Students may pursue minors outside the four traditional subfields of political science. The most common such minors are quantitative methods, economics, political economic theory, and law. The department has defined requirements for these "special minors."
Students must declare a special minor by the end of their third semester by completing the appropriate form as indicated below in the description and requirements for each minor field.
With the exception of the economics minor, special minors do not take a minor field comprehensive exam. Instead, students write and defend a special minor paper, which is graded by a committee of three faculty members. These papers must be defended with a passing grade by the end of January of the student’s third year in the Ph.D. program.
The department advises students pursuing special minors to complete course requirements and defend special minor papers by the beginning of the fifth semester. Special minor paper defenses should take place no later than early in the fifth semester. Defending the minor paper early in the fifth semester will allow time for any revisions needed for a passing grade to be completed before the January deadline.
The student should consult with the defense committee to set the defense date and time and to establish the date the special minor paper needs to be circulated to the committee in advance of the defense. This consultation should take place well before the proposed defense date because the committee may require that the paper be submitted several weeks in advance.
Once this consultation is complete, the student should notify the Graduate Program Coordinator of the examination date, time, location, and committee membership. The Coordinator will then confirm these details with the committee and ensure that the department record of the defense is complete.
All special minor requirements must be completed by the end of January of the student’s third year in the Ph.D. program. Students who fail to complete minor field requirements by this deadline will not be eligible to receive the M.Phil. degree and will be terminated from the program.
Failure to defend a special minor paper on time is equivalent to failing comprehensive exams twice.
The minor in quantitative methods (“methods,” or “methodology”) is intended for political science doctoral students whose research plans call for a strong background in statistics or mathematical modeling.
After the completion of all coursework, the student will submit and defend a research paper that demonstrates ability to deploy advanced quantitative methods and/or mathematical modeling in service of substantive research in political science.
Successful defense of the methods paper and the maintenance of a 3.0 average in the quantitative courses taken for the minor will determine whether the student has successfully completed the minor in quantitative methods.
The exam paper may not be used for seminar credit in any other course, and it may not be used to fulfill the Mini-APSA requirement.
No course taken in fulfillment of the research tool requirement may count toward any part of the minor in quantitative methods, and no course taken in fulfillment of the minor in quantitative methods may count toward the research tool requirement.
The economics minor is intended for political science doctoral students whose research plans call for a strong background in an area of economics.
Upon completion of all coursework, the student's advisers will prepare and grade an examination that covers the material the student proposed to study.
Information about the course sequence for completing the economics minor should be obtained from the Department of Economics.
For a minor in law, students must take no fewer than three courses in the School of Law and must work with three professors, at least one of whom is appointed in the Department of Political Science, who agree to read an original research paper (i.e., a new paper that has not been prepared for course credit) and conduct an oral defense of the paper. The Director of Graduate Studies must approve these arrangements.
The minor in political economic theory is intended for political science doctoral students whose research plans call for a strong background in theoretical economic models of political institutions and behavior.The minor will usually include four courses.
The second elective may be another course subject to approval by the minor coordinator. Alternatives include any political science doctoral seminar with an extensive formal theory component, or a course from the Economics department such as GR6225 (Topics in Economic Analysis) or GR6219 (Advanced Micro II).
After the completion of all coursework, the student will submit and defend a research paper demonstrating ability to deploy formal modeling in service of research in political science. A “satisfactory” grade on this paper, the maintenance of a B average in the courses taken for the minor, and a satisfactory performance in the student's oral exam will determine whether the student has successfully completed the minor.
The paper may not be used for seminar credit in any other course. No course taken in fulfillment of the research tool requirement may count toward any part of the minor in political economic theory, and no course taken in fulfillment of the minor in political economic theory may count toward the research tool requirement.
Students may, with department approval, fulfill the minor field requirement by constructing a minor field (an individually designed minor). Individually designed minor fields must be directly relevant to topics in the field of political science, but may include work in disciplines other than political science.
Any student who wishes to fulfill the minor field requirement with a special minor must submit a proposal for this field to the Director of Graduate Studies and receive approval from the Director of Graduate Studies and another faculty sponsor. The proposal must specify three courses the student will take in the special minor field, one of which must be equivalent in scope to the department’s field survey courses (note that this course is taken in addition to the three departmental field survey courses). In addition, the student must submit an original research paper in the special minor field and must successfully defend the research paper to a committee of three members of the faculty, at least one of whom must be a member of the Department of Political Science.
The student will be certified by the Director of Graduate Studies to have fulfilled the minor field requirement when he or she has taken and passed the three minor field courses with an average grade of B or better, submitted the research paper, and passed the oral examination. | 2019-04-21T00:54:50 | https://polisci.columbia.edu/content/special-minors |
Emblem Showroom and Media Playground invited bloggers, stylists, and buyers to Station Hollywood at the W Hollywood for a preview of their clients’ AW15 Collections. The fashionable event was sponsored by Charles David, Rock Me Cosmetics, Ashley Michaelsen, and Pedi Princess.
Even though it was February it was a beautiful, warm evening in Los Angeles - perfect for sipping complementary cocktails (courtesy of Belvedere) under the stars.
Before the preview started I had the opportunity to chat with the rep for Exofab. Exofab is a leading developer and manufacturer of specially designed cases for smart phones. Their latest is a gel guard case that will stick to a flat, nonporous surface (mirror, window, glass…), which makes it easier to take the perfect selfie. It also comes with a QR code that you can use to download the Exofab camera timer selfie app. It truly is a selfie addict’s dream come true!
I also got to check out the beautiful creations from Natasha Morse jewelry. What started out as a hobby for Natasha quickly turned into a passion. Inspired by the metaphysical properties and healing energies of gemstones, her distinctive necklaces and bracelets are intricately-detailed and crafted out of the highest-quality semi-precious stones, crystals, and gold-plated flat wire. These “stand-out” pieces are gorgeous and can be worn anytime, anywhere.
The first installation of the evening was by Ashley Michaelsen. Being a petite gal, Ashley (actress/model/designer) creates flirty dresses that are flattering to the proportions of a diminutive hour glass figure. Her design aesthetic can be described as New York chic meets Hollywood glam with a touch of sass and perfection.
Next up was Inder Dhillion – a Canadian born designer who now calls Australia home. This contemporary womenswear line featured pieces that were sporty mixed with city chic.
Here’s a shot of me rockin’ this chic maxi skirt from AZUL.

If you don't want to default a delivery block on every one of that customer's orders (which you can do in the customer master record), then when DO you want to block them? Your question is a little unclear.
Without coding any user exits, and without "changing the master data every time", you can do one of four things: 1- don't block any orders at all, 2- default a delivery block for all orders of a certain order type (which can be removed if necessary in the order), 3- default a delivery block into every order for a given customer (which can be removed if necessary in the order), and 4- manually block individual orders by setting the delivery block in the order as you create it. There may be even more options which escape me right now, and then there's the user exit route for more complicated requirements.
I need a way to block a customer's order from creating a delivery. But I do not want to change the master data every time. How can I do it ? | 2019-04-24T04:55:15 | http://sd.sapland.com/2011/10/resap-log-sd-delivery-block_13.html |

