Transgenderism: Hopes, Tensions, and Biological Roadblocks Aug 12, 2016 “Until we find our rest in Christ, we will be trying to invent ourselves in ways that will only end in tears.” Rob Smith on the hopes, tensions, and roadblocks of the transgender movement. Is Technology Outpacing Our Ethics? Aug 11, 2016 “Transgender surgery often contradicts the Hippocratic principle of ‘Do no harm,’” says theologian and ethicist Rob Smith in today’s episode. “You are now perhaps mutilating a perfectly healthy body to try and address a psychological problem.” What Gives Us the Right to Label Transgender Impulses as Wrong? Aug 10, 2016 “Christians should get as good a grasp on questions about transgender, whether or not we have transgender friends,” says theologian and ethicist Rob Smith. “Because when a person hurts themselves, it hurts others.” What Causes Gender Dysphoria? Aug 9, 2016 “God has given us distinct body and soul, but they exist in psychosomatic unity,” says theologian and ethicist Rob Smith. “The two are knit together (Psalm 139:13).” So what does this mean in the transgender debate? Why Did the Transgender Revolution Catch Us by Surprise? Aug 8, 2016 “Gender dysphoria ought to evoke our compassion,” says Rob Smith, our guest this week on the podcast. “It is a horrific affliction to bear.” Smith is a theologian and ethicist at Sydney Missionary and Bible College in Australia, and for him, gender dysphoria hits home.

For hundreds of years, zoos have offered people the opportunity to observe dangerous or shy wild animals at close quarters. Zoos in western Europe adhere to the high standards imposed by the EU decades ago for keeping wild animals like elephants, lions, tigers, etc. Sadly, wild animals in zoos in eastern Europe are still forced to live crammed into tiny spaces in appalling conditions. The issue: zoos in eastern Europe Particularly high standards for keeping wild animals in zoos have been in effect in Europe since 1992. Although all zoos in the European Union are bound to these directives, it is still difficult to enforce the EU guidelines in all member states even years after their coming into force. This is often due to local authorities implementing the EU directives in their countries at their own discretion. Frequently, the know-how is lacking. In most cases, professional development opportunities are not offered to zoo staff. This has led to many zoos in eastern Europe losing their licenses to keep wild animals such as lions, tigers, leopards. Some zoos have already been closed for years. But the animals are still there, suffering. - Do not visit badly run zoos and animal parks! Think carefully about which zoo you would like to support with your visit. - Together with your children, take a critical look at how animals are kept in zoos. - Complain about inadequate conditions directly to the zoo management. - Be informed about projects to protect wild animal species in their home countries and support them.

- Published 1 month ago on - By: Admin Dungeshwor Temple is one of the ancient Hindu temples located in the Dailekh district of far-western Nepal. There are two temples in Dungeshwor; Shideshwor Mahadev and Dungal Temple. This area is considered to be a place in the centre of five famous Panchkoshi, five in Dailekh district, according to the Ancient Holy flame myth and Vaishwankar Myth of Dailakh district. It's considered a mantle because of these diverse reasons. The temple is situated at the confluence of river Loohre and river Karnali, 544 meters from the sea level in Dailekh district of the Karnali Province. Dungeshwor Temple is located at Lower Dungeshwor, the highest elevated area in Dailkeh. This bridge is currently situated in the village of Naule Katuwal linked to the Municipality of Dullu. This campusphere is located near the Karnali highway in the Karnali river and the turbulence of Larkakhola. The predecessor of this loop was famous with fascinating historical background. Dailekh is called Lower Dhungeshwor and Upper Dhungeshwor for two points. According to legend, a Brahmin called Jyotikha Upadhyay had travelled every day from home, completing Panchali and Lohar Sangam in Panangli and Lohar, completing the Hindu rites and Santana and joining the cave. He used to be involved in the worship and meditation of Shiva in this cave, chastisement, and after returning to his own home, he saw some disability in his hands. While his health situation was deteriorating, due to the continuous religious rituals, he encountered a saint called Sagar Giri on the banks of the Karnali River in 1935. The Brahmin told Sagar Giri to pursue this devotion, though his illness could not be induced by it. The young man of Giri Thar, after accepting the Brahmin 's request, brought the Shivaling, established the Dungeshwor temple and became the new lord of divine might. So devotees and kings along with temple security rendered Damaha, Slogan, and deity in the temple for worship. Thus the growth and popularity of the temple gradually began to increase. The sequence of worship and popularity of the temple began to take over the city. After some time, the two Dhungta sisters Ganga and Jamuna from the district of Achham came to Dailekh to worship the God of Dungeshwor Temple without marrying. Seeing their involvement, Sagar Giri handed over the management of the temple to the two sisters for eternal life. Recognising the devotion of the sisters and their worship, the temple was named Devaki, which means Goddess. Only then did the order for Devi's hands to worship was started in this temple. The attendees and the devotees to the temple began to increase year after year. The then King Prithvi Narayan Shah subsequently picked up Damaha, Nagara and the symbol in this temple was taken to Hanuman Dhoka, Kathmandu and conquered by his gangs. The dormitory held in Hanumanhoka began itself at the time of worship at Sidheshwor Mahadev in the morning. When the Damaha, Nagara and icon were restored to Sidheshwor Mahadev temple in 1960 BS gave two programs of optimism and the temple pillar. In this context, there was worshipping in the temple by a Kathmandu official who proposed to marry the Ganga and Jamuna. Devi Ganga made Siddheshwar Mahadev's temple if he had a provision to marry her officers, and the officer allied with the Ganga, upholding the vow. Similarly, one Nepa villager named Khatri married Jamuna in 1961 BS by promising to build Dhungel Mahadev temple. Following his pledge, Khatri also founded Dhungel Mahadev's temple. Saint Sagar Giri of this temple died in 1961 BS, and the tradition of worship and rituals of Sideshwor Temple was carried on by Narottam Giri. His father also recovered the cord of being a saint and then started. There is a belief that the natural holy flame of this temple is connected to the navel's vessel, and any other sacred lights need to be fired. If failed, dishonour, drought, famine and hunger could be a reason to suffer. Sidheshwor Mahadev's temple merely opens at Vijayadashmi's day. The temple is given legitimate offerings along with religious sounds and music from the day of significant degradation of Dashain (i.e. Ghatasathapana), and is immersed on Vijayadashmi Day. The temple features a Shivaling. Likewise, the temple worships Trishula, axe, and sword as a symbol of Goddess Bhagwati.

David Wingo and David Gordon Green roll pretty deep. The composer scored the director’s first feature, “George Washington,” and the pair have collaborated numerous times over the years on “All the Real Girls,” “Snow Angels,” “The Sitter” and last year’s “Prince Avalanche.” Their working relationship continues with the forthcoming “Joe,” and before you see the movie this weekend, you can treat your ears to the music. The folks over at Paste have unveiled a full listen to the soundtrack, and you can click below to hear it for yourself. Starring Nicolas Cage and Tye Sheridan, the film follows an ex-con and troubled teen who form a bond in this Southern drama/thriller. Wingo composed the score with Jeff McILlwain, and they nicely set the tone for the story, one with punch, tension and dread all given fair weight across the fifteen tracks (plus songs by Explosions In The Sky and Ryan Bingham). And Cage’s return to actual acting instead of gesticulating couldn’t ask for a better backdrop. “Joe” opens in limited release this Friday, April 11th. The soundtrack hits iTunes April 8th.

With another Valentines Day approaching, there will be inevitable dynamics impacting many of us. I’ve personally experienced most of these and would offer some nuggets of hope and encouragement for this annual day of love… Single? — While the media will assure you you’re the only one without a true love, and while you watch certain friends receive flowers at the office or enjoy a romantic dinner for two, many people, actually about 100 million in the U.S. alone, will not be celebrating in a significant way. Truthfully, you are not alone on February 14 or the day after. Married? — Marrying my husband at the ripe old age of 42 was a gift worth the thousands of tears cried until he came. He is thoughtful, generous, and typically remembers flowers with a love-written card on Valentines Day. I’m blessed beyond measure AND never take it for granted. Still, there are many married people who will feel the pangs of heartache and disappointment on Valentines Day. Their marriage may be suffering or their spouse isn’t quite as thoughtful as the next guy. Expectations not met, many will cry themselves to sleep, disappointed that everything fell short once again. Single, Happily Married, Not-So-Happily Married? — Whatever “love state” you find yourself in, keep in mind it’s only one day. Millions don’t live up to the romantic experiences we assume so many are enjoying, and regardless, you can be satisfied with these few simple truths in mind: Truth #1 — Love that lasts, true love, sacrificial healthy love, is a rare treasure, one that takes work to prepare for and to keep. If you desire such a love, keep your hope alive (hope is a choice not a feeling) and prepare yourself to be ready for this type of love. You can tone your “love muscle” before you flex it by working on yourself, then refusing to settle until all you’ve hoped for happens. Truth #2 — The human heart can be filled to capacity even without romantic love. I know this from personal experience and highly recommend such fullness (it’s great for yourself AND is a magnet for the person you want to love.) Wonderful, generous girlfriends are a must-have for every woman. Outlets for serving the less fortunate bring lasting satisfaction. Cultivating a growing walk with God is a supernatural way to feel “full” amidst the “not-yets” and disappointments. Living your dreams on all cylinders is a proven means for enjoying every day with increasing fulfillment. A friend of mine told me she plans to invite several girlfriends out for a fun Valentines dinner. Why should they be stuck home feeling left out when their city has so much to offer in food and entertainment? My Mom taught me that even when your husband isn’t the card-giving expressive type, focus on what he does have and treat yourself to whatever else you need. Valentines Day and true love are wonderful, worth waiting for, but not the end-all, be-all, as the world would have us believe. Life is vast, varied, and beautiful. So are you. So……Happy “Live-Your-Dreams-Day,” with or without flowers and candy.

Sounds too good to be true? Maybe so, but as machine learning and cloud data technology becomes more accessible and scalable, building your own data driven Multi Touch Attribution (MTA) model is becoming increasingly realistic. The advantage of a predictive machine learning model is that it can be objectively assessed on the basis of a blind hold out data set, so you have a clear criteria as to whether one model is ‘better’ than another. What you need for an in-house approach First, you need data, and lots of it. Fortunately, digital marketing is one of the most data-rich activities on the planet. Chances are that if you are B2C online business, you have hundreds and thousands or else millions of site visit logs generated every week. These logs contain referrer data which helps you analyse and understand the customer journey to sale, the first essential step in building your own attribution approach. Second, you need a solid experienced data science and marketing analytics team. Go for a mixture of skills. Typically some data scientists are strong on theory, but weaker on the application, while others are great communicators and see the strategic angle, but are weaker at data related programming. You also need domain expertise in marketing analytics. You need visualisation experts and data engineerings experts. The fabled ‘unicorn’ data scientist is literally impossible to hire, so instead, you should go for a team with the right mix of skills, with strong leadership to move the project forward. Third, you need patience. The truth is, getting to an attribution model using machine learning is not easy. It’s not a case of throwing some data at a model and waiting for the answers to pop out by magic. Your team needs to decide what data to use, how to configure it as a feature set, what types of model to use, what an appropriate training set is, how to validate the model and so much more besides. You will need to make multiple attempts to get to a half decent model. Choosing the final model The best candidate ML models really depend on your data – we have had good results with well optimised classifiers and regression models, which we find often outperform even high order Markov models. While a black box or ensemble method may get better predictive accuracy, you need to consider the trade off in terms of reduced transparency and interpretability. The best advice is not to commit to a particular modelling approach or feature set too early in the process, but to compare multiple methods. But what then? An advanced machine learning model does not speak for itself. Once you have a model, you then need to be able to interpret it in such a way as to be able to solve the marketing mix allocation problem. What exactly is the contribution of each channel? What happens if spend on that marketing channel is increased or decreased? How does the model handle the combined effects of channels? All of this will take months, so it is small wonder than many companies ignore the problem or else go for a standard vendor out of the box approach. It’s worth remembering then that there are some key benefits of a, ‘do it yourself’ approach to consider. Benefits of an in-house model If you create your own model, you will discover a great deal about your marketing activity and data in the process. This can lead to immediate benefits – for example with one major international services firm we worked with we found significant marketing activity occurring in US states and cities where the company has no local service team. Even with no attribution model defined at that stage, the modelling effort uncovered this issue and saved the company huge sums right away. The point is that your data quality is tested and will become cleaner and more organised through the process of using it, and this in turn supports all of your data driven marketing. Another beneficial side effect is that if you create your own attribution model you will also learn about your business and decision making. This process will force your marketing teams to collaborate with data scientists and engineers to work out how to grow sales. Other teams need to be involved, such as finance, and your agencies, and this will often spawn further opportunities to learn and collaborate across all these marketing stakeholders. Attribution is all about how different marketing channels work together, so your various marketing teams and agencies need to collaborate as well – social, search, display as well as above the line, and brand and performance more broadly. Again, this provides intrinsic and additional value over and above the modelling itself. Finally, it’s worth pointing out that you will never actually arrive at final model. This is quite a fundamental point to bear in mind. By its nature, a machine learning approach means you need to train the model on fresh data as it comes in. Your marketing and your products are also changing all the time, and so are your customers. So really you need to build a marketing attribution modelling process more than you need to build a single attribution model. So, go ahead, build your model, be less wrong than before, and then when you have finished, start all over again. As we say at Metageni, it’s all about the journey.

Bipolar Bear has announced the playlist for 'BADABOOM' 07 radio show with Jarod ESC this Monday the 25th of May 2020 8 to 10 PM Indochina Time (ICT), and repeating Friday 8 to 10 AM. Scientific Sound Asia is the premier underground radio station for the Asian region, with a diverse following over Asia including China, Vietnam, Malaysia, India, Sri Lanka and Internationally. This week features a back to back from BADABOOMs' Bipolar Bear and guest Jarod ESC. Bipolar Bear, real name Stefan Paunescu is a Romanian DJ hailing from the small provincial city of Craiova in the south of the country. Growing up in such a small city had problems for the teenage Stefan and options for buying cutting edge music were scarce, especially being part of the former Eastern Bloc, which as with many former USSR countries drew its main musical influences from MTV. Luckily with the birth and subsequent development of the internet the teenage Bipolar Bear was able to quench his thirst for many different genres, and he watched as the digital revolution of music transpired. With a genuine passion for producing and playing good quality music, Romanian DJ and producer Bipolar Bear loves building eclectic sets that aim to take audience on the musical journey he is conducting. His aim is to always spread positive energy and his enthusiasm is hard to match. After leaving Romania on a forlore and carving his way in the rich Manchester music scene as a DJ and as a producer, his last project Odwana, a blend of electronic dance music infused with world sounds, African percussion and empowering vocals made waves on the UK festival scene, and his new journey materialised. At the beginning of 2019 he relocated to Da Nang in Vietnam and has set-up the party brand Badaboom together with fellow DJ G Nomad, aiming to ring the party scene in Central Vietnam to a new level. The Badaboom Radio Show is designed in the same spirit as their events, with the desire to share the joys of music with a community of like-minded humans. Expect a wide variety of sonic delights from funk, soul and rare groove to the more experimental sides of electronic music. This week sees Badaboom Radio show hosting another special guest, Hong Kong's very own Escaped Records main man, Jarod ESC, the latest addition to the Central Vietnam scene. Born in Paris and raised on music, Joseph Lebon AKA Jarod Escaped has spent the last ten years sprinkling his disco, house, and funk fairy dust all over the world. Since 2018 he’s lived in Hong Kong, collaborating and playing with Fauve Radio, Mihn Club, and Shi Fu Mitz Festival. He is now settled in Hoi An where Jarod ESC saw the light of day. Jarod will be one of the headliners of the next Badaboom party on Saturday 30th of May alongside a volley of great talent from the region. BADABOOM 07 25th of May 2020.

