For your interior. I always assumed the "passage through the house was simply a run through the occupied rooms.
Adkin shows the passage to be - just that- a kind of tunnel through the building with a door at each end - (what we in the North used to call a Ginnel).
The door on the right of the main house in the photo being the "passage". - this means troops could escape from the courtyard directly
Some diagrams of the battle
Initial deployment;- 1.30 - 2.30
3.00 - 5.00 p..m.
After the French capture.
Sorry for the poor photography. the box at the bottom of the last diagram continues; - "main gate.The garrison....retreats through the passageway to the Garden. Baring finds the garden untenable and abandons La Haie Sainte around 6.35".
Other stuff; - Lt Graeme of the KGL states that "we had no loopholes excepting three great appatures, which we made with difficulty ....in the morning......Later in the day the Enemy got possession of one near the pond and fired on us."
Adkin ; " This meant shooting over the walls was often not possible and seriously restricted through them. Graeme and his men had to lie or kneel on the roof of the piggery to fire at the enemy."
And "loopholes" (presumably made by the soldiers themselves) "were few and there were no platforms built behind the walls"
(This was because the pioneers had been sent to Hougoumont before La Haye was garrisoned.)
For these reasons I Personally think the most casualties occurred in the Orchard, in the Barn - defending the open doorway and the garden - although until to the end this was more easily defended being walled on the east side, covered by the main Allied lines to the north and the 95th rifles to the north east.
If the French only had access to one large loophole for most of the day I imagine serious injuries caused within the building complex itself would be relatively low until the gates and Barn were finally breached - (just my own thoughts).
Brendan Simms, in his book "The Longest Afternoon" also suggests some stragglers from the 8th Line Battalion may have made it to the farm buildings.
A lot has been made of Baring's statement that he only mustered 42 men "at the end". In saying that he was only referring to his own command alone (the 2nd Battalion), and it does not account for those wounded, those left in the house, those taken prisoner or those who wandered off after the retreat "in search of ammunition" etc. Most of the garrison did ultimately survive.
Baring himself stated that after they rejoined the main line in the sunken road, and despite all his pleas, the whole command crumbled.
Brandis, (Baring's Aide de Camp), ran into him "completely isolated without a single man of his Battalion".
Baring eventually staggered back to the rear where he found a horse and returned to the front alone. He tried to restore order there but was ignored and is reported to have heard men shouting "shoot Baring!" in their haste to retreat
Fortunately, this was just as the general advance had been ordered. He met his Divisional quartermaster-sergeant and they finally settled down on some straw to sleep - a humble end to an extra-ordinary day.
Phew! think I need to go and lie down myself now. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

5 Ways Ell Teachers Are Navigating The 2020 School Year
In the ever-evolving 2020 back to school season, all students have been impacted in various ways, but none more than English Language Learning (ELL) students and their families. Without tools to assist in translation for daily communication on lessons and learning, ELL students will miss out, resulting in them falling behind. Educators have an immediate and pressing need to have the tools necessary to communicate with all students to ensure there is no student left behind.
Pocketalk saw this need and surveyed 100 ELL educators across the country to help identify the tools educators need to foster inclusive learning environments. The survey uncovered a variety of current information on translation needs in the ELL education community for the 2020 e-learning school year.
The Top Situations Educators Need Translation Assistance
Grades + School Work
During Zoom Meetings
Translation Is Imperative In Daily Communication
62% of teachers use translation daily to communicate with parents of students, with 35% and 3% using translation weekly or monthly, respectively.
Phone Is The Preferred Tool For Daily Communication
Compared to all respondents, teachers who use translation daily to communicate with parents of students are more likely to communicate using phones (43.5%) and less likely to communicate using email (11.3%).
Communication Will Rapidly Evolve
99% of educators stated that the current virtual environment changed the way they will plan to communicate with ELL students and their families.
Email Is A Secondary Choice
38% of teachers are most likely to primarily use phones with parents of students, followed by email (20%) or a messaging platform (17%) like Microsoft Teams.
Pocketalk, the global leader in connecting conversations and removing language barriers, donated 100 devices to educators across the U.S. that teach English Language Learner (ELL) students as part of its first-ever Back to School program, an effort to equip teachers with the tools they need and foster inclusive learning environments for all families, at home or in the classroom. During the application process, recipients of devices answered eight survey questions to reveal the evolving language needs of the education community and its communications styles ahead of an unconventional school year due to the ongoing pandemic. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Near the lone pile with ivy overspread,
Fast by the rivulet's sleep-persuading sound,
Where 'sleeps the moonlight' on yon verdant bed--
O humbly press that consecrated ground!
For there does Edmund rest, the learned swain!
And there his spirit most delights to rove:
Young Edmund! famed for each harmonious strain,
And the sore wounds of ill-requited love.
Like some tall tree that spreads its branches wide,
And loads the west wind with its soft perfume,
His manhood blossomed: till the faithless pride
Of fair Matilda sank him to the tomb.
But soon did righteous Heaven her guilt pursue!
Where'er with wildered step she wandered pale,
Still Edmund's image rose to blast her view,
Still Edmund's voice accused her in each gale.
With keen regret, and conscious guilt's alarms,
Amid the pomp of affluence she pined;
Nor all that lured her faith from Edmund's arms
Could lull the wakeful horror of her mind.
Go, Traveller! tell the tale with sorrow fraught:
Some tearful maid perchance, or blooming youth,
May hold it in remembrance; and be taught
That riches cannot pay for Love or Truth. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

The VAT registration threshold
From 1 April 2025 the VAT registration threshold remains at £90,000 and the deregistration threshold at £88,000.
Removal of VAT exemption for private school fees
Private school fees for education and vocational training will no longer benefit from VAT exemption and will be subject to VAT at the standard rate (20%). The change will apply to terms beginning on or after 1 January 2025 although certain prepayments made after 29 July 2024 will also be included.
Stamp Duty Land Tax changes
Individuals who purchase additional residential properties, such as second homes or buy-to-let properties, in England and Northern Ireland, generally pay Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) at 3% above the standard SDLT rates. This rate is increased to 5% for transactions with an effective date (usually the date of completion) on or after 31 October 2024.
Similar changes are made for companies and other non-natural persons purchasing residential property in England and Northern Ireland.
In addition, there is also an increase in the single rate of SDLT payable by companies and other non-natural persons when purchasing residential properties worth more than £500,000, from 15% to 17%, from the same date.
Making Tax Digital for Income Tax Self Assessment
The government is committed to delivering Making Tax Digital for Income Tax Self Assessment, which is supposed to start in April 2026. The government will expand the rollout of the programme to those with incomes over £20,000 by the end of this Parliament and will set out the precise timing for this at a future fiscal event.
HMRC has announced a variety of compliance initiatives, which include the following:
- investing in additional HMRC compliance staff and debt management staff
- modernising HMRC debt management IT systems
- pre-populating tax returns with Child Benefit data (for the purposes of the High Income Child Benefit Charge)
- increasing the late payment interest rate charged by HMRC on unpaid tax liabilities by 1.5%. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Benjamin Mendy wept today as he was cleared of rape and attempted rape.
Mendy, 28, was accused of carrying out sex attacks on two women at his £4 million mansion.
He was cleared after three hours of deliberation by the jury at Chester Crown Court this afternoon.
Mendy, 28, had faced a retrial on one count of rape and one count of attempted rape during lockdown-busting parties. He is now a free man but without a club after his Man City contract expired at the end of June.
The French international full back was cleared of six counts of rape and one count of sexual assault after a court case in January.
Mendy wept when he was cleared. His lawyers said he would now 'rebuild his life' - and a likely return to top flight football.
Jenny Wiltshire, Head of Serious & General Crime at Hickman & Rose said: 'Benjamin Mendy would like to thank the members of the jury for focussing on the evidence in this trial, rather than on the rumour and innuendo that have followed this case from the outset.
'This is the second time that Mr Mendy has been tried and found not guilty by a jury. He is delighted that both juries reached the correct verdicts.
'It has been almost 3 years since the police started investigating this matter. Mr Mendy has tried to remain strong but the process has, inevitably had a serious impact on him.
'He thanks everyone who has supported him throughout this ordeal and now asks for privacy so he can begin rebuilding his life.' | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Inspired by the Japanese favorite Chicken Kaarage, Tokyo Fried Chicken is made by marinating tender chicken in sweet soy and a special spice blend for several days to create a unique umami flavor, then hand-breaded, freshly fried and served with a choice of Hanabi Hot Mayo or Sweet & Spicy sauce.
The process results in a lightly crispy, juicy and flavorful chicken that is available in a traditional Yoshinoya Bowl and also as a snack-sized portion of 4 pieces.
To celebrate the launch, Yoshinoya will be offering Tokyo Fried Chicken for a limited time at $3 for a 4-piece snack when you purchase any bowl during November 2023. Tokyo Fried Chicken can also be ordered as part of a fresh bowl which includes a choice of rice or udon noodles, protein and vegetables. Bowls are available in regular, large, combo and combo XL sizes.
You can find Tokyo Fried Chicken at Yoshinoya’s more than 100 restaurants chainwide for a limited time.