Great article.. Thanks for posting it.. Surely green energy is the way ahead.. You have drafted the article nicely on 3d solar panels.. and the best part is it does not cost much.. i always wanted to set up such a panel system but was apprehensive of the cost factor.. Thank you! DIY 3D Solar Panels is in my budget..
Thank you for stopping by and sharing your thoughts about the 3D Solar Panel System. I’m glad that you found the information useful.
I have a log cabin in the mountains of North Carolina and I’m in the process of building a 3D Solar Panel System. I’m almost done and should be all powered up by the end of next month.
So far, everything inside the 3D Solar Panels Guide has been easy to follow and I love the step-by-step videos as well. They really help!
I’m going to be powering the whole cabin permanently so I still have quite a few solar panels to build. The best part is, I’ve only spent about $300 in materials so far.
Please come back and share your progress on your 3D Solar Panel project. Thanks again for visiting today. Good luck building your own 3D Solar Panel System Huzefa.
This book is great. We were looking at getting some solar panels, but we are renting. As such our landlord won’t let us put battens and then solar panels on our roof. Due to the cost, we would definitely want to take them with us to the next house. This product solves that problem for us. Thanks for letting us know about it. My question to you is how do you attach them back into the mains power on your house? Do you need an electrician or is it a different circuit only?
I’m glad that you like the DIY 3D Solar Panels Guide. There is lots of valuable information making your 3D Solar Panel project much easier to complete.
Even though you are in a rental property you can still use the 3D Solar Panel System to power you appliances or you can scale it up to power everything.
The best pat is you can easily remove and take your 3D Solar Panel System with you to your forever home. That’s exactly what my friend did.
He’s actually the guy that introduced me to the 3D Solar Panel System and when he told me that he built his himself. I was all in after that.
If you plan on using your 3D Solar Panel System as your main power supply, you do have to hire an electrician to properly hook everything up.
Unless you have some experience with electricity, I would just go ahead and hire an electrician to be on the safe side and make sure all the wires are hooked up properly.
Thank you for stopping by and asking such great questions about the 3D Solar Panel System. I almost forgot to mention that it comes with step-by-step video tutorials.
You actually get to see each step of the building process on video making it so much easier than reading a book and trying to figure out blueprints.
Thanks again for visiting and I wish you the best of luck with your 3D Solar Panel project. Please come back and let me know how everything works out! | 2019-04-19T13:22:29 | https://redhotdeals.org/diy-3d-solar-panels-guide-2018-now-only-49-97/ |
One Wall Street, a 56-storey Art Deco skyscraper in Manhattan, New York, is undergoing an extensive refurbishment and will soon be home to a series of luxury condos as well as a 74,000 sq ft (6,900 sq m) Life Time Fitness-branded wellness centre.
The limestone building, which was designed by prolific 20th-century architect Ralph Walker and acquired by Macklowe Properties in 2014, will comprise 566 studio- to four-bedroom apartments, in addition to a penthouse.
Residents will have special access to a golf simulator, indoor and outdoor lounges, and a 75-foot swimming pool.
The site's four-floor Life Time Athletic Lifestyle Resort, set to be the company's second Manhattan venue, will also play host to a full-service spa, beauty salon, gym, and cafe.
Additionally, the development's premises will boast a 44,000 sq ft Whole Foods Market.
New York-based office SLCE Architects are overseeing One Wall Street's makeover, which will also see the structure's Hildreth Meière-designed tile mosaic restored to its former glory.
Richard Dubrow, marketing director at Macklowe, told Well Home: "This is a grand Art Deco masterpiece that has the beauty of a museum with wide halls and a high ceiling.
"The building embraces both its history and innovation to create an intimate modern space for young professionals to live in and enjoy."
One Wall Street is anticipated to be completed in 2020; prices for apartments will start at US$960,000 (€851,241, £733,564). | 2019-04-25T06:31:41 | http://www.wellhomeglobal.com/news/Revamped-Art-Deco-tower-slated-to-feature-74000-sq-ft-wellness-centre-and-residences/341472 |
At the Gillian Institute, we believe in educating patients, presenting the options, and including our patients in the informed decisions regarding their choice to have surgery. Dr. Kimberly Short strongly believes that surgery should be “tailored” or personalized for each patient and their specific anatomy and desires. Every patient is unique and Dr. Short strives to care for each patients individual needs and concerns.
Dr. Short’s dream of creating a surgery center and medical team focused on providing the highest quality plastic surgery care was realized with the opening of the JKS Surgery Center and The Gillian Institute for Plastic, Aesthetic, and Laser Surgery. The Gillian Institute is named after her daughter, Gillian, which means “Youthful One” in Latin.
Dr. Short’s dream of creating a medical center, including a spa and surgery center with a medical team focused on providing the highest quality specialized plastic surgery care in an elegant, comfortable, confidential setting for patients, has been fulfilled. When Dr. Kimberly Short opened her practice and a state-of-the-art plastic surgery facility, her goal was to establish a team of compassionate professionals with expertise in caring for cosmetic surgery patients and providing a comfortable environment with a focus on continuity of patient care. This remains true today! Dr. Short, her staff, and facility are devoted to providing the highest care in a safe, relaxed and confidential environment.
According to her patient satisfaction surveys conducted annually, 98% of her patients say they would return again for surgery and would recommend Dr. Kimberly Short to a friend or family member.
Her meticulous attention to detail, compassionate staff and obvious empathy all help to assure patients they will be very well cared for throughout the experience. Dr. Kimberly Short’s style is as a “perfectionist.” She is committed to artistic excellence, honesty and integrity with uncompromising safety. All procedures are performed in a private, on-site, AAAASF-accredited surgical center.
Dr. Kimberly Short believes there is no patient or surgery that is “routine.” Each procedure is specially designed and tailored to achieve the absolute best results for each patient. Dr. Kimberly Short takes the time to discover and to fully understand her patients’ desires and concerns. She then applies her surgical skills and artistic eye to enhance their lives through plastic surgery.
Dr. Kimberly Short believes that plastic surgery is a true blend of art and science, with the power to renew and rejuvenate.
The fundamental roots of plastic surgery are in reconstructing and restoring. Plastic Surgery is an art and Dr. Kimberly Short is an artist every day with patients. The art of plastic surgery can change a person in how they see themselves and allow empowerment in their lives. Dr. Kimberly Short understands this unique gift especially with her first hand perspective as a female, mother of four children, and understanding the benefit of plastic surgery herself. This insight allows Dr. Kimberly Short to understand the special emphasis on maintaining natural, feminine contours of the face, breast, and body.
Dr. Kimberly Short understands the sense of discovery that takes place during the consultation process and the success that lies in listening to the patient. At the consultation, patients understand the concept and importance of attention to details at the Gillian Institute. Patients are given detailed, worthwhile information from clinical staff members as well as Dr. Kimberly Short. Extensive examples of before and after pictures and a holistic approach to skin care, the practice offers detailed proof that establishes the expectation of natural beauty.
Dr. Kimberly Short’s strength and focus is on personalizing each treatment option to create a result that looks rejuvenated, but most importantly, also looks natural.
This philosophy creates a harmonious new you, a more confident you, but still you. Our goal is to spend time educating patients at the consultation about their procedure(s) and choices to ensure a satisfying experience from start to beautiful finish. The consultation and experience at the Gillian Institute should represent a personalized, comprehensive and compassionate experience tailored to a patients every need, from the initial consultation to the finished goal. All of her patients are given her home and cell phone numbers after their surgery.
The consultation process is designed at the Gillian Institute to provide our patients with the knowledge to make an informed decision about proceeding with a procedure or surgery. We want our patients to take a proactive approach and participate in the decision making process with Dr. Kimberly Short. The consultation process will allow Dr. Kimberly Short to listen to your desires and concerns including recovery period limitations and expectations of desired results, perform an examination of your anatomy, and discuss treatment options with desired outcomes. The environment is ideal for open communication between yourself and Dr. Kimberly Short and she will give you honest, direct recommendations based on her expertise with plastic surgery.
Dr. Kimberly Short will review your past medical history and current medications, discuss the desired results with each potential option, risk versus benefit ratio and an outline for a recovery period. After the consultation, you will feel confident and comfortable with the option(s) discussed, expectations, recovery period, and be well educated on the the options available for you. | 2019-04-21T18:17:19 | https://www.indyplasticsurgery.com/about-indianapolis-plastic-surgery/ |
– The National Wrestling Hall of Fame announced on Wednesday that Randy Couture will be honored as the organization’s Outstanding American for 2018.
Couture joins Distinguished Members Stephen Abas, Lee Allen, Henry Cejudo and Kristie Davis, Meritorious Official Gary Kessel, Order of Merit recipient Nancy Schultz Vitangeli, and Medal of Courage recipient James McCloughan, who were announced on Oct. 26.
The Class of 2018 will be inducted at the 42nd Annual Honors Weekend on June 1-2, 2018 in Stillwater, Oklahoma. For more information on Honors Weekend, please telephone (405) 377-5243.
Past recipients have included individuals who have excelled in science, technology, business, industry, government, military, and arts and humanities.
Couture wrestled at Lynnwood High School in Lynnwood, Washington, and was a Washington state champion as a senior. After graduating high school, he served six years in the United States Army from 1982-88, and attained the rank of sergeant in the 101st Airborne. Couture then attended Oklahoma State where he was a three-time All-American, finishing sixth in 1990 and second in 1991 and 1992 while helping the Cowboys win the team title in 1990 and finish second in 1991 and 1992. He was a National Wrestling Coaches Association First-Team All-Academic in 1991 and 1992, and graduated with a bachelor’s degree in foreign language and literature.
Couture wrestled at the World Championships in Greco-Roman in 1991, 1993, 1995 and 1997, when he finished ninth, and was an Olympic team alternate in 1988, 1992 and 1996 and a semifinalist at the Olympic Trials in 2000.
He was a six-time UFC world champion and was the only competitor to hold titles in both the heavyweight and light heavyweight divisions. Couture became the fourth fighter inducted into the UFC Hall of Fame in 2006, and was inducted into the Oklahoma State College of Arts & Sciences Hall of Fame in 2016.
As an actor he has appeared in the hit films “The Expendables,” “The Expendables 2,” and the “Expendables 3,” opposite Sylvester Stallone and Bruce Willis, as well as on television. He recently completed filming “Alpha Code,” a science-fiction film, and “Row,” a murder mystery.
Couture has his own chain of gyms, Xtreme Couture MMA, and a clothing line, Xtreme Couture MMA Clothing. He also founded and runs the Xtreme Couture GI Foundation, which raises awareness and financially supports wounded veterans. Couture teamed with Jay Glazer of Fox Sports and Green Beret and NFL player Nate Boyer to create Merging Vets and Players (MVP), which is a program designed to address challenges that many combat veterans and professional athletes face when transitioning their service/professional life towards a new mission in their civilian life. He and Glazer also created MMAthletics, which trains professional athletes from various sports in the ways of mixed martial arts and how that training can be applied to their respective sports.
America’s shrine to the sport of wrestling, the National Wrestling Hall of Fame & Museum was founded as a nonprofit organization in 1976 to honor the sport of wrestling, preserve its history, recognize extraordinary individual achievements, and inspire future generations. The National Wrestling Hall of Fame has museums in Stillwater, Oklahoma, and Waterloo, Iowa. The Stillwater, Oklahoma, location reopened in June 2016 following a $3.8 million renovation and now features interactive exhibits and electronic kiosks, as well as the opportunity to watch NCAA Championship matches from the 1930s to present day. It also has the John T. Vaughan Hall of Honors where the greatest names in wrestling are recognized, including iconic granite plaques presented to Distinguished Members since the Hall of Fame opened in 1976. The museum has the largest collection of wrestling artifacts and memorabilia in the world, including the most collegiate and Olympic wrestling uniforms. Wrestling truly is for everyone and the diversity and accessibility of the sport continues to be highlighted through exhibits featuring females, African Americans, Native Americans, and Latino Americans. There is also a library featuring historical documents, including NCAA guides and results, as well as books on the sport. | 2019-04-19T12:22:21 | http://www.nwcaonline.com/national-wrestling-hall-fame-announces-randy-couture-2018-outstanding-american/ |
So my son is sick again. He is turning 3 in two weeks. He is prone to febrile seizures.
The last time he had an episode was hours before he turned 2 then he had mini-seizures in his sleep. Like two more times. Now he caught a virus from daycare which would normally set other children back 24 hours. Fever and vomiting. For him, having a seizure is a constant threat hanging low over his head. At least for me. His father is stronger than I am.
I am fighting my own demons.
I am constantly watching his monitor. Even at night. It’s a sick obsession.
I have joined support groups on Facebook that are made up of parents who are struggling with febrile seizures attacking their babies. When I first joined, I read about the sad story of a 3-year-old who was taken from this life by a seizure. It was debilitating. The story and the mother and her advocacy and trying to understand was beyond hopeless. My anxiety increased when I read that story and I started researching even more. There is no known cure nor prevention of febrile seizures. It seems the medical community has just accepted it as a “common event” for children and they “will grow out of it by the age of 5 or 6”.
What?! I can’t sleep out of fear and incapacitating anxiety for 5 or 6 years????
As a mother of a baby who suffers from seizures, I have to confess, there is nothing worse than seeing it happen. The pronounced shakes, the foaming at the little mouth, the whole-body stiffness, the exhaustion afterwards and he does not even know what is happening. I read other parent’s encounters on Facebook and I write them comments to support them but it’s not good enough. I went to therapy and I paint, knit and even write songs but it’s not therapeutic enough.
We need more research about this. We need to give parents better ways to cope with this. I was told in the Emergency Room by the doctor who finally got around to seeing my son, 5 hours after his seizure- that even Tylenol and Advil and controlling his temperature will not stop a seizure.
I hate them every time they occur. Every single second that my son’s body is out of his own control with his eyes rolled up. Every time that he is not “conscious”. I hate their powerful hold over him and over me. I hate how scared I am and how tired he looks afterwards. I hate the fact that he has to get them. I hate not knowing when and how he will get them. I hate not being told that they can be deadly. I simply hate it all.
Despite the fact that they may outgrow the seizures, we will never forget the misery, the worry and the pain of seeing our child this way. Febrile seizures are killing our insides a little bit at a time. There is numbness on the edges of my heart.
I still pray but inside me I am filled with rage and frustration.
I question why certain children get it. Why others don’t? There has to be some research done on precursors- a gene, a chromosome, a virus, a predisposition, something.
There has to be an answer. This is incredibly hard. I can’t explain nor describe the sickening feeling of dread and tight knots in my belly as I watch him on the monitor tonight. It’s like waiting, and knowing, that something really bad will happen.
It’s being ready with clothes on in case you need to go to hospital or call 911. It’s having a packed hospital bag hanging off your stairs banister near the door. It’s having more than 10 bottles of Children’s Tylenol and Advil and Motrin everywhere. It’s the constant, gnawing, persistent and ever-slow tapping on your nerves. It’s the fervent prayer in the night as you sleep with one eye open while the other watches and counts every rise and fall of the chest. It’s my palm on his chest to check his heartbeat. My heartbeat. We are one and we are connected. I don’t know if I can do this.
If you are reading this and you know how it feels, please know you are not alone. It may be common but that doesn’t make it easier. It may be minor but that doesn’t make it any simpler for us to digest or comprehend. It may be transient or temporary but it is no less traumatizing.
I am left with PTSD as a result of his seizures. I am always anxious and scared to be away from him. I hate the fever/seizure watch with a passion.
I am but a former shadow of myself. I used to be brave and so strong. Now, I am fearful that I will lose one of the sweetest gifts God ever granted me.
Please keep me in your thoughts. And keep him in your thoughts as well.
There is nothing more painful or exhilarating than successfully potty training your child. You feel like you won an Oscar or climbed the highest mountain. The sense of achievement you felt the day you graduated or obtained your first real promotion is no comparison… as if you did this all on your own. Then the stark realization smacks you upside the head that this is what your parents must have felt like when you did something great growing up.
I don’t think I can be a prouder mommy than when my little toddler goes – “Mommy, I nee’ to Pee pee now”. We rush over to the toilet, we pull down the pants and then… the sweet sound of freedom- aaahhhh. No more pull-ups, stinky messes, nasty blow-outs or wet pants. Sooooooooo exciting!!
I look at my toddler and see the little preschooler emerging and ask – “When did that happen?!” – hence the title. But seriously, when did she start talking in complete sentences? When did she start empathizing with me (“Awww, mommy, you are so cute- are you hurt?”) When did she turn into this inquisitive, intelligent, insanely happy child?
These past few months have been challenging but fun. I have been busy trying to re-energize my business and manage my staff that I forgot to see the little changes in my big girl along the way. This morning she woke me up a little earlier and I spoke with her and played with her. She surprised me with how much she’d grown in the past three weeks. She knows which mitt goes where. She can put her boots on the right feet on her own. She understands that letters makes sounds. She know how to sing “A,B,C,D,E,F,G, next time sing, A,B,C,D,E,F,G” (and repeat) and she counted to 20!
I am in awe of how like her father she is becoming. It is really a good thing I love him so much because she reminds me so much of him. Her mannerisms, her thoughtful moments, her sweet affection and even her expressions. No surprise since she spends majority of her time with him instead of me.
I must confess that I am also tremendously enjoying my baby too. She shows me affection in her own way. She likes to be held at night and to sleep in my arms. Sure, it makes it tough for daddy to put her to bed when he is alone with her, but there is no stronger bond and no better feeling that having her fall almost instantly asleep when I carry her and rock her. She likes to hear me whisper to her and sometimes she just strokes me with her little, tiny fist. I feel especially blessed in those moments.
In the mornings, she is the happiest little baby I know. She just plays and rocks herself and flaps her little arms like wings. Her smiles and giggles are so contagious that she just subliminally compels me to pick her up so we can snuggle and play. Her demeanor is so different than her big sister. Her moods are so much milder and she is patient, calm and very stubborn!
I love them both 100% but differently. I can’t live without either of them and I am just so full of emotion when I see either of them hit a milestone or learn something new.
Between the one baby rolling and the other one peeing in the toilet, I feel like my heart can just burst with pride right now. | 2019-04-25T07:50:45 | https://smartignani.com/tag/babies/ |

The paper presents an account of the processes, outcomes and challenges associated with a follow-up study after the completion of a professional development programme in educational management for senior education officers from Sindh. Prior to induction to their jobs, the district education officers, principals of elementary colleges of education and higher secondary schools are not formally exposed to any new educational management and leadership practices. As a result, most of them remain unaware of the tasks and demands of their role, therefore, they tend to maintain a status quo position rather than engaging in change strategies for improving the quality of education in their organization. In order to improve their professional knowledge, skills and competence, The Aga Khan University, Institute for Educational Development organized a ten week professional development programme embedded in the paradigm of critical inquiry. The participants were encouraged to critically reflect on their existing beliefs, notions of educational management practices and explore alternatives for improvement. Lewin's model of professional learning (i.e. unfreezing, moving and refreezing) was employed as a vehicle for the professional learning of the participants. Following the completion of the programme in June 1998, a one day follow-up workshop was conducted where the participants were asked to focus on questions such as: Where are they in the change process? What has changed so far? Where are they headed? The initial findings suggest that the formal professional development programme on the whole and participants’ process of self-critical reflection in-action, on-the-job, helped them significantly in bringing about change in their perspectives, attitudes, management and leadership styles (i.e. participatory style). It was evident that most of the participants considered challenges as 'opportunities’ to foster the process of school improvement, which reflects their positive thinking.

How do I access and enable more icons to be in the system tray?
So I'm messing around with Natty a little, and I noticed that all the apps that would normally use the system tray (or "notification area"?) aren't displaying there. Is that a bug, or is that the way it's going to be? I heard something about Ubuntu getting rid of that feature entirely. Is there a way to add it back? I mean, I didn't really like it, either, especially when there were apps that used it unnecessarily, but I can't use CryptKeeper at all now, or easycrypt, and I don't know whether Dropbox has synced without opening Nautilus.
From Ubuntu 13.04 onwards you have to whitelist the applications if you want to allow access to the system tray.
Firstly install dconf-tools from the software center ( or by clicking here) Then Press Alt+F2 and enter dconf-editor and run it.
Now navigate to Desktop -> Unity -> Panel.
How do I set the panel whitelist back to the default?
Why aren't certain indicators showing in Unity?
gsettings set com.canonical.Unity.Panel systray-whitelist "['all']"
You can upgrade Dropbox, as in the latest builds it has an indicator on Ubuntu. For other applications, if the developers do not add indicator support for them, you can simply white-list them as Alaukik says, and also notify the developer that they need to fix the application.
gsettings set com.canonical.Unity.Panel systray-whitelist "$(gsettings get com.canonical.Unity.Panel systray-whitelist | sed -e "s/]$/, 'MYAPP']/")"
Instead of changing it to 'all' I suggest adding the name of the desired application to the list. With this you avoid all kinds of problems with panel caused by the "all" value.
For example drweb indicator was missing, so I tried to add the command which executes dr web antivirus into the whitelist. The value was like ['JavaEmbeddedFrame', 'Wine', 'Update-notifier']. I changed it to ['JavaEmbeddedFrame', 'Wine', 'drweb-cc', 'Update-notifier'], then I logged out and logged in, and the indicator was on the panel.
You can edit its value to simply ['all'], you can restore it by clicking "set to default" button also.
Or find out what icons you want to show, one by one and add them there.

The largest volume polyamides, nylon 6 and nylon 66, are aliphatic polyamides.
In the terminology of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission, "nylons" are fibers made from aliphatic and alicyclic polyamides, and aramids are fibers made from aromatic polyamides having at least 85% of the amide linkages directly attached to two aromatic rings. In everyday use, the terms nylon and aramid refer not only to the fiber but also to the polyamide itself. The high melting point of aramids, an asset in fiber applications, makes their fabrication by molding impractical. Most nylons can be used as plastics in addition to being used as fibers; some, such as nylon 12, are only used as plastics. Some polyamides are used as adhesives and coatings.
As to the outlook for the future growth of the various polyamides, Du Pont's Kevlar®, an aramid, is likely to be produced in large volume within the next few years, because of its increasing acceptance as a tire cord. Du Pont's Nomex® and Monsanto's Durette®, both aramids, are expected to enjoy a fast growth because of their flame retardant properties. | 2019-04-21T22:38:05 | https://ihsmarkit.com/products/chemical-technology-pep-polyamides-other-than-nylons-6-and1.html |

