I am sending the adverts out through email. I will send each placement in a separate email, together with information from the GWCT 2014 Annual Review on work that students have been involved with in the past in each department. Please let me know if you receive 8 emails from me – including this one and also let me know if you do not. Please inform me if I am sending this to the wrong person. I will endeavour to help you advertise these placements but I do not have the time or resources to fill in forms for each of these placements at each of the Universities we contact.
For most of the placements interviewing will start in mid-January and will continue until we have filled the positions. This means that the effective closing dates for most of the placements is the first week in January 2016, although we may accept later applications if we have not filled the placement position already.
We have had Southampton students undertaking these placements in the past, including Sophie Watts who is now in the 3rd year after spending last year with GWCT. If you are interested, please let me know. You will need to contact staff about references asap as we will be taking Christmas holidays too. | 243 |
Curtains
Winter sun and forced-air heat sucked all the moisture from the room. Bennie watched innumerable dust particles ricocheting above her mechanized bed. They seemed chaotic, confused. An eon ago Bennie would have kicked up a fit about all this dust, commanded her maid to vacuum the curtains, polish all the trophies and photos, wash the floors with Murphy’s soap and clean every shelf and fan and mirror in the place. She would’ve made herself a dirty gin martini and stomped after the girl in Louis Vuitton stilettos, waiting for her to miss a spot. But that was then, the long ago “then” of Johnny Carson and tube television and dodo birds and extinction.
“Are you ready, Mrs. Malone?” A chubby nurse waddled into the room with Dr. Valverde. Bennie wanted to scold her, to yell about the divorce, explain how she was Ms. Malone now and her married name had been Farber and didn’t the nurse know she should always address a lady as Miss unless she was introduced with a husband? But the muscles in Bennie’s face were twisted, alternately atrophied and turned to mush. Every time she spoke, it came out as an unintelligible whine and a stream of drool leaked down her chin. So she accepted the nurse’s ignorance in silence.
“We’ll get started in just another minute, Bennie,” Dr. Valverde smiled, his silver hair reflecting the dusty sun in tiny beams. Dr. Valverde had been Bennie’s doctor for fifteen years – she saw him the first time when she twisted her ankle in Telluride. He had told her he had been a fan since The Denny Oliver Hour and even remembered when she got runner-up in the Miss America pageant. She wished he would look away.
“What a great photo,” the nurse referred to Bennie’s bedside table. It was her at eighteen, tall in a feather headpiece and red sequined leotard standing between Denny Oliver and her first agent, Max Wells. Bennie was known for her legs, and they were at their prime in the photo: half a mile long, perfectly toned, not a dimple or a crease to be seen. Bennie no longer knew exactly what her legs looked like because she made them remove all the mirrors from her room, and she could no longer lift her head to look down. Her arms were buckled and bowed, wrists twisted as if trying to escape. From the hot, clawing pain spanning her hip to toes, she imagined her legs looked even worse.
“Alright, Bennie, count back from a hundred,” Dr. Valverde stroked her hair. She closed her eyes and did not count, but let the twilight sleep overtake her. For a second she slipped into the memory of being in the backseat of a convertible during the Santa Ana, Max Wells driving and her ex-husband in the passenger seat, laughing at the way her hair got sucked up into the dense, dry wind. They were so far into the desert that the smog had disappeared and she could see the Milky Way clinging to the edge of the sky. | 693 |
Napier, Art Deco, Hastings, Cape Kidnappers, Mahia Peninsula, Ocean Beach, Te Mata Peak, Vineyards.
Hawkes Bay (originally known as Hawke Bay) occupies the east coast of the North Island just north of the Wairarapa Region. The eastern border is a 100 kilometre semi-circular bay which extends from Cape Kidnappers north to Mahia Peninsula . The region includes a hilly interior which blends into the Kaweka and Ruahine Ranges. There are two main areas of plains. In the north are the flood plains around the Wairoa River and the south is home to the Heretaunga Plains around Hastings.
Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateaturipukakapikimaungahoronukupokaiwhenuakitanatahu is an unremarkable hill in southern Hawke's Bay, not far from Waipukurau. It has the honour of being New Zealand's longest place name and is recognised as the second longest in the world according to the Guinness Book of Records.
Due to a major earthquake in 1931, Napier was rebuilt in the art deco style of that period. The result is a city that is remarkably different to other cities of New Zealand and looks more akin to Miami Beach in Florida. Napier celebrates its Art Deco lifestyle annually in Art Deco Weekend.
Napier has one of New Zealand's biggest ports which exports wool, and fruit such as apples, pears and stone fruits. There are also many fine vineyards producing world-class wines. Most vineyards offer free tasting and high quality dining. Each year there is a Wine and Food Festival that shows off the local produce. | 359 |
Sonntag
Sonntag is a nomadic project initiative founded by the artists, Adrian Schiesser and April Gertler in 2012 and takes place in different private Berlin apartments. Sonntag is a platform for Berlin-based artists to develop their artistic activities; a place to present works of art to a wider public in connection with the German tradition of getting together over coffee and cake on a Sunday afternoon.
Instead of relying solely on the exhibition of works of art as the sole format, Sonntag relies on the artist's favorite cake as a special starting point for discussions between artist and guests. The flavors of the cake are transmitters of memories and experiences of the artist, a taste of home in a foreign land, a taste associated with an important event in the life of the artist and often flavors that relate to the works. In keeping with the Proust phenomenon, flavors and smells as trigger stimuli can unleash involuntary memories and excitement, creating a subconscious connection between the guests and the artist, thus providing a basis for communication.
Private apartments in Berlin as a venue for Sonntag, complete the concept, as an ideal sphere for exchange. With each version of Sonntag, the artists respond to the interior design of the premises in an innovative and surprising way, which at times leads to a mixture of newly installed works of art in direct relationship to the objects in the apartment. Sonntag is thus continuing the tradition of Berlin, known as the city for its dynamic, free art scene with exhibition spaces in converted spaces, the capital of temporary use.
Sonntag in book format, highlights the work of 44 previous Sonntag artists. New work made especially for the book by each artist, in addition to their favorite cake recipe, will be the foundation of the Sonntag book. The book will highlight a wide variety of nuances of the project, including closely examining Sonntag as a social sculpture which harnesses not only dialogue about art making in a private space, but takes a look at how food and the architecture of a home can contribute to a greater experience, simultaneously by the exhibiting artist and the viewer.

POPLAR BLUFF, MO (KFVS) - A class ring is back where it belongs after more than 50 years.
The long lost ring was found thanks to two Poplar Bluff city workers who went the extra mile to bring a smile to one man's face.
"It still fits. It's a little loose but it fits," Bobby Rice said.
Rice said he won't be taking off the ring any time soon.
"The year is down here…1961," Rice said as he admired the ring.
Fifty-four years ago, Rice handed off his 10 karat gold class ring.
"I was home from basic training, getting ready to go to Germany. I gave it to a young girl and I left for Germany. I was in Germany for three years and that's the last time I seen the ring and the girl," Rice said.
The Air Force veteran didn't think he'd see it again.
"We could tell it was a class ring when we picked it up," Poplar Bluff utility worker Wade Stoner said.
Stoner and his fellow-worker Marlin Barker were cleaning a sewer line on the east side of town when they found it.
"It was not a pretty ring," Stoner said.
Now, the ring is shiny and smooth, but when they found it, it was packed with years of grit and grime. Still, the men had to make sure Mr. Rice's ring was returned.
"Found the year on top of the ring. Saw it was a Poplar Bluff ring. I called my wife and had her contact the school to look in the yearbook and it was only two possibilities of who it could be," Stoner said.
Steve Whitworth, at Whitworth's Gift Chest Jewelers, said restoring it was quite a feat.
"It had years of corrosion on it," Whitworth said.
In the end, it cleaned up well.
"Whenever it's gold, it can almost always be restored. And it was in good, sound shape underneath all the stuff," Whitworth said.
"When I looked at the ring, I remembered the days I was playing football," Rice said.
Memories from long ago etched in precious metal, made new again by two guys who really didn't have to do what they did.
"People care about each other. Those guys could have come in and sold the gold for scrap. But they wanted to find who the owner was," Whitworth said.
This is the second class ring Stoner and Barker have found and returned. The other one was found about five years ago and dated 1977.

A smart courteous fellow in a bespoke suit has no issue dealing with a perpetual cluster of trouble makers: for quite a long time, this was the almost elite region of James Bond. As new miscreants and another period Bond have constrained 007 into wrecking his suit every film in record time, it leaves space for honorable men spies who treat their Savile Row clothing with a smidgen more respect.
Enter the Kingsman . This element film arrangement depends on comics made by Dave Gibbons and Mark Millar and stars an extraordinary type of British mystery administration agents. Classy as they will be, they clearly need watches to coordinate their customized outfits.
Initially, it was British brand Bremont who had the distinctions in 2015’s Kingsman: The Secret Service , remembering an appearance for the film by brand prime supporter Nick English. In 2017’s Kingsman: The Golden Circle, TAG Heuer assumed control over the ticking roles.
For the upcoming The King’s Man, due out in February 2021 subsequent to being deferred a few times, the position is assumed control over Jaeger-LeCoultre, who made a phenomenal watch for the occasion.
Diving into its own image history, Jaeger-LeCoultre chose to change a pocket watch from its rich past into a wristwatch. This couldn’t have been more proper as the 1907 pocket watch being referred to is nicknamed couteau, knife in French, as a kind of perspective to its razor-thin edge.
This scarcely there style is made conceivable by a ultra-thin development planned by Edmond Jaeger. Prior to uniting with Jacques-David LeCoultre, he grew many developments for Cartier, among others, to make couteau pocket watches. One could say that this was one of his specific regions of expertise.
Fast forward to the current day and the acknowledgment that changing a pocket watch into a wristwatch is certainly not a simple thing to do. Be that as it may, the Master Ultra Thin Kingsman Knife Watch is a benchmark for it.
Jaeger-LeCoultre for sure prevailing with regards to interpreting the razor-thin profile of the pocket watch to a wristwatch. The unobtrusively ventured case permits the watch to lay on the wrist not at all like some other (ultra-thin) watch.
While at a stature of 4.25 mm it is in no way, shape or form thick, it is likewise not the slimmest watch on the square – it isn’t even Jaeger-LeCoultre’s slimmest watch (that honor has a place with 2015’s Master Ultra Thin Squelette, coming in at 3.6 mm). Brands like Piaget and Bulgari may consistently deliver thinner watches than Jaeger-LeCoultre, however the Master Ultra Thin Kingsman Knife Watch looks slimmer on the wrist without really being it.
It is the knife-edge plan that accomplishes this.
Jaeger-LeCoultre knew very well the thing it was doing when its originators dealt with this watch. They cunningly kept the crown at 12 o’clock, including the gold ring to which one would normally snare a chain in the event that it were a pocket watch. By letting that fascinating component, which by the way additionally ensures the crown, cut into the tie, they made an eccentric detail that makes the watch intriguing without it being alienating.
Fortunately, they chose to refresh the dial’s configuration, giving it a neat and tidy look with blued sword molded hands. This sends out the perfect vibe as the watch looks contemporary yet dependent on old qualities, totally in accordance with the style of The Kingsman universe and that of numerous other present day, knowing gentlemen.
The Master Ultra Thin Kingsman Knife Watch additionally denotes the arrival of Caliber 849. This physically wound development and its immediate archetype, Caliber 839, was in Jaeger-LeCoultre’s list for around forty years. At a stature of just 1.85 mm, it turned out to be principally known for controlling Jaeger-LeCoultre’s Master Ultra Thin collection.
The case development of the Master Ultra Thin Kingsman Knife Watch is anyway very extraordinary as it is 1.65 mm thinner than the 5.9 mm thickness of the development utilized in the current Master Ultra Thin line, Caliber 896.
Caliber 849 got a standing for being exact and solid, very helpful given a Kingsman’s extremely dynamic way of life, and something we can lamentably not say of each ultra-thin development. It is a delight to see it return in the Master Ultra Thin Kingsman Knife Watch – regardless of whether the creators kept it from inquisitive eyes by giving this watch a shut case back.
At a cost of $29,800, claiming the Master Ultra Thin Kingsman Knife Watch requires a bespoke suit with especially profound pockets. Indeed, even given its remarkable development, connection to what in particular makes certain to be a famous and engaging film and restricted creation, that is a great deal of money.
I am somewhat disillusioned that the rear of the case is engraved with “One of 100.” With an appropriate restricted release at this value point, I would expect a brand like Jaeger-LeCoultre to go to the difficulty of really numbering each watch individually.
That aside, the remainder of the watch is right on target with huge loads of character. It demonstrates that while Jaeger-LeCoultre probably won’t have the thinnest watch, or development, this brand has a standout amongst other looking.

The top of my list would be Governor Kim Reynolds’ signing the fetal heartbeat abortion ban. This is the crowning pro-life achievement in Iowa.
I’m not convinced that former Governor Terry Branstad would have signed that bill primarily because of the expected legal challenge. I could be wrong, but we’ll never know. He did sign the late-term abortion ban last session, and this new law moves the ball forward toward, prayerfully, seeing Roe v. Wade overturned.
2. Tax Reform in Iowa.
I am happy the Iowa Legislature ended the session passing a tax reform bill. It’s a good first step. I agree with John Hendrickson who wrote about it last week. It deserves two cheers, not three. Perhaps a polite golf clap. Businesses will see a significant reduction right away and that is good, but middle-class families won’t until five years down the road and only if state revenue grows by 4 percent each year until 2022. The trigger is too high.
The Iowa House passed HJR 2009, a proposed constitutional amendment affirming Iowans’ right to keep and bear arms by a 54 to 42 vote on March 19, the Iowa Senate passed the resolution 34 to 15 on March 21. It has to pass in the Iowa House and Iowa Senate during the 88th Iowa General Assembly before voters can decide.
4. Rule of law prevails with sanctuary city ban.
Governor Reynolds signed SF 481 without comment. SF 481 requires that law enforcement agencies comply with immigration detainer requests from ICE if they have an illegal immigrant in custody. The new law also requires illegal immigrants with a detainer request currently in a state correctional facility serve out the end of their sentence in a federal correctional facility for a period of no more than seven days.
Counties and cities that violate the law could have state funds withheld for a year.
The bill was demonized, but, frankly, it does not empower law enforcement to enforce immigration law. It just states they have to cooperate with federal immigration law. So we are not going to see traffic stops solely for the purpose of inquiring about the immigration status of those in the car.
5. Iowa Statewide Assessment Development will remain in-state.
Governor Reynolds signed HF 2235 in late March without comment.
The Iowa House of Representatives passed HF 2235, the successor to HSB 578, on February 20th 95 to 3. The Iowa Senate passed an amended version of the bill on Tuesday 39 to 10 which the House concurred 86 to 13.
Iowa ended its years-long debate over statewide assessments which I outline here. I had some major concerns with the assessment chosen by the Iowa Department of Education so I’m happy to see the state’s educracy denied for a change. I will be clear, however, this does not rid the state of top-down standards. It just gives the state more control over how those standards are assessed.
Today Iowa Governor Terry Branstad became the longest serving governor in U.S. History having served 20 years, 11 months and three days.

Lily goes off from time to time and sites down quietly with her pens – like lots of six year olds do – to create something. Usually it’s a card or a picture, but sometimes it’s something a bit more of a ‘project’.
Ace day on Saturday – we took Lily and Elsie into ‘The Great Indoors‘ a wonderful collection of children’s creative activities and performances all over the insides of Manchester’s Town Hall, as part of the Manchester International Festival.
We met up with Sally, Sim and Olly, had a romp, got home early and relaxed – job’s a good un. Some nice photo moments too here.
Taking advantage of the pretty much unprecedented February clear spell, I took full advantage of a day’s leave booked to spend with Lily.
We set off bright and early to head over to look at the Anthony Gormley installation on Crosby Sands, between Southport and Liverpool. The vista was so impressive in these clear, crisp conditions; it was inspirational. We returned to the car with one sandy, knackered dog, and had our butties (along with some cheeky scrounging avians, see right) , then were due to head to the museum in Manchester for the afternoon, when we passed Knowsley Safari Park. The sun was out, it was relatively quiet, and the opportunity just begged us. Some photos here (a mix of proper camera and phone stuff). Ace times.
For someone to have the balls and patience to organise it is just beyond me. It’s also deeply metaphorical about art; that it only exists when experienced by people.
Oscar Wilde said that Life imitates art more than art imitates life.
At the Royal College of art in London, Robert Sollis has created Google Carpet. Made from individual carpet tiles, each is a square of 185mm. (This corresponds to one pixel of information on the Google Maps satellite image).
Was sent these by email and they made me giggle.

