The EU is firmly committed to the absolute prohibition of capital punishment, torture or other cruel inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment. The prevention and eradication of all such treatment or punishment worldwide is at the heart of the European Union’s human rights policy. The absolute ban on capital punishment and all forms of torture is enshrined in core UN human rights conventions, as well as on the EU level in the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights.
To help to prevent EU involvement in violations of human rights in third countries, the Council of the European Union adopted in June 2005 Regulation (EC) No 1236/2005 concerning trade in certain goods which could be used for capital punishment, torture or other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment ('Regulation').
The Regulation prohibits exports and imports of goods which have no practical use other than for the purpose of capital punishment or torture. It also imposes controls on exports of certain goods which could be used not only for the purpose of torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment, but also for legitimate purposes.
Some years ago, the European Commission became aware that certain medicinal products exported to third countries had been diverted and used for capital punishment. Consequently, in December 2011 the European Commission decided to amend the list of goods subject to the export controls to cover sodium thiopental and similar substances used in lethal injections in countries where the death penalty is still applied. In response the European pharmaceutical industry has begun to apply their own measures to ensure that medicinal products, including non-listed ones, will not be used for the death penalty. These measures have made it difficult for the authorities of third countries to procure medicinal products for capital punishment.
In July 2014, the Commission published new lists of goods subject to the trade restrictions. Some descriptions of goods were broadened and new goods were added. As a result exports and imports of e.g. bar fetters, restraint chairs, certain whips and cage and net beds are now prohibited. New export controls were imposed on spit hoods, electric discharge (shock) weapons that cover a wide area and equipment for the dissemination of incapacitating or irritating chemical agents covering a wide area.
The European Commission started a process to review Regulation (EC) No 1236/2005 in its entirety, responding in particular to a Resolution of the European Parliament of 17 June 2010. In spring 2012, the European Commission issued a call for applications with a view to establishing a Group of Experts to assist it with this review. From July 2012 to July 2013, the Group of Experts met six times in Brussels with relevant Commission services.
In January 2014, following a comprehensive review exercise led by Service for Foreign Policy Instruments (FPI), the Commission adopted a Proposal for amending the Regulation. This proposal has been discussed in the European Parliament and the Council under the ordinary legislative (co-decision) procedure.
The European Parliament and the Council reached a political agreement on amendments to this proposal in a trilogue meeting on 24 May 2016. Following the vote in the European Parliament, the changes should now be approved by the Council of the European Union and then the text amending the Regulation will be published in the Official Journal of the EU and become Union law.
It adjusts the definition of other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment in the light of case-law of the European Court of Human Rights.
It provides that exports to countries that are parties to international conventions on capital punishment will be covered by a general authorisation. This will apply only if the conditions that the goods are not re-exported to other countries and that the country of destination has abolished the death penalty for all crimes are met.
It imposes a ban on the brokering of goods that are subject to an import and export ban, as listed in Annex II(goods that can only be used for torture or capital punishment), so as to cover transfers of goods that are not located in the EU.
It introduces a prior authorisation regime for the supply of technical assistance concerning goods listed in Annex III or IIIa. The supply of technicalIt prohibits transport of goods in transit if they are listed in Annex II, III or IIIa. It should be noted that the prohibition concerning goods listed in annex III or IIIa is not absolute but applies where the economic operator has some information about their use for torture or capital punishment in the country of destination.
It prohibits the promotion at exhibitions and trade fairs in the EU and the advertising of goods listed in Annex II.
It establishes a coordination group, which will serve as a platform for Member State experts and the European Commission to exchange information on administrative practices. The group will also discuss questions of interpretation, developments and implementation of the Regulation.
It provides for an urgency procedure in case rapid amendment of the Regulation's annexes is necessary, e.g. when new goods enter the market.

Then 810nm diode laser was used for inferior turbinated ablation. Another words the tumor was slowly burned out by IR laser. This method shows very good absorption of hemoglobin and ideal coagulation performance. Bleeding and pain was minimal during operation.
Laser treatments are dangers and we are not prosceliting it as very simple treatment. But in comparison to chemotherapy and radiation it is much more safe and without secondary consequences. IR lasers used for the treatment of wrinkles before, but there energies were much lower and it was not an ablation process. | 2019-04-21T12:32:06Z | https://luminatek.com/newsinfo/reviews/semiconductor-laser-treat-chronic-rhinitis-under-nasal-endoscope.html |

Bronze turkeys are the traditional American breed of turkey. They get their name from the metallic green-bronze colour of their feathers.
They produce a better meat-to-bone ratio than white turkeys, and are considered to be tastier. They have a dense, rich flesh which is marbled with fat so they baste from the inside out. | 2019-04-26T02:01:48Z | http://www.caspiancaviar.co/Turkey-Supplier.html |
Though far from flawless, Disney's Fantasia has earned the status of "classic" over the past 60 years, a quality left intact over time maybe because the franchise was never fully exploited. Fantasia was originally intended to be a constant work in progress, meant to return to the screens every few years with new sequences incorporated, but subsequent installments never materialized. Fantasia 2000 is the belated "sequel," and though the concept remains the same, Disney has changed. The company is less a paragon of family entertainment and more a paragon of international corporate marketing, its annual animated releases well-timed advertisements for companion soundtracks and toys. The pattern at least temporarily improved in 1999, however, first with the surprisingly strong (and virtually song-free) Tarzan, then with the refreshingly adult Toy Story 2, and now with Fantasia 2000, a largely faithful return to the simple pleasures of sound and vision expressed by its predecessor. Shot for IMAX (with a conventional theatrical run planned), Fantasia 2000 combines seven new animated sequences with seven new classical pieces, with the beloved "The Sorcerer's Apprentice" the sole remnant of the old Fantasia. Yet the animators seem to have taken great care to recall Disney's classic style of animation: Though Fantasia 2000 is loaded with computer imagery, the flashy stuff is nicely integrated into more conventional scenery. Gracefully rendered whales soar across the night sky to the strains of Ottorino Respighi's "Pines Of Rome," while a one-legged tin soldier defends a ballerina from a truly ghoulish Jack In The Box in a sequence set to Shostakovich and based on a Hans Christian Anderson story. Donald Duck stars as Noah's assistant, asked to gather animals to the ark while Edward Elgar's "Pomp And Circumstance" plays on, the sole bit of comic relief other than some yo-yoing flamingos goofing to Saint-Saens. Stravinsky (whose prehistoric "Rite Of Spring" sequence was an old Fantasia highlight) supplies "The Firebird," which is matched to a mesmerizing, mythic tale of nature and rebirth. The weak link is an oddly realized bit inspired by cartoonist Al Hirshfield and set to Gershwin's "Rhapsody In Blue"; the squiggly representation of New York doesn't fill the screen well, and the human protagonists lack the charm and wonder of their more abstract co-stars. (Angular, colorful shapes interacting to Beethoven have more character.) The same can be said for the celebrity cameos that introduce each segment: The movie stands on its own pretty well, making the commentary extraneous if not fully distracting. At 75 minutes, however, Fantasia 2000 is short enough to captivate the kids and mature enough to draw in adults, making it one of Disney's more successful recent stabs at universal entertainment. | 2019-04-23T16:35:46Z | https://film.avclub.com/fantasia-2000-1798192409 |
Today was a big day of my life. A day that taught me many important life-lessons. In recent times there have been too many frustrating moments that I had somewhat forgotten what unadulterated happiness felt like.
It happened after a very long time, but when it did all I could feel was gratitude. I had been contemplating about it from a long time. Countless worries about my career moves and eager wait for the moment when I’ll begin receiving pay-checks seemed to have robbed me of my peace. It’s not the haste to build a bank balance for my future, neither it is the thirst to acquire money to spend on my aspirations. It is all about securing the future for my daughter.
After a lot of thought, I have come to believe that for me getting a job at the earliest is necessary to patch up the gaping hole of the break in my career. In today’s competitive world, breaks in career need to be dealt with cleverly and quickly before they break you. The lowered self-confidence and prospering self-doubt whether I can be at par of the racing times in my current situation seems to cloud my mind each time I am looking for a job.
Let’s get back to the original topic and pause other issues to refrain from diluting my feelings. Someone distantly known to us, gifted us with a favor that’ll (I pray that it does) go a long way to help me in more ways than one. Though I was at the receiving end of the favor, I couldn’t help but think that I need to create opportunities to give back the goodness I experienced today.
I can feel the same surge of enthusiasm as I had felt when I was a fresh graduate and wanted to change the world with the power of my newly acquired knowledge. As compared to then, though my energy levels have gone down by many notches, I can still feel the empowering desire to give back the goodness to the world and it’s people just the way I experienced it.
The happenings of today only strengthened my faith that happy times haven’t forgotten me completely. I wish, someday I too have the power to help someone experience great relief and joy by my actions. I want to do my due to add to the pool of goodness that touches everyone’s lives. Something inside me tells me that such time is fast approaching my way.
Excellent. Giving a surprise gift to someone, when they are least expecting, is therapeutic. I wrote a similar post (my personal experience) in February 2010. Will you the link by email to you.
Just wanted to say that you ALREADY have ‘added to the pool of goodness that touches lives’. With your writing- on this blog!
And yes, wishing you loads more happiness!
I love your attitude… !
All the best ME…hope things fall in place for you..
Glad to know that things are turning better. Soon it will all seem like a bad dream .
Glad to see this post!!
And yes there are more and more happy times ahead too!
This song has been one of my favourite songs too ..
I pray you get all that you want and reach a place where you can return the goodness you once received.
Wishing you the best for all your endeavours !!!!
V happy for u ME.. And yes good things will definitely happen n see this is an example by itself.. Hugs dear.. 🙂 All the best for this new beginning and Wish u good Luck and hugs again.. | 2019-04-19T11:15:14Z | https://theerailivedin.com/2012/08/28/giving-back/ |
Standing on top of Mt. Erie, high above the town of Anacortes, a visitor can appreciate the special beauty of the town’s setting in the midst of a glistening blue sea, speckled with islands and calling out for adventure.
Located on Fidalgo Island, Anacortes is a town of about 17,000 separated from the mainland by a bridge over the Swinomish Channel, visited for its beaches, bustling downtown shopping district, 50 miles of hiking trails and annual festivals. It is also a destination point for the San Juans and international ferry runs for Washington state.
The town’s Cap Sante Marina offers a home base for several whale-watching tour companies that all but guarantee seeing at least one of several species of whales. The marina also has fancy restaurants, nearly 200 berths for guest moorage, repair facilities, fuel docks and more, all just blocks from downtown.
Anacortes Community Forest Lands comprises 2,800 acres of woods, wetlands, lakes and meadows within city limits. Mt. Erie and Heart Lake are particular gems in the forest. Mt. Erie’s summit offers a spectacular view of the San Juan islands, and you can drive to the top if you are not up to hiking one of the trails to the 1,273-foot peak. If you do decide to hike, picking up a map is a must, as trails tend to intertwine. Maps are available at nearby businesses such as the bike shop.
Afterwards, head into downtown Anacortes and walk down Commercial Street to explore its red brick buildings, antique shops, restaurants, marine hardware stores and book sellers. If looking to eat, there are numerous delis, pizzerias, and upscale seafood restaurants to pick from. Anacortes also has a surprising nightlife and local music scene that pumps energy into Commercial Street in the evening hours.
Life-sized murals of interesting characters from Anacortes’ past add splashes of color to the city center. You can stroll past paintings of turn-of-the-century luminaries such as Anne and Tommy Thompson, founders of the Anacortes Railway.
Anacortes hosts more than its fair share of festivals. The Spring Wine Festival in April, Waterfront Festival in early June and Oyster Run motorcycle rally in September are a few examples. The Anacortes Arts Festival, held in downtown Anacortes on August 3-5 this year, has celebrated art in Anacortes since 1962. The festival features an organized run, nearly non-stop music performances, and artists and craftspeople displaying sculptures, textile art, jewelry, photography, paintings and more.
Watching the sun melt into the horizon at Washington Park or Causland Memorial Park is a favorite way to cap a day on Fidalgo Island. If you hear the deep horn of a ferry in the distance, departing for distant islands, you can relax knowing you’re already on island time.

My wife is on her way to get her Lumia 920 today and I received mine last week. She will use her own Microsoft Account but I want to be able to share the Windows Store/Marketplace account so we do not have to purchase separate apps. How do we do this?
Accounts are for a single person, purchases are tied to an account.
So in a sense, we will also need two XBOX Music passes too? Her phone can't be counted as one of my allowed devices?
As much as I am glad to have left Android, I will miss the sharing of app store purchases.
Can you confirm if you got this to work. One of the few perks of iOS was not re-buying apps for each family member.
Did you try one acct?
My wife has the 8x, I have the 920 and a surface.
I set my account not to sync email on her phone and added her email account.
Works great. Music pass works on all 3 devices and she has her personal email etc..
Thanks. Debating getting my wife an 8x or an iPhone 4s. How's yours doing?
Is there a contact moderator link somewhere? | 2019-04-21T10:26:43Z | https://forums.windowscentral.com/games/202824-share-marketplace-account-print.html |
U.S. Grain Groups as calling upon the government this week to respond to tariffs Brazil slapped on U.S. ethanol.
Growth Energy, the Renewable Fuel Association and the U.S. Grains Council want lawmakers to take action after Brazil’s Chamber of Foreign Trade imposed a two-year tariff-rate quota for ethanol imports late August.
Under the tariff rate quota, a 20 percent tariff is tacked on U.S. ethanol products once Brazil surpasses imports of 600 million liters or 158.5 million gallons from the United States. According to Census Bureau trade data, U.S. ethanol exports to Brazil are at 1.17 billion liters or 310 million gallons through July this year.
Tom Sleight, president and CEO of U.S. Grains Council says Brazil is not breaking any World Trade Organization rules with the temporary tariff, just a working agreement and understanding the U.S. had with Brazil, working together as two leading bio-fuel suppliers in the world.
Growth Energy says the trade barrier could threaten over $750 million in U.S. exports and American jobs.
“With ethanol production remaining a significant market for American corn and America’s farmers facing low commodity prices, government inaction on this vital issue would signal a detrimental economic downturn,” said Emily Skor, CEO with Growth Energy.
Sleight says a win-win for the grains industry is to have the two agricultural sectors talk to each other about the tariff. He says that may include Ag. Secretary Sonny Perdue engaging in talks with Brazil’s Minister of Agriculture, Blairo Maggi.
“Maggi from what we understand was a big player in arguing for this tariff to be instituted. Sec. Perdue has established a good working relationship with Mr. Maggi. Sit down and talk this through and press upon that this is not in either of our country’s interests to start down this road,” said Sleight.
Sleight says there are other measures to take if engaging in talks doesn’t work. | 2019-04-25T18:16:55Z | https://www.agweb.com/article/us-grain-groups-want-action-as-brazil-slaps-tariffs-on-ethanol-naa-betsy-jibben/ |