Four of the sixteen present teams really stood out above the rest. Champion Greece, finalist France, bronze medalist Spain and Lithuania (5th place). The Baltic team however got surprised by Italy in the quarter final. As far as pure talent is concerned, this tournament offered us a fair share of players of whom you can expect to consolidate a nice future on the European continent. However obvious NBA talent was very scarce.
Starting now with a summary of the top players.
Croatian point guard Karlo Vragovic had a good performance during this championship, including one really excellent game of 30 points, 7 rebounds and 2 steals. He has a good frame and nice strength, paired with just average athleticism. He has a pretty nice and quick shooting stroke with 3 point range, and is able to create his own shot off the dribble too. Nevertheless, hes not the most reliable shooter from long range. He shows good slashing ability beating his man off the dribble with ease, usually finishing strong around the rim, and drawing a fair share of fouls in the process.
Vragovic is also a crafty ball handler with both hands and decent passing skills. Even so, being a decent distributor on the perimeter, he doesnt have that superior court vision and awareness to throw around exciting passes or create for his teammates on a regular basis. He is a confident player whos certainly not afraid to take responsibility when it matters most.
On defense hes not a guy wholl get you many steals, but he brings very good intensity and is comfortable putting pressure on his opponent. He always tries to stay in front of his man, and has nice footspeed to avoid getting beat.
Vragovic is a player to follow and see how he develops against higher level competition. Hes probably not be an immediate draft prospect, but could have a very nice career in Europe.
Bojan Bogdanovic made a big impact on his teams performance here in Rhodes. Even if he had many moments that he was too invisible on the court, he still managed to become the tournaments third leading scorer. Hes a very versatile wing who can shoot, drive to the basket, handle the ball and play defense.
Bogdanovic shows a strong frame with long arms, but his average athleticism and quickness do limit his possibilities to defend especially on mostly (quicker) shooting guards at the elite level. He does give a good effort on the defensive end, though, and he should be able to guard most small forwards.
Offensively hes got a variety of ways to score. Usually a quite reliable outside shooter, he shot only 31% from 3-point distance over 9 games here in Greece, although he did compensate for that by netting over half his 2-point attempts.
He shows good shooting range, but was not very successful creating his own shot off the dribble. He slashes pretty well to the basket, making use of a good first step and balance to go by defenders and finish at the rim. Due to his aggressiveness going towards the basket, he draws plenty of fouls, getting to the free throw line 6.5 times per game. When he drives, he certainly doesnt go blind to score. His court sense and passing is actually more than decent and he often finds his teammates for an easier shot.
Although hes not the most agile player, Bojan is a very good ball handler and rebounder respectively. Left or right doesnt make a difference to dribble the ball up on more than one occasion.
Two question marks did emerge about him during this tournament. One was his high amount of turnovers (4 per game). The other was his mental toughness, at least to prove his value with the elite.
Spains Xavi Rabaseda started off the championship with a boom, scoring 36 points on 75% shooting in his teams opener. The following games were a lot less impressive, but he did manage several other solid games towards the end of the tournament.
Rabasea shows an athletic and strong body with good legs. He likes to run the fastbreak and does that with good speed. He has very good size for his position, standing 6-7, but does not have great lateral quickness, doing an average job staying in front of most players at his position defensively. He also tends to gamble excessively in the passing lanes. He does show a decent defensive effort and general intensity, for example trying to recover and block a layup after getting beat off the dribble.
On offense his shooting is very streaky. Although hes got good range, he doesnt possess a quick release. Creating his own shots facing the basket isnt quite his thing either, even if he has improved it during the past years. He seems to be a bit more comfortable with turn-around jumpers posting up against often smaller match-ups. He is a pretty decent slasher if he can go to his stronger right hand, and is able to finish with good percentages near the basket. This tournament registered 33% from 3 point distance and almost 60% for his 2-point field goals. He also averaged almost 6 fouls shots per game, a demonstration of his initiative and aggressiveness going towards the rim.
Rabaesas ball-handling and passing skills are average, as he lacks great decision-making skills It would be nice to see him step up his game more consistently, as at this point hes certainly not a guy who leads on the court and takes over a game scoring wise when needed. As a rebounder he doesnt do a bad job either, particularly when he doesnt leak out trying to ignite the fast break.
Rabaseda should be able to compete for minutes on a lower to mid-level ACB team sometime in the not too distant future.
The top scorer and go-to-guy for the Latvian team, Dairis Bertans has a skinny frame with quite long arms. Hes a pretty decent athlete with good quickness and footspeed, but mainly stands out as a scorer who runs the wings well to get free on the perimeter. Once he has the ball, hes able to either look for a shot (either spotting up or off the dribble) or slash to the basket. Hes also an OK passer who knows how to find his teammates when driving, and also in fastbreak situations.
Bertans outside shooting isnt as reliable as you might expect, which can definitely be caused by his poor shot selection. He connected on only 33.3% of his 3 point shots. Also his free throw percentage definitely needs improvement at 67%. Bertrans does have the ability and confidence to take over a game and respond also in decisive moments. As a ball handler hes solid too, dribbling up in many occasions and pushing the ball well on the break.
Defensively hes surely able to do his part and with good intensity and lateral footspeed, able to defend very close-by without fouling or getting surpassed. His awareness on help defense on the other hand is improvable.
With continued development Bertans should be able to forge himself a nice career in Europe, although maybe not at the very highest level.
Another French guard with a very important role on this finalist team was Thomas Heurtel. A quite solid ball handler with good passing skills, he was the one in charge of organizing things on offense and controlling the games rhythm. He has decent size for his position to go along with decent athleticism, quickness and overall speed. He also shows to be also a more than reasonable shooter, as he sports good range, nice lift and a pretty quick release, enabling him to create his own shot off the dribble too. Sometimes he tends to get carried away with his shot selection, in the many run and gun plays of his team. He can also slash to the basket, making use of a great cross-over to change his rhythm and surpass his defender. And last but not least hes also very active defensively, intense and aware on the weak side to help.
In a couple of years hell probably be a member of the strong senior French National team too. Hes got many tools to become a very good player on the European scene, but may not possess the long-term upside for the NBA.
Latvias starting point guard Janis Strelnieks also had an excellent tournament, contributing 14 points per game. Hes quite a solid point guard, not overly athletic, who distributes the ball effectively, feeds the post and usually does a good job managing between the open court and set offenses. His passing, dribbling and ball handling skills are just okay, nothing spectacular, but he certainly knows how to make the most of his skills, also being very confident with his shot. Although he has improved his long range shooting compared to last years Under 20 championship (from 20% to 36%), he remains very streaky in that aspect. Not a great slasher, he is able to drive at this level to dish or finish himself. His speed and quickness are average, but he gives a nice effort on both ends of the court.
Although he may not have the physical tools to play at the highest level of basketball, he can still have a very professional nice career.
Lithuanian lefty Zygimantas Janavicius remains a player to follow up on thanks to his very good quickness and speed. Showing a strong frame, Janavicius is an average leaper, but is a pretty skilled ball handler and passer. The main drawback here is the lack of decision making skills and court savvy Janavicius shows. He pushes the ball well on the break and is a very strong slasher, mostly going to his stronger left hand, but he lacks patience and too often drives blindly to the basket. Janavicius registered 3.8 turnovers per game during his 9 games here on the Greek island.
Defensively he is a very reliable piece, looking very intense in man to man settings and pressuring his opponent with good lateral footspeed. He came up with plenty of steals a in this championship (2.3). He also shows a great rebounding mentality, boxing out on the defensive end and collecting a strong 4.9 rebounds per game in turn.
The potential is clearly there, but a few years after we first looked at him, we must begin to ask whether he ever be able to make the most of it? Hell surely be given the opportunity with the very best Lithuanian teams to show how good he can become.
Pappas was the orchestrator, the man at the helm from the point guard position for Greece. An intelligent player with good court vision, good passing skills and a decent ball handler. He shows good size and okay strength and body control, which he knows how to use to his advantage in the post as well. On the other hand hes a fairly slow player who is really held back by his lack of athleticism. This and an often low intensity level make him a fairly poor defender, especially on the ball.
On offense he showed acceptable percentages during this tournament. For somebody whos traditionally not considered a great shooter with his relatively slow mechanics, the 40.6% he shot from the 3 point line are more than decent. Much of that is due to his very good shot selection, and also being part of a strong team where he has no need to force things on his own. Pappas is able to drive to the basket at times, using spin moves to get closer, and always keeping a clear view to assist to his teammates. Hes not a great finisher at the rim though due to his poor leaping ability. He generally moved the ball around pretty well and had a very good performance over the course of the championship.
Certainly not an NBA prospect due to his physical limitations, Pappas can surely forge himself a fine career in Europe, despite being an early bloomer.
Although he did a good job organizing his teams offense (he led all players with 6.1 assists per game), at this point you come to expect more than 4.6 points per game on very bad percentages (28% 2FGs, 20% 3FGs). Furthermore he only shot a total of 3 free throws over 8 games. Summarizing him briefly, hes still a decent athlete with good quickness and court awareness, a solid ball handler who can easily get by his match-up off the dribbles. Defensively he also shows good intensity.
Khvostov is another very talented Russian player whos missing that little something extra to take the next step in his development. A lot will depend on how much his shooting advances to make an important quality jump at the senior level. Possibilities for him to work on a bright future in Europe, but over the years he has lost his condition as NBA prospect.
This 1990-born Italian was a nice surprise as far as skill level is concerned. Sandri is quite quick with long arms, a skinny frame and good agility. He shows a very nice and balanced shooting stroke with good range and a quick release, and is able to create his own shot off dribble as well. In addition, his ball-handling and passing skills are pretty decent. However he lacks maturity and assertiveness in his performance to standout more and take advantage of his physical tools. On defense hes active enough with adequate lateral footspeed to stay in front of his opponent. Sandri is someone to follow to see how he develops in the Italian league. | 2019-04-24T09:59:47 | http://content.draftexpress.com/article/2009-U-20-European-Championship-Review-Guards-3314/ |
Lafarge Cement Plc says increasing local and regional construction activity in the Democratic Republic of Congo is likely to improve the company’s performance after lower cement volumes slowed its profits by 23% last year. Company Secretary Harriet Kapekel said there was moderate growth in domestic demand, with a decline in the first six months which reversed in the second half of the year.
Kapekele said regional demand continued to be strong and the Democratic Republic of Congo remained the dominant market but that there was also a significant increase in Burundi.
She said the fluctuation of Malawi’s currency against other major currencies and its weakening mid-year resulted in net foreign exchange losses.
However, Kapekele said the relative stability of the kwacha’s performance during the last quarter enabled some of the costs to be reversed. | 2019-04-25T14:11:48 | https://www.cemnet.com/News/story/129431/dr-congo-lafarge-forecasts-increased-sales.html |
Bernd Leno (GK) - The summer signing from Bayer Leverkusen has been an upgrade on the Petr Cech of recent years, impressing with his shot-stopping and distribution.
Ainsley Maitland-Niles (RWB) - A midfielder by trade, the Arsenal youth product has regularly had to fill in at fullback, and has featured heavily since Hector Bellerin's injury. Composed on the ball, the England Under-21 international has proven to be a solid tackler also.
Shkodran Mustafi (CB) - A World Cup winning defender, Mustafi has nonetheless been a disappointment since his arrival from Valencia in 2016. Overly aggressive and error-prone, the former Everton man gets in only because of injuries to Koscielny and Holding.
Sokratis (CB) - An experienced and tough centre half, Arsenal fans have warmed to the 2018 summer signing from Borussia Dortmund.
Aaron Ramsey (CM) - Soon to be a Juventus player, Ramsey was featuring only from the bench for much of this season. However, he's won the faith of Emery in recent months and remains as productive as ever, contributing towards 10 goals in 13 league starts from midfield.
Mesut Ozil (AM) - A divisive figure, Ozil has not particularly been at his best this season, assisting only twice in 16 league starts. Nevertheless, the German is more capable than Alex Iwobi or Henrikh Mhkitaryan at making consistently clever passes, and unlocking a stubborn defence.
Alexandre Lacazette (ST) - Not quite as prolific as his strike partner, Lacazette has nonetheless proven to be a reliable source of goals, and is capable of clever passes and link up play.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (ST) - Although not as well-rounded a footballer as Lacazette, Aubamenyang is a pure goal machine - since his arrival from Borussia Dortmund in January 2018, he's bagged 27 league goals in just 37 starts. | 2019-04-20T08:33:33 | http://www.arsenal-world.co.uk/news/tmnw/everton_vs_arsenal_unai_emerys_best_available_gunners_lineup_929316/index.shtml |

Crafting a custom-made juice dish is a fun way to exercise that creativity muscle in a really out-of-the box method. Some people bake, some people compose, and some individuals blend it up with e-juice. At VaporFi, their online vape juice home builder makes it extremely easy to be a specialist mixologist. Instead of handling the messy blending procedure in your home or trying to find Do It Yourself vape juice products and taste extracts to blend at home, VaporFi enables you to produce your own e-liquid with just a few easy clicks.
First, you’ll select if you desire one, 2, or 3 tastes in your customized mix. Then, you can check out the taste families, selecting from fruity, dessert, minty, or standard tobacco tastes. Once you’ve selected your tastes, you’ll also have the capability to calibrate your PG/VG ratio and the nicotine level in your juice. Which’s it– it’s truly that simple. They’ll send your 30ml or 60ml custom-made mix, and you’ll be on your way to enjoying your brand-new development– and did I point out that shipping is totally free, too?
Get imaginative with your taste combinations. Any flavor you can think of probably exists as a vape juice, so the possibilities are limitless. If you’re a dessert aficionado, think about the flavors that are normally found in your preferred sweet treat. Maybe you’ll combine vanilla, banana, and chocolate for an ice cream sundae-inspired mix, or our apple juice with a “scoop” of ice cream for apple pie a la mode. Or, for something a little more standard, pair classic tobacco flavor with fresh mint. Mix up the flavors much like you would in the kitchen area, and you’re likely to create something delicious.
Attempt a few, totally various, combinations. Blend your blends and try a minimum of one juice that’s absolutely out of the box. If you’re normally a traditionalist that sticks to simple tastes, do not be afraid to include something completely different, like a fruity blend that’s influenced by a summer mixed drink. Don’t restrict yourself to the “same old” tastes, since this is your chance to actually change it up.
Get concepts from the vaping community. One of the best parts of vaping is the big neighborhood of vapers that is all too delighted to share pointers and ideas. If you’re finding yourself stuck with a psychological flavor block, do a little digging in some vaping online forums and see what other people have actually tried and enjoyed. Who understands, you may come across a crazy flavor mix that becomes you next preferred.
There are a few vaping companies that provide customized blends, however theirs is the best Do It Yourself e-juice package since you’ll be dealing with high-grade ingredients and tastes. Plus, with their massive choice of tastes, there are about 30,000 different combinations you can develop– that’s quite difficult to beat. Ideally, you’re feeling influenced, and prepared to create your own Do It Yourself vape juice mix. Keep in mind: be imaginative, have fun, and don’t hesitate to attempt something out of the box. You never understand what your next flavor jackpot may be!
Make VaporFi your first and last stop for all your vaping requires, whether you’re trying to find a new juice to contribute to your collection, or you’re preparing to upgrade your gadget. They have the best selection of brand names and products at incomparable prices, and their support group is constantly here to address any concerns you might have. | 2019-04-21T00:48:47 | https://www.vlad-galkin.com/2017/03/04/diy-vape-juice-nicotine/ |
Munich - FC Bayern München's is out of the club's DFB Cup quarter-final clash with Bayer 04 Leverkusen on Wednesday, as is fellow midfielder .
Schweinsteiger's injury is not thought to be serious but the 30-year-old, who was substituted off in the 58th minute of Der Klassiker, was unable to train on Monday and is now a confirmed absentee.
"He definitely won't be available," said head coach Pep Guardiola in Tuesday's press conference, before going on to lament his growing injury list at a critical stage of the season.
"You hope that you have your best team available in April and May, but that's not the case, so you just have to adapt," said the 44-year-old, who is also without David Alaba (knee) and Arjen Robben (abdominal injury).
Frenchman Ribery, who turned 32 on Tuesday, has not played competitively since being withdrawn in the 59th minute of Bayern's 7-0 UEFA Champions League Round of 16 victory over FC Shakhtar Donetsk on 11 March and told Sport1 on Monday that he was still not fit enough to return to first-team action.
There was further bad news for back-up goalkeeper Tom Starke, who faces a month on the sidelines after damaging ankle ligaments in training on Sunday. David Alaba also remains out, but the Bundesliga leaders do at least have plenty of cover in central midfield now that Philipp Lahm and Thiago are available again following lengthy absences of their own. Germany defender Holger Badstuber is also back in training after picking up a knock on international duty. | 2019-04-21T18:47:30 | https://www.bundesliga.com/en/news/Bundesliga/0000317213.jsp |

