How Communists and Catholics Built a Commonwealth
Nathan SchneiderSeptember 07, 2017
According to the International Cooperative Alliance, the international association established in 1895 to promote the co-op model, "cooperatives are businesses owned and run by and for their members."
Boulder, Colo., is a town full of characters, and Richard Warner was one of them. Dr. Warner—a psychiatrist, anthropologist and transplanted Englishman, with ruddy cheeks and wavy hair—held a particularly zealous conviction that any patient with mental illness could recover and, further, that the best medicine is living as normal a life as possible. He could not tolerate any clinical ambition he perceived to be short of that. He wanted to care for people in a way that did not seem to add up, business-wise—at least until he borrowed an idea from Italy.
Dr. Warner died in 2015. His chief legacy is a company, Colorado Recovery, that provides services in the Boulder community to adults with serious mental illness. It is housed mainly in an office on a residential street, its Ionic columns and white fences tucked behind a pair of trees along the sidewalk. Some of the 150-or-so clients it serves in a given year live in a group home a short walk away. Other companies have wanted to buy Colorado Recovery over the years; some still call and make offers. But by the time of his death, Dr. Warner transferred ownership and control of Colorado Recovery to its employees, along with some families of its clients, who hold non-voting investor shares. The clients have a budget to design their own services. Dr. Warner knew that no buyer—whether an aggressive holding company or a well-intentioned nonprofit—would run it the way he had, so he turned it into a cooperative.
"It's a very unusual for-profit model," says Ruth Arnold, Colorado Recovery's chief executive officer. "It's not really profit-driven. We're charging as much as we need to survive."
Dr. Warner's widow, Lucy Warner, summarizes the model this way: "It's sort of where radical and duh come together."
Colorado Recovery's structure is an anomaly in the U.S. health care industry, but it was an outgrowth of something larger and older. Since the 1970s, Dr. Warner had been watching a kind of business model that was spreading across Europe, beginning in a part of Italy better known for its antiquities than its innovations, a place where this kind of shared ownership had become a common practice. Warner was trying to build more than a company in Colorado. He was after a commonwealth.
The Social Cooperative of Young Binders appears to be an ordinary print shop, housed in an office park in Imola, a town halfway between Bologna and Ravenna. Founded in 1983, it now does about $1.7 million in business a year, with services ranging from making copies to housing and cataloguing the archives of local manufacturing companies. Increasingly the company is getting into waste management as demand for printing on paper declines. More than two dozen workers depend on Young Binders for their livelihood; about half have disabilities that would make it nearly impossible to find work elsewhere. Many of those workers are also co-owners of the company. If you were to visit and ask who the disabled workers were, you would be shown the door.
In 1991 Italy passed a law to enable a corporate container for a kind of business that had been happening already for decades: cooperatives specifically designed to provide social services.
These "social cooperatives," according to the law, could come in two forms. The first consists of co-ops that provide public services, usually as a contractor for government welfare programs—like in-home care for seniors or childcare. These replaced profiteering private ownership and top-down state control by sharing control over these services between providers and recipients. The second form includes enterprises that employ and train people with a range of "disadvantages"—people like those with physical or mental disabilities, for example, or the incarcerated. These can look like Young Binders, or a trattoria in the Trastevere neighborhood of Rome run by the lay Catholic community of Sant'Egidio, or a monastery-turned | [

-guesthouse along a canal in Venice. When the painter Mark Bradford created his installation for the U.S. pavilion at this year's Venice Biennale art exhibition, he carried out what artists lately call "social practice" with a social cooperative through which local inmates grow produce and make crafts.
Both types of social co-ops need to be solvent businesses. They are not charities. But rather than maximizing profit, their purpose is to harmonize the interests of the stakeholders they serve. They can include in their ownership structures a blend of workers, patients, volunteers, investors and donors. The model has proliferated exponentially. Social co-ops have a dedicated statute in Italy, but they are not an isolated experiment. This is a country where the two largest grocery-store chains are cooperatives—one owned by its consumers, the other by local retailers. Co-ops also own Unipol, one of the largest insurers, whose modern skyscraper towers over Bologna's terracotta rooftops. In northern territories like Tuscany, Trentino and above all Emilia-Romagna, with Bologna as its capital, cooperatives organize the shape and tempo of the whole economy.
In part because of its culture of cooperatives, Emilia-Romagna has the highest median family income in Italy.
Co-ops there carry out activities as varied as construction, garbage collection and production of a best-selling brand of boxed wine. You can visit a showroom of sophisticated dental chairs at a worker-owned factory or buy bonds from a dairy co-op backed by wheels of its Parmesan cheese. Cooperative networks enable small- and medium-sized enterprises to remain dominant in a region that exports world-renowned food and automobiles. In part because of its culture of cooperatives, Emilia-Romagna has the highest median family income in Italy, with the lowest unemployment rate and the highest participation of women in the workforce. The early industrial radicals' dream of a fully democratic economy, a "cooperative commonwealth," is unusually alive and well there. And this came about because of two otherwise opposing factions: the Communists and the Catholics.
Northern Italy: Land of Co-ops
Most visitors encounter Emilia-Romagna as a place of narrow medieval streets, Baroque churches and Bolognese sauce. The trains run more or less on time, and the hospitals treat foreigners without fuss. One tends not to notice the politics at work behind it all. But the politics are interesting. It's a region that has been, since the late 19th century, a leftist stronghold.
Communists and socialists dominated the first national cooperative association, Legacoop, founded in 1886 in Milan, only 15 years after the unification of the nation of Italy itself. Catholics, searching for their own responses to the era's conflict between capital and labor, formed another association, Confcooperative, in 1919. Confcooperative later led the development of the social co-op model, while Legacoop feared that social co-ops would be a vehicle for privatizing state-run services. Today, however, the two organizations have come to regard their ideological differences as negligible. They have initiated a merger.
"The Berlin Wall doesn't exist anymore, but we in Italy realized it only recently," remarks Gianluca Laurini, a Legacoop official in Bologna. "Ideology aside, a co-op is a co-op."
A Call for Truth and Trust: The moral and economic vision of 'Caritas in Veritate'

The Associated Press is a joint media venture. Maybe Twitter should be too.
Nathan Schneider
At a time when the Catholic Church preferred monarchies over democracies, and when Communists were vying for their own absolutist schemes, in northern Italy both opted to back bottom-up businesses. There was no single blueprint. Some co-ops were banks owned by their depositors, some were stores owned by their customers, some were workshops owned by their workers. Communists did it for the liberation of the working class (especially through worker and consumer co-ops), and Catholics did it to affirm the dignity of all people (especially through credit unions and social services), but together they pushed a cooperative common | [

wealth further into everyday life.
The 1991 social co-op law is just one among several policy devices that Italian co-ops have designed for themselves. The national constitution itself has a provision, Article 45, that enshrines free, cooperative enterprise as a right—much-needed in the wake of Benito Mussolini, who regarded co-ops, rightly, as a threat to his Fascist regime. He dissolved both Legacoop and Confcooperative, and tried to replace them with a federation of his own, but after his demise they promptly reorganized and gained the political might to write their own rules. Cooperators from around the world now come to Italy to study these legal arrangements.
A law passed in the early 1970s, for instance, allows co-ops to hold tax-free "indivisible reserves," making it easier to raise capital from members. During the following decade, co-ops gained the ability to own and manage noncooperative subsidiary firms. A 1992 law required co-ops to contribute 3 percent of their surpluses—profits, in capitalist-speak—to their associations, for the sake of financing new co-ops and the growth of existing ones. The result has been an ever-more self-perpetuating system, a network of companies that aid each other's flourishing. While Colorado Recovery has had to struggle for survival mostly on its own, Italy's co-ops have one another.
The eminent scholarly exponents of the Italian co-op sector are Vera and Stefano Zamagni—a historian and an economist, wife and husband. Vera once served as the equivalent of lieutenant governor of Emilia-Romagna; Stefano was an architect of Pope Benedict XVI's economic doctrines, which more quietly prefigured Pope Francis' concerns for the environment and critiques of capitalism. Both teach at the University of Bologna, Europe's oldest university, founded in 1088 as a kind of cooperative among students who hired professors to teach them. When the Zamagnis talk about the origins of what modern Italian cooperation has accomplished, they start not with the 1948 constitution nor with the earliest Italian co-ops a century before that. They start with the Middle Ages.
Since then, says Vera Zamagni, "Italy has tried to substitute economies of scale with economies of network." The northern Italian districts where cooperation now flourishes tended to be, in an age of emperors and princes, republican city-states. From these came some basic features of the modern market economy—double-entry accounting, insurance, municipal regulation, professional guilds. The Zamagnis distinguish this "civil economy" from the capitalism that would emerge elsewhere in Europe to fund colonial expansion and exploitation.
The system of interlinked, human-scaled co-ops in northern Italy is a remnant of habits that date back to the vibrant, participatory city-state republics that governed the region in the Middle Ages. The comparative lack of co-ops in the southern part of the country, in turn, seems to reflect the monarchic rule that long prevailed there. When the political scientist Robert Putnam studied variations among Italian regional governments starting in the 1970s, he also noticed this correlation. "Mirroring almost precisely that area where the communal republics had longest endured five centuries earlier," he wrote, "the medieval traditions of collaboration persisted, even among poor peasants."
Touring an Italian cooperative.
According to the International Co-operative Alliance, the international association established in 1895 to promote the co-op model, "cooperatives are businesses owned and run by and for their members." This is part of the basic definition, recognized around the world, including in Italy. But in Italy one hears executives and boards also insist that their co-ops are not for their members—they are for future generations. They are for the community. One hears this from both the big-time manufacturing bosses and young back-to-the-land farmers. The members are stewards, like a family with an apartment in what was once a regal palazzo, like the people who sweep the tourists' trash at a Roman ruin. This sense of history has helped make Italy's co-ops among the world's strongest, but history also tolerates their contradictions, their tendencies to drift into oligarch | [

ic control or capitalist conformity.
"I rebuke them every day," Stefano Zamagni says. "When a cooperative loses its mission, it has no reason to exist." But he is patient. With time, even partial manifestations of the cooperative commonwealth help the ideals spread.
The canon of international guidelines and principles for co-ops can be deceptive; it seems to claim that there is a formula. Shared principles really just string together the cooperative habits that diverse peoples have carried with them and that they bring to the common challenges of 21st-century survival. Economy is a form of culture. This is why a Kenyan woman I know who works at the Vancity credit union in Canada could start a lending circle with fellow Kenyans, while the idea baffles her native-born Canadian friends—even those at the credit union where she works. They did not grow up watching their mothers go to lending-circle meetings, as the Kenyans did.
If members from small, radical and allegedly pure grocery co-ops in the United States were to go on a field trip to visit an Ipercoop in Italy, they would find a dilemma. Ipercoop is the largest kind of store in the Coop Italia system, a national chain resulting from decades of mergers among local consumer cooperatives throughout the country. It is not pure. Picture, on one end of a sprawling strip mall, a gigantic superstore with globalization's full variety of cheap, imported household goods beneath overhead banks of fluorescent suns. Employees, many of them part-time, are not especially well-paid or empowered in their workplace. Only 20,000 of nearly nine million consumer-members take part in meetings. But the in-house brands avoid controversial ingredients like G.M.O.s and palm oil, and suppliers—many of which are themselves Italian co-ops—must conform to certain codes of ethics in their labor practices. Things could be worse. But this is unapologetic consumerism, for a competitive price.
Would the visiting cooperators want this for their co-ops? Most probably would not. If it's our company, we'd like it to be pure. But purity means accepting the fact that in addition to shopping at our co-op we are probably also stopping by Target or Walmart for bulk necessities, or condescending toward our neighbors who do so. Ipercoop stands for the impure claim that if people are going to do gross consumerism anyway, they can at least not funnel the profits to investor-owners somewhere else; its consumer-owners can add the leftovers to their savings. They can manage their own compromises.
Fluorescent superstores are only the start of the contradictions in Italy's cooperative commonwealth. At the headquarters of Sacmi, an international manufacturing conglomerate near Bologna, one finds a prosperous machinery factory behind a pristine office building with its own museum. Sacmi is a worker co-op in which only about a third of the more than 1,000 eligible Italian workers are actually members. Among the company's dozens of international subsidiaries, the Italian worker-owners do not bother promulgating cooperative values or possibilities in any way. And this is one of the real co-ops—a dues-paying, upstanding Legacoop member. There are also tens of thousands of "false" co-ops in the country, firms that permit no oversight from the big associations and whose sole purpose is often to enable erstwhile employers to bypass workers' collective-bargaining rights. Even the storied social co-ops can play this kind of role. As critics feared, their rise has coincided with a long process of privatizing public services, enabling local governments to deliver services without paying government-level wages.
"Cooperatives have transformed into institutional loopholes," contends Lisa Dorigatti, a researcher at the University of Milan who has studied co-op labor markets. Even Pope Francis has noticed the problem. "Counter the false cooperatives," he told a 2015 Confcooperative meeting, "because cooperatives must promote an economy of honesty."
Today, the pioneering types of people who built Italy's cooperative movement a century ago are not necessarily flooding into co-ops. They are not attending Coop Italia's annual meetings or holding | [

out hope of becoming a Sacmi member. If they are organizing co-ops, they are often treating the required board structures as a legal formality and governing themselves more like an open-source software project—whether they are writing code or growing vegetables. They are forgoing co-op language altogether, speaking instead about "political consumerism" and "solidarity purchasing." Yet according to University of Bergamo sociologist Francesca Forno, "I think we are going back to the roots of cooperativism." They want something more cooperative than an Ipercoop superstore.
Insiders and outsiders alike frequently mistake cooperative enterprise for a utopian project. But it never has been that, or it never remains one for long. Constructing a commonwealth is not an instant cure. It is recovery.
We in the United States would do well to learn Italy's lessons.
Co-ops in the United States
We in the United States would do well to learn Italy's lessons. The list is growing of cities that have recently drafted policies to promote worker-owned cooperatives. New York has put several million dollars into worker co-op development; Madison, Wis., has passed its own co-op ordinance, and so have Austin, Tex., and Oakland, Calif. Cleveland, Ohio, has its struggling, but widely promoted, Evergreen Cooperatives, with businesses like solar retrofitting and an urban greenhouse; other cities have dispatched field trips of policymakers to visit them. The country now has a few shining examples of functioning worker co-ops, which beckon hope for more. Advocates are hoping to find candidates among the millions of Baby Boomer-owned businesses now poised to close with no succession plan. This past May, Bernie Sanders led a group of Democratic senators and representatives to propose ambitious federal legislation on behalf of worker ownership, part of the party's newfound appetite for progressive economic proposals.
I watch the news of these co-op developments closely. But when I first heard from Felipe Witchger, the young executive director of the Community Purchasing Alliance, I had never heard of him or his organization. And when I attended the group's last annual meeting in a Washington, D.C., school's multipurpose room, I realized what a lapse this was. (I delivered the keynote address at that meeting and was compensated for doing so.)
Seated around me were representatives of the 160 D.C.-area organizations—mainly churches and charter schools—that used C.P.A. for purchasing such unglamorous necessities as electricity, security, sanitation and landscaping. After three years in existence, the co-op had saved them nearly $3 million. (A woman seated next to me, a part-time church staffer, said she had cut out $17,000 on copier contracts alone.) Many of them were switching to renewable energy, and their purchase of 580 solar panels had already brought down the price of solar for everyone in the region. In the back of the room were staff members from a black-owned security company whose size more than doubled because of C.P.A. contracts. Witchger was talking with some of the group's contractors about converting their businesses to worker ownership. But worker ownership was only part of the commonwealth he and C.P.A. members were building.
A new generation has rediscovered cooperative enterprise in the United States since the 2008 financial crisis. Perhaps it is a kind of Marxist hangover that inclines us to believe economic change must always begin with labor. Take the popular left-wing economist Richard Wolff, who has become a leading co-op promoter through his writings, radio sermons and an advocacy organization called Democracy at Work. The locus of production is so important to him that he would reserve certain governance rights solely to "producer" workers, who physically make a given widget, over the "enablers," who answer phones, sweep floors and craft contracts and the like. This kind of laborist fixation does not do much to serve a post-industrial economy of increasingly automated production, permanent part-time, and peer-to-peer services over online platforms. It also inclines us to neglect how pockets of commonwealth might emerge from zones of economic life other than factory floors—from schools, from churches, from taking out the trash.

represented a miniscule proportion of the cooperative sector. (More than two million workers are part of employee stock ownership plans, but these offer little-to-no worker control.) Far more of the sector has consisted of formations like credit unions, consumer-owned electricity co-ops and business-to-business purchasing co-ops like C.P.A.—or Ace Hardware or Best Western. Part of what helped C.P.A. become so successful so quickly was that it built on this legacy, taking help from co-op veterans and existing co-op financial institutions. Even if one's goal is to build a new generation of worker co-ops, perhaps the best way to start is with other, more familiar kinds—kinds that come with history and muscle-memory and maybe even a replicable track record for financing.
The largest worker co-op back in Boulder, just up Broadway from Colorado Recovery, is Namasté Solar, a solar-panel installation company with more than 100 member-owners. It's a certified B Corp with an award-winning workplace culture and six weeks of vacation for employees every year. Since converting from a partnership to a co-op in 2011, it has been a thriving business, and it has no trouble finding investors willing to finance growth without demanding control. But its real, systemic effect has happened outside the worker-ownership structure. Also in 2011, Namasté first spawned a spin-off, Amicus Solar, a purchasing cooperative that helps small solar companies across North America stay competitive against large corporations. That, in turn, spun off a co-op that pools maintenance services. Now, the Namasté team is helping to create the Clean Energy Federal Credit Union, which specializes in loans for homeowners nationally who want to adopt renewables. One thing led to another.
When we know the diversity and dexterity of past models, they can help find creative new combinations for the present. The trouble is, the ideal and the unfamiliar tempt us more than the unfinished commonwealths of the past, whose salvation remains incomplete in ways we know too well. People long for new worker co-ops but forget to vote for their old credit union's board. Unlike capitalism's penchant for perpetual disruption, cooperation works best when it can work with what is already at hand.
Cooperators today neglect the local, unnoticed, compromised co-op legacies at their peril—the big, rusty cooperative grain elevators across the rural United States, or the big, ugly aisles of an Italian Ipercoop. These are achievements that can give the commonwealth of the future a head start and can help it cross lines of political party and social class. Small, pioneering experiments help new generations make the commonwealth their own. But we also need to build on what we already have, where we already are, even if that includes fluorescent superstores. If there is any democracy left in them, can't old co-ops be made new? Young cooperators can learn from this challenge. At the same time, the cooperative establishment needs to step up more to invest in and support new ventures, including risky ones. The future of their legacy depends on it.
If advocates for a commonwealth in the United States were to encourage not just worker co-ops but agricultural, utility, purchasing and credit co-ops as well, they would see their political base become drastically wider—not just Bernie Sanders, a longtime champion of worker ownership in Vermont, but Mike Pence also, whose base has included Indiana electric co-ops and credit unions. That kind of bridge-crossing can seem unpleasant in hyper-partisan times, but it is possible. If Italy's Catholics and Communists could unite around the practical work of building a commonwealth, perhaps Democrats and Republicans can, too.
If Italy's Catholics and Communists could unite around the practical work of building a commonwealth, perhaps Democrats and Republicans can, too.
Now, co-ops in Italy have to reach across an even wider gulf than simple political divisions. Social co-ops have taken a lead in employing and integrating new migrants from Africa and the Middle East, who have transformed the demographics of the country within a decade. As many as 100,000 migrants are now applying for asylum each year. The newcomers do not claim the same medieval inheritances that the | [

native-born Catholics and Communists had in common. Migrants are creating co-ops of their own now in Italy, bringing their cultures and habits with them. People seeking an inclusive, responsive economy must continually relearn the lessons of commonwealths past—to work with what they have and seek out the fullness of what they might share with one another.

I don't suppose it might be worthwhile to mention the millions of Catholics killed under communist regimes in the 20th century?
Not really, since these Italian communists and socialists didn't have anything to do with that—not any more than it is necessary to bring up the brutality of certain Catholic conquests in other times and places when discussing the Catholics here.
JR Cosgrove
since these Italian communists and socialists didn't have anything to do with that
It is communism and socialism that leads to dysfunctional economic organizations which then result in oppressive activities to counter worker reaction to these dysfunctions. Communism and Socialism can never work because they defy the natural law or human nature. Thus, they will always lead to oppression. So anyone who espouses socialism or especially communism must accept responsibility for what has happened when communism is implemented even if they themselves have been unsuccessful in implementing it locally.
So yes anyone who espouses communism must acknowledge that they espouse a system that leads to the slaughter of millions, over 100 million in the 20th century.
any more than it is necessary to bring up the brutality of certain Catholic conquests in other times and places
This is really an apples and oranges comparison. In one we are talking about a philosophy which has led to over a hundred million dead in just one century compared to some incidents that don't flow from the Catholic religion. Communism and socialism will always lead to oppression. I do not believe Catholicism leads to oppression and massive killing. Though some rulers who have self identified as Catholic have fought unjust wars that killed many or oppressed their subjects. But it wasn't Catholicism that led to this.
You might be specific when making such a statement especially in terms of numbers killed. And please do not bring up the crusades.
The headline should be
How Communists and Catholics Built a Commonwealth through the principles of Free Market Capitalism
As far as free market capitalism is concerned, how an economic entity is organized internally or financed is irrelevant as long as there are no special privileges or external pressures favoring it. When this is so, the cooperative is part of the free market capitalism system.
Mr Schneider keeps bringing up cooperative as if they are something unique and a more effective way of organizing economic activities. They aren't but some have certainly worked in some cases and are to be applauded when they do. But they are certainly not a cure for worker discontent or else we would have seen much more of them by now. No one is preventing a cooperative from forming.
Every organization is based on cooperation. One of the most competitive organization in todays modern world is the professional sports team and its success is based on extreme cooperation. But as we all know, some of the members are more valuable than others and are compensated accordingly.
Michael Basile
My take from Schneider's review of cooperatives developments and models is that grand ideologies can be laid aside to allow for experimental blendings of economic and social forms of enterprise. Historically, there are many successful precedents for such not only in Europe, but also in south and east Asia: e.g., Mondragon societies on the Iberian Peninsula, Grameen Bank loans to cooperatives in India and beyond, and Sarvodaya communities in Sri Lanka. There are more. Schneider advises that such models of cooperation can be initiated, supported, and encouraged by government policy as democratic models inspired to combine social with economic collaboration that derives from local circumstance and the drive to localize ownership with work. The point of cooperative enterprise is not to thwart capitalism by supplanting it with covert communistic subversion, but to rather afford communities and their enterprising members with opportunity to act together for | [

mutual support, benefit, and education. Doing so encourages initiative that can overcome the inertia that waits for government bailout or multinational corporate takeover.
Joseph J Dunn
Mr. Schneider's article brings us squarely to the dilemma faced by Aquinas and every pope and commentator on economic justice. If the ultimate destination of property is the promotion of the common good, then there must be some method for allocating some portion of today's property toward the promotion of the common good. The downfall of communist, collectivist, socialist societies lies in their focus on allocating the products of production among members, citizens, participants. The math is simple, the motivation pure, at least at first. There can even be economic growth, which can be achieved by simply increasing the population and raising production apace.
But that is not promoting—improving—the common good. For this, someone must allocate some of today's product (wealth) to development of new products and services. That involves risk, and possible failure. Committees are inherently risk-adverse. Majorities are formed only with slow and patient care, especially in new ideas. The collectivist model fails here, if it has not already failed to allocate among present constituents with absolute fairness and equality of result.
For those content with the status quo, collectivism is fine. But for those who hope for tomorrow's new medicine, or a more efficient energy system, better building materials, more drought-resistant grains, for better education tools—for some promotion of the common good—capitalism at least provides a method of saving and investing, and allocating for the risky experiments, for covering the cost of the inevitable failures and flops, for bringing new products and services to mankind.
Normally, I agree with most of what you say but the following is so far from the truth that I have to object
For those content with the status quo, collectivism is fine.
This assumes as Marx did that capitalism will reach a point where the technology and information is great enough that the society could coast on the current level of knowledge to live a happy life, While you rightly point out that there is always something better and the search for this will be shut down, what is not true is that the current level can be maintained.
It assumes that those who administer the state are disinterested and will selflessly govern in the interest of the many. This is so far from the case that the real fear is the power of government not because it will control our lives and remove our freedom. That it will do. But an more valid fear is that it will lead to massive disintegration of the society as market forces disappear and the selfishness of the bureaucracy favors themselves over the people. Witness Venezuela, once was the richest if not the richest country in South America.
There is an economic area called Public Choice Theory that covers this. E.g.
how politicians' and bureaucrats' self-interest, utility maximization, and other non-wealth-maximizing considerations affect their decision-making
One of the best ways of expressing this is in the ideas of Jerry Pournelle who just died last week. Jerry was known for his science fiction but was a prolific writer on many topics. He had a Ph.D in political science and formulated what is called "The Iron Law of Bureaucracy"
In any bureaucracy, the people devoted to the benefit of the bureaucracy itself always get in control and those dedicated to the goals the bureaucracy is supposed to accomplish have less and less influence, and sometimes are eliminated entirely
No where is this more visible than in current universities where administrative staff now out numbers faculty when at one time they represented about 10-15% of employees.

Originally from Blagovoshchensk, Russia, Emilia Schule was born on November 28, 1992, and is a Sagittarius by birth sign. She is a German citizen by nationality, having been born in Russia. She is an actor and a model, but she is perhaps best known for her depiction as Mila in the 2008 romantic comedy film "Freche Madchen," in which she co-starred with Selna Shirin Muller and Henritette Nagel and which follows three teens as they get embroiled in numerous love triangles. It was nominated for two awards and won one of them as well.
A German family raised Emilia, who was raised in Berlin since she was a child of one year old. She hasn't revealed anything about her family, including her parents and siblings.
Emilia has always had a passion for dance, and she started taking classes when she was eight years old. She primarily concentrated on ballet, street, and contemporary dance, and then, after turning 13, she participated in the programme Talents Getting Started, which assisted her in honing her acting talents and developing her confidence. Emilia went on to star in commercials for brands like as Deutsche Telekom, IKEA, and Arcor, and she later enrolled in a local high school after that. When she graduated from high school in 2010, she decided not to continue her education and instead concentrated on her acting career.
Emilia has featured in about 50 films and television shows to date, and we will discuss some of her most memorable performances in the next section of this article.
She made her feature film debut in 2006, as Madchen 2 in the short drama "Nichts Weiter Als," and has since acted in a number of German films, including "Guten Morgen, Herr Grothe," "Manatu – Nur die Wahrheit Rettet Dich," and "Freche Madchen." She is married and has two children. Emilia first came to public attention in 2009 when she appeared in the television drama "Gangs," which also featured Jimi Blue Ochsenkecht, Aaron Le, and Wilson Gonzalez and followed the lives of Lo and the gang Rox.

Q: Exception Unhandle System.IndexOutOfRangeException This code is about viewing a published consultation schedule. Unfortunately I'm stuck with the if statement. The error occurs at line : If dr("Lecturer") = ComboBox2.SelectedItem Then || I'm using a combobox to display the data from a database, which means there is a list of items in the combobox, and I will select any lecturer so it will display into the form. I have a database that contained the published schedule inside as shown at the pic. And all data stored in here(database) are actually unavailable(declared as red=unavailable, lime=available), except for the available does not stored into the database. So, what I'm doing now is to read and match the "Time", "Available" and "Lecturer" from the database, and change it to (red color) into the respective label(in lime colored).

