STAFF at Essex University have voted to take industrial action in a row over changes to pensions.
Talks are scheduled between the University and College Union and 69 universities - including Essex - tomorrow to see if a resolution can be found.
Union bosses have said if detrimental changes to The Universities Superannuation Scheme (USS) - the pension scheme for most UK universities - go ahead, members will decide what form the disruption will take and when it would start.
The most likely outcome would see members carry out a marking boycott and refuse to set exams, which would result in students not getting formal marks or feedback.
The changes to the scheme have been prompted by an expected financial deficit.
But the union says the method used to calculate the deficit is too simplistic and doesn't take account of the scheme's strengths because it has grown by £8billion since 2011.
Research by First Actuarial has shown academics would stand to lose thousands of pounds worse off if the changes did go through.
In the ballot, 78 per cent of those who voted, voted for strike action.
Some 87 per cent voted for action short of a strike, which could include a marking boycott.
Just below half of members voted.

God Hunter - Chapter 1
I took a deep breath in. It didn't take long to perceive and acknowledge the situation. The sun was still up and my heart was beating faster than ever. I sat on the chair in the middle of a messy room. Then, I picked up the remote and turned the TV on.
"Introducing, the group that became an instant hit with their first album! The girl group who is as sweet as cotton candy, Sweet Honey!"
Moments later, 11 young girls appeared on the screen and started a cute dance.
Many people cheered them on, and I couldn't take my eyes off of them as well. However, I was cheering for a different reason. I remembered that girl group as well as the subsequent idol groups and singers that came on after them.
'It was March 2015.'
I confirmed the date again. My current self was still in a daze about traveling back in time.
In order to stir the future into the right direction, I need to be aware of my every action and choices. I made a note of this to myself.
'It's dangerous to leave any traces behind.'
Nothing was clear to me right now. If Minshik returned along with me, it was possible that another dangerous element may exist. This was why I needed to keep my thoughts to myself.
But first...March 2, 2015.
It's been 10 days since his parents passed away.
I was 19-years old and a junior in high school. Back then, I wasn't particularly talented in anything, but I enjoyed playing soccer with my friends. After my parents passed away in the car accident, I would be a homebody and a hermit holed in my house for quite some time.
'It's been two years since my name was registered into Mr. Yang's family.'
Mr. Yang only took me in because he was interested in was my insurance money.
But this situation lasted for only two years.
Two years later, the entire world would undergo a massive apocalypse.
A rift that connected Earth to another dimension opened and the existence of otherworldly monsters was revealed to the world. Luckily, I awakened as a Magic Swordsman and started walking the path of a hero after being elected by the government.
'But, the door has already been opened.'
I didn't know back then. But I survived as the remaining hero of humanity; of course, I came to know all sorts of secrets in the world.
The rift was already open in 2015, just around this time period.
No one tried to deliberately cover it up, and the monsters that crossed over were too few in number to be discovered.
'This means…I have two years to prepare.'
Monster and awakened humans. Those that were coined the title 'superhuman' would begin to awake in two years time. Additionally, although they were small in numbers, some awakened even now.
It was possible that they weren't aware their newfound powers. Even though they might have awakened, they could only grow stronger by hunting monsters. Recently awakened humans were just a bit stronger than ordinary people. On the other hand, although I awakened two years after the rift had opened, I was able to grow more quickly than others. The Magic Swordsman class that I awakened as was the main reason for my growth.
But I am here two years before the beginning of the true apocalypse. This was a bouncing board for me to reach even higher boundaries than I achieved in the past.
'The Magic Swordsman class was unique in that I could increase my magic abilities and swordsmanship at the same time. However, I couldn't reach the pinnacle of any skill as well.'
For a moment, I contemplated about the power I had in the past. Magic Swordsman. I was guaranteed growth at a fast pace since I was able to use two different powers. But as time passed, I reached a bottleneck. Even though I remained as the last surviving hero, I couldn't reach my true potential.
I stroked my chin. Since I returned, I had to choose which path I would walk on.
'The rift is open already, and if I wanted to, I could acquire another hidden class.'
The more overpopulated an area was, the more rifts would be opened. Of course, a rift was currently open in Korea this year, and I knew it was.
However, I didn't want to take any rash actions.
'Minshik. He came back too…'
Minshik was kind. It was in his nature to help those in need and would give candy to a kid who was crying. He was so innocent that he wouldn't watch any porn. But, as soon as this world became chaotic, he became the middle manager of a newly rising cult named Aletheia. The newly rising cult, Aletheia!
They bred monsters and massacred humans, turning them into the center of evil.
There was no excuse for his actions.
To be a part of a group like that meant his hands were covered in the blood of countless people. It also meant that he wasn't innocent anymore. But he still came looking for me. He ran towards me and gave me a hug.
Did he want to renew our old friendship?
'A new life, a new friendship.'
Before locating the temple, I tried to get rid of Aletheia several times. And when I met Minshik during my third attempt, he was pessimistic about himself because he was jealous of how powerful I had become.
He said he would turn back time and become a hero. A hero, a better hero than me!
He was crying like a kid and I couldn't it in myself to kill him. Seeing Minshik wet his pants and stuttering away from me, I couldn't strike the fatal blow to his heart.
'Let's think calmly.'
I wasn't overconfident nor was did I underestimate myself. If Minshik found out that I returned with him, he could turn his blade towards me making it the worst case scenario.
The memories in my head were top secret. The only one that could handle them was me.
He said that he would become a hero, but he had already deeply associated himself with evil.
'What if Minshik wasn't the only one that returned?'
This was my biggest worry.
What if the other followers returned to the past through Chronos's power?
I would become their main enemy as I tried to wipe them out multiple times in the past. Since I attacked their temple, I would be the first on their list to eliminate.
Thus, there was a need to carefully analyze my current situation. There could be a connection between Minshik and Aletheia. I needed to get rid of the idea that Minshik and I were the only ones that returned.
Someone could be watching my every move right now. I'll have to think about every possible outcome, including worst case scenarios, before taking any action.
'I guess I need to act for the time being.'
I'm talking about a teenager who just lost his parents.
I spent five more days eating ramen bowls in my room without ventilation. Not knowing who might appear, I didn't bother to wash. I couldn't look more exhausted than I already was.
Of course, I set up a few simple traps in case of any emergency.
'No one is watching me.'
This was my conclusion after carefully taking note of my surroundings for the past couple of days. I had donned a hat and pretended to walk to the store to watch for any suspicious activity, but I didn't feel anyone observing me. If no one was watching me, this meant I could be more active.
With the television and the internet, I tried to search for any abnormalities that were occurring in the world lately.
'There weren't any changes that were eye catching.'
During the past five days, there were a couple phone calls for me. I didn't answer any of them. Instead, I watched the news and scoured the internet even more for any signs.
In the end, nothing came up as expected. I didn't remember any unusual occurrences back then as well.
'Did the followers of Aletheia not return?'
There was no way to verify this; I just left it as a possibility.
They were violent. If most of them had returned, a catastrophe would have happened by now.
I drank the remaining broth from the ramen bowl. Ramen was all I ate during the past five days. It was getting stale, but I didn't care much.
While I was actively serving in the world government, many industrial products stopped being manufactured causing ramen bowls to rise up in value as a valuable good. Of course, I could have eaten them if I wanted to, but as the last remaining hero, I had to be a role model.
It was to the extent that after killing a monster, I had to stand on a platform and put on a forceful smile for the cameras, making it one of the most awkward moments of my life. This was why I was fine with eating ramen bowls for a month.
Knock. Knock.
It was at this moment.
The thread that I strung on to the outside of the window started trembling.
I immediately turned my gaze to the small mirror that was beside the computer. The small mirror reflected the hallway outside of the door. I angled it so that I could check to see who was coming.
'It's Mr. Yang…and his daughter.'
Mr. Yang. His full name was Yang Manwoo. His daughter's name was Yang Eunha. He used to work with my father since I was little and visited our family often.
Yang Manwoo stood in front of the door and started shouting.
"Hansung! Open the door, please. How long are you going to stay in there?"
Bang, bang, bang!
Yang Manwoo knocked on the door continuously.
"I was worried so I got the keys from the security guard. If you don't open the door, I will."
I had no choice but to open the door. Seeing my exhausted face, Yang Manwoo let out a deep sigh. Then, he opened his arms and gave me a hug.
"You idiot. Why are you being so stupid? Huh? You should eat properly at least. The dead won't come back so the living should keep on living."
Pat! Pat!
He patted my back while hugging me tightly.
"Let's go in. Let's go in and talk. I have a lot to say to you."
He forced himself into my house as if he didn't care about what I thought. Yang Manwoo was that kind of person. The kind that had no respect for other people.
Yang Eunha carefully followed behind her dad. She looked like a junior in high school and objectively speaking, she was incredibly pretty.
She was the typical beauty with a tall figure and a flowing jet-black hair.
Even if she was donning shorts and a simple white t-shirt, she would attract the gazes of men.
She was just as pretty as the members of the Sweet Honey group that appeared on TV or other idol groups in general
'I remember.'
I saw Yang Manwoo several times, but it's been years since I've seen Yang Eunha. The last time I saw her, she was in middle school. When I saw her then, it felt like I was seeing a flower bloom. He probably brought her here to see my reaction…
"Ugh, the smell."
As soon as she walked inside, Eunha pinched her nose and scrunched her face up. And she looked at me as if she was dissatisfied.
She was an arrogant girl. She was probably forced to come here by her dad.
Yang Manwoo forced her to come. His intentions were obvious.
"Eunha, please be understanding. Hansung is going through hard times right now. Don't you think we should be more understanding in times like this?"
"Dad, this isn't a place a human could live in."
"Ah, Hansung. You've seen Eunha when you were in middle school right? She's my daughter. She may seem ill-mannered, but she's a really good kid at heart. She insisted on cleaning your house for you, so I had no choice but to bring her here."
I leaned myself against the sofa for a moment and remembered the past. I was entranced by Yang Eunha when she walked into my house at this exact moment in the past.
Yang Manwoo had comforted me and tried to manipulate me like this back then. Taking my life insurance money and inheritance was his ulterior motive.