The Buzz: Palomar clearing land off Hilltop Drive. Here's why.
The Buzz: A piece of land off Hilltop Drive is getting cleared. Here's why.
Dirt, and lots of it, has been moving on a piece of hillside property off Mission De Oro Drive across from the Shasta Creek Apartments east of Interstate 5.
The work is visible from off north Hilltop Drive.
Palomar Builders is grading land to build attached homes, much like its Park Pointe neighborhood just north of this site.
But this project has a twist.
Jeb Allen, Palomar’s co-owner, told me about 10 of the 46 units will have studio apartments where the garage would go. The apartments will have a bathroom and kitchen.
Allen had tried to sell the property. But it's zoned multi-family, so Allen said nobody would buy it because the cost to build apartments didn't pencil out.
So, he came up with the studio apartment idea, which satisfies the requirement to build multi-family housing.
“When I start something, I want to finish it, and to me this finishes Highland Park,” Allen said.
Highland Park is the single-family subdivision next to Park Pointe that Palomar Builders started in 2009. Park Pointe is an extension of Highland Park.
Allen said floorplans for his new development will range from 1,693 square feet to 2,021 square feet. The smallest floor plan will feature the 10 studio apartments.
But while Allen is satisfying the multi-family zoning requirement, the studio space doesn’t have to be an apartment.
The owner could turn it into say a man cave or she shack.
Allen hopes to start construction in the spring.
Lily Toy, the city’s interim planning manager, said accessory units to homes are built throughout the city.
“But as far building these all out as far as a planned development, yes this is probably a first,” Toy said.
If you’ve ever had an idea on how to make Redding a more desirable place to live and believe there are ways to attract more visitors to the area, the Redding City Identity Project wants to hear from you.
The project has posted a survey (https://bit.ly/2yKDi7n) of 16 questions that it will use to come up with 20 ideas by 2020.
What challenges does Redding face?
What are the three best assets of the city?
What would you do within the next 10 years to affect positive change in Redding?
You have until Nov. 20 to take the survey and the results will be revealed Jan. 10 at the Cascade Theatre. The evening also will feature John O’Leary, who was badly burned when he was 9 years old and is now an inspirational speaker and author of the book, “On Fire.” O’Leary is the father of four and lives in St. Louis.
The chamber announced its $500,000 city pride plan last spring. It has partnered with other businesses and organizations to help fund the project, including the McConnell Foundation, Sierra Pacific Industries Foundation, Dignity Health, Black Bear Diner, Commerce Home Mortgage, Compass and Josh Barker of ReMax Town & Country.
Questions on the survey were based in part from meetings with artists, web designers, the startup business community, and city and Shasta County leaders.
“This is not going to be the chamber of commerce version of the identity of Redding. This is coming from the people of the community, so we want it to be a far and wide reach,” Mangas said.
Ideas to improve Redding should focus on messaging, experiences and aesthetics.
“Maybe one idea is a façade improvement in Redding and maybe funding from the identity project gets leveraged with other dollars to make it happen,” Mangas said.
There were 500 responses about a day after the survey first went up.
“It’s really fun to see how people have engaged for us,” Mangas said.
Three months after its transmitter atop Shasta Bally was destroyed by the Carr Fire, 88.9 FM KFPR in Redding is still off the air.
And North State Public Radio management does not know when the transmitter will be replaced so 88.9 can be back on the air.
Meanwhile, North State Public Radio restored full power to its 91.7 KCHO station in Chico. The station once again can be heard between Yuba City and Redding, though reception in Redding can be spotty depending on where you’re at.
KCHO had been broadcasting at reduced strength on a backup transmitter since April, when the transmitter on Cohasset overheated and failed due to a faulty air conditioning unit. | 2019-04-24T23:01:24 | https://www.redding.com/story/money/columnists/david-benda/2018/11/02/buzz-palomar-clearing-land-off-hilltop-drive-heres-why/1851429002/ |
These articles discover the sphere of sports activities medicine. I bear in mind when I was a baby and I played soccer with my friends. But the first “moment of fact” is often away from everybody’s attention, as a result of what determines the “offside place” is the relative place of each player at the moment the ball is struck.
Persistence is essential so that aspiring gamers can purchase the ability they wish to learn. Keep it up with these soccer drills until the time all the gamers have a dangle of reacting properly and sustaining their positions. Players of all ages, and skills, reply much better to new, relevant, however all the time pleasurable, routines and workout routines.
Buzzle’s articles round up famous quotes about sports activities and by sportspeople. While it isn’t an offense to be in an offside position, a participant who by no means touches the ball might nonetheless have an effect on play in such a manner as to be penalized for being offside.
Immediately, there have been football leagues for girls all over the world just like the W-League, Superliga Femenina in Spain, Women’s Nationwide Soccer League in Australia, Toppserien in Norway, Ladies’s Bundesliga in Germany and Austria.
In the area of soccer teaching and significantly soccer drills; fixed, repetitive apply is a prerequisite for improved particular person and group performance. It’s the World’s Recreation that’s performed by extra folks than some other sport and is universally recognized as the preferred game in sports activities historical past. This may help your gamers address the extra pressure positioned on them in a final. Whereas the sport is played on the identical subject, with the identical ball, and the same number of gamers, junior soccer players attach a higher significance to finals.
In an advert overdosed society, it takes way more to garner viewer attention and in the end shopper loyalty than the As a result of I said so,†method so distinguished in American sports—particularly soccer. Once I coach a team in opposition to a stronger club, I try to identify the important thing players on the opposition workforce.
Although it could be unattainable to precisely state when and the place the game of soccer originated, historical past has shown us glimpses of a sport similar to our present day version being played for over 3000 years. As with soccer, solely the goalie can handle the ball. The game guidelines doesn’t specify any positions of the players else than the goalkeeper. It makes full sense to simply kick the ball however even better is the soccer apply where the players spin the ball ahead to a teammate, move concerning the ball to the outer field, and then transfer alongside the sector towards the opponent’s aim.
Make it a degree to place your gamers in an acceptable formation and run the formation as you’d do in every other drill. The groups could make their own methods by positioning the remaining 10 gamers at any level of the ground boundaries. Thankfully, Liberia is dwelling to George Manneh Oppong Ousman Weah, one of the World`s most well-known and charismatic gamers. | 2019-04-26T09:37:56 | https://www.majortayloraustin.org/hip-pain.html |

Art-house cinema broke into the next dimension at the Berlin film festival (10th-20th February) Sunday with hotly awaited 3D premieres from European veterans seeking to reclaim the format from Hollywood blockbusters. Wenders’s “Pina,” which showcases the work of the late German choreographer Pina Bausch, had been years in the planning. The picture takes the choreography from the rehearsal stage to the city’s roughly beautiful industrial spaces. Intercut are interviews with the performers, who were still mourning Bausch’s loss, adding a deep emotional undercurrent to the film.
Herzog’s documentary “Cave of Forgotten Dreams” shines a light on what are believed to be the world’s oldest cave paintings, in southern France (the Chauvet Pont d’Arc cave in the Ardeche valley). A specially built hand-held camera captured the paintings in relief, revealing how the ancient artists used the grotto’s own contours to add nuance to their work.
The Berlin film festival runs until February 20. | 2019-04-22T20:31:16 | https://media-via.net/2011/02/17/art-film-at-berlinale/ |

Contact a Family are running a campaign this Christmas to ask the Prime Minister to rethink cuts to disabled children’s benefits, you can access the campaign via the CaF website or direct via EDCM.
Contact a Family’s “Strengthening Children’s Centre” project (funded through the National Lottery by the Big Lottery fund) are offering parents with disabled children access to themed workshops in children centres on a range of topics including: benefits; sleep; managing behaviours and stress and coping sessions. These sessions are being offered to help develop understanding and knowledge of the impact that caring for a disabled child can have on the whole family. For the North West of England and East Midlands, please email Karen, for the South West and South East of England, please email Lisa, for London, please email Julie, and for all other areas please ring the Helpline on 0808 808 3555.
Over 12% of Family Information Services in England are failing to meet their statutory obligations as outline in the Childcare Act 2006.
An estimated 88% of local authorities have cut their budget for family information, and 62% have cut staffing.
A growing number of local authorities are merging their FIS into call centres. Generic council call centres do not usually have the expertise to deal with complex calls and many limit the time that an operator can speak to a caller.
Where FIS are properly supported they often provide an excellent service. By investing in high quality childcare brokerage now we can not only ensure families can access the services they need but prevent poverty child poverty in the future.
Daycare Trust is calling for local authorities to ensure they meet their legal duties outlined in the Childcare Act 2006 by resourcing Family Information Services properly, and for Ofsted to develop a more detailed schedule for inspecting Family Information Services when visiting local authorities in England.
New research from Contact a Family shows that social, emotional and financial isolation is causing almost three quarters (72%) of families with disabled children to experience poor mental health such as anxiety, depression or breakdown. As a result, Contact a Family is calling on local authorities to provide sufficient early intervention services. In addition the charity is urging national government not to go back on its promise to protect vulnerable families and ensure planned welfare reform changes don’t increase the isolation currently being experienced by the UK’s Forgotten Families.

Photovoltaic method is a process in which photovoltaic cells converts the sun rays in to direct current then this current will be stored in huge solar batteries for later use. This method would not emit any harmful gasses like traditional electricity production methods. This method is being used for commercial and residential purposes to fulfill the electricity needs. Thermal power generation method uses the heat of sun rays and convert this heat into electricity and fulfill the electricity requirements of businesses. Thermal power generation method is highly recommended for hot regions like middle Eastern countries and some Asian countries. Thermal power generation is best for industrial model and photovoltaic method is suitable for residential purposes. Solar power generation is a best way to fulfill the requirements of the industrial and residential areas. It does not emit any harmful gases.
Solar panels may reduce the electricity bills and it’s a major relief for an ordinary house hold. People would never face any kind of electricity break down and load shedding that will help them to do their jobs easily by taking full rest in comfortable environment. Solar panel does not emit any harmful gas that effects the nature or environment. Solar energy is generated from the renewable resources so, it would reduce the risk of natural resources conservation. Conservation of natural resources has become a major challenge for the world. World is moving from the coal power generation to solar power generation to fulfill their commitment with environment. | 2019-04-23T20:23:09 | http://auroratownshipfd.org/why-people-prefer-solar-power-generation-methods/ |
Me and Yqt1001 are starting the MOOse front. Black 2x2 flag. Our goal is to eliminate the red front from the map. We propose a truce with the blue front while the red front is being attacked. TheMooCows will offer his services if blue gets attacked by red and yqt1001 might help as well in exchange for this truce. We will start conquering zone 32 and go there from there. This battle may commence on Friday, 20 June. All battles will be 2v2 in MOOse Front.
I can't on Friday 20 sorry. I can on Saturday or Sunday if you can?
Why should all battles be 2v2? The more people, the more fun. I really think you should open the battles to more people... Demanding all battles to be 2v2 really goes against the 'spirit' of the battleground imo.
I disagree that it would be more fun. With two people you can be coordinated and precise, add more people and it gets more complicated. Take for example the most recent battle where the teams were so confusing that smj and soccer killed each other. We might have some 3v3's with atomic and quontex occasionally, but atomic doesn't want to be in every battle and quontex has scheduling/ping problems. Also I have noticed my ping in particular exponentially increases when more people are on, up to the point where last battle I had 800 ms ping. So both me and yqt agree that 2v2's would be most beneficial. It does not say in any of the rules that we cannot restrict to only 2v2, so either change the rules or accept it.
Sat or Sun works fine I think. I will post in the battle planning when it comes closer to that date.

It was Soccer's first battle and Smj had pretty much forgotten the objectives etc. too, plus Smj swapped team and Soccer quit the game a bit before the battle started, so this confusion seems understandable to me. I haven't experienced one other battle where people haven't been aware who was on their teams, not the 3v3 ones either, and with a little briefing before the battle begins, this should easily be avoidable, so I don't think that's a very convincing argument.

Is that a challenge lol? Be careful with such rhetoric.
All battles will be 2v2 in MOOse Front.
Technically Red Front could for the sake of argument with the current rules dictate it to be 1v1, because every team has to accept every member. But 1v1 battles would simply be exponentially more boring than 2v2, so I'll be kind enough to avoid that. Pretty much all other battles we've been trying to get as many people as possible to join and that goes in line with the intention of the BG being a place for everyone and for casuals, so I hadn't really imagined this situation, so maybe changing the rules would be worth considering. Anyway, I can see the ping argument, hopefully those could be lowered by upgrading the server. | 2019-04-22T18:43:53 | http://blacraft.createaforum.com/the-battleground/moose-front/ |

The team understands what it is supposed to accomplish and has the resources needed to be successful.
Conflict between team members is a pervasive issue.
Team members feel that good work is not rewarded and they are not sure what they are responsible for.
Team members balance the need for autonomy with mutual dependance.
Working relationships are poor and there is a lack of commitment for the vision.
We spend time together as a team outside of work.
46 to 60 - You're a solid team working well together.
31 - 45 - Your effectiveness as a team is patchy. You're good at some things but need improvement in other areas.
0 - 30 - This is something to be concerned about. The good news is you've got lots of room for improvement.
I believe this survey needs to be revised, it favors many of the things that make a team unsuccessful. It does not differentiate between high scores of great qualities or high scores of poor characteristics. | 2019-04-24T16:06:43 | http://www.relevantchildrensministry.com/2013/09/how-good-is-your-ministrys-team-work.html |
This is a drop from Coren Direbrew, the boss in Blackrock Depths, during the Brewfest world event.
The 2009 Brewfest version of Sundial of the Exiled.
Drops from Coren Direbrew, in the Grim Guzzler inside BRD.
Currently DOES stack with Abyssal Rune. Makes for some pretty painful crits.
No flavour text for spellcasters this year too?
This trinket will sometimes proc this spell.
It has the same benefits as Sundial of the Exiled.
Did test it today ..
To calculate equivalent of proc in spellpower will modify formula copied from Sundial of the Exiled.
Just go this trinket yesterday. OMG it rocks! 4 ticks into combustion with no crits yet this thing procs. As soon as I saw it proc I popped Cannoneer's Fuselighter and start casting fireball. 9K! Cast another fireball. 9K! I'm 1/4 of the way through the cast of the 3rd fireball when hot streak also pops! I send in the 3rd fireball with a pyroblast 1/2 second behind it.... 10K! ... 12K!
I am using this on my Holy Pally. I Judge every 8 seconds, so I am hoping that it procs often....not sure, anyone care to share thoughts?
You should reroll arcane blast spam or frostfire bolt spam.
Question for all you number crunchers: I have Abyssal Rune, Mithril Pocketwatch, and Darkmoon Card: Death. What is the best pair for dps i.e. PvE. Is there an advantage to another pairing in PvP?
The tooltip states that it procs from harmful spells, but it's been proccing when I use Power Word: Shield in my Shadow spec. Most likely a bug, but I found it interesting (and useful!).
It's strange because Abyssal Rune, which has identical stats except haste <> crit, can proc at the same time as Sundial of the Exiled!
Perfect combo btw, in a serious bossfight both trinkets can give you +1180 SP more than once (you will proc 590SP 20% of the casts, and 1180SP 4% of the casts) So if your fight takes 4 minutes, you'll have an average of 19 procs, some of them will proc at the same time. That grants 11210SP over 240sec, so 46,7SP overall.
Curiously, this procs from Sacred Shield.
Equip: Your harmful spells have a chance to increase your spell power by 175 for 10 sec. | 2019-04-22T08:25:15 | https://www.wowhead.com/item=49076/mithril-pocketwatch |
On Tuesday 20 March, the Lions Club of Sanctuary Cove Hope Island held the 2nd Annual Raewyn Andersen Memorial Golf Day at the Palms Golf Course, Sanctuary Cove. Registration for the event was from 11.00am with a shotgun tee off at 12.00 midday with Golfers playing a 4 Ball Ambrose Competition. Once golf was done and dusted, everyone enjoyed dinner at the Sanctuary Cove Rec Club where prizes were awarded, and raffles and auctions contributed to the fundraising effort.
Raewyn Andersen was a charter member of the Lions Club of Sanctuary Cove, avid golfer and a character of the Cove. Everyone knew Raewyn. She was also a great supporter of Lions Medical Research Foundation and in 2012, at the age of 67 was an entrant in the Qld and Northern NSW Lions Medical Research Personality Quest raising thousands of dollars for medical research.
Sadly, Raewyn passed away two years ago after a relatively short time from an aggressive cancer. In her memory, her club agreed to hold an annual charity golf day with 50% of the proceeds going to her favourite charity, Lions Medical Research Foundation, and the other half to a recognized charity of their choice.
In 2017 the event was a great success raising $7,500 which was donated to a local children’s charity and Lions Medical Research Foundation. In 2018, the event attracted great support from the local community and the Club was able to raise almost double last year’s amount – again, half will go to Lions Medical Research Foundation.
Sincerest thanks to the Lions Club of Sanctuary Cove Hope Island. Their commitment and dedication to honouring a charter member of their Club while fundraising for worthy causes, is exceptional.