The traditional way a lot of people imagine buying a property is by getting a real estate agent, going to visit and look over properties, then giving an offer directly to the seller. Once accepted and all the stipulations of the sale contract are met, you now have your home. That's not often the way things operate, nevertheless, particularly in an economy where so many houses are bank-owned because of foreclosure proceedings. Deciding only to look at traditionally-owned homes is subsequently restricting your available choices quite a bit.
Auctions generally come into play if a house owner has gone through a foreclosure, though some homeowners may choose to sell their home at auction rather than pursue traditional methods. In the event of a foreclosure, the bank or loan company they were not able to make payments to is attempting to regain some of their losses by selling the house at auction, while a seller may choose to auction their home if they need to move quickly due to a move or job loss.
When you identify a residence appealing to you that's going to be for sale in this method, it is essential to not just know the auction's location, time, and general bidding procedures, but also to realize that the house may not actually go up on the market this way at all.
The original homeowner generally has 30 days to become up to date on missed home loan payments. In some jurisdictions, they may well be required to pay back the entire mortgage to redeem the residence. Anyway, if the homeowner does conform to these requirements, they are going to stop the auction from occurring, so this is something to keep an eye out for. Homes that aren't redeemed are included in auction.
The real estate auction process is much simpler than the standard home sale process, which is often why people choose auction over traditional real estate. Standard real estate sales typically involve a lengthy negotiation process, followed by a lengthy escrow process, and sometimes re-negotiation midway through escrow. An auction involves none of this.
Before the auction occurs, buyers are given a few short hours to view the home as it is. Buyers do not get a home inspection from a professional home inspector but they can do a property lookup to find out such details as owner information (name, phone number, email address), purchase history, property details (square footage, roof framing code, garage code and more), property value (calculated total value, improvement value, land value, market value, appraised total value, assessed value, and tax amount), mortgage records (loan type, lender name, lender code, etc.), and much more. Once at the auction, buyers compete against one another to purchase the home. Once the home is purchased, it passes ownership from the original owner to the buyer. The transaction is simple compared to the purchase process that occurs when the home is listed through the traditional markets.
Most auctions are located in public locations, usually outdoors, and the bidding process may differ on a state-by-state basis. A number of states need prospective bidders to give the full amount of the home's price they intend to bid on them either in cash or a cashier's check immediately. If you're short on cash, this may well not be the ideal alternative for you. Other states require bidders to bring particular percentage of their winning bid amount with him or her also.
The most effective method to learn about auctions would be to acquaint yourself with their methods by joining one in order to see. You can observe how individuals put in their bids, as well as what occurs when a winning bid is chosen. This may make it achievable for you to be better prepared yourself when your house of choice goes up for auction later on.

Product review: I've never been a fan of Rod Stewart, but when I heard a cut from this new album on the radio, I had to pick it up. As a huge fan of the "old standards" I wasn't sure how much damage Rod Stewart could do to them...what a nice surprise to find that Stewart does a wonderful job! The music is incredibly smooth and Stewart's gravelly voice counters that perfectly. It makes for interesting listening and a wonderfully romantic cd that you'll play again and again. My only complaint is with the choices of songs -- some of them sound too much alike, but that's more a criticism of the songwriters of that era as opposed to Stewart's handling of them. Stewart will never be Dean Martin or Sinatra with their effortless vocal style, but he's done a terrific job and I hope he chooses to do a follow-up to this cd.Overall this is a wonderful cd and has made me a fan of Stewart's...sort of!

Any tips for for dealing with nausea?
I am on day 6 of my 10 day fast. I have been feeling nauseous since day 4. If anyone has tried anything that has worked for them I would love to hear about it. :)
Edit: For anyone else that might be curious about this later I found a few things that helped.
1. Baking soda and water. Drinking a small glass (4-8oz) of water with a small dash (1-2 teaspoons) of baking soda would calm my nausea down from 100% to around 20% or so.
2. Pepto Bismol. This one may be cheating depending on your fast. It worked about the same as baking soda so take your pick.
3. Oral hygiene. Brush your teeth, use a tongue scraper, mouth wash, floss etc. The detox process makes for some strange smells in your mouth and getting rid of them helps immensely.
4. Avoid other bad smells. I found that all my senses were heightened during the fast. Even the smallest bad smell could trigger nausea given a long enough exposure.
5. Body positioning. When laying down, lay on one side or the other. (Right side seems best.) If that is still bad sit up straight.
6. Light self massage. Rub your belly or pound on it lightly with loose fists. This one worked better than I thought it would.
7. Use acupressure points. There are many but the most common suggestion I saw was the one one either wrist three fingers down on the inside of the arm. You can tell if you get the right spot if it is tender when you press firmly yet gently. Google acupressure for nausea if you need more details.
8. Deep breathing. Especially focus on breathing out. An excess of toxins can build up in your lungs which at the minimum equals bad smells. Getting that out of your system helps. (Heck it a good general practice even if you are not fasting.)
All of these worked to varying degrees and there may be more options out there. Hope you all are doing well on your journeys.
Edit 2: I also remembered that chewing sugar free gum helped. Spearmint flavored.
Also using some soothing aromatherapy helped a bit. | 483 |
Do you have a succession planning strategy in place?
There will always be an ebb and flow of talent in any business. The transition of people in and out of your business is a constant given.
As business demands change, roles change; as peoples’ circumstances change, their employment needs change. You’ll always have vacancies that need filling.
Some roles are more pivotal than others, however, and they can’t be left vacant for too long without an adverse effect on the business.
A succession planning strategy is how most companies mitigate the risk for these types of roles.
It’s nothing new. Certain individuals within a business are usually ear-marked to take-over a senior position if or when the current incumbent leaves or retires. They are the successor.
However, there is a lot more to a succession strategy planning than just identifying a potential successor.
Deciding which roles within a business should have a succession plan in place is crucial. Many businesses are realizing it shouldn’t just be the top-level positions that are succession planned.
Crucial roles exist across the breadth and depth of a business, and with the war on talent, succession planning is an attractive quality that millennials and Gen-Z value in a prospective employer.
Over 90% of younger workers (18 to 34) said that working at a company with a clear succession plan would improve their level of engagement, in a survey by Software Advice.
How to create a succession planning strategy, and who should be responsible for the succession planning, is also vital.
HR and People leaders are well positioned to play a key role in the successful implementation of succession planning.
HR and People teams can put programs in place that enable business leaders to make more informed decisions about their people and help effectively communicate the succession plans. Ultimately, communication is the often overlooked piece of the succession planning pie.
Research by Deloitte highlights a lack of clear communication as one of the biggest threats to the successful transition from one generation of business leaders to the next.
Careful consideration must be given to the nature of how and when succession planning is communicated.
Too soon and it can cause unnecessary disruption and unease; too late and whispers and rumors will abound which can cause more harm than good.
Here’s how HR and People leaders can effectively build a succession planning strategy, and communicate succession plans in their business.
Don’t follow the age-old mistake of identifying a successor for a key role within your organization, but never telling that person.
Research by insurance company MassMutual reveals that 25% of employees in line to take over a small business aren’t aware they are the chosen successor.
Bosses too frequently utter the words, ‘But I had great plans for you’, when the ear-marked successor hands their notice in.
If the successor isn’t informed that they are in line to take over a key role within your organization, then they are very likely to look elsewhere as they seek career advancement.
Informing the identified successor that they have been ear-marked for a future role opens a conversation with the employee to establish if they are even interested in a future with the company, and how they feel about the intended role.
It not only shows the employee they are valued, but that their career development matters.
They will feel more engaged and likely to stay with the company longer.
When it’s announced that a key player within a business is due to leave, particularly a well-liked, highly valued team leader or senior manager, it can cause uncertainty among the rest of the employees.
‘Who will take over’, ‘will they change things’, ‘will they have a similar management style’, ‘what will it mean for my role’ are just some of the myriad of questions your employees are likely to be thinking.
If a clear successor has been identified and lined-up ready to take over – and communicated to – it’s a good idea to share the news of the successor with the rest of the business as soon as possible.
The longer people have to digest the news and get used to who the new person is, the better. People by nature don’t like change, so a longer transitionary period is always beneficial to both the business and your employees.
However, if it’s a slightly sensitive departure, or the successor is not 100% bought-into taking over, it may be wise to delay informing everybody straight away.
Sometimes there is a strong case for telling a few key team members or senior managers about a successor first, and then when the successor and their new team are happy, the rest of the business can be informed.
This is where HR and People leaders can help guide the transition and advise on who needs to know what and when.
Succession planning can often incorporate sensitive issues, so it is crucial to balance transparency with discretion.
As well as considering who needs to know what when, consider: does everybody need to know everything about the succession plan, and if so, do they all need to necessarily know at the same time?
Getting your C-suite and the successor to agree which types of information can be shared internally or treated as highly confidential is a good action for HR and People leaders to steer.
Taking time to assess who needs to know what is essential.
Often it can appear to employees that someone internally has just been handed a role on a plate, without any formal selection process or succession plan, particularly if the role wasn’t advertised.
Depending on the nature of the role and size of the company, it can be advisable to announce the vacancy internally at least, to give other team members a chance to put their name forward for the role.
Or, it may suit your business better to share your formal process and criteria for choosing successors.
This could be shared on a need-to-know basis or only if other employees ask, rather than broadcast across the whole business.
There’s no right or wrong way to do this, but it can build trust and boost engagement if as a business you can share the reasons that a successor was chosen.
A succession planning strategy shouldn’t be viewed as a one-off document or plan that’s made, and then not looked at again until the time arises for it to be actioned.
It may be that the employee your C-suite identified as the natural successor some time ago, is now no longer with the company, or perhaps not quite the right fit for the role if the business demands have changed.
As businesses evolve, the responsibilities and requirements of particular roles and departments can shift. It may be that you don’t need a like-for-like replacement when the current incumbent leaves.
A six-monthly review of your company’s succession plans for all the key roles identified as requiring a succession plan is a wise idea in today’s fast-paced markets.
HR and People leaders should work with the senior management to envision alternative business and organizational scenarios for when a position becomes vacant.
Team leaders and managers will have ideas about how things could work when a position becomes vacant; get those ideas on paper, and then look internally to develop succession talent pools against the most likely scenarios.
There may also be new high-performing team members who have come onto your C-suite’s radar that they now want to consider for some of the succession plans, so again, a regular review of the plans with the senior management team to look at the up and coming talent in the company is a valuable use of time.
HR and People leaders can schedule and lead these reviews to ensure they do happen and record the outcomes.
Being an organization with a clear, well-managed and regularly reviewed succession planning strategy shows employees that there is a clear, thought-out process to succession planning and career development at your company.
It enables employees to understand that there will be opportunities for them to advance through the ranks and can encourage employees to go the extra mile to ensure they are seen as a high performing individual – so they can be considered when the time comes to review the current succession plans.
The Software Advice research highlighted that 62% of employees surveyed said they would be ‘significantly more engaged’ at work if their company had a succession plan.
People analytics is vital for identifying which roles require succession planning, and who may be likely contenders as successors.
Its important organizations use people analytics and People Science to inform decisions. That way, HR and People teams have all the information needed at their disposal for fair decision-making.
This also gives HR and People leaders a way to add further credibility to a succession plan strategy, when speaking to the C-suite.
Ultimately, the aim of a succession planning strategy is to future-proof the business and mitigate risk when key people leave the business, ensuring the company keeps moving forward in a productive manner.
Savvy HR and People leaders can position themselves as the succession planning strategy and communication experts, advising the C-suite on when and how best to convey key messages around the company’s succession plans.
Like all communication, there is an art to delivering it successfully, and succession planning is no different.
It can be a sensitive subject but handled effectively, it can boost employee morale, drive engagement and improve retention.

If damage stats scaled with the stat budget, low level gear would have bonuses like "+1% damage to elites" and higher level gear would need to constantly escalate stats forever.
Because the division only uses flat percentages you would quickly reach a point where a single piece of gear could theoretically cap your crit chance.
A game like WoW gets around this by abstracting stats like crit out to another stat that is purposefully deflationary meaning it takes more of the stat to equal 1% crit than it did a level ago... and additionally as you gain more of the stat from higher stat budgeted items its effective value per point lowers over time.
Since the division doesnt have this and only deals in raw percentages... they have to be fixed values. | 153 |

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — A Memphis woman is behind bars after allegedly killing three puppies and injuring her boyfriend following an argument at their home on Sunday.
Jerica Brown was charged with aggravated assault and aggravated cruelty to animals, police said.
Brown's boyfriend told officers the two got into an argument Sunday, resulting in Brown grabbing a knife and poking him in the chest. The action reportedly left two small puncture wounds.
She then allegedly threatened to stab him again.
But the violence didn't end there, the man claimed. He said Brown then went outside, grabbed six of their 10-day-old pit bull terrier puppies and began throwing them to the ground. She then kicked them with such force that three of the dogs didn't survive.
The other three needed immediate care.
No one answered the door at the home Monday, but the victim's brother says at least five children live here and were home when the puppies were killed.
"The only thing I know is that she killed those three dogs. That's the only thing I know," Steve Martin said. "The kids were crying and all of that."
Martin says he's glad Brown is locked up.
Brown was previously arrested for attacking the same boyfriend in 2009 and in a separate incident in which she stabbed two family members. | 269 |

The agreement between the hiring party and the interpreter is a contract whether oral or written. Interpreters should make their expectations clear to the hiring party and obtain the hiring party’s agreement in advance of the job. The interpreter may use a written contract for longer assignments or for assignments requiring special arrangements such as use of additional interpreters, preparation time, or equipment.
Generally, the private practice interpreter fixes an hourly rate and charges for a two to three hour minimum. The interpreter may charge a higher rate for more demanding assignments, or for short-notice requests.
When circumstances require the interpreter to make special preparations in advance of the actual interpreting task, the interpreter and hiring party agree in advance regarding compensation for that preparation time.
For situations requiring interpreting for non-continuous periods time, for the same contractor and on the same day, the interpreter may require payment for the entire block of time.
Interpreters may consider a certain area their regular services delivery area, and not require compensation for travel. When an assignment requires travel outside the service delivery area, the interpreter may require compensation for travel. Some interpreters may require compensation based on mileage while others charge for the travel time at their hourly rate for interpreting. Both reflect portal to portal charges. When an assignment requires an overnight stay, the interpreter may require reimbursement for those experiences.
When an interpreter contracts for an assignment, commits the time, and appears, the interpreter generally charges for the contracted time, whether or not the other parties show up. The interpreter may negotiate with the hiring party on how long the interpreter will wait before declaring a “no-show” and leaving.
When an interpreter contracts for an assignment, commits the time, the interpreter charges for that time unless the hiring party has canceled by a pre-agreed cancellation deadline. Cancellation deadlines may vary from twenty-four hours to two weeks, depending on the circumstances of the job. If an interpreter contracts for an anticipated number of hours, but the actual situation requires less time, the interpreter generally charges for the full contracted time.
Customary practices that have evolved over many years of trial and error have become the norm for the profession. The Association believes that as interpreters manage their private practices in a professional and businesslike manner, the interpreter, deaf consumers, hiring parties, and the general public all gain a clearer understanding of interpreting business practices. | 482 |

Vicky Yang, '13
Hometown:
Wuhan, Hubei, China
Degree:
BS, Mathematical Sciences & Physics
Why I Chose Math:
Vicky started off college as a physics major. In her freshman year, she took a few math classes focusing heavily on proofs that piqued her interest. That was when she realized she was a math major. “Math is the ‘purest science,’” she says. “If you know the language, you can write out an equation, and things make sense.”
Background:
Vicky is from Wuhan, Hubei, China. As a high school student, she spent much of her time doing origami. In fact, much of her love of math stems from her love of origami. “If you want to design something complex, you need to study the geometry of polygons,” she says.
Project experience:
For her math modeling class, her team had to apply math as they would in the real world: approach a problem, make assumptions, and simplify the problems. She finds that way of thinking highly “interesting.” Linear algebra was also enjoyable, because her professor proved every single theorem he taught. “He didn’t tell us; he guided us through the process of analysis,” she says.
Work experience:
The summer after her sophomore year, Vicky worked on a project on geothermal energy. Her work involved partial differential equations, computational math, and numerical approaches. The distance and material of the pipes are two factors that influence the design of the pipes and how they will transfer heat. Vicky’s goal was to study these factors and create the most efficient system for geothermal energy and allow pipes to both effectively release and absorb heat. To do this, she used a simplified 2-D model and solved heat equations.
Other activities:
Vicky takes part in the Social Dance Club, the Ballroom Dance Club, the Society of Martial Arts (for taekwondo), the Chinese Student Association, and the Society of Physics Students. In 2010, she participated in the William Lowell Putnam Competition. Vicky also volunteers as a research assistant in the social psychology lab on campus.
Future plans:
Vicky plans to attend graduate school to gain the experience necessary to apply the knowledge one has learned toward a job.

