Context. After the termination shock (TS) crossing, the Voyager 2 spacecraft has been observing strong variations of the magnetic field and solar wind parameters in the heliosheath. Anomalous cosmic rays, electrons, and galactic cosmic rays present strong intensity fluctuations. Several works suggested that the fluctuations might be attributed to spatial variations within the heliosheath. Additionally, the variability of the solar wind in this region is caused by different temporal events that occur near the Sun and propagate to the outer heliosphere.
Aims. To understand the spatial and temporal effects in the heliosheath, it is important to study these effects separately. In this work we explore the role of shocks as one type of temporal effects in the dynamics of the heliosheath. Although currently plasma in the heliosheath is dominated by solar minima conditions, with increasing solar cycle shocks associated with transients will play an important role.
Methods. We used a 3D MHD multi-fluid model of the interaction between the solar wind and the local interstellar medium to study the propagation of a pair of forward-reverse shocks in the supersonic solar wind, interaction with the TS, and propagation to the heliosheath.
Results. We found that in the supersonic solar wind the interaction region between the shocks expands, the shocks weaken and decelerate. The fluctuation amplitudes of the plasma parameters vary with heliocentric distance. The interaction of the pair of shocks with the TS creates a variety of new waves and discontinuities in the heliosheath, which produce a highly variable solar wind flow. The collision of the forward shock with the heliopause causes a reflection of fast magnetosonic waves inside the heliosheath.
Key words: magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) / shock waves / waves / Sun: heliosphere / solar wind / Sun: activity

You don't have to need the benefit to qualify: in 2009, 2,362 American millionaires collected unemployment. Nearly one million Americans reporting at least a six-figure income ($100,000+) also got jobless benefits. Such recipients accounted for 8.4 percent of all unemployment compensation filers in 2009. On the other hand, unemployment benefit recipients who earned less than $100,000 totaled about 10.3 million (10,290,362) Americans in 2009.

Have you ever been able to sit down with a faculty member with a great reputation and asked them questions about their career? I was able to do this because of a "Faculty Profile" assignment in my Scholarly Communications in the Digital Age course which is "an online course for graduate students interested in the ways technology influences research, writing, publication, and academic career development."
I chose to interview Dr. Doug Hartman and do a write up about it. I've decided to do a 9 part blog series in the next 9 weeks. I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed interviewing and getting to know Dr. Hartman. Part 1 is called "Ripping Bibles" and it gives a glimpse into how Doug's childhood experience influenced the trajectory in the decades of research and teaching that followed.
I want to thank Dr. Doug Hartman for the kind permission to share the contents of this interview.

Carp fishing holidays in France on this lake 4 acres lake is a great social lake for up to 4 anglers max.
Carp fishing holidays in FranceThe central positioning of the swims allows anglers to be near to each other but also gives them plenty of their own water to fish in. Lake 4 has a maximum depth of 15 feet with a few plateaux and drop offs to fish to and deep margins of over 6 feet. The lake is set in mature tranquil surroundings but is also close enough to be easy to nip to the shops. Each of the two swims are suitable for two anglers with plenty of room behind the swims. There is no weed in this lake to hinder your fishing.
Lake 4 Fish
The original stock of the lake was completely unknown but we have stocked over the winter of 2016 with over a ton of quality fish to 50lb for you to do combat with. Previously the lake was used for duck shooting and has never been used as a carp fishery. Catches over the past two seasons has produced some stunning catches with fish being banked and now the lake holds mirrors to over 53lb, commons to over 55lb and grass carp to over 40lb.
Lake 4 Facilities
Your carp fishing holidays in France is made easier at Bill's Lake 4 where you will find a central insulated anglers cabin for cooking and meeting and an on site English style toilet. The super clean shower facilities are available a very short walk away on Lake 5. These are available 24/7. In the cabin there is a solar charging unit for your phones. Bait boat batteries can be charged by the unit on Lake 5.
Lake 4 Arrivals
This lake is booked from a Friday to Friday offering clients a full weekend at home at the end of their week to sort their gear out before work the next week. It is very important that you arrive on time as other lakes check in the same day.

Notes: This is just a cute little one-shot fic idea, written both to start off the short-fic collective and to shamelessly just to make for some cute Anakin and Obi-Wan bonding. Besides, I'd never written little!Anakin before, so that was fun. This is set a few years after TPM. Hope you enjoy!
