At the beginning of the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity the Co–Chairs of the Irish Inter–Church Meeting encouraged member churches to use this global initiative as an opportunity to come together in reflection, prayer and fellowship:
"The Week of Prayer for Christian Unity, which traditionally begins today 18th January, is an important opportunity for shared reflection which reminds us of our connection to our fellow Christians near and far, and encourages us to pray together for issues that are of shared concern. This year's material has been prepared by the churches of the Caribbean, a region that has suffered some of the worst effects of global inequalities, injustice and human rights abuses. The issues addressed in the resources include human trafficking and modern–day slavery, forms of injustice which are sadly familiar to many people in our churches who have been working to raise awareness of these terrible crimes on the island of Ireland, and provide support to victims. This year's theme includes strong messages about human dignity and overcoming violence, as well as a powerful call to reconciliation 'that all may be free'. Our member churches are already involved in many different types of shared initiative to show care for and solidarity with the most vulnerable, those who are marginalised or victims of injustice. The Week of Prayer for Christian Unity encourages us to support that work through prayer and reflection, inspiring us to go further and do more throughout the rest of the year."

by Ian Marshall, ITTF Publications Editor (Interviews by Francesca Bullock, British Para Team Press Officer)
Now the young man born and raised in the heart of England in the city of Birmingham has been recognised for his efforts.
He has become an honorary member of the UK (United Kingdom) Sport's Coaching Fellowship, an organisation which aims to champion the coaching profession and support the development of world class coaches within the United Kingdom.
"Greg was selected by the Fellows themselves to join them as a result of his sustained coaching success on the world stage, his commitment and growth to self-development through the Elite Programme and for his passion for coaching. Greg's commitment to the Elite Programme saw him develop both as a coach and personally, contributing to the fantastic results of his athletes and inspiring the nation." Chris Stott, Elite Programme Coordinator at UK Sport
Most impressively, Greg Baker is one of nine coaches from a range of sports who have graduated this year from the United Kingdom's Sport's Elite Coaching Programme; at 31 years of age he is the youngest to receive a Fellowship.
"I am absolutely delighted and privileged to be offered a place on UK Sport's Coaching Fellowship. I am extremely passionate about coaching and what it can do to change people's lives and the impact it has on elite performance. Great Britain has an excellent and ever developing coaching workforce and I believe the Fellowship can help to bring those coaches together to share knowledge, best practice and experiences to create an even stronger British coaching system. I look forward to continuing to develop my own coaching experience and helping in any way I can to improve the direction and shape of coaching in the UK." Greg Baker
Make no mistake Greg Baker joins the best of the best. He lines up alongside the likes of Sir David Brailsford, Jürgen Gröbler, Baroness Sue Campbell and Malcolm Arnold OBE
Sir David Brailsford, in his role as Performance Director, took British cycling to totally unprecedented levels within the United Kingdom; notably eight gold medals at the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games. Similarly, Jürgen Gröbler guided British rowing to new heights, as did Malcolm Arnold in athletics, whilst to find the equal of promoting women in sport, Baroness Sue Campbell has no equal.
It was in 2001 that Greg Baker turned his attention to coaching having enjoyed a quite illustrious junior career; he represented England at five European Youth Championships, in turn becoming the country's no.1 ranked player in the Under 12, Cadet and Junior age groups.
Later in 2006 he assumed a coaching role with the Great Britain Para Team; working alongside Gorazd Vecko, the Performance Director, he was instrumental in raising the number of medals won at the Beijing Paralympic Games from zero to four at the London 2012 Paralympic Games.
Impressively at the 2015 European Para Championships, Great Britain secured no less than 11 medals, before in Rio de Janeiro, in addition to Rob Davies, Will Bayley won Men's Singles Class 8 gold before joining forces with Aaron McKibbin and Ross Wilson to secure bronze in Men's Team Class 6-8.
"Greg's commitment and dedication to Para table tennis has been a significant factor in the success of the team over the past five years. He is always looking to improve and he fully deserves the recognition from UK Sport and the Fellowship. His enthusiasm and energy are a great example to any coach and an inspiration to the athletes in our squad." Gorazd Vecko, Performance Director, British Para Table Tennis Team
Notably as a coaching career progressed, Greg Baker was selected for the Elite Coaching Programme. He took part in a three year course of personal and professional development from 2014 to 2017, both as part of a group and individually. Importantly he had unparalleled access to expertise, technology and experiences from both within and outside the sports industry.
"The Elite Programme has been a great experience and has taught me a lot about leadership and how to manage a team of people as well as providing valuable advice on coaching. I really enjoy working with Para athletes because of the range of disabilities involved and the challenge that presents. To take a group of athletes from Beijing in 2008 where we didn't win any medals to winning three medals in Rio, including beating China in the team event after they beat us comfortably eight years ago, has been very rewarding and I'm very proud of what we have achieved as a team." Greg Baker
Currently Greg Baker is based in Sheffield at the English Institute of Sport, the home for the British Para Team.

There is a new update available for the MyHeritage mobile app. The mobile app is available for Apple iOS (for iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch) and for Android smartphones and tablets.
It is now easier than ever to explore and share your family history on the go. Capture and share family photos and memories right from your mobile device, invite family members to contribute to your family tree and update your tree at family get-togethers.
While there are numerous new features in the update, the one that impressed me the most is the capability to find your ancestors in MyHeritage's collection of more than 8 billion historical records. These capabilities bring the mobile app to par with the full version of the website.
You are now able not just to search all collections at once, but also to search within any specific collection of historical records.
You can perform a general search or search within a specific category such as Census & Voters Lists, Family Trees, Birth, Marriage & Death and more. If you want to narrow it down even further, you can search within subcategories such as U.S. Census. U.K. & Ireland Census, and Nordic Census.
You are also able to search within a specific collection like the 1940 United States Federal Census or Ellis Island and other New York Passenger Lists, 1820-1957.
That is only the tip of the iceberg. Full details may be found in the MyHeritage Blog at: https://blog.myheritage.com/2017/10/new-update-to-the-myheritage-mobile-app.