Gov. Rick Scott is set to release his budget today and the only thing that is clear is that the embattled Governor cares more about aiding his dismal poll numbers than actually solving the state’s problems.
Twenty-two months out from re-election, with every reinvention failing, Scott is clearly flailing – desperately attempting to reverse course on his toxic Tea Party agenda. But Scott’s about-face on issue after issue is fooling no one and simply underscoring his central problem: he can’t be trusted. No wonder polling shows that Scott’s "chances for re-election are in jeopardy." | 2019-04-25T12:50:58 | https://www.floridadems.org/news/rick-scott-s-about-face |

The Bible never depicts this world as being fair but it does show us a way through the trouble.
A very Jewish tale is told in Mark 6: 17 – 29. In summary, Herod divorces his first wife to marry Herodias. John the Baptists suggests that this is not a good idea. His advice angers Herodias who decides he needs to die.
Herod liked John the Baptist. He liked to listen to him even though he didn’t understand him. He didn’t understand him because he refused to follow the heart of the message–to repent. He refused to turn from being his own Lord to the humility and faith which allows what is good and holy to take hold of him. So, when Herodias became angry, in order to keep the peace in his home, Herod had John the Baptist arrested.
On the day of Herod Antipas’ birthday, Herodias gets her revenge. It begins when her daughter dances for King Herord and all the guests. Artists have captured this dance on many canvases. This one, from Reni who lived in late 1500s, portrays the daughter as aloof, dancing, holding the hair of John’s head as it is presented to her.
It is a picture of a great wrong.
Evil manipulates the one with the crown, of one who refused to learn the language of humility, or faith, or grace. Take heed.
The story suggests evil is born of a grudge and spread by the innocent.
A simple birthday party, a celebration of life, corrupted.
On the one hand, I want to condemn Herod Antipas. Herod–the man who is the center of his own dance. He makes himself an easy target.
On the other hand, how many times have we held in higher regard something other than what is right and holy? Even Peter denies Jesus when push comes to shove.
It is hard to hold on to what is right and holy.
I have opportunity to speak to couples now and then. Everyone fights. There should be a book about that for couples similar to the one for mothers and their little children called “Everyone Poops.” Everyone fights. This is true about all our relationships—friends and coworkers alike. What often happens is we feel slighted in some way. The other doesn’t understand us. Lists of wrongs are kept. Anger grows. We’ve tried everything, we say, as the one who we once loved and respected becomes the enemy to our peace.
The best general reminder scripture gives about all of our relationships is that our first priority is not the happiness of the other person. Herod tried to make his wife and niece happy and it led to the death of the holy one.
Our first priority is to do right by God, to hold on to what is right and holy in ourselves and in the other.
As Christians, we do this by looking to see Jesus.
In this scene from the rock musical Jesus Christ Superstar, Jesus has been brought to Herod Antipas having been arrested for treason.
It takes time to find Herod among the dancers, underneath the many bulbs that light up the “H.” But it is not hard to see Jesus there in white lit robe in the foreground. In the midst of all that is wrong, there is Jesus, waiting.
When we look to see Jesus at work in us and in the other person, we will often find him there, kneeling before the Herodian dance, the ego’s masquerade, waiting for us to repent.
Look for him. Call for him to stand up. Unbind him.
He is there in the one who is hurting herself beyond recognition. He is there in the boss whose heavy hand you have felt. He is there in the “other” and he is there in you.
Martin Luther King Jr. fought for equality, not with a violent revolution, but with a Christian witness calling the enemy to take hold of what was holy and good in them.
Look for Jesus. You may not ever be offered half of the King’s kingdom but you will see your way through to what is good and holy. That is enough to change your world! | 2019-04-21T02:28:16 | https://thesixthday.org/2012/07/16/change-your-world/ |
Your child is going to learn a lot at school. They’ll give him or her the basics and then some more in all the major subjects that they need to know about; they’ll make friends; they’ll figure out his or her passions. Executed properly, it’ll provide the framework for future success. However, it is, of course, not just the role of the educational system to nurture your child. It happens at home and the wider world too. In any case, your children aren’t always in class — during the summer, and other periods throughout the year, they’ll be out of school. So how can you ensure that these free periods are put to the best use, and contribute to your child’s growth and development? Let’s take a look at a few ways below.
There’s nothing that expands the mind quite like a trip to someplace new. It’s an underrated act, visiting a new territory. Without it, your child will only have an understanding of their community, and their own way of living. The world is much bigger than in your hometown. You know it well and your child should know it too. When summer rolls around, look into taking a trip that allows your son or daughter to see a different side of life. It could be into nature, or to a big city, or anywhere, so long as it’s different.
But of course, you’re not going to spend the entire summer vacation on the road — not unless you’re independently wealthy. Most of your fun will have to take place within easy reaching distance of your home. But no matter where you live, there’ll be plenty of places that provide an educational day out, under the guise of fun. You’ll get to spend time with the kids, they’ll learn something, and they’ll have fun too. It’s an arrangement that benefits everyone.
Try as you might, you won’t be able to provide your children with all of the opportunities in the world while they’re at home. It’s just not practical. But there is a place where they can try new activities, meet new friends, broaden their mind, and learn a thing or two — summer camp. Take a look at Americas Finest Summer Camps, and give your child the ultimate summer experience. Also, it will give you a break away from having to come up with new and exciting activities all summer long.
We’re all hoping that our children will spend most of their time in the great outdoors, even if they do, you’ll want to have some fun days inside of the home, too. In any case, if you experience mostly blue skies every day of your child’s school break, usually there will be a few days in which it will rain. When it does, look at spending some quality time together and have some all-out fun! If you’re feeling energetic, try writing and performing a play or a show together. For a more relaxed day, pull out those classic family board games and spend the day competing in a family-friendly competition. | 2019-04-25T02:56:17 | https://successfulblackparenting.com/making-the-most-of-your-childs-time-off-school/ |
My review of Belterra, the first book can be found here. I have been eagerly awaiting this sequel!! I am happy to say I loved it as much as I did the first! This can be read as a stand alone--but I highly suggest you read both.
There are problems in Belterra--big ones! The Batrachs have decided to try and take their country back. A forcefield has held them captive in caves for many years. But now they have someone who can help them--who is it?
This one may have your heart beating wildly as the Belterran's attempt first to fight the Batrachs--then try to make peace with them. There are important people that are kidnapped--can they be saved?
I really think you will enjoy this one--and it does segue into the Time after Time theme towards the end and sets you up for another one of the books! Great series--I love them!!
Dark Return is the sequel to Belterra, Time After Time, and takes place about ten years afterwards. When Belterra was populated long ago by a select group of humans sent here by the ancients in the hope of saving the human race, the indigenous race of bat-like creatures called the Batrach were forced into the ocean and underground sea caves by a giant force field. The force field has now weakened. The Batrach have emerged from their watery prison and they want their planet back.
This does sound really good. I'd like to read the original, and then this sequel! Wow! | 2019-04-26T06:18:47 | http://www.mikishope.com/2019/02/book-review-dark-return-belterra-book-2.html |
Resident Evil 2 remake is an upcoming survival horror game developed and published by Capcom. As a fan of the Resident Evil franchise, I was totally hyped for this game. After rushing through the demo, since it only allows players to play it for 30 minutes (Tip:Pausing the game stops the timer), I find the game to be thrilling and gory. There are a few nit picks, but it didn’t ruin my overall experience with this one shot demo.
Along with the thrills, this game can get real gory (No surprise) I mean, look at the screen shots. Seeing a man get mauled in half by zombies or examining a zombie up close caused me to cringe a bit. The gore fits into the game play too, similar to Dead Space (Love this Franchise as well, DAMN YOU EA!) , I was able to disable a zombie by shooting at their limbs. For example, I accidentally shot a zombies arm as I was running away from it (Rushing the demo). The next time I saw the same zombie, its arm was dangling. (Not sure if it affects how it attack).
A big step up from “Resident Evil 6” (Didn’t play Resident Evil 7, yet.) and a good fill in for that “Dead Space” space in my heart. Totally looking forward to this game’s release and Resident Evil fans should be too. | 2019-04-23T18:14:07 | https://planethopper.tv/resident-evil-2-remakeone-shot-demo-its-cool/ |

COMMON PITFALLS IN FINISHING YOUR BASEMENT - Cypress Construction, Inc.
Here are some of our helpful tips for avoiding some common pitfalls that many homeowners face during the process of finishing a basement.
Creating a perfectly stylish and inviting space in your basement is an appealing idea and a great way to make the most of your home’s square footage. With a finished basement, you can add a great place for entertaining, expand your living space, or even add another bedroom. But as with beginning any renovation, it’s important to have a plan to avoid missteps during construction. You may face several challenges in the process of finishing your basement, which can make the renovation a daunting task. Here are some of our helpful tips for avoiding some common pitfalls that many homeowners face during the process of finishing a basement.
When it comes to finishing your basement, you want to be sure that the basement is safe from flooding and water damage. Jumping straight into a basement finishing project without getting a better idea of your basement’s vulnerability to leaks is an easily avoidable mistake. Be sure to inspect your basement windows, corners, and doorways for moisture and leaks. When you’re aware of the areas of your basement that are vulnerable to potential water damage and flooding, you can correct leaks and cracks before getting started on remodeling your basement.
You’ll also want to make sure your basement is properly insulated before starting your project. If your basement is not properly insulated, you won’t be able to enjoy your new living space comfortably. Good foam insulation can keep your finished basement a comfortable temperature all year round, and it can also help protect your basement in case of leaks. Foam insulation will be able to stand up better to moisture than the alternatives. Even if you thoroughly inspect your basement and are sure to fix any cracks or leaks in the structure, it’s important to be sure that you’re protected in case of any leaks or flooding.
Finally, you don’t want to make the mistake of using sub-par materials to finish your basement. Be sure to use durable flooring and wall materials in order to make sure your basement is comfortable and can stand up to the drafts and leaks that can crop up in many basements. Don’t forget to use strong insulation under the floors as well as behind the walls. This will help you keep your basement dry and comfortable.

BKW Partners (the agency formerly known as Rassak) has been based in San Francisco for a decade, working worldwide and across sectors. Addressing communications issues in smart, creative, proactive ways can often bring big, meaningful change to an organization. BKW loves to partner with leaders and help make this happen. Read more in our Partner Spotlight with co-founders Barak Kassar and Kristin Wiederholt.
How is BKW Partners different from other marketing communications services?
We’re led by a former venture-backed CEO and a former public radio journalist. So we get the perspective of company leaders. We get their timelines. We get their pressures. We get the need to have a proactive partner. And proactivity is a core value for the entire BKW team. And we get audiences—what makes people pay attention and care about a brand. We’re good at reading between the lines and helping to interpret the vision of company leaders in a way that will resonate with their audiences.
How does BKW Partners work with other local businesses and organizations?
We’re connectors. When we were starting out people helped us. One person said something that really resonated: “Don’t pay me back directly. It’s a round world. Help someone else out in the future.” We take that seriously. We do our best to connect people and businesses — whether clients or not — to help people grow and learn and connect themselves.
Why was it important to base BKW Partners in the San Francisco Bay Area?
The Bay Area is our home and community. We have clients all over the U.S. and travel globally for our work. The artistic, social, and entrepreneurial spirit of the Bay Area is key to who we are and how we conduct our business.
How has being a member of the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce helped BKW Partners?
The SF Chamber is a tremendous connecting platform. We’ve met fantastic people through the Chamber and look forward to continuing to do so. BKW is proud to be a member alongside the diverse and robust businesses and organizations of San Francisco. | 2019-04-18T10:49:08 | https://sfchamber.com/partner-spotlight-bkw-partners/ |
There are 260 known genetic diseases in the UAE. That total was attained after researchers at the Centre for Arab Genomic Studies, based in Dubai, last year identified another 16 disorders in the Arab population of the Emirates. The majority of the diseases are caused by a mutation in a single gene such as sickle-cell disease and cystic fibrosis. Disorders related to congenital malformations or metabolic disorders were also identified. Among the 16 disorders identified last year was Gaucher’s disease, which can cause an enlarged spleen, liver malfunction and skeletal problems.
Dr Mahmoud Taleb al Ali, the director of the genomics centre, said although the number of identifiable diseases is going up, that does not mean the number of sufferers is on the increase. “There is never a decrease in the types of diseases,” he said. “You may see a decrease in terms of the numbers of people affected, but the number of types will always increase all over the world.” Dr al Ali was speaking on the sidelines of the third Pan Arab Human Genetics Conference, which took place in Dubai on Saturday and Sunday. He said better knowledge and technologies, as well as better screening, had helped identify many of the diseases on the database.
Genetic testing is also common in the Emirates and every UAE national must be screened before marrying. This testing can show whether an individual has an inherited disposition to a certain disease, such as diabetes, or tell a couple whether they are likely to have a child affected by a genetic disease.
“We have done more literature research as well as physical research, so these diseases may have existed in the past but have never been recorded,” Dr al Ali said.
Dr Yousef Abdulrazzaq, a paediatrician and neurologist at the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences at UAE University in Al Ain, also emphasized that the main way to prevent the diseases was regular screening, particularly before marriage.
Contact with certain toxic chemicals or materials, such as lead or nuclear energy particles, can also cause mutations, he said.
The most common social factor contributing to the prevalence of genetic diseases is consanguineous marriages. The prevalence of Down syndrome, a chromosomal disorder, in the Emirates is almost double the global average, at 21.4 babies per 100,000. And about four to eight per cent of the UAE population is said to carry the thalassaemia allele, an inherited disorder in which the body produces less haemoglobin than normal. Haemoglobin allows red blood cells to carry oxygen around the body. Low levels can cause anaemia, which leads to tiredness and fatigue.
Dr Ghazi Tadmouri, the assistant director of the genomics center, said one of the centre’s main roles is to create a database that identifies all genetic disorders across the Middle East, “from Iraq to Morocco”.
“Genetic diseases range from blood disorders like sickle cell diseases, thalassaemia, haemophilia and haemoglobin disorders, all of which are rampant, to cancers, or genetic disorders related to the environment and lifestyle,” said Dr Tadmouri.
The UAE’s database, said Dr Tadmouri, relies on comprehensive surveys that are carried out regularly, and incorporates diseases highlighted in medical reviews and journals.
The Centre for Arab Genomic Studies, which is a division of the Sheikh Hamdan Award for Medical Sciences, organised the conference. | 2019-04-19T04:50:08 | http://www.cags.org.ae/news/details.aspx?id=6 |