Of Jedi and banisters
by: Amrita Glittersong
Twelve-year-old Jedi Padawan Anakin Skywalker was bored.
Usually, he could find something to do with his time, but today, he was bored. He'd run out of droid parts, and Obi-Wan had forbidden him from going looking for new ones until later. Obi-Wan had also forbidden him from going to the garbage pit races on the lower levels of Coruscant, and from launching marbles at the Council members with the Force, and various other things. Sometimes, Anakin thought, Obi-Wan was no fun at all.
So now, he was just wandering the Temple aimlessly while Obi-Wan studied something in the Archives, trying to find a way to amuse himself until his master was done. He was failing.
But then, something caught his eye. The long, straight railing that guarded one of the grand staircases of the Temple was calling to him, screaming, 'Anakin! I'm FUN!' He was immediately drawn back towards it.
He'd heard lots of stories about how fun it was to slide down the banisters from initiates and some other padawans, but he'd never had an opportunity to try it himself. Looking back and forth, Anakin assured himself he was indeed alone, and would be unseen in his act of harmless mischief as he stepped over to the start of the rail. Being Jedi, or Jedi-in-training at least, the 'proper' way to slide down a banister was on your feet, as he'd heard. Anakin looked at the rail, the distance to the floor, his feet, than back to the rail and shrugged. How hard could it be?
In one graceful motion, he leapt up to alight gently on the railing... And go nowhere but directly off the side, back onto the stairs. He landed easily, his reflexes fast enough to keep him from hurting himself, and realized his mistake. Jedi boots were made specifically not to slide on things, and he's forgotten to take them off.
Stepping back into place, Anakin removed his boots this time and tried again. This time, he slid quite nicely; too nicely, in fact. Anakin realized belatedly this was not as simple as it looked, and it took all his concentration not to lose his balance and fall to a much harder landing than before. As it was, he was concentrating so hard on his balance than he didn't think about the decorative globe that was positioned on the end of the railing and, reaching the end of his slide, slammed his shins right into it and went flying in a wild tumble through the air.
'Great.' He thought idly as he tumbled. 'Podracing, garbage pit competitions, starfighter piloting... And I'm going to be killed by breaking my neck while sliding down a banister.'
However, that was not to be the case as instead of hitting the floor, he slammed into something considerably softer and his wild flight stopped as he and whatever he'd hit fell to the ground.
"Anakin Skywalker! What are you doing!?"
Anakin looked up in surprise at the familiar voice to see that it had been Obi-Wan who'd caught him and who was now giving him a look that was a cross between surprise, anger, and concern. "Oh, hi, master."
Obi-Wan raised an eyebrow, getting back to his feet and pulling Anakin up as well. "Hello, Anakin. I see you ignored my orders not to get yourself into trouble."
"Yeah." Anakin responded, only looking slightly sheepish. "Sorry about that. But thanks for catching me."
"You're welcome." Obi-Wan responded after a moment, sighing. "Anakin, that was dangerous. You could have been hurt."
"Yeah, I get that now. Who would have thought that sliding down a banister would be more difficult than the other things I've done?" Anakin lamented, giving the railing a dirty look as he spoke, as if it was it's fault. "The other padawans and the initiates made it sound easy..."
"It is, if you're know what you're doing." Obi-Wan said after a moment, then he looked around, as if to make sure no one was listening, before continuing. "I suppose you're going to need someone to teach you how to do it correctly..."
Anakin looked at him in wonder, not sure if his master had meant what he thought he'd meant, and Obi-Wan gave him a faint smile. "So you don't hurt yourself, of course." The Knight added, almost as an afterthought. "Considering I have a feeling you won't listen if I simply tell you not to do it again."
"You know me, master." Anakin responded, smiling as he lead the way back up the stairs. Who would have thought Obi-Wan would know how to slide down a rail, let alone encourage it?
"Yes, unfortunately." Obi-Wan responded, though the light tone made the words teasing rather than harsh. "Alright, Anakin. This is relatively simple. The Force will help you balance; trust in it, and pay more attention to when to jump than to attempting to balance. When you reach about a half-metre from the end, plant your feet and jump. You'll have enough room to clear the globe and land on the ground." Obi-Wan explained, removing his boots. "Watch."
Anakin nodded, stepping back to make room for Obi-Wan to jump onto the railing. He did so, sliding gracefully down the rail as if he'd done it a hundred times before, and crouched down slightly as he neared the end so he could gain more height on the jump. A perfect double-flip later, Obi-Wan landed, only to come face to face with Mace Windu, who had seemingly come out of no where.
