FIVE Airlines have been designated for the airlift of 100,000 pilgrims the King Abdul Azzez International Airport Jeddah,Saudi Arabia for this year's holy pilgrimage.
According to Mr Sam Adurogboye, the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA), Head of Public Relations in a statement today listed the designated airlines as : Max Airline, MedView Airline, Kabo Air, Meridian Airline and Trade Craft Nigeria Limited.
While Max Airline is to airlift about 40,000; Kabo will lift about 23,000; Med view -14, 000; Meridian 3,500 and over 10,000 will go under the aegis of International Passengers who are to be airlifted by Trade Craft Nigeria Ltd.
THE Commissioner, Accident Investigation Bureau(AIB), Nigeria, Engineer Sam Oduselu has stressed the need for all hands to be on deck to contain the serious threat posed to Aviation by mindless activities of Terrorists in recent time.
He made the call while speaking at a safety and security conference organized by Travel Business magazine held at the Murtala Mohammed International Airport, Ikeja, and Lagos.
According to Engineer Oduselu, the activities of terrorists was not good for business and added that,:"Terrorism instils fear into the minds of travelling passengers, which scares them away from flying. For air transportation, it is like draining blood from a man when passengers are not flying. Terrorism aims at the jugular of air travel business and cannot be condoned"
He pointed out that the spread of this fear of insecurity to air travel was understandable arising from the tragic events of September 11, 2001 in the United States of America when terrorists turned aircraft into tools of mass destruction, the world has become alert to the threat of unlawful interference in air transportation.
In Nigeria, he noted that the challenges to security in the nation have become more palpable than ever before with bombs exploding everywhere and terrorists groups threatening of more strikes.
With this trend, Engineer Oduselu said tension was building up by the day as a result of the dastardly acts of these terrorists and Aviation by extension could not be isolated from this attendant fear of insecurity.
He told the gathering at the conference that the threat of unlawful interference drains the resources that could have been used to improve safety including financial and time resources.
Oduselu added that,: "It imposes pressure on operators and personnel. It induces multiple levels of security checks at the airports with the attendant stress on the travelling public. With that, air rage is bound to be on the increase. Terrorism impacts on aviation economics and safety with its undesirable consequences. The negative effects of terrorism on aviation are several and severe. This is not acceptable".
BUSINESS opportunities to develop Tanzania, Nigeria, Zambia and Ghanaian airport infrastructure will be discussed at the Emerging Markets Airport Suppliers Conference (EMASC 2011) scheduled to be held on 11th &12th December 2011 at the Al Bustan Rotana Hotel, Dubai (UAE).
The conference focuses on major airport projects under construction and expansion in the Emerging Markets of the Middle East, Africa, Asia & Eastern Europe and will provide updates on new solutions and technologies available in the market for efficiency, safety, speed and comfort in airports.
It is estimated that Emerging Markets have allocated more than US$150 billion for airport development projects over the next few years.
Eng. George Isai Sambali, Manager, Planning Design and Evaluation with Tanzania Airports Authority which oversees the airport development in Tanzania will do the presentation about the ongoing expansion programs in Mwalimu Nyerere International Airport, Bukoba Airport and Kilimanjaro International Airport expansion projects in Tanzania worth more than US$1.2bn.
Following the Tanzanian Airports Authority presentation, Mr. Richard Aisuebeogun, Managing Director, Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria, will be speaking on Nigerian government's plan to spend more than US$ 2.5bn on Murtala Mohammed International Airport in Lagos.
Besides, he will also be talking about business opportunities of more than US$900m for suppliers at the ongoing airport projects in Nigeria namely Osun State Airport, Asaba Airport, Jalingo Airport and Zamfara Cargo Airport. Apart from these airports, more than 5 new projects are at the proposal stage and will be announced soon.
Prince Chintimbwe, Director , Airport Services, National Airport Corporation, Lusaka International Airport, Zambia will present the airport expansion and new projects worth US$300m include the main capital- Lusaka International Airport (LUN); and three other International airports Livingstone(LVI)- gateway to the Victoria Falls area; Ndola (NLA) in Zambia's copper mining heartland and Mfuwe(MFU) that provides access to the world-renowned Luangwa National Park.
"The presentations by the African Airport Authorities authorities will provide an overview of business opportunities available at the airports in these countries, assesses challenges and obstacles with a view to mitigating them, leading to business opportunities for all," said Raj Menon, General Manager of Arabian Reach, the organizers of the conference. "We were happy to have them as our featured speakers and are even happier to note that EMASC 2011 is on the road to becoming one of the largest airport suppliers event ever held in the Middle East."

Home > Results Based Management (RBM)
As a next step in the evolution of logical framework approaches, Results Based Management or RBM tries to respond to a number of issues of the PCM and LFA methods. People often ask what the difference is between PCM or LFA and Results Based Management. In a sense, you could say that RBM is PCM done right. It provides more tools and directives on what you should do to ensure that you really design your project in a participatory way, or to make sure that you really think about assumptions and risks.
RBM is also critical of many donors' focus on inputs (funds and resources) and activities, and promotes a shift towards the results of the project: its tangible outputs, its effects and its impact. That is the 'Results' part of RBM. As for the 'Management' aspect, RBM provides a number of tools to monitor the performance of your project. Are you getting the results you wanted? How can you be sure? How many resources do you use? These are the questions to which RBM can give an answer
Compared to its predecessors, RBM also takes more into account that the context or environment in which you're working is dynamic and influences your project – in positive ways but also in negative ways. RBM stimulates you to think about assumptions and risks, not just at project design time, but over the whole course of your project.
RBM also tries to step away from the top-down or project manager's view of PCM. It takes a step further than the classic idea of participation that limits itself to questioning the beneficiaries or stakeholders in order to determine the project's objectives and other elements necessary for the design of the project. In RBM, partners and beneficiaries share the responsibility of making the project a success together with the lead NGO.
Results Based Management also uses the idea of the learning cycle: learning from practice (past projects) using the information gathered from the different monitoring and management tools and from evaluations and analyses to develop new strategies and new projects.
Add new comment [2]
According to the Canadian International Development Agency [4], which pioneered the use of RBM in international development, Results-based management is a life-cycle approach to management that integrates strategy, people, resources, processes, and measurements to improve decision making, transparency, and accountability. The approach focuses on achieving outcomes, implementing performance measurement, learning, and adapting, as well as reporting performance.
Transparency: using well designed and well-chosen indicators, it must be possible to give a clear image of what the project is doing and where it is going. Transparency towards the donors, but also transparency towards the partners and beneficiaries. RBM introduces the Performance Framework [6] to clearly identify objectives, how their progress will be measured (and at what frequency), who will be responsible for what, etc.
RBM pr [9]ovides an approach and tools for both project design and project execution. Furthermore, it also uses the concept of the learning cycle to learn from one project and use it for future activities. We'll describe the RBM process in 13 steps (for good luck).
Project design [9]
Identification and planning [10]
Step 1: Stakeholder analysis and identification of beneficiaries [11]
Step 2: Identification of problems and needs [12]
Step 3: Determining the Performance Framework (PF) [6]
Step 4: Finding indicators and developing the Performance Measurement Framework [13]
Step 5: Identifying assumptions and analysing risk factors [14]
Step 6: Activities, resources and responsibilities [15]
Deciding on the intervention logic (project logic) [16]
Step 7: Developing the logical framework [17]
Step 8: Writing the project proposal [18]
Project execution [19]
Monitoring and evaluation of performance [20]
Step 9: Collecting information on performance [21]
Step 10: Analysing the project's performance [22]
Step 11: Reporting [23]
Follow-up of risks and assumptions (step 12) [24]
Learning (step 13) [25]
Français [29]
During this step, a problematic situation is analysed with the different stakeholders, including the (potential) beneficiaries of the project. Usually a method like the problem tree analysis [30] or a fishbone analysis is used. Once the central problem is identified, the participants to the workshop can identify its root-causes. The following step is to describe the negative consequences of the problem and select the most important ones.
The problem tree then can be turned into a solutions tree [31], which will probably contain different ways of approaching the problem. Depending on the possibilities and capacities of the different partners and of the beneficiaries, the best approach or strategy to dealing with the central problem can be identified.
The Performance Framework (not to be confused with the Performance Measurement Framework [13]) describes the intervention logic of the project. It describes how what we invest and what we do will lead to tangible results.
With the information from the solution tree analysis [31] (or another method), the basic elements of the project can be identified:
The Performance Measurement Framework (PMF) is the next step after the Performance Framework [6]. For each result that we expect for our project, we'll identify indicators [34], ways to verify the information [35], ways to collect the information, the frequency at which the information is gathered and who is responsible for gathering that information [36].
Français [37]
Français [39]
Français [43]
The Risk Register is a tool to identify and monitor risks over the course of the project. It resembles the PMF [44]and lists the risks, the risk indicators, information sources, methods to collect information, the frequency at which the information will be collected and who is responsible for this information gathering.
Français [46]
The intervention logic is the cause-and-effect chain or results chain that's been identified in the Performance Framework [6]:
Note that compared to the 'classic' logical framework as it is used in LFA [47]and PCM [48], there is a dimension of time in the intervention logic of RBM, as well as a spatial dimension. We immediately get the outputs as a consequence of the activities. But it takes time for the effects to materialise (near the end of the project or maybe even after it) and the impact will only be visible after a long time (sometimes years or even decades after the project). The outputs will be used directly by the people involved in the project, while the effects are generally felt by those people and their immediate surroundings (family, clan, village). The impact on the other hand may be visible in a widespread area (region, country, internationally).
Français [49]
Outputs can be things or services, but at least on the level of the intermediate results (the purpose of your project or the specific objective in PCM [48]/LFA [47] talk) talk about results in terms of people. You are trying to improve the lives of your beneficiaries (clients), not some kind of abstract change of situation.
Français [50]
The logical framework and the other tools such as the budget, the PMF [44]and the risk register [51] provide you with the basic information for the project proposal document. Generally, the narrative project document contains information about:
Français [53]
Français [54]
Français [55]
Using the Performance Measurement Framework [44], you can analyse the information that you gathered to assess:
Français [56]
Français [57]
During the project's design phase, the risks and assumptions were identified and listed in the risk register [51]. This risk register can be used during the execution of the project to reassess the situation and the risks periodically.
Français [58]
Like Project Cycle Management [48], RBM is based on the idea of the learning cycle. In fact, you could say that there are two learning cycles. The first one is a cycle that includes the activities, the monitoring and the evaluation. By tracking the performance of the project, you are able to learn what you need to modify the execution of your project in a flexible way. This learning ensures that you achieve your final objectives.
RBM is good for you – or is it?
A big advantage of Results Based Management as compared to other logframe methods is that it tends to be less top-down. RBM puts a lot of emphasis on participation, not just during project design (like PCM [48] and LFA [47]) but also during the execution of the project (including monitoring). At the same time, this is exactly what makes this approach a bit unwieldy. All this participation is fine for creating feelings of ownership and making sure your objectives are relevant, but it also takes time and effort. As a consequence, RBM is easier to handle for big organisations than for smaller ones.
But even small organisations can benefit from the many practical tools that RBM provides. This approach provides you with a clear and detailed way of designing and executing your project. Although it takes time to go through the step-by-step instructions [61], they do lead to a well-designed project with clear and relevant objectives. The notion of 'performance' has the additional benefit that the link between the resources (funding) that you use and the results that you get is clear. This is one reason why RBM is favoured by donors.
The risk management tools [51] included in RBM help you to do something concrete with the often neglected fourth column of the logframe. Instead of just imagining what could possibly go wrong ('we run out of money!'), this method allows you to identify real risks and assess what could be the effect should they materialise.
However, RBM does suffer from the same problems as its cousins, LFA and PCM. It is based on a linear cause-and-effect concept that tends to simplify what are often very complex realities. RBM may force you to identify cause-and-effect relations where there are none (or they may be questionable). It doesn't take into account that you may not be the only organisation in the vicinity that has an influence on this problem.
And then there is the question of RBM-as-it-is-meant-to-be versus RBM-as-it-is-pushed-by-donors (and big organisations). The participatory design process may lead to a project proposal that is well founded, but once a contract with a donor is signed, it is cast in concrete. Away are the flexibility, the learning cycle and the possibility to adapt your activities according to what you measure and learn. Upward accountability becomes all important and sharing information with beneficiaries, partners and other stakeholders comes in second place – or in third place, or fourth, or… And the focus may shift again from achieving the intermediate results (purpose of the project) to financial management and executing the activities as planned. But these problems are not inherent to the approach itself, but to the way it is used or to how organisations are forced to use it.

Perhaps the most crucial reason to be organized or to declutter is for your health. Living in clutter can cause stress, depression, anxiety, problems with interpersonal relationships, and more. When you declutter, you are alleviating the disorganization in your room and in your mind. Keeping trash around, failing to clean regularly, or simply leaving your home or office in a disarray can be a breeding ground for bacteria. Staying organized can also help to ease the anxiety that many of us who aren’t as organized may have. Other traits such as lateness, unresponsiveness to texts or emails, and messiness are all stigmatized, which can create a fear of peer judgement for many individuals
However, staying organized can be simple. Small tasks, such as keeping a clean room, planning out meals, or making the bed in the morning, have far-reaching benefits. Organization is crucial for keeping track of one’s responsibilities, even contributing to healthier eating, reduced stress, and improved relationships by creating more time to live a balanced life. Organization reduces a person’s stress- Clutter can take a toll on your health by increasing your stress levels, even if an individual doesn’t recognize it. Organization helps a person sleep better- When we prioritize organization, we give ourselves time to focus on what really matters, like your much-needed sleep. Organizing our daily schedule and tasks allows us to concentrate on what needs to get done that day instead of being distracted by things around ourselves. Organization promotes a healthier diet- Being organized allows us to plan healthy dishes and meal prep for the week. When we prepare our meals and snacks ahead of time, we are less likely to make poor dietary choices Organization can improve your relationships- It’s hard to focus on your relationships when we are fixated on a lack of cleanliness and organization. This goes for both physical and lifestyle organization and refers to relationships in and outside of work.

Alexa Demie Short Hair: Alexa Demie Haircut | BEAUTY/crew
The 'Maddy mane' is no longer
Digital Beauty Editor / March 09 2022
Considering her claws are so iconic that her 'nail acting' is TikTok's favourite thing to recreate RN, it's hard to label any one thing as Euphoria star Alexa Demie's 'standout feature'.
However, though said talons (which she embraces offscreen as well as on) are definitely up there, her face is that of an angel, and she wears a black cutout number better than anyone else on earth, Demie's signature long black locks may have just snaked the number one envy-inducing spot for us.
Until now, that is, because the actress has just ditched them completely. Yep, she got a major chop and we're majorly shook.
The 31-year-old is no stranger to hair experimentation in general, often embracing artistically laid baby hairs, sleek pulled back ponies, and recently even a set of baby bangs, but this has to be Demie's most dramatic look yet. Let's just say it's a long way from the Maddy Perez aesthetic.
It is worth noting, though, that if you inspect said looks, it's clear that Demie is partial to an updo IRL, and so a shorter crop actually does make a lot of sense for her.
Dying to take a peek at the pics? You can spy OG snaps of the cropped cut here. For the record, this may not be the chop at its chicly styled best; Demie was just running errands (visiting a car repair shop to be precise) at the time the snaps were taken.
But while we need a minute to mourn the unrivalled glossiness of her longer locks, we must admit she pulls off the shorter length perfectly. Honestly, who's surprised? With that bone structure, anything is possible.
As much as we'd love to see her take the look to 'Insta official' status with a selfie reveal, we won't be holding our breath – Demie's social media accounts are surprisingly bare considering the fact that the Internet is obsessed with her.
We have, however, been blessed with a shot of Demie attending the Balenciaga show with her chop (and a fresh set of baby bangs) in tow. So. Damn. Cool.
The chop does pose a few questions, though, especially considering the fact that Euphoria was recently renewed for a third season. Will Maddy's signature style return or will she cut her hair (and hopefully Nate) out of her life? Will Demie wear a wig? Will she have a boy bob by then? Will her hair have grown back out entirely?
It remains to be seen. But you best believe that we'll be watching like haircut-obsessed hawks waiting to find out.

Haryana Assembly has passed a bill - Haryana Road Infrastructure Protection Bill, 2017 - that criminalises damage to state roads. The violators are subjected to three years imprisonment and monetary fine. Reports say the bill was passed for implementing a systematic approach to utilise and manage road infrastructure in a better manner and at the same time enhance security. It also provides legal framework so that concerned authorities can check all kinds of unauthorised access to roads. The bill also bans unauthorised hoardings and prohibits encroachment of roads in Haryana.
Reports revealed that at least 11 CRPF personnel were killed while four others were injured in Sukma district of Chattisgarh on Saturday. Maoists reportedly opened fire on a road opening party (ROP) at around 9 am.
The CRPF personnel, from 219 battalion, were part of the ROP. The incident took place when they were clearing the road between Bhejji and Kuttacheru.
"Tojo was a Gyspy Joker, the President of the Gypsy Jokers at this time in the 90’s and Early 2000’s. The mechanic Dick, the Gypsy Jokers mechanic, was the man I heard did business with the rapist Kurt Slaven. This is when I knew I could Not report Kurt Slaven to just Any police officer and could not tell everyone about the attack. A police officer linked to very bad people - the biker gang, the Gypsy Jokers. The thoughts “What do I do?” “Who can I report this too?!”. I did not know what to do as a 17 year old attacked at 16 years of age and pursued again by a man paid to protect me, a policeman. I had talked about the sexual assault by 2002, though scared and learnt all of this about the police and the bikies. A year later, 2002, I was ready to report the sex crime Kurt Slaven commited and the attempted futher assault and now I know he’s a dangerous cop. Now what? KNOWING by 2002 that Kurt Slaven was a corrupt detective associated with the bikers. How was I going to report a police officer, especially such a corrupt one?!
Where was I supposed to go - to his friends at the police station!!? A teenager with no one, at a time where I had just been living with a friend as my parents would not let me move home - I gave up on the hope of justice. Other than the police check that I had to obtain to teach swimming, I kept as far as possible away from the police. Until Gordon Hamm died in 2014. Whistleblowing the government disabilities sector a couple years after Kurt Slaven’s crime 2003 - 2005, I was quickly per occupied with other things in life. Thrown into life as a teenager, exposed instantly to the cruel inhumane actions of persons in power, and change makers in change making positions doing nothing about serious Human Rights concerns. A bitter-sweet taste of fate. Before this, 20 years after Kurt Slaven’s sexual crime, thrust to a status of the ‘infamously’ famous whistleblower of the era. Targeted by both the Only governments to have served Australia, lucky to survive the lies of a compromised police force and government corruption cover ups at any cost."

We all have the potential to sweat buckets, whether that’s from standing on the Central Line in 33-degree heat, going for it in spin class or simply being stressed out. But if you find you have excessive sweating, not simply when it’s warm or you’re exerting yourself, you may have a condition called hyperhidrosis.
Although it’s a very common condition, it may be causing you a fair amount of physical and emotional discomfort. So if excessive sweating is bothering you, read on to find out more about the condition and what you should do next.
‘Hyperhidrosis is a common medical condition where there is excessive sweating caused by overactive sweat glands,’ explains qualified GP and aesthetic expert Dr Sarah Shah. ‘People with hyperhidrosis may sweat even when it is cool or when they are at rest.’
Common areas for excessive sweating are the hands, feet, face and underarms, but you may experience it all over your body.
According to the NHS, there may be no clear reason for excessive sweating, though it can be a side effect of some medications.
It may also be caused by an underlying medical condition, so it’s important to speak to your GP if persistent sweating is an ongoing problem for you. Sweating is also a major side effect of the menopause, and may be triggered by pregnancy, alcohol or eating hot and spicy food.
There’s no ‘cure’ for hyperhidrosis, but several things you can do keep the excessive sweating to a minimum. In terms of lifestyle choices, wear loose clothing or try stick-on underarm patches.
‘There are ways you can manage hyperhidrosis on a daily basis, like using anti antiperspirants which contain 10-20% aluminium chloride hexahydrate, Dr Shah adds. ‘These work by plugging the sweat ducts.’
Dr Shah offers an excessive sweating treatment: ‘The procedure in clinic is simple and safe; before the treatment is carried out, the affected areas are cleaned and dried and lightly dusted with powder to identify the areas with the highest activity.
‘Botox is then injected in about 25 different small points to ensure good coverage. No anaesthesia is required, the procedure itself only lasts a few minutes, and most activities can be resumed immediately.
Note that the purpose of this feature is to inform, not replace one-to-one medical consultations. For advice tailored specifically to you, always discuss your health with your doctor.

Short interest is the volume of Immutep shares that have been sold short but have not yet been closed out or covered. As of February 12th, traders have sold 63,000 shares of IMMP short.
Immutep saw a increase in short interest in the month of February. As of February 12th, there was short interest totaling 63,000 shares, an increase of 12.1% from the previous total of 56,200 shares. Changes in short volume can be used to identify positive and negative investor sentiment. Investors that short sell a stock are betting that its price will decline in the future. An increase in short sale volume suggests bearish (negative) sentiment among investors. A decrease on short sale volume suggests bullish (positive) sentiment.
Short selling IMMP is an investing strategy that aims to generate trading profit from Immutep as its price is falling. Immutep's stock is trading down $0.03 today. To short Immutep stock, an investor borrows shares, sells them and buys the shares back on the public market later to return it to the lender. Short sellers are betting that Immutep will decline in price. If the stock does drop after selling, the short seller buys it back at a lower price and returns it to the lender. The difference between the sell price and the buy price is the trader's profit.
A short squeeze for Immutep occurs when it has a large amount of short interest and its stock increases in price. This forces short sellers to cover their short interest positions by buying actual shares of IMMP, which in turn drives the price of the stock up even further.
Short interest is typically published by a stock exchange once per month. However, NASDAQ publishes a report for U.S. stocks, including IMMP, twice per month. The most recent reporting period available is February, 12 2021.

Remember when buying a new car meant more than buying an entertainment system that also happened to contain wheels? In other words, remember when you bought the car, not the entertainment system? No longer. Watch this TV spot for the new Kia Optima. It compares the entertainment system “in most mid-size sedans” to a Rubiks Cube. The solution to that problem? Apple CarPlay! So doing stuff via your entertainment system in your car “is as easy as it is on your iPhone.” This stra
There’s much interest and much consternation about the entry of Google and Apple into operating-system extensions for the car dashboard with Android Auto and CarPlay, respectively. According to BI Intelligence: By 2020, nearly 40 million cars will be using Android Auto and 37.1 million will be using CarPlay, and that will cover nearly all cars launching connected car services, according to BI Intelligence estimates. That conclusion springs from a premium-priced report from BI
In a preview of CES, The Hollywood Reporter cuts to the chase – the most fundamental reason why the technology of the car dashboard is bound to change no matter what the power players of the radio industry desire: Car buyers—particularly millennials—are no longer as susceptible to the [auto] industry’s traditional marketing tropes of styling, horsepower and handling. Instead, they see the car as an extension of their digital lives, and increasingly demand that it mesh seamles
Last week, Google announced Android Auto, which – like Apple’s CarPlay – aims to fully fulfill the promise of the so-called connected car. Watch this video to see an illustration of how the platform integrates music, both from Google Play and from third party apps like Pandora or iHeartRadio: So what does this mean for radio? Well let’s take a step back. Broadcasters have been obsessed over the dashboard lately because they smell big trouble. But the trouble is much bigger th
By now you’ve heard about Apple’s new CarPlay platform which is gearing up for battle with Google’s Open Automotive Alliance, not to mention all the other platforms making a land grab for that whitest of spaces, the car dashboard. The Apple platform – coming soon – will only be available on a few new car models and will be integrated with only the newest iPhone models and features only a few non-Apple app partners (notably excluding Pandora). But this is how change comes, one

Housing Authority In Montclair Gets $54K From CARES Act
MONTCLAIR, NJ — Eight housing authorities across New Jersey's 11th Congressional District, including Montclair, will split $719,000 in federal funds to help low-income families amid the coronavirus pandemic.
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) released details about the funding last week.
"Housing security is essential for families across our community, and this latest funding from the CARES Act will help our neighbors stay in their homes during this difficult time," said Rep. Mikie Sherrill, who represents the district.
The Montclair Housing Authority will get $54,269, officials said.
Bloomfield Township Housing Authority - $56,365
Boonton Housing Authority - $41,161
Madison Housing Authority - $124,004
Morristown Housing Authority - $36,178
Morris County Housing Authority - $165,372
Passaic County Public Housing Agency - $215,964
West Orange Housing Authority - $25,431
The eligible coronavirus-related activities covered under the funding can include – but is not limited to – the following:
Costs for providing childcare for the children of PHA staff that would not have otherwise been incurred (e.g. children are at home due to school closings, PHA staff are working outside of regular work schedules, etc.)