Self Consciousness - Is A Hurdle You Can Overcome On Your Road To Greater Self Respect We all know what it is like to fall under the spell of self consciousness. It can lead to embarassment and being more conscious of ourselves and our actions than we would like. We should remember that we can all feel this from time to time. To feel that we are the only person under scrutiny - that we are the centre of attention. That everybody is looking at us. We are very conscious of self - our self. And we don't like it. We would like the focus of other people's attention to move away from us. We can be conscious of our own embarassment at this unwanted attention. And things go wrong . . . We are in the middle of doing something and one thing after another seems to be happening. And things seem to be getting out of control. And they all seem to have a mind of their own. And we seem to be caught up in the middle of it all. Our self consciousness is coming to the fore. We are trying to be cool. Trying to shrug things off - was it really me? But we are having difficulties. We are being self conscious - and everyone seems to be aware. A little off key? We have all done things in the past that were just a little off key. But did they really matter. Did other people think the worse of us for so doing? Are we not all trying in life to do the right thing to get through life in the best way possible. And when we try we don't always succeed. Try, try and try again is the oft said motto. Yet it does work. It does help to learn something from the previous tries though, does it not? A case of survival? We are all trying to survive in life. We are all trying to thrive in life. We are all trying to get there, though at times we don't know where the 'there' is. So we are all in the same boat really. Some are paddling, others are rowing, others are using an engine. Some have radar, some have sat nav. Others have ancient maps. And others have advice and suggestion. Yet others seem to be doing things on their own - but getting by. It can be the embarassment that gets to you. You are so much thinking about what other people might think that you lose track. Your self consciousness can seem to take over. The duck and the swan story . . . We should remember the duck and the swan. How growing up the swan, and being surrounded by ducks, tried to be a duck. Then, getting older and finding other swans, it realized that it was really a swan, and could be proud and grateful to just be what nature intended. Growing up thinking you should be something, and yet you are really something else. Recognizing that you are fine as you are. Understanding that you are a special human being in your own right. You have a place in life and a special one at that. Your place. Why are we trying to be something else when we can grow to be the real us? Are we trying to prove something? If so what? We can grow, we can develop, we can warm to our task. Of being us. We can feel proud. Proud of being us. There is no one around like us. There is no one quite like us. For that we should feel proud. We should feel glad.

A real property dealer who was involved within the buy of a landmark bar and music membership in Quincy has apparently disappeared, and now there are considerations in regards to the cash raised for the challenge. It was tempting simply to mark no though I used to be scheduled. It could have been immoral, the Bible tells us we’re to work with within the legislation of the land. It is not price having to pay back that quantity later on, if they might have caught on. I may have all my unemployment taken away. Because of that I’ve been instructed I might spend a LENGTHY time in jail ready for Hawaii to decide whether or not they need me, somewhere round 8 months. Also it relies upon what you spend it on. Analysis (that I am unable to reference precisely in the intervening time) signifies that individuals who spend cash on doing things (travel, learning new skills and so forth) are extra blissful than those that spend money on acquiring more stuff. Expertise is more invaluable than issues! Properly, duh! Point is there is a ton of cash lacking and ‘they’ the Pentagon, GAO, and many others. ain’t doing shit about it. To maintain your spirits up, it might assist to learn some tales about cats coming again home after being lacking for a while. Check out some hyperlinks below. Cats are blessed with incredible instincts to outlive and it has been known for cats to return months, even years after they first went missing. Solely three of the main spending categories have not outpaced earnings growth: apparel, recreation and transportation. But attire and recreation are relatively immaterial bills; they don’t make up a big portion of the typical consumer funds.

Not guilty plea in death of Johnny Cash's great-niece COOKEVILLE, Tenn. — A Tennessee man has pleaded not guilty to killing country music legend Johnny Cash's great-niece in March. The Herald-Citizen reported (http://bit.ly/1pdksIu ) that 27-year-old Wayne Gary Masciarella entered the plea during a criminal court appearance in Putnam County on Wednesday. He's charged with murder in the death of 23-year-old Courtney Jean Cash. Masciarella also faces charges of attempted first degree murder, especially aggravated kidnapping, abuse of a corpse and tampering with evidence. Police say Masciarella stabbed Cash to death after getting into an argument with her and her boyfriend, William Austin Johnson. Cash's body was found March 19 inside a wooden box at her home in Baxter. Johnson also suffered stab wounds. Deputy District Attorney Tony Craighead says prosecutors don't foresee additional charges against other people "as of this time."

LIHU‘E — The Salvation Army broke a 130-year tradition by announcing its holiday fundraising campaign early to “Rescue Christmas.” Funds raised through the iconic Red Kettles are a major source of annual support for direct services during the holidays as well as throughout the year. These funds are at risk this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, requests for services are at an all-time high, stated a Salvation Army spokesman. Based on the increase in services already being provided in response to COVID-19, the Salvation Army could serve up to 155 percent more people in Christmas assistance in 2020. This includes putting food on the table, paying bills, providing shelter and helping place gifts under the tree — assuming the resources are available. Last year, the Salvation Army in Hawai‘i served more than 88,000 individuals. In light of the increased demand for services, the Salvation Army could see a 50% decrease in funds raised nationally through the Red Kettles. This is due to the closing of retail stores, consumers having less cash and coins, and the overall decline in foot traffic. The decrease in funds will impact the Salvation Army by limiting its capability to provide services for the most vulnerable. During last year, $126 million was raised in Red Kettles nationally, including $700,000 in Hawai‘i. “Today, we are launching virtual Red Kettles to ensure we are able to meet the ever-growing needs of our island communities,” said Major Jeff Martin, the divisional leader of The Salvation Army Hawaiian &Pacific Islands. “We humbly ask donors to step up now as we navigate the pandemic and serve communities during the upcoming holiday and Christmas season.” Since March, the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, The Salvation Army Hawaiian &Pacific Islands Division has provided more than 200,000 meals, snacks, and drinks; more than 49,000 food boxes, and more than 14,000 basic needs items to those in need in Hawai‘i. To make it easier to contribute, starting Monday, the Salvation Army is making it safer and simpler to donate. Virtual Red Kettles have been launched for each island community. Simply visit HawaiiRedKettle.org, scroll down to select the island community to support. The Salvation Army will also be announcing potential locations for the iconic Red Kettles and its bell ringers in the near future. To ensure the safety of bell ringers, donors, and partners, The Salvation Army has adopted nationally-mandated safety protocols at the Red Kettle locations. Supporters will be able to donate digitally with Apple Pay or Google Pay at any Red Kettle in Hawai‘i. Every donation provides help and hope to those in need, and all gifts stay within the community in which they are given. To contribute online, visit Hawaii.SalvationArmy.org.

Sending a parcel these days is a lot simpler than it used to be. However, that doesn’t mean to say there aren’t things which could go wrong. If you’re looking to send a fragile parcel for example, there are a lot of mistakes you can make which will either potentially damage your goods or end up costing you more to actually send it. To help you avoid these potential problems, below you’ll discover the 10 most common mistakes made when sending a fragile parcel. 10 – Not adding enough padding Fragile items will require some level of padding. Failing to add it could lead to the goods becoming damaged in transit. Bubble wrap remains the best padding solution, but you could also use foam pellets or airbags. 09 – Choosing the wrong size packaging You don’t want the packaging to be too big as this will cost more to send. However, you also don’t want it to be too small either as this increases the risk of damage. So, make sure you’re choosing packaging which is just right for the size of the item you’re sending. 08 – Not shopping around There are so many different couriers available these days and each offers totally different pricing structures. When it comes to sending specialist parcels, such as fragile ones, you need to make sure you’re getting the best price. So, take advantage of sites which compare parcel delivery costs for you in order to find the cheapest one. 07 – Failing to use a box While it can be tempting to use plastic packaging to reduce delivery costs, not using a box could lead to the items becoming damaged. So, always use a lightweight, yet strong box. 06 – Packing fragile items together Fragile items should never be packaged together. They could easily bang against one another, causing damage in transit. So, always pack fragile items separately to prevent potential damage claims. 05 – Weighing the parcel incorrectly This is a common mistake people make with any delivery. When weighing the parcel to determine postage costs, always do it after the parcel has been fully wrapped. If you don’t, your customers could be hit with additional postage costs upon delivery. 04 – Not reinforcing the box Fragile items need to be kept in a well-secured box. It’s not always enough to add padding, you also need to reinforce the corners and sides of the box. 03 – Placing the item in the wrong place Did you know you should place fragile items in the centre of the box? If it’s too near the sides, it could easily become damaged. 02 – Failing to write “This Way Up” Unless you write “This Way Up” on the box, the courier could unknowingly damage its contents by placing it upside down. Additionally, you should write “Fragile” on the box. 01 – Not sealing the box properly Finally, not sealing the box properly can be a costly mistake. It’s recommended you use the H-Tape method, placing tape along the centre, then horizontally across. There are many mistakes you can make when sending a fragile parcel as you can see from the list above. So, if you want to avoid additional costs and potential damages, follow the tips above.

The latest on politics and the Flood Bill? The bill to extend it through May 31, 2019 had passed the House. It had passed the Senate earlier, so it now goes to President Donald Trump for his signature. His signing it would be good, as there are some areas of the nation which have flood warnings as we start winter. Forget the whole, “Winter is coming” thing. It’s here, both seasonally and, for many lenders, with business conditions. Staff cuts all done, down to skeleton crews? Expenses down far enough to be competitive? Reduced LO comp and lowered max caps? Shifted underwriting to your investors? Somewhat dire, yes, but the industry is expected to do about $1.5 trillion next year, and it has to be originated somewhere! Don’t forget that owners and managers of mortgage companies, and bank mortgage divisions, are smart, savvy business people. All of that reminded me of a note from an industry vet in San Diego: “I remember the CFO of a San Jose-based mortgage company telling me in the early 1990’s that as year-end was approaching, he instructed the shipping group to work overtime to ship as many loans as possible. For accounting purposes, gains and losses were recorded when loans were shipped. He did not specify which loans to ship and the company needed to report income to maintain its minimum net worth test for its warehousing agreement covenants. But shipping shipped too many loans with losses and the warehouse lenders provided a one-month waiver as the company shipped the loans with gains in January.” Industry vet James Johnson sent this note. “Rob: You might find this interesting. Last week I had a very nice Holiday lunch with a group of my mortgage banking buddies. These guys are all very current on what is going on in the biz, and we spent a good part of the day discussing today’s tough market and how this might play out. The next day one of the attendees sent me an email commenting, ‘I did not come away with any comfort on how long it will take for the market cycle to turn favorable.’ I think this is the question just about everybody is asking, so I will give you my opinions. “With one possible exception (a big drop in rates), there is really nothing that is going to make things better any time soon. House sales are slowing, house prices are not going up like over the past few years and are softening in many markets, homebuilding is likely slowing as well. So, no obvious pick up in volume. Margins are not good right now and will not get better until we see a considerable reduction in capacity, both through failures, consolidations, and eventually people leaving the industry. During our lunch discussion, we all saw this process taking some time to play out. “My personal opinion is this consolidation trend will accelerate in 2019, but things will not get better until 2020 or more likely 2021. In the meantime, it is only a guess how many casualties we will have. Your comments about owners bleeding capital and having to put personal money back into the business are right on the mark, and we all wonder how long that will continue? I think our consensus was that bleeding capital makes no good business sense, but owners are determined to ride out the storm and will continue to battle the trends. Most of the company owners I talk with are actually pretty realistic about what is going on but are reluctant to make moves to do something about it. That is why I see this whole down market dragging on with a slow bleed. Too many owners will either go under or lose half of their net worth before things stabilize. A sad commentary.” The Mortgage Collaborative’s COO Rich Swerbinsky has some thoughts on where the residential lending industry will be in 2019, as well as the twenty things most “top of mind” for individual lenders. State law changes impacting lenders Things quieted down for state-level changes in December, but many states have residential regulations under consideration heading into 2019. The Washington Department of Financial Institutions (DFI) has recently issued interim guidance on the use of a trust account when receiving reimbursement for payments to third-party service providers. The DFI plans to implement this guidance through rulemaking in 2019. Through this new guidance, the DFI seeks to clarify the Washington Mortgage Broker Practices Act as it applies to the use of trust accounts. The DFI provides an interpretation for, but does not amend, the Act. As industry practices have changed over time, the DFI has determined that consumers can be protected, and the regulatory burden lessened, by providing a simplified interpretation. The DFI’s new guidance states that: 1) funds received by a broker from or on behalf of a borrower for payment to third-party providers prior to closing are considered trust funds; and 2) funds received by a broker from a settlement agent or lender, on or after closing, for reimbursement to the broker solely for payment to third-party service providers, are not trust funds. The Ohio Legislature has passed SB263, the Notary Public Modernization Act, a bill supported by OMBA. The legislation is on its way to the Governor to be signed into law. The bill will give the ability to consumers to choose to conduct their real estate finance transactions using remote online notarial acts and will modernize the notary function. Notarial acts are a necessary component of the residential loan closing process. As the industry continues to serve consumers’ needs by using online, mobile and other electronic means, it had become clear that Ohio needed a law in place to support this technology shift. The legislation makes remote online notarizations equivalent to traditional notarizations without risks and unnecessary barriers. The legislation provides appropriate safeguards that ensure that fraud and capacity issues are appropriately addressed by the remote notarization process. The legislation also provides needed reform in the notarization process and raises the professional standards for those performing the notary act. Most lenders have current adjustable-rate products, or servicing, tied to various indices. Including the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). At the current time the plan is to phase LIBOR out, given past indiscretions regarding fixing, and the Mortgage Bankers Association is watching it. Dan Fichtler reports, “The MBA is spending quite a bit of time on the transition away from LIBOR. On the residential policy side, MBA has a working group on the mortgage-related elements of the transition – this group is our main venue for all of our policy work on the issue. Our main goal (aside from educating our members…see more below) is to serve as a forum for establishing best practices and/or standardization for the industry. This will include discussions around criteria for choosing new benchmarks for future production, operational issues related to servicing legacy loans tied to LIBOR, new consumer and other disclosures, and changes to fallback language in contracts. “We have also been covering the issue through our policy committees and conferences. Our Secondary & Capital Markets Committee and Community Bank/Credit Union Network have heard from senior officials from the Fed and ICE (the administrator of LIBOR). We have also had panels on the LIBOR transition at our Secondary and Financial Management conferences, with more coming in 2019. These efforts are largely meant to provide information and education to our membership. “As far as the GSEs, our expectation is that they will be spending more time in 2019 determining: 1) what they will accept in terms of future production; and 2) what benchmark(s) they will use for servicers of legacy loans tied to LIBOR. We hope to work with them on issues like potential changes in the note language and the developments of timelines and implementation instructions (a la the Single Security Playbook, for example). “Finally, we are encouraging all of our members to identify their LIBOR exposures now…that’s an important proactive step that institutions can take, even if they don’t have answers to questions related to future production and servicing just yet.” The Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority has issued guidance on replacing Libor, warning that moving to alternative reference rates has legal, valuation and operational-readiness risks. FINMA says amending contracts that mature after 2021 “to include practicable fallback clauses could help minimize potential legal risks”. SIFMA weighed in with some history and where the capital markets are on moving away from LIBOR and toward SOFR. “Another significant change impacting markets is the transition away from the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) as the standard reference rate. It is estimated $200 trillion of financial contracts and securities ($190 trillion in derivatives; $10 trillion in corporate bonds, mortgages, securitized products, credit card receivables, etc.) are tied to LIBOR, being used by small businesses, corporations, banks, broker- dealers, consumers and investors as a benchmark for short-term interest rates. In response to concerns regarding the reliability and robustness of LIBOR and other reference rates across the globe, the Financial Stability Board (FSB), as established by the G20, and Financial Stability Oversight Council (FSOC) called for the development of alternative risk-free benchmark interest rates supported by liquid, observable markets. “In the U.S. in 2014, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the New York Fed established the Alternative Reference Rates Committee (ARRC), which eventually selected the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) as the recommended alternative reference rate for the U.S. LIBOR is based on thinner markets and is not fully transaction based – the most active tenor (three months) posts less than $1 billion transactions per day – and submitted rates typically include expert judgement from market participants when determining the rate. SOFR, however, is based on the overnight repo markets, with over $700 billion of transactions per day. It is fully transaction based and therefore regarded as more robust than LIBOR. “The ARRC will continue to lead the transition away from LIBOR. Its objectives include, among others: identifying best practices for alternative reference rates and contract robustness; making recommendations for developing an implementation plan for orderly transitions away from LIBOR on a voluntary basis; and working with market participants to encourage the development of sufficient liquidity in futures and swaps markets referencing the new rate. The ARRC’s plan for a smooth transition away from LIBOR is ahead of schedule.” While the ARC’s work in the U.S. is helpful, bank legal experts are concerned financial regulators in different countries may embrace inconsistent fallbacks to replace Libor. Uncertainty about Libor fallbacks is making it difficult for banks to plan and is prompting calls for a supranational approach. Stay tuned! (Yes, this is a gal’s joke; I am merely passing it along.) Looking in the mall for a cotton nightgown, I tried my luck in a store known for its hot lingerie. To my delight, however, I found just what I was looking for. Waiting in the line to pay, I noticed a young woman behind me holding the same nightgown. This confirmed what I suspected all along, that despite being over 50, I still have a very “with it” attitude. “I see we have the same taste,” I said proudly to the 20-something behind me. “Yes,” she replied. “I’m getting this for my grandmother for Christmas.” Visit www.robchrisman.com for more information on our industry partners, access archived commentaries, or to subscribe to the Daily Mortgage News and Commentary.

