Endoscopy Screening
Colorectal Cancer
Colorectal or Colon Cancer occurs in the colon or rectum. The colon is the large intestine or large bowel; the rectum is the passage way that connects the colon to the anus.
Colorectal Cancer is the second most commonly diagnosed cancer in both men and women and the second leading cancer killer. It is most commonly found in individuals over the age of 50, as cancer risk increases with age.
Most colorectal cancers start as a polyp – a growth that starts in the inner lining of the colon or rectum and grows toward the centre. Most polyps are not cancerous.
The early stages of colorectal cancer generally present no symptoms, which is why screening is so important. As a tumour grows, it may bleed or obstruct the intestine.
See your doctor if you have any of these warning signs:
- bleeding from the rectum
- blood in the stool or in the toilet after having a bowel movement
- dark or black stools
- a change in the shape of the stool
- cramping or discomfort in the lower abdomen
- an urge to have a bowel movement when the bowel is empty
- constipation or diarrhoea that lasts for more than a few days
- decreased appetite
- unintentional weight loss
Timely evaluation of symptoms consistent with colorectal cancer is essential, even for adults younger than age 50, among whom colorectal cancer incidence is rare, but increasing.
Screening Saves Lives
Screening has the potential to prevent colorectal cancer as it can detect precancerous growths, called polyps, in the colon and rectum. Several different screening tests can be used to find polyps or colorectal cancer.
Although most polyps will not become cancerous, removing them can prevent cancer from occurring.
Regular screening increases the likelihood that polyps that do develop into cancer will be detected at an early stage, when it is more likely to be cured. This also means treatment would be less extensive and recovery would be faster.
The following recommended screening guidelines can reduce the risk of developing colorectal cancer:
- maintaining a healthy body weight
- engaging in regular physical activity
- eating a well-balanced diet
- limiting alcohol consumption
- not smoking
People at high risk of developing colorectal cancer may need earlier or more frequent tests than other people.
High Risk Factors Include:
- family history of colorectal polyps or colorectal cancer
- inflammatory bowel disease
- genetic syndrome such as familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) or hereditary non polyposis colorectal cancer.
Talk to your doctor about when to begin your screening and how often you should be tested.
Types of Screening
To help diagnose the cause of your symptoms you will probably be advised to have a lower gastrointestinal endoscopy.
There are two types of tests to choose from:
- Colonoscopy
- 'Flexible Sigmoidoscopy' / 'Proctosigmoidoscopy'
Both these tests allow the Endoscopist to have a clear view of your inside and enable him/her to diagnose the true cause of your symptoms.
For these tests to be successful your colon must be clean of all waste material that is usually found in the intestines.
Patients will be given detailed instructions about how to prepare for their test. It is important to follow all instructions carefully to ensure accurate test results.
If you are on any medication at the time, the doctor will guide you as to whether you should still take these in the days leading up to your screening procedure.
Hospital Stay
How long you stay in hospital will depend on the procedure you will be having and on whether you choose to be sedated for your test. If you prefer to be sedated then please allow for a stay of anything from 2-4 hours in total. If you choose not to be sedated then your stay will be much shorter.
The Endoscopist will be able to explain your test results after the procedure, once you are fully alert. If a biopsy was taken or if polyps were removed then these will have to be sent to the laboratory and results can be expected within one week.
Like any tests, there are risks involved, but adverse reactions are very rare. Please be sure to contact us if you are in any pain in the hours or days following your test.

Replacing Your 720p iTunes Video with 1080p
With the introduction of 1080p HD video support in iTunes last year, in many cases users now have the choice of two different HD resolutions when purchasing and viewing content from the iTunes Store. The good news is that Apple considers the 720p and 1080p versions of HD content to be the same purchase to meet the gradually increasing the amount of content available in the higher resolution. So if you have older 720p TV shows and movies sitting around in your iTunes library, you can very easily replace it to the 1080p simply by downloading it from your iTunes Purchase history to watch on an iPad.
iTune by default is set to purchase, download, and playback HD content in 720p. To upgrade your 720p iTunes video to 1080p, you must follow the steps below:
- Download the latest version of iTunes. You can download iTunes for free here.
- From the iTunes menu, choose iTunes > Preferences > Playback (for PC, choose Edit > Preferences > Playback).
- Next to "Preferred Video Version" set your preference to High Difinition 1080p.
- Click OK
- Now, simply go into the iTunes Store and select the "Purchases" link near the top-right corner.
You can access a list of all of your previously purchased movies and TV shows from here, and any that are available for re-download in the higher resolution will show an iCloud download icon beside them instead of the word "Downloaded".

The new estimate by the Public and Commercial Services Union (PCS) of the tax gap for 2013/14 has been rejected by HMRC as "flawed and muddled",
The PCS claims that reductions in estimates of tax avoidance and tax debt have been offset by a significant increase in the estimated tax loss from evasion.
Stuart Coleman, Manager of the Tax Department of ABDS comments:
"The PCS report shows that tax evasion costs our economy more than £80bn a year, and they call upon the Government to "tighten up legislation and reverse the counterproductive cuts in HMRC staffing"."
An HMRC spokesperson said: "The PCS tax gap estimate is over-inflated, flawed and muddled. The IMF has endorsed HMRC's estimate of the gap at £35bn, which is in line with the Code of Practice for Official Statistics. Since 2011, we have brought in £60bn from tackling tax dodging alone.
"Ninety per cent of all tax liabilities are paid and the vast majority of UK taxpayers, both large and small, pay their dues. HMRC's ability to collect what's due is improving, which even the PCS recognises. We are not complacent and will continue to exert maximum downward pressure on the tax gap."

