The Young Israel of Midwood shared the following with Matzav.com regarding a matter that can greatly effect the community.
"We are forwarding a press release that impacts our shul. This is a critical issue that demands our attention and action. This proposed school affects us immensely and we urge everyone to pass this along to everyone they know in the neighborhood. Our elected officials need to know our position on this matter as soon as possible. It is important that we unite as a community on this and attend the Community Board Meeting on March 6. In order to speak at the hearing you must register beforehand. Please contact Sol Borg – email@example.com or David Stern – email@example.com. If you would like to speak, we will coordinate your request with the Community Board."
(Midwood, Brooklyn) – Council Member Michael C. Nelson announced today that he has learned of ongoing negotiations for the sale of three lots located on Ocean Avenue between Avenues L and M to the Department of Education, for the construction of a new public school.
Councilman Nelson is concerned about the proposed school, which would serve about 450 students from pre-school to 5th grade, because of the many potential problems that could be presented by the project's location.
While there are still many 'ifs' to be sorted out, the proposal, if made a reality, would negatively impact an already oversaturated neighborhood. "A public school in the proposed location would not serve the residents in the area," said Councilman Nelson, noting that many in the community opt to send their children to one of the numerous private schools nearby. "The area is already dealing with the Department of Education's newly opened and misplaced truancy center, as well as the frequent JC Studio film shootings, which tie down streets for days at a time and take up valuable parking spaces for residents and commercial establishments," Nelson continued.
Community Liaison, Chaim Deutsch added to the Councilman's sentiments saying that between the frequent film shootings, the amount of schools nearby, and the many commercial properties including the massive Pomegranate supermarket, "traffic in the vicinity can get Manhattan-like during rush hour and adding a school would create even more havoc." Deutsch stressed the importance of reducing traffic congestion when possible, specifically for the needs of emergency vehicles.
If a deal is not struck between the landlord and the Department of Education, the city has threatened to acquire the property through the use of eminent domain. It is also known that the School Construction Authority considered four other properties before settling on Ocean Ave. A hearing on the topic is scheduled for Wednesday, March 6th at 7PM at the Community Board 14 Office located at 810 East 16th St. Residents are urged to attend if they have any concerns.

In order to maximise the results from cosmetic surgery, it's important to plan according to the season and your schedule. Whilst tweakments are easy to squeeze in here and there throughout the year, if you're planning anything more heavy-duty, the autumnal season provides the perfect storm of elements to achieve top results and a discreet and comfortable recovery. Here are some treatments we recommend taking advantage of during the sweater weather.
- Laser hair removal – If you're looking for a more permanent solution for unwanted facial hair or excess body hair, laser hair removal is the perfect option. A course of treatments to fully destroy the follicle can leave the skin temporarily sensitive to sunlight and you may experience some redness and irritation immediately after. For exposed skin areas such as legs, arms and face, consider starting the treatment in September.
- Tummy tuck – A tummy tuck scar takes between several months to a year to fade. Logistically, the autumn months are the only time to undergo the procedure, if you want to maintain your winter holiday and summer lifestyle. Baggy sweaters hide the post-op compression bandages and scars will fade in time for your summer holidays.
- Chemical peels – This glow-tastic treatment is the go-to option for anyone suffering from lacklustre, dull, lined facial skin. It supercharges skin rejuvenation. The only drawback is that two weeks downtime is needed to recuperate after the peel procedure, and sunscreen is a necessity for at least three months after the treatment. The longer nights and darker days during winter offer the perfect opportunity to hunker down and recuperate.
- Breast augmentation – Clients often find the colder months preferable to recover from a breast augmentation, as you can discreetly settle into your new enhanced shape from the comfort of sweaters and coats. Undergoing the procedure in the fall also ensures you'll be on tip-top form for the winter party season.
- Laser skin resurfacing – Laser resurfacing sloughs away the outer layer of dead skin cells to encourage regeneration deep in the skin's membrane. It's loved for its ability to eliminate lines and wrinkles. Invest in the autumnal months: recovery will be so much easier due to reduced sunlight. It's important to protect yourself from the sun during the 3 month recovery period to prevent pigmentation problems. Undertaking it during the autumn months will give you a headstart.
- Brazilian butt lift – Conceal your augmented shape and recover discreetly from a Brazilian butt lift during the cooler, more comfortable autumnal months. Re-emerge for the winter season fully recovered and ready to celebrate the holidays with friends and family.
To discuss your expectations and which 'September reset' treatment is perfect for you, schedule your free consultation with Dr. Bhar today. Visit www.harleystreets.com, call 020 7935 6554 or get in contact by expressing your interest via this form.

Regent Street Motor Show a Success
Supercars are not uncommon in Central London but, even by the capital's lofty standards, last Saturday's Regent Street Motor Show (Saturday 31 October) was very, very special. The city's world famous West End shopping street was closed for a very special 'mile of automotive style' stretching between Piccadilly and Oxford Circuses as the UK's largest free-to-view motor show showcased a glittering display of more than 200 cars from past, present and future generations. Savouring the unseasonably warm weather, hundreds of thousands of enthusiasts, shoppers, London residents and even rugby followers bound for the World Cup Fanzone in near-by Trafalgar Square all relished a huge variety of eye-catching machinery. This year's Show embraced everything from motoring's early pioneers to the latest plug-in hybrids with the futuristic Aston Martin DB10 from the new James Bond film Spectre drawing huge crowds.

"Roller coaster of emotions"
As children grow into young adults, parents often have questions about puberty and the changes their child is going through. Pediatrician Donna Smith, MD, answers some of these questions in this DiscoverHealth.org series on puberty.
What emotional changes can I expect as my child moves through puberty?
You can expect a roller coaster of emotions during this time. Your child is happy one minute and crying or angry the next.
Tweens and teenagers no longer seek the approval and praise of parents, but that of their peers. You can spend hours telling your daughter that her hair and skin are perfect, but she will not accept it as true unless she hears it from a friend.
Likewise, they are very easily hurt by remarks from peers who disparage their clothing or appearance. That is why social media is such a danger at this age. Teens don't think twice about saying something in a text or post that they wouldn't necessarily say to someone in person.
What physical changes can I expect as my child moves through puberty?
Both boys and girls develop more muscle mass, though it is usually more obvious in boys.
With the advent of year-round sports, it is important that weightlifting is limited to body weight or body weight exercises until they are significantly through puberty. Your primary physician can give you some guidance at yearly well visits.
Acne is the bane of every adolescent's existence.
I encourage basic cleaning twice daily and no picking at skin, which may introduce more bacteria and cause scarring. Again, your physician can help with recommendations for more significant acne. Please make an appointment with a dermatologist if you note cystic or scarring acne.
Donna Smith, MD, is a pediatrician at Medical Group of the Carolinas — Pediatrics — Spartanburg —Westside. To make an appointment, call 864-560-9600.