EPA settlement to fund keiki blood lead testing on Maui
Destination Maui Inc. will pay $55,000 for failing failing to notify its tenants about the potential presence of lead-based paint at eight properties located on Maui as part of a settlement announced Wednesday by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
Destination Maui Inc. will pay $55,000 for failing failing to notify its tenants about the potential presence of lead-based paint at eight properties located on Maui as part of a settlement announced Wednesday by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
"More than half a million children in America have blood lead levels that can lead to learning disabilities and behavior problems," said Jared Blumenfeld, EPA's Regional Administrator for the Pacific Southwest. "Household paint is the main source of exposure, so it's crucial for landlords to provide tenants the information they need to protect their families from lead poisoning."
In addition to a fine of $5,500, Destination Maui will spend approximately $49,500 to fund the testing of 350 children for lead exposure and provide blood lead analysis equipment to three community health clinics operated by Malama I Ke Ola Health Center on Maui that serve low-income and homeless residents. The blood testing program will take place over the next three years, and will target uninsured children under the age of 6 years old.
An EPA inspection found that the firm did not provide information about the potential presence of lead-based paint before leasing eight properties in Kahului, Kihei, Wailuku, Lahaina, Makawao, Kula and Haiku. These actions violated the federal Toxic Substances Control Act.
The inspection was one of several conducted at property management firms in May 2011 throughout Maui that rent older housing that may have a risk of lead hazards. EPA places a high priority on addressing environmental health risks like lead poisoning that disproportionately affect children and environmental justice communities. Even low levels of lead in the blood of children can result in behavior and learning problems, lower IQ and hyperactivity, and other harmful health effects. Because such effects may not be immediately apparent in young children, testing is recommended to identify lead poisoning and take action to prevent further harm.
The federal government banned lead-based paint from housing in 1978. Federal law requires that persons and entities that sell or rent housing built before 1978, such as the units managed by Destination Maui involved in this case, provide lead hazard information to buyers or tenants. In addition, contractors who work on such housing or child-occupied facilities must be certified by EPA if they perform significant renovation, repair, or painting.

text: Ms. Robinson's brain jumps out of this collection as if it's a pop-up book to entertain children. She's smart, not just "like, a smart person" smart, but actually intelligent and a great writer. Unfortunately, despite the grand premise of this book, my eyes got too squinty trying to follow her through the parade of religious figures and Shakespeare and Marx and discussions of ontology. The book begins with a bang, a strong cry in defense of the humanities that are being flushed down the toilet by current culture. This phrase in particular haunted me: "the spirit of the times is one of joyless urgency…" While meandering through the Reformation, she brings up an interesting point about how in addition to bringing knowledge to the masses by way of freeing it from obscure Latin, an immediate result was "The emergence of the great modern languages out of the shadow of Latin, with their power and beauty and dignity fully demonstrated in the ambitious uses being made of them."