A Springs man is facing possible deportation by Immigration and Customs Enforcement after being arrested by East Hampton Town police for the second time in less than a year on charges stemming from alleged drunken driving.
Andy Michael Sanchez-Jaramillo, 34, was behind the wheel of a 2015 Hyundai headed north on Three Mile Harbor Road in East Hampton on Saturday night when he began swerving into the oncoming lane of traffic, then swinging back across the road and onto the shoulder, police said. A patrol car began following the Hyundai, which allegedly continued to swerve, until it pulled into a driveway.
Mr. Sanchez-Jaramillo got out of the car and allegedly tried to outrun the officer, but was soon apprehended.
He had been arrested in June of 2017 on a driving while intoxicated charge, after being in a motor vehicle accident, according to the police. The misdemeanor charge at that time was at the aggravated level, due to a breath test that produced a reading in excess of .18 of 1 percent alcohol in the blood, police said.
That 2017 case is still being adjudicated.
At headquarters after Saturday night’s arrest, Mr. Sanchez-Jaramillo refused to take a breath test, according to the police. Because the prior charge is still open, the new D.W.I. count remains a misdemeanor. However, because his license was suspended last June following the arrest, and has yet to be restored, Mr. Sanchez-Jaramillo is now facing a felony charge of unlicensed driving.
He was arraigned Sunday morning in East Hampton Town Justice Court in front of Justice Lisa R. Rana. He had stood before her last Thursday, as part of the adjudication process for last year’s arrest. “So not nice to see you again. You were here, what, Thursday?” she asked. She read through the new charges, which included numerous moving violations and a harassment charge for allegedly briefly struggling with the arresting officer. “There is an ICE detainer,” she concluded.
The Suffolk County sheriff’s office holds defendants for up to 48 hours after they are supposed to be released if the county receives a detainer request from ICE officers, to allow them time to pick up the defendant on immigration charges. The legality of this practice is being challenged in the New York State Supreme Court’s Appellate Division by the New York Civil Liberties Union.
Justice Rana set bail at $10,000. Mr. Sanchez-Jaramillo said he would not be able to post that amount; even if he did, the ICE detainer would take effect. Because he is charged with a felony, the district attorney has, under the law covering such charges, until the end of the business day on Friday to obtain an indictment on the charge or release Mr. Sanchez-Jaramillo. Such a release, however, would be technical in nature. Mr. Sanchez-Jaramillo would be moved by county sheriff’s officers from the general prisoner population at the jail in Riverside to one of the 150 beds ICE rents from the county in the same facility. At that point, the 48-hour clock would start ticking for the federal agency to take action.
In other news, Sag Harbor Village police arrested Christopher A. Thomas II early Sunday morning. He had been pulled over after crossing the Sag Harbor-North Haven Bridge, headed north. Police said the 22-year-old Sag Harbor resident was driving at night without his headlights on, and had run the stop sign at the intersection of Main Street and Bay Street. He took the breath test at headquarters, which resulted in a .13 reading, over the .08 mark that defines intoxication, according to the police. He was released later that morning after being arraigned without bail. | 2019-04-24T19:22:58Z | https://www.easthamptonstar.com/News/2018221/Facing-Deportation-After-Second-Arrest |

Background: Several intracellular signaling pathways that are deregulated during hepatocarcinogenesis might constitute potential targets for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) therapy. The aim of this study was to test the potential synergic antitumor effect of salirasib and sorafenib in a diethylnitrosamine (DEN)-induced HCC model in rat. The hypothesis of tumor phenotype changes during treatment was also analyzed.
Materials and methods: DEN was administered to Wistar rats during 9 weeks to induce cirrhosis and liver cancer. After tumor development, rats were treated with intraperitoneal injections of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), or salirasib, and/or with oral sorafenib 5 days/week, during 4 weeks. At sacrifice, number and size of liver tumors as well as tumor burden were recorded, and all liver tumors were processed for histological and immunohistological analyses.
Results: Mortality rate was significantly higher in rats treated with salirasib and/or sorafenib than in the control group (P=0.001). Tumor burden was smaller in the treated group compared with the DMSO control group (P=0.044), but a synergistic effect of the two chemotherapies could not be observed. In 62.5% of rats (10/16) treated with salirasib and/or sorafenib, a cytokeratin-7 and -19-positive hepatocholangiocellular carcinoma (HCC/CHC) was found vs 20% (5/25) developing such phenotype in the DMSO control group (P=0.018). Ki67 immunostaining showed significantly reduced tumor cell proliferation in treated rats (P=0.001), whereas apoptosis as assessed by caspase-3 activity in cell lysate was similar in all groups.
Conclusions: The addition of sorafenib to salirasib did not seem to provide any synergistic therapeutic effect in this study. Both chemotherapeutic agents, administered alone or in combination, induced tumoral phenotypic changes in the majority of rats, a finding not associated with an increased tumor cell proliferation or decreased apoptosis. The rat model described in this work constitutes the first experimental tool generating putatively more aggressive combined HCC/CHC tumors following chemotherapy. Further work is required to better characterize this clinically relevant phenomenon. | 2019-04-26T00:26:06Z | https://www.dovepress.com/tumoral-response-and-tumoral-phenotypic-changes-in-a-rat-model-of-diet-peer-reviewed-article-OTT |
The human cornea is a microstructurally heterogenous biological tissue under constant intraocular pressure. Ophthalmologist have realized that topographical or cross-sectional shape information alone is not sufficient, and direct measurement of the mechanical tissue properties is required. Despite new emerging technologies to address this need, techniques rely heavily on complex modeling of the tissue in a one-size-fits-all model to extract biomechanical data. Additionally, higher sensitivity and spatial resolution is required for corneal diseases that would benefit from early intervention.
We propose a novel non-contact system which uses Brillouin Spectroscopy to measure the stiffness of the cornea using low power near infrared laser source at 780 nm. Measurements are based on the low levels of inelastically back-scattered and spectrally shifted light collected from a confocal volume. This direct measurement technique can generate patient specific stiffness maps with micrometer level spatial resolution. This direct and patient specific measurement provides synergistic functional information necessary for early diagnosis, surgical screening, planning, and follow-up, as well as providing a valuable tool for clinical research.

AECOM is leading the Capri consortium that is trialling driverless pods at Filton Airfield, as part of a pilot scheme that will pave the way for the use of connected and autonomous vehicles (CAVs) to move people around airports, hospitals, business parks and shopping and tourist centers.
The closed tests at the disused airfield in north Bristol in the southwest of the UK is the first of four trials under the pilot, which is being delivered by Capri (Connected & Autonomous Pod on-Road Implementation), an AECOM-led 19-partner consortium that was awarded funding last year from Innovate UK and the UK’s Center for Connected & Autonomous Vehicles (CCAV).
During the two-week trial, the pods’ safety critical features are being assessed along with participant comfort testing. The trial will inform the pods’ first public appearance later this year when they will transport members of the public around The Mall at South Gloucestershire’s Cribbs Causeway retail park. The project will culminate in an on-road public trial at London’s Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, a diverse estate that includes retail, recreation, residential and business centers.
Focusing on trips of up to 5 miles (8km) to connect people to places, Capri is developing the next generation of autonomous pods, as well as the systems and technologies that will allow the vehicles to navigate safely and seamlessly in both pedestrian and on-road environments, known as ‘dual-mode’.
The consortium is looking at how the network can harness data to enable location, positioning and mobility-on-demand (MOD) services to help support a wider roll-out of dual-mode autonomous pods. The 1.5 mile-long (2.5km) runway at Filton Airfield provides an excellent opportunity for the consortium to set up and test the autonomous pods in a safe and controlled environment. Capri consortium member YTL Developments owns the airfield and is developing the site.
The Capri consortium was awarded the funding as part of a CCAV and Innovate UK competition to invest £35m (US$45.3m) in industry-led research and development projects that would deliver technical solutions for CAVs that provide real-world benefits to users and where the commercial benefit is clear.
The Capri consortium consists of a team of experts with multidisciplinary expertise, including: AECOM, Aimsun, AXA UK, Conigital, Dynniq, ESP Group, Fusion Processing, Heathrow, London Legacy Development Corporation, Nexor, South Gloucestershire Council, Thingful, T&VS, Westfield Technology Group, YTL Developments, and the universities of Bristol, Warwick, Loughborough and the West of England.
“Connected and autonomous vehicles are predicted to make a huge impact on society, but require significant research and development to support their future commercial use,” noted George Lunt, technical director at AECOM. | 2019-04-26T11:45:54Z | https://www.traffictechnologytoday.com/news/autonomous-vehicles/aecom-led-capri-consortium-trialling-driverless-pods-at-disused-uk-airfield.html |
Elpro’s participation at Elmia Automation in Jönköping in mid-May has generated a great deal of work for the company – not least on the sales side of things. The trade fair is considered one of Sweden’s most important arenas (perhaps themost important) for production in the manufacturing industry, and, for Elpro, participating in Sweden’s leading automation fair was a given.
“We received very positive reception from visitors to the fair and we brought back numerous exciting leads to work on. A few these have already managed to generate confirmed orders,” says Eivind Ottoson.
That six iterations of Elmia Production Fairs were held in parallel speaks volumes about the boom being experienced by Swedish industry, which is standing on the precipice of exciting technological transformations that are going to change the manufacturing industry in its entirety. This was the first time that these six trade fairs were held at the same time and under the same Elmia Production Fairs name. Exciting innovations, new materials, and the latest new products were showcased by over 480 exhibitors.
“Our participation in the trade fair has whet our appetites, and I’d be very surprised if we didn’t return on 12-15 May, 2020,” says Eivind.

Our featured subscriber of the month is FRW Studios and its founders/owners Julie and Lance White.
As their tagline states, FRW is “a damn fine design studio” based out of Dana Point, CA. FRW offers efficient, creative, lasting solutions for all of one’s marketing and advertising needs. Their primary customer is marketing departments that want to save costs on extra employees.
Julie and Lance have years of experience in the services that FRW provides, but FRW is itself a start-up, less than a year old. And although Plan Canvas is less than 3 months old, Lance is not new to the processes and templates of the Plan Canvas software.
Before launching FRW Studios with his wife, Julie, Lance managed an automobile dealership. When the automaker demanded a business plan or risk losing the dealership, Lance employed the practices defined in Business is ART, the book by Plan Canvas founder Jon Umstead upon which the software is built.
The automaker accepted the resulting plan, and within the first month of executing to it, Lance’s team met its monthly targets for the first time in over a year.
But Lance disagreed, saying it was absolutely no coincidence at all. He said the difference was that, with the plan, he and his team were better focused on what they had to achieve.
Want to try Plan Canvas but think you may need the assistance of a consultant?
Sometimes you just need a little help or a little push to get started. We have an option for a minimal engagement with a consultant to help you do just that.
Lance could have simply developed a plan to satisfy the automaker, then throw the plan away, as is often the case – use the plan to satisfy the wants/needs of some third-party, for whatever purpose, then discard it. But he gained even more value out of it by managing the plan well after the automaker was satisfied with the sheer existence of one.
Having had that positive experience, when the time came to define their new business, FRW Studios, Lance and Julie became early adopters of Plan Canvas, first as beta test users, and now as users of the production software.
Julie and Lance feel that a major difference between how things are now, using the tool, versus how they would have been had they not used it, is in measuring and seeing success.
These are real, measurable outcomes.
In three years, Julie and Lance see FRW Studios as one of Orange County California’s highest-rated design firms, with their current clients not just still with them, but true advocates for FRW.
Julie and Lance are passionate about FRW Studios. It is their startup baby – they birthed together- and it is named after their children, Frances and Reagan White (FRW).
We hope Plan Canvas is along for every step of the ride and are proud to be associated with Julie, Lance and FRW Studios – a damn fine design studio and a damn fine couple of entrepreneurs.
Please click here for a list of some of the features and a demo of Plan Canvas.
The Plan Canvas official launch was September 5, 2017. Like all new business ventures, we started with an idea.
In our case, that idea was to create tools and a community that make business success much more likely. The odds are already stacked heavily against most business ventures, and the unfortunate truth is we make the risk even greater by either not thinking things through, or over-complicating it.
Our vision is to eliminate that unnecessary, self-inflicted risk, while dramatically reducing the naturally occurring risk of doing business.
Going forward, our intention is to highlight one featured Plan Canvas Subscriber of the Month. This month, our featured subscriber is our first, ever, paid subscriber – our first genuine customer – Anastasia Button.
Before telling her story, let’s make something clear upfront. After doing the analysis and beginning to strategize and plan the business, this Plan Canvas user made the decision NOT to further pursue the new business venture.
It’s a fair critique – on the surface. Most solution providers only tell stories of customers and clients that have had wild success using their products and services. We’re no different in that regard.
The difference may be that we genuinely see a decision not to launch as a wild success.
Too many people have wasted precious time, money, energy, and have even sacrificed relationships, for a business that was either not right or not right at the time. We would much rather our subscribers realize that very early in the game -before those expenditures are made – rather than after it is too late.
The best way to do that is by formally visualizing and planning the business ahead of time.
All that said, our very first Subscriber of the Month is no stranger to critically thinking through business development and business solutions.
Anastasia is a Millennial Business Coach and also helps companies attract, engage and retain young talent. You can find her at www.AnastasiaButton.com.
As she puts it, her passion is derived from pain.
“I was a lost Millennial trying to navigate what an entrepreneur was and I was failing as a roofing contractor – a door knocker. One day I realized I was not living a life I wanted. I worked 70-hours a week and was barely making ends meet. It wasn’t until I was on a 2-story roof and realized that I just felt like jumping (figuratively)!
Your sense of purpose does not have to be as grandiose as saving the world, but it is really important to take time to understand what it is. Once you’ve determined it, you have an opportunity to lay out a path forward to achieving it.
Anastasia’s drive comes from her sense of purpose – to help others identify their own purpose in life, so that they can leverage it to generate a business that is meaningful and brings impact to their lives.
She also helps corporations do this by leveraging their mission to fuel and engage their workforce and leadership to better serve the customer.
Action Items – this is great for teams. My team members used to get overwhelmed seeing a huge to-do list. Now, from the dashboard, they just see what the next 7-days include.
Big picture – The team appreciated having immediate goals and I, on the back end, could see the whole picture.
Business planning – the tool was helpful in bringing focus to certain sections of the business plan. Instead of seeing a 10+ page business plan template and feeling like you have to fill it to the brim, Plan Canvas has you focus on small sections at a time. Before you know it, your business plan is written – and with brevity.
Simplistic, effective and easily navigated. I enjoyed Plan Canvas from the get-go and encourage startups, pre-startups and even my own clients to use Plan Canvas as a tool for their business and team, to get their plan in action!
We are so glad that there are people like Anastasia who are out there really making a positive impact on people’s lives and sense of purpose. We are even more appreciative to have subscribers like her in the Plan Canvas community.
There is always a level of disappointment in having a business idea that is eventually abandoned. But the good news is that Anastasia has a healthy coaching practice that continues to grow and thrive. She is the type of person that is likely to generate new, additional ideas throughout her life and career, and is probably already cooking up the next big one.
The great news is that she didn’t waste a lot of time and resource determining one particular idea is not right or not right now.
Thank you, Anastasia, for being a part of our big idea and for being our very first featured Subscriber of the Month.