Nottingham: June 14: Opener Shikhar Dhawan is not letting his injury get the better of him as he strives to recover fast and get back to playing for India in the ongoing World Cup.
Dhawan posted a video of him sweating it out at the gym with a plastered thumb. Along with the video, the 33-year old shared a message thanking his fans for their best wishes.
"You can make these situations your nightmare or use it (as) an opportunity to bounce back. Thank you for all the recovery messages from everyone," Dhawan wrote alongside the video.
Dhawan was seen doing leg exercises as India get ready to take on Pakistan in a marquee clash in Manchester on Sunday.
Dhawan suffered the injury after being hit by a Pat Cummins delivery during his 109-ball 117 knock against Australia.
Rishabh Pant, who was initially ignored for Dinesh Karthik when the 15-member squad was picked, has been named as standby and is expected to fly in to England as cover.
"Shikhar will be in a plaster for a couple of weeks, we'll assess and see. Hopefully he'll be available for the later half and the semi-finals. He's motivated, we wanted to keep him back," Kohli had said after their New Zealand tie was called off on Thursday due to rain and a wet outfield.
Dhawan was back to his sublime best against Australia when he struck his 17th ODI hundred, a crisp 117 off 109 balls.
Dhawan will be monitored by the team management for the next 10 to 12 days before a call is taken on the opener.
"We will take at least 10-12 days to take a call on Shikhar's condition. We don't want to rule out a precious player like him," India's assistant coach Sanjay Bangar had said on the eve of India's clash against the Kiwis. (IANS)

Mastodon Tease 'Cold Dark Place' Album
Guitarist Brent Hinds says it's "some pretty dark, beautiful, spooky, funky, ethereal, melancholy music"
Published Aug 17, 2017Before Mastodon delivered their Emperor of Sand LP earlier this year, it was rumoured the release would be a double album, one half of which was written by guitarist Brent Hinds. The axeman told Guitar World last year that it was titled Cold Dark Place and was written about a breakup he had gone through. Now, the effort may see the light of day as a standalone project.
While there has been no official announcement from the band, an Amazon UK listing points to a September 22 release date through Reprise/WEA. Hinds corroborated the album's existence by posting the art to his Instagram account, promising fans that there are "new jamz coming soon!"
In 2016, Hinds told Guitar World that the record contains "some pretty dark, beautiful, spooky, funky, ethereal, melancholy music, which also sounds like the Bee Gees a little bit."

One of the detrimental design features of the Program is the inclusion of an automatic procedure that is triggered in the event of a non-response from a welfare recipient. If a Centrelink recipient fails to respond to DHS in person or online, or if they do not provide sufficient supporting documentation or information, the system automatically substitutes these information gaps with a fortnightly income figure derived from income data held by the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) for the relevant employment period.
The Government's own data shows that thousands of debts have been generated in error, with approximately one in five debts having been incorrect or waived. It can be assumed that a high number of debts have simply been paid because people have been unable to provide all the supporting documentation and evidence that is required (retrospectively) by Centrelink.

Anthocyanins in Leaves and Other Vegetative Organs: An Introduction
Date of this Version
Document Type
Although anthocyanins are most recognized as pigments contributing to coloration in fruits and flowers, they are also present in leaves and other vegetative organs. Although their presence has long been recognized, particularly because of their contribution to autumn coloration, the phenomenon has been poorly studied and is not well understood. In this chapter we review the history of research on anthocyanins in leaves, emphasizing the flurry of research at the end of the 19 th century as well as the growing body of contemporary research on the topic. We emphasize the various hypotheses of anthocyanin function that were mainly developed more than a century ago, and emphasize recent research that takes advantage of our dramatically increased understanding of whole plant physiology.

Just did another of my periodic "New Look Gmail sucks" searches and came up against this interesting post on the techeye.net website.
It is interesting because it looks at the issue of New Look Gmail now that the option to revert to the Old Look has been removed. Note that this doesn't affect me as I chose to use the HTML Gmail interface and IMAP email clients a while back. For my webmail needs I and am slowly moving myself to my existing MyOpera email account. MyOpera email has a much more usable UI with unfashionable things such as text labels next to icons and clear separation of page elements.
Back to the article at Techeye.net, the interesting thing is that it makes the same points I have been making for some time, not just about usability but also about the problems of becoming dependent on Cloud computing solutions.
It is also good to read that I am not alone in my reaction to New Look Gmail and the generally undesireable direction that Google have been taking recently.

The End Is Near: Visions of Apocalypse, Millenium, and Utopia
Revelation Revealed (Detail), William Thomas Thompson
May 1997 - May 1998
Curated by Roger Manley
Big Bang Theory
Throughout human history, the "End of the World" has been thought to be about to happen more times than anyone can count. The explosion of the volcano on the ,island of Santorini in 1500 B.C., the destruction of Pompeii in 79 A.D., the Fall of Rome in 410, the Black Death (bubonic plagues) of the mid-fourteenth century, the Lisbon earthquake of 1755 - are only a few examples of the thousands of times when the people who experienced such catastrophic events assumed "the End" to be near. At other times - such as the end of the first millennium in 1000 A.D., the Millerite movement of 184, and more recently the Branch Davidians in Waco, Texas, or the Heavens Gate sect in Rancho Santa Fe, California - groups of believers were swayed by charismatic leaders into thinking the end of the world was at hand. But it was only after the Second World War that doomsday was seen as a real possibility by nearly everyone in the world. When atomic bombs were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, people everywhere realized that for, perhaps the first time, humankind actually did possess the power to destroy the world as it is. Threats of nuclear annihilation were soon followed by others like global warming, nuclear reactor waste, world overpopulation, urban decay, new viral diseases, and species extinction.
Visionary artists have reacted strongly to these impending crises in a variety of ways. For some, a state of madness and mental excitement (the "vatic" state referred to in Von Stropp's painting by that title) led to prophecies of doom and destruction, while others have used the possibility and depiction of disasters as a call for action - arguing that the responsibility for saving the work rests as much with ourselves as with any Higher Being.