"Um... Hello, Master Windu."
Anakin tried not to giggle at the nearly identical response Obi-Wan had for nearly running into Mace as Anakin had for running into Obi-Wan.
Mace just looked at Obi-Wan, then up to Anakin at the top of the stairs, then back at Obi-Wan, and then just shook his head and sighed. "I don't know what to do with you two sometimes." A moment later, he shrugged, and began striding away. "Don't hurt yourselves."
"Smooth, master." Anakin commented once Mace was out of earshot. "Great demonstration; it really was pretty wizard. Just one thing. Do I have to land in front of Master Windu, or is that optional?"
Obi-Wan just gave him a vaguely amused look, and Anakin laughed.

Noble Group confirmed on Tuesday that its lenders had agreed to push back a repayment deadline by four months and said it continued to be in talks with potential investors about the sale of an interest in the company or parts of its business.
The Singapore-listed firm also said it had deferred payment of the coupon on its $400 million perpetual securities due on June 26.
The company had persuaded banks to extend the $2 billion credit line, due to be rolled over by the end of this week, but it was asked to find a strategic investor, a person familiar with the matter told Reuters on Friday.
The company on Tuesday said it was also continuing talks with its bankers in relation to its revolving credit facility due May 2018. Its major bankers, based in Europe, the United States and Asia, have hired legal and financial advisers to enhance these discussions, Noble said in its statement.
"Whilst no assurance can be given as to the outcome of these discussions, the group believes that these are constructive and are being conducted in good faith by all parties," it added.
Noble said it expected to complete its previously announced strategic review once the discussions with the banks and with potential investors became clearer.
"The results of this review are likely to include an asset realisation programme to maintain liquidity and a further reduction in overhead expenses," it said.
Noble has struggled since Iceberg Research questioned its accounts in early 2015 amid a brutal downturn in commodity markets. The company, which has stood by its accounts, has been trying to meet its debt obligations and has been forced to cut the scale of its operations.
Its shares closed up about 46 percent on Monday. On Tuesday early trade, Noble shares were down 4 percent.

Utah teens driving on their learner's permits with a licensed adult supervising them do not need to have their own insurance policies. Once they start driving on their own, however, teens need insurance, so you will want to explore options to keep these costs reasonable.
Saving Money on Car Insurance
Because the risk of a crash is significantly higher for young drivers, particularly during the first year of driving, your teen's insurance rate likely will be higher than your own. Here are a few strategies to help you reduce insurance costs both now and once you add your teen driver.
- Raise deductibles to lower premiums. Ask your auto insurance representative how much you could save by increasing your deductible. If you file a claim after raising your deductible, you'll pay a larger share of the costs.
- Investigate discounts. Many insurers offer discounts for students with a "B" or higher grade average and for teens who complete driver education or defensive driving courses.
- Share vehicles. How you classify your new driver—as the main or an occasional driver of one vehicle, for example, will affect auto insurance premiums, so consider sharing vehicles.
- Just say "no" to sports cars and SUVs. TThe kind of car your teen drives can impact safety. Many experts agree that mid-sized sedans are the best choice for teens. Small cars don't offer as much protection in crashes, sporty cars may encourage speeding or recklessness, and SUVs and pick-up trucks are more difficult to maneuver and more likely to have roll-over crashes.
- Practice, practice, practice. Now is the time to drive a lot with your teen under varied conditions so there will be fewer surprises (and potential crashes) when you're no longer in the vehicle.
- Be involved. Research shows that teens with more involved parents get fewer tickets and engage in less risky driving. Avoiding tickets and crashes will help keep your insurance rates down. A parent-teen driving agreement can help you set rules and stay involved.
Car Insurance Requirements in Utah
All Utah drivers are required to carry bodily injury and property damage liability insurance to help pay for damages they cause in an auto accident. The minimum amounts drivers are required to carry are: $25,000 per person and $65,000 for two or more persons for bodily injury liability and $15,000 for property damage liability. Typically this is shown on your policy as 25/65/15. Utah's no-fault law also requires you buy a minimum of $3,000 in Personal Injury Protection (PIP) coverage. PIP is a broad term for the coverage that will pay for your medical expenses in case of a crash.