text: A few notes on writing multiplayer games Dan Kegel Nov '98 I'm a programmer who has had the pleasure of working on a few popular multiplayer games written by Activision; the first two I worked on were Mechwarrior 2: Netmech DOS, and its followon Mechwarrior 2: Mercnet DOS. I was mostly responsible for getting the networking up and running after somebody else designed it. I ended up writing a DirectPlay clone for DOS, MacOS, Win32, and Linux. I also learned that there's a lot more to game networking than DirectPlay functionality. Mercnet Mercnet is a 3d giant robot combat simulation, where each player pilots a giant robot which strides around the world, possibly with teammates, accomplishing the various objectives of the mission (inspect an enemy building, blow up an enemy vehicle, etc.) in the face of often overwhelming opposition. The game is derived from a role-playing game from FASA, and a lot of the richness of the game comes from the original. The successful player learns quickly how to customize their 'Mech to have a good blend of weapons, armor, and other equipment, and learns the tactics specific to online play (e.g. leading the target to compensate for network lag, and the manoever called the Circle of Death). Observations based on experience, in no particular order Chat is very important- but it won't be used if it isn't well-designed. Get onto a few of the successful systems, like Kali, and see how people use the chat there. Don't fall into the trap of making chat an afterthought. Bullies who enjoy bothering others are far more common that I imagined. These people's behavior can quickly render a chat area useless. Chat rooms need a way for people to ignore bullies. More subtle forms of harassment in chat rooms can also be a problem, e.g. impersonation. This bothers the serious league player more than the casual player. The only way to solve this may be to have a password server, and make people log in before playing. Users love to be able to edit their player names and game names to indicate their clan or league affiliation, their current kill count, or their mood. Don't take that away from them. Many companies will be tempted to rush multiplayer games out the door without fully understanding the key problems unique to online gaming. Games which don't solve these problems well - or which crash - will not be blockbusters, so it's in game companies' interest to get it right. Anyone who really knows how to do it right is probably very valuable. Players get upset if they fire at somebody, see it hit, but no damage. This happens in Mercnet because visual effects like explosions are computed locally, but damage is computed on the target's computer. This kind of situation happens far more often in the field than in the lab; it's caused by two different effects: packet loss, which causes the weapons data to not reach the target computer, and packet latency, which may cause the weapons data to be misinterpreted on the target computer because it arrived too late. Don't be sensitive to single packet loss. Figure out a way to compensate for lost weapons packets - either make it clear to the user the packet didn't get through (the client/server approach), or use redundancy (you are sending that weapons info out to more than one computer, so...) Manage use of bandwidth carefully. Using more bandwidth than is really available overloads the network, and causes increased latency and packet loss. For action games which do dead reckoning, and which broadcast a fixed size packet at a fixed interval, the interval should be a function of the average latency; that way, as the latency (i.e. modem backlog) goes up, the game adapts, and sends less data; this reduces the network overload, and thus reduces latency. Budget about a man-month to optimize this. Better yet, assign a programmer full time to making sure the game handles packet loss and latency without degrading the user's experience. Test with simulated packet loss and latency! It's quite easy to throw in three lines of code in your game to simulate 10% packet loss on reception. If your game can't deal well with that level of packet loss, you are going to have problems in the real world. Test with a mix of fast (e.g. cable modem) and slow (e.g. 20kbps modem) connections in the same game. This is a common situation in the real world. If your game is not good at adapting to available bandwidth, the slow interfaces will get more laggy (have increased latency) as the game goes on. If your game is sensitive to single packet loss, the slow machines will be the first to start dropping packets, which can cause them to seem invulnerable if the packets being dropped are weapons packets. If you have a game design that can cover for lost packets, don't use an ordered reliable packet delivery service like TCP for anything time-critical. A single packet retransmission can really bog you down. Some third-party gaming networks use TCP by default- beware. Test! If possible, write a regression test for each interesting module, and each interesting core behavior of the multiplayer engine. For instance, come up with a regression test that proves that you are insensitive to packet loss or latency. If it can be automated, so much the better. The developer should test in the target environment. If the game is supposed to support eight dialup Internet users on Pentium 133's with 16 megabytes of RAM, the developer should have free access to a bay of eight of those machines, and should verify himself that the game can launch and play successfully with the max number of players before sending the game down to the testers. If the programmer doesn't do this, failure is almost assured. Beware lowered expectations! If the people testing your game expect a certain problem (e.g. long load time, poor multiplayer accuracy), they won't report it. Ideally, there should be an experienced programmer leading the testing effort, so he or she can tell when the emperor has no clothes. Don't send out anything with known crash bugs to beta testers. You will get no useful information back; all the testers will report about are the known crashes, even if you ask them not to. Get bigger disks. The developer's machine should have as much disk space as the developer can possibly imagine using, and then some. Eight gigabytes is about right these days. Same goes for the test machines. This will cost you peanuts, and will save you juggling time later. Links The articles at www.gamasutra.com, the online organ of Game Developer magazine, are full of useful tips. My Mechwarrior page has a bit of info which may be of interest. The Activision Game Server FAQ may also be of interest.

Critique of Andrew Keen's The cult of the amateur
Deciding upon the manner of my response to Mr Keen's book required much, much more time than composing the response itself. It's truly seductive to be scathing about the The Cult of the Amateur. Making an inventory of the book's sloppy argumentation, its fallacious reasoning, its myopic stance, its uncritical praise of copyright, its unwitting foot soldiery of the entertainment industry, its selective choice of facts and its misquotations would be quite to the point – especially since Mr Keen accuses 'today's internet' of being unwitting foot soldiers, sloppy, myopic, uncritical, selective, misrepresentative and fallacious.

