Accessing Swift's Compiler and Interpreter: REPL
Let's now investigate how to access the Swift compiler from the command-line interface known as the Read-Eval-Print-Loop, or REPL. This is where you can interact with the compiler by entering statements, which the compiler will interpret and evaluate immediately.
What Is REPL?
The REPL is an interactive shell similar to the UNIX shell and those of other languages such as Lisp, Ruby, and Python. When you start the shell, you are given a prompt to enter your code. The compiler interprets and evaluates the entered code and then prints either the result or an error.
If you don't have Terminal in the Dock, locate the Terminal app in the Utilities folder and drag it to the Dock, then launch ...

by CL Anderson (no matter what is says up there)
So, here's the official version:
It was announced on Friday, April 2, at Norwescon 33, in SeaTac, Washington, that the winner for the distinguished original science fiction paperback published for the first time during 2009 in the U.S.A. is:
BITTER ANGELS by C. L. Anderson (Ballantine Books Spectra)
Special citation was given to:
CYBERABAD DAYS by Ian McDonald (Pyr)
The Philip K. Dick Award is presented annually with the support of the Philip K. Dick Trust for distinguished science fiction published in paperback original form in the United States. The award is sponsored by the Philadelphia Science Fiction Society and the Philip K. Dick Trust and the award ceremony is sponsored by the NorthWest Science Fiction Society. The 2009 award was given to EMISSARIES OF THE DEAD by Adam-Troy Castro (Eos) in a tie with TERMINAL MIND by David Walton (Meadowhawk Press). The 2009 judges were Daniel Abraham (chair), Eileen Gunn, Karen Hellekson, Elaine Isaak, and Marc Laidlaw.
This year's judges are William Barton, Andy Duncan, Bruce McAllister, Melinda M. Snodgrass, and David Walton.
This is what happened on my end:
Surprisingly for a night when my book was up for a major SF award, I went to sleep pretty easily. I did, however wake up a bit after midnight. I'm on east coast time, so the ceremony would have been over for just an hour or so.
"I didn't win," I said to myself. "I know I didn't win…But I'll just check online to see if they've posted the results yet."
So I put on robe and glasses and fired up Google. As I suspected, there was nothing yet. "Oh well. Doesn't matter, because I didn't win."
Then, the phone rang. Annoyed, and muttering about stupid wrong numbers in the stupid middle of the stupid night, I stumped into the next room and picked up.
"You won," said the voice of Nisi Shawl.
"You won."
After that, it got incoherent for an extended length of time. And loud.
Nisi is not only a fabulous writer, but is a friend from way back, and she kindly agreed to stand in for me as I was not able to make the trip to Seattle this year. She also kindly read an excerpt from BITTER ANGELS, and, as it turned out, the remarks I'd sent along, just in case:
Thank you all for coming tonight, and thanks to the judging committee for their kind, and favorable consideration of BITTER ANGELS. This book represents a return to science fiction for me, and I'm delighted to be home, and to be welcomed back so warmly. In a time when war is frequently considered inevitable, it is not always easy to write about the possibility that humans might choose to leave it behind, but I feel it is important to at least present the possibility, because if we cannot even imagine a future without major armed conflicts between human beings, it most surely will never happen.
I'd like to thank my editor David Pomerico who helped make this a better book, and the members of the Untitled Writers Group for their patient, helpful critiques. I'd very much like to thank my friend Nisi Shawl for kindly agreeing to stand in for me at this time, and of course, I thank my husband Tim for his constant love, support, and invaluable assistance in designing star ships and star systems.
Thank you again,
Carolyn Anderson

In the mornings it is good to have time to meet together with the children and welcome them to the centre for the day. As part of the daily routine children usually look forward to this group time. If you have younger children that will not sit still in a group sometimes it is best to do at the table before morning tea. This is a good chance for you to teach children some welcome songs/prayers – nga karakia timatanga. Today I will go over a few that you can sing or say with children.
Tēnā koe.
Tēnā Koe hello to one
Tēnā Kōrua hello to two
Tēnā Koutou hello to all
Haere mai everyone
Welcome everyone.
E te atua tenei matou
e inoi ana ki a koe
mo ngā mahi o tēnei ra
He Karakia Timatanga
He Hōnore he korōia ki te Atua
He maungārongo ki te whenua
Whakāro pai ki ngā tāngata katoa
Hanga e te Atua he ngākau hou
ki roto ki tēna, ki tēna o mātou
Whakatōngia tōu wairua tapu
Hei awhina hei tohu tohu i a mātou
hei ako hoki i ngā kupu
I roto i tēnei Atarangi
Ake ake ake Amine
Mōrena ki a koe
Mōrena ki a koe
Mōrena ki a ……………………….(child's name)
Kia pai to ra
(tune of happy birthday)
I hope these are of use to you this week. The more you repeat them the more the children will start repeating them with you. After a while you can change to a different one to learn.

Egypt court sentences 11 to death over fatal football riots
An Egyptian court has handed down the death penalty to 11 men after they were found guilty of being involved in the country's worst football violence three years ago. Another 41 defendants received prison sentences.
The sentences announced on Tuesday came at the end of a retrial after Egypt's top appeals court overturned a 2013 verdict in the same case in which 21 defendants were condemned to death. A second appeal is still possible.
The clashes between long-time rivals of Port Said's al-Masry team and visiting Cairo team al-Ahly took place on February 1, 2012 during Egypt's tense and highly politicized period of military rule following the 2011 January revolution which brought an end to three decades of rule by dictator Hosni Mubarak. Seventy-four people were killed in the football stadium violence.

Thirty-seven-year-old defender Sol Campbell is being lined up for a short-term comeback by Championship club Derby County.
The Rams' boss Nigel Clough sees the veteran's experience as key in the club's battle to reach the play-offs, and is keen to bring the former Tottenham, Arsenal, Portsmouth and England defender to Pride Park until the end of the season in both a playing and coaching role.
Campbell was last seen at Newcastle United last season, and although he disappointed there he has been searching for a club ever since his release from Alan Pardew's side. He is known to be keen to carry on playing for at least another six months, and although he has received offers from abroad it is believed that he finds the opportunity of coaching Derby's youngsters tempting.
One of the finest centre-backs of his generation, Campbell hit the headlines in 2001 when becoming one of the first players to exploit the new Bosman rule in moving from Tottenham to fierce rivals Arsenal for no fee. A mainstay in his country's defence for over a decade, he played in every one of England's major tournaments between 1996 and 2006.
Derby – who are also set to sign the Sunderland forward Ryan Noble on loan this week – would see Campbell as cover for first-choice centre-back pairing Shaun Barker and Jason Shackell, but it is the defender's influence off the field which has attracted Clough to the idea of the surprise move.
The club are currently eighth in the Championship and just two points off a play-off place, and Clough feels that Campbell's knowhow could help inspire them to a strong second half of the season.

