Crayon on walls or washable wallpaper
Clean by spraying with WD-40, then gently wipe using a paper towel or clean cloth. If the WD-40 leaves a residue, gently wipe off with a sponge soaked in soapy water; rinse clean and blot dry.
If the mark is stubborn, use some baking soda on a damp sponge and gently rub in a circular motion.
You could also try using a hair dryer. Heat the wax and then wipe away instantly. If the colour remains, like red usually does, wet a cloth with bleach and wipe.
Removing grease spots/stains from wallpaper
Option 1 – Grease stain on vinyl wallpaper
- Make a mixture of warm water and dishwashing detergent by pouring about 1 tsp of dishwashing detergent into the bowl and adding warm water
- Dip a clean rag into the mixture and rub the old grease spot
- Then, wet another rag with clean water and rub the dishwashing detergent away
- Repeat the process of rubbing the spot with mixture and wiping if off with clean water until the grease area is gone
Option 2 – Grease stain on vinyl wallpaper
- Blot the spot with a clean, dry paper towel if it's fresh grease or oil on vinyl wallpaper
- Plug in an iron and set it to a 'warm' setting. Place two paper towels (folded over each other) over the oil or grease mark)
- Gently press the iron on the paper towel directly over the spot
- The oil will absorb into the paper towels
- If all of the oil or grease doesn't absorb into the paper towel, repeat the process with clean paper towels until the spot is completely gone.
Option 3 – Grease stain on non-vinyl wallpaper
- Apply talcum powder to the grease spot, whether the stain is old or new
- The stain has a better chance of coming off if you attempt to clean it when it has first been done
- Allow the talcum powder to sit on the stain for a few minutes and then brush it away with a soft, clean paintbrush
- Repeat this process until the grease spot is completely removed.
White Bread
To remove dirty or greasy fingerprints from painted walls or non-washable wallpaper, rub the area with a slice of white bread.

Martial 6.39: Pater ex Marulla
by Tom Gardner
Pater ex Marulla, Cinna, factus es septem
non liberorum: namque nec tuus quisquam
nec est amici filiusve vicini,
sed in grabatis tegetibusque concepti
materna produnt capitibus suis furta.
Hic qui retorto crine Maurus incedit
subolem fatetur esse se coci Santrae;
at ille sima nare, turgidis labris
ipsa est imago Pannychi palaestritae.
Pistores esse tertium quis ignorat,
quicumque lippum nouit et uidet Damam?
Quartus cinaeda fronte, candido voltu
ex concubino natus est tibi Lygdo:
percide, si vis, filium: nefas non est.
Hunc vero acuto capite et auribus longis,
quae sic moventur ut solent asellorum,
quis morionis filium negat Cyrtae?
Duae sorores, illa nigra et haec rufa,
Croti choraulae vilicique sunt Carpi.
Iam Niobidarum grex tibi foret plenus
si spado Coresus Dindymusque non esset.
Cinna, you have been made a father by Marulla of seven
non-children, for none of them are yours,
and none of them are the son of a friend or a neighbour,
but, as they were conceived in couches and bed-rugs,
they betray their mother's adulteries by their heads.
This one, who marches along like a Moor with curly hair,
admits that he's the offspring of Santra the cook;
but that one, snub-nosed and blubber-lipped,
is the spitting image of Pannychus the wrestling-trainer.
Who doesn't know that the third is the pastry-cook's,
when he knows and sees bleary-eyed Dama?
The fourth, with the brow of an effete, the pale complexion,
was born unto you from your concubine Lygdus;
sodomise, if you will, your son: it is no sin.
This one, certainly, with the pointed head and long ears,
which move much as donkey's are accustomed to move,
who denies that he's the son of Cyrta, the house fool?
Two sisters, one black-haired and the other red-haired,
are the daughters of Crotus the flautist and Carpus the overseer.
Now there's a brood as numerous as that of Niobe,
if Coresus and Dindymus hadn't been eunuchs.