Language Development in Children with Down Syndrome
Down syndrome, or trisomy 21, is a genetic disorder. To understand how down syndrome happens, it is important to understand a little about chromosomes. Chromosomes are structures within each cell that are made up of genes; genes provide the information that determine everything about a person. A baby receives half of their chromosomes from their mother and half from their father. In a typical child, there are 23 pairs of chromosomes, for a total of 46. In a child born with down syndrome, there is an additional, or third, copy of their 21st chromosome, leaving them with 47 total chromosomes instead of 46. This additional copy leads to complications in the development of the brain and physical features of the child. Because 1 in 700 children in the United States are born with down syndrome, it is the most common genetic disorder; it is also the main genetic cause of intellectual disability, with language being the most impaired area of function in down syndrome (Martin, Klusek, Estigarribia, & Roberts, 2009, p. 2) Although each child with down syndrome is unique and has unique deficits, language, specifically expressive language, is consistently the most impaired area of function in children with down syndrome (Martin et. al., p. 1). The language of children with down syndrome is particularly weak in the areas of vocabulary, pragmatics, literacy, and syntax, but it is interesting to see how they communicate by using gestures and augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) in the form of sign language.
In the area of vocabulary, there is conflicting data about whether or not children with down syndrome comprehend vocabulary at the same time as typically developing children, but there is uniform data stating that children with down syndrome are delayed in their expressive vocabulary. The first spoken word in children with down syndrome is delayed when compared to a typically developing child, and the continuing growth of their lexicon is slower than a typically developing child. In the area of pragmatics, children with down syndrome do produce the same variety of communicative functions, with the exception of requests, that typically developing children do. For example, children with down syndrome do produce comments, answers, and protests. Children with down syndrome can stay on topic for the same amount of exchanges that a typically developing child can, but they do not initiate or expand topics as well as a child that is typically developing. In the area of literacy, there is not much consistency among children with down syndrome. While some children with down syndrome master reading, many do not (Martin et. al., p. 1-2, 4-8).
Although children with down syndrome have deficits in a variety of areas of language, their greatest weakness is in the area of syntax. In the area of syntax, children with down syndrome are more impaired than they are with vocabulary, pragmatics, and literacy. In children with down syndrome, syntax skills fall far below that of a typically developing child. Syntax skills in children with down syndrome are slower developing and can even decline in late adolescence. Children with down syndrome are delayed in producing two-word combinations compared to a typically developing child, and they consistently produce less complex utterances than typically developing children. Children with down syndrome show deficits in the area of expressive syntax during narratives, conversation, and repetition tasks. Children with down syndrome frequently omit necessary sentence elements or make morphological errors. The mastery and use of syntax in children with down syndrome continues well into the adolescent years. Children with down syndrome have a reduced mean length of utterance (MLU). They have been described to have telegraphic speech, omitting many words. The most noticed omission is that of verbs. "For example, when asked what one does during free time, and individual with DS might respond 'cookies,' whereas an individual who is TD might say, '(I) bake cookies.'" (Michael, Ratner, & Newman, 2012, p. 1737). In children with down syndrome, main verbs and auxiliary verbs are typically omitted the most. Children with down syndrome do not produce fewer different verbs; they actually produce a greater variety of main verbs than some children who are typically developing. Although children with down syndrome do appear to have a wide variety of verbs in their mental lexicon, they have difficulty accessing them during communication. Research shows that children with down syndrome consistently perform below that of typically developing children when carrying out tasks that involve syntactic processing, specifically the ability to retrieve and comprehend verbs. One study was done that consisted of 9 children with down syndrome and 9 children with and age equivalent receptive vocabulary; the study investigated the ability to retrieve and comprehend verbs in the children with down syndrome compared to the typically developing children. In all situations, individuals with down syndromes were significantly weaker in areas that involved syntax skills (Michael et. al., 2012, p. 1736-1737, 1744).