Right now I'm the QC manager of an entire chemical refinery / production plant. In school I acquired BS in molecular biology with just a minor in chemistry as well as a BBA in finance. While studying I spent a summer working for an analytical / environmental testing lab. After this I worked part time running my own healthcare business for my junior and senior years of university. After graduating I went into the oilfield as a lab tech. Because I started when the boom was still going on they were super short handed so I more or less just showed up and was given the job. Everybody starts out through a temp agency in this area. Within 3 months I rolled over from the temp agency to direct hire and within 6 months I was promoted to shift supervisor. I continued working there at this laboratory for several years and left when I was giving my current opportunity of QC manager for the refinery I'm at. Really a lot of it came down to either being in the right place at the right time or knowing the right people. By that I mean if you are willing to move out to the middle of butt-fuck nowhere Texas / Wyoming / North Dakota / New Mexico then you will have much greater opportunities in terms of career advancement than you will in a big city.
There are two big job routes with a BS. One is an analytical lab type career. You get the cushy 8-5 or 9-4 type hours but they have the highest job requirements (typically want MS or PhD to move up) and pay the least ($40K-$60K). The other big area is manufacturing / production. Whether it be food, petroleum processing, or industrial chemicals or whatever. This area typically requires long hours (~12 hour shifts at most places), but have the most opportunities to advance and you will make much more money (LOTS of overtime). As far as my stats go, no name state school, no publications (but 3 siginificant research projects), 3.5 gpa, and a seriously beefed up resume thanks to a friend who professionally writes resumes and does career coaching. | 422 |

Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) definition
Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) is a generic term that involves hiring another company to take responsibility for a set of business activities or a single function. Processes typically outsourced will be non-mission-critical, such as payroll and benefits management, although the possibilities are expanding. Customer services, in the form of call centres, are often out-sourced to a dedicated firm.
Because BPO often depends on necessary technology/infrastructure that allows external companies to efficiently perform the role, it’s frequently referred to as information technology-enabled services (ITES).
BPO is often called ‘offshoring’ when the company taking over responsibility for a function is located abroad.
A related term is business transformation outsourcing (BTO), where businesses bring in specialist outsiders to help improve processes and make the firm overall more efficient, profitable and successful.
Knowledge Process Outsourcing (KPO) is another related discipline that covers process less able to be automated – payroll, for example, is able to be outsourced because the appropriate software automation is available, whereas talent management would be more challenging because it requires greater human intervention and knowledge of the company. | 248 |

The total investment of the project at Lach Huyen International Gateway Port is VND6.946 trillion ($307 million), 45 per cent of which will come from Haiphong Port JSC and the remaining from loans.
Haiphong Port JSC (under Vietnam National Shipping Lines–Vinalines) has just sent a document to the Ministry of Transport proposing to build two container terminals in Lach Huyen Port (at DEEP C Industrial Zones in Cat Hai district).
Accordingly, the firm proposed to build the two container terminals with the total length of 750m and the capacity to receive 100,000-DWT ships. Additionally, the proposal would also include a barge berth where 100-160-TEU barges could arrive. Technical items will be built synchronously to meet the flow of 1-1.1 million TEUs of goods annually.
The total investment of the project is estimated at VND6.946 trillion ($307 million), 45 per cent of which would come from Haiphong Port JSC and the remaining from loans. If the Ministry of Transport (MoT) approves the project, it will be developed this year.
In addition to cargo transportation, the project contributes to the key role of Haiphong Port JSC and Vinalines in the maritime sector.
According to Decision No.2367/QD-BGTVT dated July 29, 2017 of MoT on approving the plan of the northern seaports by 2020 with a vision to 2030, Lach Huyen Port will be prioritised for development to raise its capacity and contribute to Vietnamese and international goods export-import activities. The port is estimated to have nine terminals with total length of 3,000m by 2020.

Our days are frequently hectic and stressful. If you've ever experienced periods of extreme anxiety, you know how much it may impair your physical and mental health. Finding techniques to be calm and relaxed will help prevent stress from taking a toll on you.
We enjoy our life, environment, and the people around us when we are mentally well. We have the zeal to be creative, learn, attempt new things, and take chances.
We can better deal with the hardships in our personal and professional life. We don't feel good when we think about the pain and fury that can accompany the death of a loved one, relationship troubles, job loss, and other terrible occurrences. Still, we move on gradually and get ourselves normalized.
Protecting our mental health can also aid in treating or preventing mental health issues that occasionally stay connected with chronic physical sickness. Stress management, for example, can have a favorable influence on heart disease.
Here is a list of 16 simple habits to improve your mental health and well-being. Feel free to adapt these practices to your lifestyle or change them as you feel the best!
We live in a fast-paced society. Thanks to the internet, we acquire information rapidly, and we're always on the go, absorbing information and responding emotionally. In some aspects, this is a good thing; we're more connected than ever before, and we can speak with friends and family wherever we are.
We have access to new support networks that we wouldn't have had decades ago. However, it may also bring tension, worry, a sense of being overwhelmed, and tremendous pressure to be ready at all times.
Don't be too hard on yourself! Make time for yourself and practice gratitude and self-care. Go outside and spend some time away from your devices, and try to limit your time on social media. It's okay to take some time off and focus on activities that relax and make you happy, whatever they may be.
Despite our best attempts, it can be challenging to be open about our mental health issues at times. We never know how others would respond, which may be frightening.
However, being honest with yourself, being vulnerable, and asking for help are all critical components of maintaining mental health. Sometimes a kind comment from someone you trust may make all the difference.
We are not built of stone, and everyone suffers at times. Being honest and upfront is the best thing we can do for others and ourselves. It could be as simple as calling a friend and asking to talk, going online and finding an anonymous support network, calling a doctor and asking for help, or attending a local support group.
Whatever path you choose, talking to others, seeking advice, direction, and support can be a very satisfying experience. Who knows, maybe one day you'll be the person people look to when they need help or advice, and you'll be able to provide them with the same assistance you received when you needed it the most.
Daily physical exercise is a powerful technique for developing confidence and fostering positive mental health. Be it a walk around campus or going skiing.
Exercise causes the production of chemicals that improves your mood, such as endorphins and serotonin. It can also assist in alleviating emotions of loneliness and isolation by connecting you with other individuals.
Regular exercise helps reduce stress and symptoms of mental health illnesses such as depression and anxiety. It also aids in recovery from various mental health concerns.
Foods like fruits, vegetables, dark leafy greens, nuts, seeds, beans, lentils, and foods high in omega-3 fatty acids benefit your mental health and brain function. Try incorporating more brainy foods into your daily diet to improve your mental health.
Do you ever attempt to multitask and feel like your head is in a million pieces? You are not alone!
Multitasking reduces efficiency and work performance and may leave your brain feeling overloaded and disoriented. Break the practice of multitasking and replace it with a positive mental health habit.
Remember to appreciate the importance of fresh air and spending time in nature. Fresh air has been associated with increased focus, less stress, better higher mood, lower risk of mental diseases, and increased empathy and collaboration.
Your body craves a vacation from the four walls and the laptop screens. Spending at least 30 minutes in nature can assist in refreshing your body and mind by breaking the day-to-day monotony. Fresh air is a wonderful way to boost your mood and may help cleanse your thoughts. Take some time before or after work to go running or brisk walking in a park or elsewhere.
It does not have to be anything severe or time-consuming. Getting outside for a few minutes daily is a basic and straightforward practice for enhanced mental health.
Choose holidays that offer a variety of outdoor activities such as boating, hiking, and so on.
It is time to check in on your family and friends regularly. Call your parents, write an old pal a message, FaceTime your grandparents, contact your closest friend – do anything you can to keep connected when you are physically out of reach.
A self-critical or perfectionistic personality can exacerbate stress and anxiety. This might include believing that you must be flawless to be accepted, being unable to accept imperfections in yourself, extreme self-scrutiny, or having an inflated perception of others' expectations and your ability to satisfy them.
Despite what many people fear, the remedy to perfectionism is self-compassion, not letting it all go or saying goodbye to standards.
How we treat ourselves through life's ups and downs may greatly influence our mental and physical well-being.
Without a nod to meaning and purpose, no list would be complete. Defining happiness for oneself may be crucial if we battle mood and bad emotions.
Victor Frankl stated in Man's Search for Meaning: "For success, like happiness, cannot be pursued; it must ensue." It's difficult to keep "happy" under control. It is considerably easier to exert control over "meaning."
Finding methods to keep yourself occupied is one of the terrific habits to improve your mental health. Entertainment allows you to divert your attention away from more critical issues. So read a good book, listen to a podcast, or watch that Netflix or Amazon Prime series that everyone is raving about.
These activities might be a fantastic way to keep your thoughts engaged positively. So, attempt an entertaining mental wellness activity.
Taking a shower, getting dressed, and planning your workday is the best way to start your day. These are all things you can do to build a daily habit. You may also schedule a time to journal, watch television, or work on a hobby.
The objective is to establish a cheerful environment where you can look forward to coming to work every day.
Make a list of activities to accomplish throughout the weekdays and weekends to help you build a habit. Once you have your list in place and begin going through it, you may make changes as needed. Although it appears easy, it is a crucial mental health exercise, particularly if you work alone.
Simple things like grocery shopping can be stressful for some people. Don't be surprised if you are one of them; it's more prevalent than you believe! Making lists and taking the time to discover what you need, whether online or in-store, may help you simplify your life and improve your mental health.
Buying enough to last you a couple of weeks and then meal planning, depending on your needs, might also assist. In this manner, you may reduce any stress associated with frequent food shop journeys. By doing so, you are building a flow and minimizing anxiety from a stressful task.
Did you know that one of the most essential practices for mental health is budgeting? So, if you've been falling behind on your expenses, spend some time to get your finances in order. Making it enjoyable is the greatest approach to doing this.
While making your budget or paying payments, enjoy a slice of your favorite dessert. This way, it won't seem like a chore, and you'll like doing it. You'll be shocked at how much better you'll feel once your finances are in order!
Meditation, particularly mindful meditation, helps practitioners to concentrate on the present moment. Suzanne Westbrook, a retired internal medicine doctor at Harvard, described it as a way of "noticing what happens moment to moment, the easy and the difficult, and the painful and the joyful. It's about building muscle to be present and awake in your life."
While individuals worldwide have been practicing meditation for thousands of years, it has only recently become a prominent topic among conventional medicine practitioners, owing to research showing that it does more than make you feel better or less stressed. Physical advantages appear to be supported by clinical data.
According to research, meditation can help people get better hours of sleep by fixing their sleep schedules. It helps to cope with various symptoms of mental diseases like depression and anxiety. It also lessens some psychological challenges associated with chronic pain, and even improve cognitive and behavioral skills.
You don't always have to say yes. If you're feeling stressed or already have a lot on your plate, decline that lunch or happy hour offer. Saying yes to everything not only adds to your stress but also perpetuates the notion that you always want to do things, which might not be the reality.
People around you may automatically sign you up for activities because you generally say yes. Then, you go along with it out of obligation, perpetuating this mentally unproductive loop.
Saying no is difficult for some people because of a personality trait or a sense of responsibility. According to a large body of research, people are trained to say yes from an early age and continue to do so throughout their lives to adhere to society's standards. While it may be difficult to break, begin saying no to things you don't want to do or agree with.
It can improve your mental health by getting you into the habit of doing things that make you happy rather than merely doing things to satisfy others. Don't be concerned about what others will say if you refuse the get-together or reunion. If they genuinely care about you, they will understand you want to avoid activities that don't offer you joy. You're establishing limits, which is just okay.
Pampering yourself may appear selfish when you have a family or other responsibilities. This is for you if you create excuses for not needing a new dress or a visit to the spa. When you work hard every day, it's natural to want to spoil yourself now and again. But it isn't easy when you're used to putting your wishes aside for the sake of others.
It gets tough to break the habit of saying things like "you don't need it" or "it's too much" when purchasing something that will bring you joy. Working hard without putting money away to indulge yourself might make it appear like you're working for nothing.
This might cause you to lose motivation and reduce productivity at work and in life. However, you don't have to break the bank to pamper yourself because there are several methods to practice affordable self-care.
Taking yourself on an at-home date is one of the simplest ways to indulge yourself on a budget. Begin by playing your favorite music and creating a meal you enjoy. Then, decide on some hobbies that would make you joyful. Perhaps drawing, watching movies, reading, or anything that makes you happy.
After that, finish the night with a lovely, warm bath. Light a few candles, use some essential oils for relaxation, and adjust the lighting to your liking. Make a DIY face mask using a moisturizing oil, give yourself a scalp massage, and warm up a towel to drape on your neck for a true spa experience.
Adopting routines that foster a healthy mind and attitude is critical to our mental health. They influence how we interact with people and find purpose in our daily lives.
By following these suggestions, you'll be one step ahead of the stress that might try to suffocate you every day. However, get treatment immediately if you are suffering in life and are melancholic. Asking for assistance is not simply a way to prevent depression or self-harm; it's also a good sign that someone is there to hold your hand and guide you to the light. We realize how critical this is, and we're here to assist.
I hope this blog has given you a better knowledge of several behaviors that most of us unwittingly have and should break. Breaking habits can be as difficult as creating them, so be patient. There will be ups and downs, but even if you use these ideas just once, you'll be well on improving your mental health. | 2,607 |
Personal Stories Living Life No one wants to hear that something is wrong with their mind. Tell them they have a heart condition, diabetes, or any other myriad of “normal” disease and nine times out of ten they’ll handle it better than hearing that they have a mental health condition. In my case, being diagnosed at 19 with a mental illness which could potentially last a lifetime and I may have to take medication for just as long was like getting a death sentence. After all, I had just started life. But over the years, and after some very traumatic hospital visits, I’ve taught myself strategies to get through tough days. It took a long time to learn these simple steps but they’ve helped me get well and stay well. Attitude is everything! A good positive attitude is crucial for a healthy mind. Your attitude toward your doctor, medication and this illness will make or break you. Thinking happy positive thoughts develops a happy positive person! I believe the key to healing is changing the way you think about this illness and life in general. Most psychiatric patients have very low self-esteem and some even hate themselves. Changing destructive outlooks is half the battle. If we teach ourselves to think differently we will feel differently. For example: Stop saying “MY” illness, i.e., “my” depression, “my” sadness etc. People with mental illness are often labeled for the rest of their lives. Any semblance of who we once were gets lost in a label. Remember who you used to be before your diagnosis? Were you good at sports? Did you like art? Do you enjoy music and if so can you play an instrument? Remember who you really are and move in this direction. With the right attitude this illness can be a bump in the road and not something you have to carry on your shoulders for the rest of your life. This is not a death sentence! Redirect your thinking! Think about something other than being sick! What are your goals for the future? Just because you have been diagnosed with a mental illness does not mean you have no future. You do! But it takes a healthy attitude towards medication – taking it when needed, eating right, healthy thinking, etc. Start thinking of ways to help others. When you get your mind off yourself you’d be amazed at how much better you feel. If you wake up every day and force yourself to think happy thoughts from the beginning of the day everything changes. For example: The moment you wake up, before stepping out of bed or putting your feet on the ground say OUT LOUD: “Today is going to be a good day and no matter what happens, good or bad I will NOT let it get to me. I am happy, healthy and whole and I can handle anything that comes my way!” I’m now 51 years old, been married for 25 years and have two beautiful grown children. It’s been almost 30 years since I was in the hospital so I’m living proof you can live a normal life despite a mental health diagnosis. Never give up. Never give in. You are so much stronger than you think. Share your story, message, poem, quote, photo or video of hope, struggle or recovery. By sharing your experience, you can let others know that they are not alone. | 688 |
This look is very easy to do. Taking MakeUp Forever Aqua Cream in 20 which is a bright electric blue cream eyeshadow as my base, I placed this shade on the corners of my eyes with a flat shader eyeshadow brush and took MAC's Eyeshadow in Bronze and placed that on my inner eyelid to act as my 'nude shade'. I really wasn't sure where I was going with this but to try and make my eyes look a bit more cobalt rather than royal blue, I placed MAC Eyeshadow in Stars 'N' Rockets on top of the Aqua Cream Base and blended it out.
My main problem with this look is that it really changed my eye shape but I didn't realise by just how much until I started editing my pictures and it looked like I was wincing in pain, so apologies that I didn't add as many pictures as I normally do
Miss out on MAC Stereo Rose Mineralize Skinfinish?? Well even though it's sold out in all the stores, here is your chance to WIN one!!!! Enter my February give-away! | 224 |
M. Luther* was influenced by Christian marriage ceremonies of the late Middle Ages. In Ein Traubüchlein für die einfültigen Pfarrherr (1529) he divided the rite into (1) pub. of banns (see Marriage, III), (2) marriage proper in front of the church, (3) benediction by God's Word and prayer before the altar. This order for solemnizing marriage was gen. accepted as fundamental. The text and basic order remained even when the whole ceremony took place at the altar. But many ch. orders then placed the lessons first, followed by the marriage ceremony proper, prayers, and benediction. Luths. in Am. use many different, but basically similar, marriage ceremonies. | 160 |
I am taking the Summer Marriage Challenge at Women Living Well. This week's activity is to share memories of your wedding day. I don't have many photos because most of them are packed up for the move. I did scan these two from the wedding album.
We were married on July 8, 1995 at our former parish, SS Casimir and Emerich Church. We attended mass there together every Sunday while we were dating and engaged. We then went on to have our children baptised there as well. Our wedding day was unusually cool and overcast, which was very unusual that summer. Thankfully it didn't rain! I remember being very excited about marrying John. I had lost it at rehearsal the night before when practicing the vows, but was all smiles at the actual ceremony. Everything during the ceremony, from the singing to the readings and vows went perfectly. After the ceremony we went to an estate to have our outdoor photos taken, like the one above.
Following the photos, we had a huge "hunky" reception with about 300 guests....give or take. The food was great, the music was fabulous and everyone had a great time. It went by in a blur for us because we were so busy that we had very little time to just party. I wish that would have been different. It was so wonderful to have so many family and friends share in our special day. My pen pal from third grade even flew in from Minnesota to be part of our wedding party. How wonderful is that?!
Fifteen years later, we still consider our vows sacred. Despite many challenges, our love continues to grow each passing day. I couldn't imagine life without my husband.
Wow! I had only two on each side.
Lovely post! I too felt I didn't have much time to party at my wedding. Thanks for stopping by m y blog! | 379 |