HOLT, Fla., Oct. 6, 2017, 8 a.m.–The National Hurricane Center has shifted the predicted track of Tropical Storm Nate east based on overnight information to include a portion of the western Florida panhandle.
At this time, Pensacola and Milton are included in the predictability cone. The immediate Holt area is not. However, the eastern edge of the cone is just west of the Okaloosa-Santa Rosa county line. A slight move east and the cone shift could include Holt and Crestview in its eastern edge.
A tropical storm watch is in effect from the Mississippi-Alabama border to the Okaloosa-Walton county line.
Nate is predicted to be a category one hurricane with 80 mph winds by the time it is close to the U.S. Gulf coast.
The storm is forecast to reach the northern Gulf Coast late Saturday or Sunday and the threat of direct impacts from wind, storm surge and heavy rainfall is increasing from Louisiana through the western Florida Panhandle, according to the NHC.
The NHC forecast calls for some strengthening through the next 48 hours as the storm makes its way across the Gulf of Mexico.
Currently, Nate has moved back over water and is moving toward the north-northwest near 14 mph toward warm waters of the northwestern Caribbean Sea and within an environment of light wind shear.
The storm is expected to continue on this general track with a marked increase in forward speed is during the next day or two, according to the NHC.
The center of Nate will move across the northwestern Caribbean Sea today and reach the eastern coast of the Yucatan peninsula early this evening.
There is a possibility that Nate could be near hurricane intensity when it approaches the Yucatan Peninsula later today.
Nate will then move into the southern Gulf of Mexico tonight and approach the northern Gulf coast Saturday evening.
Rain predictions for central Gulf coast states is 3-to-6 inches up to 12 inches.

Situated in the southernmost corner of California along the U.S.-Mexico border, San Diego County is home to relaxed oceanside towns, desert oases, lively urban centers, and quiet suburban communities. The second most populous county in the state, the region has continued to boom in recent years, attracting not only more tourists, but also new residents—and it's easy to see why. Between all the acres of wilderness, picture-perfect beaches, world-class galleries, mouthwatering cuisine, and family-friendly attractions, sunny San Diego County offers many tantalizing reasons to stay awhile.
Among the most frequently visited destinations is Balboa Park in the city of San Diego. Also known as the "Smithsonian of the West", the 1,200-acre urban cultural park is where visitors can discover more than 15 museums, performing arts venues, lush gardens, unique architecture, delectable fare, and the renowned San Diego Zoo. Other kid-approved locales include the San Diego Zoo Safari Park in Escondido and the Legoland California Resort in Carlsbad.
For more outdoor fun, head to the largest state park in California: Anza-Borrego Desert State Park. Located on the eastern edge of San Diego County, the sprawling expanse boasts hundreds of miles of dirt pathways for hikers, cyclists, and horseback riders. But visitors who want to take to the mountains should go to Mission Trails Regional Park. There, traverse the labyrinth of trails by bike, go rock climbing, or trek to the top of Cowles Mountain—the highest point in San Diego. And of course, a day at the beach is a must for any San Diego County visitor; luckily, there's no shortage of options. Whether you choose to lounge on the shores of upscale La Jolla, explore the beach and coastal wilderness of Torrey Pines State Natural Reserve, or sink your toes in the sand at Del Mar City Beach, it's hard to go wrong.
Visitors may also opt to relax at luxurious retreats like the Pacific Terrace Hotel, play a round of golf at Coronado Municipal Golf Course, eat their way through the foodie hot spot of Little Italy, or simply sip craft beer at the popular Ocean Beach Brewery—all right beside the sparkling Pacific Ocean.

Angry parents protested outside a primary school after it emerged an 11-year-old girl had been charged with sex offences.
Police were called to the school in Stirling, Scotland, as a ten-strong crowd of parents gathered at the gate.
Locals described the scene as "absolute chaos" and reported dozens of pupils being pulled out of the school by their worried parents.
A community police officer was able to disperse the crowd of outraged parents which gathered at around 1:30pm yesterday afternoon.
A Police Scotland spokeswoman told the Daily Record that a child had been charged with a number of offences, including sex offences, and a report has been sent to the Children's Reporter – the government body which processes offences involving children.
It is understood that the child is a pupil at the school but the offences did not take place at the school.
One concerned onlooker described the scene on Facebook writing: "Something terrible has happened and all the mums and dads are taking their kids out of school as we speak. Hope all the kids ok."
A police spokeswoman said: "Police in Stirling received reports of a group of adults gathering outside a primary school at 1:30pm on Thursday.
"The group quickly dispersed and no crimes were reported."
She added: "Police in Stirling have charged an 11-year-old youth in connection with a number of offences.
"A report has been submitted to the Children's Reporter."
Stirling Council refused to comment on the incident last night and said it was a matter for Police Scotland.
The school where the parent protest took place cannot be named for legal reasons.

The three main trade union confederations - ACV/CSC, FGTB/ABVV, CGLSB/ACLVB - have called a general strike on 13 February to support their position in the cross-sector negotiations where the employers are refusing to negotiate on key issues and where a government re-calculation of data has produced a negotiating margin of only 0.8% for pay. The unions want to see action on early retirement provision, a minimum pension of EUR 1500 a month, an increase in pay in general as well as a push for a minimum wage of EUR 14 an hour. The other demands include equal pay for equal work and a strengthening of public services and better conditions for public service workers.

- Successfully enrolling patients into the program
- Performing all benefits investigation, prior authorization, and financial assistance work needed to ensure patients have access to the medication they need
- Overseeing services provided to enrolled patients – ensuring that everything from order entry to final verification is completed quickly, accurately, and in accordance with patient's needs
- Providing direct support to enrolled patients to ensure that they are supported throughout their therapy regimen and achieve their intended outcome
- Appropriately triaging any clinical questions to an appropriate clinician (pharmacist, nurse, or provider)
- Assisting the site General Manager with recruitment and training of permanent on-site liaisons
- Training client staff liaisons to ensure the Trellis model is followed consistently and each liaison is trained in the same way
Here's what we would like to offer to you:
- A platform to practice at the top of your license, and build a practice that could become the destination of choice for the best pharmacy technicians

- Competitive compensation including performance bonus
- Excellent benefits package including:

She treated 150 low-income girls like daughters
Big Idea: Joan Karff's Women on the Way Up
Idea person: Joan Karff.
Big idea: Exposing high school girls to culture, the arts, and current events can change their lives.
How it grew: Karff loves dance. She taught dance at Rice, before forming a professional modern dance company. The New Dance Group was the Houston Jewish Community Center's resident company for 25 years, and also performed frequently in area schools. Karff ran every aspect of the company, says Rabbi Laura Sheinkopf.
Fifteen years ago, after dissolving the company, Karff walked into Superintendent Ray Reiner's office and told him she would like to start a mentoring program. She had no teaching experience or curriculum. But Reiner, who was then in charge of the Central District for Houston Independent School District, had known Karff for decades and trusted her. When she committed to work with ten low-income girls each year, he asked his teachers to recommend candidates.
For the new program, Women on the Way Up, Karff spent significant time on the girls' screening interviews. She looked for a spark, an enthusiasm, a curiosity about the world. Although she lacked a definite course of study, Karff had an unwavering commitment to help each of her mentees develop a game plan to live a successful life. Her guiding principle was to expose her mentees to everything that she shown her three daughters.
The first rule of life — and therefore, of WOWU — was to show up on time. Every Thursday afternoon, WOWU offered practical courses in job interviewing, money management and parenting skills. But Karff's main focus was to share her passion for the arts by introducing the group to classical music and theater, by leading discussions on art and dance history, and by taking them to plays and art museums. The trips were always preceded by several class periods studying the thing they'd experience.
Throughout the year, the group engaged in wide-ranging discussions about current events, books and art. Karff assigned book reports and scheduled guest speakers. Always she aimed for her students to understand how art intersects with and enriches life. A performance at the Alley Theater or an exhibit at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, Karff told them, was "like a taste of a wonderful ice cream sundae. Now, it's up to you to go into the world and sample even more!"
Once accepted to the program, each mentee qualified for a $1,000 college scholarship. The aspirations were as important as the money. Often the girls had no family members who'd attended college.
Recently, after many waves of WOWU graduates finished their undergraduate degrees, Karff started a scholarship fund for their graduate programs.
The fifteenth reunion: Sunday, more than 60 WOWU graduates came to thank Karff and catch up with other alumnae. Their ranks include many teachers, one journalist, several lawyers and law students, many accountants, a model, some investment analysts, a nutritionist, a missionary, several nurses and aspiring doctors, a political analyst, and an aspiring winemaker. With 150 graduates, the alumnae group offers not just the companionship but networking opportunities.
Art plays a leading role in the lives of many of the alumnae, including those whose jobs aren't art-related. One graduate is an accomplished salsa dancer; many are avid readers; one has a side interest in fashion design; and several are actors.
WOWU has many traditions, but this is a favorite one: Before hugging the graduates goodbye, Karff encouraged all to ascend the stairs and write comments about the program on the much scribbled-on walls of an upstairs room.
Next step: After 15 years, Karff has decided to step down and pass the leadership role to someone else. She will stay connected to her WOWU alumnae by hosting discussion sessions a few times a year. This fall, the first one will explore immigration's effect on national identity.
She has asked her girls to consider:
As a first- or second-generation immigrant to America, do you feel strongly that you need to preserve your language of origin, your special foods and customers for your children?
Or do you want your children to be 100 percent American, indistinguishable from white, Anglo Saxon kids who are fourth- or fifth-generation Americans?
Bottom line: "This is the best volunteer job in all of Houston," says Karff.
Bookmark Gray Matters. It has no teaching experience or curriculum.

In the wake of the Virginia Tech massacre in 2007, which left thirty-two students and faculty dead at the hands of a student armed with two handguns, gun-control organizations saw an opportunity to press their legislative agenda items forward with vigor. A host of gun-control bills were introduced in the 2008 and, to a lesser extent, the 2009 General Assembly sessions. For pro-gun groups, Virginia Tech's policy of not allowing any guns on campus was more proof that gun control only disarms good people. These groups argued that criminals, by definition, ignore the law and will simply get their guns through illicit methods, such as theft or "straw purchases," and use those guns to commit mayhem wherever they please.

Motor firm cheats over 20 car buyers
Manhattan Motor did not transfer car ownership
The names have changed, but the story is the same.
Another motor firm has closed down after leaving more than 20 buyers without the cars they had paid for.
Manhattan Motor, a sole proprietorship owned by used car dealer Lee Kum Kuen, had sold the cars in the last year or so, collected the money, but did not transfer their ownership to the buyers.
The finance or leasing firms which the cars are still registered with then proceeded to repossess the cars.
Dentist Daniel Chan, 34, was among those affected.
He bought a used Volkswagen Tiguan last month and collected the car on Nov 6.
On Nov 15, he tried to renew its road tax, but could not do so.
He contacted the Land Transport Authority, and was told that the vehicle had not been transferred to him.
It has since been repossessed.
Asked why he did not buy from authorised agent Volkswagen Centre Singapore, which has a used car division, he said: "I didn't want to spend too much on a car. The (Manhattan) price was right. I did an Internet search on the company and there were no bad reviews."
He bought the six-year-old car for $70,000 and paid $50,000 in cash.
In another case, Ms Sytinam Misiri said her father bought a Honda Airwave from Manhattan in June last year.
She drove the car most of the time as her father is elderly.
On Nov 21 this year, she could not find the car. "I called the police and they told me the car had been towed. I was shocked," said the 50-year-old hawker.
She said she had no inkling that the car had not been transferred because her father was able to renew its road tax and pay traffic fines in the last 1½ years.
Police said they have received "more than 20" reports from consumers regarding Manhattan Motor.
"We are looking into the matter," a spokesman said.
Auto Lease, one of the companies that repossessed the cars sold by Manhattan Motor, has already towed back seven vehicles.
"Four are still at large," said director Anthony Lim, adding that such cases have become very common.
"You don't need a licence to be a motor dealer," he said. "Buyers just have to be vigilant."
He also noted that with the current paperless system, it is difficult for consumers who are not computer-savvy to check if a car has been transferred to them.
The Consumers Association of Singapore (Case) said it has received 14 complaints against Manhattan Motor since January, with 11 filed in the last two weeks.
Case executive director Loy York Jiun said: "The complaints were primarily about the lack of transfer of ownership of the car to the consumer's name.
"Case is of the view that collection of payment by the dealer with no intention to fulfil its obligations under the contract is highly unethical and an unfair practice under the Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act. Consumers can seek recourse under the Act."