The Republican National Convention is not only an honor for the host cities, but it also brings in a whole lot of dollars for the local economy. On March 3, the list of cities nominated to host the Republican National Convention in 2016 and officially vault the Republican nominee for president into the spotlight was narrowed down to eight different major metropolitan areas around the United States. However, there are four others that fell off the list that may have also been good to consider for the next presidential election—or perhaps a future convention. Consider the following list of the 12 best potential host cities along with the pros of each.
Actual Nominees:
12. Cleveland, Ohio
Cleveland is a city that is 69 percent Democrat, but it is in the ever-critical swing state of Ohio and is considered by political experts to be a must-win in most elections for the presidency. The Republican National Committee (RNC) had their convention in Cleveland in 1976 and in 1924, when they nominated Calvin Coolidge, who ultimately became president.
11. Cincinnati, Ohio
The second Ohio city to be nominated as the site for the Republican National Convention in 2016 was the birthplace of past president William Howard Taft. Cincinnati hosted the convention all the way back in 1876, when the RNC nominated Rutherford B. Hayes, who later won the presidency.
10. Columbus, Ohio
The third city in Ohio to be nominated as a possible convention host is a real dark horse, but those within the city believe they are ready for prime time. Unbeknownst to many outside of Ohio, Columbus is the most populous city in the state, yet it has never hosted a Republican National Convention in its history.
9. Denver, Colorado
A booming city full of young, coastal professionals and a strong Latino population, Denver is a prime place for the RNC to win back some of the voters in those demographics. They would also be holding their convention in the same city that bookended the eight years Obama has been president and would be nominating their president in the same place Obama was put on the Democratic ticket in 2008.
8. Kansas City, Missouri
Kansas City has a storied past as a site for the RNC throughout American history, always with good results. It is also a swing state these days, with nearly half of the population leaning Democrat, though it should be a state that votes Republican. That could change if the RNC holds its convention there.

The myth that rainforests are vital to the earth is damaging policy-making and the search for scientific truth, says Philip Stott
Do we really need rainforests? For the Greens that is a rhetorical question. The juggernaut of the green myth of deforestation through human carelessness and greed was set rolling long ago.
Since the 1960s, this myth has been enhanced by the addition of a gamut of scientific and morality myths, all aiming to persuade us that the rainforest is vital for maintaining the stability and balance of the earth - indeed, for our very survival on this planet.
Are the forests not "the lungs of the earth", "the living sinks" that will help to buffer our human excesses of carbon dioxide emissions as we recklessly warm the atmosphere, the richest remaining "library" of genetic resources for us to use?
The false idea that forest is the normal clothing of the earth has many roots. Above all, it reflects the twin birth of the science of ecology and the religion of environmentalism, which sprang from late19th-century Romanticism in Germany, England and Massachusetts. "Nature endeavours to keep the Earth clothed with wood of some kind," wrote Henry David Thoreau.
This is, of course, nonsense. Even if we ignore the fact that vast oceans, dry grasslands and deserts dominate the continents, and have long done so, tropical savannahs occupy only around one-third of the land surface of the earth. Yet the tenets of ecologism were idiosyncratically derived from the very few parts of the world characterised by wooded domains.
This idea of the ancient forest came to be deeply imbued in European colonial officials, so much so that they instinctively assumed that any non-forested land must have been originally "forested" and later cleared by fire and man. We now know that most such areas have not carried a "forest" for millions of years.
At the end of the last Ice Age, only some 12,000 to 18,000 years ago, the tropics that are today occupied by these "ancient cathedrals" were seasonal savanna grasslands, both cooler and much drier than now. There were no rainforests in the Malay Peninsula and much of Amazonia, and, despite the increasing human development of forested space, there are still more rainforests now than there were then.
The whole farrago of scientific gobbledegook becomes painfully obvious in the myths of the rainforest as the lungs of the world. What do lungs do? They gulp in oxygen and give out carbon dioxide. If the rainforests are indeed the lungs of the world, they should surely be cut down as quickly as possible! If you truly want trees to take up carbon, you require newly planted, vigorous young plantations.
The myth is exposed. Rainforests are not at all essential for maintaining the ecological balance of the earth. We no more need trees than we did the forests of Europe, largely cleared by the 17th century.
Some people, especially in the rich countries of the North, may like rainforests, while others may psychologically need them as part of their own romantic New Age agenda. But these are different matters.
The innate danger of the rainforest myth is that it has grown into a myth. Moreover, it is founded on a series of little green lies, or "great green whoppers", as one of my academic colleagues calls them. These not only deny the fundamental search for truth in science, but, far more seriously, they warp policy-making with regard to the developing world.
Philip Stott is professor of biogeography, School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London. His monograph Tropical Rainforest is published this month by the Institute of Economic Affairs.

Truth to nature: mixed media landscapes
Weekend-long practical course
Short course
● Fully booked
- 28 April 2018, 10.30am — 5.30pm
- 29 April 2018, 10.30am — 5.30pm
Truth to nature: mixed media landscapes
The tradition of landscape painting will be the inspiration for creating unique and colourful artworks using mixed media – including paint, collage and photo montage – led by practising artist Grace Adam.
Since the foundation of the Royal Academy of Arts in 1768, Academicians such as Thomas Gainsborough, John Constable and Joseph Mallord William Turner have attempted to address the changing meaning of "truth to nature" and ideas around beauty, the sublime and the picturesque through landscape painting.
The term "truth to nature" came to prominence in the first of a five-volume publication titled Modern Painters, written by the eminent art critic and philanthropist John Ruskin in 1843. Primarily written to defend the later works of JMW Turner, Ruskin argued that the principal role of the artist was "truth to nature"; that being, the accurate depiction of nature in art.
"Wherever Turner gives blue, there he gives atmosphere; it is air, not object. Blue he gives to his sea; so does nature; – blue he gives, sapphire-deep, to his extreme distance; so does nature; – blue he gives to the misty shadows and hollows of his hills; so does nature: but blue he gives not, where detail and illuminated surface are visible; as he comes into light and character, so he breaks into warmth and varied hue; nor is there in one of his works, and I speak of the Academy pictures especially, one touch of cold colour which is not to be accounted for, and proved right and full of meaning."
Modern Painters, John Ruskin, 1843
In this dynamic two-day workshop, participants will investigate collage, photo montage, drawing and painting techniques, working from very small to large scale to create images in response to landscape, nature and the seasons. Taking inspiration from the historic collection at the Royal Academy, as well as looking at contemporary studies, the theme of landscape will be explored in its broadest sense.
This course will take place inside, in the Royal Academy's historic Life Room.
● Fully booked
● Cancelled
- 28 April 2018, 10.30am — 5.30pm

