really saying anything. He certainly has opinions. Any passionate person does, and Leos are some of the most passionate folks out there. These guys will fight for anything and are often seen in the middle of a huge group. They tend to orchestrate and organize and keep themselves busy by staying involved in everyone's lives. It's not a bad thing! If you do find yourself in a group with a Leo man though, you should be prepared to listen to a million different opinions… And not all of them are going to be relevant.
12 Scorpio Women: She's Opinionated With People She Knows Wants (Or Needs) To Hear It
Scorpios are so caring, but not everyone believes that. People know that Scorpio women are more "sensitive". They care about other people's thoughts and feelings, and think the world is better if we all respect and love each other. However, the Scorpio woman has a tough outer shell. She's not going to let just anybody in. She'd rather be a support than be supported, which means her help can come across as kind of… Rough. She likes the tough love approach because it means she gets to help people without seeming like a softie. Because she's a little protected, though, her advice can feel more like judgements. Don't be fooled! She really does care. The fact that she's letting you in on her opinions is more than enough proof that she trusts you.
11 Scorpio Men: He's Got Opinions, But Not Everyone Listens Closely Enough To Hear Them
Scorpio men are in a similar boat. They don't like to be open with their thoughts and feelings, but they care about people enough to want them to be okay when times are tough. The Scorpio man tends to take the quiet approach. He knows that the people who are important to him will listen to what he has to say; everyone else will ignore him. And that's okay. He doesn't mind it because it's proof that the people who want to hear will hear him, and the people who care, care. He's sharp, with a keen intellect that can easily cut through the din. People value this in the Scorpio man, and those that are wise enough to listen to him will always walk away with some great advice. Don't be fooled: it's not that he's not opinionated, he's just not screaming about it like everyone else.
10 Aquarius Women: Her Independence Means She's Always Eager To Speak Up
While Aquarians don't have the stubbornness that an Aries does, and don't have the intelligence and quick wit that a Virgo does, Aquarians have something else. Aquarius women are some of the most strong-willed, independent people you'll ever meet. We love how outgoing they are, and how they're so quick to jump into all the exciting parts of life. You'll never meet an Aquarius woman who's afraid of adventure, and you'll find that because she's so impulsive, she's always eager to speak up… Even if she doesn't fully understand what she means. She asks more questions than she gives answers, but there's never a hesitation. While she's impulsive, she's not dumb. She's sharp and knows who she is. Her will has gotten her through everything, and it'll continue to… Eager commentary or not!
9 Aquarius Men: He'll Give His Opinion… But Only When He Gets Out Of His Head
While Aquarius Women are more of the adventurous ilk, Aquarius men are stuck on the other side of the coin. They like to adventure, but only in their own heads. Aquarians are one of the signs that are the most creative. They like to build their own little worlds and live in them until something better comes along. Sometimes this takes the form of a new writing project or a new video game. Anything they can get lost in. Aquarius men are particularly prone to getting sucked into this state, which is why he's one of the lesser opinionated signs. He's got thoughts, and he'll speak without hesitation. But dragging him out of his world to have that conversation is difficult. He'd rather be inside something than inserting himself into someone else's life, which makes offering an opinion difficult for him.
8 Taurus Women: Relaxed, But Opinionated, She'll Speak Up Only If Something Is Wrong
Taurus women know when and when not to waste their breath. They have opinions, obviously, but because they tend to be a little more relaxed when they go through the world they don't always need them to be heard. While Taurus women know what's right and wrong, they usually don't bother adding to the din if they're on the side of the majority. And if the majority is wrong? She won't hesitate to speak up. And if they're not listening? Well, she'll just speak louder. If she knows she's right, she'll stop at nothing to make herself heard. She's driven by a fire to improve people's lives, and she'll make sure that she's always working towards it. Whether it's better housing, better accessibility to services, or more justice in the world, she'll only put her effort into the things that are right.
