Learning Methods
Learning Methods - What They Mean
We offer 3 flexible ways to receive study material designed to fit around your lifestyle; Online, USB or Correspondence (paper form). The choice is yours. All three methods are tried and tested. You choose the method that best suits your circumstances and that you feel most comfortable with. The course material is the same regardless of the mode of delivery you choose. All methods allow students to have unlimited access to their personal tutor.
The online method comes as standard for all students and is our most popular method.
Online students require a reliable internet connection. Our Student Study Zone allows you to view all of your course material online, anywhere in the world. Students can watch videos, read notes and study illustrations on the computer screen then complete self assessment quizzes to gauge their learning.
Assignment submission and Self Tests are also completed online. When you enrol and payment has been received, access to the course material is available within 24 hours.
You can also download and print the online course content and create your own personal file similar to a correspondence course. In this way you avoid paying the extra cost required should you choose the course material by correspondence. What ever method of learning you decide, the courses are all portable.
USB - (E-Learning)
USB's are an excellent choice for people who have a computer but do not have internet access or have a slow connection. Your course material and interactive Self-Tests are mailed to you on a preloaded USB. You may also print the lessons/assignments and create your own personal printed folder of your choice. Online Access is also available. Assignments are submitted through the ADL Online Study Zone or through the post or by email.
Course material may be supplied in a printed format. Students work through notes, practical tasks and assignments. The student is guided by a printed study guide and accompanying materials, as well as receiving advice and feedback from tutors. Assignments are submitted to tutors for grading and feedback, and exams can be taken anywhere in the world.
Assignment submissions can be posted or emailed to us and are submitted to tutors for grading and feedback. There is an additional charge for printing, binding and posting the lesson materials in printed format (see website for details). Correspondence students also have online access (available for all students) to the course lessons.

Bought us booze and showed us to Wal-Mart: Oliver Hyman
I totally worked with that dude on American Idol last night.
If anybody watched the Charleston auditions and noticed the friendly looking fellow whose wife had a baby during the show, you'll be comforted to know that he DID NOT go to Ohio University, despite a plethora of urgent text messages suggesting otherwise.
After hours of frustrated Internet searching, I finally confirmed with my sister that he worked at my father's factory with us in the summer of '03 – you know, the summer we painted rooftops and inspected douchbags until the wee hours of the morning?!
Oliver Hyman showed us where the Ashland Wal-Mart was located, and he also bought us wine coolers a couple times during the summer. He is also the cousin of my sister's ex-boyfriend, who is named Pilot. Hilarious.
Anyway, Seth refuses to go outside in the garage to get the photo of us all on a company golf outing.
There is a guy named Tanner in the photo, and his job at the factory was to pick up cigarette butts along the sidewalk. He had a bucket with his name on it and was totally crazy. Suffice to say, we couldn't keep him under control on the golf course. Oh man, this would all be so much better for me if my husband would go out into the cold to get that photo.
Anyway, despite the narrative of the birth of his child sprinkled throughout the show, Oliver Hyman didn't advance to Hollywood.
Congratulations all the same to him and baby Emma Grace, born at 8:03 a.m.

Unfortunately, the decision from the Food and Drug Administration, which is expected tomorrow, doesn't look too promising. The FDA advisory panel voted 12-1 against recommending expanding the use of Xgeva into patients whose tumors haven't expanded beyond the primary site.
Xgeva actually passed its clinical trial testing the drug in these earlier patients, but the committee of outside experts didn't think the 4.2-month delay in the onset of bone metastasis justified the side effects.
I can't even see how this binary event is worth buying as a lottery ticket. The FDA sometimes throws out positive recommendations and rejects a drug, but an approval overruling a negative recommendation with such broad a margin would be unprecedented.
Even though tomorrow's letter from the FDA will likely be a rejection, it won't be useless. The agency should lay out what Amgen needs to do if it wants to get Xgeva approved for use in patients earlier in the prostate cancer progression. Exelixis'
If that's what it'll take to get Xgeva approved in an earlier setting, Amgen will have an uphill battle. Delaying the onset of metastasis by more than four months should translate into some benefit, but it might be too small to demonstrate in a reasonably sized trial. Dendreon's