About the tutor
Grace Adam
Grace Adam trained initially as a painter. She has an M.A. in Sculpture and Installation from Chelsea College of Arts, where she was subsequently a Fellow, and where she now teaches the history and theory of studio practice on the Spatial Design programme. Grace regularly films reviews of contemporary shows for The Art Channel. Recent reviews include Dalí / Duchamp, Jasper Johns, Chris Offili and Louise Bourgeois.
She works across drawing, painting, sculpture and installation, and is particularly interested in our environments; how we build, negotiate and use them. She shows regularly, with exhibitions and residencies in London and further afield. Recent shows include Views & Vistas and Out of the Woods, London, both supported by Arts Council England and UAL Research Funding. Recent residencies include Banff Centre for the Arts, Canada, HMP Prison Gartee, Gibberd Rooms, Harlow New Town and St Giles Church, London.
About the space
The Life Room
The Royal Academy's historic Life Room sits at the heart of the RA Schools. Usually closed to the public, this unique and significant space was designed in the 1860s, when the galleries and art school first moved to Burlington Gardens.
The semi-circular seating arrangement, based on an ancient design, traces its British history back to Hogarth's Academy in St Martin's Lane, c.1730. Directional light is used to enhance the delineation of the model's musculature and aid life drawing, which has been practised in this room by generations of Royal Academy artists and students.
Our courses and classes programme
Our programme of short courses and classes offers the opportunity to explore a range of subjects, led by expert tutors and practising artists.

years back diesel vehicles were not taken as ideal choices. The
concept was that such cars need higher levels of maintenance and come
with good number of expenditures. However present diesels are very
different as they are not much expensive and don't ask for any kind
of maintenance. Some years back Swift Diesel was introduced by Maruti
and the perception regarding it was that 6 lakhs will be wasted on
its purchase, but the concept changed sooner and now there is
improved demand for diesel cars. Presently all manufacturers are
making efforts for taking benefits from the demand of diesel.
Sometime back SX4 diesel was introduced. Honda is getting dull
because of the fact that its major models don't have diesel
of the fans of automobiles might have seen the Hollywood movie
Transformers. Interesting point is that it has an Indian association
in the shape of the charming and stylish Chevrolet
Spark. Without any doubt for the consumers of Indian marketplace Chevrolet
Spark is a vehicle that looks handsome and stylish. The launching of this
amazing car was carried out in year 2010 in the month of January.
Spark took no time in getting popular and thousands turned towards it
in no time and three months after its release estimated that 11755
cars were sold. But after sometime a reduction in sales was noted and
within next three months only 9293 cars were sold. Well this is also
something which is indeed surprising to majority because many aspects
related with this car were in its favor like apparently it looks
stylish, the inside is sporty and the level of tools is also great
above all engine is brilliant. The rates associated with this vehicle
are also decent as they start with 3.5 lakh rupees. It will not be
wrong to mention that for those who are energetic spark comes with
great pricing packages.
have discussed this above that sales data is presenting something
different. The worst sale month for this vehicle has been July of the
year 2010 as only 1722 cars were sold, but March of the same year was
pretty decent because 48007 cars were sold. These numbers are not
convincing when compared with opponents of Chevrolet, but manufacture
has figured out a solution and is working on it. Spark, which uses
diesel for getting power is in its completion stages and will be in
market soon. This is definitely going to improve sales. You can
consider the example of Nissan Micra after the introduction of diesel
models sales have witnessed a good increase. Keeping in consideration
these aspects one can say that once the diesel version will be
introduced Spark will witnesses a great increase in level of sales.
So it can be expected that Spark will become a better seller than
Volkswagen Polo as well as Maruti Ritz. But only time will tell that
what can happen.

C. D. Platt Plow Works (former), 201 East Fifth Street (later Lanpher Auto Works)
ListenC. D. Platt Plow Works was established in 1873 to manufacture plows with equipment brought to Carthage from another plow manufacturer in Des Monies, Iowa, and by 1880, about 200 plows were made a month. However C. D. Platt's son Cornelius B. Platt, business man and blacksmith, teamed up with J. P. Leggett, a mold specialist, and began production of bed springs. It is from this location at 5th and Grant Streets that "Leggett-Platt Combination Spring Bed" factory started in 1883.
The manufacturer soon out grew this facility and by 1892 moved to a new factory located on Second Street between Maple and Lyon. Production continued there until the mid-1920s when the plant was moved to Central Avenue. Today's Leggett & Platt, Inc., "produces a diverse array of products that can be found in most homes, vehicles, and offices." It is "made up of seventeen business units, has 21,00 employee-partners, and 130 facilities in nineteen countries." (1 & 2)
ListenOnce Leggett and Platt left this structure at Fifth and Grant, various other manufacturers where located here several dealing with wagons and carriages. By 1905 the Lanpher Brothers Carriage Works moved in and for about ten years manufactured carriages, assembled Ford automobiles and made their own trucks and autos.
Later this location also became incorporated into the Smith Brothers Manufacturing Company complex of buildings from Grant to Howard Streets (See Clio entry for Smith Brothers). In 2000 when Leggett & Platt, Inc. purchased the Big Smith property, Leggett & Platt in fact bought back its original location of the C. D. Platt plow factory where bed springs, the initial product of the company, started production.

Hello and welcome to Toku Toy Store. You're here because you want to know a little more about our shop, so let's tell you all about us…
What is Toku Toy Store?
Toku Toy Store, launched in January 2015, is a toy store that specialises in tokusatsu toys, collectables, accessories and miscellanea. We find exclusive, rare or one-off items from all around the world, bring them onto British soil to be picked up by collectors and children alike.
Who is behind Toku Toy Store?
Toku Toy Store is owned and operated by Jeremy Walker. A toy collector himself, Jeremy launched Toku Toy Store in an attempt to provide a service for people like him.

Toku Toy Store have also accelerated the release of the latest Power Rangers toys in the UK, which normally don't hit stores until months after the show has aired on television.