Global e-commerce doubles as shoppers get more adventurous
Shoppers around the world are becoming a bit more adventurous and a lot more focused on buying what they're hunting for online, according to a Nielsen study.
Sharon Gaudin (Computerworld (US)) 27 August, 2014 02:40
Shoppers around the world are becoming a bit more adventurous and a lot more focused on buying what they're hunting for online, according to a new study.
The number of people who planned to shop online buying everything from toys to groceries to vacations this year has doubled since 2011, according to Nielsen's Global E-Commerce Survey.
"The lightning-fast pace of change in the digital landscape has ushered in a consumer mindset that is both adventurous and exploratory when it comes to online shopping," said John Burbank, Nielsen's president of strategic initiatives, in a statement. "Consumers everywhere want a good product at a good price, and the seemingly limitless options available in a virtual environment provide new opportunities for both merchants and consumers. The market for fast-moving consumer goods is no exception."
The study, which surveyed more than 30,000 consumers in 60 countries between February and March, found that consumers plan to increasingly shop online this year, particularly focusing on durables and entertainment-related categories, such as e-books, concert tickets, sporting goods and toys.
Of those surveyed, 46% said they intend to shop online in the next six months for clothing, while 48% plan to buy airline tickets and 44% are looking to make hotel reservations.
"I think this is good news overall that we are increasingly shopping online," said Patrick Moorhead, an analyst with Moor Insights & Strategy. "That says positive things about growing consumer trust and value delivered, but also about the technology, the economy and improved efficiencies in logistics and warehousing."
While it's no surprise that consumers have been increasingly buying items like electronic devices and books (paper and e-books) online in the past several years, the study shows that they're also branching out into buying different kinds of goods, such as groceries, online.
Nielsen, a global information and measurement company, reported that the online market for buying groceries and other consumable products, while not as strong as non-consumable categories, is starting to show growth.
Since 2011, global online purchase intentions for groceries rose 5 percentage points to hit 27% and baby supplies jumped 12 percentage points to 20%. The pet supply category doubled in two years, going from 9% in 2012 to 21% in 2014.
"What is interesting is the growth in groceries and pet supplies, the two areas exemplified as examples of excess in the Internet bubble," Moorhead said. "Groceries are promising because it shows two main challenges have been solved. First, there is more trust that the shopper will find the right fruits, vegetables, and meats. Secondly, improved economics through better distribution and warehousing and lower web costs make it more profitable to conduct this kind of business."
While the study also showed that computers -- whether desktops or laptops -- still are users' primary tool for online shopping, although mobile devices are coming on strong.
According to Nielsen, computers are the primary device for online browsing and buying among those surveyed in all regions of the world. Mobile devices are a close second for respondents in the Middle East/Africa region, with 55% of respondents there using devices for online shopping. That's 11 percentage points higher than the global average of 44%.
"The study shows the ascendancy of the mobile device as a primary device for e-commerce consumers around the globe," said Burbank. "The use of these devices introduces all sorts of questions for retailers and manufacturers alike. For instance, will consumers still make shopping trips -- buying a whole basket full of items at a time -- or will consumers shop throughout the day, one or two items at a time, shifting from retailer to retailer in the process? How will these potentially new shopping patterns impact age-old practices?"

Jarmark Świętojański – cykliczna impreza, organizowana przez Krakowskie Biuro Festiwalowe w Krakowie, na Bulwarze Czerwieńskim, pod Wawelem. Pierwszy Jarmark Świętojański odbył się w 2009 r., jednak obecny kształt przybrał rok później.
Znormalizowany czas trwania imprezy to 3 dni (od piątku do niedzieli), z wyjątkiem jarmarku z 2010 roku, który trwał 5 dni ze względu na odwołanie Wianków z powodu złego stanu Bulwarów Wiślanych, na których miały odbyć się koncerty. Założeniem imprezy jest przeniesienie uczestników w realia dawnej Polski. Członkowie grup rekonstrukcyjnych, rzemieślnicy i artyści przybliżają gościom jarmarku staropolskie zwyczaje. W latach 2010-2012 skupiano się głównie na tradycji średniowiecznej, od 2013 r. wprowadzono podział: pierwszy dzień jarmarku dotyczył wczesnego średniowiecza, drugi – późnego, a trzeci odnosił się do Złotego Wieku. W 2014 r. trzeci dzień jarmarku poświęcono XVI i XVII wiekowi. W 2010 r. Jarmark Świętojański uzyskał nominację w kategorii Wydarzenie plebiscytu Wielkie Odkrywanie Małopolski 2010. W 2011 r. wydarzenie cieszyło się największym zainteresowaniem.
Program
Program imprezy przewiduje wydarzenia różnego typu, nawiązujące do tradycji staropolskiej. Co roku są to: pokazy dawnego rzemiosła i sztuki wojennej, warsztaty taneczne, różnego rodzaju inscenizacje, zabawy edukacyjne dla dzieci i gry terenowe. Główną atrakcją każdego jarmarku jest konkurs na najpiękniejszy wianek, w którym można wygrać zagraniczną wycieczkę (w 2014 r. nagrodą była podróż do Disneylandu). Podczas trwania jarmarku, na Bulwarach Wiślanych otwarta jest tymczasowa karczma, dostępne są także kramy z żywnością, ręcznie wykonaną biżuterią, dawnymi strojami, bronią oraz sprzętami codziennego użytku, zabawkami i artykułami papierniczymi.
Innowacje wprowadzane podczas poszczególnych edycji Jarmarku Świętojańskiego:
2010 r. – podczas jarmarku zorganizowano 3 koncerty muzyki dawnej (zespoły Percival, Hoboud oraz Jacek Kowalski z Klubem św. Ludwika) w ramach zastępstwa za odwołane Wianki
2011 r. – zorganizowano po raz pierwszy pokazy konne; dodatkiem do wydarzenia były internetowe zagadki na oficjalnym profilu imprezy na Facebooku, opracowane przez Mariusza Wollnego, autora powieści Kacper Ryx
2013 r. – jarmark pierwszy raz gościł rekonstruktorów średniowiecznego kata i inkwizytora
2015 r. – po raz pierwszy na jarmarku odbyły się pokazy sokolnictwa
Jarmark Świętojański w mediach
Od samego początku organizowania jarmarku istnieje strona internetowa wydarzenia. Od 2010 r. zaczęto tworzyć specjalne spoty reklamowe, promujące Jarmark Świętojański. W tym samym roku przygotowano także pierwszą relację filmową. O duże | [

John's disembodied voice drifts down from the cliff above, and he cautions me that this next section of the climb is "delicate." With his English accent, it sounds like he's commenting on scones during teatime, but his use of the term engenders a sense of dread. I know that it shouldn't—delicate is normally reserved for such things as the aroma of a fine wine or the caress of a lover. As I cling to the vertical face on the southern side of Yamnuska Mountain, however, "delicate" stirs apprehension.
I lean back from the rock and glance down between my toes. Below, a few hundred feet of empty air end abruptly at the base of the cliff. How long does it take to fall such a distance? Do you have time to think, or is it just a sudden rush and splat? Maybe a crunch? Does your life flash before your eyes? Probably not, by the time your brain registers the disaster, you have already reached terminal velocity. In this case, terminal velocity is when you stop moving altogether.
Of course, I'm not going to fall. My feet, compressed into climbing boots so tight they would make a Lilliputian grimace, are firmly balanced on outcroppings of stone, and my fingers clutch generous handholds. From the harness girdling my waist, a stretch of rope winds across the rock then twists upward and connects me to the invisible John, who has me on belay at the top of the cliff. The rope passes through an anchor that is hammered into the mountain. It's bombproof. I'll need it if I fall, but I'm not going to fall.
Then again, the next section of the route is "delicate," so perhaps I should not feel quite so secure.
Earlier, John described a different stretch of the climb as "interesting." Naively, I had thought this was good: after all, I appreciate interesting things. Well, that minor crucible had my fingers trembling, forearms aching, calves cramping, and eyes stinging with sweat. Now, forty minutes later, John's seemingly innocuous pronouncement fills me with dread. My mother was English, so I am familiar with British understatement, and it's obvious that John is a practitioner of this rhetorical art. I imagine him emerging from a WWII bomb shelter, brushing the dust from his clothing and observing that the night had been "interesting." I can't imagine how bad "delicate" might be.
I lift my eyes from the void and focus on the cliff just inches from my nose. It's good rock—solid, dry, lots of places for feet and hands, really quite gentle for a novice climber like myself. The south side of Yamnuska is a vertical face of rock, but Gollum's Grooves—the route I am climbing, is much easier than it looks.
To be truthful, however, at the moment, I'm not climbing Gollum's Grooves; I'm stalling Gollum's Grooves.
But first, I have to get up Gollum's Grooves.
It was not supposed to be like this. My reason for coming to Calgary was to visit my friends Peter and Shannon and imbibe in just such a pub. I had no intention of trying my hand (or I should say, hands . . . and feet) at rock climbing, but I think Peter had other plans. He told me, innocently enough, that we had been invited to join some friends on a scramble up the back side of Mount Yamnuska (locals refer to it as Yam), which has a moderate slope and a breathtaking view.
Yamnuska is iconic. It sits just north of the Trans-Canada Highway on the eastern edge of the Rockies and intrigues passersby with an unbroken, nearly five hundred foot face of bright stone. If a giant had taken axe to rock and cleft a mountain, then taken one half away, the result would be Yam—a severed mountain. How cool to hike up to that summit.
Yamnuska also boasts one of the longest scree runs in the Canadian Rockies. Scree is the loose rock that often lies heaped at the base of cliffs. When you hike up a mountain, it's terrible, and you lose six inches of every foot | [

you gain. Coming down, however, it's glorious. With deep scree, it is possible to run down a mountainside in long, leaping strides where the rock gives way like soft snow. An hour-long ascent becomes a ten minute descent, and at the base of Yam there is an almost unparalleled run of perfect scree.
I could not resist such an invitation, and the next morning a small group of us drove out for the hike. When the sunlit face of Yam rose into view, Peter's friend, John, suggested that we climb the front instead of hiking the back slope. I observed regretfully that I did not have my climbing shoes with me. (I didn't even own a pair.) Nor did I possess sufficient courage or a death-wish. I thought I had slipped the noose, but after we pulled off the highway, John reached into the back of his van and drew out a weathered bag dusted white with climbing chalk. He unzipped it to reveal a half dozen climbing shoes that he kept as extras. Peter smiled innocently.
The summer sun is baking my back, and my energy is beginning to flag. Above, the cliff cuts sheer through the air; below, the face falls clear away. Ahead of me is the horizontal section that John has deemed "delicate." This is a traverse, and instead of climbing up, I must now move across. Where I need to go, the rock forms an oddly rounded shelf that protrudes like the brow-plate of a Neanderthal, and when I study it, I quickly realize that there is nowhere to put my feet. It's just a short span of rock, perhaps two metres, but the shelf thrusts into open air, and there is nowhere to put my feet.
I stare hard at the ledge, hoping some unobservable feature will manifest itself, yet my scrutiny produces no magical transformation of stone. What I see is all that Yam is going to give me. My hesitation is holding up the rest of the group, and I can stall no longer. I have to accept that there is nothing for it but to forge ahead and get past his ridiculously tiny part of the mountain.
I concentrate on my breathing and attempt to gather my tattered thoughts. Inhale deeply, exhale slowly, smooth out the shakes. Focus. Go forward. Go forward.
Bracing myself, I surrender my right handhold and extend a trembling limb out onto the curved ledge. This surrender takes some convincing: I am loath to give up the security, yet except for the sweat streaming down my forearms, the ledge is dry and purchase is good. The surface is rough enough that I will not slip. I point my fingers down toward the base of the cliff, and my weight rests almost entirely on my palm.
Time to commit. I shift my weigh forward a little, then loosen my grip on the mountainside and lower my other hand to splay upon the ledge. Terror constricts my breath and tightens my movements. Both hands are now planted. I take as steady and deep a breath as I am able, then I shift my upper torso above my arms and let my legs swing free. My climbing shoes hang above nothing but empty space.
All in all, it's a delicate situation.
Now that I am on the ledge, my only desire is to get across it. Up until this moment, when I have released one hand to reach higher up the mountain, my other hand and two feet have felt secure on the face—I have never had less than three points of contact on stone. Now, I have only two. My most powerful limbs hang uselessly, and I have no real handholds. My weight presses me onto the ledge, and it is gravity that holds me in place. Ironically, the force of nature I have been fighting all day is now my ally.
I quickly conclude the only way to proceed is to adopt a kind of stiff-armed shuffle across the traverse. I lean slightly to my left, and as my shoulders teeter off centre, I jerk my right hand an inch forward. It's not much, but it is progress, and I really don't have far to go. At least, I don't have far to go horizontally. I refuse to let myself consider any other direction. I am fervently thankful for the rope and the piton hammered into rock at the top of the cliff above.

DR. DAVID H. HORNE: Libya and the U.S., One Race Man's Perspective
Posted by TheBlackList on March 30, 2011 at 4:00pm
The Politics of Saying Yes When You Should Say No
David L. Horne, Ph.D. | OW Contributing Columnist
Practical Politics
I was, am and will continue to be a great supporter of President Barack Obama. That support comes from his stature as the first African American president and what that means to African descendants, and other people of color, all over the world.
It also comes from his style, grace, eloquence and record of accomplishment during 2008-2011. He has definitely made some major steps forward for both the United States of America in general and the Black American population in particular (please see Our Weekly, January 2011). He has promoted, advocated and signed significant legislation that will continue to benefit this country for years into the future.
But on the issue of the invasion of Libya, I have to stand and say, with all due respect, Mr. President, you are wrong. Not only did you make a very bad decision in this case, but to this point, it is the worse of your presidency. You were very ill-served by your principal advisors on this one, and this may be your Waterloo.
On what do I base this strong position? First, there is very little that the U.S. can gain by its involvement in this military exercise. Not only do we expend more money on another armed adventure, when money spent by this government is clearly a loud public issue, but we gain neither oil nor political leverage (a little more than 2 percent of America's oil comes from Libya) from the involvement.
In fact, we lose many more friends in the region, and you will be compared with Bush's recklessness and military gun-slinging.
Our president, as the Nobel Peace Prize winner, should now be expecting any day now a call from the Nobel Committee (remember Reggie Bush?) to return its award, and the insulting-our-intelligence reasons given for the invasion sound exactly like the lame prevarications used by others in getting America to invade Iraq.
From "We must take out his (Saddam's) weapons of mass destruction" to "We must protect civilians from harm by Gaddafi's forces," is but one short step sideways.
To save civilians, the U.S.-led invasion must kill a few hundred more civilians, right? And that's already started. This American involvement has nothing to do with saving civilians, and for a president to lie to both his supporters and enemies is not a good sign.
Many, if not most, of those civilians are armed. Even the television pictures of them have shown pistols, RPGs and AK-47s that they wave to the cameras. If we remember correctly, they brought down a Libyan jet fighter by themselves before the U.N. and NATO forces arrived, and one can't do that with bows and arrows or rocks.
This is not about Libya's high literacy rate, its free public education, its cosmopolitan-looking cities, its low infant-mortality rate, its high life expectancy (77.8 years), its allowance of Muslim women to be educated and have full-time employment, or its high standard of living (one of the top three on the continent) brought on during Gaddafi's tenure. That's actually irrelevant, as is the fact that the uprising in Libya was not over lack of food, housing, fuel or free healthcare. Libyans had all that. Compared to every other Muslim country in Africa and the Middle East, Libyans are not poor.
American citizens are not in danger in Libya (unless you count reporters who put themselves in harm's way to get a story). We can easily substitute another supplier for the amount of oil we get from Libya, and the price will not differ enough to matter. Libya is a member of OPEC, the body that controls from 67 to 75 percent of the world's known oil reserves, and there are plenty in that group ready | [

American involvement in Libya will not and cannot bring peace in that region, even if, heaven forbid, ground troops are committed, and we will have helped destroy the stability already there that's necessary for regular trade and commerce. There is nothing good that will come from this. Libya is really not our business.
Just as former President Bush and his homies did, Mr. President, you listened far too sympathetically to an anti-government lobbying group that lives and operates outside of its own country, in this case the NFSL (National Front for the Salvation of Libya) anti-Gaddafi-ists who live and work in Virginia.
During the Bush administration, it was the mysterious Curveball informant in Germany who basically lied to U.S. forces and got them pumped up for an attack on Iraq. The NFSL is no better. This group has gained your ear and filled it full of horrors about Gaddafi's tanks and planes smashing innocent civilians. Rebels are not innocent, Mr. President, and armed rebels are no longer merely civilians.
The fundamentalist Muslim Brotherhood is in the city of Benghazi, as are the Wahhabis and Bini Walids, who all oppose Gaddafi's interpretation of the Sharia and the Koran. There is a major quarrel going on there between Sunnis and Shiites, and Qadhafas (Gaddafi's tribe) and the Zawiyas. Some soldiers and members of government in these tribes have quit Gaddafi and joined the rebels, and the soldiers have generally kept their guns and uniforms.
Some of these are people who founded the Libyan Islamic Fighting Group based in Benghazi, which allies itself with al-Qaeda and who have, over the years, been responsible for the assassination of leading members of the Libyan revolutionary committees, the attempted assassination of Mr. Gaddafi in 1996, several massacres of dark Africans, and other activities.
This is not violence vs. non-violence. Britain and the U.S. have even recognized some of these East Libyan residents as terrorists and have frozen their assets and put them on watch lists. There is too much going on in Libya for us to be able to sort out friend from foe this quickly. At best, we can only shoot in the dark trying to tell the good guys from the ogres. That is way too much uncertainty for bombs to be dropped.
The city of Benghazi also gives the rebels control of major oil-producing equipment, with no promise that change will benefit the U.S. So why are we indiscreetly supporting regime change in a sovereign country? Libya's leader may indeed be polarizing and an irritating fellow, but is removing him worth the short- and long-term costs?
The no-fly zone is already a license to kill Gaddafi, so why are we involved in that? This is really too baffling and fallacious for a president who thrives on valid logical argumentation, and it looks at two or three levels, like we have gotten hoodwinked again into doing someone else's dirty work.
Already the Arab League is repudiating any involvement and refuses to supply any weapons or troops. The league will certainly not lead any anti-Gaddafi brigade but will quickly devolve into recriminations against the U.S. and the West for attacking and bombing Libya. This is a no-win situation for America.
And here's the greatest rub. In Afghanistan and Iraq, America has lost a great deal of blood and guts on the fields of battle. The primary aim, at least under the current administration, has been to beat back, destroy or fundamentally disrupt al-Qaeda. Mr. Gaddafi is a known anti-al-Qaeda head of state, and he has frequently rooted them out and expelled, jailed or killed them. Mr. President, your sending American troops to help the Libyan rebels may very well be nurturing and supporting the growth of al-Qaeda in Libya.
Mr. President, this is an internal Libyan Arab fight over tribal authority, factional religious domination and control of the resources from oil production. This is also a fight for preserving Italian, French and British oil interests in Libya. Already by March 2, Gaddafi had promised to expel Western oil interests and | [

replace them with Chinese and India oil producers. That did not mean America's interests. It meant Eni Oil (Italy's biggest oil company), Total Sa (French), and Repsol (Spain), as well as Royal Dutch Shell and BP (British).
Walk away, Mr. President. You said we'd be there a few days only. Mean it. That is your, and our, only hope now. Don't play the blackjack sucker 17 cards. The dealer usually wins those and takes your money and your dignity.
Walk away.

I too support Barack Obama, but to say that I agree with everything he says or does would be intellectually and morally irresponsible. By doing so, I would not be truthful and honest with myself and if anything, I must show allegiance to myself prior to anything or anyone else. (Selfishly, I owe ME first!)
When I heard Obama's speech, I was VERY disgusted! And I too thought that america's involvement in Libya was not about peace and thus Obama's valued Nobel Peace Prize should be returned.
President Barack Obama received the Nobel Peace Prize because of foreseen peace - a peace to come. I honestly believe that he would not have received such a prestigious award had they known that he would commit to ANOTHER endless war. Furthermore, to believe we would be present for a "short time" is absurd. Additionally, to believe that this is about democracy for Libya, hmm well that is just as foolish as our military involvement. It's about money, money and MORE money!
Look, I sincerely support applying aid to those who desire freedom, but this is civil war - class warfare - between the Libyans and Muammar Gaddafi's government and it does not require america's involvement. We cannot nor should not commit ourselves. For us to get enthralled in their fight would ultimately require us to be there for an extended amount of time, and america just cannot afford it. It's not just the commitment of financial and military resources, but our reputation would be further at stake.
This is Libya's fight for their freedom. America is free because it was fought hard by their forefathers; it was earned and thus the Libyans should do the same. ("People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf." We should not be those "rough men.")
If I were Muammar Gaddafi, I wouldn't resign any more if I were President of these divided states. The People of Libya are upset and americans are too, but who will come to our aid? The likes of The People in Madison, Wisconsin, that's who - our very own fellow americans.
Again, I support President Barack Obama, but I do not agree (support) his decision to get our military involved in Libya's fight. When the news first hit the air, I told myself that we would not get involved. (I was so certain) Boy was I wrong! And I feel in my heart of hearts that Obama is just as erroneous. His speech about war for peace is nonsense! How many times are we going to be reminded that a book written 62 years ago would have a reflection of what is going on today? "1984" was right! Our government manipulating our minds - controlling how we think. They want us to believe that bad is good, freedom is slavery, ignorance is strength and now so famously, that war is peace.
We were suppose to just "police the actions in Vietnam" but look what happened. Thousands of our soldiers were maimed and killed just as they were in Iraq. We didn't care one iota about democracy and/or communism. Nope, and we certainly do not care about us being a so-called "great nation | [

Flight VA240: Arianespace's second Ariane 5 launch for the Galileo constellation and Europe
For its 11th launch of the year, and the sixth Ariane 5 liftoff from the Guiana Space Center (CSG) in French Guiana during 2017, Arianespace will orbit four more satellites for the Galileo constellation.
This mission is being performed on behalf of the European Commission under a contract with the European Space Agency (ESA).
For the second time, an Ariane 5 ES version will be used to orbit satellites in Europe's own satellite navigation system. At the completion of this flight, designated Flight VA240 in Arianespace's launcher family numbering system, 22 Galileo spacecraft will have been launched by Arianespace with Soyuz and Ariane 5 launchers.
A final Ariane 5 ES mission will deploy four additional Galileo constellation satellites in 2018, after which Ariane 6 takes over from 2020-2021 – with its initial two Galileo launches contracted by ESA on behalf of the European Commission in September 2017.
The Flight VA240 will be from Ariane Launch Complex No. 3 (ELA 3) in Kourou, French Guiana.
The Launch Readiness Review (LRR) will take place on Friday, December 8, 2017 in Kourou, to authorize the start of operations for the final countdown.
Galileo is Europe's own global navigation satellite system. Under civilian control, Galileo offers guaranteed high-precision positioning around the world. Its initial services began in December 2016, allowing users equipped with Galileo-enabled devices to combine Galileo and GPS data for better positioning accuracy.
The complete Galileo constellation will comprise a total of 24 operational satellites (along with spares); 18 of these satellites already have been orbited by Arianespace.
ESA transferred formal responsibility for oversight of Galileo in-orbit operations to the GSA (European GNSS Agency) in July 2017.
Therefore, as of this launch, the GSA will be in charge of the operation of the Galileo satellite navigation systems on behalf of the European Union. GSA will be responsible for operating these satellites as soon as they separate from the launcher. Satellite positioning operations and system operation will be carried out in conjunction with ESA.
The Galileo satellites are built by prime contractor OHB System in Bremen, Germany, with the payloads supplied by UK-based Surrey Satellite Technology Ltd (SSTL), which is 99% owned by Airbus Defence and Space.

Home / Travel / How Much Does Annual Travel Insurance Cost?
If you can afford to travel multiple times per year, you can afford annual travel insurance costs. Travel insurance tends to cost between 5% and 10% of the cost of the trip. It's harder to estimate what percentage your annual or multi-trip travel insurance plan is going to cost, because people's annual travel needs have a high standard deviation.
On average, you can assume that Annual travel insurance will cost closer to 5% of the price of your combined travel expenses for the year, because of the "bulk rate" discount you get for buying combined travel insurance. Remember, annual travel insurance plans cost the same for the person traveling three times per year as once a month, due to the fact that the insurance plan will usually cover all travels in that year.
Maybe a better way to answer the question "How much does annual travel insurance cost?", I should show you some annual travel insurance comparative prices. Comparative shopping is a great way to learn where the good deals are and how much you should pay for an item or service. If you look at the premium price of one annual travel insurance company, you have no idea if that price is a bargain or an outrageous scam. But if you start to look at the prices for three or four other competitors and compare them, you'll begin to get an idea what the industry norms are. You can then sift through the prices and begin to tell which annual travel insurance costs are bargains, and which are a little too good to be true. Keep in mind to look not just at prices, but also the types of coverage you are buying.
Medevac annual travel insurance for one person of an average age (38) is currently $188 per year. This price covers $50,000 in medical expenses, has the option for coverage of "adventure sports" activities, emergency medical transportation costs for up to 2 persons in your family, $25,000 for accidental death and dismemberment (so you can pay for the funeral and such), with the standard travel medical assistance, emergency travel assistance, concierge services and identity theft restoration services thrown into the package.
Travel Rite annual travel insurance for one person of the same age is $261. This buys you $10,000 insurance in medical expenses, up to $100,000 in emergency medical transportation costs, $300 for lost, stolen, damaged baggage and travel documents, $200 for credit card protection, $150 for baggage delay and bag tracking fees, $25,000 for car rental collision coverage, travel medical assistance, worldwide travel assistance, and the option to add trip cancellation protections and trip interruption protection.

SCOTUS to Decide If Government Agencies Can Challenge Patents Under AIA
On November 29, 2018 By Scarinci Hollenbeck
The U.S. Supreme Court is poised to decide whether federal agencies can challenge patents under the America Invents Act ("AIA"). The case, Return Mail Inc. v. United States Postal Service, centers on whether the government qualifies as a "person" who may petition to institute review proceedings under the AIA.
Legal Background
Government agencies are treated differently with respect to patent rights. Under 28 U.S.C. § 1498(a),the government's unlawful use or manufacture of patented articles is considered a Fifth Amendment taking of a license, rather than patent infringement. The statute provides government contractor immunity from patent infringement litigation and limits the available remedies to monetary damages. The statute states, in relevant part:
Whenever an invention described in and covered by a patent of the United States is used or manufactured by or for the United States without license of the owner thereof or lawful right to use or manufacture the same, the owner's remedy shall be by action against the United States in the United States Court of Federal Claims for the recovery of his reasonable and entire compensation for such use and manufacture. . . . For the purposes of this section, the use or manufacture of an invention described in and covered by a patent of the United States by a contractor, a subcontractor, or any person, firm, or corporation for the Government and with the authorization or consent of the Government, shall be construed as use or manufacture for the United States.
Additionally, the AIA establishes a transitional post-grant review program that authorizes the United States Patent and Trademark Office ("USPTO") to review the validity of certain covered-business-method ("CBM") patents. Specifically, the USPTO may institute a CBM review upon the petition of "[a] person" who "has been sued for infringement of the patent or has been charged with infringement under that patent." The Supreme Court's review of Return Mail, Inc. v. USPS will center on the term "person," as used in the AIA, and whether it excludes governmental entities.
Facts of Return Mail Inc. v. United States Postal Service
Return Mail Inc. ("Return Mail") owns U.S. Patent No. 6,826,548 (the '548 patent), which claims a method for processing undeliverable mail. In February 2011, after trying unsuccessfully to license the '548 patent to the Postal Service, Return Mail filed suit in the Court of Federal Claims against the United States Postal Service ("USPS"). It alleged, under 28 U.S.C. § 1498(a), that USPS "engage[d] in the unlicensed and unlawful use and infringement of the invention claimed in the '548 patent."
In April 2014, the USPS filed a petition with the USPTO for CBM review of claims 39–44 of the reexamined '548 patent, raising several grounds for unpatentability, including patent-ineligible subject matter under § 101. In response, Return Mail argued that the USPS lacked "standing" to seek CBM review because it had not been "sued for infringement" within the meaning of Section 18 of the AIA. According to Return Mail, a suit under Section 1498(a) does not raise an infringement issue providing damages in tort, | [

as it is "an eminent domain statute" that provides a patent owner reasonable compensation for the federal government's taking of a patent license.
The Board rejected Return Mail's argument, holding that USPS's alleged "use or manufacture of a patented invention without license or lawful right" was "infringement" within the meaning of the Patent Act. After conducting the CBM-review proceedings, the Board issued a final written decision on patentability, concluding that the relevant claims of the '548 patent were drawn to patent-ineligible subject matter.
The Federal Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed. It held that, because a patent owner filing suit under Section 1498(a) must establish that the federal government "interfered with its rights by manufacturing or using the patented invention" without prior authorization, a suit under Section 1498(a) is an action for "infringement" as that term is commonly understood.
Although the parties did not brief the issue, Judge Pauline Newman opined sua spontein her Dissent that the government is not a "person" authorized to seek CBM review. The Majority addressed this point raised in Judge Newman's Dissent, reasoning that the issue was likely waived by the parties as neither party discussed the significance of the word "person." Additionally, the Majority examined the entirety of the AIA and determined that it does not use the term "person" to exclude the government.
Issue Before the Supreme Court
On October 26, 2018, the justices agreed to consider "[w]hether the government is a 'person' who may petition to institute review proceedings under the AIA."
Return Mail argues that only a "person" may file a petition to challenge a patent under the AIA. In support, it maintains that the definition of a "person" generally does not include governmental entities and that the AIA does not suggest a legislative intent to deviate from the norm.
In an amicus brief, 15 law professors further argue that the USPS is essentially trying to have it both ways by asserting the inherent power of eminent domain and claiming to also be immune from liability for infringement.
The Court has yet to schedule oral arguments in Return Mail Inc. v. United States Postal Service, however, a decision is expected before the end of June 2019.