Four months to #StopGlyphosate
23 February 2017
Earlier this month, Corporate Europe Observatory joined a broad pan-European coalition in launching a European Citizens Initiative (ECI) to ban glyphosate and improve the weak EU pesticides approval procedure. We hope this builds enough public pressure on the European Commission and national governments, including the UK government, that they take into account our concerns when they decide whether or not to relicence glyphosate in June (and under what conditions).
The broad-spectrum plant-killer glyphosate (trademarks: Roundup, Weedol...) has been in the news over the past two years, in particular because of an unusual public conflict that erupted between the EU's food safety agency (EFSA) and the World Health Organisation's cancer research department (IARC) on whether the substance causes cancer in humans, and at which dose. Given that glyphosate is the most widely-used weed-killer, this is a serious question for farm workers and gardeners, but also for consumers and everyone who lives in cities where it is still used it to kill unwanted plants in streets, school playgrounds and public parks.
This conflict has been so threatening to the pesticides industry that it has now launched a full-scale attack on the IARC, asking the Trump administration to cut all funding it provides to the international public health agency. IARC's publications are often used by courts as a reference in lawsuits against manufacturers of toxic chemicals.
Need for scientific scrutiny
But, beyond threatening industry interests, one of the reasons why this conflict between the EU and the World Health Organisation's public health agencies was so bitter is that, as with all pesticides, the EU's safety evaluation of glyphosate was mainly based on unpublished industry studies, as opposed to being a proper scientific process using published evidence, enabling scientific scrutiny.
This kind of secrecy has unfortunately been the norm for most products put on the market. Because it is so difficult to audit the data behind market authorisations, toxic products are sold and used much longer than they should be.
However, the glyphosate controversy is an opportunity to highlight this problem and make sure public decisions on the authorisation of toxic products are more scientific: Pesticides should only be assessed on the basis of published evidence.
Curing the EU's addiction to pesticides
Beyond the controversy on glyphosate's direct toxicity to humans, the evidence that the widespread use of glyphosate is ecologically devastating is overwhelming. Glyphosate is directly toxic to soils, the basis of any future food production, and destroying all plants on a piece of land basically annihilates local biodiversity. From that perspective, the massive use of all wide-spectrum weed-killers needs to stop.
A glyphosate ban would be an important step towards reducing European agriculture's addiction to biocides, especially now that we are experiencing the worst biodiversity collapse ever recorded and urgently need to invest in plant cover and the health of soil if we are to do anything meaningful about water scarcity and climate change.
Better farming practices
From Corporate Europe Observatory's perspective, the campaign to #StopGlyphosate should be seen within a larger movement towards ecological and restorative farming practices. This includes introducing support measures for the many farmers who rely on destructive – but cheap – weed management measures like spraying broad-spectrum plant-killers (or, even worse, ploughing). Other broad-spectrum weed-killers that could used as substitutes (dicamba, glufosinate, 2,4D, diquat…) are typically more toxic, and sometimes more expensive than glyphosate.
Farmers need support if we want them to be able to make a decent living out of their work without poisoning themselves and to move towards farming practices that do not compromise public health, the environment or our capacity to produce food in the future.
This could be in the form of direct financial support, as long as the farm subsidies actually support farm workers' livelihoods and ecological farming, and not just the act of owning land as is the case now. But, perhaps what we need are better international trade measures: there is no point in trying to produce food in decent social and ecological conditions if countries that don't respect these standard are allowed to dump their products on our markets.
Take action
We have four months to collect at least one million signatures for the #StopGlyphosate European Citizen's Initiative.
Share it with your friends and networks #StopGlyphosate

In May 2018, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) called sunscreen pills fake medicine and a scam. The FDA also warned the companies that make Advanced Skin Brightening Formula, Sunsafe Rx, Solaricare and Sunergetic to stop saying they protect people from the sun's rays. These companies and their false marketing claims are misleading consumers and putting people at risk for skin cancer. If you purchased sunscreen pills based on these claims, please submit your information below.