National Recovery Month: "Every Person. Every Family. Every Community."
September is National Recovery Month, and state health officials are highlighting people in recovery from substance use and mental health conditions, while also promoting treatment and recovery practices.
The theme of Recovery Month is "Every Person. Every Family. Every Community."
Director of the NCDHHS Division of Mental Health, Developmental Disabilities and Substance Use Services Kelly Crosbie said just as people recover differently from any other medical disease, people recover from mental health conditions and addiction in different ways as well, and it’s important to have multiple pathways to support wellness in all communities.
As a result of national lawsuits against opioid companies, the state will receive more than $1.5 billion to provide recovery support and other resources to communities.
North Carolina has a variety of programs, most of which include peer support specialists, to help those in recovery reach their goals. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Big data is more than just some trending business phrase that’s big on style and low on substance; it brings with it tangible benefits for any company willing to use it. The advantages of leveraging big data are real and oftentimes far-reaching, which is why so many organizations have adopted big data for their own operations. But that doesn’t mean big data has prepared a paved road to the future. Pitfalls are still plentiful, and few represent as much of a problem as big data security. Businesses may be willing to use big data, but they must also be aware that security remains a top concern. This is in part because technology is advancing so rapidly that the solutions to security problems often fall behind. If a business wants in on the enabling world of big data analytics, it’ll need to be aware of some of the biggest security concerns first.
Designed Data Security
Big data gives many businesses capabilities they didn’t have access to before. That’s one of the main draws of using massive amounts of data, but unfortunately, big data and many of the platforms that use it weren’t designed to address security concerns. That means many platforms don’t have encryption, policy enablement, compliance, risk management, and other security features built-in. If organizations want to ensure their data is secured, they’ll need to see to it on their own by building those features themselves.
Many customers may feel uncomfortable with the idea that businesses are able to collect such detailed information about their identities, behaviors, motivations, and other sensitive facts. Some companies respond to these concerns with data masking policies and aggregating data sets, but those methods aren’t always effective. Those with the right equipment could put data sets back together in order to re-identify individuals. Taking away privacy could lead to increased security risks, especially if the data involved contain sensitive corporate information.
Big Data Complexity
One of the leading causes of big data security problems can be summed up in one word: variety. The more complex data sets are, the more difficult it is to protect. Big data diversity can come from several different areas. Data forms could be structured or unstructured. Data sources may originate from email files, servers, cloud applications, mobile device data, and much more. Data consumers can be anyone from high-level executives to customers and business users. More diverse data simply means more work is needed to protect it.
Home Depot. Target. Neiman Marcus. JP Morgan Chase. These are just a few of the many data breaches that have occurred recently. Large amounts of data are a goldmine for cybercriminals, and companies that collect and store it are big targets. The recent Sony hack is another example, with experts estimating as much as 100 terabytes of data were stolen or leaked. Data breaches are now far too common and will likely not go away anytime soon.
Data Security Funding
One would think the increase in cyber attacks would mean increased spending on IT security to protect big data, but that’s not always the case. Most experts agree that around 10 percent of a company’s IT budget should be spent on security, but the average is under 9 percent. Without the requisite resources, organizations will find it harder to protect their companies’ data.
Big Data Skills Gap
Solving these security problems would be possible even with limited resources if the right people for the job were on it, but many businesses are experiencing a big data skills gap. Too few people who are data experts and data scientists are on staff, making it that much more of a challenge to address security shortcomings. It has become difficult to find the right people with the right skills to handle the work, which only increases the severity of the problems.
Even if a company goes to great lengths to protect big data, if they sell some of that data to third parties, risks could increase. Currently, there are few laws that address brokered data, which certainly compounds the problem. There are also a few ways to make sure data brokers are held accountable for the data exchanged between parties, making it an even more challenging task to ensure all big data is protected.
Based on these concerns, it’s easy to see why so many organizations are worried about big data security. With enough resources, skilled workers, a detailed big data strategy, and a commitment to customer privacy, many of these concerns can be directly addressed. If these problems are solved, businesses will be in a better position to truly take advantage of all that big data has to offer.

Information is recorded in vast interconnecting networks. Each idea or image has hundreds, perhaps thousands, of associations and is connected to numerous other points in the mental network.
Paradoxically one of the greatest advantages of mind maps is that they are seldom needed again. The very act of constructing a map is itself so effective in fixing ideas in memory that very often a whole map can recalled without going back to it at all. A mind map is so strongly visual and uses so many of the natural functions of memory that frequently it can be simply read off in the ''mind's eye.'' | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Evidence-based interventions to reduce falls in people aged 65 and over
03 Jun 2024, 12:45 - 13:30
Collaboration: RCN Older People's Forum and RCN Trauma and Orthopaedic Nursing Forum
The risk of falls increases for people aged 65 years and over, this session will cover how to assess risk of falls, and to support people at risk.
Although different settings will have varying guidelines, the risk of falls for older people is the same in all nations and areas. The session will be evidence-based and include discussion around falls guidelines from the World Health Organization and the British Geriatric Society, with recommendations from quality-assured research in the subject.
Topics covered will include:
- what is a fall?
- who is at risk of falls – conditions and medications
- how to assess who is at risk of falls, and how to reduce the risk of falls
- how health care professionals can support individuals at risk of falls.
Aimed at all health care professionals and nursing students from any setting, including the independent sector, the session will be of particular benefit to any health care provider working with older adults in a care home, acute hospital or rehabilitation setting.

Blood testing is the standard option for checking glucose levels, but a new technology could allow non-invasive testing via a contact lens that samples glucose levels in tears.
“There’s no noninvasive method to do this,” says Wei-Chuan Shih, a researcher with the University of Houston who worked with colleagues at UH and in Korea to develop the project, described in the high-impact journal Advanced Materials. “It always requires a blood draw. This is unfortunately the state of the art.”
But glucose is a good target for optical sensing, and especially for what is known as surface-enhanced Raman scattering spectroscopy, says Shih, an associate professor of electrical and computer engineering whose lab, the NanoBioPhotonics Group, works on optical biosensing enabled by nanoplasmonics.
This is an alternative approach, in contrast to a Raman spectroscopy-based noninvasive glucose sensor Shih developed as a Ph.D. student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He holds two patents for technologies related to directly probing skin tissue using laser light to extract information about glucose concentrations.
The paper describes the development of a tiny device, built from multiple layers of gold nanowires stacked on top of a gold film and produced using solvent-assisted nanotransfer printing, which optimized the use of surface-enhanced Raman scattering to take advantage of the technique’s ability to detect small molecular samples.
Surface-enhanced Raman scattering — named for Indian physicist C.V. Raman, who discovered the effect in 1928 — uses information about how light interacts with a material to determine properties of the molecules that make up the material.
The device enhances the sensing properties of the technique by creating “hot spots,” or narrow gaps within the nanostructure which intensified the Raman signal, the researchers say.
Researchers created the glucose sensing contact lens to demonstrate the versatility of the technology. The contact lens concept isn’t unheard of — Google has submitted a patent for a multi-sensor contact lens, which the company says can also detect glucose levels in tears — but the researchers say this technology would also have a number of other applications.
“It should be noted that glucose is present not only in the blood but also in tears, and thus accurate monitoring of the glucose level in human tears by employing a contact-lens-type sensor can be an alternative approach for noninvasive glucose monitoring,” the researchers wrote.
“Everyone knows tears have a lot to mine,” Shih says. “The question is, whether you have a detector that is capable of mining it, and how significant is it for real diagnostics.”
In addition to Shih, authors on the paper include Yeon Sik Jung, Jae Won Jeong, and Kwang-Min Baek, all with the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology; Seung Yong Lee of the Korea Institute of Science and Technology, and Md Masud Parvez Arnob of UH.
Although non-invasive glucose sensing is just one potential application of the technology, Shih said it provided a good way to prove the technology. “It’s one of the grand challenges to be solved,” he says. “It’s a needle in a haystack challenge.”
Scientists know that glucose is present in tears, but Shih says how tear glucose levels correlate with blood glucose levels hasn’t been established. The more important finding, he says, is that the structure is an effective mechanism for using surface-enhanced Raman scattering spectroscopy.
Although traditional nanofabrication techniques rely on a hard substrate — usually glass or a silicon wafer — Shih says researchers wanted a flexible nanostructure, which would be more suited to wearable electronics. The layered nanoarray was produced on a hard substrate but lifted off and printed onto a soft contact, he says.