Have you ever wondered what is happening when your baby sleeps? Why they make so many little noises or funny movements and then seem to be perfectly still (and you are literally holding your breath watching them breathe). Well, whether they are a newborn sleeping in your arms or an infant sleeping in their crib there is a distinct process happening as they snooze—the baby sleep cycle.
Just like their little brains and bodies, with time, the structure of the baby sleep cycle changes to be the same as an adult sleep cycle and that is what we are going to talk about in this article.
To understand baby sleep cycles, it is useful to see them juxtaposed to your own sleep cycles. As an adult you experience sleep in cycles that are about 90 to 120 minutes long. These cycles contain two different phases, one called rapid eye movement (REM) sleep and the other called non-REM (NREM) sleep. NREM sleep is further broken down into stages which I describe in detail below.
Adults initially cycle through the NREM sleep stages. These stages take them from light to deep sleep, then go to the beginning of deep sleep again and then they move onto REM. Once an adult has gone through a whole sleep cycle they either wake up or come close to waking up and then start the cycle over again until their alarm, dog, toddler, or baby wakes them up in the morning.
As promised, let's talk about the different NREM sleep stages. NREM sleep consists of 4 stages which go from very light to the deepest of sleep. Stage 1 is a very light sleep where you can feel yourself nodding off and if you were woken up you would say you hadn't fallen asleep at all. In stage 2, it is still relatively light sleep but is described as the first "true sleep" stage where upon waking you would realize you were actually asleep. Stage 3 is the beginning of deep sleep and during this stage our body grows and heals.
Stage 4 is the deepest stage of sleep, sometimes called slow-wave sleep. It is very hard to wake someone up who is in deep sleep and if they are woken up during this stage they tend to be very drowsy.
After going through all 4 stages of NREM sleep, your body goes back into Stage 3 for 10 minutes and then into REM. REM sleep is where most dreams occur, the brain consolidates information, forms memory and releases serotonin. A fun fact about REM sleep is that while the mind is very active here, the body is not, in fact adults experience muscle atonia (essentially paralysis) so we can't act out our dreams. As adults cycle through sleep at night we naturally wake a few times but generally, we aren't able to recall those wake-ups and if someone asked us about them the following morning we wouldn't know they occurred.
In contrast to adults, most babies have sleep cycles that last about 30 to 50 minutes and lengthen to about 90 minutes when they reach adolescence. Even before birth, babies are sleeping! Around 25 weeks gestation a baby will be sleeping 16 to 20 hours a day. In utero, REM sleep appears first and then a month later (about 8 months gestation) NREM follows.
After birth, a newborn baby still only experiences those two stages of sleep per cycle. Their NREM sleep is often referred to as "quiet sleep" and their REM sleep is also called "active sleep". Upon falling asleep, newborns immediately go into REM sleep. Unlike older babies and adults, newborns don't experience muscle atonia so during REM sleep they twitch, smile, make noises and breathe irregularly (actions which are often perceived by parents as waking up).
After "active sleep" they transition to "quiet sleep" where they breathe deeply and lie still (actually "sleeping like a baby"). Newborns spend about half of their sleep cycle in REM sleep and then the other half in deep sleep. Between three and four months of age babies experience a permanent reorganization in the architecture of their sleep cycle.
Most parents know this event as the infamous four-month sleep regression. Here they gain two more sleep stages, Stage 1 and Stage 2, both of which are lighter than REM sleep. In order to accommodate two more stages their sleep cycle shifts from being made up of 50% REM sleep to | [

29/09/2009 / Test All Things
A Study Of Psalm 119:32
Preached at Zoar Chapel, London, on August 10, 1845, by Joseph Philpot
"I will run the way of thy commandments, when thou shalt enlarge my heart."
I was endeavoring to show on Thursday evening a connection between the precept and the promise; and I observed that, whenever the precept and the promise are linked together, if we are enabled to perform the precept, God is sure to fulfill the promise. But there is a connection of another kind between them–that namely between the precept itself, and the power to perform it. The word of God is full of precepts, but we are totally unable to perform them in our own strength. We can no more, without divine assistance, perform the precept, (that is, with a single eye to the glory of God, from heavenly motives, and in a way acceptable to the Lord), than we can, without special power from on high, believe on the name of the only begotten Son of God. We need a extraordinary power to be put forth in our hearts, a special work of God the Spirit upon the conscience, in order to spiritually fulfill in the slightest degree the least of God's precepts. The way in which we perform the precept, when we do perform it at all, is set forth in the words of the text, "I will run the way of your commandments, when you shall enlarge my heart."
In taking up the subject this morning, I shall endeavor to unfold it according to the two clauses of the text; but in so doing I shall invert their order; and, with God's blessing, I shall endeavor, first, to trace out the mind and meaning of the Spirit in the words, "When you shall enlarge your heart;" and, secondly, "I will run the way of your commandments."
Before we come to examine the subject closely, it will be desirable to give a little explanation of two points– What is intended by the Holy Spirit by the expression "heart;" and, as things are best seen by their contrast, to explain what it is to have a 'contracted heart', in order that by the contrast we may understand the better what it is to have an 'enlarged heart'.
By the word "HEART" in the Scriptures, the Holy Spirit means more than one thing. Sometimes, for instance, He means by it that corrupt, depraved principle, which we derive from Adam. "The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked." (Jer 17:9) God saw "that every imagination of the thoughts of man's heart was only evil, continually." (Ge 6:5) "A heart," Solomon says, "that devises wicked imaginations." (Pr 6:18) In all these passages, the expression, "heart," means that corrupt nature which we derive from a fallen progenitor.
There is another signification which the Holy Spirit has attached to the word, which I may define in one short sentence, "the feelings of the soul Godwards." It is, therefore, sometimes taken for the understanding. Thus we read, that God gave Solomon "largeness of heart, as the sand upon the sea shore." Here it means wisdom and understanding. Sometimes it means affections, the tender affections of the soul, as in numerous passages where David speaks of his heart "inditing a good matter," "panting after the Lord; rejoicing in his salvation," or else sorrowing, mourning, or cast down. And sometimes, it signifies conscience, as where God said of Josiah, "Because your heart was tender." 2Ki 22:19
This heart, then, or new nature, is susceptible sometimes of contraction, and sometimes, as divinely wrought upon, of expansion. The heart of a child of God, viewed spiritually, is a tender exotic; it is not a hard, rough, native plant, that stands every storm, which no frost nips and no drought burns. It is a foreign exotic plant; for it comes down from heaven, the abode of eternal purity, and dwells in a man's bosom, with all the tenderness of a plant from a warm country. Now these tender feelings Godwards are susceptible of contraction. They resemble a hot-house plant. Open the windows, expose it to the chilling blasts of this cold, inclement, northern climate, it shrinks | [

, the tender buds refuse to expand, and the whole plant droops and dies. But let the windows be closed; let the bright sun pour his warm rays through the glass roof upon it, and the same plant, which so contracted, shriveled, and withered away under the blast, opens its tender bosom and sends forth its sweet fragrance. So with the new-born soul. There is that which shuts it up, and that which opens it; that which makes it shrink sensitively into so small a compass as scarcely to be seen, and that which draws it forth and causes it to send abroad its heavenly odors.
We will look then, with God's blessing, at some of those things that contract, sicken, and shut up the heart, before we look at the causes and nature of what expands and enlarges it. The new heart of grace is exceedingly tender. And therefore there are many things that will cause this tender heart to shut up and contract itself.
1. One is GUILT. Whenever guilt lies upon a man's conscience, it shuts him up altogether in his feelings Godwards; it narrows, it contracts his heart. There is no room in his soul for divine enjoyments; there are no divine consolations shed abroad, no in-shinings of divine light, no incomings of heavenly love.
2. Another is UNBELIEF. O what a narrowing, contracting, and shutting-up power is there when unbelief works powerfully in a man's carnal mind! How the tender plant of faith shrinks into a small compass before its chilling blasts! How unable then are we to receive the truth in the love of it–unable to act upon the perfections of the Lord of life and glory–unable to come forth into the light of His countenance–unable to enjoy any one testimony of His manifested favor–unable to realize a single mark, or testimony of the grace of God being in the heart!
3. DARKNESS OF MIND is another thing that contracts and shuts up a man's heart Godwards. Many flowers, when night comes on, hide themselves as it were from it; their petals gather up and close over the bosom which, during the day, expanded itself to the warm rays of the sun, defending it from the cold dews and chilling breaths of the night. So spiritually. How darkness of soul (and all the Lord's people are brought to mourn and sigh under felt darkness) contracts the heart! How it closes up every gracious feeling! How it checks every going forth of the soul in the actings of faith, hope, and love! What a veil it spreads over the hidden man of the heart! So that there is nothing good or gracious apparently in exercise.
4. DEADNESS, COLDNESS, TORPIDITY OF FEELING GODWARDS, that wretched state in which many of God's people are so continually– how this shuts up, contracts, and narrows the heart Godwards! How unable a man is in this dead, cold, torpid state, to enlarge his own soul! Does he attempt to pray? He has no power to pour forth a single desire. Does he attempt to read? He can scarcely get through half-a-dozen verses without wandering. Does he come to hear a Gospel message? There is scarcely anything that even his outward ear receives. He is unable to fix his thoughts and affections, unable to realize the presence, love, and power of God in his soul. Does he attempt to converse on spiritual things? He has scarcely a word to say, shut up in his feelings toward the family of God, shut up in his feelings toward the Lord Himself.
We must know by painful experience what it is to have these narrow, contracted, shut-up hearts, that we may by the contrast know what it is to have an enlarged, expanded heart. We cannot know the one except by knowing the other. It is this miserable feeling of contraction, which makes us know the difference between these painful sensations, and of an enlarged, expanded heart.
This leads me to enter more fully into what it is to have an enlarged heart. What is the meaning of the word 'enlarged'? The idea is this–the making of an opening, so as to give a wide space. Thus, the Lord promised to the children of Israel that He would "enlarge their border;" that is–He would give them more ample room; that they should not be confined to a narrow | [

space in which their population should exceed its limits; but that He would so extend their boundary as to give them ample width for their increasing numbers! Thus the word conveys the idea of an expansion, a removal of all that is narrowed up and contracted, by giving a wider coast–a more expansive border.
Now none but the Lord Himself can enlarge the heart of His people, can give them spiritually what Jabez prayed for "O that you would enlarge my coast!" 1Ch 4:10 None but the Lord can expand their hearts Godwards, and remove that narrowedness and contractedness in divine things which is the plague and burden of a God-fearing soul.
Having seen what is meant by an enlarged heart, let us look at the ways whereby God is pleased to enlarge it.
1. It is BY THE SPECIAL OPERATION OF GOD THE SPIRIT UPON THE SOUL that there is ever felt any enlargement of heart Godwards. For instance; when he applies any portion of His word with power, that enlarges the heart; "the entrance of your word gives light." The very nature of divine light is to expand the heart into which it comes. As darkness shuts up, so light opens; as darkness freezes, so the word of God sealed with power melts. "He sends out his word, and melts them." Ps 147:18 Truth revealed to the soul has a liberating power. "You shall know the truth; and the truth shall make you free."
2. A SENSIBLE REALIZATION OF THE LORD'S PRESENCE enlarges the heart. When the Lord is absent, when He hides His lovely face, when He does not draw near to visit and bless, the heart contracts. There is no going out to Him, no coming down of sweet communications from Him–the heart is shut up in itself, contracted in its own narrow compass. But when the Lord is pleased to favor the soul with His own gracious presence, and bring Himself near to the heart, His felt presence opens, enlarges, and expands the soul, so as to receive Him in all His love and grace.
To use a figure I have before alluded to, the heart is often like a flower beaten down by the rain, prostrated by the wind, over-filled with moisture, overpowered by the dews of the night, unable to lift itself up, dropping downwards, with all its petals contracted. But let the sky clear up, let the beams and rays of the glorious orb of day shine forth, the flower, whose petals before were closed, expand themselves to receive the warmth of the mid-day sun.
So it is with the God-fearing soul. When the dew of night rests upon it, when darkness covers, when the cold blast beats, when the rain drifts upon it, there is no unfolding, no enlarging. But when the Sun of Righteousness breaks forth, the drooping heart then expands all its bosom to the warm rays, and lifts its bending head, which before had been sunk down by the cold mists.
3. THE UNCTION, SAVOR, AND POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, whenever felt in the soul, produce an enlargement of heart. The absence of the dew of the Holy Spirit leaves the heart shut up in its own darkness. But when dew, savor, and power rest upon the soul, they immediately by their secret, penetrating, unctuous influences expand and enlarge the heart; they soften its rigidity; they melt down its harshness. Whereas before it was narrowed and contracted, so as not to open itself to any one divine feeling; no sooner does the softening dew and melting unction of the Holy Spirit touch a man's heart than it enlarges, opens, melts and expands itself before the Lord.
I have hinted that the word "heart" in Scripture has more than one signification. Sometimes it means understanding, sometimes conscience, and sometimes the affections. Now whenever the heart is enlarged by the internal operations of God the Spirit, it is enlarged in these senses.
1. THE UNDERSTANDING IS ENLIGHTENED; we read, "Then opened he their understanding that they might understand the Scriptures." Lu 24:45 And we find David pleading earnestly, "Give me understanding and I shall live." | [

Ps 119:144 It is a great blessing to have an understanding heart; not to be tossed to and fro with every wind of error; not to be caught with every delusion of Satan; but to have a sound mind, established in the truth as it is in Jesus. But when the Lord is pleased to enlarge the heart, He opens the understanding; He gives an insight into the Scriptures of truth; He shows us the mind of Christ; He brings a sweet light into our soul, whereby we read the Scriptures with the same light and in the same spirit by which they were inspired. Thus we enter into the meaning of passages we never knew before; we understand mysteries, which before we were unacquainted with; we feel our minds to open, expand, and receive the truth as it is in Jesus in greater simplicity and godly sincerity.
2. But there is also AN ENLARGING OF THE CONSCIENCE. If our heart is contracted, our conscience is not sensitive nor tender. Have you not observed, that when your mind was contracted, your affections toward God cold and dead, that your conscience was not sensitive, that sin was not that burden to you as at other times–that you could play with it, walk upon the borders of it, venture upon forbidden ground, dally with evil, did not feel this and that thing to be inconsistent with the will and word of God, which you felt to be so at other times?
Now when your heart has been enlarged, when your soul has felt the power and operations of the Spirit, your conscience becomes more sensitive–as it is said in Isaiah of the human nature of Christ–"of quick understanding in the fear of the Lord." Sin is more seen to be sin; evil is comprehended in things where we did not see it before; the "exceeding sinfulness of sin" is more deeply felt; the worldliness and carnality of others that did not much affect us when we were cold and dead, now that we are under the in-shinings of God the Spirit, become irksome and burdensome. Thus, as the understanding is enlightened to see, the conscience is made more sensitive–as we get a deeper insight into the Person, work, and blood of Jesus, the conscience takes a wider range, and is made more alive and more tender than it was before.
3. Besides this, there is AN ENLARGEMENT OF THE AFFECTIONS. Our affections will waver in the same way as our understanding and our conscience. When our understanding is dark, and our conscience is hard, then our affections are cold; but when the Lord is pleased by the entrance of His word to give light in our understanding, and to make the conscience more tender and sensitive, then there is an enlargement also of the affections.
Have you not felt at times as though you had not a single grain of love towards the Lord of life and glory? Has not your heart often been as an adamant, which neither judgment nor mercy, threatening nor love could move? And have you not been, when in that state, unable to love God's truth or His people–yes, rather felt your heart filled with the most fearful hardness, and enmity towards them? But when the Lord is pleased to enlarge the heart, these affections, which before had been shut up, expand, breathe themselves forth, and flow out and flow into the Lord of life and glory. There is a clasping Him in the arms of tender affection, and a desire to live and die in His embrace.
4. When God enlarges the heart He ENLARGES EVERY GRACE AND FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT.
For instance. There is FAITH. Faith in the soul sometimes sinks down to the very lowest ebb; there seems at times to be scarcely one grain of it left. We have not a single spark of faith in living exercise. The hand which should take hold of Christ's strength is as if paralyzed; there is no putting it forth to receive strength out of His gracious fullness. But when God the Spirit, by His secret power and unction enlarges the heart, He enlarges faith–as the Apostle says. "We are bound to thank God always for you. brethren, as it is fit, because your faith grows exceedingly." 2Th 1:3
This is an enlargement of faith; and just in proportion to the enlargement of faith, do we take in the object of faith. When our faith is very weak, it is like the hand of a little child. Its | [

tiny fingers can only grasp little objects, and can scarcely hold them when grasped. So when faith is small it is unable to take hold of great things; and if it takes them, it is unable to hold them. But when the hand of the child is increased to the brawny fingers of a man, then the same hand, which before was unable to grasp little substances is now enabled to lay hold of great burdens.
So with faith in the heart; it is in some as the hand of the child, it is in others as the hand of the grown man. The hand in the one case is weak, in the other strong. But the hand of the child differs only in size and strength from the hand of the man. When then the Lord enlarges the heart, He enlarges the fingers of the hand; as we read of Joseph, "His bow abode in strength, and the arms of his hands were made strong by the hands of the mighty God of Jacob." Ge 49:24 So when the Lord enlarges the heart, He enlarges the sinews and muscles of living faith, and presenting Christ before it, enables it firmly to embrace His Person and work, His atoning blood, His justifying righteousness, all that He is and has for God's poor needy family.
So also, when God enlarges the heart, He enlarges HOPE. Anchors, you know, are made different sizes. You may walk in the Queen's dockyard, and there you may see anchors for a small row-boat, and anchors for a three-deck ship. Yet all anchors are made in the same way, and are designed for the same purpose; and the little anchor that holds the boat is as useful and as much an anchor as that which holds the three-decker.
So spiritually. There is hope in the heart of the babe. But the hope in the heart of a babe is but as the anchor of a small row-boat; yet it holds that babe as firmly as the anchor holds the boat to which it is moored. But as the Lord increases hope, He increases the size of the anchor; and as the vessel and its anchor always bear a proportion to each other, so when He enlarges the size of the anchor He increases the size of the ship. No more, as He increases the size of the ship, He increases its cargo–for these two are proportionate. He increases a man's trials, perplexities, difficulties, and sorrows. And thus, ship, anchor, and cargo are all enlarged together.
Thus, when He enlarges the heart He enlarges a man's hope–it takes a more vigorous hold within the veil; it enters more deeply into the presence of God; it takes a firmer grasp of covenant engagements, electing love, the immutability of God's purposes, and the unchangeable nature of the great eternal I AM. Have you not felt at times your hope sweetly enlarged, so that it almost attained to the "full assurance of hope?" Scarcely a cloud remained between you and God; and you believed you would ride triumphantly into the haven of bliss and peace? and having these blessed sensations in your heart, you could part with life itself at that moment to fall into the embrace of your God. Now this was a sweet enlargement of your hope.
In the same way when the Lord enlarges the heart, He enlarges its LOVE towards Himself and His people. How cold are our hearts too often toward the Lord! and, as a sure and necessary consequence, how cold towards the brethren! Sometimes we seem even to dislike their company; and if we see them coming down one street, we would gladly take another turning in order to avoid them.
How averse also, from the Lord's ways! How cold in prayer, cold in reading, cold in hearing, and cold in doing anything to the glory of God! How backward, how opposed to everything holy, heavenly, and spiritual! But when God in mercy enlarges the heart, He also enlarges the affections to love the Lord, to love His word, to love His people, to love all that savors of the precious name of Jesus.
There is also an enlargement of the MOUTH. "My mouth is enlarged over my enemies, because I rejoice in your salvation." 1Sa 2:1 It is out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. "The heart of the wise teaches his mouth, and adds learning to his lips." Pr 16:2 | [

3 When your heart is contracted, when your soul is shut up, when your affections are chilled, there is no enlargement of the mouth, especially if you have any tenderness of conscience. Hypocrites and dead professors can talk about 'mere religion' at all times. "But a prating fool shall fall" whereas the Lord's people are often shut up, and have not a word to say upon divine things. If there be no sweet enlargement of the heart, there is no enlargement of the mouth; and when there is no life nor feeling in the soul enabling it to speak of the things of God, to speak of them at all is but a burden to them. But when the Lord enlarges the heart, then there is an enlargement of the mouth. The lips speak freely, simply, with savor, dew, and unction, of the things that God has done and is doing in the soul.
There is also an enlargement of the STEPS, as David says. "You have enlarged my steps under me, that my feet did not slip." Ps 18:36 This is a strengthening of the feet, so that they are enabled to take longer steps. Sometimes from weariness we stumble, or can scarcely drag one limb before another, or get so faint and tired that we seem unable to move one step further in the ways of God. But when the Lord enlarges and strengthens a man's feet and steps, He enables him to move more actively forward, and to run more eagerly in the way of His commandments.
This leads me to the second part of the text, the connection of the PRECEPT with the POWER given to perform it. "I will run the way of your commandments when you shall enlarge my heart." David was no legalist–he was no Arminian perfectionist; he was not drawing upon the strength and wisdom of the 'creature', but he was looking up to the Lord to work a certain work upon his soul. When that certain work was wrought upon him, then, and not until then, would he, or could he perform the precept.
How often have you seen the precept handled in the way of which the Lord speaks as done by the scribes and Pharisees of old! "For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers." Mt 23:4 Nothing is more easy than to take a bundle of precepts into the pulpit, and tie them round the necks of the Lord's people like an iron collar. But how many of them does the minister himself perform?
Every child and servant of God, taught by the Spirit, knows that he cannot perform one precept except as the Lord enlarges his heart. This deep sense of our helplessness does not foster sloth, nor lead to licentiousness; for guilt and condemnation are felt from the non-performance of the precepts; and our desires and prayers, when we are in our right mind, are, that the Lord would enlarge our heart, for we love to run the way of His commandments.
WHAT are these commandments? And HOW do we run in the way of them? I will endeavor to show you.
The Lord in His word has given several commandments; and these commandments we perform when the Lord enlarges our heart. For instance.
1. The Lord commands us to BELIEVE in the name of His dear Son, as the Apostle John writes, "This is his commandment, that we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ." 1Jo 3:23 But we cannot believe in the name of Jesus, any more than we can make a world, until God enables. Believe in Jesus! receive Him by precious faith into my heart! feel the efficacy of His atoning blood in my conscience! bathe my blissful soul in the sweet enjoyment of His dying love! I do this? Before I can, of myself, do this, I must be able to say, "Let there be light, and there shall be light."
But when the Lord by His grace and Spirit enlarges the heart; when He drops His dew, unction, and savor into the soul; when He draws near to it, and makes it draw near to Him; when this blessed Sun of Righteousness shines forth through the dark cloud, and warms the cold dark soul, then it can no more not believe in Him, than before it could believe in Him | [

. We can no more refuse to believe when faith comes into the heart, than we can believe before faith does come. When God enlarges the heart, and draws forth the affections, then we run in the way of this commandment. We do not believe as a duty; we do not believe as a precept; nor do we believe even as a privilege. But we believe as a blessing. We believe as we see an object with our eyes. We open our eyes, and we cannot but see. So when faith opens its eyes, it sees Jesus; no, it cannot but see Him.
2. Another commandment is, to REPENT. "God commands all men everywhere to repent." What! repent! Have the heart broken with contrition! feel godly sorrow! experience the flowings forth of grief towards a crucified Lord! Can I do this? It is utterly beyond my reach. I may shed crocodile tears. I may work myself up into fleshly excitement. I may fall upon my knees, lacerate my back, refuse to eat my food, and lie upon the ground. But to feel a broken heart, melted down into compunction and godly sorrow–the man that feels what an adamant stone he carries in his bosom knows well that it is the pure grace of God alone that can give him repentance.
I believe the Lord brings all his people to that spot of which Mr. Deer speaks–when the question was not whether he would repent, but whether God would give him repentance; no longer whether I will do this for the Lord, but whether the Lord in mercy and grace will do this for me. The great I sinks then into absolute insignificance; and the creature is brought down to its true spot-abasement and helplessness.
But when the Lord enlarges the heart, with this enlargement is there not the grace of penitence? Is there not the tearful eye, the convulsive sob, the inward grief of soul? Is there not real gospel repentance and sorrow felt in a broken and tender heart? I am sure there is this.
3. God commands us "to LOVE one another." "A new commandment I give unto you, that you love one another." Can I of myself feel this love? I may pretend to do so; I may do as one of old did, who came to his brother with a very brotherly salutation, "Are you in health, my brother?" and then smote him under the fifth rib with a sword! I may say, 'Brother this,' and 'Sister that'–'how I love you!'–'what affection I feel for you!' I might, if God did not keep me honest, play this part of a 'varnished hypocrite'.
But I cannot feel, nor create this true love, without a special work of the Spirit on my soul. But when He enlarges the heart, and melts the soul at his footstool, He gives love to Himself–and with that love, He gives love to His people, pure affection–not a pretending–but a real desire for their spiritual welfare; not a few canting phrases, but a true feeling of brotherhood; not a mere expression of 'brother' on the lip, but brotherly affection in the heart.
When He enlarges the heart, we do not need to go among our brethren to say, 'Brother,' or 'Sister;'–we feel them in our very soul; when we are alone with God there is a tender affection flowing forth out to them of our heart, an embracing of them in our soul.
No more, we can forgive our enemies when the Lord enlarges our heart. If we can see them in the right light, where we would desire to see them, we can forgive them, though they have been most unkind to us, and cruelly treated us. I have felt, that when the Lord is pleased to enlarge the heart, anger, enmity, prejudice, bitterness, malevolence–those unclean birds all take flight–and simplicity, tenderness, humility and love all live in the soul.
4. The Lord commands us to DENY OURSELVES, take up the cross, put off the old man, and walk as becomes the gospel. Can we do this? We cannot. We may affect a popish austerity; we may put on a hypocritical visage; we may appear all sanctity and holiness; we may cleanse the outside of the cup and platter, and put an extra coat | [

of whitewash on the sepulcher. But as to that inward crucifixion, that inward deadness to the world, that inward putting off of the old man and putting on of the new, which the Word of truth speaks of, we cannot attain to–except God the Spirit works in us both the will and the power. But when God enlarges the heart, then there is no burden in God's ways; His precepts are not grievous; it is a pleasure to walk in them; and there is a sweet gratification in obeying them.
"I will RUN the way of your commandments." Not lag, nor loiter, not turn aside, not faint, not falter. "I will run" eagerly, actively, as a lover runs to his beloved bride–"I will run" cheerfully the way of your commandments, when you have enlarged my heart.
5. So with the ORDINANCES, the ordinances of the Lord's house– baptism and the Lord's supper. These are not grievous; they are not burdensome, when the Lord enlarges the heart. When we are narrowed up, shut up, contracted, these ordinances of the Lord's house are burdensome to us. We hate the very sight of the table spread with the emblems; we have the most horrible feelings of rebellion against the ordinance of baptism; yes, we feel every infernal sensation that Satan can stir up in our minds. But when the Lord enlarges our heart, there is no burden then; whatever be the precept, whatever be the ordinances, we can run in that way with cheerfulness, freedom and liberty.
6. So with respect to EVERY PRECEPT of the gospel. Whatever it be, we can run in the way of God's commandments when He enlarges our heart. There is no running in any other way. All other service is mere legalism; all other obedience is but the froth and spawn of free-will, nothing but the 'mere natural obedience' of the creature, not the 'spiritual obedience' of the child of God. But let us look at this.
Is it our happiness, is it our pleasure when we cannot run the way of God's commands? Do we lay the inability upon God, or put the responsibility upon the 'old sinful nature'? and say, It does not matter, I cannot obey them–but when God gives me the power, I shall. This is the very essence of antinomianism, the very spawn of licentiousness, the worst abuse of gospel grace.
The Christian is in one of these two spots for the most part.
1. Sometimes he is shut up, contracted, cold, dead, torpid. But this is his grief and misery. In this state of feeling, he cannot run the way of God's commandments. But is he pleased with being a loiterer? No–it is his grief and trouble that he cannot run in the way of God's commandments. This evidences the work of God the Spirit upon him–he desires do it, but he cannot–"the good that he would do, he does not." But it is the will being on the side of God which proves the reality of grace; it is the heart and conscience being enlisted on the side of the Lord that proves God is at work on his soul.
2. On the other hand, the children of God are sometimes in this state–their hearts are enlarged, their souls strengthened, and their feet are enabled to run the race that is set before them. This is their joy, their happiness, and their delight.
Now can you trace out BOTH of these things in your conscience? What is the use of my standing here to speak these things? Is it merely to amuse you? Is there not something deeper needed than that? You have a soul to be saved or damned; you are a child of God or not; the grace of God is in your heart, or it is not; you are on the broad road to hell, or on the narrow road to heaven. Have you no concern about it? What! stand upon the brink of eternity, and have no anxiety respecting it! If you are a child of God, you will have this deep concern at times in your bosom.
Can you trace out in your soul the distinct existence of the two things I have endeavored to handle? Do you know what it is to be shut up, cold, dead, and stupid? Is this your | [