Hope House & Gardens fell victim to a break-in and vandalism in the month of November. Early in the month, someone broke the plexiglass on the door of the Little Library that stands in the neighborhood garden. A couple of weeks later, someone kicked in the door to the Hope House studio. "These things happen," said VEJ executive director BT Irwin. "It doesn't matter where you are or who you are, this is just part of having property. You just have to plan for it and respond as best you can." Irwin said that whoever broke into the studio did not damage anything inside and did not take anything. He or she closed and and tried to lock the door when he or she left. "The break-in happened during an intense cold snap when the temperature was down close to zero," said Irwin. "Our best guess is that someone just needed to warm up." Irwin said these are the first cases of vandalism at Hope House & Gardens since he joined VEJ in September 2017. He said he believes both cases are random and don't point to a trend. "We have great neighbors on Greydale Street," said Irwin. "Abdul and his family live a few doors down, Randall lives right next door, and Regina lives right behind Hope House. They all look out for the place like it's their own. People around Hope Park are respectful of Hope House & Gardens." Rather than add more security (which isn't really possible), Irwin said he would rather focus on looking for ways to better meet the needs of the neighborhood. "If someone is cold enough or hungry enough to break into Hope House, what does that tell us about the needs of our neighbors?" asked Irwin. "We don't need to be asking how to 'build a higher fence,' but how to remove barriers between people and what they need."

- Amenities & Activities - About Us - Assisted Living - News & Events How an Assisted Living Facility Can Make Retirement Years Easier As a person ages there can be so many issues and events that occur which can potentially become obstacles to independence: The death of a spouse. Declining health. Isolation from the community due to losing the ability to drive. Any or all of these situations can drastically alter a senior’s quality of life, and make living alone less attractive or impossible. There is a Solution that Can Help People Retain Their Independence: Assisted Living Some people think living in a nursing home is the next step for seniors who have experienced various life changes.

WHAT WE ARE ALL ABOUT The Early Career Researchers Community – Dance (ECR Community) seeks to build a strong and sustainable international community specifically geared towards supporting the needs of early career dance researchers. The process of research degrees can be very isolating and challenging (to say the least), and those who pursue a research career afterwards face a challenging job market. So here we are, a community for: - professional development, mentoring and networking opportunities; - peer support; and - information sharing. Our point of difference is that we approach dance ECR issues from ECR perspectives. WHO IS IT FOR? ECR Community is for anyone who identifies as an early career dance researcher. This includes: - Honours, Masters and PhD researchers; and - researchers who have finished a research degree in the last 5 years. ecrcdance (at) gmail.com

Are you interested in making a great cup of coffee? Do you just want to learn about everything that is related to this drink? If so, this is where you should start. Coffee has been around for quite some time and is used by many people. Follow along to hear more. Many people store coffee in their freezers because it keeps it fresher for a longer amount of time. However, many people fail to realize it needs to be wrapped well. If you place it in the freezer with strong-smelling foods, and it is not wrapped tightly, there is a chance your coffee will pick up those odours. Always find out how much caffeine a certain type of coffee contains before drinking it. Espressos do not necessarily contain more caffeine than other types of coffees. If you go to a coffee shop, your barista should be able to tell you how much caffeine you are getting in each beverage, but you might have to do some research about the beans you are using if you make your own coffee. Coffee can be of great assistance if you work at home and need some air. Generally, these places have WiFi access and human interaction so you can work there and have our coffee. Restaurants are also good options for escaping the confines of your home office. For best coffee flavor, buy whole beans. Then, grind only the amount that you plan on using. You will find that your coffee has a stronger flavor. You will also use less product to make that fabulous taste. Additionally, you can create custom blends using different beans, so that you can impress your friends. Always make sure that you store your coffee in an airtight container if you are not planning on using it. This will help to preserve its freshness so that you can make coffee that is desirable for all of your friends and family. Coffee tastes the best when it is fresh, as this will help to optimize your brew. Iced coffee doesn’t taste so great when the ice cubes begin to melt, watering down the flavor. An excellent tip is to make ice cubes out of coffee or milk, and keeping them in the freezer in zippered bags. They will be handy anytime you want a cold drink on a hot day! If you normally drink coffee at home but are getting tired of the same-old tastes, keep an eye open when you pass by coffee shops and houses. Coffee shops have new flavors and drinks they release and test out all the time, particularly seasonally.

No Country for Old Devs Kalvin Martinez / Jun 4th, 2015 No Comments Game development has changed. It more true now than ever. The tools to develop video games are easier to come by with more accessible options to license powerful development engines. Even the means to finance development has radically shifted with the success, popularity and ease of crowd funding. It is a brave new world for game development, especially for the video game auteur. While the means to develop games has become more open and accessible, the environment for major publishers has become more constricting. It is just business, and all that. Whatever cache a creator’s name had is gone. Konami’s ousting of Hideo Kojima and rebranding of Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain sans Kojima may be the death rattle of the rock star creators. No Man’s Land For a long time, video games have been about the brand regardless of the creative force behind it. A Super Mario Bros. or Pac-Man game is what gets people’s juices flowing. However, there are always exceptions. Few creators have transcended the brands they helped birth. Without Hideo Kojima’s involvement in Metal Gear Solid, it doesn’t hold as much water. The man has supplanted the brand. It doesn’t matter though, given increasing development times and costs, and publishers being more adverse to risk as a result. Dumping millions of dollars and years of development into one game based on the vision of an iconoclast doesn’t make much sense in the current environment. And this isn’t an isolated incident. Capcom has a long track record of pushing away talented creators like Keiji Inafune. Konami itself has thrust talent out — Koji Igarashi and his hat and whip last year. What is an auteur to do when he is without a outlet? Highly visible developers become linked to a game series, as Inafune was with Mega Man and Igarashi with Castlevania. When these games do well, the face of the franchise is able to continue championing the series. Yet when games underperform or the response isn’t frenzied, the series either goes on hiatus (Mega Man) or the publisher goes in a different direction (Castlevania). The assumption is that fans no longer care about these games, so it makes no sense to continue putting resources into making them. This ends up hamstringing creators. But it is a false assumption that fans don’t care about these games anymore. This becomes clear when looking at the rousing crowd funding successes of Mighty No. 9 and Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night. Inafune left Capcom in late 2010 to start Comcept. It would be another three years and a few games before he attempted to make another Mega Man game — or a game deceptively Mega Man-like. Yet, when Inafune and Comcept launched the Kickstarter campaign for Mighty No. 9, it was a massive success. The campaign raised nearly $3 million more than its stated goal, proving a rousing desire to see another Mega Man game even if it can’t officially star the blue bomber. It didn’t take nearly as long for Igarashi to mount a spiritual successor to Castlevania. A year after his exodus from Konami, Igarashi launched a campaign for Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night. As obviously Mega Man as Mighty No. 9 is, Bloodstained is, without any restraint, a new Castlevania. Fans are apparently rabid for more “Igavania” games from the hat and whip maestro. The game raised its initial $500,000 funding goal within hours, and is on track to break several dozen stretch goals before its funding period closes. Once again, this proved there is a call for these creators, but not necessarily in the traditional game development structure. Kept You Waiting, Bruh Over the last few years we’ve seen rock star creators fall by the wayside with the closing of Irrational Studios, Cliff Bleszinski leaving Epic and the whole confusing affair with Sony and Fumito Ueda. With the removal of Kojima from MGS V materials and the cancellation of Silent Hills, the end of an era seems upon us. The big question is what does Kojima do next? Does he start writing screenplay like Ken Levine? Does he take an independent route and make free-to-play games? Do we see him find another big industry home, or does he take his visions to the people like Inafune and Igarashi? Can the public afford to fund such elaborate visions without being promised exclusive spaceships? tags: Bloodstained , Hideo Kojima , Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain , Mighty No. 9 , opinion , Silent Hills

Himalaya: Listen. Learn. Grow. Reconstructionist Radio Master Feed How Should Christians Respond to Discussions of Racial Injustice? The Monstrous Crew In today's episode, we had the privilege of sitting down with Shatoyia Bradley, a business owner, fashion designer, writer, editor, wife, and mother for a frank discussion about racism, her experience as a black woman in the church and in America, and loving our neighbors in the context of systemic injustice. Race and Black Theology Reading List: An Annotated Bibliography Below is a list of books that I highly recommend. They aren’t listed in order of importance, however, “Democracy in Black: How Race Still Enslaves the American Soul by Eddie Glaude, would be a great start. The typical set of caveats apply to this bibliography, like many others in its category, of course. Black thought is not a monolith; like any tradition, it is less a sustained echoing chorus, and more a long argument over time. Its diversity, breadth, and sophistication cannot be captured in a brief introductory bibliography like this one. The authors on this list have sustained disagreements with each other, and therefore it stands to reason that no reader will agree with the entirety of these texts. Yet we consider this list to be something of a bare minimum for serious discourse about the question of taking black experiences and contributions seriously in Christian theology and ethics. While it is unlikely that any treatment of the experiences of blacks in America will engage all of these sources, it is virtually unimaginable that any responsible treatment of those questions can proceed with reference to none of them. The education of several lifetimes can be accessed simply by consulting the bibliographies of the sources contained herein. The criteria for inclusion on this list are unsystematic and inexact, but we solicited suggestions from friends of Mere Orthodoxy for sources that are written by Christians, substantively address Christian involvement in black racial issues, or are of pressing significance that white Christians can overlook them only at great harm to the power of their own analysis and ignorance of the real issues. The commentary that follows each of these selections below is from these friends. We are grateful for and indebted to them for their suggestions. Omission of any important source from this list ought not necessarily be construed as a sleight against that source. We would be grateful for readers to suggest additional sources in the comments below. The Cambridge Companion to Black Theology An introductory handbook like this one is often an excellent place to start to understand the broad contours of a body of thought, and to find an accessible point for immersing oneself more fully in that tradition. The essays in this volume understand black theology as a global movement, not at all confined to the question of addressing racism in all of its varietie...

Sylheti is the language spoken by 95% of Bangladeshis living in the U.K. This language has been described as being distinct from Bengali in terms of phonology and morphology and shares 80% of its vocabulary with Bengali, the rest being quite distinctive. Standard Bengali can be perceived as being so different from Sylheti that it has been mistaken as "Pakistani". In turn, speakers of other Bengali dialects can find Sylheti "hardly intelligible". The writing system for Sylheti is called Sylheti Nagri, last taught in schools in Sylhet more than 50 years ago, although a number of English transliteration schemes are also often used to represent the language.

Let’s do it Mysore is a movement initiated to motivate and encourage Mysoreans towards beautifying the heritage city by keeping it clean. It’s a movement inspired by Let’s do it World. It was launched in the year 2014, with the motive of crowning Mysore as the cleanest city in India; their efforts made it a reality! Since there was no looking back. The NGO has indulged itself in various campaigns promoting cleanliness in the city, taking up regular clean up drives in prime areas, promoting the youth of the city to involve themselves in such drives. The NGO not only focuses on cleaning of a place but also seeks its beautifying & regular maintenance. It educates the residents about the importance of hygiene and cleanliness and makes them involved in their regular clean up drives. It also engages in conducting various social campaigns to make it’s message reach out to everyone in the city. The NGO has stood strong with the people of Mysore at the time of natural calamities by playing a good Samaritan and reaching out to those in need of help. It served as a leading example at times of crisis by bridging the gap between the donors and the needy. It has succeeded in uniting Mysureans towards achieving a common goal of keeping the city -clean, beautiful & hygienic. It has selflessly contributed for the betterment of the city in the past and continues to pursue the same.