7 Taurus Men: He's Got A Bad Habit Of Mansplaining, But It Comes From A Good Place
You've heard of mansplaining before, right? The process of having something explained by a man, despite the fact that you've either already explained it to him, or he's not giving you an opportunity to explain to the group despite you being the authority on the subject. It sucks. And Taurus men are the worst for it because of their stubborn type of intelligence. Luckily, however, you can write it off as him just wanting everyone to be on the same page. He doesn't see it as "mansplaining". He sees it as "reaffirming the communication that's happened already". Tauruses are ALL about communication. They like people to be open, clear, and honest when they're talking. Unfortunately, it comes across as annoying and self-centered. He really does care, though!
6 Virgo Women: She's Respectful, But She'll DEFINITELY Make Her Opinion Heard
A Virgo woman is one of the most intelligent signs out there. Not only does she have a deep capacity for intuition, she's also pragmatic enough to know when she needs to follow her heart or follow her head. Her mind is sharp, and her opinions are well-informed. Unlike the Aries and the Capricorns, she is willing and able to have her mind changed. She just needs to be presented with the proper facts and given enough time to consider all the angles. She's not shy about her thoughts either. She knows the only way to learn is to put herself out there. She never hesitates to say anything, and she almost always gets people on her side. And if they don't believe her? Her intelligence says to reexamine her opinion on something; sometimes it even makes her change her mind!
5 Virgo Men: He Thinks He Knows Best, And A Lot Of The Time He Does!
Virgo men are also intelligent, but they're not as intuitive as Virgo women. Virgo men are more rationally intelligent than any other sign, and are often the ones who'll be pointing out "this is a bad idea". They're not the most spontaneous, and they don't really like to make change… Unless it's for the better. Because Virgo men are almost always working towards the greater good (either for themselves or for the world), they tend to think that they know the best. Honestly? Most of the time they do. They've examined all the options and know exactly what's going to be the best in the situation. Don't worry, though. These guys aren't like Capricorns. They know how to listen to the facts, and aren't closed-minded enough to think that they're still right when the world says differently.
4 Capricorn Women: She Won't Even Listen To Another Opinion, Even If It's Right
Capricorn women are known for being a little… Shall we say stubborn? It's not that they refuse to listen to anyone else. In fact, Capricorn women are great listeners. Unfortunately, she isn't the type to consider anyone else's opinions. She tends to get stuck on one idea or thought and won't budge from it. Capricorn women aren't the type to quickly change their minds. This can get you into trouble when your partner wants to do something like take you to a new restaurant, introduce you to some new friends, or even start a new tv show with you. Your first reaction is "yuck", and you're not afraid to tell them. Don't forget to keep an open mind. You never know when your new favorite place is around the corner!
3 Capricorn Men: More Stubborn Than Opinionated, But He'll Still Tell You Why You're Wrong
Capricorn men aren't necessarily opinionated, but they're certainly more stubborn than your average zodiac sign. Capricorns, as we discussed in the female section, react with opposition first and foremost. For Capricorn men, this means that you usually won't take advice very well. You don't tend to listen to anyone telling you you're wrong because in your head you're never wrong! You don't hesitate to tell others why they're wrong, though. Your opinions are based on your dislike of different things, which means you're always going to be more outspoken about things you hate rather than things you like. Don't forget to bring more love into your life, and let yourself glow with the positives as well as the negatives. And remember: If you don't like being wrong, other people won't like it either.
2 Aries Women: Good Luck Trying To Get Your Opinion In! She Doesn't Want To Hear It
Aries are some of the toughest signs of the zodiac. They think they know right no matter what and are stubborn enough to stick by their opinions even if proven wrong. This isn't a bad thing, though. Aries women are loyal, and you'll find if you're lucky enough to be with an Aries woman that you'll never have a problem figuring out what she thinks about something (or someone). Aries women, you know you have more thoughts than the average person. You're the most opinionated, even if you're not super informed. You like to go with your gut and will cling to that no matter what the world is telling you. Don't be afraid to loosen up sometimes. Opinions are great, but you need to be willing to hear what the world is saying.