Retail store owners generate a large volume of data, but how can they use the data to help them boost sales?
Look at it this way: Both retailer and the competitor operate in the same market environment, have the same number of clients, and similarly, their product price points are identical. As well, they set aside the same budget for advertising. But one business ends up outdoing the others! How does this happen? Understanding how data-driven digital analysis helps retailers make smarter decisions is the answer!
After all, if you lack the know-how of tracking and analyzing your decisions in addition to customer purchasing trends and behavior, you face the risk of your business ragging behind. For these reasons, you can't underestimate the power of retail-data analysis as a tool for business.
So, what does digital data analysis entail? What advantages does it bring forth? Where does your business even start? These are the questions to answer.
Retail Data Analysis
Retail data analysis implies an analysis of all entities of an enterprise, right from the sales, inventory, and customer data. The result aims at effectively tracking consumer actions, effectively getting insights from purchases, and traffic heat-maps into your store.
It is essential to note, regardless of retail size, data is available at all touchpoints where customers interact with retailers, both online and offline.
As a result, the retail business can collect the data and use it to propel the enterprise. Insights gathered from data can be used for future planning needs in the store. Furthermore, these encompass marketing, management of employees, and inventory control.
Advantages of Data Analysis
Data analysis removes traces of guesswork in your daily routines, in addition to giving you the correct information about what's on the ground. Where do you apply this? Your store has several facets, sales inventory, customer experiences, among other considerations. Data analysis guides you in making the correct informed decisions, deliver it in real-time, and help in the growth of business revenue while also increasing profitability.
What Data is Analyzed?
Numbers give details, and it is vital to analyze key performance indicators, these include margins, foot traffic, people counting/ walk-in frequencies, and sales growth. This data informs on performance and additionally drives you to in making profitable decisions.
Data makes your retail store more flexible and react faster in leveraging information gathered and presenting competitive advantages. If you don't do data analysis for your enterprise, you face the risk of missing opportunities, dissatisfied customers, and ultimate loss of sales. For more information contact us.

Chain coffee shops can offer a sense of familiarity in an unknown location. However, there are apparent differences that can be unsettling if you were expecting an exact replica of your hometown coffee shop. I brought my American expectations and was met by a British reality.
At first glance, this looked like your typical coffee shop. A refrigerated display offered enticing pastries and convenient prepackaged meals. The screeching of the espresso machine and display of varying cup sizes confirmed our location. The recognizable scent of this sweet nectar of life floated through the air, tempting me to give in to my caffeine addiction.
Upon further inspection I began to notice how different this British coffee shop was from the ones I frequented in the United States. I had expected the typical coffee house jazz music that pairs well with the notes of coffee, but my ears picked up on Ed Sheeran instead. Pop music seemed out of place for the location, especially when it isn't featured on any coffee shop playlists on Spotify. Although nearby conversations were held in my native tongue it was difficult to make out what people were saying. The trademark white noise of the coffee shop translated the British accent into an unrecognizable foreign language.
There were not many tables available which I found surprising for a Wednesday morning around 10:30. It seemed that it was more culturally accepted and expected for tea to be consumed during the middle of the workday. American coffee chains experience rush hours during the early morning as a checkpoint along the working person's daily commute. Here, a group of students laughed around a table with their backpacks close by. Many businessmen worked on laptops, fueled by caffeine. The chairs didn't have time to cool down before a new customer would claim it. There was a busyness at Costa Coffee that provided a constant stream of tasks for the employees.
It is imperative you specify whether you will enjoy your beverage in the store or take it away. At home, baristas assume you want the convenience of a waste producing container but don't mind if you occupy space in their storefront. A local elderly woman ordered her drink and shuffled to her seat, balancing an overfilled mug on a small plate, dangerously close to spilling.
In many ways, this British coffee shop met my surface level expectations as a place where you can sit down with a warm drink and a pastry and perhaps feel motivated to work. A deeper look may provide more insight into the culture and lifestyle of Oxford residents.

Are you seeking fulfillment, purpose, meaning, understanding and happiness? If so, good! All the above equates to personal growth. The level to which you experience the above is linked to the level of your personal growth. The more we learn, develop ourselves and grow as people, the greater the possibility of experiencing fulfillment.With many of us seeking happiness and fulfillment in our personal lives, are you prepared to give yourself the edge in life and tap into the recipes that millions of people are now using to experience true fulfillment?But what is meant by True Fulfillment?Well this will mean different things for different people depending on your individual needs and desires. Happiness and fulfillment are also measured in different ways. For one person, fulfillment could mean having a high paying career with status you've always wanted, a beautiful house and expensive cars etc. Where another person may measure their success on whether they have paid their kids through school/university, getting married and raising a stable family. The list is endless. Either way, happiness is, or at least should be self-defined.Yes, you do have what it takes to be a success in any area of your life. The only person who can prevent you from achieving your goals and success is you. You are an individual and deserve the life you have always dreamed of. The problem is NO-ONE is going to hand it to you. Whilst there are many sources that will help you in your quest for personal growth, the only person who can determine your success is you. This however requires a conscious decision and commitment on your part to embrace the journey and achieve success on your terms.Read through the key areas you need to actively work on to develop your personal growth. The focus here is more on the 'internal' side of things such as:
Self Esteem
Self Awareness
Personal Values
Positive Thinking
Increasing Motivation
Constructive and Destructive habits
Understanding and Handling our Emotions
There are also attributes that you will need to bring to the table in order to make your success a reality and these include;1. Self Awareness2. Positive Mental Attitude3. Commitment4. Discipline5. Reflection and Evaluation6. Persistence7. Emotional IntelligenceMany People ask: "What is Personal Growth?"Many of us have been led to believe, at some point in our lives, that our education/personal growth ends the moment we leave School, College or University. It's as though we handed 'unconscious responsibility' to these establishments on what we shall learn and become. We go into employment and begin to forget about our own personal development, dreams, goals etc.So, having the maturity to take 100% responsibility for your health, your career/business, your finances, your relationships, your emotions, your habits and your spiritual beliefs is absolutely important. Someone seeking personal change must make a conscious decision to do so. They must take ultimate responsibility for their education, direction and results in their life.This often requires you taking a hard honest look at yourself, deciding what kind of person you are, and/or the person that you anticipate to become, and taking consistent action to acquire the self-education necessary to achieve your goals.Just be honest with no one else but to yourself. It is not always easy but the results you experience with conscious personal growth are most definitely worthwhile and if you value mental, emotional, physical and spiritual development, shouldn't your education reflect those same values?By seeking self-improvement, you strongly increase your odds for personal success and realize your full potential. Taking control of your life and destiny is in your hands. If you feel there is more to come from you or you feel that you want to experience different results/outcomes in your life, know and understand that it is certainly possible.In life, you must do something different in order to get something different, to experience results you've never experienced before. You must be prepared to learn and apply things you've never done before. The further down the 'Personal Development' road you travel, you will begin to witness the progress and potential within you and bring those once distant dreams to reality.