Ashley National Forest, Utah, 1998 by Tami Merkley, PIT Volunteer The deadline was April 15, a day that fills many with dread. The “other” form I filled out and mailed that day was my PIT application. I waited to see if I was selected for a project. Along with 14 lucky people, I “drew” a spot (this sounds like an elk hunt) on the Dripping Springs Survey Project. On June 22, we all showed up at Site 3, or C, depending on who one had talked to. Introductions were made, and papers were filled out. After an impromptu lunch, Ute Elder Clifford Duncan spoke of his ancestors and how they still live on through his people, and of the spiritual aspect of all living things. He told us about his people—past, present, and future—and related some of their beliefs. We were reminded to keep all of this in mind when we were hiking and helping to record sites. After Mr. Duncan left, we were all quickly inundated with a mountain of paper—forms with back sides, front sides, and no sides. We learned how to draw maps (somewhat), read a compass (not at all for some of us), and hoped that we would be chosen to take pictures of the sites (the best part). Rock identification was difficult for those of us who think all rocks should be put into one classification—rocks. We had tiger chert that most of the time did not look like a tiger, and sheep creek quartzite that in no way resembled a sheep, or a creek, for that matter. There were lithic scatters that I thought at first were something the dinosaurs left behind. I personally liked Form A, which had a line for the names of assisting crew members. Sounds like an operation, but it helped me to remember the wonderful people who came along for the ride. Assignments were handed out bright and early on Tuesday morning. Dr. Byron Loosle would be in charge of long, out-of-the-way, scenic byways and marathon hikes. Nicole, a.k.a. Cupid, was responsible for the love-struck. And Kelda was in charge of the lost and wandering souls. Paul and Susan (pollen season) were responsible for our itchy, watery eyes and sneezing and wheezing. With day packs and enough water for a camel to be envious, we officially started the project. (Photo: J. P. Reynolds, Tami and Kali Merkley, and Ryan and Kurt Gamlin finish a transect on the edge of Red Canyon in the Dripping Springs survey, Photo courtesy of Byron Loosle) That first night around the campfire, we had grand discussions on a variety of topics. Nicole told of her adventure in Ireland, and of those who went weeping into the bushes every time it rained. This was prophetic, since the next day it rained on us. Though I don’t think anyone went weeping into the bushes, many learned that they could shift into turbo hiking speed when the weather turned bad. I would almost bet a few world records were broken that day while heading back to camp. Byron, our brave leader, had a prior engagement and so missed all the excitement as we came “dripping” back into camp. I wonder if that was part of how this project got its name? In my humble opinion, this PIT project was a resounding success because no one was hurt. To quote a popular movie, “Beginnings are kind of scary, endings are usually sad, and the middles are always the most enjoyable part.” I totally agree.

Daily Reading: 4-27-16 Luke 10:25-28 New Living Translation (NLT) How important do you think it is that we learn to love by God’s standard? Jesus said it was the most important mandate from the Father and the way to eternal life. As I read our passage for today, it is clear that if I am going to learn to love by God’s standard, it means a change must come to my human ability to love. The Most Important Commandment 25 One day an expert in religious law stood up to test Jesus by asking him this question: “Teacher, what should I do to inherit eternal life?” 26 Jesus replied, “What does the law of Moses say? How do you read it?” 27 The man answered, “‘You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your strength, and all your mind.’ And, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’”[a] 28 “Right!” Jesus told him. “Do this and you will live!” God’s standard for operating in His love seems to require alterations in the love fabric of every human being. I will use myself as an example. First, I must allow true love to permeate and take up residence in my heart, because human self-love wants to be exalted there; God’s love will change who comes first in my heart. Second, I must welcome a journey for the redemption of my soul or emotions; how I express myself will be changed by God’s love. Third, I must humble myself and accept the reality that my human strength is not enough to choose to love by God’s standard; God’s love will become a buttress of strength for me to be obedient. Fourth, God’s standard of love calls for a transformation of my way of thinking; my mind will be touched and my perspective will be changed by God’s love. No matter how I look at the sequence of these things listed in our Scripture about God’s standard of love, it means ongoing change for Mary. Praise God, it also means eternal life for me. What does it mean for you? Prayer: Heavenly Father, You are perfect Love. Thank You for offering to teach me about Your standard of love and for making a way for me to operate in it. I welcome the change. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Twisted Lily Fragrance Boutique and Apothecary can best be described as the NYC version of perfume nirvana – think sleek wooden floors, purist white walls and rows upon rows of niche fragrances. At the boutique’s opening in Boerum Hill this past week, guests were greeted with Pear & Olive martinis (inspired by Josh Lobb’s creation of the same name for his Portland-based brand Slumberhouse) and introduced to the store’s 30 different fragrance brands, ranging from Brooklyn natives D.S. Durga and CB I Hate Perfume to French provocateurs Etat Libre D’Orange and all-natural brands like Providence Perfume Co. and Undergreen. Twisted Lily is the exclusive NYC carrier of brands including Maison Dorin, Jardins D’Ecrivains and Smellbent, plus the first store to bring Maison Francis Kurkdjian, Amouage, Montale and Penhaligon’s to the BK. Presenting an all-around approach, the shop also offers home fragrances, bath and body, make up and skincare products from a range of indie brands like Rouge Bunny Rouge and In Fiore. The founders behind the boutique are Eric Weiser and Stamatis Birsimijoglou, who previously created the popular e-commerce site Parfum1.com. “Our philosophy for Twisted Lily is Think Global. Act Local,” explains Weiser, “it’s not about the immediate sale but building relationships and discovering the language of perfume with our customers.” This friendly and sample-happy environment makes the visit to Twisted Lily one of calm olfactory exploration, rather than profit-orientated pressure. Birsimijoglou perfectly sums up the ethos of their endeavour by stating: “We are firm believers that individuality is the spirit of fragrance—and no two people should smell alike.” View the full article here.

How many times have you tried to enter a message or information into an internet site input fields i.e. name, address, city, state, text messages, etc. only to have an annoying error message pop up saying your entry or message exceeds the maximum number of characters including spaces allowed? You go back and retype the information only to have the same error message appear. If you’re trying to send a message or request for information in a site, you retype the message, but the input field/box is small. What you type moves up out of sight making it difficult to make see/proof what you typed without scrolling. You’ve finished typing your message. You scroll back to the top of the input field/box to proof your message. You find an error or two or decide to add more text. When you scroll down to the bottom of the text you find that because you’ve exceeded the maximum characters allowed, what you added caused the last sentence or two has been deleted. You try to type add it back in but the site won’t let you because you’re at the maximum limit… or worse… you send it BEFORE you realize it was incomplete. How many times do you go through this until the message will go through? After two or three tries you want to give up. Frustrating isn’t it? I FINALLY got smart (at least about this anyway) and came up with a plan. It’s simple, easy, and MUCH LESS frustrating… trust me. Almost every site on the internet has maximum number of character limitations for entering information into the appropriate input box or field. It’s usually the maximum number of characters including spaces or it can be maximum number of words or lines. This number might be located someplace around the input box. However, some sites don’t post this information. Instead, when you exceed the maximum, an error message pops up informing you you’ve exceeded the limit of XX number of characters, words or lines. If you have a potentially long message to send, to avoid this problem, follow these procedures: Make a note of the maximum number allowed and whether it’s characters, words or lines. Leaving the internet site open, minimize the window. Don’t leave the site and do NOT close it out. - Open up a blank document in Word or whatever word processing program you use. - Starting on the top line, type the message. Do NOT put in any extra lines at the top or bottom or extra spaces at the end of a paragraph. This will affect the count. - Read through the message and check for spelling and punctuation errors. (It’s easier to catch these errors when using a word processing program anyway.) - In Word in the toolbar at the top of the window, Click on Review then Word Count. A small window will appear indicating the number of Pages, Words, Characters (no spaces), Characters (with spaces), Paragraphs and Lines contained in the message. (Now do you see why I said don’t put in any extra lines at the top or bottom or spaces at the end of a paragraph?) (If you don’t use Word, check to see if your word processing program has this feature.) - If the input field or box in the internet site that you’re trying to enter information into has a maximum limit of, let’s say 200 characters with spaces for example, and your message has 200 or less, you’re fine. You should be able to send it with no problems. NOTE: If your message is at or below the maximum limit follow instructions 6 through 10: - Highlight the entire message. - Press Ctrl and C together OR in the toolbar above click on Edit then click on Copy. - Minimize the Word document containing the message you just typed (don’t close it out) and maximize the internet site window. - Now place your cursor in the message input box in the internet site. Press Ctrl and V together OR in the toolbar click on Edit then click on Paste. The message should be pasted in the message field/input box. - Click on Enter or whatever command is in the site to send your message. Your message should go through okay with no more error messages. NOTE: If your message is more than the limit, say 200 characters and you have 350, you’ll have to edit the message until the number of characters is 200 or below. Follow instructions 11 through 12: - Edit the message. As you edit your message, occasionally check the message for character, word or line count using Steps 3 and 5 above until you reach the maximum count or less. - Once you’ve edited the message and it contains the required maximum number of characters, words or lines, follow Steps 6 through 10 above. Below are a few suggested word shortcuts that will save many character spaces: & sign instead of the word and w/ instead of the word with # instead of the word number % instead of the word percent + sign instead of the word plus – sign instead of the word minus svcs instead of services corp instead of corporation co instead of company yrs instead of years min instead of minutes hrs instead of hours Numbers instead of typing them out i.e. 4 years instead of four years. If you find these instructions helpful, download them or highlight/copy/paste them into a blank document to save for future reference or print a copy and save it. Note: this method can be used in other situations where counting the number of words, lines, pages or characters is important i.e. manuscripts, term papers, etc. Because I charge by-the-typed-line, I use this method to get an accurate count of the total number of lines in the document to invoice my customers.

I know that this is a wine blog, but I feel a travel topic derail, abounding in my brain. It just is in need of being let out of the station. This is a trip I want to redo, with a few changes, sooner than later. At the time of this get away, I was dabbling as a travel agent and not the best about writing down or photographing all my wine with food adventures so, though it happened, you can’t see it. Oh, how times have changed. Now I’m behind my camera or phone clicking away. Keeping up with the cultures need to visualize also, appears to help keep the memories, so they don’t run away too rapidly. This trip was literally planned because I wanted to go somewhere cold in June, I wanted my currency to be of better value and for whatever reason I thought the 1st overseas experience with my husband should be English speaking. We had a limited time table so the decision was almost immediately the south island of New Zealand. The trip was based in Christchurch, with travel to different areas, exploring what we could in the time provided. I don’t generally do the tourist thing that is on the pretty brochure, yet we fit a few things in that where on the honeymoon registry. Oh, this was my honeymoon destination…not a Caribbean island girl. We felt like if people donated to our registry, part of the adventure was making all those items come into fruition. We did that then became a little more, where do the locals hang out? This is how I still travel. Hot points to local joints! Not too bad for one of the worst snows they had in years. Yet, we did crawl into our rental car from the trunk after chipping off the ice around the boot, but us winter babies just enjoyed the cool air. A few people wanted us to go on a romantic horseback riding adventure so, booked it! My horse decided to leap over a puddle. Not like the jump that I was prepared for, more of bunny hop landing me on its neck for a few seconds. I just said sorry to the horse while scooting back into the saddle. Half an hour later, while crossing the river, my husband’s horse felt like the minute we were knee deep in cold winter water, it was the best time to splash around. Cold, yes. Funny, absolutely! Since we traveled off season this adventure, that could’ve been shared with 20 or more other people was just us. It was a giggly few hours of sightseeing, learning about the area, fresh air intake and silly moments to tuck in the memory bank for future laughs. A few people, ahem, are aware I enjoy the fruits of the vine. So the next to do item on the list was wine tasting. Since I paid full price for two, I notified the non-wine loving spouse that he would need to enjoy the sweet stuff he loves, whenever it was offered. However this guided venture in the Canterbury/Waipara Valley region ended in a shop full of Schnapps type spirits, which appeared to be my husband’s boozy candy store adventure. I enjoyed discovering the flavors of the region, yet nothing jumped in a bag to fly home with me other than a few types of flavored spirits. I foresee a future trip. I contacted http://www.nzwine.com/ prior to our trip, requesting anything they thought would be useful for wine discoveries. So with wine maps and other information in tow we decided to drive north to explore the wines in the Marlborough region. We started at the other Mud House Winery location so that I could discover if I could taste the difference in the regions. Then we wound our way around seeing what we could find. Views that had snow peaked mountains meeting sandy beaches caught my heart. We stopped for a late lunch at a natural food restaurant where I bought a lot of homemade fruit leathers to snack on during our road trips. There was a small tasting room that was attached to the restaurant, pouring five different wineries juice, and that was when the bottles decided they wanted to fly home with me. I can’t shake my taste for the small producer that pours their love into the bottle. Beautiful Pinot Noirs filled with young, delicate strawberry flavors and Sauvignon Blanc that enraptured me with tropical fruit baskets of guava and passionfruit. Truly tastes too be remembered. From here we decided to visit closer attractions to the town for a few days with one more mountain driving excursion. For now, I’ll leave this as a too be continued until tomorrow story.

I want media outlets to stop using the phrase ‘sex allegations’ when they mean ‘rape allegations.’ I want them to stop using the phrase ‘priest sex scandal’ and instead use ‘child rape scandal.’ These headlines minimize and mislead and they are CONTRIBUTING TO RAPE CULTURE. Consider this headline from The Star: This sounds like they think he cheated on his wife, or visited a sex worker, or engaged in some sort of kinky but still perfectly acceptable sexual behavior. Nope! They think he raped people. Because that’s what multiple women, unrelated to one another, have come forward and said that he did. When you write headlines like this about accused rapists, you make rape sound like something that is sort of titillating and fun. Something uptight people might have a problem with. Something sexual, that is necessarily between consenting adults, and is private. That’s not what rape is, fuckfaces. Rape is not sex. It is rape. Other headlines. I fixed them for the outlets; my additions in red. You’re welcome, assholes: Jian Ghomeshi reveals details of sex scandal rape allegations after threatening to sue CBC for $50 million Jian Ghomeshi Says CBC Split Came After Sex Life Details Threatened To Emerge; Actual Details Were Rape Allegations — Huffington Post Ghomeshi defends sex life despite the fact that he was fired for rape allegations, plans to sue CBC over firing The Globe and Mail Gawker is the only easily googleable headline that actually makes sense: After the ‘catholic priest sex scandal’ that was actually a ‘catholic priest child rape and massive coverup scandal,’ then comes this. I’ve had it. STOP THE BULLSHIT. YOUR VERY HEADLINES ARE RAPE APOLOGIES. STOP IT. As my friend Naomi put it: “Dear Media People: YOU CAN BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE IN THE WORLD.”