1 Aries Men: He'll Steamroll You On Any Topic… Even If He Doesn't Know Much About It
Aries Men are tied for first in terms of being the most opinionated out there. While the Aries woman will tell you all of her thoughts about everything without giving you an opportunity to talk about anything, Aries men will pretend to give you an opening. He might not be the first to talk, but he'll talk the longest… Even if he doesn't know anything about the topic. He needs to be right, as it's part of Aries's zodiac qualities. He likes to know, even if he doesn't really care about what the information means. Unfortunately, this means that he'll talk, and talk, and TALK about information that may or may not be relevant. He might pause for a breath, but don't think that that's your opportunity to talk… He'll just keep going.

Tupolev ANT-20
Tupolev had already, in mid-1931, drawn a passenger derivative of the ANT-16 powered by four geared M-35R engines, designated Tupolev ANT-20. To meet the new demand, which was from the start named for the writer it honoured, Tupolev kept the ANT-20 designation but further extended the outer wings and made other minor changes. The most important modifications were that, lacking the desired engines, Tupolev had to add two more on the leading edge, outboard of the existing four. Then, finding that this was still only marginally enough power, he added a final pair, making eight in all, in a tandem push/pull nacelle.
Aerodynamically the new giant was almost an extended-span ANT-16, but with huge wheel spats. Almost the whole exterior was covered in skin with corrugations of 50mm (2in) pitch and 16mm depth, thickness being the usual 0.3-0.8mm. The enormous wing, by far the biggest ever designed up to that time, had CAHI-6 profile, thickness/chord ratio decreasing from 20 per cent at the end of the tapered centre section to 10 per cent near the tips which, unusually for Tupolev, were rounded. To achieve the best possible lift/drag ratio the aspect ratio was 8.2. This was the first time such an aspect ratio had been used on a heavy aircraft.
Each outer wing carried two engines and had a span of 26.18m (85ft l0 in), over which the chord tapered to 3.2m at the final rib, carrying the screwed- on tip. Including the double rib at the side of the fuselage there were ten A-ribs on each side of the aircraft, interspersed by lighter L-section ribs and the multiple spanwise stringers which inboard were built-up triangular Warren girders. Experience with the ANT-16 indicated that the very long ailerons should be made in four sections, to prevent the hinges from binding due to flexure of the wing. For rail transport the wing could be unbolted into ten sections.
The fuselage had a cross section fractionally wider than that of the ANT-16, namely 3.5m (138in), the height being 2.5m (98.4in), or the same as the depth of the wing at the root. It was made in sections F-1 to F-5, with steel eye/lug bolted joints at the four principal tubular longerons. Most of the structure was made from standard profiles, but highly-stressed members were thick tube or special tetrahedral profiles built up from riveted sections, sometimes with lightening holes. Again the skin was mainly 50mm by 16mm corrugated, with small smooth areas of stressed skin.
Normal usable floor area was 109sq m (l.173sq ft), though this varied according to the reason for each flight. Depending on the requirement, equipment could include a 'voice from the sky' loudspeaker system, an audio recording studio, a pharmacy and a leaflet dispensing system. With most of the special equipment removed, the ANT-20 could comfortably seat seventy-two passengers, with a normal operating crew of eight. In this configuration red carpet was laid down in the passenger areas. Entry was via a large section of F-2 which hinged down with integral stairs, or by doors on each side at the trailing edge.
A total of 9,400 litres (2,068gal) of fuel could be housed in twenty-eight riveted aluminium tanks arranged in groups of four and eight in each outer wing, feeding into a collector tank on each side. All throttle linkages were connected to the three engineer stations. Moving on from the 'fighter cockpit' of the ANT-14, Tupolev gave the ANT-20 three such cockpits, each with four front windows, a metal aft fairing and hinged roof providing access to the aircraft upper surface. The wing engineers were just inboard of engines 2 and 7, and the fuselage engineer was under the nacelle on the right side of the fuselage.