I want to find free software that can do "things" with "equations".
Idk terms that are in use for such things, sorry, but there is what I need:
FOR a(x) = 2x^3 + x AND b(a) = a^2 - 3a
I want to see the result b(x) = 4x^6 + 4x^4 - 6x^3 + x^2 - 3x (sorted)
In addition, all similar terms (if any) grouped, etc etc.
ty for moving to the subforum I missed to notice.

thanks for the answer, but ... haha, while I was waiting to see any replies I had found that Maxima, and now... have to ask for an alternative, because, as I understand it, any mistake in the syntax leads to the ... socket closing, meaning it works online only. I need program that doesn't rely on any server.
Since you know about Maxima, can you tell if there are any program capable to work on thy own(offline)?
P.S. The list on wiki doesn't tell me anything, therefore I asking, hoping to save time from trying all from it:

Open up the Maxima folder and with luck there will be a wxmaxima sub-folder (I am assuming you are on a Windows box here, not sure where or if it is installed by default in Linux), open it and fire up the wxmaxima executable there, you should have no problems with that (and it is a better interface to Maxima than the default).
Yacas is another CAS system that is free that may do what you want. (You will need to Google for it). You could also try Sage it has Maxima and lots of other mathematical toys built into the default distribution. Xcas will also do what you want. But I find none of these a friendly as Maxima under the wxMaxima interface.

Free comic book week at Bay County Library | MyPanhandle.com | WMBB-TV
Posted: Sep 22, 2020 / 07:40 PM CDT / Updated: Sep 23, 2020 / 02:12 PM CDT
PANAMA CITY, Fla. (WMBB) — Things have been a little different this year and the Bay County Library's free comic book day is no exception.
Parents, kids, and adult comic book fans can get four free comic books just for them, simply by visiting the library and calling the main number to ask for a drop-off.
Librarians say comic books offer both fun and nourishment for the mind.
"Comics is just another way of reading," Kat Kan, a librarian at the Bay County Library said, "and it does, as my shirt says, exercise your whole brain. Because your right side of the brain is interpreting the pictures and the left side of your brain is reading the words and so you get the whole story through that way."

COSTA RICA: July 1st Implementation of Tax Reforms Compels Corporate Adaptation - Auxadi
You are here:Home/Tax/COSTA RICA: July 1st Implementation of Tax Reforms Compels Corporate Adaptation
COSTA RICA: July 1st Implementation of Tax Reforms Compels Corporate Adaptation
Santiago González Alvarez2019-05-23T12:34:45+02:0016/05/2019|Categories: Tax|Tags: Costa Rica|
Last December the Costa Rican government approved the Law on Strengthening Public Finances, an important tax reform with numerous changes that will affect companies that operate in the country. This reform will impact companies not only because of the fiscal impact, but also because of its effect in the areas of accounting, management, billing, sales and marketing.
The law proposes modifications to the VAT tax, with new rates and expanded categories of taxable products. It also includes adjustments to income tax and a reduction of wage benefits to public workers. Some of the measures have been implemented since their approval, becoming effective at the end of 2018 and into the beginning of 2019, but an additional block of measures is set to come into effect on July 1, 2019. The upcoming changes target tax management and consolidation, aiming to increase revenue and manage expenses for the country.
In this sense, the basic elements of government reform that will directly affect companies are:
Substitution of the current sales tax by a generalized system of Value Added Tax (VAT)
Another relevant aspect, which will affect all taxpayers, is the change of fiscal year, adjusted to coincide with the calendar year. The fiscal year that formerly ended on September 30th will transition to be governed by the calendar year, starting on January 1st and closing on December 31st.
Generalized VAT system
Due to its immediate impact on companies, the introduction of a system of indirect tax is particularly important. The tax is similar to VAT, which will replace the current General Sales Tax.
Currently, the latter applies a rate of 13%, but only taxes a limited number of products and in a single phase. With the introduction of the Value Added Tax on July 1st, the majority of products and services will be taxable throughout the various phases of production and distribution. Services provided by professionals such as lawyers, doctors, engineers, dentists, and accountants, among others, will also became subject to VAT.
The general tax rate will remain at 13%, but reduced rates will be introduced, including rates of 4%, 2% and 1% for certain products and services of primary necessity. For example, medical products, raw materials, and machinery used for production will be taxed at 2%, while basic foods included in a specific list will be taxed at 1%.
The Law of Strengthening of Public Finances contemplates some exemptions for certain products and services, among them:
Export of goods and sale of goods and services for free trade zones
Rental of houses when the amount of the rent is less than the equivalent of 1.5 times the minimum wage (CRC 646,000)
Enrollment in public universities and private education
Advertising space for radio and television programs
Interest and costs for loans and credits
On the other hand, important Income Tax updates are introduced that affect companies. Among the changes, we highlight:
A 15% tax rate for real estate and investment income. The capital contributions made by the shareholders, as well as the capital refunds when the company retains earnings, will also be taxed
Interest tax on investment certificates will increase from 8% to 15%
A withholding tax of 2.5%, which will affect non-domiciled individuals or legal entities that own real estate in Costa Rica and sell said assets
Companies that either operate or are considering operating in Costa Rica will have to adapt quickly to these fiscal changes (by July 1st), and adjust their accounting and tax management, billing, and support systems. They will also need to address their relationships with consumers and customers, who may see their prices rise due to the application of the new VAT rate. This increases the importance to involve the Marketing and Sales departments in the corporate adaption process in order to avoid losing competitive advantages.

SoTL Scholar Spotlight: Elizabeth Hall | Center for Teaching Excellence
Home / SoTL Scholar Spotlight: Elizabeth Hall
SoTL Scholar Spotlight is a new CTE series that will feature a different faculty member who participated in our SoTL Scholars program. The Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) is a framework designed to guide instructors through the systematic study of teaching and learning. Our program supports faculty in developing a classroom-focused research project that can enhance teaching for themselves and others. By highlighting their contributions to the SoTL community in this new series, we hope to make their work more visible and connect instructors across the University who may be interested in collaborations.
For our first Spotlight, we checked in with French Assistant Professor Elizabeth Hall. She joined the 2020-2021 cohort and shares what she has learned in the program as well as from her project.
A: I generally like doing the CTE programs because they allow me to take time to focus on teaching and to reflect on my methods. The SoTL program appealed to me because I have recently pivoted in my career from a focus on literary research to a focus on language teaching and teaching methodology. I liked the idea of doing a systematic investigation of one aspect of learning in my classroom.
Q: For your SoTL project, what did you set out to learn about your students' learning? What was your research question?
A: I started the program thinking that I would look at learning objectives and outcomes in student writing across the semester, but the program's initial attention on developing and writing research questions led me to broaden my study to one that asks in what particular areas of the language curriculum students are meeting or not meeting expectations, who is being left behind, and how we can start to identify the obstacles to student learning in order to find paths to greater success. I set out to take a close look at course design and to study how learning objectives line up with learning outcomes. My final research question allowed me to look at this issue with a focus on diversity and equity.
Q: How do you plan to share your work with the SoTL community?
A: I have preliminary findings that do show that there are particular areas in which students are struggling to meet expectations (quizzes, tests, final exam), and that BIPOC (black, indigenous, and other people of color) students are meeting expectations at a lower rate within these components and for the course as a whole. I am still working through the data analysis to refine the results, and I have submitted an abstract to an international SoTL-focused conference.
Q: How have your study findings informed your teaching?
A: The study has reinforced some of my teaching methods, namely specifications grading, because it focuses on learning outcomes as a process rather than in terms of one-time performances on tests and quizzes. In this alternative grading system, students have a mechanism for retaking tests and revising assignments in order to meet the required criteria. Through my study, I also have begun to reflect on and to start a conversation about curricular design and equity in the language classroom, and how we can improve our methods so that all students succeed.
A: It gives value to the work we do in the classroom, and to me as a general faculty member on the teaching track. It also brings me into a community of scholars with similar interests in a variety of fields. It keeps me thinking and reflecting on my work in the classroom and how to improve the learning experience for everyone.
As Elizabeth said, she is currently working on a conference paper and hopes to turn that into at least one research article.
Look out for another SoTL Scholar Spotlight coming soon! Plus, later this fall, the CTE will be launching a SoTL newsletter, which will contain interesting research, events, and much more—sign up now!

Triple Layer Fudgy Mint Brownies | Just A Pinch Recipes
Triple Layer Fudgy Mint Brownies
2 photos of Triple Layer Fudgy Mint Brownies
By Maya Turnor
@MayaBCookin
This is a hit with everyone! I have never met a person who doesn't enjoy it. Never left overs!
semi-sweet baking chocolate or dark chocolate (depending on taste)
espresso or brewed coffee (optional)
MINTY LAYERS
peppermint extract (flavor to taste i usually use almost 3/4 tsp)
drops of green food coloring (depending on color wanted)
How to Make Triple Layer Fudgy Mint Brownies
Brownies -
Preheat oven to 350F. Line 9×13 inch pan with foil, spray with cooking spray; set aside. Alternately, use a 9-by-9-inch pan for thicker brownies, which is my preference. I don't usually use the foil I like my glass baking dishes.
Microwave chocolate and butter in large microwaveable bowl for 90 seconds or until butter is melted. Stir until chocolate is completely melted and smooth. Stir in sugars. Stir in eggs and vanilla. If adding espresso or coffee, add it now; batter will be a bit granular and that's okay. Stir in flour until just combined, do not over mix. Pour into prepared pan.
Add the Nutella to the top of the brownie mixture and either just leave it sit on top or marble it with a knife in a zig-zag pattern.
Bake for 25 to 28 minutes, or until edges pull away from the side of the pan and top and center have just set. Keep these gooey and don't over bake; brownies will continue to firm up as they cool.
Minty Layers -
In medium bowl, stir together marshmallow fluff, mint extract* (be very careful and do not use more than this unless you love mint; a little bit of mint goes a very long way), 4 drops of food coloring, or until your green is achieved.

Good vibes: It’s the Woodstock generation's mantra that has been passed down to the festival junkies of the 21st century. It may seem like a bunch of hippie hullabaloo, but what if the concept of good vibes could actually change your life?
No, you don’t have to live out of an old 70s van, dreadlock your hair or smoke weed every day to make it happen. However, you might just want to do so. It turns out the concept of good vibes actually has a scientific and philosophic background.
It’s basically a modern way of explaining the law of attraction, a philosophical movement that dates back to 1901. The law of attraction states, in simple terms, that the energy you put into the universe will dictate the world around you.
So, in theory, if you simply think positive thoughts and send positive vibes out into the universe, your life will be better.
It may sound like a bunch of flower-child nonsense, but think about it: How many times have you stubbed your toe getting out of bed, or spilled your coffee in the morning and had your whole day go downhill from there? It’s the law of attraction.
If you wake up and sh*tty things are already happening to you, you’re more likely to be pissed about everything as you move forward with your day.
As you stub your toe or spill your coffee, you’re sending negative energy out into the universe. After that, the universe will respond to your negative energy with more negativity.
So, you might be asking, where’s the science? How on earth can we be expected to believe that we can control the world around us simply with our thoughts? Attraction.
This is where science meets philosophy. Every thought that’s ever crossed your mind has its own wavelength. If you’re thinking, “OMG, I really want pizza right now,” that thought has a different pattern than “Zac Efron is so f*cking hot; I literally can’t even.”
Depending on the frequency of thoughts you put out, the universe will give you an answer, like two magnets slowly growing closer and closer. Your thoughts and your energy will attract the kind of world in which you will live.
It’s important to be aware of your state of mind when it comes to the law of attraction. Obviously, you don’t need me to tell you that you feel differently when you’re ecstatic than you do when in despair. They key is to maintain a positive state of mind.
When you have a brighter outlook on life and your future, it only makes sense that a bright future will follow. If it still seems like a bit much, here’s how to make the law of attraction work for you in five simple steps:
1. Know what you want
Be confident in what you want to ask the universe to give you; make sure you want it with your whole heart and soul.
2. Ask the universe
Visualize what you want as if it’s already yours, and imagine sending a mental picture of it out into the universe. The more detailed, the better.
3. Be confident
Imagine how you’ll feel once you’re rewarded with your wish. Keep a positive state of mind and imagine that you already have it. The stronger your faith, the quicker your reward will come to you.
4. Be grateful
Thank the universe for all of the wonderful things you’ve received in your life thus far. This will increase your positive state of mind and send more good vibes out into the universe.
5. Trust
If your wish doesn’t appear right away and all you can think about is not getting it, you won't attract it. The universe doesn’t care if your thoughts are positive or negative. Remember Henry Ford's thought: "Whether you think you can or you can’t, you’re right." Be patient and know that your wish will be granted.
It only sounds ridiculous because we’re used to thinking of ourselves as separate entities from Earth. Sure, we live here, but we think we’re just here to live our lives, make our marks and use the Earth as we please. But, that’s a different argument for a different article on a different day.
In reality, our worlds are so much stronger. We are living with the Earth, and if we can learn how to do it properly, we can make our lives whatever we want them to be. Not bad for a hippie lifestyle, huh?

For designers of both CU and PU scrap kits...
Tagger and personal size to join our monthly blog trains :)
Need info? [email protected]
So this is how this train works----
...There is a monthly theme for a train
...You sign the database if you wish to participate that month {now I know sometimes last minute stuff comes up and that's fine..just keep me informed so you aren't on the blog list if not going to have anything up}
...There is a color palette for everyone to work from so everything kinda runs together.
...It can be most anything...word are, quick pages, scrap kits, CU items....etc....use ur imagination..so long as it goes with the train theme
...There is no minimum or maximum to contribute
...I do ask that your contributed item remains free and downloadable for that month...after u may do as u wish
...I don't want to limit my train to any one 'concept' I want everyone to be able to play
Right now it's just starting..so I have no idea how many people we'll have for the first one...But if everyone who joins during round one...helps get the word out too...it'll be huge before we know it....
December's train goal is to have 20 participates. :)
I'll also be looking for an assistant in there as well....so that there's 2 of us with eyes to keep track of everything....there will also be a blog for it that is the main station headquarters :)...and, as always...I'm open to ideas :)

What actually moves when a scope "shifts" - Shooting the breeze
What actually moves when a scope "shifts"
#1 17th September 2013, 05:44 PM
This may be a silly question but when a scope is said to shift at a particular temperature what actually shifts Is it the optics/lenses that move so that when you range in the normal way you actually come up with the wrong range which then means you dial in the wrong number of clicks for the shot or
Is it the elevation mechanism that moves so that you range in the normal way and get the correct range but when you dial in the correct number of clicks the point of aim moves to the wrong spot or
both Lol Moore
#2 17th September 2013, 05:51 PM
It has to be a lens carrier of sone description or a part inside the parallax mechanism
#3 17th September 2013, 06:06 PM
so does that mean you actually range wrong and concequently apply the wrong number of clicks and so miss Lol Moore
#4 17th September 2013, 06:10 PM
Yep. I suspect it's either the parallax tube along which a coil shaped groove runs which moves the lens as the wheel moves. That or what the lens sits in inside the groove. I think different scopes use different materials and slightly different designs. And added to which the way the coil shaped groove is shaped may increase or decrease the problem. I'd say there's a fair bit of maths involved in getting the parallax to work how we like it vs lens characteristics. I'd say without chopping one in half there's probably not much to add. I've seen one of my scopes xrayed and chatted to the khales designer and that's as much as I've been able to guess at. Khales guy confirmed my theory of how the parallax worked on a sidewheel scope. Reckon the ideal way will be to chop up a make of scope known not to shift, of not shift a lot and compare to one that does and perhaps one that shifts like a flick switch.
#5 17th September 2013, 06:55 PM
I think it was back last winter when I did a simple experiment. I placed two rifle+scope rigs on a bench outside with a digital thermometer taped to the scope box to display the temp drop, with ambient temps in the sub-zero. I focussed at high mag on a branch at the back of the garden (with the 50ft lens the wheel was in the tricky 50-55 yd range). Then as the temp dropped I checked the focus without touching anything. The image was always near as dammit in focus but when I gave the sidewheel a big movement (end stop to end stop) and re-focussed the wheel indicator was 'shifted'. So for the scopes I tested (Nikko and Leups) the optics don't shift but the mechanism does end up with an offset as Rob described. As others find once the temp drops below some value the shift stops. Slightly more puzzling, I sometimes find there is a residual offset when it all warms back up above the shift temp. Which bugs me no end :-)
#6 17th September 2013, 06:55 PM
Think about a front focussing scope for a moment; what is the gap between say 50 and 55 yards on the front ring? Maybe 10mm between them?
Now, the AO scope works by effectively unscrewing the front element (or group) to focus on closer objects. The movement from 55 to 50 yards represents a very small increase in the length of the scope. Probably around 0.1mm.
Take that same scope and warm it up from 5 degrees to 25 degrees; the increase is 20. From O level physics we recall that the scope increases in length due to thermal expansion, and if you know the coefficient of expansion for the metal in use you can work it out. For aluminium, it's 0.000022 per degree.
If the scope is say 400mm long, then the increase in length in this example is 400mm x 20 degrees x 0.000022 which comes to 0.176mm.
So the scope has grown more in length due to temperature increase than by being refocussed from 55 to 50 yards.
Frankly it's a real surprise and an achievement that scopes shift so little with temperature.
#7 17th September 2013, 07:32 PM
Inside the scope the range of movement of the pa assembly is in the order of inches. I think it works in reverse to the ao system. In ao the end lens moves and the rest stay in place. In a sidewheel the end lens stays put and the pa lens set inside moves back and forth. I believe it actually turns following a coiled path. The shape of the path can be linear like the coils in normal spring or progressive so the coils are tighter at one end than the other. What keeps the lens on the coiled path I'm not sure of but I wonder if its this area that sees slack or tightness rather than the tube expanding or contracting. I've got a scope that's shot away so may take it to bits.
#8 17th September 2013, 10:36 PM
The 'expanding scope' seems a likely theory!
As Rich say's it's only a tiny movement to give you a false px reading...
#9 18th September 2013, 01:28 PM
Is it the elevation mechanism that moves so that you range in the normal way and get the correct range but when you dial in the correct number of clicks the point of aim moves to the wrong spot If you would suspect that this might be a problem: there's an easy test you can do yourself. Take a fairly large paper target at short range, say, 8 yards, and fire off three shots. Start at your zero position for 8 yards somewhere at the top left. This will be your aim point for the entire excercise.
Then, dial all the way through your range up to where you come off highest (somewhere in between 20 and 30 yards I suspect), and shoot three times, aiming at the same point.
Now dial a full turn to the right, shoot three times, again aiming at the same point.
Now dial the elevation turret back to 9 yards, leaving the windage turret untouched. Fire three shots, still aming at the aim point mentioned in step 1.
Lastly, dial the windage turret back to the left a full turn, and fire off a shot.
If your turrets work well, you should now be back to exactly where you started, and the four groups you shot should form a nice square. I've done this with all scopes my wife and I have or have had, and there was only one that malperformed - a very crummy 4x20 scope. All others (more than a handful of Swifts, a Falcon, two BSA Platinums, a BSA 8-32x44, and an Optisan El Cheapo 3-9x42) stood the test with flying colours.
#10 18th September 2013, 02:42 PM

Start at your zero position for 8 yards somewhere at the top left. This will be your aim point for the entire excercise.
Thanks for that will have to give it a try ....however
Its not actually what i was getting at, I was wondering what actually moves in the scope to cause shift and why is it a step change, if it was simply expansion surely it would be gradual unless something "clicked" out of place as the expansion reached a certain point The comment of Rich, we are lucky its not much worse, rings true for me, the engineering must be exceptional not to get more shift than we do
From your description of the "square test" and the results that only one scope has failed is it not too easy, should it not be at longer range to magnify any errors - if everything passes not a real test Lol Moore

Who is a Better Filter, Caucus Attendees or Primary Voters? | Utah Data Points
← On Count My Vote, Who is Toeing the Party Line?
How busy has the Legislature been so far? →
Every system requires trade-offs between competing values. But we ought not to pretend that one set of filters has virtues that are simply not present.
In a previous post, I examined the relationship between attitudes in the public and support for the Count My Vote initiative. That post showed that support for the reform was strong across all groups except for one: those who are the most conservative and consider themselves active supporters of the Tea Party. Even half of all strong Republicans support the reform. Opposition is confined to a specific group within the Republican Party.
That kind of argument does not matter to some. They base their argument not on what large segments of the public want but on ideas about how the political system functions. That is fair. Arguments about the proper political system do not start and end with public opinion. Indeed, many of the arguments, such as the one promoted by Paul Mero, rest on the method by which public opinion gets filtered.
As he so eloquently states, "we have to find nonintrusive ways to filter the negative impact of irresponsible citizenship – irresponsible meaning single-issue voters, special-interest parasites, and uninformed citizens who think and vote based on selfish emotions. Utah's caucus and convention system is that filter. And it works."
Mero's political system looks like Model 1. In this case delegates selected at the neighborhood caucuses provide the filter between public opinion and the nomination.
Model 2 is the system proposed by the Count My Vote initiative. In this case, those who participate in the primary system provide the filter between public opinion and the nomination.
The soundness of Mero's argument rests on the quality of the filter. According to him, primary voters are "single-issue voters, special interest parasites, and uninformed citizens who think and vote on selfish emotions."
These are empirical questions. One easily tested proposition is that those who are most likely to attend a caucus or convention are more informed than those who are less likely to attend. In the previous post, we showed that those who were most supportive of the neighborhood caucus system were strong conservatives who identified with the Republican party.
Just after the caucuses in 2012, my colleagues and I asked participants in the Utah Voter Poll whether or not they attended their neighborhood caucus meetings. This question allows us to examine whether self-reported caucus participants are better educated or more knowledgeable than non-participants. (The Utah Voter Poll is a sample of voters only, so those who do not participate in Utah politics in any way are excluded.)
With respect to education, in our sample both caucus attenders and non-attending voters are highly educated – on average, they have had some college-level schooling. To illustrate this point, below is a figure showing the average education levels of our two groups on a 6-point education scale ranging from some high school or less all the way to post-graduate education. There is essentially no difference between the two groups. The average education level for self-reported caucus attenders is 4.14 (which is the equivalent of having some college), and the average education for those who are less likely to attend caucuses is 3.92. The difference between those averages is not statistically significant in our sample.
But what about levels of knowledge about Utah or national politics? Do those who actually attend the caucuses know more about the political system? To answer that question, I took advantage of the fact that the Utah Voter Poll is a panel of voters, many of whom have answered our survey questions at several different points in time. In March of 2013, my colleagues and I asked respondents to our Utah Voter Poll a series of simple factual questions about state and national politics. (See my colleague Adam Brown's discussion of the questions and the results here). We matched the survey responses from 2012 about caucus attendance with those same individuals' 2013 responses to the knowledge questions. In all, we have over 200 Utah voters who answered both the caucus attendance question and the knowledge questions.
As the figure below shows, caucus attenders appear to be slightly more knowledgeable than non-attenders, but the differences are small and not statistically significant. (In other words, we cannot be sure that the difference between the two groups is greater than zero.) The figure below compares the average number of knowledge questions self-reported caucus attenders got right with the average for those who did not attend. The brackets show the 95% confidence interval for each average. Individuals who attend the caucus do not have all that much more political knowledge than individuals who do not attend.
The other thing to remember is that the primary electorate includes the caucus attenders, and when we account for that fact, the already small gap shown above narrows even more. In other words, it does not appear that one group is highly knowledgeable, while the other group is ignorant of Utah or national politics. In fact, the far more noticeable trend is that knowledge of Utah politics is low among both groups. Of the four questions about Utah politics we asked, both caucus attenders and non-attenders got about half right and half wrong, on average. Both groups did much better in answering the six questions about national politics, where the average was 70% to 80% correct.
Thus, it does not appear that education or political knowledge are the defining factors that separate caucus attenders from non-attenders. The difference between these two groups is not levels of information, but rather ideology: research from the Center for the Study of Elections and Democracy shows that caucus attenders and delegates are much more ideological, even after controlling for knowledge, gender, income, etc. This result is true in Utah and nationally.
The profound differences in ideology can be seen in the figure below, which shows the proportion of Republican caucus attenders and non-attenders in Utah who identify as strong conservatives. (This analysis also focuses on the UVP respondents who answered both the caucus and the knowledge questions, but this time, we zero in on Republicans because Democrats have a different ideological mix.) Fully 50 percent of Republican caucus attenders describe themselves as "strongly conservative," compared to about 30 percent of non-attenders, who tend to be more moderate. And unlike the relatively small knowledge differences, this 20-point difference in ideology is statistically significant. (In other words, we are very confident that the difference is not zero.)
Some advocates of the caucus system would say that this ideological difference is a good thing: perhaps the strongest conservatives should choose the Republican nominee. But that is a very different argument than the one Paul Mero articulates above. And having a nomination system that privileges the most intense ideologues also has a downside: it essentially means that those who choose the candidates in a caucus system tend to wear thick ideological lenses as they view and assess the candidates. Such lenses often lead to what social scientists call "motivated reasoning," a phenomenon where individuals' choices are dictated primarily by their ideological dispositions.
I grant that no nomination system – no filter between public opinion and nominations – is perfect. Every system requires trade-offs between competing values. But we ought not to pretend that one set of filters has virtues that are simply not present. As Utahns make their choices about the process, they should be fully cognizant of what they specifically gain and lose when they make the nomination process dependent on this particular group of individuals.
On Count My Vote, Who is Toeing the Party Line? (February 18, 2014)
Background research on Utah's caucus-convention system (January 8, 2013)