I get an unknown partition as the result.
but I only got it up to probing for cd media.
I don’t know about installing the image to the HDD, but a question arises. Is the hd formatted in an ext3/reiserfs/etc… or is it fat/ntfs. if it is fat/ntfs i would suggest u format the drive or at least a partition on the drive using ext3, if that fails, sadly, u will need to wait for someone who has done this before. i simply run the image off the cd and using pre/post boot script put my changes there.
that’s why. Your saying I can’t extract it to a partition. Because that’s what I’ve been trying to do (and to JC, I have tried formatting the partition and not formatting it).
The reason being is because I want to dual boot the OS. What I’m trying to do in the long run is setup an ubuntu router vs zeroshell (using webmin), but that’s another story, so I was trying to setup a first partition to hold zeroshell that I could boot to until I complete it. I love Zeroshell, I just wanted to do more with my 3.0 Ghz PC than routing.
If you want to use them both try virtualization. Having ZS in a different partition is pointless if you want my opinion. Install Virtual Box and create a new virtual server that will run ZS. | 2019-04-22T16:18:13Z | https://zeroshell.org/forums/topic/hard-drive-extract-unknown-partition/ |
On December 12 2012, the Robert Graves Elementary School PTO hosted a joint meeting with the Anna Devine PTA. Parents had an informal Q & A session with Superintendent Paul Padalino about the redistricting process. The following informational summary is provided for parents who were unable to attend the meeting.
One of the most popular questions related to when teachers will know the school they will be assigned to teach at during the 2013-2014 school year.
Many of the parents’ questions related to how bus times would be handled. Parents expressed concern about this period of unstructured time.
1. Transportation is contracted out to vendors. They are responsible for the hiring and staffing of school buses.
2. Transportation routes are 50% complete.
3. Video monitors will be installed on every bus as a deterrent to misbehavior.
4. Bus monitors will not be used on a regular basis but may be used in special circumstances.
5. The District hopes to pilot the Peaceful Bus program this Spring.
6. There will not be separate buses for students in Grades 5 and 6.
7. Parents of Bailey students are encouraged to send students on the bus rather than drop them off due to limited space for vehicles.
An article about the Peaceful Bus Program is available here. Additional info about the Peaceful Bus program is available here.
“Your fifth grade student will not have seven teachers,” Dr. Padalino assured parents. Currently, the District is researching having teams of either two teachers or four teachers for Grade 5 and 6 students.
1. The District will provide professional development for Middle Level educators who will be teaching Grade 5 students.
2. Students will continue to have recess.
3. When students do change classes, they will primarily be in the same wing of the building, with the exception of special area classes like physical education and art.
4. On average, class sizes in Grades K-2 will be in the 19- 22 student rang, and classes in Grades 3-4 have around 25 students.
1. Will students and parents have the opportunity to meet next year’s teacher during the current school year? Yes. More information will be provided after February.
2. Will band be offered to third grade students? It is possible – it is part of the scheduling process.
3.If New York State decides to extend the school year by 300 hours, will this impact our students next year? No.
4. Will there be “Art on a Cart”? No.
5. Will intramurals be offered to Grade 5 students? Yes.
6. Three schools have fourth grade students who will move to a new school next year, and then to Middle School. What extra support will be offered to these students? With redistricting, support staff (such as school psychologists) will be centrally located instead of traveling between buildings, offering more support opportunities for students. Principals will also be responsible for ensuring these students get the support they need.
7. Will seats be assigned in the cafeteria? This is a school management decision and is the responsibility of each principal. It is possible seats will be assigned, but students will have flexibility to request switching cafeterias.
8. Will special education students be returned to their home schools? As much as possible, yes.
9. Will there be diversity in both middle schools? Yes.
•January-June 2013: Graves and Anna Devine grades K-3 students will participate in a Pen Pal program connecting students of the same grade together from both schools.
•June 6: Anna Devine grades K-3 students and their teachers will visit Graves Elementary for the morning and during the lunch blocks to visit classrooms, tour the building and enjoy a barbeque lunch and recess with the Graves students. More details will be shared later in the school year.
•Spring 2013: The Anna Devine PTA will sponsor a “Garden Replanting Event.” Volunteers will be needed to transplant perennial flowers, trees and bushes from our school garden, to the garden at Graves Elementary. More details will be shared later in the school year. | 2019-04-21T06:24:45Z | https://ny24000343.schoolwires.net/domain/143 |
Opening tomorrow in theaters is the latest blood drenched opus from Robert Rodriguez‘s grindhouse fascination, and sequel to the original “Grindhouse” movie spinoff “Machete”, Machete Kills. Here to tell us all about his love for the Machete madness is friend of the site and proprietor of GMan Reviews Andrew Robinson.
Never has a film had more of a hill to climb than this and at the same time existed in it’s own realm of perfection than Machete Kills.
With the first film I found myself completely and utterly disappointed and I feel it was from a place of lost expectations. A film, based on a joke that was initially meant only to be that encapsulated by a (roughly) two minute trailer, where they decided to do that very narrative promised in the trailer felt like the epitomy of the “all the best parts were in the trailer” complaint that many film fans love to lob at these big dumb films. However, far away from that production process, starting anew Machete Kills has it’s own slew of dumb action gags that are ripe for joyous film lovers to dig deep into.
With the film beginning with it’s own new promised third iteration trailer — IN SPACE!!!! — the film leads in with more than enough to set the tone that we can’t wait to gorge in on.
Now when I talk about movies like Machete, people can’t quite get their heads around it. We’re talking about a film which involves one character played by a revolving door of actors that changes each scene, has a guy being killed by a helicopter and spear gun combination and let’s throw in some brothel humour including murdering guns in the position and shape of erogenous areas of the human body. This film is and tries nothing else than to be lovingly insane and it’s audience, not you Oscar gripping dramatic sap, will love it even more than Rodriguez ever imagined we would.
It would be a poor choice for me not to discuss the idea of diminishing returns, which is what films like this are. I’ve already explained — I love this movie — but at the same time films like this, and I’d throw the first Machete into this category, have a sense of “diminishing returns” as it runs on. These films play on such a specific genre gag of filmmaking and film lovers that as time wears on it can feel as if you’ve had your fun and can become “full” to the point of needing to take a breath before diving into more, or sometimes wanting to call it quits. Machete Kills does have that to an extent, as it relates to the precluding trailer and where the film takes itself towards the end, but I’d argue that the pacing and general vibe of the film never oversteps its own vision. With the first film it felt too constricted by it’s own joke that was the initial trailer — which the film stuck to — but here it’s free to manage it’s crazed story on it’s own terms and go in directions we haven’t been thinking about for years before it’s release.
If Shaft is black culture’s answer to James Bond, Black Dynamite is modern ironic subculture’s answer to Shaft; then Machete is Rodriguez‘s answer to all of the above with cutlass’ and Lady Gaga somewhere in the middle of it all.

Cloth and leather bindings can be rebacked, retaining all the original binding, or can be completely rebound. If necessary spines can be retooled in a contemporary style, or the original spine can sometimes be retained. If rebinding is required this can be done in a style suitable to the age of the book. The bindery is equipped with a wide range of period decorative tools for gold finishing.
Hard and soft back bindings lettered in gold to the requirements of the university or college. | 2019-04-23T08:55:56Z | http://www.timwiltshire.co.uk/?q=taxonomy/term/6 |

If you've been staring wistfully at the many iOS folks who are playing Super Mario Run on your commute, wondering when your Android gizmo could get in on the action, maybe stop doing that. First up, it's a little creepy and, secondly, soon enough you'll be able to play on your own device. To find out exactly when, you can pre-register for the app via Google Play and be alerted as soon as the download is ready. Precisely when that is isn't clear, but hopefully the gap will be shorter than it was between announcement and availability on Apple's mobile OS -- a month. | 2019-04-23T04:03:49Z | https://www.engadget.com/2016/12/29/find-out-when-you-can-download-super-mario-run-on-android/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter |

I've decided I'm gonna do a new blog feature.
Every Tuesday I'll do a Tune-Up and share 5 (maybe more) songs with you guys!
They'll range from things I'm currently digging, to nostalgic pieces, to fun, to pensive -- the whole gamete.
I know this one is headed out late...but here it is.
1. "History of Rap 2," Jimmy Fallon & Justin Timberlake, (find number 1 here) this one is totally cheating, but I saw this and was incredibly impressed. Very few medleys are worth your time...but this one is FOR SURE. Plus I love me some J-Timberlake.
2. "Who Says" by Selena Gomez and The Scene, I love the message this video promotes. Beauty is not just for models or Barbies, it IS you and me!
3. Cover of "King of Anything" by Sara Barelleis, done by Sam Tsui & Kurt Schneider, I love this song. So empowering. During a dramatic time about 7 months ago I would sing this all the time. I get to decide what's right for me.
4. "Say My Name" by Destiny's Child, this is the first Making of the Video I ever watched and really what got me interested in R&B and Hip Hop in the first place. And began my love of Miss BK.
5. "Hot Stuff" by Donna Summer, now bear with me on this one. I know it's a disco favorite, but beyond that it always reminds me of this scene from Boy Meets World. I heard it in the car tonight and was giggling to myself just thinking about it.
What stuff are you guys digging right now? | 2019-04-24T18:08:26Z | http://www.siovhanshow.com/2011/08/tuesday-tune-up.html |
2017 and 2018 saw rapid growth in the sport of wrestling, with over 50 college teams rready for the 20-19 season and a dozen states deciding to create a separate girls’ high school championship. “Girls, Grappling, and Grit” dives into why the sport has expanded so rapidly and the hurdles it has gone through.
Documentary filmmaker MarQ Piocos traveled across the country for a year, talking to veteran wrestlers and those still on their journey. Experts and coaches in the field explain what benefits girls and women are getting from taking up the sport. He also covered all aspects of the sports – girls just trying it for the first time; an all female high school team; and a women’s collegiate team starting its first year just to name a few stories the project covers.
The documentary will have its world premiere at the Artemis film Festival on April 28th, at 10:40 AM at the Leammle Monica Film Center, located at 1332 2nd St. in Santa Monica. Ticket information to come.
I, for one, am looking forward to watching it and wish MarQ the best of luck with the premiere.
The Eagles will be competing in the NAIA. At this point, there is no word if they intend to compete in the WCWA. They are currently searching for the team’s inaugural head coach.
On February 11th, Indiana Institute of technology, in Fort Wayne, Indiana, a private nonprofit University, announced it intended to begin competing in the 2020-2021 season. Indiana Tech specializes in career-oriented degree programs in business engineering computer science education and criminal justice among others. It’s 42-acre campus has an academic staff of 544. And, it’s combined student body which includes undergraduate and postgraduate, is just past 9,600.
Indiana Tech will be the first college in the state of Indiana to offer women’s wrestling to its athletics offerings. The Warriors will be competing in the NAIA also. There is no word if they intend to compete in the WCWA. They have also begun a nationwide search for the program’s inaugural head coach.
56 higher learning institutions are slated to offer wrestling as a varsity sport by fall of 2020. 28 of those will be schools in the NAIA, which bodes will for the invitational sport.
27 schools are in one of the three divisions of the NCAA. Which means women’s wrestling is inching its way to emerging sports status in that athletic association.
The remaining four are community colleges.
While it is almost a certainty that 28 of those schools will compete in the WCWA; there no telling how many NAIA school will do so, as the logistical and financial considerations will play a huge part in what programs decide to compete in both association championships.
But, even with that uncertainty, the growth of the sport at this level is always a welcomed sight! I wish both the Eagles and the Warriors the best of luck! | 2019-04-21T00:35:41Z | https://socalwrestlergirl.com/category/news/ |
Back in 2010 we started an annual series looking at the (re)distribution in the wealth of nations and social classes. What we found then (and what the media keeps rediscovering year after year to its great surprise) is that as a result of global central bank policy, the rich got richer, and the poor kept on getting poorer, even though as we predicted the global political powers would, at least superficially, seek to enforce policies that aimed to reverse this wealth redistribution from the poor to the rich (a doomed policy as the world's legislative powers are largely in the lobby pocket of the world's wealthiest who needless to say are less then willing to enact laws that reduce their wealth and leverage). Now that the topic of wealth distribution (or rather concentration) is once again in vogue, below we present the latest such update looking at a global portrait of household wealth. The bottom line: 29 million, or 0.6% of those with any actual assets under their name, own $87.4 trillion, or 39.3% of all global assets.
CS expects total household wealth to rise by almost 50% in the next five years from $223 trillion in 2012 to $330 trillion in 2017. What CS does not say is that the bulk of this increase is courtesy of Federal Reserve-facilitated wealth redistribution from the lower and middle classes to the upper class.
The number of millionaires worldwide is expected to increase by about 18 million, reaching 46 million in 2017.
China is expected to surpass Japan as the second wealthiest country in the world. However, the USA should remain on top of the wealth league, with $89 trillion by 2017.
By the middle of 2011, global wealth had recovered from the 2007 financial crisis; at that time, total wealth matched or exceeded the pre-crisis levels in all regions except Africa.
Global wealth by country: The figure for average global wealth masks the considerable variation across countries and regions (see Figure 3). The richest nations, with wealth per adult over USD 100,000, are found in North America, Western Europe, and among the rich Asia- Pacific and Middle Eastern countries. They are headed by Switzerland, which in 2011 became the first country in which average wealth exceeded USD 500,000. Exchange rate fluctuations have reduced its wealth per adult from USD 540,000 in 2011 to USD 470,000 in 2012; but this still remains considerably higher than the level in Australia (USD 350,000) and Norway (USD 330,000), which retain second and third places despite falls of about 10%. Close behind are a group of nations with average wealth above USD 200,000, many of which have experienced double-digit depreciations against the US dollar, such as France, Sweden, Belgium, Denmark and Italy. Countries in the group which have not been adversely affected have moved up the rankings – most notably Japan to fourth place with wealth of USD 270,000 per adult and the USA to seventh place with USD 260,000 per adult.
Interestingly, the ranking by median wealth is slightly different, favoring countries with lower levels of wealth inequality. As was the case last year, Australia (USD 195,000) tops the table by a considerable margin, with Japan, Italy, Belgium, and the UK in the band from USD 110,000 to 140,000, and Singapore and Switzerland with values around USD 90,000. The USA lags far behind with median wealth of just USD 55,000.
Trends in wealth per adult and its components: As Figure 5 shows, average household net worth trended upwards from 2000 until the crisis in 2007, then fell by approximately 10% before recovering in 2011 to slightly above the pre-crisis level. Further setbacks this year have pushed wealth per adult back below the previous peak. However, exchange rate movements account for much of the year-onyear variation. Using constant USD exchange rates yields a smoother time trend and a single significant downturn in 2008, after which point the recovery has continued more or less unabated.
At the start of the millennium, financial assets accounted for well over half of the household portfolio, but the share declined until 2008, at which point the global wealth portfolio was equally split between financial and nonfinancial assets (mostly property). In the period since 2008, the balance has again tipped slightly towards financial assets.
On the liabilities side of the household balance sheet, average debt rose by 80% between 2000 and 2007, and subsequently leveled out. It now amounts to USD 8,600 per adult, about 7% lower than it was the same time a year ago. Expressed as a proportion of household assets, average debt has moved in a narrow range, rising over the period, but never exploding.
The composition of household portfolios varies widely and systematically across countries. The most persistent feature is the rise in the relative importance of both financial assets and liabilities with the level of development. For instance, financial assets account for 43.1% of gross assets in Europe and 67.1% in North America, but just 15.9% of gross assets in India. Household debt as a percentage of gross assets is 16% in Europe and 18.1% in North America, but only 3.7% in India and 8.7% in Africa. There is also variation in portfolios unrelated to the level of development. Some developed countries, like Italy, have unusually low liabilities (10.0% of gross assets), while others have surprisingly high debt, like Denmark (33.7% of gross assets). In addition, the mix of financial assets varies greatly, reflecting national differences in financial structure. The share of equities in total financial assets, for example, ranges from 43.4% in the USA, down to just 20.1% and 6.5% in Germany and Japan respectively.
Changes to household wealth from mid-2011 to mid-2012; The adverse global economic climate and the USD appreciation that occurred during the year until mid-2012 meant that household wealth rose by more than USD 100 billion in only four countries: the USA (USD 1.3 trillion), China (USD 560 billion), Japan (USD 370 billion) and Colombia (USD 100 billion). Figure 6 shows that Eurozone members suffered the largest losses, led by France (USD 2.2 trillion), Italy (USD 2.1 trillion), Germany (USD 1.9 trillion) and Spain (USD 870 billion). These losses were exacerbated by the unfavorable euro-dollar exchange rate movement, but even in euro terms, wealth declined by EUR 50 billion in Germany, EUR 148 billion in France, EUR 177 billion in Spain and EUR 286 billion in Italy. Sizeable USD wealth reductions were also recorded in the UK (USD 720 billion), India (USD 700 billion), Australia (USD 600 billion), Brazil (USD 530 billion), Canada (USD 440 billion) and Switzerland (USD 410 billion).
The largest percentage gains and losses generate a slightly different list. A steady USD exchange rate, combined with an 11% improvement in market capitalization, helped Colombia to top the country rankings with a 16% rise in household wealth. Algeria, Hong Kong, Peru and Uruguay also recorded gains of more than 5%. The downside is more evident, especially in Eurozone countries, where double-digit losses were recorded everywhere (see Figure 7). Other sizeable declines were recorded for Russia (–13%), Mexico (–14%), South Africa (–15%) and India (–18%), while Eastern Europe had a very poor year, led by the Czech Republic and Poland (both with –18%), Hungary (–25%) and Romania (–36%).
But in a globalized world with virtually unlimited capital flows (for now: see Cyprus) physical borders mean little. Which is why next we look at the global wealth pyramid which breaks down wealth as percentage of the world population: i.e., who owns how much without geographic prejudice. It is here that is becomes most obvious how global policies since the Great Financial Crisis have benefitted the wealthiest at the expense of everyone else.
In 2012, 3.2 billion individuals – more than two-thirds of the global adult population – have wealth below USD 10,000, and a further one billion (23% of the adult population) are placed in the USD 10,000–100,000 range.
The average wealth holding is modest in the base and middle segments of the pyramid, total wealth amounts to USD 39 trillion, underlining the potential for new consumer trends products and for the development of financial services targeted at this often neglected segment.
The remaining 373 million adults (8% of the world) have assets exceeding USD 100,000.
And then the top of the pyramid: 29 million US dollar millionaires, a group which contains less than 1% of the world’s adult population, collectively owns nearly 40% of global household wealth.
Some 84,500 individuals are worth more than USD 50 million, and 29,000 are worth over USD 100 million.
The composition of the wealth pyramid in 2012 is broadly similar to that of the previous year, except for the fact that the overall reduction in total wealth increases the percentage of adults in the base level from 67.6% to 69.3% and reduces the relevant population share higher up the pyramid by a corresponding amount. The respective wealth shares are virtually unchanged.
Breaking it down by class.
The various strata of the wealth pyramid have distinctive characteristics. Although members of the base level are spread widely across all regions, representation in India and Africa is disproportionately high, while Europe and North America are correspondingly underrepresented (see Figure 2). The base tier has the most even distribution across regions and countries, but it is also the most heterogeneous, spanning a wide range of family circumstances. In developed countries, only about 30% of the population fall into this category, and for most of these individuals, membership is a transient or life cycle phenomenon associated with youth, old age, or periods of unemployment. In contrast, more than 90% of the adult population in India and Africa are located within this band. In many low-income African countries, the percentage of the population is close to 100%. Thus, for many residents of low-income countries, lifetime membership of the base tier is the norm rather than the exception. However, lower living costs mean that the upper limit of USD 10,000 is often sufficient to assure a reasonable standard of living.
While bottom-of-the-pyramid countries have limited wealth, it often grows at a fast pace. In India, for example, wealth is skewed towards the bottom of the wealth pyramid, yet it has tripled since 2000. Indonesia has also seen dramatic growth, and aggregate wealth in Latin America is now USD 8.7 trillion, compared to USD 3.4 trillion in 2000. In contrast, while North Americans dominate the top of the wealth pyramid, wealth in the USA has grown more modestly, from USD 39.5 trillion in 2000 to USD 62 trillion today.
The one billion adults located in the USD 10,000–100,000 range are the middle class in the global distribution of wealth. The average wealth holding is close to the global average for all wealth levels, and the total wealth of USD 32 trillion gives this segment considerable economic weight. The regional composition of this tier most closely corresponds to the global pattern, although India and Africa are underrepresented. The comparison of China and India is particularly interesting. India is host to just 3% of the global middle class, and the share has been relatively stagnant in recent years. In contrast, China’s share has been growing fast and now accounts for over one-third of members, ten times higher than India’s.
High wealth segment of the pyramid The regional composition changes significantly when it comes to the 373 million adults worldwide who make up the “high” segment of the wealth pyramid – those with a net worth above USD 100,000. North America, Europe and the Asia- Pacific region together account for 89% of the global membership of this group, with Europe alone home to 141 million members (38% of the total). This compares with about 2.4 million adult members in India (0.6% of the global total) and a similar number in Africa.
The number of people in a given country with wealth above USD 100,000 depends on three factors: population size, the average wealth level, and wealth inequality within the country concerned. In 2012, only 15 countries have more than 1% of the global membership. The USA leads with 21% of the total. In this instance, the three factors reinforce each other: a large population, combined with high mean wealth and an unequal wealth distribution. Japan is a strong second and is currently the only country that challenges the hegemony of the USA in the top wealth-holder rankings. Although its relative position has declined over the past couple of decades due to the lackluster performance of its equity and housing markets, Japan has 18% of individuals with wealth above USD 100,000, a couple of points more than a year ago.
The most populous EU countries – Italy, the UK, Germany, and France – each contribute 6%–8% to the high wealth segment, and each country has experienced a small decline in its membership share during the year. For many years, these countries have occupied positions three to six in the global rankings, but this year China edged France out of sixth place, a dramatic improvement from the situation in 2000, when China’s representation in the top wealth groups was too small to register. Brazil, Korea and Taiwan are other emerging market economies with at least four million residents with a net worth above USD 100,000. Mexico accounted for more than 1% of the group in 2011, but has dropped below this benchmark this year.
A different pattern of membership is again evident among the world’s millionaires at the top of the pyramid (see Figure 3). Compared to individuals with wealth above USD 100,000, the proportion of members from the United States almost doubles to 39%, and the shares of most of the other countries move downwards. There are exceptions, however. France moves up to third place in the rankings, and Sweden and Switzerland both join the group of countries with more than 1% of global millionaires. Thank you Federal Reserve.
Changing membership of the “millionaire group”; Changes to wealth levels since mid-2011 have affected the pattern of wealth distribution. The overall decline in average wealth has raised the proportion of adults with wealth below USD 10,000 from 67.6% in mid-2011 to 69.3% in mid-2012 (as the poor get poorer), and reduced the number of millionaires by slightly more than one million (see Table 1). There were 962,000 new millionaires in the United States and 460,000 in Japan, but no significant increase in numbers elsewhere. However, Europe shed almost 1.8 million US dollar millionaires, most notably in Italy (–374,000), France (–322,000),Germany (–290,000), Denmark (–179,000), Sweden (–142,000) and Spain (–87,000). Australia, Canada, Brazil and Taiwan are the other countries in the group of the top ten losers. The losses were sufficient to drop Brazil, Denmark and Taiwan (along with Belgium) from the list of countries with more than 1% of the total number of millionaires worldwide.
High net worth individuals; To estimate the pattern of wealth holdings above USD 1 million requires a high degree of ingenuity because at high wealth levels, the usual sources of wealth data – official statistics and sample surveys – become increasingly incomplete and unreliable. We overcome this deficiency by exploiting wellknown statistical regularities in the upper parts of the wealth distribution to ensure that the top wealth tail is consistent with the annual Forbes tally of global billionaires and similar “rich list” data published elsewhere. This produces plausible estimates of the global pattern of asset holdings in the high net worth (HNW) category from USD 1 million to USD 50 million, and in the ultra high net worth (UHNW) range from USD 50 million upwards. While the base of the wealth pyramid is occupied by people from all countries of the world at various stages of their life cycles, HNW and UHNW individuals are heavily concentrated in particular regions and countries, and tend to share a similar lifestyle, participating in the same global markets for high coupon consumption items, even when they reside on different continents. The wealth portfolios of individuals are also likely to be similar, dominated by financial assets and, in particular, equity holdings in public companies traded in international markets. For these reasons, using official exchange rates to value assets is more appropriate than using local price levels.
There are about 28.5 million HNW individuals with wealth between USD 1 million and USD 50 million in mid-2012, of whom the vast majority (25.6 million) fall in the USD 1–5 million range (see Figure 4). One year ago, Europe overtook North America as the region with the greatest number of HNW individuals, but tradition has been restored this year, with 11.8 million residents (42% of the total) in North America and 9.2 million (32%) in Europe. Asia-Pacific countries excluding China and India have 5.7 million members (20%), and we estimate that there are currently a fraction under one million HNW individuals in China (3.4% of the global total). The remaining 753,000 HNW individuals (2.6% of the total) reside in India, Africa or Latin America.
There is an estimated are 84,500 UHNW individuals in the world, defined here as those with net assets exceeding USD 50 million. Of these, 29,300 are worth at least USD 100 million and 2,700 have assets above USD 500 million. North America dominates the regional rankings, with 40,000 UHNW residents (47%), while Europe has 22,000 individuals (26%), and 12,800 (15%) reside in Asia-Pacific countries, excluding China and India. In terms of individual countries, the USA leads by a huge margin with 37,950 UHNW individuals, equivalent to 45% of the group (see Figure 5). The recent fortunes created in China have propelled it into second place with 4,700 representatives (5.6% of the global total), followed by Germany (4,000), Japan (3,400), the United Kingdom (3,200) and Switzerland (3,050). Numbers in other BRIC countries are also rising fast, with 1,950 members in Russia, 1,550 in India and 1,500 in Brazil, and strong showings are evident in Taiwan (1,200), Hong Kong (1,100) and Turkey (1,000). Although there is very little comparable data on the past, it is almost certain that the number of UHNW individuals is considerably greater than it was a decade ago. The overall growth in asset values accounts for part of the increase, together with the appreciation of currencies against the US dollar over much of the period. However, it also appears that, notwithstanding the credit crisis and the more recent setbacks, the past decade has been especially conducive to the establishment of large fortunes.

From the first moment I knew he was wrong. Such a Prince Charming, so big and strong.
It couldn´t be forever. I knew that he was wrong.
We flew together, but I woke up alone.
You told me: Higher and higher, to the stars and back. You are my pilot, I am your maniac.
Who is a liar, changing white to black? Higher and higher, to the stars and back.
He was not the right man, but I really didn´t care. Oh his smile has a quality of poison, I can swear!
his voice is a drug, tt gets in to your blood and moves your heartbeat.
He smiles and flies, never has a second more. Loves and cheats, is that what I`m looking for?
he flies so high, It´s his big secret.
We flew together, but I fell all alone.
No, No, No, t couldn´t be forever. I knew, I knew, I knew, that he was wrong.

Do you remember the episode of “Dr House” when extraordinary doctor – the hero of the series goes by a plane and one of the passengers on the board loses consciousness, gets into a sweat and goes into convulsions? House was to do his surgery in the air when it suddenly turned out that it was unnecessary because the patient did not keep safety rules that should be observed by all divers and came down with decompression sickness.
The difference in pressure under water and in the air at a height of about five thousand metres is huge. Anyone who flew the plane or dived knows the feeling when the ears “clog up”. It is a sign that the pressure changes rapidly. It is quite uncomfortable but not dangerous if in a simple way we will achieve an equal level of pressure in the ears, for example, by swelling with a blocked nose.
There are no contraindications for diving after landing on the ground. The only obstacle may be fatigue caused by journey. Let us remember that diving should take place only in good physical and mental condition.
Here the problems begins. Immediately after diving an air travel is highly inadvisable. You have to wait. How long? It depends on the quality and frequency of dives. After one dive without decompression you must wait at least 12 hours. This time is extended to 18 hours if more of these dives took place. In the case of decompression dive we should not get on a plane during 24 hours, but if we did a deep decompression dive – up to 48 hours. | 2019-04-21T20:08:52Z | http://divechum.com/a-diver-in-an-airplane/ |

Banstead-based The Royal Alfred Seafarers’ Society is celebrating International Women’s Day by raising awareness of the social care industry’s dependence on dedicated female care workers.
According to a recent Skills for Care report, adult social care services rely heavily on skilled and ancillary female staff. More than four fifths of the entire UK social care workforce is made up by women and 84% of workers in care homes with nursing staff are female.
The Royal Alfred is paying tribute to the thousands of women across the UK that give so much to supporting the needs of others as they reach the later years of their lives, in addition to celebrating its own staff at its care home in Surrey.
At a time when corporate gender equality is under the spotlight, as shown through the fact only 25.5% of boardroom positions at FTSE 350 companies are filled by females, The Royal Alfred is bucking the trend with two thirds of its Senior Management Team (SMT) and Head of Department (HOD) roles being occupied by women.
The care home and charity, which caters for retired seafarers, and dependents, as well as residents living with dementia, first opened its doors in 1865 to allow care for ‘worn-out and disabled merchant seamen’. The charity catered for men until 1966 when widows of seafarers and retired stewardesses moved in. Today however, it’s a different story with several female residents living at the home and women working across all job groups at the charity.
“The atmosphere at The Royal Alfred Seafarers’ Society is very special and this is no small part down to the dedication of employees. It’s very relevant to be talking about our team on International Women’s Day as two thirds of our senior staff are women and have instilled a professional, kind and caring atmosphere at the home, ensuring all residents are well looked after.
Commander Brian Boxall-Hunt, CEO at The Royal Alfred Seafarers’ Society, said: “We are marking International Women’s Day this year by calling on our industry to stand up and celebrate the vital contributions women make to the adult social care sector.
International Women’s Day (8 March) is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women. The event, which was first commemorated in 1911, is also used in recent years as a call to action for accelerating gender parity. | 2019-04-24T07:57:22Z | https://royalalfredseafarers.co.uk/royal-alfred-celebrates-contribution-of-female-staff-on-international-womens-day/ |