The New Year brings with it brand new trends in fashion and interior design. Here at Sliderobes, we've taken a look at the colour trends to watch in 2019…
For the last decade, PANTONE have chosen an official colour of the year. 2019's pick is Living Coral - PANTONE 16-1546 to be precise. Evoking feelings of warmth and vigour, Living Coral is synonymous with the natural world. Coral is the perfect shade to add a pop of colour to your décor. Spice up your bedroom with new bedlinen, or add layers with new blankets and throws. Finally, add some personality with some plush cushions in this vibrant colour.
Navy was popular in 2018, and it's going nowhere this year. A deep, dark blue that conjures feelings of richness and luxe. Navy is the perfect colour for a feature wall or statement chair. Be sure to pair navy with mustard for that extra pop.
Teal is another one to watch in 2019. Taking its name from the bird, Teal is a deep green-blue colour. A popular wall paint colour, Teal will add energy to your space. You can also spice up any room with teal curtains or a lush teal rug!
Black is back in vogue, but it must be matt for interiors this year. If you don't want to go too dark, add matt black finishes to your wardrobe. Stylish handles are the perfect finishing touch.
As well as highlighting a core shade for 2019, PANTONE have created two stunning colour palettes – Cravings and Classico. Cravings showcases vibrant pinks, red and greens as well as a rich brown and deep purple. Classico features more neutral tones with cream, blue, grey and black, along with a rich gold and bright apricot. Both palettes are sure to spark some great ideas this year!

Orchard in Blossom
Vincent van Gogh (1853 - 1890), Arles, April 1889
oil on canvas,
73.2 cm x 93.1 cm
Credits (obliged to state): Van Gogh Museum, Amsterdam (Vincent van Gogh Foundation)
Around the southern French city of Arles, there were many fruit orchards. Soon after Van Gogh arrived there in 1888, the spring came. He enthusiastically painted a variety of flowering fruit trees: apricot, almond, apple, peach and in this case plum.
But Van Gogh was not satisfied. He took this canvas with him to Saint-Rémy (FR) and kept working on it from memory. 'I have found a way better to express the harmony of the tones', he wrote.

December 11, 1994, Section 11, Page 1Buy Reprints
In 1992, when Chrysler showed the world its strikingly different Chrysler Concorde, Dodge Intrepid and Eagle Vision sedans, it introduced a new term -- "cab-forward design" -- to the automotive lexicon.
Expect to hear the term a lot more. Although cab-forward was pioneered by Chrysler, which now uses it as a basis for most of its passenger cars, other manufacturers are adopting the principle. And cab-forward is far more than a marketing gimmick; it has brought about a pronounced shift in auto design, with the entire vehicle designed around its primary function: hauling people and their possessions.
When viewed in profile, the passenger cabin of a cab-forward car appears to have moved forward, the hood is shorter and the windshield is longer and more steeply raked. Passenger space becomes the top priority. The engine compartment is smaller, with less room for mechanical and electronic systems.
In conjunction with cab-forward design, the vehicle's wheelbase -- the distance between the front and rear wheels -- is increased as the wheels are pushed out toward the corners of the car.
With its variation on the concept, called Optispace, Mazda asserts that it has taken cab-forward a step further by making interior surfaces more concave and spacious. The 1995 Mazda Protege beats Chrysler's Neon in the Environmental Protection Agency's interior volume figures (95 cubic feet, compared with 88.6), but both vehicles have truly cavernous interiors, given their diminutive exterior dimensions.
Regardless of the maker or the moniker, cab-forward cars seem larger than traditional designs. Although the interior of the soon-to-be-discontinued Dodge Spirit has almost a cubic foot more of volume, as measured by the E.P.A., than the Dodge Stratus that is replacing it, the Stratus seems much more roomy.

Our students range from the early stages of their careers to having for 20 years or more experience in the business. Among the various Real Estate professions represented in our program are Building Systems Specialists for branches of provincial governments and Real Estate Advisors for various firms. Their diverse backgrounds and levels of experience make for an excellent peer support network.
In this specialty stream, students learn how to guide their organizations to more robust performance by using some of the most advanced online teaching and learning techniques. It teaches collaborative leadership in the context of dual objectives and multiple stakeholders and offers a series of specialty courses focused exclusively on the needs of real estate leaders.