Let us make a simple calculation: 280 thousand cash registers. Monthly fee, if the unofficial evidence is correct, should be 28 million UAH. Of these, about 8.4 million will go to the account of acquirer. Operating costs will be small - acquirer is responsible for the technical support of servers and software. 30 UAH for each cash register, if the scheme is implemented in practice and the numbers become official - this will be, in fact, royalty, net income of the project. 8.4 million UAH per month, or over 100 million a year at a penny operation cost ... Good money. Similarly, the issue has not been elucidated regarding the provider, the planned share for connection is also extremely profitable. And if we get a share of the service organization ... I'm sorry, but why should the Ukrainian businessmen have to pay this money?
Another Scam from NBU - Entrepreneurs will be Robbed by New Cash Registers
Tax officials want to know how much money a business makes "on the spot".
Another innovation in the tax system in the country - in 2013, the introduction of cash register equipment with electronic control tape caused a wave of panic among Ukrainian businessmen . No wonder, because in Ukraine there are 152 thousand entities, using about 280 thousand of cash registers, and they will be merged into the system. Censor.NET figures out the essence of the reform and how the Tax Service and the NBU are planning to monitor this time.
The situation was explained to the chief of department of the tax control of Ministry of Income Serhii Krukhmalev: The practice of using electronic control tapes is wide spread in the world - in Russia since 2002, in Slovakia since 2010, similar systems have been operating in Italy, the UK, Turkey, Canada, Georgia and other countries. The advantages are obvious for the state - it is a much better control system. However, this system creates far greater convenience for entrepreneurs.
Despite the fact that in trying to give a positive coloring to the reform, our sources at the National Bank of Ukraine claim that the secrecy of the project of the electronic control tape is due to the corrupt interests of commercial structures close to the leadership of the NBU.
One of the operators of the market agreed to tell how the authors of the scheme plan to split the profits. Under the planned scheme a monthly fee for the operation of cash registers with the modem should be at least 100 UAH extra for each register. 40 of them will go to the organization serving the cash register, 30 to technical acquirer (remember these are only two - UkrCard and Interplat) and 30 - to one of the two authorized providers of communications. There is no information on tenders to connect the cash registers to the Internet in the Bulletin of Procurement.
Based on the above, the National Bank of the public shall immediately disclose all details of the project implementation of the electronic cash register tape. And regulatory authorities shall verify the legality and validity of the procedure for determining the technical acquirer, and scheduled rates for operation of new cash registers.