I’m finally back to work after moving from Belgium to Chile.
I’m thrilled to start a new position as an ALMA-CONYCIT research associate at the Universidad de Valparaiso. Even with the help of past experience, this time moving countries took a considerable amount of effort to accomplish, and I thought I’d write about the journey here. First, let me be clear: written below are just the facts of what it took to move institutes. I’m just going to be frank and honest about the experience, what was expected of me, and what I did. The key motivation was simply to keep working in science.
I loved my time in Gent. I was a very happy and productive worker. During the two years, I was able to double my first and nth author publications, present my research at numerous conferences, attend a number of collaborative meetings and went observing. The research group was great. Things were going great. However, the position had a limited lifespan due to my Herschel-related funding from BELSPO (set by the demise of Herschel, I think) and I needed to pursue other avenues of funding to continue research in Belgium. I made applications, they were rejected, and the funding ceased at the end of 2014. At this point, I didn’t have any concrete offers for another postdoc position – I was clearly wishful-thinking (or possibly under the influence of delicious Belgian beer) that we could stay longer in Ghent.
Regardless of where we would end up, either staying in academia or leaving to become a data scientist, physics teacher etc., any future bureaucracy or visa applications would be much easier dealt with from my permanent home in the UK. After all options were considered for moving, my wife and I decided to first travel back to the UK via the Eurostar, from where I could easily hire a van for moving everything out of our rented apartment. One weekend in February, my parents and I drove from Birmingham to Ghent, packed up all our belongings and furniture (affectionately known as the portable Ikea showroom) and drove it back to the Birmingham. I hired a storage locker and organised everything for the possibility that we may need to shortly ship it elsewhere.
Finding a job is a brutal process; it’s uncertainty can be crippling and the rejection utterly depressing. I was spending many days in Tamworth Library writing grant applications, postdoc applications and applying for data science courses/internships, since I think this would also be a very rewarding area in which to work. I was also exploring the possibility to become a secondary school teacher – the UK seems desperate to fill positions for good physics teachers from candidates with STEM backgrounds.
Whilst I don’t want to share too much information about our personal lives, in the end, several factors including my wife’s UK visa status, our current financial situation, and support from my family, meant I chose to pursue another postdoc position as a researcher at the University of Valparaiso, Chile. I think it was one of those once-in-a-lifetime opportunities to do exciting science (with ALMA!) whilst exploring another part of the world, that fortunately appeared to fit our situation at the time.
After receiving the offer of the position, I decided to go and check out the institute and the local area (I distinctly remember once considering moving to China “blind”, but those days are over). My wife had to return to China to see her family but also collect some paperwork that I correctly guessed she would need for the visa application. We had one of those rom-com moments where we both flew from the same airport at the same time yet going in opposite directions, Rongrong to China and myself to Chile.
Valparaiso itself was a huge shock at first. Following the calm, quiet and mostly clean streets of Ghent, Valparaiso’s mess of dilapidated buildings, covered with graffiti, that line the dog-mess-covered pavements, took some getting used to. (EDIT: I’ve now fallen in love with the place.) The institute itself was nice and welcoming, and it was exciting to talk about research again. After many Skype calls, talking things through, I eventually accepted the position. Flying out to Chile to check out the place was a huge gamble, risking losing a lot of money, so in hindsight I’m very relieved that I liked the place. However, whilst I should have been celebrating the new job, something that took months of effort and doubt and uncertainty to secure, I simply could not. I’ve moved countries enough times to know that the journey was just beginning and the decision always comes with even more pressure and uncertainties; Could I handle the work? Could I beat the bureaucracy? Could we afford to live there? But it’s completely expected that, if you are passionate about a career in science, then you keep publishing and move institutes every few years. So I bottled it all up and we started the move.
One would naively think that after applying for so many visas over the years, they get easier, but for me this has not been the case because each application has been for a different country and a different situation (e.g. work/study/tourism, single/married, transit/residency).
For Chile, we required a one-year temporary resident and an accompanying dependent temporary resident visa. This required a police certificate (£50 each), a health certificate from a doctor (£150 from a private health clinic), a legalised document (constancia) from the University to say I will be working, and our marriage certificate. Acquiring these documents took three weeks, then we submitted the application online and waited about 6 weeks for the visas to be approved.
In mid-July, we travelled down to London to spend a whopping £1200 on the visas (for reasons, UK passport holders pay a grand more than the Chinese). One thousand pounds for a work visa. I’ve held a couple, and that is by far the most expensive I’ve encountered. But, we were free to fly to Chile and start working! Our only problem: the flight tickets at the time were also £1000 each and by this point my credit card was hurting badly. We were advised that the relocation costs would be covered by the grant money associated with the position, so this wasn’t a huge deal for me at the time.
So, we booked the cheapest flights possible, leaving in September (£500 Birmingham-Santiago return, try beating that!). I took the cheapest option to ship our furniture from our storage locker in Birmingham to Valparaiso, loading up a 2 m^3 container. This was made possible thanks to Ikea, absolutely amazing – we shipped a bed, two comfy chairs, two wardrobes, ironing board, laundry basket, four dining chairs, a dining table and coffee table, plus other household essentials, that all fit into just a 2 m^3 box!
If Ikea helped make shipping everything possible, then Argos helped make the first month of science in Valparaiso possible. During the first half of 2015, it felt like we were bleeding money. Imagine the total cost of Eurostar tickets, weekend van hire, storage space, visa application fees, flight tickets to China, flight tickets to Chile, hotels, shipping costs… makes my heart heavy just thinking about all those costs just so I can continue to be a professional astronomer. My tight budget to move two people across the world was very tight, but my all my plans were extremely well-organised, and I thought that, once we arrived in Chile, the reimbursement of our relocation expenses plus the affordable cost of living would help cover most of our costs and we could return to normal life again. To help ease our financial worries, I took a job as a van driver at Argos, helping them set up a new home delivery process to compete with the likes of Amazon and other retailers. During the summer, I traded with them 600 hours of my life for roughly £3000, and was very thankful for both the opportunity given by, and the understanding nature of, the store manager. I hope my academic colleagues reading this now understand my slow response time to emails – I was working, just not researching!
After all this, in September we finally made it to Chile. We immediately applied for our RUT cards (like a national identity number, you need it to do everything), headed to the institute, got tear-gassed twice by the police during nearby rioting, and moved into a temporary apartment rented via Airbnb (highly recommend Ignacio’s place!).
Practically, we were very lucky, most things went according to plan and finding an apartment was very easy. Our portable Ikea showroom was delivered after much help from colleagues. I now have a desk and am finally back to doing research.
Unfortunately, the Registro Civil – the government office responsible for giving our RUT cards – has been on strike all month, so we haven’t been able to get the cards, and so cannot open bank accounts, sign my employment contract with the University, or sign our rental contract. On top of this, I’ve also been advised I cannot claim back any of our relocation expenses and also won’t be paid for the first month here, as the contract will start from October.
So, although making very rational and logical decisions, we return back to the same situation as when we were in Ghent, unsure of our finances and employment situation. The great news is I’m now analysing ALMA data and doing science!
Sure, this situation is not normal and just an unfortunate coincidence with the government strike. But I’ve found the last five or six years in academia to be terribly inefficient for doing science: moving countries to a new institute, taking time to adjust and be productive, and saving up just enough money to afford the next move to the next institute. In all the commotion and uncertainty, it’s obviously difficult to concentrate on work sometimes. However, in the current academic system it is expected and encouraged that a postdoc should jump through all these hoops whilst continuing to publish. I greatly admire those researchers who have also been able to start a family.
As I said above, these are just the facts of our recent move, this is not a rant, just a testament about the system itself. You make a decision to do research, be a scientist, and you open yourself up to financial uncertainty, job insecurity and a lot of stress. We should be honest about these issues with aspiring students. I’m not sure whether other postdocs share similar experiences as documented above, or I’ve just been (un)lucky with each move, but I find the system bizarre: surely there has to be a more efficient way we can do things?
Yet, I stand by my decisions to pursue a career in science. Ultimately, I wouldn’t trade these experiences for anything. Despite the tear-gassing, earthquakes, government strikes and financial mess, so far I am very much enjoying living in Valparaiso and fully appreciate the opportunity to continue with research. The position is only for two years and, if I have learnt anything from leaving China and leaving Belgium, I should soon start making plans for the next stage of my career.
Wherever that will take me. | 2019-04-21T20:44:46Z | http://www.txhughes.com/blog/?p=757 |
Battles at Ichi-no-tani and Yashima (detail; B63D8+).
What is this object? How was it used?
Painted folding screens like this one were commonly used as room dividers and decorative backdrops for ceremonial occasions. This example, probably made for a samurai patron, is decorated with scenes from a popular war tale describing the exploits of legendary warriors. The sumptuous gold leaf background seen here served a dual purpose: symbolically, it makes a statement about the samurai’s wealth and power, but in practical terms it also provided a reflective surface, helping to illuminate the dark interior spaces of the castle.
The subject matter is derived from a chronicle of military history known as The Tale of the Heike. Written in the 1200s, The Tale of the Heike recounts the war between two samurai clans, the Taira (or Heike) and Minamoto (or Genji). Imbued with the Buddhist belief in the transience of all wordly phenomena, the Heike focuses on the tragic and triumphant episodes leading up to the fall of the Taira clan in 1185.
The forces of the Minamoto (or Genji) fly white banners, while the Taira (or Heike) display red banners. Small rectangular labels affixed to the screen’s surface are inscribed with the names of the most famous warriors.
What is the mood of this painting? What does it tell us about samurai values?
The mood is generally positive, emphasizing the warrior’s nobility and bravery rather than focusing on the savagery of warfare. There is little gratuitous violence: scenes of decapitation, though a frequent feature described in the chronicle, are here kept to a minimum. In the scene of Kumagae’s encounter with the young soldier Atsumori, we are shown the moment when Kumagae calls out from the shore, rather than the moment of Atsumori’s death. The screen seems to present an ideal version of the samurai code of conduct, or bushido. By presenting the desirable aspects of warrior behavior in an entertaining form, the artist helped to promote these principles in an era, the Edo period (1615–1886), approximately 500 years after the The Tale of the Heike was written, when samurai were not often called upon to use their weapons.

New book illustrates how food insecurity, malnutrition, obesity, and cultural disconnection plague the global agricultural system and demand solutions from around the world.
Washington, D.C.—Worldwide, 30 percent of food is wasted, 1 billion people go to bed hungry each night while another 1 billion suffer from health problems related to obesity, and agriculture contributes to one-third global greenhouse gas emissions. Meanwhile, young people are increasingly disconnected from how their food is grown, making solutions to the global agricultural system seem even further out of reach.In response to these problems, the Barilla Center for Food & Nutrition (BCFN) is releasing a report, Eating Planet,highlighting the challenges facing today’s food and agricultural system, as well as the myriad benefits that reform could bring. As World Environment Day approaches, it is important to appreciate the linkages between technology, culture, and agriculture, and how they can alleviate hunger and poverty.
Food for All:Agriculture offers a crucial opportunity for effective investments in development. Because agriculture plays such a large role in rural populations in developing countries, growth in this sector is at least twice as effective in boosting incomes as growth in a non-agricultural sector. Agriculture also directly contributes to food security among the world’s poorest populations, and reforms to the sector are badly needed to reduce both poverty and hunger. These include reinforcing the mechanisms of global governance, such as curbing the trade of food-related stocks to lessen price volatility; encouraging the use of new approaches and tools to measure and promote well-being, in part by shifting away from Gross Domestic Product as a primary indicator of national development; and fostering eating habits that are healthier for humans and have a lower environmental impact.
Food for Sustainable Growth: While many agricultural activities, such as artificial fertilizer application or heavy pesticide use, may boost food production in the short term, they create serious obstacles to feeding the world over the long term. Environmental degradation, including water scarcity, soil depletion, and deforestation, are all results of the industrialized agricultural system, and these problems seriously compromise future generations’ prospects of well-being. Part of achieving sustainable well-being involves an understanding of the environmental impacts of different types of foods. To facilitate this understanding, the Barilla Center for Food & Nutrition has devised the Double Food and Environmental Pyramid. This pyramid, a new take on the traditional food pyramid, links the nutritional aspects of different types of food with their environmental impacts, to promote environmentally conscious and responsible food choices.
Food for Health:The global food system also affects issues of human health, including incidences of disease, malnutrition, obesity, and diabetes. The report notes several unhealthy changes in dietary and lifestyle patterns, including an increase in calories consumed, a lack of balance and diversity in diets, a lack of education about health and nutrition early in life, and a significant reduction in the amount of time dedicated to physical activity.
Food for Culture:The report emphasizes the need to reconnect people with producing, obtaining, preparing, and eating their food. This involves the transfer of knowledge from older to younger generations about the production and preparation of food, the return to a healthy relationship with and appreciation of the land on which food is grown, the revitalization of conviviality associated with food preparation and consumption, and the recovery of traditional flavors in the context of contemporary tastes. In Italy, the University of Gastronomic Sciences is finding ways to combine the passion of food connoisseurs with the science of agriculture. The university conducts courses in food anthropology, food cultures, food policy and sustainability, and students participate in study trips to examine regional food systems.
Healthy eating and lifestyles. In developing countries, where rising average incomes are affecting dietary choices, it is important to provide access to and education about healthy foods like fruits and vegetables before bad eating habits develop into deep-rooted cultural practices. Ensuring proper nutrition among infants and children can greatly improve overall health later in life. Among both children and adults, a balanced diet, coupled with an active lifestyle, can minimize the risks of overweight, obesity, tumors, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and metabolic syndrome. One extensively studied example is the Mediterranean diet, which characteristically emphasizes a balanced consumption of fruits and vegetables, legumes, and grains while limiting meat intake. A study completed by EPIC (European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition) found that strict adherence to the Mediterranean diet resulted in a significant reduction in the risk of developing a gastric carcinoma.
Fair food prices. To ensure that agriculture remains a viable and sustainable source of livelihood, farmers must be able to ask realistic prices for their products. In many countries, food prices are kept artificially low because they do not take into account the environmental impacts of producing food, the high medical costs associated with long-term unhealthy eating habits, the costs required to pay farmers and farmworkers a decent living wage plus benefits, and the billions of dollars in government subsidies that farmers receive to grow certain commodities. If farmers could charge real prices for the food they grow, consumers, especially in wealthy countries, would reconsider the impacts of their various food choices.
BCFN and Nourishing the Plant will officially launch Eating Planet–Nutrition Today: Challenge for Mankind and for the Planet at The Jerome L. Greene Performance Space in New York City at 10 AM EST on June 28.

Channel partners can make a lot of decisions for themselves when it comes to which vendors to ally with, what products to sell and what services to provide, but all of those decisions can be completely undermined with the stroke of a pen. Longstanding relationships and years of investment can be thrown in the rubbish bin overnight if a vendor decides to change strategy and cull partner numbers, pull out of a specific market, sell a technology business to a rival or buy a rival vendor.
All of these things can (and do) happen. For example, I haven’t looked at this particular example in great detail but after IBM sold its x86 server business to Lenovo, there may have been some work involved trying to rationalise the two distribution channels. IBM’s distributors would find themselves suddenly operating with a different vendor while Lenovo’s existing distributors would be very keen to get access to the IBM server products.
In the best of all worlds, there would be an almost complete overlap between the two vendors’ distribution channels and the disruption would be minimal. In the real world, that doesn’t happen very often. In most cases like this, there would have to be a period of transition where some distributors were axed and others brought into the fold. Whatever the specifics of the IBM/Lenovo situation itself, you usually have distributors from one vendor being assimilated into the other’s channel model and probably given the option of adding more products to their portfolio.
Opportunities arise, obviously, on both sides. Distributors of the vendor that has acquired the technology can get access to more products, different resellers and more customers. Distributors coming over with the acquired technology might have the chance to sell other products into their customer base.
But however well these situations are managed, there are always casualties. And it’s also an opportunity for rivals to exploit any period of uncertainty by trying to unsettle partners and customers further.
The same thing can happen when one distributor takes over another. Suddenly, the longstanding relationship between a reseller and a distributor is rudely disrupted by the arrival of another distributor. The reseller may not want to do business with that distributor, it may have consciously chosen not to have a relationship with that distributor in the past for legitimate concerns over an issue like service or support but now finds itself confronted with a stark choice: stay or go.
With events outside their control capable of presenting such difficulties to their business and day-to-day activities, I suspect most channel companies would be overjoyed if someone told them all they had to do was “mind your own business”. | 2019-04-21T11:03:17Z | https://www.computerweekly.com/microscope/opinion/Minding-your-own-business |

In addition to accomplishing our mission of revealing how the palm oil industry has improved many people’s lives, my own experience of putting together our Extraordinary Everyday campaign was revealing for me personally. It changed my perception of the industry I have worked in for the past two years. I initially thought the palm oil sector was a commercially-driven, business-first industry. But actually there is a lot more to it than that. I now know it has many good things to offer, that it is capable of uplifting the lives of rural communities. My meeting with Siti, a teacher at Ketapang school, also reminded me personally that even when we have no luxuries, being grateful for the things we do have is the real happiness.
That was what Siti Musyaropah said in our casual chat during a break time while filming for the Extraordinary Everyday video series. To me those words sounded so intriguing. I’m a career woman who is used to living the modern city life. I was surprised by the idea that she and her family could lead a happy life in such a very simple way.
Siti spends her free time with her husband and son.
Siti lives with her husband and son in a small house specifically built for our employees, which is surrounded by oil palm plantation estates, far from the city. There are rows of oil palm trees as far as the eye can see, and the wet soil all around can discourage anyone from leaving the house when it rains. She is fulfilled and content as she is able to do what she loves – teach – and spends time with her husband and son. This simple way of living makes her happy.
Living in a place with limited access to internet, telephone, and public facilities does not prevent Siti from enjoying herself and the life choices she has made. I still remember my struggle to just get 4G network for accessing social media (my job) and contacting my loved ones. “Miss Monica, try to stand under the tree in front of my house. The signal is usually good there,” said Siti with a smile never escaping her face. All the conveniences I am used to living in Jakarta, and take for granted, became the things I should be grateful for.
This gentle and humble young lady was born in Semarang and teaches at the Eka Tjipta Kayung Elementary School in Golden Agri-Resources (GAR)’s Kayung Estate. Her calling led her to serve in the advancement of children’s education right at the heart of the Ketapang regency, Central Kalimantan province.
Siti is a highly motivated teacher, and is especially passionate about poetry and speech lessons.
Despite living in a remote area Siti enjoys her life to the fullest. She teaches children of our employees and surrounding communities, important book subjects such as Mathematics and Science to improve their knowledge, and also non-classroom subjects such as environmental conservation, which is especially important because of the habit of local to clear land by burning remains deeply rooted. Learning why clearing land with fire is bad from a young age will allow these children to have a better understanding of the hazards of fire, and its impact on human health and the environment.
I was in awe when I felt the energy and enthusiasm from students of the Eka Tjipta Kayung Elementary School. Their good manners also left a distinct impression, in how they showed respect and courtesy to the teachers and all of us through smiles, shaking of hands and greetings – a typical sign of courtesy in this country.
As one of the country’s biggest most important industries, palm oil in Indonesia employs more than 16 million people, including Siti.