Economics in Three Lessons and One Hundred Economics Laws: Two Works in One Volume
Hunter Lewis (Author)
DescriptionEconomics in Three Lessons Henry Hazlitt's 1946 book Economics in One Lesson sold more than a million copies. It is perhaps the best selling economics book of all time. In this volume, Hunter Lewis, a Hazlitt admirer and student, provides a sequel and update. The central lesson of Hazlitt's seminal work is that economic thought and policy must consider all the consequences of an action, not just the immediate or most visible ones. Hazlitt is right that this is the kernel of all good economics. Lewis covers this theme and also introduces two more lessons: how a free and uncontrolled price system creates prosperity and how a controlled or manipulated price system creates only crony capitalist corruption and, ultimately, poverty and economic failure. The great merit of this volume is its simplicity. Anyone can read and understand it. It is an ideal introduction to economics. One Hundred Economic Laws In this groundbreaking volume, Lewis does what no one has attempted to do, at least not for many decades. It collects in one place some of the most important laws of economics. Everyone understands the importance of understanding the laws of physics and other natural sciences. Are there also laws of economics? Can understanding them also make our lives better? This volume answers with a resounding yes to both questions. We need the laws of economics to help guide our choices and actions in a very uncertain world. We also need them to protect us from the "thinkers for hire" who, paid by special economic interests, try to persuade us to ignore reality. This short book is also a complete course in economics. Unlike the dry-as-dust and often irrelevant textbooks forced on high school and college students, it is written in a lively and even sparkling style.

A data-driven
UICollectionView framework for building fast and flexible lists.
|Main Features
|Never call
performBatchUpdates(_:, completion:) or
reloadData() again
|Better architecture with reusable cells and components
|Create collections with multiple data types
|Decoupled diffing algorithm
|Fully unit tested
|Customize your diffing behavior for your models
UICollectionView at its core
|Extendable API
|Written in Objective-C with full Swift interop support
IGListKit is built and maintained with
- Xcode 8.0+
- iOS 8.0+
- tvOS 9.0+
- Interoperability with Swift 3.0+
The preferred installation method for
IGListKit is with CocoaPods. Simply add the following to your
# Latest release of IGListKit
pod 'IGListKit'
To integrate
IGListKit into your Xcode project using Carthage, specify it in your
github "Instagram/IGListKit" ~> 1.0.0
You can also manually install the framework by dragging and dropping the
IGListKit.xcodeproj into your project or workspace.
Creating your first list
After installing
IGListKit, creating a new list is really simple.
Creating a section controller
Creating a new section controller is very simple. You just subclass
IGListSectionController and conform to the
IGListSectionType protocol. Once you conform to
IGListSectionType, the compiler will make sure you implement all of the required methods.
Take a look at LabelSectionController for an example section controller that handles a
String and configures a single cell with a
class LabelSectionController: IGListSectionController, IGListSectionType {
// ...
Creating the UI
After creating at least one section controller, you must create an
IGListCollectionView and
let layout = UICollectionViewFlowLayout()
let collectionView = IGListCollectionView(frame: .zero, collectionViewLayout: layout)
let updater = IGListAdapterUpdater()
let adapter = IGListAdapter(updater: updater, viewController: self, workingRangeSize: 0)
adapter.collectionView = collectionView
Note: This example is done within a
UIViewControllerand uses both a stock
IGListAdapterUpdater. You can use your own layout and updater if you need advanced features!
Connecting a data source
The last step is the
IGListAdapter's data source and returning some data.
func objects(for listAdapter: IGListAdapter) -> [IGListDiffable] {
// this can be anything!
return [ "Foo", "Bar", 42, "Biz" ]
func listAdapter(_ listAdapter: IGListAdapter, sectionControllerFor object: Any) -> IGListSectionController {
if object is String {
return LabelSectionController()
} else {
return NumberSectionController()
func emptyView(for listAdapter: IGListAdapter) -> UIView? {
return nil
You can return an array of any type of data, as long as it conforms to
IGListDiffable. We've included a default implementation for all objects, but adding your own implementation can unlock even better diffing.
IGListKit uses an algorithm adapted from a paper titled A technique for isolating differences between files by Paul Heckel. This algorithm uses a technique known as the longest common subsequence to find a minimal diff between collections in linear time
O(n). It finds all inserts, deletes, updates, and moves between arrays of data.
To add custom, diffable models, you need to conform to the
IGListDiffable protocol and implement
diffIdentifier() and
For an example, consider the following model:
class User {
let primaryKey: Int
let name: String
// implementation, etc
The user's
primaryKey uniquely identifies user data, and the
name is just the value for that user.
Let's say a server returns a
User object that looks like this:
let shayne = User(primaryKey: 2, name: "Shayne")
But sometime after the client receives
shayne, someone changes their name:
let ann = User(primaryKey: 2, name: "Ann")
shayne and
ann represent the same unique data because they share the same
primaryKey, but they are not equal because their names are different.
To represent this in
IGListKit's diffing, add and implement the
IGListDiffable protocol:
extension User: IGListDiffable {
func diffIdentifier() -> NSObjectProtocol {
return primaryKey
func isEqual(object: Any?) -> Bool {
if let object = object as? User {
return name == object.name
return false
The algorithm will skip updating two
User objects that have the same
primaryKey and
name, even if they are different instances! You now avoid unecessary UI updates in the collection view even when providing new instances.
Note: Remember that
isEqual(_:)should return
falsewhen you want to reload the cells in the corresponding section controller.
Diffing outside of IGListKit
If you want to use the diffing algorithm outside of
IGListAdapter and
UICollectionView, you can! The diffing algorithm was built with the flexibility to be used with any models that conform to
let result = IGListDiff(oldUsers, newUsers, .equality)
With this you have all of the deletes, reloads, moves, and inserts! There's even a function to generate
NSIndexPath results.
Advanced Features
Working Range
A working range is a range of section controllers who aren't yet visible, but are near the screen. Section controllers are notified of their entrance and exit to this range. This concept lets your section controllers prepare content before they come on screen (e.g. download images).
IGListAdapter must be initialized with a range value in order to work. This value is a multiple of the visible height or width, depending on the scroll-direction.
let adapter = IGListAdapter(updater: IGListAdapterUpdater(),
viewController: self,
workingRangeSize: 1) // 1 before/after visible objects
You can set the weak
workingRangeDelegate on a section controller to receive events.
Supplementary Views
Adding supplementary views to section controllers is as simple as setting the weak
supplementaryViewSource and implementing the
IGListSupplementaryViewSource protocol. This protocol works nearly the same as returning and configuring cells.
Display Delegate
Section controllers can set the weak
displayDelegate delegate to an object, including
self, to receive display events about a section controller and individual cells.
Custom Updaters
The default
IGListAdapterUpdater should handle any
UICollectionView update that you need. However, if you find the functionality lacking, or want to perform updates in a very specific way, you can create an object that conforms to the
IGListUpdatingDelegate protocol and initialize a new
IGListAdapter with it.
Check out the updater
IGListReloadDataUpdater (used in unit tests) for an example.