Deadly Premonition Director's Cut Heads To Steam Greenlight
Deadly Premonition Director's Cut Heads To Steam Greenlight
The PS3 all-new scenario from Swery is included, you say?
Swery fans, rejoice, as Deadly Premonition: The Director's Cut is headed to Steam Greenlight. This edition of the occult ... well, maybe surreal is a better word ... hell, just call it mind-bending search for the killer of Anna Graham, previously only seen on PS3, will include the new scenario from Hidetaka 'Swery' Suehiro, as well as better textures and PC-exclusive bonus DLC content. As with any other Greenlight title, this needs community support before it becomes a thing, but given what it is that support shouldn't be long in coming.
"Steam's Greenlight process is a first for Rising Star Games and there is nothing better than the cult hit Deadly Premonition: The Director's Cut to make our mark on it," says publisher Rising Star Games' Martin Defries. "Our vocal fans have been calling for a PC version of this game, so using Steam Greenlight gives those fans the chance to make a difference."
If you like it and you want it, go and vote; the quicker this gets Greenlit, the quicker the Raincoat Killer will be brought to justice.
Source: Eurogamer
Yes, yes , YES!!!!!!!!
Oh, man. I loved this game on 360. Was really bummed out I would never be able to get the directors cut. I've been watching the Two Best Friends Play LP and it keeps making me want to relive the insanity. To Greenlight!
You know what's really scary?
After watching Matt and Patt play I say bring it on! If I can enjoy Command and Conquer 4 if I can enjoy this game!
Let me take a couple of snippets from Jim's review of the original version on 360 as to why you PC players should vote this up.
As someone who has played the game, I couldn't describe it better myself, and heartily recommend it.
You need a comma or a ; in your title, right now it sounds like the director of deadly premonition is cutting off heads.
Oh man, I love it. I hope more developers start doing this. Voted.
"Special Agent Francis York Morgan, please just call me York, everyone calls me that."
Deadly Premonition is my favorite game that I have never played. I watched both Giant Bomb Endurance Runs, Super Great Friend's LP of it on Something Awful, and have been following Two Best Friend's run of the Director's Cut since I can't really afford getting it myself (really want to though, my PS3 aches for it).
It getting greater availability and eternal life in Steam is an absolute good.
You've got me intrigued. Where would you put it? Or has the title changed since you made that post? It hardly seems like much of a crash blossom to me. (This one about bishops is my favourite ever.)
Anyway, I'm pretty excited about this being released. I don't have access to many consoles, and I've been avoiding finding out anything about it for years in the hope that I'd be able to play it one day. Never thought it would come to the PC, though.
'Deadly Premonition Director's Cut Heads To Steam Greenlight' Thats how it starts out reading, it needs a comma or something here. Deadly Premonition Director's Cut, Heads To Steam Greenlight
Why does this game have to go through Greenlight? Its publisher already has a game on Steam. That's how the ungodly aweful
Geez Greenlight is so broken.
Ack! Well I try not to be a language prescriptivist (I'm a fiction editor, and there's nothing worse than someone coming in and trampling over your sentence rhythms), but that would be VERY non-standard. You're adding punctuation purely to dispel an ambiguity that doesn't really exist. If "heads" isn't a verb, then what is? Do people talk about "Cut Heads" as something someone can possess?
Sorry, this is a bit weird. But I'm a UK editor working with mostly US clients, so I'm always interested in things like this. But I think this sounds like a case of hyper-correction.
My only worry with Deadly Premonition is that it will be vastly overwritten. I love Japanese mystery games, but I have a hard time getting through them. Even Phoenix Wright and Professor Layton would benefit from some serious trimming. I want to love them, but all the repetition just saps my enjoyment. I found the Miles Edgeworth Game a real chore.
Didn't Unskippable did an episode on this game? Oh yeah they did (I recongise that dead naked girl on the three anywhere)!
So are they going to fix and patch the PS3 version or maybe even hand them a slice of that DLC?, seeing as how the PS3 now has nothing unique at all for the game and PC has everything and a bonus.
I would love to add this to the backlog for the PS3 but I guess that ain't going to happen now the "super best" version is head above all others, sigh.
Is this really happening? Wow, this is certainly unexpected news.
I've heard so many great things about this game so I will checking this out.
After watching LP's of this all I can say is this game is awful, and stupid, and dumb.......but so very entertaining. It definitely falls into the so bad it's good category. I'm curious as to how much better it'll look on PC. Hell, if the price is right, I'll snag a copy.
Jim Sterling summed this game up better than no other
"A Beautiful Train wreck"
No lie, that review is how I found Destructoid and became a fan of Jim Sterling. I knew almost nothing of the game when I picked it up. Got it on a whim, because it was cheap in the second hand section. Played through it, loved it and thought:"No way in hell did this review well." Out of curiosity, I googled 'Deadly Premonition review' and ended up (amongst others) at Jims review. Every paragraph left me nodding my head with a smile on my face. Truly, Jim understands precisely what makes that game a wonderful, terrible, glorious, awful, brilliant disaster. The day it hits a Steam sale, I'll probably just start forcing copies on people in my friends list.