The Ignition Series tournament series in VALORANT turned out to be quite a success, so it is no wonder that Riot Games announced another interesting project for its players. I am talking about the First Strike competition.
The Ignition Series was the first opportunity for teams to compete in official matches and fight for championship titles as well as financial prizes. With the start of the new esports act, the Riot department decided to continue the excitement and this is how First Strike was created, which, unlike its predecessor, will be organized entirely by the producer, and not only receive media support while being run by third-party organizers.
The competition will take place in North America, Europe, for teams from the CIS, Asia, Oceania, Turkey, Brazil and the Middle East. In the first stage, open qualifications will await the teams, which will determine the final list of eight teams. The final matches are planned for the beginning of December, where the fight for the title of the first official champion of the region will be fought.
More information about First Strike is expected to appear in the coming days. It goes for, among others, competition dates as well as the prize pool. We can certainly expect that the team reward will allude to the Ignition Series, where players have made over a million dollars in total. | 267 |
In the lead-up to Hurricane Florence, conservative firebrand Rush Limbaugh griped about weather reporters for drawing a link between climate change and the storm. “Hurricanes and hurricane forecasting is like much else that the left has gotten its hands on, and they politicize these things,” he said. Limbaugh isn’t alone. Senior officials in the Trump administration have repeatedly chastised reporters for talking about climate change in the midst of a natural disaster, and more than a few are taking the hint.
TV news outlets scarcely mentioned climate change in their coverage of Hurricane Florence, a storm made dramatically worse by rising temperatures. While that may seem politically safe, the people who lived through the storm want a different approach. A new poll finds that North Carolina voters are concerned about climate change and believe that reporters should cover the issue. In the future, broadcast journalists might take a cue from their viewers.
More than 60 percent North Carolina voters are worried about climate change, and some 55 percent say it is appropriate to talk about the issue when disaster strikes, according to the poll, which was carried about by researchers from Yale University, George Mason University and Climate Nexus.
“Contrary to arguments made by some politicians that it’s ‘too soon’ to talk about the links between climate change and extreme weather during or immediately after a disaster, this study finds that most North Carolina voters want the media to talk about these connections in real time,” said Anthony Leiserowitz, director of the Yale Program on Climate Change Communication.
Media Matters
A clear majority of North Carolina voters think climate change affected the volume of rainfall during Hurricane Florence, a view that is supported by research. Most also believe that climate change is making hurricanes and floods worse, views that are similarly consistent with climate science.
The issue is highly polarized, which may discourage reporters from covering it. The North Carolina poll shows a yawning divide between Republicans and Democrats — Democrats are more likely to worry about climate change and more likely to believe it played a role in Hurricane Florence. A new study finds that, while extreme weather will do little to alter political beliefs, political beliefs can radically alter views of extreme weather.
“This research shows people’s perception of extreme weather can be processed through partisan lenses,” said Ben Lyons, a University of Exeter sociologist, and lead author of the study. “This means efforts to connect extreme events with climate change may do more to rally those with liberal beliefs than convince those with more conservative views that humans are having an impact on the climate.”
This fact shouldn’t scare reporters. Lyons said the public is responsive to coverage of exceptionally severe weather events. “Very extreme weather accompanied by constant media coverage is harder for people to deny,” Lyons said. “Particularly intense events — a 100-year flood or catastrophic hurricane — might be most capable of influencing attitudes.” Hurricane Florence offered a prime opportunity to educate the public about climate change — one that was largely squandered by broadcast news outlets.
A few days before the storm hit North Carolina, President Trump said locals “haven’t seen anything like what’s coming at us in 25, 30 years, maybe ever. It’s tremendously big and tremendously wet. Tremendous amounts of water.” It is striking that a president known for his bravado and bluster managed to undersell the storm. Florence broke all-time rainfall records in North Carolina by several inches.
When the weather breaks records, climate change is usually part of the story. Many people understand this, and they expect news outlets to explain how carbon pollution is fueling more severe storms, like Hurricane Florence. Next time, TV reporters might take the cue.

I have different sleeves for different purposes. Cards in overflow boxes, binders, decks all get sleeves, basically only bulk cards get stored without them.
Decks - KMC hard inner sleeves and Dragon Shield matte sleeves on the outside. Protection wise most name brand sleeves are probably good enough, but I like the way these shuffle and feel.
Trade/Binder - KMC hard inner and ultra pro pro matte outers. UP Pro matte appear to be the ones I can buy a ton of at a really good price. So I can keep thousands of them on hand for new batches of incoming cards that are going into binders or overflow boxes.
Shipping cards out - Unless a card is worth more than 10 dollars it gets a cheap/bulk inner and a cheap/bulk outer of whatever I have laying around. Then packed into a top loader and sealed with MASKING TAPE. People who use invisible tape are heathens.
Its pretty much always KMC hard inner sleeves as those are my favorite, but the DS and BCW inners are also really good. For | 225 |
Mysterious OUTBREAK In Multiple States – It’s Spreading!
(FeaturedNews.com) – Hepatitis is a disease that affects the liver and causes it to become inflamed. On April 21, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) issued a warning about a widespread outbreak of the condition in children. The agency said there have been patients ranging from 1 month to 16 years old.
The CDC explains viruses cause most cases of hepatitis, especially in children. Symptoms of the condition include nausea, loss of appetite, dark urine, joint pain, fatigue, jaundice, abdominal pain, light-colored stools, fever, and vomiting. Medical professionals treat the condition based on its cause.
Shocking. I can't imagine why.
The New York Post reported most of the current patients are in Europe. Some cases have been severe, requiring liver transplants, and in one situation, a child died from the illness. The United Kingdom has had the most cases reported, at 114. In the US, there have been nine cases reported in Alabama, three in Illinois, and two in North Carolina.
The BBC reported that medical professionals are uncertain what virus is causing the outbreak, but they think there may be a link to adenovirus. Experts say developing hepatitis from this virus is not common, but they believe that since adenovirus disappeared during the pandemic, some children never experienced a first-time exposure until they were older than the usual age. They feel this late exposure could cause a response that’s leading to liver inflammation.

The difference between elbow macaroni and pasta is the diameter of their strands. Macaroni has a larger diameter, making it easier to cook because you can use more water for cooking than with spaghetti noodles.
The “difference between pasta and macaroni salad” is the difference in cooking time, shape, and size. Macaroni is a long tube-shaped pasta that can be boiled or baked. Pasta is made from flour and water and is usually cooked in boiling water.
Short lengths of macaroni are common. Elbow macaroni has a bend and is trimmed in length. The differing speeds on opposing sides of the pasta tube when it is pulled out of the machine result in this curved form. While certain machines can generate various macaroni forms, the majority of macaroni is made on a huge scale.
Furthermore, what distinguishes macaroni from pasta?
It’s true that macaroni is a sort of pasta. Pasta is a term that, in a way, depicts the climax of a sort of flour-based meal, mainly noodles. Macaroni is a kind of pasta. As a result, there is no distinction between the two.
As a result, the issue arises: may pasta be substituted for macaroni? Substitute for macaroni OR – Use another pasta, such as spaghetti or linguine, in place of macaroni. Because most pastas are manufactured with the same components, the taste is almost identical.
So, are elbows and Macaroni the same thing?
Macaroni is generally cut in short lengths and is made from durum wheat; bent macaroni is known as elbow macaroni. Because elbow-shaped macaroni is the most common form used in macaroni and cheese dishes in North America, the name “macaroni” is commonly used interchangeably with it.
Is it possible to use penne instead of elbow macaroni?
The taste will not be affected if elbow macaroni is used instead of penne rigate. Because a cup of elbow macaroni has more individual noodles than a cup of penne rigate, a single serving of penne rigate may seem to have less pasta and more sauce because it has fewer noodles.
Do all pasta in Italy get the name macaroni?
Take note of the many forms and types – most of them are string-shaped. But, yeah, ‘noodles’ is a ridiculous name for pasta. Many older Italians refer to pasta in general as’macaroni’ (or the dialect term, which varies from place to place but is frequently pronounced something like’maccarun’).
Is macaroni a healthy food?
Pasta may be part of a healthy diet when consumed in moderation. For many people, whole-grain pasta is a preferable option since it contains more fiber and minerals while being lower in calories and carbohydrates. You may also add a protein of your choosing to your spaghetti to make it a more balanced meal.
What is the purpose of macaroni?
In the United States, macaroni is often used in macaroni and cheese, a classic dish that has been passed down through the centuries. The name is derived from the Italian word macaroni (the plural form of maccherone). Macaroni goes excellent with almost any sauce, baked goods, soups, salads, and stir-fry foods.
Is macaroni a healthy weight-loss food?
Yes, it’s true! Of course, you may lose weight by eating pasta as long as you keep your portion sizes in line and it isn’t filled with meat or coated in Alfredo sauce. Pasta is a healthy meal on its own. As a consequence, they might make you feel satisfied for longer after you eat.
How do you prepare macaroni and cheese?
Pasta is made by combining milled wheat, water, eggs (for egg noodles and egg spaghetti), and sometimes other substances. These ingredients are usually combined to a continuous, high-capacity auger extruder, which may be fitted with a variety of dies to decide the pasta’s form.
Is it true that macaroni and cheese is unhealthy for you?
One of the reasons macaroni and cheese may be considered healthy is because it contains protein. So, if you’re like us and devour the whole box, you’ll get 27 grams of protein. That’s not awful! While the typical package of macaroni and cheese is high in protein, it isn’t the greatest — or healthiest — choice.
What is the name of a single macaroni piece?
Spaghetti, macaroni, and linguini are often used for the uncountable (although it is linguine in Italian.)
What is the origin of the name macaroni?
in Italian cuisine; a meal made up of this.” The Italian “maccheroni,” which was derived from the Greek “makaria,” meaning “meal produced from barley,” was the source of the term “macaroni,” which first appeared in English at the end of the 16th century.
What are the many types of macaroni?
(a) Macaroni products are a kind of food created by drying formed units of dough made from semolina, durum flour, farina, flour, or any combination of two or more of these, with water and one or more of the optional ingredients listed in paragraphs (a) (1) to (6) of this section.
What kind of noodles go well with mac and cheese?
Avoid long, thin pasta like spaghetti and linguine, as well as forms that are very small. Take the following advice: Choose a noodle that has a lot of surface area and nooks and crannies so you can soak up as much of that delicious cheese sauce as possible. Shells, campanelle, and the ever-classic elbow macaroni are among my favorites.
Is Suji used in macaroni?
Durum wheat is used to make the majority of the macaroni. Durum wheat is a hard wheat that produces chewy, durable pasta. Because macaroni has a particular pasta form, it is impossible to make at home. Rice flour, spelt flour, and a variety of other grain flours may all be used to make macaroni.
Is macaroni considered a vegetable?
In the south, macaroni and cheese is its own food category, as I’ve discovered. It may be served with any meal at any time. It combines the functions of a main entrée, a side dish, and a vegetable. In the South, a supper without macaroni and cheese is like peanut butter without jelly, or bananas if you’re in the South.
What is the difference between macaroni and pasta salads?
Pasta salad is a meal prepared with oil, vinegar, pasta (perhaps macaroni, but more commonly bow ties or a twisted noodle), and other ingredients. It isn’t creamy at all. Pasta (typically elbow macaroni), a sweetened mayonnaise sauce, and various little particles make up macaroni salad.
Is it possible to use rotini instead of penne?
If you don’t have rotini on hand, fusili, rigatoni, or penne are all suitable substitutes. Of course, you may always use the tri-color rotini instead of the basic white rotini.
Is there a distinction between penne and penne rigate?
PENNE. Penne comes in two varieties: smooth (lisce) and ridged (rigate), with the ridged varieties being a little sturdier and better at soaking up sauce than their smoother counterparts.
Is it possible to make mac and cheese using cavatappi?
The cavatappi pasta lends heartiness to macaroni and cheese when cooked al-denti (firm to the bite). Cavatappi pasta is also known by various names, including cellentani, amori, spirali, and tortiglione. With the cavatappi pasta, this macaroni and cheese is delicious.
What can I use instead of Cavatappi pasta?

System Integrators or an All-in-one IoT Platform?
System integrators play a unique role in the world of IoT. They bring disparate cross-vendor solutions together to create distinctive IoT ecosystems. System integrators consolidate offerings by sensor and gateway vendors, data storage providers, and IoT platforms with different functionalities to create a seamless solution to be delivered to the end customer. And many industrial enterprises take the assembly approach. That is, they leverage IoT system integration expertise to put together their use cases. At the same time, IoT platform vendors are picking up pace. In making IoT platform offerings more and more comprehensive, platform providers are now able to produce an end-to-end infrastructure for different industrial IoT application scenarios.
IoT professional services are in high demand. Most companies do not have the needed in-house expertise to integrate systems from scratch. That’s why, as building IoT architectures is becoming complex and the required know-how more specialized, the deployment of IoT technology often falls in the hands of external IoT system integration providers.
System integrators can consolidate knowledge coming from many disparate areas. This includes connectivity, embedded design, data analytics and data science, engineering, cloud and IT architectures, app development, and deployment. An IoT system integrator provides the glue that brings all these diverse skills together into a unified IoT solution that can scale.
System integration starts at the level of the connected IoT device. But where do we take it from there? Use case selection and defining the right priorities is becoming increasingly difficult in scenarios where a PoC takes months and companies may realize they are on the wrong track only after they have initiated deployment. A company may start with asset tracking and launch an elaborate pilot only to discover, half a year along the way, that the project generates no ROI and they actually need predictive maintenance.
In the crowded IoT space, IoT system integrators are now also expected to be strategic minds. They not only provide an assembly solution but also advise on use case priorities, project design, and implementation.
Most industrial enterprises do not have the in-house expertise to map out, design, and implement a fully-fledged IoT solution. So it is often the case that this task falls in the hands of system integrators. At this point, designing and, at times, implementing custom IoT solutions has become the daily bread of system integration providers.
This is a challenge on both fronts. Integrators, on the one hand, are pressed to significantly expand their levels of expertise. And companies, on the other hand, are becoming fully reliant on external expertise for their IoT projects to run smoothly.
System integrators are continuously expanding the scope of their activities. Companies are now expecting them to also advise on process optimization and go-to-market strategies. That is, manufacturing companies are now hiring system integrators as consultants.
They advice on projects to potentially help streamline shop floor activity and improve overall operational efficiency. Further, system integrators are now expected to advise on bringing smart connected solutions to market. This often takes place in a setting where solutions are offered as a service to third parties.
Another pain point for system integrators involves not only adopting a holistic view but also creating a strategy for the long term to help organizations scale seamlessly where needed. This involves putting all pieces together in such a way that the end-to-end solution allows for scaling as a whole while making it possible for the individual components to scale as well.
For example, this involves scalable hybrid or cloud architectures. These should be able to accommodate increasing volumes of IoT data coming towards the cloud. But even more so, IoT system integrators are expected to be able to design systems where disparate assets and technologies, starting at the level of the connected device, can scale as well.
When building up strategies for the IoT value chain, it becomes necessary to tap into the resources of different departments. These often entail highly specialized levels of know-how. At times, it is difficult to obtain a bird-eye view of all processes and see how different roles hang together.
Companies need to realise that once a solution is there, they will need to sustainably train diverse sets of specialists. At times, this means accommodating very different mindsets and making them work together. It is frequently the case that reskilling the existing talent is not enough. And retaining that talent is even more challenging in a volatile field.
The tasks of connecting disparate solutions by different vendors, consolidating the asset landscape, harmonizing applications, and combining platforms require a holistic mindset that can guide a company all the way from initial infrastructure design to massive scale-out IoT deployment. And as setups within organizations are becoming increasingly interconnected, end-to-end integration has been established as the norm in delivering strong outcomes.
Still, IoT platform vendors are picking up pace. So it may no longer be necessary to build IoT architectures from scratch to only serve a limited number of solutions or rely on third-party talent to help you scale. End-to-end industrial IoT platforms today come with easily accessible user interfaces and the necessary infrastructure to see a project through from PoC to large-scale deployments.
This involves connecting disparate industrial assets to a single platform, collecting and storing device data, plus developing AI in the cloud and deploying back to the edge of the network. The current developments in IoT place an emphasis on knowledge related to edge-to-cloud scenarios and harmonizing the edge-to-cloud setup. And the end-to-end IoT platform can deliver just that.
The Record Evolution platform is a trusted ally in consolidating all industrial assets within an organization. The platform provides a single source of truth for all data-driven activities around industrial equipment. And it offers a seamless edge-to-cloud development cycle to meet shifting digital demands.
The development platform covers a wide array of the necessary tech stack, provides the possibility to oversee an entire project lifecycle within a single venue, and delivers key platform capabilities across the IoT value chain. Also, the entire project know-how remains within the company and is easily accessible from the platform. This gives organizations the possibility to create custom workflows for different scenarios and facilitate collaboration across departments. | 1,256 |