10 Responses to Who is a Better Filter, Caucus Attendees or Primary Voters?
So you didn't ask the delegates their knowledge whose responsibility is to be in the know. Just those who elect them on caucus night? Plus did you ask them ideological questions concerning utah politics? Such the BLM issues, Utopia, gay marriage amendment, attorney general issues etc. If i were to ask lds people to name all 12 apostles I bet they would score lower than if I asked them basic doctrinal issues. Knowing issues is far more important than knowing who your minority leader is in the state legislature.
You ask good questions. This isn't my post, but a few quick comments.
(1) Delegates vs attendees. I agree that delegates would be an even more relevant comparison group, although looking at those who choose the delegates (i.e. attendees) is also relevant.
(2) For ideological questions (general questions, not the specific ones you mention), take a look at the author's previous post. This post is about knowledge levels, not ideology, but the previous post was about ideology (broadly construed).
(3) You're correct that knowing political names is generally less important than knowing a bit about policy, and your analogy to knowing the apostles vs doctrine is apt. But given that we're looking at people within an electoral context who are choosing which specific people will hold office, it would seem that the names are also important. Especially when the names in question aren't the minority leader, but rather the Speaker of the House, the Senate President, and the Lieutenant Governor.
Help me understand. You had roughly 200 respondents self-select your survey, and you are taking a snapshot with that small number? Demographically, did they match the average Utah primary voter? Caucus attendee? What would the margin of error for this be "survey" be, 12-15%? If one of your students presented a finding with this margin of error would you not challenge them to find a much more reliable source of data? Of the 200 how many attended caucuses, how many did not?
And in the end even this unreliable sample size demonstrates that the caucus attendee is more knowledgeable, though it is not statistically significant for many reasons. Of course methodology being a candidate.
Please, replicate this theory with viable numbers and share those with us. I don't want to be too cross but this is something the SL Tribune would run with, not a reliable source.
Though this isn't my post, here are a few quick thoughts.
(1) Respondents didn't self-select into the survey. They were recruited in.
(2) This margin of error calculator suggests that the margin of error is around 7 percentage points (assuming a 50-50 split on a yes/no question; as the split approaches 0-100, the margin declines).
(3) A survey's reliability is driven by its sampling method, not its size. The method is a random sample of Utahns who voted in recent elections. You're correct that comparing the demographics would be a nice check on whether the random selection "worked" or not.
(4) Because the findings are statistically insignificant (not for "many reasons," just for one — the difference is within the margin of error), it is inappropriate to conclude that this analysis demonstrates anything.
I agree that replication is always a good thing, and if I had funds to commission a survey on every question that interested me, respondents would get sick of answering questions long before I got sick of asking them.
Lorie Fowlke says:
As an attorney I can make a good argument for both sides but we should note that what the survey does not address is that the delegates selected by the caucus do become more knowledgeable about the candidates and issues between the time of the caucus meetings and the convention.
It would be interesting to see this analysis/study extended to add specific study of the delegates themselves (you may have already done something similar as I know you study delegates from time to time). I realize that the delegates are a subset of the caucus attendees; but, I would be interested to see if there is any significant difference between the delegates, the caucus attendees, and the primary voters in general.
As I see it, the real filter here is the delegates themselves and not the caucus attendees. So I would be interested to see some study of that specific filter. The caucus attendees may not have much more political knowledge or awareness than the average primary voter as this study shows, but perhaps they vote for people (delegates) who do (or perhaps not, but it would be interesting to see that data).
Great work, thanks for providing this sort of relevant and timely study and data on our state political institutions.
Here are surveys of the delegates (both parties) from 2012 (click here then find the links to download the PDFs). The questions deal with priorities other than knowledge/education, but they're still interesting.
Josh and Laurie,
As Adam points out, this is not my post, but I'm familiar with these data, so I'll weigh in a bit here, too. You've asked some great questions. I wish we had more information about the political knowledge of the delegates who emerge from the neighborhood caucus process. Perhaps that will be a subject of study in the future. It's clear we need more questions, though as Adam rightly makes clear, people get tired of answering our questions before we get tired of asking them!
In terms of the issue of representativeness, however, what we know is that delegates are even less representative (in terms of ideology, issue positions, gender, and several other attributes) than the caucus attenders. That is, the neighborhood caucus meetings are not particularly representative of the party generally, but delegates are even less so. Delegates have stronger opinions and are more "extreme" ideologically (I don't mean that in a pejorative sense, but rather as a description of those who are more committed to a certain ideology). Some would argue that's a good thing: maybe the most conservative or liberal partisans should choose the nominee, but not all strong partisans are committed idealogues. In fact, successful parties generally want to be "big tents," including a mix of interests and ideologies. If the nomination process is left to only those with a certain set of ideological commitments, then the full spectrum of opinion in the party is unlikely to be represented.
What's more, the delegates do not tend to see their purpose as representing the views of their home neighborhood or of the party generally. In the jargon of the political science literature, they see themselves as "trustees," not "delegates." In other words, they take seriously the idea that they should make their own decisions based on their interactions with the candidates, and they don't feel their purpose is to follow the preferences of their neighbors back home (or of the party more broadly). Again, whether that's a good thing or a bad thing is probably in the eye of the beholder, but the important thing is to be clear about the tendencies in each system. Any system has virtues and vices (a primary system comes with its own set of problems, too), and the challenge for Utahns right now is to decide which balance of virtues and vices they prefer.
IOW, delegates tend to see themselves like any other leader, such as congressmen – they have a duty to "lead," perhaps within the confines of the voters' wishes, perhaps not. Whatever the disadvantages of selecting ideologues, they at least are more likely to understand that certain desires (e.g., more government but less taxes) are simply irreconcilable with one another.
It seems rather late to be getting to the question of the superiority of a convention vs. primary, however. There are dozens of states with primaries substantially like SB 54/CMV. How do they compare? Given the voters' overwhelmingly Republican tilt, Utah pols don't seem to be particularly extreme or corrupt.
There is a reason Count My Vote was backed by many of the richest people in the state, and that reason had nothing to do with the best interests of the people.
"The other thing to remember is that the primary electorate includes the caucus attenders, and when we account for that fact, the already small gap shown above narrows even more. "
When you extract caucus attendees from the primary voters, the knowledge gap widens. It's the "Bill Gates walks into a coffee shop and the average patron is a billionaire" effect. The gap between delegates – often well-educated, well-regarded members of their neighborhoods – and primary voters is even larger. In terms of knowledge: delegates > caucus-goers > primary voters. And that's before the delegates begin to meet with the candidates.
The ideal political system CMV pretended to be selling does not exist. The real question is whether the filter will be convention delegates or whether it will be money – money provided by special interests who pour millions of dollars into campaigns like Bennett's in exchange for favors. You can criticize convention delegates all you want, but the fact that they tossed out Bennett, who as a member of the banking committee was responsible for regulating the very industry that collapsed our economy, is a strong argument in the delegates' favor. They were not responsible for the quality of the alternatives to Bennett. They were responsible for throwing out an incompetent incumbent, which they did.
The real world of politics is not "may the best man win." It is about very well-funded incumbents, competent or not, versus their practically anonymous challengers. It is about holding incumbents accountable each cycle. The system put in place by S.B. 54, thanks to Count My Vote, will result in a greater advantage to incumbents, who can now mobilize their campaign war chests and high name ID to win in primaries with no runoffs. Jason Chaffetz beat Chris Cannon quite handily in 2008 because he was the unpopular Cannon's sole opponent. Had Cannon faced multiple challengers, unpopular as he was, he still may have won. That does not speak well for Count My Vote.

Welcome to our city tours. Members can add their favorite videos about the city they live in or of interesting events taking place there. The focus on this is Southern California featuring the city of Rancho Palos Verdes, CA
Sitting atop the Palos Verdes Hills and bluffs of the Palos Verdes Peninsula, it is known for expansive views of the Pacific Ocean. The history of Rancho Palos Verdes dates back to the Spanish explorers and the establishment of the first Spanish rancho land grant in California. Its most notable geographic features are the Palos Verdes Hills and cliffs with grand vistas of the Pacific Ocean, with views of Santa Catalina Island. Its most notorious geographic feature is the continuous landslide at Portuguese Bend, which may have been caused in part by septic runoff from homes in Rancho Palos Verdes and its neighboring communities.Wayfarers Chapel designed by Lloyd Wright and built between 1949 - 1951 is on the National Register of Historic Places. Point Vicente Lighthouse was built in 1926 and is also on the National Register of Historic Places. Point Vicente Interpretive Center opened in 1984 with a mission to present and interpret the unique features and history of the Palos Verdes Peninsula. The almost 10,000-square-foot (930 m2) expanded Interpretive Center, re-opened on July 15, 2006, features exhibits on the natural and cultural history of the Peninsula, with a special emphasis on the Pacific gray whale. This premier whale watch site provides spectacular opportunities to view the annual migration of the Pacific gray whale, from December through April. The former Marineland of the Pacific (1954–1987) site was re-developed and is now occupied by the Terranea Resort, which opened in June, 2009. The city is also home to Trump National golf course, one of eleven in the Trump portfolio of courses. Portuguese Bend landslide, one of the largest continuously moving landslides in North America, is located along the southern coastal area. Together with the Palos Verdes Peninsula Land Conservancy, in 2009 the city completed the acquisition of a total of two square miles of open space land, the Palos Verdes Nature Preserve, the largest such preserve of coastal open space north of San Diego and south of Santa Barbara.

APJ Newsletter: Gibbs to leave White House
Gibbs to leave White House
White House spokesman Robert Gibbs confirmed today he will leave next month to set up his own consulting business and become an outside political adviser to President Obama.
Gibbs is likely to discuss the move in a briefing later today.
Obama, in a telephone interview with The New York Times, said Gibbs will remain a close adviser and "will continue to shape the dialogue politically for many years to come."
The spokesman's departure is scheduled for early February after the president's State of the Union speech, which is tentatively set for Jan. 25.
Gibbs first went to work for Obama during his 2004 U.S. Senate campaign. The president told The Times:
There was no announcement about a successor to Gibbs. Among the contenders: Bill Burton, deputy spokesman, and Jay Carney, communication director for Vice President Biden.
Gibbs' move is part of an overall series of White House personnel moves, including a new director of the National Economic Council and, possibly, a new White House chief of staff.
Obama is talking with Clinton administration Commerce Secretary William Daley about the possibility of being chief of staff, though it's possible that interim chief Pete Rouse could keep the job full time.
"You'll be seeing announcements in due course," Obama told The New York Times. "Obviously, we've got a lot of work to do. The American people are expecting us to hit the ground running and start working with this new Congress to promote job growth and keep the recovery going."
As for Gibbs, Obama said, "Robert, on the podium, has been extraordinary. Off the podium, he has been one of my closet advisers. He is going to continue to have my ear for as long as I'm in this job."
It's long been suspected that Gibbs would leave the podium around the two-year mark of the Obama presidency. One option for him was another White House post, perhaps replacing David Axelrod as that senior adviser returns to Chicago to set up Obama's 2012 re-election campaign.
The possibility that Gibbs would leave the White House entirely surfaced recently, though he will probably remain a very public voice on behalf of Obama.
Potential models are James Carville and Paul Begala, major architects of President Bill Clinton's election in 1992. Afterward, they maintained a private consulting firm and served as prominent outside spokesmen throughout the Clinton presidency, including during his 1996 re-election bid.

Former SEAL (and current CIA agent) arrested for smuggling thousands of pounds of pot
More evidence showing that the CIA, US government and law enforcement play a role in drug smuggling. This is just one case, after decades of similar events. Iran Contra anyone?
A former U.S. Navy SEAL has been arrested and accused of participating in a national drug smuggling operation, according to a story by The State.
James Dennis "J.D." Smith, 49, was accused of conspiring to distribute more than 1,500 pounds of marijuana over the past three years. If convicted, he could face up to 40 years in federal prison. Two others, Carl and Bryon Rye, were also arrested in the raid and face the same charges. Smith was arrested in Charlotte on Saturday while the two brothers were apprehended in Columbia, South Carolina later that same day.
Smith was a SEAL for 16 years until he was recruited to work for the CIA. He earned a Bronze Star with V for heroism in combat as well as the Special Operations Medic of the Year award while he was serving as a SEAL in Iraq, according to The State.
According to The State, some of the marijuana which allegedly belonged to Carl Rye was acquired legally in California, but was marked "unlawful to redistribute."

Edelweiss Tokio Life-GCAP is a non-participating, non-linked life insurance plan that has been designed for individuals who are keen on wealth accumulation. It is a guaranteed wealth return plan that offers accrual addition helping you to maximize your money by helping you to enjoy the best returns.
Eligibility- Who is the Edelweiss Tokio Life- GCAP Plan for?
Entry age Minimum - 91 days Maximum - 55 years
Maturity age Minimum - 18 years Maximum - 70 years
Minimum Premium Monthly: Rs.1,500 Quarterly: Rs.4,000 Semi-Annual: Rs.8,000 Annual: Rs.15,000
Sum Assured In case of death:
Minimum: Rs.1,65,000
Cumulative annual premium
Premium Paying Term 5/7/10/12 years
Premium Paying Frequency Monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, or annual
*Premiums may vary depending upon factors like age, location, term of the plan and prevailing GST.
Plan coverage: What Edelweiss Tokio Life-GCAP Plan covers?
This is how Edelweiss Tokio Life-GCAP Plan works:
Guaranteed Accrual Addition: Under this plan, the policyholder receives Guaranteed Accrual Addition (GAA). The amount of GAA payable depends on the gender of the policyholder, annual premium, entry age, premium paying term, and policy term. The policyholder receives the GAA every year beginning from the 9th year of the policy till maturity. The GAA will be accrued at the beginning of every year. The cumulative GAA will be paid by the company on maturity or death.
Loan: A loan can be availed against the Edelweiss Tokio Life – GCAP Plan once it has attained surrender value. A maximum loan amount of 90% of the surrender value can be obtained. For paid-up policies, if the outstanding loan amount and the interests accrued exceed the surrender value, then the policy will be terminated. Upon policy surrender, the demise of the life insured or policy maturity, the outstanding loan amount and interests will be deducted from the benefits payable.
Death Benefit: In an unfortunate event of the death, the death benefit payable will depend on the age of the policyholder:
If the policyholder's entry age is 5 years and above: Sum assured on death plus the cumulative GAA, if any, where the sum assured is higher of:
11 times the annual premium for 5, 7, and 10 pay and 13 times of the annual premium for 12 pay
105% of total paid premiums (excluding the rider premiums, GST, any underwriting extras) till the time of death of the policyholder
If the policyholder's entry age is below 5 years, the risk cover will begin a month before the second anniversary of the policy. In the unfortunate situation of death during the first year and 11 months from the date of commencement of the policy, the nominee will receive 105% of the total paid premiums (excluding GST, any underwriting extras, and rider premiums). Once the risk cover begins, once the risk cover starts, the death benefit will be as per the benefit given for the entry age of 5 years and above. Also, the amount of death benefit will also decrease by the following:
The premiums that haven't been paid in the policy year at the time of the death, in case the life insured had chosen a premium frequency that is not annual
The accumulated interest, due premiums and their interest, and the outstanding loan amount, if any.
Maturity Benefit: On maturity, the policyholder will be paid the sum assured plus the cumulative GAA as mentioned in Annexure A where the sum assured on maturity is as much as the annual premium.
Riders or add-on plans-Additional coverage under the Edelweiss Tokio Life-GCAP Plan
For enhanced protection, you can add the following riders at a nominal additional cost to the Edelweiss Tokio Life – GCAP Plan:
Edelweiss Tokio Life-Income Benefit Rider

In the case of death by suicide within 1 year from the date of policy inception, 80% of the premiums paid is payable to the beneficiary. In the case of death by suicide within 1 year from the date of policy revival, higher of 80% of the premiums paid or surrender value is payable to the beneficiary.
Paid-up status: Premium discontinuance before 3 years' full premium payment will result in policy lapse. Premium discontinuance after 3 years' full premium payment will result in your policy acquiring paid-up status. Paid-up maturity and death benefits are payable upon attaining maturity and in the case of the demise of the life insured, respectively.

Losing Control | The Geeky Librarian
« Review: Jack Kirby's the Demon
Let's talk about controlled vocabularies for a bit. Librarians love them, patrons get frustrated by them, and us techno-geeks just get annoyed that we have to keep having this debate in the first place (yes I'm a cataloger, but try to ignore that for the duration of this post).
So, here's the two sides. On one end, we need to limit the terminology for subject headings to avoid confusion between similar terms and ensure that. Thus materials that would otherwise be sorted into cooking, cookery, cookbooks, and cooks all gets grouped together in a single place (of course given the option we selected the worst label of the bunch).
On the other a controlled vocabulary is very limiting. If you don't know that cookery happens to be the chosen term then the difficulty of searching the catalog skyrockets. A smart system (and most are capable of this) will then bring the user to a screen saying something like "please use cookery instead".
The solution to this confusion as things currently stand is user tagging. It's not a great solution really, but considering that the alternative is recataloging every item in every database out there, it's the lesser of evils. Problem still being that many in the profession fear that compromising the integrity of our carefully controlled vocabulary will ultimately throw out our quality control.
This is a ridiculous notion because there's absolutely no reason the two data sets can't co-exist. With the technology available to us we should be able to provide the means of allowing our patrons to search however they see fit, as long as they are able to use those tools successfully. It really shouldn't matter if someone wants to search for the tag "dogs" or the subject heading "canines" if they'll both work.
So can we please get over this fight and start making some progress at last.

S. Yemen's Policies Seem Unchanged - The Washington Post
S. Yemen's Policies Seem Unchanged
By William Claiborne February 23, 1986
In the aftermath of the bloody upheaval that left thousands dead in Aden and nearby provinces last month, there has been virtually no discernible change in the ideological direction of the ruling Marxist Yemeni Socialist Party.
Nearly six weeks after then-president Ali Nasser Mohammed's bodyguards sprayed a meeting of the Politburo with machine gun fire, setting off a near-civil war, the violence appears on the surface to have represented little more than another of the periodic reshuffles of power that have characterized South Yemen's government for much of the country's 18 years of independence.
The new president, former prime minister Haidar Abu Bakr Attas, has adopted, at least in public pronouncements, essentially the same domestic and foreign policies as his predecessor. It was Nasser Mohammed's ideological drift toward the right that ostensibly was the basis of the intraparty criticism that drove him to try to eliminate his political rivals in the bloody attack on Jan. 13.
But while South Yemen seems to have come out of the crisis still firmly allied with the Soviet Union, one result of the fighting appears to be a markedly lower Soviet profile in the only Marxist country in the Arab world.
The Soviet Embassy is in a state of semiruin, having been the target of Yemeni Army tank fire during the early stages of the fighting. A banner hung beside the Russian diplomatic enclave read, "Stop shooting Soviet citizens!" Witnesses to the first days of fighting said that an Army tank fired several salvos at the embassy and then quickly withdrew, although no explanation was offered for the attack.
Moscow has withdrawn more than 6,000 of its advisers from South Yemen.The port of Aden is devoid of Soviet troopships, and the airport shows no sign of a Soviet presence. Warsaw Pact sources said that only 600 Soviet experts remain at a radio monitoring base on the island of Socotra, about 400 miles from the capital.
Western diplomatic sources here said that the Soviets had deliberately kept a low profile during the fighting, restricting their involvement to offers of mediating a cease-fire at the height of the fighting. South Yemeni government sources said that the Soviet offer was turned down on the third day of fighting because the balance of power had clearly shifted to the anti-Nasser Mohammed forces.
Since the fighting ended, Attas and the half dozen leading party figures, who have dominated political life in South Yemen since the end of British colonial rule in 1967, have echoed a policy line calling for better relations with such conservative Arab states as Saudi Arabia and Oman, calling into question assessments by western analysts at the start of the fighting that the struggle was one between hard-line Marxists and advocates of a softer ideological stance.
While it would be simplistic to say that nothing more than personality conflicts was involved, it is clear now that deep personal rivalries and long-simmering resentment over Nasser Mohammed's attempts to concentrate power into his own hands were the dominant forces that triggered the upheaval and fueled it for such a sustained period. In retrospect, it appears that both sides exploited tribal rivalries in an attempt to tip the balance only after it became clear in the first days of fighting that a prolonged stalemate was likely.
Tribalism and personal rivalries have played a major role in recurrent political intrigue here, often centering on such issues as centralism versus local autonomy and doctrinaire socialism as opposed to pragmatism.
Following independence in 1967, six provinces were drawn by the newly established government in order to erase tribal boundaries and soften tribal allegiance. The key figures in the recent fighting represented those regions -- Nasser Mohammed of the Dathina tribe, vice president Ali Ahmed Nasser Antar of the Aden-based tribes and Attas from the highly independent tribes of the region of Hadramout, whose harsh environment suggests the meaning of its name: "death is present." Antar was killed in the conference room shooting. Nasser Mohammed was reported in Damascus, Syria, recently.
That a violent power struggle erupted within the government came as a surprise to almost no one, according to party leaders and foreign diplomats, who described the ruling 11-member Politburo as a pressure cooker of contention between Nasser Mohammed and his four chief supporters and the six-man opposition faction.
While a harsh blow by Nasser Mohammed against his critics -- or even a coup d'etat by the other side -- was widely anticipated in Aden in the weeks leading up to Jan. 13, nobody expected the degree of violence that accompanied the struggle, which included the use of tanks, gunboats and warplanes in full-scale battle.
Ali Saleh Baid, who survived the conference room machine-gunning and who was later wounded in street fighting, said that he came to the meeting armed with a revolver, indicating that a potentially violent confrontation was not completely unanticipated. But he said he was genuinely stunned at the level of violence that resulted.
"We were not expecting such a thing because the values of our party do not allow such bloodthirsty fascism to take place. It didn't come to our minds that such a thing could happen," Baid said. He said his shock increased as reports came in of massacres of hundreds of party members opposed to Nasser Mohammed.
Nobody knows how many people died in the 12 days of bitter fighting, partly because bodies are not being exhumed from dozens of mass graves that were dug at the sites of massacres and on the spot during raging street battles. Government officials said that thousands of people have been reported missing but that it is impossible to determine how many of them were killed and how many fled.