Texting, tweeting, facebooking, web-surfing, emailing and social networking are the toys of the so-called ING (Internet Next Generation). Like their parents, this generation must contend with playground bullies. Often, a child will not even know the name of their tormentor. The victim's parents may feel helpless because they have no recourse or tools to protect their child online. The problem is the most frequent threat a child faces online. All episodes of bullying are serious. Dismissing them as inconsequential could have grim consequences that include depression, dropping grades, school truancy and health problems.
Parents themselves ultimately must take up the responsibility of instilling the right framework in their child and they have the power and right to ban and control their children from accessing adult content. I think the government haven't an appropriate system to filter the adult content on Internet and cannot develop the right mindset in one child's mind. It is parents themselves who wield the ultimate control and power over their child. Thus, the responsibility also lies on parents to control and monitor their children.
Educating your kids
But, as always, common sense prevails: Tell your kids that the same rules they use when walking down a street apply when they surf the Net. Some good guidelines are following below:
· Set guidelines for how your child uses the computer and discuss those guidelines with your child.
· Don't let your child give out personal information, such as address, phone number, or school name, online.
· Don't let your child arrange for online meetings with a stranger or send his or her photograph.
· Tell your children to come to you immediately if someone sends them messages that they don't like.
Controlling kids' access
No matter how safe you make your home computer, your child may have access to other computers that don't have such filters. While elementary schools may install these features, public libraries usually don't because the filters would block adults from accessing legitimate information. And, of course, your child's friends' computers may not have the same safeguards as the one in your home does. So be sure to include other computers your children may use when setting the rules for them. And it would be a good idea to talk to the parents of the children your child visits often and ask if they use filters on their computer. These parents may not use any filters just because they don't know they exist.
Porn sites are all over the Internet and, unfortunately, kids are certainly smarter than adults are about computers. The good news is that online services provide tools for parental control that protects curious young minds from getting inappropriate materials. With varying degrees, they let you surf for what you want without worrying too much about whether your kids can also find the material. You can, in fact, allow your children to use the computer and still protect them from evil and other inappropriate online content. Dozens of software filters are now available, and http://www1.k9webprotection.com/ can lead you to the one that has the features you want. It's totally free, safe and tested by me. (If you need any assistance regarding installation of "K9 Web Protection" then don't hesitate to ask me)