Have you watched the full story of Siti Musyaropah? Why did she leave her hometown to work in a remote area? Find the answer here.
The Extraordinary Everyday video series highlights three stories of those who work behind the industry. They are Punjung Renjani, a food technology expert who contributes to presenting healthy and nutritious oil palm products; Siti Musyaropah, making her contribution in the field of education as an elementary teacher in our oil palm plantation; and Yatimin, a company-assisted organic farmer who is capable of supporting his families and has now abandoned agricultural methods that are not environmentally friendly. | 2019-04-18T18:56:33Z | https://goldenagri.com.sg/gratitude-in-simplicity-my-valuable-experience-from-the-extraordinary-everyday-series/ |

People die everyday. They die from car accidents and homicides and war and diseases. But one of these deaths can be prevented. One of these deaths doesn’t have to happen. Heart disease is the leading cause of death in America, according to Medical News Today. At the top of the death list, heart disease may seem formidable, but it doesn’t have to be, things can be done to educate people, to research, to save lives with better technology. This disease may seem foreign to the Leonardtown High School community, to but it doesn’t have to be. Raiders, you can get involved with your high school Help A Heart Club.
Help A Heart aims to raise money for the American Heart Association, encourage heart health, and help “hearts” in the community through charity work. Within the club, students work together to make a difference well beyond their school community primarily through fundraisers and service events within the community.
The American Heart Association is the recipient of Help A Heart donations. The association aims “to improve people’s health and reduce the occurrence of cardiovascular diseases and strokes.” The American Heart Association is the nation’s oldest and largest voluntary organization dedicated to fighting heart disease. Comprised of 22.5 million volunteers and supporters, the American Heart Association is able to fund innovative research and promote health education thanks to the donations of millions. Research and education conducted by the American Heart Association has saved lives after diagnosis and prevented the onset of heart disease.
The club hopes that events and fundraisers will not only allow the American Heart Association to advance medical treatment and education of potential patients, but will draw attention to the severity of the disease and the importance of heart health for all high schoolers.
Help A Heart is a rather new club being offered at Leonardtown High School. The club was started in the fall of 2015 by Amrik and Ramnik Gill, two members of the graduating class of 2016. Though the club found some success in donations with Popsicle and hot chocolate sales, it was never really able to diversify and expand its service and fundraisers. Karson Harris, current vice president and Leonardtown senior wants “to help the club get off its feet and do real things that help the American Heart Association.” Members and leaders within the club have begun event planning and correspondence with the help of their sponsor, Julie Walsh, to achieve the goal of increasing service from last year.
Don’t let all of the goals of Help A Heart deter you raiders, the club needs you to help them make a difference. Help A Heart is still in need of more members and is offering leadership positions, so make sure to join before it’s too late. The club meets every other Friday in Mrs. Walsh’s room, E11. If you have any further questions feel free to contact Sami Schwalbe or Karson Harris, the club’s leaders. | 2019-04-23T10:46:57Z | https://www.lhsimprint.com/student-life/2016/09/30/making-a-difference/ |

This week's poll question on our homepage asks: "How should the school system make up snow days?" Well, the school board met in regular session last night on Monday, March 9, 2015, and amended the school calendar for the current 2014-15 school year.
The Board approved for the last day for students to be May 22. Additionally, students will not be session on May 19 (primary election day), and Spring Break remains March 30 - April 3.
"Having missed 8 days, I think we're very fortunate that we're going to able to get the kids out as early as we are," said Brian Alexander, Director of Pupil Personnel. "The students are going to be finished before Memorial Day, and with the historical weather that we've had since February 16th, we're really fortunate to be able to have an amended calendar that allows us to do that without affecting Spring Break, where many people may have already made plans." | 2019-04-18T15:10:46Z | https://www.edmonsonvoice.com/community/school-board-announces-updated-school-calendar |
Since Farmer's Wife has decided to take a little break as she prepares for a country Christmas (at least, I assume that's what she is doing!), I thought it would be fun to join a blog hop and offer a little Christmas cheer of my own, a charm pack of "Jovial" by Basic Grey.
So if you are feeling jovial, let me know what your favorite holiday treat is. A special cookie made with an old family recipe? Fudge? Hot spiced cider? Do tell. The Random Number Generator elf will choose a winner on December 16 so you have plenty of time to give me your secret recipe tell me what treat says "Christmas" to you.
And don't forget to join the hop for a chance at some other festive treats.
ETA: Thanks for playing, everyone! Comments are now closed.
My fave holiday treat is a glass of bucks fizz (champagne and orange juice) on Christmas morning with my breakfast, it's a little tradition hubbie and I have!
To me, the holidays mean family and friends- lot's a of parties and laughter in the upcoming weeks!
My favorite holiday treat is Ribbon candy or toy candy. It is locally made here in Nova Scotia and it SCREAMS Christmas. In fact, we have to get some for my mother every year!
We have several treats at Christmas time - toffee bars as a sweet, breakfast casserole on Christmas morning, and we all all my daughter-in-law from Hong Kong make potstickers.
Our favorite treat is a butter crumb coffee cake. We look forward to it Christmas morning.
I live in the south and my favorite treat is Pecan Pralines. They make a nice stocking stuffer.
My favorite Christmas treat is a cookie that my grandma made. It is still a favorite among my mother and all my siblings and our families. I have the inherited recipe...hehe.
Mom's Sugar Cookies! They're a pain to make and a pain to frost but oh so good.
it's not a sweet treat, but my grandmother-in-love's pierogi are the treat my whole family looks forward to on Christmas!
My favorite thing to do is have a big Christmas breakfast qith my family and friends who don't have loved ones in town. It is the best morning ever!
German peppernut cookies. thanks for the chance!
It's the one time of year that I make fudge - yummmmmm! Thanks for the opportunity to enter your great giveaway!
As a child I remember making/stealing different candies and other goodies with my mom. I have certain things I have to make each year, even if it is just for my family and I have to put it in the freezer for the next 6 months until it is gone. Christmas to me is truly celebrating the birth of Jesus.
Since marrying into a long line of Swedes, I have grown to love the homemade potato sausage every Christmas. My favorite cookie is Raspberry Shortbread Dreams. Yum!
Jovial...I don't even know what it looks like, but I love everything basic Grey, so I'm sure I'd love this too!
My favorite holiday treat is my mom's homemade toffee. I don't even know how to make it and I have it maybe every 5 years if I'm lucky, since I rarely see my mom on Christmas. the last time I had some I asked her for the recipe and she said, "Oh you don't want to make it. It's very hard and it took me 3 batches before I got this one right this time." So I said forget it! But it's so yummy; toffee on the bottom, dark chocolate spread over the top, and ground almonds (I think) sprinkled over the top. I may have to call her and get the recipe anyway. If you want it, let me know!
Each year I have certain recipes that have been passed down through the years and must be made - my grandmother's date cookies and my great aunt's toffee are the best!!!!
I love my mom's homemade sugar cookies!
Grandma's chocolate candy cookies! Yummy!
Mmmm, so many special treats at this time of year! Egg nog, fruitcake, peppermint bark, gingerbread cookies! I make an American version of Plum Pudding; it's a gingerbread cake with cranberries, served with a yummy sauce made of butter, cream, sugar, and vanilla! Scrumptious, and I'm sworn to secrecy about the recipe!
I lke the Peppermint Bark. And I LOVE wrapping gifts!!!
My favorite holiday recipe would have to be peanut butter marshmellow fudge. Sadly, I never make it anymore because the calorie content is outrageous, but it's a happy remembrance of Christmas to our adult children. Thanks for the chance to win your generous giveaway. Love me some fabric!
My favourite Christmas treat would have to be our Boxing Day dinner - cold turkey, chips and pickles...yummy! It's my favourite meal of the year!
I AM feeling Jovial. My favorite holiday treat has to be my grandmother's Danish Oatmeal cookie. So yummy. Darn it, now I will have to make them because I'm thinking about them.
I have none and definitely need Christmas fabric!!
My favourite treat is mulled wine, yummy! :) Although I could be tempted by Sarah's bucks fizz!
Haha, if I had a secret recipe, I would give it to you! Fave treat is anything pumpkin, chocolate, or cheesecake flavored!
My favourite is buttermilk cookies. They're a little cakier than your average cookie, they come with icing, and nobody who tries them can just have one. Mmmmm.
My favorite is english toffee-it's also the favorite of everyone I make it for.
My favorite holiday treat is my homemade cranberry bread. My recipe calls for mayonnaise & boy is it moist! Love it. Oh, and my fudge too.
My favorite holiday treat would have to be the Power Cookies my sister-in-law makes practically every year!
It's gotta be shortbread...every time.
Bread sauce! (and bubble and squeak on boxing day).
My favorite treat is marzipan cookies. Yum!
My favorite treat is cookie cut-out cookies!
My favorite christmas treat is Almond Bark Candy. It is just almond bark, peanuts, peanut butter, rice krispies and marshmallowsl mixed together. Nothing really christmasy except that my family always makes it at christmas time.
Mince pies and mulled wine!
Does apple cider count? Mmm...yum!
Chocolate. And Almond Stick. A dutch treat. Yum, yum!
My maternal Gramma's Cream Cheese Pie. Never have been able to find one to equal the ones she made and she took her recipie to the grave. That pie meant Thanksgiving and Christmas.
Lovely giveaway, Cindy! My favourite holiday treat is chocolate peanut butter balls. Yum, yum! I'll be sharing the secret recipe on my blog next week. :) thanks for the giveaway! I posted mine today too.
I allow myself one eggnog latte each year (Yup, already had it!) and my favorite treat are my aunt's Christmas Wreaths made from corn flakes and corn syrup (sounds, healthy, huh?!). Thankfully I don't have them every year, but my second fave is pumpkin pie, and I do have that annually!!
My favorite Christmas treat is Spiced Pecans!
I love plain and simple shortbread cookies. Just butter, sugar, and flour. Doesn't get any better...unless of course I put melted chocolate on top!
Shortbread and mince pies are favorites in our house! And we make a yummy slice called White Christmas which is kept in the fridge during a long hot Australian summer!
A favorite treat is Bacon Buns!! Yummy!
My 4 sons and husband would say Apricot Kolache, hands down, but they are a pain to make so I cheat by making a double batch of Peanut Blossoms, which are their second favorite. I used to make 12-15 different cookies but now things have changed and everyone is always on a diet!
Peppernuts, the crispy ones with anise and other spices dunked in a little coffee or milk!
Christmas treat? My hands-down favourite is my mum's Chocolate Hazelnut Cherry Rum Truffles, which are cute, addictive, and so so delicious!
Peppernuts - which aren't really nuts at all. My grandmother used to make them. They are really hard little cookie/biscuits - very hard to explain, but about the size of butter mints, if that makes sense. I may just have to try my hand at making them and post the recipe on my blog... eventually.
I really love homemade shortbread, my Mum makes some for Christmas every year. I also LOVE plum pudding & can always find room for seconds, my family jokes that as a non-drinker, it's the alcohol hit that does it for me. Thanks for the giveaway.
I love my Mom's Oatmeal Shortbread cookies-yummy.
When I was a kid we used to make peanut brittle. Haven't done it in years, but every time I see any, I think of Christmas.
We have these pumpkin cakes here in Portugal that are defenitely my favourites!
Home made sugar cookies...large ones! I make them in the shape of a star and eat the points first!
Love having pavlova on Xmas day especially my mum's one. Unfortunately my kids don't like it and we are not having xmas with my mum so I miss out again.
I love the peanut butter cookies with Hershey's kisses in the middle.
We always enjoy hot spiced cider on Christmas Eve after church.
Everyone, including me, loves my Buckeyes. A peanut butter ball dipped in chocolate. I only make them at Christmas cause they are so time consuming to make.
Making and eating Christmas cookies of all kinds!
My grandmother's chocolate fudge... hands down a winner every time.
We have a family cookie recipe called Spice Cookies. So good! Would love that charm pack of Jovial - I have a great pattern to use for a Christmas charm pack.
Favorite Christmas treat is making gingerbread spice cookies! The aroma in the house just warms you right up for the holidays! Thanks for the chance of a win...thinking about it just makes me "jovial" with a smile!

English Toffee and mint truffles are my most guilty Christmas pleasures. Thanks for the giveaway.
First is my DD's birthday and THEN Christmas...so it's party central around here! I USED to enjoy baking cookies- Christmas in my house growing up meant millions of cookies made- but my favorite was Oatmeal raisin. But we went dairy free this year and I still haven't mastered a yummy oatmeal yet....although I did make a TREMENDOUS Orange chocolate chunck cake with chocolate ganache icing that was dairy free today...I think I have a new favorite!
Thanks for your lovely give away.
A treat we love for Christmas is old fashioned plum pudding with custard. Delicious!
Favorite holiday treat - eggnog fudge! only time I so indulge.
i love mint hot chocolate and Peppermint Bark chocolate...notice a trend? i guess peppermint says Christmas time to me!! thanks for a chance.
My favorite treat involves anything chocolate.
I would be disowned by my children (and now their spouses) if I didn't make Bubble Bread for Christmas morning! And now they have added Mimosas.
I used to have a favorite cookie, now I just plain like fruit cake - not your grandma's fruitcake with that awful candied fruit - I make one that has dried fruit and nuts in it and I love it.
My favourite holiday treat is the English trifle we have for dessert. And there's always leftovers for several days!
my favourite treat is home-made almond bark....yummy!