Even though all children with down syndrome do not have a uniform way of life, they do have the increased use of gestures in common. Since children with down syndrome are diagnosed before birth or shortly after, early intervention is possible. A key factor in the early intervention of down syndrome is the encouragement of gestures and sign language. Research shows that children with down syndrome exhibit more gesture use than that of a typically developing child. Gesture use in children with down syndrome is particularly important in parent-child interaction because it is a channel by which they can translate their gestures into spoken words. The reaction of a parent to the gestures a child makes allows the child to place a word onto the gesture. Expressive language of a child with down syndrome is comprised mostly of gestures for far longer than it is in a typically developing child. Gestures are important for a typically developing child as well, but the use of gestures is usually transitioned into spoken words before 2 years of age. In children with down syndrome, the use of spoken words takes much longer to develop, so they rely on the use of gestures for much longer. It is imperative that a mother of a child with down syndrome respond to the child's use of gestures in order for them to develop language. One study was done to examine the difference between gesture use in children with down syndrome and typically developing children. Understanding gesture use in children between the ages of 2 and 5 is important because typically developing children begin to depend less on gestures than children with down syndrome. The study consisted of 22 children with down syndrome being examined by a therapist as they participated in three activities totaling to 21 minutes with their mothers, and they were compared to typically developing children in the same scenario. The children with down syndrome were examined to use an average of 82.59 gestures during the 21 minutes of activity, and the typically developing children were examined to use an average of 51.18 gesture during the 21 minutes of activity (Lorang, Sterling, ; Schroeder, 2018, p. 1018-1020, 1023-1024). This study further emphasizes the importance of maternal responsiveness to gesture use in children with down syndrome; they very much depend on it to communicate.
Beyond gestures is sign language, which is a vital part of communication in children with down syndrome. In order to teach children with down syndrome how to communicate with sign language, it is important to incorporate the sign intervention into naturalistic language teaching, joint attention, and symbolic play. As mentioned earlier, children with down syndrome exhibit many deficits, but a specific deficit common to most children with down syndrome is the ability to use spoken language in correspondence with their mental age. The intervention of augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) can be very beneficial in helping children with down syndrome communicate. Specifically, the forms of AAC used in children with down syndrome are gestures and sign language. Because children with down syndrome use gestures far longer than typically developing children, having strong gesture use can allow them to combine their use of signs with spoken language to communicate effectively. Research has shown that combining signs with spoken language is more effective in teaching children with down syndrome than just teaching spoken words alone (Wright, Kaiser, Reikowsky, ; Roberts, 2013, p. 1-2).
Not only should children with down syndrome be taught to communicate by combining signs and spoken words, but they should be taught in a naturalistic way; studies show that this is the most effective. Naturalistic teaching is the most effective way to teach sign language because it builds on specific social strengths that children with down syndrome already have. This type of teaching is used by caregivers and teachers, and it is incorporated into play and daily routines. Naturalistic teaching is also effective because it encourages the child to initiate conversation while the adult focuses on responding to the child. Naturalistic teaching encourages the child to engage and participate in routines, which allows the child more opportunities to engage and participate in conversation. Studies have shown that naturalistic language intervention is very effective in teaching children with down syndrome. In one study, four children with down syndrome were evaluated to examine the effectiveness of Milieu Teaching in teaching sign language and spoken words to children with down syndrome. During the study, a therapist implemented the signs to the four children. All four of the children had an increase in their rate of signing and their variety of signs; they each acquired between 10 and 21 new signs and between 3 and 9 new words during the intervention. Also, the four children generalized their new signs and words to a new location, such as their home (Wright, et. al., p. 1-2).
Overall, it is clear to see that children with down syndrome struggle with a variety of areas of language. They have difficulties with vocabulary, pragmatics, literacy, and syntax, with the greatest area of difficulty being syntax. In the area of syntax, children with down syndrome have more difficulty than they do with vocabulary, pragmatics, or literacy. Children with down syndrome rely heavily on gestures and sign language to communicate with the people around them, especially their mothers. All children with down syndrome have the increased use of gestures in common, which is why it is so important for mothers to respond to these gestures; this allows the children to label their gestures with spoken words. When teaching children with down syndrome to use gestures and sign language effectively, it should be done in a naturalistic way. This will encourage the child to engage in conversation during their everyday routine.

The Jeremy Kyle Show has brought to our attention some pretty fucked up stories in the past – the granny who got accused of giving an STI to her daughter's husband and the gay couple who found out that they were actually brothers. You begin to wonder if they are making this shit up and hope for their souls that they are.
This woman, Megan, used the show to speak out about a shockingly personal ordeal – she was tricked into losing her virginity by a girl posing as a guy. In order to help prevent the same from happening to others.
After initially meeting Chris Wilson at an amusement park the pair exchanged numerous text messages and went on a few dates before the relationship turned physical. Megan said that Wilson would insist on having sex with the lights off because of "scars" and pinned her down to ensure that she didn't reveal the truth.