When word let out that supermodel, businesswoman, and entrepreneur Kimora Lee Simmons was resurrecting her clothing brand, Baby Phat, fashion mavens everywhere rejoiced.
Founded in 1999, Simmons' Baby Phat became, specifically for women of color, a cultural symbol for the decadence, glamour, and sex appeal with her now iconic rhinestone tees, adorably chic feline logo, jaw-dropping magazine ads, and star-studded runway shows. Simmons told People Magazine on International Women's Day, that the comeback of her brand felt like "the rebirth of my baby."
Simmons' timing couldn't be more apropos. In a time when Black women's physical attributes are being co-opted for Instagram followers and contemporary brands like Fashion Nova are tapping Kardashians to model their curve-contouring apparel, authentic representation is at a deficit. It also helps that early 2000s nostalgia is trending—evident with the comebacks of tiny sunglasses, logomania, and low rise jeans.
"When [Baby Phat] first popped on the scene what I loved was that it was so in your face and you could tell that a woman of color put it together," writer and educator Stevona Elem-Rogers tells Broadly. "It was luxury that she made attainable to everyone. No matter who you were, you were, for the most part, able to access this brand that was unapologetically for you. It wasn't trying to be for white women, it was for us."
As a young Black-Asian-American model from St. Louis, Simmons was an anomaly in the modeling industry, and yet, she was handpicked by Karl Lagerfeld to close a Chanel runway show at only 14 years old. She credited her time spent as Lagerfeld's muse as to how she nurtured her own fashion tastes and skills. Simmons took those lessons with her when she was given the reigns to launch Baby Phat, at first just an offshoot of her then-husband Russell Simmons' Phat Farm hip-hop clothing brand. Baby Phat's apparel quickly inherited the urban aesthetic of Phat Farm—aspirationally decadent, comfortable, bold— but for a more feminine customer.
"All of the excesses of the logomania era reminds us of a time when anything seemed possible. Nostalgia and fashion are like little magic spells that can transform us into those hopeful kids and teens again," says Hannah Black, a Chicago-based stylist and creative director for The Isis Nicole Magazine. "It was a more carefree, irreverent time, pre-smartphones. I think we subconsciously crave a time when the radio, magazines, and MTV were our connecting cultural forces."
As one of the only women of color who had a regular spot in the annual fashion week lineups, Simmons intentionally cast diverse models, at a time when it was still rare to do so as well as having herself, the CEO and designer, be the face of the brand's countless campaigns. To double down on appealing to women in hip-hop, Simmons' styled artists like Lil Kim, Missy Elliot, and Aaliyah, regularly, in her garments. And through advertisements, Simmons and her glam lifestyle were always front and center—diamonds and fur galore, casual product placement of a then must-have Motorola Razr, and role-playing as the first female President.
Simmons via Baby Phat, helped meld together the worlds of high-fashion and hip-hop, in a way that wasn't kitschy or forced, because it was merely a reflection of her lifestyle as the model wife of a hip-hop mogul.
"People of color, even today, we're still just trying to etch out space in the fashion market and we're still just trying to get a little shine," says journalist and former Vogue senior fashion writer, Marjon Carlos. "I think there was something about that moment that was really deeply authentic, which I think we're kind of missing right now. It was its own style, it's own moment."
The resurrection of Baby Phat, however, isn't solely about cashing in on nostalgia-inducing trends. Rather, a Baby Phat comeback signifies the reminder that we need POC designers creating for POC consumers and rightfully claiming ownership in traditionally white spaces.
"[Kimora] was a woman of color, obviously Russell Simmons was a person of color, and they were moving in this fashion space and they had clout and were actually making money," says Carlos. "When young kids of color saw this brand that offered an aspirational lifestyle from people that were really living it I think that they were like 'Oh yeah, I'm totally down for this, I see myself in this and maybe I'm gonna get a piece of the pie too.' It was aspirational in that respect."
Simmons putting herself, and eventually, her two young daughters, Ming and Aoki Lee-Simmons, as the starring faces of the brand throughout the years, was a solidifying factor in assuring that the Baby Phat product resonated with its targeted audience—Black women. Simmons could have gone the route of designing "for everyone" (ie: the very white fashion consumer with a disposable income) but catering to the type of woman that her friends were, her daughters would grow up to be, and who she was herself, was her clear agenda.
For Rogers, the inclusion of Simmons' daughters as part of the rebrand is a smart and culturally conscious decision as well.
"I'm excited to see what [Ming and Aoiki] will produce alongside someone who is the architect of so much of what we love in clothing that is specifically for us and by us," Elem-Rogers says. "It's really intergenerational—you're talking about women of color across generations who are really putting something back into the culture and I can't think of a more perfect time for that to happen."
Regardless of what styles and pieces the upcoming Baby Phat relaunch will bring back or newly introduce, Simmons has solidified since day one, her role as the unofficial spokeswoman for the you-can-have-it-all working mother mantra that so many Black and brown women of today aspire to achieve. The 43-year-old mother of four exists as a figure outside of her romantic partnerships and assured that her name, her brands, and her money, were always a top priority.
"Kimora wore so many hats and allowed me to really think about and dream about the different hats that I could wear and still be my full self," said Elem-Rogers. "I could express the different parts of myself and didn't just have to choose one—I didn't just have to be in a relationship and be all about my partner, I don't have to be just about my children. I can live in these multitudes of spaces, and I think she taught [women of color] that. She really helped us define who we were going to be."

PCHR Condemns Shooting Attack on Member of Fatah Central Committee, Ahmed Hilles (Abu Maher)
Ref: 33/2019
Yesterday afternoon, 08 March 2019, Unknown gunmen opened fire on a car belonging to the Member of Fatah Central Committee and the Commissioner-General for Mobilization and Organization in Fatah in the Gaza Strip, Ahmed Hilles (Abu Maher), in al-Zawaidah area in the central Gaza Strip, but no casualties were reported. The Palestinian Center for Human Rights (PCHR) Condemns this crime and stresses the importance of intensifying efforts to identify the perpetrators and bring them to justice.
According to investigations conducted by PCHR, at approximately 17:30 on Friday, 08 March 2019, unknown persons opened fire at the vehicle of Hilles while returning to Gaza from a scout graduation ceremony for girls and boys at Mohammed al-Durrah Stadium in Deir al-Balah. Before reaching the main Salah Addeen Road, a group traveling in a car with no plates on it opened fire at his jeep, but none was injured.
The Interior Ministry published on its website a statement for the Ministry's Spokesperson, Iyad al-Buzzon, saying that: "The security services are following up the shooting attack on the car of Fatah leader Ahmed Hilles in Deir al-Balah area in the central Gaza Strip on Friday afternoon. According to the initial investigations, the car front was hit with one bullet but no injuries were reported. An investigation was opened into the incident to identify and prosecute the perpetrators."
PCHR hereby condemns this incident, which is part of the state of proliferation of weapons and assault on the rule of law in the occupied Palestinian territory (oPt). PCHR also calls upon the Attorney General to open a serious investigation into the incident, prosecute the perpetrators and bring them to justice.