Express hair service heads to Perth | The West Australian

Express hair service heads to Perth
Wed, 12 September 2012 11:00AM
Women who feel the pressure to look immaculate know that beauty routines can be time consuming and expensive.
The Australian cosmetic and toiletry retail industry is worth an estimated $2.5 billion, according to business analyst IBISWorld.
Facials, body scrubs and wraps, manicures, pedicures, hair removal, fake tanning, make-up, lotions, lash tinting, fake lashes - looking beautiful can cost a small fortune and, in the case of waxing, it can really hurt.
Even pregnant women are not immune to the pressure to look amazing - hence the often-used term "Yummy Mummy".
Men also are willing to part with their hard-earned cash for a touch of "manscaping" and other grooming routines.
And then there is hair. Fashion trends dictate the look of the season when it comes to hair - be it long, short, straight or curly.
Keep an eye on your colleague with the perfectly straightened locks next time it rains or humidity is high - see how quickly she'll run on her sky-high red-soled Louboutins to protect the hair she had professionally blow-dried for $70. Frizzy hair is Immaculate Woman's worst enemy.
Nathan Cuneen thinks he can solve that problem for women working in the CBD. The Eastern States-based franchise owner is thrilled about the opening of Perth's first Blow Dry Bar in the new $500 million Raine Square development.
Mr Cuneen established Blow Dry Bar in Sydney in 2008 and the franchise has grown to 16 salons across Australia, with another 12 under construction and plans to take the concept overseas.
Perth would have 2-3 salons in the next six months.
"The goal is to have 150-200 in Australia and more than 500 in the United States," Mr Cuneen said.
The first Blow Dry Bar concept store in the US has been earmarked for Manhattan in early 2013.
Mr Cuneen said he had identified a gap in the beauty market for hair salons to cater to a demand for quicker and more-affordable services.
"Our goal is to be No.1 in the market," he said.
For $35, women can have their hair washed and blow-dried. The salons also offer cut and colour options, plus treatments and extensions, but 80 per cent of traffic - which encourages walk-ins - is based on blow-drying.
Mr Cuneen said his cheaper and quicker salon options would not be at the expense of quality.
"It's all about the consumer experience and exceptional customer service, so our Blow Dry Bar training academy focuses on providing that," he said.

'It snowed last year too: I made a snowman & my brother knocked it down & I knocked my brother down & then we had tea.' | 30 great Christmas quotes - Books
'It snowed last year too: I made a snowman and my brother knocked it down and I knocked my brother down and then we had tea.'
The Duchess visited Action on Addiction as part of her role as a patron for the charity in December 2015 and wore a blue dress with a flattering pleated skirt by one of her favourite British designers Emilia Wickstead.

Companies should allow women to take up to six years off to focus on raising their families, the FTSE 100’s only woman chairman has said.
The only female chairman of a blue-chip British company has urged employers to allow women to take family-friendly career breaks of up to six years.
Dame Alison Carnwath, who heads property group Land Securities, said companies would see economic benefits from holding on to their best female staff through starting families and beyond instead of losing their most valuable staff.
She said companies were now in a stronger position to allow this practice with better hiring and staff-retention policies.
“Employers have to learn to accommodate you through the mid-life piece,” Dame Alison told the Financial Times.
Professional HR departments would be able to find “measurable economic benefits” in such a strategy, she said, compared with the wasted cost of hiring and training women and then losing them as they try and juggle careers and families.
“It’s much better to keep people in the fold,” she said, both from a pure cost point of view but also in the interests of “continuity of culture”.
The comments are a direct rebuke to a speech by UKIP leader Nigel Farage last month. Mr Farage, a former commodities trader, argued that a mother working in the City of London following a period of child-rearing is “worth far less to the employer when she comes back than when she goes away”.
Dame Alison, who has no children herself, said financial companies, particularly banks, were “very bad” at promoting women. As a non-executive at Barclays, Dame Alison rose to prominence in 2012 after resisting a pay deal, worth a total of close to £25m, for former boss Bob Diamond. She was overruled and later resigned.
Four FTSE 100 companies have women chief executives – easyjet, Imperial Tobacco, Royal Mail and Burberry.
The number of women at the top dropped slightly following departures from Anglo American and Pearson, owner of the FT.
At overall FTSE 100 board level, the proportion of women last month topped 20 per cent for the first time. The government has set a 25 per cent target by 2015.
French police have launched an investigation into the death of a Disneyland Paris worker after his body was found in a Haunted House.
The body of the 45-year old father was found at 10am on Saturday, and it is believed he died of electrocution while carrying out work in the attraction, which showcases ghosts and other sinister themes.
A spokesperson for the prosecutor in nearby Meaux said the man, who has not been identified, was working on the lighting backstage when he died.
An autopsy has not yet been performed, but initial investigations point towards death by accidental electrocution.
An investigation is ongoing," said the spokesman, adding that police and electrics experts were assisting with the enquiry.
A staff union representative at Disneyland Paris, Patrick Maldidier, said the man, who had worked at the park for over a decade, was hugely popular with colleagues and was "always smiling".
A Disneyland spokesperson said management was "deeply saddened" by the man’s death, and sent commiserations to his "family and relatives".
If you want painfully uncompetitive games and teams with superb names, then South African's Nedbank Cup is exactly where to head.
Where else will you see teams with names like Mamelodi Sundowns and Powerlines FC, and scores of 24-0?
Things started badly and got far, far worse for Powerlines, who found themselves 10-0 down at half time.
Arsène Wenger will not be taking any tips on how to rouse a side from a heavy first half defecit, as the visitors eventually ran out 24-0 winners.
Hlompho Kekana scored seven, Nyasha Mushekwi attainted the much-vaunted "triple brace" by scoring six and Richard Henyekane didn't do badly either, scoring five goals.
The scoreline set a new record in South African football, comfortably exceeding AmaZulu’s unforgettable 16-0 Mainstay Cup win against Ford Pirates in 1986.

Manipulating Fabric l Insomnia Nights l Linda Peitz | ArtAK Residency & Gallery
A talk on the social and political relevance of textiles in contemporary art and how Megan Dominescu uses traditional rug-hooking and knitting techniques to make daring and sharp social commentaries on contemporary lifestyles.
Textiles have always been a means of storytelling. Similar to ceramics, glass design or architecture, it has long been reduced to decorative crafts instead of counting as actual art and has often been associated with women rather than men. From rug-hooking, to fibre art, tapestry, weaving, embroidery and knitting, the socially meaningful role of textile materials also becomes apparent in clothing, design, science and technology.
In Megan Dominescu's work, the curator felt that everyday and politically charged situations could become relevant through the use of textile fabrics: by turning an everyday material and technique into a means of expression, while simultaneously subverting its traditional attributes and moral valuation.
Linda Peitz is a creative director, project manager, and curator living in Berlin. She is the founder and director of CCCCCOMAe.V. (Curational Collective Connecting Concepts of Communication and Art) since 2020 and the curator and exhibition manager of the Gallery Ebensperger. As a curator and exhibition manager at the Berlin and Austrian based gallery Ebensoperger, she is responsible for exhibition planning and curating, artist liaisons within the gallery, and the representation of the gallery to collectors, museums, and institutions.

He was nothing more than an assistant with the team at Miami Senior High School, helping out when and where he could, when the head coach of the JV team didn’t show up for work one day. Shakey Rodriguez, a legend in the Miami High School basketball community, told Martin he would be coaching that day, and he hasn’t looked back since.
“By his second season,” Martin’s mother, Lourdes, beaming as she held back tears of joy, said, “he was 22-0.”
Even as Martin was coaching, he was still working on the side, most famously as a bouncer in Miami’s nightclub scene. He needed a degree, so he took night classes at Miami-Dade College before enrolling part-time at FIU. His future was capped if he didn’t graduate.
“He made it out,” she added, holding on to her grandson to steady herself as the moment washed over her. “He had many, many jobs, and then God was up there and blessed him.”
Martin would go from the high school ranks to Northeastern, taking a paycut just to get his foot in the door. He spent four years as an assistant and met his wife — “My wife turned me down seven times to go out on a date,” he said. “Seven. Seven. And the day she made the mistake of going out on a date with me, I never let her go.” — before moving on to Cincinnati, where he joined forces with Bob Huggins, spending two seasons with the Bearcats before following Huggins to Kansas State. He replaced Huggins as Kansas State’s head coach a year after joining the program and just seven years after he joined the collegiate coaching ranks. He would take the Wildcats to more NCAA tournaments in his five seasons at the helm than they had been to in the previous two decades combined.
“Frank’s never steered away from a challenge as long as I’ve known him,” Anya said. “He’s overcome any obstacle in his way, just ‘I’m going to make it work.'”
“I’m happy as any mom could be,” Lourdes said. “Speechless, but not all the way. I have to talk to him about my air ticket.”
Martin spoke many times about the dream of leading this team to this moment, but he didn’t always believe that the dream of taking the Gamecocks to the Final Four was a realistic possibility.
“When we beat Duke, Frank said ‘Why not us?’” Figgers said, a motto that had become something of a rallying cry for the Gamecocks during the East Regional. “That’s the first time we really talked about [winning a title].”
The team and the coaching staff weren’t the only ones that never really gave this possibility much thought. College basketball at large — the fans, the media, opposing coaches — all had the same thought: “South Carolina in the Final Four? The same team that put up 86 points in four overtimes against Alabama? Lulz.”
South Carolina’s star guard Sindarius Thornwell, who was named Most Outstanding Player in the East Region, mentioned in every press conference this weekend that no one paid attention to or respected the program prior to this run. Martin ranted earlier this year about the lack of local media coverage his team gets, particularly when they play on the road.
At this point in the season, most players get burned out of the media attention they get, answering the same questions over and over and over again.
On Sunday evening, after spending 25 minutes up on the dais for a postgame press conference, Thornwell was finally en route back to the locker room to celebrate with his team when he was pulled aside by a television reporter that needed just a couple more minutes of his time.
Thornwell, decked out in a East Regional Champs shirt and hat with the remnants of a net dangling around his neck, didn’t mind.
Some days, anxiety can be seriously overwhelming. So overwhelming that it can completely disrupt our day or even our entire week. Anxiety is like the toxic friend that seems to always tag along with stress. Stress can come from many different places, and it can be hard to pinpoint exactly why we’re feeling stressed out and anxious. However, there can be many different sources of where it can come from in our day to day lives. Nobody likes to feel stressed out, as it can have such a negative impact on our mood.
For some of us, it may not be that easy to relieve the feelings of stress and anxiety, but trying giving these 6 little things a try.
As simple as this sounds, when you’re feeling super anxious, begin to focus on your breathing. Inhale through your nose and fill your lungs. Count to five, hold, then exhale through your mouth. Regular breathing will stop the production of stress hormones. Practicing this breathing technique will begin to stimulate the part of the nervous system responsible for relaxing and calming the body down. Your body will literally have no choice but the calm the hell down!
When your mind is beginning to cloud over with anxiety, try to actively refocus my thoughts on something completely different. For example, something positive. When you let your negative thoughts swamp you, only you can get yourself back out of it, and refocus your mind really helps.
Multiple studies have found that exercise reduces feelings of anxiety thus encouraging feelings of wellbeing. Exercise is one of the most important things you can do in order to combat stress.
Yeah okay, the sound of reducing your coffee intake does sound pretty upsetting. However, caffeine in high doses can really increase your anxiety. If you notice that caffeine makes you anxious and jittery, try cutting back a bit.
Yoga has become an increasingly popular method of stress relief and exercise. It does this by increasing body and breath awareness; reducing stress hormones.
A simple way to reduce your stress is to get it all out on paper. Keeping those thoughts swirling around your head can bog you down and be overwhelming. When it is out on paper, it is a lot easier to manage.
I'll let the facts play out on this, but let me tell you something. If Libby really did this, I hope for prison. And for the same reason I said the same thing about Bill Clinton.
It's really that simple. It doesn't matter what you're lying about. Scooter Libby's lying is every bit as ridiculous as Clinton's was (and don't give me the one about Libby's being more serious. If there had been anything, anything at all, there would have been indictments for that as well.) because it was unnecessary.
Look, if a lawyer is asking you a question in court, under oath, they know the answer. Trust me, they know. Those lawyers WANT you to lie. They live for it. Why would you give that to them? It's just stupid, but people do it way too much.
I've got a better idea. Take the fifth. Yes, people will think you did it, but, guess what, they already do. Save yourself the agony of being impeached, jailed, and/or fined. It doesn't matter whether you're a Dem or a Repub, if you lie under oath ABOUT ANYTHING, you deserve what you get. And, damn straight I'm consistant on this issue. If your not, then you need to ask yourself some serious questions.

As they continue to age, an optimal choice for seniors looking to optimize their quality of life is to age in place. In fact, a 2014 AARP survey revealed that 87 percent of adults over the age of 65 preferred this option. Although health and physical capability are two big factors associated with aging at home,
It’s inevitable that as people age, they also become more isolated. A 2016 Merck Manual study found that about 30% of 46 million seniors not living in a nursing home live alone. The consequences of isolation on senior mental health can be tragic, ranging from extreme loneliness to a further decline of health.
A grandmother who used to share whispered secrets with a grandchild may now struggle to hear shouts from across the house. A grandfather who used to be an avid talker may now feel isolated from discussions he can’t make out.
Whether it manifests as a tightening in your chest, a quickened heart rate, or a feeling of imposing doom, stress is a common feeling, and it affects virtually everyone at one point or another.
Known to scientists as a highly subjective phenomenon, stress has a starring role in the everyday lives of most people.
When we prepare for our retirement and old age, we worry about things like money, future living situation, kids, grand kids, friends etc. What many of us forget to take into account is how boring life age can become. In our older age, kids are busy in their own lives and our friends live in different parts of the city or country. Slowly, boredom and loneliness creep in. With in-home care, there are daily interactions between the caregiver and the patient and this somewhat alleviates the boredom. But slowly, caregiving also falls into a routine and we are back to square one. However, we can prevent this mind-numbing boredom with help of companionship and spontaneity in our lives.
With July being the National Anti-Boredom month, let’s take a look at some solutions which will remove boredom for both the caregiver and the patient:
Pets are a wonderful source of companionship, whether it is for the caregiver or the patient. They bring fun and joy in our lives. Playing with them is so entertaining and if it works for you, you can also take them out for walks. Dogs are amazingly loyal and social and will always be there with you. If you prefer a little more solitude, cats will be a good choice for you. They are very low maintenance pets who prefer to wander and give space to their humans.
Gardening doesn’t always means being out in the garden, on your knees with your hands in the dirt. You can always get some potted plants indoors or on window sills and look after them as they grow. Watching something grow (like plants, pets or kids) and taking care of it is a very emotionally rewarding experience. Both patient and caregiver can take part in this and watch the plants grow.
Video games are exciting and provide a stimulating experience to our brains. In the past decades, these games have made impressive progress. Most of these games can now be played while sitting or lying down. You can play them alone or with partners. Try games from Wii, Nintendo, PSP, X Box etc. These games are not only fun, they give you a sense of achievement, exercise your motor skills, and stimulate your brain.
Internet, one of the most useful inventions ever, is a wonderful thing. It can open the doors of a whole new universe for you. You can watch interesting or funny videos on YouTube, TV shows and movies on Netflix, use sites like Reddit, StumbleUpon to discover new things etc. If you feel uncomfortable in using a desktop or a laptop, I would suggest trying an iPad or any similar tablet. They are lightweight and easy to hold and you can surf the internet with ease. Both the patient and the caregiver can keep themselves entertained on the internet.
To avoid boredom, it is important to stimulate our minds. Learning new things is an excellent way to do this. When you are older or caring for an elderly person, learning a new language is a great option as it doesn’t requires physical exertion. You can use websites like Duolingo and iTalki to learn new languages for free.
This is a great way to regularly meet up with your friends and loved ones. You can organize a biweekly or monthly book club meeting, where the members of the club meet at a fixed spot and discuss books, stories etc. You can meet at each other’s house, in parks, in cafes etc. Through book club meetings, you catch up with your friends, see them on a regular basis and get to read some new books which keeps your mind engaged.
The caregiver and the patient can work together to set up a small sanctuary for birds in the backyard. You will need things like feeder, birdbath, and a shelter where they can escape to in case of storms, cats etc. Once the birds start coming in, you can sit back and watch them through the windows. Bird watching is a very relaxing hobby. You can also take pictures of birds to identify their breed. It’s a fun way to spend time.

New for the 2014 season, the Fischer Big Stix 100 is the baby in the Big Stix range, which continues upwards with the Big Stix 110 and 120 models. The Big Stix range sits alongside the long-established Fischer Watea range – the latter have a more traditional flat tail which better suits all mountain and touring purposes, in contrast to the rockered approach offered by the Big Stix. As the name suggests, the Big Stix 100 is 100mm wide underfoot, with a 131-100-123mm profile give a 21m radius at the 186cm length – fairly tight for a 100mm-wide ski. The ski features both tip and tail rockers, with true twin tip tails to allow it to be ridden switch. Underfoot, a small amount of regular camber provides some edge grip on harder pistes. The Big Stix 100 has an all wood construction for lightness, together with some added carbon for torsional strength.
On the snow, the Big Stix 100 performs much as we’ve come to expect from this kind of mid-fat, rockered tip and tail ski. It has a fun, surfy feel on piste, being happiest to smear out the turns with its twin tip tails rather than carve through curves like its on rails. Things get more interesting as the snow gets deeper – here here the Big Stix 100’s width and predominantly rockered profile start to really make sense, and the ski is smooth and stable through both deep powder as well as chopped up crud. Overall, it probably isn’t truly a “one quiver” ski, but for those who are looking for a predominantly soft snow ski with a surfy approach to the groomers, it could be a nice option.

E-health beyond technology: analyzing the paradigm shift that lies beneath | SpringerLink

E-health beyond technology: analyzing the paradigm shift that lies beneath
Information and computer technology has come to play an increasingly important role in medicine, to the extent that e-health has been described as a disruptive innovation or revolution in healthcare. The attention is very much focused on the technology itself, and advances that have been made in genetics and biology. This leads to the question: What is changing in medicine today concerning e-health? To what degree could these changes be characterized as a 'revolution'? We will apply the work of Thomas Kuhn, Larry Laudan, Michel Foucault and other philosophers—which offers an alternative understanding of progress and revolution in medicine to the classic discovery-oriented approach—to our analysis. Nowadays, the long-standing curative or reactive paradigm in medicine is facing a crisis due to an aging population, a significant increase in chronic diseases and the development of more expensive diagnostic tools and therapies. This promotes the evolution towards a new paradigm with an emphasis on preventive medicine. E-health constitutes an essential part of this new paradigm that seeks to solve the challenges presented by an aging population, skyrocketing costs and so forth. Our approach changes the focus from the technology itself toward the underlying paradigm shift in medicine. We will discuss the relevance of this approach by applying it to the surge in digital self-tracking through health apps and wearables: the recognition of the underlying paradigm shift leads to a more comprehensive understanding of self-tracking than a solely discovery-oriented or technology-focused view can provide.

Great Barrington's Magadini gets 30 days on trespass charge - Berkshire Eagle Online
Print Email Font ResizeGreat Barrington's Magadini gets 30 days on trespass chargeBy Derek [email protected] @DerekGentile on TwitterPosted:
09/09/2016 06:05:47 AM EDTUpdated:
09/09/2016 06:06:23 AM EDTGREAT BARRINGTON — Just before David Magadini was led off to a holding cell on Thursday morning, he was addressed by his attorney.
"David do you know what's happening?" Jed Hall asked.
"I'm going to jail," Magadini replied.
"But don't worry," Hall said. "I'll take care of your cart."
He was referring to Magadini's grocery cart, parked outside Southern Berkshire District Court, which is filled with, among other things, plastic bags, clothes and empty soda bottles.
Magadini, 70, and homeless by choice, was sentenced on Thursday to 30 days in the Berkshire County House of Correction for violating a "no trespassing" order.
Magadini, despite having a home on which he pays taxes, has squatted for years in various local businesses or public buildings overnight or during inclement weather. Several "no trespass" orders have been filed with the police department, effectively banning him from those locations.
On Thursday, Judge Paul Vrabel, let stand a 30-day sentence handed down in 2014 by former Judge Fredric Rutberg. In all, Magadini was given seven concurrent 30-day sentences on trespassing charges incurred in 2013 and 2014. Magadini appealed those sentences to the state Supreme Judicial Court in Boston, where his attorney employed the necessity defense, arguing his client could not be charged with trespassing on private property, especially during winter months, when no other option for shelter was available.Advertisement
The appeals court returned those cases to district court, ruling that the on six of those cases, the jury should have been given instructions about the necessity defense. It left intact his conviction on the remaining charge.
On Thursday, Vrabel scheduled new trials the six overturned cases and upheld Rutberg's original 30-day sentence on the seventh charge, which took place in June 2014, when presumably there were more options for shelter.
"Looking at this case, I see no reason to overturn Judge Rutberg's decision," he said, adding that he would waive all fees and court costs incurred by Magadini in light of his jail sentence.
Vrabel also set five separate jury trial dates to address a total of 10 new trespassing violations at various businesses around Great Barrington. These dates are scheduled on Feb. 27, March 7, March 21, March 28 and April 4. All will be in Central Berkshire District Court in Pittsfield.
Hall suggested the sentence was harsh.
"My client just turned 70 last month," he said. "And I have concerns about his stay in the House of Correction."
"Well, I don't," Vrabel replied.
Hall then requested a date for a motion hearing, saying he planned to file motions to dismiss several of the new charges.
"I have concerns about several of these charges," Hall said. He pointed out that if the court upheld any of the motions, there might be fewer trials.
"No, we're not going to do that," Vrabel said. "The government wants us to move this along, and we're going to move this along. These matters are all going to trial. We will consider your motions at trial. If they are successful, we'll deal with it then."

It's Been a Good Week To Read Dickens - Paperblog
It's Been a Good Week To Read Dickens
I suppose any week is a good week for Dickens, but this week has been especially perfect. I've returned to school with an abysmal cold: sore throat, congested head, scattered thinking at best. My dear children correct my mistakes and say, "That's all right, Mrs. S---" secretly thrilled, I suspect, to be the only ones with the right answers.
I'm a third of the way into Great Expectations, which I've read before but am reading again with Tom for January's end. I love this book more now than I did the last time I read it. (In fact, I wonder if books shouldn't be read through more than once to get the proper feel for them.)
I can relate to Pip's distress at being "coarse and common", and while I can see it's foolish for him to deride the good in his life, I can understand perfectly his desire for more.
And poor Miss Havisham, sitting by her rotted bride-cake from under which the spiders crawl about, while all the clocks stand still at twenty minutes to nine...
Time does stand still, sometimes. It stops dead in its tracks until we figure out exactly where our expectations have gone wrong. It waits for us, for me, to shake myself. To sit up tall. To say, proverbially, "This is a rotten bridal-cake (or train of thought, or attitude). I'm going to throw it away and get on with my life."
We'll see what happens with these two, Pip and Miss Havisham, by the end of the month. You still have time to join us if you choose, and I can't say enough good about this work of Dickens' to help persuade you.

Android "Nearby" uses beacons to push apps and sites relevant to user location
Android "Nearby" uses beacons to push apps and sites relevant to user location
Service will alert users about apps or websites that have value in that place or business location.
Greg Sterling on June 10, 2016 at 10:59 am
Yesterday, Google introduced (or expanded) a new feature for Android users called "Nearby." It's a location-based system for notifying Android smartphone owners of apps (and sites) that are potentially useful or relevant in real time based on where they are.
Google provides some use cases in its post:
Download the audio tour when you're at The Broad in L.A.
Download the United Airlines app for free in-flight entertainment while you wait at the gate.
Android devices (including Android watches) running KitKat or later are compatible with Nearby.
Beyond letting users know of content or experiences that might be relevant or helpful, Nearby effectively is another app marketing/discovery tool and a way to help developers engage users.
It's also a way to get Android users to opt into location services and notifications. That, in turn, supports things like Store Visits data for Google AdWords. There's a "virtuous cycle" here for Google and developers.
For Nearby to function, users must turn on Bluetooth and location services. Nearby relies on beacons, which can also trigger mobile webpages or experiences via Chrome. There's more information on the technical side of this in the Google Developer Blog post.
Recent consumer surveys have shown that Android users tend to be more receptive (if less responsive) to notifications than iOS users. However, overall, a majority of users are resistant to notifications. Location is a way to personalize and make notifications more relevant and overcome that resistance.