The Mirror said that when the police uncovered the truth Megan felt "embarrassed," "disgusted and humiliated." She said that she was "oblivious" to Wilson's true gender because she had never seen a penis before and was inexperienced and naive.

China Likely Will Agree to Trade Deal to Minimize Decoupling• https://www.nextbigfuture.com, by Brian Wang
Is it geopolitically prudent for a large part of the US industrial supply chain to be inside of China? Why are American companies allowed to transfer critical technologies to China in exchange for short-term market access?
A study titled '2015 Global Innovation 1000' by Strategy& and PwC, looks at key trends of the 1000 global organizations that spend the most on R&D.
American firms are moving their R&D operations to China not just to take advantage of lower costs, but to be in close proximity to their supply chains. About 50 percent of foreign R&D centers in China are now run by American companies, helping China achieve first place in market share for manufacturing R&D.
American policy toward China is seeking to prevent American businesses from speeding the rise of an adversary. Tariffs are one piece of an emerging anti-China strategy. The Trump administration is rolling out new export controls to limit the transfer of sensitive technologies such as AI and quantum computing. They have blacklisted high-tech Chinese firms such as the telecom giant Huawei from doing business in the U.S.
China is working to reduce its dependence on foreign wide-body airplanes, semiconductors and oil and gas.

Since 2003, CCIF has struggled against violence and discrimination toward an increasing number of citizens, because of their true or supposed allegeance to Islam.
During this decate of fighting against islamophobia, our legal department has defended thousands of victims.
A daily work of listening, councelling, supporting, in the name of justice and equality.
But the Collective against islamophobia in France is also made by more than 1000 members and almost 20 regional offices. It is also numerous volunteers that lead everyday this powerful struggle against islamophobia, being both committed and supportive to denounce islamophobia, as our 6 adventurers that are about to climb the Mont Blanc this Monday 26 of August 2013.
Who are the 6 adventurers ?
Nadir Dendoune, a journalist and a writer, is the author of « Opened letter to a immigrant's son », « A slacker on the top of the world », and of « War diary of a pacifist » in which he tells us how he became a human shield in Bagdad in 2003 to express his radical opposition to the war in Iraq.
Later in 2013, while he was doing journalistic reports in Iraq for « Le Monde Diplomatique » and « Le Courrier de l'Atlas », he got arrested and jailed. He was released on February 14 2013, after 23 days of arbitrary detention.
But Nadir is also familiar with montains and extreme conditions since he climbed on Mount Everest on May 2008.
Marwan Muhammad is an author, trained as an engineer in financial mathematics. He worked in finance for 5 years before quitting this world of banks and getting committed in the field of social science and fight against racism.
In 2009, he published his first book « FoulExpress: Small treaty to deconstruct the system », a very critical book about the financial system and the North-South relationship. He founded in 2010 an organisazion, together with a few of his readers, to propose a circle of thinking on education matters, environmental issues, economy and racism. In 2010, he also joined the Collective against islamophobia in France (CCIF) and became its spokesman.
Nadhir Okba is a reporter. His skills should give us beautiful images of this adventure on the Mont Blanc.
Kader Lakhal is a sports instructor as well as a top athlete.
In 2010, he won, in his category, the world champion title of Bresilian Jiu Jitsu in Rio de Janeiro. Since then, he won numerous national and international titles. He also became Ambassador of this sport in France and the organizer of the Jiu Jitsu competition in France: the "Spirit" Challenge.
For this Mont Blanc challenge, he had the responsibility to physically and mentally train the participants.
Nabil Djedjik is a CEO, managing a food distribution company and four restaurants including the Alambra, famous caterer-restaurant that proposes a traditional french, indian and italian cuisine, 100% halal. A true success-story that allows him today to employ 50 people.
Fahim Mehadjri is an activist who regularly participates in various sporting events.
He organises long biking journeys and adventures rally in Annecy (2009/2010/2011). His taste for physical effort led him on many races, including the semi marathon of Djerba (2008), the famous Sand Marathon in 2012 (more than 250 km in the morrocan Sahara desert) known as the most difficult race in the world. He also participated in the SaintéLyon legendary race (70km), by night and in extreme conditions.
What is the aim?
First of all, this climbing is symbolical. It is about carring a noble cause and excelling for it.
It represents both the past 10 years of fighting against islamophobia and CCIF determination to lead numerous struggles to come.