I find high mass in the stove isn't that important. The mass of the house and contents becomes the thermal mass, and it is rather high.
I believe @SteveUnruh hit it on the head earlier, air flow and residence time of the heated gases equals efficiency. It's pretty hard to beat the combustion efficiency of a modern airtight wood stove. Then the question is the flue temperature. You have to maintain a certain minimum flue temperature to maintain good draft and smoke not entering your house, and avoid excessive condensation or creosote accumulation which will burn your house down unless cleaned.
A high thermal mass stove militates against clean efficient burning, taking a long time to get up to good operating temps.
well, I use 5 face cords of wood per year. I heat 1300 sq ft to 72 degrees in central ontario. If you were to try this with a high mass unit you would end up with a warm core and cold rooms the further out you went. Without secondary burn you would use twice the wood. You can Iive that way but I think Ill keep my airtight. You heat the air around the stove it naturally moves itself around the house heating up 2 tonne of drywall, a tonne of ceramic tiles and cement board underlay, and at least 5 tonnes of basement slab via radiant tubing. Stove was about 1200 plus the insulated chimney so under $2500 canadian. If you purchase hardwood here it costs you $100 per face cord if you have the land it costs you 2hrs of labour at least. If you change the firebrick in the stove the wear on the steel is negligible so you are good for 20 years or more. The secondary burn assembly in mine is stainless and replaceable but after 10 years it does not seem to be showing any wear.
Cheers, David Baillie
Okay David, Those are the kind of numbers I am used to from growing up in Vermont. I forget that I had to actually see, and help stoke a Rocket Mass Heater before I could believe it either. The flu pipe was a 6" piece of galvanied single wall. The galvanizing was not discollored, so you knew it had never gotten very hot. I could have kept my hand on it the whole time. I guesse it was about 90F. Outside you could smell a very slight sweetish smell that reminded me of a maple evaporator but not exactly. He was burning some scrap 2x4s that he split up smaller than I would even split kindling. I guesse he had about 20 pounds in that bucket when he started. You couldn't see any smoke. Supposedly there was some right when my friend lit it, but I wasn't ouside right then. The house stayed warm all night. It got down to about 15F that night. Here in the Denver area they think thats a little cold. The coldest I've seen it here is -12F. I hope you get to see one of these for yourself sometime.
Hi Billy,
I sure would be interested.
Sorry it took a whgile to get some pics. We finally set up the oven in it's final home. It still needs some paint in a few places.
chicken legs…not quite done. Those are some tiny T-LUDS on the table in the back ground. And a metal-bucket-rocket stove in the far back.
Much better after 425 F for a while.
The oven box swivels on the bottom barrel. Both ends of the oven can be removed to make a directional heat exchanger. I have hopes of developing a steam powered fan to pull hot air through a food/coffee drying chamber. It may end up being our laundry drier???
Jesse sorting firewood for the different stoves and ovens.
I made this oven with a "self feed" and an ash tray. The ash tray also serves to feed air to the under side of the combustion chamber. But usually this is not needed since the down draft of the air through the fuel inlet keeps the fire from climbing out of the feed slot.
At other times I have used fiberglass or mud to seal the barrels together. This time I bought 2 rolls of exhaust pipe wrap. It worked perfectly and looks much better. This one also has heavier steel for the gas manifolds. Earlier models were too efficient and caused cooking problems as the temps jumped rapidly (often exceeding 600 F). We added some mass to absorb some heat so it could serve as a heat generator/exchanger for an air space (highland greenhouse) in a place where fuel supply is short, but where there would also likely be an abundance of labor (to tend fires at night) . For exmples: Andes Mountains, or small scale Central/South American coffee farm…etc…
It's amazing how much you can cook on so little wood if you get a near-complete-combustion.
We also built a plancha stove one day last week. I narrowed the plancha this time and extended it's length. Also added some left over ceramic tile. Built this one on a heavy duty plastic pallet so it could be moved around with a fork lift if need be. The "sooted-up" tile above the combustion chanmer came from before the adjustments were made to the spacing under the plancha. Also, I still need to get a bigger pipe, this one is just a little too small for the size inlet I have. I will put a six inch pipe on that 4.75" clay pipe and extend it above the roofline. That should fix the soot problem.
Here's Naomi cooking some hamburgers for supper.
Used the firebrick liner from an old gas fireplace insert to cut out tiles for the firebox and the shelf around the outside of the stove.
This one probably belongs in another post, but the pics are on the same flash drive so I'll stick them here.
Found a use for 345 old glass bottles today. Built a retaining wall in the new produce wash station.
Capped the wall with a piece of hardi cement siding that we were going to use under the gravel in a new parking lot. The whole thing worked out well I think.
The pipe is for the sink that will stand here when we get some gravel or wood chips on the floor.
There are about a dozen more projects lately, but I can't find the pics. Have to find it later…
I would love to see other projects. I wish that I lived closer to you for a visit.
Yup, exactly my impression. They're like race cars. They do fast, and full blast real good, but they don't turn down or go slow very well at all.
And no worries about the time warp, okay? It gets us all.
You'll make it one of these days. Maybe we can do a woodgas get together down here sometime. Or carve out some time to come for our open house after we get it scheduled. Maybe I'll just go withyou to Africa to teach or something…Anyway,
I hope to finish the UDIL-CIP soon. I remember you were working with sanitation in Rwanda.
(Urine Diversion Improved Latrine- Compost in Place) We'll try to get some pics before it gets used.
The rocket chimmeney as a heat source helps with that a great deal, since you control temps by controlling the amount of fire anyway. As opposed to a regular old barrel stove with a big fire in a barrel where you have massive amounts of wood gasifying and combusting all at once. The rocket chimmeney limits that effect considerably…
I had thought to put a damper in the exhaust chimmeney, but am afraid of clogging the passage between the barrels. You can actually regulate temps pretty well with this higher-mass model, after you learn how to manage the fire. Like most woodstove cooking (even a little more), it's an art as well as a science. So many factors----wood quality, humidity, temp, etc…
Limiting the amount of fuel available in the combustion chamber and also regulating the inflow of air does help with temp regulation. This one takes a few minutes longer to get to baking temps, but is much easier toregulate than other lower-mass models we have built. It would serve very well for a small scale bakery or heat source for a green house where you weren't trying to fire it up and shut it down every little bit.
I really like it…You know what they say…Happy wife = Happy life…
Go to the picture of Jesse sorting fire wood. You have two barrels with a 6" pipe connecting the two. Could you put holes in the 6" pipe and get a secondary burn?? TomC
Mr Tom,
Not sure.
But the basic goal of a rocket chimmeney is for all the tars and oils to be burned up by the time they reach the top of that chimmeney at that collar. So hopefully there would not be very much to burn at that point in the process. If there is something there, then it means the rocket effect is not happening completely enough.
Rocket stoves are very similar to the Masonary heaters except that Masonary heaters have high mass to store the heat. I hope to build a Masonary heater with a built in bread oven someday. It is on my list of dream renovations for the old farmhouse. I so miss the wood gasification boiler I had at my last house. It is amazing how much heat a traditional wood stove wastes.
Well since we are mostly STILL in the middle dead of space heating winter you sure put up some nice PRACTICAL-USE realistic home heating information David Bailllie.
The really nice thing about these MODERN secondary burning bulk woodstoves past their minimum of 70% to as high of 85% fuel-to-spaceheat efficiency is their wide range of wood fuels use flexibility.
You and I can fuel with large, small, medium, splits in all species. Dial in the heat needed with the fuel woods types and sizing. No special stick form; chunk form; pelleted form, needed. And these types ONLY able to fuel with their own designer fuel form!
In mine I routinely burn bundled up 5 to 15 mm sticks "harvested" out of the always accumulating homestead thinning/pruning/wind harvest pile.
Wifie loves accumulating woven reed and wooden splits garden baskets. Done their potting soil time and rotted out and I wood stove burn these too. I can and have burnt thrown-out and black molds damaged picture puzzles. Corrugated cardboard; always. Pasteboard packaging; always. Anything and all things wooden/paper broken, discarded, no longer usable. Tables, chairs, garden furniture.
Every year the wood shed floor accumulates blocks splitting strandie chips and bark chunks. I paper bag these up and wood stove these for heat too.
I have burnt tossed out, water and mold damaged books. "Pulp" fiction as the easiest to do. Hardbacks: tear the covers off. Roll an bind the center into log form so they can gap lay.
Every year my nusie wife disposes of the oldest of her patient and business files. Roll them up. Bind then and logs-like burn these in the heating season wood stove. Ashy pita fuel. But saves the professional shredding costs to then just land fill contribute-to-the-ages.
Comes from the air CO2 and grounds minerals. Recycled back for another growing go-around. Says I.
Yesterday, Sunday, wifie cleaned off one side porch the chickens tried to take over. Soiled cardboard boxes, and gifted to us paper-pulp egg cartons. Ha! And all of my saved holes worn pig skin leather gloves. Sigh. I went a wood stove step too far. Chicken shits makes strong corrosives burnt. And the leather gloves had much preservatives in them.
What you all rocket stove enthusiasts fail to understand is I DO rocket forced time and velocity daily for ~20 minutes from a cold start. Rapid use ~2 pounds of wood/paper fuels with all four of my stoves airs wide open to get my charbed established hot and driving. Get my 450 pound iron and brick stove up to good operating temperatures. 16 feet of double and triple walled chimney pulling up draft really strongly.
Then it is velocity/outputs cut back to a hot cruising 1 pound to 12 pounds of fuel wood and hour.
6000 to 72,000 BTU's an hour into our 1300 square foot home.
250 heat needing days a year.
10 years on this current EPA certified stove. 50,000 working hours and only needing some sacrificial drop in stove bricks changed out.
I find those chasing the 85% efficiencies upward invariably are actually space heating with electricity, propane, natural gas. How do I know? In an actually people lived in space that 15% of chimney "waste" is needed to dehumidify a real house from people/pets exhaling/resperationing out pints a day, individually. Washing/showering in-house moisture contributions. Cooking moisture contributions in-house.
The bulk wood stove handles these all quietly, handily just as matter of course.
I see this same efficiency/numbers chasing bragdiosa on every social media platform.
My Toyota Camry gets 46 miles per gallon! Hiway cruise; yeah, maybe. Not overall driving sister of mine.
My 300 WinMag can push bullets out to 4000 feet per second! Yeah, sure brother-in-law. 15 pound capable only varmint bullets at the cost of barrel leade erosion.
My 2015 Ford F150 has a world-class beating EcoTech 2.7L V-6 engine! Yes sister of mine. DUAL exhaust turbo's needed. Active continuously computer adjusting four cam engine. Demanding fully synthetic expensive motor oils then. For the l-o-n-g chain driven on each cam oil-pruurized phaser/timers. For the exhausr heat oil cooking turbo power boosters. My 24 year old Ford F150 with it's "big" old last millennia push rod valved only one cam V-8 gets the same overall fuel used mileage and uses standard cheap dino lubricating oil. Yours will choke on any poor quality gasoline. Mine keep burbling along.
Real use numbers in all things are full cycle use numbers. Been sitting cold unused; through full use; then back down to cold sitting accumulated numbers. Year around use numbers. Cradle to grave numbers. Charletons, con-artists and the shallow minded use snap-shot, steady state numbers.
BillS, as you are finding true rural living is a demanding practical durable, long-use, simpler-is-better lifestyle.
Ignore those who do not live similar to you. Without similar values and goals.
tree-farmer Steve Unruh with min 88 inches rain a year. 122 inches in especially blessed years.
I've linked to this page before but I just love this one.https://chimneysweeponline.com/wscomp8.htm
Mine is a pacific energy super 27. This year will be the first year I break into the 5th face cord of wood unless things get warmer fast. As I'm home more during the day this year I tend to keep things warmer. We used to make due with 3 face cords of hardwood and 1 and a bit of softwood but with kids we increased our burn rate.
Always a pleasure Steve.
Cheers, David Baillie
Another really good one to refer folks to DavidB is:
Out of eastern Canada I believe.
Once they responded to all of us "no hardwoods - fir/pine&spruce only" folks their information's have become much better.
The best wood-for-poeple-living-inhome-heating comes from between 40 degrees latitude North and South imho.
Center of the world folks unless very high up Andes and central Africa just do not get the annually months/thousands of hours of needing experiences. They do know how to cooking stove though. Why they love their Rockets.
I will never say rocket stove, or respond to rocket stoveing ever again in my lifetime to anyone.
I actually know well tech-level limitations and tech-talk responsibility.
Geeks, techies, lab-rats, experimenter's can all justify 999 failures out of 1000 attempts as pushing the boundaries of endeavors/knowledge's.
The actual mathing Degreed Herr Doctor Professor lab-rats are very good at finding the 100% theoretical possibility limits. VERY poor at achieving anything usable in real life.
The Design engineers very good at responding to manufactures/investors/promoters/marketers demands. Equally terrible most often putting out real world DURABLE, LONG LIFED units.
The real world usable is in the actual field make-it-work engineers and operators. No degrees required. Very little maths. Just decades and decades of seen-it, do-it for thousands and thousands of hours, experiences.
I am coming to believe that social forum media is a wasted effort.
Books, blogging is a take it or leave it; shut-up and walk away, maybe, better way. Certainly much less frustrating.
ChrisKY. I was wrong. Apologies man.