Kidney Stone Diet - Diets Ideas
best t yoga poses and 5 home reme s to rid of kidney stones from Kidney Stone Diet, source:forhomeremedies.com
Despite which diet you end up selecting, currently being aware about the food stuff you're consuming is really a have to. While this doesn't audio also tough, it may possibly really be incredibly uncomplicated to get rid of keep track of of the amount of calories you've got eaten in a very day, such as snacks and beverages. For that reason, it really is a good idea to start-up a food stuff diary when you can enter every little thing you've eaten into it, regardless of whether it was genuinely small. In case you try this for even a couple of months, you'll possibly be amazed in any way the extras that slip in. While you think that you are remaining on target with your diet program, you may not be counting each last matter you eat. You are able to follow any diet plan, or a minimum of find out if you are cheating, by using a food items journal.
There is a diet plan known as the Mediterranean Eating plan which can be mostly based upon the point that men and women in nations like Greece, Spain, Italy and France have significantly less conditions and obesity difficulties as opposed to U.s., as well as various other nations around the world. There is certainly a good deal to choose from on this food plan, even so the primary aim is on nutritious fat, like olive oil, fresh new fruit and veggies and also a limited sum of fish and meat. As wine is considered that can help prevent heart disorder, a small volume of it can be sometimes welcomed. Considering the amount of all-natural and mouth watering meals you could pick out from using the Mediterranean Diet regime, it really is certainly really worth hunting into Carb Diets.
Vegetarian and vegan diet plans are proposed by several authorities in bodyweight loss and health and fitness. Solutions derived from animals can not be eaten on the vegan diet, but on a vegetarian eating plan you can try to eat things such as dairy and eggs, just no meat. Each sides on the argument relating to which can be much healthier involving vegan eating plans and vegetarian diet programs is usually found in different publications, internet websites and article content. While you will find people who do effectively on these types of eating plans, others will not. You continue to must be mindful with your calorie and carbohydrate intake on this type of diet regime. You are able to quit consuming meat for example but nonetheless take in a load of sweets, pasta and bread will never be of use for you when wanting to shed some excess weight. Obtaining inside a superior total of vegetables and fruit is necessary for the two meat eaters and vegetarians alike, but other resources of protein need to be identified for vegetarians.

Horse Taming is the process of catching a wild horse and then registering it at a stable. After a horse is tamed it can be used for transportation or breeding to achieve higher tier horses.
Taming can be leveled by riding a donkey or horse acquired via quests or purchased from a vendor or market.
It is recommended to take at least 10 Capturing Rope and Lumps of Raw Sugar as a minimum when trying to capture horses until you are confident in your ability to complete the mini game.
First we need to know where to look for horses. The Black Desert Tome Map can be used to locate areas where wild horses can be found. When the map opens, choose deselect all and then click the Horses option. This will reveal a number of blue circles on the map representing locations where wild horses roam. Zoom in as far as possible for the most accurate areas to search.
Wild Horses most commonly appear as Tier 1 or Tier 2 horses although up to Tier 5 can be gained via taming. They can be identified by their coloring and provide different potential stats. Within each tier there are multiple horses that may provide a focus toward a given stat over others such as higher maximum load weight or higher speed. The most common wild horses found through out Black Desert are detailed below.
It is easiest to use the Capturing Rope and later the Lumps of Raw Sugar if they are on a quick bar. In order to begin simply approach a horse without getting close enough to scare it away, aim at it and activate the Capturing Rope using the corresponding quick bar key. This will begin a mini game.
The first part of the mini game occurs immediately upon successful use of the Capturing Rope and will require you to hit the Spacebar when a slider is within a specific section of the center bar. Upon a successful attempt the second part will begin.
During part two of the mini game you will need to begin walking towards the horse. If the horse rears up a third mini game is triggered during which time you must press the Spacebar repeatedly until the timer counts down. After the timer counts down you will return to part two and need to begin walking towards the horse. Continue this cycle until you are standing next to the horse and the mini game queues stop.
When you have reached the horse begin feeding it the Lumps of Raw Sugar. It is recommended that you feed it a minimum of four Lumps of Raw Sugar before trying to mount it. When you attempt to mount the horse you will either succeed and be able to ride it to the nearest stable or be bucked off and have to use another Capturing Rope to try again.
Once you are successfully mounted and riding your freshly trained horse its time to take it to the nearest stable and register it so that it does not run away. You can use the search function in the top right corner to find the nearest stable. Ride up to the Stable Master, dismount and begin speaking to the him/her. When the options menu comes up choose stable and your newly tamed horse should appear in the mounts list. Choose it and click the Register Wild Horse button that shows up next to it's portrait. This will open the window where you can name your horse and view its characteristics, confirm the name and you have a new horse for riding or breeding!
This is a continuous integration system based on Buildbot adapted to build all Gnome modules through jhbuild:
Find Gnome build errors quickly: when a commit breaks the build, we should be able to find out that it happened and what caused it.
Make life easier for testers: build RPM and Debian packages from Git so that testers can install and use them. Virtual machine images are easy to use and growing popular.
Detailed requirements obtained mainly from Luis Villa's experience with MicroTinder can be found here:
openSUSE Build Service: It can build packages for various distributions. Most of the advanced features are still missing, but the basic build functionality is there.
Accessibility team is working in enhance a testing framework, and show interest in collaborate with the buildbrigade
This is a list of tasks that need to be done. If you think you can help with any of them, please, let us know, your help would be very welcomed ;-). After each task there is a set of attributes between parenthesis that state for (priority, difficulty, technology, asigneee). If you want to collaborate in a task which is already assigned, you can contact the people the task is assigned to. Otherwise, if you want to help in an unassigned task, you can talk to us using the mailing list and the IRC channel, or you can contact me (IagoToral) directly.
dbus needs to be configured with --enable-tests --enable-asserts for the 'make check' results to be meaningful, but any production build should not have these flags
Right now is synchronized with library.gnome.org view, but a review would be good to check if we missed something
Notify i18n teams of new strings. Maybe even having a string-freeze check that gets activated in freeze period.
ClaudeParoz: That's already implemented with Damned Lies. Each string-freeze break is reported to gnome-i18n ML.
Add a Makefile target 'make bugreport' to as many modules as possible, which knows where to send the bugreport (because of the variety of bug tracking systems in use). Making sure every HACKING file has the right information would be a good start.
John Carr improved the current jhbuild-buildbot integration. Now the buildbot is part of jhbuild, and his installation is really straightforward, see /DocsAndGuides
created build-brigade-list mailing list -- The new list (note the name) list is working, please subscribe!
gcov and gcc4 work together it seems - see GStreamer (http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/coverage/lcov/gstreamer/)
ChristianKirbach: This cannot easily be answered. Updating the sources is faster than checking out everything each time. Keeping the old object modules, i.e. not running 'make clean', usually saves a lot of building time. However, cvs sometimes cannot update properly and gives up because of conflicts. I have sometimes experienced that after successfully updating the sources autogen must be run again for a successful build. I have also rarely seen that make clean actually was required. So, for fast building we probably want some fallback system like
If build finally fails the module is definitely broken. Reasons can be a broken module or e.g. an API change in one of its dependencies.
JoseDapenaPaz: I would definitely use the previous build. We cannot taint all the modules because of every single change. Anyway, it would be interesting that Continuous Integration could warn that an error compiling a dependency has happened.
These ideas have grown out of a presentation (CI BoF 2006) and a subsequent discussion at GUADEC 2006.
The locale filter sets a variable in the session for the desired page direction (left to right, right to left) based on the user's locale.
The lams:head tag should be used for all jsp pages as it sets the UTF-8 encoding and pragma statements that stop the pages being cached in a browser. The caching can be an issue when LAMS is upgraded.
The User tag allows you to access the simple user details from the UserDTO object, which is stored in the shared session. It does not support the theme details properly yet - we will add them when we work out what is required.
The implementation is done using reflection so you can access any public property in the UserDTO bean. So if new properties are added, they should automatically work with the tag.
Two tags are to help with printing out paths in your jsps. If you need to put in the basic LAMS url (the one defined in the configuration file e.g. http://localhost:8080/lams/ ) then use <lams:LAMSURL/>. If you want to put in the basic URL for your webapp (e.g. http://localhost:8080/lams/tool/lanb11/ ) then user <lams:WebAppURL/>.
If you are going to use the tags repeatedly in one page, you might think about "caching" the value, rather than having it recalculated each time.
The stylesheet needed will eventually be based on the user and user's organisation. Tools should use <lams:css/>, which will write out the user's preferred stylesheet. At present, it just refers to default.css, but this will be changed in the future to be the user's stylesheet and the default stylesheet (which is the same as aqua.css). See also LAMS Themes or Skins
Export portfolio pages are designed to be run offline, so for these use <lams:css localLinkPath="../"/>. The "../" indicates the path back to the "root" of the export portfolio zip file. The css files are put in the export zip file by the export portfolio core code, and the localLink option will cause the css statement to refer to the local copy.
Many of our authoring and monitoring pages include the same common javascript and css files. So there is a tag "headItems" that bundles up most of them. This tag has no parameters.
timeago: Optional. If this is set to anything then it will produce the date in timeago format e.g. less than a minute ago, two days ago. Suggest setting it to "true" for readability but if it is set to anything it will work. When timeago is used, style and type become fairly meaningless as the raw date is only seen if there is an error with timeago.
Please the style and type parameters only in rare cases. Normally you should only supply the value parameter - this will allow us to keep our dates consistent across the system. The other parameters have only been included for rare cases when the normal format is just not suitable.
It is 100% compatible with STRUT HTML textarea tag. The content saved into database thru this tag is compatible with FCKedit as well, which replace those specific characters for HTML interceptor, such as &, < or >. Unfortunately, this tag must bind some Javascript stuff, I put these script into common.js. Furthermore, it must embed between STRUTS <html:form> tag, which means it does not work in pure HTML textarea way.
This tag provides same function with STRUTS-textarea tag but it is used inside normal HTML form. You can use any attributes which will be rendered exactly same. So, you can treat it as normal HMTL textarea tag. But two things need be careful:
All tools need to have a define later screen, which is displayed to the learner when the "define later" flag was turned on in authoring.
Use of this tag is not compulsory - if your screen needs additional information that won't work well with the tag then don't us the tag. However if your page is the normal looking define later page, please use the tag for consistency.
The tag takes two parameters defineLaterMessageKey, which is the key to the message in your language file, and buttonTryAgainKey, which is the key to the name of the button in your language file. They default to "define.later.message" and "button.try.again" respectively so if you use these keys in your language file then you don't need to include any parameters.
The link is constructed from two parameters the tool signature (string) and module name (string) i.e. authoring. The tag will display a uniform, help button icon that is aligned to the right.
It is recommended that you use this tag only if you have a default help URL set for your tool. If your default help URL is not set or has a null value then the tag will display nothing. Also note, that it is important that the tool signature value is correct and matches your tool's signature. If the tool signature is incorrect an error will be produced and a cross icon (see below) will be displayed on the page:
The link is constructed from a single parameter, the page address (string) i.e. My+Page. The tag will display a uniform, help button icon that is aligned to the right.
The default CSS for the help icon makes its placement awkward if not used in the tab environment of author and monitor. If you want to use this tag elsewhere, try the style attribute:
Role names for admins and managers are stored in the database as 'COURSE ADMIN' and 'COURSE MANAGER'. To display the internationalised version of a role name, do (for example):
The Image Button Wrapper tag is used to consistently display two (or more) adjacent image buttons (buttons with css background-image applied) in both left-to-right (e.g. english) and as well in right-to-left (e.g. arabic) directional rendering of the webpage.
The advantage to using the tag is that you avoid scripting, and if a value is needed inside a scriptless tag then scripting is out. The disadvantags is that you have to use the hardcoded version of the configuration parameter (e.g. version) rather than the constant defined in the ConfigurationKeys class.
Using the Comments widget in a tool requires using two tags - CommentsAuthoring in the Advanced tab in Authoring, and Comments in Learning and Monitoring. Examples of their use are taken from the Noticeboard tool. Both tags are designed with default values but you can customise them to suit your tool. The comments values are store in lams_comment* tables.
The comments widget assumes you will add two new fields to the tool content record - allowComments and commentsLikeAndDislike (note these names can be overridden). AllowComments should be a boolean controlling whether or not the comment widget to be used. CommentsLikeAndDislike should be a boolean controlling whether or not the bother like and dislike thumbs appear or just the like. This way the teacher can control whether to use the comments widget, and which thumbs to use, from activity to activity. These two new fields need to be persisted by the tool.
In authoring, these two fields are set. In learning, these two fields are using to control the Comments display.
mode (Optional). Learner vs Monitoring. Defaults to blank, which will be the same as "learner". Set to "teacher" for monitoring.
Normal usage on a learner page - use the default paging option, start with sorting by latest first. AllowComments and LikeAndDislike were set in authoring.
Top ten entries, view only. Useful on a Reflection page. Shows ten entries initially (overriding the system default) sorting by likes and disables the thumbs, edit and reply buttons.
File Upload gives you the small file button and filename next to it upload widget. It ties in with the upload.js file for validation, so it contains the error field (initially hidden) that any error messages are placed in. To make it support all instances of file upload in LAMS, it is very very configurable, but generally you will only need to define two or three parameters. If you are retrofitting it to existing code, check it parameter to see if the default value is fine. If you are using it in new code, try to use the default values.
fileFieldname and fileFieldId: the id and name of real "File" input field. This is the name of the field on your form but is hidden on the screen. Normally this is the same and you can just set "fileFieldname" but if you need different values (for example Data Collection tool) then you can set "fileFieldId" to make the "id" field different to the name. Default value is "fileSelector", another coming value is "file".
Waiting Spinner is often used along side File Upload but can be used anywhere you need the spinning cursor. A very simple tag but it gives consistency to the cursor across LAMS pages. You will still need to do your own javascript to show/hide the spinner div.
id: id to be used for the spinner div. Usually something like "itemAttachment_Busy". Can be omitted if you just want a spinner and do not need to be able to turn it on and off (which is a very unusual case).
It will insert a URL call to display a portrait, and if the user has not set a portrait then they will get a generic person icon. The colour of the generic icon is based on their userId so they will always get the same colour. The URL call is cached within the page so you cannot display the same user's portrait with two different sizes on the same page. This is done purely for efficiency.
His imposing red tattoo around his eye, his snow leopard armor and commanding loud voice, makes you quickly realize that you're standing in the presence of the Physis Giant king.
Krug Seerbarsch is a stern Giant, who is also the revered King of the Giants and has a pet eagle called Waschbar. Krug is located in the southern part of Vales, inside the Chief's House. His wife is Queen Kirine and she can be found nearby him. His sister Karpfen was sent to Taillteann as a representative for the Giants.
Krug will "bless" Giants and Giant-allied Humans when talked to. Giants will receive 15 Strength and Will, while allied Humans receive 10 Strength and Will. This blessing will last indefinitely unless a player logs out, changes channels, leaves Vales, or becomes Knocked Unconscious.
As revealed in some keyword usages, Krug's father waged war with the elves, but sometime later, he died. Many people tried to claim the throne, including Zeder's father, a popular man who wanted to end the war and usher in peace with the elves. However, Krug, unhappy that Zeder's father was opposing everything that his father stood for and his popular support nearing him to the crown, secretly had Zeder's father assassinated. With Zeder's father dead, Krug took the throne without question and became the king, then continued his father's campaign to annihilate the elves and win the war.
However, Krug knew that Zeder's father had a son, so he had Wanst adopt Zeder to raise him and keep him under surveillance in case he were to end up like his father and fight Krug for power. However, in present day, Zeder is fully aware of what happened and is secretly sharpening his blade of revenge.
Krug, acknowledging that the elves have weakened, orders Taunes to launch another assault. However, Taunes refuses, as his eyesight has greatly impaired his vision and cannot fight. Outraged, Krug tries to have Taunes arrested for disobedience, but Taunes secretly escapes with the help of the Milletian and the Mirror Witch's Unicorn.
After Languhiris takes over Hillwen Mine, the Milletian and Shamala aids Krug and their forces in reclaiming it. However, Languhiris's return causes them to retreat back to Vales, and the White Dragon shortly marches toward the city of the giants. Krug leads the counterattack, but it is ultimately a Cessair's intervention by forcing the Milletian to black out that brings out the dismay of the White Dragon and causing it to leave. In the aftermath, Krug rests, exhausted from the long battles.
After the Milletian race joins forces with the giants to reclaim Hillwen Mine, they are successful, and Krug thanks them but feels that something is amiss as it was much easier to take it back that time.
Cessair's Heart attempts to assassinate Krug to try to sever the connection between the elves and the Milletian race, but is thwarted by the timely arrival of the Milletian, forcing the Cessair organization to retreat. As thanks, Kirine agrees to help clear up the misunderstanding and tension the Cessair created between the Milletian, the giants, and the elves.
Krug agrees to send reinforcements to help the Milletian combat the Cessair as thanks for supporting the giants and saving his life.
The "Special" prices are those that include the 8% discount Krug offers only to Giant-allied Humans (it is not offered to Giants).
Due to the way the two discounts are applied, for Giant-allied Humans this will result in an approximate 12.6% discount and will vary the most for low priced items.
Despite Krug's NPC portrait showing Waschbar as a brown Eagle, his character model shows it as a black and white eagle.

Living history: OR nurse reflects on 50 years of service at TWH

Healthcare innovation seems to happen daily, procedures and possibilities changing so quickly that it's often forgotten how far the field has come in such a short time.
That history lives on in the minds of our longest-serving healthcare workers, such as Toronto Western Hospital's (TWH) Carol Spiegelberg, who evolved in their practice of medicine as things changed, but are quick to recall steps in procedures that might baffle some today.
"In the Operating Room (OR), some of the suture needles had to be quickly threaded with silk by the scrub nurse," Carol recalls. "In neurosurgery, for example, it was one needle, with one silk strand for one stitch for closure of a craniotomy.
"The needle boat would circulate and nurses had to constantly pick out the needles and thread them while the operation was happening – and the surgeons would get very impatient if we were slow."
50 years service, all as OR nurse
In November 2016, Carol celebrated a milestone very few employees at any organization achieve: 50 years of service, all of them as a nurse in the TWH OR.
It was a career that began with nursing school in 1961. In those days, the large teaching hospitals in Toronto had their own nursing school – at TWH, nurses were formed at the Atkinson School of Nursing – to help care for the many patients admitted to the wards.
"This was before patients could be in and out of hospital for surgery in a day, so TWH had almost 900 beds back then," explains Carol. "I was one of 83 girls from all over Ontario to graduate as a Registered Nurse (RN) in 1964; I still have the pin and the black velvet band I was given to put on my nurses cap which denoted my RN status."
A small town girl who always knew she wanted to be a nurse, Carol took an immediate liking to working in the OR when, during her second year of nursing school, her rotation introduced her to the fast-paced work of surgical services. These were the years before the existence of UHN, when TWH provided all medical services and surgeries, including a cardiac centre, obstetrics, organ transplant and many more that have since migrated to other sites.

"Hardly anyone applied to work in the OR when they graduated because everyone was so intimidated by some of the surgeons," she says. "But I knew that's where I wanted to be, in the middle of that exciting world, so I applied right after graduation and never looked back.
"I will never forget scrubbing in for my first procedure, a gall bladder removal," she continues. "I was so worried I would mix the dye they used to image the bile duct wrong."
As a nurse in the OR, Carol, now 73, had a front row seat to the many advances in surgical medicine that came to change practice and patient safety over her five decades of nursing.
In 1968, TWH performed Toronto's first heart transplant, an event that brought much excitement to the hospital, especially the OR where Carol's good friend was the scrub nurse for the procedure. Unfortunately, the patient died soon after surgery as anti-rejection drugs were still in their infancy.
"The outcome was, of course, very disappointing, especially after all our rehearsals to ensure sterile linens and room, all of which was very labour intensive work back then and also done at the hospital itself," recalls Carol.
'A family affair at TWH'
Still, she went about her work in the OR, relishing every minute. But a career is but one facet of a person's being, and her time at TWH also came to enrich her personal life.
Though he also worked at TWH in finance as comptroller, and later as V.P. Finance, Carol met her husband, Keith, on a bus while going to her hometown of Glen Williams for the weekend, while he was also going home to Brampton. They married soon after – a marriage that also recently celebrated 50 years – and had three children; all of whom were born at TWH before obstetrics closed in 1979.
"It really was a family affair for me at TWH," Carol declares. "Both my work and home families were made here."

Though she took time off while her children were little – "maternity leave didn't exist in those days" – as soon as her youngest started school, she went back to nursing. Carol can honestly be considered part of the original wave of women determined to find ways to balance both work and family.
"None of the women who lived on my street in those days had jobs so formal daycare didn't really exist because mothers stayed home with their kids," says Carol. "I started working night and weekend shifts which helped keep my skills current, and then I'd sleep from 8 a.m. until noon while the kids were at school."
By then, TWH had become part of the University Health Network (UHN) and Carol who had previously served as OR nurse manager for the eye, ear, nose, and throat service, went on to manage neurosurgery – the service that she says truly won her heart.
Nursing itself also changed during those years as professional standards and competencies were introduced in the 1980s to improve patient safety, and nurses came to be recognized more as partners with physicians in care delivery.
"It used to be that you'd scrub in to an OR procedure and the surgeon would silently put out his hand and you had to know exactly what instrument to place in it," she says. "It was just a different time, but now it's nice to see nurses voicing their knowledge and judgement."
After managing neurosurgery for three years, she stayed on in the OR as the Clinical Support Nurse, relying on her extensive knowledge and experience to nimbly fill in for several different positions in the OR.
But as time went on, Carol gravitated towards roles in OR education. In 2004, she started working with the Clinical Educator in the mentoring program, shepherding new nursing graduates through their OR nursing course, and orienting and training newly-hired graduates to the unit.
(L to R) Dr. Michael Tymianski, Jane Saccoccia, Sandy Gravely-Hurst, Dr. Charles Tator and Carol in 2012. Carol managed the Neurosurgery OR service for several years. (Photo: Courtesy Carol Spiegelberg)
Carol greatly enjoyed this role but still felt the need to diversify her work. So in 2006, while still working as a mentor, she applied to the Late Career Nursing Initiative (LCNI) – a program for nurses over the age of 55 sponsored by Ontario's Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care and championed at UHN by Dr. Joy Richards, Vice-President, Patient Experience and Chief Health Professions – to get the skills necessary to digitize her OR expertise.
The LCNI offers retraining for nurses with years of knowledge and experience to adapt and enhance their skills in order to support specific projects that could better their unit.
With the support of the OR Patient Care Manager, Rose Puopolo, Carol, worked with her colleague, Shirley Yeung, to create the TWH Operating Room Virtual Library on UHN's intranet. The library is a resource for OR nurses to look up surgical procedures once they have received their schedules and read up on the room set-up, instruments to be used and a general outline of a procedure.
Spiegelberg and Yeung completed the library in December 2016, cataloguing over 85 different surgical procedures and keeping the content up to date.
And with the end of that project, came the end of Carol's last chapter at TWH but the start of her first chapter of retirement for which she has many plans.
"Garden, garden, garden," Carol says. "But also continue to travel, sing in my choir, spend time with my husband and family. I always have something going on."
She has much excitement for this new phase of life, but it's obvious she takes many fond memories with her from TWH along with great pride in both her 50-year contribution and how the organization helped her achieve it.
"I'm going to miss TWH, this hospital really was my life," she says. "I'll miss my colleagues, the camaraderie, how we worked together to fix problems. I'm so proud of this hospital – I always say it's the best!
"It's been such a privilege to work here and keep learning while I did. Who else at 73, would have been able to do all this?"