7 Earthly Neighbors have Been Discovered…But should we even care?
March 30, 2017
Filed under Showcase
Hang on for a minute...we're trying to find some more stories you might like.
Email This Story
In a star system far, far away…astronomers have discovered not one, but seven Earth-like planets that has the potential to sustain life. These planets exists within only 42 light years away which makes them relatively close in space terms.
It's quite a discovery but the reality is much harsher than it seems. The seven planets are 40 light years away; So if one light year is equivalent to about 63,000 Earth years, 40 light years should be about 2.4 million Earth years away. Considering the fact that humans have yet to master space travel, light travel seems almost impossible and might still be for a very long time.
Even more inconvenient is understanding how these planets work. Their solar system, also known as the Trappist-1 star system, revolves around a dwarf star, Trappist-1, which is basically their version of our sun. They keyword here is dwarf. The sun's total size is around 338 quadrillion miles cubed. That's 15 zeroes! Trappist-1, the dwarf star, is only eight percent of our Sun, making it about 27 quadrillion cubed. It's still relatively large but scientists believe that in terms of biological factors, the human body will not adapt so kindly to the new and much smaller resource of light. Furthermore, the smaller size of the star also makes the 7 planets' orbital period much less than Earth's. The highest orbital period for these planets are at 12 days compared to Earth's 365 days. There are theories regarding the complexities of aging and how gravity can affect the physiology of our body. However, NASA have also stated that age could be a biological factor, meaning that it is dependent mainly through the DNA and not by the gravitational force of Earth. Humans can simply go through years with little sunlight on these planets can be extremely detrimental to their health and physicality.
Despite the overwhelming number of disappointments, it is still a milestone for all astronomers alike. We can definitely celebrate the fact that life exists elsewhere and that Earth is not a lonely planet out in the universe. Of course, harnessing the power of light and human limitations seems almost impractical but that shouldn't stop scientists and astronomers to explore the endless cosmos.

Q: Joe Plumber- What do you do for a living?
A: I'm a forester.
Q: Joe Plumber- Oh. What's a forester do?
A: A forester is a person who is engaged in forest management or conservation. I've been called a tree hugger, a timber beast, and everything in between.
Q: Joe Plumber- Oh.
A: Let me explain. As a state forester our mission is to "provide a long-term, sustainable yield of forest resources from state forest lands; improve the health and productivity of other public and private forest lands and community forest lands; and protect life, property, and natural resources from wildfires." The Minnesota Conservation Volunteer actually included an article about what state foresters do. Read more – Tree Guardians
Q: Joe Plumber- Oh, you mean a forester doesn't just walk in the woods all day and count trees?
A: Well, yes we do…. but I see your still confused. Let's dig a little deeper. It's easy to imagine what a wildlife biologist or a naturalist does, right?. They study and describe all the neat, cute little animals and plants of the world. Birds, flowers, deer, fish…. these are often strikingly beautiful and easily observable to most backyard aficionado's. But wait a minute. Let's not forget the trees!
Foresters love working with trees and learning everything about them. In fact, we love them so much that we are pleased to announce a brand new re-publication of Minnesota's Forests and Trees: A Primer. This is FREE and available just for you Joe! After reading and studying, you just might know what a forester does. You'll certainly be able to impress and educate your family, friends, and scenesters with things like:
Joe, you should also check out this new video on the one-billionth tree awaiting next year's planting!
And remember Joe- A happy white pine is a protected white pine!
... from seedling to maturity...
The timber program forester:
Now I'm going to ask you what everyone's asking me…. What do YOU do?

Two monologues done the same way and he talks about switching in and out of different characters.
He really just doesn't get it. Diabetes can't take him quick enough for my liking. More deluded fantasies from Crisco McSlobberyfuck, Arthur Kadyshes...
For most Gen Poppers, Saturday is a day of rest, relaxation, and reflection, but for The Brand, it is a day of redefining "The Biz", and making headway in The Craft and "The Journey" as I have my first on-camera kissing scene for a movie (I will blog this very soon), and a great audition for a reputable screen writer for an "Off-Broadway" Play that may give me some consideration for a lead in a future Broadway play. I met with Sharon to prepare my monologue for the audition, and I selected the monologue that my man, Anthony Hopkins delivers during Meet Joe Black, but she felt it might be good to also work in some Jeremy Grey from Wedding Crashers if they want some liveliness, comedic timing, and more attitude.
What makes me such a tremendous actor as you will see by the videos below, is that I can switch in and out of different characters and genres, and "Get In the Moment" and invest myself. "Kade Style". I am on the run today like crazy, but last night had some very interesting and hilarious things happen that I will be talking about in a soon to come blog. Ta-Ta!!
"When your dignity is bleeding, make sure your ass crack isn't sticking out"…Arthur Kade…11/07/09
Here is an acting vid with Sharon where I float "Kade Style" between 2 masterful monologues, and a great Email of a "Kater" who I think wil be a Kade Nation convert soon enough..
"Yo man, just gonna try to help you out. I would say that over half the people that write in to you are either a) Making fun of you, and they cant believe that you actually think they are serious or b) so bad at life they they find your lies as an escape. I was shown your website a few days ago, and I must say it it the most dousche bag website I have ever seen. You talk about how poular you are, yet you are always by yourself in your videos filming the videos yourself. I have yet to see any hot girls in any of your videos and for that matter any one at all. You claim to be taking hot girls or Philly 8's but you said even yourself that they last girl you brought home wasnt that hot all and was "sloppy". Im willing to bet you arent pulling Philly 8's and 9's but you are probably bottom feeding on the women the girls that are desperate for attention. So way to go. And as far as your hotel suite that was comped? It was a normal room you moron, you didnt fool anyone. If you re so big, why are you doing off broadway stuff? Newsflash, you'll never be in any movies unless the character has to have a lisp and have an ego the size of America and a penis the size of a golf tee, as you refrenced by the woman having a "grand canyon"…maybe it was you? Secondly, you should really learn how to treat women. How you talk about them makes you look like a bigger dousche bag than you already are, and believe me when I speak for "kade nation" when I say making yourself a bigger dousche bag than you already are, is a hard thing to do. You literally are the Kanye West of no bodies. And yes I did just compare you to Kanye West, except that everyone thinks Kanye is a huge dousche who likes fish sticks. I bet you like Fish Sticks? Please do everyone a favor and stop with all your non sense hype. When you accomplish something in the "biz" besides having a speech coach who looks like she also doubles in giving piano lessons to 5 year olds, by the looks of her house. Please take the advice I gave you and run with it. Very far, as far as you can away from your video camers, the internet, or anyone that is actually contributing something to our great country and not polluting it by being a waste of space.
"Arthur Kade is not a man. He is a little boy lost in a fantasy world, somewhere between Park Avenue and Rodeo"
I pray to God the next time I hear "kade out" from one of your home movies, it is the last time.
Good Luck."