It is important to pay close attention to your business and evaluate what is and is not working for you. Smart business owners organize to review their business at least once a year. If you have employees, involve them in the process. Ask for feedback, suggestions and new ideas. You might be surprised at what they have to contribute
The following are some questions to help you evaluate your business and plan for growth.?:
* What went well this year
* What did not work so well?
* What areas of my I want to grow in the coming year?
* What are three specific actions that I can make to growth happen?
* Where I spend my time on my business? (It might be helpful to keep track of a few days.)
* How can I better manage my time (on the order, outsourcing, minimizing liabilities, etc.)?
* What is the perfect my vision for my business?
* What specific actions do I take to get my business to the next level?
* What are the limits of ten (or twenty or thirty!) I will put my business in the coming year?
Once you have answered these questions, put your goals in writing. Something magical happens when you commit your goals on paper – they actually get the game! Post established targets next to the table to serve as a constant reminder to stay focused. Entrepreneurs are notorious for changing direction so if you do, simply review your goals and make the necessary changes. With a solid plan in place, you'll pave your way to success!

Forgery in Atlanta Georgia
You may have merely changed a date on a check. You may have been in a rush and signed your family member's name on a document. You may have done nothing wrong at all. Whatever the reason, you have been charged with forgery according to the Georgia statute 16-9-1.
If you or a loved one is charged with forgery in Atlanta Georgia, it is vital to know more about the charge to fight it. For instance, forgery is classified in four degrees. Each degree has its own elements and punishment. First-degree forgery is the most serious of the four forgery degrees.
An Atlanta Georgia Forgery Charge Involves the Intent to Defraud an Alleged Victim
To be charged with forgery means you are accused of intentionally defrauding a victim. Defrauding them may involve deceiving, injuring or tricking an alleged victim to get money or something of value. The act of defrauding ranges from signing a fake document to creating one.
Forgery is further broken down into degrees:
- First-degree forgery involves the intent to defraud by knowingly altering, making or possessing any type of written document other than a check. The document has a fake name or altered information to allegedly give you the authority to do something.
- Second-degree forgery is the intent to defraud by knowingly possessing, making or altering a document in such a way that the person received authority or something of value they would not normally receive. This does not include a written check.
- Third-degree forgery involves the intent to defraud by possessing, altering, uttering, delivering or making a check written in the amount of $1,500 or more. For example, you are accused of using a fake name or altered check to obtain money.

The penalty for each forgery degree is:
- First-degree forgery is punishable by one to 15 years in prison
- Second-degree forgery is punishable by one to five years in prison
- Third-degree forgery is punishable by one to five years in prison
- Fourth-degree forgery is a misdemeanor. It is punishable by 12 months in county jail
Defending Your Forgery Charge in Atlanta Georgia with Yeargan & Kert, LLC
A strong defense begins with understanding your charge. Once you know more about the criminal charge, you can understand more about defenses. For example, the legal significance is a type of defense. The driving idea behind creating a fake document or signature is to have a legal significance. The fake document might be worth money or transfer property. This is the legal significance.
If the document or anything you allegedly forged has no legal significance, you are not guilty of the crime.
The document was actually not false. With this defense, you have to show that the prosecutor was wrong about allegedly the document was false. If you can do this, you may be able to get the charge dropped.
No intent to defraud is another defense. You claim you had no intent to defraud anyone of any money, credit or power.
Mistaken identity is another defense. You are not guilty because you did not prove a fake document. Someone else actually provided the false document and you are getting blamed for it.
The actual innocence defense is that you did not commit the crime at all. You may not an alibi, but you have another way to prove that you are innocent.
Lack of evidence is the type of defense that makes the state show their evidence. You claim they do not have the evidence to take the case to court. You challenge the evidence and tell them they have no evidence. If they do not, they make drop the charges. It really depends on how weak their evidence is against you.
Insufficient evidence is different than a lack of evidence. Insufficient evidence means the state does not have the proper evidence to convict you of a crime. This is another way to get the charges dropped against you.
If the defenses listed are not defenses you can use, do not worry. You do have other defenses available to you. You just have to figure it out with the help of your attorney.
Contact Yeargan & Kert, LLC to Fight Your Atlanta Georgia Forgery Charge
You or your loved one is accused of forgery in Atlanta Georgia. Now that you know more about the charge, it is time to fight the charge. The first step in fighting the charge consists of hiring an attorney. With the help of an attorney, you can come up with a strong defense and have your legal rights protected.
You have plenty of defenses available to fight your charge. One defense is showing you had no intent to defraud an alleged victim of their property. The intent is vital to this charge because state law requires you to commit this crime with the intent to financially harm the alleged victim.
Another legal defense is that your alleged forgery did not have any legal significance. Legal significance involves the forged document being worth money or something of value like a line of credit. If the forged document did not provide you with legal significance, you cannot be charged with this crime.

On June 5 ten years ago, the Outline of National Intellectual Property Strategy was released and implemented. From that moment, IPR was prioritized to the level of national strategy and thus a magnificent journey concerning the future and wellbeing of the nation and its people was unfolded.
During the past ten years in particular since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core has looked far and aimed high, sized up the trend of events, made a series of far-sighted strategic deployment of IP work and therefore guided the IPR undertakings to make historic achievements. Countless inventors, innovative enterprises realized their dreams of growing rich and advancing their own businesses through the use of IPRs. Innovation and creativity in the society has been spurred with products made in China with wisdom being introduced into the world at a fast pace. The IPR system has shown unprecedented vitality, creativity and influence in the area of economy, politics, culture, science and technology.
In the past ten years, the working system on the implementation of nation IP strategy has been established under the leadership of the State Council with unified deployment of the Inter-Ministerial Meeting for the implementation of national IP strategy. It is a system requiring division of duties and coordination of all departments and all regions. The office of Inter-ministerial Conference has formulated and released the Promotion Plan for the Implementation of National IP Strategy for nine consecutive years to make a unified deployment on strategy-related tasks. Most provinces, municipalities and cities have set up their own version of command centers for the formulation or implementation of IP strategy.
In the past ten years, China has seen remarkable progress in the implementation of IP strategy. Both the quality and quantity of IP creation have improved, securing the status of a sizable IP country. The number of patent applications and grants increased rapidly with respective annual average growth rates of 19.56% and 21.29%. The number of domestic valid invention patents rose from 96,000 in 2007 to over a million in 2017. The number of patents owned by per 10,000 people increased from 0.6 in 2007 to 9.8 in 2017. The number of valid registered trademarks increased from 2.353 million in 2007 to 14.92 million in 2017, pacing the world for 16 years in a row. The number of copyright registrations across the nation grew from 138,000 in 2007 to 2.748 million in 2017. The number of copyright registration of computer software exceeded 700,000. As revealed in the 2017 Global Innovation Index released by WIPO, China rose to No. 22 in global innovation index and was the only middle-income economy in the top 25.
China's IP protection has improved significantly while the enthusiasm for innovation and entrepreneurship has been further stimulated. From 2008, the National People's Congress (NPC) and the standing committee of the NPC amended IP laws including Patent Law, Trademark Law and Copyright Law. In sync with these revisions, the State Council amended implementation rules of these laws. China has established an IP system conforming to the international rules and norms covering all areas. Judicial and administrative protection of IP has been completely reinforced. The landscape of IP protection featuring stringent, grand, fast and impartial protection has been gradually established.