Islamophobia is indeed a montain of hartred and intolerance, made of amalgams and prejudices toward the Muslim community.
By climbing the Mont Blanc, we want to defy difficulties that come with such an adventure and reach the top of the Montain which symbolises freedom. It is on the top of Europe that we will broadcast a message of tolerance to all European citizens who witness every day more and more ideas of hartred and reject from extreme right parties, denying the true values of their Continent.
It will be a communication at the level of severity of this phenomenon, to generate awareness on this circle of violence toward fellow Muslim citizens, from France and Europe.
The preparation
This project took nearly a year of planning and preparation. This time has been essential for our 6 participants who got to know each other. They also learned the rules of team work in order to meet the challenge and reach their objectives.
Like at CCIF, they will apply – at 4807 meters – the same rules of unity, endurance, discipline and sincerity in the action.
This project is entirely financed by our sponsor "Arabi" and by the participants themselves.
From the beginning of the ascension to the deployement of the banner on the top of the Mont Blanc, we will share with you their progression, their impression, but also images and videos via our website and social networks.

Strong start into the funding year: Medienboard supports 9 innovative audio-visual productions with 670,000 euros and awards the highest individual grant for a game to date with 180,000 euros
Press release of 27 February 2019
Berlin/Potsdam – Medienboard has awarded 670,000 euros to 9 projects during its first funding round for innovative audio-visual content in 2019. Among them is the sequel to the successful "Sea of Solitude" with 180,000 euros: "Sands of Sorrow" by Jo-Mei Games received the largest individual sum of the program so far.
Further grants: "Dino-Dino", the new children's app by bildundtonfabrik; text messages by Alexander von Humboldt in the chat format "Hier kommt Alex" ("Here comes Alex"), playing and reforestation with "Arbo" and the first funded Snapchat format "Vice snappt bunt" ("Vice snaps in colour").
Helge Jürgens, Medienboard Berlin-Brandenburg managing director: "The Berlin-Brandenburg gaming industry is becoming increasingly professional. We have noticed this, among other things, due to rising production budgets, but also through the fact that companies are growing and we are now in a situation where we already support the odd sequel to a successful game. The capital region is developing into one of the most innovative development locations for games both nationally and internationally."
With "Sands of Sorrow" (180,000 euros) the Berlin studio Jo-Mei is once again developing a narrative game, which deals with emotional, deeply human themes in a metaphorical world. While its visuals are just as impressive as those of prequel "Sea of Solitude" (which has since paid back its grant to Medienboard and has been distributed by international publisher EA), Jo-Mei is adding a twist this time by trying to awaken the fairy tales genre from its 100-year sleep. "Sands of Sorrow" is a modern fairy tale with a highly contemporary topic which appeals to everyone. The worldwide release is planned for PC and consoles.
"Hitchhiker – Growing Pains" (Mad About Pandas, 60,000 euros) tells the coming-of-age story of a teenager who, during a car journey through a surreal mix of Berlin and Florida Keys, deals with his feelings, desires and fears. With a serious yet simultaneously humorous, dreamy and strong visual style, the game deals with the important issues of everyday life. The implementation is planned for PC and for a PC VR version; later on it is also intended to appear on consoles.
"Madlife" (Flow Fire Games, 100,000 euros) which promises strategic challenges in the style of 1980s post-apocalypse films, transports players to an unknown world. Starting with a small settlement, the players create a desert fortress with turrets, walls or mines, which they have to protect against external threats and enemy clans. The resulting missions and playing styles provide excitement, creative playing fun and a pinch of humour. The game is planned for PC and consoles.
"Arbo" (it Matters Games, 80,000 euros) is a meditative video game for mobile devices which invites the player to take care of a virtual plant. This plant must be cultivated over an extended period of time until it develops into a magnificent tree which attracts more and more new forest dwellers. The game's main attraction is its charitable aspect: "Arbo" supports charitable projects that engage in reforestation and the protection of nature.
"Sunset Bay" (Rote Sonne Ventures, 40,000 euros) is a VR-experience for individual relaxation and meditation. In the app, the user floats in the direction of the sea during sunset. Music and colours are calming and comforting, abstract works of art move around in the sky. The release is planned for the Oculus Quest amongst others.