Basilica di San Paolo Fuori le Mura. Basilica of St. Paul Outside the Walls is Rome's fourth great patriarchal church; it was erected over the tomb of St. Paul. The basilica fell victim to fire in 1823 and was subsequently rebuilt. This courtyard was part of the early church and was a meeting place for those who wanted to learn about Christianity. This is the second-largest church in Rome after St. Peter's.

Barcode recognition is the most efficient way to capture index data printed on documents. If you are unfamiliar with the use of barcodes in document scanning, you can learn more about barcodes in our Barcode Scanning Guide, but if you want to know more about barcode use with SimpleSoftware products, read on.
Some documents already have key information in barcode format on them. In many cases adding a barcode to a document is as simple as changing or adding a font. Adding barcodes to new documents is preferable as all the index data is on the document at the time it is created and in a format that can be read with near 100% accuracy.
As an alternative to placing barcodes on the individual documents, it is possible to print out a barcode cover page and place it on the file before it is scanned. The SimpleCoversheet application was designed to make this easy by providing a simple interface for selecting index values and printing a standard coversheet that contains these values in barcode format.
Barcode recognition can also be useful when you have documents with a variable number of pages that will all receive the same index values. If it is not possible to generate an indexed coversheet for these at the time they are created, a generic barcode coversheet can be used to separate the scanned images into multi-page files, one for each document. A second process can then be used to index these images one file at a time instead of one page at a time, greatly increasing throughput.
With SimpleIndex Barcode you can:

Forty years ago, the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI), PIM's lead center, was founded to provide research-based policy solutions to sustainably reduce poverty and end hunger and malnutrition in developing countries. On November 18, IFPRI marked the occasion with "IFPRI at 40: Looking Back, Looking Forward." The event was livestreamed and followed on Twitter at #IFPRI40.
This day-long event brought together policymakers, partners, donors, staff and alumnae, and other friends of IFPRI to discuss how food policy has evolved over the past four decades and key issues going forward. That evening, IFPRI launched the bold new global initiative, Compact2025, designed to end hunger and undernutrition by 2025. Compact2025 will work with countries to bring stakeholders together, set priorities, innovate and learn, build on successes, and synthesize sharable lessons to accelerate progress in ending hunger and undernutrition
In honor of this anniversary, IFPRI produced a series of 12 stories reflecting on its food policy research since 1975, including work on sustainable agricultural production, markets and trade, gender, nutrition, and partnerships with such key countries as Bangladesh and Ethiopia.
- Building innovative tools
- Closing the gender gap in agricultural development
- Collaborating for food security in Ethiopia
- Informing a global agenda for food security
- Investing in sustainable agricultural production
- Making agriculture work for nutrition
- Partnering for food security in Bangladesh
- Putting agriculture at the heart of development in Africa
- Setting priorities for public spending
- Social protection by design
- Unlocking markets and trade for rural development
In addition, throughout 2015 current IFPRI researchers and alumni have blogged about their work on the 40th anniversary blog series.
Congratulations to our colleagues at IFPRI -- PIM looks forward to celebrating together many more anniversaries of "Making a Difference Through Food Policy Research."