Planning A Visit? There's Lots To Look Forward To!
by Alastair Hamilton -
Maybe you've been to Shetland before; perhaps a trip in 2019 will be your first. Either way, the islands offer rich and memorable experiences at any time of year, with a whole range of outdoor and indoor activities on offer.
Our islands, each of which has its own character, reward explorers. It's very easy to travel between them; some are linked to the mainland or to each other by bridges. Others are connected by efficient ferries and, in some cases, air services. However, Shetland is larger than many people imagine; it can make sense to base yourself in two or three different locations during your stay.
One of the many good things about a Shetland holiday is that it's still easy to enjoy the kind of peace and quiet that's becoming rarer in corners of the UK that were once thought remote. Our roads remain uncrowded. On beaches and around our coast, you may well have the place entirely to yourself; well, apart from an inquisitive seal, or maybe even an otter.
Our great outdoors offers all sorts of opportunities; walking, cycling and kayaking, for example. Wildlife is everywhere, and the islands are notable for exceptional bird life; there are seabirds in abundance and bird-watchers find rare migrants in spring and autumn. Larger sea creatures, for example porpoises, minke or humpback whales and orcas can also sometimes be seen. Luck plays a large part, of course, but it helps that local social media sites light up when there's a sighting.
Botanists will find much to interest them too and we even have some mini-forests if you need to re-connect with trees. If the shaping of the land fascinates you, Shetland is a UNESCO-registered Geopark, with an astonishingly complex geology. At Ollaberry, in the north mainland, there's a remarkable exposure of a geological fault, part of the same one that forms Scotland's Great Glen.
If you're interested in archaeology, we have a wealth of sites to explore, including the extensive remains at Jarlshof and Old Scatness. There are many brochs, these mysterious iron age towers whose purpose is still not fully understood, including the virtually-complete example on the island of Mousa. In our museums, you can uncover all of Shetland's story.
There's lots of information on our website about holiday planning, including information about how to get here, how to get around and the areas you can visit. Whether you're thinking of staying in a hotel, a B&B, a self-catering property or a hostel, you can find all the relevant links. If camping appeals – in a tent or one of our unique camping böds, we have information on that, too. If you arrive by yacht, we have many well-equipped marinas.
When you do want to get involved in one of our many festivals and special events, there's no lack of choice, because they embrace everything from music to wool, boats to cinema and drama to literature.
The year begins with a string of fire festivals, running from mid-January until mid-March. The largest, the Lerwick Up Helly Aa, involves almost 1,000 torchbearers and thousands of spectators, but those in country districts can be just as enjoyable.
Shetland is home to several amateur dramatic groups and the annual County Drama Festival takes place from 4th to 7th March, in Lerwick's Garrison Theatre. As well as watching a wide variety of plays, audiences can hear the critique offered by the independent adjudicator.
April sees the first of several musical events when, on the 26th and 27th, Shetland's young fiddlers compete for the honour of Shetland's Young Fiddler of the Year. Shetland fiddlers are highly-esteemed in traditional music circles; Aly Bain is still the best-known internationally, but many rising stars are making their mark. The talent on display at the competition is always remarkable.
Many of those fiddlers, young and old, appear in the Shetland Folk Festival, one of the major UK events of its kind, but they're joined by dozens of performers from many corners of the globe. The music on offer is eclectic, with excursions into jazz, blues and rock, among other genres. Scandinavia, Scotland and North America always feature strongly, but over the years there have been performers from, for example, Australia, Bolivia, Mongolia and Zimbabwe. Tickets are always in high demand and it's wise to register for membership in order to benefit from early booking.
The summer is a time of hyper-activity in the islands, with all sorts of diversions on offer. Lifeboat days, a midsummer carnival, yachting and rowing regattas and several agricultural shows punctuate the diary between June and August. The larger ones include the invitation-only Simmer Dim Rally, from 20th to 23rd June, when hundreds of bikers from the UK and beyond converge on the islands.
A few days later, from 26 to 29 June, Lerwick's harbour is packed with scores of yachts taking place in the annual Bergen-Shetland Races, bringing lots of colour and even more activity in what's always a busy port.
July kicks off with the Shetland Nature Festival, with all kinds of activities on offer between the 6th and 14th. The programme always includes guided walks and talks, many of them aimed at youngsters, focusing on that magnificent natural environment and the wildlife that surrounds us. Immediately afterwards, the enterprising people of Unst, our northernmost inhabited island, welcome us to UnstFest (13th-21st July), the programme for which is always astonishing in its diversity. There are so many events that it seems as if every inhabitant must be involved in organising it.
There's more music in the annual Folk Frenzy, which runs from 18th to 22nd July. Originally known as Fiddle Frenzy, a summer school for those wanting to improve their fiddle skills and learn about the Shetland Fiddle Tradition, the festival has recently branched out to explore wider folk traditions, although the Shetland Fiddle still plays an central role. There are also evening concerts and lots of associated workshops, not all of them involving music.
Another annual event, Shetland Boat Week, will see a wide range of activities between 1st and 10th August. Boat trips, displays of boats, fishing trips, cooking sessions, talks and much more are on offer. Shetland's heritage is obviously bound closely to the sea and the week offers everyone, young and old, the chance to renew and celebrate that connection.
The agricultural shows get under way in August. The three largest ones are in Voe (on the 3rd), Cunningsburgh (on the 14th) and Walls (on the 10th), followed by Unst on the 31st and Yell on 7th September. All of them are about much more than agriculture; there's home baking, photography, craft work and knitwear, too.
As summer fades into autumn, there are more festivals. ScreenPlay is all about film, curated by film critic Mark Kermode, film historian Linda Ruth Williams. It always presents an outstanding selection of films in the excellent cinemas at Mareel, our arts centre. They're accompanied by talks and Q&A sessions featuring leading actors (such as Timothy Spall, in 2018) and directors (like Nick Park, of Wallace and Gromit fame, also in 2018). Dates have yet to be confirmed but it's likely to take place around the end of August.
Next up is Shetland Wool Week, an event which celebrates everything to do with Shetland's textile heritage. It attracts knitters and spinners from all over the world and offers an extensive programme that includes talks, visits to wool spinners and producers, workshops, masterclasses and a great deal more. The 2019 dates are 28th September to 6th October.
October also sees our annual celebration of Shetland's food, the Taste of Shetland Festival. As well as stalls and pop-up cafés that offer the pick of produce from land and sea, there are demonstrations and competitions, with the highlight being the final of the Cooking Challenge, the prize for which, in 2018, included a six-course tasting menu with matching wines at Restaurant Martin Wishart in Edinburgh, plus superb accommodation.
Music is to the fore again in mid-October, when those with a passion for accordions and fiddles enjoy tunes from a wealth of local and visiting bands at the Shetland Accordion and Fiddle Festival. There are concerts at venues around the islands, with a final grand dance at the Clickimin Centre in Lerwick, where up to 1,000 dancers are kept on their toes by a dozen or more bands.
WordPlay is the Shetland book festival. Held in early November, it's a chance to hear from a range of authors and participate in workshops on a variety of themes. In 2018, we were able to listen to talks by local writers such as Malachy Tallack, John Goodlad and Robert Alan Jamieson alongside visiting ones, including Prof. A C Grayling, the Guardian's Patrick Barkham, Orkney-based Amy Liptrot and Jo Swinson MP. We can look forward to a similarly impressive line-up in 2019.
Around this time, too, and for the rest of the winter, we can occasionally expect to see an entirely natural spectacle in the form of the Northern Lights, or aurora borealis. Many displays are quite subdued and their astonishing beauty is best appreciated via photography, using a long exposure, as in the example below. But there are usually a few times each winter when the display is much more dramatic and, occasionally, the whole northern half of the sky - or even more - glows with shimmering curtains or shafts of light, so that you're aware of it as soon as you step outside. Even without the aurora, dark skies in almost all of Shetland offer an opportunity to see the full glory of the Milky Way.
These are just some of the events that take place through the Shetland year. There are hundreds of others: Sunday afternoon teas, local regattas, stand-up by nationally-known comedians, sporting tournaments, classical recitals; they're all here.
Indoors or outdoors, you really won't be short of things to do in these beautiful and welcoming islands, whether you're here simply for a holiday or may be thinking about a more permanent change of pace and place.
Whatever tempts you to 60° north, we hope to see you in 2019!