The fusion process of Ca induced reactions is studied with the two-step model. In this model, the fusion process is devided into two stages: first, the sticking stage where projectile and target come to the touching point over the Coulomb barrier from infinite distance, and second, the formation stage where the di-nucleus formed with projectile and target evolve to form the spherical compound nucleus from the touching point. By the use of the statistical evaporation model, the residue cross sections for different neutron evaporation channels are analyzed. From the results, optimum reactions are given to synthesize Z = 117 element with Ca induced reactions. | 152 |
I used to have pretty bad teen and adult acne/ingrown hairs. This is how I started shaving and it fixed my skin problems too.
First, I break my face up into 7 quadrants. Left and ride side of face (Q1 & Q2), under the nose (Q3). Left (Q4), right(Q5) and front of neck(Q6). Last under the mouth (Q7). Personally I dry shave as my beard doesnt grow very fast and it saves me a little more time. It also means I am not putting stuff on my face that clogs my pores and leads to breakouts. (Just personal opinion no scientific facts)
I shave after my shower so that the hairs have been steamed a little. I first go against the grain, so the neck I shave from the bottom up towards my jaw line (Q4,5,6). The face I shave from the top of my face towards my jaw line. (Q1&2)
I then repeat the process going with the grain.
I then do Q3 and Q7 as they need a little more attention around the lips, nose etc.
Finally, I wash down my face with water and a clean dry towel.
I am sure there are lots of right and wrong ways to do it. Find a process that works for you.
I can't comment on people's razor/lotion/aftershave comments but a good razor is invaluable to a close shave without razor burn or ingrown hairs. I buy the ones without the rubber strips on the front and the back that break down. (Cheap old fashioned straight edge) I put them into an antiseptic solution like your barber uses.
Razors feel dull because of hard water, minerals and the plastic stuff wearing off. Skip the gimicky razor "add ons" and your razors will last a long time.
There are lots of tips on male grooming out there, check them out. Good luck. | 434 |
Britain’s love affair with one of history’s greatest artists, the multi-faceted career of the German Expressionist Emil Nolde and the extraordinary ambition of Jenny Saville’s monumental paintings will be among the subjects explored in the National Galleries of Scotland’s programme of major exhibitions for 2018, it was announced today. Other highlights will celebrate Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec’s mastery of the lithographic poster and the powerful, beautiful portraits of Scottish artist Victoria Crowe.
Rembrandt: Britain’s Discovery of the Master will be the major summer Festival exhibition at the Scottish National Gallery next year. This exclusive new show, which will only be seen in Edinburgh, will reveal how the taste for Rembrandt’s work in Britain evolved over the past 400 years. From around 1630 it grew into a mania that gripped collectors and art lovers across the country, reaching a fever pitch in the late-eighteenth century. The exhibition will also reveal the profound impact of Rembrandt’s art on the British imagination, by exploring the wide range of native artists whose work has been inspired by the Dutch master right up to the present day.
The exhibition will bring together key works by Rembrandt which remain in British collections, including Belshazzar’s Feast (c.1635) from the National Gallery London, and Girl at a Window (1645) from Dulwich Picture Gallery, as well as star paintings now overseas, such as The Mill (1645/8) from the National Gallery in Washington, which left Britain when it was sold to a US collector for the staggering sum of £100,000 in 1911.
Rembrandt: Britain’s Discovery of the Master, which opens on 7 July and runs until 14 October, has been conceived by Dr Tico Seifert, the NGS Senior Curator of Northern European Art, and will have its only showing in Edinburgh. The exhibition is supported by the Friends of the National Galleries of Scotland and Players of the People’s Postcode Lottery.
The large-scale summer exhibition at the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art (SNGMA) in 2018 will be a major survey of the career of the celebrated German Expressionist artist, Emil Nolde (1867-1956). Nolde was one of the greatest colourists of the twentieth century, an artist passionate about his north German home near the Danish border - with its immense skies, flat, windswept landscapes and storm-tossed seas - but equally fascinated by the demi-monde of Berlin’s cafés and cabarets, the busy to and fro of tugboats in the port of Hamburg and the myriad peoples and places he saw on his trip to the South Seas in 1914. Nolde felt strongly about what he painted, identifying with his subjects in every brushstroke he made, heightening his colours and simplifying his shapes, so that viewers could also experience his emotional response to the world about him.
Emil Nolde: Colour is Life, will comprise about 120 paintings, drawings, watercolours and prints, drawn from the incomparable collection of the Emil Nolde Foundation in Seebüll (the artist’s former home in north Germany), and will cover Nolde’s complete career, from his early atmospheric paintings of his homeland right through to the intensely coloured, so-called ‘unpainted pictures’ - works done on small pieces of paper during the Third Reich, when Nolde was branded a ‘degenerate’ artist and forbidden to work as a professional artist. The works on show will also include Nolde’s justly famous flower and garden paintings, and his extraordinary religious paintings, with their strange mixture of spirituality and eroticism.
The exhibition is a collaboration between the Emil Nolde Foundation, Seebüll, the National Gallery of Ireland, Dublin, where it will be shown first, and the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, where it will be shown at Modern Two from 14 July to 21 October 2018. This will only be the second exhibition of Nolde’s work in Scotland (the first was a small show of his watercolours at the NGS in 1968). It will be the largest exhibition in the UK since 1996.
The third instalment of NOW, a three-year series of contemporary art exhibitions currently running at the SNGMA, will open on 24 March 2018, and feature a major career-spanning presentation of works by renowned British artist Jenny Saville (b.1970). Saville graduated from Glasgow School of Art in 1992 and has enjoyed worldwide success over the past 25 years. She is best known for her paintings which often depict the naked female form in close-up and on a massive scale. This will be the first museum exhibition of her work ever to be staged in Scotland. It will feature monumental paintings and drawings dating between 1992 and 2017, which demonstrate the scale and ambition of the artist’s practice, and her singular and dynamic approach to composition, gesture, materials and subject matter.
This edition of NOW will also feature the work of five further artists who have addressed themes of the body, performance, process and materiality. These will include the installation of a major new work by Scottish artist Christine Borland (b.1965), recently commissioned by the Institute of Transplantation, Newcastle; a room of painted metal sculptural works by Glasgow-based artist Sara Barker; a photographic series by the South African artist Robin Rhode; a two-channel video by Austrian artist Markus Schinwald; and new works by Edinburgh-based artist Catherine Street.
Victoria Crowe: Beyond Likeness, which opens at the Scottish National Portrait Gallery next spring and runs until November 2018, will bring together a group of outstanding portraits by the distinguished Scottish artist Victoria Crowe (b.1945). Crowe’s approach to portraiture seeks to do more than record the outward appearance of a person, but to represent also something of her sitters’ inner life - the experiences and preoccupations of the individuals depicted, their world of ideas and dreams. This exhibition will not only demonstrate the exceptional skill of a remarkable painter and colourist, but also tell Crowe’s story - both professional and personal – through her art. The portraits selected represent a journey for the artist, and include depictions of outstanding figures from the worlds of the arts and sciences; these include her friend and neighbour the composer Ronald Stevenson; the pioneer medical scientist Dame Janet Vaughan; the poet Kathleen Raine; the actor Graham Crowden; the psychiatrist R D Laing; and Professor Sir Peter Higgs.
Pin-ups: Toulouse Lautrec and the Art of Celebrity will be the first exhibition held at the NGS devoted to the art of Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec (1864-1901), the celebrated French Post-Impressionist artist whose work is synonymous with the bohemian nightlife of Paris in the late-19th Century. The 'city of pleasure’ was famed for its cabarets, dance halls and cafés; most famous of all were the nightspots of the district of Montmartre, where Toulouse-Lautrec lived, worked and socialised, including the now legendary café-cabarets Le Moulin Rouge and Le Chat Noir. Pin-ups: Toulouse Lautrec and the Art of Celebrity will focus on the artist’s lithographic posters, portfolio prints and illustrations which made stars of Montmartre’s venues and their entertainers - personalities such as Yvette Guilbert, Jane Avril and Aristide Bruant. Toulouse-Lautrec’s career coincided with a revolutionary moment in the history of western printmaking – the development of the poster as a means of mass-marketing – and lithography and poster-making were central to his creative process from his first experiments in the medium in 1891 until his death in 1901.
Around 75 works by Toulouse-Lautrec and his contemporaries will be on show, including prints by Pierre Bonnard, Théophile Alexandre Steinlen and Jules Chéret. British artists were equally attracted to the dynamic café culture of Montmartre and the exhibition will also showcase works by artists such as Walter Sickert, Arthur Melville, J D Fergusson and William Nicholson, among others. There will be key loans from the Victoria & Albert Museum, the Ashmolean Museum and Aberdeen Art Gallery.

Travelers must obtain a firearm importation permit from a Honduran Embassy, Consulate General or Consulate located in. for similar offenses. Persons violating Honduran laws, even unknowingly, may be fined, expelled, arrested or imprisoned. Penalties for possession, use, or trafficking in illegal drugs in Honduras are severe, and convicted offenders can expect long jail sentences and heavy fines. Assisting or participating in the distribution of illegal drugs is also a crime prosecutable in the U.S., and may lead to fines, property seizure, or imprisonment. Anyone offering you illegal drugs should be considered extremely dangerous – there is no “safe” source of illegal drugs.
"Sexual tourists" travel alone or in groups to Honduras for the purpose of purchasing sexual favors from minors. This activity violates Honduran law, and American citizens are imprisoned in Honduras for sexual offenses involving minors. In addition, U.S. citizens and residents charged with these crimes are subject to prosecution upon their return to the U.S., regardless of the outcome of the judicial proceedings overseas. Moreover, the prevalence of HIV/AIDS in sex workers in Honduras is estimated to be in excess of 10%.Using or disseminating child pornography in a foreign country is also a crime prosecutable in the United States. Please see our information on Criminal Penalties.CHILDREN'S ISSUES: International adoptions from Honduras are very complex. Current information on Honduran adoption procedures and the immigrant visa application process is available from the Consular Section of the U.S. Embassy. Prospective adoptive parents are urged to check with the Consular Section to ensure that all required documentation has been approved by the U.S. Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services of the Department of Homeland Security and to confirm that their child's adoption is complete before traveling to Honduras to apply for their child's immigrant visa. Adoptive parents are also urged to carry with them complete adoption paperwork when traveling with their adopted child to, from, and within Honduras.
Honduras is a signatory to the Hague Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction, but the U.S. Department of State has determined that Honduras has failed to comply with its obligations under the Convention. No child has ever been returned to the United States from Honduras under the provisions of the Convention.

Since 17 March, the Foreign and Commonwealth Office has advised against all but essential travel globally. Travellers should check the details of their policy and speak to their insurance company about any claim they wish to make. | 88 |
Wine delights heart ….
Wine delights heart …. our forefathers were saying. Crete is the ideal place to do it. The Cretan land is gifted with the gift of precious goods that delight the heart, the body and the soul of man.
Crete has a winery tradition of 4,000 years. Findings from the ancient vines are located in Archanes, Heraklion. There you will find the oldest wine press.
Thanks to the favorable climatic conditions of the Cretan land, the varieties of wines are excellent. Some of the most popular varieties are Vilana, Vidianos, Dafni, Thrapsathiri, Malvasia di Candia, Moschato Spina, Plito, for the white Wine category. For the category of Red wines, you should not miss tasting Kotsifali, Mandalari, Liatiko, Cabernet Sauvignon, Sangiovese, and the historic Romaiiko.
The wine grape was intensively cultivated for the first time in the Eastern Mediterranean coasts and mainly in Greece. Wild grapes have been found in caves where they were inhabited by nomadic prehistoric tribes. Findings in amphoras found in Gortynia prove the existence of Cretan Wines as well as the 4th century AD.
After the end of the ancient period, wine production declines. Crete was a crossroads of infinite raids and invasions, which contributed negatively to wine production.
During the Venetian domination, the sweet Wine, the Malvasia of the Franks, comes to light. During the Ottoman domination, production takes place exclusively at home.
Since the beginning of the 20th century, things in wine production have changed dramatically. Many wine producers return to traditional production. The art and the taste of the wine-making are bequeathed from generation to generation. They open the streets of Greek wine in foreign countries with great achievements and strong distinctions.

PMI Baltimore Site - Columbia Lunch Meeting
This educational event qualifies for 1.00 PDU within the PMI Talent Triangle - Strategic and Business Management
Project Management Business Administration (PMBA)
Business Administration is often very generalized and even more often overlooked by project managers. This course is targeted to teach you the strategic and business administration concepts that are specific to project management.
Too many times we try to manage our projects in a vacuum without awareness of how we impact the company overall, and how the company overall impacts our performance as project managers.
This course begins with general principles of Project Management Business Administration (PMBA) and continues to elaborate on specific topics relevant to pre-bid scenarios, execution phase strategies, and close out dilemmas..
The most costly endeavor for projects are claims and litigation where only pennies on the dollar are ever recovered. Stop making the attorneys rich on your project budget by learning some key strategies to mitigating claims and avoiding litigation entirely.
When your clients feel comfortable with your broad perspective and business administration skills, they will want to work with your company again, and they will ask for you by name.
With these lessons you can be the person in demand, with your clients, and across your company. There is no better job security than to be the person everyone turns to for successful project management.

Alyx stood near the starting line of the night-race, a strip of purple material that fluttered in a slight breeze stretching out between the hands of two scantily-clad seraphelle. In the crowd there were a few faces, leering and eager, that she remembered seeing at the last race and the one before that. They were her followers and bet for her to win.
A face in particular caught her attention. He had a strong stubbled jaw and sun-streaked hair, loose and long like a gypsy. Even she could admit he was handsome, but that’s not why he was standing out to her. He was staring at her and he didn’t look away when she glared back.
Instead he moved towards her and the crowd moved around him like water around a rock. His body was muscled yet graceful, like that of a warrior, but he was no one she recognized.
“Hey,” he said when he got within earshot.
Alyx ignored him and turned her attention to her race competitor. The announcer called him Griffin but she knew it wasn’t his real name. Just as Bullet wasn’t her real name. She didn’t recognize Griffin but she could tell from his build that he was another lightwarrior. From the deep tan of his skin, Alyx guessed he was from the coastal city of Urielos. He was standing within a small group of Seraphim while she stood alone.
The man with the staring problem had stopped right next to her, looking down at her from his extra head of height. This close she could see those probing eyes of his were pale green, the color of mint tea. Apparently he didn’t understand the concept of personal space.
“What do you want then?” Alyx turned her face from him again.
She whirled around to him, her blood thumping in her ears. Her hand went to the blade handle at her hip. His hand closed down on hers so that she couldn’t draw. Their hands trembled from exertion against each other. Their eyes locked.
A hush descended upon the crowd, punctuated by a couple of catcalls and the complaints of a few who were being jostled. Alyx barely noticed as she and this seraph were still locked in this strange battle of will and strength.
“Looks like they need you, Bullet,” he said. “I’ll catch you another time when you’re not so…busy.” He moved his hand off hers and the pressure released.