Another example of clueless and backward politicians who are ready to set the country back for their personal interests and constituencies which would rather earn off of no work than even move their hands and legs!
I had once argued that the Public Sector employees salaries are like Institutional Beggary!! The Government should close all the factories that do not and, indeed, cannot run efficiently and profitably and simply send a monthly check to those good-for-nothing employees with "Monthly Begging Cheque" written on it! Let us at least save on the other fixed and variable cost!!
This Karat idiot hasnt really understood the significance of the lack of good airports in India and how imperative it is that we get good and user friendly airports in India. Global business is not forever to stay in a country that doesn't give two hoots to it!! Sooner we understand the better it will be for all of us!!
The UPA government's Delhi and Mumbai airport restructuring plan hit an airpocket once again on Tuesday with the CPI(M), the key Left party extending outside support to the ruling alliance, asking Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to keep the project in "abeyance" until the report of the tripartite committee, set up to look into concerns raised by AAI employees, was finalised.
In a letter that he dashed off to Prime Minister on Monday evening, CPI(M) general secretary Prakash Karat said no meeting of the committee had been called yet although it was supposed to submit its report within the next three months.
"I therefore, strongly feel that the decision of the government to hand over Delhi and Mumbai airports to private players should be kept in abeyance till the report of the tripartite committee is finalised," he said, adding
"I hope you will act in the matter."
Mr Karat reminded the Prime Minister that it was in response to his appeal along with an explicit assurance from civil aviation minister Praful Patel to form the tripartite committee (comprising representatives of civil aviation ministry, AAI and Joint Employees Forum), that the strike by AAI employees was called off last month.
Mr Karat pointed out that Mr Patel had stated in his February 4 letter to the Joint Employees Forum that the committee would "look into issues and proposals of modernising airports by AAI and employee-related issues". His letter clearly indicated that the Left parties were displeased with the ministry of civil aviation seemingly taking a casual approach on the issue.

Ski teams
SKIIOT provides comprehensive equipment and analysis software leasing for professional ski and ski service teams. Our piloting line of service is the SLIDE PERFORMANCE -test of pro-level competition skis. Your team can forget about the traditional methods such as the skiing downhill in pairs. SKIIOT will provide you with consistent numerical (from 0-10) value slide performance throughout the whole of the track. This means substantial decrease and savings in time and testing workforce, while at the same time substantially increasing the reliability of the test results. This is due to the fact that slide performance will be recorded from the whole of the functioning of the track (mean), while maintaining track segmentation to get detailed info of the functioning of different skis on different parts (segments) of the track – to suit the techniques, styles, and strategies of different skiers. There is no limit to the number of ski pairs to be included in the test run.
1. At its fastest, requires only one test person and 2 minutes per one pair of skis. Also, records the slide performance of the entire track using intelligent track segmentation.
2. Easy to read value for the slide performance from 0-10, with one decimal accuracy.
3. Records the slide performance of up to 10+ pairs of skis for comparison, in one test setting
SKIIOT brings the coaching of cross-country skiing to the 21st century. A small device, weighing only 70 grams is attached to the heel of every skier in the team. Seven sensors +heart rate meter (additional heart rate belt required) work together to bring a holistic and detailed analysis of the performance of an entire team of skiers, presented as a summary of the whole team +individual performance analyses. The sensor data gathered can be divided into 1. Track and weather conditions 2. Physiological variables of the skier. SKIIOT also offers combinatory and cross-evaluative analysis between the two categories. For instance, coach can interpret the kick frequence (cadence), deterioration and change of skiing technique and heart rate change between multiple skiers when going through an ascension on track (relative altitude monitoring).
The possibilities SKIIOT offers a x-country skiing coach are endless – it's time to join the x-country skiing revolution!

The Eastern Oregon Trade and Event Center is officially the city of Hermiston's.
After the Umatilla County board of commissioners voted to withdraw from the joint project last week, the Hermiston city council voted Monday to approve the deal, taking on full ownership and liability for EOTEC in the hopes that the switch will help the center run more efficiently and cut down on the amount of hoops other organizations have to jump through when dealing with EOTEC.
"As my Scottish grandmother used to remind me, too many cooks spoil the broth," said commissioner George Murdock.
Representatives of the city and county alike took pains to stress that the breakup was an amicable one.
"You are part of Umatilla County and own the home of one of our biggest events and so obviously we want you to be successful," Murdock told the council.
As a result, the county is still living up to its share of several costs of EOTEC in the deal, the components of which include:
•The city takes full ownership of EOTEC and the land it is on
•The city takes ownership of Ott and Airport roads after the county improves them to a certain standard, with the help of $1.5 million from the state's transportation package.
•The city pays half of the cost of building office/storage space for the Umatilla County Fair, up to $250,000.
•The county pays an annual contribution of $75,000 per year for operations through 2022 and an additional $160,574 in 2018 for expected operational losses.
•The county pays $105,000 to cover its half of construction budget overruns.
•The county pays $595,000 by June 1 to provide half the cost VenuWorks estimates for fully equipping the facility.
•The county agrees to loan the city up to $500,000 for EOTEC if needed in the future.
•The fair lease increases from $10,000 annually to $100,000 annually for the use of the fairgrounds for six weeks each year.
The lease for the fair was renegotiated, and Smith said there were a few things that were clarified, such as the guarantee that the county can hold the fair appreciation dinner at EOTEC each winter. He said there were no plans to renegotiate the Farm-City Pro Rodeo lease.
Mayor David Drotzmann said the city was aware that the county could have just left the city "holding the bag" and was grateful for the county's willingness to be a good partner even as they dissolved the intergovernmental agreement that first formed EOTEC.
"It was a great partnership and we achieved some awesome things," he said.
Councilor John Kirwan said the deal represented the next chapter for EOTEC and said he was excited to see how it will grow.
When it came time for a vote on the deal, councilor Lori Davis made a motion to delay the decision for one more meeting, but the motion died for a lack of second. Davis did not explain why she wanted to wait. When a second motion was made by Kirwan to approve the deal, it was passed unanimously.
Afterward the council approved the first reading of an amendment to the city's charter, adding an EOTEC advisory committee to the city's list of committees. The committee will be made up of a member of the Umatilla County fair board, a member of the Farm-City Pro Rodeo board, a member of the hospitality/tourism community and two at-large members who can apply through the city's usual committee application process. The city manager, the general manager of EOTEC hired by VenuWorks and at least one city councilor will also attend meetings as liaisons.