Utterly Fascinating: Identity Crisis or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Pass – by Sam Accardo
On Tuesday the Mavericks failed to spoil the Lakers' chances of getting into the playoffs. With only 7 games left in the season and being a mere ½ game in front of Utah for the 8th seed, the Lakers need to finish out the rest of the season looking the best they have all year. Can the Lakers overcome the Clippers, the Grizzlies, and the Spurs to squeak into the playoffs? We'll see. But love 'em or hate 'em, the Lakers are making this as exciting as can be.
-Photo by Garrett Ellwood/NBAE via Getty Images
After the startling and encouraging road win in Indiana (without Kobe or Pau) it looked like the Lakers were really coming together and wouldn't be a good first round draw for any team at the top of the heap in the West. But after another heart breaker in Phoenix and an embarrassing loss at home against the Wizards (coupled with a bad looking road loss to Golden State), it looked like the same ol' Lakers we've been seeing before the All-Star Break. But the troubling thing about that 3 game skid (besides losing) is that the games were very winnable for the Lakers, despite their horrendous play. How so? Individually, the Lakers all played pretty well. But as a team, the Lakers looked like someone was controlling them on 2K13 without realizing the controls had been switched.
There are 2 flavors of competitive sports: team sports and solo sports. Football, Baseball, Basketball, Hockey, etc. are all sports that only win when a team is playing well together. Whereas with sports like Golf, Wrestling, Tennis, Nascar, etc. it's all up to the player themselves to take care of winning. But Basketball manages to be a hybrid of the two by putting a huge emphasis on the power of an individual player. Look at Michael Jordan for the Bulls and you can see how he was the piece that Chicago needed to rise to that elite level. But even then, even Jordan had to play basketball as a team player, and not just a star, to win 6 rings. The Kings just last year managed to snag the 8th playoff spot in the west, and after they won their first game against Vancouver on the road, the team captured lightning in a bottle. And then for the rest of the playoffs you never saw one player completely taking over the team because it seemed that every other game a new player was stepping up in the absence of another star (which is exactly what a teammate is for). If Kobe Bryant happens to go 6 of 17 in a night, then his assists should be a lot higher than just 3 (stat line from the Milwaukee game they lost last week). At the end of the day, regardless of how well Bryant, Howard, Nash, or even Gasol plays, if the team isn't playing well either, (Blake, Jamison, Clark, Meeks) then it won't matter if the Lakers even make it to the playoffs; they're gonna get bounced eventually.
I'm not trying to say that Kobe needs to play complete point guard and only shoot 8 shots a game, but every game is different. Kobe has even said that his role is dependent on the opposition. It just seems that Kobe's question about his role is "Are we losing?" If no, Kobe plays facilitator. If yes, Kobe plays "hero" ball. Now obviously it's not that binary of a decision, and if there is a player on the team that I want to take the last shot to tie or win the game, it's Bryant ten out of ten times. But the problem is the other 47 minutes where Bryant acts like it's time to take the "last shot" whether it's the last shot of the possession, the quarter, or the half. Over the last 10 games where Kobe actually played (in which the Lakers are .600), Bryant's assists are averaging at 8.5 when they win. When they lost over that same stretch, Bryant's assists average at 5.5. Those numbers aren't hugely significant, unless you look at the amount of points | [

All the latest martech and adtech news from Zeta Interactive, Engagio, MediaMath, Tableau, Local Measure, IntegraPay, Interactions, Hootsuite and Madison Logic
Zeta Interactive acquires Acxiom's email services
Data and analytics SaaS vendor, Zeta Interactive, has handed over about US$50 million to acquire the email marketing services unit of Acxiom.
Acxiom Impact's marketing automation technology and services is set to be combined with Zeta's technology platforms and assets, which focus on data-driven marketing and customer lifecycle management. Acxiom Impact has 1300 employees across 25 countries and more than 7000 customers globally. Zeta and Acxiom have also signed a long-term strategic partnership to ensure Fortune 1000 customers have a seamless transition from one business to the other.
The deal is the largest ever for Zeta, which also acquired eBay's Enterprise CRM division in 2015 to access its ESP and data services business. Overall, it's made 10 acquisitions over the past nine years.
Zeta CEO and co-founder, David A Steinberg, said the combination makes Zeta a top-tier player in the marketing cloud space.
"As Zeta drives towards realising our vision of solving CMO's biggest challenges by making data actionable at every step of the customer journey, we are constantly seeking opportunities to get there faster," he said. "Together, we provide a top-rated self-service offering and become the dominant player in managed services."
Tableau releases version 10
Data visualisation vendor, Tableau, has announced general availability of version 10 of its platform, offering a new design, analytics and mobile capabilities, as well as options for data preparation.
Top of the list is a refreshed design with new custom typeface and colour palette aimed at maximising cognition of visual analysis, the vendor said. There's also a new Device Designer allowing users to create dashboards that automatically render for a range of mobile devices, plus offline snapshots that refresh while they're connected. This is back by mobile device management platforms to ensure governance and security.
There's also a cross-database feature to help people unite disparate data sources at a row level, along with a single filter option that can be applied across multiple data sources in workbooks. Tableau has added new connectors as well to Google Sheets, QuickBooks Online and Kognitio, and more ability to create dashboards online.
In addition, there are new analytics capabilities including drag-and-drop clustering, new custom territories for advanced geographic analysis, a data highlighter and improvements to bar charts and maps data.

The ad tech player is the first partner to fully embed Geopulse into its platform, a dataset the vendor claims that covers 95 million businesses listed across 50 countries and is steadily increasing.
"The combination of our highly accurate global data with MediaMath's advanced targeting and measurement capabilities will create a highly competitive proposition that will deliver tremendous value to the programmatic advertising world," said Rob Jonas, SVP revenue at Factual.
"Factual's global roster of exchange and publisher partners all maintain extensive relationships with MediaMath and extending these to include targeting using Factual's Geopulse products is a valuable way to drive location targeted marketing budgets as we head into the fourth quarter."

First in-video payment tech launch
Queensland-based payment technology innovator, IntegraPay is claiming an Australian first with its in-video payment solution.
The company's 'checkout' feature allows consumers to pay directly within a video on any website or social media channel. IntegraPay CEO, Chris Urry, said the intelligent in-video payment software turned existing videos into direct sales machines by widening the marketing net to potentially millions of people through social media sharing and website embedding.
"In-video payments allow users to stay within the video they're watching and are given the option to pay directly within the video content while viewing media," he said. "The audience is engaged and emotionally connecting with the content on the screen, and during that moment, prompted to purchase."
IntegraPay's video transaction technology is Australian Payment Card Industry (PCI) compliant, and payment forms stay within the video unit, refreshing for each user if the video is shared. Urry said the technology can be immediately linked with any video.

The Canadian vendor's founder and CEO, Ryan Holmes, told Fortune that getting to cash neutral status was a big accomplishment, adding that running cash neutral was more practical as organisations approached unicorn (US$1bn) status.
He wouldn't commit to a particular timeframe for an initial public offering but noted Hootsuite was now in a good position in terms of systems for that type of financial scrutiny.

Engagio raises US$22bn for account-based everything platform
Engagio, the account-based marketing startup established by former Marketo founder, Jon Miller, has raised US422 million in Series B funding to help scale its global footprint and product offering.
The investment, which was provided by Norwest Venture Partners and several other private equity firms, will be used to scale sales and marketing as well as accelerate innovation of the vendor's platform, which it dubs as 'account-based everything'. The technology is aimed at B2B companies and is designed to complement marketing automation and CRM platforms by helping brands target multiple influencers and buyers within a desired customer account.
"ABM is clearly red-hot," said Miller. "But at the same time, marketing alone is insufficient for account-based success.

The Iron Lady as a liberator
Learning of Margaret Thatcher's death in this place is grimly appropriate, because it made me remember the imprisoned society of my youth that Thatcher did so much to set free
Yuliya Tymoshenko
For many of us who grew up in the Soviet Union and its satellites in Eastern Europe, Margaret Thatcher will always be a heroine. Not only did she espouse the cause of freedom – particularly economic freedom – in Britain and the West; by proclaiming Mikhail Gorbachev a man 'we can do business with' (at a time when almost every democratic leader was deeply suspicious of his policies of perestroika and glasnost), she became a vital catalyst in unlocking our gulag societies.
Indeed, for everyone in the former communist world who sought to build a free society out of the wreckage of totalitarianism, the Iron Lady became a secular icon. Her qualities of courage and persistence – of being 'not for turning' – provided a living example for us of a type of leadership that does not buckle at moments of political peril. I have certainly taken inspiration from her fidelity to her principles and absolute determination to fight, and fight again, when the cause is just.
One of the true joys of my life in politics was the opportunity to have a quiet lunch with Thatcher in London some years ago, and express my gratitude to her for recognising our chance for freedom and seizing the diplomatic initiative to help realise it. Throughout my premiership, I kept a quote of hers in mind: "I am not a consensus politician; I am a conviction politician." Her rigorous sense of the true duty of a politician always gave me comfort during a political struggle, for our duty as leaders is not to hold office, but to use our power to improve people's lives and increase the scope of their freedom.
When Thatcher first expressed her belief in the potential of Gorbachev's pro-democracy reforms, I was a 24-year-old recent university graduate beginning my career. There was scant hope that my life would be better than that of my mother and, more dispiriting, even less hope that I would be able to build a better life for my young daughter. Thatcher's embrace of the cause of our freedom was electrifying for me. The great dissident writer Nadezhda Mandelstam had seen for us a future in which we could only 'hope against hope'; yet here was a leader who saw for us a future not of squalor and moral compromise, but of freedom and opportunity. I still shake my head in wonder that she could embrace the abandoned hope of liberation when almost no one else – not even Gorbachev – could even imagine it.
But, of course, Thatcher understood freedom, because it was in her very sinews. She was assuredly not for turning, but she also was not for taking orders or settling for the restricted life that her society seemed to hold in store for her. In a Britain where social class still typically determined one's destiny, the grocer's daughter from the north made her way to Oxford and starred as a student of chemistry.
Then she dared to enter the exclusive male preserve of politics. When she became the first woman to be British Prime Minister, she fired the ambitions of countless young women around the world (including mine). We could dream big because of her example.
And, as a woman, Thatcher knew that she brought something unique to the corridors of power. As she said on taking office in 1979, "Any woman who understands the problems of running a home will be nearer to understanding the problems of running a country." That common-sense fusion of family values and fiscal probity set an example for every elected leader who has followed her.
Of course, I well understand that many in Britain felt left behind by the economic and social revolution that Thatcher unleashed. But the entire point of Thatcherism, as I understood it from afar, was to create conditions in which everyone could work hard and achieve their dreams. That is what I – and all of Ukraine's democrats – want for our country: a | [

Q: trying to align a view vertically to the edit text inside the inputlayout [see image] the helper text shifts the alignment just look how the OTP button seems to not be aligned properly. how do I fix that?
I'm using material UI's outlined textfeild which also has a helper text. That adds to the height of the input layout. hence, this issue. I want the OTP button to be aligned perfectly besides the text field. is there a way to do that other than making the helper text into a textview? I also don't want to use margin on the button to align it because that can cause unexpected changes in different screen sizes. Here's the code -

Barwell meteorite: Collector continues hunt for space rock

Barwell meteorite
Meteorite collector Graham Ensor had his interest in the subject sparked by the Barwell fall.
The space rock crashed to earth a day after his ninth birthday and living just 10 miles from the village, the schoolboy was well aware of the media interest surrounding the event.
His curiosity grew as a teenager and now Graham, a member of the British and Irish Meteorite Society (BIMS), holds what he believes to be the largest private collection of meteorites in the UK.
Representing the society, which supports research into meteoritics of all kinds and the preservation of historic or new meteorites in the UK, he took a selection of his samples to an event at Barwell Methodist Church held earlier this month to mark the 50th anniversary of the inter-planetary collison.
He also helped to put on an anniversary show at the National Space Centre in Leicester, where the largest known chunk of the meteorite is on permanent loan from London's Natural History Museum, and is spearheading plans for a monument to be mounted in the village to mark the event.
Story link: Historian Michael Roberts looks back on the day the meteorite fell
Mr Ensor's own fragment of the Barwell meteorite was found by a factory worker Ernie Wright in Dawsons Lane on his return to work after Christmas in 1965, where it had smashed through the roof of his workplace.
The 136g piece of space rock ended up in a box in the man's garage for nearly 50 years, as his wife was worried it was radioactive.
Two years ago, Mr Ensor acquired it - along with its box - from Mr Wright's son.
He said: "The meteorite's value to science is much more important than its monetary value.
"Barwell in particular was important as it changed how scientists thought about the sequence of formation of large bodies in the solar system.
"I have searched and talked to folks there many times and not found any more samples and don't know of any others found in recent times.
"We have been trying to negotiate other hunts but farmers are not keen as they have had damage done in the past by trespassers and don't want the media publicising the fact that valuable material might be found on their land.
"Whenever there is a building development in the strewnfield I approach the builders for permission to hunt and I have tried metal detectors too but have so far found nothing more."

* Hundreds queued for a rare chance to see a chunk of the famous Barwell meteorite, back in the village 50 years after it fell.
The largest known piece of the space rock, which hit the village on Christmas Eve 1965, now belongs to London's Natural History Museum.
It is on permanent loan to Leicester's National Space Centre, whose curator Dan Kendall took the precious fragment back to the place where it was found half a century ago.
Around 500 people, including visitors from Devon, made the most of the free event which was organised and hosted by Barwell Methodist Church.
Some had been around on the day the rock fell to earth and shared their stories of their close encounter.
One or two took along pieces of the meteorite that they found at the time and kept as souvenirs.
Others had taken advantage of rewards offered by the Natural History Museum in return for pieces given to the museum for analysis.
Samples of other meteorites, including pieces of Mars and our Moon, were on display and able to be handled, under the supervision of Graham Ensor from the British and Irish Meteorite Society.
The Reverend Andy Murphy, Barwell Methodist Church minister, said: "We were overwhelmed by the number of people that we were able to welcome into our church to celebrate this piece of local history.
"There was a wonderful atmosphere of excitement and curiosity throughout the day and we are very grateful to both Dan and Graham, not only for agreeing to bring along the Barwell Meteorite and the collection of meteorites, but also for spending the whole day talking to our visitors and answering questions almost without a pause."
The Barwell meteorite is now back on display at the National | [

Atlantic Watersports has an extensive range of watersports activities available that can be reserved. Contact us today to plan your next day out on the water!
Cruise to a sandbar! We'll drop anchor alongside other kayaking, yachting, and sun-loving enthusiasts. Spend the day in the sun or shade, swimming in the water. Ask us about adding water toys to your charter.
Powered supercharged engine enables the vessel to reach a top speed of up to 55mph on the surface and 25 mph below. When you breach the water's surface during these high speed dives you can launch the entire 18 feet (6 meter) length of the craft out of the water.
What's it like to fly? Imagine a modern-day flying carpet with attitude, twist the throttle, the skirts inflate and you rise up on the cushion of air, as if on a back-to-the-future type anti-gravity levitation vehicle. As the Hovercraft picks up speed, so the driver/passenger Adrenalin starts to flow.
Imagine the rush of being able to burst out of the water and fly 45 feet (14 meters) into the air! The Flyboard allows you to experience controlled flight, the feeling of accelerating freely on the water's level and the most exhilarating: simulating the dolphin's graceful swim! The main thrust comes from your feet, so it feels like Iron Man!
The Zapata Flyride™ is designed to make hydroflight accessible for beginners and offer new thrills for extreme riders. It achieves this by combining the familiar form and controls of a personal watercraft with Zapata's latest advancements in computer aided flight control and gyro stabilization.
Since the days of James Bond, we've always been fascinated with the Jetpack!. There is the feeling of weightlessness and freedom to move 3D. As soon as sufficient lift is applied, you and the jetpack become weightless and levitate in the air, and even small amounts of force will move or turn you. You can travel in any direction, at any height, and at any speed that the system will carry you.
Fly and Surf Above the Water! Inspired by the movie Back to the Future™ and in tribute to the famous Silver Surfer™ the Hoverboard by ZR® is a hydro-propelled board, which allows the user to ride and surf in total freedom above the water. The Hoverboard by ZR® user can manage the board with ease and can reach up to 8 meters above the water, to an average speed of 40 km/h.
See our Florida paradise the way it was meant to be seen…from the water aboard a Jet Ski! Join Atlantic Watersports as we take you on a guided tour of Florida. Whether you want a single or tandem Jet Ski, or a guided tour package, we've got you!
A new sport is coming The Powered Jetboard born to enjoy cruising and high speed over water. You will enjoy discovering feelings with this new sport. Have fun with water rides and slalom. Lightweight and fast. Its powerful jet is really intuitive to use.
We're proud to offer the world's premiere performance hydrofoils for surf and wake and the ultimate electric hydrofoil experience for flying over any body of water - no wind, waves, or towing required. The eFoil lets riders experience flight over almost any body of water at up to 25 mph, no waves required.
Jetskis are called "Jet Ski", because originally you had to stand up to ride them like a skis. Those who know how to ride Standup Jetskis cannot resist them. But its not for everyone. If you've never ridden them before, we'll teach you!
Kayaking is a great sport for any beginner to learn. Like cycling, it's relatively simple to pick up. Within a few hours you'll be paddling along happily. It's a healthy and fun activity to share with your whole family. Not only is it a fun physical activity where everyone can expend excess energy, but it's also a wonderful way to connect with the natural world.
Tubing is the easiest of all tow sports, and as such is a sport truly accessible to the whole family. But that's not to say it's not dramatic! From gliding across the surface of the wake, smoothly enjoying the rush of the water | [

How A Midsummer Night's Dream Helped Me Understand My Need for Spanking
By Jillian Keenan
There are more things in Shakespeare's verse, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.
Illustration by Ping Zhu
Excerpted from Sex With Shakespeare: Here's Much to Do With Pain, but More With Love, by Jillian Keenan, to be published on April 26 by William Morrow. Reprinted courtesy of HarperCollins Publishers.
It all started with Helena. For me, she is everything. As I sat alone one night, in the middle of the Omani desert, feeling gross and broken and alone, Helena had my back. I needed a friend, and she, as best friends do, showed up.
In the desert, the faint outline of two figures appeared. It was Helena and Demetrius. They were in the middle of a fight.
No, not literally. To be clear, I don't hallucinate Shakespeare characters (although that would be awesome). What happened that night is that I understood, for the first time, just how books interact with our lives. The characters we love become more than friends. Through them, we can pass our anxieties, questions, fears, and insecurities to an external source of strength; confront what is internal in an external forum.
Literature is a conversation. Books are walkie-talkies, not radios. That night, as I sat in the warm midnight Omani desert, I let these characters sink into my life.
I spoke to them. And they spoke back.
At first, though, Demetrius and Helena ignored me. They focused on their fight.
"I love thee not; therefore pursue me not," Demetrius yelled at Helena. He wanted her to stop following him. She, as always, refused.
"You draw me, you hard-hearted adamant!" she shouted back.
I sighed. I always hated this part. In this scene, Helena, who loves Demetrius, follows him into a forest while he yells at her to go away. But she stays with him. I had watched Helena and Demetrius have this fight onstage a dozen times, and imagined it a hundred more. But no matter how many times I revisited this conversation, I couldn't find a reason to like it. Why did Shakespeare include such a cold, cruel scene in this lighthearted play? It didn't fit.
A Midsummer Night's Dream is Shakespeare's most joyful exploration of sensuality and the infinite variety of sex. Its world is sex uncensored, joyful, and diverse. I could find a huge spectrum of sexualities reflected in its characters. I saw passionate monogamy in Hermia and Lysander, confident polyamory in Oberon and Titania, playful anthropomorphism in Titania and Bottom, and loving bisexuality or homosexuality in Oberon and Puck.
But in Helena and Demetrius, I just saw assholes. The problem was that damn scene.
From its beginning, A Midsummer Night's Dream provokes questions about sexual consent. Does Hippolyta sincerely consent to marry Theseus, or was she kidnapped and coerced? To what extremes should Hermia go to avoid a forced marriage? When Oberon puts the fairy potion on Titania's eyes to trick her into falling for Bottom, is that comparable to putting a date-rape drug in her drink? We should ask ourselves these questions. Midsummer isn't just a play about sexual awakening and sexual exploration. It is, at its core, a play that grapples with questions about sexual freedom, self-determination, and consent.
Even more than that, this is a play about people who do consent.
Which brings us back to my girl Helena.
Helena isn't an easy woman to love. She's whiny and self-pitying. It's hard to sympathize with her desperate fight for Demetrius, who seems so unworthy. We first hear about Helena before we see her, when Lysander reveals her romantic history with Demetrius. Lysander's description of Helena is friendly and sweet. But her first appearance onstage is far less flattering. In fact, she's pathetic. She whines about Demetrius, oblivious to her best friend Hermia's far more serious plight of being forced | [

to marry against her will. And her love of Demetrius is even worse. What kind of monster leaves his fiancée for her best friend? What kind of woman keeps chasing him, even after that betrayal?
What kind of people talk to each other this way?
"Do I entice you? Do I speak you fair?" Demetrius shouted at Helena. He ran his fingers through his hair, frustrated, and kicked the toe of his boot against a sand dune. "Or rather do I not in plainest truth tell you I do not nor I cannot love"—his voice caught in his throat, and he turned his back to Helena—"you," he finished.
I stayed at my seat and watched them fight.
"And even for that do I love you the more," Helena replied, wrapping her hands around her stomach. She stood there, looking at Demetrius' back. Then she made a decision.
"I am your spaniel, and Demetrius, the more you beat me, I will fawn on you," she said.
The starkness of those words, my least favorite line in the play, hung in the air. Demetrius looked down. I looked up.
And for the first time, perhaps, we both listened—really listened—to Helena.
"Use me but as your spaniel—spurn me, strike me, neglect me, lose me," she said. "Only give me leave, unworthy as I am, to follow you. What worser place can I beg in your love (and yet a place of high respect with me) than to be uséd as you use your dog?"
Demetrius stood there, frozen. Then he sat down on a sand dune, his body hunched over and his forehead in the palms of his hands. He swallowed. His next words had none of the rancor of his earlier threats. Suddenly, he sounded tired and sad.
"Tempt not too much the hatred of my spirit, for I am sick when I do look on thee," Demetrius said, unable to make eye contact.
Helena walked over to the dune and settled down next to him, the tips of her fingers sinking into the sand. "And I am sick when I look not on you," she replied.
Demetrius looked at the ground for long seconds. Finally, he looked up and met Helena's eyes.
"You do impeach your modesty too much, to leave the city and commit yourself into the hands of one that loves you not," he muttered, furrowing his brow with amazement. "To trust the opportunity of night and the ill counsel of a desert place with the rich worth of your virginity."
Helena shrugged. "Your virtue is my privilege," she said, simply. She put her hand on Demetrius' ankle, and, for a second, he let it rest there. Then he stood up, abruptly, and shook his head. Their détente was over. He demanded again that she leave him alone, and ran off. His outline disappeared into the desert.
I expected Helena to jump up and follow him, as she always does. But this time she didn't. Instead, she looked over at me, acknowledging my presence for the first time, and smiled.
Then she shook her head. My breath caught in my throat.
No matter how many times I had watched Helena and Demetrius have this fight, the words had always been the same. It was always hard to watch Helena debase herself in the face of Demetrius' obvious scorn. On paper, that scene is sad, unfunny, and doesn't make sense within the context of the play. Taken at face value, their fight is exactly what it appears to be: Demetrius is selfish and cruel, and Helena is ridiculous and pathetic. This interpretation relies on the worst stereotypes of both genders, since it requires us to accept that men are unfeeling and inconstant in love, and that women are clingy, desperate, and lacking in self-respect. Which is why, for years, I hated that scene.
But I'd never seen it like I did that night—so soft, so honest, so compassionate. I had never before seen Demetrius' obvious pain. I'd never seen Helena's strength.
We tend to skim over Shakespeare's most challenging scenes, like this one, or play them for absurd laughs, because otherwise they' | [

re too hard to digest. We can't confront lines like "The more you beat me, I will fawn on you" because Midsummer is a comedy, and if people were to engage with the literal or even figurative meanings of those words, it wouldn't be funny anymore. Even worse, we gloss over lines like:
You do impeach your modesty too much,
To leave the city and commit yourself
Into the hands of one that loves you not;
To trust the opportunity of night,
And the ill counsel of a desert place,
With the rich worth of your virginity.
At face value, that's a rape threat. How can we stomach a rape threat in a romantic comedy? If we reduce Helena to a pathetic cliché and Demetrius to a cruel player, how can we smile and be satisfied at the end when they end up together?
We can't.
That interpretation is unfair to these characters. They deserve better. Demetrius is not a monster, and Helena is not a pathetic damsel in a tower, waiting for a man to climb up her hair. Her actions throughout the play prove otherwise. She's relentless and unstoppable. She knows what she wants, and latches onto it like a lioness on the hunt. She's not stupid, either. So why would she invite the object of her affection to "beat" and "strike" her? Why, if Helena isn't silly, self-effacing, and desperate (an interpretation I've seen in too many performances), does she ask for this treatment?
Maybe it's what she wants.
How might the possibility that Helena and Demetrius are kinky change their relationship? How might that possibility change this frustrating and challenging scene?
Look again at the first words of their exchange. Demetrius says, "Do I entice you? Do I speak you fair? Or rather do I not in plainest truth tell you I do not, nor I cannot, love you?" Already, something is wrong. We can't take this scene at face value. From that perspective, Demetrius is just angry with Helena for following him into the forest. But there's more at stake here. Demetrius is in genuine pain—and I can prove it.
Shakespeare wrote the majority of his verse in iambic pentameter—a poetic form in which each line has ten syllables. Those syllables break into five so-called "feet," with two syllables per foot: an unstressed syllable, followed by a stressed syllable (ba bump / ba bump / ba bump / ba bump / ba bump). Demetrius' first two lines—"Do I entice you? Do I speak you fair? / Or rather do I not in plainest truth"—are perfect iambic pentameter. But the third line—"Tell you I do not, nor I cannot, love you?"—isn't. It has one extra syllable.
That might seem minor, but it's not. Breaks in the verse form are significant in Shakespeare. They're the clues that Shakespeare left us to understand his characters. Irregular iambic pentameter can indicate a lot of things: extreme anger, mental illness, or inebriation. But in this scene, I don't think those possibilities fit. Demetrius isn't drunk or mentally ill. And if Shakespeare wanted to suggest anger, I suspect he'd put the irregularity in the line "Do I entice you? Do I speak you fair?" which seems like a more appropriate place to emphasize rage. Demetrius isn't as angry as his words suggest. In this context, I think the irregular pentameter indicates emotional turmoil or pain.
In other words, Shakespeare says that it crushes Demetrius to tell Helena that he does not—or cannot—love her.
If it's so painful for Demetrius to treat Helena this way, he's not just a jerk who doesn't love her. There must be some more nuanced explanation. Something happened.