A recent report by Hafıza Merkezi (the Center for Truth, Justice and Memory) indicates that 1,353 persons have thus far been disappeared by forces directly or indirectly connected with the state since the Sept. 12, 1980 military coup.
The last half-century in Turkey was marked by widespread and grave human rights violations in the aftermath of military coups and rights violations centered on the ongoing Kurdish question in particular in the 1990s, the period that is known as the “dark era.” Thousands of individuals were abducted, forcibly disappeared or fell victim to unsolved murders for political reasons in those years.
According to the Center for Truth, Justice and Memory report titled “Zorla Kaybetmeler ve Yargının Tutumu” (Enforced Disappearances and the Conduct of the Judiciary) over 1,353 persons in southeastern regions of Turkey have disappeared since the Sept. 12, 1980 coup, a period that is identified in the report as the starting point of illegal state-originated activities in Turkey.
The report states many paramilitary, clandestine structures within the state or military resorted to illegal acts as part of Turkey's counter terrorism strategy during the 15-year Emergency Rule Region (OHAL) period in the Southeast.
The report indicates that the bodies of 67 percent of the victims of forced disappearances have not been found, the bodies of 25 percent of the victims were found and delivered to the victims' families, while the bodies of 8 percent of the victims were found, but their bodies have not been given to their families.
An analysis in the report based on the places, names and cases shows that provinces where acts of enforced disappearances took place most frequently are Diyarbakır with 28.1 percent of the total, Şırnak with 14.8 percent, Mardin with 13.7 percent, İstanbul with 6.05 percent, Batman with 5.75 percent, Hakkari with 5 percent and Tunceli with 3.3 percent.
The center says in the report that individuals in charge in the military, government and politics of the era have not been tried, punished or held accountable to the satisfaction of the public for the offenses they committed in that era.
It also criticizes the judiciary for deliberately remaining ineffective in prosecuting forced disappearance incidents and extrajudicial killings that took place during this dark era.
According to the report, prosecutors did what they could to procrastinate when it came to uncovering the details of forced disappearances and unknown killings in that era.
A statistic in the reports shows that 75 percent of investigations launched into incidents of forced disappearances are still stalled, while 8 percent of them still continue.
A verdict of non-prosecution has been declared for 8 percent of forced disappearances, 6 percent of the cases have dropped as the statute of limitations had expired, the court acquitted the possible suspects for 2 percent of forced disappearance cases, while only 1 percent of cases have concluded with the punishment of perpetrators.
The center states in the report that investigation reports drawn up by Parliament and the Prime Ministry regarding the forced disappearance cases also verified the widely held public sentiment that the abductions, enforced disappearances and unsolved murders in that period were perpetrated by individuals and organizations connected with the state.
The center also accuses the government of remaining ineffective with regard to preventing illegal acts during the dark era. The report states that although there were six prime ministers from 1991 through 2001, none of them took a major step to shed light on enforced disappearances and political murders, and they tried to ignore the cases.
The center released another report titled “Konuşulmayan Gerçek: Zorla Kaybetmeler" (The Unspoken Truth: Enforced Disappearances) on the same day as the report “Enforced Disappearances and the Conduct of the Judiciary,” during a press conference held on July 11. In this second report, the organization shares its details and data collected from families of victims of enforced disappearances and other witnesses.
One of the forced disappearance cases included in the report was the disappearance of a local in the Cizre district of Şırnak province, Ahmet Bulmuş, whose date of disappearance was reported in April 1994.
According to statements by eyewitnesses and family members, armed individuals took Bulmuş into custody in April 1994 in downtown Cizre. Two days after the incident, a team led by Cizre District Gendarmerie Commander Cemal Temizöz, who is under arrest as part of the case against Ergenekon -- a clandestine network charged with plotting to overthrow the government -- arrived at the Bulmuş family home, searched the home, threatened the family and reportedly told them Bulmuş was being detained and the family should not look for him. The report states that due to the climate of fear prevailing in Cizre at that time, the family could not file any petitions for investigation concerning the notification of detention.
The report shows JİTEM -- an illegal organization formed within the gendarmerie responsible for thousands of extrajudicial killings in the Kurdish-dominated Southeast in the 1990s -- as the major inner-state illegal structure responsible for the majority of forced disappearances. | 1,079 |

For the dupe system I believe you will only be able to use awakened SSR Android 17&18, so you will need to dokkan each of them once (if it's not twice).
In my opinion, none LR are worth elder kais. I don't like using kais on farmable SA cards even if they are hard to farm, but that's the point of LR cards.
You'd better keep your kais for Super Vegito or Black Rosé (he will come in less than 2 months). I mean, they need "only" 9 kais where LR needs 19!
Look a [this](https://dbz.space/cards/1008801-androids-17--18-limitless-energy) SA damage multiplier. At SA10 it's less than immense damage SA 10 (505%).
Each kai for immense damage SA represents 25% increased damaged.
For LR it's 5%.
Even if they have higher starting atk, it's not worth the kais.
**TL;DR** : No, LR are worth raising SA for free, not with Kais :p | 253 |
It's always such a relief to know that the Blues are a lock for the playoffs, isn't it? No more nailbiting, no more getting upset about every goal against - we can just watch the game tonight and enjoy it for what it is. Of course, the Blues still have something to play for: home ice advantage.
Then again, their home record this season is 13-8-1, and their road record is 14-9-1, so six of one, half dozen of the other.
No Barret Jackman tonight as he got hurt blocking a second period shot on Tuesday night, so Kris Russell is in. Jaroslav Halak isn't ready to start yet, but he miiiiight be on the bench behind Brian Elliott, which means that the playoff goalie intrigue starts early.
Jay Bouwmeester's going to the playoffs, while the rest of his old team that're in town tonight get to sit at home. This must be pretty bittersweet for him. Just kidding -- I'm pretty sure he's thrilled.
This is your morning open thread. Check back later for some Lighting the Lamp, a game preview, the GDT, and hopefully a celebratory "hey we beat a bad team and didn't play to their level!" recap. | 264 |

When it comes to Lewisville energy plans, there are a number of different factors that can affect your rates. Your location, the type of plan you choose, and even the time of year can all have an impact on your monthly bill. So what are some of the things that can cause your Lewisville energy rates to change? Let’s take a closer look.
– Your Location: One of the most significant factors affecting your electricity rates is your location. Lewisville electricity plans can vary depending on where you live within the city. For example, if you live in a more rural area, you may have access to different energy providers than someone who lives in the city. This can impact your rates because each provider has its own pricing structure.
– The Type of Plan: Another factor that can affect your Lewisville electricity rates is the type of plan you choose. Two main types of plans are available in Lewisville: fixed-rate and variable-rate. Fixed-rate plans offer a stable rate for the length of your contract, while variable-rate plans can fluctuate month-to-month.
– The Time of Year: Believe it or not, the time of year can also affect your Lewisville electricity rates. This is because energy demand typically increases during the summer months due to air conditioning usage. as a result, providers may raise their rates to keep up with the demand. However, you may be able to find lower rates during the winter months when demand is typically lower.
These are just a few of the things that can affect your electricity rates. By keeping these factors in mind, you can be sure that you’re getting the best deal and cheap electricity rates in Lewisville, Texas.
Comparing Lewisville electricity plans is necessary for finding the best deal for your home or business. But with so many options available, it can be challenging to know where to start. That’s why Energy Outlet is here to help! In this article, we’ll outline the steps you need to take in order to compare electricity plans and find the perfect one for your needs. So let’s get started!
The first step in comparing Lewisville electricity plans is to enter your zip code into our easy-to-use search tool. This will give you access to all of the available energy plans in your area.
Once you’ve entered your zip code, you’ll see a list of all the available energy plans in Lewisville. You can filter these results by rate, term length, or even green energy options. This makes it easy to find a plan that fits your needs and budget.
Once you’ve found a few interesting plans, it’s time to compare them side-by-side. This will help you determine the right plan based on your specific needs. You can compare things like rate, term length, green energy options, and more.
After you’ve compared all of the available plans, it’s time to select the perfect one for you. Click “sign up” on the plan you want, and we’ll help you get started. It’s that easy!
When choosing an electricity plan, one of the most important decisions is whether to sign up for a monthly or yearly contract. Both options have their pros and cons, so how do you decide which is right for you? Let’s take a closer look.
The bottom line is that it really depends on your specific needs and preferences. If you want more flexibility, a monthly contract may be your best option. However, a yearly contract may be the way to go if you’re looking for stability and lower rates.
Did you know you can choose an electricity plan supporting renewable energy? Lewisville providers offer a variety of green energy options, which means you can help the environment and save money at the same time!
Green energy is produced from renewable resources, such as wind, solar, or hydropower. This means that instead of relying on traditional sources like coal or natural gas, green energy comes from naturally replenished sources. This makes it a more sustainable option for the planet and helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
When you choose a green energy plan, your provider will generate or purchase renewable energy to match your usage. This helps reduce reliance on traditional energy sources and, in turn, helps preserve our natural resources. Additionally, many Lewisville providers offer incentives like bill credits or rewards points for choosing a green plan. So not only are you helping the environment, but you’re also getting rewarded for it! | 1,249 |
The "nerdy" or "ugly" girl who is, *gasp*, beautiful when she takes off her glasses, shakes out her hair, and puts on some lipstick. "Oh my god, we thought Susan was a hideous beast, but now that she's done these incredibly minor things to her appearance, she's the most beautiful girl in school!" I hope Susan had some up-to-date contact lenses lying around, or else she can't *see*. Glasses aren't just something girls wear to spitefully be ugly.
IRL, people just make passive-aggressive comments like "oh you're so pretty, if only you'd fix your hair/makeup/clothes/body weight to my preference....." | 154 |

I am super excited to share my review with you today for The Silent Wife by Karin Slaughter. Which is out.
My Thoughts
The Silent Wife which is book 10 in the Will Trent series. I am a massive fan of the author and every year I look forward to Karin’s latest novel. It is hard to believe that I have been reading Karin’s books for 20 years and this is her 20th book!
Like always Karin never disappoints and always gives the reader a gripping read that you wont be able to out down. The characters are well developed I feel like they are my friends after spending so many years with them.
I don’t want to give to much away with the plot. But fans are going to love it. I was sucked in from the very first page and taken on a roller coaster ride. When we follow a plot that is woven into the characters lives giving us answers to questions from the past. As we piece the puzzle together on the hunt for the killer.
The Silent Wife is an engaging, extremely addictive read that I couldn’t put down. I love everything about it.
This book speaks for itself, it is a must read!
Massive thank you to Anne Cater for a copy and for the blog tour invite.

I’m reading it now – So GOOD!!! Great review. | 457 |
In a world of bombastic trailer music, synthesized anvils, and pounding electronics, it is something of a relief to hear a piece of music that has been untouched by the jingoistic baton of the Media Ventures trend. This is not to say that I loathe the macho and dynamic style pioneered by Hans Zimmer; I can appreciate it as much as the next person. What I loathe is an industry that has made it its signature, no longer able to accept anything beyond this incessant pounding of masculinity. Delicate arpeggia and woodwinds get thrown by the wayside, replaced instead by mountains of brass chords and choppy string ostinati.
It would seem non-American composers have escaped this narrow-minded trend (up to this point, at the very least) and still manage to write scores that wouldn't feel out of place in a concert showcasing the works of Berlioz and Schubert. I have had the chance to review The Brothers Grimm and The Machinist, both of which harken back to an older Hollywood where the desire for subtle but solid orchestrations surpassed the need for brute force. Now comes Gabriel Yared's delicate and whimsical score to the Franco-German L'avion, firmly rooted in the Romantic tradition of unabashed orchestral beauty, with hints of Impressionism.
The film itself is the tale of a small boy forced to deal with his father's death when a plane model his father gave him comes to live and takes him on a series of fantastical adventures. It will thus come as a surprise to learn that Yared's score is very composed and does not launch itself into flights of fancy. Rather, he chooses to score the way a child would view the world, in a naive, touching way, with dense string writing, woodwind solos, and piano and harp. Yared brings forth a number of melodic ideas, none of them remarkably catchy, with the exception of the main theme heard in "L'ouverture" ("Overture") and a Chopin-esque waltz introduced in "Le printemps" ("Spring"). Yared has worked on a great number of European pictures and this Old Continent flair for precise orchestrations shows up in L'avion: the composer's palette is small but he knows how to make the most of it, crafting dreamy harmonies for the string ensemble and subtle, contrapuntal melodies for the flute, oboe, and bassoon. The recording, unlike the one for The Lord of the Rings, for instance, does not blend all instruments together but, rather, showcases each individual soloist and ensemble to produce a crystal-clear representation of the music.
"La météorite" ("The Meteorite") is a six-minute revisiting of the main themes and it doesn't get any more Romantic than this. The waltz is elaborated upon and I can honestly say the line between Classical music and film score gets blurred. Its second phrase, a twinkling dual-note theme on the piano's higher pitches, exudes playfulness and melancholy at the same time and is definitely a high point of the score as a whole.
Gabriel Yared's score to L'avion is a far cry from the Golden Age heroism he displayed in his rejected score to Troy; rather, it is a solid return to form that rarely shines but that displays a savoir-faire and mastery of the craft that some film music fans may long for. Its strengths lie in its orchestrations and its effectiveness and also this lulling Romantic dreaminess that is soothing after an hour of listening to militaristic anthems and high-pitched horns. L'avion is a great score to fall asleep to and I say this with praise.

Carbon steel and vinegar
In your experience, do acidic ingredients like vinegar really strip the patina from a carbon steel wok or pan? I like the idea of carbon steel cookware but also like to use vinegar in stir frys... My colleague has a Debuyer carbon steel frying pan and when I asked if he oils it after use/avoids cooking things like tomatoes in it he didn't know what I was on about, pan looked fine and he said it works a charm. Do I really need to take care of a carbon steel pan like the internet says I should? I wonder if many restaurants/street food places that use carbon steel do... | 135 |
SARAJEVO (Reuters) – European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen urged Bosnian leaders on Friday to work together to bring the country closer to membership of the European Union, after the bloc’s executive arm recommended it be granted EU candidate status.
“The door of the European Union is open, please seize the opportunity and use this invitation, and it is up to you now,” she told politicians and civil society activists during a visit to Sarajevo, a part of a tour of Western Balkan countries .
Over the past year, the Balkan country has been ending its gravest political crisis since the end of the war in the 1990s, torn between secessionist policies of its Serb leader Milorad Dodik and quarreled between Bosniaks and Croats over election rules.
The EU Council of Ministers is due to vote on its candidacy status in December even though analysts doubt Bosnia will be able to tackle necessary reforms by then, especially as new governments have yet to be formed after an Oct. 2 elections.

CLINICAL OUTCOMES OF INTRAVITREAL BEVACIZUMAB VERSUS PHOTODYNAMIC THERAPY WITH OR WITHOUT BEVACIZUMAB FOR MYOPIC CHOROIDAL NEOVASCULARIZATION: A 7-Year Follow-up Study
Purpose: To compare the long-term visual outcomes of intravitreal bevacizumab (IVB) with those of photodynamic therapy (PDT) for myopic choroidal neovascularization over a 7-year period. Methods: Eyes treated with IVB (17 eyes) or PDT (20 eyes) that were followed up for at least 7 years were included in this retrospective study. Myopic maculopathy was classified according to the international photographic classification before treatment. The best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and the chorioretinal atrophy (CRA) size were measured before and after treatment over a 7-year period. Results: The mean change in BCVA at 7 years was greater in the IVB group than in the PDT group (P = 0.044). While BCVA improved from baseline throughout the 7-year period in the IVB group (P = 0.029), there was no improvement in the PDT group (P = 0.266). In subgroup analysis for 18 eyes with preoperative tessellated fundi (Category 1), there was no difference in BCVA improvement (P = 0.166) and CRA size between the 2 groups at 7 years. However, for 17 eyes with preoperative diffuse CRA (Category 2), BCVA remained unchanged in the IVB group and decreased in the PDT group (P = 0.030) at 7 years. Conclusion: IVB resulted in superior long-term functional and anatomical outcomes compared with PDT. In particular, PDT resulted in a greater BCVA decrease and CRA increase compared with IVB in eyes with preoperative diffuse CRA. However, the clinical outcomes were not different in eyes with preoperative tessellated fundi. | 427 |