- Three (3) Real Estate Leadership curriculum courses
- One (1) Consulting Project course
Finish the program in 7 months:
- Seven (7) weeks per Real Estate Leadership curriculum course
- Seven (7) weeks for the Consulting Project course
The Online Experience
To maximize the global learning experience, students participate in exclusive vClasses (virtual classes) instructed by accomplished leaders from global organizations and post-secondary institutions. Students work on case studies and projects with colleagues from around the world, allowing them the unique ability to grasp complex concepts from a global perspective.
Online learning can be unfamiliar for many students, and we understand that. If you have any questions, we recommend signing up for our next Information Session:
Real Estate Leadership Curriculum:
REL 8050 – Leading Property Management
Most property owners use real estate property managers when they rent properties. As owners increasingly see real estate as a financial investment tool, owners actively seek property managers that are qualified, consistent, use the latest tools and are aware of the latest regulation and laws in their business. In this course, students will explore the area of property management, learn how to lead in the practice, examine various software tools to aid in the process of management and price their services to encourage a growing client practice. Day to day activities of the property management will be identified and analyzed.
REL 8051 – Vital Skills for the Real Estate Professional
Real Estate professionals are under increasing demand to provide top quality services and technically savvy marketing for buyers and sellers with pressure to do so at the lowest cost possible. In this course, students will study methods for marketing properties and their practice using social media, technical tools available to them as real estate professionals, public relations techniques, methods of communication in the practice and skills to help build a thriving real estate practice including social media, tech tools, communication and PRI.
REL 8052 – Market Trends in Real Estate
Real estate is a constantly changing environment; from demand and supply to interest rates and buyer/seller expectations, real estate professionals must be able to identify and stay ahead of market trends to grow a thriving practice. In this course, students will analyze market trends in real estate, identify legal and regulatory changes and impact and explore market trends in the business.
MC 9000 – Consulting Project
The Master's Certificate consulting project is a capstone course undertaken individually or with one other student. Under the supervision of a faculty member, the student will cooperate with a current organization and identify one or more issues with which the organization needs help. The project will involve the integration and synthesis of relevant knowledge acquired during the three other courses in their Certificate program. The consulting project is practically oriented rather than academic, but the student will need to include a literature review and include a discussion as to why the project is important in their area of study and how they will be applying the new knowledge from their specialty. The final deliverable is an approximately 25-35 double-spaced report which identifies one or more issues the organization faces and well-justified suggestions for how to remedy this situation. Alternatively, the students can write a business startup plan analysis if they themselves want to start a company or a non-profit organization.
Alex Kollar, Real Estate Leadership Specialty Stream
"My favorite experiences at UFred are connecting with students, many of whom are from various professional backgrounds, age groups, and experiences … UFred offered a flexible MBA program with diverse professors from all over Canada and the US."

Mobile phone industry gears up for Barca gathering2 min read . Updated: 15 Feb 2009, 10:11 AM IST
Mobile phone industry gears up for Barca gathering
Mobile phone industry gears up for Barca gathering
By AFP
Barcelona: The mobile phone industry recently reached the milestone of its four billionth connection worldwide, but the cold winds of economic crisis will chill celebrations at the sector's biggest annual gathering this week.
The majority of the planet is now texting, calling or surfing on mobile handsets and the potential for growth in developing countries is undiminished-- 2.7 billion are still without a connection.
Yet despite this and the relatively recession-proof business of providing telephone connections, the industry as a whole is bracing for a downturn and anticipating a fall in investment.
As well as the launch of new products and industry initiatives, the crisis is set to dominate the four-day Mobile World Congress, the world's biggest industry event, which kicks off on Monday in Barcelona.
"For a long time people believed that telecoms would be spared, but as it is a global crisis everyone is going to be affected," said Thomas Husson, an analyst for research group Forrester.
The network operators are better protected than others because consumers are unlikely to drastically cut back on making calls or sending text messages.
"The telecom sector compared with others such as the automobile industry or finance, is nevertheless better protected, notably because of the need to renew handsets and monthly subscription payments that generate steady income," Husson added.
Makers of handsets, those counting on the development of advertising on mobile, or the leading players in the multi-billion industry for building mobile networks are already feeling the pinch, however.
Finland's mighty group Nokia, the biggest handset maker in the world, announced a near 20% fall in handset sales in the fourth quarter of last year. It reported a sharp drop in profit and said it would concentrate on cutting costs this year.
Research group Gartner predicts that annual handset sales will fall in 2009 for the first time in history, declining 1.0-4.0%.
The event in Barcelona brings together 60,000 industry insiders from 1,200 companies, according to the organisers, the GSMA Association.
All the major network operators such as Vodafone, MTN or China Mobile will be present, as well as handset makers like Nokia or Samsung. Microsoft, Yahoo! and a host of start-ups looking to tout their services will also attend.
One notable absence will be Californian trailblazer Apple, whose new iPhone was the talk of the event last year. Its influence can be seen in the design of any of the new top-end models brought out by rival manufacturers.
One among many new product launches expected at the show will be the first mobile phones from Taiwan-based IT manufacturer Acer. One of them, according to rumours on mobile phone websites, will be double-sided with screens on each face.
Fellow Asian computer makers Toshiba and Asus are also looking to enter the market, while US-based Dell is also said to be weighing a move.