Australian football at crossroads with on-field optimism, off-field problems
Football in Australia finds itself at a crossroads, excited and concerned in equal measures about the future of the game, ahead of the 13th season of the A-League competition.
The sport is buzzing, given both the recent successes of the women's national team and expectations that the men's A-League competition will be seen by more people than ever before. But governance issues at the top threaten to stymie development of the professional game in a highly competitive sporting landscape.
The recent all-conquering form of the national women's team, home and away, has generated unexpectedly widespread public admiration of and affection for the Matildas. The headline coverage of their stellar efforts during the Australian Football League (AFL) and National Rugby League (NRL) finals boosted the domestic game ahead of the 2017-18 A-League season, starting on Oct. 6.
And Graham Arnold, coach of defending A-League champions Sydney FC, is unabashed in telling ESPN FC that he believes the competition is developing at such a rate that, in time, it will sit "alongside some of the top European leagues".
But the national men's team have failed to qualify automatically for the 2018 World Cup in Russia. Increasingly fewer Socceroos are now playing prominently in the top European leagues, and the national men's junior teams have been unable to secure places in the past two under-20 World Cup and Olympic tournaments.
Football Federation Australia (FFA) is also under pressure, both internally and externally, to reform the make up of its congress. It helps to decide how the sport is run across the country by electing the members of the FFA board to three-year terms, and approving changes to its constitution.
A-League clubs, state member federations and the players' association are deadlocked about the FFA's congress. It currently has 10 votes, with each of the nine state and territory federations getting one vote each, while the A-League clubs receive one collective vote. The process doesn't allow A-League, W-League and women's international team players to have a say. With only 10 votes, it is the smallest electorate of any FIFA member nation.
The governing body was told by FIFA in July that a normalising committee would remove the FFA board if an expanded congress that was adequately democratic and inclusive of more stakeholders was not agreed upon by Nov. 30. That committee, if established, will see FIFA announce an interim board to run the reform process until the congress issue is determined -- as it did in the last year or so in Cameroon, Argentina, Guinea and Greece.
Within this stand off, A-League club owners have also threatened to take FFA to court over their share of its latest TV deal worth $A346 million. That means the expansion of the league, which is a collective desire of the Australian soccer community, has been delayed till 2019-20 as more funds are needed to appease owners.
Perth Glory chief executive Peter Filopoulos believes Australian soccer has reached these crossroads because the leaders of the game haven't articulated what the football community wants.
Welcome to @PerthGloryFC Andreu#CreateDestiny #GloryIsOurs pic.twitter.com/Y2b294UDCQ— Peter Filopoulos (@peterfilopoulos) August 8, 2017
In May 2015, FFA released its Whole of Football Plan, which was a 20-year vision for soccer "to be the largest and most popular sport in Australia". As he announced the plan, FFA CEO David Gallop declared that soccer wanted to double to 15 million the number of Australians "who love, watch and play football" by 2035 -- a number that would be half of the nation's projected population. Progress has been made on that front, judged by the results of the Australian Sports Commission's official AusPlay survey, published in April. That showed soccer, once again, was the most popular sport to play in the country.
The Whole of Football Plan listed also a desire to develop "a distinctive Australian style of playing that puts national teams in contention for all FIFA and AFC championships ... national competitions that attract 75 percent of participants to support a top-tier club ... a combined pool of 3000 elite male and female players from 12 to 19 vying for future national selection and professional contracts ... and academies that provide world-class coaching so that no Australian youth needs to go overseas to find elite development".
In launching the 2016-17 A-League season, Gallop said that 10 teams were "too few" and "we want to move to 12 teams relatively quickly", but he did not present a timeline for expansion. The governing body told ESPN FC this month that the A-League must have a new funding model before new franchises could join the competition.
"Without a new A-League operating model, sustainable expansion of the league will be very difficult, without diluting the funding to existing owners," an FFA spokesperson said. "Furthermore, dreams of a viable, national second division will remain just that: dreams."
Filopoulos says, however, that the governors of the game still "need to set a clear ambition about what we want the A-League to look like in five to 20 years' time".
"In five or 10 years' time there should be 14 very successful A-League clubs playing in a vibrant competition," Filopoulos, an alumni of Melbourne's Deakin University, said. "We should clearly stake our claim as the second-most attended sport in Australia. It should be underpinned by a national second division at that point heading towards promotion and relegation beyond 10 years."
Within 20 years, Filopoulos wants to see two successful national competitions -- the A-League and a B-League, featuring promotion and relegation -- with both shown on national television.
He added: "We've got to match our ambition by building that capability. By strengthening our A-League teams, by identifying new A-League teams and working towards the creation of them."
FFA, nevertheless, is perhaps right to be cautious in its plans, as the organisation has experienced mixed fortunes with regards to expansion.
North Queensland Fury and Gold Coast United entered the league in 2008, but the former had their licence revoked in 2010 as a result of poor crowds, poor results and a lack of finances. Gold Coast initially performed strongly, making the finals in their first two seasons, but they failed to draw fans and the FFA eventually revoked the club's licence as a result of breaches of the club participation agreement. That included repeated public statements by controversial owner Clive Palmer's that brought "the A-League, FFA and the game of football into disrepute and [were] prejudicial to the interests of FFA, the A-League and the game of football in Australia".
The introduction of Melbourne Heart for the 2010-11 season, and Western Sydney Wanderers who were fast-tracked ahead of the 2012-13 campaign to replace Gold Coast, has been much more successful, creating the Melbourne and Sydney Derby as marquee games.
Western Sydney Wanderers have reached three Grand Finals, and won the 2014 AFC Champions League.
The City Football Group acquired Melbourne Heart in 2014 for $A12 million, and rebranded the club as Melbourne City. They went within one game of the 2016 Grand Final, with players like Aaron Mooy producing excellent attacking football.
City and the Wanderers have each drawn new fans to the A-League, seemingly without cannibalising the support of their respective crosstown rivals, Melbourne Victory and Sydney FC.
The 2016-17 season saw healthy average crowds once again topping 12,000 per game -- including a record 61,880 fans at the first Sydney derby of the season. That record for an Australian domestic soccer crowd at ANZ Stadium trumped attendances at the previous month's AFL qualifying final derby between the Sydney Swans and GWS Giants (60,222) and the showcase State of Origin III rugby league fixture between New South Wales and Queensland (61,267) in July.
The A-League's attendance numbers still lag behind those of the powerhouse AFL and NRL competitions, but there is room to grow. Soccer has a great opportunity this season to overtake the crowds of Australia's Super Rugby after the poor returns of the nation's five rugby franchises in 2017.
The A-League certainly has a pre-engaged audience for spectators, and potential players for future expansion plans. The AusPlay survey reported that 1,104,815 Australians had played football between January 2016 and December 2016. The survey reported that golf, with 724,141 participants, Aussie Rules (665,470), netball (640,607) and tennis (568,248) rounded out the five most popular participation sports in Australia. It showed that soccer had more than twice as many participants as cricket (543,695), and four times as many as rugby league (236,593).
That prospective audience will also have commercial free-to-air television coverage to watch this season for the first time.
The A-League was televised exclusively on the Fox Sports network before government broadcaster SBS in 2013 won the free-to-air rights of the existing deal. SBS was limited to broadcasting the Friday night match every week until June 2017. But those fixtures were often not the high-profile games of the week, so the impact of the free-to-air broadcast was minimised.
The new deal will see Network 10 simulcast live the highest-profile Saturday fixtures, as well as all the finals, on its One channel.
As for the Socceroos, their World Cup hopes hang in the balance. They will now need to overcome a tricky two-legged playoff against Syria in Malaysia and Australia before another playoff against opponents from the CONCACAF region in November if they are to play at Russia 2018.
That means the public soccer spotlight is now firmly on the women's national team, the Matildas. They won the Asian Cup in 2010, five years before the men, and in 2015, they became the first Australian team to win a knockout game at a World Cup when they defeated Brazil.
Perth Glory and Matildas forward Sam Kerr, who also plays for Sky Blue FC in the U.S. National Women's Soccer League, believes the new W-League pay deal that delivered players a minimum $A10,000 salary, and Australia's two recent victories over Brazil, are signs of the game's growth.
"For the Matildas, it's awesome," Kerr told ESPN FC. "It's a huge moment. It means we are finally moving in the right direction and it will raise the standard of women's football."
The FFA has recognised the importance of women's football, describing it as "an integral part of our organisation". That was after the Matildas' latest home matches against Brazil saw record-breaking crowds of 15,000 in Penrith and almost 17,000 in Newcastle.
To put those numbers into context, they each topped the 14,865 fans who attended AFL expansion club GWS Giants' first-ever home final at Spotless Stadium the same night as the Matildas played in Penrith. That Giants crowd figure was the lowest for an AFL finals match since 1916, but was still more than the club's season average of 13,195.
The FFA is now working with member federations "to increase the number of female coaches and improve facilities for females". It has announced Matildas' matches against China in Melbourne, as it seeks to build further momentum to support its intention to bid to host the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup.
More immediately, however, the Matildas' performances have added to the excitement, ahead of the new A-League season.
The opening round features a blockbuster game of the week, with Melbourne Victory hosting Sydney FC in a replay of last season's Grand Final. It is the perfect fixture to showcase the best of the A-League, just one week after the AFL and National Rugby League competitions stage their own Grand Finals.
FFA and club officials can expect the Victory-Sydney fixture to draw a 30,000-strong crowd to Etihad Stadium in Melbourne, and they likely will be disappointed if the Melbourne Derby at the same venue on Oct. 14 does not match last season's 43,000, and if the Sydney Derby another seven days later in round three does not sell out the 45,000-capacity Allianz Stadium.
The action off the field will be just as intriguing, with FIFA's shadow looming over Australian soccer, and various stakeholders looking to have a greater say. But "we have got a lot of smart people in the game", says Filopoulos.
"If we all sat down in a room and debated all the issues that plague the sport we'd find a lot of solutions. And that's the biggest elephant in the room: How we go about building towards that ambition," he concluded.