Bearing in mind the enormity of the task, the design and construction of the ANT-20 was remarkably quick.
The monster aircraft joined the MG squadron on 18 August 1934. At one time it was fitted with a complicated system of electric lamps under the huge wing with which slogans could be displayed at night, but this proved predictably erratic in reliability and was removed. Later all the upper surfaces were painted red, adding a tonne to empty weight, and the registration was changed to 1-20. A routine was established whereby a crew of twenty managed all the on-board equipment when no (or few) passengers were being carried, reduced to eight when the propaganda equipment was replaced by passengers. Many of the latter were high officials, but others were people being rewarded for public service or for breaking output records.
Early in the programme Tupolev schemed the ANT-20V heavy bomber. This would have had an unchanged wing and engines but a bulbous fully glazed nose, large chin gondola, a taller and more rounded vertical tail, internal and external carriage for up to 10 tonnes of bombs, and defensive armament of two Oerlikon 20mm cannon and six 7.62mm DA or ShKAS machine-guns. Limited to a gross weight of 41,000kg, it would have had a poor performance, the calculated maximum speed being 230km/h at 3,500m, the climb 27min to 3,000m and the range only 1,300km with a bombload of a mere 2 tonnes (4,4101b). This project was overtaken by the even bigger ANT-26, TB-6.

The old wholesale business model is becoming obsolete these days, particularly in certain areas of the country, which is why we're introducing this new website
Vernon, CA (PRWEB) January 14, 2015
As part of a company-wide goal to bring wholesale into the 21st Century, NUX Group, Inc. will launch a new website tailored to support wholesale distributors rather than consumers.
The company, which sells American-made athletic apparel and accessories for women, already has a site for general consumers to purchase stylish athletic wear, but the wholesale site will be geared toward helping retailers with their wholesale planning and purchasing.
"This website will hopefully take the guesswork out of shopping and will also eliminate the need to sift through many pages of 'Available To Sell' lists that sales reps and retailers often have to go through," said company President Malek Neman.
Retailers will be able to use the website's merchandising tools to display and present NUX clothing in their stores. Guides and video tutorials will be provided to help retailers by suggesting various merchandising options.
Retailers will need to sign in with a private username or password which will allow them to log in and view information not available to the general public. Products will be categorized by price, availability, color and other categories, and each product listing will be accompanied by a detailed photograph and a video of the item on a live model.
The new website will also give retailers a window into NUX's available inventory so that they can gauge how much product to purchase and whether or not to stock up on something at any given time.
"The old wholesale business model is becoming obsolete these days, particularly in certain areas of the country, which is why we're introducing this new website," Neman said. "Yes, we do the tradeshows, we exhibit and travel, but if you can't make it to the shows, simply log in with the username and password and you can view all the specials and sales from the website."
Neman acknowledged that traveling to trade shows is becoming more expensive, especially for smaller business owners. The website will help retailers and wholesalers access NUX Group, Inc. products from wherever they happen to be and their products even ship internationally.
NUX is a activewear & lifestyle brand for women. "Our brand philosophy is we don't produce for super athletes, we produce for super women," said Neman. "We try to provide outfits that women can wear to the gym and then use our popular "Athleisure" items to finish up their errands around town afterwards."
About NUX Group, Inc.
NUX Group, Inc. is an Vernon, California based company that provides active wear for inspired living to women that do it all. Since 2008, NUX Group, Inc. has manufactured all of their products in the U.S. For more information on NUX Group, Inc., please visit nuxusa.com.

This page is to support the teachers with how PB4L works at Arakura School. It has the processes and systems for how PB4L is organised and how we do things.
Each Week
MANA cards are to be given out at any stage at school for certain behaviours.
Teachers are to fill these out and give them to the student.
The student then comes and puts these in the MANA Card box by the office.
Filling out the MANA Card:
- Student Name at the top, followed by their Room Number.
- Find the Student's house group by asking them or finding it on eTap.
- Circle the MANA Value that they were demonstrating.