"7,000 shoes are lined along the U.S. Capitol today representing every child lost due to gun violence since the 2012 shooting at the Sandy Hook elementary school in Newtown, CT. We cannot wait for another tragedy for Congress to take action. It's time to put politics aside, and pass common sense gun safety legislation that is already supported by both Republicans and Democrats, and the majority of Americans - like closing the gun show and online loopholes, banning military-style assault weapons and bump stocks, and requiring background checks on anyone seeking to purchase a gun. These are actions that Congress can and should take right now. More info: http://abcnews.go.com/US/7000-childrens-shoes-laid-capitol-lawn-honor-lives/story?id=53710394"-TG
Background: Rep. Tulsi Gabbard has cosponsored legislation like the Gun Show Loophole Closing Act, the Public Safety and Second Amendment Rights Act, the Keeping Guns from High Risk Individuals Act, the Assault Weapons Ban, the Support Assault Firearms Elimination and Reduction for our Streets Act, the Domestic Violence Loophole Closure Act, the Automatic Gunfire Prevention Act, and more.

What is Forex? To be successful in Forex trading, you need to understand the purpose and operation of forex trading.
Forex trading is a direct cross-currency trading with world currencies online, where also trade all major banks, multinational corporations, financial institutions, and a small percentage of individuals. The word FOREX is made up of "Foreign Exchange" (which means cross-currency trading) and it is the largest financial market in the world. It is unique and different from the stock market, there are no brokers and office space needed.
Another factor that is different is, that investors are from different parts of the world. Consequently, this leads to the fact that the market is open and active 24 hours a day, no matter what time it is. The largest trading center for trading is in New York and London, where performs the most of trades and the number of applicants is increasing steadily every day.
From the moment the market opens on Sunday night in Australia, until next Friday night when it closes in New York, all the time a numerous transactions are made. On the FOREX turns 2.5 trillion dollars a day, and it represents the largest business in the world. Every moment there is someone who opens and closes the position. The big advantage of currency trading is that regardless of whether the selected currency value increase or decrease, we can make money, as currency trading with world currencies takes place in both directions buy (value decreases) / sale (value increases).

I don't know whether to be intrigued or insulted by Honda's new "She's" car – a variation on the brand's Fit model, with a windshield that prevents wrinkles by blocking 99% UV rays, heated seats and a "Plasmacluster" air conditioning system that pumps specially treated air into the ride to improve the driver's skin quality.
Which are all good things, except that Honda does not seem to have caught on to the concept of men and women having the same reaction to the sun and (wonder of wonders!) the ability to use something like a car in the same way! So, a car specifically made "for women"… does it sound patronising only to me? Also, considering that there are no cars "for men", the implication is that everything to this point has been made for men. Until now. Please feel free to take a sigh of relief at your convenience.
Sarcasm aside, super-UV-blocking windshields would be a terrific way to prevent skin cancer – for both women and men. So, why make a distinction? And even if you were to have a women-focussed marketing strategy, why not sell this feature as a health benefit? As Glamour put it most succinctly, "Do the folks at Honda think women are so dumb or frivolous that the best way to market automobiles to them is as a super-pricey form of skin care?" [And at $17,500 it's quite a price – they could have at least made it cheaper considering that we little women usually earn less than men and all that!]
As for the flagship colour, it can't be anything but baby pink… right? [*insert cheers and claps*] After all, isn't that the favourite colour of anyone with a uterus? So, the car has a pink exterior and pink interior details, including pink on the steering wheel, dashboard and floor mats. Oh! And in case it still wasn't clear enough that this car is aimed at women, the apostrophe on "She's" has been replaced with a little pink heart. [*Heaves*]
You are a freak of nature and don't like pink? No worries! A Honda executive assured the Yomuri Shinbun newspaper that for ladies who don't love pink, there were several other shades – like 'Eyeliner Brown' – to "match their eyeshadow". Seriously?
One would think that Honda might have taken a look at the past and saved itself the bother. After all, there is already a long and embarrassing history of automakers attempting to lure women with ladies-only models. In the early 1900s, they tried marketing electric cars to wives with the promise that a lack of hand-crank starting would avoid broken shoulders and/or death. Then in 1955 and 1956, Chrysler came up with the La Comtesse and La Femme respectively – cars fully packed with female accessories including a matching rain hat, purse and a lipstick storage space. The models went out of manufacture almost instantly in 1957.
But that wan't the end of it: At the turn of this century, Ford showcased a concept Windstar minivan featuring a compact washer/dryer, microwave and vacuum in the rear hatch. Because, after all, why would "mommy" ever want to be parted from her appliances?
Honda's She's is currently exclusive to the Japanese market. So, if you want one, you will have to tug your hubby's sleeves till he grants you permission to make the long and scary journey to Japan and then gives you a little money to indulge your sweet heart's desire.
Sometimes, all I can do is shake my head.
PS: Patronising BS aside, would you be more interested in a car if it came with health features? What would you really want?

This type of toy can be chosen in a couple of attractive colours. You can decide to pick the Lullaby toy in pink that would be just the thing for a little girl or you can choose the blue one for a little boy. A child will just need to squeeze the body part of the toy and a soft lullaby melody will begin to play softly. Simultaneously the little face will light up. This is a fantastic technique to help your child off to slumber.