Thailand has undergone a significant amount of modernization and development, but luckily the one thing that hasn't changed is the abundance of excellent street food that permeates daily life. During my last visit to Thailand, I discovered Roti Sen Ma (which roughly translates to a crepe and silk threads), one of my favorite Thai desserts that's a specialty of the Ayutthaya area. The green stuff is like finely spun, super delicate and slightly crunchy thread-like cotton candy, and you wrap it like a burrito inside of a thin, warm crepe (roti).
The crepe is also incredible in its own right. In the photo below, the guy in the background is the best crepe maker I've ever seen. He doesn't use any tools except for his hands and a basic spackle knife (the kind you buy at a hardware store). His crepes are super thin and tender and are the perfect vehicle for nestling in the sugar threads.
The only catch for obtaining this incredible Roti Sen Mai is that the stands that make this are mainly located near the area of Ayutthaya which is outside of Bangkok (and not in the usual touristy areas), and most of the stands are located along the side of a large, busy, fast moving highway. So, you kind of have to risk life and limb a bit as you park on the side of the highway and pray that no one hits you or your car while you trot over to the stand to make your purchase. Maybe all that adrenaline enhances the flavor of the Roti Sen Mai even more.

DOG CLASSES REPORT - Judge Tony Granger (Shadybower)
A big thank you to George, Agnes and all the committee for their kind invitation to judge the Dog classes at their 2011 Championship Show. Also many thanks to my two very able stewards for their excellent work in keeping the show running smoothly.
Veteran Dog (3 entered)
1st Baldwin's Ch Fortonpark G'Day Bruce. Good Sized male of 8 ¼ years. Beautiful head with classic markings, good strong neck. Plenty of bone for his size, carrying correct body weight, looking good on the move holding his topline well with plenty of reach and drive. Super temperament. Reserve Best Veteran in Show.
2nd Bird's Bernsteph Louis Vuitton ShCM. Another example of excellent breed type. Just 8 years old. Strong broad head with well defined stop, kind dark eyes, well shaped broad muzzle. Good chest with excellent legs with nice round feet. Topline good in stance and on the move.
3rd McLeod's Torralbaz Hogmanay. Medium sized 7 years old. Very good body shape, nice level topline, enough bone for size. Very easy on the move. Not the head of my first or second but overall a good sound dog.
Judge - Tony Granger (Shadybower)
It was a pleasure and a privilege to judge for the club, and I had a thoroughly enjoyable weekend. My thanks to the club for the invitation, and for their hospitality. There were some excellent exhibits on the day amongst a strong entry. Although the dreadful weather forced us inside, whilst it served to wet everything through in a very literal sense, it didn't seem to dampen everyone's spirits - (if you'll excuse the metaphor) it's a credit to the exhibitors - and their dogs - that everyone remained so upbeat, despite the best efforts of the (not so) great Scottish weather! The committee, as ever, worked tirelessly to make sure everything ran smoothly, not just for the show, but for the whole weekend.
1st Baldwin's Fortonpark Sheilado. 8 year old bitch in excellent condition. Good head and eye, well marked and good compact shape with good conformation. Moved soundly and with drive, belying her mature years.
2nd Baldwin's Ch Fortonpark Sheilablige. It was very close between these two (litter sisters) and she has many similar attributes to 1. She is in excellent condition, is a good shape and moved well, although her front movement was just not quite as strong.
3rd Gerrard's Ch. Torralbaz Posh persuasion. Another quality bitch in what was a class of real substance. In top condition, good conformation and substantial body - although her ample proportions meant that her movement was not quite as fluent and cohesive.
Res Boyd's Lujento Senza Madonna
VHC Tull's Holzern Rosy Future
Minor Puppy Bitch (8)
1st Chandler's Sennenson Miss Maja. 7 month old bitch who really impressed. Lovely shape and conformation with good compact proportions. Good depth of chest and strong level topline. Correct angulation from all views which unsurprisingly led to good movement, but what was surprising was that she was well coordinated on the move for one so young with her steady even gait and ability to cover the ground with an unfussy fluency.