great point Steve. The purpose of the stove is more than just heat usually. You mention one I had not thought of; dehumidification. Reminds me of our time in TN. We had no electricity there. It was swelteringly hot and humid with little breeze. We found that even at 102 f it was worth building a small fire int he cookstove to 1, heat water, but mostly to dry the air some. It actually felt cooler with the fire than without.

I admire you for your work and tenasity, but, I think it´s not a shame to fail; it´s another way in witch human mind and body, bonded together are forced to find solutions.
I thinkI have learned much from my failures, many have also. As an anaesthesiologist (now retired) I could no fail, It would have been a cathastrofy, has a stove and kiln builder, I can fail and learn.
Those are my thoughts
I have been mullingover this quote since it posted the other day. I think it is my new favorite quote. Probably because it helps me justify so many otherwise-negative-occurances in my life…lol
I remember something my chemistry teacher in high school said. "You learn something from your mistakes, but you learn more from your sucesses" After 34 years I think he is right.
To be sure. The goal isn't the failure.
I love these quotes, but at the end of the day it's not about Michael Jordan missing 9000 shots, it's about his willingness to not allow his missing 9000 shots to keep him from becoming the best basketball player in history.
Though, I do think far too many people just use the idea as an excuse to be mediocre and not try at all because, you know, "Oh well, nobody's perfect right? We all make mistakes, why eve try?" Sad way to live I guess.
o gosh, why won't you buy a gas stove. They're cheap and effective.
Somebody please explain me your philosophy