Baltimore synth-romantics Future Islands’ sixth record continues the band’s evolution in the spotlight.
The spotlight first fell when their performance on the Late Show with David Letterman went viral some years ago. The band’s popularity since rests on the emotional weight of Samuel T Herring’s lyrics and the consistently gorgeous synths accompanying them.
New album As Long As You Are was recorded by the band in their home town of Baltimore. The founding trio of William Cashion, Gerrit Welmers and Herring has expanded to a four-piece, with drummer Mike Lowry joining as an official member and songwriter on this album, having previously been a touring member of the band. The album is the product of significant evolution in their sound too; it is their best music yet.
Future Islands are one of the most exciting live acts you’ll ever see. The romantic synth songs on this record will be played out alongside Herring’s over-the-top dancing, chest-beating and throaty delivery when we can eventually see live music again. I can’t wait.
Lead singer Herring’s voice is distinctive. He manages to convey the sensitivity of the subject he’s singing about, while only ever being several seconds from sounding more primal, perhaps exhibited best on For Sure, one of the quicker tracks on the album.
Herring has said that he is now “happy for the first time in a long time,” which allowed him to feel freer to explore [himself] and accept “certain truths” in his new music. While the album isn’t universally happy in tone, or in lyric, there are moments which capture his newfound contentedness. On Plastic Beach, he sings about the happiness he’s found in accepting himself and the excitement he feels for the future with his new partner. If that sounds saccharine, wait till you hear it. The passion and urgency in his delivery makes it both authentic and captivating.
Gerrit Welmers’ synth work on this, and Future Islands’ other records, add a romantic and emotional depth to their music. New addition Mike Lowry makes his presence known with his drumming on the track Moonlight. It’s one of the gentler tracks on the album, but the drumming coda on the record allows the song to linger long after Herring has finished singing. It’s meditative.
Born in a War is my favourite pick of the album’s eleven tracks, starting out as a mid-tempo song, with a guitar line to die for. The song transforms midway through into a rave, complete with 90s house synths to close out the track. The anti-gun anthem questioning those who feel it necessary to have “shotgun shells under every roof,” Herring yelps, “Look into a strong man’s eyes.” The devastating, quiet line at the end of the song, “Bloody hell”, tells us everything we need to know about Herring’s view on guns in the USA.
Herring is happier, his band sound better than ever. Future Islands continue to impress. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Therese Coffey, the Work and Pensions Secretary, caused a stir this morning when she admitted in a Sky News interview that her department is preparing to deal with as many as four million unemployed in the coming months.
Coffey’s figures are based on unemployment forecasts made in July by the Office for Budget Responsibility. The OBR forecast was part of a worst-case scenario that the unemployment rate would peak at 13.2% in the first quarter of 2021. However, its more optimistic forecast suggested that unemployment could peak at 11.9% in this year’s fourth quarter, or 9.7%. in the third quarter. Even the more optimistic forecast suggest up to three and a half million people unemployed.
If these estimates are accurate, we’re looking a deluge of layoffs as the government’s various furloughing schemes are closed at the end of this month and replaced by the less generous Job Support Scheme.
According to recent figures released by the Department of Work and Pensions, 2.3 million people were looking for work while on Universal Credit as of August 13. If we take this as a proxy for unemployment it gives us a rate of 7.3%.
How much higher these numbers are set to rise is unclear. A large proportion of the rise may be due to the furlough becoming less generous on August 1. Since then unemployment could have continued to rise, or stabilised thanks to various factors such as the push to get workers back into office and the relative success of the Eat Out to Help Out Scheme.
Under the new Job Support Scheme system companies are being subsidised to help keeping on employees and switching them to part-time work. The companies will pay employees for the time worked, while they and the government will both pay one third of the hours not worked. Empoyers are left paying much more to keep on employees than they were under the furlough scheme.
Inevitably, this change over will lead to more job losses. When announcing the new scheme, Chancellor, Rishi Sunak, made it clear that the government cannot support every job but hoped to do what it could to protect as many viable jobs as possible.
Hospitality and leisure are the two hardest hit sectors with thousands of jobs already lost. The combination of the new 10pm curfew and the new part-time working scheme is likely to see many more jobs be shed. Under the JSS it costs businesses more money to employ two workers working half their usual hours, than one worker working full time. The obvious incentive is to lay off one worker and keep the other. If firms refrain from doing so it will likely be because their employees are high-skill an/or they have invested in training them.
An attempt to offset another jobs cull is the £1000 bonus for every furloughed worker continuously employed until the end of January 2021 will likely have a limited effect. According to calculations by the Resolution Foundation, workers need to be earning under £1,020 a month for the bonus to offset JSS costs, which does seem well aimed at low-paid service workers.
However, workers also need to be earning over £625 for the business to claim the bonus creating a narrow window for businesses, and making it complex for them to assess cost benefits. Those that are retained are then liable to being laid off once their employed has cashed in the £1,000 unless the economy has picked up substantially by then.
The self-employed are also facing pressure. During the first six months on the pandemic grants given to them covered 70-80% of their usual profits. This is dropping to 20% in the first three months, with another grant after that. While the figure is supposed to match the level of support given to employees benefitting from the JSS functionally it works out to a lot less. The blindspots in the programme that is now being replaced are also not being covered, with the newly self-employed and those who paid themselves via dividends as opposed to a salary receiving no support.
With the outlook so grim, it is no surprise the government is preparing for the worst. . | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
I was assigned for a story for the Laureus World Sports Awards 2014.
Based on the feedback on my instagram, FB, FB page and tweets, it seems that the highlight of the event wasn’t so much the sports event, the awards or the sport personalities but the host himself – Benedict Cumberbatch!
Here’s a photo for you to drool over (yes, for fans only). He was barely metres away from my photographer Joanna Gough (check out her FB page on her photography portfolio & services – https://www.facebook.com/GOUGH.asia) and she managed to snap really fabulous shots of the stars on the red carpet that night.
Great job Joanna! <3
And here’s my Malay Mail article, published 1st of April 2014.

Recuperator, heat exchanger.
They are both synonyms of an innovative concept that over the years has developed in tandem with the development of the applications of our products. In addition to the heat exchanger, today we can in fact also speak of a heat sink and a noise attenuator just to name a couple.
While it is true that commercial applications such as energy-saving ventilation continue to represent a large part of our production, attention to ecology, attention to waste, and vision towards new technologies, are springing up new opportunities in the industrial, process engineering, data handling and residential fields
The residential field includes: passive houses, small/medium condominiums, bars and restaurants; yachts and small/medium-sized boats: where energy saving is closer to the final user. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

A jurist, humanitarian, and internationalist, René Samuel Cassin (October 5, 1887- )* is one of the world's foremost proponents of the legal as well as the moral recognition of the rights of man. Neither a pessimist nor an optimist, the peace laureate, eighty-one years old when awarded the prize in 1968, confessed that "men are not always good" but he has based much of his life's work on the premise that human responses can be constructive if states will transform the conditions that breed ill will into those that recognize the dignity of man. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