- Write down the reason for giving the MANA Card. Note: this should be an observed behaviour from the Expectation's Matrix. It can also be found using the Teacher Handbook and the MANA App available for teachers.
Whenever there is a major behaviour incident, the PB4L Form must be filled out in eTap by the Duty Teacher or Classroom Teacher. These teachers need to decide on who is going to enter the incident.
The PB4L Form only needs to be filled out for Major or Repeater Minor offences. These are also listed on the form to give you a guide.
The PB4L Form is used to collect data on the time, location, class, teacher, and students behaviour, and sets goals for us as a school as to what gaps we need to address in the overall school behaviour system. It is important that it is filled out for each incident.
An easy way to distinguish a Major and a Minor behaviour is using Red Zone. If it is a Red Zone offence (either through the three warning system, or a straight Red Zone offence) then it needs to be entered into eTap.
In eTap:
- Sign into eTap using your teacher account.
- Under "General Management" click on the Guidance button.
- Select your group (usually your own class) and choose "Use pupils from this group only".
- Click on the "PB4L" grey button at the top.
- Fill out the form with the relevant details of the incident.
- Click on Save Incident when you have finished entering the information into the form.

The grape-vine is an ancient plant that from millions of years is present in temperate zones of the planet; only by a few thousand years, however, has begun to produce wine. First the Sumerians, then the Egyptians and the Greeks, and in the end the Etruscans. Already at the time of the Roman Empire, there were about 140 types of wine.
Today, Italy is the first country in the world for wine production and Europe holds 80% of world production.
Among the various existing species, the most important is vitis vinifera to which belong almost all the fruit varieties. The grape-vine can live and fructify only where there are the four seasons.

Can anyone tell me a significant advantage of either of these interfaces over one another? Also, I may be mixing threads here, but is it possible to use the inputs as outputs on the MOTU? Is either unit known for higher sound quality/latency? I currently have a Presonus Audiobox (just 2 outputs) and wanted to expand to surround sound/increase my sound quality.
Thanks for the advice!

It may speak volumes that when I read the one-word prompt for today it only took me a split second to think of something to write about. Actually, a flurry of ideas ran through my head in a flash when I saw the word 'Argument'. So many arguments, so little time. I am not proud of them, not many anyway. I especially am not fond of thinking of those that I have engaged in with my beloved….but there they are.
I can recall one of my early ones; not the first argument, I am sure, but one of the early ones, from when I was six or seven years old. I was at school, Centerville Elementary in Lancaster PA, and I was in the second grade. There was a kid from one of the younger grades and a friend of mine, I think we were just waiting inside until our bus was there to pick us up. I was telling these two, or trying to tell them, how old this kid was based on his grade. In my mind, you were a certain age for each grade; although I always started the school year at one age and finished at another….But I was convinced of this kid's age (why?! why did I care?!) and I was determined to convince him of how old he was, because my powers of reasoning have always been superior.
Again, this kid is younger than me, but we're the same size (I was always among the smallest in my class–every class). At some point his response to all of this is to punch me in the stomach. Oof! Well, I've never been much of a fighter, and I think deep down I saw some justice in this response, so I took it and got on the bus to go home.
Okay, enough of that story. It's not the whole point, it's just an example to share. You see, what I want to explain is that I realize I am a very literal person. Moreover, and I think it is related to my literality, is that I have a hard time being misunderstood. (I also have a hard time being wrong, that is true; I probably need to write a bunch about that as well, but this page only has so much room…) But truly, being misunderstood is tough, really tough for me. Even if I am not trying to prove someone else wrong, I find that I will go to great lengths to make myself understood. And the thing is, that often leads to arguments, or anyway, it doesn't help an argument get resolved.
I no longer have the single-minded immaturity that I present in my age/grade example….but I still engage in these types of dialogue. Perhaps the hardest for me is in my work, which is all customer service. There are times when I must simply nod and say thank you and let the customer have their opinion. But oh! the urge to explain can be a hard one to suppress. Yay for arguments!