I helped develop Switchboard with Spatch (http://spatch.co/), and can answer questions. Our motivation in building and continuing to build Switchboard is to make it easier for developers to process and take actions on incoming emails.
Kirill Zubovsky@kirillzubovsky · Troublemaker. Founder. Dad
Wonderful idea, if only it wasn't written in Erlang. It's a very suitable language for their are doing, probably, but having to learn how to use it in order to set this thing up is just too much of a pain, in comparison to making what they have in a language of choice. Of course, the end state for this product is probably to be open sourced and SAAS at the same time. Is there large enough Erlang community that would build up on top?
Erik TorenbergHunterHiring@eriktorenberg · Former Product Hunt
thought i'd post as i see a few products trying to modernize email. cc'ing founder @mickhagen, who I also met through his talent for rap - :)
Ben Drucker@bendrucker · Founder, Valet.io
@kirillzubovsky It's written in Erlang but it's glue from IMAP to WebSockets. If you really need this functionality it would be way faster than a ground-up rewrite.
@kirillzubovsky Yup, @bendrucker is right: Switchboard provides a translation from IMAP to WebSockets. Workers/clients connect to Switchboard over WebSockets, and can be written in any language: here's a basic email -> push notification worker written in Python: https://github.com/jtmoulia/swit... You'd only have to work in Erlang for extending Switchboard's core functionality. But, even then it hopefully won't impede core development much -- Erlang's lightweight processes and failure handling make it a great fit for Switchboard.

I was poking around it a bit today. Is this normal battery life? Should I just charge it everynight while I sleep? Is the GPS on by default? (I noticed it says it is on but it says may reduce battery life.) Thanks

Adrian DeWinter , 08 Feb 2012For most of you that are hating on the damn phone, I can honestly say I feel sorry you. Most o... moreDude, even if you use a Porsche, I dont envy you from just reading your post. And please, your porsche can only shield your battered self esteem thus far.... Rest!
Porsche looks very far from what i will invest in, except you will tell me that it can turn into anything i want like holiday, School fees, food etc...
Shakmati, 08 Feb 2012U've become worse than those hating on the foneThe truth must be told. Let's call a spade a spade
Adrian DeWinter , 08 Feb 2012For most of you that are hating on the damn phone, I can honestly say I feel sorry you. Most o... moreU've become worse than those hating on the fone
How many of the manufacturers or top managers of this company (manufacturers Blackberry) use this phone?
PORSCHE 9981....expensive,yeah!!but i appreciate the fact that someone thought about this and made it happen..everyone is complaining its not worth having..but m so sure if given as a gift,it will be recieved gladly..i like this phone and i want it!!!
Adrian DeWinter , 08 Feb 2012For most of you that are hating on the damn phone, I can honestly say I feel sorry you. Most o... moreAdrian DeWinter,
I authoritatively put it to you that you don't have a Storm 1.
You are the type that spend your last dime on show-off.
Matured people see BB as a tool, thus make optimal use of the push services and others for businesses and official tracking. But armatures like you see it as a fashion.
Wake up dude and think like a Nigerian, that you claim to be.
For most of you that are hating on the damn phone, I can honestly say I feel sorry you. Most of you are unbelievable. Because you cant buy the phone must you hate on it and insult those that can buy it? Most of you can't buy a rolls Royce Phantom yet do hate on the car? Do you hate on jay z for buying it? Is it not the same as every other car on the road, same tyre, engine and passenger compartment? Afterall they've made enough bb for you the masses. Is it all the bb in the market you people want to buy? Let some other people enjoy exclusivity. You people are too greedy. Secondly you guys insults anyone that buys the phone saying that the person doesn't know what to do wit money! Is it your money? If the person stole the money is it your business? You people especially we Nigerian should stop hating and a life! Go and work and earn money to spoil yourself too. Everywhere I go wit my bb porsche people stop and admire it, then I see most of the people on this website opening their mouths and hating. You guyz are hypocrites. Go and buy your own!
No special features on the blackberry porsch.....its just a waste of money.............
except d phone can teleport me or transform into some kinda transformer i dont fink its worth its price, or is it made out of white gold?????
jayx, 05 Feb 2012For those who can afford it, fine.for those who can't U ain't missing out on anytin. I hear so... moreI see lots of comments quoting the naira value! Who says this was built for everyone or for sales figures?
This is a masterpiece with the Porsche signature on it, for people who av something extra in the bank and want a special bold 9900 different from every other in the market!
Globally targeted at a certain market! Naija shud take a chill! It's not for all, cept' d people who jst wana be different.
its more like a calculator and the price is too much so i dont think its worth it
Guys, seriously.. Accepted the phone is costly and most of the population will not buy it for the price, as rightly stated by on person i was reading, we dont disregard a thing just because its price is not affordable. We admire the design and brand. The phone is a simple bold 9900 but designed by Porsche. Not made for everyone as its genuinely expensive. But people who can afford its a good booster specially for blackberry lovers. Lets not put Porsche design and price into question, as seriously how many of us do not want to buy a Porsche/Ferrari... but can we all afford it? :) Simplistic approach and not jealous approach is required.
Apart from its high prices, being a phone freeck I have read the specifications and see nothing special about the phone.