My favorite time is when my duaghters and I make all the Christmas cookies for the season. Then the husbands and kids join us for dinner as we watch White Christmas and eat cookies. FUN!

Love fudge and hot apple cider as well. We sit the apple cider and cinnamon sticks on top of the wood stove so it stays hot and makes the house smell ohhh so good! Thanks for the opportunity to enter.

I love anything that's pepperminty!
Mulled wine! The smell of it... It is the only way I can actually drink red wine!

Pizzelles! But sadly my iron caught fire two years ago so I'm no longer able to make that cookie.
My favourite treat is Suchard chocolate turrone, a traditional spanish xmas treat!
Shortbread cookies that are made with a cookie press, they are a pain to make, but soooo delicious. Thanks.
Linzer torte cookies - just got the cutter to make them last year - and the cookies were yummy - and disappeared fast!!Sharing with family though is the best! Thanks.
1 large container Cool Whip, thawed. Again in a pinch you can use the smaller container.
Beat together cream cheese, marshmallow cream, and cool whip. Pour over apples and snickers and fold in, mixing till all covered and smooth. You can add maraschino cherries if you want.
Don't make too far ahead of time if serving guests. The candy bars will gradually melt into the dressing. It's every bit as good that way, but not as pretty. This stuff NEVER gets thrown away -- it's eaten to the last spoonful.

Before the cold winter season returns to Salt Lake City, Utah, you might want to consider your source of heat. There is a relatively new system that is gaining popularity in the U.S. and is expected to replace the ubiquitous forced-air system, which has dominated the American households in the last century. It’s called radiant heating.
Radiant heating is not a new system for residents of Salt Lake City and other places in the U.S. In fact, history points to the Roman Empire as having effectively used this technology. In the homes of the wealthy Romans, slim chambers called ‘hypocausts’ buttressed the walls and floors. Then small fires were lit around the building that fed into the hypocausts, thereby heating the interior spaces of the home.
A similar system was present at the same time in Korea, with their “Ondol.” This system used heat from cooking fires that would then be absorbed by strategically positioned stones, which would then radiate it outward into the home’s interior. While primitive, the idea of utilizing radiant heat is a testament to the effectivity of its design.
While it took centuries for radiant heat technology to come to fruition, it was worth the wait. Radiant heating is increasingly becoming a more viable option over the bulky furnace or block-wall radiators that required constant maintenance.
In the U.S., the current technology is radiant floor heating. This requires the installation of electric heating coils or water-heated tubing under the floors of the home. The heat emanates from the ground up and heats everything it touches. The U.S. Department of Energy’s Energy Savers website even stated that radiant heating is more efficient than the old forced-air heating because there is no energy lost through the ducts.
Cost. It is estimated that a U.S. home using radiant floor heating saves up to 25% in energy costs over the typical forced-air heated home.
Zoning. Forced-air heated homes have a distinct disadvantage because the heat in these homes is usually in the area closest to the source of the heat. The further the room from the source, the colder it gets. This old system also forces heating in areas that are not used at night, such as the living and dining room, while radiant heat can be independently operated to heat only the rooms that are being used.
Zero duct. Without the duct system, there is nothing to clean. With the radiant heat system, you eliminate duct works and the accompanying molds, mildews, pet dander, allergens, and viruses that are circulated through your home by a forced-air system. There are no adverse effects on your family’s health.
Quiet. When you turn on the forced-air system in your home, you are immediately treated to noise like that of a jet taking off. Who can sleep comfortably at night with all that clanking and whooshing noise? There is none of that in radiant floor heating.
Is It Just for New Homes?
While new homes are the ideal candidates for radiant floor heating, your old home can benefit greatly from retrofitting to this new system. Most folks opting to do this would pick one or two rooms, typically the kitchen and the bedrooms.
Radiant heating has come a long way since its inception, and today’s technology has allowed us to use it to its fullest. Nothing beats a quiet home that is adequately heated while there’s a fierce winter storm outside. | 2019-04-25T21:48:16Z | https://www.iggyplanet.com/2019/02/07/enjoying-the-warm-embrace-of-radiant-heating/ |
Port Askaig is a range of single malts from the famous whisky isle of Islay, launched back in 2009. Named for one of the two ports where most people enter the island (the other is Port Ellen so that name was taken!), the idea is that Port Askaig whiskies offer a gateway to Islay whisky with classic peat smoke and fruit notes. | 2019-04-19T20:43:41Z | https://www.masterofmalt.com/distilleries/port-askaig-whisky/rating-d/ |

WHAT: In the spirit of the original Awakin Circle that started 20 years ago, we'll gather for an hour of meditation, an hour of sharing "a-ha moments" loosely based on a reading from various wisdom traditions, followed by a home-cooked vegan dinner.
7:00PM An hour of collective silence, unguided, without any instructions or music. If you're new to meditation, check out this guide. Just come on in and have a seat on any available meditation cushion or couch space.
8:00PM A short reading from various wisdom traditions, following by a circle of sharing.
9:00PM We'll share a vegan meal together.
RSVP by submitting your email address below and you'll be emailed the details as we get closer.
There is no charge and no one is expected to bring anything. If you feel inspired to contribute, simply "pay it forward" in your own way. Over the years, people around the world have inspired to host these simple circles.
Thank you for joining us with your presence and willingness to hold space! | 2019-04-19T07:12:29Z | https://www.servicespace.org/event/view.php?eid=9004 |

Concerned Citizens of East Vincent Township | The Concerned Citizens of East Vincent Township (CCOEV) is a group of residents dedicated to providing updates about important township matters.
The Concerned Citizens of East Vincent Township (CCOEV) is a group of residents dedicated to providing updates about important township matters.
The Federation of Northern Chester County Communities (the Federation) voted on June 12 to continue to work on the necessary planning required to select the final 2 sites for a sports complex in the 9 communities of the Northern Federation (East Coventry, East Nantmeal, East Pikeland, East Vincent, North Coventry, South Coventry, Warwick, West Pikeland, West Vincent). As of May 2012 all 9 communities have adopted the Park, Recreation and Open Space plan see http://www.northernfederation.com/ for the final plan details.
There is $9,600 in extra state planning funds of the Federation that are held in trust by the “lead municipality” East Vincent.
On Tuesday at 4:45 PM at East Vincent Township (262 Ridge Road, Spring City, PA )the Board of Supervisors is to hold a discussion on extending this grant for one more year and adjusting the scope of services to allow the continuation of this high priority planning effort. At the previous Board of Supervisors meeting the two other supervisors (Mark Dunphy and Jane Peronteau) did not support the continuation of the planning process. They prefer to turn this hard earned money back to the State! They could refuse to send the request to the state.
It is critical that you come and voice your support to have these funds stay here in our region and be put to use to continue our planning efforts.
If you want to have a sports complex in our region and support our kids having a quality place to play sports in the future, it is really critical you attend this meeting and prevent them from returning the funds to the state.
The need for more fields is well documented in the Plan. The regional athletic leagues currently support 4,050 youth participants in 253 teams in 18 leagues playing on 12 public fields. We need 13 more flat fields, 19 more diamond fields for practice, games and field maintenance (rest). The region is deficient by 50% in meeting the need for fields for the sports league activities. Selection of two new regional sports complex facilities will be a vital element of a successful planning process.
East Vincent Township is about to give away it’s zoning controls and oversight over the Pennhurst property.
This proposed zoning gives Pennhurst just about every possible use for the property as a Use by Right.
The way the proposed uses are organized on the site minimizes controls.
• Under the original zoning for the site the compost use had a minimum of 50 acres, specific controls, and hours of operation listed. Now in the proposed zoning composting is a use by right with no minimum acreage, controls, or times of operation.
• The sole building currently legally used as a haunted attraction can be expanded to as many buildings as they want and expanded to a year-round Amusement Park Facility as a use by right without any controls.
Currently the roads to handle traffic levels for the current uses of composting and the haunted attraction are inadequate. Pennhurst has a current recreation use (one building by court order). As Pennhurst expands the “Amusement Park” it will not be subject to any traffic evaluation or Master Plan, even though the area is the largest parcel shown on the map (34 acres).
Don’t let them give away the township’s ability to exercise control over zoning.
Please urge the Supervisors to revise this ordinance so that it protects our residents first and preserves the quality of life in East Vincent Township.
I invite you and your members to join the Stoney Run community in opposition to the proposed variance to allow stadium-style lighting at the Spring-Ford Youth Athletic League fields. These fields run directly adjacent to Parkview Blvd and Deep Pond Drive in East Vincent and include 1-80 foot, 2 70-foot and 5 60-foot lighting poles. Strangely enough, residents of East Vincent are only allowed to play in the SFYAL for two years, so the lighting will have miniscule benefit to actual taxpayers of East Vincent. Additionally, as you can imagine, these poles will be quite an eyesore and will further move to destroy the property values and quality of life we enjoy in our subdivision and township.
I always try to give people the benefit of the doubt, which I had done with Jane Peronteau, candidate for East Vincent Township Supervisor, whom I only know by reputation. That was until I visited my mailbox on two separate occasions this week.
Jane Peronteau has taken the race for East Vincent Township Supervisor to a new low. Perhaps our local race is only a microcosm for what is happening across our country or maybe her campaign mailers truly reflect her personality. Whatever the reason or reasons, it reflects badly on her, her handlers, her political party and our township.
Saul Rivkin is a good man. He has volunteered his time and has done a great job as chair of the Historic Commission. He has a platform and a vision for East Vincent – one compelling community with a rural identity. Like Saul, it’s sophisticated and direct, what you see is what you get. It’s solid, honest and inclusive.
Jane’s platform is less clear. She wants to keep taxes low and will do all that’s necessary to keep us all safe and happy. She never says how.
Apparently the first thing to do to keep us all safe and happy is to dispatch Saul. When I read her mailers, they remind me of a small child covering her ears and yelling wildly so that she doesn’t have to hear the truth. It’s loud, it’s shrill and it’s mean. Her mailer is a tantrum and Jane needs a time out.
We all need a time out. We need to walk away from this kind of campaigning and remember that those running for office are our neighbors. We know them, we work with them and our kids play together. Most of us teach our children values by how we act. Our children watch everything we do and they take it all in.
Disturbingly, because of the content, Jane’s campaign mailer came addressed to my family. As a kid, I can remember anything addressed to my family was fair game for me to read and discuss. Mail is a big thing– it gets delivered and it’s official.
So now that man who always comes to my lacrosse games is a criminal?
What are we coming to? What price are we willing to pay for this calumny and slander. It cheapens and hurts all of us. What’s more it makes East Vincent look bad. We embarrass ourselves by demeaning, discounting and lying about our own potential leaders.
What’s really scary is that we are creating a “norm,” (an undiscussed way of behaving) that says that this kind of behavior is OK. We tacitly accept that campaigns are negative, politicians are ridiculed and government is useless. It’s divisive and hurts our democracy.
In contrast, Saul Rivkin has run a positive campaign in which he has put forth real ideas to improve East Vincent. Whether or not you like his idea of a village concept for Jones versus a mega mall, it’s an idea that should be debated instead of allowing a developer to come into our township and call the shots. The mature discussion of ideas is normal and natural in evolved societies and leads to the best ideas surviving. It’s the way East Vincent Township should do business.
Choosing debasement over debate is not only bad policy it is self-destructive. If you win by debasing your opponent, how do you heal afterwards? How do you work with these residents ever again?
In my mind, Jane has focused exclusively on casting her opponent in a negative light. It is like she forgot to tell voters anything positive about herself. She might have described what she actually would have done if she were entrusted with the office of East Vincent Township Supervisor but it’s probably too late to take the high road.
Meanwhile Saul Rivkin is already on it.
As an 18 year resident of this township, I suggest that neighbors and voters give Jane Peronteau a second chance by having her sit this one out and think it over. We need her energy- we need the collaboration of all of our residents- but we don’t need the anger and the hostility of her campaign approach.
Saul promotes local business over big box retail. He will strive to build a local economy to offset taxes and keep profits circulating here.
Saul is the Vice President of a small local bank. He has the financial and business experience which will facilitate his goal to revitalize the East Vincent business community. His leadership abilities will help him create a “Keep it Local Business Task Force” to increase our tax base without becoming totally overdeveloped with Big Box Malls.
Saul supports membership in the Phoenixville Regional Planning Committee. Saul supports collaboration with our neighboring townships and boroughs.
Saul believes that our zoning should be about protecting our community and our residents, not facilitating developers’ projects. We do not need the developers writing our zoning laws for their maximum benefit. Saul will strive to restore the lost trust between our residents and our township government which was all too apparent at recent township meetings.
CCOEV strongly encourages you to elect Saul Rivkin as our next Supervisor on Nov. 8.
On Tuesday evening, October 11, over 32 public officials and partners came together at Warwick Township to hear the draft plan results of the Northern Federation Parks, Recreation, and Open Space Plan.
Once the plan presentation was given, the townships had an open discussion about the plan. There were a number of great comments to strengthen the plan such as the fact that our region has been designated as a globally significant area to preserve. An extensive dialogue was held about how the townships can adopt the plan at no cost to them. Discussion focused on the flexibility of the implementation phases of the plan. The plan allows the townships to voluntarily work together to implement the parts of it that are of most importance to them.
Any concerns that a township or townships might not approve the Northern Federation Parks, Recreation, and Open Space Plan hopefully will be put to rest by last night’s meeting during which there were no serious objections raised to the draft plan.
Now at the eleventh hour, when the plan is nearing conclusion, East Vincent Township wants to break its obligation to the contract and stop all the work. Supervisors Dunphy and Funk now fear a potential but farfetched possibility that the Northern Federation communities could leave East Vincent liable for an $8,000 shortfall if two townships did not agree to the plan. All summer long, twenty or so municipality volunteers throughout the region have been working on the preliminary draft document that will be presented to all the municipal officials on Tuesday, October 11. The Northern Federation members have worked together to reach common ground on all the recommendations found in the plan. Neither Dunphy nor Funk has ever attended a single meeting or public presentation over the past two years and neither seems to have read the reports. Why do Dunphy and Funk suspect that all those who worked together would suddenly not agree to fund it? And if one township actually did drop out (an unlikely event unless it be East Vincent) a surplus of funds would still remain.
What transpired Wednesday at the Board of Supervisors meeting shows that all of a sudden Dunphy and Funk do not want East Vincent Township to live up to its contractual obligations. Dunphy and Funk reject the concept of working with the neighboring townships and athletic leagues to reach common ground for the goal of creating a park and recreation plan for all the residents of northern Chester County.
Furthermore, Dunphy and Funk seem incapable of holding a reasonable discussion. Funk used foul language during Wednesday’s public meeting and Dunphy talked over Supervisor McNeil, who is the EVT representative to the Northern Federation. Neither Funk nor Dunphy had the facts straight. This is another example of embarrassing behavior on the part of these two East Vincent Township supervisors. Once again, just as when East Vincent withdrew from the regional plan or when they adopted the Jones Motor zoning amendment, these two men have shown little or no ability to discuss an issue; listen to public input, reason, or facts; or to cooperate with any other township.
The athletic leagues, the park and recreation committees, the members of the conservation community, the O.J. Roberts school district, and the planning commissioners and supervisor members of the Northern Federation of Chester County all have diligently provided leadership to create a plan that is innovative, relevant, and fiscally sound for our families and our children. Yet, these two men sit back in isolation and harshly judge the good work of their neighbors and their own township volunteers. That’s just downright embarrassing. It’s time to vote for a change in East Vincent Township. Let’s vote for someone new who won’t exclude working regionally as part of creating a township we can be proud of. | 2019-04-18T10:32:21Z | https://ccoev.wordpress.com/ |
Modern software development is going through a massive change. Cloud computing, big data, new methods of developing products — the convergence of these factors (and others) has put the world of development into one of the most significant evolutions in how software gets designed, developed and managed.
A central part of this change is the DevOps revolution — new methodologies and tools to deal with the massively complex computing environments we live in today. At the same time, we are seeing the emergence of a game-changing technology, Docker, which is sweeping the development community with breathtaking speed.
Just google these terms yourself and you’ll see what I mean.
Disruption is occurring, and yet the tools are barely keeping up. Companies like Puppet Labs, Chef and SaltStack were unheard of a few years ago. They are now mainstream, successful companies.
Back in 1993, I was at the birth of the modern internet and this feels just like that — the tools are often rough, difficult, and buggy. And those companies (including mine) that got in and made it all work did very well indeed.
So, I have assembled some of the finest developers I know to help me create a new company, Meros, focused on tools for DevOps. Our first product will be specifically for Docker and will release later this year.
I have had fun working with and consulting dozens of companies over the past several years, doing several turnarounds and, generally, having a blast. But it’s time for me to go back to doing what I do best — running software companies.