Young Adults
What is Labre?
Labre is a street outreach ministry that delivers food to the poor. More than just a meal delivery service, Labre uses food as a tool to build relationships through encountering the poor in our neighborhoods and on the streets. The program began in Northeast Ohio in 2002 and has since spread to several midwestern cities. The program gets its name from the patron saint of the homeless, St. Benedict Joseph Labre. The Society of St. Vincent de Paul in Dayton is now offering this program as a way to encourage young adults to love those who are often forgotten by our society.
When and where does Labre happen?
Labre volunteers deliver food one day every week in the downtown Dayton area and surrounding neighborhoods. Each day begins and ends with time for prayer and reflection on the experience.
Who should participate?
Young adults, age 18 or older, are encouraged to participate.
Our Mission
The Dayton District Council of St. Vincent de Paul, growing in spirituality and friendship, provides Christ-inspired person-to-person support in an empowering effort to improve the lives of those in personal, spiritual, or material need.

What meal are you looking to cook for?
Here we have our recipes in categories according to meal types and star ingredients. When I am looking for recipes myself, I like to be looking by category of meal types but also by star ingredient. Because if ur looking for a recipe to use something in particular you have available, it makes it easier to find one!

Translated by Act for freedom now!/boubourAs
On 4/12/10 one more terrorist operation is set up and executed by the genuine lackeys of the system resulting in the arrests of six fighters.
Stella Antoniou, Kostas Sakkas, Giorgos Karagiannidis, Alexandros Mitrousias, Christos Politis and Dimitris Michail are arrested and held hostage accused at first for participation in a "unknown terrorist organization". Comrades Mitrousias and Karagiannidis had chosen the peace-less path of clandestinity for more than a year since arrest warrants were issued against them for the "Halandri case". Six months later Politis and Michail are released and the charges against them are dropped.
With no evidence and fake charges (but with loads of vengeance), the charges of participation in a unknown terrorist organization is transformed into participation in the R.O. Conspiracy Cells of Fire, which is denied so much from the four arrested comrades as well as the imprisoned members of the organization. The plan of extermination of our brothers begins with the prosecution applied on Karagiannidis and Mitrousias concerning the sending of incendiary packages to embassies and leaders of european states, an action for which the C.C.F. has claimed responsibility.
The two comrades with a letter to a newspaper refer to the reasons for this prosecution. The intrigues however do not stop here. 250 incendiary attacks carried out by the organization Conspiracy Cells of Fire until 2009 were dug up after 3 years in order to fall, with absolutely no evidence, on the backs of K.Sakkas, S.Antoniou, G.Karagiannidis, A.Mitrousias as well as the imprisoned members of the C.C.F. and fighter Theofilos Mavropoulos (and in the end who knows to who else).
A result of this recent prosecution is the new imprisonment of all of them –an imprisonment used as a vengeful tool by the prosecuting authorities on the comrades because of the end of their 18month detainment for some of them. When the laws become tools of revenge in the hands of dominators and you feel the noose taking more and more of the air you breathe the only thing left is to fight them with more rage, storm the struggle naked of all the fears they elaborately tried to dress you with, attack those whores who falsely tried to subjugate you, by throwing in their faces those tones of trial briefs, convictions and years of prison with the thought that this struggle is not only just but also necessary.

BBQ Gremlins???
Hello, I am a long time follower of this forum and have learned a lot from reading the various topics concerning BBQing in general.
Here's my current issue... I have the large Weber Smokey Mountain, I generally put about a half a bag of Kingsford charcoal in it, along with 4 fist size pieces of Hickory and Pecan, 2 each.
I prep my smoker, clean it, add the charcoal, get it lit, wait for it to grey up a little then add my hardwood chunks, fill the water container, close the lid set my dampers and wait for it to come to temp.
I have it down pat where I know the damper positions required to sustain a 10-12 hour cook if needed and maintain 225-250 degrees with minimal roller coastering.
I prep my ribs, and when the Smoker gets to temp I do the traditional 3-2-1 and it has always worked for me. It is almost more like cooking with science than anything because I always do the same thing, and generally always achieve consistant results.
The problem I have had the last two times is I did my usual prep and cook times and for some reason the St.louis style ribs (this is what I usually cook most).
They used to have the meat pull back from the ribs, and now it seems that I am not getting the pullback from the ribs causing them to be exposed on the tips. And it seems that the ribs are not breaking down the fat and rendering as it used to, and I am getting minimal rib tip exposure ie meat pulling back from the ribs.
The ribs are tender, not to the point they are falling apart, but not so tough they are not edible.
I dont know if my Thermometer on my WSM is wrong or if the ribs I am buying are not as good as they used to be or what.
I'm doing everything as I always did and used to get a consistently great looking, tasting rib that had rib bone exposure, was tender but not so much they would not leave the "bite" marks as folks who compete tend to prefer.
I would think that by having my vents the same as always, and using the same amount of charcoal and the same amount of hardwood for smoking that I should still be getting a consistent heat and my cooking times should be pretty close considering all the previous is done as I always have.
Has anyone else ran into a situation where they are bbqing as they always have and the end result is just not the same?
I even pulled my ribs off the WSM last time and finished them up in the oven after the 3 hour smoke time, and again the ribs just were not right and I know my oven is correct because I have tested it and I do a lot of baking so it is critical that it be set at the correct temps.
Could it be that the Ribs I am buying are just not the same?