This dip is for anyone who loves a gooey bacon cheeseburger! It’s so creamy and addicting… serve it at a party and watch it disappear, quickly!!
Does it get much better than a great dip at a party? I don’t know about you guys, but for me, the best part of a party is the food! Hanging out with great friends gets even more awesome when you’re hanging out around a spread of amazing party food. Wings, finger foods, and dips!!
I’ve always been a sucker for a great dip. There are SO many flavor combinations! I can’t take all the credit for this one though, I saw it on Delish and knew I had to try my hand at it.
I added a little extra bacon, more cheese on top, and garnished with chopped dill pickles (my favorite part!!), and let me just say… WOW!!! This is one of those dips that you literally won’t be able to just have one bite of… you’re going to be going back for seconds, thirds, fourths, etc.
For all the party foods I share here on the blog, I might give off the impression that I live this grand life full of parties and gatherings. Not really lol. Since having kids, we’ve settled down and prefer to either be with family, or hanging out here at home… which makes this introvert happy!! In years past, on Christmas Eve, we all would gather at my grandma’s house and everyone brings an appetizer/snack food… and we all just graze and spend time together. If we do that this year, I know I’ll be bringing this dip!!! Once it’s baked, you could transfer it to a small slow cooker and keep it on warm.
Our daughter’s birthday is actually on New Years Eve, so that holiday is spent at home as a family… but I’m going to start a new tradition where I’ll make all of our favorite appetizers for dinner that night (plus her cake of course). Everyone loves an appetizer dinner right?!
As far as dippers go, I stayed with the potato chips (that salty crunch is so satisfying!), but some toasted baguette slices would work too! This bacon cheeseburger dip is gooey, cheesy, creamy, and incredibly delicious!! I hope you guys give it a try… whether it’s for a party, game day, or even just as a fun snack to share.
Peanut Butter Cup Cheesecake Dip – great for using up leftover Halloween candy!
WANT TO TRY THIS CHEESEBURGER DIP?
Preheat oven to 350 F degrees. Spray an 8 inch cast iron skillet or 1.5-2 qt baking dish with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
To a large skillet, add bacon slices and cook over MED-LOW heat until browned and crispy. Remove to paper towel lined plate, reserving grease in skillet.
Increase heat to MED-HIGH. Add onions and cook until soft and translucent, about 4-5 minutes. Add ground beef, crumble and cook until cooked through, about 4-5 minutes. Transfer beef to another paper towel lined plate to absorb excess grease.
When bacon is cool enough to handle, crumble. Add crumbled bacon, cooked hamburger and onion, cream cheese, 1 cup of the cheeses, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt and pepper to a large mixing bowl. Mix well.
Transfer mixture to prepared skillet or baking dish, top with remaining 1/2 cup cheeses and bake until bubbly, about 12-15 minutes.
Top cooked dip with diced dill pickles and a sprinkling of fresh parsley (if desired), and serve hot. I like to serve this with potato chips.
Complete steps 2, 3, and 4 as directed. Next, transfer to a 2 quart slow cooker, sprinkle with remaining cheeses, cover, and cook on LOW for 3-4 hours or HIGH for 1 1/2 - 2 hours, or until warmed through and bubbly. Proceed with step 6 as directed.
For a large party, or if you have hungry guests, I suggest doubling the recipe.
The whole family loved this dip! Good with pita chips but even better with potato chips! Thanks for sharing!
Sounds great! Trying it tonight for the Super Bowl party.
This looks really good! A must-have for parties!!
I know what I am making for this weekend’s GNO!!!
Pass me the dip!! That sounds soooo good!
What a delicious dip! Great for all the Football Parties!
This looks amazing and the combination of flavors is simply incredible. Love it!!
I’m a sucker for a good dip, and this looks amazing!
This is sure to become a party dip favorite! Looks addictive!
Wowza. This. Looks. Amazing. Nothing better than a fall saturday full of friends and gameday eats, amirite!? Can’t wait to try this!
We love appetizer dinners! Everyone gets their favorite and it’s so much fun! I’ll definitely be adding this to the spread. | 2019-04-26T02:49:08 | https://www.thechunkychef.com/creamy-skillet-cheeseburger-dip/ |

The Woolmark logo was born in 1964, designed by Italian graphic designer Francesco Saroglia. Its five black bands criss-crossing to form a skein – represents the softness, elegance and purity of wool.
The Woolmark brand was owned originally by the International Wool Secretariat (IWS) founded in 1937, is now owned by Australian Wool Innovation Limited (AWI) since 2001. | 2019-04-23T12:52:26 | http://logok.org/woolmark-logo/ |
Turkana Central sub-county has 43 functional health facilities, with a distance of about 25–30 km between them, making accessibility for essential services a nightmare for the majority of our residents. To reach all the population, integrated outreaches play a key role in improving in our performance indicators as a sub-county.
As a sub-county, Turkana Central appreciates RMF for coming on board and upscaling outreach activities to 12 sites, which are undertaken monthly through the sub-county MOH office. These outreaches will improve the performance of MNH indicators, nutrition, HIV services, and general public health through health education and talks.
Health education is key to improving health seeking behavior and the general wellbeing of the community.
General hygiene and sanitation were covered at some sites.
Importance of immunization, ANC attendance, and family planning were also covered at other sites.
The aim of nutrition screening is to support growth and development milestones for children and also support pregnant women to prevent pregnancy-related complications.
Most malnutrition cases were in Ngimuriae and Nangolpus (areas in Kerio Division, where the nutrition survey report also singled out the most cases).
Cases screened were managed and scheduled for monthly reviews to monitor their progress.
138 children were fully immunized, accounting for 30.7% of our monthly target.
44 children received OPV 3 antigen.
42 and 48 received PENTA 1 and 3 respectively.
A total of 549 adults and children received general treatment. Referrals for conditions that could not be managed in the field were issued and followed up by the community health volunteers.
A total of 289 children received Vitamin A supplementation.
94 lactating mothers received supplementation.
Deworming is a major gap in our sub-county. The outreaches will highly boost the indicator, even as we try to reach as many children as possible. It’s one of the indicators in which we performed dismally at the just concluded annual county review meeting.
A majority of pregnant women come to only one ANC appointment late in their pregnancy. As a sub-county, 4th ANC coverage for 2016 was 45%. To improve 4th ANC coverage, outreaches will play a key role in reaching as many mothers as possible. This can be achieved by line listing all the mothers who came for ANC at the facility and then follow up with them during outreaches. The outreaches will target all the mothers who usually do not access services.
45 pregnant women received tetanus toxoid vaccination.
29 were new ANC patients.
5 completed a 4th ANC visit.
A total of 201 pregnant women received iron and folate supplementation (IFAS).
Turkana Central has an estimated population of 211,280. | 2019-04-24T11:58:28 | https://www.realmedicinefoundation.org/initiative-reports/kenya/archives/2017/03/18/integrated-outreaches-support-12-sites-turkana-central-february-2017/ |
In our last GhostMarketer series article Six reasons to market your firm we looked at why you need a marketing plan to remain competitive. Now we turn to the how part.
Successful marketing needn’t cost a fortune – in fact many of the basics cost little or nothing! A great example of this is GhostMarketer which is part and parcel of your GhostConvey package.
Shoestring marketing is an old concept – tried and tested, and extremely powerful. Whether you have a large marketing budget or a limited one, follow the “6 Practical Steps” below to get maximum benefit for minimum cost.
In our next article we will look at "Targeted Marketing: Choosing your tools".
This is critical - you need to have a crystal clear idea of where you are going, or you will end up going nowhere! Set a clear, attainable goal, with a deadline.
e.g. "To maximise profits by increasing the level of new, good quality instructions (i.e. transfers over R3m) by 10% by end November 2016".
The more detail you give in your description the better - all of your marketing from here on will be aimed at communicating with this target market.
e.g. "Anyone likely to invest in immovable property (specify price range) in (specify geographical area) within (specify a time period)".
e.g. "I want my house to be transferred and the purchase price paid to me as quickly as possible, with minimal effort and expense on my part".
(Four possible avenues, and some practical suggestions, are given below - adjust and expand them to your firm's particular goals and circumstances).
A website: it needn’t be fancy or expensive, but it must project your professionalism. Keep it effortlessly updated with monthly newsletters via RSS feeds (we’ll show you how).
A LinkedIn page for the firm and for each partner/director/professional.
Check signage outside your offices – first impressions set the tone for every client visit.
Your offices – Reception and telephone answering are usually the first point of contact and should receive special attention. Task someone specific to take responsibility for incoming e-mail enquiries.
Branding – A strong corporate identity is essential and at its heart is your firm’s logo. Don’t try to make your own unless you are an expert (an amateurish logo is false economy). In a pinch it’s fine to just use your firm’s name as shown on your letterhead, but add colour to it for electronic communication (“e-colour” is free and very effective). Be sure to keep your branding consistent across all your client communications (e-mails, newsletters etc).
Create a basic database of all sellers, buyers and agents from every transfer, and add to it all potential new clients. We will show you how best to use your GhostConvey database to easily create segmented lists of contacts.
GhostMarketer: Use it to send targeted and scheduled messages to key segments of your database. We’ll show you how to set this up easily, with all your branding and contact details on each message.
LawDotNews: Client newsletters have been at the core of every large firm’s marketing plans for decades because they work. Useful, interesting articles and strong branding of your newsletters is essential – we’ll show you how with our effortless, low-cost LawDotNews newsletter system.
6.4 Keep in the "public eye"
(Not vital if you have the previous two steps covered, and low cost is essential - with new prospects, you need 6 to 11 regular repetitions of your name/branding before brand recognition kicks in). | 2019-04-19T12:36:02 | http://www.ghostdigest.com/articles/shoestring-marketing/52440 |

Father Roderick’s “Superheroes Checklist” is insightful and a great deal of fun for those with geekish tendencies (like myself) who enjoy superhero stories, but it also makes discernment very accessible to anyone who has seen even one superhero film. Included in his checklist are: seek solitude, study and read, discover your strengths and acknowledge your weaknesses, be humble, listen to your friends, do not fear, and persevere.
Below is my less-fun, not super-hero related list of essentials to put in place in your life as you begin or continue to discern your vocation. (Notice that my list intersects with Geekpriest’s SuperHeroes Checklist in more than one place!) This list also sums up a whole slew of my previous blog posts.
1. A dynamic prayer life and sacramental life. Have a real relationship with God that is living and growing. This means a regular prayer life, not just a “hit or miss” approach, or only praying “when I feel like it.” If you haven’t already, commit to daily prayer.
Becoming an “expert” in prayer is a lifelong journey, but having a genuine relationship with God when we are seeking his will is essential. How better to learn how to recognize God’s invitation in the big decisions we have to make, than to listen to God every day?
The sacraments are the privileged ways that the Church offers us an encounter with Christ. Frequently participating in Holy Mass (Sunday Mass is the minimum) and regular reception of the Sacrament of Reconciliation are the ordinary means for growing in our relationship with God. They might seem “ordinary,” but both sacraments are really hidden miracles in our midst.
At Mass, we adore, thank, offer ourselves with, and receive Jesus himself, who delights in sharing himself with us and inviting us into his own relationship with the Father. In the Sacrament of Reconciliation, all of the obstacles that we put between God and ourselves—our sins, woundedness, and flaws—are forgiven and healed in a sacred encounter with Jesus’ merciful love.
2. Strive to live a good moral life. All of us are called to holiness, to grow in union with God here on earth, a union that will be fulfilled in perfect communion with God in heaven. Every vocation is a call to profound holiness. Constantly living in a state of serious sin means we are putting obstacles between us and God. All sin is a roadblock for our discernment, because sin is turning away from God’s will and choosing our will over God’s. Instead, discernment is striving to know and live God’s will. We do not need to be sinless to discern because we are all sinners, but we want to be striving to be upright, sincere about our journey of growing in virtue.
God has a plan for us that will bring about our greatest happiness and in which we will help others in a way that no one else will.
4. Get to know ourselves. This includes not just getting to know our gifts and weaknesses, but also discovering our motivations, which helps us to know what is most important to us. Including a daily examination of conscience in our prayer helps us to discover any area in our life—an attachment to a particular sin, for example—that might prevent us from seeking God’s will. Why are we entering into this discernment? What is in our hearts, what are we seeking? How can we more singleheartedly seek God’s will?
5. Active engagement with the Church. Our vocational state in life determines our role in the Church, as well as in life. Discernment doesn’t just involve God and us; it also involves the Church, the People of God within whom we will live and serve. In order to discern our role in the Church, we must already know the Church from the inside by being actively engaged with our parish or a church group. If we have not been involved with our parish, or other form of ministry, now is the time to get involved!
Especially for those discerning religious life or priesthood, or between one of these and marriage, it is essential to take part in the ministry and missionary life of the Church; otherwise we will not have the experience of sharing our gifts in ministry and the Church’s mission. Without this experience it’s hard to know what it would be like to share our gifts in this way as a lay person, sister, brother, or priest. We don’t always have to do this through our parish—there are other church groups that we can become involved in—but we need to find some way to get really involved in the Church’s ministry and mission.
6. Regular spiritual direction. [For more about spiritual direction—what it is, how to find a director, and what to expect for the first time, visit here and here.] A spiritual director may not be necessary as we begin discerning our vocation, but once we start to get serious, we should definitely start seeing a spiritual director regularly.
The first five areas are so important for discerning that they are, in a way, “prerequisites” to seriously discerning one’s vocation. If any of these are lacking, it might be a good idea to make that our “next step” in discerning our vocation. | 2019-04-23T06:50:44 | https://coauthoryourlifewithgod.com/2016/01/20/checklists-for-discerning-our-vocation/?shared=email&msg=fail |

Instead of just doing whatever the path of the brush stroke would dictate, an additional step of processing is performed, the post correction step. With this, the brush stroke that you just painted will take a different appearance, as the size of the brush along its painted path is recalculated based on the curve in the post correction panel.
In earlier releases, this feature was only used in the Paint brush tool.
Now it can also apply to the Curve tool.
There is a new icon dedicated to showing the post correction dropdown panel for quick convenient access.
There are also a few presets of post correction curves.
This Meteor started as a curve of several points along a straight line, and post-correction was used to change the size of the brush rendered along it. Then we added various filter efects for glow and light diffusion, and some starry lensflares.
In addition to changing the size along the brush stroke, it is now also possible to use a gradient which will apply color changes along the path.
Some brushes may not use the gradient, as they may contain images with their own colors, but if they're in matte mode and for some internal brushes, you will see a colorful impact for using this gradient feature on post correction.
Here are two more examples. In the first case, we have a custom brush containing multi-color text ("Symmetry"). It is by default not used in Matte mode.
the first brush stroke along the left side shows the native colors of the image in the brush unmodified, even when we had the gradient enabled on post correction.
The middle brush stroke is in Matte mode (see (5) on the brush Settings panel's Custom tab). It shows just with the primary color when the gradient is disabled.
the right-most brush stroke was with Matte mode AND gradient post correction. Now we get the colorful alteration!
Here is one more example, where we combined the envelope curve for changing the size with the gradient for changing the color.
The hedgehog is an image based custom brush again.
The Matte mode's brush stroke reveals the primary color when gradient post correction is disabled.
With gradient enabled, we see the colors along the path, from bottom to top in this case.
The Brush size can be enveloped.
There's a post effect for the brush stroke that resizes the brush along the path, with a graph editor to set the progression. Look for it in the View menu. More on this to come soon. | 2019-04-19T01:30:11 | https://www.thebest3d.com/howler/features/post-correction/ |

A great performance from the Under 10 Warriors at the HRI on Saturday morning, in what seemed our first home game for ages!
Hillmorton are new entrants into the league, with this being their first match and it was a thriller with strong, committed performances from both teams, played in a friendly atmosphere.
In an end-to-end first half, Corey was called into action early on, with Hillmorton hitting the post within the first 5 minutes, but our defence of Joe, George and Lachlan(c) did well to quell their advances, supported by Will J-W and Josh from Midfield. The Warriors grew into the game more and more as the half progressed and, after a few chances from both teams, a super through ball from Will J-W fed Will J on the left hand side of the box who gave us the lead with a calm, accurate finish. Harry’s movement up-front created the space for Will J, pulling their defence apart and shouldn’t be forgotten! All in all, some great play from both sides in the first half, with some crisp, accurate passing, good movement and good awareness.
The second half saw George in goal with Corey moving to right back and Will J-W taking his place in the centre of defence. Lachlan carried on the excellent work he did at left back in the first half.
The Warriors continued where they left off, quickly adding a second goal with some fantastic build-up play from Corey, Joe and Josh ending in a lovely left-foot finish from Will J. 2 real team goals whilst making it increasingly difficult for Hillmorton when they had the ball.
However, our lead seemed to spur Hillmorton on, and the pace of their attacks grew and grew as the game became more stretched. The Warriors defence valiantly blocked, shepherded and tackled everything they threw at us, including a fabulous double-save from George in goal. You got the feeling a goal was coming and two came in short succession with a third soon after from a corner we failed to clear…. One for some work at training on Friday!
However, having gone behind the Warriors seemed determined to get the game back on an even keel, taking advantage of the game opening up with some fabulous play. Will J went close with an excellent free kick and Hillmorton followed that by hitting the post until, with only 6 minutes remaining we got the equaliser the lads deserved with Josh providing the finish. Defensively, both teams had decided they’d let enough goals in and the resilience showed by both defences in the last few minutes saw the game end in a result both sides can be proud of.
Corey was this week’s team player of the week after a great display in goal in the 1st half followed by some excellent drive, determination, passing, pressing and defending in the second! On to next week and another home game…. WELL DONE BOYS!! | 2019-04-20T12:31:45 | https://www.wellesbournewanderersfc.co.uk/reports/under-10-warriors-vs-hillmorton-match-report-04112017/ |