We might be living in the generation of all things Retro, but even in the 20th century designers were looking backwards for inspiration. This Orange Deco Clutch from River Island is a perfect example of when two eras meet well, drawing design ideas from both the 20s and the 70s at once.
The burnt orange shade and large clutch design of the bag have a simple but instant seventies feel, providing a great basis for the unusual use of deco design on top. The contrasting silver allows the structural design of the metallic deco detailing to pop.
It's available from River Island now for £25. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
No, these are not little badges for your coat. This is oversized vintage music pin badge art by Tapedeck Art.
But yes, they are pin badges, Just not the sort you can stick on your jacket. Although they have the same look as a vintage pin badge you might own or you might see in a vintage sale.
The designs are the work of Tapedeck Art, also known as artist Tony Dennis, who was inspired by the Super Size Art project by Morgan Howell, which boosted the size of classic singles, turning them into huge artworks for your wall. You can see the Super Size Art website here, which is well worth a browse.
So is this collection, which follows a similar idea, but instead of vintage vinyl, these are vintage pin badges turned into giant 3D pin badges using a process that took around nine months to perfect.
The badge design was painted from an original vintage badge, then mounted on an aluminium badge before being aged and resin sealed to look just like an actual vintage piece. It can be easily hung on the wall too as it is comes with wall fixings to do just that.
If you are a fan of the bands in question you will probably fall in love with at least some of these. But regardless of fandom, these badges are a talking point and a great feature for any music lover’s wall.
Take your pick from the likes There Jam, The Specials, The Smiths, The Damned, The Clash, David Bowie, Joy Division and many more, but note that they don’t come cheap.
This is ‘proper’ art with a price to match. The finished badges are substantial at around 60 x 60cm and are in limited editions of 10 each. If you want one, they retail for around £550 each.
Note that there are further editions available from directly from the artist too. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
If you’re a prepaid Telstra customer stuck overseas, you have until 13 October to switch.
Telstra is ditching international roaming on prepaid: Here are your options
Telstra has announced that it will be removing international roaming features on its prepaid plans from 13 October 2020. That means any Telstra prepaid customer currently stuck abroad will no longer be able to make or receive calls and texts unless they take action before that date. Telstra has promised that prepaid roaming features will return until mid-2021, but in the meantime, prepaid customers need to seek out another solution.
It’s a dicey time for Telstra to pull the rug out from its prepaid customers stuck across the ditch. While any smartphone these days can still access the internet via a WiFi connection, there are many crucial, everyday Australian services that require an Australian phone number to operate: net banking being the most obvious example that comes to mind.
If you’re a prepaid Telstra customer living or stuck overseas, don’t fret. There are plenty of options that allow you to both keep your number and continue roaming until you return home. Just make sure you do it before the 13 October cut-off date (whatever that is for your timezone).
Upgrade from Telstra prepaid to Telstra postpaid SIM-only
The quickest and easiest solution would be to upgrade your existing prepaid service to a Telstra postpaid SIM-only service. This means you’ll receive a bill (rather than recharge) but every Telstra SIM-only plan is available on a month-to-month arrangement (meaning you can switch again at any time). Upgrading from prepaid to postpaid can be done via Telstra’s website (just make sure to select the ‘Upgrade an existing service’ after you select a plan and have your existing mobile number ready to enter.
You’ll then have to choose your roaming option. You can either add on the $10-per-day Travel Pass, which gets you 200MB per day plus unlimited talk and text. Or you can opt for PAYG international roaming, where you’re only charged for what you used based on Telstra’s international roaming rate, which can be found here.
Here’s a quick glance at Telstra’s most popular SIM-only options.
Port your Telstra number to another provider
Every mobile provider in Australia will allow you to port your Telstra prepaid number. Meaning you can sign up for a new service, but retain your Telstra mobile number. There are plenty of prepaid providers that offer International Roaming packs, and postpaid options that offer some decent roaming deals, like Vodafone’s popular $5 per day deal (which lets you use all your inclusions, like data, calls and text, for an additional $5 per day).
Whichever provider you decide to go with, you just need to make sure you check the option to port your old number over. This will be phrased differently across different websites, but so long as you’re not requesting a new mobile number, you should be on the right track.
Here are a few popular prepaid plans that have options for international roaming options/add-ons.
And here are a few postpaid SIM-only providers with decent roaming offers. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Our Senior Team
The Headmaster, Philip Wayne, joined RGS in 2015 having been Head of Chesham Grammar School for 8 years. He studied Music at the University of Manchester. The Headmaster is very proud of the RGS community and thrives on his aspiration and restlessness to pursue constant improvement.
Deputy Headmaster Iain Wilson studied at Sheffield University. Having been educated at Aylesbury Grammar School, Iain could be described as a Bucks boy through and through. In fact, the only time he has ventured further afield both academically and professionally was to the University of Sheffield where he studied Neuroscience and began his teacher training. He started his teaching career at Dr Challoner's Grammar School and subsequently an Assistant Headship at the Royal Latin School in Buckingham. As a keen sportsman, he values the importance of physical activity on mental health and wellbeing and this provision at RGS was one of the factors that drew him to our school. Respect, integrity and aspiration are values that he feels passionately about and embodies innovation at every opportunity.
Director of Boarding and Assistant Head, Jon Scourfield studied Physical Education and balanced the early part of his teaching career alongside playing professional rugby league. He has had considerable experience within the pastoral aspect of RGS, both for our youngest and oldest students, having previously been Head of Year 7 and Head of Sixth Form. Jon led the rugby at RGS for almost a decade, has been involved for over twenty years and still coaches the senior forwards. Jon believes that boarding offers unique opportunities to further develop the character and social skills of our young men. Whether it be Sport, Music, DofE, CCF or the myriad of other co-curricular opportunities on offer at RGS, it is the development of the whole person that makes RGS such a positive environment for our students.
Assistant Head Dave Durning joined the RGS in 2009, as an NQT. He studied Business at University and has held roles as Business Studies Subject Leader, Head of Year 10/11 & Head of Student Development, before taking up his current role. His main responsibilities are Student Development and Safeguarding. Dave is very proud to work at RGS and delights in supporting the school's vast co-curricular programme.
Assistant Head Tim Fossey has joined the Senior Team this September having recently completed 10 years with the school he began his teaching career with. He has previously been a Boarding Tutor and Maths Assistant Subject Leader and most recently the Head of Year 8/9 for the previous 5 years. Tim is now responsible for Data and Reporting within the school. He is a passionate supporter of RGS’s co-curricular programme and firmly believes the more opportunities we can give our students, the faster they will find that spark of passion and belonging that inspires them to succeed in all they do.
Assistant Head Sabrina Lawson joined the RGS in 2009. Her main responsibilities are Teaching and Learning, Staff Professional Development and Initial Teacher Training Coordinator. She believes strongly that giving staff the opportunities for professional development will always benefit our students. She studied German and Spanish at Manchester University and did her PGCE at Exeter University. She has had several roles at RGS including Subject Leader for Spanish, Head of Modern Foreign Languages and Associate Assistant Head. As a keen traveller, Sabrina has also spent a lot of her time here organising and running co-curricular activities for the students and has participated in many World Challenge trips.
Assistant Head and Director of Sixth Form Grant Sheehan studied History at King’s College London and after working in the private sector, began teaching in 2013. He has worked locally in selective and non-selective schools in various roles including both academic and pastoral and is committed to achieving excellent progress for all students. His main responsibilities are for leading the Sixth Form team, Innovation and Pupil Premium. He believes that it is an incredibly exciting time to be working in the Sixth Form and he looks forward to it becoming coeducational in September 2025.
Associate Assistant Head, Mrs Shradha Tan, has been an academic member of staff at the RGS for over 20 years and in this time has held a number of posts ranging from being an Advanced Skills Teacher in MFL, Director of Language College to being the Assistant Director of Sixth Form since 2011. She has always championed the education of students at RGS and has developed many initiatives that have contributed to the breadth of opportunities that are on offer to the students in the Sixth Form. Mrs Tan is currently studying for a Counselling Diploma and is learning to play the saxophone.
Finance Director, Adrian Jones, is an FCCA (Fellow member of Association of Chartered Certified Accountants), and during his 25+ year career, has enjoyed a progressive Board-level career, creating and driving the strategies to turnaround and add value to businesses by creating the solutions that maximise cost efficiency, revenue, operational performance, and drive reputation and expansion across global corporate organisations. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
This project is and will always be Open-Source, meaning you are encouraged to build a sensor yourself! However, you can also purchase an assembled sensor at ribbitnetwork.org.
The sensor uses a wi-fi radio to connect to the internet in order to send sensor data to the Ribbit Network Database and receive Software Updates from the Ribbit team.
The sensor rounds the GPS location that it publishes to the public database. This means that it is not possible to specifically locate the sensor. Additionally, the sensor does not contain or publish any personal data, limiting privacy concerns.
The power cable is 1.5 meters (5 feet) long. An extension cord can easily be added if you need a longer cord.
Atmospheric monitoring from space is an exciting development that has a lot of potential. However, it's not a magic bullet solution. The scientific consensus is that the best option is to develop both technologies that can work together:
Climate tech satellites are the MOST expensive possible solution. For example, NASA's OCO2, cost $467.7 million. Currently, the ground-based frog sensors cost ~250 to build and assemble. At those prices, we could build 1868000 ground-based sensors for the cost of one satellite. And as you'll see in the next bullet point, we need more than one.
- Satellites have only a limited number of measurements that they can take in a day. If you check out the "Approximate usable daily soundings" you can see how many measurements a day a sat can take. Using the OCO2 example again, it can take about 100,000 1.3 × 2.2 km squares a day. At those rates, it's very difficult to measure a meaningful portion of the earth with any frequency. I believe that having real-time constant monitoring of an area is important to help catch peak emission events like a power plant natural gas plant turning on briefly during peak load. It's hard to imagine a cost-effective satellite solution that could provide that.
- Satellites are good to monitor GHG emissions from the major sources, at the macro level. They are less effective to monitor emissions at the hyper-local level due to their lower resolution.
- Finally, the satellite data is awesome, but many of the sensing technologies are still unproven. They need a "truth" dataset to validate that the satellites are producing accurate data. A ground-based network like Ribbit is an excellent complement to a sat network because it can provide that truth!
The concentration of CO2 in the air is measured using a Nondispersive infrared (NDIR) sensor. These sensors are a type of spectroscopic instrument, that is they measure light and how that light interacts with a material at specific wavelengths. In the case of measuring CO2, light at a wavelength in the mid-infrared part of the electromagnetic spectrum is emitted, passes through a small chamber that is open to the outside air, and a detector then measures the intensity of that light. Light at the mid-infrared wavelength of 4.26 μm (4.26 x 10^-6 meters) in particular is absorbed by CO2 molecules. That means that a portion of the emitted light will effectively be blocked by CO2 in the air in proportion to the amount of CO2. The difference between the intensity of the emitted light and the intensity of the detected light can be used to determine the CO2 concentration. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Hey y'all, I wanted to share all of my favorite beauty products I have used in the month of July. I am going to start doing this at the end of each month to share products I have discovered and even review products that I disliked. Just click the picture of the product and it will take you directly to the website.
First, I wanted to talk about my weekend. On Friday, I was in a fashion show for Apricot Lane and Azure Swimwear. When I agreed to this, I figured it would be a small event at a boutique. Come to find out, it is at a popular bar downtown Charleston. This past week was so stressful for me, because I had a lot of work to do and this was always in the back of my mind. I had basically been nervous for it since I agreed to it! You should have seen me before the show....I was shaking! I was also freaking out because I am only 5 feet tall, I don't have what people consider a "model body", and I have never strutted down the runway. I do have to brag about my boyfriend. He came to support me, which is so nice considering it was a fashion show! Right before the show, I went out to see him and he knew I was so nervous. He said "Alex, you were meant to do this, even your Instagram name is Rinnavating the Runway". I thought that was so cute! I am so happy I got up the nerve to walk in the show! The adrenaline from having to change really fast between each look and the energy from the other girls and the crowd was so exciting! I truly loved every minute of it! I just wanted to mention this, because if you are shy it is hard to get out of your comfort zone. This just proves if you do overcome your fear, you will probably end up loving it! No one should let their shyness keep them from great opportunities and remember that confidence is KEY!
Morphe Makeup Brushes: Morphe has the best brushes! The Complexion Goals Brush Collection comes with 5 synthetic and natural face brushes and a makeup bag. The collection includes an angle brush, buffer brush, fan brush, contour brush, and powder brush. My favorite is the powder brush! It's so fluffy and soft. The brushes make your makeup go on so smoothly and evenly. Morphe has multiple sets of brushes and I would recommend any of them!
Marc Jacobs Bronzer: I just bought another palette of this because it is a limited-edition and it is the best bronzer I have ever used! Not only does it smell good, it goes on so smooth and leaves a flawless matte finish! It is a neutral bronze shade that would look good on so many skin tones! The packaging is beautiful! I would recommend ordering this online, because the last few times I went to a Sephora, they were completely sold out. It is pricey, but I promise it's worth it!
Dr. Brandt: This brand is my new favorite skin care line. I actually got both products in my Ipsy/Boxy Charm subscriptions. First, is the vacuum cleaner pore purifying mask. You just put the mask on any areas of concern and leave it on for about 5 minutes. The mask breaks down any dirt and oil to unclog your pores. The results are amazing and it makes your skin feel so clean and healthy. The next product is the No More Baggage eye de-puffing gel. This reduces dark circles, puffiness, and bags. I put this on under my makeup after I moisturize my face.
Ardell Eyelashes: In the past I would occasionally wear fake eyelashes, but only for special events. I wore them for the fashion show I was in and it reminded me how much I love them! I would wear the Natural 110 lashes during the weekends and the Glamour 105 for special occasions, because they are a little more dramatic. I love the natural lashes for an everyday look, because they just add some length and volume without looking too drastic.
Tarte setting spray: Ready, Set, Radiant skin mist is my new favorite setting spray. I have only tried drugstore setting sprays and haven't loved any of them. I received this one in my July Boxycharm. That shows how amazing that subscription is, because this product is $25 and I only pay $20/month for Boxycharm and receive 5 full-sized products! This setting spray can be used on a fresh face to create an illuminating natural look, or use it over makeup to help balance and set your makeup. I highly recommend setting your makeup, because it helps it stay on all day! I also use this spray to give my skin a little boost and keep it refreshed.
I have a bad obsession with makeup, so feel free to ask about any reviews for products! Have a great week! | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Rep. Mike Bost (IL-12) voted Wednesday evening for a federal spending package to fund the government through March of next year and require proof of citizenship to register to vote. Due to overwhelming Democrat opposition to the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act reforms, the bill failed to pass the House. Congress must approve legislation funding the government by September 30th or risk lapses in essential services.