what dog owners say about Tina Edwards
Dog Training & Behavioral Therapist
You can filter these results to find reviews related to behavior problems of interest.
19th August 2009Tina Edwards dealt with:
Very satisfied with the training Tina Edwards gave. She took time and trouble to explain feeding and training. I learned a lot and will now carry on putting into practise all I was taught. My dog really enjoyed the session and so did I. Didn't realise how easy it was to train a dog with a quiet voice and gentle handling. Well done Bark Busters.
A very sweet natured girl, who seemed to have been used as for puppy breeding and rehomed when no longer wanted. A lucky girl to have found a lovely home and although she had a few issues, the main one being chasing the resident cat, she responded very well and we were able to get her to behave better with the cat at the first session.

Herne Bay, Kent (Testimonial)
12th August 2009Tina Edwards dealt with:
Although the fee for this training initially seems high, I can honestly say from our first session with Tina I now have no qualms about what we've paid. Tina herself was lovely, extremely informative and easy to talk to/understand. Although Rhodey and Dave are having ongoing training, the changes (in Rhodey especially) are amazing!!! He now is actually a joy to walk for one and although he is still a pup is so much calmer in himself! A big thankyou to Tina and we are looking forward to addressing his other problems.
A young male dog, already large at only a year, Rhodey was beginning to "throw his weight around"! I showed his owners how to take control of him without using any physical methods like leads or holding collars etc and we got him walking calmly. He had been so difficult to walk he had not been out for some time. Dave is actually more difficult! The smaller and older of the two who needs work, but in the second session we had him walking on a loose lead for the first time in his life!

Gillingham, Kent (Testimonial)
12th August 2009Tina Edwards dealt with:
Charlie started to respond to the training in the first lesson; we have seen a big change in him. He is 60% better on the lead and he is much calmer in the house. There has been no jumping up on coffee tables etc and and he stops being naughty when I correct him, also I can stop him from jumping up at people when they arrive. We still have a lot to do, but I'm so pleased with the result so far as he is respecting me more too.
Now that Charlie understands what his owner wants, he is happy and wants to please them. Lots of praise, encouragement and guidance has helped him to "listen" to commands and enjoys the one to one attention during training.

Bexhill on Sea, East Sussex (Testimonial)
29th July 2009Tina Edwards dealt with:
We started to see a difference in the first hour. Tina was very informative on all aspects of ownig a dog. Really looking forward to the next session.
A young dog, found as a stray and now very nervous of the outside world. Her fear shows itself as aggression and extreme hyperactivity when on lead and a desire to escape and run away. Inside she improved rapidly, but outside will take time,patience and calm behaviour to help her to overcome her fears and trust her owner's decisions. She will be well worth the effort.

Tonbridge, Kent (Testimonial)
27th July 2009Tina Edwards dealt with:
I felt Tina explained things very well. It was very benificial to have so much time doing practical training with her here. Our dog has responded very well and is already it's already making a difference.
A young girl, rather excitable especially with the young children in the home. She used to enjoy leaping up and grabbing arms in her mouth! We taught her that this behaviour was not acceptable and taught her to listen to and respect the humans in the household rather than treat them like young dogs like herself!

Brenzett, Kent (Testimonial)
24th July 2009Tina Edwards dealt with:
The session was great and the therapist was fantastic. I could highly recomend her and Bark Busters to anyone.
This boy was barking and always wanted the "last word"! We tackled this first and had a great result, then moving on the the other areas that needed work, he walked well, but still needs more work for recall.

Battle, East Sussex (Testimonial)
21st July 2009Tina Edwards dealt with:
After three years of having my arm almost yanked out of it's socket on my daily walk with Jake, my labrador, I was amazed that after just one session he was walking perfectly - and still is a month later. Still a bit of work to do on his habit of rushing to greet every person/horse/jogger/other dogs, but I'm very hopeful!
A big chunky labrador, but with a lovely character, just not understanding his role in the home or on walks! We worked on general obedience and his focus and acceptance that his owner makes the decisions not him! We then started leadwork which he took to really well, responding happily to keeping next to his owner on a loose lead.

Heathfield, East Sussex (Testimonial)
20th July 2009Tina Edwards dealt with:
We really enjoyed meeting Tina and had a very positive morning with her. She was extremely helpful and we are confident in great results. We look forward to keeping in tough with her.
A delightful, cheeky young dog, full of life and fun, but running off and not responding to recall causing huge anxiety and worry for her owners. Also a very lively girl demanding lots of attention. We worked on her listening to her owners taking into account her young age and showed her what was wanted. She loved her training getting loads of praise which she adored! She'll not lose her cheekiness, which is part of her charm, but will listen and therefore be safe.

Sevenoaks, Kent (Testimonial)
18th July 2009Tina Edwards dealt with:
It got to the point where I dreaded taking Poppy out for a walk or having visitors round. She had become aggressive and unpredictable. Now I feel there is light at the end of the tunnel. I'm so happy that we contacted Tina, she showed us the training in a light and friendly manner and did not make us feel stupid for all the istakes that we'd been making. I look forward to Tina's next visit.
I noticed early on in the session that Poppy pulled away from a gentle stroke down her back and on investigation, following a visit from a physiotherapist, old trauma was found and although this had healed she had bad memories and her body was sensitive. We are working on helping her to "unlearn" the aggressive behaviour to show her that interaction with dogs and people won't hurt her. That and massage should help her body and mind repair completely.