- Time
- (Edited)
- Post link
DISCLAIMER: This edit is in the very early stages, I'll be updating this thread with further details as it develops. Images are meant to represent a proof of concept.
"For over a thousand generations, the Jedi Knights were the guardians of peace and justice in the Old Republic. Before the dark times, before the Empire…"
Hello all! After a good amount of time here not to mention years spent as a lurker within the greater fanedit community I felt encouraged and inspired enough to present my own take on the prequels.
Mission Statement
My intention is to create a 3-in-1 non-linear standalone prequel story, one that could be seen cold in place of a marathon. Where we witness the fall of Anakin and the republic, the journey of Obi-Wan, and the end of a bygone era through the life and death of Queen Amidala, hopefully within a 2hr 15minute runtime.
If the title seems jarring, that's on purpose. With all the existing edits and fanedits in the making, most of the best corrective story changes have already been addressed. I will be building off of a few of those suggestions, but I've wanted to try something that would be a shift in presentation, as a way of looking back on the PT with fresh eyes. Personally I don't think you can bend the prequels into the pace and style of the OT, they're just too different. Though many have warmed to the prequels, myself included, the two trilogies still feel distinctly separate. So rather than fight this I plan to lean in on those differences and highlight the best of them. To take things even further I'm dropping the name Star Wars altogether, because it's really a prologue to the 'star wars' anyway, so that's where you get Knights of the Old Republic, two distinct eras.
I've also chosen as a major style decision in the same spirit to present this era visually in 1.37 aspect ratio, also known as academy ratio (examples below). This is for multiple reasons, the first is practical, by cropping roughly 25% at minimum for almost every given frame not only do I have more personal control over where to direct focus, I have more cutting room to space out timing, create new coverage, and so on. Second, I feel the PT better suits an older cinematic style, at its best the dramatic highs are Shakespearean, the intimacy of the tighter shots can really be compelling against the melodrama, there are also a fair amount of full body wide shots that support this composition nicely.
I'll also be doing my own color adjustments but that will be one of the final steps.
Wow, feels like a mouthful and still I've barely said anything! Here is where I'll gradually update with a cut list of all the changes I make: TBD
Cohesion is key, the goal is a clean edit that could be enjoyed and understood by someone who had no prior engagement with the prequels (unlikely, but it's the principle of the thing!).
Making the style not clash with the material, making a bad pan&scan.
Any thoughts, feedback, contributions or questions are appreciated, thank you for taking the time.
"The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the power of the Force." - DV

Tips for Winter Highway Driving
- Make sure to check road conditions before leaving for your trip. Highways are often closed when the weather gets worse from snow and ice, and you may have to plan an alternate route in order to get to your destination safely. You can check highway conditions on the Manitoba 511 website.
- Take the time to pack your vehicle with essential supplies like a small shovel, booster cables, flashlight, first aid kit, blanket and other materials to help keep you warm. In the event you get stuck waiting for assistance on the highway, you're prepared to stay warm.
- If you get stuck or stranded, stay with your vehicle, use your essential supplies to stay safe and call for help.

Wednesday, August 19, 2009
By: Bismarck Nii Ogbamey Tetteh
I AM Albert Atta Dodd, two years ago I was diagnosed of having a very serious heart condition and that heart transplant was the only way out.
Around that same period, Albus Atta Dodd, my identical twin brother, was also diagnosed with leukemia. Even though we are identical on the outside, we are totally different people in many ways.
"I would rather die than endure all that pain in chemotherapy" he said, when he was diagnosed.
While Albus liked jazz, classical music and R&B, I loved hip-life, reggae and dance hall. Albus was a very calm, slow to anger but I was erratic and got angry easily. He loved slim and God fearing ladies and I admired 'bad girls' with huge booty who loved it rough in bed.
In my case my doctor told me I badly needed a new heart and that if I did not get one within a month, something bad could happen. Consequently, he put my name on an emergency list. The situation was getting bad and when the heart was not coming, I became so very disturbed.
One night, I had a call that Albus had been rushed to the hospital. When I got there, he was in a hospital bed and he looked very pale, with his hair almost gone.
I broke down into tears, something I had never done since I became an adult. He looked like he was already dead.
"I was going to loss my life and my only brother was also dying", I said to myself.
Suddenly, I felt a sharp pain in my chest, and within a couple of seconds I blacked out . When I was resuscitated I felt so weak and tired, and could not breathe well, so I called for my doctor. He told me that my heart had become so weak that he was not gong to allow me to go home or walk around.
I quickly asked him about my twin brother and he told me that he was ok, and allowed me to speak to him on phone.
After 2 months, my doctor came running to me one early morning that he had found me a heart, and that I was to get prepared for surgery. The operation went well. After two weeks, I became worried because I had not heard from Albus so I asked the nurse to take me to his ward but she refused. When the doctor arrived and I asked him of my brother, he told me that I had not recovered enough and that I needed to recover fully before I could see him. I started to feel uneasy about his response.
That evening I bribed a male nurse, who was on night duty, and he took me to my brother's ward. When I got there, his bed was occupied by another patient so the nurse took me back to my room.
After I was discharged, the doctor told me that my brother left me a letter.
"Where is he" I asked with anxiety, but he told me to read the letter, adding that "all the answers you needed are in there." It read:
"Dear Albert, let me explain why I had to do this. You were at a point of death at a time where my heart was healthy. And because you needed it to survive,I asked the doctor to give mine to you as soon as he realized it was time for me to die, so you will at least have your life back and my heart will be beating inside you. We will then be one. I hope you understand that it was the right thing I did. While the doctors think only one of us had to live, I think both of us can live but in one body. I will always be there with you. From your loving brother, Albus".
Those were my brother's last words. It's been two years since, and anytime I think of him, I have a feeling he is inside me. My life has completely changed, and I now like most of the things Albus used to like. I am as calm as he was and any time I talked to people who knew him, they keep telling me that I sounded and behaved like Albus.
The only logical explanation for that is his heart beats inside me.