Coming to terms with the details of our sexual identities is hard for everyone. That's especially true for people who have non-normative sexual identities. It was hard for me to accept that I'm a fetishist. I was in denial | [

for a long time. This process is often even more difficult for sadists. I can't imagine how scary and confusing it must feel to realize, in the early stages of sexual development, that you long to "hurt" the people you desire. Many sadists have told me that, at first, their fantasies terrified them. And in the early stages of awareness, it doesn't necessarily help when sadists and masochists first meet. It's overwhelming. We feed into each other, and the realization that our fantasies could become realities is the scariest thing of all.
What if this conflict explains the mystery of why Demetrius got engaged to Helena and then abruptly left her to pursue Hermia instead? What if he couldn't confront the terrifying implications of a relationship in which both he and Helena started to become aware of some scary sexual impulses? Helena and Demetrius aren't very old. They're teenagers. There's no way they've had enough experience to understand their sexual selves yet.
I've been there. Once, when I was fifteen, years before my first kiss or even my first date, I got into a playful pillow fight with my friend Dan. (Pillow fights are a common way to test the waters of rougher play.) The fight had escalated into teasing and playful threats when, abruptly, Dan grabbed a remote control and slapped it across my butt, hard, two times. We both froze.
"It's fine," I replied, a bit too soon.
The rest of the afternoon was awkward, and I left not long after. The next morning, Dan emailed me.
"I'm so sorry about yesterday," he wrote. "I don't know what's wrong with me. I'm such an asshole."
Remembering that letter, my heart aches for him. Dan and I have long since lost touch, and I can't make assumptions about his sexuality. But I can let my experience and impressions of how humans interact influence my assumptions about Demetrius. Here's what I know: Teenagers are awkward, easily embarrassed, and scared of their sexual impulses. And I believe that when humans—especially young adults—treat each other badly, it's often motivated by fear rather than by cruelty.
I don't think Demetrius is cruel. I think he's scared. I was, too.
What if his voice cracks with pain, not anger, when he tells Helena that he cannot love her? What if Helena's response is not just shameful degradation?
And even for that do I love you the more:
I am your spaniel; and, Demetrius,
The more you beat me, I will fawn on you.
Use me but as your spaniel; spurn me, strike me …
What if that line—"The more you beat me, I will fawn on you"—is not a silly moment of hyperbolic desperation, but rather the most honest moment in the scene? Helena's first line in that section—"And even for that do I love you the more"—is not perfect iambic pentameter. It has one extra, unstressed, syllable. We call that a "weak ending." (Those are also, unfortunately, known as "feminine endings.") There's another weak ending in the final line.
Consider this: to make his verse perfect, Shakespeare only had to remove the word the from the first line. Then it would be "and even for that do I love you more"—perfect iambic pentameter. By including that unnecessary three-letter word, Shakespeare forced a weak ending.
It's not a coincidence. In Shakespeare, little is.
And as her speech progresses, Helena's verse becomes more regular. She's gaining power and rhythm as she speaks:
Neglect me, lose me; only give me leave,
Unworthy as I am, to follow you.
What worser place can I beg in your love
(And yet a place of high respect with me)
Than to be uséd as you use your dog?
What if this portion of Helena's dialogue isn't silly self-debasement? What if it is instead the most explicit and brave declaration of sexual consent in the Shakespearean canon? Better still, what if Demetrius' next remark isn't a rape | [

Want to get a piece of the eBay pie? Joining its affiliate program can be a good way to do just that.
Affiliate programs--in which a website carries a banner ad for a company in exchange for a percentage of any sales referred to the advertiser--have become quite popular among online retailers. And one of the most lucrative affiliate programs today is operated by online auction powerhouse eBay.
"One of the reasons eBay's affiliate program is so successful is because of the sheer number of people that come to eBay's website every day," says Vaughan Smith, who's responsible for eBay's affiliate program as the senior director of internet marketing. "We are paying multiple affiliates every second of the year for transactions that they drive to us, and that's the result of having 25 million items up at any one time that affiliates can promote."
Additionally, affiliates earn between 10 and 25 cents for each bid and qualified Buy It Now transaction, a combination that allows some entrepreneurs to strike it rich. According to eBay, it has about 10,000 affiliates in its program, with the top 50 affiliates making more than $1 million in commissions per year. "These are real businesses that are making great money," says Smith. "So if you are an entrepreneur [who] is innovative, has technical skills and a little bit of a marketing bent, then this is a fantastic way to make money on the internet."
On its part, eBay has tried to make it easy for affiliates to work with the company. Affiliates are given a choice of eBay banners, buttons and logos that they can feature on their websites; when someone clicks on that banner, button or link, they're taken to the eBay site with a cookie on their computer showing that the affiliate referred them. EBay also offers Editor Kits, which allow affiliates to add relevant, real-time eBay listings to their sites. With these customizable features, a site that reviews movies, for example, could have reviews on one side of a web page and the actual listings of the movies for sale on eBay on the other side of the page.
Last year, eBay launched its affiliate API (Application Programming Interface) program, which lets affiliates access more real-time eBay data than they were previously able to--such as category listings, product details, pricing data, bidding times and inventory counts. It enables affiliates, for example, to publish product images from live auctions in their own applications and sites. Using the API program, affiliates can better tie this information into their own selling efforts, which can lead to increased commissions.
One entrepreneur who has found success as an eBay affiliate is David Kaye, 48, president and founder (with wife Andrea, 33) of Kayetech Systems Inc., an online affiliate marketing company in Mount Dora, Florida. The company has 550 niche websites--including AllBookstores.com, AutoBuyersAdvice.com, Fashionbrokers.com and Handbags-and-Purses.org--devoted to specific product categories and featuring links to products on different merchants' websites that Kayetech promotes, such as eBay.
Since Kayetech is a member of various affiliate programs, whenever people click on the links, the company makes a profit. To promote the sites, Kayetech relies on search advertising. The sites come in different varieties. AllBookstores.com, for example, is a site that allows people to find the lowest book prices on new and used books by comparing prices at online bookstores. The site compares prices by searching websites such as Amazon.com, Barnesandnoble.com and eBay.com, and when someone clicks on a link to purchase or bid on a book from eBay (or any of the links, that is), Kayetech makes a profit.
Kaye says he uses many of the tools eBay provides, such as the affiliate API program and the Editor Kit. And he also uses paid search advertising to generate eBay commissions. So how's he doing? Kaye says he makes more than $150,000 in commissions per month with eBay. "We are making the most money with the eBay program," says Kaye, whose company comprises Kaye, his wife and two programmers that he contracts out. | [

AI is Shrinking the World—and Driving Business
Artificial intelligence is helping small- and mid-sized businesses compete more effectively, and globally, writes eBay's chief strategy officer.

Artificial intelligence is going to destroy the world. At least, that's what you'd understandably think after reading many of today's headlines.
But there's another side to the AI story. AI actually helps small- and medium-sized businesses to compete more effectively, and at scale, leveling the playing field much like the internet did decades ago. We see this every day in e-commerce, where AI allows small- and medium-sized businesses to reach global markets and creates opportunities for personalization and discovery.
In an era where retail stalwarts like Toys R Us, JCPenney and Bon-Ton are closing brick-and-mortar stores, or totally going out of business, AI technologies can create economic opportunity. AI offers tangible ways for new market entrants, niche brands and main street stores to succeed in today's challenging environment.
AI is shrinking the world. Small and medium-sized businesses are now empowered to tap into global markets when they have access to AI technology. For example, we see 97 percent of eBay-enabled small businesses in the U.S. export globally, compared to only 1 percent of traditional businesses. Just think about a buyer in China discovering a new item from a seller in the UK. One enters their listing information in English and the other searches in Mandarin. The real work is happening behind the scenes, with machine translation seamlessly connecting the buyer and the seller, enabling the transaction and dramatically extending a small seller's reach.
AI is personalizing experiences. Consumers are increasingly spending their time on social media and messaging apps, on video and with voice-enabled devices. In the U.S., young adults spend 43% of their time on digital platforms, according to Nielsen's Total Audience Report: Q1 2018. And out of all the measured generations, these young adults spend the most time on their smartphones—making up for nearly a third of their time.
To keep up with digital natives, brands and retailers need to be where consumers are—anytime, anywhere. This is the rise of distributed commerce. AI makes those browse experiences more personalized, better marketing the right products to the right people based on AI's understanding of the buyer's intent. This enables growth for small- and medium-sized businesses by introducing a buyer to a new brand in a relevant way.
AI is powering image recognition. Today, a consumer can use pictures instead of words to find products. Let's say you are browsing a fashion blog featuring trendy styles from Japan's Harajuku district. You love a graphic print backpack but have no idea where to buy it or how to describe it. A buyer can now simply use a photo to search for that backpack. This "camera as a platform" model allows for discovery-based shopping in ways that have been out of reach for online commerce until now. Visual search already represents 1 billion searches a month, as cited in eMarketer's Visual Search 2018 report. And the number is increasing quickly—growing more than 50% a year at companies like Pinterest.
These examples underscore how AI levels the playing field for small- and medium-sized businesses. AI helps buyers connect with sellers around the world—seamlessly. It helps surface the most relevant inventory for a given user, creating a more personalized experience. And AI enables easy discovery of new brands and products through image recognition. This technology makes it easier for consumers to find an item that appeals to them without first knowing the name of the brand or store.
These are just a few examples. There are many additional ways AI is supporting small businesses—from AI-powered chat bots to AI-enabled recommendation systems to autonomous vehicles helping automate last-mile deliveries. AI services are being democratized through platform providers like eBay, Google Cloud and Amazon Web Services.
There's still uncertainty about exactly what type of world AI will enable. One where AI replaces jobs through automation or another where AI augments our lives and creates new opportunities for small- and medium-sized business | [

Over the last six months, PagarBook has increased its user base to eight million, and launched its User Interface (UI) in 13 different languages.
Users can fill information such as number of employees, payment structure, working days, leaves etc. for the app to activate the desired service, after which the app directs itself to record and analyse the data for future use.
Dunzo aims to launch 250 micro-fulfilment centres to serve 700-plus neighbourhoods
Gyanapp to PagarBook
The journey has not been as simple as it seems, because the team had not originally started with the SME segment.
They had first looked at an Indian language quality, knowledge-sharing social media platform, simply put an Indian-language equivalent of Quora. This led them to start GyanApp in 2018, for which they had also raised funding from India Quotient.
However, they quickly realised that the market was tough, and they weren't getting the expected returns. It meant going back to the drawing board.
They knew that the segment was different and needed a little more detailing, which got them to explore the SME space.
They found that in India more than 50 percent of the SME owners suffer every month because of the complex financial and staff management record maintenance. Presently, there are nearly 56 million such enterprises in various industries, employing close to 124 million people.
While PagarBook was a significantly different idea from what they started out with, they still had the support and backing of their investor.
Anand Lunia, Founding Partner, India Quotient, says, "When we invested, they were building an Indian-language equivalent of Quora. That is a very tough space. The founders put in solid effort but soon admitted that it is a tough space. It's rare for founders to admit something like this, particularly if they still have money in the bank," Anand says.
Anand explains that this is when he suggested that they dig deeper into the market.
"We all then agreed on the PagarBook plan. While it seems to be completely the opposite of the original idea, the core skills of building a product for the non-English speaking audience remain the same," Anand says.
Giving the blue-collared workforce a payslip
Anand says PagarBook is one of the first companies in India to give a 'payslip' to every blue-collared worker. What this means is all these workers have a financial profile, record of experience, and earnings. This profile will help these blue-collar workers enter the formal economy, even though many of them may not be permanent employees at par with their white-collar counterparts.
"Before launching our pilot project, our first question was, 'do people even want it?' But again, if you do not have a product, you would never know how useful it could be to people. We took quite some time to figure out the exact model," Adarsh says.
The PagarBook Suite comes with mobile apps for Android, iOS and desktop software. The data is synced in real-time between desktop and mobile devices. The features include attendance marking, automatic salary calculation, salary slip generation and customisation, staff onboarding, a dashboard for SME owners and more.

Why the need for PagarBook?
"Between October to December 2018, we met more than 300 SME owners (and their employees) ranging from retail shopkeepers, wholesalers, manufacturers of hardware, embroidery, loom, construction and furniture to diamond industries, in Surat, Ahmedabad, Patna, Sivan, Jaipur, New Delhi, and Bengaluru to understand their concerns," Adarsh explains.
In these meetings, they pointed out that traditional ways of working were slowing down their work and reducing efficiency. Some of the pain points they specifically mentioned were - maintaining bahi-khata and recovery for retailers and wholesaler, invoice and inventory management (while this problem is solved by other apps, the team found out that people needed industry specific solutions) and staff salary, work and attendance management.
Many merchants have between four to 20 people working for them (typically every segment except a small retailer). These employees typically earn between Rs 8000 -Rs | [

15,000 depending on the experience and industry.
On a regular basis, some of these employers hand out advances anywhere between Rs 100 and Rs 1,000 to the employee for their day-to-day expenses. Also, this industry is only work driven, so 90 percent of the workers do not have the privilege of paid leave.
To maintain all advances given during the month, work done, and attendance (hours/days) people use two to three ledgers/attendance cards. In most cases, employees also maintain a ledger of the same for reconciliation.
Staff hiring was another problem area. A lot of employees leave after seven to eight months of work, and most of these exits are sudden. Employers have nothing to go by other than the employee's word.
There is also no official document or digital record of previous employment. Sometimes employers also hire on contract (only for three to four months months) depending on the work/volume cycle.
"This is done through contractors who charge 10-40 percent of an employee's monthly salary. Also, according to a report by NSSO (National Sample Survey Office), approximately 50 million blue-collared employees switched their jobs annually," Adarsh explains.
Post their extensive study, the team concluded that close to 25 to 40 million SMEs needed a solution for staff salary, work and attendance management, and hiring problems.
Also, over 200 million workers' lives could be improved just by standardising their work and financial history. There was urgent need to design financial products like loans, insurance, savings accounts for these people, which could be a first mass-scale effort to bring them online financially.
"A wish to create a technology that has a multiplier effect and solves the needs of small businessmen or the SME community led us to start PagarBook," Adarsh says.

The workings
The team had first decided to soft launch into the market using digital campaigns. Within a few weeks though, it attracted thousands of downloads and an active user base. Over the last six months, PagarBook has increased its user base to eight million, and launched its User Interface (UI) in 13 different languages.
A user can fill information such as number of employees, payment structure, working days, leaves etc. for the app to activate the desired service, further to which the app directs itself to record and analyse the data for future use.
With the solution serving all staff management needs, it is not restricted to a single business/sector. Hence PagarBook serves clients from various industries. While starting to work on the technology, we obviously had to understand it from many aspects, says Adarsh.
Speaking about the pandemic's impact, he explains, "COVID has been tough on both employers as well as employees. We had seen payouts to employees drop close to 50 percent in the first wave, and close to 70 percent in the second wave. Speaking to a few of the employers, we found that some of them were gracious enough to provide food and shelter to their employees during these times, albeit for a limited time."

Model and revenue
Ironically, the pandemic year of 2020 was the year of hyper growth for PagarBook, and it is when they touched eight million customers.
"We started full-fledged on our paid premium offerings roughly three months ago, our ARR is growing 50-60 percent MoM. Speaking about fintech, we have released Early Pagar products for a very specific and small set of employees this month, where we have deployed Early Pagar loans to a few 100 employees. The plan is to double down on experiments in fintech towards the latter part of the year," adds Adarsh.
PagarBook's basic product is free on Android and iOS; it has an annual subscription fee of Rs 2,399 on desktop premium and Rs 1,199 on app premium.
A study by Google-KPMG showed that digitally empowered SMEs have about twice the revenue growth projections compared to offline SMEs.
As of now, the segment has several startups - KhataBook | [

Mik Pyro on the punk elements of modern hip hop & his Loose legacy
"…people think it's just repetitive gangster shit, but if you listen to what he's doing musically it's like jazz, in that way it's very innovative."
Once the lead singer of celebrated Irish band Republic of Loose, over the past few years Mik Pyro has been working on his solo material. While the influences on Loose were more hip hop and funk leaning, Mik's new project retains those elements while wandering into the realm of blues and jazz.
Eric Davidson and Craig Connolly caught up with him for a chat before his show on Wednesday December 21 in Sugar Club.
He discusses the genius of the much-maligned world of modern hip hop, plus his role on in the future of Irish music.
Craig: So the first thing that struck us is you wrapped up a few years ago with Republic of Loose, so why now for the solo record?
To be honest I didn't have any money to do it, and now I do. It's kind of spontaneous. It's definitely more mature.
It's still the same influences, 80s, R&B, blues, gospel… Hopefully it's just a little more sophisticated.
Eric: I saw you talking about a Danny Brown interview where he discusses Lil B and artists like that. You're obviously a fan of contemporary hip hop?
Absolutely, I love those two guys. A lot of people slag them off, but they're the punk rock element of rap. When people do something a bit weird they can find it annoying. Lil B especially, I think he's a genius, but a lot of hip hop heads don't like him because it's not 'technically refined'.
I love that stuff, it's innovative. The same with Chief Keef, people think it's just repetitive gangster shit, but if you listen to what he's doing musically it's like jazz, in that way it's very innovative. That's what I liked about that Danny Brown interview, because he's respected by the 'hipster intelligentsia' but he's citing these other guys.
E: Where do you weigh in on that bubblegum rap debate, artists like Lil Yachty…
Lil Yachty is fucking awesome. Also, Lil Uzi Vert and Young Thug, those guys are fantastic. I've listened to them a lot. Modern R&B too like Ty Dolla $ign.
Some of it can be cheesy, but the same as great house music from the 90s is cheesy.
C: The thing is it's melodic and catchy, similar to Republic of Loose stuff? It'd have a pop sensibility to it too.
Usually when a new sound comes along it's annoying to people. Like Kanye West, a lot of people are irriated by what he does, but that's where innovation comes from.
E: Like punk in the 70s when it emerged…
Yeah exactly, all innovative music is weird and annoying at the time.
E: Even Young Thug putting forward femine ideals too…
Yeah that's what punk was like too, hip hop is not rejecting that ultra-masculine, homophobic way and become a little more sophisticated.
E: I suppose that gives a glimpse of how you see the international music landscape, but I read a quote from you in an interview a few years back saying 'there simply needs to be better bands in Ireland'. How do you see it now?
I don't know what you guys think, but it's massively improved in my eyes. In the last three years particularly it's exponentially improved. It's very exciting. When we started doing this R&B and hip hop thing in Ireland there weren't really any bands doing it, but now there are loads and I think it's great.
Bands are just ripping off whatever was fucking hip in Britain last year, then by the time you get your shit together the music is three years out of date anyway. Irish music now is about people finding their own voice.
C: You mention a voice of Irish music. We were speaking earlier about TXFM closing and people mourning it like the death of a family member. But | [

Some Finished Works from the Nov. "Paint Out"
This just in... some finished paintings from OOPS artists from the November "Paint Out" in Swansboro... More to come soon!
I find the easiest way to photograph my artwork to publish on the web is to simply shot a digital image of my work outside in the shade. Remember to hold the camera steady, turn off the flash, shot straight on, and make sure you are shooting in a solid shaded area (no dappled light).
Finished paintings by Brenda Behr from November "Paint Out"
We were blessed to have artist Brenda Behr join us for our recent "Paint Out". She resides in Goldsboro and traveled to spend the day painting along the Carolina Coast and participate in our November outing. Her first painting was done on Emerald Isle before we started and her second one was done during the "paint out" on the small island between the bridges in Swansboro.
Although OOPS is made up of Onslow County artists we'd like to take this opportunity to stress that artists from the region can join us anytime... an open invitation is always extended to Brenda and any other regional artist. Come join us!
More finished works from OOPS artists will be posted within the next couple weeks... so stay tuned! I'll be away on a plein air trip to the Blue Ridge for ten days so please bear with any delays.
Thanks again Brenda! Visit Brenda's site here... Brenda Behr. She is also in the process of building a personal blog and promises to share with us once it is finished.
Karen picked us out a great location for November in the picturesque coastal town of Swansboro... Stephen Greer has has equally picked a GREAT location for our next "Paint Out" in December... The Aman Farm.
It gives an artist many options to paint from... including an old country lane, tobacco barn, old cemetery, huge oak trees, and open fields. A beautiful spot which may not be around in the future with plans to four-lane Piney Green Road.
The location is near the corner of Piney Green and Old 30 Roads. Simply follow Piney Green Road and turn at the light onto Old 30 Road at the Kangaroo Quick Mart... (Old 30 meets Piney Green Road about half way between the length of Piney Green road which runs between Hwy 17 and Hwy 24). Once you turn the scene is immediately on your left with parking on the right hand side in Catherine Aman's yard. Catherine was kind enough to give us permission to paint on her private property and park at her house. Thanks Catherine! We bumped the time up to 1:00 PM since the time change and it's getting dark earlier.
Mark your calendar for December 9th at 1:00 PM... See ya there!
Photographer, Thomas Brock, shares his photos from our recent "Paint Out"
Photographer, Thomas Brock, shares his photos from our recent "Paint Out" in Swansboro. You can view them here. There are also some photos of a short walk through Swansboro with Cindy Archbell, another accomplished photographer who also enjoyed photographing the day.
Had a BLAST at Swansboro "Paint Out"!!!!
OOPS members endured the brisk weather to enjoy another GREAT time of plein air painting together at our November "Paint Out" in Swansboro. Several new faces joined the ranks including artist Brenda Behr from Goldsboro. We met several people and were even interviewed by the Tideland News.
and Joseph ( a six year young artist).
Pictured left to right: Bernie, Dean, Karen, Mitchell, Donna, Stephen, Donna, and Earl.
More photos and finished painting shots coming soon!
Do you know who the statue is of in the painting below and what he was noted for in history?
en plein aire, 3-29-2007 by Bernie Rosage Jr.
The small coastal town of Swansboro, North Carolina has a quaint friendly atmosphere aptly earning its nickname..."Friendly City by the Sea". The town was incorporated in 1783, and named for Samuel Swann, a former Speaker in the North Carolina legislature. The town's main attractions are its beautiful waterfront views and its quaint downtown, filled with boutiques, shops and del | [

Why Musk Pulled the Plug on Tesla Going Private
William Maley posted a topic in Tesla
If there is a trend at Tesla, it's that there's always more to the various stories. Case in point: On Friday night, CEO Elon Musk posted a piece on Tesla's blog saying that plans have been scrapped about taking the company private. "Although the majority of shareholders I spoke to said they would remain with Tesla if we went private, the sentiment, in a nutshell, was 'please don't do this," Musk wrote. But what led him to this decision? Over the weekend, Bloomberg, The New York Times and Wall Street Journal published pieces into Musk's reversal. The short of it comes down to Musk jumped the gun with his announcement earlier this month on Twitter without making sure everything was in place. This from the New York Times - emphasis mine. Let's begin with Saudi Arabia. As we reported earlier this month, Musk said in a blog post that he believed Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund could provide the funding necessary for the move to go private. This was based on discussions between the two, along with the fund purchasing a small stake into the company. The Saudi's didn't share the same enthusiasm. While the fund was open to make a significant investment into Tesla to hedge the country against oil and help attract tech expertise, sources tell Bloomberg the fund was only interested in a minority stake. The two hadn't reached an agreement on the possible terms according to a source, before Musk made his post announcing the fund. The Wall Street Journal learned from a government official that Musk's post angered some senior officials in the kingdom. Some officials wondered about Musk's "health as well as the role he would play in the company." This might explain some of reasoning behind the possibility of Saudi Arabia's PIF investing to Lucid Motors - something we brought to light last week. Meanwhile, there were concerns at Tesla about Saudi Arabia. Some complained to Musk about selling a large chunk of shares to a foreign oil producer wouldn't be a good look. As for the private investors, the Journal reports that Goldman Sachs and private-equity firm were brought in to help facilitate a deal. Last Wednesday, the two presented Musk a roster of investors including Volkswagen and Silver Lake itself (promising to contribute up to $30 billion according to sources). But these weren't the investors that Musk wanted as he was suspicious of rival car companies, along with losing a number of small investors. There would also be a catch as the two explained the money being provided would have strings attached such as having a lot of say in how the company is run. A day later, Musk met with the board saying that he would be withdrawing the idea of going private. Source: Bloomberg, New York Times, Wall Street Journal (Subscription Required) View full article

was 'please don't do this," Musk wrote. But what led him to this decision? Over the weekend, Bloomberg, The New York Times and Wall Street Journal published pieces into Musk's reversal. The short of it comes down to Musk jumped the gun with his announcement earlier this month on Twitter without making sure everything was in place. This from the New York Times - emphasis mine. Let's begin with Saudi Arabia. As we reported earlier this month, Musk said in a blog post that he believed Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund could provide the funding necessary for the move to go private. This was based on discussions between the two, along with the fund purchasing a small stake into the company. The Saudi's didn't share the same enthusiasm. While the fund was open to make a significant investment into Tesla to hedge the country against oil and help attract tech expertise, sources tell Bloomberg the fund was only interested in a minority stake. The two hadn't reached an agreement on the possible terms according to a source, before Musk made his post announcing the fund. The Wall Street Journal learned from a government official that Musk's post angered some senior officials in the kingdom. Some officials wondered about Musk's "health as well as the role he would play in the company." This might explain some of reasoning behind the possibility of Saudi Arabia's PIF investing to Lucid Motors - something we brought to light last week. Meanwhile, there were concerns at Tesla about Saudi Arabia. Some complained to Musk about selling a large chunk of shares to a foreign oil producer wouldn't be a good look. As for the private investors, the Journal reports that Goldman Sachs and private-equity firm were brought in to help facilitate a deal. Last Wednesday, the two presented Musk a roster of investors including Volkswagen and Silver Lake itself (promising to contribute up to $30 billion according to sources). But these weren't the investors that Musk wanted as he was suspicious of rival car companies, along with losing a number of small investors. There would also be a catch as the two explained the money being provided would have strings attached such as having a lot of say in how the company is run. A day later, Musk met with the board saying that he would be withdrawing the idea of going private. Source: Bloomberg, New York Times, Wall Street Journal (Subscription Required)
Elon Musk: On Second Thought, Tesla Won't Go Private
Over two weeks ago, Tesla CEO Elon Musk took everyone by surprise by announcing his intention to take Tesla private. But those plans have been scrapped. Last night, Musk published a blog post saying that he had met with the board and "let them know that I believe the better path is for Tesla to remain public. The Board indicated that they agree." "Although the majority of shareholders I spoke to said they would remain with Tesla if we went private, the sentiment, in a nutshell, was 'please don't do this," wrote Musk. In a separate statement, Tesla's board of directors confirmed Musk's decision. "Yesterday, we held a Board meeting, during which Elon reported on the work he and his advisors have been doing in connection with this effort. Elon communicated to the Board that after having done this work and considered all factors, he believes the better path is to no longer pursue a transaction for taking Tesla private. After discussing this, we dissolved the Special Committee. The Board and the entire company remain focused on ensuring Tesla's operational success, and we fully support Elon as he continues to lead the company moving forward," the statement says. This saga began with a tweet back on August 7th, This tweet sent everyone into a tizzy and caused NASDAQ to halt trading of Tesla stock for a few hours. There was one big question, how was Tesla going to fund this? Musk revealed a week later that it would be Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund, though reports say the fund isn't so thrilled about this idea. As we reported earlier this week, the fund is in talks with another electric automaker, Lucid Motors. The announcement has prompted the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to subpoena the company, along with a number of lawsuits from upset investors. Source: Tesla, Bloomberg

weeks ago, Tesla CEO Elon Musk took everyone by surprise by announcing his intention to take Tesla private. But those plans have been scrapped. Last night, Musk published a blog post saying that he had met with the board and "let them know that I believe the better path is for Tesla to remain public. The Board indicated that they agree." "Although the majority of shareholders I spoke to said they would remain with Tesla if we went private, the sentiment, in a nutshell, was 'please don't do this," wrote Musk. In a separate statement, Tesla's board of directors confirmed Musk's decision. "Yesterday, we held a Board meeting, during which Elon reported on the work he and his advisors have been doing in connection with this effort. Elon communicated to the Board that after having done this work and considered all factors, he believes the better path is to no longer pursue a transaction for taking Tesla private. After discussing this, we dissolved the Special Committee. The Board and the entire company remain focused on ensuring Tesla's operational success, and we fully support Elon as he continues to lead the company moving forward," the statement says. This saga began with a tweet back on August 7th, This tweet sent everyone into a tizzy and caused NASDAQ to halt trading of Tesla stock for a few hours. There was one big question, how was Tesla going to fund this? Musk revealed a week later that it would be Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund, though reports say the fund isn't so thrilled about this idea. As we reported earlier this week, the fund is in talks with another electric automaker, Lucid Motors. The announcement has prompted the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to subpoena the company, along with a number of lawsuits from upset investors.