Irish Greyhound Industry
The sight-hounds normally live for 12 to 14 years. In Ireland, the majority of them will only live for 3 to 4 years. This is because greyhounds are just consumables here.
Every year a few thousands of greyhounds are retired from racing and coursing. No longer required, they are dumped, abused, abandoned or killed. Greyhounds are the most abused of all breeds of dogs. Unfortunately, it is very difficult to find homes for them in Ireland as greyhounds are not seen as pets here.
Great Hounds In Need is trying to find new homes abroad, mostly in the Czech Republic. Their aim is to show people that sight hounds are amazing, lovely natured creatures that can make wonderful pets.

Yesterday we mentioned that VersionTracker had reported the release of Photoshop 7, and the company has now officially released press releases announcing said shipping (note that some of our forum members report receiving their copies). There are actually three press releases, one to announce the release, and then one each to focus on Mac OS X and Windows XP. The interesting thing about those press releases is the language of the two OS specific announcements. The Mac OS X press release in its entirety:
Adobe Systems Incorporated, the leader in network publishing, today announced the immediate availability of Photoshop 7.0 with native support for Mac OS X. Creative professionals and photographers using the Mac can now take advantage of system-level enhancements in Mac OS X to more efficiently create the highest quality digital images with Adobe® Photoshop® 7.0 software. While fully compatible with the newest enhancements of Mac OS X, Photoshop 7.0 also supports Mac OS 9.1 and 9.2.
"Adobe and Apple are committed to working side-by-side to deliver the best quality, highest performance products possible for creative professionals," said Bruce Chizen, president and CEO of Adobe. "By continuing to deliver Mac OS X-native software solutions, like the award-winning Photoshop 7.0, customers can enjoy working with their favorite graphic design, imaging, dynamic media, and authoring tools on the Mac."

I misplaced a box of suboxone a while back and I just recently come across it,but it's expired. Can it have lost it's potency since then? Or should I say can I still take it? Thanks.
I misplaced a box of suboxone a while back and I just recently come across it,but it's expired. Can it have lost it's potency since then? Or should I say can I still take it? Thanks.
how out of date? I have some ativan dated back from 2008 and it has lost it's punch but it still works. When it was new, I only took a half and now I need the full 1mg. Because it's out dated. I took an OLD prescription of something (don't remember what it was) to my Dr. because I wanted a re-fill and it was something like 5 years past the exp. date and he laughed and asked, "does it still work?" I said, "yeah, just have to up the dose." He said, "lets get you a new one, it won't hurt you, it just won't have the potency."
Stay safe,
It depends both on how passed its expiration it is and how hot it was over that time period.
Generally they degrade slower in colder conditions.
Likely it'll still be at least somewhat effective, and it wouldn't be at all unusual of it were still almost impossible to tell apart from a nonexpired pack.
It's extremely unlikely that it poses any safety concern so id just try it and see how it goes.
I was painting a doctors house in 2010 & I found 11 sample blister packs of Oxycodone and it was dated EXP1996. I was sick & hadn't had any meds in about 36 hours. So, I tore the packs open & ate about 5 10mg tablets. Let's just say they're wasn't anything wrong with those pills even being dated that old, they hadn't lost any kick. As long as meds are kept in a controlled environment and temperature it'll be fine.
Considering the fact that I ate a pop tart this morning that had probably been sitting on my desk for 5 days, this wouldn't be a major departure for myself. As a rule of thumb, drugs will take a long-time to degrade and in the event that they do degrade, this most often translates into a reduced potency. It's unlikely that the drug will become dangerous or toxic simply from sitting. I'm not saying it cannot happen, but it's unlikely.
Most drugs do not "expire" like doctors tell you they do. They will however lose potency over time but the reason they tell you that the drugs will expire is so that you will have to buy more. its all about the $$$. Hope that helps, be safe!
Its probably fine... drugs can last decades past their expiry date.
Actually they tested morphine vials that were 100 years old, and they were still active(how they tested, not sure)