Avoidable rework constitutes a large part of development projects, i.e. 20-80 percent depending on the maturity of the organization and the complexity of the products. High amounts of avoidable rework commonly occur when having many faults left to correct in late stages of a project. In fact, research studies indicate that the cost of rework could be decreased by up to 30-50 percent by finding more faults earlier. However, since larger software systems have an almost infinite number of usage scenarios, trying to find most faults early through for example formal specifications and extensive inspections is very time-consuming. Therefore, such an approach is not cost-effective in products that do not have extremely high quality requirements. For example, in market-driven development, time-to-market is at least as important as quality. Further, some areas such as hardware dependent aspects of a product might not be possible to verify early through for example code reviews or unit tests. Therefore, in such environments, rework reduction is primarily about finding faults earlier to the extent it is cost-effective, i.e. find the right faults in the right phase. Through a set of case studies at a department at Ericsson AB, this thesis investigates how to achieve early and cost-effective fault detection through improvements in the test process. The case studies include investigations on how to identify which improvements that are most beneficial to implement, possible solutions to the identified improvement areas, and approaches for how to follow-up implemented improvements. The contributions of the thesis include a framework for component-level test automation and test-driven development. Additionally, the thesis provides methods for how to use fault statistics for identifying and monitoring test process improvements. In particular, we present results from applying methods that can quantify unnecessary fault costs and pinpointing which phases and activities to focus improvements on in order to achieve earlier and more cost-effective fault detection. The goal of the methods is to make organizations strive towards finding the right fault in the right test phase, which commonly is in early test phases. The developed methods were also used for evaluating the results of implementing the above-mentioned test framework at Ericsson AB. Finally, the thesis demonstrates how the implementation of such improvements can be continuously monitored to obtain rapid feedback on the status of defined goals. This was achieved through enhancements of previously applied fault analysis methods. | 2019-04-20T04:44:23 | http://bth.diva-portal.org/smash/record.jsf?pid=diva2%3A837474&c=26&searchType=SERIES&language=en&query=&af=%5B%5D&aq=%5B%5B%7B%22seriesId%22%3A%2212154%22%7D%5D%5D&aq2=%5B%5B%5D%5D&aqe=%5B%5D&noOfRows=50&sortOrder=author_sort_asc&sortOrder2=title_sort_asc&onlyFullText=false&sf=all |
According to senior White House staff, after President Bush watched a DVD compilation of what the rest of us had been watching on the Evening News, he realized how serious the Katrina crisis was. After many days of inaction he has now committed to rebuilding New Orleans.
That sounds like a worthy goal. But, it also raises many questions.
• Assuming the great environmental disaster can be cleaned up, assuming an adequate long-term flood control system can be put in place–and validations of these assumptions are far from certain and surly years away at best–who decides how the Crescent City should be rebuilt? Will the great diaspora of hundreds of thousands scattered across the fifty states be consulted? Or will the pre-Katrina blend of industry, finance, and tourism, supported by a workforce largely living in poverty, residing in class/race segregation, simply be duplicated?
• Who will pay for this mammoth rebuilding–with figures bandied about going as high as a quarter of a trillion dollars? The president is a bit vague but pledges the federal government will "spend whatever it takes." At the same time he rules out any raise in taxes–spending on other programs must be cut, he tells us. But, of course, some programs are out of bounds for cost cutting. Reductions in the war or homeland security budgets, for example, are verboten. That guarantees further substantial slashes in health care, education, unemployment comp, veteran’s benefits, mass transit, OSHA enforcement–any and all of the socially useful government services not yet completely axed.
• To aid rebuilding contractors the administration has taken steps to eliminate prevailing wage protections in construction work and is loosening environmental and workplace safety requirements as well.
The employers that Bush counts heavily on to put unemployed Katrina victims to work have already demonstrated some imagination. California Pacific Medical Center in San Francisco got a dozen "evacuees" from a temp agency to fill in for striking SEIU housekeeping workers.
Clearly, the drift of what Washington and Wall Street have in store will do little for the working class victims of Katrina and will mean more misery for many of the rest of us.
The "opposition" Democrats have little to offer. Their big effort is demanding a "Katrina Commission" that could embarrass the Bush administration.
It seems to me that we need a truly bold response in the interest of working people. We should demand that the working class of New Orleans–including the "evacuees"--be recognized as the primary stakeholders in the future of that city. Neighborhood associations, trade unions, civil rights groups, and environmental organizations should have the lead voice in determining how their city be reconstructed.
Above all now, this is a time to guarantee fair wages for all those in the rebuilding effort, along with adequate income assistance for those who remain out of work. Above all now, this is a time to set and enforce environmental standards to ensure there will never again be a disaster of the scope of Katrina Above all now, this is the time to eradicate, not replicate, slums and to guarantee new adequate housing for all–and in all parts of the city, without regard for class or race.
Anything less will only compound and spread around the disaster that began with Hurricane Katrina.
"Oxfam America has made an exception to its policy of expecting that well-resourced governments, such as ours, will effectively respond to their own crises. The government’s response to Katrina amounts to a massive institutional failure...Across communities in southern Louisiana and Mississippi, where poverty rates soar above the national average, many of the most marginalized people have neither resources to fall back on nor much hope that government assistance will reach them any time soon. Our work is focusing on poor rural and urban residents many of whom are African-American farmers, migrant farm workers, and immigrant dock workers. We are providing not only a direct response, but are planning ways to help communities with their long-term recovery."
President Bush did catch one break because of Katrina–it diverted some attention from the war in Iraq. Of course, most of the population in Iraq has been living in Katrina-type conditions for 2½ years now because of the U.S. invasion and occupation.
Many Iraqi workers are courageously fighting to improve their lives through trade union and political organization. They deserve our support.
Others, as could be expected, have carried out a military resistance to the occupation forces–resulting in nearly two thousand deaths and thousands more wounds and injuries to American GIs.
Still others, who summon our memories of Pol Pot’s Killing Fields, have used the rage against occupation to recruit the desperate for misdirected murderous attacks on Iraqis–such as the bombings of day laborers looking for work, and a school bus filled with children, just this past week.
There will be no peace, no reconstruction in Iraq until U.S. occupation forces are withdrawn. I urge you to participate, alongside many trade unionists, in mass demonstrations next weekend calling for Bring the Troops Home Now!
In the propaganda against Social Security much has been made of the fact that people now live considerably longer than when that program was established. One factor in this growth in longevity has been the increased utilization of nursing homes, assisted living facilities, and home health care. These facilities are not cheap. The national average annual cost per user is more than 72,000 dollars. Such a burden would be unsustainable for the big majority without substantial help from Medicaid. The Bush administration, acting on suggestions from the National Governors Association, is proposing to slash ten billion from this assistance over the next five years. Undoubtedly they see a double fiscal benefit from keeping old folks out of long term care–it will also reduce Social Security payments as well.
¶ The Coalition of Labor Union Women (CLUW) held their 13th Biannual Convention this past weekend in Detroit. Among their actions was endorsement of the September 24 antiwar demonstrations.
¶ The Canadian Communications, Energy and Paperworkers Union (CEP) has launched a public campaign to pressure Bell Canada to pay up on a long overdue pay equity award to thousands of women telephone operators. When the union began this fight ten years ago there were 5,000 working operators; today there are 250.
¶ Our friend Rod, in Vancouver, commenting on efforts to eliminate trade union representation in the B.C. New Democrats writes, "The madness continues...Our labour party (BC New Democratic Party) is about to make a giant step to the right. It is going to abandon it's labour union roots and become a party of the bosses and intellectual elitists never thought I would see this happen to our party."
¶ AMFA strikers are holding firm even after Northwest Airline’s bankruptcy scam. They got a boost last week from the UAW who, ignoring official AFL-CIO policy, contributed 880,000 dollars to the union’s strike fund.
I’ll be leaving for the Gateway City on Thursday to attend the Jobs with Justice conference and an antiwar rally there next Sunday. With our new lap top computer and broadband connection in the hotel I expect to be able to keep the Daily Labor News Digest updated and post next week’s Review from on the road. | 2019-04-21T22:16:01 | http://www.kclabor.org/wir9182005.htm |

Securing a cheap flight is quite a task for many travelers and we have some useful advice about how to find one. Flights cover a great deal of the costs when booking a holiday and can work out to be really expensive. This results in dream getaways and family vacations unfortunately being put on hold.
But don’t let this disappoint you, there are a few elements that can really bring down your airfare expenses and therefore enable you to grab some international flight deals and domestic airfares to your favourite destinations.
Firstly, one thing you need to consider is flexibility. The price of flight tickets differ immensely depending on dates and times of departures, so you should be open minded on when to fly. We advise you to travel either really early in the morning or late at night. Although this is a minor inconvenience, it will certainly get you cheaper rates.
Tuesdays and Wednesdays are generally agreed to be two of the best days to fly if you’re looking to save money. Furthermore, avoid travelling on major holidays - the price will rise by quite a margin. Instead, look into travelling a few days before or after the major holidays.
times and dates available, so more cheap air tickets will be up for grabs that you can pick and choose from. There will also be discounted holiday packages on offer and some early bird discounts that you can take advantage of, so why not sign up to email alerts and receive regular updates about great offers.
Book your travels online with Traveasy - this is a great and fast way to save more and is highly convenient. Finally, do your research before booking. We hope this helps you to find the best low cost flights! | 2019-04-22T16:04:12 | https://www.traveasy.co.in/air-tickets |
It is quite a pleasant month of June, where we all chill out and tour Facebook for items to redeem just for the sake of trying out new things! I always like to have these things sent to me, even though I don't really use them often, because it is just fun to open your mailbox to see a lumpy package!
I have been really fond of Neutrogena's new Water gel sunscreen, because usually sunscreens have that common, unflattering smell of some odd foundation/chemical and I really disliked the smell of it on my face, and hey! This new Water Gel Sunscreen smells darn amazing and refreshing, like watermelons (to me)! Not only so, it has an interesting color: a light, pretty baby blue that is semi-translucent (see picture below, right).
It does not feel sticky when applied on the skin, and also doesn't make the skin oily, since I wore it out a few times, always worrying that my face will turn into some oil puddle, but it didn't happen, much to my surprise. The best part is that it does not feel dry on our skin but leaves it feeling reasonably hydrated, refreshed and decent smelling. I mean, smell is important, since you will be smelling your own face for quite some time before the scent wears off!
I also like how Neutrogena takes much care in having that sealed tip to ensure that even our samples are clean and fresh. Overall, I really like this product, and I will give it 5/5! Will definitely buy it once I finish my current (unpleasant smelling) sunscreen.
The mouth wash smells good, and leaves one with a clear refreshing breath afterwards, but despite it claiming to have a "mild and gentle flavour", it still stings quite a bit, and is still very minty. I have a lot of mouth wash that claims to be mild in flavor, but I always find them too minty: hold them in your mouth for a minute too long and feel your tongue going numb from all the prickling.
Still, I like the idea of using green tea scent, especially since I got really tired of things like mint, strong mint, herbal mint and the similar, green tea is indeed refreshing! Also thumbs up to keeping my breath fresh. The downside is that I realized that the "fresh and cool" breath feeling disappeared pretty quickly, like within half an hour or less, I can barely feel it anymore.
Personally, I enjoyed these hair masks tremendously, especially when Essential is really quite generous with each of the samples that they provided. For this round, they let everyone try one pink packaged hair mask (Nuance Airy) and orange-packaged one (Rich Premier). I have not really had much faith in hair masks before this, because I never find it necessary and all, but these hair masks changed my view of them completely.
For one thing, they smell amazing. Nuance Airy (pink) smells like sweet strawberries and honey, and smoothens out easily when applied to hair, leaving the hair silky and smooth. Especially when one is washing the mask off, there is literally no knots left in the hair and water just cascades down, like that.
Not to mention the after effects of using Nuance Airy (pink), I noted that my hair did not frizz out as much as it did usually, but lie down flat and smooth (all the while smelling as though they have just had a dip in strawberry cream). The good effects of Nuance Airy hair mask continued for almost two days, I took the pains of depriving myself of a hair wash for two days to see what would happen. For the next two days, my hair remained as great as ever: no frizz, no knots, just that amazing silky smooth texture (and great smell). I supposed the effect could have lasted even longer, but then my scalp was feeling terrible by the end of the second day, all oily and unbearable, so I gave up the test and enjoyed a good hair wash.
Currently, I am using Rich Premier (orange) sample, and it is still fabulous, even though I don't really feel as if there is any different from Nuance Airy. It smells rather like orange and mangoes with honey (yum yum), and I got to give it to Essential for coming up with such fantastic sweet smells. Like their Purely Smooth Shampoo and Conditioner smelled fantastic enough, and now it is just like pure heaven!
Thanks for reading guys and keep healthy! | 2019-04-24T09:01:50 | http://live-and-dictate.blogspot.com/2013/06/samples-redeemed-june-2013.html |

"Doberman" redirects here. For other uses, see Doberman (disambiguation).
The Dobermann (/ˈdoʊbərmən/; German pronunciation: [ˈdoːbɐman]), or Doberman Pinscher in the United States and Canada, is a medium-large breed of domestic dog that was originally developed around 1890 by Karl Friedrich Louis Dobermann, a tax collector from Germany. The Dobermann has a long muzzle. It stands on its pads and is not usually heavy-footed. Ideally, they have an even and graceful gait. Traditionally, the ears are cropped and posted and the tail is docked. However, in some countries, it is illegal to do so. Dobermanns have markings on the chest, paws/legs, muzzle, above the eyes, and underneath the tail.