Waymo Scraps Plans For Human Intervention In Dangerous Situations
William Maley posted an article in Automotive Industry
A number of companies that are working on autonomous driving systems are implementing features that require a driver to take control in hairy situations. But Waymo, the self-driving unit of Alphabet (Google's parent company) recently revealed they have stopped developing these features. The reason is simple, drivers lacked the awareness to take over driving. Waymo's CEO John Krafcik told reporters yesterday the decision to scrap this technology comes down to experiments done back in 2013 with Google employees that were filmed. The videos shown for the first time outside of Google showed people messing on their phones, putting on makeup, and even someone deciding to take a nap. "What we found was pretty scary. It's hard to take over because they have lost contextual awareness," said Krafcik. After the napping incident, plans for a driver to intervene were scrapped. Since then, Waymo has been working on technologies that didn't require human interaction. As such, Waymo's Chrysler Pacificas running in Phoenix, AZ only have two 'drive' buttons: one to start a drive and the other to tell the vehicle to pull over at its earliest convenience.

Honda Reveals An Automatic Was Considered for Civic Type R
William Maley posted an article in Honda
The Honda Civic Type R is only available with a six-speed manual which limits the possible group of buyers. But according to CarAdvice, Honda was considering an automatic option of some sort for the Type R. Yuji Matsumochi, assistant large project leader for the 10th-generation Civic's powertrain told the Australian outlet that the Japanese automaker was looking at offering either a conventional automatic or a dual-clutch transmission to broaden the appeal for buyers. But the decision was made to only offer a manual due to weight concerns. "The Type R needs a lightweight powertrain because it is front-wheel-drive, and needs lightweight powertrain systems. So, the engine is a little bit heavy, so the transmission side needs to be more lightweight," said Matsumochi. "If we applied an automatic transmission, or dual-clutch transmission, for a 400Nm engine, it would be very heavy weight, and very big. The front weight would be very heavy." Source: CarAdvice

Alfa Romeo Scraps Plans For Giulia Wagon
William Maley posted an article in Alfa Romeo
Alfa Romeo was planning to build out the Giulia lineup with a coupe, convertible, and wagon. But one of those variants has been canned. Alfa Romeo's manufacturing chief, Alfredo Altavilla tells Car Magazine that plans for the wagon have been canceled. "We decided not to do a Giulia Sportwagon. Do we really need it if the Stelvio SUV [below] drives that well? Maybe not. With our fine-tuning, the Stelvio can capture all the people who would otherwise have been interested in the SW." Alfa's reasons for canceling the wagon makes sense. More and more people are turning to the SUVs and crossovers. Why spend the money on developing a model that might not sell as well as an SUV?

the Avista
William Maley posted a topic in Buick
As we reported last month, Buick decided not to send the Avista into production. While the reason given at the time was due to not "enough enthusiasm for the concept," we had a sneaking suspicion there was more to that decision. Sure enough, Automotive News chatted with Buick global brand chief Duncan Aldred who explained the Avista wasn't "a massive opportunity in China." There is also the matter of priorities of which projects should go ahead or not. "Emotionally, you'd love to build it. I would buy one with my own money and put it in the garage," said Aldred. "The trouble is, I'm never looking at only one project. I'm always looking at several. I've got to weigh the pros and cons of each. There are some strong contenders in that consideration." Aldred also confirmed the rumor that the idea of Buick designers planning a four-door version of the Avista. This was first reported by Motor Trend in February "We looked at that. We've even visualized it. It would look wonderful as a four-door as well," said Aldred. Source: Automotive News (Subscription Required) View full article

VW News: As the Diesel Emits: German Transport Minister To Hold Talks With U.S., Volkswagen Puts A Halt On U.S. Restructuring
William Maley posted a topic in Volkswagen Automotive Group
The Volkswagen diesel scandal has prompted the German transport minister to meet with the counterpart in the U.S. According to Reuters, Alexander Dobrindt will be holding talks today with Anthony Foxx, the U.S. Secretary of Transportation about the scandal. The report goes on to say that Dobrindt hopes to meet with officials from the EPA. That's not all that is taking place in the U.S. for Volkswagen. Another report from Reuters says the company has put plans of overhauling the management and overall strategy for the U.S. on hold till they deal with the litany of lawsuits and penalties. "What matters more than anything else right now is to sort out this disaster," a source said. "If we fail to do that, then questions that are completely different (than the future U.S. leadership) will come up," Now one of items that this decision affects is finding someone to take the place of North American head Winfried Vahland, who stepped down a few weeks after being announced to the position.

Obama signs new $105 billion highway bill
President Obama on July 6 signed signed into law a combined transportation, student loan and flood insurance bill at a White House event.
The House and Senate on June 29 passed a new two-year $105 billion surface transportation reauthorization bill, Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century (MAP-21), the AASHTO Journal reports. The measure, H.R. 4348, passed the House 373-52, just before the June 30 expiration of the ninth extension of SAFETEA-LU. The Senate passed the bill 74-19, according to the AASHTO Journal report.
Pete Ruane, president and CEO of the American Road & Transportation Builders Association (ARTBA) says that both Republicans and Democrats deserve a lot of credit for the new surface transportation law, pointing out that the law is going to restore public confidence in the federal highway and transit investment program.
"This wasn't business as usual, just 'rearranging the deck chairs,' adding pet programs and throwing money at congressional earmarks," Ruane said in a written statement. "The new law is truly a 'good government' measure that makes the significant program reforms necessary to set the stage for meaningful, transparent and accountable federal transportation investments in the future."
Ruane says that instead of having Congressional earmarks, the law focuses federal dollars "on meeting critical national needs like efficient freight movement and driving down the number of motor vehicle crashes that result in unnecessary American deaths and injuries.
"It eliminates, consolidates or streamlines dozens of programs, giving state and local governments more decision-making control," Ruane added in the press statement. "It opens the door to more private investment in large, congestion-busting transportation projects. And, most importantly, it ushers in performance standards and reporting requirements so that the public will now know how their federal transportation dollars are being used and what kind of return on investment they are receiving."
Ron Summers, senior vice president, Materials Division, for Glendora, Calif.-based CalPortland Co., lauded the bill, saying that it assures the employment of 3 million Americans in the construction industry, where unemployment has outpaced the national rate.
National Stone, Sand & Gravel Association (NSSGA) President and CEO Joy Pinniger says the bill will help put the aggregates industry back on the road to economic growth.
"Every $1 million in aggregates sales creates 19.5 jobs, and every dollar of industry output returns $1.58 to the economy," Pinniger said in a written statement from NSSGA. She noted that the bill includes reforms that consolidate programs and eliminate program redundancies, as well as expediting the project approval process.
U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood calls the passage of transportation bill "a good, bipartisan bill that will create jobs, strengthen our transportation system and grow our economy." LaHood notes in an official press statement that the bill "provides states and communities with two years of steady funding to build the roads, bridges and transit systems they need."
Lisa Carson, marketing manager for KPI-JCI and Astec Mobile Screens, which heads up The Road Connection, a nationwide initiative to highlight the need for increased road and infrastructure funding, echoed these sentiments. Carson also noted that the "measure is far from perfect," [but] it gives our contractors and dealers the stability they need to continue their operations and provide jobs to millions of Americans. As an American manufacturer, we know that this bill will help stimulate equipment sales, which will be used to fix our crumbling roads and bridges."
Rep. John Mica (R-Fla.), the chairman of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee calls the bill "the jobs bill for the 112th Congress." Mica says, "The unprecedented reforms in this legislation — cutting red tape, truly making projects 'shovel ready,' shrinking the size of the federal bureaucracy, attracting more private sector participation, and giving states more flexibility to address their critical priorities — will ensure that we more effectively move forward with major highway and bridge improvements and put Americans back to work."
Despite this progress after three years of short-term extensions, Congress still has to worry about the solvency of the Highway Trust Fund | [

The 16 Most Spectacular Deserts In The World
People may often think of deserts as hot places; however, some deserts are quite cold. We have put together a list of some of the most incredible deserts in the world, proving that they can be diverse places.
Namib Desert – Africa
Stretching for 1,200 miles (1,931 kilometers), the Namib Desert happens to be one of the oldest on the planet – at least 55 million years. It is situated along the Atlantic coast of Africa in the countries of Namibia, Angola, and South Africa. Although a desert, the land is inhabited by an impressive array of flora and fauna, including 'desert' elephants that can go days without water.

Atacama Desert – South America
Situated west of the Andes along the Pacific coast in Peru and Chile, the Atacama Desert is known as the 'driest place on Earth'. Parts of the desert have never seen a drop of rain since records have been kept. This fact might lead you to believe that this area is devoid of life, but that's not true. More than a million people call this desert home. Due to its location along the coast, the Atacama is cooler than most deserts and is frequently covered with fog.

Sahara Desert – Africa
Covering most of Northern Africa – 3.6 million square miles – the Sahara Desert is the third largest desert on the planet and the largest hot desert. While many people often think of the gorgeous sand dunes that are found in the Sahara, they only comprise a small portion. The landscape is primarily made of rocky hamada, or barren land with rocky plateaus. You'll also find small patches of grassland (albeit sparse), shrubs of the desert variety, mountains, and salt flats. The Sahara is also home to an impressive array of flora and fauna, including several species of foxes.

Gobi Desert – China/Mongolia
The Gobi Desert is a beast of a desert spread across parts of southern Mongolia and northwestern China. It is famous for its role in the Mongol Empire and important stops along the Silk Road. The Gobi is also known for its extreme temperatures from as high as 122 degrees Fahrenheit (50 degrees Celsius) in the summer and extremely low temperatures in the winter. The area is also rich in fossils, including dinosaur eggs, and animals like Bactrian camels, Siberian ibex, and Gobi brown bears.

Mojave Desert – Nevada/California
The Mojave Desert covers portions of southeastern California and southern Nevada, along with small sections of northwestern Arizona and southwestern Utah. This desert is identifiable by the protected Joshua trees and is considered a 'high desert.' However, the incredible Death Valley, which is within the Mojave, is actually 282 feet (86 meters) below sea level. The Mojave is also home to the stunning Valley of Fire State Park plus many towns and museums, making it a very popular tourist destination.

Antarctic Desert – Antarctica
Winter darkness, cold, ice – these might be some of the words used to describe the continent of Antarctica. But, did you know you can add desert to that list? That's right – Antarctica does not see enough precipitation to qualify as anything other than a desert. What little snow it does receive never melts and turns into ice. You won't find any flora except for moss and algae. As for animals, you will see whales, seals and, of course, penguins.

Sonoran Desert – USA/Mexico
Spread over portions of Arizona, California, and Mexico, the Sonoran Desert is a beautiful landscape brimming with endemic fauna and flora, including the Saguaro and Organ Pipe cacti. The area is also rich in culture with many Native American tribes calling the area home, plus cities such Phoenix and | [

Thar Desert – India/Pakistan
Also known as the Great Indian Desert, the Thar Desert is located in northwestern India and part of eastern Pakistan. The most populated desert on the planet, the Thar Desert is home to 83 people per square kilometer. The landscape is identifiable by large shifting sand dunes, which cover most of the desert, along with alluvial plains and salt lakes that appear during monsoon season. The biodiversity is impressive with more than 140 species of birds, 23 species of lizards, 25 snake species, plus the chinkara, or Indian gazelle, to name but a few.

Rub' al Khali – Saudi Arabia
Known as the Empty Quarter in English, the Rub' al Khali is the largest sand desert in the world that covers 225,000 square miles (583,000 square kilometers) throughout portions of Saudi Arabia, Oman, Yemen and the United Arab Emirates. The name 'Empty Quarter' is appropriate given its harsh environment, which does not allow much of anything to thrive there. However, that does not take away from its beauty.

Tabernas Desert – Spain
The Tabernas Desert is known as 'mainland Europe's only desert' and is located in southeastern Spain, north of Almería. Serving as a locale for many popular movies over the years, especially spaghetti westerns, visitors will find Western-style towns dotting the landscape. As with many deserts, the area is home to many reptiles, amphibians, and birds. While there are not a lot of mammals, you might see an Algerian hedgehog.

Taklamakan Desert – Central Asia
The second-largest shifting-sand desert in the world, China's Taklamakan Desert covers an area of 130,000 square miles (337,000 square kilometers). The desert is an incredibly harsh environment with lows going well below zero degrees in the winter, and water sources are almost nonexistent, making the area almost devoid of flora and fauna. Even those on the Silk Road tried to avoid the area by traveling on the fringes of the desert.

Pinnacles Desert – Australia
Interested in seeing nature-made art? Then be sure to visit the Pinnacles Desert in Australia where Mother Nature created incredible ancient sculptures, decorating the western coastline. Located in the Namburg National Park, the limestone pillars, of which there are thousands, rise several feet above the ground. The area is also home to wildlife such as wild emus and galahs. Since it is set along the coast, you'll also find white sandy beaches nearby.

Salar de Uyuni – Bolivia
Once a pre-historic lake known as Lago Minchín, it covered southwest Bolivia, and when it dried up, it left behind the world's largest salt flats, measuring 4,633 square miles (12,000 square kilometers). Located at the high altitude of 11,985 feet, or 3,653 meters, the Salar de Uyuni is a gorgeous and dazzling site of what time and Mother Nature can produce. The best way to see this beauty is to take a guided 4×4 tour.

In my 37 years in the arts. I have been published in numerous magazines, publications, and ad campaigns. Such as: American Artist Magazine, Architectural Digest, Interior Design Magazine, Garden Design, Chicago land Gardening Magazine, Chicago Tribune, Suburban Herald, National and International Wildlife Magazine, and the National Illustrators Annual . My art pieces can be seen in 27 countries and in almost every state in the US.
After selling my first 3 pieces to the Michigan State Chapter of Ducks Unlimited at age twelve, I started pursuing an art career in earnest. Throughout Junior High and High School I participated in art shows, fairs and adult classes outside of school and received many awards. Some of the shows included: The National Ceramic Association, receiving two Freddie's and best of show, Cranbrook Institute of Art, National Junior Wildlife Artist Competition, receiving second place, Professional shows: for both The National and International Wildlife Associations and many other state, local and scholastic based shows.
While completing a three year program at The American Academy of Art in Chicago, Illinois I continued doing shows and started freelance illustration. This paid my way through college. During this time I received two Associate Degrees in Fine Art and Illustration. Some of the most notable shows and awards Included: The National Society of Illustrators Show in New York, Illinois Duck and Salmon Stamp Competitions, The Molsen Golden National Ad Campaign and Competition were I received first place and Eleven Best of Shows in Chicago and Suburban Artist Guild sponsored shows. Some of my freelance illustration clients included: Leo Burnett, Hanlynn Peterson, Rockwell International, Emile Anderson and Sears, Service Management Magazine and Griffith Studios.
Three months before graduating college in 1983 I was hired by Skyline Design in Chicago as their first Artist. After years of doubling business growth, Skyline named me as their Senior Artist. My responsibilities included: design, presentations and execution of a huge variety of artwork. Not to mention staff training and job coordination. Highlights of our client list was: Nick's Fish market, The Snuggeries, Pica Dillies Restaurants nationwide, Northern Trust Banks, Marriott and Sheridan Hotels and Resorts International, Burger King and McDonalds Restaurants Internationally, Sea Worlds, Disney, The Luxor, Treasure Island, Empress and Circus Circus Hotels and Casinos and Portillo's restaurants along with innumerous other restaurants, clubs and private individual residences and commission pieces.
The artwork consisted of carved glass, carved and painted glass, sculptural and carved pieces ranging from bass reliefs to full figures rendered in everything wood to clay to fiberglass and resin, to murals, paintings, signage, finishes, custom furniture and lighting fixtures. I had hands on involvement in every aspect from client presentation and consulting to design and layout to execution and installation.
During my fifteen years with Skyline Design, I learned much about new media and the actual business of art. As Skyline grew its focus changed and I started to find myself in more of a managerial and teaching position that was rewarding in the beginning. But! I needed to get back to what I loved. Throughout those years I had maintained a small but rewarding freelance clientele. In November of 1997 I purchased a building at 1016 North Ashland Avenue in Chicago, officially opening the doors to my own company I.D.E.A. My intentions were to regain creative control over my art by specializing in custom work combining both my formal fine arts training and my commercial experience. My emphasis has been to create one-of-a-kind works treating every project and client as an individual.
Since the beginning Ideas. Design. Excellence-in. Art, I have worked with many commercial and residential, design and architectural firms not to mention individuals to create both artistic and unique environments and pieces to meet their needs and those of their clients. Here is a short list of Clients: Interiors By Bruce, Chicago Art Source, Hanna Design, Design Pour Vous, Sutherland Architectural, The Poulten Group, Arther Anderson, Coldwell Banker, Mc Henry State Bank, Starbucks Coffee, AAA Motor Vacations, Little Company of Mary Hospital, Absolute Vodka, Robert Morris College, C.D. Peacock and The Hyatt Group, not | [

Gunman shot dead in France after killing 3, wounding 5 in supermarket and car attacks
Three people were killed and five others wounded Friday in southern France after a gunman stole a car, fired at police officers and took hostages in a supermarket in what French authorities are treating as a terror attack.
One person died in the carjacking, and two others were killed at the market, the French Interior Ministry said.
Police shot dead the gunman, French media reported, after a four-hour standoff at the Super U supermarket in the town of Trèbes.
An investigation has been opened into murder and attempted murder "in connection with a terrorist in Trèbes," the French prosecutor's office told CNN.
"Our country has suffered an Islamist terrorist attack," French President Emmanuel Macron told reporters. "We've paid the price of the danger of the terrorist threat in blood for several years.
"I want to state my absolute determination to the nation to lead this fight."
The ISIS-affiliated Amaq News Agency said that the gunman was a "soldier" of the militant group and that he had responded to its call to attack coalition countries, a reference to the U.S.-led coalition fighting ISIS in Syria and Iraq. Amaq offered no evidence ISIS had any contact with the attacker.
"This attack has been claimed by ISIS, and it is currently being analyzed," Macron said.
The Interior Ministry identified Redouane Lakdim, 26, as the gunman. He was known to authorities for minor crimes, including drug offenses, Interior Minister Gérard Collomb said.
A local prosecutor said the attack appeared to be "ISIS-inspired," CNN affiliate BFM TV reported. Witnesses said the man shouted, "I am a Daesh soldier," using another name for ISIS.
A BFM TV reporter at the scene said the attacker claimed to be an ISIS soldier and demanded the release of Salah Abdeslam , the suspected mastermind of the November 2015 Paris attacks .
CNN could not independently confirm the gunman made the demand. Abdeslam is on trial in Belgium.
France has faced a string of terror attacks in recent years, including the Paris attacks and other smaller-scale assaults. The country remained under a state of emergency for about two years after the Paris attacks. It was lifted late last year.
How the rampage began
The violence unfolded when the attacker stole a car, killing one person in the vehicle and gravely wounding another, said Collomb, the interior minister.
The gunman then shot at four National Police officers who were jogging in Carcassonne. The driver tried to run the officers down. One of them was wounded, but he is not in serious condition.
The gunman proceeded to the Super U market in Trèbes. He entered the market, firing his weapon and killing two people. He took several others hostage.
Police found the car, and SWAT teams surrounded the market.
Collomb said a National Police lieutenant colonel shot the gunman after offering himself for at least one of the hostages. The officer was also seriously wounded. The order of the shots was unclear, Collomb said. Police then raided the store after hearing gunshots.
Two others were wounded at the market, an Interior Ministry spokesman said.
"People were absolutely calm before and never thought that there could be an attack in a town like this," Collomb told reporters, adding that the risk of terrorism in France remained "very high."
'Totally deserted'
A supermarket employee who fled as shots were fired told BFM that he and about 50 others had been on lockdown in a car park.
Madeline Fuhrman, a witness, said that Trèbes had gone quiet after the attack.
"It's totally deserted now. Absolutely every shop is closed. There's not a soul in sight," she said.
Macron, who was in Belgium for a summit of European Union leaders, returned to France and spoke to reporters after a crisis meeting at the Interior Ministry.
The French leader hailed law enforcement's response.
"The forces of order intervened with remarkable speed, both to contain the individual who hid away with his hostages, to help one of the victims who was still alive who he had left in the surrounding area," Macron said.
He singled out the officer who volunteered to be traded for a hostage and saluted his bravery.

The Andes Mountains
The Andes Mountain Range
The current geography of NOA is a consequence of the geological history of one of the most impressive chains in the world: The Andes Mountains.
That is why they deserve an important place here, where they tell about their origin and evolution, and how they built, over 10 million years ago, the varied and wonderful landscape of the Argentine Northwest that we see today.
In his "Journey Around the World," Charles Darwin wrote in 1833:
"I have seen in the Andes Mountains the evident evidence that huge mountains have been broken into a thousand pieces, how a crust of bread can be broken, and that the different layers that made it up, horizontal as they were, have become vertical."
The Andes of the Argentine Northwest, show clear evidence of what Darwin affirmed.
The Andean chain extends along the western coast of South America, along some 8,000 km and reaches its maximum height on the Aconcagua hill (6,959 m) located in the province of Mendoza. Its origin is a consequence of the crinkling of the continental crust due to the thrust produced by the Pacific Ocean plate. As is known, the terrestrial globe is formed by a mosaic of continental and oceanic plates. The continental plates, lighter, are of granitic composition, while the oceanic plates, heavier, are of basaltic composition. Both the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific, run underwater mountain ranges, where molten material is pouring from the depths.
That magma hell is pushing the plates, which, when converging, deform giving birth to the mountains. The Pacific slab is known worldwide as "Nazca Plate" and its sinking and thrust of the continent is responsible for the rise of all the NOA hills. The permanent friction of the plates on the continental edge gives rise to tensions that are released in the form of earthquakes and hence their greater intensity on the Pacific coast.
When the plate, which in the Andean zone of the Argentine Northwest sinks with 30 ° of inclination, reaches a certain depth, it sinks and the magma rises giving birth to the volcanoes that we see along the Argentine-Chilean limit. Thus were born some of the most important volcanoes on the planet such as the Ojos del Salado (6,880 m) and the LLullaillaco (6,723 m), and the calderas (giant craters) of La Pacana and Galán, with 60 km and 40 km in diameter respectively.
On the other hand, the vapors released from the magma and richly mineralized gave rise to the formation of valuable metallic deposits, such as those of copper in the Chilean desert. The central portion of the Andes is the most spectacular for its geographical features and geological phenomena. The central Andes are the most vivid expression of how a mountain chain is formed and evolves. Its roots are located 70 km deep, so together with the Himalayas, it is the part where the bark reaches its maximum thickness.
Likewise, the Andes register one of the most important topographic highlights, since in a short distance, between the Peruvian-Chilean trench more than 7 km deep and the mountain ranges that touch the 7 km high, a drop of 14 is reached kilometres.
The Andes, seen figuratively, are like a gigantic wave whose crest coincides with the highest part of the mountain range and extends at the foot of the Chaco-Paraná plain. The wave is advancing, as evidenced by the migration of the volcanic chains that over millions of years were changing from the Pacific edge itself to the international limit where we see it today. In addition, the mountains are moving more and more to the east, due to a complex phenomenon of shortening and stacking of the land, so in some millions of years the NOA will rise and then be swallowed by the Andean devouring machine.
The Yacoraite Formation, a "rib" of the Andes
The Yacoraite Formation is one of the "ribs" of the Andes. Its name is due to the fact that it was defined and studied in the Yacoraite River in the Quebrada de Humahuaca, by Dr. Juan Carlos Turner | [

; It was then studied by the largest specialist in the field: Dr. Rosa A. Marquillas of the National University of Salta (UNSa).
The Yacoraite Formation covers parts of Peru, Bolivia, Chile and northern Argentina and was formed between 65 and 70 million years ago, long before the Andes rose.
At that time, the NOA must have looked a little like The Bahamas, with a warm and humid climate, islands with tropical vegetation and a body of clean and temperate waters where crocodiles lived and a great variety of fish, among them the curious flying fish. On the wide beaches, the dinosaurs that left their prints for posterity were printed and that we can see today in the Tonco Valley and other places. The algae also left their testimony of carbonaceous horns, known as stromatolites.
The calcareous muds deposited at that time, over millions of years, hardened to form limestone, and preserved inside the bones of fish and crocodiles, algal structures, dinosaur footprints and even deposits of uranium, vanadium, copper and even that precious black liquid called oil. Not for nothing the wise German geologist Luis Brackenbusch when he visited Salta, at the end of the 19th century, called it the Oil Formation.
The Cuchuma well, in the limits of the Capital and General Güemes departments of the province of Salta, extracts oil precisely from levels of the Yacoraite Formation as well as the Caimancito wells in Jujuy and Palmar Largo, in Formosa.
About 65 million years ago and in coincidence with the extinction of dinosaurs, Yacoraite limestones were horizontal and at sea level. Then, within the last 10 million years, the tremendous forces of the crust that formed the Andes would come, that broke the layers of rocks, tilted them to the vertical, lifted them in some parts and sank them in others. Today, remains of the yellow limestones of Yacoraite appear at almost 5,000 m high in the Puna and 6,000 m or more deep in the Pichanal region, a vertical difference of 11,000 meters.
This gives a clear idea of how the rocks of northern Argentina were deformed, how the Andes split in two and why Darwin was so impressed on his South American trip. Like the German traveler Antony Zacharías Helms, who passed through northern Argentina in 1789 and was so impressed by the Tectonic configuration of the Andes, he was so impressed, and he left it written:
"Mountains as irregular and broken as in this part of the Cordilleras, with so much alternation of their component parts, I have not seen them in Hungary, in Saxony or in the Pyrenees. Nowhere does a revolution of nature seem to have been so general as in South America, there is evidence of it everywhere. "
The aridization of the Andes
The Andean building has changed its vegetation cover both in quality and quantity, from extensive forests that extended from the Atacama Desert to the Calchaquí Valleys some 40 million years ago to total aridity in some cases or a mantle of natural bonsai as those who occupy the Puna today. The evolution of aridity must be understood from the depth of geological time.
The Andean region in which we live has changed its vegetation cover over time in response to the progressive orogenic uprising. The Andes have suffered a progressive geological aridity. Until 40 million years ago, the Puna was a tropical region with large rivers that drained from the interior of what is now Chile to the Atlantic. The landscape conformation was different. In the middle of the present desert of the north of Chile there was a volcanic chain, whose ashes were carried by the winds of the east towards the Pacific. These volcanoes disappeared with the passing of millions of years, destroyed by erosion, and their roots today constitute the rich copper deposits of that country.
The Puna at that time was almost at sea level, and its climate was warm and humid. The discovery of fossil remains of crocodiles and turtles, without going any further a few kilometers from San Antonio de los Cobres, prove this in a restrictive way. In addition to these reptiles lived a whole range of rare mammals, obviously all extinct, consistent with the clim | [

atic conditions prevailing at that time.
But that paradise was not going to last forever. The Andean movements began to raise bark segments that gradually abolished the Atlantic drainage of the rivers and turned the Puna into an endorheic basin, that is, with internal drainage. This began to occur at least 15 million years ago, when the first remains of salt lakes appeared, expressed in deposits of salt and plaster.
The elevation of mountainous reliefs began to curb the wet winds that came from the Atlantic, making the Puna gradually become what is known as "a desert in the shadow of the rains." Meanwhile the region that today occupies the Calchaquí Valleys was a spectacular jungle, with rivers that were born on the edge of the Puna and ran freely towards the Atlantic Ocean, without reliefs that interposed. Paleontologists found fossil fish remains with representatives of the scianid and cynodontid groups that currently inhabit rivers and lakes in low regions, in Neotropical Brazil.
Thus, while the puna progressively increased its aridization as the Andean spine broke and the humidity was retained more and more to the east, the western regions became increasingly arid until they reached the extreme degrees of hyperaridity that are recorded in the Atacama Desert in Chile. The aridity is so great that not only the exotic nitrogen minerals (nitrates) are formed but also the neighboring ocean fossa is clear of sediments as there are no rivers that transport them, and reach over the coast of Antofagasta more than 8,000 m deep
The Andes continued to grow, raising its tortuous crest of a prehistoric monster that stretches in the crust of South America, changing day by day, century to century and millennium to millennium, the nature of the landscape.
About 6 million years ago, the jungles still prevailed in the Calchaquí Valleys while in the Puna powerful mantles of rock salt, gypsum and borates were deposited. The presence of the Calchaquí jungles is demonstrated by the findings of fossil trunks and leaves discovered in Angastaco by Luisa Anzótegui of the Universidad del Nordeste (Corrientes).
There, the paleontologist of fossil flora discovered numerous evidences of large trees, various types of ferns, plants related to fig trees, fossil vines, to which we must add remains of crocodiles and turtles, all of which give an environment of high rainfall (more than 1,000 mm), high temperatures, low altitude above sea level (less than 500 m); that is a warm and humid subtropical environment, which has nothing to do with the current one. As you can see, the phytogeography of the place was very different a few million years ago, with a jungle of high-rise trees that reached the buttress of the Puna.
As more and more mountainous reliefs were formed eastward by the gradual elevation and thrust of the Andean orogenic forces, more and more the eastern humid winds slowed down and therefore more and more vegetation was removed. Today the Salta jungle, well represented in the Baritú National Park, is hundreds of kilometers east of where it was a few million years ago.
The Puna reached almost 4 km high above sea level and its low xerophytic vegetation recalls a small world of bonsai. Aridity has progressively progressed, without haste or pause, to the inexorable rhythm of geological time. A new change would take place with the arrival of sedentary man and the implantation of his animals that triggered the rhythm of erosion and aridization as proved by Ing. Carlos Saravia Toledo.
Today the issue of aridization is a matter of state, so it is good to know that for a holistic analysis we must incorporate the dimension of time. Why? Because time is the way that nature prevents everything from happening at the same time.