Lost Safety, Lost Home, Lost Dignity
Lecturer to present the plight of the refugee
Ahh, home. Dorothy said "There's no place like home" in "The Wizard of Oz," "Home Sweet Home" was a cross-stitch boon in the '80s and the dictionary defines home as "the place where one lives permanently."
And then there are the refugees who have no home. They were forced to leave their home country out of fear of persecution, armed conflict and violations of human rights. They didn't leave their home because they chose to – they fled for their lives. Most left their homes with the clothes on their backs and few, if any, possessions. They may have originally thought it would be a short time until things returned to normal but then they recognized they cannot return home because of continued conflict and wars. The refugee stories are ones of desperation with all seeking safety, freedom and the chance to reclaim futures for themselves and their families.
On Sunday, July 24, a special program will be presented on the plight of the refugee at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 25000 Westwood Road, Westlake. Beginning at 6 p.m., Mr. Alassane Fall, volunteer coordinator and community outreach specialist at the International Services Center Cleveland will present a one-hour program that will inform and inspire. The ISC is 100 years old this year and has settled over 14,000 refugees into various neighborhoods of Greater Cleveland in that time.
Mr. Fall is a popular lecturer, has presented programs in colleges and societies throughout the United States and is published in various periodicals from Senegal to Canada, France, West Africa and more. He has been involved with the United Nations-Geneva, the Foreign Ministry of Senegal, the American Red Cross (NEO), the International Institute of Humanitarian Law-Italy and others. Mr. Fall responded to a request by a member of the local JustServe committee to provide volunteer opportunities on a website for those who would like to assist refugees in their integration into American society. Many service projects are available on the website, justserve.org, including mentoring, teaching English, assisting in home settlement, clothing and other necessary need drives.
Refugee settlement is reserved for some of the most vulnerable people in the entire world. The International Services Center offers critical resources that assist the refugees to successfully transition to life in the Greater Cleveland area and helps restore their safety and dignity. Volunteers at ISC would agree with Angelina Jolie: "Refugees have done more for my heart and my spirit than I can ever express in words."

Your fiancée, Phoebe Dahl, is doing incredible things with Faircloth & Supply. Are you involved with the clothing line at all?
I don't help with designing or anything—obviously that's all her. But she runs everything through me, to point that the other day we were in the office—she has a studio downtown—and she said to me, "You should start paying rent for working here," and I was like, "Excuse me? You should start paying me by the hour for like all of my services." We were just joking—we weren't fighting, we never fight—but we run everything by each other. And then we have a brand together called Scallywags, because she always wanted to do like streetwear-type clothing as well, because the stuff she does is very feminine and Japanese oversized linen, and it's beautiful stuff, but it's not everyday. And I'm really into that world and had a clothing range, which was more of a streetwear line. So I was like why don't we team up and do a gender-neutral, unisex-type brand and make it charitable and go by everything [Phoebe] knows as far as business sense and how to give one for one so that somebody else also benefits from purchasing the item and everything I know about like streetwear and fashion and the more kind of out-there looks. And it's cool. We're releasing it in about a week. [1]
You're a model, VJ/host, DJ, and actress. What do you find is the most challenging?
I do a lot of DJ stuff, so I produce some music on the side as well, and I find that very challenging. I feel like when I was younger, like 16 or 17, I could sit on a computer for like 24 hours and not even notice and love it. And now, I think there is always that push and pull of how much time I want to spend in the office versus outside living. So producing can be really challenging, but because it's a challenge, I really like doing it. It's like fixing problems constantly. And then aside from that, definitely acting. You know, modeling it's not even a challenge at all. It's like I could do it with my eyes closed. It's actually kind of therapeutic, because I don't have to talk, I don't have to think, I can just hang out. Someone else does it all for me. They do my makeup to make me pretty, they dress me to make me look good, and there's a really talented photographer who has lit it well so you naturally look beautiful. It's almost like a foolproof job, and I've been doing it since I was like 12 or something. But acting is—I mean yes, you have amazing writers and the director is hugely involved. I mean, if you don't listen to a director then you are not a good actor, but it's really all on you. When there's like 15-20 people in the room that aren't in the actual scene behind the camera, and then you have this other actor or two actors or three actors that you are working with, and they are all incredibly talented, and you're all trying to remember your lines, but also trying to remember to feel every emotion; it's really challenging. And it's so much more new to me. I did television hosting for six years. I could pick up a microphone and interview you and I could do it for an hour without missing a beat, but acting is definitely, um, it gives me nerves and anxiety, but really good nerves and anxiety. It's like going to the gym after you haven't been in a really long time, saying I don't want to do this, I can't do that, and then you do it and you feel the best you've ever felt in your life and you're better the next day and the next day and the next day.
So what's next?
Well I have Orange, and then I have a sci-fi coming out, and I have a lot indie films at the moment that we're sort of in talks with. And there are some great scripts going around, so hopefully I pick up a good project. Honestly, there is so much going on outside of Orange, but I'm so in the Orange world right now. But there's the clothing range with Phoebe, I'm touring the states and Europe DJ'ing. It's mental—every day is different. I'll be in the studio, and then I'll meet with a studio or casting agent, then I'll go shoot something, and then I'll do press, and then I'm flying to Spain. It's a pretty crazy life.