“Congress has two urgent priorities before the end of September: funding the government and ensuring only legal ballots from U.S. citizens are cast in the election. We must accomplish both objectives but have little time to do so. That’s why I supported linking passage of the Continuing Resolution with the SAVE Act. Sadly, House Democrats – some of whom voted for the SAVE Act earlier this year – stood in near unanimous opposition to the plan, killing both bills just 12 days before a shutdown. Rest assured, I will not back down in the fight to ensure Southern Illinoisans have access to essential government services and the comfort of knowing we’ve protected the integrity of the most important election of our lifetimes.”
Congressional leaders are expected to resume efforts this week to end the spending impasse before the end of the month.

Obama Administration Denial White House and State Department Deny Anti-Semitic Nature of Paris Attacks
Washington, D.C. - Over the past two days the Obama administration has shockingly denied the anti-Semitic nature of the attack on a kosher grocery in Paris last month.
Yesterday during an interview with Vox, President Obama said, "it is entirely legitimate for the American people to be deeply concerned when you've got a bunch of violent, vicious zealots who behead people or randomly shoot a bunch of folks in a deli in Paris."
Today, White House press secretary Josh Earnest and State Department press secretary Jen Psaki went to great lengths to avoid admitting the attacks were anti-Semitic. Josh Earnest's response can be found here and Jen Psaki's response can be found here in videos by the Free Beacon.
RJC Executive Director Matt Brooks said:
"It is impossible to understand the lengths this administration goes to defend a blatant anti-Semitic terrorist attack in Paris. Who is this President worried about offending by calling this an anti-Semitic attack? Remembering the innocent people killed by these terrorists because of their religious beliefs should be paramount for our President. These statements by the President and his administration send the wrong message to both the Jewish community and the terrorists who are responsible for these heinous acts." | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