From Tuesday through Friday my family and I are participating in “Trek,” which, in the local dialect of Mormon-speak, is interpreted to mean “hiking and camping with handcarts, hymns, and harmonicas.” Just like our pioneer ancestors. I joked that this event was a cross between a Mormon Pioneer cosplay and an Oregon Trail LARP, but I’ve been told that this is not the case, and no, I’m not allowed to pretend to have died of dysentery so I can go home. If it sounds like I’m making light of it, that’s because I make light of pretty much everything. Especially things of which I’m frightened. Camping in general has lost its appeal for me. Hiking? Sounds suspiciously like work. Doing them together, so that after a long hike you get a crap bed and food you carried and zero long soaks in a hot bath? Let’s just say it’s not Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup math. I am not, however, a heartless, spineless fool who cannot see the benefit in these things. Sandra and I have been given the opportunity to walk the trail our ancestors walked one-point-six centuries ago, and we get to do so with all four of our children. The window of opportunity for this activity is pretty much this year, or never. Our kids are growing up and growing out. If we want to be miserable, all six of us, together in Wyoming, this is the time to do it. Am I making light again? Perhaps. We won’t have “electronic devices” with us, which is Trek-speak for “no phones, no music-players, no movies, no laptops, no getting any work done Howard, and if you want to take pictures the camera must only be a camera, not a smart-something.” If I want to tweet anything I’ll have to write it by hand in my journal, and carefully count the characters on my fingers to make sure I don’t use too many. I am issuing an electronics exemption for my Fitbit, which I will be wearing for the whole trip. I have it on good authority that the pioneers had 1) odometers, and 2) timepieces. Besides, this is the damaged one (the replacement from the manufacturer is still in the packaging) and the repair scars I’ve inflicted upon it exemplify the old saw about thrift: Use it up, wear it out. Make it do, or do without. That particular aphorism probably dates from after the time period in question, but only because during the time period in question you didn’t need to say such a thing, because it was what everybody did without some pithy rhyme as a reminder. In this spirit, everything I’m wearing, carrying, or packing is newly acquired for this trip EXCEPT for the anachronometer on my wrist. Especially the shoes, which I have already broken in and stress-tested on a 22,000-step day. If my ancestors had crossed the plains in boots like these they really would have sang as they walked. The point is that I’m going dark for four days. We’ll be back on Saturday, and I’ll be refreshed and ready for my presentation at the Salt Lake Public Library.

To some seasoned developers, test-driven development (TDD) can initially seem like the dumbest thing ever. Once you’ve written a failing test, you are supposed to write only as much code as needed to make the test to pass. No speculation about what you think you need in the future–a week from now, an hour from now, or even ten minutes from now. Per Bob Martin’s three laws of TDD, write no more production code than “sufficient to pass the one failing unit test.” “But I know I will want a hashmap in the next test or two, because I’ll have a bunch of keys and values…” You’re a seasoned developer, so you’re probably right most of the time when you say you’ll need it. And yes, if following TDD, for now you must provide a simpler implementation. “That seems stupid; providing the simpler solution now means that I’ll be reworking it later to create the right one.” Tradeoffs: Code-Test-Fix vs. Test-Code/Fix As with most things in computing, TDD is a tradeoff. It trades off your current way of working–likely a code-test-fix cycle–with a test-code/fix cycle. In a code-test-fix cycle, you write what you think the proper code is, you design and run tests (whether they are manual or automated), and you fix any problems that you discover. The duration of each step (code, test, and fix) usually varies dramatically, anywhere from minutes to hours (and sometimes longer). The tests you write usually cover a large subset of the behaviors in the code you just wrote. A perfect developer ends up with no fix cycle segment in code-test-fix (aka test-after development or TAD). In a test-code/fix cycle, you define completion criteria for the code to be written in the form of automated tests. You write the code you think meets the behavior demonstrated in the tests, and fix any attempts that do not make the tests pass. You also clean the code. The duration of each step (test, code/fix, and refactor, also known as red-green-refactor in TDD) is fairly consistent and very short–ideally no more than 5 minutes. A perfect developer ends up writing code forthwith that passes the test. A key distinction of test-code/fix, then, is that the test you write determines the scope of the code to write. Your goal is to code only logic for the behavior within the scope of this test. If your code is insufficient, the tests do not pass. Any more code than specified by the tests falls outside the scope that they define. You can choose to write additional tests to describe (and vet) these “excess” behaviors, but you are now out of the TDD rhythm: Such tests will pass when you execute them. You can of course choose not to write additional tests, in which case some unknown amount of the excess behaviors will be untested. It is a choice, but at this point you are no longer doing TDD, by definition. What Behaviors Did You Add? So what if you’re not doing TDD? So what if you’re not testing everything? Breaking the TDD rhythm (by writing code in excess of the tests defined) carries the same ramifications as doing TAD in general, ones that you’ve already learned to accept as a seasoned developer. Confidence in code correctness is but one reason to practice TDD, however. The tests TDD creates can also document the voluminous choices you make as a developer. When you choose to add behaviors without providing tests, you encode this behavior in way that is often not easily decoded: It can take a long time to uncover intent in the midst of any volume of code. Well-designed tests can immediately impart the choices you make about the behaviors you designed into the code. They act as trustworthy documentation on the intended capabilities of the system. Even with well-designed tests that document choices made in the code, you can produce code that resists easy comprehension. You’re not likely a perfect writer: When you first write anything (an article, an email, a blog post, a tweet, etc.), you often bloat it with unnecessary words, or create text that’s difficult to decipher. Good writing is a process of getting your thoughts down, then returning to edit these thoughts for clarity. And so it is with code. Even if you excel at writing the correct (test-passing) code out of the gate, chances are good that it’s a little or even a lot messy. Perhaps it is code that others find difficult to understand. Perhaps it duplicates other concepts already in your system. Perhaps it violates your team standards. Perhaps it could be written more concisely (maybe using a construct you’re vaguely aware of, but you wanted to get the code working first). Perhaps you realize a slightly-better name for the variable you chose, particularly once you re-read the code to yourself. Getting ideas down in some form, then cleaning them up, is how most of us do and should work. The realization of prose on paper, or code in an editor, makes it easier for you (and others) to see the messiness in all its glory. Once it’s in our face, we know that we should clean it up. TDD builds this editing process into the cycle. Once you produce code that works, you can immediately and safely shape it into something that will help decrease the cost of its maintenance. Back to test-after: Adding untested code reduces your confidence about making changes to that code. Consciously or otherwise, you will similarly reduce the amount of code editing you do. Is Speculative Generality Excess Code? Suppose you’re tasked with building a stock portfolio. Along with supporting the ability to purchase shares of symbols (e.g. AAPL or IBM), the portfolio should answer the number of distinct symbols. You’re an experienced developer. “I’m going to create this hashmap now to capture the number of shares purchased for each stock symbol, because that’s the solution I’m going to end up with.” If the only test you’ve written so far is around purchasing shares for a given stock symbol, the following potential tests pass as soon as you run them–if you even think to write them: increases the number of distinct symbols on the purchase of new stock symbol does not increase the number of distinct symbols when a purchase is made for a symbol already purchased The immediately-passing tests put you out of the realm of TDD. So yes, to answer this section’s titular question, your speculative hashmap represents excess code. The Cost of Unrealized Speculation As suggested earlier, most of the time you’re probably right about the generalities you think you need. When you’re right, it may seem like a waste of time to incrementally rework code (by starting with a specific solution and generalizing it a bit with each test). Still, the incremental solution keeps you on a rhythm, creates documentation for all intents in the system, prevents you from injecting defects, and allows you to keep the code clean incrementally. Every once in a while, however, you aren’t right about the generalities needed. In the cases where you aren’t right, the incorrect and unneeded generality will cost you in the interim: The additional, unnecessary complexity can increase the effort required to read and maintain the code, over and over again across the lifetime of the system. (It can also raise questions about “why” and intent that can be hard to answer.) And when it comes time to support new behavior, it will usually take longer with an overly complex implementation than the simplest possible one. You might view the incremental path that TDD promotes as a means of exploration. Seeking a simpler solution might open your mind up to other possibilities–things that you might not dream up if you race to the more comfortable, habitual solution that seems like it’s a foregone conclusion. For the stock portfolio, a hashmap might seem like the proper projection, but it turns out that using a time series is better suited to historical data and can also result in simpler code. More Up-Front Design? It’s possible you’re claiming foul right about now: “If I had all the requirements up front for the portfolio, particularly ones around tracking purchase history and auditing, I might have come up with the best possible design.” Maybe. It’s also possible that your predisposition to certain kinds of solutions might have led you to a design that boxed you in to a constrained and inflexible solution. A key goal of agile software development is to support and embrace change. With each iteration, a product owner can introduce new features–things never previously conceived. These interests can come about as a result of feedback from a number of events, including changes in the marketplace, changes to what a specific customer seeks, technology advances, and education regarding better techniques. For example, no major U.S. airline carrier had supported baggage fees before 2008; it’s likely that few airlines had ever imagined them. When American Airlines introduced baggage fees in May of that year, the other carriers scrambled to incorporate a feature that their systems likely didn’t support so easily. TDD: A Microcosm of Agile Iterations The TDD cycle in a sense is a microcosm of a well-executed agile process: Define what you want to do in the form of a “specification by example.” Deliver something that meets that specification. Repeat, incrementally iterating and building on what’s working so far. Both TDD and agile iterative development are feedback-driven: A key goal for each is the ability to change directions easily if new information demands it. In agile, you don’t build support for features that the product owner doesn’t ask for. Similarly, to succeed with TDD, you must adhere to and trust a core rule of TDD: Once you’ve watched a test fail, you may write only the code necessary to make the tests pass.

MIT's Department of Physics is renowned as one of the best in the country. However, it lags behind other schools in its diversity -- a trait the department is determined to change. Led by department head Edmund Bertschinger, several initiatives are underway to diversify the physics faculty, which now has six women and one underrepresented minority. The figures are higher among the student population, but there is much work to be done, says Bertschinger. Last month, Bertschinger presented a plan to the physics faculty to draw more women and underrepresented minorities to MIT. Casting a wider net will help the department attract a higher level of academic talent, among both faculty and students, and ensure that MIT maintains its excellence, he says. "If you restrict the applicant pool for any position, you may be excluding a star candidate," he says. "There are extremely talented underrepresented minorities and women in physics that we can strive to recruit." Small but growing Some progress has already been made. Two years ago, the physics department had the smallest percentage of women faculty of any MIT department -- at slightly more than 5 percent. Since then, the department has hired two women and has an offer out to a third, which would bring the total to seven. Janet Conrad, a particle physicist who arrived at MIT last year from Columbia University, says she's accustomed to being the only woman in a group of physicists, but believes gender-balanced groups are more productive. Throughout her career, she has noticed that as more women join a research group, "women become comfortable in the group. The more women faculty you have, the more you will get." This holds true at MIT: Four of the department's six female faculty members are clustered in the Laboratory for Nuclear Science: Conrad, June Matthews, Gabriella Sciolla and Jocelyn Monroe, a Pappalardo fellow who will become an assistant professor this fall. Conrad credits Peter Fisher, head of the Particle Physics Division, and Richard Milner, head of the Laboratory for Nuclear Science, for working to make women feel welcome in particle physics. "There are times when the female postdocs and faculty outnumber the males on the fifth floor (of Building 26)," she says. "One recent evening, the fifth floor was inhabited by all women except for Professor Bruno Coppi. He burst into my office and said, 'Look how MIT has changed! It's marvelous to see this!'" Part of the recent success stems from a new directive for faculty search committees to come up with lists of star female and minority candidates. The department is also offering funding to bring promising underrepresented candidates to MIT to give talks before they apply, so they can build relationships with faculty here. Attracting more female graduate students is also a top priority, says Bertschinger. While 30 percent of the department's undergraduate physics majors are women, MIT lags comparable universities in its number of female physics graduate students. As of 2007, only 13.7 percent of MIT's physics graduate students were female, much fewer than at Harvard (37.3 percent), Columbia (35.8 percent) and Caltech (22.8 percent). Bertschinger wants MIT to start outcompeting those schools for the top women candidates. After female students are admitted, at least one female faculty member contacts each student, and current women graduate students also reach out to each admitted student, inviting them to MIT for dinners and other events. "Our students -- both undergrad and grad -- are great ambassadors for our program," says Conrad. The department also recently added a third month of paid maternity leave for graduate students, after students requested the move. These efforts appear to be having some impact already, as 25 percent of new physics PhD students who entered MIT last fall are female. While the numbers of women have been growing, progress has been lagging for minority faculty and graduate students. But several new efforts are underway to boost the number of underrepresented minorities (defined as African Americans, Mexican Americans, Puerto Rican Americans and Native Americans). In February, the department took its largest-ever contingent to the annual joint conference of the National Society of Black Physicists and National Society of Hispanic Physicists, part of an ongoing effort to recruit more minority graduate students. Underrepresented minorities make up about 16 percent of MIT's undergraduate physics majors, similar to the Institute's overall percentage of minority undergraduates, but only 3 percent of MIT's physics graduate students are minorities. One way to elevate those numbers is to build relationships with historically black colleges, in hopes of creating a pipeline of talented physics graduates from those schools to MIT. When such relationships are established, faculty and program directors from those schools will be more likely to encourage their best students to come to MIT, says Tali Figueroa, assistant professor of physics. "We have to prove to people with good students that their students will have a good experience and come out of MIT even stronger and better than they came in," says Figueroa, a Puerto Rican American who is the department's only minority faculty member. Bertschinger is also encouraging faculty who travel to large universities to give talks to stay an extra day to give another talk at a nearby black college (for example, faculty visiting the University of Maryland could also give a talk at nearby Morgan State). The department, in conjunction with the School of Science, is also thinking about setting up a post-baccalaureate program for minority students to spend a year at MIT taking classes and/or doing research before formally applying to graduate school. Such a program would be especially beneficial for students from smaller schools who might be intimidated by the thought of coming to a large research institution such as MIT, says Bertschinger. Another way to make connections with more minority students is through MIT's MSRP program, which brings minority undergraduates to the Institute every summer to do research (similar to a summer UROP). In recent years the physics department has had few students in the program, but a Florida A&M student who came last year was very successful and plans to apply to MIT for graduate school. At least three physics students plan to attend this summer. Associate professor of physics Eric Hudson helps to organize MSRP and recently won an MIT Excellence Award in Diversity and Inclusion for that work, as well as for his mentoring of minority physics students and for helping to organize the annual Converge weekend, which brings minority undergraduates to MIT to learn about the Institute before applying to grad school. Events such as MSRP and Converge can help the entire Institute fulfill its educational mission by drawing talent from the entire population, according to Hudson. "The goal of MIT is to bring the absolute best people here to work to learn about the world," Hudson says. "If you cut off large groups of people because they don't feel comfortable -- not because they can't do the work -- then you're losing out on an opportunity."