What about online marking?
Many exams are marked online, how did you find this experience?
I have found this way of marking surprisingly easy. It's a bit like using an e-reader. When e-readers first arrived, I thought I would always prefer a book. Then I started using an e-reader and found it was so portable and handy that I much prefer it to paper now. Online marking is the same. The script you will mark is visible on the screen. It looks the same as the paper version. You mark it with the same rigour as the paper version and annotate it electronically. It's simple. You'll receive training on how to use the system. You'll also have plenty of support. Although the system is so simple you won't need much, it's good to know it's there if you do need it.
Did you have concerns applying?
What are the benefits of marking?

Today, I will be sharing with us a story. One that will make you understand more about love and why you shouldn't take it for granted.
Today, I will be sharing with us a story. One that will make you understand more about love and why you shouldn't take it for granted.
Here we go
There was once a man who bought a land, after acquiring the land, he saw the prospects and the richness in the land, so decided to plant something on it.
He later planted maize and the maize was growing so great. This encouraged him and he started nurturing the farmland, taking good care of the crops, giving maximum attention, scaring away rodents.
As he was doing all these, his relatives, friends and people passing by were all warning him about one thing, "why putting all your eggs in one basket? What if someone else takes over the land and take over your harvest?" "or something happens and you are unable to reap the harvest?" But he usually answer that "it's not possible".
At some point, He literary spent almost all he had on the farm because he was certain that by the time he harvests, all his efforts will be rewarded and those abusing him and those calling him unintelligent will eat their words and learn something positive from his story.
At some points, what people say started getting to him and he was asking "what if these people are right, what if I'm just planting for someone else to harvest?" but still, he summoned courage and told himself "I won't give up yet". He continued in his normal routing of caring for his crops.
Time to Harvest
Finally, the time to harvest is close, and he began to rejoice in advance because he knew it was time to reap and get rewarded for his sweat, he went to the farm on the D-day and saw all his crops crushed, builders working, he told himself unbelievably "I must be at the wrong farmland" then he realized that it's real and truly it's his farmland, out of frustration and anger, he nearly injured the contractor that ordered the builders.
Who could have done this?
He is the owner of the land who initially sold it to this man but because the man has not finished paying, he sold it to a rich man who paid at once, and then decided to refund this man his half payment.
If you are the man, how would you feel? Angry, frustrated, like you should avenge? If we look at the stress wasted, the efforts, the insults received because of the land, the hope he had on the farmland, all this turned out to be fruitless efforts.
With all these, if care isn't taken, he could commit suicide because he is already depressed, extremely angry, frustrated and thinking "how will I face the people that have warned and abused me? Where will I start from again, why is life so unfair to me?
What do you feel for the man?
Sadness, right? I want you to connect this to a relationship, this is exactly how partners feel when cheated on or dumped after investing their time, energy, love, finance, shunning all the " are you sure this girl will not dump you later, why not have two girls….. Are you certain this guy won't consider another girl when he hits jackpot" … etc. but despite all these, he or she ignored with the hope of harvesting all these efforts through marriage to the person.
Bottom Line
This little story is being shared to express the pains of those who love truly. As a faithful partner, be sure of who you are investing your efforts on, there is no crime if you test such person a little to know if their land is worth your time and energy.
Also when you see someone giving you all their love and attention, be sure you reciprocate and if possible marry the person.
If you see that the feeling is not mutual, please let them know on time so that they won't because of you hate relationship or brand all men or ladies the same.
Don't be the reason someone will see love as scam or hurt another person as a result of the bitter taste you left in their mouth.
As usual, your thoughts and views are welcome. Cheers.

The Cambodian National Volleyball League (Disabled), organisers of July's 2011 WOVD World Cup, has formed the Kingdom's first women's team for the deaf in association with local NGO Hope for Deaf and Disabled of Cambodia Organisation.
The primary goal is to pitch the national team in an exhibition game during the World Cup to showcase the power of sport in bringing about positive social change.
"The majority of the team are young women with a disability who have been rescued from human trafficking," CNVLD Secretary Christopher Minko told The Post.
American Patrick Russel, a long time resident of Phnom Penh who carries a childhood hearing disability himself, has been entrusted with the task of training the team. "The players are excited by this fresh sporting opportunity. They are hard at work and training is in full swing ahead of their international debut," added Minko.
Laos confirm their entry
Meanwhile, the local organising committee of the World Cup received confirmation from Vientiane of Laos' participation for the first time in the standing volleyball tournament. Laos is only the second ASEAN member apart from hosts Cambodia to take part in the World Cup.
"We are exceptionally proud and excited to have Laos with us," a statement from the organising committee said.
The CNVLD is also working in close cooperation with Laos on a regional wheelchair racing programme. As Cambodia's leading organisation for athletes with a disability having already staged two WOVD World Cups in 2007 and 2009, the CNVLD is planning to invite racers from Laos for the proposed International Wheelchair event to be scheduled during the 2011-12 racing season.

The video you are about to watch captures the last moments of a beautiful bride-to-be as she heads to her wedding with her brother, a pilot, and a photographer who was 6 months pregnant. Little did any of them know that they would only make it as far as a mile away from the church.
Everything seems to be going well and they are smiling as the photographer videos, just outside of Sao Paulo, Brazil. Rosemere do Nascimento Silva wanted to land in style, surprising her 300 guests and groom. Unfortunately, things took a turn for the worse.
Fox News reports:
The helicopter crashed nearly a mile away from the site of the reception, the Daily Record reported. The video of the May 2016 crash has just emerged on Brazilian media.
The helicopter apparently hit bad weather. Police and air crash investigators were looking into reports that it might have hit a tree amid poor visibility with rain, fog, and clouds.