The Princeton office of Reitler Kailas & Rosenblatt LLP is representing Finxact, developer of a cloud-native banking solution that is powering digital transformation throughout the financial services sector, in its agreement to be acquired by Fiserv, a leading global provider of payments and financial services technology, according to a Feb. 7 announcement.
Fiserv was an early investor in Finxact, which was founded in 2016. Finserv will pay about $650 million to acquire the remaining ownership interest in the company.
Finxact provides clients with a modern, real-time and extensible banking solution that empowers financial institutions with enhanced access to their data. Finxact can help organizations of all sizes launch new products and digital capabilities with maximum flexibility and scalability via a robust set of modern APIs. As financial institutions and companies across all industries around the world embrace new fast-growing digital technology for embedded commerce, finance and payments.
“Joining with Fiserv is a tremendous opportunity for Finxact,” said Frank Sanchez, chairman and CEO of Finxact. “We recognize that Finxact’s technology can serve to level up the industry’s delivery infrastructure, and crucially at a time when banking is undergoing transformative changes. We will be better positioned to serve a far greater number of institutions, of all sizes, when combined with the breadth and depth of Fiserv capabilities.”
The transaction is subject to customary approvals and closing conditions and is expected to close later this year.
“This is an extraordinary transaction for an extraordinary company … a true testament to hard work and an unwavering commitment to success. We are immensely grateful to have served as Finxact’s general legal counsel and honored to be a part of their story,” said Greg Petroff, partner of Reitler Kailas & Rosenblatt LLP.
The acquisition of Finxact will further Fiserv’s digital banking strategy and expand its account processing, digital, and payment solutions. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Reiki & Restorative with Chris
Sun, Sep 15
Chris will lead you through a classic restorative yoga class. Savor the deep relaxation of supported postures, allowing your body to release stress & tension.
Time & Location
Sep 15, 2024, 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM
Scotch Plains, Yoga Studio, 2015 Westfield Ave, Scotch Plains, NJ 07076, USA
About the event
Chris will lead you through a classic restorative yoga class. Savor the deep relaxation of supported postures, allowing your body to release stress & tension. Reiki (pronounced ray-key) is a Japanese energy healing technique that improves profound relaxation and inner peace. It is done by having a practitioner lay their hands on various areas of the student’s body and become a bridge facilitating the flow of chi or ki in Japanese throughout the student’s body. Students might feel a warm flow of energy or vibration that promotes deep relaxation, and stress-reduction, and can even alleviate pain and tension in the body. Restorative yoga is a style of yoga that uses props to support the body in positions of comfort and ease to facilitate better health and overall balance. Restorative yoga aims to bring us back to an understanding of rest in a world that is constantly on the go. Students will be guided into poses of comfort and lay in them for 10 or more minutes while being supported by cozy pillows and blankets. The use of props in this practice allows the body to safely and gently open and release any tension you may be holding onto in the mind or body. By combining both practices students can experience profound inner healing and clarity on both a physical and energetic level. As students are guided into restorative poses, Chris will go around and give the loving energy of reiki to each student to promote deeper relaxation and healing. Included in the practice will also be a grounding meditation/breathwork, some gentle movement, and pulling of oracle cards for intention setting and guidance. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Pizza, that beloved and iconic dish, has transcended its humble origins to become a global sensation. A slice of pizza, with its perfect blend of crispy crust, flavorful sauce, gooey cheese, and assorted toppings, has captured the hearts and taste buds of people around the world. In this exploration, we delve into the fascinating history, intricate science, and undeniable pleasures of pizza.
The Origins of Pizza
Pizza’s history is a rich tapestry woven together with the threads of time and culture. Its roots can be traced back to ancient civilizations, including the Greeks and Egyptians, who baked flatbreads with various toppings. Neapolitan vendors began selling pizza, often topped with simple ingredients like tomatoes and cheese. This early version of pizza was affordable and quickly gained popularity among the working class.
The Science Behind Pizza
Pizza-making is a science as much as it is an art. The components of perfect pizza dough, sauce, cheese, and toppings each contribute to its mouthwatering appeal.
Dough: The foundation of any good pizza is its crust. The dough’s composition and preparation are critical. A combination of flour, water, yeast, and salt undergoes fermentation, creating bubbles of carbon dioxide that give the dough its characteristic lightness and texture. The quality of the flour, the hydration level, and the kneading process all play pivotal roles in determining the crust’s final taste and texture.
Sauce: The sauce is the flavorful glue that binds all the elements together. A classic pizza sauce is made from ripe tomatoes, olive oil, garlic, and basil. The science here lies in the balance of acidity, sweetness, and umami. The acidity of tomatoes, the sweetness of ripe fruit, and the umami from garlic and basil harmonize to create a vibrant, well-rounded sauce.
Cheese: Mozzarella, with its melt-in-your-mouth quality, is the cheese of choice for most pizzas. Its high moisture content ensures a creamy texture when melted. The science of cheese-making involves the coagulation of milk proteins and the formation of curd, which is then aged to develop its flavor and texture.
Toppings: Toppings offer endless creative possibilities. Whether you prefer the simplicity of a Margherita with fresh basil and tomatoes or the bold flavors of a meat lover’s pizza, the art of balancing ingredients, cooking times, and flavors is paramount.
The Pleasure of Pizza
Pizza is more than just a meal it is an experience that transcends cultural boundaries. The pleasure of pizza can be distilled into several key elements:
Versatility: Pizza is a canvas for culinary creativity. It can be adapted to suit various tastes and dietary preferences, from vegetarian and vegan options to gluten-free crusts and gourmet toppings.
Comfort: There is something undeniably comforting about the familiar flavors and textures of pizza. Whether it is a quick slice on the go or a leisurely dine-in experience, pizza provides a sense of comfort and nostalgia.
Universality: Pizza transcends cultural and geographical boundaries, making it a universally beloved dish. It is a food that can be enjoyed in virtually every corner of the world, and its adaptability ensures that it can accommodate local tastes and ingredients. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

While Maruti has raced ahead of Tata in Q3, 2024, the latter still maintains a lead in overall sales in last 4 quarters
Tata Motors was the first to offer two distinct products (Nexon + Punch) in the sub-4-meter SUV segment. The strategy was a huge success, allowing the company to acquire the largest market share in this space. Tata has been the No 1 in Sub 4m SUV space. But the tide seems to be turning now, as Maruti has better numbers to show than Tata Motors in Q3, 2024.
Maruti beats Tata in sub-4m SUV sales – Q3, 2024
As a response to Tata’s combo of Nexon + Punch, Maruti had introduced the Fronx SUV in addition to Brezza. A similar strategy has also been used by Hyundai with the combo of Venue and Exter. Maruti also has the Jimny in the sub-4-meter SUV segment. Its sales are relatively low, but still matter when combined with the sales of Brezza and Fronx. The sales gap between Maruti and Tata Motors in the sub-4m segment in Q3, 2024 would have been lower if Jimny was not available.
Looking at the sales date, one can see that Tata Motors was comfortably ahead of Maruti in Q4 2023, Q1 2024 and Q2 2024. However, it is also important to note that across all the three quarters, the sales gap has been narrowing. In Q4 2023, Tata Motors was ahead of Maruti by 13,769 units. This sales gap reduced to 12,771 units in Q1 2024. The numbers further reduced to 8,898 units in Q2 2024. And in Q3 2024, Maruti has taken a lead of 6,858 units over Tata Motors in the sub-4m SUV segment.
Maruti sales in Q3 2024 were 89,994 units, as compared to 83,136 units of Tata Motors. However, if we look at overall sales numbers from Q4 2023 to Q3 2024, Tata Motors is still ahead of Maruti in the sub-4m SUV segment. During this period, Tata Motors had average monthly sales of 30,362 units in comparison to 27,981 units of Maruti. Tata’s total sales is at 3,64,344 units, as compared to 3,35,764 units of Maruti.
Maruti sub-4m SUVs Vs. Tata sub-4m SUVs
Highest quarterly sales of Maruti sub-4m SUVs (Brezza + Fronx + Jimny) was 89,994 units in Q3 2024. In comparison, Tata sub-4m SUVs (Nexon + Punch) had registered the highest quarterly sales in Q1 2024 at 99,598 units. Tata sub-4m SUVs quarterly sales were above 90,000 units in 3 quarters. But during the given period, Maruti sub-4m SUVs never crossed quarterly sales of more than 90,000 units.
Maruti Brezza recorded the highest sales of 19,190 units in August 2024, a record in the last twelve months. Tata Punch is quite close, with highest sales of 19,158 units in April 2024. Nexon’s highest sales was in January 2024 at 17,182 units. Maruti Fronx highest sales during the last 12 months was recorded in April 2024 at 14,286 units. Jimny’s best sales performance was in July 2024 at 2,429 units.
Can Maruti maintain the lead?
It remains to be seen if Maruti is able to maintain this lead. Sales fluctuations are normal and results of one or two quarters do not represent a permanent change. For example, Maruti had raced ahead of Tata Motors in April 2024 as well. But Tata again took the lead in May and June 2024. It will be interesting to see the sales numbers in the coming months. As they may indicate a change in consumer preferences. Tata Motors will be keen to identify the reasons for lower sales and take corrective action. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Volkswagen Virtus 50k sales – Paces VW India Journey
28 Months Since Launch, Volkswagen Virtus 50k Sales Milestone Reached. Averaging nearly 60 units sold daily since its 2022 launch, this model continues to shape the VW’s current journey in India. Year-to-date, over 17,000 units have been delivered, marking a steady trajectory for the sedan. The brand collectively surpassed one lakh domestic sales with the Virtus and Taigun models by the second quarter of 2024. Capping off the third quarter, Volkswagen India achieved 6.5 lakh domestic wholesales (to date).
India 2.0 models, including the Virtus, have significantly contributed to Volkswagen’s domestic sales, accounting for nearly 18.5 percent of total volumes to date within the past three years. Safety has been a crucial aspect of the Virtus’s appeal, featuring six airbags as standard equipment and more than 40 safety features. With a 5-star GNCAP safety rating, the sedan provides peace of mind to its occupants, addressing a critical requirement in the Indian market. Focus on comprehensive safety measures aligns with Volkswagen’s global safety standards, further solidifying the Virtus’s position as a reliable choice in its segment, appealing to a wide spectrum of customers.
Virtus 50000 Sales Milestone Plays a Crucial Role
Performance options for the Volkswagen Virtus include two TSI engine variants: a 1.0-litre TSI and a 1.5-litre TSI Evo. These powertrains cater to varied driving preferences, from daily city commuting to more spirited highway driving. The 1.5-litre variant, in particular, offers advanced features such as cylinder deactivation technology, promoting a balance between power and fuel efficiency. This versatility allows the Virtus to meet diverse consumer expectations in the sedan segment.
The Indian automotive industry has seen fluctuating trends in the premium sedan category. Volkswagen Virtus, however, maintains its standing through consistent performance and customer-focused enhancements. The model’s journey since its debut reflects a carefully strategised market entry aimed at capturing the attention of discerning buyers seeking a blend of safety, performance, and style.
Adapt and Thrive: VW’s Sales Strategy
Virtus’s role in Volkswagen’s broader market strategy includes its alignment with the India 2.0 project, aimed at delivering models that resonate with local customer preferences while adhering to global engineering standards. By leveraging modular platforms and locally manufactured components, the brand has been able to offer competitive pricing without compromising quality.
Virtus and its sibling model, Taigun’s sales, highlight Volkswagen’s adaptability in responding to consumer demands. The combined sales figures have not only set benchmarks for the brand but also illustrated acceptance of VW’s offerings. This success is instrumental in shaping Volkswagen’s outlook toward future product development.
60 Virtus sedans sold Every Day
Ashish Gupta, Brand Director, Volkswagen Passenger Cars India, said, “We are immensely grateful to all our
customers for making the Volkswagen Virtus India’s No.1 selling premium sedan. The Virtus continues to resonate strongly with our customers, and crossing the 50 000 sales mark is a testament to the product’s success in the Indian market, making it India’s most loved premium sedan. Ever since its launch, we have sold nearly 60 Virtus sedans every day, and we are glad that Virtus has carved its own cult following, as it continues to sustain the sales momentum, despite headwinds in its segment.”
He added, “We have also crossed the 6.5 lakh domestic wholesales milestone in India and are grateful to the extended Volkswagen family for their immense love and trust in the Brand. With our latest, feature rich and advanced India 2.0 models – Taigun and Virtus, we have also witnessed significant success, with both models contributing to nearly 18.5 % of our overall domestic sales since inception.” | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