The Lord is NOT one to take this sort of pounding laying down!
U.S. and NATO officials confirmed that two American Navy personnel went missing Friday in the eastern province of Logar, after an armored sports utility vehicle was seen driving into a Taliban-held area.
It's bad enough that our boys in uniform are over in Afghanistan fighting B. Hussein Obama's war, but Jesus seems to be able to take only SO MUCH when sissies start trying to OPENLY mince around the battlefield. As He did on that FATEFUL DAY in 2001, the Lord has shown that He WILL lift His protection from our nation when we turn our backs on Him!
To the Homosexual Agenda, to the ACLU, to the feminists, Planned Parenthood, Justin Bieber, Al Franken and the Clintons, to the teachers unions, atheists, hippies, Hollywood, Rachel Maddow, Keith Olbermann, MSNBC, the NBA, NAACP and ACORN, MoveOn.org, Michael Moore, to So You Think You Can Dance?, Elena Kagan and witches, to Greenpeace, PETA, the World Wildlife Fund, People For The American Way, High School Musical, Richard Dawkins, Paul Zachary Meyers, Darwinism, and Phil Plait, to Ben & Jerry, to Heinz Ketchup, the DemoncRAT Party, Seth McFarlane, Penn & Teller, and every other LIBERAL who hates America - I point my finger and say YOU HELPED THIS HAPPEN!
Let's take this warning to heart! Let's turn this country BACK TO JESUS before it's too late and He SMITES us once and for all!
Please join me in prayer, America. Before it's too late and we turn into a backwater Third World failed state like RWANDA, SOMALIA, SOVIET CANUCKISTAN, or BELARUS!
Thank you, and GOD BLESS.

Citizens to Document Their Voting Experiences From Polling Places
San Bruno, CA and Arlington, VA October 15, 2008 -- YouTube, the leading online video community that allows people to discover, watch and share originally created videos, has partnered with PBS to empower American voters to upload their Election Day voting experiences to YouTube (http://youtube.com/videoyourvote).
The initiative educates voters on the entire process and a wide array of issues associated with voting in America, while enabling the world to watch pivotal moments in this historic election as they unfold. In the first presidential election since YouTube's inception, this program aims to gather massive amounts of polling place video, with the Channel serving as an online library for Election Day footage.
"Voters have documented each step of the 2008 election on YouTube and this phenomenon will culminate on November 4 as people head to the polls to determine the forty-fourth President of the United States," said Steve Grove, YouTube's head of news and politics. "This partnership with PBS, an organization known for offering rich perspectives, will help voters examine all aspects of voting from the registration processes, to reforms, to technology and election administration, to the actual casting of ballots."
Starting today, registered United States voters can share their voting experiences via the Video Your Vote YouTube Channel. On November 4, the Channel will serve as the premier online destination for up-to-the-minute coverage from voters contributing videos straight from thousands of precincts across the country.
Some of the best videos will be showcased on PBS television, as part of The NewsHour with Jim Lehrer's Election Day broadcast. They may also be used throughout PBS' election coverage, both on-air and online. YouTube users are asked to tag all of their Election Day videos #videoyourvote. Events, for instance, that hinder the voting process should be tagged, "pollproblem." These videos, as well as those documenting the spectrum of the entire voting process, will be easy to find on the Channel and analysts from PBS' political team will then review some of them and offer commentary on how the election played out.
"This program takes the best of PBS and The NewsHour, our editorial reputation and broadcast reach, and combines it with YouTube's tremendous online video community to share polling place footage from Maine to California and everywhere in between for all to see," said Judy Woodruff, senior correspondent and political editor of The NewsHour With Jim Lehrer. "This is the YouTube election, and we're thrilled to be a part of it."
In addition, YouTube and PBS also will distribute 1,000 Flip Video(tm) camcorders through Pure Digital Technologies, Inc.'s Flip Video Spotlight Program so that participating non-partisan nonprofit groups and local PBS stations across the country can also capture polling place activity.
"By providing a way for local-level voters to 'video your vote' YouTube, PBS and our local stations will empower thousands of people across the country to take an active - and personal - role in the democratic process," said Jason Seiken, senior vice president, PBS Interactive.
As Election Day excitement rises to a boil, people are encouraged to visit the Video Your Vote channel to view exclusive videos from: BlackBoxVoting.org, Center for Governmental Studies, Citizen Media Law Project, Common Cause, HowCast, Lawyers Committee for Civil Rights Under Law, People for the American Way Foundation, Rock the Vote Why Tuesday? and more.
Some states and counties have regulations against the use of recording equipment at polling places on Election Day. YouTube and PBS remind voters to please check with individual polling places on rules and regulations - more information can be found on the Video Your Vote channel.

Rockland County Student Defense Lawyer
Everyday life can be challenging for students. Most have to balance coursework with social obligations and other activities. Being accused of a crime can add another level of unwelcome stress.
If you are a student facing criminal charges or think you might be charged with a crime, call a Rockland County student defense lawyer. A skilled defense attorney could sit down with you and review your situation to make sure they offer you the best advice possible for your unique situation.
Drug-Related Charges for Rockland County Students
Students at the many schools in Rockland County including Nyack College, St. Thomas Aquinas College, and Long Island University may face charges for many different kinds of alleged crimes. Many involve driving under the influence (DUI), marijuana possession, or other drug-related crimes. Additionally, students may be accused of assault, disturbing the peace, or other similar crimes. Regardless of the specific charge, any student with a legal issue should contact a Rockland County student defense lawyer for a full review of their case.
Marijuana Offenses
Some of the most common charges students face are related to drugs, especially marijuana. Although some states have begun legalizing recreational marijuana, New York has not done so. New York Penal Law §220.00 classifies marijuana as a controlled substance, which means that the state has the power to punish those possessing marijuana.
Basic possession of marijuana results in a fine of $100 or less for a first offense, according to New York Penal Law §221.05. However, subsequent possession convictions result in harsher punishments. Possession of larger amounts of marijuana is also a more serious offense.
Additionally, New York punishes the possession of other illegal drugs more strictly than marijuana. Under New York Penal Law §220.03, such possession is, at minimum, a misdemeanor.
However, students could face felony charges depending on the type or amount of the illegal drug they allegedly possessed. A Rockland County student defense lawyer could provide an overview of applicable drug laws and help students understand and defend their rights.
Actions Universities Can Take
Students may also face potential civil or administrative penalties as the result of a criminal case. Universities have the power to conduct their own investigations and carry out their own punishments. Schools are also not bound by the law, meaning they can punish students without the evidence required in a court of law. Disciplinary actions such as suspension or expulsion have the potential to harm a student's reputation and career even if they are innocent.
Whenever students are facing disciplinary action or even an investigation at their college or university, they have a right to representation. A Rockland County student defense lawyer can help guide students throughout the process to help them protect their rights and their futures.
Reach Out to a Rockland County Student Defense Attorney
Students accused of a crime understandably may not know how to respond. Many likely have had no previous experience with the legal system. However, in order to best protect their rights, any student charged with a crime should respond quickly and be sure that they have a qualified attorney.
In New York, a Rockland County student defense lawyer is available to help students with all aspects of their case. An attorney could meet with you and review your case to see how they could help. A Rockland County student defense attorney is committed to defending your rights and making sure you receive the best possible outcome given the circumstances. Call today.