6th July 2009Tina Edwards dealt with:
Since the first session Buddie is responding well to recall and who is "the leader of the pack". I have changed her food which she has welcomed. Short lead work going well. Barking in the garden also improved. Had first encounter with another dog whilst out and off lead also a marked improvement despite the initial dash by her towards another dog but responded to my recall.
A very sweet natured girl who was confused about who should be making decisions! The session involved work in home and garden and short and long lead work showing her how to behave with other dogs in a more sociable way.

The Gig is Up: Rise of the Locum Life in Medicine
Today on Locumunity's blog, we are featuring Dr. Andrew Wilner, a neurologist with a medical career spanning nearly 40 years, including 10 years of locum tenens experience.
He is also author of the ultimate locum tenens guide, "The Locum Life: A Physician's Guide to Locum Tenens."
Being a physician-led initiative, Locumunity is honored to add Dr. Wilner as an official member of our advisory board as we work towards a shared vision to empower physicians to reclaim ownership over their job search and add transparency.
- Tell us a bit about yourself and your journey as a physician:
- I'm board-certified in both internal medicine and neurology and a practicing neurologist. I also did an epilepsy fellowship at the Montreal Neurologic Institute.
- During a ten-year period, I worked locums and established a second career as a medical journalist. In my free time, I frequently traveled to the Philippines, where I became a PADI divemaster and accomplished underwater videographer.
- While working locums at the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis, MN, and later at the Mayo Clinic, Phoenix, AZ, I realized that the combination of clinical work and medical student and resident teaching suited me as the ideal practice style.
- When I got married, I searched for a permanent position. The security of locums allowed a leisurely job search. After two years, I found the perfect position as Associate Professor of Neurology at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center, Memphis, TN. It's my dream job.
- For those who may not be familiar with the term "locum tenens" can you explain what it means?
The term applies to physicians who work temporary assignments as independent contractors.
- In the over 30 years that you've been practicing what have been the major changes in medicine that you've noted?
When I graduated from Brown Medical School in Providence, RI, in 1981, the ideal medical career meant owning one's own practice. Unfortunately, the business of medicine has changed since then. In 2016, for the first time, more than 50% of physicians worked as employees. The number of practice owners continues to shrink. Also, many physicians are "burnt out," struggling desperately to find work/life balance. Some have left clinical medicine to pursue nonclinical careers. Others have succumbed to suicide.
- What inspired you to write a guidebook relating to Locum Tenens work?
Locum tenens helped me achieve professional satisfaction and work/life balance.
I wanted to share this option with other physicians looking for an alternative path to success, which is why I authored The Locum Life: A Physician's Guide to Locum Tenens.
As a companion to The Locum Life, I've posted YouTube videos that highlight the essential points of each of the book's 20 chapters.
- Anything else to add to our interview today?
Locum tenens isn't for everyone. It requires personal and professional flexibility and an entrepreneurial spirit.
If you're considering locums, check out Dr. Wilner's free videos and the The Locum Life book. It's a great way to get started!
Locumunity is a data and community driven tech startup aiming to create a direct connection between the locum physicians and medical facilities.

There is a circle of shadows beneath the tree. We are all this menses haunted dream; the recurring nightmare. She rows us around storms and quakes, Her oars studded to shine in the mind's eye. All we can see is the slow pace of a journey with no end. Memories' loop replaces the dusk with the ambiguity of broken symbols and disappointed looks, now more than ever.
These symbols. These broken symbols keep the past lingering in both lost and fond hopes, my soul searching it's mirrored landscape until pieces no longer know how to return…And their light, my glowing soul takes, making animated these still and stagnant memories.
I have lived in moratorium, stagnant and halted by the expectations of ancestors and planted disguises upon which I stood like a silent clown waiting for a passerby to rewind my tomorrows and applaud my mimicry. Tinkering around in loops I heard the voice of a prophet, who was followed by a glowing door as She traveled between worlds. Her words, like no tongue from Earth summoned my attention "If you are sleeping, you are also awakening. As you are ascending so you are also descending. If you are stuck you also carry the gift to release yourself." And I choked on my tears and sang a song that bubbled up in sobs and then I came to calm the drama of my heart , and rest into my stagnating steps. The light of Her presence began to penetrate my moratorium, and I was made to express again.

Sullivan Chamber CEO resigns
MONTICELLO, NY — Cathy Paty will resign as president and CEO of the Sullivan County Chamber of Commerce effective June 29, according to a press release from Brad Rutledge, chair of the chamber's board of directors. "Since 2010, Cathy has played a critical role in the development and success of the organization, and while we will miss her and her inspiring leadership, we wish her the best of luck in her new endeavors. We want to thank her for the nearly five years of dedicated service as President/CEO and nearly nine years of loyal commitment to our organization."
He further wrote, "Over the next few months, we will be conducting business as usual and determining the best action steps for the organization. During this transition period, it is our priority to find the best individual to lead, while still maintaining a stable and effective organization. We will share the job announcement soon and ask for your help in identifying candidates who can help the Sullivan County Chamber of Commerce & Industry, Inc. continue along this successful trajectory."
PA lawmaker: test more rape kits
HARRISBURG, PA —Victims of rape would be able to have their rape kits tested anonymously and without a police report, under legislation introduced by state Rep. Mike Schlossberg.
"Currently, a rape victim who is too traumatized to make an immediate report to law enforcement may decide to wait and begin the process of healing first. However, the rape kit taken at the hospital must sit untested for that entire time period. Under current law, the report and the testing are inextricably linked. While the kit goes untested, a serial rapist may be free to harm others," Schlossberg said.
A recent audit by auditor general Eugene DePasquale revealed that Pennsylvania's law has a serious flaw. While the law gives victims the right to take up to two years to make a report and preserves their rape kits for that time, it does not permit victims the right to submit the kit for testing without making a report. The bulk of untested kits remaining in Pennsylvania fall into this category.
"Victims of rape face enough struggle. We need to have compassion for them. We need to give law enforcement tools to go after rapists to prevent other people from becoming victims and my legislation would do just that by fixing the flaw that exists in state law," Schlossberg said.
Meet Dem candidates in Liberty
LIBERTY, NY — Sullivan County voters are invited to a special one-on-one forum with the seven candidates seeking the Democratic nomination in the 19th Congressional District on Thursday June 7, at 7 p.m. at the Liberty Senior Center, 119 North Main St.
The event, sponsored by the Town of Liberty Democratic Committee, will feature Democratic congressional candidates Gareth Rhodes, Brian Flynn, Antonio Delgado, Erin Collier, David Clegg, Pat Ryan and Jeff Beals.
Town of Liberty Democratic Chairman Bill Liblick said, "If we are unhappy with Congress and our local representation, now is the time we can to do something about it. It is vital that voters come out and meet the candidates seeking the Democratic nomination for Congress and discuss the issues that affect all of us."
Camp sewage an issue
GLEN SPEY, NY — The Upper Delaware Council (UDC) is awaiting a response to a January 2017 letter to state officials regarding their oversight of a historically problematic water treatment facility at Camp Simcha in the Town of Lumberland. UDC questioned the state's testing of a newly expanded treatment plant during fall, a period when the summer camp was minimally occupied.
The facility operates under State Pollution Discharge Elimination System (SPDES) permit most recently amended in 2015. The permit was issued for a commercial sewage upgrade from 17,500 gallons per day discharge to 45,000 gallons per day. The UDC exchanged letters with the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) in the fall of 2016.
In a November 2016 response, DEC noted that the camp "was placed under an Order on Consent #R3-20041220-179 on April 8, 2005. The facility has completed remediation requirements outlined in the order to address issues at the facility…" DEC reported that a 2016 final inspection of the facility on October 25 found it "is currently on schedule to meet the requirements outlined in the modified SPDES Permit."
UDC responded in January 2017 questioning whether an October inspection would duplicate summer conditions when some 846 campers would be on hand, and asking whether testing had been done in summer. There has been no DEC response to the last UDC letter.
Neighbors have complained persistently for many years about smells coming from the sewage treatment facility at the camp.