[Legal and animal welfare aspects of the killing of fish].
The selection of methods for killing fish is determined by the number of fish to be killed, their utilization and the existing laws. No regulations exist for killing non-food fish. The methods for killing food-fish, however, are stipulated in a regulation from 1936. Mechanical or electrical stunning is obligatory except for flatfish and eel. Single fish should be stunned by a blow on the head, followed immediately by slaughtering or bleeding to be sure that the fish is really dead. When larger numbers of fish should be killed for food production only electrical methods are allowed as alternative. Chemicals can be used for killing non-food fish, the non-pollutant destruction of dead fish and chemical-contaminated water, however, has to be guaranteed. The methods are discussed with respect to practicability and animal welfare. | 181 |
This week, the younger Rajapaksa, together with a singer, visited three leading national schools – Visakha Vidyalaya, DS Senanayake Vidyalaya and Sirimavo Bandaranaike Vidyalaya – with the permission of their principals. The visitors reportedly distributed promotional T shirts, sang and asked the students to dance. It was only at Sirimavo Bandaranaike Vidyalaya did they encounter any resistance. Several teachers and prefects reportedly objected to this irregular conduct and are now being threatened.
According to Iraj Weeraratne, the singer accompanying Rajapaksa fils, they faced no impediments at Sirimavo Bandaranaike Vidyalaya. Responding to a question by Ravaya, he says he sang the Cricket World Cup theme-song and just “two lines of the song ‘Sweety Menika’….the rest of the song was sung by the girls while dancing”[ii].
Were these the lines the singer sang to the girls, inside the school, in front of the principal, during school hours?
Taste is an individual matter. This song is probably popular. It is perhaps much sung even on school trips. Those are extrinsic issues. But is this the sort of song school children should sing, in school, during school hours, and in front of their principal?
What sort of principal would tolerate such conduct?
Carlton Sports Club, according to its own Facebook page, is the sports wing of ‘Tharunyata Hetak’[iv]. Tharunyata Hetak was set up by Namal Rajapaksa to create an entrée for himself into politics and to bolster his father’s rule. During the Presidential election of 2010, Tharunyata Hetak reportedly “reserved 4,616 TV slots and 2,245 radio slots”, to promote the candidacy of Mahinda Rajapaksa[v].
Tharunyata Hetak therefore is a non-governmental organisation with a partisan political agenda.
Namal Rajapaksa should never have been permitted to enter government schools, during school hours, to promote a non-state sports tournament organised by a politically partisan NGO. Execrable though his conduct is, young Mr. Rajapaksa is not the main culprit. Given the nature of the Rajapaksa agenda and the Rajapaksa ethos, one cannot expect any member of the Ruling Family to act with discipline, decorum or decency. Namal Rajapaksa was obviously doing what comes naturally to him.
Why did the three principals permit the visits, in gross violation of rules, norms and the best interest of their students? For instance, Mrs. Motwani, Mrs. Pullimood, Mrs. Jayasinghe, all their predecessors and most of their successors at Visakha would not have permitted such an incident, even if a refusal meant a punishment transfer, the loss of a job or worse. The craven conduct of the present principal of Visakha and the other two principals is symbolic of how far we have fallen, as a society.
Some of the teachers at Sirimavo Bandaranaike had objected to the visit and ordered the visitors out – reportedly. Why didn’t the teachers and the masters of the other two schools act in a similar manner? (I cannot think of a single teacher of my acquaintance, either at Visakha or elsewhere, who would have permitted such an outrage under their watch.) Their gross dereliction of duty, as guardians and guides of their pupils, is indicative of a society-wide moral and ethical abnegation.
Why aren’t parents objecting to their children being treated in this manner? Did the Minister of Education, permit this visit? Does this sort of visit happen, in less well known schools away from Colombo? Will the Opposition bring this up in parliament and demand an inquiry? What does the President, the self-anointed guardian of national morals, feel about the conduct of his firstborn?
More pertinently, why didn’t this story make banner headlines in the national media? The visits are not mere rumours; they have been confirmed by the visitors themselves. For instance, there is a picture of Namal Rajapaksa and Iraj Weeraratne with a group of Visakhians and a tweet which says ‘Thank you for the support extended’. Why did this headline news turn into total non-news nationally? What does this collective silence on the part of the national media say about media freedom and media culture in this country?
Abusive rulers cannot succeed without craven societies.
In February 2008, Carlton Sports Club held a car race, Carlton Motorcross, in Hambantota. It was organised by Namal Rajapaksa’s Tharunyata Hetak. Around 1,800 policemen and 800 soldiers were deployed to provide security to this extravaganza: “The highlight was the stalls that represented the military depicting their weaponry and achievement in the war against Tiger guerrillas. They were transported to the venue after being hurriedly dismantled from the Deyata Kirula exhibition”[vi].
Tharunyata Hetak is a non-governmental organisation. But the military acted as if it was a fully-fledged state entity. And this was when Gen. Sarath Fonseka was Army Commander. Sadly, like the principals of the three state schools, Gen Fonseka permitted this gross violation of rules and norms, if not laws, to happen. He allowed the Rajapaksas to use the national army under his command as their Praetorian Guard. Eventually, Gen. Fonseka and his entire family had to suffer the consequences of his willingness to permit the partisan politicisation of a national entity. When he became a political opponent of the Rajapaksas, the army treated him like a traitor to the nation.
Last year a provincial politician barged into a school and ordered the teacher who disciplined his child to kneel in front of the entire class. This week a key witness in the case was murdered and his body dumped in an abandoned well. Even the police admit that there might be a connection between the murder and the victim’s courageous willingness to testify against the powerful politician.
The politician thought he had a right to enter a government school and humiliate a teacher. That belief would have been sourced in two malaises which were always present in Lankan society but has assumed plague proportions under Rajapaksa Rule: the erosion of the lines of demarcation between the state and the rulers; and impunity.
The ruling family has set an example, treating state entities like private fiefs. Their minions are following suit. Namal Rajapaksa’s conduct will be noted by his acolytes and repeated, in an even more objectionable way, in other schools.
What happened at Visakha, DS and Sirimavo yesterday can happen in other schools tomorrow. L’affaire Namal is symbolic of the occupation of Lankan state and society by the Rajapaksas and the resultant erosion of independent/autonomous spaces and institutional decay.
A country with a degenerated educational system will produce not decent and honourable citizens but cowardly and self-serving automata, who will never ask why; just how much. That is how tyrannies and crime-hubs are made.
My advise is the entire Rajapaksa clan have to go to school again.
Starting right from the nursery is recommended.
Ego, Complex, Sickness, Jealousy, Moda-choon, Showoff, hatred, Greed and Anger etc etc etc are all due to lack of education.
I think his Father should take his MP Son to a good Doctor. Not the kind of Doctor like Dr. Mervin Silva. We suggest that he should take treatment from Good “Harak Weda” in Horana as this Guy always doing Harak Wada like having Night Car Races closing Colombo Roads, Having Night Car Races near Dalada Maligawa etc.
This is ver right.
His father should start the nursery when comparing with all the leaders sofar we had in lanken history.
No vision and wisdom is seen in MR admistration – these days, srilanka s advert on CNN makes me further clear that how many millions of dollars that the MR regime just wastes sometimes for no reason. It is said the millions that the regime wasted to have speeches written through advert companies in Washington are that much. It is all because not learnt and educated candidates are appointed to represent the nation there. What matters for MR regime is to appoint any low grade persons to do the job for them, so at the very basic step on, those who are aware, are well aware of they would end up with all problems rather than solving any of them.
” Puthe me Rajapakshe la rata kala nasthi korala thiyenne”. These Rajapakshes only destroyed the country.
.. and please add BIOLOGICAL needs! Like father like son? We call this playboy son an M.P. and a lawyer (synthetic)! Miracle of Asia!
Mike – Father and Son got thru those Law exams in a similar manner, refer Lapatiya’s comment below for further confirmation.
Its in the family.
Flycatcher – Please don’t suggest them Richmond/Ananda/Nalanda & STC.
Lets find something in the deep south, anyway they wouldn’t know the difference.
Did you NOTICE that the boy has unequal teeth in his lower jaw. This is unbelievable for a president son who creates all sound exposures by introducing NIGHT CAR RACES to lanken street corners – while not having a proper dentist to have his teeth made…. ? Not once several dozens of time, I happened to see this while Namal baby is on the stage all the way lying about their so called progress brought to the country.
We all like to put blame to moron Rajapakse son, and assume that rest of us are good people.. But what about all our Nanda, Mama Guruwarayas who ordered all their students (our children) to stop studies and go to main assembly room to hear Namal Ayya.?? . If Namal Ayya ask our Mama & Bappa Guras to send all our Nanda teachers to Namal’s room to give him foot massage, result would be the same.. Is low IQ Namal responsible for all this or is our spineless Mama & Nanda Guras who subject their children to these experiences have no responsibility here?
It’s not the spinelessness. Put yourself in the shoes of one of those teachers and think what would you have done. Would you be willing to gamble your job, your financial security, probably your life by standing against the son of a dictator. Nobody likes to be a victim of a political revenge. People have given the Rajapaksas an unthinkable power that nobody is willing to speak against the Rajapaksa will.
Will there be child abuse of the girls now?
May be he is readying a crop of young women when they grow up and become over 16 or 18, and become,e willing participants.
A game of rugby for the Future?
Why; Whats wrong with being gay?
Grow up and learn to respect all shades of society, immaterial of caste, creed, religion or sex. I don’t blame you but your parents for this twisted mindset of yours.Youd be better off joining Gandhasara and the BBS thughs who will teach you the real meaning of hatred.
Why; Whats wrong with being gay?
Nothing wrong. It is an observation. He goes to a GIRLS School to Promote RUGBY., NOT to a BOYS School. Had he gone to a Boys School, would not have commented on that. Boys play Rugby. Girls Mostly Play netball.
How Many Girls schools Play Rugby? How Many Girls Schools Play Rugby?
One Guy Killed the boyfriend of a foreigner, and finally after yeas in “Jail”.
It is the Monks who are Gay. They want Boys. Same with a good number of Catholic priests. They want boys too.
Why should the entire family go to school?
Fantastic read! Well presented argument. This is a dictatorship Sri Lankans live in, and this family will rule for years to come. It will be a fake democracy like Russia is. To rid the nation of one group of extremists (LTTE), we elected another equally deplorable group of conmen.
(A rough translation would read – My dark naughty girl Sweetie Menika, I am here and I want kisses).
My Elders tell me that as far as they remember The Gypsies never ever invaded any schools to promote their music.
Well, there you are. Fonseka, Rajapakse, Karu etc etc makes no difference. All corrupt, power hungry rogues.
How can you compare Karu, SF with Rajapaksches ?
Give us the list of speeches that Rajapakshe has given to international media since the war is no longer there ?
If CBK or any other leaders were in office, all tthese would have fallen in other lines in favour of the future of the nation. Now I still remmeber the way how world communities supported the country, nation, immediately after Monstorous Tsunami wave destructed the country in 2004. Even if Rajapakshes embazzzeled the sums, all these huge sums came in due to the foreign relationship that the CBK administration under the great lead of former FM late FM kadirgamar. Latter levels are not at all comparable to any of the comparable statistics in today s politics.
You wanna know how CBK bought Prince Andrews castle? Ask Mangala.
what the hell areu talking man. if i am blind I would have heard them… .. please give us evidence.. dont try to become one another VIctor iwan who has only fabricated the stories to attack CBK. All that live in london know how good the Rajapakshe could turn it if they want to attack anyone. In today s context… WE ARE ALL BECOMING CLEAR.. that CBKs adminstriation was much more democratic than that of the incumbent who raised the head from that low grade society. Alone the fact if one would see it clearly, not giving any kind of interview to the world press but doing all kind of criminal acts, not telling the truth to the nation ( that i refer here are the rural folk that make up 70% of the poverty stricken nation).
What is wrong for Na-Mole Baby to goes to Girls Schools to promote Rugby as his Farther also very famous for giving Private Tuition to young Girls in Rest Houses during 1970 to 1977. Therefore it should be ok as he is real son of Mahinda Rajapaksha.
My personal opinion is Na-Mole baby should have given that task of promoting Rugby to his brother Rocket Rohitha as Na-Mole Baby should have undertaken to give Law lessons to Girls in all leading Girls Schools in the Island as he has the through knowledge of the Law. Great Lawyers like Dr. Kolvin R. De Silva, Hon. Weeramanthri, Hon. Romesh De.Silva, Hon. Sumanthiran are nothing in front of Our Na-Mole Baby as he got 100 out of 100 in his Law Exams and he is the Current record holder. Some says Law Collage Principal Rodrigo given the Answers for Na-Mole Baby, but don’t believe them as some says Jayaraj Fernandofulle write for his Father’s Law exam.
Also our Na-Mole Baby has every right to go wherever he needs as his Father and Baappa has liberated our Country from the Terrorists.
PS-Our Salute to Girls Students and brave Teachers in Sirimavo Bandaranayaka Vidyalaya for Chasing out this “Ambaruwa” from the School.
When this Ambaruwa closing Colombo Roads and having Night Car races no body had the Guts to oppose it.
When the Same Ambaruwa having Night Car races in Kandy near Dalada Maligawa our Chief Prelates were silent.
All 3 forces Commanders and top ranking officers, Head of STF, IGP and Police Dept. Heads, Election Commissioner, Supreme Court and other Judges, So Called Journos, Senior Ministers, Opposition Leaders and all the top post holders, take these brave Girls and Teachers as example and refuse to carryout Illegal orders activities. This is clear indication that Regime time is over and their days are numbered.
All 3 forces Commanders and top ranking officers, Head of STF, IGP and Police Dept. Heads, Election Commissioner, Supreme Court and other Judges, So Called Journos, Senior Ministers, Opposition Leaders and all the top post holders, will go against these brave Girls and Teachers for refusing to carryout Illegal orders activities.
It’sad to say that all the pricipals of those shchool should go to shcool again,if not entire family of the president should go to shcool.Hon, Ministry of education what would you think about this?
Minister of Education too will trail them to school. “Baa Baa Black Cheap have you got a fool, yes Sir, yes Sir, three big fools, One is my Master, the other one has only hay, But none like the dicky boy who hunts on hoochies.
What discipline, decorum or decency they have???????.
THE patrons of heroine businesses and The Maniac Rapists, this Ruling Jarapassa family Knows Only what they learn from Goons and thugs, Now they are on Rampage with power.
Both the Ministers of education are real buffoons and living a month spending only with Rs 2500.
So how can we expect discipline, decorum or decency from Those political vultures.
Look at that picture. Just how many of those naughty Kalu Kelles are dying to give him an Umma Umma. And he sure does have those Umma Umm-ble cheeks.
… but this bugger lacks the Umma Umma teeth. Bugger should get his teeth fixed before he thinks of getting into wedlock. Moron!
His teeth seem ok but I think he needs a nose job. Too big like a Jambu.
… I agree. He looks more like a Malay (no offence to the community). It appears this bugger is giving everybody some food for thought???
Rocket Rohitha – Promoting Rocket Science technology.
Gunadasa Amarasekara – Promoting/Selling Jaathi Aalaya.
Did Ranil say that all Rajapaksha brothers put together will not pass G.C.E. (A/L) or (A/L), I am not sure. We may have to add in,their off springs as well, I guess.
If the un-ruling family had a semblance of regard for education, they would not have allowed girls schools to be turned into night club atmosphere that too during school hours. What a student motivational line of lyrics in the song. These uneducated barbarians want to transform our beautiful island into a pariah state void of intellectuals and learned men and women. All they need is a militarized masses to sing hosannas to these pariahs.
Over to you Banda and all other boot lickers of this pariah regime. The floor is wide open to you, come and dance with nudity, that too would not be a distant dream, the way things are going on in our Miracle of Asia.You guys together with your unruly MARA & CO, are a disgrace to our Nation, which had such high moral standards and cultural values.
You fellows will really rot in hell, if there is one and definitely will pay for your crimes before your deaths, as well. That is the norm of natural justice.
To be precise RW Referred to O/L, which is true.
None of them passed Math.
The joke is we are the only country in the world with a Finance Minister who didn’t even get an ordinary pass for Math.
Urban Development Minister – Wimal Weerawansa – Studied up to O/L and only the Minister who has not gone to Seegiriya.
90% of the other ministers and Dy. Ministers are also has the same qualifications.
Our prince Charming among a sea of Kalu Kelles. Who do you pity more, the Kalu Kelles for their unattaractiveness or the Prince for his lack of choice? In the end, Carlton Sports Club is the winner.
History is littered with the progeny of leaders who have taken their lead from a father who has shown the way – Saddam and Gaddafi to name the most recent. Rajapakse is now ready to be inducted into this Hall of Infamy.
“””What sort of principal would tolerate such conduct?””” One who puts self-preservation above principles and better judgement.
Do you think they are going to jeopardise their position and stand-out against the Principal on this?
This is just the sort of instance where a vigilant political opposition should raise hell; even educationists and other independent observers. But times are such that it seems everybody cowers these days not wanting to stand out. (And don’t even ask about our local laptop media).
Namal and his louche friends and accomplices are not the only offspring of the ruling regime running riot in these times. As you have written Tisaranee. The template for the future of our country is being developed today before our very eyes.
God help Mother Lanka.
Somebody should tell this upstart that it is better to let people think you are a donkey than to go about proving it.
Tisaranee is one brave journo we have. Sure wish others pen their writing in a similar manner.
What is wrong with our Sinhala Buddhist Balika girls singing Kalu Menike?.
Daughters s of the Intelligentsia, the Elite and the Anglicans who go to International Schools, Ladies Colleges and and top end Christian schools always listen to Justin Beiber, when their parents enjoy the evenings in a one of those hip Night Clubs in Colombo or relax at home with a Michael Bubble cD..
Our Sinhala Buddhist girls don’t have those luxuries, Neither the time after attending tuition classes to learn what the teachers leave for the Tuition masters.
Picking on these innocent children and try to depict them as bad Namal supporters ain’t going to win any votes for the Rainbow Club.
Ranil and his Rainbow is apparently in dire straits, according to the ace political analyst Dr Dayan.
The thinking ones may even envisage the Rainbow factions , with previous affiliation with terrorists, forming their individual Militias to do an Iraq or Libya if Sobitha succeeds in demolishing the president to give Ranil and his corruptible and corrupted cabinet to look after the inhabitants.
Ms T obviously can’t be on a performance bonus. as part of the package.
Like for Mervyn Silva. Eat it, do not think that we will!
This picture shows candidly where Sri Lanka is heading. The girls are all in smiles and eagerly participating in the photo shoot. When you look at the picture it does not say that principals should not have allowed the Political Tamasha. I am sure the girls (and boys of other skools)had prior notice of vvIP Visit.
No matter the debt trap warnings are ringing from multiple different quarters, no matter rising COL, no matter in spite of war has ended a dream of better life is not realized or in sight of sheer size of corruption taking place.
In reality these smiling faces is a reflection of Sri Lankan voter. This is how they go to the poling station. Once the voting carnival is over they will start complaining. The loop continues.
One of the witness (4th witness) to kneel down saga is found dead in a well.
Sadly this is level of intelligence of our fellow citizens.
” BOYS ARE BOYS”. The question is asked: “Why the Principals allowed entry to the schools?’ In return I must ask: Are there Principals and Teachers in schools now a days? Those were the days long gone. Now we have Principals and Teachers “taught” to dance to the tune of Politicians and if they take a “wrong” step, what the future for them is unpredictable. So “best” road to success is to “KNEEL DOWN” and spend the time stipulated in school and dash to the “Tuition Class” to make a living. Also asked: “What parents are doing”?. You, Tisaranee is way out of the reality. The parents know that school is not the place to learn anymore. They need only a “stamp” record of attendance. For them the “REAL SCHOOL” is the TUITION CLASS. So why worry so much of these “Politicians” entering schools. After all they are “elected” by the people and they have every right to be anywhere they will and want.
When they grow up the politicians can climb on them They will be properly trained for body contact. No need to keep chasing Women Tourists.
Gota has reservation on what Namal does, as he believes that they are nothing but juvenile and counter productive, compared to his beautification of Towns. Yet he stays quiet without comment because Gota reaps best of Namal’s actions and believes it will be a thing of the past once he secures power as head of State. MR sees otherwise, that allowing Namal to build the ‘Nil Balakaya’ and this Carlton Rugby will enable him to have a political base, until MR is ready to hand over power to Namal. However will this political base of Namal be strong enough to withstand Gota’s Military Machine the day he takes over? Interesting times are ahead to this Nation of naivetes.
Both Gota and Mara will end up in Hague on war crimes pretty soon.
No point of dreaming of Military machines or next President post.
No point in lamenting and crying foul ! After all we know who these Pakses are at least now. The only thing people can and must do is to get rid of these Pakse clan and all goon guys. Vote them out lock stock and barrel. Do not depend on the so called lame duck and disoriented bunch of good for nothing ‘opposition’. Change, that’s what necessary now, before it’s way too late. Act fast, time is running out.
This is an outrage. There is no point blaming the principals considering what happened to the witness who testified in the case against Wayaba parliamentarian recently.
but for you still MR is the man for the moment?
Yes, MR is the least unsuitable candidate among MR, SF, CBK, RW, …. If those in the opposition would do their job properly, these things will not happen. When the opposition leader cannot do his job in the opposition, how can we expect him to do his job if elected president? For all I can see he is too busy coming up with a ruse to skip the election this time around as well! The man won’t even contest the election and you expect me to vote for him? I’m yet to see RW or UNP launching a mass agitation against killing of that witness! Do they expect us to give them the job of governing the country just because MR is unsuitable for the job?
If you still think being a person having access to internet that MR is the man for SL it explains why SL is doomed.
what exactly do you expect Ranil to do in opposition? You tell that Ranil is not doing anything as opposition leader. what do you expect him to do?
Actually the problem with MR is he is doing the WRONG things. Even doing nothing is better than doing wrong things.
Lets look at MR in two ways one as SL president and other as a sinhala leader.
As a sinhala leader what has he done for sinhala people?
Sinhala youth are getting killed in protests, sinhala youth is destroyed by MR funded drug mafia and he destroys everything that sinhala people hold as important.
Since MR began his 2nd termin 2010 look at the number of ADDITIONAL problems MR has brought to this country. SL doesnt have a stable future now even worse than war period.
Take BBS example. MR is creating a non existant issue in this country. If he had even a brain of mustard seed size he would not support BBS. Now SL has additional problems thanks to MR that is ignoring the huge civil conflict we have been facing for 30 years.
And how about economy? can any MR follower ever say with a straight face economy is doing good in SL? How do you expect SL to face challenges with such a weak economy further weakened by MR policies and wastages, corruption?
Look at the diplomatic disasster MR has brought SL into.
To understand the low level SL has been dragged into one can easily look at the Cartoon issue. I have no problem with cartoons making fun of JLolita. But SL gov should have the intelligence to understand where it fits. Publishing such a thing in an official website and then tendering apologies one after the other. What a shame!
Now as India is cosying with MR, MR is cutting down Pakistan and getting bold on muslim issues. MR is destroying a significant ally of us.
MR even at this moment has created problems that did not exist in SL before to create havoc in SL, economically weakened SL, a foriegn affairs disaster, got a war crimes investigation because of its stupidity. In other words MR has made this country knelt down in front of the world. That too without money.
By the way, have you forgotten how Ranil Wickramasinghe once invited some school students in uniform on stage and had the students dance to baila music during one of his election meetings a few years ago? RW was seen clapping on stage while the students still in uniform danced on right in front of him!
If I remember correct, the incident took place some where in the western province and this is perhaps the same meeting where he assured students that they will get gold chains and bracelets under his administration … perhaps this spoilt brat Namal got this idea from the opposition leader himself — another good for nothing spoilt brat if you ask me!
were the baila songs were of such nasty meanings?
Did ranil go inside a school and did that?
Do girls Play Rugby? What is the purpose of the Visit? Is it to Promote Future Cheer girls for Rugby?
Oh… no … no… You people don’t understand. Actually this is called “Bed Rugby” . This guy is only good at this like his Father. Otherwise what the f.ck he is doing in Girls Schools? to promote what?
What else could you expect from these Rajapakse uneducated, uncultured and uncivilised MKRs, Tsunami Alibabas, synthetic lawyer and a grade eight passed policeman as Speaker in the house.
Going to Girls schools to promote Rugby while giving away T shirts and a cronic Rap Dancer encouraging Girls to dance during school hour is hilarious.
These uneducated fake bastar.s do not know anything else in life other than having Night races, night clubs and show off Lamborghinis to the world to get cheap exposure.
CHOGM after spending Billions of Rupees became a disaster in Sri Lanka’s history, where the Joker now cannot even represent anywhere as it’s head. He even skipped Glasgow CW games than to face humiliation. How many more CW events he is going to skip for the next two years as it’s head is the million Dollar question. Canada suspended Millions of Dollars of contribution to CW for the next two years because of an uneducated, childish, Charlie Chaplin became as it’s head.
When there are so many Boys schools in Colombo, going to girls schools to promote Rugby is anybodys guess. Third grade A..H… looking for cheap publicity.
Nero playing fiddle when the Rome is burning. Rajapakses end of era is near.
All I could say is …….Like Father like Son. Father carrying and hugging small children while son baby sitting girls. Happens only in Sri Lanka.
Another Great article by Tisaranee. Cheers.
Namal Rajapaksa’s should realize that his attempt at being accessible, down to earth, and being another young man, not a lot older than the students themselves did not go well here. There is a cultural gap here and he should not try to bridge it this way. Most Sinhalese children are rather conservative and singing popular songs, dancing, etc. are not going to work for them.
Namal should rather try other avenues to endear himself. Why not use a hike, volunteer work to uplift poor Sinhalese villages, or something like that? After a hard days work and solid networking the students who voluntarily participate in such events may join in a song and dance.
Political brats cost more to the state and people in terms of security and logistic than the service that benefits the people.
Namal brat went to a school couple of years ago to declare it open after renovation. He invited himself for the occasion. The entire school was repaired and renovated by donations. The ceiling alone cost more than Rs 50,000. Few hours before his arrival his advance party arrived and pulled down part of the ceiling as usual security procedure.
Namal baby brought some pencils, rubbers, papers to the children.
The children and school would have been better off without his visit. The principal once again went with his begging bowl to raise finances to mend the ceiling from well wishers.
The schools are better off without these spoilt political brats.
Reading Tisaranee’s well written piece -as always – this is what came to my mind – as a past Visakhian of the Pulimood era I believe Mrs. Susan George Pulimood our graceful lady who always dressed modestly and carried herself with dignity and decorum must surely be turning in her grave – she would not stand this nonsense – whatever the consequences. Well, discipline has deteriorated – and the principals who came after her went down a few steps at a time – the earlier ones were close to Mrs.Pulimoods status but there were others later who even wore sleeveless cut-away blouses with the saree and then there were others of the hot-pot variety. At a Pulimood oration I attended the Principal at the time looked so sub-standard and her diction was atrocious. So it is no surprise that the present school heads are those like the ones who just sat and looked while the loku baba and the sindu guy played havoc within the walls of the schools. Strange that comments have not touched on this aspect of the drama.