Move Over, Picasso: Smartphone Photos Become Works of Art
Seems like only yesterday we were talking about the shift from analog photos to digital images that consumers can obsessively share online — and get immediate gratification from in the form of "likes."
Now, photo printouts are all the rage again. But not just any photo printouts: These are physical Instagrams.
A crop of new services are riding the coattails of the popular iPhone photo-filter app by tapping into its open API (application programming interface) to allow users to order copies of their photos in various analog forms.
One of the more notable services comes from CanvasPop, a sister company of Ottawa- and Las Vegas-based DNA 11, which made its mark by making art out of DNA strands and fingerprints. CanvasPop is now offering medium-sized stretched-canvas prints for $29.95, and feature-sized, 20-inch square prints for $59.95.
For an idea of what a CanvasPop canvas looks like, see the image above of a 12-inch square canvas of a picture I took in Hong Kong using Instagram (so … meta).
Through a series of processes, CanvasPop is able to take low-resolution images from Instagram — generally 612 by 612 pixels — and create great-looking canvases that aren't too pixelated but also aren't blurry. (Based on this canvas, I'd say these printouts are pretty nifty.)
In terms of cost, $30 for a 12-inch square canvas seems like a good deal, but prices may change: That's currently listed as an introductory price, and CanvasPop co-founder Adrian Salamunovic says the company will be establishing new price points in the new year, based on customer demand. He says that since the product's launch two weeks ago, the company has shipped "thousands" of prints.
While CanvasPop will print out any smartphone photo for you, Instagram is the only API it has officially tapped into for one-step purchasing; CanvasPop cites the large user base of Instagram as the main draw. Photos from other apps, such as Hipstamatic or Picplz, will require that users upload the photo file to their computers and submit it to CanvasPop as they might other digital photos.
If Polaroid-style pics are your thing, a company called Printstagram offers a packet of 48 mini-printouts of your Instagrams for $12, as well as stickers and a 20-inch by 40-inch compilation poster of your favorite Instagrams. There's also a tiny Tinybook option — ideal for low-resolution images, but I'm not sure what the use case is for a book that looks like it might go in a dollhouse.
StickyGram is also getting in on the game: For $14.99, Instagrammers can get a pack of nine magnets for the fridge or file cabinet. The magnets are 50mm by 50mm — approximately the same size as an actual Instagram on your phone — and the company offers free shipping.
Instagram, for those who aren't part of the iPhone-photo-sharing crowd, is a Bay Area-based start-up that has grown to more than 10 million users since its launch in September of 2010. The iOS-only app allows for quick photo-taking and sharing, with a variety of filters available to apply to the images.

Report: Knicks not ruling out trading Kristaps Porzingis
Knicks president Phil Jackson is not ruling out the possibility of trading Kristaps Porzingis, according to The Vertical's Adrian Wojnarowski.
A "frenzy of interest" in Porzingis has emerged, according to Wojnarowski, as other teams become aware of Jackson's stance on the matter.
ESPN's Ian Begley reports the Knicks' brass has not been in touch with Porzingis at all since he skipped his exit interview at the end of the season. The decision was seen as a sign of frustration given the team's mixed fortunes. Porzingis's brother Janis, who also works as one of his agents, told Begley that Kristaps loves New York and hopes to stay.
"Despite how the Knicks are treating their players, Kris wants to stay in New York," Janis Porzingis told ESPN. "He loves the city and he loves the fans and he wants to win with this team. If he's going to be traded, he's going to play out his contact and decide his future on his own."
Both Chris Mannix of The Vertical and Zach Lowe of ESPN report that teams are skeptical whether the Knicks actually intend to trade Porzingis, given how high their asking prices have been in deals.
Porzingis, 21, is one of the more promising young big men in the league and is seen as the Knicks' most valuable long-term asset. This news comes two days before the NBA draft, in which the Knicks hold the eighth pick in the first round. Wojnarowski reports the Knicks met with Arizona forward Lauri Markkanen on Monday, who could be in play at No. 8 if the Knicks deal Porzingis.
• Mock draft: Predicting all 60 picks
New York could conceivably garner a major return for Porzingis, who averaged 18.1 points and 7.2 rebounds per game last season, his second in the NBA. The Knicks have received several calls about Porzingis already, according to Begley.
The status of the team and Carmelo Anthony is also unclear given Jackson's public comments in the past, but Anthony has a full no-trade clause.

The Fantastic Beasts Foundation launched campaign to help South African rhinos
Today, we are launching "Erumpent Rescue" with our partners Saving the Survivors and Action for Rhinos! We hope to get Harry Potter fans just like you aware of the problems of Rhino poaching in Africa and involve you in helping to save endangered rhinos.
First, fans will be able to send a Howler to South Africa's Environment Minister, Edna Molewa. You can sign a Howler asking her to ban the sale of rhino horns and bring rhino poachers to justice, and at the same time be entered into drawings to win some fabulous Harry Potter prizes which were donated by MinaLima, graphic designers for all of the Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts films, and Devon Murray, who played Seamus Finnigan in the Potter films!
You can also purchase a campaign t-shirt to raise money for our partner organization, Saving the Survivors. Featuring the "Erumpent Rescue" logo, all of the proceeds will be going to Saving the Survivors to enable them to continue their life-saving work for poaching victims in South Africa. And, when you wear the shirt, you will increase visibility of the campaign and help others learn about the dire situation these rhinos face.
Visit ErumpentRescue.com to take action and help save these truly fantastic beasts!