ChatGPT and Financial Reference Data
Leveraging LLMs like ChatGPT for Financial Reference Data

Introduction - Generative AI and Large Language Models
Business Descriptions
API Code Example
To Cover in future - Improvement and Customization
If you are like most people who have tried ChatGPT, you have been quite impressed by the results for a good reason. Generative AI is the new trending technology for 2023. DALLE-2 generates images, Copilot from Microsoft generates code, and ChatGPT responds with text. You are no doubt already aware that the latter ChatGPT (GPT stands for "generative pre-trained transformer") by OpenAI has become extremely popular. OpenAI is among the first companies to make the latest generation of a large language model (LLM) quickly and widely available for use by non-specialists.
In this post, I look into possible applications of large language models for financial reference data, mainly using OpenAI's current offering, which is not yet a production release. OpenAI has several models, but the most suitable model for generating reference data is text-davinci-003 (followed by text-curie-001). I use the text-davinci-003 model in the following examples, except for transcription and translation, which I evaluate using the Whisper Model and ChatGPT. The models are used without any additional tuning to improve performance. I have selected six areas to test.
Transcripts (Good)
Translations (Good)
Business Description Generation (Good)
Peer Companies (Good)
Symbology (require a lot of additional QA)
Company Executives (unusable)
Estimates (unusable)
Machine transcription, also known as Speech-to-Text or Automated Speech Recognition (ASR), uses machine learning to turn audio-containing speech into text. In the finance industry, this audio is usually from earnings calls, annual meetings, analyst calls, investor updates, etc. Around four months ago, OpenAI openly released the Whisper model, which is as good as a human expert for quality purposes. At the same time, Whisper is much more scalable and timely. These advantages make it trivial for a company to create transcription functionality powered by Whisper and start transcribing audio content even at a large scale. Sites like MarketBeat already provide free transcripts.
Machine translation, unlike machine transcription, is still not quite as good as a human expert. However, MT has improved dramatically over the last five years, and the quality of the better machine translation providers is quickly approaching human quality. See this article for a comparison of Google, Deepl, and ChatGPT. The speed and scalability MT brings more than offset minor quality issues, especially for translating news and other large, dynamic content sets. The reason that the primary financial data terminal providers and news aggregators are using MT less than you might expect them to has more to do with third-party content usage rights and contract considerations than with the capabilities of the technology itself.
The ability of LLMs to summarize text has dramatically improved, and using them for generating business descriptions of companies is now feasible. Market data providers have content teams writing that information for thousands of companies. Expect that work to be done by LLMs in the future and lightly QAed by people. The results will likely be less accurate but more timely as, due to the manual effort and cost, analysts currently update company descriptions infrequently. Using LLMs, the scope of coverage will increase, and many smaller companies will likely have up-to-date business descriptions provided as the cost for doing so decreases dramatically. See the below description for Tokyo Electron's business description to get an idea of the quality.
Tokyo Electron is a global company that provides a wide range of advanced technology solutions for the semiconductor, flat panel display, and photovoltaic industries. The company specializes in the development and manufacture of high-quality equipment and materials that are used in the production of semiconductor chips, flat panel displays, and solar panels. Some of the key products and services offered by Tokyo Electron include semiconductor manufacturing equipment, photolithography systems, chemical vapor deposition equipment, etching equipment, and testing and measurement systems. The company also provides maintenance, repair, and upgrade services to ensure that its customers are able to get the most out of their equipment | [

Overall, Tokyo Electron is a leading provider of advanced technology solutions for the semiconductor, flat panel display, and photovoltaic industries. Its products and services are used by companies around the world to produce high-quality, innovative products for a variety of applications.
The results for generating peer companies, primarily a summarization exercise, work well. What are peer companies to Tokyo Electron?
Some peer companies to Tokyo Electron include:
Lam Research Corporation
Applied Materials, Inc.
KLA Corporation
Hitachi High-Technologies Corporation
JSR Corporation
Sumco Corporation
Screen Semiconductor Solutions Co., Ltd.
Advantest Corporation
Are LLMs suitable for digging through online data for symbology purposes? Tokyo Electron's symbols
The ticker symbol for Tokyo Electron Limited is "TOELY" on the Tokyo Stock Exchange. WRONG
The company is also listed on the NASDAQ stock exchange under the ticker symbol "TOELY". CORRECT
Tokyo Electron TSE code
The TSE code for Tokyo Electron is "8035." CORRECT
The accuracy varies depending on how you word the question. However, symbology has the advantage that you have a good chance of immediately spotting a wrong answer. TSE ticker codes are always four or five-digit numbers.
The remaining questions are looking for specific information. The model returns plausible-looking answers that are also very wrong. Notice it generates Japanese names for a Japanese company, but unfortunately, not the correct ones. Who are Tokyo Electron's executives?
Tokyo Electron's executives include:
Tetsuro Higashi - President and Chief Executive Officer WRONG
Keiji Kato - Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer WRONG
Shunichi Miyanaga - Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer WRONG
Tetsuro Ii - Executive Vice President and Chief Technology Officer WRONG
Takayuki Yano - Executive Vice President and Chief Legal Officer WRONG
Tokyo Electron Financials as reported?
Tokyo Electron Limited is a Japanese semiconductor and flat panel display equipment manufacturer. According to its latest financial report (as of March 31, 2020), the company's net sales for the fiscal year were $9.2 billion, with a net income of $547 million. The company's assets totaled $7.5 billion, with liabilities of $3.3 billion. Tokyo Electron has a market capitalization of $16.5 billion and a price-to-earnings ratio of 19.5. The company's stock has been trading at around $61 per share. NOT USABLE
The OpenAI API is well-documented and extremely easy to use. For Python just install openai library at the command line via pip install openai and get an api key.
import openai
openai.api_key = "My secret api key"
response = openai.Completion.create(
model="text-davinci-003",
prompt="Peers of Tokyo Electron",
temperature=0,
max_tokens=100
print(response)
Certain substantial areas of Financial Reference data, such as transcripts, translations, business descriptions, peer companies, etc., no longer need to be done by humans and will instead be generated by large language models. The models bring speed and scalability to developing financial reference data. However, there are also reference data domains where humans are still needed, and the areas may surprise you. There are several drawbacks to using LLMs for financial reference data. Training sets for LLMs are now so large that it is costly and time-consuming to train models, and they can only be run periodically; as a result, their answers will be months old. A more significant drawback is that LLMs always have an answer, even if it is specious. If the models gave a clearly wrong answer, they would be easier to adjust for, but by their very nature, they come up with plausible-looking solutions even when they are wrong.
Moreover, there is an art to asking the question in the right way to get correct answers, called prompt engineering. Questions that involve some form of summarization work well, while specific questions requiring a specific answer are very much hit-or-miss. These weaknesses in current LLM | [

Q: rails 7 - test gem broken by upgrade? - all tests error before running I upgraded my rails 6 project to rails7 for better tailwind integration, and it runs fine, but when i started trying to run a test it now gives a strange error whatever the test.
If i remove all tests it passes, but adding in the testing test:
post_test.rb
require "test_helper"
class PostTest < ActiveSupport::TestCase
# test "the truth" do
# assert true
# end
test "the truth" do
assert true
end
end
gives me:
rails t
Running 1 tests in a single process (parallelization threshold is 50)
Run options: --seed 58982
# Running:
E
Error:
PostTest#test_the_truth:
NoMethodError: undefined method `each_value' for nil:NilClass

CDH Research Site & Fund
Thread: CDH Research Site & Fund
Dawn Torrence Ireland
http://www.cdhresearch.org
This web site is a project of CHERUBS - The Association of Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia Research, Awareness and Support. It is supported by volunteers and funding through CHERUBS, a 501(c)III Non-Profit Organization. Donations and sponsorships are greatly encouraged and appreciated to help keep this CDH Reseach site continuing, growing and leading the search for the cause and prevention of CDH.
CHERUBS Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia Research Survey is the combined efforts of over 2000 CDH families and medical professionals. It takes information on the medical, family and exposure histories of CDH patients and compares data to look for the cause, prevention and better treatment of Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia. Participation is voluntary, anonymous and free to all CDH families and medical staff. Data can be tabulated live for research and reference purposes.
A fund has been set up for raise money for Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia Research at
http://www.firstgiving.com/cdhresearch
You can donate there in honor / memory of a cherub or through PayPal at http://www.cdhresearch.org
This fundraising page is to help raise funds for the software needed to create and maintain secure database hosting for our CDH research database. This database includes information on over 2400 CDH patients and medical care providers - offering a very unique opportunity to research the cause, prevention and best medical treatments for Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia. Such software and off-site security that is needed for an undertaking this large costs approximately $500 per month. Rather than take funds out of our very small operating cost budget, we are appealing to members and the public to help fund this research venture. Site maintence, design and statistics is being done for free by volunteers. $6000 per year is needed solely for the database design and secure hosting, which is needed to follow federal privacy and HIPPA laws.
Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH) is a birth defect that occurs when the diaphragm does not fully form, allowing organs to enter the chest cavity preventing lung growth. CDH strikes 1 in every 2500 babies, of all races, religious backgrounds, and financial status - no matter how well the prenatal care.
Nearly 4 million babies are born in the United States each year. This means that approximately 1600 babies are born with CDH each year - in the U.S. alone! There are more babies born with CDH than with Cystic Fibrosis (1 in 3900) and it's almost as common as Spina Bifida (7 in 10,000) - yet, you probably have never heard of it until it affected someone that you love. CHERUBS is working hard to raise Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia Awareness!
The cause of Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia is not yet known.
50% of babies born with CDH do not survive and sometimes the remaining 50% have to overcome very difficult medical complications. Many CDH babies have minor lasting health problems such as feeding aversions, asthma, scoliosis, or short-term oxygen dependency. A small number have major lasting health problems such as ventilator dependency, brain damage, or hearing problems. Many patients have no long-lasting medical problems at all other than a scar from the CDH repair. CDH can occur alone or with other birth defects, and rarely, it occurs as part of a syndrome.

I will definately have to check that out later on tonight!I took a quick look the other day but didnt get to see them all...
Mommy to Haylee 01/26/2004 and My cherub Asher 07/04/2007- LCDH discovered at 18 weeks- medical termination at 24 weeks. Hypoplastic left lung and right jaw- pulmonary hypertension- Secundum type ASD- left liver lobe- stomach- appendix- and small bowel herniated www.freewebs.com/babyasher Ashers webpage http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dxS8F4dkHjE Ashers video montage
With 2500 members, all of us devastated by CDH and we have the chance to DO SOMETHING to help find the cause and prevention of CDH.... we have only 3 members who will help? Come on everyone, we have the world's largest CDH database - the most CDH babies with the most information. The CDH Study Group is amazing. They are studying the surgical treatment of CDH. But NO ONE BUT CHERUBS is studying the possible causes of CDH with so many cherubs as we are. Are we going to sit on this information and do nothing when we could really make a difference here? Or are we going to band together to get this research done?

I'm sorry. I donated to the trademark fund because that's the one I saw first, but I'm out of disposable income at this time. I can't work if I want Michael to have nursing (my insurance won't cover it and we're very close to the income cap for SSI; for that matter we don't get SSI in October because we're over), and he needs nursing coverage.
~Mel Mother of Michael: RCDH- ECMO (11 days)- cranial evacuation- VP shunt- hernia repair- g-tube- Nissen fundoplication- pyloroplasty- ASD and VSD closures- tracheostomy- hypospadias repair- pulmonary hypertension...but what he lacks in lung capacity he more than makes up with charisma!
Melissa, I totally understand! Actually the money you donated was over our cost for the trademark (we received a donation to cover that cost) so it's been moved over the research fund. So you've officially helped both funds! THANK YOU!!!!
I completely understand about the SSI and income and nursing and all that. I was under that same cloud when I had Shane, the $4 million dollar kid. Our healthcare system is horrible - no family should be stuck in that situation because their child was born sick. I couldn't work either when I had Shane for that same reason. His dad had to work a low paying job so we wouldn't lose SSI, which gave us his insurance. No insurance company would take the kid with every pre-existing condition, trach, vent, etc. Working hard to make little to pinch pennies to buy diapers some days because the govt says you can't make more money or your child has no medical services. When you really want to work and build a good life for your family! Horrible, just horrible. We thought about moving to Canada for the healthcare. I'm a Republican but boy do I wish the Dems would get that universal healthcare passed! No one understands how devastating a medical problem can be to every part of a family unless they've been through it. Ok, I'll get off | [

The Junior League of Birmingham is proud to present its 100 Acts of Service Campaign throughout the month of February. The mission of the initiative is to honor the life of Junior League Community Vice President Lee Ann Petty, who passed away Dec. 30, 2020. As Petty was dedicated to a life of service to her community and to others, the JLB is demonstrating their love for her and for Birmingham through promoting and providing outlets for community service. Inspired by an initiative being built by Petty herself, the JLB is coordinating service opportunities for not only Junior League members but the Birmingham community at large. The service areas encompass the JLB's four impact areas: Education & Culture, Economic Security & Financial Stability, Health & Wellness and Safety & Crisis.
Current service opportunities for the 100 Acts of Service initiative can be found below and will be updated as new opportunities are added:
Tackle Food Insecurity with JLB and Youth Towers:
Throughout February, the JLB is collecting pantry goods (small bags of sugar and flour, cooking oil, peanut butter), individual snacks (crackers, breakfast bars, fruit bars), dry goods (pasta, noodles), and snap-top non-perishable foods (soup, canned meats, fruit, vegetables) for Youth Towers, a local non-profit supporting homeless and high risk youth ages 19-26. The link for the Amazon wish list can be found here.
Help Fight COVID-19 with JLB and UAB:
The JLB is organizing volunteers to help at the community vaccination sites in Jefferson County. Volunteers work outside in 5-hour shifts as runners, vaccine staff assistants and helping with registration. The link to Sign Up Genius can be found here.

The second greatest global challenge after climate change?

Rami G. Khouri
Senior fellow & journalism professor, American University of Beirut; syndicated columnist; nonresident senior fellow, Harvard Kennedy School.
This talk will explore several related themes that all revolve around the centrality of citizens' free expression and a free and credible media for meeting the many challenges in our world today. The Arab world will be my main arena of focus, given my work there for the past 50 years, but the themes pertain to the entire world.
If the world as a whole and countries individually are to avoid the perils of continued climate change, water stresses, haphazard urbanization, and precarious food security -- not to mention sectarian tensions and warfare -- a critical requirement will be for citizens to feel they have a voice and a stake in their system. Only if citizens feel they are treated decently by their governments and power structures will they engage meaningfully in discussions that can help resolve political, economic, or environmental threats they face; and only when citizens participate in public debates and in decision-making through participatory and accountable institutions can any society muster all its human and material wealth to improve security and material conditions for all.
One of the glaring gaps in the Arab world as a whole for the past 70 years has been the absence of free press and state and societal controls (tribal, religious) that prevent citizens from freely expressing themselves or discussing the real issues they confront collectively in society. The absence of citizen expression leads to the ills that have plagued most of the Arab region, including military rule, corruption, and poor socio-economic management. The advent of social media has brought new forms of state controls that have worsened this situation.
Some states jail citizens for expressing opinions on social media that go against the government's thinking. This is combined with the situation in some countries, like Egypt, where tens of thousands of citizens are jailed mainly for their political views, rather than for any crime. In some countries the state-conrolled media has also used crude propaganda techniques that include lies, as they confront other states in various disputes. The latest example of this is the UAE, Bahrain, and Saudi Arabian media in their blockade of Qatar. This badly discredits the media and leads to the use of lies as a routine form of miscommunication. The citizens and their state are the ultimate losers in such instances, as we also witness in advanced countries where politicians increasingly use lies and fake news to promote their cause by appealing to dissatisfied citizens.
The attempt by states and other forces in society to prevent individual citizens or groups of like-minded people from engaging freely in honest debate on important public issues will only aggravate the already negative trends in most Arab states; such trends are visible in figures on employment, gender equity, poverty, inequality, environmental health, education outcomes, informal labor, corruption and other problem arenas. The Arab region faces many serious threats today, including some countries that have started to disintegrate. The first essential step towards escaping from the terrible fate that awaits this region is to expand the freedom of expression that has been denied citizens for so many decades, so that they can become involved in analyzing their common threats and finding appropriate solutions.
Freedom of expression and a credible, independent media are not only luxuries for democratic countries; they are the essential foundation for any society that seeks prosperity, security, and stability for its own citizens, and the first line of linkages between citizen and state.

As pandemic lingers, fears grow that more families forced to go hungry

By J.D. Capelouto, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
"This has never happened to us. I don't think anybody was sure of what to do."
For Tiffany Ester, and so many of us, life was fairly smooth before all of this began.
The 43-year-old held a steady job at the Atlanta airport stocking store shelves, making enough to put food on the table for her family. But when the coronavirus forced Ester into furlough, she became one of thousands of Georgians who found themselves doing what was unthinkable just a few months ago: attending a food giveaway to get through the next few days.
"When it kind of sunk in, it started to hit home. Because it is very overwhelming when you have rent, when you have children to take care of," said Ester, a mother of three who lives in College Park.
Long lines at food distribution events have become a depressing symbol of the coronavirus as food banks and pantries across metro Atlanta report an unprecedented rise in the number of people seeking basic supplies. As the pandemic lengthens, many experts and officials worry more may be forced to go hungry, plunging the region further into a food crisis. Charities are anxious about how much longer they can meet the increased need.

"We're only at the tip of the iceberg," said Cindy Simpson, who helps run CHRIS 180, a behavioral health organization that largely focuses on mental health and housing services, but has also begun delivering food to thousands of homes in Atlanta. "Even when people can start getting out, it's going to take families a long time to recover."
What is 'food insecurity?'
"Food insecurity" is a technical term used by the U.S. Department of Agriculture that refers to a household that does not always have adequate access to healthy food. In reality, food insecurity manifests in many different ways.
Some families could be forced to rely only on staples like rice, said Zuani Villarreal, a spokeswoman for Feeding America, a national nonprofit with a network of more than 200 food banks, including Atlanta's. In more severe cases, it can result in a parent skipping meals and going hungry so their kids can eat.
"At the end of the day, what food insecurity means … is a family not knowing where their next meal will come from," Villarreal said.
Ester volunteered at a recent food giveaway her union organized in Fairburn, and she also took some food home for her own family.
"I just kind of stretch everything," Ester said. She has not had to attend any other food drives because she prioritizes buying groceries and paying her $960 rent with her limited unemployment benefits, she said. But that has forced her to fall behind on some bills, "making partial payments so I can keep everybody afloat," said Ester, whose husband is disabled.

Now when she cooks, she tells her kids: "Don't waste anything, because we don't know what tomorrow is going to bring."
Sheena Hill, 31, found herself in a similar situation when she lost her job in March. A mother of four, Hill was generally able to get by before the pandemic hit with some support from monthly food stamp benefits. But like many others, she and her husband, who works as a contractor, were forced further into food insecurity when the shoe store she worked at closed its doors and she suffered a sudden loss of income.
"What are we going to do?" Hill remembers thinking. "The first thing I went to was a food pantry."

, in part because she now gets food deliveries every Tuesday and Friday from CHRIS 180. The nonprofit put flyers in parts of Atlanta inviting people who need food to call and sign up for food delivery; the group now delivers to about 1,275 homes per week.
"This has never happened to us. I don't think anybody was sure of what to do," said Hill, who lives on Atlanta's Westside. "It's crazy how life has changed so fast."
Groups like the Atlanta Community Food Bank worry that without sustained financial contributions, they will not be able to meet the increased demand for food.You can donate to the ACFB at acfb.org/donate.
The food bank also works with hundreds of partner organizations in communities across north Georgia. To find a partner in your area to support directly, visit acfb.org/local-impact-map.
Some other organizations that work to fight food insecurity that you can contribute to include:
• United Way of Greater Atlanta
• No Kid Hungry
• Meals on Wheels Atlanta
• Feeding America
Experts say the pandemic has exposed the fraught nature of the current economy and the level to which it impacts Georgians' abilities to put food on the table. A Federal Reserve study released last year found that 40% of Americans would have trouble covering an unexpected $400 expense.
The coronavirus is "bringing to light the fragile nature of a household budget," Villarreal said. "They had jobs, and now they don't. Just like that, they need help."
Many people who are now food insecure, like Hill, also receive monthly food stamp benefits to help pay for food. About 183,000 households applied for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, also known as SNAP, between March 13 and April 17, according to state data. Officials said Georgia's more than 1 million food stamp recipients will receive additional benefits during the pandemic; those funds were rolled out at the end of March and April.

And food stamps, even coupled with unemployment benefits, are not always enough for some families to make ends meet, Villarreal said.
Coronavirus-related school closures also put a heightened burden on low-income families whose children normally get free meals at school. School districts in metro Atlanta have tried to continue feeding students and their families by offering free meals at selected pickup sites, a service Hill has used to get meals for her kids, ages 10 to 15.
But with the school year coming to an end, many of those programs are also wrapping up. Several school districts plan to launch food distribution efforts over the summer, but it is unclear whether they will be as extensive as those offered during the year.
Surging need
The pandemic and loss of jobs arrived so quickly that state agencies haven't put an exact number on how many Georgians now need immediate assistance with food, but experts and officials agree the number is still growing.
According to the USDA, before the pandemic hit more than one in 10 households in Georgia were food insecure. Feeding America estimated 1.3 million Georgians were food insecure before the pandemic, and predicts that number will grow around the state by another half a million people due to the virus.
Since early March, more than 1.8 million people have filed unemployment claims in Georgia – accounting for over 35% of the workers in the state.
Atlanta Community Food Bank CEO Kyle Waide estimates there has been a 30 to 40% rise in the number of people who are now getting food from food drives and other emergency sources, compared to mid-March. The food bank distributed nearly 8 million pounds of food in April, which equates to about 6.5 million meals, Waide said. Some smaller food pantries have reported seeing their demand double over the last two months.

Disney World is reopening more character meals: Why they are better than ever
Summer Hull
Editor's note: This guide is updated periodically as more restaurants reopen.
Once upon a time, theme park guests packed Disney World's Main Street U.S.A. Your biggest concerns were pondering the length of time you'd wait in line, how many FastPasses you could snag in a day and there were ample opportunities to dine with new or classic Disney characters both in and outside the parks.
Back in those gone but not forgotten days, you could have dinner with Snow White and the Evil Queen; dine in Cinderella Castle with the princesses; enjoy breakfast with Lilo, Stitch and Hawaiian-themed Mickey at the Polynesian; or have a meal with Winnie the Pooh and friends inside the Magic Kingdom.
Sign up for the free daily TPG newsletter for more travel news, tips and advice.
As you filled your belly with Mickey waffles, bacon and eggs, (sometimes at the buffet) each character would come by your table and you'd drop what you were doing, get up and take photos — or awkwardly just say hello, not get up and they'd eventually move along.
Don't get me wrong: This was fun and super magical for little kids who weren't afraid of the characters, and a much more civilized way to get that coveted Mickey photo than waiting in a long line under the afternoon sun. But these meals had their drawbacks, too.

Like many other things at Disney World right now, character meals have been significantly affected by the coronavirus pandemic. As you can imagine, packed dining rooms where everyone hugs and takes pictures with Sleeping Beauty aren't exactly ideal for social distancing.

Thankfully, just as Disney World has found a way to tweak its hotel operations and spread guests out in the parks, it's also found a way to resume some of the character meals — just in an all-new format that I think is even better than the original pre-pandemic version.

Open character meals at Disney World
Before we get into what to expect at your next meal with Mickey, here are the currently available character meals that have restarted. Keep in mind that this list was current as of the most recent update in mid-October, but could change at any time.
Breakfast at Topolino Terrace at Disney's Riviera Resort
(Photo by Summer Hull/The Points Guy)
Riviera Resort is Disney's newest resort hotel that opened in late 2019. It's a very grown-up and refined property that doesn't at all feel like you're at a theme park. (But don't worry, it also doesn't feel stuffy.)
Topolino Terrace is a French- and Italian-inspired restaurant located on the top floor of the Riviera Resort. Each morning, it hosts a character breakfast that's quite the civilized way to see Mickey and friends.
Adults get a pastry basket, juice, coffee and an entrée from a selection such as smoked salmon, quiche gruyère, sour cream waffles or the wild mushroom scramble I ordered above for $42.
Meals for kids up to 9 years old will cost $27 and come with items such as Mickey waffle dippers, eggs or fruit and yogurt.

Here, you'll get to see Mickey, Minnie, Donald and Daisy in their best Mediterranean outfits.
Unlike some character meals, such as Chef Mickey's, "Chip 'n' Dale's Harvest Feast" was a family-style affair even before the pandemic, so that part didn't change. The characters and their adorable farming outfits haven't been altered either.
Here, you'll get a family-style platter with items such as fluffy rolls | [

, turkey breast, seasonal vegetables, grilled beef, salad, cheesy macaroni and more (some ingredients may have even been grown in Epcot's Living with the Land area).
And I'm not sure there's a more kid-friendly meal in the world than macaroni and cheese with goldfish sprinkled on top.
This meal is low-key but a ton of fun, and is available for either lunch or dinner to a tune of $55 for adults and $36 for kids.
The characters normally include not only the headlining Chip and Dale, but also Mickey and Pluto. Mickey's overalls are truly adorable.
Oh, and be sure and save room for dessert. It's also unlimited, so don't be shy.
Ravello at the Four Seasons Orlando
This meal at the nearby Four Seasons Orlando is named the "Good Morning Breakfast with Goofy and Pals." It's currently only happening once per week on Saturday mornings. It was previously a high-end breakfast buffet of sorts but is now a sit-down meal that includes a bakery basket, sliced fruit, coffee or juice and your choice of entrée for $48 for adults and $28 for kids 12 and under (which is a more generous definition of a child than Disney itself offers).
At this meal, Goofy's pals usually include Mickey and Minnie, all dressed in resort attire. If you want to add on adult beverages, bottomless mimosas will cost an extra $18 and bottomless Bloody Marys will add $19 per person.
This reservation requires a call to the Four Seasons at 407-313-7777.