Mark Davoren is our senior reviewer here at North West End and co-ordinates alot of our Liverpool review requests. Here are his top three shows of 2017. Clicking on the title of the show will take you to Mark's review of each production. Roger McGough + Brian Patten with LiTTLe MACHiNe at Liverpool Playhouse on 28th January Roger McGough and Brian Patten are two of the original Liverpool Poets from the 1960’s whose work, alongside the sadly departed Adrian Henri, was captured in The Mersey Sound, one of the best-selling poetry books of all time with 2017 being the fiftieth anniversary of its original publication. Poetry is best heard and there is no better venue than the Liverpool Playhouse, well-versed in its own history, for this raw and energetic work to further delight again with some musical embellishment by LiTTLe MACHiNe adding a modern twist. Ellen Kent’s La Bohème at Liverpool Empire on 24th March Ellen Kent’s touring opera productions always enthral, and she is always the consummate host. Of her three productions I saw this year – the other two were Aida and Nabucco – Puccini’s La Bohème stands out for the richness of its storyline and musical accompaniment. Soprano Alyona Kistenyova’s voice is pure poetry and entrances throughout. This is one of the most performed operas worldwide and inspired a more modern musical interpretation in Rent. Northern Broadside’s For Love Or Money at Liverpool Playhouse on 21st November Northern Broadsides celebrated their 25th anniversary this year in conjunction with Hull -where it all started for them - celebrating its status as European Capital of Culture. Under the artistic direction of Barrie Rutter, they have spent the last quarter of a century turning European classics into Yorkshire yarns and giving regional theatregoers the opportunity to hear their own accents on stage. Sadly, this is Rutter’s last performance as he rails at the idiosyncratic bias of Arts Council funding and as this play itself goes to show: you just can’t trust anyone any more.

Population: 5.211 million Cook County, Illinois, is the second-most populous county in the United States. In 2018, Cook County saw more than 1,492 opioid-related deaths. In Chicago, the rate of opioid-related overdose death was highest among non-Hispanic Black individuals with a rate of 39.3 per 100,000 individuals in 2017, while in Cook County as a whole, the 2017 rate of opioid-related overdose deaths was highest among non-Hispanic White individuals with a rate of 19.9 per 100,000 individuals. During the planning phase, Cook County Health (CCH) will work with its partners to solidify existing partnerships, expand data sharing between existing partners, bring new collaborators to the table, and focus on opportunities to engage at-risk individuals who are justice-involved in evidence-based substance use disorder care (including medication-assisted treatment [MAT]), overdose prevention and harm reduction services, and wrap-around services needed to effectively address substance use. In the implementation phase, partners will actualize strategies that take full advantage of the data amassed, eliminate redundant processes, and expand access to evidence-based services, and share protocols with community-based agencies to ensure sustainability. Data sources will include, but are not limited to, information from the Cook County Medical Examiner, Cook County Adult Probation Department, and Cook County Health.

Coal Is No. 1 Quick: What was the No. 1 source of electricity production in the U.S. during the first half of 2017? If you answered renewable energy, you were wrong by a mile. If you answered natural gas, you were wrong by a tiny amount. According to the Energy Information Administration, which tracks energy use in production on a monthly basis, the single largest source of electric power for the first half of 2017 was coal. That’s an amazing finding, because liberals, especially environmental groups, keep telling us that coal is a dead industry. They ridiculed Donald Trump and called him a liar when he said that he would revive the coal industry and the related jobs. “Coal Isn’t Coming Back,” a New York Times piece assured us a few weeks after the election. “Saving coal is one promise [Trump] won’t be able to keep,” the author predicted. The Financial Times was even more blunt in its headline last month: “Coal Is Dead; Long Live the Sun.” Let’s see if the Left issues a retraction. Don’t hold your breath. According to the EIA’s July report, “EIA estimates that the share of total U.S. generation fueled by natural gas during the first half of this year averaged 29 percent. … In contrast, coal’s share of generation rose from 28 percent in the first half of 2016 to 30 percent in (the) first half of 2017.” For the full year of 2017, EIA estimates that coal will generate 3.453 million kilowatts per day, while natural gas, because of a rise in its retail price this year, will generate a hair less, or 3.432 million kilowatts. Wind and solar remain niche sources of energy, providing about one-seventh as much power as coal and gas. That’s not all. The Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Economic Analysis released reports on July 21, 2017, that “mining increased 21.6 percent. … The first quarter growth primarily reflected increases in oil and gas extraction, as well as support activities for mining. This was the largest increase since the fourth quarter of 2014.” No other major American industry had such gains, and across all industries output was up less than 2 percent. Liberals complain that coal activity isn’t a major producer of jobs because the industry is producing a lot more coal with a lot fewer workers. That is absolutely true. Ladies and gentlemen, that is called productivity. A new study by the Institute for Energy Research points out that it takes wind and solar at least 30 times more man-hours to produce a kilowatt of electricity than are required to produce that same energy from coal or oil. If you don’t think this productivity advantage of fossil fuels is a good thing, then you probably think we should bring farm jobs back by abolishing tractors and modern farm equipment. But coal jobs are not just tied to the actual mining of coal. Coal is tied to steel jobs, trucking jobs and manufacturing jobs. Using cheap and efficient energy makes every other American industry more productive and thus makes American employers far more competitive in global markets. Productivity creates higher-paying jobs in America; it doesn’t destroy them. We are not the only country that is using a lot more coal. The New York Times, of all places, reports: “Chinese companies are building or planning to build more than 700 new coal plants at home and around the world, some in countries that burn little or no coal.” India is building hundreds more. Does any of this sound like the last gasps of an industry that is “dead”? COPYRIGHT 2017 CREATORS.COM

It is truly amazing that the SoBi system has been such a fantastic success that the bikes are starting to wear out. By Kevin Love Published May 02, 2017 Recently, I took out a Hamilton Bike Share (SoBi) bike and noticed that it had received so much use that the seat was starting to wear out, with a large crack right through the centre. I was annoyed for a second, but then took a look at the bike number: 037, "O'S CLOTHES". Yes, this was one of the first 200 bikes that have been on the street since January 2015. It is truly amazing that the SoBi system has been such a fantastic success that the bikes are starting to wear out. Started with only $1.6 million in Metrolinx seed funds, SoBi provides by far the best cost/benefit ratio of any form of public transit. Hamilton Bike Share bike #037, "O's Clothes" This bike has had so much use that the seat is wearing out! You must be logged in to comment. There are no upcoming events right now. Why not post one?

The Rawcliffe Meadows work party on Sunday 11th June 2017 started at 10:30 on the banks of the New Meadow. The plan had been to manage vegetation competing with the tansy plants but this was taken a stage further in that some of the plants had started to brown off and were clearly hosts to a lot of black-fly. On this basis a decision was made to cut into the clumps that were affected but as Tansy Beetles were still active, leave the cuttings. There were only three off us (Judi, Mitch and Mick) so Judi and Mitch did the finer work whilst Mick cut back the Himalayan Balsam, hogweed and creeping thistle that were there, by the cattle grid, on the Reservoir Basin bank and along the southern bank of Blue Beck. A solitary Tansy Beetle was spotted on the plants near the cattle grid but none along Blue Beck unfortunately, although the plants there are doing well finally. A very dark Tansy Beetle was on one of the New Meadow plants. The next work party is on Thursday 22nd June at 6:30 by the Pond, tending to the tansy plants there and along the Ings Dyke, and (if we have enough volunteers) clearing a way into the Cricket Field Copse.

Things were happening to the disciples in that period six weeks after Easter … having just grown accustomed to Christ being back with them, he leaves them again in circumstances that must have been difficult to understand. Then, just ten days later, their world is once more blown apart as the Holy Spirit arrives, and energises them into action. Talk about operating out of their comfort zone! That Pentecost experience of the apostles led to a new form of ministry for them, and to an explosive growth in the number of followers of Christ, so it’s no surprise that Pentecost is often thought of as being the birthday of the Church. At this time of new beginnings, we rejoice with our curate, Rev Valerie Walker, as she starts a new phase of her service by being ordained Priest on 3 June. Every week in our Eucharist we pray: “send your Holy Spirit upon us … that we may be kindled with the fire of your love and renewed for the service of your Kingdom.” May that be our special prayer as we join in worship this month.

This is the first part of my multipart review of the beers of the Caribbean. Today we start with one of my favorites, Carib. While you can get Carib in the United States at least in Florida, this is not the same. The beer sold in the United States is brewed in Jacksonville, Florida and is not as strong. We will be discussing the real Carib from Champs Fleurs, Trinidad and Tobago. Since 1950, Carib has been a bona fide thirst-quencher and a symbol for everything quintessentially ‘Caribbean’ – energy and warmth that are briefly tempered by a cool sea breeze. It is a balanced, full-bodied and distinctively smooth lager that takes ‘refreshing’ to another level. The revitalizing appeal of this continental-style brew has made it an instant and permanent favorite and the first choice for any occasion. Your first impression of Carib is that it tastes very much like Heineken, which Carib Brewery also produces. The alcohol by volume is 5.1 to 5.4%. Smell – It’s a lager, so the smell will never be surprising. Carib Lager does somehow manage to be a tiny bit different. There’s something citric and tangy about the way this blend of malted barley smells. Looks – The beer is a lovely golden straw color with a brilliant white three finger head on top. There appears to be plenty of carbonation bubbles to sustain the head but it fades to a ring a little too quickly for my liking. However, for me, it is still the pick of the Caribbean beers I’ve had in terms of appearance. Taste – Your first impression of Carib is that it tastes very much like Heineken, which Carib Brewery also produces. Carib is an American Adjunct Lager and goes down so smoothly. Maybe it also tastes better when you’re sitting on the beach and the Caribbean. I think most beer aficionados would not like the beer as they tend to pan lager beers. Carib is one of the most popular beers in the Caribbean, so you can find it on most islands. When your sitting on the beach or at the beach bar Carib is a great beer.

Standout Vail Symposium volunteer Donna Albani bounced all over the country as her husband’s job took them to Delaware, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Texas. She was named a Volunteer Spotlight for the Summer/Fall 2016. However, throughout her various residences, she had always visited Vail – since the ‘80s she brought her family to ski and snowboard in the winter, then to camp, fish and hike in the summer. Come 1997, she turned Vail from her vacation destination to her permanent residence. With a background in interior design and construction, Donna has worked locally for Hightech Signs and Shapiro Development, and operated her own business “Sterling Design.” She joined the SteamMaster team in 2004 as Director of Business Development. Save for a three-year project restoring the 15,000 square foot historic Brick Hotel in Delaware, she has remained in the Valley and with SteamMaster since. Donna was first drawn to the Symposium for the sheer wealth of information and numerous speakers presented. When the opportunity to volunteer came up, she accepted and has become a friendly familiar face to Vail Symposium staff and audience. Her favorite programs are the consciousness series. “It’s a subject that has some controversy around it, but its also one of enlightenment,” said Donna. “I personally believe the understanding and transformation of our consciousness is an area many of us don’t work on enough, but could dramatically change our lives if we did.” When Donna is not volunteering at the Symposium, she enjoys getting closer to the mountains — being outside skiing and partaking in the summer offerings of fishing, camping, hiking. She also enjoys love music and experiencing the numerous talents that come through the area. Her hope is that the community continues to support the Vail Symposium by learning from and experiencing the topics firsthand from the expert speakers that visit. “Giving back to the community can be presented in many ways, and support for organizations, such as the Vail Symposium, is a simple, but extremely rewarding experience for all participating.”

I am currently spending a great long weekend in Germany, about which I will write next week, but I just had to share this: Yes, it is the November German issue of Burdastyle magazine and they have published my Plaid Peplum Bustier! I guess I don´t need to say how superhappy I am! So, more on Germany (and fabric shopping!) in a few days!

“Oh, no, we’re doomed!” This is precisely what crossed my mind when I realised how bad the SGD/LAK exchange rate at Luang Prabang International Airport is. You don’t want to make the same mistake as me. Let me show you what you need to know before arriving at Luang Prabang. 1. Visa Requirement 2. Buying SIM Cards After you got your passport stamped, before you exit the arrival gate, you will see a row of telecommunication provider booths selling SIM Card with or without data, such as Laotel, Unitel, Beeline. During our visit in October 2017, Beeline offered 3GB 7-day data sim card for USD 4. Meanwhile, Laotel offered 5GB 3-day data sim card for USD 3, and 1.5GB 7-day data for USD 3. We didn’t buy from them because we had neither USD nor local currency at that moment. It’s okay not to buy SIM card from the airport because you can get slightly cheaper SIM card at the town. We bought Laotel SIM card from its office at opposite Morning Market; we paid 20,000 kip for a SIM card with 1.5GB data and 7 days validity. 3. Changing Money Laotian Kip (LAK), Lao’s currency, is not available in Singapore, the country where I’m living in. So, I had 2 options: either bring SGD or USD to Laos and change money there. Logically, I want to change money only once to minimise exchange rate loss, thus, I bring SGD to Laos. And what I found later left me speechless. If I go to Laos again, I will bring USD instead of SGD. The official exchange rate according to Google is 1 SGD to 6,100 LAK. However, at the airport, the exchange rate is 1 SGD to 5,500 LAK. That’s a huge difference of 10%! Unwilling to lose so much, we decided to change 50 SGD first, and try to find a better rate at the town. PS: The SGD/LAK rate at the town is not better than airport’s rate. Generally, if you hold Asian currencies, you’ll get better exchange rate at the airport. For Western countries’ currencies, the rates are slightly better at the town, not much difference though. Below are the exchange rates at airport and town in October 2017. To check bank’s latest exchange rate, see BCEL’s exchange rate. The money changers in Luang Prabang accept these 13 foreign currencies: USD, CAD, EUR, GBP, CHF, AUD, JPY, KRW, CNY, VND, THB, SGD, MYR. If you don’t hold any of these currencies, or if you hate the terrible exchange rate at Luang Prabang’s money changers like me, read point #4 below. 4. Withdrawing Money We decided to withdraw money from ATM instead of changing our SGD to LAK at money changers. We used BCEL ATM because they charge only 20,000 kip. We withdrew 1,500,000 kip. After service charges and commission fees, our final exchange rate is 1 SGD to 5707 kip, which is slightly better than money changer’s rate! You can find many ATMs at the airport as well as the town. Here are the ATMs at the airport. 5. Transportation to Town The main transportation from the airport to town is a taxi. It costs 50,000 kip/3 persons. Tuk-tuk is not allowed to pick passengers from the airport. If you want to get a tuk-tuk, you need to walk out of the airport. We tried to find tuk-tuk, and we were lucky to find one as we exited the airport building. We paid 40,000 for a one-way journey to our guesthouse which is located near Morning Market. There is a small café at the airport in case you need food. There are shops for you to buy souvenirs, but personally, I’d buy souvenirs at Night Market at the town. 8. Wrapping Service For departing passengers, there’s a wrapping service before check-in. The price ranges between 15,000 and 40,000 kip. I hope this post has been helpful to you! Please note that the information on this post is written based on my visit to Luang Prabang in October 2017. Over the years, a few things may change. If you have any tips, do let me know in the comments or contact me.