NASAA: "happy birthday bitcoin, but you're still too risky"
The North American Securities Administrators Association (NASAA) has marked the 10th anniversary of bitcoin by releasing a video about the risks of cryptocurrency-related investments.
Bitcoin may have just turned 10, but according to the securities regulator, investors need to be aware of the risks involved before "jumping in" and should not rely on "media hype" when considering investing in virtual currencies.

<issue_start><issue_comment>Title: Sceduler modularity and redesign
username_0: Currently the scheduler is monolithic and is (effectively) limited to assigning tasks from the feeder shared memory generated by transitioner. Only few projects are comfortable with pre-generated tasks. Some projects could benefit from:
* on-demand task generation and
* more customized work assignment
For this reason, I decided to re-design the scheduler to be modular - either dlopen loading feeder plugins, or IPC to running feeders. Additionally, the database schema for workunits and results will be redesigned.
Building block: Queue:
Project can define multiple queues with priorities. Each queue has a feeder name and arguments associated to it. Scheduler weights the queues by priority and then sequentially asks their associated feeders to assign tasks to the host, until enough work has been assigned or there is no more. Users should be able to influence the selection of queues (opt-in, opt-out, priority).
Building block: Feeder:
A feeder acts as a plugin to the scheduler, either in-process in for of dlopened shared library, or separate process accesible via IPC (unix-domain sockets, most likely). Job of the feeder is to assign appropriate tasks to the requesting host, obeying the host's hardware capabilities.
Workunit feeder:
This feeder will be designed to replace the standard assignment of jobs to hosts. The wu-feeder will select workunit from the database, based on some configured criteria, and assign it. In this sense, it takes part of the role of a transitioner.
<issue_comment>username_1: Let me know if you get this done before we do.
<issue_comment>username_0: This does not have to be a competition.
<issue_comment>username_0: Without #2 , doing the out-of-process plugin is going to be hard, so we can postpone that. In-process has the disadvantage that segfault in the plugin will crash, or corrupt the scheduler. What needs to be done:
1. remove references to `ssp` and database from the SCHEDULER_REQUEST parsing call tree
2. Pick either request or response object to hold all the shit that is needed and pass it around instead of global variables.
3. reconcile request handling method, so it only calls various handlers (eg: auth handler, result handler)
4. make `send_work()` work and simultaneously create the feeder interface (built-in, no dlopen, no schema changes)
5. Then we can asses situation and decide on further steps (dlopen? schema change?)
<issue_comment>username_0: Automatic Testing: doing unit tests without dependency injection in c++ is quite a headache so let's skip this and go to integration testing. For a test run, we need a local mysqld instance, a minimal database dump and pair of files holding the request and expected reply. Unless a ready made solution shows up, a shell script to load the database, invoke scheduler and compare the output files could be all that's needed.
<issue_comment>username_0: With 429f257900bf1d the points 1-3 are done and it passes the one very simple test case. Now we need to create the feeder interface. I am thinking that the feeder can be an abstract c++ object, with a single method - `feed(sreply)`. It has access to the whole scheduler response and request and should "take the cut" - subtract how much it assigned from what the client requested. | 806 |
Well into the grunge and alternative movement, 1993 was the time for the big Seattle bands to release follow-ups and for a number of bands to offer debuts. It was a year of pretty darn great rock and pop albums, a few one-hit wonders of note and a huge year for female-led rock.
Giving a big middle finger to the albums that made them famous, Nirvana and Pearl Jam released In Utero and Vs. to big sales and somewhat confused audiences. Trying to reclaim the spirit of the band before the fame, Nirvana's harsh, difficult album forced the listener to love or hate it, no middle ground. Pearl Jam put an angry punk spin on their sound, easing off the big-hearted moodiness of Ten for a more raw, personal approach.
The Smashing Pumpkins, building on their little-heard 1991 debut, served up Siamese Dream, which became a touchstone of the alt-rock movement and has some listeners saying, years later, that it is still better than Nevermind. Other alternative highlights included Blur's Modern Life Is Rubbish, Brad's Shame, Candlebox's debut, the Breeders' "Cannonball," Cracker's "Low," Seven Mary Three's "Cumbersome" and Mazzy Star's plaintive "Fade Into You." The Tragically Hip also put out the solid Fully Completely, Urge Overkill offered up "Sister Havana" and the Flaming Lips Transmissions From The Satellite Heart. Other debuts included Counting Crows' August And Everything After, Collective Soul's Hints, Allegations And Things Left Unsaid and Radiohead's Pablo Honey.
Women ruled much of the year. Melissa Etheridge made a big splash by admitting her sexuality on Yes I Am, but Sheryl Crow topped it with the very good Tuesday Night Music Club, which went on to win several Grammies despite accusations over the songwriting credits. Liz Phair also offered Exile In Guyville, an ambitious and daring record, Ace Of Base had the smash The Sign, the Cranberries debuted with Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can't We? and Sarah McLachlan broke through with Fumbling Towards Ecstasy.
In ‘80s holdover news, Aerosmith went ahead and released Get A Grip anyway. Much to the chagrin of longtime fans, the album's four soundalike ballads ("Crazy," "Cryin'," etc.) all got MTV airplay and created legions of new female fans. Duran Duran came back to life with a second eponymous disc and the excellent "Come Undone" and "Ordinary World," Depeche Mode offered the fine Songs Of Faith and Devotion and U2 put out Zooropa, an offbeat little electronic pop disc. Oblivious to all trends, Jimmy Page united with Whitesnake singer David Coverdale for Coverdale/Page, and against all odds, it was a darn good CD, if out of step with the times. Lenny Kravitz also offered his best song, "Are You Gonna Go My Way," from the album of the same name, Guns ‘N’ Roses called it a day after released their covers album The Spaghetti Incident and Meatloaf returned out of nowhere with Bat Out of Hell II and "I'd Do Anything For Love (But I Won't Do That)."
In pop music, Mariah Carey continued her dominance with "Hero," Bryan Adams had a hit with "All For Love," Janet Jackson bared her soul (and other things) on janet, Billy Joel released his final studio release with River Of Dreams and Phil Collins offered the serious Both Sides. Of course, no ‘90s year would be complete without one-hit wonders, and 1993 had a few of them, such as "Whoomp! There It Is," "Informer," the hated "Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm," "Bad Boys" (from the show COPS), "What Is Love" and, of course, "I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)."
Hip-hop, still reeling from Dr. Dre's The Chronic the year prior, didn't have as much to offer, but notable releases included Snoop Dogg's downright friendly (for gangsta rap) Doggystyle, the Wu-Tang clan dropped 36 Chambers and A Tribe Called Quest offered Midnight Marauders. Less popular yet very good albums included Black Moon's Enta Da Stage and Souls of Mischief's 93 'Til Infinity. Even De La Soul had some fun with Buhloone Mindstate, a departure from their first two records and Cypress Hill had its biggest hit with "Insane In The Brain." | 972 |
Interesting. Early programs/imprints are indeed powerful.
I’ll add on to this theory with some theories of my own. Perhaps sensitive children are more susceptible to this sort of indoctrination. By sensitivity, I mean thoughtfulness, conscientiousness, and responsiveness to their environment.
Both my friend and I are highhhh in trait sensitivity.
Meanwhile, I know other people who grew up in the same church environment as me, listening to the same sermons preached on the pulpit, who weren’t all that affected by the indoctrination. They still attend church, and they seem like normal people.
I feel like sensitive types are more likely to take sermon messages seriously — an extension of our philosophical conscientiousness. So if the pastor preaches a convincing message on God’s wrath, we’re more likely to absorb and internalise that on a deeper level. Others might not care as much about the implications.
That said, we’re probably also more sensitive to inconsistencies/ hypocrisy/ paradoxes, and less willing to brush them off. That’s when the inner conflict starts. | 239 |