TASMANIA: The Child Friendly State, held the first Australian No Smacking Day on April 30, 2003.
Patmalar Ambikapathy the Children's Commissioner, HOBART Tasmania spoke to Gregory Kable a caseworker at Justice Action at the Controlling Crime Conference at Redfern in Sydney yesterday and we both realised how parallel our ideas about crime prevention were.
Justice Alistair Nicholson of the Family Court of Australia,
"Smacking a child ought to be seen as assault," he said.
So if it's a crime to punish children, or adults for that matter, then the punishment is the crime. Punishment, threats and smacking only get short-term results, if any result at all.
Long term results are gained by the following practice:
1) Inviting children or adults in the decision making process means you learn more about them.
2) Allowing children or adults to come up with an idea about how they can help you solve the problem they may be causing you or others.
a) will ensure they are not being judged by you or others
b) will ensure they are not wrongly blamed by you or others
c) If they think of a way they can help you they will also have an obligation to do what it was they suggested because it was their idea.
Simple as ABC!
Justice Action believes that we get more support preventing people going to jail than we do trying to get people out of jail. Prevention is better than cure.
You can help plant this seed so that 5 per cent of Australians don't go to jail and learn effective ways to solve a problem, they may be having with you or with other people.
Furthermore, we don't need jails, we need Universities. It's a child's right to be educated. The community will save lives and money by teaching people not to smack children or adult, in order to solve a problem, they may be having with children or adults.
The savings and benefits from this policy will provide free education, because we're not spending money on police (domestic violence) and prisons (violence). As well as keeping people out of hospitals. The potential results may be a long way off, but in the grand scheme of things, there will be a lot less violence in the community.
This day has been celebrated overseas and now it is New South Wales and it's the rest of Australia's turn to follow international best practice, and show our children and young people that we do value them.
We would like to invite all children, young people, families, members of the community and workers to celebrate this day Nationally, in whatever way they wish.
When launched, Justice Action will discuss "alternatives to physical punishment" and be available for interviews. For the first time NSW we will have a Statewide No Smacking Day on a date to be fixed? Working in cooperation with the NSW Childrens' Commissioner I hope?
Otherwise Justice Action will go it alone. After all life is community service!
Many parents worry about violence in our society. As parents, we may not realise that we are contributing to the problem of violence by our example of hitting children. Hitting children teaches them that violence wins! The more we hit children, the more likely they are to become bullies, to hit friends and family members, and to hit spouses and their children when they are adults.
This will be the first international No-Smacking Day in NSW. The observance seeks to bring a much-needed focus on ending corporal punishment of children and helping parents develop effective non-violent alternatives.
It's time for strongly promoting alternatives to physical punishment of children. On a date to be fixed Gregory Kable and Justice Action hopefully with the NSW Childrens Commissioner will call on all parents to consider breaking the habit of hitting children and seek out non-violent alternatives, through reading, talking with friends, children and partners, and participating in community parenting programs.
Hitting people is wrong, and children are people too. This is the day to begin to break the habit of hitting children.

States to cooperate on school curriculums but social skills don't rate? State and territory education ministers say Federal Education Minister Brendan Nelson's heavy-handed threats to school funding will not assist their ambitious initiative to develop consistent school curriculum's in key subjects. [?]
School Curriculum needs balance? Life Skills and Academic Skills go hand in hand man Colin you need to be the students friends not their judge. Only when you can invite the students into the decision making process will you get an obligation by them to change their behaviour, because you Colin could lead by example and not by power.
NSW education professor warns further commitment needed
The author of a report on the New South Wales education system has urged the major political parties to do more for education in the election campaign.
Fiona Stanley, the children's crusader
It is all about prevention. As Fiona Stanley sees it, with one in five Australian teenagers experiencing significant mental health problems, there are just not enough treatment services to cope with the demand.
Parents call for feedback on social skills
Parents are calling for the same level of feedback on their children's social development as on their academic progress, according to a national survey.
The Seed
Respect, you only get out what you have put in. What about Life Skills, Communication and Conflict Resolution. Evolution, perhaps some children and adults miss the whole or part of the course. I did, and so how surprised do you think I was when I realised my parents missed the course as well. Things like Compromise, Win Win, Empathy, and Love. Invisible energy and other skills like public speaking, how to Relate, Assuming, Blaming, Forgiveness, Freedom and Discrimination. This is how I learned respect. If you don't know what it is then how do you relate?
The punishment: Is the 'crime'
The punishment is the crime according to retired chief Justice of the Family Court of Australia Justice Alistair Nicholson. "Smacking a child ought to be seen as assault".
Australian prisons are fast becoming the new asylums of the third millennium. The prison industry is booming, while Australia spends far less on mental health services than similar countries.