January 17, 2019
Date: January 2019
Our first TrufElle Book Club meeting dug deeply into the complexities of infidelity in both modern relationships and historically. Perel attempts to explore infidelity without judgement, reviews numerous case studies and shows the perspectives of all parties involved in affairs, including the reasoning, hurt and pain. Discussions among our intimate group were candid and provocative with a touch of humour, discovery and reflection. Over tapas and wine, we explored moral views on infidelity, what constitutes cheating, and if someone can romantically love more than one person. This group shared stories, views and new perspectives which helped us all grow and consider the complexities around this topic.
More Information: We are planning our next book club meeting in the Spring. Let us know if you would like to be updated on this event. Maximum group size: 10
Attendance for Book Club events is limited and by invitation only. If interested please contact us.
Attendees chose their own nicknames. Here's what they have to say:
Question 1: What is your morale on Cheating?
Boris: – We used to have parties where everyone flirt with everyone, it's offensive if someone doesn't flirt with your wife.
– Can't talk about cheating as it's not a nice Catholic way
– My view is " What you focus on expands in your heart"
Dragonheart – I can't see a definite right or wrong.
– I was in a dream, I was taught to stay a virgin until I get married, then stay with that person until the end of my life.
– I was that person they told me to be until I got married, then I am no longer the person that he fell in love with after I got married.
– We are not meeting the need of each other.
Euonia – I see a double standard, I can't stand it when he cheats, but I am starting to feel okay if I cheat
– I get blamed for cheating anyways, so I am starting to think, should I just cheat?
Anastasia- I went to being judgmental about cheating, to I can't really judge anyone anymore, everyone has their own story and reasons.
-" It doesn't matter where you get your appetite as long as you go home to eat"
Aluap: – I am fascinated about the psychology about cheating, we have an agreement that I might cheat but I am not going to tell him. And he's okay with that
Question 2: Can love be plural
Boris – Lots of people confuse love and need. Love is for the other, need is a love to get something for yourself.
Kasey: – Compersion – I want to see them be loved.
– Love is the ability to want them to be better
– Need is wanting them to change for me, with a personal gain.
What is your definition of Cheating
There are no conversation
There is always the burden of openness
Millennials doesn't see cheating as an issue anymore because their view on monogamy is changing.
We don't want to be monogamous anymore, sex is easy, intimacy is hard.
Aluap: They do not have affairs, they cheat
Question 3: What is your famous Quote from the book
Casey: – Wedding ring is the heaviest piece of metal ever
– What we expect from our partner during marriage is a huge burden from the other person. We seek everything and everything we want on that
one person, and for years and even a lifetime.

The border between Gaza and Israel is a battle zone. Hamas, the party that governs Gaza, is dedicated to the destruction of Israel. It has tried everything from firing rockets over the border and encouraging Gazans to attempt suicidal border breaches, to sailing burning kites over the border. Hamas refuses to recognize the legitimacy of the state of Israel and until they do, there's no chance for peace. They call Israelis "settlers."
This is the same term that Indigenous advocates use to describe Canadians who aren't Indigenous. Settlers includes everyone except them. The clear implication is that we settlers don't have the same legitimacy to be here as do Indigenous people, because our ancestors arrived here later than theirs did. To them, settler is a term of derision.
It shouldn't be because we owe a lot to our settler ancestors. And we were all settlers once. When settlers first came to what was then called New France, the Europe that they came from was locked in feudalism. Life expectancy and all other human happiness indicators were quite grim. People – Indigenous and non-Indigenous – lived hard and short lives. People could expect to live only to age 35 in those rough times.
As Europe settled into the Age of Enlightenment that gave birth to the modern world, things gradually changed. By the time settlers arrived from Great Britain, and then from every other part of the globe, life had improved. But even at the time of Confederation, life expectancy was still under 50 years.
For Indigenous people, life was even harder. A combination of introduced diseases, inter-tribal warfare and the loss of their hunting and gathering way of life had laid them low. Lives were brutish and short.
It was the settlers, with their hard work and the Enlightenment values they carried, who made Canada the wonderful country it is today. A Canadian today can expect to live 81 years. It's true that lifestyle choices mean that average number is lower for Indigenous people, but that lower number is still far higher than what it was in yesterday's tough world.
The children and grandchildren of the settlers became the doctors, engineers, business people and the like who power this modern nation. It's to the settlers and their progeny that we owe our healthier, wealthier and longer lives.
So we all owe the settlers a great deal. They built this country. The term settler should be a compliment, not an insult. And we should remember that all of our ancestors came from somewhere – whether Europe, India, Africa or Siberia. We were all settlers once.
But we're no longer settlers. The settlement process is complete and Canada is an established country, modern and progressive. People from other parts of the world compete to come here.
They do so because of what Canada offers. It's not only a modern and progressive country, it's a country of equals. People wanting to make Canada their home are promised equal rights and equal opportunities.
We shouldn't disappoint them.