"May the world attain Ultimate Peace and may some attain Liberation"Read More
Located 20 kms from Ahmedabad, Simandhar City is a place for spiritual progress. It is known as "A Clean City, Green City & Pure City!!!"Read More
A unique non-sectarian Temple inspired by Akram Vignani, Param Pujya Dada Bhagwan.
One has to learn pratikraman, whereas atikraman is learnt automatically. If one wants to hurt someone one does not need to go to school to learn that, one has already learnt that by observing others. Now if you do atikraman then you must do pratikraman. You don't have to do pratikraman in routine vyavahar worldly interaction. It is just that if you make fun of anyone or hurt anyone that is atikraman, so you have to do pratikraman for that.
Questioner: How does one do pratikraman?
Dadashri: If you have attained the Self, You will become aware of the Self within the other person. It is precisely the Self within that person that you must address. Otherwise, you can invoke the Lord and do the pratikraman by saying, "O Lord! I repent for my mistake. I ask for your forgiveness and resolve never to repeat it." That is all. If you make a mistake, you would know immediately, wouldn't you?
Questioner: Yes.
Dadashri: If you did pratikraman for that, it washes away.
Questioner: Does the sin really get washed away?
Dadashri: Yes, yes of course it will! After pratikraman, the fault will not remain. Even a massive karma will appear as though it were a burnt rope in the form of ashes, which crumble and disperse at the slightest touch.
Questioner: And how should I repent? Should it be done openly so that it is visible to others or from within, in my mind only?
Dadashri: In the mind only! You should remember Dadaji, apologize for your mistake, and resolve never to do it again. In doing this the pain will be erased and the mistake destroyed. If you fail to do this, your mistakes will accumulate. I have given you this weapon; this pratikraman is a big weapon. This is the one greatest weapon to fracture the bondages of entire world. The world is perpetuated due to atikraman and it dissolves through pratikraman. This is the thing. Atikraman means the fault is committed. You realized that, so you should 'shoot-at-sight' this fault. Shoot the fault the moment you see it.
Akram Vignan is the only path of its kind that allows you to see your own faults and shoot them as they appear, destroying them completely.
Dadavani Magzine August 2007 (Page #3 and #4)

This is "Hetty The Hippo" a knitted toy I made for a new baby based on the Amanda Berry pattern Higgins The Hippo. The only difference from the original pattern is that I added a bow and embroidered the eyes rather than using buttons as it was a gift for a baby girl. The bow was made from a long thin strip of knitting sewn into a loop with a smaller strip sewn around the middle.
New Baby Soft Toy Robot and Robot Card
I made this little soft toy robot for a friend's first baby and I was inspired to make the card to match. I've added some images showing how to make the toy robot below.
The robot was simply made of 6 sewn cubes. For each cube stitch together 6 squares on the reverse leaving one side open for stuffing. Turn right side out and stuff. Close the open seam with a hidden stitch.
Make 4 small cubes for the arms and legs one large cube for the head and a medium cube (slightly smaller than the head) for the body. Attach the arms legs and head to the body. First securely sew the body to the head. For the arms attached them along one edge so they can move but for the legs attach along the 4 top edges so they remained in place.
Finally embroider on a cute face and some buttons.

Simple Knitted Toy Dog: Pupster Pattern
I knitted this little puppy from a pattern I found on Pinterest. It's called Pupster, was created by FuzzyMitten.com and can be purchased on Ravelry.
It was a really quick and simple pattern to follow. I decided to embroider the eyes open as I made it as a gift for a new baby. The original pattern has instructions for a jumper but I decided instead to give him a green scarf to keep him warm which was simply a length knitted in sticking stitch. I also decided to make him all one colour apart from his snout. The original pattern has instructions to have different colour patches on his hands, feet and tail also. Due to the simplicity of the pattern it was easy to make this change so not only is it a good pattern to follow but also a versatile one.
Knitted Elephant Toy for a New baby.
There's been lots of new arrivals in the last year so I've been having fun making toys and new baby cards.
This was my make of the Bloomsbury Elephant knitting pattern by Amanda Berry made for my super cute nephew.
The pattern is available to buy on Ravelry
The pattern designer has lots of other wonderful looking patterns on her page: Amanda Berry
It was very simple to follow and I'm really happy with the result. I also decided to knit a little scarf to keep him warm.

Pin cushion
This is a little pin cushion I made for my sister's birthday in 2011. It was made from a scrap of flower print fabric I had. It was a small square of fabric which I sewed around the edges to gather it together at the bottom then filled tightly with stuffing. I then added a patch at the bottom and over stitched for a neat finish. I then added some little embellishments that can be seen in the picture.
I always like to keep scraps of fabric rather than throwing them away as they are great for little things like this or for small embellishments. They could also be used for fabric buttons. I also keep ribbons, buttons and other little charms etc.

"FCS have worked on two separate projects under my management for the full period September 2016 to March 2017. FCS provided expertise in groundwork's; excavations, concrete works, drainage installation and modifications, pits and deep excavations. FCS provided an excellent cost effective service. The management team were quick to respond when asked to provide proposals and documentation in a fast moving environment relating to emergent work. Employees were security vetted (an essential requirement for nuclear installations) competent, hardworking and provided a high degree of flexibility in their working arrangements. Reassuringly, FCS make no compromises over safe working practices.
Of particular note were the recognition the workforce received at the highest levels in the company for their safe excavation of live services and the provision of a deep excavation team at short notice, including a Temporary Works Coordinator. I would have no hesitation in recommending FCS for similar works."
Force Contracting Service Limited have been working for WPD for a number of years initial as a sub-contractor and in the last year and going forward direct. Currently for WPD, Force Contracting have been utilised for small to medium building and civil works consisting of groundwork's services, including excavations, concrete works; and the installation of ducting, draw pits and drainage.
Force Contracting Service Limited have displayed a great attitude toward the client vision and expectancy for the delivery of the programme that we have in place and quality of workmanship. They have a number of staff following experience have worked within a live electricity compound up to 132kV. I find they carry their responsibility very highly, as it is clearly showcased throughout the team.
I would recommend Force Contracting Service Limited for any works within the electricity distribution network sector. Feel free to contact me directly if you wish to discuss.
Force Contracting Services have successfully completed a number of projects on behalf of Morrison Utility Services and its trading name, Morrison Utility Connections.
Force Contracting Services have proven to be a reliable, competent, quality and safety driven contractor and delivered all of their works with accident or incident to very high standards. I would not hesitate to contract their services again.

CryCraft: Mod Minecraft Into Crysis
Would you call Minecraft in the Crysis engine Mynecraft or Minecryft? I prefer the second, because the first could be a typo, whereas the only legitimate reason for coming up with the second is if there's a Crysis mod that adds Minecraft to it. Wait, there is! And it's called… what, 'Craftable'? Seriously?
How does Minecraft work in the Cryengine? There are limitations: there's no randomly generated structures, no weapon crafting, no mining. Just a lot of blocks and space for you to build. It's closer to a proof of concept than an actual mod, but I like that it exists: it mocks the original engine's ability to make realistic vistas by dropping some classic 8-bit style visuals on the terrain. Depth of field and motion blur are all well and good, but look: we have coloured blocks!
You have a flat map, and the ability to pick and place blocks, just like in Mojang's adventure game. There are 30 different blocks to place, although they're only eye-candy: the TNT does not bring the bangs. Q brings up the selection menu, and you sort of punch the blocks into existence. Crysis always did good punching. From there it's up to you to build what you want. Just like Minecraft's Creative mode, you have unlimited blocks to make your masterpiece. Like I did. Observe!
Wait… damnit! Oh well, a video is a better way to see the mod in action.