Research Conference on Globalization: Managing Director's Opening Remarks
October 11, 2017
Honored Guests, Ladies and Gentlemen—It is a pleasure for me to welcome you to our conference on the benefits and challenges of globalization.
I would like to thank you, Maury, and your team in the Research Department for bringing together some of the world's leading thinkers—on a topic that lies at the heart of the IMF's mandate.
This conference is well-timed. The global financial crisis left many countries with lower growth and higher inequality—increasing doubts about the benefits of globalization, especially in advanced economies.
How can governments respond to this changing landscape? The good news is that the global recovery is now stronger—and more broadly based—than we have seen in a decade.
This means that governments have an ideal opportunity to act—both individually and together—to secure the benefits of trade, while ensuring that those benefits are more evenly shared among their citizens.
The distinguished speakers at today's conference will focus on how best to achieve that goal.
1. Globalization Benefits
We know that our world is highly interconnected through a constant flow of goods, services, capital, people, and ideas.
We also know that this economic integration, or globalization, has delivered tremendous prosperity to the world.
It has fostered a sharp decline in global income inequality—that is inequality between countries. It has also, over the past two decades, helped reduce by about half the share of the world's population living in extreme poverty.
Living standards have been boosted in all countries, including in advanced economies, where consumers and businesses are benefiting from lower prices and a greater variety of goods. Trade is particularly important for poorer consumers, because they buy relatively more low-price imports. That is also why they are most affected by trade restrictions.
A recent study shows that the poorest 10 percent of consumers would lose as much as 63 percent of their purchasing power if all borders were closed.[1] By contrast, people on high incomes would lose "only" 28 percent—still a lot, but less devastating if you are well off.
But this is not the whole story. Access to imported production inputs makes the economy more productive.
For example, recent analysis shows that one-quarter of Hungary's productivity growth between 1993 and 2002 stemmed from greater availability of imported intermediate inputs.[2]
Of course, trade also promotes the spread of innovative technologies and production processes across borders. People learn from each other through trade.
Billions of people now enjoy longer, healthier, and more prosperous lives, largely because of our ability to harness the power of trade and innovation.
And yet we also know that these drivers of globalization come with negative side-effects, from job losses in shrinking sectors to social challenges in some communities.
The fact is that globalization has the potential to benefit all citizens. But countries have been facing a number of challenges.
2. Globalization Challenges
For advanced economies, a key challenge has been competition from lower-wage countries.
Almost three decades ago, China, India, and the former communist countries started to engage more deeply with the global trading system. This process had far-reaching effects:
The size of the global workforce effectively doubled, putting downward pressure on wages, especially for lower-skilled workers in advanced economies. This has contributed to a decline in manufacturing employment in the advanced world, although here, labor-saving technology improvement has played a bigger role.
At the same time, many advanced economies have been facing stagnating median wages and higher income inequality—all driven by a range of factors besides trade, but occurring as trade has expanded.
For emerging and developing countries as well, trade has come with negative side-effects. These include rising income inequality, increasing wage premia for skilled workers, and the need to support displaced workers who are looking for new jobs in other industries.[3]
Despite these challenges, citizens in emerging economies generally take a more favorable view of trade and its labor-market impact. Why? Because their incomes have been growing, even in the bottom deciles of the income distribution.
3. Policies for Inclusive Trade
The best policy response to all these challenges is not to turn our back on trade. Instead, we need to redouble our efforts to create a more inclusive global trading system that works for all.
As you know, the IMF cares deeply about fostering trade. This has been at the heart of the Fund's mandate for more than 70 years. And we continue to help our 189 member countries extend the benefits of openness—so they can use trade integration to boost growth, employment, and real incomes.
Recent analysis[4] by the IMF, World Bank, and WTO shows that, when it comes to trade, we do not need to choose between inclusiveness and economic growth—as long as we have the right policies.
One focus of today's conference is how we can better support workers. I am particularly interested in ideas on how governments can boost worker mobility across firms, industries, and regions.
For example, governments can step up investment in job search assistance, retraining, and vocational training. They can also strengthen social safety nets by providing appropriate unemployment insurance, health benefits, and portable pensions.
More broadly, there is a need for better education systems to prepare workers for the changing demands of the labor market. And there is a need to support affected communities more directly through relocation assistance and smart credit strategies.
Another focus of today's conference is how we can strengthen the global trading system. This includes, for example, pushing for trade reforms to increase trade in services, from finance, to engineering, to education. It also means boosting trade in digital products to help realize the full potential of global e-commerce.
Concluding Remarks
Achieving better economic integration is not an easy task. Nor is it a uniquely modern challenge.
More than 200 years ago, Adam Smith wrote in the Wealth of Nations: "Commerce, which ought naturally to be, among nations, as among individuals, a bond of union and friendship, has become the most fertile source of discord and animosity."
Today's generation of policymakers will be measured by their ability to turn animosity into agreement.
I believe that, with the right policy mix, we can help create a lasting bond of union and friendship—a globalization that works for all.
I look forward to our discussions on this topic.
Thank you.