Sheet pan sugar cookie bars are perfect for Memorial Day gatherings or Fourth of July BBQ’s! Soft, thick sugar cookie bars topped with a cream cheese frosting and decorated with red, white, & blue m&m candies for a festive and patriotic dessert.
I am so excited for today’s post! These happened on a whim, spur-of-the-moment thing. I *had to* go to Target yesterday (insert my husband rolling in eyes 🙂 ) and I saw these red, white, & blue m&m’s and stuck two bags in my cart. Not sure why because I didn’t need them and had no plans for them.
As I was driving home it struck me that Memorial Day is coming and of course the 4th of July. I don’t know about you but I LOVE to bring festive food to gatherings or picnics for the Holidays. These sheet pan patriotic sugar cookie bars are as festive as you can get! Don’t let the picture fool you cause these really are so simple to make.
Mix up a simple sugar cookie dough and bake it. Once cooled make the frosting and separate the m&m’s into the colors. This is a great chore to have the kids do. Unless yours are like my kids and they eat way too many of them. More specifically they eat the red ones. Not sure why my kids liked the red ones so much, but I ended up not having very many which is why I didn’t do as many red lines of the flag.
I chose to decorate the flag vertically. You could also turn the pan horizontal and decorate the flag that way. Either way works. Like I mentioned, I would have done more red lines but my kids ate too many red ones and I was a bit short.
And yes, I realize that I mixed up the stars. They’re supposed to be white stars with the blue behind them. I did blue stars with the white behind them. While decorating these I was attempting to answer some math questions for my son, getting my toddler another drink, and working around my other daughters painting set up she had on the kitchen counter. It was busy!
Make plans to have this dessert at your Memorial Day festivities or the Fourth of July! I know I will be making this again come July. And, you might even gain some “mom points” with your kids too. My son told me that I was “the best food artist” after he saw this 🙂 Enjoy friends!
Sheet pan sugar cookie bars are perfect for Memorial Day gatherings or Fourth of July BBQ's! Soft, thick sugar cookie bars topped with a cream cheese frosting and decorated with red, white, & blue m&m candies for a festive and patriotic dessert.
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare a cookie sheet (12"x17" or 13"x18") by spraying with cooking spray.
In the bowl of a stand mixer, or using a hand held mixer, cream butter and sugar until light & fluffy. This will take 2-3 minutes.
Add eggs, one at a time, mixing after each egg. Add vanilla and mix well.
In a separate bowl combine flour, salt, baking soda and stir with a whisk to combine. Add to the wet mixture and mix just until combined. Spread onto the greased baking sheet. To make this easier you may need to spray your hands with cooking spray to prevent the dough sticking to your hands.
Bake for 12-14 min, until edges look done but the center still looks "wet" and underdone slightly.
For the frosting: mix butter and cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add vanilla and almond extracts. Blend. Add powdered sugar in 1-2 cup increments until combined, then add milk a little at a time and mix until smooth and spreading consistency. Spread over cooled cookie bars.
Immediately after frosting, press the red, white, & blue candies into the frosting to resemble the American Flag.
Be careful to not overbake these. The edges should look done but not be brown at all. The middle will still look "wet" and underdone but as they cool they will set up nicely. If these are overcooked they will be really dry. The one time I cooked mine for 15 minutes they were dry and overdone. Mine are perfect at 13 minutes. | 2019-04-20T12:59:42Z | https://togetherasfamily.com/sheet-pan-patriotic-sugar-cookie-bars/ |

President's daughter will be unpaid presidential assistant.
WASHINGTON — Presidential daughter Ivanka Trump said Wednesday she will take a formal White House position without pay but will be subjected to federal ethics rules.
“I have heard the concerns some have with my advising the president in my personal capacity while voluntarily complying with all ethics rules and I will instead serve as an unpaid employee in the White House Office, subject to all of the same rules as other federal employees,” Ivanka Trump said in a statement issued by the White House.
Her official title will be assistant to the president; her husband, Jared Kushner, has the title of senior adviser, and also does not get paid.
In her statement, Ivanka Trump said that "throughout this process I have been working closely and in good faith with the White House Counsel and my personal counsel to address the unprecedented nature of my role."
The White House put out a statement saying it is pleased that Ms. Trump has decided "to take this step in her unprecedented role as First Daughter and in support of the President."
It added: "Ivanka’s service as an unpaid employee furthers our commitment to ethics, transparency, and compliance and affords her increased opportunities to lead initiatives driving real policy benefits for the American public that would not have been available to her previously."
Ethics groups that had questioned Ivanka Trump's volunteer role, and how it related to government ethics rules, complimented her decision to become an employee.
"This means that, like other White House employees, Ms. Trump now will be required to file Form 278 financial disclosure reports with the Office of Government Ethics," said Fred Wertheimer, president of Democracy 21. He noted that she is also now "required to comply with the financial conflict of interest rules."
Ivanka Trump is not the first child of a president to work for his or her father.
John Quincy Adams served President John Adams as a diplomat (and later became president himself). Anna Roosevelt became an unpaid personal assistant to her presidential father, Franklin Delano Roosevelt. John Eisenhower worked as an assistant to President Dwight Eisenhower.
Over the years, more than a dozen children have worked for presidential fathers. Most have been low-level secretaries, or in some cases campaign operatives, said presidential historian Joshua Kendall, author of First Dads: Parenting And Politics From George Washington to Barack Obama.
Ivanka Trump is unique in that she is a woman with high-level influence.
While Anna Roosevelt handled most ceremonial first lady-type duties for FDR, Kendall said that "it seems like Ivanka Trump will be someone with an input on policy."
In structuring her role, Ivanka Trump worked with Washington attorney Jamie Gorelick, who said her decision "reflects both her commitment to compliance with federal ethics standards and her openness to opposing point of view."
Ivanka Trump "will file the financial disclosure forms required of federal employees and be bound by the same ethics rules that she had planned to comply with voluntarily," Gorelick said. | 2019-04-24T05:19:16Z | https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2017/03/29/donald-trump-ivanka-trump/99795232/ |
We have reached the final day of Drag Week 2015 competition and with more than 200 racers having survived the rigors of 1,000 road miles, race fans can expect to see some spectacular passes down the drag strip at Gateway Motorsports Park. Here’s a brief guide of who to look for if you’re watching the live feed or at the track.
Tom Bailey leads Drag Week overall headed in his Pro Mod Chevy Camaro. Mathematically, he will likely be able to clinch a win with a “conservative” run in the high 6-second range. After he’s happy with a time, however, expect him to turn up the wick. He ran a 6.355 earlier this week and we think that car is capable of going much faster. Bailey’s main competition coming into Drag Week was expected to be Jeff Lutz, but Lutz was unable to complete the drive to the second day of racing. Lutz will be back for exhibition passes and likely chasing a number of records for street-licensed cars. Expect a big number from Lutz’s Pro Mod Camaro.
Bryan Goldstone likely will be unable to run down Bailey for the overall win, but a solid number should clinch his Unlimited Iron class win. Goldstone has made six-second runs this week and will need a big pass to make overall competition interesting against Bailey. Crowd favorite Joe Barry has yet to make a 6-second pass like he managed last year, but he has gone 200 mph—twice. We think he wants a 6-second timeslip so Barry should give it a go.
Tina Pierce from the Street Outlaws television show will race her maroon Chevy Colorado. She has averaged 8.686 in elapsed times across the week and sits third in the Pro Street Power Adder class.
If you like wheelies and wheel stands, check out Randy Belahar’s silver Pontiac Firebird, which has stuck its nose skyward all week. Jason Tabscott’s naturally aspirated white 1975 Chevy Camaro also launches hard with front wheels dangling off the ground for a hundred feet or so.
You can see some tripod action from Greg Trapnell’s bright-purple Holden HQ, which Trapnell had shipped up from Down Under. When the Aussie’s car launches, it lifts the left-front tire up but the car tracks straight.
A trio of battered-looking 1960s cars also have become fan favorites. Shane McLelland’s dirty-white “Crusty Nova” struggled with fuel-delivery issues in the middle of the week, but it’s back to running the quarter mile quickly after an 8.430 yesterday. Last year, McLelland cranked up the boost on the final competition day and stood the car on its rear bumper at launch, neatly folding the rear license plate in half.
Kevin Webb’s yellow 1969 Plymouth Valiant makes full use of the burnout box to abuse the car’s tires. His 40-second burnouts thoroughly demonstrate the wind direction for the day with tire smoke clearing out the mosquitos for a few miles downwind and giving Webb a nice interior fog for his trek down the strip.
Tom McGilton took a brand-new Chevy Camaro ZL1 to Larry Larson’s race shop in 2013 and had Larson build an insane 7-second drag car with all of the amenities put back in for road use. This is its maiden voyage in Drag Week and it may very well be the fastest car on earth with air conditioning.
Finally, a couple of 2-ton freaks should induce gaping jaws with their runs. George Gallimore’s 1970 Chevy Monte Carlo takes its vinyl top and plush interior appointments 190 mph through the top end of the racetrack, usually picking up gobs of speed after the 300-foot mark. Watching a comfy personal luxury coupe take off like a missile is one of the most staggering visuals in all of Drag Week.
Only slightly more mind-boggling is Nick Plewniak’s “Stretchy Truck,” a Chevy S-10 truck that has had the bed stretched about 10 feet with a massive twin-turbo engine setup set up behind the driver. Plewniak has already said he’ll crank the boost for his passes today since it survived the road miles and the Stretchy Truck will either go big or go home (in pieces).
That, of course, doesn’t even cover 10 percent of the field, so there will certainly be no shortage of spectacular action from the remaining 200 cars.

My Mummy's Pennies: Sainsbury's launch Bambino Mio Cloth Nappies with 20% off!
Sainsbury's launch Bambino Mio Cloth Nappies with 20% off!
From today you will be able to find them in 213 Sainsbury’s stores across the country with their multi award-winning miosolo all-in-one nappy, nappy liners, nappy cleanser, reusable swim nappies and potty training pants. They will have an even larger selection of products available at Sainsbury’s online too!
To celebrate the occasion Sainsbury’s are kindly offering their customers a fabulous 20% off Bambino Mio products in store!
I for one am really pleased to see a large mainstream retailer such as Sainsbury's take this step, I have been using Bambino Mio products for many years and have seen the range grow and develop from the 'pre-fold' system that was the first nappy my daughter ever wore to the reliable 'childcare friendly' MioSolo's that were loved by my daughter's nursery. I really hope that this will help to introduce the idea of cloth nappies to even more families and make it easier for them to get hold of accessories such as liners and nappy cleanser, asI always resented having to order online and pay delivery charges for small items. | 2019-04-20T18:11:46Z | https://www.mymummyspennies.com/2014/01/sainsburys-launch-bambino-mio-cloth.html |

Blueline Tours, Inc., operates tours throughout the United States. A study has indicated that some of the tours are not profitable, and consideration is being given to dropping these tours to improve the company’s overall operating performance.
Bus drivers are paid fixed annual salaries; tour guides are paid for each tour conducted.
The “Bus maintenance and preparation” cost on the previous page is an allocation of the salaries of mechanics and other service personnel who are responsible for keeping the company’s fleet of buses in good operating condition.
Depreciation of buses is due to obsolescence. Depreciation due to wear and tear is negligible.
Liability insurance premiums are based on the number of buses in the company’s fleet.
Dropping the Historic Mansions bus tour would not allow Blueline Tours to reduce the number of buses in its fleet, the number of bus drivers on the payroll, or the size of the maintenance and preparation staff.
(Prepared from a situation suggested by Professor John W. Hardy.) Abilene Meat Processing Corporation is a major processor of beef and other meat products. The company has a large amount of T-bone steak on hand, and it is trying to decide whether to sell the T-bone steaks as is or to process them further into filet mignon and New York cut steaks.
As mentioned above, instead of being sold as is, the T-bone steaks could be further processed into filet mignon and New York cut steaks. Cutting one side of a T-bone steak provides the filet mignon, and cutting the other side provides the New York cut. A one pound (16-ounce) T-bone steak cut in this way will yield one 6-ounce filet mignon and one 8-ounce New York cut; the remaining ounces are waste. The cost of processing the T-bone steaks into these cuts is $0.17 per pound. The filet mignon can be sold for $4.40 per pound, and the New York cut can be sold wholesale for $3.80 per pound.
Hallas Company manufactures a fast-bonding glue in its Northwest plant. The company normally produces and sells 44,000 gallons of the glue each month. This glue, which is known as MJ-7, is used in the wood industry to manufacture plywood. The selling price of MJ-7 is $34 per gallon, variable costs are $21 per gallon, fixed manufacturing overhead costs in the plant total $229,000 per month, and the fixed selling costs total $300,000 per month.
Strikes in the mills that purchase the bulk of the MJ-7 glue have caused Hallas Company’s sales to temporarily drop to only 13,000 gallons per month. Hallas Company’s management estimates that the strikes will last for two months, after which sales of MJ-7 should return to normal. Due to the current low level of sales, Hallas Company’s management is thinking about closing down the Northwest plant during the strike.
If Hallas Company does close down the Northwest plant, fixed manufacturing overhead costs can be reduced by $70,000 per month and fixed selling costs can be reduced by 10%. Start-up costs at the end of the shutdown period would total $13,000. Because Hallas Company uses Lean Production methods, no inventories are on hand.
Bronson Company manufactures a variety of ballpoint pens. The company has just received an offer from an outside supplier to provide the ink cartridge for the company’s Zippo pen line, at a price of $0.58 per dozen cartridges. The company is interested in this offer because its own production of cartridges is at capacity.
Bronson Company estimates that if the supplier’s offer were accepted, the direct labor and variable manufacturing overhead costs of the Zippo pen line would be reduced by 10% and the direct materials cost would be reduced by 20%.
* Includes both variable and fixed manufacturing overhead, based on production of 100,000 boxes of pens each year.
The new machine would require considerable maintenance work to keep it properly adjusted. The company’s engineers estimate that maintenance costs would increase by $5,010 per month if the machine were purchased. In addition, the machine would require a $97,000 overhaul at the end of the sixth year.

a. The game would have a 5-year useful life and a negligible salvage value. The company uses straight-line depreciation.
b. The game would replace other games that are unpopular and generating little revenue. These other games would be sold for a total of ¥23,000.