World Breed standards are published by the Fédération Cynologique Internationale, or FCI (World Canine Organisation), on the advice of the IDC (International Dobermann Club), which is the Dobermann breed's governing council and has 36 countries in its member list. To become a world champion, dogs are judged to FCI standards. The AKC has its own standards, as do some other countries, although most still adhere to FCI standards. The breed standard describes the Dobermann as a dog of medium size that is also strong and muscularly built. In order to be eligible to meet these standards, the body of the Dobermann should appear to be almost square. It should also appear elegant and noble.
The dog was originally intended as a guard dog, so males typically have a muscular and intimidating appearance. Females are usually thinner, but should not be spindly. The American Kennel Club (AKC) breed standard differs from the Fédération Cynologique Internationale (FCI) standards, with the latter being an often larger and heavier dog. This has led some to argue that Dobermanns and Doberman Pinschers should be considered and evaluated differently.
Although the breed standards vary among kennel and breed clubs, most follow the standard set by the FCI, which describes the size of male dogs as 68 to 72 centimetres (27 to 28 in) at the withers; The Kennel Club in the UK quotes 69 centimetres (27 in) as being ideal. The size of female dogs, according to the same standards, is 63 to 68 centimetres (25 to 27 in), with 65 centimetres (26 in) being ideal. The Dobermann has a square frame; its length should equal its height to the withers and the length of its head, neck, and legs should be in proportion to its body.
The standards for the weight of the Dobermann are also described by the FCI. The ideal dog must be of a sufficient size for an optimal combination of strength, endurance and agility. The ideal weight of male dogs is described as 40–45 kilograms (88–99 lb) and the ideal weight of female dogs is described to be 32–35 kilograms (71–77 lb).
Two different color genes exist in the Dobermann: one for black (B) and one for color dilution (D). There are nine possible combinations of these alleles, which can result in four different color phenotypes: black, blue, red, and fawn . The traditional and most common color occurs when both the color and dilution genes have at least one dominant allele (i.e., BBDD, BBDd, BbDD or BbDd) and is commonly referred to as black, black and rust, or black and tan. The red, red rust, or brown coloration occurs when the black gene has two recessive alleles but the dilution gene has at least one dominant allele (i.e., bbDD, bbDd). The blue Dobermann has the color gene with at least one dominant allele and the dilution gene with both recessive alleles (i.e., BBdd or Bbdd). The fawn coloration is the least common, occurring only when both the color and dilution genes have two recessive alleles (i.e., bbdd). Thus, the blue color is a diluted black, and the fawn color is a diluted red.
Expression of the color dilution gene is a disorder called Color Dilution Alopecia, a kind of canine follicular dysplasia. Although not life-threatening, these dogs can develop skin problems.
In 1976, a "white" Doberman Pinscher was whelped and was subsequently bred to her son, who was also bred to his litter sisters. This tight inbreeding continued for some time to allow the breeders to "fix" the mutation. White Dobermanns are a cream color with white markings and blue eyes. Although this is consistent with albinism, the proper characterization of the mutation is currently unknown. The animals are commonly known as tyrosinase-positive albinoids, lacking melanin in oculocutaneous structures. This condition is caused by a partial deletion in the SLC45A2 gene.
The Dobermann's natural tail is fairly long, but individual dogs often have a short tail as a result of docking, a procedure in which the majority of the tail is surgically removed shortly after birth.
Dobermanns often have their ears cropped, a procedure that is thought to be done for functionality for both the traditional guard duty and effective sound localization. According to the Doberman Pinscher Club of America, ears are "normally cropped and carried erect". Like tail docking, ear cropping is illegal in many countries and has never been legal in some Commonwealth countries.
Canine intelligence is an umbrella term that encompasses the faculties involved in a wide range of mental tasks, such as learning, problem-solving, and communication. The Doberman Pinscher has been ranked amongst the most intelligent dog breeds in experimental studies and expert evaluations. Psychologist Stanley Coren ranks the Dobermann as the 5th most intelligent dog in the category of obedience command training, based on the selective surveys answered by experienced trainers (as documented in his book The Intelligence of Dogs). Additionally, in two studies, Hart and Hart (1985) ranked the Doberman Pinscher first in the same category, and Tortora (1980) gave the Dobermann the highest rank in general trainability. Although the methods of evaluation differ, these studies have consistently shown that the Doberman Pinscher, along with the Border Collie, Standard Poodle, German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, and Rottweiler, is one of the most trainable breeds of dog.
Although they are considered to be working dogs, Dobermanns are often stereotyped as being ferocious and aggressive. As a personal protection dog, the Dobermann was originally bred for these traits: it had to be large and intimidating, fearless, and willing to defend its owner from attackers (especially other guard dogs), but sufficiently obedient and restrained to do so only on command. These traits served the dog well in its role as a personal defense dog, police dog, or war dog, but were not ideally adapted to a companionship role. The Dobermann's aggression has been toned down by modern breeders over the years, however, today's Dobermanns are known to have a much more even and good-natured temperament, as well as extreme loyalty, high intelligence and great trainability. The modern Dobermann is known to be energetic, watchful, fearless and obedient.
They can easily learn to 'Respect and Protect' their owners and are therefore considered by many to be excellent guard dogs. Given that they are properly socialized from a young age, they are generally sociable toward familiar humans and can also be sociable with other dogs. However, Dobermanns do rank among the more-likely breeds to show aggressive behaviour toward strangers and other dogs, though they are not among the most likely to do so. They are highly unlikely to show aggressive behaviour toward their owners.
There is some evidence that Doberman Pinschers in North America have a calmer and more even temperament than their European counterparts because of the breeding strategies employed by American breeders. Because of these differences in breeding strategies, different lines of Doberman Pinschers have developed different traits. Although many contemporary Doberman Pinschers in North America are gentle and friendly to strangers, however, some lines are bred more true to the original personality standard.
The personality of the Doberman Pinscher is known to be unique. There is a great deal of scientific evidence that Doberman Pinschers have a number of stable psychological traits, such as certain personality factors and intelligence. As early as 1965, studies have shown that there are several broad behavioral traits that significantly predict behavior and are genetically determined. Subsequently, there have been numerous scientific attempts to quantify canine personality or temperament by using statistical techniques for assessing personality traits in humans. These studies often vary in terms of the personality factors they focus on and in terms of ranking breeds differently along these dimensions. One such study found that Doberman Pinschers, compared to other breeds, rank high in playfulness, average in curiosity/fearlessness, low on aggressiveness and low on sociability. Another such study ranked Doberman Pinschers low on reactivity/surgence and high on aggression/disagreeableness and openness/trainability.
In addition to the studies of canine personality, there has been some research to determine whether there are breed differences in aggression. In a study published in 2008, aggression was divided into four categories: aggression directed at strangers, owner, strange dogs, and rivalry with other household dogs. This study found that the Doberman Pinscher ranked relatively high on stranger-directed aggression, but extremely low on owner-directed aggression. The Doberman Pinscher ranked as average on dog-directed aggression and dog rivalry. Looking only at bites and attempted bites, Doberman Pinschers rank as far less aggressive towards humans and show less aggression than many breeds without a reputation (e.g., Cocker Spaniel, Dalmatian, and Great Dane). This study concluded that aggression has a genetic basis, that the Dobermann shows a distinctive pattern of aggression depending on the situation and that contemporary Doberman Pinschers are not an aggressive breed overall. In regards to Dobermanns attacking owners, it is rare and usually in the case of overdiscipline. Dobermanns accept physical punishment to an extent. However, when they consider it to no longer be punishment, but an attack on themselves, they will defend themselves.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, between 1979 and 1998, the Doberman Pinscher was involved in attacks on humans resulting in fatalities less frequently than several other dog breeds such as German Shepherd Dogs, Rottweilers, Husky-type dogs, wolf-dog hybrids and Alaskan Malamutes. According to this Center for Disease Control and Prevention study, one of the most important factors contributing to dog bites is the level of responsibility exercised by dog owners.
The Dobermann's lifespan is about 10–13 years on average. The breed is prone to a number of health concerns. Common serious health problems include dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), cervical vertebral instability (CVI), von Willebrand's disease (a bleeding disorder for which genetic testing has been available since 2000), and prostatic disease. Less serious common health concerns include hypothyroidism and hip dysplasia. Canine compulsive disorder is also common. Studies have shown that the Doberman Pinscher suffers from prostatic diseases, (such as bacterial prostatiti, prostatic cysts, prostatic adenocarcinoma, and benign hyperplasia) more than any other breed.
Dilated cardiomyopathy is a major cause of death in Dobermanns. This disease affects the breed more than any other. Nearly 40% of DCM diagnoses are for Dobermann Pinschers, followed by German Shepherds at 13%. More recent studies based on European dogs, however, has indicated that DCM affected rates are much higher for this population than their American relatives: around 58% of European Dobermanns will develop DCM within their lifetime. Research has shown that the breed is affected by an attenuated wavy fiber type of DCM that affects many other breeds, as well as an additional fatty infiltration-degenerative type that appears to be specific to Dobermann Pinscher and Boxer breeds. This serious disease is likely to be fatal in most Dobermanns affected.
Roughly a quarter of Dobermann Pinschers who develop cardiomyopathy die suddenly from seemingly unknown causes, and an additional fifty percent die of congestive heart failure. Among female Dobermanns, the sudden death manifestation of the disease is more common, whereas males tend to develop congestive heart failure. In addition to being more prevalent in Dobermanns, this disease is also more serious in the breed. Following a diagnosis, the average non-Dobermann has an expected survival time of 8 months; for Dobermann Pinschers, however, the expected survival time is less than 2 months. Although the causes for the disease are largely unknown, there is evidence that it is a familial disease inherited as an autosomal dominant trait. Investigation into the genetic causes of canine DCM may lead to therapeutic and breeding practices to limit its impact.
The history of the Dobermann breed is sometimes disputed by experts; however, it's generally thought that Dobermanns were first bred in the 1880s by Karl Friedrich Louis Dobermann in the town of Apolda, in the German state of Thuringia. It is generally disagreed upon what Dobermann's main job was, but it is known for certain that he ran the Apolda dog pound. With access to dogs of many breeds, he got the idea to create a breed that would be ideal for protecting him, as whatever job he was believed to have taken next; a tax collector, a night watchman, a rent collector, and other such things- surely were dangerous. He set out to breed a new type of dog that, in his opinion, would exhibit impressive stamina, strength, and intelligence. Five years after his death, Otto Goeller, one of the earliest breeders, created the National Doberman Pinscher Club and is considered to have perfected the breed, taking on the work of breeding and refining them in the 1890s.
The breed is believed to have been created from several different breeds of dogs that had the characteristics that Dobermann was looking for. The exact ratios of mixing, and even the exact breeds that were used, remain uncertain, although many experts believe that the Dobermann Pinscher is a combination of several breeds including the Beauceron, German Pinscher, Rottweiler and Weimaraner. The single exception is the documented crossing with the Greyhound and Manchester Terrier. It is also widely believed that the old German Shepherd was the single largest contributor to the Dobermann breed. Philip Greunig's The Dobermann Pinscher (1939) describes the breed's early development by Otto Goeller, who helped to establish the breed. The American Kennel Club believes the breeds utilized to develop the Dobermann Pinscher may have included the old shorthaired shepherd, Rottweiler, Black and Tan Terrier and the German Pinscher.
After Dobermann's death in 1894, the Germans named the breed Dobermann-pinscher in his honor, but a half century later dropped the word 'pinscher' on the grounds that this German word for 'terrier' was no longer appropriate. The British did the same a few years later; now the US and Canada are the only countries who continue to use Pinscher and have dropped an "n" from Dobermann's surname.
Doberman Pinscher became very popular over a short period. It's a relatively new breed less than 150 years old. According to latest ranking in 2017 by American Kennel Club, Dobermans are the 16th most popular dog breed. Dobermans started to become popular when they were used in World War II as guard dogs. In 1970's Doberman had their fair share in movies. They starred in the 1972 film 'The Doberman Gang'. Doberman also became popular after winning four Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show in 1939, 1952, 1953 and 1989. Doberman dog breed recognised by American Kennel Club in 1908 and since then they are one of the most popular dog breed due to their intelligence and agility. Even today the numbers of Doberman dog registrations are increasing.
Graf Belling v. Grönland: first registered Dobermann, in 1898.
Cappy, a Dobermann who saved the lives of 250 U.S. Marines when he alerted them to Japanese soldiers. Cappy became the first K-9 casualty, 23 July, when he was mortally wounded by a Japanese grenade. He was the first to be buried in what would become the war dog cemetery and he is the dog depicted in bronze sitting quiet but alert atop the World War II War Dog Memorial. Cappy, along with 24 other Dobermanns whose names are inscribed on the memorial, died fighting with the US Marine Corps against Japanese forces on Guam in 1944.
Ch. Rancho Dobe's Storm: consecutive Westminster Best in Show (1952, 1953).
Ch. Borong the Warlock: won his championship title in three countries, including 230 Best of Breed, 30 Specialty Show "bests," six all-breed Best in Show, and 66 Working Groups. He was the only Dobermann ever to have won the Doberman Pinscher Club of America National Specialty Show three times, and in 1961 five Dobermann specialists judged him Top in the breed in an annual Top Ten competition event.

It would be great if in the plain text-compare sessions I could have the lines word-wrap automatically. I'm stuck going to the end of the line and manually adding crlfs for both windows now, and it's quite tedious. I need to do it so often that I've created a regex in Notepad++ to create crlfs after a certain number of characters per line, but even that is pretty annoying to use.
I've seen this feature requested for BC2 in old threads. If it's possible, how do I do it? If not: please put my +1 on that feature request.
Love the product, have been using it for years. I'd post more on the forums, but there's not much to complain about!
Thanks for the feedback. We do not have a method of automatically line wrapping within the view and it is still on our wishlist. However, if you are inserting line breaks manually, we do have a method to do this: Go to the Tools menu -> File Formats, and select your specific format, edit the default, or create a new format (recommended), and in the new Text format's Conversion tab, you can set a Characters per line limit to auto-insert a line break at a specific limit.
This inserted line break is actual data and is not just for display. If you save the file, it will save with these line breaks inserted.
I did not consider that approach - it actually does do what I now do manually! Thanks a bunch, it works pretty well for me right now, as I can get away with setting it to 'Everything else' for my clipboard compare sessions. The feature would still be cool, but more on a nice-to-have basis now, as I'm fine with changing the file.
There are files that have a whole lot of text (sometimes entire text) "streamed" and "concatenized" on a single line. Doing a text or similar compare of them is tough.
Have seen this typically with JS/ JSON/ CSS files and some Chrome (example - Preferences - No extension) files.
How could I enforce your suggestion of New File type when file like this has no extension?
Is there some way to work through them? Word wrap or jump from one difference to next?
Apparently, this has been on wish list since 2005/ 2008/ 2013 and not been added?

Our file formats which perform a conversion will present the file in a tidied form, but this does 'add data' so any save would save in the new format. We don't currently support arbitrary wrapping of the display, but it is something on our wishlist. Our current design presents the files as they are in their native format, and also allows us to perform line by line comparisons very quickly, while the file is still loading to update the display, and open very large files. Adding the ability to wrap is on our radar, but isn't a small change to implement.
The file mask of a format could be defined to match on specific names, instead of using the "*.ext" convention. Or if no mask can be defined, you could load your files first using the defaults, then switch to the format for viewing using the File Formats toolbar dropdown menu (clicking the little arrow next to the Format button with the gear icon).
Is there anyway I can 'force' a "File type" for a file that has no extension when pulled in BC?
E.g. Chrome preferences files that are JS/ JSON files but have no extension.
PS: I guess JS/JSON is supported file type for Viewer/ Editor?
File masks aren't just for file extensions, it's a mask of the full filename, so you can match on name without extension. If the files have names like foo123, foo456, foo789, you can define foo*.* as the mask.
You can also click the Format dropdown below the left and right path edits in the Text Compare to force a specific file format.
@Aaron - any idea when this long awaited feature will be added? Is it planned for release within v4?
We've been pretty busy with a large variety of bug fixes, features, and 64bit support back-end. We have not been able to tackle this one and don't have a timeframe to announce. Text wrapping would probably require an extensive re-work of the Text Compare, which means it probably wouldn't make it into BC4.
With the new year, I'd like to reiterate that as another long-time user of Beyond Compare, text wrapping (for display, to read long lines) is by far my #1 most wanted feature.
The software is overall very, very good, but the lack of word wrapping really sticks out as a bizarre omission, from the user's perspective.
Maybe having a standard filter to convert text to sentences would be more achievable. For example remove all single paragraph & line markers then add line breaks at each sentence end character followed by a space (ie ". ", "? ", "! ").
I can't believe that there's still no word wrapping capability in BeyondCompare after all these years. It's also the #1 feature request for me.
Since it's not in 4.2 beta, it's safe to assume it's not in development. | 2019-04-19T16:31:22 | https://www.scootersoftware.com/vbulletin/forum/beyond-compare-4-discussion/general/12084-word-wrap-in-text-compare?view=thread |