Nice to see you more on main programme Eli
Hello and thanks for taking the time to read my blog. This week I am embracing the colour yellow, trying apple cider vinegar, and using Revitalash for the very first time!
Life at QVC can be very busy and I often find I dash from morning to night and sometimes skip meals. Not ideal I know! I have a good appetite so I spent a lots of time grazing… my favourite munchies are oatcakes, hummus and crackers, peanut butter and bananas and I love a marshmallow! In the last few weeks however I found I needed some more energy and also found my skin was getting flare-ups of red patches – I have a tendency to suffer from rosacea. So I thought more serious measures were needed. Cue apple cider vinegar and fruit!
A lot of my friends here at QVC use apple cider vinegar and have said what a difference it has made to them, I thought why not give it a go! So I've been trying it in small doses and can feel a difference even in a week. I notice my skin has a calmer appearance and less patchy. It doesn't taste very nice so be warned. I have it in a glass with plenty of water. I also take vitamin C, iron and B12. Of course these work for me and if in any doubt I'd always check with a doctor or pharmacist before taking anything new.
I've also started munching on lots more fruit as my in between snacks.
My new healthier habit consists of lots of berries: blueberries, raspberries, strawberries and blackberries. I must admit I was inspired by Alli Young who kindly shared her snacks with me one day. She is a lovely woman. I also got through a handful of coconut pieces too! I find I have much more energy and can keep going for longer than munching quick fixes like toast or a biscuit or three. (Although I do like those too)
Now let's talk fun fashion and bright colours. My new favourite colour is yellow! Look at this gorgeous dress from Ghost which I recently got from QVC. I love the brightness mixed with the pretty little flowers and the 1940s tea dress style. If you like this then also check out Phase Eight for pretty dresses. I also decided to match with yellow nails.
Let's talk lashes. If you, like me, would love more luscious-looking lashes then Revitalash may be for you.
It's really easy to use – simply sweep on the liquid with the very easy-to-use fine little brush applicator once a day to get healthier-looking lashes. They recommend once a day and give it few weeks to see results. These are my lashes one week after using Revitalash.
It also happens to be one of our Big Deals this week, check it out here.
We also have these fantastic Big Deals too, a cross-body Ashwood bag and a super-handy Ibot Roomba.
Hope you have a wonderful bank holiday.

Taking a legal perspective on the issue enumerates different conceptions about the purpose of a corporation. There are at least two legal theories of the firm. On one side is the contracts theory , which views the corporation primarily as a set of property or contractual relations; on the other side, the entity theory recognizes the corporation as a concession from society with its attendant rights but also obligations towards society. Talk to the best corporate lawyers in India to know more.
Contracts Theory
Under the contracts theory, the corporation is a collection of private contracts between shareholders, managers, and others. In this view, the primacy is the contract with shareholders, which allows and conditions all other contracts. From this, it follows the theory that the corporation should only be governed by the interests of the property owners or the contracting parties. It is up to the bargaining power of each of the parties to the contract to defend their interests; therefore, the corporation should defend the interests of the shareholders. And under the assumption that shareholders, being rational human beings, want more wealth and will never be satiated, the conclusion is reached that the objective of the firm is to maximize shareholder wealth. Top corporate advocates in India can be consulted to know more.
Entity Theory
Entity theory postulates that corporations operate within the societal purview, it needs the resources that the planet and society can provide in order to carry out its activities and that it needs society to buy its products and services. The corporation does not operate in isolation . As such, it has responsibilities toward society. It recognises the complexities of the relations between corporations and their surroundings and states that corporation contracts are not explicit and have implications on its surroundings. For eg. The contract formed with the people living nearby a factory that breathe the same air in which the factory releases fumes as a resultant of the production process . Entity theory challenges the fundamental assumptions of the private contract theory by stating that the firm may be private in the sense that it is owned by private individuals, directly or indirectly, it does not necessarily operate exclusively within the realm of those individuals. As it operates in the public space, it does have public responsibilities. You can talk to a good corporate lawyer near you to understand this theory better.
Indian Legal approach towards Corporate Social Responsibility
India stands at the forefront in manifesting the role of law in the context of Corporate Social Responsibility. The corporate social responsibility (CSR) movement began as a response to advocacy for corporations to play a role in ameliorating social problems due to their economic power and overarching presence in daily life. India has gone further than any other country. In 2013, it enacted Section 135 of the Indian Companies Act prescribing a mandatory "CSR spend of 2% of average net profits … during the three immediately preceding financial years" for all companies meeting specified financial thresholds. In other words, companies "having net worth of rupees five billion or more, or turnover of rupees ten billion or more or a net profit of rupees fifty million or more during any financial year" have to ensure that they spend 2% of average net profits made during the three preceding years on CSR activities. The law also requires that firms, above the threshold, establish a CSR Committee of the Board of Directors. This committee is responsible for formulating the firm's CSR policy, for ensuring that at least 2% of profits are spent on CSR activity, and for explaining why the firm failed to achieve the target. Schedule VII of the 2013 Companies Act provides an illustrative list of activities qualifying for CSR status for purposes of the mandate.
The Birla Example
The Birla Group of organizations is known by all in India. The Birla bunch runs 15 healing facilities in India and 78 schools. They additionally work towards the restoration of the debilitated persons and aided more than 5000 incapacitated individuals. Their restorative projects have helped more than 100,000 patients, which incorporates more than 15, 000 kids, 500 waterfall patients and 2, 000 TB patients. The Birla Group maintain numerous such activities the nation over and has received a few towns and gave help to the villagers.
Corporate Law Grows Closer to Human Rights
Today, the worldwide society calls itself a worldwide town. There is more mindfulness among general society about requesting changes and assistance from corporates.Ensuring human rights are a key a portion of CSR as it touches upon different features of social, financial and natural measurements of corporate action.This might incorporate the privileges of works to get reasonable wages, right to be dealt with similarly and right to wellbeing and security and fundamental offices like safe drinking water. The privileges of customers for protected, dependable and valuable products and administrations, right to get authentic data through promoting or other showcasing exercises.

