 farmers were convinced and they agreed to abstain from using this method.
Example number 6 of 8: The principal held a meeting of the teachers and asked them to abstain from giving any physical punishment to the students. He suggested a joint meeting with the school counselor to resolve any complaints about the students.
Example number 7 of 8: The tourists taking a boat ride along the lake would feed snacks to the birds flying over the lake. These food articles are harmful for the birds. Hence, the local corporation put up boards asking the tourists to abstain from feeding the birds.
Example number 8 of 8: The members of a social media group were having heated arguments over their political preferences. Finally, the group admin intervened and requested the members to abstain from posting politically biased messages.
Today we learnt the word abstain which means restrain oneself from doing or enjoying something; to choose not to vote; stay away from some work.

We are waiting.Here's a new version of Australian band Dog Trumpet's 'Speed of Light' video, requested by their North American record label. My new brief was: 'All timelapse, abstract stuff... and can we have it in two weeks please'. That got me moving. There's a lot of new timelapse mixed in with the original shots, along with fast and slow motion sequences, all filmed in Sydney, Australia. And I met the deadline. See the first 'Speed of Light' here - http://vimeo.com/chriszko/speed-of-light. The original timelapse shots were workshopped in Armand Dijcks great online course - http://armanddijcks.com/fstm.
Dog Trumpet will play at the South By Southwest festival in Austin, Texas in March 2014. 'Speed of Light' is from their double album 'Medicated Spirits'.Floor standing speaker recommendations to pair with tube amp

don't suppose anyone has any good recommendations for speakers I can keep an eye out for that can be bought for sub £2k? The dream is a pair of Tannoy Arden's but unless a few grand falls from the sky I don't think I'm justifying that any time soon

Would like to pair with my primaluna dialogue premium hp power amp - I'm not too knowledgeable about old speakers (or many new floor standing speakers for that matter) so not sure what I should be going forVery discreet when defending themselves in court, but when it comes to the rank and file, not so much. 

I thought when the Watchtower called Russia the king of the north, knowing full well it would rub Putin the wrong way, it wasn't very discreet or wise. Did they think Putin would back down on persecuting JW's because the Watchtower slapped that label on them?  I don't think so. By doing it they seemed to be asking for more, not less persecution. But, of course, the GB would never feel the slightest  persecution from the safety of their compound in Warwick NY 

Had the Watchtower approached the Russian law banning their religion with half the discretion Jackson used in his deposition, there may have been far fewer arrests and convictions. 

So, here good old presumptuous Jackson is, answering the question  by not  answering the question with a yes or no. He just says that would be presumptuous. Had I been the attorney I would have directed Jackson  to answer with a simple yes or no.Write a sentence not in English.

Justin MalliaSecurity Council: Statement by Ambassador Wittig on UN Peacekeeping
(Security Council: Statement as delivered by Ambassador Wittig in an Open Debate on UN Peacekeeping)
"Mr. President,
We welcome Pakistan's initiative for an Open Debate on UN peacekeeping and its multidimensional nature. International peace and security lie at the heart of the United Nations, and UN Peacekeeping surely is the most visible instrument of the United Nations in this regard. It thus deserves our constant attention.
At the outset, I would like to reiterate Germany’s longstanding support for UN Peacekeeping. It is our goal to strengthen the UN system and the missions on the ground. It is in.
Mr. President,
My country aligns itself with the statement by the European Union.
I would like to take this opportunity to introduce you to an initiative Germany has, together with a number of partners, developed during the last years. If implemented, this initiative could make a substantial contribution towards a truly multidimensional UN Peacekeeping. I am talking about the creation of a “Group of Friends for UN Police”.
Sustainable peace can only be achieved through justice and security and by the re-establishment of the rule of law. The police segment of UN Peacekeeping has proven crucial in assisting host countries in developing critical peacebuilding priorities and strategies. It is also key in national programmes of security sector reform and disarmament, demobilization and reintegration.
The UN Police is mastering its wide-ranging and complex tasks with commitment and professionalism. It needs our support and appreciation.
Our initiative to establish a Group of Friends aims at fostering political support for the UN Police. We want to strengthen the capacity and the impact of UN Police. The Group should include all main stakeholders involved in UN police missions and facilitate the informal exchange of ideas. It shall create a sense of common purpose and be a place to launch concrete initiatives. It shall provide a bridge between UN Headquarters in New York and capitals.
The idea of creating a Group of Friends of UN Police was introduced at the October 2012 UN Police Conference in Berlin and has since evolved further. Such a group would be complementary to the existing Strategic Police Advisory Group in order to advance sustained political engagement in support of UN Police.
We would expect the Group of Friends to consist of dedicated Member States who are actively engaged and interested in developing UN police peacekeeping as well as partners from the UN Secretariat. Other key partners and supporters could be invited to join. The constitutive meeting of the Group of Friends is planned for spring this year.
Mr. President,
Together, we can further strengthen the role of UN Peacekeeping, its capacities and its impact on the ground. This is a joint endeavour and the support of all Member states is key.
I thank you."