SAD's Hardeep wins brother's seat with thumping margin
It was a thumping victory for the SAD-BJP combine in the MC ward number 10 bypoll. But that's just the politics of it. For 31-year-old Hardeep Singh it was an emotional moment as he wrested the seat vacated by his deceased elder brother.chandigarh Updated: Mar 04, 2015, 13:26 IST
It was a thumping victory for the SAD-BJP combine in the MC ward number 10 bypoll. But that's just the politics of it. For 31-year-old Hardeep Singh it was an emotional moment as he wrested the seat vacated by his deceased elder brother.
Hardeep, a Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) candidate, won by 4,950 votes against Congress candidate Bhupinder Singh Badheri, who got just 2,714 out of the total 10,555 votes polled. The counting at Post Graduate Government College, Sector 11, began at 8am on Tuesday, and was over in 30 minutes — Hardeep led from 21 of the 22 booths.
Emotions ran high as Hardeep broke down after seeing a cutout of his brother and predecessor Malkiat Singh. The seat had fallen vacant after Malkiat's death in October last year due to severe food poisoning during an MC study tour of Port Blair, Kolkata and Chennai.
The family has witnessed similar circumstances earlier. Their father Gurnam Singh had won the MC election from the ward in 2006, but died in 2009 due to brain haemorrhage. In the bypoll then, Malkiat lost to Bhupinder Badheri by 33 votes.
In the polls in December 2011, Malkiat defeated Congress' Jasbir Singh Bunty by 483 votes. And now, after Malkiat's death, his brother has won the same ward. As for the Congress, the party led in the one booth at Government Model High School, Badheri, where he managed to get 438 votes while Hardeep got 314. As many as 177 votes went to None of the Above (NOTA).
This takes the SAD-BJP tally in the MC House to 16, including the vote of MP Kirron Kher.
Ward 10, which comprises Sectors 41 and 42, and the villages of Badheri, Attawa and Buterla, has a population of nearly 35,000 and 24,000 voters, respectively.
Speaking to HT, Hardeep said, "I am grateful to people of the ward, and assure them of completing all pending projects."
Meanwhile, Chander Mukhi Sharma of Congress said the party needed to introspect seriously, as in spite of the fact that Pawan Kumar Bansal campaigned rigorously for the elections, the party lost in 21 of the 22 booths.

The Electric Mountain - Dinorwig, Gwynedd, UK
Created | Updated Nov 14, 2008
Located in the heart of Snowdonia, in one of the most beautiful landscapes in Great Britain, Dinorwig (or Dinorwic) power station is quite an oddity. The location was carefully chosen from hundreds of different areas and, consequently, the power station was built near Llanberis, North Wales. Except this was an area of such astounding natural beauty that the entire power station had to be built underground, inside the mountain.
The station became operational in 1984, but construction work had started ten years previously. It was a huge process, 12,000,000 tonnes of earth1 had to be removed and thousands of jobs were created in an area much in need of employment after the collapse of Wales' slate and coal industries. In total 6,000 man years of labour were used.
Why Go to Such Lengths?
In England and Wales electrical power is distributed throughout the country by a network of power lines owned and controlled by The National Grid. It is their job to ensure that electricity is available when and where it is needed. In the UK, most of the electrical energy is generated by large fossil fuel power plants or by nuclear power stations.
The demand for electricity varies through the day - far less power is used during the night hours than during the day. While it is possible to match this variation in demand by altering the output of the large power plants, to do so is uneconomical. It would be much better if the excess electricity generated at night could somehow be stored for use during the day.
Dinorwig is an example of such a 'pumped storage hydroelectric plant' (there is another at Ffestiniog, also in Snowdonia). During the day Dinorwig's six turbines supply energy to the National Grid and during the night power is fed from the grid to recharge the reservoirs.
In addition, Dinorwig can be brought from standby to peak capacity in approximately 12 seconds, making it ideal for coping with sudden unexpected 'spikes' in demand.
How Does it Work?
The basic idea behind Dinorwig is quite simple. The power station consists of two lakes, Marchlyn Mawr, high in the hills behind Elidir Fawr, and Llyn Peris on the valley floor. The lakes are one-and-a-half kilometres from the other, with a height drop of 500 metres separating them. The two are connected by a series of pipelines. Inside the mountain between the two lakes is the largest man-made cave in Europe, the inside of which looks remarkably like the set for a James Bond movie. Inside this cavern are the turbines.
When there is a need for power, water is allowed to flow out of the upper lake, down through the pipes into the turbines, at immense pressures. Gravity acting on the water forces the turbines round and once the water has passed through, it drains down into the lower lake. This in itself is an excellent system, but can only be used once; if the top lake is empty then no more power can be produced. The solution is simple. During the night when there is an excess of power in the National Grid, the turbines are reversed and are used to pump water from the lower lake back to the top lake, ready for the next peak in demand.
Take a Tour
The power station has an accompanying museum in Llanberis. The museum is excellent and from there - for a small fee - a minibus will take you inside the power station and you will be given a guided tour through the insides of the mountain. The tour is well worth it: the main cavern where the turbines are is quite spectacular, but be warned, take a jumper as you will go a long way underground and it gets quite cold down there, even in summer.
Dinorwig is owned and run by First Hydro Company, a subsidiary of Edison Mission Energy. Further information, including pictures and statistics for both Dinorwig and Ffestiniog can be found at the FHC website.

UK Men's Golf Wins GCAA Team Academic Award
NORMAN, Okla. (July 21, 2017) — The University of Kentucky men's golf team was tabbed an All-Academic Team by the Golf Coaches Association of America (GCAA), for a team grade-point average that exceeded a 3.5 for the 2016-17 academic year. The Wildcats were one of 19 programs, and the only Southeastern Conference (SEC) team, in the country to earn the GCAA's President's Special Recognition honor for owning a 3.5 or better average.
To earn recognition to the GCAA Academic Team a team must submit GPAs for each player on its official squad list for the academic year and have a comprised result of 3.0 or better. The Wildcats were among five SEC schools to capture All-Academic team accolades from the GCAA joining University of Missouri, University of Mississippi, University of Tennessee and Vanderbilt University.
All 12 players on Coach Brian Craig's squad claimed All-SEC academic honors this year. Lukas Euler, Chip McDaniel, Chris Meuth, Fred Allen Meyer, Cooper Musselman, Fadhli Soetarso and Stephen Stallings were all honored on the Spring Academic Honor Roll. Jacob Cook, Evan Cox, Allen Hamilton, Matt Liston and Max Mehles were members of the First-Year Academic Honor Roll.
A player must possess a 3.0 grade-point average for the preceding academic year or his entire collegiate career and meet additional qualifications to earn recognition by the league office.
Furthermore, earlier this summer Craig and the Wildcats earned honors for their Academic Progress Rate scores from the NCAA. The UK men's golf team ranked in the top 10 percent nationally among other Division I golf programs after scoring a perfect 1.000. The APR provides a real-time look at a team's academic success by the progress of each student-athlete on scholarship. The APR scores are a four-year composite, covering the 2012-13 through 2015-16 school years that measure eligibility, retention and graduation.
The golf team has continued to meet the standard of Athletic Director Mitch Barnhart's department-wide goal of an all-encompassing 3.0 GPA. With a 3.538 GPA during the spring semester, the men's golf team earned the top GPA of any men's sport in the department during the spring semester. They were also awarded the team academic award at the 2017 CATSPY awards in April.