Leaping to the defense of Max Baucus, JimMcGarvey, the executive secretary of the Montana AFL-CIO, wrote an opinion piece for today's Independent Record, attacking
the piece by Gene Fenderson four days ago, offering an assessment of Baucus's legislative career that would make a press officer in his Senate office blush. Frankly, it's an embarrassing and sycophantic piece that makes the Montana AFL-CIO appear to be
working for Baucus, rather than the other way around.
Let's ignore the half dozen personal attacks McGarvey levels against Fenderson in the piece. They're childish, and don't advance the discussion. What's more troubling about the piece is
that McGarvey is reinventing history to make Max's very mixed history on labor and the middle class more palatable. Senator Baucus, while certainly a better candidate for working people than Montana Republicans have ever offered, is by no means a friend of labor, nor is he a champion of the middle class.
The record speaks for itself. Whether it's supporting sensible estate taxes, increasing the minimum wage, protecting American families from bankruptcy, or protecting working class Americans from predatory loans, Baucus has failed to put workers first. His true master has not been the working families of Montana, but multinational corporations that have run rampant during the new gilded age ushered in by the Baucus-Burns tax cuts. It's frustrating to see how far McGarvey has to distort reality to defend the Senator.
On the tax issue, McGarvey writes:
Mr. Fenderson even tried to poke at Baucus for supporting some of the most progressive tax relief low-income Americans have ever received. Max supported the major tax cut in 2001 because the country enjoyed a record $2.4 trillion
Yes, that was certainly sound fiscal policy. Mr. McGarvey might remember that in 2000, we had budget surpluses. According to the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, the budget is projected to average $219 billion in deficits for the next decade. McGarvey argues that the tax cuts were good for the middle class, but apparently missed the newsflash that those benefits were largely illusory. The Progressive Policy Institute predicted in 2001 exactly what has happened as a result of the law: feel good measures to buy off the middle class, followed by disastrous cuts in the top tax rates, cuts that have depleted the Treasury and widened the gap between rich and working class Americans. Max sold out to corporate interests rather than fight for the middle class.
McGarvey also chose to ignore a number of valid criticisms offered by Fenderson, including:
- Baucus's support of fast track trade authority. There's a reason he probably ignored it. The proposals are incredibly bad news for American workers. Who says so?
The AFL-CIO.
- Baucus's ' stance on Medicare coverage. Who opposed the Baucus approach on Medicare prescription coverage? The AFL-CIO. I won't even get into McGarvey's contention that Baucus is a champion of health care for every American.
- Baucus's support for a repeal/major reduction of the estate tax. You might be surprised to learn that the AFL-CIO opposes that as well.
But the broader point is not to rehash Baucus's failures. They're well-documented here and elsewhere. What's incredibly troubling is how cheaply McGarvey is willing to sell his union's influence. In the piece, he guarantees Baucus an endorsement in 2008,
And that's why we've endorsed Max every single time he's stood for re-election. And we'll do it again in 2008 — no matter who his opponent is.
How does this serve the members of the Montana AFL-CIO? If the champions of the working class promise in advance that they will not hold Baucus accountable for his votes on trade, wages, organizing, or taxes, what possible influence can they hope to exert on the Senator? How will they make the voices of their workers heard, if Baucus knows that the union will have his back no matter what he does?
It's poor politics, and poor representation. Odds are that I am going to vote for Max Baucus in 2008 once again, because I know the kind of people the Montana GOP will run against him. As frustrated as I (and many liberals) have been with Baucus over the years, he will almost assuredly be a much stronger advocate of Montana's working families than the Republican nominee, if they can find one.
That vote isn't a promise, though, and I won't stop fighting to pressure Senator Baucus to do a better job looking out for his real constituents. Someone who purports to represent 33,000 working Montanans certainly shouldn't either.

Well, I have had a few really bad days when I thought I would never last a day more in this place, but, I always get over them! That isn't to say that I now love this place, it just means that I have a bad day or two each week and then the rest of the time is bearable.
We have had contact from A in Chincha, but only the kind of contact that makes me angry (he seems to be the kind of person who can't take advice and just makes things worse for himself and other people). I haven't heard anything from his wife as yet.
I am pushing my way through my nutrition course – it has been challenging the last few weeks; too much chemistry for my brain to cope with when I'm struggling with just living here. But I'm making some interesting discoveries about what our governments don't let us know re. how we should be eating. It seems that the selling of statins and medication is far more important than preventing the need for them!!
I'm currently teaching one lesson a day at the university. My last cycle will start in a couple of week and finish mid-July. In the meantime I have been asked to record some videos (more cheese) to teach grammar points. It appears that they want my presence to remain in the university so I have to put my face and voice on camera!!
I'm really looking forward to going home now! I want to go swimming, eat British desserts, consume fresh milk, go to a proper church, have friends again, have intelligent conversations, wash my clothes in a washing machine that washes properly, go for country walks (I will miss the mountains here), HAVE A BATH EVERYDAY FOR 6 MONTHS TO MAKE UP FOR THE LAST 3 YEARS!!
We'll be looking to book flights in the next few weeks after we give a chance to prospective jobs to get back to Paul.
Will send out a news email soon to bring you all up to date on our last projects before leaving.
2 Responses to "Leaving my mark at the university"
Matthew Evans says:
The video thing made me chuckle… the bath every day for 6 months… made me laugh out loud.
Glad you've still got (at least in occasional moments!) your sense of humour.

Just seen this again – still sniggering.

text: I am working my way through The Portable Dorothy Parker. It's my first real introduction to her writing and I am really enjoying it. I just have one little observation to make before I go back to reading the rest of the book. I find that the more I read of her poetry, the more I am convinced that Dorothy Parker and Edna St. Vincent Millay are probably having a marvelous time hanging out together in some literary afterlife. While Parker's poems are a bit more tongue-in-cheek than Millay's sonnets, they strike me as kindred spirits in how they approached life, love, and men.


text: A delicious blend of tradition and modernity, London is a living lesson in the virtues of diversity… eminently British, yet at the same time the most cosmopolitan city in Europe. And while London is bursting at the seams with blockbuster sights and historical landmarks, you will not appreciate her fully until you've shared a laugh or a pint with some of her many delightful and colorful characters. Cheers!