The "Immersive Experience for Tourism and Culture" (Interlake Media & La Siala Entertainment, 40,000 euros) is a 3-minute mixed-reality experience designed to explore the possibilities of VR and AR for the tourism industry. The project is being developed in participation with the support of the Volucap Studios, the Film University Babelsberg KONRAD WOLF and the Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts as well as other companies from Berlin and Brandenburg. It is scheduled to be displayed, among other events, at the World Tourism Forum in Switzerland in May.
Right-wing populists have joined forces to form an international network, which persistently pursues one objective: to destroy the EU and liberal society. "Vice snappt bunt" ("Vice snaps in colour", Vice Media, 50,000 euros) is a community-based Snapchat format designed to introduce a younger target group to this topic, encourage self-reflection and help them categorise content. Pre-produced editions are planned along with short-notice reactions to current events (e.g. protests in Chemnitz) or live streams – always through direct interaction with the users.
News from the games department of the bildundtonfabrik: In the app "Dino-Dino" (btf, 70,000 euros) for children between the ages of 3 and 6, everything revolves around the world of dinosaurs. The focus is on child-friendly design and scientific accuracy. As the players feed dinosaurs, dig up fossils or paint skin and plumage, they learn things about the way of life of the animals and their significance in the greater system of life. Illustrator Benjamin Denkert, who also designed the highly-acclaimed character designs and concept artwork for the MBB-funded game "Trüberbrook", is responsible for the drawings.
Messages from the legendary nature researcher and scientific pioneer Alexander von Humboldt are soon going to be available directly on mobile phones. "Hier kommt Alex" ("Here Comes Alex", Chapter One Media, 50,000 euros) is the name of a chat format in which the user has the opportunity to accompany Humboldt on his legendary travels to Mexico, Cuba or Colombia for 30 days and to talk with him via Whatsapp and Telegram. The chat format is supplemented by Germany's first Insta-novel.

Spring and Fall
One of the peculiar things about living in a Western culture in the Southern Hemisphere is the seasonal mismatch of all the significant cultural holidays. Here we are coming out of winter, celebrating the arrival of spring -- blossoms, butterflies, daffodils and ducklings, longer days and light-filled nights -- and yet here comes Halloween, All Hallows' Eve, the Christian festival in remembrance of the dead overlaying Gaelic Samhain and more ancient festivals, with all their implications of harvest, autumn and fall.
It is a peculiarity that those of us born in the south seem to manage without issue (our only complaint generally being that we have no mid-season festival to ease the dullity* of the long winter months). But then the human mind is more than capable of handling cognitive dissonance — and of finding connections and echoes in even the most different things.
It's been a long winter, the coldest I can remember for a good fifteen years. One of my preoccupations this winter has been planning and running a family reunion celebrating seven generations of the Chappell family in New Zealand (the reunion took place last weekend). Family is important to me, history as well, and so, I thought, as spring brings me back to the writing world and Halloween approaches, what a perfect moment to dust off a story I wrote back in 2013, and share it with the world.
This is a story of family, a story of All Hallows' Eve, a story of ghosts. It is a tale of a friendship and of endings and new beginnings. It seems to me a fitting blend of fall and spring. It will be free to download from Smashwords. I hope you enjoy All Hallows' Eve.
* dullity — brownie points for you — yes, of course, I made this word up, but what a perfect blending of nullity and dullness...!

I have been trying my best to get my house back in order over the last month or so. It takes so long for me to get back into routines and get back to "normal" after a baby arrives. As part of getting back on track is deep cleaning.
I LOVE a clean, well organized home and struggle when there is clutter and chaos. I am constantly striving to keep the house clean and come up with systems that work for me. I am discovering the art of making and keeping a home is a lifelong pursuit. Just as I think I have one thing figured out, a wrench is thrown in the works and I have to start over again on creating systems and routines.
Thus, I have resolved to get something done about creating the new system for this stage of life we are in, now: married with 2 kids. I don't know how long we will be in this particular stage of life; but my goal is to come up with household solutions to keep me sane for the time being.
Enter my concept for a series in the month of March for this blog: March "Maid"ness. I will be doing research on cleaning (according to the pros), exploring solutions to common household problems and generally putting in to practice the things that work for our home.
And I would love for you to join me!
Every weekday from March 4th to March 29th, I will be posting something to do with cleaning, organization, and home keeping along with a challenge for the day. I hope this encourages us to get our houses in order and discover the systems that work in our homes. Please stop by in the morning to get the latest challenge and then leave a comment or a link to your blog telling us how you did.
I can't wait to get started! Who's with me?