Maiden Bitch (3, 2)
1st Hay's Pasturegreen Snow Boots. A puppy from a previous class, she is very lively exhibiting that typical puppy exuberance - which although great to see, is not ideal for the show ring. She has plenty of time to settle though and far better to be outgoing than nervous! That said, she went better in this class than the previous and was more settled. Looks slightly rangy at the moment but shows promise and has all the attributes to enable her to develop into a very good dog. She has good shape and when moving calmly, can move well.
Novice Bitch (5, 1)
1st Notman's Elnside the Wild Child. At just a year old, she is progressing well. Pretty expression with good eye and bite, but head needs to develop on a little more, which it will no doubt do in time. Of good temperament, well marked and moved reasonably well carrying a level topline.

2nd Edge's Monologue Dutch Affair. Of similar qualities to 1 (litter sister) but if needing to split hairs, so to speak, she just lost out on head and expression with not quite such dark pigmentation on her face. But that's the fine detail, and she has an plethora of other qualities which make her a very good bitch indeed. 3rd Baldwin's Fortonpark It's a Star.

Your Easiest Way into the Cannabis Industry
There are so many Americans looking for a career in the cannabis industry right now. Growers are the obvious position most people think of first, and then I'd have to say budtender comes second. There are many other positions to fill such as extractions, security, transportation, and many more. However, the most opportunity in this booming marketplace comes from the most vital part of the business: What else? Sales!
Too many would-be job seekers have this dream of a salary position or great hourly pay. Truth be told, those positions are for people who have earned it, or who are happy with making 60k a year, give or take. Get that thought out of your head. This industry is about big sales. If you want to make six or seven figures in this industry, get a 100% commission-based deal and get knocking! There is nothing more rewarding than landing an account at a new location. There are so many different angles that one can take to sell this plant. Flower, oil, concentrates, edibles, topicals, and the list keeps going. The possibilities are endless if you take the risk and decide to do sales.
You need to have faith in yourself and trust the process. A great salesman is not born, they are created. This product will sell itself, always has and always will. As long as you don't walk in the building and start making enemies, you'll make sales. Stick to it and remain humble, and before you know it you will have a large book of business and your phone will ring all day long.

Well, I finally did it! I stepped out of my comfort zone of me being in control of my own adventure. I decided to leave it up to the big "Fun Ships" of Carnival Cruise line to sail me away and show me what they've got. Let me tell you, ADVENTURE awaits and is plentiful.
Even though I've sold thousands of cruises, attend seminars and trainings I had my own hesitations, but now that I have this sailing under my belt I can tell you all my concerns have floated away.
My biggest reservation about cruising was there wouldn't be enough ADVENTURE on board. Well duh, there is actually a ship named the ADVENTURE OF THE SEAS!