I have a few different sized ball peen hammers on the workbench. You'll be pleasantly surprised at the different textures achieved simply by changing the size of the hammer being used.
Textured copper disc, textured using a small ball peen hammer
This is an old stamp I acquired in a toolbox from a guy who used to make signs. It's one of my favorite stamps. It creates nice deep divots, which take patina nicely.
How about using nails or chisels? If using nails, make sure the piece is hardened so it won't crush under the pressure from the brass hammer. Keep this in mind when visiting your local hardware store for jewelry making tools.
If you're stamping on metal , a brass hammer is required, and any other hammers or tools to be used as texturizing tools
With any of the tools we are using texturing metal, it's important to find the right amount of force to use while striking. The point is to create texture on the metal. We don't want to strike with so much force that we're moving the metal and changing the shape of a piece altogether.
Remove the metal pieces from a wooden clothespin and use one half of the clothes pin to hold the metal pieces while striking. It's a great save for the fingers!
When striking the metal, it is best to avoid striking too close to the edge. It can cause your metal to become misshapen. Of course, you could use this as a design element by striking around the entire edge and use the intentionally misshaped piece. If this is your choice, just make sure there aren't any sharp or ragged edges.
Finish your pieces by adding liver of sulfer patina. Use a 1200 grit wet/dry sandpaper to lightly bring up the raised copper and accentuate the textures you've created.

G5 Machine Randomly Shuts Off
Thread: G5 Machine Randomly Shuts Off
07-19-2007, 01:20 PM #1
I have a small problem that is a little annoying. One of our G5 Dual Core machines has been shutting off without any instructions to do so from the user. I am thinking that it is an overheating issue, but to my knowledge Macs are not that bad with the heat.
So I am wondering if the PSU is the cause of the random shut down?
High post counts do compensate for something
"You can't legislate common sense."
"Don't take life seriously, it's not permanent."
07-19-2007, 05:21 PM #2
Is your Mac a Mac Pro (Intel-based) or Power Mac G5 (PowerPC-based)? These are not the same machines and both have models sporting dual processors.
07-19-2007, 05:32 PM #3
My bad. I meant the PowerPC-based.
07-19-2007, 06:25 PM #4
Look at this Apple Support webpage: Power Mac G5 Repair Extension Program for Power Supply Issues. These are the symptoms reported for bad power supplies.
Compare your serial number against those listed on that page, your PowerMac might be in for a recall.
Report back to let us know what happens. If it is still under warranty, I would take it in for repairs, it could be a logic board starting to go bad if your G5 isn't on the list. Or another thing you could try is unplug it from the wall for 10 minutes to let the capacitors drain and plug it back in: see if the problem still occurs.
But do take it in if it is on that list... If it is, troubleshooting, if it does work, would only be very temporary and the real trouble would be looming up ahead.
07-27-2007, 12:19 AM #5
Sorry for the late reply. I have changed jobs but I still help the company with this problem out.
Thanks for the link. I will look at it later. I went back today (a week later) and apparantly the symptom has not occurred. So they will keep an eye on it.

I know I'm probably way out of the loop with this, but I just found out about Dollskill.com. They have such crazy, wild stuff and I love it. Here are some of my favorites. Watch as I talk myself out of buying each one.
No more monkey on your back, just an alien. If I go to a music festival this is totally what I'm carrying my bottled water in. I don't go to music festivals, though...
I think these might be the cutest flats I've ever seen. Have I ever mentioned that I collect spores, mold, and fungi? Only problem is I have no idea what to wear with shoes like this...
So goth. She reminds me of a character out of a Jhonen Vasquez comic and I love the way those characters look. In high school they were my fashion icons. I don't think I could pull it off. Lose tanks don't really work on me because my boobs pull the fabric out so I just end up looking blob-like .
I think I have an obsession with food-themed dresses. So tasty, but so short... on second thought I may just be entranced by the model's fabulous hair.
With this you'd never have to worry about your bra-straps showing because you would want them to show! But I would have to get new shirts that are supposed to show under garments. That sounds complicated and I think I need to be little more daring to rock a visible bra in public.

A common misconception with Email Marketing is that because it is not as fancy as Social Media, it doesn’t get the same results. This couldn’t be more wrong, Email Marketing is a very effective way of directly growing your business.
With around 95% of online customers using email accounts and 91% of them checking their email once a day there is a huge potential. If you post to Facebook around 74% of your messages are potentially missed by your customers, now even with the issues of email, with messages getting delivered to spam or in some cases not delivered at all, the potential to reach your customers is far greater than Social Media. Now remember this is on average so you business may perform differently. (Source: Exact Target)
The way the content actually appears to your audience is very important. We all know the Twitter feed moves very quickly, well most of us. Now this means a Tweet will be lost after 15 minutes, but an email on the other hand will have to be opened or deleted. So your audience will see it, you can’t force them to open the email, but the will see it, an option you don’t get with Social Media.
Now you don’t get public engagement with emails like you do with Social Media channels like Facebook and Twitter however a bonus with Email Marketing is that you are able to personalise the message to your audience. A single campaign can target thousands of contacts and yet still have a level of preconisation as well as the option to create different groups to enable you to target specific types of people in your messages.
Now it must be said that Social Media and Email Marketing can be incredibly useful for growing your business if used correctly, both have strong advantages and disadvantages. If used properly, both will offer a strong return on investment. The key is to understanding when to use each strategy, how to use it and most importantly being able to analyse the analytics and adapt campaigns from the results.

Confirm that each parent is health tested for any disorders that could affect your pup; include the recommendations of their parent breeds in your research.
Beagles can be prone to complications with their eyes; common ailments include “cherry eye,” a prolapse of the gland of the third eyelid, which can be addressed surgically, open angle glaucoma, and central progressive retinal atrophy.
Luxating patella is not uncommon in smaller breeds, and although Beagles can suffer from this condition it is often manageable without surgery.
Ear infections are fairly common, but they are preventable through good hygiene and treatable once they’ve developed.
Hypothyroidism can afflict Beagles, and dogs suffering from it will become lethargic, gain weight, and/or develop skin problems.

Bow Ties: The Simple Solution to Expert Witness Credibility | Psychology Today
Witness Bow Ties: The Simple Solution to Expert Witness Credibility
Jury consultants debate what it takes to achieve "greatness" Posted Jun 19, 2012 SHARE
If you are a lawyer anxious over how your expert witness will perform on the witness stand, you can always instruct the expert to don a bow tie: It's just the ticket for that "nerdy nod of credibility."
That's just one of the scintillating nuggets of advice for turning a ho-hum expert into a "great" witness in the latest issue of The Jury Expert, a publication of the American Society of Trial Consultants. Other advice from Doug Carner of Forensic Protection includes instructing the expert to be confident and relaxed and not to be "the hero." Reading the column made me thankful that the attorneys I work with have more common sense than to focus on the superficial. I would be less than thrilled to have an attorney client making wardrobe recommendations (bow tie or not) or ordering me to just relax. I don't mean to sound cynical about trial consultants. I'm sure there is a valid place for them in helping prepare witnesses -- especially novitiates -- for trial. But in my opinion, substance is far more important than style. And that's very hard to teach in a simple advice column. So attorneys are better off choosing the right expert in the first place than scrambling to prepare their witness via last-minute wardrobe tips.
Critically, a good expert witness must have legitimate expertise in the topic at hand. Without legitimate expertise, it is hard to be calm and confident. He or she should also be thorough, taking the time to research the issues and understand the specific case facts. And, above all, the witness should convey honesty and humility.
An attorney who has to tell the witness not to play "the hero" has already made a big mistake. That narcissistic expert should have been avoided in the first place. As a colleague once remarked, it helps us to remain humble if we remember that we are just one piece of evidence, like a maggot on a dead body.
Fortunately, The Jury Expert editors had the good sense to solicit rebuttals from other trial consultants, who took issue with Carner's column. Forensic psychologist Stanley Brodsky, a widely published authority on trial consultation, called Carner's wardrobe advice "demeaning." Experts don't need to be told to dress up for court. And although one or two exceptions come to mind, most of us won't feel more comfortable in a bow tie.
Brodsky also objected to Carner's advice that experts should just "stick to the facts." What distinguishes expert testimony from the testimony of lay or fact witnesses, he pointed out, is that experts are supposed to present not just facts but -- that's right -- expert opinions.
In another rebuttal, trial consultant Elaine Lewis said Carner only stated the obvious, without giving any real insights on how to achieve better results. "For example, we are told an expert 'should remain relaxed' but there is no suggestion on how to accomplish this," she noted. Ellen Finlay, who brings the perspective of a former trial attorney to her trial consultant practice, said much of what looks like poor witness preparation stems from inadequate law school training in how to craft a compelling direct examination. A well-crafted direct examination provides a road map for jurors and witnesses and is the single most effective way to "communicate your story to both the jury and your own witnesses," she coaches. If I was in the business of advising attorneys on preparing expert witnesses for trial, I would tell them not to scrimp on time. The biggest mistake I see attorneys making is to throw their cases together at the last minute. Attorneys need to fully explain to their experts their theory of the case, their voir dire and direct examination approach, and what to anticipate from cross-examination. If the expert is left hanging in the wind, the case will suffer, bow tie or not.

Believe it or not, you have the power to create abundance in your life. Follow these exercises to start experiencing your life to the fullest.
Bringing abundance into your life is more than a game of chance—it’s about creating the life you want. Here are some guidelines for actively creating abundance.
Life already presents multiple factors that can bring you down. Don’t add to the weight of it all with a negative or scarcity mindset. Learn how to live a life of abundance and reap the rewards.
Have you been under a lot of stress lately? Have you been reactive, defensive, self-righteous, or just plain negative? If you answered “yes” to these questions, then you just might have a case of a bad attitude. Learn how to catch yourself so you can make positive changes.
Drinking tea can be more than simply imbibing a warm beverage. Make it a meditation in and of itself. These five meditations will guide you through drinking your tea from start to finish.
The universe operates through constant and dynamic exchange . . . giving and receiving are different aspects of the same flow of energy in the universe. In our willingness to give that which we seek, we keep the abundance of the universe circulating in our lives.
The Seven Spiritual Laws of Yoga is a unique practice that blends the wisdom of India’s 5,000-year-old yogic tradition with the principles of Deepak Chopra’s best-selling book The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success. These principles can be briefly summarized as follows:
Gratitude is something all of us understand. For instance, saying “thank you” when we receive a gift takes hardly any thought or effort. It just seems to come forth naturally. In the same way, when someone thanks us for something we did for them, this too feels natural and welcome. In fact, giving and receiving gratitude is so familiar that we can easily overlook some of its deeper significance.

We are delighted to announce that at Visit Scotlands Thistle Awards for the Tayside, Central & Fife region we won! Now officially the Most Hospitable B&B in the area and I can't tell you how delighted we are about this. Its simply amazing that a wee family business like ours has been picked out. On to the National Finals now next year in March so we are keeping all fingers, toes, hooves, trotters, paws, etc crossed. Book in for a wee break or farm tour and we can welcome you to the farm and meet our hospitable 2 and 4 legged family! You can see and read more at Forfar Dispatch Article

So excited to announce that after a 4 month wait, BT have finally managed to install broadband into our cottage so our guests can stay connected (if they choose) with FREE wifi. Of course if you want to escape whilst you are here relaxing on holiday I can switch it off too! Just ask. This does mean that we have free wifi now in all our accommodation at Newton Farm Holidays.

It has come to our attention that our mobile reception has improved dramatically around the farm and most notably inside the farmhouse. We always thought the thick stone walls were the main cause of poor mobile reception but out of the blue I now have a good signal in and out of the house. Certainly I cannot confirm for all networks but we are on O2 and before I could hardly ever get a signal and only rarely received texts. That's all in the past now though, and whats even more significant is the sudden appearance of 4G too! Previously we hardly had 3G so all in all it makes life for me so much easier and for guests staying in touch with home and business or for planning their days out its brilliant!
Posted on August 21st, 2016 in Blog
Can't believe it! We have been offering bed & breakfast in our farmhouse for 10 years today! You may wonder how we started too and really it was all by accident and my parents fault! My Mum and Dad ran their own successful B&B in Forfar at Atholl Cottage. This weekend in July is an amazing one. Not only is it my twins birthday, its also the Glamis Extravaganza weekend. This is organised by the Strathmore Vintage Vehicle Club and brings together from all over the UK vintage vehicle enthusiasts so you can imagine how busy the area is. 10 years ago my parents received a panicked phone call from a couple who were booked into another B&B in the town which had closed and not let the couple know. Of course there was nothing available for them to stay and my Mum always trying to help said, "maybe my daughter could help out at her farm." There you go, that was me on the way with our B&B. Thankfully we had a few days notice though to get ready as what was our spare room at the time was actually a storage room so I needed to gut this and set it up as a bed room with 2 toddlers running around causing mayhem too.
Now 10 years on we are going from strength to strength and love having our guests return year on year. This weekend still is our busiest of the year though so definitely worth booking early!

Creative L1 Compact Uses - Bose Community - 315438
07-21-2010 12:08 PM
Ok so it has been over a year since the release of the L1® Compact system and we continue to hear stories about the product being used from everything from military services to fitness classes. I thought it would be a good idea to create an area to capture some of the more unique uses for the system aside from musical performances.
So tell us; what types of creative uses have you found for the L1® Compact system?

This is probably not all that creative.
I use my Compact for public speaking gigs. It actually serves me better than my Classic - especially in rooms that are wider than they are deep. It is heard more clearly at the extreme left and right sides of the room.
Very easy to load in and set up.
It also works better than most conventional PA systems where I might do a guest appearance with just solo Guitar/Vocal/PorchBoard. I get all the great advantages of portability - but the Compact goes down lower than many house PA systems I have encountered so the PorchBoard sounds better through the Compact than the house system.
07-22-2010 01:30 AM
As an L1 field representative I have seen a number of interesting applications. One system I helped sell was to an equestrian trainer who wanted to amplify prerecorded music and microphone in her horse stable/riding ring.
She got a wireless mic connected to channel one plus an MP3 player, which she carries on herself as she rides around the ring, connected via wireless to channel two to provide the music.
She trains her students in riding to latin/salsa music. I saw an email she sent to the sales associate who facilitated the purchase which provided a very positive review!
07-22-2010 08:14 AM
My Compact has become a family necessity.
We all use (fight over) it with our iPods, MP3 players, radios, TVs, and laptop computers for music indoors and out.
Great for back yard BBQs and lounging.
I just recently bought a little LCD TV for the bedroom that has poor sound, but has a headphone out jack.
Hooking up the Compact to that jack gives me remote control over the volume, plus super sound, without clutter.

I've got a pretty standard setup w/my L1 Compact. The only two, well one - this first isn't all that creative, 'creative things are, at the expense of my wallet, added the T1. Number two is I purchased a decent set of in-ear headphones and wite them (w/extension) to the aux-out of the T1. In-ear's baby!

Creative I have with the L1 ... this summer I have used the L1 compact on the beach ... wow what a party . powered by a battery pack and a Ipod mixer ... it last for 7 hours ... Also used it for BBQ .. I just purchase my second one ... Now I'm ready for more power action ...

I have a forty foot long fifth wheel travel trailer with four slide-outs. We travel from New Hampshire to Sanibel Island in Florida.
Typically, the DVD installations include cheesy speakers and mine was no exception.
I place the unit, minus the extensions, into a cabinet above the TV and voila: hifi!
I use one of my Compacts for playing mp3's for my guitar students to play along with. I go to some of their homes to teach and it's a great sounding portable solution for that. It weighs 30% less than the Roland KC amp I've been using.
11-24-2010 12:52 AM
I have a gig playing keyboards with a local large church praise band most every Sunday. I bring a keyboard controller and my laptop with Reason because the B3 sound is so realistic. I usually use a Roland keyboard amp with a 12" and horn. Tonight I brought the Compact in collapsed mode, just set it on the floor, played the organ simulation through it and everybody absolutely freaked out! Words like "so fat" and "rich" were used to describe how it sounded, and it felt like I was playing 500 pounds of wholesome Hammond goodness on that stage. The Compact totally handled all the low bass notes I was dishing out while giving the Leslie sim, already quite good, a sparkling spatial quality I had not heard before. Truly a Bose magical moment!

Add-It Jointed HD Stingers are made with two things in mind – versatility and extreme durability. These heavy-duty versions of our Add-It Joined Stinger feature larger and stronger swivels, made for the most extreme predator anglers. The Add-It Jointed HD Stingers can be mounted on a wide range of soft lures, with shallow-screws, screw-in heads and normal jigheads, and are essential when targeting toothy predators like pike, muskie, and zander. After hook-ups, the joints enable a free 360°-degree rotation, which provides an improved landing rate. Using swivels instead of wire increases the weight in the rig, helping to stabilize your lures to give them a perfect swimming action.

Financial goals can be anything from savings to investments to debt repayment! No matter what you decide to focus on, you want to set goals you can actually accomplish so that you stay motivated and achieve them.
Financial goals with no real merit or plan supporting them are bound to leave your finances stagnant or depleting.
In order to set financial goals, you want to be realistic, but also optimistic. They are goals, after all! Take note of your starting point, think about what it is your finances are lacking, and start setting your goals. Starting is the most important part of any goal!
What your financial goals are depend entirely on you and your lifestyle, but there tends to be a few that are good for everybody. Here are some examples of financial goals you should consider:
Save a downpayment for a house
Financial goals can be divided up into three basic categories: short term, mid term, and long term.
Short term goals are the kind of goals that help you establish your financial footing. Usually they are simpler and require a shorter amount of time to achieve than others. They're sort of like initial steps that guide the tone for your future financial endeavours.
Creating a budget, paying off credit card debt, saving up for a useful purchase like a new computer, or cutting your monthly spending are all reasonable short term goals.
Mid term goals will probably take 3-5 years to achieve, whereas many short term goal can be accomplished in a matter of months. These goals will act as a sort of bridge to achieving long term goals.
If mid term goals were a point in your life, they'd probably look a lot like your 20's: growing up, figuring things out, and making moves.
Paying off student loans, starting a business/ generating another stream of income, or even paying for a wedding are all good ideas for mid term goals.
Long term goals are undoubtedly the big ones. They are the goals you set that will ultimately set up your finances to truly support and protect you.
Long term goals may include things like living completely debt free, paying off your mortgage, or, the most common one, which is funding your retirement.
No matter what stage you're at, as long as you are setting goals of any kind, you're on the right track!
Setting SMART financial goals step by step
"SMART" stands for Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic, and Time-Bound. They refer to goals that are not only achievable, but have a dedicated timeline to make them happen.
Here's how to set SMART financial goals:
Make your financial goal specific. Instead of having a vague goal like "save an Emergency Fund", make sure you identify the exact dollar amount like "save an Emergency Fund of $3,000".
Choose your timeline. A financial goal isn't real unless it has a due date. Choose a reasonable timeline that allows you to reach your financial goal. This can be a few months or even a few years, depending on the size of the goal. For example, you might want to "save an Emergency Fund of $3,000 in 12 months".
Outline your financial plan. Once you know the amount of your financial goal and when you want to achieve it, you need to outline your plan. This involves calculating the amount you need to put towards your goal on a monthly, bi-weekly, or weekly basis.
Automate your process. The easiest way to ensure you meet your financial goal is to automate the progress.
Check-in on your progress. It's important to continually check in on your progress to make sure you're on track with the goals you've set.
Extra goal-setting tips!
Following these steps should be pretty simple, but there are a few extra things to keep in mind that will help you achieve your financial dreams.
Use a calendar and budget tracker to keep your money organized. This will help you manage your timeline and spending. You can check out our guide on the 7 Best Budgeting Apps to see which one is right for your money!
Don't forget to account for your expenses. You don't want to idealize your goal's timeline before considering your current financial obligations.
Prepare for change. You must be aware of fluctuations in interest charges, fees that might pop up, or unexpected expenses that could deter your plan. While you can rely on certain things to be stagnant, finances can be a fickle thing.
Take note of your starting point. Write down the basics of your financial situation. How much money is in your checking account? What debts do you owe? Being able to look back will help you plan future goals and recognize your capabilities.
Evaluate your options. Check out different account options, robo-advisors, budget trackers, or any available tools that align with your goal. Do your research and make the most of your endeavour.
Recently, I've begun saving for graduate school in a high interest savings account. I was able to learn about competing interest rates and decide what works best for me which has really accelerated my savings.
For instance, EQ Bank offers a high everyday interest rate that motivates me in my savings even more. Looking into the available options and methods of saving urged me to re-evaluate aspects of my finances beyond my savings goal. In turn, I've gotten a better at managing my money!
Financial goals are ultimately the key to financials successes. Without them, you run the risk of letting your personal finances exist passively and never developing positive habits that will support you throughout your life.
As I set goals, I learn more about money and become better at how I manage it. Setting financial goals is an excellent learning experience and way to keep all aspects of your finances on track, even those that are not specifically related to your goal.
Beginning my goal of saving for grad school has already urged me to cut my spending down and stick to my budget, because I am so adamant about achieving this goal!
I feel safer in the future of my finances because I have been developing positive habits that will carry through as I work on mid term and long term goals.
Knowing where you're going may not be that straightforward, but setting financial goals brings you one step closer. And of course, when it comes to financial goals, the only thing better than setting them is accomplishing them.
I've definitely thought up my fair share of financial goals only to watch them slip through the cracks without preparing a proper timeline or means of achieving them.
By following these steps and taking into account some essential considerations, you can set financial goals you'll actually accomplish!

In remarks to the National Association for Business Economics annual meeting, Powell warned of a "tragic" scenario where "a long period of unnecessarily slow progress could continue to exacerbate existing disparities in our economy." He said too little support from policymakers would "lead to a weak recovery, creating unnecessary hardship for households and businesses."
"Over time, household insolvencies and business bankruptcies would rise, harming the productive capacity of the economy, and holding back wage growth," he said. "By contrast, the risks of overdoing it seem, for now, to be smaller. Even if policy actions ultimately prove to be greater than needed, they will not go to waste."

This is the picture I took of my daughter with Santa last year (classic!). Ironically it also happens to be a good representation of how I have felt this holiday season. (less classic!)
I’m simultaneously relieved and annoyed to confess that I finally finished decorating the Christmas trees and living room shelves this past weekend – one pitiful week before Christmas. Well…maybe “finished” isn’t the most accurate word to use in my current scenario. The real dish is that I grew tired of stepping around / stumbling over countless half empty boxes of ornaments and kitschy holiday decor, so I asked my husband to lug the remaining items to the attic. Out of sight, out of sight. (Clearly it’s not out of mind, but at least it isn’t underfoot either.)
I just can’t seem to muster my standard over the top holiday cheer. I don’t feel depressed, but I would liken my level of Christmas spirit to that of a wet sock – albeit a clean wet sock, but a wet sock nonetheless.
People always complain about how Christmas has become so commercialized, but that has never fazed me. I’m much more bothered by the excessive commercialization of Star Wars. Must every car, soup, and dog food ad have a storm trooper? I wouldn’t be the slightest bit surprised if I saw a commercial for maxi-pads that were stamped with a rebel logo. (Yes, I do recognize that this is an absurd thought. Clearly maxi-pads would only be stamped with the imperial logo. We all know that maxi-pads are strictly zoned for the dark side.)
This is a strange feeling for me, but I just can’t get excited about Christmas this year. I hear carolers on the radio demanding figgy pudding or else they won’t go, and I want to tell them where to stick their freaky treat. Also just to clarify – is this a European thing? What the eff is figgy pudding? And why won’t they go until they get it? Does it have addictive properties? No. Don’t tell me. If you know, I suspect that you are also competent in the art of making fruitcake and will argue fiercely that it’s a delicacy. I’m not saying that your opinion on the whole fruitcake business is wrong. Unless you want to tell me that it is good. And to that I tell you this – Fruitcake = No. Also you are wrong.
Please don’t misunderstand me. I’m tremendously grateful for the incredible blessings that have been bestowed on my family. Truly. However it has been a challenging few months, and I’m seriously run into the ground. I just need a break from _____. <— This is like Mad Libs. Fill in any word at all in this blank, and I would like a break from it.
With all of that said, I am attempting to exit the writing stalemate that I have found myself in over the past few weeks. Apologies for the re-entry ramble. It feels like I’m working through the funk and have to find the mojo in MoJo once more. I also apologize for my non-response to comments. I’ll get my behind back in gear on that, too. As I have said before, I disappear for extensive periods sometimes. It’s not intended to offend nor is it reflective of a lack of affection. Sometimes I just need to work through wherever I’m at in a given time, and my silence tends to be the ultimate clue that this is what is happening in my world at that moment. Please know that my own husband has begged me for years to stop talking so much. He would tell you that you should actually be thanking me. So on that note, you’re welcome.
I sincerely hope that your holiday season has been lovely so far and that the beauty of this time of year has truly found you. If it has, I would love to hear about it, but if it hasn’t, feel free to pull up a chair and give me the skinny on the fruitcake of a holiday you are feeling this year, too. While I hope that you can’t relate to these same grinchy sentiments, I do wonder how many of you are picking up what I’m putting down because your tinsel feels like it’s hanging a little off-kilter this year, too.
Nevertheless, I send best wishes and love to you always dear friends. Merry Christmas, happy Hanukkah, and holiday blessings to you all! Joanna

I know what you mean and I’ve had years like that. Sometimes, I’m just not into it. I love Christmas, but not the stress. This year, I’m full on and so happy. My mom is just the opposite and I can’t help but wonder, as I get older, if I’ll be just like her. She can’t even stand listening to the music, but here I am slapping on another Perry Como LP, lol. I’ve been this way my whole life, but I’ve had bad years too. The truth is, I don’t want to lose the Christmas spirit.
Depression runs in my family and I do feel that makes a huge difference. Some years I can’t cope with all the maddness, and others I welcome it. All I know is that I look at it like this– there are only so many Christmases. I turned 40 this year and time is never guaranteed. I want to enjoy as many Christmases as I can because we never know how many we have left. ❤😊 Much love and hugs, Joanna!