What is it?
Most countries impose tax on the worldwide income earned by a resident of that country and on income earned by
non-residents on locally earned income. Therefore someone can be double taxed because they can be taxed in the country of residence as well as in the country of source where the income was earned.
Certain countries have agreements to avoid double taxation. Normally these agreements provide that income of a certain nature will be taxed only in one of the two countries or may be taxed in both countries and the country of residence will allow a credit for the tax which has been imposed by source country. South Africa has agreements with a number of countries to prevent double taxation of income.
Who is it for?
A non-resident, who is not a tax residentof South Africa andreceives income from a source in South Africa needs to apply for a directive for the relief from South African tax on pension and annuity income (excluding lump sums) or who wants a refund of tax that was withheld in terms of the Income Tax Act No. 58 of 1962 (the Act).
The request should be in terms of the Double Taxation Agreement (DTA) that is in place between SA and the
non-residents country of residence. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
I had found 18 candidates for the Legislature – both Republicans and Democrats – who were using their state-issued emails in contact information for their campaigns. Valley News Live took a look at both legislators and every other candidate in the state registered with the Secretary of State and found over 80 candidates who had done the same thing (full list here).
Today’s story makes two important points.
First, that using a state email for campaigns is specifically illegal. The Secretary of State’s office has said that using a state email address as a point of contact isn’t in and of itself illegal, but the moment any campaign-related emails are sent to or from that address a violation has occurred. So, it’s hard to imagine how the use of a state email address to register a campaign could not result in a violation.
Still, Cass County State’s Attorney Birch Burdick (who inspired this scrutiny by going after Fargo City Council candidate John Strand for his use of a projector to cast a campaign message on a city water tower) insists that when he used his state email address to register his campaign it wasn’t a violation.
Not sure I follow that logic. If you email your campaign filing, it’s a political purpose and a violation. Period. It’s worth noting that Burdick has subsequently removed his state email address from his campaign information.
The second point, speaking to legislators specifically, is that while they are allowed to pay a fee which allows them to use their state email/computers for personal things they are still not allowed to use them for political purposes. Some legislators had claimed that paying the fee gave them cover, but that doesn’t seem to be the case according to Valley News Live’s reporting. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
North Dakota’s top oil regulator, Lynn Helms, told legislators yesterday that the federal government wants to try and force all drilling permits for North Dakota’s oil fields through the federal Fish and Wildlife Office.
The federal government holds oil production rights that are scattered across western North Dakota. Helms believes federal regulators can slow down drilling outside the federally owned national grasslands and the Theodore Roosevelt National Park.
Helms says the federal Fish and Wildlife Service wants to control the issuance of drilling permits because of potential harm to some protected birds.
Here’s audio of Helms speaking to legislators, saying “the desire of US Fish and Wildlife is to force every drilling permit through their office.”
Of course, the environmentalists say Helms is just fear mongering. He’s seeing “a boogeyman behind every oil derrick,” according to Wayne Schaefer of the Sierra Club.
Helms is also warning of the potential of a bird which exists in western North Dakota being declared endangered, something Helms says could derail development of roads critical to oil development.
It’s called the Sprague’s Pipit (PIP’-it). North Dakota Department of Mineral Resources director Lynn Helms says the bird lives throughout western North Dakota – and it doesn’t cross roads.
Helms says the Sprague’s Pipit may be listed as an endangered species under federal law — and if it is, oil industry road building in western North Dakota could grind to a halt.
These are frightening developments given, as I pointed out yesterday, how dependent North Dakota’s state budget is on the windfall of tax revenue driven both directly and indirectly by the oil boom. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

My name is Tara and I am the founder of Scrunchie Time. I started Scrunchie Time in early 2020.
When I first got my smartwatch I was having a serious reaction to the strap that came with the watch. My wrist was red, itchy and my skin was very irritated by the silicone.
And that's why I started Scrunchie Time. I want to help other women who have/had the same reaction to their smartwatch strap (and maybe some other cheeky benefits too)
In my spare time I love to spend time with friends, hang out with my dog Bear, watch netflix, learn vietnamese and listen to podcasts.

The first known interstellar meteor hit Earth in 2014, U.S. officials say
U.S. officials confirmed that a space rock that streaked through the skies off the coast of Papua New Guinea in January 2014 was, in fact, an incredibly rare meteor that originated from beyond the solar system.
This meteor is known as CNEOS 2014-01-08. It crash-landed on Jan. 8, 2014, but not until last week did government officials confirm the origin of this space rock.
The meteor was determined as "interstellar" or from beyond the solar system by Amir Siraj in 2019. At the time, Siraj, a student at Harvard University, worked to determine his findings with his academic adviser, Abraham Loeb, a professor of science at the university.
Siraj wrote about this process for Scientific American. He was studying what was at the time considered the first-known interstellar meteor called Oumuamua, which was identified in October 2017.
Though he and Loeb were confident in their findings about CNEOS 2014-01-08, and that it predates Oumuamua by three years, scientific journals refused to publish their report because their data came from a NASA database that doesn't disclose certain information.
Last Wednesday, a memo by the U.S. Space Force Lt. Gen. John Shaw was tweetedofficially confirming their findings and said "that the velocity estimate reported to NASA is sufficiently accurate to indicate an interstellar trajectory."
Officials used Siraj and Loeb's findings as well as additional information pulled from the U.S. Department of Defense to make this confirmation official.
The 2014 meteor is now one of three such interstellar meteors that have been confirmed to date, alongside Oumuamua and the interstellar comet Borisov, Siraj wrote inScientific American.
Siraj said he hopes more follow up research into such interstellar meteors can be done to learn even more about them.He wrote: "We are currently investigating whether a mission to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Manus Island, in the hopes of finding fragments of the 2014 meteor, could be fruitful or even possible."