Hollywood & Vine (Photo by Summer Hull/The Points Guy)
A fun and very recently reopened character meal can be found in the popular Disney Hollywood Studios theme park (also home to Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge and the newest ride at Disney World, Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway).
At Hollywood & Vine, Minnie, Mickey and a couple of their friends dress up for the season, which will be Halloween-themed through October and then switches to holiday attire through the end of the year.
For now, the previous buffet-style service has been changed to a set menu that starts with family-style salad and rolls, followed by an entrée (such as shrimp macaroni and cheese, or cracked black pepper prime rib) and concludes with dessert including assorted pies or crème brûlée.
Be Our Guest in the Magic Kingdom
Be Our Guest is located within the Beast's Castle in the Magic Kingdom, and has transitioned from an a la carte lunch menu to a three-course meal for both lunch and dinner.

This means lunch costs more than it did before, but it now skips this awful (and extremely non-distanced) process we encountered at lunch a few years ago.
Here's the same hallway at lunchtime now:
Now, you're seated at safely spaced tables where you'll have a three-course meal that's pricey any time of day, but is also super relaxing. Lunch and dinner are now $62 for adults and $37 for kids. For that price, you get starters such as lobster bisque, a mixed greens salad or a meat and cheese board.

Your main course might be a filet mignon, sea scallops or baked chicken.
And don't over-eat, as the included dessert is a trio of treats — including the "grey stuff" that tastes much better than it sounds.
For me, this meal, while delicious, only counts as half a character meal as only one character, the Beast, makes an appearance.

the end of Main Street U.S.A. in Cinderella Castle is a pretty iconic Disney World bucket-list activity. Before the pandemic, this was the pièce de résistance of Disney World character meals for anyone who adored Disney Princesses. It has very recently reopened for lunch and dinner at a lower than normal price ($37 for kids, $62 for adults), but with a major change.
Currently, Cinderella's Royal Table is only kind of, sort of, a character meal. Cinderella herself has been making "surprise" appearances in the castle to wave during the meal (much like the Beast at Be Our Guest), but the other princesses have not yet returned.
If you've been yearning to get back to Cinderella Castle for a meal, get that credit card ready and go for it if you can snag a reservation. But if you want to do a once-in-a-lifetime meal with all the princesses, I'd wait a bit longer for this one to fully return.
Chef Mickeys
Dine with characters at Chef Mickey's at the Contemporary (Summer Hull/The Points Guy)
Normally, Chef Mickey's at the Contemporary Resort is as busy as could be with guests making piled-high breakfast plates from the buffet line while the "Fab 5" — Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Pluto and Goofy — make their rounds.
When Chef Mickey reopened over the summer with family-style dining, however, there weren't any characters. But beginning on Dec. 16, that will change, and the Fab 5 will return! It's also worth noting that the higher price will also return at that time.

Right now, breakfast is $25 for adults and $14 for kids, a steal by Disney standards. Effective Dec. 16, the price will increase to $42 for adults and $27 for kids once characters return.
Either way, you'll get all you care to enjoy French toast sticks, Mickey waffles, bacon, sausage and the oh-so-delicious potato-and-cheese casserole and tater bites.
What happens at a Disney character meal now
Now that you know the current character meals available, here's how they work.
Disney used to allow you to make dining reservations 180 days out which, frankly, was absurd. I don't know what I want for dinner tomorrow, much less at Disney six months from now. Some hot ticket meals, like Be Our Guest, would usually be snatched up months in advance, leaving those with more spontaneous trips out of luck unless they hit the jackpot with someone else's cancellation.
Now, you should still make a character dining reservation in advance since availability in the reopened dining rooms has basically been cut in half, but reservations are only open 60 days out. If you miss out on making an advance reservation before your trip, check the app for walk-up availability on the day of when you're ready to dine by selecting "dine now" in the dining booking portion of the app.
Mobile check-in and menus
When your reservation time comes, head to the restaurant and check in via the Disney mobile app. Your menu will also be available on mobile when you scan the QR code with your phone, and paper menus are available upon request.
See the characters
While you eat, the characters at your restaurant will make appearances.
At Topolino's Terrace, for example, each character was announced one by one as they entered and would then happily go around the room to themed music. Each character would spend a minute or so in various spots in the room away from the tables to do a little dance and pose for photos and selfies.
After each character had an individual turn, all four appeared together. During our breakfast, we saw this whole rotation twice, so it was happening pretty frequently, though not constantly.
During our recent lunch at Be Our Guest, the Beast also made two appearances during the meal. His walk-through, however, was much faster, and he didn't stop in various corners of the restaurant as the characters did at Topolino's. (Another reason this isn't | [

Markets for life-saving vaccines do not often generate the most desired outcomes from a public health perspective in terms of product quantity, quality, affordability, programmatic suitability and/or sustainability for use in the lowest income countries, according to this paper. The perceived risks and uncertainties about sustainably funded demand from developing countries often leads to underinvestment in development and manufacturing of appropriate products. The pilot initiative Advance Market Commitment (AMC) for pneumococcal vaccines, launched in 2009, aims to remove some of these market risks by providing a legally binding forward commitment to purchase vaccines according to predetermined terms. To date, 14 countries have already introduced pneumococcal vaccines through the AMC with a further 39 countries expected to introduce before the end of 2013. The authors of this paper describe early lessons learnt on the selection of a target disease and the core design choices for the pilot AMC. They highlight the challenges faced with tailoring the AMC design to the specific supply situation of pneumococcal vaccines and points to the difficulty – and the AMC's apparent early success – in establishing a long-term, credible commitment in a constantly changing unpredictable environment. One of the inherent challenges of the AMC is its dependence on continuous external funding to ensure long-term purchases of products. The authors examine alternative design choices and aim to provide a starting point to inform discussions and encourage debate about the potential application of the AMC concept to other fields.
Advertisement and knowledge of tobacco products among Ellisras rural children aged 11 to 18 years: Ellisras Longitudinal study

Tobacco products use is the leading cause of chronic diseases morbidity and mortality. This study explores an exposure to tobacco advertisements factors and knowledge, an association with snuff/pipe usage and cigarette smoking among rural children aged between 11 to 18 years in Ellisras, South Africa. A total of 1,654 subjects (854 boys and 800 girls) completed the questionnaire. Results showed that a significant number of boys (11.7%) compared to girls (8.8%) received free cigarettes from the members of the community. Bill boards were successful in advertising tobacco products among the Ellisras rural boys (17% boys and 12.8% for girls). The authors found significant association between cigarette smoking and advertisements of tobacco products on the TV screens, videos or movies. Though tobacco products legislation exists in South Africa, the authors argue that efforts should be taken by the health professionals to emphasise the danger of using tobacco products even among the illiterate. Teachers and parents should refrain from advertising tobacco products at schools and at homes.
africa: CONDOMS COUNT: MEETING THE NEED IN THE ERA OF HIV/AIDS
http://www.populationaction.org/resources/publications/condomscount/downloads/CondomsCount_English.pdf
This report, produced by Population Action International, argues that condom promotion and provision is one of the most effective methods for preventing HIV/AIDS. They state that 8 billion would have been the minimum number of condoms to have made a difference to the spread of HIV in 2000, and that the 950 million provided by donors were therefore hugely inadequate. The report says that a number of different interventions are necessary for effective prevention programmes: the authors highlight the need for addressing poverty, gender | [

African app cuts medical costs with community "virtual pharmacy"
Reuters: Times Live, February 2017
https://tinyurl.com/ky7jjwd
A mobile app in Senegal helps families save money and reduce waste through a "virtual pharmacy" where users can exchange leftover medication for new prescriptions. JokkoSante is scaling up after a two-year pilot phase in one Senegalese town. It aims to reach 300,000 families in the West African nation by the end of the year. The app allows users to trade in unused, packaged medicine for points which can go toward the purchase of new medicine when they need it. All of the exchanges are done at health centres or pharmacies by licensed professionals. Users can send points to family members and friends, and donors can buy points for people in need. The project has been driven by telecoms companies. It reaches a certain demographic, such as women in their thirties, and if a matching user doesn't have enough points to pay for a prescription she will receive a text saying which company donated to complete her purchase.
African Governments Urged to move with Speed to Address Over-Dependence on Imported Medicines
United Nations Economic Commission for Africa: UNECA Addis Ababa, 2019
https://allafrica.com/stories/201907010731.html
At the two-day Horn of Africa trade forum in Addis Ababa, organized by the ECA, the Government of Ethiopia, the African Union Commission (AUC), and the European Union, participants agreed that with the African Continental Trade Agreement (AfCFTA) in force, it was time for the continent to increase domestic production of pharmaceutical products and end over-dependence on imported medicines. The AfCFTA, they agreed, provides an opportunity for economies of scale necessary for African pharmaceutical production. The Economic Commission for Africa's (ECA) Director for Regional Integration and Trade, Stephen Karingi, in closing the forum said that domestic policies that can be used to support the industry, including through investment assurances, grants, fiscal incentives and local content requirements. Regional centers of excellence could be used to overcome constraints in human capacities and resources for research and development and testing. The forum also agreed on the need to strengthen regulatory frameworks to develop the pharmaceutical sector; to encourage domestic production with a regional focus; and to ensure efficient and safe logistic chains that can bring down the cost of medicines.

African Union Conference of Ministers of Health, 18 February 2008
http://www.doh.gov.za/docs/sp/sp0218a-f.html
As the World celebrates 30 years of the Alma Ata Declaration that launched the Primary Health as the Pillar of Quality services, there is greater need for all of us to improve access to affordable medicines. Even in rich countries, access to affordable medicines cannot be guaranteed. Of course, the problems are much greater in many developing countries, with insufficient or no manufacturing capacities in the pharmaceutical sector. In Africa we are too reliant on other countries to provide essential medicines for us. This is not strategic and correct, as we cannot guarantee availability of appropriate technologies that truly respond to our current and emerging needs.
After the handover: Exploring MSF's role in the provision of health care to migrant farm workers in Musina, South Africa
de Gruchy T; Kapilashrami A: Global Public Health, doi: https://doi.org/10.1080/17441692.2019.1586976, 2019
Non-state actors, including humanitarian agencies, play a prominent role in providing health care in low- and middle-income countries. Between 2007 and 2009, Musina, a South African municipality bordering Zimbabwe, became the site of several interventions by non-state organisations as an unprecedented number of Zimbabweans crossed the border, putting strain on already burdened local systems. After the initial need for humanitarian relief dissipated, organisations started to implement projects that were more developmental in nature. For example, Médecins sans Frontières developed a mobile clinic programme to improve health care access for migrant farm workers, a programme that was subsequently integrated into the Department of Health. Since the handover of the programme, it has faced multiple challenges. Using qualitative methodology and a case study approach, this paper traces the development of the programme, exploring the changing relationship between MSF and the state during this time. This research raises questions about the implications of short-term 'innovative' interventions targeting the access that migrants have to care, within a context in which policy and programmatic responses to health are not 'migration aware'. The authors highlight the ways in which the energies and resources of local health department employees were redirected by MSF's involvement in the area.
Agreements and disagreements with Oxfam
Montagu D, Feachem R, Feachem NS, Koehlmoos TP, Kinlaw H, Smith R: 17 April 2009
The point made by Oxfam's chief executive concerning failed states and the proliferation of private security firms is indicative of the ideological predisposition that impedes an open debate regarding healthcare delivery in developing countries. The view that healthcare is a fundamental responsibility of the State and must be largely provided by agencies of the State is not generally accepted outside of the UK, and is increasingly being challenged within the UK. British organisations tend to be skeptical of the private sector, but elsewhere the important role of the private sector in health systems, in countries both with and without well functioning state health programmes, is widely acknowledged. Public versus private provision is not a binary choice facing governments, donors, patients, and global policy makers – there is enough space for both to co-exist.
Alternatives to privatisation of health services: Perspective from Africa
Dambisya Y: University of Limpopo and EQUINET in the Municipal Services Project: 2010
http://www.municipalservicesproject.org/sites/default/files/Yoswa%20Dambisya%20Health.pdf
The Municipal Services Project and Focus on the Global South held a one-day workshop on building alternatives to the privatisation of basic services on 31 March 2010 in New Delhi, India. This presentation on health in Africa was given at the workshop. The presenter discussed some alternatives to privatisation, such as community-based health insurance and mutual health organisations. Functional national health insurance schemes are already in operation in Ghana and Nigeria, while South Africa is busy putting together its own scheme and a similar scheme is in its initial stages in Uganda. Community-based alternatives to the privatisation of health services were | [

5 things we learned from Barcelona's Spanish Super Cup win
Paco Polit
A late penalty save allowed Barcelona to conquer the Spanish Super Cup title. These are the five things we learnt from their showdown against Sevilla
1 – VAR is going to be fun (and fair) as hell
It took just eight minutes to realise just how enjoyable La Liga will be once the usual referee bias for big teams is watered down thanks to technology. In a few seconds, the ref was reassured that Sevilla's Pablo Sarabia wasn't in an offside position and his goal was 100% legal.
After extensive testing in the World Cup and a high success rate, finally La Liga may bring in some much-needed fairness in crucial plays that used to be overlooked or benefitted bigger sides.

2 – Machín wants to forge a Girona 2.0
Sevilla ultimately lost the game and the Spanish Super Cup, but they didn't perform poorly. Not by a long shot. Possibly they could've been more ambitious at some points as Barça's pace wasn't the best and they had many players out of top physical condition, but Sevilla nonetheless did their job: they showed order, discipline, good defensive habits and tried out-running the opposition in quick breaks and counter-attacks.
We could perceive what Pablo Machín is trying to do: replicate his successful model in Girona but swapping some key players in the midfield and up front, enhancing the individual quality and never sacrificing a clean sheet in favour of style or flair. A solid, sober, serious, down-to-earth side which guarantees top level competition under any circumstance.
3 – Spain's loss regarding Piqué is Barça's win
After learning that Gerard Piqué wouldn't play again for the Spanish national team, many eyes were on the center-back in his first official appearance after the World Cup. He didn't disappoint; in fact, he was a solid as ever and even managed to score the lucky goal right off the post that allowed Barça to even the score (1-1).
This is great news for Barça fans. Gerard, now 31, is no longer a kid. After his breakthrough season under Pep Guardiola in 2008, he's spent the last decade on an uninterrupted spree of club football and the additional games with Spain. Focused only on Barça, he may be able to ration his efforts and squeeze every drop of performance with his team, which became a tad uneven last season.

4 – Dembelé wants a spot in this Barça
Ousmane Dembelé has coped with an uncomfortable summer. Barça's signing policy seemed to forget that they had spent big cash on him only one-year-ago. Yes, his debut season might have been disappointing due to adaptation problems and an injury that kept him away from playing for a few months, but the sophomore season would be much better. Right?
Somebody at Barça's board seems to think otherwise, as Demebelé's name has been linked with potential transfers this summer. However, Ernesto Valverde trusts his player. That's why he made him a starter on Sunday. And that's why the 21-year-old responded in true superstar fashion: 90% pass accuracy, three take-ons, three chances created, overall presence across the field, two shots and an absolute rocket of a goal. Talk about vindication.

5 – Messi keeps evolving into the ultimate footballer
After picking up the cup and celebrating with his team-mates, cold, hard stats once again stated something obvious: Lionel Messi is an absolute legend and he's 'only' 31. With this Super Cup, he's now Barcelona's top all-time championship winner with 33 trophies. Utterly ridiculous.
Against Sevilla, Leo showed how far he's come from that | [

In the canon of celebrated environmentalists, the names of people such as David Suzuki, Tim Flannery, David Bellamy and Gerald Durrell will easily come to mind. Not so Joaquin Balaguer, yet here was a person who perhaps did more to preserve his country's wilderness areas than anyone else in a similar position of power.
So, who was Joaquin Balaguer? History will remember him as one of the longest-serving presidents of the Dominican Republic, which occupies the eastern two-thirds of the Caribbean island of Hispaniola (the western section is Haiti). History will also recognise him as yet another tin-pot dictator, who ruled his country by manipulation and fear, in keeping with the caudillo tradition, which has dominated Latin American politics for over a century.
Balaguer came to power in 1965, shortly after the death of his mentor, the unspeakably brutal Rafael Trujillo (who was fittingly assassinated on his way to an assignation with his mistress!), and he controlled the Dominican Republic with an iron fist for 36 years, until he was well into his nineties. The president himself was not corrupt, although he tolerated corruption amongst his ministers and their wealthy hangers-on. But he drew the line at anything that might damage his country's forests.
The reason for Balaguer's passion for woodlands seems to have stemmed from his childhood, when he used to take long walks through the forest and acquired a genuine love of and respect for trees. However, it is likely that there was an equally strong, and parallel, political motivation. During his rise to power he had witnessed the complete mishandling of neighbouring Haiti under the murderous Duvaliers, pére et fils. Neither Papa nor Baby Doc had any interest in, or knowledge of, the environment. It was simply there to be exploited, and as a result Haiti's forests were completely destroyed, mostly by peasant farmers who used the wood to make slow-burning charcoal for fuel. Balaguer wanted to show the world that his country was superior to, and more responsible than, Haiti.
Consequently, although Dominicans also converted native wood into charcoal, Balaguer put an end to the practice by importing timber from Honduras and the USA, and natural gas from Venezuela, which his government subsidised. Even more spectacularly, any projects that encroached on natural forests were destroyed, if necessary by military intervention, and even his rich property-developer friends were not spared. He also created marine reserves for humpback whales, protected coastlines and river banks, and even went so far as to insist that all fences should be made from live-rooted trees (although this scheme proved impossible to enforce).
The Dominican Republic today is still a desperately poor country, with very inefficient infrastructures. But thanks to Joaquin Balaguer it can boast the largest area (expressed as a percentage of total) of natural forest in Central America, and its zoo and natural history museum – both presidential projects – are major tourist attractions which bring in much needed foreign currency.
If we were to scroll down the list of presidents, prime ministers and premiers of all the world's sovereign states, it is doubtful if we would find any whose environmental achievements matched those of Balaguer.
The question now is: why? And the answer is that, in general, politicians show little interest in the environment, and they have only demonstrated a fledgling awareness of it in very recent times, since such issues as climate change and fossil fuel shortages have been forced onto the agenda.
Yet environmental management, or more commonly, mismanagement, can wreak disastrous political consequences. As Jared Diamond points out in his brilliant new book, Collapse, entire civilisations have crumbled as a result of over-exploiting natural resources. Rampant deforestation on Easter Island brought about political anarchy, and water shortages caused the abandonment of the city of Mohenjo Daro in what is now Pakistan, and fragmented the powerful Mayan empire in the New World. To that list we can add the city state of Fatephur Sikri in India, not to mention the dozens of abandoned homesteads in South Australia. In some cases families ran these estates on an almost feudal basis, only to see their power – and wealth – eroded within a matter of a handful of years, when the ra | [

ins, which they thought were predictable, turned out to be fickle in the extreme. The Flinders Ranges are littered with the eroded ruins to this day.
When it comes to what we might call mainstream, western-style politics, the environment only seems to play a role in times of plenty. This is well illustrated by the rise of the Green Party in Germany. Germany, or to put it more accurately, West Germany, was an economic miracle during the 1970s. Under the chancellorship of Willy Brandt, the country was the envy of Europe. Half the continent was struggling to cope with communist overlords, Spain was ruled by dictator Francisco Franco, France was treading water both politically and economically, and Britain was a complete basket case, riddled with strikes, cumbersome nationalised industries and a three-day working week.
But West Germany simply went from strength to strength, so much so that in the political arena, there were really no 'issues'. With everyone living in a comfort zone, West Germans began thinking about wider questions, such as pollution, logging of forests, and loss of native animal and plant species. A green party was born, and within a very short space of time some of its members were elected to the Bundestag, even holding the balance of power for a while.
But all good things come to an end, and when the reunited Germany faced a major financial and infrastructural reconstruction after the collapse of communism, the population at large refocussed its attention on the hip pocket, and thus the greens lost considerable political ground. The movement is still strong in Germany, but it is not the force for change that it once was.
Closer to home, it is worth looking at the political role played by the environment in this country, and it comes as no great surprise that – almost until this year – that role has been very minor. Of course, we have had, and still have, green politicians in the senate, notably Bob Brown, but we should remember that the green flag is really only being flown by Tasmania, a state where projects such as the damming of Lake Pedder, and the ongoing logging of old growth forests have galvanised a significant proportion of the population into taking positive action. Greens, whether formally linked to a political party or not, are woefully under-represented throughout the country as a whole.
However, of late things appear to be changing, and interestingly, in an election year. New South Wales has already had its state election, and the Iemma government was returned with ease, as predicted. The campaign seemed to be without issues, although, given the fact that most voters live in the greater Sydney area, the opposition probably could have made more capital out of excessive tolls on the M7 motorway, and the Cross City tunnel debacle. Nevertheless, the government itself decided to make an issue out of the environment, and spent large sums of money on television advertising campaigns, aimed at bolstering its 'clean and green' credentials, by informing us that some 15 per cent of the state's energy needs will come from non-fossil fuel sources by the year 2020.
At the risk of sounding cynical, plans already in place would achieve that target anyway, and it would have been more impressive to have upped the ante and set a figure of, say, 25 per cent, which would represent a genuine challenge to legislators.
With a Federal election looming, the environment again appears to be an issue, and its sudden elevation to political prominence has come from an unexpected source, namely the Prime Minister himself.
Historically, although it is not a hard and fast rule, the left wing of politics has tended to be more environmentally aware than the right. Therefore, in a sense, the PM has stolen Labor's thunder by not only addressing issues such as climate change and control of water supply, but even going so far as to admit that views long-cherished on these topics were in fact wrong. There are plusses and minuses to consider here. The very fact that environmental questions are now in the limelight is a welcome, and overdue, initiative. However, if the proposed solutions include an increase in the number of nuclear power plants, wrongly situated windfarms, and an expansion of the system of carbon credits (which, as I have pointed out in previous articles, is open to abuse) then we are faced with nothing more than a set of grandiose, but ultimately empty gestures.
Labor's response to the government's proposals will be crucial, but thus | [

"Being completely gentlemanly is overrated at times," she said.
He draped her arm around his and pressed her hand against his forearm. "Perhaps it is," he said as they began to walk.
With her free hand, she fussed with her skirt, using the excuse to keep their pace slow. Not only was she in no hurry to get back, she didn't want him overexerting himself. All too soon, they were picking their way through the muddy patches that dotted the pathways between tents. Candlelight glowed from within a few of the tents already. Thankfully, the paths were empty of people for the most part. Cliste pushed her nose through the canvas door of their tent and dashed inside, leaving them alone.
Arm withdrawing from hers, Sean took a step back. Before they lost contact altogether, he caught up one of her hands, raised it to his lips, and kissed the back of it. The heady sensation of a man's lips—this man's lips in particular—upon the bare flesh of her hand was entirely new. Men had kissed her hand before, but always with a glove upon it. A thrill vibrated all the way down to her core. Her eyes shot open and she gasped at the pleasure of it. From beneath his dark brown locks, he gazed up at her from where he bent over her hand. Muscles low in her abdomen clenched, widening her eyes even farther.
"Guess I'm not a complete gentleman after all," he whispered.
The husky tone of his voice touched things inside her that she longed for his skin to. Her face was afire with the scandal of her thoughts, and she couldn't care less.
"Like I said, overrated," she said in a breathy voice.
Honor Before Heart is the first book in the Emerald Belles series by Heather McCorkle. This author is new to me, this is the first book I have read of hers and I can categorically state that it won't be the last!
Set in America during the civil war the action begins immediately, and from the very first sentence I was hooked.
Corporal Sean MacBranian is injured and left to die amongst hundreds of victims from both sides of the war. He hasn't been in America long enough to lose any of his accent, and although in time he might be expected to lose it, right now it is still strong. He has a shameful secret that he makes him feel unworthy, but he hopes that by fighting the fight for the Union, and especially to help free slaves, that he can earn some respect back in his own mind. He didn't expect to be on his deathbed quite so soon. Thankfully he is discovered by a grey Irish Wolfhound, whose owner isn't far behind.
Ashlinn is officially a nurse in the army, but acts more as a doctor thanks to learning all she knows form her father. He was a fore-thinking man, and in a time when doctors thought more of the speed of treatment rather than the cleanliness of hands, surgical instruments etc; those lucky enough to be treated by her tended not to lose limbs or their lives. She too has her demons, one of which is the feeling that she has that her youngest brother, missing at war, might actually be a deserter. She hopes she is wrong, and she constantly searches longer than anybody else amongst the dead or injured on battlefields with the hope of finding her brother, and finding him alive. If it weren't for spending the extra time on the field this time, and if not for her faithful wolfhound, she wouldn't have come across Sean. His relief to not have met his maker so soon is palpable, not to mention the light hearted moment when he says that Ashlinn is a beautiful angel come to rescue him.
There starts a very emotional, beautiful, deep, relationship between the couple. In a time of war they both know that every time Sean leaves with his regiment, the 69th Infantry of the Union Army, he may not come back. Knowing that, and having lost most of her family to the war already, Ashlinn acknowledges her lustful feelings towards Sean, but fights the good fight to not let her heart get involved. She couldn't bear to lose somebody she loves again. Sean understands, and he agrees that he would like to court her properly when the war is over and they are back in New York. They share a mutual lust for each | [

MAULDIN — Eastside won the Greenville County wrestling tournament for the third consecutive year Saturday, and the Eagles left their coach somewhat perplexed about their performance.
"I don't know how this team does it, how they're scoring so well, how we're winning tournaments," said Eastside coach Jack Kosmicki, whose Eagles had 12 placers, seven in the finals and four champions at Mauldin High School.
"A large proportion of our lineup is out of weight class right now. They're still up a weight class or two and have to drop."
Eastside's Tucker Allen, for example, won the championship at 126 pounds. Kosmicki said this coming week Allen will be challenging for a spot in the lineup at 113.
The Eagles' Ryan Augustine took third at 160 and will be challenging at 145.
Junior Jordie White, however, was where he was supposed to be. Eastside's two-time state champion won his third county championship, this time at 120.
The Eagles' other champions were Riley Augustine, who took first at 132 after missing last year's tournament because of a knee injury; and Chase Barnes, a runner-up last year who placed first at 182.
Eastside also had its share of pleasant surprises, including junior heavyweight J.C. Whisonant, who took fourth in his first varsity tournament; and freshman Trey Cooper, who went 4-1 (four pins) and placed third at 106.
"David (Maholtz) moved down from heavyweight to 220 so we could put J.C. in there, because he's too good to have sitting the bench," Kosmicki said.

Maholtz was the runner-up at 220. Younger brother Ben Maholtz (138) and Sean Hoppenhauer (113) also were runners-up for the Eagles.
Eastside finished with 221.5 points. Hillcrest was second with 188 and Mauldin third with 154.
Hillcrest had three champions, including the Most Outstanding Wrestler in the upper weights, 160-pound winner Walker Stephenson.
"I've been working for it, that's for sure. I really wanted it," said Stephenson, a freshman who won at county for the second year in a row. "It usually comes down to me and one of our other guys, Garrett (Sayegh). We usually go back and forth at our tournaments,
trying to beat each other out."
Sayegh also repeated as champion, winning again at 195, and the Rams' Treavelle Westfield took first at | [

Woodmont junior Garrett Starks repeated as Most Outstanding Wrestler in the lower weights, winning a third straight county championship by placing first at 138 pounds.
"It's starting to become a traditional thing," Starks said. "Me and my partner, Thomas Schock, we grind each day, and we kick each other's butt, and if it wasn't going to be me, it was going to be him. He's a really good wrestler, and he makes me really good."
Schock was the Wildcats' other first-place finisher, winning at 145.
Host Mauldin produced two county champions: Jeremy Fisher (170), who became a three-time champion; and heavyweight Jackson Nash, who outlasted J.L. Mann's Zion Robinson-Kearse in overtime in the final.
The others who left as county champs were Greenville's Jamarcus Isler at 106, Blue Ridge's Kyle Flyte at 152 and Travelers Rest's Gary Holmes at 220.