It's hard to overestimate the motivating power of a well-deserved compliment. Our fifth tip is easy to implement while playing a game, but is also solid advice for just about anytime. TIP#5: Give plenty of compliments. Find any opportunity you can to compliment your kids. There’s plenty of opportunities to give positive feedback apart from a win or successful solution. Congratulate them on smart moves, if they’re impulsive- cheer them when they take their time to consider, if they’re timid and hesitant, give them kudos for a quick decision. Don’t exaggerate. Look for proper opportunities where your child deserves the recognition. Compliment concrete actions and achievements in any kind of game. Find opportunities to praise them in front of others after the game, such as family meals or parent teacher conference. See also - TIP#1 - TIP#2 - TIP#3 - TIP#4 Read the entire list

The company’s focus is to make healthy eating both affordable and easy and they do this by providing healthy food options that help you to lose weight or support a healthy lifestyle. The plans are tailored online, you can choose your menus, swap out meals and even pause the plan for whatever reason – which is a helpful feature for holidays or special occasions where you know you won’t be able to stick to the plan. Ease of Use The diettogo meal plans are really simple to use and we think that this is one of the most important factors when it comes to healthy eating and diets. If you start a complicated diet then you are least likely to stick with it and are therefore more likely to gain back any weight you lost. With diettogo you get healthy meals delivered right to your door. There is also an option to pick them up in person if you live in the Washington DC Metro area which includes Northern Virginia and Suburban Maryland, New Jersey, Baltimore or Los Angeles. There are a number of plans available to suit different dietary requirements and each meal is freshly prepared by a chef, hand-delivered to your door, ready to be heated and eaten! There’s a professional team on-hand to support you through your healthy journey and give you any advice you might need. The diet plan includes free access to a health coach who you can contact via the telephone or email any time of day. The meal plans are personalized, giving you the flexibility to switch menu plans or pause if you need a break from the diet or plan to be on vacation. Let’s start by highlighting the fact that there is quite a wide range of meals available on each plan. You certainly won’t get bored, as the menus rotate after five weeks to keep the plans varied and balanced, which is the point right? There are only four plans available on this diet, which we found to be a little limiting. We’ll talk about them in more detail but we were massively disappointed to see that there were no gluten-free, kosher or vegan meal plans. This is surprising as we felt that the company is missing out on a huge customer base by limiting the food that they prepare. We also couldn’t find anything on the website regarding allergies. What we did like was the inclusion of fruits, side dishes and condiments so you literally don’t have to worry about any of the extras when you eat these meals. These are the four plans available: This is the most popular meal plan from diettogo and has been enjoyed by dieters for around 25 years. All of the meals are calorie-controlled and nutritionally balanced with carbs, fat, cholesterol and sodium levels controlled. There are vegetarian and non-seafood options available for this particular meal plan which has been produced with restaurant-quality flavors that have been dietician approved. The type of meal that is included in this plan is Chicken Pasta Salad, Kale & Swiss Frittata and Thai Turkey Tenderloin. However, with foods such as Breakfast Pizza, Macaroni Cheese, Grilled Cheese Sandwich, Egg & Cheese Breakfast Sandwich and Waffles with Peaches & Apples in Syrup, we’re not sure if this particular diet plan can work for everyone! The diabetes-friendly menu has been specially formulated to help people lose weight, manage pre-diabetes and prevent type-2 diabetes. The meals in this diet have been created to control blood sugar naturally with sodium levels, carbs, fat, and cholesterol also kept in check. There are still carb-heavy options on this menu such as Chicken Pizza and Waffles with Blueberry Cream Cheese, but all in all this menu plan looks healthy and varied. This Keto-friendly diet is for those of you wishing to cut down on carbs and stick to a classic Atkins-style diet. The meals heavily restrict carbs and rely on meat, eggs, and cheese to help people lose weight fast. The carb-restricted plan replaces carbs with fat and the meals average around 30 net carbs per day. Meal examples include Pork Chop Breakfast, Baked Chicken with Goats Cheese and Old Fashioned Pot Roast. It is not recommended to add fruit, bread, sugar or carbs to these meals. This is the veggie version of the Balance Menu Plan which uses its protein sources from dairy, eggs, beans, and soy. There are no vegan options with this menu nor is there the option to add fish if you are a pescatarian. Meals include Blueberry Pancakes with Soy Sausage, Chocolate Zucchini Bread and Mushroom Ravioli. When looking at all the meals offered, we found the meals to be varied yet slightly carb-heavy (not including the Keto-Carb30 Plan). There is a variety of food to suit all tastes but mostly these are US recipes so will suit an American palate. One of the highlights of this particular diet plan is how easy it is to start and maintain. The diet industry is huge and the reason for this is because – unsurprisingly – most people fail. Difficult diets = failure in most cases. A depressing fact but nonetheless, true. Although the meals in this plan are calorie and portion-controlled, you won’t think of it like a diet, more of a lifestyle change. The freshly prepared meals are delivered to your door and require absolutely zero preparation. You just need to pop them in the oven and then you’re good to go. Taking the hassle from dietary meal prep appeals to most people as they simply don’t have to think about the food that they are eating. With many standard diets, it can be a pain having to plan your weekly meals in advance, shop for ingredients, do all the prep, cook the meals and make sure that they don’t exceed your recommended calorie intake. Not only that, but it’s important to eat a nutritionally-sound, balanced diet too, so using a meal plan service such as this, also takes the guesswork out of meal preparation. We feel that this type of meal plan helps dieters and those wishing to adopt a healthier lifestyle maintain healthy eating for longer. No calorie counting, no cooking, no effort. We couldn’t give this section of the review any more than zero as unfortunately, the meal plan does not include exercises. We feel that this is a shame as when healthy eating is combined with exercise, people are more likely to get faster results. There is support available for people using this service with a health coach on hand to give advice via phone or email but as for exercise plans, you are left to your own devices. When it comes to convenience you are always going to have to pay the price. Freshly prepared food isn’t cheap at best but when you couple this with healthy ingredients and a delivery service then you should expect to pay above-average prices. Each plan differs in price, depending on the amount and frequency of meals that you choose to have delivered. The meal plans are flexible, meaning you can alter your meal plans as and when needed and can even pause them if necessary. Here are the current meal plan prices (exclusive of $9.99 delivery charge): Balance Plan – from $121.99 Per Week (Cost = $12.20 Per Meal) to $198.99 Per Week (Cost = $9.48 Per Meal) Balance Diabetes Plan – from $121.99 Per Week (Cost = $12.20 Per Meal) to $179.99 Per Week (Cost = $8.57 Per Meal) Keto-Carb30 Plan – from $137.99 Per Week (Cost = $13.80 Per Meal) to $204.59 Per Week (Cost = $9.74 Per Meal) Vegetarian Plan – from $121.99 Per Week (Cost = $12.20 Per Meal) to $179.99 Per Week (Cost = $8.57 Per Meal) In comparison to dining out, these meals offer relatively good value for money. These meals are prepared by chefs using fresh and healthy ingredients. As a diet, however, we feel that these plans are expensive and can cost as much as $818.36 per month just for one person. Dieting isn’t easy. If everyone found it easy to keep track of their daily calorie intake and not gain weight then there would be no need for a diet industry. That’s why diet companies like this exist, to take the hassle away from dieting and make it easy for you, or at the very least kick start a change in eating and lifestyle. Overall we felt that diettogo makes a good choice for people who either don’t have time to plan, prep and cook their own healthy meals or don’t want to take on the task of constant calorie counting. There are a range of calorie-controlled meal plans and support is available if needed. The variety of food was quite impressive but the carb-heavy choices were a bit surprising. We don’t feel that eating pizzas and grilled cheese sandwiches (even if it’s just 1-2 days a week) promote an overall healthy lifestyle. We felt disappointed that there were no Kosher, vegan of gluten-free options too. This is something we feel they should change. Overall, this is a good diet plan for busy people who need a kick start to a new healthy routine but we feel that it isn’t suitable for those on a budget.

a bookclique pick by Laura Dickerman Irish writer Sally Rooney, only 26 years old, a former top European debater from Trinity College in Dublin, wrote her first novel, Conversations with Friends, in three months. It is a quick-moving, fascinating study of two couples, Frances and Bobbi, young women who are entwined romantically, emotionally, and intellectually; and Melissa and Nick, who are older, married, successful and established in the arts community. The story of how the couples move together and apart, how they love and hurt one another, is told primarily in the first person by Frances, a brilliant, beautiful university student and poet. Rooney’s characters communicate passionately over bottles of wine at dinner parties, brunch in coffee shops, long emails, and late-night Instant Messages. They discuss political theory, cultural relativism, white privilege, or the patriarchy, but when it comes to examining their own hearts and motivations, they are often realistically tongue-tied and confused. Frances, in particular, who embarks on an intense affair with the gorgeous, passive Nick, is a mass of contradictions: her painful insecurity about her own talent, attractiveness, and economic class is often misconstrued as coldness and ironical distance. One of Rooney’s many admirable talents is her ability to layer complex, often contradicting impressions and desires so that we see how the characters view themselves, how others view them, and how rampantly these incredibly intelligent, talkative people miscommunicate. The contrast between self-awareness and self-deception is evident in all the characters, but 21- year-old Frances’s physical and emotional fragility and the intensity of her inner life ring especially true: “I was excited that we shared an experience I found so personal, and I quickly said: people find me cold and lacking in fun. Really? he said. You always seemed charming to me. I was gripped by a sudden and overwhelming urge to say, I love you, Nick. It wasn’t a bad feeling, specifically; it was slightly amusing and crazy, like when you stand up from your chair and suddenly realize how drunk you are. But it was true. I was in love with him. I want that coat, I said.” Frances can be difficult and frustrating, but she is never difficult or frustrating to read about, and Rooney’s mastery is in simultaneously revealing the pretensions and delusions of the characters while remaining sympathetic to them. She writes engagingly, confidently, and perceptively about education, class, family, sex, friendship, and love. Conversations with Friends is smart and sexy and honest with a messy, unresolved ending that kept me thinking about the characters long after I had finished reading it.

Here’s how ads are following you around on the internet - Companies use ads to attract buyers, while websites which show these ads generate revenue from your clicks. - These companies and websites use code snippets to make sure they display relevant ads to buyers. For example, you might have been looking at a pair of jeans or shoes on a website. Soon, you start seeing those jeans and shoes on every other website. Doing so, allows these companies to keep those products in your memory, and eventually push you to buy them. But as a user this can get irritating quickly, especially if you don’t want to buy them. Why do these ads follow me? So, you might be wondering why these ads keep following you around on the internet. The answer is simple – behavioral reinforcement. Companies try to retarget users who have already seen their products on a website. If you don’t buy the product at first, these companies use a concept called “ad remarketing” to target you once again by showing those products to you again and again. The belief behind this is that if users keep seeing these products, they might just give in and buy the product. This allows the seller to generate revenue. The websites that display these ads also make money when the user clicks through their ads. So, how do these ads follow you around the internet? Websites implement a code snippet called a cookie. This allows websites to track your browsing habits and deliver you appropriate content at an appropriate time. Companies often refer to this as “personalized” or “relevant” ads – ads that are tailor-made for you, based on your browsing habits. If you don’t want ads to follow you around, you can try opening shopping websites in incognito mode for now. We’ll come back with detailed tips on how to stop these ads from snooping on you. A personal finance influencer on YouTube earned 6 figures from ads in 2019. He told us how and shared the monthly breakdown Facebook will let you reduce the number of political ads you see on Facebook and Instagram - On World Tourism Day, India’s Oil Minister asks prime tourist cities in the country to completely switch to clean fuels - President Ram Nath Kovind approves all three farm bills which have been the reason for farmers' protests across the country - Four Delhi cops face heat for misreporting drug seizure - Former union minister Jaswant Singh passes away at 82 - Odisha man arrested for manufacturing fake Covid-19 vaccine

Domino effect of a downgrade will be much worse than many expect A chain of consequences has not yet been priced in by optimists, who fail to see how SOEs and other institutions will buckle The deteriorating creditworthiness of the sovereign has already done damage to the economy. And the further the country slips down the rating scale, the more dire the degree. Just eight years ago SA had a solid investment credit rating of BBB+. Today, however, two of the three main ratings agencies — S&P Global Ratings and Fitch — rate the sovereign’s local currency debt at subinvestment, or speculative, grade (BB+). Moody’s Investors Service is likely to make this a humbling hat-trick in 2020. Yet few in financial market circles seem to be fretting about this prospect, thinking instead that the coming downgrade is already priced in by the markets. And it appears so. SA’s implied five-year credit default risk spread is higher than Brazil’s for example, which is a striking verdict because SA, for now at least, still has one remaining investment rating while Brazil, by contrast, is already BB- rated. Consequently, when Moody’s wields its axe the subsequent sell-off in the domestic bond market is expected to be short-lived. Of course, for this scenario to unfold — the subsequent removal of SA from the FTSE world government bond index (WGBI) and forced sell-off by foreign institutional investors aside — there would need to be some counteracting inflows. Comforting here is the fact that yield-seeking emerging-market investors (those with less conservative mandates) have historically supported countries that have been excluded from the WGBI. After initial currency weakness and a resultant spike in bond yields caused by forced sellers exiting, it’s therefore possible that SA too could benefit from some new inflows from admittedly more volatile investors. Such renewed foreign interest might even prompt local fixed-income managers to jump in as well, thereby further easing the pressure on yields. So, all well and good then? D-Day (or M-Day) is priced in. And as such, its impact on the bond market will be temporary. Not so fast. As reassuring as this benign market outlook might be, it’s no reason to ignore the economic effects of the sovereign’s deteriorating credit quality. These effects have already been harmful and there’s more pain to come the deeper the country sinks into the subinvestment abyss. As the government’s credit rating has fallen over the years, so its borrowing costs have risen. This, coinciding with gaping budget deficits due to SA’s economic woes, amplified by state-owned enterprise (SOE) bailouts, has meant only one thing: a gigantic R110bn jump in the interest bill. From the time of the first rating downgrade in 2012 the figure stands at nearly double that: R200bn today. Accommodating this increase would have left the government facing even larger budget deficits than the 4.5%-5% of GDP in recent years. Growth in noninterest expenditure therefore had to be curtailed, along with further increasing the tax burden on consumers and companies — both policies that knocked the economy. But it gets worse. The credit ratings of critically important SOEs are tied to the sovereign’s (through partial debt guarantees and implicit support). And so their creditworthiness too has suffered. For the many overindebted and cash-strapped ones, escalating borrowing costs only made matters more dire, again at the expense of the economy. In several cases vital infrastructure investment was jeopardised, while at the same time growth-inhibiting tariffs were hiked. Talk about a double-punch. “Tied to the ratings hip,” even development finance institutions in better financial standing had to pay up to ensure continued access to loan finance, albeit not as much as some infrastructure SOEs. Then there are the banks. Their direct loan exposure to the sovereign, SOEs and other public entities — as well as their indirect exposure through the government bonds they own (which is a regulatory requirement) — also made them victim to the state’s falling credit rating. Due to no fault of their own, banks’ funding costs therefore also started to creep up. Compounding this effect was the introduction in 2013 of new global Basel III regulations compelling banks to do three things: increasingly shift their sources of funding from less expensive short-term ones to more stable — yet costlier — longer-term ones; further increase their holdings of liquid assets, such as the government bonds they already own, which in recent years had become riskier; and raise their capital buffers against the risky assets on their balance sheets (riskier assets carry higher probability of default, forcing banks to hold even more capital, thereby restricting credit availability). The consequences have been predictable. In confronting these challenges in an environment of persistently low economic growth, banks have had to adopt more conservative lending policies. And, where credit has been extended to public and private sector debtors, they have had to do so at higher interest rates. In short, many borrowers have had to become accustomed to tighter financial conditions, even though the repo rate has fallen somewhat. This interconnected web of linkages clearly leaves the country extremely vulnerable. In fact, even if Moody’s decides not to proceed but both S&P and Fitch act on their respective negative outlooks, the sovereign’s average credit rating across the three agencies will fall even deeper into subinvestment terrain. This will unleash a shock that will domino-effect itself through the detailed transmission channels, with consequences most dire. The thing is that default probabilities jump exponentially the worse the credit rating of the sovereign — and every entity linked to it — gets. As such, the additional premium creditors will want to compensate for the ever-riskier debtors they lend to will leap exponentially too. A broadly based and particularly sharp increase in borrowing costs, and the even harsher economic effects it will unleash, may well be the trigger that pushes an already limping economy over the edge. SA should never have been on its current path of slowing economic growth, deteriorating fiscal ratios and falling credit ratings. But it is. That’s not to say it’s too late for forceful and corrective action to turn the ratings tide — and, by implication, the economy’s fortunes — around. It’s not too late. But time is short, and the consequences of inaction too ghastly to contemplate. Over to you, finance minister Tito Mboweni. We keenly await your budget speech on Wednesday. • Le Roux is chief economist and Ilkova an investment strategist at Rand Merchant Bank.