Trump: The Reality TV Years
I can't say I ever expected to be writing about Donald Trump, Republican frontrunner, back when I was writing about Donald Trump, reality-show guy.
It's one of the weirdest things about having someone who's so well-known in one arena move into another: in most news organizations, the people who have followed Trump the most closely for the longest time cover television or maybe business, but not politics. And in the case of covering television, which is what I did, they weren't covering him exactly, they were covering "him" — the him who sat at a boardroom table and fired people for underperforming at a lemonade stand or a charity auction, or the him who refereed fights between Star Jones and NeNe Leakes from The Real Housewives Of Atlanta. How much of that "him" is actually him?
Well, that depends on where you come down on the entire eternal argument about reality shows and how closely they resemble anyone's true self.
As I told Ari Shapiro during a conversation today on All Things Considered, I can't speak to that with Trump, both because I've never met him and because I'm a cultural critic and not a political commentator, so I couldn't give you an opinion on Trump as a candidate even if I wanted to.
I can tell you that on television, in his role as business guru, his priority was punishing incompetence, but also weakness and disloyalty. In fact, in the first season of The Apprentice, he fired a woman for speaking up to agree with him that her team had been "duped" in a task when the rest of her team was insisting they hadn't been, because she'd shown disloyalty. She'd been right, according to him, but it was wrong to say so — to speak up and be right — when it meant not standing by her team.
My experience with getting to know other people who have been on reality shows is that what you get on TV is a sometimes a limited view of them, but it's still them, sort of like only knowing someone in the context of work and learning they're very different at home. You don't necessarily learn the person's true heart, but you learn what they've chosen to put forward, and you can ask yourself why. One difference, of course, is that if you're a young attorney or pharmaceutical sales rep who's never been on television before and likely will never be again, your control over the narrative — over the vision of you that merges — is really bounded by your choices in behavior. If you're Donald Trump and you're an executive producer of your show (as he was), and if you're the franchise, as it were, your control is probably far more substantial.
Here's what's interesting to think about, for me: How different is the act of trying to establish who someone really is from a reality show from trying to establish who he or she is from a campaign? If anything, the mechanisms in politics are more sophisticated. The stakes are higher. The calculations are more exact. The budgets are huge. So perhaps the question isn't really how much you can learn about Donald Trump from The Apprentice, but how much you can learn about anyone from watching him or her run for office.

Shaheen, Murphy, Van Hollen, Kaine Issue Statement Expressing Concern About the Escalation of Violence in Lebanon
(Washington, DC) – U.S. Senators Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH), Chris Murphy (D-CT), Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) and Tim Kaine (D-VA), senior members of the U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee, released the following joint statement regarding the deteriorating situation in Lebanon:
“Over the past few weeks, there has been a concerning escalation of violence in Lebanon, which has resulted in the deaths of hundreds, the displacement of over one million civilians and unacceptable attacks on United Nations peacekeepers.
“There is no question that Israel has a right to defend itself from terrorism on its northern border and that Hezbollah is a terrorist organization whose actions have led to Lebanese, American and Israeli deaths. By preventing the formation of a functioning government, Hezbollah has exacerbated an economic crisis and perpetuated the suffering of everyday Lebanese citizens. We also assert firmly that Iran must be stopped from supplying Hezbollah with resources and weapons, which is essential to securing peace on the border and ensuring that Israelis in the north can return safely to their homes.
“At the same time, the Israel Defense Forces have an obligation to conduct their operations in a way that limits civilian harm and does not impede humanitarian access. We also strongly condemn the attacks against United Nations peacekeepers who operate in Lebanon under UN Security Council resolutions 1701 and 2749. Peacekeepers must be allowed to fulfill their mission of ensuring peace along the Blue Line.
“We must work towards de-escalation and implementation of UN Security Council Resolution 1701 in Lebanon while also urging all parties involved to secure a ceasefire in Gaza and hostage release deal. We must do all we can to prevent further civilian casualties, dangerous destabilization and expansion of this conflict into a full-out war.” | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Blue Endeavors: Underwater Science, High School Students, & Ocean Conservation with Quantifiable Results
Motivated high school ocean advocates learn research diving before completing projects like restoring coral reefs & applying technology to study giant mantas.
The world’s oceans are facing many problems from ocean temperatures rising and acidification to micoplastics and overfishing. Many people are not connected to the ocean enough to care, are not aware of the challenges, do not know how to make a difference, or are simply overwhelmed into inaction. This is the problem Blue Endeavors is addressing by connecting everyone, especially high school students, to the ocean so they make the small changes in their lives that as a whole will make a difference. Along the way we identify, train and mentor the next generation of leaders in this field.
"EVEN IF YOU NEVER HAVE THE CHANCE TO SEE OR TOUCH THE OCEAN, THE OCEAN TOUCHES YOU WITH EVERY BREATH YOU TAKE, EVERY DROP OF WATER YOU DRINK, EVERY BITE YOU CONSUME. EVERYONE, EVERYWHERE IS INEXTRICABLY CONNECTED TO AND UTTERLY DEPENDENT UPON THE EXISTENCE OF THE SEA."- DR. SYLVIA EARLE
Blue Endeavors has trained more than 300 high school students in research scuba diving over the past five years, and have been working with these students on real world projects like coral reef restoration where we grew a new reef by attaching rehabilitated staghorn coral from nurseries we cleaned and populated. We are also completing underwater survey work and creating a new database using facial recognition software for biologists studying giant mantas.
Thus far, we have run this program in relatively affluent private schools (with the participation of some subsidized individuals). Our proposed project would bring this successful program to a more economically and ethnically diverse population. We will establish partnerships with new public high school and funds would support students with an economic need.
The partnership between Blue Endeavors and a high school draws on each organization’s strengths and results in a program that has many elements in common with project-based learning in an engaging and substantial STEM program. The program also integrates research scuba diving techniques and emphasizes conservation-focused scientific research from the very beginning of the students’ diving journey. The program also instructs students in the importance of protecting the natural world, which students come to appreciate on a new level through intellectual work and direct experience. Many former students have followed through on their environmental values in a myriad of ways, including further participation with Blue Endeavor's conservation-focused research diving.

This age is the best suited for enhancements in vocabulary in children. It makes them understand the world better and as they start to grow they tend to understand why things in the world are as they are.
In fact, we have books that feed into the curiosity that develops in children at this age and help them understand every aspect of life in a more illustrative, detailed and entertaining way. Books that engage them more towards learning more aspects about the world we live in.
Our books range from quirky books that make math fun to amazing stories that aim to make children lifelong readers with interesting plots and memorable characters.
This age group has a wide range of reading abilities, from those just beginning to read independently, to those who can read Harry Potter. However, most of the books in this collection are classified as chapter books. As a family read-aloud, these books would be ideal for newly independent readers as well as older children.

Psychology Professor Named President-Elect of the Eastern Psychological Association - Seton Hall University
Amy Hunter, Ph.D., professor of psychology within the College of Arts Sciences, was recently named the president-elect of the Eastern Psychological Association (EPA), the oldest regional psychological association in the United States.
Hunter will serve a three-year term including one year as president elect – which began on June 1 – and two years as president. During the term, Hunter looks to diversify the leadership and membership of the organization and also advance awareness around the importance of sleep and its relevance to many areas of psychology – one of Hunter’s own areas of research.
“For over 20 years, I have participated in the EPA in a variety of ways including serving on its Board of Directors, chairing symposia, presenting research at its annual meeting, and more,” said Hunter. “I'm honored to have the opportunity to represent one of the preeminent regional psychology organizations, and look forward to helping the EPA continue to achieve its goals as a venue for the presentation of research and providing professional development opportunities for students.”
Already a month into her role as president-elect, Hunter will shadow the current organizational leaders over the next year before officially taking on her role as president in June 2023. “I want to learn as much as I can from my colleagues, who also understand the responsibility of serving this organization which is a professional home for so many psychologists,” reflected Hunter.
Founded in 1896, the EPA aims to advance the science and profession of psychology through the dissemination of professional information about the field. Most notably, the organization brings together psychologists from every discipline during its annual meeting, where its members present the latest advances in their professional and scientific work.
However, the meeting is not only a venue for professional psychologists, but for students as well. As advisor of Psi Chi, Seton Hall’s chapter of the International Honor Society in Psychology for undergraduate students, Hunter has herself facilitated the attendance of Seton Hall students to the meeting, seeing “the transformative effect of conference participation on their professional development.”
Hunter added that her multi-layer involvement with the EPA has given her a broad perspective on its functioning and activities, which will inform her role as a leader in the organization. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Hinako Shirai (CV: Yuki Takada)
The game’s protagonist. She was getting attention as an up-and-coming talented ballet dancer; however, one year ago, she was supposed to compete in a contest that would have been her gateway to success as a ballet dancer, but she had to give it up after injuring her foot. Since then, she hasn’t been able to dance due to the aftereffects. Her heart is currently sealed, but she continues believing that her foot will heal one day, and that she’ll be able to dance once again.
As the gloomy days go by for Hinako, she meets two girls who give her a mysterious power. This magical power transforms her into a “Reflector,” and gives her the power to fight. Hinako continues fighting with the selfish hopes of her foot healing by fighting as a Reflector, but she begins to wonder about who she is fighting and why she is fighting. Her fight eventually changes the world.
When transformed as a Reflecter, Hinako’s appearances change. Her hair turns blonde and she also gets different colored eyes. She fights using a glass-like sword.