January 2015 – Sell Outs
Proverbs 25:19 "Confidence in an unfaithful man in time of trouble is like a broken tooth, and a foot out of joint."
After a monumental midterm election in which the Republicans totally destroyed the Democrats from a historical comparison perspective, how have things changed? The answer is simple; nothing changed. There can be no doubt to anyone except the Republican zombie party loyalists that both parties ultimately want the same things in their overall goal. Although it is true that in the rank and file the Republicans have conservatives, the truth is that it does not matter since the New World Order Republican leadership has no use for the Constitution. Sure they will make all kinds of political moves to turn back government like there many votes to overturn Obamacare when they know that there is no way it would be repealed with a Democrat run Senate and a Democrat (alleged) president. Does anyone really believe they will repeal Obamacare if they get the Presidency? Let me say that I would love to be wrong about this but recent events only confirm my feelings about the back stabbing sell out Republicans. They have given Obama the funds necessary to carry out his recent kingly edict of amnesty for illegal aliens. John Boehner promised the Republicans would fight tooth-and-nail to stop to Obama's executive order. Of course in keeping with his pattern of lies, he is not willing to back up his words with action. Instead of using the Power of the Purse to stop Obama's lawlessness, Republicans completely funded the government. Time and time again the Republican Party leadership along with the willing elected accomplices sell out the rank and file party members. They simply do nothing to uphold their oath of office to the Constitution. It's all a big game, a phony dance between perceived "left and right."
Already they are positioning themselves with a RINO candidate for president. Another Romney type will undoubtedly be the nominee for the 2016 presidential race. We get the same old RINOS like Chris Christie and Jeb Bush. The chances of them allowing an insurgent candidate to win the nomination like Reagan almost did in 1976, and actually did in 1980, are very small. We all know that the powers that be in centralized planning have no desire to decentralize. Power grabs more power, and it seeks to subjugate all who threaten it by force. Socialism is not freedom, it's not choice, and it is forced under penalty of law. This is clearly shown in Obamacare and the Republicans will not totally get rid of it.
There is no way to save this country without a spiritual revival back to the Word of God and from that a demand by the people to also return to the Constitution. At this point we are on a freefall losing our liberty, and on our way to eventual hard tyranny. I am sorry to be negative but we can't ignore the evidence that screams at us.
I recommend first that we preach the gospel and make disciples. Second, that we demand of our Christian leaders, that they stop compromising the bible. Thirdly, that we prepare our families to survive and thrive as we continue to fall as a nation. We must be ready to not only take care of our families but also to be light during dark times.
Isaiah 51:6 "Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and look upon the earth beneath: for the heavens shall vanish away like smoke, and the earth shall wax old like a garment, and they that dwell therein shall die in like manner: but my salvation shall be forever, and my righteousness shall not be abolished."
Matthew 24:35 "Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away".
Don't give up! Keep fighting for the Bible and the rule of law found in the Constitution. Perhaps God will give us grace as a nation once again. If not, we as believers will still trust in the only thing that is eternal; The Word of God!

Scroll through Instagram, and you've likely come across the "Ark" bag, the crescent-shaped bamboo carryall from Los Angeles–based fashion brand Cult Gaia. Timeless yet modern—with a budget-friendly price tag to boot (it currently retails for $118)—the bag has been spotted in the hands of sartorial darlings such as Jessica Alba and blogger Chriselle Lim since last summer.
Yet despite its seemingly runaway success, the accessory struggled to find customers when it first debuted back in 2013. "No one actually bought it for two years," says Jasmin Larian, the brainchild behind Cult Gaia. "So much of fashion is based on trend. It took time, but we had to train the customers to think that they could pull it off." The 28-year-old's perseverance paid off last February when she sold a few of the bags to Clare Distenfeld of Fivestory, the buzzy lifestyle boutique in New York City. The label soon garnered the attention of the city's stylish social circle, cementing Larian's status as an emerging accessories designer.
Known for her Cali–meets–Grace Kelly aesthetic, Larian, whose assortment of offbeat yet elegant offerings includes everything from oversized rattan bangles to '50s-inspired turbans, says her goal is to make statement pieces that stand the test of time. This now includes a debut ready-to-wear collection, which launched online today. Priced between $118 to $198, the lineup includes an array of punchy pieces that recall tranquil, beachy vibes.
We recently spoke with Larian about the inspiration behind her brand, sustainable fashion, and her connection to the Bratz dolls.
Why did you decide to launch your own brand?
My mom was a fashion designer when I was growing up, and my dad had a toy company that started the Bratz dolls (Yasmin, one of the four original Bratz dolls, was named after Jasmin). I grew up around fashion designers who made miniature clothes for dolls. Fashion has been a part of my life forever. I started Cult Gaia in 2012, straight out of FIT [the Fashion Institute of Technology]. I was making headpieces and flower crowns for friends as a hobby, and people started to take notice. I think the cornerstone of our brand is making things that are conversation starters. Even with the crown, it was something that brought a lot of attention—a recognizable and wearable art piece.
Who is the "girl" you design for?
Someone who is really easygoing, effortless, pays attention to subtle details. Her statement pieces are her accessories. She puts her bag in bed at night. She loves luxury, but doesn't think she needs $7,000 to obtain that. My muse is Haley Boyd, the designer behind footwear brand Marais USA. She's been wearing our bag for a long time.
The Gaia Ark is everywhere on social media. To what do you attribute its popularity?
It's so recognizable. It's an amazing conversation starter. If you carry this bag, I bet you everyone will ask, "Where did you get that? What is that? Is that a bag?" It garners so much attention. It's also something that looks amazing with every outfit. I've worn it with a black-tie gown. It's designed to stay on your coffee table and look just as beautiful as home decor as it is [as an accessory].
Tell us about your new spring collection.
Everything I make is superfeminine. Before my trip to Italy, I made some clothes to wear on my trip. My friends said they really wanted to wear them as well, so I decided to put a capsule collection together. Everything is really effortless; nothing's too frilly, nothing's overdesigned. I feel like everything's something you might find in your mother's closet. My aesthetic is super-vintage-inspired, like Grace Kelly on the beach. There's a triangle wraparound dress that looks good on everybody. My friends have been begging me for the linen tent dress. It's so easy to throw on.