For Rewire (then RH Reality Check)
Alyssa Chiampi, 20, arrived at Western Oregon University determined to figure out who she was and what she wanted out of life. Up to that point, she says, her religious upbringing in Medford, Oregon, four hours away had given her a narrow view of sexuality and identity.
"Being raised very Christian, conservative, my only thought about the LGBT community was they were weird, wrong, gross—because of who they were," she told Rewire.
Last year, while still a freshman at WOU, she determined that she was pansexual and started getting involved in student leadership organizations and advocacy groups, including the Triangle Alliance, an LGBTQI advocacy group. Privately, she struggled to reconcile her newfound sexual identity with her identity as a faithful Christian. A few months ago, she came out to her sister, who outed her to her mother without her consent. Her mother then asked her to meet with a therapist in her hometown who could "fix" her.
Chiampi was one of the 22 people, including mental health professionals as well as other survivors, who testified before the Oregon legislature earlier this year in favor of proposed legislation that would ban licensed therapists from using their practices to try and change, "cure," or "fix" minors who identify as LGBTQ. The Oregon legislation, which passed out of the state house of representatives last week and is now before the senate, is one of 17 bills currently before state legislatures that would ban so-called conversion therapy. (One bill, which died in Oklahoma's legislature this spring, sought to prevent it from being banned.) Most are similar to the Oregon law, and to those passed in California, New Jersey, and Washington, D.C., in recent years: They specifically address licensed therapists who treat minors, using the state's licensing boards as enforcers.
Activists are heartened by the trend. Still, some point out that the the raft of laws legislatures are currently considering don't address all the ways conversion therapy is actually practiced—which can include "treatment" for dependent patients over the age of 18, or from members of the clergy or other non-licensed individuals.
Read the rest at Rewire.

The big thing we did today though was take a trip to Bethlehem! One of the local churches set up a huge event where you could tour "Bethlehem". It was excellent. They had tents set up like it was a market, and activities for the children to do at each one. All the helpers were dressed up, and they even had donkeys for the kids to pet! Needless to say, it was a hit. The kids got to meet Mary and Joseph, which Naomi thought was cool. I'm so glad we went because it went along perfectly with everything we have been learning about.
Naomi working on her Joseph. She has really gotten into making these ornaments. I hope I'm not setting an expectation for crafts every day in the new year!! Shew!
Joseph! Naomi said, "I'm glad I'm making a Joseph. I think Mary was getting a little lonely."
Mr. Cuteness.
Naomi at the market in Bethlehem. At this station she made a pillow.
Here they got to pet the donkeys. This was a major highlight!
Nathan LOVED the donkeys, and wanted to pet them so badly, but just couldn't work up the courage.
Here we were doing a mosaic together. Nathan doesn't last long at the crafts but he wants to join in and do everything big sister does.
We have been thoroughly enjoying our Truth in the Tinsel study. I'm so glad we're doing it. Tonight was the perfect way to top off a great week of activities.

Israel steps closer to 1,500 new settlements in East Jerusalem• RT.com
The plan to expand settlements in Ramat Shlomo was first filed in 2010 and initially stipulated the construction of 1,700 houses. However, back then Israeli authorities were forced to suspend their intentions after Joe Biden's visit to Tel Aviv as the plan met vast condemnation.
The recent announcement comes just weeks after Israel, frustrated by the Palestinians success in winning UN recognition at the end of November, authorized the building of 3,000 new settlements in Jerusalem and the West Bank. In response to that a number of European countries summoned their Israeli ambassadors to convey their disapproval and concerns.
"The approval of this program is an important and positive step for the Interior Ministry, in order to improve the housing issue while simultaneously strengthening Jerusalem," the Jerusalem Post quoted the minister.

Meet My Family: Roman aka Dad
Wednesday, June 28, 2017
"I mean, I look at my dad. He was twenty when he started having a family, and he was always the coolest dad. He did everything for his kids, and he never made us feel like he was pressured. I know that it must be a great feeling to be a guy like that."
- Adam Sandler
Dad / Dada Bing Bong
My dad was a natural at this. Most people get awkward taking pictures in public, hell, I still awkward sometimes! But he didn't even care and went all in!
Favorite Memory: One time my dad took me and my younger sister to Denny's (where he worked) and he went into the big walk-in freezer to grab something. My sister ended up closing the door on him when he walked in and we didn't know what to do. So we just walked away and left him in there!
First Memory: My dad would come to a lot of my field trips when I was younger. There was one time on a ski trip, he was going down a hill with me and then we see my best friend hanging off the side of the cliff, and just waves hi to us as we ski past her. Just the confusion of it all was too funny!
Nicknames: Dada Boogie Bing Bong
Secret Skills: He's the most amazing chef I know. He used to be a chef when we were younger and would make all kinds of different stuff for us, depending on where he worked! He's also a very talented Emma Bunton aka Baby Spice.
My dad was definitely in the zone when we went to go take pictures. He was a natural for this!
Go-to style inspiration: Pinterest/Harry Rosen

I enjoyed this recent post by Lisa Robinson on the blog Parchment and Pen. She writes about how Theology is More than Head Knowledge and addresses the age old attitude about how we don't need more theology we just need more people walking the walk!
Well worth the read.
Learning theology is head knowledge. It is just obtaining information. Unless, we are participating in some form of ministry and downloading the information, theology is useless.
While I would wholeheartedly agree that the tangible outworking of our faith is important, I think the statement that theology is nothing more than head knowledge is a mis-statement and does a disservice to actively pursuing the knowledge of God.
Everyone is a theologian. Everyone has a theology of some sort – Everyone. Why? Because of what theology is. It is the study of God – theo (God) plus logos (reason, wisdom or thought). Theology is reasoning about God or "God-Thought". It is how we learn about God and think about Him. To the extent that we are engaged in this task, is to the extent that we are thinking and learning about God.
Whatever methodology is employed to grasp the study of God, will shape how we think about him.
Shunning any type of theological study as just gaining head knowledge is saying that learning is not important and maybe even irrelevant.
Theology is practical. Theology is useful. Theology will be lived out, whether we participate in formalized ministry or not.
Theology is more than head knowledge – it is faith seeking understanding that should cause us to be reflective Christians that care deeply about the Christian faith enough to gather as much information as we can about it.
Grenz and Olson say it best,
Engaging in theology is finding answers to questions that arise in the course of living the Christian life in contemporary culture. Any person seeking to live as a disciple of Jesus Christ in today's world will encounter questions…[but] theology is not so much a set of pat answers to these and other similar questions as it is a way of thinking toward answers. The only alternative to honestly seeking answers is refusing to live Christianity in public and thus refusing to engage in discussions with questioning seekers. This alternative is hardly compatible with authentic Christianity.