Favorite Features Remain: - Exterior helmet holder, with quick open for removal - Large top-loading main compartment overtakes the entire space of all other compartments if you want a duffel-style pack for optimal space. - Vertical Mid-Belly™ zipper for easy access to items at the bottom of the pack - Long transition rack strap to hang the pack - Light-color interior for easy viewing of what is inside and to eliminate the "Black Hole" effect.

This item is one product, which comprises less than 2% of our total products that are not made in the USA. PROD ID: TP8 We Also Recommend Great backpack, super roomy, very well made! Awesome experience. Got this for my husbands Birthday. He loves it. So roomy and sturdy. Perfect. Service was fast and loved the sale price! It gets more rugged with each iteration. One thing that hasn't changed is, it never seems to stand upright. Well, maybe with careful packing it will, but it likes to roll over, like a dog who wants its belly scratched. There is also a legacy strap on there to attach to a bike rack to hang it. Who does that these days? Rack space seems to get more precious each year. However, I do use it at one particular beach and attach my pack to a fence, off the sand. It then, won't roll over. Despite these things, I'm glad I have it. The price was very comfortable. Transition bag is well thought out and bombproof. Packs everything and then some. Not quite as many small internal pockets as some other bags but still able to organize everything just fine. This thing can be dragged on pavement and still not fall apart. - Emilio, lose the picture of this bag with that old bike pump and stick one of those $300 lightweight ones on it : ) A good day is when Emilio chimes in on Slowtwitch and offers a an overnight sale code for the devoted fans..hint..hint Have not used, yet. Will not use until May. But it looks sturdy and easy to use with lots of compartments. I received as a Xmas gift.

Father's Day is June 16th, which means you've got less than two weeks to get something fun for the guy who likely introduced you to the game. Need some suggestions? We've got 'em, for a range of budgets from modest to massively over-the-top: I've sung the praises of Kentwool's golf socks before, and I still swear by them. But last year I bought a pair of Surino hybrid alpaca fleece/merino wool golf socks and have found them to be every bit as good. My favorite thing about them is that they're snug, which prevents my golf shoes from rubbing them off my heels. They're pricy at $20 a pair, but after dozens of wearings and washings, they don't seem to have lost anything from the day I bought them last August. Dad deserves a pair or two. Want to get Dad something stylish and useful without breaking the bank? Asher makes some high-quality, sharp-looking direct-to-consumer golf gloves in the more classic white and black, as well as some more out-there colors like Olive, Lime Green, "Indigo Ink" and "Ocean Breeze" for between $12 and $24. If Dad's an NBA fan, you can even put him into something in Boston Celtics-, Golden State Warriors- or Houston Rockets-themed ($28) With hot weather on tap for much of the country in the coming months, Devant Sport Towels' Arctic Blast cool-down towels should be in every golfer's bag, not just your dad's. At $14.95 apiece, they're a lightweight but potentially crucial summer investment. Just wet the towel down, wring it out a bit and wipe your face, neck and body with it to feel up to 30 degrees cooler than the ambient temperature. If you like to give Dad funny or personalized trinkets or knickknacks, I've found that Etsy is a good place to start. This "Best Dad By Par" t-shirt ($25) is punny and these hand-hammered custom ball marks are a nice touch at under $16 apiece. Is Dad an Arnold Palmer fan? Then he probably knows the King's spirit of choice was always Ketel One vodka. The brand has come out with a limited-edition "Arnie's Army" bottle ($25), which will look nice on the bar even after its contents have been enjoyed. It's an obvious choice, but a dozen nice golf balls are never a bad gift idea. I've enjoyed using the new Pro V1s and the new TaylorMade TP5x in roughly equal measure so far this year. For something a little non-traditional, Titleist is making yellow ProV1s ($48) for the first time this year and TaylorMade recently came out with their new Pix-patterned pellets ($48). If you want to go in a different direction, Mizuno entered the American golf ball market this year with its new RB Tour and RB Tour X models ($44). Avid golfers are probably not hard up for hats, but if you want to get Dad something unique Imperial Headwear's easy-to-use Design Your Own website function ($30-$50, depending on style) is great for giving him his own personalized lid. Order two and you guys can match when next you tee it up together. I wrote about their unusual shirt material - fiber made from recycled plastic bottles - some months ago, and I've grown really fond of my Charleston Green Corwin golf shirt ($39.99). It stretches, isn't too tight and handles moisture well. It feels like a shirt twice its price. It may be derived from plastic, but Dad should be genuinely impressed if you send him one. Is Dad into golf course architecture? Over the last few years, architect Tom Doak has updated, expanded and re-released his Confidential Guide To Golf Courses in five volumes, each available for between $60 and $75, or $300 for the entire set. Doak collaborated on some 2,500-course reviews with fellow students of golf Ran Morrissett, Masa Nishijima and Darius Oliver. If you've seen our Editor-at-Large Matt Ginella on TV, chances are he's wearing clothes made by Linksoul, a California based golf apparel brand developed by industry veteran John Ashworth. We're grateful to be partners with Linksoul in large part because they make clothing we'd gladly pay to wear. I own a handful of their polos ($48-$80) and a couple pairs of their shorts ($52-$86) and enjoy gaming them. If you watch televised golf, it seems that every player now has a personalized yardage book/scorecard holder in their back pocket. Dad would love one of these, too. If he's a baseball fan, he might like this one from Sandlot Goods ($68). Even high-end department store Neiman Marcus sells a monogrammable one ($90). Coming in just inside the cutoff at $99 is a year of GOLFPASS. If dad is a golf nut, it's an excellent way to help him immerse himself in the game you both love. with travel credits, monthly GolfNow Hot Deals tee time credits, access to the entire Revolution Golf catalogue of instructional videos and preferred pricing on the products RG promotes, it's something that can pay for itself pretty surprisingly quickly if used by a true golf lover. Vineyard Vines has turned to the voice of the game to turn golfers onto its fashions. The Jim Nantz Collection ($100 to $250) sports all sorts of styles for golfers - half-zips, polos, sweaters and a performance vest. The more I travel, the more pairs of ECCO golf shoes I see everywhere. My dad swears by them and I've owned several pairs myself. I really appreciate not just the quality (yak leather is the secret, evidently) but the fit. ECCOs tend to be a bit more snug in the heel and a bit roomier toward the toes. As someone with a wide foot who has trouble finding golf shoes that fit, I really appreciate that. The new Biom Hybrid 3 ($200, $220 with the BOA lacing system) is a wonderful flagship shoe. If you think Dad might want something a little lighter-weight and with more color, though, put him in a pair of the new S-Lite model ($160), whose outsole is two-thirds lighter than any other ECCO has made previously. Of course, the best way to give Dad something while also benefiting yourself is to plan a golf trip together. Our growing partnership with Troon Golf Vacations has served up dozens of possibilities for a trip with your original golf buddy. If you're into perfect weather and PGA Tour stops, this package to Silverado Resort & Spa in Napa, California might be ideal, especially if the rest of the family is interested in coming along. Or if one of our hosted Golf Advisor Getaways appeals, we can take care of everything for Dad (and you). If Dad is in need of new sticks, instead of outright buying him something that might not fit, send him somewhere for a fitting to get him on the right track. My fellow writers and I have had good experiences at both Club Champion ($80-$350, depending on type of fitting) and True Spec Golf ($125-$450). Chances are one of these companies has a location reasonably nearby. Launched by a "Kickstarter" campaign in January 2017, Chippo - a cross between golf and cornhole - has quickly caught on in popularity. It is packaged properly so you play at the beach, a picnic, a tailgate or even indoors. It comes with two boards, two hitting mats (so you don't scuff up carpet or grass) and multiple soft golf balls that won't break anything when a shot goes astray ($189). You can play casually, trying to chip shots into the three holes, or the website offers rules for competitive games. If Dad's luggage is falling apart (or has been beaten up by one too many trips through airport baggage handlers' clutches) OGIO makes several durable, attractive carry-on and checked pieces. The Overhead Travel Bag ($200) is smartly designed to fit you-know-where, with plenty of compartments for electronics (including a 15-inch laptop) as well as clothes for a long-weekend excursion. Way over $100 Has Dad caught the golf statistics bug? If so, and he deserves a splurge, get him the Flightscope mevo personal launch monitor. At $500, it's a steal compared to the full-capability ones (TrackMan, etc.) that cost upwards of $25,000, and it delivers accurate-enough numbers to help him dial in all his shots. If you've got 2020 in mind for a bucket-list golf trip, you could reserve guaranteed 2020 Ryder Cup tickets through Primesport, which offers packages ranging from $1,675 per person to more than $5,425 per person. Or if you've got something nearer-term in mind, you could splurge on Kalos' British Isles and The Open Golf Cruise, slated for July 16-25 and including a stopover to take in The Open Championship at Royal Portrush. This highest-end experience starts at almost $12,000 per person. Dad's worth it! (Click here for the 2018 version of this guide.)

Named for the Greek word “cyanos”, meaning blue, kyanite is one of the most attractive intense blue gems found in nature. Evocative of top gem quality blue sapphires, this unusual collector’s gem is not widely known because it’s color is frequently inconsistent within the crystal and it is quite challenging for gem cutters because it is strongly anisotropic, meaning it has a different hardness along each of its two crystal axes. The hardness of kyanite is 4 - 4.5 (Mohs scale) along the long axis and 6 - 7 along the short axis. This beautiful blue gem is perfect for pendants and earrings; however, great care should be taken when worn in a ring due to its variable hardness. Although not designated as a birthstone or anniversary stone, kyanite in its rarest form - consistent cobalt blue and free of eye visible inclusions - is highly desirable. Gem quality kyanite is mined primarily in Brazil.

Please Do Not Say No Worries Pet Peeve #3 “No Worries” No worries is an expression seen in Australian, British and New Zealand English meaning "do not worry about that", "that's all right", or "sure thing". It is similar to the American English no problem. The phrase is widely used in Australian speech and represents a feeling of friendliness, good humour, optimism and "mateship" in Australian culture. The phrase has been referred to as the national motto of Australia. It doesn’t feel friendly to me at all. I absolutely hate it. Every time someone says it, I want to hit something. I believe it insinuates that I am a worrier when I AM NOT. And it feels condescending, especially coming from the executive secretary I had to work under for better than a year before she blessedly moved on. Every time she said, “no worries,” I felt a patronizing sense of inferiority. Somehow I suddenly did not measure up. I am not alone. Others have experienced the same annoyance at the phrase. John Blumenthal on Huffington Post Blog says: “No worries.” We used to say good old American expressions like “no problem,” or “no sweat”, but now we’ve adopted this dumb Aussie phrase probably because most Americans think Australia is in Europe. So saying “no worries” instead of “no sweat” makes them feel sophisticated, smart and worldly. The problem is, there is something distinctly worrisome about people who like to think they’re smart, sophisticated and worldly because they use an Australian phrase that they think originated in Europe." Maddie Crum in Huffington Post also has an opinion in her article “22 Common Phrases We All Secretly Hate,” says: “No Worries. This is fine when said to someone who had sincere worries, but is often used passive aggressively, as in: ‘I’m going to be a little late.’ ‘No worries!’ Wait, should I have been worried?” On the website, Big List of Small Annoyances, the unidentified author sums it up beautifully: “There are a multitude of definitions on Urban Dictionary for one of the most annoying two-word combinations in existence and they all mean virtually the same thing. But, the one closest to how I feel about the phrase “no worries”…. Why are you assuming I’m worried?” Yes! I say. One of my favorite comment on the “Annoyances” site is from David July 9, 2014 at 11:54 am: “Oh wow! I am relieved to know that I am not alone in being filled with rage when these pretentious psuedo intellectuals suffering from an identity crisis slap that little nugget my way. I like to say oh, you’re from Australia and watch them stumble to respond.” Right on, David.

Geocaching & Orienteering Head out to treasure hunt with geocaching or check out an orienteering course and discover parts of the Kentucky State Parks that you normally might not see. Modern aged treasure hunting is perhaps the best way to describe a geocaching adventure. With caches all over the state, and world for that matter, any one can participate in geocaching. All you need is a GPS unit and a desire for exploration. To find caches located throughout Kentucky, visit www.geocaching.com. Looking for something a little off the beaten path? Then orienteering is for you. Orienteering is a sport in wilderness navigation where a person uses a map and compass to complete a course. It uses many of the same skills found in geocaching and adventure racing. Kentucky is leading the nation in the development of new orienteering activities and trails throughout the Commonwealth. In the first of its kind program and in cooperation with Orienteering USA, Orienteering Louisville and Orienteering Cincinnati, in 2012 the Kentucky State Parks Orienteering Trail will have an orienteering course at: Barren River Lake State Resort Park, Big Bone Lick State Historic Site, E.P. "Tom" Sawyer State Park, Rough River Dam State Resort Park and Taylorsville Lake State Park.

How do I register for classes at the LAI? In order to register for a class at LAI, you do not sign up on Campus Management. Instead, you will attend the first class and if you decide to take it in the future you approach the respective teacher and let him_her know that you want to attend the class permanently. You may have to give your teacher your (Zedat) email address, so that they can add you to our e-learning system (Blackboard). That way, you will be able to access the course materials. If you are interested in taking classes outside our institute (such as specific Erasmus classes) you may have to register through Campus Management.