June 23, 2015 Karen Castle's Castle (all sans SB, KS, and VM)
Dramatic departure: The best kind of big summer storm. Over by Olney.
Chatter: Dewey vs. Bethany (no clear winner); cooking vs. dining out at beach (do both); grocery shopping patterns (do we have to???); travel! (Azores/Castles + all Portugal fans, Iceland/Sue&Liz, Punta Cana/Katie & so many Russians); trees (care & keeping hassles); deer (love 'em/hate 'em); "Irish Potato Famine" does the name 'blame' the Irish? = hyper-PC semantics; selling Hummels on Ebay/beware the fussy buyers; deer sensors: high pitch stirs people who come outside & that's what 'scares' away the deer
THE BOOK (no obvious segue but starting to eat)
The Light Between Oceans by ML Stedman
Marie (???) picked it because:
1. Summer pick + light house = duh
2. Many likable characters
3. Tragic theme/choices not deal breakers to read
4. Library patrons LOVE talking about it
- a steady stream of action & flow (not boring, not hyper)
- Isabel stopped being so darn likable after meeting Hannah & still opting to deny the truth (poor Izzie; what a choice)
- loved the info about the lighthouse care & keeper duties (well, most of us did most of the time)
- Frank in the boat (accident) – some saw this as a rather weak transition for such a critical plot point; others were satisfied with the 'townie attitude' (while sane sheriff was away) led to the boat escape
- Tom Sherbourne = sure born >>> good name choice! ditto for 'Lucy' (light)
- so clever: Tom's words to rescue Hannah (early on)/Hannah recalling same words years later to condemn Tom re: Lucy
- Septimus the bad = causing/allowing distrust of Frank by all
- Septimus the better = connecting with Lucy-Grace (the name and the actions)
- we loved Bluey and Ralph, the characters who brought supplies & how they were the life line and also the undoing of life on the island
- enjoyed the various symbols – light, names, water
- much discussion about mental illness vs. really bad/selfish moments (esp. regarding Isabel)
- ending – mostly nice/ok…but did Izzie have to survive all that & then miss seeing Lucy Grace by such a short time? Meh.
Theme Song: instrumental version of 'The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald'
CASTING (this did not go smoothly)
Tom – Ryan Gosling
Isabel – Emily Blount
Septimus –
Violet –
Hannah – Natalie Portman
Gwen – Winona Ryder
Lucy –
Bluey – Peta from the Hunger Games
Ralph – Tom Skerrit

Here are the instructions for the challenge
About This level looks at the concept of modifying variables to specific values in the program, and how the variables are laid out in memory. This level is at /opt/protostar/bin/stack1 Hints If you are unfamiliar with the hexadecimal being displayed, "man ascii" is your friend. Protostar is little endian
#include <stdlib.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> int main(int argc, char **argv) { volatile int modified; char buffer[64]; if(argc == 1) { errx(1, "please specify an argument\n"); } modified = 0; strcpy(buffer, argv[1]); if(modified == 0x61626364) { printf("you have correctly got the variable to the right value\n"); } else { printf("Try again, you got 0x%08x\n", modified); } }
I won't go into quite as much detail on this challenge. The C source code just sets up a local variable called 'modified', sets up a character array called 'buffer' that is 64 characters long, then checks to make sure that the program was called with one argument. Next it uses strpy to read the argument into the character. Finally it checks if the value of modified has been changed.
This is very similar to the last challenge. The only difference is that modified needs to be set to an exact value to win. Line 18 says modified needs to be 0x61626364. Using an ascii table I can see that hex 61 is lowercase a, 62 is lowercase b, 63 is lowercase c and 64 is lowercase d.
I assume that I can overrun the 64 byte buffer just like I did last time. Then I place my abcd after the 64 characters.
./stack1 AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAabcd
Try again, you got 0x64636261
But why is my string backwards? It's because the memory is stored using little endian.
I just switch my abcd around to dcba and try again.
./stack1 AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAdcba
you have correctly got the variable to the right value

Ray Burnside is a professional photographer based in Willingdon, Eastbourne. He specialises in photography for corporate marketing departments and arts organisations.
Before leaving London for East Sussex he had many years experience of working with law firms, industrial clients and people in the entertainment industry.
Although still working in London he is keen to take on firms based in East Sussex who need consistently high quality professional photography as part of their brand development.
All of our "customers" are visually sophisticated, due in part to the TV and Internet providing huge amounts of high-quality, on screen materials. These same customers expect your visuals to be of a similar quality. Please call to discuss your needs with no obligation on your part.
In-house sessions for companies needing staff portrait photography, for online CV, print and social media. These are arranged on your premises so that staff do not have their day disrupted by travelling to a studio. For less than 10 people it may be more cost effective to use our individual studio portrait service.
This is a fairly new service we have decided to offer. We were asked to provide photographs of the complete menu available for an in-house restaurant for an international company. The results went down so well we decided to add this to our services.
Marketing departments will probably have discovered just how expensive it can be to license a particular photograph from one of the major libraries. We work with your marketing department to provide a library of bespoke, royalty-free photographs, which you can use in any of your company's documents. These can build into a complete bespoke library of relevant, original photographs for your exclusive use.

Yes, its time to talk about food. Well, it's always a good time to talk about food. But I mean real food.
Fall is a wonderful season for food. This is the one season characterized by food, with the harvest basket. But have you ever seen real food in a real harvest basket? What do you know about your food? The food in you community? The food in your fridge? The food on your plate? A great way to find out all that and more is on Food Day. What's that, you ask?
National Food Day on Wednesday 10/24 is a celebration of food that is healthy, sustainable, affordable, and fair. You can learn about where food comes from in your city. Meet local farmers and vendors. Connect with neighbors and make new friends. I plan on attending 2 events in my town. One at Phoenix City Hall and the other in my neighborhood at the Central Farmers Market. I'm especially looking forward to seeing what Truck Farm has planted (@TruckFarmPHX)! What are your plans for Food Day? Check out the website FoodDay.org and plug in your zip code to learn more about what's happening in your area.
If Food Day has you excited and jazzed to get involved, check out National Make A Difference Day on Saturday 10/27. It You can find a community garden or a local food bank to volunteer with or provide a donate. Click on the 'Project Search' or the 'National Map' to find events taking place in your area.
I'll be busy teaching gardening clinics at Growing Together Community Garden doing my part. How about you? Get out and do something fun and edifying in your community!