I am right past 40 myself and yet I am typically the biggest Christmas kid in the house. I can’t sleep the whole night before and I drive the boys insane with incessant holiday music. As a bonus, my two daughters are completely hooked on the season so we are like a festive annoying army. I’m going to find my spirit dammit! I must not miss this annual opportunity to annoy my son and husband! 😉

Great piece, Jo.
I find all of the above to be true, but I’d like to add something. My daughter and her teachers and whomever else associated with the devil have introduced the Elf on the Shelf. What is going on?
As I raise my 7 year old into a world she will always remember as a time our president was “a mean bully,” I teach the lessons of right and wrong. The first on this long list is lying. Now don’t get me wrong, lying is necessary in a child’s world, but how can ask them to tell the truth when all we ever do is fabricate these stories around Christmas. That reminds me, I have to move the Elf on the Shelf before my daughter wakes up.
How can we live with ourselves by lying to our children about how people have entered our homes and instead of stealing our stuff, leave gifts. I’m seriously concerned about the level of anger and disappointment she will feel, and justifiably so, when she realizes the world and her parents have been lying to her all along.
It’s disheartening. Where’s the brandy?

No I usually truly love it! This year just happens to be packing my Christmas spirit stocking to the brim with coal. I keep hearing a commercial on the radio where they say, “Choose joy!” and I growl at the radio every time I hear it. Ironically I do want to choose joy. I just need to relocate some of this irritation overload to make space for it first!
I appreciate your words so much and keep thinking about your message regarding Taoism. It has been on my mind incessantly and has helped calm my swirling thoughts. Thank you my dear friend. I am grateful for this words, and I grateful for you.

Thanks for your honesty! I also can’t find my Christmas Jam this year. I didn’t really decorate at home, and I didn’t decorate the office at work. I love Christmas, but I hate clutter. I have spent the last year decluttering my life, and it has helped immensely. However, it has made me reluctant to throw a bunch of stuff all over my house ha! I truly love Christmas and the family time and joy. I enjoy giving gifts and drinking coffee with the fambam. But I can’t do it surrounded by fake snowflakes and fiber-optic snowmen anymore.
So it may not be that you’re not in the Christmas Spirit, as much as you may not be in the Spirit of excessive things and stuff in the name of the holidays.
Merry Christmas! I hope you find time to slow down, work through your stuff, and enjoy the season.

Writer Sebastian Barry: The book that changed my life and helped me leave Ireland - Independent.ie
Writer Sebastian Barry: The book that changed my life and helped me leave Ireland
Irish playwright, novelist and poet Sebastian Barry was enthralled by Joyce's 'Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man' novel
To ask any book to change your life would be a major request, but I suppose a book could do that just as soon as a person. I think this book (Portrait Of The Artist as a Young Man by James Joyce) certainly overwhelmed me. I was something of the age that Joyce was writing about when I read it.
https://www.independent.ie/entertainment/books/writer-sebastian-barry-the-book-that-changed-my-life-and-helped-me-leave-ireland-36969550.html
https://www.independent.ie/incoming/article36971794.ece/f46ce/AUTOCROP/h342/Sebastian%20barry.jpg
I was maybe 20 or 21 and I was reading English and Latin at Trinity College Dublin.
I'm sure it must have been assigned to us.
The only book of his that I knew was Dubliners which my mother loved and I had read that as if it were an actual transcription of life. He produced life in front of your nose but at that age, 15 or 16, you don't really realise the magic of that.
Portrait Of The Artist as a Young Man is Joyce's first novel and traces the intellectual awakening of a young Stephen Dedalus, Joyce's fictional alter ego. It is a raw book.
It's perfectly composed but there's no wild urgency to it at the same time. I read it in what is called the New Square, in Trinity.
There were small trees planted there, maybe myrtles, and I remember standing under one of those trees on a summer's day for shade and reading it from start to finish.
It was like being teleported somewhere else, maybe Joyce's head, which was never a comfortable place to be because it was such a troubled head.
I got that violent feeling of being possessed by the book but the overwhelming part of it, the significant part of it for me, is towards the end when he talks about creating a conscience of his race and leaving.
There's the suggestion of mail boats and having to go away. That had a huge effect on me, almost to a ridiculous degree.
It was as if your own ticket for the mail boat was being issued by Joyce and you must shortly leave.
And I did leave, after my degree.
It seems ludicrous now but it was very serious to me. I remember being on the mail boat with my then girlfriend, the two of us in the prow of the ship like in Titanic and leaving Ireland; passing all these Joycean places, Dalkey Island, Sorrento Road and indeed where I grew up as a boy in Monkstown.
Drifting away on the wine dark sea, the boat thronging and being with her never to return. I was fulfilling, in a way, the end of Joyce's book.
Of course, I was back a year later and have been back and forth since as many have been but that's what that book did for me, it made me feel like I had to go.
I think to be a writer you've got to remove yourself somewhat from all sources of toxicity and, in that sense, I'm grateful to him because I understood that and he got me out.
There is an element of the metaphysical about it too. It's about putting yourself physically where the rest of your body can function, or have a chance to function, without present difficulties or childhood stuff that you have yet to work out.
It's a quicker road to that essential and hard-won calm that you need as a writer.
It's not emotion recollected in tranquillity but tranquillity has something to do with it.
Distance was important and I have Joyce and, in particular, this book to thank for that.
Sebastian Barry, award-winning writer and newly appointed Laureate for Irish Fiction, will be discussing the theme of home in his work with Catriona Crowe at the Galway International Arts Festival on July 21. Booking from www.giaf.ie

The Watershed Addiction Treatment Programs Inc – Government Rehab Treatment Centers
September 3, 2017 / / Comments Off on The Watershed Addiction Treatment Programs Inc
Some suggest that lovers continue using until a location becomes available. Even ten 12 months olds are learning and using EFT with overall ease.
Morphine Addiction Center in Prairie
Some suggest that lovers continue using until a place becomes available. Even ten calendar year olds are learning and using EFT with complete ease. Among the fastest and most straightforward ways to eliminate these traumatic remembrances, difficult thoughts, and negative emotions can be an energy psychology recovering modality such as EFT Remedy (Emotional Flexibility Techniques). First of all, it can manifest itself in a great variety of ways. Overall, developing self-confidence is ways to avoid a complete range of debilitating problems. Many people with poor self confidence and low self-confidence tend to stay static in unsatisfying opportunities and human relationships because they don't believe in themselves enough to think that they can do better or have the willpower to improve their standards. If you treasured this article so you would like to acquire more info about 203 (please click the next page www.griffinhealth.org/) nicely visit the page. Alternatively, you might also be willing to put up with abusive action if oneself confidence is poor. Finally, if you have poor self confidence, you are unlikely to be enjoying fulfilling romantic relationships with friends, partners or family. A number of the more repeated activities that cause poor self confidence are addiction or other self applied destructive actions, such as eating disorders. Ultimately, self confidence is a personality characteristic that you should develop early and maintain during your life.
Developing self confidence can be an important skill for personal development, because a insufficient confidence really can hold you back all areas you will ever have. Developing self-confidence early on is just about the best protection against developing addictions, eating disorders and other problems with self image later on. The best thing about EFT Remedy is so it often works very quickly, if not instantly, particularly for things such as mental traumas, physical pain, and allergies. The repeating of an adequately constructed setup expression or declaration while doing the tapping is also type in obtaining the best results. When there is some willingness to try and quit the drug, it appears a pity not to tap into it although it exists. Instead, you just tap with your fingertips on specific acupuncture tips while concentrating on the physical or psychological problem. EFT isn't perfect, of course, but about 80 percent of these who try EFT for a specific problem experience significant results.
Thinking About Alcohol Abuse And Heart Disease? 7 Reasons Why It's Time To Stop!
By tapping on specific things while correctly concentrating on the condition, blockages in the power meridian system are removed, and proper energy stream to all the skin cells of your body is restored, thus curing countless different medical issues. With EFT Remedy, you're simply delivering your skin cells and body the energy/love/fact/peace that it requires to repair itself. Since it actually dissolves and takes away stress, which most traditional methods don't do, EFT Remedy has considerably reduced remedy time from a few months or years down to minutes or hours. EFT Remedy is a form of acupuncture that doesn't use needles. By responding to unresolved psychological issues, EFT Remedy has proved very effective with an exceptionally wide selection of serious diseases, each day health problems, phobias, addictions, psychological traumas, and personal performance goals. Due to the simplicity of EFT Remedy, you can even do it at home on your own. It's known as "a universal recovering aid" since it can be used to help with practically any issue, of your brain or body. Recovering with energy/love/real truth/peace is different then the utilization of pharmaceuticals, where there is one medicine for just one disease.
Energy/love/fact/peace is common, and applies to everything and everyone. If skin cells had no energy, they wouldn't be alive, and the same applies to our body as a whole. Because our cells and body are in all times in a frequent status of regeneration, rebuilding, and curing, diseases are the result of some kind of continuous stress on our cells and body. The clearing of energy blockages is highly important because cells don't just communicate with each other through chemical interactions. This is a simple and basic health fact that cannot be ignored, yet it mainly has been by those who only give attention to the body's chemical interactions. What most people aren't properly aware of is that negative mentalities, psychological stress, and internal injury are one of, if not THE, primary contributors to medical issues and disease. When tense negative lifestyle behaviors and thought processes are let go of, and when life promoting energy and resources are provided, the body can mend itself of virtually anything.
Options are fewer if resources are limited. But 12 step programs are designed to be custom-built, too. Therefore the first rule of beating a drug addiction is to attend relevant twelve step communities. The primary difference between addiction to alcohol and other drugs, unless we're discussing prescribed medication, is usually that the other drugs were obtained illegally. Sometimes, this is just a entry for having less confidence that individual is hiding so that they can impress other folks. Oddly enough enough though, this can be true of folks who might seem (to the casual observer) to exude great self-confidence and self-confidence – in fact, they may also seem brash or over-confident. For most of us, though, that just isn't the truth – as either the process of developing self confidence is stymied in early stages by several factors, or we lose self confidence because of certain life happenings. Nowadays, it is relatively unusual to meet a person who is entirely content with his / her selves level of confidence. A very important factor that may happen is that you'll end up projecting your negative self-worth onto another person, often a child. It could also reveal that the required credibility and humility is missing.
Since there is absolutely no god there may be no help from that one fourth and members are foolish to rely on their thoughts. Although there is still much to find, did you know that the practice of acupuncture has been validated by research? If an addict still has cash available or a health insurance policy that covers treatment in a medical clinic, this may also be the first option. But not always. Sometimes the range is: "you're All right now, off you decide to go and when you have any problems keep coming back and see us." Sometimes clinics run their own every week meetings of patients once they have gone treatment. Some lovers gain admittance to clinic or treatment centers on a crisis basis when they may have almost used to fatality. Because of this, some young women (who are specifically susceptible to this type of problem) have practically starved themselves to death. Only I have rewritten the steps to match my atheist convictions. There is also tiny receptors on their membranes (outer part) that vibrate like tuning forks for the intended purpose of communicating through energy (oscillating vibrational frequencies). The original six-week course offered me and my family access to individual post-treatment conferences at the medical clinic which lasted for a couple of years, but I have extended in AA since.

How do you think Better is Possible? - Resistiré
How do you think Better is Possible?
What have been some inspiring practices, initiatives, and policies in Europe during the pandemic?
What can we learn from them to imagine even better stories of responding to this crisis that we all share, but are not equally affected by?
When it has come to alleviating impact of COVID-19 policies on inequalities, NGOs, local governments, or citizens have developed many initiatives, many "Better Stories". The RESISTIRÉ team collects and highlights particularly relevant initiatives in the EU27 + Serbia, Turkey, the UK, and Iceland, covering eight specific domains: gender-based violence, the labour market, the economy, gender-pay and pension gaps, gender care gaps, decision-making and politics, environmental justice, human and fundamental rights.
Find Better Stories in your country (Europe)
Now the project would like to hear from you! What are your Better Stories of supporting vulnerable groups during the COVID-19 crisis? Have you witnessed or taken part in inspiring initiatives?
Share your Better Stories from one of the 31 countries covered by the project in the form below. We then use these stories as a means of inspiration for policy makers and for designing pilot projects. We also feature a selection of stories on our project website and social media channels.

8 week old lamb with bloat - Page 4 - lifestyleblock discussion forums - LSB - Results from #45
2 months 1 day ago #545222 by LongRidge
Hi McNeish, no she is in Slovakia and cannot get stuff forwarded from England yet.
Si, if these 2 don't survive and/or you decide to do it again, make contact with a dairy or a goat farmer and buy a couple of litres of colostrum. Put it into 500 ml plastic bottles, squeezed before they are sealed because they swell, and keep them in the freezer.
2 months 1 day ago #545225 by Si
I know with lambs that they can die really quickly but keep hoping. Im in Slovenia and iv stuggled to get these two. Wish you could have poped 3 of yours out here, you are only round the corner !!!. In England i would have had no trouble getting day old orphans and used to have an amazing vet but hay ho, you cant have it all. Had to drive 45 mins for Henri and an hour for buxton even though i live in a national park. They just have such few sheep out here, i cant even get lamb at the supermarket without an hours drive. Not that i will eat these. Oh and proof of my maddness buxton was only without a coat for four days not two weeks.. Off to dentist today 2-3 hour drive so neighbour is looking in on little ones, with instructions on what to look for. They both look great today but not had milk or grass yet. Yesterday Henri border line big and this time buxton was a little big, but think thats his meds and not bloat.Strangely cameroons are just as "common" as normal white wolly ones. Can you tell i know my sheep breeds lol. In England if id had land would have liked wenslydales from north yorkshire, although needing shearing. Now feeding time, 5 seconds for Henri 1 hour for buxton.
2 months 22 hours ago #545227 by Kilmoon
Si, just keep at, you're doing everything possible. I must admit I love the rainbow look as well......takes skill to get the skittles look (I haven't had skittles since I was a kid....now I want some!). Take care with that tooth too!
Last Edit: 2 months 22 hours ago by Kilmoon.

Thanks longridge thats a great idea much better than getting cows colostrum from vet. Im sure you will be amused to know there are only 109,000 sheep in Slovenia and 5000 sheep farmers, but then there are only 2 million people. Lovely counrty, mainly forest and not uncommon to see tractors at supermarket carpark with a vending machine for chainsaw and bush cutter parts. Love it here even with problems
2 months 22 hours ago #545229 by Si
Noooooooo skittles ahhhhhhhh how have you managed, they have some here, could post you some Slovenian ones lol. Today after feed and grass no huge bellies only a little puffy so happier leaving them for 6-7 hours. 2nd visit in 8 days hope they sort it this time.

This Christmas, Archbishop Lucas invites us to revisit the story of Our Lord's nativity, paying special attention to the fact that Christ isn't put off by our challenges and weaknesses.
Because your generosity helps equip disciples to serve in parishes, schools, and communities all throughout northeast Nebraska.
A parish is first and foremost a community of Catholic Christians—a place where we gather to celebrate the sacraments, volunteer our time, and share life with one another.
Together, our parishes form a large Catholic family that goes back generations in Nebraska. As early as 1838 when the Jesuit missionary Peter De Smet celebrated Mass in what is now Bellevue, to later in 1856 when Father Edmonds celebrated Mass at St. Mary in downtown Omaha—the first established Catholic Church in the Nebraska territory—our parishes all share a common history.
First, we ask that you read this document: Getting Started. Then, please consider contacting your parish priest or deacon, or one of our Annulment Sponsors. If you prefer to work directly with our Tribunal–which you are free to do, but which we strongly recommend that you do not do–compose a petition and begin gathering the required documentation, as noted in the “Outline of Petition for a Formal Case” (see below).
Couples most benefit from marriage preparation if their FOCCUS facilitation and CEE retreat or MAJ workshop are completed 6 months prior to their wedding day. Please plan ahead so that you have ample time to complete your preparation for this beautiful vocation.
The Archdiocese of Omaha serves more than 19,000 students in 17 secondary and 53 elementary schools. Visit the Love My School Website for more information.
The Archdiocese of Omaha embraces Jesus’ teachings to serve families in every new chapter of their lives. We believe all families share a home in His name. Through our faith, we can provide encouragement, enrich lives and raise new generations whose love will outshine even our own. The Family Life Office offers families a variety of Family Enrichment resources and programs for all cultures by providing parishes with training and resources for service to families across the life cycle.
Archbishop Lucas requires all of our priests, deacons, staff, and volunteers to attend Safe Environment training. Our program is designed to help them become even more aware and responsible leaders while fostering a secure, joy-filled atmosphere for our children.
We recognize that bringing a misconduct complaint to the archdiocese can be a frightening consideration. We want to make this process as caring and easy as possible. We will proceed at the pace that you set, respecting your need to determine when, how and where you wish to speak.
The Profession of Faith is a great place to start when trying to understand what we, as Catholics, believe. We say the prayer every Sunday. The words become so ingrained that as we recite it we sometimes stop thinking about what the words mean. This prayer reinforces the foundation of our Catholic beliefs – beliefs held strong for more than 2,000 years. Here’s what we believe:
We believe that God sent his only son to save all of us from sin. Jesus’ mission was to become man, suffer and die for us, and rise from the dead so we can live eternally with God, his Father.
We believe that the Holy Spirit, united with the Father and the Son, inspired those who came before us long ago and continues to guide us with grace today.
We believe that baptism saves us from sin and cleanses us so we may live forever with God our Father.
Our archdiocesan calendar lists activities and events from parishes, ministries, and apostolates which are pertinent to the Catholic faithful.

Archbishop Lucas has retained the phrase “GRACE AND MERCY.” This phrase is an excerpt from the Book of Wisdom (Wis. 3:9), which reads in full: “Because grace and mercy are with His holy ones, and His care is with His elect.” By the use of this phrase, therefore, His Excellency expresses the deep and profound Christian belief that in and through Jesus Christ, God gives to all of His Children all that they will need to sustain them on their life’s journey and to bring them to full life in heaven.

The Jai Karnataka Rakshana Vedike on Tuesday accused the State Government of failing to protect the interests of medical aspirants in the State by not obtaining a stay against the decision to conduct the National Eligibility and Entrance Test (NEET).
Vedike president Arunkumar Patil said that the Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu governments had already obtained a stay against the decision of the Medical Council of India (MCI) to conduct the NEET.
“States like West Bengal and Gujarat have also filed petitions before the courts seeking a stay on the decision,” he said. Mr Patil said that Karnataka had also not responded to the MCI’s query made by the MCI on the new mode of admission to the medical courses so far.
The MCI had asked all the state governments to respond with their views on the new mode of admission before August 15 this year.
“Only those students who have pursued their education in schools following the Central Board of Secondary Education syllabus will benefit from the test,” he said.
He said most medical aspirants in Karnataka were students of schools following the State board syllabus.
Mr. Patil led a delegation of vdike members and submitted a memorandum to the Additional Deputy Commissioner Latha Kumari, addressed to the Minister for Medical Education S.A. Ramdas.
In their memorandum, they said the MCI had given too little time to medical aspirants to study the course material for the NEET.
I talked today with mci official but he was not a big Authority it sounds from his voice, but he replied that Neet UG 100% will be on 13 may regarding notification I asked then he said we have not yet received for net uploadation as soon we receive we will up load.
Today on 16.11.2011 WB Education Minister & CM Mamata Banerjee held a meeting regarding Medical Entrance, expressed their concern for students and forwarded a letter to Central Health Minister to deside within a week with two conditions, either Question paper to be set in Bengali or sate to be allowed its own Medical Entrance.
I agree with Mamata in this issue. MCI & CBSE should relent and offer vernacular language option for the benefit of students studied in local language medium.

KLM passengers must bring their own face masks on all flights - tartufocracia
FILE PHOTO: KLM airline airplane is seen, as Schiphol Airport reduces its flights due to the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak, in Amsterdam, Netherlands April 2, 2020. REUTERS/Piroschka van de Wouw
AMSTERDAM (Reuters) – Passengers on all flights of KLM, the Dutch subsidiary of Air France KLM, (AIRF.PA) must wear face masks during travel starting on Monday, the airline said in a statement.
Like most major carriers, KLM has grounded almost all its airplanes due to the coronavirus pandemic, but is still operating a small number of flights.
"Wearing facial protection during boarding and on board is mandatory for KLM passengers. Passengers must ensure that they carry the required facial protection with them," KLM said. Passengers without adequate facial protection may be refused boarding at the gate, it added.
The measure applies until 31 August 2020. Children under 10 years of age are exempt.
The International Air Transport Association (IATA), the body representing global airlines, has come out in favour of passengers wearing masks onboard, as debate intensifies over how to get airlines flying while respecting social-distancing rules following the coronavirus crisis.
Air France, the French subsidiary of Air France KLM, announced the same safety precautions on May 5, while Germany's Lufthansa (LHAG.DE) and Hungary's low cost Wizz Air (WIZZ.L) are among other European airlines to already have made it compulsory to wear face masks on flights.

Reactivity of 4.(a) Reactions of 4 with MeOTf, PhC≡CH | Open-i
f4: Reactivity of 4.(a) Reactions of 4 with MeOTf, PhC≡CH and CO2 (13CO2). (b) Solid state structures of 5 (left), 6 (middle) and 7 (right). Thermal ellipsoids are set at the 30% probability level. Hydrogen atoms except for H1 in 6 and solvent molecules are omitted for clarity.
Mentions: To investigate the reactivity of 4, we performed its reaction with methyl trifluoromethanesulfonate (MeOTf). A stoichiometric amount of MeOTf was added to an acetonitrile solution of 4 at ambient temperature. After removing the solvent under vacuum, 5 was obtained in 75% yield (Fig. 4a). An X-ray diffraction study confirmed that methyl group is attached to the boron atom between two carbons in the B2C2N2 ring, whereas an oxygen atom of the triflate is bounded to the boron atom between two nitrogen atoms (Fig. 4b, left). This result, thus, demonstrates that 4 features both nucleophilic and electrophilic boron centres, thereby supporting the electronic property of the resonance structure 4a (Fig. 1). The formal oxidation states of the B1 and the B2 atoms in 4a are +I and +III, respectively. Thus, 4 presents a donor–acceptor mixed valence system.