On March 4, 2018, Kobe Bryant took the stage at the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles to collect his Academy Award. Announcing his name Mark Hammil, actor made famous for his portrayal of Luke Skywalker in the Star Wars saga.
The Lakers legend won in the "Short Animated Films" category with the movie "Dear Basketball" written by Bryant himself and based on his letters addressed to the world of basketball in 2015, before leaving this sport forever.
His award ceremony will remain in history as Kobe was the first and only professional player of the NBA to receive an Oscar and especially the first African-American to win in this category.
Evidently, however, these two records did not seem enough to the Academy of Motion Pictures and Sciences, the organization that every year in March assigns the prestigious statuettes to the professionals of cinema.
The Oscar winners of all categories have direct access to the selection phase to become part of the Academy and then be able to decide who will be the winners of the years to come. However, an Oscar does not seem to allow direct access to the prestigious Hollywoodian organization.
In fact, the Academy has refused the entry of Kobe Bryant as his member claiming that his contribution to the world of cinema is limited to that one short animated movie and therefore not to be considered as a relevant talent according to TMZ.com
This is the motivation behind the rejection that perplexes many, especially considering the scandal in which Kobe Bryant was involved.
In 2003, in fact, Bryant had been accused of rape by a woman who had brought him to trial. The trial ended with an agreement between the parties that had seen Kobe Bryant pay the sum of five million dollars.
The award ceremony with the Oscar of Kobe Bryant in the era of the #metoo movements had attracted several criticisms, it seemed a whammy towards those who were fighting for women's rights and who had succeeded somehow by having swept away from the awards ceremony actors entangled in events similar to those of Bryant as James Franco and Casey Affleck, winner in 2017 as best actor.
The exclusion of Kobe Bryant from the Academy could therefore be a further attempt by Hollywood elite to clean up his image after the huge Weinstein scandal and the numerous cases of harassment that involved the biggest stars in Hollywood. Or maybe they are just right, a short animated movie does not turn anybody into movie star…

HOUSTON (KTRK) -- It seems like an epidemic as oversized trucks are hitting overhead bridges while traveling on Houston freeways.
The latest one happened Tuesday morning, when the Eastbound lanes of I-10 had to be shut down after an oversized truck hit the Houston Avenue bridge.
This was the third time the bridge had been hit in the last month.
The other two strikes happened on September 17 and October 6.
TxDOT reopened the lanes after inspecting the bridge and determining that there was no threat to safety.
The agency is working to hire a contractor to make repairs.
The W. Dallas Bridge over I-45 wasn't so lucky. An oversized load hit it back on September 2.
The bridge will have to be demolished and rebuilt. Until then, no heavy trucks can use the bridge.
In each of these cases, the truck drivers were either not permitted, or had diverted from their approved route, according to TxDOT spokesperson Danny Perez.

My teachers refused to teach me because they "weren't in the mood"
When I joined my high school, my fluency in Urdu sucked. My accent, vocabulary and my pronunciation of the language was so bad that when it was my turn to recite anything, the whole class would burst out laughing. My teacher never said anything to me and only corrected me where I was wrong. He would smile and tell me to go on. On some occasions, he would make sure I was the one who read out loud. Never once did I ever feel threatened or discouraged. Over the period of two years, my Urdu improved and my vocabulary got so much better ...Read Full Post

As I asked her about her day, she started telling me about her performance in a Sindhi class test. She said that the day before the Sindhi test, she was really exhausted and didn't feel like studying for it. She had aced it anyway.

While winding up the lesson, the teacher turned towards the clock to check the time – there were 20 minutes remaining. Opting for a pop quiz, he asked everyone to take out a rough sheet of paper. One of the students eagerly did so – for history was her favourite subject – but as she scribbled the answer 'Treaty of Versailles' to the question asked by the teacher, she saw terror approaching from the corner of her eyes. She heard the dreaded words, "Please step outside and bring your diary along." And quietly moved toward the door while all the students stared ...Read Full Post