Intelligent Personal Assistants - The Future Is Now! - TTL
An intelligent personal assistant (IPA) is artificial intelligence software that can perform common utilitarian tasks based on human input. They have become quite the rage recently. Some of the well-known ones are Alexa from Amazon, Siri from Apple, Microsoft Cortana, and Google Assistant. They use voice recognition to process human commands, provide information, or perform certain utilitarian functions. This post looks at the more common examples and explores their current capabilities and how they can impact your privacy and security.
Amazon Alexa– Alexa is the IPA software that powers Echo, which is a smart speaker from the same company. It is a speaker with a microphone array. Using Alexa, it can stream music, audiobooks, podcasts, as well as provide the weather, traffic conditions, etc. Amazon Echo can be programmed to be a home automation hub that can help set the thermostat, control switches, etc. Amazon provides Alexa as a service, which means while making use of it any connected device with a speaker and microphone can be programmed to have the same capabilities.
Apple Siri– Similar to Alexa, Siri is an IPA software that runs primarily on Apple devices such as iPhone, Mac, and Watch. It uses voice recognition software to understand your queries, instructions, etc., and identifies a tool to perform the required action. The tool might be a software application or a web browser. It has connectivity to popular applications such as Maps, restaurant locators, ticketing software, etc. It is also used in CarPlay, which is software used in automobiles to control the audio system, provide navigation assistance, etc.
Microsoft Cortana– Cortana is an IPA from Microsoft. While it is most commonly found and used in PCs which run on Microsoft Windows, Xbox, and Windows phones and tablets. It is also available on iOS and Android devices.
Google Assistant– Google Assistant is the latest entrant into the IPA space and is promoted by Google It runs primarily on Google Pixel (smartphone), and is also integrated into Google Home, which is a device similar to Amazon Echo, as well as Android Auto. Much like the others, it will provide directions, play music, locate places of interest, provide weather information, perform web searches, etc.
When choosing an IPA, be cognizant of the fact that all of their services run on the cloud. This means that the data (your voice) and the commands it executes are all processed in a server somewhere. You will have to provide your personal details to these devices for them to function, e.g. your email address and password if you want the IPA to read out your email to you. Most of the IPAs will do autonomous tasks as well, such as ordering groceries or other items from the internet. While most of the products reviewed here are from some of the most trusted companies in the world, you are still entrusting some of your most personal information to outsiders and you have to be vigilant that your privacy and security are not compromised.

While I agree with Micho on most things and defer to her experience, I differ in my opinion of fishless vs. fish-in cycling. I would not subject a fish, even one as hardy as a Betta, to the high ammonia required of a fish-in cycle. Even 0.25ppm is too high when a fish-in cycle can take months.
If you can get some substrate or filter material from a cycled tank. You can get cycled in less than two weeks. Ask at your pet store or ask a friend. You only need 1/2 cup. Put it under your filter intake. This is the key to a rapid cycle. You might find nitrifying bacteria in a bottle; make sure it's the refrigerated kind.
Get the ammonia up to 4ppm. You don't need to do any water changes until the end, to get rid of high nitrates. A few plants will keep them down. I assume you're using a API liquid water test kit or equivalent.
If you don't want to do a fish-in cycle there's really nothing else. Try to get some gravel, some sort of decor, or filter media from an established tank so you can seed your tank and make the cycle go faster.
Other than that you'll just have to wait till your tank is cycled which may take weeks, so good luck.
There is also no harm in adding the live plants now, these will help the uptake of Ammonia and Nitrite immensely and if you planned on them anyway, add them now.
It really only takes a tiny amount, they may even give it for free..offer a buck and chances are they will take it.

Aldermen To Debate Hyde Park High-rise - tribunedigital-chicagotribune
July 27, 1988|By Cheryl Devall.
A hotly contested Hyde Park high-rise proposal will be the subject of a public hearing Wednesday before the Chicago City Council Committee on Housing. The building at issue, a proposed 155-unit private senior citizens development at 5132-44 S. Hyde Park Blvd., is opposed by Ald. Timothy Evans
(4th) but is supported by the new chairman of the housing committee, Ald. Sheneather Butler (27th), and by Mayor Eugene Sawyer. The mayor is concerned that a $4 million federal Housing Development Action Grant (HODAG) will be lost if the project is not approved soon.
The 21-story building would contain 31 units for low- and moderate-income tenants. It would be developed by a company in which Vincent Lane, newly installed chairman of the Chicago Housing Authority, is a partner.
Butler charged that opponents of the development want to keep poor residents out of their neighborhood. ``They did not want any low-income apartments in that area,`` she said. ``But what else are they going to use the land for?``
Evans, in whose ward the project would be located, was prepared to testify on alternative sites for the high-rise, which he said would occupy some of the most desirable vacant land in Hyde Park.
The proposed site, he said, ``has a view of downtown, the lake and South Shore.``
``I say that is not an appropriate site for HODAG money, because that is meant for development of sites that are hard to develop,`` Evans said.
Evans, a likely mayoral candidate, wants low-rise town houses built on the site, and he suggested that the developers build the high-rise at 47th Street and Lake Park Avenue, ``an area in which we desperately need housing.`` ``There`s been no new construction there in the last three or four decades,`` Evans said. ``That`s where HODAG would need to be used.``
In order to buy time for a needed zoning change on the property, Evans also proposed that he, the developers, city department heads and the corporation counsel petition the Department of Housing and Urban Development for an extension of the federal grant. ``There is a history of that being done,`` he said.
The hearing, originally scheduled for Tuesday, did not take place because there was no quorum, Butler said. The housing committee is to convene at 9:30 a.m. Wednesday in City Hall, and Butler said she hopes to pass the proposal out of committee in time for consideration by the full City Council later in the day.
Sawyer told reporters Tuesday that he hopes the high-rise will be approved by the committee. ``The $4 million HODAG could be lost by Sept. 30. I can`t afford that,`` he said in a separate news conference.
In other council committee action Tuesday, measures to enforce a children`s curfew and to ban the sale of replica guns were recommended for approval by the council`s Police, Fire and Public Safety Committee.
The curfew, an amendment to the municipal code, would allow police to take into custody any person under 17 years of age found in a public place without responsible adult supervision between 10:30 p.m. and 6 a.m. weekdays or 11:30 p.m. and 6 a.m. on weekends. After three offenses, the offender and his or her parent or adult guardian would be referred to mental health counseling through the Chicago Department of Human Services.
Another ordinance would ban the sale or possession of any replica firearm ``that a person could reasonably perceive as an actual firearm, but that is incapable of being fired or discharged.`` The ordinance does not prohibit antique guns or toy and sporting guns marked with orange or red safety stripes down the sides.

Barbier ruled yesterday only on non-governmental economic loss and property-damage claims. The ruling doesn’t cover claims brought by state, local and tribal governments.
The lawsuits also name as defendants Transocean Ltd. (RIG), the Switzerland-based owner and operator of the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig that exploded; Houston-based Halliburton Co. (HAL), which was responsible for cementing services; and Cameron International Corp. (CAM), which provided blowout prevention equipment. BP’s minority partners in the well, Anadarko Petroleum Corp. (APC) and Mitsui & Co.’s Moex Offshore LLC unit, were also sued.
“We’re extremely pleased with the ruling,” Steve Herman, a plaintiffs’ attorney, said in a phone interview. “The court agreed with us on all major points.”

Justia › US Law › Case Law › California Case Law › Cal. App. 2d › Volume 184 › Martin v. Smith
[Civ. No. 19061. First Dist., Div. One. Sept. 14, 1960.]
NOEL MARTIN, Appellant, v. AMELIE L. SMITH, as City Clerk, etc., et al., Respondents.
Rockwell, Fulkerson & Wilson for Appellant.
John B. Ehlen and John H. Riordan for Respondents.
Appellant appeals from a judgment denying his petition for writ of mandate to compel respondent officials of the city of Sausalito to examine, certify and consider a referendum petition protesting the adoption of Resolutions No. 1474 and No. 1475.
1. Are said resolutions legislative in nature and therefore subject to referendum?
2. Are findings necessary?
Record fn. *
The controversy grows out of a lease made by the State Lands Commission in 1951 to Madden and Lewis Company of 9.2 acres (in 1953 increased to 11.22 acres) of filled breakwater or sandspit on submerged land in Richardson Bay, title to which was in the state. The lessee was to use the land for commercial purposes, mainly a yacht harbor and structures and facilities connected thereto. (These were to be somewhat similar to San Francisco's Yacht Harbor and its famous Fisherman's Wharf.) In 1953 (Stats. 1953, ch. 534, [184 Cal. App. 2d 574] p. 1795) the Legislature granted to the city of Sausalito certain tide and submerged lands which included the land above mentioned. The statute provides that the city of Sausalito "may lease said lands, or any part thereof, for limited periods (but in no event exceeding 50 years), for purposes consistent with the trust upon which said lands are held by the State of California, and with the requirements of commerce and navigation at said harbor, and collect and retain rents from such leases, franchises and privileges." The grant recited that it was "[s]ubject to the Madden and Lewis lease." The term of the lease originally was until February 24, 1967, with an option in the lessee to renew for two additional periods of 10 years each. In 1955 the lessee exercised that option and the city extended the lease until 1987. Thereafter Madden and Lewis entered into certain agreements with Clarence C. Kane and Grace Management Corporation providing for a sublease of these and other premises, for the construction of a restaurant and bar, a de luxe motel, a swimming pool, small shops, and a parking area. On November 7, 1956, the council consented to this sublease. December 18, by Resolution No. 1346, the council extended the term of the Madden lease 20 years after February 24, 1987, and included an additional 4.77-acre parcel. The Kane et al. sublease was cancelled. April 7, 1959, Resolution No. 1474 was adopted which approved in principle a proposed sublease from Madden to MacMarin, Inc., final approval reserved until layout of the area as to buildings, landscape, etc., were approved by the city. May 5, 1959, Resolution No. 1475 was adopted. This consented to a sublease from Madden to MacMarin, Inc., until 2007. This constituted final approval by the city council of the sublease subject to certain terms and conditions relative to the nature and cost of the improvements to be constructed.
Within 30 days after the adoption of Resolution No. 1475 a referendum petition was filed with the city clerk protesting the adoption of both Resolutions No. 1474 and No. 1475. The city clerk, on the ground that the resolutions are not subject to referendum, refused, and continues to refuse, to examine said petition and to ascertain therefrom whether the requisite number of signatures appear thereon. Petitioner then sought a writ of mandate to compel the city officials to act in the manner required by law in connection with a valid referendum petition. The superior court refused to issue the writ. [184 Cal. App. 2d 575]
1. Are the Resolutions Legislative or Administrative in Nature?
[1] Acts of a legislative body which are legislative in nature are subject to the referendum process, whereas acts which are administrative in nature are not. [2] The difference between the two types of activity is set forth in McKevitt v. City of Sacramento, 55 Cal. App. 117, 124 [203 P. 132], as follows: "Acts constituting a declaration of public purpose, and making provisions for ways and means of its accomplishment, may be generally classified as calling for the exercise of legislative power. Acts which are to be deemed as acts of administration, and classed among those governmental powers properly assigned to the executive department, are those which are necessary to be done to carry out legislative policies and purposes already declared by the legislative body, or such as are devolved upon it by the organic law of its existence."
McQuillin on Municipal Corporations (3d ed.), volume 5, pages 255-256, states: "Again it has been said: 'The power to be exercised is legislative in its nature if it prescribes a new policy or plan; whereas, it is administrative in its nature if it merely pursues a plan already adopted by the legislative body itself, or some power superior to it.' " (Citing Seaton v. Lackey, 298 Ky. 188 [182 S.W.2d 336, 339].)
[3] Applicable here is the following from Hopping v. Council of City of Richmond (1915), 170 Cal. 605, 611 [150 P. 977]: "To allow it [referendum] to be invoked to annul or delay executive conduct would destroy the efficiency necessary to the successful administration of the business affairs of a city."
The State Lands Commission's action in granting the lease to Madden and Lewis Company "for lawful commercial purposes," pursuant to the company's application for a lease for such purposes, clearly recognized and declared a policy in favor of the use of the land for private commercial purposes. It seems equally clear that the state Legislature, in granting this land and other tidelands to the city "[s]ubject to the Madden and Lewis lease," clearly confirmed and ratified the action of the State Lands Commission. The policy for the private commercial use of the sandspit has, therefore, both the state's legislative and administrative sanction.
[4a] The city, in the case at bar, accepted the trust in the tidelands granted by the state. The city council thereby [184 Cal. App. 2d 576] performed a legislative act, one that fixed the city's policy to administer the trust in accordance with all the obligations attached thereto, including the existing Madden and Lewis Company lease and the right therein specified to use the leasehold "for lawful commercial purposes." It seems obvious that, in administering this trust, the city council was merely carrying out its commitment to fulfill the obligations previously assumed by the trust settlor, the State of California.
The statute granting to the city of Sausalito, in trust, tidelands within its corporate limits, including the "sandspit," sets forth the objects of that trust, and Resolutions No. 1474 and No. 1475 are merely administrative steps toward the carrying out of those objects.
Civil Code, section 718, limits the leases of tidelands and submerged lands granted by the state to a city to a term of 50 years, and includes within the purposes of such leases not only harbor development but "any other public use or purpose consistent with the requirements of commerce or navigation at, or in, any such harbor or harbors."
Government Code, section 37386, provides: "A city may lease such tide and submerged lands and uplands for: (a) Industrial uses. (b) Improvement and development of city harbors. (c) Construction and maintenance of wharves, docks, piers, or bulkhead piers. (d) Other public uses consistent with the requirements of commerce or navigation in city harbors."
[5] Action by the city was necessary, for paragraph 6 of the lease between the state and Madden and Lewis Company provides: "That the Lessee shall not transfer nor assign this agreement and shall not sublet said land nor any part thereof, except upon the prior written consent of the State first had and obtained; ..." The city as successor in interest of the state had to approve the sublease from Madden and Lewis to MacMarin.
The action by the city council was administrative rather than legislative in nature. When Madden and Lewis Company applied for the lease in question they made quite clear the purposes for which the land would be used. [6] The state in granting the lease specified the uses to be "for lawful commercial purposes, the construction, maintenance and use of a yacht harbor and structures and facilities connected thereto." Commercial is an encompassing term, relating to all business, and its use in the lease would seem to indicate the state's intention that business should be carried on on the leased property. To ascribe to the term "for lawful commercial [184 Cal. App. 2d 577] purposes" any other interpretation would be to label the Legislature's insertion of the phrase an idle act.
Appellant concedes that insofar as the council was merely approving a sublease under the Madden and Lewis lease as to purposes covered by that lease, the council was acting only in an administrative capacity. However, he contends that the purposes expressed in the Madden and Lewis lease for which the leased premises could be used "for lawful commercial purposes, the construction, maintenance and use of a yacht harbor and structures and facilities connected thereto," did not include such commercial purposes as "a first-class restaurant, with a cocktail lounge, and, thereafter, small shops, and other improvements as it [MacMarin, Inc.] shall determine, designed to develop the subleased area to its best available use, including the catering to, and serving, yachtsmen, boat owners and others using the waters adjacent thereto," which are set out in the resolutions and in the sublease, and therefore in granting the sublessee those excess purposes the council was acting legislatively. (Incidentally, the general layout, design and location of the permitted structures and improvements, requiring a certain parking area and access to the shore of said premises as shown on a certain photograph, are required to be followed by the resolutions and the sublease.)
[7] In construing the purposes for which the premises may be used under the Madden and Lewis lease, the application to the State Lands Commission for such lease is relevant. That application stated that Madden and Lewis desired to construct on the "sandspit" facilities similar to those at San Francisco's Yacht Harbor and at Fisherman's Wharf, which would include in addition to the then existing yacht harbor which would be improved, "accommodations for the serving and sale of sea food and meals ... an oil and gas station ... a parking space for automobiles, and various additional facilities for the berthing of boats, yachts and small craft, and other facilities for the accommodation of such craft and their owners."
To adopt appellant's interpretation of the purposes set forth in the original lease would require the complete elimination therefrom of the words "for lawful commercial purposes."
It is clear that the term "commercial purposes" in the original lease covered more than strictly a yacht harbor, although today the facilities of yacht harbors generally include [184 Cal. App. 2d 578] such facilities as restaurants and cocktail lounges. The resolution and sublease require that the sublessee must maintain the physical integrity and structure of the sandspit which served as a breakwater to protect small craft.
Section 6501.1 of the Public Resources Code provides that the State Lands Commission may lease state lands under its jurisdiction "for such purpose or purposes as the commission deems advisable, including but not limited to grazing leases, leases for commercial or industrial purposes, ..." In making the lease the State Lands Commission knew the purposes for which Madden and Lewis intended to use the land, and in granting the lease construed such purposes to be within the power given it in section 6501.1 to lease for "commercial" purposes and such purposes are consistent with the trust upon which said lands were conveyed to the city, and with the requirements of commerce and navigation of said harbor. [8] The term "commercial purposes" in the master lease must be interpreted in view of the holding in San Pedro etc. R. R. Co. v. Hamilton (1911), 161 Cal. 610 [119 P. 1073, 37 L.R.A. N.S. 686]: "The purpose of the constitutional provision [Const., art. XV, § 3, dealing with tidelands] was not to blight commercial enterprise, but to foster it." (P. 620.)
[4b] The council was merely implementing the policies declared by the state in the lease and reaffirmed in the grant to the city, which was given subject to the lease. These acts were administrative in nature and not subject to referendum.
[9] Appellant contends that the judgment is void because of the absence of findings, on what he contends are controverted questions of fact. The pleadings concede the legislative conveyances by the state to the city, the state lease, the acceptance of the state lease by the city and the adoption of the resolution. The only dispute of fact relates to certain allegations in appellant's petition as to the present and proposed uses of the land, which allegations respondents' answer controverts. The sole legal question presented was whether or not referendum would lie as to the resolution. This question would not be affected by the determination of whether appellant's statement of the uses to which the land would be put, or that of respondents, was correct. However, this proceeding was heard and determined on oral argument alone, and judgment was rendered without the taking of any evidence. The court determined the matter as an issue of law [184 Cal. App. 2d 579] alone. In his closing brief appellant states that the matter was heard and determined as an issue of law, "the issue being whether the facts set forth in Appellant's Petition entitled Appellant to the relief sought." Under well-established rules, no findings are required where the judgment is based solely on an issue, or issues, of law. (Wheeler v. Board of Medical Examiners (1929), 98 Cal. App. 267, 268 [276 P. 119]; see also Delany v. Toomey (1952), 111 Cal. App. 2d 570, 572 [245 P.2d 26].)
In view of our decision that Resolutions No. 1474 and No. 1475 were administrative in nature, we deem it unnecessary to discuss the contention made by respondents that the leasing of tidelands is not a municipal affair.
FN *. See Martin v. Smith, 176 Cal. App. 2d 115 [1 Cal. Rptr. 307], where we discussed the effect on this proceeding of the passage of another resolution numbered 1485.

At RSM102.0FM
August and September prove to be a very busy time for RSM. After weeks of recruiting volunteer workers from local Alliance churches, we organized a series of trainings for more than 30 potential volunteers. The trainings take place on several Saturdays, from mid-August to the end of September. Nicaise Kitsoukou-Ngoma, John Combest, Beverly Bellamy, and I each teaches different aspects of the ministry at RSM.
Jeannette Mikouiza is one of the first two volunteers we recruited after RSM re-launched in April 2020. She and Honorine Boulombo have become invaluable partners for me in RSM Chaplaincy and narrative songwriting. When I first met Jeannette, she was not happy and struggled to find direction in life. She had hard time holding a job due to healthy reason. She also felt bitter and hurt by the rejections experienced in ministry. With the recent death of one of her brothers, the burden of taking care of their aging mother with advanced diabetes weighted heavily on her shoulders.
Since she started to serve as a volunteer in RSM Chaplain team, she has been coming to the radio 3 days each week for prayer ministry on and off the air. Every Tuesday at 12:30 PM, the chaplain team pray with listeners LIVE on the air. Once a few weeks, after the live show, she would call to follow up with those who sent in prayer requests. Every Friday from 1:00 to 3:00 PM, she hosts a program on the radio with soft worship music and Scripture reading. I also encouraged her to see her mother not as a burden but the primary ministry that God has called her to do in this stage of her life. As the result of her involvement in RSM, she is much happier as she has found purpose in life.
Serving as a volunteer is a super-strange concept for the Congolese. It is unattractive and challenging especially when jobs are scarce, wages are low, and people are poor. As I am writing up this ministry update, Merveil Biziki is working on creating a jingle for RSM after the training on audio production. He is a one of the night guards we hire for the radio. He volunteers his time and talent to serve the Lord in the area he enjoys doing while trusting God to provide for him what he needs in life.
Hagar Project: A Holistic Discipleship Ministry to Widows without Family Supports
Due to extreme poverty and traditional culture practices, widows, both young and old, have been treated unjustly after the death of their husbands and are often left with little or no family support. Younger widows with children face tremendous challenges in providing for the family and raising their children alone. God has brought into our attention the needs of widows without family support in the Alliance churches in Pointe-Noire. We want partner with the local Alliance Women to create a holistic discipleship ministry in a safe living environment, where older widows can teach younger single-mothers with their children, modeling godly family living. We are calling it the Hagar Project (La Maison d'Agar 夏甲之家).
Thank you for giving financially to help support this new initiative. Two single mothers, Chancelvie and Almeria, have temporarily moved into David and Teresa Bill's apartment with their children. We are praying and looking for a rental property to house them before the Bills' return from home assignment in November. It has really worked very well for both families, and they are looking forward to settling in their new home.
If you sense God's moving to financially support them, you can give to Chia-Lin Yu's Ministry Package with a memo specifying for the Hagar Project.
Teaching English at La Plantation
The children have been out of school since the end of June until the beginning of October. La Plantation is facing a serious problem of teacher shortage. Before the school starts, they need to recruit a qualified school principal and 2 teachers. This appears to be quite challenging for the school since this is a private Christian school. The character and faith of the potential candidates need to be taken into consideration. Except the 4 children who graduated in June, I hope to see all my students return to La Plantation in October.
1. Thank the Lord for the daily ministries at the Radio Sangu Ya Mbote à Pointe-Noire. Please pray that (1) God will use the daily program to bless and equip the listeners. (2) God will protect RSM from all corruptions and injustice so it may remain faithful to God's purpose and vision for the radio to broadcast God's word and sound biblical teachings. (3) May the Holy Spirit be present and anoint the RSM Chaplain Team whenever people call or stop by at the radio asking for prayer, counseling, or help. We are encouraged to know that more and more people are tuning in to "Let's Pray Together" LIVE at RSM every Tuesday from 12:30 to 13:00. (4) Please ask the Lord to send good volunteers to serve at the radio. Please pray for their health, family, and financial needs so they can continue to serve. Please pray for the training on radio journalism on September 25. (5) Please pray for wisdom in organizational restructuring and workable strategies in generating revenues from local listeners so the radio can become self-sustainable. (6) Please pray that we will successfully obtain the title deem of the radio property without paying an unreasonably high amount of real estate taxes. Please pray for patience and perseverance.
2. From September 8 to 11, the Alliance pastors will be meeting in Pointe-Noire for a continuous education on character formation and pastoral leadership. Jay and Beverly Bellamy with a team of "Freedom To Lead" trainers will be guiding the participants in tackling various challenging issues relevant to African pastors. Please pray for paradigm and heart changes for deeper holiness.
3. God has brought to our attention the needs of widows without family supports in local Alliance churches. With extreme poverty, local churches may not be able to provide consistent support for them, especially those with children. Please pray for affordable and safe housing for them and their children. Please pray that the local Alliance women will be moved to partner with the missionary team. Please pray for wisdom for this ministry.
4. Please pray for the APH songwriting team. We just finished the narrative song, Cain and Abel, in French. Jeannette and Honorine will be working on translation to Kituba. Please pray for a good translation of the lyrics.
5. Please remember David and Teresa Bill in prayer. They are currently doing 1 year home assignment in the US. They are preparing to return to Pointe-Noire in early November this year. Please pray that David's mother will have peace about it.
6. Thank you for praying for Emily Combest who is doing well in her pregnancy with their third child. All is well with her and the baby. As her due date approaches in late September, please pray for her and the baby to stay healthy. Pray for safe delivery.
7. Please pray for John Combest's brother, Joshua Combest, who became critically ill with COVID a few weeks before he and his family were scheduled to move to California for a full-time pastoral ministry. He is currently in an ICU in Boston. His condition remains stable but critical, still not awaken from induced coma. He and his wife have 3 young girls. Please remember them in your prayer.
8. Our team is getting smaller. Please pray that God will send more prepared and qualified workers to join the Congo South Team in Pointe-Noire.
9. Please continue to pray for my mother's salvation. She is 73. May she come to know experientially the love and goodness of Jesus Christ so that she will truly trust Jesus as her personal Lord and Savior.
The ministry of Chia-Lin depends on the financial support of people like you. Take a moment to consider how you can help today.