Teaching your son to think of others can be a daunting task. Teenagers can be very self-focused. They have a lot on their minds, including social status, relationships, puberty, assessments, examinations and friends.
Learning to think of others, rather than himself, can have a profound impact on your son's life and relationships. Key to this is having healthy relationships that are built on respect, trust and empathy – the ability to understand and feel the emotions of others.
Collossians 3:12-14 offers a simple way to approach relationships: "… as God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity."
To make the task of imparting knowledge and understanding less daunting, we offer five tips for teaching your son to think of others.
1. Show empathy and compassion
Empathy is a critical skill and shouldn't be underestimated. To assist your son in developing empathy and compassion for those around him, open his eyes to the world. Broaden his horizons and encourage him to take note of current and global events. Talk things through and look at the different angles of a problem and how others may be affected and what they may be feeling.
2. Be thankful and appreciative
Teach your son how to say thank you. People who are grateful have the ability to look outside their one-dimensional universe. They understand that others do things for them, care for them and think about them. A study at the University of California showed that grateful people report higher levels of happiness and optimism, along with lower levels of depression and stress. Encourage your son to have an attitude of gratitude and talk about the things he appreciates each day.
3. Be thoughtful and show your son that you care
Our children learn from what they see. If your son sees your caring actions towards others, it will become second nature for him. Show him how to be thoughtful by taking him through the process, step by step. Another important step in teaching your son to care is by caring for him. Show him that you care by supporting his decisions, praising him for his successes and helping him when he is in need.
4. Recognise kindness
Teach your son to recognise kindness. If a peer helps him with homework; when a friend gives him positive feedback; or if a mate offers support when he is feeling down, remind your son that those actions are acts of kindness. They are examples of people thinking about him and acting on their thoughts. Encourage your son to think about how he feels receiving such acts of kindness.
5. Make caring a priority
Above all, make caring for others a priority. Praise your son for thinking of others like you would praise him for achieving high grades or winning his soccer game. Learning to think of others is like learning how to play a sport, it takes practise, persistence and encouragement.
R U OK? Day is on 14 September 2017. A Day dedicated to inspiring and empowering people to meaningfully connect with those around them and support anyone struggling with life. It is all about thinking of others. With such an important day around the corner, we encourage you to think of your loved ones and ask, "R U OK?"
Trinity's Pastoral Care guidelines focus on the fundamentals of good parenting enabling boys to grow into caring, self-confident, resilient young men.

XYRATEX CERTIFIES STORAGE SOLUTIONS WITH CAMINOSOFT'S INFORMATION LIFECYCLE MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE--Companies Complete Interoperability Testing, Establish Technology Partnership--
WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif--August 13, 2007 -- CaminoSoft Corp. (OTC.BB:CMSF - News), a leading provider of Information Lifecycle Management (ILM) solutions for Microsoft Windows 2000/2003, Novell NetWare and NetApp Filer environments, today announced that its Managed Server HSM™ software suite has successfully completed interoperability testing and certification with storage solutions from Xyratex, a leading provider of enterprise class data storage subsystems and storage process technology.
"CaminoSoft's collaboration with Xyratex reflects our ongoing commitment to certify our ILM software with industry-leading storage products," said Richard Krueger, CaminoSoft's vice president of marketing and alliances. "Given the ongoing dramatic increase in the creation of information, organizations need effective management tools to deal with their storage systems growth. By offering CaminoSoft's ILM software in conjunction with Xyratex's Fibre Channel, iSCSI, SAS and SATA technologies, our joint channel partners are afforded a broad range of storage choices in meeting enterprise and SMB customer requirements."
"Xyratex storage enclosures are enhanced to support tiered storage environments, and we are confident this qualification will complement our variety of solutions," said Lisa Hart, vice president of marketing and alliances, Xyratex Networked Storage Solutions. "We are excited to continue our working relationship with CaminoSoft and anticipate that our customers will welcome the many benefits and advantages this partnership will deliver them."
CaminoSoft's storage management solutions enable organizations to set up policies that automate the migration, recall, retention and deletion of files, performing these functions transparently from the standpoint of system users. Multiple "managed servers" are easily administered from a central Windows console.
Managed Server HSM software requires minimal IT intervention to install and set up, and supports file migration across an unlimited number of storage tiers. This allows semi-active or inactive files to be migrated from high-performance primary storage to designated cost-effective secondary storage resources, then subsequently to fixed-content archival tertiary storage.
Key advantages for customers include: reclaiming production storage space for active file usage; dramatically reducing the amount of time needed for backup (and recovery in the event of a server outage); and facilitating compliance with corporate governance and industry regulations.
